Strongly Coupled Quark Gluon Plasma (SCQGP)
Creators: name: Bannur, Vishnu M.

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We propose that the reason for the non-ideal behavior seen in lattice simulation of quark gluon plasma (QGP) and relativistic heavy ion collisions (URHICs) experiments is that the QGP near T_c and above is strongly coupled plasma (SCP), i.e., strongly coupled quark gluon plasma (SCQGP). It is remarkable that the widely used equation of state (EoS) of SCP in QED (quantum electrodynamics) very nicely fits lattice results on all QGP systems, with proper modifications to include color degrees of freedom and running coupling constant. Results on pressure in pure gauge, 2-flavors and 3-flavors QGP, are all can be explained by treating QGP as SCQGP as demonstated here.Energy density and speed of sound are also presented for all three systems. We further extend the model to systems with finite quark mass and a reasonably good fit to lattice results are obtained for (2+1)-flavors and 4-flavors QGP. Hence it is the first unified model, namely SCQGP, to explain the non-ideal QGP seen in lattice simulations with just two system dependent parameters.

Nikon and the sponsorship of Japan’s optical industry by the Imperial Japanese Navy, 1923-1945

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: This thesis examines the development of Japan's optical industry during the 1920s, 1930s, and through the immediate post-World War Two era, placing particular emphasis upon the support given to emergent optical firms by the Imperial Japanese Navy (IJN). The author seeks to trace IJN support for optical munitions development back to the Washington Naval Limitation Treaty of 1922 and the subsequent London Naval Treaty of 1930 - arguing that the root of Japan's early optical research and development initiatives is to be found in Japan's compensatory Naval Supplementary Bill of 1930. Faced with the limitation of both the number and size of its capital and auxiliary warships after 1930, the I JN sought to divert the remainder of its ship construction budget toward the fullest development of experimental weapons and related systems. This changing attitude toward maximizing auxiliary technologies in lieu of additional vessels gave a significant boost to such companies as Nippon Kogaku Kogyo Kabushiki Kaisha — which came to be known in the post-war era as Nikon. Through an investigation of Nikon's own company histories and the U.S. Navy Technical Mission to Japan. 1945. the operational and technical growth of companies such as Nikon , Fuji, Canon, and Minolta are examined. Critical technical advances made in the furtherance of IJN projects such as optical glass manufacturing, aerial camera design, infrared imaging, rangefinder production and periscope lens coating techniques are shown to be at the heart of Japan's optical design and manufacturing successes in the post-war occupation period. In building upon its significant wartime technical breakthroughs and mass-production processes, Nikon was able to capture post-war consumer optical markets both at home and abroad by the late 1950s. That chain of events is herein demonstrated to have originated with the emphasis placed by the IJN upon developing auxiliary and experimental weapons technologies following the London Naval Treaty o f 1930.

description: Thermal hysteresis is recognized as one of the main drawbacks for cyclical applications of magnetocaloric and ferromagnetic shape memory materials with first order transformations. As such, the challenge is to develop strategies that improve the compatibility between the phases involved in the transitions and study its influence on thermal hysteresis. With this purpose, we explore the thermal, structural and magnetic properties of the Ni2Mn1-xCuxGa0.84Al0.16 Heusler alloys. The alloys present a thermal hysteresis reduction of ~60% when the Cu content in the compound varies from x = 0.10 to x = 0.25, with a minimum hysteresis width of 6 K being achieved. We applied the geometric non-linear theory of martensite to address the phase compatibility, quantified by the parameter lambda2, the middle eigenvalue of the transformation stretch tensor, and found that the minimum of hysteresis is associated with a better crystallographic compatibility (lambda2 closer to 1) between the austenite and martensite phases. In addition, we show that the valley-like properties of hysteresis found in the Ni2Mn1-xCuxGa0.84Al0.16 compounds is present in several other alloys in the literature. These results provide new pathways to understand as well as to masters the phase compatibility and ultimately achieve a low thermal hysteresis in multifunctional Heusler alloys.

