description: In a tunneling experiment across a quantum dot it is possible to change the coupling between the dot and the contacts at will, by properly tuning the trasparency of the barriers and the temperature. Gate voltages allow for changes of the relative position of the dot addition energies and the Fermi level of the leads. Here we discuss the two limiting cases: weak and strong coupling in the tunneling Hamiltonian. In the latter case Kondo resonant conductance can emerge at low temperature in a Coulomb blockade valley. We give a pedagogical approach to the single-channel Kondo physics at equilibrium and review the Nozieres scattering picture of the correlated fixed point. We emphasize the effect of an applied magnetic field and show how an orbital Kondo effect can take place in vertical quantum dots tuned both to an even and to an odd number of electrons at a level crossing. We extend the approach to the two-channel overscreened Kondo case and discuss recent proposals for detecting the non-Fermi liquid fixed point which could be reached at strong coupling.

Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: An interesting method of obtaining equation of state for nuclear matter, from a density dependent M3Y interaction, by minimizing the energy per nucleon is described. The density dependence parameters of the interaction are obtained by reproducing the saturation energy per nucleon and the saturation density of spin and isospin symmetric cold infinite nuclear matter. The nuclear matter equation of state thus obtained is then used to calculate the pressure, the energy density, the nuclear incompressibility and the velocity of sound in nuclear medium. The results obtained are in good agreement with experimental data and provide a unified description of radioactivity, scattering and nuclear matter.

The catalyst SiO2-Cl is compatible with a variety of aldehydes (aryl/heteroaryl) and the aromatic amines affording 2,3-disubstituted-thiazolidin-4-one analogs in 72–89% yields. Moreover, the supported catalyst was recycled several times without significant loss of catalytical activity

description: Deformation quantization is a powerful tool for quantizing theories with bosonic and fermionic degrees of freedom. The star products involved generate the mathematical structures which have recently been used in attempts to analyze the algebraic properties of quantum field theory. In the context of quantum mechanics they provide a canonical quantization procedure for systems with either bosonic of fermionic degrees of freedom. We illustrate this procedure for a number a physical examples, including bosonic, fermionic and supersymmetric oscillators. We show how non-relativistic and relativistic particles with spin can be naturally described in this framework.

description: Accurate readout of low-power optical higher-order spatial modes is of increasing importance to the precision metrology community. Mode sensors are used to prevent mode mismatches from degrading quantum and thermal noise mitigation strategies. Direct mode analysis sensors (MODAN) are a promising technology for real-time monitoring of arbitrary higher-order modes. We demonstrate MODAN with photo-diode readout to mitigate the typically low dynamic range of CCDs. We look for asymmetries in the response our sensor to break degeneracies in the relative alignment of the MODAN and photo-diode and consequently improve the dynamic range of the mode sensor. We provide a tolerance analysis and show methodology that can be applied for sensors beyond first-order spatial modes.
PROFESSIONAL VERSUS PUBLIC HEALTH GOALS: PSYCHIATRY AND COMMUNITY MENTAL HEALTH CENTERS

Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: An empirical study and an analysis of the historical record for the period 1960-1980 indicate that the Federal service program--Community Mental Health Centers--tended to produce organizational control but not control of the work process for psychiatrists. Psychiatrists, in reaction, left the CMHC program and were able to maintain autonomy as a profession in other settings, primarily in the private sector. Structural changes, hypothesized to be increasing organizational control of other professions, have not occurred in psychiatry, which may be unique among medical specialties in this regard. Psychiatrists in office practice are increasing while other specialties are decreasing. The ability of psychiatry to maintain autonomy as a profession must be understood in the context of the overall mental health and health care system. Federal programs during this period exacerbated the existing two-class system of mental health care. Federal CMHC dollars substituted for State outpatient care; Medicaid picked up the bill for the mentally ill poor, enhanced the ability to refer public patients rather than assume the unreimbursed cost of treating them in the pre-Medicare/Medicaid period, and supported the growth of the private sector. Federal reimbursement policies favored acute mental health care in settings which maximized psychiatrist autonomy among mental health professionals through the medical model, enabling the profession as a whole to resist organizational control. The two-class system of care was one of the enabling factors. The profession of psychiatry has not established the preconditions for the establishment of a professional market, however. The State has not created a monopoly for psychiatry in lieu of other mental health professions. Nor has psychiatry succeeded in establishing in the mind of the public a standardized and differentiated product. While psychiatrists have a major advantage by being physicians, they must sell their services in an increasingly competitive market. Lack of a technology exacerbates the differentiation of a distinct product. The development of professional markets for other mental health professions is more incomplete than for psychiatry, and, therefore, these other professionals are more subject to organizational control, never having gained the level of professional autonomy of psychiatry.

