description: The discoveries of the radio source Centaurus A and its optical counterpart NGC 5128 were important landmarks in the history of Australian astronomy. NGC 5128 was first observed in August 1826 by James Dunlop during a survey of southern objects at the Parramatta Observatory, west of the settlement at Sydney Cove. The observatory had been founded a few years earlier by Thomas Brisbane, the new governor of the British colony of New South Wales. Just over 120 years later, John Bolton, Gordon Stanley and Bruce Slee discovered the radio source Centaurus A at the Dover Heights field station in Sydney, operated by CSIRO's Radiophysics Laboratory (the forerunner of the Australia Telescope National Facility). This paper will describe this early historical work and summarise further studies of Centaurus A by other Radiophysics groups up to 1960.

description: This work investigates the spatial relation between coronal X-ray sources and coherent radio emissions, both generally thought to be signatures of particle acceleration. Two limb events were selected during which the radio emission was well correlated in time with hard X-rays. The radio emissions were of the type of decimetric pulsations as determined from the spectrogram observed by Phoenix-2 of ETH Zurich. The radio positions were measured from observations with the Nancay Radioheliograph between 236 and 432 MHz and compared to the position of the coronal X-ray source imaged with RHESSI. The radio pulsations originated at least 30 - 240 Mm above the coronal hard X-ray source. The altitude of the radio emission increases generally with lower frequency. The average positions at different frequencies are on a line pointing approximately to the coronal hard X-ray source. Thus, the pulsations cannot be caused by electrons trapped in the flare loops, but are consistent with emission from a current sheet above the coronal source.

Security problem on arbitrated quantum signature schemes

description: Until now, there have been developed many arbitrated quantum signature schemes implemented with a help of a trusted third party. In order to guarantee the unconditional security, most of them take advantage of the optimal quantum one-time encryption method based on Pauli operators. However, we in this paper point out that the previous schemes only provides a security against total break and actually show that there exists a simple existential forgery attack to validly modify the transmitted pair of message and signature. In addition, we also provide a simple method to recover the security against the proposed attack.

description: Large-conductance Ca2+-activated K+ (BK) channels are composed of a pore-forming α and a variable number of auxiliary β subunits and play important roles in regulating excitability, action potential waveforms and firing patterns, particularly in neurons and endocrine and cardiovascular cells. The β2 subunits increase the diversity of gating and pharmacological properties. Its extracellular loop contains eight cysteine residues, which can pair to form a high-order structure, underlying the stability of the extracellular loop of β2 subunits and the functional effects on BK channels. However, how these cysteines form disulfide bonds still remains unclear. To address this, based on the fact that the rectification and association of BK α to β2 subunits are highly sensitive to disruption of the disulfide bonds in the extracellular loop of β2, we developed a rectification ratio based assay by combining the site-directed mutagenesis, electrophysiology and enzymatic cleavage. Three disulfide bonds: C1(C84)-C5(C113), C3(C101)-C7(C148) and C6(C142)-C8C(174) are successfully deduced in β2 subunit in complex with a BK α subunit, which are helpful to predict structural model of β2 subunits through computational simulation and to understand the interface between the extracellular domain of the β subunits and the pore-forming α subunit.

description: All hard, convex shapes are conjectured by Ulam to pack more densely than spheres, which have a maximum packing fraction of ϕ = π/\sqrt18 ~ 0.7405. For many shapes, simple lattice packings easily surpass this packing fraction. For regular tetrahedra, this conjecture was shown to be true only very recently; an ordered arrangement was obtained via geometric construction with ϕ = 0.7786, which was subsequently compressed numerically to ϕ = 0.7820. Here we show that tetrahedra pack much better than this, and in a completely unexpected way. Following a conceptually different approach, using thermodynamic computer simulations that allow the system to evolve naturally towards high-density states, we observe that a fluid of hard tetrahedra undergoes a first-order phase transition to a dodecagonal quasicrystal, which can be compressed to a packing fraction of ϕ = 0.8324. By compressing a crystalline approximant of the quasicrystal, the highest packing fraction we obtain is ϕ = 0.8503. If quasicrystal formation is suppressed, the system remains disordered, jams, and compresses to ϕ = 0.7858. Jamming and crystallization are both preceded by an entropy-driven transition from a simple fluid of independent tetrahedra to a complex fluid characterized by tetrahedra arranged in densely packed local motifs that form a percolating network at the transition. The quasicrystal that we report represents the first example of a quasicrystal formed from hard or non-spherical particles. Our results demonstrate that particle shape and entropy can produce highly complex, ordered structures.

description: We consider the full driven quantum dynamics of a qubit realized as spin of electron in a one-dimensional double quantum dot with spin-orbit coupling. The driving perturbation is taken in the form of a single half-period pulse of electric field. Spin-orbit coupling leads to a nontrivial evolution in the spin and charge densities making the dynamics in both quantities irregular. As a result, the charge density distribution becomes strongly spin-dependent. The transition from the field-induced tunneling to the strong coupling regime is clearly seen in the charge and spin channels. These results can be important for the understanding of the techniques for the spin manipulation in nanostructures.

