description: We introduce a new form of coupling between dark energy and dark matter that is quadratic in their energy densities. Then we investigate the background dynamics when dark energy is in the form of exponential quintessence. The three types of quadratic coupling all admit late-time accelerating critical points, but these are not scaling solutions. We also show that two types of coupling allow for a suitable matter era at early times and acceleration at late times, while the third type of coupling does not admit a suitable matter era.

We discuss two representative cases in the area of condensed matter physics outlining the widespread applications of the Grids. Both the problems involve calculations based on commonly used Density Functional Theory and hence can be considered to be of general interest. We demonstrate the suitability of Grids for the problems discussed and provide a general algorithm to implement and manage such large scale problems.

На базе Ульяновской областной станции переливания крови проведено нерандомизированное ретроспективное исследование за период с 2017 по 2018 г., в которое вошли доноры крови, относящиеся к категории часто сдающих. Исследовали 249 общих анализов крови доноров, которые были поделены на 2 группы: группа 1 – доноры, часто сдающие кровь (122 человека), группа 2 – доноры, часто сдающие плазму (127 человек). Изучены исходные показатели общего анализа крови доноров и их анализы через год. Результаты. В группе доноров цельной крови, по сравнению с донорами плазмы, через год от исходной точки отмечены статистически значимо более низкие показатели содержания эритроцитов как среди мужчин, так и среди женщин. Также статистически значимые различия анализов были отмечены в концентрации гемоглобина: по сравнению с донорами плазмы, у активных доноров крови среднее содержание гемоглобина было ниже почти на 5 г/л (р = 0,020) – у мужчин и на 6,3 г/л (р = 0,021) – у женщин.
description: The study aims to study the features of anemia development in donors who often donate blood. Material and methods. A non-randomized retrospective study in the Ulyanovsk Regional Blood Donor Center is conducted. The study includes blood donors who fall into the category of frequently donating from 2017 to 2018. A total of 249 blood donors are examined, which are divided into two groups: in the first group 122 people often donating blood, in the second group 127 people often donating plasma. The general blood tests were made and analyzed initially and in a year. Results. In the group of whole blood donors, compared to plasma donors, after a year from the starting point, significantly lower red blood cell counts were observed, among both men and women. In addition, statistically significant differences were noted in the hemoglobin concentration of the active blood donors compared with plasma donors. The average hemoglobin content was lower by almost 5 g / l (p = 0.020) in men and by 6.3 g / l (p = 0.021) in women.

description: In this paper we investigate the physical implications of the dynamical scalar mode in pure Horava-Lifshitz gravity on cosmology. We find that it can produce a scale-invariant power spectrum in UV era if the detailed balance condition on the action is relaxed. This indicates that the physical scalar mode may seed the large scale structure and Horava-Lifshitz cosmology could be a qualified alternative to inflationary scenario.

description: The total photoabsorption cross section for Li7, C, Al, Cu, Sn, Pb has been measured in the energy range 300–1200 MeV at Frascati with the jet-target tagged photon beam. A 4π NaI crystal detector and a lead-glass shower counter were used, respectively, to measure hadronic events and to reject the electromagnetic background. Data above 600 MeV clearly indicate a broadening of higher nucleon resonance peaks in nuclei and a reduction of the absolute value of the cross section per nucleon with respect to the free-nucleon case. This large broadening suggests a strong influence of the nuclear medium in the resonance propagation and interaction, while the systematic reduction of the measured cross sections might be due to a depletion of the resonance excitation strength and to the onset of the shadowing effect around 1 GeV. Moreover, our systematic study indicates that also the Δ-resonance excitation parameters are not the same for all nuclei, being its mass and width increasing with the nuclear density.
Dietary hypercholesterolemia in relation to cholesterol and fat absorption in cockerels.
Creators: name: Lindsay, Owen Burnett
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Differences in the mean plasma cholesterol levels of adult White Single Comb Leghorn cockerels were accentuated when a diet containing 10% hydrogenated vegetable oil and 1% cholesterol was fed for six days. The cholesterol levels promoted by the diet were found to be negatively correlated (p 0.05) with the amount of cholesterol excreted by the groups. The differences observed among groups in the rate of elimination of the excess cholesterol from the circulation were not found to be statistically significant. Variation in cholesterol absorption may therefore be responsible, in large measure for differences in the degree of hypercholesterolemia induced, by feeding a diet high in cholesterol. A significant correlation (p 0.01) between the amounts of cholesterol and saponifiable lipids excreted following the feeding of a high-fat, high-cholesterol diet suggests that the amount of dietary fat absorbed may be a major determinant of the amount of cholesterol absorbed. Subjection of cockerels to the feeding of a high-fat, high-cholesterol diet over a prolonged period resulted in an increase in lipid absorption. Cockerels which survived 410 days of feeding maintained throughout the test, a lower mean plasma cholesterol level than nonsurvivors. The blood vessels of survivors compared to nonsurvivors showed little evidence of atherosclerosis.

