description: In the modern understanding of turbulence, a central concept is the existence of cascades of excitations from large to small lengthscales, or vice-versa. This concept was introduced in 1941 by Kolmogorov and Obukhov, and the phenomenon has since been observed in a variety of systems, including interplanetary plasmas, supernovae, ocean waves, and financial markets. Despite a lot of progress, quantitative understanding of turbulence remains a challenge due to the interplay of many lengthscales that usually thwarts theoretical simulations of realistic experimental conditions. Here we observe the emergence of a turbulent cascade in a weakly interacting homogeneous Bose gas, a quantum fluid that is amenable to a theoretical description on all relevant lengthscales. We prepare a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC) in an optical box, drive it out of equilibrium with an oscillating force that pumps energy into the system at the largest lengthscale, study the BEC's nonlinear response to the periodic drive, and observe a gradual development of a cascade characterised by an isotropic power-law distribution in momentum space. We numerically model our experiments using the Gross-Pitaevskii equation (GPE) and find excellent agreement with the measurements. Our experiments establish the uniform Bose gas as a promising new platform for investigating many aspects of turbulence, including the interplay of vortex and wave turbulence and the relative importance of quantum and classical effects.

description: We extend our previous study of supersymmetric Higgs inflation in the context of no-scale supergravity and grand unification, to include models based on the flipped SU(5) and the Pati-Salam group. Like the previous SU(5) GUT model, these yield a class of inflation models whose inflation predictions interpolate between those of the quadratic chaotic inflation and Starobinsky-like inflation, while avoiding tension with proton decay limits. We further analyse the reheating process in these models, and derive the number of e-folds, which is independent of the reheating temperature. We derive the corresponding predictions for the scalar tilt and the tensor-to-scalar ratio in cosmic microwave background perturbations, as well as discussing the gravitino production following inflation.

description: We study the Tracy-Widom distribution function for Dyson's $β$-ensemble with $β= 6$. The starting point of our analysis is the recent work of I. Rumanov where he produces a Lax-pair representation for the Bloemendal-Virág equation. The latter is a linear PDE which describes the Tracy-Widom functions corresponding to general values of $β$. Using his Lax pair, Rumanov derives an explicit formula for the Tracy-Widom $β=6$ function in terms of the second Painlevé transcendent and the solution of an auxiliary ODE. Rumanov also shows that this formula allows him to derive formally the asymptotic expansion of the Tracy-Widom function. Our goal is to make Rumanov's approach and hence the asymptotic analysis it provides rigorous. In this paper, the first one in a sequel, we show that Rumanov's Lax-pair can be interpreted as a certain gauge transformation of the standard Lax pair for the second Painlevé equation. This gauge transformation though contains functional parameters which are defined via some auxiliary nonlinear ODE which is equivalent to the auxiliary ODE of Rumanov's formula. The gauge-interpretation of Rumanov's Lax-pair allows us to highlight the steps of the original Rumanov's method which needs rigorous justifications in order to make the method complete. We provide a rigorous justification of one of these steps. Namely, we prove that the Painlevé function involved in Rumanov's formula is indeed, as it has been suggested by Rumanov, the Hastings-McLeod solution of the second Painlevé equation. The key issue which we also discuss and which is still open is the question of integrability of the auxiliary ODE in Rumanov's formula. We note that this question is crucial for the rigorous asymptotic analysis of the Tracy-Widom function.

