description: Emulsion gel (emulgel) technology has proven to be one of the viable options for designing delivery systems for drugs and probiotics. Such formulations are quite stable as compared to emulsions but possess all the advantages of the biphasic formulations. In our research study, we have developed a series of emulgels using cocoa butter as the fat phase and whey protein isolate (WPI) solution as the aqueous phase for designing efficient delivery systems. The prepared emulgel was characterized by microscopy, XRD, FTIR, mechanical, and electrical analyses. The aqueous phase was present as globular structures which were dispersed uniformly throughout the fat matrix. There was a change in the crystal habit due to hydrogen bonding which ultimately resulted in the alteration in the crystallinity index, viscoelastic and thermal properties of the formulations. An increase in the WPI solution consequently resulted in the decrease in the impedance of the emulgels. The WPI containing emulgels showed better drug diffusion and probiotics viability as compared to the cocoa butter only formulation (control).

description: We present a general formalism to treat slowly rotating general relativistic superfluid neutron stars. As a first approximation, their matter content can be described in terms of a two-fluid model, where one fluid is the neutron superfluid, which is believed to exist in the core and inner crust of mature neutron stars, and the other fluid represents a conglomerate of all other constituents (crust nuclei, protons, electrons, etc.). We obtain a system of equations, good to second-order in the rotational velocities, that determines the metric and the matter variables, irrespective of the equation of state for the two fluids. In particular, allowance is made for the so-called entrainment effect, whereby the momentum of one constituent (e.g. the neutrons) carries along part of the mass of the other constituent. As an illustration of the developed framework, we consider a simplified equation of state for which the two fluids are described by different polytropes. We determine numerically the effects of the two fluids on the rotational frame-dragging, the induced changes in the neutron and proton densities and the inertial mass, as well as the change in shape of the star. We further discuss issues regarding conservation of the two baryon numbers, the mass-shedding (Kepler) limit and chemical equilibrium.

description: Multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) antennas performance can be degraded due to the poor isolation between the MIMO antenna elements. In this paper a review of the different isolation enhancement schemes available in the literature is presented. Empirically the isolation between the antennas can be improved by placing the antenna as far as possible and it can be enhanced further by introducing different isolation enhancement schemes. Theory of characteristic modes (TCM) was recently proposed that had useful benefits. TCM was also used to enhance the isolation. This papers will also focus on the different approaches of TCM, to enhance the isolation.

description: Solar Wind Charge-Exchange (SWCX) emission is present in every X-ray observation of an astrophysical object. The emission is problematic when one cannot remove the foreground by the simultaneous measurement of a nearby field. SWCX emission is a serious impediment to the study of the diffuse hot ISM, including the Galactic halo, as its contribution to diagnostic emission lines is temporally variable. Modeling the SWCX emission, in order to remove it from our observations, has proven to be more difficult than originally anticipated. This work reviews our current understanding of SWCX emission, with special attention to all of the components required for future modeling tools. Since, in the absence of such a tool, observing programs can still be constructed to minimize the effect of SWCX, mitigation strategies are discussed. Although some aspects of SWCX will be very difficult to characterize, progress continues on many fronts.

description: Form factors are calculated in the point form of relativistic quantum mechanics for the lowest energy states of a system made of two scalar particles interacting via the exchange of a massless boson. They are compared to the exact results obtained by using solutions of the Bethe-Salpeter equation which are well known in this case (Wick-Cutkosky model). Deficiencies of the point-form approach together with the single-particle current are emphasised. They point to the contribution of two-body currents which are required in any case to fulfil current conservation.

