Introverse Arrangements: Rediscovering the Typewritings of Ruth Wolf-Rehfeldt
Creators: name: Champion, Savannah M.
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2022

description: This thesis aims to understand Wolf-Rehfeldt’s place in the unofficial art world of the GDR by examining her work in light of her status as a clerical worker with social rather than professional ties to the art world. She stands out within the East German Mail Art context, not just for her inventive use of a typewriter to create abstract figurations, but for the way she used it to interject considerations of gender and power into a network of artists overwhelmingly dominated by men with her open-ended Typewritings.”
Through historical research and close readings of her work, this study uncovers how Wolf-Rehfeldt's Typewritings indicate that Mail Art was a space to share stylistic experiments, and her sophisticated treatment of feminist and abstract themes. My research reveals that the record of who was involved in the GDR’s experimental art scene is incomplete, with still more to be found. A deeper look at Wolf-Rehfeldt’s background confirmed that she was more enmeshed in Mail Art than the historical record indicates, suggesting the need for further study on the influence and involvement of women in the movement.

Emotional experiences: teacher interactions with parents in New South Wales primary schools

Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2023
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: Teachers’ work has been affected by the increased engagement of parents in school settings. Parental engagement in school settings is encouraged as an important factor in student learning, however there is limited research on the effect of parental engagement on the emotional experiences of teachers, particularly within middle and high socioeconomic areas. A greater understanding of teachers’ emotional experiences in their interactions with parents, and how these emotional responses are constructed within contextualised school settings is needed. This thesis explored the emotions that teachers experienced in their day-to-day interactions with parents. This research adopted feminist and poststructuralist scholarship and an interactionist approach to the study of classroom teachers’ emotion through examining the convergence between the intrapersonal, the interpersonal and the socio-political culture. Four classroom teachers from four Sydney public primary school settings participated in this multi-case study. The data sources included classroom teachers' completion of an ‘emotional diary’ and in-depth interviews over a 6-month period. In addition, sources were collected from each of the four school settings including school newsletters, school websites, and policy documents. Using small story analysis and documentary sources analysis, findings revealed that teachers’ emotional experiences are shaped by the social and cultural construction of 'emotional rules' within each school setting. When parents did not comply with these emotional rules, teachers tended to experience ‘negative’ emotions. Teachers consistently reported experiencing ‘negative’ emotions with very few ‘positive’ emotional experiences in the 6 month period. Emotions were managed by engaging in significant emotional labour by seeking supportive collegial relationships and through recalling past interactions with the parent to assist in navigating current emotional experiences. These findings are discussed in relation to the private, relational and political synchronous nature of emotion in school contexts. The findings suggest that school policy and procedures contribute to contexts for interactions with parents that significantly increase teachers’ experiences of negative emotions. Greater recognition of the emotional work of teachers is required in teacher professional development and in educational policy development in relation to parent interactions within school contexts.

description: The recently discovered $η_1(1855)$ and the previously observed $π_1(1600)$ state present a valuable opportunity for the investigation of the $J^{P(C)}=1^{-(+)}$ light hybrid nonet. In this study, we employ a semirelativistic quark potential model to examine the masses of the $J^{P(C)}=1^{-(+)}$ light hybrid states. The static potential, which portrays the confinement force between the quark-antiquark pair in a hybrid system, is borrowed from the SU$(3)$ lattice gauge theory. Additionally, we utilize a constituent gluon model to analyze the strong decay characteristics of these light $1^{-+}$ hybrids. Our findings suggest that the $π_1(1600)$ and $η_1(1855)$ states could be potential candidates for $1^{-+}$ $(u\bar{u}-d\bar{d})g/\sqrt{2}$ and $s\bar{s}g$ hybrids, respectively. To ensure comprehensiveness, we also investigate the isospin partners of the $π_1(1600)$ and $η_1(1855)$ states within the $1^{-(+)}$ nonet$-$specifically, the $(u\bar{u}+d\bar{d})g/\sqrt{2}$ and $s\bar{q}g$ ($q=u$ and $d$ quarks) states. We propose some potential decay channels which could be explored in experimental settings to detect these undiscovered states.

