description: The interior structure of the Sun can be studied with great accuracy using observations of its oscillations, similar to seismology of the Earth. Precise agreement between helioseismological measurements and predictions of theoretical solar models has been a triumph of modern astrophysics (Bahcall et al. 2005). However, a recent downward revision by 25-35% of the solar abundances of light elements such as C, N, O and Ne (Asplund et al. 2004) has broken this accordance: models adopting the new abundances incorrectly predict the depth of the convection zone, the depth profiles of sound speed and density, and the helium abundance (Basu Antia 2004, Bahcall et al. 2005). The discrepancies are far beyond the uncertainties in either the data or the model predictions (Bahcall et al. 2005b). Here we report on neon abundances relative to oxygen measured in a sample of nearby solar-like stars from their X-ray spectra. They are all very similar and substantially larger than the recently revised solar value. The neon abundance in the Sun is quite poorly determined. If the Ne/O abundance in these stars is adopted for the Sun the models are brought back into agreement with helioseismology measurements (Antia Basu 2005, Bahcall et al. 2005c).

description: Due to the presence of the quantum correlation between the pair-produced D0 and D0bar from the decay of the psi(3770), the time-integrated single and double tag decay rates depend on charm mixing amplitudes, doubly-Cabibbo-suppressed amplitudes, and the relative strong phase, delta, between D0 and D0bar decays to identical final states. Using 281 pb^-1 of integrated luminosity collected with the CLEO-c detector on the psi(3770) resonance, we measure the absolute branching fractions of D0 decays to K-pi+, CP eigenstates, and semileptonic final states to determine cos(delta) for K-pi+ and to limit the mixing amplitude y.

description: We compute correlators of two heavy and two light operators in the strong coupling and large $c$ limit of the D1D5 CFT which is dual to weakly coupled AdS$_3$ gravity. The light operators have dimension two and are scalar descendants of the chiral primaries considered in arXiv:1705.09250, while the heavy operators belong to an ensemble of Ramond-Ramond ground states. We derive a general expression for these correlators when the heavy states in the ensemble are close to the maximally spinning ground state. For a particular family of heavy states we also provide a result valid for any value of the spin. In all cases we find that the correlators depend non-trivially on the CFT moduli and are not determined by the symmetries of the theory, however they have the properties expected for correlators among pure states in a unitary theory, in particular they do not decay at large Lorentzian times.

The mode splitting in transmission spectra of phase-sensitive optical parametric amplifier is observed. Especially, we show a very narrow dip and peak, which are the shape of $δ$ function, appear in the transmission profile. The origin of the coherence phenomenon in this system is the interference between the harmonic pump field and the subharmonic seed field in cooperation with dissipation of the cavity.

description: The multifunctional Bag-1 protein, which interacts with critical interaction partners is involved in the cell fate decision machinery. Elevated levels of Bag-1 were generally associated with breast cancer progression, development, and aggressiveness. According to our previous findings, Bag-1 silencing enhanced the apoptotic efficiency of conventional classical chemotherapeutic drugs, which are used in the treatment of metastatic breast cancer cases. Although there are a number of studies about the regulatory role of Bag-1 with its interacting partners in cell biology, there is still limited knowledge about the biological aspect of homozygote deletion of Bag-1 in breast cancer cells. The purpose of the study is to clarify the potential molecular alterations in Bag-1 knockout (KO) cells related to cell survival mechanism compared to wt or Bag-1 overexpressed (OE) MCF-7 cells. For this purpose, we generated a stable CRISPR/Cas9 mediated Bag-1 KO MCF-7 cell line model. Validation and characterization studies confirmed that Bag-1 KO cells have different cellular morphology and clonogenicity with a diminished cell proliferation ratio. Bag-1 KO cells showed active PI3K/Akt signaling, which caused disruption of actin organization and immature mesenchymal characteristics. Akt hyperactivation and mesenchymal transition with the subsequent downstream cytoskeleton disruption were prevented by complementation of each Bag-1 isoform to the cells. The results of this study emphasized that Bag-1 is required for actin-mediated cytoskeleton organization under control of Akt signaling.
Poisson-Lie duals of the eta deformed symmetric space sigma model

