description: The discrepancies in claims of experimental evidence in the search for weakly interacting massive particle (WIMP) dark matter necessitate a model for ionization efficiency (the quenching factor) at energies below 10 keV. We have carefully studied the physics processes that contribute to the ionization efficiency through stopping power. The focus of this work is the construction of a model for the ionization efficiency in germanium by analyzing the components of stopping power, specifically that of the nuclear stopping power, at low energies. We find a fraction of the ZBL nuclear stopping power can contribute to ionization efficiency. We propose a model that corrects the missing contribution to ionization efficiency from the ZBL nuclear stopping power. The proposed model is compared to previous measurements of ionization efficiency in germanium as well as that of other theoretical models. Using this new model, the thresholds of both CDMS II and CoGeNT are analyzed and compared in terms of the nuclear recoil energy.

description: SARS-CoV-2 reinfections increased substantially after Omicron variants emerged. Large-scale community-based comparisons across multiple Omicron waves of reinfection characteristics, risk factors, and protection afforded by previous infection and vaccination, are limited. Here we studied ~45,000 reinfections from the UK's national COVID-19 Infection Survey and quantified the risk of reinfection in multiple waves, including those driven by BA.1, BA.2, BA.4/5, and BQ.1/CH.1.1/XBB.1.5 variants. Reinfections were associated with lower viral load and lower percentages of self-reporting symptoms compared with first infections. Across multiple Omicron waves, estimated protection against reinfection was significantly higher in those previously infected with more recent than earlier variants, even at the same time from previous infection. Estimated protection against Omicron reinfections decreased over time from the most recent infection if this was the previous or penultimate variant (generally within the preceding year). Those 14-180 days after receiving their most recent vaccination had a lower risk of reinfection than those >180 days from their most recent vaccination. Reinfection risk was independently higher in those aged 30-45 years, and with either low or high viral load in their most recent previous infection. Overall, the risk of Omicron reinfection is high, but with lower severity than first infections; both viral evolution and waning immunity are independently associated with reinfection.

description: A cascaded dual-loop organic Rankine cycle (CD-ORC) consisting of a high-temperature ORC (HT-ORC) and a low-temperature ORC (LT-ORC) with a shared heat exchanger is studied. Thermal efficiency is investigated as a key indicator for system performance over a wide range of heat source temperature ranging from 170 °C to 330 °C. The relation between the thermal efficiency and the critical temperature of the working fluids is explored. For this purpose, six alkanes and 31 refrigerants with a low GWP (≤150) are considered as working fluids in the HT-ORC and the LT-ORC, respectively. Cyclohexane and cyclopentane are found to be suitable for the HT-ORC with a maximum thermal efficiency of 19.13% and 18.03%. The thermal efficiency of both loops is highly affected by the working fluids since it increases with the critical temperature. As a whole, the CD-ORC may achieve a total thermal efficiency of 25.24%, 24.88% and 24.60% when using the working fluid combinations cyclohexane-R1366mzz(Z), cyclohexane-R1233zd(E) or cyclohexane-butane. This indicates that low GWP refrigerants are well-suited for LT-ORC. Compared to regular ORC, CD-ORC systems may achieve a thermal efficiency that is better by around a quarter.

description: MicroRNA-mediated regulation of gene expression is characterised by some distinctive features that set it apart from unregulated and transcription factor-regulated gene expression. Recently, a mathematical model has been proposed to describe the dynamics of post-transcriptional regulation by microRNAs. The model explains the observations made in single cell experiments quite well. In this paper, we introduce some additional features into the model and consider two specific cases. In the first case, a non-cooperative positive feedback loop is included in the transcriptional regulation of the target gene expression. In the second case, a stochastic version of the original model is considered in which there are random transitions between the inactive and active expression states of the gene. In the first case we show that bistability is possible in a parameter regime, due to the presence of a non-linear protein decay term in the gene expression dynamics. In the second case, we derive the conditions for obtaining stochastic binary gene expression. We find that this type of gene expression is more favourable in the case of regulation by microRNAs as compared to the case of unregulated gene expression. The theoretical predictions relating to binary gene expression are experimentally testable.

