In North Carolina and across the country, climate change has led to warmer average temperatures. Periods of extreme heat, an increasingly common weather event in North Carolina, can result in heat-related illness, including heat exhaustion, heat stroke and even death. Heat-related illness puts health at risk, especially among low- income populations, adds to healthcare expenditures, strains resources and decreases productivity. In this paper, we define the problem, evaluate different policy solutions, determine the most effective policy solution and propose a three-year budget. We found that the most impactful, cost-effective and equitable policy solution is to ban utility companies in North Carolina from disconnecting residents' power for nonpayment May-September, or in a period of extreme heat. The policy will be evaluated by tracking the number of households that retain power during summer months, calculating the change in heat-related ED visits over time, and holding focus groups.

Interaction of Relativistic Bosons with Localized Sources on Riemannian Surfaces

description: We study the interaction of mutually non-interacting Klein-Gordon particles with localized sources on stochastically complete Riemannian surfaces. This asymptotically free theory requires regularization and coupling constant renormalization. Renormalization is performed non-perturbatively using the orthofermion algebra technique and the principal operator $Φ$ is found. The principal operator is then used to obtain the bound state spectrum, in terms of binding energies to single Dirac-delta function centers. The heat kernel method allows us to generalize this procedure to compact and Cartan-Hadamard type Riemannian manifolds. We make use of upper and lower bounds on the heat kernel to constrain the ground state energy from below thus confirming that our neglect of pair creation is justified for certain ranges of parameters in the problem.

The Quasar SDSS J153636.22+044127.0: A Double-Peaked Emitter in a Candidate Binary Black-Hole System

description: Double-peaked emission lines are believed to be originated from accretion disks around supermassive black holes (SMBHs), and about 3% of z<0.33 AGNs are found to be double-peaked emitters. The quasar SDSS J153636.22+044127.0 has recently been identified with peculiar broad-line emission systems exhibiting multiple redshifts. We decompose the H$α$ and H$β$ profiles into a circular Keplerian disk line component and other Gaussian components. We propose that the system is both a double-peaked emitter and a binary SMBH system, where the extra-flux in the blue peaks of the broad lines comes from the region around the secondary black hole. We suggest that such black hole binary systems might also exist in many known double-peaked emitters, where the tidal torques from the secondary black hole clear the outer region of the disk around the primary black hole, similar to the gap in a protostellar disk due to the process of planetary migration, and might also stimulate the formation of a vertical extended source in the inner region around the primary which illuminates the disk. However, most secondary SMBHs in such systems might be too small to maintain a detectable broad line region (BLR), so that the disk line from the primary dominates.

description: Perlinella drymo. Forty-seven and 37 signals were obtained from one, 1-day old male and female, respectively, at 24°C and 70 FTC. The male and female produced 2-way duets (N=36) and a new 3-way exchange (N=1), consisting of a male call, female answer, and male response following the answer. Previously, Zeigler and Stewart (1977) reported this species with only a 2-way vibrational communication. Males consistently called with 3beat signals containing a long 1 st interval (92.3 ± 1.4 ms) and a short 2 nd interval (26.9 ± 3.2 ms) (Fig. 7, Tables 3–4). The female answer was a single beat and followed the last male call beat by 138.0 ± 5.1 ms. The male response signal followed the female answer (♀ - ♂ exchange interval) by 181.9 ms and contained 10 beats with intervals of 28.3 ± 2.3 ms.

description: We present general, analytic methods for Cosmological likelihood analysis and solve the "many-parameters" problem in Cosmology. Maxima are found by Newton's Method, while marginalization over nuisance parameters, and parameter errors and covariances are estimated by analytic marginalization of an arbitrary likelihood function with flat or Gaussian priors. We show that information about remaining parameters is preserved by marginalization. Marginalizing over all parameters, we find an analytic expression for the Bayesian evidence for model selection. We apply these methods to data described by Gaussian likelihoods with parameters in the mean and covariance. This method can speed up conventional likelihood analysis by orders of magnitude when combined with Monte-Carlo Markov Chain methods, while Bayesian model selection becomes effectively instantaneous.