description: Light scalar fields with only gravitational strength couplings are typically present in UV complete theories of physics beyond the Standard Model. In the early universe it is natural for these fields to dominate the energy density, and their subsequent decay, if prior to BBN, will typically yield some dark matter particles in their decay products. In this paper we make the observation that a Non-thermal WIMP `Miracle' may result: that is, in the simplest solution to the cosmological moduli problem, non-thermally produced WIMPs can naturally account for the observed dark matter relic density. Such a solution may be generic in string theory compactifications.

The Role of Chiral Loops in η->π^0π^0γγ

Year: 1996

description: We consider the rare decay  η->π^0π^0γγ and calculate the non-resonant contribution to the amplitude to one loop in Chiral Perturbation Theory. We display our result as both a diphoton energy spectrum and a partial decay rate as a function of the photon energy cut. It turns out that the one-loop correction can be numerically very important and could be detected, at sufficiently large centre-of-mass photon energies, from a measurement of the partial decay width.

description: Based on the citation data of journals covered by the China Scientific and Technical Papers and Citations Database (CSTPCD), we obtained aggregated journal-journal citation environments by applying routines developed specifically for this purpose. Local citation impact of journals is defined as the share of the total citations in a local citation environment, which is expressed as a ratio and can be visualized by the size of the nodes. The vertical size of the nodes varies proportionally to a journal's total citation share, while the horizontal size of the nodes is used to provide citation information after correction for the within-journal (self-) citations. In this study, we analyze citation impacts of three Chinese journals in mathematics and compare local citation impacts with impact factors. Local citation impacts reflect a journal's status and function better than (global) impact factors. We also found that authors in Chinese journals prefer international instead of domestic ones as sources for their citations.

description: The possibility of realizing the superradiant regime of electromagnetic emission by the assembly of quantum dots is considered. The overall dynamical process is analyzed in detail. It is shown that there can occur several qualitatively different stages of evolution. The process starts with dipolar waves triggering the spontaneous radiation of individual dots. This corresponds to the fluctuation stage, when the dots are not yet noticeably correlated with each other. The second is the quantum stage, when the dot interactions through the common radiation field become more important, but the coherence is not yet developed. The third is the coherent stage, when the dots radiate coherently, emitting a superradiant pulse. After the superradiant pulse, the system of dots relaxes to an incoherent state in the relaxation stage. If there is no external permanent pumping, or the effective dot interactions are weak, the system tends to a stationary state during the last stationary stage, when coherence dies out to a low, practically negligible, level. In the case of permanent pumping, there exists the sixth stage of pulsing superradiance, when the system of dots emits separate coherent pulses.

subject: [Time ordered products]

