description: This deliverable has been projected as the long-awaited and definitive description of the Data Lake, that mythical answer to all dwelling technical questions in the whole FAIR-EASE project. The approach presented in this document tries to address that expectation, yet allows itself to do so without conforming to any assumptions derived from common existing definitions of a Data Lake. Instead, it applies high-level systems engineering on the base requirements as gathered in D5.1 and presented during the one-on-one pilot interviews, to conclude in a General Architecture plan that replaces the "Central Data Lake" scenario with a "Many Lakes" one. Overall, this deliverable is intended to provide a framework for planning the rest of the work and should not be evaluated solely based on how accurately it describes the end result when the project finishes. It is as much a management tool as an actual architecture document, and we hope that it will serve as a useful guide for all stakeholders involved in the FAIR-EASE project.
On type Ia supernovae and the formation of single low-mass white dwarfs

description: There is still considerable debate over the progenitors of type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia). Likewise, it is not agreed how single white dwarfs with masses less than ~0.5 Msun can be formed in the field, even though they are known to exist. We consider whether single low-mass white dwarfs (LMWDs) could have been formed in binary systems where their companions have exploded as a SN Ia. In this model, the observed single LMWDs are the remnants of giant-branch donor stars whose envelopes have been stripped off by the supernova explosion. We investigate the likely remnants of SNe Ia, including the effects of the explosion on the envelope of the donor star. We also use evolutionary arguments to examine alternative formation channels for single LMWDs. In addition, we calculate the expected kinematics of the potential remnants of SNe Ia. SN Ia in systems with giant-branch donor stars can naturally explain the production of single LMWDs. It seems difficult for any other formation mechanism to account for the observations, especially for those single LMWDs with masses less than ~0.4 Msun. Independent of those results, we find that the kinematics of one potentially useful population containing single LMWDs is consistent with our model. Studying remnant white-dwarf kinematics seems to be a promising way to investigate SN Ia progenitors. The existence of single LMWDs appears to constitute evidence for the production of SNe Ia in binary systems with a red-giant donor star. Other single white dwarfs with higher space velocities support a second, probably dominant, population of SN Ia progenitors which contained main-sequence or subgiant donor stars at the time of explosion. The runaway stars LP400-22 and US 708 suggest the possibility of a third formation channnel for some SNe Ia in systems where the donor stars are hot subdwarfs.

title: Getting a Handle on It: A First Step Towards Understanding the Cognitive Evolutionary Processes Underlying Changes in the Archaeological Record that Relate to Pliocene and Pleistocene Hand-Held Tool and Hafted Tool Technologies
Creators: name: Fairlie, JE
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository
Year: 2018

description: The main aim of this project is to be able to describe the changes in cognitive ability that have to take place to enable a hominin group that was formerly only able to produce assemblages consisting of reductive or knapped hand-held stone tools, to become a group able to produce a mixed assemblage containing both reductive hand-held tools and also combinatorial hafted tools. Unlike reductive stone tools, hafted tools have pre-processed separate parts that are engineered to fit together to form a single object. Secondary project aims immediately became necessary to support this main aim. The first was to describe the two different groups of tools in a way that showed them as different stages of the same technological dynamic of change. The second was to describe how best to define the over-used word ‘cognition’ in evolutionary terms. The third was to describe how such cognition might change over time in biological terms and also in terms of new cognitive and action potential. It was then necessary to analyse the different technologies included in the period of change considered between 3.3Mya to 0.03Mya, with particular emphasis on the transition between Early to Middle Stone Age and hafted technologies in both Africa and Eurasia. This, and the nature of the cognitive theory chosen as most promising for the project, required the innovation of a new analytical method which focussed on the motor-action or gestural sequences of the technology manufacturer rather than on the finished morphology of the artefacts themselves. Each tool-type gestural sequence was manually coded and then carefully analysed in order to identify gestural pattern commonalities and changes over time. Results show changes in the gestural patterns across the different coded technologies which suggest that evolutionary change is gradual and cumulative, but with moments of emergence when component parts come together to form something new and literally greater than the sum of its parts. Cognitive change is shown to move between a fast and highly effective but implicit, non-language-based cognitive system that relies heavily on rhythmic repetition (early knapping technologies), to a newer system that retains its original ability to use rhythmic repetition but can also incorporate conscious moments of planning, high-level action sequencing, and single discrete actions connected with more derived brain-body systems. This new method of analysis amounts to an exciting innovation that offers up new opportunities to research the evolution of cognition in a more holistic framework both within a single species, and also between different species, particularly of course between modern humans, hominins and modern great apes.

