description: This report contains 1993 estiiiates of world population by country and region from 1950 to 1990 and projections to 2050 The projections show that world population will expand from 5.3 billion in 1990 to 6.2 billion in the year 2000 and to about 10.7 billion by the year 2050. The aggregate annual population growth rate is expected to decline from nearly 1.8 percent annually in the 1980's to just above 1.6 percent in the 1990's and then to average 1.1 percent between 2000 and 2050. The annual rate of increase for the world is expected to drop to 0.7 percent by 2050. The population data are provided for 222 countries and autonomous geographic units, 14* geographic regions, and the world. The data include population series for each republic of the former countries of Czechoslovakia, Soviet Union, and Yugoslavia. The principal data source is the International Data Base of the Bureau of the Census, U.S. Department of Commerce. In some cases, country data and Economic Research Service estimates were used.

description: While quality (e.g. taste and freshness) is a high priority for food manufacturers when sourcing ingredients, it is often not enough. Many food manufacturers seek an assurance that specific standards are met in the production of the ingredients they purchase. Certification programs are managed by "third-party" entities that certify, through an audit, that a business is meeting specific standards. Some companies also cater to segments of the market tha seek particular values-based standards related to social, health, or environmental concerns.

description: This report presents data collected to assess the scale of food deliveries to the University of British Columbia Vancouver Campus (UBC-V) Residences. Over the week of November 22 to 26, 2021, twenty-six student teams collected data on food deliveries taking place from 3:30pm to 9:30 pm from four student residences. Residences were chosen based on their size and ease of data collection. Data collected included the date, residence location, delivery time, vehicle type, food outlet name and location, and weather conditions. A total 229 deliveries were recorded and the average distance travelled for deliveries was estimated to be 4 km. Further analysis of this data will be undertaken to estimate the impact associated with the greenhouse gas emissions from these deliveries as well as to provide policy recommendations.

description: The dynamics of a non-autonomous oscillator in which the phase and frequency of the external force depend on the dynamical variable is studied. Such a control of the phase and frequency of the external force leads to the appearance of complex chaotic dynamics in the behavior of oscillator. A hierarchy of various periodic and chaotic oscillations is observed. The paper studies the structure of the space of control parameters. It is shown that in the dynamics of the system there are oscillatory modes similar to those of a non-autonomous oscillator with a potential in the form of a periodic function, but there are also significant differences.

description: To elucidate a novel pressure-temperature phase diagram of the quasi-one-dimensional mixed-stack charge-transfer (CT) complex TTF-CA, we study the quasi-one-dimensional spin-1 Blume-Emery-Griffith (BEG) model. In addition to the local charge transfer energy and the inter-stack polar (dipole-dipole) interaction, we take account of the inter-stack electrostriction effect. Using the self-consistent chain-mean-field theory, where the intra-stack degrees of freedom are exactly treated by the transfer-matrix method, we reproduce the gas-liquid-solid like phase diagram corresponding to the neutral (N), paraelectric ionic (I$_{\rm{para}}$), and ferroelectric ionic (I$_{\rm{ferro}}$) phases, respectively. We also give an explanation on the experimentally observed multicritical behavior and concomitant discontinuous inter-stack lattice contraction in TTF-CA.

description: We study two versions of the XY model where the spins but also the interaction topology is allowed to change. In the free XY model, the number of links is fixed, but their positions in the network are not. We also study a more relaxed version where even the number of links is allowed to vary, we call it the freer XY model. When the interaction networks are dense enough, both models have phase transitions visible both in spin configurations and the network structure. The low-temperature phase in the free XY model, is characterized by tightly connected clusters of spins pointing in the same direction, and isolated spins disconnected from the rest. For the freer XY model the low-temperature phase is almost completely connected. In both models, exponents describing the magnetic ordering are mostly consistent with values of the mean-field theory of the standard XY model.

description: The prevalence of hemorrhoids in the structure of coloproctological diseases is 34-41%. Despite the improvement of conservative methods of treatment of hemorrhoids, the main method of treatment of this pathology, which gives hope for a radical cure of the patient, is surgery. Surgical treatment is performed in about 30% of patients with chronic hemorrhoids. There are many methods of surgical treatment, which leads to severe pain and discomfort for the patient, increases the cost of treatment and prolongs the period of temporary disability. Among the postoperative complications are: bleeding, severe pain, dysuria, local edema and inflammation.

