description: Fermi National Accelerator Laboratory is constructing an Advanced Accelerator Research and Development facility at New Muon Lab. The cryogenic infrastructure in support of the initial phase of the facility consists of two Tevatron style standalone refrigerators, cryogenic distribution system as well as an ambient temperature pumping system to achieve 2 K operations with supporting purification systems. During this phase of the project a single Type III plus 1.3 GHz cryomodule was installed, cooled and tested. Design constraints of the cryomodule required that the cryomodule individual circuits be cooled at predetermined rates. These constraints required special design solutions to achieve. This paper describes the initial cooldown and operational experience of a 1.3 GHz cryomodule using the New Muon Lab cryogenic system.

description: The past few years have witnessed a boom of miniapps, as lightweight applications, miniapps are of great importance in the mobile internet sector. Consequently, the security of miniapps can directly impact compromising the integrity of sensitive data, posing a potential threat to user privacy. However, after a thorough review of the various research efforts in miniapp security, we found that their actions in researching the safety of miniapp web interfaces are limited. This paper proposes a triad threat model focusing on users, servers and attackers to mitigate the security risk of miniapps. By following the principle of least privilege and the direction of permission consistency, we design a novel analysis framework for the security risk assessment of miniapps by this model. Then, we analyzed the correlation between the security risk assessment and the threat model associated with the miniapp. This analysis led to identifying potential scopes and categorisations with security risks. In the case study, we identify nine major categories of vulnerability issues, such as SQL injection, logical vulnerabilities and cross-site scripting. We also assessed a total of 50,628 security risk hazards and provided specific examples.

description: A modern and largely used approach to obtain Hawking radiation is the tunnelling mechanism. However, in various papers in the literature, the analysis concerned almost only to obtain the Hawking temperature through a comparison of the probability of emission of an outgoing particle with the Boltzmann factor. In a interesting and well written paper, Banerjee and Majhi improved the approach, by explicitly finding a black body spectrum associated with black holes. On the other hand, this result, which has been obtained by using a reformulation of the tunnelling mechanism, is in contrast which the remarkable result by Parikh and Wilczek, that, indeed, found a probability of emission which is compatible with a non-strictly thermal spectrum. By using our recent introduction of an effective state for a black hole, here we solve such a contradiction, through a slight modification of the analysis by Banerjee and Majhi. The final result will be a non-strictly black body spectrum from the tunnelling mechanism. We also show that, for an effective temperature, we can write the corresponding effective metric by Hawking's periodicity arguments. Potential important implications for the black hole information puzzle are also discussed

description: We explored the coupling of strange quark to the state of mass close to 126 GeV recently observed by the ATLAS and CMS experiments at the LHC. An enhanced coupling relative to the expectations for a SM Higgs has the effect of increasing both the inclusive production cross section and the partial decay width into jets. For very large modifications, the latter dominates and the net rate into non-jet decay modes such as diphotons is suppressed, with the result that one can use observations of the diphoton decay mode to place an upper limit on the strange quark coupling. We find that the current observations of the diphoton decay mode imply that the coupling of the new resonance to strange quark can be at most ~ 50 times the SM expectation at the 95 % C.L., if one assumes at most a O(1) modification of the coupling to gluons.

Evaluation of the Effectiveness of a Newly Implemented, Proactive Approach to Legionellosis Investigations Conducted by the Southern Nevada Health District
Creators: name: Raman, Devin Charlotte
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2014

description: This project is an evaluation of a new, more proactive approach to legionellosis investigations conducted by the Southern Nevada Health District. The new protocol was conceived, written and adopted in April of 2012 with the goal of preventing outbreaks of Legionnaires' disease that can have a significant impact on public health and the resort industry of Las Vegas. The objectives of this project were to determine if the remediation methods were successful at eliminating the target organism from water systems and maintaining a negative status throughout the monitoring period, to conduct a cost/benefit analysis, and to compare this protocol with other proactive health department protocols.
Ninety percent of facilities found to be sources were able to obtain and maintain a negative target organism status throughout the monitoring period, indicating that the remediation methods are effective. There was no significant difference between the remediation methods (hot water flush, chlorine flush or both) in obtaining and maintaining negative results for Legionella. This evaluation also found that average yearly costs for SNHD increased from about $5,611 a year on legionellosis investigations to about $82,675. An estimate of the cost to all facilities investigated since implementation is $1,466,000 with an approximate total cost to SNHD and facilities of $1,590,013. This is a minor investment when compared with the significant healthcare costs of legionellosis illness and outbreaks in the U.S., which total $101-321 million per year. In addition, litigation awards can cost facilities hundreds of millions of dollars. No other health departments were identified that conduct this type of proactive investigation, and often only initiate an environmental investigation after a second case is found with an association to the same facility as a previous case. Often, by then it is too late to prevent outbreaks and additional illnesses associated with that facility. This evaluation shows that the new protocol is potentially a strong public health prevention tool for legionellosis outbreaks, that it is cost effective, and would be an excellent template for other local health agencies to adopt in order to better protect the health of the public.

