description: The oxygen dissociation and the oxidized structure on the pristine C3N monolayer in exposure to air are the inevitably critical issues for the C3N engineering and surface functionalization yet have not been revealed in detail. Using the first-principles calculations, we have systematically investigated the possible O2 adsorption sites, various O2 dissociation pathways and the oxidized structures. It is demonstrated that the pristine C3N monolayer shows more O2 physisorption sites and exhibits stronger O2 adsorption than the pristine graphene. Among various dissociation pathways, the most preferable one is a two-step process involving an intermediate state with the chemisorbed O2 and the barrier is lower than that on the pristine graphene, indicating that the pristine C3N monolayer is more susceptible to oxidation than the pristine graphene. Furthermore, we found that the most stable oxidized structure is not produced by the most preferable dissociation pathway but generated from a direct dissociation process. These results can be generalized into a wide range of temperatures and pressures using ab initio atomistic thermodynamics. Our findings deepen the understanding of the chemical stability of 2D crystalline carbon nitrides under ambient conditions, and could provide insights into the tailoring of the surface chemical structures via doping and oxidation.

David Hume: Unwitting Cosmopolitan?
Creators: name: Glowienka, Edward W.
Publisher: name: Diametros
Year: 2015

description: If Hume is considered cosmopolitan in his ethics at all, he is said to be so through his anti-mercantilist approach to commerce. Prevailing commercial interpretations attribute to Hume a cosmopolitanism that is best described as instrumental and supervenient. I argue that Hume’s principles lead to a cosmopolitan ethic that is more demanding than commercial interpretations recognize. Hume’s cosmopolitanism is more than merely supervenient and its instrumentality is such that cosmopolitan regard becomes inseparable from healthy patriotic concern. I show sympathy and duty, not merely justice, central to Hume’s cosmopolitanism and address how Hume’s moderate cosmopolitanism might be enacted in society. I suggest Hume’s view can contribute to contemporary cosmopolitan discourse, aiding both those forms with which it is consonant and the practical ends of otherwise opposed, Kantian forms.

Hexagonalization in $AdS_3 \times S^3 \times T^4$: Mirror Corrections

description: A big open problem in $AdS_3 \times S^3 \times T^4$ holographic duality is to compute the CFT data of the dual theory. In this direction recently it was introduced the hexagonalization framework in the $AdS_3$ context. It allows the computation of the structure constants of the CFT$_2$ dual in the planar limit non-perturbatively, however in this proposal it was introduced only the asymptotic part of the hexagon valid for correlators with asymptotically large bridge lengths. In this work we complete this picture by computing the so called mirror corrections that allow to describe structure constants for finite bridge lengths and as a byproduct we also prove that the half-BPS operators in the theory do not receive these corrections. We end up by giving the first steps on using hexagonalization to compute $n$-point functions in the $AdS_3 \times S^3 \times T^4$ holographic duality.

Justice, Sympathy and the Command of our Esteem
Creators: name: Taylor, Jacqueline
Publisher: name: Diametros
Year: 2015

description: I have shown here the different roles that sympathy plays in the accounts of justice in the Treatise and Enquiry. In the former work, a redirected sympathy naturally extends our concern, and subsequently our moral approval or blame, to all those included within the scope of the rules of justice. In the Enquiry, we find this same progress of sentiments, but Hume’s introduction of the sentiment of humanity allows him to make a stronger case for the importance of those virtues that are useful, particularly the virtues of justice. The command of our esteem and our moral approval of justice secure a place for justice at the heart of Hume’s ethics. This does not entail, however, that other useful virtues are not also essential. Benevolence and the care of children, friendship, and gratitude not only help to sustain sociability, but they are essential for living a properly human life.

description: We study the entanglement phase structure of a holographic boundary conformal field theory (BCFT) in a two-dimensional black hole background. The bulk dual is the AdS$_3$ black string geometry with a Karch-Randall brane. We compute the subregion entanglement entropy of various two-sided bipartitions to elucidate the phase space where a Page curve exists in this setup. We do fully analytical computations on both the gravity side and the field theory side and demonstrate that the results precisely match. We discuss the entanglement phase structure describing where a Page curve exists in this geometry in the context of these analytical results. This is a useful model to study entanglement entropy for quantum field theory on a curved background.

