description: Confocal microscopy is an invaluable tool for studying fluorescent materials and finds a wide application in biology and in quantum sensing. Usually, these experiments are performed under ambient conditions, but many materials are air sensitive (for example, black phosphorus) and degrade quickly under the strong laser irradiance. Here, we present a glovebox-integrated confocal microscope designed for nitrogen-vacancy (NV) center-based nano-scale sensing and NMR spectroscopy in an inert gas atmosphere. Using black phosphorus as a test material, we confirm that the glovebox maintains low oxygen levels and prevents material degradation during laser exposure. We demonstrate the setup’s capabilities through experiments that show NV center detection and spin manipulation under a black phosphorus flake. This custom-built system enables the study of air-sensitive materials and opens new perspectives for exploring surface chemistry in a controlled environment. Our work outlines both the strengths and the challenges of using a glovebox-integrated confocal microscope for quantum technology applications.
title: “Go Back and Tell Them Who the Real Men Are!” Gendering Our Understanding of Kibera’s Post-election Violence
Creators: name: Kihato, Caroline Wanjiku
Publisher: name: Institute for Interdisciplinary Conflict and Violence Research, Bielefeld University
Year: 2016
Subjects: Conflict; Violence; Xenophobia

description: Using a gendered analysis, this article examines the post election violence (PEV) in Kibera, Kenya, between December 2007 and February 2008. Through indepth interviews with Kibera residents, the article interrogates how gender influenced violent mobilizations in Kenya’s most notorious slum. Most scholarly analyses have tended to understand the post-election violence as a result of politicized ethnic identities, class, and local socio-economic dynamics. Implicitly or explicitly, these frameworks assume that women are victims of violence while men are its perpetrators, and ignore the ways in which gender, which cuts across these categories, produces and shapes conflict. Kibera’s conflict is often ascribed to the mobilization of disaffected male youths by political “Big Men.” But the research findings show how men, who would ordinarily not go to war, are obliged to fight to “save face” in their communities and how women become integral to the production of violent exclusionary mobilizations. Significantly, notions of masculinity and femininity modified the character of Kibera’s conflict. Acts of gender-based violence, gang rapes, and forced circumcisions became intensely entwined with ethno-political performances to annihilate opposing groups. The battle for political power was also a battle of masculinities.

description: In this paper, extending the recent work of the authors with Calles Loperena and Dimitrijević Blagojević, we give a general and complete treatment of problems of partition of mass assignments with prescribed arrangements of hyperplanes on Euclidean vector bundles. Using a new configuration test map scheme, as well as an alternative topological framework, we are able to reprove known results, extend them to arbitrary bundles as well as to put various types of constraints on the solutions. Moreover, the developed topological methods allow us to give new proofs and extend results of Guth and Katz, Schnider, and Soberón and Takahashi. In this way we place all these results under one “roof”.

Subjects: ethnicised politics, ethnicised conflict, politico-institutional systems, Rwanda, Burundi

description: Following Peter Berger and Thomas Luckmann (1991) this study focuses on taken-for-granted notions, i.e. knowledge (defining ethnicised politics asexclusioninterpreted with reference to ethnic categories). This represents a departure from the conventional academic discussion of ethnicised politics, which focuseson exclusion inherent to the structures of political systems when seeking to explain violent conflict aligned along ethnic cleavages. The study compares twoneighbouring countries, Rwanda and Burundi, where different institutional models have been introduced to overcome ethnicised politics following comparableepisodes of ethnic violence. Whereas the Rwandan system avoids political representation based on ethnic categories, the Burundian system prescribes ethnicquotas. Semi-standardised interviews with twenty-two Rwandans and twenty Burundians conducted between September 2007 and May 2008 investigated ethnicisedpolitics as patterns of interpretation (i.e. knowledge). The study found that notwithstanding the different political institutional systems in Rwanda andBurundi (both aiming to overcome ethnicised politics), exclusion in both systems is interpreted with reference to ethnic categories, i.e. politics are ethnicisedin both countries. This result points to the importance of conceiving ethnicised politics as historically produced knowledge, i.e. patterns of interpretation.

