description: Recurrence plot based measures of complexity are capable tools for characterizing complex dynamics. In this letter we show the potential of selected recurrence plot measures for the investigation of even high-dimensional dynamics. We apply this method on spatially extended chaos, such as derived from the Lorenz96 model and show that the recurrence plot based measures can qualitatively characterize typical dynamical properties such as chaotic or periodic dynamics. Moreover, we demonstrate its power by analyzing satellite image time series of vegetation cover with contrasting dynamics as a spatially extended and potentially high-dimensional example from the real world.

description: We discuss the sensitivity of a 100 TeV pp collider to heavy particles decaying to top-antitop final states. This center-of-mass energy, together with an integrated luminosity of 10 ab-1, can produce heavy particles in the mass range of several tens of teraelectronvolts (TeV). A Monte Carlo study has been performed using boosted-top techniques to reduce QCD background for the reconstruction of heavy particles with masses in the range of 8-20 TeV, and various widths. In particular, we have studied two models that predict heavy states, a model with an extra gauge boson (Zprime) and with a Kaluza-Klein (KK) excitation of the gluon (gKK). We estimate the sensitive values of $σ\times$Br of about 2 (4) fb for Zprime (gKK), with a corresponding mass reach of 13 (20) TeV.

description: Background/ Objectives: Mycophenolate mofetil is an anti-metabolite used for prevention of transplant rejection and treatment of autoimmune disease. Its clinical utility in ANCA associated vasculitis has been assessed for both relapse prevention and induction, as an alternative to cyclophosphamide. The IMPROVE trial2 aimed to demonstrate that mycophenolate mofetil was superior to azathioprine for the prevention of relapse of ANCA associated vasculitis after cyclophosphamide and steroid induction. The results demonstrated a higher relapse rate in patients treated with mycophenolate mofetil compared to azathioprine but it the association of efficacy with ANCA subtype was not explored. Methods: Eligibility for IMPROVE required a new diagnosis of GPA or MPA with a positive MPO or PR3-ANCA and age ≥ 18 years. A post-hoc analysis of the IMPROVE database was performed to assess differences in relapse free survival between mycophenolate and azathioprine treatment groups according to MPO or PR3-ANCA specificity using the Kaplan-Meier method. Results: Of 159 patients randomised in the trial 55 (35%) were MPO-ANCA and 103 (65%) PR3-ANCA positive (1 patient was ANCA negative). Patients were randomised to either Mycophenolate mofetil (MPO-ANCA 32, PR3-ANCA 51) or azathioprine (MPO-ANCA 26, PR3-ANCA 57). Patients of either ANCA specificity were well matched in ter of age and entry creatinine. There was no difference in mean relapse free survival in patients with MPO-ANCA 174.4 days for either treatment group (p=0.97). In patients with PR3-ANCA the mean relapse free survival was 165.6 days for the azathioprine versus 126.8 for the mycophenolate mofetil treatment groups (p=0.01). Conclusions: This post-hoc analysis found no difference in time to relapse between mycophenolate mofetil and azathioprine for the MPO-ANCA subgroup, but a reduction in time to relapse with mycophenolate mofetil compared to azathioprine for the PR3-ANCA subgroup. These results are consistent with those observed for remission induction in the MYCYC1 trial and suggest that azathioprine is a preferred relapse prevention treatment for PR3-ANCA vasculitis after cyclophosphamide induction.

description: A university’s website is its “most critical marketing asset” (SimpsonScarborough, Pantheon & SiteImprove, 2021, p. 5). As digitally-savvy students weigh their options for their future, many make-or-break decisions are made by the value and usefulness of higher education institutions’ (HEIs) digital presence. Students bring specific queries for HEIs websites — how much is the tuition? Will I fit in on this campus? What kind of majors and minors do they offer? If HEIs make this content hard-to-find or confusing (or don’t display enough needed information), then prospective students will look elsewhere (National Student Clearinghouse Research Center, 2023).

