1.1 HINTERGRUND

Der digitale Wandel verändert den Arbeitsmarkt fundamental. Laut World Economic Report werden alleine 65 % der Kinder, die heute in die Grundschule kommen, später in einem Job arbeiten, welcher derzeit noch nicht existiert.1 Junge Menschen müssen daher auf eine Arbeitswelt im kontinuierlichen Wandel vorbereitet werden. Aber auch, um aktiv und verantwortungsvoll an einer Gesellschaft teilzu-haben, die immer stärker durch das Internet, soziale Plattformen und künstliche Intelligenz gestaltet wird, brauchen Menschen heute neue Fähigkeiten und Fertigkeiten im Umgang mit digitalen Medien und Daten. Als zentraler Bildungsakteur kommt den Hochschulen im Kontext des digitalen Wandels daher eine maßgebliche Gestaltungsaufgabe zu, insbesondere in der Weiterentwicklung der Hoch-schullehre im digitalen Zeitalter.

Dem digitalen Wandel entsprechende Lehre findet zunehmend Verbreitung an deutschen Hoch-schulen. Neben den „Vorreiter/innen” des digitalen Wandels in der Lehre, die die Weiterentwicklung von Lehre, Didaktik und Curricula mit großem persönlichen Engagement vorantreiben, zeigen immer mehr Lehrende Interesse am Thema und werden dabei zunehmend von auf- und ausgebauten Medien- und Didaktikzentren unterstützt. Damit sind an vielen Hochschulen wichtige Grundlagen geschaffen, um den digitalen Wandel institutionell zu gestalten und in die Breite zu tragen. Der digitale Wandel für die Lehre bedeutet dabei weit mehr als eine explizite Digitalisierung des Lehrens und Lernens im Sinne von Online-Lehre. Vielmehr meint „Lehre im digitalen Zeitalter” den Einsatz von Methoden des Lehrens und Lernens in Präsenz wie auch im virtuellen Raum, die der digitalen Welt gerecht werden und eng mit zeitgemäßen curricularen Inhalten und Studienmodellen verzahnt sind. Für diesen ganzheitlichen Wandlungsprozess der nächsten Jahre brauchen Hochschulen heute eine Strategie.

description: The goal is to develop a novel approach for cardiac disease prediction and diagnosis using intelligent agents. Initially the symptoms are preprocessed using filter and wrapper based agents. The filter removes the missing or irrelevant symptoms. Wrapper is used to extract the data in the data set according to the threshold limits. Dependency of each symptom is identified using dependency checker agent. The classification is based on the prior and posterior probability of the symptoms with the evidence value. Finally the symptoms are classified in to five classes namely absence, starting, mild, moderate and serious. Using the cooperative approach the cardiac problem is solved and verified.

Tracking Streamer Blobs Into the Heliosphere

description: In this paper, we use coronal and heliospheric images from the STEREO spacecraft to track streamer blobs into the heliosphere and to observe them being swept up and compressed by the fast wind from low-latitude coronal holes. From an analysis of their elongation/time tracks, we discover a 'locus of enhanced visibility' where neighboring blobs pass each other along the line of sight and their corotating spiral is seen edge on. The detailed shape of this locus accounts for a variety of east-west asymmetries and allows us to recognize the spiral of blobs by its signatures in the STEREO images: In the eastern view from STEREO-A, the leading edge of the spiral is visible as a moving wavefront where foreground ejections overtake background ejections against the sky and then fade. In the western view from STEREO-B, the leading edge is only visible close to the Sun-spacecraft line where the radial path of ejections nearly coincides with the line of sight. In this case, we can track large-scale waves continuously back to the lower corona and see that they originate as face-on blobs.

description: We observe competition between the modulation instability (MI) and stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) in a 9.2-GHz broadband SBS slow light device, in which a standard 20-km-long single-mode LEAF fibre is used as the SBS medium. We find that MI is dominant and depletes most of the pump power when we use an intense pump beam at ~1.55 μm, where the LEAF fibre is anomalously dispersive. The dominance of the MI in the LEAF-fibre-based system suppresses the SBS gain, degrading the SBS slow light delay and limiting the SBS gain-bandwidth to 126 dB \cdot GHz. In a dispersion-shifted highly nonlinear fibre, the SBS slow light delay is improved due to the suppression of the MI, resulting in a gain-bandwidth product of 344 dB \cdot GHz, limited by our available pump power of 0.82 W.