Hume's Humanity and the Protection of the Vulnerable
Creators: name: Zagorac, Ivana
Publisher: name: Diametros
Year: 2015

description: It is well known that Hume excluded inferior rational beings, who are incapable of resistance and weak resentment, from his concept of justice. This resulted in a critique of Hume’s theory of justice, as it would not protect those who were the most vulnerable against ill treatment. The typical answer to this critique is that Hume excluded inferior rational beings from the concept of justice, but not from that of morality, and that he considered their protection to be the task of humanity. The subject of this text is the range of Hume’s humanity. What manner of protection does Hume’s humanity truly offer? Despite the conclusion that this manner of protection of the vulnerable is insufficient, Hume’s humanity contains valuable characteristics worthy of re-evaluation in modern debate — both on the limits of humanity and on the conditions and models of protecting the vulnerable.

NonMarkovian Abraham--Lorentz--Dirac Equation: Radiation Reaction without Pathology

description: Motion of a point charge emitting radiation in an electromagnetic field obeys the Abraham-Lorenz-Dirac (ALD) equation, with the effects of radiation reaction or self-force incorporated. This class of equations describing backreaction, including also the equations for gravitational self-force or Einstein's equation for cosmology driven by trace anomaly, contain third-order derivative terms. They are known to have pathologies like the possession of runaway solutions, causality violation in pre-acceleration and the need for an extra second-order derivative initial condition. In our current program we reexamine this old problem from the perspective of non-Markovian dynamics in open systems, applied earlier to backreaction problems in the early universe. Here we consider a harmonic atom coupled to a scalar field, which acts effectively like a supra-Ohmic environment, as in scalar electrodynamics. Our analysis shows that a) there is no need for specifying a second derivative for the initial condition; b) there is no pre-acceleration. These undesirable features in conventional treatments arise from an inconsistent Markovian assumption: these equations were regarded as Markovian ab initio, not as a limit of the backreaction-imbued non-Markovian equation of motion. If one starts with the full non-Markovian dynamical equation and takes the proper Markovian limit judiciously, no harms are done. Finally, c) There is no causal relation between the higher-derivative term in the equation of motion and the existence of runaway solutions. If the charge has an effective size greater than this critical value, its dynamics is stable. When this reasonable condition is met, radiation reaction understood and treated correctly in the non-Ohmic non-Markovian dynamics still obeys a third-order derivative equation, but it does not require a second derivative initial condition, and there is no pre-acceleration.

Solidarity in the legal frames
Creators: name: Głos, Aleksandra
Publisher: name: Diametros
Year: 2015

description: The purpose of this paper is to explore the meaning of solidarity and its proper position in the legal frames, with particular focus on health care. Solidarity is often identified with welfare arrangements and social guarantees. In this institutional version, it tends to humiliate citizens and restrict their entrepreneurship. Moreover, administrative solidarity is unable to recognize the actual needs of the most vulnerable members of society, which should be one of its primary concerns. Solidarity, in its original meaning, understood as supportive cooperation of fellow citizens, links their rights and freedoms with mutual duties and responsibilities. Hence, an alternative framework for solidarity should be provided. This framework, committed to the idea of decency, introduces the distinction between the minimum and maximum content of solidarity enforceable by legal means, which should be translated into certain health care practices.

description: To confirm that bees had learned well after ten trials, we trained control groups for a longer time, over 30 trials. (A) Bees were trained for ten or thirty trials in a Y-maze. Four groups of bees were trained to discriminate between two equal-area yellow-cyan patterns with the reversed colour arrangement, one of which was rewarded and the other not (differential conditioning), for either 10 or 30 trials. Two further groups were trained for 30 trials with only the rewarded training pattern. The yellow and cyan colours differed in chromatic contrast to the grey background (Table 1). * denote choice frequencies above chance with p<0.05. The results of the statistical tests are given in Table S1. (B) Bees were trained with an equal-area pattern and tested with two novel patterns, a ring pattern and a dot pattern that had the same colour configuration as the training pattern (yellow-centre N=6 bees, cyan centre N=7 bees). (C) Same test as (B) with blue-violet patterns that had the same chromatic contrast to the grey background. In a second test single colours were presented. The results of statistical tests are given in Table S1, S2.

