description: End-to-end mission performance simulators (E2ES) are suitable tools to accelerate satellite mission development from concet to deployment. One core element of these E2ES is the generation of synthetic scenes that are observed by the various instruments of an Earth Observation mission. The generation of these scenes rely on Radiative Transfer Models (RTM) for the simulation of light interaction with the Earth surface and atmosphere. However, the execution of advanced RTMs is impractical due to their large computation burden. Classical interpolation and statistical emulation methods of pre-computed Look-Up Tables (LUT) are therefore common practice to generate synthetic scenes in a reasonable time. This work evaluates the accuracy and computation cost of interpolation and emulation methods to sample the input LUT variable space. The results on MONDTRAN-based top-of-atmosphere radiance data show that Gaussian Process emulators produced more accurate output spectra than linear interpolation at a fraction of its time. It is concluded that emulation can function as a fast and more accurate alternative to interpolation for LUT parameter space sampling.

description: Hardcore functions have been used as a technical tool to construct secure cryptographic systems; however, little is known on their quantum counterpart, called quantum hardcore functions. With a new insight into fundamental properties of quantum hardcores, we present three new quantum hardcore functions for any (strong) quantum one-way function. We also give a "quantum" solution to Damgard's question (CRYPTO'88) on a classical hardcore property of his pseudorandom generator, by proving its quantum hardcore property. Our major technical tool is the new notion of quantum list-decoding of "classical" error-correcting codes (rather than "quantum" error-correcting codes), which is defined on the platform of computational complexity theory and computational cryptography (rather than information theory). In particular, we give a simple but powerful criterion that makes a polynomial-time computable classical block code (seen as a function) a quantum hardcore for all quantum one-way functions. On their own interest, we construct efficient quantum list-decoding algorithms for classical block codes whose associated quantum states (called codeword states) form a nearly phase-orthogonal basis.

description: Let $M^*(q)$ be the unique nonassociative finite simple Moufang loop constructed over $GF(q)$. We prove that $Aut(M^*(2))$ is the Chevalley group $G_2(2)$, by extending multiplicative automorphism of $M^*(2)$ into linear automorphisms of the unique split octonion algebra over GF(2). Many of our auxiliary results apply in the general case. In the course of the proof we show that every element of a split octonion algebra can be written as a sum of two elements of norm one.

description: The accretion disk is formed by particles moving in closed orbits around a compact object, whose physical properties and the electromagnetic radiation characteristics are determined by the space-time geometry around the compact object. In this paper, we study the physical properties and the optical appearance of the electromagnetic radiation emitted from a thin accretion disk around the two types of the black hole solution in Einstein-Æther theory. We investigate in detail the effects of the æther field on the energy flux, temperature distribution, and electromagnetic spectrum of the disk in the two types of slowly rotating Einstein-Æther black holes. Then we plot the ray-traced redshifted image as well as the intensity and polarization profile of a lensed accretion disk around the two types of Einstein-Æther black holes. We found that from the image simulation, the æther field only has a certain effect on the central shadow area of the accretion disk.

description: Let $F$ be a perfect field and $M^*(F)$ the nonassociative simple Moufang loop consisting of the units in the (unique) split octonion algebra $O(F)$ modulo the center. Then $Aut(M^*(F))$ is equal to $G_2(F) \rtimes Aut(F)$. In particular, every automorphism of $M^*(F)$ is induced by a semilinear automorphism of $O(F)$. The proof combines results and methods from geometrical loop theory, groups of Lie type and composition algebras; its gist being an identification of the automorphism group of a Moufang loop with a subgroup of the automorphism group of the associated group with triality.

description: An Omnimagnet is an electromagnetic device that enables remote magnetic manipulation of devices such as medical implants and microrobots. It is comprised of three orthogonal nested solenoids with a ferromagnetic core at the center. Electrical current within the solenoids leads to Joule heating, resulting in undesired temperature increase within the Omnimagnet. If the temperature exceeds the melting point of the wire insulation, device failure will occur. Thus, a study of heat transfer within an Omnimagnet is a necessity, particularly to maximize the performance of the device. For the first time, a transient heat transfer model, that incorporates all three heat transfer modes, is proposed and validated with experimental data for an Omnimagnet with maximum root mean square error equal to 8${\%}$ (4$^{\circ}$C). This transient model is not computationally expensive. It is relatively easy to apply to Omnimagnets with different structures. The accuracy of this model depends on the accuracy of the input data. The code is applied to calculate the maximum safe operational time at a fixed input current or the maximum safe input current for a fixed time interval. The maximum safe operational time and maximum safe input current depend on size and structure of the Omnimagnet and the lowest melting point of all the Omnimagnet materials. A parametric study shows that increasing convective heat transfer during cooling, and during heating with low input currents, is an effective method to increase the maximum operational time of the Omnimagnet.The thermal model is also presented in a state-space equation format that can be used in a real-time Kalman filter current controller to avoid device failure due to excessive heating.

