description: We present Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations of 85.69 and 99.02 GHz continuum emission and H42$α$ and H40$α$ lines emission from the central 1~kpc of NGC 1808. These forms of emission are tracers of photoionizing stars but unaffected by dust obscuration that we use to test the applicability of other commonly star formation metrics. An analysis of the spectral energy distributions shows that free-free emission contributes about 60 to 90 per cent of the continuum emission in the 85-100 GHz frequency range, dependent on the region. The star formation rate (SFR) derived from the ALMA free-free emission is $3.1\pm0.3$~M$_\odot$~yr$^{-1}$. This is comparable to the SFRs measured from the infrared emission, mainly because most of the bolometric energy from the heavily obscured region is emitted as infrared emission. The radio 1.5~GHz emission yields a SFR 25 per cent lower than the ALMA value, probably because of the diffusion of the electrons producing the synchrotron emission beyond the star-forming regions. The SFRs measured from the extinction-corrected H$α$ line emission are about 40 to 65 per cent of the SFR derived from the ALMA data, likely because this metric was not calibrated for high extinction regions. Some SFRs based on extinction-corrected ultraviolet emission are similar to those from ALMA and infrared data, but given that the ultraviolet terms in the extinction correction equations are very small, these metrics seem inappropriate to apply to this dusty starburst.

description: Low-energy quasiparticle (QP) excitations in the heavy-fermion superconductor URu$_2$Si$_2$ were investigated by specific-heat $C(T, H, ϕ, θ)$ measurements of a high-quality single crystal. The occurrence of QP excitations due to the Doppler-shift effect was detected regardless of the field direction in $C(H)$ of the present clean sample, which is in sharp contrast to a previous report. Furthermore, the polar-angle-dependent $C(θ)$ measured under a rotating magnetic field within the ac plane exhibits a shoulder-like anomaly at $θ\sim 45$ deg and a sharp dip at $θ= 90$ deg ($H \parallel a$) in the moderate-field region. These features are supported by theoretical analyses based on microscopic calculations assuming the gap symmetry of $k_z(k_x+ik_y)$, whose gap structure is characterized by a combination of a horizontal line node at the equator and point nodes at the poles. The present results have settled the previous controversy over the gap structure of URu$_2$Si$_2$ and have authenticated its chiral $d$-wave superconductivity.

description: We provide a detailed user guide for SMARTIES, a suite of Matlab codes for the calculation of the optical properties of oblate and prolate spheroidal particles, with comparable capabilities and ease-of-use as Mie theory for spheres. SMARTIES is a Matlab implementation of an improved T-matrix algorithm for the theoretical modelling of electromagnetic scattering by particles of spheroidal shape. The theory behind the improvements in numerical accuracy and convergence is briefly summarised, with reference to the original publications. Instructions of use, and a detailed description of the code structure, its range of applicability, as well as guidelines for further developments by advanced users are discussed in separate sections of this user guide. The code may be useful to researchers seeking a fast, accurate and reliable tool to simulate the near-field and far-field optical properties of elongated particles, but will also appeal to other developers of light-scattering software seeking a reliable benchmark for non-spherical particles with a challenging aspect ratio and/or refractive index contrast.

Schools, Neighborhoods, and Universal Breakfast Programs: Examining the Relationship between Universal Breakfast Programs and End-of-Grade Test Pass Rates in North Carolina Public Schools
Creators: name: Boundy, Emma
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2014

description: The significance of eating breakfast and the potential relationship to improved cognitive abilities and
enhanced learning among students has become a topic of increased discussion in recent years. This
issue has gained importance as student performance has become increasingly tied to standardized
test results, which may influence funding, rankings, and the perception of the school’s success.
Within this larger discussion, research regarding the correlation between the implementation of a
universal breakfast program provided daily by the school system to all students, regardless of
household income, and student academic performance has been limited, particularly in the state of
North Carolina.
This paper presents an initial overview of the effects of the Universal Breakfast Program at the
school level between the 2010-11 and 2011-12 school years. School breakfast programs were created
to meet the needs of hungry children and thereby hopefully improve their overall health and
academic performance. In recent years, universal breakfast programs have become increasingly
popular in an attempt to reduce some of the social stigmas associated with eating free or reduced
priced meals. This report provides an evaluation at the school level—not the individual level—of the
impacts of the first year in the universal breakfast pilot program in selected elementary and middle
schools in North Carolina on academic achievement. While every school in this study participates in
the federal School Breakfast Program, only 32 schools participated in a Universal Breakfast Program
during the 2011-12 school year.

