description: В статье подводятся итоги изучения связки листов на тибетском языке, преимущественно происходящих из Калмыкии и датируемых XVIII в. Особенно подробно представлены характеристика реставрационных действий и анализ выявленных филиграней российских и европейских бумажных фабрик. Датировка этих филиграней (по справочникам С. А. Клепикова и Н. П. Лихачева) подтверждает гипотезу о том, что рукописи были найдены и доставлены в Санкт-Петербург после 1771 г., когда большая часть калмыков откочевала в Центральную Азию. Комплексное изучение этих и других калмыцких рукописей на тибетском языке имеет важное значение для выявления особенностей локальной ойрат-калмыцкой традиции создания книг на тибетском языке, а также круга сочинений, имевших хождение в  среде калмыцких буддистов в XVIII в. Сенсационным результатом изучения связки листов следует признать выявление в ней нескольких листов, которые с высокой степенью вероятности относятся к  сибирской коллекции Д. Г. Мессершмидта, привезенной им в Санкт-Петербург в 1727 г.

description: A method to construct transition curves using a family of the quartic Bezier spiral is described. The transition curves discussed are S-shape and C-shape of contact, between two separated circles. A spiral is a curve of monotone increasing or monotone decreasing curvature of one sign. Thus, a spiral cannot have an inflection point or curvature extreme. The family of quartic Bezier spiral form which is introduced has more degrees of freedom and will give a better approximation. It is proved that the methods of constructing transition curves can be simplified by the transformation process and the ratio of two radii has no restriction, which extends the application area, and it gives a family of transition curves that allow more flexible curve designs.

description: The inflaton must convert its energy into radiation after inflation, which, in a conventional scenario, is caused by the perturbative inflaton decay. This reheating process would be much more complicated in some cases: the decay products obtain masses from an oscillating inflaton and thermal environment, and hence the conventional reheating scenario can be modified. We study in detail processes of particle production from the inflaton, their subsequent thermalization and evolution of inflaton/plasma system by taking dissipation of the inflaton in a hot plasma into account. It is shown that the reheating temperature is significantly affected by these effects.

description: For several decades, a leading paradigm of how to quantitatively assess scientific research has been the analysis of the aggregated citation information in a set of scientific publications. Although the representation of this information as a citation network has already been coined in the 1960s, it needed the systematic indexing of scientific literature to allow for impact metrics that actually made use of this network as a whole improving on the then prevailing metrics that were almost exclusively based on the number of direct citations. However, besides focusing on the assignment of credit, the paper citation network can also be studied in terms of the proliferation of scientific ideas. Here we introduce a simple measure based on the shortest-paths in the paper's in-component or, simply speaking, on the shape and size of the wake of a paper within the citation network. Applied to a citation network containing Physical Review publications from more than a century, our approach is able to detect seminal articles which have introduced concepts of obvious importance to the further development of physics. We observe a large fraction of papers co-authored by Nobel Prize laureates in physics among the top-ranked publications.

description: We study weak amenability for locally compact quantum groups in the sense of Kustermans and Vaes. In particular, we focus on non-discrete examples. We prove that a coamenable quantum group is weakly amenable if there exists a net of positive, scaling invariant elements in the Fourier algebra A(G) whose representing multipliers form an approximate identity in C_0(G) that is bounded in the M_0A(G) norm; the bound being an upper estimate for the associated Cowling-Haagerup constant. As an application, we find the appropriate approximation properties of the extended quantum SU(1,1) group and its dual. That is, we prove that it is weakly amenable and coamenable. Furthermore, it has the Haagerup property in the quantum group sense, introduced by Daws, Fima, Skalski and White.

