The Effects of Concentrated Fine Ambient Air Particles on Human Hematology
Creators: name: Hall, Aron Jacob
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2001

description: Epidemiologic studies have established a strong association between exposure to air pollution particles and human mortality and morbidity. The excess in mortality is primarily attributed to respiratory injury and cardiac arrest in people with preexisting disease. It was hypothesized that particulate exposure may elicit an acute-phase response leading to blood coagulation and clotting, which may explain the observed adverse health effects. To test this hypothesis, human volunteers were exposed to concentrated ambient particles (CAPS) and blood was drawn before, 0 h post-, and 24 h post-exposure. The 30 subjects included in the study were examined as two distinct subgroups for the purposes of comparing sensitive subpopulations. Twenty young, healthy individuals (18-40 years old) were randomized to either exposure to filtered air (n=6) or CAPS (n=14). Ten geriatric, healthy individuals (60-80 years old) each had two exposures; one to filtered air and the other to CAPS. The blood indices assessed were as follows: fibrinogen, C reactiveprotein (CRP), D-Dimer, von Willebrand factor (vWF), albumin, total protein, lactate dehydrogenase (LDH), and a complete blood count with differential. Decreased numbers of red cells in the peripheral blood occurred in young subjects following exposure to CAPS (p<0.05). Increased concentrations of fibrinogen at 24 h post- and vWF at 0 h post-exposure to CAPS were observed in young subjects (p<0.09). A trend of decreasing concentrations of CRP and LDH was also observed (p<0.05). The response of young and elderly subjects to CAPS exposure differed somewhat, with a heightened response in young subjects due in part to a greater dose received. These results indicate that exposure to fine particles may elicit an acute-phase response, specifically increased blood clotting and coagulability.

description: Heart rate variability (HRV) refers to the fluctuations in time intervals between successive heart beats known as inter-beat intervals (IBI) (Shaffer & Ginsberg, 2017). It reflects the input of the autonomic nervous system to regulate neurocardiac function controlled by the brainstems medulla oblongata (Camm, et al.,1996). Research suggests that the time in which autonomic parasympathetic innervation is withdrawn during graded exercise testing, coincides with reduced HRV and the metabolic thresholds (MT); ventilatory and lactate threshold (VT and LT) (Brunetto, et al., 2005; Ramos-Campo, et al., 2017). This point is known as HRV threshold (HRVT) and proposes a possible relationship between HRVT and metabolic thresholds (Karaptian, et al., 2007). Using the HRVT to establish individualised MT’s may provide a less invasive, more accessible, time and cost-efficient approach to assess physical petformance, guide exercise prescription and provide aetiology of exercise intolerance (Löllgen, & Leyk, 2018; Levett, et al., 2018). However, a systematic evaluation of current literature summarising evidence relating to the HRVT has not been undertaken.

Alternatives to Shallow Land Burial for The Management of Low-level Radioactive Waste
Creators: name: Lee, Willie J.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1986

description: The management of low-level radioactive waste involves 1) determining volume and radioactivity content of waste generated, 2) reviewing methods of minimizing waste generation, 3) assessing current disposal practices, which happen to be shallow land burial at this time, and 4) proposing new and better methods of waste disposal. Problems have been identified regarding the use of shallow land burial in the disposal of low-level radioactive waste. Thus, it is prudent to study alternative methods of waste disposal. Five alternatives to shallow land burial have been identified and are analyzed in detail in this report.
The relative effects of dimensionality and multiplicity of hypotheses on the F-test in linear regression
Creators: name: Steinberger, Lukas
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Statistics Theory (math.ST)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: Recently, several authors have re-examined the power of the classical F-test in linear regression in a `large-p, large-n' framework (cf. Zhong and Chen (2011), Wang and Cui (2013)). They highlight the loss of power as the number of regressors p increases relative to sample size n. These papers essentially focus only on the overall test of the null hypothesis that all p slope coefficients are equal to zero. Here, we consider the general case of testing q linear hypotheses on the (p+1)-dimensional regression parameter vector that includes p slope coefficients and an intercept parameter. In the case of Gaussian design, we describe the dependence of the local asymptotic power function on both the relative number of parameters p and the number of hypotheses q being tested, showing that the negative effect of dimensionality is less severe if the number of hypotheses is small. Using the recent work of Srivastava and Vershynin (2013) on high dimensional sample covariance matrices we are also able to substantially generalize previous results for non-Gaussian regressors.

