title: Bearing witness: practices of journalistic witnessing in South Sudan
Creators: name: Stupart, Richard
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository
Year: 2023

description: This thesis explores the practices and normative tensions of journalists reporting on conflict in South Sudan, based on a combination of semi-structured interviews with journalists based in Nairobi, Kampala and Juba, as well as ethnographic observation of an investigative reporting trip to the Malakal protection of civilians site in Upper Nile state. This thesis addresses two research questions, asking howjournalists’ practices are enabled and constrained in the context of South Sudan, and what normative tensions arise during their practices of journalism. To these questions, this thesis develops three arguments. In the first, I argue that risk functions as both a constraint to the practices of journalistsworking in South Sudan, as well as an element of the practice itself. It can afford journalists epistemic authority, material benefits and recognition as ‘professional’. I also provide an account of media intimidation in South Sudan as it appears to journalists, and some of the tactics adopted to cope with this. In the second, I argue for the importance of affect/emotion as an integral part of the practice of journalism in conflict. I make the case that emotion is not simply ‘picked up’ in the course of tiring and stressful work, but is an important part of how practices of journalism in South Sudan successfully proceed. I suggest that the case of journalists in South Sudan raises a number of important questions for research into affect/emotion in practices of news production more generally. Finally, I argue that normative tensions experienced by journalists as moral conflicts suggest that this journalism operates within a humanitarian imaginary of the type described by Lilie Chouliaraki. Perceived ‘obligations to report’ and discomfort over whether or not to help individuals in certain cases are, I argue, examples of journalists’ double-interpellation as both spectators and witnesses to the suffering of others.

description: We consider quasi-linear, Hamiltonian perturbations of the cubic Schrödinger and of the cubic (derivative) Klein-Gordon equations on the $d$ dimensional torus. If $\varepsilon\ll1$ is the size of the initial datum, we prove that the lifespan of solutions is strictly larger than the local existence time $\varepsilon^{-2}$. More precisely, concerning the Schrödinger equation we show that the lifespan is at least of order $O(\varepsilon^{-4})$, in the Klein-Gordon case, we prove that the solutions exist at least for a time of order $O(\varepsilon^{-{8/3}^{-}})$ as soon as $d\geq3$. Regarding the Klein-Gordon equation, our result presents novelties also in the case of semi-linear perturbations: we show that the lifespan is at least of order $O(\varepsilon^{-{10/3}^-})$, improving, for cubic non-linearities and $d\geq4$, the general results in [17,24].

description: This study examined the clinical utility of the 7 Up 7 Down Inventory (7U7D) in youths (ages 5-18; N = 1737) presenting to outpatient mental health clinics. Caregivers and youths completed the 7U7D and a semi-structured interview to determine psychiatric diagnoses. Caregiver and youth-reported 7U7D scores significantly identified youth mood and bipolar disorders (areas under the curve .56 - .81, ps  <.05), with caregiver-report significantly outperforming youth-report. The 7U7D showed strong incremental validity after controlling for youth demographics and clinical characteristics. Cutoff scores were calculated to generate diagnostic likelihood ratios (DiLR) in a two-step fashion to utilize both hypomanic/manic (7U) and depression (7D) dimensions. 7D optimal cut scores yielded DiLRs between 1.55 and 3.26 for a mood disorder diagnosis. 7U Optimal cut scores yielded DiLRs between 1.00 and 2.11 for a BP diagnosis. The 7U7D demonstrates clinical utility for identifying youth mood disorders and BP from other psychiatric diagnoses.

Linguistic and situational context assists emotion concept acquisition in preschoolers
Creators: name: Shablack, Holly
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2017

description: Little work examines how emotion words are acquired by children. Linguistic evidence suggests children learn novel words by using the sentence structure in which the word is presented. Psychological research suggests children use situational context to understand emotion words. We examine the role of both in children’s (ages 3–5) perception of novel words denoting emotions. An exploratory archival analysis (Study 1; N=12) examined common sentence structures in adult-child discourse of emotions. In Study 2 (N=120) children viewed a prerecorded puppet conversation including a novel word in one of three sentence structures. After each video, children selected an image they believed represented the meaning of the word. In Study 3 (N=113) situational context was added through cartoons depicting an emotional scenario. Findings suggest that emotion images are chosen more when children are older, given more informative sentence structures, and when situational context implies an emotion is present.
Setting up and modelling of overflowing fed-batch cultures of Bacillus subtilis for the production and continuous removal of lipopeptides

