The globalized other: patterns of globalization and exclusion in Histoire de la femme cannibale by Maryse Condé and Le Ventre de l’Atlantique by Fatou Diome
Creators: name: Greenwood, Mary
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2009

description: The influence of globalization in contemporary society is widespread, generating spaces governed by international market forces rather than by local or national institutions and allowing the transmission of information and images to global audiences. Such phenomena seem to promote unprecedented deterritorialization and openness in that they obsolesce traditional boundaries. However, the economic forces shaping these new spaces and communications remain largely under the control of imperialist powers, allowing them to perpetuate practices of domination characteristic of colonialism. As Francophone authors, Maryse Condé and Fatou Diome often point out patterns of neo-colonialism, illustrating the extent to which global economies and media recreate colonial schemas of marginalization and exploitation. This thesis will explore intersections between globalization and neo-colonialism in Histoire de la femme cannibale (2003) by Maryse Condé and Le Ventre de l’Atlantique (2003) by Fatou Diome, and the narratological strategies they employ in the face of such marginalizing influences.
Moral realism and reliance on moral testimony
Creators: name: Blanchard, Joshua
Publisher: name: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Year: 2014

description: Several philosophers have recently argued that there is something inappropriate about relying on moral testimony and that this has potential implications for the nature of morality. Specifically, some have thought that the inappropriateness of relying on moral testimony poses a special problem for moral realism, on which there are good grounds for predicting that such reliance is actually appropriate. In this paper, I argue that moral realism only predicts that reliance on moral testimony is epistemically appropriate, but that, as a metaethical thesis, it is silent on whether such reliance is morally appropriate. I argue further that there are no good grounds for thinking that reliance on moral testimony is in fact epistemically inappropriate. After presenting what I think is the best explanation for the moral inappropriateness of reliance on moral testimony, I argue that, contra several recent philosophers, it is only sometimes inappropriate. There are some cases where reliance on moral testimony is not only appropriate but both epistemically and morally important.

Long-lived Neel states in antiferromagnetic quantum spin chains with strong uniaxial anisotropy for atomic-scale antiferromagnetic spintronics

Publisher: name: arXiv

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

description: It has been experimentally established that magnetic adatoms on surfaces can be arranged to form antiferromagnetic quantum spin chains with strong uniaxial anisotropy and Neel states in such spin systems can be used to realize information storage. Here, we investigate eigen states, quantum spin dynamics, and life times of Neel states in short antiferromagnetic quantum spin chains with strong uniaxial anisotropy on the basis of numerical exact diagonalization method. We show rigorously that as long as the uniaxial anisotropy is very strong, the ground state and the first excitation state, being nearly degenerate, are safely separated from the other states and thus dominate the quantum dynamics of the Neel states. Through further numerical analysis, we achieve a powerful life-time expression of the Neel states for arbitrary spin and model parameters. It is interesting that for the famous Fe adatom chains on Cu$_2$N surface, 14 or 16 Fe adatoms are enough to obtain a practical long life-time for Neel state storage of information. These should be applicable to other similar antiferromagnetic spin systems for atomic-scale antiferromagnetic spintronics.

description: The key to achieve high-quality van der Waals heterostructure devices made of stacking various two-dimensional (2D) layered materials lies in the clean interface without bubbles and wrinkles. Although polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) is generally used as a sacrificial transfer film due to its strong adhesion property, it is always dissolved in the solvent after the transfer, resulting in the unavoidable PMMA residue on the top surface. This makes it difficult to locate clean interface areas. In this work, we present a fully dry PMMA transfer of graphene onto h-BN using a heating/cooling system which allows identification of clean interface area for high quality graphene/h-BN heterostructure fabrication. The mechanism lies in the utilization of the large difference in thermal expansion coefficients between polymers (PMMA/PDMS) and inorganic materials (graphene/h-BN substrate) to mechanically peel off PMMA from graphene by the thermal shrinkage of polymers, leaving no PMMA residue on the graphene surface. This method can be applied to all types of 2D layered materials.

