description: The availability of psychometrically sound instruments for the assessment of Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) is indispensable for clinical and scientific work with individuals suffering from trauma-related distress. The aim of the present study was to translate the Post-Traumatic Diagnostic Scale for DSM-5 (PDS-5) into German and to evaluate its psychometric properties as well as convergent, discriminant, and factorial validity. The authorized German translation of the PDS-5 was completed by 270 patients admitted to specialized outpatient trauma clinics. Of these, 57.8% completed the PDS for a second time (mean time between assessments was 12.0 days). In order to examine convergent and discriminant validity of the PDS-5, the Post-traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist for DSM-5 as well as Patient Health Questionnaire subscales assessing depression (PHQ-9), somatization (PHQ-15), and Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD-7) were applied. The PDS-5 total score showed excellent internal consistency (α = .91) and re-test reliability (rho = .84). Convergent validity was supported by a strong correlation with the total score of the Post-traumatic Stress Disorder Checklist for DSM-5 (PCL-5; rho = .91). Correlations with Patient Health Questionnaire subscales of depression (rho = .81), anxiety (rho = .72), and somatization (rho = .65) were significantly lower (all p In summary, our results indicate that the German PDS-5 translation provides valid and reliable information concerning both PTSD severity and diagnosis. The Post-traumatic Diagnostic Scale for DSM-5 (PDS-5) is one of the most frequently applied self-rating scales for assessing PTSD severity.This study indicates that the German PDS-5 version provides valid and reliable information concerning both PTSD severity and diagnosis.

This article is based upon original research conducted at The National Archives of the United Kingdom in London. Specifically, the analysis is derived from a set of 11 files contained within the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO) records of diplomatic correspondence with British agents in the Gulf. The documents contained within the files cover a wide array of official and personal correspondence between British officials in London and Manama and with leading Bahraini figures, including the Ruler, Sheikh Issa bin Salman Al Khalifa. The originality of the files lies in the behind-the-scenes detail of the negotiations that culminated in the formal dismissal of the Iranian claim to Bahrain as well as in the leading role of the key Bahraini protagonists in setting the stage for their formal declaration of independence in 1971. Thus, the files provide extensive context to the resolution of a dispute that has, at times, been resurrected by revisionists in Iran, and illustrate that such attempts to foment instability have no basis in historical fact.

description: Purpose: This study described the clinical experiences of patients with a total laryngectomy (TL) during the COVID-19 pandemic and identified changes in communication, tracheostoma care, and heat–moisture exchange (HME) use that were recommended or self-implemented.Method: An online survey addressing the study aims was completed by 173 people with a TL who live in the United States. The survey was open from July 5 to August 10, 2020.Results: In-person clinic visits, appointment cancellations, and contact from their speech-language pathologists (SLPs) were reported by 42%, 19%, and 54% of the TL respondents, respectively. At clinic visits, 78% were required to wear a mask over their nose/mouth, and 73% were required to wear a mask over their tracheostoma. Masks, gloves, and face shields worn by the SLP at these visits were reported by 84%, 82%, and 70% of the TL patients, respectively. Alaryngeal communication changes were recommended by the SLP for 7%–18% of TL patients, depending on their method of communication, whereas 43%–45% implemented changes on their own. Changes in tracheostoma care and HME use were recommended by the SLP for 27% and 21% of the TL respondents, respectively, whereas 54% and 47% made changes on their own.Conclusions: Individuals with a TL will require in-person care even during a pandemic, as reflected in this study. Many had not been contacted by their SLP or otolaryngologist about TL guidelines that were becoming available. Notably, larger percentages of TL patients reported self-initiated changes to their communication, tracheostoma care, and HME use because of the pandemic than their SLP had advised. The types of communication changes varied in part, depending on the method of alaryngeal speech a respondent used.

description: We experimentally and theoretically study self-phase modulation by Kerr effect in a liquid filled hollow core photonic crystal fiber. We perform a complete characterization of the linear optical properties of the hollow core photonic band gap fiber filled with deuterated acetone to determine all the characteristics of the propagation mode. The nonlinear coefficient of the fiber is determined by fitting the output spectra broadened by self-phase modulation with a new analytical expression giving the spectra of a secant hyperbolic pulse transmitted through a Kerr media. The experiment allows a precise determination of the nonlinear index change of acetone-d6 equal to (1.15$\pm$0.17)x10-19 m2W-1.