description: Plasmonic metamaterials and metasurfaces offer new opportunities in developing high performance terahertz emitters and detectors beyond the limitations of conventional nonlinear materials. However, simple meta-atoms for second-order nonlinear applications encounter fundamental trade-offs in the necessary symmetry breaking and local-field enhancement due to radiation damping that is inherent to the operating resonant mode and cannot be controlled separately. Here we present a novel concept that eliminates this restriction obstructing the improvement of terahertz generation efficiency in nonlinear metasurfaces based on metallic nanoresonators. This is achieved by combining a resonant dark-state metasurface, which locally drives nonlinear nanoresonators in the near field, with a specific spatial symmetry that enables destructive interference of the radiating linear moments of the nanoresonators, and perfect absorption via simultaneous electric and magnetic critical coupling of the pump radiation to the dark mode. Our proposal allows eliminating linear radiation damping, while maintaining constructive interference and effective radiation of the nonlinear components. We numerically demonstrate a giant second-order nonlinear susceptibility around Hundred-Billionth m/V, a one order improvement compared with the previously reported split-ring-resonator metasurface, and correspondingly, a 2 orders of magnitude enhanced terahertz energy extraction should be expected with our configuration under the same conditions. Our study offers a paradigm of high efficiency tunable nonlinear metadevices and paves the way to revolutionary terahertz technologies and optoelectronic nanocircuitry.

description: In this study we provide the analysis of eye movement behavior elicited by low-level feature distinctiveness with a dataset of synthetically-generated image patterns. Design of visual stimuli was inspired by the ones used in previous psychophysical experiments, namely in free-viewing and visual searching tasks, to provide a total of 15 types of stimuli, divided according to the task and feature to be analyzed. Our interest is to analyze the influences of low-level feature contrast between a salient region and the rest of distractors, providing fixation localization characteristics and reaction time of landing inside the salient region. Eye-tracking data was collected from 34 participants during the viewing of a 230 images dataset. Results show that saliency is predominantly and distinctively influenced by: 1. feature type, 2. feature contrast, 3. temporality of fixations, 4. task difficulty and 5. center bias. This experimentation proposes a new psychophysical basis for saliency model evaluation using synthetic images.

description: We study weak localization effects in the ballistic regime as induced by man-made scatterers. Specular reflection of the electrons off these scatterers results into backscattered trajectories which interfere with their time-reversed path resulting in weak localization corrections to the resistance. Using a semi-classical theory, we calculate the change in resistance due to these backscattered trajectories. We found that the inclusion of the exact shape of the scatterers is very important in order to explain the experimental results of Katine et al. [Superlattices and Microstructures 20, 337 (1996)].

description: An increase in development on many of the Gulf Islands, coupled with changing precipitation patterns due to an altered climate, has led to increased pressures on fresh water resources from already highly vulnerable island aquifers. With a growing demand for the existing and increasingly scarce water resources available, an increase to density on each island in the Islands Trust Area is emerging as the number one concern and priority for the land use authority vis-à-vis subdivision regulations, and affordable housing opportunities. Overlapping regional jurisdictions create further regulatory challenges to this issue. Regional Districts, Islands Trust, and Island Health (the regional health authority for Vancouver Island and the Gulf Islands area), for example, all have various roles to play in a complex governance structure under the auspices of the province of British Columbia (BC). In the interest of ensuring access to a reliable supply of fresh water into the future, a collaborative and cross-jurisdictional policy approach is needed in order to address alternatives to the increased extraction of water from identified vulnerable aquifers in the region. Rainwater harvesting (RWH) could be part of the solution to this issue. This paper explores the framework of statute, policy, regulation, governing RWH in the Islands Trust Area to better understand whether barriers or gaps exist in the overall regulatory ecosystem that could be addressed in order to better facilitate the implementation of RWH as part of climate change adaptation efforts.

description: In modern election campaigns, political parties utilize social media to advertise their policies and candidates and to communicate to the electorate. In Japan's latest general election in 2017, the 48th general election for the Lower House, social media, especially Twitter, was actively used. In this paper, we analyze the users who retweeted tweets of political parties on Twitter during the election. Our aim is to clarify what kinds of users are diffusing (retweeting) tweets of political parties. The results indicate that the characteristics of retweeters of the largest ruling party (Liberal Democratic Party of Japan) and the largest opposition party (The Constitutional Democratic Party of Japan) were similar, even though the retweeters did not overlap each other. We also found that a particular opposition party (Japanese Communist Party) had quite different characteristics from other political parties.

