Polish judicial system

description: In Poland, during the German occupation (1939-1945), the Polish courts were one of the few institutions left in the hands of the Poles. Furthermore, they remained one of the rare physical areas where Poles and Jews could legally meet each other after the closure of ghettos. Because of the lack of involvement of Germans in this administrative sphere, the courts were a rare domain where Poles and Jews could continue to interact without any overt interference and control by the occupier. This dissertation aims to be an exploration of a new kind of document, namely the court records from the district of Warsaw (the Municipal Court of Otwock, the District Court of Siedlce and the Appellate court of Warsaw). This micro-analysis, made from a sample of cases from the above-mentioned courtrooms, seeks to give a new perspective to the study of relations between Jews and Poles during the war. Since people from different backgrounds found themselves at court and transacted with the Jews – police officers, judges, members of the court, to name but a few – the documents allow us to see different types of relations grouped here under three categories: administrative, legal and social. It highlights the communication channels between different levels of administration in Poland (members of the courts, lawyers, police officers, prison officials), and their influence regarding the Jewish lives. Using official Polish documents from the pre-war period – the March Constitution, the Criminal code and the code of procedure, criminal statistics, to name a few – and court documents for the first years of the war, this research seeks to demonstrate that prejudices, bias and anti-Semitic actions taken against the Jews were deeply rooted in Polish customs and identity, and were not, as the nationalistic historiography said, a consequence of the German occupation. In addition to the examination of relations between Poles and Jews, this research sheds new light on the issue of Jewish life and death during the 1939-1942 period. It highlights the difficulties experienced by Jews due to the evolution of German regulations. Since the court was open to everyone, the documents provide important information about Jews that do not appear in traditional historical sources. It is thus possible to trace the journey of these people remained until now in anonymity. The research helps to better understand the fate of the Jews before the onset of the “Final Solution” and, in many cases, it enables us to rethink the choices and challenges faced by the victims.

description: Background— There are anecdotal reports of blindness following epidural steroid injection attributed to retinalhemorrhages. We report a case with bilateral occipital hypoperfusion and blindness following epidural steroidinjection.Case Description— A 82-year-old woman developed acute onset bilateral vision loss in few hours after she un-derwent lumbar epidural steroid injections. A computed tomographic (CT) perfusion scan and angiography of braindemonstrated hypoperfusion of both occipital lobes without any arterial occlusion. Patient’s vision returned to nor-mal within 4th day of hospital admission. A repeat CT perfusion 4 days later demonstrated resolution of perfusionabnormalities.Conclusions— Our case demonstrates that vision loss after epidural steroid injection may be related to occipitalhypoperfusion.

description: In environmental governance, participatory modes of political decision-making and planning are becoming more prevalent. A rationalist model of governance would assume that instrumental rationales prevail in choosing participatory process designs. Some argue, however, that public policy-makers also follow administrative or governance ‘culture’. The concept of participatory governance culture assumes that historically grown institutional traditions, rationales and routines predetermine administrative practice. This paper empirically maps whether differences in participatory approaches can be explained by variation in participatory governance cultures. We study participatory governance in implementing the participatory provisions of three EU environmental directives in German federal states. Results indicate that although statutory requirements play a role in implementation process design, state-specific patterns can be observed. Studying participatory governance cultures seems viable to (1) enrich the theory of participatory planning through greater attention to governance cultures and to (2) offer an explanatory model on variation in implementation processes within one policy field.

description: The Southern Ocean is characterised by sparse ground-based and in-situ atmospheric measurements. While satellite measurements provide continuous spatial and temporal coverage, they are generally not capable of observing low-level clouds and the cloud base, which are critical for accurately modelling radiative transfer. Results from general circulation models show significant biases in outgoing shortwave radiation in this region, believed to be related to deficiencies in representation of clouds, aerosols or their interaction. As part of the Cloud and Aerosol project of the New Zealand Deep South Challenge (DSC) we collected and analysed cloud measurements from multiple shipborne and ground-based deployments of several meteorological instruments: ceilometer, lidar, micro rain radar, radio soundings, aerosol sensors, sky cameras and UAV-borne sensors. With this combination of instruments we hope to advance understanding of cloud processes in this region, quantify model error compared to observations and contribute to the modelling effort of the DSC. Currently we have collected observations from a ground-based deployment on Macquarie Island and multiple voyages: Aurora Australis, R/V Tangaroa, HMNZS Wellington and R/V Nathaniel B. Palmer. By incorporating data from these and planned future deployments we intend to produce a Southern Ocean dataset of atmospheric measurements available for general use. This presentation will provide an overview of our progress and results.

