description: Paleogene succession; the Van Mijenfjorden Group. TSE 7: Paleogene – foreland basin. The up to 1.9 km thick Paleogene Van Mijenfjorden Group occurs in the CTB and consists of a Paleocene and an Eocene succession (Fig. a). The Paleocene succession consists of offshore shale (the Basilika Formation) and intercalated sandstone wedges of shallow marine and paralic origin (i.e., the Firkanten, Grumantbyen and Hollendardalen formations; Figs a and b). The paralic lower part of the Firkanten Formation (i.e., the Todalen Member) represents the most important coal-bearing unit in Svalbard. The abandoned Svea Nord mine in Van Mijenfjorden (Fig. b) experienced locally thickness of more than 5m pure coal. The current coal production in Mine 7, Adventdalen, extracts the Longyear seam which normally is thinner than 2m (Fig. c). The Eocene basin fill consists of a several hundred metres thick basin floor shale unit (the Frysjaodden Formation), which gradually passes upwards into shallow marine to deltaic sandstones (the Battfjellet Formation; Fig. d) and continental strata (the Aspelintoppen Formation; Fig. e), reflecting overall regressive conditions. Spectacular seismic-scale outcrops, such as the renown Storvola mountain display clinoforms which constitutes a characteristic and spectacular motif of the basin fill with laterally extensive shelf to slope and basin floor facies belts (Fig. f).

description: In this work, we aim at providing a consistent analysis of the dust properties from metal-poor to metal-rich environments by linking them to fundamental galactic parameters. We consider two samples of galaxies: the Dwarf Galaxy Survey (DGS) and KINGFISH, totalling 109 galaxies, spanning almost 2 dex in metallicity. We collect infrared (IR) to submillimetre (submm) data for both samples and present the complete data set for the DGS sample. We model the observed spectral energy distributions (SED) with a physically-motivated dust model to access the dust properties. Using a different SED model (modified blackbody), dust composition (amorphous carbon), or wavelength coverage at submm wavelengths results in differences in the dust mass estimate of a factor two to three, showing that this parameter is subject to non-negligible systematic modelling uncertainties. For eight galaxies in our sample, we find a rather small excess at 500 microns (< 1.5 sigma). We find that the dust SED of low-metallicity galaxies is broader and peaks at shorter wavelengths compared to more metal-rich systems, a sign of a clumpier medium in dwarf galaxies. The PAH mass fraction and the dust temperature distribution are found to be driven mostly by the specific star-formation rate, SSFR, with secondary effects from metallicity. The correlations between metallicity and dust mass or total-IR luminosity are direct consequences of the stellar mass-metallicity relation. The dust-to-stellar mass ratios of metal-rich sources follow the well-studied trend of decreasing ratio for decreasing SSFR. The relation is more complex for highly star-forming low-metallicity galaxies and depends on the chemical evolutionary stage of the source (i.e., gas-to-dust mass ratio). Dust growth processes in the ISM play a key role in the dust mass build-up with respect to the stellar content at high SSFR and low metallicity. (abridged)

Rethinking Images of Violence: Abounaddara and the Right to Dignity
Creators: name: Barber, Samuel
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: Abounaddara is a Syrian film collective working to circumvent dominant power structures that control representations of Syrians. The manifestos of the collective call for a rethinking of contemporary attitudes surrounding images of violence and furthermore demand a universal right to dignified representation. In this thesis, I explore the main philosophies in the collective’s papers and analyze how they interact with an ongoing academic discussion about images of violence, representation, and spectatorship. I then study the Abounaddara’s films as a vehicle of expression for the group’s philosophies. Selecting nine of the group’s works, I identify recurring themes, motifs, and formats within them while considering how these strategies reflect the goals of the collective. In particular, I discuss the manifestations of rituals, the everyday, and war as a peripheral or single part of the Syrian experience. Abounaddara provides an alternate conception of this experience that escapes the constant focus on images that represent solely through the lens of violence and victimization. This thesis aims to underline the collective’s active engagement in the struggle for dignified representation while encouraging a critical reconceptualization of images of suffering and violence within the modern world.

