description: We perform a comparative numerical hydrodynamics study of embedded protostellar disks formed as a result of the gravitational collapse of cloud cores of distinct mass (M_cl=0.2--1.7 M_sun) and ratio of rotational to gravitational energy (β=0.0028--0.023). An increase in M_cl and/or βleads to the formation of protostellar disks that are more susceptible to gravitational instability. Disk fragmentation occurs in most models but its effect is often limited to the very early stage, with the fragments being either dispersed or driven onto the forming star during tens of orbital periods. Only cloud cores with high enough M_cl or βmay eventually form wide-separation binary/multiple systems with low mass ratios and brown dwarf or sub-solar mass companions. It is feasible that such systems may eventually break up, giving birth to rogue brown dwarfs. Protostellar disks of {\it equal} age formed from cloud cores of greater mass (but equal β) are generally denser, hotter, larger, and more massive. On the other hand, protostellar disks formed from cloud cores of higher β(but equal M_cl) are generally thinner and colder but larger and more massive. In all models, the difference between the irradiation temperature and midplane temperature \triangle T is small, except for the innermost regions of young disks, dense fragments, and disk's outer edge where \triangle T is negative and may reach a factor of two or even more. Gravitationally unstable, embedded disks show radial pulsations, the amplitude of which increases along the line of increasing M_cl and βbut tends to diminish as the envelope clears. We find that single stars with a disk-to-star mass ratio of order unity can be formed only from high-βcloud cores, but such massive disks are unstable and quickly fragment into binary/multiple systems.

description: Excerpts from the report: During recent years the pallet box has been used as a handling container for many agricultural products. It is an economical handling container for transporting large quantities of products or materials over long distances. The pallet box was not used for handling fresh fruits and vegetables for many years because growers thought that perishable commodities would be injured if handled in this way. This study was undertaken to establish guidelines that will enable packinghouse operators to determine the economic feasibility of converting to pallet box handling. The specific objective of this study was to compare the labor and equipment costs for pallet box handling with those for field box handling on the basis of operating conditions prevalent in typical commercial peach packinghouses.

description: We explore the process of initiating motion through a granular medium by measuring the force required to push a flat circular plate upward from underneath the medium. In contrast to previous measurements of the drag and penetration forces, which were conducted during steady state motion, the initiation force has a robust dependence on the diameter of the grains in the medium. We attribute this dependence to the requirement for local dilation of the grains around the circumference of the plate, as evidenced by an observed linear dependence of the initiation force on the plate diameter.

description: This document is a mid-term report ( M12) on the progress of how to create a strong European buyers network in education based upon LEA task 2.4 and to fulfill the objective of gathering a criticial mass of procurers.  The buyers network will be named the LEA – Network or  in brief LEA – N.

Critical mass of procurers refers to the size the buyers network needs to reach in order to efficiently and competitively demonstrate that innovation procurement can rupture  traditional roles / systems towards innovation and create a positive impact on learning outcomes.  It  is also the size the procurers network should attain in order to sustain efficiency in challenging and steering the market towards its needs and providing simplfied future implementation of PCP / PPI in Education  on an EU level.

In LEA  no specific targeted amount of members is predefined, however, the critical mass of Member States represented is set to minimum 15 in order to guarantee a European coverage.   A LEA – N strategy was made in the LEA Baseliine ( D2.1)  to divide the creation of the network in two parts:

Creation of LEA Followers strategy M1 - 12

Creation of LEA – Network strategy M 12 – 24

This report describes  the outcome of the first part and provides a strategy for the second part.  Additionally the report provides a description of identfied and on- going innovation procurement process as Best Practice in Europe outside LEA .

description: A new type of electron sources has emerged which permits to inject particles in a controllable manner, one at a time, into an electronic circuit. Such single electron sources make it possible to fully exploit the particles' quantum nature. We determine the single-particle coherence length from the decay of the Aharonov-Bohm oscillations as a function of the imbalance of a Mach-Zehnder interferometer connected to a single electron source. The single-particle coherence length is of particular importance as it is an intrinsic property of the source in contrast to the dephasing length.

