Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: Infiltration of anomalously diffusing particles from one material to another through a biased interface is studied using continuous time random walk and Levy walk approaches. Subdiffusion in both systems may lead to a net drift from one material to another (e.g. > 0) even if particles eventually flow in the opposite direction (e.g. number of particles in x>0 approaches zero). A weaker paradox is found for a symmetric interface: a flow of particles is observed while the net drift is zero. For a subdiffusive sample coupled to a superdiffusive system we calculate the average occupation fractions and the scaling of the particles distribution. We find a net drift in this system, which is always directed to the superdiffusive material, while the particles flow to the material with smaller sub or superdiffusion exponent. We report the exponents of the first passage times distribution of Levy walks, which are needed for the calculation of anomalous infiltration

description: Despite lockdowns, general stay-at-home orders and the inability to leave Oxford or visit friends an family, I have learnt a lot about adapting to the situation and keeping calm over the past year. I have encountered obstacles in getting access to the lab, which is so key for work. Since labs re-opened in May 2020, I have managed to maintain a routine of lab work, data analysis, preparing and presenting at meetings, findings new networks in the virtual sphere and explored new methods and techniques for my research. I have cleared hurdles from all directions and felt confused when the university undergraduates started their lab placements (in-person) despite government-implemented restrictions on all other facets of life. I stepped up my volunteering duties across Oxford, feeling guilty for not being close and on-hand for my parents up north, to help those who might feel isolated or alone in Oxford. I have stuck to the rules. I have grown a whole new outlook and way of life that will stay with me long after this year.
Painting as thinking ; painting as conversation : an examination of learning through painting through studio visits with Canadian artists
Creators: name: Shields, Alison
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2018

description: This dissertation discusses contemporary Canadian painting practices through a cross-Canada research journey, from the west coast to the east coast, visiting approximately 125 artists (who work primarily with the medium of painting) in their studios. Through in-depth interviews with artists about their artwork, process and communities, and exploration of the studios through photograph documentation, my doctoral research examines: How is painting a way of learning? As practice-led research, this research is generated and analyzed within the perspective of my own painting practice. I analyze the research through the lens of new materialist theories to examine painting as performative by drawing from Bolt’s (2007, 2013) discussion of materiality and the performativity of art practice and through the lens of Barad’s (2007) discussion of diffraction. The research is presented as a series of propositions that present qualities of learning through painting with examples from artists interviewed. As a performative practice, these propositions discuss painting as an emergent, embodied, material, affective, relational and experiential process of learning. They propose that through the material process of painting, artists learn about themselves, others and their relationship to the world in which they inhabit. Photographic interludes extend the discussion by presenting the space of learning, the studio. The final chapters present my own paintings that evolved in relation to the research thus revealing a generative relationship between practice-led and qualitative research methods. This research is conceived, developed and analyzed through my lens as an art educator. Within the context of rapidly changing education that includes inquiry-based, experiential and creative approaches to learning that are often at odds within a system that continues to rely on measurable objectives, and within the context of increased emphasis on digital technologies, I propose that this research has significant implications. This study contributes to research about artistic inquiry within art education particularly as it relates to material practices, and highlights the necessity for embracing uncertainties, ambiguities, messiness, affect, embodiment and material engagement within the creative learning process.

description: Ground-state energies are investigated in a many-quark model with pairing interactions, which has the su(4)-algebraic structure. Exact eigenstates in the boson realization method are constructed by imposing a color-singlet condition developed in the previous paper. An interaction term breaking the su(4)-dynamical symmetry plays an important role to determine the ground state. As a result, a quark-pairing state or a quark-triplet state as a nucleon is realized with a certain value of a variable which is regarded as an order parameter. In addition to the parameter regions in which these ground states are realized, it is shown that there are two transition regions between the quark-pairing and the quark-triplet states with different values of the order parameter.

