description: The Horizontal Branch (HB) second parameter of Globular Clusters (GCs) is a major open issue in stellar evolution. Large photometric and spectroscopic databases allow a re-examination of this issue. We derive median and extreme (90% of the distribution) colours and magnitudes of stars along the HB for about a hundred GCs. We transform these into median and extreme masses of stars on the HB taking into account evolutionary effects, and compare these masses with those expected at the tip of the Red Giant Branch to derive the total mass lost by the stars. A simple linear dependence on metallicity of this total mass lost explains well the median colours of HB stars. Adopting this mass loss law as universal, we find that age is the main second parameter. However, at least a third parameter is clearly required. The most likely candidate is the He abundance, which might be different in GCs stars belonging to the different stellar generations whose presence was previously derived from the Na-O and Mg-Al anticorrelations. Variations in the median He abundance allow explaining the extremely blue HB of some GCs; such variations are correlated with the R-parameter. Suitable He abundances allow deriving ages from the HB which are consistent with those obtained from the Main Sequence. Small corrections to these latter ages are then proposed, producing a tight age-metallicity relation for disk and bulge GCs. Star-to-star variations in the He content explain the extension of the HB. There is a strong correlation between this extension and the interquartile of the Na-O anticorrelation. The main driver for the variations in the He-content within GCs seems the total cluster mass. 47 Tuc and M3 exhibit exceptional behaviours; however, they can be accommodated in a scenario for the formation of GCs that relates their origin to cooling flows generated after very large episodes of star formation.

description: The cross section is estimated for the $π^+π^-π^0$ invariant mass distribution in the $γp$ reaction in the GeV region. This reaction is assumed to proceed through the formation of the $ω$ meson in the intermediate state, since the production cross section for this meson in the $γp$ reaction in GeV region is significant and it has large branching ratio (88.8%) in the $π^+π^-π^0$ channel. The cross sections for this reaction have been calculated using the energy dependent reaction amplitude, i.e., $f_{γp \to ωp}(0)$, extracted from the latest $ω$ meson photoproduction data. We use established procedure to calculate other factors, like width and propagator of the $ω$ meson, so that our calculation can provide reliable cross section. The calculated results reproduce the measured $π^+π^-π^0$ invariant mass distribution spectra in the $γp$ reaction.

Subjects: subject: Inclusive education

description: Special education and inclusion are two important aspects of an educational program for students with a disability. When a student is not able to participate in certain classes or programs this really restricts what their educational journey may look like. Inclusion in secondary schools is an ongoing challenge due to the complex nature of a high school setting and makeup. With alternating bell schedules, longer days, and having multiple teachers over the course of a day are just a few examples of how difficult it can be to plan and implement successful inclusive practices in a secondary setting. This mixed methods study investigated the teachers’ perspectives of inclusion in their high school. A needs assessment methodology was used to identify the gaps between educators’ current knowledge, practices and support put into place to promote more inclusive opportunities for students. Data was collected through an online survey that contained both quantitative and qualitative questions so that teachers’ perspectives could be analyzed and studied. A descriptive analysis was used to determine the frequencies of the data and a thematic analysis was used to place educators’ responses to the qualitative questions into themes. The results of this study suggest that teachers are trying to be inclusive but still agree that they require further time to collaborate, more training/professional development and additional funding to hire more education assistants to continue improving their inclusive classrooms.

description: Supporting meaningful inclusion for all students is an area of focus today in educational contexts around the world. Inclusive education teams are teams within a school that can be made up of support teachers, counsellors, and administration and play an important role in supporting this shift to inclusive practices. There has been much research in the field looking at strategies to support inclusion, however, studies in the BC middle school context are missing. It has also been difficult to find literature that puts strategies together in a cohesive way that shows how they can be supported by inclusive education teams in collaboration with staff within a school. The aim of this qualitative study was to look at my own middle school context and discover ways in which our inclusive education team has been successful in supporting meaningful inclusion through semi-structured interviews with school staff from various roles. Finding out what we are doing well gives our team a good starting point for moving forward with meaningful inclusion at our school and reveals areas we need to work on. As context is so important in setting up for meaningful inclusion my hope is this study will add another example to build on the current body of research.
title: Mental health literacy in the middle school classroom

