description: The Value of Play in Higher Education
 I am delighted to be able to share with you my free book and supporting documentation on The Value of Play in Higher Education (2019-2022)
 This study was an investigation into play-based and playful approaches to learning in across all disciplines in higher education. It had specific interests strands relating to the teaching of management theory and concepts and value systems attached to play. You can download the book via the link at the bottom of this page, but in case you want to know a bit more about it first, here’s a quick introduction to its purpose and content.
 In The Value of Play in HE: A Study I try to marry playful design and expression with scholarly intent. I draw on the input from participants in over 20 countries, 120 of whom filled out surveys and 65 of whom engaged in semi structured interviews. They came from over 70 different academic subject areas and helped generated over 300 different examples of play. I am indebted to them all, and to everyone else who contributed in some way.
 With them (and you, dear possible reader) we go through the literature and practices of play in general and in HE in particular, illustrated with great numbers of vignettes of play, some visuals and plenty of discussion. I reflect on cultural difference and play, what gets in the way of play, what helps it thrive, and where playful HE can go to next. Oh and we look at survival, mental health and wellbeing while we are at it. It represents the culmination of three years talking, exploring, reading, playing, questioning, and saying hmmmmmm a lot.
 In its 350 or so pages you will also find why and how I went about conducting the study, stories of how educators are championing the cause of play in HE while also wrestling with its challenges and contradictions. I muse on different theoretical positions on play, with particular attention paid to Brian Sutton-Smith’s Seven Rhetorics of Play. As a result, there is a whopping great reading list and plenty of embedded links if you want to travel down your own personal rabbit holes of enquiry. In it I play gently with academic conventions as I, and contributors, question why we do things the way we do in academia, and what might happen if we did things differently.

description: Bearing the thermodynamic arguments together with the two definitions of mass in mind, we try to find metrics with spherical symmetry. We consider the adiabatic condition along with the Gong-Wang mass, and evaluate the $g_{rr}$ element which points to a null hypersurface. In addition, we generalize the thermodynamics laws to this hypersurface to find its temperature and thus the corresponding surface gravity which enables us to get a relation for the $g_{tt}$ element. Moreover, we investigate the mathematical and physical properties of the discovered metric in the Einstein relativity framework which shows that the primary mentioned null hypersurface is an event horizon. The obtained energy-momentum tensor equals the energy-momentum tensor of a polytropic black hole embedded into an anti-de Sitter background. We also show that if one considers the Misner-Sharp mass in the calculations, the Schwarzschild metric will be got. The relationship between the two mass definitions in each metric is studied. The results of considering the geometrical surface gravity are also addressed. Our investigation shows that the geometrical surface gravity's definition is not always compatible with the validity of the first law of thermodynamics on the horizons of spherically symmetric static metrics.

description: If the inflaton field is coupled to the hypercharge Chern-Simons density $F\tilde F$, an explosive production of helical gauge fields when inflation ends can trigger baryogenesis at the electroweak phase transition. Besides, Higgs inflation identifies the inflaton with the Higgs field $\mathcal H$, thus relating cosmological observables to properties of electroweak physics. In this paper we merge both approaches: the helical gauge fields are produced at the end of Higgs inflation from the coupling $|\mathcal H|^2 F\tilde F$. In the metric formulation of gravity we found a window in the parameter space for electroweak baryogenesis consistent with all experimental observations. Conversely, for the Palatini formalism the non-gaussianity bounds strongly constrain the helicity produced at the end of inflation, forbidding an efficient baryogenesis.

description: A shadow molecular dynamics scheme for flexible charge models is presented, where the shadow Born-Oppenheimer potential is derived from a coarse-grained approximation of range-separated density functional theory. The interatomic potential, including the atomic electronegativities and the charge-independent short-range part of the potential and force terms, are modeled by the linear atomic cluster expansion (ACE), which provides a computationally efficient alternative to many machine learning methods. The shadow molecular dynamics scheme is based on extended Lagrangian (XL) Born-Oppenheimer molecular dynamics (BOMD) [Eur. Phys. J. B 94, 164 (2021)]. XL-BOMD provides a stable dynamics, while avoiding the costly computational overhead associated with solving an all-to-all system of equations, which normally is required to determine the relaxed electronic ground state prior to each force evaluation. To demonstrate the proposed shadow molecular dynamics scheme for flexible charge models using the atomic cluster expansion, we emulate the dynamics generated from self-consistent charge density functional tight-binding (SCC-DFTB) theory using a second-order charge equilibration (QEq) model. The charge-independent potentials and electronegativities of the QEq model are trained for a supercell of uranium oxide (UO2) and a molecular system of liquid water. The combined ACE + XL-QEq dynamics are stable over a wide range of temperatures both for the oxide and the molecular systems, and provide a precise sampling of the Born-Oppenheimer potential energy surfaces. Accurate ground Coulomb energies are produced by the ACE-based electronegativity model during an NVE simulation of UO2, predicted to be within 1 meV of those from SCC-DFTB on average during comparable simulations.

