The metamorphism and alteration of the basement rocks in the Carswell circular structure, Saskatchewan
Creators: name: Herring, Bernard Geoffrey
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This thesis reports on a petrographic study of the metamorphosed Precambrian basement rocks exposed in the Carswell Circular Structure in the Athabasca sandstone of northern Saskatchewan. A descriptive classification of the rocks present is set up, and comprehensive illustrations are provided for the benefit of subsequent workers in the area. The basement rocks consist of gneisses and pegmatites, and have been metamorphosed to the granulite facies, with subsequent partial retrogression to upper amphibolite facies. This retrogression evidently resulted from increased availability of water, and may be related to the emplacement of pegmatites. A study of Mg-Fe partitioning between coexisting proxenes indicates that prograde metamorphism occurred at a temperature of about 800°C, consistent with the granulite facies. The basement rocks are highly altered by low-temperature hydration. Geochronologic studies suggest that this alteration occurred at about one billion years before present, and is therefore distinct from prograde metamorphism (two billion years) and from the Circular Structure "event" (480 million years). The alteration is considered to have been related to uranium mineralisation, and a possible model for the emplacement of mineralisation is discussed.

description: We report the discovery of an isolated white dwarf with a spin period of 70 s. We obtained high speed photometry of three ultramassive white dwarfs within 100 pc, and discovered significant variability in one. SDSS J221141.80+113604.4 is a $1.27~M_{\odot}$ (assuming a CO core) magnetic white dwarf that shows 2.9\% brightness variations in the BG40 filter with a $70.32 \pm 0.04$ s period, becoming the fastest spinning isolated white dwarf currently known. A detailed model atmosphere analysis shows that it has a mixed hydrogen and helium atmosphere with a dipole field strength of $B_d = 15$ MG. Given its large mass, fast rotation, strong magnetic field, unusual atmospheric composition, and relatively large tangential velocity for its cooling age, J2211+1136 displays all of the signatures of a double white dwarf merger remnant. Long term monitoring of the spin evolution of J2211+1136 and other fast spinning isolated white dwarfs opens a new discovery space for substellar and planetary mass companions around white dwarfs. In addition, the discovery of such fast rotators outside of the ZZ Ceti instability strip suggests that some should also exist within the strip. Hence, some of the mono-periodic variables found within the instability strip may be fast spinning white dwarfs impersonating ZZ Ceti pulsators.

description: We have performed a census of the young stellar populations near the Corona Australis molecular cloud using photometric and kinematic data from several sources, particularly Gaia EDR3, and spectroscopy of hundreds of candidate members. We have compiled a catalog of 393 members of Corona Australis, (39 at >M6), 293 (36) of which are spectroscopically classified for the first time in this work. We find that Corona Australis can be described in terms of two stellar populations, a younger one (few Myr) that is partially embedded in the cloud (the Coronet Cluster) and an older one (~15 Myr) that surrounds and extends beyond the cloud (Upper Corona Australis). These populations exhibit similar space velocities, and we find no evidence for distinct kinematic populations in Corona Australis, in contrast to a recent study based on Gaia DR2. The distribution of spectral types in Corona Australis reaches a maximum at M5 (~0.15 M_sol), indicating that the IMF has a similar characteristic mass as other nearby star-forming regions. Finally, we have compiled mid-infrared photometry from the Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer and the Spitzer Space Telescope for the members of Corona Australis and we have used those data to identify and classify their circumstellar disks. Excesses are detected for 122 stars, a third of which are reported for the first time in this work.

