THE CASE OF PUBLIC HEALTH FACILITIES FOUND IN SOUTH WOLLO ZONE, AMHARA REGION
Creators: name: Tariku Mahammed
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: The purpose of this study was to assess the pharmaceutical inventory management performance at health facilities found in South Wollo zone, Amhara region. The specific objective of the study are to measure how accurate is the stock-keeping records, to determine the significance of the record-keeping errors, to find out how much of the pharmaceutical stock is maintained, to determine the average stock out duration of pharmaceuticals, to identify the pharmaceutical storage conditions in health facilities of South Wollo zone. The study was a cross-sectional survey that involved nine health facilities of south Wollo zone, Amhara region. The research adopted descriptive study design. A stratified random sampling technique was applied to the study. The researcher used a sample size of 30% of the target population to act as the sample size. The researcher used inventory management assessment tool and storage condition observation checklist to collect data for the research. The collected data were quantitatively analyzed using statistical methods to produce frequency tables and graphs for effective interpretation. The key findings from the study revealed that all health facilities visited had stock out of a number of tracer products in the past 100 days. The study found that the average percent of time out of stock was 14%, the average percent of products available on the day of assessment was 76% in the surveyed public health facilitiesfound in South Wollo Zone, The study has found that the average percentage of stock keeping records that were accurate is 62%, health facilities had on average 27% of records greater than physical counts, health facilities had on average 12% of records were lesser than physical counts and the average ratio of inventory variation to total stock is 11%. The study also revealed that majority of the public health facilities (55.6%) practiced unacceptable storage condition. This study demonstrated poor inventory management with respect to the general quality of record keeping, space allocation and general organization of the pharmaceutical storeroom. The researcher recommended that health facilities should design a mechanism for making timely entries and recording issues on logistics tools to keep up to date inventory records and management information system. Frequent monitoring of stock status is suggested, to avoid discrepancies and to keep it to adequate levels. Regular supervision by the district pharmacist is needed to monitor this. Government should strive to introduce use of computer in inventory control in all health facilities and South Wollo zone should take efforts and work with stakeholders to ensure that health facilities have “standard" store for pharmaceutical.

description: Email processing is an emerging area in natural language processing and machine learning. Archivists often must make judgements about the relevance and record status of email messages. This study is an attempt to streamline that process by testing subject line and message body analysis using topic modeling. Specifically, using the Enron Corpus and Latent Dirichlet Allocation, this study investigates the extent to which email subject lines can be used to predict the content of email messages to support efficient archival processing.

description: In recent years, the UK has become divided along two key dimensions: party affiliation and Brexit position. We explored how division along these two dimensions interacts with the correction of political misinformation. Participants saw accurate and inaccurate statements (either balanced or mostly inaccurate) from two politicians from opposing parties but the same Brexit position (Experiment 1), or the same party but opposing Brexit positions (Experiment 2). Replicating previous work, fact-checking statements led participants to update their beliefs, increasing belief after fact affirmations and decreasing belief for corrected misinformation, even for politically aligned material. After receiving fact-checks participants had reduced voting intentions and more negative feelings towards party-aligned politicians (likely due to low baseline support for opposing party politicians). For Brexit alignment, the opposite was found: participants reduced their voting intentions and feelings for opposing (but not aligned) politicians following the fact-checks. These changes occurred regardless of the proportion of inaccurate statements, potentially indicating participants expect politicians to be accurate more than half the time. Finally, although we found division based on both party and Brexit alignment, effects were much stronger for party alignment, highlighting that even though new divisions have emerged in UK politics, the old divides remain dominant.

