Hidden Wiring
Creators: name: Eotvos, Melody
Publisher: name: University of Melbourne
Year: 2023
Subjects: Music composition and improvisation
Music not elsewhere classified

description: This work is inspired by the hidden wiring that exists as connections between matter which function beyond our comprehension. Some of these types of wiring are physiological (such as vision and other sense-to-brain processes), including the unknown magnetism we sometimes feel towards particular people and objects which, early on, make no sense to us. The Gestalt Principles of visual perception are another wonderful example, an appropriate example being the closure and continuity principles. Then there is the hidden wiring I feel as a composer. The invisible link between brain and "the final sound" is still very much an enigma for me and I face it every time I write a piece of music. I love the unknown of it and yet each work is still a learning curve which brings me one millimetre closer to comprehending that link, until I realize the thing I discovered has already changed and a new unknown connection has replaced the one I was chasing, Rorschach-like.
 Focusing on this concept and bringing it into a musical context was a delight - the spatialization and diffusion of the Brass is a crucial part of this work and one of the more prominent embodiments of Hidden Wiring as the sound is passed wirelessly around the performance space throughout the piece, chasing its own tail (as I sometimes feel I am doing).

A Unified Hamiltonian Solution to Maxwell-Schrodinger Equations for Modeling Electromagnetic Field-Particle Interaction

description: A novel unified Hamiltonian approach is proposed to solve Maxwell-Schrodinger equation for modeling the interaction between classical electromagnetic (EM) fields and particles. Based on the Hamiltonian of electromagnetics and quantum mechanics, a unified Maxwell-Schrodinger system is derived by the variational principle. The coupled system is well-posed and symplectic, which ensures energy conserving property during the time evolution. However, due to the disparity of wavelengths of EM waves and that of electron waves, a numerical implementation of the finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method to the multiscale coupled system is extremely challenging. To overcome this difficulty, a reduced eigenmode expansion technique is first applied to represent the wave function of the particle. Then, a set of ordinary differential equations (ODEs) governing the time evolution of the slowly-varying expansion coefficients are derived to replace the original Schrodinger equation. Finally, Maxwell's equations represented by the vector potential with a Coulomb gauge, together with the ODEs, are solved self-consistently. For numerical examples, the interaction between EM fields and a particle is investigated for both the closed, open and inhomogeneous electromagnetic systems. The proposed approach not only captures the Rabi oscillation phenomenon in the closed cavity but also captures the effects of radiative decay and shift in the open free space. After comparing with the existing theoretical approximate models, it is found that the approximate models break down in certain cases where a rigorous self-consistent approach is needed. This work is helpful for the EM simulation of emerging nanodevices or next-generation quantum electrodynamic systems.

description: We theoretically investigate a possibility to establish multi-qubit quantum correlations in one-dimensional chains of qubits. We combine a reservoir engineering strategy with coherent dynamics to generate multi-qubit entangled states. We find that an interplay between the coherent and incoherent dynamics result in the generation of stable (time-independent) many-body entangled steady states. Our results will be relevant in the context of the dissipative generation of quantum states, with applications in short-distance quantum computation and for exploring the emergence of collective phenomena in many-body open quantum systems.

Dynamic zero modes of Dirac fermions and competing singlet phases of antiferromagnetic order

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In quantum spin systems, singlet phases often develop in the vicinity of an antiferromagnetic order. Typical settings for such problems arise when itinerant fermions are also present. In this work, we develop a theoretical framework for addressing such competing orders in an itinerant system, described by Dirac fermions strongly coupled to an O(3) nonlinear sigma model. We focus on two spatial dimensions, where upon disordering the antiferromagnetic order by quantum fluctuations the singular tunneling events also known as (anti)hedgehogs can nucleate competing singlet orders in the paramagnetic phase. In the presence of an isolated hedgehog configuration of the nonlinear sigma model field, we show that the fermion determinant vanishes as the dynamic Euclidean Dirac operator supports fermion zero modes of definite chirality. This provides a topological mechanism for suppressing the tunneling events. Using the methodology of quantum chromodynamics, we evaluate the fermion determinant in the close proximity of magnetic quantum phase transition, when the antiferromagnetic order parameter field can be described by a dilute gas of hedgehogs and antihedgehogs. We show how the precise nature of emergent singlet order is determined by the overlap between dynamic fermion zero modes of opposite chirality, localized on the hedgehogs and antihedgehogs. For a Kondo-Heisenberg model on the honeycomb lattice, we demonstrate the competition between spin Peierls order and Kondo singlet formation, thereby elucidating its global phase diagram. We also discuss other physical problems that can be addressed within this general framework.

description: We make quantitative estimates of the power supplied to the Galactic cosmic ray population by second-order Fermi acceleration in the interstellar medium, or as it is usually termed in cosmic ray propagation studies, diffusive reacceleration. Using recent results on the local interstellar spectrum from the Voyager missions we show that for parameter values, in particular the Alfvén speed, typically used in propagation codes such as Galprop to fit the B/C ratio, the power contributed by diffusive reacceleration is significant and can be of order 50\% of the total Galactic cosmic ray power. The implications for the damping of interstellar turbulence are briefly considered.

