description: We present the detection of compact radio structures of fourteen radio-loud narrow line Seyfert 1 (NLS1) galaxies from Very Long Baseline Array observations at 5 GHz, which were performed in 2013. While 50\% of the sources of our sample show a compact core only, the remaining 50\% exhibit a core-jet structure. The measured brightness temperatures of the cores range from $10^{8.4}$ to $10^{11.4}$ K with a median value of $10^{10.1}$ K, indicating that the radio emission is from non-thermal jets, and that, likely, most sources are not strongly beamed, then implying a lower jet speed in these radio-loud NLS1 galaxies. In combination with archival data taken at multiple frequencies, we find that seven sources show flat or even inverted radio spectra, while steep spectra are revealed in the remaining seven objects. Although all these sources are very radio-loud with $R > 100$, their jet properties are diverse, in terms of their milli-arcsecond (mas) scale (pc scale) morphology and their overall radio spectral shape. The evidence for slow jet speeds (i.e., less relativistic jets), in combination with the low kinetic/radio power, may offer an explanation for the compact VLBA radio structure in most sources. The mildly relativistic jets in these high accretion rate systems are consistent with a scenario, where jets are accelerated from the hot corona above the disk by the magnetic field and the radiation force of the accretion disk. Alternatively, a low jet bulk velocity can be explained by low spin in the Blandford-Znajek mechanism.

description: We introduce a concise quantum operator formula for bosonization in which the Lie group structure appears in a natural way. The connection between fermions and bosons is found to be exactly the connection between Lie group elements and the group parameters. Bosonization is an extraordinary way of expressing the equation of motion of a complex fermion field in terms of a real scalar boson in two dimensions. All the properties of the fermion field theory are known to be preserved under this remarkable transformation with substantial simplification and elucidation of the original theory, much like Lie groups can be studied by their Lie algebras.

description: The rate of home-ownership across Europe and in many countries has increased significantly in recent decades. This is partly because most governments have promoted home-ownership as part of an asset-based welfare system with the notion that home-ownership will generate wealth for households through the accumulation of housing equity. Changes in house prices play an important role in the generation of the housing equity and the wealth inherent in home-ownership. In general, house prices change in cycles of upward and downward trends. Each of these cycles may be driven by different sets of fundamental determinants and by the prevailing conditions in the wider economy. Over the long term, home-owners usually accumulate significant housing equity, yielding welfare benefits. However, even periods of brief house price decline can erode the value of housing equity accrued over several years. Following the 2007-08 Global Financial Crisis (GFC), for example, the severe decline in house prices caused many recent home-owners to run into negative equity. Figures from Statistics Netherlands show that following the GFC, in the Netherlands alone the total wealth in residential properties declined from e738,449 million in 2009 to e721,018 million by the end of 2012. In effect, home-ownership involves significant financial risk, which can adversely affect the balance sheets of households. These risks require a better understanding and proper measurements. However, it is also important to first understand house price dynamics, which significantly affect the process of equity generation. A thorough understanding of house price dynamics is necessary if we are to identify innovative ways of insuring against the risks associated with home-ownership.

description: A transfer from a richer individual to a poorer one seems to be the most intuitive and straightforward way of reducing income inequality in a society. However, can such a transfer reduce the welfare of the society? We show that a rich-to-poor transfer can induce a response in the individuals’ behaviors which actually exacerbates, rather than reduces, income inequality as measured by the Gini index. We use this result as an input in assessing the social welfare consequence of the transfer. Measuring social welfare by Sen’s social welfare function, we show that the transfer reduces social welfare. These two results are possible even for individuals whose utility functions are relatively simple (namely, at most quadratic in all terms) and incorporate a distaste for low relative income. We first present the two results for a population of two individuals. We subsequently provide several generalizations. We show that our argument holds for a population of any size, and that the choice of utility functions which trigger this response is not singular - the results obtain for an open set of the space of admissible utility functions. In addition, we show that a rich-to-poor transfer can exacerbate inequality when we employ Lorenz-domination, and that it can decrease social welfare when we draw on any increasing, Schur-concave welfare function.