description: The multihadron production in nucleus-nucleus collisions and its interrelation with that in (anti)proton-proton interactions are studied by exploring the charged particle mean multiplicity collision-energy and centrality dependencies in the measurements to date. The study is performed in the framework of the recently proposed effective-energy approach which, under the proper scaling of the collision energy, combines the constituent quark picture with Landau relativistic hydrodynamics counting for the centrality-defined effective energy of participants and relating different types of collisions. Within this approach, the multiplicity energy dependence and the pseudorapidity spectra from the most central nuclear collisions are well reproduced. The study of the multiplicity centrality dependence reveals a new scaling between the measured pseudorapidity spectra and the calculations. By means of this scaling, called the energy balanced limiting fragmentation scaling, one reproduces the pseudorapidity spectra for all centralities. The scaling elucidates some differences in the multiplicity and midrapidity density centrality dependence obtained at RHIC and LHC. These findings reveal an inherent similarity in the multiplicity energy dependence from the most central collisions and centrality data. A new regime in heavy-ion collisions to occur at about a TeV energy is indicated, similar to that observed in the earlier studies of the midrapidity densities. Predictions are made for the mean multiplicities to be measured in proton-proton and heavy-ion collisions at the LHC.

description: The high temperature magnetic order in SrRu$_2$O$_6$ was studied by measuring magnetization and neutron powder diffraction with both polarized and unpolarized neutrons. SrRu$_2$O$_6$ crystallizes into the hexagonal lead antimonate (PbSb$_2$O$_6$, space group \textit{P}$\overline{3}$1\textit{m}) structure with layers of edge-sharing RuO$_6$ octahedra separated by Sr$^{2+}$ ions. SrRu$_2$O$_6$ orders at $T_N$=565\,K with Ru moments coupled antiferromagnetically both in-plane and out-of-plane. The magnetic moment is 1.30(2) $μ_\mathrm{B}$/Ru at room temperature and is along the crystallographic \textit{c}-axis in the G-type magnetic structure. We performed density functional calculations with constrained RPA to obtain the electronic structure and effective intra- and inter-orbital interaction parameters. The projected density of states show strong hybridization between Ru 4$d$ and O 2$p$. By downfolding to the target $t_{2g}$ bands we extracted the effective magnetic Hamiltonian. We performed Monte Carlo simulations to determine the transition temperature as a function of inter- and intra-plane couplings and find weak inter plane coupling, 3\% of the intra-plane coupling, permits three dimensional magnetic order at $T_N$. As suggested by the magnetic susceptibility, two-dimensional correlations persist above $T_N$ due to the strong intra-plane coupling.

description: We study the dynamics of an 'electric' $\mathcal{N}=1$ 3D $U(N_c)_{k,k+\frac{N_c}{2}}$ SQCD theory. By embedding the theory in string theory, we propose that the theory admits a 'magnetic' dual and analyse the low energy dynamics of the theory using its dual. When $\frac{N_f}{2} \ge\frac{N_c}{2}-k$ the IR dynamics is described by either a TQFT for large quark masses, or a Grassmanian and a Wess-Zumino (WZ) term for small masses. We also consider non-supersymmetric mass deformations and RG flows in the vicinity of the SUSY point and find agreement between the IR of the electric and its magnetic dual. When $\frac{N_f}{2} < \frac{N_c}{2}-k$ supersymmetry is broken and the IR dynamics is a described by a TQFT accompanied by a Goldstino. We also discuss SQCD theories based on $SO$/$USp$ gauge groups.

