Carolina Forum: New Towns in Limbo: An Interview With Soul City Developer, Floyd B. McKissick, Sr.; Letters: The Greenville CCEM
Creators: name: Sadler, Forrest G. H.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1979

description: This edition of Carolina Forum includes: NEW TOWNS IN LIMBO: AN INTERVIEW WITH SOUL CITY DEVELOPER, FLOYD B. MCKISSICK, SR.: Even though plans for the freestanding new community of Soul City were announced in January, 1969 and application was submitted to HUD in 1970, it was not until June, 1972 that HUD made the commitment to guarantee $14 million worth of bonds for the development. It was March, 1974 when the bonds were made available and $5 million were actually sold at that time. In December, 1976 a second $5 million was borrowed for a variety of projects in a three-county area, including a regional water system servicing over 50,000 users and a HealthCo clinic currently treating 60 outpatients per day in a two-county area. Soul City still lacks sewer capacity but this will be remedied by a new sewage treatment plant planned for Warren County which will benefit all the county's residents. Until adequate facilities are completed, further development of Soul City will be difficult. Good recreational facilities are available at Soul City, the only ones of public access in the county, and a fire station is nearly complete, both of which serve basic needs in any community. LETTERS: THE GREENVILLE CCEM: Last year, Greenville, N.C. was chosen as one of twelve cities in the nation to be awarded a grant from the U.S. Department of Energy for development of a Comprehensive Community Energy Management Plan (CCEM). Although there are a number of cities (Davis, Calif.; Portland, Ore.; Franklin County, Mass.) in the forefront of energy planning to provide models for CCEM plan development, there has been only limited experience with such programs in North Carolina. This CCEM program, which is being directed by Greenville Utilities, will provide the opportunity to systematically consider energy management strategies tailored to Greenville's peculiar needs. Greenville was the smallest city chosen for the DOE program, and the only CCEM program to be administered by a utility company. This relationship carries with it some interesting implications.
Tac2Structure: Object Surface Reconstruction Only through Multi Times Touch

description: Inspired by humans' ability to perceive the surface texture of unfamiliar objects without relying on vision, the sense of touch can play a crucial role in robots exploring the environment, particularly in scenes where vision is difficult to apply, or occlusion is inevitable. Existing tactile surface reconstruction methods rely on external sensors or have strong prior assumptions, making the operation complex and limiting their application scenarios. This paper presents a framework for low-drift surface reconstruction through multiple tactile measurements, Tac2Structure. Compared with existing algorithms, the proposed method uses only a new vision-based tactile sensor without relying on external devices. Aiming at the difficulty that reconstruction accuracy is easily affected by the pressure at contact, we propose a correction algorithm to adapt it. The proposed method also reduces the accumulative errors that occur easily during global object surface reconstruction. Multi-frame tactile measurements can accurately reconstruct object surfaces by jointly using the point cloud registration algorithm, loop-closure detection algorithm based on deep learning, and pose graph optimization algorithm. Experiments verify that Tac2Structure can achieve millimeter-level accuracy in reconstructing the surface of objects, providing accurate tactile information for the robot to perceive the surrounding environment.

Uncertainty relations for the support of quantum states

description: Given a narrow signal over the real line, there is a limit to the localisation of its Fourier transform. In spaces of prime dimensions, Tao derived a sharp state-independent uncertainty relation which holds for the support sizes of a pure qudit state in two bases related by a discrete Fourier transform. We generalise Tao's uncertainty relation to complete sets of mutually unbiased bases in spaces of prime dimensions. The bound we obtain appears to be sharp for dimension three only. Analytic and numerical results for prime dimensions up to nineteen suggest that the bound cannot be saturated in general. For prime dimensions two to seven we construct sharp bounds on the support sizes in $(d+1)$ mutually unbiased bases and identify some of the states achieving them.

description: This paper provides a deterministic channel model for a scenario where wireless connectivity is established through a reflection off a smooth planar surface of an infinite extent. The developed model is rigorously built upon the physics of wave propagation and is as precise as tight are the unboundedness and smoothness assumptions on the surface. This model allows establishing how line-of-sight multiantenna communication is altered by a reflection off an electrically large surface, a situation of high interest for mmWave and terahertz frequencies.

