description: By redshift of 10, star formation in the first objects should have produced considerable amounts of Carbon, Nitrogen and Oxygen. The submillimeter lines of C, N and O redshift into the millimeter and centimeter bands (0.5 mm -- 1.2 cm), where they may be detectable. High spectral resolution observations could potentially detect inhomogeneities in C, N and O emission, and see the first objects forming at high redshift. We calculate expected intensity fluctuations and discuss frequency and angular resolution required to detect them. For CII emission, we estimate the intensity using two independent methods: the line emission coefficient argument and the luminosity density argument. We find they are in good agreement. At 1+z \sim 10, the typical protogalaxy has a velocity dispersion of 30 km s^{-1} and angular size of 1 arcsecond. If CII is the dominant coolant, then we estimate a characteristic line strength of \sim 0.1 K km s^{-1}. We also discuss other atomic lines and estimate their signal. Observations with angular resolution of 10^{-3} can detect moderately nonlinear fluctuations of amplitude 2 \cdot 10^{-5} times the microwave background. If the intensity fluctuations are detected, they will probe matter density inhomogeneity, chemical evolution and ionization history at high redshifts.

Analysis of cannabinoids in post-mortem blood and hair - its value in post-mortem toxicology
Creators: name: Andrews, Rebecca
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2013

description: The work presented in this thesis describes the development of methods for the analysis of cannabinoids in post-mortem blood samples and hair specimens from cannabis users. It investigates the value of measuring post-mortem blood cannabinoid concentrations and potential value of analysis for cannabinoids in hair for post-mortem toxicology. The development and validation of a method for analysis of cannabinioids in post-mortem blood is described. The method involved liquid-liquid extraction (LLE) of the cannabinoids ∆9-tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), cannabidiol (CBD), cannabinol (CBN) and metabolites 11-hydroxy-∆9-tetrahydrocannabinol (11-OH-THC) and 11-nor-∆9-tetrahydrocannabinol-9-carboxylic acid (THC-COOH) from post-mortem blood followed by analysis by two dimensional gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (2D GC-MS). The developed method was applied to post-mortem blood samples submitted by Her Majesty’s (HM) Coroners from fatal road traffic collisions (RTCs) and other routine case types (control group). The prevalence of cannabinoids in the RTC and control group was similar (21% of the RTC group and 26% of the control group were positive for at least one cannabinoid), however, 90% of the cannabinoid positive RTCs had detectable THC (the psychoactive component of cannabis), compared to 60% of the cannabinoid positive control cases. It was demonstrated that it is feasible to indicate possible impairment due to cannabis use in fatal RTCs when the concentration of THC detected is higher than those usually observed in other routine HM Coroners’ cases. A method was developed for analysis of THC, CBD, CBN and THC-COOH from hair. The method involved LLE combined with solid phase extraction (SPE) from hair followed by analysis by 2D GC-MS and standard GC-MS. The developed method was applied to 31 authentic hair specimens from regular cannabis users. The method was suitable for detecting exposure (by detection of THC, CBD and CBN) in weekly users but may only prove ingestion in daily users (by detection of THC-COOH).

Are all energy resources created equal? a comparative analysis of the dynamics of resources for the energy system
Creators: name: Speirs, Jamie
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2014

description: There is a longstanding debate about the future availability of energy resources, and a significant literature has developed around the issues of oil availability in particular. More recently, the availability of lesser-known critical metals, such as lithium and indium, has been called into question. These metals are key components in low-carbon energy technologies and a new evidence base that questions their future availability is emerging. Much of this research applies methods and techniques also applied to the analysis of oil resources, with the implicit assumption that these resources are in some way analogous. However, although there are similarities, there are also structural differences and the appropriateness of the assumed analogy has not been sufficiently tested. This thesis explores the similarities and differences in the structure of the oil, lithium and indium resource systems, examining the likely response of these systems to availability constraints and testing the appropriateness of this assumed analogy. The systems that define the market for resources are dynamically complex and involve a number of different interlinked variables. The way in which these resource systems respond to changes in surrounding conditions arises from the structure of these variables and their linkages. However, much of the existing analysis of critical metals relies on simplistic assumptions regarding the structure and function of these systems. To address this knowledge gap, this thesis first presents case studies of the three resource systems. The case studies are then used to develop three system dynamics models. This thesis finds that, while there are many similarities in the structure of the three resource systems modelled, the differences between them have a significant impact on their dynamic system behaviour. Analysis which overlooks these differences is likely to draw inaccurate conclusions. In particular, the resilience of metals to periods of constrained availability is potentially greater than that of oil if metal recycling is taken into account. However, metals recovered as by-products are potentially limited in their ability to resist constrained availability.

