description: We report on the design, construction and operation of a low background x-ray detection line composed of a shielded Micromegas (micromesh gaseous structure) detector of the microbulk technique. The detector is made from radiopure materials and is placed at the focal point of a $\sim$~5 cm diameter, 1.3 m focal-length, cone-approximation Wolter I x-ray telescope (XRT) comprised of thermally-formed (or "slumped") glass substrates deposited with multilayer coatings. The system has been conceived as a technological pathfinder for the future International Axion Observatory (IAXO), as it combines two of the techniques (optic and detector) proposed in the conceptual design of the project. It is innovative for two reasons: it is the first time an x-ray optic has been designed and fabricated specifically for axion research, and the first time a Micromegas detector has been operated with an x-ray optic. The line has been installed at one end of the CERN Axion Solar Telescope (CAST) magnet and is currently looking for solar axions. The combination of the XRT and Micromegas detector provides the best signal-to-noise ratio obtained so far by any detection system of the CAST experiment with a background rate of 5.4$\times$10$^{-3}\;$counts per hour in the energy region-of-interest and signal spot area.

description: How a galaxy regulates its SNe energy into different interstellar/circumgalactic medium components strongly affects galaxy evolution. Based on the JVLA D-configuration C- (6 GHz) and L-band (1.6 GHz) continuum observations, we perform statistical analysis comparing multi-wavelength properties of the CHANG-ES galaxies. The high-quality JVLA data and edge-on orientation enable us for the first time to include the halo into the energy budget for a complete radio-flux-limited sample. We find tight correlations of $L_{\rm radio}$ with the mid-IR-based SFR. The normalization of our $I_{\rm 1.6GHz}/{\rm W~Hz^{-1}}-{\rm SFR}$ relation is $\sim$2-3 times of those obtained for face-on galaxies, probably a result of enhanced IR extinction at high inclination. We also find tight correlations between $L_{\rm radio}$ and the SNe energy injection rate $\dot{E}_{\rm SN(Ia+CC)}$, indicating the energy loss via synchrotron radio continuum accounts for $\sim0.1\%$ of $\dot{E}_{\rm SN}$, comparable to the energy contained in CR electrons. The integrated C-to-L-band spectral index is $α\sim0.5-1.1$ for non-AGN galaxies, indicating a dominance by the diffuse synchrotron component. The low-scatter $L_{\rm radio}-{\rm SFR}$/$L_{\rm radio}-\dot{E}_{\rm SN (Ia+CC)}$ relationships have super-linear logarithmic slopes at $\sim2~σ$ in L-band ($1.132\pm0.067$/$1.175\pm0.102$) while consistent with linear in C-band ($1.057\pm0.075$/$1.100\pm0.123$). The super-linearity could be naturally reproduced with non-calorimeter models for galaxy disks. Using Chandra halo X-ray measurements, we find sub-linear $L_{\rm X}-L_{\rm radio}$ relations. These results indicate that the observed radio halo of a starburst galaxy is close to electron calorimeter, and a galaxy with higher SFR tends to distribute an increased fraction of SNe energy into radio emission (than X-ray).

description: Asteroseismology allows us to probe the physical conditions inside the core of red giant stars. This relies on the properties of the global oscillations with a mixed character that are highly sensitive to the physical properties of the core. However, overlapping rotational splittings and mixed-mode spacings result in complex structures in the mixed-mode pattern, which severely complicates its identification and the measurement of the asymptotic period spacing. This work aims at disentangling the rotational splittings from the mixed-mode spacings, in order to open the way to a fully automated analysis of large data sets. An analytical development of the mixed-mode asymptotic expansion is used to derive the period spacing between two consecutive mixed modes. The échelle diagrams constructed with the appropriately stretched periods are used to exhibit the structure of the gravity modes and of the rotational splittings. We propose a new view on the mixed-mode oscillation pattern based on corrected periods, called stretched periods, that mimic the evenly spaced gravity-mode pattern. This provides a direct understanding of all oscillation components, even in the case of rapid rotation. The measurement of the asymptotic period spacing and the signature of the structural glitches on mixed modes are then made easy. This work opens the possibility to derive all seismic global parameters in an automated way, including the identification of the different rotational multiplets and the measurement of the rotational splitting, even when this splitting is significantly larger than the period spacing. Revealing buoyancy glitches provides a detailed view on the radiative core.