description: Local galaxies with specific star-formation rates (star-formation rate per unit mass; sSFR~0.2-10/Gyr) as high as distant galaxies (z~1-3), are very rich in HI. Those with low stellar masses, log M_star (M_sun)=8-9, for example, have M_HI/M_star~5-30. Using continuity arguments of Peng et al. (2014), whereby the specific merger rate is hypothesized to be proportional to the specific star-formation rate, and HI gas mass measurements for local galaxies with high sSFR, we estimate that moderate mass galaxies, log M_star (M_sun)=9-10.5, can acquire sufficient gas through minor mergers (stellar mass ratios ~4-100) to sustain their star formation rates at z~2. The relative fraction of the gas accreted through minor mergers declines with increasing stellar mass and for the most massive galaxies considered, log M_star (M_sun)=10.5-11, this accretion rate is insufficient to sustain their star formation. We checked our minor merger hypothesis at z=0 using the same methodology but now with relations for local normal galaxies and find that minor mergers cannot account for their specific growth rates, in agreement with observations of HI-rich satellites around nearby spirals. We discuss a number of attractive features, like a natural down-sizing effect, in using minor mergers with extended HI disks to support star formation at high redshift. The answer to the question posed by the title, "Can galaxy growth be sustained through \HI-rich minor mergers?", is maybe, but only for relatively low mass galaxies and at high redshift.

Therefore, human-centered measures have been proposed, e.g. the depth. This paper discusses the depth of various games, extends it to a continuous measure. We provide new depth results and present tool (given-first-move, pie rule, size extension) for increasing it. We also use these measures for analyzing games and opening moves in Y, NoGo, Killall Go, and the effect of pie rules.

description: We consider a stationary and ergodic random field $\{ω(e) : e \in E_d\}$ that is parameterized by the edge set of the Euclidean lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$, $d \geq 2$. The random variable $ω(e)$, taking values in $[0, \infty)$ and satisfying certain moment bounds, is thought of as the conductance of the edge $e$. Assuming that the set of edges with positive conductances give rise to a unique infinite cluster $\mathcal{C}_{\infty}(ω)$, we prove a quenched invariance principle for the continuous-time random walk among random conductances under relatively mild conditions on the structure of the infinite cluster. An essential ingredient of our proof is a new anchored relative isoperimetric inequality.

description: Der Begriff der "Asozialität" als soziales Image und als sprachliches Symbol gesellschaftlicher Minderwertigkeit existiert - obwohl immer weniger aktiv benutzt - nach wie vor in den Köpfen vieler Bürger. Die Negation der Existenz des Begriffes hilft dabei bei der Bewältigung der sich hinter diesem Begriff verbergenden Problematik ebenso wenig weiter wie Versuche der Umdefinition oder Neudefinition, die Probleme eher verschleiern als lösen. Ein "ehrlicherer" Umgang mit diesem Begriff und eine gleichzeitige Hinterfragung der damit verbundenen subjektiven Vorstellungen, die mit dem Terminus "Asozialität" verbunden sind, ermöglicht ebenso wie die Darstellung der über diesen Begriff anderen zugeschriebenen objektiven Seinsqualitäten eine realistische Diskussion der tatsächlichen Probleme sowohl in den Köpfen der Definierenden, als auch in der diesen sich präsentierenden Realität.
description: Besonders bei denjenigen, die mit sozial Benachteiligten, ihrer Erscheinungsweise und ihren Problemen konfrontiert sind, stellt sich die Frage, ob die Verwendung dieses Begriff für ein entsprechendes (negatives und stigmatisierendes) Bewußtsein steht, oder ob die Benutzung der überkommenen Sprachhülse "Asozialität" unabhängig von tatsächlich vorhandenen Einstellungen ist bzw. ob lediglich die Benutzung des pejorativen Begriffes unterbleibt, ohne daß auch die damit verbundenen Vorstellungen abgebaut sind.

