Iron precipitation and associated metal loss from simulated process solutions
Creators: name: Javed, Tasawar
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2017

description: Ferric iron precipitation is an important integral step of the hydrometallurgical processes. The precipitation product is often amorphous and leads to a significant amount of valuable metal loss to the residue along with residue disposal issues. Characterization of the leach residue samples from CESL and Vale medium temperature (150 °C) hydrometallurgical processes revealed that the precipitation of iron in the form of amorphous iron oxide phases results in approximately 2-4 times higher metal loss compared to the crystalline phases. To address the issue, simulated process solutions were used to study the effect of process parameters and their relative importance on batch precipitation conditions with the aim of obtaining a stable iron oxide phase i.e. hematite, while minimising associated metal loss to the precipitation product. It was found that the factors: initial ferric, H2SO4 and seed concentrations play an important role in the iron precipitation step. Mathematical models were developed for the iron precipitation and metal loss to the precipitates using statistical data analysis techniques. Results from this study show that the presence of low ferric or high acid concentrations and moderate amounts of seed are required to minimize metal loss to the precipitation product with moderate to high levels of iron precipitation. The supersaturation and the nucleation to growth ratios were found to determine the final product quality i.e. the particle size and associated metal loss. The presence of various anions or cations was also found to play an important role on the iron precipitation rate and product quality/nature. For example, the presence of chloride in the solution accelerated precipitation kinetics. The sulphate salts of the metals such as Mg and Cu increased the extent of precipitation, while aluminum sulphate decreased the extent of precipitation. Presence of the sodium ion in the system accelerated the precipitation kinetics but changed the nature of the product to sodium jarosite. The presence of low levels of arsenic (As:Fe ≤ 0.08) in the system were found to severely retard the precipitation rate. Adsorption of sulphate and incorporation of OH‒ into the hematite structure were responsible to produce a poorly crystalline hematite product.

description: Background: Simulation-based education is a teaching and learning approach that can enhance learning experiences for students on healthcare programmes. Within undergraduate nursing and midwifery education, simulation can support students in developing graduate attributes necessary to become practice-ready professionals. This paper reports on the evaluation of a simulation-based education initiative, which was introduced to support fnal year undergraduate nursing and midwifery students in preparation for their upcoming clinical internship in practice. Methods: This study aimed to evaluate a simulation-based education initiative from the perspectives of fnal year undergraduate nursing and midwifery students (N= 95). An online survey, using the validated Simulation Efectiveness Tool – Modifed (SET-M), was distributed to fnal year nursing and midwifery students at one university in Ireland. This study was conducted and reported in line with the Consensus-Based Checklist for Reporting of Survey Studies (CROSS). Results: The results of the study highlight fnal year nursing and midwifery students’ perceptions, experiences, and satisfaction with learning in a simulated environment. Students reported their simulation-based learning experiences as worthwhile, motivating, and as important opportunities to build on previous learning, increase confdence and gain experience in preparation for real-life practice. Students reported feeling more confdent in their assessment skills, in providing care and interventions in responding to changes in a person’s health status. All students reported that the simulation-based learning experiences enabled them to think more critically about the clinical case scenarios and critically question their actions and decision-making processes. Pre-briefng and debriefng sessions were highlighted as important aspects of the simulation which helped to increase student confdence and cultivate meaningful learning. Conclusion: Simulation-based education is a valuable teaching and learning modality, particularly for fnal year students who are transitioning to real-life clinical practice. Student-centred simulation-based learning experiences can cultivate professional development and support learners in their transition from university student to healthcare professional.

description: We map the radial and azimuthal distribution of Mg II gas within 200 kpc (physical) of 4000 galaxies at redshifts 0.5 < z < 0.9 using co-added spectra of more than 5000 background galaxies at z > 1. We investigate the variation of Mg II rest frame equivalent width as a function of the radial impact parameter for different subsets of foreground galaxies selected in terms of their rest-frame colors and masses. Blue galaxies have a significantly higher average Mg II equivalent width at close galactocentric radii as compared to the red galaxies. Amongst the blue galaxies, there is a correlation between Mg II equivalent width and galactic stellar mass of the host galaxy. We also find that the distribution of Mg II absorption around group galaxies is more extended than that for non-group galaxies, and that groups as a whole have more extended radial profiles than individual galaxies. Interestingly, these effects can be satisfactorily modeled by a simple superposition of the absorption profiles of individual member galaxies, assuming that these are the same as those of non-group galaxies, suggesting that the group environment may not significantly enhance or diminish the Mg II absorption of individual galaxies. We show that there is a strong azimuthal dependence of the Mg II absorption within 50 kpc of inclined disk-dominated galaxies, indicating the presence of a strongly bipolar outflow aligned along the disk rotation axis. There is no significant dependence of Mg II absorption on the apparent inclination angle of disk-dominated galaxies.

