title: A Comparison of Economic, Demographic and Social Characteristics of Migrants and Nonmigrants of a Given Age Cohort of Graduating Seniors of Star Valley High School, 1946, 1947
Creators: name: Anderson, Douglas D.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1975

description: The hypothesis that migration from rural areas of declining population is selective of young, well-educated, achievement-oriented persons was tested on a cohort of graduating seniors from Star Valley (Wyoming) High School.
The 132 living members of the senior classes of 1946 and 1947 served as the population of study. The cohort approach was used to control such variables as age, high school education, rural area of origin and socio- cultural background.
Members of the population were located in their current places of residence through a number of tracking methods including checking high school reunion lists, contacting relatives, high school officials, and friends, and scanning telephone directories. Of the 126 who were located, 96 returned a stamped self-addressed questionnaire administered by the researcher in time to be evaluated in this study.
Analysis of data contained in the questionnaire and records on file at Star Valley High School support hypothesized relationships at statistically significant levels. Young, high achieving (as measured by grade point averages and scores on the Ohio State Psychological Test) and well-educated members of the population left their rural community in response to better-paying, more plentiful and more satisfying job experiences elsewhere.

description: We consider the entanglement manipulation capabilities of the universal covariant quantum cloner or quantum processor circuit for quantum bits. We investigate its use for cloning a member of a bipartite or a genuine tripartite entangled state of quantum bits. We find that for bipartite pure entangled states a nontrivial behavior of concurrence appears, while for GHZ entangled states a possibility of the partial extraction of bipartite entanglement can be achieved.

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2023
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A semi-Markov process method for obtaining general counting statistics for open quantum systems is extended to the scenario of resetting. The simultaneous presence of random resets and wave function collapses means that the quantum jump trajectories are no longer semi-Markov. However, focusing on trajectories and using simple probability formulas, general counting statistics can still be constructed from reset-free statistics. An exact tilted matrix equation is also obtained. The inputs of these methods are the survival distributions and waiting-time density distributions instead of quantum operators. In addition, a continuous-time cloning algorithm is introduced to simulate the large-deviation properties of open quantum systems. Several quantum optics systems are used to demonstrate these results.

description: We investigate ground and excited state transport through small (d = 70 nm) graphene quantum dots. The successive spin filling of orbital states is detected by measuring the ground state energy as a function of a magnetic field. For a magnetic field in-plane of the quantum dot the Zemann splitting of spin states is measured. The results are compatible with a g-factor of 2 and we detect a spin-filling sequence for a series of states which is reasonable given the strength of exchange interaction effects expected for graphene.

description: The entanglement dynamics in a non-Hermitian quantum system is studied numerically and analyzed from the viewpoint of quasiparticle picture. As a concrete model, we consider a one-dimensional tight-binding model with asymmetric hopping (Hatano-Nelson model) under onsite disorder and nearest-neighbor interaction. As opposed to an assertion of previous studies, the entanglement dynamics in this non-Hermitian quantum system is very different from the one in its Hermitian counterpart, especially in the delocalized regime with weak disorder; there the entanglement entropy $S_{\rm ent}(t)$ shows a characteristic non-monotonic time evolution. We have clarified and quantified the nature of this behavior in the quasiparticle picture. In the asymptotic regime of $t\rightarrow\infty$, the entanglement entropy $S_{\rm ent}(t)$ in this regime saturates to a much suppressed value, which increases only logarithmically with respect to the size of the subsystem.

title: An Interregional Competition Study of Utah Agriculture Using the Linear Programming Technique
Creators: name: Andersen, Douglas Lee
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1975

description: The purposes of this paper were to inventory the available agricultural production resources in Utah, to determine how those resources could be allocated most efficiently, and to provide information to aid the crop and livestock producing sectors in Utah in making informed production and marketing decisions.
Utah was divided into eight agricultural production and product consumption regions and the rest of the country was regionalized into product supply and market areas. Input and output coefficients, production costs, and market prices for the major Utah crop and livestock production enterprises and their products were developed . A linear program was then used to determine how resources could most profitably be allocated among regions and production enterprises. The optimal marketing pattern for agricultural commodities produced in Utah was also generated. A sensitivity analysis was utilized to ascertain the stability of the optimal production and marketing patterns.

