description: The nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond is a promising candidate for realizing the spin qubits concept in quantum information. Even though this defect is known for a long time, its electronic structure and other properties have not yet been explored in detail. We study the properties of the nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond through density functional theory within the local spin density approximation, using supercell calculations. While this theory is strictly applicable for ground state properties, we are able to give an estimate for the energy sequence of the excited states of this defect. We also calculate the hyperfine tensors in the ground state. The results clearly show that: (i) the spin density and the appropriate hyperfine constants are spread along a plane and unevenly distributed around the core of the defect; (ii) the measurable hyperfine constants can be found within about 7 A from the vacancy site. These results have important implications on the decoherence of the electron spin which is crucial in realizing the spin qubits in diamond.

description: Metal halide perovskites APbX3 (A+ = FA+ (formamidinium), MA+ (methylammonium) or Cs+, X- = I-, Br-) are considered as prominent innovative components in nowadays perovskite solar cells. Crystallization of these materials is often complicated by the formation of various phases with the same stoichiometry but structural types deviating from perovskites such as well-known the hexagonal delta FAPbI3 polytype. Such phases are rarely placed in the focus of device engineering due to their unattractive optoelectronic properties while they are, indeed, highly important because they influence on the optoelectronic properties and efficiency of final devices. However, the total number of such phases has not been yet discovered and the complete configurational space of the polytypes and their band structures have not been studied systematically. In this work, we predicted and described all possible hexagonal polytypes of hybrid lead halides with the APbI3 composition using the group theory approach, also we analyzed theoretically the relationship between the configuration of close-packed layers in polytypes and their band gap using DFT calculations. Two main factors affecting the bandgap were found including the ratio of cubic (c) and hexagonal (h) close-packed layers and the thickness of blocks of cubic layers in the structures. We also show that the dependence of the band gap on the ratio of cubic (c) and hexagonal (h) layers in these structures are non-linear. We believe that the presence of such polytypes in the perovskite matrix might be a reason for a decrease in the charge carrier mobility and therefore it would be an obstacle for efficient charge transport causing negative consequences for the efficiency of solar cell devices.

description: In this work we map tunnel conductance curves with nanometric spatial resolution, tracking polaronic quasiparticle excitations when cooling across the insulator-to-metal transition in La0.7Ca0.3MnO3 films. In the insulating phase the spectral signature of polarons, a depletion of conductance at low bias flanked by peaks, is detected all over the scanned surface. These features are still observed at the transition and persist on cooling into the metallic phase. Polaron-binding energy maps reveal that polarons are not confined to regions embedded in a highly-conducting matrix but are present over the whole field of view both above and below the transition temperature.

description: HPC clusters are facing an increasing demand for resources from a wide range of workloads. Moreover, there is an increase in the type of workloads and thus their software- related requirements in HPC systems while isolation among different users remains indispensable. Virtual machines allows both isolation among different users and privileged access to a fully customizable software stack with very low performance overhead. In this work we introduce VINO-Slurm by extending Slurm for running jobs in virtual nodes or else, virtual machines.

Farran, are obtained by the natural almost complex structure arising from the nonlinear connection $HM'$. We prove that the natural almost complex linear connection associated to a $(HM',S,T)$-Cartan connection is a metric linear connection with respect to the Sasaki metric $G$. Finally we give some conditions for $(M', J, G)$ to be a Kähler manifold.

description: The goal is to show that an edge-reinforced random walk on a graph of bounded degree, with reinforcement weight function $W$ taken from a general class of reciprocally summable reinforcement weight functions, traverses a random attracting edge at all large times. The statement of the main theorem is very close to settling a conjecture of Sellke [Technical Report 94-26 (1994) Purdue Univ.]. An important corollary of this main result says that if $W$ is reciprocally summable and nondecreasing, the attracting edge exists on any graph of bounded degree, with probability 1. Another corollary is the main theorem of Limic [Ann. Probab. 31 (2003) 1615--1654], where the class of weights was restricted to reciprocally summable powers. The proof uses martingale and other techniques developed by the authors in separate studies of edge- and vertex-reinforced walks [Ann. Probab. 31 (2003) 1615--1654, Ann. Probab. 32 (2004) 2650--2701] and of nonconvergence properties of stochastic algorithms toward unstable equilibrium points of the associated deterministic dynamics [C. R. Acad. Sci. Sér. I Math. 330 (2000) 125--130].

