Island Land Loss in the Chesapeake Bay: A Quantitative and Process Analysis
Creators: name: Wray, Rachel Donham
Publisher: name: Digital Repository at the University of Maryland
Year: 1992

description: The rates and processes of land loss were studied for seven islands in the Chesapeake Bay: Barren, Bloodsworth, Hooper, James, Poplar, Smith and South Marsh Islands. Rates and patterns of land loss were quantified for the years 1848 to 1987 with the Metric Mapping technique which utilizes digitized data from historical maps and vertical aerial photographs. Processes of land loss were determined through field surveys and correlated with environmental factors. Two distinct island types were identified which exhibited different, long-term patterns of land loss. Small, upland islands, termed the Northern Group, showed rapid land loss along the main stem of the Bay primarily due to wave action driven by the predominant westerly winds. Land loss appeared to accelerate during periods of high storm frequency. The long-term averaged land loss rate for Northern Group islands is 1.9 ha/yr. The averaged erosion rate on the western side of the islands is 4.9 m/yr, compared to 0.68 m/yr on the eastern side of the islands. In contrast, the large, marshy islands of the Southern Group experienced uniform marsh edge erosion and interior marsh degradation. The Southern Group islands lost land at an averaged rate of 5. 6 ha/yr, with an averaged rate of marsh edge erosion of 1.2 m/yr. Land loss appeared to be weakly correlated to storm frequency. Interior marsh loss was not quantified for this study, however, so this study provides an underestimation of total land loss of coastal wetlands.

description: It is common in epidemiology and clinical research to take repeat measurements of a marker (for example blood pressure) while observing the time course to an event (for example heart attack). This thesis focuses on novel statistical models for joint analysis of these two sources of information on a person's health. The research contributes to the uptake of these models in three ways. First, by extending the underlying methodology. Second, through the development of new software for fitting the models. Third, by demonstrating how the models can be used to answer important health research questions in separate studies of weight trajectories in patients with end stage kidney disease and impacts of natural disasters on multiple health conditions.

description: Abstract

Growing interest has been shown in the application of partnering in the construction industry in recent years. The shift in structural, behavioral & cultural norms leading to mutual trust and understanding is essential to every successful partnering effort. According to literature, effective organizational structure has the power to mould and reflect cultural and behavioral traits. In order to address the intricate linkages between behavior and culture in large-scale partnering initiatives, this article provide guidance how to investigates influence of effectiveness of organizational structure and it's administration. For this to happen, complicated human conduct must be comprehended, interpreted, explained, and mapped. Consequently, it is critical to understand and apply an effective research approach in order to meticulously gather pertinent data. This study argues that the positivism perspective is appropriate ways to tackle the behavioral and cultural issues of complex interactions in construction partnering. In order to defend the choice of an acceptable research philosophy and research technique, the layered approach is employed, stressing the key aspects of the arguments.

description: Classical solutions of equations of motion in low energy effective field theory, describing fundamental charged heterotic string, are found. These solutions automatically carry an electric current equal to the charge per unit length, and hence are accompanied by both, electric and magnetic fields. Force between two parallel strings vanish due to cancellation between electric and magnetic forces, and also between graviton, dilaton, and antisymmetric tensor field induced forces. Multi-string solutions describing configuration of parallel strings are also found. Finally, the solutions are shown to possess partially broken space-time supersymmetry.

description: Kronecker graphs, obtained by repeatedly performing the Kronecker product of the adjacency matrix of an "initiator" graph with itself, have risen in popularity in network science due to their ability to generate complex networks with real-world properties. In this paper, we explore spatial search by continuous-time quantum walk on Kronecker graphs. Specifically, we give analytical proofs for quantum search on first-, second-, and third-order Kronecker graphs with the complete graph as the initiator, showing that search takes Grover's $O(\sqrt{N})$ time. Numerical simulations indicate that higher-order Kronecker graphs with the complete initiator also support optimal quantum search.