hiił kʷiiʔił siƛ (bringing something good from way back) : a journey to humanize post-secondary education
Creators: name: Smith, Dawn Marie
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2018

description: This dissertation explores my personal journey of becoming a human being, particularly by drawing on Nuu-chah-nulth principles of ʔuuʔuuqʷaač̓ii (self-independence). Relevant literature, resources and personal stories help identify the underpinning aspects of epistemological dominance, blindness, and collisions, which occur in the classrooms of post-secondary institutions. Although Indigenous-led education and policy contributes to Indigenous student success, more has to be done to understand current processes of Indigenization, decolonization, and reconciliation. Educational practitioners, Indigenous and non-Indigenous, who engage in these processes help lead the way, but will likely encounter feelings of being unsettled or uncomfortable. At times, feelings of fear, shame and guilt arise leaving people feeling unsure or unwilling to try. Nuu-chah-nulth teachings of yaʔakmis (love and pain) represents the possibilities and limitations of integrating Indigenous ways of knowing and being within post-secondary. Indigenization, reconciliation, and decolonization are all processes that require courage and action; they also require leaders who are ready for these processes. They also require an understanding of one’s self in relation to values, beliefs, and prejudices; it is a critical component of these processes. Leaders must be genuine while recognizing the value of Indigenization, decolonization, and reconciliation. The research questions are designed to bring a holistic approach and provide guidance that will help to improve my practice, as an educator. The research questions are, • What do the principles of Indigenous self-determination mean in the context of indigenizing initiatives within post-secondary education? • What are the possibilities and limitations (the love and pain)? • What needs to change in order for these principles to be realized in these initiatives? Throughout this journey, my personal life experiences, as Nuu-chah-nulth-aht (person of Nuu-chah-nulth ancestry), inform and help me unmask favorable and unfavorable practices, specifically of Indigenization. The findings reveal the uncomfortable nature many feel when confronted with the history of Canada and the daunting task of Indigenization, decolonization, and reconciliation. Unpacking colonial policies and practices of education while examining more closely aspects of who we are (values, beliefs and prejudices), particularly as people who share this land, is a critical component of doing the work of Indigenization, decolonization, and reconciliation.

description: We demonstrate a new model which uses an ADD type braneworld scenario to produce a multi-state theory of dark matter. Compactification of the extra dimensions onto a sphere leads to the association of a single complex scalar in the bulk with multiple Kaluza-Klein towers in an effective four-dimensional theory. A mutually interacting multi-state theory of dark matter arises naturally within which the dark matter states are identified with the lightest Kaluza-Klein particles of fixed magnetic quantum number. These states are protected from decay by a combination of a global U(1) symmetry and the continuous rotational symmetry about the polar axis of the spherical geometry. We briefly discuss the relic abundance calculation and investigate the spin-independent elastic scattering off nucleons of the lightest and next-to-lightest dark matter states.

description: Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis has been instrumental in the birth and developments of proteomics, although it is no longer the exclusive separation tool used in the field of proteomics. In this review, a historical perspective is made, starting from the days where two-dimensional gels were used and the word proteomics did not even exist. The events that have led to the birth of proteomics are also recalled, ending with a description of the now well-known limitations of two-dimensional gels in proteomics. However, the often-underestimated advantages of two-dimensional gels are also underlined, leading to a description of how and when to use two-dimensional gels for the best in a proteomics approach. Taking support of these advantages (robustness, resolution, and ability to separate entire, intact proteins), possible future applications of this technique in proteomics are also mentioned.
A compact statistical model of the song syntax in Bengalese finch

description: Songs of many songbird species consist of variable sequences of a finite number of syllables. A common approach for characterizing the syntax of these complex syllable sequences is to use transition probabilities between the syllables. This is equivalent to the Markov model, in which each syllable is associated with one state, and the transition probabilities between the states do not depend on the state transition history. Here we analyze the song syntax in a Bengalese finch. We show that the Markov model fails to capture the statistical properties of the syllable sequences. Instead, a state transition model that accurately describes the statistics of the syllable sequences includes adaptation of the self-transition probabilities when states are repeatedly revisited, and allows associations of more than one state to the same syllable. Such a model does not increase the model complexity significantly. Mathematically, the model is a partially observable Markov model with adaptation (POMMA). The success of the POMMA supports the branching chain network hypothesis of how syntax is controlled within the premotor song nucleus HVC, and suggests that adaptation and many-to-one mapping from neural substrates to syllables are important features of the neural control of complex song syntax.

description: We discuss non-perturbative corrections to the gauge kinetic functions in a four-dimensional N=2 gauge theory realized with a system of D7/D3-branes in a compactification of type I' theory on T_4/Z_2 x Z_2. The non-perturbative contributions arise when D(-1) branes, corresponding to stringy instantons, are added to the system; such contributions can be explicitly evaluated using localization techniques and precisely match the results predicted by the heterotic/type I' duality. This agreement represents a very non-trivial test of the stringy multi-instanton calculus.