description: Gamma Ray Bursts are detectable in the gamma-ray band if their jets are oriented towards the observer. However, for each GRB with a typical theta_jet, there should be ~2/theta_jet^2 bursts whose emission cone is oriented elsewhere in space. These off-axis bursts can be eventually detected when, due to the deceleration of their relativistic jets, the beaming angle becomes comparable to the viewing angle. Orphan Afterglows (OA) should outnumber the current population of bursts detected in the gamma-ray band even if they have not been conclusively observed so far at any frequency. We compute the expected flux of the population of orphan afterglows in the mm, optical and X-ray bands through a population synthesis code of GRBs and the standard afterglow emission model. We estimate the detection rate of OA by on-going and forthcoming surveys. The average duration of OA as transients above a given limiting flux is derived and described with analytical expressions: in general OA should appear as daily transients in optical surveys and as monthly/yearly transients in the mm/radio band. We find that ~ 2 OA yr^-1 could already be detected by Gaia and up to 20 OA yr^-1 could be observed by the ZTF survey. A larger number of 50 OA yr^-1 should be detected by LSST in the optical band. For the X-ray band, ~ 26 OA yr^-1 could be detected by the eROSITA. For the large population of OA detectable by LSST, the X-ray and optical follow up of the light curve (for the brightest cases) and/or the extensive follow up of their emission in the mm and radio band could be the key to disentangle their GRB nature from other extragalactic transients of comparable flux density.

description: In 2019, the Triangle Research Libraries Network (TRLN) launched a new shared index and discovery platform called TRLN Discovery that allowed users to seamlessly switch from local holdings to consortium holdings using a search facet. This new catalog was released as localized versions for member institutions. TRLN Discovery followed the development of consortium resource sharing system called TRLN Direct. To evaluate these resource sharing projects, this paper assesses the impact of shared discovery on consortium resource sharing at UNC Chapel Hill. Analysis of interlibrary borrowing and Document Delivery request data does not show an increase in request volume or number of patrons attributable to TRLN Discovery. Both new and returning users, however, are more likely to use consortium searches to place requests with the new catalog. These findings indicate that while users have an interest in using consortium resource discovery platforms, these user experience changes do not directly create demand.

description: Even if a noninteracting system has zero Berry curvature everywhere in the Brillouin zone, it is possible to introduce interactions that stabilise a fractional Chern insulator. These interactions necessarily break time-reversal symmetry (either spontaneously or explicitly) and have the effect of altering the underlying band structure. We outline a number of ways in which this may be achieved, and show how similar interactions may also be used to create a (time-reversal symmetric) fractional topological insulator. While our approach is rigorous in the limit of long range interactions, we show numerically that even for short range interactions a fractional Chern insulator can be stabilised in a band with zero Berry curvature.

Mops bakarii is similar in most respects to M. brachypterus, but is distinguished by its complete lack of basisphenoid pits, which are well to moderately developed in M. brachypterus. Monotypic. Distribution. Known only from Pemba I, Tanzania. Descriptive notes. Head-body 63-72 mm, tail 24-33 mm, ear 15-17 mm, hindfoot 8-11 mm, forearm 34-38 mm; weight 13-185 g. Pelage is chocolate-brown above, with scattered white hairs giving a speckled appearance, and dirty white to dirty yellow below, with hairs on throat being longer than on chest and belly. Wings and uropatagium are black. There are 6-7 wrinkles on each side of upperlip, and anterior wrinkles and skin under midline of nose are covered with short thick jet-black hairs that are spoonshaped. Interaural band connects inner margins of ears, but without interaural pouch or crest. Anterior palate has a well-developed emargination, in contrast to most Mops species, where it is closed. Basisphenoid pits are absent. P* is much smaller than in the Short-winged Free-tailed Bat (M. brachypterus), not reaching cingulum of adjacent C'. As is typical for Mops, cusps on M? are V-shaped rather than N-shaped (i.e. with third “leg” being much reduced). Dental formula for all members of Mopsis 11/2, C 1/1, P2/2,M 3/3 (x2) = 30. Habitat.

description: We discuss a hydrodynamical description of the eigenvalues of the Polyakov line at large but finite $N_c$ for Yang-Mills theory in even and odd space-time dimensions. The hydro-static solutions for the eigenvalue densities are shown to interpolate between a uniform distribution in the confined phase and a localized distribution in the de-confined phase. The resulting critical temperatures are in overall agreement with those measured on the lattice over a broad range of $N_c$, and are consistent with the string model results at $N_c=\infty$. The stochastic relaxation of the eigenvalues of the Polyakov line out of equilibrium is captured by a hydrodynamical instanton. An estimate of the probability of formation of a Z(N$_c)$ bubble using a piece-wise sound wave is suggested.

