title: The Case of the Psychic Detective: Progress, Professionalisation, and the Occult in Psychic Detective Fiction from the 1880s to the 1930s

subject: psychic detective fiction

description: This thesis examines a little-known hybrid genre popular in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries: psychic detective fiction. The stories that comprise this hybrid genre involve the rational investigation of supernatural phenomena. They have received relatively little critical attention due, in part, to their inability to fit comfortably in either the traditional “detective” or “ghost story” categories, in addition to the comparative obscurity of many of the writers. Typically, psychic detective narratives have been subsumed within the discourses of late Victorian “Gothic” criticism. Consequently they have been understood as manifestations of various forms of cultural anxiety because Gothic criticism is typically concerned with the transgression of boundaries and the anxieties associated with modernity. This thesis moves beyond the anxiety model of Gothic criticism by arguing that psychic detective fiction engages with ideas of progress, contemporary occult theories and the development of professionalisation at the turn of the century. While anxiety was certainly one response to the uncertainty and rapid change that is generally understood as characterising the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, so too was optimism, excitement regarding new possibilities and a fervent desire to bring about social improvement. In particular, this thesis focuses upon progressive ideas of social reform, collectivism, relativity, the synthesis of seemingly different “ways of knowing” and the possibilities offered by new fields of study such as the social sciences and psychical research. It is the sense of possibility, excitement, and faith in the ability to improve (both as individuals and as a society), that characterises psychic detective fiction. The detectives discussed are concerned with problem solving, attempting to bring about positive resolutions to supernatural problems, and providing assistance to those in need. In psychic detective fiction resolution and understanding is most often brought about through the merging of seemingly disparate elements and the transcending of binary oppositions, rather than the traditionally Gothic mode of reinstating former boundaries and enforcing the separation or elimination of the threatening force. Psychic detectives are more concerned with forging new paths than recovering the status quo.
title: Reaction microscope studies of small molecules in strong laser fields

subject: Ionization dynamics

description: The dynamics of molecules and molecular reactions that generate chemistry such as bond breaking, bond formation or bond rearrangement occur on the femtosecond [...] time scale. Real-time observations and investigations of these reactions are fundamental to understanding these dynamics. Ultra-fast laser pulses with intensities around 1014 W=cm2, impact on the electronic and nuclear motion on femtosecond timescale. In order to understand the region of transition states between the initial and final state of a reaction, that determines the fate of the products, detailed experimental investigations are necessary. This work focuses on three separate investigations, one addressing the strong field control of the electronic dynamics in the hydrogen molecule and two addressing the strong field ionization dynamics in small but complex hydrocarbon molecule acetylene (C2H2). The pump-probe approach is applied to observe the real-time femtochemistry. [...]

description: A relation between the deformed Hulthén potential and the Eckart one is used to write the bound-state wavefunctions of the former in terms of Jacobi polynomials and to calculate their normalization coefficients. The shape invariance property of the Eckart potential in standard first-order supersymmetric quantum mechanics allows to easily rederive the set of extended deformed Hulthén potentials, recently obtained by using the Darboux-Crum transformation, and to show that their spectra and normalized wavefunctions follow without any further calculation. Furthermore, by taking advantage of other known rational extensions of the Eckart potential obtained in first-order supersymmetric quantum mechanics, novel extensions of the deformed Hulthén potential are constructed, together with their bound-state spectra and wavefunctions. These new extensions belong to three different types, the first two being isospectral to some previously obtained extensions and the third one with an extra bound state below their spectrum.

