title: A Description of the Policies and Procedures of Retail Feed Dealers in Utah, 1958
Creators: name: Roper, Orson B.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1961

description: The retail feed industry has grown continually in importance during the past 60 years. Increased population has placed ever greater demands upon food production to feed our nation's people. During 1968, the average American consumed 80 pounds of beef, 63 pounds of pork, 8 pounds of veal, 4 pounds of lamb, 26 pounds of chicken, and 11 pounds of lard. This amounted to an annual per capita consumption of 188 pounds of red meat. With 173 million people to feed, vast quantities of livestock must be produced, finished, and marketed to satisfy our nation's needs.

description: As a primary material frequently used in industry, chlorine is relatively easy to obtain and available even in large quantities. Despite its high toxicity, molecular chlorine is readily available since it is an essential educt in the chemical industry. Over the past decades, numerous accidents involving injured and dead victims have occurred. Furthermore, it was already misused as a warfare agent at the beginning of the last century with still reported attacks. Early detection, localization, and monitoring of sources and cloud movements are essential for protecting stationary facilities, mobile operations, and the public. In contrast to most chemical hazardous materials, where it is possible to detect them by vibrational spectroscopic methods (e.\,g., passive hyper-spectral absorption technologies in the infrared), halogens are inactive to infrared absorption. Raman-based technologies rely on changes in the polarizability of the molecule and provide vibrational-spectroscopic access to such diatomic molecules and therefore close the gap in infrared detection capabilities. Here we present a straightforward approach for a standoff Raman detector in a backscattering configuration. This paper uses a simplified model to discuss optimum excitation wavelengths in achievable detection ranges. We validate the model by spontaneous (vibrational) Raman spectroscopic measurements between 20 and 60~m standoff distance. We also briefly discuss detection performances and technical and physical aspects as prospects of system design.

Human experience in judicial administration for the adult offender in the Greater Vancouver area
Creators: name: Ball, Leonard Rae
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The purpose of this thesis is to explore, as far as possible, the human element in the process of judicial administration. It attempts to include some aspects, and the environmental situation, of several social groupings including the skid row habitue and the professional criminal. To this extent it tries to get a perspective relative to the intent of the offender. The paper also tries to develop a scope that relates existing machineries of judicial administration as they relate to the various offenders. The primary purpose is, through a general survey, to create questions rather than answer them. It is hoped that future research can and will be done in order to clarify the pertinent queries made. Among the questions indicated as badly in need of an answer are the possibility of a total change in the administration to answer the specific needs of the skid row unemployed or unemployable who may be totally accepting the present judicial syndrome to get subsistence and the effects of the process of admission into the city or provincial jail which may restructure an individual's self-image so as to alienate him from his original society and create a possible recidivist as he adapts to the jail or prison sub-culture.

Infrared identification of IGR J09026-4812 as a Seyfert 1 galaxy

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: IGR J09026-4812 was discovered by INTEGRAL in 2006 as a new hard X-ray source. Thereafter, an observation with Chandra pinpointed a single X-ray source within the ISGRI error circle, showing a hard spectrum, and improving its high-energy localisation to a subarcsecond accuracy. Thus, the X-ray source was associated to the infrared counterpart 2MASS J09023731-4813339 whose JHKs photometry indicated a highly reddened source. The high-energy properties and the counterpart photometry suggested a high-mass X-ray binary with a main sequence companion star located 6.3-8.1 kpc away and with a 0.3-10 keV luminosity of 8e34 erg/s. New optical and infrared observations were needed to confirm the counterpart and to reveal the nature of IGR J09026-4812. We performed optical and near infrared observations on the counterpart 2MASS J09023731-4813339 with the ESO/NTT telescope on March 2007. We achieved photometry and spectroscopy in near infrared wavelengths and photometry in optical wavelengths. The accurate astrometry at both optical and near infrared wavelengths confirmed 2MASS J09023731-4813339 to be the counterpart of IGR J09026-4812. However, the near infrared images show that the source is extended, thus excluding any Galactic compact source possibility. The source spectrum shows three main emission lines identified as the HeI lambda 1.0830 micron line, and the HI Pa_beta and Pa_alpha lines, typical in galaxies with an active galactic nucleus. The broadness of these lines reached values as large as 4000 km/s pointing towards a type 1 Seyfert galaxy. The redshift of the source is z=0.0391(4). Thus, the near infrared photometry and spectroscopy allowed us to classify IGR J09026-4812 as a Seyfert galaxy of type 1.

description: We analyze the strength of polarization correlations between two light beams that can be achieved in the semiclassical regime using statistical mixtures of coherent states and binary on/off detectors. Under certain symmetry assumptions, the visibility of polarization correlations is shown to be bounded by 1/3, which is in a striking contrast with perfect 100% correlations exhibited by photon pairs prepared in the singlet state. The semiclassical limit is demonstrated in a measurement performed on a pair of laser beams undergoing correlated depolarization. This result illustrates the dramatic difference between predictions of quantum mechanics and the semiclassical theory of electromagnetic radiation for the polarization degree of freedom.

