Oryzaephilus surinamensi s is newly recorded in New Brunswick and Nova Scotia. The records from Newfoundland (Prévost and Bain 2007) are from archeological excavations of a latrine from deposits dated from approximately 1620. This cosmopolitan species is a serious pest of stored grain found primarily in granaries, grain elevators, and flour mills. Adults and larvae attack both damaged grain and processed cereals (Bousquet 1990). It is also found on dried fruit, copra, nuts, and carob (Thomas 1993). Unlike O. mercator, it can survive Canadian winter conditions in unheated premises (Bousquet 1990).

Animal Attractions: Cinema, Exoticism, and German Modernity
Creators: name: Ames, Eric

description: The paper analyzes the rich interconnections between the open zoos and early cinema. Between 1907 and 1913, these institutions engaged in a lively reciprocal exchange, supplying each other with attractions that mutually informed and expanded their different exhibition programs. At the same time, they commonly invoked cultural fantasies of exotic adventure, and transformed these fantasies into vicarious thrills. The entertainments of Carl Hagenbeck, Germany's most famous zookeeper, are a case in point. At his zoo in Hamburg, he 'modernized', popular exhibitions of the exotic and the primitive animals and foreign 'peoples', he also experimented with technological media (including cinema) and collaborated with early filmmakers.

description: The near-zero value of the cosmological constant Λin an equilibrium context may be due to the existence of a self-tuning relativistic vacuum variable q. Here, a cosmological nonequilibrium context is considered with a corresponding time-dependent cosmological parameter Λ(t) or vacuum energy density ρ_V(t). A specific model of a closed Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universe is presented, which is determined by equilibrium boundary conditions at one instant of time (t=t_{eq}) and a particular form of vacuum-energy dynamics (dρ_V/dt \propto ρ_M). This homogeneous and isotropic model has a standard Big Bang phase at early times (t << t_{eq}) and reproduces the main characteristics of the present universe (t=t_0 < t_{eq}).

description: A survey of Weimar cinema calls to mind several films that demonstrate a concern with weakened leadership and severed communal ties through the representation of public efforts to apprehend the deviant individual in the shadows of the city. This essay looks behind the scenes at the conditions under which the creators of these films crafted their tales of urban crime and detection, addressing a significant interplay between aesthetic production and actual criminal justice initiatives. Alongside and along with police education and legitimation projects, Weimar visual cultures criminal and legal narratives took part in a larger exploration of the status of the modern urban subject as participant in and product of culture and the law.

description: We analyse the effective supergravity model of a warped compactification with matter on D3 and D7-branes. We find that the main effect of the warp factor is to modify the F-terms while leaving the D-terms invariant. Hence warped models with moduli stabilisation and a small positive cosmological constant resulting from a large warping can only be achieved with an almost vanishing D-term and a F-term uplifting. By studying string-motivated examples with gaugino condensation on magnetised D7-branes, we find that even with a vanishing D-term, it is difficult to achieve a Minkowski minimum for reasonable parameter choices. When coupled to an ISS sector the AdS vacua is uplifted, resulting in a small gravitino mass for a warp factor of order 10^-5.

description: We study Mott transition in the two-dimensional Hubbard model on an anisotropic triangular lattice. We use the Lanczos exact diagonalization of finite-size clusters up to eighteen sites, and calculate Drude weight, charge gap, double occupancy and spin structure factor. We average these physical quantities over twisted boundary conditions in order to reduce finite-size effects. We find a signature of the Mott transition in the dependence of the Drude weight and/or charge gap on the system size. We also examine the possibility of antiferromagnetic order from the spin structure factor. Combining these information, we propose a ground-state phase diagram which has a nonmagnetic insulating phase between a metallic phase and an insulating phase with antiferromagnetic order. Finally, we compare our results with those reported in the previous theoretical studies, and discuss the possibility of an unconventional insulating state.

