description: The KIT storage ring KARA operates in a wide energy range from 0.5 to 2.5 GeV. Different operation modes have been implemented at KARA, so far, the double-bend achromat (DBA) lattice with non-dispersive straight sections, the theoretical minimum emittance (TME) lattice with distributed dispersion, different versions of low-compaction factor optics with highly stretched dispersion function. Short bunches of a few ps pulse width are available at KARA. Low-alpha optics has been simulated, tested and implemented in a wide operational range of the storage ring and is now routinely used at 1.3 GeV for studies of beam bursting effects caused by coherent synchrotron radiation in the THz frequency range. Different non-linear effects, in particular residual high-order components of the magnetic field, generated in high-field superconducting wigglers have been studied and cured. Based on good agreement between computer simulations and experiments, a new operation mode at high vertical tune was implemented. The beam performance during user operation as well as at low-alpha regimes has been improved. A specific optic with negative compaction factor was simulated, tested and is in operation.
“Corazon de Lumbre, Alma de Nieve”: Sentimentality and Nationalism through La Leyenda de los Volcanes

Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2020
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This thesis looks specifically to understand why Jesus Helguera’s 1940 painting of the Leyenda de los Volcanes was so successful in the promotion of nationalistic sentiments. Although Helguera’s images has been consistently present in the consciousness of Mexican identity since the mid-20th century, the paintings confinement as ‘kitsch art’ have obscured it from an in depth critical lens. Due to the image’s confinement to kitsch, most writings do not adequately address how sentimentality became a powerful tool in creating the nation and its early origins. To understand Helguera’s work, I trace the lineage of the tale and the presence of the volcanoes in artistic practices from Pre-Columbian art to the mid-20th century, the height of the Mexican Calendar movement. This is not to imply a progression of aesthetics or to show any sort of ‘progress’ in aesthetics or art forms, but to display the rooted influences that Helguera was drawing rom. Through the lens of sentimentality, nationalism, and meaning of landscape, I explain how the image of the volcanoes has been used in the canon of Mexican history, morphing at pivotal points in history and how the use of the anthropomorphic Popocatépetl and Iztaccíhuatl situate viewers in both their time and space within a rooted Mexican history. In other words, how the sentimental art of Helguera created a ‘proper’ viewer that identities themselves as a child of the Mexican nation.

Looking to Vancouver's elders : the 1960s and 1970s food counterculture story and how it informs the contemporary incarnation of Vancouver's food sustainability movement: an interdisciplinary qualitative study
Creators: name: Dumont, Camil
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: This interdisciplinary research is grounded in the Land and Foods Systems Faculty. It combines the Disciplines of Food Systems Research with that of History to investigate the intersection of the 1960s and 1970s Vancouver counterculture movement with food activism. This qualitative research is based on the belief that we must understand history to plan the future. The dominant food system is unsustainable. Thus, sustainability research is imperative regarding that steps that must be taken to move our dominant food system to one that does not compromise the long-term survival of our species or countless others. This research is a modified oral history of Vancouver’s 1960s and 1970s food counterculture movement. It contributes to the explanation of the events in Vancouver food activism in the 1960s and 1970s and communicates the advice, perspectives and experiences of activists from that time with respect to Vancouver’s food sustainability challenges today. This research specifically asks elders in Vancouver’s food activist community to help guide a current and new generation of food activists in that same city.

The com­bi­na­tion of a com­pact stor­age ring and a laser wake­field ac­cel­er­a­tor (LWFA) might be the basis for fu­ture com­pact light sources and ad­vanc­ing user fa­cil­i­ties. Mean­while, the post-LWFA beam should be adapted for stor­age and ac­cu­mu­la­tion in a ded­i­cated stor­age ring. Mod­i­fied geom­e­try and lat­tice of a VLA-cSR op­er­at­ing at 50 MeV en­ergy range have been stud­ied in de­tailed sim­u­la­tions. The main fea­tures of a new model are de­scribed here. The new de­sign, based on 45° bend­ing mag­nets, is suit­able to store the post-LWFA beam with a wide mo­men­tum spread (1% to 2%) as well as ul­tra-short elec­tron bunches in the fs range from the Fer­n­in­frarot Linac- Und Test- Ex­per­i­ment (FLUTE). The DBA-FDF lat­tice with re­laxed set­tings, split el­e­ments, and higher-or­der op­tics of tol­er­a­ble strength al­lows im­prov­ing the dy­namic aper­ture to an ac­cept­able level. This con­tri­bu­tion dis­cusses the lat­tice fea­tures in de­tail and dif­fer­ent pos­si­ble op­er­a­tion schemes of a VLA-cSR.

