description: FAMILY HIMEROMETRIDAE A.H. CLARK, 1908a
Remarks: Within Himerometroidea, as currently construed on morphological grounds, Himerometridae includes Himerometra, Amphimetra, Heterometra, Homalometra, Craspedometra and the fossil Discometra, and is characterized by primibrachials united by synarthry with the following brachitaxes of chiefly four ossicles; brachials of undivided arms short and disc-like, and the adoral surface of the centrodorsal bearing Y-shaped or radiating coelomic furrows (Hess & Messing, 2011). Extant members are restricted to the tropical Indo-western Pacific region at depths almost entirely <100 m. Species of Amphimetra normally have ten arms, but rare additional arms arise from brachitaxes of two ossicles. Hemery (2011) placed Amphimetra within a clade of mariametrids (as sister to two Lamprometra terminals), which also have brachitaxes of two ossicles. Her larger mariametrid clade, consisting of Lamprometra and Mariametra terminals, also included one of the two Heterometra terminals, although these sequence data are yet to be published. Summers & Rouse (2014) also showed Amphimetra nested among mariametrid terminals rather than with Himerometra. Currently, no morphological synapomorphies have been identified that diagnose Himerometridae to the exclusion of those taxa that molecular evidence suggests fall outside the family.

description: We present time series photometry of 57 variable stars in the cluster region NGC 7380. The association of these variable stars to the cluster NGC 7380 has been established on the basis of two colour diagrams and colour-magnitude diagrams. Seventeen stars are found to be main-sequence variables, which are mainly B type stars and are classified as slowly pulsating B stars, $β$ Cep or $δ$ Scuti stars. Some of them may belong to new class variables as discussed by Mowlavi et al. (2013) and Lata et al. (2014). Present sample also contains 14 pre-main-sequence stars, whose ages and masses are found to be mostly $\lesssim$ 5 Myr and range 0.60 $\lesssim M/M_{\odot} \lesssim$ 2.30 and hence should be T-Tauri stars. About half of the weak line T-Tauri stars are found to be fast rotators with a period of $\lesssim$ 2 days as compared to the classical T-Tauri stars. Some of the variables belong to the field star population.

Spectral energy analysis of locally resonant nanophononic metamaterials by molecular simulations

description: A nanophononic metamaterial is a new type of nanostructured material that features an array, or a forest, of intrinsically distributed resonating substructures. Each substructure exhibits numerous local resonances, each of which may hybridize with the phonon dispersion of the underlying host material causing significant reductions in the group velocities and consequently a reduction in the lattice thermal conductivity. In this paper, molecular dynamics simulations are utilized to investigate both the dynamics and the thermal transport properties of a nanophononic metamaterial configuration consisting of a freely suspended silicon membrane with an array of silicon nanopillars standing on the surface. The simulations yield results consistent with earlier lattice-dynamics based predictions which showed a reduction in the thermal conductivity due to the presence of the local resonators. Using a spectral energy density approach, in which only simulation data is utilized and no a priori information on the nanostructure resonant phonon modes is provided, we show direct evidence of the existence of resonance hybridizations as an inherent mechanism contributing to the slowing down of thermal transport in this system.

Understanding the entanglements between wealth status and equitable forest based livelihood outcomes under different decentralized contexts in Tanzania; Does community based forest management have an equalizing effect?

description: Decentralized natural resource management is now widely implemented across the developing world, however much uncertainty remains over whether such programs really achieve their mulit-faceted aims, and how they should be structured at local levels to be equitable and effective. In the forest sector this increasingly popular paradigm is intended to improve forest conservation, governance and local livelihoods in parallel. While forest outcomes have received greater attention in existing literature there is less empirical support or clarity around how forest sector decentralization effects the equity of governance and livelihood outcomes. This study seeks to understand how greater levels of decentralized community rights and responsibilities under a “pro poor” Community Based Forest Management (CBFM) regime functions to attenuate elite capture, or instead reproduce existing marginalities within communities. To do so I exploit the co-occurrence of CBFM regimes alongside of state forests and state-community co-managed forests. Where these regimes are adjacent provides the opportunity to better understand how a household’s access to CBFM might alter their participation in forest institutions and access to resources shifting the trajectory of outcomes. To do so extensive quantitative and qualitative household survey data are analyzed from 349 households drawn from 12 communities with state or co-managed forests where half of the sample additionally have CBFM processes. Particular attention is paid to whether there is any evidence of positive spillover effects, interactions or trade-offs across governance or livelihood objectives attributable to the presence of CBFM. To connect these separate policy objectives this study draws conclusions as to whether institutions for forest governance may serve as a pathway to changing livelihood benefits, and ways in which pre-existing household wealth status mediate access to both.

