A theory for the generation of "intervals of pulsations of diminishing period"
Creators: name: Roxburgh, Kenneth R.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Micropulsation data recorded at Palo Alto, California during 1963-4 and Ralston, Alberta during 1967 have been used to study "Intervals of pulsations of diminishing period" (IPDP). IPDP's are found to be generated in the dusk-midnight quadrant of the magnetosphere at an equatorial distance of about 6 earth radii. An intensive study of the Ralston data reveals that IPDP's occur during the expansive phase of magnetospheric substorms. It is proposed that IPDP's are generated by a cyclotron instability between energetic protons and left-hand ion cyclotron waves. Their main characteristics are determined by the perturbations of the dusk-midnight sector of the magnetosphere by magnetospheric substorms. One of the main disturbances in that region is a slow decrease and then sudden increase in the magnetic field corresponding to the buildup and decay of a partial ring current. IPDP's show an increase in midfrequency due to the change in the cyclotron instability frequency produced by the increasing magnetic field. This theory is tested by a comparison of frequency increase of IPDP's observed at Ralston and magnetic field increase in the magnetosphere observed by the ATS-1 satellite. Other conditions necessary for IPDP generation are then discussed. It is shown that different combinations of these conditions result in the generation of hm emissions and band type micropulsations.

description: We present an atomic resolution scanning tunneling spectroscopy study of superconducting BaFe$_{1.8}$Co$_{0.2}$As$_2$ single crystals in magnetic fields up to $9 \text{Tesla}$. At zero field, a single gap with coherence peaks at $\overlineΔ=6.25 \text{meV}$ is observed in the density of states. At $9 \text{T}$ and $6 \text{T}$, we image a disordered vortex lattice, consistent with isotropic, single flux quantum vortices. Vortex locations are uncorrelated with strong scattering surface impurities, demonstrating bulk pinning. The vortex-induced sub-gap density of states fits an exponential decay from the vortex center, from which we extract a coherence length $ξ=27.6\pm 2.9 \textÅ$, corresponding to an upper critical field $H_{c2}=43 \text{T}$.

Creators: name: Karnoski, Ryan
Publisher: name: University of Washington
Year: 2017

description: As a disproportionately overrepresented group in public child welfare, Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender (LGBTQ) foster youth have unique health disparities and needs related to their marginalized identities. This thesis discusses current research related to healthcare providers and their experiences serving LGBTQ foster youth in Washington State. The purpose of this study is to better understand the experiences of healthcare providers working with LGBTQ foster youth to improve their health outcomes. This research is performed through eight semi-structured key informant interviews, which provide a qualitative assessment of the experiences of healthcare providers of the LGBTQ foster youth population of Washington State, as well as these providers’ insight into the intersectional issues of LGBTQ foster youth, including race, transgender and gender nonconforming identities, and homelessness.

description: This document provides an update and a more detailed review of the priorities on the use of computing clouds, including their storage and services, by the research community. Computing clouds and cloud storage are critical resources used by many researchers. The Alliance offers a community cloud service that is operated by the host sites (McGill University, Simon Fraser University, University of Toronto, University of Victoria and University of Waterloo). Currently, the Alliance does not support the use of commercial computing cloud resources but is considering them as an important service offering in the coming years to the research community. Currently, the use of commercial clouds with the research community is done on an ad hoc basis, funded either by an institution or through grants held by individual researchers.

Physical collisions of moonlets and clumps with the Saturn's F-ring core
Creators: name: Charnoz, Sebastien
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Earth and Planetary Astrophysics (astro-ph.EP)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Since 2004, observations of Saturn's F ring have revealed that the ring's core is surrounded by structures with radial scales of hundreds of kilometers, called "spirals" and "jets". Gravitational scattering by nearby moons was suggested as a potential production mechanism; however, it remained doubtful because a population of Prometheus-mass moons is needed and, obviously, such a population does not exist in the F ring region. We investigate here another mechanism: dissipative physical collisions of kilometer-size moonlets (or clumps) with the F-ring core. We show that it is a viable and efficient mechanism for producing spirals and jets, provided that massive moonlets are embedded in the F-ring core and that they are impacted by loose clumps orbiting in the F ring region, which could be consistent with recent data from ISS, VIMS and UVIS. We show also that coefficients of restitution as low as ~0.1 are needed to reproduce the radial extent of spirals and jets, suggesting that collisions are very dissipative in the F ring region. In conclusion, spirals and jets would be the direct manifestation the ongoing collisional activity of the F ring region.

