description: We present three-dimensional solutions of the magnetohydrostatic equations in the co-rotating frame of reference outside a magnetized rigidly rotating cylinder. We make no symmetry assumption for the magnetic field, but to be able to make analytical progress we neglect outflows and specify a particular form for the current density. The magnetohydrostatic equations can then be reduced to a single linear partial differential equation for a pseudo-potential $U$, from which the magnetic field can be calculated by differentiation. The equation for $U$ can be solved by standard methods. The solutions can also be used to determine the plasma pressure, density and temperature as functions of all three spatial coordinates. Despite the obvious limitations of this approach, it can for example be used as a simple tool to create three-dimensional models for the closed field line regions of rotating magnetospheres without rotational symmetry.

Year: 2025

description: This study analyzes the influence of traditions on the development and functioning of family businesses in Samarkand. The focus is on the relationship between the cultural heritage of the region, traditional production and management methods and the contemporary challenges of the globalized market. The analysis considers both positive aspects (e.g. strong social capital, established reputation, customer loyalty) and negative aspects (limited access to finance, conservatism, difficulties in adapting to innovations). The study examines the mechanisms of intergenerational transmission of knowledge and skills, the role of traditional credit and financial management systems, and the impact of traditional perceptions of wealth and success on family business development strategies. The results of the study reveal both the potential of preserving traditional crafts and cultural heritage and the need to adapt to modern realities to ensure sustainable development of family businesses in Samarkand.

subject: Intensive care

description: Frailty is a multidimensional syndrome that is characterised by a decline in body function and systems. Patients with frailty are more likely to have adverse outcomes, such as disabilities and mortality, as well as requiring hospitalisation and long-term care. When patients with frailty are admitted to intensive care, it is important to assess their level of frailty as early possible as this condition poses new challenges in providing optimal care for them. It is also important to ensure that resources are ethically and economically allocated. This thesis has sought to quantify frailty in critically ill patients, including those with severe COVID-19, and explore the timeliness of goals of care for frail critically ill patients to determine the extent to which intensive-care treatments might benefit individual patients.

description: This thesis investigates the use of Artificial Intelligence (AI) for skin cancer diagnosis. It explores how personality characteristics, cognitive styles and biases may impact adoption and safety of an AI diagnostic tool. An interventional trial found that the AI diagnosed skin lesions with high accuracy, comparable to dermatologists. The AI also improved the diagnostic accuracy of less experienced clinicians. An online reader study and survey demonstrated that clinicians have high confidence in the AI and perceive it to be useful. Clinicians who change their diagnoses more often after interacting with the AI have less dermatology experience and higher agreeableness.

description: This article discusses the limits of the Anthropogenic Global Warming Theory advocated by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change. A phenomenological theory of climate change based on the physical properties of the data themselves is proposed. At least 60% of the warming of the Earth observed since 1970 appears to be induced by natural cycles which are present in the solar system. A climatic stabilization or cooling until 2030-2040 is forecast by the phenomenological model.

description: The main goal of this master thesis project is to compare two PVT simulation software packages. The simulator software programs under study are the KBC’s (now acquired by Yokogawa Company) Multiflash and HydraFLASH from HydraFact Ltd. Both simulators are supposed to make same predictions and compared to existing experimental data. However, it is shown that performance of them might exhibit significant differences, even though same equations of state were applied for calculations in both software.
Introduction chapter provides brief description of Carbon Capture and Storage process, as well as overview of properties of carbon dioxide. In Chapter 2, popular equations of states employed for calculations will be presented, as well as short description of software packages used for this project. In chapter 3 density will be discussed, which is one of the most important thermophysical property for CCS processes. Both multi-component and binary mixtures will be examined. In chapter 4, speed of sound property will be discussed. Chapter 5 presents solubility of CO2 in water and salt aqueous phase, and lastly Chapter 6, provides information about hydrate dissociation data between two software and experimental data. In the conclusions part our thoughts regarding both software packages will be finalized and therefore final judgement will be made.
By finalizing this study, a more solid judgement on performance of these two software programs on the different simulations has been built.
Power loss and electromagnetic energy density in a dispersive metamaterial medium

description: The power loss and electromagnetic energy density of a metamaterial consisting of arrays of wires and split-ring resonators (SRRs) are investigated. We show that a field energy density formula can be derived consistently from both the electrodynamic (ED) approach and the equivalent circuit (EC) approach. The derivations are based on the knowledge of the dynamical equations of the electric and magnetic dipoles in the medium and the correct form of the power loss. We discuss the role of power loss in determining the form of energy density and explain why the power loss should be identified first in the ED derivation. When the power loss is negligible and the field is harmonic, our energy density formula reduces to the result of Landau's classical formula. For the general case with finite power loss, our investigation resolves the apparent contradiction between the previous results derived by the EC and ED approaches.

