description: We use the lag-luminosity relation to calculate self-consistently the redshifts, apparent peak bolometric luminosities L_B, and isotropic energies E_iso for a large sample of BATSE gamma-ray bursts. We consider two different forms of the lag-luminosity relation; for both forms the median redshift for our burst database is 1.6. We model the resulting E_iso sample with power law and Gaussian probability distributions without redshift evolution, both of which are reasonable models. The power law model has an index of alpha_E=1.76+/-0.05 (95% confidence), where p(E_iso) propto E_iso^(-alpha_E). The simple universal jet profile model suggested but did not require alpha_E=2, and subsequent physically reasonable refinements to this model permit greater diversity in alpha_E, as well as deviations from a power law; therefore our observed E_iso probability distribution does not disprove the universal jet model.

description: We report the discovery of a highly dispersed fast radio burst, FRB~181123, from an analysis of $\sim$1500~hr of drift-scan survey data taken using the Five-hundred-meter Aperture Spherical radio Telescope (FAST). The pulse has three distinct emission components, which vary with frequency across our 1.0--1.5~GHz observing band. We measure the peak flux density to be $>0.065$~Jy and the corresponding fluence $>0.2$~Jy~ms. Based on the observed dispersion measure of 1812~cm$^{-3}$~pc, we infer a redshift of $\sim 1.9$. From this, we estimate the peak luminosity and isotropic energy to be $\lesssim 2\times10^{43}$~erg~s$^{-1}$ and $\lesssim 2\times10^{40}$~erg, respectively. With only one FRB from the survey detected so far, our constraints on the event rate are limited. We derive a 95\% confidence lower limit for the event rate of 900 FRBs per day for FRBs with fluences $>0.025$~Jy~ms. We performed follow-up observations of the source with FAST for four hours and have not found a repeated burst. We discuss the implications of this discovery for our understanding of the physical mechanisms of FRBs.

description: This thesis takes a holistic perspective on Indigenous language interpreting in the justice system by situating it in the linguistic, racio-political, and sociocultural context in which it occurs. Interpreting is also examined from an epistemological standpoint in order to uncover the hidden ways by which language, knowledge, and interpreting can intersect. The thesis focuses particularly on Kriol interpreting in the Katherine region and aims to elevate the voices of Indigenous language interpreters. Data is drawn from court observations, field notes, and semi-structured interviews with interpreters and legal professionals
A Retrospective Study on the Views of Alumni Entrepreneurs Towards University Enterprise Education and Training

Subjects: subject: 150304 Entrepreneurship
subject: FOS: Economics and business

description: Many institutions have an important effect on promoting entrepreneurial activities, from governments introducing policies affecting taxes, red tape and the legal system to general support and infrastructure and availability of finance (Minniti, 2008; Bruton et al., 2010; Welter and Smallbone, 2011; and Jennings et al., 2013). Differences between countries and even regions may also affect this entrepreneurial ecosystem (eg, Chen and Phillips, 2016). Universities have an important role as they can strongly influence the entrepreneurial character of a country and its economy from the graduates they produce. The ability for a student to link their area of study to the commercial world is clearly a useful skill valued by a range of employers and in general there is considerable interest in creating entrepreneurial universities and graduates (eg, Matlay, 2011; and Gibb et al., 2013). There is also an interest in entrepreneurial skills for graduates in careers where it is normal to be self-employed, such as Journalism (Baines and Kennedy, 2010)

description: This report gives an overview on the variety of purchasing cooperatives that are organized for the purpose of reducing costs and improving the quality of products and services available to members. There are often more benefits for rural communities from membership in purchasing cooperatives for products and services that are less readily available, in comparison to urban areas. Some of the potential sources of cost reductions and marketing improvements are examined for purchasing cooperatives owned and controlled by independent retailers or farm supply cooperatives. The basic steps in organizing this type of purchasing cooperative and developing its operations on a sustainable basis are reviewed.

