Quaker elements in Christopher Fry's dramas
Creators: name: Kirkaldy-Willis, Ian Dunbar
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This thesis examines the interplay of the forces of life, death and love in Fry's plays. The relevance of Quakerism to the issue is established in Chapter I. This chapter takes the mystery of existence as the basic point common to Fry's plays and Quakerism and explores it as it develops in each. Christopher Fry includes within his plays abundant evidence of the tragedy inherent in the human condition. He transcends this awareness, however, in his consistent intimation of the triumph of the vital force and in a concept of redemption through joy as the proper expression of the human spirit. This attitude parallels the basic frame of mind underlying the Quakerism in which Fry has his roots. The Quaker chooses to be amazed at the mystery of existence rather than lament his inability to fathom it. Indeed, he finds this the natural course. Intuitions of a greater reality prevent him from indulging in an unnatural suicidal concern with his human limitations. Chapter II deals more specifically with the mystery of existence within each of Fry's plays. Each play is considered separately. However, since similar themes appear in all his plays, this chapter in fact explores the body of Fry's plays as a whole. It perceives each play as a particular dimension of what is in all his plays. The Appendix establishes the literary relevance of Fry's plays to the theatre as both religious drama and verse drama, and it concludes by describing the relevance of religion and poetry to a type of romance drama. Fry's work as a whole reflects the conviction that romance and comedy are universal, and that they can only be found after the tragic experience. There is something beyond tragedy and Fry calls it comedy. In reaching out to it, he says, one has to pass through tragedy first.

Asymptotic results for bifurcations in pure bending of rubber blocks
Creators: name: Coman, Ciprian

description: The bifurcation of an incompressible neo-Hookean thick block with a ratio of thickness to length {eta}, subject to pure bending, is considered. The two incremental equilibrium equations corresponding to a nonlinear pre-buckling state of strain are reduced to a fourth-order linear eigenproblem that displays a multiple turning point. It is found that for 0 < {eta} < {infty}, the block experiences an Euler-type buckling instability which in the limit {eta} -> {infty} degenerates into a surface instability. Singular perturbation methods enable us to capture this transition, while direct numerical simulations corroborate the analytical results.
Quo vadis Inhaltserschließung der Deutschen Nationalbibliothek? Herausforderungen und Perspektiven

Year: 2015

description: Seit der Ausweitung des Pflichtexemplarrechts auf sog. unkörperliche Medienwerke im Jahr 2006 steht die Deutsche Nationalbibliothek (DNB) vor der Herausforderung, über neue Wege zur Erzeugung bibliografischer Metadaten nachzudenken. Die steigende Menge an Publikationen, die es zu bearbeiten gilt, aber auch deren zunehmende Diversität, machen dies erforderlich. Für die Inhaltserschließung der DNB bedeutet das, dass andere Verfahren neben die intellektuelle Erschließung treten müssen. Die Entwicklung und Einführung automatischer Verfahren für Klassifikation und Beschlagwortung gehören ebenso dazu wie die Nutzung von Fremddaten oder die Gewinnung inhaltserschließender Daten über Konkordanzen. Dies hat Auswirkungen auf Arbeitsabläufe, Erschließungsinstrumente und -standards sowie Datenformate. Die DNB strebt ein Konzept für die Inhaltserschließung an, das zum Ziel hat, so viele Publikationen als möglich angemessen zu erschließen, um thematische Recherchen erfolgreich zu unterstützen. Since the extension of the legal deposit mandate to so-called non-physical publications in 2006, the Deutsche Nationalbibliothek (DNB) has to deal with the challenge of finding new ways to create bibliographic metadata. This is due to the growing amount of publications and their increasing diversity. Consequently, in the area of subject cataloguing in DNB, intellectual cataloguing must be complemented by additional methods. These include the development and implementation of automated procedures for classification and indexing as well as the use of third party data or the production of subject data via mappings. All this has effects on the workflows, tools and standards for subject cataloguing and data formats. DNB aims at a concept for subject cataloguing which will make it possible to catalogue as many publications as possible in an appropriate way in order to successfully support topical searches

Temperature and size-dependent suppression of Auger recombination in quantum-confined lead salt nanowires

description: Auger recombination (AR) of the ground biexciton state in quantum-confined lead salt nanowires (NWs) with a strong coupling between the conduction and the valence bands is shown to be strongly suppressed, and only excited biexciton states contribute to Auger decay. The AR rate is predicted to be greatly reduced when temperature or the NW radius are decreased, and the effect is explained by decrease in both the population of excited biexciton states and overlap of phonon-broadened single- and biexciton states. Suppression of AR of multiexciton states exhibiting strong radiative decay makes obviously lead salt NWs a subject of special interest for numerous lasing applications.

