Brillouin precursors in Debye media
Creators: name: Macke, Bruno
name: Ségard, Bernard
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Optics (physics.optics)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We theoretically study the formation of Brillouin precursors in Debye media. We point out that the precursors are visible only at propagation distances such that the impulse response of the medium is essentially determined by the frequency dependence of its absorption and is practically Gaussian. By simple convolution, we then obtain explicit analytical expressions of the transmitted waves generated by reference incident waves, distinguishing precursor and main signal by a simple examination of the long-time behavior of the overall signal. These expressions are in good agreement with the signals obtained in numerical or real experiments performed on water in the radio-frequency domain and explain in particular some observed shapes of the precursor. Results are obtained for other remarkable incident waves. In addition, we show quite generally that the shape of the Brillouin precursor appearing alone at sufficiently large propagation distance and the law giving its amplitude as a function of this distance do not depend on the precise form of the incident wave but only on its integral properties. The incidence of a static conductivity of the medium is also examined and explicit analytical results are again given in the limit of weak and strong conductivities.

description: Rationale: Multiple infections with different strains of Mycobacterium tuberculosis may occur in settings where the infection pressure is high. The relevance of mixed infections for the patient, clinician, and control program remains unclear. Objectives: This study aimed to describe reinfection and mixed infection as underlying mechanisms of changing drug-susceptibility patterns in serial sputum cultures. Methods: Serial M. tuberculosis sputum cultures from patients diagnosed with multi-drug-resistant (MDR) tuberculosis were evaluated by phenotypic drug-susceptibility testing and mutation detection methods. Genotypic analysis was done by IS6110 DNA fingerprinting and a novel strain-specific polymerase chain reaction amplification method. Measurements and Main Results: DNA fingerprinting analysis of serial sputum cultures from 48 patients with MDR tuberculosis attributed 10 cases to reinfection and 1 case to mixed infection. In contrast, strain-specific polymerase chain reaction amplification analysis in 9 of the 11 cases demonstrated mixed infection in 5 cases, reinfection in 3 cases, and laboratory contamination in 1 case. Analysis of clinical data suggests that first-line therapy can select for a resistant subpopulation, whereas poor adherence or second-line therapy resulted in the reemergence of the drug-susceptible subpopulations. Conclusions: We have shown that, in some patients with MDR tuberculosis, mixed infection may be responsible for observations attributed to reinfection by DNA fingerprinting. We conclude that treatment and adherence determines which strain is dominant. We hypothesize that treatment with second-line drugs may lead to reemergence of the drug-susceptible strain in patients with mixed infection.

description: Electrons, holes, and photons in semiconductors are interacting fermions and bosons. In this system, a variety of ordered coherent phases can be formed through the spontaneous phase symmetry breaking because of their interactions. The Bose-Einstein condensation (BEC) of excitons and polaritons is one of such coherent phases, which can potentially crossover into the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) type ordered phase at high densities under quasi-equilibrium conditions, known as the BCS-BEC crossover. In contrast, one can find the semiconductor laser, superfluorescence (SF), and superradiance as relevant phenomena under nonequilibrium conditions. In this paper, we present a comprehensive generating functional theory that yields nonequilibrium Green's functions in a rigorous way. The theory gives us a starting point to discuss these phases in a unified view with a diagrammatic technique. Comprehensible time-dependent equations are derived within the Hartree-Fock approximation, which generalize the Maxwell-Semiconductor-Bloch equations under the relaxation time approximation. With the help of this formalism, we clarify the relationship among these cooperative phenomena and we show theoretically that the Fermi-edge SF is directly connected to the e-h BCS phase. We also discuss the emission spectra as well as the gain-absorption spectra.

Examining alcohol-induced neuronal acctivation using c-Fos IHC following TMT exposure in male and female rodents with a focus on the prelimbic and anterior insular cortices
Creators: name: Pitrolo, Elisabeth
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2023

