description: Cryptocurrencies are distributed systems that allow exchanges of native (and non-) tokens among participants. The complete historical bookkeeping and its wide availability opens up an unprecedented possibility, i.e. that of understanding the evolution of their network structure while gaining useful insight on the relationships between user' behaviour and cryptocurrency pricing in exchange markets. In this contribution we review some of the most recent results concerning the structural properties of Bitcoin Transaction Networks, a generic name referring to a set of different constructs: the Bitcoin Address Network, the Bitcoin User Network and the Bitcoin Lightning Network. The picture that emerges is that of system growing over time, which becomes increasingly sparse and whose mesoscopic structural organization is characterised by the presence of an increasingly significant core-periphery structure. Such a peculiar topology is matched by a highly uneven distribution of bitcoins, a result suggesting that Bitcoin is becoming an increasingly centralized system at different levels.

description: As investment analyst mainly in the area of securities and in the face of actual market situation (zero interest rates in developed world, bubble-like prices in nearly every asset class due to central bank intervention etc.), finding or developing investments in real assets like infrastructure seems to make more sense. Combined with two topics of intrinsic interest - renewable energy and growing water scarcity - educational steps have been taken to get into these topics. This lead to the core question: is a combination of renewable energy and seawater desalination, enhanced by electrical energy storage, feasible and if not what may help to improve the financial situation? Therefore desalination technologies have been researched concentrating on the mature and commercially developed 'reverse osmosis'. On the one side the investment should be acceptable for investors only looking for commercialized technologies; on the other side renewable energy forms producing electricity (not heat) are in focus, especially photovoltaics (PV) as water scarcity and irradiation highly correlate. Enlargement is done by adding electrical energy storage (EES) as support for photovoltaics to reach at least a majority of sustainable energy production. Then the status-quo of desalination on Mediterranean Island gets depicted; during the research a desalination project with inconvenient outcome has been found. The findings of technological and plant research has been combined and re-calculated to find out if that plant would be an acceptable investment based on this thesis-assumptions. Three main and two sub-scenarios have been built and expressed as project and business finance calculations: the desalination plant; the plant with PV to supply 1/3 of energy demand; the plant with PV and EES to supply 2/3 of energy demand. Whereas the first two scenarios showed positive results along a spectrum of criteria, the last one ended negative due to immense investments in PV and EES. Here the two sub-scenarios come into play: support by 20% investment subsidy; support by lower EES investment costs and 20% investment subsidy. The former improved but is still not investable, the latter entered a kind of 'orange' zone as some parts reached slightly positive areas.

description: From perturbation theory, Green's functions are known for providing a simple and convenient access to the (complete) spectrum of atoms and ions. Having these functions available, they may help carry out perturbation expansions to any order beyond the first one. For most realistic potentials, however, the Green's functions need to be calculated numerically since an analytic form is known only for free electrons or for their motion in a pure Coulomb field. Therefore, in order to facilitate the use of Green's functions also for atoms and ions other than the hydrogen--like ions, here we provide an extension to the Ratip program which supports the computation of relativistic (one--electron) Green's functions in an -- arbitrarily given -- central--field potential $\rV(r)$. Different computational modes have been implemented to define these effective potentials and to generate the radial Green's functions for all bound--state energies $E < 0$. In addition, care has been taken to provide a user--friendly component of the Ratip package by utilizing features of the Fortran 90/95 standard such as data structures, allocatable arrays, or a module--oriented design.

Living, writing and staging racial hybridity
Creators: name: La Flamme, Lisa Michelle
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Contemporary Canadian literature and drama that features racial hybridity represents the racially hybrid soma text as a unique form of embodiment and pays particular attention to the power of the racialized gaze. The soma text is the central concept I have developed in order to identify, address, and interrogate the signifying qualities of the racially hybrid body. Throughout my dissertation, I use the concept of the body as a text in order to draw attention to the different visual "readings" that are stimulated by this form of embodiment. In each chapter, I identify the centrality of racially hybrid embodiment and investigate the power of the racialized gaze involved in the interpellation of these racially hybrid bodies. I have chosen to divide my study into discrete chapters and to use specific texts to illuminate my central concepts and to identify the strategies that can be used to express agency over the process of interpellation. In Chapter One I explain my methodology, define the terminology and outline the theories that are central to my analysis. In Chapter Two, I consider the experiences of mixed race people expressing agency by self-defining in the genre of autobiography. In Chapter Three, I explore the notion of racial drag as represented in fiction. In Chapter Four, I consider the ways in which the performative aspects of racial hybridity are represented by theatrical means and through performance. My analysis of the soma text and racialized gaze in these three genres offers critical terms that can be used to analyze representations of racial hybridity. By framing my analysis by way of the construction of the autobiographical voice I suggest that insight into the narrative uses of racial hybridity can be deepened and informed by a thorough analysis of the representation of the lived experience of racial hybridity in a given context. My crossgeneric and crossracial methodology implicitly asserts the importance of the inclusion of different types of racial hybridity in order to understand the power of the racially hybrid body as a signifier in contemporary Canadian literature and drama.

