description: Στη παρούσα διπλωματική διατριβή θα μελετηθεί η οριακή συνθήκη πάνω από την οποία παρατηρούμε καθολική μακροσκοπική συμπεριφορά, όσων αφορά την εμφάνιση τοπολογικών ατελειών σε μονοδιάστατες αλυσίδες ατόμων κατά μια διεργασία μεταβολής φάσης κατά Landau. Το σύστημα έχει μεταβλητό αριθμό διαστάσεων/εξισώσεων, μιας και το μέγεθος του αντικειμένου αποτελεί το προς μελέτη αντικείμενο. Δοκιμάζοντας αλυσίδες διαφορετικών μεγεθών θα υλοποιήσουμε προσομοιώσεις που περιγράφουν τη μεταβολή φάσης δεύτερης τάξης και θα δούμε το πως επιδρά το μέγεθος του συστήματος στις τελικές καταστάσεις. Θα δούμε επίσης την επίδραση του μεγίστου μεγέθους των τυχαίων βημάτων. Οι εξισώσεις που περιγράφουν την αλυσίδα είναι στοχαστικές διαφορικές εξισώσεις ( Langevin) και μέσω αργή ψύξης θα οδηγηθούμε από την οριακή συνθήκη στη τελική θερμοκρασία όπου και θα έχουν εμφανιστεί οι τοπολογικές ατέλειες. Η διαδικασία είναι στην ουσία μεταβολή φάσης κατά Landau δεύτερης τάξης. Ο γενικός μηχανισμός μέσω του οποίου εμφανίζονται οι ατέλειες είναι αυτός του Kibble -Zurek, του οποίου τα χαρακτηριστικά έχουν μελετηθεί αρκετά στο παρελθόν
description: In this thesis we will study the boundary condition existing in the universal macroscopic behaviour behind the emergence of topological defects in one dimensional chains of atoms. The system has a variable number of dimensions, since the chain size is the size under scrutiny. We will try different chain sizes in order to find the number of atoms under which the macroscopic expectations we have are not true, based on statistics. We will also see how the walk size affects the domain formation in this problem. The equations describing the chain are stochastic differential equations (Langevin equations) and the process leading to the emergence of the defects is a slow quenching, based on the Landau theorem for second order phase transitions. The expected behaviour is the one described in the Kibble -Zurek mechanism, which we will consider is modelling the universal behaviour

description: In this paper we revisit the main properties of the partitive (PC) and the pseudopartitive construction (PPC) in Greek placing our focus on the distribution of the preposition apo ‘of/from’, which introduces the partitive complement in the PC but is absent from the PPC. We propose two distinct analyses for the two constructions, which predict the particular distribution of apo as a meaningful preposition, according to our hypothesis. We further discuss the crosslinguistic implications of our analysis.

description: We study the weak decays of $\bar{B}_{(s)}$ and $B_c$ into $D$-wave heavy-light mesons, including $J^P=2^-$ ($D_{(s)2},D'_{(s)2},B_{(s)2}, B'_{(s)2}$) and $3^-$~($D^*_{(s)3}, B^*_{(s)3}$) states. The weak decay hadronic matrix elements are achieved based on the instantaneous Bethe-Salpeter method. The branching ratios for $\bar{B}$ decays are $\mathcal{B}[\bar{B}\to D_{2}e\barν_e] = 1.1^{-0.3}_{+0.3} \times 10^{-3}$, $\mathcal{B}[\bar{B}\to D'_2e\barν_e]=4.1^{-0.8}_{+0.9} \times 10^{-4}$, and $\mathcal{B}[\bar{B}\to D^*_3e\barν_e]=1.0^{-0.2}_{+0.2} \times 10^{-3}$, respectively. For semi-electronic decays of $\bar B_s$ to $D_{s2}$, $D'_{s2}$, and $D^*_{s3}$, the corresponding branching ratios are $1.7^{-0.5}_{+0.5}\times 10^{-3}$, $5.2^{-1.5}_{+1.6}\times 10^{-4}$, and $1.5^{-0.4}_{+0.4}\times 10^{-3}$, respectively. The branching ratios of semi-electronic decays of $B_c$ to $D$-wave $D$ mesons are in the order of $10^{-5}$. We also achieved the forward-backward asymmetry, angular spectra, and lepton momentum spectra. In particular the distribution of decay widths for $2^-$ states $D_2$ and $D'_2$ varying along with mixing angle are presented.

