description: Sex pheromone activity in the foveal glands of female Dermacentor andersoni (Stiles) and Dermacentor variabilis (Say) is described. Autoradiography revealed the accumulation of 36Cl in the foveal glands of females during their first 120 hours of feeding on a 36Cl-labeled host. Emissions collected from these females contained a 36Cl-labeled product. This product, however, was absent in emissions collected from the same females with their foveae dorsales obstructed.

Accumulation of 36Cl in the foveal gland, in conjunction with the release of a 36Cl-labeled product through the foveae dorsales, suggest localization of sex pheromone activity within these sites in female D. andersoni and D. variabilis.

description: Elementary Darboux--Laplace transformations for semidiscrete and discrete second order hyperbolic operators are classified. It is proved that in the (semi)-discrete case there are two types of elementary Darboux--Laplace transformations as well: Darboux transformations that are defined by the choice of particular element in the kernel of the initial hyperbolic operator and classical Laplace transformations that are defined by the operator itself. It is proved that in the discrete case on the level of equivalence classes any Darboux--Laplace transformation is a product of elementary ones.

description: Understanding the mechanism of high temperature (high Tc) superconductivity is a central problem in condensed matter physics. It is often speculated that high Tc superconductivity arises from a doped Mott insulator as described by the Hubbard model. An exact solution of the Hubbard model, however, is extremely challenging due to the strong electron-electron correlation. Therefore, it is highly desirable to experimentally study a model Hubbard system in which the unconventional superconductivity can be continuously tuned by varying the Hubbard parameters. Here we report signatures of tunable superconductivity in ABC-trilayer graphene (TLG) / boron nitride (hBN) moiré superlattice. Unlike "magic angle" twisted bilayer graphene, theoretical calculations show that under a vertical displacement field the ABC-TLG/hBN heterostructure features an isolated flat valence miniband associated with a Hubbard model on a triangular superlattice. Upon applying such a displacement field we find experimentally that the ABC-TLG/hBN superlattice displays Mott insulating states below 20 Kelvin at 1/4 and 1/2 fillings, corresponding to 1 and 2 holes per unit cell, respectively. Upon further cooling, signatures of superconducting domes emerge below 1 kelvin for the electron- and hole-doped sides of the 1/4 filling Mott state. The electronic behavior in the TLG/hBN superlattice is expected to depend sensitively on the interplay between the electron-electron interaction and the miniband bandwidth, which can be tuned continuously with the displacement field D. By simply varying the D field, we demonstrate transitions from the candidate superconductor to Mott insulator and metallic phases. Our study shows that TLG/hBN heterostructures offer an attractive model system to explore rich correlated behavior emerging in the tunable triangular Hubbard model.

Year: 2022

description: It is assumed that there is a relationship between the experience of parentification, i.e., the reversal of roles in the family, and the effects of relational trauma resulting from parentification, and the nature of professional work related to broadly understood assistance. Research confirms that people choosing, for example, the profession of a teacher, doctor, psychologist, psychotherapist or nurse, have often experienced parentification in their family of origin. The aim of the study is to draw attention to possible disruptions in performing the professional role by teachers who experienced the role reversal in the family in their childhood. Taking into account the social importance of education system, it seems necessary to carry out representative empirical analyses on the effects of parentification on performing the professional role of teachers and, consequently, undertaking psychoeducational activities.

description: We theoretically examine the capacitive coupling between two quantum dot hybrid qubits, each consisting of three electrons in a double quantum dot, as a function of the energy detuning of the double dot potentials. We show that a shaped detuning pulse can produce a two-qubit maximally entangling operation in $\sim$50ns without having to simultaneously change tunnel couplings. Simulations of the entangling operation in the presence of experimentally realistic charge noise yield two-qubit fidelities over 90%.

