description: Various administrations in Nigeria have introduced several socio-economic programmes. In most cases these programmes do not fully actulise the set goals, due to factors such as inadequacies in the areas of information and communication regarding such programmes to the beneficiaries. In some cases, the populace may not understand what some of these programmes are all about. One of such programmes is Social Investment Programmes of President Buhari's administration. This study examined awareness and knowledge of the National Social Investment Programmes of President Buhari's Administration among rural dwellers in Edo State, Nigeria. The objectives of the study were: to ascertain whether rural audience are aware of Social Investment Programmes of Buhari's administration, to find out which of the Social Investment Programmes they have knowledge about and to identify audience's source of knowledge about the Programmes. The study employed Journal of Media, Communication and Languages Focus Group Discussion method to elicit data from the participants across three Senatorial districts in Edo State. The findings revealed that some rural dwellers in Edo State do not have knowledge of Social Investment Programmes of Buhari's administration. Most of them could not identify some of the Programmes. It was found that their main source of information about the programmes were mainly through friends, family members, and community leaders. The study recommended that government should use community media to effectively inform people in rural areas about its programmes. This is because community media have proven to be the most practical, useful and effective method in reaching rural dwellers.

description: The monogamy relation for quantum correlations is not satisfied by all measures for all multiparty quantum states. We prove that an arbitrary quantum state which is nonmonogamous for negativity will become monogamous if a finite number of copies of the same state is provided. We refer this as activation of nonmonogamous states. We also show that multiple copies of a state satisfy monogamy for negativity if it does so for a single copy. The results are true for all quantum states of an arbitrary number of parties. Moreover, we find that two different three-qubit pure states which individually violate monogamy relation for negativity, taken together can satisfy the three-party monogamy relation. This holds for almost all three-qubit pure states while it is true for all three-qubit pure states when a four-party monogamy relation is used to check for their activation. We finally connect monogamy of negativity with genuine multipartite entanglement.

description: We evaluate the effect of two experimental parameters on the slow dynamics of a Von-Kármán swirling flow driven by two propellers in a closed cylinder. The first parameter is the inertia mo- mentum of the propellers, and the second parameter is the aspect ratio, i.e. the distance between the propellers $H$ divided by the diameter $D$. We use a cell with a fixed diameter $D$ but where the distance between the propellers can be turned continuously and where the inertia from the pro- pellers can also be changed using different gears. No change on the dynamics is observed when the momentum of inertia is modified. Some dramatic changes of the shear layer position are observed modifying the aspect ratio $Γ=H/D$. A bifurcation of the shear layer position appears. Whereas for low $Γ$ the shear layer position has a smooth evolution when turning the asymmetry between the rotation frequency of the propellers, for high $Γ$ the transition becomes abrupt and a symmetry breaking appears. Secondly we observe that the spontaneous reversals already observed in this ex- periment for $Γ=1$ [de la Torre & Burguete PRL 99, 054101 (2007)] exist only in a strait window of aspect ratio. We show using an experimental study of the mean flow structure and a numerical approach based on a Langevin equation with coloured noise that the shear layer position seems to be decided by the mean flow structure whereas the reversals are linked to the spatial distribution of the turbulent fluctuations in the cell.

description: We present a study of the active asteroid (3200) Phaethon in the 2016 apparition using the STEREO spacecraft and compare the results with data from the previous two perihelia in 2009 and 2012. Once again, Phaethon brightened by $\sim$2 mag soon after its perihelion passage, contradicting expectations from the phase function of a macroscopic monolithic body. Subsequently, a short antisolar tail of $\sim$0°.1 in length was formed within $\sim$1 day and quickly disappeared. No trail was seen. Our syndyne-synchrone analysis indicates that the tail was comprised of submicron to micron particles and can be approximated by a synchrone coinciding with the outburst. We estimate that the outburst has released a mass of $\sim$10$^{4}$--10$^{5}$ kg, comparable to the two mass ejections in 2009 and 2012, and that the average mass-loss rate is $\sim$0.1--1 kg s$^{-1}$. The forward-scattering effect hinted at low level activity of Phaethon prior to the outburst, which increased the effective cross section by merely $\lesssim$1 km$^2$. Without the forward-scattering enhancement, detecting such activity at side-scattering phase angles is very difficult. The forward-scattering effect also reinforces that the ejected dust grains rather than gas emissions were responsible for the activity of Phaethon. Despite Phaethon's reactivation, it is highly unlikely that the Geminid meteoroid stream can be sustained by similar perihelion mass-loss events.

