description: We present analytical solutions to three qubits and a single-mode cavity coupling system beyond the rotating-wave approximation (RWA). The zero-th order approximation gives correct solutions when the qubits are far detuned from the cavity. The first order approximation, called generalized rotating-wave approximation (GRWA), produces an effective solvable Hamiltonian with the same form as the ordinary RWA one and exhibits substantial improvements of energy levels over the RWA even on resonance. Based on these analytical eigen-solutions, we study both the bipartite entanglement and genuine multipartite entanglement (GME). The dynamics of the concurrence and the GME using the GRWA are in consistent with the numerical ones. Interestingly, the well known sudden death of entanglement occurs in the bipartite entanglement dynamics but not in GME dynamics.

description: This paper reviews recent advances in photonic-assisted radio-frequency arbitrary waveform generation (RF-AWG), with emphasis on programmable ultrabroadband microwave and millimeter-wave waveforms. The key enabling components in these techniques are programmable optical pulse shaping, frequency-to-time mapping via dispersive propagation, and high-speed photodetection. The main advantages and challenges of several different photonic RF-AWG schemes are discussed. We further review some proof-of-concept demonstrations of ultrabroadband RF-AWG applications, including high-resolution ranging and ultrabroadband non-line-of-sight channel compensation. Finally, we present recent progress toward RF-AWG with increased time aperture and time-bandwidth product.

description: Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen (EPR) steering allows two parties to verify their entanglement, even if one party's measurements are untrusted. This concept has not only provided new insights into the nature of non-local spatial correlations in quantum mechanics, but also serves as a resource for one-sided device-independent quantum information tasks. Here, we investigate how EPR steering behaves when one-half of a maximally-entangled pair of qudits (multidimensional quantum systems) is cloned by a universal cloning machine. We find that EPR steering, as verified by a criterion based on the mutual information between qudits, can only be found in one of the copy subsystems but not both. We prove that this is also true for the single-system analogue of EPR steering. We find that this restriction, which we term "no-cloning of quantum steering", elucidates the physical reason why steering can be used to secure sources and channels against cloning-based attacks when implementing quantum communication and quantum computation protocols.

description: The climate impact of aviation is mainly due to the emission of species such as CO2 , water vapour, NOx, and contrails. The non-CO2 effects contribute more significantly than CO2 warming, particularly NOx and contrails. This research analyzes the impact of changing turbofan engine design on the climate, taking into account the major non-CO2 effects. The climate impact of the emissions due to the conventional kerosene-based Jet A-1 as well as that due to the lifecycle emissions of one of the CORSIA-eligible SAFs is analyzed. A detailed methodology consisting of aircraft/engine performance estimation, emission prediction, and climate impact evaluation is implemented for a subset of the global A320 flight network. The tradeoff between different species\' responses and the fuel consumption change is analyzed. It was found that for the considered fleet and growth trend, contrails contribute the largest towards the total climate response, and thus, are the driving factor of the total response change. The implementation of SAF reduces CO2 and contrail-related climate effects significantly, enabling engines with higher pressure ratios to have an improved climate response than the conventional Jet A-1 fuel-driven designs.

HIV as a Risk Factor for Multi-Drug Resistant Tuberculosis: A Systematic Review

description: Winstone Zulu is featured prominently in a tuberculosis (TB) and HIV awareness campaign sponsored by the Stop TB Partnership, a network of organizations, countries and donors that have made the elimination of tuberculosis a priority. He is a Zambian who contracted HIV and later acquired infection with TB. He managed to survive the coinfection when so many around him, including four of his brothers, died of tuberculosis in the 1990s. This defining experience led him to become a leading advocate for TB and HIV patients worldwide. Like those in his family, many people in sub-Saharan Africa and throughout the world who suffer from TB and HIV do not survive the deadly combination. The terrifying consequences of the two infections have now become even graver- a newer threat of multi-drug resistant TB (MDR-TB) jeopardizes what little control there is now over the dual epidemic. Understanding the relationship between HIV and MDR-TB has profound implications for the many people like Winstone Zulu's brothers, who have all but received a death sentence.