On messengers couplings in extended GMSB models

description: We discuss, for the first time, the role of the superpotential couplings of three messenger fields in a GMSB-type unification model in which messenger sector consists of both 5+5bar and 10+10bar of SU(5). It turns out that these interactions are relevant when coexist with appropriate messenger-MSSM couplings. Then they induce extra contributions to 2-loop soft masses. In the present model, we derive all such soft terms and discuss constraints which have to be satisfied to avoid rapid proton decay and mu/B_mu problem. As an example, it is shown how superpotential couplings of three messengers influence mass spectra when the model is restricted by additional global U(1)_q symmetry. We find that masses of the lightest sleptons are the most sensitive to those new interactions, what in some cases results in the NLSP/NNLSP pattern in which stau or selectron is lighter than the lightest neutralino.

description: Computing the viability kernel is key in providing guarantees of safety and proving existence of safety-preserving controllers for constrained dynamical systems. Current numerical techniques that approximate this construct suffer from a complexity that is exponential in the dimension of the state. We study conditions under which a linear time-invariant (LTI) system can be suitably decomposed into lower-dimensional subsystems so as to admit a conservative computation of the viability kernel in a decentralized fashion in subspaces. We then present an isomorphism that imposes these desired conditions, particularly on two-time-scale systems. Decentralized computations are performed in the transformed coordinates, yielding a conservative approximation of the viability kernel in the original state space. Significant reduction of complexity can be achieved, allowing the previously inapplicable tools to be employed for treatment of higher-dimensional systems. We show the results on two examples including a 6D system.

description: We report an electric field driven destabilization of the insulating state in nominally pure LaMnO3 single crystal with a moderate field which leads to a resistive state transition below 300 K. The transition is between the insulating state in LaMnO3 and a high resistance bad metallic state that has a temperature independent resistivity. The transition occurs at a threshold field (Eth) which shows a steep enhancement on cooling. While at lower temperatures the transition is sharp and involves large change in resistance but it softens on heating and eventually absent above 280K. When the Mn4+ content is increased by Sr substitution up to x=0.1, the observed transition though observable in certain temperature range, softens considerably. The observation has been explained as bias driven percolation type transition between two coexisting phases, where the majority phase is a charge and orbitally ordered polaronic insulating phase and the minority phase is a bad metallic phase. The mobile fraction f of the bad metallic phase deduced from the experimental data follows an activated kinetics with the activation energy nearly equal to 200 meV and the prefactor fo is a strong function of the field that leads to a rapid enhancement of f on application of field leading to the resistive state transition. We suggest likely scenarios for such co-existing phases in nominally pure LaMnO3 that can lead to the bias driven percolation type transition.

description: We have developed a comprehensive methodology for calculating the boundaries of the habitable zone (HZ) of planet-hosting S-type binary star systems. Our approach is general and takes into account the contribution of both stars to the location and extent of the Binary HZ with different stellar spectral types. We have studied how the binary eccentricity and stellar energy distribution affect the extent of the habitable zone. Results indicate that in binaries where the combination of mass-ratio and orbital eccentricity allows planet formation around a star of the system to proceed successfully, the effect of a less luminous secondary on the location of the primary's habitable zone is generally negligible. However, when the secondary is more luminous, it can influence the extent of the HZ. We present the details of the derivations of our methodology and discuss its application to the Binary HZ around the primary and secondary main sequence stars of an FF, MM, and FM binary, as well as two known planet-hosting binaries alpha Cen AB and HD 196886.

description: In this paper, we analyze the planar cubic Alternative curve to determine the conditions for convex, loops, cusps and inflection points. Thus cubic curve is represented by linear combination of three control points and basis function that consist of two shape parameters. By using algebraic manipulation, we can determine the constraint of shape parameters and sufficient conditions are derived which ensure that the curve is a strictly convex, loops, cusps and inflection point. We conclude the result in a shape diagram of parameters. The simplicity of this form makes characterization more intuitive and efficient to compute.

description: A sizable excess with respect to the SM expectation has been reported recently by the BaBar collaboration in the decay rates B -> D(*) Tau Nu, normalized by the corresponding light lepton modes. A violation of lepton flavor universality as suggested by this excess could be due to a charged Higgs mediating these processes at tree level. In this talk we analyze the implications of the observed excess within the framework of two-Higgs-doublet models, considering also the bounds from other semileptonic and leptonic decays of B and D(s) mesons. Prospects for B -> D(*) Tau Nu decays at future Super-Flavor Factories are also discussed.

