description: The asymmetric quantum Rabi model (AQRM) exhibits level crossings in the eigenspectrum for the values $ε\in\frac{1}{2}\mathbb{Z}$ of the bias parameter $ε$. Such level crossings are expected to be associated with some hidden symmetry of the model. The origin of this hidden symmetry is established by finding the operators which commute with the AQRM hamiltonian at these special values. The construction is given explicitly for the first several cases and can be applied to other related light-matter interaction models for which similar level crossings have been observed in the presence of a bias term.

Year: 2024

description: Vitiligo is an autoimmune disease involving loss of melanocytes. While several genetic studies have confirmed that genetic factors play an important role, its pathogenesis remains incompletely characterized. In this study, a genome-wide meta-analysis (GWMA) was conducted to search for new susceptibility variants of vitiligo. Tang et al. performed a genome-wide association study (GWAS) for cohort I (1,117 vitiligo cases and 1,701 healthy controls) previously and we conduct a GWAS for cohort II (3,323 vitiligo cases and 7,186 healthy controls) in this study, with the results subjected to a GWMA and linkage disequilibrium (LD) analysis.

The data we upload is the summary statistical data of GWAS and GWMA.

description: The Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative is an effort by nine states to constrain carbon dioxide emissions from the electric power sector using a cap-and-trade program. This paper assesses the importance of long-term electricity contracts under the program. We find that 12.2% of generation will be accounted for by long-term contracts in 2010, affecting select nuclear, hydroelectric, and cogeneration units. The contracts will have a negligible effect on the wholesale marginal cost of electricity and a small effect on retail price. States may want to consider contracts on a case-by-case basis when making decisions about the initial distribution of emission allowances, but they should account for effects on the portfolio of plants owned at the firm level, not the effects on individual facilities. Because of their relatively small effect, it seems unnecessary to allow the existence of long-term contracts to dictate the design of the overall program.

Genome Editing: A Novel Tool for Disease Resistance

Publisher: name: The Science world a Monthly e magazine
Year: 2024

description: The recent advent of genome-editing technologies has enabled a new paradigm in which the sequence of the human genome can be precisely manipulated to achieve a therapeutic effect. This includes the correction of mutations that cause disease, the addition of therapeutic genes to specific sites in the genome, and the removal of deleterious genes or genome sequences. This article presents the mechanisms of different genome-editing strategies and describes each of the common nuclease-based platforms, which includes CRISPR/Cas9 (Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats which are associated with protein 9), TALEN (transcription activator-like effectors nuclease), and ZFN (zinc finger nuclease). These technologies are beginning to be used for new approaches in a variety of areas including research, medicine, agriculture, biotechnology and have the potential to be used in pest control. These new technologies pose challenges for regulators who will find it harder to distinguish between genetic changes in organisms generated by conventional breeding, gene editing, or natural mutation.

description: In this letter we propose a reduction of the $H_0$ tension puzzle by means of a theory of minimally modified gravity which is dubbed VCDM. After confronting the theory with the experiments, we find that the data allow for a low-redshift transition in the expansion history of the universe at either $z\simeq 0.3 $ or $z \simeq 1.8\,$, corresponding to one of the two local minima of the total $χ^2$. From the bestfit values the total fitness parameter is improved by $Δχ^2 \simeq 12$, for the data set considered. We then infer the local Hubble expansion rate today within this theory by means of low redshift Pantheon data. The resulting local Hubble expansion rate today is $H^{\rm{loc}}_0=73.6\pm1.4$. We find the tension is reduced within the VCDM theory.