description: The ARMrayan Multimedia Mobile CMS (Content Management System) is the first mobile CMS that gives the opportunity to users for creating multimedia J2ME mobile applications with their desired content, design and logo; simply, without any need for writing even a line of code. The low-level programming and compatibility problems of the J2ME, along with UI designing difficulties, makes it hard for most people -even programmers- to broadcast their content to the widespread mobile phones used by nearly all people. This system provides user-friendly, PC-based tools for creating a tree index of pages and inserting multiple multimedia contents (e.g. sound, video and picture) in each page for creating a J2ME mobile application. The output is a stand-alone Java mobile application that has a user interface, shows texts and pictures and plays music and videos regardless of the type of devices used as long as the devices support the J2ME platform. Bitmap fonts have also been used thus Middle Eastern languages can be easily supported on all mobile phone devices. We omitted programming concepts for users in order to simplify multimedia content-oriented mobile application designing for use in educational, cultural or marketing centers. Ordinary operators can now create a variety of multimedia mobile applications such as tutorials, catalogues, books, and guides in minutes rather than months. Simplicity and power has been the goal of this CMS. In this paper, we present the software engineered-designed concepts of the ARMrayan MCMS along with the implementation challenges faces and solutions adapted.

A one-to-two dimensional mapping using a partial fast Fourier transform
Creators: name: Ostlund, Stellan
Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: It will be shown how to map a simple one-dimensional tight binding model with a cosine potential in one dimension exactly to a two dimensional tight binding model with periodic boundary conditions with the presence of a single flux quantum spread evenly on the torus. The mapping is is achieved by a partial sequence of "Fast Fourier Transform" (FFT) steps which if completed would be an exact Fourier transform of the original model. Each step of the FFT recursively maps a tight binding model into two decoupled sublattices of half the lattice length.

description: We present results from a 5-month photometric survey for stellar rotation periods combined with a 4-year radial-velocity survey for membership and binarity in the 220Myr open cluster M34. We report surface rotation periods for 120 stars, 83 of which are late-type cluster members. A comparison to previous work serves to illustrate the importance of high cadence long baseline photometric observations and membership information. The new M34 periods are less biased against slow rotation and cleaned for non-members. The rotation periods of the cluster members span more than an order of magnitude from 0.5 day up to 11.5 days, and trace two distinct rotational sequences - fast (C) and moderate-to-slow (I) - in the color-period diagram. The sequences represent two different states in the rotational evolution of the late-type cluster members. We use the color-period diagrams for M34 and for younger and older clusters to estimate the timescale for the transition from the C to the I sequence and find ~<150Myr, ~150-300Myr, and ~300-600Myr for G, early-mid K, and late K dwarfs, respectively. The small number of stars in the gap between C and I suggest a quick transition. We estimate a lower limit on the maximum spin-down rate (dP/dt) during this transition to be ~0.06 days/Myr and ~0.08 days/Myr for early and late K dwarfs, respectively. We compare the I sequence rotation periods in M34 and the Hyades for G and K dwarfs and find that K dwarfs spin down slower than the Skumanich rate. We determine a gyrochronology age of 240Myr for M34. We measure the effect of cluster age uncertainties on the gyrochronology age for M34 and find the resulting error to be consistent with the error estimate for the technique. We use the M34 I sequence to redetermine the coefficients in the expression for rotational dependence on color used in gyrochronology (abridged).

description: Let $M$ be a complex manifold of complex dimension $n+k$. We say that the functions $u_1,...s,u_k$ and the vector fields $ξ_1,...,ξ_k$ on $M$ form a \emph{complex gradient system} if $ξ_1,...,ξ_k,Jξ_1,...,Jξ_k$ are linearly independent at each point $p\in M$ and generate an integrable distribution of $TM$ of dimension $2k$ and $du_α(ξ_β)=0$, $\d^c\u_α(ξ_β)=δ_{αβ}$ for $α,β=1,...,k$. We prove a Cauchy theorem for such complex gradient systems with initial data along a $\CR-$submanifold of type $(\CRdim,\CRcodim)$. We also give a complete local characterization for the complex gradient systems which are \emph{holomorphic} and \emph{abelian}, which means that the vector fields $ξ_α^c=ξ_α-Jξ_β$, $α=1,...,k$ are holomorphic and satisfy $[ξ_alpha^c,\bar{ξ_β^c}]=0$ for each $α,β=1,...,k$.

