description: The study of superconductivity with unconventional order is complicated in condensed matter systems by their extensive complexity. Optical lattices with their exceptional precision and control allow one to emulate superfluidity avoiding many of the complications of condensed matter. A promising approach to realize unconventional superfluid order is to employ orbital degrees of freedom in higher Bloch bands. In recent work, indications were found that bosons condensed in the second band of an optical chequerboard lattice might exhibit p_x \pm i p_y order. Here we present experiments, which provide strong evidence for the emergence of p_x \pm i p_y order driven by the interaction in the local p-orbitals. We compare our observations with a multi-band Hubbard model and find excellent quantitative agreement.

description: Floquet Majorana fermions are steady states of equal superposition of electrons and holes in a periodically driven superconductor. We study the experimental signatures of Floquet Majorana fermions in transport measurements and show, both analytically and numerically, that their presence is signaled by a quantized conductance sum rule over discrete values of lead bias differing by multiple absorption or emission energies at drive frequency. We also study the effects of static disorder and find that the quantized sum rule is robust against weak disorder. Thus, we offer a unique way to identify the topological signatures of Floquet Majorana fermions.

Three-phase plane composites of minimal elastic stress energy: High-porosity structures
Creators: name: Cherkaev, Andrej
name: Dzierzanowski, Grzegorz
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2013
Subjects: subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The paper establishes exact lower bound on the effective elastic energy of two-dimensional, three-material composite subjected to the homogeneous, anisotropic stress. It is assumed that the materials are mixed with given volume fractions and that one of the phases is degenerated to void, i.e. the effective composite is porous. Explicit formula for the energy bound is obtained using the translation method enhanced with additional inequality expressing certain property of stresses. Sufficient optimality conditions of the energy bound are used to set the requirements which have to be met by the stress fields in each phase of optimal effective material regardless of the complexity of its microstructural geometry. We show that these requirements are fulfilled in a special class of microgeometries, so-called laminates of a rank. Their optimality is elaborated in detail for structures with significant amount of void, also referred to as high-porosity structures. It is shown that geometrical parameters of optimal multi-rank, high-porosity laminates are different in various ranges of volume fractions and anisotropy level of external stress. Non-laminate, three-phase microstructures introduced by other authors and their optimality in high-porosity regions is also discussed by means of the sufficient conditions technique. Conjectures regarding low-porosity regions are presented, but full treatment of this issue is postponed to a separate publication. The corresponding "G-closure problem" of a three-phase isotropic composite is also addressed and exact bounds on effective isotropic properties are explicitly determined in these regions where the stress energy bound is optimal.

description: For many years, the global population of honey bees has been decreasing due to inconclusive reasons resulting in the syndrome Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD). This syndrome has been plaguing bees and affecting commercial agriculture pollination since 1998. Many researchers have suggested that pesticides, in-hive chemicals, pathogens, etc., might be the causes of CCD. Researchers also believe that any changes in a beehive can disturb the bees, which may negatively affect their health. Honey bees are the most vital among all the animal pollinators contributing to approximately 30% of the world’s commercial pollination services. As they are of keystone importance to their respective ecosystems, monitoring their hives is crucial for understanding the effects of CCD and enabling beekeepers to maintain the health of their hives.
As beekeepers cannot monitor their hives continuously, electronic beehive monitoring (EBM) can help them keep an eye on their hives. EBM extracts the videos, audios, temperature using cameras, microphones, sensors for observing the forager traffic (incoming and outgoing flow of the bees through the hive) to track food and nectar availability, following the sounds of the buzzing, and monitoring the abrupt temperature changes. EBM reduces the number of invasive inspections and transportation costs incurred for traveling to the beehive location. This research proposes a new technique using reinforcement learning, a method based on a reward/punishment strategy and aims at providing both accurate and energy efficient classification techniques to improve individual bee recognition in bee traffic videos.