description: We present a theoretical study of dolerophanite Cu$_2$OSO$_4$, a layered kagome-like spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ magnetic insulator that can be described either as a system of chains coupled through dimers or as a kagome lattice where every third spin is replaced by a ferromagnetic spin dimer. Building on insights from ab initio calculations, classical numerical minimizations, and semiclassical expansions, we arrive at a minimal microscopic description that accounts for the experimental data reported so far, including the nature of the magnetic order, the reported spin length, and the observed anisotropy. The latter arises by a peculiar competition between the antisymmetric (Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya) and the symmetric part of the exchange anisotropy, which gives rise to a two-step re-orientation process involving two successive continuous phase transitions. Our work uncovers mechanisms stabilizing canted ferrimagnetic order in kagome systems, and highlights strong magnetic anisotropy in the presence if dissimilar magnetic orbitals on crystallographically nonequivalent Cu sites. We also show how these anisotropy terms affect the spin-wave spectrum and how they can be tracked experimentally.

description: We review recent progress in determining the effects of D-brane instantons in N=1 supersymmetric compactifications of Type II string theory to four dimensions. We describe the abstract D-brane instanton calculus for holomorphic couplings such as the superpotential, the gauge kinetic function and higher fermionic F-terms. This includes a discussion of multi-instanton effects and the implications of background fluxes for the instanton sector. Our presentation also highlights, but is not restricted to the computation of D-brane instanton effects in quiver gauge theories on D-branes at singularities. We then summarize the concrete consequences of stringy D-brane instantons for the construction of semi-realistic models of particle physics or SUSY-breaking in compact and non-compact geometries.

description: The purpose of this paper is to discover any trend developing in youth participation in junior livestock shows in Utah and to identify the factors which affect youth participation. Junior livestock show records and 4-H enrollment figures from Cache and Box Elder Counties and the State of Utah, were studied to obtain necessary statistical information. A survey was constructed and issued to former and present 4-H members. Economic theory was employed in order to compare the survey data and participation statistics. The paper is divided into three major parts: similarities and differences between the Cache and Box Elder County Fair Junior Livestock Shows, age group comparisons, and other comparisons, in that order.

Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1970

description: Economic development that increases per capita income and creates additional jobs through expansion of present businesses and/or introduction of new businesses and business income is the goal of planners in Cache, Rich , and Box Elder Counties . To help with this goal a Northern Utah study group was organized to gather data on quality, quantity, and use of human, social, physical, and economic resources. This thesis is part of the main study and only includes Cache County.
Input- output models are effective predicting tools. These tools are used in this analysis . To predict different output changes in the economy, final demand was adjusted four basic ways in the 1967 model. University and student spending were removed from final demand. For projections to 1980 final demand was increased by expanding university and student spending. Student spending was increased with university and other spending held constant. Another change was calculated to predict potential influence by changing final demand in each sector one percent one sector at a time.
Results indicate that for economic development, input-output analysis can be used. If demand could be increased, Utah State University could be an effective area to develop since it affects all 32 sectors producing in the county. No other industry or sector affects as many other sectors . In the model, if student population were increased 17 percent, business income in 1967 would have been increased by $2,162,000. If the university and the students were removed from the model in 1967 , business income would have decreased by an amount greater than $15 ,000,000. If the university spending increased 49 percent and student population increased 70 percent (projections to 1980) , business income would increase at least $10 , 000,000.

description: We demonstrate the feasibility of probing the charged lepton flavor violating decay $μ^{+}\!\!\rightarrow \!e^{+} X^{0}$ for the presence of a slow-moving neutral boson $X^{0}$ capable of undergoing gravitational binding to large structures, and as such able to participate in some cosmological scenarios. A short exposure to surface antimuons from beamline M20 at TRIUMF generates a branching ratio limit of $\lesssim 10^{-5}$. This is comparable or better than previous searches for this channel, although in a thus-far unexplored region of $X^{0}$ phase space very close to the kinematic limit of the decay. The future improved sensitivity of the method using a customized p-type point contact germanium detector is described.

description: We present a nonextensive version of the recently discussed QCD-based Nambu - Jona-Lasinio (NJL) model of many-body field theory describing behavior of strongly interacting matter. It is based on the nonextensive generalization of the Boltzmann-Gibbs (BG) statistical mechanics used in NJL model, which was taken in the form proposed by Tsallis and characterized by a dimensionless nonextensivity parameter q (for q -> 1 one recovers the usual BG case). This is a new phenomenological parameter of the model which accounts summarily for all possible (so far unspecified) effects leading to departure from the conditions required by the usual BG approach to be fully applicable. It turns out that temperature dependencies of chiral symmetry restoration, masses of pion and sigma meson and characteristic features of spinodal decomposition are sensitive to the departures from the usual BG case.