Transverse-momentum resummation for gaugino-pair production at the LHC
Creators: name: Debove, Jonathan
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We present a first precision analysis of the transverse-momentum spectrum of gaugino pairs produced at the LHC with center-of-mass energies of 10 or 14 TeV. Our calculation is based on a universal resummation formalism at next-to-leading logarithmic accuracy, which is consistently matched to the perturbative prediction at O(alpha_s). Numerical results are given for the ``gold-plated'' associated production of neutralinos and charginos for a typical benchmark point in the constrained Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We show that the matched resummation results differ considerably from the Monte Carlo predictions employed traditionally in experimental analyses. We also investigate in detail the theoretical uncertainties coming from scale and parton-density function variations and non-perturbative effects.

HD 209621: Abundances of neutron-capture elements

Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: High resolution spectra obtained from the Subaru Telescope High Dispersion Spectrograph have been used to update the stellar atmospheric parameters and metallicity of the star HD 209621. We have derived a metallicity of [Fe/H] = -1.93 for this star, and have found a large enhancement of carbon and of heavy elements, with respect to iron. Updates on the elemental abundances of four s-process elements (Y, Ce, Pr, Nd) along with the first estimates of abundances for a number of other heavy elements (Sr, Zr, Ba, La, Sm, Eu, Er, Pb) are reported. The stellar atmospheric parameters, the effective temperature, Teff, and the surface gravity, log g (4500 K, 2.0), are determined from LTE analysis using model atmospheres. Estimated [Ba/Eu] = +0.35, places the star in the group of CEMP-(r+s) stars; however, the s-elements abundance pattern seen in HD 209621 is characteristic of CH stars; notably, the 2nd-peak s-process elements are more enhanced than the first peak s-process elements. HD 209621 is also found to show a large enhancement of the 3rd-peak s-process element lead (Pb) with [Pb/Fe] = +1.88. The relative contributions of the two neutron-capture processes, r- and s- to the observed abundances are examined using a parametric model based analysis, that hints that the neutron-capture elements in HD 209621 primarily originate in s-process.

A Genetic, Transcriptomic and Phenotypic Analysis of the Recipient Cell During Bacterial Conjugation
Creators: name: WILLIAMS, GALAIN CALIN
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2023
Subjects: classificationCode: 310701
subject: Bacteriology

description: The introduction of antibiotics revolutionised our ability to treat bacterial infections, but yet within less than a century resistance to virtually all classes of antibiotics has emerged. This has occurred because bacterial cells can take evolutionary shortcuts by sharing genes with one another in a process called bacterial conjugation. Conjugation has underpinned the spread of antibiotic resistance amongst bacteria, and yet it remains poorly understood. In this thesis, specific bacterial factors which decide whether or not bacterial cells engage in gene sharing were discovered which may be targetable for the future development of novel drugs and therapeutics.

description: Quantum corrections of certain types and relevant in certain regimes can be summarised in terms of an effective action calculable, in principle, from the underlying theory. The demands of symmetries, local form of terms and dimensional considerations limit the form of the effective action to a great extent leaving only the numerical coefficients to distinguish different underlying theories. The effective action can be restricted to particular symmetry sectors to obtain the corresponding, {\em reduced effective action}. Alternatively, one can also quantize a classically (symmetry) reduced theory and obtain the corresponding effective action. These two effective actions can be compared. As an example, we compare the effective action(s) known in isotropic loop quantum cosmology with the Lovelock actions, as well as with more general actions, specialized to homogeneous isotropic space-times and find that the $\barμ$-scheme is singled out.

