description: We demonstrate that 100% light absorption can take place in a single patterned sheet of doped graphene. General analysis shows that a planar array of small lossy particles exhibits full absorption under critical-coupling conditions provided the cross section of each individual particle is comparable to the area of the lattice unit-cell. Specifically, arrays of doped graphene nanodisks display full absorption when supported on a substrate under total internal reflection, and also when lying on a dielectric layer coating a metal. Our results are relevant for infrared light detectors and sources, which can be made tunable via electrostatic doping of graphene.

description: We have detected new HD absorption systems at high redshifts, z_abs=2.626 and z_abs=1.777, identified in the spectra of the quasars J0812+3208 and Q1331+170, respectively. Each of these systems consists of two subsystems. The HD column densities have been determined: log(N(HD),A)=15.70+/-0.07 for z_A=2.626443(2) and log(N(HD),B)=12.98+/-0.22 for z_B=2.626276(2) in the spectrum of J0812+3208 and log(N(HD),C)=14.83+/-0.15 for z_C=1.77637(2) and log(N(HD),D)=14.61+/-0.20 for z_D=1.77670(3) in the spectrum of Q1331+170. The measured HD/H2 ratio for three of these subsystems has been found to be considerably higher than its values typical of clouds in our Galaxy. We discuss the problem of determining the primordial deuterium abundance, which is most sensitive to the baryon density of the Universe Ω_{b}. Using a well-known model for the chemistry of a molecular cloud, we have estimated the isotopic ratio D/H=HD/2H_2=(2.97+/-0.55)x10^{-5} and the corresponding baryon density Ω_{b}h^2=0.0205^{+0.0025}_{-0.0020}. This value is in good agreement with Ω_{b}h^2=0.0226^{+0.0006}_{-0.0006} obtained by analyzing the cosmic microwave background radiation anisotropy. However, in high-redshift clouds, under conditions of low metallicity and low dust content, hydrogen may be incompletely molecularized even in the case of self-shielding. In this situation, the HD/2H_2 ratio may not correspond to the actual D/H isotopic ratio. We have estimated the cloud molecularization dynamics and the influence of cosmological evolutionary effects on it.

Constructing hydrogels from engineered protein
Creators: name: Kong, Na
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: Hydrogels are crosslinked polymer networks that absorb large amounts of aqueous solutions. The varieties of hydrogel building blocks include natural polymers, synthetic polymers and genetically engineered proteins. This dissertation will discuss the latest progress of hydrogels constructed from genetically engineered proteins (recombinant proteins), mainly focusing on biorecognition-driven physical hydrogels as well as chemically crosslinked hydrogels. Examples include dynamic hydrogels and designing hydrogels via protein fragments reconstitution. The first class of studies presented in this dissertation involves the use of molecular level processes to control macroscopic mechanical properties. A novel protein hydrogel is reported showing dynamic mechanical properties based on a redox potential controlled protein folding-unfolding switch, which is constructed from a designed mutually exclusive protein. The changes of the mechanical and physical properties of this hydrogel are fully reversible and can be applied as extracellular matrix to investigate cell response upon varying stiffness. In addition, another powerful method, metal chelation, is reported to tune the conformational change of mutually exclusive protein, which can stabilize the domain, initiate the folding switch and further affect the mechanical properties of resultant hydrogel. In the second class of studies, protein fragment reconstitution has been demonstrated as a novel driving force for engineering self-assembling reversible protein hydrogels. Protein fragment reconstitution, also known as fragment complementation, is a self-assembling mechanism by which protein fragments can reconstitute the folded conformation of the native protein when split into two halves. GL5 is a small peotein, which is capable of fragment reconstitution spontaneously when split into two halves, GN and GC. Using GL5 as a model, different building blocks are designed to engineer self-assembling, physically crosslinked protein hydrogels. These novel hydrogels show temperature-dependent reversible sol-gel transition, and excellent property against erosion in water. It is anticipated that such fragment reconstitution may offer a general driving force for engineering protein hydrogels from a variety of proteins, expanding the horizon of “bottom-up” approaches in the design principles of biomaterials.