Homeotopy groups of leaf spaces of one-dimensional foliations on non-compact surfaces with non-compact leaves

description: Let $Z$ be a non-compact two-dimensional manifold obtained from a family of open strips $\mathbb{R}\times(0,1)$ with boundary intervals by gluing those strips along some pairs of their boundary intervals. Every such strip has a natural foliation into parallel lines $\mathbb{R}\times t$, $t\in(0,1)$, and boundary intervals which gives a foliation $Δ$ on all of $Z$. Denote by $\mathcal{H}(Z,Δ)$ the group of all homeomorphisms of $Z$ that maps leaves of $Δ$ onto leaves and by $\mathcal{H}(Z/Δ)$ the group of homeomorphisms of the space of leaves endowed with the corresponding compact open topologies. Recently, the authors identified the homeotopy group $π_0\mathcal{H}(Z,Δ)$ with a group of automorphisms of a certain graph $G$ with the additional structure which encodes the combinatorics of gluing $Z$ from strips. That graph is in a certain sense dual to the space of leaves $Z/Δ$. On the other hand, for every $h\in\mathcal{H}(Z,Δ)$ the induced permutation $k$ of leaves of $Δ$ is in fact a homeomorphism of $Z/Δ$ and the correspondence $h\mapsto k$ is a homomorphism $ψ:\mathcal{H}(Δ)\to\mathcal{H}(Z/Δ)$. The aim of the present paper is to show that $ψ$ induces a homomorphism of the corresponding homeotopy groups $ψ_0:π_0\mathcal{H}(Z,Δ)\toπ_0\mathcal{H}(Z/Δ)$ which turns out to be either injective or having a kernel $\mathbb{Z}_2$. This gives a dual description of $π_0\mathcal{H}(Z,Δ)$ in terms of the space of leaves.

description: We present the first results from a series of observations conducted with the Westerbork telescope in the 140--160 MHz range with a 2 arcmin resolution aimed at characterizing the properties of the foregrounds for epoch of reionization experiments. For the first time we have detected fluctuations in the Galactic diffuse emission on scales greater than 13 arcmin at 150 MHz, in the low Galactic latitude area known as Fan region. Those fluctuations have an $rms$ of 14 K. The total intensity power spectrum shows a power--law behaviour down to $\ell \sim 900$ with slope $β^I_\ell = -2.2 \pm 0.3$. The detection of diffuse emission at smaller angular scales is limited by residual point sources. We measured an $rms$ confusion noise of $\sim$3 mJy beam$^{-1}$. Diffuse polarized emission was also detected for the first time at this frequency. The polarized signal shows complex structure both spatially and along the line of sight. The polarization power spectrum shows a power--law behaviour down to $\ell \sim 2700$ with slope $β^P_\ell = -1.65 \pm 0.15$. The $rms$ of polarization fluctuations is 7.2 K on 4 arcmin scales. By extrapolating the measured spectrum of total intensity emission, we find a contamination on the cosmological signal of $δT= \sqrt{\ell (\ell+1) C^I_\ell / 2π} \sim 5.7$ K on 5 arcmin scales and a corresponding $rms$ value of $\sim$18.3 K at the same angular scale. The level of the polarization power spectrum is $δT \sim 3.3$ K on 5 arcmin scales. Given its exceptionally bright polarized signal, the Fan region is likely to represent an upper limit on the sky brightness at moderate and high Galactic latitude.

Axisymmetric magnetic fields in stars: relative strengths of poloidal and toroidal components
Creators: name: Braithwaite, J.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this third paper in a series on stable magnetic equilibria in stars, I look at the stability of axisymmetric field configurations and in particular at the relative strengths of the toroidal and poloidal components. Both toroidal and poloidal fields are unstable on their own, and stability is achieved by adding the two together in some ratio. I use Tayler's (1973) stability conditions for toroidal fields and other analytic tools to predict the range of stable ratios and then check these predictions by running numerical simulations. It is found that while the poloidal field can account for no more than approximately 80% of the total energy, it can account for a very small fraction of the energy, i.e. that the toroidal field can be -- and is likely to be -- significantly stronger than the poloidal. Furthermore, the weaker the field, the weaker the poloidal component can be in relation to the toroidal. The implications of this result are discussed in various contexts such as the emission of gravitational waves by neutron stars, free precession, and a `hidden' energy source for magnetars.

