title: Space Weathering on Mercury: Laboratory Studies and Modelling
Creators: name: Bentley, Mark Stephen
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2005

description: Mercury is one of the most mysterious objects in the Solar System. To date, Mercury has been visited only by the Mariner 10 spacecraft, which imaged less than half of the surface. The inner planet is now the target of two missions: NASA’s MESSENGER and the European Space Agency’s BepiColombo. One of the key measurement goals of both missions is global mapping of the surface composition. However, it is known from lunar research that regolith exposed to the space environment evolves in a way that obscures the mineralogical information otherwise derived from reflectance spectroscopy. This evolution process (space weathering), is the result of micrometeorite bombardment and solar wind sputtering, during which ferrous iron in lunar minerals is reduced to metallic iron. Such processes are also expected to operate on other airless bodies, including Mercury.

 This thesis focuses on the use of laboratory simulations of space weathering, with particular emphasis on Mercury. A pulsed laser facility was established, capable of simulating impacts into regolith analogues at varying temperatures. A variety of analytical techniques were then evaluated to quantify the amount of metallic iron produced and its size distribution; space weathering is critically dependent on both of these parameters. Nearly all of the optical and magnetic properties observed in lunar space weathering were also observed in laboratory analyses.

 Of the techniques used, measurements of magnetic susceptibility proved extremely useful. These were rapid and non-destructive measurements, and were diagnostic of the ferromagnetic iron produced during weathering. In addition, multi-frequency or temperature-dependent measurements could readily detect the very fine superparamagnetic particles that modified the reflectance spectra.

 Having demonstrated the importance of these measurements, the possibility of including a magnetic susceptibility sensor on future planetary landers was investigated; this would provide useful data constraining mineralogy and regolith maturity for very low mass and power resources.

description: Using a scanning tunnel microscope or mechanically controlled break junctions, atomic contacts of Au, Pt and Ir are pulled to form chains of atoms. We have recorded traces of conductance during the pulling process and averaged these for a large amount of contacts. An oscillatory evolution of conductance is observed during the formation of the monoatomic chain suggesting a dependence on even or odd numbers of atoms forming the chain. This behaviour is not only present in the monovalent metal Au, as it has been previously predicted, but is also found in the other metals which form chains suggesting it to be a universal feature of atomic wires.

description: Land is increasingly becoming a source of conflicts in Nigeria and Africa at large where land access had traditionally been characterised as relatively unrestricted. This paper examined conflicts over farmland and its socio economic effects on the rural residents of southwestern Nigeria. Multi-stage sampling technique was used to select 160 respondents for the study. Data were collected through a structured questionnaire and analysed using descriptive statistics. Findings revealed that the major causes of conflict over farmland in the area were failure to respect boundary (x 1.66± 0.58), contesting for the inheritance of land boundary (x 1.65±0.65) and abandonment of the previously accepted rules of access to and use of land (x 1.09± 0.63). Farmland conflicts terminates the social interaction and peaceful co-existence of people (x 1.65±0.48), causing mistrust among members (x 1.61±0.49), destruction of goods and property (x 1.57± 0.50) and loss of life (x 1.55±0.57). It was concluded based on the findings that conflict over farmland had negative effects on the socio-economic activities of the rural residents. Consequently, the study recommends that individual and community farm boundaries must be respected.There must be an effective system of land administration of management to reduce frequent challenges of land ownership. Inheritors should be loyal to the agreement made with their progenitors on the use of land and public education/enlightenment programmes must be strengthening to reduce the adverse effect of conflicts over farmland.
Problematic substance use among nurses : a knowledge translation campaign
Creators: name: Stadnek, Margaret Ann
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2018