description: Macquarie Island is a small subantarctic island situated 1130 km south-south east of Tasmania. It is isolated from any land mass and experiences harsh climatic conditions.
Ten palaeolake sites are known from Macquarie Island. Five were studied in detail to provide information on the Late Quaternary climates of the region, employing diatoms (Bacillariophyta) as the main interpretive tool. To this end, the diatom associations from several modem habitats were examined and catalogued. The five palaeolake sites were located in the north west of the island. They are Palaeolake Half Moon, Palaeolake Cascade, Palaeolake Eagle, Palaeolake Emerald and Palaeolake Cormorant. The modem habitats examined were creeks, mires, soil, feldmark, lichen and nutrient rich areas. A companion study of modem lakes is currently in progress. Eleven major diatom associations were identified from the terrestrial, mire and palaeolake samples.
One hundred and eighty one taxa of diatoms were identified from the modem and fossil samples. The majority of the species found were cosmopolitan, with approximately 10% found only in the subantarctic and/or the Antarctic.
The palaeolake sediments were dated at between 12 900 RC y BP and 3580 RC y BP. Three of the palaeolakes exhibited little change in diatom associations or in sediments over time. These have been interpreted as deep, oligotrophic lakes similar to some modem lakes on the island today. Two of the palaeolakes showed major changes in both sediments and diatom associations. These changes have been interpreted as reflecting a change in the climate of Macquarie Island, with a drier period between 5000 and 3500 y BP.
A hybrid cubic-tetrahedral voxel modeling method for enhanced computational efficiency
Creators: name: Peng, Xuze
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: This thesis presents a novel voxel representation that employs tetrahedron as its basic voxel elements. The modeling method is intended to achieve high computational efficiency while maintaining reasonable modeling accuracy. The modeling method is developed on the basis of the traditional cubic voxel by dividing it into 40 tetrahedrons to provide sub-voxel accuracy. Thus, to achieve a desired level of accuracy, the modeling method requires a low resolution. To enhance its modeling efficiency, a tetrahedron-based lookup table is derived to cover all the possible tetrahedral decomposition shapes in a cubic voxel. The use of a lookup table avoids complicated geometric calculations, resulting in a fast modeling process. Furthermore, each voxel is assigned a signed distance field and a control scheme that allows morphing of the tetrahedron shapes into the target input model, which leads to a higher level of accuracy. Various legacy geometry models are tested with the developed tetrahedron-based voxel model. Acquired modeling times are compared with the traditional cubic voxel multi-level method. As both modeling methods achieve similar levels of accuracy, the tetrahedron-based method shows an up to four times improvement in modeling time. This level of computational efficiency obtained makes it a suitable candidate for modeling scenarios involving frequent model updates.

Supersymmetric Yang-Mills and Supergravity Amplitudes at One Loop

description: By applying the known expressions for SYM and SUGRA tree amplitudes, we write generating functions for the NNMHV box coefficients of SYM as well as the MHV, NMHV, and NNMHV box coefficients for SUGRA. The all-multiplicity generating functions utilize covariant, on-shell superspace whereby the contribution from arbitrary external states in the supermultiplet can be extracted by Grassmann operators. In support of the relation between dual Wilson loops and SYM scattering amplitudes at weak coupling, the SYM amplitudes are presented in a manifestly dual superconformal form. We introduce ordered box coefficients for calculating SUGRA quadruple cuts and prove that ordered coefficients generate physical cut amplitudes after summing over permutations of the external legs. The ordered box coefficients are produced by sewing ordered subamplitudes, previously used in applying on-shell recursion relations at tree level. We describe our verification of the results against the literature, and a formula for extracting the contributions from external gluons or gravitons to NNMHV superamplitudes is presented.