It satisfies the proper conservation laws, particularly, it conserves the generalized momentum, the latter property eliminates the symmetry-breaking runaway solution. The equation allows a consistent calculation of the electron current, the radiation effect on the electron momentum, and the radiation itself, for a single electron or plasma electrons in strong electromagnetic fields. The equation is applied to a simulation of a strong laser pulse interaction with a plasma target. Some analytical solutions are also provided.

description: We consider the finite-temperature frequency and momentum dependent two-point functions of local operators in integrable quantum field theories. We focus on the case where the zero temperature correlation function is dominated by a delta-function line arising from the coherent propagation of single particle modes. Our specific examples are the two-point function of spin fields in the disordered phase of the quantum Ising and the O(3) nonlinear sigma models. We employ a Lehmann representation in terms of the known exact zero-temperature form factors to carry out a low-temperature expansion of two-point functions. We present two different but equivalent methods of regularizing the divergences present in the Lehmann expansion: one directly regulates the integral expressions of the squares of matrix elements in the infinite volume whereas the other operates through subtracting divergences in a large, finite volume. Our central results are that the temperature broadening of the line shape exhibits a pronounced asymmetry and a shift of the maximum upwards in energy ("temperature dependent gap"). The field theory results presented here describe the scaling limits of the dynamical structure factor in the quantum Ising and integer spin Heisenberg chains. We discuss the relevance of our results for the analysis of inelastic neutron scattering experiments on gapped spin chain systems such as CsNiCl3 and YBaNiO5.

Subspecies: G. d. palmyrae Lehmann, 1966, G. d. leosollicitus Lehmann, 1966 and G. d. dasyroides (Nehring, 1901).
Distribution: Common to semi-arid steppes and plains. It was recorded in rocky areas, open plains, and on banks of the Barada River (Fig. 28).
Previous records: Vicinity of Aleppo, Deir Al-Hajar, and Palmyra (Lehmann 1966; Kumerloeve 1975), southeast steppe (Harrison & Bates 1991), and Karahta, Ain Arab, and Sakra (Shehab et al. 2018).
Recent record: Adra (2020).
Remarks: The name used by earlier authors was Dipodillus (Petteromys) dasyurus (Wagner, 1842). Several subspecies were recognized in the past: G. d. palmyrae Lehmann, 1966 described from Palmyra, G. d. leosollicitus Lehmann, 1966 from Deir Al-Hajar near Damascus and the vicinity of Aleppo (Lehmann 1966), and G. d. dasyroides (Nehring, 1901) from the southeastern steppes. Colour of the dorsal pelage varies in a mosaic manner, matching soil colour and other environmental factors (Harrison & Bates 1991). However, Burgin et al. (2020) reported Wagner’s gerbil as a monotypic species.

Solid source lead isotope studies with application to rock samples from the Superior geological province
Creators: name: Ozard, John Malcolm
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Data of good quality is necessary to further the study of rock lead isotopic interpretations. An internal standard (double-spike) was employed to correct for fractionation accompanying the single filament analyses, and lead isotope ratios with a standard deviation of 0.15% were obtained. Lead sulphide mounted on tantalum was employed for the lead analyses. Discrimination in the analyses using tantalum filaments was consistent with the theoretical fractionation laws. This was not found to be the case for rhenium. Lead and uranium analyses from the Vogt-Hobbs area near Lake Timagami, Ontario and from the Rice Lake-Beresford Lake Area, Manitoba revealed variations from a simple two stage model that could not be accounted for by experimental error. Interpretation of the data yields a three stage history for both of these regions, marked by major events at approximately 3400 and 2600 my ago. This earlier crustal history is supported by ore lead data from the vicinity. Both of the suites have a lower average value of (U238/Pb204) for the second stage, of their three stage history, than is characteristic of the source of single stage leads. Variations from closed system behaviour for the Ontario samples is attributed to lead remobilization at the time of the Grenville event. Remobilization of the lead tends to mask the 2600 my old event. The Vogt-Hobbs area is characterized by more acidic igneous rocks and more radiogenic lead than the Rice Lake-Beresford Lake area. These differences are thought to represent the environment 2600 my ago or earlier. The Manitouwadge lead analysed by Ostic resembles the lead - 2600 my ago in the Rice Lake-Beresford Lake rock samples. The Rice Lake-Beresford Lake rock samples are shown according to the interpretation presented, to have had a crustal history prior to 2600 my ago. This lends weight to arguments that exclude Manitouwadge from the class of single stage leads used in calculations of the age of the earth.

