Working Toward a Different Narrative of Accountability: A Report from British Columbia
Creators: name: Mathison, Sandra
Publisher: name: Workplace: A Journal for Academic Labor
Year: 2012

description: This speech given at the Annual General Meeting of the British Columbia Teachers Federation on March 20, 2012 describes the current climate of neo-liberal driven accountability, a relationship between the provincial government and teachers that has existed since 2001 and has steadily eroded since then. An alternative narrative of accountability is offered, one that encourages teachers to spend time building relationships at the local school level.

Machine learning modeling of a direct-injected dual-fuel engine based on low density experimental data
Creators: name: Karpinski-Leydier, Michael
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: Automotive systems are constantly increasing in complexity, requiring advanced modeling methods with large data sets to analyze these systems. This work proposes a machine learning approach to rapidly developing, steady state, control oriented, engine models that use optimization methods and engineering knowledge to reduce the burden of data collection and improve model performance and reliability. Data is collected from a pilot ignited direct injection natural gas engine using a full factorial approach for a high density data set and a design of experiments approach for a low density training data set with randomized validation data. An optimization approach for selecting hyperparameters for neural network and Gaussian process regression models is proposed. Models for emissions and performance metrics are created and compared to response surface models. The hyperparameter optimized models show an improvement in robustness and model performance, reducing the normalized root mean square error by 26% compared to other hyperparameter configurations. Gaussian process regression hyperparameter optimization shows the lowest error, 46% lower than response surface models. The Gaussian process regression hyperparameter optimized models are further improved using multi-region modeling, sensitivity analysis based input reduction, layered modeling, and hybrid layered modeling. The sensitivity based input reduction reduces the normalized root mean square error for all models by an average of 8% and up to 19%. The layered models reduce the normalized root mean square error for the CO by 52%, NOₓ by 30%, and particulate matter by 33%. The multi-region models reduce the normalized root mean square error for the O₂ by 40% and thermal efficiency by 16%. Using the best techniques for each output, the error is reduced by 19%, compared to hyperparameter optimization alone and 45% compared to typical Gaussian process regression models. These results show that hyperparameter optimization combined with the other techniques presented here significantly reduce model error. Using these techniques, it is possible to reduce the reliance on data for engine modeling. Future research in energy conversion technologies can use these techniques to rapidly develop new technologies without the cost in time and funding typically reserved for extensive data collection.

description: Hot-Jupiter planets must form at large separations from their host stars where the temperatures are cool enough for their cores to condense. They then migrate inwards to their current observed orbital separations. Different theories of how this migration occurs lead to varying distributions of orbital eccentricity and the alignment between the rotation axis of the star and the orbital axis of the planet. The spin-orbit alignment of a transiting system is revealed via the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect, which is the anomaly present in the radial velocity measurements of the rotating star during transit due to the planet blocking some of the starlight. In this paper we aim to measure the spin-orbit alignment of the WASP-3 system via a new way of analysing the Rossiter-McLaughlin observations. We apply a new tomographic method for analysing the time variable asymmetry of stellar line profiles caused by the Rossiter-McLaughlin effect. This new method eliminates the systematic error inherent in previous methods used to analyse the effect. We find a value for the projected stellar spin rate of v sin i = 13.9 \pm 0.03 km/s which is in agreement with previous measurements but has a much higher precision. The system is found to be well aligned which favours an evolutionary history for WASP-3b involving migration through tidal interactions with a protoplanetary disc. Using gyrochronology we estimate the age of the star to be ~300 Myr with an upper limit of 2 Gyr from comparison with isochrones.

The New Critiquette and Old Scholactivism: A Petit Critique of Academic Manners, Managers, Matters, and Freedom
Creators: name: Petrina, Stephen
Publisher: name: Workplace: A Journal for Academic Labor
Year: 2012

description: This article coins and juxtaposes two new concepts or terms, critiquette and scholactivism, distilled from longstanding practices.  Critiquette refers to the etiquette of critique as well as little everyday criticisms we level on each other and things we evaluate.  Scholactivism refers to scholar-activism, which has recently run up against policies designed to suppress criticism and academic freedom, and contradicts contemporary trends in the critique of critique.  Following analysis of the new critiquette policies, including respectful environment and workplace decrees, the article provides two historical narratives of critiquette.  The first is a history of the etiquette of critique and criticism while the second attends to historical and theoretical practices in the critique of critique (e.g., Latour and Ranciere).  The last section addresses the academic freedom implications of critical mannerisms.  Although the new critiquette issues from academic managers invested in critiphobia and offers a series of disturbing threats to academic freedom, criticism, and critique, old scholactivism is nevertheless on the upswing with economic and cultural protest unsettling routine academic matters.