description: The temperature dependence of the refractive indices of potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) are shown to enable quasi-phasematched type II spontaneous parametric downconversion (SPDC) with low temperature sensitivity. Calculations show the effect to be maximised for emission of photons at around 1165nm, as well as producing potentially useful regions for wavelengths throughout the telecommunications bands. We demonstrate the effect experimentally, observing temperature-insensitive degenerate emission at 1326nm, within the telecommunications O band. This result has practical applications in the development of entangled photon sources for resource-constrained environments, and we demonstrate a simple polarization entangled source as a proof of concept.

It has been shown that both these types of synchronization are caused by similar mechanisms and should be considered as the same type of the chaotic oscillator behavior. The mechanisms resulting in the generalized synchronization are mostly similar to ones taking place in the case of the noise-induced synchronization with biased noise.

Creating meaning within the process of integrating language and content: the action of using graphic representations of knowledge structures to adapt content to meet the needs of English second language learners
Creators: name: Hawkes, Andrea C.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This exploratory action research describes the process of using the Knowledge Framework, and specifically graphics, within the context of a grade 6 science class in an attempt to meet the academic learning needs of English Second Language (ESL) students. It focuses on the understandings created among the classroom teacher, the English Language Support Teacher (ELST), and the students as they interacted within a naturalistic classroom setting during a science unit on Flight. An action research approach, including planning, observing, reflecting and understanding, rethinking and replanning, and evaluating was used to effect understanding and change for the participants. Eight themes regarding the Knowledge Framework emerged from the data collected. Students' usage and understanding of graphics and the Knowledge Framework fell upon a continuum. Some students relied more heavily on the graphics they created to communicate their understanding of content. Likewise, the teachers relied more heavily on student produced graphics to assess understanding when students were at lower levels of English language proficiency. It was necessary for teachers to create tasks that encouraged students to interact with graphics to ensure that students utilised graphics in their learning. Students engaged in a cyclical process of interaction between text and graphic to clarify understanding. Students' and teachers' awareness of graphics developed as the Flight unit progressed. Graphics were used within the cluster of tasks that naturally occurred within the content class. As a result of the action research process, change in teaching practice occurred for the classroom teacher and the ELST. Conclusions and implications for teachers are discussed based on the data collected.

description: It is known that the most significant difference of plate heat exchangers (PHEs) from other heat exchangers (HEs) is their heat transfer efficiency. The thinness of the plates separating the two fluids compared to the other HEs increases the heat transfer rate and decreases the heat losses that will occur during the transfer. Since heat rejection is an essential part of Organic Rankine Cycle (ORC) systems, all improvements on heat transfer will lead higher efficiencies. The aim of the study is to increase the efficiency of PHEs. In this study, two different compact PHE prototypes with trachea pattern and fish gill pattern are created by taking inspiration from nature. HEs are made up of three plates each. PHEs are numerically analyzed using computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Temperature and pressure contours are taken for both the hot and cold sides, and the convective heat transfer coefficient, Reynold's number, Prandtl number, effectiveness and entropy generation are calculated. The results obtained are compared. The heat transfer amount for the trachea patterned PHE was 2800W, entropy production 27.07W/K, effectiveness 0.26, while for the fish gill pattern PHE, these values are obtained as 1881W, 20.26W/K and 0.18, respectively. It has been observed that the trachea pattern PHE is better in increasing the amount of heat transfer compared to the fish gill pattern PHE.