description: We study heat transport in two systems without momentum conservation: a hydrodynamic system, and a holographic system with spatially dependent, massless scalar fields. When momentum dissipates slowly, there is a well-defined, coherent collective excitation in the AC heat conductivity, and a crossover between sound-like and diffusive transport at small and large distance scales. When momentum dissipates quickly, there is no such excitation in the incoherent AC heat conductivity, and diffusion dominates at all distance scales. For a critical value of the momentum dissipation rate, we compute exact expressions for the Green's functions of our holographic system due to an emergent gravitational self-duality, similar to electric/magnetic duality, and SL(2,R) symmetries. We extend the coherent/incoherent classification to examples of charge transport in other holographic systems: probe brane theories and neutral theories with non-Maxwell actions.

description: Introduction: The demand for appearance and performance enhancing substances, including muscle building supplements and anabolic androgenic steroids, is increasing in Australia. However, little is known about the associations between appearance and performance-based factors and appearance and performance enhancing substances (APES), particularly among adolescent boys. This study sought to examine (a) the prevalence of muscle building supplement use in a sample of adolescent boys and (b) how both performance and appearance factors relate to muscle building supplement use and favourable attitudes towards anabolic androgenic steroids in this sample. Method: N = 488 adolescent boys aged 13–16 (Mage = 14.59) from nine Australian schools completed measures of supplement use, favourable attitudes towards using steroids, muscle dissatisfaction, body fat dissatisfaction, mesomorphic ideal internalisation, weight training, and sports participation. Hierarchical logistic regressions were used to examine cross-sectional correlates of muscle building supplement use and favourable attitudes towards using anabolic androgenic steroids. Results: In the past three months, 12.7% of the sample had used muscle building supplements. Both appearance and performance-related factors – mesomorphic ideal internalisation and weight training – were related to muscle building supplement use. Only one appearance-related factor – body dissatisfaction – was related to favourable attitudes towards anabolic androgenic steroids. Discussion: The findings from this study are important as they may help to guide intervention strategies regarding appearance and performance enhancing substance use by Australian adolescent boys, with the ultimate goal of ensuring this population’s safety.

Subjects: Interactive Multimedia

description: The purpose of this non-traditional thesis project is to serve and guide aspiring sports female broadcasters during their career development and exploration. The sports broadcasting industry is primarily male. While there is a rise in females in the space, there is an increasing need to better understand the best ways females can brand and promote themselves to become competitive job candidates. Overall, aspiring female broadcasters should 1) get involved in broadcasting at their university and through internships 2) create a versatile personal brand that is constantly adapted and measured 3) promote themselves in such a way that combats negative stereotypes about women in sports and 4) utilize social media platforms such as Instagram, Facebook, Tiktok and Twitter to exploit their personal brand and increase awareness and engagement. The findings of this thesis project take the form of a website, Aspire2Broadcast, which covers the history of women in sports broadcasting, personal branding and promotion theories and techniques, suggestions from former and current sports broadcasters, and a guide to broadcasting.
How Does Political Pressure Impact the Efficacy of Monetary Policy in the US?

description: There has been a big push for more central bank independence in the last several decades. In my thesis, I examine whether monetary policy changes in response to political pressure. In particular, I derive a political pressure index on the Fed from conducting text mining on about nine decades of presidential speeches. I then examine the effect of political pressure on the Fed’s reaction function to two key macroeconomic targets: inflation and unemployment rate. I find that the more the President talks about the Fed, the more the Fed deviates from targeting inflation to unemployment rate.