description: Two Kerr-squeezed optical beams can be combined in a beamsplitter to produce non-Gaussian continuous-variable entangled states. We characterize the non-Gaussian nature of the output by calculating the third-order cumulant of quadrature variables, and predict the level of entanglement that could be generated by evaluating the Duan-Simon and Reid Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen criteria. These states have the advantage over Gaussian states and non-Gaussian measurement schemes in that the well known, efficient and proven technology of homodyne detection may be used for their characterisation. A physical demonstration maintaining the important features of the model could be realised using two optical fibres, beamsplitters, and homodyne detection.

description: Recently David Jennings and Terry Rudolph published two papers as reaction on Maccone's paper "Quantum Solution to the Arrow-of-Time Dilemma". In these papers, the authors suppose that second law of thermodynamics is not relevant for quantum systems. Unfortunately, these papers did not get relevant reply from Maccone. The reason of this is following. Both Maccone and the above-mentioned authors use thermodynamic law and thermodynamic-like terminology for non-thermodynamic systems, for example, microscopic system of three qubits. However, big size of a system (quantum or classic) is also not an enough condition for a system to be macroscopic. The macroscopic system must also be chaotic and has small chaotic interaction with its environment/observer resulting in decoherence (decorrelation). We demonstrate that for relevant thermodynamic macroscopic quantum systems no objection appears.

title: Evaluation of Airport Operating Efficiencies Using Data Envelopment Analysis
Creators: name: Cummings, Scott Andrew
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries
Year: 1998

description: Airport congestion represents a serious obstacle to the future growth of the air transportation industry in the United States. Future development of new airports, and expansion of existing ones is required to meet the growing demands in domestic and commercial air travel. Globalization of economies and international travel has placed additional burdens on airports nationwide. This growth is requiring airports to operate at peak efficiencies. Economic growth of surrounding industries is dependent on the airport that services that geographical region. The variations in functions that airports offer, and therefore the differences in operations, do not lend themselves to traditional efficiency measures. Determining airport operating efficiencies by Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) techniques may identify operational areas that require adjustments in order to operate efficiently. Airport rankings are determined yearly by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) based on the number of passenger enplanements made at each airport. From the FAA rankings, the top fifteen airports have been selected and their operating efficiencies determined. In addition, five regional airports were selected, and their operating efficiencies determined and compared to the top fifteen ranked airports. These comparisons established what airports operate efficiently, and what is required to make those inefficient airports efficient.
title: Working the News: Preserving Professional Identity Through Networked Journalism at Elite News Media
Creators: name: Hauser, Jenny
Publisher: name: Technological University Dublin
Year: 2019

description: The concept of journalism as a profession has arguably been fraught and contested throughout its existence. Ideologically, it is founded on a claim to norms and a code of ethics, but in the past, news media also held material control over mass communication through broadcast and print which were largely inaccessible to most citizens. The Internet and social media has created a news environment where professional journalists and their work exist side-by-side with non-journalists. In this space, acts of journalism also can be and are carried out by non-journalists. Through the new news distribution channels offered by social media, non-journalists are potentially able to disseminate their texts to wide audiences. In practice this means that journalism is no longer exclusively the domain of the journalist, and has led to the adoption of collaboration as a journalistic convention that presents opportunities but also serious challenges and risks for the professional community. My research aims to contribute to the news discourse concerning emerging professional practices in networked journalism with a focus on how journalistic authority is reasserted within a collaborative news environment. Rather than looking at networked journalism as primarily participatory, this research explores collaborative newswork as a means to carry out professional boundary work and to articulate this to audiences. I argue that the act of collaboration in newswork at times becomes a quasi-ideological project to protect journalism as a profession that lays claim to ethics, norms and routines. The research comprises three case studies of news stories covered by the BBC World Service and the English-language services of France 24 and Al Jazeera. Using quantitative and qualitative analysis methods, they explore how social media was mobilised in the newswork. The aim was to explore how sourcing practices affected the power relationships between primary and secondary definers, and how journalists create and articulate professional boundaries in collaborative newswork. These research findings were triangulated with interviews with social media editors at the three news organisations.