Non-holomorphic Modular Forms and SL(2,R)/U(1) Superconformal Field Theory

description: We study the torus partition function of the SL(2,R)/U(1) SUSY gauged WZW model coupled to N=2 U(1) current. Starting from the path-integral formulation of the theory, we introduce an infra-red regularization which preserves good modular properties and discuss the decomposition of the partition function in terms of the N=2 characters of discrete (BPS) and continuous (non-BPS) representations. Contrary to our naive expectation, we find a non-holomorphic dependence (dependence on \barτ) in the expansion coefficients of continuous representations. This non-holomorphicity appears in such a way that the anomalous modular behaviors of the discrete (BPS) characters are compensated by the transformation law of the non-holomorphic coefficients of the continuous (non-BPS) characters. Discrete characters together with the non-holomorphic continuous characters combine into real analytic Jacobi forms and these combinations exactly agree with the "modular completion" of discrete characters known in the theory of Mock theta functions \cite{Zwegers}. We consider this to be a general phenomenon: we expect to encounter "holomorphic anomaly" (\barτ-dependence) in string partition function on non-compact target manifolds. The anomaly occurs due to the incompatibility of holomorphy and modular invariance of the theory. Appearance of non-holomorphicity in SL(2,R)/U(1) elliptic genus has recently been observed by Troost \cite{Troost}.

Effects of middle ear pressure compensation on evoked otoacoustic emissions and power absorbance in adults
Creators: name: Riddler, Rae Jean
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2017

description: This study investigated the impact of positive and negative middle ear pressure (MEP) on evoked otoacoustic emissions (EOAEs) both distortion-product OAEs (1.5 to 8 kHz) and transient evoked OAEs (1 to 5 kHz), as well as wideband acoustic immittance measures of power absorbance (PA) in a normal-hearing young adult population between the ages of 18 and 35. The effectiveness was evaluated, of testing at ambient compared to a compensated pressure level corresponding to participants’ tympanic peak pressure. Outcome measures were analyzed considering factors of gender, ethnicity, frequency, and MEP magnitude. For each participant, testing was conducted at a natural state MEP and at a MEP level induced by either the Toynbee or Valsalva maneuver. Titan Suite by Interacoustics was used to collect all measures and is the only commercially available system for assessing EOAEs at a compensated pressure level. One-hundred and four participants (67 female and 37 male, providing 208 ears) were recruited for testing. EOAE absolute amplitude and PA varied significantly as a function of test frequency and across test pressure conditions. Significant differences in PA and EOAE measures were observed between gender and ethnic groups. Mean PA magnitude at frequencies ≤4 kHz was significantly greater testing at peak compared to the ambient pressure in the presence of MEP deviating from 0 daPa. EOAE amplitude was similar between the post-maneuver (induced MEP) condition and baseline measures when assessed at peak pressure. Frequency-dependent changes in PA magnitude with alterations in MEP and ear canal pressure were linked to frequency-dependent changes in EOAE amplitude. Results of this study suggest clinical benefit for a more accurate assessment of middle ear status and cochlear integrity for patients with abnormal MEP when EOAE are assessed at a compensated pressure level. This study provided a database of PA measures over a range of MEPs measured at both ambient and tympanic peak pressure.

description: We discuss a correspondence between certain contact pairs on the one hand, and certain locally conformally symplectic forms on the other. In particular, we characterize these structures through suspensions of contactomorphisms. If the contact pair is endowed with a normal metric, then the corresponding lcs form is locally conformally Kaehler, and, in fact, Vaisman. This leads to classification results for normal metric contact pairs. In complex dimension two we obtain a new proof of Belgun's classification of Vaisman manifolds under the additional assumption that the Kodaira dimension is non-negative. We also produce many examples of manifolds admitting locally conformally symplectic structures but no locally conformally Kaehler ones.