A comparison of a first and final year UG enterprise unit: lessons from experiential learning and interdisciplinarity
Creators: name: Phillips, Robert
Publisher: name: figshare
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: 150304 Entrepreneurship
subject: FOS: Economics and business

description: Drawing from several years of experience, this work describes lessons learnt in designing, delivering and assessing two interdisciplinary enterprise units offered undergraduate students from any discipline studing at the University of Manchester (UK). Both units are electives (optional). One unit is delivered to first year undergrdaute students whereas the other unit is delivered to third/fourth year undergraduate students. Experiential learning and interdisciplinary cohorts are core aspects of both units. Students work on ‘real-world’ projects to develop a credible and competitive solution within a tight dead-line. In this paper, findings are drawn from data collected from staff and teaching assistants observations, students’ reflective diaries and students’ feedback. Findings showed that in general, students at both levels, year 1 and year 3/4, regarded the experience challenging at first due to the ‘unusual’ learning environment when compared to the education that most students have experienced prior to the units here discussed. However, most students highly regarded the interdisciplinary experiential learning experience. The paper contributes to the growth of knowledge and aids understanding of how experiential learning and interdisciplinarity have been effectively combined and introduced in the university curriculum. Although this works focused on enterprise education the experience-based guidance here described is also applicable to a much wider range of situations and academic areas of study.

description: We study the asymptotic behaviour of the Bianchi type VI$_0$ universes with a tilted $γ$-law perfect fluid. The late-time attractors are found for the full 7-dimensional state space and for several interesting invariant subspaces. In particular, it is found that for the particular value of the equation of state parameter, $γ=6/5$, there exists a bifurcation line which signals a transition of stability between a non-tilted equilibrium point to an extremely tilted equilibrium point. The initial singular regime is also discussed and we argue that the initial behaviour is chaotic for $γ<2$.

Update: Cost of Protein in Foods

Subjects: Food Consumption/Nutrition/Food Safety

description: Periodically in the National Food Review, we have provided data on the cost of selected foods per unit of protein. The data indicate that there is a wide diversity in cost for alternative protein sources. Significantly higher beef prices make this update more important this year. The number of grams of protein per pound of each item is available in "The Nutritive Value of American Foods" (Agriculture Handbook No. 456). Given prices per unit weight, simple division yields the cost per gram of nutrient. A protein unit is defined as 20 grams of protein, or one-third the daily requirement recommended for a 20-year-old male. So multiplication by 20 yields the cost per protein unit. For example, in 1978, lamb chops were approximately $3.00 per pound. A pound of lamb chops yields approximately 55 grams of protein. Hence, one would have to consume about $1.09 worth of lamb chops in order to consume a unit of protein.

description: We calculate the polarization function including only intra-Landau level correlation effects of striped Hall gas. Using the polarization function, the dielectric function, the dispersion of the plasmon and the correlation energy are computed in a random phase approximation (RPA) and generalized random phase approximation (GRPA). The plasmon becomes anisotropic and gapless owing to the anisotropy of the striped Hall gas and two dimensionality of the quantum Hall system. The plasmon approximately agrees with the phonon derived before by the single mode approximation. The (G)RPA correlation energy is compared with other numerical calculations.

description: Accountancy firms form an important element of a countries’ economic value, however, whilst there is considerable research into the service sector as a whole, there is little research which focuses specifically on accountancy firms themselves and how they innovate. This study used semi structured interviews with five senior members of different accounting firms in the US from which it was determined that the drivers of technological innovations were principally motivated by efficiency. Efficiency was important for a number of reasons. Firstly, aiding staff retention in terms of both providing feedback and allowing staff to perform less of the mundane tasks and focus on more analytical and strategic work and it was suggested younger staff members enjoyed using the new technology encouraging staff retention and job satisfaction. Secondly, staying competitive with pricing for customers was also a driver for using innovations to become more efficient, although increasing the profit margin was also suggested as savings made by innovations are not always passed on to customer (Ie value pricing), reducing the time and manual activity to do tasks was a key driver to improving the profitability of work. Thirdly, security was mentioned as an important area for innovation–both to keep confidentiality of clients’ data and to allow employees to work securely off site allowing staff flexibility in terms of working from home or at a clients’ site. The results also suggest that accounting firms engage in direct communication and collaboration with their employees, clients, alliances, and suppliers as a source of technological innovations.

description: We consider circular and elliptic quantum dots with parabolic external confinement, containing 0 - 22 electrons and with values of r_s in the range 0 < r_s < 3. We perform restricted and unrestricted Hartree-Fock calculations, and further take into account electron correlations using second-order perturbation theory. We demonstrate that in many cases correlations qualitatively change the spin structure of the ground state from that obtained under Hartree-Fock and spin-density-functional calculations. In some cases the correlation effects destroy Hund's rule. We also demonstrate that the correlations destroy static spin-density waves observed in Hartree-Fock and spin-density-functional calculations.

description: Recent x-ray absorption experiments have demonstrated the possibility to accurately monitor the magnetism of metallic hetero-structures controlled via a time-independent perturbation caused for example by a static electric field. Using a first-principles, non-equilibrium Green function scheme, we show how the measured dichroic signal for the corresponding steady-state situation can be related to the underlying electronic structure and its response to the external stimulus. The suggested approach works from the infinitesimal limit of linear response to the regime of strong electric field effects, which is realized in present experimental high sensitivity investigations.

