description: We show that cold dark matter particles interacting through a Yukawa potential could naturally explain the recently observed cores in dwarf galaxies without affecting the dynamics of objects with a much larger velocity dispersion, such as clusters of galaxies. The velocity dependence of the associated cross-section as well as the possible exothermic nature of the interaction alleviates earlier concerns about strongly interacting dark matter. Dark matter evaporation in low-mass objects might explain the observed deficit of satellite galaxies in the Milky Way halo and have important implications for the first galaxies and reionization.

description: We present high angular resolution (0.5-2.0") observations of the mm continuum and the 12CO(J=3-2), 13CO(J=3-2), 13CO(J=2-1), C18O(J=2-1), HCN(J=3-2), HCO+(J=4-3) and HCO+(J=3-2) line emission in the circumnuclear disk (r=100pc) of the proto-typical Seyfert type-2 galaxy NGC1068, carried out with the Submillimeter Array. We further include in our analysis new 13CO(J=1-0) and improved 12CO(J=2-1) observations of NGC1068 at high angular resolution (1.0-2.0") and sensitivity, conducted with the IRAM Plateau de Bure Interferometer. Based on the complex dynamics of the molecular gas emission indicating non-circular motions in the central ~100pc, we propose a scenario in which part of the molecular gas in the circumnuclear disk of NGC1068 is radially blown outwards as a result of shocks. This shock scenario is further supported by quite warm (Tkin>=200K) and dense (nH2=10^4cm^-3) gas constrained from the observed molecular line ratios. The HCN abundance in the circumnuclear disk is found to be [HCN]/[12CO]=10^-3.5. This is slightly higher than the abundances derived for galactic and extragalactic starforming/starbursting regions. This results lends further support to X-ray enhanced HCN formation in the circumnuclear disk of NGC1068, as suggested by earlier studies. The HCO+ abundance ([HCO+]/[12CO]=10^-5) appears to be somewhat lower than that of galactic and extragalactic starforming/starbursting regions. When trying to fit the cm to mm continuum emission by different thermal and non-thermal processes, it appears that electron-scattered synchrotron emission yields the best results while thermal free-free emission seems to over-predict the mm continuum emission.

Dyspareunia uncovered : a mixed method exploration of the neglected symptom of endometriosis
Creators: name: Wahl, Kate Judith
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: Dyspareunia affects approximately 50% of people with endometriosis. Despite the prevalence of this symptom, it has been neglected in scientific contexts. Advancing the treatment of endometriosis-associated dyspareunia requires that it is adequately understood and measured in clinical research. This work therefore aims to provide a systematic description of dyspareunia, explore novel approaches to measurement, and makes recommendations for the development of an appropriate patient reported outcome measure. I conducted two studies exploring endometriosis-associated dyspareunia, the first of which was a qualitative description of sexual pain. 17 people with clinically-suspected or diagnosed endometriosis completed interviews about their experience of dyspareunia. Participants primarily experienced pain at the vaginal opening (n=7) and pain in the abdomen/pelvis (n=13). Pain at the vaginal opening began with initial penetration whereas deep pain was often triggered by full penetration or certain sexual positions. In general, participants describe superficial dyspareunia as pulling, burning or stinging and deep dyspareunia as sharp, stabbing, or cramping. Dyspareunia caused most participants to avoid or interrupt intercourse and many reported that the pain negatively affected their self-esteem, partner well-being, and/or relationships. The second study was a cross-sectional study that examined the relationship of superficial and deep dyspareunia with infertility concerns among 300 reproductive-aged participants with histologically-confirmed endometriosis. The odds of infertility concerns were not higher among women with more severe deep dyspareunia (OR=1.02, 95% CI: 0.95-1.09, P=.58). However, the odds of infertility concerns were higher among women with more severe superficial dyspareunia (OR=1.09, 95% CI: 1.02-1.16, P=.01); this relationship persisted after adjusting for potential confounders (AOR=1.14, 95% CI: 1.06-1.24, P<.001). Additional analyses indicated that deep dyspareunia and superficial dyspareunia were different constructs. Overall, the results indicated that measures of endometriosis-associated sexual pain should separately quantify both superficial and deep dyspareunia. Visual aids for item stems, appropriate numeric response scales, and the inclusion of items about dyspareunia impact could improve measurement and management of this symptom.

