description: L’objectif de cette étude est d’évaluer les effets des gains monétaires de l'entrepreneuriat féminin sur les indicateurs non monétaires du développement humain que sont la santé et l’éducation au Tchad.

Les données de cette recherche sont de source secondaire et appartiennent à la base des données de l’Institut National de la Statistique, des Etudes Economiques et Démographiques (INSEED), notamment les données de l’Enquête sur la Consommation des Ménages et le Secteur Informel au Tchad, troisième phase (ECOSIT-3) de 2011. Elles ont été analysées grâce aux modèles Tobit et Probit pour apprécier les effets des gains monétaires tirés de l’entrepreneuriat féminin sur les indicateurs non monétaires du développement humain au Tchad.

Les résultats montrent que la différence d'accès à l'éducation et aux soins de santé entre les ménages dirigés par les femmes entrepreneures et ceux dirigés par les femmes non entrepreneures n'est pas significative au seuil de 5%. Ces résultats permettent de conclure que les gains monétaires issus de l'entrepreneuriat féminin n’améliorent pas significativement les indicateurs non monétaires du développement humain dans le contexte de l’étude.

description: Service quality is an essential element to get competitive advantage for service companies. Specifically, to higher education institutions, in addition to meeting the academic standards and getting accreditation, measuring students' perception of service quality as primary customers of higher institution is vital to enhance the satisfaction of their students. In doing so, the institutions will be able to device ways to improve their service delivery and ensure students' satisfaction. Student satisfaction is a key for creating a loyal student that would choose the university now and again and recommend to others which will contribute for building competitive advantage for the institution. This study analysed the service quality dimension that affects the student satisfaction by using the modified SERVPERF model fit to higher education using three students service quality dimensions namely, Requisite, Acceptable and Functional on a convenient sample of undergraduate distance students of two purposefully selected sample private Ethiopian Universities, among others offering distance education in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia. A self-administered questionnaire was employed, of which 360 valid responses collected, data was analysed using descriptive (Frequency and Percentage) as well as inferential statistics such as correlation and regression analysis. Given the scope and limitations of the study, findings revealed even if all of the service quality dimensions affect students' satisfaction, the requisite service quality dimensions are very significant to the students. Therefore, providing a holistic view over all service quality dimensions, an emphasis should be given to the requisite service quality dimension to improve service quality and increase students' satisfaction

description: Modern semiconductor detectors allow for charged particle tracking with ever increasing position resolution. Due to the reduction of the spatial hit uncertainties, multiple Coulomb scattering in the detector layers becomes the dominant source for tracking uncertainties. In this case long distance effects can be ignored for the momentum measurement, and the track fit can consequently be formulated as a sum of independent fits to hit triplets. In this paper we present an analytical solution for a three-dimensional triplet(s) fit in a homogeneous magnetic field based on a multiple scattering model. Track fitting of hit triplets is performed using a linearization ansatz. The momentum resolution is discussed for a typical spectrometer setup. Furthermore the track fit is compared with other track fits for two different pixel detector geometries, namely the Mu3e experiment at PSI and a typical high-energy collider experiment. For a large momentum range the triplets fit provides a significantly better performance than a single helix fit. The triplets fit is fast and can easily be parallelized, which makes it ideal for the implementation on parallel computing architectures.