Analysis of Stray Radiation Produced by the Advance Light Source (1.9 GeV Synchrotron Radiation Source) at Lawrence Berkeley Laboratory
Creators: name: Ajemian, Robert C.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1995

description: The yearly environmental dose equivalent likely to result at the closest site boundary from the Advanced Light Source was determined by generating multiple linear regressions. The independent variables comprised quantified accelerator operating parameters and measurements from synchronized, in-close (outside shielding prior to significant atmospheric scattering), state-of-the-art neutron remmeters and photon G-M tubes. Neutron regression models were more successful than photon models due to lower relative background radiation and redundant detectors at the site boundary. As expected, Storage Ring Beam Fill and Beam Crashes produced radiation at a higher rate than gradual Beam Decay; however, only the latter did not include zero in its 95% confidence interval. By summing for all three accelerator operating modes, a combined yearly DE of 43 mRem/yr with a 90% CI of (0.04-8.63) was obtained. These results fall below the DOE reporting level of 10 mRem/year and suggest repeating the study with improved experimental conditions.

description: The sterile neutrino is a viable dark matter candidate that can be produced in the early Universe via non-equilibrium processes, and would therefore possess a highly non-thermal spectrum of primordial velocities. In this paper we analyse the process of structure formation with this class of dark matter particles. To this end we construct primordial dark matter power spectra as a function of the lepton asymmetry, $L_6$, that is present in the primordial plasma and leads to resonant sterile neutrino production. We compare these power spectra with those of thermally produced dark matter particles and show that resonantly produced sterile neutrinos are much colder than their thermal relic counterparts. We also demonstrate that the shape of these power spectra is not determined by the free-streaming scale alone. We then use the power spectra as an input for semi-analytic models of galaxy formation in order to predict the number of luminous satellite galaxies in a Milky Way-like halo. By assuming that the mass of the Milky Way halo must be no more than $2\times10^{12}M_{\odot}$ (the adopted upper bound based on current astronomical observations) we are able to constrain the value of $L_6$ for $M_s\le 8$~keV. We also show that the range of $L_6$ that is in best agreement with the 3.5~keV line (if produced by decays of 7~keV sterile neutrino) requires that the Milky Way halo has a mass no smaller than $1.5\times10^{12}M_{\odot}$. Finally, we compare the power spectra obtained by direct integration of the Boltzmann equations for a non-resonantly produced sterile neutrino with the fitting formula of Viel~et~al. and find that the latter significantly underestimates the power amplitude on scales relevant to satellite galaxies.

Environmental Labeling: Life Cycle Analysis Approach to Product Evaluation and Comparison
Creators: name: Goldenberg, Abby Gayle
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1990

description: A life cycle analysis of the diaper product category was evaluated to illustrate the generic problems in using that approach in the context of an environmental labeling program. A report by Arthur D. Little Inc. titled "Disposable versus Reusable Diapers: Health, Environmental and Economic Comparisons" was used as a case study. The analytic framework used to evaluate the report included: omission, weighting and bias. The evaluation revealed a need to establish a formal methodology to standardize and make more objective the process of life cycle analysis. In order to facilitate the establishment of an effective environmental labeling program in the United States a less comprehensive or modified life cycle analysis is recommended.

The Cloning of the Fanconi's Anemia Gene
Creators: name: Kelleher, Zachary T.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1993

description: The aim of this project was to pinpoint the location and ultimately the gene code of one of at least four possible genes of Fanconi's anemia, a human "DNA repair" disorder. In the first part of the study, microcell-mediated chromosome transfer, an established procedure, was used to transfer a normal tagged human chromosome #20 (the reputed location of the FA-A gene, carried in an A9 mouse cell line) into FA-group A lymphoblasts and fibroblasts at which point they would be tested to see if the uptake of this chromosome corrects two prominent manifestations of the FA defect, namely its inherent chromosomal instability and its hypersensitivity to DNA cross-linking agents. Success in this venture was elusive. In the second part of the study, the first steps of a proven method of gene cloning was tried involving first, the transfection of a cDNA library, carried in an Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) vector into an FA-group B cell line, and then pulling out the FA-B gene from these cells by treating them with DNA cross-linking agents and selecting for ones which have lost this hypersensitivity. Three different methods of transfection, electroporation, lipofection and endocytosis-fection, were tested to discover which was the most efficient at transferring plasmid DNA into the FA group B cells. This group, which is one of the most sensitive of the four known FA cell lines, was transfected, in transient assays, most efficiently via endocytosis-fection. However, the attempt to select for long term maintenance of plasmid DNA was unsuccessful for FA-B cells using any of the transfection methods. However, successful maintenance of the cDNA-containing plasmid by FA-A lymphoblasts was obtained. Modifications are being made to circumvent the problem with the former cell line while work continues to build on the success with the latter cell line.