description: The long-term dynamics of Oort cloud comets are studied under the influence of both the radial and the vertical components of the Galactic tidal field. Sporadic dynamical perturbation processes are ignored, such as passing stars, since we aim to study the influence of just the axisymmetric Galactic tidal field on the cometary motion and how it changes in time. We use a model of the Galaxy with a disc, bulge and dark halo, and a local disc density, and disc scale length constrained to fit the best available observational constraints. By integrating a few million of cometary orbits over 1 Gyr, we calculate the time variable flux of Oort cloud comets that enter the inner Solar System, for the cases of a constant Galactic tidal field, and a realistically varying tidal field which is a function of the Sun's orbit. The applied method calculates the evolution of the comets by using first-order averaged mean elements. We find that the periodicity in the cometary flux is complicated and quasi-periodic. The amplitude of the variations in the flux are of order 30%. The radial motion of the Sun is the chief cause of this behaviour, and should be taken into account when the Galactic influence on the Oort cloud comets is studied.

description: We observed diffuse cosmic and atmospheric gamma rays at balloon altitudes with the Sub-MeV gamma-ray Imaging Loaded-on-balloon Experiment I (SMILE-I) as the first step toward a future all-sky survey with a high sensitivity. SMILE-I employed an electron-tracking Compton camera comprised of a gaseous electron tracker as a Compton-scattering target and a scintillation camera as an absorber. The balloon carrying the SMILE-I detector was launched from the Sanriku Balloon Center of the Institute of Space and Astronomical Science/Japan Space Exploration Agency on September 1, 2006, and the flight lasted for 6.8 hr, including level flight for 4.1 hr at an altitude of 32-35 km. During the level flight, we successfully detected 420 downward gamma rays between 100 keV and 1 MeV at zenith angles below 60 degrees. To obtain the flux of diffuse cosmic gamma rays, we first simulated their scattering in the atmosphere using Geant4, and for gamma rays detected at an atmospheric depth of 7.0 g cm-2, we found that 50% and 21% of the gamma rays at energies of 150 keV and 1 MeV, respectively, were scattered in the atmosphere prior to reaching the detector. Moreover, by using Geant4 simulations and the QinetiQ atmospheric radiation model, we estimated that the detected events consisted of diffuse cosmic and atmospheric gamma rays (79%), secondary photons produced in the instrument through the interaction between cosmic rays and materials surrounding the detector (19%), and other particles (2%). The obtained growth curve was comparable to Ling's model, and the fluxes of diffuse cosmic and atmospheric gamma rays were consistent with the results of previous experiments. The expected detection sensitivity of a future SMILE experiment measuring gamma rays between 150 keV and 20 MeV was estimated from our SMILE-I results and was found to be ten times better than that of other experiments at around 1 MeV.

description: Observational studies of galaxy isophotal shapes have shown that galaxy orientations are anisotropic: a galaxy's long axis tends to be oriented toward the center of its host. This radial alignment is seen across a wide range of scales, from galaxies in massive clusters to small Milky Way type satellite systems. Recently, this effect has also been detected in dark matter simulations of cosmological structure, but the degree of alignment of dark matter substructures in these studies is significantly stronger than seen in observations. In this paper we attempt to reconcile these two results by performing high-resolution numerical experiments on N-body multi-component models of triaxial galaxies orbiting in an external analytical potential. The large number of particles employed allows us to probe deep into the inner structure of the galaxy: we show that the discrepancy between observed galaxies and simulated dark matter halos is a natural consequence of induced radial shape twisting in the galaxy by the external potential. The degree of twisting depends strongly on the orbital phase and eccentricity of the satellite, and it can, under certain conditions, be significant at radii smaller than the dark matter scale radius. Such internal misalignments will have important consequences, both for the dynamical evolution of the galaxy itself, and for mass modeling of galaxies in clustered environments.