description: Measuring longitudinally polarised vector boson scattering in WW channel is a promising way to investigate unitarity restoration with the Higgs mechanism and to search for possible physics beyond the Standard Model. In order to perform such a measurement, it is crucial to develop an efficient reconstruction of the full W boson kinematics in leptonic decays with the focus on polarisation measurements. We investigated several approaches, from traditional ones up to advanced deep neural network structures, and we compared their ability to reconstruct the W boson reference frame and to consequently measure the longitudinal fraction W_L in both semi-leptonic and di-leptonic WW decay channels.

description: We adopt the Pearson cross-correlation measure to analyze the LIGO Hanford and LIGO Livingston detector data streams around the events GW150914, GW151012,GW151226 and GW170104. We find that the Pearson cross-correlation method is sensitive to these signals, with correlations peaking when the black hole binaries reconstructed by the LIGO Scientific and Virgo Collaborations, are merging. We compare the obtained cross-correlations with the statistical correlation fluctuations arising in simulated Gaussian noise data and in LIGO data at times when no event is claimed. Our results for the significance of the observed cross-correlations are broadly consistent with those announced by the LIGO Scientific and Virgo Collaborations based on matched-filter analysis. In the same data, if we subtract the maximum likelihood waveforms corresponding to the announced signals, no residual cross-correlations persists at a statistically significant level.

description: Among the problems still open in the study of stellar structure, we discuss in particular some issues related to the study of convection. We have recently built up complete stellar models, adopting a consistent formulation of convection both in the non gray atmosphere and in the interior, to be used for non adiabatic pulsational analysis, and discuss in some details two problems which have been clarified by these models: the physical interpretation of one of the main sequence "Boehm-Vitense gaps", and the necessity of parametrizing pre main sequence convection differently from the main sequence convection. We also report preliminary results of the application to the solar model of the non--local turbulence equations by Canuto and Dubovikov (1998) in the down-gradient approximation.

Metabolic heat in microbial conflict and cooperation

Year: 2020

subject: FOS: Biological sciences

description: Many microbes live in habitats below their optimum temperature. Retention of metabolic heat by aggregation or insulation would boost growth. Generation of excess metabolic heat may also provide benefit. A cell that makes excess metabolic heat pays the cost of production, whereas the benefit may be shared by neighbors within a zone of local heat capture. Metabolic heat as a shareable public good raises interesting questions about conflict and cooperation of heat production and capture. Metabolic heat may also be deployed as a weapon. Species with greater thermotolerance gain by raising local temperature to outcompete less thermotolerant taxa. Metabolic heat may provide defense against bacteriophage attack, by analogy with fever in vertebrates. This article outlines the theory of metabolic heat in microbial conflict and cooperation, presenting several predictions for future study.

description: Centaurus A, the nearest AGN shows molecular absorption in the millimeter and radio regime. By observing the absorption with VLBI, we try to constrain the distribution of the gas, in particular whether it resides in the circumnuclear region. Analysis of VLBA observations in four OH and two H2CO transitions is presented here, as well as molecular excitation models parameterized with distance from the AGN. We conclude that the gas is most likely associated with the tilted molecular ring structure observed before in molecular emission and IR continuum. The formaldehyde absorption shows small scale absorption which requires a different distribution than the hydroxyl.

