description: We report results from the Wyoming Survey for H-alpha (WySH), a comprehensive four-square degree survey to probe the evolution of star-forming galaxies over the latter half of the age of the Universe. We have supplemented the H-alpha data from WySH with infrared data from the Spitzer Wide-area Infrared Extragalactic (SWIRE) Survey and ultraviolet data from the Galaxy Evolution Explorer (GALEX) Deep Imaging Survey. This dataset provides a multi-wavelength look at the evolution of the attenuation by dust, and here we compare a traditional measure of dust attenuation (L(TIR)/L(FUV)) to a diagnostic based on a recently-developed robust star formation rate (SFR) indicator, [H-alpha_obs+24-micron]/H-alpha_obs. With such data over multiple epochs, the evolution in the attenuation by dust with redshift can be assessed. We present results from the ELAIS-N1 and Lockman Hole regions at z~0.16, 0.24, 0.32 and 0.40. While the ensemble averages of both diagnostics are relatively constant from epoch to epoch, each epoch individually exhibits a larger attenuation by dust for higher star formation rates. Hence, an epoch to epoch comparison at a fixed star formation rate suggests a mild decrease in dust attenuation with redshift.

description: We present evidence for diffractive exclusive dijet production with an invariant dijet mass greater than 100 GeV in data collected with the D0 experiment at the Fermilab Tevatron Collider. A discriminant based on calorimeter information is used to measure a significant number of events with little energy (typically less than 10 GeV) outside the dijet system, consistent with the diffractive exclusive dijet production topology. The probability for these events to be explained by other dijet production processes is $2 \times 10^{-5}$, corresponding to a 4.1 standard deviation significance.

Affine Invariant, Model-Based Object Recognition Using Robust Metrics and Bayesian Statistics
Creators: name: Zografos, Vasileios

Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Computer Vision and Pattern Recognition (cs.CV)

description: We revisit the problem of model-based object recognition for intensity images and attempt to address some of the shortcomings of existing Bayesian methods, such as unsuitable priors and the treatment of residuals with a non-robust error norm. We do so by using a refor- mulation of the Huber metric and carefully chosen prior distributions. Our proposed method is invariant to 2-dimensional affine transforma- tions and, because it is relatively easy to train and use, it is suited for general object matching problems.
The structure and enactment of agency in the context of rural nursing practice
Creators: name: Buckley, Barbara Jean
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: There is a growing awareness of inequities in rural healthcare in Canada and internationally. Rural nurses are embedded within complex healthcare structures, yet little attention has been paid to their experiences. These complex structures can function to both constrain and enable nurses to provide equitable, safe, and quality healthcare services to rural populations. This ethnographic study was conducted with rural nurses to explore the relationship between healthcare structures and rural nurses’ enactment of their agency. Informed by Structuration Theory (Giddens, 1984), Sewell’s (1992) notion of reciprocity, and a relational ethics lens, this research illuminates the relationship between the structures and rural nurses’ enactment of their agency in providing healthcare to rural based populations. Carspecken’s Critical Qualitative Research method (1996) was used to guide data collection during 528 hours of fieldwork and participant observations with primary nurse and allied healthcare provider participants (n=14). Additional data collected included: in-depth interviews (n=18); participant demographics; documents; and cultural commodities. Findings showed that the rural structure-nurse agent relationship was strained by urban-based policy-making. In particular, the rural practice context lacked sufficient physical and human resources to enact urban-policy directives (e.g. being unable to provide consistent primary and palliative care services). Nursing’s lack of active participation in policy decision-making has further impacted lack of policy directives toward fostering development of rural practice expertise. Key themes of: “we’re it”; “unseen complexity”; “pulling the nurse’s card”; “how many hands do you see?” and “beg forgiveness Monday morning” exemplified the disjuncture between rural and urban healthcare policy and practice. Inequities in access to healthcare services ultimately expanded rural nurses’ perceived moral obligations to include providing ad hoc care to the community outside of the formal system. Findings underscore that it is vital that rural nurses have an active voice in rural healthcare policy and decision-making in order to strengthen reciprocal relations and to provide equitable, safe, and ethical healthcare services for rural communities. Recommendations also include support for a nursing role in policy-making, increasing education opportunities, and expanding the scope of rural nursing practice to meet the demands of the rural practice context.
Infinite planar string: cusps, braids and soliton exitations

