description: The observation of primordial B-modes in the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) represents the main scientific goal of most of the future CMB experiments. This signal is predicted to be much lower than polarised Galactic emission (foregrounds) in any region of the sky pointing to the need for effective components separation methods, such as the Needlet-ILC (NILC). In this work, we explore the possibility of employing NILC for B-mode maps reconstructed from partial-sky data of sub-orbital experiments, addressing the complications that such an application yields: E-B leakage, needlet filtering and beam convolution. We consider two complementary simulated datasets from future experiments: the balloon-borne SWIPE telescope of the Large Scale Polarization Explorer, which targets the observation of both reionisation and recombination peaks of the primordial B-mode angular power spectrum, and the ground-based Small Aperture Telescope of Simons Observatory, which is designed to observe only the recombination bump. We assess the performance of two alternative techniques to correct for the CMB E-B leakage: the recycling technique (Liu et al. 2019) and the ZB method (Zhao & Baskaran 2010). We find that they both reduce the E-B leakage residuals at a negligible level given the sensitivity of the considered experiments, except for the recycling method in the SWIPE patch at $\ell < 20$. Thus, we implement two extensions of the pipeline, the iterative B-decomposition and the diffusive inpainting, which enable us to recover the input CMB B-mode power for $\ell \geq 5$. We demonstrate that needlet filtering and beam convolution do not affect the B-mode reconstruction. Finally, with an appropriate masking strategy, we find that NILC foregrounds subtraction allows to achieve sensitivities for the tensor-to-scalar ratio compatible to the targets of the considered CMB experiments.

description: In the framework of open quantum systems, the propagation of polarized photons can be effectively described using quantum dynamical semigroups. These extended time-evolutions induce irreversibility and dissipation. Planned, high sensitive experiments, both in the laboratory and in space, will be able to put stringent bounds on these non-standard effects.

Ecological impacts of microplastic pollution to temperate freshwater zooplankton under realistic exposure scenarios.
Creators: name: Klasios, Natasha
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2025

description: Plastic pollution has emerged as a widespread environmental issue, and microplastics, defined as plastic particles < 5 mm in size, have been found to contaminate aquatic ecosystems globally. Microplastics are a diverse suite of contaminants with variable physicochemical characteristics, which can affect their fate and effects. Microplastics have demonstrated potential to adversely affect organisms that encounter them, but some studies have not found significant effects on organisms. To improve our understanding of the true ecological impacts of microplastics, this dissertation collected data on the quantities and types of microplastics in temperate freshwater lakes in British Columbia and then used these data to inform the experimental designs of two studies which investigated the impacts of microplastics on a whole zooplankton community and on individual zooplankton. I investigated possible indirect effects of microplastic pollution in the community exposure experiment, and in the individual exposure experiment, temperature was incorporated as an additional stressor, as freshwater environments face multiple stressors simultaneously. Additionally, previous research has demonstrated the toxicity of certain contaminants can worsen with increasing temperature. By using data collected in the field to inform our experimental designs, my experiments were environmentally relevant and representative of exposure scenarios occurring in nature. Polyester fibers, likely from textiles, were found to be widespread across lakes, irrespective of the lakes’ proximity to urbanization. Due to their ubiquity, I used polyester fibers in my experiments. In the 12-week exposure experiment conducted in large, outdoor mesocosms, I found naturally occurring zooplankton communities were not affected in composition or abundance by the microplastics at environmentally relevant concentrations. In the individual zooplankton experiment, I found warmer temperatures did exacerbate the adverse effects observed, predominantly decreased survival, but this was only observed at the highest tested concentration. This work highlights the importance of incorporating environmental relevance into experiments, as my findings contrast with previous studies which utilized unrealistic or unrepresentative microplastic exposure scenarios. By incorporating realistic exposure scenarios with additional stressors, such as temperature, this work advances the field’s understanding of the true hazards of microplastic pollution in this era of global change.