description: Semiconductor photocatalysis often leads to partial or complete mineralization of organic pollutants. Upon irradiation with UV/visible light, semiconductors catalyze redox reactions in presence of air/O2 and water. Here, the potential of a common semiconductor, ZnO, has been explored as an effective catalyst for the photodegradation of textile effluent. The effects of process parameters like, catalyst loading, initial dye concentration and pH on the extent of photo degradation have been investigated. It is difficult to give a general picture of the kinetics using these wastewaters but the process was found to be quite effective for the decolourization of textile waste water. In this work, a detailed investigation was done on photocatalytic degradation for selected textile effluent. The ZnO nano particle was synthesized by using fuel urea by solution combustion method. This nano particle was characterized by using X-ray diffraction (XRD), Scanning Electron Micrograph (SEM) and UV absorbance spectroscopy. The average size was found to be 41 nm. The band gap of the nano particle was found to be 3.2 eV and was tested for the photocatalytic degradation by varying parameters such as catalyst concentration, pH and dye concentration. Also, the efficiency of the synthesized nano particle was compared with the procured TiO2 of size < 25 nm.

We present evidence for giant axial magnetic fields and map out for the first time the spatial distribution of these fields. By using the axial magnetic field distribution as a diagnostic tool we uncover evidence for angular momentum associated with the plasma. We believe this study holds significance for investigating the process under which a magnetic material magnetizes or demagnetizes under the influence of ultrashort intense laser pulses.

We classify irreducible SW(m)-modules and discuss logarithmic modules. We also compute bosonic and fermionic formulas of irreducible SW(m) characters. Finally, we contemplate possible connections between the category of SW(m)-modules and the category of modules for the quantum group U^{small}_q(sl_2), q=e^{\frac{2 πi}{2m+1}}, by focusing primarily on properties of characters and the Zhu's algebra A(SW(m)).

description: Magnetic nanoparticles (NPs) of nickel-cobalt ferrite (Cox Ni1-xFe2 O4 ; x = 0.0, 0.5, 1.0) were synthesized by co-precipitation route. The chemicals used were nickel chloride, cobalt chloride, ferric chloride, sodium hydroxide, and oleic acid. Sodium hydroxide was used as the precipitating agent and oleic acid was used as the surfactant. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed the formation of single phase nickel-cobalt ferrite nanoparticles in the size range 12-20 nm. The obtained size of the nanoparticles is depending on the variation of different reaction parameters during the reaction and annealing time and temperature after the reaction. Hysteresis loops of the samples confirmed the magnetic characteristics of the prepared (Cox Ni1-xFe2 O4 ; x = 0.0, 0.5, 1.0) nanoparticles.

description: We discuss a very simple model of a 1-d disordered lattice, in which {\em all} the electronic eigenstates are extended. The nature of these states is examined from several viewpoints, and it is found that the eigenfunctions are not Bloch functions although they extend throughout the chain. Some typical wavefunctions are plotted. This problem originated in our earlier study of extended states in the quasiperiodic copper-mean lattice [ Sil, Karmakar, Moitra and Chakrabarti, Phys. Rev. B (1993) ]. In the present investigation extended states are found to arise from a different kind of correlation than that of the well-known dimer-type.

description: Trivial Andreev bound states arising from chemical potential variations could lead to zero-bias tunneling conductance peaks at finite magnetic fields in class $D$ nanowires, precisely mimicking the predicted zero-bias conductance peaks arising from the topological Majorana bound states. This finding raises a serious question on the efficacy of using zero-bias tunneling conductance peaks, by themselves, as evidence supporting the existence of topological Majorana bound states in nanowires. In the current work, we provide specific experimental protocols for tunneling spectroscopy measure- ments to distinguish between Andreev and Majorana bound states without invoking more demand- ing nonlocal measurements which have not yet been successfully performed in nanowire systems. In particular, we discuss three distinct experimental schemes involving response of the zero-bias peak to local perturbations of the tunnel barrier, overlap of bound states from the wire ends, and most compellingly, introducing a sharp localized potential in the wire itself to perturb the zero-bias tun- neling peaks. We provide extensive numerical simulations clarifying and supporting our theoretical predictions.