OPERAS Service Portfolio and Wider Opportunities

Subjects: Open Science

Collaboration

description: Due to several factors, such as the small size of resource providers, the historical underfunding, and lack of sustainability in the area
 of scholarly communication in social sciences and humanities, the variety of technical skills and resources across Europe is fragmented and not organised enough to be efficient, particularly to address the challenge of transitioning to Open Science. By fulfilling its mission, the distributed research infrastructure OPERAS provides the research community with the missing brick it needs to find, access, create, edit, disseminate and easily and efficiently validate SSH outputs across Europe.
 A number of services have been developing over the last several years across the OPERAS community through a variety of projects to address these needs. Though many are in various stages of maturity, a coherent picture is coming together for what is available for the SSH community.
 The OPERAS service portfolio offers different types of services that adapt to the organisational structures available such as
 managed services where the individual services are not only sustained by OPERAS Research Infrastructure (RI), but where OPERAS is also re- sponsible for the full service delivery. GoTriple is a perfect example of this type of service. Another type of service are community services that are managed directly by the community provider, such as the Peer Review Information Service for Monographs (PRISM) provided by DOAB, but is supported and disseminated by OPERAS. In addition, there are a number of internal services that facilitate the operation of the OPERAS federation as a whole such as the OPERAS ID (single sign-on).
 The categories that these services cover a range from discovery, analytics, quality assurance, and research for society to multilingualism.

Constraining an Early Matter-Dominated Era through Cosmological Simulations
Creators: name: Green, Sheridan Beckwith
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2019

description: An early matter-dominated era (EMDE) is a brief period between the end of inflation and reheating where a matter-like energy source dominates the cosmic stage. During the EMDE, sub-horizon matter density perturbations grow linearly with the scale factor, as compared to logarithmically during the radiation-dominated (RD) era. Perturbation modes outside the comoving Hubble horizon at reheating, with R > R[H] ≡ 1/(a[RH]H[RH]) and thus k < k[RH], are unaffected by the EMDE. Free-streaming of the dark matter particle will eliminate structure formation on scales below the free-streaming cut-off scale R[cut] = 1/k[cut]. Modes in the wavenumber range k[RH] < k < k[cut] will be enhanced by the EMDE, and thus we are interested in the ratio k[cut]/k[RH] as a function of the reheat temperature T[RH], temperature at kinetic decoupling in a RD universe T[kdS], and dark matter mass m[x]. A larger ratio corresponds to a larger range of modes enhanced by the EMDE. We find that for a ratio T[kdS]=T[RH] ≈ 6, a ratio k[cut]/k[RH] = 20 is attainable. The enhanced matter power spectrum is used as initial conditions for the GADGET-2 N-body simulation code to study the formation and survival fraction of dark matter microhalos below the reheat mass. The microhalos that survive until today are bound into galaxy-mass host halos as substructure. This high-density substructure
causes a boost in the dark matter annihilation rate. Our simulation results demonstrate that slightly fewer microhalos survive than previously expected, resulting in a somewhat lower annihilation boost factor than that of analytical predictions.

description: Folding uncertainty in theoretical models into Bayesian parameter estimation is necessary in order to make reliable inferences. A general means of achieving this is by marginalizing over model uncertainty using a prior distribution constructed using Gaussian process regression (GPR). As an example, we apply this technique to the measurement of chirp mass using (simulated) gravitational-wave signals from binary black holes that could be observed using advanced-era gravitational-wave detectors. Unless properly accounted for, uncertainty in the gravitational-wave templates could be the dominant source of error in studies of these systems. We explain our approach in detail and provide proofs of various features of the method, including the limiting behavior for high signal-to-noise, where systematic model uncertainties dominate over noise errors. We find that the marginalized likelihood constructed via GPR offers a significant improvement in parameter estimation over the standard, uncorrected likelihood both in our simple one-dimensional study, and theoretically in general. We also examine the dependence of the method on the size of training set used in the GPR; on the form of covariance function adopted for the GPR, and on changes to the detector noise power spectral density.