description: The study is a presentation of the author’s research project. It concerns a critical analysis of the everyday school life of a child at a younger school age and of pedagogy students as candidates for primary education teachers, in the context of shaping their creative skills.The analysis revealed the short comings of the Polish education system and its ineffectiveness in the area of shaping the creative skills of pupils and students. This gloomy diagnosis prompted the author to undertake qualitative research based on the action research method. The entire research process was carried out in accordance with the theoretical, practical and social research objectives formulated (before and during the research). The main goal of the research was to develop the professional skills of pedagogy students through thepractical implementation of 30-hour classes in creative thinking and action training and to examine the relationship between participation in training and acquiring professional skills. The results of the research showed that the mastery of creative skills by future educators may be the basic factor of their professional success.

Investigating and Diagnosing Circulating Mycobacterial Strains Causing TB in Ghana
Creators: name: Owusu, Wellington
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021

description: Tuberculosis (TB) is one of the infectious diseases with high mortality rate in the world. It is highly endemic among third-world countries with large prevalence in Asia and sub-Saharan Africa. In Ghana, there is a mixed population of mycobacteria strains causing TB namely; M. tuberculosis, M. africanum and M. bovis. Some of the major problems confronting TB management include; lack of rapid, reliable and robust method of diagnosing and differentiating mycobacterial tuberculosis complex (MTBC) species, inherent drug resistance of some species and co-morbidity with HIV, etc. Hence, the objective of this study is to diagnostically identify and differentiate MTBC species causing TB in Ghana. Genome sequences of M. tuberculosis, M. africanum and M. bovis were obtained from NCBI and EMBL-EBI repositories for pangenome analysis. The Mauve alignment of complete genomes was used to check for the uniqueness of genes. Candidate genes were tested by BLAST against the genome sequences of all M. tuberculosis, M. africanum and M. bovis to check for their presence or absence. Three (3) genes were identified to be specific to M. tuberculosis: Rv1977, Rv2073c and Rv2074. The PPE domain Protein (MAF263_35110) and beta-glucosidase (MAFGCA_01990) genes were identified to be unique to M. africanum lineages L5 and L6/ L9 respectively. The Rv3903c gene was identified to be present in all the mycobacterial genomes and hence, could be used for designing a positive control primer. There was no unique gene for M. bovis due to deletions of large genomic regions. However, the formation of a band by only the positive control primer during a multiplex PCR reaction involving all the other primers, could indicate the presence of M. bovis. For multiplex PCR assay, primers were designed for all the genes by assigning specific amplicon size to each of them using the PrimerQuest Tool. In low resource settings with high incidence of tuberculosis, differentiation of MTBC species using a multiplex PCR assay would provide rapid and reliable method of disease diagnosis, improve epidemiological surveillance and help inform appropriate TB drug selection at early time point.

description: The aim of this project was create a series of hybrid pieces in poetry and nonfiction. The creative pieces in this thesis attempt to explore these two genres and what they can offer. My question was: What can poetry offer an artist that nonfiction cannot, and vice versa? Although the aims of these genres are different, I wanted to create pieces that talk to one another across genre and across time. Each piece, be it poetry or prose, informs another. The poems, which are compressions, are made richer by the vast and open landscape of prose. While on the other hand, the poems contain an immediate emotional current that shape the mood of the nonfiction pieces surrounding them. At the core, this is largely a project that attempts to explore memories, the past—to make sense of so much that was lost through the passing of the years. Finally, the work also tried to make sense of recollection. What things do we recollect from the past? Why do we remember the things we remember? How does my mind see?

description: We present fore-optics and calibration unit design of Devasthal Optical Telescope Integral Field Spectrograph (DOTIFS). DOTIFS fore-optics is designed to modify the focal ratio of the light and to match its plate scale to the physical size of Integral Field Units (IFUs). The fore-optics also delivers a telecentric beam to the IFUs on the telescope focal plane. There is a calibration unit part of which is combined with the fore-optics to have a light and compact system. We use Xenon-arc lamp as a continuum source and Krypton/Mercury-Neon lamps as wavelength calibration sources. Fore-optics and calibration unit shares two optical lenses to maintain compactness of the overall subsystem. Here we present optical and opto-mechanical design of the calibration unit and fore-optics as well as calibration scheme of DOTIFS.