description: We present results of numerical simulations of the propagation of ultra high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) over cosmological distances, aimed at quantifying the statistical significance of the highest energy data on the spectrum and small scale anisotropies as detected by the AGASA experiment. We assess the significance of the lack of a GZK feature and its compatibility with the reported small scale anisotropies. Assuming that UHECRs are protons from extragalactic sources, we find that the small scale anisotropies are incompatible with the reported spectrum at a probability level of $2 \times 10^{-5}$. Our analysis of the AGASA results shows the power of combining spectrum and small scale anisotropy data in future high statistics experiments, such as Auger.

description: Extensive progress has been recently made into our understanding of heavy element production via the $r$-process in the Universe, specifically with the first observed neutron star binary merger (NSBM) event associated with the gravitational wave signal detected by LIGO, GW170817. The chemical abundance patterns of metal-poor $r$-process-enhanced stars provides key evidence into the dominant site(s) of the $r$-process, and whether NSBMs are sufficiently frequent or prolific $r$-process sources to be responsible for the majority of $r$-process material in the Universe. We present atmospheric stellar parameters (using a Non-Local Thermodynamic Equilibrium analysis) and abundances from a detailed analysis of 141 metal-poor stars, carried out as part of the $R$-Process Alliance (RPA) effort. We obtained high-resolution "snapshot" spectroscopy of the stars using the MIKE spectrograph on the 6.5m Magellan Clay telescope at Las Campanas Observatory in Chile. We find 10 new highly enhanced $r$-II (with [Eu/Fe] $> +1.0$), 62 new moderately enhanced $r$-I ($+0.3 < $ [Eu/Fe] $\le +1.0$) and 17 new limited-$r$ ([Eu/Fe] $< +0.3$) stars. Among those, we find 17 new carbon-enhanced metal-poor (CEMP) stars, of which five are CEMP-no. We also identify one new $s$-process-enhanced ([Ba/Eu ]$ > +0.5$), and five new $r/s$ ($0.0 < $ [Ba/Eu] $ < +0.5$) stars. In the process, we discover a new ultra metal-poor (UMP) star at [Fe/H]=$-$4.02. One of the $r$-II stars shows a deficit in $α$ and Fe-peak elements, typical of dwarf galaxy stars. Our search for $r$-process-enhanced stars by RPA efforts, has already roughly doubled the known $r$-process sample.

description: As an alternative view to the standard big bang cosmology the quasi-steady state cosmology(QSSC) argues that the universe was not created in a single great explosion; it neither had a beginning nor will it ever come to an end. The creation of new matter in the universe is a regular feature occurring through finite explosive events. Each creation event is called a mini-bang or, a mini creation event(MCE). Gravitational waves are expected to be generated due to any anisotropy present in this process of creation. Mini creation event ejecting matter in two oppositely directed jets is thus a source of gravitational waves which can in principle be detected by laser interferometric detectors. In the present work we consider the gravitational waveforms propagated by linear jets and then estimate the response of laser interferometric detectors like LIGO and LISA.

description: To meet the demands for flexible assembly technology, an aerodynamic feeding system has been developed. The system autonomously finds the optimal configuration of four parameters – two angles of inclination, nozzle pressure and component speed – using a genetic algorithm, which has been presented in earlier work. To increase the flexibility of the feeding system, an actuator was implemented, that enables the variation of the nozzle position orthogonally to the moving direction of the components. This paper investigates the effects of the more flexible flow against the components on their behavior when passing the nozzle. Additionally, the nozzle position was implemented into the genetic algorithm as a fifth parameter. Therefore, the impact of the enlargement of the solution space of the genetic algorithm due to the implementation of a fifth parameter is investigated in this paper as well.

description: We use a self-consistent method to study the distinct current-switch of $2^{'}$-amino-4-ethynylphenyl-4'-ethynylphenyl-5'-nitro-1-benzenethiol, from the first-principles calculations. The numerical results are in accord with the early experiment [Reed et al., Sci. Am. \textbf{282}, 86 (2000)]. To further investigate the transport mechanism, we calculate the switching behavior of p-terphenyl with the rotations of the middle ring as well. We also study the effect of hydrogen atom substituting one ending sulfur atom on the transport and find that the asymmetry of I-V curves appears and the switch effect still lies in both the positive and negative bias range.