The Ethics of Nobility in Three Tragedies of Sophocles
Creators: name: Rust, Rebekah Kristina
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2013

description: One of the central themes that pervades the tragedies of Sophocles is that of how
humans relate to one another: how an individual relates to society and how self-interest is
reconciled with the common good. Sophocles’ tragedies explore the concept of human
political success – that is, what constitutes the best communal bond – by exploring the human
condition, what attributes, virtues, and vices bring about success or failure. This thesis will
examine what constitutes ‘success’ in Sophocles’ tragedies by examining the most
‘successful’ characters, their ethics, and their actions.

description: The Scutum complex in the inner disk of the Galaxy has a number of young star clusters dominated by red supergiants that are heavily obscured by dust extinction and observable only at infrared wavelengths. These clusters are important tracers of the recent star formation and chemical enrichment history in the inner Galaxy. During the technical commissioning and as a first science verification of the GIANO spectrograph at the Telescopio Nazionale Galileo, we secured high-resolution (R=50,000) near-infrared spectra of five red supergiants in the young Scutum cluster RSGC3. Taking advantage of the full YJHK spectral coverage of GIANO in a single exposure, we were able to measure several tens of atomic and molecular lines that were suitable for determining chemical abundances. By means of spectral synthesis and line equivalent width measurements, we obtained abundances of Fe and iron-peak elements such as Ni, Cr, and Cu, alpha (O, Mg, Si, Ca, Ti), other light elements (C, N, F, Na, Al, and Sc), and some s-process elements (Y, Sr). We found average half-solar iron abundances and solar-scaled [X/Fe] abundance patterns for most of the elements, consistent with a thin-disk chemistry. We found depletion of [C/Fe] and enhancement of [N/Fe], consistent with standard CN burning, and low 12C/13C abundance ratios (between 9 and 11), which require extra-mixing processes in the stellar interiors during the post-main sequence evolution. We also found local standard of rest V(LSR)=106 km/s and heliocentric V(HEL)=90 km/s radial velocities with a dispersion of 2.3 km/s. The inferred radial velocities, abundances, and abundance patterns of RSGC3 are very similar to those previously measured in the other two young clusters of the Scutum complex, RSGC1 and RSGC2, suggesting a common kinematics and chemistry within the Scutum complex.

description: This work is devoted to the study of the boundary value problem \begin{eqnarray}\nonumber (-1)^αΔ^αu = (-1)^k S_k[u] + λf, \qquad x &\in& Ω\subset \mathbb{R}^N, \\ \nonumber u = \partial_n u = \partial_n^2 u = \cdots = \partial_n^{α-1} u = 0, \qquad x &\in& \partial Ω, \end{eqnarray} where the $k-$Hessian $S_k[u]$ is the $k^{\mathrm{th}}$ elementary symmetric polynomial of eigenvalues of the Hessian matrix and the datum $f$ obeys suitable summability properties. We prove the existence of at least two solutions, of which at least one is isolated, strictly by means of variational methods. We look for the optimal values of $α\in \mathbb{N}$ that allow the construction of such an existence and multiplicity theory and also investigate how a weaker definition of the nonlinearity permits improving these results.
Developing a Culturally Competent Model of Occupational Therapy in Bulgaria and Kosovo
Creators: name: Thomas, Hannah
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2017

description: This paper approaches the implementation of occupational therapy (OT) through a culturally competent framework specifically in Bulgaria and Kosovo. The review of the literature examined international initiatives where western-based OT was implemented into various developing communities. Through a culturally competent framework, a compilation of differences between western and Majority World cultures pertaining to OT were organized into five categories: space and time, mentalities of self-identity, community responsibility, religious philosophies, and opportunity access. The research component of this study included interviews with two leaders in the field of OT implementation in Bulgaria and Kosovo. The participants were asked questions regarding the development of OT in their respective countries through a culturally competent framework. The results were found to be consistent regarding the themes of mentalities of self-identity, community responsibility, and opportunity access. Two themes from the literature review that did not emerge were space and time and religious philosophies. Finally, three new themes emerged from the participant interviews: understanding context, creativity and resourcefulness, and autonomy in development. Based on these themes, a revised framework was created that provides context for future initiatives of OT implementation in developing communities.

