description: We apply the Lagrangian approach to study surface transport and mixing in the ocean. New tools have been developed to track the motion of water masses, their origin and fate and to quantify transport and mixing. To illustrate the methods used we compute the Lagrangian synoptic maps a comparatively small marine bay, the Peter the Great Bay in the Japan Sea near Vladivostok city (Russia), and in a comparatively large region in the North Pacific, the Kuroshio Extension system. In the first case we use velocity data from a Japan Sea circulation numerical model and in the second one the velocity data are derived from satellite altimeter measurements of anomalies of the sea height distributed by AVISO.

description: The order Diptera (true flies) are named for their two wings because their hindwings have evolved into specialized mechanosensory organs called halteres. Flies use halteres to detect body rotations and maintain stability during flight and other behaviours. The most recently diverged dipteran monophyletic subsection, the Calyptratae, is highly successful, accounting for approximately 12% of dipteran diversity and includes common families like house flies. These flies move their halteres independently from their wings and oscillate their halteres during walking. Here, we demonstrate that this subsection of flies uses their halteres to stabilize their bodies during takeoff, whereas non-Calyptratae flies do not. We find that flies of the Calyptratae are able to take off more rapidly than non-Calyptratae flies without sacrificing stability. Haltere removal decreased both velocity and stability in the takeoffs of Calyptratae, but not other flies. The loss of takeoff velocity following haltere removal in Calyptratae (but not other flies) is a direct result of a decrease in leg extension speed. A closely related non-Calyptratae species (D. melanogaster) also has a rapid takeoff, but takeoff duration and stability are unaffected by haltere removal. Haltere use thus allows for greater speed and stability during fast escapes, but only in the Calyptratae clade.

description: We investigate the effect of matter density fluctuations on supernova collective neutrino flavor oscillations. In particular, we use full multi-angle, 3-flavor, self-consistent simulations of the evolution of the neutrino flavor field in the envelope of an O-Ne-Mg core collapse supernova at shock break-out (neutrino neutronization burst) to study the effect of the matter density "bump" left by the He-burning shell. We find a seemingly counterintuitive increase in the overall electron neutrino survival probability created by this matter density feature. We discuss this behavior in terms of the interplay between the matter density profile and neutrino collective effects. While our results give new insights into this interplay, they also suggest an immediate consequence for supernova neutrino burst detection: it will be difficult to use a burst signal to extract information on fossil burning shells or other fluctuations of this scale in the matter density profile. Consistent with previous studies, our results also show that the interplay of neutrino self-coupling and matter fluctuation could cause a significant increase in the electron neutrino survival probability at very low energy

description: This document describes the results of two workshops sponsored by NMFS Southeast Fisheries Science Center, NMFS Office of Science and Technology and the Gulf States Marine Fisheries Commission. These workshops, held in response to the Deepwater Horizon Incident, were intended to evaluate the status of fishery-independent surveys in the Gulf of Mexico. A small planning workshop was held in Miami on the 25 to 27 of August, 2010. The second workshop, held on the 23 and 24 of September 2010 in St. Petersburg, Florida, was a larger gathering of academics, state representatives, non-governmental organizations, U.S. and Mexican federal scientists, and private industry representatives. These workshops were not intended to develop a consensus view, but were instead based on the model of a ‘think tank’ to collect ideas for further consideration.

Thermopower of Quantum Hall States in Corbino Geometry as a Measure of Quasiparticle Entropy