description: The major extant relativity theories - Galileo's Relativity (GaR), Lorentz's Relativity (LR) and Einstein's Special Relativity (SR), with the latter much celebrated, while the LR is essentially ignored. Indeed it is often incorrectly claimed that SR and LR are experimentally indistinguishable. Here we show that (i) SR and LR are experimentally distinguishable, (ii) that comparison of gas-mode Michelson interferometer experiments with spacecraft earth-flyby Doppler shift data demonstrate that it is LR that is consistent with the data, while SR is in conflict with the data, (iii) SR is exactly derivable from GaR by means of a mere linear change of space and time coordinates that mixes the Galilean space and time coordinates. So it is GaR and SR that are equivalent. Hence the well-known SR relativistic effects are purely coordinate effects, and cannot correspond to the observed relativistic effects. The connections between these three relativity theories has become apparent following the discovery that space is an observable dynamical textured system, and that space and time are distinct phenomena, leading to a neo-Lorentz Relativity (nLR). The observed relativistic effects are dynamical consequences of nLR and 3-space. In particular a proper derivation of the Dirac equation from nLR is given, which entails the derivation of the rest mass energy mc^2

The impact of contextual factors on the quality of teacher and paraprofessional relationships
Creators: name: Foeldes, Julie Elizabeth
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2022

description: The current study examined whether paraprofessional ratings of stress, as measured by the Paraprofessional Stress and Support Assessment (PSSA), and independent observer ratings of student externalizing behavior, as measured by a modified version of the Behavior Observation of Students in Schools (BOSS), predict paraprofessional and teacher relationship quality, as rated by paraprofessionals, and measured by the Paraprofessional Teacher Relationship Scale (PTRS). This study included a sample of 79 paraprofessionals and 221 kindergarten through fifth grade students with or at-risk for Externalizing Behavior Disorders (EBDs) from 58 elementary schools. Paraprofessionals reported experiencing low stress levels and high relationship quality with teachers, and externalizing behaviors were observed between 2-23% of the time during independent observations. Student externalizing behavior and paraprofessional rated stress did not appear to be significantly predictive of the quality of paraprofessional-teacher relationships. There were no significant correlations between stress, student externalizing behaviors, and the quality relationships between teachers and paraprofessionals. Limitations and implications for research and practice are discussed.
title: Comparing Theoretical Explanations Regarding United States Decision-Making on Regime Change in Peru and in Chile from 1968 to 1973
Creators: name: Roberts, Lauren
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2021

description: This thesis examined the common idea that the CIA is a regime change advocate by testing the merits of two competing political science theories, one focused on internal (endogenous) influences within CIA and one focused on external (exogenous) pressures on CIA emanating from the American public and elected officials. This was accomplished through two case studies – one where the CIA conducted covert regime change operations and one where it did not. Of the two hypotheses, public choice theory, which focused on the external pressure on the CIA, offers the most potential as an explanatory tool for CIA involvement in regime change. While cultural variables were identified in an examination of memoirs and government documents, there was no consistency across the two cases. Through analysis of external pressures, CIA efforts matched what the public’s, the president’s, and Congress’s attention was focused on—Chile and not Peru.

description: The article considers an adaptive sequential nonparametric estimation of a multivariate regression with assigned mean integrated squared error (MISE) and minimax mean stopping time when the estimator matches performance of an oracle knowing all nuisance parameters and functions. It is known that the problem has no solution if regression belongs to a Sobolev class of differentiable functions. What if an underlying regression is smoother, say, analytic? It is shown that in this case it is possible to match performance of the oracle. Furthermore, similar to the classical Stein solution for a parameter estimation, a two-stage sequential procedure solves the problem. The proposed regression estimator for the first stage, based on a sample with fixed sample size, is of interest on its own, and a thought-provoking environmental example of reducing potent greenhouse gas emission by an anaerobic digestion system is used to discuss a number of important topics for small samples.