Power Spectra of Slow-Roll inflation in the consistent $D\to 4$ Einstein-Gauss-Bonnet gravity

description: The slow-roll inflation which took place at extremely high energy regimes is in general believed to be sensitive to the high-order curvature corrections to the classical general relativity (GR). In this paper, we study the effects of the high-order curvature term, the Gauss-Bonnet (GB) term, on the primordial scalar and tensor spectra of the slow-roll inflation in the consistent $D \to 4$ Einstein Gauss-Bonnet (4EGB) gravity. The GB term is incorporated into gravitational dynamics via the re-scaling of the GB coupling constant $α\to α/(D-4)$ in the limit $ D\to 4$. For our purpose, we calculate explicitly the primordial scalar and tensor power spectra with GB corrections accurate to the next-to-leading order in the slow-roll approximation in the slow-roll inflation by using the third-order uniform asymptotic approximation method. The corresponding spectral indices and their runnings of the spectral indices for both the scalar and tensor perturbations as well as the ratio between the scalar and tensor spectra are also calculated up to the next-to-leading order in the slow-roll expansions. These results represent the most accurate results obtained so far in the literature. In addition, by studying the theoretical predictions of the scalar spectral index and the tensor-to-scalar ratio with Planck 2018 constraint in a model with power-law potential, we show that the second-order corrections are important in future measurements.

Recovering the intrinsic shape of early-type galaxies

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We investigate how well the intrinsic shape of early-type galaxies can be recovered when both photometric and two-dimensional stellar kinematic observations are available. We simulate these observations with galaxy models that are representative of observed oblate fast-rotator to triaxial slow-rotator early-type galaxies. By fitting realistic triaxial dynamical models to these simulated observations, we recover the intrinsic shape (and mass-to-light ratio), without making additional (ad-hoc) assumptions on the orientation. For (near) axisymmetric galaxies the dynamical modelling can strongly exclude triaxiality, but the regular kinematics do not further tighten the constraint on the intrinsic flattening significantly, so that the inclination is nearly unconstrained above the photometric lower limit even with two-dimensional stellar kinematics. Triaxial galaxies can have additional complexity in both the observed photometry and kinematics, such as twists and (central) kinematically decoupled components, which allows the intrinsic shape to be accurately recovered. For galaxies that are very round or show no significant rotation, recovery of the shape is degenerate, unless additional constraints such as from a thin disk are available.

description: Modern three-dimensional nanofabrication methods make it possible to generate arbitrarily shaped nanomagnets, including periodic networks of interconnected magnetic nanowires. Structurally similar to optical or acoustic metamaterials, these arrays could represent magnetic variants of such artificial materials. Using micromagnetic simulations, we investigate a three-dimensional array of interconnected magnetic nanowires with intersection points corresponding to atomic positions of a diamond lattice. The high-frequency excitation spectrum of this artificial magnetic crystal (AMC) is governed by its microstructure and, to a lesser extent, by the magnetic configuration. The magnetic system displays characteristics of three-dimensional artificial spin ice. It can contain Dirac-type magnetic defect structures, which modify the magnonic spectrum of the AMC similarly as defect sites in a natural diamond crystal influence optical absorption spectra. Our study opens new perspectives for applying such materials in high-density magnonic devices and shows that AMCs represent a promising category of magnonic materials with tunable properties.

description: The aim of steganographic algorithms is to identify the appropriate pixel positions in the host or cover image, where bits of sensitive information can be concealed for data encryption. Work is being done to improve the capacity to integrate sensitive information and to maintain the visual appearance of the steganographic image. Consequently, steganography is a challenging research area. In our currently proposed image steganographic technique, we used the Shuffled Frog Leaping Algorithm (SFLA) to determine the order of pixels by which sensitive information can be placed in the cover image. To achieve greater embedding capacity, pixels from the spatial domain of the cover image are carefully chosen and used for placing the sensitive data. Bolstered via image steganography, the final image after embedding is resistant to steganalytic attacks. The SFLA algorithm serves in the optimal pixels selection of any colored (RGB) cover image for secret bit embedding. Using the fitness function, the SFLA benefits by reaching a minimum cost value in an acceptable amount of time. The pixels for embedding are meticulously chosen to minimize the host image's distortion upon embedding. Moreover, an effort has been taken to make the detection of embedded data in the steganographic image a formidable challenge. Due to the enormous need for audio data encryption in the current world, we feel that our suggested method has significant potential in real-world applications. In this paper, we propose and compare our strategy to existing steganographic methods.

