description: The goal of this study is to reconstruct the evolution and the dust formation processes during the final AGB phases of a sample of carbon-rich, post-AGB Galactic stars, with particular attention to the determination of the past mass-loss history. We study the IR excess of sources classified as single stars by means of dust formation modelling where dust grains form and grow in a static wind and expand from the surface of the star. The method is applied to various evolutionary stages of the final AGB phase of stars with different masses and metallicities. The detailed analysis of the SED of the sources investigated, which included the derivation of the luminosities and the dust properties, is used to infer information on mass loss, efficiency of dust formation, and wind dynamics. We confirm previous results that most of the investigated sources descend from low-mass(M<1.5Msun) progenitors that reached the C-star stage. Metal-poor carbon stars are characterised by higher IR excesses with respect to their more metal-rich counterparts of similar luminosity due to a higher surface carbon-to-oxygen excess. This work confirms previous conclusions that more luminous stars descending from higher-mass progenitors are generally more opaque due to shorter evolutionary timescales that place the dust shell closer to the central object. We also find that the mass-loss rate at the tip of the AGB phase of metal-rich low-mass carbon stars is approximately 1-1.5x10^-5Msun/yr, whereas in the metal-poor domain M~4-5x10^-5Msun/yr is required. These results indicate the need for an upwards revision of the theoretical mass-loss rates of low-mass carbon stars in the available literature, which in turn require a revised determination of carbon dust yields by AGB stars.

description: We propose a spontaneous A4 flavor symmetry breaking scheme implemented in a warped extra dimensional setup to explain the observed pattern of quark and lepton masses and mixings. The main advantages of this choice are the explanation of fermion mass hierarchies by wave function overlaps, the emergence of tribimaximal neutrino mixing and zero quark mixing at the leading order and the absence of tree-level gauge mediated flavor violations. Quark mixing is induced by the presence of bulk flavons, which allow for cross-brane interactions and a cross-talk between the quark and neutrino sectors, realizing the spontaneous symmetry breaking pattern A4 --> nothing first proposed in [X.G.\,He, Y.Y.\,Keum, R.R.\,Volkas, JHEP{0604}, 039 (2006)]. We show that the observed quark mixing pattern can be explained in a rather economical way, including the CP violating phase, with leading order cross-interactions, while the observed difference between the smallest CKM entries V_{ub} and V_{td} must arise from higher order corrections. We briefly discuss bounds on the Kaluza-Klein scale implied by flavor changing neutral current processes in our model and show that the residual little CP problem is milder than in flavor anarchic models.

Constraints on star-formation driven galaxy winds from the mass-metallicity relation at z=0

description: We extend a chemical evolution model relating galaxy stellar mass and gas-phase oxygen abundance (the mass-metallicity relation) to explicitly consider the mass-dependence of galaxy gas fractions and outflows. Using empirically derived scalings of galaxy mass with halo virial velocity in conjunction with the most recent observations of z~0 total galaxy cold gas fractions and the mass-metallicity relation, we place stringent global constraints on the magnitude and scaling of the efficiency with which star forming galaxies expel metals. We demonstrate that under the assumptions that metal accretion is negligible and the stellar initial mass function does not vary, efficient outflows are required to reproduce the mass-metallicity relation; without winds, gas-to-stellar mass ratios >~ 0.3 dex higher than observed are needed. Moreover, z=0 gas fractions are low enough that while they have some effect on the magnitude of outflows required, the slope of the gas fraction--stellar mass relation does not strongly affect our conclusions on how the wind efficiencies must scale with galaxy mass. Despite systematic uncertainties in the normalization and slope of the mass-metallicity relation, we show that the metal expulsion efficiency zetaw=(Zw/Zg)etaw (where Zw is the wind metallicitiy and Zg is the interstellar medium metallicity) must be both high and scale steeply with mass. Specifically, we show that zetaw >> 1 and zetaw proportional to vvir^-3 or steeper. In contrast, momentum- or energy-driven outflow models suggest that etaw should scale as vvir^-1 or vvir^-2, respectively, implying that the Zw-Mstar relation should be shallower than the Zg-Mstar relation.

