Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: This study explores workplace stress, its causes, effects, and the effectiveness of stress management programs. Based on a survey of 120 employees, major stressors identified include heavy workload, tight deadlines, and lack of support. Statistical analysis shows a relationship between stress management programs and reduced stress levels. However, no significant link was found between stress impact and employees' ability to concentrate. The study highlights the need for better support systems, improved managerial practices, and initiatives promoting work-life balance to manage stress effectively.

description: Fiber-wireless access technology is an active research topic for future generation communication networks. However, the nonlinear distortion of fiber can cause problems for higher-order modulation signals. The use of shorter wavelength radio frequency signals in 5G leads to requiring more base stations, which would increase network management complexity. This thesis explores the use of deep learning in coordinated multipoint transmission, and develops novel phase noise tolerant receivers that use incoherent detection and deep learning algorithms. Research findings demonstrate the ability of deep learning algorithms and the possibility to implement deep learning algorithms in future generation cognitive-communication networks.
title: A Radio Frequency Interference Survey of Alston Observatory for Small Radio Telescopes
Creators: name: Everest, Christopher Paul John
Publisher: name: University of Central Lancashire
Year: 2024

description: Alston Observatory currently only has optical telescopes, however there is a potential for a Small Radio Telescope (SRT) for the site as a teaching aid. An investigation into the Radio Environment of the site found that around the bandwidth a telescope would observe at (1420 MHz) the noise floor is acceptable for a radio telescope being observed at -195 dBW{m2{Hz, which should be able to view objects around the same brightness as M31 in the 21cm line with a minimum 2.4m dish on the site. A few peaks of potential interference were found at 1419.649 MHz, 1420.609 MHz, and 1421.569 MHz that were consistent across the site and also in a comparison reading done in Preston, the nearby city. Although no confirmed source was found, the fact that the peaks did not change over the site and were also present in Preston indicate they may be from the survey setup, which requires further investigation. There was also interference near the main building on the site, the Planetarium, as expected, leading to a suggestion of the placement of the telescope to be on top of the Planetarium building, where RFI from the building would not be able to enter the dish, and where shielding can be placed below the telescope to minimise any interference regardless. It was also found that the current Moses Holden Telescope would not cause interference in the 1420 MHz band, meaning that both telescopes could be used concurrently if needed. A potential issue going forward however is that these results may over the next few years, with the increasing amount of satellite constellations, which could make the site unusable for radio observations at certain bands.

description: BES data on $J/ψ\to γ(K^{\pm} K_S^0 π^{\mp})$ are presented. There is a strong peak due to $η(1440)/ι$, which is fitted with a Breit-Wigner amplitude with $s$-dependent widths for decays to $K^*K$, $κK$, $ηππ$ and $ρρ$; $κ$ refers to the $Kπ$ S-wave. At a $K\bar{K}π$ mass of $\sim 2040$ MeV, there is a second peak with width $\sim 400$ MeV; $J^P = 0^-$ is preferred over $1^+$ and $2^-$ respectively by 5.2 and 6.8 standard deviations. It is a possible candidate for a $0^-$ $s\bar sg$ hybrid partner of $π(1800)$.

description: We prove that if $F$ is a non-zero (possibly non-cuspidal) vector-valued Siegel modular form of any degree, then it has infinitely many non-zero Fourier coefficients which are indexed by half-integral matrices having odd, square-free (and thus fundamental) discriminant. The proof uses an induction argument in the setting of vector-valued modular forms. In an Appendix, as an application of a variant of our result and building upon the work of A. Pollack, we show how to obtain an unconditional proof of the functional equation of the spinor $L$-function of a holomorphic cuspidal Siegel eigenform of degree $3$.

description: The size of the emission volume of pions and kaons, r_{ππ} and r_{KK}, were measured in the hadronic Z^0 decays through the two-pion and two-kaon Bose-Einstein correlations near threshold. Recently the emitter size of the two identical baryons, ΛΛ(\bar Λ\bar Λ), was evaluated from the dependence of the fraction of the spin S=1 state on the energy near threshold where it is affected by the Pauli exclusion principle. Here we show that the r dependence on the particle masses, namely the hierarchy r_{ππ} > r_{KK} > r_{ΛΛ} observed in the Z^0 hadronic decays, is well described in terms of the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. A good description can also be obtained via the virial theorem when applied to a general QCD potential. Other available approaches are also discussed.