description: Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) is highly comorbid with alcohol use disorder (AUD). Furthermore, data indicate the rate of comorbidity may be related to sex, as females have a higher rate of comorbid PTSD/AUD than males. Thus, the current study focuses on the neuronal response to alcohol following a stressor in males and females in two brain regions in relation to PTSD/AUD. These are the anterior insular cortex (aIC) and prelimbic cortex (PrL). The current study exposes male and female rats to 2,5-dihydro-2,4,5-trimethylthiazoline (TMT). TMT is a synthetically-made component of fox feces that produces stress-reactive behaviors in rodents and has been used to model some PTSD symptoms. Rats in the current study were exposed to TMT and then injected with alcohol two weeks later. Rats were sacrificed 90 minutes following alcohol injection. Brain slices were then collected for c-Fos immunohistochemistry. TMT exposure results indicated that TMT produced stress-reactive behaviors in both male and female rats. Results of c-Fos analyses indicate that neuronal activation in the aIC is not altered following TMT exposure and alcohol injection. In the PrL, alcohol was found to significantly increase neuronal activation in males within the control group. Neuronal activation also significantly increased following TMT exposure and alcohol injection in comparison to alcohol injection in control males. TMT significantly increased neuronal activation in males. In females, alcohol significantly decreased neuronal activation in controls and increased neuronal activation in TMT-exposed rats. TMT also significantly decreased neuronal activation in females. The difference in patterns between males and females seen in the current study indicates possible sex differences.

description: The gradient flow equation in the 2D $O(N)$ nonlinear sigma model with lattice regularization is solved in the leading order of the $1/N$ expansion. By using this solution, we analytically compute the thermal expectation value of a lattice energy--momentum tensor defined through the gradient flow. The expectation value reproduces thermodynamic quantities obtained by the standard large-$N$ method. This analysis confirms that the above lattice energy--momentum tensor restores the correct normalization automatically in the continuum limit, in a system with a non-perturbative mass gap.

Anticipating Democratic Backsliding: Moralization of Democracy Predicts Popular Support for Democratic Regimes
Creators: name: Annadurai, Arthi
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2023

description: Democratic backsliding is increasingly prevalent worldwide, indicated by a rise in authoritarianism and populism. One contributor to democratic backsliding is the decline in public support for democratic regimes. Given that the extent to which something is moralized often predicts attitudes toward the phenomenon, it is possible that the same is true for public support of democracy. I examine this relationship with a correlational study and an intervention. The first study examines the relationship between moralization of democracy and popular support for democratic regimes. The second study tests the efficacy of an intervention framing democracy as a moral good in increasing pro-democratic attitudes. Although there are proposed institutional changes to address democratic backsliding, this research suggests that it may be possible to intervene at an individual level, changing people’s attitudes toward democracy.

description: The Nonsymmetric Kaluza-Klein (Jordan-Thiry) Theory leads to a model of a modified acceleration that can fit an anomalous acceleration experienced by the Pioneer 10 and 11 spacecraft. The future positions of those spacecrafts are predicted using distorted hyperbolic orbit. A connection between an anomalous acceleration and a Hubble constant is solved in the theory together with a relation to a cosmological constant using a paradigm of modern cosmology. . In the paper we consider an exact solution of a point mass motion in the Solar System under an influence of an anomalous acceleration. We find two types of orbits: periodic and chaotic. Both orbits are bounded. This means there is no possibility to escape from the Solar System. Some possibilities to avoid this conclusion are considered. Relativistic effects and a cosmological drifting of a gravitational constant are considered.The model of an anomalous acceleration does not cause any contradiction with Solar System observations. We give a full statistical analysis of the model.

When Great Powers Invade: An Analysis on the Motives and Justifications of Foreign Military Intervention. A Comparative Case Study Between Crises in Eastern Europe and the Greater Middle East.
Creators: name: Fonseca Castro Veronica
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2023

description: The Cold War was marked by a period of competition between two seemingly different ideological, political, and economic rivals. The Soviet Union and the United States. The end of the Cold War, as well as the dissolution of the Soviet Union, brought these rivals to mediating tables where cooperation that once seemed impossible was suddenly the new normal in the field of international relations. Nevertheless, the conclusion of this era brought a new one with it after two hugely important events. The September 11th terrorist attacks in the United States and Vladimir Putin’s rise to power in Russia. Between 2001 and 2023, both powers, who for years seemed to be in diplomatic terms, conducted several foreign military interventions. However, interventions in the Greater Middle East at the hand of the Americans, and in Eastern Europe at the hand of the Russians, marked a new way in which these two states conducted foreign policy. In this thesis, I argue that great powers, more specifically Russia and the United States, have conducted military interventions with very different motives to the official statements they make behind why they decided to conduct a foreign military intervention. In other words, I argue that what states say, greatly varies from what they do. By looking at official speeches, legislative bills, and UN statements, and comparing them to what scholars, reporters, analysts, and official government reports are saying I find the following: the reason why they conduct these interventions lies in the betterment of states at the system, state, and individual level at the expense of the states on the receiving end.