Modelling spectral line profiles of wind-wind shock emissions from massive binary systems

description: One of the most intriguing spectral features of WR binary stars is the presence of time-dependent line profiles. Long term observations of several systems revealed the periodicity of this variability, synchronized with the orbital movement. Several partially successful models have been proposed to reproduce the observed data. The most promising assume that the origin of the emission is the wind-wind interaction zone. In this scenario, two high velocity and dense winds produce a strong shock layer, responsible for most of the X-rays observed from these systems. As the secondary star moves along its orbital path, the shock region of conical shape, changes its position with relation to the line of sight. As a consequence, the stream measured Doppler shift presents time variations resulting in position changes of the spectral line. In our work, we present an alternative model, introducing turbulence in the shock layer to account for the line broadening and opacity effects for the asymmetry in the line profiles. We showed that the gas turbulence avoids the need of an unnaturally large contact layer thickness to reproduce line broadening. Also, we demonstrated that if the emission from the opposing cone surface is absorbed, the result is a single peaked profile. This result fully satisfies the recent data obtained from massive binary systems, and can help on the determination of both winds and orbital parameters. We successfully applied this model to the Br22 system and determined its orbital parameters.

description: We introduce $\texttt{GWFAST}$, a Fisher information matrix $\texttt{Python}$ code that allows easy and efficient estimation of signal-to-noise ratios and parameter measurement errors for large catalogs of resolved sources observed by networks of gravitational-wave detectors. In particular, $\texttt{GWFAST}$ includes the effects of the Earth's motion during the evolution of the signal, supports parallel computation, and relies on automatic differentiation rather than on finite differences techniques, which allows the computation of derivatives with accuracy close to machine precision. We also release the library $\texttt{WF4Py}$ implementing state-of-the-art gravitational-wave waveforms in $\texttt{Python}$. In this paper we provide a documentation of $\texttt{GWFAST}$ and $\texttt{WF4Py}$ with practical examples and tests of performance and reliability. In a companion paper we present forecasts for the detection capabilities of the second and third generation of ground-based gravitational-wave detectors, obtained with $\texttt{GWFAST}$.

description: We have observed the ultraslow propagation of matched pulses in nondegenerate four-wave mixing in a hot atomic vapor. Probe pulses as short as 70 ns can be delayed by a tunable time of up to 40 ns with little broadening or distortion. During the propagation, a probe pulse is amplified and generates a conjugate pulse which is faster and separates from the probe pulse before getting locked to it at a fixed delay. The precise timing of this process allows us to determine the key coefficients of the susceptibility tensor. The presence of gain in this system makes this system very interesting in the context of all-optical information processing.

description: We analyze the relationship between the mass of a spherical component and the minimum possible thickness of stable stellar disks. This relationship for real galaxies allows the lower limit on the dark halo mass to be estimated (the thinner the stable stellar disk is, the more massive the dark halo must be). In our analysis, we use both theoretical relations and numerical N-body simulations of the dynamical evolution of thin disks in the presence of spherical components with different density profiles and different masses. We conclude that the theoretical relationship between the thickness of disk galaxies and the mass of their spherical components is a lower envelope for the model data points. We recommend using this theoretical relationship to estimate the lower limit for the dark halo mass in galaxies. The estimate obtained turns out to be weak. Even for the thinnest galaxies, the dark halo mass within four exponential disk scale lengths must be more than one stellar disk mass.

Factors influencing Non-Registration of students accepted to BCIT
Creators: name: Nichols, Alan David
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: BCIT provides training in more than 50 technological programs leading directly to career placement. The number of seats offered in each Technology is limited to exactly meet the anticipated employment needs of business, government or industry. For this reason, registration of qualified applicants must be maximized. In the mid 1980’s BCIT experienced difficulty in attracting qualified applicants. A parallel-samples cross-sectional survey questionnaire research design was employed in the fall of 1990 to discover why some fully-qualified first year technology program applicants, who had been accepted, chose not to attend. A control sample of 1394 registering first-year technology students and a target sample of 644 non-registrants was surveyed. The study had four fundamental purposes: to determine if the control and target samples were drawn from the same population of potential students, to determine if and where the attitudes and expectations of the two samples differed, to determine what marketing tools were effective for each sample and to determine what the target (non-registered) group did instead of attending the Institute. SPSS/PC 4.0 was used for hypothesis testing. The results of the study indicated that the demographics of the two samples were essentially the same. However, significant attitudinal differences existed. About half of the applicants were found to be using BCIT as a backup application to a university. Just under 40% indicated that a lack of funds prevented their attendance. Others preferred to attend their local college. Approximately 30% of the applicants indicated they would re-apply within one year. The study confirmed findings of other researchers. The study provides strong support for the notion of a common application to post-secondary educational institutions in British Columbia to optimize the recruitment/admission process.

