Quasiparticle interference in an iron-based superconductor
Creators: name: Sykora, Steffen

Subjects: subject: Superconductivity (cond-mat.supr-con)

description: We develop a model for the effect of a magnetic field on quasiparticle interference in an iron-based superconductor. Recently, scanning tunneling experiments have been performed on Fe(Se,Te) to determine the relative sign of the superconducting gap from the magnetic-field dependence of quasiparticle scattering amplitudes. Using a simple two-band BCS model, we study three different cases of scattering in a spin-split spectrum. The dominant effect of a magnetic field in iron-based superconductors is caused by the Pauli limiting of conduction electrons. Thereby time reversal odd scattering is induced which enhances the sign-preserving and depresses the sign-reversing peaks in the quasiparticle interference patterns.

description: Deoxycholate (DA) is a natural emulsifying agent involved in the absorption of dietary lipids. Due to the facial distribution of hydrophobic-hydrophilic region, DA easily aggregates under ambient conditions, and this property hinders the practical application of DA in clinical application. In this study, we found that the molecular arrangement of DA molecules could be controlled by utilizing layered double hydroxide (LDH) under a specific reaction condition. The effect of reaction methods such as co-precipitation, ion exchange, and reconstruction on the molecular arrangement of DA was investigated by X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, and differential scanning calorimetry. It was demonstrated that the self-aggregation of DA molecules could be suppressed by the oriented arrangement of DA between the gallery space of LDH. The DA moiety was well stabilized in the LDH layers due to the electrostatic interaction between DA molecules and LDH layers. The most ordered arrangement of DA molecules was observed when DA was incorporated into LDH via a reconstruction method. The DA molecules arranged in LDH via reconstruction did not show significant exothermic nor endothermic behavior up to 400℃, showing that the DA moiety lost its intermolecular attraction in between LDH layers.

description: Various massive gravity theories in three dimensions are conjecturally dual to logarithmic conformal field theories (LCFTs). We summarise the status of these conjectures. LCFTs are characterised by the values of the central charges and the so-called "new anomalies". We employ a short-cut to calculate these new anomalies in generalised massive gravity and in the recently proposed higher-derivative gravity theories with holographic c-theorem. Both cases permit LCFTs exhibiting intriguing features, like rank three Jordan cells or non-zero central charges. Finally, as an example we discuss in some detail the partially massless version of new massive gravity, a theory with several special properties that we call "partially massless gravity".

description: We theoretically analyze a Mach-Zehnder interferometer with trapped condensates, and find that it is surprisingly stable against the nonlinearity induced by inter-particle interactions. The phase sensitivity, which we study for number squeezed input states, can overcome the shot noise limit and be increased up to the Heisenberg limit provided that a Bayesian or Maximum-Likelihood phase estimation strategy is used. We finally demonstrate robustness of the Mach-Zehnder interferometer in presence of interactions against condensate oscillations and a realistic atom counting error.

Fermionic magnons, non-Abelian spinons, and spin quantum Hall effect from an exactly solvable Kitaev Hamiltonian with SU(2) symmetry

description: We introduce an exactly solvable SU(2) symmetric Kitaev model with exotic spin excitations. With time reversal symmetry (TRS), the ground state is a spin liquid with gapless or gapped spin-1 but fermionic excitations. When TRS is broken, the resulting spin liquid exhibits deconfined vortex excitations which carry spin-1/2 quantum number and obey non-Abelian statistics. We show that this SU(2) invariant non-Abelian spin liquid exhibits spin quantum Hall effect with quantized spin Hall conductivity σ^s_{xy}=\hbar/2π, and that the spin response is effectively described the SO(3) level-1 Chern-Simons theory at low energy. We further propose that a SU(2) level-2 Chern-Simons theory is the effective field theory describing the topological structure of the non-Abelian SU(2) invariant spin liquid.

description: The angular momentum evolution of stars close to massive black holes (MBHs) is driven by secular torques. In contrast to two-body relaxation, where interactions between stars are incoherent, the resulting resonant relaxation (RR) process is characterized by coherence times of hundreds of orbital periods. In this paper, we show that all the statistical properties of RR can be reproduced in an autoregressive moving average (ARMA) model. We use the ARMA model, calibrated with extensive N-body simulations, to analyze the long-term evolution of stellar systems around MBHs with Monte Carlo simulations. We show that for a single-mass system in steady-state, a depression is carved out near an MBH as a result of tidal disruptions. Using Galactic center parameters, the extent of the depression is about 0.1 pc, of similar order to but less than the size of the observed "hole" in the distribution of bright late-type stars. We also find that the velocity vectors of stars around an MBH are locally not isotropic. In a second application, we evolve the highly eccentric orbits that result from the tidal disruption of binary stars, which are considered to be plausible precursors of the "S-stars" in the Galactic center. We find that RR predicts more highly eccentric (e > 0.9) S-star orbits than have been observed to date.

