description: Classical ion mobility spectrometers (IMS) operated at ambient pressure, often use atmospheric pressure chemical ionization (APCI) sources to ionize organic compounds. In APCI, reactant ions ionize neutral analyte molecules via gas-phase ion–molecule reactions. The positively charged reactant ions in purified, dry air are H3O+, NO+, and O2+•. However, the hydration of reactant ions in classical IMS operated at ambient pressure renders ionization of certain analytes difficult. In contrast to classical IMS operated at ambient pressure, High Kinetic Energy Ion Mobility Spectrometers (HiKE-IMS) are operated at a decreased pressure of 10–40 mbar, allowing operation at high reduced electric field strengths of up to 120 Td. At such high reduced field strengths, ions reach high effective temperatures causing collision-induced cluster dissociation of the hydrated gas-phase ions, allowing ionization of nonpolar and low proton affinity analytes. The reactant ion population, consisting of H3O+(H2O)n, NO+(H2O)m, and O2+•(H2O)p with an individual abundance that strongly depends on the reduced field strength, differs from the reactant ion population in IMS operated at ambient pressure, which affects the ionization of analyte molecules. In this work, we investigate the influence of reduced field strength on the product ion formation of aromatic hydrocarbons used as model substances. A HiKE-IMS-MS coupling was used to identify the detected ion species. The results show that the analytes form parent cations via charge transfer with NO+(H2O)m and O2+•(H2O)p depending on ionization energy and protonated parent molecules via proton transfer and ligand switching with H3O+(H2O)n mainly depending on proton affinity.

description: High Kinetic Energy Ion Mobility Spectrometers (HiKE-IMS) chemically ionize gaseous samples via reactant ions and separate the generated ions by their motion in a neutral gas under the influence of an electric field. Operation at reduced pressures of 10–40 mbar allows for reaching high reduced electric field strengths (E/N) of up to 120 Td. At these high E/N, the generated ions gain the namesake high kinetic energies, leading to a decrease in cluster size of the reactant ions by increasing the reaction rate of collision-induced cluster dissociation of hydrates. In positive ion polarity and in purified air, H3O+(H2O)n, NO+(H2O)n, and O2+•(H2O)p are the most abundant reactant ions. In this work, we investigate the effect of varying sample gas humidity on product ion formation for several model substances. Results show that increasing the sample gas humidity at high E/N of 120 Td shifts product ion formation from a charge transfer dominated reaction system to a proton transfer dominated reaction system. For HiKE-IMS operated at high E/N, the reduction in cluster size of reactant ions allows ionization of analytes with low proton affinity even at high relative humidity in the sample gas of RH = 75% at 303.15 K and 1013.25 hPa. In contrast to conventional IMS, where increasing the sample gas humidity inhibits ionization for various analytes, increasing sample gas humidity in HiKE-IMS operated at 120 Td is actually beneficial for ionization yield of most analytes investigated in this work as it increases the number of H3O+(H2O)n.

Goodness of fit in nonlinear dynamics: Misspecified rates or misspecified states?

description: This paper introduces diagnostic tests for the nature of lack of fit in ordinary differential equation models (ODEs) proposed for data. We present a hierarchy of three possible sources of lack of fit: unaccounted-for stochastic variation, misspecification of functional forms in rate equations, and omission of dynamic variables in the description of the system. We represent lack of fit by allowing a parameter vector to vary over time, and propose generic testing procedures that do not rely on specific alternative models. Instead, different sources for lack of fit are characterized in terms of nonparametric relationships among latent variables. The tests are carried out through a combination of residual bootstrap and permutation methods. We demonstrate the effectiveness of these tests on simulated data and on real data from laboratory ecological experiments and electro-cardiogram data.

description: In any parametric inference problem, the robustness of the procedure is a real concern. A procedure which retains a high degree of efficiency under the model and simultaneously provides stable inference under data contamination is preferable in any practical situation over another procedure which achieves its efficiency at the cost of robustness or vice versa. The density power divergence family of Basu et al. (1998) provides a flexible class of divergences where the adjustment between efficiency and robustness is controlled by a single parameter $β$. In this paper we consider general tests of parametric hypotheses based on the density power divergence. We establish the asymptotic null distribution of the test statistic and explore its asymptotic power function. Numerical results illustrate the performance of the theory developed.

description: A method for selecting solution constructors in narrowing is presented. The method is based on a sort discipline that describes regular sets of ground constructor terms as sorts. It is extended to cope with regular sets of ground substitutions, thus allowing different sorts to be computed for terms with different variable bindings. An algorithm for computing signatures of equationally defined functions is given that allows potentially infinite overloading. Applications to formal program development are sketched.

