description: If hierarchical structures interact over several orders of magnitude in size, one talks about mesostructured systems. Due to the potential for synergetic performances, objective of this work was to artificially synthesize and analyze mesostructured fiber networks. The background of this synergetic effect relies in the nanostructure which could boost the performance of fibrous networks significantly. To consolidate the comprehension of the structure-property relationship in such networks, the two mainly applied mechanical methods of measurements on single nanofibers (tensile tests and atomic force microscopy) were examined and brought to matchable results for the first time. The mesoscopic structuring was achieved by combining electrospun fibers with self-assembled fibers into 1 major system and to efficiently use them for the immobilization and separation of particles. On the one hand, novel filter systems were achieved with quality factors (ratio between efficiency and energy consumption) one order of magnitude higher than comparable systems as HEPA filters. On the other hand, gold nanoparticles were well-arranged immobilized inside of a catalysis platform with tea-bag-like properties, so that no aging was observed over several reaction cycles. At the same time, the reaction speed of this system was 4-times higher by applying 60-times less gold compared to earlier systems.

description: The results of this paper demonstrate how the effect of collisions on the group refraction index is small, when the ordinary ray is considered. If, however, in order to improve the performance of a system for automatic interpretation of ionograms, the information contained in ordinary and extraordinary traces is combined, the effect of collisions between the electrons and neutral molecules should be taken into account for the extraordinary ray.

description: In 1994, the Carnegie Corporation of New York issued a report titled Starting Points: Meeting the Needs of Our Youngest Children. Calling its findings "a quiet crisis," the report urged the federal government, states, community leaders, educators, health care decision-makers, service providers, business, leaders, parents, and the philanthropic community to actively work toward four broad goals: promoting responsible parenthood, guaranteeing child care choices, ensuring good health and protection, and mobilizing communities to support young children and their families. Heeding its own call, in January 1996, the Carnegie Corporation made the first awards for the Starting Points States and Communities Partnership for Young Children Grants, a four-and-a-half year, $7 million initiative. Focusing on program improvement, policy development, and public engagement and awareness, the aim was to serve as a catalyst to seed activities to spur both short and long-term systems change within selected states and communities. In 1999, the National Center for Children in Poverty (NCCP) was asked to undertake an assessment of Starting Points to document the variations in context, structure, activities, and accomplishments across the 11 sites that were funded throughout the initiative, including four city sites: Baltimore, Boston, Pittsburgh, and San Francisco; and seven states: Colorado, Florida, Hawaii, North Carolina, Rhode Island, Vermont, and West Virginia.
Matrix metalloproteinases in scarless wound healing
Creators: name: Giannelis, Georgios
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Objectives: Wound healing in skin often results in scar formation, whereas wound healing in oral palatal mucosa is fast and rarely results in scarring. Understanding the mechanisms that promote oral scarless wound healing may provide novel approaches to prevent scar formation in skin. The goal of the study was to compare the abundance of the major collagenases MMP-1 and MMP-13 and gelatinases MMP-2 and MMP-9 in normal unwounded oral mucosa and skin and in experimental excisional wounds in skin (healing results to scar formation) and oral mucosa (wounds heal with minimal scar formation) at various time points post-wounding at the protein level. We hypothesized that the abundance of MMPs will be higher in scarless oral mucosal wound healing, compared to skin wound healing. Methods: Experimental wounds were created in oral palatal mucosa and dorsal skin of red Duroc pigs. Wound biopsies were collected before wounding and at various time points after wounding. The abundance of MMPs at the protein level was assessed by Western blotting and zymography. Results: All studied MMPs showed a significantly increased accumulation in the wound tissue already at day three post-wounding. Their abundance remained high until day 28 when MMP-9 and MMP-13 returned to the level of unwounded tissue, while MMP-1 and MMP-2 remained significantly elevated. Oral mucosal wounds showed in general a robust early up-regulation of MMP-1, MMP-2 and MMP-9 as compared to skin wounds already at day 3 after wounding. In contrast, the peak abundance of these MMPs occurred at day 14 in skin wounds. Unwounded oral mucosa showed significantly higher abundance of total MMP-2 and active MMP-9 as compared to unwounded skin. Thus, MMPs needed for early wound healing response are already present in higher abundance in oral mucosa as compared to skin before tissue injury possibly allowing a fast wound healing response. Conclusions: Results suggest that oral mucosal wound healing is associated with fast and robust regulation of MMPs. Rapid controlled processing of wound extracellular matrix may play a key role in scarless palatal wound healing. In addition, MMPs may regulate inflammatory reaction that plays a central role in scar formation.