description: We present an optical approach to compensating for spatially varying ac-Stark shifts that appear on atomic ensembles subject to strong optical control or trapping fields. The introduction of an additional weak light field produces an intentional perturbation between atomic states that is tuned to suppress the influence of the strong field. The compensation field suppresses sensitivity in one of the transition frequencies of the trapped atoms to both the atomic distribution and motion. We demonstrate this technique in a cold rubidium ensemble and show a reduction in inhomogeneous broadening in the trap. This two-colour approach emulates the magic trapping approach that is used in modern atomic lattice clocks but provides greater flexibility in choice of atomic species, probe transition, and trap wavelength.

description: The Kitt Peak Electron Multiplying CCD (EMCCD) demonstrator is a new instrument that has been developed for use at the Kitt Peak National Observatory's 84-inch telescope. The EMCCD enables single-band optical imaging in the Sloan \textit{g} and \textit{r} bands and Johnson \textit{UVRI} filters. The EMCCD is chosen for its sub-electron effective read noise using large multiplicative gains. As a result, frame rates of greater than 1\,Hz are possible. The field-of-view is 4.4$^\prime$ $\times$ 4.4$^\prime$ and the pixel size is 0.259$^{\prime\prime}$. This camera, coupled with a fully roboticized telescope, is ideal for follow-up of short period, white dwarf binary candidates, as well as short duration transient and periodic sources identified by large field-of-view all-sky surveys such as the Zwicky Transient Facility.

description: We have created a new, clean catalogue of extragalactic non-nuclear X-ray sources by correlating the 3XMM-DR4 data release of the XMM-Newton Serendipitous Source Catalogue with the Third Reference Catalogue of Bright Galaxies and the Catalogue of Neighbouring Galaxies, using an improved version of the method presented in Walton et al. (2011). Our catalogue contains 1,314 sources, of which 384 are candidate ultraluminous X-ray sources (ULXs). The resulting catalogue improves upon previous catalogues in its handling of spurious detections by taking into account XMM-Newton quality flags. We estimate the contamination of ULXs by background sources to be 24 per cent. We define a 'complete' subsample as those ULXs in galaxies for which the sensitivity limit is below $10^{39}$ erg/s and use it to examine the hardness ratio properties between ULX and non-ULX sources, and ULXs in different classes of host galaxy. We find that ULXs have a similar hardness ratio distribution to lower-luminosity sources, consistent with previous studies. We also find that ULXs in spiral and elliptical host galaxies have similar distributions to each other independent of host galaxy morphology, however our results do support previous indications that the population of ULXs is more luminous in star-forming host galaxies than in non-star-forming galaxies. Our catalogue contains further interesting subpopulations for future study, including Eddington Threshold sources and highly variable ULXs. We also examine the highest-luminosity (L$_X$ > $5 \times 10^{40}$ erg/s) ULXs in our catalogue in search of intermediate-mass black hole candidates, and find nine new possible candidates.

description: The structure of spinning particle suggested by the rotating Kerr-Newman (black hole) solution, super-Kerr-Newman solution and the Kerr-Sen solution to low energy string theory is considered. Main peculiarities of the Kerr spinning particle are discussed: a vortex of twisting principal null congruence, singular ring and the Kerr source representing a rotating relativistic disk of the Compton size. A few stringy structures can be found in the real and complex Kerr geometry. Low-energy string theory predicts the existence of a heterotic string placed on the sharp boundary of this disk. The obtained recently supergeneralization of the Kerr-Newman solution suggests the existence of extra axial singular line and fermionic traveling waves concentrating near these singularities. We discuss briefly a possibility of experimental test of these predictions.