Refit to numerically problematic UMIST reaction rate coefficients

description: Aims. Chemical databases such as the UMIST Database for Astrochemistry (UDFA) are indispensable in the numerical modeling of astrochemical networks. Several of the listed reactions in the UDFA have properties that are problematic in numerical computations: Some are parametrized in a way that leads to extremely divergent behavior for low kinetic temperatures. Other reactions possess multiple entries that are each valid in a different temperature regime, but have no smooth transition when switching from one to another. Numerically, this introduces many difficulties.We present corrected parametrizations for these sets of reactions in the UDFA06 database. Methods. From the tabulated parametrization in UDFA, we created artificial data points and used a Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm to find a set of improved fit parameters without divergent behavior for low temperatures. For reactions with multiple entries in the database that each possess a different temperature regime, we present one joint parametrization that is designed to be valid over the whole cumulative temperature range of all individual reactions. Results. We show that it is possible to parametrize numerically problematic reactions from UDFA in a form that avoids low temperature divergence. Additionally, we demonstrate that it is possible to give a collective parametrization for reaction rate coefficients of reactions with multiple entries in UDFA. We present these new fitted values in tabulated form.

Essays in Macroeconomics
Creators: name: Caines, Colin
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: This thesis is composed of three chapters. The first chapter argues that boom-bust behavior in asset prices can be explained by a model in which boundedly-rational agents learn the process for prices. The key feature of the model is that learning operates in both the demand for assets and the supply of credit. Interactions between agents on either side of the market create complementarities in their respective beliefs, providing an additional source of propagation. In contrast, the chapter shows why learning involving only one side on the market, the focus of most of the literature, cannot plausibly explain persistent and large price booms. Quantitatively, the model explains recent experiences in US housing markets. The full appreciation in US house prices in the 2000s can be generated from observed mortgage rate changes. The model also generates endogenous liberalizations in household lending conditions during price booms and replicates key volatilities of housing market variables at business cycle frequencies. The second chapter presents a learning model in which households are endowed with recursive preferences. The chapter evaluates how the introduction of bounded rationality in beliefs effects the level of long run consumption risk in the economy. The chapter shows that structural learning frameworks currently found in the literature lead to a perception of low persistence in exogenous shocks, regardless of the underlying stochastic processes in the economy. Generating long run risk requires a preference for late resolution of uncertainty. The third chapter provides an explanation for two features of the world saving distribution: (i) saving rates are significantly different across countries and they remain different for long periods of time; and (ii) some countries and regions have shown very sharp changes in their average saving rates over short periods of time. It formalizes a model of the world economy comprised of open economies inhabited by heterogeneous agents endowed with recursive preferences. The model can generate the time series behavior of saving observed in the data from measured productivity shocks. The model can also generate the sudden and long-lived increase in East Asian savings by incorporating shocks to societal aspiration.

description: This paper studies optimal bandwidth and power allocation in a cognitive radio network where multiple secondary users (SUs) share the licensed spectrum of a primary user (PU) under fading channels using the frequency division multiple access scheme. The sum ergodic capacity of all the SUs is taken as the performance metric of the network. Besides all combinations of the peak/average transmit power constraints at the SUs and the peak/average interference power constraint imposed by the PU, total bandwidth constraint of the licensed spectrum is also taken into account. Optimal bandwidth allocation is derived in closed-form for any given power allocation. The structures of optimal power allocations are also derived under all possible combinations of the aforementioned power constraints. These structures indicate the possible numbers of users that transmit at nonzero power but below their corresponding peak powers, and show that other users do not transmit or transmit at their corresponding peak power. Based on these structures, efficient algorithms are developed for finding the optimal power allocations.