description: We performed multifrequency multiepoch Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) observations of the blazar CTA 102 during its 2006 radio flare, the strongest ever reported for this source. These observations provide an excellent opportunity to investigate the evolution of the physical properties of blazars, especially during these flaring events. We want to study the kinematic changes in the source during the strong radio outburst in April 2006 and test the assumption of a shock-shock interaction. This assumption is based on the analysis and modeling of the single-dish observations of CTA\,102 (Paper I). In this paper we study the kinematics of CTA 102 at several frequencies using VLBI observations. From the modeled jet features we derived estimates for the evolution of the physical parameters, such as the particle density and the magnetic field. Furthermore, we combined our observations during the 2006 flare with long-term VLBA monitoring of the source at 15 GHz and 43 GHz. We cross-identified seven features throughout our entire multifrequency observations and find evidence of two possible recollimation shocks around 0.1 mas (deprojected 18 pc at a viewing angle of 2.6 degrees) and 6.0 mas (deprojected 1 kpc) from the core. The 43 GHz observations reveal a feature ejected at epoch $t_\mathrm{ej}=2005.9\pm0.2$, which could be connected to the 2006 April radio flare. Furthermore, this feature might be associated with the traveling component involved in the possible shock-shock interaction, which gives rise to the observed double peak structure in the single-dish light curves reported in Paper I.

Chinese Outbound Tourists Food Consumption in the U.S.: An Extension of the Theory of Planned Behavior
Creators: name: Wu, Kaiyang
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2014

description: Although Chinese outbound tourists made enormous economic contribution to the U.S. restaurant industry, they seem to have the tendency to consume Chinese cuisine solely during their international trips. This study applies structural equation modeling (SEM) to evaluate different behavioral beliefs' impact on the intentions of Chinese outbound tourist unfamiliar ethnic food consumption in the U.S. Additionally, this research combines the Theory of Planned Behavior (TPB) and food neophobia, a food-related personality trait to better explain Chinese outbound tourists' food rejection behavior in the U.S.
Results of this study showed safety concern, acceptance of table manners, perceived communication gap and food neophobia, but not food sensory appeal, significantly affect intention through different mediation effects (attitudes of consuming unfamiliar ethnic food and attitudes of service quality). Moreover, subjective norms affect intention as TPB indicates. However, perceived behavioral control did not have an impact on intention. The results of this study recommend ethnic food restaurateurs in the U.S. should ensure food safety, provide better communication and explain the menu items, particularly to Chinese tourists. In addition, restaurant owners need to ascertain that guests are aware of the table manners associated with consuming certain ethnic foods.

description: The adaptive leaky integrate-and-fire (ALIF) model is fundamental within computational neuroscience and has been instrumental in studying our brains $\textit{in silico}$. Due to the sequential nature of simulating these neural models, a commonly faced issue is the speed-accuracy trade-off: either accurately simulate a neuron using a small discretisation time-step (DT), which is slow, or more quickly simulate a neuron using a larger DT and incur a loss in simulation accuracy. Here we provide a solution to this dilemma, by algorithmically reinterpreting the ALIF model, reducing the sequential simulation complexity and permitting a more efficient parallelisation on GPUs. We computationally validate our implementation to obtain over a $50\times$ training speedup using small DTs on synthetic benchmarks. We also obtained a comparable performance to the standard ALIF implementation on different supervised classification tasks - yet in a fraction of the training time. Lastly, we showcase how our model makes it possible to quickly and accurately fit real electrophysiological recordings of cortical neurons, where very fine sub-millisecond DTs are crucial for capturing exact spike timing.