description: In the first part of this thesis we study the generalization of the recent algebraic approach to classical field theory by proposing a more general setting based on the manifold of smooth sections of a non-trivial fiber bundle. Central is the notion of observables/functionals over such sections, i.e. appropriate smooth functions on them. The kinematic will be further specified by means of Peierls brackets, which in turn are defined via the causal propagators of linearized field equations. In the second part we implement deformation quantization of the algebras obtained previously in the simpler setting of scalar field theory. Wick powers and time ordered products for quantum field theories in curved spacetimes are defined by giving a set of axioms which, when implemented, defines uniquely, up to some classifiable ambiguities, the aforementioned quantities. Those ambiguities are known to be tightly restrained by locality, covariance and other regularity conditions. One of the additional constraints used was to require continuous and analytic dependence on the metric and coupling parameters. It was recently shown that this rather strong requirement could be weakened, in the case of Wick powers, to the so-called parametrized microlocal spectrum condition. We therefore show the existence of Wick powers satisfying the above condition and extend this axiom to time ordered products, while reestablishing the usual uniqueness and existence results in light of the new constraint.
The nature of the genetic difference in the coumarin metabolism of bitter and non-bitter Melilotus alba Desr.
Creators: name: Freyman, Stanislaw
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The phenylpropanoid compound, coumarin, is responsible for the bitterness and indirectly, toxicity in the forage legume sweet clover (Melilotus alba). Coumarin, mainly in the "bound" form as the β glucoside of o-coumaric acid is abundant in the bitter plants, but not in the shoots of the low-coumarin "Denta" and "Cumino" varieties, and in the species M. dentata. Substantial quantities of the coumaric acid glucoside have been found in the seed of these low-coumarin plants. The search for a compound that substitutes for coumarin in the shoots of low-coumarin plants, led to the isolation of a flavonoid, somewhat resembling quercetin. Feeding of o and p-coumaric acids to both high and low-coumarin plants led to the methoxylation of these compounds prior to glycosidation. When cinnamic acid was fed, no difference in the metabolic products could be detected from those normally, found in control plants.

description: Based on spectrophotometric observations from the Guillermo Haro Observatory (Cananea, Mexico), a study of the spectral properties of the complete sample of 24 blue straggler stars (BSs) in the old Galactic open cluster M67 (NGC 2682) is presented. All spectra, calibrated using spectral standards, were recalibrated by means of photometric magnitudes in the Beijing-Arizona-Taipei-Connecticut system, which includes fluxes in 11 bands covering ~3500-10000 A. The set of parameters was obtained using two complementary approaches that rely on a comparison of the spectra with (i) an empirical sample of stars with well-established spectral types and (ii) a theoretical grid of optical spectra computed at both low and high resolution. The overall results indicate that the BSs in M67 span a wide range in Teff(~ 5600 -12600 K) and surface gravities that are fully compatible with those expected for main-sequence objects (log g = 3.5 -5.0 dex).

RHESSI Tests of Quasi-Thermal Gamma-Ray Burst Spectral Models

Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Prompt gamma-ray burst spectra evolve on short time scales, suggesting that time-resolved spectral fits may help diagnose the still unknown prompt emission mechanism. We use broad-band gamma-ray data from the RHESSI spacecraft to test quasi-thermal models with high signal-to-noise time-resolved spectra of nine bright gamma-ray bursts. In contrast to results reported in more narrow energy bands, the quality of the fits of quasi-thermal models is poor in relation to fits of the phenomenological Band function. Moreover, the best-fit parameters for the simplest quasi-thermal model, a black body plus a nonthermal power law, show significant dependence on the fit band. Models that replace the power law with more complicated nonthermal functions are not robust for the data considered here and decrease the physical relevance of the fit black body.

Forward and adjoint quasi-geostrophic models of the geomagnetic secular variation

Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Geophysics (physics.geo-ph)

description: We introduce a quasi-geostrophic model of core dynamics, which aims at describing core processes on geomagnetic secular variation timescales. It extends the formalism of Alfvén torsional oscillations by incorporating non-zonal motions. Within this framework, the magnetohydrodynamics takes place in the equatorial plane; it involves quadratic magnetic quantities, which are averaged along the direction of rotation of the Earth. In addition, the equatorial flow is projected on the core-mantle boundary. It interacts with the magnetic field at the core surface, through the radial component of the magnetic induction equation. That part of the model connects the dynamics and the observed secular variation, with the radial component of the magnetic field acting as a passive tracer. We resort to variational data assimilation to construct formally the relationship between model predictions and observations. Variational data assimilation seeks to minimize an objective function, by computing its sensitivity to its control variables. The sensitivity is efficiently calculated after integration of the adjoint model. We illustrate that framework with twin experiments, performed first in the case of the kinematic core flow inverse problem, and then in the case of Alfvén torsional oscillations. In both cases, using the adjoint model allows us to retrieve core state variables which, while taking part in the dynamics, are not directly sampled at the core surface. We study the effect of several factors on the solution (width of the assimilation time window, amount and quality of data), and we discuss the potential of the model to deal with real geomagnetic observations.