In the ARPES experiments the in-gap states can be detected as weak low energy satellites.

description: A topological group $X$ is called $duoseparable$ if there exists a countable set $S\subseteq X$ such that $SUS=X$ for any neighborhood $U\subseteq X$ of the unit. We construct a functor $F$ assigning to each (abelian) topological group $X$ a duoseparable (abelain-by-cyclic) topological group $FX$, containing an isomorphic copy of $X$. In fact, the functor $F$ is defined on the category of unital topologized magmas. Also we prove that each $σ$-compact locally compact abelian topological group embeds into a duoseparable locally compact abelian-by-countable topological group.

description: Delayed sowing and imprecise application of irrigation water to cotton has been the major hurdle in sustaining cotton yield in north-western India. Therefore, studies were initiated to ascertain the impact of heavy or normal level of presowing irrigation (PSI), scheduling time of first postsowing irrigation (POSI) under two sowing dates (SDs) on cotton arranged in a split block design replicated thrice. PSIh (100 mm) recorded 23.2% higher seed cotton yield over PSIn (70 mm) owing to better yield attributes and higher stand. First POSI at 4 weeks after sowing (WAS) resulted the highest yield (3072 kg ha−1), while one at 6 WAS (POSI6) recorded least due to poor population and reduced yield attributes. Water productivity under POSI6 was lesser by 29.1%, 25.2%, and 16.2% as compared to POSI3, POSI4, and POSI5, respectively. April sown crop out yielded the May sown cotton crop by 939 kg ha−1 due to better yield attributes. Nitrogen factor productivity (NFP) among SD remained higher by 23.3% for April as compared to May sowing. PSIh exhibited better NFP over PSIn. POSI6 recorded least NFP by 24.4%, 28.5%, and 16.3% as compared to POSI3, POSI4, and POSI5, respectively and was indicative of relatively poor utilization of N under delayed schedules. Therefore, planting in April after heavy PSI and scheduling first POSI at 4 WAS is best strategy for sustaining cotton yield and maximizing farmer profitability.
An investigation into installing waterless urinals at Koerner’s Pub

description: In alignment with UBC’s Sustainability goals, Koerner’s Pub is determined to lower its water consumption through practices, policies, or implementation of technology. Restrooms account for a significant portion of a restaurant’s total water consumption, mainly due to the vast amount of water flushed in the urinals. This report investigates into the possibility of installing waterless urinals at the Pub in order to eliminate water usage due to flushing. Using the Triple Bottom Line assessment, three different options are considered: keeping the existing urinals, installing new waterless urinals and retro-­‐fitting the existing urinals into waterless urinals. The investigation focuses on solutions that do not necessitate a large capital investment. After evaluating each of the three urinal options based on the triple bottom line indicators, it is found that keeping the existing flush urinals is the most economically feasible option due to high costs attached to the waterless urinals. Waterless urinals project a positive impact on the environment and are socially acceptable in places that do not have high user loads, such as Koerner’s Pub. Despite the mammoth potential water savings of approximately 47,000 liters per year, merits of waterless urinals are negated by the strong economic pushback. Since it would be impossible for the stakeholder to recover the costs for installation and maintenance of waterless urinals, it is recommended that the Pub management should just continue to use and maintain the existing flush urinals.