description: We present a general formalism for the analysis of mechanical lattices with microstructure using the concept of effective mass. We first revisit a classical case of microstructure being modeled by a spring-interconnected mass-in-mass cell. The frequency-dependent effective mass of the cell is the sum of a static mass and of an added mass, in analogy to that of a swimmer in a fluid. The effective mass is derived using three different methods: momentum equivalence, action equivalence, and dynamic condensation. These methods are generalized to mechanical systems with arbitrary microstructure. As an application, we calculate the effective mass of a $1$D composite lattice with microstructure modeled by a chiral spring-interconnected mass-in-mass cell. A reduced (condensed) model of the full lattice is then obtained by lumping the microstructure into a single effective mass. A dynamic Bloch analysis is then performed using both the full and reduced lattice models, which give the same spectral results. In particular, the frequency bands follow from the full lattice model by solving a linear eigenvalue problem, or from the reduced lattice model by solving a smaller nonlinear eigenvalue problem. The range of frequencies of negative effective mass falls within the bandgaps of the lattice. Localized modes due to defects in the microstructure have frequencies within the bandgaps, inside the negative-mass range. Defects of the outer, or macro stiffness yield localized modes within each bandgap, but outside the negative-mass range. The proposed formalism can be applied to study the odd properties of coupled micro-macro systems, e.g., active matter.

description: This dissertation is ultimately about a set of technologies that are slow changing the world; Natural Language Processing (NLP), knowledge retrieval, and machine learning. Whether or not this is a good thing is very much open for debate. The first chapter analyzes use cases of NLP in educational contexts, especially with regards to sociolinguistics. The second chapter attempts to locate a promising technology epistemologically. The third chapter describes the process of applying machine learning and human expertise towards Knowledge Graphs specifically for K-12 settings. While the first chapter stands alone, the second and third chapters are helpful to read together.

description: Improved understanding of solid surface energy and its role in the overall mechanical properties is of great interest due to the emerging manufacturing techniques of nanostructures, coatings, and synthetic/biological bilayer-polymer hybrids. Continuum numerical modeling of surface stresses efficiently incorporates a zero-thickness membrane bonded to a bulk, intrinsically accounting for surface tension and surface elasticity. Compressive surface stresses are not possible in a purely membrane formulation, ignoring the surface flexural resistance. The extension of material surfaces to account for flexural resistance, i.e., the Steigmann–Ogden model, requires spatial derivatives of second order, posing significant challenges to standard discretization techniques. Hence, the effect of surface curvature resistance on the overall mechanical behavior of complex geometries remains elusive. Here, we develop a three-dimensional computational formulation of curvature-dependent surface energetics at finite strains using surface-enriched isogeometric analysis. Coupled with a hyperelastic bulk, bending-resistance of material surfaces furnishes a new physical length scale, i.e., the elastobending length. We quantify the effect of elastobending deformations for several numerical examples involving soft materials with thin coatings and liquid-shell surfaces, capturing budding-like behavior observed at cell membranes. Our results demonstrate a stiffer overall mechanical behavior when material surfaces resist bending deformations and illustrate how curvature effects lead to complex budding deformations at non-zero initial curvature states. The proposed methodology provides a robust computational foundation to help improve our understanding and mechanical characterization of soft solids, nanostructures, and biological membranes at small scales.

description: This study uses nationally representative self-report data from the 2016 Survey of Prison Inmates to examine the relationship between race and prison disciplinary action. Though ample research documents racial inequity in the criminal legal system, our understanding of race inside corrections facilities is limited. Disciplinary action within prison plays a prominent role in determining access to resources while inside and parole eligibility. Punishment is a prominent force within prisons, and there is evidence to suggest that surveillance and discretion based on race/ethnicity play a significant role in who and what actions receive discipline. The guiding questions of this research are: What is the nature of disciplinary action in state prisons? And what is the relationship between race/ethnicity and whether and how often people are disciplined while incarcerated in state prisons? Findings support that discipline is a routine occurrence within prisons, impacting over half of the prison population, and that Black people/people who are racialized as Black (Street Race Black) are at the greatest risk of being punished in prison. Some findings suggest that women are at greater risk of more frequent discipline than men and that intersectional inequalities play a role in how discretion operates to determine who gets disciplined and how often.
title: Identity, connection & responsibility: insights from feminist poststructuralism and the ethics of care on homelessness in Canada
Creators: name: Huget, Laurel
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
Year: 2022

