description: In recent years there has been growing interest in verifying the horizon-scale homogeneity of the Universe that follows from applying the Copernican Principle to the observed isotropy. This program has been stimulated by the discovery that a very large void, centred near us, can explain supernova luminosity distance measurements without dark energy. It is crucial to confront such models with as wide a variety of data as possible. With this application in mind, I develop the relativistic theory of linear scalar perturbations on spherically symmetric dust (Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi) spacetimes, using the covariant 1 + 1 + 2 formalism. I show that the evolution of perturbations is determined by a small set of new linear transfer functions. If decaying modes are ignored (to be consistent with the standard inflationary paradigm), the standard techniques of perturbation theory on homogeneous backgrounds, such as harmonic expansion, can be applied, and results closely paralleling those of familiar cosmological perturbation theory can be obtained.

description: We use large N duality to study brane/anti-brane configurations on a class of Calabi-Yau manifolds. With only branes present, the Calabi-Yau manifolds in question give rise to N=2 ADE quiver theories deformed by superpotential terms. We show that the large N duality conjecture of hep-th/0610249 reproduces correctly the known qualitative features of the brane/anti-brane physics. In the supersymmetric case, the gauge theories have Seiberg dualities which are represented as flops in the geometry. Moreover, the holographic dual geometry encodes the whole RG flow of the gauge theory. In the non-supersymmetric case, the large N duality predicts that the brane/anti-brane theories also enjoy such dualities, and allows one to pick out the good description at a given energy scale.

description: Topological error correction provides an effective method to correct errors in quantum computation. It allows quantum computation to be implemented with higher error threshold and high tolerating loss rates. We present a topological a error correction scheme with continuous variables based on an eight-partite Gaussian cluster state. We show that topological quantum correlation between two modes can be protected against a single quadrature phase displacement error occurring on any mode and some of two errors occurring on two modes. More interestingly, some cases of errors occurring on three modes can also be recognised and corrected, which is different from the topological error correction with discrete variables. We show that the final error rate after correction can be further reduced if the modes are subjected to identical errors occurring on all modes with equal probability. The presented results provide a feasible scheme for topological error correction with continuous variables and it can be experimentally demonstrated with a Gaussian cluster state.

description: ESA's INTEGRAL space mission has achieved unique results for solar and terrestrial physics, although spacecraft operations nominally excluded the possibility to point at the Sun or the Earth. The Earth avoidance was, however, exceptionally relaxed for special occultation observations of the Cosmic X-ray Background (CXB), which on some occasions allowed the detection of strong X-ray auroral emission. In addition, the most intense solar flares can be bright enough to be detectable from outside the field of view of the main instruments. This article presents for the first time the auroral observations by INTEGRAL and reviews earlier studies of the most intense solar flares. We end by briefly summarising the studies of the Earth's radiation belts, which can be considered as another topic of serendipitous science with INTEGRAL.

description: The iris biometric recognition process is one of the most consistent biometric technology among others that are currently available. However, its efficiency and accuracy can be affected by low-quality iris images used as input to a recognition system, thus, the global performance is decreased. In this context, this paper proposes an evaluation study to determine the impact of the iris image quality on the iris biometric system performance, using the key metrics presented in the ISO/IEC 29794-6:2015 standard. The experimental tests are performed using an iris image database and the OSIRIS biometric recognition software, both of them widely accepted and referenced in the latest research. Experimental results show the interval values of each quality metric and the number of images that accomplish the minimum required values. The performance of the biometric system is assessed by True-Match (TM) and False Non-Match (FNM) parameters; thus, it was possible to identify that the higher the level of image quality, the smaller the FNM value; therefore, the system performance is improved.

This approach yields a double bracket structure in phase space which generates kinetic equations representing coadjoint motion under canonical transformations. The Vlasov example admits measure-valued single-particle solutions. Such solutions are reversible; and the total entropy is a Casimir, and thus is preserved.

description: Consider polynomials over ${\rm GF}(2)$. We describe efficient algorithms for finding trinomials with large irreducible (and possibly primitive) factors, and give examples of trinomials having a primitive factor of degree $r$ for all Mersenne exponents $r = \pm 3 \bmod 8$ in the range $5 < r < 10^7$, although there is no irreducible trinomial of degree $r$. We also give trinomials with a primitive factor of degree $r = 2^k$ for $3 \le k \le 12$. These trinomials enable efficient representations of the finite field ${\rm GF}(2^r)$. We show how trinomials with large primitive factors can be used efficiently in applications where primitive trinomials would normally be used.