description: We have developed a comprehensive methodology for calculating the circumbinary HZ in planet-hosting P-type binary star systems. We present a general formalism for determining the contribution of each star of the binary to the total flux received at the top of the atmosphere of an Earth-like planet, and use the Sun's HZ to calculate the locations of the inner and outer boundaries of the HZ around a binary star system. We apply our calculations to the Kepler's currently known circumbinary planetary system and show the combined stellar flux that determines the boundaries of their HZs. We also show that the HZ in P-type systems is dynamic and depending on the luminosity of the binary stars, their spectral types, and the binary eccentricity, its boundaries vary as the stars of the binary undergo their orbital motion. We present the details of our calculations and discuss the implications of the results.

description: We design, from first principles calculations, a novel family of thallium halide-based compounds as candidates for new high temperature superconductors, whose superconductivity is mediated by the recently proposed mechanism of non-local correlation-enhanced strong electron-phonon coupling. Two prototype compounds namely CsTlF$_3$ and CsTlCl$_3$ are studied with various hole doping levels and volumes. The critical superconducting temperature T$_c$ are predicted to be about 30 K and 20 K with $\sim$0.35/f.u. hole doping and require only modest pressures ($\sim$10 and $\sim$2 GPa), respectively. Our procedure of designing this class of superconductors is quite general and can be used to search for other "other high temperature superconductors".

description: We investigate how the entanglement characteristics of a non-Gaussian entangled state are increased or decreased by a local photon subtraction operation. The non-Gaussian entangled state is generated by injecting a single-mode non-Gaussian state and a vacuum state into a 50:50 beam splitter. We consider a photon-added coherent state and an odd coherent state as a single-mode non-Gaussian state. In the regime of small amplitude, we show that the performance of quantum teleportation and the second-order Einstein-Podolsky- Rosen-type correlation can both be enhanced, whereas the degree of entanglement decreases, for the output state when a local photon subtraction operation is applied to the non-Gaussian entangled state. The counterintuitive effect is more prominent in the limit of nearly zero amplitude.

description: The log-aesthetic curves include the logarithmic (equiangular) spiral, clothoid, and involute curves. Although most of them are expressed only by an integral form of the tangent vector, it is possible to interactively generate and deform them and they are expected to be utilized for practical use of industrial and graphical design. The discrete log-aesthetic filter based on the formulation of the log-aesthetic curve has successfully been introduced not to impose strong constraints on the designer's activity, to let him/her design freely and to embed the properties of the log-aesthetic curves for complicated ones with both increasing and decreasing curvature. In this paper, in order to define the log-aesthetic surface and develop surface filters based on its formulation, at first we reformulate the log-aesthetic curve with variational principle. Then we propose several new functionals to be minimized for free-form surfaces and define the log-aesthetic surface. Furthermore we propose new discrete surface filters based on the log-aesthetic surface formulation

description: Monitoring galactose levels in dairy products can help to prevent severe complications with a hereditary metabolic disease such as galactosemia, a life-threatening disease. The current state of the art requires the development of less expensive, more reliable and specific methods to determine galactose levels in food in a practical way. We report the development and optimization of an amperometric biosensor for determination of galactose in dairy products based on galactose oxidase (GaOx) co-immobilized with an osmium-complex modified redox polymer on glassy carbon electrodes. To attain the maximum catalytic currents based on mediated electron transfer, two Os-complex based polymers with different redox potentials and different enzyme:redox polymer ratios were studied. The optimized GaOx-modified electrode gave a maximum electrocatalytic response of galactose oxidation that was not affected by the presence of O2, indicating fast wiring of the enzyme by the Os-complex modified redox polymer. The biosensor that gave the best analytical parameters for galactose detection was further tested for measuring galactose concentration in lactose-containing and lactose-free milk and yogurt samples under aerobic conditions. The results obtained with the amperometric biosensor were validated by high-performance anion-exchange chromatography coupled with pulsed amperometric detection (HPAEC-PAD).