Harz Mountains

description: One of the aims of the EU-Horizon-2020-MEET-project (Multidisciplinary and multi-context demonstration of Enhanced Geothermal Systems exploration and Exploitation Techniques and potentials) is to explore and bring about this potential in Variscan crystalline and metasedimentary reservoirs. The Göttingen University Campus as one of the demo sites of the MEET-project focuses on the conversion of the University of Göttingen’s natural gas power plant, into a deep geothermal power plant to supply the district heating. Through investigative desk studies the Western Harz Mountains has been chosen as a suitable analogue for the basement seen in Göttingen. The Harz Mountains is contained within the Rhenohercynian zone, a fold belt that runs across Western Europe. This zone was formed during the Variscan Orogeny and is characterised by NW-SE verging fold and thrust belts. After some erosion of the Variscan Mountains and subsequent Triassic and Cretaceous uplift, exhumation of the Variscan basement (meta-greywackes, slates and quartzites) occurred, the same basement we find below Göttingen is found in the Western Harz Mountains. To the western area of the Harz the boundary between the autochthonous and allochthonous zones can be found. This boundary is thought to continue SW along strike subsequently through Göttingen, rendering this area as a suitable analogue. The main aim of this PhD research is to characterise the structural features of the Variscan fold and thrust belt seen in the Western Harz and how these features interact and change throughout the structural setting. To accomplish this, intensive field campaigns and photogrammetry sessions are undertaken for data collection and eventually a 3D structural model of the reservoir beneath Göttingen campus will be created. This model will contain detailed analysis of the fracture network and how parameters such as orientation, displacement, mineralisation, trace length and distribution change due to lithology and the primary fold and thrust structures. From this structural model, general conceptual reservoir models will be created which will be the basis to develop a reservoir model. The preliminary research presented shows the first stages of the characterisation of one of the chosen outcrop areas located in the Western Harz and the planned future work flow for the building of the structural model. This will include the initial structural field data and preliminary interpretations of the fold structures of the outcrops through digital methods, as well as future plans for the characterisation of this Variscan metasediment reservoir.

description: Science and technologies based on terahertz frequency electromagnetic radiation (100 GHz–30 THz) have developed rapidly over the last 30 years. For most of the 20th Century, terahertz radiation, then referred to as sub-millimeter wave or far-infrared radiation, was mainly utilized by astronomers and some spectroscopists. Following the development of laser based terahertz time-domain spectroscopy in the 1980s and 1990s the field of THz science and technology expanded rapidly, to the extent that it now touches many areas from fundamental science to 'real world' applications. For example THz radiation is being used to optimize materials for new solar cells, and may also be a key technology for the next generation of airport security scanners. While the field was emerging it was possible to keep track of all new developments, however now the field has grown so much that it is increasingly difficult to follow the diverse range of new discoveries and applications that are appearing. At this point in time, when the field of THz science and technology is moving from an emerging to a more established and interdisciplinary field, it is apt to present a roadmap to help identify the breadth and future directions of the field. The aim of this roadmap is to present a snapshot of the present state of THz science and technology in 2017, and provide an opinion on the challenges and opportunities that the future holds. To be able to achieve this aim, we have invited a group of international experts to write 18 sections that cover most of the key areas of THz science and technology. We hope that The 2017 Roadmap on THz science and technology will prove to be a useful resource by providing a wide ranging introduction to the capabilities of THz radiation for those outside or just entering the field as well as providing perspective and breadth for those who are well established. We also feel that this review should serve as a useful guide for government and funding agencies.

description: The phase diagram of a simple area-preserving map, which was motivated by the quantum dynamics of cold atoms, is explored analytically and numerically. Periodic orbits of a given winding ratio are found to exist within wedge-shaped regions in the phase diagrams, which are analogous to the Arnol'd tongues which have been extensively studied for a variety of dynamical systems, mostly dissipative ones. A rich variety of bifurcations of various types are observed, as well as period doubling cascades. Stability of periodic orbits is analyzed in detail.

Boundary effect of a partition in a quantum well

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2006
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The paper wishes to demonstrate that, in quantum systems with boundaries, different boundary conditions can lead to remarkably different physical behaviour. Our seemingly innocent setting is a one dimensional potential well that is divided into two halves by a thin separating wall. The two half wells are populated by the same type and number of particles and are kept at the same temperature. The only difference is in the boundary condition imposed at the two sides of the separating wall, which is the Dirichlet condition from the left and the Neumann condition from the right. The resulting different energy spectra cause a difference in the quantum statistically emerging pressure on the two sides. The net force acting on the separating wall proves to be nonzero at any temperature and, after a weak decrease in the low temperature domain, to increase and diverge with a square-root-of-temperature asymptotics for high temperatures. These observations hold for both bosonic and fermionic type particles, but with quantitative differences. We work out several analytic approximations to explain these differences and the various aspects of the found unexpectedly complex picture.