description: In this thesis the detection of volatile chlorinated and fluorinated compounds using ion mobility spectrometry is described. This technique is characterized by its low detection limits (low ng/L range without preconcentration), short time of analysis (ms-range) and selective detectability of different chemical classes at ambient pressure. For the detection of the substances described, the mobility spectrometers were equipped with radioactive sources (63Ni-IMS) and partial discharges (PD-IMS), and their analytical figures of merit were determined. By coupling the PD ion source to an atmospheric pressure quadrupole mass spectrometer, an insight into the reactions taking place in PD-IMS was provided and the reactant and analyte ions of chlorinated and fluorinated carbons were characterized.
description: In der vorliegenden Dissertation wird die Detektion flüchtiger chlorierter und fluorierter Verbindungen mit Hilfe der Ionenbeweglichkeitsspektrometrie beschrieben. Diese Technik zeichnet sich durch niedrige Detektionsgrenzen (unterer ng/L-Bereich ohne Voranreicherung), kurze Analysenzeiten (ms-Bereich) und selektive Detektierbarkeit unterschiedlicher chemischer Substanzklassen bei Umgebungsdruck aus. Für die Bestimmungen dieser Substanzen wurden die IMS mit radioaktiven Strahlungsquellen (63Ni-IMS) und Teilentladungs-Ionenquellen (TE-IMS) ausgestattet und ihre analytischen Güteziffern ermittelt.Durch Kopplung der TE-Ionisierungsquelle mit einem Atmosphärendruck-Ionisierungs-Quadrupol-Massenspektrometer gelang es, einen Einblick in die im TE-IMS ablaufenden Reaktionen zu geben und die generierten Reaktant- sowie Analyt-Ionen chlorierter und fluorierter Kohlenstoffe zu charakterisieren.

Free-energy barrier of filling a spherical cavity in the presence of line tension: Implication to the energy barrier between the Cassie and Wenzel state on a superhydrophobic surface with spherical cavities

Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Soft Condensed Matter (cond-mat.soft)

description: The free-energy barrier of filling a spherical cavity having an inner wall of various wettabiities is studied. The morphology and free energy of a lens-shaped droplet are determined from the minimum of the free energy. The effect of line tension on the free energy is also studied. Then, the equilibrium contact angle of the droplet is determined from the generalized Young's equation. By increasing the droplet volume within the spherical cavity, the droplet morphology changes from spherical with an equilibrium contact angle of $180^{\circ}$ to a lens with a convex meniscus, where the morphological complete drying transition occurs. By further increasing the droplet volume, the meniscus changes from convex to concave. Then, the lens-shaped droplet with concave meniscus spreads over the whole inner wall resulting in an equilibrium contact angle of $0^{\circ}$ to leave a spherical bubble, where the morphological complete wetting transition occurs. Finally, the whole cavity is filled with liquid. The free energy shows a barrier from complete drying to complete wetting as a function of droplet volume, which corresponds to the energy barrier between the Cassie and Wenzel state of the superhydrophobic surface with spherical cavities. The free-energy maximum occurs when the meniscus of the droplet becomes flat and it is given by an analytic formula. The effect of line tension is expressed by the scaled line tension, and this effect is largest at the free-energy maximum. The positive line tension increases the free-energy maximum, which thus, increases the stability of the Cassie superhydrophobic state, whereas the negative line tension destabilizes the superhydrophobic state.

Prevalence and factors associated with Road traffic Accident Among Drivers of Adama Town, Oromia Regional State, Ethiopia
Creators: name: Wordofa, Addis
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2017

description: Background:-Worldwide, an estimated 1.3 million people die of road traffic accident each year and as many as 50 million get injured. Current and projected trends in motorization indicated that the problem of road traffic accidents will get worse, leading to a global public health crisis. Ethiopia is one of the countries hard hit by Road Traffic Accidents; however, there is limited scientific evidence on magnitude of the problem in certain areas of the nation. Objectives:- To assess the burden of Road Traffic Accident and its determinants among drivers of Adama Town, Oromia Regional State, Ethiopia, February, 2015. Methods: - A cross-sectional study design with a stratified sampling with proportional allocation of samples was used in selecting the study subjects. A total of 374 respondents: 22 Taxi drivers, 128 Private car or Automobile drivers and 224 Bajaj drivers were selected by systematic random sampling technique. A face-to-face interview was used and the data were cleaned, coded and entered in to a computer SPSS version 21 model for analysis. Logistic regression was used to assess the association between the study variables at a statistical significance level of (p<0.05). Result:-The magnitude of road traffic accident among drivers during the 12 months period was 211(56.4%). The three major perceived causes of the most recent road traffic accident among the drivers were; 54(25.6%) problems related to the road, 49(23.2%) problems related with the drivers and 48 (22.7%) related with the vehicle. Three fourth (76.2%) of the drivers practiced at least one of the risky driving behavior in the last 12 months. Where, 32(8.5% of the drivers selfreported habit of drinking alcohol, 40(26.7%) reported habit of driving without fastening seat belt, 210(55.1%) reported communication with mobile phone while driving, and 125(33.4%) drove with a speed of > 35 km/hour in the town. On multi variable analysis drivers who had risky driving behavior, drivers who were accused by traffic police man and taxi drivers had more risk of road traffic accident than their counter parts with (AOR= 8.34, 95%CI: 4.34-16.01), (AOR = 6.55, 95%CI: 3.60-11.92), and (AOR= 4.36, 95%CI: 1.01-16.38) respectively. Conclusion and Recommendation:-The magnitude of road traffic accident was very high. Risky driving behavior was one of the independent predictor of road traffic accident among the study subjects in Adama town. The main reasons to the most recent accidents were related to human errors. Adama town transport authority should develop strategy to improve the understanding of the community on safe use roads, improve the quality of the roads and educate the drivers in the town about the effects of risky driving behavior.

