The catalytic decarbonylation of aldehydes using iron porphyrin complexes
Creators: name: Belani, Ramesh
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The aim of this project was to investigate the use of iron porphyrin complexes as potential homogeneous catalysts for the decarbonylation of aldehydes. Complexes of the type Fe(TPP)L₂ (where L = n-Bu₃P, PPh₃ or piperidine) were prepared and reacted with CO gas, or with aldehydes as sources of CO. Since the loss of coordinated CO from the Fe(TPP)(CO)(n-Bu₃P) complex was more facile, the bis(n-Bu₃P) phosphine system was studied in more detail. The X-ray structure of FeTPP(n-Bu₃P)₂ Is described, and this includes the first determination of an FeII-P bond distance for a metalloporphyrin. The study using Fe(TPP)L₂ complexes as decarbonylation catalysts was somewhat hindered by the extreme air-sensitivity of the porphyrin complexes in solution. UV/visible spectroscopy and gas chromatography were used to monitor the decarbonylation reactions. The reaction mixtures were analysed by GC/MS. The decarbonylation reactions were characterised by inconsistent turnover numbers and lack of reproducibility; during the decarbonylation of phenylacetaldehyde, bibenzyl was detected. Such factors are indicative of a free radical mechanism, similar to that proposed earlier for related Ru(II) porphyrin systems. The carbonylation of FeTPP(n-Bu₃P)₂ by CO gas was of interest with respect to the catalytic reaction, which must involve formation of a carbonyl complex. The reaction, FeTPP(n-Bu₃P)₂ + CO K [mathematical formula omitted] FeTPP(n-Bu₃P)(CO) + n-Bu₃P was found to have a K value of 0.72 at 29°C, while the temperature dependence of K was studied to obtain the thermodynamic parameters ΔS and ΔH for the equilibrium.

description: Spherical tokamaks (STs) have been shown to possess properties desirable for a fusion power plant such as achieving high plasma ? and having increased vertical stability. To understand the confinement properties that might be expected in the conceptual design for a high $β$ ST fusion reactor, a 1GW ST plasma equilibrium was analysed using local linear gyrokinetics to determine the type of micro-instabilities that arise. Kinetic ballooning modes (KBMs) and micro-tearing modes (MTMs) are found to be the dominant instabilities. The parametric dependence of these linear modes was determined and from the insights gained, the equilibrium was tuned to find a regime marginally stable to all micro-instabilities at $θ_0$ = 0:0. This work identifies the most important micro-instabilities expected to generate turbulent transport in high $β$ STs. The impact of such modes must be faithfully captured in first principles based reduced models of anomalous transport that are needed for predictive simulations.

Webinar Slides
Abstract: Large-scale neural interfacing is needed to provide better understanding of the brain at the cellular level and to develop more advanced prosthetic devices and brain-machine interfaces. However, interfacing with biological tissues poses many challenges such as biocompatibility, the size scale of cellular features, the stability and longevity of the materials in a moist environment at body temperature, and the tiny signal amplitudes to be captured. Therefore, the devices and circuits designed for these interfaces need fulfil a series of requirements to tackle these challenges. This talk will provide a general overview of existing techniques and requirements to perform neural recording, as well as an in-depth review of CMOS neural probes: technology requirements, materials, circuit techniques, design problems and possible solutions. A discussion on future trends and remaining challenges will also be included.

description: Accurate forecasting of solar power generation with fine temporal and spatial resolution is vital for the operation of the power grid. However, state-of-the-art approaches that combine machine learning with numerical weather predictions (NWP) have coarse resolution. In this paper, we take a graph signal processing perspective and model multi-site photovoltaic (PV) production time series as signals on a graph to capture their spatio-temporal dependencies and achieve higher spatial and temporal resolution forecasts. We present two novel graph neural network models for deterministic multi-site PV forecasting dubbed the graph-convolutional long short term memory (GCLSTM) and the graph-convolutional transformer (GCTrafo) models. These methods rely solely on production data and exploit the intuition that PV systems provide a dense network of virtual weather stations. The proposed methods were evaluated in two data sets for an entire year: 1) production data from 304 real PV systems, and 2) simulated production of 1000 PV systems, both distributed over Switzerland. The proposed models outperform state-of-the-art multi-site forecasting methods for prediction horizons of six hours ahead. Furthermore, the proposed models outperform state-of-the-art single-site methods with NWP as inputs on horizons up to four hours ahead.

description: We consider the Pfaffian-Grassmannian equivalence from the motivic point of view. The main result is that under certain numerical conditions, both sides of the equivalence are related on the level of Chow motives. The consequences include a verification of Orlov's conjecture for Borisov's Calabi-Yau threefolds, and verifications of Kimura's finite-dimensionality conjecture, Voevodsky's smash conjecture and the Hodge conjecture for certain linear sections of Grassmannians. We also obtain new examples of Fano varieties with infinite-dimensional Griffiths group.