description: Under pressure, metals exhibit increasingly shorter interatomic distances. Intuitively, this response is expected to be accompanied by an increase in the widths of the valence and conduction bands and hence a more pronounced free-electron-like behaviour. But at the densities that can now be achieved experimentally, compression can be so substantial that core electrons overlap. This effect dramatically alters electronic properties from those typically associated with simple free-electron metals such as lithium and sodium, leading in turn to structurally complex phases and superconductivity with a high critical temperature. But the most intriguing prediction - that the seemingly simple metals Li and Na will transform under pressure into insulating states, owing to pairing of alkali atoms - has yet to be experimentally confirmed. Here we report experimental observations of a pressure-induced transformation of Na into an optically transparent phase at 200 GPa (corresponding to 5.0-fold compression). Experimental and computational data identify the new phase as a wide bandgap dielectric with a six-coordinated, highly distorted double-hexagonal close-packed structure. We attribute the emergence of this dense insulating state not to atom pairing, but to p-d hybridizations of valence electrons and their repulsion by core electrons into the lattice interstices. We expect that such insulating states may also form in other elements and compounds when compression is sufficiently strong that atomic cores start to overlap strongly.

description: In this paper offers a simple and lossless compression method for compression of medical images. Method is based on wavelet decomposition of the medical images followed by the correlation analysis of coefficients. The correlation analyses are the basis of prediction equation for each sub band. Predictor variable selection is performed through coefficient graphic method to avoid multicollinearity problem and to achieve high prediction accuracy and compression rate. The method is applied on MRI and CT images. Results show that the proposed approach gives a high compression rate for MRI and CT images comparing with state of the art methods.

description: Vector couplings in the Duffin-Kemmer-Petiau theory are revised. It is shown that minimal and nonminimal vector potentials behave differently under charge-conjugation and time-reversal transformations. In particular, it is shown that nonminimal vector potentials have been erroneously applied to the description of elastic meson-nucleus scatterings and that the space component of the nonminimal vector potential plays a crucial role for the confinement of bosons. The DKP equation with nonminimal vector linear potentials is mapped into the nonrelativistic harmonic oscillator problem and the behavior of the solutions for this sort of DKP oscillator is discussed in detail. Furthermore, the absence of Klein's paradox and the localization of bosons in the presence of nonminimal vector interactions are discussed.

description: Das Verhältnis von Religion und populärer Kultur hat in der deutschsprachigen Religionssoziologie breite Aufmerksamkeit gefunden, ist aber bislang nur selten für die Untersuchung kirchlich verfasster Religionspraxis fruchtbar gemacht worden. Mit dem von der EKD mitgetragenen Online-Kanal „Jana glaubt“ erschließt der vorliegende Beitrag ein profiliertes und auch kontrovers diskutiertes Pionierprojekt im Schnittfeld von Populärer Religion und kirchlicher Glaubenskommunikation. Die Argumentationsführung erfolgt in sechs Schritten. Zunächst werden die für den Beitrag leitenden Theorieperspektiven – das von Hubert Knoblauch entwickelte Konzept Populärer Religion und der praktisch-theologische Leitbegriff der Kommunikation des Evangeliums – zusammengeführt und mit dem in der interdisziplinären Religionsforschung zugkräftigen Mediatisierungsansatz verbunden. Anschließend werden populärkulturelle Eigenlogiken von YouTube-Kommunikation expliziert, damit vor diesem Hintergrund die Adaption des Influencing-Genres im Kanal „Jana glaubt“ in ihrer Spezifizität erhellt werden kann. Weiter konkretisiert wird der Zugriff auf das Zusammenspiel von Populärer Religion, Kommunikation des Evangeliums und Mediatisierung in zwei exemplarischen Materialanalysen, die sich forschungsmethodisch an Jürgen Raabs Analysekonzept einer Visuellen Wissenssoziologie orientieren. Der Beitrag mündet in einer Zusammenfassung, die beide Seiten des erschlossenen Spannungsverhältnisses bündelt: Auf der einen Seite entsprechen die Gestaltungselemente in den Kanalvideos etablierten Standards personalisierter YouTube-Kommunikation. Zudem werden in den Video-Analysen für Populäre Religion grundlegende Dynamiken der Entgrenzung manifest: Kommunikation des Evangeliums wird öffentlich, indem das Private geteilt wird – in der Erwartung, dass gerade die subjektive Darstellung des Privaten den christlichen Glauben kommunikativ anschlussfähig macht. Auf der anderen Seite wirkt sich die kirchliche Einbettung transformativ auf die populärreligiösen Darstellungspraktiken aus. Dabei kommt es besonders bei Fragen der Authentizität und der Autorität zu teils konflikthaften Aushandlungsprozessen.
The W (sl(N+3), sl(3)) Algebras and their Contractions to W3

