description: Frequency encoding of quantum information together with fiber and integrated photonic technologies can significantly reduce the complexity and resource requirements for realizing all-photonic quantum networks. The key challenge for such frequency domain processing of single photons is to realize coherent and selective interactions between quantum optical fields of different frequencies over a range of bandwidths. Here, we report frequency-domain Hong-Ou-Mandel interference with spectrally distinct photons generated from a chip-based microresonator. We use four-wave mixing to implement an active frequency beam-splitter and achieve interference visibilities of $0.95 \pm 0.02$. Our work establishes four-wave mixing as a tool for selective high-fidelity two-photon operations in the frequency domain which, combined with integrated single-photon sources, provides a building block for frequency-multiplexed photonic quantum networks.

description: Let F be a subfield of a commutative field extending R. Let ϕ_2: F^2 \times F^2 \to F, ϕ_2((x_1,x_2),(y_1,y_2))=(x_1-y_1)^2+(x_2-y_2)^2. We say that f:R^2 \to F^2 preserves distance d \geq 0 if for each x,y \in R^2 |x-y|=d implies ϕ_2(f(x),f(y))=d^2. We prove that each unit-distance preserving mapping f:R^2 \to F^2 has a form I \circ (ρ,ρ), where ρ: R \to F is a field homomorphism and I: F^2 \to F^2 is an affine mapping with orthogonal linear part.

description: Einführung Erinnerungskultur ist ein zentrales und zugleich hochambivalentes Element unserer heutigen Gesellschaft, welches mittels der Form des Erinnerungslernens aktuelle Bildungsprozesse prägt. Erinnerungslernen und damit einhergehend Antisemitismus-Prävention sind Themen, die neben einer Verortung im Geschichts- oder Politikunterricht, insbesondere im Religionsunterricht, von besonderer Relevanz sind, da dort die Beschäftigung mit dem Judentum nicht nur auf die Schoah beschränkt und das Judentum auch als gelebte Religion wahrgenommen wird. Dazu soll dieser Unterrichtsentwurf zu Elie Wiesels Der Schwur von Kolvillág einen Beitrag leisten, indem neben der Verwendung des Romans eines jüdischen Holocaust-Überlebenden und Friedensnobelpreisträgers das zusätzliche Lehr-Lern-Material ebenfalls aus jüdischen Quellen stammt. So soll gewähreistet werden, dass nicht nur über das Judentum gesprochen, sondern mit dem Judentum gelernt wird. [...]

description: In this paper, we explore the global value chain (GVC) for whey protein concentrate (WPC 80) and permeate powder (PP) through a study following the practicalities of the export of WPC 80 and PP from the Norwegian farmer-owned dairy cooperative, Tine SA. We follow processing, packaging, logistics and export administration. The study suggests that the value chain and the partnership between Tine and Arla Foods may be described as a “captive” global value chain were Tine is transactional dependent on the main actor, Arla Food Ingredients. We conclude by discussing some features of the global markets for engineered food.

description: One of the main challenges in using high redshift active galactic nuclei to study the correlations between the mass of the supermassive Black Hole (MBH) and the properties of their active host galaxies is instrumental resolution. Strong lensing magnification effectively increases instrumental resolution and thus helps to address this challenge. In this work, we study eight strongly lensed active galactic nuclei (AGN) with deep Hubble Space Telescope imaging, using the lens modelling code Lenstronomy to reconstruct the image of the source. Using the reconstructed brightness of the host galaxy, we infer the host galaxy stellar mass based on stellar population models. MBH are estimated from broad emission lines using standard methods. Our results are in good agreement with recent work based on non-lensed AGN, demonstrating the potential of using strongly lensed AGNs to extend the study of the correlations to higher redshifts. At the moment, the sample size of lensed AGN is small and thus they provide mostly a consistency check on systematic errors related to resolution for the non-lensed AGN. However, the number of known lensed AGN is expected to increase dramatically in the next few years, through dedicated searches in ground and space based wide field surveys, and they may become a key diagnostic of black hole and galaxy co-evolution.