description: Poisson-Lie dualising the eta deformation of the G/H symmetric space sigma model with respect to the simple Lie group G is conjectured to give an analytic continuation of the associated lambda deformed model. In this paper we investigate when the eta deformed model can be dualised with respect to a subgroup G_0 of G. Starting from the first-order action on the complexified group and integrating out the degrees of freedom associated to different subalgebras, we find it is possible to dualise when G_0 is associated to a sub-Dynkin diagram. Additional U_1 factors built from the remaining Cartan generators can also be included. The resulting construction unifies both the Poisson-Lie dual with respect to G and the complete abelian dual of the eta deformation in a single framework, with the integrated algebras unimodular in both cases. We speculate that extending these results to the path integral formalism may provide an explanation for why the eta deformed AdS_5 x S^5 superstring is not one-loop Weyl invariant, that is the couplings do not solve the equations of type IIB supergravity, yet its complete abelian dual and the lambda deformed model are.

description: We attempt to identify all microlensing parallax events for which the parallax fit improves Δχ^2 > 100 relative to a standard microlensing model. We outline a procedure to identify three types of discrete degeneracies (including a new one that we dub the ``ecliptic degeneracy'') and find many new degenerate solutions in 16 previously published and 6 unpublished events. Only four events have one unique solution and the other 18 events have a total of 44 solutions. Our sample includes three previously identified black-hole (BH) candidates. We consider the newly discovered degenerate solutions and determine the relative likelihood that each of these is a BH. We find the lens of event MACHO-99-BLG-22 is a strong BH candidate (78%), event MACHO-96-BLG-5 is a marginal BH candidate (37%), and MACHO-98-BLG-6 is a weak BH candidate (2.2%). The lens of event OGLE-2003-BLG-84 may be a Jupiter-mass free-floating planet candidate based on a weak 3 sigma detection of finite-source effects. We find that event MACHO-179-A is a brown dwarf candidate within ~100 pc of the Sun, mostly due to its very small projected Einstein radius, \tilde r_E = 0.23+-0.05 AU. As expected, these microlensing parallax events are biased toward lenses that are heavier and closer than average. These events were examined for xallarap (or binary-source motion), which can mimic parallax. We find that 23% of these events are strongly affected by xallarap.

description: The same set of physically motivated axioms can be used to construct both the classical ensemble Hamilton-Jacobi equation and Schrodingers equation. Crucial roles are played by the assumptions of universality and simplicity (Occam's Razor) which restrict the number and type of of arbitrary constants that appear in the equations of motion. In this approach, non-relativistic quantum theory is seen as the unique single parameter extension of the classical ensemble dynamics. The method is contrasted with other related constructions in the literature and some consequences of relaxing the axioms are also discussed: for example, the appearance of nonlinear higher-derivative corrections possibly related to gravity and spacetime fluctuations. Finally, some open research problems within this approach are highlighted.

Three routes to jet collimation by the Balbus-Hawley magnetorotational instability
Creators: name: Williams, Peter Todd
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Three completely different lines of work have recently led to the conclusion that the magnetorotational instability (MRI) may create a hoop-stress that collimates jets. One argument is based upon consideration that magnetohydrodynamic turbulence, in general, and turbulence driven by the MRI, in particular, is more nearly viscoelastic than it is viscous. Another argument is based upon the dispersion relation for the MRI in the context of 1D simulations of core collapse. Yet a third argument rests in the results of direct numerical magnetohydrodynamic simulations of collapsars and thick accretion flows. I elaborate on my previous work regarding the first argument above and I briefly discuss how these three sets of results are all related. I also discuss the different roles played by the magnetic tension and the magnetic pressure within the context of this work. I point out that this leads to consideration of the normal stress difference between the hoop stress and the radial stress, in preference to a focus on just the hoop stress itself. Additionally, I argue that simulations of thick accretion flows and collapsars are not self-consistent if they include a phenomenological model for an MRI-induced viscous stress but disregard these other MRI-induced stress components. I comment briefly on the RHESSI observation of polarization in the gamma-ray burst GRB0212206. I argue that this polarization is consistent with a tangled field, and does not require a large-scale organized field. Finally I suggest that the role of magnetic fields in creating jets, as described here, should be understood not to work within the confines of magnetocentrifugal models of jets, but rather as an alternative to them.