description: Using the Onsager relation between electric and heat transport coefficients, and considering the very different roles played by the quantum Hall condensate and quasiparticles in transport, we argue that near the center of a quantum Hall plateau thermopower in a Corbino geometry measures {\it "entropy per quasiparticle per quasiparticle charge"}. This relation indicates that thermopower measurement in a Corbino setup is a more direct measure of quasiparticle entropy than in a Hall bar. Treating disorder within the self-consistent Born approximation, we show through an explicit microscopic calculation that this relation holds on an integer quantum Hall plateau at low temperatures. Applying this to non-Abelian quantum Hall states, we argue that Corbino thermopower at sufficiently low temperature becomes temperature-independent, and measures the quantum dimension of non-Abelian quasiparticles that determines the topological entropy they carry.
Development of an innovative web-based teaching tool illustrating land use impacts to soil quality and formation
Creators: name: Strivelli, Rachel A.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Over the last few decades, post-secondary education has experienced an increase in the adoption of new technologies and approaches into the curriculum. Meanwhile, soil has not received the attention it warrants for its role in many of the current global environmental issues, such as food shortages and climate change. Innovative teaching approaches are needed to convey the message that soil is an essential natural resource for human survival and to raise the appeal of the discipline of soil science. The objective of this study was to develop and evaluate the web-based Land Use Impacts (LUI) teaching tool, which combined a problem-based learning (PBL) style case study with information technology (IT) to illustrate the impacts of three land uses on soil formation and quality for students enrolled in the fourth year/graduate university course on sustainable soil management. The LUI tool (http://soilweb.landfood.ubc.ca/luitool/) provides an authentic learning experience with the purpose of engaging students and providing greater access to information. The tool will be used extensively in the Sustainable Soil Management course offered at UBC which has a yearly enrollment of around 30 students. The tool includes instructional technologies, soils data from 1970 and 2005-2008, archival photos, maps, historical narratives, and web-links. Preliminary feedback showed that the tool successfully conveyed learning objectives and was appealing to the students. Eighty-five percent of student agreed that the tool's multimedia resources added to the appeal of the subject. By exposing students to complex questions without definite answers, promoting intellectual inquiry and analysis, stimulating critical thinking, and encouraging the application of knowledge to complex issues, the LUI tool stimulates higher cognitive processes and facilitates learning outcomes deemed essential by current employment demands. In long-term, this study will help promote development and use of innovative educational methods in soil science curriculum and, in turn, will enhance the appeal of this discipline among the next generation of natural resource scientists.
Sparse approximation property and stable recovery of sparse signals from noisy measurements
Creators: name: Sun, Qiyu
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Information Theory (cs.IT)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: In this paper, we introduce a sparse approximation property of order $s$ for a measurement matrix ${\bf A}$: $$\|{\bf x}_s\|_2\le D \|{\bf A}{\bf x}\|_2+ β\frac{σ_s({\bf x})}{\sqrt{s}} \quad {\rm for\ all} \ {\bf x},$$ where ${\bf x}_s$ is the best $s$-sparse approximation of the vector ${\bf x}$ in $\ell^2$, $σ_s({\bf x})$ is the $s$-sparse approximation error of the vector ${\bf x}$ in $\ell^1$, and $D$ and $β$ are positive constants. The sparse approximation property for a measurement matrix can be thought of as a weaker version of its restricted isometry property and a stronger version of its null space property. In this paper, we show that the sparse approximation property is an appropriate condition on a measurement matrix to consider stable recovery of any compressible signal from its noisy measurements. In particular, we show that any compressible signalcan be stably recovered from its noisy measurements via solving an $\ell^1$-minimization problem if the measurement matrix has the sparse approximation property with $β\in (0,1)$, and conversely the measurement matrix has the sparse approximation property with $β\in (0,\infty)$ if any compressible signal can be stably recovered from its noisy measurements via solving an $\ell^1$-minimization problem.

description: Tight-binding calculations predict that the AA-stacked graphene bilayer has one electron and one hole conducting bands, and that the Fermi surfaces of these bands coincide. We demonstrate that as a result of this degeneracy, the bilayer becomes unstable with respect to a set of spontaneous symmetry violations. Which of the symmetries is broken depends on the microscopic details of the system. We find that antiferromagnetism is the more stable order parameter. This order is stabilized by the strong on-site Coulomb repulsion. For an on-site repulsion energy typical for graphene systems, the antiferromagnetic gap can exist up to room temperatures.