Electrochemical Method Based On Molecularly Imprinted Polymers For Drug Detection
Creators: name: Almabadi, Meshal
Publisher: name: University of Leicester
Year: 2024
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: The research discusses the development of innovative electrochemical sensors using molecularly imprinted polymer nanoparticles (nano-MIPs) for the detection of Amphetamine, Diclofenac, and Fentanyl. These nano-MIPs, often called "plastic antibodies" or "synthetic receptors", are promising materials for the development of selective, affordable, rapid, and durable sensors due to their molecular recognition capabilities.
In chapter two, an electrochemical sensor for Amphetamine was created using different silanes (APTES and AHAMTES) to prepare nano-MIPs. The produced nano-MIPs were characterised using dynamic light scattering (DLS) and a transmission electron microscope (TEM). Their performance within the range 75 nM up to 220 nM in a phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) showed sensitivities of 0.2745 μA-1 nM and 0.290 μA-1 nM, with limits of detection (LODs) of 0.11 nM and 0.10 nM respectively. In human plasma, these values shifted slightly, but both showed high selectivity, and reproducibility towards Amphetamine.
The third chapter enhanced the Amphetamine sensor's performance by incorporating fabricated graphene oxide ink into the screen-printed platinum electrode. The Amphetamine sensor's performance further improved, achieving a sensitivity of 0.452 μA-1 in PBS and 0.4041 μA-1 nM in human plasma, with even lower LODs.
The fourth chapter, the first sub chapter focused on the detection of Diclofenac using nano-MIPs synthesized through a solid-phase synthesis approach. The nano-MIPs were characterised and used in the developed and fabricated sensor for the detection of diclofenac in the model solution and spiked biological samples using DPV. DLS, TEM, and SEM were used to characterize the nano-MIPs. The responses of the diclofenac nano-MIP sensor in the PBS were in the range of 50 μM–800 μM with a sensitivity number of 0.055 μM; the LOD was 2.42 μM. Whereas, the fabricated using graphene ink, in PBS, the sensor's sensitivity was 0.046 μM with an LOD of 4.11 μM. When the sensor was applied to a biological context, it demonstrated a sensitivity of 0.072 μM and an LOD of approximately 4.18 μM, highlighting its potential for medical applications.Lastly, in the second sub chapter a sensor was developed for fentanyl using nano-MIPs. In PBS, whiten the range of 5 nM and 60 nM showed a sensitivity of 0.445 μA μM-1, an LOD of 0.28 nM, and a limit of quantification (LOQ) of 0.85 nM. When applied to human plasma, its sensitivity was 0.4077 μA μM-1, with LOD and LOQ values of 1.65 nM and 5 nM, respectively.
Overall, the study demonstrates the potential of nano-MIPs as "plastic antibodies" for the development of selective, cost-effective, rapid, and stable electrochemical sensors for detecting these specific substances.

publisherIdentifier: https://ror.org/04zjtrb98
publisherIdentifierScheme: ROR
Year: 1989

description: Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) building operations with emphasis on reduced energy costs and occupant comfort require a dynamic control of short response (minutes) elements of HVAC systems. Hence, it is imperative to acquire better methods o-f non-linear modeling for prescription of thermal controls which wi 11 regulate space conditions over wide parameter ranges without undue cycling or steady state errors. A first step towards this goal is identification and inclusion of short response dynamics elements in the HVAC systems model while retaining essential non-linearities. A single zone environmental chamber is modeled in the heating mode. In the model, non­ linear dynamic control of variable air flow rate is central to manipulating the thermal mass of the chamber to delay the requirement for heating. The time dependent energy and mass trans-fer equations were success-fully solved in the time domain using a fourth order Runge-Kutta differential equation solver with variable time step on a microcomputer.

