James Pritchett. The Music of John Cage. Cambridge: Cambridge University Press, 1993. 223pp.
Creators: Lochhead, Judy
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 1995
Subjects: Music

description: James Pritchett makes evident his devotion to the music and thought of John Cage in this important contribution not only to Cage scholarship but also to the history of mid- and late- twentieth century music. Pritchett focuses on Cage's compositional activities rather than on the biographical details of his life or on analytical explanations of representative compositions. This focus appears to be motivated by two factors. One is Pritchett's fascination with Cage and his music. The second is his wish to overcome negative attitudes toward Cage as a composer-attitudes that result in descriptions of him as a philosopher or philosopher-composer at best. While critical understanding of composers's musical outputs necessarily builds on a knowledge of the technical details of their pieces, such understanding also goes beyond those details. Pritchett should be applauded for providing "facts" about Cage's career, but there is little in his book that counts as critique. He comments occasionally on the effects of pieces or about the problems with certain techniques, but such commentary is minimal.

description: Der Beitrag befasst sich mit Überzeugungen zum sprachsensiblen Sachunterricht in der Grundschule bei Studierenden des Grundschul- und Haupt-Real-Sekundar-Gesamtschul-Lehramtes in NRW, von denen ein Teil auch Sachunterricht bzw. ein naturwissenschaftliches Fach studieren. In einer Fragebogenstudie wurden die Teilnehmer*innen zu sprachlichen und fachlichen Voraussetzungen für die schriftliche Beschreibung des Wasserkreislaufs sowie zu Möglichkeiten bei der Vermittlung von fachlichen Inhalten in Bezug auf die Beschreibung des Wasserkreislaufs befragt. Die Ergebnisse werden inhaltsanalytisch und deskriptiv-statistisch ausgewertet und zeigen Unterschiede in Bezug auf Subkategorien zu Fachwissen und Fachsprache. Es werden Unterschiede in den schriftlichen Beschreibungen des Wasserkreislaufs deutlich, die von Studierenden selbst verfasst wurden. Für einen explorativen Vergleich werden Daten von Lehrkräften als Expert*innen und Texte von Drittklässler*innen hinzugezogen.
description: The article deals with the beliefs of students about language-sensitive teaching in elementary school. These are students of primary school and secondary school in NRW, including some who additionally study general education or a scientific subject. In a questionnaire study, the participants were asked about the linguistic and technical requirements for the written description of the water cycle as well as possibilities for conveying technical content in relation to the description of the water cycle. The results are evaluated in terms of content analysis and descriptive statistics and show differences in relation to subcategories of specialist knowledge and technical language. Differences in the written descriptions of the water cycle, which the students themselves wrote, become clear. For an exploratory comparison, data from teachers as experts and texts from third graders are used.

description: Inspired by a significance of $2.4σ$ in $h\to μτ$ decay observed by CMS at $\sqrt{s} = 8$ TeV, we investigate the Higgs lepton flavor violating effects in the generic two-Higgs-doublet model (GTHDM), where the lepton flavor changing neutral currents are induced at tree level and arisen from Yukawa sector. We revisit the constraints for GTHDM by considering theoretical requirements, precision measurements of $δρ$ and oblique parameters $S$, $T$, $U$ and Higgs measurements. The bounds from Higgs data now play the major role. With the values of parameters that simultaneously satisfy the Higgs bounds and the excess of Higgs coupling to $μ$-$τ$ at CMS, we find that the tree-level $τ\to 3μ$ and loop-induced $τ\to μγ$ could be consistent with current experimental upper limits; the discrepancy in muon $g-2$ between experiment and standard model prediction could be solved; and an interesting relation between muon $g-2$ and branching ratio (BR) for $μ\to e γ$ is found. The GTHM results that the ratio $BR(h\to eτ)/BR(h\to μτ)$ should be smaller than $10^{-4}$ in order of magnitude. Additionally, we also study the rare decay $Z\to μτ$ and get $BR(Z\to μτ)< 10^{-6}$.