description: Since the beginning of precise Doppler surveys, which have had stunning success in detecting extrasolar planetary companions, one surprising enigma has emerged: the relative paucity of spectroscopic binaries where the secondary mass lies in between the stellar and planetary mass regime. This gap in the mass function for close-in (a < 3 - 4 AU) companions to solar-type stars is generally referred to as the ``Brown Dwarf Desert''. Here we report the detection of a companion to HD 137510 (G0IV), with a minimum mass of 26 M_Jupiter, moving in an eccentric orbit (e=0.4) with a period of 798 days and an orbital semimajor axis of 1.85 AU. The detection is based on precise differential radial velocity (RV) data obtained by the McDonald Observatory and Thueringer Landessternwarte Tautenburg planet search programs.

description: For any compact Hausdorff space $K$ we construct a canonical finitary coarse structure $\mathcal E_{X,K}$ on the set $X$ of isolated points of $K$. This construction has two properties: $\bullet$ If a finitary coarse space $(X,\mathcal E)$ is metrizable, then its coarse structure $\mathcal E$ coincides with the coarse structure $\mathcal E_{X,\bar X}$ generated by the Higson compactification $\bar X$ of $X$; $\bullet$ A compact Hausdorff space $K$ coincides with the Higson compactification of the coarse space $(X,\mathcal E_{X,K})$ if the set $X$ is dense in $K$ and the space $K$ is Frechet-Urysohn. This implies that a compact Hausdorff space $K$ is homeomorphic to the Higson corona of some finitary coarse space if one of the following conditions holds: (i) $K$ is perfectly normal; (ii) $K$ has weight $w(K)\leω_1$ and character $χ(K)

ANALYSIS OF THE ROLE OF THE POLICE CHIEF EXECUTIVE
Creators: name: Mayo, Louis Allen
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Problem. National Commissions over the last fifty years have cited deficiencies in local police agencies, and have recommended that local police chief executives provide leadership for improvement. Despite many governmental and academic studies, little empirical evidence exists concerning how police chief executives utilize their time to develop and implement policy, assess need for change, and provide leadership for improvement within environments which inhibit change. Methods. Henry Mintzberg's structured observation technique was used to assess time utilization of three police chief executives. James Q. Wilson's findings in Varieties of Police Behavior provided the basis for analysis of departmental records, policies and practices of the three agencies. Data were collected and analyzed, then compared with Mintzberg's and Wilson's studies. Literature concerning the police chief executive, written since 1900, and current change-management literature were reviewed. Results. The literature indicates that recommended standards of performance for the position of police chief executive frequently are not met. Appointments of qualified personnel are inhibited by lack of understanding of difficult position requirements and by local political considerations. For this and other reasons, quality change-management is rare in police agencies. The work profiles of the police chief executives under study were similar to those of executives studied by Mintzberg, with some exceptions. Police chief executives spent more time managing improvements, devoted more time to short-range issues, and handled many more documents. Much activity was external to their agency. Stated agency policies indicated that all three police chief executives subscribed to Wilson's service orientation. Some arrest data, however, indicated that Wilson's legalistic orientation was emphasized in practice. Coherent philosophy was lacking in all three agencies studied, which contributed to conflicts between policies and practices, and inhibited improvements. Conclusions. Mintzberg's roles were appropriate to the work of police chief executives. Hectic pace was observed, but time utilization was spent on short-range issues more than long range planning. Lack of a comprehensive philosophy and resultant policy conflicts inhibited planned change. Large-scale replication of this exploratory study is needed.

We prove that we cannot distinguish the states of an unextendible product basis (UPB) by LOCC even when infinite resources (infinite-dimensional ancillas, infinite number of operations). Moreover we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the LOCC distinguishability of complete product bases.

description: We present an updated phenomenological galaxy evolution model to fit the Spitzer 24, 70 and 160 microns number counts as well as all the previous mid and far infrared observations. Only a minor change of the co-moving luminosity density distribution in the previous model (Lagache, Dole, Puget 2003), combined with a slight modification of the starburst template spectra mainly between 12 and 30 microns, are required to fit all the data available. We show that the peak in the MIPS 24 micron counts is dominated by galaxies with redshift between 1 and 2, with a non negligible contribution from the z>2 galaxies (~30% at S=0.2 mJy). The very close agreement between the model and number counts at 15 and 24 microns strikingly implies that (1) the PAHs (Policyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons) features remain prominent in the redshift band 0.5 to 2.5 and (2) the IR energy output has to be dominated by ~3 10^11 Lo to ~3 10^12 Lo galaxies from redshift 0.5 to 2.5. Combining Spitzer with the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO) deep cosmological surveys gives for the first time an unbiased view of the infrared Universe from z=0 to z=2.5.