description: This work is related to the setup of overflowing exponential fed-batch cultures (O-EFBC) derived from carbon limited EFBC dedicated to the production of mycosubtilin, an antifungal lipopeptide belonging to the iturin family. O-EFBC permits the continuous removal of the product from the bioreactor achieving a complete extraction of mycosubtilin. This paper also provides a dynamical Monod-based growth model of this process that is accurate enough to simulate the evolution of the specific growth rate and to correlate it to the mycosubtilin specific productivity. Two particular and dependant phenomena related to the foam overflow are taken into account by the model: the outgoing flow rate of a broth volume and the loss of biomass. Interestingly, the biomass concentration in the foam was found to be lower than the biomass concentration in the bioreactor relating this process to a recycling one. Parameters of this model are the growth yield on substrate and the maximal specific growth rate estimated from experiments led at feed rates of 0.062, 0.071 and 0.086 h --1. The model was extrapolated to five additional experiments carried out at feed rates of 0.008, 0.022, 0.040, 0.042 and 0.062 h --1 enabling the correlation of the mean specific growth rates with productivity results. Finally, a feed rate of 0.086 h --1 corresponding to a mean specific growth rate of 0.070 h --1 allowed a specific productivity of 1.27 mg of mycosubtilin g --1 of dried biomass h --1 .

description: This study aimed to replicate findings on face social trait and reward learning in the vocal domain. We aimed to investigate whether people prioritise learning about generosity values over reward values for vocal targets, as has been previously shown for face targets (Hackel, Doll & Amodio, 2015). Experiment 1 found that participants did not learn about either traits or reward through reinforcement with auditory stimuli (voices or short tone sequences). Experiment 2 found that participants did however learn about both traits and rewards through reinforcement with sequential presentation of visual stimuli (faces or slot machine icons).

description: A well-known open problem asks to show that $2^n+5$ is composite for almost all values of $n$. This was proposed by Gil Kalai as a possible Polymath project, and was posed originally by Christopher Hooley. We show that, assuming GRH and a form of the pair correlation conjecture, the answer to this problem is affirmative. We in fact do not need the full power of the pair correlation conjecture, and it suffices to assume a generalization of the Brun-Titchmarsh inequality for the Chebotarev density theorem that is implied by it. Our methods apply to any shifted exponential sequence of the form $a^n-b$ and show that, under the same assumptions, such numbers are $k$-almost primes for a density $0$ of natural numbers $n$. Furthermore, we show that $a^p-b$ is composite for almost all primes $p$ whenever $(a, b) \neq (2, 1)$.

description: We study the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) in the context of the Max-Cut problem. Near-term (noisy) quantum devices are only able to (accurately) execute QAOA at low circuit depths while QAOA requires a relatively high circuit-depth in order to "see" the whole graph. We introduce a classical pre-processing step that initializes QAOA with a biased superposition of all possible cuts in the graph, referred to as a warm-start. In particular, our initialization informs QAOA by a solution to a low-rank semidefinite programming relaxation of the Max-Cut problem. Our experimental results show that this variant of QAOA, called QAOA-Warm, is able to outperform standard QAOA on lower circuit depths with less training time (in the optimization stage for QAOA's variational parameters). We provide experimental evidence as well as theoretical intuition on performance of the proposed framework.

Loosely speaking, our results show that embedded minimal hypersurfaces with bounded index behave qualitatively like embedded stable minimal hypersurfaces, up to controlled errors. Several compactness/finiteness theorems follows our local picture.

description: We propose a new theory to characterize equilibrium topological phase with non-equilibrium quantum dynamics by introducing the concept of high-order topological charges, with novel phenomena being predicted. Through a dimension reduction approach, we can characterize a $d$-dimensional ($d$D) integer-invariant topological phase with lower-dimensional topological number quantified by high-order topological charges, of which the $s$th-order topological charges denote the monopoles confined on the $(s-1)$th-order band inversion surfaces (BISs) that are $(d-s+1)$D momentum subspaces. The bulk topology is determined by the $s$th order topological charges enclosed by the $s$th-order BISs. By quenching the system from trivial phase to topological regime, we show that the bulk topology of post-quench Hamiltonian can be detected through a high-order dynamical bulk-surface correspondence, in which both the high-order topological charges and high-order BISs are identified from quench dynamics. This characterization theory has essential advantages in two aspects. First, the highest ($d$th) order topological charges are characterized by only discrete signs of spin-polarization in zero dimension (i.e. the $0$th Chern numbers), whose measurement is much easier than the $1$st-order topological charges that are characterized by the continuous charge-related spin texture in higher dimensional space. Secondly, a more striking result is that a first-order high integer-valued topological charge always reduces to multiple highest-order topological charges with unit charge value, and the latter can be readily detected in experiment. The two fundamental features greatly simplify the characterization and detection of the topological charges and also topological phases, which shall advance the experimental studies in the near future.