description: In an earlier paper the authors provided general conditions on a real codimension 2 submanifold $S\subset C^{n}$, $n\ge 3$, such that there exists a possibly singular Levi-flat hypersurface $M$ bounded by $S$. In this paper we consider the case when $S$ is a graph of a smooth function over the boundary of a bounded strongly convex domain $Ω\subset C^{n-1}\times R$ and show that in this case $M$ is necessarily a graph of a smooth function over $Ω$. In particular, $M$ is non-singular.
Vitrification, relaxation and free volume in glycerol-water binary liquid mixture: Spin probe ESR studies

description: Glass transition and relaxation of the glycerol-water binary mixture system are studied over the glycerol concentration range of 5 - 85 mol% using the highly sensitive technique of spin probe ESR. For the water rich mixture the glass transition, sensed by the spin probe, arises from the vitrified mesoscopic portion of the binary system. The concentration dependence of the glass transition temperature manifests a closely related molecular level cooperativity in the system. A drastic change in the mesoscopic structure of the system at the critical concentration of 40 mol% is confirmed by an estimation of the spin probe effective volume in a temperature range where the tracer reorientation is strongly coupled to the system dynamics.

description: SDSS J080434.20+510349.2 is the WZ type binary that displayed rare outburst in 2006 (Pavlenko et al., 2007). During the long-lasting tail of the late stage of the outburst binary shown the two-humped or four-humped profile of the orbital light modulation. The amplitude of orbital light curve decreased while the mean brightness decreased, more over that occurred $\sim$ 10 times faster during the fast outburst decline in respect to the late quiet state of slow outburst fading. There were no white dwarf pulsations detected neither 1 - 1.5 months prior to the outburst nor in 1.5 - 2 months after the 2006 outburst in this system. However the strong non-radial pulsations with period 12.6 minutes and mean amplitude of 0.05^m were first detected in V band with 2.6-m Shajn mirror telescope of the Crimean astrophysical observatory in ~ 8 months after the outburst. The evolution of pulsations over two years in 2006 - 2008 is considered. It is supposed that pulsations first appeared when the cooling white dwarf (after the outburst) entered the instability strip although the possibility of temporary lack of pulsations at some occasions also could not be excluded.

A critical physical geography of conservation, water, and scientific research in the Bale Mountains, Ethiopia
Creators: name: Chignell, Stephen
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2025

description: The increasing recognition that the Earth is deeply shaped by interactions between biophysical and social forces has resulted in a refrain for research that integrates biophysical and social sciences. The field of critical physical geography (CPG) offers one way forward, combining approaches from science and technology studies, political ecology, and environmental history with close attention to biophysical processes. This dissertation takes a CPG approach to examining the case of Ethiopia’s Bale Mountains and its national park, an internationally recognized area of endemism and the headwaters of several major rivers. The first section of the dissertation situates the science of the Bale Mountains, examining how socio-political histories extend into scientific practice. The second section explores alternative constructions of the landscape. The first section begins with a chapter on conceptual bridge-building, arguing why and how emerging network analysis and science mapping techniques should be adopted as core methods in CPG practice. Chapter 3 demonstrates this by using science mapping to identify the social, conceptual, and intellectual structures of the Bale Mountains corpus and how these have (re)produced the dominant framing of the landscape over time. Chapter 4 builds on this by scrutinizing the notion of the ‘Ethiopian Highlands’—a key element of how the region has been framed—and its associated metaphors. It traces the political-economic, biophysical, and epistemic factors by which this category came into use, and how these intersected to maintain a particular yet partial vision of the region. Chapter 5 highlights the region’s historical socio-cultural characteristics through an in-depth analysis of its placenames, challenging the dominant wilderness narrative perpetuated by the national park and conservation literature and pointing to the longstanding human presence and hydrosocial characteristics of the landscape. Chapter 6 uses remote sensing and geospatial data to explore the potential role of groundwater on the region's ecohydrology, proposing a new model of how water moves through the system. Collectively, this dissertation brings together socio-cultural and biophysical information to understand key overlooked aspects of the Bale Mountains including a reimagining of the region, while also demonstrating several mixed-methods approaches with relevance for CPG and related fields.
N=2 Superconformal Algebra and the Entropy of Calabi-Yau Manifolds