description: We introduce a new optical tool - a "two-dimensional optical centrifuge", capable of aligning molecules in extreme rotational states. Unlike the conventional centrifuge, which confines the molecules in the plane of their rotation, its two-dimensional version aligns the molecules along a well-defined axis, similarly to the effect of a single linearly polarized laser pulse, but at a much higher level of rotational excitation. The increased robustness of ultra-high rotational states with respect to collisions results in a longer life time of the created alignment in dense media, offering new possibilities for studying and utilizing aligned molecular ensembles under ambient conditions.
Striking a balance in the Age of Terror: how are civil liberties protected in the constitutional frameworks of the United States and Germany and how are they affected by anti-terror legislation?

description: Governments play a multitude of roles in the lives of their citizens. The roles of security and protection for citizens have always been prime concerns of the State. However, the way in which States look to protect its citizens has changed because of the September 11th attacks and the growing uncertainty of stateless combatants forming terrorist cells with mounting Anti-western sentiment. The vulnerability experienced as a result of these attacks allowed many governments to implement policies that normally not be deemed constitutional by either the United State or German governments. This paper examines what rights and liberties are granted to U.S. and German citizens in their respective Constitutions and how those civil liberties have been challenged and even diminished by anti-terror legislation. I believe that the inherent civil liberties of citizens have been greatly abused by the United States and Germany and that these policies are counter productive in the fight against terrorism.

Ce produit n’aurait jamais dû lui être prescrit pour son problème de boulimie puisqu’il a été approuvé au Canada pour des maladies différentes. La réaction du gouvernement fédéral fut l’introduction du projet de loi C-17 (Loi visant à protéger les Canadiens contre les drogues dangereuses), appelé communément la Loi de Vanessa, visant à accroitre la sécurité des consommateurs en donnant de nouveaux pouvoirs à Santé Canada. Par l’entremise des concepts théoriques de l’hégémonie de Gramsci et du savoir-pouvoir de Foucault, cette étude se penche sur le développement du projet de loi dans son contexte. La méthodologie de l’analyse critique du discours permet d’identifier les discours mobilisés lors des débats parlementaires à la Chambre des communes et au Sénat, lors des comités consultatifs, ainsi que dans les médias. En somme, les discours dominants véhiculent les valeurs néolibérales et idolâtrent la science tout en limitant le concept de criminalité des sociétés pharmaceutiques. Cette recherche vise à démontrer que la nouvelle loi est plutôt symbolique en raison des influences contextuelles qui ont contribué à la modification des amendements prétendant accroitre la sécurité des Canadiens.

Influence of Stellar Multiplicity On Planet Formation. IV. Adaptive Optics Imaging of Kepler Stars With Multiple Transiting Planet Candidates

description: The Kepler mission provides a wealth of multiple transiting planet systems (MTPS). The formation and evolution of multi-planet systems are likely to be influenced by companion stars given the abundance of multi stellar systems. We study the influence of stellar companions by measuring the stellar multiplicity rate of MTPS. We select 138 bright (KP < 13.5) Kepler MTPS and search for stellar companions with AO imaging data and archival radial velocity (RV) data. We obtain new AO images for 73 MTPS. Other MTPS in the sample have archival AO imaging data from the Kepler Community Follow-up Observation Program (CFOP). From these imaging data, we detect 42 stellar companions around 35 host stars. For stellar separation 1 AU < a < 100 AU, the stellar multiplicity rate is 5.2 $\pm$ 5.0% for MTPS, which is 2.8σ lower than 21.1 $\pm$ 2.8% for the control sample, i.e., the field stars in the solar neighborhood. We identify two origins for the deficit of stellar companions within 100 AU to MTPS: (1) a suppressive planet formation, and (2) the disruption of orbital coplanarity due to stellar companions. To distinguish between the two origins, we compare the stellar multiplicity rates of MTPS and single transiting planet systems (STPS). However, current data are not sufficient for this purpose. For 100 AU < a < 2000 AU, the stellar multiplicity rates are comparable for MTPS (8.0 $\pm$ 4.0%), STPS (6.4 $\pm$ 5.8%), and the control sample (12.5 $\pm$ 2.8%).