Parameter-space dependence in a stochastic dual dynamic programming model of a multireservoir hydropower system
Creators: name: Mitchell, Kyle Terrence
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Stochastic Dual Dynamic Programming is a heuristic stochastic optimization algorithm used to analyze multistage decision making problems with stochastic variables through Benders decomposition and solvable linear approximations. Benders cuts are utilized to develop a piecewise linear approximation of a 'benefit-to-go' or future value function at each stage. This thesis assesses BC Hydro's Columbia and Peace River hydroelectric network representation in a multistage stochastic optimization problem with a finite planning horizon. The model attempts to maximize the 'water value' across the MCA, GMS, and ARD facilities over a duration of five years. Existing model parameter-space is heavily restricted due to the use of static market prices and load demands. Changes have been proposed to expand on the current parameter-space pertaining to inflow dependent market electricity prices through the implementation of seasonally forecasted price and load blocks. Preliminary results indicate the existing model implementation does not provide sufficient parameter-space coverage with respect to market prices, resulting in possible over-estimations of water value as the model approaches convergence.
Effective Privacy Amplification for Secure Classical Communications

description: We study the practical effectiveness of privacy amplification for classical key-distribution schemes. We find that in contrast to quantum key distribution schemes, the high fidelity of the raw key generated in classical systems allow the users to always sift a secure shorter key if they have an upper bound on the eavesdropper probability to correctly guess the exchanged key-bits. The number of privacy amplification iterations needed to achieve information leak of 10^-8 in existing classical communicators is 2 or 3 resulting in a corresponding slowdown 4 to 8. We analyze the inherent tradeoff between the number of iterations and the security of the raw key. This property which is unique to classical key distribution systems render them highly useful for practical, especially for noisy channels where sufficiently low quantum bit error ratios are difficult to achieve.

description: We first present a non-resonant description to charmonium-like structure $Y(4360)$ in the $ψ(2S)π^+π^-$ invariant mass spectrum of the $e^+e^-\to ψ(2S)π^+π^-$ process. The $Y(4360)$ structure is depicted well by the interference effect of the production amplitudes of $e^{+} e^{-} \to ψ(2S) π^+ π^-$ via the intermediate charmonia $ψ(4160)/ψ(4415)$ and direct $e^+e^-$ annihilation into $ψ(2S)π^+ π^-$. This fact shows that $Y(4360)$ is not a genuine resonance, which naturally explains why $Y(4360)$ was only reported in its hidden-charm decay channel $ψ(2S)π^+π^-$ and was not observed in the exclusive open-charm decay channel or $R$-value scan.

Modelling Diffusion Through Environments That Contain Immobile Obstacles: The Short-Time Transient Regime, Anomalous Diffusion and Crowding
Creators: name: Nguiya Passi, Neo
Publisher: name: Université d'Ottawa / University of Ottawa

Subjects: diffusion

anomalous diffusion and crowding

description: The diffusion of a particle in a crowded environment typically proceeds through three regimes: for very short times the particle diffuses freely until it collides with an obstacle for the first time, while for very long times diffusion the motion is Fickian with a diffusion coefficient D that depends on the concentration and type of obstacles present in the system. For intermediate times, the mean-square displacement of the particle often increases approximately as t α , with α < 1, typical of what is generally called anomalous diffusion. However, it is not clear how one can identify or choose a time or displacement interval that would give a reliable estimate of α. In this paper, we use two exact numerical approaches to obtain diffusion data for a simple Lattice Monte Carlo model in both time limits. This allows us to propose an objective definition of the transient regime and a unique value for α. Furthermore, our methodology directly gives us the length scale over which the transient regime switches to the steady-state regime. We test our proposed approach using several types of obstacle systems, and we introduce the novel concept of excess diffusion lengths. Finally, we show that the values of the parameters describing the anomalous transient regime depend on the Monte Carlo moves used to describe the dynamics of the particle, and we propose a new algorithm that correctly models the short time diffusion of a particle on a lattice.

description: A signal-off electrochemiluminescence (ECL) biosensor was developed for the determination of specific sequence of BCR/ABL gene related to chronic myelogenous leukemia based on a mesoporous gold nanoparticle (AuNP)-luminol-silica nanocomposite and the catalytic effect of ferrocene on luminol ECL. Luminol and silica were electrodeposited on the electrode surface and AuNP was deposited on the luminol-silica hybrid film to form the AuNP-luminol-silica nanocomposite film. The AuNP-luminol-silica nanocomposite on the surface provided stable ECL. Ferrocene labeled molecular beacon (Fc-MB) was assembled onto the surface of AuNP-luminol-silica nanocomposite through Au–S bond. After the hybridization of molecular beacon with target DNA, the opening of the stem of Fc-MB caused ferrocene to be away from the electrode surface, which resulted in the decrease of ECL intensity. Accordingly, a signal-off ECL DNA biosensor was developed based on the linear relationship between the reduced ECL intensity and the concentration of the target DNA. Under the selected conditions, the ECL intensity decreased linearly with the logarithm of the concentration of target DNA from 1.0 × 10−15 to 1.0 × 10−9 mol/L with a detection limit of 4.6 × 10−16 mol/L.

