description: We argue that clustering of color sources, leading to the percolation transition, may be the way to achieve deconfinement in heavy ion collisions. The critical density for percolation is related to the effective critical temperature of the thermal bath asociated to the presence of strong color fields inside the percolating cluster. We find that the temperature is rapidity, centrality and energy dependent. We emphasize the similarities of percolation of strings with color glass condensate.

description: We study theoretically and experimentally the spin pumping signals induced by the resonance of canted antiferromagnets with Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction and demonstrate that they can generate easily observable inverse spin-Hall voltages. Using a bilayer of hematite/heavy metal as a model system, we measure at room temperature the antiferromagnetic resonance and an associated inverse spin-Hall voltage, as large as in collinear antiferromagnets. As expected for coherent spin-pumping, we observe that the sign of the inverse spin-Hall voltage provides direct information about the mode handedness as deduced by comparing hematite, chromium oxide and the ferrimagnet Yttrium-Iron Garnet. Our results open new means to generate and detect spin-currents at terahertz frequencies by functionalizing antiferromagnets with low damping and canted moments.

description: We investigate the three-dimensional BCS-BEC crossover in the presence of a Rabi coupling which strongly affects several properties of the system, such as the chemical potential, the pairing gap and the superfluid density. We determine the critical interaction strength, below which the system is normal also at zero temperature. Finally, we calculate the effect of the Rabi coupling on the critical temperature of the superfluid-to-normal phase transition by using different theoretical schemes.

description: Many manifestly non-Hermitian Hamiltonians (typically, PT-symmetric complex anharmonic oscillators) possess a strictly real, "physical" bound-state spectrum. This means that they are (quasi-)Hermitian with respect to a suitable non-standard metric. The domain D of the existence of this metric is studied here for a nontrivial though still non-numerical four-parametric "benchmark" matrix model.

description: Autonomous racing represents a uniquely challenging control environment where agents must act while on the limits of a vehicle's capability in order to set competitive lap times. This places the agent on a knife's edge, with a very small margin between success and loss of control. Pushing towards this limit leads to a practical tension: we want agents to explore the limitations of vehicle control to maximise speed, but inadvertently going past that limit and losing control can cause irreparable damage to the vehicle itself. We provide a model predictive control (MPC) baseline that is able to, in a single lap, safely adapt to an unseen racetrack and achieve competitive lap times. Our approaches efficacy is demonstrated in simulation using the Learn To Race Challenge's environment and metrics.

description: Isothermal interfacial zones are investigated starting from a local energy which can be considered as the sum of two terms: one corresponding to a medium with a uniform composition equal to the local one and a second one associated with the non-uniformity of the fluid. In an extended van der Waals theory, the volume internal energy is proposed with a gradient expansion depending not only on the gradient of density but also on the gradient of entropy. We obtain the equation of conservative motions for non-homogeneous fluids near its critical point. For such a medium, it is not possible to obtain shock waves. The waves are tangential to the interface and the wave celerity is expressed depending on thermodynamic conditions at the critical point.

description: The study of genetic ancestry has become an essential component of modern genetics, offering insights into the origins and migrations of human populations. This thesis presents the development of a genetic ancestry panel specifically tailored for the Mexican population, a group characterized by its high genetic diversity and complex admixture. The primary objective of this research is to accurately estimate the proportions of ancestry in Mexicans using informative genetic markers, thereby addressing the underrepresentation of this population in Genome-Wide Association Studies (GWAS). In the initial phase, various genetic databases were considered, and three were selected for the development of the ancestry panel: the 1000 Genomes Project (1000G), the Human Genome Diversity Project (HGDP), and the Metabolic Analysis in an Indigenous Sample (MAIS). The integration of these datasets provided a comprehensive view of genetic diversity crucial for the panel's accuracy. Principal Component Analysis (PCA) was employed to visualize the genetic structure and verify the separation of ancestral groups. The results confirmed the integrity of the selected datasets. Three methods for selecting Ancestry Informative Markers (AIMs)—Top K, Balanced K, and SumInfo K—were developed and evaluated. Although Balanced K and SumInfo K showed better performance than Top K, integrating Mexican data (MAIS) posed significant challenges, particularly due to the influence of East Asian populations. To address these issues, a revised strategy was implemented, focusing on optimizing AIM selection and improving the robustness of the panel. This involved a detailed workflow and validation process, ensuring the final panel's reliability. Despite the challenges, the new strategy demonstrated promising results, and the final panel is expected to be completed soon. The developed ancestry panel has significant implications for forensic science, personalized medicine, and anthropological research. By accurately estimating ancestry proportions in the Mexican population, this research contributes to a broader understanding of genetic diversity and supports more effective medical and forensic applications. Future work will focus on finalizing the panel and applying it to the oriGen project, which aims to analyze genetic data from a large cohort of Mexicans, further enhancing the understanding of this population's genetic landscape.