description: We study the effect of energy and transport policies on pollution in two developing country cities. We use a quantitative equilibrium model with choice of housing, energy use, residential location, transport mode, and energy technology. Pollution comes from commuting and residential energy use. The model parameters are calibrated to replicate key variables for two developing country cities, Maputo, Mozambique, and Yogyakarta, Indonesia. In the counterfactual simulations, we study how various transport and energy policies affect equilibrium pollution. Policies may be induce rebound effects from increasing residential energy use or switching to high emission modes or locations. In general, these rebound effects tend to be largest for subsidies to public transport or modern residential energy technology.

Creators: name: Van Der Noll, Jolanda
Publisher: name: Institute for Interdisciplinary Conflict and Violence Research, Bielefeld University
Year: 2010
Subjects: Muslims, headscarf, tolerance, perceived threat.

description: This paper compares a psychological explanation of support for a ban on headscarves in the United Kingdom, France, Germany and the Netherlands. This study examines how perceptions of threat posed by Muslims and Islam and the overall attitude towards Muslims explain support for a ban on headscarves. In addition, cross-national comparisons are made to study how these relations are affected by contextual differences. Analyses are based on the 2005 survey on Islamic extremism by the Pew Research Center. Results show that the countries have a large influence on whether someone supports the ban on headscarves, indicating that contextual differences matter. In addition, having a negative attitude towards Muslims makes it more likely to support a ban on headscarves. In general, perceived threat contributes to stronger support, although there are slight differences in effect between the countries. Finally, perceived threat equally influences support for the ban on headscarves among prejudiced and non-prejudiced people.

description: Few studies analyze international media coverage of climate change, and few still explore media's role in public opinion about climate change from a comparative perspective. Using data from the 2022 Yale Meta survey of 108,946 Facebook monthly active users from 110 countries and territories, the current research finds that perceived awareness is associated with perceived personal and future risks but not protest participation intention. Only perceived personal harm was associated with protest intention. People in countries most exposed to climate-related impacts were more likely to show heightened perceptions of harm to self and future generations. An analysis of a subset of countries (n = 52) where media coverage data was externally available for 2015–2022 indicates that media coverage is positively associated with self-reported exposure to climate change and perceived awareness about the issue. However, media coverage is not related to perceived personal or future risks and is negatively associated with protest participation intent across countries. Despite low media coverage of climate change, citizens in poor and developing countries see climate change as a greater risk and are more willing to participate in protests compared to citizens in developed countries. Findings help clarify theoretical and practical implications for climate change communication research.

description: An emerging line of research has been exploring how changes in social norms can lay the ground for shifts toward sustainability. This pre-registered study investigated the influence of communicating static and dynamic norms (2 Static x 2 Dynamic, between-subjects design) on respondents’ beliefs, intentions, information-seeking behavior, and policy support regarding plant-based food. Here, static norms referred to a minority of consumers who believed that plant-based food has a crucial role in sustainability transitions. Dynamic norms referred to how the number of people endorsing this belief had been increasing. The findings (N = 492) revealed that communicating the dynamic aspect of the minority belief increased participants’ endorsement of that same belief. Moreover, exposure to dynamic norms (alone or with static norms) had a small positive effect on policy support. These findings add to the growing body of knowledge on dynamic-norm communication.

description: A longstanding problem in time-dependent density functional theory has been the absence of a functional able to capture excitonic physics under laser pump conditions. Here we introduce a scheme of coupled Kohn-Sham and Proca equations in a pump-probe setup that we show (i) produces linear-response excitonic effects in the weak pump regime in excellent agreement with experiment, but also (ii) captures excitonic physics in the highly nonlinear regime of ultrafast strong laser pumping. In particular ”bleaching” (i.e., reduction) of the excitonic weight and the appearance of excitonic side bands is demonstrated. The approach is a procedural functional—the Kohn-Sham and Proca equations are simultaneously time propagated—allowing the straightforward inclusion of, for example, lattice and spin degrees of freedom into excitonic physics. The functional is shown to have universal applicability to a wide range of materials, and we also establish a relation between the parameters used in the functional and the exciton Bohr radii of the materials.