description: Recent narratives on homelessness and poverty in Canada at the time of COVID-19 have exposed contradictions and limitations to dominant conceptualizations of connection, responsibility, and care. The global pandemic has highlighted routes of connectivity that are normally obscured, and has thus prompted a surge in advocacy for the responsibility to care for the wellbeing of others to whom such a responsibility is not normally recognized. However, this sentiment of care has not been similarly extended to unhoused persons among the most vulnerable to the social, economic, and public health consequences of COVID-19. This thesis explores this contradiction as the product of neoliberal logics that individualize homelessness, stigmatize the people experiencing it, and deny the domiciled population’s connection to the phenomenon and their shared responsibility for addressing it. Against neoliberalism’s description, diagnosis, and treatment of homelessness, this thesis examines the ethics of care and feminist poststructuralism as frameworks that can expand limited conceptualizations of connection and responsibility. The author argues that together, feminist poststructuralism and the ethics of care provide the impetus and foundation for countering the stigma of homelessness, the narratives that distance and separate the domiciled against the unhoused, and ultimately the inadequate social and political treatment of homelessness.

description: We report semiconductor to metal-like crossover in temperature dependence of resistivity ($ρ$) due to the switching of charge transport from bulk to surface channel in three-dimensional topological insulator Bi$_{1.5}$Sb$_{0.5}$Te$_{1.7}$Se$_{1.3}$. Unlike earlier studies, a much sharper drop in $ρ$($T$) is observed below the crossover temperature due to the dominant surface conduction. Remarkably, the resistivity of the conducting surface channel follows a rarely observable $T^2$ dependence at low temperature as predicted theoretically for a two-dimensional Fermi liquid system. The field dependence of magnetization shows a cusp-like paramagnetic peak in the susceptibility ($χ$) at zero field over the diamagnetic background. The peak is found to be robust against temperature and decays linearly with field from its zero-field value. This unique behavior of $χ$ is associated with the spin-momentum locked topological surface state of Bi$_{1.5}$Sb$_{0.5}$Te$_{1.7}$Se$_{1.3}$. The reconstruction of surface state with time is clearly reflected through the reduction of peak height with the age of the sample.

description: Indien ist ein Land mit extremen Unterschieden im Bildungsstand der Bevölkerung. Dies stellt eine Ursache für eine Gesellschaftsstruktur mit erheblichen nachhaltigen sozialen Differenzen dar. Welchen Einfluss nehmen vor diesem Hintergrund soziale und kulturelle Faktoren auf die Bildungsmotivation Einzelner in der indischen Gesellschaft? Welche Aspekte der sozialen, ökonomischen und kulturellen Umwelt spielen eine Rolle bei Bildungsentscheidungen und der Entstehung von Bildungswegen? Die Forschungsarbeit betrachtet Bildungsmotivation nicht primär als psychologisches Phänomen, sondern nimmt eine interdisziplinäre Sichtweise zwischen Bildungssoziologie, kognitiver Motivationspsychologie und Sozialanthropologie ein, um die Kontextabhängigkeit von Bildungsmotivation zu untersuchen. Dabei werden insbesondere indigene Theorieansätze aus diesen Fachgebieten berücksichtig. Im empirischen Teil wird Bildungsmotivation in vier Sozialschichten im urbanen Raum Indiens untersucht. Die Ergebnisse der Arbeit präsentieren schichtzugehörige Einflussfaktoren auf Bildungsmotivation, die sich in den drei Feldern sozioökonomische Rahmenbedingungen, soziale Beziehungen und hinduistische Denkmodelle bewegen.
Assessment of Corporate Governance Practice in Private Banks of Ethiopia