description: Purpose – The great number of documents and records produced by universities leads to the creation of large archival collections within these Institutions. As a result, libraries and archival units apply new and innovative information systems to manage and exploit their archival collections for education and research purposes. Design/methodology/approach – The current research took place under the THE.ME.DO.COM EPAnEK (2014-2020) project which had as the main goal to develop two web platforms for preservation, documentation, management and dissemination of the University of Thessaly archival collections, which constituted its Historical Archive. For this purpose, the Archivematica, AtoM and VuFind open-source information systems were configured and integrated, while innovative metadata creation coding was created for the project. Findings – Digital archival items were preserved and enriched with high-quality metadata in Archivematica, uploaded and described according to international standards in AtoM and distributed with smart search routines with VuFind. The integrated platform implementation resulted in an efficient automated approach to managing the University of Thessaly archives and archival collections which comprised different digital object formats and included a high volume of digital items, making THE.ME.DO.COM a very successful project example. Originality/value – The University of Thessaly Historical Archive was used as a paradigm for implementing a new way to deal with complex archival collections. Other University Libraries or Archival Services could easily utilize the project results.

The stability of stratified spatially periodic shear flows at low Péclet number

description: This work addresses the question of the stability of stratified, spatially periodic shear flows at low Péclet number but high Reynolds number. This little-studied limit is motivated by astrophysical systems, where the Prandtl number is often very small. Furthermore, it can be studied using a reduced set of "low-Péclet-number equations" proposed by Lignieres [Astronomy & Astrophysics, 348, 933-939, 1999]. Through a linear stability analysis, we first determine the conditions for instability to infinitesimal perturbations. We formally extend Squire's theorem to the low-Péclet-number equations, which shows that the first unstable mode is always two-dimensional. We then perform an energy stability analysis of the low-Péclet-number equations and prove that for a given value of the Reynolds number, above a critical strength of the stratification, any smooth periodic shear flow is stable to perturbations of arbitrary amplitude. In that parameter regime, the flow can only be laminar and turbulent mixing does not take place. Finding that the conditions for linear and energy stability are different, we thus identify a region in parameter space where finite-amplitude instabilities could exist. Using direct numerical simulations, we indeed find that the system is subject to such finite-amplitude instabilities. We determine numerically how far into the linearly stable region of parameter space turbulence can be sustained.

description: Despite its age, quantum theory still suffers from serious conceptual difficulties. To create clarity, mathematical physicists have been attempting to formulate quantum theory geometrically and to find a rigorous method of quantization, but this has not resolved the problem. In this article we argue that a quantum theory recoursing to quantization algorithms is necessarily incomplete. To provide an alternative approach, we argue that the Schroedinger equation is a consequence of three partial differential equations governing the time evolution of a given probability density. These equations, discovered by E. Madelung, naturally ground the Schroedinger theory in Newtonian mechanics and Kolmogorovian probability theory. A variety of far-reaching consequences for the projection postulate, the correspondence principle, the measurement problem, the uncertainty principle, and the modelling of particle creation and annihilation are immediate. We also give a speculative interpretation of the equations following Bohm, Vigier and Tsekov, by claiming that quantum mechanical behavior is possibly caused by gravitational background noise.

description: We consider the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger equation in one space dimension, posed both on the line and on the circle. This model is known to be completely integrable and $L^2$-critical with respect to scaling. The first question we discuss is whether ensembles of orbits with $L^2$-equicontinuous initial data remain equicontinuous under evolution. We prove that this is true under the restriction $M(q)=\int |q|^2 < 4π$. We conjecture that this restriction is unnecessary. Further, we prove that the problem is globally well-posed for initial data in $H^{1/6}$ under the same restriction on $M$. Moreover, we show that this restriction would be removed by a successful resolution of our equicontinuity conjecture.