description: We use the representation theory of N=2 superconformal algebra to study the elliptic genera of Calabi-Yau (CY) D-folds. We compute the entropy of CY manifolds from the growth rate of multiplicities of the massive (non-BPS) representations in the decomposition of their elliptic genera. We find that the entropy of CY manifolds of complex dimension D behaves differently depending on whether D is even or odd. When D is odd, CY entropy coincides with the entropy of the corresponding hyperKahler (D-3)-folds due to a structural theorem on Jacobi forms. In particular, we find that the Calabi-Yau 3-fold has a vanishing entropy. At D>3, using our previous results on hyperKahler manifolds, we find $S_{CY_D} \sim 2π\sqrt{{(D-3)^2\over 2(D-1)}n}$. When D is even, we find the behavior of CY entropy behaving as $S_{CY_D}\sim 2 π\sqrt{{D-1\over 2}n}$. These agree with Cardy's formula at large D.

description: The walls of the box which contains matter represent a membrane that allows the relativistic quantum vacuum to pass but not matter. That is why the pressure of matter in the box may be considered as the analog of the osmotic pressure. However, we demonstrate that the osmotic pressure of matter is modified due to interaction of matter with vacuum. This interaction induces the nonzero negative vacuum pressure inside the box, as a result the measured osmotic pressure becomes smaller than the matter pressure. As distinct from the Casimir effect, this induced vacuum pressure is the bulk effect and does not depend on the size of the box. This effect dominates in the thermodynamic limit of the infinite volume of the box. Analog of this effect has been observed in the dilute solution of 3He in liquid 4He, where the superfluid 4He plays the role of the non-relativistic quantum vacuum, and 3He atoms play the role of matter.

title: Growth controls of rhodoliths (Lithothamnion glaciale) and relationships between structural complexity and macrofaunal diversity in subarctic rhodolith beds
Creators: name: Bélanger, David
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
Year: 2020

description: Coastal benthic ecosystems are major contributors to oceans global productivity and biodiversity. Research has historically focused on charismatic ecosystems such as coral reefs, kelp beds and seagrass meadows. This paradigm may overshadow the biogeochemical functions and ecological importance to coastal oceans of other less studied communities. Rhodoliths are benthic, unattached, slow-growing coralline red algae. Rhodoliths may aggregate into extensive and diverse communities called rhodolith beds, which occur within the photic zone in all oceans, from the tropics to the poles. This thesis used long-term laboratory and field experiments as well as seasonal surveys to characterize controls of growth in Lithothamnion glaciale rhodoliths and to investigate the relationship between structural complexity and the diversity of rhodolith-associated macrofauna in a subarctic rhodolith bed from southeastern Newfoundland. Results showed that rhodolith growth is negatively affected by elevated nutrient (N and P) concentrations and biofouling. Rhodolith growth was mainly controlled by irradiance and was unaffected by temperatures between ~1 and 17°C, but appeared to be inhibited by temperatures ≤ 0.5°C. Rhodolith bed structure showed little annual spatial and temporal variations. Macrofaunal density scaled positively with total rhodolith volume per surface area, whereas biomass did not. Results also suggest that rhodolith morphology exerts a control on the diversity of macrofauna associated to rhodoliths. Macrofaunal assemblages varied spatially and temporally in most taxonomic groups with few, uncommon taxa being generally responsible for dissimilarity between sites and among seasons. These findings provide novel insights into the ecology and vulnerability of rhodoliths to anthropogenic threats and climate change while elevating the importance of subarctic L. glaciale beds as a key ecosystem in the Northwest Atlantic.

description: This paper analyzes how multinational firms' internal debt financing affects high‐tax countries. It uses a dynamic small open economy model and takes into account that internal debt impacts both the multinational firms' investment decisions and the government's tax policy. The government has incentives to redistribute income from firm owners to workers. If the government's redistributive motive is not too strong, internal debt reduces welfare in the short term by decreasing tax revenues. However, debt financing stimulates capital accumulation and exerts a positive long‐term welfare impact.