title: The Use of Object-Oriented Design Methodologies in Systems Design
Creators: name: Larkin, Rick C.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1993

description: Object-oriented design methodologies, along with object-oriented programming techniques, have recently gained significant popularity as their advantages have become evident. Traditional methodologies following the structured approach have not been successful in providing an accurate model of the business system.Object-oriented techniques, where an object in the computer system corresponds to a real-world object, have been much more successful in accurately modeling the business system and its environment.
Object-oriented methodologies provide many advantages over structured approaches to systems design. Concepts such as data hiding, encapsulation, inheritance, dynamic binding, and polymorphism help to achieve an accurate and flexible system that is resistant to corruption and is easy to maintain. Objects, which are entities with a private memory and a public interface, are at the core of object-oriented methodologies. They represent the systems that are found in the real-world, and can be used, if they have been properly designed, as building blocks in various computer systems. The ability to re-use objects greatly reduces the cost of developing new systems. Not only do objects allow the reuse of program modules, but the reuse of entire system designs as well. In addition to reuse, they promote system extensibility and flexibility.
Some drawbacks to the use of object-orientation exist, but can and should be overcome in order to obtain the advantages provided by the methodology. Students should familiarize themselves with object-oriented methodologies in order to place themselves in a better position in the job market upon graduation.

description: We consider supersymmetric extensions of a recently proposed partonic description of a bosonic p-brane which reformulates the Nambu-Goto action as an interacting multi-particle action with Filippov-Lie algebra gauge symmetry. We construct a worldline supersymmetric action by postulating, among others, a p-form fermion. Demanding a local worldline supersymmetry rather than the full worldvolume supersymmetry, we circumvent a known no-go theorem against the construction of a Ramond-Neveu-Schwarz supersymmetric action for a p-brane of p>1. We also derive a spacetime supersymmetric Green-Schwarz extension from the preexisting kappa-symmetric action.

To do so, the app leverages a large textual database yielding some 9,500,000 words and covering the works of 308 Latin authors (from the IV century BCE to the VI century CE) and the entire corpus of Latin epigraphs as recorded in the Corpus Inscriptionum Latinarum.
title: The Fourth Amendment: History and Development of the Reasonable Search
Creators: name: Tilt, Bradley L.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1993

description: The existence of the search and seizure restrictions encoded in the Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution is the result of a two part historical development that took place simultaneously in England and the American colonies. Severe legislative restrictions on the press were largely responsible for the developments in England, while in the colonies it was British tax and trade regulations that spawned the changes. On both sides of the Atlantic, however, the primary catalyst was the government's use of general searches in the enforcement of those laws. It was the continued abuse of general searches despite the public's growing opposition to them that would ultimately prove responsible for the expression of reasonable search and seizure guidelines in the Bill of Rights.

Study of the propagation, in situ signatures, and geoeffectiveness of shear-induced coronal mass ejections in different solar winds

description: Aims: Our goal is to propagate multiple eruptions - obtained through numerical simulations performed in a previous study - to 1 AU and to analyse the effects of different background solar winds on their dynamics and structure at Earth. We also aim to improve the understanding of why some consecutive eruptions do not result in the expected geoeffectiveness, and how a secondary coronal mass ejection (CME) can affect the configuration of the preceding one. Methods: Using the 2.5D magnetohydrodynamics (MHD) package of the code MPI-AMRVAC, we numerically modeled consecutive CMEs inserted in two different solar winds by imposing shearing motions onto the inner boundary. The initial magnetic configuration depicts a triple arcade structure shifted southward, and embedded into a bimodal solar wind. We compared our simulated signatures with those of a multiple CME event in Sept 2009 using data from spacecraft around Mercury and Earth. We computed and analysed the Dst index for all the simulations performed. Results: The observed event fits well at 1 AU with two of our simulations, one with a stealth CME and the other without. This highlights the difficulty of attempting to use in situ observations to distinguish whether or not the second eruption was stealthy, because of the processes the flux ropes undergo during their propagation in the interplanetary space. We simulate the CMEs propagated in two different solar winds, one slow and another faster one. Only in the first case, plasma blobs arise in the trail of eruptions. Interestingly, the Dst computation results in a reduced geoeffectiveness in the case of consecutive CMEs when the flux ropes arrive with a leading positive Bz. When the Bz component is reversed, the geoeffectiveness increases, meaning that the magnetic reconnections with the trailing blobs and eruptions strongly affect the impact of the arriving interplanetary CME.