Subjects: subject: Social and Behavioral Sciences

description: Investigations often reveal that organized networks, rather than lone-wolves, commit high-level crimes, for example, the Westgate shopping mall and the 9/11 attacks. However, current intelligence gathering research has focused solely on examining scenarios involving single participants or small cells of approximately two to three participants. Possibly, resource and feasibility constraints may have contributed to the lack of experimental research on networks involving multiple participants. This work has two goals; (a) to introduce an experimental paradigm that may allow researchers to create and examine mock illicit networks; and (b) to explore how members of illicit networks communicate between themselves when planning their activities.

description: Lineage tracing, the tracking of living cells as they move and divide, is a central problem in biological image analysis. Solutions, called lineage forests, are key to understanding how the structure of multicellular organisms emerges. We propose an integer linear program (ILP) whose feasible solutions define a decomposition of each image in a sequence into cells (segmentation), and a lineage forest of cells across images (tracing). Unlike previous formulations, we do not constrain the set of decompositions, except by contracting pixels to superpixels. The main challenge, as we show, is to enforce the morality of lineages, i.e., the constraint that cells do not merge. To enforce morality, we introduce path-cut inequalities. To find feasible solutions of the NP-hard ILP, with certified bounds to the global optimum, we define efficient separation procedures and apply these as part of a branch-and-cut algorithm. We show the effectiveness of this approach by analyzing feasible solutions for real microscopy data in terms of bounds and run-time, and by their weighted edit distance to ground truth lineage forests traced by humans.

An Investigation into the Effects of Heterogeneity on Subsurface Flow and Transport
Creators: name: Nelson, Elizabeth M.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1991

description: The risk of groundwater contamination by land-applied organic chemicals is a growing concern. Prediction of the fate and persistence of contaminants in the subsurface is desirable. Soil hydraulic properties are rarely homogeneous and their transient nature has a profound effect on fluid flow and solute transport. Evidence suggests that sorption is a significant process impacting the movement of contaminants through the unsaturated zone. Sorption rate and equilibrium experiments were conducted in completely mixed batch reactors using metolachlor on two soil columns divided into 12 segments each. The equilibrium data were modeled with the linear model and the Freundlich expression. A surface-diffusion model was used to describe the rate data. The results of these laboratory studies were used in conjunction with field data acquired using soil columns in the vicinity of the site from whence the laboratory soils came to test the Pesticide Root Zone Model (PRZM). The results of these experiments showed that the equilibrium data were nonlinear and best fit with the Freundlich expression. However, the linear partition coefficients were highly correlated with the fraction of organic carbon in the soils. PRZM was able to predict field flow data quite well, but was unable to describe contaminant movement.

description: We propose a novel possibility of dynamically changing the pairing of superconductors from $s$ wave to $η$ pairing (where the pairs condense at the Brillouin-zone corner momenta) by driving the system with ac fields. We consider a periodically-driven attractive Hubbard model in the strong-coupling regime, and show that the pair-hopping and pair-repulsion terms in the effective Hamiltonian in the Floquet formalism are drastically renormalized in different manners between the two terms, which can change the ground states from an $s$-wave superconductivity to an $η$-pairing superconductivity or a charge-ordered phase. While in isolated systems such as cold atoms a simple quench scheme would not realize the dynamical phase transition into $η$ pairing, we show that there are pathways that realize the dynamical transition, where the field amplitude is varied via a charge-ordered phase as an intermediate state.

Year: 1988

description: The uses of formaldehyde in a medical center, commercial availability, and possible health effects of exposure are discussed. The new OSHA standard and the need for this study are presented. Formaldehyde usage is classified according to type, location, and amount of use. A sampling strategy was developed to determine possible exposures throughout the medical center. Available sampling methods and analytical procedures are listed and those chosen are discussed. Sample results are presented by area according to type of use. A brief discussion of operations being carried out in each area and a summary of sampling results are given. Results of almost all formaldehyde sampling were below new OSHA standards. For those above prescribed OSHA levels, all follow-up samples were below the standard after implementing administrative controls. Recommendations are made to help with continued formaldehyde sampling at the medical center. The medical center is currently in compliance with the new OSHA requirements. Reliable, efficient, and cost effective means of routine sampling needed to stay in compliance are discussed.