description: Based on recent findings by Bourguin and Peccati, we give a fourth moment type condition for an element of a free Poisson chaos of arbitrary order to converge to a free (centered) Poisson distribution. We also show that free Poisson chaos of order strictly greater than one do not contain any non-zero free Poisson random variables. We are also able to give a sufficient and necessary condition for an element of the first free Poisson chaos to have a free Poisson distribution. Finally, depending on the parity of the considered free Poisson chaos, we provide a general counterexample to the naive universality of the semicircular Wigner chaos established by Deya and Nourdin as well as a transfer principle between the Wigner and the free Poisson chaos.

description: Adversity has been assumed to foster positive personality change under certain conditions. In this article, we examine this assumption within the context of the three-tier personality framework integrating traits, characteristic adaptations, and narrative identity to provide a comprehensive understanding of personality growth. We first review findings on how adverse events affect personality on each of these three levels. Second, we summarize knowledge on event-based and person-based predictors of personality change in the face of adversity. Third, we specify affective, behavioral, and cognitive processes that explain personality change across levels of personality. Innovatively, our proposed process model addresses change at all three levels of personality, as well as similarities and differences in processes across the levels. We conclude by discussing unresolved issues, asking critical questions, and posing challenging hypotheses for testing this framework.

description: Using the AdS/CFT correspondence, we compute analytically the late-time behavior of two-point functions, Wilson loops and entanglement entropy in a strongly coupled $\mathcal{N}=4$ super-Yang-Mills plasma undergoing a boost-invariant expansion. We take into account the effects of first order dissipative hydrodynamics and investigate the effects of the (time-dependent) shear viscosity on the various observables. The two-point functions decay exponentially at late times and are unaffected by the viscosity if the points are separated along the transverse directions. For longitudinal separation we find a much richer structure. In this case the exponential is modulated by a nonmonotonic function of the rapidities and a dimensionless combination of the shear viscosity and proper time. We show that this peculiar behavior constrains the regime of validity of the hydrodynamical expansion. In addition, similar results are found for certain Wilson loops and entanglement entropies.

description: We study the House Allocation problem (also known as the Assignment problem), i.e., the problem of allocating a set of objects among a set of agents, where each agent has ordinal preferences (possibly involving ties) over a subset of the objects. We focus on truthful mechanisms without monetary transfers for finding large Pareto optimal matchings. It is straightforward to show that no deterministic truthful mechanism can approximate a maximum cardinality Pareto optimal matching with ratio better than 2. We thus consider randomised mechanisms. We give a natural and explicit extension of the classical Random Serial Dictatorship Mechanism (RSDM) specifically for the House Allocation problem where preference lists can include ties. We thus obtain a universally truthful randomised mechanism for finding a Pareto optimal matching and show that it achieves an approximation ratio of $\frac{e}{e-1}$. The same bound holds even when agents have priorities (weights) and our goal is to find a maximum weight (as opposed to maximum cardinality) Pareto optimal matching. On the other hand we give a lower bound of $\frac{18}{13}$ on the approximation ratio of any universally truthful Pareto optimal mechanism in settings with strict preferences. In the case that the mechanism must additionally be non-bossy with an additional technical assumption, we show by utilising a result of Bade that an improved lower bound of $\frac{e}{e-1}$ holds. This lower bound is tight since RSDM for strict preference lists is non-bossy. We moreover interpret our problem in terms of the classical secretary problem and prove that our mechanism provides the best randomised strategy of the administrator who interviews the applicants.

description: The hyaluronic acid is a glycosaminoglycan which is synthesized in the plasma membrane of many cells. Its metabolism is regulated by hyaluronan synthases and hyaluronidases. It is an essential component of synovial fluid responsible for its lubricity and its damping properties. In addition to its structural role, hyaluronic acid regulates the immune response, angiogenesis, inflammation and the tissue healing. There are two methods for obtaining hyaluronic acids used in therapeutic: bacterial fermentation and extraction from cock crest. This polysaccharide has distinguishing physiochemical properties which inspire its application throughout several fields of medicine especially in rheumatology.