description: In this paper, we construct a homotopy Poisson algebra of degree 3 associated to a split Lie 2-algebroid, by which we give a new approach to characterize a split Lie 2-bialgebroid. We develop the differential calculus associated to a split Lie 2-algebroid and establish the Manin triple theory for split Lie 2-algebroids. More precisely, we give the notion of a strict Dirac structure and define a Manin triple for split Lie 2-algebroids to be a CLWX 2-algebroid with two transversal strict Dirac structures. We show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between Manin triples for split Lie 2-algebroids and split Lie 2-bialgebroids. We further introduce the notion of a weak Dirac structure of a CLWX 2-algebroid and show that the graph of a Maurer-Cartan element of the homotopy Poisson algebra of degree 3 associated to a split Lie 2-bialgebroid is a weak Dirac structure. Various examples including the string Lie 2-algebra, split Lie 2-algebroids constructed from integrable distributions and left-symmetric algebroids are given.

description: Blockchain has emerged as a promising technology that can guarantee data consistency and integrity among distributed participants. It has been used in many applications of the Internet of Things (IoT). However, since IoT applications often introduce a massive number of devices into blockchain systems, the efficiency of the blockchain becomes a serious problem. In this article, we analyze the key factors affecting the efficiency of blockchain. Unlike most existing solutions that handle this from the computing perspective, we consider the problem from the communication perspective. Particularly, we propose a coordinated satellite-terrestrial network to create efficient blockchains. We also derive a network scheduling strategy for the proposed architecture. Simulation results demonstrate that the proposed system can support blockchains for higher efficiency. Moreover, several open research issues and design challenges will be discussed.

description: We present a statistical analysis of the X-ray bursts observed from the 2002 June 18 outburst of the Anomalous X-ray Pulsar (AXP) 1E 2259+586, observed with the Proportional Counter Array (PCA) aboard the Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer. We show that the properties of these bursts are similar to those of Soft Gamma-Repeaters (SGRs). The similarities we find are the burst durations follow a log-normal distribution which peaks at 99 ms, the differential burst fluence distribution is well described by a power law of index -1.7, the burst fluences are positively correlated with the burst durations, the distribution of waiting times is well described by a log-normal distribution of mean 47 s, and the bursts are generally asymmetric with faster rise than fall times. However, we find several quantitative differences between the AXP and SGR bursts. Specifically, the AXP bursts we observed exhibit a wider range of durations, the correlation between burst fluence and duration is flatter than for SGRs, the observed AXP bursts are on average less energetic than observed SGR bursts, and the more energetic AXP bursts have the hardest spectra -- the opposite of what is seen for SGRs. We conclude that the bursts are sufficiently similar that AXPs and SGRs can be considered united as a source class yet there are some interesting differences that may help determine what physically differentiates the two closely related manifestations of neutron stars.

description: This work presents a classification of all smooth 't Hooft-Jackiw-Nohl-Rebbi instantons over Gibbons-Hawking spaces. That is, we find all smooth SU(2) Yang-Mills instantons over these spaces which arise by conformal rescalings of the metric with suitable functions. Since the Gibbons-Hawking spaces are hyper-Kahler gravitational instantons, the rescaling functions must be positive harmonic. By using twistor methods we present integral formulae for the kernel of the Laplacian associated to these spaces. These integrals are generalizations of the classical Whittaker-Watson formula. By the aid of these we prove that all 't Hooft instantons have already been found in a recent paper. This result also shows that actually all such smooth 't Hooft-Jackiw-Nohl-Rebbi instantons describe singular magnetic monopoles over the flat three-space with zero magnetic charge moreover the reducible ones generate the the full L^2 cohomology of the Gibbons-Hawking spaces.

subject: 150399 Business and Management not elsewhere classified

description: It is accepted by most agencies that enterprise education is important for students and for the economy, however it is often difficult to measure the effectiveness of this education as effects can take many years to be shown. We have collected qualitative data from over 300 alumni entrepreneurs, reflecting on their time at the Univeristy of Manchester, which suggested that their experiences of enterprise education were mixed and that they would have benefitted from more practical courses rather than more academically interesting topics. For example they wanted training on how to register a company, understanding tax, employment law and basic book keeping, rather than how to generate ideas and theories of innovation and entrepreneurship. There is a clear need to shift some enterprise education to cater for those who have an idea now and need practical advice, or may have an idea in the future from their subject area and need to know how to proceed formally. On curricular courses are more likely to be academically and theory driven, especially with the need to provide appropriate assessment for students, whilst it is often the extra curricular activities which provide more practical details in how to start a business, which may not be open to all students, or may not be well advertised. Since many students don’t start a business until later in life, with activity peaking in the 35-60 year old age group, they often do not take advantage of these opportunities while at university, should they be available.