description: In tidal wetlands, small differences in elevation can have large impacts on the present hydrology, vegetation, and habitat. LiDAR-derived Digital Elevation Models, currently used throughout Delaware as the best measure of elevation over large areas, suffer from errors in dense vegetated areas, reducing their effectiveness in hydrologic and topographic wetland applications. This presentation describes our ongoing project and preliminary results to better understand and reduce vertical bias in LiDAR-based DEMs for the tidal salt marshes in St. Jones and Blackbird Creek Research Reserves.

description: Recent high-pressure studies found that superconductivity can be achieved under very low pressure in the parent iron arsenide compound CaFe2As2, although details of the sharpness and temperature of transitions vary between liquid medium and gas medium measurements. To better understand this issue, we performed high-pressure susceptibility and transport studies on CaFe2As2, using helium as the pressure medium. The signatures of the transitions to the low-temperature orthorhombic and collapsed tetragonal phase remained exceptionally sharp and no signature of bulk superconductivity was found under our hydrostatic conditions. Our results suggest that phase separation and superconductivity in CaFe2As2 are induced by non-hydrostatic conditions associated with the frozen liquid media.

description: Angular variation of giant magnetoresistance and spin-transfer torque in metallic spin-valve heterostructures is analyzed theoretically in the limit of diffusive transport. It is shown that the spin-transfer torque in asymmetric spin valves can vanish in non-collinear magnetic configurations, and such a non-standard behavior of the torque is generally associated with a non-monotonic angular dependence of the giant magnetoresistance, with a global minimum at a non-collinear magnetic configuration.

description: The main goal is to study the dynamics of the gravitationally stratified, field-free cavities in the solar atmosphere, located under small-scale, cylindrical magnetic canopies, in response to explosive events in the lower-lying regions (due to granulation, small-scale magnetic reconnection, etc.). We derive the two-dimensional Klein-Gordon equation for isothermal density perturbations in cylindrical coordinates. The equation is first solved by a standard normal mode analysis in order to obtain the free oscillation spectrum of the cavity. Then, the equation is solved in the case of impulsive forcing associated to a pressure pulse specified in the lower-lying regions. The normal mode analysis shows that the entire cylindrical cavity of granular dimensions tends to oscillate with frequencies of 5-8 mHz and also with the atmospheric cut-off frequency. Furthermore, the passage of a pressure pulse, excited in the convection zone, sets up a wake in the cavity oscillating with the same cut-off frequency. The wake oscillations can resonate with the free oscillation modes, which leads to an enhanced observed oscillation power. The resonant oscillations of these cavities explain the observed power halos near magnetic network cores and active regions.

description: We explore the relation between colour and specific star formation rate (derived from optical spectra obtained by SDSS DR4) of over 6,000 galaxies (M_r<=-20.5) in and around low redshift (z<0.12) clusters. Even though most red galaxies have little or no ongoing star formation, and most blue galaxies are currently forming stars, there are significant populations of red star-forming (SF) and blue passive galaxies. This paper examines various properties of galaxies belonging to the latter two categories. These properties include morphological parameters, internal extinction, spectral features such as EW(H_delta) and the 4000 ang break, and metallicity. Our analysis shows that the blue passive galaxies have properties very similar to their SF counterparts, except that their large range in EW(H_delta) indicates recent truncation of star formation. The red SF galaxies fall into two broad categories, one of them being massive galaxies in cluster cores dominated by an old stellar population, but with evidence of current star formation in the core. For the remaining red SF galaxies it is evident from various metallicity measures and mean stellar ages, that their colours result from the predominance of a metal-rich stellar population. The implication of the properties of these SF galaxies on environmental studies, like that of the Butcher-Oemler effect, is discussed.

description: Can change in citation patterns among journals be used as an indicator of structural change in the organization of the sciences? Aggregated journal-journal citations for 1999 are compared with similar data in the Journal Citation Reports 1998 of the Science Citation Index. In addition to indicating local change, probabilistic entropy measures enable us to analyze changes in distributions at different levels of aggregation. The results of various statistics are discussed and compared by elaborating the journal-journal mappings. The relevance of this indicator for science and technology policies is further specified.