description: We develop the tight-binding model to study electronic and optical properties of graphane. The strong sp3 chemical bondings among the carbon and hydrogen atoms induce a special band structure and thus lead to the rich optical excitations. The absorption spectrum hardly depends on the direction of electric polarization. It ex- hibits a lot of shoulder structures and absorption peaks, which arise from the extreme points and the saddle points of the parabolic bands, respectively. The threshold op- tical excitations, only associated with the 2px and 2py orbitals of the carbon atoms, are revealed in a shoulder structure at ?3.5 eV. The first symmetric absorption peak, appearing at ~11 eV, corresponds to energy bands due to the considerable hybridiza- tion of carbon 2pz orbitals and H 1s orbitals. Also, some absorption peaks at higher frequencies indicate the bonding of 2s and 1s orbitals. These results are in sharp contrast to those of the sp2 graphene systems.

description: This thesis empowers healthcare organizations by examining best practices and academic theories related to the subject of crisis communications in healthcare and culminating in a crisis communications guidelines deliverable. The deliverable will aid healthcare organizations’ crisis communications teams in their crisis planning by addressing the key elements of effective crisis communications plans. Research Questions & Method—We developed the crisis communication guidelines deliverable with three research questions (RQ):  (RQ #1) What are the key elements of an effective healthcare organization’s crisis communications plans; (RQ #2) How does the organization’s social media plan integrate into the crisis communications plan; and (RQ #3) How do best practices vary depending on hospital type (size, region, legal status, number of employees, etc. The information for the analysis was collected using three methods: (1) qualitative and quantitative data obtained from the guidelines survey; (2) a comprehensive analysis of six crisis communications plans obtained from various healthcare organizations located in North Carolina; and (3) a literature review of crisis communications best practices.  Research results—The requirements uncovered to address Research Question #1 were the following components that need to be included in a crisis communications plan: a crisis communications team, crisis communications protocols, crisis messaging, and ongoing crisis training and/or drills.

description: We study Weitzenböck's torsion and discuss its properties. Specifically, we calculate the measured components of Weitzenböck's torsion tensor for a frame field adapted to static observers in a Fermi normal coordinate system that we establish along the world line of an arbitrary accelerated observer in general relativity. A similar calculation is carried out in the standard Schwarzschild-like coordinates for static observers in the exterior Kerr spacetime; we then compare our results with the corresponding curvature components. Our work supports the contention that in the extended general relativistic framework involving both the Levi-Civita and Weitzenböck connections, curvature and torsion provide complementary representations of the gravitational field.

description: The process of Radiative Emission of Neutrino Pair (RENP) in atoms is sensitive to the absolute neutrino mass scale, the type of spectrum neutrino masses obey and the nature - Dirac or Majorana - of massive neutrinos. We analyse the possibility to test the hypothesis of existence of neutrinos with masses at the eV scale coupled to the electron in the weak charged lepton current in an RENP experiment. The presence of eV scale neutrinos in the neutrino mixing is associated with the existence of sterile neutrinos which mix with the active flavour neutrinos. At present there are a number of hints for active-sterile neutrino oscillations driven by $Δm^2 \sim 1~{\rm eV^2}$. We perform a detailed analysis of the RENP phenomenology within the "3 + 1" scheme with one sterile neutrino.

description: Pulsars are wonderful gravitational probes. Their tiny size and stellar mass give their rotation periods a stablility comparable to that of atomic frequency standards. This is especially true of the rapidly rotating "millisecond pulsars" (MSPs). Many of these rapidly rotating pulsars are in orbit with another star, allowing pulsar timing to probe relativistic perturbations to the orbital motion. Pulsars have provided the most stringent tests of theories of relativistic gravitation, especially in the strong-field regime, and have shown that Einstein's general theory of relativity is an accurate description of the observed motions. Many other gravitational theories are effectively ruled out or at least severely constrained by these results. MSPs can also be used to form a "Pulsar Timing Array" (PTA). PTAs are Galactic-scale interferometers that have the potential to directly detect nanohertz gravitational waves from astrophysical sources. Orbiting super-massive black holes in the cores of distant galaxies are the sources most likely to be detectable. Although no evidence for gravitational waves has yet been found in PTA data sets, the latest limits are seriously constraining current ideas on galaxy and black-hole evolution in the early Universe.

