description: This thesis seeks to explore and understand how people perceive and experience thevillage pub. There has, over the course of time, been a general decline in the social andeconomic importance of the village pub as well as in their number. The decline innumber has accelerated in recent years and been the focus of much media attention withsome reports claiming that it has negative consequences for rural life (see, for example,Hill, 2008; Scruton, 2006). Despite this there has been very little social science researchconducted on this topic. This research helps to fill this knowledge gap. By usingempirical data, principally collected in villages in Lincolnshire and from various groups(mainly newcomer residents, long-standing residents and publicans) to explore multiplerepresentations of the village pub this thesis provides an in-depth exploration andinterpretation of the values underpinning the research participants’ representations andexperiences of the village pub. In doing this, the thesis shows that village pubs are seenand experienced as adding value of different kinds – economic, social, and cultural, andthat the different groups attach different levels of importance to these kinds of value. Italso shows that, whilst the different kinds of value can work in the Bourdieusianinterpretation as capital, and be self-expanding and inter-convertible, they can also workto undermine one another. By showing how the village pub is seen through the lens ofnostalgia and the rural idyll and that contradictions exist between how the village pub isremembered or imagined and how it ‘really’ is, this thesis contributes to rural studiesliterature and, more specifically, to that which engages with the cultural turn as well asto pub literature. The thesis also offers a contribution to practice. It does this first, byimparting knowledge, to different groups, on the types (economic, social and cultural)of diversification that can be used to help sustain village pubs, especially inLincolnshire; and second, by showing those groups that beliefs and practices arounddiversification have important consequences for the sustainability of village pubs.
Improving the Compact Bit-Sliced Signature Index COBS for Large Scale Genomic Data
Creators: name: Ferizovic, Daniel
Publisher: name: Karlsruhe
Year: 2020

description: In this thesis we investigate the potential for improving the Compact Bit-Sliced Signature Index (COBS) [BBGI19] for large scale genomic data. COBS was developed by Bingmann et al. and is an inverted text index based on Bloom filters. It can be used to index k-mers of DNA samples or q-grams of plain text data and is queried using approximate pattern matching based on the k-mer (or q-gram) profile of a query. In their work Bingmann et al. demonstrated a couple of advantages COBS has over other state of the art approximate k-mer-based indices, some of which are extraordinary fast query and construction times, but as well as the fact that COBS can be constructed and queried even if the index does not fit into main memory. This is one of the reasons we decided to look more closely at some areas we could improve COBS. Our main goal is to make COBS more scalable. Scalability is a very important factor when it comes to handling DNA related data. This is because the amount of sequenced data stored in publicly available archives nearly doubles every year, making it difficult to handle even from the perspective of resources alone. We focus on two main areas in which we try to improve COBS. Those are index compression through clustering and distribution. The thesis presents our findings and improvements achieved in respect to those areas.
Pulse propagation in one-dimensional disordered photonic crystals: Interplay of disorder with instantaneous and relaxing nonlinearities
Creators: name: Novitsky, Denis
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Optics (physics.optics)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Propagation of ultrashort light pulses in disordered multilayers is studied by using numerical simulations in time domain. We consider cases of instantaneous and noninstantaneous Kerr nonlinearities of the structure materials. The competitive nature of disorder and nonlinearity is revealed on the long and short timescales. We also pay special attention to the effect of pulse self-trapping in the photonic crystal with relaxing nonlinearity and show the dependence of this effect on the level of disorder. We believe that the results reported here will be useful not only in the field of optics but also from the standpoint of the general problem of classical waves propagation in nonlinear disordered periodic media.

description: The exponential growth in mobile data traffic, anticipated to reach a 1000-fold increase over the next decade, and the large diversity of applications - ranging from low bit-rate and low power machine-to-machine (M2M) applications to highly interactive and high-resolution entertainment applications - impose a number of distinct technical requirements on hardware (HW) and software (SW) platforms, where all mobile communication and related functionalities are implemented and executed. Among the most prominent requirements, the following must be highlighted: the further improvement of quality of experience (e.g., capacity, latency, resilience) and the energy efficiency, as well as the scalability, modularity, and reconfigurability when multiple radio access technologies (RATs) are considered.