Theoretical Challenges in Acceleration and Transport of Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays: A Review

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

description: The wealth of data collected in the last few years thanks to the Pierre Auger Observatory and recently to the Telescope Array made the problem of the origin of ultra high energy cosmic rays a genuinely experimental/observational one. The apparently contradictory results provided by these experiments in terms of spectrum, chemical composition and anisotropies do not allow to reach any final conclusions as yet. Here I will discuss some of the theoretical challenges imposed by these data: in particular I will discuss some issues related to the transition from Galactic to extragalactic cosmic rays and how the different models confront our understanding of Galactic cosmic rays in terms of supernova remnants paradigm. I will also discuss the status of theories aiming at describing acceleration of cosmic rays to the highest energies in relativistic shocks and unipolar inductors.

title: Seeding Rate, Nitrogen Fertilzer, and Cutting Timing Effects on Teff Forage Yield and Nutritive Value
Creators: name: Laca, Michael C.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2021

description: Teff [Eragostis tef (Zucc.) Trotter] is a relatively new forage gaining popularity in the United States; however, information regarding agronomic production practices is lacking. This study was conducted to determine the combination of seeding rate, fertilization, and harvest timing to optimize teff dry-matter yield (DMY) and nutritive value. Four seeding rates (2, 5, 8, and 11 lb/acre), four nitrogen (N) fertilizer rates (0, 25, 50, and 100 lb/acre), and two harvest strategies [boot stage (2-cut) and full seed-head stage (1-cut; stockpiled)] were evaluated in 2010 and 2011 in Kaysville, UT and Yerington, NV. The effects of harvest (1- vs 2-cuts), seeding rate, N level, location, and year had a significant (P < 0.05) effect on teff dry-matter yield (DMY). Two-cut management produced 22% more DMY compared to stockpiled teff. Only at a seeding rate of 2 lb/acre was a significant (P < 0.05) decrease in teff DMY observed. Teff DMY responded significantly (P < 0.05) to each N treatment ranging from 4,457 lb/acre with no N applied to 8,394 lb/acre at 100 lb N applied. On average, the Kaysville, UT site produced 10% more DMY than Yerington, NV at 6,008 lb/acre. A 33% reduction (P < 0.05) in DMY was observed from 2010 to 2011. Responses to increased N fertilizer and DMY under stockpiled forage were not consistent across locations. Only at the UT site was there an associated increase in DMY (P < 0.05) with increased N. Under a 2-cut management, there were observed increases in DMY with increased N levels at both locations. Levels of crude protein (CP) and in-vitro true digestibility (IVTD48) were not affected by seeding rate, while acid detergent fiber (ADF) values remained constant regardless of location. Variation in locations and years had no effect on digestible neutral detergent fiber (dNDF48) values. Regardless of management or location, CP concentrations were greater when 100 lb N/acre was applied, while CP concentrations were similar among lower N levels. The results of this experiment suggest that under a 2-cut management system, teff economics will be optimized with a fertilizer application of 100 lb N/acre at a seeding rate of 5 lb/acre.

description: In this paper will construct and analyse the superloop space formulation of a $\mathcal{N} =1$ supergauge theory in three dimensions. We will obtain expressions for the connection and the curvature in this superloop space in terms of ordinary supergauge fields. This curvature will vanish, unless there is a monopole in the spacetime. We will also construct a quantity which will give the monopole charge in this formalism. Finally, we will show how these results even hold for a deformed superspace.

description: We compute the elliptic genera of two-dimensional N=(2,2) and N=(0,2) gauged linear sigma models via supersymmetric localization, for rank-one gauge groups. The elliptic genus is expressed as a sum over residues of a meromorphic function whose argument is the holonomy of the gauge field along both the spatial and the temporal directions of the torus. We illustrate our formulas by a few examples including the quintic Calabi-Yau, N=(2,2) SU(2) and O(2) gauge theories coupled to N fundamental chiral multiplets, and a geometric N=(0,2) model.