The results on the experimental tests of this new optimal bound are presented in Sect. 3 for the principal meson-nucleon elastic scatterings: pion-nucleon, kaon-nucleon at all available energies. Then we have shown that the saturation of this optimal bound is observed with high accuracy practically at all available energies in meson-nucleon scattering.

description: Shock response spectrum (SRS) is a widely accepted method for shock testing specification. However, SRS, as a supremum, is over-conservative and cannot fully describe the relative severity for various shock environments. This study introduces shock response matrix, from which shock severity infimum (SSI) can be extracted using singular value decomposition method. Based on SRS and SSI, dual spectra are introduced to determine the range of shock severity between its supremum and infimum. The evaluation of the relative severity of various shock signals is discussed and validated by finite element simulations.

description: Due to their many advantages, flexible structures are increasingly being used as guide and transmission elements in handling systems. Prismatic solid-state joints with a concentrated cross-sectional reduction are predominantly used as flexure pivots for both microscopic and macroscopic designs. A transfer of these geometries to applications in cryogenic working environments is not easily possible at temperatures below -130 °C due to the changed material properties. In this paper, the further development of swivel joints as cascaded solid state joints for such a cryogenic environment is illustrated by the targeted adaptation of certain joint parameters and dimensions. By means of a comprehensive FEM simulation, it can be shown how the influence of specific parameters affects movement accuracy, process forces and shape stability and to what extent these geometric parameters influence each other in their effect.

description: In the last decade, a fundamental phenomenon came to the fore in the business environment: more and more companies are offering total solutions to their customer instead of standardized products or services. Although this trend has already been studied extensively in literature, little has been said about the impact of this phenomenon on the supplier's channel management. This article develops propositions concerning the influence of a total solutions strategy on a company's channel management, rooted on an extensive literature review and case-based research in the Belgian industrial market.

description: Hybrid plasmonic nanoemitters based on the combination of quantum dot emitters (QD) and plasmonic nanoantennas open up new perspectives in the control of light. However, precise positioning of any active medium at the nanoscale constitutes a challenge. Here, we report on the optimal overlap of antenna's near-field and active medium whose spatial distribution is controlled via a plasmon-triggered 2-photon polymerization of a photosensitive formulation containing QDs. Au nanoparticles of various geometries are considered. The response of these hybrid nano-emitters is shown to be highly sensitive to the light polarization. Different light emission states are evidenced by photoluminescence measurements. These states correspond to polarization-sensitive nanoscale overlap between the exciting local field and the active medium distribution. The decrease of the QD concentration within the monomer formulation allows trapping of a single quantum dot in the vicinity of the Au particle. The latter objects show polarization-dependent switching in the single-photon regime.
Anti-GZK effect in UHECR spectrum

Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: In this paper we discuss the anti-GZK effect that arises in the framework of the diffusive propagation of Ultra High Energy (UHE) protons. This effect consists in a jump-like increase of the maximum distance from which UHE protons can reach the observer. The position of the jump is independent of the Intergalactic Magnetic Field (IMF) strength and depends only on the energy losses of protons, namely on the transition energy from adiabatic and pair-production energy losses. The Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR) spectrum presents a low-energy steepening approximately at this energy, which is very close to the position of the observed second knee. The dip, seen in the universal spectrum as a signature of the proton interaction with the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) radiation, is also present in the case of diffusive propagation in magnetic fields.