description: The world continues to advance at a hastening pace towards a technology enabled, digital-centric future. Legacy organizations, not born in the ‘digital age’ are examining methods to adapt through Digital Transformation (DT). The US Department of Defense (DoD) is one such organization. The DoD emerged their 2018 Digital Engineering Strategy intending on transforming the enterprise from one with ‘engineering process [that] are document-intensive and stove-piped, leading to extended cycle times with systems that are cumbersome to change and sustain’ to one that is ‘transforming its engineering practices to digital engineering, incorporating technological innovations into an integrated, digital, model-based approach’. The 2018 Strategy acknowledges that the integration of digital engineering will not be exclusive to the engineering communities of the DoD; rather, the integration will impact the ‘research, requirements, acquisition, test, cost, sustainment and intelligence communities’. While the Strategy is designed to explain the ‘what’ necessary to integrate digital engineering, the various DoD Services (and their subordinates) will need to develop the ‘how’ regarding implementation that is culturally appropriate to their commands. The study sought to examine ‘how’ implementation of digital engineering tenets may be appropriated to the existent culture of one US Special Operations Command subordinate at the Echelon III level (namely Naval Special Warfare Group – FOUR). The results of this study are intended to provide understanding and illuminate meaning behind those themes in Digital Engineering that Subject Matter Experts within Naval Special Warfare view as suitably adaptable to their processes. The intent is to provide themes with utility towards further efforts and research aimed at phasing Digital Transformation initiatives at Naval Special Warfare Group – FOUR.

description: 4.Simodactylus species. A specimen of this genus, lacking head and thorax, was found by R. L. Usinger June 27, 1936 on Mt. Alifan; its reddish brown elytra measure 12 mm. in length. It is very different from the Polynesian S. cinnamomeus (Boisduval). The Mt. Alifan insect appears similar to S. hesperius Van Zwaluwenburg from Palau and the Carolines, and to S. palauensis Van Zwaluwenburg from Palau; like them, it bears a resemblance to some of the Philippine species of the genus. Its occurrence in the mountain forest suggests that it is native to Guam.

description: We consider the critical spin-spin correlation function of the 2D Ising model with a line defect which strength is an arbitrary function of position. By using path-integral techniques in the continuum description of this model in terms of fermion fields, we obtain an analytical expression for the correlator as functional of the position dependent coupling. Thus, our result provides one of the few analytical examples that allows to illustrate the transit of a magnetic system from scaling to non-scaling behavior in a critical regime. We also show that the non-scaling behavior obtained for the spin correlator along a non-uniformly altered line of an Ising model remains unchanged in the Ashkin-Teller model.

description: A search for double $β$ decay of dysprosium was realized for the first time with the help of an ultra low-background HP Ge $γ$ detector. After 2512 h of data taking with a 322 g sample of dysprosium oxide limits on double beta processes in $^{156}$Dy and $^{158}$Dy have been established on the level of $T_{1/2}\geq 10^{14}-10^{16}$ yr. Possible resonant double electron captures in $^{156}$Dy and $^{158}$Dy were restricted on a similar level. As a by-product of the experiment we have measured the radioactive contamination of the Dy$_2$O$_3$ sample and set limits on the $α$ decay of dysprosium isotopes to the excited levels of daughter nuclei as $T_{1/2}\geq 10^{15} - 10^{17}$ yr.

For this purpose, we introduce a sequence matrix H_N with the aim of calculating the pseudo random sequences of N bits employing the algorithm related to the automaton backward evolution. In addition, a multifractal structure of the matrix H_N is revealed and quantified according to the multifractal formalism. The latter analysis could help to disentangle what kind of automaton rule is used in the randomization process and therefore it could be useful in cryptanalysis. Moreover, the conditions are found under which this pseudo random generator passes all the statistical tests provided by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST)

Discovery of soft and hard X-ray time lags in extremely low-mass AGN
Creators: name: Mallick, Labani
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021

description: The scaling relations between the black hole (BH) mass and soft lag properties for both AGN and BH X-ray binaries (BHXRBs) indicate the same underlying physical mechanism at work in accreting BH systems spanning a broad range of mass. However, the low-mass end of AGN has never been explored. In this work, we extend the existing scaling relations to lower-mass AGN, which serve as anchors between the normal-mass AGN and BHXRBs. For this purpose, we construct a sample of extremely low-mass AGN from the XMM-Newton archive and measure frequency-resolved time delays between the soft and hard X-ray emission. We report that the soft band lags behind the hard band emission at high frequencies, which is interpreted as a sign of reverberation from the inner accretion disc in response to the direct coronal emission. At low frequencies, the hard band lags behind the soft band variations, which we explain in the context of the inward propagation of luminosity fluctuations through the corona. We find that the X-ray source for the sample extends at an average radius of around 6 gravitational radii and a median height of around 10 gravitational radii above the disc plane, consistent with gravitational microlensing observations. Our results confirm that the scaling relations between the BH mass and soft lag amplitude/frequency derived for higher-mass AGN can safely extrapolate to lower-mass AGN, and the accretion process is indeed independent of the BH mass.
The Rahman polynomials and the Lie algebra sl_3(C)