description: There has been a recent shift from person-first to identity-first language to describe autism. In this study, Australian adults who reported having a diagnosis of autism (N = 198) rated and ranked autism-terms for preference and offensiveness, and explained their choice in free-text. ‘Autistic’, ‘Person on the Autism Spectrum’, and ‘Autistic Person’ were rated most preferred and least offensive overall. Ranked-means showed ‘person on the autism spectrum’ was the most preferred term overall. Six qualitative themes reflected (1) autism as core to, or (2) part of one’s identity, (3) ‘spectrum’ reflecting diversity, (4) the rejection of stigmatising and (5) medicalised language, and (6) pragmatics. These findings highlight the importance of inclusive dialogue regarding individual language preference.

description: We compare the observed size distribution of circum stellar disks in the Orion Trapezium cluster with the results of $N$-body simulations in which we incorporated an heuristic prescription for the evolution of these disks. In our simulations, the sizes of stellar disks are affected by close encounters with other stars (with disks). We find that the observed distribution of disk sizes in the Orion Trapezium cluster is excellently reproduced by truncation due to dynamical encounters alone. The observed distribution appears to be a sensitive measure of the past dynamical history of the cluster, and therewith on the conditions of the cluster at birth. The best comparison between the observed disk size distribution and the simulated distribution is realized with a cluster of $N = 2500\pm500$ stars with a half-mass radius of about 0.5\,pc in virial equilibrium (with a virial ratio of $Q = 0.5$, or somewhat colder $Q \simeq 0.3$), and with a density structure according to a fractal dimension of $F \simeq 1.6$. Simulations with these parameters reproduce the observed distribution of circum stellar disks in about 0.2--0.5\,Myr.

Lexical strata in loanword phonology: Spanish loans in Guarani
Creators: name: Pinta, Justin D.
Publisher: name: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Year: 2013

description: An analysis of a corpus of Spanish loanwords in Paraguayan Guarani shows the stratified structure of the Guarani lexicon evidenced by varying phonological repair strategies in the loans. Ito and Mester (1999 and earlier work) show that a language with a synchronically relevant stratified lexicon displays impossible nativization effects. The phonology and morphology of Guarani provide evidence for the synchronic relevance of the stratification, and as expected the corpus shows specific nativization strategies which are unattested. A nonce-word experiment with native Guarani speakers shows that in some cases, but not all, impossible nativizations are strongly avoided by native speakers. The Ito and Mester (1999) model handles the impossible nativizations within Optimality Theory through their proposed ranking consistency of faithfulness constraints across strata. Variable repair strategies of certain Spanish phonological structures in Guarani in addition to the results of the experiment present a theoretical problem for ranking consistency.

description: In a recent paper the so-called Spectrum Generating Algebra (SGA) technique has been applied to the N-dimensional Taub-NUT system, a maximally superintegrable Hamiltonian system which can be interpreted as a one-parameter deformation of the Kepler-Coulomb system. Such a Hamiltonian is associated to a specific Bertrand space of non-constant curvature. The SGA procedure unveils the symmetry algebra underlying the Hamiltonian system and, moreover, enables one to solve the equations of motion. Here we will follow the same path to tackle the Darboux III system, another maximally superintegrable system, which can indeed be viewed as a natural deformation of the isotropic harmonic oscillator where the flat Euclidean space is again replaced by another space of non-constant curvature.