THE MOUSE MAMMARY GLAND: A TOOL TO EVALUATE THE ENVIRONMENTAL CHEMICAL BUTYL BENZYL PHTHALATE, AND APPROACHES TO IMPROVE REGULATORY TESTING
Creators: name: Daum, Jessica
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2022

description: In the first part of this thesis, we utilize the mouse model to evaluate the environmental chemical Butyl Benzyl Phthalate. Due to lack of research on female exposure to BBP, this thesis focuses on quantifying the effects of gestational exposure on the female mammary gland Here male and female parental mice were exposed before mating and through pregnancy and lactation to one of three doses of BBP or the control via oral ingestion. After weaning, offspring were sacrificed at puberty or early adulthood and evaluated for altered mammary gland morphology or hormonal receptor expression. Results indicate a persistent statistically significant increase in weight among the highest BBP dose group. Additionally, the high-dose adult treatment group demonstrated a statistically significant decrease in terminal ends. Finally, the mid-dose adult group demonstrated significantly higher expression of the progesterone receptor compared to the low and high-dose BBP groups. There were no significant findings in pubertal female outcomes.
In the second part of this thesis, we evaluate the existing OECD Extended One-Generation Reproductive Toxicity Guidelines (TG 443). First by summarizing the endpoints and outcomes evaluated in studies that implement these guidelines, and additionally discussing the current OECD recommendations for mammary gland evaluation. We conclude with outlining the remaining questions to be evaluated and further research necessary to establish that the mammary gland should be added to TG 443.

description: The case for heat decarbonisation is widely acknowledged, with studies showing that it is more cost effective to tackle CO2 emissions from buildings than cutting more deeply in other sectors.The real challenge is establishing new heating solutions that substantially remove natural gas use from homes whilst making the solutions financially viable and attractive to consumers. Around 20,000 homes each week will need new heating system installations between 2025 and 2050 to meet decarbonisation targets; a rate fifty times greater than achieved to date.The current market will not deliver at scale for residential low carbon heat transition given: unappealing consumer propositions, a fragmented industry structure, a lack economic drivers and need for holistic policy framework.The Energy Technology Institute commissioned theEnergy Systems Catapult to deliver a business model development project to develop a number of specific business propositions that could stimulate new thinking for models to be introduced into the market from just before 2020 through to the late 2020’s.

Five complementary business models are considered in order to stimulate new thinking on addressing affordability and engagement in residential low carbon heating for all homes and consumers, including the fuel poor:Home Service CompanyHome Comfort ContractHome ModerniserNeighbourhood Heat and ElectricityUrban RenewalAnalysis suggests that the most significant Enablers would be Policy, ICT and Standardisation. It is notable that none of the business models depends on new clean technology per se and that financing typical for other sectors could be sufficient to move the market forward. Trading of energy was deemed to have aminor impact in the value or cost of the home heating provision.

description: Creating the photo-realistic version of people sketched portraits is useful to various entertainment purposes. Existing studies only generate portraits in the 2D plane with fixed views, making the results less vivid. In this paper, we present Stereoscopic Simplified Sketch-to-Portrait (SSSP), which explores the possibility of creating Stereoscopic 3D-aware portraits from simple contour sketches by involving 3D generative models. Our key insight is to design sketch-aware constraints that can fully exploit the prior knowledge of a tri-plane-based 3D-aware generative model. Specifically, our designed region-aware volume rendering strategy and global consistency constraint further enhance detail correspondences during sketch encoding. Moreover, in order to facilitate the usage of layman users, we propose a Contour-to-Sketch module with vector quantized representations, so that easily drawn contours can directly guide the generation of 3D portraits. Extensive comparisons show that our method generates high-quality results that match the sketch. Our usability study verifies that our system is greatly preferred by user.