Abundances in Stars from the Red Giant Branch Tip to Near the Main Sequence Turn Off in M71: III. Abundance Ratios

description: We present abundance ratios for 23 elements with respect to Fe in a sample of stars with a wide range in luminosity, from luminous giants to stars near the turnoff, in the globular cluster M71. The analyzed spectra, obtained with HIRES at the Keck Observatory, are of high dispersion (R=35,000). We find that the neutron capture, the iron peak and the alpha-element abundance ratios show no trend with Teff, and low scatter around the mean between the top of the RGB and near the main sequence turnoff. The alpha-elements Mg, Ca, Si and Ti are overabundant relative to Fe. The anti-correlation between O and Na abundances, observed in other metal poor globular clusters, is detected in our sample and extends to the main sequence. A statistically significant correlation between Al and Na abundances is observed among the M71 stars in our sample, extending to Mv = +1.8, fainter than the luminosity of the RGB bump in M5. Lithium is varying, as expected, and Zr may be varying from star to star as well. M71 appears to have abundance ratios very similar to M5 whose bright giants were studied by Ivans et al. (2001), but seems to have a smaller amplitude of star-to-star variations at a given luminosity, as might be expected from its higher metallicity. The results of our abundance analysis of 25 stars in M71 provide sufficient evidence of abundance variations at unexpectedly low luminosities to rule out the mixing scenario. Either alone or, even more powerfully, combined with other recent studies of C and N abundances in M71 stars, the existence of such abundance variations cannot be reproduced within the context of our current understanding of stellar evolution.

Surveys of Galaxy Clusters with the Sunyaev Zel'dovich Effect

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We have created mock Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect (SZE) surveys of galaxy clusters using high resolution N-body simulations. To the pure surveys we add `noise' contributions appropriate to instrument and primary CMB anisotropies. Applying various cluster finding strategies to these mock surveys we generate catalogues which can be compared to the known positions and masses of the clusters in the simulations. We thus show that the completeness and efficiency that can be achieved depend strongly on the frequency coverage, noise and beam characteristics of the instruments, as well as on the candidate threshold. We study the effects of matched filtering techniques on completeness, and bias. We suggest a gentler filtering method than matched filtering in single frequency analyses. We summarize the complications that arise when analyzing the SZE signal at a single frequency, and assess the limitations of such an analysis. Our results suggest that some sophistication is required when searching for `clusters' within an SZE map.

Mean-pairwise peculiar velocity in cosmological N-body simulations: time-variation, scale-dependence and stable condition
Creators: name: Fukushige, Toshiyuki
name: Suto, Yasushi
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We report on the detailed analysis of the mean-pairwise peculiar velocity profile in high-resolution cosmological N-body simulations ($N=8.8\times 10^6$ particles in a sphere of $50 \sim 200$Mpc radius). In particular we examine the validity and limitations of the stable condition which states that the mean {\it physical} separation of particle pairs is constant on small scales. We find a significant time-variation (irregular oscillatory behavior) of the mean-pairwise peculiar velocity in nonlinear regimes. We argue that this behavior is not due to any numerical artifact, but a natural consequence of the continuous merging processes in the hierarchical clustering universe. While such a time-variation is significant in a relatively local patch of the universe, the global average over a huge spatial volume $\simgt$(200Mpc)$^3$ does not reveal any {\it systematic} departure from the stable condition. Thus we conclude that the mean-pairwise peculiar velocity is rather unstable statistics but still satisfies the stable condition when averaged over the cosmological volume.

description: Direct and indirect pieces of observational evidence point to a strong connection between high-redshift quasars and their host galaxies. In the framework of a model where the shining of the quasar is the episode that stops the formation of the galactic spheroid inside a virialized halo, it has been proven possible to explain the submillimetre source counts together with their related statistics and the local luminosity function of spheroidal galaxies. The time delay between the virialization and the quasar manifestation required to fit the counts is short and incresing with decresing the host galaxy mass. In this paper we compute the detailed chemical evolution of gas and stars inside virialized haloes in the framework of the same model, taking into account the combined effects of cooling and stellar feedback. Under the assumption of negligible angular momentum, we are able to reproduce the main observed chemical properties of local ellipticals. In particular, by using the same duration of the bursts which are required in order to fit the submillimetre source counts, we recover the observed increase of the Mg/Fe ratio with galactic mass. Since for the most massive objects the assumed duration of the burst is Tburst < 0.6 Gyr, we end up with a picture for elliptical galaxy formation in which massive spheroids complete their assembly at early times, thus resembling a monolithic collapse, whereas smaller galaxies are allowed for a more prolonged star formation, thus allowing for a more complicated evolutionary history.