SPONSORSHIP IN ACTIONS SPORTS: A CRITICAL ANALYSIS
Creators: name: Hogan, Brian
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2023

description: The world of action sports sponsorship is one that is constantly changing and is continuing to grow by the day. The goal of this project is to contribute to the understanding and assessment of sponsorship efforts in action sports. Companies such as Red Bull and Monster Energy are pioneers in this space and have seen high levels of success as a result of their efforts to sponsor athletes and team. The question remains, as this area of business continues to grow, so does the cost of sponsorship, how can a simple sticker on a helmet or vinyl on the side of a car justify the millions of dollars spent on the sponsorship?  The simple answer is that there are many hidden factors at play. Sponsorship efforts create significant results in terms of intangible factors, these are assets such as brand, awareness, brand image, social media presence and so on. Following the path model these translate into tangible results such as purchases, sales revenue, profit, and other concrete examples of increased financial success for the company. However, these efforts tend to have a lagging effect. This means that if a company sponsors and event, the results may not be seen for weeks or months.  These efforts may cause direct purchases of products immediately but more often, the brand or logo is stored in the consumers brain and creates brand awareness and recognition. This puts the company at the top of their mind when it comes time to purchase.  Overall, the path model illustrates how these sponsorships pay off for companies sponsoring events. However, how the processes in between initial sponsorship and desired increase profit numbers remains in muddy waters. Companies need to look more critically on how much of the marketing budget is allocated to sponsorship, especially those who are not seeing results but believe they are on the horizon.

description: This paper considers the problem of recovering an ensemble of Diracs on a sphere from its low resolution measurements. The Diracs can be located at any location on the sphere, not necessarily on a grid. We show that under a separation condition, one can recover the ensemble with high precision by a three-stage algorithm, which consists of solving a semi-definite program, root finding and least-square fitting. The algorithm's computation time depends solely on the number of measurements, and not on the required solution accuracy. We also show that in the special case of non-negative ensembles, a sparsity condition is sufficient for recovery. Furthermore, in the discrete setting, we estimate the recovery error in the presence of noise as a function of the noise level and the super-resolution factor.

description: Motivated by recent numerical simulations of molecular cloud (MC)evolution, in which the clouds engage in global gravitational contraction, and local collapse events culminate significantly earlier than the global collapse, we investigate the growth of density perturbations embedded in a collapsing background, to which we refer as an Inverse Hubble Flow (IHF). We use the standard procedure for the growth of perturbations in a universe that first expands (the usual Hubble Flow) and then recollapses (the IHF). We find that linear density perturbations immersed in an IHF grow faster than perturbations evolving in a static background (the standard Jeans analysis). A fundamental distinction between the two regimes is that, in the Jeans case, the time $τ_\mathrm{nl}$ for a density fluctuation to become nonlinear increases without limit as its initial value approaches zero, while in the IHF case $τ_\mathrm{nl} \le τ_\mathrm{ff}$ always, where $τ_\mathrm{ff}$ is the free-fall time of the background density. We suggest that this effect, although moderate, implies that small-scale density fluctuations embedded in globally-collapsing clouds must collapse earlier than their parent cloud, regardless of whether the initial amplitude of the fluctuations is moderate or strongly nonlinear, thus allowing the classical mechanism of Hoyle fragmentation to operate in multi-Jeans-mass MCs. More fundamentally, our results show that, contrary to the standard paradigm that fluctuations of all scales grow at the same rate in the linear regime, the hierarchical nesting of the fluctuations of different scales does affect their growth even in the linear stage.