description: We revisit the universal behavior of crystalline membranes at and below the crumpling transition, which pertains to the mechanical properties of important soft and hard matter materials, such as the cytoskeleton of red blood cells or graphene. Specifically, we perform large-scale Monte Carlo simulations of a triangulated two-dimensional phantom network which is freely fluctuating in three-dimensional space. We obtain a continuous crumpling transition characterized by critical exponents which we estimate accurately through the use of finite-size techniques. By controlling the scaling corrections, we additionally compute with high accuracy the asymptotic value of the Poisson ratio in the flat phase, thus characterizing the auxetic properties of this class of systems. We obtain agreement with the value which is universally expected for polymerized membranes with a fixed connectivity.

description: Many aspects of human cognition are influenced by the time of day at which a cognitive task is completed. However, it remains unclear whether impulsivity is one such aspect of cognition also subject to diurnal changes. Furthermore, we do not know whether individual differences in sleep patterns impact on diurnal expression of impulsivity, nor how chronotype (being a ‘morning’ or ‘evening’ person) might drive impulsivity at different times of day. We will investigate 1) whether there are diurnal fluctuations in impulsivity; 2) whether sleep patterns interact with these effects; and 3) how chronotype affects impulsivity in the morning versus evening. We will also analyse the effect that sleep duration has on next-day levels of impulsivity, and explore relationships between sleep patterns, motor and trait impulsivity, wellbeing and time spent at work. We will run a repeated measures design, with healthy university students, who report no mental health condition, ADHD, or sleep problems, and no psychoactive medications. Participants will complete a stop signal task at five timepoints (9am, 12noon, 3pm, 6pm and 9pm), with session order counterbalanced to mitigate practice effects; a sleep diary for 7 days; and questionnaires measuring individual differences. Statistics will be performed in R and in JASP, using BFs and p values.

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

description: In composite Higgs models (CHMs), electroweak precision data generically push colourless composite vector resonances to a regime where they dominantly decay into pairs of light top partners. This greatly attenuates their traces in canonical collider searches, tailored for narrow resonances promptly decaying into Standard Model final states. By reinterpreting the CMS same-sign dilepton (SS2$\ell$) analysis at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), originally designed to search for top partners with electric charge $5/3$, we demonstrate its significant coverage over this kinematical regime. We also show the reach of the 13 TeV run of the LHC, with various integrated luminosity options, for a possible upgrade of the SS2$\ell$ search. The top sector of CHMs is found to be more fine-tuned in the presence of colourless composite resonances in the few TeV range.

An Analysis of the 2013 Raleigh Unified Development Ordinance
Creators: name: Band, Daniel C.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2014

description: Over the last decade, many large cities across the United States have gone through the process of
re-writing their zoning and subdivision codes to better fit modern development practices. Major
cities that are currently undergoing or have recently completed this process include Los Angeles,
Washington D.C., Memphis, and Denver.
Locally, North Carolina’s capital city of Raleigh completed a zoning and development code
update last year. Like many other cities, Raleigh chose to bundle their updated codes into one
document, termed a unified development ordinance (UDO). In brief, a unified development
ordinance is a comprehensive document that contains all of a municipality’s land use and
development regulations; it is structured to enhance public understanding of the development
process, ease bureaucratic challenges, and reduce overall redundancies.
As a case study of that process, this paper seeks to document and learn lessons from the Raleigh
UDO’s creation, adoption and initial implementation efforts. It is divided into three general
sections. The first part documents historical changes in Raleigh which led to the UDO’s creation
and gives contextual relevance to its various elements. The second part of this paper uses source
documents, articles written about the UDO, and interviews with key stakeholders in order to
chronicle the code-creation process. This is particularly useful because stakeholders were
interviewed almost one-year removed from the ordinance adoption and thus have some of the
benefits of hindsight. Finally, the third section will provide an in-depth overview of the new
codes and stakeholder views of the changes contained in them. Discussion following that will
focus on lessons learned and potential obstacles for the City regarding future implementation.
In terms of goals for this paper, it is hoped that it will serve as an important historical record of
the code-creation process and provide insight into stakeholder reactions to it. In addition, in a
tangible sense the lessons learned from this process can inform the work of other cities who find
themselves in a similar position of re-writing their codes. The lessons may be particularly useful
for cities using the same consultants as Raleigh since those consultants are fairly prolific in
assisting cities nationwide in code re-writing overhauls.