The role of altered calcium handling in the pathogenesis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy
Creators: name: Rowlands, Christina
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2014

description: Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is the most common monogenic cardiovascular disease carrying a significant risk of sudden cardiac death (SCD) due to arrhythmias. The ACTC (cardiac actin) E99K transgenic (TG) mouse reproduces many aspects of HCM observed in humans. The most striking characteristic is the high probability of SCD at 25-45 days old. The primary effect of this mutation is increased myofilament Ca2+ sensitivity, which we hypothesise will disturb intracellular Ca2+ homeostasis. This thesis investigates the role of altered Ca2+ handling in the pathogenesis of HCM and the development of lethal arrhythmias. Cardiomyocytes from 8-12 week old TG animals showed prolonged relaxation with no differences in maximum sarcomere shortening. Fura-2AM loaded TG cells displayed smaller Ca2+ transients and SR load than their NTG littermates. Cells from 25-45 day old TG mice showed increased sarcomere shortening and faster relaxation. Ca2+ transient amplitude was greater in TG cells however there were no differences in SR load. In both age groups, cells from TG mice displayed reduced diastolic [Ca2+], slower efflux of Ca2+ via the Na+/Ca2+ exchanger and no differences in SR Ca2+-ATPase function. Frequency of spontaneous Ca2+ sparks and waves was greater in TG cells than in NTG cells. The increased diastolic Ca2+ release was not mediated by enhanced phosphorylation of RyR at serine-2808 or Ca2+ overload. To assess whole heart arrhythmogenicity, multi-electrode array and ECG recordings were made at baseline and in the presence of isoprenaline. Both genotypes displayed a low level of baseline arrhythmic activity. The ECG demonstrated increased propensity for arrhythmias during β-adrenergic stimulation in TG animals. These data show that intracellular Ca2+ handling changes with age and with stage of disease. Cardiomyocytes from young TG mice are hypercontractile with increased Ca2+ transient amplitude which, coupled with increased propensity for spontaneous Ca2+ release, could predispose the heart to arrhythmias.

description: We study, analytically as well as numerically, the dynamics that arises from the interaction of a polar polarizable rigid rotor with single unipolar electromagnetic pulses of varying length, $Δτ$, with respect to the rotational period of the rotor, $τ_r$. In the sudden, non-adiabatic limit, $Δτ\ll τ_r$, we derive analytic expressions for the rotor's wavefunctions, kinetic energies, and field-free evolution of orientation and alignment. We verify the analytic results by solving the corresponding time-dependent Schrödinger equation numerically and extend the temporal range of the interactions considered all the way to the adiabatic limit, $Δτ\gg τ_r$, where general analytic solutions beyond the field-free case are no longer available. The effects of the orienting and aligning interactions as well as of their combination on the post-pulse populations of the rotational states are visualized as functions of the orienting and aligning kick strengths in terms of populations quilts. Quantum carpets that encapsulate the evolution of the rotational wavepackets provide the space-time portraits of the resulting dynamics. The population quilts and quantum carpets reveal that purely orienting, purely aligning, or even-break combined interactions each exhibit a sui generis dynamics. In the intermediate temporal regime, we find that the wavepackets as functions of the orienting and aligning kick strengths show resonances that correspond to diminished kinetic energies at particular values of the pulse duration.

description: We present quantitative statistical evidence for a $γ$-ray emission halo surrounding the Galaxy. Maps of the emission are derived. EGRET data were analyzed in a wavelet-based non-parametric hypothesis testing framework, using a model of expected diffuse (Galactic + isotropic) emission as a null hypothesis. The results show a statistically significant large scale halo surrounding the center of the Milky Way as seen from Earth. The halo flux at high latitudes is somewhat smaller than the isotropic gamma-ray flux at the same energy, though of the same order (O(10^(-7)--10^(-6)) ph/cm^2/s/sr above 1 GeV).