Inference of rates across sites via an expectation maximization algorithm
Creators: name: Zhao, Tingting
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: The rates of nucleotide substitution can be different from genes to genes. Moreover, different regions of the same gene can have different rates of mutation as well. Many attempts have been tried to allow for the variable rates across different nucleotide sites. A rate factor coming from the continuous distribution has been introduced to deal with the problem. However, for computation reasons, this method can only scale to less than a dozen sequences. Later studies use a discrete gamma distribution to approximate the gamma distribution. The main contribution of our work is that we propose a discrete distribution over the rate factor which is more flexible while preserving attractive computational properties. We make inference about the rate factor and its distribution via an Expectation Maximization (EM) algorithm. We evaluate our method by both simulations and a real dataset. From the real dataset, it reflects that the method is useful for large phylogenies with even thousands of sequences. We analyze the identifiability of our model for a pair of DNA sequences under certain conditions. We also prove for certain types of rate matrices, this model is non-identifiable.

description: The angular momentum of a star is an important astrophysical quantity related to its internal structure, formation and evolution. On average, helioseismology yields S = 1.92 10^41 kg m^2 s^-1 for the angular momentum of the Sun. We show how it should be possible to measure or, at least, constrain it in a near future by using the gravitomagnetic Lense-Thirring effect predicted by general relativity for the orbit of a test particle moving around a central rotating body. We also discuss the present-day situation in view of the latest determinations of the supplementary perihelion precession of Mercury.

description: The quantum fluctuations of an "accelerated" vacuum state, that is vacuum fluctuations in the presence of a constant electromagnetic field, can be described by the temperature $\TEH$. Considering $\TEH$ for the gyromagnetic factor $g=1$ we show that $\TEH(g=1)=\THU$, where $\THU$ is the Unruh temperature experienced by an accelerated observer. We conjecture that both particle production and nonlinear field effects inherent in the Unruh accelerated observer case are described by the case $g=1$ QED of strong fields. We present rates of particle production for $g=0,1,2$ and show that the case $g=1$ is experimentally distinguishable from $g=0,2$. Therefore, either accelerated observers are distinguishable from accelerated vacuum or there is unexpected modification of the theoretical framework.

description: The comparison of different treatment groups in terms of time to a specific event is paramount in clinical practice. Statistical methods to address such research questions are of fundamental importance. Hence, various tests and effect measures have been proposed to quantify such differences. One fundamental approach combines reporting the hazard ratio as an effect measure and the log-rank test to quantify the derivation. The main reason is that the log-rank test is optimal under proportional hazards. It is the most powerful test to detect differences between treatment arms in such scenarios. However, if we consider other kinds of hazard patterns, the power of the LR potentially drops drastically. At the same time, under non-proportional hazards, the hazard ratio changes over time and does not remain constant, making it challenging to interpret as an overarching measure of effect. Consequently, we need alternative approaches and recommendations on using them in settings where we can not assume proportional hazards. This cumulative thesis is based on five publications dealing with non-proportional hazards. The first work summarizes the current state of two-group comparisons for time-to-event data under non-proportional hazards and compares the methods based on reconstructed real data. The second paper extends the comparison by including additional methods and reevaluating the approaches employing simulation studies. In the third manuscript, we revisit the average hazard ratio and the corresponding test statistic to derive a parametric and simulation-based sample size approach. The fourth manuscript extends the multi-directional weighted log-rank test to multiple testing problems, resulting in a new approach allowing for more than two treatment groups. Finally, the fifth publication incorporates the multi-directional log-rank test into an adaptive design, resulting in a highly flexible approach for situations with little prior knowledge.