description: The continuous growth in energy demand together with the awareness of greenhouse gases and their implication on climate change has pushed our society to design new environmentally sustainable sources of energy. An example of this is the rapid growth that wind and solar energy production has experienced, thanks to the installation of large wind and solar farms. As a result of their large dimensions and their corresponding mechanisms to harvest energy, these energy systems are prone to interact with the atmospheric boundary layer, which is defined as the lowest part of the troposphere that is directly influenced by the presence of the earth surface, and therefore, it directly influences the energy harvesting of large scale wind farms. Hence, understanding the interaction mechanisms between wind farms and the atmospheric boundary layer is of crucial importance to properly determine their optimal performance. Specifically, this work focuses on the development of new understanding regarding wind energy and its interaction with the atmospheric boundary layer, with the main goal to help in developing more efficient wind energy harvesting systems. In detail the objectives of my PhD work are: (i) create new understanding regarding wind turbines' inflow as it relates with time alignment of the turbines; (ii) determine the dominant turbine wake recovery processes under different atmospheric stratification conditions; (iii) develop a useful analytical predictor model to estimate large scale wind farms power output. These objectives will be met through four specific tasks that comprise Chapters 2 to 5 of this dissertation. High-resolution numerical simulations of the atmospheric boundary layer are used in all tasks.
Jun Signaling During Drosophila Development
Creators: name: Jud, Molly Christine
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2019

description: Jun N-terminal kinase (JNK) signaling is a key modulator of development and disease in all multicellular organisms. One process in which the consequences of both gain and loss of JNK signaling can be monitored is embryonic dorsal closure (DC) in the fruit fly, Drosophila melanogaster. DC occurs midway through embryogenesis; it is the process by which the lateral epidermis expands bilaterally to meet and fuse at the dorsal midline, thereby encasing the entire embryo in epidermis. JNK signaling in leading edge (LE) cells (the dorsal-most row of epidermis) initiates closure. My studies of a novel but conserved JNK signaling antagonist, Raw, have provided several unique insights into: 1) Jun function as a component of the AP-1 transcription factor, and 2) the role of the epidermis as a signaling template mediating development of the epidermis and adjacent tissues. My graduate work has built upon the demonstration that raw is required to prevent promiscuous JNK signaling in the embryonic epidermis just prior to DC. I have shown that raw is necessary for proper accumulation of Jun in LE cells required to define the LE, which functions as a signaling center required for epidermal closure as well as for underlying heart development. I have gone on to show that Jun accumulates at previously unrecognized sites in the embryonic epidermis, including tracheal pits and solitary epidermal cells lying directly above the peripheral nervous system (PNS). Jun activity is required for tracheal and nervous system defects observed in mutants of two JNK signaling antagonists, raw and rib, and indicates that cell signals within and to an adjacent tissue are integral to proper development. I have found that the epidermis iv plays an instructive role during development, and results from my work have led to insights into how JNK signaling centers in the epidermis coordinate morphological processes. As Raw is a novel but conserved JNK signaling antagonist, I have built and tested models of its molecular mechanism of action as well. Bolstering conclusions of previous studies of mammalian c-Jun in cell culture, my data indicate that N-terminal phosphorylation is not an on/off switch, but rather it increases Jun stability for its activity as a component of the AP-1 transcription factor. raw mutants exhibit both high levels of Jun protein and an accumulation of phosphorylated Jun (P-Jun), and my data point to a role for Raw in effecting the Jun:P-Jun ratio via mediation of Jun degradation. In deciphering the mechanism of Raw function, we are gaining significant new insights into previously unrecognized mechanisms of JNK signaling regulation. Understanding these mechanisms will be important for dissecting the etiology of developmental abnormalities and diseases, such as cancer, which hinge on the Goldilocks effect, having just the right amount of signaling at just the right time.

description: Here we describe a simple mechanical procedure for compiling a quantum gate network into the natural gates (pulses and delays) for an Ising quantum computer. The aim is not necessarily to generate the most efficient pulse sequence, but rather to develop an efficient compilation algorithm that can be easily implemented in large spin systems. The key observation is that it is not always necessary to refocus all the undesired couplings in a spin system. Instead the coupling evolution can simply be tracked and then corrected at some later time. Although described within the language of NMR the algorithm is applicable to any design of quantum computer based on Ising couplings.