Amadiba Agroforestry Plant Care Manual
Creators: name: Sardeshpande, Mallika
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: A Plant Care Manual designed for the project Developing capacity for Indigenous Community Agroforestry in the Amadiba area of Eastern Mpondoland. Output 2 of January 2025 for the SADC Great Green Wall Initiative funded by the GEF Small Grants Programme implemented by the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP). The project is a collaboration between the Institute of Natural Resources (INR),Sustaining the Wild Coast (SWC), and Siyasisiza Trust (ST) working together with residents of the Amadiba Coastal Villages in Eastern Mpondoland.

The Amadiba area in the Eastern Cape, South Africa is a biodiversity hotspot, and one of the few extant indigenous communities that practice traditional farming. The area faces threat from invasive alien encroachment, coastal erosion, land degradation and abandonment, and a drain on biocultural heritage due to youth out-migration. The project is engaging the residents of the six villages constituting the Amadiba area in selecting, planting, propagating, and utilizing locally appropriate indigenous tree species to enhance their livelihoods. The project has planted 2700 plants belonging to 32 species over an area of 125 hectares in the six communities, with the aim of promoting climate resilient agroforestry. The project will build capacity in members of the community including women and youth in agroforestry design, plantpropagation, sustainable use, and enterprise opportunities.

This set of manuals documents the procedures used to plant the species, care for them, and monitor their growth over a 6 month period. It also presents general principles for sustainable use of the species, and techniques for their propagation.

Year: 2007

description: The latest studies of massive star evolution indicate that an initially rapidly rotating star with sufficiently low metallicity can produce a rapidly rotating, massive stellar core that could be a progenitor of long-soft gamma-ray bursts (LGRBs). Motivated by these studies, we follow the collapse of a rapidly rotating massive stellar core to a 'collapsar' black hole (BH) surrounded by a massive, hot accretion disk performing fully general relativistic simulations. We focus on the general relativistic dynamics of the collapse, and the relevant microphysics is treated in a qualitative manner. The simulations are performed until the system consisting of the BH and the disk has relaxed to a quasi-stationary state. A novel mechanism found in this study is that strong shock waves are formed at the inner part of the disk after the formation of the BH. These shock waves propagate mainly along the rotation axis, heating the disk and sweeping materials around the rotational axis, and thereby forming a low density region. The temperature of the disk is high enough for copious neutrino emission. All these features indicate that the direct formation of a rapidly rotating BH is a promising source of LGRBs even in the absence of strong magnetic fields.

description: Thermal transport and quantum thermodynamics at the nanoscale is nowadays garnering an increasing attention, in particular in the context of quantum technologies. Experiments relevant for quantum technology are expected to be performed in the non-linear regime. In this work, we build on previous results derived in the linear response regime for the performance of an Aharonov-Bohm (AB) interferometer operated as heat engine. In the non-linear regime, we demonstrate the tunability, large efficiency and thermopower that this mesoscopic quantum machine can achieve, confirming the exciting perspectives that this AB ring offers for developing efficient thermal machines in the fully quantum regime.

description: We present an entirely microscopic calculation of the Casimir force $f(d)$ between two metallic plates in the limit of large separation $d$. The models of metals consist of mobile quantum charges in thermal equilibrium with the photon field at positive temperature $T$. Fluctuations of all degrees of freedom, matter and field, are treated according to the principles of quantum electrodynamics and statistical physics without recourse to approximations or intermediate assumptions. Our main result is the correctness of the asymptotic universal formula $ f(d) \sim -\frac{ζ(3) \kB T}{8πd^3}$, $d\to\infty$. This supports the fact that, in the framework of Lifshitz' theory of electromagnetic fluctuations, transverse electric modes do not contribute in this regime. Moreover the microscopic origin of universality is seen to rely on perfect screening sum rules that hold in great generality for conducting media.

description: The Higgs invisible decay width may soon become a powerful tool to probe extensions of the Standard Model with dark matter candidates at the Large Hadron Collider. In this work, we calculate the next-to-leading order (NLO) electroweak corrections to the 125 GeV Higgs decay width into two dark matter particles. The model is the next-to-minimal 2-Higgs-doublet model (N2HDM) in the dark doublet phase, that is, only one doublet and the singlet acquire vacuum expectation values. We show that the present measurement of the Higgs invisible branching ratio, BR$(H \to$ invisible $< 0.11$), does not lead to constraints on the parameter space of the model at leading order. This is due to the very precise measurements of the Higgs couplings but could change in the near future. Furthermore, if NLO corrections are required not to be unphysically large, no limits on the parameter space can be extracted from the NLO results.

Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: We examine how a scenario of coexisting two-particle dark mater can be realized in the extended seesaw model, which we have proposed previously to accommodate small neutrino masses and low scale leptogenesis with an introduction of singlet Majorana neutrino $S$ and singlet scalar $ϕ$. We now impose the discrete symmetry $Z_2 \times Z_2^{\prime}$ and introduce new renormalizable interaction terms with a new heavy singlet scalar particle $Φ$ so as for previously introduced $S$ and $ϕ$ to be doubly coexisting dark matter candidates. Depending on the mass spectrum of the two dark matter candidates, the annihilation process either $SS\longrightarrow ϕϕ$ or $ϕϕ\longrightarrow SS$ is of particular interest because the annihilation cross sections for the processes can be so large that the relic abundance of decaying particle should get lowered, which in turn makes the constraints on its parameter space relaxed, compared with the case of one and only one dark matter candidate. We discuss the implications of the dark matter detection through the scattering off the nucleus of the detecting material on our scenarios for dark matter candidates. We also study the implications for the search of invisible Higgs decay at LHC, which may serve as a probe of our scenario for dark matter.

Phonon-assisted decoherence in the production of polarization-entangled photons in a single semiconductor quantum dot

description: We theoretically investigate the production of polarization-entangled photons through the biexciton cascade decay in a single semiconductor quantum dot. In the intermediate state the entanglement is encoded in the polarizations of the first emitted photon and the exciton, where the exciton state can be effectively ``measured'' by the solid state environment through the formation of a lattice distortion. We show that the resulting loss of entanglement becomes drastically enhanced if the phonons contributing to the lattice distortion are subject to elastic scatterings at the device boundaries, which might constitute a serious limitation for quantum-dot based entangled-photon devices.

Realistic Haptic Rendering of Interacting Deformable Objects in Virtual Environments

description: A new computer haptics algorithm to be used in general interactive manipulations of deformable virtual objects is presented. In multimodal interactive simulations, haptic feedback computation often comes from contact forces. Subsequently, the fidelity of haptic rendering depends significantly on contact space modeling. Contact and friction laws between deformable models are often simplified in up to date methods. They do not allow a "realistic" rendering of the subtleties of contact space physical phenomena (such as slip and stick effects due to friction or mechanical coupling between contacts). In this paper, we use Signorini's contact law and Coulomb's friction law as a computer haptics basis. Real-time performance is made possible thanks to a linearization of the behavior in the contact space, formulated as the so-called Delassus operator, and iteratively solved by a Gauss-Seidel type algorithm. Dynamic deformation uses corotational global formulation to obtain the Delassus operator in which the mass and stiffness ratio are dissociated from the simulation time step. This last point is crucial to keep stable haptic feedback. This global approach has been packaged, implemented, and tested. Stable and realistic 6D haptic feedback is demonstrated through a clipping task experiment.
Nuclear magnetic resonance in inhomogeneous magnetic fields
Creators: name: Norwood, Timothy John
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The work described in this thesis was initiated in an attempt to overcome the limitations imposed upon NMR spectroscopy by magnetic field inhomogeneity in two specific areas: high resolution spectroscopy in isotropic liquids, and chemical shift resolved NMR imaging in isotropic liquids. In both cases magnetic field inhomogeneity may degrade the resolution of spectra to such an extent that no useful information can be obtained from them. In high resolution NMR spectroscopy it is necessary to be able to extract accurately the parameters present within the spectrum such as chemical shifts, coupling constants and peak areas. In chemical shift resolved imaging experiments the requirements are less stringent; and it is only necessary that the resonances of different chemical species be resolved. However, even the less stringent requirements of NMR imaging are often difficult to meet as the sample volumes required are often several orders of magnitude larger than those required in conventional high resolution NMR spectroscopy. The use of zero-quantum coherence has been investigated as a potential solution to the magnetic field inhomogeneity problem in both of these areas. Zero-quantum coherences are independent of magnetic field inhomogeneity and contain the parameters desired in both cases, though they are displayed in a way which differs from conventional NMR spectra. In this thesis, existing zero-quantum coherence experiments have been evaluated for use with inhomogeneous magnetic fields, and, where necessary, adapted for this purpose. Several completely new experiments have been developed for producing broad-band decoupled zero-quantum coherence spectra and also for presenting coupling constants and chemical shifts in a manner which is as close to conventional NMR spectra as possible, hence facilitating ease of use. Zero-quantum coherence has been evaluated as a tool for identifying unknown compounds and also for identifying the components of complex mixtures by "signature" recognition. Both decoupled and non-decoupled zero-quantum coherence experiments are adapted to provide imaging experiments which allow the separation of the images of different chemical species in inhomogeneous magnetic fields. The two-dimensional J-resolved experiment is also adapted for this purpose.