description: We propose a novel multi-domain grid refinement technique with extensions to entropic incompressible, thermal and compressible lattice Boltzmann models. Its validity and accuracy are accessed by comparison to available direct numerical simulation and experiment for the simulation of isothermal, thermal and viscous supersonic flow. In particular, we investigate the advantages of grid refinement for the set-ups of turbulent channel flow, flow past a sphere, Rayleigh-Benard convection as well as the supersonic flow around an airfoil. Special attention is payed to analyzing the adaptive features of entropic lattice Boltzmann models for multi-grid simulations.

description: We consider the problem of learning distributed representations for documents in data streams. The documents are represented as low-dimensional vectors and are jointly learned with distributed vector representations of word tokens using a hierarchical framework with two embedded neural language models. In particular, we exploit the context of documents in streams and use one of the language models to model the document sequences, and the other to model word sequences within them. The models learn continuous vector representations for both word tokens and documents such that semantically similar documents and words are close in a common vector space. We discuss extensions to our model, which can be applied to personalized recommendation and social relationship mining by adding further user layers to the hierarchy, thus learning user-specific vectors to represent individual preferences. We validated the learned representations on a public movie rating data set from MovieLens, as well as on a large-scale Yahoo News data comprising three months of user activity logs collected on Yahoo servers. The results indicate that the proposed model can learn useful representations of both documents and word tokens, outperforming the current state-of-the-art by a large margin.

Sport adherence

description: Due to the expanding aging population, Masters sport is becoming an increasingly popular activity for older adults (Weir et al., 2010). However, few resources are available to support lifelong sport adherence for middle-aged and older adults in competitive sport, or Masters athletes (MAs). The purpose of the thesis was to explore how MAs apply deliberate psychological strategies as a support to enhance their performance, experience, or adherence to the adult sport lifestyle. It also explored how mental performance consultants (MPCs) viewed the application of sport psychology to MAs, including content to which skills/strategies could be applied, and delivery approaches. In Manuscript 1, semi-structured interviews were conducted with eight Canadian MAs (Mage = 51, range 38-62; 3 males, 5 females) from 12 sports (10 individual, 2 team) to explore how they applied psychological skills/strategies as a support to the Masters sport experience. Data were thematically analyzed (Braun & Clark, 2012) deductively (Weinberg & Gould, 2015) and inductively. The results demonstrated that MAs used traditional mental skills predominantly to enhance performance, while novel Masters-specific skills were used to maintain sport adherence. MAs promptly illustrated sport psychology content, but were rather limited when discussing their methods/techniques. In Manuscript 2, five two-person semi- structured group interviews were pursued with ten professional Canadian MPCs (8 women, 2 men) who had experience consulting MAs. These interviews explored the content consultants delivered to MAs and whether there were implications of specific adult attributes associated with service delivery. Data were thematically analyzed (Braun & Clark, 2012) inductively. The results showed MPCs’ perceptions on psychological content they believed was highly pertinent in their consulting practice with MAs. Specifically, they described targeted content related to performance readiness, prioritizing sport, protecting/recovering sport enjoyment, and aging/self-compassionate considerations. MPCs also highlighted nuances related to approaches to consultation with adult sportspersons and the delivery of psychological services to MAs. In both studies with the MAs and the MPCs, interviewees described various barriers and constraints that influenced approaches to consultation and service delivery. Altogether, the corroborative results from both studies suggest the benefits of psychological support services for MAs, the use of MPCs’ services and expertise as an additional support to maintain lifelong sport activity, and provide a formative guide for content and approaches to delivery with the Masters clientele.