Non-Gaussian Fluctuations in Biased Resistor Networks: Size Effects versus Universal Behavior

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We study the distribution of the resistance fluctuations of biased resistor networks in nonequilibrium steady states. The stationary conditions arise from the competition between two stochastic and biased processes of breaking and recovery of the elementary resistors. The fluctuations of the network resistance are calculated by Monte Carlo simulations which are performed for different values of the applied current, for networks of different size and shape and by considering different levels of intrinsic disorder. The distribution of the resistance fluctuations generally exhibits relevant deviations from Gaussianity, in particular when the current approaches the threshold of electrical breakdown. For two-dimensional systems we have shown that this non-Gaussianity is in general related to finite size effects, thus it vanishes in the thermodynamic limit, with the remarkable exception of highly disordered networks. For these systems, close to the critical point of the conductor-insulator transition, non-Gaussianity persists in the large size limit and it is well described by the universal Bramwell-Holdsworth-Pinton distribution. In particular, here we analyze the role of the shape of the network on the distribution of the resistance fluctuations. Precisely, we consider quasi-one-dimensional networks elongated along the direction of the applied current or trasversal to it. A significant anisotropy is found for the properties of the distribution. These results apply to conducting thin films or wires with granular structure stressed by high current densities.

description: The rapidity of change has left scant opportunity for investigation of the consequences of biotechnology adoption on long-term ecosystem or economic system functioning. Economic theory suggests that, if the "Biotechnology Revolution" is left to market forces alone,there will be neglected public goods. Theory and limited empirical evidence suggests that there are significant incentives for private firms to discount and neglect certain environmental impacts and to develop products that meet only the needs of those able and willing to pay. Negative distributional impacts on rural societies and economies will not normally enter the private calculus nor will the long-term problems of insect and plant resistance. Thus, there is a strong case for enhanced public roles with respect to the use of transgenic crops. The adoption of the precautionary approach in public policies addressing transgenic crops is one alternative to better reflect public concerns.
Korean immigrant parents' attitudes and practices regarding Korean and English development in preschool-aged children: a comparison of bilingual and English-speaking programs
Creators: name: Koh, Jin Young
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The purpose of the present study was to understand how Korean immigrant parents envision their children's learning of Korean and English during the preschool years, and how they provide language environments and activities in the home to facilitate the learning process. Questionnaires and follow-up interviews were used to gather data from sixty parents who either sent their children to bilingual preschool programs (BP) or who enrolled their children in English-speaking programs (ESP) in the Greater Vancouver area. This study has resulted in a broad range of findings, among which are that most parents attached great importance to and had high expectations for their children's acquisition of both Korean and English. At the same time, parents thought that having their children learn two languages would be not an easy task. Moreover, parents differed in their beliefs as to the appropriate time to balance the competing interest between learning Korean and English during the preschool years. The BP group placed a higher priority on their children's learning of Korean during the preschool years, spoke more Korean at and outside of home, and had more exposure to Korean literacy-related activities and materials in the home than did the ESP group. In the BP group, parents' attitudes to their children's learning of Korean were correlated with the frequency of the children's use of Korean literacy materials at home. The ESP group, on the other hand, placed a higher priority on their children's learning of English, spoke more English in their daily lives, and had more exposure to English literacy activities and materials in the home than the BP group did. The ESP parents' attitudes to their children's learning of English were correlated with the frequency of the children's use of English literacy materials at home. This study suggests that although Korean immigrant parents were positive about their children's development of both Korean and English, considerable work needs to be done for these families to support early bilingual and biliteracy development. Findings also show that parents' attitudes and practices regarding their children's first and second language learning are different in terms of the preschool types the children are attending.

description: The recent experimental measurements on $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=5.02 \,\rm TeV$ have shown a very large abundance of heavy baryon production corresponding to a ratio of $Λ_c/D^0 \sim 0.6$, about one order of magnitude larger than what measured in $e^+e^-$, $ep$ collisions and even in $pp$ collisions at LHC, but at forward rapidity. We apply for the first time to $pp$ collisions a quark coalescence plus fragmentation approach developed for $AA$ collisions, assuming the formation of Hot QCD matter at finite temperature. An approach that has correctly predicted a $Λ_c/D \sim O(1)$ in AA collisions at RHIC energy. We calculate the heavy baryon/meson ratio and the $p_T$ spectra of charmed hadrons with and without strangeness content: $D^{0}$, $D_{s}$, $Λ_{c}^{+}$, $Ξ_c$ and $Ω_c$ in $pp$ collisions at top LHC energies, finding a satisfactory result for the measured $Λ_{c}^{+}/D^0$ and the $Ξ_c/D^0$ without any specific tuning of parameters to $pp$ collisions. At variance with other approaches a coalescence approach predicts also a significant production of $Ω_c$ such that $Ω_c/D^0 \sim O(10^{-1})$ .