description: Although it has a history that goes back about three decades, Metaverse has grown to be one of the most talked-about subjects today. Metaverse gradually increased its influence in the realm of business discourse after initially being restricted to discussions about entertainment. Before getting deep into the Metaverse, it should be noted that failure and deviating from the business path are highly likely for an enterprise that relies heavily on information technology (IT) because of improper use and thinking about IT. The idea of enterprise architecture (EA) emerged as a management strategy to address this issue. As the first school of thought of EA, it sought to transform IT from an unnecessary burden in an enterprise to a guiding and supporting force. Then an extended EA model is suggested as a result of the attempt made in this paper to use the idea of EA to steer virtual enterprises on Metaverse-based platforms. Finally, to evaluate the conceptual model and demonstrate that the Metaverse can support businesses, three case studies Decentraland, Battle Infinity, and Rooom were utilized.

description: The current paper presents a robust watermarking method for still images, which uses the similarity of discrete wavelet transform and human visual system (HVS). The proposed scheme makes the use of pixel wise masking in order to make binary watermark imperceptible to the HVS. The watermark is embedded in the perceptually significant, spatially selected detail coefficients using sub band adaptive threshold scheme. The threshold is computed based on the statistical analysis of the wavelet coefficients. The watermark is embedded several times to achieve better robustness. Here, a new type of non-oblivious detection method is proposed. The improvement in robustness performance against different types of deliberate and non-intentional image impairments (lossy compression, scaling, cropping, filtering etc) is supported through experimental results. The reported result also shows improvement in visual and statistical invisibility of the hidden data. The proposed method is compared with a state of the art frequency based watermarking technique, highlighting its performance. This algorithmic architecture utilizes the existing allocated bandwidth in the data transmission channel in a more efficient manner.

description: Particles ejected from the Sun that stream through the surrounding plasma of the solar wind are causing instabilities. These generate wavemodes in a certain frequency range especially within shock regions, where particles are accelerated. The aim of this paper is to investigate of amplified Alfvenic wavemodes in driven incompressible magnetohydrodynamic turbulence. Results of different heliospheric scenarios from isotropic and anisotropic plasmas, as well as turbulence near the critical balance are shown. The energy transport of the amplified wavemode is governed by the mechanisms of diffusion, convection and dissipation of energy in wavenumber space. The strength of these effects varies with energy and wavenumber of the mode in question. Two-dimensional energy spectra of spherical k-space integration that permit detailed insight into the parallel and perpendicular development are presented. The evolution of energy injected through driving shows a strong energy transfer to perpendicular wavemodes. The main process at parallel wavemodes is the dissipation of energy in wavenumber space. The generation of higher harmonics along the parallel wavenumber axis is observed. We find evidence for a critical balance in our simulations.

title: Scandinavian Origins through Christian Eyes: A Comparative Study of the History of the Normans and the Russian Primary Chronicle
Creators: name: Miller, Aron
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2016

description:
The present study examines two historical texts; the History of the Normans by Dudo of St-Quentin and the Russian Primary Chronicle by the anonymous authors. Both sources have only recently been examined by historians, but have never been compared. These two sources created a historical narrative for the new Norman culture and Russian culture. Before these texts both of these cultures had been forming, but they had not been dedicated to pen and paper. The authors of these texts needed to justify the rule of the patron dynasties because they both originated from Scandinavian in the late ninth century and early tenth century. In addition to being foreign, the patriarchs of each dynasty were Norse pagan. The authors worked around these two problems by tying members of the dynasties to important Christian figures and using Christian redirect. Throughout this study I demonstrate that in addition to a shared Christian redirect, both authors used a shared Pan-Scandinavian oral tradition by comparing them to the Icelandic Sagas.

We introduce a new analytic model for tidal disruption events (TDEs) to analyze the dependence of these events on beta, the ratio of the tidal radius to the orbital pericenter. We find, contrary to most previous work, that the spread in debris energy for a TDE is largely constant for all beta. This result has important consequences for optical transient searches targeting TDEs, which we discuss. We quantify leading-order general relativistic corrections to this spread in energy and find that they are small. We also examine the role of stellar spin, and find that a combination of spin-orbit misalignment, rapid rotation, and high beta may increase the spread in debris energy. Finally, we quantify for the first time the gravitational wave emission due to the strong compression of a star in a high-beta TDE. Although this signal is unlikely to be detectable for disruptions of main sequence stars, the tidal disruption of a white dwarf by an intermediate mass black hole can produce a strong signal visible to Advanced LIGO at tens of megaparsecs.