description: The pi- + 2H -> n + n, pi- + 3H -> n + n + n, pi- + 3He -> n + d and pi- + 3He -> p + n + n capture reactions from the lowest atomic orbitals are studied under full inclusion of final state interactions. Our results are obtained with the single-nucleon and two-nucleon transition operators derived at leading order in chiral effective field theory. The initial and final three-nucleon states are calculated with the chiral nucleon-nucleon SMS potential up to N4LO+ augmented by the consistently regularized chiral N2LO three-nucleon potential. We found that absorption rates depend strongly on the nuclear pion absorption operator used, and its two-body parts change the rates by a few orders of magnitude. The final state interactions between nucleons generated by the two-nucleon forces are also important, while the three-nucleon interaction plays a visible role only in the pi- + 3He -> n + d reaction. Our absorption rate for the pi- + 2H -> n + n process is in good agreement with the experimental data from the hadronic ground-state broadening in pionic deuterium. The capture rates on 3He are also generally consistent with the spectroscopic data within error bars, though our central values are found to be systematically below the data. We show that for the three-body breakup processes the dominant contributions to the absorption rates arise from the quasi-free scattering and final-state interaction kinematical configurations.

description: The purpose of this work is to study mortar methods for linear elasticity using standard low order finite element spaces. Based on residual stabilization, we introduce a stabilized mortar method for linear elasticity and compare it to the unstabilized mixed mortar method. For simplicity, both methods use a Lagrange multiplier defined on a trace mesh inherited from one side of the interface only. We derive a quasi-optimality estimate for the stabilized method and present the stability criteria of the mixed $P_1-P_1$ approximation. Our numerical results demonstrate the stability and the convergence of the methods for tie contact problems. Moreover, the results show that the mixed method can be successfully extended to three dimensional problems.

Year: 2007

description: Introduction: food is a major factor affecting health and well beings. Consumption of contaminated foods and flesh of infected animals can resulted in different types of food born infections. Objectives: The objective of this study was to assess sanitary conditions of public food and drinking establishment, in Ambo town, West Showa zone, Oromia Region. Methods: a cross- sectional survey was carried out to assess sanitary conditions of public food and drinking establishments from February to March 2007. Standardized pre-tested questionnaire and observational check list were used for data collections. Open ended questionnaire were used for physical check up and stool examination of food handlers. Results: Majority (96.6%) of the establishments were owned privately. 54.4% of catering establishments had their food and drinking business in rented buildings. Eighty six percent of the establishments were managed by the owner themselves. 38.9% of catering establishments had their activity of food and drinking business without formal licensing. There were high proportion of poor physical conditions of premises (poor repair of kitchen and dinning rooms). Sanitary condition of formal (licensed) catering establishments was found in better conditions in comparison to informal ones. Among one hundred twenty three establishments that had kitchens only 23.6% of the establishments were rated as good sanitary conditions. Storage of ready to be used equipments were safe in establishments in which sanitary inspections was done in the last one year in comparison of uninspected establishments (OR = 6.53; 95% C.I (3.07, 13.86)). Among food handlers for whom stool examination done the overall worm infection were found to be 34.5%. Conclusions and recommendations: - Sanitary conditions of many catering establishments were not satisfactory due to high proportion of insanitary conditions of premise, therefore the probability of food contamination in these establishments were high. Legal licensing, sanitary inspection and self control have positive impact on improvement of sanitary conditions of catering establishments. As the solution to improver insanitary v conditions of catering establishments' Health sectors, Municipality, Ministry of Trade, Industry and Tourism should work in integrations with enforcing to be licensed for those non-licensed and by regular follow up (inspection of sanitary conditions of the establishments). Training of catering managers was rewarded inturn to train and supervise food handlers. Planning and implementation of proper waste handling and disposal was the must to improve currently unacceptable handling and disposal system of waste.

description: Statistical analysis for Experiment 2 for bees trained and tested with yellow-cyan patterns (relates to Figure 4A,B). It should be noted here that bees trained with the cyan dot pattern displayed their preference in the single-colour test by approaching the stimulus but rarely made contact with it. This was not the case in the other tests where the frequency of contacts (and similarly the frequency of approaches ending in a contact) revealed the beeâ€™s preference. Typically we find for these kind of unrewarded tests in a Y-maze that contacts are the best behavioural measure for detecting discrimination.; Statistical analysis for Experiment 2 for bees trained and tested with violet-blue patterns (Figure 4C, D).

