description: A previously derived semi-microscopic analysis based on the Double Folding Model, for alpha-particle elastic scattering on A~100 nuclei at energies below 32 MeV, is extended to medium mass A ~ 50-120 nuclei and energies from ~13 to 50 MeV. The energy-dependent phenomenological imaginary part for this semi-microscopic optical model potential was obtained including the dispersive correction to the microscopic real potential, and used within a concurrent phenomenological analysis of the same data basis. A regional parameter set for low-energy alpha-particles entirely based on elastic-scattering data analysis was also obtained for nuclei within the above-mentioned mass and energy ranges. Then, an ultimate assessment of (alpha,gamma), (alpha,n) and (alpha,p) reaction cross sections concerned target nuclei from 45Sc to 118Sn and incident energies below ~12 MeV. The former diffuseness of the real part of optical potential as well as the surface imaginary-potential depth have been found responsible for the actual difficulties in the description of these data, and modified in order to obtain an optical potential which describe equally well both the low energy elastic-scattering and induced-reaction data of alpha-particles.

description: Lithium abundances for red giants in the GALAH DR3 survey are studied. The rare examples of Li-enriched stars with abundances A(Li) $\geq 1.5$ are confirmed to be He-core burning stars belonging to or evolved from the red clump with similar masses and metallicity: $M\simeq 1.1\pm0.2{\rm M_\odot}$ and [Fe/H] $\simeq-0.3\pm0.3$. Li enrichment over the Li abundance present in a star's predecessor at the tip of the red giant branch likely occurs in all these red clump stars. Examination of the elemental abundances (C to Eu) in the GALAH catalogue shows no anomalous abundances in red clump giants and, in particular, no dependence on the Li abundance, which ranges over at least five dex. Lithium synthesis is attributed to the He-core flash occurring in stars at the tip of the red giant branch. Models from the Modules for Experiments in Stellar Astrophysics (MESA) match the observed evolution of these stars along the red giant branch and to the red clump but only at the low effective temperature end of the observed spread of red clump giants. Run of Li abundance on the red giant branch is fairly well reproduced by MESA models. A speculation is presented that the series of He-core flashes not only leads to $^7$Li synthesis from a star's internal reservoir of $^3$He but also may lead to internal restructuring leading to the observed effective temperature spread of red clump stars at about a constant luminosity. Giants exhibiting marked Li enrichments are not found at other evolutionary phases and, in particular, not directly associated with the luminosity bump on the red giant branch for which the Li abundance increase does not exceed 0.3 dex.

Fluidized bed claus reactor studies
Creators: name: Bonsu, Alexander Karikari
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Fluidized bed reactor studies were performed on the Claus reaction, ie. 2H₂S + S0₂<->3/n S[sub=n]n + 2H₂0. The basic objective was to determine whether the performance of the Claus process could be improved by replacing conventional fixed bed reactors with fluidized bed reactors. A computational procedure was developed which, unlike previous methods, does not require the user to specify the initial values for the iterative solution of the equilibrium equations. It is therefore possible to achieve, consistently, significant reductions in computer time and cost. The computer programme was used to simulate various idealized Claus plants. The results of the equilibrium calculations indicated that, for feed gases consisting of pure H₂S, sulphur conversions in excess of 99% are attainable by using a Claus furnace and two fluidized bed reactors in series. To substantiate the theoretical predictions, experimental studies were performed using a single fluidized bed reactor (0.1 m ID). The effects of temperature (150 - 300°C), flow rates (15 - 30 1/min), feed composition (0.06<H₂S<18%, 0.03<S0₂<9%, 73<N₂<99.91%) and bed height (0.12, 0.25 m) on the sulphur conversion were examined. The experimental results showed the same general trends as the theoretical predictions. However, the measured sulphur conversions exceed the theoretical values by up to 8%. Reasons for these discrepancies are discussed. Based on the theoretical and experimental studies, fluidized bed reactors appear to be technically superior to the conventional fixed bed devices. However, a proper commercial evaluation has to await longer term studies with larger fluidized beds.