description: To determine the appropriateness of empiric antibiotic therapy and the possible benefit of adding short-course gentamicin in septic shock patients with abdominal, urogenital, or an unknown focus. Secondary objectives were the effect of gentamicin addition on shock reversal and the incidence of a fungal infection. Microbiological cultures, antibiotic treatment, and antibiotic resistance patterns of the cultured microorganisms were recorded during the first 5 days of admission. Inappropriate antibiotic therapy was defined as a prescription within the first 24 h that did not cover cultured bacteria during the first 5 days of admission and was determined in the overall group and in patients receiving adjunctive gentamicin (combination therapy) versus patients receiving monotherapy. Binomial logistic regression analysis was used to investigate the association of gentamicin addition with shock reversal. Of 203 septic shock patients, with abdominal (n = 143), urogenital (n = 27) or unknown (n = 33) focus, 115 patients received monotherapy, and 88 patients received combination therapy. Inappropriate therapy occurred in 29 patients (14%), more frequently in monotherapy (17%) versus combination therapy (10%). Combination therapy would have been effective in 55% of patients with inappropriate monotherapy. We found no association between gentamicin addition and shock reversal (p = .223). A fungal infection was present in 22 patients (11%). Inappropriate empirical antibiotic therapy occurs in 17% of septic shock patients receiving monotherapy. In 55% of these patients, additional gentamicin would have resulted in appropriate therapy. When clinical course is unfavourable, lowering the threshold for administering adjunctive aminoglycoside and antifungal therapy should be considered.

description: We report experimental results of the effect of Ka-band microwave on the spin dynamics of electrons in a 2D electron system in a GaAs/Al0.35Ga0.65As heterostructure, via time-resolved Kerr rotation measurements. While the microwave reduces the transverse spin lifetime of the bulk GaAs when its frequency is close to the Zeeman splitting of the electrons in the magnetic field, it significantly increases that of electrons in the 2D electron system, from 745 ps to 1213 ps. Such a microwave-enhanced spin lifetime is ascribed to the microwave-induced electron scattering which leads to a motional narrowing of spins via DP mechanism.
MANIFESTATION OF VIRAL AND INFECTION COMPLICATIONS

description: A variety of respiratory viruses infect every person many times throughout life and are a risk factor for the development of bacterial complications. The most dangerous among the causative agents of acute respiratory viral diseases is the influenza A virus, which can cause catastrophic pandemics, the high mortality rate of which is largely due to secondary bacterial pneumonia. Numerous studies in recent years have shown that, regardless of the type of respiratory virus, the main mechanism for provoking bacterial infections is an unbalanced response of the innate antiviral immune system - an excessive interferon response and uncontrolled inflammation.

description: Neste estudo, com base nos principais escritos políticos de D. Frei Álvaro Pais O. Min. (c. 1270- c.1350) analisamos sua concepção a respeito da origem ou causa eficiente do poder espiritual e, igualmente, seu pensamento no tocante à finalidade ou causa final do referido poder. Quanto ao primeiro tópico, o Bispo de Silves quer principalmente refutar algumas das teses de Marsílio de Pádua contidas na 2ª Parte do seu Defensor da Paz, completamente opostas à teologia do sacerdócio católico e seus graus hierárquicos e à do Primado Petrino. Para tanto, quase literalmente, haure-se, entre outras fontes, particularmente no De regimine christiano (1301) de Tiago de Viterbo OSA. Com respeito à finalidade do poder sacerdotal, de um lado, Álvaro sustenta a doutrina tradicional da Igreja a seu respeito e, de outro, em conseqüência, como partidário da hierocracia, defende a tese de que na, Societas Christiana, os detentores do poder espiritual, particularmente o Sumo Pontífice, ocupam uma posição mais eminente em relação aos governantes seculares.

description: The most popular method to construct initial data for black-hole-binary simulations is the puncture method, in which compactified wormholes are given linear and angular momentum via the Bowen-York extrinsic curvature. When these data are evolved, they quickly approach a ``trumpet'' topology, suggesting that it would be preferable to use data that are in trumpet form from the outset. To achieve this, we extend the puncture method to allow the construction of Bowen-York trumpets, including an outline of an existence and uniqueness proof of the solutions. We construct boosted, spinning and binary Bowen-York puncture trumpets using a single-domain pseudospectral elliptic solver, and evolve the binary data and compare with standard wormhole-data results. We also show that for boosted trumpets the black-hole mass can be prescribed {\it a priori}, without recourse to the iterative procedure that is necessary for wormhole data.