description: This paper presents optical night sky brightness measurements from the stratosphere using CCD images taken with the Super-pressure Balloon-borne Imaging Telescope (SuperBIT). The data used for estimating the backgrounds were obtained during three commissioning flights in 2016, 2018, and 2019 at altitudes ranging from 28 km to 34 km above sea level. For a valid comparison of the brightness measurements from the stratosphere with measurements from mountain-top ground-based observatories (taken at zenith on the darkest moonless night at high Galactic and high ecliptic latitudes), the stratospheric brightness levels were zodiacal light and diffuse Galactic light subtracted, and the airglow brightness was projected to zenith. The stratospheric brightness was measured around 5.5 hours, 3 hours, and 2 hours before the local sunrise time in 2016, 2018, and 2019 respectively. The $B$, $V$, $R$, and $I$ brightness levels in 2016 were 2.7, 1.0, 1.1, and 0.6 mag arcsec$^{-2}$ darker than the darkest ground-based measurements. The $B$, $V$, and $R$ brightness levels in 2018 were 1.3, 1.0, and 1.3 mag arcsec$^{-2}$ darker than the darkest ground-based measurements. The $U$ and $I$ brightness levels in 2019 were 0.1 mag arcsec$^{-2}$ brighter than the darkest ground-based measurements, whereas the $B$ and $V$ brightness levels were 0.8 and 0.6 mag arcsec$^{-2}$ darker than the darkest ground-based measurements. The lower sky brightness levels, stable photometry, and lower atmospheric absorption make stratospheric observations from a balloon-borne platform a unique tool for astronomy. We plan to continue this work in a future mid-latitude long duration balloon flight with SuperBIT.

description: The Aviation Environmental Design Tool (AEDT), developed by the FAA, is used to analyze the environmental impact of airport activities on air quality and noise near airports. AEDT incorporates AERMOD to estimate concentrations resulting from aircraft emissions, which possess horizontal momentum as well as buoyancy. The current version (v23132) of AERMOD incorporates plume dynamics associated with such emissions as an ALPHA option. AERMET, AERMOD’s meteorological processor does not account for the meteorology of the land-water interface that is likely to be important for airports located on the shorelines of lakes or oceans. An approach to include these effects in AERMOD was previously developed. This study examines the impact of including plume rise and shoreline effects in AERMOD by evaluating model estimates of NOX and SO2 with corresponding measurements made during the Los Angeles Airport Air Quality Source Apportionment Study (AQSAS) in the winter and summer of 2012. The performance statistics resulting from this model evaluation suggest that the inclusion of plume rise of aircraft emissions and shoreline effects on meteorological inputs is likely to improve AERMOD’s ability to estimate the impact of airport emissions on surrounding air quality. Implications: Because airport emissions, particularly those from aircraft, affect local air quality, the National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) requires the use of dispersion models such as AERMOD to assess compliance of air quality regulations when potential expansions of airport activity are planned. The current regulatory version of AERMOD does not include aircraft-specific plume rise and shoreline-related meteorological processes, which affect the dispersion of airport emissions. The preliminary evidences presented in our previous work suggest that the incorporation of these effects will enhance AERMOD’s ability to estimate NOX and SO2 concentrations associated with airport emissions. These enhancements are beneficial not only for policy-making and regulatory compliance but also for promoting sustainable development near airports and protecting public health.

Curriculum orientations and program realities: negotiated agendas?
Creators: name: Mossman, Timothy Norman
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The purpose of this classroom-based case study was to explore the process by which institutional values are translated into teaching and learning. A content-based course, Translating and Interpreting 200 (TT 200), offered in the second year of a two-year program at a Canadian college for Japanese ESL students was the focus of the study. The mission of this institution was to educate students to develop a global perspective. The study involved four groups of participants: 1) three senior management members, 2) three "junior management" members, 3) four IT 200 faculty and 4) forty-two students. Data were collected through document analysis and ethnographic interviewing. The study investigated A) the intended program, identifying the curriculum orientations (McNeil, 1990) in the mission statement, in senior management's interpretation of the mission statement, and in IT 200 faculty definitions of globalism and B) the enacted curriculum, examining the extent to which the orientations were evident in IT 200 curriculum documents and in students' perceptions of their learning. Results indicated that the mission statement, in addition to the curriculum orientations identified by McNeil (1990), was based on a processual form of humanism containing key moments of reconceptualization-- self-actualization, perspective building and global impact—through which students were able to view themselves and their relationships with other people anew. Faculty definitions of globalism were congruent with the intended orientations, supporting a match between the intended and implemented curriculum. Administrative constraints and faculty perceptions of students were perceived to limit the implementability of humanistic and social orientations underlying globalism. The intended orientations emerged in the IT 200 curriculum document, giving students exposure to a variety of learning experiences which worked in unity to bring about the intended aims of the mission statement Students' perceptions of their learning in IT 200 reflected the intended orientations. Social (26%), Technical-Academic (17%) and a Technological-Academic / Humanistic (17%) combination emerged dominant An analysis of the data from three students revealed a unifying themetransformation, supporting Mezirow's (1978; 1981; 1990) theory of perspective transformation and the Reconceptual approach (Heubner, 1963) that stresses learning through lived experience and particular perspectives.