description: We investigate how different types of cultural diversity influence anti-immigration attitudes across Swiss municipalities. While from a threat theory perspective, a high number of immigrants within a region increases (perceived) threat which fosters negative immigration attitudes, intergroup contact theory contends that culturally diverse societal contexts increase opportunities for contacts with immigrants, which give rise to more positive immigration attitudes. Prior research on ethnic hierarchies and host society acculturation attitudes led us to hypothesize that the presence of valued, “culturally similar” immigrants from wealthier countries increases contact and decreases threat, thereby reducing anti-immigrant prejudice. The presence of devalued, “culturally distant” immigrants from poorer countries should increase threat perceptions and dissuade contact thus heightening prejudice. A multilevel study was conducted using the 2002 European Social Survey (N = 1472 Swiss citizens, N = 185 municipalities). Replicating previous research, contact reduced exclusionary immigration attitudes through reduced threat. On the municipality level, higher proportion of North and West European immigrants increased contact, thus reducing threat. A larger proportion of Muslims was related to an increase in threat, leading to more pronounced exclusionary attitudes, but also to increased contact. Finally, we discuss how the impact of diversity depends on the social construction of immigrant categories, respondents’ social position and ideological stances, and the prevailing local ideological climate.

description: Climate research has established a cultural authority in modelling our future with climate change, and often uses a harmful impacts frame to communicate about climate change and climate futures. This paper investigates the social constructions of climate futures by analyzing how the harmful impacts frame resonates and is reframed in three social arenas – news media, climate movements, and local communities. Data for this study stems from a larger interdisciplinary project, drawing from content analyses, participant observations, interviews, and a survey. The findings highlight that news media and climate movements reframed the harmful impacts frame only slightly, mostly to generate attention. Members of local communities reframed to a greater extent, making stronger applications to their lifeworlds. The study also points to a lack of connections across the social arenas. Implications for climate change communication will be discussed.
High Precision Cnc Motion Control

Publisher: name: Zenodo

Subjects: Control Systems Engineering

description: This thesis focuses on the design of an electrical drive system for the purpose of high precision motion control. A modern electrical drive is usually equipped with acurrent regulated voltage source along with powerful motion controller systemutilizing one or more micro-controllers and/or digital signal processors (DSPs).That is, the motor drive control is mostly performed by a dedicated digital-motioncontroller system.Such a motor drive mostly interfaces with its host processor via various serialcommunication protocols such as Profibus, CAN+, RS-485 etc. for the purpose of receiving commands and sending out important status/control signals. Consideringthat the motor drives lie at the heart of every (multi-axis) motion control system, theaim of this thesis is to explore the design and implementation of a conventional DCmotor drive system suitable for most industrial applications that require precisionand accuracy. To achieve this goal, various underlying control concepts andimportant implementation details are rigorously investigated in this study.
A low power DC motor drive system with a power module, a current regulator anda motion controller is built and tested. Several design revisions on these subsystemsare made so as to improve the overall performance of the drive system itself.Consequently, important "know-how" required for building high performance (andhigh power) DC motor drives is gained in this research.

description: This article presents an enhanced emission module for the PALM model system, which collects discrete emission sources from different emission sectors and assigns them dynamically to the prognostic equations for specific pollutant species as volumetric source terms. Bidirectional lookups between each source location and cell index are maintained by using a hash key approach, while allowing all emission source modules to be conceived, developed, and operated in a homogeneous and mutually independent manner. An additional generic emission mode has also been implemented to allow for the use of external emission data in simulation runs. Results from benchmark runs indicate a high level of performance and scalability. Subsequently, a module for modeling parametrized emissions from domestic heating is implemented under this framework, using the approach of building energy usage and temperature deficit as a generalized form of heating degree days. A model run has been executed under idealized conditions by solely considering dispersion of PM10 from domestic heating sources. The results demonstrate a strong overall dependence on the strength and clustering of individual sources, diurnal variation in domestic heat usage, and the temperature deficit between the ambient temperature and the user-defined target temperature. Vertical transport additionally contributes to a rapid attenuation of daytime PM10. Although urban topology plays a minor role on the pollutant concentrations at ground level, it has a relevant contribution to the vertical pollutant distribution.