description: The stellar disks of many spiral galaxies are twice as large as generally thought. We use archival data from the Galaxy Evolution Explorer mission (GALEX) to quantify the statistical properties of young stellar clusters in the outer, extended disks of a sample of eleven nearby galaxies. We find an excess of sources between 1.25 and 2 optical radii, R(25), for five of the galaxies, which statistically implies that at least a quarter of such galaxies have this cluster population (90% confidence level), and no significant statistical excess in the sample as a whole beyond 2 optical radii, even though one galaxy (M 83) individually shows such an excess. Although the excess is typically most pronounced for blue (FUV -NUV < 1, NUV < 25) sources, there is also an excess of sources with redder colors. Although from galaxy to galaxy the number of sources varies significantly, on average, the galaxies with such sources have 75 +- 10 blue sources at radii between 1.25 and 2 R(25). In addition, the radial distribution is consistent with the extended dust emission observed in the far IR and with the properties of H-alpha sources, assuming a constant cluster formation rate over the last few hundred Myrs. All of these results suggest that the phenomenon of low-level star formation well outside the apparent optical edges of disks (R ~ R(25)) is common and long-lasting.

Manganese trends in a sample of thin and thick disk stars. The origin of Mn

description: CONTEXT: Manganese is an iron-peak element and although the nucleosynthesis path that leads to its formation is fairly well understood, it remains unclear which objects, SN II and/or SN Ia, that contribute the majority of Mn to the interstellar medium. It also remains unclear to which extent the supernovae Mn yields depend on the metallicity of the progenitor star or not. AIMS: By using a well studied and well defined sample of 95 dwarf stars we aim at further constraining the formation site(s) of Mn. METHODS: We derive Mn abundances through spectral synthesis of four Mn I lines at 539.4, 549.2, 601.3, and 601.6 nm. Stellar parameters and data for oxygen are taken from Bensby et al. (2003, 2004, 2005). RESULTS: When comparing our Mn abundances with O abundances for the same stars we find that the abundance trends in the stars with kinematics of the thick disk can be explained by metallicity dependent yields from SN II. We go on and combine our data for dwarf stars in the disks with data for dwarf and giant stars in the metal-poor thick disk and halo from the literature. We find that dwarf and giant stars show the same trends, which indicates that neither non-LTE nor evolutionary effects are a major concern for Mn. Furthermore, the [Mn/O] vs [O/H] trend in the halo is flat. CONCLUSIONS: We conclude that the simplest interpretation of our data is that Mn is most likely produced in SN II and that the Mn yields for such SNae must be metallicity dependent. Contribution from SN Ia in the metal-rich thin disk can not, however, be excluded.

description: Quantum dot (QD) assemblies are nanostructured networks made from aggregates of QDs and feature improved charge and energy transfer efficiencies compared to discrete QDs. Using first-principles many-body perturbation theory, we systematically compare the electronic and optical properties of two types of CdS QD assemblies that have been experimentally investigated: QD gels, where individual QDs are covalently connected via di- or poly-sulfide bonds, and QD nanocrystals, where individual QDs are bound via van der Waals interactions. Our work illustrates how the electronic, excitonic, and optical properties evolve when discrete QDs are assembled into 1D, 2D, and 3D gels and nanocrystals, as well as how the one-body and many-body interactions in these systems impact the trends as the dimensionality of the assembly increases. Furthermore, our work reveals the crucial role of the covalent di- or poly-sulfide bonds in the localization of the excitons, which highlights the difference between QD gels and QD nanocrystals.

description: In HPC, low latency communication between remote processes is crucial to application performance. InfiniBand networks can reduce the latency but require special and costly network interface cards, which are loosely coupled with CPU, thus needing to constantly re-pin pages. In this work we leverage the SMMU available in the Zynq Ultrascale+ MPSoC’s in order to perform user-level initiated zero-copy transfers in a cluster of 64-bit ARM-based nodes, achieving a 5x latency improvement over kernel-based solutions.