It will be observed that the thermal fluctuations can modify the behavior of this system. We will explicitly analyze the effect of such fluctuations on the stability of this black string solution. This will be done using the Hessian matrix for this system.

title: Parliamentary representation and general elections in Cheltenham Spa between 1832 and 1848: A Study of a Pocket Borough.
Creators: name: Courtenay, Adrian Hugh
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1991

description: Cheltenham gained its first Parliamentary representation under the terms of the Great Reform Act of 1832 by which it was. deemed to be a schedule D borough with the right to send one M. P. to Parliament. Foremost in the campaign to have Cheltenham represented was Lord Segrave of Berkeley Castle, already social patron of the town and now hoping to be its political master. Lord Segrave was successful in his attempt and for a number of years Cheltenham was represented by a member of the Berkeley family, whilst contemporaries bemoaned its status as a nominated or pocket borough. That status, however, was soon to be challenged. First, and somewhat unexpectedly, by discontented liberal. Radical and Chartist elements within the town supported by the outspoken Cheltenham Free Press: second by the recovery and emergence of a well-organised and powerful Tory group backed by the spiritual teachings of the town's evangelical rector, the Reverend Francis Close. This thesis traces the means by which Cheltenham sought representation under the terms of the 1832 Reform Act and how borough politics operated there for the next twenty years. This period also saw a major transition in Cheltenham's parliamentary credibility from that of pocket borough to one which was thought worthy of being contested by Tories and Liberal alike. As such, although primarily a local study, this thesis relates more generally to the twin themes of the decline of aristocratic influence in nineteenth century politics and the rise of more 'professional' party organisation. The study of Cheltenham's general elections over the period 1832-48 traces the decline of personal influence through patronage and bribery and sees it replaced by the influence of party management, through the work of the party agents in the registration and organisation of voters and a powerful supporting role of various press lobbies.

description: Abstract

There were 519.158 people suffered from HIV/AIDS in Indonesia at the end of Juni 2022, in which North Sumatera ranked the fifth with 13.150 people. HIV/AIDS cause physical, psychological, and social effects on patients; therefore, they need good coping strategy to face their illness and to increase the  quality of life. The objective of the research was to analyze the correlation of coping strategy with the quality of life of HIV/AIDS patients in the Special Service Center of H. Adam Malik Central General Hospital, Medan. The research used analytic method with cross sectional design. The population was all HIV/AIDS patients who got ARV therapy in the Special Service Center of H. Adam Malik Central General Hospital, and 55 of them were used as the samples. The result of the research showed that the respondents’ quality of life was in the range of 46.73 to 52.09. The highest score was quality of life in psychological domain (52.09), and the lowest score was the quality of life in physical domain (46.73). Instrument action coping strategy had significant correlation with quality of life in psychological domain at p-value = 0.04, negotiation had significant correlation with quality of life in physical domain at p-value = 0.00, escapism had significant correlation with quality of life in psychological domain (p=0.01) and environmental domain (p=0.01), and minimization coping strategy had significant correlation with quality of life of HIV/AIDS patients in psychological domain (p=0.03) and in social domain (p=0.01). It is recommended that HIV/AIDS patients use negotiation and minimization coping strategies  in their problems in order to increase their quality of life.

description: Algebraic tools in statistics have recently been receiving special attention and a number of interactions between algebraic geometry and computational statistics have been rapidly developing. This paper presents another such connection, namely, one between probabilistic models invariant under a finite group of (non-singular) linear transformations and polynomials invariant under the same group. Two specific aspects of the connection are discussed: generalization of the (uniqueness part of the multivariate) problem of moments and log-linear, or toric, modeling by expansion of invariant terms. A distribution of minuscule subimages extracted from a large database of natural images is analyzed to illustrate the above concepts.

