Cherokee Verb Classes, Language Revitalization, and Second Language Pedagogy
Creators: name: Lavery, Kristen
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2019

description: The North American indigenous language Cherokee is an understudied and endangered language. Cherokee is the only living language left in the Southern branch of the Iroquoian language family. Languages of the Northern Iroquoian branch include Mohawk, Seneca, and Cayuga (Montgomery-Anderson 2015:3). Unfortunately, all three of these languages are also severely endangered (UNESCO). Due to generational gaps between fluent speakers of the language and children growing up in Cherokee communities, most children no longer speak Cherokee as a native language. Second language learners are important to the language revitalization efforts of Cherokee, but a lack of educational materials renders the teaching process difficult. One point of difficulty is the teaching of verbs. Research on Cherokee verbs by authors such as William Cook 1979 and Duane King 1975 has been limited to linguistic descriptions of verb structures that are difficult for second language learners to understand. My goal has been to categorize Cherokee verbs in a way that is easy for second language learners to understand and utilize. I used German strong verb classes as a model for what I wanted the Cherokee classes to look like and the information I wanted them to present. I analyzed a dataset of over 300 Cherokee verbs from which I identified patterns and separated the verbs into different classes based on those patterns. I present eleven verb classes for Cherokee, explain how they differ from the verb classes of Cook and King, and discuss how they could be used in the classroom. This research has the potential to impact students and teachers alike, by making Cherokee a more accessible language for everyone.
Coronal and Chromospheric Signatures of Large-Scale Disturbances Associated with a Major Solar Eruption

description: We present both coronal and chromospheric observations of large-scale disturbances associated with a major solar eruption on 2005 September 7. In GOES/SXI, arclike coronal brightenings are recorded propagating in the southern hemisphere. The SXI front shows an initially constant speed of 730 km s$^{-1}$ and decelerates later on, and its center is near the central position angle of the associated coronal mass ejection (CME) but away from flare site. Chromospheric signatures of the disturbances are observed in both MLSO/PICS H$α$ and MLSO/CHIP He I 10830 Å, and can be divided into two parts. The southern signatures occur in regions where the SXI front sweeps over, with the H$α$ bright front coincident with the SXI front while the He I dark front lagging the SXI front but showing a similar kinematics. Ahead of the path of the southern signatures, oscillations of a filament are observed. The northern signatures occur near the equator, with the H$α$ and He I fronts coincident with each other. They first propagate westward, and then deflect to the north at the boundary of an equatorial coronal hole (CH). Based on these observational facts, we suggest that the global disturbances are associated with the CME lift-off, and show a hybrid nature: a mainly non-wave CME flank nature for the SXI signatures and the corresponding southern chromospheric signatures, and a shocked fast-mode coronal magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) wave nature for the northern chromospheric signatures.

1. interpolation between measurements at sparse sets of incident directions,
2. extrapolation for directions that cannot be measured, and
3. application of a directional basis of given directional resolution. It is shown that data-driven models can provide a realistic representation of both DRCs. The sensitivity to effects from interpolation differ for the two DRCs due to the different complexity of their BSDFs. Due to the irregularity of the measured BSDFs, extrapolation is not reliable and fails for both tested DRCs. Different measurement and modeling protocols should be applied to different classes systems, rather than aiming at a common low-resolution discretization.

description: Prior research (Blackhart et al., 2014) found that rejection sensitive individuals are more likely to use online dating sites. The purpose of the current research was to explain the relationship between rejection sensitivity and online dating site usage. Study 1 examined whether true self mediated the relation between rejection sensitivity and online dating. Study 2 sought to replicate the findings of Study 1 and to examine whether self-disclosure moderated the relationship between true self and online dating in the mediation model. Results replicated those found by Blackhart et al. and also found that true self mediated the relationship between rejection sensitivity and online dating site usage. These findings suggest that rejection sensitive individuals feel they can more easily represent their “true” selves in online environments, such as online dating sites, which partially explains why they are more likely to engage in online dating.