Targeting tumour microenvironment : development of carbonic anhydrase IX nuclear imaging agents
Creators: name: Lau, Joseph Cheong Chun
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: Tumour hypoxia has long been recognized as an impediment to radiotherapy and chemotherapy. Cancers that are hypoxic tend to be aggressive, with high propensity for distant metastasis. As hypoxia is a salient feature of most solid cancers, targeting components of the hypoxia-induced signaling cascade has been proposed as a means for oncologic treatment. The key enzyme mediating hypoxia-induced stress response in cancers is carbonic anhydrase IX (CA-IX). Regulated by hypoxia-inducible factor 1α (HIF-1α), CA-IX catalyzes the reversible hydration of carbon dioxide to bicarbonate ion. CA-IX promotes cancer cell survival by transporting bicarbonate ions into the cell to maintain pH homeostasis during glycolysis. CA-IX is well-established as a surrogate marker for cellular hypoxia. Overexpression of CA-IX has been observed in a broad spectrum of cancers including: breast, cervix, ovarian, bladder, brain, colon, lung, kidney, head and neck cancers. In healthy individuals, CA-IX is expressed at low levels except in the gastrointestinal tract where it is involved in the process of cell differentiation. As CA-IX is pathologically expressed by cancer cells and located at the cell surface, it has emerged as a promising imaging/therapeutic target. In this thesis, we communicate the development of molecular antigen recognition molecules as potential radiotracers for CA-IX targeted nuclear imaging. We identified two classes of sulfonamide derivatives that successfully delineated CA-IX expression in tumour-bearing mice. Isoform selectivity, the major challenge for small molecule inhibitor-based imaging, was achieved via a multivalent approach or by conjugating pharmacophores to polyaminocarboxylate chelators. With good tumour-to-nontarget ratios and fast pharmacokinetics, some of these agents warrant further investigation as surrogate hypoxia imaging agents. Additionally we radiolabeled three novel monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) and one affibody for CA-IX imaging, with one mAb in particular showing significant accumulation in tumours. Collectively, this research provides a non-invasive platform to characterize and quantify expression of CA-IX in primary lesions and across metastatic sites. The diagnostic information can be readily integrated with emergent pharmaceuticals to increase effectiveness and safety of CA-IX or hypoxia-directed treatments for cancer patients.

description: We report the observation of Coulomb blockade in a quantum dot contacted by two quantum point contacts each with a single fully-transmitting mode, a system previously thought to be well described without invoking Coulomb interactions. At temperatures below 50 mK we observe a periodic oscillation in the conductance of the dot with gate voltage that corresponds to a residual quantization of charge. From the temperature and magnetic field dependence, we infer the oscillations are Mesoscopic Coulomb Blockade, a type of Coulomb blockade caused by electron interference in an otherwise open system.

Effects of aging on dentin bonding and mechanical properties of restorative glass ionomer cements.
Creators: name: Chander, Kunal
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: Objectives: To examine changes in shear bond strength to dentin (SBS), flexural strength (FS) and diametral tensile strength (DTS) of four restorative glass ionomer cements: Fuji II LC (GC/America), Equia (GC/America), Ketac Nano (3M/ESPE), and Ketac Molar (3M/ESPE) after aging in artificial saliva. Materials and Methods: For SBS testing, sound extracted human permanent molars were ground to flat occlusal dentin surfaces and fixed in circular molds with auto-cured acrylic resin.. Teeth were randomly divided into four groups: Fuji II LC, Equia, Ketac Nano, Ketac Molar. For each dentin surface, two glass ionomer cylinders were bonded. Specimens were stored in artificial saliva (37°C) and tested at 24-hour and 6-month time points (Shear Testing Machine, Bisco). For each material, FS bars (25mm x 2mm x 2mm) and DS discs (4mm x 2mm) were fabricated, stored in artificial saliva (37°C), and tested at 24-hour and 6-month time points. (Shimadzu). An additional FS study was conducted with glass ionomer specimens, stored either in distilled water or artificial saliva (37°C), and tested at 24-hour and 2-month time points. (Shimadzu). Data analysis included two-way ANOVA (p<0.05) with post-hoc Tukey’s tests to compare interactions. Results: There were no significant differences in SBS after 6 months storage, except for Ketac Nano, which showed a significant decrease in bond strength after aging. There were no differences in SBS among the four glass ionomers, at 24 hours or 6 months saliva storage. The diametral tensile strength values did not change significantly after aging except for Fuji II LC. All materials had a significant increase in flexural strength after aging regardless of the storage media (water or saliva). Fuji II LC had significantly higher DS and FS compared to other materials, at both 24 hours and 6 months storage. Conclusions: Aging did not affect SBS of materials except Ketac Nano. Flexural strength of all glass ionomer cements increased over time. Storage media did not affect flexural strength properties. Diametral tensile strength remained unchanged over time for all materials. Overall, Fuji II LC had superior mechanical properties compared to other materials.

