description: Chromenone-rhodamine conjugate 1 has been synthesized and its metal ion binding properties have been studied in CH3CN/water (3:1, v/v; 10 mM HEPES buffer; pH = 6.85). Compound 1 senses multiple metal ions such as Al3+ and Hg2+ by exhibiting turn on fluorescence and color change (colorless to pink). Al3+ and Hg2+ ions have been distinguished with the aid of tetrabutylammonium iodide (TBAI). While in the presence of I− the pink color of the 1.Hg2+ complex was completely discharged; under identical conditions the pink color of 1.Al3+ complex was retained.

description: We consider the cohomological classification of the 4+2-dimensional topological field, which is proposed by Lüscher, for SU(2)_L \times U(1)_Y electroweak theory. The dependence on the admissible abelian gauge field of U(1)_Y is determined through topological argument, with SU(2)_L gauge field fixed as background. We then show the exact cancellation of the local gauge anomaly of the mixed type {SU(2)_L}^2 \times U(1)_Y at finite lattice spacing, as well as {U(1)_Y}^3, using the pseudo reality of SU(2)_L and the anomaly cancellation conditions in the electroweak theory given in terms of the hyper-charges of U(1)_Y.

description: In space and astrophysical plasmas, like in planetary magnetospheres, as that of Mercury,energetic electrons are often found near current sheets (CSs), which hints at electron acceleration by magnetic reconnection. Unfortunately, electron acceleration by reconnection is not well understood, yet. In particular, acceleration by turbulent plasmoid reconnection. We have investigated electron acceleration by turbulent plasmoid reconnection, described by MHD simulations, via test particle calculations. In order to avoid resolving all relevant turbulence scales down to the dissipation scales, a mean-field turbulence model is used to describe the turbulence of sub-grid scales (SGS) and their effects via a turbulent electromotive force (EMF). The mean-field model describes the turbulent EMF as a function of the mean values of current density, vorticity, magnetic field as well as of the energy, cross-helicity and residual helicity of the turbulence. We found that, mainly around X-points of turbulent reconnection, strongly enhanced localized EMFs most efficiently accelerated electrons and caused the formation of power-law spectra. Magnetic-field-aligned EMFs, caused by the turbulence, dominate the electron acceleration process. Scaling the acceleration processes to parameters of the Hermean magnetotail, electron energies up to 60 keV can be reached by turbulent plasmoid reconnection through the thermal plasma.

The method is based on ultrafast phase-randomized homodyne detection and allows us to follow the temporal evolution of the second-order correlation function $g^{(2)}(0)$ of a light field. We demonstrate the capabilities of our approach by applying it to a laser diode operated in the threshold region. In particular, we are able to monitor the emission dynamics of the diode switching back and forth between lasing and spontaneous emission with a $g^{(2)}(0)$-sampling rate of 100 kHz.

description: The gauging of free differential algebras (FDA's) produces gauge field theories containing antisymmetric tensors. The FDA's extend the Cartan-Maurer equations of ordinary Lie algebras by incorporating p-form potentials ($p > 1$). We study here the algebra of FDA transformations. To every p-form in the FDA we associate an extended Lie derivative $\ell$ generating a corresponding ``gauge" transformation. The field theory based on the FDA is invariant under these new transformations. This gives geometrical meaning to the antisymmetric tensors. The algebra of Lie derivatives is shown to close and provides the dual formulation of FDA's.

description: Starting from the strong-coupling SU(2) Wilson action in D=3 dimensions, we derive an effective, semi-local action on a lattice of spacing L times the spacing of the original lattice. It is shown that beyond the adjoint color-screening distance, i.e. for $L \ge 5$, thin center vortices are stable saddlepoints of the corresponding effective action. Since the entropy of these stable objects exceeds their energy, center vortices percolate throughout the lattice, and confine color charge in half-integer representations of the SU(2) gauge group. This result contradicts the folklore that confinement in strong-coupling lattice gauge theory, for D>2 dimensions, is simply due to plaquette disorder, as is the case in D=2 dimensions. It also demonstrates explicitly how the emergence and stability of center vortices is related to the existence of color screening by gluon fields.