description: We give an exact solution for the static force between two black holes at the turning points in their binary motion. The results are derived by Gibbs' principle and the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy applied to the apparent horizon surfaces in time-symmetric initial data. New power laws are derived for the entropy jump in mergers, while Newton's law is shown to derive from a new adiabatic variational principle for the Hilbert action in the presence of apparent horizon surfaces. In this approach, entropy is strictly monotonic such that gravity is attractive for all separations including mergers, and the Bekenstein entropy bound is satisfied also at arbitrarily large separations, where gravity reduces to Newton's law. The latter is generalized to point particles in the Newtonian limit by application of Gibbs' principle to world-lines crossing light cones.

description: In the context of departures from Special Relativity written as a momentum power expansion in the inverse of an ultraviolet energy scale M, we derive the constraints that the relativity principle imposes between coefficients of a deformed composition law, dispersion relation, and transformation laws, at first order in the power expansion. In particular, we find that, at that order, the consistency of a modification of the energy-momentum composition law fixes the modification in the dispersion relation. We therefore obtain the most generic modification of Special Relativity that preserves the relativity principle at leading order in 1/M.

description: In dieser klinischen Studie an 22 Patienten mit schwerer intrazerebraler Pathologie im Sinne einer intrakraniellen Blutung, einer Subarachnoidalblutung oder eines schweren Schädel-Hirn-Traumas wurde mithilfe der hirnvenösen Sauerstoffsättigung im Bulbus der Vena jugularis die Frage untersucht, ob durch die kompromittierte Beatmungssituation während einer perkutanen dilatativen Tracheotomie (PDT) nach Ciaglia mit der BlueRhino-Methode eine Gefährdung entsteht. Wir konnten moderate Anstiege des Hirndruckes bei stabilem zerebralem Perfusionsdruck sowie teils eine moderate Hyperkapnie nachweisen. Der zerebrale Blutfluss sowie die Oxygenierung waren stets suffizient. Die Studie zeigt, dass die zügig durchgeführte PDT auch beim Patienten mit intrazerebraler Pathologie eine sicher anzuwendende Methode ist.
description: In this clinical study of 22 patients with severe intracerebral pathology, i.e. intracranial hemorrhage, subarachnoid hemorrhage or severe craniocerebral trauma, the question was examined whether the compromised ventilation situation during percutaneous dilated tracheostomy (PDT) using the Cook® Ciaglia Blue Rhino™ method endangers the patient by measuring the brain-venous oxygen saturation in the bulb of the jugular vein. We found moderate increases in intracranial pressure with concurrent stable cerebral perfusion pressure and, in part, moderate hypercapnia. Cerebral blood flow and oxygenation were always sufficient. The study shows that PDT is a safe method for patients with intracerebral pathology if implement expeditiously.

description: We provide a rationale for a new class of double-hybrid approximations introduced by Brémond and Adamo [J. Chem. Phys. 135, 024106 (2011)] which combine an exchange-correlation density functional with Hartree-Fock exchange weighted by $ł$ and second-order Møller-Plesset (MP2) correlation weighted by $ł^3$. We show that this double-hybrid model can be understood in the context of the density-scaled double-hybrid model proposed by Sharkas et al. [J. Chem. Phys. 134, 064113 (2011)], as approximating the density-scaled correlation functional $E_c[n_{1/ł}]$ by a linear function of $ł$, interpolating between MP2 at $ł=0$ and a density-functional approximation at $ł=1$. Numerical results obtained with the Perdew-Burke-Ernzerhof density functional confirms the relevance of this double-hybrid model.