description: This thesis research explores the topic of wellness from the post-secondary student perspective in this post-pandemic era. It begins with the question: “How might the practice of wellness become an accessible ‘tool’ to maximize everyday experiences and foster a wellness-centred lifestyle?” This research aims to help people move from lacking well-being to feeling well by promoting and embedding wellness practices into everyday activities. This thesis inquires into the practice of wellness from both an auto-ethnographic lens and a participatory perspective. By documenting personal data and my wellness journey through travelling, being outside and disconnecting from society, the auto-ethnographic design experiment employs descriptive reflections, photography and bookmaking. The participatory perspective includes gathering insights from surveys and hosting participatory workshop activities with current and recently graduated post-secondary students. This collected information is then thematically analyzed, and published as a website with the research process. By aligning the similarities from the two design experiments, the findings indicate that reframing wellness as an un-privileged practice and embedding the wellness mindset in everyday lives, could help balance negative emotions and maximize everyday experiences. This led to the summative system design project: The Wellness Design Lab Care Kit, which proposes to elevate daily experiences through personalized wellness practices.

description: The replacement of animal protein by plant protein is a trend in human nutrition and sunflower appears as a promising raw material. Dealing with innovation in the food industry requires attention not only to the product development process, but to the whole production chain related to it. Within this context and in face of the potential participation of Brazil in the business of sunflower protein food ingredients, this study aims to describe and analyze the operational dynamics of sunflower production chains in Brazil. To deal with this issue, we adopted the multiple-case study approach based on three production chains of sunflower oil in Brazil. Transaction cost economics and social network are the theoretical background for the analysis. Our findings suggest an environment with high transaction costs in the operation of the production chains of sunflower oil in Brazil. The processing company is the chain coordinator agent, being responsible to attract the farmers to the business of sunflower, using the strategies of crop promotion and verticalization. Crop promotion is in some degree the pattern of chain operation for all cases. It refers to a set of actions generally coordinated by the processing company aiming to encourage and assist farmers in the growing of sunflower. Moreover, it serves as a trust building and supervision strategy. Regional features influence the chain operation in terms of crop promotion applied by the processing company and the role of agents from farm supply retail stores (FSRS). The strategies of crop promotion and verticalization have not been sufficient to easily guarantee the provision of sunflower to the processing companies. Our findings show that if investments in the production of sunflower protein food ingredients are to be made in Brazil, it is necessary to consider the complex institutional arrangements in which the sunflower production chains operate, seeking to guarantee the necessary provision of raw material for the processing company.

description: The usage of dual-purpose chicken breeds is one of the discussed alternatives to prevent cockerel chicks of laying hens from being killed for economic reasons. Therefore, the aim of this study is to analyse consumers’ perspective on dual-purpose chickens. To get an insight into the consumers’ perspective, we initially conducted six focus groups with German citizens focussing on chicken meat and egg preferences, perception of chicken farming and attitudes towards dual-purpose chicken breeds. The results show that most of the participants were aware of the killing of day-old chicks. However, alternatives were scarcely known. After giving the participants information about the dual-purpose chicken, they were generally in favour of this chicken breed. Some participants raised concerns regarding the economic efficiency and the higher product prices. For others, ethical values predominated. All in all, the results demonstrate that the discussants have specific expectation regarding a dual-purpose chicken.

description: We address the evolution of cat-like states in general Gaussian noisy channels, by considering superpositions of coherent and squeezed-coherent states coupled to an arbitrarily squeezed bath. The phase space dynamics is solved and decoherence is studied keeping track of the purity of the evolving state. The influence of the choice of the state and channel parameters on purity is discussed and optimal working regimes that minimize the decoherence rate are determined. In particular, we show that squeezing the bath to protect a non squeezed cat state against decoherence is equivalent to orthogonally squeezing the initial cat state while letting the bath be phase insensitive.

description: Argentina substantially contributes to the global organic agriculture and food sector due to its large areas of organically managed agricultural land. However, most of the organic production is foreseen for export. Overall, food supply for the domestic organic market is hardly tapped. This study investigates the current importance of organic agriculture and food production as well as its consumption within the country. The novelty of the study also lies in the observation, documentation and analysis of latest stakeholder-driven developments towards organic agriculture and food. The publication allows to make the Argentinian organic market significantly more visible for the international audience.