Constraints on the pairing properties of main sequence stars from observations of white dwarfs in binary systems
Creators: name: Ferrario, Lilia
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Observations of main sequence stars conducted over the last several decades have clearly shown that something like 50 per cent of stars of spectral types G and F occur in multiple systems. For earlier spectral types, the incidence of multiplicity is even higher. Thus, a volume limited sample of white dwarfs should reflect the percentage of binarity observed in stars of F to late B spectral types, which are their Main Sequence progenitors. However, a study of the local volume limited sample of white dwarfs (20 pc from the Sun) conducted by Holberg has shown that a white dwarf has a probability of only $\sim 32$ per cent of occurring in a binary system, in stark contrast to the observations of multiplicity of Main Sequence stars. Others studies have also led to the same conclusion. In this paper, we argue that the "hidden" white dwarfs are either in double white dwarf systems or in Sirius-like systems. We also show that the white dwarf progenitors of the SDSS white dwarf - M dwarf wide binaries are distributed according to Salpeter's IMF. However, they cannot be paired with secondary stars which are also drawn from this IMF, since such a pairing would produce a percentage of white dwarf-M dwarfs systems that is several times larger than observed.

title: 3D-Printed Morphing Wings for Controlling Yaw on Flying-Wing Aircraft
Creators: name: Moulton, Benjamin C.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2021

description: The flaps on an airplane wing are used to control the aircraft during flight. These flaps traditionally have at most three articulation or hinge points. Recent studies have shown improved flap efficiency using a conformal flap, which deforms following a curved shape. Much of aircraft improvement comes through increasing its efficiency during flight. This efficiency is generally improved by decreasing the drag force on the aircraft. A potential solution to decrease drag is to remove additional lifting surfaces, such as the horizontal and vertical stabilizer ubiquitous on general aviation aircraft. These additional lifting surfaces are used to trim and control the aircraft during flight. A flying-wing aircraft, which has no additional lifting surfaces, is trimmed and controlled using multiple flaps along the main wing. 3D-printing the mechanisms used to control these flaps has significant advantages. 3D-printing is fast, cheap, easy to repeat, easy to replicate, and produces durable parts. Two morphing mechanisms manufactured using 3D-printing are presented as viable solutions to demonstrate yaw control on a flying-wing aircraft. The Airfoil Recambering Compliant System (ARCS) is presented as a solution for a wing using a single flap with multiple actuators. The Kinetic Internal Nexus Compliant System (KINCS) is presented as a solution for a wing using multiple flaps, each with a single actuator. The final KINCS design used for a prototype flying-wing aircraft is presented.

description: Discovered numerically by Kuramoto and Battogtokh in 2002, chimera states are spatiotemporal patterns in which regions of coherence and incoherence coexist. These mathematical oddities were recently reproduced in a laboratory setting sparking a flurry of interest in their properties. Here we use asymptotic methods to derive the conditions under which two-dimensional chimeras, similar to those observed in the experiments, can appear in a periodic space. We also use numerical integration to explore the dynamics of these chimeras and determine which are dynamically stable.

description: My dissertation integrating theory and practice into fostering sustainable, ecofriendly, and equitable public policy that promote the well-being of generations to come. My main research questions are: how can we transform the complex socioeconomic systems to build future resilience? In the first chapter, I identify and quantify the effect of the presence of tight oil and gas extraction on the agricultural productivity. This study informs evidence-based policymaking on pressing environmental issues. In the next chapter, I studied the effectiveness of existing policy of urban growth control from an evolutionary landscape and found that the decades-old regulation does not fulfill its goal. I worked on long-term, high-resolution spatial-temporal satellite data from multiple sources to make the policy assessment achievable and accessible. This research design, instrumental in explaining the choice of the program enrollment, provides strong grounds for policy realignment that benefits the regional economies and promotes agricultural sustainability. In the final chapter, I evaluate the unintended effect of Shelter-in-Place order for COVID-19 in the United States while accounting for unobserved seasonality and the potential endogeneity of the policy. I find that counties with the Shelter-in-Place order have higher in percent of good AQI.