Subjects: subject: Mental health

description: Middle school is a time when students learn a greater understanding of the world, create a sense of independence, develop new interests and skills, and make new friends. It is a crucial time where students need to learn valuable coping strategies and life skills in conjunction with academics. The emotional effects of COVID-19 have intensified the need for social-emotional learning (SEL) strategies and mental health literacy (MHL) to be taught in schools. Many teachers are lacking knowledge around mental health, which leaves them unaware of how to support their students. The goal of this study was to determine if teaching a mental health literacy program elicited any changes to teachers’ knowledge, understanding, and attitudes towards mental health. This study used both qualitative and quantitative data, in the form of reintervention and post-intervention surveys, participant journals, and a focus group interview, from three teacher participants to better understand the effects of teaching the Elementary Mental Health Literacy Resource (EMHLR). The results of this mixed methods study showed that there was little to no change in teacher’s attitudes towards mental health, a mental health literacy program was valuable for increasing teachers’ knowledge of mental health, there was concern around the terminology associated with mental health and stigma, and finally, the three teacher participants were able to critically reflect about the state of their own mental health and wellbeing and make changes accordingly.

Subjects: subject: Inclusive education

description: Today’s classrooms are busy, robust, and diverse spaces. Up to thirty children from all backgrounds and intellectual/physical abilities can be placed in one room with one teacher for the school year. Teachers fresh from graduation are expected to foster inclusive classrooms with the skills to meaningfully engage all learners. This study aims to interview six British Columbian novice teachers’ preparedness for teaching in these diverse classrooms. For the purpose of this study, novice teachers are defined as teachers within the first five years of their careers. Are these teachers adequately prepared for their university and practicum experiences? As many teachers are told within the first few days of their teacher education programs, recent research states that 50% of teachers will quit teaching within the first five years of their careers. Teacher burnout is often discussed in school districts, in professional development workshops, and on social media. This study will explore diversity in today’s classrooms, reveal university education program requirements and standards as mandated by the Ministry of Education, as well as outline first-hand experiences of teachers in our province. As inclusion is mandated by the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and is a human right, why are some novice teachers struggling to meaningfully include all their learners, while delivering a socially just education curriculum? Above all, this study will inform both an understanding of novice teachers’ experiences in inclusive classrooms and potential developments in teacher education programs that will be beneficial in ensuring quality education for each individual learner.

Finite-temperature linear conductance from the Matsubara Green function without analytic continuation to the real axis

description: We illustrate how to calculate the finite-temperature linear-response conductance of quantum impurity models from the Matsubara Green function. A continued fraction expansion of the Fermi distribution is employed which was recently introduced by Ozaki [Phys. Rev. B 75, 035123 (2007)] and converges much faster than the usual Matsubara representation. We give a simplified derivation of Ozaki's idea using concepts from many-body condensed matter theory and present results for the rate of convergence. In case that the Green function of some model of interest is only known numerically, interpolating between Matsubara frequencies is much more stable than carrying out an analytic continuation to the real axis. We demonstrate this explicitly by considering an infinite tight-binding chain with a single site impurity as an exactly-solvable test system, showing that it is advantageous to calculate transport properties directly on the imaginary axis. The formalism is applied to the single impurity Anderson model, and the linear conductance at finite temperatures is calculated reliably at small to intermediate Coulomb interactions by virtue of the Matsubara functional renormalization group. Thus, this quantum many-body method combined with the continued fraction expansion of the Fermi function constitutes a promising tool to address more complex quantum dot geometries at finite temperatures.

Making carbon price as an effective signal
Creators: name: Lee, Eun Hye
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: Carbon pricing is a rapidly spreading policy to mitigate GHG emissions. However, the current carbon price is not high enough to make an effective price signal. This study assesses the carbon tax policies in Sweden, British Columbia, and France as examples of high carbon tax rates. This work expands the scope of the carbon price impact incorporating explicit and implicit sources, focusing on a carbon tax and a fuel tax. The carbon prices are calculated by fuel types and weighted by their share in the Total Primary Energy Supply (TPES). A quantitative analysis shows that implicit fuel taxes mainly drive the carbon price signals, and the carbon pricing is skewed towards vehicle fuels, such as gasoline and diesel. The research considers the emission coverage of the carbon tax, an increasing price trajectory, and revenue management. The policy designs are all diverse in the three cases. Lessons are drawn from their experiences regarding allowing exemptions, expanding emission coverage by the carbon tax, setting an increasing price trajectory, and effectively managing revenue. In the beginning, it seems easier to allow exemptions to the sensitive industries and then to expand the emission coverage after allowing enough time for those industries to adjust. Increasing price trajectory is an essential quality for a sustainable carbon tax. In addition, revenue neutrality is not a must-have condition for successful carbon taxation. However, it is an undoubtedly effective strategy to persuade the public, framing the carbon tax as a tax shift, not as a tax increase. These findings point out the skewed carbon price signals even in jurisdictions with high carbon taxes. It suggests that more efforts need to be made to expand the carbon price signal, especially for the non-vehicle fuels and sectors. It can be suggested that policy makers who are considering implementing a new carbon tax or revising the current carbon tax policy need to consider the carbon price from implicit sources, such as fuel taxes, to have a comprehensive picture. Moreover, jurisdiction-specific contexts need to be carefully considered to make the tax policy a sustainable measure to combat climate change.

