description: Topological Physics relies on the specific structure of the eigenstates of Hamiltonians. Their geometry is encoded in the quantum geometric tensor containing both the celebrated Berry curvature, crucial for topological matter, and the quantum metric. The latter is at the heart of a growing number of physical phenomena such as superfluidity in flat bands, orbital magnetic susceptibility, exciton Lamb shift, and non-adiabatic corrections to the anomalous Hall effect. Here, we report the first direct measurement of both Berry curvature and quantum metric in a two-dimensional continuous medium. The studied platform is a planar microcavity of extremely high finesse, in the strong coupling regime. It hosts mixed exciton-photon modes (exciton-polaritons) subject to photonic spin-orbit-coupling which makes emerge Dirac cones and exciton Zeeman splitting breaking time-reversal symmetry. The monopolar and half-skyrmion pseudospin textures are measured by polarisation-resolved photoluminescence. The associated quantum geometry of the bands is straightforwardly extracted from these measurements. Our results unveil the intrinsic chirality of photonic modes which is at the basis of topological photonics. This technique can be extended to measure Bloch band geometries in artificial lattices. The use of exciton-polaritons (interacting photons) opens wide perspectives for future studies of quantum fluid physics in topological systems.

description: For the formation of a black hole in the gravitational collapse of a massless scalar field, we calculate a critical exponent that governs the black hole angular momentum for slightly non-spherical initial data near the black hole threshold. We calculate the scaling law by second-order perturbation theory. We then use the numerical results of a previous first-order perturbative analysis to obtain the numerical value mu ~ 0.76 for the angular momentum critical exponent. A quasi-periodic fine structure is superimposed on the overall power law.

description: The biotechnology-related market in Japan is expected to be worth as much as $100 billion by the year 2000. Rather than being an industry in and of itself, biotechnology will affect many economic sectors, and may soon become crucial for maintaining a competitive edge in those sectors. In the immediate term, biotechnology will affect industries such as pharmaceuticals, agriculture, and food processing; further on, and with far greater uncertainty, waste disposal, electronics, and materials. This report provides a preliminary analysis of Japan's industrial policies to promote biotechnology, one of the three technologies the Japanese government has identified as essential to Japan's future competitiveness. The government has introduced various mechanisms, both old-fashioned and experimental, to foster Japanese success in biotechnology. American firms and policy makers need to understand Japanese efforts in biotechnology, just as they have had to understand Japanese efforts in advanced electronics. An early start is well advised. Although Japan today may be second to the U.S. in biotechnology development, it is not a distant second. With both governmental long-term strategic policies and private firms' efforts to become more innovative, Japan may rapidly catch up to the U.S.

description: In this note we present a scaling theory for the elasticity of olympic gels, i.e., gels where the elasticity is a consequence of topology only. It is shown that two deformation regimes exist. The first is the non affine deformation regime where the free energy scales linear with the deformation. In the large (affine) deformation regime the free energy is shown to scale as $F \propto λ^{5/2}$ where $λ$ is the deformation ratio. Thus a highly non Hookian stress - strain relation is predicted.

description: This work studies the effects of a weak notion of symmetry on diffusively-coupled multi-agent systems. We focus on networks comprised of agents and controllers which are maximally equilibrium independent passive, and show that these converge to a clustered steady-state, with clusters corresponding to certain symmetries of the system. Namely, clusters are computed using the notion of the exchangeability graph. We then discuss homogeneous networks and the cluster synthesis problem, namely finding a graph and homogeneous controllers forcing the agents to cluster at prescribed values.

description: An erosion of manufacturing capacities has contributed substantially to America's trade problems. The difficulty lies not in U.S. machines and technology, but in U.S. strategies for automation and the goals American firms seek to achieve through production innovation. Mass production and administrative hierarchies created the basis for American industrial preeminence in the years after World War II. There is substantial evidence that American firms have been unable to adopt or adapt to the production innovations emerging abroad. A sustained weakness in manufacturing capabilities could endanger the technology base of the country.