Noncommutative Time in Quantum Field Theory

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We analyze, starting from first principles, the quantization of field theories, in order to find out to which problems a noncommutative time would possibly lead. We examine the problem in the interaction picture (Tomonaga-Schwinger equation), the Heisenberg picture (Yang-Feldman-Källén equation) and the path integral approach. They all indicate inconsistency when time is taken as a noncommutative coordinate. The causality issue appears as the key aspect, while the unitarity problem is subsidiary. These results are consistent with string theory, which does not admit a time-space noncommutative quantum field theory as its low-energy limit, with the exception of light-like noncommutativity.

Les élections municipales de 1919 : un tournant dans la vie politique du Grand Paris

Year: 2019

description: Alors qu’un raz-de-marée conservateur se produit lors des élections législatives des 16 et 30 novembre 1919, donnant naissance à une Chambre des députés « bleu horizon », les élections municipales qui se déroulent quasi simultanément (les 30 novembre et 7 décembre de cette même année) marquent une rupture dans l’histoire municipale des banlieues. Dix-huit mairies sont conquises dès le premier tour de scrutin par le Parti socialiste SFIO et six autres lui reviennent à l’issue du second tour, parmi lesquelles Marseille, Lille et Strasbourg. Mais la plupart se situent en banlieue parisienne. De surcroît, dans la plupart de ces communes, les citoyens élisent des hommes nouveaux - des anciens combattants encore très jeunes -, prenant conscience de l’usure des personnalités élues avant la guerre. Parmi ces nouvelles figures émergent Henri Sellier à Suresnes, André Morizet à Boulogne-sur-Seine, Justin Oudin à Issy-les-Moulineaux, Eugène Boistard au Pré Saint-Gervais ou Charles Auray à Pantin. Outre cette volonté de renouvellement des équipes, les facteurs de victoire sont divers, mais les priorités données à la propreté et à l’enfance séduisent les électeurs ainsi que le choix de la régie directe. Une nouvelle vision de la ville surgit : il s’agit avant tout de combler le retard d’équipement des communes et de prendre l’étranger pour modèle. Surtout, les administrés prennent conscience de leur identité de banlieusard. Ils imaginent que désormais des liens de solidarité doivent unir Paris et sa banlieue. Elire une nouvelle équipe municipale socialiste permet de dessiner déjà l’espoir d’un Grand Paris.

description: In this paper we will look at the distribution with which passwords are chosen. Zipf's Law is commonly observed in lists of chosen words. Using password lists from four different on-line sources, we will investigate if Zipf's law is a good candidate for describing the frequency with which passwords are chosen. We look at a number of standard statistics, used to measure the security of password distributions, and see if modelling the data using Zipf's Law produces good estimates of these statistics. We then look at the the similarity of the password distributions from each of our sources, using guessing as a metric. This shows that these distributions provide effective tools for cracking passwords. Finally, we will show how to shape the distribution of passwords in use, by occasionally asking users to choose a different password.

description: In an earlier paper “A change from leadership (vertical power-structure) to leadingship (horizontal power-structure) at work: The theory and practice” (2006), I introduced an evolution in the conceptualization of the term “leading”. The main purpose with this evolutionary exercise was to form a new word that could better describe what “selfleadership” could be about with the aim of preventing preconceptions and misconceptions. The conception of the word “leadership” is ingrained with a lot of associations, assumptions, perceptions and beliefs. I needed a term that precisely and specifically could develop a new understanding and conception of the “function of leading as a personalized and internalized process” in contrast to the conventional conception of leading connected to “the person above in the lead of someone below to be led”. On this background I formed the term “leadingship” and developed a specific methodology to illustrate the alternative options in designing and implementing visions, values and actions in organizational life accordingly. You will find the description of the terminology of “leadingship” later in this article.