Embryo Disposition, Divorce & Family Law Contracting: A Model for Enforceability
Creators: name: Forman, Deborah L.
Publisher: name: Columbia Journal of Gender and Law
Year: 2013

description: Courts, legislatures, and scholars have struggled with how to resolve disputes between progenitors of cryopreserved embryos in the event of divorce. This Article considers whether contracts entered into by the couple regarding disposition prior to divorce should be enforced and, if so, under what circumstances. The Article answers this question by taking a multidisciplinary perspective, incorporating insights from the social science literature, and by situating embryo disposition contracts in the broader context of other family law contracts, including donor, surrogate, co-parenting, premarital and postmarital contracts, with special consideration of the gender issues embedded in these approaches. The Article argues that existing treatment of these various family law contracts lends ample support for finding embryo disposition contracts enforceable, but also demands that embryo disposition contracts satisfy certain procedural protections to ensure careful consideration and thorough understanding of the complexities of the issue by the parties.

description: Isoperla quinquepunctata. One hundred seven and seventy-eight signals were obtained from one, 1-day old male and female respectively, at 21°C and normal incandescent lighting. The male and female produced long signals or “symphonies” (Szczytko and Stewart 1979) of repeating 2-way sequences (Range: 2–9), with either the typical female single answer beat following the call (N=69) (Fig. 12A), or with her answer beat(s) interspersed within the 1 st, 3 rd, 4 th, 6 th, 8 th, 11 th, 13 th or 15 th (N=2) male interval (Fig. 12B, first underlined duet). The male called with signals of 7 mode beats; with intervals of 173.6 ± 11.4 ms (Table 3). The average individual call intervals gradually decreased from 179.9 ms (i1) to 171.0 ms (i6), remained fairly uniform until (i15), then increased to 190.8 ms (i20) (Table 4). Mode and mean beats per female signal were 1 and 1.0 ± 0.2; mean beat interval was 924.5 ± 254.0. The ♂ - ♀ exchange interval was 98.0 ± 5.2 ms for sequenced and overlapped duets. In our analyses, we treated the multiple 2-way sequences and overlapped duets individually, instead of the entire “symphony” (underlined duets, Figs. 12A–B). These duets were separated from one another by consistently longer intervals (279.5 ± 62.4 ms) than typical interbeat call intervals (173.6 ± 11.4 ms). These results are consistent with Szczytko and Stewart (1979) in terms of general signal description and beats, but differ considerably in beat intervals (Table 5). We propose that our consistently larger overall-mean-interval differences were due to the inconsistencies between their oscilloscope calibration and our computer, explained above under I. phalerata.

description: We have investigated the doping and temperature dependences of the pseudogap/superconducting gap in the single-layer cuprate La$_{2-x}$Sr$_x$CuO$_4$ by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. The results clearly exhibit two distinct energy and temperature scales, namely, the gap around ($π$,0) of magnitude $Δ^*$ and the gap around the node characterized by the d-wave order parameter $Δ_0$, like the double-layer cuprate Bi2212. In comparison with Bi2212 having higher $T_c$'s, $Δ_0$ is smaller, while $Δ^*$ and $T^*$ are similar. This result suggests that $Δ^*$ and $T^*$ are approximately material-independent properties of a single CuO$_2$ plane, in contrast the material-dependent $Δ_0$, representing the pairing strength.

Particle Clumping and Planetesimal Formation Depend Strongly on Metallicity

description: We present three-dimensional numerical simulations of particle clumping and planetesimal formation in protoplanetary disks with varying amounts of solid material. As centimeter-size pebbles settle to the mid-plane, turbulence develops through vertical shearing and streaming instabilities. We find that when the pebble-to-gas column density ratio is 0.01, corresponding roughly to solar metallicity, clumping is weak, so the pebble density rarely exceeds the gas density. Doubling the column density ratio leads to a dramatic increase in clumping, with characteristic particle densities more than ten times the gas density and maximum densities reaching several thousand times the gas density. This is consistent with unstratified simulations of the streaming instability that show strong clumping in particle dominated flows. The clumps readily contract gravitationally into interacting planetesimals of order 100 km in radius. Our results suggest that the correlation between host star metallicity and exoplanets may reflect the early stages of planet formation. We further speculate that initially low metallicity disks can be particle enriched during the gas dispersal phase, leading to a late burst of planetesimal formation.