description: In the food industry low amounts of capital are invested in innovation and R&D and companies are mainly engaged in developing product and process innovations in order to keep up with continuously changing consumer preferences. Notwithstanding, marketing and organizational innovation are becoming pivotal for food companies in order to specifically meet these preferences, and develop new business practices which allow them to implement successful external relationships aimed at a greater and successful innovation activity. In this regard, the present paper aims to shed lights on the determinants of both types of non-technological innovations in two of the largest EU food and drink producers by turnover and value added: Italy and Germany. To this purpose, an econometric analysis is run using microdata of the Community Innovation Survey (CIS) carried out in 2012. Results highlight that, apart from some significant differences concerning the role of knowledge sources, training activities represent a relevant driver for both marketing and organizational innovations in both countries.

description: Bilayer electron-hole systems, where the electrons and holes are created via doping and confined to separate layers, undergo excitonic condensation when the distance between the layers is smaller than typical distance between particles within a layer. We argue that the excitonic condensate is a novel dipolar superfluid in which the phase of the condensate couples to the {\it gradient} of the vector potential. We predict the existence of dipolar supercurrent which can be tuned by an in-plane magnetic field and detected by independent contacts to the layers. Thus the dipolar superfluid offers an example of excitonic condensate in which the {\it composite} nature of its constituent excitons is manifest in the macroscopic superfluid state. We also discuss various properties of this superfluid including the role of vortices.

The measures comprise separations and PA calibrated against Alpha Centauri AB and drift scans, presented as weighted means of these two calibration methods, with formal internal uncertainties δρ= 80 mas and δPA = 0.056(deg). We also compare our measures against 1) extrapolated historic measures, 2) GAIA DR2 data and 3) measures determined from HIPPARCOS and GAIA observations. Our best estimate of our bias against these 3 databases are ρ\approx 10 \pm 30 mas and PA \approx 0.04 \pm 0.08(deg). These formal uncertainties are consistent with the internal uncertainties of δρ= 80 mas and δPA = 0.056(deg). We also report Rectilinear Elements for 61 pairs, Grade 5 Orbital Elements for 5 pairs and suggest 5 pairs as optical doubles (4 of which are new).

description: The contemporary food market is experiencing an increased popularity of quality locally produced foods. These types of foods are produced and distributed in a different manner than foods subject to large-scale modernistic forms of production. The research question is posed as how to integrate this particular form of networked food production. The paper discusses what differentiates this form of food production focusing in its logistics and relationship features; features of interdependencies, information technology, traceability, complexity and local foods networks as complex ecosystems are applied to evoke these logistics and relationship particularities. This implies expand the supply chain view to accommodate for ecosystems thinking on local foods. The study provides accordingly, based on a single case study, a detailed description of the local foods network of a small Norwegian fresh seafood retailer and wholesaler. Based on this empirical evidence, a conceptual model that describes how food supply may be considered as an ecosystem. This model, which basically is a set of systemically interrelated propositions, represents basis for further investigation to better empirically ground the views presented in this paper on how to integrate in this form of local foods supply understood as complex systems encompassing ecosystems thinking.

description: We present the UV composite luminosity function for galaxies in the Virgo, Coma and Abell 1367 clusters. The luminosity function (LF) is well fitted by a Schechter function with M*(UV} - 5*log h(75) = -20.75 +/- 0.40 and alpha = -1.50 +/- 0.10 and does not differ significantly from the local UV luminosity function of the field. This result is in agreement with recent studies carried out in the Halpha and B-bands which find no difference between the LFs of star forming galaxies in clusters and in the field. This indicates that, whatever mechanisms are responsible for quenching the star formation in clusters, they influence similarly the giant and the dwarf populations, leaving the shape of the LF unchanged and only modifying its normalization.