description: We review our new method, which might be the most direct and efficient way for approaching the continuum physics from Hamiltonian lattice gauge theory. It consists of solving the eigenvalue equation with a truncation scheme preserving the continuum limit. The efficiency has been confirmed by the observations of the scaling behaviors for the long wavelength vacuum wave functions and mass gaps in (2+1)-dimensional models and (1+1)-dimensional $σ$ model even at very low truncation orders. Most of these results show rapid convergence to the available Monte Carlo data, ensuring the reliability of our method.

description: During the next major shutdown (2019-2020), the ATLAS experiment at the LHC will adopt the Front-End Link eXchange (FELIX) system as the interface between the data acquisition, detector control and TTC (Timing, Trigger and Control) systems and new or updated trigger and detector front-end electronics. FELIX will function as a router between custom serial links from front-end ASICs and FPGAs to data collection and processing components via a commodity switched network. Links may aggregate many slower links or be a single high bandwidth link. FELIX will also forward the LHC bunch-crossing clock, fixed latency trigger accepts and resets received from the TTC system to front-end electronics. The FELIX system uses commodity server technology in combination with FPGA-based PCIe I/O cards. The FELIX servers will run a software routing platform serving data to network clients. Commodity servers connected to FELIX systems via the same network will run the new Software Readout Driver (SW ROD) infrastructure for event fragment building and buffering, with support for detector or trigger specific data processing, and will serve the data upon request to the ATLAS High Level Trigger for Event Building and Selection. This paper will cover the design and status of FELIX, the SW ROD, results of early performance testing and integration tests with several ATLAS front-ends.

Corrosion of thermally-aged Advanced Gas-Cooled Reactor fuel cladding
Creators: name: Phuah, Chin Heng
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2012

description: The microstructure of Advanced Gas-Cooled Reactor (AGR) fuel cladding that underpins its corrosion behaviour has been established, contributing to an understanding of long-term control, monitoring practice and storage decisions for this fuel. AGR fuel cladding specimens sourced from Sellafield Ltd, cut and individually heat treated at temperatures from 400 to 800°C for 24 to 192h were attempts to approximate irradiated AGR fuel cladding and characterised both in terms of their corrosion behaviour and of microstructure. Niobium carbide (NbC) second phases are the primary local corrosion sites. Bulk austenite-γ cladding metal (50.3±1.7 at% Fe, 21.0±1.1 at% Cr and 21.0±0.4 at% Ni) around NbC precipitates exhibited extensive corrosion even though the precipitate themselves appear unchanged. Corrosion observed from the specimen surface took the form of lacy covers around an NbC precipitate at the cover centre (~10 to 25 μm dia. depending on the site) and in the subsurface were voids (~0.1 μm pin-holes), cavities (~2 to 5 μm), an envelope of dissolved-metal region along NbC peripheries (~1 μm thick with austenite-γ composition decreased by on average 20% Fe, 21% Cr and 17% Ni) or a large, smooth concave pit bottom comparable to the cover dimension. These observations collectively suggest that AGR cladding corrosion is a diffusion-controlled phenomenon where the NbC precipitate may act as the cathode in a local galvanic couple and the adjacent austenite-γ metal is the anode that undergoes preferential oxidation. The primary contributing factors to NbC-induced AGR cladding corrosion are high NaCl concentration of the electrolyte solution, large NbC precipitates, small austenite-γ grains and presence of stress in the microstructure. Specifically, corrosion potential measurements in the 0.001M electrolyte NaCl are ~800mV (v.s. Ag|AgCl reference electrode) more noble than in the 0.1M electrolyte, suggesting that cladding wet storage requires maintenance with lowest chloride concentration practically achievable. Specimens with comparatively large NbC precipitates (~5 μm) and small austenite-γ grains (~10 μm) that result from heat treatment are ~810mV more corrosion susceptible than the as-received specimens with ~0.1 dia. NbC precipitate and ~25 μm austenite-γ grains. Increased dislocation densities were observed adjacent to the grown-NbC precipitate, imparting a stress-corrosion effect on the AGR cladding corrosion.