description: We discuss the formation of molecular oxygen in ultracold collisions between hydroxyl radicals and atomic oxygen. A time-independent quantum formalism based on hyperspherical coordinates is employed for the calculations. Elastic, inelastic and reactive cross sections as well as the vibrational and rotational populations of the product O2 molecules are reported. A J-shifting approximation is used to compute the rate coefficients. At temperatures T = 10 - 100 mK for which the OH molecules have been cooled and trapped experimentally, the elastic and reactive rate coefficients are of comparable magnitude, while at colder temperatures, T < 1 mK, the formation of molecular oxygen becomes the dominant pathway. The validity of a classical capture model to describe cold collisions of OH and O is also discussed. While very good agreement is found between classical and quantum results at T=0.3 K, at higher temperatures, the quantum calculations predict a larger rate coefficient than the classical model, in agreement with experimental data for the O + OH reaction. The zero-temperature limiting value of the rate coefficient is predicted to be about 6.10^{-12} cm^3 molecule^{-1} s^{-1}, a value comparable to that of barrierless alkali-metal atom - dimer systems and about a factor of five larger than that of the tunneling dominated F + H2 reaction.

description: An atom in open space can be detected by means of resonant absorption and reemission of electromagnetic waves, known as resonance fluorescence, which is a fundamental phenomenon of quantum optics. We report on the observation of scattering of propagating waves by a single artificial atom. The behavior of the artificial atom, a superconducting macroscopic two-level system, is in a quantitative agreement with the predictions of quantum optics for a pointlike scatterer interacting with the electromagnetic field in one-dimensional open space. The strong atom-field interaction as revealed in a high degree of extinction of propagating waves will allow applications of controllable artificial atoms in quantum optics and photonics.

Final state interactions in the reactions He3(He3,2p)He4 and T(He3,np)He4
Creators: name: Blackmore, Ewart William
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Final state interactions in the p-p and p-n systems corresponding to the formation of the singlet states of the di-proton and the deuteron have been observed in the reactions He³(He³,2p)He⁴ and T(He³,np)He⁴, by measuring the energy spectra of two of the final state particles detected in coincidence. These interactions appear as regions of high density of events along the kinematic contours in two dimensional energy space. Both p-p and p-He⁴ coincidences from the reaction He³(He³,2p)He⁴ and p-He⁴ coincidences from the reaction T(He³,np)He⁴ were studied. The dominant mechanism producing the three particle final states was found to be the sequential breakup through the states of Li⁵ and He⁵, in agreement with the results of previous experiments. The interaction between the two nucleons affects the distribution of coincidence events only in the region of two dimensional energy space corresponding to a breakup in which the two nucleons emerge with low relative energy. The relative contributions of the different processes in the reaction He³(He³,2p)He⁴ was determined for incident He³ energies from 1.15 MeV to 5.0 MeV. It was found that the nucleon-nucleon interaction becomes less important as the incident energy increases. The validity of two approximate theories of final state interactions, the Watson theory and the Phillips, Griffy and Biedenharn density of states formalism, was checked by comparing their predictions with the observed energy spectra.

description: Experiments on underdoped cuprate superconductors suggest an intricate relation between the normal-state Nernst effect and stripe order: The Nernst signal appears enhanced near 1/8 hole doping and its onset temperature scales with the stripe-ordering temperature over some range of doping. Here, we employ a phenomenological quasiparticle model to calculate the normal state Nernst signal in the presence of stripe order. We find that Fermi pockets caused by translational symmetry breaking lead to a strongly enhanced Nernst signal with a sign depending on the modulation period of the ordered state and other details of the Fermi surface. This implies differences between antiferromagnetic and charge-only stripes We compare our findings with recent data from Nd-LSCO and YBCO.

description: We develop a deep convolutional neural network for determination of cloud types in low-resolution daily mean top-of-atmosphere shortwave and longwave radiation images, corresponding to the classical cloud types recorded by human observers in the Global Telecommunication System. We train this network on the CERES top of atmosphere radiation dataset, and apply this network on the CMIP6 abrupt-4xCO2 model output to determine long-term change in cloud type occurrence in these models with increasing CO2 concentration. We contrast these results with corresponding cloud type change in historical satellite measurements. The proposed neural network approach is broadly applicable for model, reanalysis and satellite imagery evaluation because it does not require high resolution and corresponds to the cloud types commonly recorded at weather stations worldwide.