description: In this work we derive the asymptotic quasi-normal modes of a BTZ black hole using a quantum field theoretic Lagrangian. The BTZ black hole is a very popular system in the context of $2+1$-dimensional quantum gravity. However to our knowledge the quasi-normal modes of the BTZ black hole have been studied only in the classical domain. Here we show a way to quantize the quasi-normal modes of the BTZ black hole by mapping it to the Bateman-Feschbach-Tikochinsky oscillator and the Caldirola-Kanai oscillator. We have also discussed a couple of other black hole potentials to which this method can be applied

description: Family planning has been characterized by highly different strategic programs in India, including method-specific contraceptive targets, coercive sterilization, and more recent target-free approaches. These major changes in family planning policies over time have motivated a considerable interest towards assessing the effectiveness of the different programs, while understanding which subsets of the population have not been properly addressed. Current studies consider specific aspects of the above policies, including, for example, the factors associated with the choice of alternative contraceptive methods other than sterilization, for women using contraceptives. Although these analyses produce relevant insights, they fail to provide a global overview of the different family planning policies, and the determinants underlying the contraceptive choices. Motivated by this consideration, we propose a Bayesian semiparametric model relying on a reparameterization of the multinomial probability mass function via a set of conditional Bernoulli choices. The sequential binary structure is defined to be consistent with the current family planning policies in India, and coherent with a reasonable process characterizing the contraceptive choices. This combination of flexible representations and careful reparameterizations allows a broader and interpretable overview of the different policies and contraceptive preferences in India, within a single model.

description: We propose a new family of subgradient- and gradient-based methods which converges with optimal complexity for convex optimization problems whose feasible region is simple enough. This includes cases where the objective function is non-smooth, smooth, have composite/saddle structure, or are given by an inexact oracle model. We unified the way of constructing the subproblems which are necessary to be solved at each iteration of these methods. This permitted us to analyze the convergence of these methods in a unified way compared to previous results which required different approaches for each method/algorithm. Our contribution rely on two well-known methods in non-smooth convex optimization: the mirror-descent method by Nemirovski-Yudin and the dual-averaging method by Nesterov. Therefore, our family of methods includes them and many other methods as particular cases. For instance, the proposed family of classical gradient methods and its accelerations generalize Devolder et al.'s, Nesterov's primal/dual gradient methods, and Tseng's accelerated proximal gradient methods. Also our family of methods can partially become special cases of other universal methods, too. As an additional contribution, the novel extended mirror-descent method removes the compactness assumption of the feasible region and the fixation of the total number of iterations which is required by the original mirror-descent method in order to attain the optimal complexity.

Multi-user guesswork and brute force security

description: The Guesswork problem was originally motivated by a desire to quantify computational security for single user systems. Leveraging recent results from its analysis, we extend the remit and utility of the framework to the quantification of the computational security for multi-user systems. In particular, assume that $V$ users independently select strings stochastically from a finite, but potentially large, list. An inquisitor who does not know which strings have been selected wishes to identify $U$ of them. The inquisitor knows the selection probabilities of each user and is equipped with a method that enables the testing of each (user, string) pair, one at a time, for whether that string had been selected by that user. Here we establish that, unless $U=V$, there is no general strategy that minimizes the distribution of the number of guesses, but in the asymptote as the strings become long we prove the following: by construction, there is an asymptotically optimal class of strategies; the number of guesses required in an asymptotically optimal strategy satisfies a large deviation principle with a rate function, which is not necessarily convex, that can be determined from the rate functions of optimally guessing individual users' strings; if all user's selection statistics are identical, the exponential growth rate of the average guesswork as the string-length increases is determined by the specific Rényi entropy of the string-source with parameter $(V-U+1)/(V-U+2)$, generalizing the known $V=U=1$ case; and that the Shannon entropy of the source is a lower bound on the average guesswork growth rate for all $U$ and $V$, thus providing a bound on computational security for multi-user systems. Examples are presented to illustrate these results and their ramifications for systems design.
Mental Health in Museums : Exploring the reactions of visitors and community groups to mental health exhibitions