description: Cascade of particles injected as Hawking Radiation from Primordial Black Holes (PBH) can potentially change the cosmic recombination history by ionizing and heating the intergalactic medium, which results in altering the anisotropy spectra of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). In this paper, we study the expected sensitivity of several future CMB experiments in constraining the abundance of PBHs distributed in $10^{15}\sim10^{17}$ g mass window according to four mass functions: the monochromatic, log-normal, power-law and critical collapse models. Our result shows that future experiments, such as CMB-S4 and PICO, can improve current {\it{Planck}} bounds by about two orders of magnitudes. All regions in PBH parameter space that are allowed by current CMB data, including monochromatically distributed PBHs with mass heavier than $4 \times 10^{16}$ grams, can be excluded by upcoming missions with high significance.

Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Education -- Research papers (Graduate)

description: The purpose of this research was to examine whether direct vocabulary instruction affects the reading comprehension of third grade students. Study participants were 23 third grade reading students. The study took place over a five week period, during which all students completed one reading assessment under both the treatment and control conditions each week. To accomplish this, the first test of each week was given under the control condition, and the second was given under the treatment condition. In the treatment condition, direct instruction regarding new vocabulary was provided. The teacher used a five step plan to teach students new vocabulary words prior to completing a five item comprehension assessment. In the control condition, the students were given parallel passages to read and assessments which they completed independently without any teacher instruction .The scores earned in the treatment condition were significantly higher than those earned in the control condition. The study provides evidence that vocabulary instruction can have a positive effect on reading comprehension.

description: The theory of the generation and transfer of polarized radiation, mainly developed for interpreting solar spectropolarimetric observations, allows to reconsider, in a more rigorous and elegant way, a physical mechanism that has been suggested some years ago to interpret the high degree of polarization often observed in astronomical masers. This mechanism, for which the name of 'dichroic maser' is proposed, can operate when a low density molecular cloud is illuminated by an anisotropic source of radiation (like for instance a nearby star). Here we investigate completely unsaturated masers and show that selective stimulated emission processes are capable of producing highly polarized maser radiation in a non-magnetic environment. The polarization of the maser radiation is linear and is directed tangentially to a ring equidistant to the central star. We show that the Hanle effect due to the presence of a magnetic field can produce a rotation (from the tangential direction) of the polarization by more that 45 degrees for some selected combinations of the strength, inclination and azimuth of the magnetic field vector. However, these very same conditions produce a drastic inhibition of the maser effect. The rotations of about 90 degrees observed in SiO masers in the evolved stars TX Cam by Kemball & Diamond (1997) and IRC+10011 by Desmurs et al (2000) may then be explainedby a local modification of the anisotropy of the radiation field, being transformed from mainly radial to mainly tangential.

description: Chiral topological semimetals host multifold degenerate band crossing points under the protection of crystalline symmetries. In this paper, we suggest that the recently discovered chiral topological semimetals in space group 198, parts of which are superconducting upon doping, can be new candidates of time reversal invariant topological superconductors. By investigating the Fermi surfaces around the band crossing points that carry nonzero Chern numbers, we clarify how the nontrivial topology of chiral topological semimetals affects their superconducting state and show the existence of topological superconductivity in $s_\pm$-wave pairing with surface Majorana fermions. We further demonstrate that the topological superconductivity is favored by the inter-unit-cell phonon-mediated electron-electron interaction.

description: A unified description of finite nuclei and equation of state of neutron stars present a major challenge as well as opportunities for understandings of nuclear interactions.Inspired by the Lee-Huang-Yang formula of hard-sphere gases, we developed effective nuclear interactions with an additional high-order density dependent term.The original Skyrme force SLy4 is widely used in studies of neutron stars but is not satisfied for global descriptions of finite nuclei. The refitted SLy4${'}$ force can improve descriptions of finite nuclei but slightly reduces the radius of neutron star of 1.4 solar mass.We found that the extended SLy4 force with a higher-order density dependence can properly describe properties of both finite nuclei and GW170817 binary neutron stars, including the mass-radius relation and the tidal deformability. This demonstrated the essential role of high-order density dependence at ultrahigh densities. Our work provides a unified and predictive model for neutron stars, as well as new insights for the future development of effective interactions.