description: It is the separation of ownership and control that resulted the concept of corporate governance. Since governance is the center point for corporate success it needs the attention of all stakeholders. Unless given a focus it deserves in managing a business, it may result undesirable long term consequences. In the current business set up, banks are among the industry that are implementing the concept of corporate governance in the context of Ethiopia. Due to the sensitivity nature of the business and an irreplaceable role banks play in the macro economy of a given country, poor corporate governance practice in banks may have a macroeconomic impact that could potentially affect the whole economy. As a result, this research paper was prepared with the objective of measuring and understanding the level of corporate governance practice in private banks in Ethiopia in light of OECD principles and Basel committee on banking supervision, so as to improve the understating of various stakeholders and also to shed light on the adoption of best practices and principles into the country corporate governance system. Major components like board of directors, shareholders, Executive directors, supervisory organ, disclosure, risk management and internal control were taken as major determinant variables. A questionnaire prepared addressing those variables were distributed and related documents were also reviewed. The data collected were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the results were discussed based on the outcome and conclusion and recommendations were forwarded. From the output of the research, it was learnt that, private banks in Ethiopia are in good corporate governance foundation because of the regulatory organ strict supervision on each and every action of the banks in the market. However, some important and critical manifestation of good corporate governance are lacking both from regulatory side and from the banks side that would promote the practice some steps higher. It is the rule of the land that dictates the level of good corporate governance than the willingness and awareness of the banks to inculcate this business need into their management system
Jet energy scale and resolution in the CMS experiment in pp collisions at 8 TeV

description: Improved jet energy scale corrections, based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 inverse-femtobarns collected by the CMS experiment in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV, are presented. The corrections as a function of pseudorapidity eta and transverse momentum pT are extracted from data and simulated events combining several channels and methods. They account successively for the effects of pileup, uniformity of the detector response, and residual data-simulation jet energy scale differences. Further corrections, depending on the jet flavor and distance parameter (jet size) R, are also presented. The jet energy resolution is measured in data and simulated events and is studied as a function of pileup, jet size, and jet flavor. Typical jet energy resolutions at the central rapidities are 15-20% at 30 GeV, about 10% at 100 GeV, and 5% at 1 TeV. The studies exploit events with dijet topology, as well as photon+jet, Z+jet and multijet events. Several new techniques are used to account for the various sources of jet energy scale corrections, and a full set of uncertainties, and their correlations, are provided. The final uncertainties on the jet energy scale are below 3% across the phase space considered by most analyses (pT > 30 GeV and abs(eta) < 5.0). In the barrel region (abs(eta) < 1.3) an uncertainty below 1% for pT > 30 GeV is reached, when excluding the jet flavor uncertainties, which are provided separately for different jet flavors. A new benchmark for jet energy scale determination at hadron colliders is achieved with 0.32% uncertainty for jets with pT of the order of 165-330 GeV, and abs(eta) < 0.8.

description: We explore reprocessing models for a sample of 17 hypervariable quasars, taken from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey Reverberation Mapping (SDSS-RM) project, which all show coordinated optical luminosity hypervariability with amplitudes of factors $\gtrsim 2$ between 2014 and 2020. We develop and apply reprocessing models for quasar light curves in simple geometries that are likely to be representative of quasar inner environments. In addition to the commonly investigated thin-disk model, we include the thick-disk and hemisphere geometries. The thick-disk geometry could, for instance, represent a magnetically-elevated disk, whereas the hemisphere model can be interpreted as a first-order approximation for any optically-thick out-of-plane material caused by outflows/winds, warped/tilted disks, etc. Of the 17 quasars in our sample, eleven are best-fit by a hemisphere geometry, five are classified as thick disks, and both models fail for just one object. We highlight the successes and shortcomings of our thermal reprocessing models in case studies of four quasars that are representative of the sample. While reprocessing is unlikely to explain all of the variability we observe in quasars, we present our classification scheme as a starting point for revealing the likely geometries of reprocessing for quasars in our sample and hypervariable quasars in general.