description: We present a novel deep learning-based framework: Embedded Feature Similarity Optimization with Specific Parameter Initialization (SOPI) for 2D/3D medical image registration which is a most challenging problem due to the difficulty such as dimensional mismatch, heavy computation load and lack of golden evaluation standard. The framework we design includes a parameter specification module to efficiently choose initialization pose parameter and a fine-registration module to align images. The proposed framework takes extracting multi-scale features into consideration using a novel composite connection encoder with special training techniques.   We compare the method with both learning-based methods and optimization-based methods on a in-house CT/X-ray dataset as well as simulated data to further evaluate performance. Our experiments demonstrate that the method in this paper has improved the registration performance, and thereby outperforms the existing methods in terms of accuracy and running time. We also show the potential of the proposed method as an initial pose estimator.
Electron-phonon interaction in the normal and superconducting states of MgB2

description: For the 40K-superconductor MgB2 we have calculated the electronic and phononic structures and the electron-phonon interaction throughout the Brillouin zone ab initio. In contrast to the isoelectronic graphite, MgB2 has holes in the bonding sigma-bands, which contribute 42 per cent to the density of states: N(0) =0.355 states/(MgB2 eV spin). The total interaction strength, lambda =0.87 and lambda,tr=0.60, is dominated by the coupling of the sigma-holes to the bond-stretching optical phonons with wavenumbers in a narrow range around 590 cm^{-1}. Like the holes, these phonons are quasi two-dimensional and have wave-vectors close to Gamma-A, where their symmetry is E. The pi-electrons contribute merely 0.25 to lambda and to lambda,tr. With Eliashberg theory we evaluate the normal-state resistivity, the density of states in the superconductor, and the B-isotope effect on Tc and Delta0, and find excellent agreement with experiments, when available. Tc=40 K is reproduced with mu*=0.10 and 2Delta0/kB Tc=3.9. MgB2 thus seems to be an intermediate-coupling e-ph pairing s-wave superconductor.

Enhanced mixing in magnetized fingering convection, and implications for RGB stars

description: Double-diffusive convection has been well studied in geophysical contexts, but detailed investigations of the regimes characteristic of stellar or planetary interiors have only recently become feasible. Since most astrophysical fluids are electrically conducting, it is possible that magnetic fields play a role in either enhancing or suppressing double-diffusive convection, but to date there have been no numerical investigations of such possibilities. Here we study the effects of a vertical background magnetic field (aligned with the gravitational axis) on the linear stability and nonlinear saturation of fingering (thermohaline) convection, through a combination of theoretical work and direct numerical simulations (DNSs). We find that a vertical magnetic field rigidifies the fingers along the vertical direction which has the remarkable effect of enhancing vertical mixing. We propose a simple analytical model for mixing by magnetized fingering convection, and argue that magnetic effects may help explain discrepancies between theoretical and observed mixing rates in low-mass red giant branch (RGB) stars. Other implications of our findings are also discussed.

Assessment of different failure propagation mechanisms and recovery trajectories on transport infrastructures

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021

description: As extreme events continue to increase both in magnitude and frequency as a result of climate change, capturing the impacts of these is crucial for decision makers to plan in the short, medium, and long term. There is not much that can be done to prevent the occurrence of extreme weather events, however by predicting the consequences of failure in a multi-modal and multiscale transport system and understanding how that failure propagates with respect to time, and loss of functionality of the asset/system, the consequences could be minimised. There are different failure absorption patterns that can occur when a failure occurs and in the recovery phase, depending on the system's preparedness. However, there is a lack of clear understanding of the pattern of each of these failure absorption and recovery trajectories, as it can show the level of functionality of the transport network post-disaster and hence its performance level. This PhD project aims to address this gap. A comprehensive literature review was conducted, which showed there are very few research studies that investigate different failure propagation patterns as part of the consequence. All the studies have focused on failure in the form of a sudden drop in performance, which for some assets is true but is not always necessarily true. Therefore, in this study, different failure propagation patterns (i.e., trigonometric) are considered for different assets and a sensitivity analysis for a variety of single and multi-hazard scenarios are conducted using different performance indicators in the transport system and investigate the sensitivity of the failure to different modelling assumptions. This poster will include the methodology being used and preliminary results of investigating the range of existing patterns identified in the literature to understand their impact on the prediction of failure consequences.