description: We derive an exact analytical expression for the one-loop partition function of a string in AdS_5xS^5 background with world-surface ending on two anti-parallel lines. All quantum fluctuations are shown to be governed by integrable, single-gap Lame' operators. The first strong coupling correction to the quark-antiquark potential, as defined in N=4 SYM, is derived as the sum of known mathematical constants and a one-dimensional integral representation. Its full numerical value can be given with arbitrary precision and confirms a previous result.

description: Fossil systems are defined to be X-ray bright galaxy groups with a 2-magnitude difference between their two brightest galaxies within half the projected virial radius,and represent an interesting extreme of the population of galaxy agglomerations.However,the physical conditions and processes leading to their formation are still poorly constrained.We compare the outskirts of fossil systems with that of normal groups to understand whether environmental conditions play a significant role in their formation.We study galaxy groups in both,numerical simulations and observations.We use a variety of statistical tools including the spatial cross-correlation function and the local density parameter Δ_5 to probe differences in the density and structure of the environments of normal and fossil systems in the Millennium simulation.We find that the number density of galaxies surrounding fossil systems evolves from greater than that observed around normal systems at z=0.69, to lower than the normal systems by z=0.Both fossil and normal systems exhibit an increment in their otherwise radially declining local density measure (Δ_5) at distances of order 2.5r_{vir} from the system centre.We show that this increment is more noticeable for fossil systems than normal systems and demonstrate that this difference is linked to the earlier formation epoch of fossil groups.Despite the importance of the assembly time, we show that the environment is different for fossil and non-fossil systems with similar masses and formation times along their evolution.We also confirm that the physical characteristics identified in the Millennium simulation can also be detected in SDSS observations.Our results confirm the commonly held belief that fossil systems assembled earlier than normal systems but also show that the surroundings of fossil groups could be responsible for the formation of their large magnitude gap.

description: Synchrotron light sources operate with bunch repetition rates in the MHz regime. The longitudinal and transverse beam dynamics of these electron bunches can be investigated and characterized by experiments employing linear array detectors. To improve the performance of modern beam diagnostics and overcome the limitations of commercially available detectors, we have at KIT developed KALYPSO, a detector system operating with an unprecedented frame rate of up to 12 MHz. To facilitate the integration in different experiments, a modular architecture has been utilized. Different semiconductor microstrip sensors based on Si, InGaAs, PbS, and PbSe can be connected to the custom-designed low noise front-end ASIC to optimize the quantum efficiency at different photon energies, ranging from near-UV, visible, and up to near-IR. The front-end electronics are integrated within a heterogeneous DAQ consisting of FPGAs and GPUs, which allows the implementation of real-time data processing. This detector is currently installed at KARA, European XFEL, FLASH, Soleil, DELTA. In this contribution, we present the detector architecture, the performance results, and the ongoing technical developments.

description: KALYPSO is a novel detector capable of operating at frame rates up to 12 MHz developed and tested at the institute of data processing and electronics (IPE) and employed at Karlsruhe Research Accelerator (KARA) which is part of the Test Facility and Synchrotron Radiation Source KIT. This detector consists of silicon, InGaAs, PbS, or PbSe line array sensor with spectral sensitivity from 350 nm to 5000 nm. The unprecedented frame rate of this detector is achieved by a custom-designed ASIC readout chip. The FPGA-readout architecture enables continuous data acquisition and real-time data processing. Such a detector has various applications in the fields of beam diagnostics and spectral analysis. KALYPSO is currently employed at various synchrotron facilities for electro-optical spectral decoding (EOSD) to study the longitudinal profile of the electron beam, to study the energy spread of the electron beam, tuning of free-electron lasers (FELs), and also in characterizing laser spectra. This contribution will present an overview of the results from the mentioned applications.
title: Joyful bodies, joyful minds: gender euphoria among transgender adults living in Canada
Creators: name: Tacit, Sam
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
Year: 2020

description: Gender euphoria is a relatively recent term to describe positive experiences of transgender identity. There is very limited literature on this term and its implications, despite the impact it can have on positively affecting one’s self-esteem and pride. In this thesis I seek to understand how transgender adults living in Canada define and experience gender euphoria. 26 participants responded to an online survey that included a series of questions regarding their experiences with gender euphoria, and their definitions for the term. Their responses suggest that gender euphoria encompasses many emotional, psychological, and interpersonal factors. The participants described gender euphoria as a complex and emotion-driven experience, often brought about by both internal changes to one’s self-perception and the external validation of others.

