The Value of Experience: Analyzing Predictors for Success in the NCAA Women's Basketball Tournament
Creators: name: Roberts, Elizabeth
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: Every year, the National Collegiate Athletic Association hosts a 68-team women’s basketball tournament, culminating in the winner being crowned National Champion. Many stakeholders are invested in the outcome of these tournament games, including coaches, bracket analysts, media outlets, and more. Amongst these stakeholders, there is a commonly held assumption that teams with more experience have an advantage over inexperienced teams. Therefore, this study sought to examine the validity of the experience assumption as well as identify additional factors for success in the postseason tournament. This is a replication of a study done on the men’s basketball tournament in order to determine whether findings relative to successful teams in the men’s tournament are generalizable to the women’s tournament. Findings suggest that having more prior postseason experience improves a team’s chances of winning a game in the tournament in addition to improving their margin of victory.

description: Wireless communication networks are closely intertwined with the very fabric of both civilian and military environments, and their continued growth and well-being is critical to the success and health of our nation. Today's wireless communication industry worldwide is a trillion-dollar business that represents a substantial fraction of the global economy. Over the past two decades, it has had a transformative impact on our society and has revolutionized almost all aspects of human interaction. Through the use of smartphones, personal tablets and increasing number of wireless-based sensors in our environments, wireless networking systems touch every aspect of human lives today. Nonetheless, with exponential spread of mobile wireless devices, continued improvements in spectrum utilization, resource allocation, hardware miniaturization, and development of new renewable energy sources, we find ourselves still very much in the infancy of the development of such networks, which have the potential to grow and become orders-of-magnitude more sophisticated.

description: The analysis of data in which multiple languages are represented has gained popularity among computational linguists in recent years. So far, much of this research focuses mainly on the improvement of computational methods and largely ignores linguistic and social aspects of C-S discussed across a wide range of languages within the long-established literature in linguistics. To fill this gap, we offer a survey of code-switching (C-S) covering the literature in linguistics with a reflection on the key issues in language technologies. From the linguistic perspective, we provide an overview of structural and functional patterns of C-S focusing on the literature from European and Indian contexts as highly multilingual areas. From the language technologies perspective, we discuss how massive language models fail to represent diverse C-S types due to lack of appropriate training data, lack of robust evaluation benchmarks for C-S (across multilingual situations and types of C-S) and lack of end-to-end systems that cover sociolinguistic aspects of C-S as well. Our survey will be a step towards an outcome of mutual benefit for computational scientists and linguists with a shared interest in multilingualism and C-S.

description: On timescales that greatly exceed an orbital period, typical planetary orbits evolve in a stochastic yet stable fashion. On even longer timescales, however, planetary orbits can spontaneously transition from bounded to unbound chaotic states. Large-scale instabilities associated with such behavior appear to play a dominant role in shaping the architectures of planetary systems, including our own. Here we show how such transitions are possible, focusing on the specific case of the long-term evolution of Mercury. We develop a simple analytical model for Mercury's dynamics and elucidate the origins of its short term stochastic behavior as well as of its sudden progression to unbounded chaos. Our model allows us to estimate the timescale on which this transition is likely to be triggered, i.e. the dynamical lifetime of the Solar System as we know it. The formulated theory is consistent with the results of numerical simulations and is broadly applicable to extrasolar planetary systems dominated by secular interactions. These results constitute a significant advancement in our understanding of the processes responsible for sculpting of the dynamical structures of generic planetary systems.

description: Throughout its history, humankind has been fascinated by a question that is simple to pose, yet remarkably resistant to resolution: "How does the brain work?" Philosophers have debated the workings of the mind for centuries. Da Vinci made detailed sketches of the brain. By the turn of the century, scientists began to understand some of the brain's basic structure and function. Today, we can image and record brain activity from the neural to whole-brain level. Yet, divining how the structure and function of the several billion neurons and their trillions of interconnections leads to the complexity, diversity, and adaptability of human behavior continues to elude us. It is indeed ironic that almost every advance in brain science has given us a deeper appreciation of the challenges of understanding the brain.