description: Die unterschiedlichen Bezeichnungen für Menschen, die in Deutschland um Asyl nachsuchen, resultieren aus dem jeweils unterschiedlichen Schutzstatus, den das bundesdeutsche wie auch das europäische Recht Menschen auf der Flucht gewähren. Unterschieden wird dabei zwischen dem Status als asylberechtige Person nach Art. 16 A des Grundgesetzes (GG) bzw. nach § 2 des Asylgesetzes (AsylG), dem Status als ‚Flüchtling‘ nach der Genfer Flüchtlingskonvention (GFK) bzw. nach § 3 AsylG sowie dem Status als subsidiär Schutzberechtigte:r nach EU-Recht bzw. § 4 AsylG. Dieses differenzierte System der Schutzgewährung für Menschen auf der Flucht ist das Ergebnis einer über Jahrzehnte andauernden juristischen, politischen und öffentlichen Auseinandersetzung um die Frage, wem in der Bonner und später in der Berliner Republik nach dem Grundgesetz Asyl gewährt werden sollte. Der Beitrag analysiert anhand der kontroversen Diskussionen um die Asylgewährung zwischen 1948 und den 1990er Jahre die sich wandelnden Begrifflichkeiten im Bereich Asyl und Flucht. Es wird gezeigt, dass sich die Begriffe, mit denen über Asyl und Flucht gesprochen wurde, zwar an den jeweils gültigen juristischen Sprachregeln orientierten. Sie waren aber auch immer politisch überformt, weil sie die entweder zustimmende oder abwehrende Positionen der jeweiligen Akteur:innen zum Ausdruck brachten.

A Single Zone Synchrotron Model for Flares of PKS 1510-089

Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)

description: PKS 1510-089 is one of the most variable blazars. Very high energy gamma ray emission from this source was observed by H.E.S.S. during March-April 2009 and by MAGIC from February 3 to April 3, 2012 quasi-simultaneously with multi-wavelength flares. The spectral energy distributions of these flares have been modeled earlier with the external Compton mechanism which depends on our knowledge of the densities of the seed photons in the broad line region, the dusty infrared torus or a hypothetical slow sheath surrounding the jet around the radio core. Here we show that to explain the multi-wavelength data with synchrotron emission of electrons and protons the jet power should be of the order of 10^48 ergs/sec.

description: In this paper, we analyze convergence and supercloseness properties of a class of weak Galerkin (WG) finite element methods for solving second-order elliptic problems. It is shown that the WG solution is superclose to the Lagrange type interpolation using Lobatto points. This supercloseness behavior is obtained through some newly designed stabilization terms. A post-processing technique using the polynomial preserving recovery (PPR) is introduced for WG approximation. Superconvergence analysis is carried out for the PPR approximation. Numerical examples are provided to verify our theoretical results.