Visual Inspection Unmanned Aerial Vehicles in Harsh Environments
Creators: name: Roch, Keaton Hunter
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: When trying to preserve the integrity and safety of heavy equipment, pressure vessels, storage tanks, and structures, it is essential to perform regular visual inspections. Unfortunately, the areas these inspections take place are not always easily accessible and can involve harsh environments. Subjecting inspectors to these areas can pose health and safety risks while also being very costly. Unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are a relatively new tool used to conduct visual inspections in difficult areas to access. However, UAVs have not been designed to operate in harsh environments associated with extreme temperatures, humidity, and/or strong winds. Initial research will be conducted in attempt to predict the risks these harsh environments pose on the UAV. Following the study of these risks, a UAV will be designed and created while attempting to mitigate these issues. Upon completion of the construction, this UAV will be tested in each environment individually to determine the effects of each. By studying the results of each test, the UAV is then able to be furthermore adapted or approved for flight within the aforementioned conditions.

Strong Laws for Urn Models with Balanced Replacement Matrices

description: We consider an urn model, whose replacement matrix has all entries nonnegative and is balanced, that is, has constant row sums. We obtain the rates of the counts of balls corresponding to each color for the strong laws to hold. The analysis requires a rearrangement of the colors in two steps. We first reduce the replacement matrix to a block upper triangular one, where the diagonal blocks are either irreducible or the scalar zero. The scalings for the color counts are then given inductively depending on the Perron-Frobenius eigenvalues of the irreducible diagonal blocks. In the second step of the rearrangement, the colors are further rearranged to reduce the block upper triangular replacement matrix to a canonical form. Under a further mild technical condition, we obtain the scalings and also identify the limits. We show that the limiting random variables corresponding to the counts of colors within a block are constant multiples of each other. We provide an easy-to-understand explicit formula for them as well. The model considered here contains the urn models with irreducible replacement matrix, as well as, the upper triangular one and several specific block upper triangular ones considered earlier in the literature and gives an exhaustive picture of the color counts in the general case with only possible restrictions that the replacement matrix is balanced and has nonnegative entries.

description: Nuclear spin memories of divalent neutral atoms can allow spin-preserving resolved-sideband cooling in a strong magnetic field [Phys. Rev. Lett. 99, 123001 (2007)]. We present a theory for cooling $^{87}$Sr nuclear-spin qubits in a weak magnetic field. The theory depends on laser excitation of $5s5p~^1P_1$ to a nearby state which results in $m_J$-dependent AC Stark shifts large compared to the hyperfine interaction. This effectively suppresses the nuclear-spin mixing due to the hyperfine interaction. Sideband cooling via the clock state quenched by the AC Stark-shifted $^1P_1$ state leads to nuclear-spin-preserving spontaneous emission back to the ground state. More than being compatible with low magnetic fields, the theory is applicable when the nuclear spin qubits are defined by the two lowest Zeeman substates.

description: In this article, we show that a four-dimensional Kerr-Newman-AdS-dS black hole could be described by two different holographic two-dimensional conformal field theories. The first description, in view of the angular momentum, has been well discussed in (arXiv:1006.0157). The other alternative dual picture, however, is somehow overlooked. This new description, in view of the charge, provides another holographic correspondence. This picture again is supported not only by the match of the macroscopic entropy with the counting of microscopic degrees of freedom via the Cardy formula and also by the agreement on the real-time correlator in the superradiant scattering.

description: We propose a measure of quantum efficiency of a multimode state of light that quantifies the amount of optical loss this state has experienced, and prove that this efficiency cannot increase in any linear-optical processing with destructive conditional measurements. Any loss that has affected a state can neither be removed nor redistributed so as to further increase the efficiency in higher-efficiency modes at the expense of lower-efficiency modes. This result eliminates the possibility of catalytically improving photon sources.