description: We investigate infinite strings in $(2+1)D$ space-time, which may be considered as excitations of straight lines on the spatial plane. We also propose the hamiltonian description of such objects that differs from the standard hamiltonian description of the string. The hamiltonian variables are separated into two independent groups: the "internal" and "external" variables. The first ones are invariant under space-time transformations and are connected with the second form of the world-sheet. The "external" variables define the embedding of the world-sheet into space-time. The constructed phase space is nontrivial because the finite number of constraints entangles the variables from these groups. First group of the variables constitute the coefficients for the pair of first-order spectral problems; the solution of these problems is necessary for the reconstruction of the string world-sheet. We consider the excitations, which correspond to "N- soliton" solution of the spectral problem, and demonstrate that the reconstructed string has cuspidal points. World lines of such points form braids of various topologies.

K Rare Decays with NA62
Creators: name: Marinova, Evelina
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The long-term goal of NA62 is to measure the ultra rare K+/- -> pi+/- nu anti-nu decay with a sensitivity of 10^-12 per event. This is done by using the decay - in - flight technique which allows a signal acceptance of ~10% . The aim is to collect about 100 signal events in two years of data taking with a background to signal ratio smaller than 10%. The principle of the experimental measurement and the layout of the detector are presented. During 2007/2008 a dedicated run devoted to NA62 prototype tests and study of K_e2 decays was taken. The first phase of the NA62 experiment is aiming at a high precision test of the lepton universality by measuring the helicity suppressed ratio R_K. The preliminary result based on 40% of the 2007 NA62 data sample, R_K = K_e2/K_mu2 = (2.500 +/- 0.016) x 10^-5, which is the first result with a precision better than 1%, is consistent with the Standard Model. Aiming at charge asymmetry measurements, the NA48/2 experiment collected an unprecedented amount of charged K_(3 pi) events. The large samples allowed a precision measurement of rare charged kaon decays. New measurements of the K+/-_(pi l l) decays based on the full NA48/2 data sample collected during 2003/2004 are reported in this paper. Samples of about 7200 reconstructed K+/- -> pi+/- e+ e- events, and more than 3000 K+/- -> pi+/- mu+ mu- events, with a few percent background contamination, have been collected. A precise measurement of the branching fractions and the form factors of the rare decays K+/-_(pi l l)$ were performed. Measurements of the CP-violating and the forward-backward asymmetries are reported.

description: Warm absorption is a common phenomenon in Seyfert 1s and quasars, but rare in Seyfert 2s. In this paper, we report the detection of warm absorbers with high energy resolution in the Seyfert 2 galaxy IRAS 18325-5926 for the first time with Chandra HETGS spectra. An intrinsic absorbing line system with an outflow velocity ~400 km/s was found, which is contributed by two warm absorbers with FWHM of 570 km/s and 1360 km/s, respectively. The two absorbers were adjacent, and doing a transverse motion across our line of sight. We constrained the distance of the absorbers to a small value, suggesting that the absorbers may originate from the highly ionized accretion disk wind. The perspective of this type 2 Seyfert provides the best situation to investigate the vertical part of the funnel-like outflows. Another weak absorbing line system with zero redshift was also detected, which could be due to Galactic absorption with very high temperature, or an intrinsic outflow with very high velocity ~6000 km/s.

A washback investigation of the national matriculation English test in China from the perspective of test-takers' attitudes and behaviors

