description: We have studied transport properties of Nb/Al/AlOx/Nb tunnel junctions with ultrathin aluminum oxide layers formed by (i) thermal oxidation and (ii) plasma oxidation, before and after rapid thermal post-annealing of the completed structures at temperatures up to 550 deg C. Post-annealing at temperatures above 300 deg C results in a significant decrease of the tunneling conductance of thermally-grown barriers, while plasma-grown barriers start to change only at annealing temperatures above 450 deg C. Fitting the experimental I-V curves of the junctions using the results of the microscopic theory of direct tunneling shows that the annealing of thermally-grown oxides at temperatures above 300 deg C results in a substantial increase of their average tunnel barriers height, from ~1.8 eV to ~2.45 eV, versus the practically unchanged height of ~2.0 eV for plasma-grown layers. This difference, together with high endurance of annealed barriers under electric stress (breakdown field above 10 MV/cm) may enable all-AlOx and SiO2/AlOx layered "crested" barriers for advanced floating-gate memory applications.

description: Twin-field (TF) quantum key distribution (QKD) is highly attractive because it can beat the fundamental limit of secret key rate for point-to-point QKD without quantum repeaters. Many theoretical and experimental studies have shown the superiority of TFQKD in long-distance communication. All previous experimental implementations of TFQKD have been done over optical channels with symmetric losses. But in reality, especially in a network setting, the distances between users and the middle node could be very different. In this paper, we perform a first proof-of-principle experimental demonstration of TFQKD over optical channels with asymmetric losses. We compare two compensation strategies, that are (1) applying asymmetric signal intensities and (2) adding extra losses, and verify that strategy (1) provides much better key rate. Moreover, the higher the loss, the more key rate enhancement it can achieve. By applying asymmetric signal intensities, TFQKD with asymmetric channel losses not only surpasses the fundamental limit of key rate of point-to-point QKD for 50 dB overall loss, but also has key rate as high as $2.918\times10^{-6}$ for 56 dB overall loss. Whereas no keys are obtained with strategy (2) for 56 dB loss. The increased key rate and enlarged distance coverage of TFQKD with asymmetric channel losses guarantee its superiority in long-distance quantum networks.

The relationship between vulnerability and the criminal justice system
Creators: name: Ewin, Robert David
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2021

description: This thesis explores vulnerability, specifically in relation to vulnerable and intimidated witnesses (VIW) in criminal investigations, with a focus on investigative and legal practice. Existing research surrounding VIW’s in England and Wales has broadly focussed upon victims as participants, interviewing practices, and the effectiveness of measures to support VIW. This thesis focusses on policing and legal practitioners engaged in the process of criminal investigations and UK legal practice in relation to VIW. Three studies are triangulated to explore the concept of vulnerability at practitioner level, these are: a questionnaire, interviews, and a deliberative inquiry. The intention of this thesis is to improve practice around the identification of VIW’s and provide empirical knowledge surrounding the management and treatment of vulnerable people within current UK policing investigative practice. The findings of this research indicate that beliefs about witness vulnerability are influenced by the type of crime being investigated, assumptions about witness credibility, and underpinned in some cases by sporadic witness assessments. Police understandings about vulnerability are mindlessly confined to case specific, polarised, and politicised concepts with the term vulnerability being over-inclusive, therefore making it unclear to Policing who is vulnerable. There are beliefs within the legal profession surrounding physical presence in courts being best during cross-examination to serve justice. These problems exist due to the lack of evidence-based approaches within policing around vulnerability assessment, and deficient practices to deal with the impacts of mindlessness and empathy fatigue. Six principals of vulnerability are proposed to improve practice: Principal 1: Co-constructed Assessment; Principal 2: Evidence-based and co-designed active organisational communication; Principal 3: Evidence-based Wellbeing Regime; Principal 4: Organisational Vulnerability Mindfulness; Principal 5: Active Vulnerability Justice; Principal 6: Evidence-based Vulnerability Training.
title: Evidence for the Use of Dynamic Maximum Normalization Method of Muscle Activation During Weight Back Squats
Creators: name: Maddox, Eva
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries
Year: 2021