description: SLAM has matured significantly over the past few years, and is beginning to appear in serious commercial products. While new SLAM systems are being proposed at every conference, evaluation is often restricted to qualitative visualizations or accuracy estimation against a ground truth. This is due to the lack of benchmarking methodologies which can holistically and quantitatively evaluate these systems. Further investigation at the level of individual kernels and parameter spaces of SLAM pipelines is non-existent, which is absolutely essential for systems research and integration. We extend the recently introduced SLAMBench framework to allow comparing two state-of-the-art SLAM pipelines, namely KinectFusion and LSD-SLAM, along the metrics of accuracy, energy consumption, and processing frame rate on two different hardware platforms, namely a desktop and an embedded device. We also analyze the pipelines at the level of individual kernels and explore their algorithmic and hardware design spaces for the first time, yielding valuable insights.

Design, Synthesis, and Characterization of Hippeastrine Derivatives for the Treatment of Zika Virus Infection
Creators: name: Lin, Amy
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2019

description: IntroductionZika virus (ZIKV) is a mosquito-borne flavivirus that can trigger Guillian-Barre syndrome and cause congenital brain defects in pregnancy due to its infection and persistence in both adult and fetal neural cells. Currently, there is no treatment available for ZIKV. Through a chemical screen, we have identified hippeastrine as a drug candidate that can block and clear ZIKV infection in vitro in human cortical neural progenitor cells (hNPCs) and in adult mouse brains. However, hippeastrine only exhibits moderate potency and its mechanism of action is unknown. Therefore, we aim to enhance hippeastrine’s anti-ZIKV activity through medicinal chemistry and better understand its mechanism against ZIKV.MethodsTo enhance the potency, we modified specific functional groups on hippeastrine through synthetic chemistry. The reactions utilized included the esterification of the alcohol, saturation of the alkene, opening of the cyclic acetal and changing the lactone to a lactam. These hippeastrine derivates were then tested for their activity in hNPCs.ResultsWe have synthesized ten analogues and preliminary testing has shown that modifications at the alcohol have significantly increased activity. In contrast, reduction of the double bond in hippeastrine completely abolishes its anti-ZIKV activity. Based on this structure activity relationship, a photoaffinity labeling group was attached at the alcohol to the saturated or unsaturated hippeastrine for use in cellular pulldown assays to identify hippeastrine’s tinteracting proteins.ConclusionsBased on the results we have shown that it is possible to modify the anti-ZIKV activity of hippeastrine. The best improvement was a 5-fold increase in potency. These results along with the synthesis of photoaffinity labeled hippeastrine derivatives will allow for further enhancement of potency and elucidation of hippeastrine’s role in blockade and clearance of ZIKV infection.

description: Abrikosov fluxonics, a domain of science and engineering at the interface of superconductivity research and nanotechnology, is concerned with the study of properties and dynamics of Abrikosov vortices in nanopatterned superconductors, with particular focus on their confinement, manipulation, and exploitation for emerging functionalities. Vortex pinning, guided vortex motion, and the ratchet effect are three main fluxonic ``tools'' which allow for the dynamical (pinned or moving), the directional (angle-dependent), and the orientational (current polarity-sensitive) control over the fluxons, respectively. Thanks to the periodicity of the vortex lattice, several groups of effects emerge when the vortices move in a periodic pinning landscape: Spatial commensurability of the location of vortices with the underlying pinning nanolandscape leads to a reduction of the dc resistance and the microwave loss at the so-called matching fields. Temporal synchronization of the displacement of vortices with the number of pinning sites visited during one half ac cycle manifests itself as Shapiro steps in the current-voltage curves. Delocalization of vortices oscillating under the action of a high-frequency ac drive can be tuned by a superimposed dc bias. In this short review a choice of experimental results on the vortex dynamics in the presence of periodic pinning in Nb thin films is presented. The consideration is limited to one particular type of artificial pinning structures --- directly written nanolandscapes of the washboard type, which are fabricated by focused ion beam milling and focused electron beam induced deposition. The reported results are relevant for the development of fluxonic devices and the reduction of microwave losses in superconducting planar transmission lines.

