description: We have measured the magnetic properties of a mixed valency iron phosphate. It presents an original structure with crossed chains containing Fe II and orthogonal to the longest direction of the crystallites. Microstructural investigations using electron microscopy show the presence of random nano-twinning. The ac susceptibility measurements demonstrate similarities with the kinetics of a disordered magnetic, spin-glass like, state but are shown to be essentially due to this peculiar disorder. Scaling properties are characteristics of 3D second order transition implying that this disorder at a small scale does not influence significantly long range magnetic ordering. At low temperature, a decrease of the spontaneous magnetization and an irreversible metamagnetic transition is observed, and is attributed to a canting of the spins in the iron chain.

description: We use the recently-constructed explicit duality transformation that relates a rotating anti-D6-D4-D2-D0 black hole solution to a rotating M5-M2-P black string to construct a non-supersymmetric black ring in Taub-NUT that has two angular momenta, as well as M2 charges and M5 dipole moments. This is the first black ring solution that has both dipole charges and rotation along the S^2 of the horizon, and hence can be thought of as the "Pomeransky-Senkov" version of the M5-M2 black ring in Taub-NUT. Its physics should provide a testing ground for the applicability of the blackfold approach to charged rotating black branes, and should elucidate the phase space of charged dipole rings in various backgrounds.

Quantum transport through single-molecule junctions with orbital degeneracies

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We consider electronic transport through a single-molecule junction where the molecule has a degenerate spectrum. Unlike previous transport models, and theories a rate-equations description is no longer possible, and the quantum coherences between degenerate states have to be taken into account. We present the derivation and application of a master equation that describes the system in the weak-coupling limit and give an in-depth discussion of the parameter regimes and the new phenomena due to coherent on-site dynamics.
Design and fabrication of solvent compatible polymer microfluidic chips and its application to particle production and drug delivery
Creators: name: Geczy, Reka
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: Despite the recent advancements in the field of microfluidics, the potential of rapid development is often limited due to the inherent challenges posed by the materials used for microfluidic device fabrication. For drug delivery applications, there is a need to identify an optimal material that is cost-effective, compatible with ‘soft-lithography,’ easily replica molded, and resistant to harsh solvents. The family of thiol-ene polymers hold promise as an inexpensive and easy-to-produce alternative. This material shows good chemical compatibility with most organic solvents but falls short for chlorinated solvents which are often used for pharmaceutical applications. Thus, the research presented in this thesis aimed to develop a solvent compatible thiol-ene platform for rapid and cost-effective fabrication of microfluidic chips with a focus on drug delivery applications. This work initially shows the rendering of thiol-ene polymers chloroform compatible in order to open new prototyping avenues for drug delivery purposes. The approach is simple and effective, resulting in a 50-fold increase in chloroform compatibility, allowing for the operation of microfluidic chips in chloroform for several days without any discernible deformation. Next, this thesis shows the novel preparation of small (1-2 μm), monodispersed polylactic acid (PLA) microspheres, utilizing chlorinated solvents for their synthesis. This work presents a simple microfluidic chip design achievable in all microfluidic fabrication labs and relies on flow manipulations to shear of droplets well under the often-regarded minimum size limits. The prepared particles show high monodispersity and significant loading with magnetite nanoparticles; hence, hold promise for magnetically targeted drug delivery. In addition to droplet production, thiol-enes are suited for the bulk precipitation of uniform nanoparticles. The final work presented here focuses on siRNA loading within the lipid-polymer hybrid nanoparticles. This work shows exquisite size control, ranging from 70-300 nm, uniform sizes, and high siRNA encapsulation efficiency. The results obtained during this study presents a facile method to produce cost-effective and solvent compatible thiol-ene microfluidic chips highly suitable for numerous applications. With extensive experimental evidence, the fabricated thiol-ene microfluidic chips are shown to be very efficient for the production of pharmaceutical delivery vehicles of all sizes, ranging from the nano- to the micro-scale.

description: We unveil the general features of the phase diagram for any gauge theory with fermions transforming according to distinct representations of the underlying gauge group, at the four-loop order. We classify and analyze the zeros of the perturbative beta function and discover the existence of a rich phase diagram. The anomalous dimension of the fermion masses, at the infrared stable fixed point, are presented. We show that the infrared fixed point, and associated anomalous dimension, are well described by the all-orders beta function for any theory. We also argue the possible existence, to all orders, of a nontrivial ultraviolet fixed point for gauge theories at large number of flavors.