description: It is becoming clear that 5G wireless systems will encompass frequencies from around 500 MHz all the way to around 100 GHz. To adequately assess the performance of 5G systems in these different bands, path loss (PL) models will need to be developed across this wide frequency range. The PL models can roughly be broken into two categories, ones that have some anchor in physics, and ones that curve-match only over the data set without any physical anchor. In this paper we use both real-world measurements from 2 to 28 GHz and ray-tracing studies from 2 to 73.5 GHz, both in an urban-macro environment, to assess the prediction performance of the two PL modeling techniques. In other words, we look at how the two different PL modeling techniques perform when the PL model is applied to a prediction set which is different in distance, frequency, or environment from a measurement set where the parameters of the respective models are determined. We show that a PL model with a physical anchor point can be a better predictor of PL performance in the prediction sets while also providing a parameterization which is more stable over a substantial number of different measurement sets.

description: This paper presents a method for detecting mispronunciations with the aim of improving Computer Assisted Language Learning (CALL) tools used by foreign language learners. The algorithm is based on Principle Component Analysis (PCA). It is hierarchical with each successive step refining the estimate to classify the test word as being either mispronounced or correct. Preprocessing before detection, like normalization and time-scale modification, is implemented to guarantee uniformity of the feature vectors input to the detection system. The performance using various features including spectrograms and Mel-Frequency Cepstral Coefficients (MFCCs) are compared and evaluated. Best results were obtained using MFCCs, achieving up to 99% accuracy in word verification and 93% in native/non-native classification. Compared with Hidden Markov Models (HMMs) which are used pervasively in recognition application, this particular approach is computational efficient and effective when training data is limited.

Changes in Gene Expression From Long-Term Warming Revealed Using Metatranscriptome Mapping to FAC-Sorted Bacteria
Creators: name: Colvin, Christopher A
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2022

description: Soil microbiomes play pivotal roles to the health of the environment by maintaining metabolic cycles. One question is how will climate change affect soil bacteria over time and what could the repercussions be. To answer these questions, the Harvard Forest Long-Term Warming Experiment was established to mimic predicted climate change by warming plots of land 5℃ above ambient conditions. In 2017, 14 soil core samples were collected from Barre Woods warming experiment to mark 15 years since the establishment of the soil warming in that location. These samples underwent traditional metatranscriptomics to generate an mRNA library as well as a process coined cell-sorted or mini-metagenomics involving the sorting of single bacterial cells from the environment using FACS. This was followed by pooling into groups of 100 cells for more cost efficient genome recovery. 200 high-quality genomes were compiled, 12 of which were taxonomically identified as Acidobacteria. Acidobacteria are an extremely abundant and diverse phylum of bacteria that were found to be very well represented in the soil samples. Due to their abundance in many different soil environments as well as their known importance in many metabolic cycles, they were chosen as the candidate phylum to further investigate. Using a reference-based read mapping approach with the 12 Acidobacteria genomes and metatranscriptomic data, we identified over 3,000 differentially expressed genes within these organisms as a result of soil warming. Due to the diversity within the phylum itself, many of the genomes indicated different patterns of expression making it difficult to identify phylum-wide differential expression trends. However, the sigma70 factor, an important housekeeping gene used as a transcription regulator, was found to be up-regulated in a majority of the genomes. Over 30 different glycoside hydrolase encoding genes and glycosyltransferases were also found to be differentially expressed across the Acidobacteria reference genomes as well as 23 chemotaxis-related genes. Despite identifying four different groups of genes that showed statistically significant differences in expression levels, there may be more changes occurring in these soil bacteria and the soil microbiome as a whole due to climate change than previously measured by read-based analyses of metatranscriptomic data.

description: We describe the construction of $2+1$-dimensional toplogically massive adS gravity with ${\mathcal{N}}$-extended supersymmetry in superspace by means of introducing a compensating hypermultiplet for the super-Weyl invariance. For $\mathcal{N}\geq 3$ the scalar multiplet must be on shell and the potential for the scalar compensator is completely determined by the geometry. As a consequence the resulting massive theory has no free parameter for $\mathcal{N}\geq 4$. For $\mathcal{N}= 4$ we show that this leads to topologically massive gravity at the chiral point and construct the corresponding off-shell component action.