description: The search for long-lived particles (LLP) is an exciting physics opportunity in the upcoming runs of the Large Hadron Collider. In this paper, we focus on a new search strategy of using the High Granularity Calorimeter (HGCAL), part of the upgrade of the CMS detector, in such searches. In particular, we demonstrate that the high granularity of the calorimeter with this upgrade, which allows us to see "shower tracks" in the calorimeter, can play a crucial role in identifying the signal and suppressing the background. We study the potential reach of the HGCAL using a signal model in which the Standard Model Higgs boson decays into a pair of LLPs, $h \to XX$. After carefully estimating the Standard Model QCD and the misreconstructed fake-track backgrounds, we give the projected reach for both a more conservative vector boson fusion trigger and a novel displaced-track-based trigger. Our results show that the best reach for the Higgs decay branching ratio, BR$(h \to XX)$, in the vector boson fusion channel is about $\mathcal{O}(10^{-4})$ with lifetime $cτ_X \sim 0.1$--$1$ meters, while for the gluon gluon fusion channel it is about $\mathcal{O}(10^{-5}\text{--}10^{-6})$ for similar lifetimes. Alternatively, for an LLP with $cτ_X \sim 10^3$ meters, the HGCAL based search should be able to probe BR$(h\to XX)$ down to a few $\times 10^{-4}$($10^{-2}$) in the gluon gluon fusion (vector boson fusion) channels, respectively. In comparison with these previous searches, our new search shows enhanced sensitivity in complementary regions of the LLP parameter space.

description: Engineered tissues have many potential applications both as experimental systems and in therapeutic devices and treatments. Specially, there is potential to repair damaged spinal cord, however work is still needed to predict the process of tissue growth. Computational physics has potential to signicantly accelerate the progress of development and to improve the properties of engineered neural tissue (ENT). Research has found that correlation exists between physical forces and the arrangement of cells in engineered tissue. In this thesis, emphasis is put on the interaction between astrocytes within engineered neural tissue (ENT). The main aim of this work is to create a computational model which will be able to predict the arrangement of these cells in ENT. Computational techniques of soft matter physics are used to describe the final growth state of cells in ENT. In this thesis, we treat tissue as a two dimensional mesh. Interactions are described by both a simple Hamiltonian related to cell orientation and the dipole force model (DFM) and a more advanced Hamiltonian, which takes into account the inuence of the extracellular matrix and cells. To find the minimum energy state of the system a simulated annealing algorithm was used. The first set of results presents a two-dimensional map of real articial engineered neural tissue and shows the statistical distribution of the average angles and positions of groups of cells within the tissue. Next, we present results generated by a simple Hamiltonian and more advanced model to investigate information about orientation, arrangement and shape of the whole tissue. It is found that an extended DFM where cells can move and change orientation is able to reproduce several features of the experimental data including an approximation to the delta regions and the aligned behaviour in the centre of the sample.

description: The global population is rapidly aging, leading to an increase in the number of elderly individuals requiring care and support. Meanwhile, the birth rates in many countries are declining, which means a relative decrease in the number of young caregivers while the demand increases. The One-Child Policy limited many Chinese families to single-child households from 1980 to 2016, creating a shortage of caregiving for the elderly. The elderly in need of care have fewer children to ‘guard against old age,’ as per a Chinese proverb. Consequently, the One-Child Policy burdened adult children who cared for their aging parents and grandparents. This research addresses common mental illness care concerns impacting elderly individuals in families facing these circumstances and explores ways to support their younger caregivers. The COVID-19 pandemic has further exacerbated the issue of remote care, heightening the sensitivity of the elderly and intensifying their sense of loss due to physical decline with age. As a result, the demand for accessible and barrier-free design has become increasingly critical. To address this complex issue, this research employs participatory and interview methods to investigate the factors contributing to psychological changes in elderly individuals. The scope of the research includes interviews with professionals and adult children as caregivers, conducting autoethnographic research, journaling and observations to gain further insights into the psychological challenges currently faced by the elderly. The project aims to provide an in-depth understanding of the changes experienced by the elderly and clarify the social and cultural factors associated with these changes. The ultimate goal of the research is to support a digital mental health tool designed for distant caregivers who often find themselves under immense pressure while caring for the elderly, addressing the critical need to proactively understand and tackle potential mental well-being issues in elderly individuals. This digital mental health tool is named “Wecare” - it is tailored to address the specific needs and challenges with the aim of enhancing mental well-being, facilitating communication between caregivers and the elderly, providing education to users, and preventing potential mental illness.

