description: We study D-branes and Ramond-Ramond fields on global orbifolds of Type II string theory with vanishing H-flux using methods of equivariant K-theory and K-homology. We illustrate how Bredon equivariant cohomology naturally realizes stringy orbifold cohomology. We emphasize its role as the correct cohomological tool which captures known features of the low-energy effective field theory, and which provides new consistency conditions for fractional D-branes and Ramond-Ramond fields on orbifolds. We use an equivariant Chern character from equivariant K-theory to Bredon cohomology to define new Ramond-Ramond couplings of D-branes which generalize previous examples. We propose a definition for groups of differential characters associated to equivariant K-theory. We derive a Dirac quantization rule for Ramond-Ramond fluxes, and study flat Ramond-Ramond potentials on orbifolds.

description: We present a conjecture for the $n$-gluon one-loop amplitudes with maximal helicity violation. The conjecture emerges from the powerful requirement that the amplitudes have the correct behavior in the collinear limits of external momenta. One implication is that the corresponding amplitudes where three or more gluon legs are replaced by photons vanish for $n>4$.

One Region, Four Movements: Constructing Cascadia through Rhetoric
Creators: name: Thatcher  Montgomery
Publisher: name: Carnegie Mellon University

Subjects: subject: 200508 Other Literatures in English
subject: FOS: Languages and literature

description: Through traditional rhetorical analysis, this thesis examines arguments made for a ―Cascadia‖ regional identity (roughly located around Washington, Oregon, and British Columbia) made by four strands of Cascadian thought: Cascadia as a bioregion, as a nation, as a culture, and as an economic region. From each concept, two texts are analyzed to find the audience being targeted and the arguments being made. Examining how each Cascadia attempts to define itself and draw members—often by contrasting or coordinating with the other versions—shows some similarities, like pride in the natural environment, as well as clear distinctions, like differing opinions as to the boundaries of the region itself. The separate notions of Cascadia come with their own sets of values, and by looking at an overview of the arguments being made, this thesis provides insights into Cascadia specifically as well as regional identities in general.

Planar screening by charge polydisperse counterions

description: We study how a neutralising cloud of counterions screens the electric field of a uniformly charged planar membrane plate, when the counterions are characterised by a distribution of charges (or valence), $n(q)$. We work out analytically the one-plate and two-plate cases, at the level of non-linear Poisson-Boltzmann theory. The (essentially asymptotic) predictions are successfully compared to numerical solutions of the full Poisson-Boltzmann theory, but also to Monte Carlo simulations. The counterions with smallest valence control the long-distance features of interactions, and may qualitatively change the results pertaining to the classic monodisperse case where all counterions have the same charge. Emphasis is put on continuous distributions $n(q)$, for which new power-laws can be evidenced, be it for the ionic density or the pressure, in the one- and two-plates situations respectively. We show that for discrete distributions, more relevant for experiments, these scaling laws persist in an intermediate but yet observable range. Furthermore, it appears that from a practical point of view, hallmarks of the continuous $n(q)$ behaviour is already featured by discrete mixtures with a relatively small number of constituents.

description: The structure of loop corrections is examined in a scalar field theory on a three dimensional space whose spatial coordinates are noncommutative and satisfy SU(2) Lie algebra. In particular, the 2- and 4-point functions in $ϕ^4$ scalar theory are calculated at the 1-loop order. The theory is UV-finite as the momentum space is compact. It is shown that the non-planar corrections are proportional to a one dimensional $δ$-function, rather than a three dimensional one, so that in transition rates only the planar corrections contribute.

description: We consider a financial contract that delivers a single cash flow given by the terminal value of a cumulative gains process. The problem of modelling and pricing such an asset and associated derivatives is important, for example, in the determination of optimal insurance claims reserve policies, and in the pricing of reinsurance contracts. In the insurance setting, the aggregate claims play the role of the cumulative gains, and the terminal cash flow represents the totality of the claims payable for the given accounting period. A similar example arises when we consider the accumulation of losses in a credit portfolio, and value a contract that pays an amount equal to the totality of the losses over a given time interval. An explicit expression for the value process is obtained. The price of an Arrow-Debreu security on the cumulative gains process is determined, and is used to obtain a closed-form expression for the price of a European-style option on the value of the asset. The results obtained make use of various remarkable properties of the gamma bridge process, and are applicable to a wide variety of financial products based on cumulative gains processes such as aggregate claims, credit portfolio losses, defined-benefit pension schemes, emissions, and rainfall.