Pitch Deck - Exhibition 1
Creators: name: Pailthorpe, BA
Publisher: name: UNSWorks, UNSW
Year: 2017

description: Baden Pailthorpe’s new body of work, Pitch Deck (2017), explores the potential application of financial analysis and machine learning in contemporary art. Combining elements of high quality 3D animation, custom gaming PCs, liquid cooling, roman armour, web scrapers, champagne and startup chic, Pitch Deck is conceived as a pitch to potential investors in a business based on cultural capital. The central form of this body of work is a real company, Petricore Pty Ltd. Borrowing from key tenets of conceptual art, this company privileges concept over material form and challenges conventions of authorship and the status of the work of art. Pitch Deck, the exhibition's title work, serves as an expanded moving image pitch, whose artificially intelligent narrator outlines Petricore’s vision for an artworld inoculated against the unquantifiable risks of artworld participation. Accompanying this work are four new 3D animations; Padding, Helmet and Incubator (all 2017). These display items of speculative merchandise and tailored environments to accompany the central startup pitch. The first two feature forms of protective equipment designed for artists competing in Pailthorpe’s computationally driven combat league. The third, Incubator, imagines a speculative startup hatchery, lush in colour and rich in venture capital. All four works are authenticated using blockchain cryptography through Ascribe, a decentralised and unbreakable digital contract between artist and collector. In the algorithmically intense stages of late-capitalism, after the supposed death of the avant-garde, Pitch Deck asks us to consider whether today’s aesthetic and conceptual innovators have been absorbed by incubators rather than studios, funded by the interests of venture capitalists rather than patrons.

description: The design of compliant mechanisms is crucial in several technologies and relies on the availability of solutions for nonlinear structural problems. One of these solutions is given and experimentally validated in the present article for a compliant mechanism moving along a smooth curved profile. In particular, a deformable elastic rod is held by two clamps, one at each end. The first clamp is constrained to slide without friction along a curved profile, while the second clamp moves in a straight line transmitting its motion through the elastic rod to the first clamp. For this system it is shown that the clamp sliding on the profile imposes nontrivial boundary conditions (derived via a variational and an asymptotic approach), which strongly influence buckling and nonlinear structural behaviour. Investigation of this behaviour shows that a compliant mechanism can be designed, which gives an almost neutral response in compression. This behavior could easily be exploited to make a force limiting device. Finally a proof-of-concept device was constructed and tested showing that the analyzed mechanical system can be realized in practice and it behaves tightly to the model, so that it can now be used in the design of machines that use compliant mechanisms.

Maternal & nutritional influences on pediatric chronic disease
Creators: name: Wojcik, Katherine Y.
Publisher: name: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Year: 2011

description: Children are experiencing unprecedented levels of obesity, potentially complicating coexisting chronic conditions. Approximately 35% of American youth with type 1 diabetes (T1D) may also be overweight or obese. Although frequently associated with type 2 diabetes, excess weight is linked to heart disease and stroke, with negative implications for blood pressure that should not be ignored among T1D youth. Nearly 14% of these youth may already have ≥ 2 risk factors present for cardiovascular disease. Herein, a review of maternal influences on pediatric obesity revealed breastfeeding as slightly protective, while maternal overweight and smoking increased the risk. Breastfeeding may also protect against high blood pressure, a leading cause of stroke. Among a sample of T1D youth, no association between infant diet and hypertension was observed; important study limitations are noted. Such knowledge may inform future studies aimed at increasing efficacy of T1D self-management and quality of life.

description: Here we investigate light curves of the continuum and emission lines of five type 1 active galactic nuclei (AGN) from our monitoring campaign, to test time-evolution of their time delays.Using both modeled and observed AGN light curves we apply Gaussian-kernel based estimator to capture variation of local patterns of their time evolving delays. The largest variations of time delays of all objects occur in the period when continuum or emission lines luminosity is the highest. However, Gaussian kernel based method shows instability in the case of NGC 5548, 3C 390.3, E1821+643 and NGC 4051 possible due to numerical discrepancies between Damped Random Walk (DRW) time scale of light curves and sliding time windows of the method. The temporal variations of time lags of Arp 102B can correspond to the real nature of the time lag evolution.