description: The remarkable precision of frequency comb (FC) lasers is transferred to the extreme ultraviolet (XUV, wavelengths shorter than 100 nm), a frequency region previously not accessable to these devices. A frequency comb at XUV wavelengths near 51 nm is generated by amplification and coherent upconversion of a pair of pulses originating from a near-infrared femtosecond FC laser. The phase coherence of the source in the XUV is demonstrated using Helium atoms as a ruler and phase detector. Signals in the form of stable Ramsey-like fringes with high contrast are observed when the FC laser is scanned over P states of Helium, from which the absolute transition frequency in the XUV can be extracted. This procedure yields a 4He ionization energy at h 5945204212(6) MHz, improved by nearly an order of magnitude in accuracy, thus challenging QED calculations of this two-electron system.

Walk and thrive? : the importance of low-income household access to mixed-use neighborhoods in the Metro Vancouver region
Creators: name: Shulman, Lili
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: The principal goal of this dissertation is to study whether mixed-use, pedestrian-oriented environments are universally accessible. Compact neighborhoods are viewed positively because they improve health and sustainable development, but access is limited to financially qualified populations (Riggs, 2016). Housing (un)affordability becomes a problem when land prices and home values rise as demand for inner-city neighborhoods, often characterized by mixed-use, pedestrian-oriented design (MUPOD), increases (Leinberger & Alfonzo, 2012). This dissertation explores the spatial distribution of MUPOD in the Metro Vancouver region (BC) and the health, housing, and demographic makeup of neighborhoods using a series of multiple linear regression models (2014/2015). This dissertation bridges planning research gaps on the impact of MUPOD on displacement, and the interactions between built form, health outcomes and housing prices. It is hypothesized that MUPOD is associated with gentrification and displacement. I find a negative relationship between MUPOD and health and social well-being (p>0.05) which contradicts the understanding that residents of compact environments benefit from improved health. Different built environments contribute to uneven health outcomes for communities of different socioeconomic status. Consequently, negative health impacts associated with increased demand for inner-city neighborhoods need to be acknowledged. The results exemplify gentrification processes in high MUPOD environments. A positive MUPOD/house value association is documented in Vancouver urban core whereas higher MUPOD scores predict reductions in house values in the Metro’s suburban periphery. Moreover, iv there is no statistically significant evidence to suggest household relocation from high MUPOD environments for affordability reasons. Unlike the study’s expectations, increased MUPOD levels are shown to predict higher percentages of low-income households earning under $40k. Perhaps, it is not low-income households who are displaced? Maybe they cannot even afford to move? While these results cannot be used to explain causation, they encourage discussion about relevant correlational associations, namely accessibility, health, housing, social inequality, and displacement. Future studies need to ask - what are the costs of staying? Policies need to be designed using social and health equity lenses to benefit all. Ultimately, a qualitative approach to explore these research questions is necessary to improve understanding of displacement processes.

description: New high resolution spectra of the short period (P~1.76 days) young detached binary LT CMa are reported for the first time. By combining the results from the analysis of new radial velocity curves and published light curves, we determine values for the masses, radii and temperatures as follows: M_1= 5.59 (0.20) M_o, R_1=3.56 (0.07) R_o and T_eff1= 17000 (500) K for the primary and M_2=3.36 (0.14) M_o, R_2= 2.04 (0.05) R_o and T_eff2= 13140 (800) K for the secondary. Static absorbtion features apart from those coming from the close binary components are detected in the several spectral regions. If these absorbtion features are from a third star, as the light curve solutions support, its radial velocity is measured to be RV_3=70(8) km s^-1. The orbit of the binary system is proved to be eccentric (e=0.059) and thus the apsidal motion exists. The estimated linear advance in longitude of periastron corresponds to an apsidal motion of U=694+/-5 yr for the system. The average internal structure constant log k_2,obs=-2.53 of LT CMa is found smaller than its theoretical value of log k_2,theo=-2.22 suggesting the stars would have more central concentration in mass. The photometric distance of LT CMa (d=535+/-45 pc) is found to be much smaller than the distance of CMa OB1 association (1150 pc) which rules out membership. A comparison with current stellar evolution models for solar metallicity indicates that LT CMa (35 Myr) is much older than the CMa OB1 association (3 Myr), confirming that LT CMa is not a member of CMa OB1. The kinematical and dynamical analysis indicate LT CMa is orbiting the Galaxy in a circular orbit and belongs to the young thin-disk population.