description: The purpose of this study was to evaluate intra and inter-participant variability and reliability of muscle activations when analyzed using maximum voluntary isometric contractions (MVIC) and dynamic maximum (DMVC) normalization methods. Muscle activations were collected on twenty-seven participants (13 females, 14 males) performing one-repetition maximum (1RM) and submaximum (80%) back squats. Data from submaximum squats were normalized to MVICs and DMVCs. Data were compared using intra-class correlations over two testing days, variance ratio, and coefficients of variation. Mixed-model ANOVAs were used to elucidate the influence on intra- (method) and inter- (sex) subject variability. Reliability levels were good for rectus femoris (RF) (Interclass correlation coefficient (ICC): 0.776), vastus medialis (VM) (ICC: 0.820), and biceps femoris (BF) (ICC: 0.822) for DMVC across testing sessions. Reliability levels were also good for RF (ICC: 0.735) and BF (ICC: 0.795) during MVIC across testing sessions. Reliability of VM during MVICs was moderate, reaching an ICC of 0.660. Variance Ratio, peak coefficient of variation (CV), and mean CV for all muscles were reduced by 24%, 48%, and 56% in DMVC compared to MVIC, respectively. A significant normalization method by sex interaction was found for both peak and mean BF activation levels (p=0.005 and p=0.007, respectively). Post hoc tests revealed that differences between normalization methods were more pronounced in females than males for both peak (T=3.043, p=0.005, d=1.171) and mean (T=2.821, p=0.013, d=1.103) activations. Post hoc tests also found greater sex differences when normalizing to MVIC than DMVC for both peak (T=2.541, p=0.026, d=0.757) and mean (T=2.629, p=0.022, d=0.920) BF activations.
A Robust Method for Image Stitching

description: We propose a novel method for large-scale image stitching that is robust against repetitive patterns and featureless regions in the imagery. In such cases, state-of-the-art image stitching methods easily produce image alignment artifacts, since they may produce false pairwise image registrations that are in conflict within the global connectivity graph. Our method augments the current methods by collecting all the plausible pairwise image registration candidates, among which globally consistent candidates are chosen. This enables the stitching process to determine the correct pairwise registrations by utilizing all the available information from the whole imagery, such as unambiguous registrations outside the repeating pattern and featureless regions. We formalize the method as a weighted multigraph whose nodes represent the individual image transformations from the composite image, and whose sets of multiple edges between two nodes represent all the plausible transformations between the pixel coordinates of the two images. The edge weights represent the plausibility of the transformations. The image transformations and the edge weights are solved from a non-linear minimization problem with linear constraints, for which a projection method is used. As an example, we apply the method in a large-scale scanning application where the transformations are primarily translations with only slight rotation and scaling component. Despite these simplifications, the state-of-the-art methods do not produce adequate results in such applications, since the image overlap is small, which can be featureless or repetitive, and misalignment artifacts and their concealment are unacceptable.

description: New observations of the neutral hydrogen (HI) in and around the line of sight of the Sculptor dwarf spheroidal (dSph) are presented. The data obtained with the single-dish Parkes telescope cover a large area of 7\degr x 7\degr in the direction of the dwarf, and have resolutions of 15\farcm x 1.12 km/s. The Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) was used to map a smaller area of 2\degr x 2\degr centered on the direction of the dwarf with higher resolutions (350\arcsec x 140\arcsec x 1.65 km/s). Many HI structures having velocities outside the range of the normal Galactic disk velocities were detected, including the two Sculptor clouds (northeast and southwest) of Carignan et al. (1998, C98). The present study shows the total extent of the C98 clouds. We derived heliocentric radial velocities for the NE and SW clouds of 100.2\pm 0.9 km/s and 105.1\pm 0.3 km/s, respectively. The intensity-weighted mean HI velocity for both clouds is 104.1\pm 0.4 km/s. The mass of each cloud is (4.1\pm 0.2) x 10^4 M_\odot (NE cloud) and (1.93\pm 0.02) x 10^5 M_\odot (SW cloud) at the Sculptor dSph distance (79 kpc).

