description: We observe the phonon-drag voltage oscillations correlating with the resistance oscillations under microwave irradiation in a two-dimensional electron gas in perpendicular magnetic field. This phenomenon is explained by the influence of dissipative resistivity modified by microwaves on the phonon-drag voltage perpendicular to the phonon flux. When the lowest-order resistance minima evolve into zero-resistance states, the phonon-drag voltage demonstrates sharp features suggesting that current domains associated with these states can exist in the absence of external dc driving.

description: We study the Cauchy problem for the KdV equation $\partial_t u - 6 u \partial_x u + \partial_x^3 u = 0$ with almost periodic initial data $u(x,0)=V(x)$. We consider initial data $V$, for which the associated Schrödinger operator is absolutely continuous and has a spectrum that is not too thin in a sense we specify, and show the existence, uniqueness, and almost periodicity in time of solutions. This establishes a conjecture of Percy Deift for this class of initial data. The result is shown to apply to all small analytic quasiperiodic initial data with Diophantine frequency vector.

description: This paper concerns the introduction of a new Markov Chain Monte Carlo scheme for posterior sampling in Bayesian nonparametric mixture models with priors that belong to the general Poisson-Kingman class. We present a novel compact way of representing the infinite dimensional component of the model such that while explicitly representing this infinite component it has less memory and storage requirements than previous MCMC schemes. We describe comparative simulation results demonstrating the efficacy of the proposed MCMC algorithm against existing marginal and conditional MCMC samplers.

description: The presence of non-axisymmetric perturbations in an axisymmetric magnetic field equilibrium renders the Guiding Center (GC) particle motion non-integrable and may result in particle, energy and momentum redistribution, due to resonance mechanisms. We analyse these perturbations in terms of their spectrum, as observed by the particles in the frame of unperturbed GC motion. We calculate semi-analytically the exact locations and strength of resonant spectral components of multiple perturbations. The presented Orbital Spectrum Analysis (OSA) method is based on an exact Action-Angle transform that fully takes into account Finite Orbit Width (FOW) effects. The method provides insight into the particle dynamics and enables the prediction of the effect of any perturbation to all different types of particles and orbits in a given, analytically or numerically calculated, axisymmetric equilibrium.

Methanide Complexes of s-Block and Rare Earth Metals

Publisher: name: University of Leicester
Year: 2023
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Chapters 2-3 focus on the proligand tris(2-pyridylthio)methane (HTptm, HC(S–C5H4N)3) and novel complexes obtained from reactivity with alkaline earth (Ae) reagents: 1) Grignard reagents (2.1-X, X = Cl, Br, I); 2) dialkylmagnesium reagents (3.1 and 3.2); 3) Ae bis-amides (3.3-Ae, Ae = Mg-Ba). Tptm underwent a facile C–S bond activation process with the more reactive co-ligands (alkyl or amido), which was studied via DFT and NMR studies. These showed a non-linear decomposition involving the novel transfer of an alkyl group onto the methanide carbon. 3.3-Mg and 3.3-Ca were also tested as hydrophosphination catalysts for selected alkenes and alkynes, including the first example of mono-hydrophosphination of 4-ethynylpyridine, achieved with high conversions and excellent regio- and stereochemical control. Chapters 4-5 covers the pursuit of Ae and divalent lanthanide alkylidenes, starting from the iminophosphoranomethanide (RNPC-H, {CH(R)P(Ph)2=NSiMe3}–, R = SiMe3, SitBuMe2). Group 1 (Li–K) salts and relative crown ether adducts of [A(TMSNPC-H)]2 (4.3-A, A = Li–K) were prepared and fully characterized. The use of 12-crown-4 and 15- crown-5 with 4.3-Li and 4.3-Na respectively yielded the rare ‘ate’ complexes [A(crown)2]+[A(TMSNPC-H)2]–. 4.3-K was also used to prepare [M(TMSNPC-H)2(THF)x] (5.1-M, M = Mg-Ba, Eu, Yb) and [RE(TMSNPC-H)3] (5.2-M; RE = Y, La, Pr, Sm). NMR analysis revealed underlying changes in the M–C bond character and intraligand bonding, corroborated by XRD and DFT. The 171Yb{1H} NMR of 5.1-Yb was recorded (δ = 1109 ppm), representing the first ytterbium NMR of a compound of this type. Chapter 6 focuses on a DFT study of NPC ligand system and target alkylidenes, [M(TMSNPC)(TMSNPC-H)]– (6.2-M, M = Mg-Ba, Eu, Yb) and [M(TMSNPC)2]2– (6.3-M, M = Mg-Ba, Eu, Yb). This study shows that the proposed species feature σ-bonds possessing some degree of covalency (M = Mg–Ba, Eu), and completely ionic π- interactions with the exception of 6.2-Yb and 6.3-Yb.