description: In this paper, we make a generalization of Routh's reduction method for Lagrangian systems with symmetry to the case where not any regularity condition is imposed on the Lagrangian. First, we show how implicit Lagrange-Routh equations can be obtained from the Hamilton-Pontryagin principle, by making use of an anholonomic frame, and how these equations can be reduced. To do this, we keep the momentum constraint implicit throughout and we make use of a Routhian function defined on a certain submanifold of the Pontryagin bundle. Then, we show how the reduced implicit Lagrange-Routh equations can be described in the context of dynamical systems associated to Dirac structures, in which we fully utilize a symmetry reduction procedure for implicit Hamiltonian systems with symmetry.

description: We demonstrate single-qubit operations by transporting a beryllium ion with a controlled velocity through a stationary laser beam. We use these to perform coherent sequences of quantum operations, and to perform parallel quantum logic gates on two ions in different processing zones of a multiplexed ion trap chip using a single recycled laser beam. For the latter, we demonstrate individually addressed single-qubit gates by local control of the speed of each ion. The fidelities we observe are consistent with operations performed using standard methods involving static ions and pulsed laser fields. This work therefore provides a path to scalable ion trap quantum computing with reduced requirements on the optical control complexity.

Behavioral Effects of Optogenetic Activation of the Orbito-Accumbens Pathway in Adolescent Intermittent Ethanol-Exposed Rats
Creators: name: Watson, Madeline
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2019

description: The neurobiological effects of binge-like alcohol consumption during adolescence include reduced frontolimbic connectivity later in adulthood, which may result in decreased inhibitory control, impulsive behavior, and increased likelihood of alcoholism or alcohol abuse later in life. Animal behavior in Pavlovian Conditioned Approach (PCA) can be classified as sign-tracking (approach to the cue) or goal-tracking (approach to the reward delivery site). Sign-tracking behavior demonstrated during PCA shares many behavioral characteristics with vulnerability to drug or alcohol addiction and abuse and is, thus, an appropriate model to investigate the neurobiological effects of binge alcohol consumption in adolescents. In the present study, we modeled binge-like alcohol consumption in adolescent rats to determine how adolescent intermittent ethanol (AIE) exposure alters behavior in PCA. AIE-exposed rats exhibited decreased goal-tracking behavior compared to controls, indicating that adolescent alcohol consumption alters reward-associated behavior. We applied optogenetic techniques to determine the effects of stimulating orbitofrontal cortex (OFC) neurons projecting to the nucleus accumbens (NAcc) on conditioned approach behavior. Data showed that stimulation of the orbito-accumbens pathway does not reliably alter behavior in AIE-exposed rats. Thus, the orbito-accumbens pathway is likely not a desirable target to reverse the long-term effects of binge alcohol consumption during adolescence that are demonstrated by conditioned-approach behavior in PCA. However, further research is needed to thoroughly investigate the role of this pathway in addiction-like behavior in additional subjects.
Quantization of the superconducting energy gap in an intense microwave field

description: We study photon assisted tunneling in Nb/AlOx/Nb Josephson junctions. A quantitative calibration of the microwave field in the junction allowed direct verification of the quantum efficiency of microwave photon detection by the junctions. We observe that voltages of photon assisted tunneling steps vary both with the microwave power and the tunneling current. However, this variation is not monotonous, but staircase-like. The phenomenon is caused by mutual locking of positive and negative step series. A similar locking is observed with Shapiro steps. As a result the superconducting gap assumes quantized values equal to multiples of the quarter of the photon energy. The quantization is a manifestation of nonequilibrium tuning (suppression or enhancement) of superconductivity by the microwave field.