description: Background: Child immunization is one of the most cost-effective public health interventions for reducing child morbidity and mortality. In order to control and eliminate the vaccine preventable diseases it is important to know the vaccination coverage and reasons for non-vaccination. Inadequate levels of immunization against childhood diseases remain a significant public health problem in resource-poor areas of the globe. Nonetheless, the reasons for incomplete vaccination and non-uptake of immunization services are vary from place to place. This study aimed at finding out the reasons for incomplete vaccination of children in 12-23 months of age in Addis Ababa, Addis Ketema Sub- city, Ethiopia. Objectives: To determine full immunization coverage and the predictors that influence the complete immunization of children among 12-23 months of age. Methods: Across-sectional community based study was conducted by using the revised 2005 WHO-EPI coverage cluster survey manual, from February 2013 to March 2013 in Addis Ketema Sub-City of Addis Ababa city administration.. A sample of 585 children between 12-23 months from 40 clusters in the sub-city were surveyed. Pre-tested structured questionnaire was used for data collection. Data were entered into computer using EPI-Info version 3.5.1 then bivariate and multivariate analysis was done using SPSS statistical software version 16. 0 Results Seventy three percent of the children in Addis Ketema sub-city were fully immunized. Occupation of the mother (AOR=0.22, 95% CI: 0.13,0.51), postnatal care follow up (PNC) (AOR=1.85, 95% CI: 1.10, 2.90) , knowledge about objective of vaccination (AOR=2.39, 95% CI: 1.01, 5.63), knowledge about start age of immunization (AOR=2.17, 95% CI: 1.26, 3.67), knowledge about number of session required to complete routine immunization (AOR=1.61, 95% CI: 1.09, 2.41), Place of delivery (AOR=2.26, 95% CI: 1.38, 3.67), were the independent predictors of full vaccination among children aged 12-23 months. Conclusions. Women with health seeking behavior were found to have their children fully immunized. And also knowledge of mother about immunization of children and socio-demographic characteristics of mother had association with full immunization of children. Significant number (3.2%) of children in this survey had not been vaccinated at all. The low full immunization coverage documented in this study among children particularly for measles vaccination during routine EPI program was found low.
Computing hyperbolic choreographies

Subjects: subject: Dynamical Systems (math.DS)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: An algorithm is presented for numerical computation of choreographies in spaces of constant negative curvature in a hyperbolic cotangent potential, extending the ideas given in a companion paper for computing choreographies in the plane in a Newtonian potential and on a sphere in a cotangent potential. Following an idea of Diacu, Pérez-Chavela and Reyes Victoria, we use stereographic projection and study the problem in the Poincaré disk. Using approximation by trigonometric polynomials and optimization methods with exact gradient and exact Hessian matrix, we find new choreographies, hyperbolic analogues of the ones presented in the companion paper. The algorithm proceeds in two phases: first BFGS quasi-Newton iteration to get close to a solution, then Newton iteration for high accuracy.