description: Moral injury refers to persistent shame and guilt experienced as a result of witnessing, failing to prevent, or bearing witness to extreme moral transgressions. The purpose of the current study is to explore whether a brief values affirmation may decrease patterns of moral injury associated with everyday moral transgressions. Values affirmations, which involve evaluating the self through one's own personal values, have been found to serve as a buffer and a coping resource when the self is threatened. Thus, it is expected that individuals who engage in a values-affirmation intervention will experience less shame and guilt associated with the recall of a moral transgression, in comparison to a control condition, and this effect will be mediated by participant’s perceptions of moral injury.

description: In this work, we developed a machine learning model to predict depressive symptomatology (DS). The model achieved an AUC of 0.71 and a sensitivity of 74.8%. When developing the model, we applied a Bayesian network approach to select its predictors. This probabilistic approach facilitates the understanding of the relationships between predictors and DS. In consequence, we were able to identify that having balance problems and experiencing shortness of breath are directly related to DS.

Assessing the Minimum Entropy Production Rate Principle for Multiphase Flow Using the Thermodynamically Constrained Averaging Theory Approach
Creators: name: Bronson, Sydney
Publisher: name: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill Graduate School
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Environmental sciences

subject: FOS: Environmental engineering

description: The thermodynamically constrained averaging theory (TCAT) approach was used to derive a general model for multiphase flow in porous media. Additionally, an entropy inequality was derived which provides an expression for the entropy production rate of the system. Non-equilibrium thermodynamic theory aims to characterize systems away from equilibrium where irreversible processes produce entropy, while classical thermodynamics characterizes equilibrium states. The maximum entropy principle of classical thermodynamics allows equilibrium states to be described using entropy, and the minimum entropy production rate principle (MEPRP) attempts to serve the same role for non-equilibrium systems at steady-state. The MEPRP is highly debated and has not been investigated for hydrologic systems, so to serve this purpose, simplifying assumptions were applied to the multiphase flow model to arrive at a standard model for unsaturated flow: Richards' equation. Then, using two common pressure-saturation-permeability models, Richards' equation was numerically simulated and found to satisfy the MEPRP under infiltration conditions.

description: Objective: The objective of this scoping review is to identify, describe, and consolidate indicators that have been developed to evaluate the social and emotional well-being (SEWB) of Indigenous children in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United States. This review will also explore the application of identified indicators to early childhood (children aged 0-6) as well as the engagement of Indigenous peoples in the process of developing identified indicators. Introduction: Indigenous children experience health inequalities that are shaped by the historical and enduring experiences of colonisation. SEWB is a construct that considers the impacts of colonialism and other structural determinants on Indigenous children’s health, as well as sources of strength, resilience, and healing to overcome health inequalities. There is growing consensus that Indigenous communities must meaningfully engage in the creation of culturally responsive indicators to measure Indigenous children’s health and well-being. Eligibility criteria: Using the Population-Concept-Context (PCC) framework, this review will focus on indicators of SEWB (Concept) among Indigenous children (Population) in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United States (Context). Methods: This proposed scoping review will be conducted in accordance with the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodology for scoping reviews. This scoping review will consider peer-reviewed publications and grey literature sources that meet the eligibility criteria. Evidence sources published in the English language between 2004 and 2021 will be included. Results will be presented in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-analyses extension for Scoping Reviews (PRISMA-ScR) checklist and using tables, figures, and narrative text.
The Silicon Vertex Tracker for the Heavy Photon Search Experiment