description: Stars in their late stage of evolution, such as Horizontal Branch stars, are still largely unexplored for planets. We report the detection of a planetary companion around HIP 13044, a very metal-poor star on the red Horizontal Branch, based on radial velocity observations with a high-resolution spectrograph at the 2.2-m MPG/ESO telescope. The star's periodic radial velocity variation of P=16.2 days caused by the planet can be distinguished from the periods of the stellar activity indicators. The minimum mass of the planet is 1.25 Jupiter masses and its orbital semi-major axis 0.116 AU. Because HIP 13044 belongs to a group of stars that have been accreted from a disrupted satellite galaxy of the Milky Way, the planet most likely has an extragalactic origin.

Carrier hopping in disordered semiconducting polymers: How accurate is the Miller-Abrahams model?

description: We performed direct calculations of carrier hopping rates in strongly disordered conjugated polymers based on the atomic structure of the system, the corresponding electronic states and their coupling to all phonon modes. We found that the dependence of hopping rates on distance and the dependence of the mobility on temperature are significantly different than the ones stemming from the simple Miller-Abrahams model, regardless of the choice of the parameters in the model. A new model that satisfactorily describes the hopping rates in the system and avoids the explicit calculation of electron-phonon coupling constants was then proposed and verified. Our results indicate that, in addition to electronic density of states, the phonon density of states and the spatial overlap of the wavefunctions are the quantities necessary to properly describe carrier hopping in disordered conjugated polymers.

description: The transport and complex optical properties of the electron-doped iron-arsenic superconductor BaFe1.85Co0.15As2 with Tc = 25 K have been examined in the Fe-As planes above and below Tc. A Bloch-Gruneisen analysis of the resistivity yields a weak electron-phonon coupling constant lambda_ph ~ 0.2. The low-frequency optical response in the normal state appears to be dominated by the electron pocket and may be described by a weakly-interacting Fermi liquid with a Drude plasma frequency of omega_p,D ~ 7840 cm-1 (~ 0.972 eV) and scattering rate 1/tau_D ~ 125 cm-1 (~ 15 meV) just above Tc. The frequency-dependent scattering rate 1/tau(omega) has kinks at ~ 12 and 55 meV that appear to be related to bosonic excitations. Below Tc the majority of the superconducting plasma frequency originates from the electron pocket and is estimated to be omega_p,S ~ 5200 cm-1 (lambda0 ~ 3000 Angstroms) for T << Tc, indicating that less than half the free carriers in the normal state have collapsed into the condensate, suggesting that this material is not in the clean limit. Supporting this finding is the observation that this material falls close to the universal scaling line for a BCS dirty-limit superconductor in the weak-coupling limit. There are two energy scales for the superconductivity in the optical conductivity and photo-induced reflectivity at Delta1 ~ 3.1 +/- 0.2 meV and Delta2 ~ 7.4 +/- 0.3 meV. This corresponds to either the gaping of the electron and hole pockets, respectively, or an anisotropic s-wave gap on the electron pocket; both views are consistent with the s+/- model.