description: Over the past years, one witnesses a growing interest in flat band (FB) physics which has become a playground for exotic phenomena. In this study, we address the FB superconductivity in onedimensional stub chain. In contrast to the sawtooth chain or the creutz ladder, for a given strength of the attractive electron-electron interaction, the stub chain allows the tuning of the real space spreading of the FB eigenstates (quantum metric or QM). We study in detail the interplay between the interaction strength and the mean value of the QM \langle g \rangle on the pairings and on the superfluid weight D_s. Our calculations reveal several interesting and intriguing features. For instance, in the weak coupling regime, D_s with respect to \langle g \rangle exhibits two different types of behaviour. Despite the fact that the pairings differs drastically, D_s scales linearly with the QM only when its \langle g \rangle is large enough (small gap limit). On the other hand, when the QM is of small amplitude an unusual power law is found, more precisely D_s \propto \langle g \rangle^νwhere ν\longrightarrow 2 in the limit of large single particle gap. In addition to the numerical calculations, we have provided several analytical results which shed light on the physics in both the weak and strong coupling regime. Finally, we have addressed the impact of the thermal fluctuations on the superfluid weight.

description: A unification of dark matter and dark energy in terms of a logotropic perfect dark fluid has recently been proposed, where deviations with respect to the standard $Λ{\rm CDM}$ model are dependent on a single parameter $B$. In this paper we show that the requirement that the linear growth of cosmic structures on comoving scales larger than $8 h^{-1} \, {\rm Mpc}$ is not significantly affected with respect to the standard $Λ{\rm CDM}$ result provides the strongest constraint to date on the model ($B <6 \times 10^{-7}$), an improvement of more than three orders of magnitude over previous constraints on the value of $B$. We further show that this constraint rules out the logotropic Unified Dark Energy model as a possible solution to the small scale problems of the $Λ$CDM model, including the cusp problem of Dark Matter halos or the missing satellite problem, as well as the original version of the model where the Planck energy density was taken as one of the two parameters characterizing the logotropic dark fluid.

description: Today parasites comprise a huge proportion of living biodiversity and play a major role in shaping community structure. Given their ecological significance, parasite extinctions could result in massive cascading effects across ecosystems. It is therefore crucial that we have a way of estimating their extinction risk. Attempts to do this have often relied on information about host extinction risk, without explicitly incorporating information about the parasites. However, assuming an identical risk may be misleading. Here, we apply a novel metric to estimate the cophylogenetic extinction rate, Ec, of parasites with their hosts. This metric incorporates information about the evolutionary history of parasites and hosts that can be estimated using event-based cophylogenetic methods. To explore this metric, we investigated the use of different cophylogenetic methods to inform the Ec rate, based on the analysis of polystome parasites and their anuran hosts. We show using both parsimony- and model-based approaches that different methods can have a large effect on extinction risk estimation. Further, we demonstrate that model-based approaches offer greater potential to provide insights into cophylogenetic history and extinction risk.
Mid-upper arm circumference for diagnosis of severe acute malnutrition among infants aged 1-6 months hospitalized in East Hararghe, Ethiopia

Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2019

description: Background: Mid-upper arm circumference and weight-for-length/height are the two mostly used anthropometric indices to identify acute malnutrition in older children. However, severe acute malnutrition is only identified by the use of weight-for-length other than clinical methods in infants aged less than 6 months. Objective: To evaluate the ability of mid-upper arm circumference as an effective diagnostic tool for severe acute malnutrition (weight for length z-score of < -3) among infants aged 1-6 months. Methods: We conducted a hospital based cross-sectional study among 504 hospitalized infants aged 1-6 months from March to May, 2019. A systematic random sampling technique were used to select study participants. Anthropometric measure; weight, length and mid-upper arm circumference were taken according to the world health organization standard techniques Data was entered using EpiData version (4.4.2.1) and statistical software (Stata v 15.1) was employed for data cleaning and analysis. Receiver operating characteristic analysis was used to test the discriminatory performance of mid-upper arm circumference. Sensitivity, specificity and Youden index (sensitivity+specificity-1) were calculated for mid-upper arm circumference cut-offs against the presence of severe acute malnutrition (weight for length z-score < -3). The cut-off point with the highest Youden index was obtained as the possible optimal cut off point to diagnoses severe acute malnutrition. Results: The median age of the infants was 100 days with interquartile range of 76 days. The mean and SD of weight, length, mid upper arm circumference and weight-for-length z-score was 5.02 ± 1.29 kg, 58.41 ± 5.26cm, 11.51 ± 1.89 cm and -1.14 ± 2.08, respectively. Using Receiver operating characteristics curve, MUAC had a good diagnostic performance with area under the curve 0.861, (95% CI: 0.826, 0.890). Using Youden index, the possible optimal MUAC cut-off point to identify SAM was ≤11.2cm with sensitivity of 85.1%, specificity of 76.0%, PPV of 49.4% and NPV of 94.9%. Conclusion: Among infants under 6 months, mid upper arm circumference (MUAC) had a good performance in detecting severe acute malnutrition. We recommend the validation of our result before using to other contexts. Furthermore, more research is needed to evaluate the performance of MUAC for detection of acute malnutrition at community level and evaluate performance of MUAC for prediction of mortality.