description: The electromagnetic decay $Σ^0(1385) \to Λγ$ was studied using the CLAS detector at the Thomas Jefferson National Accelerator Facility. A real photon beam with a maximum energy of 3.8 GeV was incident on a proton target, producing an exclusive final state of $K^+Σ^{*0}$. We report the decay widths ratio $Σ^0(1385) \to Λγ$/ $Σ^0(1385) \to Λπ^0$ = $1.42 \pm 0.12(\text{stat})_{-0.07}^{+0.11}(\text{sys})$%. This ratio is larger than most theoretical predictions by factors ranging from 1.5-3, but is consistent with the only other experimental measurement. From the reported ratio we calculate the partial width and electromagnetic transition magnetic moment for $Σ^0(1385) \to Λγ$.

description: In the present work we investigate two-terminal electron transport through a finite width kagome lattice nanoribbon in presence of a perpendicular magnetic field. We employ a simple tight-binding (T-B) Hamiltonian to describe the system and obtain the transmission properties by using Green's function technique within the framework of Landauer-Büttiker formalism. After presenting an analytical description of energy dispersion relation of a kagome nanoribbon in presence of the magnetic field, we investigate numerically the transmittance spectra together with the density of states and current-voltage characteristics. It is shown that for a specific value of the Fermi energy the kagome network can exhibit a magnetic field induced metal-insulator transition which is the central investigation of this communication. Our analysis may be inspiring in designing low-dimensional switching devices.

Temporal trends and biogeochemical controls on methane and nitrous-oxide distributions in coastal waters of the subarctic Pacific Ocean
Creators: name: Capelle, David
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: This PhD thesis examines the marine cycling of the greenhouse gases methane (CH₄) and nitrous-oxide (N₂O) in coastal British Columbia waters. The primary objectives of the work were to increase spatial and temporal data availability in an under-sampled coastal region, and to examine the processes responsible for CH₄ and N₂O distributions, and their sensitivity to changing environmental conditions (e.g. O₂-availability). Using a novel high-throughput analytical system, based on purge and trap gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), we measured a 6 year time-series of monthly water column CH₄ and N₂O profiles from Saanich Inlet, British Columbia, as well as three years of water column profiles and surface measurements along the West coast of Vancouver Island (WCVI). The physical and biological processes responsible for the observed CH₄ and N₂O distributions were investigated using relationships with ancillary physical data and biological data, including recently available meta-genomic information. The results presented in this thesis document a dominant role for O₂ concentrations in driving spatial and temporal variability in CH₄ and N₂O concentrations over a range of scales. In Saanich Inlet, the seasonal cycle of anoxia and deep water renewal exerts a primary control on water column N₂O and CH₄ accumulation, with additional likely contributions from sedimentary processes and in situ cycling of various nitrogen species and methylated compounds in the upper water column. In both Saanich Inlet and the WCVI, inter-annual variability and longer-term trends are associated with changes in upwelling intensity and El Nino events, and these changes are set against a background of declining O₂ concentrations across the Subarctic Pacific. Results from our work suggest that coastal CH₄ and N₂O concentrations may be responding significantly to these long-term declines in O₂ levels, with significant implications for regional sea-air fluxes of climate-active trace gases.
Organizational effects of gonadal hormones on the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis and glucocorticoid receptor responses in male and female rats
Creators: name: Innala, Leyla
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: Neonatal gonadal hormones during critical periods of development can irreversibly alter the adult hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis. The aims of this thesis were to investigate the role of neonatal gonadal hormones to 1. have direct organizational effects on the HPA axis or via indirect effects on corticosterone binding globulin that lead to compensatory changes in HPA output and 2. if changes in HPA output are met by changes in glucocorticoid receptor (GR) responses. To assesses these questions, the neonatal hormone milieu in Long Evan rats were manipulated in males by blocking the conversion of testosterone to estradiol with an aromatase blocker (ATD) and in females by administering testosterone propionate (TP). As adults, we assessed the influence of neonatal hormone manipulations on plasma corticosterone levels and GR activation in response to acute and repeated restraint exposure. GR responses were assessed using western blots to analyze GR translocation (nuclear/ nuclear and cytoplasm) and phosphorylation of GR at the serine 211 site (Ser211). We then assessed if changes in GR translocation and Ser211 followed restraint induced changes in total and estimated free CORT levels. Our results showed significant differences in corticosterone levels in neonatal ATD treated male and TP treated female rats compared to their same sex control groups under basal-naïve conditions and after restraint exposure, respectively. In both sexes, for GR translocation and Ser211, there was a main effect of restraint stress exposure, and overall significant positive correlations with CORT (total and estimated free) levels. GR translocation was lower in neonatal TP treated females, with no effect in Ser211. Differences between male neonatal ATD and Sham groups were observed compared to untouched controls in Ser211, indicating the effects of the neonatal ATD treatment appear to be due to effects of surgery and gonadal hormone milieu exposure. Adult gonadal hormone levels differed between female neonatal groups, which are likely due to organizational effects of the neonatal treatments. The current study demonstrates neonatal gonadal hormones have long lasting effects on adult corticosterone outputs and sequential GR responses.