description: The antiferromagnetic (AFM) order in the Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) superconducting state is analyzed on the basis of a Ginzburg-Landau theory. To examine the possible AFM-FFLO state in CeCoIn_5, we focus on the incommensurate AFM order characterized by the wave vector Q = Q_{0} \pm q_inc with Q_0 =(π,π,π) and q_inc \parallel [110] or [1-10] in the tetragonal crystal structure. We formulate the two component Ginzburg-Landau theory and investigate the two degenerate incommensurate AFM order. We show that the pinning of AFM moment due to the FFLO nodal planes leads to multiple phases in magnetic fields along [100] or [010]. The phase diagrams for various coupling constants between the two order parameters are shown for the comparison with CeCoIn_5. Experimental results of the NMR and neutron scattering measurements are discussed.

Could the Hercules satellite be a stellar stream in the Milky Way halo?

description: We investigate the possibility that Hercules, a recently discovered Milky Way (MW) satellite, is a stellar stream in the process of formation. This hypothesis is motivated by Hercules' highly elongated shape as well as the measurement of a tentative radial velocity gradient along its body. The application of simple analytical techniques on radial velocity data of its member stars provides tight constraints on the tangential velocity of the system (v_t = -16^{+6}_{-22} km/s, relative to the Galactic Standard of Rest). Combining this with its large receding velocity (145 km/s) and distance (138 kpc) yields an orbit that would have taken Hercules to within 6^{+9}_{-2} kpc of the Galactic centre approximately 0.6 Gyr ago. This very small perigalacticon can naturally explain the violent tidal destruction of the dwarf galaxy in the MW's gravitational potential, inducing its transformation into a stellar stream.

description: The effects of electron interaction on the magnetoconductance of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) are studied within the Hartree approximation. We find that a perpendicular magnetic field leads to a suppression instead of an expected improvement of the quantization. This suppression is traced back to interaction-induced modifications of the band structure leading to the formation of compressible strips in the middle of GNRs. It is also shown that the hard wall confinement combined with electron interaction generates overlaps between forward and backward propagating states, which may significantly enhance backscattering in realistic GNRs. The relation to available experiments is discussed.

When the kernel is smooth, we construct approximate solutions for the wave functions in subcritical, critical and supercritical cases (in terms of the size of the initial data). The validity of the approximation is proved up to Ehrenfest time. For homogeneous kernels, we establish similar results in subcritical and critical cases. Nonlinear superposition principle for two nonlinear wave packets is also considered.

Hypersensitivity of peak flows to clearcut logging in British Columbia’s snow environment
Creators: name: Tsembel, Jangar
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2025

description: The cause of extreme events, such as floods, is often attributed to global warming, overlooking the effects of local drivers induced by human activity. To examine the effect of clearcut logging on peak flows, this study draws heavily on attribution science and the science of causation using recent developments in nonstationary frequency analyses. Small opportunistic control (8.2 km²) and treatment (6.3 km²) watersheds in the snow environment of British Columbia’s interior, located 74 km apart, were paired in the magnitude-frequency domain furthering its applicability to forest hydrology. The peak flow frequency distribution was allowed to change over time by enabling its parameters to change in accordance with climate and land cover covariates. The study revealed that clearcut logging in 43% of the watershed area increased the mean (+46%) and standard deviation (+77%) of peak flows. Consequently, the 20-yr, 50-yr, and 100-yr peak flow events became 7, 10, and 14 times more frequent. Nonstationary modelling indicated larger events having a larger effect on peak flow magnitude and frequency, caused by clearcut logging in a watershed with an inherently mild and concave peak flow frequency curve, typical of snowmelt-driven flood regimes. The temporal and spatial distribution of clearcuts, within the critical mid-elevation zone including south-facing slopes, further accentuated the sensitivity of peak flow response to high cut levels. While snowmelt from cutblocks and roads increased the mean of peak flows, the amplified increase in variability was hypothesized to be caused by synchronized melt from logged and unlogged areas. The study compared conventional methods to a novel approach illustrating the efficacy of causal over non-causal experiments, urging more use of a probabilistic framework in studies of forests and flood relations in watersheds across all sizes and hydroclimate regimes.