description: First-principals calculations show that up-spin and down-spin carriers are accumulating adjacent to opposite surfaces of BiFeO3(BFO) film with applying external bias. The spin carriers are equal in magnitude and opposite in direction, and down-spin carriers move to the direction opposing the external electric field while up-spin ones along the field direction. This novel spin transfer properties make BFO film an intriguing candidate for application in spin capacitor and BFO-based multiferroic field-effect device.

description: A $k$-uniform hypergraph is $s$-almost intersecting if every edge is disjoint from exactly $s$ other edges. Gerbner, Lemons, Palmer, Patkós and Szécsi conjectured that for every $k$, and $s>s_0(k)$, every $k$-uniform $s$-almost intersecting hypergraph has at most $(s+1)\binom{2k-2}{k-1}$ edges. We prove a strengthened version of this conjecture and determine the extremal graphs. We also give some related results and conjectures.

description: We elucidate the effects of chiral quenched disorder on the scaling properties of pure systems by considering a reduced model that is a variant of the quenched disordered cubic anisotropic O(N) model near its second order phase transition. A generic short-ranged Gaussian disorder distribution is considered. For distributions not invariant under spatial inversion ({hence chiral}), the scaling exponents are found to depend continuously on a model parameter that describes the extent of inversion symmetry breaking. Experimental and phenomenological implications of our results are discussed.

description: 本研究采用DNA片段编辑方法通过设计成对sgRNA构建了一系列HOXD基因簇区域CBS反转的单细胞克隆。染色质构象捕获QHR-4C实验显示边界CBS反转会改变原有的染色质环方向，形成新的染色质环，引起染色质拓扑结构域边界漂移至新形成的一对反向-正向CBS处。此外，串联排列的CBS可以通过阻碍反方向渗透的cohesin继续滑动发挥绝缘子的功能。RNA-seq实验发现CBS反转引起的局部基因组空间结构变化会进一步影响基因的表达。上述研究表明一对反向-正向的CBS可以通过与各自所在拓扑结构域内的相向CBS形成染色质环，阻碍cohesin滑动，该发现为进一步研究CTCF的绝缘功能和其对基因组拓扑结构的影响提供了参考。
title: The Generation of Novel Metal-Folate- Phenanthroline Complexes and Phenanthroline-Folate Conjugates with Potential as Chemotherapeutic Agents
Creators: name: Crowley, Aisling

description: The folate receptor (FR) was identified in 1986 and has been established as a ‘molecular Trojan Horse’ target for the uptake of folate-conjugated organic molecules into cells. The FR is overexpressed in many malignancies, including those of the ovary, uterus, breast, cervix, and prostate, yet it is reportedly under-expressed in normal healthy cells. This difference in expression and the high affinity/specificity of folate towards the folate receptor presents a promising drug delivery system. The aim of this research was to utilise folic acid as a targeting moiety and generate simple metal folate and novel folate-phenanthroline complexes with cytotoxic properties. A challenging set of chemical objectives were set and resulted in the successful generation of simple metal-folate and metal-folate-phen complexes (metal = Cu2+, Mn2+, Fe3+ and Zn2+). In contrast to reports in the literature, NMR and IR evidence indicates that the folate ligand coordinates the metal centre via a tridentate ONO {α-COO-, γ-COO-, and Namide} binding mode. A challenging six-stage synthetic route yielded the novel folate-ethylenediamine-imidazole-phen (FIMP-et) ligand and the novel complexes [Cu(FIMP-et)2(H2O)2].(ClO4)2.4.5H2O and [Mn(FIMP-et)3].(ClO4)2.9H2O were subsequently isolated in high yield and purity. The complexes generated were then utilised in a series of biological studies using cellular models expressing the folate receptor. Our results suggest that the effects mediated by these complexes are not dependent on folate receptor expression. Western blot analysis and live cell analysis identified that [Cu(fol)(phen)(H2O)].3H2O, with or without the inclusion of folic acid, induced expression of proteins associated with proteasomal inhibition and apoptosis. In contrast, [Mn(fol)(phen)(H2O)].4H2O was ineffective in inducing proteasomal inhibition. Interestingly [Mn(fol)(phen)(H2O)].4H2O induces cell death through a mechanism independent of proteasomal inhibition, which may involve ROS-induced autophagy. This work advances the field of medicinal inorganic chemistry and has identified novel mechanisms of action for metal folate targeted inorganic complexes as potential chemotherapeutic agents, through proteasomal inhibition and ROS-induced autophagy.
title: Synthesis and Novel Applications of Cerium Dioxide