description: The theory of gravitational anti-screening, which has previously been applied to various astronomical observations as an alternative to dark matter, is now applied to the solar system. The effect that gravitational anti-screening has on the precession rate of the planets will be determined and compared to current observations. In addition, the effect that gravitational anti-screening will have on certain orbital parameters of long-period comets will be determined. The set of 119 long-period comets that are considered in this paper have a broad peak of aphelion distances, based on current gravitational theory, centred at approximately 50 kAU. In the case of gravitational anti-screening, these aphelion distances will be shown to be greatly reduced to a narrow distribution centred at approximately 10 kAU. It is further found from the theory that comets orbiting at this distance will have orbital speeds approximately 20% greater than that predicted from Newtonian gravitational theory.

description: We study the time-dependent dynamical phase of fractional quasiparticles in quantum Hall states using Ramsey interferometry. A Ramsey two-pulse voltage modulation generates an interference term in the current noise of a quantum point contact oscillating with the dynamical phase. We show that the interference pattern probes the Green's function of the fractional quasi-particles in the time domain and reveals the fractional charge. We address both the case of a point-like tunnel junction and the case of momentum-resolved tunneling which also provides information on the speed of those quasiparticles propagating along the edge. For the 5/2 fractional quantum Hall case, the Ramsey signal can differentiate between the Pfaffian and anti-Pfaffian states.

description: The non-linear Poisson-Boltzmann equation for a circular, uniformly charged platelet, confined together with co- and counter-ions to a cylindrical cell, is solved semi-analytically by transforming it into an integral equation and solving the latter iteratively. This method proves efficient, robust, and can be readily generalized to other problems based on cell models, treated within non-linear Poisson-like theory. The solution to the PB equation is computed over a wide range of physical conditions, and the resulting osmotic equation of state is shown to be in fair agreement with recent experimental data for Laponite clay suspensions, in the concentrated gel phase.

Systematic calculation of s-wave pion and kaon self-energies in asymmetric nuclear matter

description: We calculate the pion self-energies in asymmetric nuclear matter in the two-loop approximation of chiral perturbation theory. We find three types of corrections beyond the well-known linear density approximation. The resulting s-wave potential (or equivalent mass-shift) of a $π^-$ in the center of a heavy nucleus like Pb turns out to be $U_{π^-}=Δm_{π^-} \simeq 14$ MeV, about half of what is needed to form the deeply bound and narrow pionic atom-states recently observed at GSI. The potential for a $π^+$ under the same conditions is $U_{π^+}=Δm_{π^+} \simeq -1$ MeV. In the same way we calculate the mass-shifts of $K^+$-mesons in symmetric nuclear matter and neutron matter and find an increase of the $K^+$-mass by 9% and 5%, respectively. As a further application we give an analytical result for the third order term in the scattering length expansion of the in-medium self-energy of an interacting light-boson/heavy-fermion system.

description: Scholars have recently devoted increasing attention to the role and function of international bureaucracies in global policymaking. Some of them contend that international public officials have gained significant political influence in various policy fields. Compared to other international bureaucracies, the political leeway of the Secretariat of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change has been considered rather limited. Due to the specific problem structure of the policy domain of climate change, national governments endowed this intergovernmental treaty secretariat with a relatively narrow mandate. However, this article argues that in the past few years, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Secretariat has gradually loosened its straitjacket and expanded its original spectrum of activity by engaging different sub-national and non-state actors into a policy dialogue using facilitative orchestration as a mode of governance. The present article explores the recent evolution of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change Secretariat and investigates the way in which it initiates, guides, broadens and strengthens sub-national and non-state climate actions to achieve progress in the international climate negotiations.