description: A new $μ$TCA DAQ system was introduced in CANDLES experiment with SpaceWire-to-GigabitEthernet (SpaceWire-GigabitEthernet) network for data readout and Flash Analog-to-Digital Converters (FADCs). With SpaceWire-GigabitEthernet, we can construct a flexible DAQ network with multi-path access to FADCs by using off-the-shelf computers. FADCs are equipped 8 event buffers, which act as de-randomizer to detect sequential decays from the background. SpaceWire-GigabitEthernet has high latency (about 100 $μ$sec) due to long turnaround time, while GigabitEthernet has high throughput. To reduce dead-time, we developed the DAQ system with 4 "crate-parallel" (modules in crates are read in parallel) reading threads. As a result, the readout time is reduced by 4 times: 40 msec down to 10 msec. With improved performance, it is expected to achieve higher background suppression for CANDLES experiment. Moreover, for energy calibration, "event-parallel" reading process (events are read in parallel) is also introduced to reduce measurement time. With 2 "event-parallel" reading processes, the data rate is increased 2 times.

description: This study is a discriminating view of archaeological site records from Nellis Air Force Base. Records were selected based on defined criteria, experience of the land, and knowledge of the varied abilities of the many archaeologists who worked on this Air Force range over 35 years. This differs from statistical analyses where sites are ranked by accepting all data on site records as relatively equal. From a universe of 2,065 records, 244 were selected using intuitive criteria that reflected an understanding of the differences in research over 35 years and the abilities of the archaeologists. The data identified 10 zones of high aboriginal activity. Several are associated with known highly valued resources, yet questions for research may be formed for those in which obvious valued resources are not easily identified.

description: Capsule: Northern Gannet Morus bassanus counts obtained from a coastal monitoring network in northern Spain were highly determined by wind conditions. Aims: To determine how external factors including weather conditions affect seabird counts in a land-based seabird monitoring project (Red de observación de Aves y Mamíferos marinos, RAM project; Seabird & Marine Mammal Observation Network). Methods: Seabird counts were obtained from four study capes situated in the southeastern part of the Bay of Biscay in northern Spain. Counts were conducted on a monthly-basis for a period of 3 hours starting at dawn on each sampling day. Data used here were compiled over a 10-year period (2006–15). Results: Northern Gannet numbers were chiefly influenced by meteorological conditions at a local spatial scale. Northwesterly winds were found to positively influence gannet abundance, whereas high relative humidity caused a decrease in abundance. Moreover, gannets were more abundant during the non-breeding period as compared to breeding period. Conclusion: We recommend considering the effect of the wind and relative humidity on land-based seabird counts in the Bay of Biscay when handling data from the RAM protocol in order to avoid biases and misinterpretation of data. Since seabirds approach the coast during harsh weather conditions, the RAM protocol should be improved in order to better account for the distance at which the birds are seen.

Anorectic Gut Hormones PYY and GLP-1 on Brain Appetite Pathways: A Human fMRI Study.
Creators: name: Salem, Victoria
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2012

description: This thesis explores the roles of the gut hormones Peptide YY (PYY) and glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) in the modulation of human brain reward pathways utilising functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI). PYY and GLP-1 are co-released post-prandially and both have been shown to reduce appetite and inhibit food intake when administered to humans. They have the potential to be developed into anti-obesity therapies, with the expectation that low-dose combination therapy may provide more effective weight loss and limited side effects. There are currently no safe and effective medications available to treat obesity, and yet this global health crisis continues unabated. In this context, a study of the mechanisms by which gut hormones exert their anorectic effects, may guide the rational development of new drugs. To date, the effects of GLP-1 alone and the ways in which PYY and GLP-1 combine to modulate brain activity in humans are unknown. This thesis contains a set of functional MRI experiments designed to determine these effects in healthy, fasted, normal-weight human subjects. Results are compared with the changes in brain activation patterns observed physiologically following a meal. For the first time in humans, I have demonstrated that, in conjunction with a comparable effect on lunchtime energy intake, combined infusion of PYY3-36 and GLP-17-36amide to fasted subjects results in a similar modulation of brain activity as observed following a large breakfast. This supports the proposal that these hormones are major physiological mediators of satiety in humans. Both the fed state and the administration of anorectic gut hormones to fasted subjects, reduces activation in multiple brain reward regions in response to visual food-cues. This confirms that circulating gut hormones modulate the hedonic processing of food. The lack of any obvious differential activation pattern between PYY3-36 and GLP-17- 36amide raises the possibility that they act at corticolimbic structures via a final common pathway.