description: Cerium dioxide nanoparticles (NPs) were synthesised using a novel precipitation procedure and their function explored in a range of applications. The impact of different factors on CeO2 NPs synthesis including temperature and reactant concentration were evaluated experimentally and optimised. The resulting nanoparticles (with an average size of 35 nm) was then characterised by a range of physical and spectroscopic techniques including dynamic light scattering, scanning electron microscopy in conjunction with energy dispersive spectrometry, X-ray diffractometry,Brunauer–Emmett–Teller isotherm measurement, Raman spectroscopy, UV-visible spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. A new nanoparticle synthetic route, the “frozen NH4(OH) cubes method”, was developed, resulting in a higher yield of NPs and shows much promise.
title: Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS): a Potential Quality Tool for Infant Formula Manufacture
Creators: name: Cama Moncunill, Xavier

description: Breast milk is considered the ideal food for infants. However, breastfeeding is at times supplemented or replaced with suitable alternatives. Infant formula (IF) is an industrially produced food intended as a breast milk substitute, which needs to satisfy, by itself, all nutritional requirements of infants. For this reason, it is of critical importance that IF provides the adequate amounts of nutrients including carbohydrates, fats, proteins, minerals and vitamins. Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a promising emission spectroscopic technique for elemental analysis, which can provide real-time measurements with little to no sample preparation. Hence, the main goal of this thesis was to investigate the feasibility of LIBS as a quality tool for mineral analysis in infant formula manufacture. Experiments conducted in this work encompassed the determination of calcium and sodium contents in powdered IF samples, pelletising samples as the only sample preparation procedure; and ready-to-feed IF formula samples, by direct analysis of liquids without sample preparation.

description: We present time-resolved spectroscopy and photometry of CSS 120422:111127+571239 (= SBS1108+574), a recently discovered SU UMa-type dwarf nova whose 55-minute orbital period is well below the CV period minimum of ~78 minutes. In contrast with most other known CVs, its spectrum features He I emission of comparable strength to the Balmer lines, implying a hydrogen abundance less than 0.1 of long period CVs---but still at least 10 times higher than than in AM CVn stars. Together, the short orbital period and remarkable helium-to-hydrogen ratio suggest that mass transfer in "CSS 1204" began near the end of the donor star's main-sequence lifetime, meaning that the system is probably an AM CVn progenitor as described by Podsiadlowski, Han, and Rappaport (2003). Moreover, a Doppler tomogram of the Halpha line reveals two distinct regions of enhanced emission. While one is the result of the stream-disk impact, the other is probably attributable to spiral disk structure generated when material in the outer disk achieves a 2:1 orbital resonance with respect to the donor.

title: Simulation Modeling and Analysis of Customs-Regulated Container Terminal Operations with Multimodal Transportation
Creators: name: Kotachi, Mariam A.
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries
Year: 2014

description: World trade has been increasing dramatically in the past two decades and, as a result, container exchange has grown significantly. Consequently and to meet this increase, several container terminals are expanding and many new ones are being established. A port with one or more container terminals is considered a complex system in which many entities interact to accomplish seamless handling of containers inbound and outbound. The level of complexity is drastically heightened for container terminals containing multimodal transportation systems as they typically involve ships, rail, and trucks arriving to one or more terminals delivering containers of different sizes to several types resources including quay cranes, rubber tyred gantry cranes, straddle carriers, and more. Simulation can be a useful tool to assist in predicting the behavior of the system and its performance under unforeseen circumstances as well as to study possible modifications to the components of the port system. In this thesis, a generic discrete-event simulation model is constructed to simulate port operations with different associated resources and stations including loading/unloading, customs station, container yard and more. The analysis will entail studying various scenarios motivated by changes in different parameters to measure their influence on relevant outcomes including throughput, resource utilization and waiting times.
