description: The early B supergiant LMC star BI 108 is photometrically variable with a unique light curve; two strong periods are present in an almost precise 3:2 resonance. We collected spectroscopic data at VLT/UVES, sampling the supercycle of 10.733 days in ten epochs. We find spectral signatures for a SB2 system consisting of two massive B1 supergiants orbiting at the orbital period of 5.366 days. The shorter periodicity resembles the light curve of an eclipsing binary with periodicity 3.578 days that is not detected in the data. We discuss possible causes for the short periodicity and conclude that the quadruple system is the more plausible hypothesis.

An Analysis of Empirical Research of Social Media and User-Generated Content in the Hospitality Industry
Creators: name: Fan, Didi
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2015

description: Hospitality remains highly competitive industry where establishments are always pushing new efforts to positively attract and retain consumers more so than the others. In recent years, the most significant trend in reaching to consumers is through social media. The research dives into great detail in the interactions and cause and effect between consumers and hospitality in social media such as the effect of user generated content. The research produces more details and ideas than simply engaging in social media helps hospitality establishments. The information was attained from a large content analysis of previous research, studies, surveys, experiments, statistical and quantitative analysis from the leading journals in hospitality as well as papers from psychology and marketing journals. The overall result concluded that simple promotion on social media is not the leading positive impactful factor; it is actually consumer engagement between the consumer and the brand or establishment that drives attention, consumers and advocates through social media. Those in hospitality will then be able to use the tools and strategies provided in the study based on data and research to further engage consumers and drive revenue to their establishment or brand.
Voluntary Recognition of Unionized Labor in a Resort with Leased Food and Beverage Outlets
Creators: name: Morell II, Mark
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2015

description: The food and beverage industry in Las Vegas gaming resorts has rapidly been moving towards a lease model where independent third parties operate outlets. This is in comparison to the past where resorts operated such outlets with their own employees. Food and beverage operations in resorts have always been labor intensive, requiring the need for large numbers of employees to run properly. As food and beverage operations in resorts are heavily intertwined with organized labor, it warrants a look into the changing aspects of the relationship due to this new leasing trend. This includes the long held practice of gaming resorts voluntarily recognizing union representation of employees. This presents the ideal opportunity to look into the interactions between continuing the practice of voluntarily recognizing, and the trend of continued restaurant leasing. Included in this is an evaluation if discontinuing the practice of voluntarily recognizing union representation would increase lease values of food and beverage outlet spaces.

description: About 2.9 fb$^{-1}$ data set had been collected with the BESIII detector at the BEPCII collider. Taking advantages of data near open-charm threshold, we present preliminary results on leptonic and semileptonic charm-meson decays, as well as result on the FCNC process $D^0 \rightarrow γγ$ from BESIII experiment. High precision charm data will enable us to validate Lattice QCD calculations at the few percent level. These can then be used to make precise measurements of CKM elements, $V_{cd}$ and $V_{cs}$, which are useful to improve the accuracy of test of the CKM unitary.

On the Role of Rotating Sunspots in the Activity of Solar Active Region NOAA 11158

description: We study the role of rotating sunspots in relation to the evolution of various physical parameters characterizing the non-potentiality of the active region NOAA 11158 and its eruptive events using the magnetic field data from the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) and multi-wavelength observations from the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) on board Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). From the evolutionary study of HMI intensity and AIA channels, it is observed that the AR consists of two major rotating sunspots one connected to flare-prone region and another with CME. The constructed space-time intensity maps reveal that the sunspots exhibited peak rotation rates coinciding with the occurrence of the major eruptive events. Further, temporal profiles of twist parameters, viz., average shear angle, $α_{\rm av}$, $α_{\rm best}$, derived from HMI vector magnetograms and the rate of helicity injection, obtained from the horizontal flux motions of HMI line-of-sight magnetograms, corresponded well with the rotational profile of the sunspot in CME-prone region, giving predominant evidence of rotational motion to cause magnetic non-potentiality. Moreover, mean value of free-energy from the Virial theorem calculated at the photospheric level shows clear step down decrease at the on set time of the flares revealing unambiguous evidence of energy release, intermittently that is stored by flux emergence and/or motions in pre-flare phases. Additionally, distribution of helicity injection is homogeneous in CME prone region while it is not and often changes sign in flare-prone region. This study provides clear picture that both proper and rotational motions of the observed fluxes played significant role to enhance the magnetic non-potentiality of the AR, leading to favorable conditions for the observed transient activity.