description: In our first paper [2] we explained why the Zak-OTFS input-output (I/O) relation is predictable and non-fading when the delay and Doppler periods are greater than the effective channel delay and Doppler spreads, a condition which we refer to as the crystallization condition. We argued that a communication system should operate within the crystalline regime. It is well known that it is possible to identify a linear time varying (LTV) channel if and only if it is under-spread. The crystallization condition is more restrictive than the under-spread condition, so identification is always possible. In the crystalline regime, we show that Zak-OTFS pilot sequences minimize the complexity of identifying the effective DD domain channel filter. We demonstrate that the filter taps can simply be read off from the response to a single Zak-OTFS pilot. In general, we provide an explicit formula for reconstructing the Zak-OTFS I/O relation from a finite number of received pilot symbols in the delay-Doppler (DD) domain. This reconstruction formula makes it possible to study predictability of the Zak-OTFS I/O relation for a sampled system that operates under finite duration and bandwidth constraints. We analyze reconstruction accuracy for different choices of the delay and Doppler periods, and of the pulse shaping filter. Reconstruction accuracy is high when the crystallization condition is satisfied, implying that it is possible to learn directly the I/O relation without needing to estimate the underlying channel. This opens up the possibility of a model-free mode of operation, which is especially useful when a traditional model-dependent mode of operation (reliant on estimation of the underlying physical channel) is out of reach (for example, when the channel comprises of unresolvable paths, or exhibits a continuous delay-Doppler profile such as in presence of acceleration).

description: In this work, we introduce a practical dataset named HUST bearing, that provides a large set of vibration data on different ball bearings. This dataset contains 90 raw vibration data of 6 types of defects (inner crack, outer crack, ball crack, and their 2-combinations) on 5 types of bearing at 3 working conditions with the sample rate of 51,200 samples per second. We established the envelope analysis and order tracking analysis on the introduced dataset to allow an initial evaluation of the data. A number of classical machine learning classification methods are used to identify bearing faults of the dataset using features in different domains. The typical advanced unsupervised transfer learning algorithms also perform to observe the transferability of knowledge among parts of the dataset. The experimental results of examined methods on the dataset gain divergent accuracy up to 100% on classification task and 60-80% on unsupervised transfer learning task.

description: Poly- and perfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are a class of bioaccumulative toxicants used in numerous industrial and commercial products. Perfluorooctanesulfonic acid (PFOS) alters pancreatic organogenesis during development, and perfluorohexanesulfonic acid (PFHxS) has been suggested as a replacement for PFOS due to its shorter carbon chain, but they are often found together in surfactants, such as legacy aqueous film-forming foam. This study investigates how developmental exposures to a PFAS mixture (PFHxS + PFOS) impact the developing exocrine pancreas. Zebrafish embryos (Tg(ptf1a:GFP)) were exposed to 0.01% DMSO, or 8, 16, 32 μM PFHxS alone, 16 μM PFOS alone, and 8, 16, and 32 μM PFHxS plus 16 μM PFOS. Embryos underwent refreshing exposures (3 hours post fertilization (hpf) - 96 hpf) or static exposures (3, 24, 48, or 72 hpf - 96 hpf) and then live imaging to quantify the truncated exocrine pancreas phenotype that occurred, and at what point in development it became apparent. PFAS mixtures significantly impacted growth parameters and exocrine pancreas length. The truncated pancreas phenotype was seen most often in the 16 μM PFHxS + 16 μM PFOS treatment group, so this concentration was used for subsequent experiments. Time lapse imaging (58 - 72 hpf, 80 - 96 hpf) and cellular proliferation assays (3 - 96 hpf) were used to ascertain the cause of the truncated phenotype as an issue of cellular migration or proliferation within the pancreas. Cell migration and proliferation were decreased in response to toxicant exposure. This study offers insights to how developmental exposures to toxicants may impact the pancreas.