description: Διανύουμε μια εποχή όπου οι εξελίξεις της τεχνολογίας επηρεάζουν σε μεγάλο βαθμό την καθημερινότητα μας. Μια από αυτές είναι τα αυτόνομα αυτοκίνητα (autonomous vehicles, AVs), τα οποία θα αποτελέσουν μια ακόμη μεγάλη τεχνολογική επανάσταση. Η αυτόνομη οδήγηση έχει την προοπτική να αλλάξει ριζικά το αστικό τοπίο και να σώσει πολλές ανθρώπινες ζωές. Ένα αυτόνομο αυτοκίνητο είναι ένα όχημα ικανό να ανιχνεύσει και να εντοπίζει τους περιβαλλοντικούς παράγοντες που περικλείουν το όχημα. Για να επιτευχθεί αυτό, το όχημα αξιοποιεί αρκετούς αισθητήρες μαζί με εξελιγμένους αλγόριθμους ανίχνευσης και παρακολούθησης. Αυτοί οι αλγόριθμοι βασίζονται στη μηχανική μάθηση και αυτό οδηγεί στην ανάγκη δημιουργίας μιας βάσης δεδομένων. Η ανίχνευση αντικειμένων παίζει σημαντικό ρόλο στην ανάπτυξη της τεχνολογίας των αυτόνομων αυτοκινήτων. Η παρούσα διπλωματική εργασία μελετάει μια σειρά από μοντέλα για την ανίχνευση αντικειμένων. Συγκεκριμένα, αναλύει τις πρώτες 3 μεθόδους που αναπτύχθηκαν για την ανίχνευση αντικειμένων (PointPillars, Megvii, MonoDIS), οι οποίες εκπαιδεύονται χρησιμοποιώντας τη βάση δεδομένων nuScenes. Σκοπός του καθενός είναι να τοποθετήσει ένα 3D bounding box γύρω από 10 διαφορετικές κατηγορίες αντικειμένων. Οι μετρικές αξιολόγησης που θα χρησιμοποιήσουμε είναι οι Mean Average Precision (mAP), Mean Average Translation Error (mATE), Mean Average Scale Error (mASE), Mean Average Orientation Error (mAOE), Mean Average Velocity Error (mAVE), Mean Average Attribute Error (mAAE) και nuScenes Detection Score (NDS)
description: We live in an era where the developments of the technology greatly affect out daily lives. One of them in the autonomous vehicles, which will be another great technological revolution. Autonomous driving has the potential of radically changing the cityscape and saving many human lives. An autonomous vehicle is a car capable of track and detect the environmental agents surrounding the vehicle. To achieve this, the vehicle deploys several sensors along with sophisticated detection and tracking algorithms. These algorithms are based on machine learning and this leads to the need to create a dataset. Object detection plays an important role in the development of autonomous vehicles technology. This thesis studies a series of models for object detection. Specifically, it the first 3 methods that they developed for object detection (PointPillars, Megvii, MonoDIS), which are trained using the nuScenes dataset. The aim of each is to place a 3D bounding box around 10 different object categories. The evaluation metrics we will use are Mean Average Precision (mAP), Mean Average Translation Error (mATE), Mean Average Scale Error (mASE), Mean Average Orientation Error (mAOE), Mean Average Velocity Error (mAVE), Mean Average Attribute Error (mAAE) and nuScenes Detection Score (NDS)

description: It has become apparent in recent years that it is important, notably for a range of physics studies at the Large Hadron Collider, to have accurate knowledge on the distribution of photons in the proton. We show how the photon parton distribution function (PDF) can be determined in a model-independent manner, using electron-proton ($ep$) scattering data, in effect viewing the $ep\to e+X$ process as an electron scattering off the photon field of the proton. To this end, we consider an imaginary, beyond Standard Model process with a flavour changing photon-lepton vertex. We write its cross section in two ways, one in terms of proton structure functions, the other in terms of a photon distribution. Requiring their equivalence yields the photon distribution as an integral over proton structure functions. As a result of the good precision of $ep$ data, we constrain the photon PDF at the level of 1-2% over a wide range of momentum fractions.

description: In the heart of this thesis are complex systems simulations, based on a stochastic model of interacting agents. Starting from the core principles of the NetLogo's "Fireflies" optical oscillator model (Wilensky, 1997), the new model "fireflies-rw" is modified by (a) the treatment of the oscillator-agents as classical random-walkers interacting on a square 2D lattice, and (b) the introduction of the oscillators' discrete phase order. To support this model, a new simulation software has been developed, allowing the investigation of collective statistical properties in variable-density populations of oscillator-agents. This investigation covers the evolution of the systems from random initial conditions all the way to their complete self-organization (full oscillator synchronization), while tracking the emergence of notable collective behaviors exhibited by the complex systems