Multiresolution Galerkin method for solving the functional distribution of anomalous diffusion described by time-space fractional diffusion equation

description: The functional distributions of particle trajectories have wide applications, including the occupation time in half-space, the first passage time, and the maximal displacement, etc. The models discussed in this paper are for characterizing the distribution of the functionals of the paths of anomalous diffusion described by time-space fractional diffusion equation. This paper focuses on providing effective computation methods for the models. Two kinds of time stepping schemes are proposed for the fractional substantial derivative. The multiresolution Galerkin method with wavelet B-spline is used for space approximation. Compared with the finite element or spectral polynomial bases, the wavelet B-spline bases have the advantage of keeping the Toeplitz structure of the stiffness matrix, and being easy to generate the matrix elements and to perform preconditioning. The unconditional stability and convergence of the provided schemes are theoretically proved and numerically verified. Finally, we also discuss the efficient implementations and some extensions of the schemes, such as the wavelet preconditioning and the non-uniform time discretization.

Do Intercollegiate Athletics Support the Academic Mission of a University? An Examination of the Relationship between Football Success and Graduation Rates at Division I-A Institutions
Creators: name: Schaff, Karen C.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2007

description: While intercollegiate athletics has maintained a very unique relationship with academic institutions, financial growth of college athletics within the past decade has led to staunch criticism regarding the academic integrity of the inclusion of a commercial enterprise within the higher education model. The purpose of this study was to analyze whether intercollegiate athletics support the academic mission of higher education. Specifically, this study extended previous empirical research and examined the relationship between football success over a period of time and overall graduation rates at Division I-A institutions (McCormick & Tinsley, 2002; Tucker, 1992; Tucker 2004). This study identified relevant academic and football success variables that were significantly related to graduation rates. Combining the academic and football success variables, the study determined a model of explanatory variables that best predicted graduation rates. The findings of a positive and significant relationship between football success and graduation rates supports the theory that athletics support an institution’s educational mission and encourage the assimilation of students to collegiate life.
The Formation of IRIS Diagnostics. VII. The Formation of the OI 135.56 nm Line in the Solar Atmosphere

description: The O I 135.56 nm line is covered by NASA's Interface Region Imaging Spectrograph (IRIS) small explorer mission which studies how the solar atmosphere is energized. We here study the formation and diagnostic potential of this line by means of non-LTE modelling employing both 1D semi-empirical and 3D radiation-Magneto Hydrodynamic (RMHD) models. We study the basic formation mechanisms and derive a quintessential model atom that incorporates the essential atomic physics for the formation of the O I 135.56 nm line. This atomic model has 16 levels and describes recombination cascades through highly excited levels by effective recombination rates. The ionization balance O I/O II is set by the hydrogen ionization balance through charge exchange reactions. The emission in the O I 135.56 nm line is dominated by a recombination cascade and the line is optically thin. The Doppler shift of the maximum emission correlates strongly with the vertical velocity in its line forming region, which is typically located at 1.0 - 1.5 Mm height. The total intensity of the line emission is correlated with the square of the electron density. Since the O I 135.56 nm line is optically thin, the width of the emission line is a very good diagnostic of non-thermal velocities. We conclude that the O I 135.56 nm line is an excellent probe of the middle chromosphere, and compliments other powerful chromospheric diagnostics of IRIS such as the Mg II h & k lines and the C II lines around 133.5 nm.