description: When searching for a target object, we engage in a continuous “look-identify” cycle in which we use known features of the target to guide attention toward potential targets and then to decide whether the selected object is indeed the target. Target information in memory (the target template or attentional template) is typically characterized as having a single, fixed source. However, debate has recently emerged over whether flexibility in the target template is relational or optimal. On the basis of evidence from two experiments using college students (Ns = 30 and 70, respectively), we propose that initial guidance of attention uses a coarse relational code, but subsequent decisions use an optimal code. Our results offer a novel perspective that the precision of template information differs when guiding sensory selection and when making identity decisions during visual search.
Automodel solutions for Lévy flight-based transport on a uniform background

description: A wide class of non-stationary superdiffusive transport on a uniform background with a power-law decay, at large distances, of the step-length probability distribution function (PDF) is shown to possess an automodel solution. The solution for Green function is constructed using the scaling laws for the propagation front (relevant-to-superdiffusion average displacement) and asymptotic solutions far beyond and far in advance of the propagation front. These scaling laws are determined essentially by the long-free-path carriers (Lévy flights). The validity of the suggested automodel solution is proved by its comparison with numerical solutions in the one-dimensional (1D) case of the transport equation with a simple long-tailed PDF with various power-law exponents and in the 3D case of the Biberman-Holstein equation of the resonance radiation transfer for various (Doppler, Lorentz, Voight and Holtsmark) spectral line shapes.

Comparison of Anatase Titania to Titanate Nanotubes in a Thin-Film Dye-Sensitized Solar Cell with Liquid and Solid Electrolyte
Creators: name: Brosnan, Daniel T.
Publisher: name: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Year: 2011

description: In this project, the properties of anatase titanium dioxide and titanate nanotubes were compared with respect to their function as a constituent material for the active layer of a dye-sensitized solar cell. A common cell configuration was used to examine the variation of cell function as a result of differences in composition, use of a solid or liquid electrolyte, and variation of processing and chemical treatment procedure, as well as the interaction of these varied parameters. The work performed in this study consisted of the development of a cell configuration demonstrating good photovoltaic characteristics and repeatable manufacture, determination of parameters relevant to the performance of these photovoltaic devices, manufacture of a set of devices to examine the effects of variation of these parameters, and testing of these devices under standardized conditions to enable comparison of the devices to each other and to published results, as well as to elucidate the underlying causes of observed performance differences. A performance difference between the anatase and nanotube electrodes is demonstrated, with the anatase devices performing as well as or better than nanotube devices for all preparatory conditions, and experiencing a further gain in performance from the substitution of a plasticized polymer electrolyte for the standard liquid electrolyte, compared to no change or worsened performance for nanotube based devices.

description: We consider a class of elasticity equations in ${\mathbb R}^d$ whose elastic moduli depend on $n$ separated microscopic scales, are random and expressed as a linear expansion of a countable sequence of random variables which are independently and identically uniformly distributed in a compact interval. The multiscale Hellinger-Reissner problem that allows for computing the stress directly, and the multiscale mixed problem for nearly incompressible isotropic materials are considered. The stochastic problems are studied via deterministic problems that depend on a countable number of real parameters. We study the multiscale homogenized problems that contain all the macroscopic and microscopic information, whose solutions are written as generalized polynomial chaos (gpc) expansions. We approximate these solutions by semidiscrete Galerkin approximating problems that project into the spaces of functions with only a finite number of $N$ gpc modes. We deduce bounds and summability properties for the solutions' gpc expansion coefficients, which imply explicit rates of convergence in terms of $N$ when the gpc modes used for the Galerkin approximation are chosen to correspond to the best $N$ terms in the gpc expansion. For the mixed problem for nearly incompressible materials, the rate of convergence for the best $N$ term approximation is independent of the Lamé constants' ratio. We establish parametric correctors in terms of the semidiscrete Galerkin approximations. For two scale problems, an explicit homogenization rate is deduced. Together with the best $N$ term rate, it provides an explicit convergence rate for the correctors of the parametric multiscale problems. For nearly incompressible materials, we obtain a homogenization rate that is independent of the ratio of the Lamé constants, so that the error for the corrector is also independent of this ratio.