description: The incineration of municipal solid waste (MSW) produces byproducts known as MSW incineration (MSWI) ash. The reuse of MSWI ash as a construction material prevails in several areas of the world, namely Europe and Asia, however, reuse in the United States (US) lags due to regulatory requirements for disposal practices. Developing a recycling program for MSWI ash provides an alternative end-of-life disposal scenario for material currently landfilled and supplements the reliability of mining of natural aggregates. This study provides a programmatic review of the past decade of challenges and opportunities a local government in the US has experienced to implement a recycling program for their MSWI bottom ash (BA) as a construction aggregate in road materials, such as hot mix asphalt, concrete pavement, and road base. The regulatory and practical challenges in the U.S. are presented, including meeting mechanical and environmental performance requirements (e.g., strength and leaching-to-groundwater). The novel approach to overcoming these challenges include blending MSWIBA from two facilities with common aggregates, creating suitable construction materials. Interfacing with local and state agencies, such as the Department of Environmental Protection and Transportation resulted in additional testing to establish the MSWIBA as a beneficial use material and obtain essential approvals for advancing reuse opportunities. This paper synthesizes available data regarding the challenges, opportunities, and implementation of this recycling program by reviewing the experiences of an MSWI facility in the US to provide fundamental guidance to those considering similar applications. Implications: The reuse of municipal solid waste incinerator bottom ash (MSWIBA) lags in the United States (US) due to regulatory limitations and lack of precedence. This manuscript details the steps of a local government in the US to establishing a novel recycling program for their MSWIBA, including performance evaluation, regulatory interfacing, and outreach. This critical review provides a comprehensive document containing appropriate considerations required to implement similar MSWIBA recycling programs in the US and offers lawmakers, policymakers, and MSWI operators knowledge regarding opportunities and challenges associated with pursuing this avenue.

description: We present a new polar representation of quaternions inspired by the Cayley-Dickson representation. In this new polar representation, a quaternion is represented by a pair of complex numbers as in the Cayley-Dickson form, but here these two complex numbers are a complex 'modulus' and a complex 'argument'. As in the Cayley-Dickson form, the two complex numbers are in the same complex plane (using the same complex root of -1), but the complex phase is multiplied by a different complex root of -1 in the exponential function. We show how to calculate the amplitude and phase from an arbitrary quaternion in Cartesian form.

description: In this work, we evaluate the contributions of the hadronic loops to the amplitudes of $J/ψ\to PV$ where $P$ and $V$ denote light pseudoscalar and vector mesons respectively. By fitting data of two well measured channels of $J/ψ\to PV$, we obtain the contribution from the pure OZI process to the amplitude which is expressed by a phenomenological quantity $|\mathcal{G}^{PV}_{S}|$, and a parameter $α$ existing in the calculations of the contribution of hadronic loops. In terms of $α$ and $|\mathcal{G}^{PV}_{S}|$, we calculate the branching ratios of other channels and get results which are reasonably consistent with data. Our results show that the contributions from the hadronic loops are of the same order of magnitude as that from the OZI processes and the interference between the two contributions are destructive. The picture can be applied to study other channels such as PP or VV of decays of $J/ψ$.

Space-time imaging, magnification and time reversal of matter waves

description: An imaging system is proposed for matter-wave functions that is based on producing a quadratic phase modulation on the wavefunction of a charged particle, analogous to that produced by a space or time lens. The modulation is produced by co-propagating the wavepacket within an extremum of the harmonic vector and scalar potentials associated with a slow-wave electromagnetic structure. By preceding and following this interaction with appropriate dispersion, characteristic of a solution to the time-dependent Schrödinger equation, a system results that is capable of magnifying (i.e., stretching or compressing the space- and time-scales) and time-reversing an arbitrary quantum wavefunction.

description: Deuterium fractionation is known to enhance the [DCO+]/[HCO+] abundance ratio over the D/H elemental ratio of about 1e-5 in the cold and dense gas typically found in pre-stellar cores. We report the first detection and mapping of very bright DCO+ J=3-2 and J=2-1 lines (3 and 4 K respectively) towards the Horsehead photodissociation region (PDR) observed with the IRAM-30m telescope. The DCO+ emission peaks close to the illuminated warm edge of the nebula (< 50" or about 0.1 pc away). Detailed nonlocal, non-LTE excitation and radiative transfer analyses have been used to determine the prevailing physical conditions and to estimate the DCO+ and H13CO+ abundances from their line intensities. A large [DCO+]/[HCO+] abundance ratio (>= 0.02) is inferred at the DCO+ emission peak, a condensation shielded from the illuminating far-UV radiation field where the gas must be cold (10-20 K) and dense (>= 2x10^5 cm-3). DCO+ is not detected in the warmer photodissociation front, implying a lower [DCO+]/[HCO+] ratio (< 1e-3). According to our gas phase chemical predictions, such a high deuterium fractionation of HCO+ can only be explained if the gas temperature is below 20 K, in good agreement with DCO+ excitation calculations.