The Disinfection of Cryptosporidium parvum Oocysts and Bacillus subtilis Spores in Water Using Electrochemically Generated Oxidants Produced by Miniaturized Pencells
Creators: name: Likirdopulos, Christina A.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2001

description: Cryptosporidium parvum oocysts have caused numerous waterborne outbreaks due to their resistance to typical chemical disinfection methods, such as chlorination. Previous studies have explored the inactivation of C. parvum oocysts by some alternative disinfectants. Additionally, a suitable surrogate has not been identified for the presence and response to disinfection of C. parvumal though bacterial spores, such as Bacillus subtilis, have been proposed. In this study, 5 mg/L doses of electrochemically generated oxidants (ECGO) produced from pencells, New Cell #1 and Full Pen (11), were analyzed for their disinfection capabilities against C. parvum oocysts and Bacillus subtilis endospores under varying conditions of pH, temperature and water quality. Two commercial sources of C. parvum oocysts were evaluated. Inactivation kinetics of the B. subtilis endospores were compared for ECGO and free chlorine (FC) Although neither pencell achieved C. parvum oocyst inactivation, the ECGO disinfectants and FC produced substantial reduction in B subtilis spores under some of the test conditions. Both pH and temperature had significant effects on the extent of endospore inactivation. Endospore disinfection kinetics by ECGO and FC were similar at all test conditions. Due to the difference in microbial inactivation between B. subtilis and C. parvum, it is concluded that the endospores are not a suitable surrogate for the disinfection of C. parvum oocysts by pencell generated ECGO disinfectant.

description: A potassium 4-(ethoxycarbonyl)phenyldithiocarbamate, (4-etphdtc), and 6-ethoxybenzothiazol)-dithiocarbamate, (6-etbedtc), ligands have been isolated and four metal dithiocarbamate complexes of the type [M(4-etphdtc)2] and [M(6-etbedtc)2] (M = Zn, Cd;) were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis and spectroscopic techniques (FT-IR,1H and13C{1H}-NMR, HRMS, UV–vis). Thermogravimetric studies of all four complexes were performed and the final product of the thermal decomposition was metal sulfides. The theoretical study with density functional theory (DFT) has been utilized to optimize the structures of the complexes for HOMO–LUMO energy calculation. Non-bonding orbitals (NBO) analysis was performed to determine the numerous hyper-conjugative interactions responsible for the stability of the compound. In addition, Molecular Electrostatic Potential (MEP) analysis was conducted to identify the compounds’ electron-rich, electron-poor, reactive sites, and bonding characteristics. The Electron Localization Function (ELF), and AIM Charges are also calculated. In vitro cytotoxicity, the complexes were examined against cervical cancer cells (HeLa) to assess their reactivity. Molecular docking studies were conducted to confirm the biological activity by simulating the binding orientation and affinity of the ligands and their complexes against VEGFR-2 kinase, The investigated ligands interact with the binding site as; hydrophilic (Lys868, Glu885, His1026, Cys1045, and Asp1046) and hydrophobic (Val889 and Leu889) for 4-etphdtc; hydrophilic (Lys868, Glu885, Cys1045, and Asp1046) and hydrophobic (Val889, Leu889, Leu1035, and Phe1047) for 6-etphdtc. The calculated binding free energy values for Zn(4-etphdtc)2 and Zn(6-etphdtc)2complexes are – 9.700 kcal/mol, – 10.003 kcal/mol, respectively.

description: There is variability in the level of environmental chemicals in individual's bodies. This variability is composed of exposure variability and pharmacokinetic parameter variability. In the present study, two compounds, 1,2,3,4,6,7,8,9-cctachlorodibenzo-ρ-dioxin (OCDD) and mercury, were examined. Data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) were used to represent overall variability. Models were used to predict pharmacokinetic variability. The variability in exposure was unfolded from the pharmacokinetic variability and the contribution of each type of variability to overall variability was determined. The results showed that most of the overall variability observed was due to exposure variability.

description: A universal quantum computer requires a full set of basic quantum gates. With Majorana bound states one can form all necessary quantum gates in a topologically protected way, bar one. In this manuscript we present a protocol that achieves the missing, so called, $π/8$ 'magic' phase gate. The protocol is based on the manipulation of geometric phases in a universal manner, and does not require fine tuning for distinct physical realizations. The protocol converges exponentially with the number of steps in the geometric path. Furthermore, the magic gate protocol relies on the most basic hardware previously suggested for topologically protected gates, and can be extended to any-phase-gate, where $π/8$ is substituted by any $α$.