The Last Battle Royale: The Catalyst of Lepanto and the Terminal Decline of Regnal Sacrality
Creators: name: Woolley, Spencer Curtis
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2019
Subjects: World History

description: As the echo of the last cannon volleys faded into the smoke-filled breeze on the seventh of October 1571, the Battle of Lepanto evaporated from a concrete event and coalesced into a cloud of myth, repeating the same phenomenon of the Battle of Salamis some two thousand years before. Contemporary European chroniclers of the battle, followed by scholars through the middle of the twentieth century, placed Lepanto as a pivotal moment in Mediterranean history, a point at which everything changed. But twentieth and twenty-first-century studies highlighted the political and military irrelevance of the battle - the dread of the Grand Turk's navy remained. This thesis drives off the clouds of myth, whether from the fifteenth or twenty-first centuries, and gives Lepanto a new analysis. The Battle of Lepanto marked a sea-change in Mediterranean history, but not in the traditional military or political paradigms. Rather, the Battle of Lepanto heralded a shift in European consciousness and conversation regarding sacred kingship. Regnal sacrality receives definition in the scholarship of Ernst Kantorowicz and Francis Oakley, and then is centered in a world-historical context, including a new Taxonomy of Dominion. Both the Habsburg and Ottoman empires are examined, through that Taxonomy and in the build-up to Lepanto, culminating not in the heroics or the bloodshed, but rather in the philosophies of government espoused by Jean Bodin and Thomas Hobbes. Though the Battle of Lepanto received slight mention in either man's published works, it nevertheless looms like a low-hanging fog, permeating and surrounding their ideas of the Divine Right of Kings, and the Social Compact, respectively. The Battle of Lepanto did not alter fifteenth century political maneuvering or military gamesmanship in any significant manner, but it did catalyze a profound change in European discourses about authority, power, and presence. After Lepanto, the divine slowly receded from politics, first to a king invested with a divine right to rule, as Bodin advocated, and then to societal agreement, articulated by Hobbes, that eliminated the vox dei, and placed the vox populi supreme.
Late Ottoman Muslim Women of Letters Vis-a-Vis the Gendered Discourse of "the New Ottoman Muslim Woman"

description: This dissertation offers a study of the configurations of the idealized, new female gender identity in the public discourse within the late 19 th- and early 20th- century Ottoman Muslim urban context and investigates Ottoman Muslim women of letters' involvement in this discourse targeting their own images and presences. The new woman was configured as both the guardian of native values and a potent agent of social development. This study contends that women's increasing participation in public writing and their diversified literary input on issues related to female modesty and feminine/domestic identity created a collective agency in this venue, complicating and unsettling the constructions of the new woman's identity. Women with varying alliances to Islam, nationalism and modernity had changing interpretations of progress and cultural integrity. It brought about contestations, more often than not, over a range of conditions and practices, including Muslim women's attire, their appearance in public places, at gatherings, at work and school, with regard to its propriety for the idealized Ottoman Muslim womanhood. The discussion in this work also speaks accordingly to the general issue of subjectivity, in the face of dominant ideas, identities and projects that attempt to shape and represent individuals. A more inclusive picture of women's intellectual existence in history, in terms of ideological attitudes, and of social status and prominence, is offered based on (re)examination of primary sources, to counter the different ways of silencing and the avoiding of acknowledgment in the historiographies of the period.