Monotone regression functions
Creators: name: Zuo, Yanling
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: In some applications, we require a monotone estimate of a regression function. In others, we want to test whether the regression function is monotone. For solving the first problem, Ramsay's, Kelly and Rice's, as well as point-wise monotone regression functions in a spline space are discussed and their properties developed. Three monotone estimates are defined: least-square regression splines, smoothing splines and binomial regression splines. The three estimates depend upon a "smoothing parameter": the number and location of knots in regression splines and the usual [formula omitted] in smoothing splines. Two standard techniques for choosing the smoothing parameter, GCV and AIC, are modified for monotone estimation, for the normal errors case. For answering the second question, a test statistic is proposed and its null distribution conjectured. Simulations are carried out to check the conjecture. These techniques are applied to two data sets.

description: It is well-known that data-driven models for the tip-tilt modes significantly improve the performance of Adaptive Optics (AO) systems as it allows to compensate for vibration-induced disturbances. Whether identifying from data the temporal dynamics of more modes makes an impact on the performance has been studied on-sky with the CANARY demonstrator at the William Herschel Telescope in July 2019. In this brief paper, we report on these experiments using both Strehl ratios computed from the science camera in H band or by replaying the AO telemetry data in numerical simulations. We show that Linear Quadratic Gaussian (LQG) controllers that embed a data-driven model for the low-orders (that are not limited to the tip-tilt) improve the performance of the AO for two different dynamical behaviours of the atmospheric turbulence.

description: It is proved here that, as a consequence of the unitary quantum evolution, the expectation value of a properly defined quantum entropy operator (as opposed to the non-evolving von Neumann entropy) can only increase during non adiabatic transformations and remains constant during adiabatic ones. Thus Clausius formulation of the second law is established as a theorem in quantum mechanics, in a way that is equivalent to the previously established formulation in terms of minimal work principle [A. E. Allahverdyan and T. M. Nieuwenhuizen, Phys. Rev. E 71, 046107 (2005)]. The corresponding Quantum Mechanical Principle of Entropy Increase is then illustrated with an exactly solvable example, namely the driven harmonic oscillator. Attention is paid to both microcanonical and canonical initial condition. The results are compared to their classical counterparts.

description: We show how effectively the diffusive capture processes (DCP) on complex networks can be applied to information search in the networks. Numerical simulations show that our method generates only 2% of traffic compared with the most popular flooding-based query-packet-forwarding (FB) algorithm. We find that the average searching time, $$, of the our model is more scalable than another well known $n$-random walker model and comparable to the FB algorithm both on real Gnutella network and scale-free networks with $γ=2.4$. We also discuss the possible relationship between $$ and $$, the second moment of the degree distribution of the networks.

description: Pediacus fuscus Erichson, 1845 This Holarctic species was recorded from both New Brunswick and Labrador by Bousquet (1991) (Fig. 2). In the Old World the species is found in Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Sweden, northern Russia, and Siberia (Slipinski 2007). In North America they have been recorded from Alaska, the Northwest Territories and British Columbia east across Canada to Labrador and in the United States from Colorado, Maine, Michigan, New Hampshire, and Wisconsin (Thomas 2004). Species in the genus Pediacus are predominantly found under the bark of dead conifers (Th omas 2004). In Latvia several specimens were collected under the bark of Scotch pine (Pinus sylvestris L., Pinaceae) (Telnov et al. 2007; D. Telnov pers. comm.).

Aspects of eros in Emile Zola's Germinal
Creators: name: Sandford, Luke Heston
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: According to classical Greek mythology, Eros was one of the first beings to arise out of Chaos and represented the concepts of harmony and union necessary in creating the world and its creatures. The primary fear that Zola addresses (and exploits) in Germinal is the fear of anarchy and of social chaos. This is accomplished thanks to a relentless textual insistency on eroticism. This emphasis on human sexuality, along with Zola's ground-breaking treatment of the working class, represents the breaking of the two greatest literary taboos in nineteenth century French literature: the vivid depiction of bodily urges and the minute examination of the proletariat. Our thesis is that the revolutionary impact and the incontestable literary longevity of Germinal stem largely from Zola's successful shattering of these timorous traditions--the logical extension of reigning bourgeois morals--via his persistent depictions of the corporeal and the erotic. This essay, therefore, is an attempt to analyze, to describe, and to reconcile the diverse and contradictory elements which comprise the erotic subtext in Zola's most famous novel, that is to provide an erotic reading of Germinal.

description: Magnetotransport measurements in large diameter multiwall carbon nanotubes (20-40 nm) demonstrate the competition of a magnetic-field dependent bandstructure and Altshuler-Aronov-Spivak oscillations. By means of an efficient capacitive coupling to a backgate electrode, the magnetoconductance oscillations are explored as a function of Fermi level shift. Changing the magnetic field orientation with respect to the tube axis and by ensemble averaging, allows to identify the contributions of different Aharonov-Bohm phases. The results are in qualitative agreement with numerical calculations of the band structure and the conductance.