Multi-copy and stochastic transformation of multipartite pure states

description: Characterizing the transformation and classification of multipartite entangled states is a basic problem in quantum information. We study the problem under two most common environments, local operations and classical communications (LOCC), stochastic LOCC and two more general environments, multi-copy LOCC (MCLOCC) and multi-copy SLOCC (MCSLOCC). We show that two transformable multipartite states under LOCC or SLOCC are also transformable under MCLOCC and MCSLOCC. What's more, these two environments are equivalent in the sense that two transformable states under MCLOCC are also transformable under MCSLOCC, and vice versa. Based on these environments we classify the multipartite pure states into a few inequivalent sets and orbits, between which we build the partial order to decide their transformation. In particular, we investigate the structure of SLOCC-equivalent states in terms of tensor rank, which is known as the generalized Schmidt rank. Given the tensor rank, we show that GHZ states can be used to generate all states with a smaller or equivalent tensor rank under SLOCC, and all reduced separable states with a cardinality smaller or equivalent than the tensor rank under LOCC. Using these concepts, we extended the concept of "maximally entangled state" in the multi-partite system.

But Hartree-Fock calculations have no such prob- lem, producing negative HOMO energies. A recently proposed scheme for calculating DFT energies on HF densities is shown to work very well for molecules, better than the common practice of restricting the basis set, except for cases like CN, where the HF density is too inaccurate due to spin contamination.

This species is not previously recorded from Guatemala or the Yucatan Peninsula; it has been known only from the type locality in Jalisco, Mexico. The excellent color preservation on this male, superior to that of the type male with which it has been compared, permits the following additions and corrections to the original description (Williamson and Williamson, 1930). The clypeus and frons are bluish green rather than brownish green; on either side of the T-spot on the dorsum of the frons, the color is pale blue as in G. tibiata Karsch, rather than clear green; the dorsoposterior angle of the metepimeron is brownish blue; metacostal process is pale blue; apical half of dorsum of abdominal segment 1 is blue rather than “light brown?”; the anterior third of abdominal segment 2 is brownish green except for a basal blue annulus, and as stated by the Williamsons, the posterior two-thirds is blue with brown stripes. The tubercle in the median line near the apex of the sternum of abdominal segment 1 bears a well-marked depression on the ventral surface, similar to that in G. tibiata.

Year: 2025

description: The article presents a comparative analysis of metonymy as a cognitive mechanism in Russian and Uzbek languages. Universal and nationally specific models of metonymic transfers are identified, and the cognitive functions of metonymy in conceptualizing reality are determined. Based on lexicographic sources and literary texts, the national-cultural specificity of metonymic transfers is established, conditioned by differences in the conceptualization of reality characteristic of Russian and Uzbek linguistic cultures. The research results confirm the position that metonymy is an important means of conceptualizing reality, reflecting both universal cognitive mechanisms and the national-cultural specificity of linguistic consciousness.

description: Most of the observed extrasolar planets are found on tight and often eccentric orbits. The high eccentricities are not easily explained by planet-formation models, which predict that planets should be on rather circular orbits. Here we explore whether fly-bys involving planetary systems with properties similar to those of the gas giants in the solar system, can produce planets with properties similar to the observed planets. Using numerical simulations, we show that fly-bys can cause the immediate ejection of planets, and sometimes also lead to the capture of one or more planets by the intruder. More common, however, is that fly-bys only perturb the orbits of planets, sometimes leaving the system in an unstable state. Over time-scales of a few million to several hundred million years after the fly-by, this perturbation can trigger planet-planet scatterings, leading to the ejection of one or more planets. For example, in the case of the four gas giants of the solar system, the fraction of systems from which at least one planet is ejected more than doubles in 10^8 years after the fly-by. The remaining planets are often left on more eccentric orbits, similar to the eccentricities of the observed extrasolar planets. We combine our results of how fly-bys effect solar-system-like planetary systems, with the rate at which encounters in young stellar clusters occur. For example, we measure the effects of fly-bys on the four gas giants in the solar system. We find, that for such systems, between 5 and 15 per cent suffer ejections of planets in 10^8 years after fly-bys in typical open clusters. Thus, encounters in young stellar clusters can significantly alter the properties of any planets orbiting stars in clusters. As a large fraction of stars which populate the solar neighbourhood form in stellar clusters, encounters can significantly affect the properties of the observed extrasolar planets.