The Need for Structure in Quantum LDPC Codes

description: Existence of quantum low-density parity-check (LDPC) codes whose minimal distance scales linearly with the number of qubits is a major open problem in quantum information. Its practical interest stems from the need to protect information in a future quantum computer, and its theoretical appeal relates to a deep "global-to-local" notion in quantum mechanics: whether we can constrain long-range entanglement using local checks. Given the inability of lattice-based quantum LDPC codes to achieve linear distance, research has recently shifted to the other extreme end of topologies, so called high-dimensional expanders. In this work we show that trying to leverage the mere "random-like" property of these expanders to find good quantum codes may be futile: quantum CSS codes of $n$ quits built from $d$-complexes that are $\varepsilon$-far from perfectly random, in a well-known sense called discrepancy, have a small minimal distance. Quantum codes aside, our work places a first upper-bound on the systole of high-dimensional expanders with small discrepancy, and a lower-bound on the discrepancy of skeletons of Ramanujan complexes due to Lubotzky.

description: Primäres Ziel der vorliegenden Arbeit ist es, synthetische Bausteine in Polyketid-biosynthesewege einzuschleusen. Dies soll nach Möglichkeit vorhersagbar, gezielt und flexibel geschehen. Des Weiteren werden partialsynthetische Derivatisierungen von Naturstoffen untersucht. Etablierte Strategien zur Einführung künstlicher Substrate in Polyketide sind die vorlaüferdirigierte Biosynthese und die Mutasynthese. In denen werden Analoga der jeweiligen Starteinheit durch Fütterung eingeschleust. Diese Ansätze sollen zur Erzeugung orthogonal funktionalisierter Rapamycinderivate genutzt werden. Zur Flexibilisierung der Mutasynthese werden Untersuchungen von Acyltransferasen in Polyketidsynthasen angestrebt, die synthetischen Malonsäurederivate als Verlängerungseeinheiten in verschiedenen Polyketiden einfügen sollen. Dieses Vorhaben soll auf mehreren möglichen Wegen erreicht werden. In den Partialsynthesen soll Premonensin, ein fermentativ herzustellendes aber nicht-natives Polyketid, modifiziert werden. Dadurch sollen Struktur-Wirkungs-Beziehungen dieser bioaktiven Verbindung erleichtert werden. Des Weiteren soll nach Wegen gesucht werden, das Diterpen Fusicoccadien oxidativ zu funktionalisieren.

description: We investigate the cosmological implications of studying galaxy clustering using a tomographic approach applied to the final BOSS DR12 galaxy sample, including both auto- and cross-correlation functions between redshift shells. We model the signal of the full shape of the angular correlation function, $ω(θ)$, in redshift bins using state-of-the-art modelling of non-linearities, bias and redshift-space distortions. We present results on the redshift evolution of the linear bias of BOSS galaxies, which cannot be obtained with traditional methods for galaxy-clustering analysis. We also obtain constraints on cosmological parameters, combining this tomographic analysis with measurements of the cosmic microwave background (CMB) and type Ia supernova (SNIa). We explore a number of cosmological models, including the standard $Λ$CDM model and its most interesting extensions, such as deviations from $w_\rm{DE} = -1$, non-minimal neutrino masses, spatial curvature and deviations from general relativity using the growth-index $γ$ parametrisation. These results are, in general, comparable to the most precise present-day constraints on cosmological parameters, and show very good agreement with the standard model. In particular, combining CMB, $ω(θ)$ and SNIa, we find a value of $w_\rm{DE}$ consistent with $-1$ to a precision better than 5\% when it is assumed to be constant in time, and better than 6\% when we also allow for a spatially-curved Universe.