description: We have studied nonlinear superconducting resonators: lambda/2 coplanar-waveguide (CPW) resonators with Josephson junctions (JJs) placed in the middle and lambda/4 CPW resonators terminated by JJs, which can be used for the qubit readout as "bifurcation amplifiers." The nonlinearity of the resonators arises from the Josephson junctions, and because of the nonlinearity, the resonators with appropriate parameters are expected to show a hysteretic response to the frequency sweep, or "bifurcation," when they are driven with a sufficiently large power. We designed and fabricated resonators whose resonant frequencies were around 10 GHz. We characterized the resonators at low temperatures, T<0.05 K, and confirmed that they indeed exhibited hysteresis. The sizes of the hysteresis, however, are sometimes considerably smaller than the predictions based on the loaded quality factor in the weak drive regime. When the discrepancy appears, it is mostly explained by taking into account the internal loss, which often increases in our resonators with increasing drive power in the relevant power range. As a possible origin of the power-dependent loss, the quasiparticle channel of conductance of the JJs is discussed.

description: We present a novel analytical framework for the evaluation of important second order statistical parameters, as the level crossing rate (LCR) and the average fade duration (AFD) of the amplify-and-forward multihop Rayleigh fading channel. More specifically, motivated by the fact that this channel is a cascaded one, which can be modelled as the product of N fading amplitudes, we derive novel analytical expressions for the average LCR and AFD of the product of N Rayleigh fading envelopes, or of the recently so-called N*Rayleigh channel. Furthermore, we derive simple and efficient closed-form approximations to the aforementioned parameters, using the multivariate Laplace approximation theorem. It is shown that our general results reduce to the specific dual-hop case, previously published. Numerical and computer simulation examples verify the accuracy of the presented mathematical analysis and show the tightness of the proposed approximations.

description: For gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) with durations greater than two seconds (so-called long GRBs), the intrinsic prompt gamma-ray emission appears, on average, to last longer for bursts at lower redshifts. We explore the nature of this duration-redshift anti-correlation, describing systems and conditions in which this cosmological evolution could arise. In particular, we explore its dependence on metallicity of a massive star progenitor, as we can securely count on the average stellar metallicity to increase with decreasing redshift. Although higher metallicity/lower redshift stars lose mass and angular momentum through line-driven winds, in some cases these stars are able to form more extended accretion disks when they collapse, potentially leading to longer duration GRBs. We also examine how this duration-redshift trend may show up in interacting binary models composed of a massive star and compact object companion, recently suggested to be the progenitors of radio bright GRBs. Under certain conditions, mass loss and equation of state effects from higher metallicity, lower redshift massive stars can decrease the binary separation. This can then lead to spin-up of the massive star and allow for a longer duration GRB upon the massive star's collapse. Finally, the duration-redshift trend may also be supported by a relatively larger population of small-separation binaries born in situ at low redshift.

Some of these models are local, some are non-local. Also electromagnetic effects are included. Accurate calculations for many scattering observables at various center-of-mass energies are performed and the results are compared with the available experimental data. Furthermore, a χ^2 analysis of some of the Hamiltonian models has been performed to compare their capability to describe the scattering process.

title: The Study of the Effect of Various Methods of Harvesting and Curing on the Color and Viability of Lima Bean Seed
Creators: name: Date, S. G.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1962

description: Many seedsmen have observed that lima bean seed of a variety like Early Thorogreen, which has green cotyledons, often fades in color during harvesting. This fading of color is known as bleaching. A variety which has green cotyledon and hence green seed, should retain this green color during harvest. Bleached seeds are likely to emerge slowly when planted. Also, the final field stand from a planting of bleached seed is likely to be poor.

description: Exciton dynamics dictate the evolution of photoexcited carriers in photovoltaic and optoelectronic devices. However, interpreting their experimental signatures is a challenging theoretical problem due to the presence of both electron-phonon and many-electron interactions. We develop and apply here a first-principles approach to exciton dynamics resulting from exciton-phonon coupling in monolayer MoS2 and reveal the highly selective nature of exciton-phonon coupling due to the internal spin structure of excitons, which leads to a surprisingly long lifetime of the lowest energy bright A exciton. Moreover, we show that optical absorption processes rigorously require a second-order perturbation theory approach, with photon and phonon treated on an equal footing, as proposed by Toyozawa and Hopfield. Such a treatment, thus far neglected in first-principles studies, gives rise to off-diagonal exciton-phonon coupling matrix elements, which are critical for the description of dephasing mechanisms, and yields exciton linewidths in excellent agreement with experiment.

description: Higher order symmetries corresponding to Killing tensors are investigated. The intimate relation between Killing-Yano tensors and non-standard supersymmetries is pointed out. In the Dirac theory on curved spaces, Killing-Yano tensors generate Dirac type operators involved in interesting algebraic structures as dynamical algebras or even infinite dimensional algebras or superalgebras. The general results are applied to space-times which appear in modern studies. One presents the infinite dimensional superalgebra of Dirac type operators on the 4-dimensional Euclidean Taub-NUT space that can be seen as a twisted loop algebra. The existence of the conformal Killing-Yano tensors is investigated for some spaces with mixed Sasakian structures.