Robust estimation and sub-optimal predictive control for satellites
Creators: name: Ahmed, Shakil
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2012

description: This thesis explores the attitude estimation and control problem of a magnetically controlled small satellite in initial acquisition phase. During this phase, large data uncertainties pose estimation challenges, while highly nonlinear dynamics and inherent limitations of the magnetic actuation are primary issues in control. We aim to design algorithms, which can improve performance compared to the state of the art techniques and remain tractable for practical applications. Static attitude estimation, which is an essential part of a satellite control system, uses vector information and solves a constrained weighted least-square problem. With large data uncertainties, this technique results in large errors rendering divergence or infeasibility in dynamic filtering and control. When static estimation is the primary source of attitude, these errors become critical; for example in low budget small satellites. To address this issue, we formulate a robust static estimation problem with norm-bounded uncertainties, which is a difficult optimization problem due to its unfavorable convexity properties and nonlinear constraints. By deriving an analytical upper bound for the convex maximization, the robust min-max problem is approximated with a minimization problem with quadratic cost and constraints (a QCQP), which is non-convex. Semidefinite relaxation is used to upper bound the non-convex QCQP with a semi-definite program, which can efficiently be solved in a polynomial time. Furthermore, it is shown that the derived upper bound has no gap in solving the robust problem in practice. Semi-definite relaxations are also applied to solve the robust formulations of a more general class of problems known as the orthogonal Procrustes problem (OPP). It is shown that the solution of the relaxed OPP is exact when no uncertainties are considered; however, for the robust case, only a sub-optimal solution can be obtained. Finally, a satellite rate damping in initial acquisition phase is addressed by using nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC). Standard NMPC schemes with guaranteed stability show superior performance than existing techniques; however, they are computationally expensive. With large initial rates, the computational burden of NMPC becomes prohibitively excessive. For these cases, an algorithm is presented with an additional constraint on the cost reduction that allows an early termination of the optimizer based on the available computational resources. The presented algorithm significantly reduces the de-tumbling time due to the imposed cost reduction constraint.
A Wake Up Call: A Qualitative Inquiry into Principals' Reflections of Later Secondary School Start Times

description: This phenomenological study examined the reflections of secondary school principals when transitioning to a later school start time. This research dives deeper into the lived experiences of school leaders as they share their perceptions of how the start times impacted students, staff, and school operations. Semi-structured interviews with four Indiana principals revealed that while later start times initially improved student alertness and engagement, however long-term benefits diminished as students appeared to adjust their sleep schedules. Likewise, the principals noted modest gains in academic performance, particularly in morning classes, but the principals were hesitant to attribute those gains solely to the schedule change. Logistical challenges, including transportation delays, extracurricular conflicts, and increased teacher fatigue, posed significant concerns in the principals’ reflections. Initially, parents and staff resisted the idea of a later start, but principals shared that the resistance declined over time as stakeholders adapted. Later start times alone did not directly improve student mental health, as principals believed broader factors like social pressures and family stress remained influential. The findings of this study demonstrate that for schools considering school start time changes, a holistic approach, integrating sleep education, mental health resources, and flexible staff scheduling may be helpful. While later start times may enhance student engagement, balancing those enhancements with the potential operational challenges should also be considered. The findings offer real-world examples and insights for administrators and policymakers, emphasizing stakeholder collaboration and long-term planning.

Cette pierre n'est point calcaire, c'est une espèce de grès, elle n'est plus noire, elle peut l'avoir été, son grain est sabloneux et assez grossier, sa partie postérieure est percilliée d'un grand nombre de trous naturels. Nous ne pouvons pas douter que les anciens qui n'avaient fait que peu de progrès dans la physique n'aient cruque cette pierre avait été lancée avec le tonnerre. C`était selon eux le carreau.