description: The asymptotically-logarithmically-AdS black-hole solutions of 5D dilaton gravity with a monotonic dilaton potential are analyzed in detail. Such theories are holographically very close to pure Yang-Mills theory in four dimensions. The existence and uniqueness of black-hole solutions is shown. It is also shown that a Hawking-Page transition exists at finite temperature if and only if the potential corresponds to a confining theory. The physics of the transition matches in detail with that of deconfinement of the Yang-Mills theory. The high-temperature phase asymptotes to a free gluon gas at high temperature matching the expected behavior from asymptotic freedom. The thermal gluon condensate is calculated and shown to be crucial for the existence of a non-trivial deconfining transition. The condensate of the topological charge is shown to vanish in the deconfined phase.

title: Genomic and functional analyses of Newfoundland and Labrador families with intracranial aneurysms
Creators: name: Pennell, Julia
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland

description: The integrity of an arterial wall is impacted by various genetic, environmental, and physiological factors that predispose to intracranial aneurysm (IA) formation in certain individuals. In this study, whole exome sequencing was completed on a large cohort of families from the Newfoundland and Labrador population to identify genetic predispositions contributing to IA development. With the use of Sanger sequencing, HAL (c.959C>T; p.T320M) emerged as a favourable candidate variant, and morpholino mediated gene knockdown of hal in Danio rerio (zebrafish) demonstrated a dose-dependent hemorrhagic phenotype. The re-expression of wildtype HAL RNA in the hal morpholino background was able to rescue the hemorrhagic phenotype while mutant HAL RNA was not. These results suggest that the HAL (c.959C>T; p.T320M) variant could be contributing to IA development in Family R1262. Additional analysis of the HAL gene could help determine the extent of its involvement and contribute to an improved understanding of IA pathogenesis.

title: Chronischer Stress und Erschöpfung bei Psychotherapeut*innen und Klinischen Psycholog*innen zu Zeiten der COVID-19-Pandemie in Österreich
Creators: name: Matz, Monika
Year: 2023

description: Ziel: Psychotherapeut*innen und Klinische Psycholog*innen nehmen angesichts der COVID-19-Pandemie eine essenzielle Rolle ein und sind gleichzeitig zusätzlichen, neuen Herausforderungen ausgesetzt. Das Ziel der vorliegenden Studie bestand darin, das Verständnis von chronischem Stress und Erschöpfung bei diesen Berufsgruppen zu Zeiten der COVID-19-Pandemie in Österreich zu erweitern. Dabei wurde ein besonderer Fokus auf die Bestimmung etwaiger protektiver beziehungsweise einflussreicher Variablen gelegt. Methode: Hierzu wurde eine Erhebung mittels Online-Fragebogen an einer durch Berufsverbände sowie Soziale Medien rekrutierten Stichprobe (N = 76, 87 % weiblich) durchgeführt. Dieser Online-Fragebogen inkludierte Messinstrumente zur Erhebung von chronischem Stress, Erschöpfung, Resilienz, sozialer Unterstützung, dispositionalen Stressreaktivität, depressiven Symptomatik und Fragen zu soziodemographischen beziehungsweise berufsbezogenen Daten. Ergebnisse: Die Ergebnisse zeigten keinen signifikanten Einfluss von chronischem Stress auf Erschöpfung. Die gefundene, signifikante Korrelation zwischen den beiden Variablen deutet jedoch darauf hin, dass eine höhere Ausprägung von chronischem Stress mit einem höheren Ausmaß an Erschöpfung einhergeht (r = .60, p < .001). Ebenso konnten keine linearen Moderationseffekte von Resilienz oder sozialer Unterstützung hinsichtlich des Zusammenhangs zwischen chronischem Stress und Erschöpfung nachgewiesen werden, obwohl ein signifikanter Einfluss von Resilienz auf Erschöpfung gefunden wurde (b = -.854, t (66) = -2.92, p = .005). Die Spearman’sche Rangkorrelation zwischen dispositionaler Stressreaktivität und Erschöpfung war signifikant, positiv und mittelstark (ρ = .45, p < .001). Schlussfolgerung: Die in dieser Studie gefundenen Ergebnisse tragen viel Potential für die Entwicklung neuer Interventionen bei Psychotherapeut*innen und Klinischen Psycholog*innen mit sich. Gleichzeitig betonen sie in ihrer Widersprüchlichkeit die Komplexität der untersuchten Konstrukte und die Notwendigkeit zukünftiger Untersuchungen von chronischem Stress und Erschöpfung bei Psychotherapeut*innen sowie Klinischen Psycholog*innen.