description: SrCuTe$_2$O$_6$ consists of a 3-dimensional arrangement of spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ Cu$^{2+}$ ions. The 1st, 2nd and 3rd neighbor interactions respectively couple Cu$^{2+}$ moments into a network of isolated triangles, a highly frustrated hyperkagome lattice consisting of corner sharing triangles and antiferromagnetic chains. Of these, the chain interaction dominates in SrCuTe$_2$O$_6$ while the other two interactions lead to frustrated inter-chain coupling giving rise to long range magnetic order at suppressed temperatures. In this paper, we investigate the magnetic properties in SrCuTe$_2$O$_6$ using muon relaxation spectroscopy and neutron diffraction and present the low temperature magnetic structure.

description: Water is a strategic resource. 71 % of the planet is covered by water. From this tremendous volume drinking water is just 2.5%. According to UNESCO more than 1 billion people on the earth suffer from water scarcity. The more rapid the number of people increases, the more rapid the demand for water utilization expands. Different interests bring face to face with each other like: industry, agriculture and households. Therefore the aim of the master thesis is to analyze the opportunities of water production from sea water for drinking water or industrial water purposes. The costs of electricity during the water production provide 54% of the O&M costs. Therefore, the core idea to reduce the water production costs is combining the existing renewable energy source like photovoltaic or wind with desalination technology like reverse osmosis. The thesis will provide a general technical overview, the combining option of technology for a selected location in Mediterranean countries and an analysis from the economic point of view. The core questions to be answered are: Which renewable energy source would be suitable for sea water desalination? Would the implementation of desalination technology be feasible for the chosen Mediterranean country? What would a competitive water production cost â¬/m3 be? To answer this question, first of all, the country needs to be analyzed from the demand side, political willingness to be interested creating a pleasurable regulation frame conditions. Geographical and water data are necessary for choosing the location. After all, the technical and financial requirement will provide a result, that helps the decision maker to see the investment opportunity. The potential investor can use the master thesis as an entire business plan. The pre-selected frames for the master thesis: The analyzed countries are Algeria, Tunisia and Morocco The considered renewable technologies are photovoltaic and wind energy The thesis focus on reverse osmosis desalination technology After determining the frame parameters of the master thesis, the main countries need to be investigated to present basic background information about the possible choice of area for the project. The examination is followed by the determination of area, the required water quality. To hold the focus on economic feasibility, the demand analysis was carefully realized. The technical description of the possible desalination technologies gave an informational overview followed by the detail characterization of a seawater desalination plant. In the economic part of the master thesis, the capital cost, operation and maintenance and water production cost are discussed. In the end the three different possible scenarios for water production will be calculated and discussed in details to answer the core questions of the master thesis.
BCS pairing in a trapped dipolar Fermi gase

description: We present a detailed study of the BCS pairing transition in a trapped polarized dipolar Fermi gas. In the case of a shallow nearly spherical trap, we find the decrease of the transition temperature as a function of the trap aspect ratio and predict the existence of the optimal trap geometry. The latter corresponds to the highest critical temperature of the BCS transition for a given number of particles. We also derive the phase diagram for an ultracold trapped dipolar Fermi gases in the situation, where the trap frequencies can be of the order of the critical temperature of the BCS transition in the homogeneous case, and find the critical value of the dipole-dipole interaction energy, below which the BCS transition ceases to exist. The critical dipole strength is obtained as a function of the trap aspect ratio. Alternatively, for a given dipole strength there is a critical value of the trap anisotropy for the BCS state to appear. The order parameter calculated at criticality, exhibits nover non-monotonic behavior resulted from the combined effect of the confining potential and anisotropic character of the interparticle dipole-dipole interation.