 Sporocarps gregarious, stalked, total height 1.1–1.5 mm. Sporocysts ovate or subcylindrical, bronze, blue, or violet. Stalk 0.5–1 mm long, up to 1/3 to 1/2 of total height, 0.2–0.4 mm diam., irregular cylindric, often slightly swollen in the middle, brownish black, oily deposits. Columella absent. Capillitium dark brown to purplish brown in transmitted light, branched and anastomosed threads, and bearing nodules of pale orange or red wax in the axils, which are colourless at the tips. Spore s mass dark brown. crystal violet, warted, 7–8 μm in diam.
 Specimens examined:— CHINA. Liaoning Province: Wushun City, Qingyuan Country, Dasu Forest, on the bark of a dead log, 7 September 2012, Zhang Bo 2016121201 (HMJAU11032).
 Comments:— Approximately four Elaeomyxa species have been reported worldwide (Kirk et al. 2008, Lado 2001, 2005 –15), of which E. reticulospora have reticulated spores and three species have spines or verrucose spores. Elaeomyxa miyazakiensis was originally described by Emoto (1935) as having oil granules in the peridium and expansion of the capillitium. Elaeomyxa miyazakiensis has some resemblance to Diachea, but in that genus, there are no expansions in the capillitium and the material inside is lime. This species has been recorded in Japan (Emoto 1935) and America (Stephenson et al. 2001). The Liaoning specimens have smaller spores (7–8 μm in diam.) than other specimens (8–10 μm in diam.). The Liaoning and type specimens had a similar habitat (dead logs).

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2015

description: Purpose: Examine whether chiropractic contributions to public health prevention literature have increased in response to the passage of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA). Method: A systematic review of the literature through PubMed and Ovid searches performed on the key words; chiropractic, public health, and prevention in the U.S. Works were captured 5 years prior to, and 5 years after the passage of the ACA using set inclusion criteria. Results: 100 abstracts and 24 full-length articles were reviewed. The rate of publications meeting selection criteria ranged from 0.22 articles per preceding passage of the ACA, to 0.17 articles per following passage. A diverse group of article topics were captured. Despite chiropractic's historical foundation in treating the spine, this review did not capture a concentration of articles exploring low back pain prevention at a community level. Conclusion: The chiropractic contributions to the literature do not appear to have been greatly influenced by the ACA. Based upon the expected course of future public health direction, it appears that there is a role for leaders in public health and chiropractic to facilitate additional contributions to the public health prevention literature.

description: We report polarimetric measurements of geometric phases that are generated by evolving polarized photons along non-geodesic trajectories on the Poincaré sphere. The core of our polarimetric array consists of seven wave plates that are traversed by a single photon beam. With this array any SU(2) transformation can be realized. By exploiting the gauge invariance of geometric phases under U(1) local transformations, we nullify the dynamical contribution to the total phase, thereby making the latter coincide with the geometric phase. We demonstrate our arrangement to be insensitive to various sources of noise entering it. This makes the single-beam, polarimetric array a promising, versatile tool for testing robustness of geometric phases against noise.

description: Objective: To explore the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on Black adolescent girls' physical, psychological, and sexual development. Methods: Semistructured interviews were conducted with 25 girls (9-18 years old) primarily across the Midwestern United States. Interviews were conducted until theoretical saturation was reached. We conducted a conventional content analysis by reviewing transcripts, coding data, and developing themes. Results: Utilizing the social-ecological model findings revealed themes related to the individual-, interpersonal-, institutional-, and community-level changes that Black girls experienced during the COVID-19 pandemic. Conclusions: Black adolescent girls need opportunities to discuss the changes, receive relevant resources, and have spaces to support their physical, psychological, and sexual development. Systems such as families, schools, and clinics should implement programming to facilitate discussions around the impact of COVID-19 on Black girls.

Exploiting high-efficiency superconducting detectors, the gain, the fidelity and the performance of the amplifier are studied as a function of loss. We also demonstrate the first heralded Fock-state qubit amplifier without post-selection. This provides a significant advance towards demonstrating Device-Independent Quantum Key Distribution as well as fundamental tests of quantum mechanics over extended distances.