description: This article confronts the virtual university movement by analyzing its promotion in Washington state, particularly during 1998. I critically evaluate key speeches and policy proposals made by Locke and his advisors and analyze planning and promotional documents of the Western Governors University and the 2020 Commission.  I also consult PricewaterhouseCooper’s Reinventing the University (1998). Analysis of these texts shows that the virtual university serves as a discursive toolbox that helps rationalize and obfuscate strategies to reorganize higher education.  In so doing, the e-cademy distracts us from the less dramatic, less visible ways in which policymakers and administrators intend to finance higher education and deskill and downsize its labor force.

description: Phase synchronization between collective oscillations exhibited by two weakly interacting groups of non-identical phase oscillators with internal and external global sinusoidal coupling of the groups is analyzed theoretically. Coupled amplitude equations describing the collective oscillations of the oscillator groups are obtained by using the Ott-Antonsen ansatz, and then coupled phase equations for the collective oscillations are derived by phase reduction of the amplitude equations. The collective phase coupling function, which determines the dynamics of macroscopic phase differences between the groups, is calculated analytically. It is demonstrated that the groups can exhibit effective anti-phase collective synchronization even if the microscopic external coupling between individual oscillator pairs belonging to different groups is in-phase, and similarly effective in-phase collective synchronization in spite of microscopic anti-phase external coupling between the groups.

description: Après la première guerre mondiale une rupture politique intervient dans la conduite des affaires municipales de Suresnes, elle est en phase avec un changement, une nouvelle vision sociale de la gestion de la banlieue parisienne. Cette évolution est en contrepoint avec le résultat de la législative de novembre de la même année. Cette campagne électorale coïncide à l’émergence de ce que l’on appellera le Socialisme Municipal. Henri Sellier conduira l’action municipale à Suresnes pendant 22 années mais son action et son œuvre persistent dans la mémoire locale. Rien ne peut mieux représenter le souvenir de Sellier dans l’inconscient des Suresnois que la Statue de Saulo, érigée dans le square de la mairie, portant la maxime : « Il consacra vie à l’élévation de la condition humaine ». Henri Sellier a laissé aussi aux Suresnois deux symboles d’architecture qui ont marqué l’urbanisme social : la cité-jardins et ce dont il était le plus fier, l’école de plein-air, dont le globe terrestre marque l’universalité de ses travaux.
Giovani e media: la narrazione di sé nell’epoca digitale

description: Nella ricerca che qui presento ho cercato di verificare, per quanto concesso dal campione ridotto di allievi (una classe di SM a Mendrisio e due a Roveredo), se corrisponde a verità l’assunto di alcuni autori per i quali l’uso dei social network comporta nei “nativi digitali” tutta una serie di conseguenze negative sul piano della formazione e dello sviluppo del Sé e della personalità, tra le quali un’incapacità di narrarsi al di fuori di uno schema narcisistico e autoreferenziale, una tendenza a stabilire relazioni “vuote”, un’incapacità a verbalizzare il proprio vissuto e una forte diminuzione delle capacità critiche e immaginative. A tal fine ho usato tre strumenti: un questionario, attraverso il quale ho cercato di capire essenzialmente gli usi che dei social network fanno i ragazzi, screenshot di alcuni studenti che hanno condiviso materiale da loro pubblicato online, e infine testi a carattere autobiografico prodotti dagli allievi. I risultati ottenuti non forniscono risposte univoche, ma sembrano comunque mostrare come la capacità di narrarsi dei ragazzi non venga affatto limitata da un uso dei social network e che anzi, sotto determinate condizioni, un uso non eccessivo degli stessi favorisca immaginazione e capacità relazionali. Allo sviluppo di queste ultime potrebbe dunque puntare il docente di scuola media attraverso attività e pratiche didattiche che sfruttino le ICT e i social network. Relatore: Luca Botturi.

description: Walking isn’t just walking. A walk, especially if you don’t concentrate on seeing, stimulates the senses. When musician David Sylvian visited the Japanese island of Naoshima in winter 2006 to record sounds for his ambient track “When loud Weather buffeted Naoshima”, he had in mind that the listener should hear the song with an MP3 player during a slow walk around the island. The recorded sounds should mix with the sounds that are created while walking: noise from cars and other pedestrians, wind, birds and the sound of the sea.
The aim of the article is to reflect on the sensory walking experience that accompanies Sylvian’s work. Other sensory sensations, such as the smells of the island and the tactility of the subsoil there, which I collected during a visit in March 2018, should also be taken into account.