The Nature of Projectile Point Types from the Denton Site, Mississippi
Creators: name: Lowe, Regina Marie
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2024

description: The Denton Site, a Middle Archaic occupation in Mississippi, provides a case to test the nature of projectile point types. Testing five Archaic point types from the site shows whether types are “natural” or arbitrary divisions on a spectrum of variation. Using a series of measurements on eighty-one projectile points of Denton, Kent, Gary, Opossum Bayou, and Pontchartrain types, I conduct principal components analysis to investigate variation among types. A second test of these types uses a pre-packaged Machine Learning program called Lobe.ai. Both methods show that the point types in this sample are a mix of types that can be identified “naturally” through metric analysis and types that are more arbitrary. The Denton type is natural while Opossum Bayou and Pontchartrain types are arbitrary. Kent and Gary types fall in the middle of the spectrum.

description: The cyanide radical CN is abundant in protoplanetary disks, with line fluxes often comparable to those of $^{13}$CO. It is known to be sensitive to UV irradiation of the upper disk atmosphere, with models predicting ring-shaped emission. We seek to characterize the CN emission from 94 Class II disks in the Lupus star forming region, compare it to observations in other regions, and interpret our observations with a grid of models. The CN emission morphology is discussed for two primordial disks, Sz 71 and Sz 98, and modeled in more detail. ALMA observed CN N=3-2 in Lupus disks down to sensitivities better than previous surveys. Models constructed with the physico-chemical code DALI are used to study the integrated fluxes of the disks and resolved emission of CN in disks without (dust) substructures. We find that CN N=3-2 is bright, and detected in 38% of sources, but its disk-integrated flux is not strongly correlated to either $^{13}$CO or continuum flux. Compared to pre-ALMA single-dish surveys, no significant difference in the CN flux distributions in Lupus and Taurus-Auriga is found, although $ρ$ Ophiuchus disks may be fainter on average. We find ring-shaped CN emission with peak radii of ~50 AU in two resolved disks. We conclude that a large fraction of sources is faint in CN; only exponential gas surface density cutoffs at $R_{c} \leq 15$ AU can reconcile observations with models. This is the first observational evidence of such a compact gas disk population in Lupus. Absolute intensities and the emission morphology of CN are reproduced by DALI models without the need for any continuum substructure; they are unrelated to the CO snowline location. These observations and the successful modeling of these rings provide a new probe of the structure and conditions in disks, and particularly their incident UV radiation field, if disk size is determined by the data.

description: Comprehensive understanding of the function of proteins requires knowledge about the structural and dynamics properties of these molecules, especially when they work as enzymes or interact with other proteins. In general, the key step for any process in life is a binding event. Either a substrate binds to an enzyme, a protein-ligand interaction, or two or more proteins form a complex involving protein-protein interactions, and in some cases, like for the GTP-hydrolyzing proteins investigated in this work, a protein-protein interaction, namely (homo-)dimerization, is required to form a functional enzyme and protein-protein and protein-ligand interactions influence each other. The results presented here have been obtained using site-directed spin labeled protein variants and EPR spectroscopy to obtain information about the structure and dynamics of five different G proteins that dimerize (Ras, MnmE, CtRoco, hLRRK2) or form larger oligomeric assemblies (hGBP1). The information about spin label side chain dynamics from cw EPR experiments and inter-spin distances mainly from pulsed EPR, specifically DEER, experiments obtained in these studies has been combined with other biophysical data and computational methods, foremost MD simulations, in an integrative approach. In integrative structural biology approaches, data from multiple methods is combined to obtain structural models and reveal information about the dynamic behavior of large and often complex macromolecular assemblies. The studies presented in this work all use integrative approaches to different extents to obtain insights into the structural and dynamic properties of different G proteins that form larger complexes by dimerization. The results obtained are discussed in the present context.

description: We propose a protocol using a tunable Xmon qubit chain to construct generalized Su-Schrieffer-Heeger (SSH) models that support various topological phases. We study the time evolution of a single-excitation quantum state in a SSH-type qubit chain and find that such dynamics is linked to topological winding number. We also investigate the adiabatic transfer of a single-excitation quantum state in a generalized SSH-type qubit chain and show that this process can be connected with topological Chern number and be used to generate a novel entanglement-dependent topological pumping. All results have been demonstrated to be robust against qubit coupling imperfections and can be observed in a short Xmon qubit chain. Our study provides a simple method to directly measure topological invariants rooted in momentum space using quantum dynamics in real space.