description: The experimental realization of increasingly complex quantum states underscores the pressing need for new methods of state learning and verification. In one such framework, quantum state tomography, the aim is to learn the full quantum state from data obtained by measurements. Without prior assumptions on the state, this task is prohibitively hard. Here, we present an efficient algorithm for learning states on 𝑛 fermion modes prepared by any number of Gaussian and at most 𝑡 non-Gaussian gates. By Jordan-Wigner mapping, this also includes 𝑛-qubit states prepared by nearest-neighbor matchgate circuits with at most 𝑡 swap gates. Our algorithm is based exclusively on single-copy measurements and produces a classical representation of a state, guaranteed to be close in trace distance to the target state. The sample and time complexity of our algorithm is poly⁡(𝑛,2𝑡); thus if 𝑡 =𝒪⁡(log(𝑛)), it is efficient. We also show that, if 𝑡 scales slightly more than logarithmically, any learning algorithm to solve the same task must be inefficient, under common cryptographic assumptions. We also provide an efficient property-testing algorithm that, given access to copies of a state, determines whether such a state is far or close to the set of states for which our learning algorithm works. In addition to the outputs of quantum circuits, our tomography algorithm is efficient for some physical target states, such as those arising in time dynamics and low-energy physics of impurity models. Beyond tomography, our work sheds light on the structure of states prepared with few non-Gaussian gates and offers an improved upper bound on their circuit complexity, enabling an efficient circuit-compilation method.

description: Inhomogeneous quantum chains have recently been considered in the context of developing novel discrete realizations of holographic dualities. To advance this programme, we explore the ground states of infinite chains with large number N of Majorana fermions on each site, which interact via on-site q-body Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) couplings, as well as via additional inhomogeneous hopping terms between nearest-neighbour sites. The hopping parameters are either aperiodically or randomly distributed. Our approach unifies techniques to solve SYK-like models in the large N limit with a real-space renormalization group method known as strong-disorder renormalization group (SDRG). We show that the SDRG decimation of SYK dots linked by a strong hopping induces an effective hopping interaction between their neighbouring sites. If two decimated sites are nearest neighbours, in the large q limit their local ground states admit a holographic dual description in terms of eternal traversable wormholes. At the end of the SDRG procedure, we obtain a factorised ground state of the infinite inhomogeneous SYK chains that we consider, which has a spacetime description involving a sequence of wormholes. This amounts to a local near-boundary description of the bulk geometry in the context of discrete holography.

description: Cerro Machín is located in the municipality of Ibagué. It is a volcano with active fumaroles reaching 2650 m of elevation. Montane forest relics mostly cover it, but the forest in the surroundings has been largely replaced by pastureland. We surveyed its lichenized fungi communities focusing on species composition, community structure, diversity, and phorophyte preferences. Thirty-five of the 113 species observed are new reports for the department of Tolima and six of them for Colombia. The overall species richness is the highest reported in the municipality of Ibagué. In the study area, the forest has a good conservation status indicated by the presence of the genus Sticta. We registered an average of seven lichenized fungal species per tree, i.e., a low richness, possibly due to the exhausts of the fumaroles. A beta diversity analysis showed a high percentage of rare species. We found evidence of some preference of lichens for bark characteristics, but we did not observe specificity towards tree species.

Nuestro estudio evaluó las comunidades de hongos liquenizados, su composición de especies, la estructura de la comunidad, su diversidad y su preferencia de forófito. De las 113 especies observadas, 35 correspondieron a registros nuevos en el departamento de Tolima, de los cuales seis lo eran también para Colombia.