Contrary to previous findings, premelting effects are also present at such medium sizes, and they turn out to be even stronger than the melting process itself for Na_133 or Na_135. These results indicate that the empirical potential is_qualitatively_ unadequate to model sodium clusters.

title: The Dynamics of Excited Hydrogen Atoms in Strong Electric and Magnetic Fields
Creators: name: Rath, Orsola
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1990

description: This thesis concerns the study of dynamical systems whose classical dynamics exhibit chaotic motion. Two systems in which classical chaos plays an important role are investigated in this work. Both involve highly excited hydrogen atoms in strong external fields, in one case a periodic electric field and in the other a uniform magnetic field. These examples are chosen for their particular relevance to the study of the relationship between classical and quantum dynamics when the motion is irregular. A three-dimensional classical simulation of the hydrogen atom in a microwave field is developed. This is then used for a study of the mechanism of ionisation and for an extensive comparison with experimental results. For this purpose a regularising transformation is developed, together with an asymptotic approximation for the case when the electron moves far from the atom. This reveals many interesting new features of the dynamics. Some explanations of the ionisation mechanism in different frequency ranges are given. The hydrogen atom in a magnetic field is studied by using the adiabatic method, which is shown to be reliable for very accurate calculations of the energy levels even when the external field is very strong and most of the orbits are irregular. This system has both librational and rotational motion. Although the zero-frequency motion on the separatrix contradicts the assumption of adiabatic invariance, it is shown that in practice the adiabatic method may still be applied. A similar problem occurs because one of the fundamental frequencies is initially zero, but this is overcome by choosing the initial conditions appropriately. An extensive review of the literature is given for both of these problems.

description: We present an X-ray absorption analysis of the high-velocity system (HVS) in NGC 1275 using results from a deep 200 ks Chandra observation. We are able to describe the morphology of the HVS in more detail than ever before. We present an HST image for comparison, and note close correspondence between the deepest X-ray absorption and the optical absorption. A column density map of the HVS shows an average column density NH of 1x10^21 cm^-2 with a range from ~5x10^20 to 5x10^21 cm^-2. From the NH map we calculate a total mass for the absorbing gas in the HVS of (1.32+-0.05)x10^9 solar masses at solar abundance. 75 per cent of the absorbing mass is contained in the four regions of deepest absorption. We examine temperature maps produced by spectral fitting and find no direct evidence for shocked gas in the HVS. Using deprojection methods and the depth of the observed absorption, we are able to put a lower limit on the distance of the HVS from the nucleus of 57 kpc, showing that the HVS is quite separate from the body of NGC 1275.

cost of pharmacotherapy.

description: Pharmacotherapy (PhT) of patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) requires significant funds, which significantly exceed the cost of treatment of most chronic diseases, including cancer [2]. Therefore, the analysis of the cost of RA, in particular at the regional level, is an urgent problem. The aim of the study was to analyse the cost of the main PhT schemes of patients with RA in the inpatient health care institution (IHCI) (rheumatology department of the 4th City Clinical Hospital of Lviv). Based on the analysis of 108 medical records of inpatients in 2020, it was found that the hospital used the following pharmacotherapeutic groups of drugs for the treatment of RA, such as disease-modifying antirheumatic drugs (DMARDs), glucocorticosteroids (GCSs) and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), a combination of which formed six schemes of PhT of RA. The largest share in the structure of appointments was occupied by the scheme of combining DMARDs with NSAIDs and GCSs (52.8%). The cost of treating patients with RA was divided into four cost niches. Half of all analysed medical records felled on the cheapest niche, which included PhT schemes with a cost of €0.53 to €22.09. Conclusions. Based on the analysis of drug for the main PhT of RA, the twenty-seven most frequently prescribed drug combination were selected. The most often used combination included one DMARD, from one to three NSAIDs and sometimes one GCSs. The cost of basic PhT of RA for the half of the patients was in the range of up to €22.09