description: It is well known that the Fock quantization of field theories in general spacetimes suffers from an infinite ambiguity, owing to the inequivalent possibilities in the selection of a representation of the canonical commutation or anticommutation relations, but also owing to the freedom in the choice of variables to describe the field among all those related by linear time-dependent transformations, including the dependence through functions of the background. In this work we remove this ambiguity (up to unitary equivalence) in the case of a massive Dirac free field propagating in a spacetime with homogeneous and isotropic spatial sections of spherical topology. Two physically reasonable conditions are imposed in order to arrive to this result: (a) The invariance of the vacuum under the spatial isometries of the background, and (b) the unitary implementability of the dynamical evolution that dictates the Dirac equation. We characterize the Fock quantizations with a non trivial fermion dynamics that satisfy these two conditions. Then, we provide a complete proof of the unitary equivalence of the representations in this class under very mild requirements on the time variation of the background, once a criterion to discern between particles and antiparticles has been set.

description: Daily emotional functioning is thought to be significantly impacted by uncertain situations, which are inherently ambiguous, uncontrollable, and thus distressing. Furthermore, uncertainty is thought to elicit anxiety, which has been found to motivate emotion regulation. Despite the prevalence of uncertain situations in daily life and the cogent links between uncertainty, anxiety, and emotion regulation, few studies have investigated the extent to which different types of anxiety (those experienced as an emotional state directly relating to uncertainty, or those experienced in general due to personality traits or psychopathology) motivate the use of emotion regulation to cope with uncertain events. Therefore, this project seeks to understand the relationship between anxiety and people’s efforts to manage their emotions about uncertain events (i.e., emotion regulation effort). We will test (1) whether feeling anxious about an uncertain event predicts emotion regulation effort, (2) whether anxiety symptoms predict emotion regulation effort, and (3) whether anxiety symptoms moderate the relationship between event-related anxiety and emotion regulation effort. These research questions will be investigated using data from a larger study. We pre-registered a data collection protocol for the larger study on 03/06/22, before data collection commenced (see https://osf.io/tq3gc). For ease of review, some of the information contained in this pre-registration has been copied from the larger study pre-registration, and any departures noted.

Integrable multi-Hamiltonian systems from reduction of an extended quasi-Poisson double of $\operatorname{U}(n)$

description: We construct a master dynamical system on a $\operatorname{U}(n)$ quasi-Poisson manifold, $\mathcal{M}_d$, built from the double $\operatorname{U}(n) \times \operatorname{U}(n)$ and $d\geq 2$ open balls in $\mathbb{C}^n$, whose quasi-Poisson structures are obtained from $T^* \mathbb{R}^n$ by exponentiation. A pencil of quasi-Poisson bivectors $P_{\underline{z}}$ is defined on $\mathcal{M}_d$ that depends on $d(d-1)/2$ arbitrary real parameters and gives rise to pairwise compatible Poisson brackets on the $\operatorname{U}(n)$-invariant functions. The master system on $\mathcal{M}_d$ is a quasi-Poisson analogue of the degenerate integrable system of free motion on the extended cotangent bundle $T^*\!\operatorname{U}(n) \times \mathbb{C}^{n\times d}$. Its commuting Hamiltonians are pullbacks of the class functions on one of the $\operatorname{U}(n)$ factors. We prove that the master system descends to a degenerate integrable system on a dense open subset of the smooth component of the quotient space $\mathcal{M}_d/\operatorname{U}(n)$ associated with the principal orbit type. Any reduced Hamiltonian arising from a class function generates the same flow via any of the compatible Poisson structures stemming from the bivectors $P_{\underline{z}}$. The restrictions of the reduced system on minimal symplectic leaves parameterized by generic elements of the center of $\operatorname{U}(n)$ provide a new real form of the complex, trigonometric spin Ruijsenaars-Schneider model of Krichever and Zabrodin. This generalizes the derivation of the compactified trigonometric RS model found previously in the $d=1$ case.