description: Ultrasmall gold nanoclusters show great potential in biomedical applications. Long term biodistribution, retention, toxicity, and pharmacokinetics profiles are prerequisites in their potential clinical applications. Here we systematically investigated the biodistribution, clearance, and toxicity of one widely used Au NC species glutathione protected Au NCs or GSH Au NCs, over a relatively long period of 90 days in mice. We observed that most of the Au NCs were cleared at 30 days post injection with a major accumulation in liver and kidney. However, it is surprising that an abnormal increase of Au amount in the heart, liver, spleen, lung, and testis was observed at 60 and 90 days, indicating that the injected Au NCs formed a V shaped time dependent distribution profile in various organs. Further investigations revealed that Au NCs were steadily accumulating in the muscle in the first 30 days p.i., and the as stored Au NCs gradually released into blood in 30 to 90 days, which induced a redistribution and reaccumulation of Au NCs in all blood rich organs. Further hematology and biochemistry studies showed that the reaccumulation of Au NCs still caused some liver toxicity at 30 days p.i. The muscle storage and subsequent release may give rise to the potential accumulation and toxicity risk of functional nanomaterials over long periods of time.

description: Abstract Despite advances toward improving the quality of $p$-type 4H-SiC substrates and layers, we still have no model capable of accounting for the multitude of boron-related optical, junction, and paramagnetic resonance experiments available in the literature. A conspicuous puzzle is the observation of two shallow boron defects with rather distinct axial orientations as found by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and electron nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) data. This feature is not observed in material doped with other group-III elements. Another open issue involves conflicting conclusions from photoluminescence and EPR studies of a deeper boron center, which has been linked to rather distinct models, either based on substitutional or vacancy-related boron defects. We unlock these and other problems by means of first-principles calculations, where the temperature-dependent stability, the electronic activity, and the paramagnetic response of boron defects in 4H-SiC are investigated.

GEOMETRY AND FEATURE LEARNING IN FROGS
Creators: name: Sorrell, Cody Austin

description: Animals can use various environmental cues to assess their surroundings and move throughout the world. In Experiment 1, I trained poison frogs to find a hidden reward in a rectangular maze using the geometric cues associated with the shape of the testing arena. Once frogs learned to solve the maze, I tested them in a probe trial and found that poison frogs can use arena geometry to learn goal locations. In Experiment 2, poison frogs learned the maze using the geometry of the arena and the addition of a feature cue and showed a strong tendency to follow the feature cue in a probe test. In Experiment 3, I trained túngara frogs to solve the same geometry-only rectangular maze that the poison frogs were tested in. Experiment 3 proves that túngara frogs can also use geometric cues, as they were disrupted when the experimental geometry was changed.
Student-Athlete Opinions on Aspects of the NCAA Name, Image, and Likeness Policy
Creators: name: Gupton, Joshua
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: On June 30th, 2021, the NCAA passed an interim policy to permit student-athletes to profit from their Name, Image, and Likeness (NIL). Multiple states had begun the process of implementing legislation that would allow college athletes to profit from their NIL while competing in intercollegiate athletics. Currently, little research has been done on whether current student-athletes are in favor of the laws and regulations and how they think the laws will alter the student-athlete experience. This study analyzes the results of a quantitative and qualitative survey of the opinions of NCAA student-athletes on the effects of the NCAA’s NIL policy has had on student-athlete experiences. The study found that student-athletes feel informed about the rules surrounding NIL that are originating from their schools and the NCAA, they are more unsure when it comes to state law. In addition, most student-athletes surveyed were in favor of NIL and supported fewer restrictions.
Photon propagation in noncommutative QED with constant external field