The role of human spliceosomal component SRm300 in neurodegenerative disease, response to serotonin treatment.
Creators: name: Horvath, Gabriela Ana
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: Background Genetic research in neurodegenerative disorders identified candidate genes in many familial cases, providing insight into the pathogenesis. Many of them share common pathologic mechanisms which may result from alterations in gene expression. Single gene disorders can be great models for complex neurodegenerative pathophysiology, however, questions remain, and progress in their treatment is still a challenge. This research project started in the clinic, with a family with an apparently genetic neurodegenerative disorder, including hemiplegic migraines and systemic serotonin deficiency. Serotonin has roles in physiological and behavioural functions, neurodevelopment, as well as neuropsychiatric, gastrointestinal and cardiovascular disorders and migraines. Serotonin metabolism includes synthesis, transport and degradation. Methods Building hypothesis: started with translational research, taking basic science into practical applications. To answer the question of the systemic serotonin deficiency, genes of serotonin synthesis, transport and developmental pathway were sequenced, and platelet serotonin uptake studies were performed. Furthermore, SERT protein, actin and other cytoskeleton proteins were quantified with Western blots and proteomic analysis, in different platelet fractions. Generating hypothesis: continued with Whole Exome Sequencing. For validation, transcriptome analysis was performed. Along with investigations, treatment with serotonin replacement, 5-hydroxytryptophan was started in the patients. Results Sequencing was negative for genes associated with serotonin production, transport, and development. Serotonin uptake was deficient in patient platelets. Western blots showed diminished cytoskeleton proteins in Triton-soluble platelet fractions. WES analysis yielded a candidate gene, SRRM2, a splicing coactivator protein with potentially damaging missense mutation. Transcriptome analysis revealed several differentially expressed genes. Treatment with serotonin replacement significantly improved the lower limb strength. Conclusions Cytoskeleton proteins were aggregated trapping membrane proteins inside the cell, explaining the biochemical phenotype. The transcriptome analysis demonstrated significant changes in transcription levels in multiple ontology pathways. Some of these genes are known to cause neurodegenerative diseases. The changes in the transcription levels suggest that a defect at the core of the spliceosome complex is a reasonable hypothesis explaining the basis of this family’s neurodegeneration. The success with serotonin treatment is also new and deserves further research.

description: Sensory stimuli are usually composed of different features (the what) appearing at irregular times (the when). Neural responses often use spike patterns to represent sensory information. The what is hypothesized to be encoded in the identity of the elicited patterns (the pattern categories), and the when, in the time positions of patterns (the pattern timing). However, this standard view is oversimplified. In the real world, the what and the when might not be separable concepts, for instance, if they are correlated in the stimulus. In addition, neuronal dynamics can condition the pattern timing to be correlated with the pattern categories. Hence, timing and categories of patterns may not constitute independent channels of information. In this paper, we assess the role of spike patterns in the neural code, irrespective of the nature of the patterns. We first define information-theoretical quantities that allow us to quantify the information encoded by different aspects of the neural response. We also introduce the notion of synergy/redundancy between time positions and categories of patterns. We subsequently establish the relation between the what and the when in the stimulus with the timing and the categories of patterns. To that aim, we quantify the mutual information between different aspects of the stimulus and different aspects of the response. This formal framework allows us to determine the precise conditions under which the standard view holds, as well as the departures from this simple case. Finally, we study the capability of different response aspects to represent the what and the when in the neural response.

description: In this paper we consider the cohomology of a closed arithmetic hyperbolic 3-manifold with coefficients in the local system defined by the even symmetric powers of the standard representation of SL(2,C). The cohomology is defined over the integers and is a finite abelian group. We show that the order of the 2nd cohomology grows exponentially as the local system grows. We also consider the twisted Ruelle zeta function of a closed arithmetic hyperbolic 3-manifold and we express the leading coefficient of its Laurent expansion at the origin in terms of the orders of the torsion subgroups of the cohomology.