Conservez-vous, monsieur, donnez-moide vos nouvelles, et comptez bien sur tous les sentiments avec lesquels je suis votre très humble serviteur, Calvet.

Avignon, ce 12 juillet 1782.

description: Classical properties of an open quantum system emerge through its interaction with other degrees of freedom (decoherence). We treat the case where this interaction produces a Markovian master equation for the system. We derive the corresponding distinguished local basis (pointer basis) by three methods. The first demands that the pointer states mimic as close as possible the local non-unitary evolution. The second demands that the local entropy production be minimal. The third imposes robustness on the inherent quantum and emerging classical uncertainties. All three methods lead to localized Gaussian pointer states, their formation and diffusion being governed by well-defined quantum Langevin equations.

description: The exact solution for a static spherically symmetric field outside a charged point particle is found in a non-linear $U(1)$ gauge theory with a logarithmic Lagrangian. The electromagnetic self-mass is finite, and for a particular relation between mass, charge, and the value of the non-linearity coupling constant, $λ$, the electromagnetic contribution to the Schwarzschild mass is equal to the total mass. If we also require that the singularity at the origin be hidden behind a horizon, the mass is fixed to be slightly less than the charge. This object is a {\em black point.}

description: Results of a ground-based optical monitoring campaign on 3C 390.3 in 1994-95 are presented. The broad-band fluxes (B, V, R, and I), the spectrophotometric optical continuum flux F(5177) and the integrated emission-line fluxes of Ha, Hb, Hg, HeI, and HeII all show a nearly monotonic increase with episodes of milder short-term variations superposed. The amplitude of the continuum variations increases with decreasing wavelength (4400-9000 A). The optical continuum variations follow the variations in the ultraviolet and X-ray with time delays, measured from the centroids of the cross- correlation functions, typically around 5 days, but with uncertainties also typically around 5 days; zero time delay between the high-energy and low-energy continuum variations cannot be ruled out. The strong optical emission lines Ha, Hb, Hg, and HeI respond to the high-energy continuum variations with time delays typically about 20 days, with uncertainties of about 8 days. There is some evidence that HeII responds somewhat more rapidly, with a time delay of around 10 days, but again, the uncertainties are quite large (~8 days). The mean and rms spectra of the Ha and Hb line profiles provide indications for the existence of at least three distinct components located at +-4000 and 0 km/s relative to the line peak. The emission-line profile variations are largest near line center.

Aircraft NLG Shimmy : Methods, Tools and Analysis
Creators: name: Davidson, Gordon Westly
Publisher: name: Imperial College London

description: ELGEAR was a UK government/industry partnership created in 2006 to research electrical technology in aircraft landing gear systems. The project designed, built and ground tested electrical technology for a Landing Gear Extension/Retraction system (LGERS) and Nose Wheel Steering systems (NWS) for a 120 passenger aircraft. One thread of this research, and the topic of the present thesis, was to develop analysis methods and tools to investigate the effects of shimmy. Shimmy is the self excited vibration of a castored wheel assembly. It may be experienced on assemblies such as wheel chairs, shopping trolleys, motor cycles, and it is particularly prevalent on aircraft landing gears. Developed within this report is a generic set of system shimmy requirements to guide future engineers. Several models are developed from first principles, allowing a potential design to be quickly evaluated and damper sizes determined. A detailed Multi-Body Systems model has been created using the software modelling package ADAMS. The model includes a detailed representation of mass and inertia properties, stiffness’s, friction and tyre properties. The report includes a detailed method to determine the tyre parameters compatible with the ADAMS PAC2002 formulation (magic tyre formula). The dynamic model is simulated to investigate the landing gear’s behaviour to each requirement and is a significant enhancement to the models developed using first principles. To explore the influence of higher frequency tyre dynamics, a model incorporating a simplified SWIFT tyre model is generated from first principles. The report concludes with a validation of the methods and tools. Test results are used to validate several aspects of the tyre model, and a comparison between hand derived models and the detailed model provides a thorough check of modelling practices.