description: Diese eindrückliche Stelle aus Elie Wiesels Nacht dient als Einstieg für eine Unterrichtseinheit zum Thema Erinnerungskultur. Erinnerungskultur befindet sich im Wandel und muss deshalb immer wieder neu gestaltet und differenziert werden. Das Verstummen der Zeitzeugen verstärkt die Relevanz, neue Medien und Methoden zu finden, mithilfe derer ein aktives Erinnerungslernen ermöglicht wird. Ein Lebensweltbezug zu den Schüler_innen ist elementar, um ein eigenständiges Interesse und Handeln der Lernenden zu fördern. Für den vorliegenden Unterrichtsentwurf wurde das digitale Medium Podcast gewählt. Seit ein paar Jahren liegen Podcasts voll im Trend, diverse Influencer_innen betreiben mittlerweile ein solches Format. Die mal mehr, mal weniger langen Folgen finden eine breite Hörerschaft und werden auf dem Weg zur Schule, in der Badewanne oder auch vor dem Einschlafen gehört. Podcasts können jedoch nicht nur der reinen Unterhaltung dienen, sondern auch sachliche und informative Inhalte behandeln. Viele Podcastbetreiber greifen aktuelle Themen auf oder machen beispielsweise auf Missstände in unserer Zeit und Gesellschaft aufmerksam. Im Blick auf erinnerungsgeleitete Lehr-Lern-Prozesse vermag dieses Medium, den Spagat zwischen Gegenwart und Vergangenheit – und konkret innerhalb dieser Unterrichtseinheit – zwischen den Schüler_innen selbst und der Person Elie Wiesel zu überbrücken.

The ecology and anchorage mechanics of kelp holdfasts

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: The intertidal zone on wave-swept shores is among the most stressful environments on earth. The ability of organisms to survive and thrive in such environments depends on their ability to withstand breakage and wave dislodgement. The research presented in this thesis investigated two aspects of the biology of kelp holdfasts. I first examined whether the recruitment of the kelp Hedophyllum sessile was facilitated by the presence of holdfasts of adult conspecifics and how canopy cover and wave-exposure mediated this interaction. Field experiments indicated that adult holdfasts and substrata of high structural complexity, such as articulated coralline algae, enhanced recruitment. However, the ability of structurally complex substrata to facilitate recruitment depends largely on the extent of canopy cover and to a lesser extent on wave-exposure. Mechanisms by which canopy cover mediates substratum-specific recruitment processes may hold significant implications for population persistence and successful recruitment, especially following periods of high disturbance. Secondly, I investigated the functional morphology of the holdfast of the kelp Laminaria setchellii in relation to its role in providing attachment to the substratum and resistance against wave dislodgment. Results of field investigations indicated that the thallus of L. setchellii responds to increased wave exposure by decreasing blade size and increasing holdfast size; a concomitant increase in holdfast attachment force was not observed. At high wave exposure sites, the integrity and attachment of L. setchellii holdfasts is jeopardized by the presence of barnacles and burrowing crabs. Field investigations further showed that L. setchellii exhibits asymmetry with respect to the prevailing wave direction. The blade and upper part of the stipe are oriented with their longer axis perpendicular to the flow so that reconfiguration and bending is facilitated. The lower part of the stipe and holdfast are oriented with their longer axis parallel to the flow, resisting bending. By exhibiting such pattern of asymmetry along it thallus, L. setchellii avoid large hydrodynamic forces while still avoiding large swaying and remaining off the substratum in water of higher light intensities and velocities.