subject: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: In the field of Language Testing, 'washback' generally refers to the influences of language tests on teaching and learning. The increasingly significant role that language tests play in the modern world makes the washback effects a high-interest phenomenon nowadays. However, despite such popularity, there were still many washback contexts remaining unexplored and inadequate attention on how candidates-related factors affect the washback effects. Motived by these gaps, this study aims to conduct a washback investigation of the National Matriculation English Test in China from the perspectives of test-takers' attitudes and behaviors in Jiangxi province. This test is one of the most important language tests in China, while only a few studies have done in revealing the related washback effects on English education. Survey questionnaires were collected from 285 high-school students who were also the candidates preparing for the test. The results showed positive presence of the negative washback effects on students' attitudes toward the test, test preparation and English learning in general, but, only a moderate degree of washback intensity was found, which was inconsistent with the high-stakes test factor. Thus, this study suggests a further reconsideration on the influences of 'test stakes' factor on the extent of washback effects.
A vertical and horizontal 3-axis hand-held confocal scanner for skin imaging applications
Creators: name: Chen, Keqin
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: The goal of this project is to develop a hand-held size, confocal optical scanner for clinical skin imaging. Both vertical and horizontal image scanning have been successfully achieved. Vertical scanning is performed by a voice coil actuator in the Z axial direction and a resonant galvanometer scanner in the X lateral direction. Horizontal scanning is conducted with the same resonant galvanometer scanner and a regular galvo mirror in X and Y lateral directions. The vertical imaging plane is perpendicular to the sample surface, while the horizontal imaging plane is parallel to the sample surface. The developed device is capable of providing image resolutions of 0.9-1.1μm and 5-8μm in the lateral and axial directions, respectively. The operational scanning speed is adjustable from 8 to 20 frames per second. Imaging results in both vertical and horizontal directions are presented with biological samples, including onion and mouse skin. By using this hand-held scanner, physicians may be able to reduce the number of unnecessary and repetitive biopsies, which will lower the cost to the health care system.

description: Blockchain and smart contracts are rising technologies in modern computer science. This enables a new type of application where financial products and services can be implemented as executable code. Accounting is an activity with still a lot of manual work which is necessary to calculate profit and further tax values. Bills are forwarded to the accountant who fed complex accounting software with the bill data and report back the payable tax amount. This leads us to the research question of this thesis, creating a decentralized application to automate tax systems like in Austria to demonstrate the possibilities of such systems. The system automates the manual processes of tax accounting and the transaction of the tax amount to the tax office. The thesis starts with theoretical research about blockchain systems and economic models, followed by the creation of a simple model of economic interactions necessary for tax calculations. Subsequently, the smart contract is implemented with the Solidity smart contract programming language on the Ethereum blockchain. Furthermore, this contracted is implemented on a web-based decentralized app to grant users access to the system. The smart contract is published on Etherscan and the decentralized app is accessible via MetaMask on kovan network. Metamask is a browser extension to connect an Ethereum wallet to a website based app and interact with smart contract functions. The thesis demonstrates how tax law can be implemented within a smart contract programming language. It includes implementations of income tax, VAT, social insurance, insurance tax, corporate tax, wage tax and local tax according to Austrian tax law.

subject: Data processing

description: This book is a community resource on ocean optics. The development of the general theory requires many different concepts: radiometric variables, inherent optical properties (IOPs), apparent optical properties (AOPs), and the mathematical relations connecting them. The radiometric variables are various measures of the light itself (how much light energy is present, what direction it is traveling, what wavelengths are present). The IOPs describe the optical properties of the medium through which the light propagates. In particular, IOPs describe how light is absorbed (light energy is converted to other forms, such as heat or the energy in a chemical bond) and scattered (how it changes direction and, perhaps, wavelength) when it interacts with the medium. The equations of radiative transfer theory connect the various pieces and enable the prediction of light propagation through a medium given the properties of the medium and the light incident onto the medium. The various chapters of the book discuss applications of the basic concepts to problems such as remote sensing of the oceans from satellites or the prediction of underwater visibility. The 16 chapters develop the standard material of optical oceanography and remote sensing of the oceans at visible wavelengths: radiometry, inherent and apparent optical properties, absorption, elastic and inelastic scattering, the optical properties of sea water constituents and of surfaces, radiative transfer and electromagnetic theory, remote sensing and the associated atmospheric correction, and visibility. The 7 appendices contain more advanced and more mathematical topics .

How general is the global density slope-anisotropy inequality?

description: Following the seminal result of An & Evans, known as the central density slope-anisotropy theorem, successive investigations unexpectedly revealed that the density slope-anisotropy inequality holds not only at the center, but at all radii in a very large class of spherical systems whenever the phase-space distribution function is positive. In this paper we derive a criterion that holds for all spherical systems in which the augmented density is a separable function of radius and potential: this new finding allows to unify all the previous results in a very elegant way, and opens the way for more general investigations. As a first application, we prove that the global density slope-anisotropy inequality is also satisfied by all the explored additional families of multi-component stellar systems. The present results, and the absence of known counter-examples, lead us to conjecture that the global density slope-anisotropy inequality could actually be a universal property of spherical systems with positive distribution function.