Nuclear magnetic resonance in single crystals of tin and cadmium.
Creators: name: Sharma, Surendra Nath
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: A systematic study of the Knight shift parameters has been carried out on single crystal specimens of tin and cadmium over a range from 1⁰ K to just below the melting points. The line widths observed in cadmium are approximately half the widths quoted by other workers, enabling more precise measurements to be made. These measurements show that the anisotropy of the Knight shift in cadmium changes sign between 4⁰ K and 77⁰ K. Pronounced changes in the Knight shift parameters are observed upon alloying cadmium with mercury. The temperature dependence of the isotropic Knight shift in tin can be explained by the volume effects and the phonon contributions when the temperature exceeds the Debye temperature. Comparing the temperature dependence data with pressure dependence results of other workers the explicit temperature dependence is extracted. It appears that the variation in the anisotropy of the Knight shift above the Debye temperature is largely caused by a change in lattice parameters, specifically a change in c/a ratio. Measurements of the line width at helium temperature in isotopically pure Sn¹¹⁹ and the same isotope in natural tin as a function of crystal orientation are reported. Second moments for the different crystal orientations have been computed. Analysis of the isotopically pure tin data leads to an evaluation of relative contributions, from the various shells, to the pseudo-dipolar interaction. For the isotopically pure tin, the measurements at the helium and room temperatures enable an evaluation of the spin-lattice relaxation time, T₁. T₁T is constant over the temperature range and closely isotropic.

description: In a dense cloud of massive fermions interacting by exchange of a light scalar field, the effective mass of the fermion can become negligibly small. As the cloud expands, the effective mass and the total energy density eventually increase with decreasing density. In this regime, the pressure-density relation can approximate that required for dark energy. We apply this phenomenon to the expansion of the Universe with a very light scalar field and infer relations between the parameters available and cosmological observations. Majorana neutrinos at a mass that may have been recently determined, and fermions such as the Lightest Supersymmetric Particle (LSP) may both be consistent with current observations of dark energy.

description: The inelastic x-ray scattering spectrum for phonons of $Δ_{1}$-symmetry including the CuO bond-stretching phonon dispersion is analyzed by a Lorentz fit in HgBa$_{2}$CuO$_{4}$ and Bi$_{2}$Sr$_{2}$CuO$_{6}$, respectively, using recently calculated phonon frequencies as input parameters. The resulting mode frequencies of the fit are almost all in good agreement with the calculated data. An exception is the second highest $Δ_{1}$-branch compromising the bond-stretching modes which disagrees in both compounds with the calculations. This branch unlike the calculations shows an anomalous softening with a minimum around the wavevector $\vc{q}=\frac{2π}{a}(0.25, 0, 0)$. Such a disparity with the calculated results, that are based on the assumption of an undisturbed translation- and point group invariant electronic structure of the CuO plane, indicates some {\it static} charge inhomogenities in the measured probes. Most likely these will be charge stripes along the CuO bonds which have the strongest coupling to certain longitudinal bond-stretching modes that in turn selfconsistently induce corresponding {\it dynamic} charge inhomogenities. The symmetry breaking by the mix of dynamic and static charge inhomogenities can lead to a reconstruction of the Fermi surface into small pockets.

Machine learning of cloud types for evaluation of climate models and constraining climate sensitivity

Year: 2021

description: We develop a deep convolutional neural network for determination of cloud types in low-resolution daily mean top-of-atmosphere shortwave and longwave radiation images, corresponding to the classical cloud types recorded by human observers in the Global Telecommunication System. We train this network on the CERES top of atmosphere radiation dataset, and apply this network on the CMIP6 aburpt-4xCO2 model output to determine long-term change in cloud type occurrence in these models with increasing CO2 concentration. We contrast these results with corresponding cloud type change in historical satellite measurements. The proposed neural network approach is broadly applicable for model, reanalysis and satellite imagery evaluation because it does not require high resolution and corresponds to the cloud types commonly recorded at weather stations worldwide.

description: Recent observations of cosmic ray electrons from several instruments have revealed various degrees of deviation in the measured electron energy distribution from a simple power-law, in a form of an excess around TeV energies. An even more prominent deviation has been observed in the fraction of cosmic ray positrons around 100 GeV energies. In this paper we show that the observed excesses in the electron spectrum may be easily re-produced without invoking any unusual sources other than the general diffuse Galactic components of cosmic rays. The primary physical effect involved is the Klein-Nishina suppression of the electron cooling rate around TeV energies. With a very reasonable choice of the model parameters characterizing the local interstellar medium, we can reproduce the most recent observations by Fermi and HESS experiments. We also find that high positron fraction increasing with energy, as claimed by the PAMELA experiment, cannot be explained in our model with the conservative set of the model parameters. We are able, however, to reproduce the PAMELA results assuming high values of the starlight and interstellar gas densities, which would be more appropriate for vicinities of supernova remnants. A possible solution to this problem may be that cosmic rays undergo most of their interactions near their sources due to the efficient trapping in the far upstream of supernova shocks by self-generated, cosmic ray-driven turbulence.

description: The dynamical property of the Tsallis distribution is studied from a Fokker-Planck equation. For the Langevin dynamical system with an arbitrary potential function, Markovian friction and Gaussian white noise, we show that no possible nonequilibrium dynamics can use the Tsallis distribution for the statistical description. The current form of the Tsallis distribution stands for a simple isothermal situation with no friction and no noise.