description: Ferroelectric van der Waals heterostructures provide a natural platform to design a variety of electrically controllable devices. In this work, we demonstrate that AB bilayer graphene encapsulated in MoTe$_2$ acts as a valley valve that displays a switchable built-in topological gap, leading to ferroelectrically driven topological channels. Using a combination of ab initio calculations and low energy models, we show that the ferroelectric order of MoTe$_2$ allows the control of the gap opening in bilayer graphene and leads to topological channels between different ferroelectric domains. Moreover, we analyze the effect that the moiré modulation between MoTe$_2$ and graphene layers has in the topological modes, demonstrating that the edge states are robust against moiré modulations of the ferroelectrically-induced electric potential. Our results put forward ferroelectric/graphene heterostructures as versatile platforms to engineer switchable built-in topological channels without requiring an external electric bias.

description: We study the dimension-6 quark anomalous electroweak couplings in the formulation of linearly realized effective Lagrangian. We investigate the constraints on these anomalous couplings from the $pp \rightarrow W^+W^-$ process in detail at the LHC. With additional kinematic cuts, we find that the 14 TeV LHC can provide a test of anomalous couplings of $O(0.1-1)\,{\rm TeV}^{-2}$. The $pp \rightarrow ZZ/Zγ/γγ$ processes can provide a good complement as they are sensitive to those anomalous couplings which do not affect the $pp \rightarrow W^+W^-$ process. Those processes that only contain anomalous triple vertices, like $p p \to W^* \to l ν_l$ or $p p \to γ^* / Z^* \to l^+ l^-$, can improve the sensitivities to $O(0.01-0.1)\,{\rm TeV}^{-2}$. We also study the kinematic differences between different anomalous couplings and discuss the potential of the $χ^2$-analysis to distinguish them. Finally, we discuss the detection ability of the possible future 100 TeV proton-proton collider(SPPC), and find that the detection sensitivity is improved by about one order of magnitude compared with the LHC.

description: David Godschalk has served as the faculty advisor for Carolina Planning since the journal was launched in 1975. He now shares his experience with the CP community. "I see Carolina Planning as a bridge between planning practice and planning education. Like all bridges, it is a combination of art, structure, and budget. However, the Carolina Planning bridge is unique in that it must be continuously rebuilt. Every year, a new team of editors must select important current articles, design the layout, arrange for printing, and collaborate with the North Carolina APA officers on a publication budget and distribution plan. Remarkably, this challenging enterprise has succeeded year after year for almost three decades."

description: The pursuit of the non-Hermitian skin effect (NHSE) in various physical systems is of great research interest. Compared with recent progress in non-electronic systems, the implementation of the NHSE in condensed matter physics remains elusive. Here, we show that the NHSE can be engineered in the mesoscopic heterojunctions (system plus reservoir) in which electrons in two channels of the system moving towards each other have asymmetric coupling to those of the reservoir. This makes electrons in the system moving forward and in the opposite direction have unequal lifetimes, and so gives rise to a point-gap spectral topology. Accordingly, the electron eigenstates exhibit NHSE under the open boundary condition, consistent with the description of the generalized Brillouin zone. Such a reservoir-engineered NHSE visibly manifests itself as the nonreciprocal charge current that can be probed by the standard transport measurements. Further, we generalize the scenario to the spin-resolved NHSE, which can be probed by the nonreciprocal spin transport. Our work opens a new research avenue for implementing and detecting the NHSE in electronic mesoscopic systems, which will lead to interesting device applications.

description: Recent studies have shown that galaxies at cosmic noon are redder in the center and bluer in the outskirts, mirroring results in the local universe. These color gradients could be caused by either gradients in the stellar age or dust opacity; however, distinguishing between these two causes is impossible with rest-frame optical photometry alone. Here we investigate the underlying causes of the gradients from spatially-resolved rest-frame $U-V$ vs. $V-J$ color-color diagrams, measured from early observations with the James Webb Space Telescope. We use $1\, μm - 4\, μm$ NIRCam photometry from the CEERS survey of a sample of 54 galaxies with $M_* / M_\odot>10$ at redshifts $1.7