description: We present results from neutral atomic hydrogen (HI) observations of Hydra I, the first cluster observed by the Widefield ASKAP L-band Legacy All-sky Blind Survey (WALLABY) on the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder. For the first time we show that WALLABY can reach its final survey sensitivity. Leveraging the sensitivity, spatial resolution and wide field of view of WALLABY, we identify a galaxy, ESO 501-G075, that lies near the virial radius of Hydra I and displays an HI tail. ESO 501-G075 shows a similar level of morphological asymmetry as another cluster member, which lies near the cluster centre and shows signs of experiencing ram pressure. We investigate possible environmental processes that could be responsible for producing the observed disturbance in the HI morphology of ESO 501-G075. We rule out tidal interactions, as ESO 501-G075 has no nearby neighbours within $\sim0.34$Mpc. We use a simple model to determine that ram pressure can remove gas from the disc at radii $r\gtrsim25$kpc. We conclude that, as ESO 501-G075 has a typical HI mass compared to similar galaxies in the field and its morphology is compatible with a ram pressure scenario, ESO 501-G075 is likely recently infalling into the cluster and in the early stages of experiencing ram pressure.

description: Exotic electronic states are realized in novel quantum materials. This field is revolutionized by the topological classification of materials. Such compounds necessarily host unique states on their boundaries. Scanning tunneling microscopy studies of these surface states have provided a wealth of spectroscopic characterization, with the successful cooperation of ab initio calculations. The method of quasiparticle interference imaging proves to be particularly useful for probing the dispersion relation of the surface bands. Herein, how a variety of additional fundamental electronic properties can be probed via this method is reviewed. It is demonstrated how quasiparticle interference measurements entail mesoscopic size quantization and the electronic phase coherence in semiconducting nanowires; helical spin protection and energy-momentum fluctuations in a topological insulator; and the structure of the Bloch wave function and the relative insusceptibility of topological electronic states to surface potential in a topological Weyl semimetal.

description: We consider Rashba spin-orbit effects on spin transport driven by an electric field in semiconductor quantum wells. We derive spin diffusion equations that are valid when the mean free path and the Rashba spin-orbit interaction vary on length scales larger than the mean free path in the weak spin-orbit coupling limit. From these general diffusion equations, we derive boundary conditions between regions of different spin-orbit couplings. We show that spin injection is feasible when the electric field is perpendicular to the boundary between two regions. When the electric field is parallel to the boundary, spin injection only occurs when the mean free path changes within the boundary, in agreement with the recent work by Tserkovnyak et al. [cond-mat/0610190].

description: In the electron doped compounds SrFe_(2-x)Co_xAs_2 superconductivity with T_c up to 20 K is observed for 0.2 < x < 0.4. Results of structure determination, magnetic susceptibility, electrical resistivity, and specific heat are reported. The observation of bulk superconductivity in all thermodynamic properties -- despite strong disorder in the Fe-As layer -- favors an itinerant picture in contrast to the cuprates and renders a p- or d-wave scenario unlikely. DFT calculations find that the substitution of Fe by Co (x > 0.3) leads to the suppression of the magnetic ordering present in SrFe_2As_2 due to a rigid down-shift of the Fe-3d_(x^2-y^2) related band edge in the density of states.

description: Modern tillers are equipped with passive working tools with ripper tines in the front rows and lancet tines in the rear rows. Despite all the improvements made in the last few decades, passive working tools with lancet tines have one common disadvantage - they cannot be mounted on the frame of the implements in one row with overlapping. Meanwhile, single-row arrangement of passive working tools with lancet tines is essential in providing compactness and maneuverability of tillers, reducing their overall dimensions and reach length, the way of working tools burial and embedding and, ultimately, reducing the size of rotary strips.

Moreover, we exhibit a family of cohomologically rigid solvable Lie superalgebras with nilradical the model nilpotent Lie superalgebra of generic characteristic sequence. Both cases correspond to solvable Lie superalgebras of maximal dimension for a given nilradical. Contrariwise, we will show that the family of Lie superalgebras $SL^{n,m}$ can be deformed if defined over a field of odd characteristic.

description: We explore and compare the performances of two nonlinear correction and scale-dependent biasing models for the extraction of cosmological information from galaxy power spectrum data, especially in the context of beyond-LCDM cosmologies. The first model is the well known Q model, first applied in the analysis of 2dFGRS data. The second, the P model, is inspired by the halo model, in which nonlinear evolution and scale-dependent biasing are encapsulated in a single non-Poisson shot noise term. We find that while both models perform equally well in providing adequate correction for a range of galaxy clustering data in standard LCDM cosmology and in extensions with massive neutrinos, the Q model can give unphysical results in cosmologies containing a subdominant free-streaming dark matter whose temperature depends on the particle mass, e.g., relic thermal axions, unless a suitable prior is imposed on the correction parameter. This last case also exposes the danger of analytic marginalisation, a technique sometimes used in the marginalisation of nuisance parameters. In contrast, the P model suffers no undesirable effects, and is the recommended nonlinear correction model also because of its physical transparency.