description: Photons are the primary energy source for most life on Earth, as they drive photosynthesis, a process that turns the CO2 in air into food. One crucial parameters for the optimization of growth is leaf area, which determines the ability of a plant to capture photons for photosynthesis. In order to gain access to photons in shaded environments, plants have evolved unique sensors, called photoreceptors, which respond to changes in the color and intensity of light.
Far-red photons (photons at the edge of human vision that appear as dim red light) hold particular promise in regulating plant shape and photon capture. These photons are minimally absorbed by chlorophyll, and are thus enriched in the shade – making them a potent signal of the presence of shade. These photons have been shown to increase leaf area and stem elongation, which increase access to photons, and thus increase plant growth. Additionally, the lower energy of far-red photons make them particularly useful for reducing the massive requirement for electrical power in indoor agriculture.
Here, I describes how far-red interacts with blue, green, and red photons to affect plant morphology. I compare traditional and newly developed models/metrics that predict the action of far-red through a photoreceptor called phytochrome. Additionally, I discuss their interactions with total photon intensity.
title: Exact and Approximate Relaxation Techniques for Computational Guidance

description: The focus of this dissertation is in the development and application of relaxation techniques that enable efficient and real-time solution of complex computational guidance problems. Relaxations transform a non-convex constraint into a convex constraint and provides proof that the optimal solutions to the relaxed problem are optimal for the original problem. Unique contributions of this work include: 1) a relaxation technique for solving fixed final time problems between fixed points, 2) a performance analysis on the application of computational guidance for the Mars Ascent Vehicle, and 3) establishment of sufficient conditions for non-singularity of optimal control for problems on a smooth manifold with mixed constraints. The first result states that for annularly constrained linear systems, controllability is a sufficient condition for the problem to be solvable as a sequence of convex programs. The second result applies relaxations to an ascent problem. The third result is the most general result to date for problems with mixed constraints. It uses a minimum principle on manifolds with mixed constraints to analyze the problem in a geometric framework, and shows that strong observability of the dual system is sufficient for non-singularity.
title: Numerical and Experimental Study of Anisotropic Effective Thermal Conductivity of Particle Beds under Uniaxial Compression

description: Measurements of in situ planetary thermal conductivity are typically made using long needle-like probes inserted in a planet's surface, which measure effective thermal conductivity (ETC) in radial direction (parallel to surface). The desired vertical (perpendicular to surface) ETC is assumed to be the same as the horizontal. However, ETC of particle beds in vertical and horizontal directions is known to be an anisotropic property under low compressive pressures. This study further examines the anisotropy of bed ETC under low and high compressive pressures in both vacuum and air environments. The ratio of vertical to horizontal stress, K0, is measured for the particles used in these experiments. A resistance network heat transfer model has been developed in predicting the vertical and the horizontal ETC as a function of applied compressive pressure. The model predicts vertical ETC by using only macro-contact thermal resistances for both high and low applied compressive pressure regimes. It is proposed that the vertical and horizontal ETC of particle beds under uniaxial compression is related by compressive pressures in each direction. The horizontal compressive pressure, which is perpendicular to the applied compressive pressure, can be calculated with the use of at-rest pressure coefficient and subsequently used in macro-contact thermal resistance to predict the horizontal ETC. The vertical ETC is obtained using the same model by substituting vertical compressive pressure into macro-contact thermal resistance. A two-dimensional axisymmetric finite element model in the COMSOL Multiphysics software package has been developed to simulate heat transfer coupled with structural deformation of spheres under compressive pressures in a simple cubic (SC) packing arrangement. The numerical model is used as a tool to predict the lower limit of bed ETC as well as validating thermal contact resistance used in the theoretical model. The predictions from the numerical model can be extended to particle beds with different packing arrangements.

description: A honeycomb lattice system has four types of Dirac electrons corresponding to the spin and valley degrees of freedom. We consider a state that contains only one type of massless electrons and three types of massive ones, which we call the single Dirac-cone state. We analyze quantum Hall (QH) effects in this state. We make a detailed investigation of the Chern and spin-Chern numbers. We make clear the origin of unconventional QH effects discovered in graphene. We also show that the single Dirac-cone state may have arbitrary large spin-Chern numbers in magnetic field. Such a state will be generated in antiferromagnetic transition-metal oxides under electric field or silicene with antiferromagnetic order under electric field.