Death at First Sight: The Duality of Love in Thibaut de Champagne and Ibn Quzman
Creators: name: Blankinship, Kevin
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2009

description: This study compares between the secular love poetry of thirteenth-century trouvère Thibaut de Champagne and twelfth-century Andalusian author Ibn Quzman. Both poets portray passion as binary, since it incites both joy and pain. Their individual meditations on the duality of love focus especially on visual contemplation of beauty as the impetus to love. However, the effects of seeing beauty, like courtly love itself, are also binary. Both Thibaut de Champagne and Ibn Quzman attempt to deal with this optical paradox through the idealization of human passion: each poet sets up the beloved as an object of worship. In Thibaut, this appears as an ennobling, courtly love religion; while Ibn Quzman's visual considerations of beauty end up in sensual flesh worship. Without a way to settle the tension between joy and grief of profane love, the poet finally succumbs to passion in martyrdom; such a fate is seen in Thibaut and Ibn Quzman not only as inevitable, but also desirable.

description: A worldwide increase in proportions of older people in the population poses the challenge of managing their increasing healthcare needs within limited resources. To achieve this many countries are interested in adopting telehealth technology. Several shortcomings of state-of-the-art telehealth technology constrain widespread adoption of telehealth services. We present an ensemble-sensing framework - wHealth (short form of wireless health) for effective delivery of telehealth services. It extracts personal health information using sensors embedded in everyday devices and allows effective and seamless communication between patients and clinicians. Due to the non-stigmatizing design, ease of maintenance, simplistic interaction and seamless intervention, our wHealth platform has the potential to enable widespread adoption of telehealth services for managing elderly healthcare. We discuss the key barriers and potential solutions to make the wHealth platform a reality.
TRANSATLANIC INTELLIGENCE SHARING AND THE FIGHT AGAINST TERRORISM
Creators: name: Drabot, Andrea Lynne
Publisher: name: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Year: 2013

description: The 9/11 attacks against the United States shed light on the growing threat of international terrorist networks. Before 9/11, the US and its European allies were ill prepared to deal with the international nature of today's terrorist organizations, which utilize modern technologies such as the internet, advanced communication networks, and social media to finance, plan and execute attacks. Although traditional US-European alliances remain strong, they are unable to adequately combat global terrorism. As a result, intelligence sharing and counterterrorism coordination between the US and Europe has increased significantly since the 9/11 attacks. The US and the EU are developing complex, and sometimes controversial, intelligence sharing and counterterrorism relationships. This paper addresses the dynamic nature of the US-EU counterterrorism and intelligence sharing relationship. In addition to US-EU relations, this paper also addresses the special US-UK relationship in relation to intelligence sharing and counterterrorism coordination in the post 9/11 era.

description: We examine the phase space structures that govern reaction dynamics in the absence of critical points on the potential energy surface. We show that in the vicinity of hyperbolic invariant tori it is possible to define phase space dividing surfaces that are analogous to the dividing surfaces governing transition from reactants to products near a critical point of the potential energy surface. We investigate the problem of capture of an atom by a diatomic molecule and show that a normally hyperbolic invariant manifold exists at large atom-diatom distances, away from any critical points on the potential. This normally hyperbolic invariant manifold is the anchor for the construction of a dividing surface in phase space, which defines the outer or loose transition state governing capture dynamics. We present an algorithm for sampling an approximate capture dividing surface, and apply our methods to the recombination of the ozone molecule. We treat both 2 and 3 degree of freedom models with zero total angular momentum. We have located the normally hyperbolic invariant manifold from which the orbiting (outer) transition state is constructed. This forms the basis for our analysis of trajectories for ozone in general, but with particular emphasis on the roaming trajectories.

Human trafficking: explaining levels of practice
Creators: name: Tello, Jacqueline L.
Publisher: name: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

description: Considered to be the modern form of slavery, numerous states have undertaken significant measures to combat human trafficking. Yet, while a majority of states have enacted legislation specifically targeting human trafficking, there has been a discrepancy between law and practice. I argue that central to understanding the variation of governments' human trafficking practices is identifying the overall strength of local human rights organizations. The results of this paper provide support for my argument that the overall strength of local human rights organizations drives governments' human trafficking practices.

