Housing first and emergency department utilization among homeless individuals with mental illness in Vancouver
Creators: name: Tan De Bibiana, Jason
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of Housing First at 12 months on emergency department (ED) use among homeless individuals with mental illness in Vancouver. METHODS: Homeless individuals with mental illness enrolled in the At Home/Chez Soi study were randomly assigned to a Housing First model of housing and support or Usual Care. ED data from St. Paul’s Hospital and Mount Saint Joseph Hospital were linked for 382 participants in Vancouver. Negative binomial regression was used to compare the Rate of Visits and logistic regression was used to compare the Presenting Complaints, Discharge Diagnosis, and Disposition for visits from participants in Housing First or Usual Care. RESULTS: 60% of all participants visited the ED at least once at 12 months and the annual Rate of Visits was 3.32 (SD=6.21). After adjusting for the baseline rate and other potential confounders, the Rate of Visits at 12 months was 0.66 times less (95% CI: 0.47-0.93) for Housing First participants compared to Usual Care. For all participants at 12 months, mental health and substance use-related reasons accounted for 30% of Presenting Complaints and 34% of Discharge Diagnoses. The majority of visits (87%) resulted in discharge from the ED, including 9% left against medical advice or without being seen, and 13% resulted in care advance. For Housing First participants compared to Usual Care at 12 months, the odds ratio for a mental health and substance use-related Presenting Complaint (OR=0.98, 95% CI: 0.64-1.51) or Discharge Diagnosis (OR=1.18, 95% CI: 0.75-1.86) was not statistically significant, nor was the odds ratio for a care advance Disposition (OR=1.21, 95% CI: 0.68-2.15). CONCLUSION: This study observed lower ED utilization for Housing First, consistent with findings from previous evaluations in other settings, which suggests that this model should be expanded for homeless individuals with mental illness similar to those recruited in this study. This study also observed that many participants experienced acute mental health issues resulting in visits to the ED, and visited the ED without receiving care, which suggests there are opportunities to improve care for this population in the ED and other settings.

description: We compute, for $t \bar t$ production at the LHC and at the Tevatron, several charge asymmetries to NLO QCD, including also the electromagnetic and weak-interaction corrections. We calculate these asymmetries both inclusively and with additional kinematic cuts and compare our results, where possible, with recent experimental results and with SM predictions. The $t \bar t$ asymmetries induce also corresponding asymmetries for the charged leptons from semileptonic top-quark decay. Although these asymmetries are, in the SM, smaller than the corresponding ones for top quarks, they are expected to be measurable quite precisely. In fact, measurement of a lepton asymmetry in $\ell$ + jets events was reported by the D$\emptyset$ and CDF experiments. We analyze and compute to NLO in the gauge couplings leptonic charge asymmetries for dileptonic and semileptonic $\ttbar$ events, with and without acceptance cuts, at the Tevatron and the LHC.

Il ruolo del confronto nella critica artistica

description: The topic of this paper is comparison and classification among artworks. In the first section, I underline the importance of comparison in art criticism, as acknowledged by contemporary philosophers such as Sibley, Vaida and D’Angelo. In the second section, I analyze the nature of comparison as treated by Eighteen century British empiricists such as Hume and Gerard, who recognized, implicitly or explicitly, the existence of two levels of comparison, one involving sensibility and the other relying on reasoning and leading to classification among artworks and species of beauty. In the third and last chapter, I return to the recent analytical debate (Pratt, Vermazen, Dickie and Carroll) and establish both the limits of classification and the real point of comparison, which amounts to refine our taste and achieve a deeper understanding of artworks.

description: The chronological proximity of the publication of Gerard’s and Hume’s aesthetic essays gives rise to a delicate question of interpretation which casts doubt on Gerard’s influence on his master. This paper will demonstrate how their different concepts of taste (the former still talking about “faculties”, the latter about “sentiment”) and, consequently, the role of judgment justify the hypothesis that Gerard did not affect Hume’s theory of aesthetic evaluation.