description: We calculate the production of a massive vector boson by quantum fluctuations during inflation. This gives a novel dark-matter production mechanism quite distinct from misalignment or thermal production. While scalars and tensors are typically produced with a nearly scale-invariant spectrum, surprisingly the vector is produced with a power spectrum peaked at intermediate wavelengths. Thus dangerous, long-wavelength, isocurvature perturbations are suppressed. Further, at long wavelengths the vector inherits the usual adiabatic, nearly scale-invariant perturbations of the inflaton, allowing it to be a good dark matter candidate. The final abundance can be calculated precisely from the mass and the Hubble scale of inflation, H_I. Saturating the dark matter abundance we find a prediction for the mass m = 10^-5 eV (10^14 GeV/H_I)^4. High-scale inflation, potentially observable in the CMB, motivates an exciting mass range for recently proposed direct detection experiments for hidden photon dark matter. Such experiments may be able to reconstruct the distinctive, peaked power spectrum, verifying that the dark matter was produced by quantum fluctuations during inflation and providing a direct measurement of the scale of inflation. Thus a detection would not only be the discovery of dark matter, it would also provide an unexpected probe of inflation itself.

The Delicate Art of Portraying Your Archivist: A Textual Analysis of Mass Media Portrayals of Archives, Archivists, and Archival Materials in the Twenty-First Century.
Creators: name: Long, McKenzie
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2020

description: This study describes a mixed methods textual analysis of forty-five media texts featuring archives, archivists, and archival materials, produced during the first two decades of the twenty-first century. The media texts examined include fifteen examples of each of the following mass media types: books, traditional audiovisual media, and media formats popularized or emergent since 2000. This analysis was conducted to identify the archival images offered to the general public during their consumption of contemporary media, particularly in light of the professional push to craft a public image of archives as both an open and valuable resource during the late twentieth and early twenty-first century. The results show a divide between portrayals of the profession as positive, open, forward-thinking, and community-oriented, and portrayals reliant on older stereotypes of archival experiences as restricted, confusing, boring, and uncomfortable, although almost all cases emphasize the value and usefulness of archival materials and archival work.

description: This paper describes version 2 of the OI Exchange Format (OIFITS), the standard for exchanging calibrated data from optical (visible/infrared) interferometers. This IAU-endorsed standard has been in use for 10 years at most of the past and current optical interferometer projects, including COAST, NPOI, IOTA, CHARA, VLTI, PTI and the Keck interferometer. Software is available for reading, writing and merging OI Exchange Format files. This version 2 provides definitions of additional data tables (e.g. for polarisation measurements), addressing the needs of future interferometric instruments. Also included are data columns for a more rigorous description of measurement errors and their correlations. In that, this document is a step towards the design of a common data model for optical interferometry. Finally, the main OIFITS header is expanded with several new keywords summarising the content to allow data base searches.
description: This is a normative document, intended to be versioned here on ArXiv. This is version #5: length of TARGET and SPECTYP in OI_TARGET are now 32, with lesser lengths accepted but ideally triggering a warning upon reading. The exemple value for the main header's keyword REFERENC has been changed and is now the ADS bibcode of the published version of this paper

description: Motivated by recent experiments, where a voltage biased Josephson junction is placed in series with a resonator, the classical dynamics of the circuit is studied in various domains of parameter space. This problem can be mapped onto the dissipative motion of a single degree of freedom in a nonlinear time-dependent potential, where in contrast to conventional settings the nonlinearity appears in the driving while the static potential is purely harmonic. For long times the system approaches steady states which are analyzed in the underdamped regime over the full range of driving parameters including the fundamental resonance as well as higher and sub-harmonics. Observables such as the dc-Josephson current and the radiated microwave power give direct information about the underlying dynamics covering phenomena as bifurcations, irregular motion, up- and down conversion. Due to their tunability, present and future set-ups provide versatile platforms to explore the changeover from linear response to strongly nonlinear behavior in driven dissipative systems under well defined conditions.