How Dynamic Boundary Conditions Induce Solute Trapping and Quasi-stagnant Zones in Laboratory Experiments Comprising Unsaturated Heterogeneous Porous Media
Creators: name: Cremer, C. J. M.
name: Neuweiler, I.
Publisher: name: FID GEO
Year: 2019

description: The vadose zone is subject to dynamic boundary conditions in the form of infiltration and evaporation. A better understanding of implications for flow and solute transport, arising from these dynamic boundary conditions in combination with heterogeneous structure, will help to improve the prediction of the fate of solutes. We present laboratory experiments and numerical simulations of heterogeneous porous media under unsaturated conditions where controlled, temporally varying precipitation and evaporation are applied to study the effect of dynamic boundary conditions on solute transport in the presence of material interfaces. Dye tracers Eosine Y and Brilliant Blue FCF are utilized to visualize solute transport and analyze redistribution processes in a flow cell. Water and solute fluxes in and out of the flow cell are quantified. While in dynamic experiments application of small infiltration rates (significantly below the saturated hydraulic conductivities of the materials) led to a reversal of transport paths between infiltration and succeeding evaporation, larger infiltration rates altered downward transport such that flow and transport paths differed from those observed during evaporation. Differences in transport paths ultimately led to a redistribution and trapping of solute in one material which manifested as pronounced tailing in breakthrough curves. Trapping was induced not by the formation of a stagnant zone as result of large parameter contrast but by an interplay of dynamic boundary conditions and material heterogeneity. This study thereby highlights the importance to consider dynamic boundary conditions in predictions of solute leaching.

description: Crowdsourcing has emerged as an alternative solution for collecting large scale labels. However, the majority of recruited workers are not domain experts, so their contributed labels could be noisy. In this article, we propose a two-stage model to predict the true labels for multicategory classification tasks in crowdsourcing. In the first stage, we fit the observed labels with a latent factor model and incorporate subgroup structures for both tasks and workers through a multi-centroid grouping penalty. Group-specific rotations are introduced to align workers with different task categories to solve multicategory crowdsourcing tasks. In the second stage, we propose a concordance-based approach to identify high-quality worker subgroups who are relied upon to assign labels to tasks. In theory, we show the estimation consistency of the latent factors and the prediction consistency of the proposed method. The simulation studies show that the proposed method outperforms the existing competitive methods, assuming the subgroup structures within tasks and workers. We also demonstrate the application of the proposed method to real world problems and show its superiority. Supplementary materials for this article are available online.

Nachhaltigkeit als Basis genossenschaftlichen Handelns

Publisher: name: Berichte über Landwirtschaft - Zeitschrift für Agrarpolitik und Landwirtschaft
Year: 2022

description: In Europa haben Genossenschaften eine lange Tradition und sind im landwirtschaftlichen Sektor weit verbreitet. Im Weinsektor haben Genossenschaften in einigen EU-Ländern sogar einen Marktanteil von mehr als 50 %. Trotz des Rückgangs der Zahl der Genossenschaften, der Mitglieder und der genossenschaftlich bewirtschafteten Rebfläche machen die Winzergenossenschaften immer noch rund ein Viertel der deutschen Rebfläche aus. Aufgrund der Entwicklungen im Bereich der Nachhaltigkeit stehen die Genossenschaften zunehmend unter Druck. Eine Studie zu den Reaktionen der Winzergenossenschaften auf die hohe Wettbewerbsintensität im deutschen Weinmarkt aus dem Jahr 2019 zeigt, dass das Thema Nachhaltigkeit in der strategischen Ausrichtung der Genossenschaften bisher kaum Beachtung findet. Die Umsetzung nachhaltiger Maßnahmen (auf ökologischer, ökonomischer und sozialer Ebene) wurde bisher nicht explizit für Winzergenossenschaften analysiert. Ziel dieses Beitrags ist es, einen ersten Einblick zu geben wie die Geschäftsführung von Winzergenossenschaften das Konstrukt Nachhaltigkeit wahrnimmt und welche Maßnahmen Winzergenossenschaften in Bezug auf die ökologische, ökonomische und soziale Nachhaltigkeit anwenden. Für die empirische Erhebung wurde aufgrund fehlender Literatur zu diesem Thema ein qualitativer Ansatz gewählt, welcher Experteninterviews mit dem Management von Winzergenossenschaften (n=13) sowie mit anderen Experten aus dem Genossenschaftswesen (n=4) umfasst. Die Daten wurden inhaltsanalytisch ausgewertet. Die Ergebnisse beschreiben den aktuellen Stand in Bezug auf nachhaltiges Wirtschaften in Winzergenossenschaften. Auch wenn das allgemeine Verständnis von Nachhaltigkeit bei den Befragten recht ähnlich ist, unterscheidet sich die Operationalisierung in den Genossenschaften stark. Weitere Möglichkeiten für zukünftige Forschung und die Limitationen der Studie werden aufgezeigt.