description: A mathematical model of the metabolic process of formation of the hemostasis in a blood-carrying vessel is constructed. As distinct from the earlier developed model of the multienzyme prostacyclin-thromboxane system of blood, this model includes, for the first time, the influence of the level of "bad cholesterol", i.e., low-density lipoproteins (LDLs), on the hemostasis. The conditions, under which the self-organization of the system appears, and the modes of autooscillations and chaos in the metabolic process, which affects the formation of hemostasis and the development of thrombophilia, are found. With the aid of a phase-parametric diagram, the scenario of their appearance is studied. The bifurcations of doubling of a period and the transition to chaotic oscillations as a result of the intermittence are found. The obtained strange attractors are formed due to a mixing funnel. The full spectra of Lyapunov's indices, KS-entropies, "predictability horizons", and Lyapunov's dimensions of strange attractors are calculated. The reasons for a change in the cyclicity of the given metabolic process, its stability, and the physiological manifestation in the blood-carrying system are discussed. The role of physiologically active substances in a decrease in the level of cholesterol in blood vessels is estimated.

description: This study explored the characteristics of adolescents and young adults referred for testing to rule out Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) while admitted to a psychiatric hospital for inpatient or day treatment between 2012 and 2017. Data regarding social-developmental, psychiatric, and ASD-symptom variables were collected from an archival database. Seventy-five files belonging to individuals between the ages of 13 and 25 at the time of admission were included. Forty-six participants (61%) were male, and 29 participants (39%) were female. Forty-two patients (56%) were diagnosed with ASD at time of discharge, and 33 patients (44%) were not. Regression analyses were conducted to compare the ASD and non-ASD groups. Participants in the non-ASD group were more likely to be the first-born child in their family and had a greater number of symptoms related to obsessive-compulsiveness and psychosis. Individuals in the ASD group were more likely to use stereotyped or idiosyncratic language, display poor social response, use few emphatic and/or emotional gestures, and demonstrate limited acceptance of responsibility for their own behavior. Participants diagnosed with ASD were shown to be more impaired in terms parent-reported social awareness and self-reported social motivation compared to those in the non-ASD group. Qualitatively, a discharge diagnosis of ADHD was common for the ASD group, while substance use disorders were prevalent in the non-ASD group. For the total sample, the most common reason for hospital admission was risk of self-harm. Individuals in both groups had extensive psychiatric histories and had previously accessed various treatments. Most participants had been tried on four or more psychotropic medications, and nearly half received three or more diagnoses at discharge. The most common diagnoses both prior to admission and at discharge were depressive and anxiety disorders. These patients were typically referred for ASD evaluation due to social interaction difficulties and rigidity. The retrospective design of this study presents multiple limitations. The data collected were limited to the information available in patients' charts, and the researchers were unable to address inconsistencies in these files. Future studies using prospective designs would allow researchers to obtain more detailed information and clarification on study variables.

description: This article examines the historiography related to the 1876 founding of Sapporo Agricultural College, the first institution of its kind in Japan. Focusing specifically on the involvement of William Smith Clark, who previously served as the president of the Massachusetts Agricultural College, it argues that the nascent imperial ambitions harboured by both the United States and Japan are essential to a full understanding of Sapporo's founding, curriculum and subsequent history. Drawing on both primary and secondary sources as well as theoretical perspectives on empire, this article depicts Sapporo as one small part of a larger campaign of westernisation.

description: The weak nucleon axial-vector form factor for quasi-elastic interactions is determined using neutrino interaction data from the K2K Scintillating Fiber detector in the neutrino beam at KEK. More than 12,000 events are analyzed, of which half are charged-current quasi-elastic interactions nu-mu n to mu- p occurring primarily in oxygen nuclei. We use a relativistic Fermi gas model for oxygen and assume the form factor is approximately a dipole with one parameter, the axial vector mass M_A, and fit to the shape of the distribution of the square of the momentum transfer from the nucleon to the nucleus. Our best fit result for M_A = 1.20 \pm 0.12 GeV. Furthermore, this analysis includes updated vector form factors from recent electron scattering experiments and a discussion of the effects of the nucleon momentum on the shape of the fitted distributions.

description: Ethnicity is a key demographic attribute of human beings and it plays a vital role in automatic facial recognition and have extensive real world applications such as Human Computer Interaction (HCI); demographic based classification; biometric based recognition; security and defense to name a few. In this paper we present a novel approach for extracting ethnicity from the facial images. The proposed method makes use of a pre trained Convolutional Neural Network (CNN) to extract the features and then Support Vector Machine (SVM) with linear kernel is used as a classifier. This technique uses translational invariant hierarchical features learned by the network, in contrast to previous works, which use hand crafted features such as Local Binary Pattern (LBP); Gabor etc. Thorough experiments are presented on ten different facial databases which strongly suggest that our approach is robust to different expressions and illuminations conditions. Here we consider ethnicity classification as a three class problem including Asian, African-American and Caucasian. Average classification accuracy over all databases is 98.28%, 99.66% and 99.05% for Asian, African-American and Caucasian respectively.