description: Bridge-mediated electron transfer (ET) between a donor and an acceptor is prototypical for the description of numerous most important ET scenarios. While multi-step ET and the interplay of sequential and direct superexchange transfer pathways in the donor-bridge-acceptor (D-B-A) model is increasingly understood, the influence off-diagonal system-bath interactions on the transfer dynamics is less explored. Off-diagonal interactions account for the dependence of the ET coupling elements on nuclear coordinates (non-Condon effects) and are typically neglected. Here we numerically investigate with quasi-adiabatic propagator path integral (QUAPI) simulations the impact of off-diagonal system-environment interactions on the transfer dynamics for a wide range of scenarios in the D-B-A model. We demonstrate that off-diagonal system-environment interactions can have profound impact on the bridge-mediated ET dynamics. In the considered scenarios the dynamics itself does not allow for a rigorous assignment of the underlying transfer mechanism. Further, we demonstrate how off-diagonal system-environment interaction mediates anomalous localization by preventing long-time depopulation of the bridge B and how coherent transfer dynamics between donor D and acceptor A can be facilitated. The arising non-exponential short-time dynamics and coherent oscillations are interpreted within an equivalent Hamiltonian representation of a primary reaction coordinate model that reveals how the complex vibronic interplay of vibrational and electronic degrees of freedom underlying the non-Condon effects can impose donor-to-acceptor coherence transfer on short timescales.

Slides for: Edge Computing: Use Cases and Benefits for Electrical Grids
At a time when the electricity system is becoming increasingly decentralised, with a growing share of intermittent renewable production spread over the territory, the collection of relevant data, its processing and its valorisation are becoming a key issue for grid operators. The development of IoT technology also opens up new perspectives for grid stakeholders.
Edge computing technologies can have many applications for smart grids. The exploitation of data as close as possible to their source of emission has indeed clear advantages to support the decentralisation of the operation of the electricity network.
The webinar will present the concept of edge computing, its applications for smart grids, illustrated by concrete use cases. The panelists will explain the benefits (performance and resilience, reduced cloud and telecommunication costs, new services, less private data uploaded, etc.), but also the challenges (cybersecurity, additional complexity, skills, industrial challenges, etc.).
=> While the energy transition implies a decentralisation of the operation of the electrical system, edge computing opens up new prospects for the development of smart grids.

Today�s power systems are suffering from ever-increasing computational burdens in sustaining the expanding communities and deep integration of renewables, as well as managing gigantic volumes of data accordingly. These unprecedented challenges call for transformative analytics to support the resilient operations of power systems. Recently, the swift growth of quantum computing techniques has ignited new hopes of revolutionizing power system computations. Quantum computing harnesses quantum mechanisms to solve traditionally intractable computational problems, which may lead to ultra-scalable and efficient power grid analytics. This talk will discuss the emerging quantum computing techniques in power systems. The speaker will give a comprehensive overview of existing quantum-engineered power analytics from operational perspectives, including static analysis, transient analysis, stochastic analysis, optimization, stability, and control. Relevant quantum algorithms, their benefits and limitations, hardware implementations, and recommended practices will be discussed. If time permits, we will also discuss quantum networking techniques for ensuring the cybersecurity of power systems in the quantum era.