description: We give canonical matrices of a pair (A,B) consisting of a nondegenerate form B and a linear operator A satisfying B(Ax,Ay)=B(x,y) on a vector space over F in the following cases: (i) F is an algebraically closed field of characteristic different from 2 or a real closed field, and B is symmetric or skew-symmetric; (ii) F is an algebraically closed field or the skew field of quaternions over a real closed field, and B is Hermitian or skew-Hermitian with respect to any nonidentity involution on F. We use a method that admits to reduce the problem of classifying an arbitrary system of forms and linear mappings to the problem of classifying representations of some quiver. This method was described in [V.V. Sergeichuk, Math. USSR-Izv. 31 (1988) 481-501].

description: We investigate whether storing baseballs in a controlled humidity environment significantly affects their aerodynamic properties. To do this, we measure the change in diameter and mass of baseballs as a function of relative humidity (RH) in which the balls are stored. We then model trajectories for pitched and batted baseballs to assess the difference between those stored at 30% RH versus 50% RH. The results show that a drier baseball may be expected to curve slightly more than a humidified one for a given pitch velocity. We also find that the aerodynamics alone would add ~2 feet to the distance a moister ball is hit. However, this is compensated by a ~6 foot reduction in batted distance due to the well known change in coefficient of restitution of the ball. We discuss consequences of these results for baseball played at Coors Field in Denver, where baseballs have been stored in a humidor at 50% RH since 2002.

description: Since its first synthesis one decade ago, graphene has been gaining a lot of interest among the academia and industry, not only due to its amazing properties, but also because it was the first two dimensional material ever isolated, and that could open the door to many others. In such context, an unprecedented campaign started to point graphene as the clue material for next generation devices, and journalists often created a magical aura referring to it as the wonder and the miracle material. All together let graphene rapidly raise tones of public and private funding, as well as the interest of many journals, a combination that dragged a countless amount of scientists. During some years, working with graphene was a synonym of money and high impact factor papers and, as any other hot topic, it ensured many citations.

Input-output theory for superconducting and photonic circuits that contain weak retro-reflections and other weak pseudo-cavities

description: Input-output theory is invaluable for treating superconducting and photonic circuits connected by transmission lines or waveguides. However, this theory cannot in general handle situations in which retro-reflections from circuit components or configurations of beam-splitters create loops for the traveling-wave fields that connect the systems. Here, building upon the network-contraction theory of Gough and James [Commun. Math. Phys. 287, 1109 (2009)], we provide a compact and powerful method to treat any circuit that contains such loops so long as the effective cavities formed by the loops are sufficiently weak. Essentially all present-day on-chip superconducting and photonic circuits will satisfy this weakness condition so long as the reflectors that form the loops are not especially highly reflecting. As an example we analyze the problem of transmitting entanglement between two qubits connected by a transmission line with imperfect circulators, a problem for which the new method is essential. We obtain a full solution for the optimal receiver given that the sender employs a simple turn on/turn off. This solution shows that near-perfect transmission is possible even with significant retro-reflections.

description: We theoretically investigate intermodulation distortion in high-Tc superconductors. We study the effect of nonmagnetic impurities on the real and imaginary parts of nonlinear conductivity. The nonlinear conductivity is proportional to the inverse of temperature owing to the dependence of the damping effect on energy, which arises from the phase shift deviating from the unitary limit. It is shown that the final-states interaction makes the real part predominant over the imaginary part. These effects have not been included in previous theories based on the two-fluid model, enabling a consistent explanation for the experiments with the rf and dc fields.