description: Recently increased accessibility of large-scale digital records enables one to monitor human activities such as the interevent time distributions between two consecutive visits to a web portal by a single user, two consecutive emails sent out by a user, two consecutive library loans made by a single individual, etc. Interestingly, those distributions exhibit a universal behavior, $D(τ)\sim τ^{-δ}$, where $τ$ is the interevent time, and $δ\simeq 1$ or 3/2. The universal behaviors have been modeled via the waiting-time distribution of a task in the queue operating based on priority; the waiting time follows a power law distribution $P_{\rm w}(τ)\sim τ^{-α}$ with either $α=1$ or 3/2 depending on the detail of queuing dynamics. In these models, the number of incoming tasks in a unit time interval has been assumed to follow a Poisson-type distribution. For an email system, however, the number of emails delivered to a mail box in a unit time we measured follows a powerlaw distribution with general exponent $γ$. For this case, we obtain analytically the exponent $α$, which is not necessarily 1 or 3/2 and takes nonuniversal values depending on $γ$. We develop the generating function formalism to obtain the exponent $α$, which is distinct from the continuous time approximation used in the previous studies.

Spouted bed process for suplhur-coating fertilizers
Creators: name: Weiss, Phillippe J.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: The work undertaken was for the purpose of developing relationships between key variables in sulphur coating of urea to permit design of a semi-commercial scale plant. In order to generate study data, it was necessary to completely redesign and rebuild the existing spouted bed coating facilities owing to deficiencies encountered by previous researchers. The spouted bed (usually granulated urea) was contained in a cylindrical column, 0.154 m ID x 0.91 m high, with a conical bottom. Molten sulphur was sprayed through a specially designed nozzle into the bottom of the bed concurrently with the spouting air. The air could be preheated and special precautions were taken to remove particulate matter from the off-gas leaving the bed. The pilot plant was only capable of operating in the batch-wise mode. The product quality was expressed in terms of the 7-day dissolution of a sample immersed in water under conditions specified by the Tennessee Valley Authority. The dependence of the dissolution rate on the following operating parameters was examined: bed temperature (58-85°C), sulphur temperature (157-159°C), sulphur flow rate (34-260 g/min), atomizing air flow rate (0.402-0.785 m³/hr), bed depth (0.28-0.47 m). The bed temperature had the greatest effect on product quality. The quality increases (i.e. the 7-day dissolution rate decreases) up to a bed temperature of approximately 80°C and then decreases again. Similarly, the product quality improves with sulphur injection rate provided all other operating variables are kept constant. These measurements could be explained in terms of the transition of sulphur from the rhombic to the monoclinic form and also the droplet size which strongly affects the cooling rates of the sulphur film and hence the transition rates. Electron micrographs are presented to support these explanations. A technical and preliminary economic analysis was performed for two semi-commercial coating facilities with production capacities of 0.78 and 1.26 t/day. Both processes were assumed to operate in the batch-wise mode. The production costs per ton of sulphur-coated urea were estimated to be $523.00 and $448.00 for the two plants. However, relatively minor process modifications would enable continuous operation and lead to greatly increased plant capacities as well as reduced operating costs.

