description: Small islands are among the most fragile and vulnerable yet diverse and unique ecosystems on Earth. This complexity is enhanced by human communities relying on its resources. Understanding small islands therefore, includes analyses of its innate character and the spatial interaction. These ideas form the two-pronged theme of this research including (1) comprehensive profile gap analysis of the small island and (2) its spatial interaction analysis through the natural resources, which provided bases for recommending island spatial strategies. Represented by the small island provinces of Batanes, Siquijor and Camiguin in the Philippines, the following results were highlighted: a) unique characters of the small island provinces from the socio-demographic and cultural (High Population density and low growth rate, Isola Effect, Sea-faring culture, migration patterns); environmental (coastline to physical size ratio, vulnerability to hydro-meteorological hazards and disasters, complex geographies and ecosystems, ecosystem continuum); economic (narrow and concentrated economic base, vulnerability to environmental shocks, import orientation, prominence of varied informal economy, subsistence and extractive economy); Infrastructure (Physical isolation and accessibility concerns, centralization for provision of support services); and institutions (satellite town effect, unclear hierarchical spatial roles) and b) the spatial interaction analyses confirming these characteristics and provide deeper context on the actual conditions of small island provinces not seen on the usual island analysis conducted for planning small islands (weak spatial interaction scores, direct association of natural island ecosystems to the livelihoods and the inequitable distribution of these resources through material flows skewed towards the regional environment). Insightful island policy strategies transcending from the protection, production settlements and infrastructure policy areas were done including: (a) creation of Small Island Province Ecosystem Continuum (SIPEC) addressing island vulnerability; (b) spatio-temporal measures for the production perspectives; (c) mainstreaming of the island communities concern including the indigenous rights and island living context to alleviate impoverish conditions; d) and green or nature-based solutions as supporting mechanisms for island development, to mention a few. All these options translate to spatial strategies for small island provinces in the Philippines.

description: Quadrupole moments of the six known superdeformed ~SD! bands of 193Hg and the yrast SD band of 192Hg
have been determined by a Doppler-shift-attenuation-method measurement utilizing the gammasphere array.
The quadrupole moments of all 193Hg SD bands were found to be similar, suggesting the active single-particle
orbitals in the mass-190 region exhibit only small shape-driving effects. Additionally, there is evidence for an
unexpected difference in the quadrupole moments of SD bands in 192Hg and 193Hg.

description: In der Arbeit werden die Zusammenhänge sprachlicher Kompetenzen und mathematischen Lernens unter Berücksichtigung von Arbeitsgedächtniseinflüssen im Zeitraum zwischen Vorschulalter und Ende des Grundschulalters durch vier aufeinander aufbauende Teilstudien untersucht. Zunächst wird betrachtet inwiefern vorschulische Voraussetzungen in den Bereichen Sprache und/oder Mathematik einen Einfluss auf die Entwicklung beider Kompetenzbereiche erhalten (Teilstudie 1). Zudem ist von Interesse, welchen Erklärungswert das Arbeitsgedächtnis für eventuell bestehende Entwicklungsunterschiede sprachlicher und mathematischer Kompetenzen in Abhängigkeit des vorschulischen Leistungsniveaus einnimmt (Teilstudie 2). Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass vorschulisch gelegte Leistungsunterschiede mathematischer Kompetenzen bis zum Ende des Grundschulalters aufrechterhalten bleiben, während sprachliche Schwächen zu Teilen wieder aufgeholt werden können. Zudem wird ein Erklärungswert des Arbeitsgedächtnisses sowohl für mathematische wie auch sprachliche Leistungsunterschiede ersichtlich. In einem weiteren Schritt ist von Interesse, inwiefern sprachliche Kompetenzen, mathematische Kompetenzen und einzelne Arbeitsgedächtniskomponenten im mathematischen Lernprozess zwischen Vorschulalter und Ende des Grundschulalters interagieren (Teilstudie 3). Darüber hinaus wird die spezielle Funktion der Sprache in der Interaktion fokussiert (Teilstudie 4). Die Ergebnisse weisen auf eine langfristige Beeinflussung sprachlicher Kompetenzen auf mathematische Lernprozesse hin. Die Einflüsse unterschiedlicher Arbeitsgedächtniskomponenten auf das Zusammenspiel sprachlicher und mathematischer Kompetenzen scheinen altersabhängig bestimmt. Zudem lassen die Ergebnisse eine Beeinflussung bereits vorhandener Sprach- und Mathematikkompetenzen auf die Leistungsfähigkeit des Arbeitsgedächtnisses erahnen. Auch ist zu vermuten, dass durch das bestehende Niveau sprachlicher Kompetenzen die Leistungsfähigkeit des Arbeitsgedächtnisses insofern begünstigt wird, dass sich dies unterstützend auf die mathematische Leistungsfähigkeit auswirkt. Die sprachlichen Kompetenzen scheinen zusätzlich als Mediatoren von Arbeitsgedächtniseinflüssen auf mathematische Kompetenzen zu fungieren.