En el área de estudio se encontró un bosque conservado y en buen estado, según lo indicó la presencia del género Sticta. Un promedio de siete especies de hongos liquenizados se registró en cada árbol, valores de riqueza bajos que pueden deberse a la emisión de gases de las fumarolas. El análisis de la diversidad beta evidenció una proporción alta de especies raras. También se observó que los líquenes presentaban algunas preferencias características de la corteza, pero no de especificidad de especies de árboles.

description: Researchers are increasingly interested in enabling teachers to monitor and adapt gamification design in the context of intelligent tutoring systems (ITSs). These contributions rely on teachers’ needs and preferences to adjust the gamification design according to student performance. This work extends previous studies on teachers’ perception of their cognitive effort and dedication to creating and monitoring educational resource recommendations on a simulated gamified educational platform. This study compares teachers’ perceptions of workload using one of three scenarios— manual, automated, and semi-automated—to recommend educational resources through a randomized experiment. In this study, 151 participating teachers evaluated their perception of cognitive effort and time dedicated to creating recommendations for missions and monitoring students on the platform. The results indicate that the teachers’ perception that the automated scenario has a lower workload than the manual scenario significantly raises the hypotheses. Our results also suggest that teachers’ perception of the textbook scenario is different according to their level of knowledge about Information and Communication Technologies (ICT). For teachers with advanced ICT knowledge, the manual scenario is perceived as a scenario that indicates a more outstanding performance. According to the educational level of the teachers, the perception of mental demand for the automated scenario is significantly different. These significantly contribute to understanding teachers’ perceptions when using educational platforms in their classes.

description: Windowing – the process of managing the release sequence for content so as to maximise the returns from intellectual property rights (IPRs) - is changing because of transformations in the way that television is distributed and consumed. Drawing on original research into the experience of leading international television producers and distributors, this article breaks new ground by examining how rights owners are adjusting strategies for exploitation of the economic value in their content. Findings show how the rise of digital platforms and outlets whose footprints are diffuse and boundaries are porous is disrupting traditional windowing models. This has necessitated new thinking about how best to organize the sequential roll out of content so as to build audience demand, avoid overlaps and maximise returns. This article argues that changes in the dynamics of television distribution have altered not just processes for exploiting the value in IPRs but also content and content production, with implications for audiences as well as industry.

description: Major histocompatibility complex class II (MHC-II) presents antigens to T helper cells. The spectrum of presented peptides is regulated by the exchange catalyst human leukocyte antigen DM (HLA-DM), which dissociates peptide-MHC-II complexes in the endosome. How susceptible a peptide is to HLA-DM is mechanistically not understood. Here, we present a data-driven mathematical model for the conformational landscape of MHC-II that explains the wide range of measured HLA-DM susceptibilities and predicts why some peptides are largely HLA-DM-resistant. We find that the conformational plasticity of MHC-II mediates both allosteric competition and cooperation between peptide and HLA-DM. Competition causes HLA-DM susceptibility to be proportional to the intrinsic peptide off-rate. Remarkably, diverse MHC-II allotypes with conserved HLA-DM interactions show a universal linear susceptibility function. However, HLA-DM-resistant peptides deviate from this susceptibility function; we predict resistance to be caused by fast peptide association with MHC-II. Thus, our study provides quantitative insight into peptide and MHC-II allotype parameters that shape class-II antigen presentation.

description: Hexagonal boron nitride is distinguished among solid-state materials with luminescent properties as a material to create single-photon sources efficiently emitting at room temperature. In this work, it is demonstrated that helium ion irradiation with fluences of (1–5) × 1014 ion/cm2 increases the ultraviolet radiation intensity with a maximum at a wavelength of 320 nm due to the formation of new luminescent centers. The subsequent electron irradiation further increases the intensity of 320 nm luminescence apparently due to the formation of carbon-containing defects in the volume of hBN through recombination-enhanced migration. On the contrary, the intense helium ion irradiation stimulates the formation of nonradiative recombination centers, which reduce the lifetime of nonequilibrium charge carriers.