description: Nutritional and developmental insults in the first few years of life have profound public health implications, including substantial contributions to neonatal, infant, and early childhood morbidity and mortality, as well as longer term impacts on cognitive development, school achievement, and worker productivity. Optimal development that can lead to the attainment of the individual's fullest potential therefore requires a combination of genetic capacity, adequate nutrition, psychosocial stimulation, and safe, clean physical environments. Researchers and policymakers have called for integrated child nutrition and development interventions for more than twenty years, yet there are only a handful of efficacy trials and even fewer examples of integrated interventions that have been taken to scale. While a critical component to the design of such interventions is formative research, there is a dearth of information in both the literature and policy arenas to guide this phase of the process. To move the field forward, this paper first provides an overview of formative research methods with a focus on qualitative inquiry, a description of the critical domains to be assessed (infant and young child feeding, responsive feeding, and child development), and currently available resources. Application of these methods is provided through a real-world case study—the design of an integrated nutrition and child development efficacy trial in Andhra Pradesh, India. Recommendations for next steps are discussed, the most important of which is the need for a comprehensive set of formative guidelines for designing locally tailored, culturally appropriate integrated interventions.

Coupling dark energy to dark matter inhomogeneities

description: We propose that dark energy in the form of a scalar field could effectively couple to dark matter inhomogeneities. Through this coupling energy could be transferred to/from the scalar field, which could possibly enter an accelerated regime. Though phenomenological, this scenario is interesting as it provides a natural trigger for the onset of the acceleration of the universe, since dark energy starts driving the expansion of the universe when matter inhomogeneities become sufficiently strong. Here we study a possible realization of this idea by coupling dark energy to dark matter via the linear growth function of matter perturbations. The numerical results show that it is indeed possible to obtain a viable cosmology with the expected series of radiation, matter and dark-energy dominated eras. In particular, the current density of dark energy is given by the value of the coupling parameters rather than by very special initial conditions for the scalar field. In other words, this model - unlike standard models of cosmic late acceleration - does not suffer from the so-called "coincidence problem" and its related fine tuning of initial conditions.

Sewage pollution: mitigation is key for coral reef stewardship
Creators: name: Thurber, Rebecca Vega
name: Wear, Stephanie L.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2015

description: Coral reefs are in decline worldwide, and land-derived sources of pollution, including sewage, are a major force driving that deterioration. This review presents evidence that sewage discharge occurs in waters surrounding at least 104 of 112 reef geographies. Studies often refer to sewage as a single stressor. However, we show that it is more accurately characterized as a multiple stressor. Many of the individual agents found within sewage, specifically freshwater, inorganic nutrients, pathogens, endocrine disrupters, suspended solids, sediments, and heavy metals, can severely impair coral growth and/or reproduction. These components of sewage may interact with each other to create as-yet poorly understood synergisms (e.g., nutrients facilitate pathogen growth), and escalate impacts of other, non-sewage-based stressors. Surprisingly few published studies have examined impacts of sewage in the field, but those that have suggest negative effects on coral reefs. Because sewage discharge proximal to sensitive coral reefs is widespread across the tropics, it is imperative for coral reef-focused institutions to increase investment in threat-abatement strategies for mitigating sewage pollution.
Strong decays of the low-lying $1P$- and $1D$-wave $Σ_c$ baryons

description: In this work, we systematically study the OZI-allowed two-body strong decay properties of $1P$- and $1D$-wave $Σ_c$ baryons within the $j $-$j$ coupling scheme in the framework of the quark pair creation model. For a comparison, we also give the predictions of the chiral quark model. Some model dependencies can be found in the predictions of two models. The calculations indicate that: (i) The $1P$-wave $λ$-mode $Σ_c$ states most likely to be relatively narrow states with a width of $Γ<80$ MeV. Their main decay channels are $Λ_cπ$, or $Σ_cπ$, or $Σ_c^*π$. The $1P$-wave $ρ$-mode states most might be broad states with a width of $Γ\sim 100-200$ MeV. They dominantly decay into $Σ_cπ$ and $Σ_c^*π$ channels. Some evidences of these $1P$-wave states are most likely to be observed in the $Λ_cπ$ and $Λ_cππ$ invariant mass spectra around the energy range of $2.75-2.95$ GeV. (ii) The $1D$-wave $λ$-mode $Σ_c$ excitations may be moderate states with a width of about dozens of MeV. The $1D$-wave $λ$-mode states mainly decay into the $1P$-wave charmed baryon via the pionic decay processes. Meanwhile, several $1D$-wave $λ$-mode states have significant decay rates into $DN$ or $D^*N$. Hence, the $DN$ and $D^*N$ are likely to be interesting channels for experimental exploration. (iii) Furthermore, the two $1D$-wave $ρ$-mode excitations $Σ_c|J^P=5/2^+,3\rangle_{ρρ}$ and $|J^P=7/2^+,3\rangle_{ρρ}$ are most likely to be fairly narrow state with a width of dozens of MeV, and they mainly decay into $Λ_cπ$. Some evidences of them might be observed in the $Λ_cπ$ invariant mass spectra around the energy range of $3.1-3.2$ GeV.