description: Relay selection for cooperative communications promises significant performance improvements, and is, therefore, attracting considerable attention. While several criteria have been proposed for selecting one or more relays, distributed mechanisms that perform the selection have received relatively less attention. In this paper, we develop a novel, yet simple, asymptotic analysis of a splitting-based multiple access selection algorithm to find the single best relay. The analysis leads to simpler and alternate expressions for the average number of slots required to find the best user. By introducing a new `contention load' parameter, the analysis shows that the parameter settings used in the existing literature can be improved upon. New and simple bounds are also derived. Furthermore, we propose a new algorithm that addresses the general problem of selecting the best $Q \ge 1$ relays, and analyze and optimize it. Even for a large number of relays, the algorithm selects the best two relays within 4.406 slots and the best three within 6.491 slots, on average. We also propose a new and simple scheme for the practically relevant case of discrete metrics. Altogether, our results develop a unifying perspective about the general problem of distributed selection in cooperative systems and several other multi-node systems.

title: Estimating the Rainfall-Runoff Characteristics of Selected Small Utah Watersheds
Creators: name: Walker, Clive H.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1970

description: Runoff and rainfall data have been taken from three high mountain Utah watersheds and subjected to runoff to rainfall comparisons. The resulting Q/P ratios have been compared to the average volumes of runoff curve numbers (CN) computed from this data for each watershed. Runoff curve numbers were also estimated on the basis of the soils and vegetation data available for the watersheds.
An attempt has been made t o estimate the watershed lag characteristics by computing synthetic hydrographs for successively larger values of time to peak estimates until the best fit comparison was achieved between the snythetic and the actual hydrographs. Time lag estimates were also made from the Kirpich method and the Mockus method.

Creators: name: Amechi Akwanya

Year: 2021
Subjects: Literature

description: Wole Soyinka’s Death and the King’s Horseman has been much discussed as a clash of tradition and modernity, with the Colonial District Officer, Mr Pilkings projecting British sensibilities as right reason itself, and can find nothing in him to rouse sympathy for the local people’s traditional culture in which the King’s Horseman is required to follow the king he serves in death. His sympathy towards them is the patronizing kind, which knows what is best for them, and would take the necessary steps to procure it for them, even against their strong opposition. However, despite the playwright himself suggesting that Mr Pilkings is a catalyser rather than a protagonist, he is clearly entangled as a participant in the relationships of struggle the drama unfolds, which comprise its internal driving force. The main struggle is of course between Elesin, the King’s Horseman, and Iyaloja, ‘Mother’ of the Market, and ‘mother of multitudes’, the one antagonist pushing the movement of change by default, not by intention, the other demanding total compliance with the cultural tradition. Iyaloja’s ‘cultural resistance’ burgeons with new and unchallengeable energy in the appearance of Olunde the Eleson’s son, and by metonymical substitution, the King’s faithful Horseman. It will be argued in this paper that the community had come to a threshold that would have led to a cultural revolution – as elaborated by Fredric Jameson – an abrupt and disorientating transition from one mode of production, one social practice to another. It remained only the successful withholding of sacrifice of a life. But the movement of change is interrupted by the almost magical appearance of Olunde.

We start with a given commutation relations between the operators of coordinates [x^{i},x^{j}]=ω^{ij}(x), and construct the complete algebra of commutation relations, including the operators of momenta. The constructed algebra is a deformation of a standard Heisenberg algebra and obey the Jacobi identity. The key point of our construction is a proposed first-order Lagrangian, which after quantization reproduces the desired commutation relations. Also we study the possibility to localize the noncommutativety.

Creators: name: Webster, Lewis G.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1970

description: As the railroad and mining industries brought non-Mormon settlers into the territory of Utah, a conflict developed which led to the creation of a separate system of education by the Protestant newcomers. Their purposes were to provide a quality education for their own children free from Harmon influence and to convert children of Mormon families. The Presbyterian Church led in the creation of graded schools from elementary, through secondary, and culminating in the Sheldon Jackson College in Salt Lake City.
As public schools were established, the mission schools were closed, except for Wasatch Academy in Mt. Pleasant and Sheldon Jackson College, renamed Westminster in 1902.
The First World War forced Westminster to limit its offerings to the first two years of college. In 1945, a four-year senior college program was introduced and the campus was enlarged. Affiliated with three Protestant denominations, Westminster continues to serve the needs or a changing society, a positive asset to Salt Lake City and its hinterland.
Fast and effortless computation of profile likelihoods using CONNECT

