description: We report a study of soliton self-frequency shifting in hydrogen-filled hollow-core fiber. The combination of hydrogen and short 40-fs input pulses underlies clean and efficient generation of Raman solitons between 1080 and 1600 nm. With 240-nJ input pulses, the Raman soliton energy ranges from 110 to 20 nJ over that wavelength range, and the pulse duration is approximately 45 fs. In particular, 70-nJ and 42-fs pulses are generated at 1300 nm. Numerical simulations agree reasonably well with experiments and predict that microjoule-energy tunable pulses should be possible with higher-energy input pulses.

description: The Gravitational wave high-energy Electromagnetic Counterpart All-sky Monitor (GECAM) satellite consists of two small satellites. Each GECAM payload contains 25 gamma ray detectors (GRD) and 8 charged particle detectors (CPD). GRD is the main detector which can detect gamma-rays and particles and localize the Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRB),while CPD is used to help GRD to discriminate gamma-ray bursts and charged particle bursts. The GRD makes use of lanthanum bromide (LaBr3) crystal readout by SiPM. As the all available SiPM devices belong to commercial grade, quality assurance tests need to be performed in accordance with the aerospace specifications. In this paper, we present the results of quality assurance tests, especially a detailed mechanism analysis of failed devices during the development of GECAM. This paper also summarizes the application experience of commercial-grade SiPM devices in aerospace payloads, and provides suggestions for forthcoming SiPM space applications.

description: We study two homogeneous supersymmetric extensions for the $f(R)$ modified gravity model of Starobinsky with the FLRW metric. The actions are defined in terms of a superfield $\mathcal{R}$ that contains the FLRW scalar curvature. One model has N=1 local supersymmetry, and its bosonic sector is the Starobinsky action; the other action has N=2, its bosonic sector contains, in additional to Starobinsky, a massive scalar field without self-interaction. As expected, the bosonic sectors of these models are consistent with cosmic inflation, as we show by solving numerically the classical dynamics. Inflation is driven by the $R^2$ term during the large curvature regime. In the N=2 case, the additional scalar field remains in a low energy state during inflation. Further, by means of an additional superfield, we write equivalent tensor-scalar-like actions from which we can give the Hamiltonian formulation.

The three-systems model and self efficacy theory : piano performance anxiety
Creators: name: Craske, Michelle Genevieve
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This study examined contrasting predicitions from Self Efficacy theory and the Three-Systems model of fear and anxiety, in the context of musical performance anxiety. Further experimental evidence was sought for Hodgson and Rachmans' (1974) hypotheses derived from the three-systems model, and for Bandura's predicted relationships between the construct of self efficacy and behavioural, physiological and verbal response systems. Pianists, who rated themselves as either 'relatively anxious' or 'relatively nonanxious' solo performers, were asked to play a musical piece under two conditions. First, the pianists played alone under non-evaluative conditions. Second, they played before an audience and videocamera under evaluative conditions. Measures were taken of each response system during both performance conditions; behavioural measures included performance quality and a timed checklist of observable signs of anxiety; self report measures included the State Anxiety scale, SUD scales, Self Statement scales and several self efficacy scales; and autonomic measures, recorded continuously via telemtry, included heart rate, respiration and skin conductance. The audience condition was found to elicit more intense emotional responses in relatively anxious pianists; this condition elicited less intense emotional responses in relatively nonanxious pianists. These group effects were enhanced when extreme scorers were analysed. In the audience condition, the relatively anxious group exhibited increased levels of anxiety in each of the response systems (i.e. synchrony), while desynchrony was observed in the relatively nonanxious group. Correlations among the dependent measures were generally weak, but concordance was most often observed when intense emotional responses were elicited. The results obtained lent support to the three-systems model. In contrast to Bandura's predictions, self efficacy did not correlate with levels of anxiety in each response system. Issues raised by the study included the importance of multiple-system measurement, treatment implications, contrasts between 'analogue' and 'clinical' populations, and the complexity of the phenomenon of anxiety.

description: We prove that any Parseval wavelet frame is the projection of an orthonormal wavelet basis for a representation of the Baumslag-Solitar group $$BS(1,2)=< u,t | utu^{-1}=t^2>.$$ We give a precise description of this representation in some special cases, and show that for wavelet sets, it is related to symbolic dynamics. We show that the structure of the representation depends on the analysis of certain finite orbits for the associated symbolic dynamics. We give concrete examples of Parseval wavelets for which we compute the orthonormal dilations in detail; we show that there are examples of Parseval wavelet sets which have infinitely many non-isomorphic orthonormal dilations.