description: Existing data on the $e^+e^-\to K^+K^-$ cross section at the center-of-mass energy above 2.6 GeV are fitted with a sum of $ψ(3770)$ resonant and continuum contributions. Two solutions for the resonance production cross section are found with a significance of 3.2$σ$. Data on the $e^+e^-\to K_SK_L$ cross section are used to resolve the ambiguity and for further constraining the values of the $e^+e^-\to ψ(3770) \to K^+K^-$ cross section and the interference phase. They are found to be $σ_{ψ(3770)}=0.073^{+0.061}_{-0.044}$ pb and $ϕ=(309^{+17}_{-35})^\circ$, respectively. The same fitting procedure for the $ψ(4160)$ resonance leads to the upper limit on the $e^+e^-\to ψ(4160) \to K^+K^-$ cross section $σ_{ψ(4160)}<0.062$ pb at 90\% confidence level.

Identification and Removal of Low Energy Noise Events in the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR Through Wavelet Transforms
Creators: name: Smith, Drew
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2017

description: The MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR is an array of enriched, high-purity Germanium (HPGe)p-type point contact (PPC) detectors constructed to demonstrate the necessary background rates for the detection of neutrinoless double-beta decay and establish the feasibility of a tonne-scale experiment. The PPC detectors have excellent electronic noise performance, providing the opportunity to perform searches for various types of dark matter and other BSM physics that manifest at
low energy. In this study we identify some sources of noise events in low-energy (<200 keV) regions and discuss their removal. These methods are based on the offline calculation of parameters that are sensitive to a signal's risetime. In particular, the relationship between two of these parameters (w[par] and T/E) is considered in detail, and an attempt is made to place a cut on the data using this 2-dimensional distribution.

Search for solar axion signals via Bragg scattering with germanium detectors
Creators: name: Zitin, Ari
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2014

description: The lack of experimental evidence for CP violation in the strong nuclear force led to the development
of Peccei-Quinn theory which proposes a mechanism by which CP violation is suppressed
in the strong force. One consequence of Peccei-Quinn theory is the prediction of a new boson,
the axion, with an unknown mass and coupling constant. Although experiments have searched
for these axions, we have only been able to place limits on the mass and coupling constant. We
seek to perform a search for axions using the high purity germanium detectors in the Majorana
Demonstrator to look for axion-to-photon converted signals from the sun. To do this we use the
germanium crystal lattice to Bragg scatter the incident solar axion
ux, which by the Primakoff effect
is converted into a photon signal detectable by our germanium crystals. The work described in
this document serves to establish a procedure for determining the germanium crystal axes (needed
to find the Bragg condition), as well as to perform research and development on the hardware and
software tools necessary to perform the axion search.

Loughborough University has a strong history of engagement with responsible research assessment (RRA) and was one of the first universities in the UK to develop a Responsible Metrics Policy back in 2016. To an extent, therefore, many of the Commitments required by the ARRA are ‘business as usual’ for the institution. However, the University continuously strives to do better and to contribute nationally and internationally to this important agenda. Our CoARA Action Plan therefore embeds existing RRA practice at Loughborough and outlines further actions to ensure we continually remain abreast of best practice and play a significant role in the promotion of RRA globally.© Loughborough University

Is Geopolitical Risk Priced?

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: We empirically analyze the relationship between geopolitical risk and the U.S. stock market, with the goal of determining if this risk is priced. The geopolitical risk indexes created by Caldara and Iaoviello (2017) and the Fama and French (2015) 5-Factor asset pricing model form the basis of our study. We insert geopoliticalrisk as an additional factor in the 5-Factor model to determine if geopolitical risk maintains explanatory power when controlling for other proxies of risk. The 5-factors take away most explanatory power from geopolitical risk in explaining time-series returns. We highlight though the importance of separating the effect of the level of geopolitical risk from shocks to geopolitical risk. Then, a Fama-MacBeth (1973) two-pass regression is performed to determine if geopolitical risk is priced. We find that the level of geopolitical risk related to actions is significantly priced from 1988-2016.