description: An experiment designed to populate two-phonon vibrational states in 208Pb by Coulomb excitation was
performed with a 136Xe beam at a bombarding energy of 650 MeV. The g rays from the decay of the excited
states were measured with Gammasphere and scattered particles were detected in the compact heavy-ion
counter CHICO. We have not been able to observe any state close to the expected harmonic energy of 5.2
MeV. However, we were able to extract the B(E3,31
2!61
1) value for the lowest known 61 state at 4.424 MeV
based on measured g-ray intensities. About 20% of the expected total E3 strength can be found in this state,
suggesting a large fragmentation of this second octupole phonon state in 208Pb. Upper limits for the B(E3)
strength were determined for higher-lying, but unseen, 61 states ranging from 15% of the harmonic value at
5.2 MeV to 100% at 6.0 MeV.

description: Entangled state of light is one of the essential quantum resources in quantum information science and technology. Especially, when the fundamental principle experiments have been achieved in labs and the applications of continuous variable quantum information in the real world are considered, it is crucial to design and construct the generation devices of entangled states with high entanglement and compact configuration. We have designed and built an efficient and compact light source of entangled state, which is a non-degenerate optical parametric amplifier (NOPA) with the triple resonance of the pump and two subharmonic modes. A wedged type-II KTP crystal inside the NOPA is used for implementing frequency-down-conversion of the pump field to generate the optical entangled state and achieving the dispersion compensation between the pump and the subharmonic waves. The EPR entangled state of light with quantum correlations of 8.4 dB for both amplitude and phase quadratures are experimentally produced by a single NOPA under the pump power of 75 mW.

title: Dependence modelling of marine environmental variables and resilience assessment of offshore structures operating in harsh environments
Creators: name: Ramadhani, Adhitya Ryan
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
Year: 2023

description: With increasing global energy demand, energy-related offshore activities continue to increase. As part of this expansion, exploration and operations in harsh ocean environments are becoming more common. Harsh environments are characterized by low temperatures, strong winds, high waves, and ice. These harsher conditions apply increased structural loads and may increase the probability of accidents. Such environmental variables are usually interdependent. Failure to consider these dependencies, when modelling harsh environmental loads, leads to less accurate predictions of design loads and consequently less accurate predictions of offshore structures’ capacity to withstand these loads. This work addresses the dependence issue between environmental variables and seeks to improve predictions of environmental loads and offshore structural capacity. The benefits of considering dependence structures using copula functions are assessed for bivariate and vine-copulas are assessed for multivariate cases of the environmental variables. In each case this is followed by applications to assess offshore structure resilience. Two types of dependence structures are studied: symmetric and asymmetric. Environmental loads are estimated using copula functions to see how significantly the correlation influences the estimation. The copula functions are then applied to assess structural capacity in terms of resilience. A bivariate application case uses copula functions to model two influencing factors that determine the velocity of an iceberg. Results show that the resilience of the offshore structure is mainly dependent on absorptive capacity. Multivariate models are then constructed using Vine Copulas, and a total environmental load is estimated. This multivariate copula model is applied to assess the resilience of an offshore structure subjected to multiple environmental loads. The study concludes that the accuracy of environmental load predictions can be improved using copula functions to model environmental factor dependencies. In addition, the concept of structural resilience provides a better means of considering the overall resistance of a structure subject to harsh and dependent multivariate environmental loads. Applications of the proposed methodologies in this thesis help to develop a robust approach to deal with uncertainties related to dependence structures between marine environmental variables. In addition, this thesis helps to develop safer offshore structures operating in harsh environment by estimating the structure’s capacity in term of resilience in the design stage.