A Small Kingdom Accommodating Large State(s): The Formation of Qing-Ryukyu Relations (1644-1653)
Creators: name: Castro, Jason
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2024

description: This paper will explore how Ryukyu re-established diplomatic relations with the Qing Empire and analyze the external pressures that led to its defection. It will then scrutinize two critical incidents - the "1650 Embassies" and "Burial of former edict" - by examining Ryukyuan sources and cultural traditions. This paper argues that the Ryukyu court fabricated these two events as a diplomatic strategy in the context of Sino-Ryukyuan relations in the late-1640s and early-1650s.      Next, the paper will delve into Ryukyu's survival strategy and the challenges faced by this island kingdom. The study of Ryukyu's "fabricated documents" and its adaptable diplomatic strategy can shed light on how a commercial state navigated through the tumultuous early-to-mid-seventeenth century. Ryukyu's experience offers a fresh perspective on how tributary systems were redeveloped and sustained amidst external forces during this significant period in East Asian history.

description: Abstract 

Background: The nutritional status of children is a key indicator of community development and future potential. The early years of life are crucial for optimal growth and development, making the nutritional status of children under five particularly important. Nutritional deficiencies can lead to long-term physical growth and development issues, resulting in high levels of illness and disability in adulthood. High malnutrition prevalence also threatens future economic growth by reducing the intellectual and physical potential of the population.

Problem Statement: In Sub-Saharan Africa (SSA), poor physical growth is prevalent, with approximately 21.9% of children underweight and 40.1% stunted. Anemia is also widespread, with prevalence rates between 40–70%. Both growth restriction and anemia in early life increase the risk of mortality and morbidity and are linked to developmental and cognitive impairments.

Objective: This study aims to determine the nutritional status of children aged 6-59 months attending the maternal and child health clinic at Malable Health Center, Wanlaweyn district, Somalia.

Methods: A cross-sectional study design was employed. A researcher-administered semi-structured questionnaire collected socio-demographic information, feeding practices, and anthropometric data. Statistical analyses compared anthropometric measurements to WHO reference populations. SPSS version 25 analyzed epidemiological data to determine malnutrition indicators such as underweight, stunting, and wasting.

Results: The study found that 45% of mothers had no formal education, and most were not employed, with 58% being pastoralists and 42% business persons. Most households had more than two children and over five members. Nutritional assessments revealed 15% of children were wasted, 20% stunted, and 20% underweight, with higher malnutrition rates in the 24-59 months age group and among male children. Dietary patterns showed a preference for rice and pasta, with fruits being the least consumed due to cost and availability. While 75.9% of women were aware of exclusive breastfeeding, only 42% learned about it in the maternity ward, and 57% introduced complementary feeding early, often seeking advice from friends and relatives rather than healthcare providers.

description: A central aspect of the cosmological constant problem is to understand why vacuum energy does not gravitate. In order to account for this observation, while allowing for nontrivial dynamics of the quantum vacuum, we motivate a novel background independent theory of gravity. The theory is an extension of unimodular gravity that is described in geometric terms by means of a conformal (light-cone) structure and differential forms of degree one and two. We show that the subset of the classical field equations describing the dynamics of matter degrees of freedom and the conformal structure of spacetime are equivalent to that of unimodular gravity. The sector with vanishing matter fields and flat conformal structure is governed by the field equations of BF theory and contains topological invariants that are influenced by quantum vacuum fluctuations. Perturbative deviations from this sector lead to classical solutions that necessarily display relatively small values of the cosmological constant with respect to the would-be contribution of quantum vacuum fluctuations. This feature that goes beyond general relativity (and unimodular gravity) offers an interpretation of the smallness of the currently observed cosmological constant.

description: The Murphy operators in the Hecke algebra H_n of type A are explicit commuting elements whose sum generates the centre. They can be represented by simple tangles in the Homfly skein theory version of H_n. In this paper I present a single tangle which represents their sum, and which is obviously central. As a consequence it is possible to identify a natural basis for the Homfly skein of the annulus, C. Symmetric functions of the Murphy operators are also central in H_n. I define geometrically a homomorphism from C to the centre of each algebra H_n, and find an element in C, independent of n, whose image is the m-th power sum of the Murphy operators. Generating function techniques are used to describe images of other elements of C in terms of the Murphy operators, and to demonstrate relations among other natural skein elements.

description: By using CCSD(T) and EOM-CCSD methods together with quasirelativistic energy-consistent small-core pseudopotentials and large atom-centered basis sets as well as bond functions, the potential energy curves (PECs) for the ground state and several low-lying singlet excited states of the van der Waals molecular systems between cadmium atom interacting with RG atoms (RG = He, Ne, Ar, Kr, Xe and Rn) are obtained. The dispersion coefficients of ground state for Cd-RG have been computed. And the spectroscopic constants of the bound states of Cd-RG molecules have been calculated, the spectroscopic constants of ground state and C1Π state of Cd-RG complexes are in reasonable agreement with the available theoretical and experimental results; the vertical excitation energies of singlet low-lying excited states are also obtained. And the transition dipole moments (TDMs) of (3)1Σ+-X1Σ+ and (4)1Σ+-X1Σ+ transitions are discussed, which would be helpful to understand the transition properties of Cd-RG complex. Furthermore, frequencies of vibrational transitions, rotational constants, Franck-Condon factors (FCFs) of C1Π-X1Σ+ transition and oscillator strengths of Cd-RG have also been acquired. The present work would be of value to understand on the electronically excited states of Cd-RG molecule, especially the electronic structure and spectroscopic characteristics of the singlet excited states.