description: A 6th-order, but ghost-free, gauge-invariant action is found for a 4th-rank symmetric tensor potential in a three-dimensional (3D) Minkowski spacetime. It propagates two massive modes of spin 4 that are interchanged by parity, and is thus a spin-4 analog of linearized "new massive gravity". Also found are ghost-free spin-4 analogs of linearized "topologically massive gravity" and "new topologically massive gravity", of 5th- and 8th-order respectively.

description: Patient decrees for minors are not legally effective in Germany. In 2009 a Do-Not-Rescuscitate-Order (DNR-Order) for children was published, which was recommended by many German pediatric medical societies (Rellensmann and Hasan, 2009). The present study intends to determine if the mentioned form is used by German palliative care institutions. A questionnaire with 10 items was sent to 174 institutions that are involved in pediatric palliative care between 3 August 2012 and 31 January 2014. 47,6% of replying institutions used the DNR-Order for children. Suggestions for improvement included more space for individuell whishes and an individualized emergency plan. The form is signed by the treating physician and nurse. The discussion has to be conducted and recorded by a multi-professional team. The present study summarizes all collected data within a suggestion for a new advanced pediatric care planning standard form for minors in Germany.

description: In two papers entitled "On a new foundation [Neue Begründung] of quantum mechanics," Pascual Jordan (1927b,g) presented his version of what came to be known as the Dirac-Jordan statistical transformation theory. As an alternative that avoids the mathematical difficulties facing the approach of Jordan and Paul A. M. Dirac (1927), John von Neumann (1927a) developed the modern Hilbert space formalism of quantum mechanics. In this paper, we focus on Jordan and von Neumann. Central to the formalisms of both are expressions for conditional probabilities of finding some value for one quantity given the value of another. Beyond that Jordan and von Neumann had very different views about the appropriate formulation of problems in quantum mechanics. For Jordan, unable to let go of the analogy to classical mechanics, the solution of such problems required the identication of sets of canonically conjugate variables, i.e., p's and q's. For von Neumann, not constrained by the analogy to classical mechanics, it required only the identication of a maximal set of commuting operators with simultaneous eigenstates. He had no need for p's and q's. Jordan and von Neumann also stated the characteristic new rules for probabilities in quantum mechanics somewhat differently. Jordan (1927b) was the first to state those rules in full generality. Von Neumann (1927a) rephrased them and, in a subsequent paper (von Neumann, 1927b), sought to derive them from more basic considerations. In this paper we reconstruct the central arguments of these 1927 papers by Jordan and von Neumann and of a paper on Jordan's approach by Hilbert, von Neumann, and Nordheim (1928). We highlight those elements in these papers that bring out the gradual loosening of the ties between the new quantum formalism and classical mechanics.

description: Over the past twenty years, institutional repositories (IRs) have become commonplace across most colleges and universities. While IRs were originally conceived as a means to collect and disseminate faculty scholarship, in recent years it has become apparent that this may not be the most effective use case for the modern IR. In light of this changing landscape, how should IR managers think about the IR today? This session will provide an overview of the forthcoming book Rethinking Institutional Repositories, published by ACRL, which seeks to answer this question through contributions from IR managers at a wide range of institutions. The session will also briefly highlight several case studies from the book that provide practical suggestions for managing the modern IR, developing innovative projects and use cases for the IR, and using the IR as a means to highlight and showcase diverse voices and viewpoints and to provide an inclusive platform for all members of the community.

description: This work covers two aspects of microwave communication technology. The first is the analysis and design of new wideband high gain microstrip antennas and the second aspect is the design of compact high performance low-pass and band-pass filters. We have introduced the resonating coupling slot in the aperture coupled microstrip antenna to increase its bandwidth. A new method is reported for impedance matching of the antenna structure with 50-Ohm microstrip feed line. Also we have developed the concept of the short surface mounted horn to increase the gain without adversely affecting its bandwidth. By inserting the horn into the substrate, the gain of the patch antenna has been increased by more than 6 dB. The surface mounted horn has been applied around the four and eight element arrays. An increase of 3.5 dB in gain has been obtained with the horn frame around the array elements. For the compact microstrip based filter design we have adopted the defected ground structure (DGS). We have shown that proper selection of the shape and position of DGS slot is important for the improved performance of the low-pass filter in the stop and transition bands. We have also introduced the band-pass structure in the DGS configuration and used it to design a new compact band-pass filter.

