description: In this work, we treat the newly observed doubly charmed four-quark state $ T_{cc}^{+}$ as an axial-vector tetraquark with content $cc\overline{u} \overline{d}$, and calculate its spectroscopic parameters and width. The mass and current coupling of the tetraquark $T_{cc}^{+}$ are found by means of the QCD two-point sum rule method by taking into account quark, gluon and mixed condensates up to dimension $10$. The width of the $T_{cc}^{+}$ is evaluated using partial widths of decay processes $T_{cc}^{+} \to \widetilde{ T}π^{0}$ and $T_{cc}^{+} \to T_{cc;\overline{u}\overline{u}}^{0}π^{+}$ , where $\widetilde{T}=cc\overline{u}\overline{d}$ and $T_{cc;\overline{u} \overline{u}}^{0}$ are scalar tetraquarks. To compute the partial width of the first process, we apply the QCD three-point sum rule approach and extract numerical value of the strong coupling $g$ that corresponds to the vertex $T_{cc}^{+}\widetilde{T}π^{0}$. The width of the second decay is estimated using isospin symmetry and the prediction obtained for the first channel. Our results for the mass $m=(3868\pm 124)~\mathrm{MeV}$ and width $ Γ=(489\pm 92)~\mathrm{keV}$ of the tetraquark $T_{cc}^{+}$ are in a nice agreement with recent measurements of the LHCb collaboration.

description: As annual generation of municipal solid waste increases every year, sustainable practices must be promoted in landfill construction. Landfill covers are required by federal regulation to cap the municipal solid waste and to prevent leachate formation. The use of compost as the vegetative layer in landfill final covers is one way to improve the sustainability of landfills. Current literature on compost shows it to be a superior vegetative facilitation material compared to the traditional topsoil material. In order to successfully use compost in landfill cover applications, hydraulic compatibility of the compost and underlying geotextile filters must be adequate. The hydraulic compatibility of various compost, topsoil, and geotextiles have been explored by performing long-term filtration (LTF) tests. Upon completion of the LTF tests, particle size analysis, permittivity tests, piping measurements, and image analysis were conducted to determine clogging and retention performances. When the clogging ratios and piping measurements were considered, every compost-geotextile and topsoil-geotextile combinations yielded acceptable clogging and retention performance. A parametric study was conducted to determine if different characteristic pore size and grain sizes influenced the laboratory observed clogging ratios; currently, no relationships exist. Existing filter selection criteria successfully predicted retention behavior and failed to predict clogging behavior. Conducting more soil-geotextile compatibility tests will be needed to propose a new filter criterion for clogging. Based on limited LTF data, compost is not likely to promote clogging in geotextiles; however, additional leaching and geotechnical tests are required to assess the nutrient leaching and shear behavior of compost layers on landfill cover slopes.

description: We evaluate the ground state degeneracy of noncommutative Chern-Simons models on the two-torus, a quantity that is interpreted as the "topological order" of associated phases of Hall fluids. We define the noncommutative theory via T-duality from an ordinary Chern-Simons model with non-abelian 't Hooft magnetic fluxes. Motivated by this T-duality, we propose a discrete family of noncommutative, non-abelian fluid models, arising as a natural generalization of the standard noncommutative Chern-Simons effective models. We compute the topological order for these universality classes, and comment on their possible microscopic interpretation.

description: We show that line defects in a non-Abelian Kitaev spin liquid harbor gapless one-dimensional Majorana modes if the interaction across the defect falls below a critical value. Treating the weak interaction at the line defect within a mean-field approximation, we determine the critical interaction strength as a function of the external magnetic field. In the gapless regime, we use the low-energy effective field theory to calculate the spin-lattice relaxation rate for a nuclear spin near the defect and find a cubic temperature dependence that agrees with experiments in the Kitaev material $α\text{-RuCl}_3$.

description: Joint signal-idler photoelectron distributions of twin beams containing several tens of photons per mode have been measured recently. Exploiting a microscopic quantum theory for joint quasi-distributions in parametric down-conversion developed earlier we characterize properties of twin beams in terms of quasi-distributions using experimental data. Negative values as well as oscillating behaviour in quantum region are characteristic for the subsequently determined joint signal-idler quasi-distributions of integrated intensities. Also the conditional and difference photon-number distributions are shown to be sub-Poissonian and sub-shot-noise, respectively.