description: The MINiature Exoplanet Radial Velocity Array (MINERVA) is a dedicated observatory of four 0.7m robotic telescopes fiber-fed to a KiwiSpec spectrograph. The MINERVA mission is to discover super-Earths in the habitable zones of nearby stars. This can be accomplished with MINERVA's unique combination of high precision and high cadence over long time periods. In this work, we detail changes to the MINERVA facility that have occurred since our previous paper. We then describe MINERVA's robotic control software, the process by which we perform 1D spectral extraction, and our forward modeling Doppler pipeline. In the process of improving our forward modeling procedure, we found that our spectrograph's intrinsic instrumental profile is stable for at least nine months. Because of that, we characterized our instrumental profile with a time-independent, cubic spline function based on the profile in the cross dispersion direction, with which we achieved a radial velocity precision similar to using a conventional "sum-of-Gaussians" instrumental profile: 1.8 m s$^{-1}$ over 1.5 months on the RV standard star HD 122064. Therefore, we conclude that the instrumental profile need not be perfectly accurate as long as it is stable. In addition, we observed 51 Peg and our results are consistent with the literature, confirming our spectrograph and Doppler pipeline are producing accurate and precise radial velocities.

description: Linguistically diverse students have been historically marginalized in U.S. schools through biased language policies. The contentious focus on immigration in recent U.S. political history has raised concerns about the marginalization of immigrant families in and outside of schools. This article reports on one of a series of ethnographic case studies focused on issues of social justice and equity, born in the context of a school-university partnership (SUP) between a professional development school (PDS) and a research institution. This ongoing sensory ethnography centers around vexing issues concerning an English language learner population mainly comprised of Mexican immigrant families. The author uses sensory methods to amplify participants’ voices and raciolinguistics as a theoretical framework. Interviews, photography, observations, and a documentary analysis inform this work, while thematic analysis is used to treat data. Preliminary findings, anticipated implications, and possible future research goals of this continuing PDS research are presented.
Th Ages for Metal-Poor Stars

description: With a sample of 22 metal-poor stars, we demonstrate that the heavy element abundance pattern (Z > 55) is the same as the r-process contributions to the solar nebula. This bolsters the results of previous studies that there is a universal r-process production pattern. We use the abundance of thorium in five metal-poor stars, along with an estimate of the initial Th abundance based on the abundances of stable r-process elements, to measure their ages. We have four field red giants with errors of 4.2 Gyr in their ages and one M92 giant with an error of 5.6 Gyr, based on considering the sources of observational error only. We obtain an average age of 11.4 Gyr, which depends critically on the assumption of an initial production ratio of Th/Eu of 0.496. If the Universe is 15 Gyr old, then the initial Th/Eu value should be 0.590, in agreement with some theoretical models of the r-process.

To do this, we use a formalism of quantum histories, namely the Theory of Consistent Histories.

description: Advances in electronic technology have had a profound impact on the design and development of modern vehicle systems. These advances have provided the basis for a research into active vehicle control paradigm with the aim of improving vehicle safety and its dynamic performance. The vehicle stability control (VSC) concept has recently been born in response to such a research challenge. Its refinement is looking for an algorithm able of integrating vehicle dynamics control (IVDC) by way of coordinating the active front steering (AFS) system and direct yaw-moment control (DYC) system. Thus, when the vehicle is in the normal driving situation, the AFS system is involved for handling enhancement; however, as the vehicle reaches the handling limits, both the AFS and DYC systems are integrated to ensure the vehicle stability. Recent research into VSC has indicated that the IVDC concept may be able to enhance the handling and stability of ground vehicle by controlling the main two control objectives, yaw rate and body sideslip angle, effectively in severe cornering manoeuvres and the steady-state condition, and several control strategies have been investigated to design an IVDC system. However, most of these control methods have not been focused on improving the transient response for vehicle yaw rate and sideslip angle tracking controllers in the presence of vehicle dynamics uncertainties and external disturbance. Therefore, further improvement of the transient response for the tracking controllers is still the most needed research topics.