description: Rich-club and page-club coefficients and their null models are introduced for directed graphs. Null models allow for a quantitative discussion of the rich-club and page-club phenomena. These coefficients are computed for four directed real-world networks: Arxiv High Energy Physics paper citation network, Web network (released from Google), Citation network among US Patents, and Email network from a EU research institution. The results show a high correlation between rich-club and page-club ordering. For journal paper citation network, we identify both rich-club and page-club ordering, showing that {}"elite" papers are cited by other {}"elite" papers. Google web network shows partial rich-club and page-club ordering up to some point and then a narrow declining of the corresponding normalized coefficients, indicating the lack of rich-club ordering and the lack of page-club ordering, i.e. high in-degree (PageRank) pages purposely avoid sharing links with other high in-degree (PageRank) pages. For UC patents citation network, we identify page-club and rich-club ordering providing a conclusion that {}"elite" patents are cited by other {}"elite" patents. Finally, for e-mail communication network we show lack of both rich-club and page-club ordering. We construct an example of synthetic network showing page-club ordering and the lack of rich-club ordering.

description: There are research studies that focus on principal leadership and the direct and positive impact it has on student performance, but few examine the effects of principal strategies in the areas of ongoing planning and decision making in high-performing poverty schools in urban school districts. Strategies implemented by school leaders as they relate to ongoing school reform, specifically in the areas of planning and decision-making in successful urban high-needs schools, were investigated. Research questions include: 1) What is the role of the principal in the ongoing process of planning and decision-making? 2) How do principals effectuate meaningful involvement of teachers in the ongoing planning and decision-making process? 3) What school-based support-structures and systems are created by principals to facilitate the involvement of other school personnel and community stakeholders in the ongoing planning and decision-making process? 4) What principal leadership actions and strategies are utilized to attain sustainability of high levels of student achievement? A qualitative case study methodology is used to understand the strategies of school leaders in successful high poverty urban schools, specifically with planning and decision-making. Elementary principals and teachers are asked open-ended questions in which they describe their experiences with leadership strategies that directly impact student achievement. The most prevalent theme that emerged was the availability of resources – offering a positive impact on teachers’ instructional performances. The findings suggest that as leaders utilize ongoing planning and decision-making strategies, as they relate to the new accountability system, they will become invaluable resources to support and retain teachers.

description: We demonstrate the trajectory measurement of the single neutral atoms deterministically using a high-finesse optical micro-cavity. Single atom strongly couples to the high-order transverse vacuum TEM_{10} mode, instead of the usual TEM_{00} mode, and the parameter of the system is (g_{10},κ,γ)=2π\times (20.5,2.6,2.6)MHz. The atoms simply fall down freely from the magneto-optic trap into the cavity modes and the trajectories of the single atoms are linear. The transmission spectrums of atoms passing through the TEM10 mode are detected by a single photon counting modules and well fitted. Thanks to the tilted cavity transverse TEM10 mode, which is inclined to the vertical direction about 45 degrees and it helps us, for the first time, to eliminate the degenerate trajectory of the single atom falling through the cavity and get the unique atom trajectory. Atom position with high precision of 0.1μm in the off-axis direction (axis y) is obtained, and the spatial resolution of 5.6μm is achieved in time of 10μs along the vertical direction (axis x). The average velocity of the atoms is also measured from the atom transits, which determines the temperature of the atoms in magneto-optic trap, 186μK {\pm} 19μK.

description: The Great Recession greatly exacerbated income inequality and might have also magnified unequal access to healthy food in the United States. There is a growing need to examine small-area effects of the Great Recession, especially among minority populations who were disproportionately targeted for predatory loans and experienced higher rates of foreclosure. To explore how the Great Recession interacted with a foodscape locally, a counterfactual quasi-experimental analysis extended by spatial econometric models is implemented to quantify the impact of foreclosure risk on supermarket access in Chicago. Black-majority, lower-income neighborhoods with higher risk of foreclosure experienced a small but significant worsening in food accessibility after the Great Recession, reflecting a compounding crisis of structural segregation and economic vulnerability. The results further suggest that inference interpretation is sensitive to both research design framing and underlying processes that drive geographically distributed relationships. For highly spatial phenomenon like segregation and foreclosure, making space explicit might not only clarify results but also enrich interpretation and understanding of underlying processes. It is essential to better understand the role segregation and structural inequality might have in perpetuating environments that contribute to social and health disparities.