description: The persistence of poor healthcare outcomes from cardiovascular disease has caused a shift towards measuring patientreported outcomes (PROMs) as a method to improve quality of care. Some patientreported outcomes have been associated with improved mortality and readmission-rates; however, the majority of research in this field originates from high-income and/or nonAfrican countries.This protocol is for a scoping review of the current use of PROMs in care of patients with cardiovascular disease within African countries. The goal of this review is to determine the extent of published literature on the measurement and use of PROMs for cardiovascular care within Africa. In doing this, the aim is to identify: strengths and weaknesses in PROM use, barriers and assets into implementation, the pool of PROM tools in use in the setting, and gaps in the current literature.Eligible studies will have at least one study site located in an African country and use a PROM in clinical care or research of patients with any of the following primary cardiovascular diseases: coronary artery disease, heart failure, arrhythmias, cardiomyopathy, and/or congenital heart disease. Examples of patientreported outcome measures include: symptoms, functional status, depression, selfefficacy, ADLs.Methods: The search will utilize seven databases, searching from the earliest available article until the day of the final search. Each title/abstract will be screened by two reviewers, with a third reviewer serving as a tie-breaker in the case of a disagreement about the inclusion criteria. Articles which make it past the titles/abstract screen will moved to the full text review. During this phase, relevant evidence from each article will be charted on an excel sheet. Results will categorized and published in a per-reviewed manuscript.

Literature concerning the police chief executive, written since 1900, and current change-management literature were reviewed. Results. The literature indicates that recommended standards of performance for the position of police chief executive frequently are not met. Appointments of qualified personnel are inhibited by lack of understanding of difficult position requirements and by local political considerations. For this and other reasons, quality change-management is rare in police agencies. The work profiles of the police chief executives under study were similar to those of executives studied by Mintzberg, with some exceptions. Police chief executives spent more time managing improvements, devoted more time to short-range issues, and handled many more documents. Much activity was external to their agency. Stated agency policies indicated that all three police chief executives subscribed to Wilson's service orientation. Some arrest data, however, indicated that Wilson's legalistic orientation was emphasized in practice. Coherent philosophy was lacking in all three agencies studied, which contributed to conflicts between policies and practices, and inhibited improvements. Conclusions. Mintzberg's roles were appropriate to the work of police chief executives. Hectic pace was observed, but time utilization was spent on short-range issues more than long range planning. Lack of a comprehensive philosophy and resultant policy conflicts inhibited planned change. Large-scale replication of this exploratory study is needed.

description: We consider the consequences for the relic neutrino abundance if extra neutrino interactions are allowed, e.g., the coupling of neutrinos to a light (compared to $m_ν$) boson. For a wide range of couplings not excluded by other considerations, the relic neutrinos would annihilate to bosons at late times, and thus make a negligible contribution to the matter density today. This mechanism evades the neutrino mass limits arising from large scale structure.

description: Absolute gravimeters (AG) are used in geodesy, geophysics, and physics for a wide spectrum of applications. Stable gravimetric measurements over timescales from several days to decades are required to provide relevant insight into geophysical processes. Users of AGs participate in comparisons with a metrological reference in order to monitor the temporal stability of the instruments and determine the bias to that reference. However, since no measurement standard of higher-order accuracy currently exists, users of AGs participate in key comparisons led by the CIPM. These comparisons provide the reference values of highest accuracy compared to the calibration against a single AG. The construction of stationary, large scale atom interferometers paves the way towards a new measurement standard in absolute gravimetry used as a reference with a potential stability up to 1 nm/s$^2$ at 1 s integration time. At the Leibniz University Hannover, we are currently building such a very long baseline atom interferometer with a 10 m long interaction zone. The knowledge of local gravity and its gradient along and around the baseline is required to establish the instrument's uncertainty budget and enable transfers of gravimetric measurements to nearby devices for comparison and calibration purposes. We therefore established a control network for relative gravimeters and repeatedly measured its connections during the construction of the atom interferometer. We additionally developed a 3D model of the host building to investigate the self-attraction effect and studied the impact of mass changes due to groundwater hydrology on the gravity field around the reference instrument. The gravitational effect from the building 3D model is in excellent agreement with the latest gravimetric measurement campaign which opens the possibility to transfer gravity values with an uncertainty below the 10 nm/s$^2$ level.