description: The effects of Aharonov-Casher (AC) and He-McKellar-Wilkens (HMW) phases on entangled spin-1/2 quantum systems are investigated. We use linear charge distributions positioned at the center of resulting closed orbits, capitalizing on Mach Zender-type interferometers modified with phase retarders to unveil the topological effects. We analyze how AC-HMW phases influence the Bell angles and maximal violation of Bell-CHSH inequalities (BI) without any classical interaction. We incorporate the spin and path of particles in the interferometers as observables to test noncontextual hidden variable theories against quantum mechanics, leveraging the non-local features of AC-HMW effects. Furthermore, we discuss potential implementations of our scheme in physical systems.

title: Gender Play in the Narrative Realm: Reimagining Gender in His Uncertain Skin
Creators: name: Fraser, Zoe
Publisher: name: Griffith University
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Gender play
subject: Binarism

description: This submission explores new ways in which writing can be received and experienced in attempting to destabilise gender binaries and traditional ways of ‘doing’ gender, in opening up the possibility of becoming other than what is limiting in prescribed gender modes, and in creative fashioning of the self. The project, a novella and accompanying exegesis, explores the concept of gender as an evolving art practice within the imaginative space of a narrative. It seeks to disrupt and reinvent traditional binaries and love stories, and reimagine how someone creates or authors themselves and the people around them, and how a character in fiction might undergo an unconventional kind of transformation, a continual becoming, one without a defined end point. The exegetical component interrogates my writing process, and documents the ways in which the novella changed shape and direction, in tandem with my reading of literary works and exploring theory related to the project. The creative component, His Uncertain Skin, shows these ideas in practice, as the narrative depicts a teenage boy who experiences gender dysphoria, is intensely dissatisfied with his prescribed gender, yet is unable to commit to an either/or existence, in transitioning to living as a girl.

description: An observation of Mrk 478 using the Chandra Low Energy Transmission Grating Spectrometer is presented. The source exhibited 30-40% flux variations on timescales of order 10000 s together with a slow decline in the spectral softness over the full 80 ks observation. The 0.15--3.0 keV spectrum is well fitted by a single power law with photon index of Gamma = 2.91 +/- 0.03. Combined with high energy data from BeppoSAX, the spectrum from 0.15 to 10 keV is well fit as the sum of two power laws with Gamma = 3.03 +/- 0.04, which dominates below 2 keV and 1.4 +/- 0.2, which dominates above 2 keV (quoting 90% confidence uncertainties). No significant emission or absorption features are detected in the high resolution spectrum, supporting our previous findings using the Extreme Ultraviolet Explorer but contradicting the claims of emission lines by Hwang & Bowyer (1997). There is no evidence of a warm absorber, as found in the high resolution spectra of many Sy 1 galaxies including others classified as narrow line Sy 1 galaxies such as Mrk 478. We suggest that the X-ray continuum may result from Comptonization of disk thermal emission in a hot corona through a range of optical depths.

Evolution of cosmological dark matter perturbations

description: We discuss the propagation of dark matter perturbations with non-zero velocity dispersion in cosmological models. In particular a non-zero massive neutrino component may well have a significant effect on the matter power spectrum and cosmic microwave background anisotropy. We present a covariant analysis of the evolution of a dark matter distribution via a two-dimensional momentum-integrated hierarchy of multipole equations. This can be expanded in the velocity weight to provide accurate approximate equations if the matter is non-relativistic, and we also perform an expansion in the mass to study the propagation of relativistic matter perturbations. We suggest an approximation to the exact hierarchy that can be used to calculate efficiently the effect of the massive neutrinos on the CMB power spectra. We implement the corresponding scalar mode equations numerically achieving a considerable reduction in computation time compared with previous approaches.