Mops congicusJ. A. Allen, 1917, “Medje, Belgian Congo [= DR Congo].” Mops congicus previously included M. trevori as a subspecies. Monotypic. Distribution. Patchily in C Africa from S Cameroon E into N DR Congo and W Uganda. Descriptive notes. Head-body c.91-94 mm, tail 39-58 mm, ear 21-28 mm, hindfoot 13-17 mm, forearm 54-58 mm; weight 42-64 g. Fur is short, quite sparse becoming absent on rump and flanks, brown to almost black above, with isolated, pale hairs; variable below, with a strong wash of gray, brown or rusty, resulting in a mottled appearance, with no contrasting mid-ventral markings or flank-stripe. Upper lip has 7-8 well-defined wrinkles on each side and many spoon-hairs. Ears are blackish, thick, and leathery, not reaching snout when laid forward. There is a pronounced and well-defined dark patch behind and below the ear, more developed than in Trevor's Free-tailed Bat (M. trevori). Inner margins of ears are joined across forehead by a thick interaural band with strong cartilaginous pocket-like support; it is unknown whether or not this contains an interaural crest. Tragus is minute, and concealed by antitragus, which is large and rounded dorsally, with a rather straight anterior edge. Wings are blackish brown. Anterior palate is closed and basisphenoid pits are deep and well developed. As is typical for Mops, cusps on M? are V-shaped rather than N-shaped—i.e. with third ridge being much reduced. Habitat. Lowland rainforest, coastal forest, and rainforest-savanna mosaic vegetation. Food and Feeding. No information. Breeding. Pregnant females have been recorded in September in north-eastern DR Congo and in March in western Uganda. Where noted, pregnant females had a single embryo. Activity patterns.

Coq au Catalog: An Analysis of the Description of Additions and Annotations in Manuscript Recipe Collections
Creators: name: Thompson, Allison
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2020

description: Manuscript recipe collections are valuable historic resources, particularly for the unique way they document history and the culinary legacies of women. As working documents, contributors added to and annotated recipes, giving these collections further value as primary sources. However, from an archival standpoint, their description and catalog records say little to indicate the life of the item through additions and annotations. This study seeks to improve access to manuscript recipe collections for researchers by undertaking a three-part content analysis of catalog description, materials analysis, and a descriptive comparison with the Simone Beck and Julia Child papers. In doing so, this paper provides guidance for technical services staff for addressing additions and annotations and the vital role they serve as everyday guides and family treasures from the kitchens of the past.

description: Baryon number density perturbations offer a possible route to experimentally measure baryon number susceptibilities and heat conductivity of the quark gluon plasma. We study the fluid dynamical evolution of local and event-by-event fluctuations of baryon number density, flow velocity and energy density on top of a (generalized) Bjorken expansion. To that end we use a background-fluctuation splitting and a Bessel-Fourier decomposition for the fluctuating part of the fluid dynamical fields with respect to the azimuthal angle, the radius in the transverse plane and rapidity. We examine how the time evolution of linear perturbations depends on the equation of state as well as on shear viscosity, bulk viscosity and heat conductivity for modes with different azimuthal, radial and rapidity wave numbers. Finally we discuss how this information is accessible to experiments in terms of the transverse and rapidity dependence of correlation functions for baryonic particles in high energy nuclear collisions.

description: Neurocognitive theories of value-based choice propose that people additively accumulate choice attributes when making decisions. These theories cannot explain the emergence of complex multiplicative preferences such as those assumed by prospect theory and other economic models. We investigate an interactive attention mechanism, according to which attention to attributes (like payoffs) depends on other attributes (like probabilities) attended to previously. We formalize this mechanism using a Markov attention model combined with an accumulator decision process, and test our model on eye-tracking and mouse-tracking data in risky choice. Our tests show that interactive attention is necessary to make good choices, that most participants display interactive attention and that allowing for interactive attention in accumulation-based decision models improves their predictions. By equipping established decision models with sophisticated attentional dynamics, we extend these models to describe complex economic choice, and in the process, we unify two prominent theoretical approaches to studying value-based decision making.

Creators: name: Schmalbeck, Sabine
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2020

description: This study describes a qualitative content analysis of makerspace policies at four universities in the North Carolina Triangle area: Duke University, North Carolina Central University, North Carolina State University, and University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. The purpose of this content analysis is to identify common themes and components in makerspace policies at academic institutions to help users and maker communities, using data from the makerspaces’ websites. The data analysis revealed four common makerspace policy components present at the four schools: a mission or purpose, information about access, available tools, and the inclusion of existing policies and procedures.