description: In this paper, we propose a novel end-to-end approach for AI-assisted code completion called Pythia. It generates ranked lists of method and API recommendations which can be used by software developers at edit time. The system is currently deployed as part of Intellicode extension in Visual Studio Code IDE. Pythia exploits state-of-the-art large-scale deep learning models trained on code contexts extracted from abstract syntax trees. It is designed to work at a high throughput predicting the best matching code completions on the order of 100 $ms$. We describe the architecture of the system, perform comparisons to frequency-based approach and invocation-based Markov Chain language model, and discuss challenges serving Pythia models on lightweight client devices. The offline evaluation results obtained on 2700 Python open source software GitHub repositories show a top-5 accuracy of 92\%, surpassing the baseline models by 20\% averaged over classes, for both intra and cross-project settings.

description: We describe a family of words in Thompson's group F which present a challenge to the question of finding canonical minimal length representatives, and which show that F is not combable by geodesics. These words have the property that there are only two possible suffixes of long lengths for geodesic paths to the word from the identity; one is of the form $g^k$ and the other of the form $g^{-k}$ where g is a generator of the group.

title: Electronic waste (e-waste) science and advocacy at Agbogbloshie: the making and effects of "The world's largest e-waste dump"
Creators: name: Akese, Grace Abena
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
Year: 2019

description: Over the last two decades, e-waste has become a crisis, receiving significant attention from activist, environmental groups, policymakers, news media, and academics. E-waste processing hubs in Africa and Asia pejoratively labelled “digital dumps” are at the center of the so-called crisis. This dissertation is about Agbogbloshie, a site in Accra, the capital of Ghana, ostensibly “the world’s largest e-waste dump.” I examine the making of this iconic imaginary of Agbogbloshie, the grounds on which it is built, and the effects of its circulation. Broadly, I investigate the knowledge-making practices central to representations of Agbogbloshie as “problem space” in need of interventions. I explore how advocacy groups, institutions (academic scholars), and individuals frame the content and relevance of knowledge about the site to elicit certain forms of interventions and how within this context, the knowledge they produce itself becomes a site of struggle around which contentious politics take place. I demonstrate that although the intention is to make visible the environmental and health effects of e-waste processing, the imaginaries produced about Agbogbloshie within ewaste science and advocacy do certain kinds of harm. Imaginaries of Agbogbloshie such as it is “the world’s largest e-waste dump” are not just representations; they do work, including adding to the harms experienced by those who live and work at the site. Questioning imaginaries of e-waste at Agbogbloshie, I open spaces where the tensions of Agbogbloshie as a site of/for e-waste science and advocacy can be more carefully thought through and done differently.
title: MD Simulations of Collision Effects for a Strongly Coupled Plasma
Creators: name: Jo, Jawon
Publisher: name: Utah State University

description: Studying strongly coupled plasmas can be effectively accomplished using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. We have developed an advanced MD simulation code that can analyze plasmas with various coupling parameters. This code employs a spherically symmetric cut-off Coulomb force verified through convergence tests by modulating the cut-off and minimum force ranges. Additionally, it incorporates a new algorithm for optimizing the initial positions of particles at a given temperature. This method maintains the temperature constant and the velocity distribution unchanged. As a result, we eliminate the unphysical initial rises and oscillations in temperature that a random distribution of positions causes. The code also utilizes the Monte Carlo method to achieve the desired velocity distribution with a given initial moments. The computational efficiency of the MD simulations is significantly enhanced by using graphics processing units (GPUs) for parallel computing.
By employing these advanced initialization methods for particle positions and velocities, we can measure the relaxation times of various non-Maxwellian moments across different coupling parameters. The collision coefficients obtained from these measurements are then compared with theoretical values. Furthermore, the code investigates the oscillations of higher-order moments in a magnetized plasma. By applying an appropriate linear combination of moment components, we can extract eigenmodes with single frequencies from these oscillations.
This work provides a cornerstone for studying strongly coupled plasmas by presenting a intuitive method for constructing the fundamental characteristic of collisions in a many-body system, the collision matrices.
Dust masses and star formation in bright IRAS galaxies Application of a physical model for the interpretation of FIR observations