description: The Pipe Nebula is a massive, nearby dark molecular cloud with a low star-formation efficiency which makes it a good laboratory to study the very early stages of the star formation process. The Pipe Nebula is largely filamentary, and appears to be threaded by a uniform magnetic field at scales of few parsecs, perpendicular to its main axis. The field is only locally perturbed in a few regions, such as the only active cluster forming core B59. The aim of this study is to investigate primordial conditions in low-mass pre-stellar cores and how they relate to the local magnetic field in the cloud. We used the IRAM 30-m telescope to carry out a continuum and molecular survey at 3 and 1 mm of early- and late-time molecules toward four selected starless cores inside the Pipe Nebula. We found that the dust continuum emission maps trace better the densest regions than previous 2MASS extinction maps, while 2MASS extinction maps trace better the diffuse gas. The properties of the cores derived from dust emission show average radii of ~0.09 pc, densities of ~1.3x10^5 cm^-3, and core masses of ~2.5 M_sun. Our results confirm that the Pipe Nebula starless cores studied are in a very early evolutionary stage, and present a very young chemistry with different properties that allow us to propose an evolutionary sequence. All of the cores present early-time molecular emission, with CS detections toward all the sample. Two of them, Cores 40 and 109, present strong late-time molecular emission. There seems to be a correlation between the chemical evolutionary stage of the cores and the local magnetic properties that suggests that the evolution of the cores is ruled by a local competition between the magnetic energy and other mechanisms, such as turbulence.

Reggio’s arpeggio : an autoethnographic tale of a music teacher’s explorations with Reggio Emilia
Creators: name: Yanko, Matthew
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: The Reggio Emilia approach to early childhood education has been globally recognized by educators and researchers as the most exceptional example of quality early education (Gardner, 1999; Kantrowitz & Wingert, 1991). However, within this approach there is a strong emphasis on the visual arts that in turn has diminished opportunities for children to participate in music activities. Andress (1998) was the first to expose the lack of music in this approach, and her concern was echoed by Matthews (2000), O’Hagin (2007), Vuckovic & Nyland (2010), and Smith (2011). As a result of this void, the present investigation explores the philosophies and practices of the Reggio Emilia approach within a kindergarten to grade seven elementary school music program. Specifically, I examine the role of the child, the role of the teacher, the environment as a third teacher, multiple forms of knowing, the role of documentation, and the Atelier. I use an autoethnographic approach to implement, reflect, and document this experience. I not only discover that Reggio Emilia can be successful within a music classroom setting, but argue that these philosophies and practices are of great importance to understanding new ways in which music educators can benefit from this approach beyond the scope of traditional programs and approaches to music with children. By adapting this approach to a music setting in grades higher than the early childhood years, my research extends the current Reggio literature. I not only present my struggles during this experience, but also explain how to supersede challenges and draw from the strengths of this approach that were exposed within the scope of my music program.

description: The goal of this work is to build new ways of human-computer interaction. It is accomplished through practical experiments. The TENS unit adds a looping interaction between the human and the computer through the human itself. Using electrical charge to control human behavior is inspired by the brain and how it controls the body. Calculations within the brain result in parts of the body to act accordingly to the brains goals. Having those goals defined by a computer code and executed by a TENS unit on a body arguably means, being connected to such construction is like having a second brain. How good this ”brain” performs, depends then on the code.

description: In this article, an overview of the fabrication and properties of high quality La0.67Sr0.33MnO3 (LSMO) thin films is given. A high quality LSMO film combines a smooth surface morphology with a large magnetization and a small residual resistivity, while avoiding precipitates and surface segregation. In literature, typically only a few of these issues are adressed. We therefore present a thorough characterization of our films, which were grown by pulsed laser deposition. The films were characterized with reflection high energy electron diffraction, atomic force microscopy, x-ray diffraction, magnetization and transport measurements, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and scanning transmission electron microscopy. The films have a saturation magnetization of 4.0 μB/Mn, a Curie temperature of 350 K and a residual resistivity of 60 μΩcm. These results indicate that high quality films, combining both large magnetization and small residual resistivity, were realized. A comparison between different samples presented in literature shows that focussing on a single property is insufficient for the optimization of the deposition process. For high quality films, all properties have to be adressed. For LSMO devices, the thin film quality is crucial for the device performance. Therefore, this research is important for the application of LSMO in devices.