Second-order Decoupled Energy-stable Schemes for Cahn-Hilliard-Navier-Stokes equations
Creators: name: Zhao, Jia
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: Numerical Analysis (math.NA)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: The Cahn-Hilliard-Navier-Stokes (CHNS) equations represent the fundamental building blocks of hydrodynamic phase-field models for multiphase fluid flow dynamics. Due to the coupling between the Navier-Stokes equation and the Cahn-Hilliard equation, the CHNS system is non-trivial to solve numerically. Traditionally, a numerical extrapolation for the coupling terms is used. However, such brute-force extrapolation usually destroys the intrinsic thermodynamic structures of this CHNS system. This paper proposes a new strategy to reformulate the CHNS system into a constraint gradient flow formation. Under the new formulation, the reversible and irreversible structures are clearly revealed. This guides us to propose operator splitting schemes. The operator splitting schemes have several advantageous properties. First of all, the proposed schemes lead to several decoupled systems in smaller sizes to be solved at each time marching step. This significantly reduces computational costs. Secondly, the proposed schemes still guarantee the thermodynamic laws of the CHNS system at the discrete level. It ensures the thermodynamic laws, accuracy, and stability for the numerical solutions. In addition, unlike the recently populated IEQ or SAV approach using auxiliary variables, our resulting energy laws are formulated in the original variables. Our proposed framework lays out a foundation to design decoupled and energy stable numerical algorithms for hydrodynamic phase-field models. Furthermore, given different splitting steps, various numerical algorithms can be obtained, making this framework rather general. The proposed numerical algorithms are implemented. Their second-order accuracy in time is verified numerically. Some numerical examples and benchmark problems are calculated to verify the effectiveness of the proposed schemes.
X-ray emission from PSR J1809-1917 and its pulsar wind nebula, possibly associated with the TeV gamma-ray source HESS J1809-193

description: We detected X-ray emission from the 50-kyr-old pulsar J1809-1917 and resolved its pulsar wind nebula (PWN) with Chandra. The pulsar spectrum fits PL+BB model with the photon index of 1.2 and the BB temperature of 2 MK for n_{H}=0.7\times 10^{22} cm^{-2}. The luminosities are(4\pm 1)\times 10^{31} ergs s^{-1} for the PL component (in the 0.5-8 keV band) and ~1\times 10^{32} ergs s^{-1} for the BB component (bolometric) at a plausible distance of 3.5 kpc. The bright inner PWN component of a 3''\times12'' size is elongated in the north-south direction, with the pulsar close to its south end. This component is immersed in a larger (20''\times40''), similarly elongated outer PWN component of lower surface brightness. The elongated shape of the compact PWN can be explained by the ram pressure confinement of the pulsar wind due to the supersonic motion of the pulsar. The PWN spectrum fits a PL model with photon index of 1.4\pm0.1 and 0.5-8 keV luminosity of 4\times10^{32} ergs s^{-1}. The compact PWN appears to be inside a large-scale (~4'\times4') emission more extended to the south of the pulsar, i.e. in the direction of the alleged pulsar motion. To explain the extended X-ray emission ahead of the moving pulsar, one has to invoke strong intrinsic anisotropy of the pulsar wind or assume that this emission comes from a relic PWN swept by the asymmetrical reverse SNR shock. The pulsar and its PWN are located within the extent of the unidentified TeV source HESS J1809-193 whose brightest part is offset by ~8' to the south of the pulsar, i.e. in the same direction as the large-scale X-ray emission. Although the association between J1809-1917 and HESS J1809-193 is plausible, an alternative source of relativistic electrons powering HESS J1809-193 might be the serendipitously discovered X-ray source CXOU J180940.7-192544.

Effect of intravalley and intervalley electron-hole exchange on the nonlinear optical response of monolayer MoSe$_2$