description: We study the growth rate of matter perturbations in the context of teleparallel dark energy in a flat universe. We investigate the dynamics of different theoretical scenarios based on specific forms of the scalar field potential. Allowing for non-minimal coupling between torsion scalar and scalar field, we perform a phase-space analysis of the autonomous systems of equations through the study of critical points. We thus analyze the stability of the critical points, and discuss the cosmological implications searching for possible attractor solutions at late times. Furthermore, combing the growth rate data and the Hubble rate measurements, we place observational constraints on the cosmological parameters of the models through Monte Carlo numerical method. We find that the scenario with a non-minimal coupling is favoured with respect to the standard quintessence case. Adopting the best-fit results, we show that the dark energy equation of state parameter can cross the phantom divide. Finally, we compare our results with the predictions of the concordance $Λ$CDM paradigm by performing Bayesian model selection.

On the radiative and thermodynamic properties of the cosmic radiations using Cobe Firas instrumental data: Sunyaev-Zeldovich distortion effect

Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: General Physics (physics.gen-ph)

description: The Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect is a small spectral distortion of the spectrum of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation. This slight distortion is described by the Bose-Einstein (mu-type) distribution with non-zero chemical potential. It is now interesting to investigate the effect of this distortion on the integral characteristics of the Bose-Einstein spectrum. The thermal radiative and thermodynamic functions of the Bose-Einstein distribution are such integral characteristics. These functions are as follows: a) the total radiation power per unit area; b) total energy density; c) number density of photons; d) grand potential density; e) Helmholtz free energy density; f) entropy density; g) heat capacity at constant volume; h) enthalpy density; and i) pressure. The exact analytical expressions are obtained for the temperature dependences of these functions. Using experimental data measured by the COBE FIRAS instrument, the thermal radiative and thermodynamic functions are calculated at the monopole temperature T = 2.72548 K and at z = 0. A comparative analysis of the results obtained with the results for the same functions of the CMB spectrum is carried out. The thermal radiative and thermodynamic functions of the Bose-Einstein distribution are calculated in the redshift range from 10(5) to 3x10(6). The expressions are obtained for new astrophysical parameters, such as the entropy density/Boltzmann constant and number density, created by the mu- distortion of the CMB spectrum.

description: Altered expression levels of protein-coding genes and microRNAs have been implicated in the pathogenesis of Huntington’s disease (HD). The involvement of other ncRNAs, especially long ncRNAs (lncRNA), is being realized recently and the related knowledge is still rudimentary. Using small RNA sequencing and PCR arrays we observed perturbations in the levels of 12 ncRNAs in HD mouse brain, eight of which had human homologs. Of these, Meg3, Neat1, and Xist showed a consistent and significant increase in HD cell and animal models. Transient knock-down of Meg3 and Neat1 in cell models of HD led to a significant decrease of aggregates formed by mutant huntingtin and downregulation of the endogenous Tp53 expression. Understanding Meg3 and Neat1 functions in the context of HD pathogenesis is likely to open up new strategies to control the disease.

description: We consider the construction of a general tree level amplitude for the interactions between dynamical D-branes where the configurations have non-zero odd spin structure. Using Riemann Theta Identities we map the conditions for the preservation of some supersymmetry to a set of integer matrices satisfying a simple but non-trivial equation. We also show how the regularization of the RR zero modes plays an important role in determining which configurations are permitted.

description: We provide closed-form expressions for the first moments (i.e., the volume and volume-weighted centroid) of a polyhedron clipped by a paraboloid, that is, of a polyhedron intersected with the subset of the three-dimensional real space located on one side of a paraboloid. These closed-form expressions are derived following successive applications of the divergence theorem and the judicious parametrization of the intersection of the polyhedron's faces with the paraboloid. We provide means for identifying ambiguous discrete intersection topologies, and propose a corrective procedure for preventing their occurence. Finally, we put our proposed closed-form expressions and numerical approach to the test with millions of random and manually engineered polyhedron/paraboloid intersection configurations. The results of these tests show that we are able to provide robust machine-accurate estimates of the first moments at a computational cost that is within one order of magnitude of that of state-of-the-art half-space clipping algorithms.