description: One of the oldest and most useful reactions in organic chemistry is the Fischer indole synthesis (FIS). It is known to have a wide variety of applications including the synthesis of indole rings, often present as the framework in the total synthesis of natural products, particularly those found in the realm of alkaloids, which comprise a ring system known as an indole alkaloid. In this review, we are trying to emphasize the applications of FIS as an old reaction, which is currently applied to the total synthesis of biologically active natural products and some other complex targets.

Gender Differences in the Relationship Between Body-Esteem, Depressive Symptoms, and Academic Performance Among Adolescents
Creators: name: Pei, Yifei
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: The study sought to understand the relationship between body esteem, depressive moods, and academic achievement among adolescents. No prior study examined the relationships between body esteem, depression, and academic achievement by gender. This study aimed to investigate whether gender differences exist in 1) the relationship between body esteem and academic performance, 2) the relationship between depressive symptoms and academic performance, and 3) the relationship between body esteem and depressive symptoms. The analyses yielded evidence that suggested the possibility of gender differences in the relationship between measures of body esteem and weighted GPA and in the relationship between measures of body esteem and depressive symptoms. A positive correlation between general body esteem and academic performance was found only in boys. Negative correlations between all measures of body esteem and depressive symptoms were only found in girls.

description: In a recent article (P.Wochner et al., PNAS (2009)) x-ray scattering intensity correlations around a ring, in the speckle diffraction pattern of a colloidal glass, were shown to display a remarkable ~ cos(n $ϕ$) dependence on the angular coordinate $ϕ$ around the ring, with integer index n depending on the magnitude of the scattering wavevector. With an analytical derivation that preserves full generality in the Fraunhofer diffraction limit, we clarify the relationship of this result to previous x-ray studies of bond-orientation order, and provide a sound basis to the statement that the angular intensity correlations deliver information on local bond arrangements in a disordered (or partially ordered) system. We present a detailed analysis of the angular cross-correlation function and show its applicability for studies of wide range of structural properties of disordered systems, from local structure to spatial correlations between distant structural elements.

Large CP Violation in B_s Meson Mixing with EDM constraint in Supersymmetry

Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: Motivated by the recent measurement of the like-sign dimuon charge asymmetry, we investigate anomalous CP violation in the B_s- bar{B}_s mixing within the supersymmetry. We show that when gluino diagrams dominate supersymmetry contributions, it is very difficult to realize a large B_s- bar{B}_s mixing phase under the constraint from electric dipole moments barring cancellations. This constraint can be ameliorated by supposing superparticles decoupled. In this limit, we find that it is possible to achieve the large CP asymmetry, and the branching ratio of B_s -> mu^+ mu^- tends to become sizable.