description: Purpose. The focus of this Scholarly Practice Advancement Research Project was to examine the literature related to problematic substance use amongst nurses. Using the findings of the literature review a knowledge translation campaign was developed to educate both undergrad nurses and practicing nurses on problematic substance use. Background. Problematic substance use amongst nurses has been known to exist in nursing for over a century. Throughout this time there have been many strategies employed to combat this complex devastating affliction. The rates of problematic substance use in nursing ranges from 8%-20%. Many nurses are unaware that problematic substance is a serious concern in the workplace, or of the signs and symptoms of this complex illness. Method. The theories of complexity and sensemaking were used to direct the literature review. Through this process two themes were identified. 1) The need of early and ongoing education regarding problematic substance use and 2) the situational circumstances of the occupational environment for professional nurses in facilitating problematic substance use. Two knowledge translation campaigns were developed to create awareness and to decrease the stigma related to problematic substance use in nursing. Conclusion. The cause of problematic substance use can range from personal to occupational triggers, making problematic substance use amongst nurses difficult to identify and treat. The knowledge translation campaigns will advance nursing by educating nurses about the signs and symptoms of problematic substance use allowing for recognition in the practice environment.

description: It is evident that rural women, due to their lower socioeconomic status and the reduced presence of standard healthcare facilities for pregnancy and childbirth, are at higher risk of adverse pregnancy outcomes than their urban counterparts. This study examined the determinants of pregnancy outcomes among rural women in Nigeria. Quantitative secondary data were obtained from the women’s dataset of the 2013 NDHS with 1,096 eligible respondents. Data were analyzed at univariate, bivariate and multivariate levels with frequencies, chi square test and binary logistic regression respectively. At the bivariate level of analysis, age, marital status and number of ANC visits were significantly related to pregnancy termination (p<0.05), while educational status, religion, the region of residence, wealth status, maternal parity and the place of delivery had no significant relationship with pregnancy termination (p>0.05). Also, education, the region of residence, wealth status, the number of ANC visits, and the place of delivery had a significant relationship with birth weight (p<0.05), while age, marital status, religion, and maternal parity had no relationship with birth weight (p>0.05). At the multivariate level, it was discovered that maternal age, wealth status, the region of residence, and antenatal care use were significant predictors of pregnancy termination (p<0.05) while maternal age, region of residence, wealth status, antenatal care use and place of delivery predicted birth weight (p<0.05). It is recommended that efforts be made to improve rural women’s socio-economic status, as well as further encourage the use of antenatal services and skilled attendance at birth to ensure positive birth outcomes and reduction in maternal and child mortality.

description: Transhumance is the seasonal movement of pastoralists and their livestock in search of water and feed and there had been a regular occurrence of conflicts between farmers and pastoralists in the country. This research investigates the effect of transhumance pastoralists on farming activities among crop farmers in Oke–Ogun area of Oyo State. Two Local government Areas were purposively selected from the study area due to prevalence and consistent report of pastoralists’ invasion in the area. A total of 50 crop farmers were purposively selected from each local government area to give a total of 100 respondents. Data analysis was carried out using descriptive (frequency counts and percentages) and inferential statistics (Chi-Square). The findings showed that over 90% of the respondents were male and their age ranges between 40-49 years. Majority (94%) had no formal education with very few (4%) having tertiary education. The most cultivated crops in the area included cassava, maize and yam. The average farm size of respondents is 2.5 acres and the farmland was mostly acquired through lease (48%). The most utilised source of labor is family labour (44%). Causes of conflict in the study area included insufficient graze land, use of minor to tender cattle and shortage of water while some of its effects on farming activities included: destruction of farmland, reduction of income and agricultural produce, displacement of farmers and physical attack that leads to accidents and sometimes death. The study therefore recommended that community heads should ensure proper security of community dwellers and grazing reserves should be provided for pastoralists by the government for peaceful coexistence among rural dwellers.

description: Corporate Social responsibility is the ability of organisations to give back to the society through mutually beneficial initiatives to guarantee a conflict-free co-existence. Consequently, this study was carried out to assess the impact of corporate social responsibility of the Federal University of Agriculture, Makurdi on its host communities. Snowball sampling technique was used to select 100 respondents for the study. Data were analyzed using frequencies, percentages and paired sample t-test methods. The results revealed that employment opportunities, agricultural innovations, extension services (adopted villages), electricity and water were the specific social responsibilities carried within the host communities. . The result of the Chi square statistic (20.967) at 5 percent level of probability showed that the projects had little positive impact on the means of livelihood of her host communities. It was concluded that the Cooperate Social Responsibility (CSR) projects of FUAM in the host communities were inadequate, hence the occasional disturbance by youths. It was recommended that the university should embark on more CSR Projects in the host communities.