Quantum Dynamics and Spectroscopy of Excitons in Molecular Aggregates

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Chemical Physics (physics.chem-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The theoretical description and the properties of Frenkel excitons in non-covalently bonded molecular aggregates are reviewed from a multi-exciton perspective of dissipative quantum dynamics. First, the photophysical and quantum chemical characterization of the monomeric dye building blocks is discussed, including the important aspect of electron-vibrational coupling within the Huang-Rhys model. Supplementing the model by the Coulombic interactions between monomers, the description of aggregates in terms of excitonic or vibrational-excitonic bands follows. Besides of giving rise to complex absorption and emission line shapes, exciton-vibrational interaction is responsible for energy and phase relaxation and thereby limits the size of coherent excitations in larger aggregates. Throughout, emphasis is put on the electronic three-level model as a minimum requirement to describe nonlinear spectroscopies including effects of two-exciton states such as excited state absorption and exciton-exciton annihilation. The experimentally observed characteristics of stationary absorption and fluorescence spectra of aggregates as well as their temperature dependence are discussed. Examples for ultrafast spectroscopic experiments including pump-probe studies, photon echo and two-dimensional spectroscopy are presented and results on the size of coherence domains and on intra- and interband relaxation are given. Finally, experimental signatures for exciton-exciton annihilation and their analysis with respect to the mobility of excitons are described.

Community-driven injury prevention in youth female soccer
Creators: name: Frew, Kira
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: Introduction: Youth female soccer players are at high risk of lower-extremity (LE) injury. Randomized controlled trials (RCTs) have previously demonstrated the efficacy of team-based neuromuscular training in decreasing injury rates in youth female soccer players. In an RCT, the neuromuscular training program used in this study was efficacious in reducing the risk of all injuries by 38% and acute-onset injuries by 43% in youth soccer players. The aim of this thesis was to determine the effectiveness of such an injury prevention program when community initiated, taught and delivered. Research design: Historical cohort study Participants: In 2008, 23 teams participated in the collection of quality assurance data (n=351). In 2010, 15 teams completed the study (n=187). Players in both cohorts were ages 9 to 17. Intervention: The program included a team-based neuromuscular training warm-up (including dynamic stretching, strength, agility, plyometric and balance components) and an individual home-based wobble board training program. Main outcome measures: Soccer injury resulting in time loss of one week or more. A soccer injury was defined as any injury occurring during soccer activity resulting in medical attention and/or the removal of the player from the current session and/or subsequent time loss of at least one soccer session as a direct result of that injury. Results: In study 1, the Risk Ratios (RR) comparing the intervention season to the control season were: all injury (RR, 0.73; 95% CI, 0.37-1.45), acute-onset injury (RR, 0.69; 95% CI, 0.33-1.44) and LE injury (RR, 0.74; 95% CI, 0.34-1.64). In study 2, there was evidence that player position and right knee flexion-to-extension ratio were significant risk factors for injury in youth female soccer players participating in an injury prevention program. Conclusions: RR point estimates suggest that a community-driven team-based neuromuscular training program may be protective of all injury, acute-onset injury and LE injury in youth female soccer players. The magnitude of this effect is similar to that previously determined in RCT studies examining a similar neuromuscular training program. Future research should focus on the implementation context of delivery of such a program to evaluate adherence and maintenance in a youth soccer population.

description: This research is an attempt to redefine the concepts of ideology and resistance for an Iranian context and analyse their reflections in the Divan of Nāser-e Khosrow (Ca. 1004-1076). Ideology in Persian studies has usually been treated as a belief system promoted by a group of people with political ambitions, and resistance as a conscious political protest organised to confront a political system. Such general definitions, however, have failed to give rise to an applicable methodology for analysing the relationship between the text and dominant power, mainly because the mutual impacts of ideology and resistance have rarely been considered. Using the premises of the theory of ‘ideology critique’ and the method of ‘discourse analysis’, I define ideology as the totality of the undisputed and naturalised statements that justify a form of domination and hegemony. I also define resistance as discursive practices that disturb the symbolic order by challenging the common sense that has been established by the hegemonic discourse. To contextualise my study of ideology and resistance, I employ the concept of the political to analyse the construction of orthodoxy and political identity during the eleventh century Iran. I then examine the literary and theological themes of Nāser-e Khosrow’s Divan. I argue that though Nāser-e Khosrow stood against the Baghdad Caliphs and their Turkic allies in Khorasan and dedicated his life to promoting Ismailism as a new conception of truth, his poetry merged the emancipative aspects of Ismaili discourse with the deterministic statements of Persian literary tradition in ways that he ultimately failed to break away from the dominant epistemes of the time and reproduced the arbitrary and tyrannical structure of power.