description: An isolated single vortex is considered within the framework of the quasiclassical theory. The local density of states around a vortex is calculated in a clean type II superconductor with an anisotropy. The anisotropy of a superconducting energy gap is crucial for bound states around a vortex. A characteristic structure of the local density of states, observed in the layered hexagonal superconductor 2H-NbSe2 by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), is well reproduced if one assumes an anisotropic s-wave gap in the hexagonal plane. The local density of states (or the bound states) around the vortex is interpreted in terms of quasiparticle trajectories to facilitate an understanding of the rich electronic structure observed in STM experiments. It is pointed out that further fine structures and extra peaks in the local density of states should be observed by STM.

We show that the cosmology of such branes is definitely different from standard cosmology and identify the reasons behind this difference. We give a new class of exact solutions with a constant five-dimensional radius and cosmologically evolving brane. We discuss various consequences.

description: This thesis relies on extended interviews with peace activists in The Gambia. I use a feminist methodology of bottom-top qualitative design to provide a detailed account of Gambian women's peace activism related to the United Nations Security Council Resolution 1325 (UNSCR 1325, 2000) and The Gambia National Action Plan (NAP, 2012). The UNSCR 1325 has attracted feminist debates: supportive voices applaud the focus of UNSCR 1325 on women as an instrumental framework for women activists (Cohn et al., 2010). Critics, however, question the effectiveness of the resolution in addressing women's concerns in war and security, arguing that the resolution’s portrayal of women as 'naturally more peaceful' than men is an essentialist view that obscures women's agency and contribution in conflicts (Chinkin and Charlesworth 2006; Hudson 2013). However, my study suggests that women peace activists in The Gambia harness this essentialist depiction and employ it strategically to promote women's agenda. Thus, I argue that Gambian women have embraced the essentialist representation of women as "victims of violence, who are peaceful by nature" as a strategic tool for their peace activism. My findings show that the NAP (2012) did not have a transformative impact on women’s life. I argue that Gambian women lag in representation and participation in decision-making positions and violence against women persists due to ineffective implementation of laws and lack of political will from the government. My findings illustrate that kabudu (nepotism) challenges the women activist’s efforts in implementing the UNSCR 1325. Gambian women activists demonstrate that security and peace can be achieved by employing traditional peace building methods like the oususu groups despite facing a double-edged sword from international donors’ lack of interest in funding unstructured and informal groups and initiatives. Thus, I argue that the local women activists operationalise the concept of peace and security beyond the classic understanding of peace and security.

description: We derive an exact expression for the two-point correlation function for quantum star graphs in the limit as the number of bonds tends to infinity. This turns out to be identical to the corresponding result for certain Seba billiards in the semiclassical limit. Reasons for this are discussed. The formula we derive is also shown to be equivalent to a series expansion for the form factor - the Fourier transform of the two-point correlation function - previously calculated using periodic orbit theory.

Crack growth in heterogeneous brittle solids : Intermittency, crackling and induced seismicity

description: Crack growth is the basic mechanism leading to the failure of brittle materials. Engineering addresses this problem within the framework of continuum mechanics, which links deterministically the crack motion to the applied loading. Such an idealization, however, fails in several situations and in particular cannot capture the highly erratic (earthquake-like) dynamics sometimes observed in slowly fracturing heterogeneous solids. Here, we examine this problem by means of innovative experiments of crack growth in artificial rocks of controlled microstructure. The dynamical events are analyzed at both global and local scales, from the time fluctuation of the spatially-averaged crack speed and the induced acoustic emission, respectively. Their statistics are characterized and compared with the predictions of a recent approach mapping fracture onset with the depinning of an elastic interface. Finally, the overall time-size organization of the events are characterized to shed light on the mechanisms underlying the scaling laws observed in seismology.