description: Spiro-substituted nitroxyl biradicals are widely used as reagents for dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP), which is especially important for biopolymer research. The main criterion for their applicability as polarizing agents is the value of the spin–spin exchange interaction parameter (J), which can vary considerably when different couplers are employed that link the radical moieties. This paper describes a study on biradicals, with a ferrocene-1,1′-diyl-substituted 1,3-diazetidine-2,4-diimine coupler, that have never been used before as DNP agents. We observed a substantial difference in the temperature dependence between Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectra of biradicals carrying either methyl or spirocyclohexane substituents and explain the difference using Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculation results. It was shown that the replacement of methyl groups by spirocycles near the N-O group leads to an increase in the contribution of conformers having J ≈ 0. The DNP gain observed for the biradicals with methyl substituents is three times higher than that for the spiro-substituted nitroxyl biradicals and is inversely proportional to the contribution of biradicals manifesting the negligible exchange interaction. The effects of nucleophiles and substituents in the nitroxide biradicals on the ring-opening reaction of 1,3-diazetidine and the influence of the ring opening on the exchange interaction were also investigated. It was found that in contrast to the methyl-substituted nitroxide biradical (where we observed the ring-opening reaction upon the addition of amines), the ring opening does not occur in the spiro-substituted biradical owing to a steric barrier created by the bulky cyclohexyl substituents.

description: We perform a theoretical study of non-equilibrium effects in charge transport through a hybrid single-electron transistor based on a small normal metal (N) island with the gate-controlled number of electrons, tunnel-coupled to voltage-biased superconducting (S) electrodes (SINIS). Focusing on the turnstile mode of the transistor operation with the gate voltage driven periodically, and electrons on the island being out of equilibrium, we find that the current quantization accuracy is a non-monotonic function of the relaxation rate $Γ_{\mathcal{F}}$ of the distribution function $\mathcal{F}(ε)$ on the island due to tunneling, as compared to the drive frequency $f$, electron-electron $1/τ_{ee}$ and electron-phonon $1/τ_{eph}$ relaxation rates. Surprisingly, in the strongly non-equilibrium regime, $f\gg Γ_{\mathcal{F}}\ggτ_{ee}^{-1},τ_{eph}^{-1}$, the turnstile current plateau is recovered, similarly to the ideal equilibrium regime, $τ_{eph}^{-1}\gg Γ_{\mathcal{F}}$. The plateau is destroyed in the quasiequilibrium regime when the electron-electron relaxation is faster than tunneling.

description: We present a microscopic theory of the equilibrium polariton condensate state of a semiconductor quantum well in a planar optical cavity. The theory accounts for the adjustment of matter excitations to the presence of a coherent photon field, predicts effective polariton-polariton interaction strengths that are weaker and condensate exciton fractions that are smaller than in the commonly employed exciton-photon model, and yields effective Rabi coupling strengths that depend on the detuning of the cavity photon energy relative to the bare exciton energy. The dressed quasiparticle bands that appear naturally in the theory provide a mechanism for electrical manipulation of polariton condensates.

description: This study provides insights into understanding social media utilization in the B2B selling process. More specifically, this research details how the different functional blocks of social media are leveraged to benefit the various stages of the selling process. This study adopts a multiple case study design, including six cases from technology-related Canadian firms. Overall, findings show that the functional blocks of social media are mostly leveraged in the prospecting and preapproach stages of the selling process. Furthermore, the marketing strategy of the seller firm seems to influence which functional blocks are leveraged in the process. At last, findings also show that social media should be complemented by analytical tools and traditional media to optimize the selling process with higher lead quality and to facilitate trust-building with potential and existing customers

description: The connection between accretion and jet production in accreting white dwarf binary systems, especially dwarf novae, is not well understood. Radio wavelengths provide key insights into the mechanisms responsible for accelerating electrons, including jets and outflows. Here we present densely-sampled radio coverage, obtained with the Arcminute MicroKelvin Imager Large Array, of the dwarf nova SS Cyg during its February 2016 anomalous outburst. The outburst displayed a slower rise (3 days per mag) in the optical than typical ones, and lasted for more than 3 weeks. Rapid radio flaring on timescales <1 hour was seen throughout the outburst. The most intriguing behavior in the radio was towards the end of the outburst where a fast, luminous ("giant"), flare peaking at ~20 mJy and lasting for 15 minutes was observed. This is the first time that such a flare has been observed in SS Cyg, and insufficient coverage could explain its non-detection in previous outbursts. These data, together with past radio observations, are consistent with synchrotron emission from plasma ejection events as being the origin of the radio flares. However, the production of the giant flare during the declining accretion rate phase remains unexplained within the standard accretion-jet framework and appears to be markedly different to similar patterns of behavior in X-ray binaries.