Damit wurde ein didaktisches Instrument aufgenommen, welches die Integration fragmentierter Lernprozesse und die Kohärenz des Studiengangs zu unterstützen vermag. Lernende, die ihre Wissensgeschichte kontinuierlich dokumentieren, reflektieren und sich mit ihrem Kompetenzprofil präsentieren, tragen Sorge für eine Integration von Wissen und für eine erhöhte Kohärenz ihrer Lernprozesse. Indem eine im Studiengang integrierte Portfolioarbeit Studierenden Raum, Zeit und Impulse zur Verfügung stellt, werden Reflexion und koordinierende Aufgaben für forschendes Lernen maßgeblich unterstützt. Im Kontaktstudium der ZHAW erhalten die Studierenden theoretische und praktische Impulse für ihre persönliche Portfolioarbeit, die im Rahmen des Selbststudiums wahrgenommen wird. In diesem Sinne kann besonders eine curriculumsumfassende Portfolioarbeit Selbstverantwortung und Selbststeuerung und damit forschendes Lernen in fragmentierten Studiengängen fördern und Gesamtentwicklungsprozesse unterstützen.

description: We consider Bell tests in which the distant observers can perform local filtering before testing a Bell inequality. Notably, in this setup, certain entangled states admitting a local hidden variable model in the standard Bell scenario can nevertheless violate a Bell inequality after filtering, displaying so-called hidden nonlocality. Here we ask whether all entangled states can violate a Bell inequality after well-chosen local filtering. We answer this question in the negative by showing that there exist entangled states without hidden nonlocality. Specifically, we prove that some two-qubit Werner states still admit a local hidden variable model after any possible local filtering on a single copy of the state.

description: Einleitend wird nachgezeichnet, in welcher Weise die deutsche Soziologie nach 1945 ihr Versagen vor dem Prozeß der Faschisierung sowie ihre bereitwillige Unterordnung unter den faschistischen Herrschaftsapparat und die Instrumentalisierung der Wissenschaft für dessen Zwecke tabuisierte. Im zweiten Teil werden die verschiedenen Arbeiten zur Rekonstruktion der Fachgeschichte in ihren Grundaussagen beschrieben. Die Darstellung der folgenden Beiträge beginnt mit der die aktuelle Debatte auslösenden Arbeit von (1) Lepsius 1979. Es folgen (2) Papcke 1980; (3) Schelsky 1980; (4) Bergmann u.a. 1981; (5) Klingemann 1981; (6) Lepsius 1981; (7) Linde 1981 und Schelsky 1981; (8) König 1982; (9) Jaeggi u.a. 1983. Der Beitrag schließt mit der Feststellung, daß die Auseinandersetzung über die Soziologie im Faschismus zu einem großen Teil von fachpolitischen Motiven geleitet wird. Das nicht mehr zu unterdrückende Wissen über die Existenz und den politischen Charakter der faschistischen Soziologie hat zu einer Gegenoffensive der Kräfte geführt, die an einer Rehabilitation der einschlägigen theoretischen Orientierungen und ihrer Vertreter interessiert sind. Aufgabe fortschrittlicher Soziologen ist es in dieser Situation, die von einer Wende im gesamtgesellschaftlichen Maßstab begleitet wird, die aktuelle politische Funktion solcher theoretischen Orientierungen herauszuarbeiten, die sich am Vorbild Freyers und anderer orientieren. Zum anderen muß es Aufgabe bleiben, die Geschichtsverfälschungen durch detaillierte Recherchen zu widerlegen und mit fundiertem Wissen sich aktiv an der Debatte zu beteiligen.

description: We present the results of a search for additional bodies in the GJ 1132 system through two methods: photometric transits and transit timing variations of the known planet. We collected 21 transit observations of GJ 1132b with the MEarth-South array since 2015. We obtained 100 near-continuous hours of observations with the $Spitzer$ Space Telescope, including two transits of GJ 1132b and spanning 60\% of the orbital phase of the maximum period at which bodies coplanar with GJ 1132b would pass in front of the star. We exclude transits of additional Mars-sized bodies, such as a second planet or a moon, with a confidence of 99.7\%. When we combine the mass estimate of the star (obtained from its parallax and apparent $K_s$ band magnitude) with the stellar density inferred from our high-cadence $Spitzer$ light curve (assuming zero eccentricity), we measure the stellar radius of GJ 1132 to be $0.2105^{+0.0102}_{-0.0085} R_\odot$, and we refine the radius measurement of GJ 1132b to $1.130 \pm 0.056 R_\oplus$. Combined with HARPS RV measurements, we determine the density of GJ 1132b to be $6.2 \pm 2.0$\ g cm$^{-3}$, with the mass determination dominating this uncertainty. We refine the ephemeris of the system and find no evidence for transit timing variations, which would be expected if there was a second planet near an orbital resonance with GJ 1132b.