description: Recent spectropolarimetric observations of Herbig AeBe stellar systems show linear polarization variability with wavelength and epoch near their obscured H-alpha emission. Surprisingly, this polarization is not coincident with the H-alpha emission peak but is variable near the absorptive part of the line profile. With a new and novel model we show here that this is evidence of optical pumping - anisotropy of the incident radiation that leads to a linear polarization-dependent optical depth within the intervening hydrogen wind or disk cloud. This effect can yield a larger polarization signal than scattering polarization in these systems.

description: We have searched for weak fast radio burst (FRB) events using a database containing 568,736,756 transient events detected using the Parkes radio telescope between 1997 and 2001. In order to classify these pulses, and to identify likely FRB candidates, we used a machine learning algorithm based on ResNet. We identified 81 new candidate FRBs and provide details of their positions, event times, and dispersion measures. These events were detected in only one beam of the Parkes multibeam receiver. We used a relatively low S/N cutoff threshold when selecting these bursts and some have dispersion measures only slightly exceeding the expected Galactic contribution. We therefore present these candidate FRBs as a guide for follow-up observations in the search for repeating FRBs.

The outcomes of three marriage preparation programs
Creators: name: Lees, Robert Frederick
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The outcomes of marriage preparation on three variables, a) willingness to seek help with marriage, b) attitude towards the church and c) relationship beliefs were investigated in a field setting. Decisions regarding outcomes were made by juxtaposing findings from a recurrent institutional cycle design, and the pre-posttest design. In addition, post-program interviews were employed to determine the impact of the programs. The sample consisted of 288 participants, with 96 in each of three well established, regularly offered marriage preparation programs (Anglican, Roman Catholic and Couples' Workshop). Pre-posttest measures were collected on 48 subjects in each program, and then on 48 of their cohorts at the next offering of the program. There were no differences found between the three leadership conditions within each program. Statistical results indicated a significant effect for the entire sample after marriage preparation on the Willingness To Seek Help With Marriage and Relationship Beliefs Inventories. There were no significant differences on the Attitude Towards the Church Inventory. Changes in willingness to seek help with marriage and relationship beliefs were found in the Couples' Workshop sample, but not in the Roman Catholic or Anglican samples. Differential comparison indicated statistically significant differences between participants in the Couples' Workshop and the other two programs on measures of willingness to seek help with marriage and relationship beliefs. Qualitative reports based on 30 post-program interviews pointed to the importance of experiential and skill training methods in explaining the measured differences between the programs.

description: A pair of complementary algorithms are presented. One of the pair is a fast method for connecting graphs with an edge. The other is a fast method for removing edges from a graph. Both algorithms employ the same tree based graph representation and so, in concert, can arbitrarily modify any graph. Since the clusters of a percolation model may be described as simple connected graphs, an efficient Monte Carlo scheme can be constructed that uses the algorithms to sweep the occupation probability back and forth between two turning points. This approach concentrates computational sampling time within a region of interest. A high precision value of pc = 0.59274603(9) was thus obtained, by Mersenne twister, for the two dimensional square site percolation threshold.

description: Quantum communications is the art of exchanging and manipulating information beyond the capabilities of the conventional technologies using the laws of quantum mechanics. With applications ranging from quantum computing to cryptographic systems with information-theoretic security, there is strong incentive to introduce quantum communications into many areas of the society. However, an important challenge is to develop viable technologies meeting the stringent requirements of low noise and high coherence for quantum state encoding, of high bit rate and low power for the integration with classical communication networks, and of scalable and low-cost production for a practical wide-deployment. This tutorial presents recent advances in laser modulation technologies that have enabled the development of efficient and versatile light sources for quantum communications, with a particular focus on quantum key distribution (QKD). Such approaches have been successfully used to demonstrate several QKD protocols with state-of-the-art performance. The applications and experimental results are reviewed and interpreted in the light of a complete theoretical background, allowing the reader to model and simulate such sources.

Variable accretion and emission from the stellar winds in the Galactic centre

description: We present numerical simulations of stellar wind dynamics in the central parsec of the Galactic centre, studying in particular the accretion of gas on to Sgr A*, the super-massive black hole. Unlike our previous work, here we use state-of-the-art observational data on orbits and wind properties of individual wind-producing stars. Since wind velocities were revised upwards and non-zero eccentricities were considered, our new simulations show fewer clumps of cold gas and no conspicuous disc-like structure. The accretion rate is dominated by a few close `slow wind stars' v_w < 750 km/s, and is consistent with the Bondi estimate, but variable on time-scales of tens to hundreds of years. This variability is due to the stochastic in-fall of cold clumps of gas, as in earlier simulations, and to the eccentric orbits of stars. The present models fail to explain the high luminosity of Sgr A* a few hundred years ago implied by Integral observations, but we argue that the accretion of a cold clump with a small impact parameter could have caused it. Finally, we show the possibility of constraining the total mass-loss rate of the `slow wind stars' using near infra-red observations of gas in the central few arcseconds.