description: This study reports an unusual heterogeneity in [$^{12}$C$^{16}$O]/[$^{13}$C$^{16}$O] abundance ratios of carbon monoxide observed in the gas phase toward seven ~ solar-mass YSOs and three dense foreground clouds in the nearby star-forming regions, Ophiuchus, Corona Australis, Orion, Vela and an isolated core, L43. Robust isotope ratios were derived using infrared absorption spectroscopy of the 4.7 $μ$m fundamental and 2.3 $μ$m overtone rovibrational bands of CO at very high resolution ($λ$/$Δ$$λ\approx 95,000$), observed with the CRIRES spectrograph on the Very Large Telescope. We find [$^{12}$C$^{16}$O]/[$^{13}$C$^{16}$O] values ranging from ~ 85 to 165, significantly higher than those of the local interstellar medium (~ 65 to 69). These observations are evidence for isotopic heterogeneity in carbon reservoirs in solar-type YSO environments, and encourage the need for refined Galactic chemical evolution models to explain the $^{12}$C/$^{13}$C discrepancy between the solar system and local ISM. The oxygen isotope ratios are consistent with isotopologue-specific photodissociation by CO self-shielding toward the disks, VV CrA N and HL Tau, further substantiating models predicting CO self-shielding on disk surfaces. However, we find that CO self-shielding is an unlikely general explanation for the high [$^{12}$C$^{16}$O]/[$^{13}$C$^{16}$O] ratios observed in this study. Comparison of the solid CO against gas-phase [$^{12}$C$^{16}$O]/[$^{13}$C$^{16}$O] suggests that interactions between CO ice and gas reservoirs need to be further investigated as at least a partial explanation for the unusually high [$^{12}$C$^{16}$O]/[$^{13}$C$^{16}$O] observed.

Developmental Plasticity in Zebrafish (Danio Rerio): Effects of Early Life Exposure to a Stressor
Creators: name: Hare, Alexander

Year: 2017
Subjects: Comparative Physiology

description: Experience of stress and/or cortisol, the end-product of activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-interrenal (HPI) axis, may serve as a cue to trigger developmental plasticity. In fish, most research in this area has focused on effects of maternal stress or maternal cortisol levels on development, particularly with respect to the HPI axis and stress responses, and little attention has been paid to the effects of an endogenous stress response during early life. In the current study, zebrafish (Danio rerio) at four developmental stages (4, 7, 15 or 35 days post fertilization, dpf) were subjected to an air exposure stressor twice a day for two days. Individuals stressed early in life exhibited decreased survival and growth, increased whole-body Na+ and Ca2+ concentrations, and altered HPI axis activity associated with changes in anxiety-related behaviour at 7 to 35 dpf, with most effects diminishing with increasing age. Stress at 7 dpf was particularly effective at eliciting phenotypic changes, suggesting this age represents a critical window for cortisol to influence development. Finally, stress at 35 dpf induced masculinization, suggesting that cortisol influences sexual differentiation in zebrafish. These findings demonstrate that early-life stress in zebrafish triggers developmental plasticity, with effects on physiology and behaviour mediated by the HPI axis in an age-dependent manner.

This finding will pave a route to utilizing multiferroic skyrmions as information carriers for low-energy-consuming magnetic storage devices without Joule-heating energy losses.

description: High quality chromium (Cr) doped three-dimensional topological insulator (TI) Sb2Te3 films are grown via molecular beam epitaxy on heat-treated insulating SrTiO3(111) substrates. We report that the Dirac surface states are insensitive to Cr doping, and a perfect robust long-range ferromagnetic order is unveiled in epitaxial Sb2-xCrxTe3 films. The anomalous Hall effect is modulated by applying a bottom gate, contrary to the ferromagnetism in conventional diluted magnetic semiconductors (DMSs), here the coercivity field is not significantly changed with decreasing carrier density. Carrier-independent ferromagnetism heralds Sb2-xCrxTe3 films as the base candidate TI material to realize the quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) effect. These results also indicate the potential of controlling anomalous Hall voltage in future TI-based magneto-electronics and spintronics.