The journey of liberalism in Egypt in the twentieth century: From Ahmad Amin to Husayn Ahmad Amin
Creators: name: Mizutani, Makoto
Publisher: name: University of Utah
Year: 2019
Subjects: Middle Eastern history

description: Ahmad Amin (1886-1954) was a well established historian and a liberal thinker on the issue of cultural reform. His son, Husayn (1932-), is also widely known for his argument against the Islamic radicalism, particularly from the angle of a historian and a judiciary. Their roles and contributions could be assessed in their respective societies, just as they could be evaluated together as in a journey of liberalism. The manner in which various discussions were carried out by the two differs on each topic; the father elaborated a lot on the concept of religious belief, whereas the son seemed to have relied upon it. The son was critical about a historical role played by Sufism but he also appreciated highly its contribution before the tenth century, thus avoiding a clash with the father. Both the father and the son tend to take a position of the middle way on various questions, including that of the application of the Shari'a, stressing a vital importance of the personal interpretation or ijtihad. As viewed from a broader spectrum, the son reflects the legacy from the father as a liberal, though its connotation is somewhat different from the Western context. Also both are students of history in their zeal to maintain an objective stand toward historical events. At the same time, they reflect the change of their respective times, thus composing a paradigm shift: the father's Arab-Islamic perspective and the son's one nation perspective, after all Arab states are sovereign and independent by the end of the twentieth century.

description: Business model (BM) development is crucial for success, helping identify strengths, weaknesses, and opportunities. Frameworks like Business Model Canvas and Lean Startup Canvas aid in this. BM development aligns closely with strategy, integrating business processes and IT. Key components include Strategic Analysis, Ideas Generation, Hypotheses Validation & Pilot Testing, and Implementation & Adaptation.

Strategic Analysis assesses internal and external factors with tools like PESTLE and SWOT analyses.

Ideas Generation fosters innovation through knowledge sharing and brainstorming.

Hypotheses Validation & Pilot Testing ensure viability through commercialization and value co-creation.

Implementation & Adaptation involves iterative rollout and feedback integration.

BM innovation requires strategic thinking and adaptability for long-term value. Projects like XGain exemplify the application of innovative BMs to address societal challenges and foster rural development.

 

This work has been developed in the context of the XGain project (101060294). XGain fosters a sustainable, balanced, and inclusive development of rural, coastal and urban areas by facilitating access to relevant stakeholders to a comprehensive inventory of smart XG, last-mile connectivity and edge computing solutions, and of related assessment methods.

description: The Shared Humanity Module (SH Module), conceptualised and piloted in 2019, premises a socially just civil society that is able to address the humanitarian challenges of our time, and protect the rights and freedoms of all people as enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, The Bill of Rights and the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa, 1996. The Shared Humanity Module is offered as an interdisciplinary module to registered students in the 2nd-year of studies and beyond, with representation from all ten SU faculties.Kahneman (2011) states that the individual’s inherent bias and prejudiced way of seeing the world can be stemmed through the awareness of self and our role in creating the conditions for social justice or injustice to prevail. This conceptual understanding of our embodiment and personal identity as dialectically linked to our expression through actions and projects we take up creates the mechanisms to explore ways of shaping the self-awareness towards an empathic way of living and leading in a complex world.The Shared Humanity Module integrates this learning theory and methodology into the learning design so as to centre social justice at the core of the student learning journey as follows:1)The theoretical construct on the model includes the work of Paulo Freire (1970); Mezirow (2009) Kahneman (2011); Cargas et. al. (2017) and Amartya Sen’s (2005). 2)The methodological frameworks involve Critical Thinking Model of Paul and Elder (2010) and Kolb’s (2011) theory of experiential learning amongst others provides the tools for social justice praxis and practice. As an online Module the methodology comprises of 3 phases mirroring Kolb’s learning cycle as follows:Experiencing and reflecting (asynchronous on SUNLearn); Conceptualising (synchronous, live-online seminar) and Learning integration and application (asynchronous on SUNLearn).The Shared Humanity Module intentionally sets out to develop graduates with an understanding of their responsibility as citizen-leaders, as custodians of an invaluable democracy, ‘holding the state and its leadership accountable, and ensuring the country's developmental state ambitions are protected’, Khambule, (2021).The Module is set-up as a participatory action research project and we look forward to sharing the first set of research data with you at SOTL.
Joint inversion of potential field and electromagnetic data using gramian constraints