The Effect of Sex on Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Blood Biomarkers in Special Operations Forces Soldiers
Creators: name: Marina Torras
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2023

description: Special Operations Forces (SOF) Soldiers are susceptible to mild traumatic brain injury (mTBI) from exposure to blast and blunt trauma in training and combat operations. Mild TBI diagnosis and management in this population can be especially challenging given their unique exposures. Using blood biomarkers to help track the physiological consequences soldiers experience from brain injury could allow clinicians to make better informed treatment plans. However, there is limited literature on possible sex differences in blood biomarkers in healthy and concussed military members. Current evidence focuses extensively on men. The purpose of this study was to understand the influence of sex on blood biomarker levels in asymptomatic SOF Soldiers, when controlling for mTBI history. Furthermore, we explored the possible contribution of estradiol on women’s biomarker levels. A significant effect of sex on IL-6 was found, observing greater values in females. Meanwhile, the effect of sex on GFAP, S100B or UCH-L1 was nonsignificant. No significant correlations were observed between estradiol and the measured biomarkers in female SOF Soldiers.

description: Closed strings spinning in AdS_3 x S^3 x T^4 with mixed R-R and NS-NS three-form fluxes are described by a deformation of the one-dimensional Neumann-Rosochatius integrable system. In this article we find general solutions to this system that can be expressed in terms of elliptic functions. We consider closed strings rotating either in S^3 with two different angular momenta or in AdS_3 with one spin. In order to find the solutions we will need to extend the Uhlenbeck integrals of motion of the Neumann-Rosochatius system to include the contribution from the flux. In the limit of pure NS-NS flux, where the problem can be described by a supersymmetric WZW model, we find exact expressions for the classical energy in terms of the spin and the angular momenta of the spinning string.

Effect of latitudinal differential rotation on long time evolution of stellar spin

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: Through the angular momentum (AM) transport of the magnetized stellar wind, low-mass main sequence stars spin down.

Long-time evolution of the stellar AM has been studied by theoretical modeling and numerical simulations. Although analytic models that assume solid body rotation explain observed basic trends, the wind toque inferred from stellar observations (Matt et al. 2015) yields the twice larger value than the measured one in the solar wind (Finley et al.2019) and the modeled spin-down rate is overestimated for stars rotating slower than the Sun (van Saders et al.2016). In order to solve these discrepancies, we consider the effects of the latitudinal differential rotation (DR) in the long-time evolution of stellar rotation by a simple model.

Our model calculations show (1) if the sun has equator-fast rapid DR, the discrepancy of the solar-wind torque can be solved; (2) the spin-down rate of slow rotators with polar-fast DR is reduced. These results suggest that the DR is a key to understanding the evolution of stellar AM.

We consider a singlet fermion WIMP and effective operators up to dimension 6 which are generated at the mass scale of particles mediating DM interactions with the SM. We perform a one-loop Renormalization Group Evolution (RGE) analysis, evolving these effective operators from the mediators mass scale to the nuclear scales probed by direct searches. We apply our results to models with DM velocity-suppressed interactions, DM couplings only to heavy quarks, leptophilic DM and Higgs portal, which without our analysis would not get constrained from direct detection bounds. Remarkably, a large parameter space region for these models is found to be excluded as a consequence of spin-independent couplings induced by SM loops. In addition to these examples, we stress that more general renormalizable models for singlet fermion WIMP can be matched onto our EFT framework, and the subsequent model-independent RGE can be used to compute direct detection rates. Our results allow us to properly connect the different energy scales involved in constraining WIMP models, and to combine information from direct detection with other complementary searches, such as collider and indirect detection.

description: We calculate the nuclear and neutron matter equations of state from microscopic nuclear forces at different orders in chiral effective field theory and with varying momentum-space cutoff scales. We focus attention on how the order-by-order convergence depends on the choice of resolution scale and the implications for theoretical uncertainty estimates on the isospin asymmetry energy. Specifically we study the equations of state using consistent NLO and N2LO (next-to-next-to-leading order) chiral potentials where the low-energy constants cD and cE associated with contact vertices in the N2LO chiral three-nucleon force are fitted to reproduce the binding energies of 3H and 3He as well as the beta-decay lifetime of 3H. At these low orders in the chiral expansion there is little sign of convergence, while an exploratory study employing the N3LO two-nucleon force together with the N2LO three-nucleon force give first indications for (slow) convergence with low-cutoff potentials and poor convergence with higher-cutoff potentials. The consistent NLO and N2LO potentials described in the present work provide the basis for estimating theoretical uncertainties associated with the order-by-order convergence of nuclear many-body calculations in chiral effective field theory.