The first is whether a uniform $θ$-term with $θ=π$ is generated for a strong topological insulator. The second is whether such a term has observable consequences in the bulk. The answers to both questions are positive, but the observability in three dimension vanishes for infinite system size.

Investigating the experiences of students with high-functioning autism/Asperger's disorder attending college or university
Creators: name: Nirmal, Rashmeen
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder characterized by clinically significant impairments in social interaction and communication and repetitive, restricted behaviours. According to the Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (2014), the prevalence of ASD in children has increased to 1 in 68, with more children being identified without significant cognitive impairment (i.e., high-functioning autism [HFA]). With the increase in the number of children diagnosed with HFA, there is likely to be an increase of young adults with HFA attending college or university, as they are generally capable of meeting the academic demands of postsecondary education. Unfortunately, studies have demonstrated poor postsecondary educational outcomes for students with HFA (e.g., Shattuck et al., 2012). Despite having the neurocognitive and academic ability to attend college or university, there are many students with HFA who do not enroll in postsecondary education or drop out soon after entry (Shattuck et al., 2012). There is a critical need to better understand the experiences of students with HFA in postsecondary education to help foster their postsecondary success. To that end, this study investigated the meaning of the lived experiences of students with HFA currently attending college or university. Using Interpretive Phenomenological Analysis as the method of inquiry, 12 postsecondary students (9 males and 3 females) diagnosed with either HFA or Asperger’s Disorder engaged in detailed, in-depth interviews with the researcher. Eight broad themes and corresponding subthemes emerged from the data analysis that depicts the phenomenon of attending college or university as students with HFA. The themes are 1) Managing Academic Expectations; 2) Experiencing Support; 3) Managing Autism Spectrum Disorder and Related Symptoms; 4) Reference to or Influence of Past Experiences; 5) Having a Sense of Appreciation; 6) Understanding Autism Spectrum Disorder by Others and Self; 7) Managing the Transition; and 8) Entering a New Social World. Validity strategies were used to ensure scientific rigour and credibility of the research findings. The findings, including significant contributions of the study, are discussed in relation to the extant literature. Strengths and limitations of the study as well as implications for psychologists, educators, and policy development are addressed.

description: Excerpts from the report: Raisins may be infested with insects at the time they are removed from the drying trays in the vineyards or they may become infested during storage. To eliminate the insect infestation, the raisins are fumigated at the time they are placed in storage and at intervals while in storage. During the past few years, phosphine has been used as a fumigant in the United States. It is manufactured in tablet and pellet form and is composed mainly of aluminum phosphide and ammonium carbamate. When exposed to the atmosphere, the tablets or pellets decompose to form phosphine (hydrogen phosphide), ammonia, carbon dioxide, and aluminum hydroxide. Phosphine is a gas that is slightly heavier than air, has an odor resembling carbide, and is effective against insects. Four tests were made to determine the effectiveness of phosphine against the most common insects that attack natural raisins stored in stacks covered with sisalkraft paper. The Food and Drug Administration has established a residue tolerance of 0.01 parts per million (p. p.m.) for the use of this fumigant on processed foods, one of which is raisins. Previous results with the type of treatments discussed in this study indicate that residues greater than 0.01 p. p.m. would not be expected.