The group akin to the thin disk is traced by stars with [Fe/H]>-0.7 and alpha/Fe<0.2. The thick disk-like group overlaps the thin disk in [Fe/H] but has higher abundances of alpha elements and Eu.

description: We investigate theoretically the dynamical behavior of a qubit obtained with the two ground eigenstates of an ultrastrong coupling circuit-QED system consisting of a finite number of Josephson fluxonium atoms inductively coupled to a transmission line resonator. We show an universal set of quantum gates by using multiple transmission line resonators (each resonator represents a single qubit). We discuss the intrinsic 'anisotropic' nature of noise sources for fluxonium artificial atoms. Through a master equation treatment with colored noise and manylevel dynamics, we prove that, for a general class of anisotropic noise sources, the coherence time of the qubit and the fidelity of the quantum operations can be dramatically improved in an optimal regime of ultrastrong coupling, where the ground state is an entangled photonic 'cat' state.

The class of countably based domains gives a computability theory for possibly non-countably based topological spaces. A $ qcb_{0} $ space is a topological space characterized by its strong representability over domains. In this paper, we study strictly positive inductive definitions for $ qcb_{0} $ spaces by means of domain representations, i.e. we show that there exists a canonical fixed point of every strictly positive operation on $qcb_{0} $ spaces.

The diverse chemistry of some tungsten nitrosyl complexes
Creators: name: Fabulyak, Diana
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: The η⁵-C₅H₄iPr ligand imparts unprecedented effects on the physical and chemical properties of (η⁵-C₅H₄iPr)W(NO)(CH₂CMe₃)(η³-CH₂CHCMe₂) (2.3) and its precursors. Specifically, the reaction of (η⁵-C₅H₄iPr)W(NO)(CO)₂ (2.1) with PCl₅ results in the formation of the PCl₃ adduct of the (η⁵-C₅H₄iPr)W(NO)Cl₂ complex. Moreover, the subsequent metathesis reaction with the Mg(CH₂CH=CMe₂)₂ binary reagent occurs at the P-Cl bond of the adduct affording (η⁵-C₅H₄iPr)W(NO)(PCl₂CMe₂CH=CH₂)Cl₂ (2.4). The investigation of the unique effects of the η⁵-C₅H₄iPr ligand on the chemistry of tungsten-nitrosyl complexes has been extended to encompass (η⁵-C₅H₄iPr)W(NO)(H)(η³-CH₂CHCMe₂) (3.1), (η⁵-C₅H₄iPr)W(NO)(CH₂CMe₃)₂ (3.7), and trans-(η⁵-C₅H₄iPr)W(NO)(H)(κ²-PPh₂C₆H₄) (3.9). Results of these studies are summarized in following paragraphs. Trapping reactions of the coordinatively unsaturated reactive intermediates, formed via intramolecular isomerization of 3.1, using PMe₃ show a preferential isomerization to the η¹ intermediate (η⁵-C₅H₄iPr)W(NO)(H)(η¹-CH₂CH=CMe₂), isolable as its PMe₃ adduct. Increasing the temperature facilitates the intramolecular rearrangement to the desired η²-alkene intermediate, but due to the thermal instability of the starting material, the C-H activation of alkanes cannot be carried out at very high temperatures. The reaction of 3.7 with H₂ and PPh₃ shows instantaneous cis to trans isomerization of the generated ortho-metallated complex to form an inert trans-(η⁵-C₅H₄iPr)W(NO)(H)(κ²-PPh₂C₆H₄) (3.9). In this case, the faster rate of cis to trans isomerization hinders the C-H activation potential of the ortho-metallated product. In addition, results of the investigation of the multiple C-H activation chemistry of (η5-C5Me5)W(NO)(CH₂CMe₃)2 (4.1) are presented. Thermolysis of 4.1 in neat hydrocarbons results in elimination of neopentane and formation of the transient (η⁵-C₅Me₅)W(NO)(=CHCMe₃) complex, which subsequently effects the multiple C-H activations of linear n-alkanes. The corresponding (η⁵-C₅Me₅)W(NO)(H)(η³-allyl) complexes obtained from the reactions with various n-alkanes have been isolated and characterized. These thermolysis reactions are accompanied by the generation of alkenes. Attempts to improve the production of olefins by varying different experimental factors have been investigated. The preliminary results of the investigation of the C-C coupling reactivity of (η⁵-C₅Me₅)W(NO)(H)(η³-allyl) complexes with aldehydes and phenylacetylene are presented. Thermolysis reactions of (η⁵-C₅Me₅)W(NO)(H)(η³-allyl) complexes with aldehydes under aerobic conditions result in the formation of the corresponding coupled alcohol product. Also, thermolysis reactions of (η⁵-C₅Me₅)W(NO)(H)(η³-CH₂CHCMe₂) with phenylacetylene reveal incorporation of phenylacetylene molecules into the (η⁵-C₅Me₅)W(NO) and (η⁵-C₅Me₅)W(NO)(H)(η³-CH₂CHCMe₂) fragments.