Functionalised nanoparticles for molecular imaging
Creators: name: Keasberry, Natasha Ann
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2014

description: This thesis describes the synthesis of iron oxide nanoparticles for use as contrast agents in biomedical imaging, specifically for MRI. The limitations of single imaging modalities can be overcome by the synergistic combination of two or more imaging techniques, e.g. the low sensitivity but high resolution of MRI complements the high sensitivity but low resolution of PET. The large surface area of superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPION) allows relatively simple functionalisation. The large size of a single combined nanoparticle MRI/PET probe would slow down in vivo movement, diminishing radioactivity before reaching its target. Pre-targeting using a magnetic nanoparticle followed by the injection of the radio-labelled molecule at the correct time will ensure radioactivity remains sufficiently high. Thus, the investigation of dual-modality probe development is also a focus of the thesis. Chapter 2 discusses the preparation of iron oxide nanoparticles with a core diameter of 6 nm via the high temperature thermal decomposition of iron salts. Direct modification to the surface of the nanoparticles was carried out using various small molecules with differing anchoring groups, the most successful being sodium alendronate, a bisphosphonate ligand. Chapter 3 describes the further functionalisation of the nanoparticles. One way this was achieved was by the incorporation of PEG chains of different lengths to increase water solubility and biocompatibility. Functionalisation with a strained alkyne for eventual in vitro/in vivo copper-free cycloaddition with an azide group was also achieved. The PET moiety was designed to be a 68Ga-azido-DOTA complex. Prior to radiolabelling with gallium-68, the copper-free cyclised resultant nanoparticles were characterised by the use of lanthanide analogues (Eu, Tb and Gd). Eu and Tb allowed for fluorescence spectroscopy, while the Gd allowed for relaxivity measurements to be carried out. Unexpected fluorescence results were observed for the Eu and Tb analogues. The Gd-NP conjugates are further investigated in Chapter 4. Combination of both a T1 and T2 moiety results in changes to the relaxivity of the resultant nanoparticle which can act as a dual-weighted MRI probe. The relaxivities are found to vary with modifications to the nanoparticle construct. Finally, preliminary in vitro experiments with macrophages were carried out to investigate whether there was significant preferential uptake between M1 and M2 macrophages. A single-chain variable fragment (scFv) specific to Fractalkine, a chemokine important in the progression of atherosclerosis was prepared, for use as a targeting moiety towards the imaging of vulnerable plaque.

description: We compute the dynamical relaxation times for chiral transport phenomena in strongly coupled regime using the AdS/CFT correspondence. These relaxation times can be a useful proxy for the dynamical time scale for achieving equilibrium spin-polarization of quasi-particles in the presence of magnetic field and fluid vorticity. We identify the Kubo relations for these relaxation times and clarify some previous issues regarding time-dependence of the Chiral Vortical Effect. We study the consequences of imposing time-reversal invariance on parity-odd thermal noise fluctuations that are related to chiral transport coefficients by the fluctuation-dissipation relation. We find that time-reversal invariance dictates the equality between some of the chiral transport coefficients as well as their relaxation times.

Late-time Evolution of Afterglows from Off-Axis Neutron-Star Mergers

description: Gravitational-wave detected neutron star mergers provide an opportunity to investigate short gamma-ray burst (GRB) jet afterglows without the GRB trigger. Here we show that the post-peak afterglow decline can distinguish between an initially ultra-relativistic jet viewed off-axis and a mildly relativistic wide-angle outflow. Post-peak the afterglow flux will decline as $F_ν\propto t^{-α}$. The steepest decline for a jet afterglow is $α>3p/4$ or $> (3p+1)/4$, for an observation frequency below and above the cooling frequency, respectively, where $p$ is the power-law index of the electron energy distribution. The steepest decline for a mildly relativistic outflow, with initial Lorentz factor $Γ_0\lesssim 2$, is $α\lesssim(15p-19)/10$ or $α\lesssim(15p-18)/10$, in the respective spectral regimes. If the afterglow from GW170817 fades with a maximum index $α> 1.5$ then we are observing the core of an initially ultra-relativistic jet viewed off the central axis, while a decline with $α\lesssim 1.4$ after $\sim 5$--10 peak times indicates that a wide-angled and initially $Γ_0\lesssim 2$ outflow is responsible. At twice the peak time, the two outflow models fall on opposite sides of $α\approx 1$. So far, two post-peak X-ray data points at 160 and 260 days suggest a decline consistent with an off-axis jet afterglow. Follow-up observations over the next 1--2 years will test this model.