(P. anceps species group)
Material. 1 female (SIO-BIC C14514), Guguan Island, station AKM-GUG-02.
Remarks. The sole female specimen is referred to a species of the Pagurixus anceps (Forest 1957) group, but still differs from known species of the group in the mesial margin of the right cheliped dactylus bordered with a distinct, denticulated ridge. The lack of dorsomesial spines on the right cheliped carpus (except for a tubercle at dorsomesial distal angle) and the possession of paired gonopores are also characteristic. It is likely that the present specimen represents an undescribed species, but we feel hesitation to formally describe a new species based only on a single, incomplete female specimen. Formal description of a new species is deferred in the hope that additional specimens become available for study.

Development of transverse flow at small and large opacities in conformal kinetic theory

description: We employ an effective kinetic description, based on the Boltzmann equation in the relaxation time approximation, to study the space-time dynamics and development of transverse flow of small and large collision systems. By combining analytical insights in the small opacity limit with numerical simulations at larger opacities, we are able to describe the development of transverse flow from very small to very large opacities. Suprisingly, we find that deviations between kinetic theory and hydrodynamics persist even in the limit of very large opacities, which can be attributed to the presence of the early pre-equilibrium phase.

description: The dynamics of magnetization in the presence of spin-transfer torque was studied. We derived the equation for the motion of magnetization in the presence of a spin current by using the local equilibrium assumption in non-equilibrium thermodynamics. We show that, in the resultant equation, the ratio of the Gilbert damping constant, $α$, and the coefficient, $β$, of the current-induced torque, called non-adiabatic torque, depends on the relaxation time of the fluctuating field $τ_{c}$. The equality $α=β$ holds when $τ_c$ is very short compared to the time scale of magnetization dynamics. We apply our theory to current-induced magnetization reversal in magnetic multilayers and show that the switching time is a decreasing function of $τ_{c}$.

description: The essay discusses the effects produced by Pasolini’s use of the author’s voice, an aspect of his practice that has not previously been studied. In his cinema, Pasolini’s voice changes according to the function of his presence. The use of voice is part of Pasolini’s creative process, and he treats it just as he does a manipulable image. When he presents himself as the author, as in Appunti per un’Orestiade africana (1970) and Comizi d’amore (1963), the audience hears his real voice. When he plays a character in a fictional narrative, as in the case of Giotto’s pupil and Chaucer, his voice is dubbed. In Edipo re (1967), where Pasolini played the apparently marginal role of the High Priest, dubbing is also far from a random aesthetic element. Pasolini’s use of dubbing can in fact be traced to specific practices of authorial control. In La sequenza del fiore di carta (1969), for example, the author’s voice represents his epistemic authority; in Love Meetings, it is a subtle and subversive queer intervention.

description: We interpret the well known fact that the equations for light rays in the Kottler or Schwarzschild-de Sitter metric are independent of the cosmological constant in terms of the projective equivalence of the optical metric for any value of Λ. We explain why this does not imply that lensing phenomena are independent of Λ. Motivated by this example, we find a large collection of one-parameter families of projectively equivalent metrics including both the Kottler optical geometry and the constant curvature metrics as special cases. Using standard constructions for geodesically equivalent metrics we find classical and quantum conserved quantities and relate these to known quantities.