Local Land-Use Planning and Natural Hazards in Coastal North Carolina
Creators: name: Roenigk, Dale
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1992

description: The North Carolina Coastal Area Management Act (CAMA) of 1974 was designed to protect coastal resources. This legislation required local governments in the coastal region to develop land-use plans to guide development. While many saw a strong need to control growth in the region, few local governments managed land use. Proponents of the law believed that local land-use planning could protect the environment from unwise growth, while still allowing local control of development. To determine CAMA's impact after more than a decade, we interviewed thirty local governments in North Carolina. This research was part of a larger National Science Foundation-sponsored study of land-use planning in North Carolina and four other states. The results from these interviews and additional surveys indicate that CAMA has played a critical role in shaping land-use planning in the coastal region. Furthermore, the evidence suggests that, while the mandate is still necessary to ensure local land-use planning in most communities, CAMA has increased support for planning and may be playing a long-term educational role. In this article, we provide a brief history of CAMA and its land-use planning requirements, particularly those related to natural hazards. We then examine the findings from our interviews and their implications for the future.

description: The monumental Late Bonze Age royal tomb of Seddin is located in the old morainic landscape of the Prignitz region, northeastern Germany. Together with other richly equipped burials and a row of stone pits in its direct vicinity, it provides evidence for the presence of an elite from the nineth to sixth centuries BCE in this region. Our map emphasizes the well-chosen location of the royal tomb in relation to the spatial arrangement of other archaeological monuments that together form an ensemble of a ritual landscape. We trace legacies of land use from the Bronze Age to the present against the backdrop of Late Quaternary landscape evolution. These include the Bronze Age landscape (re-)organization for ritual and economic purposes, its medieval use for arable farming, its economic use and settlement history in historic times, and modern times melioration of agricultural areas that together form the palimpsest of the present-day landscape.
Generalized non-equilibrium vertex correction method in coherent medium theory for quantum transport simulation of disordered nanoelectronics

description: In realistic nanoelectronics, disordered impurities/defects are inevitable and play important roles in electron transport. However, due to the lack of effective quantum transport method to do disorder average, the important effects of disorders remain largely un-explored or poorly understood. Here, we report a generalized non-equilibrium vertex correction method with coherent potential approximation for the non-equilibrium quantum transport simulation of disordered nanoelectronics. In this method, the disorder average of various Green's functions are computed by a generalized coherent potential approximation. A generalized non-equilibrium vertex correction algorithm is then developed to calculate disorder average of the product of any two real time single-particle Green's functions. We obtain nine non-equilibrium vertex corrections and find they can be solved by a set of simple linear equations. As a result, the averaged non-equilibrium density matrix and various important transport properties, including averaged current, disordered induced current fluctuation and the averaged shot noise, can all be efficiently computed in a unified simple scheme. Moreover, the relationship between the non-equilibrium vertex correction method and the non-equilibrium coherent potential approximation theory is clarified, and we prove the non-equilibrium coherent potential equals the non-equilibrium vertex correction and this equivalence is guaranteed by the Keldysh's formulas. In addition, a generalized form of conditionally averaged non-equilibrium Green's function is derived to incorporate with density functional theory to enable first-principles quantum transport simulation. Our approach provides a unified, efficient and self-consistent method for simulating non-equilibrium quantum transport through disordered nanoelectronics.

description: We show that interlayer Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction in combination with non-local Gilbert damping gives rise to unidirectional magnetic coupling. That is, the coupling between two magnetic layers -- say the left and right layer -- is such that dynamics of the left layer leads to dynamics of the right layer, but not vice versa. We discuss the implications of this result for the magnetic susceptibility of a magnetic bilayer, electrically-actuated spin-current transmission, and unidirectional spin-wave packet generation and propagation. Our results may enable a route towards spin-current and spin-wave diodes and further pave the way to design spintronic devices via reservoir engineering.