Experiments were performed on an environmental chamber to measure air temperature response, while testing the ability of the system to maintain a set dry bulb temperature during different control scenarios. The results show that, the response of the non-linear feed back system is sensitive to changes in parameter such as heat input, mass flow rate of air, and heat transfer coefficients. For a small change in a parameter, the system response may go from a stable state to a cyclically stable, or even to an unstable state. The model simulation time trajectories captured these controllability characteristics of the thermal room experiment.

description: Political and economic liberalization have spread rapidly around the globe in the past decade. Few argue that democratization is inconsistent with sustainable development. Many, however, have a less sanguine view of economic liberalization. In their view, market-led economic growth has yielded levels of consumption in developed countries that cannot be sustained, much less attained by developing countries. Consumption is seen as being inherently linked to environmental degradation and resource depletion. The hypothesis that environmental degradation is linked to private consumption, while seemingly logical, is not supported by cross-country data on air and water pollution compiled since the early 1970s by the Global Environmental Monitoring System or by cross-country data on forest cover for 1980-90 compiled by FAO. Nor do data on mineral reserves support the argument that consumption is undermining development prospects by leading to escalating depletion of energy and other natural resources. There is therefore no inevitable tradeoff between private consumption and environmental quality or resource availability. This should not be surprising. The root cause of environmental degradation is not the level of consumption, but rather market and policy failures that lead consumers and producers to ignore the full social costs of their decisions. Attention should focus not on capping consumption levels, but rather on addressing these market and policy failures. Economic and political liberalization, combined with environmental policy reform, is the way to do this.

description: We describe a new type of gravity-matter models where modified f(R)=R+R^2 gravity couples non-canonically to a scalar "inflaton", to the bosonic sector of the electroweak particle model and to a special nonlinear gauge field with a square-root of the standard Maxwell/Yang-Mills kinetic term simulating QCD confining dynamics. Our construction is based on the powerful formalism of non-Riemannian space-time volume-forms - alternative metric-independent volume elements defined in terms of auxiliary antisymmetric tensor gauge fields. Our model provides a unified Lagrangian action principle description of: (i) the evolution of both "early" and "late" universe by the "inflaton" scalar field; (ii) gravity-inflaton-assisted dynamical generation of Higgs spontaneous breakdown of electroweak gauge symmetry in the "late" universe, as well as dynamical suppression of electroweak breakdown in the "early" universe; (iii) gravity-inflaton-assisted dynamical generation of QCD-like confinement in the "late" universe and suppression of confinement in the "early" universe due to the special interplay with the dynamics of the QCD-simulating nonlinear gauge field.

Constraints of Mixing Angles from Lepton Number Violating Processes

Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: We discuss the constraints of lepton mixing angles from lepton number violating processes such as neutrinoless double beta decay, (μ^-)-(e^+) conversion and K decay, $K^- \to π^+μ^-μ^-$ which are allowed only if neutrinos are Majorana particles. The rates of these processes are proportional to the averaged neutrino mass defined by $_{a b}\equiv |\sum_{j=1}^{3}U_{a j} U_{b j}m_j|$ in the absence of right-handed weak coupling. Here $a, b (j)$ are flavour(mass) eigen states and $U_{a j}$ is the left-handed lepton mixing matrix. We obtain the consistency conditions which are satisfied irrelevant to the concrete values of CP violation phases (three phases in Majorana neutrinos). These conditions constrain the lepton mixing angles, neutrino masses $m_i$ and (< m_ν >_{a b}). By using these constraints we obtain the limits on the averaged neutrino masses for (μ^-)-(e^+) conversion and K decay, $K^- \to π^+μ^-μ^-$.