description: For any given catalyst and set of reaction conditions, as the temperature in catalytic combustion is initially increased, the reaction rate is also increased. This rate of increase is exponential with temperature. As the temperature is raised further, the reaction rate then passes through a transition zone where the limiting parameters determining reaction rate shift from catalytic to mass transfer. When the catalytic rate increases to such an extent that the reactants cannot be transferred to the catalytic surface fast enough to keep up with the catalytic reaction rate, the reaction shifts to mass transfer control, and the catalytic reaction rate levels off regardless of further temperature increases. The reaction is then said to be mass transfer limited. In mass transfer controlled catalytic reactions, one cannot distinguish between a more active catalyst and a less active catalyst because the intrinsic catalyst activity is not determinative of the rate of reaction. Regardless of any increase in catalytic activity above that required for mass transfer control, a greater catalytic conversion rate cannot be achieved for the same set of conditions. Because of this limitation, in order to increase the conversion rate for any given system, it appears essential either to increase the amount of catalyst surface or to increase the rate of mass transfer of reactants to the surface. The former, for practical combustion systems, would require either a catalyst size of such magnitude as to be unwieldy or a catalyst configuration which results in increased specific pressure drop and which would require unwieldy geometry to hold a total pressure drop constant. For example, in the case of gas turbine engines, the catalytic reactor might very well be larger than the engine itself. On the other hand, increasing the rate of mass transfer of reactants to the catalytic surfaces would result in increased pressure drop and consequently a substantial loss of energy; sufficient pressure drop may not even be available to provide the desired rate of reaction. Quite obviously, these approaches, while theoretically possible, are quite impractical.

Grade placement of an experimental unit in secondary school physics

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: This study was designed to determine the relative effectiveness of teaching a unit on wave-motion and sound at the grade nine and ten levels, using two different methods of instruction. One hundred twenty students enrolled in the grade nine and ten General Science courses at the Balmoral Junior Secondary School in School District No. 44 (North Vancouver), took part in the investigation. The students were grouped into three levels of scholastic aptitude within each grade, and also, into two methods sections. Two questions were investigated in this study. First, do significant differences exist between the mean scores on the final test of the various grade and methods groups? Secondly, for which of these groups is the unit suitable? In order to answer the first question, the final scores were studied by an analysis of covariance with scholastic aptitude, knowledge of General Science, and prior knowledge of the material in the unit being the variables controlled. The second question was investigated by first adjusting the final scores of all the subjects for differences between them on the three factors assumed to influence their performance in this study. The performance of each group was then compared with the criterion that 75 per cent of the students in a group should make a mark of 50 per cent or better on the final test in order for the unit to be judged suitable for that group. All the differences between the means of the two grade groups, and the three levels of scholastic aptitude within these two grades, were found to be non-significant at the one per cent level of significance. On the other hand, the differences between the means of the methods groups, demonstration-experiment and student-experiment, were found to be significant at the one per cent level. Of the two methods groups, the highest adjusted mean score was obtained by the demonstration-experiment group. All the groups satisfied the requirement of suitability that 75 per cent should obtain a mark of 50 per cent or better on the final test.

description: It has long been hypothesized that a species that is relatively easy to catch by predators may face selection to resemble a species that is harder to catch. Several experiments using avian predators have since supported this ‘evasive mimicry’ hypothesis. However, the sudden movement of artificial evasive prey in each of the above experiments may have startled the predators, generating an avoidance response unrelated to difficulty of capture. Additionally in the above experiments the catchability of prey was all or nothing, while in nature predators may occasionally catch evasive prey or fail to catch slower species, which might inhibit learning. Here, using mantids as predators, we conducted an experimental test of the evasive mimicry hypothesis that circumvents these limitations, using live painted calyptrate flies with modified evasive capabilities as prey. We found that mantids readily learned to avoid pursuing the more evasive prey types. Warning signals based on evasiveness and their associated mimicry may be widespread phenomena in nature. These findings not only further support its plausibility but demonstrate that even arthropod predators can select for it.

description: We propose and experimentally demonstrate a universal quantum averaging process implementing the harmonic mean of quadrature variances. The harmonic mean protocol can be used to efficiently stabilize a set of fragile squeezed light sources with statistically fluctuating noise levels. The averaged variances are prepared probabilistically by means of linear optical interference and measurement induced conditioning. We verify that the implemented harmonic mean outperforms the standard arithmetic mean strategy. The effect of quantum averaging is experimentally tested both for uncorrelated and partially correlated noise sources with sub-Poissonian shot noise or super-Poissonian shot noise characteristics.