The 'Resource Curse' in Timor-Leste
Creators: name: Scheiner, Charles
Publisher: name: Canberra, ACT : Coral Bell School of Asia Pacific Affairs, College of Asia and the Pacific, The Australian National University
Year: 2014

description: Timor-Leste is one of the world’s most petroleumexport- dependent countries. Although petroleum revenues and savings benefit many citizens, they also distort economics, public finances, politics and personal behaviour. The phrase ‘resource curse’ is often used to describe how people in nearly every nation which depends on exporting non-renewable resources become worse off than people not ‘blessed’ with mineral and oil wealth. This In Brief describes how the ‘resource curse’ will lead to devastating consequences in Timor- Leste unless the state moves quickly to diversify and strengthen the non-oil economy. It is based on analysis by La’o Hamutuk, a civil society organisation which has researched policies and outcomes in Timor-Leste since 2000.1

Productivity Analysis

description: Excerpt from the report Summary: The findings of the analysis presented in this report indicate that the present productive capacity of agriculture is sufficient to meet the projected 1975 needs of the United States population for food and fiber and to provide for a relatively high level of exports, at the same or lower relative prices than in 1951-53. This conclusion assumes that the research and extension efforts required to achieve and maintain per acre yields at the projected attainable levels will be forthcoming.

Magnetic operator groups of an electron in a crystal
Creators: name: Tam, Wing Gay
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: In this thesis the problem of an electron in a crystal in the presence of a uniform magnetic field is investigated using group theory method. A group of operators [ symbol omitted ] commuting with the Hamiltonian of an electron in the presence of a uniform magnetic field and a crystal electric potential is constructed. This group is homomorphic to the group [ symbol omitted ] (a magnetic space group) of space time transformations that leave the magnetic field and the crystal electric potential invariant. The property of the subgroup [ symbol omitted ] of [ symbol omitted ] that under the above homomorphism is mapped onto the lattice [ symbol omitted ] of [ symbol omitted ] is studied in detail. It turns out the structure of [ symbol omitted ] depends on the magnitude and the orientation of the magnetic field, so that, in fact one has to deal with an infinite class of groups. In particular, it is useful to divide this infinite class of groups into two subclasses: one subclass is then referred to as corresponding to "rational" magnetic fields, the other as corresponding to "irrational" magnetic field. The group [ symbol omitted ] is a generalisation of the "magnetic translation group" recently introduced by Zak for the special case of a symmetric gauge. He also constructed "physical" irreducible representations of the "magnetic translation group" for the special case of a "rational" magnetic field. In this case a group [ symbol omitted ] always has a maximal Abelian subgroup with a finite index. (The term "physical" representation simply means a representation which can be generated by functions of spatial coordinates.) In this thesis no such restriction is introduced: the "physical" irreducible representations of [ symbol omitted ] are also constructed for the case of irrational magnetic field, in which case the index of a maximal Abelian subgroup is always infinite; the "physical" irreducible representations are then always infinite dimensional. Using a complete set of Landau functions the basis functions generating "physical" irreducible representations of [ symbol omitted ] are found for the special case when the crystal is simple cubic and the magnetic field is parallel to a lattice vector. It turns out when the field is "irrational" the basis functions are countably infinite sets of Landau functions, and the energy spectrum depends only on one of the parameters labelling the "physical" irreducible representations of [ symbol omitted ]. The problem of perturbation produced by a weak periodic potential on the Landau levels for a free electron in a magnetic field is also considered. In this connection we make plausible the validity of certain quite general selection rules for an arbitrary periodic potential.

description: We present very low temperature Scanning Tunneling Microscopy and Spectroscopy (STM/S) measurements of a W based amorphous thin film grown with focused-ion-beam. In particular, we address the superconducting properties close to the border, where the thickness of the superconducting film decreases, and the Au substrate emerges. When approaching the Au substrate, the superconducting tunneling conductance strongly increases around the Fermi level, and the quasiparticle peaks do not significantly change its position. Under magnetic fields, the vortex lattice is observed, with vortices positioned very close to the Au substrate.