description: We introduce from an experimental point of view the main concepts of fluctuation theorems for work, heat and entropy production in out of equilibrium systems. We will discuss the important difference between the applications of these concepts to stochastic systems and to a second class of systems (chaotic systems) where the fluctuations are induced either by chaotic flows or by fluctuating driving forces. We will mainly analyze the stochastic systems using the measurements performed in two experiments : a) a harmonic oscillator driven out of equilibrium by an external force b) a colloidal particle trapped in a time dependent double well potential. We will rapidly describe some consequences of fluctuation theorems and some useful applications to the analysis of experimental data. As an example the case of a molecular motor will be analyzed in some details. Finally we will discuss the problems related to the applications of fluctuation theorems to chaotic systems.

description: We experimentally verify uncertainty relations for mixed states in the tomographic representation by measuring the radiation field tomograms, i.e. homodyne distributions. Thermal states of single-mode radiation field are discussed in details as paradigm of mixed quantum state. By considering the connection between generalised uncertainty relations and optical tomograms is seen that the purity of the states can be retrieved by statistical analysis of the homodyne data. The purity parameter assumes a relevant role in quantum information where the effective fidelities of protocols depend critically on the purity of the information carrier states. In this contest the homodyne detector becomes an easy to handle purity-meter for the state on-line with a running quantum information protocol.

description: A distinguishing feature of Dirac fermions is the Berry phase of $π$ associated with their cyclotron motions. Since this Berry phase can be experimentally assessed by analyzing the Landau-level fan diagram of the Shubnikov-de Haas (SdH) oscillations, such an analysis is widely employed in recent transport studies of topological insulators to elucidate the Dirac nature of the surface states. However, the reported results have usually been unconvincing. Here we show a general scheme for describing the phase factor of the SdH oscillations in realistic surface states of topological insulators, and demonstrate how one could elucidate the Dirac nature in the real experimental data.

Single Higgs-boson production at a photon-photon collider: general 2HDM versus MSSM

description: We revisit the production of a single Higgs boson from direct γγ-scattering at a photon collider. We compute the total cross section σ(γγ\to h) (for h=h0, H0, A0), and the strength of the effective g_{h γγ} coupling normalized to the Standard Model (SM), for both the general Two-Higgs-Doublet Model (2HDM) and the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM). In both cases the predicted production rates for the CP-even (odd) states render up to 10^4 (10^3) events per 500 \invfb of integrated luminosity, in full consistency with all the theoretical and phenomenological constraints. Depending on the channel the maximum rates can be larger or smaller than the SM expectations, but in most of the parameter space they should be well measurable. We analyze how these departures depend on the dynamics underlying each of the models, supersymmetric and non-supersymmetric, and highlight the possible distinctive phenomenological signatures. We demonstrate that this process could be extremely helpful to discern non-supersymmetric Higgs bosons from supersymmetric ones. Furthermore, in the MSSM case, we show that γγ-physics could decisively help to overcome the serious impasse afflicting Higgs boson physics at the infamous "LHC wedge".

description: We review here some universal aspects of the physics of two-electron molecular transistors in the absence of strong spin-orbit effects. Several recent quantum dots experiments have shown that an electrostatic backgate could be used to control the energy dispersion of magnetic levels. We discuss how the generically asymmetric coupling of the metallic contacts to two different molecular orbitals can indeed lead to a gate-tunable Hund's rule in the presence of singlet and triplet states in the quantum dot. For gate voltages such that the singlet constitutes the (non-magnetic) ground state, one generally observes a suppression of low voltage transport, which can yet be restored in the form of enhanced cotunneling features at finite bias. More interestingly, when the gate voltage is controlled to obtain the triplet configuration, spin S=1 Kondo anomalies appear at zero-bias, with non-Fermi liquid features related to the underscreening of a spin larger than 1/2. Finally, the small bare singlet-triplet splitting in our device allows to fine-tune with the gate between these two magnetic configurations, leading to an unscreening quantum phase transition. This transition occurs between the non-magnetic singlet phase, where a two-stage Kondo effect occurs, and the triplet phase, where the partially compensated (underscreened) moment is akin to a magnetically "ordered" state. These observations are put theoretically into a consistent global picture by using new Numerical Renormalization Group simulations, taylored to capture sharp finie-voltage cotunneling features within the Coulomb diamonds, together with complementary out-of-equilibrium diagrammatic calculations on the two-orbital Anderson model. This work should shed further light on the complicated puzzle still raised by multi-orbital extensions of the classic Kondo problem.