description: 1 Thematische Hinführung: Warum Hannah Arendt? Die Frage, warum auch über vierzig Jahre nach ihrem Tod noch immer über Hannah Arendt gesprochen werden sollte, ist leicht zu beantworten: Arendt gehört zu den einflussreichsten weiblichen Intellektuellen des 20. Jahrhunderts. Sie äußerte sich unter anderem über totale Herrschaft, Antisemitismus, den Zionismus, den Eichmann-Prozess und die Rassentrennung in den USA. Sie war Historikerin, Politologin und Publizistin mit internationaler Reichweite. Begriffe wie die Banalität des Bösen sind zu Schlagworten geworden. Keines ihrer Themen ist heute abgeschlossen. Arendts Sicht auf das 20. Jahrhundert bleibt aktuell. Nur wenige Frauen ihrer Zeit haben die Rolle der großen politischen Denkerin so souverän beansprucht wie sie: 1959 erhielt sie beispielsweise als erste Frau eine Gastprofessur in Princeton. Interessant ist in diesem Zusammenhang, dass sie trotz dieser Tatsache der Frauenfrage keine große Bedeutung beizumessen schien und sich bezüglich des Feminismus meist desinteressiert oder gar ablehnend äußerte. Nein, Arendt lässt sich nicht in bestimmte Kategorien einordnen. Zeit ihres Lebens hat sie polarisiert und löst bis heute kontroverse Diskussionen über ihre Person und Wirkung aus. Warum aber sollte ausgerechnet im Religionsunterricht über Hannah Arendt gesprochen werden? [...]

description: A team of 8 organisations from Belgium, Germany, Hungary, Italy, The Netherlands and Turkey supported over 40 teams and preferably startups to realise food chain innovations. Over a period of 2 years, a programme was developed and realised to select and support teams from the ideation to the commercialisation phase. The teams were usually working in close collaboration with a business partner, were supported in the usage of reusable software components for Internet based solutions and got direct assistance to address potential customers especially in the area of fruit and vegetables. Embedded in a larger initiative with use cases from different business domains, a set of metrics was developed to assess the teams and solutions that were characterised by different maturity levels, size and market potentials. The objective was to rank the teams for being able to focus support on the best performing solutions. Subsequently, it was discussed, if there are potential success patterns that could help to assess team performance at an earlier stage and possibly facilitate the forecasting of potential investment risks at an earlier stage. Finally, the objective is to use those results for being able to analyse and technologically assist future use cases that are currently set-up in the scope of a Large Scale Pilot initiative. The objective is to use the results for facilitating future selection of food chain innovations that could complement the set of 19 use cases currently being developed.

description: We present UBVI surface photometry for 20.'5 X 20.'5 area of a late-type spiral galaxy NGC 300. In order to understand the morphological properties and luminosity distribution characteristics of NGC 300, we have derived isophotal maps, surface brightness profiles, ellipticity profiles, position angle profiles, and color profiles. By merging the I-band data of our surface brightness measurements with those of Boeker et al. (2002) based on Hubble Space Telescope observations, we have made combined I-band surface brightness profiles for the region of 0."02 < r < 500" and decomposed the profiles into three components: a nucleus, a bulge, and an exponential disk.

Three-dimensional simulations of non-stationary accretion by remnant black holes of compact object mergers

description: (abridged) Three-dimensional hydrodynamic simulations with an Eulerian PPM code are presented for the time-dependent evolution of accretion tori around nonrotating and rotating stellar-mass black holes (BHs), using a pseudo-Newtonian gravitational potential to approximate the effects of general relativity. The initial configurations are assumed to be remnants of binary neutron star (NS) or NS+BH mergers and consist of a 4 solar mass BH with varied spin, girded by a torus with a mass between 0.01 and 0.2 solar masses. The evolution of tori without and with physical shear viscosity is simulated, using a realistic equation of state and following the energy loss and lepton number change due to neutrino emission by a neutrino-trapping scheme. The time-dependent efficiency of converting rest-mass energy to neutrinos is found to reach 10 percent, the efficiency of converting neutrino energy into a pair-photon fireball by neutrino annihilation can reach several percent. The rate of the latter process declines with time much less steeply than the total neutrino luminosity, because the ongoing protonization of the torus ensures a rather stable product of neutrino and antineutrino luminosities. The neutrino emission increases steeply with higher viscosity, larger torus mass, and larger BH spin in corotation with the torus. For rotation rates as expected for post-merger BHs (a > 0.5) and reasonable values of the alpha viscosity (alpha ~ 0.1), the considered tori release sufficient energy in neutrinos to account for the energetics of the well-localized short gamma-ray bursts recently detected by Hete and Swift, if collimation is invoked as predicted by hydrodynamic jet simulations.