In ice radio detection of GZK neutrinos
Creators: name: Seckel, D.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Models for the source and propagation of cosmic rays are stressed by observations of cosmic rays with energies $E>10^{20}$ eV. A key discriminant between different models may be complementary observations of neutrinos with energies $E>10^{18}$ eV. Independent of the source of the cosmic rays, neutrinos are produced during propagation via the GZK mechanism. Event rates for GZK neutrinos are expected to be in the range of $0.01-0.1$ per km$^3$ yr, suggesting a detector mass in excess of 1 Eg. Detection of radio cherenkov emission from showers produced in Antarctic ice may be an economical way to instrument such a large mass. It is suggested that a 100 km$^2$ array of antennas centered on Icecube may allow confirmation of the radio technique and also increase the science achievable with Icecube by providing vertex information for events with throughgoing muons.

On the magnetic fields and particle acceleration in Cas A

Year: 2002

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We investigate the non-thermal X-ray emission from Cas A. For the hard X-ray continuum we test the model proposed by Laming, which invokes bremsstrahlung from electrons accelerated by lower hybrid plasma waves. The justification for this model comes from our determination of a lower limit to the average magnetic field of B > 0.5 mG, which suggest that most of the electron populations are too much affected by synchrotron losses to produce X-ray synchrotron emission. An exception is the X-ray emission from the rim surrounding Cas A, seen in Chandra continuum images. The width of this rim of 1.5" to 4", can be used to infer the magnetic field near the shock front, for which we estimate B = 0.08 - 0.16 mG, and electron energies of about 57 - 40 TeV. This is lower than the average magnetic field, but higher than what may be expected from shocked interstellar medium, suggesting a high pre-shock magnetic field, or rapid, post shock, field amplification. Combining the two magnetic field measurements we have constructed a simple two zone model. Most of the radio emission comes from inside Cas A, where the magnetic field is strong, whereas the inverse Compton emission comes from near the shock front. Only for our lower limit on the magnetic field strength near the shock front is it possible to explain the recent detection of TeV emission by HEGRA with inverse Compton, for which, in addition, we have to assume a rather high far infrared photon density that should be twice as high as our best estimate of roughly 70 cm^{-3}. Pion decay is therefore likely to be the dominant emission from Cas A at TeV energies.

Harbingers: Leveraging Feedforward to Support Ecological Consciousness
Creators: name: Herzog, Katherine
Publisher: name: Carnegie Mellon University
Year: 2019
Subjects: Design

description: Given the dire nature of recent climate projections, fundamental shifts in our patterns of thought and habitation are not only desirable, but necessary for our long-term sustainment on Earth. To this end, a multitude of approaches to “eco-feedback” have emerged in recent years, with interventions ranging from in-home energy meters to urban-scale art installations. However, most of these approaches aim only to expose existing patterns of behavior, failing to address the lack of ecological consciousness that underpins the “unsustainable” cycles of consumption and waste.
The ultimate goal of this study is not to claim a solution to the monumental task at hand, but to challenge the existing paradigm for delivering environmental data, propose alternate strategies for encouraging more “sustainable” modes of living, and elicit further questions about the ways in which technology might support us in living for the future.

description: In this review article we describe spin-dependent transport in materials with spin–orbit interaction of Rashba type. We mainly focus on semiconductor heterostructures, however we consider topological insulators, graphene and hybrid structures involving superconductors as well. We start from the Rashba Hamiltonian in a two dimensional electron gas and then describe transport properties of two- and quasi-one-dimensional systems. The problem of spin current generation and interference effects in mesoscopic devices is described in detail. We address also the role of Rashba interaction on localisation effects in lattices with nontrivial topology, as well as on the Ahronov–Casher effect in ring structures. A brief section, in the end, describes also some related topics including the spin-Hall effect, the transition from weak localisation to weak anti localisation and the physics of Majorana fermions in hybrid heterostructures involving Rashba materials in the presence of superconductivity.