description: The coherent third-order nonlinear response of monolayer transition-metal dichalcogenide (TMD) semiconductors, such as MoSe$_2$ is dominated by the nonlinear exciton response, as well as biexciton and trion resonances. The fact that these resonances may be spectrally close together makes identification of the signatures, for example in differential transmission (DT), challenging. Instead of focusing on explaining a given set of experimental data, a systematic study aimed at elucidating the roles of intravalley and intervalley electron-hole (e-h) exchange on the DT spectra is presented. Previous works have shown that the e-h exchange introduces a linear leading-order term in the exciton dispersion. Based on a generalized Lippmann-Schwinger equation, we show that the presence of this linear dispersion term can reduce the biexciton binding energy to zero, contrary to the conventional situation of quadratic dispersion where an arbitrarily weak (well-behaved) attractive interaction always supports bound state(s). The effects of spin-scattering and the spin-orbit interaction caused by e-h exchange is also clarified, and the DT lineshape at the exciton and trion resonance are studied as a function of e-h exchange strength. In particular, as the exciton lineshape is determined by the interplay of linear exciton susceptibility and the bound-state two-exciton resonance in the T-matrix, the lineshape at the trion is similarly determined by the interplay of the linear trion susceptibility and the bound-state exciton-trion resonance in the T-matrix.

We find that a ferromagnetic and metallic electron gas is formed at the interface between the two layers. We confirm the metallic character of the interface by calculating the in-plane conductance. The possibility of increasing the electron gas density by selective doping is also discussed.

description: Radio-emitting jets might be one of the main ingredients shaping the evolution of massive galaxies in the Universe since early cosmic times. However, identifying early radio active galactic nuclei (AGN) and confirming this scenario has been hard to accomplish, with studies of samples of radio AGN hosts at z>2 becoming routinely possible only recently. With the above in mind, we have carried out a survey with the Atacama Compact Array (ACA, or Morita Array) at 1.3 mm (rms=0.15 mJy) of 36 high-redshift radio AGN candidates found within 3.9deg2 in the ELAIS-S1 field. The work presented here describes the survey and showcases a preliminary set of results. The selection of the sample was based on three criteria making use of infrared (IR) and radio fluxes only. The criterion providing the highest selection rate of high-redshift sources (86% at z>0.8) is one combining an IR colour cut and radio flux cut (S(5.8um)/S(3.6um)>1.3 and S(1.4GHz)>1mJy). Among the sample of 36 sources, 16 show a millimetre (mm) detection. In eight of these cases, the emission has a non-thermal origin. A zsp=1.58 object, with a mm detection of non-thermal origin, shows a clear spatial offset between the jet-dominated mm continuum emission and that of the host's molecular gas, as traced by serendipitously detected CO(5-4) emission. Among the objects with serendipitous line detections there is a source with a narrow jet-like region, as revealed by CS(6-5) emission stretching 20kpc out of the host galaxy.

description: Sampling equilibrium ensembles of dense polymer mixtures is a paradigmatically hard problem in computational physics, even in lattice-based models. Here, we develop a formalism based on interacting binary tensors that allows for tackling this problem using quantum annealing machines. Our approach is general in that properties such as self-avoidance, branching, and looping can all be specified in terms of quadratic interactions of the tensors. Microstates realizations of different lattice polymer ensembles are then seamlessly generated by solving suitable discrete energy-minimization problems. This approach enables us to capitalize on the strengths of quantum annealing machines, as we demonstrate by sampling polymer mixtures from low to high densities, using the D-Wave quantum computer. Our systematic approach offers a promising avenue to harness the rapid development of quantum computers for sampling discrete models of filamentous soft-matter systems.

CBT versus ACT for Children with Anxiety Disorders
Creators: name: Potvin, Ariane
Publisher: name: University of Chicago
Year: 2021

description: In spite of the fact that CBT has been widely regarded as the ‘treatment of choice’ for a variety of disorders, applications of its distinguishing feature, cognitive restructuring, have been increasingly challenged by the work of many authors in the last thirty years (Golding, 2016; Shedler, 2018). Given these findings, it seems that cognitive restructuring might be especially ineffective for preadolescent children, whose developmentally normal limitations (relative to adults) would likely hinder their ability to benefit from the cognitive restructuring component of CBT. The present article seeks to determine (1) whether CBT may be less likely to work and (2) if a third-wave therapy called Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) might be a viable, or even better, alternative for preadolescent children—and, more specifically, for preadolescents with anxiety disorders.

description: We discuss the limits of the photon wavefunction (PWF) formalism, which is experiencing a revival in these days from the new practical applications in photonics and quantum optics. We build a Dirac-like equation for the PWF written in a manifestly covariant form and show that, in presence of charged matter fields, it reproduces the standard formulation of (classical) Electrodinamics. This shows the inconsistency of the attempts to construct a quantum theory of interacting photons, based on the so called photon wavefunction approach, alternative to standard QED. PWF formalism can then be used to provide an easier description of the propagation of free photons, when the photon number remains fixed in time.