Year: 1996

description: We construct the nonlinear W(sl(N+3),sl(3)) algebras and find the spectrum of values of the central charge that gives rise, by contracting the W(sl(N+3),sl(3)) algebras, to a W3 algebra belonging to the coset W((sl(N+3),sl(3))/(u(1)⊕sl(N)). Part of the spectrum was conjectured before, but part of it is given here for the first time. Using the tool of embedding the W(sl(N+3),sl(3)) algebras into linearizing algebras, we construct new realizations of W3 modulo null fields. The possibility to predict, within the conformal linearization framework, the central charge spectrum for minimal models of the nonlinear W(sl(N+3),sl(3)) algebras is discussed at the end.

description: X-ray absorption fine spectra at the Al K edge were measured experimentally and calculated theoretically via the multiple-scattering formalism for chemically pure and physically perfect synthetic α-Al_2O_3 (α-alumina), natural ruby/sapphire (corundum) and a series of artificial corundums produced for technical purposes and used as geochemical standards. The Al K-edge spectra differ, despite the identical coordination (short-range arrangement) assumed by O around Al, and vary slightly in relation to the slightly different chemistries of the materials (substitutional defects) as well as on account of the location taken by foreign atoms in the structural lattices (positional defects). A quantitative treatment of the observed changes is made in terms of short-range distortion of the coordination polyhedron and of medium- to long-range modifications in the overall structure, both induced by substitutions. In some technical corundums, the impurities of admixed [beta]-alumina, where Al is both in fourfold and sixfold coordination, produce another small but detectable effect on Al K edges. Therefore, XAFS spectroscopy proves its potential for both measuring a light element such as Al and detecting minor coordination changes and dilute substitutions (~1-3 wt% as oxide) of the absorber by other atoms, at least under the favourable conditions occurring in this system are.
The electrical resistance of niobium and vanadium single crystals at low temperatures
Creators: name: Clayton, John Frederick
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: An investigation into the variation of electrical resistance with temperature for high purity niobium and vanadium single crystals has been carried out. Niobium was studied over the temperature range -30°C to -146°C. It was found that in its highest purity there was little or no anomaly. At lower purities an anomaly in the region of -120°C was discovered which was attributed to oxygen or nitrogen or both changing their position on the lattice to one of higher strain energy because of changes in energy associated with the bonding between interstitials and the lattice. Hydrogen doping of niobium produced an overall increase in resistivity. A drop in the resistance curve was noted at -100°C which was thought to be due to hydrogen, being mobile and non-bonded, moving off the high strain energy sites under the influence of thermal contraction. Hydrogen embrittlement was attributed to hydrogen occupation of high strain energy-sites. Vanadium was found to have a slope change at.-170° when tested between -130°C and -196°C. No definite explanation of this is suggested. Ultrasonic testing of vanadium showed attenuation minima at -100°C and -170°C.

description: The “Arbeitsgemeinsschaft mit aktuellem Thema ‘Twisted KTheory’ ” gave an introduction to several aspects of twisted K-theory. It started with a couple of different definitions of twisted K-theory, suitable in situations of varying complexity from spaces to topological stacks. Then the AG presented tools of calculations like Chern characters with values in the corresponding twisted ordinary cohomology theories, and example calculations e.g. for Lie groups, or via T-duality. The program culminated in the theorem of Freed-Hopkins-Teleman calculating equivariant twisted K-theory of simple Lie groups in term of the Verlinde algebra of loop group representations.