description: The program HiggsSignals confronts the predictions of models with arbitrary Higgs sectors with the available Higgs signal rate and mass measurements, resulting in a likelihood estimate. A new version of the program, HiggsSignals-2, is presented that contains various improvements in its functionality and applicability. In particular, the new features comprise improvements in the theoretical input framework and the handling of possible complexities of beyond-the-SM Higgs sectors, as well as the incorporation of experimental results in the form of Simplified Template Cross Section (STXS) measurements. The new functionalities are explained, and a thorough discussion of the possible statistical interpretations of the HiggsSignals results is provided. The performance of HiggsSignals is illustrated for some example analyses. In this context the importance of public information on certain experimental details like efficiencies and uncertainty correlations is pointed out. HiggsSignals is continuously updated to the latest experimental results and can be obtained at https://www.gitlab.com/higgsbounds/higgssignals .
Inelastic Light Scattering in the Vicinity of a Single-Atom Quantum Point Contact in a Plasmonic Picocavity

description: Here, using low-temperature optical scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), we investigate inelastic light scattering (ILS) in the vicinity of a single-atom quantum point contact (QPC). A vibration mode localized at the single Ag adatom on the Ag(111) surface is resolved in the ILS spectrum, resulting from tip-enhanced Raman scattering (TERS) by the atomically-confined plasmonic field in the STM junction. Furthermore, we trace how TERS from the single adatom evolves as a function of the gap distance. The exceptional stability of the low-temperature STM allows to examine distinctly different electron transport regimes of the picocavity, namely in the tunneling and quantum point contact (QPC) regimes. This measurement shows that the vibration mode localized at the adatom and its TERS intensity exhibits a sharp change upon the QPC formation, indicating that the atomic-level structure has a crucial impact on the plasmonic properties. To gain microscopic insights into picocavity optomechanics, we scrutinize the structure and plasmonic field in the STM junction using time-dependent density functional theory. The simulations reveal that atomic-scale structural relaxation at the single-atom QPC results in a discrete change of the plasmonic field strength, volume, and distribution as well as the vibration mode localized at the single atom. These findings give a qualitative explanation for the experimental observations. Furthermore, we demonstrate that strong ILS is a characteristic feature of QPC by continuously forming, breaking, and reforming the atomic contact, and how the plasmonic resonance evolves throughout the non-tunneling, tunneling, and QPC regimes.

Kenyan national teachers teaching in schools in a long-term refugee camp : addressing education crisis in the refugee camp
Creators: name: Karangu, Philip Kimani
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2023

description: Access to schooling for children and youth in long-term refugee is a right and necessity. Kenya is host to refugees living in Dadaab, one of world’s largest long-term refugee camps. Although there are trained and untrained refugee teachers working in Dadaab camp schools, among them, are non-refugees Kenyan nationally trained teachers. Very little is known about these teachers’ experience teaching in the complex context of a refugee camp. This study investigates and reports accounts conveyed in narratives of non-refugee Kenyan national teachers’ pedagogical perspectives and living experiences in Dadaab refugee camp. Nine Kenyan national teachers participated in this study. Principles of narrative methodology were applied to collect data, which involved in-depth and semi-structured interviews. The study employed an Afrocentric lens centering African humanistic philosophy of Utu/Ubuntu as a framework to read and better understand the teachers’ context and their stories. The study investigated the following questions: i) What are the Kenyan national teachers' narratives of teaching experiences and implied meanings, understandings of the relationship between education in refugee camps and host communities? ii) What aspects of the narratives are in concert or conflict with the Afrocentric value of Utu/Ubuntu (you are because I am; I am because you are)? iii) What implications might the study’s findings have on global conceptualization of refugee education? A summary of the key study findings indicate that national teachers: 1) considered Dadaab as a non-family zone and risky place; 2) perceived Dadaab as place steeped in cultural and religious complexities; 3) appreciated Dadaab schools for offering noble opportunities for instructional skill deployment, refinement and retooling expertise; 4) noticed the only educational incentives and scholarships slipping away due to students’ low academic performance, manifested in panic and depression among students; and 5) considered teaching as a humane act. These results provide deep insights into how non-refugee teachers experience teaching in a refugee camp and the implications for the ways educational issues need to be addressed within refugee camps from national teachers’ perspectives.

description: Detecting anomalies on network traffic is a complex task due to the massive amount of traffic flows in today's networks, as well as the highly-dynamic nature of traffic over time. In this paper, we propose the use of Graph Neural Networks (GNN) for network traffic anomaly detection. We formulate the problem as contextual anomaly detection on network traffic measurements, and propose a custom GNN-based solution that detects traffic anomalies on origin-destination flows. In our evaluation, we use real-world data from Abilene (6 months), and make a comparison with other widely used methods for the same task (PCA, EWMA, RNN). The results show that the anomalies detected by our solution are quite complementary to those captured by the baselines (with a max. of 36.33% overlapping anomalies for PCA). Moreover, we manually inspect the anomalies detected by our method, and find that a large portion of them can be visually validated by a network expert (64% with high confidence, 18% with mid confidence, 18% normal traffic). Lastly, we analyze the characteristics of the anomalies through two paradigmatic cases that are quite representative of the bulk of anomalies.