Managing risk through community engagement: a case comparison of community engagement processes in Chapel Hill, NC
Creators: name: Pearce, Kate
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2010

description: Real estate development is a constant game of balancing risk and reward. Developers are continually seeking innovative ways to mitigate risk, reduce uncertainty and, improve returns. Especially during times of economic hardship where markets are tight, capital scarce, and opportunity limited, the developer must make prudent decisions. While the complete elimination of risk is impossible, greater knowledge about a specific project results in less exposure to expensive risk. To aid in this decision making process, developers have at their disposal a cache of tools including sensitivity analyses, environmental impact studies, forecasting models, expertise from lawyers, accountants, and the like. One additional risk management tool is the community engagement process. The community engagement process is simply another form of market analysis that all development projects should incorporate into their development budgets and timelines. The process can help development teams identify potential roadblocks, assist in compliance with regulatory requirements, inform strategic planning decisions and ultimately provide better end-results. In addition, the community engagement process can encourage disparate groups to listen to one another, discuss alternatives and help them reach a common solution (Zykofsky, 2008). It can empower individuals, help create coalitions in support of development and ultimately assist in securing the political will necessary to move a project forward. The following case study offers a critique and comparison of the community engagement process employed during the conceptual planning phases of the redevelopment of two sites in Chapel Hill, North Carolina. The two sites at 123 West Franklin Street and the Glen Lennox neighborhood vary in type and scale of existing use but are similar in that both are highly valued. The degree to which the development teams are able to reduce project risk through community engagement is assessed through an in-depth analysis of multiple factors including the historical condition, existing site constraints, type and number of stakeholders, development process mechanics and the frequency and nature of the public meetings.

subject: prequestions
subject: self-efficacy

description: Pretests are a useful tool that inform instructors of what students do and do not know; allowing instructors to measure learning during class as well as make subsequent changes to upcoming instruction. A question of interest in cognitive psychology is whether answering questions on a pre-test can improve later learning. Prior research conducted in the laboratory has shown that answering pre-questions improves later learning of that same information (Bull & Dizney, 1973; Hartley,1973; Richland, Kornell, & Kao, 2009, Little and Bjork, 2011) and, in some cases, facilitates new learning (Carpenter & Toftness, 2017, Little & Bjork 2016 ). Two hypotheses have been proposed for the benefit of prequestions: (1) that they highlight key information to be learned and (2) they function as a metacognitive check; informing students on what they do not know and, indirectly, should expend more effort in learning. Although the benefits of prequestions on learning that same information from a later learning resource has been firmly established in the laboratory, few studies have examined this effect in a classroom context. The few studies which have investigated it have found mixed effects (Carpenter, Rahman, & Perkins, 2018; Geller, Carpenter, Lamm, Rahman, Armstrong, & Coffman, 2017; McDaniel, Agarwal, Huelser, McDermott, & Roediger, 2011). Given these results, it is not clear how well the prequestion effect generalizes to classroom contexts. Additionally, very little work, in or out of the laboratory, has investigated the role of metacognition or self-efficacy beliefs in relation to the intervention. Therefore, the aim of the current work is to investigate the effect of prequestions on learning in a large lecture-based setting and test some of the potential relations between prequestions, metacognition, self-efficacy, and performance.
General form of entropy on the horizon of the universe in entropic cosmology

description: Entropic cosmology assumes several forms of entropy on the horizon of the universe, where the entropy can be considered to behave as if it were related to the exchange (the transfer) of energy. To discuss this exchangeability, the consistency of the two continuity equations obtained from two different methods is examined, focusing on a homogeneous, isotropic, spatially flat, and matter-dominated universe. The first continuity equation is derived from the first law of thermodynamics, whereas the second equation is from the Friedmann and acceleration equations. To study the influence of forms of entropy on the consistency, a phenomenological entropic-force model is examined, using a general form of entropy proportional to the $n$-th power of the Hubble horizon. In this formulation, the Bekenstein entropy (an area entropy), the Tsallis--Cirto black-hole entropy (a volume entropy), and a quartic entropy are represented by $n=2$, $3$, and $4$, respectively. The two continuity equations for the present model are found to be consistent with each other, especially when $n=2$, i.e., the Bekenstein entropy. The exchange of energy between the bulk (the universe) and the boundary (the horizon of the universe) should be a viable scenario consistent with the holographic principle.