description: Novel plant communities reshape landscapes and pose challenges for land cover classification and mapping that can constrain research and stewardship efforts. In the US Northeast, emergence of low-statured woody vegetation, or shrublands, instead of secondary forests in post-agricultural landscapes is well documented by field studies, but poorly understood from a landscape perspective, which limits the ability to systematically study and manage these lands. To address gaps in classification/mapping of low-statured cover types where they have been historically rare, we developed models to predict shrubland distributions at 30 m resolution across New York State (NYS), using a stacked ensemble combining a random forest, gradient boosting machine, and artificial neural network to integrate remote sensing of structural (airborne LIDAR) and optical (satellite imagery) properties of vegetation cover. We first classified a 1 m canopy height model (CHM), derived from a patchwork of available LIDAR coverages, to define shrubland presence/absence. Next, these non-contiguous maps were used to train a model ensemble based on temporally segmented imagery to predict shrubland probability for the entire study landscape (NYS). Approximately 2.5% of the CHM coverage area was classified as shrubland. Models using Landsat predictors trained on the classified CHM were effective at identifying shrubland (test set AUC = 0.893, real-world AUC = 0.904), in discriminating between shrub/young forest and other cover classes, and produced qualitatively sensible maps, even when extending beyond the original training data. After ground-truthing, we expect these shrubland maps and models will have many research and stewardship applications including wildlife conservation, invasive species mitigation and natural climate solutions. Our results suggest that incorporation of airborne LiDAR, even from a discontinuous patchwork of coverages, can improve land cover classification of historically rare but increasingly prevalent shrubland habitats across broader areas.

description: Nanoparticles (NPs) synthesized within and stabilized by a dendrimer template are known as dendrimer-encapsulated nanoparticles (DENs). Because DENs are small and generally monodisperse, they have been used as model catalysts, with structure/function relationships that can be directly compared to first principles theory. It is becoming increasingly clear, however, that electrochemical experiments may change the size or structure of NPs, which is further exacerbated for NPs < ~5 nm in diameter due to their inherent instability. The work in this dissertation emphasizes the importance of NP characterization before, during, and after electrochemical measurements, for accurate correlation of NP structure and function. First, we show that three electrochemical scans to modest positive potentials results in substantial growth of 1-2 nm Au DENS (Chapter 3). The observed growth of the DENs directly correlates to changes in their electrocatalytic oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) activity. The key point of Chapter 3 is that after just three electrochemical cleaning scans, the G6-NH₂(Au₁₄₇) and G6-NH₂(Au₅₅) DENs are essentially indistinguishable in terms of both physical and electrocatalytic properties. Second, we report the presence of small clusters of atoms (< 1 nm) (SCs) and single atoms (SAs) in solutions containing 1-2 nm DENs (Chapter 4). We have found that the presence or absence of SAs/SCs depend on both the terminal functional group of the dendrimer (-NH₂ or -OH) and the elemental composition of the DENs (Au or Pd). The observations discussed in Chapter 4 provide insights into the mechanisms for Au and Pd DEN synthesis and stability and demonstrate the need for careful characterization of systems containing NPs. Third, we report a systematic study of the electrocatalytic properties and stability of a series of 1-2 nm Au, Pd, and AuPd alloy DENs for the ethanol oxidation reaction (EOR) (Chapter 5). NP sizes and compositions were characterized both before and after EOR electrocatalysis using aberration-corrected scanning transmission electron microscopy (ac-STEM) and energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS). The results discussed in Chapter 5 demonstrate the importance of post-catalytic ac-STEM/EDS characterization for fully evaluating NP activity and stability, especially for 1-2 nm NPs that may change in size or structure during electrocatalysis.

description: We revisit the contributions of order $α^2(Zα)^5m$ and $α^2(Zα)E_F$, respectively, to the Lamb shift and to the hyperfine splitting from mixed self-energy-vacuum-polarization diagrams, involving fermionic loop. We use modern multi-loop calculation techniques based on IBP reduction and differential equations. We construct the $ε$-regular basis [LeeOnishchenko2019] and explicitly demonstrate that it is compatible with the renormalization. We obtain analytic results in terms of one-fold integral involving elliptic function and dilogarithm. As a by-product, we obtain the analogous contribution for the limiting cases of heavy and light fermionic loop.