description: 1. A method for preparing nuclei in high yield from brain tissue of one-day old chicks was developed. These nuclei appeared to be essentially free from contamination by cytoplasm and endothelial cells. A further fractionation of nuclei according to size (i.e. of presumed neuronal arid glial origins) proved impractical. 2. The activity and some characteristics of the enzyme RNA polymerase in the nuclei were determined and compared to the data available on the same enzyme from other sources. The activity of the chick enzyme was higher than that from mammals but was basically similar in its response to ions in the assay medium. 3.The activity of RNA polymerase was measured in three brain regions of chicks either exposed for 30 minutes to an imprinting stimulus or kept in darkness. There was a 34% higher activity in the forebrain roof of the exposed than the dark-maintained birds. 4. A new set of equipment for exposing chicks to the imprinting stimulus or diffuse light was built and tested, both by the birds' behaviour after exposure and by their relative degrees of incorporation of 14c-uracil into brain RNA. These results were compared to those obtained previously on other equipment and found to be in general agreement. 5. Using the new equipment, the effects of different periods of exposure to the stimulus on the birds’ cerebral RNA polymerase activity were determined. These results were compared with those from the uracil incorporation experiments. 6. Possible extensions of the work are discussed in conjunction with other suggested directions in which such research could be pursued.

description: Testing the effects predicted by the General Theory of Relativity, in its linearized weak field and slow motion approximation, in the Solar System is difficult because they are very small. Among them the post-Newtonian gravitomagnetic Lense-Thirring effect, or dragging of the inertial frames, on the orbital motion of a test particle is very interesting and, up to now, there is not yet an undisputable experimental direct test of it. Here we illustrate how it could be possible to measure it with an accuracy of the order of 1%, together with other tests of Special Relativity and post-Newtonian gravity, with a joint space based OPTIS/LARES mission in the gravitational field of Earth. Up to now, the data analysis of the orbits of the existing geodetic LAGEOS and LAGEOS II satellites has yielded a test of the Lense-Thirring effect with a claimed accuracy of 20%-30%.

description: The practice of successful poultry farms shows that the prevention of poultry parasitosis includes a complex of therapeutic and prophylactic measures aimed both against exogenous oocysts in the external environment and against the endogenous stages of the pathogen inside the bird's body, using modern antiparasitic agents. Taking into account the noted and special resistance of eimeria oocysts in the external environment, it is possible to create an effective disinfestation agent against them using several active ingredients and excipients. Among these drugs, glutaraldehyde and crystalline iodine should be noted, when used together at optimal concentrations. The experiments were carried out from August to October 2019 in the laboratory and vivarium of the Institute on 14-day-old Cobb-500 60 broiler chickens. Cystodes-ultra working solutions in different concentrations were prepared in advance, as well as a buffer solution WSH, a means for preserving bird feces. Cystodesis-ultra is a complex agent in the form of a liquid for disinfection of objects of veterinary veterinary supervision and prevention of invasive bird diseases. When testing the chickens of the first, second and third groups were given 1 ml of a suspension of Eimeria spp. oocysts, treated with 3; 4 and 5% solutions of Cystodes-ultra, inside using a micropipette; the fourth also 1 ml of a suspension of eimeria oocysts, treated with a 4% phenol solution. Broilers of the fifth group were given a suspension with sporulated Eimeria spp. oocysts at a dose of 2000 per 1 ml, untreated with a disinfectant the infected control, and the sixth group 1 ml each of WSH buffer solution non-infected control. During the experiment, the chickens were monitored daily, paying attention to their general condition, behavior, appetite, and visible physiological changes. According to the research results, the intensity of Cystodesisultra in 3, 4 and 5% concentration against sporulated eimeria oocysts was 93.08%; 100 and 100%, respectively, and phenol in 4% concentration 76.92%. The number of oocysts in 1 g of litter in the infected control group was 4680, and the chickens of the uninfected control remained free from invasion at all times of the study.