description: Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) has become a very important hyperpolarization method because it can dramatically increase the sensitivity of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) of various molecules. Liquid-state DNP based on Overhauser effect is capable of directly enhancing polarizations of all kinds of nuclei in the system. The combination of simultaneous Overhauser multi-nuclei enhancements with the multi-nuclei parallel acquisitions provides a variety of important applications in both MR spectroscopy (MRS) and image (MRI). Here we present two simple illustrative examples for simultaneously enhanced multi-nuclear spectra and images to demonstrate the principle and superiority. We have observed very large simultaneous DNP enhancements for different nuclei, such as 1H and 23Na, 1H and 31P, 19F and 31P, especially for the first time to report sodium ion enhancement in liquid. We have also obtained the simultaneous imaging of 19H and 31P at low field by solution-state DNP for the first time. This method can obtain considerably complementary structure-determination information of miscellaneous biomolecules from a single measurement. It can also be used in combination with the fast acquisition schemes and quantitative analysis with reduced scan time.

Under the Cover of Darkness: Terror and horror in Voltaire’s Zaïre
Creators: name: Combs, Wendy
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries

description: Voltaire’s Zaïre is a curiosity in French theatrical history as a compromise between direct portrayal of violence and the neoclassical tradition of recounting violent acts, resulting in a unique death scene. Voltaire often criticized the delicacy of the French public and claimed that horrific, violent acts can be instrumental in effectively inspiring pity, terror, and even sympathy in the audience, though his tragedies are distinctly lacking in violent acts on stage. Rather than fear of the public’s response or a lack of conviction in his principles, it was strategy that motivated Voltaire to write a death scene for Zaïre which hides the violence through the use of darkness in the theater. The dark stage allows for a more moving death and evokes all of the emotions deemed necessary by Voltaire and contemporary critics, even managing to portray horror without the need for outright, visible violence.

description: Strong lensing provides popular techniques to investigate the mass distribution of intermediate redshift galaxies, testing galaxy evolution and formation scenarios. It especially probes the background cosmic expansion, hence constraining cosmological parameters. The measurement of Einstein radii and central velocity dispersions indeed allows to trace the ratio D_s/D_ls between the distance D_s from the observer to the source and the distance D_ls from the lens to the source. We present an improved method to explicitly include the two - component structure in the galaxy lens modeling, in order to analyze the role played by the redshift and the model dependence on a nuisance parameter, F_E, which is usually marginalized in the cosmological applications. We show how to deal with these problems and carry on a Fisher matrix analysis to infer the accuracy on cosmological parameters achieved by this method.

description: Absolute binding energies of core electrons in molecules and bulk materials can be efficiently calculated by spin paired density-function theory employing a $Δ$ Kohn-Sham ($Δ$KS) scheme corrected by offsets that are highly transferable. These offsets depend on core level and atomic species and can be determined by comparing $Δ$KS energies to experimental molecular X-ray photoelectron spectra. We demonstrate the correct prediction of absolute and relative binding energies on a wide range of molecules, metals and insulators.

Pseudorapidity dependence of short-range correlations from a multi-phase transport model

description: Using a multi-phase transport model (AMPT) that includes both initial partonic and hadronic interactions, we study neighboring bin multiplicity correlations as a function of pseudorapidity in Au+Au collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 7.7-62.4$ GeV. It is observed that for $\sqrt{s_{NN}} < $19.6GeV Au+Au collisions, the short-range correlations of final particles have a trough at central pseudorapidity, while for $\sqrt{s_{NN}} > $19.6GeV AuAu collisions, the short-range correlations of final particles have a peak at central pseudorapidity. Our findings indicate that the pseudorapidity dependence of short-range correlations should contain some new physical information, and are not a simple result of the pseudorapidity distribution of final particles. The AMPT results with and without hadronic scattering are compared. It is found that hadron scattering can only increase the short-range correlations to some level, but is not responsible for the different correlation shapes for different energies. Further study shows that the different pseudorapidity dependence of short-range correlations are mainly due to partonic evolution and the following hadronization scheme.