description: We present a generalized hydrogen model for the binding energies ($E_B$) of excitons in two-dimensional (2D) materials that sheds light on the fundamental differences between excitons in two and three dimensions. In contrast to the well-known hydrogen model of three-dimensional (3D) excitons, the description of 2D excitons is complicated by the fact that the screening cannot be assumed to be local. We show that one can consistently define an effective 2D dielectric constant by averaging the screening over the extend of the exciton. For an ideal 2D semiconductor this leads to a simple expression for $E_B$ that only depends on the excitonic mass and the 2D polarizability $α$. The model is shown to produce accurate results for 51 transition metal dichalcogenides. Remarkably, over a wide range of polarizabilities the expression becomes independent of the mass and we obtain $E_B^{2D}\approx3/(4πα)$, which explains the recently observed linear scaling of exciton binding energies with band gap. It is also shown that the model accurately reproduces the non-hydrogenic Rydberg series in WS$_2$ and can account for screening from the environment.

description: Background: Health care outcomes used in service evaluation and research tend to measure morbidity and mortality. This is the case even in maternity care, where most women and babies are healthy. Salutogenesis theory recognises that health is a continuum, with explicit inclusion of wellbeing as well as illness and pathology. This offers the potential to reframe the outcomes and therefore, the focus of, maternity care research and provision. Aim: The aim of this study was to identify how salutogenesis has been defined and used in maternity care research undertaken with healthy women. Method: A scoping review was undertaken, using a formal pre-defined search strategy. Inclusion criteria encompassed research papers relating to the maternity episode up to one year after birth, using salutogenesis or any of its associated concepts, focused on healthy women, and written in a language which any of the members of the group could understand. The search was undertaken in two phases (Database inception-April 2011 and May 2011 -February 2013). Included studies were subject to narrative analysis. Findings: Eight papers met the inclusion criteria. They covered seven topics, spanning the antenatal, intrapartum and postnatal periods. Only two papers employed both positive health orientation and explicit use of Antonovsky's theory. The remaining studies used discrete aspects of the theory. Conclusion: Salutogenic framing is rarely used in maternity care research with healthy participants. An increase in research that measures salutogenically orientated outcomes could, eventually, provide a balance to the current over-emphasis on pathology in maternity care design and provision worldwide.

With a better understanding of the morphologies of these nanocrystals, the focus is turning to processing such as patterning and deposition. These techniques require a deeper understanding of the nature of the surface of the nanocrystals however, and the effects of tuning and modification must be explored.

description: We introduce an Expanded Parts Model (EPM) for recognizing human attributes (e.g. young, short hair, wearing suit) and actions (e.g. running, jumping) in still images. An EPM is a collection of part templates which are learnt discriminatively to explain specific scale-space regions in the images (in human centric coordinates). This is in contrast to current models which consist of a relatively few (i.e. a mixture of) 'average' templates. EPM uses only a subset of the parts to score an image and scores the image sparsely in space, i.e. it ignores redundant and random background in an image. To learn our model, we propose an algorithm which automatically mines parts and learns corresponding discriminative templates together with their respective locations from a large number of candidate parts. We validate our method on three recent challenging datasets of human attributes and actions. We obtain convincing qualitative and state-of-the-art quantitative results on the three datasets.

On superconformal Chern-Simons-matter theories in N=4 superspace

description: In three dimensions, every known N=4 supermultiplet has an off-shell completion. However, there is no off-shell N=4 formulation for the known extended superconformal Chern-Simons (CS) theories with eight and more supercharges. To achieve a better understanding of this issue, we provide N=4 superfield realisations for the equations of motion which correspond to various N=4 and N=6 superconformal CS theories, including the Gaiotto-Witten theory and the ABJM theory. These superfield realisations demonstrate that the superconformal CS theories with N>3 (except for the Gaiotto-Witten theory) require a reducible long N=4 vector multiplet, from which the standard left and right N=4 vector multiplets are obtained by constraining the field strength to be either self-dual or anti self-dual. Such a long multiplet naturally originates upon reduction of any off-shell N>4 vector multiplet to N=4 superspace. For the long N=4 vector multiplet we develop a prepotential formulation. It makes use of two prepotentials being subject to the constraint which defines the so-called hybrid projective multiplets introduced in the framework of N=4 supergravity-matter systems in arXiv:1101.4013. We also couple N=4 superconformal CS theories to N=4 conformal supergravity.