The arrangement of the different Fe-valence states, determined with bond-valence-sum analysis, corresponds to a stacking of charged Fe bilayers, in contrast to the polar bilayers previously suggested. This arrangement is supported by an analysis of x-ray magnetic circular dichroism spectra, which also evidences a strong charge-spin coupling. The non-polar bilayers are inconsistent with charge order based ferroelectricity.

description: Recently, inspired by Eddington's theory, an alternative gravity called Eddington-inspired Born-Infeld gravity was proposed by Ba$\tilde{\text{n}}$ados and Ferreira. It is equivalent to Einstein's general relativity in vacuum, but deviates from it when matter is included. Interestingly, it seems that the cosmological singularities are prevented in this theory. Based on the new theory, we investigate a thick brane model with a scalar field presenting in the five-dimensional background. A domain wall solution is obtained, and further, we find that at low energy the four-dimensional Einstein gravity is recovered on the brane. Moreover, the stability of gravitational perturbations is ensured in this model.

description: Hadronic form factors for the rare weak transitions $Λ_{b}\rightarrowΛ^{(*)}$ are calculated using a nonrelativistic quark model. The form factors are extracted in two ways. An analytic extraction using single component wave functions (SCA) with the quark current being reduced to its nonrelativistic Pauli form is employed in the first method. In the second method, the form factors are extracted numerically using the full quark model wave function (MCN) with the full relativistic form of the quark current. Although there are differences between the two sets of form factors, both sets satisfy the relationships expected from the heavy quark effective theory (HQET). Differential decay rates, branching ratios and forward-backward asymmetries (FBAs) are calculated for the dileptonic decays $Λ_{b}\rightarrowΛ^{(*)}\ell^{+}\ell^{-}$, for transitions to both ground state and excited daughter baryons. Inclusion of the long distance contributions from charmonium resonances significantly enhances the decay rates. In the MCN model the $Λ(1600)$ mode is the dominant mode in the $μ$ channel when charmonium resonances are considered; the $Λ(1520)$ mode is also found to have a comparable branching ratio to that of the ground state in the $μ$ channel.

description: This article examines the complex relationship between mortuary landscapes and human activity in southwest Messenia during the Middle and Late Helladic periods (c. 2050–1190 BCE). Using Geographic Information Systems (GIS) analyses, the study investigates the spatial distribution and factors influencing the placement of tumuli and tholos tombs in the Messenian landscape. The results reveal distinct functions of MH tumuli as visible markers on the landscape, forming a network of landmarks connecting communities with shared values and beliefs. In contrast, LH I–II tholoi were strategically placed along movement routes, marking areas of interaction and control, or atop pre-existing MH tumuli, also reflecting competing ideologies and a shift in symbolic power. During LH III, tholoi were located closer to settlements, emphasizing the social significance of political and territorial motivations. The study highlights the agency of mortuary landscapes in shaping cultural narratives and underscores the role of geopolitical control over land in selecting burial sites. The integration of GIS analyses enriches our understanding of past societies' perception of death and their connection to the landscape.

description: A basic problem in the relativistic quantum Hamilton-Jacobi theory is to understand whether it may admit superluminal solutions. Here we consider the averaging of the speed on a period of the oscillating term which is similar to Dirac's averaging of the oscillating part of the free electron's speed. Such an averaging solves the problem of getting the $\hbar\to 0$ limit of the speed of the free particle, and leads to solutions that, depending on the integration constants, may be superluminal.

Contaminant intrusion in water distribution systems : advanced modelling approaches
Creators: name: Mansour Rezaei Fumani, Saheb
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Since exposure to contaminants may have direct adverse impacts on public health, contaminant intrusion has been recognized as one of the top priority in drinking water supply research. Three components must exist to cause contaminant intrusion into a water distribution system. These include the availability of source(s) of contaminant(s) around a water distribution system, the existence of driving forces (low/negative pressure) to make a contaminant enter into a water distribution system, and the presence of pathway(s) through which contaminant(s) intrude into a water distribution system (WDS). Exposure assessment is the most challenging part as location of contaminant intrusion, rate of intrusion, and the fate of contaminants within WDS need to be estimated accurately. In this dissertation, first, common uncertainty analysis techniques are discussed in the context of conservativeness, execution time, ease of formulation, and complexity. Second, a fuzzyrule based model has been developed to identify contaminant intrusion potential in a WDS. The potential of contaminant intrusion has been determined by integrating the potentials for contaminant sources existence, driving forces, and pathways. Third, a novel ingress model has been developed for more realistic estimation of intrusion rate by taking into account the effects of surrounding soil on intrusion rate. Coupled with an Eulerian-based transient hydraulic model, a Lagrangian transient water quality model is developed to predict the fate of the contaminant throughout a WDS. The proposed models are applied to case studies available in the literature to investigate the applicability of the models. The proposed models enhance the reliability and safety of WDSs by improving the prediction ability of the existing modelling tools.