Do You Read Me? Investigating Support Elicitation Strategies and Relationship-Schematic Processing Among Couples Facing Breast Cancer
Creators: name: Kelly, Jasmine
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2009

description: Women in distress turn to their partners for support, regardless of relationship satisfaction. Despite this, there has been little research on couples' elicitation of social support. As part of a larger treatment outcome study, 50 couples facing early stage breast cancer completed a 7-minute support exchange, coded for elicitation styles and relational processing to determine: 1) effects of men's ability to attend to cues for support on women's satisfaction with support, and 2) effects of elicitation strategies women employed on support satisfaction. This investigation involved creation of the Couple Elicitation Coding System, CSECS, and the adaptation of the Relationship Schematic Processing (RSP) coding system. Women's satisfaction with support from men was associated with higher quality RSP ratings for men. Women primarily used indirect elicitation and this was associated with higher support satisfaction.

description: Hadron spectra measured in high-energy collisions present distributions which can be derived from the non-extensive statistical and thermodynamical phenomena. Based on earlier theoretical developments, it seems, the methods are very applicable for jets hadronization processes in electron-positron, proton-proton, and even in heavy-ion collisions. Here, we present what can was learnt from the recent theoretical and phenomenological developments: transverse momentum spectra and azimuthal anisotropy ($v_2$) of charge averaged pions, kaons and protons stemming from central Pb+Pb collisions at $\sqrt s$ = 2.76 ATeV are described \textit{analytically} in a `soft + hard' model. In this model, we propose that hadron yields produced in heavy-ion collisions are simply the sum of yields stemming from jets (hard yields) in addition to the yields originating from the Quark-Gluon Plasma (soft yields). The hadron spectra in both types of yields are approximated by the Tsallis--Pareto like distribution.

description: We investigate the continuous quantum measurement of a superconducting qubit undergoing fluorescence. The fluorescence of the qubit is detected via a phase-preserving heterodyne measurement, giving the fluorescence quadrature signals as two continuous qubit readout results. By using the stochastic path integral approach to the measurement physics, we derive most likely paths between boundary conditions on the state, and compute approximate time correlation functions between all stochastic variables via diagrammatic perturbation theory. We focus on paths that increase in energy during the continuous measurement. Our results are compared to Monte Carlo numerical simulation of the trajectories, and we find close agreement between direct simulation and theory. We generalize this analysis to arbitrary diffusive quantum systems that are continuously monitored.

description: The current opioid crisis has, among other things, resulted in soaring rates of fatal overdose across Canada, prompting officials to turn to harm reduction in hopes of combatting the epidemic. The Coroners Service of British Columbia issued a statement in March 2017 reporting an 80% increase in the number of deaths resulting from illicit drug use in 2016 from 2015 (Coroners Service of British Columbia, 2017). Despite the abundance of evidence demonstrating the effectiveness of supervised injection services (SIS) in Canada and worldwide, the implementation of this intervention has remained highly controversial, particularly in Ottawa. Guided by Michel Foucault’s theory of governmentality, this thesis explores the obstacles hindering the implementation of supervised injection services in Ottawa, Ontario. Through eight qualitative semi-structured interviews with front-line workers of harm reduction programs, this thesis identifies and explores several obstacles to the implementation of SIS, primarily bureaucratic obstacles stemming from the enactment of the Respect for Communities Act (2015).

"Smart growth" is attractive because it asks no questions, provides all the answers, and invites no critical thought. It's entirely packaged: all we have to do is unwrap it and wonder at its truth. Planners have a duty to break smart growth rhetoric down to its components- to think about them, test them, and make judgements about what works and what doesn't. To do less is to turn professional practice into a series of checklists, and planners into technicians.

Towards urban growth management in Japan: The role of public participation and citizen councils

subject: Urban policy--Japan

description: Imagine trying to introduce urban growth management in a context where the average farm consists of several separate plots, and where landowners have inviolable rights to develop their land. In Japan, small projects do not need development permits or infrastructure connections. Moreover, until recently, the strongly pro-growth central government refused to allow local authorities to pass strict development-control ordinances. Accordingly, haphazard urban sprawl proliferated. This article describes the efforts of a small resort community in the mountains of central Japan to use public participation and voluntary constraints on development to implement a new approach.

De plus, jusqu'à tout récemment, le gouvernement, résolument orienté vers la croissance, refusait de permettre aux pouvoirs publics locaux de sanctionner des règlements sur l'aménagement, encourageant une croissance urbaine désordonnée. Un petit centre de villégiature dans les montagnes du pays a tenté une approche novatrice en encouragrant la participation publique et des restrictions volontaires en ce qui a trait au lotissement.