description: The temperature dependence of the energy relaxation of photoexcited (PE) carriers is used as a probe of the electronic structure of YBa_2Cu_3O_(7-d) in the insulating d~0.8 and metallic d~0.1 phases. The energy relaxation rate to phonons is obtained by measuring the non-equilibrium phonon occupation number, n_neq, with pulsed Raman Stokes/anti-Stokes spectroscopy using 1.5 and 70 ps long laser pulses. We can distinguish between relaxation via extended band states and localized states, since theoretically in the former, the relaxation is expected to be virtually T-independent, while in the latter it is strongly T-dependent. From the experiment - which shows strong temperature dependence of n_neq - we deduce that at least part of the PE carrier relaxation proceeds via hopping between localized states and we propose a simple theoretical model of the relaxation process. In addition, we compare the coupling of different vibrational modes to the carriers to find that the apical O vibrational mode is significantly more involved in the energy relaxation process that the in-plane 340 cm^(-1}) mode. This implies that the localized states are mainly (but not entirely) coupled to out-of plane vibrations.

description: Spatial correlations play an important role in characterizing material properties related to non-local effects. Inter alia, they can give rise to fluctuation-induced forces. Equilibrium correlations in fluids provide an extensively studied paradigmatic case, in which their range is typically bounded by the correlation length. Out of equilibrium, conservation laws have been found to extend correlations beyond this length, leading, instead, to algebraic decays. In this context, here we present a systematic study of the correlations and forces in fluids driven out of equilibrium simultaneously by quenching and shearing, both for non-conserved as well as for conserved Langevin-type dynamics. We identify which aspects of the correlations are due to shear, due to quenching, and due to simultaneously applying both, and how these properties depend on the correlation length of the system and its compressibility. Both shearing and quenching lead to long-ranged correlations, which, however, differ in their nature as well as in their prefactors, and which are mixed up by applying both perturbations. These correlations are employed to compute non-equilibrium fluctuation-induced forces in the presence of shear, with or without quenching, thereby generalizing the framework set out by Dean and Gopinathan. These forces can be stronger or weaker compared to their counterparts in unsheared systems. In general, they do not point along the axis connecting the centers of the small inclusions considered to be embedded in the fluctuating medium. Since quenches or shearing appear to be realizable in a variety of systems with conserved particle number, including active matter, we expect these findings to be relevant for experimental investigations.

description: The phenomena of subdiffusion are widely observed in physical and biological systems. To investigate the effects of external potentials, say, harmonic potential, linear potential, and time dependent force, we study the subdiffusion described by subordinated Langevin equation with white Gaussian noise, or equivalently, by the single Langevin equation with compound noise. If the force acts on the subordinated process, it keeps working all the time; otherwise, the force just exerts an influence on the system at the moments of jump. Some common statistical quantities, such as, the ensemble and time averaged mean squared displacement, position autocorrelation function, correlation coefficient, generalized Einstein relation, are discussed to distinguish the effects of various forces and different patterns of acting. The corresponding Fokker-Planck equations are also presented. All the stochastic processes discussed here are non-stationary, non-ergodicity, and aging.

description: We present new multi-broadband transit photometry of HD 189733b obtained at the Wyoming Infrared Observatory. Using an ensemble of five-band Sloan filter observations across multiple transits we have created an "ultra-low" resolution transmission spectrum to discern the nature of the exoplanet atmosphere. The observations were taken over three transit events and total 108 u', 120 g', 120 r', 110 i', and 116 z' images with an average exposure cadence of seven minutes for an entire series. The analysis was performed with a Markov-Chain Monte-Carlo method assisted by a Gaussian processes regression model. We find the apparent planet radius to increase from 0.154 +0.000920-0.00096 R* at z'-band to 0.157 +0.00074-0.00078 R* at u'-band. Whether this apparent radius implies an enhanced Rayleigh scattering or clear or grey planet atmosphere is highly dependent on stellar spot modeling assumptions, but our results are consistent with the literature for HD 189733b. This set of observations demonstrates the ability of our 2.3-m ground-based observatory to measure atmospheres of large exoplanets.

description: We investigate the impact of the domain shape on wave propagation in excitable media. Channelled domains with sinusoidal boundaries are considered. Trains of fronts generated periodically at an extreme of the channel are found to adopt a quasiperiodic spatial configuration stroboscopically frozen in time. The phenomenon is studied in a model for the photo-sensitive Belousov-Zabotinsky reaction, but we give a theoretical derivation of the spatial return maps prescribing the height and position of the successive fronts that is valid for arbitrary excitable reaction-diffusion systems.