Conductance anisotropy and linear magnetoresistance in La2-xSrxCuO4 thin films

description: We have performed a detailed study of conductance anisotropy and magnetoresistance (MR) of La2-xSrxCuO4 (LSCO) thin films (0.10 < x < 0.25). These two observables are promising for the detection of stripes. Subtle features of the conductance anisotropy are revealed by measuring the transverse resistance Rxy in zero magnetic field. It is demonstrated that the sign of Rxy depends on the orientation of the LSCO Hall bar with respect to the terrace structure of the substrate. Unit-cell-high substrate step edges must therefore be a dominant nucleation source for antiphase boundaries during film growth. We show that the measurement of Rxy is sensitive enough to detect the cubic-tetragonal phase transition of the SrTiO3(100) (STO) substrate at 105 K. The MR of LSCO thin films shows for 0.10 < x < 0.25 a non-monotonic temperature dependence, resulting from the onset of a linear term in the MR above 90 K. We show that the linear MR scales with the absolute Hall resistivity, with the constant of proportionality independent of temperature. Such scaling suggests that the linear MR originates from current distortions induced by structural or electronic inhomogeneities. The possible role of stripes for both the MR and the conductance anisotropy is discussed throughout the paper.
Strategies for enhancing and controlling metabolic flux in engineered organisms
Creators: name: Raghavan, Adhithi Ravi
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: Efforts to rejuvenate the under-exploited, but high-value, natural product space has focused on wiring nature’s biochemical reactions into microorganisms and features as a sustainable alternative to the chemical synthesis. However, for industrial relevance, the metrics of strain performance, yield, titer, and productivity, need to be improved, to achieve a better economic value. To tackle this, most metabolic engineering strategies have focused on rational deletions or overexpression of genes across metabolic pathways and given little thought to metabolic fluxes and how their channeling could affect biomass accumulation and product formation. Considering this, we propose two approaches: one for increasing the flux across metabolic pathways through the creation of fusion enzyme complexes; and the second to control flux, by tweaking the distribution of resources between biomass and product formation, through an optogenetic circuit. For the first, we have focused on increasing the flux through the non-mevalonate pathway, which is a precursor for the biosynthesis of several terpenoids. Taking inspiration from naturally occurring fusion or bifunctional enzymes of this pathway, we constructed several artificial fusions between rate limiting enzymes, by varying the catalytic domains and linkers, and tested their ability to improve flux, by enabling better substrate channeling. From our data, we found the fusion between the enzymes of IspD and IspE, with a flexible linker, outperformed the other strains especially in terms of lycopene titer. For controlling flux, we created an optogenetic circuit, which provides fine spatial control over individual cells and has advantages over chemical inducers. On exposure to red-light at 660 nm, the circuit activates T7 RNA polymerase and allocates resources between biomass accumulation and product formation. Design elements of the circuit include: plant-based phytochromes, that function as optical dimers; and yeast-based split-inteins, that can trigger a trans-splicing reaction. Using this circuit and external optical systems, we have dynamically controlled the expression of T7 RNA polymerase, which controls expression of the secondary metabolite, lycopene in our case. We expressed this circuit in bacteria and observed roughly a fivefold increase in lycopene titer with light, versus no light illumination, providing proof-of-concept of the approach.

title: Das Wissen der Bürger – kommunale Wissensinkorporierung durch Partizipation in der Stadtplanung
Creators: name: Weber, Meike
Publisher: name: UNSPECIFIED
Year: 2022

description: In der vorliegenden Dissertationsschrift „Das Wissen der Bürger – kommunale Wissensinkorporierung durch Partizipation in der Stadtplanung“ wird der Frage nachgegangen, inwieweit es von stadtspezifischen Bedingungen abhängt, dass bestimmte verfügbare Wissensbestände in politischen Entscheidungen aufgegriffen werden – und andere nicht. Dabei wird davon ausgegangen, dass lokale Problemdefinitionen, Handlungsorientierungen und Problemlösungsstrategien von einer „Wissenswahl“ abhängen, ob und wie Wissen durch Partizipation inkorporiert wird. Dafür eignet sich besonders der Rational Choice-Institutionalismus nach Ostrom (1986), da hierbei Entscheidungssituationen im Vordergrund stehen. Mit Hilfe des Institutional Analysis Development Framework (IAD-Modell) können demnach lokale erklärende Faktoren, die die Wissensinkorporierung beeinflussen, systematisch aufgearbeitet werden. Für die vorliegende Untersuchung wird sich für Partizipationsverfahren innerhalb der städtischen Klimapolitik entschieden, da diese ein Politikfeld darstellt, in dem Partizipationsverfahren nicht bereits de jure regulativ vorgeschrieben sind und den Vorhabensträger_innen der partizipativen Verfahren vielfältige Gestaltungsmöglichkeiten vor Ort offen stehen, die auch der Vielfältigkeit des Politikfeldes geschuldet ist, da das Politikfeld der städtischen Klimapolitik eine Querschnittsaufgabe darstellt. Die zwei gewählten Untersuchungsstädte wurden nach dem Most-Similar systems Design ausgesucht. Durch die Auswahl der Untersuchungsstädte München und Frankfurt am Main waren keine systematischen Abweichungen durch die sozio-ökonomischen Bedingungen zu erwarten. Dadurch, dass beide Städte über einen gut ausgestatteten Haushalt über Jahrzehnte verfügen, waren auch die finanziellen Mittel da, die freiwillige Aufgabe des städtischen Klimaschutzes zu gestalten. Die empirischen Ergebnisse zeigen, dass es nicht von vornherein klar ist, dass das Wissen der Bürger_innen, welches durch partizipative Verfahren generiert wird, zwingend innerhalb von Hierarchien versickern muss. Daher kommt es mutmaßlich vielmehr darauf an, ob die Akteur_innen, die über die Wissensinkorporierung entscheiden, das generierte Wissen inkorporieren möchten und können - oder nicht.