Creators: name: Whitemarsh, Bryan Donald
Publisher: name: Utah State University

description: All organisms must respond to different environmental stresses. For unicellular organisms, the most important source of stress is starvation or nutrient depletion. These microscopic life forms must respond to a constantly changing food supply in which short periods of nutrient availability are interspersed with extended periods of famine. In addition to complete starvation, these organisms are affected by other chemical changes, such as forced switching from a desirable to a less desirable carbon source, and physical changes, such as heat shock. Many microorganisms respond to such stresses by entering a different phase of their life cycle. For example, the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae responds by forming ascospores (1). Another unicellular organism, the slime mold Dictyostelium discoideum responds to stress by fruiting body formation (2). Although multicellular organisms are relatively less susceptible to drastic changes in nutrient availability, they still must respond to stresses including nutrient deprivation, heat shock, and toxins. Many multicellular organisms, including mammals, respond to stress by altering their lipid metabolism (3, 4).

title: Comparative Analysis of Syntactic Abilities of Hard-of-Hearing and Deaf Children, as Measured by the Screening Portion of the Test of Syntactic Abilities
Creators: name: Misenhimer, Dawn
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1993

description: According to the authors of the Test of Syntactic Abilities (TSA), the most difficult task facing deaf and hard-of-hearing children in our educational system is the acquisition of English. The structure, or syntax, of the English language, is especially challenging for these children. The eventual result is that few deaf and hard-of-hearing students acquire even an adequate knowledge of standard English. This in turn affects all other aspects of education, including the learning of reading, writing and content subjects (Quigley, Steinkamp, Power & Jones, 1978). Most deaf and hard-of-hearing children do not even use English syntax to any great extent until they are five or six years old (McAnally, Rose & Quigley, 1987), beyond the critical period for language acquisition (0-4 years), during which children learn language (spoken or manual) quickly and with relative ease. It is estimated that most 18-year-old deaf students have a mastery over only a few syntactic structures of the English language, and that an estimated 50% are reading at or below a fourth-grade level. Only about 10% of 18-year-old deaf students are reported as having reading skills above the eighth-grade level (McAnally et al., 1987).

description: Simulations of colloidal suspensions consisting of mesoscopic particles and smaller species such as ions or depletants are computationally challenging as different length and time scales are involved. Here, we introduce a machine learning (ML) approach in which the degrees of freedom of the microscopic species are integrated out and the mesoscopic particles interact with effective many-body potentials, which we fit as a function of all colloid coordinates with a set of symmetry functions. We apply this approach to a colloid-polymer mixture. Remarkably, the ML potentials can be assumed to be effectively state-independent and can be used in direct-coexistence simulations. We show that our ML method reduces the computational cost by several orders of magnitude compared to a numerical evaluation and accurately describes the phase behavior and structure, even for state points where the effective potential is largely determined by many-body contributions.

description: This work studies scattering-induced elastic wave attenuation and phase velocity variation in 3D untextured cubic polycrystals with statistically equiaxed grains using the theoretical second-order approximation (SOA) and Born approximation models and the grain-scale finite element (FE) model, pushing the boundary towards strongly scattering materials. The results for materials with Zener anisotropy indices A>1 show a good agreement between the theoretical and FE models in the transition and stochastic regions. In the Rayleigh regime, the agreement is reasonable for common structural materials with 11, a semi-analytical model is proposed by iterating the far-field Born approximation and optimising the iterative coefficient. The proposed model agrees remarkably well with the FE model across all studied materials with greatly differing microstructures; the model validity also extends to the quasi-static velocity limit. For polycrystals with A<1, it is found that the agreement between the SOA and FE results is excellent for all studied materials and the correction of the model is not needed.