Superfund Community Information Needs Assessment: Four Case Study Sites in North Carolina
Creators: name: McMahan, Lanakila
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2007

description: Citizens and communities need information on contamination, routes of exposure, possible health effects, and alternatives for cleanup at Superfund hazardous waste sites in order to participate effectively and meaningfully in government decisions about site remediation and cleanup. It is unclear what kinds of information these stakeholders want, need, and/or can use. This paper assessed how technical and scientific information was used at four North Carolina case study sites and proposed effective ways to communicate to citizens and other stakeholders in communities near hazardous waste sites. The research used three surveys to examine stakeholder views, including how hazardous waste information is distributed, how community involvement activities are conducted, whether technical assistance was available, and the level of trust in different information sources and entities. Results showed that local government officials had received and understood technical and scientific information. Community members reported that they did not know where to go for technical and scientific information, but were uniformly interested the health and environmental effects of contamination. Although the effectiveness of public meetings was perceived to be low by community respondents, both local government officials and community respondents wanted more information on the dates, times, and locations of public meetings. Engaging the public early in the process increased their involvement. Although responses at different sites showed some commonalities, each site should be approached individually. No one-size-fits- all plan for community involvement will be adequate.

description: Sensing and imaging are among the most important applications of quantum information science. To investigate their fundamental limits and the possibility of quantum enhancements, researchers have for decades relied on the quantum Cramér-Rao lower error bounds pioneered by Helstrom. Recent work, however, has called into question the tightness of those bounds for highly nonclassical states in the non-asymptotic regime, and better methods are now needed to assess the attainable quantum limits in reality. Here we propose a new class of quantum bounds called quantum Weiss-Weinstein bounds, which include Cramér-Rao-type inequalities as special cases but can also be significantly tighter to the attainable error. We demonstrate the superiority of our bounds through the derivation of a Heisenberg limit and phase-estimation examples.

Design and Utilization of a Large Denuder System to Investigate Rates of PAH Evaporation from Airborne Diesel Particles
Creators: name: Coe, Dana L.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1995

description: Rates of PAH evaporation from atmospheric particles are of interest for kinetic atmospheric modeling and atmospheric sampling purposes. A unique experimental apparatus, a large denuder system (LDS), was designed to investigate semi-volatile gas-particle partitioning. Findings indicated that the LDS is an effective tool for the study of PAH evaporation rates from diesel particles. Rates of evaporation from diesel particles and enthalpies of desorption were calculated for PAH's under concentrated conditions. Calculated values were in close agreement with published values. Additionally, evaporation phenomena were observed under more dilute conditions at time scales from 0.7-8 seconds. This time scale range should be of great concern to researchers who utilize diffusion denuders to sample PAH's in the atmosphere. Fresh, concentrated emissions (such as those found in traffic tunnels)may be particularly vulnerable to sampling artifacts.

description: Motivated by mathematical structures which arise in string vacua and gauge theories with N=2 supersymmetry, we study the properties of certain generalized theta series which appear as Fourier coefficients of functions on a twisted torus. In Calabi-Yau string vacua, such theta series encode instanton corrections from $k$ Neveu-Schwarz five-branes. The theta series are determined by vector-valued wave-functions, and in this work we obtain the transformation of these wave-functions induced by Kontsevich-Soibelman symplectomorphisms. This effectively provides a quantum version of these transformations, where the quantization parameter is inversely proportional to the five-brane charge $k$. Consistency with wall-crossing implies a new five-term relation for Faddeev's quantum dilogarithm $Φ_b$ at $b=1$, which we prove. By allowing the torus to be non-commutative, we obtain a more general five-term relation valid for arbitrary $b$ and $k$, which may be relevant for the physics of five-branes at finite chemical potential for angular momentum.

description: In United States asthma is a major public health problem whose prevalence is increasing. Asthma exacerbations are triggered by exposure to air pollutants, as well as other factors such as tobacco smoke, molds, furry pets etc. My interest is to visually compare the spatial distribution of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) criteria pollutants, and asthma and wheezing symptoms in North Carolina. The criteria air pollutants are ozone, lead, particulate matter, carbon monoxide, SOx and NOx. The concentrations of most of these air pollutants have been increasing over many decades due to urbanization, manufacturing and industrial developments. The asthma outcome that this study focuses on is the prevalence of asthma and wheezing symptoms in children, because childhood asthma has been increasing and it is an important health concern in North Carolina. The North Carolina School Asthma Survey (NCSAS) data set was used in this work, which contains information on the breathing status of all children, enrolled in public 7th and 8th grades of age group 13-14 years during year 1999. The visual comparison of the exposure and health fields will be done using graphical exploratory of the data, and will be aided by the Bayesian Maximum Entropy (BME) method of modern Geostatistics.