Chasing writers’ ghosts through a modern city

description: The article employs the theme of a literary walk (Watson 2009), a practice of encountering places with literary associations on foot. Urban areas present especially suitable settings for such themed walks, as cities can have multiple literary connections, and literary places are located within a short distance from one another. In this paper, I focus on the sites associated with Tove Jansson (1914–2001), a Finnish-Swedish artist and writer, internationally known for her books about the Moomins. The study utilises an autoethnographic approach and draws on observations at the sites with connections to Jansson in Helsinki, organised spatially into a walk around the city. I analyse how urban space can be augmented (Sandvik and Waade 2008) by literary associations through narrativization of the author’s biography and a visitor’s own knowledge and imagination.

Urban Walking – a Subversive Staged Experience?
Creators: name: Nigg, Marie-Louise
Publisher: name: Akademisk kvarter | Academic Quarter
Year: 2019

description: On the one hand, for decades there has been a growing interest in urban walking as an authentic physical, creative or subversive spatial experience. On the other hand, cities as well as different walking practices are more and more staged, are part of mediatized, as well as market-oriented city scenarios or artistic image productions. Thus urban strolling appears increasingly to be a theatre- or film-like experience. The text discusses the ambivalence and complexity of today’s walking practices and re-evaluates their meaning ranging from resistance to consumerism, referring to the historical concept of the flâneur as well as to the current phenomenon of a post-heroic urban stroller. Examples from film, fine arts and literature from recent decades, illustrating paradoxical walking concepts, are used for analysis; a special focus is placed on Bertrand Bonello’s film Nocturama, Albrecht Selge’s novel Wach and Valérie Jouve’s photo series Les Passants and Les Personnages.

description: Lo scopo della mia ricerca è stato quello di indagare come e se le due opere, “Las Meninas” di Velázquez e lo stesso quadro rivisitato da Picasso, potessero influenzare le produzioni grafiche dei bambini; come campione ho considerato il terzo livello di una sezione di Scuola dell’Infanzia e una quinta elementare. Per rispondere al mio interrogativo ho eseguito tre interventi: il primo in cui i bambini hanno dovuto disegnare una principessa, un secondo in cui ho mostrato e discusso i quadri e un terzo in cui ho chiesto di rifare il disegno di una principessa. Mediante la comparazione tra i disegni del primo intervento e quelli del terzo ho potuto osservare come e se ci fosse stata un’influenza dalle opere mostrate sulle produzioni degli allievi. Ho potuto appurare che gli allievi di scuola dell’infanzia hanno introdotto nei loro disegni elementi del quadro di Velázquez, mentre quelli di quinta elementare si sono avvicinati maggiormente a Picasso. I risultati hanno mostrato che il diverso approccio ai dipinti dipende dall’età dei bambini; i dati ottenuti però non confermano a pieno le ipotesi in riferimento alle teorie di Piaget, Gardner e Luquet.

description: This article explores the visual experience of walking in darkness. Based primarily on phenomenological theories and analyses of walking and/or darkness, the topic is analyzed in relation to a guided night tour in a dark resort in Denmark. The tour is described as an experiential oscillation between moments of ‘antagonistic darkness’, blocking the human vision, and ‘symbiotic darkness’, opening up alternative visual perceptions of the world. These ways of looking are labeled as, respectively, distorted, transformative and sublime. The experiental fluctuation of the tour is ascribed to the contextual and temporal aspects of walking and standing as well as the specific staging of the walking tour as event.