Drying Behavior of Oil Sand Mature Fine Tailings Pre-dewatered with Superabsorbent Polymer

description: Oil sand processing to extract bitumen generates large volumes of slurry comprising water, silt, sand, clay, unrecovered bitumen, and residual chemical aides and solvents added during the extraction process. The by-product stream of the bitumen extraction is pumped into constructed tailings ponds. Managing these tailings is one of the most difficult environmental challenges for the oil sand industry. This study aims to develop a novel technique to assist in the assessment of the technologies for managing mature fine tailings (MFT) in oil sands. Innovative application of a superabsorbent polymer in the oil sands industry may provide a new method for tailings management. However, thus far, no study has addressed this research gap. In fact, fundamental knowledge of the behavior of MFTs pre-dewatered with the superabsorbent polymer could provide an important way to positively affect the speed of reclamation. To this end, comprehensive instrumentation, geo-environmental, and geotechnical analyses are carried out to obtain essential knowledge on the behavior of MFTs pre-dewatered with the polymer. The results of this study reveal that the mechanical, hydraulic, and thermal properties of the MFTs are related. Evaporation and drying shrinkage can affect the hydro-mechanical properties of the tailings and have a significant influence on the developed shear strength of the MFTs. In addition, the process-affected water includes a high concentration of the dissolved ions and organic chemicals that stem from ore extraction chemicals and tailings treatments, or that may be released from oil sands ores. Through the application of a superabsorbent polymer in the dewatering of oil sand MFTs, the chemical components are entrapped in the polymer chains, thus limiting the mobility of the major ions and trace metals in water bodies beneath the oil sand tailings pond. Results show that the application of the superabsorbent polymer considerably reduces the rate of drainage from the oil sand MFTs into water bodies, which can help mitigate the risk of seepage. The author believes that the superabsorbent polymer dewatering technique can be considered as an environmentally friendly promising approach for management of oil sands MFTs. This new technique can accelerate the pace of reclamation and thus minimize the footprint of the oil industry in Canada.
Colored-noise magnetization dynamics: from weakly to strongly correlated noise

description: Statistical averaging theorems allow us to derive a set of equations for the averaged magnetization dynamics in the presence of colored (non-Markovian) noise. The non-Markovian character of the noise is described by a finite auto-correlation time, tau, that can be identified with the finite response time of the thermal bath to the system of interest. Hitherto, this model was only tested for the case of weakly correlated noise (when tau is equivalent or smaller than the integration timestep). In order to probe its validity for a broader range of auto-correlation times, a non-Markovian integration model, based on the stochastic Landau-Lifshitz-Gilbert equation is presented. Comparisons between the two models are discussed, and these provide evidence that both formalisms remain equivalent, even for strongly correlated noise (i.e. tau much larger than the integration timestep).

Tectonic and climatic influences on bedrock channels traversing the central Andes, Bolivia
Creators: name: Syrek, Jonathon Foster
Publisher: name: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Year: 2012

description: I combine rock strength variations estimated from field data and topographic analyses of 252 channels across the semiarid southern Bolivian Andes to investigate the role of tectonics on knickpoint formation and bedrock channel steepness patterns. Sixty percent (17 of 29) of knickpoints along 4 trunk rivers are spatially correlated with a rock unit transition. Seventy-seven percent (10 of 13) of identifiable knickpoint morphologies (vertical-step versus slope-break) that correlate with a rock unit change match a recently published theoretical framework. Knickpoints in southern Bolivia are only small-scale, local features. Larger, regional steepness patterns are not simply correlated to rock strength, but instead I argue they are primarily influenced by the fold-thrust belt architecture and associated active rock uplift patterns dictated by large-scale basement deformation. In contrast, rivers in northern Bolivia possess more systematic downstream decreases in channel steepness and high profile concavities that reflect strong influences from enhanced orographic precipitation.

description: To detect a changed segment (so called epidemic changes) in a time series, variants of the CUSUM statistic are frequently used. However, they are sensitive to outliers in the data and do not perform well for heavy tailed data, especially when short segments get a high weight in the test statistic. We will present a robust test statistic for epidemic changes based on theWilcoxon statistic. To study their asymptotic behavior, we prove functional limit theorems for U-processes in Hölder spaces. We also study the finite sample behavior via simulations and apply the statistic to a real data example.