description: In this paper we analyze the optimal regulation of an internationally integrated monopolist, producing in one country and selling in another country. The monopolist's pricing policy is constrained by transfer pricing regulations, and is subject to different tax rates on profits in the two countries. The governments of the two countries can use their tax rates as regulatory instruments, and they also determine an arm's length interval of acceptable transfer prices. The two governments can cooperate in order to maximize world welfare, or they can each try to maximize their own country welfare. It is shown that in several of the solutions governments apply a golden rule. This rule requires that the firm realizes all profits in the manufacturing country, while no profits are made in the retailing country. This can be obtained by choosing a sufficiently high (low) tax rate in the retailing (manufacturing) country, or by appropriately fixing the transfer price.

In particular, we start with free groups, that is, we give an effective procedure to find out if a finitely generated subgroup of a free group is conjugacy stable. Then we further generalize this result to quasi-convex subgroups of torsion-free hyperbolic groups and finitely generated subgroups of limit groups.

description: The impossibility proof of unconditionally secure quantum bit commitment is crucially dependent on the assertion that Bob is not allowed to generate probability distributions unknown to Alice. This assertion is actually not meaningful, because Bob can always cheat without being detected. In this paper we prove that, for any concealing protocol involving secret probability distributions, there exists a cheating unitary transformation that is known to Alice. Our result closes a gap in the original impossibility proof.

The observed IRX is used to constrain dust extinction. Stellar mass is also inferred from the model fitting. By fitting observed spectral energy distributions (SEDs) with synthetical ones, we derive two-dimensional distributions of stellar age, metallicity, dust extinction, and stellar mass. In M 51, two grand-designed spiral arms extending from the bulge show young age, rich metallicity, and abundant dust. The inter-arm regions are filled with older, metal-poorer, and less dusty stellar populations. Except for the spiral arm extending from M 51 into NGC 5195, the stellar population properties of NGC 5195 are quite featureless. NGC 5195 is much older than M 51, and its core is very dusty with $A_V$ up to 1.67 mag and dense in stellar mass surface density. The close encounters might drive the dust in the spiral arm of M51 into the center of NGC 5195.

description: This paper uses data from Uganda's largest incumbent microfinance institution to analyze the impact of entry by competing lenders on client behavior. We first examine the geographic placement decisions of competitors, and find that placement decisions are strongly affected by district-level characteristics. We observe that increased competition induces a decline in repayment performance and in savings deposited with the incumbent Village Bank, suggesting multiple loan-taking by clients. Urban clients take multiple loans primarily from lenders with more individual methodologies, while rural clients borrow from several group lenders. Individuals who operate larger businesses are the ones most likely to leave the incumbent Village Bank when a Solidarity Group lender enters the marketplace.

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: This thesis explores the impact of project-based learning (PBL) on the language proficiency of English as a Foreign Language (EFL) students. PBL is an instructional method that encourages students to engage in real-world projects, enhancing their language skills through collaborative and meaningful activities. This study reviews the literature on PBL and its effectiveness in promoting language proficiency, highlighting its benefits in fostering critical thinking, communication skills, and learner autonomy. The findings suggest that PBL positively influences EFL students' language proficiency, providing them with opportunities for authentic language use in collaborative settings. Recommendations for integrating PBL into EFL curricula are discussed, emphasizing the importance of teacher training and resource availability to maximize the benefits of this approach.

description: Conditional cash transfer (CCT) programs for education are known to be effective in increasing educational achievements among the rural poor. Using panel data from the Progresa experience with randomized treatment, we show that there is strong state dependence in school attendance. Short term shocks that take children out of school will consequently have long term consequences on their educational achievements. We show that idiosyncratic and covariate shocks do indeed push parents to take children out of school and to use child labor as risk coping instruments. However, CCT help protect children from these shocks, creating an additional benefit from these programs as effective safety nets with long term benefits.