The HFS frequency calibration is performed by employing a phase-type waveguide electro-optic modulator together with a stable confocal Fabry-Perot cavity. From the measured HFS between F"= 3 and F"= 4 manifolds of Cs 7S1/2 state [HFS = 2183.273(37) MHz], we have determined the magnetic dipole hyperfine coupling constant [A = 545.818(09) MHz], which is in good agreement with the previous work but much more accurate.

description: Over two-thirds of adolescents living with HIV worldwide reside in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Despite widespread availability and access to evidence-based HIV prevention and treatment, dissemination has been inadequate. This commentary distinguishes between implementation and dissemination, reflecting on the unique barriers to dissemination of evidence-based programs in SSA. We present a seven-strategy blueprint developed by United States Agency for International Development (USAID) that emphasizes targeted communication about research findings. Two case studies from the Adolescent HIV Implementation Science Alliance are presented to illustrate the value of planning for dissemination. We propose recommendations to strengthen dissemination recognizing that these may not be possible or appropriate in all situations, including developing a plan early in the process, engaging a dissemination technical team for support, the application of methodological rigor and theory to inform dissemination, active involvement of youth voices and digital tools to maximize message reach, and a keen recognition of evolving contexts and shifting priorities in order to nimbly tailor messages as needed.

description: In an effort to respond to the unmet needs of public health professionals for training related to bioterrorism, emergency response and disaster preparedness, the Public Health Leadership Program (PHLP) and the North Carolina Center for Public Health Preparedness (NCCPHP) are developing a new course to be taught in the Spring of 2004 at the University of North Carolina School of Public Health. Introduction to Public Health Preparedness will be based on the Public Health Preparedness Core Capacities for Threats and Emergencies and the Core Emergency Preparedness Competencies for All Public Health Workers. The course responds to needs identified in assessments of state and local level public health professionals in North Carolina, as well as the recommendations of national groups such as the Institute of Medicine's recent report, Who Will Keep the Public Healthy? This paper describes the background for why this course was developed and summarizes the process for developing the course. It also describes the modules of the course, with appendices including a complete syllabus, as well as sample assessments, case studies and evaluations. In order to meet the needs of public health professionals as efficiently and effectively as possible, this course will take advantage of the existing resources of a leading academic center for public health and a center for public health preparedness practice center. Using distance-learning technology and case study based discussion forums, this course will provide accessible and relevant training through a partnership that will fulfill both the School of Public Health and the Preparedness Center's responsibility to assure that appropriate, quality education and training are available to the current and future public health workforce (IOM, 2003). This course will strive to meet the training needs of the public health workforce as required to apply their current skills in the context of bioterrorism, disasters and emergencies and to develop the new skills in leadership, strategic planning, communication and teamwork necessary to provide an effective response to emerging threats.

description: In the present work, we combine the notion of $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetry with that of super-symmetry (SUSY) for a prototypical case example with a complex potential that is related by SUSY to the so-called P{ö}schl-Teller potential which is real. Not only are we able to identify and numerically confirm the eigenvalues of the relevant problem, but we also show that the corresponding nonlinear problem, in the presence of an arbitrary power law nonlinearity, has an exact bright soliton solution that can be analytically identified and has intriguing stability properties, such as an oscillatory instability, which the corresponding solution of the regular nonlinear Schr{ö}dinger equation with arbitrary power law nonlinearity does not possess. The spectral properties and dynamical implications of this instability are examined. We believe that these findings may pave the way towards initiating a fruitful interplay between the notions of $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetry, super-symmetric partner potentials and nonlinear interactions.