description: Federated learning (FL) coordinates multiple devices to collaboratively train a shared model while preserving data privacy. However, large memory footprint and high energy consumption during the training process excludes the low-end devices from contributing to the global model with their own data, which severely deteriorates the model performance in real-world scenarios. In this paper, we propose FedStitch, a hierarchical coordination framework for heterogeneous federated learning with pre-trained blocks. Unlike the traditional approaches that train the global model from scratch, for a new task, FedStitch composes the global model via stitching pre-trained blocks. Specifically, each participating client selects the most suitable block based on their local data from the candidate pool composed of blocks from pre-trained models. The server then aggregates the optimal block for stitching. This process iterates until a new stitched network is generated. Except for the new training paradigm, FedStitch consists of the following three core components: 1) an RL-weighted aggregator, 2) a search space optimizer deployed on the server side, and 3) a local energy optimizer deployed on each participating client. The RL-weighted aggregator helps to select the right block in the non-IID scenario, while the search space optimizer continuously reduces the size of the candidate block pool during stitching. Meanwhile, the local energy optimizer is designed to minimize energy consumption of each client while guaranteeing the overall training progress. The results demonstrate that compared to existing approaches, FedStitch improves the model accuracy up to 20.93%. At the same time, it achieves up to 8.12% speedup, reduces the memory footprint up to 79.5%, and achieves 89.41% energy saving at most during the learning procedure.
The Brilliance of Resilience

description: National education trends suggest that Black female learners are academically resilient and possess great potential to achieve favorable academic outcomes. Yet, education research on the academic outcomes of Black girls does not sufficiently reflect the diversity of their presence and performance in the classroom. This thesis explored the academic achievement outcomes of Black female learners from an asset-based lens at two distinct high schools in Chatham County using a mixed-methods approach. Proficiency rates for Black female, White female, and Black male learners were derived from End-of-Course assessments in English I, Math III, and Biology over a ten-year period. Qualitative perceptions of Black female achievement were obtained using semi-structured interviews with various educational stakeholders and focus groups comprised of adolescent Black girls. 

An analysis of proficiency rates found that the academic achievement of Black female learners, according to standardized metrics, saw a general decrease over time. Qualitative findings noted that specific policies and programs acted as influential agents for Black female achievement, though the navigation of various stereotypes and stifled the Black female learner’s capacity to academically achieve. Such barriers could be mitigated through the facilitative elements of freedom of choice, empowerment and encouragement, and community – all identified as vehicles that bolstered the Black girl’s ability to achieve.
Market Dynamics and Indirect Network Effects in Electric Vehicle Diffusion

description: The diffusion of electric vehicles (EVs) is studied in a two-sided market framework consisting of EVs on the one side and EV charging stations (EVCSs) on the other. A sequential game is introduced as a model for the interactions between an EVCS investor and EV consumers. A consumer chooses to purchase an EV or a conventional gasoline alternative based on the upfront costs of purchase, the future operating costs and the availability of charging stations. The investor, on the other hand, maximizes his profit by deciding whether to build charging facilities at a set of potential EVCS sites or to defer his investments. The solution of the sequential game characterizes the EV-EVCS market equilibrium. The market solution is compared with that of a social planner who invests in EVCSs with the goal of maximizing the social welfare. It is shown that the market solution underinvests EVCSs, leading to slower EV diffusion. The effects of subsidies for EV purchase and EVCSs are also considered.

Assessing the Quantitative Business Impacts of Paid Family Leave
Creators: name: Shah, Stuti

Year: 2023

description: The United States’ lack of a federal Paid Family Leave policy (PFL) is a result of concern about the cost of the policy and the potential negative impact on business performance. However, empirical research on the impact of the policy on firms is sparse. Understanding the financial impacts of paid family leave can shed light on the potential effects on employers. Therefore, through a difference-in-differences analysis, this research analyzed the effect of PFL on business performance metrics. Using return on assets and revenue per employee as indicators, changes in business profitability and productivity, respectively, are assessed. As a result, this research finds that statewide PFL policies did not generate statistically significant effects on firm performance.