description: Connected components of $\Map(S^4,B\SU(2))$ are the classifying spaces of gauge groups of principal $\SU(2)$-bundles over $S^4$. Tsukuda [Tsu01] has investigated the homotopy types of connected components of $\Map(S^4,B\SU(2))$. But unfortunately, the proof of Lemma 2.4 in [Tsu01] is not correct for $p=2$. In this paper, we give a complete proof. Moreover, we investigate the further divisibility of $ε_i$ defined in [Tsu01]. In [Tsu], it is shown that divisibility of $ε_i$ have some information about $A_i$-equivalence types of the gauge groups.

Here we combine observations from >20 years of investigations to demonstrate the nature of fluid-flow along the NFZ, which is the seismically most active region off Vancouver Island. Seismicity reaching down to the upper mantle is linked to near-seafloor manifestation of fluid flow through a network of faults. Along the two main fault traces, seismic reflection data imaged bright spots 100–300 m below seafloor that lie above changes in basement topography. The bright spots are conformable to sediment layering, show opposite-to-seafloor reflection polarity, and are associated with frequency reduction and velocity push-down indicating the presence of gas in the sediments. Two seafloor mounds ~15 km seaward of the Nootka slope are underlain by deep, nonconformable high-amplitude reflective zones. Measurements in the water column above one mound revealed a plume of warm water, and bottom-video observations imaged hydrothermal vent system biota. Pore fluids from a core at this mound contain predominately microbial methane (C1) with a high proportion of ethane (C2) yielding C1/C2 ratios <500 indicating a possible slight contribution from a deep source. We infer the reflective zones beneath the two mounds are basaltic intrusions that create hydrothermal circulation within the overlying sediments. Across the Nootka continental slope, gas hydrate-related bottom-simulating reflectors are widespread and occur at depths indicating heat flow values of 80–90 mW/m2.

description: È possibile organizzare un viaggio che abbia come meta il benessere degli allievi e dell’insegnante? A questo interrogativo ho avuto il desiderio di voler dare una risposta, tramite il presente lavoro di diploma. Il peso e l’importanza del lavoro di ricerca risiedono nel desiderio di identificare, capire ed apprezzare l’azione molteplice, che il clima di classe esercita sulla qualità dell’insegnamento/apprendimento, in particolare nelle mie discipline (tedesco e italiano L2). Tuttavia, esso è determinato dalla qualità della circolarità delle relazioni tra pari, e tra il docente e gli allievi. Tale circolarità continua e costante è il fine ultimo, che alimenta il senso di benessere diffuso in classe. Pertanto, intendo indagare come il ruolo dell’insegnante e le attività da lei proposte possano determinare il benessere dell’allievo e la sua motivazione nei riguardi dell’apprendimento. In classe, si sperimenta un’apertura ad un approccio didattico di tipo cooperativo, implementando l’uso di didattiche che attivino le competenze trasversali descritte nel Piano di studio (2015), con l’obiettivo di condurre ad un’apertura alle interazioni tra il gruppo-classe. In questa prospettiva, durante l’anno scolastico si evince un generico superamento delle barriere invisibili createsi in passato. Le difficoltà a livello di interazioni iniziali, sono piano piano scivolate verso buone relazioni e scambi nel gruppo, aumentate progressivamente in numero e qualità. La domanda iniziale ha trovato la risposta giusta. Relatori: Alberto Crescentini e Luca Sciaroni. Materie: Italiano/Tedesco.