description: Pupillary response to cognitive workloads is a reliable assessment of neural resource utilization – but has not been used to investigate post-concussion physiological impairment. This study investigated the effect of concussion history, sequence length, and task performance on average change in pupil size from baseline to retention periods during a backwards digit-span task. Recreationally active college students, (10 healthy, 10 with a concussion history; age = 21.85 ± 2.13 years; 50% male), completed a backwards digit-span task (66 trials) in a virtual reality environment while recording pupil size. A generalized linear mixed model analyzed and suggested no main effects for concussion history (F1,18=0.01, P=0.906), or accuracy (F1,17=0.02, p=0.879), but a main effect of sequence length (F10,179=3.34, p<0.001). No significant interaction effect between concussion history and sequence length (F10,179=1.85, p=0.055). Pupillary response to a cognitive load shows potential in assessing neural resource utilization but future investigations should consider concussion history variability.

description: Scientific Initiation (SI) is an educational activity that allows students to begin their scientific training and research under the guidance of an experienced researcher. While several studies have examined students’ perceptions of SI, research on the perspective of researchers working in this field is currently lacking. Thus, the aim of this study is to describes the design of a protocol to conduct a systematic review to identify the factors that influence the work of researchers in SI and explore the motivations that lead researchers to engage in research projects within institutions. Literature search will be done using the bibliographic databases, including Academic Search Premier, APA PsycNet, CINAHL Plus, ERIC, Scopus, SocINDEX and Web of Science. Original, peer-reviewed articles that examine the factors related to the work of researchers in SI will be included, without any restrictions of language or publication date. Original, peer-reviewed articles that examine the factors related to the work of researchers in SI will be included, without any restrictions of language or publication date. We aim to understand the factors that drive researchers to engage in SI research through a dissemination of the findings of this systematic review.

A Review of the Opioid Epidemic:  Interventions Nurses Can Use to Address Addiction
Creators: name: Jarrett, Tristan
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: The opioid epidemic is one closely related to the heroin epidemic located in the United States and is tied to the over-prescription of opioid pharmaceuticals to patients experiencing chronic non-malignant pain. The purpose of this literature review is to synthesize and analyze studies on interventions that Registered Nurses and Nurse Practitioners may use in the spectrum of opioid therapy beginning with prescription, through bedside care and care management, and ending with policy. A search of the literature using CINAHL, PubMed, Embase and PsychInfo was conducted, with 15 articles being utilized in this review. A PRISMA chart is found in Figure One.  The themes of these studies comprise the benchmarks of a chronic opioid patient care spectrum: care management, nursing care process, and prescription policy. Main takeaways from these studies include that there is a need for standardization in opioid prescription, utilization of pre-screenings for abuse risk in patients, prescription monitoring program enrollment, policy change for inclusive treatment options, and continued monitoring with the implementation of complementary and alternative therapies in conjunction with opioid therapy.

title: Toward a passive brain computer interface for simultaneous detection of mental workload and stress
Creators: name: Baheri, Mahsa
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Nefoundland
Year: 2022

description: A passive brain-computer interface (pBCI) is a system that continuously adapts a human-computer interaction to the user’s mental state. An example would be a system that aims to prevent traffic accidents by sending alerts to a truck driver when a state of drowsiness is detected. Key to the efficacy of such a system is the reliable estimation of the user’s state via neural signals, acquired through non-invasive methods like electroencephalography (EEG). Typically, in pBCI studies, the state being explored (e.g., fatigue, frustration, boredom, attention) is considered in isolation, and no other aspect of the user’s state is taken into account. In real-life scenarios, however, different aspects of the user’s state are likely to be changing simultaneously - for example, their cognitive (e.g., level of mental workload) and affective (e.g., level of stress/anxiety) states. This inevitable confounding of different states needs to be accounted for in the development of state detection algorithms in order for them to remain effective when taken outside the lab. In this work, simultaneous classification of two mental states via EEG is investigated for the first time. Specifically, mental workload and stress are explored since detection of both of these states would be useful in a variety of applications, including for improving safety in high risk work environments. Individually, both mental workload and stress have been studied extensively in the passive BCI literature, however in real-life scenarios they often vary concurrently within an individual. First, the effect of varying each state on classification of the other state was investigated to indicate if/how mental workload and stress confound one another. Then, different classification algorithms were proposed and evaluated to mitigate the confounding effects of variation in mental workload on the detection of stress and vice versa. Finally, a processing pipeline suitable for realizing an online BCI for simultaneous detection of mental workload and affective state was investigated. This work represents a step toward the ultimate goal of realizing a functional, reliable, and robust passive BCI capable of detecting both mental workload and stress.