description: Nano-titanium dioxide (nano-TiO2) is widely used in many aspects of human life. However, there are still inconsistent conclusions about the effects of nano-TiO2 exposure on autophagy. Therefore, a systematic review and meta-analysis were used to reveal whether nano-TiO2 induces dysregulation of autophagy. The results showed that LC3 II, Beclin-1 protein, and LC3 II/LC3 I protein ratio were significantly increased, but p62 protein was insignificantly changed. Subgroup analyses showed that p62 and Beclin-1 protein were increased significantly when the treatment time of nano-TiO2 was >24 h. Nano-TiO2 can induce dysregulation of autophagy and cause stagnation of autophagy after prolonged exposure.
Isotopic composition of gadolinium, samarium and europium in the Abee meteorite
Creators: name: Loveless, Arthur John
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The writer has measured the isotopic composition of gadolinium, europium and samarium in the Abee meteorite and in two terrestrial ores. Gd, Eu and Sm have large thermal neutron capture cross sections; they may therefore be used to reveal differences in the irradiation histories of samples containing trace amounts of these elements. It is widely believed that the contracting protosun passed through a phase of high energy particle radiation during the early history of the solar system. The interaction of these particles with the material of the solar nebula may have produced a large thermal neutron flux. The Abee enstatite chondrite is representative of the most highly reduced class of chondritic meteorites. The chondrites are stones which are thought to be very primitive material of the solar system. Mason, Miyashiro and others have proposed that variations in the oxidation state of chondrites result from their formation in different regions of the nebula: the enstatite chondrites represent material which was derived from the hot inner region of the solar nebula, while the highly oxidized carbonaceous chondrites had their origin in the cooler, outer region. On the basis of this theory, the earth was probably derived from an intermediate region of the nebula. Isotopic analyses were performed on microgram quantities of Gd, Eu and Sm. A precision of 0.02-0.2% (at the 95% confidence level) was achieved for all isotopic ratios of interest. Prior to 1970 the best published isotopic analyses of these elements had a precision of 1-2%. The higher precision reported here was made possible through improvements in the mass spectrometer ion optics and the use of digital recording of mass spectra. This work is comparable to recent meteorite analyses on Gd by Eugster, Tera, Burnett and Wasserburg at the California Institute of Technology, although their lunar analyses were of superior quality and had a precision of 0.01%. No significant Gd, Eu or Sm isotopic anomalies were observed for the Abee and terrestrial samples. The Gd¹⁵⁷/Gd¹⁵⁸ ratio, which is the most sensitive to neutron irradiation, was identical for the three samples studied within 0.1%. This places an upper limit of 3 x 10¹⁵ neutrons/cm² for the differential irradiation of the source material from which the earth and the Abee meteorite were derived. A similar conclusion was reported by the Caltech group. The absence of any anomalies may be attributed to uniform irradiation and dilution of the source material, efficient shielding inside large planetary bodies during the irradiation phase, the absence of an intense irradiation phase, or a common spatial origin within the solar nebula for chondritic and terrestrial matter.

description: The findings from this case study (Exton, 2008) add to the research on effective teacher education programs. The researcher found six factors which contributed to developing teacher identity among secondary teachers who participated in an American Indian teacher education program. The first three factors (personal, home, and community beliefs) were: 1) giving back to American Indian communities, 2) serving American Indian students, and 3) becoming empowered as American Indian teachers. The next three factors (school-based experiences) were:  4) cohort-based peer support, 5) preparation for content area expertise, and 6) teachers as role models.
One of the most significant lessons from Exton’s research is about program continuity: there will be gaps in the pipeline of American Indian teachers as long as tribes are dependent on competitive government grants to support teacher education programs. The take-away message is that community partnerships between tribes, school districts, colleges and universities, and business leaders need to be maintained for long-term educational goals. Training American Indian teachers is an investment in the diversity of all communities.