description: The ground-state electronic configuration of three coupled bidimensional electron gases has been determined using a variational Hartree-Fock approach, at zero magnetic field. The layers are Coulomb coupled, and tunneling is present between neighboring layers. In the limit of small separation between layers, the tunneling becomes the dominant energy contribution, while for large distance between layers the physics is driven by the Hartree electrostatic energy. Transition from tunneling to hartree dominated physics is shifted towards larger layer separation values as the total bidimensional density of the trilayers decreases. The inter-layer exchange helps in stabilize a "balanced" configuration, where the three layers are approximately equally occupied; most of the experiments are performed in the vicinity of this balanced configuration. Several ground-state configurations are consequence of a delicate interplay between tunneling and inter-subband exchange.

description: Due to the absence of tantalising hints for new physics during the LHC's run 1, the extension of the Higgs sector by dimension six operators will provide the new phenomenological standard for searches of non-resonant extensions of the Standard Model. Using all dominant and subdominant Higgs production mechanisms at the LHC, we compute the constraints on Higgs physics-relevant dimension six operators in a global and correlated fit. We show in how far these constraints can be improved by new Higgs channels becoming accessible at higher energy and luminosity, both through inclusive cross sections as well as through highly sensitive differential distributions. This allows us to discuss the sensitivity to new effects in the Higgs sector that can be reached at the LHC if direct hints for physics beyond the SM remain elusive and the impact of these constraints on well-motivated BSM scenarios.

This allows us to prove that the complement of the figure-eight knot geometrically bounds a complete, finite volume hyperbolic 4-manifold. This the first example of geometrically bounding hyperbolic knot complement and, amongst known examples of geometrically bounding manifolds, the one with the smallest volume.

Luigi Boccherini and the Court of Prussia

Year: 1992
Subjects: Music

description: The question of Luigi Boccherini's whereabouts during the time he served as Compositor di Camera to Friedrich Wilhelm II, King of Prussia (reigned 1786-97) remains unanswered. One theory contends that Boccherini lived in semi-seclusion in Spain during the years 1787-96, devoting
himself exclusively to composition. Others argue that Boccherini went to the Court of Prussia on the basis of a letter thought to be written by the composer while in Breslau. Did he stay in Spain or did he take up residence at Friedrich Wilhelm's court? Parker's examination of the autograph scores, originally part of the Prussian Royal Library and now housed at the Staatsbibliothek zu Berlin Preussischer Kulturbesitz in Berlin, reveals that Boccherini used Spanish paper exclusively and thus supports the theory that he remained in Spain.

The Use of Work Zones to Characterize Formaldehyde Exposures in a Particleboard Manufacturing Facility
Creators: name: McCann, Eric J.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1999

description: The following report documents the results of a sampling project for occupational exposure to formaldehyde in the Weyerhaeuser Company facility located in Moncure, North Carolina. A total of 248 samples were collected during the months of May through August of 1994 and 1995. The samples were collected from approximately 100 employees during the day shift (8 a.m. until 4p.m.). The goal in performing the sampling was to assist Weyerhaeuser in identifying those employees who are at risk of exposure to formaldehyde levels in excess of the OSHA Action Level or PEL. By identifying the high risk employees, Weyerhaeuser hoped to be able to re-train or reassign these employees in order to reduce the risks of overexposure within their facility. Though this strategy was well-meaning, the author of this report felt that it placed too much of the blame for the overexposures upon the individual employees, and did not focus enough attention upon identifying the underlying causes of the overexposures, namely the sources of airborne formaldehyde within the facility. The purpose of this report is to assist Weyerhaeuser in identifying the areas of their facility in which employees have the potential to receive formaldehyde exposures in excess of the current Occupational Exposure Limits (OELs). In order to help quantify the risks of overexposure to formaldehyde, the probability of overexposure will be calculated for each area of the facility. In doing so, it is hoped that Weyerhaeuser will be able to improve their safety and health program by enabling them to focus their sampling efforts on those areas with the highest risks of overexposure. In the long term, the improvements to their safety and health program should help Weyerhaeuser to reduce their expenses associated with monitoring, and to reduce the risks to employee health associated with exposure to formaldehyde.