description: The last years have been affected by Covid-19 and the international emergency mecha-nism to deal with health-related threats. The effects of this period manifested differ-ently worldwide, depending on matters such as international relations, national policies, power dynamics etc. Additionally, the impact of this time will likely have long-term effects which are yet to be known. This paper gives a critical overview of the Public Health Emergency of International Concern (PHEIC) mechanism in the context of Covid-19. It does so by explaining the legal framework for states of emergency, specifically in the context of a PHEIC, while considering its restrictions and limitations on human rights. It further outlines issues in the manifestation of global protections and limitations on human rights during Covid-19. Lastly, considering the likelihood of future PHEICs and the known systemic obstructions, this paper offers ways to im-prove this mechanism from a holistic, non-zero-sum perspective.
description: Die letzten Jahre waren geprägt von Covid-19 und dem internationalen Notfallmecha-nismus zur Bewältigung gesundheitsbe-zogener Bedrohungen. Die Auswirkungen dieser Zeit zeigten sich weltweit unter-schiedlich, abhängig von den internatio-nalen Beziehungen, der nationalen Politik, der Machtdynamik usw. Außerdem werden die Auswirkungen dieser Zeit wahrschein-lich langfristige, heute noch unbekannte Folgen haben. Diese Studie gibt einen kriti-schen Überblick über den Mechanismus für internationale gesundheitliche Notfälle (Public Health Emergency of International Concern – PHEIC) im Kontext von Covid-19. Zu diesem Zweck wird der rechtliche Rahmen für Notfälle, insbesondere im Zusammenhang mit PHEIC, erläutert, und es werden die damit verbundenen Ein-schränkungen und Begrenzungen der Menschenrechte betrachtet. In Anbetracht der Wahrscheinlichkeit künftiger PHEICs und der bekannten systemischen Hin-dernisse bietet dieses Papier schließlich Möglichkeiten zur Verbesserung dieses Mechanismus aus einer ganzheitlichen Per-spektive.

description: This paper investigates the decays from heavy higgsino-like weak-doublets into Z, h bosons and missing particles. When pair-produced at the LHC, the subsequent Z, h to 2l, 2b decays in the doublet decay cascade can yield 4l, 2l 2b, and 4b + MET + jets final states. Mutual observation of any two of these channels would provide information on the the associated doublets' decay branching fractions into a Z or h, thereby probing the Goldstone equivalence relation, shedding additional light on the Higgs sector of beyond the Standard Model theories, and facilitating the discrimination of various contending models, in turn. We compare the Z/h decay ratio expected in the Minimal Supersymmetric model, the Next-to Minimal Supersymmetric model and a minimal singlet-doublet dark matter model. Additionally, we conduct a full Monte Carlo analysis of the prospects for detecting the targeted final states during 14 TeV running of the LHC in the context of a representative NMSSM benchmark model.

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2017

description: Through field sampling, this study compares the ghost crab burrow densities acquired using a Fixed-Area sampling method to those measured using the Belt Transect method commonly used in ecological research. The two methods differ in area sampled per study site as well as distribution of area sampled along the beach, from dune to swash. I assess key differences between the two methods, how those differences influence the data each method captures, and the implications for management and monitoring programs.

The jet has a projected length of 5 kpc and a similar morphology to other known optical jets in low-power radio galaxies. We also report a strong jet-cloud interaction which appears to be deflecting the counter-jet and causing a reversal in its direction.