description: MuseIT aims to co-design, develop, and co-evaluate a multisensory, user-centred platform for enriched engagement with cultural assets with inclusion and equal opportunity for all as core principles. Dataverse data repository will be used as shared data repository for all MuseIT working packages where different data collections will be integrated together. There are various use cases to archive cultural heritage materials, organise and structure metadata, data, ontologies, integrate data streams from sensors and VR devices. Metadata from different modalities should be integrated without changing their ownerships and include different modalities such as papers, news, articles, comments, images, video, audio and lyrics. MuseIT has a plan to apply AI/ML for metadata enrichment and linkage, and enabling integration of its content with shared controlled vocabularies in order to deliver this information in the knowledge graph.

Subjects: subject: 510

description: Innerhalb der Mathematikdidaktik haben sich seit geraumer Zeit bestimmte Grundüberzeugungen dazu herausgestellt, wie Kinder Mathematik lernen. Dazu gehört die Sicht auf das Kind als Konstrukteur seines Wissens, das sich die Lerninhalte aktiv-entdeckend aneignet, genau so wie die Auffassung vom Lernen als eine soziokulturell geprägte Tätigkeit. Aus diesen beiden grundlegenden Überzeugzungen leiten sich Vorstellungen von einer veränderten Unterrichtskultur ab, die sich beispielsweise auf die Lehrerrolle, auf den Umgang mit Fehlern und auch auf die im Unterricht praktizierte Aufgabenkultur beziehen. Wenn diese drei Grundfesten mathematischer Bildungsprozesse berücksichtigt werden, ist wohl immer guter Mathematikunterricht möglich. Mit der Jahrgangsmischung soll an diesen Grundfesten nicht gerüttelt werden, vielmehr tritt sie als schulisches Merkmal hinzu. Sie bildet quasi eine besondere Hintergrundfolie für die in der Schule stattfindenden Lernprozesse. Mit meiner Untersuchung gehe ich daher nicht der Frage nach, ob und inwiefern Kinder in der Jahrgangsmischung besser als in herkömmlichen homogenen Klassenverbänden Mathematik lernen können. Stattdessen richte ich den Blick darauf, welche besonderen Chancen sich in einer jahrgangsgemischten Zusammensetzung im Hinblick auf das Lernen von Mathematik ergeben können.

description: We calculate all neutral vector two-point functions in Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) to two-loop order and use these to estimate the ratio of disconnected to connected contributions as well as contributions involving the strange quark. We extend the ratio of $-1/10$ derived earlier in two flavour ChPT at one-loop order to a large part of the higher order contributions and discuss corrections to it. Our final estimate of the ratio disconnected to connected is negative and a few % in magnitude.

description: This paper is concerned with existence results for the singular $p$-biharmonic problem involving the Hardy potential and the critical Hardy-Sobolev exponent. More precisely, by using variational methods combined with the Mountain pass theorem and the Ekeland variational principle, we establish the existence and multiplicity of solutions. To illustrate the usefulness of our results, an illustrative example is also presented.
Spectroscopy Made Easy: Evolution

description: Context. The Spectroscopy Made Easy (SME) package has become a popular tool for analyzing stellar spectra, often in connection with large surveys or exoplanet research. SME has evolved significantly since it was first described in 1996, but many of the original caveats and potholes still haunt users. The main drivers for this paper are complexity of the modeling task, the large user community, and the massive effort that has gone into SME. Aims. We do not intend to give a comprehensive introduction to stellar atmospheres, but will describe changes to key components of SME: the equation of state, opacities, and radiative transfer. We will describe the analysis and fitting procedure and investigate various error sources that affect inferred parameters. Methods. We review the current status of SME, emphasizing new algorithms and methods. We describe some best practices for using the package, based on lessons learned over two decades of SME usage. We present a new way to assess uncertainties in derived stellar parameters. Results. Improvements made to SME, better line data, and new model atmospheres yield more realistic stellar spectra, but in many cases systematic errors still dominate over measurement uncertainty. Future enhancements are outlined.