description: The frequentist method of profile likelihoods has recently received renewed attention in the field of cosmology. This is because the results of inferences based on the latter may differ from those of Bayesian inferences, either because of prior choices or because of non-Gaussianity in the likelihood function. Consequently, both methods are required for a fully nuanced analysis. However, in the last decades, cosmological parameter estimation has largely been dominated by Bayesian statistics due to the numerical complexity of constructing profile likelihoods, arising mainly from the need for a large number of gradient-free optimisations of the likelihood function.
 In this paper, we show how to accommodate the computational requirements of profile likelihoods using the publicly available neural network framework CONNECT together with a novel modification of the gradient-based $basin$-$hopping$ optimisation algorithm. Apart from the reduced evaluation time of the likelihood due to the neural network, we also achieve an additional speed-up of 1$-$2 orders of magnitude compared to profile likelihoods computed with the gradient-free method of $simulated$ $annealing$, with excellent agreement between the two. This allows for the production of typical triangle plots normally associated with Bayesian marginalisation within cosmology (and previously unachievable using likelihood maximisation because of the prohibitive computational cost). We have tested the setup on three cosmological models: the $Λ$CDM model, an extension with varying neutrino mass, and finally a decaying cold dark matter model. Given the default precision settings in CONNECT, we achieve a high precision in $χ^2$ with a difference to the results obtained by CLASS of $Δχ^2\approx0.2$ (and, importantly, without any bias in inferred parameter values) $-$ easily good enough for profile likelihood analyses.

description: We extend our study of the optimization of large baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO) surveys to return the best constraints on the dark energy, building on Paper I of this series (Parkinson et al. 2007). The survey galaxies are assumed to be pre-selected active, star-forming galaxies observed by their line emission with a constant number density across the redshift bin. Star-forming galaxies have a redshift desert in the region 1.6 < z < 2, and so this redshift range was excluded from the analysis. We use the Seo & Eisenstein (2007) fitting formula for the accuracies of the BAO measurements, using only the information for the oscillatory part of the power spectrum as distance and expansion rate rulers. We go beyond our earlier analysis by examining the effect of including curvature on the optimal survey configuration and updating the expected `prior' constraints from Planck and SDSS. We once again find that the optimal survey strategy involves minimizing the exposure time and maximizing the survey area (within the instrumental constraints), and that all time should be spent observing in the low-redshift range (z<1.6) rather than beyond the redshift desert, z>2. We find that when assuming a flat universe the optimal survey makes measurements in the redshift range 0.1 < z <0.7, but that including curvature as a nuisance parameter requires us to push the maximum redshift to 1.35, to remove the degeneracy between curvature and evolving dark energy. The inclusion of expected other data sets (such as WiggleZ, BOSS and a stage III SN-Ia survey) removes the necessity of measurements below redshift 0.9, and pushes the maximum redshift up to 1.5. We discuss considerations in determining the best survey strategy in light of uncertainty in the true underlying cosmological model.

Our prediction is well supported by the experimental implementation of the protocol in a \TMYAG crystal. We observe a net gain in efficiency from 10% to 17% by applying the optimized preparation procedure. In the perspective of high bandwidth storage, we investigate the protocol under different magnetic fields. We analyze the effect of the Zeeman and superhyperfine interaction.

description: In Papua New Guinea in the immediate aftermath of the 2002 national election, many of more than two million potential voters looked for ways to express their feelings of anger, disappointment, and frustration. With 43 political parties and 2785 candidates vying for 109 seats in parliament, some hitches were predictable. However, no one expected the extent of the chaos and intimidation that was experienced in many parts of Papua New Guinea during June and July 2002. After having spent 29 years in Papua New Guinea, I am well aware of how foolhardy it is to try to generalize about the situation in that country but on this occasion there was a pervasive sense that something had gone terribly wrong. On the first day of polling, the Prime Minister, Sir Mekere Morauta, having had to wait for nearly five hours to cast his vote, was reported as saying, “This is more than a bungle. Someone should be hung for this” (Post-Courier, 18 June:1). That was on 17 June and the situation subsequently deteriorated. The Prime Minister was fortunate. Bishop Arnold Orowae, Catholic bishop in Enga Province, lined up in Wabag to cast his vote only to find that his name did not appear on the electoral roll. He left without voting and with a feeling of having been disenfranchised. In Port Moresby, 90 students at the Don Bosco Technical College were registered so that their names would be on the Common Roll but on voting day only five of their names appeared. The other 85 students were left disappointed and angry. This was a common experience. In the Highlands, what Bill Standish has called “gunpoint” democracy was rife with presiding officers being forced to sign ballot papers while facing down the barrel of a gun (Standish 1996).1 The police were outnumbered and outgunned and the army had to be called in to try to bring about a semblance of order in some provinces such as Southern Highlands and Enga Provinces. This paper discusses the present-day political significance of Christianity and the churches in Papua New Guinea against the background of political unrest and confusion in which the 2002 election was conducted.