Spreading speed of chronic wasting disease across deer groups with overlapping home ranges

Publisher: name: University of Alberta Library
Year: 2021

Chronic wasting disease (CWD) is a fatal disease of cervid species that continues to spread across North America and now in Europe. It poses a threat to cervid populations and the local ecological and economic communities that depend on them. Although empirical studies have shown that host home range overlap and male dispersal are important in the spread of disease, there are few mechanistic models explicitly considering those factors. We built a spatio-temporal, differential equation model for CWD spreading with restricted movement of hosts within home ranges. The model incorporates both direct and environmental transmission within and between groups as well as male dispersal. We compared the relative influence of host density, sex ratio, home range size, and male dispersal distance on the spreading speed using sensitivity analysis. We also assessed the effect of landscape heterogeneity, quantified as edge density, on the spreading speed of CWD because it jointly alters the host density and home range size. Our model binds the theoretical study of CWD spreading speed together with empirical studies on deer home ranges and sets a base for models in 2D space to evaluate management and control strategies.
Half of the picture: representations of East Germany in GDR review, 1958-1989
Creators: name: Hillaker, Lorn Edward
Publisher: name: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Year: 2014

description: This thesis seeks to use external self-representation of East German identity in official propaganda to examine how images of an idealized East Germany were instrumentalized to establish GDR (German Democratic Republic) legitimacy abroad. These representations shall be examined through the lens of the magazine GDR Review from 1958-1989. It argues that despite the current impression of a relatively static, hyper-politicized, communist society, a changing and externally-presented aspirational identity was developed in the GDR through a mutually-reinforcing dual-process of defensive counter-narrative construction and an offensive narrative of internal socialist development, both of which interacted to attempt to establish GDR legitimacy abroad. These changes are best understood through a four-stage process of legitimation, recognition, stabilization, and crisis that reveals an externalized GDR identity capable of responding to changing political climates, the goals of the SED (Socialist Unity Party) regime, and emerging social issues in the quest for legitimacy.

description: Τα αργιλικά ορυκτά έχουν την ιδιότητα του σχηματισμού παχύρευστων πολφών λόγω του μεγέθους των κόκκων τους και της κρυσταλλικής δομής τους. Πιο συγκεκριμένα, το γεγονός ότι ο σεπιόλιθος χαρακτηρίζεται από ινώδη κρυσταλλική δομή και υψηλή προσροφητική ικανότητα, καθιστά σημαντική την μελέτη των πολφών σεπιολίθου. Η ρεολογική συμπεριφορά των πολφών αυτών διαφέρει από αυτή των νευτώνειων ρευστών. Έχει γίνει χρήση νανοσωματιδίων σεπιολίθου σε προηγούμενες μελέτες και αποδείχθηκε πως είναι ιδανικό πρόσθετο για λάσπη γεώτρησης με βάση το μπεντονίτη (Pourafshary et al., 2016), γεγονός που δημιουργεί επιπλέον ενδιαφέρον για την μελέτη πολφών με βάση τον σεπιόλιθο. Στην παρούσα εργασία πραγματοποιείται ο χαρακτηρισμός δείγματος ελληνικού σεπιολίθου, καθώς και η μελέτη της ρεολογικής συμπεριφοράς του αφού έχει προηγηθεί ο κορεσμός του με ιόντα Na, K, Li, Ca, Mg και Sr. Προσδιορίστηκε η ορυκτολογική σύσταση με χρήση της μεθόδου περιθλασιμετρίας ακτίνων-Χ (XRD), καθώς και με τη χημική ανάλυση, με την χρήση της μεθόδου φασματοσκοπίας ακτίνων-Χ φθορισμού διασποράς ενεργειών (ED-XRF). Για τον προσδιορισμό των ρεολογικών ιδιοτήτων δημιουργήθηκαν υδατικοί πολφοί με περιεκτικότητα στερεών 4,5% κ.β. Έπειτα ακολούθησε η ενυδατωσή τους σε θερμοκρασία 25 οC και η δυναμική γήρανση σε θερμοκρασία 100οC. Πραγματοποιήθηκε μέτρηση του ιξώδους σε ιξωδόμετρο GRACE 3500 και η μελέτη των διηθητικών ιδιοτήτων σε φιλτρόπρεσσα χαμηλής πίεσης. Η διεξαγωγή των παραπάνω πειραμάτων ακολούθησε τα πρότυπα του Αμερικανικου Ινστιτούτου Πετρελαίου (Α.Ρ.Ι.13Α, 2010). Με την ολοκλήρωση των πειραματικών διαδικασιών, δεν επιτεύχθηκε η πλήρης κατανόηση των μεταβολών που παρατηρήθηκαν στα ρεογράμματα, παρόλα αυτά τα αποτελέσματα μπορούν να χρησιμοποιηθούν ως βοηθητικά για μελλοντικές μελέτες.
Tendentious Texts: Holocaust Representations and Nation-Rebuilding in East German, Italian, and West German Schoolbooks, 1949-1989