Radiation-Driven Warping. II. Non-Isothermal Disks

Publisher: name: arXiv

description: Recent work by Pringle and by Maloney, Begelman & Pringle has shown that geometrically thin, optically thick, accretion disks are unstable to warping driven by radiation torque from the central source. In this paper we generalize the study of radiation-driven warping to include general power-law surface density distributions, $Σ\propto R^{-δ}$. We consider the range $δ=3/2$ (isothermal disks) to $δ=-3/2$, which corresponds to a radiation-pressure-supported disk; this spans the range of surface density distributions likely to be found in real astrophysical disks. There is a critical minimum size for unstable disks. The critical radius and the steady-state precession rate depend only weakly on $δ$. The case $δ=1$ divides the solutions into two qualitatively different regimes. Nonlinear effects must be important if the warp extends to the disk inner edge for $δ\ge 1$, but for $δ< 1$ nonlinearity will be important only if the warp amplitude is large at the origin. The effects of shadowing of the central source by the warp will thus be very different in the two regimes of $δ.$ In real accretion disks the outer boundary condition is likely to be different from the zero-crossing condition that we have assumed. In accretion disks around massive black holes in active galactic nuclei, the disk will probably become optically thin before the outer disk boundary is reached, while in X-ray binaries, there will be an outer disk region (outside the circularization radius) in which the inflow velocity is zero but angular momentum is still transported. We show that in both these cases the solutions are similar to the zero-crossing eigenfunctions.

description: We study the dynamics of a two-component Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) of $^{174}$Yb atoms coherently driven on a narrow optical transition. The excitation transfers the BEC to a superposition of states with different internal and momentum quantum numbers. We observe a crossover with decreasing driving strength between a regime of damped oscillations, where coherent driving prevails, and an incoherent regime, where relaxation takes over. Several relaxation mechanisms are involved: inelastic losses involving two excited atoms, leading to a non-exponential decay of populations; Doppler broadening due to the finite momentum width of the BEC and inhomogeneous elastic interactions, both leading to dephasing and to damping of the oscillations. We compare our observations to a two-component Gross-Pitaevskii (GP) model that fully includes these effects. For small or moderate densities, the damping of the oscillations is mostly due to Doppler broadening. In this regime, we find excellent agreement between the model and the experimental results. For higher densities, the role of interactions increases and so does the damping rate of the oscillations. The damping in the GP model is less pronounced than in the experiment, possibly a hint for many-body effects not captured by the mean-field description.

Role of meningeal inflammation in cortical pathology and disease progression of multiple sclerosis
Creators: name: Carassiti, Daniele
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2012

description: Multiple sclerosis (MS) is a chronic inflammatory disease of the central nervous system (CNS) that affects primarily young adults. The initial relapsing-remitting phase, characterized by transitory attacks of inflammatory demyelination, is treatable with immunomodulatory interventions while the later progressive stage of the disease is as yet untreatable. During disease progression the slow accumulation of cortical grey matter (GM) demyelination seems to reflect the nature of neurological symptoms and has been strongly associated with the presence of a compartmentalized immune response within the meninges. We hypothesized that a secluded chronic interaction of immune cells within the meningeal compartment is the mechanism underlying the accumulation of cortical damage during this phase. Our aims were to: characterize the phenotypes of immune cells contributing to meningeal inflammation; to describe their possible interactions; and to verify their association with GM pathology. This analysis, also performed in white matter, was aimed at comparing the inflammation in the two compartments. In parallel we correlated the pathological findings with clinical milestones to test the hypothesis of cortical pathology as a substrate for clinical progression. We performed a detailed quantitative immunohistochemical analysis on a cohort of 21 post-mortem progressive MS cases by sampling 483 brain tissue blocks provided by UK MS Tissue Bank. The proportion of demyelinated tissue in the GM was approximately four times greater than in WM and positively correlated with the presence in the subarachnoid space of a pro-inflammatory lymphocyte subset identified by the expression of CD8+ and CD161+ and with the density of MHCII+ microglia in the cortex. We showed that the most frequent lymphocytic subsets quantified in the MS brain were, in decreasing order, CD8+ T cells, CD20+ B cells, CD4+ T and CD8+CD161+ T cells. Furthermore, we identified the presence of mucosal associated invariant T (MAIT) cells, a novel IL-17 secreting subset of CD161+ lymphocytes expressing CCR6 and invariant TCRVα7.2, within the subarachnoid space and in WM perivascular infiltrates. In addition we reported that a higher density of meningeal inflammation correlates with a younger age at death These findings showed the presence of a pro-inflammatory response compartmentalized within the meninges of the MS brain, which was associated with an exacerbated cortical pathology and a more severe disease course, in particular affecting its late progressive phase. These observations support our hypothesis of a role of meningeal inflammation in the accumulation of cortical pathology during progressive MS. This detrimental immune activation within the meninges is a potential target for localized therapeutic interventions aiming to prevent or arrest its development during the progressive phase of the disease.