Starting from out-of-equilibrium initial conditions, the dynamics at constant energy drives the system into quasi-stationary states (QSS) characterized by dynamical frustration. We introduce the spin polarization as a new order parameter which allows to interpret the dynamically generated QSS regime as a glassy phase of the model.

description: Indigenous institutions have been alleged as the nested structure crafted to regulate access of natural resources among different rural users. The leadership institutions in pastoral communities were found to be involved in the process of making authoritative decisions in respect of land access and sustainable use of natural resources in pastoral communities. This form of collective action becomes important as it fosters a good relationship between the pastoral groups and their hosts. Sustainable land management for cattle and crop production in pastoral communities is dependent on the prevalence of strong local institutions. Purposive sampling technique was used to select 200 respondents. Data were collected using Semi- structured Interview Guide. The result shows that Fulani pastoralists and crop farmers had a mean age of 54 and 65years respectively. Fulani respondents maintained that some of the challenges facing them were loose collaboration between statutory and indigenous institutions (44.5%), intrusion of migratory pastoralists (77.5%), illegal entry of new herders (87.5%), and others constitute collective action problems and challenges. Chi-square analysis showed that gender (χ2=28.05), Marital status (χ2=37.13), education (χ2=68.15) and religion (χ2=66.11) are significantly related with causes of conflict. The study concludes that intervention and self-regulation are important aspects of collective action processes in promoting peace as well as ensuring sustainable use of biophysical environment. Therefore it is recommended that the leadership institutions should be strengthened and indigenous rules be formalized among different users to enhance their effectiveness in fostering co-operation and reducing biophysical deterioration.

description: We report on the realization of a magneto-optical trap (MOT) for metastable strontium operating on the 2.92 $μ$m transition between the energy levels $5s5p~^3\mathrm{P}_2$ and $5s4d~^3\mathrm{D}_3$. The strontium atoms are initially captured in a MOT operating on the 461 nm transition between the energy levels $5s^2~^1\mathrm{S}_0$ and $5s5p~^1\mathrm{P}_1$, prior to being transferred into the metastable MOT and cooled to a final temperature of 6 $μ$K. Challenges arising from aligning the mid-infrared and 461 nm light are mitigated by employing the same pyramid reflector to realize both MOTs. Finally, the 2.92 $μ$m transition is used to realize a full cooling sequence for an optical lattice clock, in which cold samples of $^{87}\mathrm{Sr}$ are loaded into a magic-wavelength optical lattice and initialized in a spin-polarized state to allow high-precision spectroscopy of the $5s^2~^1\mathrm{S}_0$ to $5s5p~^3\mathrm{P}_0$ clock transition.