The global macroecology of penguin distribution and conservation
Creators: name: Hickcox, Rachel

Year: 2023
Subjects: C180 - Ecology

description: Current global biodiversity crises have reinforced the urgency to accurately quantify macroecological patterns of species distributions with the aim to develop efficient evidence-based protection strategies. The establishment of protected areas (PAs) is one of the major approaches to mitigate biodiversity declines during the Anthropocene. However, the distribution of biodiversity (e.g., hotspots, threatened species) is spatially asymmetric among regions and lineages, and the extent to which PAs offer an effective method for species and ecosystem protection remains uncertain. Penguins, broadly regarded as prime indicators of environmental health, are emerging as priority organisms for such quantitative assessments. The vast majority of all 18 penguin species are suffering population declines, and 11 of them are considered vulnerable/endangered given environmental and anthropogenic threats. However, how protected are penguins globally? Using spatial ecology approaches, we create novel distribution, hotspot, and endemism maps for all penguin species on Earth. We use these data to quantitatively assess the protection offered by PAs validated by the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) and other national/international organizations. We then create a universal target protection model which predicts the appropriate protection level required for each individual species based on population and range size (both predominant factors underlying population stability). For six species, less than 20% of their range is protected. PAs are only related to range size, whereas other parameters critically linked to population stability such as population size and IUCN conservation status are insignificant. Half of the nine global hotspots of penguin diversity are underprotected, and protection for 10 species is less than the calculated target protection. Consequently, global protection of penguins is not satisfactory. We suggest that more comprehensive ways to account for the multi-dimensional interactions between areas and organisms are needed to further the effectiveness of PA networks.

description: Identifying weakly coupled nuclear spins around single electron spins is a key step of implementing quantum information processing using coupled electron-nuclei spin systems or sensing like single spin nuclear magnetic resonance detection using diamond defect spins. Dynamical decoupling control of the center electron spin with periodic pulse sequences [e.g., the Carre-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) sequence] has been successfully used to identify single nuclear spins and to resolve structure of nuclear spin clusters. Here, we design a new type of pulse sequences by replacing the repetition unit (a single $π$-pulse) of the CPMG sequence with a group of nonuniformly-spaced $π$-pulses. Using nitrogen-vacancy center system in diamond, we show that the designed pulse sequence improves the resolution of nuclear spin noise spectroscopy, and more information about the surrounding nuclear spins is extracted. The principle of dynamical decoupling design proposed in this paper is useful in many systems (e.g., defect spin qubit in solids, trapped ion and superconducting qubit) for high-resolution noise spectroscopy.

description: Parameter-elliptic boundary-value problems are investigated on the extended Sobolev scale. This scale consists of all Hilbert spaces that are interpolation spaces with respect to the Hilbert Sobolev scale. The latter are the Hörmander spaces $B_{2,k}$ for which the smoothness index $k$ is an arbitrary radial function RO-varying at infinity. We prove that the operator corresponding to this problem sets isomorphisms between appropriate Hörmander spaces provided that the absolute value of the parameter is large enough. For solutions to the problem, we establish two-sided estimates, in which the constants are independent of the parameter.

description: We develop a formalism to calculate the fluctuation-induced interactions in periodic systems. The formalism, which combines the scattering theory with the C method borrowed from electromagnetic gratings studies, is suitable and efficient for the calculation of the Casimir forces involving surface relief gratings. We apply the developed technique to obtain the energy and lateral force for simple 1-D sinusoidal gratings. Using this formalism we derived known asymptotic expressions that were previously obtained through perturbative approximations. At close separation, our numerical results match those obtained by the proximity force approximation and its first correction using the derivative expansion.

description: The spin relaxation induced by the Elliott-Yafet mechanism and the extrinsic spin Hall conductivity due to the skew-scattering are investigated in 5d transition-metal ultrathin films with self-adatom impurities as scatterers. The values of the Elliott-Yafet parameter and of the spin-flip relaxation rate reveal a correlation with each other that is in agreement with the Elliott approximation. At 10-layer thickness, the spin-flip relaxation time in 5d transition-metal films is quantitatively reported about few hundred nanoseconds at atomic percent which is one and two orders of magnitude shorter than that in Au and Cu thin films, respectively. The anisotropy effect of the Elliott-Yafet parameter and of the spin-flip relaxation rate with respect to the direction of the spin-quantization axis in relation to the crystallographic axes is also analyzed. We find that the anisotropy of the spin-flip relaxation rate is enhanced due to the Rashba surface states on the Fermi surface, reaching values as high as 97% in 10-layer Hf(0001) film or 71% in 10-layer W(110) film. Finally, the spin Hall conductivity as well as the spin Hall angle due to the skew-scattering off self-adatom impurities are calculated using the Boltzmann approach. Our calculations employ a relativistic version of the first-principles full-potential Korringa-Kohn-Rostoker Green function method.