description: Although steady, isotropic Darcy flows are inherently laminar and non-mixing, it is well understood that transient forcing via engineered pumping schemes can induce rapid, chaotic mixing in groundwater. In this study we explore the propensity for such mixing to arise in natural groundwater systems subject to cyclical forcings, e.g. tidal or seasonal influences. Using a conventional linear groundwater flow model subject to tidal forcing, we show that under certain conditions these flows generate Lagrangian transport and mixing phenomena (chaotic advection) near the tidal boundary. We show that aquifer heterogeneity, storativity, and forcing magnitude cause reversals in flow direction over the forcing cycle which, in turn, generate coherent Lagrangian structures and chaos. These features significantly augment fluid mixing and transport, leading to anomalous residence time distributions, flow segregation, and the potential for profoundly altered reaction kinetics. We define the dimensionless parameter groups which govern this phenomenon and explore these groups in connection with a set of well-characterised coastal systems. The potential for Lagrangian chaos to be present near discharge boundaries must be recognized and assessed in field studies.

After getting their matrix-entropy, we discuss a way of counting of microstates in matrix theory. As Yang Mills field theory we propose the gauged world volume theory of the 11-d KK monopole.

description: Sustainable Development Goals have brought optimism around ‘agriculture for development’ but also questioned agribusinesses in sustainable development. This paper assesses how an agribusiness’ power exploits domains to exert control over industry governance. Using interviews and group discussions from three smallholder outgrower schemes under Illovo Sugar Plc in Zambia, the paper demonstrates that corporations can deploy the ‘power of presence’ to influence national policy development, and sustainability in regional and local practices. Investment and trade policies currently foster agribusinesses but overlook environmental assessments that expose social and ecological contradictions such as on competing water uses. State-donor relations enable smallholder integration in sugarcane as poverty reduction whilst agribusinesses are limiting their participation through controls on resources and production systems. By analysing power expressions, we show how possibilities of sustainable agriculture and rural development are undermined by agribusiness practices. We suggest that current policy efforts around ‘agriculture for development’ in Zambia are about entrenching power and interests of an agribusiness, neglecting industry expansion and sustainability. The paper highlights the limits and importance of domestic institutions in framing large-scale agricultural investments as well as mediating corporate practices that will be required to provide a greater focus on national planning processes for sustainable agriculture and rural development.
Long-range two-body final-state interactions and direct CP asymmetry in {B}^{+}\toπ^{+} {K}^{0} decay

description: We present a calculation of the direct CP asymmetry, $A_{CP}^{dir}$, for the process $B^+ \to π^+ K^0$ including the effects of long-range inelastic final-state interactions (FSI). We admit three channels in our calculation: $B^+ \to (π^+ K^0), (ηK^+)$, and $(D_s^+ \bar{D}^0)$. The strong scattering is described in terms of Pomeron and Regge exchanges. We find that the direct CP asymmetry is enhanced by a factor of $\sim 3$ as a result of FSI, but remains well short of the claims of (10 - 20)% in recent literature. A critical assessment of papers claiming large CP asymmetries is also presented.

The h-BN films form ~2-micrometer size grains with a preferred orientation of 30 degrees relative to the surface graphene. Low-energy electron microscopy is employed to provide definitive signatures of the number and composition of two-dimensional (2D) planes across the surface. These grains are found to form by substitution for the surface graphene, with the C atoms produced by this substitution then being incorporated below the h-BN (at the interface between the existing graphene and the SiC) to form a new graphene plane.

description: Purpose—Leaflet thrombosis is a significant adverse event
after transcatheter aortic valve (TAV) replacement (TAVR).
The purpose of our study was to present a semi-empirical,
mathematical model that links patient-specific anatomic,
valve, and flow parameters to predict likelihood of leaflet
thrombosis.
Methods—The two main energy sources of neo-sinus (NS)
washout after TAVR include the jet flow downstream of the
TAV and NS geometric change in volume due to the leaflets
opening and closing. Both are highly dependent on patient
anatomic and hemodynamic factors. As rotation of blood
flow is prevalent in both the sinus of Valsalva and then the
NS, we adopted the vorticity flux or circulation (C) as a
metric quantifying overall washout. Leaflet thrombus volumes
were segmented based on hypo-attenuating leaflet
thickening (HALT) in post-TAVR patient’s gated computed
tomography. C was assessed using dimensional scaling as
well as computational fluid dynamics (CFD) respectively and
correlated to the thrombosis volumes using sensitivity and
specificity analysis.
Results—C in the NS, that accounted for patient flow and
anatomic conditions derived from scaling arguments significantly
better predicted the occurrence of leaflet thrombus
than CFD derived measures such as stasis volumes or wall
shear stress. Given results from the six patient datasets
considered herein, a threshold C value of 28.0 yielded a
sensitivity and specificity of 100% where patients with
Gamma < 28 developed valve thrombosis. A 10% error in
measurements of all variables can bring the sensitivity
specificity down to 87%.
Conclusion—A predictive model relating likelihood of valve
thrombosis using C in the NS was developed with promising
sensitivity and specificity. With further studies and improvements,
this predictive technology may lead to alerting
physicians on the risk for thrombus formation following
TAVR.