description: The planar solution is discussed for an N=3 Chern-Simons-matter theory constructed recently by Gaiotto and Tomasiello. The planar resolvent is obtained in terms of contour integrals. If the sum of two Chern-Simons levels k_1,k_2 is small, the expectation value of a supersymmetric Wilson loop grows exponentially with the total 't Hooft coupling, as is expected from AdS/CFT correspondence. If one of the Chern-Simons levels, say k_2, is taken to infinity, for which one of the 't Hooft coupling constants becomes zero, then the exponential behavior disappears.

description: We study the expansion of low density cavities produced by Active Galactic Nuclei jets in clusters of galaxies. The long term stability of these cavities requires the presence of linked magnetic fields. We find solutions describing the self-similar expansion of structures containing large-scale electromagnetic fields. Unlike the force-free spheromak-like configurations, these solutions have no surface currents and, thus, are less susceptible to resistive decay. The cavities are internally confined by external pressure, with zero gradient at the surface. If the adiabatic index of the plasma within the cavity is $Γ>4/3$, the expansion ultimately leads to the formation of large-scale current sheets. The resulting dissipation of the magnetic field can only partially offset the adiabatic and radiative losses of radio emitting electrons. We demonstrate that if the formation of large-scale current sheets is accompanied by explosive reconnection of the magnetic field, the resulting reconnection layer can accelerate cosmic rays to ultra high energies. We speculate that the enhanced flux of UHECRs towards Centaurus A originates at the cavities due to magnetic reconnection.

Examining the consistency of the good target across contexts and domains of personality
Creators: name: Stewart, Jessica Dawn Wallace
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2019

description: Good targets are those individuals who are seen more accurately than others (e.g., Human & Biesanz, 2013). The present study examines the extent to which the good target is consistent across domains (i.e., traits and motives) and contexts (i.e., in-person and through writing) as well as how being perceived accurately across these facets is moderated by target well-being. Past research has shown that being seen accurately is related to enhanced well-being, increased social support, reduced loneliness, and person-environment fit (Human & Biesanz, 2013). This research which expands our understanding of how being seen accurately is related to well-being across domains and contexts is an important step. N = 194 participants completed a round-robin forming first-impressions design and wrote short essays on five life domains (see Borkenau, Mosch, Tandler, & Wolf, 2016). Participants also completed a self-report including the following measures of well-being: satisfaction with life (Diener, Emmons, Larsen & Griffin, 1985), relationship satisfaction (Ryff, 1989), and self-esteem (Rosenberg, 1965). An additional 199 participants each read 15 essays using a Latin square design to assess the author’s personality. We used the social accuracy model (SAM; Biesanz, 2010) to allow for detailed analysis of individual differences among targets across traits and motives while maintaining both perceiver and target as random factors. We found support for the theory that the good target generalizes across both contexts and domains and, interestingly, found evidence for a positive target with stronger correlations across all context and domain combinations. While we replicated past results showing the target well-being moderates being seen accurately for traits in person, the moderator effects of target well-being were not consistent for motivations or essays. However, again, we found that target well-being was a more consistent moderator for the positive target, particularly in the writing context.

description: We report temperature-dependent surface x-ray scattering studies of the orbital ordered surface in La$_{0.5}$Sr$_{1.5}$MnO$_4$. We find that the interfacial width of the electronic order grows as the bulk ordering temperature is approached from below, though the bulk correlation length remains unchanged. Close to the transition, the surface is so rough that there is no well-defined electronic surface, despite the presence of bulk electronic order, that is the electronic surface has melted. Above the bulk transition, finite-sized isotropic fluctuations of orbital order are observed, with a correlation length equal to that of the electronic surfaces' in-plane correlation length at the transition temperature.