Does Bulk Viscosity Create a Viable Unified Dark Matter Model?

description: We investigate in detail the possibility that a single imperfect fluid with bulk viscosity can replace the need for separate dark matter and dark energy in cosmological models. With suitable choices of model parameters, we show that the background cosmology in this model can mimic that of a LCDM Universe to high precision. However, as the cosmic expansion goes through the decelerating-accelerating transition, the density perturbations in this fluid are rapidly damped out. We show that,although this does not significantly affect structure formation in baryonic matter, it makes the gravitational potential decay rapidly at late times, leading to modifications in predictions of cosmological observables such as the CMB power spectrum and weak lensing. This model of unified dark matter is thus difficult to reconcile with astronomical observations. We also clarify the differences with respect to other unified dark matter models where the fluid is barotropic, i.e., p=p(rho), such as the (generalized) Chaplygin gas model, and point out their observational difficulties. We also summarize the status of dark sector models with no new dynamical degrees of freedom introduced and discuss the problems with them.

During rain, I plant chrysanthemums

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This thesis consists of a group of unrelated poems on subjects seen in shifting perspectives. Not even the traditional Absolutes remain static: God sometimes is a lover, or an abstraction, or a blue beetle. At times the temper is passion; then again, exhaustion. I have attempted to express the various, contrasting conditions of the human spirit: fire, frigidity, chaos, wonder. If it seems that the poems have no integral relation to each other, each poetic cubicle refusing to melt in one body of water, it is because I have deliberately given them independent existences. Even the form is as varied as the concepts proposed. I feel ultimately betrayed by set assertions and solid unities which do not bend or quake with natural forces or human impulses. I see atoms swirling in the heat of my creative energy, each disintegrating unit shedding divergent lights. I cannot see only one atom brilliant enough to guide oneself in the dark moments of life—even the atom of Love breaks into psychological complexities—but perhaps all these can bring the Self to utter confusion and to insecurity of logic. Once lost, the Self senses only the probabilities of existence, and thus, exists!
Fermi Surface Topological Invariants for Time Reversal Invariant Superconductors

description: A time reversal invariant (TRI) topological superconductor has a full pairing gap in the bulk and topologically protected gapless states on the surface or at the edge. In this paper, we show that in the weak pairing limit, the topological quantum number of a TRI superconductor can be completely determined by the Fermi surface properties, and is independent of the electronic structure away from the Fermi surface. In three dimensions (3D), the integer topological quantum number in a TRI superconductor is determined by the sign of the pairing order parameter and the first Chern number of the Berry phase gauge field on the Fermi surfaces. In two (2D) and one (1D) dimension, the $Z_2$ topological quantum number of a TRI superconductor is determined simply by the sign of the pairing order parameter on the Fermi surfaces. We also obtain a generic and explicit expression of the $Z_2$ topological invariant in 1D and 2D.

Ferromagnetic transition in the double-exchange model on the pyrochlore lattice

description: The double-exchange model, which has been extensively studied in the context of colossal magneto-resistance in perovskite manganese oxides, is known to exhibit a ferromagnetic metallic state at low temperatures because of the interplay between localized moments and itinerant electrons through the Hund's-rule coupling. Here we investigate numerically the ferromagnetic transition in the double-exchange model defined on the frustrated pyrochlore lattice as a simple model for ferromagnetic pyrochlore oxides. We demonstrate that the finite-size corrections are largely reduced by implementing averages over the twisted boundary conditions in the Monte Carlo simulation, which enables to estimate the ferromagnetic transition temperature in relatively small size clusters. The estimate is compared with that for the non-frustrated cubic lattice system.

description: We propose and experimentally verify two methods to scale arbitrary units to photocurrent spectral density (A/eV) in Fourier Transform Photocurrent (FTPC) spectroscopy. We also propose the FTPC scaling to responsivity (A/W), provided a narrow-band optical power measurement is available. The constant background of the interferogram provides a precise determination of the photocurrent spectral density. The second method relies on the scaled amplitude of the interferogram. Although the latter method leads to more significant errors, it still provides good order of magnitude estimates of the total photocurrent. We demonstrate the technique on a calibrated InGaAs diode and weak responsivity SiC interdigital sensors. We identify a series of impurity-band and interband transitions in the SiC sensors.