Towards real-world continual learning for human activity recognition

description: Sensor-based human activity recognition (HAR) is essential for applications in health monitoring, smart homes, and manufacturing. However, the long-term deployment of HAR systems presents a significant challenge: how to automatically evolve a HAR model to adapt to changes in the environment or activity patterns. This thesis addresses this issue by introducing an online continual learning (OCL) scenario for HAR, where sensor data streams contain unlabeled samples from both known and new activities. We propose OCL-HAR, a technique that performs real-time predictions on streaming sensor data while simultaneously discovering new activities. Empirical evaluations on four HAR datasets demonstrate that the OCL scenario is challenging for state-of-the-art continual learning (CL) techniques. In contrast, OCL-HAR consistently outperforms these techniques by up to 17% and 23% in micro and macro F1 scores, respectively. Additionally, on-device CL is crucial for deploying applications on battery-powered devices, balancing privacy needs and adaptability. However, existing CL techniques can be cost-prohibitive for such devices, requiring quantised operations with reduced precision for practical deployment. Current fully quantized training (FQT) solutions fail to converge in low-precision CL. To address this, we propose hadamard domain quantized training (HDQT), which utilises the Hadamard transform to enable 4-bit FQT with integer operands. HDQT facilitates low-precision, on-device training where other FQT solutions fail. HDQT achieves better gradient alignment with unquantised baselines in early feature detection layers, leading to consistently improved learning performance, as reflected in loss landscapes trajectories. This research highlights the potential of OCL-HAR and HDQT for efficient, real-time, and low-power CL in practical HAR applications.

description: The study looked at the effect of temperature on the stability of serum antibodies handled at various temperatures and storage conditions. In the study Brucella antibody was taken as a model and the serum agglutination test was used to determine the antibody level. The Brucella serum antibody was raised from four New Zealand white rabbits injected with killed Brucella bacteria suspension. The antigen for the test was standardized against the international standard anti-Brucella abortus serum. By using the standardized antigen and a reference serum of known antibody content (the 2nd Weybridge working standard serum), it was possible to determine the antibody content of other sera in terms of international units. For Brucella antibodies raised in this way and using the serum agglutination test, a significant deterioration of antibody occurred on sera kept at room temperature and sera subjected to thawing and freezing. The drop in titre, for sera stored at +L|°C and -20°C, was non-significant for the ten weeks duration of the experiment. The significance of these findings is discussed in relation to the problem of collecting, delivering and storing serum for epidemiological investigations under field conditions in tropical developing countries. Statistical analysis was necessary for interpretation of the data.

description: Surra is an important disease of domestic animals in Africa, Asia and Latin America and is caused by infection with Trypanosoma evansi. At present chemotherapy and chemoprophylaxis are the only practical methods available for disease control but their effectiveness is being eroded by the emergence of drug resistant stocks of T. evansi. Of the drugs available for the treatment of T. evansi infection, Suramin has received most use due to its availability and its low toxicity to camels - the host species most at risk from T. evansi infection, consequently an increasing number of drug resistant stocks of T. evansi are being reported. In this work four cloned stocks of T. evansi originally isolated from camels in the Kassala area of the Sudan, were tested for their suramin sensitivity. A known suramin sensitive stock of T. evansi isolated from West Africa was selected as a reference stock which would act as a base for comparison of the suramin / sensitivity of the four Sudanese stocks. Three of the Sudanese stocks of T. evansi were found to be as sensitive to suramin as the reference stock with a minimum curative dose of Ipng/kg. The remaining Sudanese stock was, however, resistant to the curative activity of suramin up to 15>0mg/kg - the maximum tolerated dose of the strain of mice used. The results from this study on a limited number of stocks of T. evansi indicates the existence of suramin resistant stocks of T. evansi in this area of the Sudan and that the effectiveness of this drug for the control of T. evansi infections may be limited.

description: Abstract

 

Hair follicle regeneration is vital to treat those suffering from alopecia. To accomplish this, various markers can be used to determine the causes of alopecia and subsequent treatment methods—these range from diagnostic, prognostic, and molecular markers to forms of histopathological examination. Through the insight these methods provide, treatment for hair regrowth can be provided. A key form of treatment is through stem cell therapy. Multiple types of stem cells can be used to promote hair growth through various methods. In tandem with the markers, as mentioned earlier, several clinical trials and case reports have shown successful hair regrowth rates. Though some challenges still exist in the realm of compatibility as well as widespread implementation, further research can push these treatment methods to become an adequate answer to alopecia.