description: Dynamical mean field theory and its cluster extensions provide a very useful approach for examining phase transitions in model Hamiltonians, and, in combination with electronic structure theory, constitute powerful methods to treat strongly correlated materials. The key advantage to the technique is that, unlike competing real space methods, the sign problem is well controlled in the Hirsch-Fye (HF) quantum Monte Carlo used as an exact cluster solver. However, an important computational bottleneck remains; the HF method scales as the cube of the inverse temperature, $β$. This often makes simulations at low temperatures extremely challenging. We present here a new method based on determinant quantum Monte Carlo which scales linearly in $β$, and demonstrate that the sign problem is identical to HF.

Quantitative schlieren densitometer
Creators: name: Humphries, Christopher A. M.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: A schlieren densitometer was constructed in which a new technique of beam def1ection. measurement was employed. In conventional systems, the schlieren deflection of a probing light beam is measured by a knife edge technique. In the experiment described here, the knife edge was replaced by a neutral density wedge. This innovation brought several advantages, the main one being the elimination of problems due to diffraction. The beam intensity, attenuated by the wedge, was monitored by a photomultiplier. The output voltage of the photomultiplier was time integrated to give a linear analogue signal for the density profile of a moving object or medium. The device was applied to the measurement of the density change across the shock front of a Mach 9 plane shock wave in argon. The results were in satisfactory agreement with values calculated from shock wave theory.

description: Formal reasoning about hashing-based probabilistic data structures often requires reasoning about random variables where when one variable gets larger (such as the number of elements hashed into one bucket), the others tend to be smaller (like the number of elements hashed into the other buckets). This is an example of negative dependence, a generalization of probabilistic independence that has recently found interesting applications in algorithm design and machine learning. Despite the usefulness of negative dependence for the analyses of probabilistic data structures, existing verification methods cannot establish this property for randomized programs. To fill this gap, we design LINA, a probabilistic separation logic for reasoning about negative dependence. Following recent works on probabilistic separation logic using separating conjunction to reason about the probabilistic independence of random variables, we use separating conjunction to reason about negative dependence. Our assertion logic features two separating conjunctions, one for independence and one for negative dependence. We generalize the logic of bunched implications (BI) to support multiple separating conjunctions, and provide a sound and complete proof system. Notably, the semantics for separating conjunction relies on a non-deterministic, rather than partial, operation for combining resources. By drawing on closure properties for negative dependence, our program logic supports a Frame-like rule for negative dependence and monotone operations. We demonstrate how LINA can verify probabilistic properties of hash-based data structures and balls-into-bins processes.

title: The Use of the Xylose Tolerance Test as an Indicator of Malabsorption in Cryptosporidiosis
Creators: name: Evans, James A.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1996

description: Cryptosporidium parvum, a protozoan parasite infecting epithelial cells lining the intestinal tract of animals and humans, causes fulminate diarrhea and malabsorption of essential nutrients following damage to the cellular brush border. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the use of a pentose sugar (D-xylose) in a standardized tolerance test as an indicator of malabsorption due to cryptosporidiosis in the dexamethasone (DEX)-immunosuppressed adult C57BL/6N mouse model. One group containing 14 experimental mice (in addition to appropriate control groups) was immunosuppressed using daily intraperitoneal injections of DEX (125 μg/mouse). On day 7 postimmunosuppression, mice were inoculated orally with 104 C. parvum oocysts/mouse. Approximately 1 month postinoculation, feces from individual mice were checked for oocyst shedding using an indirect immunofluorescent assay to confirm patent infections. After 24 hours of fasting, infected mice were administered Dxylose (2.5 mg/ g body weight) by gavage. Mice were killed at either 45 or 90 minutes post-D-xylose administration, blood was collected from the chest cavity, and the serum was harvested. Sections of the proximal duodenum and distal ileum of each mouse were histologically prepared for quantitation of C. parvum using brightfield microscopy. Serum was analyzed with a spectrophotometer (520 nm) by employing a calorimetric reaction as a measure of the absorptive capacity of D-xylose in the small intestine of C. parvum-infected mice. Statistical analysis revealed no significant correlation between the number of parasites present and intestinal absorption of D-xylose. However, administration of DEX was positively correlated to D-xylose absorption. These findings indicate that the xylose tolerance test is inappropriate in the adult C57BL/6N mouse model for evaluating malabsorption due to cryptosporidiosis in the presence of