description: Aim: Cilnidipine is a dihydropyridine calcium channel blocker (CCB) that blocks both L-type and N- type channels at the smooth muscle in the artery and calcium channels at the presynaptic nerve terminal, respectively. It is dihydropyridine calcium antagonist that possesses a slow-onset, long-lasting vasodilating effect. The present study is designed to determine the effect of cilnidipine on creatinine clearance, thiobarbituric acid reactive substance, as an index of lipid peroxidation. Additionally, the level of superoxide dismutase enzyme in erythrocyte lysates and kidney catalase enzyme activitiy will be measured. Thirty-six albino rats are divided into 3 separate groups: rats of group 1 are control group, rats of group 2 are administered by deoxycorticosterone acetate (DOCA) salt sc twice/week + 1% NaCl for 2 weeks to be rendered hypertensive) and group 3 will receive 9 mg/kg cilnidipine for 3 weeks intragastrically after induction of hypertension by DOCA-salt as group 2. Results: DOCA-injected albino rats show marked reduction in creatinine clearance. Treatment with cilnidipine improves creatinine clearance compared to the non-treated hypertensive group 2. Additionally, it reduces thiobarbituric acid reactive substance, as an index of lipid peroxidation, with a significant increase in superoxide dismutase enzyme in erythrocyte lysates and kidney catalase enzyme activities. Conclusion: This study points to the possible beneficial renal protective effects of cilnidipine in hypertensive albino rats injected with DOCA for 2 weeks.

description: Magnetoresistance of Au-Ni-Aunanowire with 300 nm long nickel segment sandwiched between the gold segmentsis studied. Structural analysis of the sample is performed by X-ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy, which reveals the pure phase, crystalline behavior of the nanowires. Magnetic measurements of the samples confirm ferromagnetic behavior due to the presence of nickel in the wires. Current versus voltage measurement of single nanowire bridged between the two gold electrodes shows ohmic behavior at room temperature with a resistance of 73 Ω. Magnetoresistance as a function of the applied field shows a decreasing trend of resistance below 140 Oe, followed by an increasing trend in resistance in the field range 140 Oe250 Oe. The results have been explained with reference to the variation of magneto-resistance upon the alignment of spins, formation of magnetic domains and their propagation along the direction of magnetic field.

description: We report on the first measurement of 39Ar in argon from underground natural gas reservoirs. The gas stored in the US National Helium Reserve was found to contain a low level of 39Ar. The ratio of 39Ar to stable argon was found to be <=4x10-17 (84% C.L.), less than 5% the value in atmospheric argon (39Ar/Ar=8x10-16). The total quantity of argon currently stored in the National Helium Reserve is estimated at 1000 tons. 39Ar represents one of the most important backgrounds in argon detectors for WIMP dark matter searches. The findings reported demonstrate the possibility of constructing large multi-ton argon detectors with low radioactivity suitable for WIMP dark matter searches.

description: The elastic scattering between dark matter particles and radiation represents an attractive possibility to solve a number of discrepancies between observations and standard cold dark matter predictions, as the induced collisional damping would imply a suppression of small-scale structures. We consider this scenario and confront it with measurements of the ionization history of the Universe at several redshifts and with recent estimates of the counts of Milky Way satellite galaxies. We derive a conservative upper bound on the dark matter-photon elastic scattering cross section of $σ_{γ\rm{DM}} < 8 \times 10^{-10} \, σ_T \, \left(m_{\rm DM}/{\rm GeV}\right)$ at $95\%$~CL, about one order of magnitude tighter than previous {constraints from satellite number counts}. Due to the strong degeneracies with astrophysical parameters, the bound on the dark matter-photon scattering cross section derived here is driven by the estimate of the number of Milky Way satellite galaxies. Finally, we also argue that future 21~cm probes could help in disentangling among possible non-cold dark matter candidates, such as interacting and warm dark matter scenarios. Let us emphasize that bounds of similar magnitude to the ones obtained here could be also derived for models with dark matter-neutrino interactions and would be as constraining as the tightest limits on such scenarios.