description: Nonlinear tracking control enabling a dynamical system to track a desired trajectory is fundamental to robotics, serving a wide range of civil and defense applications. In control engineering, designing tracking control requires complete knowledge of the system model and equations. We develop a model-free, machine-learning framework to control a two-arm robotic manipulator using only partially observed states, where the controller is realized by reservoir computing. Stochastic input is exploited for training, which consists of the observed partial state vector as the first and its immediate future as the second component so that the neural machine regards the latter as the future state of the former. In the testing (deployment) phase, the immediate-future component is replaced by the desired observational vector from the reference trajectory. We demonstrate the effectiveness of the control framework using a variety of periodic and chaotic signals, and establish its robustness against measurement noise, disturbances, and uncertainties.

A Randomized Community Trial of Three Alternative Oral Rehydration Therapies in Sululta District, Addis Ababa Administrative Region
Creators: name: Kassaye, Mesfin
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 1992

description: This is a randomized community trial which was carried out to compare the relative effectiveness of three modes of ORT in under- 5 children with acute diarrhea; to identify the factors associated with compliance and to assess mother's perception of ORTS. The three ORTS were GORS(n=98), prepacked CBORS (n=90), and home made CBORT (n=103). These alternative ORT therapies were compared in terms of mean weight gain and frequency and duration of diarrhea. The CBORT group was equal to or better than the GORS or CBORS in terms of mean weight gain at 24, 48, 72, and 96 hrs following the onset of treatment. The mean frequency and duration of diarrhea were significantly higher in the GORS group. Increased feeding frequency was associated significantly with higher mean weight gain. Mothers' compliance and child acceptability were higher in CBORT when compared to GORS children and similar to the CBORS children. Mothers' perceptions of ORT as "food and medicine" was found to be an important factor associated positively with caretakers' ORT compliance and child weight gain. This study suggests that beliefs of causation might influence mothers' compliance. It is concluded that home-made CBORT is as effective as GORS or CBORS and more acceptable in the treatment of ACD. The implementation of well monitored, community based CBORT programs in Ethiopia are recommended.
Charge fluctuations and nodeless superconductivity in quasi-one-dimensional Ta$_{4}$Pd$_{3}$Te$_{16}$ revealed by $^{125}$Te-NMR and $^{181}$Ta-NQR

description: We report $^{125}$Te nuclear magnetic resonance and $^{181}$Ta nuclear quadrupole resonance studies on single-crystal Ta$_{4}$Pd$_{3}$Te$_{16}$, which has a quasi-one-dimensional structure and superconducts below $T_{\rm c}=4.3$ K. $^{181}$Ta with spin $I=7/2$ is sensitive to quadrupole interactions, while $^{125}$Te with spin $I=1/2$ can only relax by magnetic interactions. By comparing the spin-lattice relaxation rate ( $1/T_{1}$) of $^{181}$Ta and $^{125}$Te, we found that electric-field-gradient (EFG) fluctuations develop below $80$ K. The EFG fluctuations are enhanced with decreasing temperature due to the fluctuations of a charge density wave that sets in at $T_{\rm CDW}=20$ K, below which the spectra are broadened and $1/T_{1}T$ drops sharply. In the superconducting state, $1/T_{1}$ shows a Hebel-Slichter coherence peak just below $T_{\rm c}$ for $^{125}$Te, indicating that Ta$_{4}$Pd$_{3}$Te$_{16}$ is a full-gap superconductor without nodes in the gap function. The coherence peak is absent in the $1/T_{1}$ of $^{181}$Ta due to the strong EFG fluctuations.