description: The bandstructure of bulk silicon has a six-fold valley degeneracy. Strain in the Si/SiGe quantum well system partially lifts the valley degeneracy, but the materials factors that set the splitting of the two lowest lying valleys are still under intense investigation. We propose a method for accurately determining the valley splitting in Si/SiGe double quantum dots embedded into a superconducting microwave resonator. We show that low lying valley states in the double quantum dot energy level spectrum lead to readily observable features in the cavity transmission. These features generate a "fingerprint" of the microscopic energy level structure of a semiconductor double quantum dot, providing useful information on valley splittings and intervalley coupling rates.

Surprises from quenches in long-range interacting systems: Temperature inversion and cooling

description: What happens when one of the parameters governing the dynamics of a long-range interacting system of particles in thermal equilibrium is abruptly changed (quenched) to a different value? While a short-range system, under the same conditions, will relax in time to a new thermal equilibrium with a uniform temperature across the system, a long-range system shows a fast relaxation to a nonequilibrium {\em quasistationary state} (QSS). The lifetime of such an off-equilibrium state diverges with the system size, and the temperature is non-uniform across the system. Quite surprisingly, the density profile in the QSS obtained after the quench is anticorrelated with the temperature profile in space, thus exhibiting the phenomenon of {\em temperature inversion}: denser regions are colder than sparser ones. We illustrate with extensive molecular dynamics simulations the ubiquity of this scenario in a prototypical long-range interacting system subject to a variety of quenching protocols, and in a model that mimics an experimental setup of atoms interacting with light in an optical cavity. We further demonstrate how a procedure of iterative quenching combined with filtering out the high-energy particles in the system may be employed to cool the system. Temperature inversion is observed in nature in some astrophysical settings; our results imply that such a phenomenon should be observable, and could even be exploitable to advantage, also in controlled laboratory experiments.

description: Software development needs continuous quality control for a timely detection and removal of quality problems. This includes frequent quality assessments, which need to be automated as far as possible to be feasible. One way of automation in assessing the security of software are application scanners that test an executing software for vulnerabilities. At present, common quality assessments do not integrate such scanners for giving an overall quality statement. This paper presents an integration of application scanners into a general quality assessment method based on explicit quality models and Bayesian nets. Its applicability and the detection capabilities of common scanners are investigated in a case study with two open-source web shops.

description: This is an ongoing research which aims to propose alternative solutions on management of making new technologies and innovations on the safety design of tall buildings. This paper examines the key ideas by presenting tall building project case studies from Japan and makes comparisons with overseas cases. The investigation focus of the case studies is, basically, to determine the "physical & organizational vulnerabilities" through the analysis of the management of knowledge during the project life-time. This paper briefly: 1) Describes the origins of knowledge management through the process of innovation management. 2) Defines the physical and organizational vulnerabilities of tall building projects and the necessities of innovations. 3) Points out the importance of code-plus-performance analysis based safety designs in relation to the knowledge and technology fusion aspects. 4) Discusses the sufficient combination of explicit and implicit codes used within the technology and knowledge acquisition process. 5) Identifies the critical issue of intelligent building automation systems to improve building safety. 6) Puts forth the most common policies which exist in Japanese and international organizations for developing innovation through case studies on tall building projects.

description: We study a family of Liénard--type equations. Such equations are used for the description of various processes in physics, mechanics and biology and also appear as traveling--wave reductions of some nonlinear partial differential equations. In this work we find new conditions for the integrability of this equations family. To this end we use an approach, which is bases on application of nonlocal transformations. By studying connections between this family of Liénard--type equations and type III Painlevé--Gambier equations, we obtain four new integrability criteria. We illustrate our results by providing examples of some integrable Liénard--type equations. We also discuss relationships between linearizability via nonlocal transformations of this family of Liénard--type equations and other integrability conditions for this family of equations.