With rotational $O(1/N_c)$ corrections taken into account, we obtain $g_T^{(0)}=0.69$ and $g_T^{(3)}=1.45$ at a low normalization point of several hundreds MeV. Within the same approximation and parameters the model yields $g_A^{(0)}=0.36$, $g_A^{(3)}=1.21$ for axial charges and correct octet--decuplet mass splitting. We show how the chiral quark-soliton model interpolates between the nonrelativistic quark model and the Skyrme model.

description: It is shown that supersymmetry is spontaneously broken in certain three-dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories, by using the s-rule in their string theory realization as brane configurations. In particular, supersymmetry is broken in N=3 supersymmetric Yang-Mills-Chern-Simons theory with gauge group SU(n) and CS coefficient k, as well as in its N=2 and N=1 deformations, when n>|k|. In addition, supersymmetry is broken in the N=1 mass deformation of N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory with gauge group SU(n) and one matter multiplet when n>1. In the latter case the breaking is induced by an instanton-generated repulsive potential.

description: Based on recent proposal to associate IceCube TeV and PeV neutrino events with gamma-ray bursts~(GRBs) by considering the Lorentz violation of neutrinos, we provide a new estimate on the GRB neutrino flux and such result is much bigger than previous results by the IceCube Collaboration. Among these 24 neutrino ``shower" events above 60~TeV, 12 events are associated with GRBs. Such result is comparable with the prediction from GRB fireball models. Analysis of track events provide consistent result with the shower events to associate high energy cosmic neutrinos with GRBs under the same Lorentz violation features of neutrinos. We also make a background estimation and reveal GRBs as a significant source for the ultra-high energy IceCube neutrino events. Our work supports the Lorentz violation and $CPT$-violation of neutrinos, indicating new physics beyond relativity.

description: An approximation of the Standard Regge Calculus (SRC) was proposed by the $Z_2$-Regge Model ($Z_2$RM). There the edge lengths of the simplicial complexes are restricted to only two possible values, both always compatible with the triangle inequalities. To examine the effect of discrete edge lengths, we define two models to describe the transition from the $Z_2$RM to the SRC. These models allow to choose the number of possible link lengths to be $n = {4,8,16,32,64,...}$ and differ mainly in the scaling of the quadratic link lengths. The first extension, the $X^1_n$-Model, keeps the edge lengths limited and still behaves rather similar to the "spin-like" $Z_2$RM. The vanishing critical cosmological constant is reproduced by the second extension, the $X^C_n$-Model, which allows for increasing edge lengths. In addition the area expectation values are consistent with the scaling relation of the SRC.

Constrained principal component analysis for detection of task-based cognitive modes with functional MRI : a comparative analysis of traditional and novel methods
Creators: name: Ly, Huan Nhat Nguyen
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2025