description: A phase structure and phase transitions are investigated in the modified Bonn quark model. The force strength, which represents the particle-hole type interaction, is devised so as to depend on the quark number, namely quark number density. As a result, it is shown that the phase transition from the quark-triplet state as a nucleon to the quark-pair state as a color-superconducting state occurs as the density increases.

description: The work by Christandl, König and Renner [Phys. Rev. Lett. 102, 020504 (2009)] provides in particular the possibility of studying unconditional security in the finite-key regime for all discrete-variable protocols. We spell out this bound from their general formalism. Then we apply it to the study of a recently proposed protocol [Laing et al., Phys. Rev. A 82, 012304 (2010)]. This protocol is meaningful when the alignment of Alice's and Bob's reference frames is not monitored and may vary with time. In this scenario, the notion of asymptotic key rate has hardly any operational meaning, because if one waits too long time, the average correlations are smeared out and no security can be inferred. Therefore, finite-key analysis is necessary to find the maximal achievable secret key rate and the corresponding optimal number of signals.

description: I am an international student. March 2020, I was doing a research assistant job alone in London. After UK announced the first lockdown, I had nowhere to go because my landlord decided to suddenly end my rent contract. I did not fight back because I was also worried about being isolated during a pandemic. I then moved to Oxford staying with my boyfriend, who is a DPhil student living in Wolfson College. We are lucky as Wolfson kept open all the 2020 and even provide fresh foods for residents when groceries were in shortage at the beginning. However, Wolfson also forbade visitors, which means I shouldn't be there. I was more like hiding there---- I never went to the shared kitchen and we even never opened the curtains. We stayed in the small room for 6 months because no home flight was available. I didn't know if I should rent another room because I might suddenly go if I got a flight ticket. I managed to work on my research(yes I study public health)and received DPhil offer from Oxford. In September 2020, we finally moved to new flat, where I can have my own big study desk. Thank you Wolfson but please don't blame us for breaking rules.
Time and metaphor : reading and writing the computus in the British Isles, 600-1400
Creators: name: Green, William Walker
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2024

description: “Time and Metaphor: Reading and Writing the Computus in the British Isles, 600–1400” takes up the question of the poetic and figurative substrate of the medieval time-reckoning practice known as computus. “Computus” refers both to the method of calculating the correct date of Easter and other variable Christian feast days and the textual materials produced by this method. These were, in the first instance, tables giving the correct date of Easter for some cyclical number of years, or the information needed in order for such calculations, but the term later came to be applied to texts dealing with the theory and practice of the Easter calculation which in the later medieval period took on an encyclopedic character. The problems involved in placing Easter at the appropriate time in the solar Roman calendar (its date depending upon the Hebrew lunar calendar) included discussions of such things as mathematics, astronomy, and the nature of the physical world and the heavens’ influence upon the earth. For this reason, these texts have often been conceived of as representing a kind of medieval science. This dissertation argues that it is more productive to read these texts for the insights they offer into the foundational metaphors through which medieval authors in England imagined the universe in which they lived. While ‘science’ remains a useful shorthand for these texts, a close examination of the conception of what the study of computus did and what its objects and purposes were reveal a mental habitus suited to a world quite alien from our own. Each chapter in this dissertation reads the work of English authors at a particular point in the development of English computistical thought (monastic thinkers and writers in chapters 2 through 4, and popular and scholastic writing in chapter 5) for how it exhibits these ideas of the universe. I trace a history of the foundations of computistical thought and its influence upon modes of thinking across many disparate domains, and address the nature of computus as a specifically medieval phenomenon.
The updated luminosity correlations of gamma-ray bursts and cosmological implications