Language and Jamaican Literature
Creators: name: Pollard, Velma
Publisher: name: Altre Modernità
Year: 2019

description: Disrespected literatures are written in disrespected languages. Languages are usually disrespected when the status of the people who speak them is low. In postplantation societies the respected language is the European language brought by the people who colonised the country. The disrespected language is usually a creole born in the plantation environment where overseers speaking European languages and enslaved people speaking West African languages were forced to interact. In Jamaica the respected official language is English and the disrespected popular language is Jamaica Creole. The languages are lexically related and so give the impression of being closer than they are. In fact, Jamaican Creole is still regarded as “broken English” by people who have not paid attention to the linguistic analyses which indicate a strong structural relationship to certain West African languages. These two languages, the official and the popular have accommodated each other in the Jamaican environment with speaker and situation determining use. A fascinating feature of this accommodation is the ability of the individual to switch from one language to the other within the same speech event. This paper hopes to illustrate how I and other Jamaican writers have infused the formal/official language in which most of us write, with the popular language and so have enriched the fabric that is the language in which Jamaican literature is written. Disrespected Literatures are written in Disrespected Languages. I am from Jamaica where the official language is Jamaican English, a respected language, and the popular language is Jamaican Creole, commonly called Patwa, the disrespected language. Disrespected languages are hardly given the status of “language” except by linguists. They are called dialects or they are described as broken versions of respected languages to which they are usually related lexically. So some people describe the Jamaican popular language as “broken English”. I have said elsewhere that if that is what it is, it is broken into many very small pieces. The truth is that languages gain status from their speakers. An eminent linguist (Max Weinreich) quoting an unnamed friend, remarked that a language is a dialect with an army and a navy. Jamaican Creole, Patwa, even if it used the salaries of all its speakers could hardly sustain an army and a navy.

Extended-Source Effect and Chromaticity in Two-Point-Mass Microlensing

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We explore the sensitivity of two-point-mass gravitational microlensing to the extended nature of the source star, as well as the related sensitivity to its limb darkening. We demonstrate that the sensitive region, usually considered to be limited to a source-diameter-wide band along the caustic, is strongly expanded near cusps, most prominently along their outer axis. In the case of multi-component caustics, facing cusps may form a region with a non-negligible extended-source effect spanning the gap between them. We demonstrate that for smaller sources the size of the sensitive region extending from a cusp measured in units of source radii increases, scaling as the inverse cube root of the radius. We study the extent of different sensitivity contours and show that for a microlensed Galactic bulge giant the probability of encountering at least a 1% extended-source effect is higher than the probability of caustic crossing by 40-60% when averaged over a typical range of lens-component separations, with the actual value depending on the mass ratio of the components. We derive analytical expressions for the extended-source effect and chromaticity for a source positioned off the caustic. These formulae are more generally applicable to any gravitational lens with a sufficiently small source. Using exactly computed amplifications we test the often used linear-fold caustic approximation and show that it may lead to errors on the level of a few percent even in near-ideal caustic-crossing events. Finally, we discuss several interesting cases of observed binary and planetary microlensing events and point out the importance of our results for the measurement of stellar limb darkening from microlensing light curves.

description: We present two confirmed wide separation L-dwarf common proper motion companions to nearby stars and one candidate identified from the Two Micron All Sky Survey. Spectral types from optical spectroscopy are L0 V, L2.5 V, and L8 V. Near-infrared low resolution spectra of the companions are provided as well as a grid of known objects spanning M6 V -- T dwarfs to support spectral type assignment for these and future L-dwarfs in the z'JHK bands. Using published measurements, we estimate ages of the companions from physical properties of the primaries. These crude ages allow us to estimate companion masses using theoretical low-mass star and brown dwarf evolutionary models. The new L-dwarfs in this paper bring the number of known wide-binary (Separation >= 100 AU) L-dwarf companions of nearby stars to nine. One of the L-dwarfs is a wide separation companion to the F7 IV-V + extrasolar planet system HD89744Ab.