O relato de caso, trás como tema o ofidismo, refere-se a paciente do sexo masculino, vítima de acidente ofídico, por serpente da família Viperidae do gênero Bothrops conhecida como jararacuçu (jararaca). O paciente evoluiu para duas amputações, inicialmente amputação do pé esquerdo, e posteriormente amputação transtibial esquerda. Atualmente, o paciente é acompanhado pela Estratégia de Saúde da Família (ESF) do município o qual reside em Santa Fé do Araguaia- TO, conjuntamente com o Centro Estadual de Reabilitação (CER) em Araguaína- TO em decorrência das complicações e sequela. Este relato de caso possui como objetivo discutir sobre o ofidismo, ressaltar a importância da equipe de enfermagem nesse contexto, informar e alertar a população em relação aos acidentes com serpentes peçonhentas, orientar quanto aos cuidados necessários a serem seguidos diante desse tipo de acidente e seu prognóstico aos grupos mais susceptíveis e a reabilitação de sequela especialmente a amputação. Trata-se de um estudo de coleta de dados feito através de informações obtidas por meio do prontuário do paciente. Para a construção do presente artigo, fez-se a análise de trabalhos científicos presentes no Google acadêmico, Scielo, site e manuais do Ministério da Saúde, plataforma do SINAN-Sistema de Informação de Agravos de Notificação. Resultado e Discussão: Considerando o grau de complexidade do paciente e sua evolução negativa, foram elencadas informações sobre esse tipo de acidente, diagnósticos e intervenções de enfermagem que podem nortear profissionais em suas condutas referentes ao acidente ofídico. Vale ressaltar que dar continuidade aos cuidados necessários após ser vítima desse tipo de acidente é de suma importância para a manutenção da saúde, reabilitação e prevenção de novas complicações.

description: Since gravitational waves (GWs) propagate freely through a perfect fluid, coalescing compact binary systems as standard sirens allow to measure the luminosity distance directly and provide distance measurements unaffected by the cosmic opacity. DECi-hertz Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (DECIGO) is a future Japanese space gravitational-wave antenna sensitive to frequency range between target frequencies of LISA and ground-based detectors. Combining the predicted future GW observations from DECIGO and three current popular astrophysical probes (HII regions, SNe Ia Pantheon sample, quasar sample) in electromagnetic (EM) domains, one would be able to probe the opacity of the Universe at different redshifts. In this paper, we show that the cosmic opacity parameter can be constrained to a high precision ($Δε\sim 10^{-2}$) out to high redshifts ($z\sim$5). In order to reconstruct the evolution of cosmic opacity without assuming any particular functional form of it, the cosmic opacity tests should be applied to individual redshift bins independently. Therefore, we also calculate the optical depth at individual redshifts and averaged $τ(z)$ within redshift bins. Our findings indicate that, compared with the results obtained from the HII galaxies and Pantheon SNe Ia, there is an improvement in precision when the quasar sample is considered. While non-zero optical depth is statistically significant only for redshift ranges $0

description: Asteroid surfaces are subjected to mechanical weathering processes that result in the development and evolution of regolith. Two proposed mechanisms--impact bombardment and thermal fatigue--have been proposed as viable and dominant weathering processes. Previously, we compiled and estimated thermal inertias of several hundred asteroids (mostly in the main-belt) for which we determined dependencies on temperature, diameter, and rotation period. In this work, we estimate grain sizes of asteroid regoliths from this large thermal inertia dataset using thermal conductivity models. Following our previous work we perform multi-variate linear model fits to the grain size dataset and quantify its dependency on diameter and rotation period. We find that the best-fit model fit indicates that asteroid grain sizes are inversely dependent on object size for <10 km asteroids and exhibits no relationship above this size cutoff. Rotation period and grain size show a positive relationship when the rotation period is greater than ~5 hr, and an inverse relationship below this rotation period. We conclude that both impact weathering and thermal fatigue are significant regolith evolution mechanisms. Furthermore, we run post-hoc t-tests between spectral groups to identify compositional differences among our asteroid set. Notably, suspected metal-rich, M-type and E-type asteroids have larger than expected grain sizes, and P-types have distinctly smaller grains than other groups