description: The zero-energy universal properties of scattering between a particle and a dimer that involves an identical particle are investigated for arbitrary scattering angular momenta. For this purpose, we derive an integral equation that generalises the Skorniakov - Ter-Martirosian equation to the case of non-zero angular momentum. As the mass ratio between the particles is varied, we find various scattering resonances that can be attributed to the appearance of universal trimers and Efimov trimers at the collisional threshold.

description: We study the energy gap opening in the electronic spectrum of graphene bilayers caused by asym- metric doping. Both substitutional impurities (boron acceptors and nitrogen donors) and adsorbed potassium donors are considered. The gap evolution with dopant concentration is compared to the situation in which the asymmetry between the layers is induced by an external electric field. The effects of adsorbed potassium are similar to that of an electric field, but substitutional impurities behave quite differently, showing smaller band gaps and a large sensitivity to disorder and sublattice occupation.

description: Let consider the Pauli group $\mathcal{P}_q=$ with unitary quantum generators $X$ (shift) and $Z$ (clock) acting on the vectors of the $q$-dimensional Hilbert space via $X|s> =|s+1>$ and $Z|s> =ω^s |s>$, with $ω=\exp(2iπ/q)$. It has been found that the number of maximal mutually commuting sets within $\mathcal{P}_q$ is controlled by the Dedekind psi function $ψ(q)=q \prod_{p|q}(1+\frac{1}{p})$ (with $p$ a prime) \cite{Planat2011} and that there exists a specific inequality $\frac{ψ(q)}{q}>e^γ\log \log q$, involving the Euler constant $γ\sim 0.577$, that is only satisfied at specific low dimensions $q \in \mathcal {A}=\{2,3,4,5,6,8,10,12,18,30\}$. The set $\mathcal{A}$ is closely related to the set $\mathcal{A} \cup \{1,24\}$ of integers that are totally Goldbach, i.e. that consist of all primes $p2$) is equivalent to Riemann hypothesis. Introducing the Hardy-Littlewood function $R(q)=2 C_2 \prod_{p|n}\frac{p-1}{p-2}$ (with $C_2 \sim 0.660$ the twin prime constant), that is used for estimating the number $g(q) \sim R(q) \frac{q}{\ln^2 q}$ of Goldbach pairs, one shows that the new inequality $\frac{R(N_r)}{\log \log N_r} \gtrapprox e^γ$ is also equivalent to Riemann hypothesis. In this paper, these number theoretical properties are discusssed in the context of the qudit commutation structure.

description: Despite numerous attempts, the understanding of the thermal denaturation of DNA is still a challenge due to the lack of structural data at the transition since standard experimental approaches to DNA melting are made in solution and do not provide spatial information. We report a measurement using neutron scattering from oriented DNA fibres to determine the size of the regions that stay in the double-helix conformation as the melting temperature is approached from below. A Bragg peak from the B-form of DNA has been observed as a function of temperature and its width and integrated intensity have bean measured. These results, complemented by a differential calorimetry study of the melting of B DNA fibres as well as electrophoresis and optical observation data, are analysed in terms of a one-dimensional mesoscopic model of DNA.
Clinical nursing instructors' experiences teaching students deemed at risk of failure
Creators: name: MacLeod, Stefanie
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: The experience of the clinical nursing instructor (CNI) in teaching nursing students deemed at risk of failure has not been well explored in nursing literature. It may be difficult for the CNI to support as well as evaluate a student when that student’s performance is judged to be unsatisfactory or unsuccessful. The purpose of this study was to explore CNIs’ experiences in teaching undergraduate nursing students deemed at risk of failure, to discover how CNIs identify potentially unsuccessful students and to describe what supports and resources CNIs utilize to help them manage such students. A pilot study using a qualitative phenomenological approach was used to interview CNIs who had at least one experience teaching an undergraduate nursing student deemed at risk of failure at the University of British Columbia (UBC) and the British Columbia Institute of Technology (BCIT) schools of nursing. The study found that CNIs identified students at risk of failure using “red flags” that included a range of actions, behaviours, and attitudes. These red flags included deficits in the demonstrated thinking, knowledge, and skills; deficits in the social and cultural aspects of nursing practice; disorganization and tardiness; and lack of integrity. CNIs felt that early and clear communication of their concerns with faculty and students deemed at risk of failure was beneficial for both the student and CNI. CNIs made decisions to fail students by considering patient safety and objective evidence while at the same time supporting and nurturing these students by providing opportunities for success.