description: Purpose – This survey investigated the health information behaviour of undergraduate students at the University of West Attica. In particular, the survey took place among students of the Department of Archival, Library and Information Studies, where information literacy is taught and in the Department of Physiotherapy, where health subjects are taught. The aim was to discover if any or if both of the above target groups have adopted efficient health information behaviour. Design/methodology/approach – The survey investigated the following: the preferred formats of health information sources and the preferred search techniques of the two target groups; their preferred health information sources and the criteria they use to evaluate and trust a health-related source; the main criterion the participants use to evaluate the content of health information sources; and their perception of the term "information literacy". The methodological approach used was a mainly quantitative online survey administered to a sample from the two aforementioned target groups, within a limited time frame, in the winter of 2022. Findings - Physiotherapy students seem less adequately information literate than Archival, Library and Information Studies students. Originality/value – The findings of this comparative survey are unique in the Hellenic academic environment and lead to the suggestion that information literacy skills should be taught to every Department of the University.

description: We present analysis of observations of CO2 and OI emission in three comets to measure the CO2 abundance and evaluate the possibility of employing observations of OI emission in comets as a proxy for CO2. We obtained NIR imaging sensitive to CO2 of comets C/2012 K1 (PanSTARRS), C/2012 K5 (LINEAR), and 290P/Jager with the IRAC instrument on Spitzer. We acquired observations of OI emission in these comets with the ARCES echelle spectrometer mounted on the 3.5-meter telescope at Apache Point Observatory and observations of OH with the Swift observatory (PanSTARRS) and with Keck HIRES (Jager). The CO2/H2O ratios derived from the Spitzer images are 12.6 +/- 1.3% (PanSTARRS), 28.9 +/- 3.6% (LINEAR), and 31.3 +/- 4.2% (Jager). These abundances are derived under the assumption that contamination from CO emission is negligible. The CO2 abundance for PanSTARRS is close to the average abundance measured in comets at similar heliocentric distance to date, while the abundances measured for LINEAR and Jager are significantly larger than the average abundance. From the coma morphology observed in PanSTARRS and the assumed gas expansion velocity, we derive a rotation period for the nucleus of about 9.2 hours. Comparison of H2O production rates derived from ARCES and Swift data, as well as other observations, suggest the possibility of sublimation from icy grains in the inner coma. We evaluate the possibility that the OI emission can be employed as a proxy for CO2 by comparing CO2/H2O ratios inferred from the OI lines to those measured directly by Spitzer. We find that for PanSTARRS we can reproduce the observed CO2 abundance to an accuracy of ~20%. For LINEAR and Jager, we were only able to obtain upper limits on the CO2 abundance inferred from the OI lines. These upper limits are consistent with the CO2 abundances measured by Spitzer.

description: The pandemic due to Covid-19 created an unprecedented situation worldwide and radically changed the social situation in people’s life and work conditions. For education to function, the use of Information and Communication Technologies and new practices were adopted to build a new basis of communication between teachers and students. Teachers, during the period of the pandemic and in the phase of exclusion, kept the educational process “alive and active” in the values of learning and school. Nevertheless, their huge effort also caused negative consequences for them. This specific study is a part of a work that concerns teachers’ practical reports about their negative experiences from the use of Information and Communication Technologies during the Covid-19 period. The study captures the causes of the occurrence of teachers' mental and physical burnout due to the use of Information Systems, E-Learning, and Teleconferencing.

description: Time-resolved terahertz time-domain spectroscopy (THz-TDS) is an ideal tool for probing photoinduced nonequilibrium metallic and superconducting states. Here, we focus on the interpretation of the two-dimensional response function $Σ(ω;t)$ that it measures, examining whether it provides an accurate snapshot of the instantaneous optical conductivity, $σ(ω;t)$. For the Drude model with a time-dependent carrier density, we show that $Σ(ω;t)$ is not simply related to $σ(ω;t)$. The difference in the two response functions is most pronounced when the momentum relaxation rate of photocarriers is long, as would be the case in a system that becomes superconducting following pulsed photoexcitation. From the analysis of our model, we identify signatures of photoinduced superconductivity that could be seen by time-resolved THz-TDS.

Effective actions in ${\cal N}$=1, D5 supersymmetric gauge theories: harmonic superspace approach
Creators: name: Buchbinder, I. L.

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We consider the off-shell formulation of the 5D, $ {\cal N}$=1 super Yang-Mills and super Chern-Simons theories in harmonic superspace. Using such a formulation we develop a manifestly supersymmetric and gauge invariant approach to constructing the one-loop effective action both in super Yang-Mills and super Chern-Simons models. On the base of this approach we compute the leading low-energy quantum contribution to the effective action on the Abelian vector multiplet background. This contribution corresponds to $F^4$ invariant which is given in 5D superfield form.