Year: 2016

description: This study has been conducted since March 2016 to investigate BSC implementation in Jimma University. The main objective of the study was to assess BSC implementations, successes and challenges as they happen in Jimma University. The study used both qualitative and quantitative methods. Out of the non-probability sampling purposive/judgmental sampling has been used. Data was collected from both secondary and primary sources using document review, interview and questionnaire. From the total number of 1134 target population, 114 questionnaires were distributed, from this 103 were returned. The sample size was determined to be at list 10 percent of the target population. The collected data was analyzed using descriptive approach by charts and tables. The analysis of the study reveled that the leadership is good to see committed in terms of defining the University's vision, mission and values as well as building and implementing BSC; In addition the leadership has done enough to facilitate top-dawn and bottom up communication. In the implementation process a good deal of work was done to analyze the internal and external environment of the University so as to identify the enablers and pains during implementation. Finally the implementation was facilitated by appropriate choice themes and key success factors, objectives, performance indicators for the success of the implementation initiatives which were carefully selected with goal of solving significant organization pain and tied to the vision & mission of the organization. After the implementation respondents still believe there are modest successes and some challenges that need JU leadership attention. Therefore, it is recommended that JU should focus on strengthening reform team and change agent for proper implementation of balanced score card and enhancing communication at every stage of reform implementation. It is also recommended that the University leaders should be highly committed towards avoiding taking more time to finalize reform implementation and putting incentive mechanism in place in order to motivate the best performers.

description: We show that the coherent forward scattering (CFS) interference peak amplitude sharply jumps from zero to a finite value upon crossing a metal-insulator transition. Extensive numerical simulations reveal that the CFS peak contrast obeys the one-parameter scaling hypothesis and gives access to the critical exponents of the transition. We also discover that the critical CFS peak directly controls the spectral compressibility at the transition where eigenfunctions are multifractal, and we demonstrate the universality of this property with respect to various types of disorder.

description: Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht im Anschluss an eine Auseinandersetzung mit der Frage der Wirkungszuschreibungen von Musik die Folgen einer Kombination des gesellschaftlich negativ bewerteten Phänomens der Lernbehinderung mit dem positiv bewerteten Phänomen Musik und Musizieren. Im empirischen Teil werden zwei Schulklassen von Förderschulen mit dem Schwerpunkt Lernen in einem Zwei-Gruppen-Pretest-Posttest-Design mit Messwiederholung verglichen. Für die Experimentalgruppe wurden für ein Schuljahr zwei Wochenstunden des Kernunterrichts durch Gitarrenunterricht im Klassenverband ersetzt, während die Kontrollgruppe weiter nach der regulären Stundentafel unterrichtet wurde. Mittels dreier standardisierter Inventare zur Selbst- und Fremdwahrnehmung (SESSKO, SELLMO, LSL) wurde die jeweilige Entwicklung beider Gruppen verglichen. Trotz der geringen Größe der untersuchten Stichprobe (n = 25) ließen sich durch Signifikanzprüfung mittels multivariater Varianzanalysen Vorteile der Entwicklung der Experimentalgruppe im Bereich der Fremdwahrnehmung des Sozialverhaltens durch die Lehrenden belegen. Die Berechnung der Effektstärke (Cohen’s d) ließ darauf schließen, dass mittlere bis große Effekte vorliegen. Für den Bereich der Lern- und Leistungsmotivation, sowie für das wahrgenommene Lernverhalten ließen sich zwar Tendenzen einer positiveren Entwicklung der Experimentalgruppe zeigen, jedoch keine statistischen Signifikanzen. In der Folge werden die bildungsspezifischen Konsequenzen dieser Untersuchung vor dem Hintergrund der schulischen Inklusionsentwicklung erörtert. Durch die Fokussierung der Bedeutung von Auto- und Heterostereotypen für Bildungsprozesse und die Möglichkeit, diese durch Musik neu zu reflektieren, ergeben sich neue Ansatzpunkte für die Musikwirkungsforschung und auch die Schulentwicklungsforschung.

description: Ultraluminous x-ray sources (ULXs) in nearby galaxies shine brighter than any X-ray source in our Galaxy. ULXs are usually modeled as stellar-mass black holes (BHs) accreting at very high rates or intermediate-mass BHs. We present observations showing that NGC5907 ULX is instead an x-ray accreting neutron star (NS) with a spin period evolving from 1.43~s in 2003 to 1.13~s in 2014. It has an isotropic peak luminosity of about 1000 times the Eddington limit for a NS at 17.1~Mpc. Standard accretion models fail to explain its luminosity, even assuming beamed emission, but a strong multipolar magnetic field can describe its properties. These findings suggest that other extreme ULXs (x-ray luminosity > 10^{41} erg/s) might harbor NSs.