description: Inference of hidden classes in stochastic block model is a classical problem with important applications. Most commonly used methods for this problem involve na\"ıve mean field approaches or heuristic spectral methods. Recently, belief propagation was proposed for this problem. In this contribution we perform a comparative study between the three methods on synthetically created networks. We show that belief propagation shows much better performance when compared to na\"ıve mean field and spectral approaches. This applies to accuracy, computational efficiency and the tendency to overfit the data.

An Importance-Performance Analysis of Multigenerational Preferences in Guestroom Technology
Creators: name: Lan, Sidian
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2014

description: This study focuses on generational preferences in terms of guestroom technology. The hospitality technology industry has indicated guestroom technology as their highest priority in terms of hospitality technology investment. Previous studies have investigated in-room technology amenities and ranked them in order of importance and performance. However, it is uncertain which guestroom specific technologies should they invest in when it comes to different generations. Each generation is fundamentally different from the others because each generation was born in different eras with different societal changes. These generations have different values, ideas, needs, and communication skills. Hoteliers are investing time and money into technology but are they making the correct investments for their desired target markets? In order to shed light in this area of research, this paper presents a thorough review of the literature on guestroom technology studies and proposes research on guestroom technology's importance and performance across generations.

description: Because of the economy growth and the Open Door Policy, Chinese hotel industry was under a huge expansion. Since more and more western customers are visiting and Chinese customers are having more hotel experience abroad, the service Chinese hotels used to provide dose not meet the standard anymore. So the managers and leaders need to find an appropriate approach to encourage their employees to improve the service to their customers. This research went through over 40 articles about Chinese hotel industry and Chinese culture and found out that servant leadership style should be the best approach to engage the employees.

description: With Monte Carlo simulations, we systematically investigate the depinning phase transition in the two-dimensional driven random-field clock model. Based on the short-time dynamic approach, we determine the transition field and critical exponents. The results show that the critical exponents vary with the form of the random-field distribution and the strength of the random fields, and the roughening dynamics of the domain interface belongs to the new subclass with $ζ\neq ζ_{loc} \neq ζ_s$ and $ζ_{loc} \neq 1$. More importantly, we find that the transition field and critical exponents change with the initial orientations of the magnetization of the two ordered domains.

High-Pressure Properties of Several Narrow Bandgap Semiconductors from First-Principles Calculations
Creators: name: Alvarado, Andrew Michael
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2016

description: The electronic, thermodynamic, and structural properties of three semiconducting materials, ZnO, InN, and PbS, at high pressure are investigated utilizing first-principles calculations based on density function theory. The first two systems, ZnO and InN, crystalize as hexagonal structures at ambient conditions and transition to a cubic structure at higher pressures. The last system, PbS, is cubic at ambient conditions, but transitions to an orthorhombic structure at higher pressure. At ambient conditions, these materials are well known semiconductors with vast amount of research and a variety of wide ranging applications in electrical devices. However, there is a lack of understanding of their physical properties at high pressures. In this thesis, an attempt is made to establish an understanding of the fundamental properties of the high-pressure phase of these materials. DFT and Boltzmann transport theory are used to find how pressure- induced phase transitions affect the electronic and heat transport of these materials. From harmonic approximations, a frozen phonon method is used to calculate the phonon frequencies and thermodynamic properties.