Then we prove that any connected Lie group isomorphic to a subgroup of IET is abelian. Additionally, we show that IET contains no infinite Kazhdan group. We also prove residual finiteness of finitely presented subgroups of IET and give an example of a two-generated subgroup of IET of exponential growth that contains an isomorphic copy of every finite group, and which is therefore not linear.

description: We have studied how the magnetic properties of oxygen-deficient EuO sputtered thin films vary as a function of thickness. The magnetic moment, measured by polarized neutron reflectometry, and the Curie temperature are found to decrease with reducing thickness. Our results indicate that the reduced number of nearest neighbors, band bending and the partial depopulation of the electronic states that carry the spins associated with the 4f orbitals of Eu are all contributing factors in the surface-induced change of the magnetic properties of EuO$_{1-x}$.

description: Let V be a variety of not necessarily associative algebras, and A an inverse limit of nilpotent algebras A_i\in V, such that some finitely generated subalgebra S \subseteq A is dense in A under the inverse limit of the discrete topologies on the A_i. A sufficient condition on V is obtained for all algebra homomorphisms from A to finite-dimensional algebras B to be continuous; in other words, for the kernels of all such homomorphisms to be open ideals. This condition is satisfied, in particular, if V is the variety of associative, Lie, or Jordan algebras. Examples are given showing the need for our hypotheses, and some open questions are noted.

description: It is known that the Meissner-like effect is seen in a magnetosphere without an electric current in black hole spacetime: no non-monopole component of magnetic flux penetrates the event horizon if the black hole is extreme. In this paper, in order to see how an electric current affects the Meissner-like effect, we study a force-free electromagnetic system in a static and spherically symmetric extreme black hole spacetime. By assuming that the rotational angular velocity of the magnetic field is very small, we construct a perturbative solution for the Grad-Shafranov equation, which is the basic equation to determine a stationary, axisymmetric electromagnetic field with a force-free electric current. Our perturbation analysis reveals that, if an electric current exists, higher multipole components may be superposed upon the monopole component on the event horizon, even if the black hole is extreme.

description: We investigate the phase diagram of hard-core bosons on a square lattice with competing interactions. The hard-core bosons can be represented also by spin-1/2 operators and the model can therefore be mapped onto an anisotropic $J_1$-$J_2$-Heisenberg model. We find the Néel state and a collinear antiferromagnetic state as classical ordered phases to be suppressed for small ferromagnetic exchange terms $J_{1,2}^{x,y}$ and a ferromagnetic phase which orders in the x-y-plane for large $J_{1,2}^{x,y}$. For an intermediate regime the emergence of new quantum states like valence bond crystals or super-solids is predicted for similar models. We do not observe any signal for long-range order in terms of conventional order or dimer correlations in our model and find an exponential decay in the spin correlations. Hence, all evidence is pointing towards a quantum disordered ground state for a small region in the phase diagram.

Global Dietary Habits in Relation to Adult Obesity

Publisher: name: QUBES Educational Resources

description: With global obesity rates continually increasing, an analysis of the relationship between dietary patterns and global obesity rates was performed with datasets representing sugar consumption, macronutrient percentage intake, and caloric intake. We hypothesized that high sugar consumption, an unbalanced macronutrient intake, and a high caloric intake lead to higher adult obesity percentages which were observed to be accurate. In 2019, countries with higher sugar consumption exhibited a relatively higher adult obesity rate. Global daily macronutrient data from 2005-2007 suggest that while a higher protein and fat intake leads to countries having higher adult obesity percentage, higher consumption of carbohydrates lead to a decline in adult obesity rates. Finally, when analyzing the potential relationship between caloric intake and adult obesity percentages in 2016, we did find there to be a positive relationship, indicating that higher caloric intake tends to result in higher obesity percentages for a country.

description: Quantum Monte Carlo (QMC) techniques are used to provide an approximation-free investigation of the phases of the one-dimensional attractive Hubbard Hamiltonian in the presence of population imbalance. The temperature at which the "Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov" (FFLO) phase is destroyed by thermal fluctuations is determined as a function of the polarization. It is shown that the presence of a confining potential does not dramatically alter the FFLO regime, and that recent experiments on trapped atomic gases likely lie just within the stable temperature range.