title: The personal and social impact of non-accredited music education in prison: a transformative mixed methods approach to research in custodial settings
Creators: name: Betts, N.
Publisher: name: Royal College of Music
Year: 2020

description: In recent years there has been a shift in the focus of prison education, from treatment interventions and learning that centres around employability skills building, to opportunities that support personal and social development, with the aim to position education in custodial settings as a structure that supports processes of desistance. Against this background, I set out to explore the impact of my new, non-accredited music course on learners in prison, framing music-making activity in prisons within the context of social and criminal justice. I was interested in understanding why impact is or isn’t experienced in my classroom, whether it’s a direct result of the music, or if instead impact is a response to the pedagogical style to teaching music that I implement. A transformative mixed methods research approach was adopted in order to practice cultural competence, uncover multiple perspectives, build trusting relationships with the participants and address the diverse needs of the prison population. Data was collected from one cohort of learners on a four-week music course (n=6) at HMP/YOI Portland, using methods based on learning activities that are a normal part of the music course, thereby ensuring ecological validity. Data analysis was conducted using grounded theory guidelines to sharpen the thematic analysis of qualitative data, ensuring a close relationship with the data and critical self-reflection of my privileged positionality as a white, free woman. Based on concepts of Convict Criminology, interviews with two classroom peer mentors were also collected. The peer mentors were positioned as ‘insider’ research commenters in this study, situated to give a broader analysis of the research topics, to establish routes to the representation of authentic narratives of learners in prison. This research found that music-making activities in prison can have a positive impact on participants' mood, self-confidence and motivation, leading to positive; changes in personal and social development; and shifts in self-evaluation and lower-order self-concept. There was strong evidence that impact was experienced by the participants, not as a result of the music alone, but because the pedagogy created the conditions for a space that contrasted the wider prison environment. Recommendations for practice are made, including the need for a pedagogy for prison education which recognises the value of social learning experiences and ensures that within the contrasting wider prison environment, spaces can be created that support positive mood states, alternative social reinforcement and the development of autonomy supportive relationships.

Development of an agent based simulation model for pedestrian interactions
Creators: name: Hussein, Mohamed
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2017

description: Developing a solid understanding of pedestrian behavior is important for promoting walking as an active mode of transportation and enhancing pedestrian safety. Computer simulation of pedestrian dynamics has gained recent interest as an important tool in analyzing pedestrian behavior in many applications. As such, this thesis presents the details of the development of a microscopic simulation model that is capable of modeling detailed pedestrian interactions. The model was developed based on the agent-based modeling approach, which outperforms other existing modeling approaches in accounting for the heterogeneity of the pedestrian population and considering the pedestrian intelligence. Key rules that control pedestrian interactions in the model were extracted from a detailed pedestrian behavior study that was conducted using an automated computer vision platform, developed at UBC. The model addressed both uni-directional and bi-directional pedestrian interactions. A comprehensive methodology for calibrating model parameters and validating its results was proposed in the thesis. Model parameters that could be measured from the data were directly calibrated from actual pedestrian trajectories, acquired by means of computer vision. Other parameters were indirectly calibrated using a Genetic Algorithm that aimed at minimizing the error between actual and simulated trajectories. The validation showed that the average error between actual and simulated trajectories was 0.35 meters. Detailed validation of the accuracy of simulating pedestrian behavior during different interactions showed that the model successfully reproduced the actual behavior taken by pedestrians in the actual data in 95% of the cases. The simulation model was then applied to analyze pedestrian behavior in two case studies in Vancouver and Oakland. The two case studies addressed different pedestrian flow conditions and different walking environments. The average errors between actual and simulated trajectories for the two studies were found to be 0.28 m and 0.49 m, respectively. The average speed errors were 0.06 m/s and 0.04 m/s in the two studies, correspondingly. The accuracy of reproducing the actual behavior of pedestrians exceeded 87% for most of interactions considered in the two studies. The accuracy of simulating group behavior during different interactions was found to be 96% and 92% in the two studies, respectively.