Impact of one-way carsharing on car ownership and public transit : an empirical analysis from Metro Vancouver

description: While first conceived as cooperative station-based car ownership in the 1950s, smartphones have led to a rapid growth of free-floating carsharing in urban areas in the past 15 years. Their low-barrier to entry has had strong proponents and opponents. Proponents assert that it reduces car ownership and enhances the reach of public transit into less well-served neighbourhoods. Opponents worry that carsharing leads to more congestion and competes with public transit. Countless user surveys have explored the validity of these questions, indicating positive spillovers. In contrast to these studies, this thesis uses empirical data on vehicle booking and use from one-way carsharing providers in Vancouver to assess their impacts. This analysis reveals: • Actual shared vehicles are used 5-6 times per day on average. Past surveys indicate that each free-floating carsharing vehicle leads to 2-13 fewer vehicles owned. This study estimates 4.3 and shows that the majority of the users who change their vehicle ownership plans use carsharing with low frequency (1-4 trips per month). This could suggest that the major benefit from car-shedding due to free-floating carsharing is in relieving parking pressure and less so of traffic congestion. • Empirical data show that the most popular neighbourhoods for carsharing in which 75% of carsharing trips occur, host 59% of the population, retaining 37% of the carsharing service area and 63% of direct rapid transit routes. In other words, this group of neighbourhoods have 2.5 times higher population density than the rest of the neighbourhoods. The ratio of direct rapid transit routes available between these neighbourhoods to the rest of the direct rapid transit routes is 1.7, whereas the number of carsharing trips inside this group of neighbourhoods is 3 times higher than the rest of carsharing trips recorded. Thus, carsharing is primarily competing with public transit in denser neighbourhoods rather than complementing it in less dense areas. Finally, this study identified an understudied user misbehaviour. Roughly 30% of all vehicle reservations lapse; each time rendering these vehicles inaccessible to other users for 30 minutes. This leads to over-investment in the shared vehicle fleet and higher pressure on parking in popular neighbourhoods.

description: This article investigates the ways in which a young child learns to sense and move through a transient environment while learning to walk on skis. Audiovisual recordings were made of a parent instructing a child on how to walk on snow and to start moving on skis. Focusing on social interaction, the article examines how snow is sensed and made salient in spatio-interactional practices of walking on snow for the purposes of learning to ski. Talk about the weather and snow surface conditions while walking over the snow develops the child’s feeling for snow as a surface for personal mobility.

Mirrored journeys

description: Travelling on foot still constitutes, in the midst of the twenty-first century, a fundamental moment in a great number of current migrants’ journeys, both across Africa and Central America, fleeing from miserable living conditions and violence. This article compares an in-depth narrative approach to the issue with the mainstream coverage of the Central American caravan by the end of 2018, in order to reflect on the invisibility and vulnerability of walking migrants. While the caravan empowered and brought migrants the opportunity to struggle for a safe journey, this hypervisibility has not been translated into a better-contextualised account in mainstream media. In contrast, the non-fiction books and series of reportages published by Óscar Martínez, and by Xavier Aldekoa with co-author Ruido Photo, focus on the effects of the European Union’s and the United States’ externalisation of borders and securitisation policies, which force migrants to walk in order to avoid border surveillance and criminal organizations’ attacks, and, in the open desert, to face deportation.

description: Experiences are seminal for human well-being. But experiencing is a complex phenomenon challenging standard methods of data collection. Firstly, experiencing is an inner process, which cannot be observed neither precisely nor in its totality from an external position. Observation studies therefore do not sufficiently account for this inner process. Secondly, experiences are dual: on the one hand, experiencing is bound to a stream of moments of sensing and perceptions, on the other hand experience is a recollection of such experiencing. Memory is a retrospective, but fallible representation of these moments. Interviews draw on and activate memory, but they fail to grasp the actual moments of experiencing. This paper presents the walk-along method as a way to deal with the complexity of experiencing. This method combines aspects of participatory observation and of interviewing as the researcher moves through space with the informants while they are moved by their surroundings.

description: We present an evaluation of the performance of an automated classification of the Hipparcos periodic variable stars into 26 types. The sub-sample with the most reliable variability types available in the literature is used to train supervised algorithms to characterize the type dependencies on a number of attributes. The most useful attributes evaluated with the random forest methodology include, in decreasing order of importance, the period, the amplitude, the V-I colour index, the absolute magnitude, the residual around the folded light-curve model, the magnitude distribution skewness and the amplitude of the second harmonic of the Fourier series model relative to that of the fundamental frequency. Random forests and a multi-stage scheme involving Bayesian network and Gaussian mixture methods lead to statistically equivalent results. In standard 10-fold cross-validation experiments, the rate of correct classification is between 90 and 100%, depending on the variability type. The main mis-classification cases, up to a rate of about 10%, arise due to confusion between SPB and ACV blue variables and between eclipsing binaries, ellipsoidal variables and other variability types. Our training set and the predicted types for the other Hipparcos periodic stars are available online.