description: My MFA in Creative Writing with an emphasis on poetry has culminated in a poetry manuscript of 60 pages in length. Many of the poems in this manuscript are inspired by my experiences studying English poetry and literature in this program, with a particular emphasis on devotional and spiritual poetry and poetics. A third of my thesis poem, in fact, came out of my experiences fulfilling the "study abroad" requirement in my MFA. To fulfill that requirement, I embarked on a couple pilgrimage walks through rural parts of the United Kingdom. The longest walk was the one I took from Winchester to Canterbury in England, a distance of 125 miles, trod in the footsteps of Chaucer's pilgrims from The Canterbury Tales. On a related note, I fulfilled my translation requirement by taking two classes in Old English, which resulted in a translation of the Old English poem Beowulf. Both the travel and translation experiences were ones that informed the poetry that I wrote for my thesis. Some of the other classes I took  on the mythological poetics of Charles Olson, the mystical poetry of Hilda Doolittle, and the ecological prose of Hendry David Thoreau  also came to inform the poems in my thesis.

description: We solve an inverse spectral problem for a star graph of Krein strings, where the known spectral data comprises the spectrum associated with the whole graph, the spectra associated with the individual edges as well as so-called coupling matrices. In particular, we show that these spectral quantities uniquely determine the weight within the class of Borel measures on the graph, which give rise to trace class resolvents. Furthermore, we obtain a concise characterization of all possible spectral data for this class of weights.

Can R CrB stars form from the merger of two helium white dwarfs?

Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Due to orbital decay by gravitational-wave radiation, some close-binary helium white dwarfs are expected to merge within a Hubble time. The immediate merger products are believed to be helium-rich sdO stars, essentially helium main-sequence stars. We present new evolution calculations for these post-merger stars beyond the core helium-burning phase. The most massive He-sdO's develop a strong helium-burning shell and evolve to become helium-rich giants. We include nucleosynthesis calculations following the merger of $0.4 \rm M_{\odot}$ helium white-dwarf pairs with metallicities $Z = 0.0001, 0.004, 0.008$ and 0.02. The surface chemistries of the resulting giants are in partial agreement with the observed abundances of R Coronae Borealis and extreme helium stars. Such stars might represent a third, albeit rare, evolution channel for the latter, in addition to the CO+He white dwarf merger and the very-late thermal pulse channels proposed previously. We confirm a recent suggestion that lithium seen in R\,CrB stars could form naturally during the hot phase of a merger in the presence of \iso{3}{He} from the donor white dwarf.

The National Diabetes Prevention Program an intervention for Diabetes Risk Reduction
Creators: name: Batra, Kavita
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2016

description: Diabetes mellitus is among the most frequently occurring chronic conditions, affecting 28 million adults in the Nation. The Nevada diabetes prevalence rate is approaching the National average, with 1 out of 4 diabetic patients experiencing serious clinical complications. Diabetes is typically preceded by a preventable condition classified as prediabetes, in which the blood sugar level exceeds the normal level, yet not enough to be classified as Type 2 diabetes. Prediabetes increases the risk of developing diabetes within 10 years, if not effectively managed. In an attempt to help reduce this risk, the CDC recently introduced an evidence-based intervention, the National Diabetes Prevention Program (NDPP) that aims to delay the onset of diabetes mellitus in people having prediabetes or those predisposed to having diabetes mellitus. The purpose of this current study is to assess the effect of the NDPP upon the change in weight and physical activity status of participants. A total of 66 subjects were recruited from the employees of Wyndham vacation resort, United Healthcare, and center of the Dignity Health organization, following the selection criteria provided by the CDC. This study assessed the secondary data obtained from the Women's Center of Dignity Health. The study utilized multiple logistic and linear regression, pearson's correlation, and one way ANOVA for assessing the association, and group differences among the variables used. The results of the logistic regression indicated that the odds of achieving the desired weight loss goal is 24% more likely for each additional session attended in the intervention. Moreover, the linear regression model suggested that number of sessions significantly predict the physical activity minutes achieved and percentage of weight loss. It was also determined that for every increase in session, there will be an increase in physical activity minutes of 8.3 minutes and decrease in weight by 0.3 % from the baseline.The findings of this study may suggest an effective intervention for regulating the modifiable risk factors for lowering the risk of diabetes mellitus. In addition, this study may propose an avenue of prospective research for ascertaining sustainability of behavior change and performing outcome evaluation of the program among future intervention participants.