description: Several interesting luminosity correlations among gamma-ray burst (GRB) variables have been recently discussed extensively. In this paper, we derive the six luminosity correlations ($\tlag-L$, $V-L$, $\epkk-L$, $\epkk-E_γ$, $\trt-L$, $\epkk-E_{γ, \mathrm{iso}}$) from the light curves and spectra of the latest 116 long GRBs, including the time lag ($\tlag$) between low and high photon energy light curves, the variability ($V$) of the light curve, the peak energy of the spectrum ($\epkk$), and the minimum rise time ($\trt$) of the peaks. We find that the intrinsic scatter of the $V-L$ correlation is too large and there seems no inherent correlation between the two parameters using the latest GRB data. The other five correlations indeed exist when the sample is enlarged. The $\epkk-E_γ$ correlation has a significantly lower intrinsic scatter compared to the other correlations. We divide the full data into four redshift bins when testing possible evolution of the correlations with redshift. We find no statistically significant evidence for the redshift evolution of the luminosity correlations. To avoid the circularity problem when constraining the cosmological parameters, we simultaneously minimize $χ^2$ with respect to both correlation parameters $a$, $b$ and the cosmological parameters using the maximum likelihood method. For the flat $Λ$CDM, the best fit is $\omm=0.31^{+0.13}_{-0.10}$. We also constrain the possible evolution of the equation of state (EOS) of the dark energy using the GRBs together with the Union2 compilation of SNe Ia and the $H(z)$ data. The result is consistent with the cosmological constant at $2 σ$ confidence level and mainly due to the GRB data, the dark energy EOS shows slight deviation from -1 at $z \geq0.5$ as was persistently presented with many previous data sets.

A Compact Urban High School for Over-the-Rhine (Cincinnati, Ohio)
Creators: name: Burgess, Paul Samuel
Publisher: name: University of Notre Dame
Year: 2023

description: As constitutive components of the city, educational institutions appropriately take their place within urban neighborhoods. Built in such locations, school buildings and campuses should serve not only their immediate academic communities but also the broader communities of their surrounding neighborhoods. Schools comprise such a range of typologies and uses that they are effectively microcosms of the city itself, and the portions of urban schools devoted to civic functions should be made available and accessible for the benefit of the general public when not in use by students. The architecture of a new school in an urban setting should be compatible with the character of its context while adding to this character through the creative but sensitive application of local and regional building traditions. Compatibility of infill demands meticulous attention to the detail -- not just the massing, scale and materials -- of a neighborhood's character-defining architecture. An urban high school may be constructed as a multi-building campus rather than a single building in order to accommodate the full program while respecting established patterns of urban form.

description: Aims: We aim to demonstrate that the Herschel ATLAS (H-ATLAS) is suitable for a blind and unbiased survey for debris disks by identifying candidate debris disks associated with main sequence stars in the initial science demonstration field of the survey. We show that H-ATLAS reveals a population of far-infrared/sub-mm sources that are associated with stars or star-like objects on the SDSS main-sequence locus. We validate our approach by comparing the properties of the most likely candidate disks to those of the known population. Methods: We use a photometric selection technique to identify main sequence stars in the SDSS DR7 catalogue and a Bayesian Likelihood Ratio method to identify H-ATLAS catalogue sources associated with these main sequence stars. Following this photometric selection we apply distance cuts to identify the most likely candidate debris disks and rule out the presence of contaminating galaxies using UKIDSS LAS K-band images. Results: We identify 78 H-ATLAS sources associated with SDSS point sources on the main-sequence locus, of which two are the most likely debris disk candidates: H-ATLAS J090315.8 and H-ATLAS J090240.2. We show that they are plausible candidates by comparing their properties to the known population of debris disks. Our initial results indicate that bright debris disks are rare, with only 2 candidates identified in a search sample of 851 stars. We also show that H-ATLAS can derive useful upper limits for debris disks associated with Hipparcos stars in the field and outline the future prospects for our debris disk search programme.

description: It is believed that Al-26, a short-lived (t1/2 = 0.73 Ma) and now extinct radionuclide, was uniformly distributed in the nascent Solar System with the initial Al-26/Al-27 ratio of ~5.2\times10-5, suggesting its external stellar origin. However, the stellar source of Al-26 and the manner in which it was injected into the solar system remain controversial: the Al-26 could have been produced by an asymptotic giant branch star, a supernova, or a Wolf-Rayet star and injected either into the protosolar molecular cloud or protoplanetary disk. Corundum (Al2O3) is thermodynamically predicted to be the first condensate from a cooling gas of solar composition. Here we show that micron-sized corundum condensates from O-16-rich gas (Big Delta O-17 ~ -25%) of solar composition recorded heterogeneous distribution of Al-26 at the birth of the solar system: the inferred initial Al-26/Al-27 ratio ranges from ~6.5x10-5 to <2x10-6; ~50% of the corundum grains measured are Al-26-poor. Other Al-26-poor, O-16-rich refractory objects include grossite (CaAl4O7)- and hibonite(CaAl12O19)-rich calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) in CH chondrites, platy hibonite crystals in CM chondrites, and FUN (fractionation and unidentified nuclear isotopic anomalies) CAIs in CV, CO, and CR chondrites. Considering the apparently early and short duration (<0.3 Ma) of condensation of refractory O-16-rich solids in the solar system, we infer that Al-26 was injected into the collapsing protosolar molecular cloud and later homogenized in the protoplanetary disk. The apparent lack of correlation between Al-26 abundance and O-isotope compositions of corundum grains put important constraints on the stellar source of Al-26 in the solar system.