description: Functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) is a powerful neuroimaging technique for studying the spatial and temporal aspects of blood-oxygen level dependent (BOLD) signal changes during performance of specifically designed tasks. To date, task-based fMRI studies have reliably identified twelve cognitive modes, which are anatomical configurations with associated functions that underlie the cognitive, sensory, and motor processes during task performance. To detect these modes, our research group has been employing a traditional method called G-matrix Constrained Principal Component Analysis for fMRI (fMRI–CPCA), which constrains the variance in BOLD signal to variance related to task timing. However, problems can arise if different modes get merged, or when a mode is poorly formed due to the substantially small variance it accounts for. By relying on the now well-established anatomical details of the twelve cognitive modes, we have developed a novel detection method called H-matrix fMRI–CPCA, which constrains the variance in BOLD signal spatially to the prototypical templates of twelve modes. To assess this new method in comparison with G-matrix fMRI–CPCA, we used both methods to analyze fMRI data for healthy adults’ performance of five selected tasks: Antonyms, Letter Comparison, Pattern Comparison, Digit Symbol, and Sensorimotor. G-matrix method produced components in which the modes were merged when they typically get separated into different components. H-matrix method redistributed these modes over more components but may have also produced Type I errors. For Antonyms, Letter Comparison, Pattern Comparison, and Digit Symbol, some merging of modes remained, and interpretation was not improved. Sensorimotor task showed better temporal and spatial separation of modes, and interpretation improved in H-matrix analysis, which was attributable to task design. Antonyms, Letter Comparison, Pattern Comparison, and Digit Symbol were designed similarly and hence shared common weaknesses, specifically the short inter-stimulus interval (0.5s or 0.25s), whereas Sensorimotor used longer intervals (2-26s jittered). Since the selected sample had a wide age range (about 20-80), age was investigated in a secondary analysis. Results from G-matrix analysis suggested that Language, Response, and Default Modes A and B showed age differences, potentially reflecting changes in vocabulary skills and cognitive processing speed associated with healthy ageing.
Seismic Performance Evaluation of Hollow Concrete Block Infilled Reinforced Concrete Buildings
Creators: name: Awayo, Daniel Dibaba
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2019
Subjects: Bare frame, infilled model, capacity curve, limit state capacities, and fragility curves.

description: Masonry infills are usually treated as non-structural elements in buildings, and their
 interaction with the bounding frame is often ignored in analysis and design of reinforced
 concrete structures. Nature, however, makes no such distinction, and tests the whole
 building
 under simulated ground motions and so that many non-structural components may be
 called
 upon to resist applied lateral forces even though not designed for. And infills contribute
 strength to a structure and will interact with the bounding frame when the structure is
 subjected to strong lateral seismic
 loads.
 Effects of hollow concrete block (HCB) infill walls on the seismic performance of the
 buildings has not been properly explored that it would be valuable to study their
 characteristics as their presence has a substantial impact on the structural behavior
 and load
 resisting mechanism. The objective of this study is to evaluate the seismic performance
 of
 HCB infilled reinforced concrete (RC) buildings by adopting probabilistic performance
 assessment approach along with seismic fragility curve developments. For the purpose
 of
 this study, three distinct buildings namely, seven-story, eleven-story and sixteen-story,
 with
 typical floor plan were proposed as the case study. Each building cases are explicitly
 modeled as a bare frame and HCB infilled model with varying percentage of infill
 configurations. Bare RC frame buildings are analyzed and designed based on the
 conventional design approach on ETABS 2016.2.1, while numerical modelling and
 analysis
 of HCB infilled models are simulated on SeismoStruct 2016. Static pushover analysis
 and
 nonlinear dynamic time history analysis were adopted for performance evaluation of the
 case
 study buildings with respect to local and global
 parameters.
 Results of the study showed that increase in initial stiffness, strength, and energy
 dissipation
 of the infilled frame is considerable, compared to the bare frame. Inclusion of infills has
 showed a significant decrease in fundamental vibration period and story
 displacements. Also
 it was found that infills have significant contribution in arresting large lateral deflections
 and
 results in lower and most tolerable story displacements under excited earthquake
 motion;
 and eventually reducing the structure’s probability of failure at life safety and collapse prevention limit states

description: We give a geometric account of kinematic control of a spherical rolling robot controlled by two internal wheels just like the toy robot Sphero. Particularly, we introduce the notion of shape space and fibers to the system by exploiting its symmetry and the principal bundle structure of its configuration space; the shape space encodes the rotational angles of the wheels, whereas each fiber encodes the translational and rotational configurations of the robot for a particular shape. We show that the system is fiber controllable---meaning any translational and rotational configuration modulo shapes is reachable---as well as find exact expressions of the geometric phase or holonomy under some particular controls. We also solve an optimal control problem of the spherical robot, show that it is completely integrable, and find an explicit solution of the problem.