description: An integrable Anderson-like impurity model in a correlated host is derived from a gl(2$|$1)-symmetric transfer matrix by means of the Quantum-Inverse-Scattering-Method (QISM). Using the Quantum Transfer Matrix technique, free energy contributions of both the bulk and the impurity are calculated exactly. As a special case, the limit of a localized moment in a free bulk (Kondo limit) is performed in the Hamiltonian and in the free energy. In this case, high- and low-temperature scales are calculated with high accuracy.

description: Let $f\colon Y \to X$ be a proper flat morphism of locally noetherian schemes. Then, the locus in $X$ over which $f$ is smooth is stable under generization. We prove that under suitable assumptions on the formal fibers of $X$, the same property holds for other local properties of morphisms, even if $f$ is only closed and flat. Our proof of this statement reduces to a purely local question known as Grothendieck's localization problem. To answer Grothendieck's problem, we provide a general framework that gives a uniform treatment of previously known cases of this problem, and also solves this problem in new cases, namely for weak normality, seminormality, $F$-rationality, and the property "Cohen-Macaulay and $F$-injective." For the weak normality statement, we prove that weak normality always lifts from Cartier divisors. We also solve Grothendieck's localization problem for terminal, canonical, and rational singularities in equal characteristic zero.

description: Recognition and binding of specific sites on DNA by proteins is central for many cellular functions such as transcription, replication, and recombination. In the process of recognition, a protein rapidly searches for its specific site on a long DNA molecule and then strongly binds this site. Here we aim to find a mechanism that can provide both a fast search (1-10 sec) and high stability of the specific protein-DNA complex ($K_d=10^{-15}-10^{-8}$ M). Earlier studies have suggested that rapid search involves the sliding of a protein along the DNA. Here we consider sliding as a one-dimensional (1D) diffusion in a sequence-dependent rough energy landscape. We demonstrate that, in spite of the landscape's roughness, rapid search can be achieved if 1D sliding is accompanied by 3D diffusion. We estimate the range of the specific and non-specific DNA-binding energy required for rapid search and suggest experiments that can test our mechanism. We show that optimal search requires a protein to spend half of time sliding along the DNA and half diffusing in 3D. We also establish that, paradoxically, realistic energy functions cannot provide both rapid search and strong binding of a rigid protein. To reconcile these two fundamental requirements we propose a search-and-fold mechanism that involves the coupling of protein binding and partial protein folding. Proposed mechanism has several important biological implications for search in the presence of other proteins and nucleosomes, simultaneous search by several proteins etc. Proposed mechanism also provides a new framework for interpretation of experimental and structural data on protein-DNA interactions.

description: Understanding stress-strain relationships in arteries is important for fundamental investigations in mechanobiology. Here we demonstrate the essential role of chemoelasticity in determining the mechanical properties of arterial tissues. Stepwise stress-relaxation uniaxial tensile tests were carried out on samples of porcine thoracic aortas immersed in a hyperosmotic solution. The tissue deformations were tracked using optical coherence tomography (OCT) during the tensile tests and digital volume correlation (DVC) was used to obtain measurements of depth-resolved strains across the whole thickness of the tested aortas. The hyperosmotic solution exacerbated chemoelastic effects, and we were able to measure different manifestations of these chemoelastic effects: swelling of the media inducing a modification of its optical properties, existence of a transverse tensile strain. For the first time ever to our best knowledge, 3D strains induced by chemoelastic effects in soft tissues were quantified thanks to the OCT-DVC method. Without doubt, chemoelasticity plays an essential role in arterial mechanobiology in vivo and future work should focus on characterizing chemoelastic effects in arterial walls under physiological and disease conditions. Statement of significance: Chemoelasticity, coupling osmotic phenomena and mechanical stresses, is essential in soft tissue mechanobiology. For the first time ever, we measure and analyze 3D strain fields induced by these chemoelastic effects thanks to the unique combination of OCT imaging and digital volume correlation.