Does transit-oriented development affect metro ridership? An exploration of association between built environment and travel behavior in Shenzhen, China
Creators: name: Peng, Ke
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2011

description: This paper would examine how the built environment factors influence metro ridership. Cross-section analyses of 19 metro stations in Shenzhen for 2010 are performed by using regression models and t-tests. For urban planners and transportation experts in Shenzhen, this question is important because of at least three reasons as follow. Firstly, digging out the potential of metro and make it cost-effective have been strong appeals from the government. As one of the vice mayor of Shenzhen said, "We should make public investment as efficient as possible and make metro attract more people and ease the burden of road system". Secondly, rapid increasing amount of zoning and rezoning work around metro area in the past three years call for a set of operational land use index in order to better guide the future land use development around metro stations (Zhang, 2009). Additionally, many Chinese planning experts and policy makers are skeptical towards applying certain TOD principle like high density on Shenzhen since this city have been ranked as one of the most compact cities in the world. Since Western countries and other Asian cities have been researching on this topic for a period of time, this study thus analyzes whether the influence of TOD planning factors identified from foreign case studies is also applied to Shenzhen. Since TOD planning elements involves density, mixed land-use, and urban designs, in this paper, we tried to identify what factors are more significantly effective in promoting transit ridership. This study first analyzes characteristics of planning factors identified from preliminary studies. Then we pick up built environment factors available and representing the urban form of Shenzhen. After that, multiple regression analysis models are developed to analyze that relationship between derived planning factors and metro ridership at different time periods. This process verifies the strong associations between some of the TOD planning factors and metro ridership.

description: We perform an empirical consistency test of General Relativity/dark energy by disentangling expansion history and growth of structure constraints. We replace each late-universe parameter that describes the behavior of dark energy with two meta-parameters: one describing geometrical information in cosmological probes, and the other controlling the growth of structure. If the underlying model (a standard wCDM cosmology with General Relativity) is correct, that is under the null hypothesis, the two meta-parameters coincide. If they do not, it could indicate a failure of the model or systematics in the data. We present a global analysis using state-of-the-art cosmological data sets which points in the direction that cosmic structures prefer a weaker growth than that inferred by background probes. This result could signify inconsistencies of the model, the necessity of extensions to it or the presence of systematic errors in the data. We examine all these possibilities. The fact that the result is mostly driven by a specific sub-set of galaxy clusters abundance data, points to the need of a better understanding of this probe.

description: In diesem Artikel der Zeitschrift Gruppe. Interaktion. Organisation. werden auf Basis von Daten aus einer Interviewstudie die Perspektiven von Landesinstituten für Schulen (LiS) auf die Schnittstelle zur Schulleitung im Rahmen digitalisierungsbezogener Schulentwicklung analysiert. Die LiS verantworten in diesem Kontext bedeutsame Professionalisierungsmaßnahmen für Schulleitungen. In der Analyseperspektive der Educational Governance werden die LiS bzgl. der Schnittstelle in einen doppelten Fokus genommen: Zum einen stellt sich die Herausforderung einer gelingenden Passung von Qualifizierungsmaßnahmen an der Schnittstelle von LiS und Schulleitung (sowohl inhaltlich als auch organisatorisch), sodass schulische Führungskräfte in ihrer digitalisierungsbezogenen Kompetenzentwicklung effektiv unterstützt werden können. Zum anderen kann diese Schnittstelle mit Fokus auf die Steuerung und Implementation gelingender digitalisierungsbezogener Schulentwicklung innerhalb des Bildungssystems analysiert werden. Das Ziel der Studie liegt darin, Relevanzsetzungen (im Sinne von Handlungslogiken) der LiS in der Gestaltung der Professionalisierungsangebote zu identifizieren und auf die Herstellung von Passung an der Schnittstelle (im Sinne gelingender Handlungskoordination) zu diskutieren. Es zeigt sich, dass die Handlungslogik der LiS u. a. von Steuerungsimpulsen des übergeordneten Ministeriums, aber maßgeblich auch von normativen Erwartungen sowie Anpassungsstrategien an die (wahrgenommenen) Handlungslogiken der Schulleitungen beeinflusst ist. Für die Steuerung und Handlungskoordination kommt insofern nicht nur (unilateral) den LiS, sondern (wechselseitig) auch der Schulleitung eine zentrale Bedeutung für die Gestaltung und potenzielle Wirkung der digitalisierungsbezogenen Professionalisierungsangebote zu. Hieran anschließende Probleme, Herausforderungen und Implikationen für die Forschung und (Steuerung der) Praxis werden diskutiert.