Design of the Emkhiweni Suspended Footbridge In Eswatini, Africa: An Engineers In Action (EIA) Project
Creators: name: Grubb, Corrie

Publisher: name: Unknown
Year: 2023

description: This project involves the design a suspended pedestrian bridge in Eswatini, Africa. The 74.5-meter footbridge will link the communities of Kalashabane and Esphumlweni by crossing the Phophonyane river. The new structure will allow the communities to access essential resources year-round, eliminating the dangers associated with crossing the river during the rainy season. Engineers in Action (EIA) standards were utilized in creating two preliminary bridge design alternatives. For the chosen geometric layout, structural and geotechnical analyses have been performed; these checks ensure the safety of each bridge component, including the cables, crossbeams, decking, abutments, and anchors. Additionally, advanced design customization has allowed the team to accomplish a more economical design. The USI chapter of Engineers in Action is collaborating with assigned universities (McGill and Oregon State) in the design and the construction of the structure, which will occur in the summer of 2023. The plan set developed by the team will be utilized in the construction planning phase of the project, to be completed by other members of the EIA student chapters.

Social agent modeling and simulation : an aid to pre-adapting populations to serious societal disruptions
Creators: name: Conroy, Patrick Francis
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: Serious societal disruptions can be expected in our future, and policy makers need better tools to help populations pre-adapt to them, in particular tools that incorporate internal-subjective behavior drivers and the means by which to model the behaviors they create. The Intelligent Agent paradigm developed in the Computer Science discipline is a powerful technology that enables population modeling at the level of the individual, and could have by now been demonstrably useful in creating tools to support policy makers’ work on this challenge. However, the Rational Agent instantiation of this paradigm, the focus of most Intelligent Agent work to date, is unsuitable for modeling the behavior of real human populations in a major societal disruption, due to avoidance of the internal-subjective bases of human sociality and so-called ‘irrational’ behaviors, exactly those that will dominate decision-making in such disruptions. There is growing understanding of such behavior drivers at the level of detail needed to support the modeling of significant-size populations. We propose a Social Agent instantiation of the Intelligent Agent paradigm for bottom-up modeling that explicitly incorporates these drivers, and we analyze the results of an implementation of this model in ‘EnergyWorld’, an abstract simulation of population behavior when resources needed for well-being are abruptly, significantly and persistently made scarce. Formal validation and verification in this research are limited due to the lack quantitative data on the internal-subjective nature of human decision-making; instead, we argue that the credibility of comparative policy analysis based on differential model parameter sets makes this approach useful for scenario-based policy analysis as a complement to other tools. We believe this to be true even if the disruptions we expect do not arrive in the intensity or form that seem likely today.
Optical Cooling Using the Dipole Force