description: Climate change, increasing consumption of resources and dependence on fossil fuels pose significant risks to communities, nations and the world as a whole. Sustainable development has long been recognised as a strategy to counteract these negative impacts. Previous studies have stressed the need to involve voluntary communities at local level, in implementation of successful sustainable development programmes, in order to achieve national and EU targets for reduction of Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions. Within the context of EU countries, Ireland has one of the poorest records for GHG reduction and increased renewable energy strategies, therefore urgent improvement is necessary to meet environmental policy targets.This project focused on the promotion of sustainable communities at an Irish local level. Through review of literature and building on previous work carried out in the Centre of Environmental Research in UL, several key barriers to progression of sustainable communities were identified. These included a deficiency in the provision of technical, legal and financial content at the local level, thereby preventing communities from sourcing information on setting up legal organisations and obtaining funding. The objective of this project was to bridge the pre-determined knowledge gap by disseminating the identified information at the local level in an accessible and user-friendly manner. Critical review of existing web aids and comparative analysis on development platforms provided a strong case for the construction of an accessible web based Decision Support Aid (DSA). For the purpose of this project, a web based DSA is described as an information tool in the form of a website, which guides users through decision stages, providing them with information, so that they can make an informed decision at the end of the process. The web based DSA was developed using a tailored Web Development Life Cycle methodology and employment of WordPress.com and WordPress.org. The prototype was evaluated and modified based on feedback to deliver the finalised version. Evaluation suggested that the web based DSA possessed the potential to act as an enabler towards local level sustainable action in Ireland.

description: We report the discovery of star formation activity in perhaps the most distant molecular cloud in the extreme outer galaxy. We performed deep near infrared imaging with the Subaru 8.2 m telescope, and found two young embedded clusters at two CO peaks of Digel Cloud 1 at the kinematic distance of D = 16 kpc (Galactocentric radius RG = 22 kpc). We identified 18 and 45 cluster members in the two peaks, and the estimated stellar density are ~ 5 and ~ 3 pc^-2, respectively. The observed K-band luminosity function suggests that the age of the clusters is less than 1 Myr and also the distance to the clusters is consistent with the kinematic distance. On the sky, Cloud 1 is located very close to the H I peak of high-velocity cloud (HVC) Complex H, and there are some H I intermediate velocity structures between the Complex H and the Galactic disk, which could indicate an interaction between them. We suggest possibility that Complex H impacting on the Galactic disk has triggered star formation in Cloud 1 as well as the formation of Cloud 1 molecular cloud.

Publisher: name: University of Limerick

description: Background: The purpose of this systematic review was to analyze the available literature on fixation of distal radius fractures (DRFs) under wide-awake local anesthesia no-tourniquet (WALANT), and to examine postoperative pain scores and functional outcomes, operative data including operative time and blood loss, and the frequency of adverse events. Methods: Embase, MEDLINE, Web of Science, and SCOPUS were searched from inception until May 2022 for relevant studies. Studies were screened in duplicate, and data on pain scores, functional outcomes, and adverse events were recorded. Due to methodological and statistical heterogeneity, the results are presented in a descriptive fashion. Results: Ten studies were included comprising 456 patients with closed, unilateral DRFs, of whom 226 underwent fixation under WALANT. These patients had a mean age of 52.8 ± 8.3 years, were 48% female, and had a mean follow-up time of 11.6 months (range: 6-24). Operative time for WALANT patients averaged 60.4 ± 6.5 minutes, with mean postoperative pain scores of 1.4 ± 0.6 on a 10-point scale. Studies that compared WALANT to general anesthesia found shorter hospital stays with most WALANT patients being sent home the same day, decreased postoperative pain scores, and decreased costs to the healthcare system. No adverse events were reported for WALANT patients. Conclusions: A growing body of literature reports that for closed, unilateral DRF, surgical fixation under WALANT is a safe and effective option. It allows patients to have surgery sooner, with improved pain scores and good functional outcomes, with a very low incidence of adverse events.

description: The reactions 152Sm(7Li,4n) at 45 MeV and 124Sn(36S,p4n) at 165 MeV were used to study high-spin states of the N590 nucleus 155Tb. Previously known bands have been greatly extended in spin (I'45\) and a new decoupled sequence was identified. Several band crossings or quasiparticle alignments have been observed in each of the structures, and as a result a configuration assignment has been given to the new band. B(M1)/B(E2) transition strength ratios have been extracted from the data and comparisons were made with theoretical predictions. A comprehensive analysis of the signature splitting in the energy levels and B(M1)/B(E2) ratios for the ph11/2 bands of the A'160 region has been performed. Possible interpretations for the observed trends in the signature splitting of these structures are discussed.