Adiabatic quantum dynamics of a random Ising chain across its quantum critical point

description: We present here our study of the adiabatic quantum dynamics of a random Ising chain across its quantum critical point. The model investigated is an Ising chain in a transverse field with disorder present both in the exchange coupling and in the transverse field. The transverse field term is proportional to a function $Γ(t)$ which, as in the Kibble-Zurek mechanism, is linearly reduced to zero in time with a rate $τ^{-1}$, $Γ(t)=-t/τ$, starting at $t=-\infty$ from the quantum disordered phase ($Γ=\infty$) and ending at $t=0$ in the classical ferromagnetic phase ($Γ=0$). We first analyze the distribution of the gaps -- occurring at the critical point $Γ_c=1$ -- which are relevant for breaking the adiabaticity of the dynamics. We then present extensive numerical simulations for the residual energy $E_{\rm res}$ and density of defects $ρ_k$ at the end of the annealing, as a function of the annealing inverse rate $τ$. %for different lenghts of the chain. Both the average $E_{\rm res}(τ)$ and $ρ_k(τ)$ are found to behave logarithmically for large $τ$, but with different exponents, $[E_{\rm res}(τ)/L]_{\rm av}\sim 1/\ln^ζ(τ)$ with $ζ\approx 3.4$, and $[ρ_k(τ)]_{\rm av}\sim 1/\ln^{2}(τ)$. We propose a mechanism for $1/\ln^2τ$-behavior of $[ρ_k]_{\rm av}$ based on the Landau-Zener tunneling theory and on a Fisher's type real-space renormalization group analysis of the relevant gaps. The model proposed shows therefore a paradigmatic example of how an adiabatic quantum computation can become very slow when disorder is at play, even in absence of any source of frustration.

description: We present two-dimensional gas-kinematic maps of the central region in Centaurus A. The adaptive optics (AO) assisted SINFONI data from the VLT have a resolution of 0.12" in K-band. The ionized gas species (Br_gamma, [FeII], [SiVI]) show a rotational pattern that is increasingly overlaid by non-rotational motion for higher excitation lines in direction of Cen A's radio jet. The emission lines of molecular hydrogen (H_2) show regular rotation and no distortion due to the jet. The molecular gas seems to be well settled in the gravitational potential of the stars and the central supermassive black hole and we thus use it as a tracer to model the mass in the central +/-1.5". These are the first AO integral-field observations on the nucleus of Cen A, enabling us to study the regularity of the rotation around the black hole, well inside the radius of influence, and to determine the inclination angle of the gas disk in a robust way. The gas kinematics are best modeled through a tilted-ring model that describes the warped gas disk; its mean inclination angle is ~34deg and the mean position angle of the major axis is ~155deg. The best-fit black hole mass is M_BH~4.5x10^7 Msolar, based on a "kinematically hot" disk model where the velocity dispersion is included through the Jeans equation. This black hole mass estimate is somewhat lower than, but consistent with the mass values previously derived from ionized gas kinematics. It is also consistent with the stellar dynamical measurement from the same AO observations, which we present in a separate paper. It brings Cen A in agreement with the M_BH-sigma relation.

Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: Targum Association
Year: 1948

description: Some University historians indicate that the Targum was first published as an annual in 1867, but of this we have no extant evidence. In January 1869, the Targum as we now know it, made its appearance as a monthly paper that concerned itself with student “literary contributions” and college news as well as serving as a vehicle for bringing news to alumni and the general public. The newspaper, which originally was for sale, varied in frequency over the years as did its title (The Targum, Rutgers Targum, Rutgers Daily Targum, and Daily Targum). The newspaper has continuously been published since 1869 with the exception of 19 months during the second world war, between February 1944 and October 1945. The Targum was published by the students of Rutgers College, and later Rutgers University—New Brunswick represented through the years as the Targum Association, Rutgers Targum Association, and Rutgers College Targum. As a student organization, the Targum operated under the oversight of the dean of students and student government but in October 1980, the Targum became an independent college paper.

description: We use recently introduced three-point dynamic susceptibilities to obtain an experimental determination of the temperature evolution of the number of molecules, N_corr, that are dynamically correlated during the structural relaxation of supercooled liquids. We first discuss in detail the physical content of three-point functions that relate the sensitivity of the averaged two-time dynamics to external control parameters (such as temperature or density), as well as their connection to the more standard four-point dynamic susceptibility associated with dynamical heterogeneities. We then demonstrate that these functions can be experimentally determined with a good precision. We gather available data to obtain the temperature dependence of N_corr for a large number of supercooled liquids over a wide range of relaxation timescales from the glass transition up to the onset of slow dynamics. We find that N_corr systematically grows when approaching the glass transition. It does so in a modest manner close to the glass transition, which is consistent with an activation-based picture of the dynamics in glassforming materials. For higher temperatures, there appears to be a regime where N_corr behaves as a power-law of the relaxation time. Finally, we find that the dynamic response to density, while being smaller than the dynamic response to temperature, behaves similarly, in agreement with theoretical expectations.