description: Στην παρούσα διπλωματική εργασία παρουσιάζεται η μέθοδος προσομοίωσης Μοριακής Δυναμικής και συγκεκριμένα αναλύεται η εφαρμογή της σε κοπές νανοκλίμακας. Αρχικά τίθενται οι θεωρητικές βάσεις του μοντέλου της Μοριακής Δυναμικής και πιο συγκεκριμένα όλων των θεμελιωδών παραγόντων που το απαρτίζουν και το επηρεάζουν, όπως υπολογισμοί των τροχιών, η επιλογή ενέργειας δυναμικού ή/και ο καθορισμός της ταχύτητας κοπής, άρα και της θερμοκρασίας. Στη συνέχεια αναλύεται πιο ειδικά η χρήση της Μοριακής Δυναμικής στις νανοκοπές, τα πλεονεκτήματα, οι περιορισμοί της και οι παράμετροι διεργασίας που την επηρεάζουν, όπως το διατομικό δυναμικό που θα επιλεγεί για την προσομοίωση, η μεταβολή της γωνία κοπής του εργαλείου, το βάθος κοπής, η παραμόρφωση του υποστρώματος της επιφάνειας του υλικού κατεργασίας κ.α. Οι παράμετροι αυτοί εξετάστηκαν για τη μελέτη της μηχανικής των κοπών νανοκλίμακας και παρουσιάστηκαν τα αποτελέσματα τους στο τελικό κατεργασμένο υλικό. Για την ολοκλήρωση της βιβλιογραφικής ανασκόπησης έγινε παρουσίαση κάποιων χαρακτηριστικών περιπτώσεων προσομοίωσης Μοριακής δυναμικής για μη-σιδηρούχα υλικά, όπως ο χαλκός και το αλουμίνιο, για ημιαγωγικά υλικά, όπως το πυρίτιο, και τέλος για το σίδηρο που αποτελεί και το πιο κοινώς χρησιμοποιούμενο υλικό κατεργασίας. Τέλος περιγράφεται μια τρισδιάστατη προσομοίωση ΜΔ σε κοπή νανοκλίμακας, που αποτελεί την τελευταία λέξη της τεχνολογίας στον τομέα αυτό. Λέξεις κλειδιά:
description: Molecular dynamics (MD) simulation, like other simulation techniques can play a significant role in addressing a number of machining problems at the atomic scale. It may be noted that atomic simulations are providing new data for arious manufacturing processes and tribological phenomenon that cannot be obtained readily in any other way—theory, or experiment. In this thesis ,the principles of MD simulation, relative advantages and current limitations, and its application to a range of machining problems and materials are reviewed. The main parameters of the MD simulations that have been examined are: the selected interatomic potential, the rake angle, the edge radius, the depth of cut on cutting and thrust forces, the subsurface deformation of the machined surface etc. Also there are more specific parameters that play a significant role in nanocutting processes such as crystal orientation. Moreover for the completion of the review, have been examined the most common cases of materials, such as non-ferrous, like copper and aluminum, semiconductors, like silicon, and iron, which is the most widely used work material. Finally, it is described a 3D nanocutting model, which is the state of the art in its respective area, and the model is also verified by comparing with

description: Report on the incorporation of a gender dimension into the 400 Energy-SHIFTs research priority questions through application of the Gender Innovation Approach (GIA). The aim was to demonstrate how implementing gender sensitive research may help achieve gender equality and justice in the context of energy transitions. The results show that the GIA was applicable to some 69% of all questions, with application being illustrated by published research in 38% of them. Gender remains to be mainstreamed into research on energy and energy transitions, but mainstreaming is imperative if research is to help advance gender equality in energy transitions.
Density Matrix Renormalization Group and Reaction-Diffusion Processes

description: The density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) is applied to some one-dimensional reaction-diffusion models in the vicinity of and at their critical point. The stochastic time evolution for these models is given in terms of a non-symmetric ``quantum Hamiltonian'', which is diagonalized using the DMRG method for open chains of moderate lengths (up to about 60 sites). The numerical diagonalization methods for non-symmetric matrices are reviewed. Different choices for an appropriate density matrix in the non-symmetric DMRG are discussed. Accurate estimates of the steady-state critical points and exponents can then be found from finite-size scaling through standard finite-lattice extrapolation methods. This is exemplified by studying the leading relaxation time and the density profiles of diffusion-annihilation and of a branching-fusing model in the directed percolation universality class.