Homogenization of biomechanical models for plant tissues

Subjects: subject: Analysis of PDEs (math.AP)

subject: 35B27

description: In this paper homogenization of a mathematical model for plant tissue biomechanics is presented. The microscopic model constitutes a strongly coupled system of reaction-diffusion-convection equations for chemical processes in plant cells, the equations of poroelasticity for elastic deformations of plant cell walls and middle lamella, and Stokes equations for fluid flow inside the cells. The chemical process in cells and the elastic properties of cell walls and middle lamella are coupled because elastic moduli depend on densities involved in chemical reactions, whereas chemical reactions depend on mechanical stresses. Using homogenization techniques we derive rigorously a macroscopic model for plant biomechanics. To pass to the limit in the nonlinear reaction terms, which depend on elastic strain, we prove the strong two-scale convergence of the displacement gradient and velocity field.

description: We investigate the ISM properties of 13 star-forming galaxies within the z~2 COSMOS cluster. We show that the cluster members have [NII]/Ha and [OIII]/Hb emission-line ratios similar to z~2 field galaxies, yet systematically different emission-line ratios (by ~0.17 dex) from the majority of local star-forming galaxies. We find no statistically significant difference in the [NII]/Ha and [OIII]/Hb line ratios or ISM pressures among the z~2 cluster galaxies and field galaxies at the same redshift. We show that our cluster galaxies have significantly larger ionization parameters (by up to an order of magnitude) than local star-forming galaxies. We hypothesize that these high ionization parameters may be associated with large specific star formation rates (i.e. a large star formation rate per unit stellar mass). If this hypothesis is correct, then this relationship would have important implications for the geometry and/or the mass of stars contained within individual star clusters as a function of redshift.

description: Abstract: Purpose - In the current online context, the work of historians and archivists crosses multiple levels. Archival institutions, digital public history research projects, and broader activity in cultural heritage management have shaped many new archival digital repositories. The purpose of this article is to review this kind of online activity in Greece and highlight relevant concerns for managing historical archives online. Design/methodology/approach - This article presents digital archival repositories of archival institutions, cultural and information organisations and history research projects. It highlights the need for classification by the creator to improve the evaluation of the content and architecture of digital repositories. Findings - A core point from the review is the need for more collaboration between scientists, as new technologies, media, and the web have created fluid boundaries between disciplines Originality/value - A convergence between research and academic institutions and memory institutions and the development of joint scientific projects is in the interest of the preservation of historical archives but also of the community to which the stakeholders involved in such projects are addressed.

Resonant Raman and photoluminescence spectra of suspended molybdenum disulfide

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: Raman and photoluminescence (PL) measurements were performed on suspended and supported MoS2 up to 6 trilayers (TLs). The difference in the dielectric environment of suspended and supported MoS2 does not lead to large differences in the PL or Raman spectra. Most of the apparent difference in the PL intensity can be explained by the interference effect except for 1TL MoS2. The positions of the Raman peaks are not much different between suspended and supported MoS2. The relative intensities, on the other hand, show some differences between suspended and supported samples. In particular, the inter-layer vibration modes are enhanced near resonance with C excitons, with the breathing modes becoming relatively stronger. Up to 4 breathing modes are resolved in suspended 6TL MoS2.

An Analysis of Success Plans and Performance Metrics for Rural Transit Systems in North Carolina
Creators: name: Stanfield, Charlie
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: Performance measurement and funding allocation based on these measurements are becoming increasingly popular in public transportation. Understanding what is important to transit systems is critical to properly assess them on their operational and administrative performance. My research goals were to determine how rural transit systems in North Carolina define success, what performance metrics the systems select for themselves, and why they selected those metrics. Each rural transit system was required by the North Carolina Department of Transportation to create a Success Plan for themselves that consisted of a mission statement, vision statement, values and a scorecard that contained performance metrics. My analysis of these Success Plans shows that rural transit systems broadly define their values based on customer service, safety, and reliability. However, aside from safety, the specific metrics that the systems use for evaluating their performance are not well-connected to these values. This lack of internal consistency within the Success Plans means that rural transit systems are not selecting performance metrics that complement their stated goals. This lack of internal consistency could have many causes and I conducted interviews with public transit administrators in North Carolina to try and understand the causes. From these interviews, I was able to determine that the lack of internal consistency in the plans could be partially attributed to the following: (1) system administrators were not aware of the importance of internally consistent plans; (2) system administrators had difficulty creating metrics; and (3) system administrators included metrics that they felt the state would want to see.