description: We find dispersion laws for the photon propagating in the presence of mutually orthogonal constant external electric and magnetic fields in the context of the $θ$-expanded noncommutative QED. We show that there is no birefringence to the first order in the noncommutativity parameter $% θ.$ By analyzing the group velocities of the photon eigenmodes we show that there occurs superluminal propagation for any direction. This phenomenon depends on the mutual orientation of the external electromagnetic fields and the noncommutativity vector. We argue that the propagation of signals with superluminal group velocity violates causality in spite of the fact that the noncommutative theory is not Lorentz-invariant and speculate about possible workarounds.
LEFT GOVERNMENTS AND UNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCE: A MIXED METHODS STUDY OF CONTEMPORARY WELFARE STATES
Creators: name: Rodebjer, Petter
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: This thesis inserts new evidence into an ongoing academic debate about the relevance of power resources theory in contemporary welfare states. On the one hand, power resources theory claims that ‘power relations’ between labor and capital and left governments’ political representation of working-class interest influences the generosity of welfare state provisions. On the other hand, the politics of retrenchment and a new electoral landscape imply that the space for political partisanship in unemployment policy has diminished or altogether disappeared since the late 20th century. My pooled time series analysis supports the later claims, but my case study of Sweden finds significant political partisan effects on unemployment insurance generosity. Future research may determine whether the Swedish case is an exception to an ongoing trend in contemporary welfare states studies or if it points towards more nuanced understandings of social policy changes.

description: We study theoretically two-dimensional single-crystalline sheets of semiconductors that form a honeycomb lattice with a period below 10 nm. These systems could combine the usual semiconductor properties with Dirac bands. Using atomistic tight-binding calculations, we show that both the atomic lattice and the overall geometry influence the band structure, revealing materials with unusual electronic properties. In rocksalt Pb chalcogenides, the expected Dirac-type features are clouded by a complex band structure. However, in the case of zinc-blende Cd-chalcogenide semiconductors, the honeycomb nanogeometry leads to rich band structures, including, in the conduction band, Dirac cones at two distinct energies and nontrivial flat bands and, in the valence band, topological edge states. These edge states are present in several electronic gaps opened in the valence band by the spin-orbit coupling and the quantum confinement in the honeycomb geometry. The lowest Dirac conduction band has S-orbital character and is equivalent to the pi-pi* band of graphene but with renormalized couplings. The conduction bands higher in energy have no counterpart in graphene; they combine a Dirac cone and flat bands because of their P-orbital character. We show that the width of the Dirac bands varies between tens and hundreds of meV. These systems emerge as remarkable platforms for studying complex electronic phases starting from conventional semiconductors. Recent advancements in colloidal chemistry indicate that these materials can be synthesized from semiconductor nanocrystals.

description: We present the first high spatial resolution radio continuum survey of the southern Galactic plane. The CORNISH project has mapped the region defined by $295^{\circ} < l < 350^{\circ}$; $|b| < 1^{\circ}$ at 5.5-GHz, with a resolution of 2.5$^{''}$ (FWHM). As with the CORNISH-North survey, this is designed to primarily provide matching radio data to the Spitzer GLIMPSE survey region. The CORNISH-South survey achieved a root mean square noise level of $\sim$ 0.11 mJy beam$^{-1}$, using the 6A configuration of the Australia Telescope Compact Array (ATCA). In this paper, we discuss the observations, data processing and measurements of the source properties. Above a 7$σ$ detection limit, 4701 sources were detected, and their ensemble properties show similar distributions with their northern counterparts. The catalogue is highly reliable and is complete to 90 per cent at a flux density level of 1.1 mJy. We developed a new way of measuring the integrated flux densities and angular sizes of non-Gaussian sources. The catalogue primarily provides positions, flux density measurements and angular sizes. All sources with IR counterparts at 8$μm$ have been visually classified, utilizing additional imaging data from optical, near-IR, mid-IR, far-IR and sub-millimetre galactic plane surveys. This has resulted in the detection of 524 H II regions of which 255 are ultra-compact H II regions, 287 planetary nebulae, 79 radio stars and 6 massive young stellar objects. The rest of the sources are likely to be extra-galactic. These data are particularly important in the characterization and population studies of compact ionized sources such as UCHII regions and PNe towards the Galactic mid-plane.