description: We present The-wiZZ, an open source and user-friendly software for estimating the redshift distributions of photometric galaxies with unknown redshifts by spatially cross-correlating them against a reference sample with known redshifts. The main benefit of The-wiZZ is in separating the angular pair finding and correlation estimation from the computation of the output clustering redshifts allowing anyone to create a clustering redshift for their sample without the intervention of an "expert". It allows the end user of a given survey to select any sub-sample of photometric galaxies with unknown redshifts, match this sample's catalog indices into a value-added data file, and produce a clustering redshift estimation for this sample in a fraction of the time it would take to run all the angular correlations needed to produce a clustering redshift. We show results with this software using photometric data from the Kilo-Degree Survey (KiDS) and spectroscopic redshifts from the Galaxy and Mass Assembly (GAMA) survey and the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). The results we present for KiDS are consistent with the redshift distributions used in a recent cosmic shear analysis from the survey. We also present results using a hybrid machine learning-clustering redshift analysis that enables the estimation of clustering redshifts for individual galaxies.

description: The leading spectrographs used for exoplanets' sceince offer online data reduction softwares (DRS) that yield as an ancillary result the full-width at half-maximum (FWHM) of the cross-correlation function (CCF) that is used to estimate the radial velocity of the host star. The FWHM also contains information on the stellar projected rotational velocity vsini We wanted to establish a simple relationship to derive the vsini directly from the FWHM computed by the HARPS-N DRS in the case of slow-rotating solar-like stars. This may also help to recover the stellar inclination i, which in turn affects the exoplanets' parameters. We selected stars with an inclination of the spin axis compatible with 90 deg by looking at exoplanetary transiting systems with known small sky-projected obliquity: for these stars, we can presume that vsini is equal to stellar equatorial velocity veq. We derived their rotational periods from photometric time-series and their radii from SED fitting. This allowed us to recover their veq, which we could compare to the FWHM values of the CCFs obtained both with G2 and K5 spectral type masks. We obtained an empirical relation for each mask, useful for slow rotators (FWHM < 20 km/s). We applied them to 273 exoplanet-host stars observed with HARPS-N, obtaining homogeneous vsini measurements. We compared our results with the literature ones to confirm the reliability of our work, and we found a good agreement with the values found with more sophisticated methods for stars with log g > 3.5. We also tried our relations on HARPS and SOPHIE data, and we conclude that they can be used also on FWHM derived by HARPS DRS with G2 and K5 mask, and they may be adapted to the SOPHIE data as long as the spectra are taken in the high-resolution mode. We were also able to recover or constrain i for 12 objects with no prior vsini estimation.

Temporal and spatial muscle synergy features and its neural origins during sit-to-stand and stand-to-sit tasks
Creators: name: Shahid, Kainat
Publisher: name: The University of Texas at Austin
Year: 2023
Subjects: Muscle synergy

description: Sit-to-stand (STS) and stand-to-sit (StandTS) play a vital role in our daily lives. These two transitional motions are considered crucial for independent living. Many people with neurological disorders that lack neuromuscular control lose the ability to perform the transition tasks normally. Several muscles act together to achieve these motions and the inability to perform these daily life tasks, therefore, present the need to understand why they are important and what is the role of muscle synergy in the performance of such tasks. Reduced number of synergies have been found in populations with neurological disorders and the differences in the number of muscle synergies reflect descending neural pathway disruptions and present a correlation with motor deficits. Therefore, this review aims to understand the importance of these two transitional motions and muscle synergy extensively to help develop targeted interventions for healthy and clinical populations.