description: Η μέτρηση της θνησιμότητας είναι σημαντική στη δημογραφία διότι με την μέτρηση αυτής μπορούν να κατασκευαστούν πίνακες επιβίωσης (life tables) οι οποίοι είναι χρήσιμοι στην βιοστατιστική και την επιδημιολογία, αλλά και στον δημόσιο τομέα για τον σχεδιασμό πολιτικών για την κοινωνική ασφάλιση. Ο ιδιωτικός τομέας έχει επίσης ανάγκη γνώσης της δομής και της εξέλιξης του πληθυσμού π.χ. ο ασφαλιστικός κλάδος για τον σχεδιασμό ασφαλιστικών προγραμμάτων και τον καθορισμό ασφαλίστρων και αποζημιώσεων. Ένα μεγάλο πεδίο εφαρμογής των μεθόδων της ανάλυσης θνησιμότητας και κατασκευής πινάκων επιβίωσης, αφορά την βιοστατιστική έρευνα, την επιδημιομετρία και την αναλογιστική επιστήμη. Η μεθοδολογία που χρησιμοποιήθηκε στην παρούσα διπλωματική εργασία είναι, αρχικά η κατασκευή πινάκων επιβίωσης ανδρών και γυναικών για όλες τις αιτίες, με τα στοιχεία θανάτων των ετών 2018, 2019 και 2020 και υπολογισμός του προσδόκιμου ζωής. Εν συνεχεία, αντλώντας στοιχεία θανάτων ανά αιτία για τα ίδια έτη, υπολογίστηκαν οι ειδικές πιθανότητες και όλες οι συναρτήσεις του Πίνακα επιβίωσης από κάθε αιτία θανάτου και, ακολούθως, υπολογίστηκε ξανά το προσδόκιμο ζωής χωρίς την επίδραση κάθε μίας από τις αιτίες αυτές. Από την σύγκριση του προσδόκιμου ζωής με την επίδραση μιας συγκεκριμένης αιτίας θανάτου και χωρίς την επίδραση αυτής, εκτιμήθηκε το «όφελος» στην προσδοκώμενη ζωή από την απαλοιφή μιας αιτίας θανάτου. Τα βασικά συμπεράσματα της διπλωματικής είναι ότι το «όφελος» στην προσδοκώμενη ζωή δεν είναι το ίδιο σε κάθε ηλικία. Ειδικότερα, από την παρούσα ανάλυση μπορούμε να παρατηρήσουμε ότι τόσο στους άντρες όσο και στις γυναίκες παρουσιάζεται μεγαλύτερη διαφορά στην αύξηση της προσδοκώμενης ζωής στην κατηγορία των Νεοπλασμάτων-Λοιπών Νεοπλασμάτων και των νοσημάτων του κυκλοφορικού συστήματος. Συνολικά, διαπιστώνουμε ότι η απαλοιφή των νεοπλασμάτων θα οδηγούσε σε μεγαλύτερη αύξηση της προσδοκώμενης ζωής των ανδρών συγκριτικά με των γυναικών, ενώ η εξάλειψη των παθήσεων του κυκλοφορικού συστήματος θα είχε ως αποτέλεσμα μεγαλύτερη αύξηση της προσδοκώμενης ζωής των γυναικών. Άρα, μπορούμε να συμπεράνουμε ότι οι άνδρες αποβιώνουν περισσότερο λόγω νεοπλασμάτων, ενώ οι γυναίκες λόγο παθήσεων του κυκλοφορικού συστήματος.

description: The dimension of the space of holomorphic solutions at nonsingular points (also called the holonomic rank) of a $A$--hypergeometric system $M_A (β)$ is known to be bounded above by $ 2^{2d}\operatorname{vol}(A)$, where $d$ is the rank of the matrix $A$ and $\vol (A)$ is its normalized volume. This bound was thought to be very vast because it is exponential on $d$. Indeed, all the examples we have found in the literature verify that $\operatorname{rank}(M_A (β))<2 \vol (A)$. We construct here, in a very elementary way, some families of matrices $A_{(d)}\in \ZZ^{d \times n}$ and parameter vectors $β_{(d)} \in \C^d$, $d\geq 2$, such that $\rank (M_{A_{(d)}} (β_{(d)}))\geq a^d \vol(A_{(d)})$ for certain $a>1$.

description: Linear polarization due to scattering processes can be used as a probe of the existence of atmospheric condensates in ultracool dwarfs. Models predict that the observed linear polarization increases with the degree of oblateness, which is inverse to the surface gravity.