description: This thesis examines how post-fascist countries—East Germany, Italy, and West Germany—represented the Second World War and the Holocaust in middle school history textbooks. History textbooks were important actors in the creation of new democratic communities in East Germany, Italy, and West Germany. Through a transnational comparison of one leading textbook published in each country, this paper answers why and how West Germany was eventually more successful than East Germany and Italy in conveying its youth with a more nuanced and self-critical national memory of the Second World War and the Holocaust. This paper also shows how West German textbooks both reflected and contributed to this relative success. Such knowledge is imperative, not just to understand the past, but also to provide a better grasp of how to democratize youth in the future—an important topic given the specter of right-wing ethno-nationalism that has seen a revival in recent years.

description: In this work we introduce a category of discrete Lagrange--Poincare systems LP_d and study some of its properties. In particular, we show that the discrete mechanical systems and the discrete mechanical systems obtained by the Lagrangian reduction of symmetric discrete mechanical systems are objects in LP_d. We introduce a notion of symmetry groups for objects of LP_d and introduce a reduction procedure that is closed in the category LP_d. Furthermore, under some conditions, we show that the reduction in two steps (first by a closed normal subgroup of the symmetry group and then by the residual symmetry group) is isomorphic in LP_d to the reduction by the full symmetry group.

description: I study the welfare consequences of regulations on high-cost consumer credit in the United States. I estimate a heterogeneous-agents model with uninsurable idiosyncratic risk, risk-based pricing of loans, and preference heterogeneity including households with self-control issues. I find that one-third of high-cost borrowers suffer from self-control issues. Noncontingent regulatory borrowing limits have distributional consequences within households with self-control issues. High-income households benefit from restrictions on borrowing because they face loose price schedules from lenders that allow them to overborrow. Low-income households face tight individually targeted loan price schedules that limit households’ borrowing capacity so that borrowing restrictions cannot improve welfare over them.
description: J’étudie l’incidence sur le bien-être de la réglementation du crédit à la consommation à taux élevé aux États-Unis. J’estime un modèle à agents hétérogènes intégrant le risque idiosyncrasique non assurable, la tarification des prêts basée sur le risque, et les préférences hétérogènes présentes, notamment, parmi les ménages trop portés à emprunter. Je constate que le tiers des personnes qui contractent des emprunts à taux élevé sont dépensières. Les limites réglementaires s’appliquant universellement aux emprunts ont des effets différenciés sur les ménages dépensiers. Les ménages à haut revenu tirent avantage des restrictions sur les emprunts parce que les prêteurs leur offrent une tarification moins contraignante leur permettant de se surendetter. Les ménages à faible revenu, eux, se voient imposer des taux d’emprunt ciblés et contraignants qui limitent leur capacité d’emprunt, de sorte que les restrictions sur les emprunts ne peuvent améliorer leur bien-être.

The great endeavor: national rebirth and the folklore commissions of Ireland and the United States
Creators: name: Richardson, Rachel B.J.
Publisher: name: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Year: 2010

description: The governments of Ireland and the United States established national Folklore Commissions in 1935. These far-reaching cultural programs encouraged a new kind of national pride and awareness, and provided fertile materials for the two nations' writers to use in their art. This thesis focuses on writers William Butler Yeats, Zora Neale Hurston, and Eudora Welty, exploring their literature as products of this particular time and climate. Through their texts, regional contexts, and involvement with the commissions, we may examine their debt to folklore and place, and the far reach of their art.

description: We show that the hadronic "heat capacity" calculated as a function of temperature may be used to infer the possible presence of different scales underlying the dynamical structure of hadronic resonances using the phenomenon of Schottky anomaly. We first demonstrate this possibility with well known meson spectrum in various channels and comment on the possibility of using this method as a diagnostic to distinguish the exotic states.