description: Pteronarcys dorsata. Fifty-one and six signals were obtained from one, 2–3-day old male and female, respectively, at 24°C and 65 FTC. The male and female of this species produced 2-way sequenced signals with either the female answer following the call (N=13), or with the answer beats interspersed within the call, beginning during the male’s 4 th (N=3), 5 th (N= 13) and 6 th (N=6) interval. The male called with signals of 6 mode beats; with intervals of 251.9 ± 9.6 ms (Fig. 13, Table 3). His average individual intervals gradually decreased from 258.3 ms (i1) to 241.6 ms (i6), the last interval increased to 245.6 ms (N=2) (Table 4). Mode and mean beats per female signal were 5 and 4.9 ± 0.8; with intervals of 359.7 ± 45.9 ms. The ♂ - ♀ exchange interval was 141.1 ± 85.5 ms for sequenced and overlapped duets. The results here coincide well with those of Stewart et al. (1982), with slight differences probably attributed to variation in environmental inputs rather than a new dialect. We add the interspersed female answer signal to the description of this species signaling.

Men at Work, Fathers at Home: Uncovering the Masculine Face of Caregiver Discrimination
Creators: name: Cunningham-Parmeter, Keith

Year: 2013

description: Despite their many workplace advances, women remain constrained by an enduring social expectation that they will manage their families’ domestic lives. Women will not achieve full workplace equality until men do more at home, and men will not enter the domestic sphere if they face employment retaliation for doing so. Men at Work, Fathers at Home addresses this problem by critically evaluating the legal challenges that fathers and other male caregivers face in proving claims of workplace discrimination. Drawing from Supreme Court precedent and gender theory, the Article explains how masculine norms deter men from asserting their caregiving needs at work, while undermining their ability to prosecute discrimination claims in court. By examining how these men can combat biases against male caregiving, the Article seeks to advance the goal of gender equality for both sexes.

Sexuality’s Law

description: The contemporary history of gay sexuality–the full history–has not been written. Within it, increasingly attested to in various ways, appears an ideology of sexual freedom that has played a significant role in shaping, conditioning, controlling, and defining the sweep of gay sexuality, identity, and social life. This Article describes the ideology of sexual freedom, including its valorization of sexual violence, abuse, and injury, up to and including death, traces the ideology’s implications for HIV/AIDS, and documents its actual operation in theorizing about sexuality by and among gay men in the “high” years of the epidemic. After that, it examines some ways in which the ideology of sexual freedom has shaped some more recent debates about same-sex sex and its proper relation to law, proposing that in a number of ways this ideology has been sexuality’s “tougher and truer law,” more important than the formal legal rules promulgated and enforced by the political State. In consequence, it is suggested, efforts to understand and address same-sex sexual violence and its consequences both for individuals and society, more generally, need to grapple with the ideology of sexual freedom directly–and not ignore it–if there is to be any realistic hope for the liberal State to satisfy its obligations to protect private individuals against interpersonal harms.

description: Taking into account the coupling between the position of the wall and an internal degree of freedom, namely its phase $ϕ$, we examine, in the rigid wall approximation, the dynamics of a magnetic domain wall subject to a weak pinning potential. We determine the corresponding force-velocity characteristics, which display several unusual features when compared to standard depinning laws. At zero temperature, there exists a bistable regime for low forces, with a logarithmic behavior close to the transition. For weak pinning, there occurs a succession of bistable transitions corresponding to different topological modes of the phase evolution. At finite temperature, the force-velocity characteristics become non-monotonous. We compare our results to recent experiments on permalloy nanowires.

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: I Died as a Mineral is an exhibition and a written thesis that explores the connection between humans and the natural environment. It presents a series of paintings and a digital animation. The thesis begins as a cross-cultural investigation of the environmental calamities during my journey from Lahore, Pakistan, to Kelowna, Canada. The experience of living through smog, pollution and floods in Lahore parallel the similar consequences faced in the Okanagan Valley. These experiences prompt an exploration into these natural calamities as a result of our disconnection with nature. The study delves into cross-cultural concepts of interconnection and interdependence, acknowledging and honouring the traditional, ancestral, and unceded tmxʷúlaʔxʷ (land) of the Syilx Okanagan people who have inhabited this region since time immemorial. This acknowledgement provides a foundation for creative production, highlighting the interconnectedness of our world. The painting methodology used in this creative research fosters a profound connection with natural forms and the natural environment through creative transformation. Natural materials are used to craft art materials like paper, paintbrushes and paints. Incorporating handmade paints created from Indigenous knowledge of pigments and paint-making becomes an integral aspect of the artistic process. The painting process combines different painting styles, controlled and meticulous rendering with spontaneous gestures and various textures. The boundaries of traditional painting expand as the artwork transcends the confines of paper into the digital realm. The creative journey opens doors to a deeper understanding, sensitivity, and a profound connection with the natural environment. It serves as a testament to the intrinsic interconnectedness of all living things, highlighting the importance of our responsibility in nurturing and preserving our planet.