description: By investigating the $SU(2)$ Yang-Mills matrix model coupled to fundamental fermions in the adiabatic limit, we demonstrate quantum critical behaviour at special corners of the gauge field configuration space. The quantum scalar potential for the gauge field induced by the fermions diverges at the corners, and is intimately related to points of enhanced degeneracy of the fermionic Hamiltonian. This in turn leads to superselection sectors in the Hilbert space of the gauge field, the ground states in different sectors being orthogonal to each other. As a consequence of our analysis, we show that 2-color QCD coupled to two Weyl fermions has three quantum phases. When coupled to a massless Dirac fermion, the number of quantum phases is four. One of these phases is the color-spin locked phase.

description: Recently, the tetraquark mixing framework has been proposed as a possible structure for the two light-meson nonets in the $J^P=0^+$ channel, the light nonet composed of $a_0(980)$, $K_0^*(700)$, $f_0(500)$, $f_0(980)$, and the heavy nonet of $a_0(1450)$, $K_0^*(1430)$, $f_0(1370)$, $f_0(1500)$. Among various signatures, we report in this work that their partial decay widths collected from various experimental data in Particle Data Group (PDG) can support this mixing scheme also. In particular, we demonstrate that the couplings of the light nonet to two pseudoscalar mesons estimated from the partial widths are consistently stronger than those of the heavy nonet. This consistent feature agrees qualitatively well with the predictions from the tetraquark mixing framework and, therefore, provides supporting evidence for the tetraquark mixing.

Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2018

description: Background: Compassionate care is a hallmark of quality health care in any health system. However, this issue only has got attention very recently in the Ethiopian context. In addition, there is no locally applicable measurement tool to assess the compassionate care practice in the Ethiopian context. Objectives: The objective of this study was to assess the validity of the Schwartz Center Compassionate Care Scale and to measure compassionate care practice among oncology patients at Tikur Anbessa Specialized Hospital. Methods: An institutional based cross-sectional study supplemented by qualitative approach was conducted from March- May 2018. A total of 423 oncology patients were selected using a systematic random sampling technique. Descriptive statistics were used to summarize socio-demographic and clinical characteristic of the study participants. Construct validity and reliability analyses were conducted to determine the psychometric property of the tool and then compassionate care practice was measured. The analysis was done by statistical package for social science version 23.0, Amos version 23 and Open code version 4.02. Results: Two hundred seventy five (66.4%) of the participants were females. The mean age of the participants was 47 and breast cancer was the leading cause of facility visit 122 (29.5%). The Schwartz Center Compassionate Care Scale is a two factor structure with a good model fit and has high scale reliability of 0.88 and 0.83, 0.84 subscale reliability respectively. The overall compassionate care practice was found to be 45.7% and high patients' flow, bed shortage and being treated by different physicians were among the factors that identified to be a barrier for compassionate care practicing. Conclusion and recommendations: The Schwartz Center Compassionate Care Scale can be applied to measure compassionate care practice in the Ethiopian context and the practice is found to be low. Actions should be taken to improve the compassionate care practice.

description: Semileptonic $Λ_b$ decays are investigated in the framework of the relativistic quark model based on the quasipotential approach and the quark-diquark picture of baryons. The decay form factors are expressed through the overlap integrals of the initial and final baryon wave functions. All calculations are done without employing nonrelativistic and heavy quark expansions. The momentum transfer dependence of the decay form factors is explicitly determined in the whole accessible kinematical range without any extrapolations or model assumptions. Both the heavy-to-heavy $Λ_b\toΛ_c\ellν_\ell$ and heavy-to-light $Λ_b\to p\ellν_\ell$ decay branching fractions are calculated. The results agree within error bars with the experimental value of the branching fraction of the $Λ_b\toΛ_c^+l^-\barν_l$ decay. From the recent LHCb data on the ratio of the branching fractions of the heavy-to-light and heavy-to-heavy semileptonic $Λ_b$ decays the ratio of the Cabbibo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix elements $|V_{ub}|/|V_{cb}|$ is obtained. It is consistent with the corresponding ratio determined from the inclusive $B$ meson decays.