description: Accurate segregation of duplicated chromosomes ensures that daughter cells get one and only one copy of each chromosome. Errors in chromosome segregation result in aneuploidy and have severe consequences on human health. Incorrect chromosome number and chromosomal instability are hallmarks of tumor cells. Hence, segregation errors are thought to be a major cause of tumorigenesis. A study of the physical mechanical basis of chromosome segregation is essential to understand the processes that can lead to errors. Tremendous progress has been made in recent years in identifying the proteins necessary for chromosome movement and segregation, but the mechanism and structure of critical force generating components and the molecular basis of centromere stiffness remain poorly understood.

description: We derive an analytic expression for the height correlation function of a rough surface based on the inverse wave scattering method of Kirchhoff theory. The expression directly relates the height correlation function to diffuse scattered intensity along a linear path at fixed polar angle. We test the solution by measuring the angular distribution of light scattered from rough silicon surfaces, and comparing extracted height correlation functions to those derived from atomic force microscopy (AFM). The results agree closely with AFM over a wider range of roughness parameters than previous formulations of the inverse scattering problem, while relying less on large-angle scatter data. Our expression thus provides an accurate analytical equation for the height correlation function of a wide range of surfaces based on measurements using a simple, fast experimental procedure.

Centromeric Heterochromatin: The Primordial Segregation Machine
Creators: name: Bloom, Kerry S.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2014

description: Centromeres are specialized domains of heterochromatin that provide the foundation for the kinetochore. Centromeric heterochromatin is characterized by specific histone modifications, a centromere-specific histone H3 variant (CENP-A), and the enrichment of cohesin, condensin, and topo-isomerase II. Centromere DNA varies orders of magnitude in size from 125 bp (budding yeast) to several megabases (human). In metaphase, sister kinetochores on the surface of replicated chromosomes face away from each other, where they establish microtubule attachment and bi-orientation. Despite the disparity in centromere size, the distance between separated sister kinetochores is remarkably conserved (approximately 1 μm) throughout phylogeny. The centromere functions as a molecular spring that resists microtubule-based extensional forces in mitosis. This review explores the physical properties of DNA in order to understand how the molecular spring is built and how it contributes to the fidelity of chromosome segregation.
Dynamics of rapidly spinning blob-filaments: fluid theory with a parallel kinetic extension

description: Blob-filaments (or simply 'blobs') are coherent structures formed by turbulence and sustained by nonlinear processes in the edge and scrape-off layer (SOL) of tokamaks and other magnetically confined plasmas. The dynamics of these blob-filaments, in particular their radial motion, can influence the scrape-off layer width and plasma interactions with both the divertor target and with the main chamber walls. Motivated by recent results from the XGC1 gyrokinetic simulation code reported on elsewhere [J. Cheng et al. submitted to Nucl. Fusion and available at arXiv:2302.02877v1], a theory of rapidly spinning blob-filaments has been developed. The theory treats blob filaments in the closed flux surface region or the region that is disconnected from sheaths in the SOL. It extends previous work by treating blob spin, arising from partially or fully adiabatic electrons, as the leading order effect and retaining inertial (ion charge polarization) physics in next order. Spin helps to maintain blob coherency and affects the blob's propagation speed. Dipole charge polarization, treated perturbatively, gives rise to blob-filaments with relatively slow radial velocity, comparable to that observed in the simulations. The theory also treats the interaction of rapidly spinning blob filaments with a zonal flow layer. It is shown analytically that the flow layer can act like a transport barrier for these structures. Finally parallel electron kinetic effects are incorporated into the theory. Various asymptotic parameter regimes are discussed and asymptotic expressions for the radial and poloidal motion of the blob-filaments are obtained.