description: The Heavy Photon Search (HPS) is a new, dedicated experiment at Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility (JLab) to search for a massive vector boson, the heavy photon (a.k.a. dark photon, \Aprimebold{}), in the mass range 20-500~MeV/c$^{2}$ and with a weak coupling to ordinary matter. An \Aprimebold{} can be radiated from an incoming electron as it interacts with a charged nucleus in the target, accessing a large open parameter space where the \Aprimebold{} is relatively long-lived, leading to displaced vertices. HPS searches for these displaced \Aprimebold{} to e$^+$e$^-$ decays using actively cooled silicon microstrip sensors with fast readout electronics placed immediately downstream of the target and inside a dipole magnet to instrument a large acceptance with a relatively small detector. With typical particle momenta of 0.5-2~GeV/c, the low material budget of 0.7\% $\mathbf{X_0}$ per tracking layer is key to limiting the dominant multiple scattering uncertainty and allowing efficient separation of the decay vertex from the prompt QED trident background processes. Achieving the desired low-mass acceptance requires placing the edge of the silicon only 0.5~mm from the electron beam. This results in localized hit rates above 4~MHz/mm$^2$ and radiation levels above $\mathbf{10^{14}}$ 1~MeV neutron equivalent /cm$^2$ dose. Hit timing at the ns level is crucial to reject out-of time hits not associated with the \Aprimebold{} decay products from the almost continuous CEBAF accelerator beam. To avoid excessive beam-gas interactions the tracking detector is placed inside the accelerator beam vacuum envelope and is retractable to allow safe operation in case of beam motion. This contribution will discuss the design, construction and first performance results from the first data-taking period in the spring of 2015.

description: Cognitive-behavioural models of obsessive–compulsive disorder (OCD) propose that a tendency to negatively interpret ambiguous thoughts and situations plays a key role in maintaining the disorder. Moreover, some researchers have proposed that negative interpretive biases may share a common processing mechanism with attentional biases, with changes in one predicted to lead to changes in the other. The current study examined whether training positive (i.e., adaptive) interpretive bias of contamination-related OCD concerns using a cognitive bias modification paradigm (CBM-I) would lead to reductions in contamination concerns, as well as changes in contamination-related attentional bias. Undergraduate students with high levels of contamination-related OCD symptoms were randomly assigned to receive either positive (n = 31) or neutral (n = 33) CBM-I training. Participants in the positive training condition, relative to the neutral training condition, showed a significantly greater increase in positive interpretive bias, significantly less within-session behavioural avoidance of contaminants, and significantly reduced contamination-related cognitions (at one-week follow-up). Contrary to expectations, CBM-I training did not differentially impact attentional bias nor self-reported contamination-related OCD symptoms. We discuss future directions in applying CBM-I to contamination-related OCD.

description: Exploration of spin-currents in organic semiconductors (OSECs) induced by resonant microwave absorption in ferromagnetic substrates has been of great interest for potential spintronics applications. Due to the inherently weak spin-orbit coupling (SOC) of OSECs, their inverse spin Hall effect (ISHE) response is very subtle; limited by the microwave power applicable under continuous-wave (cw) excitation. Here we introduce a novel approach for generating significant ISHE signals using pulsed ferromagnetic resonance, where the ISHE is ~2-3 orders of magnitude larger compared to cw excitation. This strong ISHE enables us to investigate a variety of OSECs ranging from pi-conjugated polymers with strong SOC that contain intrachain platinum atoms, to weak SOC polymers, to C60 films, where the SOC is predominantly caused by the molecule surface curvature. The pulsed-ISHE technique offers a robust route for efficient injection and detection schemes of spin-currents at room temperature, and paves the way for spin-orbitronics in plastic materials.

description: Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) has been shown to be associated with pro-inflammatory markers, including elevated plasma levels of interleukin-1β (IL-1β). However, the precise role of neuroinflammation and central immune signaling on the development of this debilitating psychological disorder is not known. Here, we employed stress-enhanced fear learning, an animal model of the disorder, to examine the role of central IL-1β in PTSD. The results show that the severe stressor in SEFL induces a time-dependent increase in IL-1β immunoreactivity and mRNA expression within the dentate gyrus of the dorsal hippocampus. There was no increase in IL-1β in the basolateral amygdala or the perirhinal cortex. Moreover, blocking the action of IL-1β following the severe stressor with IL-1 receptor antagonist (10 μg, i.c.v., 24 and 48 hours after the stressor) prevented the development of SEFL. To provide further support for the role of IL-1β in the development of SEFL, we show that systemic morphine, a treatment which is known to reduce both PTSD and SEFL, also reduces IL-1β expression in the dorsal hippocampus induced by the severe stressor. These studies provide the first evidence that IL-1 is involved SEFL, and suggest that IL-1 signaling in the brain may play a critical role in the development of PTSD.

description: The bridge between quantum vacuum photon modes and properties of patterned surfaces is currently being established on solid theoretical grounds. Based on these foundations, the manipulation of quantum vacuum photon modes in a nanostructured cavity is theoretically shown to be able to turn the Lifshitz-van der Waals forces from attractive to repulsive regime. Since this concept relies on surface nanopatterning instead of chemical composition changes, it drastically relaxes the usual conditions for achieving repulsive Lifshitz-van der Waals forces. As a case study, the potential interaction energy between a nanopatterned polyethylene slab and a flat polyethylene slab with water as intervening medium is calculated. Extremely small corrugations heights (less than ten nanometers) are shown to be able to turn the Lifshitz-van der Waals force from attractive to repulsive, the interaction strength being controlled by the corrugation height. This new approach could lead to various applications in surface science.