description: Ensuring a permanent increase of magnetic storage densities is one of the main challenges in magnetic recording. Conventional approaches based on single phase grains are not suitable to achieve this goal, because their grain volume is limited due to the superparamagnetic limit. Grains with graded anisotropy are the most promising candidates to overcome this limit, providing magnetic memory bits with small volumes, low coercivity and high thermal stability at the same time. Combining micromagnetic simulations with forward flux sampling (FFS), a computational method for rare events that has been recently applied to the magnetic nanostructures, we have determined thermal escape rates and attempt frequencies of a graded media grain and two single phase grains of the same geometry. We find that graded anisotropy can increase the thermal stability of a grain by 12 orders of magnitudes from tens of milliseconds to centuries without changing the coercive field.

description: Here a multiple heavy metal and antibiotic resistant bacterium Cupriavidus necator C39 (C. necator C39) was isolated from a Gold-Copper mine in Zijin, Fujian, China. C. necator C39 was able to tolerate intermediate concentrations of heavy metal(loid)s in Tris Minimal (TMM) Medium (Cu(II) 2 mM, Zn(II) 2 mM, Ni(II) 0.2 mM, Au(III) 70 μM and As(III) 2.5 mM). In addition, high resistance to multiple antibiotics was experimentally observed. Moreover, strain C39 was able to grow on TMM medium containing aromatic compounds such as benzoate, phenol, indole, p-hydroxybenzoic acid or phloroglucinol anhydrous as the sole carbon sources. The complete genome of this strain revealed 2 circular chromosomes and 1 plasmid, and showed the closest type strain is C. necator N-1T based on Genome BLAST Distance Phylogeny. The arsenic-resistance (ars) cluster GST-arsR-arsICBR-yciI and a scattered gene encoding the putative arsenite efflux pump ArsB were identified on the genome of strain C39, which thereby may provide the bacterium a robust capability for arsenic resistance. Genes encoding multidrug resistance efflux pump may confer high antibiotic resistance to strain C39. Key genes encoding functions in degradation pathways of benzene compounds, including benzoate, phenol, benzamide, catechol, 3- or 4-fluorobenzoate, 3- or 4-hydroxybenzoate and 3,4-dihydroxybenzoate, indicated its potential for degrading those benzene compounds.

Recognizing that this behavior indicates interlayer coupling, Zhang et al. cite, among other papers, the interlayer Coulombic pairing mechanism picture [Harshman et al., J. Phys.: Condens. Matter 23, 295701 (2011)]. This Comment shows that superconductivity occurs by interactions between the chlorine layers of the TiNCl structure and the layers containing A$_x$, wherein the transverse A$_x$-Cl separation distance ζ is smaller than $d$. In the absence of pair-breaking interactions, the optimal transition temperature is modeled by T$_{C0}$ $\propto$ (σ/$A$)$^{1/2}$$ζ$$^{-1}$, where σ/$A$ is the fractional charge per area per formula unit. Particularly noteworthy are the rather marginally-metallic trends in resistivities of A$_x$(S)$_y$TiNCl, indicating high scattering rates, which are expected to partially originate from remote Coulomb scattering (RCS) from the A$_x$ ions. By modeling a small fraction of the RCS as inducing pair-breaking, taken to cut off exponentially with ζ, observations of T$_C$ < T$_{C0}$ are quantitatively described for compounds with ζ < 4 Å, and T$_C$ $\approx$ T$_{C0}$ for Na$_{0.16}$(S)$_y$TiNCl with propylene carbonate and butylene carbonate co-intercalants for which ζ > 7 Å. Since a spatially separated alkali-ion layer is not formed in Li$_{0.13}$TiNCl, the observed T$_C$ of 5.9 K is attributed to an intergrowth phase related to TiN (T$_C$ = 5.6 K).

description: We report resistivity, thermoelectric power and thermal conductivity of MoS2 single crystals prepared by chemical vapour transport (CVT) method using I2, Br2 and TeCl4 as transport agents. The material presents low-lying donor and acceptor levels, which dominate the in-plane charge transport. Intercalates into the Van der Waals gap strongly influence the inter-plane resistivity. Thermoelectric power displays the characteristics of strong electron-phonon interaction. Detailed theoretical model of thermal conductivity reveals the presence of high number of defects in the MoS2 structure. We show that these defects are inherent to CVT growth method, coming mostly from the transport agent molecules inclusion as identified by Total Reflection X-ray Fluorescence analysis (TXRF) and in-beam activation analysis (IBAA).