description: We have introduced self-consistent spin, tidal and dynamical equations of motion into REBOUNDx, a library of additional effects for the popular N-body integrator REBOUND. The equations of motion used are derived from the constant time lag approximation to the equilibrium tide model of tidal friction. These effects will allow the study of a variety of systems where the full dynamical picture cannot be encapsulated by point particle dynamics. We provide several test cases and benchmark the code's performance against analytic predictions. The open-source code is available in the most recent release of REBOUNDx.

description: We extend the program initiated in [T. Werlang et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 105, 095702 (2010)] in several directions. Firstly, we investigate how useful quantum correlations, such as entanglement and quantum discord, are in the detection of critical points of quantum phase transitions when the system is at finite temperatures. For that purpose we study several thermalized spin models in the thermodynamic limit, namely, the XXZ model, the XY model, and the Ising model, all of which with an external magnetic field. We compare the ability of quantum discord, entanglement, and some thermodynamic quantities to spotlight the quantum critical points for several different temperatures. Secondly, for some models we go beyond nearest-neighbors and also study the behavior of entanglement and quantum discord for second nearest-neighbors around the critical point at finite temperature. Finally, we furnish a more quantitative description of how good all these quantities are in spotlighting critical points of quantum phase transitions at finite T, bridging the gap between experimental data and those theoretical descriptions solely based on the unattainable absolute zero assumption.

description: Mergers play a complex role in galaxy formation and evolution. Continuing to improve our understanding of these systems require ever larger samples, which can be difficult (even impossible) to select from individual surveys. We use the new platform ESA Datalabs to assemble a catalogue of interacting galaxies from the Hubble Space Telescope science archives; this catalogue is larger than previously published catalogues by nearly an order of magnitude. In particular, we apply the Zoobot convolutional neural network directly to the entire public archive of HST $F814W$ images and make probabilistic interaction predictions for 126 million sources from the Hubble Source Catalogue. We employ a combination of automated visual representation and visual analysis to identify a clean sample of 21,926 interacting galaxy systems, mostly with $z < 1$. Sixty five percent of these systems have no previous references in either the NASA Extragalactic Database or Simbad. In the process of removing contamination, we also discover many other objects of interest, such as gravitational lenses, edge-on protoplanetary disks, and `backlit' overlapping galaxies. We briefly investigate the basic properties of this sample, and we make our catalogue publicly available for use by the community. In addition to providing a new catalogue of scientifically interesting objects imaged by HST, this work also demonstrates the power of the ESA Datalabs tool to facilitate substantial archival analysis without placing a high computational or storage burden on the end user.

description: The given work is devoted to the study of stability of particle trajectories in ion-optical systems in order to investigate the possibility of improving the parameters of a number of dynamic mass-analyzing devices. Floquet stability theory was applied to study these linear systems. Diagrams of stability zones for a quadrupole mass filter and a combined ion trap in constant longitudinal, transverse and arbitrary magnetic fields were obtained in the course of the work. The acquired results can be implemented in order to improve selectivity of the quadrupole mass filter, that was presented in this study as well.
Performance Analysis of Sparse Recovery Based on Constrained Minimal Singular Values

Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Information Theory (cs.IT)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: The stability of sparse signal reconstruction is investigated in this paper. We design efficient algorithms to verify the sufficient condition for unique $\ell_1$ sparse recovery. One of our algorithm produces comparable results with the state-of-the-art technique and performs orders of magnitude faster. We show that the $\ell_1$-constrained minimal singular value ($\ell_1$-CMSV) of the measurement matrix determines, in a very concise manner, the recovery performance of $\ell_1$-based algorithms such as the Basis Pursuit, the Dantzig selector, and the LASSO estimator. Compared with performance analysis involving the Restricted Isometry Constant, the arguments in this paper are much less complicated and provide more intuition on the stability of sparse signal recovery. We show also that, with high probability, the subgaussian ensemble generates measurement matrices with $\ell_1$-CMSVs bounded away from zero, as long as the number of measurements is relatively large. To compute the $\ell_1$-CMSV and its lower bound, we design two algorithms based on the interior point algorithm and the semi-definite relaxation.