description: As gas giant planets and brown dwarfs radiate away the residual heat from their formation, they cool through a spectral type transition from L to T, which encompasses the dissipation of cloud opacity and the appearance of strong methane absorption. While there are hundreds of known T-type brown dwarfs, the first generation of directly-imaged exoplanets were all L-type. Recently, Kuzuhara et al. (2013) announced the discovery of GJ 504 b, the first T dwarf exoplanet. GJ 504 b provides a unique opportunity to study the atmosphere of a new type of exoplanet with a ~500 K temperature that bridges the gap between the first directly imaged planets (~1000 K) and our own Solar System's Jupiter (~130 K). We observed GJ 504 b in three narrow L-band filters (3.71, 3.88, and 4.00 microns), spanning the red end of the broad methane fundamental absorption feature (3.3 microns) as part of the LEECH exoplanet imaging survey. By comparing our new photometry and literature photometry to a grid of custom model atmospheres, we were able to fit GJ 504 b's unusual spectral energy distribution for the first time. We find that GJ 504 b is well-fit by models with the following parameters: T_eff=544+/-10 K, g<600 m/s^2, [M/H]=0.60+/-0.12, cloud opacity parameter of f_sed=2-5, R=0.96+/-0.07 R_Jup, and log(L)=-6.13+/-0.03 L_Sun, implying a hot start mass of 3-30 M_jup for a conservative age range of 0.1-6.5 Gyr. Of particular interest, our model fits suggest that GJ 504 b has a super-stellar metallicity. Since planet formation can create objects with non-stellar metallicities, while binary star formation cannot, this result suggests that GJ 504 b formed like a planet, not like a binary companion.

description: We study the dynamics of perturbations around nonthermal fixed points associated to universal scaling phenomena in quantum many-body systems far from equilibrium. For an N-component scalar quantum field theory in 3+1 space-time dimensions, we determine the stability scaling exponents using a self-consistent large-N expansion to next-to-leading order. Our analysis reveals the presence of both stable and unstable perturbations, the latter leading to quasi-exponential deviations from the fixed point in the infrared. We identify a tower of far-from-equilibrium quasi-particle states and their dispersion relations by computing the spectral function. With the help of linear response theory, we demonstrate that unstable dynamics arises from a competition between elastic scattering processes among the quasi-particle states. What ultimately renders the fixed point dynamically attractive is the phenomenon of a scaling instability, which is the universal scaling of the unstable regime towards the infrared due to a self-similar quasi-particle cascade. Our results provide ab initio understanding of emergent stability properties in self-organized scaling phenomena.

Central American Refugee Planning

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries

description: In the 1980s, "Central America" became synonymous with civil war, economic collapse, human rights abuse, and refugee movement. Because of the complexities of Central American politics, refugees from the region have elicited a highly mixed response, ranging from humanitarian to indifferent to hostile. Individuals and agencies trying to serve these refugees or resettle them are faced with constraints that are more political than logistical. Since the 1970s, 2-3 million refugees have been displaced from their homes in Central America. Central American refugees have presented an unprecedented challenge to planners, relief workers, economists, politicians, administrators, community leaders, and others. Analysis of the refugee planning enacted so far in the region illustrates both appalling and exemplary approaches that can shed light on refugee planning elsewhere.

description: The structure of few-fermion systems having $1/2$ spin-isospin symmetry is studied using potential models. The strength and range of the two-body potentials are fixed to describe low energy observables in the angular momentum $L=0$ state and spin $S=0,1$ channels of the two-body system. Successively the strength of the potentials are varied in order to explore energy regions in which the two-body scattering lengths are close to the unitary limit. This study is motivated by the fact that in the nuclear system the singlet and triplet scattering lengths are both large with respect to the range of the interaction. Accordingly we expect evidence of universal behavior in the three- and four-nucleon systems that can be observed from the study of correlations between observables. In particular we concentrate in the behavior of the first excited state of the three-nucleon system as the system moves away from the unitary limit. We also analyze the dependence on the range of the three-body force of some low-energy observables in the three- and four-nucleon systems.

description: The pressure tensor (equivalent to the negative stress tensor) at both microscopic and macroscopic levels is fundamental to many aspects of engineering and science, including fluid dynamics, solid mechanics, biophysics, and thermodynamics. In this perspective paper, we review methods to calculate the microscopic pressure tensor. Connections between different pressure forms for equilibrium and non-equilibrium systems are established. We also point out several challenges in the field, including the historical controversies over the definition of the microscopic pressure tensor; the difficulties with many-body and long-range potentials; the insufficiency of software and computational tools; and the lack of experimental routes to probe the pressure tensor at the nanoscale. Possible future directions are suggested.