A New Kairos: Reclaiming Prophetic Theology in South Africa Two Decades Into Democracy
Creators: name: Wong, Brandon Peter
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: The original inspiration for this thesis stems from an encounter with Archbishop
Emeritus Desmond Tutu in December 2014. I was spending five months in South Africa
as part of the UNC Honors Cape Town program, and on one Friday morning, I attended
the Eucharist service at St. George’s Cathedral where Tutu was known to regularly speak.
The gathering was no more than several dozen congregants, roughly split between a core
group of regulars and visitors such as myself. After opening prayers and receiving the
Eucharist–or alternatively, receiving a blessing from Tutu–everyone walked around
greeting one another with the expression “peace be with you.” Tutu then asked all of the
visitors to introduce themselves, and ended with his own reflections on the challenges
facing the church in South Africa today.
His concluding remarks revolved around the South African Council of Churches
(SACC), the ecumenical organization of which Tutu was the General Secretary when he
received the Nobel Peace Prize in 1984. The SACC played a prominent role in the
struggle against apartheid; however, Tutu discussed how the SACC had not regained the
same stature and relevance within the modern-day political discourse in South Africa.
Tutu’s desire for Christian political activism today left me with a series of questions when
I returned back home to the United States: Why –and how– did the SACC and other
religious institutions play such a prominent role in the struggle against apartheid? Could
these same religious institutions reclaim the voice of moral conscience in post-apartheid,
South African society? If so, which new strategies in religious political activism could meet
the needs of the oppressed and marginalized in South Africa today?

description: We employ the Wigner function formalism to simulate partially coherent, dissipative electron transport in biased semiconductor superlattices. We introduce a model collision integral with terms that describe energy dissipation, momentum relaxation, and the decay of spatial coherences (localization). Based on a particle-based solution to the Wigner transport equation with the model collision integral, we simulate quantum electronic transport at 10 K in a GaAs/AlGaAs superlattice and accurately reproduce its current density vs field characteristics obtained in experiment.

National Association of Women Artists Inc. 125th Annual Exhibition
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2014

description: The National Association of Women Artists (NAWA) was established in 1889 and is the oldest professional women's fine arts organization in the United States. NAWA's mission is to promote awareness of, and interest in, visual art created by women in the United States. As part of this effort NAWA holds an annual exhibition of works by members of the association and publishes an exhibition catalog to accompany or commemorate the annual exhibitions. These catalogs not only function as an exhibition catalog, but also as a document that summarizes the structure, membership, and activities of the association.Information that can be found in these catalogs includes lists of officers, members of the executive board and committees, prize winners, lists of exhibitor and members, and images of some of the artwork exhibited. Catalogs from the 2000s also include information on NAWA events and activities beyond the annual exhibition.Please note that the numbering of the annual catalogs was adjusted in 1960 and again in 1971. For example, NAWA designated the annual exhibition in 1960 as the 70th Anniversary Exhibition after 1959 was the 67th Annual Exhibition. These adjustments appear to have been made to reflect the date of the founding of the association, so that, by 1989, the annual exhibition commemorated the 100-year anniversary of the founding of NAWA in 1889.
Majorana zero modes in the hopping-modulated one-dimensional $p$-wave superconducting model

description: We investigate the one-dimensional $p$-wave superconducting model with periodically modulated hopping and show that under time-reversal symmetry, the number of the Majorana zero modes (MZMs) strongly depends on the modulation period. If the modulation period is odd, there can be at most one MZM. However if the period is even, the number of the MZMs can be zero, one and two. In addition, the MZMs will disappear as the chemical potential varies. We derive the condition for the existence of the MZMs and show that the topological properties in this model are dramatically different from the one with periodically modulated potential.