description: In a nontrivial background geometry with extra dimensions, gravitational effects will depend on the shape of the Kaluza-Klein excitations of the graviton. We investigate a consistent scenario of this type with two positive tension three-branes separated in a five-dimensional Anti-de Sitter geometry. The graviton is localized on the ``Planck'' brane, while a gapless continuum of additional gravity eigenmodes probe the {\it infinitely} large fifth dimension. Despite the background five-dimensional geometry, an observer confined to either brane sees gravity as essentially four-dimensional up to a position-dependent strong coupling scale, no matter where the brane is located. We apply this scenario to generate the TeV scale as a hierarchically suppressed mass scale. Arbitrarily light gravitational modes appear in this scenario, but with suppressed couplings. Real emission of these modes is observable at future colliders; the effects are similar to those produced by {\it six} large toroidal dimensions.

Electrochemical insights into bacterial physiology : electron transfer and metabolite detection
Creators: name: Yavarinasab, Adel
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2025

description: The main goal of this thesis is to apply electrochemical techniques, with a focus on electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, to improve our understanding of different aspects of bacterial physiology, specifically electrochemistry of biofilm and production of specific metabolites from intestinal bacteria. We first analyzed the electron transfer properties of biofilms, which are crucial for nutrient cycling and bacterial pathogenesis in the model organism Bacillus subtilis. We used interdigitated gold electrodes to measure the electrochemical activity of biofilm-forming B. subtilis and biofilm-deficient mutants over three days. Chronoamperometry and cyclic voltammetry revealed current fluctuations and significant differences in voltammograms, likely due to redox-active molecules present only in the biofilm-forming cells. Additionally, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy identified charge transfer resistance exclusively in biofilm-forming cells. Finally, by using confocal microscopy, we identified a correlation between gene expression in biofilm matrix formation genes and charge transfer. These findings highlight the temporal relationship between biofilm-associated electrochemical activity and gene expression. We were able to offer a novel method, real-time electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, for detecting biofilm-related electrochemical processes. The second topic of this work is the development of an electrochemical sensor for real-time, quantitative, and direct measurement of short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs), as key metabolites produced by gut bacteria. The sensor, made by depositing ZnO and polyvinyl alcohol on a gold electrode, detects acetic acid, propionic acid, and butyric acid at concentrations from 0.5 to 20 mg/ml. The sensor demonstrated its ability to measure SCFAs in the liquid phase at room temperature, unlike previous sensors that required gas-phase detection. Impedance measurements were also used to analyze the sensor's performance in complex media, showing accurate measurements across a range of 0.5 to 10 mg/ml SCFA concentrations. The sensor's Faradaic responses were utilized to develop a model for screening bacterial isolates, identifying those that secrete SCFAs in vitro. This sensor provides a stable, sensitive, and miniaturized method for real-time monitoring of SCFA levels in complex biological samples, offering a fast and non-destructive diagnostic tool. In conclusion, this thesis enhances our understanding of bacterial physiology by applying electrochemical techniques and offering valuable tools for precise monitoring of microbial activity and metabolism.

description: We present a simple covariant constituent diquark-quark model for the nucleon. The nucleon is assumed to be composed of a scalar diquark and a quark which interact via a quark exchange. Starting from the Bethe-Salpeter equation, the instantaneous approximation leads to a diquark-quark Salpeter equation. In the Mandelstam formalism, the electromagnetic form factors of the nucleon are calculated for momentum transfers up to $q^2 = - 3 \; (\mbox{GeV/c})^2$. A remarkable description of the experimental data is obtained. Especially, the model gives nearly the right values for the proton and (negative) neutron charge radii, and a qualitative description of the magnetic form factors.

description: The Bursting Pulsar, GRO J1744-28, has been observed with the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer (RXTE) regularly since the launch of the satellite in December 1995. This accretion driven pulsar has undergone two outbursts which have been accompanied by significant spin-up of the pulsar. Between these two outbursts, the pulsar was detectable during each observation down to fluxes perhaps one thousandth of the persistent flux at the peak of the first outburst. We observe evidence of a change in the sign of the frequency derivative during the faintest period but the relationship between the observed luminosity and the frequency derivative is complex.