description: Cette étude vise à examiner les principaux facteurs influençant l'acceptation et l'adoption d'innovations managériales dans les entreprises publiques béninoises. L'adoption d'innovations managériales est devenue un enjeu majeur pour améliorer la performance et la compétitivité des entreprises publiques dans les pays en développement comme le Bénin. Cependant, leur acceptation effective reste un défi. Les entreprises publiques béninoises font face à des problèmes d'efficacité, de productivité et de qualité des services, que l'adoption d'innovations managériales pourrait permettre de résoudre. A travers une approche mixte, combinant des méthodes qualitatives et quantitatives basée sur un modèle de régression logistique (logit) binomial, cette étude a interrogé 30 cadres supérieurs impliqués dans le processus d'acceptation et d'adoption d'innovations managériales. Les résultats montrent que l'acceptation et l'adoption d'innovations managériales dépend de l'attitude positive des gestionnaires, de la qualité du leadership, de l'implication des employés, d'une culture organisationnelle favorable, ainsi que du soutien des autorités et de la cohérence des réformes institutionnelles. Des différences notables sont aussi observées selon la taille et le secteur des entreprises. Ces résultats fournissent des pistes stratégiques essentielles pour favoriser le changement organisationnel et la modernisation de la gestion publique au Bénin.

The study also applied both quantitative and qualitative approaches. This study considered 381 banking customers from the selected branch of the bank. Moreover, the study used both descriptive and inferential analysis. The descriptive result of the study indicates customers are highly satisfied on promotion, People and physical evidence of the marketing mix tools; while, they are moderate on the remaining four marketing mix tools compare to these three variables. Besides, most customers have high overall satisfaction on the implementation of the marketing mix tools in the bank. The correlation analysis shows there positive and significant relationship between the marketing mix tools and customer satisfaction. Test of hypotheses have also proved that the all but, Process marketing mix have significant relationship with customer satisfaction of the bank. Furthermore, in terms of the values of the R square of the results of the regression, service marketing mix elements such as product, place, promotion, price, people, process and physical evidence all together explain 72% of variation on customer satisfaction; whereas, the remaining 28% explained by other extraneous variables such as politics profit, plan position, profit performance etc. Study concludes that most of service marketing mix has higher effect on customer satisfaction of the bank. More over the researcher recommend that The bank should exert much effort to improve the overall level of customer satisfaction on the marketing mix tools namely; product, price, place, people and process through introducing new and diversified process options, fair service charges and commissions, cooperative and skillful employees, enhancing customers and employees technology know how and introducing fast and modernized services
Rejection of randomly coinciding events in Li$_2$$^{100}$MoO$_4$ scintillating bolometers using light detectors based on the Neganov-Luke effect

description: Random coincidences of nuclear events can be one of the main background sources in low-temperature calorimetric experiments looking for neutrinoless double-beta decay, especially in those searches based on scintillating bolometers embedding the promising double-beta candidate $^{100}$Mo, because of the relatively short half-life of the two-neutrino double-beta decay of this nucleus. We show in this work that randomly coinciding events of the two-neutrino double decay of $^{100}$Mo in enriched Li$_2$$^{100}$MoO$_4$ detectors can be effectively discriminated by pulse-shape analysis in the light channel if the scintillating bolometer is provided with a Neganov-Luke light detector, which can improve the signal-to-noise ratio by a large factor, assumed here at the level of $\sim 750$ on the basis of preliminary experimental results obtained with these devices. The achieved pile-up rejection efficiency results in a very low contribution, of the order of $\sim 6\times10^{-5}$ counts/(keV$\cdot$kg$\cdot$y), to the background counting rate in the region of interest for a large volume ($\sim 90$ cm$^3$) Li$_2$$^{100}$MoO$_4$ detector. This background level is very encouraging in view of a possible use of the Li$_2$$^{100}$MoO$_4$ solution for a bolometric tonne-scale next-generation experiment as that proposed in the CUPID project.