description: The dilaton, a pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson appearing in spontaneous scale symmetry breaking at a TeV scale f, may be found in Higgs boson searches. The dilaton couples to standard model fermions and weak bosons with the same structure as the Higgs boson except for the overall strength. Additionally, the dilaton couples to a Higgs boson pair. The couplings of the dilaton to a gluon pair and a photon pair, appearing at loop level, are largely enhanced compared to the corresponding Higgs couplings. We present regions of the mass and VEV of the dilaton allowed by WW, ZZ, and gammagamma limits from the LHC at 7 TeV with 1.0-2.3 fb-1 integrated luminosity. A scale of f less than 1 TeV is nearly excluded. We discuss how the dilaton chi can be distinguished from the Higgs boson h by observation of the decays chi -> gammagamma and chi -> hh -> (WW)(WW).

Genome-wide analysis of endocytic recycling in S. cerevisiae
Creators: name: Burston, Helen Elizabeth
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The process of endocytic recycling, in which cell surface proteins are internalized and re-delivered to the plasma membrane, is essential in all eukaryotes for maintaining plasma membrane composition and regulating the surface levels of signaling receptors. The applicability of Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a model to study endocytic recycling is a subject of debate, as there appears to be critical differences between yeast and mammalian cells. For example, while clathrin and its adaptors are critical for uptake in mammals, they do not seem to be essential in yeast. Endocytic recycling has not been comprehensively studied on a genetic level in yeast, and only limited cargo have been considered, making it difficult to accurately assess the similarity between the two systems. Furthermore, the transport of SNARE proteins is poorly understood, but appears to involve specialized mechanisms. This study uses a genome-wide screening approach to systematically and quantitatively identify genes required for the endocytic recycling of the yeast SNARE protein Snc1, homologous to the mammalian VAMP2/synaptobrevin. Endocytic defects for mutants of many yeast homologs of mammalian endocytosis genes were identified, for the first time. Significantly, a cargo-selective and partially-redundant role for clathrin and its adaptors yAP1801 and yAP1802 was identified. The lipid phosphatase Inp52 was found to mediate AP180 release from endocytic vesicles. Additionally, the previously uncharacterized protein Ldb17, homologous to the mammalian endocytic protein SPIN90, was identified as a new component of the endocytic machinery, and regulates both coat and actin dynamics at endocytic sites. Factors regulating Snc1 recycling were also identified, including the variant clathrin adaptor AP-1R. This is the first reported function for this complex. The previously uncharacterized protein Ima1 was found to be a putative enzyme that specifically binds to AP-1R, and may have activity related to AP-1R function. Overall, this study demonstrates that endocytic recycling in yeast and mammals is more similar than previously appreciated, and identifies new factors in this process. Furthermore, it raises awareness of the degree of cargo-selectivity underlying this pathway, and demonstrates quantitative methods that can be further applied to future studies in both systems.
Catastrophic quenching in alpha-Omega dynamos revisited

Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)

description: At large magnetic Reynolds numbers, magnetic helicity evolution plays an important role in astrophysical large-scale dynamos. The recognition of this fact led to the development of the dynamical alpha quenching formalism, which predicts catastrophically low mean fields in open systems. Here we show that in oscillatory alpha-Omega dynamos this formalism predicts an unphysical magnetic helicity transfer between scales. An alternative technique is proposed where this artifact is removed by using the evolution equation for the magnetic helicity of the total field in the shearing--advective gauge. In the traditional dynamical alpha quenching formalism, this can be described as an additional magnetic helicity flux of small-scale fields that does not appear in homogeneous alpha-squared dynamos. In alpha-Omega dynamos, the alternative formalism is shown to lead to larger saturation fields than previously obtained with the traditional formalism.