description: We report on ultrastrong coupling between a superconducting flux qubit and a resonant mode of a system comprised of two superconducting coplanar stripline resonators coupled galvanically to the qubit. With a coupling strength as high as 17% of the mode frequency, exceeding that of previous circuit quantum electrodynamics experiments, we observe a pronounced Bloch-Siegert shift. The spectroscopic response of our multimode system reveals a clear breakdown of the Jaynes-Cummings model. In contrast to earlier experiments, the high coupling strength is achieved without making use of an additional inductance provided by a Josephson junction.

description: High-spin states in 97,98Rh (Z545) were populated via the 65Cu( 36S,xn)97,98Rh (x54,3) fusion-evaporation reactions. More than 40 additional transitions have been identified and placed in the decay schemes of these nuclei. The level scheme of 97Rh has been extended up to tentative spins of Jp 539/21,37/22, and the placement of some of the previously known transitions has been revised. The level structure of 97Rh indicates a single-particle nature and the observed levels are reproduced well by spherical shell-model calculations. The level scheme of 98Rh has been extended up to spins J;20\ and up to an excitation energy of ;10 MeV. The low-spin structure of 98Rh (J<10\), appears to indicate also a singleparticle structure, as supported by the stretched coupling scheme @ 97Rh(J8)^n (d5/2)598Rh (J)#.

description: We study transport properties of a charge qubit coupling two chiral Luttinger liquids, realized by two antidots placed between the edges of an integer $ν=1$ or fractional $ν=1/3$ quantum Hall bar. We show that in the limit of a large capacitive coupling between the antidots, their quasiparticle occupancy behaves as a pseudo-spin corresponding to an orbital Kondo impurity coupled to a chiral Luttinger liquid, while the inter antidot tunnelling acts as an impurity magnetic field. The latter tends to destabilize the Kondo fixed point for the $ν=1/3$ fractional Hall state, producing an effective inter-edge tunnelling. We relate the inter-edge conductance to the susceptibility of the Kondo impurity and calculate it analytically in various limits for both $ν=1$ and $ν=1/3$.

description: In order to perceive that a physical system evolves in time, two requirements must be met: (a) it must be possible to define a "clock" and (b) it must be possible to make a copy of the state of the system, that can be reliably retrieved to make a comparison. We investigate what constraints quantum mechanics poses on these issues, in light of recent experiments with entangled photons.

description: At present, the demand for agricultural statistics, which the Department’s program endeavors to meet with the resources available, covers a broad field. In addition to statistics concerning production, prices, marketings, farm employment, and wage rate, the Bureau of Agricultural Economics maintains such regular recurring statistical series or estimates as: Indexes of farm production; farmers' cash receipts and expenditures; parity prices and parity income; gross and net farm income; estimates of per capita food consumption for individual commodities; changes in land values and volume of sales of farm real estate; farm taxes and tax returns, specific types of farming; estimates of farm population; migration to and from the farm; and similar series which are prepared by bringing together and studying large masses of data collected by the Bureau and other agencies (See Appendix A – “Who Uses Agricultural Statistics”). To meet the needs, the Bureau of Agricultural Economics publishes numerous basic statistical series throughout the year. Included are series of current estimates of production, stocks, and prices of over 150 farm products, and also farm wages and employment. (See Appendix B – “Agricultural Statistical Series Published by the Bureau of Agricultural Economics”.)

description: In-beam g rays have been observed in the neutron-deficient isotopes 170,171,172Pt using the recoil-decay
tagging technique. The yrast transition sequence proposed for 172Pt indicates that the 01 bandhead of
the deformed intruder band is situated about 900 keV above the weakly deformed ground state, i.e.,
its excitation energy has risen by about 300 keV compared to 174Pt. The measured energy of the 21
!01 transition in 170Pt supports an even larger increase in the excitation energy of the intruder configuration
with the departure from the middle of the 82–126 major neutron shell. Furthermore, a band with transition
energies almost identical to those found in 172Pt has been assigned to 171Pt and was interpreted as corresponding
to a rotationally aligned i13/2 neutron orbital coupled to the core excitations.

description: Though coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are magnetized fully-ionized gases, a recent observational study of a CME collision event in 2008 November has suggested that their behavior in the heliosphere is like elastic balls, and their collision is probably super-elastic \citep{Shen_etal_2012}. If this is true, this finding has an obvious impact on the space weather forecasting because the direction and veliocity of CMEs may change. To verify it, we numerically study the event through three-dimensional MHD simulations. The nature of CMEs' collision is examined by comparing two cases. In one case the two CMEs collide as observed, but in the other, they do not. Results show that the collision leads to extra kinetic energy gain by 3%--4% of the initial kinetic energy of the two CMEs. It firmly proves that the collision of CMEs could be super-elastic.