description: The term `laser cooling' is applied to the use of optical means to cool the motional energies of either atoms and molecules, or micromirrors. In the literature, these two strands are kept largely separate; both, however suffer from severe limitations. Laser cooling of atoms and molecules largely relies on the internal level structure of the species being cooled. As a result, only a small number of elements and a tiny number of molecules can be cooled this way. In the case of micromirrors, the problem lies in the engineering of micromirrors that need to satisfy a large number of constraints---these include a high mechanical Q-factor, high reflectivity and very good optical quality, weak coupling to the substrate, etc.---in order to enable efficient cooling. During the course of this thesis, I will draw these two sides of laser cooling closer together by means of a single, generically applicable scattering theory that can be used to explain the interaction between light and matter at a very general level. I use this `transfer matrix' formalism to explore the use of the retarded dipole--dipole interaction as a means of both enhancing the efficiency of micromirror cooling systems and rendering the laser cooling of atoms and molecules less species selective. In particular, I identify the `external cavity cooling' mechanism, whereby the use of an optical memory in the form of a resonant element (such as a cavity), outside which the object to be cooled sits, can potentially lead to the construction of fully integrated optomechanical systems and even two-dimensional arrays of translationally cold atoms, molecules or even micromirrors.

Reading apocalypse : ruptured temporality and the colonial landscape in Mary Shelley’s The Last Man
Creators: name: McGreevey, Morag Veronica
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: This thesis examines the process of reading in Mary Shelley’s novel The Last Man (1826). The novel illustrates a limiting conception of reading, as characters become bound to the futures that they consume via literature. However, there is a breach between the type of reading represented in the novel, and the model of reading that Shelley demands of her audience. By analysing the text’s competing aesthetics of ruin and artifice, I argue that Shelley advocates for a system of reading that recognizes the audience’s potential for agency and intervention. Just as Reinhart Kosseleck theorized that the post-French Revolution world marked a new sense of time, Neuzeit, which corresponded with the burgeoning era of modernity, Shelley advocates for a uniquely modern system of reading. By reading The Last Man in this way, the novel’s critique of imperialism expansion is transformed from a prophetic vision of the future into a practically actionable critique. There exists much scholarship concerning the novel’s criticism of England’s early-nineteenth century project of colonial expansion. Notably, critics like Paul Cantor, Alan Bewell and Siobhan Carroll have conceptualized the plague as a cosmopolitan imperial force, spreading disease just as late-Romantic explorers, politicians, and merchants spread ideas, bodies, plants, and consumer goods. Yet, Shelley’s critique of global interconnectivity extends beyond the plague to the world it leaves behind. Ecologically abundant and primed for human occupation, the post-apocalyptic world is deeply reminiscent of the early-nineteenth century ideal of colonial space. However, while late-Romantic imperialists conceived of these spaces as edenically new, Shelley writes a traumatic history explaining their emptiness. This narrative leaves readers as witnesses to humanity’s apocalyptic end. Only through a new system of critical readership can the audience distance itself from this annihilating future view to envision alternate futures for England.

description: There are two reasons not to consider the whole of an object. Either the object is global i.e. "big" : global warming, global human exchanges, etc. Or the relationship between the researcher and his object has qualitative constraints. What will be met, exchanged, perceived, described is only partial, made of "islands of knowledge". We describe the D&R method = dimensions & referentials. We make the point about multidisciplinary versus multi-referential. We take a didactic and appealing example with Cervantes' Don Quichote. We show how the method was used for a PhD dissertation.

description: We report the realization of a read-write device out of the ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As as the first step to fundamentally new information processing paradigm. Writing the magnetic state is achieved by current-induced switching and read-out of the state is done by the means of the tunneling anisotropic magneto resistance (TAMR) effect. This one bit demonstrator device can be used to design a electrically programmable memory and logic device.

description: Binaries are excellent astrophysical laboratories that provide us with direct measurements of fundamental stellar parameters. Compared to single isolated star, multiplicity induces new processes, offering the opportunity to confront our understanding of a broad range of physics under the extreme conditions found in, and close to, astrophysical objects. In this contribution, we will discuss the parameter space occupied by massive binaries, and the observational means to investigate it. We will review the multiplicity fraction of OB stars within each regime, and in different astrophysical environments. In particular we will compare the O star spectroscopic binary fraction in nearby open clusters and we will show that the current data are adequately described by an homogeneous fraction of f~0.44. We will also summarize our current understanding of the observed parameter distributions of O+OB spectroscopic binaries. We will show that the period distribution is overabundant in short period binaries and that it can be described by a bi-modal Oepik law with a break point around P~10d. The distribution of the mass-ratios shows no indication for a twin population of equal mass binaries and seems rather uniform in the range 0.2< q=M_2/M_1<1.0.