description: Mapping methods to represent the interplay between environmental changes and prehistoric communities were investigated through a case study of the Mediterranean Iberia coastal landscape in the context of Holocene sea-level rise. We developed a four-dimension GIS-based analysis of the environmental evolution based on primary data acquisition (fieldwork, laboratory analyses) and spatial modeling of paleo-Digital Elevation Models (paleoDEMs). Five paleoDEMs were computed, representing key stages of the morphogenetic evolution between 9000 and 7000 years ago. Second, each paleoDEM was used as input in a Site-Catchment Analysis (a 1- and 2-hour walking distance from the archeological sites). Finally, we provide a bird-view visualization of the landscape evolution, centered on the perspective of an individual located at the archeological sites. By shifting the focus to the human scale, this GIS-assisted mapping allows refining assessments of the impact of environmental changes on settlement and subsistence patterns during the Mesolithic and Early Neolithic periods.
Band structure and transport studies of half Heusler compound DyPdBi: An efficient thermoelectric material

description: The discovery of Heusler alloys has revolutionized the research field of intermetallics due to the ease with which one can derive potential candidates for multifunctional applications. During recent years, many half Heusler alloys have been investigated for their thermoelectric properties. The f electron based rare earth ternary half Heusler compound DyPdBi has its f energy levels located close to the Fermi energy level. Other research efforts have emphasized that such materials have good thermoelectric capabilities. We have explored using first principles the electronic band structure of DyPdBi by use of different exchange correlation potentials in the density functional theoretical framework. Transport coefficients that arise in the study of thermoelectric properties of DyPdBi have been calculated and illustrate its potential as an efficient thermoelectric material. Both the theoretically estimated Seebeck coefficient and the power factor agree well with the available experimental results. Our calculations illustrate that it is essential to include spin-orbit coupling in these models of f electron half Heusler materials.

Towards an Updated Approach to Neighborhood Planning
Creators: name: Richman, Alan Mark
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1977

description: Since the publication of the earliest conceptions of the neighborhood by Clarence Perry in the 1920's and the subsequent formalization of neighborhood planning standards and criteria in the manual Planning The Neighborhood (Hygiene of Housing Committee 1960), there have been far-reaching changes of both a social and technical nature which suggest the need for a new look at this approach to neighborhood planning. The purpose of this article is to reexamine the neighborhood unit concept in light of this advancing knowledge and evaluate how applicable those original assumptions underlying the neighborhood are for the contemporary planner developing a process to plan our residential environments. This review begins with a brief synopsis of the earliest physical planning model for neighborhoods. Following this, recent research concerning the relationships between social, mental, and physical outlooks upon, and uses of the neighborhood will be introduced to uncover a broadened array of concerns which should be considered when planning residential environments. These ideas are then applied in an illustrative planning process which concludes the paper.

description: Incremental information, as measured by the quantum entropy, is increasing when two ensembles are united. This result was proved by Lieb and Ruskai, and it is the foundation for the proof of strong subadditivity of quantum entropy. We present a truly elementary proof of this fact in the context of the broader family of matrix entropies introduced by Chen and Tropp.

description: The Last Interglacial period is important for the spread of humans from Africa to Eurasia. Significant wetter climatic conditions allowed humans to live in the present-day arid landscape in Northeastern Africa. However, not only the environment but also other parameters, such as the topography and the availability of good raw material sources, impact past human behaviour. Our mapping with the integration of archaeological sites and environmental archives clarifies regional differences and similarities across Egypt. The Eastern Desert is characterized by a small structured landscape with an above-average occurrence of eligible raw material and it differs from the more homogeneous landscape of the Western Desert with its large palaeo-lakes. The given map allows a more distinct evaluation of regional variabilities for Out-of-Africa’s northern migration route as a complex intermediate scale between a global and local approach to human-environment relations.

description: Given the mixed results found in the literature on the impact of orthography, in this study we examine whether L2 learners of Brazilian Portuguese (BP) establish accurate phonolexical representations of target vowel contrasts (/e/ ~ /ɛ/ and /o/ ~ /ɔ/) in response to diacritics in the input. Specifically, we examine whether learners have more accurate encoding of this contrast when the words are marked with the diacritic than when they are unmarked. In order to examine this relationship, 20 L1 English-L2 BP learners will complete an AX discrimination task, a lexical decision task, and an accent marking task.