description: It has been established that decamethoxine (DСM) and its dosage form decasan (DS) showed the same microbicidal activity against E. coli museum strains (15.62 μg/ml), C. albicans (16 μg/ml), E. faecalis (0,97 μg/ml), Bас. subtilis (0.24 μg/ml). DS was less microboccidally active against S. aureus (0,48 μg/ml) compare to DMC (0.24 μg/ml). DS was also less microbicidal active against P. aeruginosa (250 μg/ml) than DCM (62.5 μg/ml). Decamethoxine a concentration of 10-5–10-2М dose-dependently leads to an increase of arginase activity in blood lymphocytes. Furthermore, the activity of the constitutive isoform of NO synthase in control was (71.4±6.9) and the activity of the inducible isoform (1.58±0.18) nmol NADPH(H+)/min per 1 mg of protein. With the action of decamethoxine at a concentration of 10-5 M the activity of cNOS decreased in 1.25 times and the activity of iNOS increased in 10.8 times. Consequently, there are a slight inhibition of LP processes under the action of different concentrations of decamethoxine. Thus, the concentration of MDA in blood lymphocytes is (62.3±4.6) nmol/mg protein of the control group. This numeric value decreases under the influence of the different concentrations of decamethoxine (10-5–10-2 M) but it is non-significant. Simultaneously, with a slight decrease in process LP appropriate changes in the activity of glutathione system enzymes were revealed. Thus, it was shown that lymphocyte glutathione peroxidase activity is (154.2±13.4) nmol GSH/min∙mg protein in control. Under the action of decamethoxine, this activity increases dose-dependently. Thus, the results obtained regarding the action of decamethoxin and fluoroquinolones indicate significant changes in the arginase-NO-synthase and glutathione antioxidant systems of blood lymphocytes, which leads to their imbalance and impaired regulatory role.

description: The profiles of the chromo-electric field generated by static quark-antiquark, $Q{\bar Q}$ and three-quark, $QQQ$ sources are calculated in Coulomb gauge. Using a variational ansatz for the ground state, we show that a flux tube-like structure emerges and combines to the ``Y''-shape field profile for three static quarks. The properties of the chromo-electric field are, however, not expected to be the same as those of the full action density or the Wilson line and the differences are discussed.

description: We prove that the group of tame automorphisms of a free Lie algebra (as well as of a free anticommutative algebra) rank 3 over an arbitrary integral domain has the structure of an amalgamated free product. We construct an example of a wild automorphism of a free Lie algebra (as well as of a free anticommutative algebra) of rank 3 over an arbitrary Euclidean ring analogous to the Anick automorphism for free associative algebras.

description: The results of the study of the effectiveness of the methods used for the diagnosis of oxyurosis in horses are presented. It is established that diagnostic deworming allows to identify the causative agent of oxyurosis in horses in 100% of cases, regardless of the stages of development of oxyuris. The standardized Shcherbovich flotation method with a saturated solution of sodium thiosulfate is 2.2 times more effective than the Darling method and 1.4 times more effective than the smear-print method from the perianal folds.

description: We consider a single genetic locus which carries two alleles, labelled P and Q. This locus experiences selection and mutation. It is linked to a second neutral locus with recombination rate r. If r=0, this reduces to the study of a single selected locus. Assuming a Moran model for the population dynamics, we pass to a diffusion approximation and, assuming that the allele frequencies at the selected locus have reached stationarity, establish the joint generating function for the genealogy of a sample from the population and the frequency of the P allele. In essence this is the joint generating function for a coalescent and the random background in which it evolves. We use this to characterize, for the diffusion approximation, the probability of identity in state at the neutral locus of a sample of two individuals (whose type at the selected locus is known) as solutions to a system of ordinary differential equations. The only subtlety is to find the boundary conditions for this system. Finally, numerical examples are presented that illustrate the accuracy and predictions of the diffusion approximation. In particular, a comparison is made between this approach and one in which the frequencies at the selected locus are estimated by their value in the absence of fluctuations and a classical structured coalescent model is used.
Fluctuation Analysis of the Far-Infrared Background - Information from the Confusion

description: We are investigating to what extent one can use a P(D) analysis to extract number counts of unclustered sources from maps of the far infrared background. Currently available such maps, and those expected to emerge in near future are dominated by confusion noise due to poor resolution. We simulate background maps with an underlying two slope model for N(S) and we find that in an experiment of FIRBACK type we can extract the high flux slope with an error of few percent while other parameters are not so well constrained. We find, however, that in a SIRTF type experiment all parameters of this N(S) model can be extracted with errors of only few percent.