description: We interpret the Rahman polynomials in terms of the Lie algebra $sl_3(C)$. Using the parameters of the polynomials we define two Cartan subalgebras for $sl_3(C)$, denoted $H$ and $\tilde{H}$. We display an antiautomorphism $\dagger$ of $sl_3(C)$ that fixes each element of $H$ and each element of $\tilde{H}$. We consider a certain finite-dimensional irreducible $sl_3(C)$-module $V$ consisting of homogeneous polynomials in three variables. We display a nondegenerate symmetric bilinear form $$ on $V$ such that $ = < ξ,β^\dagger ζ>$ for all $β\in sl_3(C)$ and $ξ,ζ\in V$. We display two bases for $V$; one diagonalizes $H$ and the other diagonalizes $\tilde{H}$. Both bases are orthogonal with respect to $$. We show that when $$ is applied to a vector in each basis, the result is a trivial factor times a Rahman polynomial evaluated at an appropriate argument. Thus for both transition matrices between the bases each entry is described by a Rahman polynomial. From these results we recover the previously known orthogonality relation for the Rahman polynomials. We also obtain two seven-term recurrence relations satisfied by the Rahman polynomials, along with the corresponding relations satisfied by the dual polynomials. These recurrence relations show that the Rahman polynomials are bispectral. In our theory the roles of $H$ and $\tilde{H}$ are interchangable, and for us this explains the duality and bispectrality of the Rahman polynomials. We view the action of $H$ and $\tilde{H}$ on $V$ as a rank 2 generalization of a Leonard pair.

description: Presentation for csv,conf,v7. We present the strategies we have implemented to demonstrate to users and funders the public value of the Agrobiodiversity Information System (SIAgroBD) developed by the National Commission for the Knowledge and Use of Biodiversity (CONABIO). CONABIO, a governmental agency, coordinates biodiversity data collection and analysis in support of the sustainable management of natural resources in Mexico. SIAgroBD is part of the Mexican Agrobiodiversity GEF project, with FAO as the implementing agency, and its objective is to generate and systematize open data related to native crops of global importance. We will share the challenges we have faced in advocating for the development and maintenance of SIAgroBD. In particular, we highlight the need to build a common ground with users and funders with respect to what an information system is and what it is designed to do. We develop this common ground through capacity building activities, establishing feedback processes, and designing narratives tailored to different stakeholders. These strategies have helped us better communicate the value of SIAgroBD, and we hope they are useful to other open data infrastructure projects.

description: For a certain parametrized family of maps on the circle, with critical points and logarithmic singularities where derivatives blow up to infinity, a positive measure set of parameters was constructed in [19], corresponding to maps which exhibit nonuniformly hyperbolic behavior. For these parameters, we prove the existence of absolutely continuous invariant measures with good statistical properties, such as exponential decay of correlations. Combining our construction with the logarithmic nature of the singularities, we obtain a positive variance in Central Limit Theorem, for any nonconstant Hölder continuous observable.

Essays on strategic uncertainty with non-subjective expected utility agents
Creators: name: Calford, Evan M.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: This thesis contains three distinct chapters that contribute to our understanding of how people respond, both theoretically and in controlled experimental environments, to uncertainty that results from the strategic decisions of others. The standard framework for studying strategic interactions involves agents with Subjective Expected Utility preferences (Savage, 1954) interacting in an environment where, in equilibrium, all strategies are known to all agents. This thesis studies the effects of relaxing preferences to allow for ambiguity aversion, regret minimization, and approximate optimization. The first chapter experimentally investigates the role of uncertainty aversion in normal form games. Theoretically, risk aversion will affect the utility value assigned to realized outcomes while ambiguity aversion affects the evaluation of strategies. In practice, however, utilities over outcomes are unobservable and the effects of risk and ambiguity are confounded. This chapter introduces a novel methodology for identifying the effects of risk and ambiguity preferences on behaviour in games in a laboratory environment. Furthermore, we also separate the effects of a subject's beliefs over her opponent's preferences from the effects of her own preferences. The second chapter studies, experimentally, a simple dynamic entry game in both continuous and discrete time. We introduce new laboratory methods that allow us to eliminate natural inertia in subjects' decisions in continuous time experiments. Using our novel continuous time setting and the standard discrete time setting as benchmarks, we study the effects of inertia (caused by naturally occurring reaction lags) on behaviour. We demonstrate that the observed patterns of behaviour are consistent with standard models of decision making under uncertainty, and that the degree of inertia affects subject responses to strategic uncertainty. The third chapter examines, theoretically, the role of mixed strategies for agents with ambiguity averse preferences. This chapter demonstrates how a well known result from cooperative game theory, that a non-additive measure over a set of states can be equivalently represented by an additive measure over the set of events, can be used to introduce mixed strategies (in an equilibrium preserving fashion) to existing pure strategy equilibrium concepts.