implementation plans

description: The purpose of this deliverable is to plan the specific demonstration activities and to ensure that the relevant RIDE2RAIL solutions will be tested in an integrated way and for the benefit of local users and mobility services. The demonstration concept and implementation plans for the different demonstrators will be coordinated by FIT Consulting and developed by local demonstration cluster groups including technical and operational partners involved. After this introductory section and the next one proposing abbreviation and acronyms, the document is organised as follows: Chapter 3 presents background information and the overall roadmap of WP4 activities, of which this deliverable consitututes the first achievement. Chapter 4 defines the main objectives of this deliverable and describes the structure of the implementation plan. Chapter 5 describes the demos site, the main features, the peculiarities of each demo roll-out, target area and environmental challenge, Chapter 6 describes the three sections in which the implementation plan is structured. For each of the sections are defined the guidelines followed by the partners reponsible for each demonstration for the implementation plan compilation. Chapters 7-10 include the four implementation plans, as drafted by partners responsible of each demonstration, following guidelines indicated in Chapter 6. In Chapter 11 preliminary conclusions are drawn on the implementation scenario of each demo and at cross-demo level. Conclusions can be summarised as follows: The process followed by demo responsible partners to draft implementation plans evidenced that the preparation has started at all demo sites, and all basic features of the demos (location, target areas, main stakeholders to be involved) are confirmed as they were indicated in the DoA. Changes and fine-tuning of action of the preparation phase will be possible during the forthcoming months, until the scheduled end of preparation phase (M12). Targets of the demonstrations have been set and new indicators have been proposed. Some targets still have to be set, during the preparation phase and following specific preparatory actions, especially to face the impact of Covid-19 pandemic follow-up on demand and supply of public and share transport services. The implementation plans include a detailed assessments of risks. The most relevant are connected to (i) the schedule of the release of software and Travel Companion; (ii) the uncertain possibility to integrate RIDE2RAIL in existing/proprietary systems; (iii) data collection and data availability; (iv) the impact of Covid-19 pandemic; (v) the lack of participation or connection with local stakeholders; (vi) language barriers. The above-mentioned conclusions suggest to leave the possibility to review each implementation plan by the end of the preparation phase.

description: Cognitive radio and dynamic spectrum access represent a new paradigm shift in more effective use of limited radio spectrum. One core component behind dynamic spectrum access is the sensing of primary user activity in the shared spectrum. Conventional distributed sensing and centralized decision framework involving multiple sensor nodes is proposed to enhance the sensing performance. However, it is difficult to apply the conventional schemes in reality since the overhead in sensing measurement and sensing reporting as well as in sensing report combining limit the number of sensor nodes that can participate in distributive sensing. In this paper, we shall propose a novel, low overhead and low complexity energy detection based cooperative sensing framework for the cognitive radio systems which addresses the above two issues. The energy detection based cooperative sensing scheme greatly reduces the quiet period overhead (for sensing measurement) as well as sensing reporting overhead of the secondary systems and the power scheduling algorithm dynamically allocate the transmission power of the cooperative sensor nodes based on the channel statistics of the links to the BS as well as the quality of the sensing measurement. In order to obtain design insights, we also derive the asymptotic sensing performance of the proposed cooperative sensing framework based on the mobility model. We show that the false alarm and mis-detection performance of the proposed cooperative sensing framework improve as we increase the number of cooperative sensor nodes.

description: Boron is an element of fascinating chemical complexity. Controversies have shrouded this element since its discovery was announced in 1808: the new 'element' turned out to be a compound containing less than 60-70 percent of boron, and it was not until 1909 that 99-percent pure boron was obtained. And although we now know of at least 16 polymorphs, the stable phase of boron is not yet experimentally established even at ambient conditions. Boron's complexities arise from frustration: situated between metals and insulators in the periodic table, boron has only three valence electrons, which would favour metallicity, but they are sufficiently localized that insulating states emerge. However, this subtle balance between metallic and insulating states is easily shifted by pressure, temperature and impurities. Here we report the results of high-pressure experiments and ab initio evolutionary crystal structure predictions that explore the structural stability of boron under pressure and, strikingly, reveal a partially ionic high-pressure boron phase. This new phase is stable between 19 and 89 GPa, can be quenched to ambient conditions, and has a hitherto unknown structure (space group Pnnm, 28 atoms in the unit cell) consisting of icosahedral B12 clusters and B2 pairs in a NaCl-type arrangement. We find that the ionicity of the phase affects its electronic bandgap, infrared adsorption and dielectric constants, and that it arises from the different electronic properties of the B2 pairs and B12 clusters and the resultant charge transfer between them.