Improving the Digital Health Care Experience: Applying Digital Communication Best Practices within Patient Portal Messaging in Pediatric Care to Support Both Child Physical Health and Parent Emotional Health
Creators: name: Jansen, Kaitlin
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: The patient portal has become an increasingly popular way for patients to communicate with their doctors, beginning in 2009 when legislation required certain health systems to adopt systems that digitized patient records and becoming even more prevalent during the COVID-19 pandemic. Although there is evidence-based research guiding how doctors should communicate with their patients in person, there is a dearth of similar research guiding digital communication. In this qualitative study, the researcher conducted interviews with parents who currently use patient portal messaging to communicate with their pediatric care teams in order to identify patient preferences to inform communication best practices. The interviews revealed a wide variance in how portal messaging is used among different pediatric practices and helped to identify areas for improvement within pediatric provider communication. The interviews also revealed that many patients are satisfied with their current portal messaging experience, which helped to solidify which communication practices should be continued to optimize parents’ experience. After interviews were organized into themes, four key guidelines emerged, which are detailed in an accompanying best practices guide for pediatric providers. Moving forward, it is important to consider that each patient’s preferences may differ and that these guidelines may not apply in every situation. Further study is needed to better understand variance in parent preferences surrounding portal messaging.

description: Background: Growing evidence indicated that dysregulated circRNAs play a vital role in autoimmune diseases. However, their role in anti-neutrophil cytoplasmic antibody (ANCA)-associated vasculitis (AAV) has never been illustrated. This study aims to determine the expression profiles of circRNA in plasma of AAV patients and explore the potential of circRNA as biomarker of AAV. Methods: RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) was performed to identify the circRNAs and mRNAs expression profiles in plasma from 5 AAV patients and 5 healthy controls (HCs). Hsa_circ_0028381, one of the four candidate circRNAs were validated by quantitative reverse-transcription (qRT)-PCR in a validation cohort of 51 AAV patients and 30 HCs and was confirmed to be significantly upregulated. And it was further verified in other connective tissue diseases (CTDs) by qRT-PCR. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis was performed to assess the diagnostic value. Results: RNA expression profiles revealed that 143 circRNAs and 304 mRNAs were aberrantly expressed, among which, 62 circRNAs were upregulated and 81 circRNAs were downregulated in AAV patients compared to HCs. The result of qRT-PCR verification suggested that hsa_circ_0028381 was significantly increased in plasma from AAV patients compared to that in HCs and CTDs. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves analysis showed has_circ_0028381 had a good diagnostic value to distinguish AAV patients from controls (HCs and other CTDs) with area under the curve (AUC) of 0.81. In addition, has_circ_0028381 was associated with renal involvement. Most importantly, increased baseline level of has_circ_0028381 had a predictive value for renal progression to end-stage renal disease (ESRD). Conclusions: RNA-seq revealed that circRNAs were aberrantly expressed in plasma of AAV patients. Has_circ_0028381 might function as a potential biomarker for AAV diagnosis and renal prognosis. Disclosures: The authors have no conflicts of interest to disclose.

In the Mouth of a Waterfall: Seeking Alternative Explanations and Treatments for Psychosis
Creators: name: Kammerer, Christopher
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2023

description: This project comprises three articles of 5,000-10,000 words on the topic of psychosis. The first article looks at Western psychology's approach to what it labels "psychotic disorders" and "psychotic episodes." To illustrate this for readers I introduce the stories of multiple people who've experienced psychosis, myself included. These stories develop through all three articles to demonstrate aspects of nonordinary states of consciousness and their potential purpose in psycho-social development. The second article explores the overlap of psychosis and spiritual awakening experiences by studying the teachings, practices, and stories of Vedic Hinduism and Zen Buddhism. The third examines the ways Indigenous communities approach people who are having hallucinations, delusions, or exhibiting other behaviors that we might term "psychotic," and how this often marks them for taking on a shamanic role within the society. By comparing three different cultural lenses for this universal human occurrence, I hope to offer insight for people who are experiencing psychosis, people who have family members experiencing psychosis, or clinicians and social workers working with this segment of society so that our culture can consider alternative ways of approaching, treating and guiding people through the other side.