description: Risk stratification is the ability of a test or model to separate those at high vs. low risk of disease. There is no risk stratification metric that is in terms of the number of people requiring testing, which would help with considering the benefits, harms, and costs associated with the test and interventions. We introduce the expected number needed to test (NNtest) to identify one more disease case than by randomly selecting people for disease ascertainment. We show that NNtest measures risk stratification, allowing us to decompose NNtest into components that contrast the increase in risk upon testing positive (‘concern’) versus the decrease in risk upon testing negative (‘reassurance’). A graph of the reciprocals of concern vs. reassurance have linear contours of constant NNtest, visualizing the relative importance and tradeoff of each component to better understand the properties of risk thresholds with equal NNtest. We apply NNtest to the controversy over the risk threshold for who should get testing for BRCA1/2 mutations that cause high risks of breast and ovarian cancers. We show that risk thresholds between 0.78% and 5% optimize NNtest. At these thresholds, NNtest≈120 people will require risk-model evaluation to find one more mutation-carrier. However, these thresholds of equal NNtest provide very different concern and reassurance, with 0.78% providing much more reassurance (and thus much less concern) than 5%. Given that genetic testing costs are declining rapidly, the greater reassurance provided by the 0.78% threshold might be deemed more important than the greater concern provided by the 5% threshold.

description: TIM (The Interactive METATOY) is a ray-tracing program specifically tailored towards our research in METATOYs, which are optical components that appear to be able to create wave-optically forbidden light-ray fields. For this reason, TIM possesses features not found in other ray-tracing programs. TIM can either be used interactively or by modifying the openly available source code; in both cases, it can easily be run as an applet embedded in a web page. Here we describe the basic structure of TIM's source code and how to extend it, and we give examples of how we have used TIM in our own research.

description: Additional file 4: Supplementary Fig. 4. Comparison of the O’Henry fruit mesocarp proteome characterized by 2D gel vs 1D gel analysis. (a) Mesocarp proteins from mature and ripe O’Henry fruits assessed by 2D-gels had 164 spots that could be quantified [27]. Among these 164 spots, 43 were identified by mass spectrometry analysis and, therefore, were contrasted with the current proteome under analysis. (b) Among these 43 proteins, 16 had accumulation profiles similar to the ones assessed in the current work (“match”), whereas 27 had different patterns (“did not match”).
Magnetic structure of antiferromagnetic Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov state

description: The properties of incommensurate antiferromagnetic (AFM) order in the Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) state is studied by solving the Bogoliubov-de-Gennes (BdG) equations. The relationship between the electronic structure and the magnetic structure is clarified. We find that the magnetic structure in the AFM-FFLO state includes three cases. (I) In the strongly localized case, the AFM staggered moment is confined into the FFLO nodal planes where the superconducting order parameter vanishes. (II) In the weakly localized case, the AFM staggered moment appears in the whole spatial region, and its magnitude is enhanced around the FFLO nodal planes. (III) In the extended case, the AFM staggered moment is nearly homogeneous and slightly suppressed in the vicinity of FFLO nodal planes. The structure of Bragg peaks in the momentum resolved structure factor is studied in each case. We discuss the possibility of AFM-FFLO state in the heavy fermion superconductor CeCoIn_5 by comparing these results with the neutron scattering data. Experimentally the magnetic structure and its dependence on the magnetic field orientation in the high field superconducting phase of CeCoIn_5 are consistent with the case (II).

description: Persecution, conflict, famine, globalisation, climate change and human right violations continue to forcibly displace millions of people each year. Detaining people whilst immigration applications are processed is a worldwide practice. The United Kingdom (UK) has one of the largest detention estates in Europe. The health and well-being of detainees in UK detention centres has faced increased scrutiny over the last decade. A paucity in the literature was identified, which provided a rationale to conduct this research, which aimed to investigate the lived experience of people who had been held within an immigration detention centre in the UK. The research was framed through the lens of Counselling Psychology, with a particular emphasis on commitment to engaging with issues of social injustice and inequality through both theoretical and practical actions. The study’s methodology was informed by Max van Manen’s hermeneutic phenomenology. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with six people who had previously experienced being detained in a UK Immigration Removal Centre. Emerging themes included: The Violation of Space; Altered Time; Altered Body; Shifting Self and Relationship with the State. The research aims to highlight the experiences of those who have been detained and allow practitioners (Counselling Psychologists and other mental health clinicians) an insight into the impact this experience has on wellbeing. At service level, the research aims to highlight the difficulties detainees face when accessing support and make recommendations for clinical implications and future research.