description: We address the problem of modeling the far-infrared (FIR) spectrum and deriving the star-formation rate (SFR) and the dust mass of spiral galaxies. We use the realistic physical model of Popescu et al. (2000) to describe the overall ultra-violet (UV), optical and FIR spectral energy distribution (SED) of a spiral galaxy. The model has only three free parameters: SFR, dust mass, and the fraction of the UV radiation which is absorbed locally by dense dust in the HII regions. Using this model, we are able to fit well the FIR spectra of 62 bright, IRAS galaxies from the "SCUBA Local Universe Galaxy Survey" of Dunne et al.(2000). As a result, we are able to determine, among others, their SFR and dust mass. We find that, on average, the SFR (in absolute units), the star-formation efficiency, the SFR surface density, and the ratio of FIR luminosity over the total intrinsic luminosity, are larger than the respective values of typical spiral galaxies of the same morphological type. We also find that the mean gas-to-dust mass ratio is close to the Galactic value, while the average central face-on optical depth of these galaxies in the V band is 2.3. Finally, we find a strong correlation between SFR or dust mass and observed FIR quantities like total FIR luminosity or FIR luminosity at 100 and 850 $\mathrm{μm}$. These correlations yield well defined relations, which can be used to determine a spiral galaxy's SFR and dust-mass content from FIR observations.

description: The collision-induced fundamental vibration-rotation band at 6.4 um is the most significant absorption feature from O2 in the infrared (Timofeyev and Tonkov, 1978; Rinslandet al., 1982, 1989), yet it has not been previously incorporated into exoplanet spectral analyses for several reasons. Either CIAs were not included or incomplete/obsolete CIA databases were used. Also, the current version of HITRAN does not include CIAs at 6.4 um with other collision partners (O2-X). We include O2-X CIA features in our transmission spectroscopy simulations by parameterizing the 6.4 um O2-N2 CIA based on Rinsland et al.(1989) and the O2-CO2 CIA based on Baranov et al. (2004). Here we report that the O2-X CIA may be the most detectable O2 feature for transit observations. For a potentialTRAPPIST-1e analogue system within 5 pc of the Sun, it could be the only O2 detectable signature with JWST (using MIRI LRS) for a modern Earth-like cloudy atmosphere with biological quantities of O2. Also, we show that the 6.4 um O2-X CIA would be prominent for O2-rich desiccated atmospheres (Luger and Barnes, 2015) and could be detectable with JWST in just a few transits. For systems beyond 5 pc, this feature could therefore be a powerful discriminator of uninhabited planets with non-biological "false positive" O2 in their atmospheres - as they would only be detectable at those higher O2 pressures.

Optical extinction due to intrinsic structural variations of photonic crystals

description: Unavoidable variations in size and position of the building blocks of photonic crystals cause light scattering and extinction of coherent beams. We present a new model for both 2 and 3-dimensional photonic crystals that relates the extinction length to the magnitude of the variations. The predicted lengths agree well with our new experiments on high-quality opals and inverse opals, and with literature data analyzed by us. As a result, control over photons is limited to distances up to 50 lattice parameters ($\sim 15 μ$m) in state-of-the-art structures, thereby impeding large-scale applications such as integrated circuits. Conversely, scattering in photonic crystals may lead to novel physics such as Anderson localization and non-classical diffusion.

description: Hard constraints imposed in statistical mechanics models can lead to interesting thermodynamical behaviors, but may at the same time raise obstructions in the thoroughfare to thermal equilibration. Here we study a variant of Baxter's 3-color model in which local interactions and defects are included, and discuss its connection to triangular arrays of Josephson junctions of superconductors and \textit{kagomé} networks of superconducting wires. The model is equivalent to an Ising model in a hexagonal lattice with the constraint that the magnetization of each hexagon is $\pm 6$ or 0. For ferromagnetic interactions, we find that the system is critical for a range of temperatures (critical line) that terminates when it undergoes an exotic first order phase transition with a jump from a zero magnetization state into the fully magnetized state at finite temperature. Dynamically, however, we find that the system becomes frozen into domains. The domain walls are made of perfectly straight segments, and domain growth appears frozen within the time scales studied with Monte Carlo simulations. This dynamical obstruction has its origin in the topology of the allowed reconfigurations in phase space, which consist of updates of closed loops of spins. As a consequence of the dynamical obstruction, there exists a dynamical temperature, lower than the (avoided) static critical temperature, at which the system is seen to jump from a ``supercooled liquid'' to a ``polycrystalline'' phase. In contrast, for antiferromagnetic interactions, we argue that the system orders for infinitesimal coupling because of the constraint, and we observe no interesting dynamical effects.