description: The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory(JUNO) experiment will develop an internationally leading neutrino experimental station to measure the order of neutrino mass and carry out many other scientific frontier studies. The entire experimental system includes the detector system, the electronics system, and the data acquisition (DAQ) system. Data flow is the core of JUNO DAQ system. Readout system and Event Building (EB) system are two key aspects of data flow. Based on the requirements analysis of JUNO DAQ, this paper proposes a data flow schema of distributed network readout and second-level event building. Focusing on the performance requirements of JUNO DAQ, the performance of the readout and event building module, the number of readout processes deployed on each node, and integration performance of the two modules are studied. The results of the research provide a reference for further optimization of the JUNO DAQ data flow framework

description: A solution to the cosmological constant problem has been proposed in which our universe is a 3-brane in a 5-dimensional spacetime. With a bulk scalar, the field equations admit a Poincare invariant brane solution regardless of the value of the cosmological constant (tension) on the brane. However, the solution does not include matter in the brane. We find new exact static solutions with matter density and pressure in the brane. We study small perturbations about these solutions. None seem consistent with observational cosmology. As a byproduct we find a class of new matterless static solutions and a non-static solution which, curiously, requires the string value for the dilaton coupling.

description: We discuss several aspects of second quantized scattering operators $\hat S$ for fermions in external time dependent fields. We derive our results on a general, abstract level having in mind as a main application potentials of the Yang--Mills type and in various dimensions. We present a new and powerful method for proving existence of $\hat S$ which is also applicable to other situations like external gravitational fields. We also give two complementary derivations of the change of phase of the scattering matrix under generalized gauge transformations which can be used whenever our method of proving existence of $\hat S$ applies. The first is based on a causality argument i.e.\ $\hat S$ (including phase) is determined from a time evolution, and the second exploits the geometry of certain infinite-dimensional group extensions associated with the second quantization of 1-particle operators. As a special case we obtain a Hamiltonian derivation of the the axial Fermion-Yang-Mills anomaly and the Schwinger terms related to it via the descent equations, which is on the same footing and traces them back to a common root.

Electricity Demand: Measurement, modelling and management of UK homes
Creators: name: Bilton, Mark Julian
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2011

description: The need to achieve a transition to a low carbon economy has renewed interest in "energy efficiency" and what has become known as "demand side management". This thesis investigates the role of measurement and modelling in the management of domestic electricity demand. Practice and policy have, since the 1950s, tended to favour a "supply paradigm" centred on the imperative of increasing energy supply. Despite the upheaval of market liberalisation, and twenty years of climate change debate, the domestic electricity "culture" has changed very little. The first half of this thesis contributes to this subject by describing the complex development of the electricity system that we are familiar with today. Drawing upon technical, social and political themes, the current and emerging practices of measurement, modelling, and management are critiqued. It is argued that current practices require revaluation, if alternative, decentralised approaches are to receive a fair analysis. The thesis contributes in empirical terms by extending the evidence base and developing modelling tools for the analysis of domestic electricity use. Field data collected by the author concerning the power flow characteristics of domestic appliances are presented which identify the dynamic nature of domestic electrical loads. A modelling framework is then introduced that combines social and technical aspects of domestic energy demand, allowing synthesis of domestic load profiles and allowing comparison between localised interventions.

description: Salinity is one of the several abiotic factors affecting grape productivity and quality. Transcription factors belonging to AP2/ERF family play an important role in abiotic stress response. Based on the in silico analysis of salt stress libraries of grape ESTs, a transcription factor VviERF073, having a single AP2/ERF conserved domain was identified. The sequence of VviERF073 was analyzed in 'Thompson Seedless'. VviERF073 belonged to the B2 subfamily of ERF transcription factors. Under salt stress, the relative expression of VviERF073 increased 2.7 fold in the leaves of grafted grapevine within six hours of salt stress. The expression increased to 8.7 fold at 15 days of salt stress, thus indicating its role in early as well as late response to salt stress. However, expression of VviERF073 did not change significantly in grapevines raised on own roots. The expression varied in the roots of 'Thompson Seedless' but not in the roots of '110R'. Under salt stress conditions, GAPDH and EF1α for grafted vines and Actin and Tubulin for own root vines, were identified as the stable reference genes for qPCR data normalization.