description: Recent trends in pharmaceutical industry are development of coating methods which overcomes the various disadvantages associated with solvent based coatings. Water insoluble polymers have largely superseded the use of organic solvents for applying coatings. Aqueous polymer dispersions (APD) are preferred on environmental and safety grounds. APD offer several advantages over polymers dissolved in organic solvents including lower spraying viscosities, higher solids loading, higher spray rates, no solvent environmental, toxicity, or flammability issues, and reduced energy requirements relative to Aqueous polymer solutions. There are a wide range of water insoluble polymers includes Acrylates: Eudragit, Cellulose: Ethyl cellulose, Vinylics: Polyvinyl acetate phthalate, Cellulosic esters: cellulose acetate phthalate (CAP) & many more which provide a great research platform to develop an Aqueous polymeric dispersion (APD). This article is mainly concerned with the theoretical & practical aspects of the techniques/steps & research scope for the development of APD.

Transmutation of Pure 2-D Supergravity Into Topological 2-D Gravity and Other Conformal Theories

description: We consider the BRST and superconformal properties of the ghost action of 2-D supergravity. Using the background spin structure on the worldsheet, we show that this action can be transformed by canonical field transformations to reach other conformal models such as the 2-D topological gravity or the chiral models for which the gauge variation of the action reproduces the left or right conformal anomaly. Our method consists in using the gravitino and its ghost as fundamental blocks to build fields with different conformal weights and statistics. This indicates in particular that the twisting of a conformal model into another one can be classically interpreted as a change of "field representation" of the superconformal symmetry.

Spiritual practices and mental well-being: A quantitative study among university students
Creators: name: Pazer, Sora
Publisher: name: figshare
Year: 2024
Subjects: classificationCode: 520505
subject: Social psychology

description: This study explores the role of spiritual practices in promoting mental well-being among university students. The research focuses on key areas such as stress management, resilience, emotional balance, and finding meaning in life. A quantitative survey was conducted with 134 students from various disciplines, and the results indicate that spiritual practices can provide significant mental health benefits. Gender and age differences were observed, with women generally reporting higher emotional benefits from spirituality and older students finding greater meaning in life through spiritual engagement. The findings highlight the importance of a personalized approach to mental health support, recognizing that spirituality may not be universally effective for all students. The discussion emphasizes the need for diverse mental health interventions that incorporate both spiritual and non-spiritual strategies to cater to individual needs.
Parity Anomaly and Duality Web

description: We review the parity anomaly and a duality web in 2+1 dimensions. An odd dimensional non-interacting Dirac fermion theory is not parity invariant at quantum level. We demonstrate the parity anomaly in a three dimensional non-interacting Dirac fermion theory and a one dimensional non-interacting Dirac fermion theory. These theories can generate non-gauge invariant Abelian Chern-Simons terms at a finite temperature through an effective action. The parity anomaly also leads us to study the duality web in 2+1 dimensions, in which the 2+1 dimensional duality web begins from the conjecture of a duality between a three dimensional Dirac fermion theory and a three dimensional interacting scalar field theory at the Wilson-Fisher fixed point. We first review the duality web for the flat background, then we discuss its extension to the spin$_c$ manifold to avoid inconsistency from the spin structure. This also leads a global effect. We discuss that the composite fermions approach of the quantum Hall system also suffers from the same issue of the global description. Finally, we use perspective of the electric-magnetic duality of the Abelian gauge theory in 3+1 dimensions to study the 2+1 dimensional duality web.

description: We analyze $\sim$32 years of optical spectra and photometry for the symbiotic binary PU Vul. Light curves for the He I $λ$4471, He II $λ$4686 and H$β$ $λ$4861 emission lines reveal an illumination effect, where the hot white dwarf ionizes the outflowing wind of the red giant, and evidence for an eccentric orbit with e $\approx$ 0.16. Along with the gradual appearance of high ionization emission from [Fe VII] and O VI, the relative fluxes of these lines suggest an increase in the effective temperature of the hot component, from roughly $10^5$ K on JD 2448000 (1990) to roughly $2\times 10^5$ K on JD 2455000 (2009). During this period, the luminosity of the hot component dropped by a factor of 4$-$6 to a current value of roughly 1000 L$_{\odot}$.