Neutron-Proton Radii in N \approx Z Nuclei
Creators: name: Auerbach, N.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2010
Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A simple formula is derived that describes how the Coulomb interaction affects the proton radius in nuclei. It determines the difference between neutron and proton radii in nuclei with N approx Z. It also provides an estimate for the difference between the radii of the Z core neutrons and the protons in nuclei with a large neutron excess. The results obtained from the derived formula are compared with radii calculated in a Skyrme Hartree-Fock calculation.

description: Problem Statement: The huge number of information on the web as well as the growth of new inexperienced users creates new challenges for information retrieval. It has become increasingly difficult for these users to find relevant documents that satisfy their individual needs. Certainly the current search engines (such as Google, Bing and Yahoo) offer an efficient way to browse the web content. However, the result quality is highly based on uses queries which need to be more precise to find relevant documents. This task still complicated for the majority of inept users who cannot express their needs with significant words in the query. For that reason, we believe that a reformulation of the initial user's query can be a good alternative to improve the information selectivity. This study proposes a novel approach and presents a prototype system called PRESY (Profile-based REformulation SYstem) for information retrieval on the web. Approach: It uses an incremental approach to categorize users by constructing a contextual base. The latter is composed of two types of context (static and dynamic) obtained using the users' profiles. The architecture proposed was implemented using .Net environment to perform queries reformulating tests. Results: The experiments gives at the end of this article show that the precision of the returned content is effectively improved. The tests were performed with the most popular searching engine (i.e. Google, Bind and Yahoo) selected in particular for their high selectivity. Among the given results, we found that query reformulation improve the first three results by 10.7% and 11.7% of the next seven returned elements. So as we can see the reformulation of users' initial queries improves the pertinence of returned content.

Visibility bound caused by a distinguishable noise particle

description: We investigate how distinguishability of a "noise" particle degrades interference of the "signal" particle. The signal, represented by an equatorial state of a photonic qubit, is mixed with noise, represented by another photonic qubit, via linear coupling on the beam splitter. We report on the degradation of the "signal" photon interference depending on the degree of indistinguishability between "signal" and "noise" photon. When the photons are principally completely distinguishable but technically indistinguishable the visibility drops to the value 1/sqrt(2). As the photons become more indistinguishable the maximal visibility increases and reaches the unit value for completely indistinguishable photons. We have examined this effect experimentally using setup with fiber optics two-photon Mach-Zehnder interferometer.

description: We find a different way of using transgression in Mia Rendix'sarticle Transgression as Tragic Typology, where Rendix argues that American tragedy differs in kind from the European tragedy. American tragedy insists on a dual nature where cosmic harmony may be shattered and recreated through apocalyptic transgressions.

description: A similar focus on the cosmic can be found in Kim Toft Hansen'sarticle Religion in Scandinavian Crime Fiction, where Hansen argues that crime fiction in Scandinavia is moving towards becoming a post-secular genre, which on the one hand discusses and engages with modernity, yet at the same time opens up for discussion (and critique) of religion and spirituality, thereby transgressing modernity's own ideals.

description: We introduce a new class of infrared safe jet observables, which we refer to as template overlaps, designed to filter targeted highly boosted particle decays from QCD jets and other background. Template overlaps are functional measures that quantify how well the energy flow of a physical jet matches the flow of a boosted partonic decay. Any region of the partonic phase space for the boosted decays defines a template. We will refer to the maximum functional overlap found this way as the template overlap. To illustrate the method, we test lowest-order templates designed to distinguish highly-boosted top and Higgs decays from backgrounds produced by event generators. For the functional overlap, we find good results with a simple construction based on a Gaussian in energy differences within angular regions surrounding the template partons. Although different event generators give different averages for our template overlaps, we find in each case excellent rejection power, especially when combined with cuts based on jet shapes. The template overlaps are capable of systematic improvement by including higher order corrections in the template phase space.

description: A related concern for ontological divisions are found in Helle Thorsøe Nielsen's article Ontologisk transgression in 'Adaptation', where Nielsen outlines a range of different types of transgression, with the intention of uncovering a range of different ways of destabilizing the ontology of a fiction – in this case Charlie Kafuman and Spike Jonze's Adaptation. Going further than metafictional transgression, Nielsen suggests several forms of reflexive transgression.