Year: 2015

description: Seit mehreren Jahren betreiben Hochschulbibliotheken Publikationsfonds, um Open-Access-Artikelgebühren, Article Processing Charges, für die Autorinnen und Autoren ihrer Einrichtungen zu übernehmen. Der dynamische Anstieg der Open-Access-Publikationen in den letzten Jahren wirft die Frage auf, ob die derzeitigen Verfahren zwischen Verlagen und wissenschaftlichen Einrichtungen stabil genug sind und bei einer vollständigen Umstellung auf Open Access skalieren. Die Max Planck Digital Library übernimmt derzeit jährlich zentral Gebühren für etwa 600 Open-Access-Artikel aus der Max-Planck-Gesellschaft. Der Beitrag gibt einen Überblick über die strategischen Hintergründe dieser zentralen Kostenübernahme und zeigt anschließend die einzelnen Prozessschritte sowie die Hürden hierbei auf. Die größten Desiderate im Hinblick auf die Etablierung effizienter und nachhaltiger Prozesse sind optimierte Artikel-Einreichungssysteme, eine bessere Autorenidentifizierung sowie ein vereinheitlichtes, verbessertes Reporting. Dedicated funds for Open Access publishing have been a strategic instrument at German university libraries for some years. The dynamically growing number of Open Access publications raises the question whether the processes for handling article processing charges (APC) between libraries and publishers are organized sustainably enough to support a full transition to Open Access. On behalf of Max Planck researchers, the Max Planck Digital Library centrally processes about 600 invoices for Open Access articles per year. This paper explains the strategic background and also describes the individual steps which are necessary for assuming charges centrally and the barriers which can emerge during this process. In order to establish smooth and scalable processes, the main desiderata are the optimization of article submitting systems, a better author identification and allocation, and improved reporting.

Metallicity of the Massive Protoplanets Around HR 8799 If Formed by Gravitational Instability
Creators: name: Helled, R.

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Earth and Planetary Astrophysics (astro-ph.EP)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The final composition of giant planets formed as a result of gravitational instability in the disk gas depends on their ability to capture solid material (planetesimals) during their 'pre-collapse' stage, when they are extended and cold, and contracting quasi-statically. The duration of the pre-collapse stage is inversely proportional roughly to the square of the planetary mass, so massive protoplanets have shorter pre-collapse timescales and therefore limited opportunity for planetesimal capture. The available accretion time for protoplanets with masses of 3, 5, 7, and 10 Jupiter masses is found to be 7.82E4, 2.62E4, 1.17E4 and 5.67E3 years, respectively. The total mass that can be captured by the protoplanets depends on the planetary mass, planetesimal size, the radial distance of the protoplanet from the parent star, and the local solid surface density. We consider three radial distances, 24, 38, and 68 AU, similar to the radial distances of the planets in the system HR 8799, and estimate the mass of heavy elements that can be accreted. We find that for the planetary masses usually adopted for the HR 8799 system, the amount of heavy elements accreted by the planets is small, leaving them with nearly stellar compositions.

Their orbital elements exhibit very small dispersion in the mentioned time frame.

description: This thesis utilises super-resolution microscopy to visualise the spatial organisation of the nucleus in immune T cells. It identifies that the nucleus is remodelled and reconfigured as it transitions from a naive T cell to a killer T cell, which clears the infection, and a memory T cell, that provides long lasting protection. Only through understanding how the immune response works, can we start to modify and enhance it to improve protection from infections.