description: (Abridged) The nature of S Ori 70, a faint mid-T type object found towards the direction of the young sigma Orionis cluster, is still under debate. We intend to disentangle whether it is a field brown dwarf or a 3-Myr old planetary-mass member of the cluster. We report on near-infrared JHK_s and mid-infrared [3.6] and [4.5] IRAC/Spitzer photometry recently obtained for S Ori 70. The new near-infrared images (taken 3.82 yr after the discovery data) have allowed us to derive a very small proper motion (11.0 +/- 5.9 mas/yr) for this object, which is consistent with the proper motion of the cluster within 1.5 sigma the astrometric uncertainty. The colors (H-K_s), (J-K_s) and K_s-[3.6] appear discrepant when compared to T4-T7 dwarfs in the field. This behavior could be ascribed to a low-gravity atmosphere or alternatively to an atmosphere with a metallicity significantly different than solar. Taking into account the small proper motion of S Ori 70 and its new near- and mid-infrared colors, a low-gravity atmosphere remains as the most likely explanation to account for our observations. This supports S Ori 70's membership in sigma Orionis, with an estimated mass in the interval 2-7 Mjup, in agreement with our previous derivation.

Nurses as Caregivers: Identifying some Negative Aspects of Caregiving

Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: 170199 Psychology not elsewhere classified
subject: FOS: Psychology

description: Communion is a focus on others and involves helping and caring for others and being
attuned to others' feelings. By contrast, unmitigated communion is an extreme focus on
others to the neglect of the self. The goal of the present study was to explore communion
and unmitigated communion in a caregiving population where the benefits and hazards of
an orientation towards others might be observed. A total of 61 nurses, 56 of whom were
women, were interviewed for 30 minutes by phone or in person. The following traits were
measured: unmitigated communion, communion, agency, self-esteem, externalized selfperception,
feelings when help is rejected, anger, depression, and j ob distress. It was
hypothesized that unmitigated communion would be associated with low self-esteem,
externalized self perception, negative feelings about the self when others rejected help,
holding anger in, depression, j ob distress, and intrusive thoughts about patients.
Communion was not expected to be related to any of these outcomes. Results largely
confirmed these hypotheses. Unmitigated communion was related to more distress in
general, but not necessarily j ob distress. By contrast, communion was related to reduced
job distress. Both unmitigated communion and communion were related to being
distressed by intrusive thoughts about a specific patient, but only unmitigated communion
was associated with having intrusive thoughts about patients in general. Thus, communion
is associated with a concern for others, but not an involvement with others that causes
negative effects on nurses' well-being. The degree of overinvolvement and self-sacrifice
that is characteristic of unmitigated communion appears to be the root of the negative health
effects experienced by these people.

The approach is model independent and is based on an effective lagrangian parametrization. It is shown that HERA will put significant bounds on the scale of new physics, though, in general, these are more modest than previously thought. If deviations from the standard model are observed in the above processes, future colliders such as the SSC and LHC will be able to directly probe the physics responsible for these discrepancies}

description: We present a general information theoretic approach for identifying functional subgraphs in complex networks where the dynamics of each node are observable. We show that the uncertainty in the state of each node can be expressed as a sum of information quantities involving a growing number of correlated variables at other nodes. We demonstrate that each term in this sum is generated by successively conditioning mutual informations on new measured variables, in a way analogous to a discrete differential calculus. The analogy to a Taylor series suggests efficient search algorithms for determining the state of a target variable in terms of functional groups of other degrees of freedom. We apply this methodology to electrophysiological recordings of networks of cortical neurons grown it in vitro. Despite strong stochasticity, we show that each cell's patterns of firing are generally explained by the activity of a small number of other neurons. We identify these neuronal subgraphs in terms of their mutually redundant or synergetic character and reconstruct neuronal circuits that account for the state of each target cell.

description: A detailed numerical study on the phenomenon of Shock Wave focusing in air is carried out. The focusing phenomenon is achieved with the help of a shock tube and a converging section attached to it. The planar shock generated inside the shock tube is converted to spherical shock with the help of the converging section and is focused to a point. High-temperature effects like temperature-dependent Cp variation and chemical reactions corresponding to dissociated air are included in the simulation. The chemical reactions including the dissociation, recombination and ionization of nine species of air including three ions (N2, O2, N, O, NO, Ar, NO+, O+ and Ar+) are monitored throughout the simulation. The effect of driven section filling conditions such as initial pressure and temperature on focusing parameters is studied. The variation in the initial fill temperature is found to affect the flow properties much more as compared to the change in initial fill pressure, while maintaining the same shock strength. The effect of incident shock strength on shock wave focusing is also investigated. It is observed that as the strength of the shock increases, the conditions like temperature and pressure at the focusing point increases and thereby increasing the reaction rate of all the reactions.