description: This paper investigates in detail the effects of noise on the performance of reservoir computing. We focus on an application in which reservoir computers are used to learn the relationship between different state variables of a chaotic system. We recognize that noise can affect differently the training and testing phases. We find that the best performance of the reservoir is achieved when the strength of the noise that affects the input signal in the training phase equals the strength of the noise that affects the input signal in the testing phase. For all the cases we examined, we found that a good remedy to noise is to low-pass filter the input and the training/testing signals; this typically preserves the performance of the reservoir, while reducing the undesired effects of noise.
Numerical Discreteness Errors in Multi-Species Cosmological N-body Simulations

description: We present a detailed analysis of numerical discreteness errors in two-species, gravity-only, cosmological simulations using the density power spectrum as a diagnostic probe. In a simple setup where both species are initialized with the same total matter transfer function, biased growth of power forms on small scales when the solver force resolution is finer than the mean interparticle separation. The artificial bias is more severe when individual density and velocity transfer functions are applied. In particular, significant large-scale offsets in power are measured between simulations with conventional offset grid initial conditions when compared against converged high-resolution results where the force resolution scale is matched to the interparticle separation. These offsets persist even when the cosmology is chosen so that the two particle species have the same mass, indicating that the error is sourced from discreteness in the total matter field as opposed to unequal particle mass. We further investigate two mitigation strategies to address discreteness errors: the frozen potential method and softened interspecies short-range forces. The former evolves particles under the approximately "frozen" total matter potential in linear theory at early times, while the latter filters cross-species gravitational interactions on small scales in low density regions. By modeling closer to the continuum limit, both mitigation strategies demonstrate considerable reductions in large-scale power spectrum offsets.

Search for Production of Invisible Final States in Single-Photon Decays of Upsilon(1S)

description: We search for single-photon decays of the Upsilon(1S) resonance, Upsilon->gamma+invisible, where the invisible state is either a particle of definite mass, such as a light Higgs boson A0, or a pair of dark matter particles, chi chi-bar. Both A0 and chi are assumed to have zero spin. We tag Upsilon(1S) decays with a dipion transition Upsilon(2S)->pi+pi-Upsilon(1S) and look for events with a single energetic photon and significant missing energy. We find no evidence for such processes in the mass range m_A0<=9.2 GeV and m_chi<=4.5 GeV in the sample of 98e6 Upsilon(2S) decays collected with the BaBar detector and set stringent limits on new physics models that contain light dark matter states.

Chemical and biological studies on thiopeptide antibiotics : total synthesis of micrococcin P2 and synthetic efforts towards lactocillin
Creators: name: Hwang, Hee-Jong
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: The World Health Organization (WHO) describes antimicrobial resistance (AMR) as one of the three greatest threats to human health. Yet, the current global antibiotic pipeline is scarce, and new resources to combat bacterial pathogens that have become resistant to available antibiotics are few and far between. Therefore, the development of new antibiotics is urgently needed to address the ongoing “antibiotic crisis”. In that regard, thiopeptide antibiotics appear to be good potential sources of new antibacterials. They are potent inhibitors of bacterial protein synthesis and their mode of action is reasonably well understood. Yet, little effort has been made to clinically leverage these natural products. In part, this may be due to the fact that there existed no viable synthetic methods to conduct medicinal chemistry work on these substances. This dissertation presents the first total synthesis of micrococcin P2, a D-series, 26-membered antibiotic, by a synthetic route that incorporates a number of refinements relative to past approaches, and that provides access to large quantities of end product. The synthesis demonstrates economical, concise, efficient, convergent, and diversity-oriented protocols that facilitate medicinal chemistry ventures to a considerable extent. This has enabled an extensive biological evaluation of micrococcin P2 and congeners against Clostridioides difficile, Mycobacterium tuberculosis and non-tuberculous Mycobacterium (NTM). A parallel effort demonstrates the application of the new methodology in a synthetic study toward lactocillin, a metabolite of the human symbiotic bacterium, Lactobacillus gasseri. The work presented herein outlines a route to the most advanced synthetic precursor of lactocillin described to date.