description: The study was carried out to assess the perceived effects of land grabbing conflicts on the livelihoods of rural communities in Obafemi Owode Local Government area of Ogun state, Nigeria. A total of 120 respondents were selected using a snowball technique. A structured interview schedule was used to elicit information from them. Theprimary data collected were analysed using frequency counts and percentages, and the Relative Importance Index. The study established the occurrence of land grabbing conflicts in the local government area which was carried out mainly by theomo-onilesand the private investors.The land grabbing in Ogun state commonly affect small land holders and private individuals. Most of the lands grabbed were meant for agricultural related activities and residential purposes. The coping strategies employed to mitigate land grabbing conflicts include Settlement for the purchase of new equipment, farm tools or inputs and farm produce (73.0%); re-negotiation with the Omo oniles (69.2%); Remission of a certain part of the farm produce to the Omo oniles (65.0%); and Erection of concrete and live fences (53.3%).The perceived effects of land grabbing conflicts according to their order of Relative Importance Indices are: loss of resources (1.66); marginalization of the right of the people especially the poor and the widows (0.95); and causes mayhem and unrest among the populace and also leads to affliction and death (0.91 respectively). Others are Deprivation of farmers’ source of livelihood (0.89); increase in the dependent of non-farm employment activities (0.87); loss of local profit from crop production (0.85); the waste of time and money in cases that are referred to the court (0.84); reduction in the quality of the land (0.83); and negatively affects social interaction in the communities (0.82); as well as the discouragement of investment in rural areas (0.75). The study concludes that land grabbing by the the omooniles and the private investors is prominent in Obafemi- Owode the local government area of Ogun state and affects mostly the small farmland holders and private individuals. The perceived effects of land grabbing conflicts permeate the physical, economic and social lives of the respondents. The study recommends the promulgation and implementation land policies andthe establishment of special task forces to fight against the violent and criminal activities of land grabbers by the government in Ogun State. The Non govermental Organisations could assist in building more housing estates for individual acquisition.

description: Intensive agricultural land use can impact pollinators mainly through habitat loss and/or modification. Native bees are negatively affected by agricultural intensification, isolation from natural habitats, decreases in plant diversity, and reduction in the availability of nesting sites. Despite this, in the Pampean region, there are scarce studies about the effect of agricultural activities on native bees. We studied the nesting ecology of the native leafcutter bee Megachile gomphrenoides (Megachilidae) in eight sites immersed in an agricultural matrix, where land use is a mosaic of agricultural land and some semi-natural areas. The sampling was developed using paired trap-nests in fragments without agricultural management and in soybean crops. We aimed to analyse the effects of floral and nesting resources on the abundance, the reproductive success and the parasitism rate of a population of M. gomphrenoides in a Pampean agroecosystem. Floral diversity was significantly correlated with abundance of nests and brood cells, and both parasitism rate and reproductive success of M. gomphrenoides were higher in nests built in fragments without agricultural management when compared to crop areas. Additionally, a negative correlation was found between reproductive success and flower diversity in crop areas. These results suggest that floral diversity is limiting the abundance of M. gomphrenoides nests, its reproductive success as well as its parasitism rate.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

Hybrid Approach to University Time Table Management

Subjects: Applied Computer Science

description: University timetable management is a complex task due to the availability of a large number of constraints. Allocation of lecture theaters and laboratories are carried out by considering the availability of lecturers, seating capacity of venues and subject combinations of students. These factors are difficult to handle with genetic algorithms to provide efficient and effective timetable management. Also, in addition, the genetic algorithm and NP Problem gives a solution for the data provided regardless of the user preference. Because of these reasons, this paper introduces a hybrid mechanism: partially automated and partially manual, in order to overcome the limitations of genetic algorithms and other techniques. The research objective is to develop a user-friendly, flexible and innovative timetable management system. Microsoft C# is used to implement the system. A panel matrix of n * m will be populated dynamically based on user choice. Where n is the number of days and m is the number of slots available for a day. The person who is responsible for generating timetable can drag and drop listed courses into the timetable interface. A heuristic algorithm is used to resolve the conflicts by providing different levels of priorities to each factor. C# collections and lambda expressions are utilized to filter the lecture venues, combinations, and courses based on the given priorities. The system compatibility was tested with data obtained from the student handbook, all venues, lecture theaters, and laboratories, available in the university. According to the system compatibility results, this system is capable of managing all aspects of timetable management, identify conflicts and suggest available time slots for new courses. Therefore, users may have a more sophisticated system compared to other systems. This system is a standalone solution and opens for extension.