description: Conservation of the phase-space density of photons plus Lorentz invariance requires that the cosmological luminosity distance be larger than the angular diameter distance by a factor of $(1+z)^2$, where $z$ is the redshift. Because this is a fundamental symmetry, this prediction--known sometimes as the "Etherington relation" or the "Tolman test"--is independent of world model, or even the assumptions of homogeneity and isotropy. It depends, however, on Lorentz invariance and transparency. Transparency can be affected by intergalactic dust or interactions between photons and the dark sector. Baryon acoustic feature and type Ia supernovae measures of the expansion history are differently sensitive to the angular diameter and luminosity distances and can therefore be used in conjunction to limit cosmic transparency. At the present day, the comparison only limits the change $Δτ$ in the optical depth from redshift 0.20 to 0.35 at visible wavelengths to $Δτ< 0.13$ at 95% confidence. In a model with a constant comoving number density $n$ of scatterers of constant proper cross-section $σ$, this limit implies $n σ< 2\times10^{-4} h \Mpc^{-1}$. These limits depend weakly on the cosmological world model. Within the next few years, the limits could extend to redshifts $z\approx2.5$ and improve to $n σ<1.1 \times10^{-5} h \Mpc^{-1}$. Cosmic variance will eventually limit the sensitivity of any test using the BAF at the $n σ\sim 4\times10^{-7} h \Mpc^{-1}$ level. Comparison with other measures of the transparency is provided; no other measure in the visible is as free of astrophysical assumptions.

title: Root Colonization by Pseudomonas putida: The Role of Catalase and Superoxide Dismutase Isozymes
Creators: name: Bowles, Tawnya Lynn
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1996

description: The fluorescent soil bacterium Pseudomonas putida is an aggressive root colonizer (1) that offers benefits to the host plant by suppressing soilborne pathogens and enhancing plant growth (12,13). Upon introduction in the field through seed inoculation, certain isolates of P. putida have the potential to act as an effective biological control agent (3). P. putida has also been shown to promote the growth of potatoes, sugarbeets, and radishes (13). Fluorescent pseudomonads are effective in protecting plants against pathogens such as Gaeumannomyces graminis var. tritici, a fungus that causes the root disease of wheat called take-all (13).

Year: 1996

description: Around 1637, Pierre de Fermat made a now-famous mathematical conjecture. However, Fermat's conjecture neither began nor ended with him. Fermat's last theorem, as the conjecture is called, has roots approximately 3600 years old. The proof of the theorem was not realized until 1994, over 350 years after it was proposed by Fermat.
title: Validation of the Rapid Speech Transmission Index (Rasti) in a Classroom Environment
Creators: name: Larsen, Jeffery
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1993

description: Because the acoustics of a room have a substantial impact on speech intelligibility, researchers have tried over the years to develop the most effective way to evaluate the effects of the acoustic environment on speech intelligibility. Both subjective and objective measures of speech intelligibility have been devised. For the purposes of this study, subjective measures are those in which a speech recognition test is given to a group of subjects whose scores provide a direct indication of speech intelligibility at each position in the listening environment {Steeneken & Houtgast, 1980). Objective measures are those that determine the acoustic factors that affect speech intelligibility in a room, and through the use of a formula or calculation scheme, determine the loss of speech intelligibility in a room (Rao, 1992) . Subjective measures are useful in that they have high face validity, but they require trained listeners and speakers. They can become expensive and also can take a long time to do (Rao, 1992). Objective measures are less time consuming and less expensive, but their face validity is low. Because of the ease of using objective measures, researchers have attempted to prove their validity by comparing them with subjective measures (Houtgast, 1981; Houtgast & Steeneken, 1984).