We aimed to measure optical linear polarization from a sample of six young brown dwarfs, with spectral types between M6 to L2, and cataloged previously as objects with low gravity using spectroscopy. These targets are believed to have dusty atmospheres as a consequence of their low gravity, therefore linearly polarized light is expected from these objects.

Linear polarimetric data were collected in $I$ and $R$-band using CAFOS at the 2.2 m telescope in Calar Alto Observatory.

We obtained results of linear polarization in the I-band compatible with non polarization for all the objects, and similar results for the polarization degree in the R-band for all objects with the exception of 2M0422. For this object we find a linear polarization degree of 0.81+-0.18%. 2M0422 is 10 deg to the south of the Taurus star-forming region, thus, we suspect that its polarization is caused by the dust in the cloud in which 2M0422 might be embedded.

description: The large-scale circulation of planetary atmospheres like that of the Earth is traditionally thought of in a dynamical framework. Here, we apply the statistical mechanics theory of turbulent flows to a simplified model of the global atmosphere, the quasi-geostrophic model, leading to non-trivial equilibria. Depending on a few global parameters, the structure of the flow may be either a solid-body rotation (zonal flow) or a dipole. A second order phase transition occurs between these two phases, with associated spontaneous symmetry-breaking in the dipole phase. This model allows us to go beyond the general theory of marginal ensemble equivalence through the notion of Goldstone modes.

Microscopic ice friction of polymeric substrates
Creators: name: Stamboulides, Christos
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Interest in snow and ice friction comes from the need to understand and control phenomena of practical importance such as glacier and avalanche movement, traction of automobile tires, snow and ice sports. The need to minimize friction on ice and snow in competitive winter sports is the main motivation behind the present work. A novel tribometer was designed and utilized in conjunction with a conventional rheometer for measuring and understanding the mechanisms of ice friction over polymeric surfaces. Experiments were performed to measure friction between ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene, polytetrafluoroethylene and poly(methyl methacrylate), and ice as a function of sliding velocity, temperature, surface roughness and hydrophobicity. Various techniques were utilized to modify the properties and characteristics of the polymeric surfaces. Light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy as well as surface profilometry were utilized to perform surface analysis and characterize the surface. A goniometer set-up was used for the measurement of the water contact angle measurements and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy for conducting the elemental analysis. Overall it was found that the magnitude of the sliding velocity and temperature play important roles in ice friction. The more hydrophobic polymers exhibit a lower coefficient of friction. Liquid fluorinated additives as well as a plasma enhanced chemical vapour deposition in a fluorinated gas can improve the hydrophobicity of a polymer and decrease its coefficient of friction over ice. These two concepts can directly be applied in snow winter sports and more specifically in ski and snowboard bases production and preparation where greater speeds, shorter times and therefore less friction are in high demand.

description: Non-parametric lensing methods are a useful way of reconstructing the lensing mass of a cluster without making assumptions about the way the mass is distributed in the cluster. These methods are particularly powerful in the case of galaxy clusters with a large number of constraints. The advantage of not assuming implicitly that the luminous matter follows the dark matter is particularly interesting in those cases where the cluster is in a non-relaxed dynamical state. On the other hand, non-parametric methods have several limitations that should be taken into account carefully. We explore some of these limitations and focus on their implications for the possible ring of dark matter around the galaxy cluster CL0024+17. We project three background galaxies through a mock cluster of known radial profile density and obtain a map for the arcs ($θ$ map). We also calculate the shear field associated with the mock cluster across the whole field of view (3.3 arcmin). Combining the positions of the arcs and the two-direction shear, we perform an inversion of the lens equation using two separate methods, the biconjugate gradient, and the quadratic programming (QADP) to reconstruct the convergence map of the mock cluster. We explore the space of the solutions of the convergence map and compare the radial density profiles to the density profile of the mock cluster. When the inversion matrix algorithms are forced to find the exact solution, we encounter systematic effects resembling ring structures, that clearly depart from the original convergence map. Overfitting lensing data with a non-parametric method can produce ring-like structures similar to the alleged one in CL0024.