description: FLUTE (Ferninfrarot Linac- Und Test-Experiment) is a compact linac-based test facility for accelerator and diagnostics R&D. An example for a new accelerator diagnostics tool currently studied at FLUTE is the split-ring-resonator (SRR) experiment, which aims to measure the longitudinal bunch profile of fs-scale electron bunches. Laser-generated THz radiation is used to excite a high frequency oscillating electromagnetic field in the SRR. Particles passing through the SRR gap are time-dependently deflected in the vertical plane, which allows a vertical streaking of an electron bunch. This principle allows a diagnosis of the longitudinal bunch profile in the femtosecond time domain and will be tested at FLUTE. This contribution presents an overview of the SRR experiment and the results of various tracking simulations for different scenarios as a function of laser pulse length and bunch charge. Based on these results possible working points for the experiments at FLUTE will be proposed.

title: Investigating the role of the food-entrainable oscillator and the effect of light manipulations on hippocampal-dependent and hippocampal-independent tasks
Creators: name: Cassell, Taylor
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
Year: 2020

description: Circadian rhythms are responsible for physiological processes necessary for survival. The presence of certain external cues (e.g., light, food) are necessary to maintain rhythmicity in the suprachiasmatic nucleus. However, disruption of circadian rhythms occurs through irregular patterns in external cues (e.g., shift work). Circadian disruption impairs hippocampal-dependent memory. Two experiments were conducted that explored the influence of circadian disruption (i.e., light manipulations) on performance of hippocampal-dependent and -independent tasks. Additionally, food access was restricted to assess any benefit of consistent feeding schedules in performance on these tasks. Experiment 1 used a modified 30-day light manipulation and had rats on either single or multiple meal schedules. The results of Experiment 1 found an impairment in acquisition of the hippocampal-dependent Morris Water Maze task in the groups exposed to the light manipulation, but no effect of meal schedule. There were no differences between groups in performance of the hippocampal-independent tasks (i.e., Elevated-Plus Maze, and Stimulus-Response Task). Experiment 2 used a previously validated light manipulation, with the addition of rats placed on either a single of multiple meal regimen. The results of Experiment 2 found no differences between groups in retention of the Morris Water Maze task. Overall, the light manipulation in Experiment 1 resulted in an impairment in the acquisition phase of the Morris Water Maze task, but the impairment was not present in the probes or other phases of the task. Experiment 2 was incomplete due to COVID-19; It is expected that with the addition of a second cohort an effect of meal will be observed in retention of the Morris Water Maze Task.

description: We contemplate an experimental situation in a $2^k$-factorial experiment with acute resource crunch so that we need to conduct just a saturated design [SD] - with the understanding that precision of the estimates cannot be estimated from the data. It is known beforehand which effect(s)/interaction(s) are likely to be negligible. We examine the flexibility to the extent that an experimenter can make a choice of an SD in order to retain information on all the remaining [non-negligible] effects/interactions.

description: FLUTE (Ferninfrarot Linac- und Test-Experiment) is a compact linac-based test facility for accelerator R&D and source of intense THz radiation for photon science. In preparation for the next experiments, the electron beam of the injector section of FLUTE has been characterized. In systematic studies the electron beam parameters, e.g., beam energy and emittance, are measured with several diagnostic systems. This knowledge allows the establishment of different operation settings and the optimization of electron beam parameters for future experiments.