USING THE COMPASS-EZ AND DUAL DIAGNOSIS CAPABILITY IN ADDICTION TREATMENT (DDCAT) INDEX TO IMPROVE OUTCOMES: RECOVERING, RENEWING, AND RESTORING LIVES
Creators: name: Raphemot, Cenean
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2017

description: Background: More than two decades of research mounts clear demonstration that providing an integrated, concurrent delivery of mental health and substance abuse treatment to persons with co-occurring substance use and psychiatric illness (also known as ‘dual diagnosis’ [DD]) renders best outcomes; yet, most persons suffering from these disorders do not receive such integrated interventions and most community-based behavioral health agencies are not prepared to provide it. Aims: To investigate the dual use of COMPASS-EZ and DDCAT instruments to (1) evaluate the current dual diagnosis capability of a community-based behavioral health agency; and (2) to develop and implement evidence-based recommendations to increase the agency’s dual diagnosis capabilities. Methods: A quality improvement (QI) initiative utilizing dual instruments to assess 22 programmatic domains of care and address the co-occurring capabilities of a single addiction treatment center for pregnant and postpartum women. Results: With all conditions met, focused quality improvements developed in policy for clinical documentation (recordkeeping), discharge planning, and staff competency assessment yield a prospective increase in DD-capability scores for the following COMPASS-EZ domains and agency overall: Program Policies [4.33 to 5.00], Screening and Identification [4.00 to 4.33], Integrated Discharge/Transition Planning [4.00 to 5.00], Program Collaboration and Partnership [4.20 to 5.00], and General Staff Competencies and Training [3.50 to 4.67]; total agency DD-capability score returned a prospective increase of 4.50 to 4.77. Conclusions: Findings suggest that across domains of care, community behavioral health agencies can continue to increase critical capabilities for patients with dual diagnosis through policy development. The collective application of one or more independent instruments proves useful to guide and measure the efficacy of quality improvement efforts.

description: In giant datasets, with a multitude of possible exposure-outcome associations to investigate, analytic flexibility is wide, together with the potential for unintended or intended selective analysis reporting. One way to counteract the effects of selective reporting is to run analyses across many scenarios (not only a small number of sensitivity analyses) and report the full range of effects. Patel et al. used an agnostic, exposure-wide approach to investigate associations between prescribed pharmaceuticals and any cancer, breast cancer, colon cancer, or prostate cancer, in the Swedish Prescribed Drug Registry (PDR), a nationwide registry of prescribed pharmaceuticals. The study investigated all drug categories in the registry as exposures, with adjustment for multiple comparisons. By comparing other investigations with this agnostic study, patterns of investigation and reporting can be examined. In this project, our aim is to evaluate how drug-cancer associations in the published literature using the Swedish PDR compare with an agnostic, exposure-wide study on the same registry. 1. Which drug-cancer associations, in which populations, have been investigated in published studies that use the PDR? How do the targeted associations map onto those investigated by the agnostic study? 2. Do published studies based on the PDR report associations with different magnitudes or different statistical significance levels than the agnostic study?

description: In this study we will examine the association between perceived discrimination – both subtle and overt - and psychological well-being (i.e., depression, substance use, and life satisfaction) in emerging adulthood. We will focus on the role of ethnic-racial identity (ERI) exploration and commitment dimensions, analyzing these variables as both mediators and moderators of the well-founded association between discrimination and well-being. In addition, we are interested in exploring whether different model specifications and outcome variables impact the results of our analyses.
The r-process in Magnetorotational Supernovae