description: Direct detection (DD) of dark matter (DM) candidates in the $\lesssim$10 GeV mass range is very sensitive to the tail of their velocity distribution. The important quantity is the maximum WIMP speed in the observer's rest frame, i.e. in average the sum of the local Galactic escape speed $v_{\rm esc}$ and of the circular velocity of the Sun $v_c$. While the latter has been receiving continuous attention, the former is more difficult to constrain. The RAVE Collaboration has just released a new estimate of $v_{\rm esc}$ (Piffl {\em et al.}, 2014 --- P14) that supersedes the previous one (Smith {\em et al.}, 2007), which is of interest in the perspective of reducing the astrophysical uncertainties in DD. Nevertheless, these new estimates cannot be used blindly as they rely on assumptions in the dark halo modeling which induce tight correlations between the escape speed and other local astrophysical parameters. We make a self-consistent study of the implications of the RAVE results on DD assuming isotropic DM velocity distributions, both Maxwellian and ergodic. Taking as references the experimental sensitivities currently achieved by LUX, CRESST-II, and SuperCDMS, we show that: (i) the exclusion curves associated with the best-fit points of P14 may be more constraining by up to $\sim 40$% with respect to standard limits, because the underlying astrophysical correlations induce a larger local DM density; (ii) the corresponding relative uncertainties inferred in the low WIMP mass region may be moderate, down to 10-15% below 10 GeV. We finally discuss the level of consistency of these results with other independent astrophysical constraints. This analysis is complementary to others based on rotation curves.

description: The purpose of this study is to examine the ways in which organizations in the theme park industry have implemented social media into their internal communication practices. Based on a park-level qualitative content analysis of four employee-focused Instagram accounts from Disneyland Resort, Walt Disney World Resort, Universal Orlando Resort and Universal Studios Hollywood, this study found that these companies primarily use social media as an employee recognition tool. The study also found that general sentiment among users who interact with the accounts is overall positive. Based on these findings, this study gathered a list of four insights to ensure successful implementation of social media for internal audiences across the theme park industry.

description: We extend our previous analysis and consider the interacting holographic Ricci dark energy (IRDE) model in non-flat universe. We study astrophysical constraints on this model using the recent observations including the type Ia supernovae (SNIa), the baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO), the cosmic microwave background (CMB) anisotropy, and the Hubble parameter. It is shown that the allowed parameter range for the fractional energy density of the curvature is $-0.005$ $\lesssim$ $Ω_{k0}$ $\lesssim$ $0.015$ in the presence of the interactions between dark energy and matter. Without the interaction, the flat universe is observationally disfavored in this model.

What Comes with the Spotlight?: Effective Utilization of Celebrity in Contemporary Marketing Strategies
Creators: name: Mcclay III, David
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2023

description: No research account of modern marketing and advertising strategies would be complete without mentioning the role that celebrities play in shaping contemporary marketing. Though now considered a mainstay of modern marketing, the role of celebrity is not a recent development in the field of marketing. Celebrities, such as famous artists, athletes, and public personalities, have long been used to influence consumers’ purchasing decisions dating back to at least the Roman era. Historical accounts reveal that “celebrity” endorsements were common in the ancient era. For example, gladiator Milo of Croton, received free food, accommodations, and other compensation for his endorsements of vendors around the Colosseum1. Similarly, nineteenth-century periodicals show the significant role of celebrities in marketing, including Pope Leo XIII and Thomas Edison’s endorsement of the famous Bordeaux wine, Vin Marian.2 The only difference is that prior to the twentieth century, marketers only turned to celebrity endorsement as an occasional marketing tactic, but today, the strategy serves as equally as any other ubiquitous marketing tool.