COMPETENCE IN USING INFORMATION AND COMMUNICATION MEANS IN FUTURE EDUCATION
Creators: name: Avezov, Davronbek
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: This article describes preliminary practical activities to improve the competence of future elementary school teachers in using information and communication tools. Also, in the conditions of global mass communication, the ability to analyze, systematize and interpret information has become the most valuable resource today, and in this context, several methods can help to form the competence of future elementary school teachers in using information and communication tools. It aims to teach teachers how to effectively use information and communication tools in the successful teaching and learning of students. Global informatization naturally affects the educational process. The main task of the educational system is to determine the modern trends of the development of the society and to introduce pedagogical technologies that form a positive experience and reflect modern social changes into the educational process, to bring the educational process into an orderly, controlled system. The purpose of the research is to find effective ways of demonstrating information activity, to create a model that will contribute to the development of competence in using information communication tools among future elementary school teachers on the educational bases of the mathematical cycle.
Self-consistent quasiparticle RPA for multi-level pairing model

Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Particle-number projection within the Lipkin-Nogami (LN) method is applied to the self-consistent quasiparticle random-phase approximation (SCQRPA), which is tested in an exactly solvable multi-level pairing model. The SCQRPA equations are numerically solved to find the energies of the ground and excited states at various numbers $Ω$ of doubly degenerate equidistant levels. The use of the LN method allows one to avoid the collapse of the BCS (QRPA) to obtain the energies of the ground and excited states as smooth functions of the interaction parameter $G$. The comparison between results given by different approximations such as the SCRPA, QRPA, LNQRPA, SCQRPA and LNSCQRPA is carried out. While the use of the LN method significantly improves the agreement with the exact results in the intermediate coupling region, we found that in the strong coupling region the SCQRPA results are closest to the exact ones.

Perturbing AdS$_6 \times_w S^4$: linearised equations and spin-2 spectrum

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

description: We initiate the analysis of the Kaluza--Klein mass spectrum of massive IIA supergravity on the warped AdS$_6 \times_w S^4$ background, by deriving the linearised equations of motion of bosonic and fermionic fluctuations, and determining the mass spectrum of those of spin-2. The spin-2 modes are given in terms of hypergeometric functions and a careful analysis of their boundary conditions uncovers the existence of two branches of mass spectra, bounded from below. The modes that saturate the bounds belong to short multiplets which we identify in the representation theory of the $\mathfrak{f}(4)$ symmetry superalgebra of the AdS$_6 \times_w S^4$ solution.

description: Specific heat, magnetic susceptibility and electrical transport measurements were performed at ambient pressure on high-quality single crystal specimens of CeRhIn5 down to ultra-low temperatures. We report signatures of an anomaly observed in all measured quantities consistent with a bulk phase transition to a superconducting state at T_c=110 mK. Occurring far below the onset of antiferromagnetism at T_N=3.8 K, this transition appears to involve a significant portion of the available low-temperature density of electronic states, exhibiting an entropy change in line with that found in other members of the 115 family of superconductors tuned away from quantum criticality.

description: The story of metallurgy is a story of civilisation. Physical metallurgy concerns the fundamentals and applications of phase transformations: the process in which atoms arrange themselves from one structure to another. Al-Ag alloys have served as a textbook system for understanding the solid-state phase transformations. Using transmission electron microscopy and atomistic calculations, Zezhong found a new precipitate phase, zeta (AgAl), in this classical system. In-situ microscopy and electron tomography revealed phase transformations in time and space. Zezhong illustrated the importance of defects and interfaces, and how to use them to tailor the precipitation behaviour.