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Earth and Planetary Astrophysics (astro-ph.EP)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Complex organics are now commonly found in meteorites, comets, asteroids, planetary satellites, and interplanetary dust particles. The chemical composition and possible origin of these organics are presented. Specifically, we discuss the possible link between Solar System organics and the complex organics synthesized during the late stages of stellar evolution. Implications of extraterrestrial organics on the origin of life on Earth and the possibility of existence of primordial organics on Earth are also discussed.

A Langevin Approach to Stock Market Fluctuations and Crashes
Creators: name: Bouchaud, Jean-Philippe
name: Cont, Rama
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: Condensed Matter (cond-mat)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We propose a non linear Langevin equation as a model for stock market fluctuations and crashes. This equation is based on an identification of the different processes influencing the demand and supply, and their mathematical transcription. We emphasize the importance of feedback effects of price variations onto themselves. Risk aversion, in particular, leads to an up-down symmetry breaking term which is responsible for crashes, where `panic' is self reinforcing. It is also responsible for the sudden collapse of speculative bubbles. Interestingly, these crashes appear as rare, `activated' events, and have an exponentially small probability of occurence. We predict that the shape of the falldown of the price during a crash should be logarithmic. The normal regime, where the stock price exhibits behavior similar to that of a random walk, however reveals non trivial correlations on different time scales, in particular on the time scale over which operators perceive a change of trend.

Bruno Latour’s Theo-Ecologies and Eco-Theologies, or on the Pedagogical Potential of a Hybrid Language as an Inspiration for a Religious studies Pedagogy of Religion
Creators: name: Humeniuk, Monika
Publisher: name: Instytut Pedagogiki Uniwersytetu Wrocławskiego
Year: 2022

description: We live in an age of planetary instability. The climate crisis has effectively captured the public imagination. It seems that in the face of numerous environmental crises, even science and religion, despite all their irremediable differences and mutual biases, are sometimes able to think and act together. The interpenetration of these two distinct orders: ‘knowledge’ and ‘faith’ is a symptom of such a change. The example of Bruno Latour’s ecotheological argument presented in this study is an interesting testimony to the hybridization of the language of science and the language of religion. Since Latour’s ‘negotiations’touch upon such unobvious interfaces as STS and humanities or science and religion, it is worthwhile for the pedagogy of religion to reach not only to theology, which is a constant point of reference for the traditional pedagogy of religion, but also to critical religious studies. Its theoretical potential could help integrate the topic of religion withnew-materialist, post-secular, non-anthropocentric, post-humanist, and pro-ecological thought.
Solutions to Cosmological Problems with Energy Conservation and Varying c, G and Lambda

Between Orthodoxy and Heresy in the Pedagogy of Religion. The Hermeneutic and Aesthetic Inspirations by the Thought of Gianni Vattimo, Luigi Pareyson and Erika Fischer-Lichte
Creators: name: Humeniuk, Monika
Publisher: name: Instytut Pedagogiki Uniwersytetu Wrocławskiego
Year: 2022

description: The subject of the study is a project of ‘weak’ pedagogy of religion. This project is inspired by post-metaphysical thought of Gianni Vattimo. Poor ontology and radical hermeneutics become a strategy of opening the pedagogy of religion to heresy, i.e. ambiguity, polyphony of interpretation of texts, artefacts, and religious practices. Thanks to this, the traditional pedagogy of religion gains the possibility of seeking inspiration for itself on new, non-theological borderlines of aesthetics and performatics.Two examples of such references are mentioned in the study: Luigi Pareyson’s aesthetics of formativity and Erika Fischer-Lichte’s aesthetics of performativity. They show interesting examples of progression from orthodoxy to heresy in the ‘weak’ pedagogy of religion.