description: The origin of the Fermi bubbles, which constitute two gamma-ray emitting lobes above and below the Galactic plane, remains unclear. The possibility that this Fermi bubbles gamma-ray emission originates from hadronic cosmic rays advected by a subsonic Galactic outflow, or breeze, is here explored. The simulation of a breeze solution and subsequent cosmic ray transport is carried out using the hydrodynamical code, PLUTO, in combination with a cosmic ray transport code. The Galactic outflow model obtained is found to be compatible with both inferences of the decelerating outflow velocity profile of the gas in the Fermi bubbles region, and evidence for the presence of a large amount of hot ionised gas out in the Galactic halo region. Although simple, this model is found to be able to reproduce the observed Fermi-LAT energy flux at high Galactic latitudes. Following these results a prediction concerning the gamma-ray emission for 1-3~TeV photons is made for future comparison with CTA/SWGO measurements.
An Analysis of Changes in Threshold Limit Values Over Time
Creators: name: Nelson, Roger W.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1993

description: Threshold Limit Values (TLVs) for industrial chemicals have been in existence since 1946. It has been proposed that the rate of change of TLVs over the years reflects the rate of change of exposure within industry (Roach and Rappaport, 1990). In this paper, a detailed analysis of TLVs as a whole, industry specific TLVs, and TLVs for known or suspected carcinogens was made to determine the rate of change of TLVs between 1946 and 1990. It was found that the median fold reduction for all TLVs was 2.0. For most industries in this analysis it was also 2.0- fold, and for known or suspected carcinogens it was 2.4-fold. The rate of change for all TLVs decreased with time (21.7% reductions per year in 1951 to 13.3% per year in 1990). For most industries the reduction rate was 13.3% reductions per year, while for known or suspected carcinogens it was 16% per year. It is postulated that the results of this analysis can be used to infer past exposures.

description: One of the most prominent features of the Grand Canyon is the iron-stained Redwall Limestone, which has been documented to contain extensive cave systems with significant storage potential in the karstic Redwall-Muav (R-M) aquifer. The hydrogeologic relationships between the R-M aquifer and cave formation in the Grand Canyon via descending (epigenic) surface waters have been well documented. However; the potentially large role of deeply sourced (hypogenic) waters rising from depth in relation to cave formation is poorly understood. The Bopper Cave System (BCS) is a relict feature of the ancient abandoned hydrologic system at Grand Canyon and displays unique network maze cave morphologies formed under phreatic conditions with rich and diverse mineral associations of allochthonous sediments. There are competing hypotheses on confined network maze cave development in the Grand Canyon, with observations supporting both epigenic and hypogenic processes. The nature of expansive phreatic passages, cupolas, solution pockets, and lack of vadose features suggest that the BCS was formed from hypogene speleogenesis. X-ray diffraction identifies vast amounts of speleogenetic gypsum deposits, other varieties of sulfates, and corrosion residue, all of which indicate that the dominant hypogene fluid was sulfuric acid-bearing. 𝛿34S values for gypsum flowers from Double Bopper range from 0.6‰ to -13.9‰ (VCDT), with an average of -6.4‰ (n=25). Sulfur isotopes identify three plausible sources of sulfuric acid in the Grand Canyon region including magmatic sulfur, sulfide oxidation from pyrite, and sulfide oxidation from hydrocarbons. Identifying sulfuric acid speleogenesis (SAS) and the ancient hydrogeologic conditions necessary for network maze cave development holds implications for better understanding the evolution and dynamics of the modern aquifer. Present-day hypogene speleogenesis may contribute to significant previously unrecognized mega-conduit storage capacity in the modern Redwall-Muav aquifer.

description: In this paper, we confirm several conjectured congruences of Sun concerning the divisibility of binomial sums. For example, with help of a quadratic hypergeometric transformation, we prove that $$ \sum_{k=0}^{p-1}\binom{p-1}k\binom{2k}k^2\frac{P_k}{8^k}\equiv0\pmod{p^2} $$ for any prime $p\equiv 7\mod{8}$, where $P_k$ is the $k$-th Pell number. Further, we also propose three new congruences of the same type.