description: The LHCb experiment will enter the High Luminosity phase during the Run 4 of the LHC. In order to fully exploit the flavour opportunities of the HL-LHC, an upgrade of the detector, the LHCb Upgrade II, will be installed during the LS4 (2030), targeting an instantaneous luminosity of 1-2 10^34 cm^-2 s^-1 and aiming at collecting an integrated luminosity of 300 fb^-1. With the higher luminosity the mean number of interactions at each bunch crossing will increase up to ? ? 50, resulting in a significant increase of the total number of tracks per each event, and providing a challenging environment for the track reconstruction, which has to be performed in real time at the visible crossing rate of 30 MHz. The introduction of precise timing detectors will be crucial to mitigate the pile-up effects, allowing the LHCb experiment to exploit larger data samples and keep producing high quality measurements. The author presents a 4D real-time tracking device capable of reconstructing four dimensional particle tracjectories in real time using precise space and time information of the hits, to be applied to a possible Upgrade II of the VELO sub-detector. The proposed fast track finding device is implemented in commercial FPGAs with a modular and highly parallelized and pipelined architecture to work at high rates and with latency below 1 ?s. The performance of the 4D fast tracking algorithm and its hardware implementation have been tested on a custom board equipped with latest generation FPGAs (Xilinx Virtex UltraScale) and high input data bandwidth (up to 1.6 Tbps). The demonstrator prototype has been tested with simulated data from a sector (? 1/64) of the LHCb VELO and has to be considered as a proof of principle of a large scale system able to process the full detector.

description: The percolation transitions on hyperbolic lattices are investigated numerically using finite-size scaling methods. The existence of two distinct percolation thresholds is verified. At the lower threshold, an unbounded cluster appears and reaches from the middle to the boundary. This transition is of the same type and has the same finite-size scaling properties as the corresponding transition for the Cayley tree. At the upper threshold, on the other hand, a single unbounded cluster forms which overwhelms all the others and occupies a finite fraction of the volume as well as of the boundary connections. The finite-size scaling properties for this upper threshold are different from those of the Cayley tree and two of the critical exponents are obtained. The results suggest that the percolation transition for the hyperbolic lattices forms a universality class of its own.

Anthocyanins rescue Macrophage infiltration in a Drosophila model of obesity
Creators: name: VALENZA, ALICE MARIA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2019

description: For years, scientific research has availed itself of the opportunity of using animal models to understand the cellular and molecular mechanisms that regulate several human diseases. In this thesis, I showed the great importance to employ Drosophila melanogaster as model organism for the study of chronic diseases. Drosophila is considered an excellent and innovative model thanks to its peculiar characteristics such as low cost, small genome size, short generation time. About 75% of human disease-causing genes have functional homologs in Drosophila; furthermore, the fruit fly shows extreme genetic flexibility and a number of genetic systems has been developed to answer specific biological questions, such as the UAS-GAL4 binary system that allows the expression of target genes in a tissue-specific manner. For all these reasons, Drosophila can be used for the study of different metabolic diseases among which obesity. In particular, in our laboratory we created a new Drosophila model of obesity that shows similar characteristics as those present in obese people, promoting an Adipose Tissue Macrophages infiltration (ATM) phenotype. Using this new model of obesity, I tried to understand the role of important compounds like Flavonoids and Anthocyanins, both considered anti-inflammatory and antioxidant agents, which regular consumption reduces the risk to develop metabolic disorders. Anthocyanins represent the major red, purple, and blu pigment in many plants and fruits. I have discovered that Anthocyanins are able to rescue the ATM phenotype by reducing the Drosophila hemocytes (similar to human macrophages) migration in the larval fat body, which carries out human adipose tissue and liver functions. Anthocyanins also show potential health benefits by reducing ROS levels, thus acting as antioxidant agents. This antioxidant activity may be due to the capacity to modulate the expression of some redox regulators like Glutathione-S-Transferase (GST) and the Nuclear factor erythroid 2-Related Factor 2 (NRF2).