description: The existence of complex stellar populations in some star clusters challenges the understanding of star formation. E.g. the ONC or the sigma Orionis cluster host much older stars than the main bulk of the young stars. Massive star clusters (omega Cen, G1, M54) show metallicity spreads corresponding to different stellar populations with large age gaps. We show that (i) during star cluster formation field stars can be captured and (ii) very massive globular clusters can accrete gas from a long-term embedding inter stellar medium and restart star formation.

Semiempirical formula for electroweak response functions in the two-nucleon emission channel in neutrino-nucleus scattering

description: A semi-empirical formula for the electroweak response functions in the two-nucleon emission channel is proposed. The method consists in expanding each one of the vector-vector, axial-axial and vector-axial responses as sums of six sub-responses. These corresponds to separating the meson-exchange currents as the sum of three currents of similar structure, and expanding the hadronic tensor, as the sum of the separate contributions from each current plus the interferences between them. For each sub-response we factorize the coupling constants, the electroweak form factors, the phase space and the delta propagator, for the delta forward current. The remaining spin-isospin contributions are encoded in coefficients for each value of the momentum transfer, $q$. The coefficients are fitted to the exact results in the relativistic mean field model of nuclear matter, for each value of $q$. The dependence on the energy transfer, $ω$ is well described by the semi-empirical formula. The $q$-dependency of the coefficients of the sub-responses can be parameterized or can be interpolated from the provided tables. The description of the five theoretical responses is quite good. The parameters of the formula, the Fermi momentum, number of particles relativistic effective mass, vector energy the electroweak form factors and the coupling constants, can be modified easily. This semi-empirical formula can be applied to the cross-section of neutrinos, antineutrinos and electrons.

description: In this letter, we exploit generalised unitarity in order to calculate the cut-constructible part of one-loop amplitudes in non-supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. In particular, we rederive the n-gluon MHV amplitudes for both the adjacent and non-adjacent gluon helicity configurations from 3- and 4-particle cuts alone.

description: Recent studies have reported that T cells can integrate signals between interrupted encounters with Antigen Presenting Cells (APCs) in such a way that the process of signal integration exhibits a form of memory. Here, we carry out a computational study using a simple mathematical model of T cell activation to investigate the ramifications of interrupted T cell-APC contacts on signal integration. We consider several mechanisms of how signal integration at these time scales may be achieved and conclude that feedback control of immediate early gene products (IEGs) appears to be a highly plausible mechanism that allows for effective signal integration and cytokine production from multiple exposures to APCs. Analysis of these computer simulations provides an experimental roadmap involving several testable predictions.

Combustion of natural gas and gasoline in a spark-ignition engine
Creators: name: Baets, Jozef Eduard
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This thesis presents the results of an investigation of the differences in combustion between gasoline and natural gas in a spark-ignition engine. Combustion development is influenced by calorific value, specific heat, flame speed and the gaseous or liquid state of the fuel. Simple simulation programs were set up to investigate the effects of low flame speed and higher specific heat of the fuel-air mixture. Actual performance was measured on a single cylinder test engine using ionization probes as flame detectors and a pressure pick-up. The experimental results show that longer ignition delay and limited flame speed at high pressure and temperature are the main reasons for' the power loss of natural gas at high engine speed; this is in addition to the basic loss due to the replacement of air by gaseous fuel in the cylinder. From calculations, it was learned that specific heat and dissociation differences had little effect on power.