Subjects: F350 - Medical physics

description: Abnormal tortuosity of retinal blood vessels is one of the early indicators of a numberof vascular diseases. Therefore early detection and evaluation of this phenomenoncan provide a window for early diagnosis and treatment. Currently clinicians rely ona qualitative gross scale to estimate the degree of vessel tortuosity. There have beenmany attempts to develop an accurate automated measure of tortuosity, yet it seemsthat none of these measures has gained universal acceptance. This can be attributedto the fact that descriptions and de?nitions of retinal vessel tortuosity are ambiguousand non-standard. In addition uni?ed public datasets for di?erent disease are notregularly available. I have propose a tortuosity evaluation framework in order toquantify the tortuosity of arteries and veins in two dimensional colour fundus images.The quanti?cation methods within the framework include retinal vessel morphologyanalysis based on the measurements of 66 features of blood vessels. These featuresare grouped as follows: 1) Structural properties 2) Distance approach features 3)Curvature approach features 4) Combined approach features 5) Signal approachfeatures. The features numbered 1 to 4 above are derived from literature. Itemnumber ?ve are new features which I have proposed and developed in this thesis.These features have been evaluated using a manually graded retinal tortuositydataset as controlled set. I have also built three tortuosity datasets, each ofwhich contains two manual gradings. These datasets are: 1) A general tortuositydataset 2) A diabetic retinopathy dataset 3) A hypertensive retinopathy dataset. Inaddition, I have investigated the di?erences in tortuosity patterns in hypertensiveand diabetic retinopathy. New pathology based datasets were used in this investigation.These are the major contributions of this thesis

description: Coherent spin-dependent transport through a junction containing of Normal/Ferromagnetic/Normal bilayer graphene nanoribbon with zigzag edges is investigated by using Landauer formalism. In a more realistic set-up, the exchange field is induced by two ferromagnetic insulator strips deposited on the ribbon edges while a perpendicular electric field is applied by the top gated electrodes. Our results show that, for antiparallel configuration, a band gap is opened giving rise a semiconducting behavior, while for parallel configuration, the band structure has no band gap. As a result, a giant magnetoresistance is achievable by changing the alignment of induced magnetization. Application of a perpendicular electric field on the parallel configuration, results in a spin field-effect transistor where a fully spin polarization occurs around the Dirac point. To be comparable our results with the one for monolayer graphene, we demonstrate that the reflection symmetry and so the parity conservation fails in bilayer graphene nanoribbons with the zigzag edges.

description: The effects of confinement resonances on photoelectron group delay (Wigner time delay) following ionization of an atom encapsulated inside a C$_{60}$ cage have been studied theoretically using both relativistic and non-relativistic random phase approximations. The results indicate clearly the resonant character of the confinement oscillations in time delay of the $4d$ shell of Xe@C$_{60}$ and present a most direct manifestation of Wigner time delay. These oscillations were missed in a previous theoretical investigation of Ar@C$_{60}$ [PRL 111, 203003 (2013)]

description: Wireless sensor networks consist of hundreds to thousands of sensor nodes and are widely used in civilian and security applications. One of the serious physical attacks faced by the wireless sensor network is node clone attack. Thus two node clone detection protocols are introduced via distributed hash table and randomly directed exploration to detect node clones. The former is based on a hash table value which is already distributed and provides key based facilities like checking and caching to detect node clones. The later one is using probabilistic directed forwarding technique and border determination. The simulation results for storage consumption, communication cost and detection probability is done using NS2 and obtained randomly directed exploration is the best one having low communication cost and storage consumption and has good detection probability. Keywords: wireless sensor networks (wsn), distributed hash table, randomly directed exploration.