description: We present a detailed spectral study (photoionization modelling and variability) of the "Big Dipper" 4U 1624-490 based on a \chandra-High Energy Transmission Gratings Spectrometer (HETGS) observation over the $\sim76$ ks binary orbit of 4U 1624-490. While the continuum spectrum can be modeled using a blackbody plus power-law, a slightly better fit is obtained using a single $Γ=2.25$ power-law partially (71%) covered by a local absorber of column density $N_{\rm H, Local}=8.1_{-0.6}^{+0.7}\times 10^{22} \rm cm^{-2}$. The data show a possible quasi-sinusoidal modulation with period $43_{-9}^{+13}$ ks that might be due to changes in local obscuration. Photoionization modeling with the {\sc xstar} code and variability studies of the observed strong \ion{Fe}{25} and \ion{Fe}{26} absorption lines point to a two-temperature plasma for their origin: a highly ionized component of ionization parameter $ξ_{\rm hot} \approx 10^{4.3} {\rm ergs cm s^{-1}}$ ($T\sim 3.0\times 10^{6}$ K) associated with an extended accretion disk corona of radius $R \sim3\times10^{10}$ cm, and a less ionized more variable component of $ξ\approx 10^{3.4} {\rm ergs cm s^{-1}}$ ($T\sim 1.0\times 10^{6}$ K) and $\rm ξ\approx 10^{3.1} ergs cm s^{-1}$ ($T\sim 0.9\times 10^{6}$ K) coincident with the accretion disk rim. We use this, with the observed \ion{Fe}{25} and \ion{Fe}{26} absorption line variations (in wavelength, strength, and width) to construct a viewing geometry that is mapped to changes in plasma conditions over the 4U 1624-490 orbital period.

description: We present mid-infrared (8-33 micron) observations of the binary L5-Trojan system (617) Patroclus-Menoetius before, during, and after two shadowing events, using the Infrared Spectrograph (IRS) on board the Spitzer Space Telescope.F or the first time, we effectively observe changes in asteroid surface temperature in real time, allowing the thermal inertia to be determined very directly. A new detailed binary thermophysical model is presented which accounts for the system's known mutual orbit, arbitrary component shapes, and thermal conduction in the presence of eclipses. We obtain two local thermal-inertia values, representative of the respective shadowed areas: 21+/14 MKS and 6.4+/-1.6 MKS. The average thermal inertia is estimated to be 20+/-15 MKS, potentially with significant surface heterogeneity. This first thermal-inertia measurement for a Trojan asteroid indicates a surface covered in fine regolith. The diameters of Patroclus and Menoetius are 106 +/- 11 and 98+/-10 km, respectively, in agreement with previous findings. Taken together with the system's known total mass, this implies a bulk mass density of 1.08 +/-0.33 g/cm3, significantly below the mass density of L4-Trojan asteroid (624) Hektor and suggesting a bulk composition dominated by water ice.

description: This study examines strategies that support microbial life in environments with the harshest conditions and little nutrients. In environments such as Antarctic desert, bacteria rely on continually scavenging trace amount of hydrogen from the air to flourish. Analogous to a mini hydrogen powered car, they consume atmospheric hydrogen to power carbon fixation for growth and produce water to maintain hydration. Through living on air, these microbes substitute the role of plants as primary producers. This finding refines the understanding of minimal requirements for life on Earth. Correspondingly, the discovery of these surprising lifestyles informs the search for extra-terrestrial life.

description: In the context of the finite elasticity theory, we consider a model for compressible solids called 'compressible neo-Hookean material'. We show how finite-amplitude inhomogeneous plane wave solutions and finite-amplitude unattenuated solutions can combine to form a finite-amplitude Love wave. We take a layer of finite thickness overlying a solid half-space, both made of different prestressed compressible neo-Hookean materials. We derive an exact solution of the equations of motion and boundary conditions and also obtain results for the energy density and the energy flux of the waves. Finally, we investigate the special case when the interface between the layer and the substrate is in a principal plane of the prestrain. A numerical example is given.

description: This thesis focuses on accelerating the process of data acquisition to quantitative analysis by at least 10 fold for lattice light-sheet microscopy that resulting in very large-sized data containing complex phenomenologies that require sophisticated analysis. The various steps of preprocessing, segmentation and analysis are integrated into a single workflow with intuitive user interfaces on both open source Napari and Virtual Reality. This allows researchers to perform all steps of LLSM experiments - acquisition to analysis, without requiring any specialist skills. The implementation of the described workflow is expected to accelerate biological discovery with LLSM by overcoming the current bottlenecks in post-processing.