description: A line defect on a metallic surface induces standing waves in the electronic local density of states (LDOS). Asymptotically far from the defect, the wave number of the LDOS oscillations at the Fermi energy is usually equal to the distance between nesting segments of the Fermi contour, and the envelope of the LDOS oscillations shows a power-law decay as moving away from the line defect. Here, we theoretically analyze the LDOS oscillations close to a line defect on the surface of the topological insulator Bi2Te3, and identify an important pre-asymptotic contribution with wave number and decay characteristics markedly different from the asymptotic contributions. Wave numbers characterizing the pre-asymptotic LDOS oscillations are in good agreement with recent data from scanning tunneling microscopy experiments [Phys. Rev. Lett. 104, 016401 (2010)].

This provides the first examples of non-standard CAT(0) model spaces for simple Lie groups. On the other hand, we classify all continuous non-elementary actions of ${\rm Isom}(\mathbf{H}^{n})$ on the infinite-dimensional real hyperbolic space. It turns out that they are in correspondence with the exotic model spaces that we construct.

The effects of strenuous exercise on cardiovascular function in healthy humans
Creators: name: Coté, Anita Theresa
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2014

description: RATIONALE: Strenuous exercise has been shown to elicit transient reductions in ventricular systolic and diastolic function, as well as impaired autonomic function. The effects of training status and sex on the development of these acute alterations are not known. The aim of these studies was to examine vascular adjustments, cardiac mechanics and autonomic function as the result of strenuous exercise in healthy, endurance-trained (ET) and normally active (NA), males and females. Statistical significance was set at p < 0.05. The first investigation explored sex differences in the cardiovascular response to an ultra-marathon in 25 runners. Ventricular function was reduced similarly in men and women. Novel associations of life-time ultra-marathons and degree of longitudinal strain were found, demonstrating the absence of cumulative stress on the heart with long-term prolonged strenuous exercise. The second investigation assessed ventricular function following high-intensity interval exercise (HIT) in 39 men and women. Changes in cardiac mechanics were not differentiated by training status, however, lower baseline arterial stiffness was associated with twist augmentation. Men demonstrated greater reductions in contractility and higher arterial elastance post-exercise than women. The third investigation assessed autonomic function following HIT and orthostatic stress in 33 men and women. Throughout the intervention, women displayed greater strain, strain rate, and baroreflex sensitivity, but there were no interactions of condition by sex. Autonomic function decreased to a greater degree in ET, but also improved most rapidly in recovery. Thus, it would appear that the cardiac and autonomic stability of ET and women during an orthostatic challenge is not compromised in the face of HIT. The fourth investigation analyzed post-exercise hypotension (PEH) following HIT in 21 individuals. Hypotension occurred similarly in all individuals however, men experienced greater reductions in stroke volume. These findings suggest men engage a different mechanism of PEH compared to women. The fifth investigation explored cognitive function in recovery from HIT. Cognition was improved post-exercise and persisted for four hours post-exercise. SUMMARY: Together, these studies provide novel findings pertaining to the effects of sex and training status on the cardiovascular responses to strenuous exercise.

description: Recent experiments have demonstrated the ability to optically cool a macroscopic mechanical oscillator to its quantum ground state by means of dynamic backaction. Such experiments allow quantum mechanics to be tested with mesoscopic objects, and represent an essential step toward quantum optical memories, transducers, and amplifiers. Most oscillators considered so far are rigidly connected to their thermal environment, fundamentally limiting their mechanical Q-factors and requiring cryogenic precooling to liquid helium temperatures. Here we demonstrate parametric feedback cooling of a laser-trapped nanoparticle which is entirely isolated from the thermal bath. The lack of a clamping mechanism provides robust decoupling from internal vibrations and makes it possible to cool the nanoparticle in all degrees of freedom by means of a single laser beam. Compared to laser-trapped microspheres, nanoparticles have the advantage of higher resonance frequencies and lower recoil heating, which are favorable conditions for quantum ground state cooling