description: We introduce a novel non-local ingredient for the construction of exchange density functionals: the reduced Hartree parameter, which is invariant under the uniform scaling of the density and represents the exact exchange enhancement factor for one- and two-electron systems. The reduced Hartree parameter is used together with the conventional meta-generalized gradient approximation (meta-GGA) semilocal ingredients (i.e. the electron density, its gradient and the kinetic energy density) to construct a new generation exchange functional, termed u-meta-GGA. This u-meta-GGA functional is exact for {the exchange of} any one- and two-electron systems, is size-consistent and non-empirical, satisfies the uniform density scaling relation, and recovers the modified gradient expansion derived from the semiclassical atom theory. For atoms, ions, jellium spheres, and molecules, it shows a good accuracy, being often better than meta-GGA exchange functionals. Our construction validates the use of the reduced Hartree ingredient in exchange-correlation functional development, opening the way to an additional rung in the Jacob's ladder classification of non-empirical density functionals.

description: With an increase in high school sports participation, there is a high demand for strength and conditioning programs, specifically for their role in improving athletic performance. However, the provision of strength and conditioning for the high school athlete can be inconsistent in its delivery. Therefore, athletes have turned to supplemental strength and conditioning such as services provided by private facilities. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of different strength and conditioning training frequencies (1, 2, or 3+ sessions per week) on linear speed (0-9.14-m [10-yard] and 0-18.29-m [20-yard] sprint), lower-body power (standing broad jump [SBJ]), hitting velocity, throwing velocity, and lower-body strength (3RM front squat and 3RM trap bar deadlift [TBD]) in high school-aged softball players. Retrospective analysis was conducted on 30 high school softball athletes (age = 15.2 ± 1.0 years; height = 167.2 ± 6.9 m; body mass = 62.7 ± 8.8 kg) from a strength and conditioning facility that specializes in training softball athletes. The athletes completed an 8-week strength and conditioning program at the facility, and they came from various high schools. Data was analyzed via a two-way repeated measures analysis of variance (p < 0.05), including groups as a between-subjects factor measured at three levels (1 [G1W], 2 [G2W], or 3+ [G3+W] sessions per week). Post hoc tests were performed using the Bonferroni adjustment procedure. G1W, G2W, and G3+W saw significant improvements in the 9.14-m sprint (p = .021), SBJ (p < .001), hitting velocity (p = .006), 3RM front squat (p < .001), and 3RM TBD tests (p < .001). The results from this study showed that an 8-week strength and conditioning program in high school athletes can deliver improvements in fitness and motor skills. These results provide support for providing girls with access to properly structured and supervised strength and conditioning programs as they could improve their physical performance.

description: Στην παρούσα μελέτη προσεγγίζουμε ερευνητικά τη διάβαση εντός της ιστορίας του Ιερού Ναού των Αγίων Αναργύρων στο Επταπύργιο, μέσα από χειρόγραφα, ιστορικά αρχεία, μαρτυρίες και προφορική παράδοση. Η πορεία της διαδρομής μέχρι σήμερα σύμφωνα με αδιάσειστες μαρτυρίες, έχει την αρχή της στο βάθος των αιώνων. Τα δεδομένα της έρευνας μας οδηγούν στο συμπέρασμα, ότι η ύπαρξη του ιερού ναού των Αγίων Αναργύρων δεν είναι τυχαία στο Επταπύργιο. Υπήρχε μονή των Αγίων Αναργύρων χωρίς να γνωρίζουμε την ακριβή τοποθεσία και τον συγκεκριμένο χρόνο ίδρυσης. Επί Τουρκοκρατίας και μετά την άλωση της Θεσσαλονίκης το 1430 η ύπαρξη της μονής των Αγίων Αναργύρων δεν μαρτυρείται. Στην τοποθεσία της σημερινής εκκλησίας των Αγίων Αναργύρων χτίστηκε τζαμί από τον Popara Baba-zade Çelebi Hüseyin Bey περίπου τον 16ο αι. ή τον 17ο αι. Το τζαμί μετατράπηκε σε χριστιανικό ναό των Αγίων Αναργύρων το 1926, το οποίο αργότερα γκρεμίστηκε για την κατασκευή του νέου ναού των Αγίων Αναργύρων, ο οποίος εγκαινιάστηκε το 1959.
description: In the present study, we research the transition within the history of the Holy Church of Saints Anargyroi in Eptapyrgio, through manuscripts, historical records, testimonies, and oral tradition. To this day, the course of the route according to unshakable testimonies has its beginnings in the depths of the centuries. The research data leads us to conclude that the holy temple of Saints Anargyroi is not accidental in Eptapyrgio. There was a monastery of Saints Anargyroi without knowing the exact location and the specific time of foundation. During the Turkish occupation and after the fall of Thessaloniki in 1430, the existence of the monastery of Saints Anargyroi is not documented. A mosque was built by Popara Baba-zade Çelebi Hüseyin Bey, around the 16th and 17th century, where today’s church of Saints Anargyroi is located. The mosque was converted into a Christian church of Saints Anargyroi in 1926 which was later demolished for the construction of the new church of Saints Anargyroi which was inaugurated in 1959