description: The geometry of convex domains in Euclidean space plays a central role in several branches of mathematics: functional and harmonic analysis, the theory of PDE, linear programming and, increasingly, in the study of other algorithms in computer science. High-dimensional geometry, both the discrete and convex branches of it, has experienced a striking series of developments in the past 5 years. Several examples were presented at this meeting, for example the work of Naor on the non-linear Dvoretzky theorem, that of Paouris on the distribution of the Euclidean norm on a convex domain and the results of Rudelson on the singular values of random matrices.
Some aspects of the physiological adaptation of lower vertebrates to marine environments

description: I STUDIES ON THE GLOMERULAR FILTRATION RATE OF RAINBOW TROUT (SALMO GAIRDNERI) Upon adaptation of rainbow trout to 80% sea water, the glomerular filtration rate, as measured by the method of inulin clearance, was reduced from 156 ± 8.9 to 10.0 ± 2.6 ml./kg. body weight/day. Return to fresh water after one month in sea water was accompanied by a rapid re-establishment of the high glomerular filtration rate. This lability of the glomerular filtration rate in the trout is probably an important factor contributing to the reduction of urine flow associated with the adaptation of the euryhaline form to sea water. The effects of adrenocortical and mammalian neurohypophysial hormones on the glomerular filtration rate were studied. Vasopressin and oxytocin, when administered either separately or together, significantly increased the filtration rate, aldosterone had no effect, while corticosterone caused a significant reduction. II STUDIES ON ELECTROLYTE EXCRETION IN THE GREEN TURTLE (CHELONIA MYDAS) The extracellular concentrations of sodium and potassium in the marine turtle, Chelonia mydas mydas, were unchanged after adaptation to a fresh water environment. At the same time the urinary concentrations of these ions were significantly reduced. In addition, the "salt glands" of fresh water adapted juvenile turtles showed a 38% regression in absolute weight. Feeding and saline-loading of sea water adapted turtles elicited rates of sodium and potassium excretion greatly in excess of those possible via the kidney. Failure to detect significant changes in these rates following occlusion of the cloaca further indicated that the major site of electrolyte excretion after feeding or saline-loading was the salt gland. Suppression of adrenocorticosteriod synthesis by treatment with amphenone "B" immediately after feeding or saline-loading reduced the excretion of sodium and potassium to unfed or non-loaded levels. The normal pattern of sodium excretion but not of potassium excretion could be restored in the amphenone-treated animals by the simultaneous administration of corti-costerone. The significance of the ingestion of sea water is discussed in relation to the high electrolyte intake associated with the diet of these turtles.

description: Networks on Chip is a recent solution paradigm adopted to increase the performance of Multicore designs. The key idea is to interconnect various computation modules (IP cores) in a network fashion and transport packets simultaneously across them, thereby gaining performance. In addition to improving performance by having multiple packets in flight, NoCs also present a host of other advantages including scalability, power efficiency, and component reuse through modular design. This work focuses on design and development of high performance communication architectures for FPGAs using NoCs Once completely developed, the above methodology could be used to augment the current FPGA design flow for implementing multicore SoC applications. We design and implement an NoC framework for FPGAs, MultiClock OnChip Network for Reconfigurable Systems (MoCReS). We propose a novel microarchitecture for a hybrid two layer router that supports both packetswitched communications, across its local and directional ports, as well as, time multiplexed circuitswitched communications among the multiple IP cores directly connected to it. Results from place and route VHDL models of the advanced router architecture show an average improvement of 20.4 percent in NoC bandwidth (maximum of 24 percent compared to a traditional NoC). We parameterize the hybrid router model over the number of ports, channel width and bRAM depth and develop a library of network components (MoClib Library).

Mini-Workshop: L2-Spectral Invariants and the Integrated Density of States
Creators: name: (:Unkn) Unknown
Publisher: name: Zürich : EMS Publ. House
Year: 2006
Subjects: subject: Konferenzschrift
subject: 510

description: L2 -spectral invariants play an increasingly important role in the analysis of infinite geometric objects allowing for the action of a group. Typical such objects are covering spaces like Riemannian manifolds and graphs. The aim is to understand the group and the geometry of the object. The associated L2 -invariants can all be derived from the integrated density of states —also known as spectral distribution function— of a suitable geometrically induced equivariant Laplacian. On the other hand, the integrated density of states is also a most prominent quantity in the study of Laplacians with

description: In times of climate change and the global environmental crisis, socioeconomic challenges like urbanization need to be addressed hand in hand with nature and no longer at its expense. Nature-based solutions such as urban parks have become a popular instrument in science and practice. Improved health is a major outcome of their preservation, improvement and expansion. Equal accessibility to urban green for all city dwellers in response to different demands is crucial to generate liveable neighbourhoods with a high quality of life. The identification of the various needs of city dwellers, impeding usage barriers and future potentials of urban green spaces based on a scientific foundation helps city planning and decision making to meet the challenges deriving from global change while benefiting both the health of people and the natural environment. The interdisciplinary research project GreenEquityHEALTH addresses these needs by applying a multitude of methods to assess the functions of green spaces in the city of Leipzig (Germany). Here we publish our third factsheet of the project, including an English and a German version.