description: We use the mathematical structure of group algebras and $H^{+}$-algebras for describing certain problems concerning the quantum dynamics of systems of angular momenta, including also the spin systems. The underlying groups are ${\rm SU}(2)$ and its quotient ${\rm SO}(3,\mathbb{R})$. The scheme developed is applied in two different contexts. Firstly, the purely group-algebraic framework is applied to the system of angular momenta of arbitrary origin, e.g., orbital angular momenta of electrons and nucleons, systems of quantized angular momenta of rotating extended objects like molecules. The other promising area of applications is Schrödinger quantum mechanics of rigid body with its often rather unexpected and very interesting features. Even within this Schrödinger framework the algebras of operators related to group algebras are a very useful tool. We investigate some problems of composed systems and the quasiclassical limit obtained as the asymptotics of "large" quantum numbers, i.e., "quickly oscillating" functions on groups. They are related in an interesting way to geometry of the coadjoint orbits of ${\rm SU}(2)$.
title: Anthropogenic influences on the behavioural ecology of urban vervet monkeys
Creators: name: Thatcher, H
Publisher: name: Liverpool John Moores University
Year: 2021

description: An animal’s behaviour is dependent upon its ability to adapt to environmental changes and available resources; consequently, generalist omnivorous species thrive in the continually developing urban landscape and preferentially choose the urban setting over its rural counterpart. Our understanding of wildlife’s flexibility to anthropogenic change is developing; however, our knowledge of flexibility to the urban landscape is limited, particularly for primate species. Understanding an animal’s ability to adapt behaviourally to urban challenges is necessary to provide guidance for human-wildlife management plans. This thesis focuses broadly on the behavioural ecology of the adaptive, generalist vervet monkey (Chlorocebus pygerythrus). We use an integrative approach to assess the behavioural ecology of urban vervet monkeys under quantified anthropogenic pressures, assessing both positive (human-food) and negative (human-aggression) consequences of urban living. We use the previously neglected interaction between positive and negative human influences to assess ranging patterns and time budgets, showing a complex attraction-avoidance scale within the urban landscape. We also used social network analysis to show the importance of human-food consumption on vervet monkey social structure, both at the group and individual level. Finally, we suggest the use of a simple parasite protocol to monitor host-parasite responses to urbanisation. Overall, we provide primary evidence on the behavioural ecology and strategies of urban vervet monkeys, creating a foundation for future research on urban primates. We highlight trends in our findings, crucially the central value of human-food to vervet monkey’s behavioural flexibility. We apply this knowledge to suggest management recommendations, that future strategies should focus primarily on education to prevent opportunities for vervet monkeys to consume human-food, for the benefit of primate-human cohabitation.

Experimental investigations of the effect of surface roughness on high-acceleration film splitting between two substrates
Creators: name: Rostami, Arthur
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: Thin liquid film separation is an important part of many industrial processes and is relevant to “rewet” that can occur in the press section of a papermachine. The separation ratio, the mass of the remaining liquid on one (“the moving”) substrate after separation to the total mass of the initial liquid film between two substrates, is of particular interest in this thesis because reducing rewet reduces the energy consumption in the dryer section of a paper machine significantly. The focus of this study is the experimental measurement of high-acceleration separation of Newtonian liquid films trapped between two substrates. The behavior of the liquid bridges between smooth separating substrates has been a subject of past studies at low separation rates. A distinction of this study is the investigation of high-acceleration separation of the thin liquid bridging the gap between rough as well as smooth substrates. An experimental apparatus has been designed and manufactured that can produce average separation accelerations of up to 325 m/s2, initial bridge heights starting from 10 µm, and average surface roughness values of up to 86 µm. When the distance between substrates increases, a viscous fingering region is observed along the perimeter of the wetted area where air fingers grow radially inward, while in the center region, cavitation bubbles can emerge and grow until the two substrates are sufficiently separated such that the liquid bridges between them break. The separation ratio is meaningfully affected by the surface roughness, viscosity, and acceleration, creating variations of up to 20% in the separation ratio. It is hypothesized that the separation ratio is affected by the relative amounts of the flow field that are subject to viscous fingering and liquid cavitation. Two distinct separation processes, residual layer formation and fibrillation, corresponding to the two flow regimes have been suggested to explain the difference in the measured separation ratios of different cases. A laser-induced fluorescence (LIF) measurement system has been developed to measure the thickness distribution of the liquid bridges during the separation process, and the results of the LIF measurements are consistent with the suggested hypothesis.