description: In recent years, machine learning potentials (MLP) for atomistic simulations have attracted a lot of attention in chemistry and materials science. Many new approaches have been developed with the primary aim to transfer the accuracy of electronic structure calculations to large condensed systems containing thousands of atoms. In spite of these advances, the reliability of modern MLPs in reproducing the subtle details of the multi-dimensional potential-energy surface is still difficult to assess for such systems. On the other hand, moderately sized systems enabling the application of tools for thorough and systematic quality-control are nowadays rarely investigated. In this work we use benchmark-quality harmonic and anharmonic vibrational frequencies as a sensitive probe for the validation of high-dimensional neural network potentials. For the case of the formic acid dimer, a frequently studied model system for which stringent spectroscopic data became recently available, we show that high-quality frequencies can be obtained from state-of-the-art calculations in excellent agreement with coupled cluster theory and experimental data.

description: This study investigates loudness perception in real-world contexts using predictors related to the sound, situation, or person. In the study, 105 participants recorded 6594 sound environments in their homes, which were then evaluated based on the Experience Sampling Method. Hierarchical linear regressions using a loudness level based on ISO 532-1 allowed for obtaining the best model fits for predicting perceived loudness and explaining the highest variance. LAeq and LAF5 provided comparable results and may require less computational effort. However, the analysis shows that only one-third of the variance explained by fixed effects was attributable to the loudness level. Sixteen percent stemmed from perceived properties of the soundscape; 1% were attributable to relatively temporally stable, person-related predictors like participants' age; non-auditory situational predictors made no additional contribution. The results thus did not confirm previous findings on loudness perception under laboratory conditions, emphasizing the importance of the situational context. Along with the current paper, a comprehensive dataset, including the assessed person-related, situational, and sound-related measures as well as LAeq time-series and third-octave spectrograms, is provided to enable further research on sound perception, indoor soundscapes, and emotion.

description: We investigate deformations of extremal near-horizon geometries in Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton theory, including various topological terms, and also in D=11 supergravity. By linearizing the field equations and Bianchi identities over the compact spatial cross-sections of the near-horizon geometry, we prove that the moduli associated with such deformations are constrained by elliptic systems of PDEs. The moduli space of deformations of near-horizon geometries in these theories is therefore shown to be finite dimensional.

description: Introduction: sexual violence is one form of gender based violence which is the most silent epidemic; affect the health and life of women in the world. Because women have much less control over decision making, as a result of low status, and have less access to health and social services they are more vulnerable for violence and the risk of HIV infection. As a result of this gander based violence and HIV infection are the two most important factors which affect the health and wellbeing of women globally. Objective: The objective of this study is to assess the relationship between sexual violence and HIV infection among VCT user women in South Wollo Zone. Methods and Materials: A facility based cross sectional study was conducted using quantitative methods on a sample of 800 people living in seven selected districts of VCT centers of the south Wollo. Result: The quantitative study reveled that the prevalence of life time sexual violence, life time partner violence, and last 12 month partner violence was 34.6%. 32.3 and 10.5 % respectively. The prevalence of HIV among VCT users is 21.5%. Violence is significantly associated with the risk of HIV infection (life time sexual violence OR= 1.95, 95% CI =1.33- 2.86), last 12 month intimate partner violence (OR= 2.55, 95% CI=1.5- 4.33). Conclusion: The prevalence of sexual violence and the risk of HIV infection is higher among illiterate women. Therefore, women empowerment is an important tool to reduce both sexual violence and HIV/AIDS, which are the major public health problem.

description: Using the determinant quantum Monte Carlo method, we investigate the metal-insulator transitions induced by the stripe of charge density in an interacting two-dimensional Dirac fermion system. The stripe will introduce the transport anisotropy and insulating intermediate phase into the system, accompanied by the change of band structure and a peak of density of states around Fermi energy. In the case of strong correlation, stripe exhibits competition with Coulomb repulsion through closing the energy gap and disrupting the magnetic order, and finally drives the system in Mott insulating phase back to the metallic state. Our results may provide a feasible way to modify transport properties by setting charge stripes in experiments.