description: We present a study of the elliptic (v2) and triangular (v3) flow and their corresponding eccentricity fluctuations for asymmetric (Au+Ag, Au+Cu and Au+Si) collisions at \sqrt_NN = 200 GeV. These are compared to the corresponding results from symmetric (Au+Au and Cu+Cu) collisions at the same energy. The study which is carried out using a multi-phase transport (AMPT) model shows that triangularity (ε_3), fluctuations in triangularity and v3 do not show much variation for the different colliding ion sizes studied. However the eccentricity (ε_2), fluctuations in eccentricity and v2 shows a strong dependence on colliding ion size for a given number of participating nucleons. Our study thus indicates that asymmetric heavy-ion collisions could be used to constrain models dealing with flow fluctuations in heavy-ion collisions.

Efficient entanglement criteria beyond Gaussian limits using Gaussian measurements

description: We present a formalism to derive entanglement criteria beyond the Gaussian regime that can be readily tested by only homodyne detection. The measured observable is the Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) correlation. Its arbitrary functional form enables us to detect non-Gaussian entanglement even when an entanglement test based on second-order moments fails. We illustrate the power of our experimentally friendly criteria for a broad class of non-Gaussian states under realistic conditions. We also show rigorously that quantum teleportation for continuous variables employs a specific functional form of EPR correlation.

Localized mode hybridization by fine tuning of 2D random media

description: We study numerically interaction of spatially localized modes in strongly scattering two-dimensional media. We move eigenvalues in the complex plane by changing gradually the index of a single scatterer. When spatial and spectral overlap is sufficient, localized states couple and avoided level crossing is observed. We show that local manipulation of the disordered structure can couple several localized states to form an extended chain of hybridized modes crossing the entire sample, thus changing the nature of certain modes from localized to extended in a nominally localized disordered system. We suggest such a chain is the analog in 2D random systems of the 1D necklace states, the occasional open channels predicted by J.B. Pendry through which the light can sneak through an opaque medium.

Investigating the nature of motion in 3D perturbed elliptic oscillators displaying exact periodic orbits

description: We study the nature of motion in a 3D potential composed of perturbed elliptic oscillators. Our technique is to use the results obtained from the 2D potential in order to find the initial conditions generating regular or chaotic orbits in the 3D potential. Both 2D and 3D potentials display exact periodic orbits together with extended chaotic regions. Numerical experiments suggest, that the degree of chaos increases rapidly, as the energy of the test particle increases. About 97% of the phase plane of the 2D system is covered by chaotic orbits for large energies. The regular or chaotic character of the 2D orbits is checked using the S(c) dynamical spectrum, while for the 3D potential we use the S(c) spectrum, along with the P(f) spectral method. Comparison with other dynamical indicators shows that the S(c) spectrum gives fast and reliable information about the character of motion.

description: The QCD transition is studied on lattices up to $N_t=16$. The chiral condensate is presented as a function of the temperature, and the corresponding transition temperature is extracted. The equation of state is determined on lattices with $N_t=6,8,10$ and at some temperature values with $N_t=12$. The pressure and the trace anomaly are presented as functions of the temperature in the range 100 ...1000 MeV . Using the same configurations we determine the continuum extrapolated phase diagram of QCD on the $μ-T$ plane for small to moderate chemical potentials. Two transition lines are defined with two quantities, the chiral condensate and the strange quark number susceptibility.

description: Coherence vortices are screw-type topological defects in the phase of Glauber's two-point degree of quantum coherence, associated with pairs of spatial points at which an ensemble-averaged stochastic quantum field is uncorrelated. Coherence vortices may be present in systems whose dimensionality is too low to support spatial vortices. We exhibit lattices of such quantum-coherence phase defects for a one-dimensional model quantum system. We discuss the physical meaning of coherence vortices and propose how they may be realized experimentally.