description: Coupled climate models participating in the CMIP5 (Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5) exhibit a large intermodel spread in the representation of long-term trends in soil moisture and snow in response to anthropogenic climate change. We evaluate long-term (January 1861 to December 2099) water storage trends from 21 CMIP5 models against observed trends in terrestrial water storage (TWS) obtained from 14 years (April 2002 to August 2016) of the GRACE (Gravity Recovery And Climate Experiment) satellite mission. This is complicated due to the incomplete representation of TWS in CMIP5 models and interannual climate variability masking long-term trends in observations. We thus evaluate first the spread in projected trends among CMIP5 models and identify regions of broad model consensus. Second, we assess the extent to which these projected trends are already present during the historical period (January 1861 to August 2016) and thus potentially detectable in observational records available today. Third, we quantify the degree to which 14-year tendencies can be expected to represent long-term trends, finding that regional long-term trends start to emerge from interannual variations after just 14 years while stable global trend patterns are detectable after 30 years. We classify regions of strong model consensus into areas where (1) climate-related TWS changes are supported by the direction of GRACE trends, (2) mismatch of trends hints at possible model deficits, (3) the short observation time span and/or anthropogenic influences prevent reliable conclusions about long-term wetting or drying. We thereby demonstrate the value of satellite observations of water storage to further constrain the response of the terrestrial water cycle to climate change.
Global Self-Similar Protostellar Disk/Wind Models

description: The magnetocentrifugal disk wind mechanism is the leading candidate for producing the large-scale, bipolar jets commonly seen in protostellar systems. I present a detailed formulation of a global, radially self-similar model for a non-ideal disk that launches a magnetocentrifugal wind. This formulation generalizes the conductivity tensor formalism previously used in radially localized disk models. The model involves matching a solution of the equations of non-ideal MHD describing matter in the disk to a solution of the equations of ideal MHD describing a "cold" wind. The disk solution must pass smoothly through the sonic point, the wind solution must pass smoothly through the Alfvén point, and the two solutions must match at the disk/wind interface. This model includes for the first time a self-consistent treatment of the evolution of magnetic flux threading the disk, which can change on the disk accretion timescale. The formulation presented here also allows a realistic conductivity profile for the disk to be used in a global disk/wind model for the first time. The physical constraints on the model solutions fix the distribution of the magnetic field threading the disk, the midplane accretion speed, and the midplane migration speed of flux surfaces. I present a representative solution that corresponds to a disk in the ambipolar conductivity regime with a nominal neutral-matter--magnetic-field coupling parameter that is constant along field lines, matched to a wind solution. I conclude with a brief discussion of the importance of self-similar disk/wind models in studying global processes such as dust evolution in protostellar systems.

The role of oligodendrocyte remyelination in locomotor recovery after traumatic spinal cord injury
Creators: name: Manesh, Sohrab
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2021

description: Remyelination occurs after spinal cord injury (SCI) but its functional relevance is unclear. We assessed the necessity of myelin regulatory factor (Myrf) in remyelination after contusive SCI by deleting the gene from platelet-derived growth factor receptor alpha positive (PDGFRα-positive) oligodendrocyte precursor cells (OPCs) in mice prior to SCI. While OPC proliferation and density were not altered by Myrf inducible knockout after SCI, the accumulation of new oligodendrocytes was prevented. This greatly inhibited myelin regeneration resulting in a loss of myelinated axons at the lesion epicenter. However, spontaneous locomotor recovery after SCI was not altered by remyelination failure. In controls with functional MYRF, locomotor recovery preceded the onset of substantial oligodendrocyte myelin regeneration. We next assessed locomotor recovery in a severe model of SCI where fewer axons were spared. Here animals were still able to recover despite the inhibition of remyelination. We noticed that ion channels were redistributed in demyelinated axons. Further testing showed knockout animals were able to show conduction properties similar to that of control animals. Collectively, these data demonstrate that MYRF expression in PDGFRα-positive cell derived oligodendrocytes is indispensable for oligodendrocyte myelin regeneration following contusive SCI, that remyelination is not required for spontaneous recovery of stepping in moderate or severe injuries, and that demyelinated axons redistribute voltage gated ion channels and conduction properties similar to that of unmyelinated axons.