Accelerating the Computation and Design of Nanoscale Materials with Deep Learning

description: In this article-based thesis, we cover applications of deep learning to different problems in condensed matter physics, where the goal is to either accelerate the computation or design of a nanoscale material. We first motivate and introduce how machine learning methods can be used to accelerate traditional condensed matter physics calculations. In addition, we discuss what designing a material means, and how it has been previously done. We then consider the fundamentals of electronic structure and conventional calculations which include density functional theory (DFT), density functional perturbation theory (DFPT), quantum Monte Carlo (QMC), and electron transport with tight binding. In addition, we cover the basics of deep learning. Afterwards, we discuss 6 articles. The first 5 articles are dedicated to accelerating the computation of nanoscale materials. In Article 1, we use convolutional neural networks to predict energies for diatomic molecules modelled with a Lennard-Jones potential and density functional theory energies of hexagonal lattices with and without defects. In Article 2, we use extensive deep neural networks to represent density functional theory energy functionals for electron gases by using the electron density as input and bypass the Kohn-Sham equations by using the external potential as input. In addition, we use deep convolutional inverse graphics networks to map the external potential directly to the electron density. In Article 3, we use voxel deep neural networks (VDNNs) to map electron densities to kinetic energy densities and functional derivatives of the kinetic energies for graphene lattices. We also use VDNNs to calculate an electron density from a direct minimization calculation and introduce a Monte Carlo based solver that avoids taking a functional derivative altogether. In Article 4, we use a deep learning framework to predict the polarization, dielectric function, Born-effective charges, longitudinal optical transverse optical splitting, Raman tensors, and Raman spectra for 2 crystalline systems. In Article 5, we use VDNNs to map DFT electron densities to QMC energy densities for graphene systems, and compute the energy barrier associated with forming a Stone-Wales defect. In Article 6, we design a graphene-based quantum transducer that has the ability to physically split valley currents by controlling the pn-doping of the lattice sites. The design is guided by an neural network that operates on a pristine lattice and outputs a lattice with pn-doping such that valley currents are optimally split. Lastly, we summarize the thesis and outline future work.

description: Linear embedding transformation has been shown to be effective for zero-shot cross-lingual transfer tasks and achieve surprisingly promising results. However, cross-lingual embedding space mapping is usually studied in static word-level embeddings, where a space transformation is derived by aligning representations of translation pairs that are referred from dictionaries. We move further from this line and investigate a contextual embedding alignment approach which is sense-level and dictionary-free. To enhance the quality of the mapping, we also provide a deep view of properties of contextual embeddings, i.e., anisotropy problem and its solution. Experiments on zero-shot dependency parsing through the concept-shared space built by our embedding transformation substantially outperform state-of-the-art methods using multilingual embeddings.

A Covariant Road to Spatial Averaging in Cosmology : Scalar Corrections to the Cosmological Equations

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: A consistent approach to Cosmology requires an explicit averaging of the Einstein equations, to describe a homogeneous and isotropic geometry. Such an averaging will in general modify the Einstein equations. The averaging procedure due to Buchert has attracted considerable attention recently since it offers the tantalizing hope of explaining the phenomenon of dark energy through such corrections. This approach has been criticized, however, on the grounds that its effects may be gauge artifacts. We apply the fully covariant formalism of Zalaletdinov's Macroscopic Gravity and show that, after making some essential gauge choices, the Cosmological equations receive \emph{spacetime scalar} corrections which are therefore observable in principle, and further, that the broad structure of these corrections is \emph{identical} to those derived by Buchert.

Syntheses of affinity ligands and monoazaporphyrins
Creators: name: Singh, Jai Prakash
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2012