Subjects: subject: Konferenzschrift
subject: 510

description: Aﬃne geometry deals with algebro-geometric questions of aﬃne varieties that are treated with methods coming from various areas of mathematics like commutative and non-commutative algebra, algebraic, complex analytic and diﬀerential geometry, singularity theory and topology. The conference had several main topics. One of them was the famous Jacobian problem, its connections with the Dixmier conjecture and possible algebraic approaches and reductions. A second main theme were questions on Log algebraic varieties, in particular log algebraic surfaces. Thirdly, results on automorphisms of An played a major role, in particular the solution of the Nagata problem, actions of algebraic groups on An , Hilbert’s 14th problem and locally nilpotent derivations. More generally automorphism groups of aﬃne and non-aﬃne varieties, especially in dimension 2 and 3 were treated, and substantial progress on the cancelation problem and embedding problem was presented.

description: We develop formalism based on the projected Gross Pitaevskii equation to simulate the finite temperature collective mode experiments of Jin et al. [PRL 78, 764 (1997)]. We examine the $m=0$ and $m=2$ quadrupolar modes on the temperature range $0.51T_c-0.83T_c$ and calculate the frequencies of, and phase between, the condensate and noncondensate modes, and the condensate mode damping rate. This study is the first quantitative comparison of the projected Gross-Pitaevskii equation to experimental results in a dynamical regime.

description: In this talk we present results on the chiral and the deconfinement transition of quenched QCD from Dyson-Schwinger equations. We determine the ordinary quark condensate signaling the chiral transition and the dual quark condensate signaling the deconfinement transition from the Landau gauge quark propagator evaluated at generalized boundary conditions. We find only slightly different transition temperatures at finite quark masses, whereas the transition temperatures coincide in the chiral limit.

description: Funkční vzorek

Mykobakterie se vyznačují nestandardní strukturou operonových úseků DNA a regulací procesivity jejich transkripce (syntézy RNA). Připravený mykobakteriální plasmid obsahuje kódující sekvenci pro Bleo protein vázající zeocin, který zajišťuje bakteriální resistenci vůči tomuto antibiotiku. Před bleo kódující sekvencí se nacházejí unikátní restrikční místa vhodná pro vložení požadovaných úseků DNA za účelem průkazu jejich promotorové aktivity. Po transformaci bakterie Mycobacterium smegmatis mc²155 je příslušný bakteriální kmen testován na  schopnost růstu na kultivačním médiu obsahující zeocin v koncentračním  rozmezí 1–300 µg/mL. Lze taktéž využít diluční metodu pro určení minimální inhibiční koncentrace zeocinu, která je přímo úměrná promotorové aktivitě testovaného úseku DNA. Systém lze využít pro i pro DNA sekvence patogenních bakterií jako např. Mycobacterium tuberculosis.

subject: Aerospace engineering not elsewhere classified

description: As part of humanity's constant effort to explore and expand, the race to establish a cislunar economy is afoot. The Cryobubbles experiment seeks to advance the state of the art in long-term cryogenic propellant management, a field that is an integral part of exploring the next great frontier. The Cryobubbles experiment was created to understand an unexpected bubble formation phenomenon during a tank-pressure control strategy test of NASA's Zero Boil-off Tank (ZBOT) on the International Space Station. A few hypotheses about the causes of bubble formation were developed, and thanks to a NASA flight opportunities grant, the Cryobubbles experiment was designed and manufactured with a \$95,000 budget to test these hypotheses on a parabolic flight. This master's thesis explains the importance of understanding the causes of bubble formation and the thermodynamic operating point chosen to replicate ZBOT conditions. The operation of the experiment and the design of technologies developed to make these operations work are also discussed. Some notable technologies include an insulation sizing algorithm created to maintain the experiment operating point, cryogenically rated viewports that allow for high-quality video recording of the experiment, and copper coils sized to allow for the safe use of noncryogenic equipment in a cryogenic test setup. All of these designs were constrained by a budget, a fast-approaching flight test deadline, and safety considerations. At the time of this writing, the experiment has been fully designed, manufactured, and assembled. The next step is to conduct testing.