Naturally these modes cannot be affected by the physical boundary conditions. Presence of negative norm states play the rule of an automatic renormalization device for the theory.

description: We present the X-ray pipeline developed for the purpose of the cluster search in the XMM-LSS survey. It is based on a two-stage procedure via a dedicated handling of the Poisson nature of the signal: (1) source detection on multi-resolution wavelet filtered images; (2) source analysis by means of a maximum likelihood fit to the photon images. The source detection efficiency and characterisation are studied through extensive Monte-Carlo simulations. This led us to define two samples of extended sources: the C1 class that is uncontaminated, and the less restrictive C2 class that allows for 50% contamination. The resulting predicted selection function is presented and the comparison to the current XMM-LSS confirmed cluster sample shows very good agreement. We arrive at average predicted source densities of about 7 C1 and 12 C2 per deg2, which is higher than any available wide field X-ray survey. We finally notice a substantial deviation of the predicted redshift distribution for our samples from the one obtained using the usual assumption of a flux limited sample.

description: Irregular structure in planetary rings is often attributed to the intrinsic instabilities of a homogeneous state undergoing Keplerian shear. Previously these have been analysed with simple hydrodynamic models. We instead employ a kinetic theory, in which we solve the linearised moment equations derived in Shu and Stewart 1985 for a dilute ring. This facilitates an examination of velocity anisotropy and non-Newtonian stress, and their effects on the viscous and viscous/gravitational instabilities thought to occur in Saturn's rings. Because we adopt a dilute gas model, the applicability of our results to the actual dense rings of Saturn are significantly curtailled. Nevertheless this study is a necessary preliminary before an attack on the difficult problem of dense ring dynamics. We find the Shu and Stewart formalism admits analytic stability criteria for the viscous overstability, viscous instability, and thermal instability. These criteria are compared with those of a hydrodynamic model incorporating the effective viscosity and cooling function computed from the kinetic steady state. We find the two agree in the `hydrodynamic limit' (i.e. many collisions per orbit) but disagree when collisions are less frequent, when we expect the viscous stress to be increasingly non-Newtonian and the velocity distribution increasingly anisotropic. In particular, hydrodynamics predicts viscous overstability for a larger portion of parameter space. We also numerically solve the linearised equations of the more accurate Goldreich and Tremaine 1978 kinetic model and discover its linear stability to be qualitatively the same as that of Shu and Stewart's. Thus the simple collision operator adopted in the latter would appear to be an adequate approximation for dilute rings, at least in the linear regime.

description: Higgs boson production in association with two tagging jets will be mediated by electroweak vector boson fusion and by gluon fusion processes at the CERN LHC. The characteristic distributions for the gluon fusion process are analyzed for the $H\to W^+W^-$ signal at $m_H=160$ GeV, with subsequent leptonic decay of the $W$-pair. The dominant backgrounds from top-quark pair production, $WWjj$ production and vector boson fusion processes can be suppressed to a level of $S/B\approx 1/4$, yielding a highly significant gluon fusion signal with 30 fb$^{-1}$. Analysis of the azimuthal angle correlations of the two jets provides for a direct measurement of the CP-nature of the $Htt$ Yukawa coupling which is responsible for the effective $Hgg$ vertex.

description: Qualitative inductive methods are widely used in CSCW and HCI research for their ability to generatively discover deep and contextualized insights, but these inherently manual and human-resource-intensive processes are often infeasible for analyzing large corpora. Researchers have been increasingly interested in ways to apply qualitative methods to "big" data problems, hoping to achieve more generalizable results from larger amounts of data while preserving the depth and richness of qualitative methods. In this paper, we describe a study of qualitative researchers' work practices and their challenges, with an eye towards whether this is an appropriate domain for human-AI collaboration and what successful collaborations might entail. Our findings characterize participants' diverse methodological practices and nuanced collaboration dynamics, and identify areas where they might benefit from AI-based tools. While participants highlight the messiness and uncertainty of qualitative inductive analysis, they still want full agency over the process and believe that AI should not interfere. Our study provides a deep investigation of task delegability in human-AI collaboration in the context of qualitative analysis, and offers directions for the design of AI assistance that honor serendipity, human agency, and ambiguity.

Magneto shot noise in noncollinear diffusive spin-valves

description: We develop a semiclassical Boltzmann-Langevin theory of the spin polarized shot noise in a diffusive normal metal spin-valve connected by tunnel contacts to ferromagnetic reservoirs with noncollinear magnetizations. We obtain basic equations for correlations of the fluctuating spin-charge distribution and current density matrices by taking into account the spin-flip processes and precession of the spin accumulation vector in the normal metal. Applying the developed theory to a two terminal FNF structure, we find that for a small spin-flip strength and a substantial polarization of the terminals the shot noise has a nonmonotonic variation with the angle between magnetization vectors. While the shot noise is almost unchanged from the normal structure value for parallel configuration and increases well above the normal value for antiparallel configuration, it suppresses substantially at an intermediate angle depending on the ratio of the conductances of the N metal and the tunnel contacts. We also demonstrated pronounced effects of the polarization and the spin-flip scattering on the shot noise which reveals the interplay between relaxation and precession of the spin accumulation vector in the N metal.