description: Model-based treatment planning for transcranial ultrasound therapy typically involves mapping the acoustic properties of the skull from an x-ray computed tomography (CT) image of the head. Here, three methods for generating pseudo-CT images from magnetic resonance (MR) images were compared as an alternative to CT. A convolutional neural network (U-Net) was trained on paired MR-CT images to generate pseudo-CT images from either T1-weighted or zero-echo time (ZTE) MR images (denoted tCT and zCT, respectively). A direct mapping from ZTE to pseudo-CT was also implemented (denoted cCT). When comparing the pseudo-CT and ground truth CT images for the test set, the mean absolute error was 133, 83, and 145 Hounsfield units (HU) across the whole head, and 398, 222, and 336 HU within the skull for the tCT, zCT, and cCT images, respectively. Ultrasound simulations were also performed using the generated pseudo-CT images and compared to simulations based on CT. An annular array transducer was used targeting the visual or motor cortex. The mean differences in the simulated focal pressure, focal position, and focal volume were 9.9%, 1.5 mm, and 15.1% for simulations based on the tCT images, 5.7%, 0.6 mm, and 5.7% for the zCT, and 6.7%, 0.9 mm, and 12.1% for the cCT. The improved results for images mapped from ZTE highlight the advantage of using imaging sequences which improve contrast of the skull bone. Overall, these results demonstrate that acoustic simulations based on MR images can give comparable accuracy to those based on CT.

description: Comets and small Kuiper belt objects are considered to be among the most primitive objects in the solar system as comets like C/1995 O1 Hale-Bopp are rich in highly volatile ices like CO. It has been suggested that early in the solar system evolution the precursors of both groups, the so-called icy planetesimals, were modified by both short-lived radiogenic heating and collisional heating. Here we employ 2D finite-difference numerical models to study the internal thermal evolution of these objects, where we vary formation time, radius and rock-to-ice mass fraction. Additionally we perform 3D SPH collision models with different impact parameters, thus considering both cratering and catastrophic disruption events. Combining the results of both numerical models we estimate under which conditions highly volatile ices like CO, CO2 and NH3 can be retained inside present-day comets and Kuiper belt objects. Our results indicate that for present-day objects derived from the largest post-collision remnant the internal thermal evolution controls the amount of remaining highly volatile ices, while for the objects formed from unbound post-collision material the impact heating is dominant. Finally we apply our results to present-day comets and Kuiper belt objects like 67P/Churyumov-Gerasimenko, C/1995 O1 Hale-Bopp and (486958) Arrokoth.

description: We study the quantum version of a tilting and flashing Hamiltonian ratchets, consisting of a periodic potential and a time-periodic driving field. The system dynamics is governed by a Floquet evolution matrix bearing the symmetry of the corresponding Hamiltonian. The dc-current appears due to the desymmetrization of Floquet eigenstates, which become transporting when all the relevant symmetries are violated. Those eigenstates which mostly contribute to a directed transport reside in phase space regions corresponding to classical resonances. Quantum dynamics leads to the dependence of the average velocity on the initial phase of the ac-field. A resonant enhancement (or suppression) of the dc-current, due to avoided crossings between different Floquet states takes place upon tuning some control parameters. Our studies are predominantly aimed at experimental realizations of ac-driven quantum ratchets with cold atoms.