description: Based on Islamic teachings, there is no religious justification for denying women and girls their right to education. Islam promotes inclusivity and women’s empowerment through education, while the hijab should not restrict access to education or societal participation. The government must uphold the rights of women and girls, including their right to education, to create an inclusive society. Supporting women’s education aligns with Islamic principles and is crucial for societal progress and development. Educated women contribute to positive change and the well-being of their communities. The state should ensure equal access to education for women and girls, aligning with Islam and fostering a prosperous and inclusive society in Afghanistan.
The birth of the universe in a new G-Theory approach

description: Recently, Padmanabhan has discussed that the expansion of the cosmic space is due to the difference between the number of degrees of freedom on the boundary surface and the number of degrees of freedom in a bulk region. Now, a natural question arises that how these degrees of freedom are emerged from nothing? We try to address this issue in a new theory which is more complete than M-theory and reduces to it with some limitations. In M-theory, there isn't any stable object like stable M3-branes that our universe is formed on it and for this reason can't help us to explain cosmological events. In this research, we propose a new theory, named G -theory which could be the mother of M-theory and superstring theory. In G-theory, at the beginning, two types of G0-branes, one with positive energy and one with negative energy are produced from nothing in fourteen dimensions. Then, these branes are compactified on three circles via two different ways (symmetrically and anti-symmetrically), and two bosonic and fermionic parts of action for M0-branes are produced. By joining M0-branes, supersymmetric Mp-branes are created which contain the equal number of degrees of freedom for fermions and bosons. Our universe is constructed on one of Mp-branes and other Mp-brane and extra energy play the role of bulk. By dissolving extra energy which is produced by compacting actions of Gp-branes, into our universe, the number of degrees of freedom on it and also it's scale factor increase and universe expands. We test G-theory with observations and find that the the magnitude of the slow-roll parameters and the tensor-to-scalar ratio in this model are very smaller than one which are in agreement with predictions of experimental data. Finally, we consider the origin of the extended theories of gravity in G-theory and show that these theories could be anomaly free.

title: Defect level identification in acceptor-doped polycrystalline barium titanate
Creators: name: Lohaus, Katharina Natalie Silvana
Publisher: name: UNSPECIFIED
Year: 2023