description: Euler's transformation formula for the Gauss hypergeometric function 2F1 is extended to hypergeometric functions of higher order. Unusually, the generalized transformation constrains the hypergeometric function parameters algebraically but not linearly. Its consequences for hypergeometric summation are explored. It has as corollary a summation formula of Slater. From this formula new one-term evaluations of 2F1(-1) and 3F2(1) are derived, by applying transformations in the Thomae group. Their parameters are also constrained nonlinearly. Several new one-term evaluations of 2F1(-1) with linearly constrained parameters are derived as well.

description: Conodipara Hedqvist
 Turneria Hedqvist 1969: 177. Type species: Turneria scutellata Hedqvist (orig. desig. and by monotypy). [Preoccupied] Conodipara Hedqvist 1972: 58. [Replacement name for Turneria, preoccupied by Turneria Forel 1895].
 Diagnosis: Both sexes of Conodipara can be easily identified based on two autapomorphic features: a pair of projections on the dorso-lateral surface of the nucha and an L-shaped petiole, which is bent downward at 90°. No other diparines possess either of these features.
 Discussion: In the phylogenetic analysis, Conodipara + (Conophorisca, Myrmicolelaps) was recovered as monophyletic based on 5 synapomorphies: the loss of sexual dimorphism, filiform antennae, a 2-segmented clava, posterior surface of mesopleuron heavily sculptured, and presence of a long petiole. Conodipara is also basal in a two-branch clade in which Pyramidophoriella occupies the basal position in the other branch. This clade was united by 3 synapomorphies, which include a conical scutellum, a reduced metanotum, and a posteriorly rising propodeum.

description: We derive central values and logarithmic gradients for the Hbeta, Mg and Fe indices of 35 early-type galaxies in the Coma cluster. We find that pure elliptical galaxies have on average slightly higher velocity dispersions, lower Hbeta, and higher metallic line-strengths than galaxies with disks (S0). The gradients strongly correlate with the gradients of sigma, but only weakly with the central index values and galaxy velocity dispersion. Using stellar population models with variable element abundance ratios from Thomas, Maraston & Bender (2003a) we derive average ages, metallicities and [alpha/Fe] ratios in the center and at the effective radius. We find that the [alpha/Fe] ratio correlates with velocity dispersion and drives 30% of the Mg-sigma relation, the remaining 70% being caused by metallicity variations. We derive negative metallicity gradients (-0.16 dex per decade) that are significantly flatter than what is expected from gaseous monolithic collapse models, pointing to the importance of mergers in the galaxy formation history. The gradients in age are negligible, implying that no significant residual star formation has occurred either in the center or in the outer parts of the galaxies, and that the stellar populations at different radii must have formed at a common epoch. For the first time we derive the gradients of the [alpha/Fe] ratio and find them very small on the mean. Hence, [alpha/Fe] enhancement is not restricted to galaxy centers but it is a global phenomenon. Our results imply that the Mg-sigma local relation inside a galaxy, unlike the global Mg-sigma relation, must be primarily driven by metallicity variations alone.

description: For orbital-free {\it ab initio} molecular dynamics, especially on systems in extreme thermodynamic conditions, we provide the first pseudo-potential-adapted generalized gradient approximation (GGA) functional for the non-interacting free energy. This is achieved by systematic finite-temperature extension of our recent LKT ground state non-interacting kinetic energy GGA functional (Phys. Rev. B \textbf{98}, 041111(R) (2018)). We test the performance of the new functional first via static lattice calculations on crystalline aluminum and silicon. Then we compare deuterium equation of state results against both path-integral Monte Carlo and conventional (orbital-dependent) Kohn-Sham results. The new functional, denoted LKTF, outperforms the previous best semi-local free energy functional, VT84F (Phys.\ Rev.\ B \textbf{88}, 161108(R) (2013)), and provides modestly faster simulations. We also discuss subtleties of identification of kinetic and entropic contributions to non-interacting free-energy functionals obtained by extension from ground state orbital-free kinetic energy functionals.