description: T-cell lymphomas are heterogeneous and rare lymphatic malignancies with unfavorable prognosis. Consequently, new therapeutic strategies are needed. The enhancer of zeste homologue 2 (EZH2) is the catalytic subunit of the polycomb repressive complex 2 and responsible for lysine 27 trimethylation of histone 3. EZH2 is overexpressed in several tumor entities including T-cell neoplasms leading to epigenetic and consecutive oncogenic dysregulation. Thus, pharmacological EZH2 inhibition is a promising target and its clinical evaluation in T-cell lymphomas shows favorable results. We have investigated EZH2 expression in two cohorts of T-cell lymphomas by mRNA-profiling and immunohistochemistry, both revealing overexpression to have a negative impact on patients’ prognosis. Furthermore, we have evaluated EZH2 inhibition in a panel of leukemia and lymphoma cell lines with a focus on T-cell lymphomas characterized for canonical EZH2 signaling components. The cell lines were treated with the inhibitors GSK126 or EPZ6438 that inhibit EZH2 specifically by competitive binding at the S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) binding site in combination with the common second-line chemotherapeutic oxaliplatin. The change in cytotoxic effects under pharmacological EZH2 inhibition was evaluated revealing a drastic increase in oxaliplatin resistance after 72 h and longer periods of combinational incubation. This outcome was independent of cell type but associated to reduced intracellular platinum. Pharmacological EZH2 inhibition revealed increased expression in SRE binding proteins, SREBP1/2 and ATP binding cassette subfamily G transporters ABCG1/2. The latter are associated with chemotherapy resistance due to increased platinum efflux. Knockdown experiments revealed that this was independent of the EZH2 functional state. The EZH2 inhibition effect on oxaliplatin resistance and efflux was reduced by additional inhibition of the regulated target proteins. In conclusion, pharmacological EZH2 inhibition is not suitable in combination with the common chemotherapeutic oxaliplatin in T-cell lymphomas revealing an EZH2-independent off-target effect.

description: We have used terahertz (THz) magneto-optical spectroscopy to investigate the cyclotron resonance in high mobility two-dimensional electron and hole systems. Our experiments reveal long-lived (~20 ps) coherent oscillations in the measured signal in the presence of a perpendicular magnetic field. The cyclotron frequency extracted from the oscillations varies linearly with magnetic field for a two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG), as expected. However, we find that the complex non-parabolic valence band structure in a two-dimensional hole gas (2DHG) causes the cyclotron frequency and effective mass to vary nonlinearly with the magnetic field, as verified by multiband Landau level calculations. This is the first time that THz magneto-optical spectroscopy has been used to study 2DHG, and we expect that these results will motivate further studies of these unique 2D nanosystems.

description: We obtain the energy and momentum of the Bianchi type VI_h universes using different prescriptions for the energy-momentum complexes in the framework of general relativity. The energy and momentum of the Bianchi VI_h universe are found to be zero for the parameter h = -1 of the metric. The vanishing of these results support the conjecture of Tryon that Universe must have a zero net value for all conserved quantities.This also supports the work of Nathan Rosen with the Robertson-Walker metric. Moreover, it raises an interesting question: "Why h=-1 case is so special?"
Investigation into the Role of Chance and Error in the Diversification of Host Races in Parasitic Cuckoos

description: Obligate brood parasitism in cuckoos has long been a model for coevolution, resulting in host races defined by egg mimicry. Extensive research has challenged this simple host-parasite narrative, especially how host races are maintained without speciation. Previous empirical research used molecular ecology methods to address to several of these emerging questions, yet results have been mixed and ignored the potential impact of neutral and stochastic processes on population structure and host use. Here, I used simulation to understand how drift and error in host switching shape patterns of genetic differentiation under different selection paradigms. These simulations assumed that both sexes exhibit host preference and contribute to egg mimicry. I provide evidence that drift and discordance in host preference alone can generate patterns of genetic variation observed in the field. While natural selection undoubtedly shaped cuckoo populations, this work highlights how stochastic processes can lead to patterns both similar and dissimilar to those predicted by the host-parasite narrative.