description: Deriving optimal control strategies for coordination of connected and automated vehicles (CAVs) often requires re-evaluating the strategies in order to respond to unexpected changes in the presence of disturbances and uncertainties. In this paper, we first extend a decentralized framework that we developed earlier for coordination of CAVs at a signal-free intersection to incorporate replanning. Then, we further enhance the framework by introducing a priority-aware resequencing mechanism which designates the order of decision making of CAVs based on theory from the job-shop scheduling problem. Our enhanced framework relaxes the first-come-first-serve decision order which has been used extensively in these problems. We illustrate the effectiveness of our proposed approach through numerical simulations.

description: In this paper we implement an improved (error sensitive) Richardson-Lucy deconvolution algorithm on the measured angular power spectrum from the WMAP 3 year data to determine the primordial power spectrum assuming different points in the cosmological parameter space for a flat LCDM cosmological model. We also present the preliminary results of the cosmological parameter estimation by assuming a free form of the primordial spectrum, for a reasonably large volume of the parameter space. The recovered spectrum for a considerably large number of the points in the cosmological parameter space has a likelihood far better than a `best fit' power law spectrum up to Δχ^2_{eff} \approx -30. We use Discrete Wavelet Transform (DWT) for smoothing the raw recovered spectrum from the binned data. The results obtained here reconfirm and sharpen the conclusion drawn from our previous analysis of the WMAP 1st year data. A sharp cut off around the horizon scale and a bump after the horizon scale seem to be a common feature for all of these reconstructed primordial spectra. We have shown that although the WMAP 3 year data prefers a lower value of matter density for a power law form of the primordial spectrum, for a free form of the spectrum, we can get a very good likelihood to the data for higher values of matter density. We have also shown that even a flat CDM model, allowing a free form of the primordial spectrum, can give a very high likelihood fit to the data. Theoretical interpretation of the results is open to the cosmology community. However, this work provides strong evidence that the data retains discriminatory power in the cosmological parameter space even when there is full freedom in choosing the primordial spectrum.

description: An accurate description of interactions between thermal neutrons (below 4 eV) and materials is key to simulate the transport of neutrons in a wide range of applications such as criticality-safety, reactor physics, compact accelerator-driven neutron sources, radiological shielding or nuclear instrumentation, just to name a few. While the Monte Carlo transport code Geant4 was initially developed to simulate particle physics experiments, %-with a large emphasis given on modeled cross-sections for all known particles at all conceivable energies-, its use has spread to neutronics applications, requiring evaluated cross-sections for neutrons and gammas between $0$ and $20$ MeV (the so-called neutron High Precision -HP- package), as well as a proper offline or on-the-flight treatment of these cross-sections. In this paper we will point out limitations affecting Geant4 (version 10.07.p01) thermal neutron treatment and associated nuclear data libraries, by using comparisons with the reference Monte Carlo neutron transport code \tripoli, version 11, and we will present the results of various modifications of the Geant4 neutron-HP package, required to overcome these limitations. Also, in order to broaden the support of nuclear data libraries compatible with Geant4, a nuclear processing tool has been developed and validated allowing the use of the code together with ENDF-BVIII.0 and JEFF-3.3 libraries for example. These changes should be taken into account in an upcoming Geant4 release.

description: Neutrino telescopes can observe neutrino interactions starting at GeV energies by sampling a small fraction of the Cherenkov radiation produced by charged secondary particles. These experiments instrument volumes massive enough to collect substantial samples of neutrinos up to the TeV scale as well as small samples at the PeV scale. This unique ability of neutrino telescopes has been exploited to study the properties of neutrino interactions across energies that cannot be accessed with man-made beams. Here we present the methods and results obtained by IceCube, the most mature neutrino telescope in operation, and offer a glimpse of what the future holds in this field.