description: This paper presents research in the field of mechanical engineering, which analyzes the benefits provided by exercises concerning physical and psychological health, especially for people with disabilities. Finally, it presents a solution to help in the practice of specific activities for the target audience. The study aims to elaborate and scale an adaptive prosthesis that will contribute to people undergoing trans-radial amputation (given between the elbow and wrist joint) to practice specific exercises of bodybuilding carefully, expanding the accessibility and providing a higher quality of life, personal promotion and social inclusion. For these objectives, applied research occurred. It sought to solve the problem by introducing a device derived from data collection in articles, theses, and manuals, along with the observation of existing models of prostheses and orthotics, it's functioning, and main points. Data analysis shows that the prosthesis brings innovation to others because it can adapt to different biotypes, generating advantages not only for users but also to institutions such as academies and rehabilitation centers.

description: This paper introduces the concept of Bessel multipliers. These operators are defined by a fixed multiplication pattern, which is inserted between the Analysis and synthesis operators. The proposed concept unifies the approach used for Gabor multipliers for arbitrary analysis/synthesis systems, which form Bessel sequences, like wavelet or irregular Gabor frames. The basic properties of this class of operators are investigated. In particular the implications of summability properties of the symbol for the membership of the corresponding operators in certain operator classes are specified. As a special case the multipliers for Riesz bases are examined and it is shown that multipliers in this case can be easily composed and inverted. Finally the continuous dependence of a Bessel multiplier on the parameters (i.e. the involved sequences and the symbol in use) is verified, using a special measure of similarity of sequences.

description: Being motivated by physical applications (as the phi^4 model) we calculate the heat kernel coefficients for generalised Laplacians on the Moyal plane containing both left and right multiplications. We found both star-local and star-nonlocal terms. By using these results we calculate the large mass and strong noncommutativity expansion of the effective action and of the vacuum energy. We also study the axial anomaly in the models with gauge fields acting on fermions from the left and from the right.

description: Current natural resource policy emphasizes devolved control to local levels of government and stakeholder groups. Effective strategies are as yet unclear, given mixed results in devolutionary efforts and few empirical analyses. Using original community-level survey data from Oaxaca, Mexico, a region with 90% common property forestland, the study describes how existing community governance structures accommodate an increasing local role in managing forest land. Multidimensional performance indicators for forest condition and group rule conformance are constructed and regressed on measures of democratic involvement and attendance rate at general meetings within the community setting. Empirical results show that community officials and foresters working through broader-reaching forums for disseminating information and seeking management plan approval improves both performance indicators, while attendance rate additionally leads to greater rule conformance. Results imply that the nature and conduit of community involvement matters in encouraging cooperation with management objectives and give a further understanding of how devolution policies can be applied in complex institutional settings.
Phenomenological model for a novel melt-freeze phase of sliding bilayers
Creators: name: Mai, Trieu
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2006
Subjects: subject: Soft Condensed Matter (cond-mat.soft)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Simulations show that sliding bilayers of colloidal particles can exhibit a new phase, the ``melt-freeze'' phase, where the layers stochastically alternate between solidlike and liquidlike states. We introduce a mean field phenomenological model with two order parameters to understand the interplay of two adjacent layers while the system is in this remarkable phase. Predictions from our numerical simulations of a system in the melt-freeze phase include the tendency of two adjacent layers to be in opposite states (solid and liquid) and the difference between the fluctuation of the order parameter in one layer while the other layer is in the same phase compared to the fluctuation while the other layer is in the opposite phase. We expect this behavior to be seen in future simulations and experiments.