Causality in science
Creators: name: Kampe, Cornelius
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The concept of causality understood as law-like regularity, pervades science from the applied or practical to the theoretical sciences, from its early days to the present. But, workers like Russell and Hanson have correctly observed that explicit mention of causes tends to disappear in advanced and strictly theoretical sciences like physics and gravitational astronomy. The concept of prediction or explanation in accordance with general laws, replaces the earlier, causal concepts. The limiting form of this process is a science where Hempel-Oppenheim explanation is achieved. Here the controversial symmetry between explanations and predictions, as implied by Hempel's view, does exist even if it does not in a more primitive scientific work. Only quantum mechanics casts doubts on this thesis, but contrary to views advanced by Hanson, the symmetry thesis can be extended into that discipline.
Glucocorticoid Induced Leucine Zipper: Gatekeeper for CD8+ T cell activation and anti-viral responses

description: Killer T cells provide defence against viruses and cancer. In some people, they are inappropriately activated and direct their killing functions to target healthy tissues. This drives autoimmune diseases such as Type 1 Diabetes. However, there are mechanisms in place to ensure that killer T cells only become activated in appropriate situations such as viral infections. This thesis has examined the role of a molecule called the Glucocorticoid Induced Leucine Zipper (GILZ) in killer T cell biology. I have shown that GILZ is a crucial checkpoint for killer T cell activation and must be switched off in order to generate appropriate responses against influenza virus.

description: We prove that convolution with affine arclength measure on the curve parametrized by $h(t) := (t,t^2,...,t^n)$ is a bounded operator from $L^p(\mathbb{R}^n)$ to $L^q(\mathbb{R}^n)$ for the full conjectured range of exponents, improving on a result due to M. Christ. We also obtain nearly sharp Lorentz space bounds.

description: Die Zeitschriftendatenbank (ZDB) bietet als weltweit größte Datenbank für fortlaufende Sammelwerke umfangreiche Informationen zu mehr als 60000 Zeitungen, die in deutschen und österreichischen Bibliotheken vorgehalten werden. Im Rahmen eines von der Deutschen Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) geförderten Projekts soll ein neuer ZDB-Webkatalog entstehen, der bessere Unterstützung für eine Vielzahl von Recherchen bietet als der aktuelle ZDB-OPAC und mittels interaktiver Visualisierungen komplexe Zusammenhänge zwischen verschiedenen Zeitungen sichtbar werden lässt. Dieser Beitrag informiert über das Projekt zur ZDB-Weiterentwicklung und gibt Einblicke in einige zentrale Funktionalitäten des zukünftigen ZDB-Webkatalogs, auf die sich Wissenschaftler/innen, Bibliothekar/innen und Endnutzer/innen 2015 freuen können. The German Union Catalogue of Serials (Zeitschriftendatenbank, ZDB) is the world’s largest dedicated database for serials of all kinds. It contains extensive information about more than 60.000 newspapers being held in about 4.400 German and Austrian libraries. In a project funded by the German Research Foundation, a new ZDB web catalogue is being created which will provide better support for a wider range of newspaper search functions than the current ZDB OPAC. Interactive graphic representations allow for intuitive and clear visualisations of complex interconnections between different newspapers. The paper describes the ZDB project and highlights some significant features of the forthcoming ZDB web catalogue which will be available in 2015.

description: In this paper, the isothermal plasma wave properties in the neighborhood of the pair production region for the Kerr black hole magnetosphere are discussed. We have considered the Fourier analyzed form of the perturbed general relativistic magnetohydrodynamical equations whose determinant leads to a dispersion relation. For the special scenario, the $x$-component of the complex wave vectors are numerically calculated. Respective components of the propagation vector, attenuation vector, phase and group velocities are shown in graphs. We have particularly investigated the existence of a Veselago medium and wave behavior (modes of waves dispersion

description: A neutron star low-mass X-ray binary is a binary stellar system with a neutron star and a low-mass companion star rotating around each other. In this system the neutron star accretes mass from the companion, and as this matter falls into the deep potential well of the neutron star, the gravitational potential energy is released primarily in the X-ray wavelengths. Such a source was first discovered in X-rays in 1962, and this discovery formally gave birth to the "X-ray astronomy". In the subsequent decades, our knowledge of these sources has increased enormously by the observations with several X-ray space missions. Here we give a brief overview of our current understanding of the X-ray observational aspects of these systems.