title: The thermal biology of Carcinus maenas as a tool for conservation, mitigation, and invasion predictions
Creators: name: Biggar, Brandy S.
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
Year: 2021

description: Carcinus maenas is a thermally tolerant invasive species that have successfully colonized every continent except Antarctica. Invasive species negatively impact native species, and C. maenas, in particular, has been implicated in the local losses of several ecologically important species. Anthropogenic activities are primarily to blame for species invasions, and climate change will exacerbate their dominance over native species. In this thesis, I explore the thermal ecology of C. maenas by mapping their thermal niche, modeling changes in abundance and temperature, and synthesizing thermal limits. Using mixed modeling of global abundance data, I show that the green crab abundance is not changing globally and that their abundance is related to temperature variability. By reviewing the literature, I show that green crabs have life-stage and region-specific tolerances. Juvenile green crabs appear to be the most vulnerable stage and may be responsible for driving changes in green crab abundance. I also review knowledge gaps and recommendations for future research, including standardizing methods and resolving unknown adult thermal limits. This thesis presents Carcinus maenas as an incredibly robust species with vast thermal tolerances promoting their global invasion.
The decay $τ\rightarrow K^{-}π^{0}ν_τ$ in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model

description: In this paper, the width of the decay $τ\rightarrow K^{-}π^{0}ν_τ$ is calculated in the framework of the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model. The contributions of the intermediate vector $K^{*}(892)$ and scalar $K_{0}^{*}(800)$ mesons are taken into account. It is shown that the main contribution to the width of this decay is given by the subprocesses with the intermediate $W$-boson and vector $K^{*}(892)$ meson. The scalar channel with the intermediate $K_{0}^{*}(800)$ meson gives an insignificant contribution. In Appendix, it is shown that the contribution of the subprocess with the intermediate ${K^{*}}'(1410)$ meson is negligible as well. The obtained results are in satisfactory agreement with the experimental data.

Exact numerical calculation of fixation probability and time on graphs

description: The Moran process on graphs is a popular model to study the dynamics of evolution in a spatially structured population. Exact analytical solutions for the fixation probability and time of a new mutant have been found for only a few classes of graphs so far. Simulations are time-expensive and many realizations are necessary, as the variance of the fixation times is high. We present an algorithm that numerically computes these quantities for arbitrary small graphs by an approach based on the transition matrix. The advantage over simulations is that the calculation has to be executed only once. Building the transition matrix is automated by our algorithm. This enables a fast and interactive study of different graph structures and their effect on fixation probability and time. We provide a fast implementation in C with this note https://github.com/hindersin/efficientFixation. Our code is very flexible, as it can handle two different update mechanisms (Birth-death or death-Birth), as well as arbitrary directed or undirected graphs.
An Investigation of Interphase Mass Transfer at the Saturated-Unsaturated Zone Inferface
Creators: name: Szatkowski, Andrew
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries

description: Many contaminants of concern in the subsurface are volatile. This fact has been exploited of late in the application of vapor-phase extraction methods for aquifer rehabilitation. The design of vapor-phase extraction systems may be aided by use of mathematical models to simulate the restoration process. Because many common contamination problems are multiphase problems, these simulations often require the use of compositional multiphase models. A common assumption made in compositional multiphase models is that individual solute species are in equilibrium for all phases present in a system: solid, aqueous, immiscible fluid, and vapor. This work reports on an investigation to characterize the rate of mass transfer between the aqueous and vapor phases. A rectangular cross-section experimental apparatus was designed and built to investigate the rate of mass transfer at the interface between the unsaturated and saturated zone. Aqueous solutions with the solute toluene were circulated through a porous media, while depth-averaged aqueous- and vapor-phase concentrations were measured at the inlet and outlet. Experimental control variables included the aqueous-phase velocity, vapor-phase velocity, influent solute concentration, and media size. Data reduction required determination of longitudinal and transverse dispersivity, which was accomplished using a fluoride tracer method along with a two-dimensional finite element model. In addition, a numerical code was developed to model the transport of VOC's in the subsurface, and the code was used in conjunction with the lab data to simulate toluene transport under ambient conditions. Results from the simulations indicate that the aqueous and vapor phases may not be in equilibrium at the unsaturated-saturated zone interface throughout much of the area of a contaminant plume.

Hot third family of compact stars and the possibility of core-collapse supernova explosions

description: A phase transition to quark matter can lead to interesting phenomenological consequences in core-collapse supernovae, e.g., triggering an explosion in spherically symmetric models. However, until now this explosion mechanism was only shown to be working for equations of state that are in contradiction with recent pulsar mass measurements. Here, we identify that this explosion mechanism is related to the existence of a third family of compact stars. For the equations of state investigated, the third family is only pronounced in the hot, early stages of the protocompact star and absent or negligibly small at zero temperature and thus represents a novel kind of third family. This interesting behavior is a result of unusual thermal properties induced by the phase transition, e.g., characterized by a decrease of temperature with increasing density for isentropes, and can be related to a negative slope of the phase transition line in the temperature-pressure phase diagram.