description: We present several families of total boolean functions which have exact quantum query complexity which is a constant multiple (between 1/2 and 2/3) of their classical query complexity, and show that optimal quantum algorithms for these functions cannot be obtained by simply computing parities of pairs of bits. We also characterise the model of nonadaptive exact quantum query complexity in terms of coding theory and completely characterise the query complexity of symmetric boolean functions in this context. These results were originally inspired by numerically solving the semidefinite programs characterising quantum query complexity for small problem sizes. We include numerical results giving the optimal success probabilities achievable by quantum algorithms computing all boolean functions on up to 4 bits, and all symmetric boolean functions on up to 6 bits.

description: We discuss a supersymmetric version of DBI (Dirac-Born-Infeld) inflation, which is a typical inflation model in string cosmology. The supersymmetric DBI action together with a superpotential always leads to correction terms associated with the potential into the kinetic term, which drastically change the dynamics of DBI inflation. We find two significant features of supersymmetric DBI inflation. The first one is that ultra-relativistic motion is prohibited to cause inflation, which leads to order of unity sound velocity squared and hence small non-Gaussianities of primordial curvature perturbations. The second one is that the relation between the tensor-to-scalar ratio and the field variation is modified. Then, significant tensor-to-scalar ratio $r \gtrsim 0.01$ is possible even for sub-Planck variation of the field. These new features are in sharp contrast with those of the standard non-supersymmetric DBI inflation and hence have a lot of interest implications on upcoming observations of cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropies by the Planck satellite as well as direct detection experiments of gravitational waves like DECIGO and BBO.

A proposed proper EPRL vertex amplitude
Creators: name: Engle, Jonathan
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: As established in a prior work of the author, the linear simplicity constraints used in the construction of the so-called `new' spin-foam models mix three of the five sectors of Plebanski theory as well as two dynamical orientations, and this is the reason for multiple terms in the asymptotics of the EPRL vertex amplitude as calculated by Barrett et al. Specifically, the term equal to the usual exponential of $i$ times the Regge action corresponds to configurations either in sector (II+) with positive orientation or sector (II-) with negative orientation. The presence of the other terms beyond this cause problems in the semiclassical limit of the spin-foam model when considering multiple 4-simplices due to the fact that the different terms for different 4-simplices mix in the semi-classical limit, leading in general to a non-Regge action and hence non-Regge and non-gravitational configurations persisting in the semiclassical limit. To correct this problem, we propose to modify the vertex so its asymptotics include only the one term of the form $e^{iS_{\Regge}}$. To do this, an explicit classical discrete condition is derived that isolates the desired gravitational sector corresponding to this one term. This condition is quantized and used to modify the vertex amplitude, yielding what we call the `proper EPRL vertex amplitude.' This vertex still depends only on standard SU(2) spin-network data on the boundary, is SU(2) gauge-invariant, and is linear in the boundary state, as required. In addition, the asymptotics now consist in the single desired term of the form $e^{iS_{\Regge}}$, and all degenerate configurations are exponentially suppressed. A natural generalization to the Lorentzian signature is also presented.

Between worlds, among stories : a cosmopolitan approach to Iranian political culture
Creators: name: Khatami, Richie Nojang
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Literature on Iran’s political culture and future democratic potentials has flourished in the past decade. How does one interpret this growing field and, more widely, a nation’s distinct political identity? Any clear understanding of a distant culture like Iran’s is bound to be influenced by one’s subject position and familiarity with its past, its customs and the disclosure of its people’s self-understandings. Interpretations that seek to go beyond ethnocentricity and Orientalism, therefore, are dependent on the expressions of those who know and breathe the culture. The purpose of this paper is to put forward a method that all interpreters can use to approach Iran’s political culture in order to gain a thorough, shared understanding of it. I argue that an interpretive, hermeneutic methodology is the best approach for such a purpose, with emphasis on the importance of narratology, or an examination of the diverse narratives associated with Iran, its political culture, and its identity. A multifaceted understanding of various narratives—whether political or artistic—serves to sustain a comprehensive grasp of Iran’s political culture for all interpreters, entailing significant consequences for the persistent discussions of the nation’s political future and democratic prospects. A cosmopolitan viewpoint reveals an open-ended political situation in Iran, whose civil society continues to display a capacity for democratic participation.