description: The transition metal based oxide YBaCo3FeO7 is structurally related to the mineral Swedenborgite SbNaBe4O7, a polar non-centrosymmetric crystal system. The magnetic Co3Fe sublattice consists of a tetrahedral network containing kagome-like layers with trigonal interlayer sites. This geometry causes frustration effects for magnetic ordering, which were investigated by magnetization measurements, Mössbauer spectroscopy, polarized neutron diffraction, and neutron spectroscopy. Magnetization measurement and neutron diffraction do not show long range ordering even at low temperature (1 K) although a strong antiferromagnetic coupling (~2000 K) is deduced from the magnetic susceptibility. Below 590 K, we observe two features, a spontaneous weak anisotropic magnetization hysteresis along the polar crystallographic axis and a hyperfine field on the Fe kagome sites, whereas the Fe spins on the interlayer sites remain idle. Below ~50 K, the onset of a hyperfine field shows the development of moments static on the Mössbauer time scale also for the Fe interlayer sites. Simultaneously, an increase of spin correlations is found by polarized neutron diffraction. The relaxation part of the dynamic response has been further investigated by high-resolution neutron spectroscopy, which reveals that the spin correlations start to freeze in below ~50 K. Monte Carlo simulations show that the neutron scattering results at lower temperatures are compatible with a recent proposal that the particular geometric frustration in the Swedenborgite structure promotes quasi one dimensional partial order.

description: Pesquisas científicas, são em regra, baseadas em estudos de dados. Com o advento da Lei 13.709/18, conhecida como a Lei Geral de Proteção de Dados Pessoais – LGPD, que entrou em vigor em 18 de setembro de 2020, inúmeras alterações no que se referem ao manuseio dos dados foram implementadas.  Desde sua publicação a LGPD se tornou alvo de polêmicas, já que em muitos casos prejudicou e restringiu, não só o acesso, mas também o manuseio dos dados, o que interfere diretamente nas pesquisas científicas. A lei, entretanto, prevê alternativas para atender estes casos, que ainda são pouco usadas e exploradas em âmbito acadêmico e judicial. Assim, este trabalho tem por objetivo identificar e analisar as principais questões éticas e legais que interferem no manuseio dos dados, especialmente em dados referentes à demografia e mercado de trabalho em enfermagem. Por fim, observou-se que as restrições ao acesso de dados têm origem preponderante na falta de experiência e conhecimento das alternativas da lei prevê para o tratamento, por parte dos controladores de dados, em razão não só do pouco tempo que a referida lei tem de vigência, mas por ainda ser um tema pouco explorado não só em âmbito acadêmico, mas também em decisões judiciais.

 

Scientific research is, as a rule, based on data studies. With the advent of Law 13.709/18, known as the General Data Protection Law – LGPD, which came into force on September 18, 2020, numerous changes regarding data handling were implemented. Since its publication, the LGPD has become the target of controversy since in many cases it has harmed and restricted not only access, but also but also the handling of data, which directly interferes with scientific research. The law, however, provides alternatives to meet these cases, which are still little used and explored in the academic and judicial spheres. Thus, this study aims to identify and analyze the main ethical and legal issues that interfere in the handling of data, especially in data related to demography and the nursing labor market. Finally, it was observed that the restrictions on data access have a preponderant origin in the lack of experience and knowledge of the alternatives the law provides for the processing, by data controllers, due not only to the short time that the referred law has been in force, but because it is still a topic little explored not only in the academic sphere, but also in judicial decisions.