description: The onset of the maternal-to-zygotic transition (MZT) in animals is dependent upon multiple and variable factors, including maternally deposited transcription factors, DNA methylation, and the nucleocytoplasmic ratio (N/C ratio). While the MZT has been characterized extensively in several model systems, it is unclear how universal the features in those systems are or how the MZT adapts to different genetic systems. To expand the phylogenetic sampling of MZT systems, we have been using the jewel wasp Nasonia. Unlike other models, Nasonia uses a haplodiploid genetic system, where fertilized eggs develop as diploid females and unfertilized develop as haploid males. Also, in contrast to the well-characterized MZT model Drosophila, but similar to most other metazoans, Nasonia has a complete functional DNA methylation toolkit. In this thesis, I functionally characterized the unusual features of the Nasonia MZT. Firstly, the N/C ratio does not appear to play an important role in determining the timing of early embryonic events during the Nasonia MZT. Despite this, key players of the Drosophila MZT, such as Smaug and Zelda, are functionally conserved in Nasonia. Second, I found that a DNA methyltransferase paralog (Nv-dnmt1a) is required for both MZT and global gene body methylation during the MZT Nasonia. Genes that lost DNA methylation in their gene bodies as a result of Nv-dnmt1a knockdown have reduced transcriptional output, suggesting that gene body methylation is required for robust transcription during zygotic genome activation. Previous work in Nasonia showed that sex determination is largely regulated by the MZT. Using previously generated transcriptome datasets; I identified several candidates that may play a role in establishing female fate in Nasonia. Additionally, I performed a parental RNAi screen looking at the function of over 30 sex-specific transcripts and identified several that were either dispensable for embryogenesis or required for oogenesis. I also performed chromatin accessibility assays to identify regulatory regions for important for embryonic patterning and sex determination to be used for putative enhancer studies. This work represents the first set of functional studies that reveal how the MZT has adapted to different genetic systems in insects outside of Drosophila.
(Re)animating history : animated documentaries in contemporary Hispanic cinema

description: Animation for adult audiences is a booming sector in Hispanic cinema in both fiction and non-fiction films alike. This is particularly true of the documentary genre, in which Spanish and Latin American filmmakers are employing various animation techniques to essentially (re)animate particularly traumatic periods of history. That is to say, they do the work of reconstructing or re-creating history through the cinematic practice of animation. Jairo Carrillo and Oscar Andrade’s Pequeñas voces (Colombia, 2010), María Seaone’s Eva de la Argentina (Argentina, 2011), and Manuel H. Martín’s 30 años de oscuridad (Spain, 2012) do this work of reconstructing periods of political unrest through a blending of animation and archival materials. The recent turn to animation in recounting historical narratives leads us to contemplate the purpose and effect of veering away from conventional live-action portrayals in documentary history. Accordingly, our first research question asks why and how animation is effective as a representational strategy in the re-telling of the historical moments and subjects that the films in our corpus depict. To answer this first research question, we consider the three functions of animation proposed by leading animated documentary scholar Annabelle Honess Roe (2013): non-mimetic substitution, mimetic substitution, and evocation. Beyond being linked by their exemplification of Roe’s three functions of animation, the films in our corpus all have a relationship to the uncanny that arises directly from the juxtaposition of the animated and the audiovisual archival elements. Animated film scholarship has begun to draw connections between Sigmund Freud’s (1919) notion of the ‘uncanny’ and films that combine animation and the archival. Accordingly, our second research question asks: in what ways does the ‘uncanny’ animated aesthetic in these three films manifest itself, and to what end?

Experiences, Identity, and Mental Health of Louisiana Creole People of Color

description: The number of Americans who identify as multiracial has grown steadily since the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in 1967 that bans against interracial marriage are unconstitutional, and the 2000 census gave respondents the option to choose more than one race. Louisiana Creole people of color are a multiracial group with long historical and geographic roots. The Creole Heritage Center recognizes Creoles of color as people who represent intergenerational mixtures of French and/or Spanish and/or Native American heritages and African heritage. Multiracial people face many challenges related to identity and social treatment. The stress caused by racial prejudice and discrimination is associated with health problems, particularly mental illness and psychiatric disability. Some studies on minority identity suggest that a strong ethnic identity may help protect people from mental health problems caused by racial stress. Because of their intergenerational history and geographical proximity to each other, Louisiana Creoles of color are a multiracial people with potentially high ethnic identity. However, past research on multiracial people has focused primarily on Black/White racial identity. There has been relatively little research on Creole people to guide health policy or supports for Creoles with mental health problems. This dissertation research explored how Creole people of color form their identity and how racial stress affects their mental health. These dynamics were investigated via primarily qualitative methods, specifically a constructivist grounded theory analysis of data from a focus group, a group interview of a Creole family, and 18 individual semi-structured interviews with persons who identified as Creole. Data analysis yielded five major themes focusing on identity development, the place of race in Creole experience, negative social treatment, stress and mental health, and community. The Creoles of color who participated in this research tended to form their racial/ethnic identity differently than other multiracial people do, according to the literature. Additionally, their identity was more salient than the identity of other multiracial people. The meaning and importance of Creole identity to these participants and its relationship to racial stress and mental health is discussed, centering the words of the research participants.