The Neel temperature and sublattice magnetization for the stacked triangular-lattice antiferromagnet with a weak interlayer coupling

description: The quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the stacked triangular lattice with the intralayer nearest-neighbor exchange interaction J and interlayer exchange J' is considered within the non-linear $σ$-model with the use of the renormalization group (RG) approach. For J' << J the asymptotic formula for the Neel temperature $T_{Neel}$ and sublattice magnetization are obtained. RG turns out to be insufficient to describe experimental data since it does not take into account the $\mathcal{Z}_2$-vortices. Therefore $T_{Neel}$ is estimated using the Monte-Carlo result for the 2D correlation length [10] which has a Kosterlitz-type behavior near the temperature $T_{KT}$ where the vortices are activated.

description: Stalks of brinjal (Solanum melongena), hereinafter SM, have been exercised as an efficient and sustainable adsorbent material for the elimination of Eriochrome Black-T (EBT) from an aqueous solution. The material was characterized by FTIR, FESEM, BET surface area, pHpzc, and proximate analysis. FTIR spectrum suggests the presence of polyphenolic moieties, responsible for successful dye binding. FESEM images show an unprecedented octopus-like texture containing micropores. The central head transforms the architecture of a flower. The evaluated BET surface area of 10.042 m2/g and pore volume 1.055 × 10−2 cm3/g suggest a porous material. The pHpzc of the material was evaluated to be 7.05, and under optimized conditions, the maximum adsorption capacity was found 52.631 mg/g at pH 7. The operational parameters were studied concerning contact time (0–90 min), pH (5–11), initial concentration (10–40 mg/L), and interfering ions (PO4−3, AsO4−3, Hg+2, Pb+2). Adsorption follows Langmuir isotherm best (R2 = 0.996), and pseudo-second-order kinetics (R2 = 0.991) indicate a monolayer and homogeneous adsorption. 83% regeneration was successful with 0.1(M) sodium hydroxide solution. The material can be reused for up to three cycles with 90% efficiency retention. Analysis of EBT containing industrial effluent indicates that 52.62% of EBT can be removed. Brinjal (Solanum melongena), being one of the most cultivated vegetables around the globe, generates voluminous waste as stalks which warrant proper management. With this aim, such stalks were converted to a phytosorbent and selected for removal of Eriochrome black-T (EBT), a dye that is used by industry persons and science students in their laboratory experiments. The prepared material is highly porous, water-stable, regenerable, and reusable. The protocol is economically viable, easy, and efficient for industrial effluent treatment as well. With a notable maximum adsorption capacity of 52.631 mg/g, the material could offer an ideal choice for dye decontamination.
A review of linear response theory for general differentiable dynamical systems
Creators: name: Ruelle, David
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Chaotic Dynamics (nlin.CD)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The classical theory of linear response applies to statistical mechanics close to equilibrium. Away from equilibrium, one may describe the microscopic time evolution by a general differentiable dynamical system, identify nonequilibrium steady states (NESS), and study how these vary under perturbations of the dynamics. Remarkably, it turns out that for uniformly hyperbolic dynamical systems (those satisfying the "chaotic hypothesis"), the linear response away from equilibrium is very similar to the linear response close to equilibrium: the Kramers-Kronig dispersion relations hold, and the fluctuation-dispersion theorem survives in a modified form (which takes into account the oscillations around the "attractor" corresponding to the NESS). If the chaotic hypothesis does not hold, two new phenomena may arise. The first is a violation of linear response in the sense that the NESS does not depend differentiably on parameters (but this nondifferentiability may be hard to see experimentally). The second phenomenon is a violation of the dispersion relations: the susceptibility has singularities in the upper half complex plane. These "acausal" singularities are actually due to "energy nonconservation": for a small periodic perturbation of the system, the amplitude of the linear response is arbitrarily large. This means that the NESS of the dynamical system under study is not "inert" but can give energy to the outside world. An "active" NESS of this sort is very different from an equilibrium state, and it would be interesting to see what happens for active states to the Gallavotti-Cohen fluctuation theorem.

Geomagnetic variation anomaly at Kootenay Lake, B.C.
Creators: name: Lajoie, Jules Joseph
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The purpose of this thesis was to study the geomagnetic variation anomaly at Kootenay Lake, B.C., first reported by Hyndman in 1963. The anomaly is characterized by a very high correlation between the vertical and horizontal north-south geomagnetic components; this indicates anomalous currents striking magnetic east-west, to the south of Kootenay Lake. During the summer of 1968, twenty recording stations were set up in the Kootenay Lake area, using four Askania variographs and three fluxgate magnetometers. Spectral analysis shows that the main 'low I - high I' discontinuity was traversed over a relatively short distance on a north-south profile, to the south of Kootenay Lake. Polarization studies indicate anomalous currents striking magnetic east-west in the same general area of the above discontinuity. The model proposed is a localized distortion of the main 'low I - high I’ discontinuity, resulting in a well defined conductivity step, striking magnetic east-west, to the south of Kootenay Lake.