description: This thesis examines the development of competitive Scottish bagpipe repertoire from 1947 through 2015, focusing on the concepts of convention, change, and innovation within the highest levels of light music competition. Research encompasses both solo and band competition, focusing on The Northern Meeting, The Argyllshire Gathering, The Glenfiddich Solo Piping Championships, The Uist and Barra Annual Invitational Piping Competition, and The World Pipe Band Championships. The inauguration of the modern iteration of The World Pipe Band Championships in 1947 serves as the starting point for this study. As a member of the communities in question, emic observation and reflexive exercises throughout the course of study have shaped my role as researcher and informed my own performance practice. Chapter three explores concepts fundamental to this thesis: tradition, convention, change, and innovation. Chapter four offers an introduction to repertoire data collection and the synthesis of quantitative data with interview evidence from key figures in the pipiing community. Chapters five, six, and seven explore the solo march, strathspey, and reel competition; the pipe band march, strathspey and reel competition; and the pipe band medley, respectively, focusing on the development of repertoire and community reflections on these competitions and the decision-making processes of competing pipers. Building on this analysis, chaper eight explores the concept of repertoire canons in competitive piping, both identifying areas where canons do and do not exist and listing the repertoire that comprises said canons. Chapter nine offers commentary on the organological development of the bagpipe within the specified time period, identified as having had a key impact on competitive practices through analysis of interview data. Finally, these findings are synthesised, identifying areas in which convention, change, and innovation have occurrred in competitive piping and the complex relationships that have influenced and driven the artform from 1947-2015.

description: Light-cone QCD sum rules to leading order in QCD are used to investigate the tensor form factors of the $Σ-Σ$, $Ξ-Ξ$ and $ Σ-Λ$ transitions in the range $1 GeV^2 \leq Q^2 \leq 10 GeV^2$. The DAs of $Σ$, $Ξ$ and $Λ$ baryon have been calculated without higher order terms. Then, study including higher order corrections have been done for $Σ$ and $Λ$ baryon. The result of form factors are obtained using these two DAs. We make a comparison with the predictions of the chiral quark soliton model.

Magnitude and Determinants of out of pocket medical expenditure among outpatients visiting public hospitals in East Shoa zone of Oromia region
Creators: name: Bedado, Deraro
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2019

description: Background: Out of pocket expenditure at the point of health service delivery increases the likelihood of catastrophic financial expenditures for health service users. In Ethiopia, around 33.7% of total health expenditure comes from the household out-of-pocket expenditure. Such significant out of -pocket payment creates financial barriers to access to health services and puts people at risk of poverty. Therefore, this finding offers new evidence on the magnitude and determinants of out of pocket expenditure on out-patient care. Objectives: To investigate the magnitude and determinants of Out-of-Pocket medical expenditure among outpatients visiting Hospitals in East Shoa Zone, Oromia, Ethiopia. Methods: An institution based cross-sectional study was conducted on 422 participants visited public hospitals in East Shoa zone from February 18 to Murch 9, 2019. Data collection took place through interviews with patients coming to the outpatient pharmacy after finishing their visits at the different outpatient departments in the hospitals. Data were collected via structured questioner, then it was cleaned, coded, entered into EPI info 7 and exported to SPSS version 23 statistical package for analysis. Descriptive statistics and both bivariate and multivariable logistic regression were used to identify determinants of OOP. The existence of association was measured using odds ratio with 95% confidence intervals. Results: From the 378 interviews included in the final analysis, the proportion of participants paid out-of-pocket medical expenditure was 332(87.8%) and the mean out-of-pocket medical expenditure was 351.48 ETB (12.55USD) per visit, while the direct medical cost was 132.86 ETB. In addition, the study identifies some significant determinants for the out-of-pocket medical expenses of OPD services namely, residence, education of the household head and sex of the households. Conclusion: - Most of the study participants were pay OOPME with the high average for OPD service received which is high when compared with the mean monthly household per capita income and OOPME found to determine by residence, educational level of household head and sex of the household. Health managers should focus on the implementation of CBHI and start SHI in order to protect society from financial risk that occurred at the service delivery.

description: Non-Hermitian skin effect (NHSE) describes the exponential localization of all eigenstates toward boundaries in non-Hermitian systems, and has attracted intense research interest of late. Here we theoretically propose a scheme in which the NHSE significantly impacts the external motion of a single trapped ion through complex spin-motion dynamics. On the one hand, we show the competition between the NHSE and the coherent Bloch dynamics. On the other hand, since the NHSE manifests as a non-reciprocal flow in occupied phonon modes, we demonstrate that such dynamics can have potential applications in cooling and sensing. Our proposal can be readily implemented using existing experimental techniques, and offers a scalable (in terms of the available ions and phonon modes) simulation platform for relevant non-Hermitian physics.