сценарии развития

description: В статье анализируется исторический процесс формирования экономического и валютного союза в рамках Европейского Союза. Рассмотрены институционально-правовые, экономические основы этого процесса и раскрыты сопровождающие его проблемы и противоречия. Показано, что существуют разные сценарии формирования экономического и валютного союза в соотнесении с политической интеграцией. При этом основная проблема заключается в различном уровне социально-экономического развития государств-членов Европейского Союза и соотношения сторонников и противников евроинтеграции в политическом пространстве государств-членов.

On the Lift, Related Privacy Measures, and Applications to Privacy-Utility Tradeoffs

description: This paper investigates lift, the likelihood ratio between the posterior and prior belief about sensitive features in a dataset. Maximum and minimum lifts over sensitive features quantify the adversary's knowledge gain and should be bounded to protect privacy. We demonstrate that max and min lifts have a distinct range of values and probability of appearance in the dataset, referred to as \emph{lift asymmetry}. We propose asymmetric local information privacy (ALIP) as a compatible privacy notion with lift asymmetry, where different bounds can be applied to min and max lifts. We use ALIP in the watchdog and optimal random response (ORR) mechanisms, the main methods to achieve lift-based privacy. It is shown that ALIP enhances utility in these methods compared to existing local information privacy, which ensures the same (symmetric) bounds on both max and min lifts. We propose subset merging for the watchdog mechanism to improve data utility and subset random response for the ORR to reduce complexity. We then investigate the related lift-based measures, including $\ell_1$-norm, $χ^2$-privacy criterion, and $α$-lift. We reveal that they can only restrict max-lift, resulting in significant min-lift leakage. To overcome this problem, we propose corresponding lift-inverse measures to restrict the min-lift. We apply these lift-based and lift-inverse measures in the watchdog mechanism. We show that they can be considered as relaxations of ALIP, where a higher utility can be achieved by bounding only average max and min lifts.

description: The multi-terminal generalization of the steady-state density functional theory for the description of electronic and thermal transport (iq-DFT) is presented. The linear response regime of the framework is developed leading to exact expressions for the many-body transport coefficients and thermoelectric efficiency purely in terms of quantities accessible to the framework. The theory is applied to a multi-terminal interacting quantum dot in the Coulomb blockade regime for which accurate parametrizations of the exchange-correlation kernel matrix are given. The thermoelectric efficiency and output power of the multi-terminal system are studied. Surprisingly, the strong-interaction limit of these quantities can be understood in terms of the non-interacting one.

description: We conduct a statistical analysis of the radio source population in galaxy clusters as a function of redshift by matching radio sources from the Faint Images of the Radio Sky at Twenty-Centimeters (FIRST) catalog with 618 optically-selected galaxy clusters from the first Red-Sequence Cluster Survey (RCS1). The number of excess radio sources (above the background level) per cluster is 0.14 +/- 0.02 for clusters with 0.35 < z < 0.65 and is 0.10 +/- 0.02 for clusters with 0.65 < z < 0.95. The richest clusters in the sample have more radio sources than clusters with low or intermediate richness. When we divide our sample into bins according to cluster richness, we do not observe any significant difference (> 1.5 sigma) in the number of radio sources per unit of cluster mass for the galaxy clusters with 0.35 < z < 0.65 as compared to the galaxy clusters with 0.65 < z < 0.95. Thus the entire sample can be characterized by the number of (L(1.4 GHz) > 4.1 X 10^(24) W/Hz) radio sources per unit (10^14 solar masses) mass, which we measure to be 0.031 +/- 0.004. We further characterize the population of galaxy cluster-related radio sources through visual inspection of the RCS1 images, finding that although the radio activity of brightest cluster galaxies (BCGs) also does not strongly evolve between our high and low redshift samples, the lower-redshift, richest clusters are more likely to host radio-loud BCGs than the higher-redshift, richest clusters or poorer clusters at the 2-sigma level.