Political scientists? : the UK knowledge economy and young scientists
Creators: name: Hancock, Sally
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2012

description: This thesis is an exploration of the UK knowledge economy, and its implications for the present and future lives of STEM (science, technology, engineering, mathematics) doctoral students at a research-intensive UK university. The research methodology included a critical literature review, focus groups, a large scale survey, and depth interviews. The thesis reports that the UK knowledge economy is a known phenomenon to young scientists and, across the population of young scientists, five distinct moral positions towards the knowledge economy are discerned. These five moral positions form a spectrum, ranging from ‘anti’ to ‘pro’ knowledge economy. Young scientists’ moral positions on the knowledge economy are revealed to be a key aspect of their scientific identity. That the scientific identities of young scientists are in part moral contradicts dominant images of the scientist who, in Steven Pinker’s words, is often construed as an ‘amoral nerd’ (Pinker in Shapin, 2008: xv). Young scientists’ conceptions of identity are however, notable for their narrowness. Young scientists continue to rely upon the paradigm of modernity when forming their moral position on the knowledge economy, and constructing their identity. Accordingly, they view scientific identity as solid and stable. A game theory informed analysis illuminates how young scientists strategically tailor their scientific life in order to construct and sustain a stable identity; the achievement of which, they believe, is the best preparation for a scientific career. The irony of this finding is that contemporary science is shaped by postmodern forces: the knowledge economy and liquid modernity. These forces generate diversity, contradiction and perpetual change. It is argued that young scientists must develop a liquid scientific identity, fit for these conditions. Three reforms of the STEM PhD are proposed to enable universities to support young scientists to ‘avoid fixation and keep the options open’ (Bauman, 1995: 20).
Lorentz Transformation and Light-Like Noncommutative SYM

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We show that combining the spatial noncommutative SYM limit and Lorentz transformation, one can obtain a well-behaved light-like noncommutative SYM limit. The light-like noncommutative SYM is unitary. When the boost velocity is finite, the resulting theory with space-time noncommutativity is unitary as well. The light-like noncommutative SYM limit can also be approached by combining the noncommutative open string theory limit and Lorentz transformation. Along this line, we obtain the supergravity dual for the light-like noncommutative SYM, which is the same as the one acquired using a different method. As a comparison, the supergravity duals for the ordinary SYM, spatial noncommutative SYM and the noncommutative open string theories are given as well, in an infinitely-boosted frame with finite momentum density, which are the decoupling limits of bound states (Dp, W), (D($p-2$), W, Dp), and (F1, W, Dp), respectively.

The role of TASK-3 potassium channels in theta oscillations and behaviour
Creators: name: Carr, David R.
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2013

description: The two pore-domain potassium channel TASK-3 provides a potassium leak conductance in the mammalian brain and is activated by volatile anaesthetics. Previous studies have shown that TASK-3 knockout (KO) mice have a number of physiological and behavioural abnormalities. In particular, TASK-3 KO mice lack the type-2 theta oscillation (4-8 Hz) usually present in the electroencephalogram (EEG) under halothane anaesthesia, while the higher frequency type-1 theta oscillation (8-12 Hz) recorded during exploratory behaviour is unaffected. That TASK-3 KO mice also have moderate memory impairments, led us to ask whether there might be a link between type-2 theta deficits and impaired mnemonic behaviour. Our results indicate that TASK-3 KO mice also have impaired type-2 theta oscillations during freezing behaviour in a predator exposure test, suggesting possible sensorimotor integration problems. TASK-3 KO mice were found to have a mild impairment in working memory in the T-maze, but object recognition and emotional memory were intact, excluding a role for the TASK-3-dependent theta oscillation in these processes. Further studies then sought to understand the mechanistic role of TASK-3 in the theta oscillation using recombinant Adeno-associated viruses (rAAVs). We first investigated a possible functional role for the type-2 theta oscillation in mediating anaesthesia, and then confirmed that the halothane-associated theta oscillation was dependent upon cholinergic input from the medial septum to the hippocampus. TASK-3 was then re-expressed via rAAV in the medial septum in KO mice, resulting in partial rescue of the type-2 theta oscillation. Our results show that (1) the type-2 theta oscillation plays a redundant role in halothane anaesthesia, (2) type-2 theta deficits in TASK-3 KO mice have minimal effect on memory processing, and (3) that TASK-3 channels in the medial septum play a facilitatory role in type-2 theta oscillations.