Dynamical behaviour of multiplanet systems close to their stability limit

Subjects: subject: Earth and Planetary Astrophysics (astro-ph.EP)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The dynamics of systems of two and three planets, initially placed on circular and nearly coplanar orbits, is explored in the proximity of their stability limit. The evolution of a large number of systems is numerically computed and their dynamical behaviour is investigated with the frequency map analysis as chaos indicator. Following the guidance of this analysis, it is found that for two-planet systems the dependence of the Hill limit on the planet mass, usually made explicit through the Hill's radius parametrization, does not appear to be fully adequate. In addition, frequent cases of stable chaos are found in the proximity of the Hill limit. For three-planet systems, the usual approach adopted in numerical explorations of their stability, where the planets are initially separated by multiples of the mutual Hill radius, appears too reducing. A detailed sampling of the parameter space reveals that systems with more packed inner planets are stable well within previous estimates of the stability limit. This suggests that a two-dimensional approach is needed to outline when three-planet systems are dynamically stable.

description: Luminescence in Eu$^{2+}$ activated materials corresponds to a transition from an excited state where the lowest Eu 5$d$ level is filled with one electron (often called the (Eu$^{2+}$)$^*$ state) to the ground state with half-filled 4$f$ shell with seven electrons of the same spin. We have performed theoretical calculations based on Density Functional Theory to determine the ground state band structure of Eu-doped materials as well as study the (Eu$^{2+}$)$^*$ excited state. Calculations were performed on Eu doped materials, experimentally known to be either scintillators or non-scintillators, in order to relate theoretically calculable parameters to experimentally observed properties. Applying criteria previously developed for Ce-doped systems (A.Canning, A. Chaudhry, R. Boutchko and N. Grønbech-Jensen, Phys. Rev. B Vol.83, 125115 (2011)) to new Eu-doped materials we developed a list of candidate materials for new bright Eu activated scintillators. Ba$_2$CsBr$_5$:Eu is an example of a new bright scintillator from our candidate list that has been synthesized in microcrystalline powder form. As discussed in our previous paper on Ce-doped materials this approach was designed as a systematic high-throughput method to aid in the discovery of new bright scintillator materials by prioritization and down-selection on the large number of potential new materials.

Iron-line and continuum variations in the XMM-Newton and Suzaku spectra of the neutron-star low-mass X-ray binary 4U 1636-53

description: We used six simultaneous XMM-Newton and Rossi X-ray Timing Explorer plus five Suzaku observations to study the continuum spectrum and the iron emission line in the neutron-star low-mass X-ray binary 4U 1636-53. We modelled the spectra with two thermal components (representing the accretion disc and boundary layer), a Comptonised component (representing a hot corona), and either a Gaussian or a relativistic line component to model an iron emission line at about 6.5 keV. For the relativistic line component we used either the diskline, laor or kyrline model, the latter for three different values of the spin parameter. The fitting results for the continuum are consistent with the standard truncated disc scenario. We also find that the flux and equivalent width of the iron line first increase and then decrease as the flux of the Comptonised component increases. This could be explained either by changes in the ionisation state of the accretion disc where the line is produced by reflection, or by light bending of the emission from the Comptonised component if the height at which this component is produced changes with mass accretion rate.

description: Dynamic treatment regimes in oncology and other disease areas often can be characterized by an alternating sequence of treatments or other actions and transition times between disease states. The sequence of transition states may vary substantially from patient to patient, depending on how the regime plays out, and in practice there often are many possible counterfactual outcome sequences. For evaluating the regimes, the mean final overall time may be expressed as a weighted average of the means of all possible sums of successive transitions times. A common example arises in cancer therapies where the transition times between various sequences of treatments, disease remission, disease progression, and death characterize overall survival time. For the general setting, we propose estimating mean overall outcome time by assuming a Bayesian nonparametric regression model for the logarithm of each transition time. A dependent Dirichlet process prior with Gaussian process base measure (DDP-GP) is assumed, and a joint posterior is obtained by Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) sampling. We provide general guidelines for constructing a prior using empirical Bayes methods. We compare the proposed approach with inverse probability of treatment weighting. These comparisons are done by simulation studies of both single-stage and multi-stage regimes, with treatment assignment depending on baseline covariates. The method is applied to analyze a dataset arising from a clinical trial involving multi-stage chemotherapy regimes for acute leukemia. An R program for implementing the DDP-GP-based Bayesian nonparametric analysis is freely available at https://www.ma.utexas.edu/users/yxu/.