Quantum Gravity Corrections and Entropy at the Planck time

description: We investigate the effects of Quantum Gravity on the Planck era of the universe. In particular, using different versions of the Generalized Uncertainty Principle and under specific conditions we find that the main Planck quantities such as the Planck time, length, mass and energy become larger by a factor of order 10-10^{4} compared to those quantities which result from the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle. However, we prove that the dimensionless entropy enclosed in the cosmological horizon at the Planck time remains unchanged. These results, though preliminary, indicate that we should anticipate modifications in the set-up of cosmology since changes in the Planck era will be inherited even to the late universe through the framework of Quantum Gravity (or Quantum Field Theory) which utilizes the Planck scale as a fundamental one. More importantly, these corrections will not affect the entropic content of the universe at the Planck time which is a crucial element for one of the basic principles of Quantum Gravity named Holographic Principle.

Comment on "Modifying the variational principle in the action integral functional derivation of time-dependent density functional theory" by Jochen Schirmer [arXiv:1010.4223]
Creators: name: Vignale, Giovanni
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Other Condensed Matter (cond-mat.other)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In a paper recently published in Phys. Rev. A [arXiv:1010.4223], Schirmer has criticized an earlier work of mine [arXiv:0803.2727], as well as the foundations of time-dependent density functional theory. In Ref.[2], I showed that the so-called "causality paradox" - i.e., the failure of the exchange-correlation potential derived from the Runge-Gross time-dependent variational principle to satisfy causality requirements - can be solved by a careful reformulation of that variational principle. Fortunately, the criticism presented in Ref.[1] is based on elementary misunderstandings of the nature of functionals, gauge transformations, and the time-dependent variational principle. In this Comment I wish to point out and clear these misunderstandings.

Childhood aggression and executive functioning : variations across boys and girls
Creators: name: Moore, Jessica
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: Childhood aggression has long been a significant concern for researchers, practitioners and policy makers alike, due to its ominous connection to psychological maladjustment in both its perpetrators and victims. As modern theories of the origins of aggression shift to incorporate the role of neuropsychological risk factors, increasing empirical attention has been paid to executive functioning and its link to childhood aggression. Recent developmental research has documented links between executive functioning deficits and physical aggression, but the role of executive functioning in physical aggression’s more cognitively complex counterpart, relational aggression, is less established and may differ across boys and girls. The current study attempted to replicate and extend recent findings regarding sex differences in the associations between executive functioning and physical versus relational aggression in preschool-aged children, as well as examine differences in parent and teacher ratings of executive functioning and aggression. The results of a standard multiple regression indicated several key and significant findings. Replicating previous findings, boys were found to be more physically aggressive than girls, but there were no sex differences in levels of relational aggression. Also consistent with previous research, children who were high in physically aggressive behaviors were found to display elevated deficits in executive functioning according to both teachers and parents, especially “hot” EFs - inhibition, shifting and emotional control. In terms of relational aggression, parent ratings of poor emotional control predicted relational aggression in both boys and girls. Teacher ratings indicated marginal sex differences. Specifically, for girls, deficits in inhibition and shifting and working memory were associated with higher ratings of relational aggression, but for boys, poor inhibition predicted higher relational aggression. The results of the current study lend some support for a sex-specific model of EF and aggression.

description: Within a Kondo lattice, the strong hybridization between electrons localized in real space (r-space) and those delocalized in momentum-space (k-space) generates exotic electronic states called 'heavy fermions'. In URu2Si2 these effects begin at temperatures around 55K but they are suddenly altered by an unidentified electronic phase transition at To = 17.5 K. Whether this is conventional ordering of the k-space states, or a change in the hybridization of the r-space states at each U atom, is unknown. Here we use spectroscopic imaging scanning tunnelling microscopy (SI-STM) to image the evolution of URuSi2 electronic structure simultaneously in r-space and k-space. Above To, the 'Fano lattice' electronic structure predicted for Kondo screening of a magnetic lattice is revealed. Below To, a partial energy gap without any associated density-wave signatures emerges from this Fano lattice. Heavy-quasiparticle interference imaging within this gap reveals its cause as the rapid splitting below To of a light k-space band into two new heavy fermion bands. Thus, the URu2Si2 'hidden order' state emerges directly from the Fano lattice electronic structure and exhibits characteristics, not of a conventional density wave, but of sudden alterations in both the hybridization at each U atom and the associated heavy fermion states.

description: The band structure computation turns into solving a family of Maxwell eigenvalue problems on the periodicity domain. The discretization is done by the finite element method with special higher order H(curl)- and H1-conforming modified elements. The eigenvalue problem is solved by a preconditioned iterative eigenvalue solver with a projection onto the divergence-free vector fields. As a preconditioner we use the parallel multigrid method with a special Hiptmair smoother.