The origin of failed subhaloes and the common mass scale of the Milky Way satellite galaxies

description: We study the formation histories and present-day structure of satellite galaxies formed in a high resolution hydrodynamic simulation of a Milky Way-like galaxy. The simulated satellites span nearly 4 orders of magnitude in luminosity but have a very similar mass within their inner 600 pc, ~ 3 10^7 M_solar, with very little scatter. This result is in agreement with the recent measurements for dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) in the Milky Way by Strigari et al. In our simulations a preferred mass scale arises naturally from the effects of the early reionisation of gas. These impose a sharp threshold of ~ 12 km/s on the circular velocity of haloes which can cool gas and make stars. At the present day, subhaloes that host satellites as luminous as the classical Milky Way dwarfs (L_V > 2.6 10^5 L_solar), have typically grown to have circular velocities of $> 20 km/s. There are, however, subhaloes with similar circular velocities today which were, nevertheless, below threshold at reionisation and thus remain dark. Star formation in above-threshold haloes is truncated when the halo is accreted into the main galaxy progenitor. Thus, many properties of today's dwarf satellites such as their luminosity and star formation rate are set by their accretion time.

The Difference a Justice May Make: Remarks at the Symposium for Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Publisher: name: Columbia Journal of Gender and Law

description: What have courts done to women? What can courts do for women? And what does it mean to do something for women without being paternalistic, or, eventually, maternalistic, which may be just as bad? These are questions Justice Ginsburg provided to inspire this symposium. Before I address them directly, we need to tackle some remarks on widespread assumptions that govern expectations around here, namely, expectations of, or attributions to, women on the bench. The key question is, then: What is it that makes a difference, regarding an individual justice or judge, at a court? In the German Federal Constitutional Court, there are two women in the First Senate, out of five female justices on the Court as a whole, who work with eleven men. Does this make a difference? What happened when one woman worked with seven men in one Senate, sometimes mocked as Snow White with the seven dwarfs, a rather discomforting comment for the men? Many believe biology matters, with more or less explicit reference to assumptions about femininity. What exactly is “this” that may indeed differ – the being female, being feminine, being male, or the masculinity of courts? Digging deeper, one may also want to ask whether this is too narrow a question.

description: A surface M is called p-minimal if one of the coordinate functions is p-harmonic in the inner metric. We show that in the twodimensional case the Gaussian map of such surfaces is quasiconformal. In the case when the surface is a tube we study the geometrical structure of such surfaces. In particularly, we establish the second order differential inequality for the form of the sections of M which generalizes the known ones in the minimal surfaces theory.
Augmentation of cognitive control with theta burst stimulation of the right ventrolateral prefrontal cortex : first steps towards a novel therapeutic approach to improve bipolar disorder outcome
Creators: name: Robin Luciani, Karling
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Background: Bipolar disorder (BD) affects more than 1% of the population and causes deficits in response inhibition. Response inhibition involves three sub-components (interference inhibition, action withholding, and action cancellation), that can be assessed together in the Hybrid Response Inhibition (HRI) task. The right Inferior Frontal Gyrus (rIFG) is a potential target for augmentation of response inhibition. Current investigations of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) in BD remain limited. This proof-of-concept study will explore rTMS of the rIFG and its effect on response inhibition using the HRI task in BD and controls. Methods: Within individuals with BD (n = 12) and a sex / age-matched control group (n = 12), we investigated the HRI performance scores associated with the three sub-components of response inhibition immediately before and after intermittent TMS (iTMS) and continuous TMS (cTMS) to either increase or decrease cortical excitability of the rIFG, respectively. Results: The response inhibition sub-component ‘action withholding’ was significantly improved in the HRI task following iTMS for the BD group. While there were no other significant effects observed in the results, noticeable trends may imply that there may be other effects of TMS on response inhibition in BD that differs from controls. Conclusions: Overall, this exploratory study successfully provided an initial evaluation of the effects of TMS on response inhibition in BD, showing trends and patterns that demonstrate the potential effectiveness of this novel intervention. Our study provides insights for further development and research of TMS over the rIFG in BD.