Pediatric psychosocial evaluation in the emergency department

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2019

description: The American Academy of Pediatrics has prioritized standardizing psychosocial evaluation and screening interventions in the emergency department, to improve the detection and care of youth with identified or unrecognized mental health issues. Few standardized tools exist covering a range of issues and are designed and psychometrically evaluated for use in the emergency department. A digital evidence-based, clinically-informed youth psychosocial assessment and disposition guidance tool (HEARTSMSAP) was developed, addressing this need. A preliminary evaluation found the tool to have good predictive validity and interrater reliability among pediatric emergency clinicians. This research aimed to expand the use of the clinical HEARTSMAP tool beyond strictly the pediatric emergency clinician population, through two connected but separate investigations. In study one, HEARTSMAP’s interrater reliability was evaluated among different emergency clinician-types, working in diverse emergency settings (n=16). Clinicians displayed moderate to near-perfect interrater scoring agreement in applying HEARTSMAP to fictional vignettes, with weighted kappas on tool sections ranging from 0.46 (Professionals & resources; 95% CI: 0.40, 0.46) to 0.93 (Alcohol & drugs; 95% CI: 0.93-0.94). Study two was a multi-phase, multi-method study to adapt the clinical tool into a lay self-administered version for youth and families. First, focus groups were conducted in a community-based sample of youth and parents (n=38), to inform tool modification. Feedback focused on the need for MyHEARTSMAP to be approachable and interpretable for end-users, and evidence was found supporting the tool’s content and face validity. Second, community-based youth and parents applied the latest MyHEARTSMAP version to fictional vignettes. Participants reliably scored psychosocial issues using MyHEARTSMAP, displaying substantial to near-perfect interrater agreement on tool sections, with weighted kappas ranging from 0.76 (Professionals & resources; 95% CI: 0.73, 0.79) to 0.98 (Alcohol & drugs; 95% CI: 0.97-0.98). Together, these studies suggest that clinician- and self-administered psychosocial evaluation can be consistently conducted by diverse emergency clinicians, youth, and parents. Ongoing evaluations will assess HEARTSMAP’s impact on ED patient flow (e.g., length of stay, rate of return visit, rate of hospitalization), and MyHEARTSMAP’s interrater reliability and validity among emergency department visiting youth and families, in predicting ED disposition (discharge or admission) and clinician’s service referrals.

description: Normally one thinks of the motion of the planets around the Sun as a highly classical phenomenon, so that one can neglect quantum gravity in the Solar System. However, classical chaos in the planetary motion amplifies quantum uncertainties so that they become very large, giving huge quantum gravity effects. For example, evidence suggests that Uranus may eventually be ejected from the Solar System, but quantum uncertainties would make the direction at which it leaves almost entirely uncertain, and the time of its exit uncertain by about a billion billion years. For a time a billion billion years from now, there are huge quantum uncertainties whether Uranus will be within the Solar System, within the Galaxy, or even within causal contact of the Galaxy.

description: Between the years 1924-1934, Berlin dada artist Hannah Höch (1889-1978) created the collage series From an Ethnographic Museum. The work comprises twenty sheets with cut-out images of modern women’s bodies alongside African and Oceanic tribal objects. The result is a collection of small, ambiguous totemic-like figures. Through the series, Höch captures the landscape of the Weimar Republic, particularly the inseparability of primitivism and ethnography from the moment’s psychoanalytic discourse. This thesis argues in part that From an Ethnographic Museum grapples with the ways in which the discipline of psychoanalysis contributed to constructs of gender and race as monolithic Other. By analyzing several works from Höch’s series in detail, comparing them to various other dada and surrealist works, as well as exploring the connections between psychoanalysis, dada, gender, race, and ethnography in Berlin at the edge of the Second World War, I examine how From an Ethnographic Museum navigates its way through multiple discourses in new and jarring ways via the gesture of the “cut.” This thesis further traces the ways in which psychoanalysis gained a wide audience in Berlin. A close reading of From an Ethnographic Museum sheds light on the role of psychoanalytic discourse and ethnography at this tense historical moment, and how gender and race were perceived during the Weimar Republic. Rather than treating Höch’s aesthetic choices in her collages as distinct operations, the series, through the gestures of the cut, shows that political arrangements are not separate in their discourses from aesthetic ones.