description: One of the major challenges in the interpretation of geophysical data remains the ability to jointly invert multiple geophysical datasets for self-consistent three-dimensional (3D) earth models of different physical properties. This dissertation develops a method of joint inversion of potential field and electromagnetic data using Gramian constraints. A model weighting technique was introduced to guarantee a stable and converging joint inversion process. The developed joint inversion algorithm was successfully tested in a number of model studies, where the Gramian constraints make it possible to consider both linear and nonlinear relationships between the different physical properties. This dissertation also develops a novel method of inversion of magnetic data for the magnetization vector, when remanent magnetization is present. The method is based on a new magnetic forward modeling algorithm, which uses triangular prisms of arbitrary shape in order to achieve a more accurate approximation of the topography. The inversion also includes Gramian constraints in order to obtain a robust solution of otherwise ill-posed magnetic inverse problems. Another development in this dissertation is the localized Gramian constraints, which allows one to recover multiple lithologic relationships between the different physical properties. The case study of the joint inversion of airborne magnetic and electromagnetic data in the Lac de Gras area of the Northwest Territories of Canada demonstrated how joint inversion using the localized Gramian constraints can enhance subsurface imaging of mineral targets.
Twisted Quantum Double Model of Topological Orders with Boundaries

description: We generalize the twisted quantum double model of topological orders in two dimensions to the case with boundaries by systematically constructing the boundary Hamiltonians. Given the bulk Hamiltonian defined by a gauge group $G$ and a three-cocycle in the third cohomology group of $G$ over $U(1)$, a boundary Hamiltonian can be defined by a subgroup $K$ of $G$ and a two-cochain in the second cochain group of $K$ over $U(1)$. The consistency between the bulk and boundary Hamiltonians is dictated by what we call the Frobenius condition that constrains the two-cochain given the three-cocyle. We offer a closed-form formula computing the ground state degeneracy of the model on a cylinder in terms of the input data only, which can be naturally generalized to surfaces with more boundaries. We also explicitly write down the ground-state wavefunction of the model on a disk also in terms of the input data only.

X-ray Diagnostics of Grain Depletion in Matter Accreting onto T Tauri Stars

description: Recent analysis of high resolution Chandra X-ray spectra has shown that the Ne/O abundance ratio is remarkably constant in stellar coronae. Based on this result, we point out the utility of the Ne/O ratio as a discriminant for accretion-related X-rays from T Tauri stars, and for probing the measure of grain-depletion of the accreting material in the inner disk. We apply the Ne/O diagnostic to the classical T Tauri stars BP Tau and TW Hya--the two stars found to date whose X-ray emission appears to originate, at least in part, from accretion activity. We show that TW Hya appears to be accreting material which is significantly depleted in O relative to Ne. In constrast, BP Tau has an Ne/O abundance ratio consistent with that observed for post-T Tauri stars. We interpret this result in terms of the different ages and evolutionary states of the circumstellar disks of these stars. In the young BP Tau disk (age 0.6 Myr) dust is still present near the disk corotation radius and can be ionized and accreted, re-releasing elements depleted onto grains. In the more evolved TW Hya disk (age 10 Myr), evidence points to ongoing coagulation of grains into much larger bodies, and possibly planets, that can resist the drag of inward-migrating gas, and accreting gas is consequently depleted of grain-forming elements.