description: Oral delivery of small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) draws significant attention, but the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) has many biological barriers that limit the drugs’ bioavailability. The aim of this work was to investigate the potential of micro- and nano-sized CaCO3 and PLA carriers for oral delivery of siRNA and reveal a relationship between the physicochemical features of these carriers and their biodistribution. In vitro stability of carriers was investigated in simulated gastric and intestinal fluids. Toxicity and cellular uptake were investigated on Caco-2 cells. The biodistribution profiles of the developed CaCO3 and PLA carriers were examined using different visualization methods, including SPECT, fluorescence imaging, radiometry, and histological analysis. The delivery efficiency of siRNA loaded carriers was investigated both in vitro and in vivo. Micro-sized carriers were accumulated in the stomach and later localized in the colon tissues. The nanoscale particles (100–250 nm) were distributed in the colon tissues. nPLA was also detected in small intestine. The developed carriers can prevent siRNA from premature degradation in GIT media. Our results reveal how the physicochemical properties of the particles, including their size and material type can affect their biodistribution profile and oral delivery of siRNA.
Signal optimization in urban transport: A totally asymmetric simple exclusion process with traffic lights

description: We consider the exclusion process on a ring with time-dependent defective bonds at which the hoping rate periodically switches between zero and one. This system models main roads in city traffics, intersecting with perpendicular streets. We explore basic properties of the system, in particular dependence of the vehicular flow on the parameters of signalization as well as the system size and the car density. We investigate various types of the spatial distribution of the vehicular density, and show existence of a shock profile. We also measure waiting time behind traffic lights, and examine its relationship with the traffic flow.

The Role of Private Organizations in Corporate Social Responsibility in Ethiopia
Creators: name: Yonas, Seifu
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2018

description: The purpose of this thesis is to explore and analyze the role of private sector in the concept of CSR from Ethiopian perspective to form a starting point for further research. The aim is also to identify how Private companies and organizations in Ethiopia understanding their role and part in accomplishment of corporate social responsibility, and to find out what the learning PLCs involvements are. The data for the study has been distributed and collected through a field study in Akaki Kality sub city PLCs, including personal interviews and discussions with a number of companies and organizations. The questionnaires and interviews were conducted through a field study in Akaki Kality sub city, for companies' executives and questionnaires for general managers, financial and HR mangers too. Generally, the findings of this study show that CSR as idea is fresh in Ethiopia especially in the participation of private organization. The study employs both quantitative and qualitative methods to collect data from the sampled private organizations in the sub city are used, is applicable and descriptive statistical approach also is adopted for the study. In addition, the investigation is identifying the major findings of the research in the selected area, like extreme market oriented economic understanding, lack of awareness about social interest, integrating framework, less government role and absence of sustainable relationship. The investigator has been recommended some points: creating one legal entity or body, active government role, media usage, organizing networking system between Private Organization and surrounding people, experience sharing from developed country and creating different awareness creation programs as well.

description: Endometrial cancer is a common malignant gynecological tumor, but there are few biomarkers that are useful for early and accurate diagnosis and few treatments other than surgery. However, use of microRNAs (miRNAs) that induces gene downregulation in cells may permit effective and minimally invasive diagnosis and treatment. In endometrial cancer cells, expression levels of miRNAs including miR-185, miR-210 and miR-423 are upregulated and those of miR-let7e, miR-30c and miR-221 are downregulated compared to normal tissues, and these miRNAs are involved in carcinogenesis, invasion and metastasis. miRNAs with expression changes such as miR-181b, miR-324-3p and miR-518b may be used as prognostic biomarkers and transfection of miR-152 may inhibit cancer growth. However, most current studies of miRNAs are at a basic level and further work is needed to establish clinical applications targeting miRNAs.

description: We characterize numerically and analytically the signatures of the spin-orbit interaction in a two-electron GaAs double quantum dot in the presence of an external magnetic field. In particular, we obtain the return probability of the singlet state by simulating Landau-Zener voltage detuning sweeps which traverse the singlet-triplet ($S-T_+$) resonance. Our results indicate that non-spin-conserving interdot tunneling processes arising from the spin-orbit interaction have well defined signatures. These allow direct access to the spin-orbit interaction scales and are characterized by a frequency shift and Fourier amplitude modulation of the Rabi flopping dynamics of the singlet-triplet qubits $S-T_0$ and $S-T_+$. By applying the Bloch-Feshbach projection formalism, we demonstrate analytically that the aforementioned effects originate from the interplay between spin-orbit interaction and processes driven by the hyperfine interaction between the electron spins and those of the GaAs nuclei.