description: We present an analytical estimate for the magnetic field strength generated by the Weibel instability in ultra-relativistic shocks in a hydrogen plasma. We find that the Weibel instability is, by itself, not capable of converting the kinetic energy of protons penetrating the shock front into magnetic field energy. Other (nonlinear) processes must determine the magnetic field strength in the wake of the shock.

description: Since issuing the Climate Emergency Declaration in 2019, UBC has recognized the critical need to deal with the incoming climate crisis. As part of the Climate Action Plan 2030 (CAP 2030) toward net-zero emissions, UBC has shifted to using climate-labels with relevant climate information to promote sustainable consumer behaviour. There have been mixed results so far with students reporting negative emotional outcomes from exposure to these climate-labels. Looking to bridge the gap between colour psychology and consumer outcomes, this study examined the effects of climate-label colouring on emotional affect and behavioural choices. One hundred and ninety-five participants completed a Qualtrics survey where they were randomly assigned to one of three conditions where they were asked to indicate their preference for a variety of food items. Finally, they answered questions on four emotion scales. Our analysis showed no significant results between different climate-labels and emotions, with marginally significant results between different climate-labels and choosing behaviour. Our results did not validate our proposed hypotheses and potential limitations include insufficient sample size and methodological problems with self-report. Our findings suggest future research in the direction of specific colour interactions.

Large Thermoelectric Effects in Unconventional Superconductors

Subjects: subject: Superconductivity (cond-mat.supr-con)

description: We present analytic and numerical results for the thermoelectric effect in unconventional superconductors with a dilute random distribution of impurities, each scattering isotropically but with a phase shift intermediate between the Born and unitary limits. The thermoelectric response function has a linear temperature dependence at low temperatures, with a slope that depends on the impurity concentration and phase shift. Although the thermoelectric effect vanishes identically in the strict Born and unitary limits, even a small deviation of the phase shift from these limits leads to a large response, especially in clean systems. We also discuss possibilities of measuring counter-flowing supercurrents in a SQUID-setup. The non-quantized thermoelectrically induced flux can easily be of the order of a percent of the flux quantum in clean systems at 4He temperatures.

Investigation of potassium-intercalated bulk MoS$_2$ using transmission electron energy-loss spectroscopy

description: We have investigated the effect of potassium (K) intercalation on $2H$-MoS$_2$ using transmission electron energy-loss spectroscopy. For K concentrations up to approximately 0.4, the crystals appear to be inhomogeneous with a mix of structural phases and irregular potassium distribution. Above this intercalation level, MoS$_2$ exhibits a $2a \times 2a$ superstructure in the $ab$ plane and unit cell parameters of a = 3.20 $\unicode{x212B}$ and c = 8.23 $\unicode{x212B}$ indicating a conversion from the $2H$ to the $1T'$ or $1T''$ polytypes. The diffraction patterns also show a $\sqrt{3}a \times \sqrt{3}a$ and a much weaker $2\sqrt{3}a \times 2\sqrt{3}a$ superstructure that is very likely associated with the ordering of the potassium ions. A semiconductor-to-metal transition occurs signified by the disappearance of the excitonic features from the electron energy-loss spectra and the emergence of a charge carrier plasmon with an unscreened plasmon frequency of 2.78 eV. The plasmon has a positive, quadratic dispersion and appears to be superimposed with an excitation arising from interband transitions. The behavior of the plasmon peak energy positions as a function of potassium concentration shows that potassium stoichiometries of less than $\sim 0.3$ are thermodynamically unstable while higher stoichiometries up to $\sim 0.5$ are thermodynamically stable. Potassium concentrations greater than $\sim 0.5$ lead to the decomposition of MoS$_2$ and the formation of K$_2$S. The real part of the dielectric function and the optical conductivity of K$_{0.41}$MoS$_2$ were derived from the loss spectra via Kramers-Kronig analysis.