description: Because of the ever increasing number of non- (NEP) and Limited- (LEP) English Proficient persons in the United States, the Speech-Language Pathologist (SLP) working in the public school setting is currently faced with the challenge of developing effective strategies for the assessment and identification of bilingual children with communicative disorders. One of the responsibilities of the SLP is to administer tests to children with suspected communicative disorders. However, it is difficult for a monolingual, English speaking SLP to effectively assess the speech and language of a non- or limited-English speaking child because of the language barrier that is present. In addition, there are few or no instruments available to the SLP for assessing the speech and language of children who are not proficient in English. As a result, the SLP in the public school setting is generally not prepared to meet the responsibilities of administering services to these students (Mattes and Omark, 1984). Until a SLP attains proficiency in a second language, he/she must take the responsibility of finding suitable, trustworthy personnel to assist him/her in the assessment and remediation of NEP and LEP students.

LISA detection of massive black hole binaries: imprint of seed populations and of exterme recoils

description: All the physical processes involved in the formation, merging, and accretion history of massive black holes along the hierarchical build--up of cosmic structures are likely to leave an imprint on the gravitational waves detectable by future space--borne missions, such as LISA. We report here the results of recent studies, carried out by means of dedicated simulations of black hole build--up, aiming at understanding the impact on LISA observations of two ingredients that are crucial in every massive black hole formation scenario, namely: (i) the nature and abundance of the first black hole seeds and (ii) the large gravitational recoils following the merger of highly spinning black holes. We predict LISA detection rates spanning two order of magnitude, in the range 3-300 events per year, depending on the detail of the assumed massive black hole seed model. On the other hand, large recoil velocities do not dramatically compromise the efficiency of LISA observations. The number of detections may drop substantially (by ~60%), in scenarios characterized byabundant light seeds, but if seeds are already massive and/or relatively rare, the detection rate is basically unaffected.

Energy flow and dissipation in heterogeneous ensembles of coupled phase oscillators

description: We present analytical expressions and numerical results for the rates of energy exchange between oscillators and with the environment in a heterogeneous ensemble of globally coupled mechanical phase oscillators. The system is in stationary motion under the combined action of an external harmonic excitation, coupling, and friction. Individual moments of inertia and friction coefficients are different between oscillators. Three dynamical regimes, with different degrees of entrainment with the external excitation, are characterized. In two of these regimes, the rates of energy exchange show nontrivial dependence on the moments of inertia and friction coefficients, suggesting that the transfer of power between different parts of the ensemble can be manipulated by a convenient choice of the individual parameters.

Thermal Chaotic Mixing of Power-Law Fluids in a Mixer with Alternately-Rotating Walls

Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Fluid Dynamics (physics.flu-dyn)

description: We investigate the enhancement of both mixing and heat transfer in a two-rod mixer for highly-viscous non-Newtonian fluids. The mixer is composed of two vertical, circular rods in a cylindrical tank. Chaotic flows are obtained by imposing the temporal modulations of the rotational velocities of the walls. We study the effects of different stirring protocols, which lead to non-chaotic and chaotic flows, on the efficiency of both mixing and heat transfer for three different rheological fluid behaviors: shear-thinning, Newtonian and shear-thickening. For this purpose, we use statistical indicators that characterize the mean value of the fluid temperature and its homogenization. We find that chaotic mixing is suitable for shear-thickening fluids for which we observe a clear enhancement of the thermal mixing (heat extraction and homogenization). This is due to the increase in the apparent fluid viscosity in the vicinity of the rotating walls. This aspect confirms the relevance of chaotic mixing for highly-viscous fluids.