S-matrix elements and off-shell tachyon action with non-abelian gauge symmetry

description: We propose that there is a unique expansion for the string theory S-matrix elements of tachyons that corresponds to non-abelian tachyon action. For those S-matrix elements which, in their expansion, there are the Feynman amplitudes resulting from the non-abelian kinetic term, we give a prescription on how to find the expansion. The gauge invariant action is an $α'$ expanded action, and the tachyon mass $m$ which appears as coefficient of many different couplings, is arbitrary. We then analyze in details the S-matrix element of four tachyons and the S-matrix element of two tachyons and two gauge fields, in both bosonic and superstring theories, in favor of this proposal. In the superstring theory, the leading terms of the non-abelian gauge invariant couplings are in agreement with the symmetrised trace of the direct non-abelian generalization of the tachyonic Born-Infeld action in which the tachyon potential is consistent with $V(T)=e^{πα' m^2T^2}$. In the bosonic theory, on the other hand, the leading terms are those appear in superstring case as well as some other gauge invariant couplings which spoils the symmetrised trace prescription. These latter terms are zero in the abelian case.

description: In this paper, we study the distributed computational capabilities of device-to-device (D2D) networks. A key characteristic of D2D networks is that their topologies are reconfigurable to cope with network demands. For distributed computing, resource management is challenging due to limited network and communication resources, leading to inter-channel interference. To overcome this, recent research has addressed the problems of wireless scheduling, subchannel allocation, power allocation, and multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) signal design, but has not considered them jointly. In this paper, unlike previous mobile edge computing (MEC) approaches, we propose a joint optimization of wireless MIMO signal design and network resource allocation to maximize energy efficiency. Given that the resulting problem is a non-convex mixed integer program (MIP) which is prohibitive to solve at scale, we decompose its solution into two parts: (i) a resource allocation subproblem, which optimizes the link selection and subchannel allocations, and (ii) MIMO signal design subproblem, which optimizes the transmit beamformer, transmit power, and receive combiner. Simulation results using wireless edge topologies show that our method yields substantial improvements in energy efficiency compared with cases of no offloading and partially optimized methods and that the efficiency scales well with the size of the network.

description: Buckingham expansion is important for understanding molecular multipoles and (hyper)polarizabilities. In this study, we give a complete derivation of Buckingham expansion in the traced form using successive Taylor series. Based on such derivation, a general Buckingham expansion in the traced form is proposed, and from which numerical calculations with finite field method of high accuracy can be achieved. The transformations from the traced multipoles and multipole-multipole polarizabilities to the corresponding traceless counterparts are realized with an auxiliary traced electric field gradient. The applications of the finite field method in this study show good agreements with previous theoretical calculations and experimental measurements.
NORTH AMERICAN TRIBAL ARTS AND CRAFTS: TOWARDS A NEW INTERPRETATION
Creators: name: Baker, Robert Charles
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: This study seeks (1) to identify and evaluate an interpretation of tribal arts and crafts; (2) to demonstrate tribal strategies in the production of arts and crafts; to use these data as a means for comparison of such strategies; (3) to obtain and manage an anthropological understanding of native arts and crafts and of projects designed to promote traditional native arts and crafts. The research project investigates the problem inherent in (1) comparisons of material objects (primarily art objects) from similar cultures and from differing cultures and (2) changes through time in relationships between objects and their producers. World-wide sampling was used to establish correlations between levels of sociocultural integration and changes in arts and crafts strategies. Sampling cultures throughout the United States, the project explores characteristics of contemporary North American Indian arts and crafts. The project establishes (1) a general basis of tribe vs. state for the interpretation of arts and crafts; (2) defines the dimensions of tribal arts and crafts; (3) demonstrates the development of tribal arts and crafts after modernization; and (4) predicts trends for the future, with specific recommendations for planning.