description: (Abridged) We report on 8.7 and 7.6 yr of RXTE observations of the Anomalous X-ray Pulsars (AXPs) RXS J170849.0-400910 and 1E 1841-045, respectively. These observations, part of a larger RXTE AXP monitoring program, have allowed us to study the long-term timing, pulsed flux, and pulse profile evolution of these objects. We report on four new glitches, one from RXS J170849.0-400910 and three from 1E 1841-045. With nearly all known persistent AXPs now seen to glitch, such behavior is clearly generic to this source class. We show that in terms of fractional frequency change, AXPs are among the most actively glitching neutron stars. However, in terms of absolute glitch amplitude, AXP glitches are unremarkable. We show that the largest AXP glitches observed thus far have recoveries that are unusual among those of radio pulsar glitches, with the combination of recovery time scale and fraction yielding changes in spin-down rates following the glitch similar to, or larger than, the long-term average. We also observed a large long-term fractional increase in the magnitude of the spin-down rate of 1E 1841-045 following its largest glitch. These observations are challenging to interpret in standard glitch models, as is the frequent occurence of large glitches given AXPs' high measured temperatures. We speculate that the stellar core may be involved in the largest AXP glitches. Furthermore, we show that AXP glitches appear to fall in two classes: radiatively loud and radiatively quiet. The latter, of which the glitches of J170849.0-400910 and 1E 1841-045 are examples, show little evidence for an accompanying radiative event. We also show, however, that pulse profile and pulsed flux changes are common in these AXPs, but do not apprear closely correlated with any timing behavior.

description: This is part of the Online Appendix of the book Talking Collective Action. This appendix is intended for readers of the book interested in a more practical application of methodology; it provides an exemplary analysis that follows the method of sequential analysis described in the book. The appendix also attempts to anticipate some of the potential criticism of objective hermeneutics by conversation analysts and draws on arguments from ethnomethodology to do so.

description: A density-functional formalism for superconductivity {\em and} magnetism is presented. The resulting relations unify previously derived Kohn-Sham equations for superconductors and for non-collinear magnetism. The formalism, which discriminates Cooper pair singlets from triplets, is applied to two quantum liquids coupled by tunneling through a barrier. An exact expression is derived, relating the eigenstates and eigenvalues of the Kohn-Sham equations, unperturbed by tunneling, on one side of the barrier to the proximity-induced ordering potential on the other.

Estimating Ion Escape from Unmagnetized Planets

description: We propose a new method to estimate ion escape from unmagnetized planets that combines observations and models. Assuming that upstream solar wind conditions are known, a computer model of the interaction between the solar wind and the planet is executed for different ionospheric ion production rates. This results in different amounts of mass loading of the solar wind. Then we obtain the ion escape rate from the model run that best fit observations of the bow shock location. As an example of the method we estimate the heavy ion escape from Mars on 2015-03-01 to be $2\cdot 10^{24}$ ions per second, using a hybrid plasma model and observations by MAVEN and Mars Express. This method enables studies of how escape depend on different parameters, and also escape rates during extreme solar wind conditions, applicable to studies of escape in the early solar system, and at exoplanets.

description: Risk assessment is relevant in any workplace, however there is a degree of unpredictability when dealing with flammable or hazardous materials so that detection of fire accidents by itself may not be enough. An example of this is the impingement of jet fires, where the heat fluxes of the flame could reach nearby equipment and dramatically increase the probability of a domino effect with catastrophic results. Because of this, the characterization of such fire accidents is important from a risk management point of view. One such characterization would be the segmentation of different radiation zones within the flame, so this paper presents an exploratory research regarding several traditional computer vision and Deep Learning segmentation approaches to solve this specific problem. A data set of propane jet fires is used to train and evaluate the different approaches and given the difference in the distribution of the zones and background of the images, different loss functions, that seek to alleviate data imbalance, are also explored. Additionally, different metrics are correlated to a manual ranking performed by experts to make an evaluation that closely resembles the expert's criteria. The Hausdorff Distance and Adjusted Random Index were the metrics with the highest correlation and the best results were obtained from the UNet architecture with a Weighted Cross-Entropy Loss. These results can be used in future research to extract more geometric information from the segmentation masks or could even be implemented on other types of fire accidents.

description: We compute the inclusive cross-section of $f_{2}$ tensor mesons production in proton-proton collisions at high-energy. We use an effective theory inspired from the tensor meson dominance hypothesis that couples gluons to $f_{2}$ mesons. We compute the differential cross-section in the $k_{\perp}$-factorization and in the Color Glass Condensate formalism in the low density regime. We show that the two formalisms are equivalent for this specific observable. Finally, we study the phenomenology of $f_{2}$ mesons by comparing theoretical predictions of different parameterizations of the unintegrated gluon distribution function. We find that $f_{2}$-meson production is another observable that can be used to put constraints on these distributions.