description: Die Empfindlichkeit präziser Messtechnik, speziell in Bezug auf optische Komponenten von Gravitationswellendetektoren, ist durch thermisches Rauschen limitiert. Um dieses Rauschen zu minimieren ist es sinnvoll Substrate und Schichten mit niedrigem mechanischen Verlust zu verwenden und bei kryogenen Temperaturen zu arbeiten. Es zeigt sich allerdings, dass hochreflektierende Schichten wie beispielsweise Tantalpentoxid aufgrund ihrer amorphen Phase einen großen mechanischen Verlust und somit auch ein hohes thermisches Rauschen aufweisen. Diese Arbeit gibt Hinweise darauf, dass es möglich sein könnte, den mechanischen Verlust von amorphem Tantalpentoxid durch gezielte Ionenimplantation und thermisches Ausheilen zu verringern. Dazu wurde der Temperaturverlauf des mechanischen Verlustes von tantalpentoxid-beschichteten Silizium-Cantilevern vor und nach Ionenimplantation charakterisiert. Die beobachteten Resultate geben Anhalt zu Möglichkeiten die eingangs angesprochene Empfindlichkeit von präziser Messtechnik zu steigern.

description: The FK506-binding protein 51 (FKBP51) is a cochaperone that modulates the signal transduction of steroid hormone receptors and has been involved in prostate cancer, indicating that FKBP51 is an attractive target of drug design curing the related cancers. In this work, multiple short molecular dynamics (MSMD) simulations are combined with MM-GBSA method to investigate binding modes of inhibitors 3JP, 3JR and 3JQ to FKBP51. The results show that the substitutions of diols (R)-19 and (S)-19 at the R position of 3JP strengthen binding of 3JR and 3JQ to FKBP51. Principal component (PC) analysis performed on the equilibrated MSMD trajectories suggests that three inhibitor bindings produce significant effect on dynamics behavior and conformational changes of the loops L1, L2 and the domain β-L-α-L-β in FKBP51. The calculations of residue-based free energy decomposition not only recognize the hot interaction spot of inhibitors with FKBP51, but also display that the substitutions of diols (R)-19 and (S)-19 at the R position of 3JP play significant role in stronger binding of 3JR and 3JQ to FKBP51 than 3JP. This work is expected to provide theoretical hints and molecular mechanism for design of highly efficient inhibitors toward FKBP51.
An Empirical Study on The Impact of C++ Lambdas And Programmer Experience

description: Lambda functions have become prevalent in mainstream programming languages, as they are increasingly introduced to widely used object oriented programming languages such as Java and C++. Some in the scientific literature argue that this feature increases programmer productivity, ease of reading, and makes parallel programming easier. Others are less convinced, citing concerns that the use of lambdas makes debugging harder. This thesis describes the design, execution and results of an experiment to test the impact of using lambda functions compared to the iterator design pattern for iteration tasks, as a first step
in evaluating these claims. The approach is a randomized controlled trial, which focuses on the percentage of tasks completed, number of compiler errors, the percentage of time to fix such errors, and the amount of time it takes to complete programming tasks correctly. The overall goal is to investigate, if lambda functions have an impact on the ability of developers to complete tasks, or the amount of time taken to complete them. Additionally, it is tested if developers introduce more errors while using lambda functions and if fixing errors takes them more time. Lastly, the impact of experience level on productivity is evaluated by comparing the performance of participants from different levels of experience with one-another. Participants were assigned one of five levels based on their progress in the computer science major. The five levels were freshman, sophomore, junior, senior and professional. The professional level was assigned to individuals out of school with 5 or more years of professional experience.
Results show that the impact of using lambdas, as opposed to iterators, on the number of tasks completed was significant. The impact on time to completion, number of errors introduced during the experiment and times spent fixing errors were also found to be significant. The analysis of the difference between the different levels of experience also shows a significant difference. The percentage of time spent on fixing compilation errors was 56.37% for the lambda group while it was 44.2% for the control group with 3.5% of the variance being explained by the group difference. 45.7% of the variance in the sample was explained by the difference between the level of education. Therefore, this study suggests that earlier findings that student results are comparable with the results of professional developers are to be considered carefully.