Why isolated streamer discharges hardly exist above the breakdown field in atmospheric air

description: We investigate streamer formation in the troposphere, in electric fields above the breakdown threshold. With fully three-dimensional particle simulations, we study the combined effect of natural background ionization and of photoionization on the discharge morphology. In previous investigations based on deterministic fluid models without background ionization, so-called double-headed streamers emerged. But in our improved model, many electron avalanches start to grow at different locations. Eventually the avalanches collectively screen the electric field in the interior of the discharge. This happens after what we call the `ionization screening time', for which we give an analytical estimate. As this time is comparable to the streamer formation time, we conclude that isolated streamers are unlikely to exist in fields well above breakdown in atmospheric air.

Therapist experiences with religion and spirituality in treatment: a qualitative study
Creators: name: Bier, Aliza Lasky
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: Despite research suggesting that approximately 72% of Americans self-identify as religious, there is evidence that religion and spirituality (r/s) are not sufficiently addressed in mental health treatment. However, the reasons for this are not well understood. The current study sought to identify barriers in addressing r/s in treatment by interviewing psychologists about their experiences navigating r/s with clients. This study explored both general barriers as well as therapist-specific factors that might serve as barriers. Eight doctoral-level psychologists were interviewed using a semi-structured format. A Grounded Theory analysis was conducted to identify themes present in the data. Findings in the current study did not support the notion that therapists avoid addressing r/s in treatment. However, some barriers and challenges in addressing r/s in treatment were identified: client guardedness, client assumptions about the therapist, therapist lack of knowledge and training, therapist difficulty maintaining a clinical role and withholding personal r/s beliefs, and r/s differences between client and therapist. Regarding therapist-specific barriers, several factors emerged as potentially impacting the ways therapists address r/s in treatment: gender, race, r/s identity, changes in r/s identity over time, therapeutic modality, and years in practice. The Grounded Theory analysis revealed eight global themes; limited supervision and training, r/s as a resource, attention to maladaptive r/s beliefs, increased comfort with r/s over time, following the client’s lead with areas of identity, r/s as a shared language, looking at the relevance of r/s for the specific client, overlap between r/s and relationships, and an “I’m not the judge” mentality. From these themes, a tentative model for incorporating r/s into therapist training, supervision, and clinical work was developed. Additional implications and suggestions for future research are discussed.
Electronic structure of single-crystalline Mg$_x$Al$_{1-x}$B$_2$ probed by x-ray diffraction multipole refinements and polarization-dependent x-ray absorption spectroscopy

description: X-ray diffraction multipole refinements of single-crystalline Mg$_x$Al$_{1-x}$B$_2$ and polarization-dependent near-edge x-ray absorption fine structure at the B 1$s$ edge reveal a strongly anisotropic electronic structure. Comparing the data for superconducting compounds ($x= 0.8$, 1.0) with those for the non-superconductor ($x=0$) gives direct evidence for a rearrangement of the hybridizations of the boron $p_z$ bonds and underline the importance of holes in the $σ$-bonded covalent $sp^2$ states for the superconducting properties of the diborides. The data indicate that Mg is approximately divalent in MgB$_2$ and suggest predominantly ionic bonds between the Mg ions and the two-dimensional B rings. For AlB$_2$ ($x=0$), on the other hand, about 1.5 electrons per Al atom are transferred to the B sheets while the residual 1.5 electrons remain at the Al site which suggests significant covalent bonding between the Al ions and the B sheets. This finding together with the static electron deformation density points to almost equivalent electron counts on B sheets of MgB$_2$ and AlB$_2$\@, yet with a completely different electron/hole distribution between the $σ$ and $π$ bonds.