Simulations of Alfven wave driving of the solar chromosphere - efficient heating and spicule launching

Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)

description: Two of the central problems in our understanding of the solar chromosphere are how the upper chromosphere is heated and what drives spicules. Estimates of the required chromospheric heating, based on radiative and conductive losses suggest a rate of ${\sim} 0.1 \mathrm{\:erg\:cm^{-3}\:s^{-1}}$ in the lower chromosphere dropping to ${\sim} 10^{-3} \mathrm{\:erg\:cm^{-3}\:s^{-1}}$ in the upper chromosphere (\citet{Avrett1981}). The chromosphere is also permeated by spicules, higher density plasma from the lower atmosphere propelled upwards at speeds of ${\sim} 10-20 \mathrm{\:km\:s^{-1}}$, for so called Type-I spicules (\citet{Pereira2012,Zhang2012}), reaching heights of ${\sim} 3000-5000 \mathrm{\:km}$ above the photosphere. A clearer understanding of chromospheric dynamics, its heating and the formation of spicules, is thus of central importance to solar atmospheric science. For over thirty years it has been proposed that photospheric driving of MHD waves may be responsible for both heating and spicule formation. This paper presents results from a high-resolution MHD treatment of photospheric driven Alfvén and kink waves propagating upwards into an expanding flux tube embedded in a model chromospheric atmosphere. We show that the ponderomotive coupling from Alfvén and kink waves into slow modes generates shocks which both heat the upper chromosphere and drive spicules. These simulations show that wave driving of the solar chromosphere can give a local heating rate which matches observations and drive spicules consistent with Type-I observations all within a single coherent model.

description: Excerpts: In 2010, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) implemented an egg safety rule to control Salmonella Enteritidis on U.S. farms with 3,000 or more birds that produce eggs for human Consumption. The FDA used information from the USDA’s National Animal Health Monitoring System (NAHMS) Layers ‘99 study while assessing the need for and economic impact of the egg safety rule. As practices on table-egg farms have changed substantially since 1999, it was determined that updated information would be useful to the poultry industry and government agencies. As a result, in summer 2013 NAHMS conducted the Layers 2013 study to describe current management practices on U.S. table-egg farms and, in particular, management practices relevant to controlling S. Enteritidis. The 1999 study sample was selected from the USDA’s National Agricultural Statistics Service’s list of table-egg operations with 30,000 or more hens in 15 States. The 2013 study sample was selected from the FDA list of all registered egg producers with 3,000 or more laying hens in 19 States; a subset of farms with 30,000 or more hens was used for comparison to the 1999 study. Results from the two studies are highlighted in this document.

Addressing Low Contraceptive Use in Rural Tanzania

description: The maternal mortality ratio (MMR) for Tanzania is high at 578 deaths/100,000 live births and is in fact, getting worse. (TDHS, 2004-5). By comparison, the rate in 2005 for developed countries was 9/100,000 live births. The fastest way to lower this high incidence of maternal deaths is through healthy timing and spacing of pregnancies by using modern methods of contraception. The rate of unmet need for family planning (spacing or limiting pregnancies) is 22% throughout for the country as a whole. Family sizes are larger and access to family planning services significantly lower in the rural areas (TDHS, 2004-5). The President of Tanzania is committed to lowering maternal mortality and the government of Tanzania realizes that in order to reach Millennium Development Goal 5, lowering maternal mortality, the high rate of unmet family planning needs must to be addressed. In 2009 the goal was set to increase the contraceptive prevalence rate (CPR) from the current 26% to 60% by 2015. Since only 25% of the population lives in urban areas, contraception uptake will need to increase significantly in the rural areas. There are many reasons for low usage of family planning including poor access to care, lack of supplies, cost and widely held misconceptions about the risks of family planning versus pregnancy. These issues will have to be addressed in order to meet the goal of 60% coverage. The government has set out goals to be met at different levels from national to local. Non-governmental organizations (NGOs), Faith Based Organizations (FBOs) and other civic organizations are working with the government to try to achieve these goals. Some approaches used in Tanzania and other developing countries to increase contraceptive use include developing the capacity of district officials so that they budget enough for family planning needs, working with religious leaders, training community health workers to give injections of DMPA (Depot Medroxyprogesterone Acetate, commonly known as Depo-Provera), and working with traditional healers. In this paper I will address some of the strategies and approaches that have been tried and proven successful in different areas of Tanzania and selected other developing countries. I argue that they should be adopted and promoted at the national level throughout Tanzania to increase the use of modern methods of contraception and to ultimately lower the maternal mortality ratio.