description: The majority of the proteins encoded in the genomes of eukaryotes contain more than one domain. Reasons for high prevalence of multi-domain proteins in various organisms have been attributed to higher stability and functional and folding advantages over single-domain proteins. Despite these advantages, many proteins are composed of only one domain while their homologous domains are part of multi-domain proteins. In the study presented here, differences in the properties of protein domains in single-domain and multi-domain systems and their influence on functions are discussed. We studied 20 pairs of identical protein domains, which were crystallized in two forms (a) tethered to other proteins domains and (b) tethered to fewer protein domains than (a) or not tethered to any protein domain. Results suggest that tethering of domains in multi-domain proteins influences the structural, dynamic and energetic properties of the constituent protein domains. 50% of the protein domain pairs show significant structural deviations while 90% of the protein domain pairs show differences in dynamics and 12% of the residues show differences in the energetics. To gain further insights on the influence of tethering on the function of the domains, 4 pairs of homologous protein domains, where one of them is a full-length single-domain protein and the other protein domain is a part of a multi-domain protein, were studied. Analyses showed that identical and structurally equivalent functional residues show differential dynamics in homologous protein domains, though comparable dynamics between in-silico generated chimera protein and multi-domain proteins were observed. From these observations, the differences observed in the functions of homologous proteins could be attributed to the presence of tethered domain. Overall, we conclude that tethered domains in multi-domain proteins not only provide stability or folding advantages but also influence pathways resulting in differences in function or regulatory properties.

description: Bodypainting is widespread in African, Australian and Papua New Guinean indigenous communities. Many bodypaintings use white or bright yellow/grey/beige stripes on brown skin. Where the majority of people using bodypainting presently live, blood-sucking horseflies are abundant, and they frequently attack the naked brown regions of the human body surface with the risk of transmitting the pathogens of dangerous diseases. Since horseflies are deterred by the black and white stripes of zebras, we hypothesized that white-striped paintings on dark brown human bodies have a similar effect. In a field experiment in Hungary, we tested this hypothesis. We show that the attractiveness to horseflies of a dark brown human body model significantly decreases, if it is painted with the white stripes that are used in bodypaintings. Our brown human model was 10 times more attractive to horseflies than the white-striped brown model, and a beige model, which was used as a control, attracted two times more horseflies than the striped brown model. Thus, white-striped bodypaintings, such as those used by African and Australian people, may serve to deter horseflies, which is an advantageous byproduct of these bodypaintings that could lead to reduced irritation and disease transmission by these blood-sucking insects.

description: We analyse CP-violating effects in Z \to 4 jet decays, assuming the presence of CP-violating effective $Z b \bar{b} G$ and $Z b \bar{b} G G$ couplings. We discuss the influence of these couplings on the decay width. Furthermore, we propose various strategies of a direct search for such CP-violating couplings by using different CP-odd observables. The present data of LEP 1 should give significant information on the couplings.

description: We study several important fine properties for the family of fractional Brownian motions with Hurst parameter $H$ under the $(p,r)$-capacity on classical Wiener space introduced by Malliavin. We regard fractional Brownian motions as Wiener functionals via the integral representation discovered by Decreusefond and Üstünel, and show non differentiability, modulus of continuity, law of iterated Logarithm(LIL) and self-avoiding properties of fractional Brownian motion sample paths using Malliavin calculus as well as the tools developed in the previous work by Fukushima, Takeda and etc. for Brownian motion case.

description: Preprocessing the input patterns seems the simplest approach to invariant pattern recognition by neural networks. The Fourier transform has been proposed as an appropriate and elegant preprocessor. Nevertheless, we show in this work that the performance of this kind of preprocessor is strongly affected by the number of stored informations. This is because the phase of the Fourier transform plays a more important role than the amplitude in the recognition process.