New technologies and long-run growth

Subjects: Economics

description: Have new technologies fundamentally changed the way we look at economic growth? The neoclassical growth model, one of the most prominent growth theories of the past, states that the economy eventually reaches a steady state where per capita output remains constant. However, some economists are now starting to disagree with this claim and instead believe that a new economy is emerging in which computing power and other technologies enable the economy to grow indefinitely. One recent theory of economic growth, the AK growth model, explains how this 'new economy' functions. This project shows why the AK growth model is a more accurate representation of the economy than the neoclassical growth model and then uses a computer simulation to illustrate the differences between the two theories.

description: In this letter, we study the deterministic sampling patterns for the completion of low rank matrix, when corrupted with a sparse noise, also known as robust matrix completion. We extend the recent results on the deterministic sampling patterns in the absence of noise based on the geometric analysis on the Grassmannian manifold. A special case where each column has a certain number of noisy entries is considered, where our probabilistic analysis performs very efficiently. Furthermore, assuming that the rank of the original matrix is not given, we provide an analysis to determine if the rank of a valid completion is indeed the actual rank of the data corrupted with sparse noise by verifying some conditions.

My Body is a Barrel of Gunpowder: Palestinian Women's Suicide Bombing in the Second Intifada
Creators: name: Ebel, Meredith E.
Publisher: name: Carnegie Mellon University
Year: 2012
Subjects: History

description: The suicide‐bombing by Wafa Idris in an Israeli grocery store on January 27, 2002, killing one Israeli, created excitement in the media over the perceived new phenomenon of Palestinian female suicide bombers. Palestinian women’s political and even violent participation in the national campaign is not, however, new. In fact, Palestinian female suicide bombing falls within the continuum of women’s political participation in the Palestinian struggle against Zionism and Israel. Many scholars have put forth gendered theories to explain the emergence of Palestinian female suicide bombing. One holds that women are trying to prove their equality with men and seeking to elevate women’s place in Palestinian society. Evidence shows that even as their participation reaches the level of suicide bombing, however, the women win social praise but no structural changes in Palestinian society for the betterment of women. Another explanation is the theory of individual redemption, which argues that the Palestinian women who become involved in suicide bombing do so because they are divorced, barren, adulterers or otherwise shamed or undesirable and their patriarchal society offers no alternatives for redeeming themselves. Contrary to this popular Western and Israeli belief, however, most Palestinian female suicide bombers do not fall into any of these categories of disgrace. I argue that Palestinian society’s response to female suicide bombing and the backgrounds of the women show that, in fact, Palestinian women are not driven so much by a desire to advance women’s societal gains or individual redemption, but rather by the same nationalist motivations driving Palestinian male suicide bombers fighting against Israeli occupation and Palestinian suffering. I demonstrate the validity of my argument with an original chart in which I pull together both gendered and non‐gendered components of the female suicide bombers’ back stories. Once charted, the preponderance of possible political and nationalist catalysts is clear. Continuing to use gendered‐based theories to explain why Palestinian women become suicide bombers limits our understanding of the phenomenon and crucially hinders our thinking about how to overcome it.
The Optimal Use of Silicon Pixel Charge Information for Particle Identification

Subjects: subject: Instrumentation and Detectors (physics.ins-det)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Particle identification using the energy loss in silicon detectors is a powerful technique for probing the Standard Model (SM) as well as searching for new particles beyond the SM. Traditionally, such techniques use the truncated mean of the energy loss on multiple layers, in order to mitigate heavy tails in the charge fluctuation distribution. We show that the optimal scheme using the charge in multiple layers significantly outperforms the truncated mean. Truncation itself does not significantly degrade performance and the optimal classifier is well-approximated by a linear combination of the truncated mean and truncated variance.