Understanding the factors that make public participation effective in health policy and planning: A realist synthesis
Creators: name: Ward, Paul
Publisher: name: Torrens University Australia

Subjects: Primary health care

description: Although researchers argue for the importance of involving the public in developing health policy, there has been little focus on central research questions - such as what techniques of public participation work, in what circumstances, and why. This paper presents a realist synthesis which identifies and explains the underlying mechanisms and specific contextual factors that lead to effective public participation in health policy and planning. Peer-reviewed, English language literature was searched, which resulted in 77 articles for review and synthesis. This synthesis uncovered the underlying mechanism of 'political commitment' that generates public participation effectiveness. The other three possible underlying mechanisms, namely: 'partnership synergy', 'inclusiveness' and 'deliberativeness', were found to potentially provide further explanation on public participation effectiveness for health policy and planning. The findings of this review provide evidence that can be useful to health practitioners and decision-makers to actively involve the public when drafting public health policies and programs and, more importantly, guide them in deciding which strategies to best employ for which contexts.Journal compilation
Quasi-normal modes of non-separable perturbation equations: the scalar non-Kerr case

description: Scalar, vector and tensor perturbations on the Kerr spacetime are governed by equations that can be solved by separation of variables, but the same is not true in generic stationary and axisymmetric geometries. This complicates the calculation of black-hole quasi-normal mode frequencies in theories that extend/modify general relativity, because one generally has to calculate the eigenvalue spectrum of a two-dimensional partial differential equation (in the radial and angular variables) instead of an ordinary differential equation (in the radial variable). In this work, we show that if the background geometry is close to the Kerr one, the problem considerably simplifies. One can indeed compute the quasi-normal mode frequencies, at least at leading order in the deviation from Kerr, by solving an ordinary differential equation subject to suitable boundary conditions. Although our method is general, in this paper we apply it to scalar perturbations on top of a Kerr black hole with an anomalous quadrupole moment, or on top of a slowly rotating Kerr background.

Disparities in Adverse Childhood Experiences, Coping, and Campus Climate as Predictors of Mental Health Among Young Adults

description: Adverse childhood experiences (ACEs) have been studied for the last two decades and are associated with a large number of mental health problems. However, existing research has yet to explore the underlying mechanisms that might affect the relationship between ACEs and mental health outcomes, particularly in terms of contextual influence. The present study examined the individual and conjoint effects of ACEs, coping, and campus climate on depressive and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms, exploring the moderating effects of coping and campus climate among a diverse sample of young adults. In addition to that, racial/ethnic identity and gender/sexual identity were tested as a potential moderator in the relationship among ACEs, coping strategies, campus climate and mental health outcomes, in which the relationship was hypothesized to be different depending on one’s identity. Data for this study were collected from 423 college students who completed a set of questionnaires. The survey assessed socio-demographic variables, ACEs, coping strategies, campus climate, depressive, and PTSD symptoms. By examining the effects of ACEs, campus climate, coping, and individual identity on mental health outcomes simultaneously, the study results suggest that coping and campus climate moderate the relationship between ACEs and PTSD, and it varies depending on individual identity. The findings highlight the importance of culturally sensitive and appropriate interventions and services for diverse college students who are at elevated risk for the development of mental health problems.

description: Motivated by the recent diphoton excesses reported by both ATLAS and CMS collaborations, we suggest that a new heavy spinless particle is produced in gluon fusion at the LHC and decays to a couple of lighter pseudoscalars which then decay to photons. The new resonances could arise from a new strongly interacting sector and couple to Standard Model gauge bosons only via the corresponding Wess-Zumino-Witten anomaly. We present a detailed recast of the newest 13 TeV data from ATLAS and CMS together with the 8 TeV data to scan the consistency of the parameter space for those resonances.