description: We have investigated the ground state properties of polycrystalline CeCoAsO by means of magnetization, specific heat and solid state NMR. Susceptibility and specific-heat measurements suggest a ferromagnetic order at about, $T_\mathrm{C}$=75 K. No further transitions are found down to 2 K. At 6.5 K a complex Schottky type of anomaly shows up in the specific heat results. The interplay between Ce-4f and Co-3d magnetism being responsible for that anomaly is discussed. Furthermore $^{75}$As NMR investigations have been performed to probe the magnetism on a microscopic scale. As-NMR spectra are analysed in terms of first and second order quadrupolar interaction. The anisotropic shift component $K_{\mathrm{ab}}$ and $K_{\mathrm{c}}$ could be derived from the $^{75}$As powder spectra. Towards lower temperature a strong shift anisotropy was found. Nonetheless $K_{\mathrm{iso}}$ tracks the bulk susceptibility down to $T=$50 K very well. Furthermore the presence of weak correlations among the Ce ions in the ferromagnetic state is discussed. The observed increase of $C/T$ towards lower temperatures supports this interpretation.

description: New operation modes are often considered during the development of new synchrotron light sources. An understanding of the effects involved is inevitable for a successful operation of these schemes. At the KIT storage ring KARA (Karlsruhe Research Accelerator), new modes can be implemented and tested at various energies, employing a variety of performant beam diagnostics devices. Negative momentum compaction optics at various energies have been established. Also, the influence of a negative momentum compaction factor on different effects has been investigated. This contribution comprises a short report on the status of the implementation of a negative momentum compaction optics at KARA. Additionally, first measurements of the changes to the current-dependent bunch length will be presented.

description: Despite their diversity, many of the most prominent candidate theories of quantum gravity share the property to be effectively lower-dimensional at small scales. In particular, dimension two plays a fundamental role in the finiteness of these models of Nature. Thus motivated, we entertain the idea that spacetime is a multifractal with integer dimension 4 at large scales, while it is two-dimensional in the ultraviolet. Consequences for particle physics, gravity and cosmology are discussed.

description: We propose to test the theory of continuous spontaneous localization (CSL) in an all-optical time-domain Talbot-Lau interferometer for clusters with masses exceeding 1000000 amu. By assessing the relevant environmental decoherence mechanisms, as well as the growing size of the particles relative to the grating fringes, we argue that it will be feasible to test the quantum superposition principle in a mass range excluded by recent estimates of the CSL effect.

A site-directed mutagenesis approach to study the functions of the histidine kinase CckA in Rhodobacter capsulatus gene transfer agent production and recipient capability
Creators: name: Wiesmann, Christina
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2017

description: The Rhodobacer capsulatus gene transfer agent (RcGTA) is a phage-like particle capable of packaging, and transferring, ~4 kbp fragments of DNA between different strains of R. capsulatus. This genetic transfer is dependent upon a variety of factors, including the regulation of transcription of the main structural gene cluster, particle maturation, release, and uptake (RcGTA recipient capability) by other, ‘RcGTA competent’ cells. These processes have been previously demonstrated to be regulated by the CckA-ChpT-CtrA phosphorelay pathway. I have created three CckA site-directed mutants thought to be involved in mediating kinase, phosphatase, or cyclic-di-GMP binding activities of the CckA protein. My results provide strong evidence that these three activities play roles in regulating the transcription, maturation, and RcGTA ‘competency’ of these cells. My thesis also provides evidence that the ChpT, and DivL regulatory proteins play a role in the regulation of RcGTA recipient capability. I further demonstrate that cell growth and morphology are not noticeably affected by mutations in CckA activity, and that differences in RcGTA recipient capability are not due to differences in the ability of RcGTA particles to bind, or adsorb, to cells. Overall, my thesis provides novel insights in to how RcGTA production and recipient capability are regulated, furthering our understanding of how this novel horizontal gene transfer mechanism is regulated.