description: The existence of fourth family follows from the basics of the Standard Model. Because of the high masses of the fourth family quarks, their anomalous decays could be dominant, if certain criteria are met. This will drastically change the search strategy at hadron colliders. We show that the fourth SM family down quarks with masses up to 400-450 GeV can be observed (or excluded) via anomalous decays by Tevatron before the LHC.

description: On the basis of the PPMXL catalogue we perform an all-sky census of the Hyades down to masses of about 0.2 m_sun in a region up to 30 pc from the cluster centre. We use the proper motions from PPMXL in the convergent point method to determine probable kinematic members. From 2MASS photometry and CMC14 r'-band photometry, we derive empirical colour-absolute magnitude diagrams and, finally, determine photometric membership for all kinematic candidates. This is the first deep (r' < 17) all-sky survey of the Hyades allowing a full three-dimensional analysis of the cluster. The survey is complete down to at least M_{K_s} = 7.3 or 0.25 m_sun. We find 724 stellar systems co-moving with the bulk Hyades space velocity, which represent a total mass of 435 m_sun. The tidal radius is about 9 pc, and 275 m_sun (364 systems) are gravitationally bound. This is the cluster proper. Its mass density profile is perfectly fitted by a Plummer model with a central density of 2.21 m_sun*pc^-3 and a core radius of r_co = 3.10 pc, while the half-mass radius is r_h = 4.1 pc. There are another 100 m_sun in a volume between one and two tidal radii (halo), and another 60 m_sun up to a distance of 30 pc from the centre. Strong mass segregation is inherent in the cluster. The present-day luminosity and mass functions are noticeably different in various parts of the cluster (core, corona, halo, and co-movers). They are strongly evolved compared to presently favoured initial mass functions. The analysis of the velocity dispersion of the cluster shows that about 20% of its members must be binaries. As a by-product, we find that presently available theoretical isochrones are not able to adequately describe the near-infrared colour-absolute magnitude relation for those cluster stars that are less massive than about 0.6 m_sun.

description: I present computations of the integrated column densities produced in the post-shock cooling layers and in the radiative precursors of partially-cooled fast shocks as a function of the shock age. The results are applicable to the shock-heated warm/hot intergalactic medium (WHIM) which is expected to be a major baryonic reservoir, and contain a large fraction of the so-called "missing baryons". My computations indicate that readily observable amounts of intermediate and high ions, such as CIV, NV, and OVI are created in the precursors of young shocks, for which the shocked gas remains hot and difficult to observe. I suggest that such precursors may provide a way to identify and estimate the "missing" baryonic mass associated with the shocks. The absorption-line signatures predicted here may be used to construct ion-ratio diagrams, which will serve as diagnostics for the photoionized gas in the precursors. In my numerical models, the time-evolution of the shock structure, self-radiation, and associated metal-ion column densities are computed by a series of quasi-static models, each appropriate for a different shock age. The shock code used in this work calculates the nonequilibrium ionization and cooling, follows the radiative transfer of the shock self-radiation through the post-shock cooling layers, takes into account the resulting photoionization and heating rates, follows the dynamics of the cooling gas, and self-consistently computes the photoionization states in the precursor gas. I present a complete set of the age-dependent post-shock and precursor columns for all ionization states of the elements H, He, C, N, O, Ne, Mg, Si, S, and Fe, as functions of the shock velocity, gas metallicity, and magnetic field. I present my numerical results in convenient online tables.

description: We study three newly observed D(2550), D(2610), and D(2760) by the BaBar Collaboration utilizing the mass spectra and investigating the strong decays. Our calculation indicates that D(2610) is an admixture of $2^3S_1$ and $1^3D_1$ with $J^P=1^-$. $D(2760)$ can be explained as either the orthogonal partner of D(2610) or $1^3D_3$. Our estimate of the decay width for $D(2550)$, assuming it as $2^1S_0$, is far below the experimental value. the threshold effect because the strong decay of $D(2550)\to D_0^*π$ is forbidden.} The decay behavior of the remaining two 1D charmed mesons, i.e., $^3D_2$ and $^1D_2$ ($J^P=2^-$) states, is predicted, which will help future experimental search for these missing $D$-wave charmed mesons.