description: Using hyperbolic temporal and spatial cut-offs to define 4d asymptotically flat spacetimes, we show that supertranslation ambiguities in the asymptotic fields can all be removed even in the presence of gravitational magnetic charges. We then show that configurations with different electric and magnetic four-momenta can be consistently considered in the Mann-Marolf variational principle. This generalizes the previous result where variations over asymptotically flat configurations with fixed magnetic four-momenta were considered. We also express Kerr Taub-NUT metric to the leading and next to leading order in the Beig-Schmidt form, and compare the asymptotic form with the tensor harmonics on 3d de Sitter space.

Soft X-ray reflectometry and X-ray absorption spectroscopy of transition metal oxide thin-films on various substrates: cobaltate (CoO) and lanthanum cobaltate (LaCoO₃)

description: The newly developed Soft X-ray Reflectometry (SXR) has been used to study the electronic structure of Transition Metal Oxide (TMO) thin-films. The technique is non-destructive, element specific and depth sensitive. The experiments were carried out in the newly installed Resonant Soft X-ray Scattering (RSXS) endstation of the 10ID-2 beamline, the Canadian Light Source (CLS). Simulating and fitting the data required a special home-written software “ReMagX” . X-ray Absorption Spectroscopy (XAS) was measured in Total Fluorescence Yield (TFY) and Total Electron Yield (TEY), followed by on- and off-Resonant Soft X-ray Reflectometry (RSXR) at constant energy and at fixed momentum transfer vector in the z-direction (fixed Qz). The needed samples for the current research were readily available through research collaborators. CoO thin-films were grown with Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) on MgO substrate as an example of compressive strain. The LaCoO₃ thin-films were grown with Pulsed Laser Deposition (PLD), with or without a LaAlO₃ cap, on LaAlO₃, NdGaO₃ or SrTiO₃ substrates as examples of compressive and tensile strain. TEY analysis of the CoO on MgO sample indicates a reduction of symmetry from cubic octahedral to distorted tetragonal with the crystal compressed in the xy plane. The surface contamination layer appears as a distinctive feature in the measured reflectivities. The uncapped LaCoO₃ thin-films show distinctive reconstructed surfaces with more pronounced densities of Co²+ that are energy-feasible ways of compensating the polar surface. The change in the LaCoO₃ on SrTiO₃+ sample results in vertical stripes which are believed to have Co ions in mixed valencies and spin-states and were discussed in two models. The samples have been modeled in ReMagX and the measured TEY signals have been used to generate the needed refractive indices and atomic scattering factors.

description: We present and analyze new exact gyraton solutions of algebraic type II on a background which is static, cylindrically symmetric Melvin universe of type D. For a vanishing electromagnetic field it reduces to previously studied gyratons on Minkowski background. We demonstrate that the solutions are member of a more general family of the Kundt spacetimes. We show that the Einstein equations reduce to a set of mostly linear equations on a transverse 2-space and we discuss the properties of polynomial scalar curvature invariants which are generally non-constant but unaffected by the presence of gyratons.

description: Broadband multimode squeezers constitute a powerful quantum resource with promising potential for different applications in quantum information technologies such as information coding in quantum communication networks or quantum simulations in higher dimensional systems. However, the characterization of a large array of squeezers that coexist in a single spatial mode is challenging. In this paper we address this problem and propose a straightforward method to determine the number of squeezers and their respective squeezing strengths by using broadband multimode correlation function measurements. These measurements employ the large detection windows of state of the art avalanche photodiodes to simultaneously probe the full Hilbert space of the generated state, which enables us to benchmark the squeezed states. Moreover, due to the structure of correlation functions, our measurements are not affected by losses. This is a significant advantage, since detectors with low efficiencies are sufficient. Our approach is less costly than full state tomography methods relying on multimode homodyne detection which build on much more demanding measurement and analysis tools and appear to be impractical for large Hilbert spaces.