description: Part of a collection of correspondence from Kathleen Raine to Robin Skelton. Skelton was a British poet, academic, anthologist, and practicing Wiccan. He taught at Manchester University before emigrating to Canada in 1963, where he taught creative writing at the University of Victoria and started the literary magazine The Malahat Review. Also included are some letters to Skelton’s wife Sylvia, and his daughters. Spanning close to forty-five years, the correspondence discusses poetry, writing, and philosophy; particularly Platonism and Neoplatonism. Raine often refers to the writings of William Blake and W. B. Yeats. Many letters also mention contemporary literary figures at the time including: Herbert Read, Peter Russell, Liam Miller, and Thurairajah Tambimuttu. In this letter, Raine provides a citation and advice on an article of Skelton's. She also mentions Herbert Read and his opinions on the Modern movement.
Idealized glass transitions under pressure: dynamics versus thermodynamics

description: The interplay of slow dynamics and thermodynamic features of dense liquids is studied by examinining how the glass transition changes depending on the presence or absence of Lennard-Jones-like attractions. Quite different thermodynamic behavior leaves the dynamics unchanged, with important consequences for high-pressure experiments on glassy liquids. Numerical results are obtained within mode-coupling theory (MCT), but the qualitative features are argued to hold more generally. A simple square-well model can be used to explain generic features found in experiment.

Effects of correlation between merging steps on the global halo formation

description: The excursion set theory of halo formation is modified by adopting the fractional Brownian motion, to account for possible correlation between merging steps. We worked out analytically the conditional mass function, halo merging rate and formation time distribution in the spherical collapse model. We also developed an approximation for the ellipsoidal collapse model and applied it to the calculation of the conditional mass function and the halo formation time distribution. For models in which the steps are positively correlated, the halo merger rate is enhanced when the accreted mass is less than $\sim 25M^*$, while for the negatively correlated case this rate is reduced. Compared with the standard model in which the steps are uncorrelated, the models with positively correlated steps produce more aged population in small mass halos and more younger population in large mass halos, while for the models with negatively correlated steps the opposite is true. An examination of simulation results shows that a weakly positive correlation between successive merging steps appears to fit best. We have also found a systematic effect in the measured mass function due to the finite volume of simulations. In future work, this will be included in the halo model to accurately predict the three point correlation function estimated from simulations.

description: The scientific community is increasingly using computational notebooks for managing and sharing their workflows and analyses, often in cloud-based computing clusters. Popular notebook tools include Jupyter and R Markdown, among other resources, and tools that integrate and execute these together, such as Binder. These environments allow for all project work to be combined into a single synthesis, including the data analysis and manipulation leading to the final results, the linked software involved in that analysis, and the narratives that in effect form the methodology, protocols, and results of a study. At AGU, we recognize the need to do more to support computational notebooks. Working with our community, we have developed a set of recommendations to guide publishers in integrating notebooks as scholarly objects into the publication workflow, from preparation through submission and publication to consumption by the reader. We anticipate this guidance will advance notebooks further in our publications. In this town hall, we will walk through how we are elevating notebooks in the scholarly ecosystem.