Unified contraction algorithm for multi-baryon correlators on the lattice

description: We propose a novel algorithm for calculating multi-baryon correlation functions on the lattice. By considering the permutation of quarks (Wick contractions) and color/spinor contractions simultaneously, we construct a unified index list for the contraction where the redundancies in the original contraction are eliminated. We find that a significant reduction in the computational cost of correlators is achieved, e.g., by a factor of 192 for $^3$H and $^3$He nuclei, and a factor of 20736 for the $^4$He nucleus, without assuming isospin symmetry. A further reduction is possible by exploiting isospin symmetry, and/or interchange symmetries associated with sink baryons, if such symmetries exist. Extensions for systems with hyperons are presented as well.

description: If quark stars exist, they may be enveloped in thin electron layers (electron seas), which uniformly surround the entire star. These layers will be affected by the magnetic fields of quark stars in such a way that the electron seas would transmit hydromagnetic cyclotron waves, as studied in this paper. Particular attention is devoted to vortex hydrodynamical oscillations of the electron sea. The frequency spectrum of these oscillations is derived in analytic form. If the thermal X-ray spectra of quark stars are modulated by vortex hydrodynamical vibrations, the thermal spectra of compact stars, foremost central compact objects (CCOs) and X-ray dim isolated neutron stars (XDINSs), could be used to verify the existence of these vibrational modes observationally. The central compact object 1E 1207.4-5209 appears particularly interesting in this context, since its absorption features at 0.7 keV and 1.4 keV can be comfortably explained in the framework of the hydro-cyclotron oscillation model.

Standard Model False Vacuum Inflation: Correlating the Tensor-to-Scalar Ratio to the Top Quark and Higgs Boson masses

description: For a narrow band of values of the top quark and Higgs boson masses, the Standard Model Higgs potential develops a false minimum at energies of about $10^{16}$ GeV, where primordial Inflation could have started in a cold metastable state. A graceful exit to a radiation-dominated era is provided, e.g., by scalar-tensor gravity models. We pointed out that if Inflation happened in this false minimum, the Higgs boson mass has to be in the range $126.0 \pm 3.5$ GeV, where ATLAS and CMS subsequently reported excesses of events. Here we show that for these values of the Higgs boson mass, the inflationary gravitational wave background has be discovered with a tensor-to-scalar ratio at hand of future experiments. We suggest that combining cosmological observations with measurements of the top quark and Higgs boson masses represents a further test of the hypothesis that the Standard Model false minimum was the source of Inflation in the Universe.

The archaeology of exclusion: repatriation, whiteness, and a lost daughter named Carrie
Creators: name: Plantzos, Dimitris
Publisher: name: National and Kapodistrian University of Athens
Year: 2023
Subjects: Crypto-coloniality; Parthenon marbles; repatriation;

description: In this paper, I discuss the notion of “repatriation” of antiquities that have been illicitly excavated and exported, against the backdrop of Greece’s attempts to achieve their return. Taking the British Museum Caryatid as my primary case study, I survey recent Greek theatre plays and children’s storybooks in order to examine how the stolen statue is invariably portrayed as the nation’s missing “daughter” or “sister”, suffering in solitary exile and eagerly awaiting “her” return. Based on this discussion, I proceed to claim that the repatriation narrative serves as a means to reconfirm Greece’s whiteness, and the Greek nation’s rightful place as part of the West. Employing the methodological tools of coloniality and crypto-coloniality, as well as the parallel modern example of Egypt, I argue that it is through such attempts at partial representation that political communities in the periphery of the West imagine themselves into being.

description: We investigate the strong coupling regime of a linear $x$-$x$ coupled harmonic oscillator system, by performing a direct diagonalization of the hamiltonian. It is shown that the $x$-$x$ coupled hamiltonian can be equivalently described by a Mach-Zehnder-type interferometer with a quadratic unitary operation in each of its arms. We show a sharp transition of the unitary operation from an elliptical phase rotator to an elliptical squeezer as the coupling gets stronger, which leads to the continuous generation of entanglement, even for a significantly thermal state, in the ultra-strong coupled regime. It is also shown that this critical regime cannot be achieved by a classical Hookian coupling. Finally, the effect of a finite-temperature environment is analyzed, showing that entanglement can still be generated from a thermal state in the ultra-strong coupled regime, but is destroyed rapidly.