description: Heme and heme proteins are ubiquitous in nature and play many varied and important biological functions. The biological properties of the heme proteins are dependent on the interaction between the metal and the porphyrin where each is dependent on the other to carry out specific functions. This thesis describes the syntheses of affinity ligands and monoazaporphyrins. The synthesis of the ligand was based on a protoporphyr in-IX derivative substituted on either the 2- or 4-vinyl group. The two isomeric affinity ligands, 73 and 74 (2- or 4- substituted) were synthesized from protoporphyrin-IX di-tert-butyl ester 106b by conversion of the vinyl groups to monoformyl derivatives 122b (or 123b) via the intermediacy of photoprotoporphyrin-IX derivatives. The spacer chain [formula omitted] using a formyl group was extended by Knoevenagel condensation with malonic acid to give monoacrylic acid derivatives 132 (or 133). This chain was further extended by linking an aliphatic diamine (1,3-diaminopropane) to the monoacrylic acid derivatives 132 (or 133) through an acid chloride mediated amide linkage. The Fe(III) and Co(II) complexes of the affinity ligand (73 + 74) were prepared and the tertiary butyl groups were removed by treatment with trifluoroacetic acid at room temperature to give 71 and 72. [formula omitted] An improved synthesis of monoazaporphyrins (5-aza) (see p.iv) is described in this work (section 3.4). Our approach consists of constructing 1,19-dibromo-l,19-dideoxybiladiene-ac dihydrobromides which were subsequently cyclized, to give corresponding monoazaporphyrins in high yields, using dibenzo-18-crown-6 as a phase transfer agent for the transfer of an azide ion.

description: The advent of driverless vehicles, including automobiles and buses, may considerably affect the competitiveness and ridership of public transportation services in negative as well as positive ways. Since driverless vehicles may be widely used in the fairly near future, public transit operators and transportation planners should prepare to deal with their anticipated effects. In this thesis the author (1) formulate modular optimization models for both human-driven and automated bus services with fixed routes as well as flexible routes, (2) develop preliminary quantitative assessments of those effects, showing that without drivers, competitiveness of public transportation compared to private transportation decreases; (3) conduct sensitivity analyses to explore how changes in input parameters affect the results; and (4) identify insights in which transit operators, transportation planners and other transportation system stakeholders may use in effectively adapting to the introduction of driverless vehicles.

description: Ferromagnetic ordering is reported in the post-annealed samples of Co doped n-GaN formed by Co+ implantation. A maximum Curie temperature ~ 250K is recorded for the sample with 8 atomic percent Co. Particle induced x-ray emission-channeling study confirmed the substitutional Co in Ga lattice site. Local atomic arrangement around magnetic impurities is also analyzed using Raman study. A disordered model with carrier mediated coupling of localized magnetic moments is made responsible for the observed ferromagnetic ordering.

description: In 1989 the UMWA went on strike against Pittston Coal. In response to declining union power and corporate anti-unionism, the UMWA embraced community members and women as participants in its striking strategy. Although sometimes reluctant to do so, the union accepted the involvement of non-miners in non-violent demonstrations and civil disobedience, and was successful because of the strategic shift. The victory against Pittston Coal in 1989 suggests that scholars cannot rule industrial unions as sites of resistance to capitalism after 1982. The union’s acceptance of community organizing in 1989 also suggests a link between the strategies and success of the Pittston Strike and more recent organizing victories in West Virginia—the West Virginia Teachers’ Strikes. More recent labor militancy in Appalachia has also built off of legacies of resistance dating back to events like the Paint Creek Mine War and the Battle of Blair Mountain in 1912 and 1921.

description: Objectives: We examined the relationship between the initial treatment of acute lower and upper tract respiratory infections with phytopharmaceuticals and the duration of the disease as well as between the initial treatment and the use of antibiotics in the further course of the disease. Method: Outpatients from the IMS® Disease Analyzer database with diagnoses of acute respiratory infections between January 2015 and March 2019 were observed for 30 days. Patients who had been prescribed phytopharmaceuticals on the day of their diagnosis were matched with controls who had not received such prescriptions by treating practice, diagnosis, age, sex, insurance status, index year, and Charlson comorbidity score. Patients antibiotic precriptions on the day of diagnosis were excluded. Logistic regression was used to investigate the relationship between phytopharmaceutical prescription, antibiotic prescription in the further course of the disease, and duration of sick leave. Results: A total of 117,182 patients who had been prescribed phytopharmaceuticals and an equal number of controls were available for analysis. Phytotherapeutics were associated with fewer antibiotic prescriptions. Extract of Pelargonium sidoides root (odds ratio (OR) 0.49 [0.43–0.57]) and thyme extract (OR 0.62 [0.49–0.76]) exhibited the strongest effect among patients treated by general practitioners, while Pelargonium sidoides root extract (OR 0.57 [0.38–0.84]), thyme and ivy extract (OR 0.66 [0.60–0.73]), and thyme and primrose root extract (OR 0.67 [0.47–0.96]) proved most effective in pediatric patients. Patients receiving phytopharmaceuticals had a significantly lower risk of prolonged periods of sick leave. The risk of sick leave durations of >7 days was most markedly reduced in patients taking cineole (OR 0.74 [0.63–0.86]) and Pelargonium root extract (OR 0.79 [0.54–0.96]). Conclusion: The use of selected phytopharmaceuticals for acute respiratory infections is associated with a significantly reduced need for antibiotic prescriptions in the further course of the disease, as well as significantly shorter sick leaves.