Proposed GalNAc glycosylation pathways in human O and non-O blood groups during malaria tropica infection; how O-GalNAc glycans may drive evolution.

description: Malaria tropica infection occurs during coevolution with
the protozoan parasite Plasmodium falciparum, which does not
survive outside its metazoan host. Since this parasite, although abundantly
expressing serine residues, does not perform N-acetyl-D-galactosamine
(GalNAc) O-glycosylations, the host's evolutionarily first protein
glycosylation - [or serologically A-like, O-GalNAcα1-Ser/Thr-R, “T
nouvelle” (Tn) antigen formation] - might act as a trans-species functional
molecular bridge. In humans, this intermediate, genetically undefined
glycosylation will be completed with the human-intrinsic ABO(H)-allelic
mucin-type glycosylation, which molecularly implicates the phenotypic
downregulation of corresponding nonimmune or "natural" anti-A/Tn, anti-B/T
(Thomsen-Friedenreich) and anti-H immunoglobulin M (IgM) or isoagglutinin
reactivities and thus protects the human from autoaggression but concurrently promotes
whose contact with the pathogen. While the non-O(H) blood groups A, B and AB are
highly burdened with the risk of developing live-threatening disease, blood
group AB, precluding any corresponding antibody response has the strongest
contact with the pathogen and remains the smallest among the ABO(H) blood
groups. In contrast, blood group O(H) individuals maintain the "natural"
anti-A/Tn and anti-B/T reactivities and hypothetically have the weakest contact
with the pathogen via hybrid O-fucosylations. These individuals rarely
develop severe malaria disease and survive this coevolution as the most
frequently occurring, largest blood group worldwide.
Complex Narrow Line Seyfert 1s: High spin or high inclination?

description: Complex narrow line Seyfert 1s (NLS1s), such as 1H0707-495, differ from simple NLS1s like PG1244+026 by showing stronger broad spectral features at Fe K and larger amplitude flux variability. These are correlated: the strongest Fe K features are seen during deep dips in the light curves of complex NLS1s. There are two competing explanations for these features, one where a compact X-ray source on the spin axis of a highly spinning black hole approaches the horizon and the consequent strong relativistic effects focus the intrinsic flux onto the inner edge of a thin disc, giving a dim, reflection dominated spectrum. The other is that the deep dips are caused by complex absorption by clumps close to the hard X-ray source. The reflection dominated model is able to reproduce the very short 30s soft lag from reverberation seen in the complex NLS1 1H0707-495. However, it does not explain the characteristic switch to hard lags on longer timescales. Instead, a full model of propagating fluctuations coupled to reverberation can explain the switch in the simple NLS1 PG1244+026 using a low spin black hole. However PG1244+026 has a longer reverberation lag of $\sim 200$s. Here we extend the successful propagation-reverberation model for the simple NLS1 PG1244+026 to include the effect of absorption from clumps in a turbulent region above the disk. The resulting occultations of the inner accretion flow can introduce additional hard lags when relativistic effects are taken into account. This dilutes the soft lag from reverberation and shifts it to higher frequencies, making a smooth transition between the 200s lags seen in simple NLS1s to the 30s lags in complex NLS1s. These two classes of NLS1 could then be determined by inclination angle with respect to a clumpy, probably turbulent, failed wind structure on the disc.

Confinement of two-dimensional rods in slit pores and square cavities

description: Using Monte Carlo simulation, we analyse the behaviour of two-dimensional hard rods in four different types of geometric confinement: (i) a slit pore where the particles are confined between two parallel walls with homeotropic anchoring; (ii) a hybrid slit pore formed by a planar and a homeotropic wall; square cavities that frustrate the orientational order by imposing either (iii) homeotropic or (iv) planar wall anchoring. We present results for the state diagram as a function of the packing fraction and the degree of confinement. Under extreme confinement, unexpected states appear with lower symmetries than those of the corresponding stable states in bulk, such as the formation of states that break the anchoring constraints or the symmetry imposed by the surfaces. In both types of square cavities the particles form disclinations at intermediate densities. At high densities, however, the elastic stress is relaxed via the formation of domain walls where the director rotates abruptly by ninety degrees.