The source is found to be variable, both in flux and spectral shape, on time scales as short as a few ks. The spectrum clearly softens when the source brightens. A simple timing analysis suggests the presence of a variable soft excess that correlates with the primary continuum.

Personalized Robotic Training on a Planar Reaching Task with Simulated Stroke
Creators: name: Borghi, Bruno
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2023

description: Based on recent advancements in neuro-adaptive control, we conduct an experiment to eval- uate a novel iterative algorithm for generating customized training forces. The objective is to perturb the subjects movements during the reaching task execution with two different types of robot-generated forces, resulting in an evidence of motor adaptation induced to compen- sate these perturbations. The main hypothesis is that the adaptation process would induce changes in the feed-forward command that would result in movements’ trajectories alteration. The results indicate that after a training period with robot-generated forces, the hand trajecto- ries undergo modifications due to internal model adaptation, leading to improved performance measured in terms of position error. The experiment explores motor learning in two sets of directions and compares two conditions: one with only the curl force field, which is the first type of force, and the other adding a custom Error Field force. The findings highlight the effectiveness of the Error Field force, as the group subjected to this force demonstrates enhanced motor learning, characterized by a higher and faster decrease in error across trials. These results showcase the potential of these techniques to induce motor improvements for personal activities or neurorehabilitation purposes.

The derived potentials found to reproduce the entire GR features including the orbital dynamics of the test particle motion and the orbital trajectories, with precise accuracy. The nature of the particle orbital dynamics including their trajectory profiles in JNW and RN geometries show altogether different behavior with distinctive traits as compared to the nature of particle dynamics in Schwarzschild geometry. Exploiting the Newtonian like analogous potentials, we found that the radiative efficiency of a geometrically thin and optically thick Keplerian accretion disk around naked singularities corresponding to both JNW and RN geometries, in general, is always higher than that for Schwarzschild geometry. The derived potentials would thus be useful to study astrophysical processes, especially to investigate more complex accretion phenomena in AGNs or in XRBs in the presence of naked singularities and thereby exploring any noticeable differences in their observational features from those in the presence of BHs to ascertain outstanding debatable issues relating to gravity - whether the end state of gravitational collapse in our physical Universe renders black hole (BH) or naked singularity.

description: We propose an interesting framework for asymmetric scalar dark matter (ADM), which has novel collider phenomenology in terms of an unstable ADM bound state (ADMonium) produced via Higgs portals. ADMonium is a natural consequence of the basic features of ADM: the (complex scalar) ADM is charged under a dark local $U(1)_d$ symmetry which is broken at a low scale and provides a light gauge boson $X$. The dark gauge coupling is strong and then ADM can annihilate away into $X$-pair effectively. Therefore, the ADM can form bound state due to its large self-interaction via $X$ mediation. To explore the collider signature of ADMonium, we propose that ADM has a two-Higgs doublet portal. The ADMonium can have a sizable mixing with the heavier Higgs boson, which admits a large cross section of ADMonium production associated with $b\bar b$. The resulting signature at the LHC depends on the decays of $X$. In this paper we consider a case of particular interest: $pp\ra b\bar b+ {\rm ADMonium}$ followed by ${\rm ADMonium}\ra 2X\ra 2e^+e^-$ where the electrons are identified as (un)converted photons. It may provide a competitive explanation to heavy di-photon resonance searches at the LHC.