The impact of war on the health system of the Tigray region in Ethiopia: An assessment

Subjects: Social determinants of health

description: The war in Tigray region of Ethiopia that started in November 2020 and is still ongoing has brought enormous damage to the health system. This analysis provides an assessment of the health system before and during the war. Evidence of damage was compiled from November 2020 to June 2021 from various reports by the interim government of Tigray, and also by international non-governmental organisations. Comparison was made with data from the prewar calendar year. Six months into the war, only 30% of hospitals, 17% of health centres, 11.5% of ambulances and none of the 712 health posts were functional. As of June 2021, the population in need of emergency food assistance in Tigray increased from less than one million to over 5.2 million. While the prewar performance of antenatal care, supervised delivery, postnatal care and children vaccination was 64%, 73%, 63% and 73%, respectively, but none of the services were likely to be delivered in the first 90 days of the war. A conservative estimate places the number of girls and women raped in the first 5 months of the war to be 10 000. These data indicate a widespread destruction of livelihoods and a collapse of the healthcare system. The use of hunger and rape as a weapon of war and the targeting of healthcare facilities are key components of the war. To avert worsening conditions, an immediate intervention is needed to deliver food and supplies and rehabilitate the healthcare delivery system and infrastructure.

Stochastic Gyroresonant Acceleration for Hard Electron Spectra of Blazars: Effect of Damping of Cascading Turbulence
Creators: name: Kakuwa, Jun
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Stochastic acceleration of nonthermal electrons is investigated in the context of hard photon spectra of blazars. It is well known that this acceleration mechanism can produce a hard electron spectrum of $m \equiv \partial \ln n_{\rm e}(γ)/\partial \ln γ= 2$ with the high-energy cutoff, called an ultrarelativistic Maxwellian-like distribution, where $n_{\rm e}(γ)$ is an electron energy spectrum. We revisit the formation of this characteristic spectrum, considering a particular situation where the electrons are accelerated through gyroresonant interaction with magnetohydrodynamic wave turbulence driven by the turbulent cascade. By solving kinetic equations of the turbulent fields, electrons, and photons emitted via the synchrotron self-Compton (SSC) process, we demonstrate that in the non-test-particle treatment, the formation of a Maxwellian-like distribution is prevented by the damping effect on the turbulent fields due to the electron acceleration, at least unless an extreme parameter value is chosen. Instead, a softer electron spectrum with the index of $m \approx -1$ is produced if the Kolmogorov-type cascade is assumed. The SSC spectrum that originates from the resultant softer electron spectrum is still hard, but somewhat softer and broader than the case of $m=2$. This change of achievable hardness should be noted when this basic particle acceleration scenario is tested with observations of hard photon spectra accurately.

Strategic innovation, foresight and the deployment of project portfolio management under mid-range planning conditions in medium-sized firms
Creators: name: Hadjinicolaou, Nick
name: Kader, Mohamad
Publisher: name: Torrens University Australia
Year: 2023
Subjects: Sustainability accounting and reporting

description: The purpose of this paper is to examine the ability of a firm to innovate and absorb its innovative developments by borrowing concepts and models from project portfolio management (PPM). Using past research and the existing literature, it evaluates the potential to apply PPM to the medium-term strategic planning efforts of small-and medium-sized firms. The implementation of strategic innovation requires organizations to develop both a dynamic culture and flexible internal systems that yield to major external changes in their industry as well as internal resource changes. Such changes could include supply or value chain adjustments, changes in consumer behavior, reallocation of internal resources or the responses of competitors. This paper examines the planning and implementation of project portfolio management tools in small-and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) (50–250 employees) with a mid-range (2–4 years) planning horizon that are required to innovate in a strategic context to remain competitive or to take advantage of new opportunities. It relates strategic foresight to the ability of the firm to adjust tactically, including in the utilization and development of internal tools, processes, systems and culture. This paper contributes to the literature by examining the potential for PPM methodologies and models to support decision making in a strategic context in SMEs, an area that is under-represented in the research on strategy. It also relates this foresight with strategic innovation and draws parallels between the strategic management planning process and the use of project portfolio management models. It argues that strategic innovation is closely tied with the ability not just to innovate but to absorb this innovation within the organizational processes and build organizational maturity. It also examines the potential use of project portfolio management models to aid strategic innovation. The use of PPM models in support of strategic innovation may contribute to the sustainability of SMEs as businesses and to the potential to identify new business models that enhance the sustainability of a firm’s competitive advantage, particularly in mid-term.