description: This paper examines two questions: (1) what were the most important factors that led to differential rates of adoption of maize technology by farmers in Zimbabwe, Zambia, and Malawi from 1910 to 1995? and (2) what do these experiences suggest about strategic investments in institutions and organizations needed to create a sustainable environment for technology development and adoption in the future? The analysis suggests that productivity increases are facilitated by (a) technology innovations throughout the agricultural system, (b) integration of technological innovations with changes in policies, organizations, human capital and infrastructure related to extension, input and output markets and processing services, and (c) coordination of these innovations across different stages of the agricultural system.

The Effects of Student Perception of Assigned Texts on Performance-Based Assessments
Creators: name: Lafferty, Elizabeth
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Education -- Research papers (Graduate)

description: The purpose of this study was to determine if interest in assigned texts would affect performance on assessments of selected 8th graders enrolled in a standard Language Arts class. The measurement tool that was used was a survey designed by the researcher to measure interest, and curriculum based assessments aligned with the given texts. This study compared survey data with that of the assessment in order to find a relationship. Achievement gains were of little significance with only one novel having a negative correlation, and no relationship found with the other novel. The results imply that interest is not needed in order for students to perform satisfactory. Research in this area should continue since this would be a major factor in organizing curriculum, and student learning and achievement.

description: We review recent work on the Casimir interaction energy between cylindrical shells. We include proposals for future experiments involving cylinders, such us a null experiment using quasi-concentric cylinders, a cylinder in front a conducting plate, and a cylindrical version of the rack and pinion powered by Casimir lateral force. We also present an exact formula for the theoretical evaluation of the vacuum interaction energy between eccentric cylindrical shells, and describe improved analytical and numerical evaluations for the particular case of concentric cylinders.

Subjects: subject: Education -- Research papers (Graduate)

description: The purpose of this study was to determine if the implementation of kinesthetic learning
strategies influenced the engagement of students in an eighth grade English Language Arts class.
This study used a quasi-experimental pre/post-test design to determine how kinesthetic learning
strategies affect student engagement. The “Middle School Survey of Student Engagement,”
developed by the researcher, was used in this study. This instrument was based on the “National
Survey of Student Engagement.” Although three areas of student engagement showed
significant differences, the other five areas of student engagement displayed no differences. The
threats to validity in this study demonstrate that improvements could be made in order to better
determine the actual effect of kinesthetic learning strategies on student engagement. Creating
more student-centered and differentiated learning opportunities is intended to provide students
with more accessibility and ownership in their learning experiences; therefore, future studies and
instructional practices should include the implementation of kinesthetic learning strategies for
the purpose of analyzing and exploring their effect on student engagement.

description: Farm types were assigned using the 1992 Census of Agriculture's Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) definitions. Basically, any farm with 50 percent or more of value of farm sales from one item becomes a farm of that type. Beef farms have 50 percent or more of value of combined sales from calves, feeders, stockers and cull breeding stock. This report is a summary of the financial and production records kept by beef farmers enrolled in the Telfarm/MicroTel record program through Michigan State University Extension, or were accounting clients of AgriSolutions in Michigan, or of Farm Credit Services of Escanaba. Farm records were included if a Finan summary was completed on 1999 data including beginning and ending balance sheets, plus income and expenses. The summary was included if cash discrepancy was less than 10% of gross cash inflow, and if the debt discrepancy was less than $1,000. The averages are reported in the tables below; it should be recognized that considerable variability exist in the data. All farms grew crops in addition to growing or feeding beef. The unweighted mean of acres cropped was 548 acres; the standard deviation of the mean was 338 acres and the median was 492. The unweighted mean of the net farm income for all eight (8) farms was $67,532. The standard deviation of the mean was $51,674 and the median was $54,935 for net farm income. This report has three purposes: 1) to provide statistical information about the financial results on beef farms during 1999; 2) to provide production costs for comparative analysis and forward planning; and 3) to provide information on the trends in resource use, income and costs during the last few years. However, the only other recent beef report is Staff Paper 97-33, Business Analysis Summary for Beef Farms, which contains averages of 8 beef farms for 1996.