Έπειτα, πραγματοποιήθηκαν τέσσερις ομάδες μετρήσεων στο δοκιμαστικό σύστημα δύο συσκευών για να διαπιστωθεί τυχών απόκλιση στη μέτρηση απόστασης. Ακολούθησε η υλοποίηση του τελικού συστήματος επτά συσκευών. Σχεδιάστηκαν τρείς δοκιμαστικές διαδρομές προκειμένου να αξιολογηθεί το πλήρες σύστημα. Στο τέλος αναφέρθηκαν τα συμπεράσματα από τη μελέτη των δεδομένων μετρήσεων και έγινε η αξιολόγηση του συστήματος
description: The aim of this thesis was the study and implementation of an indoor positioning system based on Ultra-wideband technology. The technologies, techniques, algorithms and digital filters commonly used in these systems were mentioned. Then the system specifications and goals were set. The materials for its implementation were also selected. The source code was written to create the firmware of all the microcontrollers of the system. Next, the method of collecting, storing and processing the location data sent by the devices to the central computing system was presented. Then, four sets of measurements were performed in the two-device test system to detect any deviation in the distance measurement. This was followed by the implementation of the final system of seven devices. Three test routes were designed to evaluate the complete system. At the end, the conclusions from a study of the measurement data were reported and the system was evaluated

description: We obtain sharp ranges of $L^p$-boundedness for domains in a wide class of Reinhardt domains representable as sub-level sets of monomials, by expressing them as quotients of simpler domains. We prove a general transformation law relating $L^p$-boundedness on a domain and its quotient by a finite group. The range of $p$ for which the Bergman projection is $L^p$-bounded on our class of Reinhardt domains is found to shrink as the complexity of the domain increases.
description: New main theorem and two new co-authors. The new results are applicable to a much more general class of domains

description: There is a need to bring to fore the contribution of indigenous institutions in promoting peace building, fostering co-operation and collaboration among settled Fulani Agro-pastoralists in communities of Ogun State, Nigeria. The leadership institutions in pastoral communities were found to be involved in the process of investigating and resolving conflict as well as making authoritative decisions in respect of land access and sustainable use of natural resources management. Sustainable access to land resources and use for cattle and crop production in pastoral communities is dependent on the prevalence of strong local institutions for collective action (cooperation and collaboration). Purposive sampling technique was used to select 435 respondents. Data were collected using semi-structured Interview Guide. Fulani respondents maintained that some of the challenges facing them were loose collaboration/contradiction between statutory and indigenous institutions, intrusion of migratory pastoralists (Bororo), illegal entry of new herders, lack of policy support by government to settle conflict between Fulani agro-pastoralists and others constitute collective action problems and challenges. Spearman correlation analysis revealed that there were significant relationships (p<0.01) between available local rules (r=0.252), utilised leadership institution (r=0.234) and conflict management. The study concludes that local institutions for building collective action in the management of conflict and water pollution such as Sarkin Fulani, Mawdo and Jawmu saare embedded with tradition (aldu), laws (doka) and justice (sharia) are important for the maintenance of peace and sustainable land resources among the Fulani pastoralists. It is recommended that leadership training in monitoring, enforcement and sanctions be provided to settled Fulani agro-pastoralists, host Yoruba farmers and migrant farmers.

description: We investigate the nonequilibrium transport properties of a three-terminal quantum dot in the strongly interacting limit. At low temperatures, a Kondo resonance arises from the antiferromagnetic coupling between the localized electron in the quantum dot and the conduction electrons in source and drain leads. It is known that the local density of states is accessible through the differential conductance measured at the (weakly coupled) third lead. Here, we consider the multiterminal current-current correlations (shot noise and cross correlations measured at two different terminals). We discuss the dependence of the current correlations on a number of external parameters: bias voltage, magnetic field and magnetization of the leads. When the Kondo resonance is split by fixing the voltage bias between two leads, the shot noise shows a nontrivial dependence on the voltage applied to the third lead. We show that the cross correlations of the current are more sensitive than the conductance to the appearance of an external magnetic field. When the leads are ferromagnetic and their magnetizations point along opposite directions, we find a reduction of the cross correlations. Moreover, we report on the effect of dephasing in the Kondo state for a two-terminal geometry when the third lead plays the role of a fictitious voltage probe.