description: Die Finite-Elemente-Simulation großer inhomogener Strukturen stellt immense Anforderungen an den Modellierungs- und Rechenaufwand. Eine Möglichkeit zur effizienteren Berechnung bieten Homogenisierungsverfahren mittels der FE2-Methode. Die bisherigen Methoden konzentrieren sich dabei vor allem auf die Abbildung von 3D-Körpern, die ähnlich große Abmessungen in allen drei Raumdimensionen aufweisen. Die Abbildung von inhomogenen, insbesondere schubweichen, Balken- und Plattenstrukturen bereitet dagegen erhebliche Probleme. Bei der Berechnung der benötigten Querschnittswerte mit den bisher gängigen Methoden sind vor allem die Schub- und Torsionssteifigkeiten nur schwierig korrekt zu ermitteln, sofern es überhaupt möglich ist. Diese Arbeit greift einen neuartigen Ansatz für ein Homogenisierungsverfahren auf Basis der Irving-Kirkwood-Theorie auf und liefert eine Erweiterung zur Anwendung auf Balken- und Plattenstrukturen, welche die grundlegenden Probleme zur Ermittlung der Schub- und Torsionssteifigkeiten bisheriger Verfahren nicht aufweist. Durch die Möglichkeit der Verwendung minimaler Randbedingungen bei gleichzeitiger Wiederverwendung der bestehenden Homogenisierungsalgorithmen ist zudem die Modellerstellung und die numerische Implementierung der Methode wesentlich einfacher als bisher. Die vorgestellte Theorie beschränkt sich dabei auf materiell und geometrisch lineare Probleme. Der Ansatz zur Ermittlung der Schubsteifigkeiten basiert auf der Annahme eines quadratischen Schubspannungsverlaufs über die Höhe (und Breite beim Balken) für einen Vollquerschnitt, wodurch Querschnittsverwölbungen infolge einer Schubbelastung entstehen. Das Verfahren wird an verschiedenen Vollquerschnitten (homogene und geschichtete Querschnitte sowie weiche Einschlüsse in Längsrichtung) getestet. Die Ergebnisse zeigen eine gute Übereinstimmung mit Referenzwerten aus der Literatur und Vergleichsmodellen.
A scientific framework to assess catchment storage-discharge relation and its functional linkage with climate, geology and topography

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2024

description: Study of cross-site variabilities and similarities of catchment storage-discharge relation provides insights into the drivers and causes of such relation, generalizable to a wide range of climatic and physical settings. In this thesis, two studies were conducted using large-sample hydrology comparative analyses to enhance the understanding of the drivers and causes of the functional relations between catchment storage and discharge. Hydrograph recession analysis was the primary analytical tool in this thesis. It was applied to determine the catchment recession flow dynamics, and to build the mechanistic understanding of the cause of diverse storage-discharge relations observed in different climatic and physical settings. Findings suggest that the nonlinearities of streamflow recession (and that of storage-discharge relation) strongly depend on belowground attributes and slope in rain-dominated medium size catchments, and strongly depend on slope and snowmelt characteristics in snow-dominated medium size catchments. In large catchments (i.e., catchment area larger than 1000 square kilometers), the attributes related to magnitude and timing of input water (e.g., water surplus, aridity index, maximum snow water equivalent) have larger relative influences, than belowground attributes, on streamflow recession dynamics and storage-discharge relation. Meanwhile, the results show that at low flow condition, hillslope bedrock groundwater contribution to main stream may become a major source of low-flow, and its absence or presence determines the functional nonlinearity of recession dynamics and storage-discharge relation. With an increase in the contribution of hillslope bedrock groundwater—relative to riparian groundwater—to low-flow discharge, the nonlinearity of recession hydrograph increases, leading to a higher catchment-scale resistance to streamflow drought during dry periods. The findings expand the understanding of catchment-scale groundwater flow pathways generating low-flow, with implications to identify where and why catchments are vulnerable to drought under prolonged dry periods.

description: The transient response of an intrinsic graphene, which is caused by the ultrafast interband transitions, is studied theoretically for the range of pumping correspondent to the saturated absorption regime. Spectral and temporal dependencies of the photoexcited concentration as well as the transmission and relitive absotption coefficients are considered for mid-IR and visible (or near-IR) spectral regions at different durations of pulse and broadening energies. The characteristic intencities of saturation are calculated and the results are compared with the experimental data measured for the near-IR lasers with a saturable absorber. The negative absorption of a probe radiation during cascade emission of optical phonons is obtained.