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Information Retrieval (cs.IR)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences
subject: I.2.7; I.2.1

description: Purpose: Researchers frequently encounter the following problems when writing scientific articles: (1) Selecting appropriate citations to support the research idea is challenging. (2) The literature review is not conducted extensively, which leads to working on a research problem that others have well addressed. This study focuses on citation recommendation in the related studies section by applying the term function of a citation context, potentially improving the efficiency of writing a literature review. Design/methodology/approach: We present nine term functions with three newly created and six identified from existing literature. Using these term functions as labels, we annotate 531 research papers in three topics to evaluate our proposed recommendation strategy. BM25 and Word2vec with VSM are implemented as the baseline models for the recommendation. Then the term function information is applied to enhance the performance. Findings: The experiments show that the term function-based methods outperform the baseline methods regarding the recall, precision, and F1-score measurement, demonstrating that term functions are useful in identifying valuable citations. Research limitations: The dataset is insufficient due to the complexity of annotating citation functions for paragraphs in the related studies section. More recent deep learning models should be performed to future validate the proposed approach. Practical implications: The citation recommendation strategy can be helpful for valuable citation discovery, semantic scientific retrieval, and automatic literature review generation. Originality/value: The proposed citation function-based citation recommendation can generate intuitive explanations of the results for users, improving the transparency, persuasiveness, and effectiveness of recommender systems.

description: Have perceptions of the U.S. Supreme Court polarized, much like the rest of American politics? Because of the Court's unique role, for many years it remained one of the few institutions respected by both Democrats and Republicans alike. But the Court's dramatic shift to the right in recent years—highlighted by its Dobbs decision in 2022—potentially upends that logic. Using both 8 waves of panel data and 18 nationally representative surveys spanning two decades, we show that while there was little evidence of partisan polarization in earlier years, in 2022 and 2023, such patterns are clear in favorability, trust, legitimacy, and support for reform. Factors that used to protect the Court—like knowledge about it and support for key democratic values—no longer do so. The Court has also become more important to voters, and will likely remain a political flashpoint, with disquieting implications for the Court's place in our polity.

Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Education -- Research papers (Graduate)

description: The purpose of this study was to determine the effect a learning reflection journal would have on second grade students’ independent written seatwork. The measurement tool was a writing rubric that was created by the researcher. This study involved the use of non-independent sample t-test to compare the data collected from the prettest and posttest scores on the writing assignment. The quality of independent writing assignments increased significantly after participants had made use of the learning reflection journal. This study included 22 participants, which included 17 girls and 5 boys. The mean posttest writing score (Mean =24.91, SD= 6.43) was significantly higher than the mean pretest writing score (Mean = 14.82, 5.12) [t(21) = 15.19, p < .001]. This study supports similar findings regarding learning reflection tools.

TWENTY-FOUR YEARS OF FARMLAND PRESERVATION IN MICHIGAN, PA 116
Creators: name: Norgaard, Kurt J.

Publisher: name: Unknown
Year: 1999
Subjects: Land Economics/Use

description: Michigan, similar to other states in the Great Lakes and Midwest area, entered the farmland preservation arena in the early 1970's in response to a growing concern over the conversion of farmland to non-agricultural uses. Reports indicated that farmland acreage in Michigan was being converted to non-agricultural uses at a rate of 300 acres per day and 30,000 lots per year were created between 1940-1970. A Governor's Blue Ribbon Commission in 1970 provided evidence that the loss of farmland in the state was an emerging state policy concern and made several recommendations which ultimately lead to "Farmland and Open Space Preservation Act," Public Act 116, 1974, hereafter referred to as the P.A. 116 Program. The purpose of the Program was to slow the conversion of farmland to non-farm uses while at the same time provide property tax relief to farmland owners because farmers claimed that high property taxes were forcing them to sell land for development. Payments from the State were made in exchange for development rights for an agreed upon period.