description: Pancreatic and oesophagogastric cancers have a poor prognosis and high symptom burden making supportive care critical. This thesis aimed to explore the uptake and quality of supportive care. Analysis of data across Victoria, Australia demonstrated that utilisation of supportive care services, including palliative care, following a pancreatic or oesophagogastric cancer diagnosis was generally low and varied according to socio-demographic and clinical characteristics. Interviews with people living with pancreatic and oesophagogastric cancers revealed that there was a desire for access to more timely, culturally-appropriate and high-quality multidisciplinary supportive care. Finally, a review of clinical trials available to people living with pancreatic cancer highlighted that there are very few trials investigating supportive care related interventions. Overall, the findings of this thesis indicate that there is significant opportunity to improve accessibility to and the quality of supportive care in pancreatic and oesophagogastric cancers.

description: GSM networks are very expensive. The network design process requires too many decisions in a combinatorial explosion. For this reason, the larger is the network, the harder is to achieve a totally human based optimized solution. The BSC (Base Station Control) nodes have to be geographically well allocated to reduce the transmission costs. There are decisions of association between BTS and BSC those impacts in the correct dimensioning of these BSC. The choice of BSC quantity and model capable of carrying the cumulated traffic of its affiliated BTS nodes in turn reflects on the total cost. In addition, the last component of the total cost is due to transmission for linking BSC nodes to MSC. These trunks have a major significance since the number of required E1 lines is larger than BTS to BSC link. This work presents an integer programming model and a computational tool for designing GSM (Global System for Mobile Communications) networks, regarding BSS (Base Station Subsystem) with optimized cost.

description: We consider the two main theorems in the derivation of the Quantum Hamilton--Jacobi Equation from the Equivalence Postulate (EP) of quantum mechanics. The first one concerns a basic cocycle condition, which holds in any dimension with Euclidean or Minkowski metrics and implies a global conformal symmetry underlying the Quantum Hamilton--Jacobi Equation. In one dimension such a condition fixes the Schwarzian equation. The second theorem concerns energy quantization which follows rigorously from consistency of the equivalence postulate.

Development and characterization of dextran-functionalized nanoparticles and assemblies for applications in bioanalysis and imaging
Creators: name: Rees, Kelly
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2025

description: Luminescent nanomaterials such as colloidal semiconductor quantum dots (QDs) are promising materials for applications in bioanalysis and imaging. QDs have become a popular choice for use alongside or as a replacement to fluorescent dyes because of their generally superior properties, including high brightness, resistance to photobleaching, and potential for colour multiplexing. QD-based materials are also well suited to advancing smartphone-based point-of-care (POC) diagnostics, where brighter fluorescent labels with specific spectral properties are essential. However, effective use of QDs requires optimized surface chemistry and bioconjugation. This thesis presents original research towards the development of dextran-functionalized QDs and other nanomaterials for applications in bioanalysis and imaging. Several dextran ligands were synthesized and used to functionalize single QDs (Dex-QDs). The Dex-QDs were thoroughly characterized and proof-of-concept applications were demonstrated, including novel tetrameric antibody complex (TAC)-based immunolabelling of breast cancer cells. To develop brighter nanomaterials, amphiphilic dextran was prepared and used in a simple and rapid emulsion-based approach for forming super-nanoparticle assemblies of many hydrophobic QDs (super-QDs). The super-QDs were bright and non-blinking, outperforming Dex-QDs in TAC-based immunolabelling and imaging of cancer cells on both a traditional research-grade microscope and a smartphone-based imaging platform. Additional colours of super-QDs were prepared using mixtures of red, green, and blue QDs, which made it possible to obtain colours of super-QDs that would be difficult to obtain from individual QDs (e.g., magenta). Amphiphilic dextran was also used to stabilize conjugated polymer nanoparticles (CPNs) and super-nanoparticle assemblies of nanomaterials other than QDs, demonstrating the generality of the approach across a range of nanomaterials. Dextran-functionalization provided multiple benefits to all of the prepared nanomaterials, including good colloidal stability, low non-specific binding, and support of immunoconjugation and immunofluorescent labelling via TACs. Overall, this thesis makes important contributions to the field of bioanalysis and imaging with QDs and other nanoparticles, addressing longstanding challenges in surface chemistry and bioconjugation, while providing a materials-based approach to signal amplification. The research advances the use of QDs for cellular imaging, in vitro diagnostics, and especially point-of-care diagnostics with smartphone-based devices.