description: (ABRIDGED) We have performed the first detailed spectral analysis of red giant members of the relatively high-metallicity globular cluster (GC) Tononzintla~2 (Ton~2) using high-resolution near-infrared spectra collected with the Apache Point Observatory Galactic Evolution Experiment II survey (APOGEE-2), obtained as part of the bulge Cluster APOgee Survey. We investigate chemical abundances for a variety of species including the light-, odd-Z, $α$-, Fe-peak, and neutron-capture elements from high S/N spectra of seven giant members. The derived mean cluster metallicity is [Fe/H]$=-0.70\pm0.05$, with no evidence for an intrinsic metallicity spread. Ton~2 exhibits a typical $α$-enrichment that follows the trend for high-metallicity Galactic GCs, similar to that seen in 47~Tucanae and NGC~6380. We find a significant nitrogen spread ($>0.87$ dex), and a large fraction of nitrogen-enriched stars that populate the cluster. Given the relatively high-metallicity of Ton~2, these nitrogen-enriched stars are well above the typical Galactic levels, indicating the prevalence of the multiple-population phenomenon in this cluster which also contains several stars with typical low, first-generation N abundances. We also identify the presence of [Ce/Fe] abundance spread in Ton~2, which is correlated with the nitrogen enhancement, indicating that the \textit{s}-process enrichment in this cluster has been produced likely by relatively low-mass Asymptotic Giant Branch stars. Furthermore, we find a mean radial velocity of the cluster, $-178.6\pm0.86$ km s$^{-1}$ with a small velocity dispersion, 2.99$\pm$0.61 km s$^{-1}$, which is typical of a GC. We also find a prograde bulge-like orbit for Ton~2 that appears to be radial and highly eccentric.

Synthesis of organometallic tantalum indenyl and thorium guanidinate complexes

Publisher: name: University of Iowa
Year: 2026
Subjects: subject: Organic Chemistry
subject: FOS: Chemical sciences

description: Metal complexes, particularly those in unique coordination environments, have been known to display a high degree of reactivity, often with small molecules of energy relevance. In an interest to expand that reactivity, three research projects were undertaken: the synthesis of the first permethylindenyl complex of the Group 5 metals, -heptamethylindenyltantalum tetrachloride (Ind*TaCl4), and its spectroscopic, electrochemical, and reduction chemistry to compare with known tantalum-pentamethylcyclopentadienyl complexes; the use of potentially dinucleating ligands: 3,4,6,7,8-hexahydro-2H-pyrimido[1,2-a]pyrimidinate (hpp), its tetramethylated analogue (hpp*), and 2,3,5,6-tetrahydro-1H-imidazo[1,2-a]imidazolate (tbo-) in reactions with thorium(IV) and the attempted synthesis of a highly-novel dinucleating ligand featuring two fused six-membered rings in a conjoined di-N-heterocyclic dicarbene, a neutral cousin to bicyclic guanidinate ligands.
description: Chapter 1 introduces the reactivity of metal complexes with small molecules relevant to environmental sustainability and energy production. Chapter 2 is a review of transition metal compounds featuring homometallic bonding and their reactivity, and π-bound organometallics of niobium and tantalum from 2005 to August 2020. Chapter 3 begins the original research conducted by the author, namely with the synthesis and study of the first permethylindenyl complex of the Group 5 metals, the blue, four-legged piano stool Ind*TaCl4. Its synthesis, spectroscopy, electrochemistry, and solid-state structure are described. Its surprisingly substantial max red-shift by UV-vis spectroscopy, when compared to that of luminescent yellow Cp*TaCl4, is explained by time-dependent DFT. TD-DFT calculations predict very-close values of the max for both compounds and explains this red-shift in terms of a lowering of the HOMO-LUMO gap for Ind*TaCl4 compared to Cp*TaCl4. The reduction products and their reactivity are then probed briefly. Chapter 4 details the synthesis of four new thorium guanidinate molecules, two molecular and mononuclear [Th(hpp*)Br3(THF)2 and Th(hpp*)4], and two mononuclear salts [(hpp*(SiMe3)2]2[ThBr6] and [tbo(SiMe3)2]2[ThBr6], and their structural characterizations. Comparisons to analogous uranium chemistry are made. Chapter 5 gives an overview of the various routes attempted to synthesize a di-NHC ligand, theoretically a good candidate for the dinucleation of two zirconium atoms and their potential bonding. While numerous and varied routes were investigated, the compound remains elusive, as the syntheses become unviable, or led to unanticipated products. Chapter 6 provides a conclusion as well as future outlook for the research discussed within this thesis.