La relazione tra il benessere e le competenze socio-emotive degli adolescenti nel primo biennio della Scuola media

Year: 2012

description: Il presente lavoro di diploma analizza quale relazione esiste tra lo sviluppo di competenze socio-emotive e lo stato di salute e di benessere degli allievi appartenenti al primo biennio di scuola media nel Canton Ticino. I dati sono stati raccolti tramite la distribuzione di un questionario ispirato a quello utilizzato nel dipartimento canadese della British Columbia. All’interno del tema generale, viene indagato il rapporto tra docente e allievo, cercando di stabilire se i preadolescenti hanno relazioni positive con gli adulti della loro scuola. A lato di una riflessione teorica su quanto presentato dalla bibliografia critica sull’argomento, l’analisi dei dati dimostra che molti ragazzi trovano degli adulti di riferimento all’interno della scuola che credono in loro e li ascoltano, tuttavia rimane una fascia di allievi che indica di non stabilire un rapporto positivo con queste figure. L’indagine mostra che il docente riveste un ruolo importante per assicurare motivazione, apprendimento e sostegno emotivo agli allievi; si rende dunque evidente l’importanza di instaurare una relazione positiva, fondata sulla fiducia e sul rispetto. I dati raccolti e le interpretazioni proposte possono essere di interesse per tutte le persone sensibili al miglioramento del benessere di bambini e ragazzi, in particolare coloro che sono investiti di un mandato educativo, penso in particolare a genitori, educatori, docenti e ai servizi di aiuto alle famiglie.

La coopérative ouvrière est finalement, pour la nouvelle génération de militants entrés en politique, le premier moment de confrontation avec le réel. La coopérative n'est pas uniquement un engagement militant, c'est incontestablement aussi une conversion politique à la gestion et au compromis négocié avec des acteurs qui ne sont uniquement des semblabes, des militants ; ils sont aussi des adversaires politiques avec lesquels ils doivent composer. Ce qui frappe également c'est que finalement cette nouvelle génération d’hommes politiques, issus de mouvements politiques et syndicaux d’essence révolutionnaire,...
Investigating how demyelination is reflected using advanced magnetic resonance imaging in Susac syndrome and multiple sclerosis
Creators: name: Johnson, Poljanka
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Conventional magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a useful qualitative clinical tool for diagnosing and monitoring neurodegenerative diseases. However, it is not capable of measuring diffuse and microstructural changes in normal-appearing white matter (NAWM). Advanced MRI can quantitatively describe the microenvironment in NAWM. Myelin water imaging (MWI) is a technique that uses multi-component T2 relaxation to quantify the amount of myelin present within a region of interest. The resulting measurement is termed the myelin water fraction (MWF) and has been shown to correlate with histological myelin measurements. The standard deviation of the MWF is thought to represent the heterogeneity of myelin within a region of interest. By dividing the standard deviation of the MWF by the mean MWF, the coefficient of variation is calculated. Known as the myelin heterogeneity index (MHI), this is thought to be the most sensitive measure derived from MWI since it captures both myelin damage and variability. Diffusion basis spectrum imaging (DBSI) is another quantitative MRI technique that detects the diffusion of water. DBSI separates the isotropic and anisotropic diffusion components within each voxel and uses the degree and direction of water molecule movements to describe the microstructure. Importantly to this study, the measure radial diffusivity is thought to negatively correlate with myelin content. I apply MWI and DBSI to Susac syndrome (SuS), a rare demyelinating disease often mistaken for the more common demyelinating disease multiple sclerosis (MS), and find that both advanced MRI techniques describe diffuse myelin damage seen in SuS, but not in MS or healthy controls. This suggests a newly identified pathology of SuS. I next focused on characterizing the 3 aforementioned MWI metrics (mean, standard deviation or MHI) in MS. The measures differentiated MS from healthy controls and correlated with disability due to MS. Different stages of the disease were better characterized by different metrics, depending on the amount, uniformity, and extent of myelin damage. Lastly, MWI discerned longitudinal changes in MS over 2 years. This thesis shows that advanced MRI techniques are able to measure microstructural damage not detectable by clinical MRI and furthers the understanding of pathologies of two demyelinating diseases.