description: For the extraction of the best possible X-ray diffraction data from macromolecular crystals, accurate positioning of the crystals with respect to the X-ray beam is crucial. In addition, information about the shape and internal defects of crystals allows the optimization of data-collection strategies. Here, it is demonstrated that the X-ray beam available on the macromolecular crystallography beamline P14 at the high-brilliance synchrotron-radiation source PETRA III at DESY, Hamburg, Germany can be used for high-energy phase-contrast microtomography of protein crystals mounted in an optically opaque lipidic cubic phase matrix. Three-dimensional tomograms have been obtained at X-ray doses that are substantially smaller and on time scales that are substantially shorter than those used for diffraction-scanning approaches that display protein crystals at micrometre resolution. Adding a compound refractive lens as an objective to the imaging setup, two-dimensional imaging at sub-micrometre resolution has been achieved. All experiments were performed on a standard macromolecular crystallography beamline and are compatible with standard diffraction data-collection workflows and apparatus. Phase-contrast X-ray imaging of macromolecular crystals could find wide application at existing and upcoming low-emittance synchrotron-radiation sources.

description: We perform detailed analytical and numerical studies of a recently proposed method for a spectroscopic measurement of the superfluid fraction of an ultracold atomic gas [N. R. Cooper and Z. Hadzibabic, Phys. Rev. Lett. 104, 030401 (2010)]. Previous theoretical work is extended by explicitly including the effects of non-zero temperature and interactions, and assessing the quantitative accuracy of the proposed measurement for a one-component Bose gas. We show that for suitably chosen experimental parameters the method yields an experimentally detectable signal and a sufficiently accurate measurement. This is illustrated by explicitly considering two key examples: First, for a weakly interacting three-dimensional Bose gas it reproduces the expected result that below the critical temperature the superfluid fraction closely follows the condensate fraction. Second, it allows a clear quantitative differentiation of the superfluid and the condensate density in a strongly interacting Bose gas.

description: Crystalline-silicon (c-Si) photovoltaic (PV) modules are clearly dominated by material costs, especially by the costs of the silicon wafer. Currently, the efficiency of the cells and modules is the main advantage to bring down the costs even more. Here, optimised c-Si PV module is proposed after introducing a back surface field (BSF) layer and transparent conductive electrode by simulating the performance of different c-Si solar-cell modules. First, simulation has been carried out on a simple p–n junction solar cell for optimised layer thickness and different doping density of acceptor and donor atoms. To further reduce the thickness of base region, a highly doped p+ layer was introduced at the back surface of base region as the BSF. The solar cell was optimised with BSF layer to get power conversion efficiency (PCE) of 16.35%. Furthermore, an anti-reflective layer of indium tin oxide (ITO) with optimised thickness was introduced as a front surface electrode. This device model showed an increased short-circuit current (Jsc) and open-circuit voltage (Voc) with an improved efficiency. This work is a fundamental study to achieve reasonable good efficiencies at low cost through optimisation of the BSF layer and transparent conductive electrodes.

Stand-Alone Eastern Pacific Coastal Warming Events

Publisher: name: FID GEO
Year: 2019

description: A pronounced warm anomaly occurred at the Peruvian coast in early 2017. This “Coastal Niño” caused heavy rainfalls, leading to flooding in Peru and Ecuador. At the same time, neutral conditions prevailed in the equatorial Pacific. Using observational sea surface temperature data sets and an ocean reanalysis product for the time period 1900 to 2010, previous similar events are investigated. Eighteen coastal warming events without corresponding equatorial Pacific warming are identified. Further analysis shows, however, that only four of these events are not connected to the central equatorial Pacific. All other periods of strong coastal warm anomalies are directly followed or preceded by El Niño-like conditions. The “stand-alone” coastal warming events are characterized by comparatively low equatorial heat content. We thus hypothesize that the depleted heat content in the equatorial Pacific in the wake of the strong 2015/2016 El Niño prevented the warming to spread westward in 2017.