description: In this paper, we use the re-summation procedure, suggested in Refs.\cite{DIMST,SALAM,SALAM1,SALAM2}, to fix the BFKL kernel in the NLO. However, we suggest a different way to introduce th non-linear corrections in the saturation region, which is based on the leading twist non-linear equation. In the kinematic region:$τ\,\equiv\,r^2 Q^2_s(Y)\,\leq\,1$ , where $r$ denotes the size of the dipole, $Y$ its rapidity and $Q_s$ the saturation scale, we found that the re-summation contributes mostly to the leading twist of the BFKL equation. Assuming that the scattering amplitude is small, we suggest using the linear evolution equation in this region. For $τ\,>\,1$ we are dealing with the re-summation of $\Lb \bas \,\ln τ\Rb^n$ and other corrections in NLO approximation for the leading twist.We find the BFKL kernel in this kinematic region and write the non-linear equation, which we solve analytically. We believe the new equation could be a basis for a consistent phenomenology based on the CGC approach.

description: We study a dynamic regulation model where firms' actions contribute to a stock externality. The regulator and firms have asymmetric information about serially correlated abatement costs. With price-based policies such as taxes, or if firms trade quotas efficiently, the regulator learns about the evolution of both stock and costs. This ability to learn about costs is important in determining the ranking of taxes and quotas, and in determining the value of a feedback rather than an open-loop policy.

description: We apply an incomplete demand system to supermarket scanner data to estimate the effects of a fat tax on dairy products for different demographic groups. We find own-price elasticities of demand are relatively inelastic and vary little across groups. A fat tax may be an effective means to raise revenue, but will not result in a significant reduction in fat consumption. The welfare effects associated with a fat tax are large and vary greatly across demographic groups. These fat taxes are regressive in nature, as the elderly and poor suffer greater welfare losses.

description: The Drinfeld twist for the opposite quasi-Hopf algebra is determined and is shown to be related to the (second) Drinfeld twist. The twisted Drinfeld twist is investigated. In the quasi-triangular case it is shown that the Drinfeld u operator arises from the equivalence of the opposite quasi-Hopf algebra to the quasi-Hopf algebra induced by twisting with the R-matrix. The Altschuler-Coste u operator arises in a similar way and is shown to be closely related to the Drinfeld u operator. The quasi-cocycle condition is introduced, and is shown to play a central role in the uniqueness of twisted structures on quasi-Hopf algebras. A generalisation of the dynamical quantum Yang-Baxter equation, called the quasi-dynamical quantum Yang-Baxter equation is introduced.

The notion of empowerment for parent in pediatric health care delivery
Creators: name: Sigurjónsdóttir, Bára
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The delivery of pediatric health care has changed drastically, especially in the roles that families play in the care of their children. Many families are now faced with the challenges of living with a child's chronic condition at home, a situation that affects every aspect of their lives. The role of the nurse in supporting and facilitating the adjustments families have to make in these circumstances has long been recognized. Indeed, today's empowerment trend encourages health care professionals to enhance the competence of families to care for their children. However, further research is needed to gain a clear understanding of how parents obtain empowerment in pediatric nursing care and to answer questions like, What prerequisites are needed in a health care relationship to develop a positive, empowering parent-nurse relationship? The purpose of this study was to gain insight into what kinds of parent-nurse relationships parents describe as empowering and how the relationship is empowering to parents; it was conducted by gathering parents' descriptions of their experiences of empowerment in health care provider relationships with nurses. The main objective of the project was to describe and interpret what it was in the health care relationship that empowered them to develop an understanding of how the parent-nurse relationship is linked to empowerment. The method used in this study was interpretive description, which involves utilizing the existing knowledge as an analytic framework, to conceptualize the findings of the study. For the purpose of interpretive description a purposeful selection of research participants was conducted; eleven parents of children with diverse chronic conditions were interviewed for this study.

description: The impact of global climate change on the less developed countries is analyzed using archetype CGE-multimarket models for three economies representing the poor cereal importing nations of Africa, Asia, and Latin America. The objective is to predict the differential impact of climate change across continents on macroeconomic variables, sectoral responses, and household income and food consumption effects, particularly among the poorest. Results show that all these countries will lose and that their agricultural outputs will fall, but that Africa will be by far the most severely affected. Countervailing policies to mitigate negative effects should focus on the production of food crops in Africa and of export crops in Latin America and Asia.