description: Ontologies are increasingly used for machine reasoning over the last few years. They can provide explanations of concepts or be used for concept classification if there exists a mapping from the desired labels to the relevant ontology. Another advantage of using ontologies is that they do not need a learning process, meaning that we do not need the train data or time before using them. This paper presents a practical use of an ontology for a classification problem from the financial domain. It first transforms a given ontology to a graph and proceeds with generalization with the aim to find common semantic descriptions of the input sets of financial concepts. We present a solution to the shared task on Learning Semantic Similarities for the Financial Domain (FinSim-2 task). The task is to design a system that can automatically classify concepts from the Financial domain into the most relevant hypernym concept in an external ontology - the Financial Industry Business Ontology. We propose a method that maps given concepts to the mentioned ontology and performs a graph search for the most relevant hypernyms. We also employ a word vectorization method and a machine learning classifier to supplement the method with a ranked list of labels for each concept.

description: We study local conformational biases in the dynamics of α-synuclein by using all-atom simulations with explicit and implicit solvents. The biases are related to the frequency of the specific contact formation. In both approaches, the protein is intrinsically disordered, and its strongest bias is to make bend and turn local structures. The explicit-solvent conformations can be substantially more extended which allows for formation of transient trefoil knots, both deep and shallow, that may last for up to 5 μs. The two-chain self-association events, both short- and long-lived, are dominated by formation of contacts in the central part of the sequence. This part tends to form helices when bound to a micelle.

description: Multidimensional potential energy landscapes (PELs) have a Gaussian distribution for the energies of the minima, but at the same time the distribution of the hyperareas for the basins of attraction surrounding the minima follows a power-law. To explore how both these features can simultaneously be true, we introduce an ``egg-box'' model. In these model landscapes, the Gaussian energy distribution is used as a starting point and we examine whether a power-law basin area distribution can arise as a natural consequence through the swallowing up of higher-energy minima by larger low-energy basins when the variance of this Gaussian is increased sufficiently. Although the basin area distribution is substantially broadened by this process,it is insufficient to generate power-laws, highlighting the role played by the inhomogeneous distribution of basins in configuration space for actual PELs.

Factors influencing the life cycle activity patterns of fee-for-service physicians in British Columbia
Creators: name: Kruger, Mary B.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: Projection of the future supply of physician services has attracted considerable attention all over the world, especially in North America and Europe. Supply projections, however, have not taken into account physicians’ patterns of service provision. To date, no research on supply projections has examined the relative contribution to supply life-cycle activity patterns of physicians. This study examined the life-cycle activity patterns of two groups of non-postgraduate Directory Active fee-for-service physicians in British Columbia who had practised medicine for the period 1974-84 or 1980-84. Practice activity, the dependent variable, was measured by fee-adjusted payments made to individual physicians. Practice activity was conceptualized to be influenced by three groups of interrelated factors-- personal, professional, and environmental--each comprised of a number of distinct contributory variables. Data analyses included descriptive, logistical regression and time-series/ cross-section regression methods. The time-series/cross-section regression results showed that about 35% of the variance in practice activity could be explained by all variables except past practice activity. Including this variable in the regression equations increased the variances explained to about 90%. Specialty- and sex-specific analyses showed that variances explained by the three factors, and especially the variables comprising each of the factors, varied considerably. The personal factor accounted for most of the variances; the contributions of the professional factor were very small, while those of the environmental factor were negligible. A low previous year’s income emerged as the best predictor of self-declared retirement. Most GPs, medical, and surgical specialists retired long after the usual retirement age of 65 years. The practice activity of female GPs and medical specialists was significantly lower than those of their male counterparts; this observation did not apply to female surgical specialists. Sex-specific results showed that activity levels and patterns of childbearing-aged females did not differ significantly from their non-childbearing aged counterparts. The research provides comprehensive data on the major variables influencing physician activity in a setting with comprehensive, universal, first dollar health care insurance. It also offers many insights for those interested in policy respecting physician supply and requirements, physician retirement patterns, and sex- and specialty-specific differences in practice patterns.