description: Agriculture is an important economic sector in India. Over 60 per cent of the rural households depend on agriculture practices as their principal means of livelihood. Agriculture Farmers are extensively using agrochemical for pest and diseases control in agriculture crop fields. Their precarious handling practices may lead to higher exposure resulting in adverse health and environments effects. Current study was aimed to evaluate the knowledge and Perception and agriculture practices regarding pesticide usage and its toxic effects by rural farmers and environments. A cross sectional study was conducted in the rural villages of Krishna District, Andhra Pradesh, India. Hard data were collected through face-to-face interviews, using a questionnaire contained three main sections questionnaire, its included personal profile of farmers, awareness of pesticides and pesticides handling practices. It was designed in English and translated into Telugu, the local language Telugu that is understood by majority of the farmers. A total of 100 rural agriculture farmers participated in this study with majority of age of 40-60 years about 55% out of 100 farmers, about 40% of the farmers knew the harmful effects of agrochemical. However, 20% of them were mixing the pesticides using their bare hands and 60% were not wearing any protective clothing during spraying agrochemical. Around 50% were carelessly disposing the leftover pesticides in the open fields. Exposure of farmers to pesticides is immense especially in rural areas. So understanding farmer's level of knowledge and levels of awareness of agrochemical safety is essential. Eye, Skin problems and neurological system disturbances were the most common pesticide related health symptoms. These findings showed that knowledge level is adequate among farmers but this did not reflect in their practice. There is a need for continuous pesticide safety education along with training to the farmers regarding use of personal protective devices, personal hygiene and sanitation practices during and after application of pesticides through the student's community services programs and chemical based pesticides awareness programs.

description: Additional file 5: Figure S5. Overall maximum OD600 of Enterocloster spp. change in a strain-specific manner in response to osmotic stress. Maximum OD600 of selected Enterocloster strains was calculated from the growth curves obtained as explained in Figure 3A-B. Under different osmotic stresses, we observed varying bacterial sensitivity to osmolality at both the strain and species levels. Notably, we saw a decrease in growth rate (Fig. 3E) and overall max OD when osmolality was increased above the baseline media osmolality of 480 mOsm/kg in E. clostridioformis 538 and E. citroniae. Unlike its counterpart strain, we noticed that the slower-growing E. clostridioformis 455 exhibited tolerance to increased osmolality up to 722 mOsm/kg in the form of stable growth rates, despite decreasing overall max OD (Fig. 3E). Uniquely, E. bolteae exhibited faster growth rates only at 622 mOsm/kg (Fig. 3E), suggesting an optimal osmolality, despite declining overall max OD (Fig. S3). Nonetheless, E. bolteae also showed the overall highest tolerance to osmolality from all tested strains, as both its growth rate and max OD changed the least compared to baseline. These results highlight the unique relationships that bacteria, even at the species or substrain level, have with osmolality, which is consistent with previous findings in other gut bacteria [32].

description: The last decade, nanopores have emerged as a new and interesting tool for the study of biological macromolecules like proteins and DNA. While biological pores, especially alpha-hemolysin, have been promising for the detection of DNA, their poor chemical stability limits their use. For this reason, researchers are trying to mimic their behaviour using more stable, solid-state nanopores. The most successful tools to fabricate such nanopores use high energy electron or ions beams to drill or reshape holes in very thin membranes. While the resolution of these methods can be very good, they require tools that are not commonly available and tend to damage and charge the nanopore surface. In this work, we show nanopores that have been fabricated using standard micromachning techniques together with EBID, and present a simple model that is used to estimate the surface charge. The results show that EBID with a silicon oxide precursor can be used to tune the nanopore surface and that the surface charge is stable over a wide range of concentrations.