description: The major objective of this work is the development and qualification of two promising approaches for defect level identification in acceptor-doped polycrystalline barium titanate. To allow measurements on defined high-quality samples, undoped, Mn- and Fe-doped polycrystalline BaTiO₃ ceramics with different acceptor-doping concentrations have been synthesized via the conventional solid-state-reaction method. The influence of acceptor-doping on the microstructure and crystal structure has been investigated by means of SEM, EBSD, and XRD analysis. After exceeding a dopant-dependent threshold value, the phase fraction of the hexagonal polymorph increases with further increase in doping concentration. The appearance of the non-ferroelectric hexagonal polymorph had considerable consequences for the microstructure as well as the temperature-dependent permittivity and the ferroelectric behavior (P-E loops). The first goal of this work was to elaborate, if the defect energy levels in acceptor-doped polycrystalline BaTiO₃ can be identified using X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. For this purpose, the Fermi level position during contact formation of RuO₂, PtOₓ, and Sn-doped In₂O₃ electrodes to polycrystalline BaTiO₃ ceramics with different Mn-doping and oxygen vacancy concentrations has been examined by means of XPS. In addition, the experimental data has been used to simulate the contact formation between RuO₂ and reduced Mn-doped BaTiO₃. The combination of experiment and simulation revealed that the interface approach is only utilizable for low-permittivity materials. The second goal of this work was to elaborate, to which extent re-oxidation experiments can be used to identify the defect energy levels in acceptor-doped polycrystalline BaTiO₃. For this purpose, Mn- and Fe-doped polycrystalline BaTiO₃ specimens have been slowly re-oxidized by temperature cycling, while the DC-conductivity was monitored. In addition, the different contributions to the electronic conductivity have been simulated using MATLAB. The comparison between simulated and experimental activation energy evolution revealed considerable differences. This indicates that the current simulation tool did not capture all effects, which contribute to the electronic conductivity. To this state, no reliable defect level identification and quantitative description of the re-oxidation experiments is possible, yet. However, the obtained results enabled a quantitative understanding of space charge region characteristics at grain boundaries. Finally, the influence of Mn- and Fe-doping on the resistance degradation of polycrystalline BaTiO₃ has been investigated. Both acceptors increased the lifetime of polycrystalline BaTiO₃, with Mn-doping being significantly more efficient than Fe-doping.

More-than-book worlds: a study of childhood in a public library
Creators: name: Schriver, Jessica
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2023

description: More-than-Book Worlds is an interdisciplinary exercise in collecting information across disciplines to develop a childhood studies reading of childhood construction in the library. In an effort to collect a robust image of the constructions of childhood in libraries, I sweep areas of history, architecture, and geography, studying material culture through the scaffolding of posthuman theory. Childhood studies is a multi-disciplinary field of research that takes into consideration the complex systems playing out in broader understandings of what is a child. While scholars debate how to answer that question, there is an overarching importance put on capturing data on childhood to better understand what we mean when we talk about the child, children, or childhood. Libraries are important sites of inquiry for childhood studies because it serves as a confluence of social constructs: gender, race, disability, literacy, and class all seem to meet in the children’s reading room. My project focuses specifically on the built environment of the children’s area in a public library.

Tensor Minkowski Functionals: first application to the CMB

description: Tensor Minkowski Functionals (TMFs) are tensorial generalizations of the usual Minkowski Functionals which are scalar quantities. We introduce them here for use in cosmological analysis, in particular to analyze CMB maps. They encapsulate information about the shapes and the orientation of structures. We focus on one of the TMFs, namely $W_2^{1,1}$, which is the generalization of the genus. The ratio of the eigenvalues of the average of $W_2^{1,1}$ over all structures, $α$, encodes the net orientation; and the average of the ratios of the eigenvalues of $W_2^{1,1}$ for each structure, $β$, encodes the net anisotropy. We have developed a code that computes $W_2^{1,1}$, and from it $α$ and $β$, for a set of structures on the plane. We compute $α$ and $β$ as functions of threshold levels for simulated Gaussian and isotropic CMB fields. We obtain $α$ to be one for both temperature and $E$ mode, which means that we recover the input statistical isotropy of density fluctuations in the simulations. The level of net anisotropy of hotspots and coldspots in the CMB fields is quantified by $β\sim 0.62$. Then we compute $α$ and $β$ for data from PLANCK. We find that the temperature field agrees with the standard LCDM prediction of no net orientation within $3-σ$. However, we find that $E$ mode data shows a net orientation that deviates from the theoretical expectation at $14-σ$. The possible origin of this deviation may be instrumental effects or other sources and needs to be investigated further. For the net anisotropy we obtain values of $β$ for both temperature and $E$ mode that are consistent with the expectations from the standard LCDM simulations. Accurate measurements of $α$ and $β$ can be used to test the standard model of cosmology and to search for deviations from it.