Effects of weight-cutting tactics on clinical concussion measures in division one collegiate wrestlers
Creators: name: Friedline, Amanda

Year: 2010

description: Our purpose was to look at the effects of weight-cutting tactics on clinical concussion measures in Division I collegiate wrestlers. Scores on clinical concussion assessment tools were analyzed at baseline and pre and post practice. Concussion tools included The SCAT2, the SAC, the BESS, the GSC, and SRT computerized test. All subjects completed the same test battery at baseline and before and after a practice. Significant differences were observed for SCAT2 when pre and post-practice measures were compared to baseline (P < 0.05) and BESS scores between baseline and post-practice (P < 0.05). Significance was also observed for GSC when pre and post-practice were compared to baseline (P < 0.05). A difference was further observed between pre and post-practice. Our results suggest that it is important for wrestlers to be tested in a euhydrated state in order to ensure weight-cutting tactics are not influencing the outcome of the clinical measures.

Passive Reduction of Methane Emissions from a Hog Waste Lagoon Using a Floating Biofilter System
Creators: name: Broadwater, Katherine
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: Roughly 9 million hogs reside in NC in confined animal feeding operations, where waste is stored in anaerobic, open-air lagoons. Methane (CH4) is an important greenhouse gas emitted from lagoons, but there are no regulatory standards. This study evaluates the efficacy of passive biofiltration as a low-cost approach to reducing CH4 emissions from lagoons. Methane emission from a representative lagoon averaged 4.2 g m-2 d-1. Laboratory experiments showed that a community of CH4 oxidizing bacteria initially colonizing a Growstone support medium and subsequently suspended over the lagoon surface was capable of oxidizing 25% of emitted CH4. However, <1% of the emitted CH4 from the lagoon was oxidized by the CH4 oxidizing community after field deployment. Laboratory experiments indicated high NH3 sensitivity of the methanotroph community initially colonizing the Growstones. Ammonia is universally emitted in open-air waste storage lagoons, suggesting that a passive biofilter is not viable for mitigating CH4 emissions.

Navigating the sad epoch: sexual exploitation within enslaved communities in the antebellum South
Creators: name: Eaves, Shannon Camille
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2010

description: I formulated this project to explore the impact of sexual exploitation on enslaved women. By closely examining the choices that enslaved women made concerning romantic and sexual relationships, I hoped to understand how sexual exploitation affected the enslaved women who experienced or feared it and the enslaved community that witnessed it. To what extent was the existence of sexual exploitation embedded in the consciousness of men and women within enslaved communities? Did this exploitation consciousness influence the choices that enslaved women made about their lives? I argue that enslaved women found various means of coping with the damage of sexual exploitation. Their victimization bred feelings of fear and distrust for some, and resentment and the courage to fight back for others. It led to the development of an exploitation consciousness among enslaved people. The choices that enslaved women made regarding sex and relationships were informed by this consciousness of sexual exploitation.

description: Ultrasound has revealed cross-sectional nerve area (CSA) reduction in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), but little is known about the sonographic nerve texture beyond CSA alterations. In a large cohort of 177 ALS patients and 57 control subjects, we investigated the covariance and disease-specific signature of several sonographic texture features of the median and ulnar nerves and their relationship to the patients’ clinical characteristics. ALS patients showed atrophic nerves, a loss of the intranerve structures’ echoic contrast, elevated coarseness, and a trend toward lower cluster shading compared with controls. A reduction in intranerve echoic contrast was related to longer disease duration and poorer functional status in ALS. Sonographic texture markers point toward a significant reorganization of the deep nerve microstructure in ALS. Future studies will be needed to further substantiate the markers’ potential to assess peripheral nerve alterations in ALS.

description: Sets of systematic laboratory experiments are presented -- combining Ultra High Vacuum cryogenic and plasma-line deposition techniques -- that allow us to compare H/D isotopic effects in the reaction of H2O (D2O) ice with the hydroxyl radical OD (OH). The latter is known to play a key role as intermediate species in the solid-state formation of water on icy grains in space. The main finding of our work is that the reaction H2O + OD --> OH + HDO occurs and that this may affect the HDO/H2O abundances in space. The opposite reaction D2O + OH --> OD + HDO is much less effective, and also given the lower D2O abundances in space not expected to be of astronomical relevance. The experimental results are extended to the other four possible reactions between hydroxyl and water isotopes and are subsequently used as input for Kinetic Monte Carlo simulations. This way we interpret our findings in an astronomical context, qualitatively testing the influence of the reaction rates.