description: We consider the static and spherically symmetric field equations of general relativity for charged perfect fluid spheres in the presence of a cosmological constant. Following work by Florides (1983) we find new exact solutions of the field equations, and discuss their mass radius ratios. These solutions, for instance, require the charged Nariai metric to be the vacuum part of the spacetime. We also find charged generalizations of the Einstein static universe and speculate that the smallness problem of the cosmological constant might become less problematic if charge is taken into account.

Subjects: subject: Quantum error correction

description: We explore a range of fault-tolerant quantum error correction schemes that employ concatenation of small error detection or correction codes with the three-dimensional cluster state. To combat errors at the circuit level, we propose fault-tolerant state preparation and decoding techniques that convert every such error into an erasure error, leveraging the cluster state's robustness against this type of error. Through our investigations, we identify a set of codes that support such a conversion, and we evaluate their performance against the standard circuit-level depolarization model. Our most successful scheme, which involves concatenation with a classical code, improves the threshold by $16.5% and reduces the spacetime overhead by $32% compared to the non-concatenated scheme, with both schemes operating under a physical error rate of $10^{-3} and achieving a logical error rate of $10^{-6}.

description: A more general scale-setting procedure for General Relativity with Renormalization Group corrections is proposed. Theoretical aspects of the scale-setting procedure and the interpretation of the renormalization group running scale are discussed. The procedure is elaborated for several highly symmetric systems with matter in the form of an ideal fluid and for two models of running of the Newton coupling and the cosmological term. For a static spherically symmetric system with the matter obeying the polytropic equation of state the running scale-setting is performed analytically. The obtained result for the running scale matches the Ansatz introduced in a recent paper by Rodrigues, Letelier and Shapiro which provides an excellent explanation of rotation curves for a number of galaxies. A systematic explanation of the galaxy rotation curves using the scale-setting procedure introduced in this paper is identified as an important future goal.

Managing the Monograph: developing local strategies for open access book chapters

Publisher: name: Zenodo

description: In the current UK open access landscape, with its focus on the journal article and REF compliance, other forms of research output have been largely ignored. It could be argued that this has led the OA conversation away from disciplines whose primary output is the monograph or book chapter. This poster/lightning talk will look at how the University of Birmingham have approached addressing this area, including an analysis of existing chapters and monographs recorded in our repository, identifying key publishers used and examining the self-archiving/green OA policies of those which would have the largest impact. It will also explore how this project has led to changes in our repository team workflows and guidance information around chapters and monographs, and how this has encouraged our authors to consider open access options for their research beyond the journal article, and thus engaging our HSS academics in conversations about OA.

A novel method to integrate intra-oral scan models with 3D facial images

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Objectives: Three-dimensional (3D) imaging is becoming more mainstream with advances in digital technology and reduction in cost. Two-dimensional (2D) imaging has been the standard in orthodontics but it would be beneficial to examine virtual 3D patients for diagnosis, treatment planning, and assessment of growth and treatment outcomes with no use of ionizing radiation. This study aimed to validate the Bellus Arc7 3D facial scanner and test a novel method for integrating intraoral scans with 3D facial images to create a virtual patient. Methods: Part I entailed validation of Bellus Arc7 using the conventional reference standard, the 3dMDface system. Three subjects were selected, and for each 4 images were taken on two occasions one week apart. Images were uploaded, superimposed, and a 3D heat map was generated for comparison using Geomagic Control X processing software. Part II compared a novel merging technique from 14 participants recruited from UBC Graduate Orthodontic Program. For each subject, 5 images were captured (two images using Trios intraoral scanner, one facial scan with Bellus Arc7, and two with Artec Space Spider). The intra-oral scan of the upper dentition and the Arc7 3D facial scans were merged via the transferring of the perioral scan to develop a virtual patient. The reference 3D virtual image from the alignment of the dental scan and Artec Space Spider facial scans was used for comparison. The surface-to-surface root mean square and point-to-point deviation values between the two meshes were analysed. Results: Part I showed the root mean square for Bellus Arc7 as compared to the reference 3dMD to be 1.16 ± 0.41 mm for all three subjects, which is clinically acceptable for soft tissue measurements. Part II showed that relative to the merged Artec Space Spider scans, the root mean square difference of the merged Arc7 scans was 1.52 ± 0.54 mm. For the point-to-point deviations in the dentition there was a relatively wide range of mean differences. Conclusions: The results indicated that creating a 3D patient by merging the dental scan with 3D facial images acquired with Bellus Arc7 is adequate quality for most clinical applications, albeit very technique sensitive.
title: Scatter radio relaying & applications