description: Different kinds of windows appear in the Recherche by Proust, defining not only the Narrator's perspective about space, but also his attitude toward artistic research. We will analyse three models of windows: firstly, a closed window, remote and mysterious, which marks the fictive boundaries of places from which the observer is left out; secondly, the open windows through which the Narrator watches Balbec's landscape in À l'ombre de jeunes filles en fleurs, while he composes sumptuous painting with words inspired by Impressionism. Those windows represent a screen between the Narrator and reality, a sort of veil which hides the empty shell of reality. Thirdly, we will study the series of windows closed from within, which symbolize the claustrophobic atmosphere of Albertine's captivity. A strange music, evocative and profound, will seep from those obscured windows to the Narrator's ears. Clearly, behind the subject of the window in the Recherche appears the theme of aesthetic creation and its connection with reality. We will explore this relation through the analysis of three “window scenes”, which suggest three phases of the Narrator's artistic research: painting, music, and finally literary description, which reveal in advance the architectonical structure of Proust's work.

description: Internetwork (IN) magnetic fields are highly dynamic, short-lived magnetic structures that populate the interior of supergranular cells. Since they emerge all over the Sun, these small-scale fields bring a substantial amount of flux, and therefore energy, to the solar surface. Because of this, IN fields are crucial for understanding the quiet Sun (QS) magnetism. However, they are weak and produce very small polarization signals, which is the reason why their properties and impact on the energetics and dynamics of the solar atmosphere are poorly known. Here we use coordinated, high-resolution, multiwavelength observations obtained with the Swedish 1-m Solar Telescope (SST) and the \textit{Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph} (IRIS) to follow the evolution of IN magnetic loops as they emerge into the photosphere and reach the chromosphere and transition region. We studied in this paper three flux emergence events having total unsigned magnetic fluxes of $1.9\times10^{18}$, $2.5\times10^{18}$, and $5.3\times10^{18}$~Mx. The footpoints of the emerging IN bipoles are clearly seen to appear in the photosphere and to rise up through the solar atmosphere, as observed in \ion{Fe}{1} 6173 Å\/ and \ion{Mg}{1} b$_2$ 5173 Å\/ magnetograms, respectively. For the first time, our polarimetric measurements taken in the chromospheric \ion{Ca}{2} 8542 Å\/ line provide direct observational evidence that IN fields are capable of reaching the chromosphere. Moreover, using IRIS data, we study the effects of these weak fields on the heating of the chromosphere and transition region.

description: In this series of four lectures, I discuss four important aspects of AGN host galaxies. In Lecture #1, I address the starburst-AGN connection. First, I briefly review the primary diagnostic tools that are used to quantify and distinguish star formation and nuclear activity. Next I describe the best evidence for a connection between these two processes, first at low luminosity and then at high luminosity. In the last section, I summarize the main results and offer possible explanations. In Lecture #2, I discuss our current understanding of ultraluminous infrared galaxies. First, I describe the general properties of ULIRGs, comparing the local sample with their distant counterparts. Then I discuss the role of ULIRGs in the formation and evolution of spheroids and their massive black holes. The discussion of their possible role in the metal enrichment of the IGM through superwinds is postponed until Lecture #3. In this third lecture, I discuss the importance of feedback processes in the local and distant universe. The emphasis is on mechanical feedback. I describe the basic physics of winds, a few classic examples of winds in the local universe, the statistical properties of winds, near and far, and their impact on galaxy formation and evolution. A list of potential thesis projects is given at the end. The fourth and final lecture is on elemental abundances as tracers of star formation. First, I explain the basic principles behind chemical evolution, and describe three simple models whose predictions are compared with observations in the Milky Way. Next I discuss and give an interpretation of the results of abundance determinations in local quiescent and starburst galaxies before discussing elemental abundances in the more distant universe.