For all FS anisotropies, the chiral Scharnberg-Klemm state $B_{c2}(θ,ϕ,T)$ exceeds that of the chiral Anderson-Brinkman-Morel state, and exhibits a kink at $θ=θ^{*}(T,ϕ)$, indicative of a first-order transition from its chiral, nodal-direction behavior to its non-chiral, antinodal-direction behavior. Applicability to Sr$_2$RuO$_4$, UCoGe, and topological superconductors such as Cu$_x$Bi$_2$Se$_3$ is discussed.

description: Two-mode model of spin-torque nano-oscillator (STNO) under the action of thermal noise is considered. Langevin equations for mode amplitudes were derived starting from general nonlinear oscillator model. Stationary probability distribution function describing mean mode generation powers was obtained using Fokker-Planck equation. It was shown that thermal noise can lead to two-mode generation in STNO. An increase of thermal noise power leads to excitation of the second mode in a system and to a two-mode generation regime through intermediate state when two modes coexist only in some range of the applied currents.

description: Monatomic metal (e.g. silver) structures could form preferably at graphene edges. We explore their structural and electronic properties by performing density functional theory based first-principles calculations. The results show that cohesion between metal atoms, as well as electronic coupling between metal atoms and graphene edges offer remarkable structural stability of the hybrid. We find that the outstanding mechanical properties of graphene allow tunable properties of the metal monatomic structures by straining the structure. The concept is extended to metal rings and helices that form at open ends of carbon nanotubes and edges of twisted graphene ribbons. These findings demostrate the role of graphene edges as an efficient one-dimensional template for low-dimensional metal structures that are mechanotunable.

title: Towards a mature science of other minds

description: From humble beginnings, minds in the natural world have come to take on endless forms. Yet, our best way of studying these minds has come up short. By its own lights, comparative cognitive science has repeatedly struggled to achieve the goals that it has set out for itself. Why is this, and what can be done about it? This dissertation is directed at answering these questions. It does so in two parts. The first addresses the issue of replication; both the looming threat that a replication crisis holds for comparative cognitive science as well as the broader issue of what a replication is. Here, a deflationary account of replication is defended. This view is argued to hold implications for the practice of replication, interpreting replicability as a demarcation criterion, evaluating the replication crisis across the sciences, and evaluating results of replication experiments. Moreover, this analysis holds direct consequences for the evaluation of evidence in comparative cognitive science. Most pointedly, it is not ‘mature’ enough to experience a genuine replication crisis. Nevertheless, replication experiments, when properly framed, can still make valuable contributions to the discipline. The second part builds on the analysis in the first and shows how comparative cognitive science is inhibited by what is termed the ‘validity cycle’. Here, the causes of the validity cycle are initially identified (weak theory, underspecified hypotheses, and underdetermined experiments). Then, four ameliorative proposals that have been made are introduced and their shortcomings are analyzed. These are (1) adopting a bottom-up approach, (2) breaking cognitive capacities into dimensions, (3) formalizing the theories, and (4) identifying signatures of cognitive capacities. Modified versions of each are introduced. Taken together, it is argued that these modified proposals represent the most promising way forward for the science particularly when run simultaneously in a complementary manner.
Intermediality and Immersion in Gaudenzio Ferrari’s "Adoration of the Magi" in Chapel V of the Sacred Mountain of Varallo
Creators: name: Tononi, Fabio
Publisher: name: PsicoArt – Rivista on line di arte e psicologia
Year: 2020

description: This study proposes that intermediality in Renaissance art makes a strong impact on both the aesthetic space and the beholder’s attention, memory, and imagination. It does so by focusing on the vision of the Adoration of the Magi that Gaudenzio Ferrari realised in Chapel V of the Sacred Mountain of Varallo. As suggested in the handbook Garden of Prayer, which stresses the relation between the beholder’s mind and the stories perceived, the dialogue among the arts converging in Gaudenzio’s image serves a specific purpose, namely, to facilitate immersion in the scene observed. The impact of intermediality on the observer is enhanced by the verisimilitude of both the statuary and painted figures. As empirical evidence suggests, certain types of responses (e.g., surprise, approach, or withdrawal) seem to be involved during the contemplation of similar aesthetic spaces, depending on where the viewers focus their attention, activating specific neural networks in the observers’ brain. Furthermore, intermediality seems to drive high levels of visual attention; consequently, what is stored in the memory is greater for experiences of intermediality than for typical aesthetic experiences, thus confirming the statements on memory contained in the Garden of Prayer.