description: We selected the claim that communities with westward migration vote significantly less for the Communist Party. (Statement 2). This reflects the following statement from the paper's abstract: "Using community and individual-level data from Moldova, we show that the emigration wave that started in the aftermath of the Russian crisis of 1998 strongly affected electoral outcomes and political preferences in Moldova during the following decade, eventually contributing to the fall of the last Communist government in Europe." (Statement 1). The basic empirical specification to estimate the relationship between migration patterns and Communist votes is shown in equation (1). The dependent variable is the share of votes for the Communist Party in the parliamentary election of July 2009. The focal independent variable is the “Prevalence of emigration to the West (percent)”. Table 1 Column (1) reports OLS estimates for 848 Moldovan communities. (Statement 3). Column 3 of Table 1 controls for community heterogeneity in terms of size and location, as well as demographic and ethnic composition. The results are suggestive of destination-specific political spillovers. The coefficient for “Prevalence of emigration to the West (percent)” is -0.63 with standard errors of 0.18. (Statement 4). The focal test in the original paper is: The coefficient for “Prevalence of emigration to the West (percent)” is -0.63 with standard errors of 0.18.

description: Orion KL has served as a benchmark for spectral line searches throughout the (sub)millimeter regime. The main goal is to systematically study spectral characteristics of Orion KL in the 1.3 cm band. We carried out a spectral line survey (17.9 GHz to 26.2 GHz) with the Effelsberg-100 m telescope towards Orion KL. We find 261 spectral lines, yielding an average line density of about 32 spectral features per GHz above 3$σ$. The identified lines include 164 radio recombination lines (RRLs) and 97 molecular lines. A total of 23 molecular transitions from species known to exist in Orion KL are detected for the first time in the interstellar medium. Non-metastable 15NH3 transitions are detected in Orion KL for the first time. Based on the velocity information of detected lines and the ALMA images, the spatial origins of molecular emission are constrained and discussed. A narrow feature is found in SO2 ($8_{1,7}-7_{2,6}$), possibly suggesting the presence of a maser line. Column densities and fractional abundances relative to H2 are estimated for 12 molecules with LTE methods. Rotational diagrams of non-metastable 14NH3 transitions with J=K+1 to J=K+4 yield different results; metastable 15NH3 is found to have a higher excitation temperature than non-metastable 15NH3, indicating that they may trace different regions. Elemental and isotopic abundance ratios are estimated: 12C/13C=63+-17, 14N/15N=100+-51, D/H=0.0083+-0.0045. The dispersion of the He/H ratios derived from H$α$/He$α$ pairs to H$δ$/He$δ$ pairs is very small, which is consistent with theoretical predictions that the departure coefficients bn factors for hydrogen and helium are nearly identical. Based on a non-LTE code neglecting excitation by the infrared radiation field and a likelihood analysis, we find that the denser regions have lower kinetic temperature, which favors an external heating of the Hot Core.

A Case for On-Site Occupational and Non-Occupational Health Care for Health Care Workers
Creators: name: Siemering, Karen
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries

description: The cost of health care in the United States is high and is expected to steadily increase. Hospitals and health care systems are affected by the rising costs in the form of expenditures on behalf of their employees' health care needs. Health care workers (HCWs) have higher utilization rates and carry a higher burden of chronic illness than employees in other market segments. Finding better ways to manage risk levels of these employees is critical to reducing costs. Current health care strategies include wellness programs and health conscious worksites. Many employers in an array of industries have instituted on-site primary care clinics to not only take care of minor acute illnesses but to provide management of chronic conditions for employees realizing that a healthy employee is a more productive employee. These clinics are a convenient way for employees to receive medical treatment without having to go too far from the worksite and, at the same time, offer an opportunity for the employee to learn about other health- related services covered under the employer's company plan. This paper addresses the special circumstance of the higher than average health care cost for HCWs, how this might be addressed, and to make a case for on-site urgent and primary care options utilizing the concepts of the patient-centered medical home model in addition to the presently offered employer-sponsored occupational health and wellness services. With such an integrated and comprehensive health care system comes an expanded role for occupational health nurses and occupational health nurse practitioners to join with other health care professionals in devising and implementing effective methods of improving patient outcomes.