Biometric Masterkeys

description: Biometric authentication is used to secure digital or physical access. Such an authentication system uses a biometric database, where data are sometimes protected by cancelable transformations. This paper introduces the notion of biometric masterkeys. A masterkey is a feature vector such that the corresponding template matches with a significant number of templates stored in a cancelable biometric database. Such a masterkey is directly researched from a cancelable biometric database, but we also investigate another scenario in which the masterkey is fixed before the creation of the cancelable biometric database, providing additional access rights in the system for the masterkey's owner. Experimental results on the fingerprint database FVC and the face image database LFW show the effectiveness and the efficiency of such masterkeys in both scenarios. In particular, from any given feature vector, we are able to construct a cancelable database, for which the biometric template matches with all the templates of the database.
The role of sound in the British Columbia troll salmon fishery
Creators: name: Boyes, David Ross
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Sparked by anecdotal accounts of boat noise influencing the catch rates of commercial salmon trollers on the B.C. coast, acoustical studies of both boats and fish were undertaken. The study was in four parts: 1. Acoustical output of salmon trollers: Recordings were made of troll vessels and examined on a spectrum analyzer. Sonic output was predominantly of low frequency, under 300 Hz. Output levels at trolling speed (1-2 m/s) were about 20 dB re 1 μbar at 1 meter from the hull. Higher frequency spikes (1-2.5 kHz) were observed with operation of hydraulic pumps for auxiliary equipment. Broadband, transient output (approximately 1-6 kHz), was thought to be correlated with cavitation from propellors. 2. Fish sounds: Recordings were made of herring, salmon and rainbow trout swimming rapidly and feeding on pellets in net pen enclosures. These were examined on a spectrum analyzer. Two types of sounds were evident, "knocks" and "scratches". Knocks were correlated with rapid swimming and maneuvering and are likely of hydrodynamic origin. Scratches were thought to be produced by branchiate and skeletal movements and were relatively faint. Knocks were l-2 kHz, scratches 3.5-5.5 kHz. The dominant sounds in actively feeding, subsurface salmonids, were knocks. Recordings of feeding schools sounded remarkably like trickling water to the human ear. 3. Attracting salmon in net pens: Attempts were made to lure coho (Oncorhynchus kisutch) and chinook (Oncorhynchus tschawy tscha) as well as rainbov/ trout (Salmo gairdneri) to a speaker projecting recorded feeding sounds of the target fish. No responses of any kind were observed to output levels as high as 55 dB re 1 μbar at 1 meter. 4. Attracting salmon at sea: Recorded and simulated feeding and swimming sounds of salmonids were projected within the gear array of a commercial salmon troller fishing on the west coast of Vancouver Island, B.C. Catch rates were monitored with the test sounds on and off. Output level was 55 dB re 1 μbar at 1 meter. No significant change in catch rate was observed in response to the test sounds.

description: The dynamics of coupled 2D chaotic maps with time-delay on a scalefree-tree is studied, with different types of the collective behaviors already been reported for various values of coupling strength [1]. In this work we focus on the dynamics' time-evolution at the coupling strength of the stability threshold and examine the properties of the regularization process. The time-scales involved in the appearance of the regular state and the periodic state are determined. We find unexpected regularity in the the system's final steady state: all the period values turn out to be integer multiples of one among given numbers. Moreover, the period value distribution follows a power-law with a slope of -2.24.

description: We present a relational schema for the data and metadata contained in MODIS products represented as a collection of HDF files. Commonly used approach formalized in the NetCDF model is based on storing the data and metadata of one scene in a single file. However to develop tools that support research that requires the analysis of time series of remote sensing data new data models may be needed.
One promising approach is based on the indexing and addressing the data at the level of individual pixels.
The relational schema presented in this paper is intended towards the representation of the metadata present in NetCDF model during the transition towards indexing of individual pixels.

description: We consider the interaction between a relativistic fireball and material assumed to be still located just outside the progenitor star. Only a small fraction of the expected mass is sufficient to efficiently decelerate the fireball, leading to dissipation of most of its kinetic energy. Since the scattering optical depths are still large at distances comparable to the progenitor radius, the dissipated energy is trapped in the system, accelerating it to relativistic velocities. The process resembles the birth of another fireball at radii R~1e11 cm, not far from the transparency radius, and with a starting bulk Lorentz factors Gamma_c~10. As seen in the observer frame, this "re--generated" fireball appears collimated within an angle theta_j=1/Gamma_c. If the central engine works intermittently, the funnel can, at least partially, refill and the process can repeat itself. We discuss how this idea can help solving some open issues of the more conventional internal shock scenario for interpreting the Gamma-Ray Burst properties.