Living on the edge? Periphery and perspective in Tobias Zielony’s urban landscapes
Creators: name: Gerke, Stefanie
Publisher: name: Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: 770 Fotografie, Fotografien, Computerkunst

description: Housing estates, satellite cities and other formerly idealistic social housing projects are subject to certain modes of representation that often affirm the notion of centre and periphery. The analysis of two series by German photographer Tobias Zielony shot on the outskirts of Marseille, France (Quartiers Nord, 2003) and Halle, Germany (Ha Neu, 2003) shows that these representations may be challenged. By adopting a particularly individual perspective, Zielony underlines photography’s ability to inspire change in our perception of what might be marginal.
Degree conditions restricted to induced paths for hamiltonicity of claw-heavy graphs

description: Broersma and Veldman proved that every 2-connected claw-free and $P_6$-free graph is hamiltonian. Chen et al. extended this result by proving every 2-connected claw-heavy and $P_6$-free graph is hamiltonian. On the other hand, Li et al. constructed a class of 2-connected graphs which are claw-heavy and $P_6$-\emph{o}-heavy but not hamiltonian. In this paper we further give some Ore-type degree conditions restricting to induced $P_6$'s of a 2-connected claw-heavy graph that can guarantee the graph to be hamiltonian. This improves some previous related results.

Controlling Chaos: An Analysis of Zbigniew Brzezinski's Political Theories and Foreign Policy, 1956-1981
Creators: name: Michael, Jan
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2015

description: Surprisingly, there is little work on Brzezinski. Only recently scholars have begun reevaluating his academic and political contributions. The works he published from 1956 to 1976 have not been consecutively analyzed in decades. With the fall of the Iron Curtain, it is time scholars reopen Brzezinski’s books and reexamine his ideas. The studies of Brzezinski’s term as National Security Adviser from 1977 to 1981 are also lacking. Many fail to look beyond the hyperbolic opinions of his fans and opponents during the administration. It is time to approach Brzezinski’s term in the White House and seriously analyze how his actions effected American foreign policy during the Cold War and what consequences our nation is still dealing with.
Service Dominant Logic in Practice: Applying Online Customer Communities and Personas for the Creation of Service Innovations

Personas

description: Many companies try to adopt a service-oriented perspective when developing new offerings by posing the question of how the creation of value jointly with customers can be improved. This requires a holistic view of customers beyond retrospective methods such as surveys. Observations of everyday life provide a valuable complement, because they initiate innovations not explicitly based on wishes formulated by customers, but on customer practices. Drawing on a case study of the Swiss Federal Railways (sfr), it is explored how 'value-in-context' and 'co-creation' can be put into practice. Online customer communities were used in the case study as they unveil value-in-context and practices of customers, which are important sources of innovation. The findings suggest that personas that were constructed based on the results from an online customer community consolidates user behaviour and contextual data and can help managers to improve their offerings in a service-oriented way.

A remark on $\mathbb{T}$-valued cohomology groups of algebraic group actions

description: We prove that for a weakly mixing algebraic action $σ: G\curvearrowright(X,ν)$, the $n$-cohomology group $H^n(G\curvearrowright X; \mathbb{T})$, after quotienting out the natural subgroup $H^n(G,\mathbb{T})$, contains $H^n(G,\widehat{X})$ as a natural subgroup for $n=1$. If we further assume the diagonal actions $σ^2, σ^4$ are $\mathbb{T}$-cocycle superrigid and $H^2(G, \widehat{X})$ is torsion free as an abelian group, then the above also holds true for $n=2$. Applying it for principal algebraic actions when $n=1$, we show that $H^2(G,\mathbb{Z}G)$ is torsion free as an abelian group when $G$ has property (T) as a direct corollary of Sorin Popa's cocycle superrigidity theorem; we also use it (when $n=2$) to answer, negatively, a question of Sorin Popa on the 2nd cohomology group of Bernoulli shift actions of property (T) groups.