description: The El Niño phase of the El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is typically associated with below-average cool-season rainfall in southeastern Australia (SEA). However, there is also large case-to-case variability on monthly time-scales. Despite recent progress in understanding the links between remote climate drivers and this variability, the underlying dynamical processes are not fully understood. This reanalysis-based study aims to advance the dynamical understanding by quantifying the contribution of midlatitude weather systems to monthly precipitation anomalies over SEA during the austral winter–spring season. A k-means clustering reveals four rainfall anomaly patterns with above-average rainfall (Cluster 1), below-average rainfall (Cluster 2), above-average rainfall along the East Coast (Cluster 3) and along the South Coast (Cluster 4). Cluster 2 occurs most frequently during El Niño, which highlights the general suppression of SEA rainfall during these events. However, the remaining three clusters with local above-average rainfall are found in ∼52% of all El Niño months. Changes of weather system frequency determine the respective rainfall anomaly pattern. Results indicate significantly more cut-off lows and warm conveyor belts (WCBs) over SEA in El Niño Cluster 1 and significantly fewer in El Niño Cluster 2. In El Niño Cluster 3, enhanced blocking south of Australia favours cut-off lows leading to increased rainfall along the East Coast. Positive rainfall anomalies along the South Coast in El Niño Cluster 4 are associated with frontal rainfall due to an equatorward shift of the midlatitude storm track. Most of the rainfall is produced by WCBs and cut-off lows but the contributions strongly vary between the clusters. In all clusters, rainfall anomalies result from changes in rainfall frequency more than in rainfall intensity. Backward trajectories of WCB and cut-off low rainfall highlight the importance of moist air masses from the Coral Sea and the northwest coast of Australia during wet months.

description: We propose a highly efficient numerical method to describe inhomogeneous superconductivity by using the kernel polynomial method in order to calculate the Green's functions of a superconductor. Broken translational invariance of any type (impurities, surfaces or magnetic fields) can be easily incorporated. We show that limitations due to system size can be easily circumvented and therefore this method opens the way for the study of scenarios and/or geometries that were unaccessible before. The proposed method is highly efficient and amenable to large scale parallel computation. Although we only use it in the context of superconductivity, it is applicable to other inhomogeneous mean-field theories.
Recordings of Fast Paleomagnetic Reversals in a 1.2 Ma Greigite-Rich Sediment Archive From Lake Ohrid, Balkans

description: State-of-the-art paleoclimate research strongly depends on the availability of time-equivalent markers as chronological control to disentangle interrelationships in the climate system from regional to global scale. Geomagnetic reversals are regarded as excellent age constraints because they are global events and independent from climatic conditions. However, spatial variations of timing and internal dynamics of reversals may limit their precision. Our 1.2 Ma high-resolution (~25 cm/kyr) sediment record from Lake Ohrid is promising to precisely depict the Matuyama-Brunhes (MB) reversal and the Jaramillo subchron. Two generations of diagenetic ferrimagnetic minerals are present in glacial intervals of the Lake Ohrid record. Early diagenetic greigite acquired a quasi synsedimentary chemical magnetization, while a late diagenetic greigite formation, triggered by the upward diffusion of H2S-rich waters, obscures the polarity record at the top of the Jaramillo. Interglacial intervals are unaffected by greigite formation, likely due to low iron concentrations. Based on an orbitally tuned age model with tephrostratigraphic markers, the base of Jaramillo can be precisely dated to 1072.4 ka, and the MB reversal to 778.5 ka. Both polarity reversals occurred very rapidly in our record, lasting 2.3 and 1 kyr, respectively. Our results reveal that the dipole component of the Earth's magnetic field fell below the nondipole components only for a short duration in the Mediterranean region. The comparison of the timing of the MB boundary across different archives implies that the onset of the reversal provides a more synchronous age marker compared to often used midpoint ages.