description: Green loans are not only a new business opportunity but also an important financial tool to promote green consumption. We study the optimal pricing decision of the manufacturer and the lending rate decision of the bank considering the heterogeneous environmental preferences of consumers. It is demonstrated that whether to offer green loan concessions depends on cut-offs with respect to the cost of nongreen products and the green preferences of environmental consumers. Our results indicate that green loan concessions that meet particular conditions can be more profitable for both banks and manufacturers. Consumer surplus and total social welfare can also be improved simultaneously. This finding explains why green loans can be advocated and implemented. Compared to scenarios involving strong green preferences, green loans are more applicable in scenarios with weak green preferences. From the opposite perspective, we can conclude that withdrawal conditions exist for interest rate concessions. Managerial insights are presented, and theoretical viewpoints are confirmed by taking China’s new energy vehicle subsidy declining policy as an example.

description: The energy consumption loss is high particularly in manufacturing processes involving heating furnaces. Moreover, the mandatory constraints in continuous heating stage bring difficult challenges to production scheduling. To improve the production efficiency and reduce the energy consumption in a hybrid flow shop with continuous and discrete processing stages, this study developed an adaptive selection multi-objective optimization algorithm with preference (ASMOAP). The mandatory constraints of continuous processing stage are transformed into one of the optimization objectives, which is defined as maximum excess value of adjustment time in this paper. A multi-objective optimization scheduling model with the makespan, energy consumption, and maximum excess of adjustment time is established. The optimization preference is designed in the proposed multi-objective optimization algorithm. The maximum excess of adjustment time is set as the multi-objective optimization preference. Three adaptive selection strategies are designed for the algorithm based on the proportions of outstanding and preference individuals to eliminate constraint conflicts. Presented results prove that the proposed algorithm could effectively solve hybrid flow shop scheduling problem considering discrete and continuous processing stages with limited time. It can be applied to obtain a better feasible solution while improving the efficiency and reducing the energy consumed in practical production processes.
Continuum Superpartners

description: In an exact conformal theory there is no particle. The excitations have continuum spectra and are called "unparticles" by Georgi. We consider supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model with approximate conformal sectors. The conformal symmetry is softly broken in the infrared which generates a gap. However, the spectrum can still have a continuum above the gap if there is no confinement. Using the AdS/CFT correspondence this can be achieved with a soft wall in the warped extra dimension. When supersymmetry is broken the superpartners of the Standard Model particles may simply be a continuum above gap. The collider signals can be quite different from the standard supersymmetric scenarios and the experimental searches for the continuum superpartners can be very challenging.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s Equal Protection Clause: 1970-80
Creators: name: Williams, Wendy W.
Publisher: name: Columbia Journal of Gender and Law
Year: 2012

description: Professor Ruth Bader Ginsburg of Columbia Law School was the leading Supreme Court litigator for gender equality in the crucial decade, 1970-80. In addition to teaching her classes, producing academic articles, and co-authoring the first casebook on sex discrimination and the law, she worked on some sixty cases (depending on how one counts), including over two dozen cases in the Supreme Court. Rumor has it she did not sleep for ten years; her prodigious output gives the rumor some credence.’ Her impact on the law during that critical decade earned her the title “the Thurgood Marshall of the women’s movement” and secured her place in history-even before she became a federal appellate judge and Supreme Court justice. I will devote my allotted space to two, intimately intertwined, topics: first, Ruth Ginsburg and the Supreme Court’s standard of review in sex discrimination cases, and second, the substance of Ruth Ginsburg’s concept of gender equality in law.