description: We present a stacking analysis of 2.61 Msec of archival Chandra observations of stellar wind bow shocks. We place an upper limit on the X-ray luminosity of IR-detected bow shocks of $<2\times10^{29}$ erg s$^{-1}$, a more stringent constraint than has been found in previous archival studies and dedicated observing campaigns of nearby bow shocks. We compare the X-ray luminosities and $L_X/L_{\rm bol}$ ratios of bow shock driving stars to those of other OB stars within the Chandra field of view. Driving stars are, on average, of later spectral type than the "field of view" OB stars, and we do not observe any unambiguously high $L_X/L_{\rm bol}$ ratios indicative of magnetic stars in our sample. We additionally asses the feasibility of detecting X-rays from stellar wind bow shocks with the proposed Lynx X-ray Observatory. If the X-ray flux originating from the bow shocks is just below our Chandra detection limit, the nearest bow shock in our sample (at $\sim$0.4 kpc with an absorbing column of $\sim10^{21}$ cm$^{-2}$) should be observable with Lynx in exposure times on the order of $\sim$100 kiloseconds.

description: Perimedine labelled rhodamine dye 1 has been designed and synthesised. Metal ion binding studies of 1 have been performed in CH3CN/H2O (3:1, v/v, 10 mM Tris-HCl buffer, pH = 6.90). Compound 1 senses multiple metal ions such as Al3+, Fe3+ and Fe2+ by exhibiting turn on fluorescence and colour change (colourless to pink) under different experimental conditions. Concentration variation distinguishes Al3+ from Fe3+ ion. At low concentration (c = 1 x 10−4 M), only Al3+ ion can exhibit turn on fluorescence with sharp colour change. Sensing of Fe2+ ion through turn on fluorescence and colour change has been possible via in situ oxidation by following Fenton’s reaction.

description: We present an upper limit on the polarization of the Cosmic Microwave Background at 7 degree angular scales in the frequency band between 26 and 36 GHz, produced by the POLAR experiment. The campaign produced a map of linear polarization over the R.A. range 112 degrees - 275 degrees at declination 43degrees. The model-independent upper limit on the E-mode polarization component of the CMB at angular scales l = 2 - 20 is 10 microKelvin (95% confidence). The corresponding limit for the B-mode is also 10 microKelvin. Constraining the B-mode power to be zero, the 95% confidence limit on E-mode power alone is 8 microKelvin.

Possible Recovery of SN 1961V In Hubble Space Telescope Archival Images

description: SN 1961V in NGC 1058 was originally classified by Fritz Zwicky as a ``Type V'' supernova. However, it has been argued that SN 1961V was not a genuine supernova, but instead the superoutburst of an eta Carinae-like luminous blue variable star. In particular, Filippenko et al. (1995, AJ, 110, 2261) used pre-refurbishment HST WFPC images and the known radio position of SN 1961V to conclude that the star survived the eruption and is likely coincident with a V \~ 25.6 mag, V-I ~ 1.9 mag object. Recently, Stockdale et al. (2001, AJ, 122, 283) recovered the fading SN 1961V at radio wavelengths and argue that its behavior is similar that of some Type II supernovae. We have analyzed post-refurbishment archival HST WFPC2 data and find that the new radio position is still consistent with the Filippenko et al. object, which has not changed in brightness or color, but is also consistent with an adjacent, fainter (I ~ 24.3 mag) and very red (V-I > 1.0 mag) object. We suggest that this fainter object could be the survivor of SN 1961V. Forthcoming HST observations may settle this issue.