description: We examine the possibility that a new strong interaction is accessible to the Tevatron and the LHC. In an effective theory approach, we consider a scenario with a new color-octet interaction with strong couplings to the top quark, as well as the presence of a strongly coupled fourth-generation which could be responsible for electroweak symmetry breaking. We apply several constraints, including the ones from flavor physics. We study the phenomenology of the resulting parameter space at the Tevatron, focusing on the the forward-backward asymmetry in top pair production, as well as in the production of the fourth-generation quarks. We show that if the excess in the top production asymmetry is indeed the result of this new interaction, the Tevatron could see the first hints of the strongly coupled fourth-generation quarks. Finally, we show that the LHC with $\sqrt{s}=7~$TeV and $1~{\rm fb}^{-1}$ integrated luminosity should observe the production of fourth-generation quarks at a level at least one order of magnitude above the QCD prediction for the production of these states.

description: Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV)-infected tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) plants emit volatile organic compounds (VOCs) attractive to bumblebees (Bombus terrestris L.), which are important tomato pollinators, but which do not transmit CMV. We investigated if this effect was unique to the tomato-CMV pathosystem. In two bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) cultivars, infection with the potyviruses bean common mosaic virus (BCMV) or bean common mosaic necrosis virus (BCMNV), or with the cucumovirus CMV induced quantitative changes in VOC emission detectable by coupled gas chromatography–mass spectrometry. In free-choice olfactometry assays bumblebees showed an innate preference for VOC blends emitted by virus-infected non-flowering bean plants and flowering CMV-infected bean plants, over VOCs emitted by non-infected plants. Bumblebees also preferred VOCs of flowering BCMV-infected plants of the Wairimu cultivar over non-infected plants, but the preference was not significant for BCMV-infected plants of the Dubbele witte cultivar. Bumblebees did not show a significant preference for VOCs from BCMNV-infected flowering bean plants but differential conditioning olfactometric assays showed that bumblebees do perceive differences between VOC blends emitted by flowering BCMNV-infected plants over non-infected plants. These results are consistent with the concept that increased pollinator attraction may be a virus-to-host payback, and show that virus-induced changes in bee-attracting VOC emission is not unique to one virus-host combination.

description: We construct a class of two Higgs doublets models with a 4th sequential generation of fermions that may effectively accommodate the low energy characteristics and phenomenology of a dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking scenario which is triggered by the condensates of the 4th family fermions. In particular, we single out the heavy quarks by coupling the "heavier" Higgs doublet (Φ_h) which possesses a much larger VEV only to them while the "lighter" doublet (Φ_l) couples only to the light fermions. We study the constraints on these models from precision electroweak data as well as from flavor data. We also discuss some distinct new features that have direct consequences on the production and decays of the 4th family quarks and leptons in high energy colliders; in particular the conventional search strategies for t' and b' may need to be significantly revised.

description: How stellar clusters form is a fundamental open question in modern astrophysics. Most young stars are observed in groups or clusters, still embedded in their natal molecular clouds. But, within 10 Myr, only about 10% of stars remain bound to their birth clusters. The vast majority of stars have already dispersed into the field, or are found in unbound stellar associations by this age. This raises the question: on what spatial scales do stars form co-evally? And for how long do the initial conditions, such as spatial configurations and kinematics preserve after stars de-couple from their natal gas? Using Gaia DR2 data, we have discovered a large scale (300 pc long), co-eval cigar-like structure that is compact in proper motions, and located about 400 pc from us. The relic filament is roughly 35 Myr old and connects four already known open star clusters and three newly discovered ones. The latest DR3 data, complemented with radial velocities, provide an even better and more precise picture of this structure. This allows us to see, almost frozen in time, an ensemble of young stellar clusters/groups just getting out of the original nascent filament. This is a unique event, picturing the status of young stars at the early stage of their life formed together co-evally on such an unexpectedly large spatial scale.