description: Dynamical friction leads to an orbital decay of massive objects like young compact star clusters or Massive Black Holes in central regions of galaxies. The dynamical friction force can be well approximated by Chandrasekhar's standard formula, but recent investigations show, that corrections to the Coulomb logarithm are necessary. With a large set of N-body simulations we show that the improved formula for the Coulomb logarithm fits the orbital decay very well for circular and eccentric orbits. The local scale-length of the background density distribution serves as the maximum impact parameter for a wide range of power-law indices of -1 ... -5. For each type of code the numerical resolution must be compared to the effective minimum impact parameter in order to determine the Coulomb logarithm. We also quantify the correction factors by using self-consistent velocity distribution functions instead of the standard Maxwellian often used. These factors enter directly the decay timescale and cover a range of 0.5 ... 3 for typical orbits. The new Coulomb logarithm combined with self-consistent velocity distribution functions in the Chandrasekhar formula provides a significant improvement of orbital decay times with correction up to one order of magnitude compared to the standard case. We suggest the general use of the improved formula in parameter studies as well as in special applications.

The targum (1875:Nov.)
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: Targum Association
Year: 1875

description: Some University historians indicate that the Targum was first published as an annual in 1867, but of this we have no extant evidence. In January 1869, the Targum as we now know it, made its appearance as a monthly paper that concerned itself with student “literary contributions” and college news as well as serving as a vehicle for bringing news to alumni and the general public. The newspaper, which originally was for sale, varied in frequency over the years as did its title (The Targum, Rutgers Targum, Rutgers Daily Targum, and Daily Targum). The newspaper has continuously been published since 1869 with the exception of 19 months during the second world war, between February 1944 and October 1945. The Targum was published by the students of Rutgers College, and later Rutgers University—New Brunswick represented through the years as the Targum Association, Rutgers Targum Association, and Rutgers College Targum. As a student organization, the Targum operated under the oversight of the dean of students and student government but in October 1980, the Targum became an independent college paper.
Which Policy Issues Matter in Canadian Municipalities? A Survey of Municipal Politicians

description: Which policy issues matter to local politicians? Canadian researchers increasingly argue that urban policymaking today is often as much about \wicked problems" of climate change and social policy as it is about snow clearing and potholes (Bradford 2002, Bradford 2005, Hughes, Chu, and Mason 2018). But do municipal politicians agree { do they think that traditional municipal issues have been overlaid with new policy concerns? And how do these opinions about municipal issues vary across Canadian cities? Earlier this year, in a survey of Canadian mayors and councillors from municipalities across Canada, we sought to answer these questions. Across eighteen areas of public policy, more than 1,000 mayors and councillors told us which issues they felt were important in their communities.1 Their answers provide us with a new and systematic look at the policy issues that Canadian municipal leaders feel are important across municipalities of widely varying sizes, regions, and provinces.

description: The generalized multispin Jahn-Teller model on a finite lattice or formally equivalent Dicke model extended to two long-wavelength coherent bosons of different frequencies is shown to exhibit a crossover between the polaron-modified "quasi-normal" and the squeezed "radiation" domains. We investigate effects of two kinds of interfering fluctuations on the phase crossover and on statistical characteristics of boson complex spectra: (i) Fluctuations in the electron subsystem- finite-size quantum fluctuations- are responsible for the dephasing of the coherence in the radiation domain and for the moderate occupation of the excited states in the normal domain. In the quasiclassical limit, radiation phase implies existence of a coherent acoustic super-radiant phase. (ii) Level-spacing fluctuations in excited boson level subsystem with strong level repulsions. Related probability distributions are shown to be non-universally spread between the limiting universal Wigner-Dyson and Poisson distributions. We proved that the difference in boson frequencies is responsible for reaching the most stochastic limit of the Wigner-Dyson distribution. Instanton lattice as a sequence of tunneling events in the most chaotic radiation domain exhibits maximal number of level-avoidings (repulsions). The non-universality of the distributions is caused by boson correlations which compete the level repulsions.

description: Conflicting coupling of unpaired nucleons in the odd-odd nuclei is discussed. A very simple explanation is suggested for the damping of the energy spacing of the lowest levels in the rotational bands in the odd-odd nuclei in the case of a "conflicting" coupling of the odd proton and neutron comparative to those of the bands based on the state of the strongly-coupled particle in the neighbouring odd nuclei entering the "conflicting" configuration.