Measurement of sin^2θ_{eff}^{lept} and Z-light quark couplings using the forward-backward charge asymmetry in p\bar{p} -> Z/γ^{*} -> e^{+}e^{-} events with L=5.0 fb^{-1} at \sqrt{s}=1.96 TeV

description: We measure the mass dependence of the forward-backward charge asymmetry in 157,553 $p\bar{p} \rightarrow Z/γ^{*} \rightarrow e^+e^-$ interactions, corresponding to 5.0 fb$^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity collected by the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider at $\sqrt{s}=1.96$ TeV. The effective weak mixing angle ($\sin^2θ_{eff}^{lept}$) from this process involving predominantly the first generation of quarks is extracted as $\sin^2θ_{eff}^{lept} = 0.2309 \pm 0.0008 ({stat.}) \pm 0.0006 ({syst.})$. We also present the most precise direct measurement of the vector and axial-vector couplings of $u$ and $d$ quarks to the $Z$ boson.

Characteristics Identified That Contributed to the Survival and Revitalization of Two Independent Baptist Churches—A Multiple Case Study
Creators: name: Madaris, Brent
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: Although many denominations of American Christianity have placed an emphasis on church revitalization, no significant emphasis (academic or popular) on church revitalization has been witnessed among Independent Baptist churches. This paper reports the author’s first approach to revitalization research among Independent Baptist churches. This research focuses on two churches that have been successfully revitalized. Personal interviews were conducted with the lead pastors of these two churches. Also, six individuals (two lead pastors and four other church ministers) were given a 176-point questionnaire, which all participants filled out twice: once as they recalled what the church had been like when they first arrived and once to describe what the church is like currently.

These questionnaires and interviews were combined in a mixed-methods research software called Dedoose; and valuable information, including revitalization themes (for current application and future research), was gained through the resulting analysis. The top five characteristics of revitalization associated with the survival and recovery of the two studied churches were leadership, community engagement, discipleship, evangelism, and programmatic emphasis. Because those in leadership consistently pursued and applied these revitalization factors, each church overcame problems and has continued to advance to the present day.
Schooling, power and subjectification : combining the ideas of Michel Foucault and Pierre Bourdieu
Creators: name: Martin, Joanne Susan
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: In this thesis, I analyze and clarify the ideas of power and subjectification as they operate in schooling, and as discussed by Michel Foucault and Pierre Bourdieu respectively. Often considered incompatible, I will show that the respective ideas of these two theorists share complementary aspects and overlap significantly. Further, I suggest that when considered together, the complementary ideas of power and subjectification offer educators, and others interested in schooling and its effects, greater access to an understanding of how the concepts of power, schooling and subjectification operate. I rely Foucault’s Discipline and Punish (1975/1977) and Bourdieu and Passeron’s Reproduction in Education, Society and Culture (1977/1990), as well as several secondary texts, noting areas of convergence and divergence between the authors’ works. My argument is developed through philosophical inquiry, which attempted to map this conceptual terrain, and in addition, through a relational analysis that sought to place these different ideas of power, subjectification, and schooling in relation to one another. My research examines power structures that operate through the institution and practices of schooling. My purpose for conducting this research is to show that the foundational elements of both authors’ ideas in these areas share significant convergences, which, when used together as a conceptual framework can better understand the obscure, hidden, or less overt effects of schooling. In turn, I illustrate that by thinking with both Michel Foucault and Pierre Bourdieu, educators can shed light on how these effects relate to the formation of subjects and how subjects interact with power. More importantly, understanding of schooling, subjectification and power in these complementary ways, I suggest that educators can more deeply recognize aspects of their practice, and may enable them to approach a more critical view of the shaping and carrying out of their work.

description: The emergence of local phases in a trapped two-component Fermi gas in an optical lattice is studied using quantum Monte Carlo simulations. We treat temperatures that are comparable or lower than those presently achievable in experiments and large enough systems that both magnetic and paired phases can be detected by inspection of the behavior of suitable short-range correlations. We use the latter to suggest the interaction strength and temperature range at which experimental observation of incipient magnetism and d-wave pairing are more likely and evaluate the relation between entropy and temperature in two-dimensional confined fermionic systems.