John K. Friesen : adult educator, mentor and humanitarian
Creators: name: Kennedy, Kathryn Anne
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: Dr. John K. Friesen is a Canadian who, for over 50 years worked first in the field of adult education in Canada and then in population planning internationally. He gained prominence in his own country, considerable international stature and a reputation for his vision and capability. Friesen successfully used a democratic, cooperative approach in discovering and responding to community requirements in adult learning. This biographical study provides new material about his character, goals, influences. The thesis focuses on Friesen’s work as Director of Extension for the University of British Columbia (UBC), Vancouver, Canada (1953 - 1966) but also outlines his life and career before this term and gives a synopsis of his international work. A brief description is given of Friesen’s upbringing in a small rural community in Manitoba, his experiences as an educator and leader during the great depression and of his war service in the RCAF. His work in organizing adult education programs for the Manitoba Federation of Agriculture and his life during post-graduate studies at Columbia University are described. He was involved in the cooperative movement and provided informed, effective leadership in Manitoba’s post-war efforts to renew its educational system and to develop a network of hospitals. The thesis examines Friesen’s commitments, methods and the management style he applied in expanding the UBC Extension Department into a sophisticated organization. Under his leadership the department became influential in adult education, leadership and citizenship training in British Columbia; also it was involved in international adult education work. Research was conducted into the work of Friesen and others in originating a graduate program in adult education at UBC. The nature and outcomes of his work in promoting continuing professional education is also examined. The role of Extension in the Vancouver International Festival and other cultural development work is discussed. Friesen is shown to have extended the work of the University into communities throughout the province using study-discussion groups, lectures, credit and noncredit programs in this work. A change in University policy (1963) forced the Department to abandon much of its community based work; the consequences of this shift are considered. Comment from seven of Friesen’s senior colleagues provides insight into his leadership quality and the perceived value of the work carried out during his term. Some conclusions are drawn about Friesen’s life as an educator and humanitarian and on his approach to adult education. The ideas, ideals, commitments and convictions demonstrated by Friesen remain valid today.

description: This study investigated the influence of sowing dates and soybean cultivars on the growth parameters and yield under semi-arid conditions in Keffi, Nasarawa State. The primary objective was to identify the best planting time and cultivar combination for sustained productivity. Data were collected for different growth parameters, including plant height, seed oil content, and yield, across three sowing dates (June 21, July 6, and July 21) and four soybean cultivars (TGX-1951, TGX-2020, TGX-1448-2E, and TGX-1904). Statistical analyses, including ANOVA, were performed to determine the significance of the interaction between sowing dates and cultivars. The results revealed that sowing dates significantly impacted several growth parameters, with early planting (June 21) often resulting in superior performance. The effect of soybean cultivars was less consistent, suggesting that environmental factors, particularly the sowing date, play a more dominant role in determining growth and yield in semi-arid conditions. The study also identified variability in cultivar performance, emphasizing the need for careful selection based on adaptability to specific environmental conditions. It was concluded that optimizing sowing dates and selecting cultivars suited to semi-arid environments can significantly enhance soybean productivity. The recommendations included adopting early sowing dates, promoting farmer education on best practices, and conducting further research to explore cultivar-specific responses to environmental stress. The study’s findings provide valuable insights for improving soybean cultivation under semi-arid conditions, despite limitations such as geographical scope and single-season analysis. Future research should focus on multi-season studies and broader geographic coverage to validate these findings

description: We take a null hypersurface (the causal horizon) generated by a congruence of null geodesics as the boundary of the Doran-Lobo-Crawford spacetime, to be the place where the Brown-York quasilocal energy is located. The components of the outer and inner stress tensors are computed and shown to depend on time and on the impact parameter $b$ of the test particle trajectory. The surface energy density $σ$ on the boundary is given by the same expression as that obtained previously for the energy stored on a Rindler horizon.