Caring-With Dialogic Sculptures. A Post-Disciplinary Investigation into Forms of Attachment
Creators: name: Cologni, Elena
Publisher: name: PsicoArt – Rivista on line di arte e psicologia
Year: 2020

description: The ‘art practice as research as art’ discussed set out to investigate through dialogic art how identity formation is linked with micro-social experiences and place. The project “Seeds of Attachment” by Elena Cologni is centered around a newly developed non-verbal strategy in the form of a sculptural prop, informed by psychologist Margaret Lowenfeld’s “Mosaic Test” (1938-1954), and discussed in relation to historical precedents in socially engaged art. The activation of the prop during encounters with ‘mothers’ on the school-run route, aimed at offering a context for an understanding of how their attachment to their children influenced the development of an attachment to place. This relational approach is defined as caring with, and underpinned by care ethics and ecofeminism. The implications of the adopted non-verbal dialogic artistic approach are considered in relation to new forms of gendered spatial practices to research on place, including affordances of place, and how these might lead to future post-disciplinary research.

Asymptotics of Fingerprinting and Group Testing: Tight Bounds from Channel Capacities

description: In this work we consider the large-coalition asymptotics of various fingerprinting and group testing games, and derive explicit expressions for the capacities for each of these models. We do this both for simple decoders (fast but suboptimal) and for joint decoders (slow but optimal). For fingerprinting, we show that if the pirate strategy is known, the capacity often decreases linearly with the number of colluders, instead of quadratically as in the uninformed fingerprinting game. For many attacks the joint capacity is further shown to be strictly higher than the simple capacity. For group testing, we improve upon known results about the joint capacities, and derive new explicit asymptotics for the simple capacities. These show that existing simple group testing algorithms are suboptimal, and that simple decoders cannot asymptotically be as efficient as joint decoders. For the traditional group testing model, we show that the gap between the simple and joint capacities is a factor 1.44 for large numbers of defectives.

description: We evaluated computational reproducibility in randomly selected studies published in the two main North American wildlife journals, the Wildlife Society Bulletin and the Journal of Wildlife Management. Challenges to reproducibility mostly arose from obtaining and processing raw data. Our results highlight the need for increased awareness and transparency throughout the entire data analysis and publication process. This presentation was given to attendees of the Living Norway Colloquium in October 2020.
Kramers escape rate in overdamped systems with the power-law distribution

description: Kramers escape rate in the overdamped systems with the power-law distribution is studied. By using the mean first passage time, we derive the escape rate for the power-law distribution and obtain the Kramers' infinite barrier escape rate in this case. It is shown that the escape rate for the power-law distribution extends the Kramers' overdamped result to the relatively low barrier. Furthermore, we apply the escape rate for the power-law distribution to the unfolding of titin and show a better agreement with the experimental rate than the traditional escape rate.

description: We give a detailed account of the theoretical analysis and the experimental results of an x-ray-diffraction experiment on quantum-state selected and strongly laser-aligned gas-phase ensembles of the prototypical large asymmetric rotor molecule 2,5-diiodobenzonitrile, performed at the Linac Coherent Light Source [Phys. Rev. Lett. 112, 083002 (2014)]. This experiment is the first step toward coherent diffractive imaging of structures and structural dynamics of isolated molecules at atomic resolution, i. e., picometers and femtoseconds, using x-ray free-electron lasers.

description: Considering the photoionization of Ar@C60, we predict resonant femtosecond decays of both Ar and C60 vacancies through the continua of atom-fullerene hybrid final states. The resulting resonances emerge from the interference between simultaneous autoionizing and intercoulombic decay (ICD) processes. For Ar 3s-->np excitations, these resonances are far stronger than the Ar-to-C60 resonant ICDs, while for C60 excitations they are strikingly larger than the corresponding Auger features. The results indicate the power of hybridization to enhance decay rates, and modify lifetimes and line profiles.