Disrespected Literature and Sign Language
Creators: name: Sutton-Spence, Rachel
Publisher: name: Altre Modernità
Year: 2019

description: The study of hitherto “disrespected literature” makes us look at all language in a new way, revealing the potentialand limitationsof language, creativity and humanity. I argue that sign language literature, or , as it is called in one sign language, as an example of disrespected literature, can reveal new ways of thinking about literature, literary analysis and language, as well as highlighting the relationship between language art and the body of the language artist. I discuss the paradox that academic acceptance ofand respect forthe new literary cultural norms may compromise those norms, as canons are created, conveying institutional status and risking the cultural norms of the community that created it. Disrespected literature brings into focus the relationship between language, the body and identity. The essential corporal nature of sign language can powerfully express Embodied Political Resistance to prevailing disrespect. Thus, when we respect the sign language literature of a deaf culture, we respect the language, the body and the person.

Teleportation of two-mode squeezed states

description: We consider two-mode squeezed states which are parametrized by the squeezing parameter and the phase. We present a scheme for teleporting such entangled states of continuous variables from Alice to Bob. Our protocol is operationalized through the creation of a four-mode entangled state shared by Alice and Bob using linear amplifiers and beam splitters. Teleportation of the entangled state proceeds with local operations and the classical communication of four bits. We compute the fidelity of teleportation and find that it exhibits a trade-off with the magnitude of entanglement of the resultant teleported state.

description: We propose a quantity, ${\mathcal{A}\!\!\!/}$, as a measure describing the nonadiabaticity of a thermodynamic process. For this purpose, we use a schematic method to find the measure of the `degree of nonadiabaticity'. The method utilizes an `invariant' thermal state constructed from the Ermakov-Lewis-Riesenfeld invariant. Specifically, we study a frequency-modulated quantum harmonic oscillator as a thermodynamic system. Naturally, we write the first law of thermodynamics with ${\mathcal{A}\!\!\!/}$ as a measurable quantity. We discuss universality for the method and some possible applications.

description: WHO and endemic countries target elimination of transmission of Onchocerca volvulus, the parasite causing onchocerciasis. Population genetic analysis of O. volvulus may provide data to improve the evidence base for decisions on when, where, and for how long to deploy which interventions and post-intervention surveillance to achieve elimination. Development of necessary methods and tools requires parasites suitable for genetic analysis. Based on our experience with microfilariae obtained from different collaborators, we developed a microfilariae transfer procedure for large-scale studies in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) comparing safety and efficacy of ivermectin, the mainstay of current onchocerciasis elimination strategies, and moxidectin, a new drug. This procedure is designed to increase the percentage of microfilariae in skin snips suitable for genetic analysis, improve assignment to metadata, and minimize time and materials needed by the researchers collecting the microfilariae. Among 664 microfilariae from South Sudan, 35.7% and 39.5% failed the mitochondrial and nuclear qPCR assay. Among the 576 microfilariae from DRC, 16.0% and 16.7% failed these assays, respectively. This difference may not only be related to the microfilariae transfer procedure but also to other factors, notably the ethanol concentration in the tubes in which microfilariae were stored (64% vs. ≥75%).
Motivation in Foreign Language Learning: The Relationship between Classroom Activities, Motivation, and Outcomes in a University Language-Learning Environment

description: In the study of academic motivation in a language-learning setting, motivation has traditionally been considered an independent variable. The present study treats it as both a dependent function of classroom activities and an independent predictor of study time, expected grade, and whether a student will continue to study the language. Six distinct motivational types are discussed: motivation about the language, motivation about the class, confidence, external motivation, whether the class feels required, and self-reported motivation. Motivation about the language is found to be of particular importance in predicting outcomes, along with fun activities and activities that promote language use about students’ own lives and interests.

description: With the sensation generated by the 2002 release of The Ring, the American take on the classic Japanese horror film Ringu, a new trend in American horror was born. Shifting its attention away from more common Western themes, Hollywood focused on emulating the Japanese psychological viewpoint by shyi1ig away.from demented murderers and turning instead to vengeful ghosts and cursed apparitions. Aside from these backbone elements, however, the emergence of Japanese horror remakes highlighted another distinct, fundamental difference between the traditional American and Japanese takes on horror: the portrayal of powerful, villainous women. Why does American horror suggest contempt for such female antagonists, whereas Japanese horror conveys the opposite: fearful respect? What factors influence these portrayals? These are the questions I aim to answer.