description: We suggest a new mean field method for studying the thermodynamic competition between magnetic and superconducting phases in a two-dimensional square lattice. A partition function is constructed by writing microscopic interactions that describe the exchange of density and spin-fluctuations. A block structure dictated by spin, time-reversal, and bipartite symmetries is imposed on the single-particle Hamiltonian. The detailed dynamics of the interactions are neglected and replaced by a normal distribution of random matrix elements. The resulting partition function can be calculated exactly. The thermodynamic potential has a structure which depends only on the spectrum of quasiparticles propagating in fixed condensation fields, with coupling constants that can be related directly to the variances of the microscopic processes. The resulting phase diagram reveals a fixed number of phase topologies whose realizations depend on a single coupling-parameter ratio, alpha. Most phase topologies are realized for a broad range of values of alpha and can thus be considered robust with respect to moderate variations in the detailed description of the underlying interactions.

Measurement of the $t\bar{t}$ cross section and its ratio to the $Z$ production cross section using $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13.6$ TeV with the ATLAS detector

description: The inclusive top-quark-pair production cross section $σ_{t\bar{t}}$ and its ratio to the $Z$-boson production cross section have been measured in proton--proton collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 13.6$ TeV, using 29 fb${}^{-1}$ of data collected in 2022 with the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. Using events with an opposite-charge electron-muon pair and $b$-tagged jets, and assuming Standard Model decays, the top-quark-pair production cross section is measured to be $σ_{t\bar{t}} = 850 \pm 3\mathrm{(stat.)}\pm 18\mathrm{(syst.)}\pm 20\mathrm{(lumi.)}$ pb. The ratio of the $t\bar{t}$ and the $Z$-boson production cross sections is also measured, where the $Z$-boson contribution is determined for inclusive $e^+e^-$ and $μ^+μ^-$ events in a fiducial phase space. The relative uncertainty on the ratio is reduced compared to the $t\bar{t}$ cross section, thanks to the cancellation of several systematic uncertainties. The result for the ratio, $R_{t\bar{t}/Z} = 1.145 \pm 0.003\mathrm{(stat.)}\pm 0.021\mathrm{(syst.)}\pm 0.002\mathrm{(lumi.)}$ is consistent with the Standard Model prediction using the PDF4LHC21 PDF set.

title: Adsorption-Desorption and Movement of Picloram (4-Amino-3,5,6-Trichloropicolinic Acid) in Soils
Creators: name: Duseja, Desh Raj
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1972

description: -Adsorption and desorption of picloram (4-amino-3,5,6-trichloropicolinic acid) in soils was studied utilizing both batch technique and soil columns. The five soils from the states of Utah and California ranged from 0.6 to 18.7 percent in organic matter content, 5 to 21 percent in sesquioxides and 6.45 to 7.55 in pH. In batch studies, the factors affecting picloram adsorption-desorption included time, soil type, organic matter, herbicide concentration, temperature, pH, and inorganic electrolytes. The soils adsorbed 10.8 to 58.2 percent of the added picloram from 0.05 to 10,0 ppm of picloram aqueous solutions. Adsorption was highly correlated with organic matter (r = 0.99), pH (r = - 0.98), and aesquioxides content (r = 0.96) of the soils, Adsorption was significantly correlated with cation exchange capacity of the soils at the 0.05 level. Equilibration time ranged from 4 to 120 hours. An increase in the temperature from 17.7 C to 25 C caused increased adsorptin; raising the temperature further resulted in a decrease in adsorption. The adsorption followed the Freundlich model, but not the Langmuir, Tempkin, or B.E.T. models. Adsorption was inversely related to induced pH changes from pH 3.6 to pH 9.2.
From 41.0 to 71.8 percent of the initially adsorbed picloram could be eluted with two successive extractions of deionized water from the three soils at 25 C. The desorption thereafter was slow.
No evidence was found of picloram precipitation with the addition of inorganic electrolytes in aqueous solutions without soil. Divalent inorganic cations were, generally, more effective in increasing adsorption than monovalent cations. Studies of the effect of CaCl2 concentrations (from 5 to 500 me/1) on picloram adsorption by four soils suggested an exchange type reaction, picloram acting as a cation. These interpretations were not conclusive.
Column studies with two of the soils, at 1.0 and 10.0 ppm picloram concentrations and in the natural state as well as after calcium saturation, corrobated the findings of batch studies; inorganic salts did impede picloram movement in soils, presumably by increasing picloram adsorption.
Applicability of a mathematical model, based on chromatographic theory, to predict picloram movement in two soils was tested. The model overestimated adsorption. However, when a lower retardation factor was used, the prediction was reasonable on the adsorption side of the herbicide distribution curve, but not the desorption side. This suggested that a distribution coefficient, based on its change with soil depth, may improve the predictability of the model.
title: Patrick Edward Connor and the Military District of Utah: Civil War Military Operations in Utah and Nevada, 1862-1865
Creators: name: McCarthy, Max Reynolds
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1975