description: We prove that if an analytic subset $A$ of a linear metric space $X$ is not contained in a $σZ_ω$-subset of $X$ then for every Polish convex set $K$ with dense affine hull in $X$ the sum $A+K$ is non-meager in $X$ and the sets $A+A+K$ and $A-A+K$ have non-empty interior in the completion $\bar X$ of $X$. This implies two results: (i) an analytic subgroup $A$ of a linear metric space $X$ is a $σZ_ω$-space if $A$ is not Polish and $A$ contains a Polish convex set $K$ with dense affine hull in $X$; (ii) a dense convex analytic subset $A$ of a linear metric space $X$ is a $σZ_ω$-space if $A$ contains no open Polish subspace and $A$ contains a Polish convex set $K$ with dense affine hull in $X$.

description: Thrombospondin-1 (TSP-1), a potent antiangiogenic agent, is increasingly expressed in mice brain tissues after traumatic brain injury (TBI). However, TSP-1 concentrations are undetermined in the peripheral blood of patients with TBI. This study aimed to determine if TSP-1 measured in the plasma of patients relates to TBI diagnosis and injury severity.

description: The incidence of life-threatening invasive fungal infections (IFIs) has increased significantly in recent years. Current therapeutic options for IFIs are limited. Only four major classes of antifungal agents are available to clinicians, namely polyenes, azoles, echinocandins, and flucytosine. These antifungals have particular drawbacks, including toxicity, drug-drug interactions, and increasing antifungal resistance. Consequently, there is an urgent need for new antifungals to combat IFIs. This review illuminates new classes of synthetic antifungal drugs under preclinical and clinical investigations that have novel mechanisms of action; it also examines innovative strategies for the in vivo delivery of antifungal drugs. It is imperative to expand the pipeline of antifungals to tackle emerging fungal resistance against conventional antimycotic drugs, toxicity, and drug-drug interactions. This unmet medical need should not be underappreciated.

description: We present a JT gravity set up in the presence of projected ModMax corrections in two dimensions. Our starting point is the Einstein's gravity in four dimensions accompanied by the ModMax Lagrangian. The 2D gravity action is obtained following a suitable dimensional reduction which contains a 2D image of the 4D ModMax Lagrangian. We carry out a perturbative analysis to find out the vacuum structure of the theory which asymptotes to $AdS_2$ in the absence of $U(1)$ gauge fields. We estimate the holographic central charge and obtain corrections perturbatively upto quadratic order in the ModMax and the $U(1)$ coupling. We also find out ModMax corrected 2D black hole solutions and discuss their extremal limits.

Eukaryotic Mismatch Repair in Relation to DNA Replication
Creators: name: Kunkel, Thomas A.

Year: 2015

description: Three processes act in series to accurately replicate the eukaryotic nuclear genome. The major replicative DNA polymerases strongly prevent mismatch formation, occasional mismatches that do form are proofread during replication, and rare mismatches that escape proofreading are corrected by mismatch repair (MMR). This review focuses on MMR in light of increasing knowledge about nuclear DNA replication enzymology and the rate and specificity with which mismatches are generated during leading- and lagging-strand replication. We consider differences in MMR efficiency in relation to mismatch recognition, signaling to direct MMR to the nascent strand, mismatch removal, and the timing of MMR. These studies are refining our understanding of relationships between generating and repairing replication errors to achieve accurate replication of both DNA strands of the nuclear genome.
title: Delivering on a Promise: A Longitudinal Cohort Study of Emergent Bilinguals' Academic Achievement in a Utah Dual Language Program
Creators: name: Campbell, J. Eric
Publisher: name: Utah State University

description: Emergent bilingual (EB) students are a growing population in the U.S. school system currently comprising over 10% of the total population. U.S. school districts have educated EB students using a myriad of practices, including dual language immersion (DLI). Many studies have looked at the academic achievement of native-Spanish speaking EB students, yet there is a dearth of research on DLI in medium-sized school districts in rural settings. This study focused on native-Spanish speaking EB students in a DLI program in a rural Utah district. Specifically, the study compared student academic achievement in English acquisition, English language arts, mathematics, and grade point average of EB students enrolled in DLI to EB students not enrolled in a DLI program.
Student achievement data for EB students was collected from 2014-2020 (N = 1,046). Using various regression methods such as ordinal logistic regression, multiple regression, and multilevel modeling (MLM), the study sought the predictive power of DLI after controlling for gender, free and reduced lunch status, and special education enrollment. Results found that on average DLI students performed as well as or better than their non-DLI peers. MLM analyses indicated that EB students enrolled in DLI had superior growth trajectories to their non-DLI peers over time.