Behavioural and neurotoxic effects of aluminum hydroxide and squalene adjuvants in relation to amyotrophic lateral sclerosis-gulf war illness
Creators: name: Petrik, Michael Steven
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Gulf War Illness (GWI), more commonly known as Gulf War Syndrome, affects a significant percentage of veterans of the 1991 conflict, but its origins remain unknown. Associated with some cases of GWI are increased incidences of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and other neurological disorders. While many environmental factors have been linked to GWI, the role of the anthrax vaccine has come under increasing scrutiny. Among the vaccine’s potentially toxic components are the adjuvants aluminum hydroxide and squalene. To examine whether these compounds might contribute to neuronal deficits associated with GWI, I developed an animal model for examining the potential neurological impact of aluminum hydroxide, squalene, or aluminum hydroxide combined with squalene. Young male colony CD-l mice where injected with the adjuvants at doses equivalent to those given to U.S. military service personnel. All mice were subjected to a battery of behavioural (motor, cognitive and emotional) tests over a six-month period post injections. Following sacrifice, CNS tissues were examined using immunohistochemistry for evidence of inflammation and cell death. Behavioural testing showed motor deficits in the aluminum treatment group that expressed as a progressive decrease in strength measured by the wire mesh hang test (final deficit at 24 weeks: approx. 50%). Significant cognitive deficits in water maze learning in were observed in the combined aluminum and squalene group (4.3 errors/trial) compared to controls (0.2 errors/trial) after 20 weeks. Apoptotic neurons were identified in aluminum injected animals and showed significantly increased activated caspase-3 labeling in lumbar spinal cord (255%) and primary motor cortex (192%) compared to controls. Aluminum treated groups also showed significant motor neuron loss (35%) and increased numbers of 11 activated astrocytes (350%) in the lumbar spinal cord. Preliminary results from Iba-l staining showed microglial proliferation in lumbar spinal cord of aluminum treated animals. Morin staining detected the presence of the aluminum within the cell body and/or nucleus of neurons in this same area. The findings suggest a possible role for the aluminum adjuvant in some neurological features associated with GWI and possibly an additional role for the combination of adjuvants.

description: Static and spherically symmetric perfect fluid solutions of Einstein's field equations with cosmological constant are analysed. After showing existence and uniqueness of a regular solution at the centre the extension of this solution is discussed. Then the existence of global solutions with given equation of state and cosmological constant bounded by 4 pi rho_b, where rho_b is the boundary density (given by the equation of state) of the perfect fluid ball, is proved.

description: The attitudes of individual farmers towards the introduction of the income tax in farms Polish politicians have been promising for many years to introduce the income tax on agricultural activities. However, they insist, that these actions should be preceded by broad consultations, also with those, who the proposed ammendments relate to. Hence, the study presents the opinions of individual farmers from a typical Polish agricultural area, Lublin province, on the announced introduction of the income tax in agriculture. The research shows that almost 40% of respondents positively evaluated the above proposal, and about onethird of them claimed that the taxation of agricultural activities will be very unfavorable for farmers. In addition, approximately 40% of the respondents felt that any changes will affect the increase of the current tax burden on farms in Poland.

description: The aim of the research was to evaluate the functioning of social communication and participation in a rural community using the example of the Zaręby Kościelne municipality. In the municipality, we can observe the formation of good bonds between authorities and inhabitants, which constitute a basis for social participation. Although one-way communication was evaluated as being on a good level by respondents, a low level of interest in participation in the preparation of local administrative documents was observed. To sum up, the inhabitants of the Zaręby Kościelne municipality are aware of the fact that most of the issues and tasks performed by the administration should involve their participation, but they feel the lack of an incentive that would encourage them to participate more actively.

description: The pressure response of double-wall carbon nanotubes has been investigated by means of Raman spectroscopy up to 10 GPa. The intensity of the radial breathing modes of the outer tubes decreases rapidly but remain observable up to 9 GPa, exhibiting a behavior similar (but less pronounced) to that of single-wall carbon nanotubes, which undergo a shape distortion at higher pressures. In addition, the tangential band of the external tubes broadens and decreases in amplitude. The corresponding Raman features of the internal tubes appear to be considerably less sensitive to pressure. All findings lead to the conclusion that the outer tubes act as a protection shield for the inner tubes whereas the latter increase the structural stability of the outer tubes upon pressure application.

A string theory realization of special unitary quivers in 3 dimensions

Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We propose a string theory realization of three-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=4$ quiver gauge theories with special unitary gauge groups. This is most easily understood in type IIA string theory with D4-branes wrapped on holomorphic curves in local K3's, by invoking the Stückelberg mechanism. From the type IIB perspective, this is understood as simply compactifying the familiar Hanany-Witten (HW) constructions on a $T^3$. The mirror symmetry duals are easily derived. We illustrate this with various examples of mirror pairs.

description: The increase in the number of enterprises and their development largely depend on the environment in which they operate. It is important, therefore, that the self-government supports local entrepreneurs. Development of small and medium-sized enterprises as well as socio-economic development of communes depend on an appropriate policy of local authorities. Local governments (at least in theory) have an access to wide range of instruments to create favorable conditions. The government of Stanisławów commune use the opportunity to reduce the size of local fees and taxes what results in growing number of companies registered on its territory each year.