description: One of the hottest open issues involving the evolution of r-process elements is fast enrichment in the early Universe. Clear evidence for the chemical enrichment of r-process elements is seen in the stellar abundances of extremely metal poor stars in the Galactic halo. However, small-mass galaxies are the ideal testbed for studying the evolutionary features of r-process enrichment given the potential rarity of production events yielding heavy r-process elements. Their occurrences become countable and thus an enrichment path due to each event can be found in the stellar abundances. We examine the chemical feature of Eu abundance at an early stage of ${\rm[Fe/H]} \lesssim -2$ in the Draco and Sculptor dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxies. Accordingly, we constrain the properties of the Eu production in the early dSphs. We find that the Draco dSph experienced a few Eu production events, whereas Eu enrichment took place more continuously in the Sculptor dSph due to its larger stellar mass. The event rate of Eu production is estimated to be about one per $100$-$200$ core-collapse supernovae, and a Eu mass of $\sim (1-2) \times 10^{-5}$\ms per single event is deduced by associating this frequency with the observed plateau value of ${\rm [Eu/H]} \sim -1.3$ for ${\rm [Fe/H]} \gtrsim -2$. The observed plateau implies that early Eu enrichment ceases at ${\rm [Fe/H]} \approx -2$. Such a selective operation only in low-metallicity stars supports magnetorotational supernovae, which require very fast rotation, as the site of early Eu production. We show that the Eu yields deduced from chemical evolution agree well with the nucleosynthesis results from corresponding supernovae models.

On the frequency dependency of fatigue damage caused by viscous fluid-structure interaction in hydraulic components

description: Experimental fatigue tests have been conducted for decades to study the lifetime of hydraulic components. Nevertheless, predicting the lifetime of hydraulic components remains difficult. For a quick market entry, test periods have to be short, and tests are often done under constant cyclic loading at high frequencies. The damage accumulation of hydraulic components, however, depends on the temporal load profiles, as viscous fluids introduce a time dependency. As a result, high pulsation frequencies alter the damage accumulation, which can result in misleading and inapplicable lifetime results. Previous studies have shown a significant difference in crack growth and lifetime when specimens have been submerged in pressurized oil. Despite the similarities between these experiments and hydraulic systems, the frequency dependency of fatigue damage in hydraulic components and the corresponding fluid-structure interaction in fatigue cracks have not yet been quantified. A one-dimensional numeric flow model in connection with a finite-element structural analysis was used to simulate the fluid flow and the crack opening. Based on the resulting stress amplitudes, the expected crack growth was predicted and compared to experimental data. The experiments show that the temporal load profile is critical to ensure equivalent damage accumulation in fatigue experiments. Otherwise, premature component failures can occur, and a large safety margin has to be applied.

An Analysis of the Division III Football Playoff Structure and Its Use of the Geographic Proximity Rule
Creators: name: Boyce, Jeremy Dewayne
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2007

description: The Division III Football Championship Committee uses a geographic proximity rule when seeding the playoff bracket. Cost prevention and missed class time have been cited as reasons for the rule’s implementation. Two sets of paired-samples t-tests compared the travel costs and travel distances of the first round 2002–2006 playoff competitions to re-seeded brackets not implementing the rule. Tests of travel cost were not statistically significant at the .05 level of significance. Tests of travel distance were not statistically significant at the.05 level of significance. The mean point differentials of each contest during the first three rounds of the playoffs from 2002 – 2006 were calculated. Comparisons made between the average margin of victory for the playoffs as a whole, unaffected brackets, and affected brackets found the average margin of victory steadily decreased each round for the affected brackets and decreased then increased for the unaffected and overall brackets.

description: Positioned in a specific curriculum context, yet universal in its rationale, this paper illustrates how over the course of one term, student teachers experiment with designing and teaching language learning activities that foster plurilingual competence of young learners of English, while following the 'Framework of Reference for Pluralistic Approaches to Languages and Cultures'. It presents two practical teaching examples (one for primary and one for secondary school level) not only to showcase the great learning and motivational potential of pluralistic tasks employed in L3 English classrooms but also to bear testimony to the creativity and plentiful resources today’s pre-service language teachers themselves bring into their multilingual classrooms if encouraged and opened up to such a practice. Based on the FREPA descriptors, the paper evaluates the developed teaching material to discuss implications for pre- and in-service training of teachers working with young learners of diverse linguistic and cultural backgrounds.

description: Secure random numbers are a fundamental element of many applications in science, statistics, cryptography and more in general in security protocols. We present a method that enables the generation of high-speed unpredictable random numbers from the quadratures of an electromag- netic field without any assumption on the input state. The method allows to eliminate the numbers that can be predict due the presence of classical and quantum side information. In particular, we introduce a procedure to estimate a bound on the conditional min-entropy based on the Entropic Uncertainty Principle for position and momentum observables of infinite dimensional quantum sys- tems. By the above method, we experimentally demonstrated the generation of secure true random bits at a rate greater than 1 Gbit/s.