Connection and completion : configurations of change

description: This thesis attempts to construct a conceptual map for thinking about family therapy in a recursive way. The axes used for this map are 1) the Taoist philosophy of change in the Chinese classic I Ching, and 2) the cybernetic epistemology of Gregory Bateson. Each is used to help explicate the other. The relational character of patterned change in the I Ching is explored in depth from five different perspectives. The first discusses the elusive and paradoxical subject of the Tao, the meta-pattern which interweaves stability and change, and connects all living systems in a dynamic recursive balance. The Tao is process, the context of all change, and is closely related to Bateson's notion of immanent Mind. The second perspective examines the nature of the relationship between yin and yang, the complementary opposites that are both distinct (separate) and mutually dependent (connected). The relation between connection and separation is the basis of the recursive balance of life and death, and is an important theme in therapy. The third perspective presents a model for the understanding of gradual development and sudden transformation as part of a cyclic process of completion. Like a plant going to seed, the maturation of a situation or relationship heralds both death and renewal. But such completion is only possible when there is a flowing connection between parts of the system. The counsellor uses various techniques for helping the family connect in ways which allow old patterns to disperse and new ones to emerge. There are some indications that the authors of the I Ching were directly influenced by the Chinese philosophy of music. The fourth perspective discusses this possibility in some depth and then turns to modern jazz theory as a means of characterizing the relationship between family and therapist, and of explaining the way change is introduced into the therapeutic system. The fifth perspective explains the nature of the I Ching's curious diagrams of change known as "hexagrams." Based on the relation between yin and yang, and illustrated with mantic, philosophical, and poetic phrases, hexagrams, in both structure and image, are metaphoric expressions of process and connection. The thesis concludes with a case-history of a dysfunctional family and a description of their changes In terms of the principles outlined in the previous chapters.

description: Não foi por acaso que Pessoa, na mesma carta de 1935 em que conta a história triunfalizante do aparecimento nele de Alberto Caeiro, em Março de 1914, explica que um “vago retrato” do heterónimo Ricardo Reis lhe surgiu já dois anos antes, “aí por 1912”, altura em que esboçara “uns poemas de índole pagã”, em “verso irregular”. Foi, na verdade, um pouco mais cedo, por volta de 1910, que Pessoa começou a escrever poemas de temática pagã, escritos em versos métrica e rimaticamente irregulares. Analisando essa matéria e confrontando-a com os primeiros poemas de Caeiro e de Reis, demonstro que era a matriz comum dos dois heterónimos que, nas suas origens, eram intimamente ligados. Um documento prefacial enigmaticamente datado de 1/2/1914 e redigido por volta de 1915 sugere-nos, aliás, que Pessoa pensava atribuir, já nessa altura, um “dia triunfal” a Ricardo Reis. Traçando toda a evolução do poeta classicista, tento provar que este, mais do que Caeiro ou Álvaro de Campos, era a expressão máxima de liberdade, segundo o conceito do termo defendido por Pessoa. Este era o triunfo maior de Ricardo Reis.

description: Cyber-physical systems (CPS) are assemblies of networked, heterogeneous, hardware, and software components sensing, evaluating, and actuating a physical environment. This heterogeneity induces complexity that makes CPSs challenging to model correctly. Since CPSs often have critical functions, it is however of utmost importance to formally verify them in order to provide the highest guarantees of safety. Faced with CPS complexity, model abstraction becomes paramount to make verification attainable. To this end, assume/guarantee contracts enable component model abstraction to support a sound, structured, and modular verification process. While abstractions of models by contracts are usually proved sound, none of the related contract frameworks themselves have, to the best of our knowledge, been formally proved correct so far. In this aim, we present the formalization of a generic assume/guarantee contract theory in the proof assistant Coq. We identify and prove theorems that ensure its correctness. Our theory is generic, or parametric, in that it can be instantiated and used with any given logic, in particular hybrid logics, in which highly complex cyber-physical systems can uniformly be described.

description: A simple, analytical, nonrelativistic ionization rate formula for atoms and positive ions in intense ultraviolet and x-ray electromagnetic fields is derived. The rate is valid at arbitrary values of the Keldysh parameter and confirmed by results from ab initio numerical solutions of the single active electron, time-dependent Schroedinger equation. The proposed rate is particularly relevant for experiments employing the new free electron laser (FEL) sources under construction worldwide.