Notfallsanitäterinnen und Notfallsanitäter (NotSan) können unter anderem aufgrund einer Delegation durch den Ärztlichen Leiter Rettungsdienst (ÄLRD) eigenständig heilkundlich tätig werden. Welche heilkundlichen Maßnahmen hierfür geeignet sind, wurde in einer Umfrage unter allen bayerischen ÄLRD, den Ärztlichen Bezirksbeauftragten (ÄBRD) sowie dem Landesbeauftragten (ÄLBRD) erhoben.

Methodik 
Mittels Fragebögen wurden 43 heilkundliche Maßnahmen bezüglich ihrer Delegierbarkeit nach §4 Abs. 2 Nr. 2c NotSanG (ÄLRD-Delegation) bewertet.

Ergebnisse 
Zwölf Maßnahmen wurden im Konsens als delegierbar (davon 4 mit starkem Konsens), 10 als nicht delegierbar eingestuft (5 mit starkem Konsens). Von den bereits in Bayern delegierten Tätigkeiten erreichte die i. v. Medikamentengabe knapp keine Zustimmung.

Schlussfolgerung 
Es liegt erstmals ein konsentierter Katalog an durch ÄLRD delegierbaren heilkundlichen Tätigkeiten durch NotSan vor. Die Delegierbarkeit stellt eine notwendige, aber keine hinreichende Bedingung zur Berücksichtigung der betreffenden Maßnahmen in Delegationsvorgaben dar.

description: The most stringent bounds on the anomalous magnetic and electric dipole moments of the tau lepton was derived by Escribano and Massó[6] from the Z width at LEP in an effective lagrangian approach to the new physics. In this paper we point out that the higher dimensional operators introduced by Escribano and Massó not only modify the neutral currents of the tau lepton to Z gauge boson and the photon, but also induce lepton flavor violation (LFV). The size of the LFV effect depends crucially on the dynamics of the lepton mass generation. Assuming the lepton mass matrices in the form of an Fritzsch ansatz, we point out that the experimental limit on $μ\to e γ$ will push the anomalous magnetic and electric dipole moments of the tau lepton down to $10^{-11}$ and $10^{-25} e cm$ respectively.

description: Within the burgeoning expansion of deep learning and computer vision across the different fields of science, when it comes to urban development, deep learning and computer vision applications are still limited towards the notions of smart cities and autonomous vehicles. Indeed, a wide gap of knowledge appears when it comes to cities and urban regions in less developed countries where the chaos of informality is the dominant scheme. How can deep learning and Artificial Intelligence (AI) untangle the complexities of informality to advance urban modelling and our understanding of cities? Various questions and debates can be raised concerning the future of cities of the North and the South in the paradigm of AI and computer vision. In this paper, we introduce a new method for multipurpose realistic-dynamic urban modelling relying on deep learning and computer vision, using deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN), to sense and detect informality and slums in urban scenes from aerial and street view images in addition to detection of pedestrian and transport modes. The model has been trained on images of urban scenes in cities across the globe. The model shows a good validation of understanding a wide spectrum of nuances among the planned and the unplanned regions, including informal and slum areas. We attempt to advance urban modelling for better understanding the dynamics of city developments. We also aim to exemplify the significant impacts of AI in cities beyond how smart cities are discussed and perceived in the mainstream. The algorithms of the URBAN-i model are fully-coded in Python programming with the pre-trained deep learning models to be used as a tool for mapping and city modelling in the various corner of the globe, including informal settlements and slum regions.