description: Troops, requested by the federal government for the security during the Civil War of the overland mail, telegraph, and emigrant routes, were provided by California for those portions of the routes which crossed the territories of Utah and Nevada. A force, never exceeding 1,200 in strength, commanded by Patrick Edward Connor, was assigned a geographic responsibility, the Military District of Utah.
Connor's California Volunteers established principal troop locations at Fort Churchill and Fort Ruby in Nevada, and at Camp Douglas and Fort Bridger in Utah Territory during mid-1862. Major actions were conducted against the Indians at the battle of Bear River and by the campaign of Spanish Fork canyon, both in early 1863. Thereafter, a series of treaties achieved peace with various Indian tribes.
Connor also utilized his troops in a variety of activities peripheral to his primary military mission. Important examples were a colonization effort at Soda Springs, continued and thorough area reconnaissance, and early efforts to develop the territorial mineral resources.
Considerations of Mormon intentions, often believed by Connor to be inimical to Union interests, occupied much of Connor's time.
Many writers record a generally unfavorable impression of Connor in Utah. However, it is the view of this author that the missions assigned to the federal troops in the District of Utah during the Civil War were important and were effectively carried out.

description: Stars on eccentric orbits around a massive black hole (MBH) emit bursts of gravitational waves (GWs) at periapse. Such events may be directly resolvable in the Galactic centre. However, if the star does not spiral in, the emitted GWs are not resolvable for extra-galactic MBHs, but constitute a source of background noise. We estimate the power spectrum of this extreme mass ratio burst background (EMBB) and compare it to the anticipated instrumental noise of the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). To this end, we model the regions close to a MBH, accounting for mass-segregation, and for processes that limit the presence of stars close to the MBH, such as GW inspiral and hydrodynamical collisions between stars. We find that the EMBB is dominated by GW bursts from stellar mass black holes, and the magnitude of the noise spectrum (f S_GW)^{1/2} is at least a factor ~10 smaller than the instrumental noise. As an additional result of our analysis, we show that LISA is unlikely to detect relativistic bursts in the Galactic centre.

description: Genoomika kiire arengu käigus on selgunud, et selle valdkonna meetoditega ei ole võimalik erinevaid metabolismihäireid terviklikult kirjeldada ning täiendavalt on vaja kasutusele võtta teisi meetodeid rakuenergeetikast ning proteoomikast. Äärmiselt huvitavaks kujuneb selline süsteemsem käsitlus ulatuslike patoloogiliste muutustega maliigses koes. Eelmise sajandi alguses kirjeldas Otto Warburg efekti, kus tuumorirakkudes toimus eelistatult glükolüüs isegi normoksiatingimustes. Tema esmane arvamus, et just see asjaolu ongi raku maliigsuse allikas, lükati järgnevatel aastatel uute avastuste valguses ümber. Lisaks ulatuslikele rakuenergeetilistele ümberkorraldustele maliigse raku sees (nt kärbitud Krebsi-tsükkel, hingamisahela superkompleksid) on viimastel aastatel erinevate vähipaikmete juures korduvalt tõestatud ka kahe kompartmendi olemasolu, kus maliigne rakk allutab ümbritseva strooma enda jaoks vajalikke metaboliite tootma. Maliigsuse täpsem olemus, paremad ravimisihtmärgid ning -strateegiad võivad peituda just kasvajate süsteemsemate uuringute tulemustes.