description: Topological insulators (TIs) constitute a new class of materials with an energy gap in the bulk and peculiar metallic states on the surface. To date, most experiments have focused on probing the surface electronic structure of these materials. Here, we report on new and potentially interesting features resulting from the bulk electronic structure. Our findings are based on a comprehensive nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) study of $^{77}$Se on Bi$_2$Se$_3$ and Cu$_{0.15}$Bi$_2$Se$_3$ single crystals. First, we find two resonance lines and show that they originate from the two inequivalent Se lattice sites. Second, we observe unusual field-independent linewidths, and attribute them to an unexpectedly strong internuclear coupling mediated by bulk electrons. These results call for a revision of earlier NMR studies and add insight into the bulk electronic properties of TIs.

description: We present an ongoing development of an existing code for calculating ground-state, steady-state, and transient properties of many-particle systems. The development involves the addition of the full four-index two electron integrals, which allows for the calculation of transport systems, as well as the extension to multi-level electronic systems, such as atomic and molecular systems and other applications. The necessary derivations are shown, along with some preliminary results and a summary of future plans for the code.

Clinical evidence on the use of Chinese herbal medicine for acute infectious diseases: an overview of systematic reviews

description: Public health emergencies (PHEs) are extraordinary events that are determined to constitute public health risks to other states through the international spread of disease and that potentially require a coordinated international response. Acute infectious diseases are among the most common PHEs. In China, Chinese herbal medicine (CHM) has a long history of treating acute infections such as smallpox, plague, scarlet fever, cholera, typhoid fever, and malaria. Given the occurrence and epidemics of infectious diseases across different periods, valuable experience has been accumulated in the use of CHM to fight against infectious diseases, which was often documented in classical literature and monographs. In modern China, CHM continues to be applied to a wide range of emergent infectious diseases, such as severe acute respiratory syndromes (SARS), H1N1 influenza, and Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19). And there are many clinical trials and systematic reviews of CHM that have been published. However, there has been no comprehensive study describing the current status of the treatment of acute infectious diseases with CHM in the manner of critical appraisal. Therefore, we conducted this study to provide an overview of systematic reviews (SRs) of the treatment of infectious diseases with CHM that could serve as a reference for decision-making in this field.
Who Uses this Facility and Why? Developing Survey Tools to Implement the Trail Modeling and Assessment Protocol

description: Policymakers and transportation planners utilize quantitative methods for developing and prioritizing transportation investments. While travel forecasting and evaluation tools have been employed in the highway planning process for decades, these instruments have only recently begun to be developed for non-motorized transportation investments. As a result, road projects are typically described as needs, while projects addressing conditions for bicyclists and pedestrians are often considered “amenities” (RTC 2014, T-MAP Fact sheet). Individual agencies have developed programs to measure trail use along local greenway corridors, but there currently are no national methods for demand and impact estimation on trails and greenways. To address this gap, the Rails-to-Trails Conservancy has undertaken a $1.2 million, three-year project called Trail Modeling and Assessment Platform (T-MAP) to create “trail planning data collection instruments, methodologies, and analysis tools” (RTC 2014, T-MAP Fact sheet).
As part of T-MAP, the Rails-to-Trails Conservancy will lead the first nationwide survey of trail use. This paper contributes to the development of the T-MAP survey tools and methods, which will provide the empirical data necessary for calculating the health and transportation impacts of trail investments. Without this data, the impact analyses would rely on crude assumptions. The survey data allows Rails-to-Trails to learn more about trail use and usage, which will allow the organization to make a better case for trails. The T-MAP survey implementation will include two components: an intercept survey and an online survey. This project focuses on the development and refinement of the trail user survey and survey distribution protocol, which will outline strategies for effective survey administration, including survey timing, location, incentives, and surveyor training.