Stochastic maze solving under the geometric amoebot model
Creators: name: Yadav, Aayush
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2021

description: A self-organizing particle system (SOPS) is a collection of programmable units called particles with fixed computational capabilities. Within a particle system, individual particles execute fully distributed, local, asynchronous algorithms to achieve collective movement, configuration and co-ordination.Leveraging recent developments in stochastic algorithm design for such systems, we propose a Markov chain based algorithm for collective maze-solving under the geometric amoebot model of SOPS for certain types of mazes. The inspiration for our algorithm comes from the algorithm for phototaxing, which uses external stimuli to create asymmetries in particle activity levels, thereby causing displacement of the particle system away from the stimuli.Phototaxing has been proven for systems of two and three particles. We give an algorithm to verify phototaxing in arbitrarily large systems given the set of possible configurations are known. Using this algorithm, we verify that phototaxing also occurs in particle systems of size four.systems of size four.
Intermediate Valence Model for the Colossal Magnetoresistance in Tl_{2}Mn_{2}O_{7}
Creators: name: Ventura, C. I.

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Condensed Matter (cond-mat)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The colossal magnetoresistance exhibited by Tl_{2}Mn_{2}O_{7} is an interesting phenomenon, as it is very similar to that found in perovskite manganese oxides although the compound differs both in its crystalline structure and electronic properties from the manganites. At the same time, other pyrochlore compounds, though sharing the same structure with Tl_{2}Mn_{2}O_{7}, do not exhibit the strong coupling between magnetism and transport properties found in this material. Mostly due to the absence of evidence for significant doping into the Mn-O sublattice, and the tendency of Tl to form conduction bands, the traditional double exchange mechanism mentioned in connection with manganites does not seem suitable to explain the experimental results in this case. We propose a model for Tl_{2}Mn_{2}O_{7} consisting of a lattice of intermediate valence ions fluctuating between two magnetic configurations, representing Mn-3d orbitals, hybridized with a conduction band, which we associate with Tl. This model had been proposed originally for the analysis of intermediate valence Tm compounds. With a simplified treatment of the model we obtain the electronic structure and transport properties of Tl_{2}Mn_{2}O_{7}, with good qualitative agreement to experiments. The presence of a hybridization gap in the density of states seems important to understand the reported Hall data.

Dimensions of Religious Fundamentalism in Theoretical Perspective
Creators: name: Włodarczyk, Rafał
Publisher: name: Instytut Pedagogiki Uniwersytetu Wrocławskiego
Year: 2022

description: The study contains an overview of selected research positions that make up the theory of religious fundamentalism: religious studies researchers, sociologists, political scientists and philosophers, representatives of Western and Polish academic centres. The author sees as assets the differences and divergences between their positions. This gives us a multifold, deepened and advanced understanding of the phenomenon, as well as an insight into which dimensions of this phenomenon is discussed and negotiated in the theory of fundamentalism. Such understanding of fundamentalism can be useful for the pedagogy of religion and general pedagogy, as referred to in the study’s conclusions.
The Dynamics of Illiteracy Formation in India
Creators: name: Pietkiewicz-Pareek, Beata
Publisher: name: Instytut Pedagogiki Uniwersytetu Wrocławskiego
Year: 2022

description: India is one of the fastest growing countries in the world. At the sametime, there are 272, 700, 941 illiterate people in India, most of who mare marginalized by factors such as poverty, gender, disability, and caste. Children are often forgotten, remaining invisible in the strictly hierarchical Indian society. Access to education reserved for the highest castes has led to marginalization of the lowest castes, especially untouchable Dalits. This paper deals with illiteracy in India, its causes and the barriers to overcoming it that lie within the society. The aim is to inform the reader about the problem of discriminationin education which leads to illiteracy.