description: We study cosmological models involving scalar fields coupled to radiation and discuss their effect on the redshift evolution of the cosmic microwave background temperature, focusing on links with varying fundamental constants and dynamical dark energy. We quantify how allowing for the coupling of scalar fields to photons, and its important effect on luminosity distances, weakens current and future constraints on cosmological parameters. In particular, for evolving dark energy models, joint constraints on the dark energy equation of state combining BAO radial distance and SN luminosity distance determinations, will be strongly dominated by BAO. Thus, to fully exploit future SN data one must also independently constrain photon number non-conservation arising from the possible coupling of SN photons to the dark energy scalar field. We discuss how observational determinations of the background temperature at different redshifts can, in combination with distance measures data, set tight constraints on interactions between scalar fields and photons, thus breaking this degeneracy. We also discuss prospects for future improvements, particularly in the context of Euclid and the E-ELT and show that Euclid can, even on its own, provide useful dark energy constraints while allowing for photon number non-conservation.

description:
Tourism, one of the world's largest and fastest growing industries, estimated to be the largest by the year 2000, is promoted as the key to economic growth and prosperity for ailing economies. The industry, a $3.6 trillion industry, is also the largest employer in almost every country, accounting for one out of every 9 jobs worldwide.Tourist travel offers opportunities for relaxation, adventure, and encounters with unfamiliar lands and people; experiences that can help to bridge cultural gaps and build global communities. There is an increasing global awareness about the importance of tourism development, its benefits, and its possible effects. What are the implications of travel? Which of them are beneficial and which are not? The positive versus the negative impacts of tourism set the stage for continuous debate.

Massive spin-flip excitations in a $ν= 2$ quantum Hall ferromagnet

description: Excitation with a massive spin reversal of the individual skyrmion/antiskyrmion type is theoretically studied in a quantum Hall ferromagnet, where the zero and first Landau levels are completely occupied only by electrons with spins aligned strictly in the direction determined by the magnetic field. The Wigner-Seitz parameter is not necessarily considered to be small. The microscopic model in use is based on a reduced basic set of quantum states [the so-called ''single-mode (single-exciton) approximation''], which allows proper account to be taken for mixing of Landau levels, and substantiating the equations of the classical $O(3)$ nonlinear $σ$ model. The calculated ''spin stiffness'' determines the exchange gap for creating a pair of skyrmion and antiskyrmion. This gap is significantly smaller than the doubled cyclotron energy and the characteristic electron-electron correlation energy. Besides, the skyrmion--antiskyrmion creation gap is much smaller than the energy of creation of a separated electron--exchange-hole pair calculated in the limit case of a spin magnetoexciton corresponding to an infinitely large 2D momentum. At a certain magnetic field (related to the 2D electron density in the case of fixed filling factor $ν$), the gap vanishes, which presumably points to a Stoner transition of the quantum Hall ferromagnet to a paramagnetic phase.

description: We propose a method to simulate the real time evolution of one dimensional quantum many-body systems at finite temperature by expressing both the density matrices and the observables as matrix product states. This allows the calculation of expectation values and correlation functions as scalar products in operator space. The simulations of density matrices in inverse temperature and the local operators in the Heisenberg picture are independent and result in a grid of expectation values for all intermediate temperatures and times. Simulations can be performed using real arithmetics with only polynomial growth of computational resources in inverse temperature and time for integrable systems. The method is illustrated for the XXZ model and the single impurity Anderson model.

description: Environmental Nonprofits emerged over the years to attend to the environmental needs of communities and individuals, as well as address environmental issues that concern the public. These issues are usually those that have been neglected, given insufficient attention, or cannot be singularly handled by the government. In advocating for coastal resilience, environmental nonprofits have been identified in the literature as actors with critical roles in addressing coastal issues such as sea-level rise, flooding and shoreline management. In recent times, shoreline management has emerged as one of the foremost areas of focus expedient for the achievement of coastal resilience, and the role of environmental nonprofits in ensuring the management of shorelines is of crucial importance. This study seeks to examine the roles environment nonprofits play in shoreline management for coastal resilience in Virginia. Utilizing qualitative research methods, data from some environmental nonprofits in Virginia’s coastal communities will be collected and analyzed, with the aim of interpreting the roles they play in the management and stabilization of shorelines and elaborating on the impact and implications for environmental sustainability and coastal resilience.