Complexity of Unknotting of Trivial 2-knots

Subjects: subject: Metric Geometry (math.MG)

description: We construct families of trivial $2$-knots $K_i$ in $\mathbb{R}^4$ such that the maximal complexity of $2$-knots in any isotopy connecting $K_i$ with the standard unknot grows faster than a tower of exponentials of any fixed height of the complexity of $K_i$. Here we can either construct $K_i$ as smooth embeddings and measure their complexity as the ropelength (a.k.a the crumpledness) or construct PL-knots $K_i$, consider isotopies through PL knots, and measure the complexity of a PL-knot as the minimal number of flat $2$-simplices in its triangulation. These results contrast with the situation of classical knots in $\mathbb{R}^3$, where every unknot can be untied through knots of complexity that is only polynomially higher than the complexity of the initial knot.
A Case Study of the Comparison of Philosophical Underpinnings of Educational Leadership in Higher Education.
Creators: name: Noriey, Ismail
Publisher: name: figshare
Year: 2022
Subjects: Education

description: This research paper highlights the comparison of the philosophical underpinnings of educational leadership in higher education. Generally, this study has reviewed the relevant literature related to the two journal articles. The discussion of the major techniques on educational philosophies originate from general philosophical systems and why the first researcher has used mixed methods such as direct observation, documentary analysis, and interviews and second researcher only used quantitative methods such as; questionnaires. To prove this study an experimental study was conducted to explore the philosophical underpinnings of three major educational research paradigms; philosophical and theoretical approaches of two papers, ethical issues in the context of two papers and research methodologies in the two papers. The main aim was to sketch and explore the interrelationships between each researcher considering paradigm’s ontology, epistemology, methods and methodology. The results showed that both articles have more critical indicators of the literature reviews and descriptive methodology that is solid to data analysis. The first researcher believes that there is no single paradigm that could satisfactorily deal with all of the required methodologies aspects. In terms of data analysis, the second researcher has more remarks in margins and also started to write down ideas. Consequently, this paper is relevant to every researcher in higher education who is a reader of research. Finally, the results show a significant interpretation for the researcher to focus on the interrelationships between each researcher considering the paradigm’s ontology and epistemology.

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Plasma Physics (physics.plasm-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We introduce a method for calculating the probability with which a low-energy electron hitting the wall of a plasma gets stuck in it and apply the method to a dielectric wall with positive electron affinity smaller than the bandgap using MgO as an example. In accordance with electron beam scattering data we obtain energy-dependent sticking probabilities significantly less than unity and question thereby for electrons the perfect absorber assumption unisono used in plasma modeling.

QUANTITATIVE ANALYSIS TO COMPARE SMART CITIES
Creators: name: Suchi Parekh
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2020

description: Today, a lot of research is being done to determine the top smart cities in the world. Most of this research work rank the cities on the basis of qualitative analysis. Qualitative methods typically use subjective judgment and not statistical data and therefore, although, they may provide valuable findings, it is difficult to prove the results. Our work is a step towards performing quantitative analysis to rank and compare smart cities. We randomly selected four smart cities and used their open data to figure out if we really have data that can be used to perform quantitative analysis to compare them. We focused on the ‘transportation’ dimensionality and devised a method to extract information from
open data. Our method is also independent of dimensionality and data and therefore can be applied to other dimensionalities to gather an overall picture of the smart cities and perform quantitative research to compare them.

New example of integrable nonlinear coupled equations with exact asymptotic singular solution in the context of laser-plasma interaction
Creators: name: Latifi, A.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Exactly Solvable and Integrable Systems (nlin.SI)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A new set of nonlinear coupled equations is derived in the context of small amplitude limit of the general wave equations in a fluid type warm electrons/cold ions plasma irradiated by a continuous laser beam. This limit is proved to be integrable by means of the spectral transform theory with singular dispersion relation. An exact asymptotic solution is obtained. This model accounts for a nonlinear mode coupling of the electrostatic waves with the ion sound wave, and is shown to be unstable and does not propagate any stable small amplitude solution. This instability is understood as a continuous secular transfer of energy from the electrostatic wave to the ion sound wave through the ponderomotive force. The exact mechanism of this transfer is exposed. The dynamics of this energy transfer results in a singular asymptotic behavior of the ion sound wave which explains the low penetration of the incident laser beam.