Waveforms for Gravitational Radiation from Cosmic String Loops

description: We obtain general formulae for the plus- and cross- polarized waveforms of gravitational radiation emitted by a cosmic string loop in transverse, traceless (synchronous, harmonic) gauge. These equations are then specialized to the case of piecewise linear loops, and it is shown that the general waveform for such a loop is a piecewise linear function. We give several simple examples of the waveforms from such loops. We also discuss the relation between the gravitational radiation by a smooth loop and by a piecewise linear approximation to it.

description: We present theoretical and experimental data on the magneto-optical contributions to the complex refractive index in the extreme ultraviolet (XUV) range covering the 3p resonances of Fe, Co, and Ni. Comparing the spectra from density functional theory with magnetic circular dichroism measurements we find that many body corrections and local field efects are of crucial importance for accurate description of the spectra. Our results are relevant for the application of static XUV spectroscopy for multi element magnetic systems as well as for the investigation of ultrafast magnetization dynamics.

description: H παρούσα διπλωματική εργασία έχει σκοπό την καύση του Cistus incanus L. με τη μέθοδο Limiting Oxygen Index και την καταγραφή του δείκτη ελάχιστου οξυγόνου. Η καύση της δασικής ύλης πραγματοποιήθηκε πριν κια μετά την εφαρμογή επιβραδυντικών επιβραδυντικών διαλειμμάτων. Χρησιμοποιήθηκαν υδρομαγνησίτης, χουντίτης και εμπορικό μίγμα υδρομαγνησίτη-χουντίτη, Securoc C καθως και φυσικό μείγμα αυτών Κατά την πειραματική διαδικασία χρησιμοποιήθηκε η συσκευή Limiting Oxygen Index όπου και αποτέλεσε την κύρια πειραματική διάταξη καθώς χρησιμοποιήθηκε για την καταγραφή του δείκτη ελάχιστου οξυγόνου των δασικών υλών, στοιχείο στο οποίο βασίζεται η εργασία αυτή. Από την επεξεργασία των δειγμάτων, υπολογίστηκε το ποσοστό της υγρασίας επί υγρής βάσης, το ποσοστό των επιβραδυντών που κατακρατήθηκε από τα δείγματα μετά την εμβάπτισή τους και τέλος οι δείκτες ελάχιστου οξυγόνου των δασικών υλών πριν και μετά τη χρήση των επιβραδυντών. Το συμπέρασμα που προκύπτει από τα παραπάνω είναι πως ο υδρομαγνησίτης σαν επιβραδυντής παρουσιάζει καλύτερη επιβραδυντική δράση, ενώ ο χουντίτης παρουσιάζει μεγαλύτερα ποσοστά κατακράτησης. Το γεγονός αυτό οδηγεί στο συμπέρασμα πως τα μίγματα τους είναι πιο αποτελεσματικά από τη χρήση καθαρών ορυκτών. Τέλος η μέθοδος που χρησιμοποιήθηκε στην παρούσα διπλωματική εργασία, θα μπορούσε να χαρακτηριστεί ιδιαίτερα απλή, αξιόπιστη και σχετικά φθηνή σε σύγκριση με άλλες αναλυτικές μεθόδους.

description: We investigate analytically the motion of underdamped particles subject to a deterministic periodic potential and a periodic temperature. Despite the fact that an underamped particle experiences the temperature oscillation many times in its escape out of a well and in its motion along the potential, a net directed current linear in the friction constant is found. If both the potential and the temperature modulation are sinusoidal with a phase lag $δ$, this current is proportional to $\sin δ$.

description: In the baseline design of the International Linear Collider (ILC) an undulator-based source is foreseen for the positron source in order to match the physics requirements. The baseline parameters are optimized for the ILC at $\sqrt{s} =$ 500 GeV, that means an electron drive beam of 250 GeV. Precision measurements in the Higgs sector, however, require measurements at $\sqrt{s} =$ 250 GeV, i.e. running with the electron drive beam only at 125 GeV, which imposes a challenge for achieving a high yield. Therefore the baseline undulator parameters have to be optimized as much as possible within their technical performances. In this bachelor thesis we therefore present a theoretical study on the radiation spectra of a helical undulator, based on the equation for the radiated synchrotron energy spectral density per solid angle per electron in the relativistic, far-field and point-like charge approximation. From this starting point the following undulator properties are examined: the deposited power in the undulator vessel, which can disrupt the functionality of the undulator magnets, the protective property of a mask on this disturbances and the number of positrons produced by the synchrotron radiation in a Ti-6Al-4-V target. Those quantities were evaluated for various values for parameters as undulator period, undulator length and magnetic flux in order to find optimal baseline parameter sets for $\sqrt{s} =$ 250 GeV.