The source was clearly detected with all three X-ray and gamma-ray instruments on board. GRS 1915+105 was in a highly variable state, as demonstrated by the JEM X-2 and ISGRI lightcurves. These and simultaneous RXTE/PCA lightcurves point to a novel type of variability pattern in the source. In addition, we fit the combined JEM X-2 and ISGRI spectrum between 3-300 keV with a disk blackbody + powerlaw model leading to typical parameter values found earlier at similar luminosity levels. A new transient, IGR J19140+098, was discovered during the present observation.

This induces an effective attraction between walkers mediated by the medium, which can be regarded as a space metric, giving rise to a statistical mechanics toy model either for gravity, motion through deformable matter or adaptable geometry. In the strong-deformability regime, we find that diffusion is initially described by the porous medium equation, thus yielding subdiffusive behavior of an initially localized cloud of particles. Indeed, while the average width of a single cloud will sustain a $σ\sim t^{1/2}$ growth, the combined width of the whole ensemble will grow like $σ\sim t^{1/3}$ in a certain time regime. This difference can be accounted for by the strong correlations between the particles, which we explore indirectly through the fluctuations of the center of mass of the cloud and the expected value of the experienced density, defined as the average density measured by the particles themselves.

description: We report new astrometric and spectroscopic observations of the star S2 orbiting the massive black hole in the Galactic Center, which were taken at the ESO VLT with the adaptive optics assisted, near-IR camera NAOS/CONICA and the near-IR integral field spectrometer SPIFFI. We use these data to determine all orbital parameters of the star with high precision, including the Sun-Galactic Center distance, which is a key parameter for calibrating stellar standard candles and an important rung in the extragalactic distance ladder. Our deduced value of Ro = 8.0 +/- 0.4 kpc is the most accurate primary distance measurement to the center of the Milky Way and has minimal systematic uncertainties of astrophysical origin. It is in excellent agreement with other recent determinations of Ro.

description: Transport properties of graphene - superconductor junction has been studied extensively to understand the interplay of the relativistic Dirac quasiparticles and superconductivity. Though shot noise measurements in graphene has been performed to realize many theoretical predictions, both at zero magnetic field as well as quantum Hall (QH) regime, its junction with superconductor remain unexplored. Here, we have carried out the shot noise measurements in an edge contacted bilayer graphene - Niobium superconductor junction at zero magnetic field as well as QH regime. At the Dirac point we have observed a Fano factor ~ 1/3 above the superconducting gap and a transition to an enhanced Fano factor ~ 0.5 below the superconducting gap. By changing the carrier density we have found a continuous reduction of Fano factor for both types of carriers, however the enhancement of Fano factor within the superconducting gap by a factor of ~ 1.5 is always preserved. The enhancement of shot noise is also observed in the QH regime, where the current is carried by the edge state, below the critical magnetic field and within the superconducting gap. These observations clearly demonstrate the enhanced charge transport at the graphene-superconductor interface.