description: Billions of devices are expected to be wirelessly connected in the foreseeable future. Sustaining such connectivity will require simple, elegant, engineering solutions. Based on backscatter radio principles, this dissertation offers novel, ultra-low-complexity,  ultra-low-power, ultra-low-cost solutions, for connectivity in the field of narrowband wireless communications.
	Methods for achieving wireless communication by “recycling” radio waves, pre-existing in the environment, are offered and analysed. In contrast to generating own signals for transmission, a device (tag) adopting the suggested methods can transmit its information towards any conventional FM radio receiver, by recycling ambient signals from FM radio stations. That way, it is shown that batteryless information transmission can be achieved up to distances of 26 meters, by harvesting energy from the environment. Ultra-low cost prototypes consumed only 24 μWatt in continuous (non duty-cycled) operation.
	In the case of ambient signals of unknown origin and structure, digital modulation schemes are also offered, accompanied by novel coherent, partially-coherent illumination-agnostic, as well as fully noncoherent, channel-coded or uncoded detection algorithms. It is shown that under certain conditions, modulated and unknown ambient signals, can offer performance gains in the process of recovering tag's information signal, i.e., modulation of the ambient signal may be helpful. The proposed schemes do not require any cooperation with the ambient transmitter. That way, in sharp contrast to prior art, the tags adopting the proposed techniques are receiver-less; ultra-low-complexity and batteryless operation are also facilitated.
	Exploiting the aforementioned methods, originally intended for solving ambient backscatter communication problems, it is demonstrated for the first time that backscattering tags can also be used in an unorthodox way, for relaying signals in the frequency domain. Scatter radio relaying can be used to solve multi-antenna processing problems: a) blind (i.e., zero-feedback) beamforming, offering power gains in the order of 0.4-3.7 dB, and b) direction of arrival (DoA) estimation, offering error less than 5 degrees with 8 scattering tags. The proposed methods utilize single antenna radios without any requirement for channel feedback, multi-antenna RF front-ends or expensive controllers.
	The proposed techniques extend the solution space for engineers building wireless devices under power, complexity and cost constraints. Hopefully, this work will amplify the recent interest of the research community on backscatter radio and accelerate efforts towards the wide adoption of backscatter radio relaying in current and future commodity wireless systems, sensors and networks.

description: The long-term success of climate models that operate on multi-resolution grids will depend on access to subgrid parameterizations that act appropriately across a wide range of spatial and temporal scales. As the first step in a series of efforts to obtain such scale-aware subgrid parametrizations, in this article we focus on the anticipated potential vorticity method (APVM) on quasi-uniform grids with varying resolutions. By a scale analysis technique and the phenomenological theories for two-dimensional turbulent flows, we derive a new formulation of the APVM, which depends on a single parameter that is, in principle, invariant with respect to the time step size, the grid resolution and the flow itself. Results of numerical experiments with this new formulation demonstrate that the optimal parameter of the APVM is invariant with respect to the time step size, insensitive to the flows, and is only weakly dependent on the grid resolution.

description: This chapter provides an overview of important topics in human resource management (HRM) that are affected by digitalization and automation. It is outlined how work in HRM is changing in areas such as mental health at work, work design, leadership and personnel development. The last section shifts focus and introduces a new way of working in HRM, known as HR analytics or people analytics. The fact that the various topics are not independent of each other and indeed intersect with each other is illuminated in the individual sections.

description: The performance of vacuum insulation panels (VIPs) is strongly affected by several factors, such as panel thickness, design, quality of vacuum, and material type. In particular, the core materials inside VIPs significantly influence their overall performance. Despite their superior insulation performance, VIPs are limited in their widespread use as structural materials, because of their low material strength and the relatively expensive core materials. As an alternative core material that can compensate these limitations, foamed concrete, a type of lightweight concrete with very low density, can be used. In this study, two different types of foamed concrete were used as VIP core materials, with their effects on the thermal behavior of the VIPs having been evaluated using experimental and numerical methods. To confirm and generate numerical models for VIP analysis, micro-computed tomography (micro-CT) was utilized. The obtained results show that insulation effects increase effectively when panels with lightweight concrete are in a vacuum, and both foamed concrete types can be effectively used as VIP core materials.