description: Recent changes in museological thought and practice have centred on the need for museums to address difficult social issues and to become more inclusive of a diverse range of peoples’ thoughts, opinions and beliefs. Yet, the topic of mental health has received little attention from heritage practitioners and museum scholars in this regard. This study addresses this gap by looking at four exhibitions (two in the UK and two in Australia) that discussed mental health issues and engaged mental health community groups in various stages of the exhibition development process. Open-ended interviews with 358 visitors, nine curators and 10 mental health community members and organisations were undertaken to better understand how visitors and community members were utilising these exhibitions. In particular, Smith’s idea that visitors attend exhibition spaces in order to reaffirm their commitments to certain beliefs, values and identity structures is assessed in relation to these exhibitions. This is done to examine if her findings held true in the context of exhibitions designed to inform and educate visitors about mental health. The notion that mental health community groups will have specific needs that curators should take into account during collaboration processes is also addressed. An overarching theme that emerged in this study is that mental illnesses possess the ability to challenge peoples’ perceptions of control over their health and rationality. This study argues that certain visitors were interested in exploring the confronting nature of mental illnesses. Others made efforts to avoid or disengage when asked to reflect on the uncomfortable nature of mental health issues. Conversely, mental health community members wished to openly discuss the hard realities involved with living with mental illnesses and felt museums were reinforcing stigmatised outcomes when curators hesitated to exhibit these more difficult elements of mental health. This study argues that a balance must be struck between community interests in advocating about mental health issues and the desire of visitors to feel comfortable during their visits. It suggests that such discussions could help to create more considered frameworks for working with communities with experiences of mental illness and more valuable museum experiences for those visitors who attend such exhibitions.
Sub-thesis : Part 1 Building the Connections : Part 2: The Experience of Body Objects

Subjects: subject: Jewelry Australia Canberra (A.C.T.)
subject: Architect-designed jewelry

description: The sub-thesis is divided into two sections. Part 1: Building the Connections opens the dialogue by identifying relevant architectural theory, establishing key zones of interpenetration between architecture and jewellery and exploring the nature of these connections. This section comprises three parts: space, scale and ornament. Part 2: The Experience of Body Obiects examines the nature of the experiential connections by analysing the experiences of wearable objects in relation to spatial, sensory and temporal criteria. The broad context for the sub-thesis is the practice and theoretical discourses of architecture and jewellery. Architectural thought and analysis is used to examine wearable objects. The confrontation between space and the activity of wearing an object on the body is discussed within the realms of architectural theory and built works that address the concepts of space, scale, ornament, time and the senses. In the sub-thesis the term 'architecture' refers to the thought processes and actions that contribute to the design and construction of edifices for human use. Where the term 'building' is employed, this describes the physical embodiment of these actions: the definitive form, the solid and the void, the inside and the outside and the surface planes and textures that collectively describe the edifice. Jewellery material selected for study includes wearable and other small objects constructed by Western practitioners during the latter part of the twentieth century and early twentyfirst century.

description: Management of live cetacean strandings generally focuses on refloating animals, yet there is a lack of scientific data to inform decision-making. Valid indicators that are practical to measure are needed to assess welfare status and survival likelihood for stranded cetaceans. The Delphi method was applied to gather international and interdisciplinary expert opinion to provide face validity to potential indicators of stranded cetacean welfare and survival likelihood. Two online questionnaires were conducted. In the first questionnaire these experts identified potential indicators of stranded cetacean welfare and survival likelihood. These indicators were subsequently scored by the same experts in questionnaire two, based on their value for assessing welfare/survival likelihood and being practical to measure. Indicators considered valuable and practical for assessing welfare and survival likelihood at strandings included animal-based indices of body and skin condition, signs of physical trauma, respiration rate and various behaviours. Resource-/management-based indicators related mainly to human intervention and should be correlated with animal-based indices to provide relevant evaluations. Importantly, inextricable links between welfare and survival for stranded cetaceans are emphasized, with 90% of indicators being similar for both. Investigations into these indicators should be conducted to develop a practical, science-based assessment framework to inform decision-making during stranding events.

description: We give necessary integral conditions and sufficient ones for the existence of a general concept of $μ$-dichotomy for evolution operators defined on the half-line which includes as particular cases the well-known concepts of nonuniform exponential dichotomy and nonuniform polynomial dichotomy, and also contains new situations. Additionally, we consider an adapted notion of Lyapunov function and use our results to obtain necessary and sufficient conditions for the existence of nonuniform $μ$-dichotomies using these Lyapunov functions.

description: A scheme is proposed to construct integer and fractional topological quantum states of fermions in two spatial dimensions. We devise models for such states by coupling wires of non-chiral Luttinger liquids of electrons, that are arranged in a periodic array. Which inter-wire couplings are allowed is dictated by symmetry and the compatibility criterion that they can simultaneously acquire a finite expectation value, opening a spectral gap between the ground state(s) and all excited states in the bulk. First, with these criteria at hand, we reproduce the tenfold classification table of integer topological insulators, where their stability against interactions becomes immediately transparent in the Luttinger liquid description. Second, we construct an example of a strongly interacting fermionic topological phase of matter with short-range entanglement that lies outside of the tenfold classification. Third, we expand the table to long-range entangled topological phases with intrinsic topological order and fractional excitations.