The European communities and African, Caribbean and Pacific (ACP) countries : political, economic and legal effects of the single European act 1986 on post-1992 economic relations
Creators: name: Omonuwa, Adesuwa Nore
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: This thesis is an attempt to examine in full the likely impact of the SEA 1986 on the economic relationship between the EC and the ACP. It begins with a historical introduction to their economic relationship and an analysis of the various Yaounde and Lome Conventions that were signed between the two blocs. An attempt is then made to look at the likely impact of the SEA, with a fully-implemented Single European Market (SEM) after 1992, on their present economic relations from a legal as well as an economic perspective. In particular, the likely effects of the GATT negotiations at the Uruguay Round will be examined. Other questions concerning the monetary arrangements between France and her 13 excolonies in Africa under the CPA Franc Zone arrangement, as well as the enduring problem of huge external indebtedness of the ACPs to the EC and other developed countries, will be examined and suggestions will be made towards achieving lasting solutions. Chapter III deals mainly with the trade negotiations leading to the various Conventions that were signed between the two blocs. These will be examined critically with a view to suggesting improvements to the quality and style of negotiating future Conventions so that more satisfying results can be achieved from the point of view of both the ACPs and the EC. Chapter IV examines the nature of transfer of technology between the two blocs. The relevant provisions of the Lome Conventions will be looked at and attempts will be made to evaluate their preparedness or adequacy for tackling specific problems which the ACPs face when trying to transfer technology from the EC to their respective countries. Efforts of the UN Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD) and other international bodies will also be looked studied and critiqued. Finally, suggestions will be made towards the better improvement of technology transfer agreements so that the ACPs can begin to attain their long-desired technological advancement and self-sufficiency. The effect of the final unification of European Markets under the SEM after 1992 will also be examined in this context. In Chapter V, basically, further suggestions are advanced and the social and political problems of most ACPs countries are examined. African countries are used as a case-study for this purpose but Caribbean countries are also looked at particularly in their attempts at achieving economic integration. These are evaluated and reasons adduced for their partial success or failure. Points made in preceding chapters are summarized in the hope that an overall picture of the EC-ACP economic relationship (especially on the eve of a completely unified SEM) will emerge and that the suggestions advanced towards tackling the challenges that arise will be fully appreciated.

description: In view of the current discussion on the subject, an effort is made to show very accurately both analytically and numerically how the Drude dispersion model gives consistent results for the Casimir free energy at low temperatures. Specifically, for the free energy near T=0 we find the leading term to be proportional to T^2 and the next-to-leading term proportional to T^{5/2}. These terms give rise to zero Casimir entropy as T approaches zero, and is thus in accordance with Nernst's theorem.

description: Bounded rationality includes potential cognitive deficits that limit human rational behaviour. In this paper, we allow for estimation errors of their utility and consider bounded rationality in queueing models with retrials. Upon arrival, customers decide whether to join the system based on their perceived utility, and their choice behaviour is characterised by a logit choice model. For a revenue-seeking server and a social planner, we investigate corresponding optimal pricing strategies. We find that the revenue-optimal price is no longer socially efficient in general but depends on the retrial rate. There exists a threshold such that the socially optimal price is greater than the revenue-optimal one when the retrial rate is below this threshold; otherwise, the revenue-optimal price is greater. A larger bounded rationality widens the gap between social welfare under the revenue- and socially optimal prices. Furthermore, the server’s revenue may increase or first decrease and then increase with respect to customers’ rationality levels, and the server may find it beneficial to reveal waiting time information when customers’ rationality is high. Finally, failing to account for customers’ bounded rationality can lead a significant revenue loss for the server and the proportion of such a revenue loss is close to 1 as customers become fully boundedly rational.

description: We present a method of contraction that can be applied to re-construct the recent extended non-relativistic and ultra-relativistic algebras as well as corresponding action principles. The methodology involves the use of multiple copies of Poincaré algebra. Consequently, the contraction defines non-relativistic or ultra-relativistic limits of multimetric theories of gravity. In particular, we show that the non-relativistic scaling limit of bi-metric gravity corresponds to the recent formulation of an action principle for Newtonian gravity with a constant background mass density.