description: The High Altitude Water Cherenkov (HAWC) high-energy γ-ray observatory was completed in march 2015 in central Mexico. The detector, consisting of 300 water tanks, is currently being upgraded to improve its performance at Multi-TeV energies, with a sparse array of small water Cherenkov tanks. It will extend the instrumental area by a factor of 4, and enhance the sensitivity at the highest energies. In this contribution, the current status of the observatory is presented, as well as the coming upgrade. The electronics and the readout system for the new sparse array of small water tanks are also desrcibed, and results from simulations performed to optimize the performance of the array are discussed.

description: We present the results of high-resolution valence-band photoemission spectroscopic study of SmB6 which shows evidence for a V-shaped density of states of surface origin within the bulk gap. The spectroscopy data is interpreted in terms of the existence of heavy 4f surface states, which may be useful in resolving the controversy concerning the disparate surface Fermi-surface velocities observed in experiments. Most importantly, we find that the temperature dependence of the valence-band spectrum indicates that a small feature appears at a binding energy of about -9 meV at low temperatures. We attribute this feature to a resonance caused by the spin-exciton scattering in SmB6 which destroys the protection of surface states due to time-reversal invariance and spin-momentum locking. The existence of a low-energy spin-exciton may be responsible for the scattering which suppresses the formation of coherent surface quasi-particles and the appearance of the saturation of the resistivity to temperatures much lower than the coherence temperature associated with the opening of the bulk gap.

description: We report a study on a series of lanthanum doped barium stannate-titanate (LBTS) ceramics towards correlating their microstructure with ferroelectric properties. The samples were prepared by solid state reaction technique and the XRD analysis indicated predominantly single phase microstructure. Scanning Electron Microscopy revealed that while a low La doping of 1 atomic % yielded inhibited grain growth in 1LBTS, higher amounts of La doping yield larger leafy grains. This peculiar grain growth and microstructure evolution could be attributed to the combination of the following two competing factors: (i) suppression of O vacancies due to La doping leading to grain growth inhibition and (ii) enhancement of mechanism leading to nucleation and growth of 2-D (leafy) grains for La doping higher than 2 atomic % due to eutectic phenomena. Dielectric permittivity measurements indicate that addition of La enhances diffused phase transition in BTS, but its frequency dependence is observed only at 2 atomic % La doping. This signature relaxor behaviour and the increase in the intensity of a particular Raman peak with La doping, as well as non-saturated PE hysteresis loops confirm the presence of polar nano-regions for 2 and 3 atomic % La doped BTS. However significant enhancement in dielectric permittivity could not be achieved due to reduced grain size.

description: We present multiple spectropolarimetric observations of the nearby Type Ia supernova (SN) 2011fe in M101, obtained before, during, and after the time of maximum apparent visual brightness. The excellent time coverage of our spectropolarimetry has allowed better monitoring of the evolution of polarization features than is typical, which has allowed us new insight into the nature of normal SNe Ia. SN 2011fe exhibits time-dependent polarization in both the continuum and strong absorption lines. At early epochs, red wavelengths exhibit a degree of continuum polarization of up to 0.4\%, likely indicative of a mild asymmetry in the electron-scattering photosphere. This behavior is more common in sub-luminous SNe Ia than in normal events, such as SN2011fe. The degree of polarization across a collection of absorption lines varies dramatically from epoch to epoch. During the earliest epoch a $λ$4600-5000 Å complex of absorption lines shows enhanced polarization at a different position angle than the continuum. We explore the origin of these features, presenting a few possible interpretations, without arriving at a single favored ion. During two epochs near maximum, the dominant polarization feature is associated with the Si{\sc ii} $λ$6355 Å absorption line. This is common for SNeIa, but for SN2011fe the polarization of this feature increases after maximum light, whereas for other SNeIa, that polarization feature was strongest before maximum light.