description: Entangled photon pair sources based on bulk optics are approaching optimal design and implementation, with high state fidelities, spectral purities and heralding efficiencies, but generally low brightness. Integrated entanglement sources, while providing higher brightness and low-power operation, often sacrifice performance in output state quality and coupling efficiency. Here we present a polarization-entangled pair source based on a hybrid approach of waveguiding and bulk optics, addressing every metric simultaneously. We show 96% fidelity to the singlet state, 82% Hong-Ou-Mandel interference visibility, 43% average Klyshko efficiency, and a high brightness of $2.9\times10^6$ pairs/(mode$\cdot$s$\cdot$mW), while requiring only microwatts of pump power.

description: Quantum sensing exploits fundamental features of quantum mechanics and quantum control to realise sensing devices with potential applications in a broad range of scientific fields ranging from basic science to applied technology. The ultimate goal are devices that combine unprecedented sensitivity with excellent spatial resolution. Here, we propose a new platform for all-electric nanoscale quantum sensing based on a carbon nanotube double quantum dot. Our analysis demonstrates that the platform can achieve sensitivities that allow for the implementation of single-molecule magnetic resonance spectroscopy and therefore opens a promising route towards integrated on-chip quantum sensing devices.

Multiparticle singlet states cannot be maximally entangled for the bipartitions

description: One way to explore multiparticle entanglement is to ask for maximal entanglement with respect to different bipartitions, leading to the notion of absolutely maximally entangled states or perfect tensors. A different path uses unitary invariance and symmetries, resulting in the concept of multiparticle singlet states. We show that these two concepts are incompatible in the sense that the space of pure multiparticle singlet states does not contain any state for which all partitions of two particles versus the rest are maximally entangled. This puts restrictions on the construction of quantum codes and contributes to discussions in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence and quantum gravity.

Modeling hydrodynamic interactions in non-spherical particle-laden flows : numerical simulations and machine learning models
Creators: name: Jbara, Layal
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2025

description: Particle-laden flows, involving solid particles suspended in a fluid, are prevalent in many natural and industrial applications. These flows manifest rich flow physics and pose unique modeling challenges. The dynamics of the two phases are strongly coupled, giving rise to spatio-temporal nonlinear interactions. This multi-scale nature poses significant challenges for achieving accurate two-way coupling in real-world applications. The key contributions of this PhD dissertation are twofold: (i) to deepen the understanding of the hydrodynamic forces driving the particle-fluid momentum transport in these flows, particularly focusing on non-spherical particles and (ii) to advance closure law modeling of these forces by integrating physical insights derived from high-fidelity numerical simulations into tailored architectures of Machine Learning (ML) methodologies. We first investigate the influence of shape using superquadric geometries, which allow controlled deviations from sphericity. We show that particle shape, orientation, and Reynolds number significantly affect the flow and hydrodynamic forces. Extending this to pairwise interactions, we show that neighboring particle arrangements drive local force disturbances. These interactions exhibit periodicity, which we capture using a Fourier series, offering a compact and interpretable modeling framework. We leverage ML to develop a multi-scale approach to modeling higher-order interactions. Building on a hierarchical model, we incorporate quaternary interactions and explicitly account for global and local heterogeneities. This significantly improves predictive accuracy, especially for streamwise drag, surpassing lower-order interaction models. Further, we introduce a novel attention-based Graph Neural Network architecture. This model captures complex spatial, geometric, and relational dependencies, demonstrating superior performance in predicting streamwise forces at low Reynolds numbers and volume fractions. While challenges remain in predicting transverse forces and torques at higher Reynolds numbers, this work lays the groundwork for data-driven multi-scale modeling of particle-laden flows. Overall, this dissertation offers new insights into the interplay of particle shape, flow structure, and hydrodynamic forces, advancing both our understanding and predictive capabilities in particle-laden suspensions.