description: Music is universally prevalent in human society and is a salient component of the lives of young families. Here, we studied the frequency of singing and playing recorded music in the home using surveys of parents with infants (N = 945). We found that most parents sing to their infant on a daily basis and the frequency of infant-directed singing is unrelated to parents’ income or ethnicity. Two reliable individual differences emerged, however: (i) fathers sing less than mothers and (ii) as infants grow older, parents sing less. Moreover, the latter effect of child age was specific to singing and was not reflected in reports of the frequency of playing recorded music. Last, we meta-analysed reports of the frequency of infant-directed singing and found little change in its frequency over the last 30 years, despite substantial changes in the technological environment in the home. These findings, consistent with theories of the psychological functions of music, in general, and infant-directed singing, in particular, demonstrate the everyday nature of music in infancy.This article is part of the theme issue ‘Voice modulation: from origin and mechanism to social impact (Part I)’.

description: We analyze the potential sensitivity of a search for $e\rightarrowτ$ conversion at a proposed electron-ion collider (EIC) facility. To that end, we calculate the cross sections for $e\rightarrowτ$ events in a leptoquark framework assuming that the leptoquark masses are on the order of several hundred GeV or more. Given present limits on leptoquarks from direct searches at HERA and rare decay processes, an EIC sensitive to 0.1 fb $e\rightarrowτ$ cross sections could probe previously unexplored regions of parameter space for these lepton flavor violating events (assuming 90 GeV center-of-mass energy and 10 fb$^{-1}$ integrated luminosity). Depending on the species of leptoquark and flavor structure of the couplings, an EIC search could surpass the HERA and rare process sensitivity to $e\rightarrowτ$ conversion amplitudes by as much as an order of magnitude or more. We also derive updated limits on quark flavor-diagonal LFV leptoquark interactions using the most recent BaBar $τ\rightarrow eγ$ search. We find that limits from an EIC $e\rightarrowτ$ search could be competitive with the most recent $τ\rightarrow eγ$ limit for a subset of the quark flavor-diagonal leptoquark couplings. Using an SU(5) GUT model in which leptoquark couplings are constrained by the neutrino masses and mixing, we illustrate how observable leptoquark-induced $e\rightarrowτ$ conversion can be consistent with stringent LFV limits imposed by $μ\rightarrow eγ$ and $μ\rightarrow e$ conversion searches.

description: Psychologists are interested in whether friends and couples share similar personalities or not. However, no statistical models are readily available to test the association between personalities and social relations in the literature. In this study, we develop a statistical model for analyzing social network data with the latent personality traits as covariates. Because the model contains a measurement model for the latent traits and a structural model for the relationship between the network and latent traits, we discuss it under the general framework of structural equation modeling (SEM). In our model, the structural relation between the latent variable(s) and the outcome variable is no longer linear or generalized linear. To obtain model parameter estimates, we propose to use a two-stage maximum likelihood (ML) procedure. This modeling framework is evaluated through a simulation study under representative conditions that would be found in social network data. Its usefulness is then demonstrated through an empirical application to a college friendship network.

description: Let the population of e.g. a country where some opinion struggle occurs be varying in time, according to Verhulst equation. Consider next some competition between opinions such as the dynamics be described by Lotka and Volterra equations. Two kinds of influences can be used, in such a model, for describing the dynamics of an agent opinion conversion: this can occur (i) either by means of mass communication tools, under some external field influence, or (ii) by means of direct interactions between agents. It results, among other features, that change(s) in environmental conditions can prevent the extinction of populations of followers of some ideology due to different kinds of resurrection effects. The tension arising in the country population is proposed to be measured by an appropriately defined scale index.