description: The National Cybersecurity Strategy was released on March 1, 2023, in which the Biden administration committed to improving federal cybersecurity through the implementation of a zero trust architecture (ZTA) strategy and the modernization of information technology (IT) and operational technology (OT) infrastructure. In 2022, we hosted Zero Trust Industry Days, which featured keynote addresses; presentations from zero trust (ZT) vendors; a question-and-answer session; and panel discussions among experts from government and industry, and research leaders. During these discussions, participants identified ZT-related issues that could benefit from additional research. By focusing on these areas, organizations in government, academia, and industry can collaborate to develop solutions that streamline and accelerate ongoing ZTA transformation efforts. In this blog post, which is excerpted from a recently published white paper, we highlight eight potential research areas.

Integrable Henon-Heiles Hamiltonians: a Poisson algebra approach

description: The three integrable two-dimensional Henon-Heiles systems and their integrable perturbations are revisited. A family of new integrable perturbations is found, and N-dimensional completely integrable generalizations of all these systems are constructed by making use of sl(2,R)+h(3) as their underlying Poisson symmetry algebra. In general, the procedure here introduced can be applied in order to obtain N-dimensional integrable generalizations of any 2D integrable potential of the form V(q_1^2, q_2), and the formalism gives the explicit form of all the integrals of the motion. Further applications of this algebraic approach in different contexts are suggested.

description: The moduli space of k G-instantons on R^4 for a classical gauge group G is known to be given by the Higgs branch of a supersymmetric gauge theory that lives on Dp branes probing D(p + 4) branes in Type II theories. For p = 3, these (3 + 1) dimensional gauge theories have N = 2 supersymmetry and can be represented by quiver diagrams. The F and D term equations coincide with the ADHM construction. The Hilbert series of the moduli spaces of one instanton for classical gauge groups is easy to compute and turns out to take a particularly simple form which is previously unknown. This allows for a G invariant character expansion and hence easily generalisable for exceptional gauge groups, where an ADHM construction is not known. The conjectures for exceptional groups are further checked using some new techniques like sewing relations in Hilbert Series. This is applied to Argyres-Seiberg dualities.

description: As the Special Operations Command (SOCOM) commander, you are told that intelligence has discovered that an adversary has unexpected capabilities. Therefore, you need to reprioritize capabilities. You inform the program manager (PM) for your advanced aircraft platform that the lower priority capability for the whiz-bang software for sensor fusion that was on the roadmap 18 months from now will need to become the top priority and be delivered in the next six months. But the next two priorities are still important and are needed as close to the original dates (three months and nine months out) as possible.
 You need to know What options to provide the new capability and the next two priority capabilities (with reduced capability) can be provided without a change in staffing? How many more teams would need to be added to get the sensor-fusion software in the next six months and to stay on schedule for the other two capabilities? And what is the cost? In this blog post, excerpted and adapted from a recently published white paper, we explore the decisions that PMs make and information they need to confidently make decisions like these with the help of data that is available from DevSecOps pipelines.
Shaken, Not Stirred: The Disrupted Disk of the Starburst Galaxy NGC 253

description: Near-infrared images obtained with the CFHT WIRCam are used to investigate the recent history of the nearby Sculptor Group spiral NGC 253. The distribution of stars in the disk is lop-sided, in the sense that the projected density of AGB stars in the north east portion of the disk between 10 and 20 kpc from the galaxy center is ~ 0.5 dex higher than on the opposite side of the galaxy. With the exception of the central 2 kpc, the north east portion of the disk appears to have been the site of the highest levels of star-forming activity in the galaxy during the past ~ 0.1 Gyr. Diffuse stellar structures are found in the periphery of the disk, and the most prominent of these is to the south and east of the galaxy. Bright AGB stars are detected out to 15 kpc above the disk plane, and these are part of a diffusely distributed, flattened extraplanar component. Comparisons between observed and model luminosity functions suggest that the extraplanar regions contain stars that formed throughout much of the age of the Universe. It is suggested that the disk of NGC 253 was disrupted by a tidal encounter with a now defunct companion. The ages of the youngest extraplanar stars suggests that the event that produced the extraplanar population, and presumably induced the starburst, occured within the past ~ 0.2 Gyr.