description: In general, the constituents of the bulk matter produced in heavy-ion collisions carry, besides electric charge, multiple other conserved quantum numbers like baryon number and strangeness. Therefore, an electric field will not only generate an electric current but, at the same time, also currents in baryon number and strangeness. We propose that the impact of the electric field on these conserved currents should be characterized by additional transport coefficients, which we call cross-conductivities. In this paper, we introduce and present a calculation of these cross-conductivities from the Green-Kubo formalism within the transport code SMASH for different chemical compositions of hadron resonance gases. We find that the coefficients underlie an ordering in the active degrees of freedom and that thus the chemical composition of the system plays a crucial role. Further, we argue that in future comparisons of lattice QCD calculations with these findings, one could constrain which degrees of freedom and their corresponding charge properties are relevant for the QCD dynamics of the system.

description: Purpose: Recently the authors presented a technique that allows corneal thickness measurements along any meridian from optical sections obtained using a rotary scanning system. This paper presents 3-D mapping of the corneal thickness and topography of both corneal surfaces, obtained with the rotary system. Method: Corneal thickness and topography are computed from optical sections obtained by illumination with a collimated beam expanded in a fan by a small cylindrical lens. This lens is provided with motor driven rotation in order to perform automated rotary scan of the whole cornea. Two cameras are used to capture the images of the optical sections. Results: With this system it is possible to obtain 3-D representation of the corneal thickness as well as corneal topography. Corneal thickness and elevation maps are shown. Conclusions: Although still under development, this new optical system allows the measurement of the thickness of the whole cornea as well as 3-D mapping of both corneal surfaces.

description: We use multiple quantum (MQ) NMR dynamics of a gas of spin-carrying molecules in nanocavities at high and low temperatures for an investigation of many-particle entanglement. A distribution of MQ NMR intensities is obtained at high and low temperatures in a system of 201 spins 1/2. The second moment of the distribution, which provides a lower bound on the quantum Fisher information, sheds light on the many-particle entanglement in the system. The dependence of the many-particle entanglement on the temperature is investigated. Almost all spins are entangled at low temperatures.

description: Let p be a prime and let F_pbar be the algebraic closure of the finite field of p elements. Let f(x) be any one variable rational function over F_pbar with n poles of orders d_1, ...,d_n. Suppose p is coprime to d_i for every i. We prove that there exists a Hodge polygon, depending only on d_i's, which is a lower bound to the Newton polygon of L functions of exponential sums of f(x). Moreover, we show that these two polygons coincide if p=1 mod d_i for every i=1,...,n. As a corollary, we obtain a tight lower bound of Newton polygon of Artin-Schreier curve.

description: We study mimetic gravity in the presence of a DBI-like term which is a non-canonical setup of the scalar field's derivatives. We consider two general cases with varying and constant sound speeds and construct the potentials for both the DBI and Mimetic DBI models. By considering the power-law scale factor as $a=a_{0}\,t^{n}$, we seek for the observational viability of these models. We show that, the Mimetic DBI model in some ranges of the parameters space is free of ghost and gradient instabilities. By studying $r-n_{s}$ and $α_{s}-n_{s}$ behavior in confrontation with Planck2018 data, we find some constraints on the model's parameters. We show that for the case with varying sound speed, although power-law DBI inflation is not consistent with Planck2018 TT, TE, EE+low E+lensing data, but the Mimetic DBI inflation is consistent with Planck2018 TT, TE, EE+low E+lensing data at 95$\%$ CL, in some ranges of the model's parameters space as $40\leq n \leq 55$ where the model is instabilities-free in these ranges of parameters too. For the constant sound speed, by adopting some sample values of $c_{s}$, we study both DBI and Mimetic DBI model numerically and find $n\sim 10^{2}$ for DBI model and $n\sim 10$ for Mimetic DBI model. We also compare the results with Planck2018 TT, TE, EE+low E+lensing+BK14+BAO data and see that the DBI and Mimetic DBI model with varying sound speed are ruled out with these joint data. However, these models with constant sound speed are consistent with Planck2018 TT, TE, EE+low E+lensing+BK14+BAO data with $n\sim 10^{2}$ for DBI model and $n\sim 10$ for Mimetic DBI model. In this case, we find some tighter constraints on the corresponding sound speed.