It is demonstrated that the static CO develops markedly in the inhomogeneous PG state, while it is very weak in the homogeneous PG state. We suggest that this static CO, which is considered to be stabilized by the pinning of the dynamically fluctuating CO, will remain below {\it T}$_{\rm c}$, together with the inhomogeneous gap structure, and coexist with the superconductivity.

description: We theoretically study single and two-qubit dynamics in the circuit QED architecture. We focus on the current experimental design [Wallraff et al., Nature 431, 162 (2004); Schuster et al., Nature 445, 515 (2007)] in which superconducting charge qubits are capacitively coupled to a single high-Q superconducting coplanar resonator. In this system, logical gates are realized by driving the resonator with microwave fields. Advantages of this architecture are that it allows for multi-qubit gates between non-nearest qubits and for the realization of gates in parallel, opening the possibility of fault-tolerant quantum computation with superconduting circuits. In this paper, we focus on one and two-qubit gates that do not require moving away from the charge-degeneracy `sweet spot'. This is advantageous as it helps to increase the qubit dephasing time and does not require modification of the original circuit QED. However these gates can, in some cases, be slower than those that do not use this constraint. Five types of two-qubit gates are discussed, these include gates based on virtual photons, real excitation of the resonator and a gate based on the geometric phase. We also point out the importance of selection rules when working at the charge degeneracy point.

description: We consider the correlation of two single-particle probability densities $|Ψ_{E}({\bf r})|^{2}$ at coinciding points ${\bf r}$ as a function of the energy separation $ω=|E-E'|$ for disordered tight-binding lattice models (the Anderson models) and certain random matrix ensembles. We focus on the models in the parameter range where they are close but not exactly at the Anderson localization transition. We show that even far away from the critical point the eigenfunction correlation show the remnant of multifractality which is characteristic of the critical states. By a combination of the numerical results on the Anderson model and analytical and numerical results for the relevant random matrix theories we were able to identify the Gaussian random matrix ensembles that describe the multifractal features in the metal and insulator phases. In particular those random matrix ensembles describe new phenomena of eigenfunction correlation we discovered from simulations on the Anderson model. These are the eigenfunction mutual avoiding at large energy separations and the logarithmic enhancement of eigenfunction correlations at small energy separations in the two-dimensional (2D) and the three-dimensional (3D) Anderson insulator. For both phenomena a simple and general physical picture is suggested.

CAPACITY LIMITS

description: We have considered the problem of finding optimal transmission beams, or eigenmodes, for propagation through the random atmosphere with minimum distortion. We have found, making a realistic assumption that a transmitter knows atmospheric turbulence statistics, but not the instantaneous state of the atmosphere, that these stochastic eigenmodes are Laguerre-Gauss (LG) modes with beam waist chosen adequately relative to the field coherence length in the receiver plane. We have shown in our analysis that these eigenmodes have the remarkable capability of enduring coherence during propagation in turbulence. The ability to order the strength of individual stochastic eigenmodes notwithstanding turbulence is fundamental. It allows using of optimal transmission strategies that only consider the small number of most robust modes and significantly outperform conventional fixed mode sets under weak or strong turbulence conditions. Using these eigenmodes as transmit and receive bases minimizes signal degradation by turbulence, and minimizes the complexity of any signal processing for compensating the impact of turbulence. Adaptive optics can be replaced by adaptive multi-input multi-output signal processing, enabling compensation of fast fluctuations of both phase and amplitude.

description: We study the lowest-lying scalar mesons in the QCD sum rule by considering them as tetraquark states. We find that there are five independent currents for each state with a certain flavor structure. By forming linear combinations, we find that some mixed currents give reliable QCD sum rules. Among various tetraquark currents, we consider those which are constructed by the diquarks having anti-symmetric and symmetric flavor structures. That the results of the QCD sum rule derived from the two types of currents are similar suggests that the tetraquark states can have a large mixing between different flavor structures.

description: As a well established, large-scale distributed storage system, dCache is used to manage and serve huge amounts of data collected by high energy physics, astrophysics and photon science experiments. Based on a microservices-like architecture, dCache is built as a modular distributed system, where each component provides a different core functionality. These services communicate by passing serialized messages to each other, a core behavior whose performance properties can consequently affect the entire system. This thesis compares and evaluates different data serialization protocols in computer science with the objective of replacing and improving upon Java Object Serialization (JOS ), which has increasingly presented itself as no longer being sufficiently performant for encoding messages. The criteria for choosing a new framework are collected, analyzed and formalized. The primary motivation for replacing Java serialization is increasing the general speed of message-passing and thereby reducing the round-trip time for user requests. Emphasis is also placed on schema evolution capabilities and framework usability. Approaches for generalizing (de)serialization speedand size measurements based on data structure complexity are introduced, criteria for measuring documentation, learning curve, maintainability and introduction effort are defined. Finally, several selected serialization protocols are evaluated and compared accordingly, concluding with a recommendation for a suitable JOS replacement.