description: We have calculated the low-lying elementary excitations of three-dimensional few-vortex arrays in trapped Bose-Einstein condensates. The number of different Kelvin-Tkachenko vortex wave branches matches the number of vortices in the condensate. The lowest odd-parity modes exhibit superfluid gyroscopic vortex motion. Experimentally, these modes could be excited and observed individually or in connection with the formation and decay of quantum turbulence.

description: The coupled-trajectory mixed quantum classical method (CTMQC), derived from the exact factorization approach, has successfully predicted photo-chemical dynamics in a number of interesting molecules, capturing population transfer and decoherence from first-principles. However, due to the approximations made, CTMQC does not guarantee energy conservation. We propose a modified algorithm, CTMQC-E, which redefines the integrated force in the coupled-trajectory term so to restore energy conservation, and demonstrate its accuracy on scattering in Tully's extended coupling region model and photoisomerization in a retinal chromophore model.

description: We analyze the stationary spin-dependent transport through a single-molecule magnet weakly coupled to external ferromagnetic leads. Using the real-time diagrammatic technique, we calculate the sequential and cotunneling contributions to current, tunnel magnetoresistance and Fano factor in both linear and nonlinear response regimes. We show that the effects of cotunneling are predominantly visible in the blockade regime and lead to enhancement of tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) above the Julliere value, which is accompanied with super-Poissonian shot noise due to bunching of inelastic cotunneling processes through different virtual spin states of the molecule. The effects of external magnetic field and the role of type and strength of exchange interaction between the LUMO level and the molecule's spin are also considered. When the exchange coupling is ferromagnetic, we find an enhanced TMR, while in the case of antiferromagnetic coupling we predict a large negative TMR effect.

description: We present the spectral and spatial evolution of H$_2$O masers associated with the water fountain source IRAS 18043$-$2116 found in the observations with the Nobeyama 45 m telescope and the Australia Telescope Compact Array. We have found new highest velocity components of the H$_2$O masers (at the red-shifted side $V_{\rm LSR}\simeq376~\mathrm{km~s}^{-1}$ and at the blue-shifted side $V_{\rm LSR}\simeq$ $-165~\mathrm{km~s}^{-1}$), and the resulting velocity spread of $\simeq 540~\mathrm{km~s}^{-1}$ breaks the speed record of fast jets/outflows in this type of sources. The locations of those components have offsets from the axis joining the two major maser clusters, indicating a large opening angle of the outflow ($\sim60^{\circ}$). The evolution of the maser cluster separation of $\sim$2.9 mas yr$^{-1}$ and the compact ($\sim0.''2$) CO emission source mapped with the Atacama Large Millimeter-submillimeter Array suggest a very short ($\sim$30 yr) timescale of the outflow. We also confirmed the increase in the flux density of the 22 GHz continuum source. The properties of the jet and the continuum sources and their possible evolution in the transition to the planetary nebula phase are further discussed.

Measurement of the $B^-$ lifetime using a simulation free approach for trigger bias correction
Creators: name: The CDF Collaboration

Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The collection of a large number of $B$ hadron decays to hadronic final states at the CDF II detector is possible due to the presence of a trigger that selects events based on track impact parameters. However, the nature of the selection requirements of the trigger introduces a large bias in the observed proper decay time distribution. A lifetime measurement must correct for this bias and the conventional approach has been to use a Monte Carlo simulation. The leading sources of systematic uncertainty in the conventional approach are due to differences between the data and the Monte Carlo simulation. In this paper we present an analytic method for bias correction without using simulation, thereby removing any uncertainty between data and simulation. This method is presented in the form of a measurement of the lifetime of the $B^{-}$ using the mode B -> D0 pi. The $B^-$ lifetime is measured as $τ_{B^-}$ = 1.663 $\pm$ 0.023 $\pm$ 0.015 ps, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic. This new method results in a smaller systematic uncertainty in comparison to methods that use simulation to correct for the trigger bias.