description: The ball pen probe (BPP) technique is used successfully to make profile measurements of plasma potential, electron temperature and radial electric field on the Mega Amp Spherical Tokamak (MAST). The potential profile measured by the BPP is shown to significantly differ from the floating potential both in polarity and profile shape. By combining the BPP potential and the floating potential the electron temperature can be measured, which is compared with the Thomson scattering (TS) diagnostic. Excellent agreement between the two diagnostics is obtained when secondary electron emission is accounted for in the floating potential. From the BPP profile an estimate of the radial electric field is extracted which is shown to be of the order ~1kV/m and increases with plasma current. Corrections to the BPP measurement, constrained by the TS comparison, introduce uncertainty into the ER measurements. The uncertainty is most significant in the electric field well inside the separatrix. The electric field is used to estimate toroidal and poloidal rotation velocities from ExB motion. This paper further demonstrates the ability of the ball pen probe to make valuable and important measurements in the boundary plasma of a tokamak.

Is hypnotherapy helpful for irritable bowel syndrome in primary and secondary care?
Creators: name: Palsson, O.S.
Publisher: name: Elsevier Ltd
Year: 2019

description: Gut-directed hypnotherapy has been investigated extensively over the past three decades as an intervention for irritable bowel syndrome (IBS) in adults. Almost 30 studies of clinical outcomes, including ten randomised controlled trials, have been published on the topic, with most showing that hypnotherapy significantly improved bowel symptoms and, often, the associated quality of life and emotional symptoms. On the basis of this body of research, multiple recent reviews have concluded that hypnotherapy is an effective treatment for IBS.

description: Super-elastic collision is an abnormal collisional process, in which some particular mechanisms cause the kinetic energy of the system increasing. Most studies in this aspect focus on solid-like objects, but they rarely consider gases or liquids, as the collision of the latter is primarily a mixing process. With cross-field diffusion being effectively prohibited, magnetized plasmoids are different from ordinary gases. But it remains unclear how they act during a collision. Here we present the global picture of a unique collision between two coronal mass ejections in the heliosphere, which are the largest magnetized plasmoids erupting from the Sun. Our analysis for the first time reveals that these two magnetized plasmoids collided like solid-like objects with a 73% likelihood of being super-elastic. Their total kinetic energy surprisingly increased by about 6.6% through the collision, which significantly influenced the dynamics of the plasmoids.

description: g -ray spectroscopy of the high-spin states of the neutron-deficient nucleus 187Pb has been conducted with the 155Gd(36Ar,4n) reaction. A cascade of three transitions was deduced from g -g coincidence data gated by detection of recoiling evaporation residues in a gas-filled recoil separator. In an earlier, separate experiment, two of these g rays were positively identified with 187Pb by recoil-g coincidence measurements with a high-resolution, recoil mass spectrometer. From comparison with similar sequences in heavier odd-A lead isotopes, the cascade in 187Pb is associated with the sequence of three E2 transitions from the yrast 25/2 + level to a low-lying 13/2 + isomer. The variation of excitation energy with mass number of the levels concerned suggests that their structure can be associated with weak coupling of an odd i13/2 neutron to states in the spherical well. However, the possibility that they are influenced by mixing with states in the prolate-deformed well cannot be discounted.

description: Objective: To assess the prevalence of functional gastrointestinal (GI) disorders in children 0-18 years old according to the newly established Rome IV diagnostic criteria as reported by parents in a representative community sample. Study design: A cross-sectional study in which mothers (n = 1255) of children aged 0-18 years old in the US were recruited to complete an online survey about their child's GI symptoms, quality of life (QoL), and other health conditions. Results: Based on the Rome IV criteria, 24.7% of infants and toddlers aged 0-3 years and 25.0% of children and adolescents aged 4-18 years fulfilled symptom-based criteria for a functional GI disorder. The most common functional GI disorders were infant regurgitation among infants (24.1%) and functional constipation among both toddlers (18.5%) and children and adolescents (14.1%). QoL was diminished in pediatric patients with functional GI disorders (median = 71.69 vs median = 87.60; z = −11.41; P <.001). Children were more likely to qualify for a functional GI disorder if their parent qualified for a functional GI disorder (35.4% vs 23.0%; P <.001). Conclusions: Based on Rome IV criteria, functional GI disorders are common in pediatric populations of all ages and are associated with decreased QoL.