description: The sixth volume of the Complete Critical Edition of Janacek's works, consisting of the early unaccompanied male choruses, has recently appeared. This collection, which covers the years 1873 to 1897, takes us from the very beginning of Janacek's compositional career up to the composition of Jenufa.These are not Janacek's greatest works in the genre; that distinction is reserved for works like Kantor Halfar (Schoolmaster Halfar), Marycka Magdonova, Sedmdesat tisic (The Seventy Thousand), and Potulny silinec (The Wandering Madman), which were composed between 1906 and 1922. Yet this collection is nonetheless an important one; it marks the first time that all of Janacek's early male choruses have been available together. Thus it becomes possible to follow the progress of the composer from Orani (Ploughing), where, as a nineteen-year-old, he was almost completely indebted to the musical language of his teacher Pavel Krizkovsky, to Slavnosti sbor (Festive Choir) of 1897, a work which reflects elements that we associate with Janacek's mature style: incessant repetition; short, jagged phrases; and fresh modulations and inflections.The problems ~and strengths of the Janacek Edition itself have been discussed rather fully in the last several years, by myself and others. The remarks here will only concern themselves with specific features of the present volume.

description: We prove the quantization of the Hall conductivity for general weakly interacting gapped fermionic systems on two-dimensional periodic lattices. The proof is based on fermionic cluster expansion techniques combined with lattice Ward identities, and on a reconstruction theorem that allows us to compute the Kubo conductivity as the analytic continuation of its imaginary time counterpart.

Numerical Calculation of Inertial Aspiration Efficiency of Aerosols into Thin-Walled Sampling Inlets
Creators: name: Boyle, Kevin M.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1991

description: Aspiration efficiency of particles from a flowing airstream into a thin walled sampling inlet is accurately predicted using a numerical model. The model combines the Boundary Integral Equation Method for predicting the velocity field into the inlet with an analytical solution to the particle equations of motion. A two and a three dimensional model are examined. Results for the three dimensional model correlate well with an empirical model of aspiration efficiency. The method can be generalized to a wide range of airstream, sampling inlet, and particle conditions.

description: In this paper, we take into account black hole solutions of Brans-Dicke-Maxwell theory and investigate their stability and phase transition points. We apply the concept of geometry in thermodynamics to obtain phase transition points and compare its results with those, calculated in canonical ensemble through heat capacity. We show that these black holes enjoy second order phase transitions. We also show that there is a lower bound for the horizon radius of physical charged black holes in Brans-Dicke theory which is originated from restrictions of positivity of temperature. In addition, we find that employing specific thermodynamical metric in the context of geometrical thermodynamics, yields divergencies for thermodynamical Ricci scalar in places of the phase transitions. It will be pointed out that due to characteristics behavior of thermodynamical Ricci scalar around its divergence points, one is able to distinguish the physical limitation point from the phase transitions. In addition, the free energy of these black holes will be obtained and its behavior will be investigated. It will be shown that the behavior of the free energy in the place where the heat capacity diverges, demonstrates second order phase transition characteristics.

Are water sector professionals worried about climate change? Examining the risk perceptions of water sector professionals through a systematic literature review and survey.
Creators: name: Connolly, Katherine
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2017

description: For water and wastewater utilities to adapt to climate change, water sector professionals must perceive risk from the associated impacts. In order to better understand water sector professionals’ risk perceptions, a systematic literature review was conducted, which revealed that risk perceptions toward climate change have increased over time and are linked to behavior and decision-making in the water sector. No identified papers in the peer-reviewed literature have studied professionals from sub-Saharan Africa, therefore, a survey was implemented to examine the perceptions of professionals in this region. We surveyed 90 participants at the African Water Association’s Congress in Nairobi, Kenya, and found that water sector professionals are concerned about climate change impacts on utilities, but are also worried about non-climate risks facing utilities. These findings highlight the multiple, competing risks utilities face and the need for adaptation strategies that simultaneously address climate and non-climate concerns of utilities.