Random Transverse Field Ising model in $d=2$ : analysis via Boundary Strong Disorder Renormalization

description: To avoid the complicated topology of surviving clusters induced by standard Strong Disorder RG in dimension $d>1$, we introduce a modified procedure called 'Boundary Strong Disorder RG' where the order of decimations is chosen a priori. We apply numerically this modified procedure to the Random Transverse Field Ising model in dimension $d=2$. We find that the location of the critical point, the activated exponent $ψ\simeq 0.5$ of the Infinite Disorder scaling, and the finite-size correlation exponent $ν_{FS} \simeq 1.3$ are compatible with the values obtained previously by standard Strong Disorder RG.Our conclusion is thus that Strong Disorder RG is very robust with respect to changes in the order of decimations. In addition, we analyze in more details the RG flows within the two phases to show explicitly the presence of various correlation length exponents : we measure the typical correlation exponent $ν_{typ} \simeq 0.64$ in the disordered phase (this value is very close to the correlation exponent $ν^Q_{pure}(d=2) \simeq 0.63$ of the {\it pure} two-dimensional quantum Ising Model), and the typical exponent $ν_h \simeq 1$ within the ordered phase. These values satisfy the relations between critical exponents imposed by the expected finite-size scaling properties at Infinite Disorder critical points. Within the disordered phase, we also measure the fluctuation exponent $ω\simeq 0.35$ which is compatible with the Directed Polymer exponent $ω_{DP}(1+1)=1/3$ in $(1+1)$ dimensions.

In subsequent years, the first point-like neutrino source candidates, a flaring blazar known as TXS 0506+056 and the active galaxy NGC 1068, emerged. Now, in this work, a new milestone in the rising field of neutrino astronomy is presented: the first observation of high-energy neutrinos from our own Galaxy — the Milky Way. A search for Galactic neutrino emission is performed on 10 years of IceCube data, rejecting the background-only hypothesis at the 4.5σ significance level. The observed Galactic neutrino flux, believed to originate from diffuse interactions of cosmic rays, possibly in addition to contributions from unresolved point-like sources, may explain up to 10% of the astrophysical neutrino flux previously measured by IceCube. This observation is enabled by novel tools based on deep learning, developed in this dissertation. In comparison to prior IceCube analyses, the sensitivity is improved by a factor up to four, due to improved event reconstructions and an increased effective area by over an order of magnitude. These tools not only lead to the most sensitive neutrino dataset to date in the Southern Sky, but they also enable a wide variety of future applications and analyses that were previously unattainable.
Adopting Digital Pedagogy in Management Courses

description: The Supply Chain Management exercise called the “Beer Game” is based on experiential learning and a team game educational approach (Sterman, 1992). The Beer Game has been adapted in several of our university’s undergraduate courses, however, there were some challenges with its implementation. Specifically, the game date is scheduled based on venue availability (a room with capacity of 400 seats on or off campus). Previously, up to 25% of students would have time conflicts with other university courses, illness, a failed commute to campus, or sporting extracurricular activities. These students would miss the game and lose out on this learning opportunity. To provide fair and flexible learning opportunities for students, the author pioneered an on-line Beer Game. Although learning benefits of face-to-face board games are widely reviewed in literature (Treher, 2011), on-line options can be successful and allow for more student access to the learning activity (Li, 2000, Chen et al., 1999). Extended search of industry providers identified a vendor for an on-line simulation version of the game: Responsive. The first round of the on-line game was successfully completed in the Fall 2018 semester and is planned to be extended to Winter 2019 for undergraduate and graduate courses. The author achieved IRISS approval for a student survey with Big Question: how student’s Performance (effectiveness of learning), Engagement (participation and team interaction), and Satisfaction (appreciation of the course subject) vary between a group of students who completed the game face-to-face and students who played on-line.

The Deficit Reduction Act of 2005: Opportunities and Challenges for ECCS Initiatives

description: This Project THRIVE Short Take examines the potential impact of the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005 (DRA) on health access and coverage for young children ages birth to 5 years. The core provisions of the DRA are described in contrast to existing law, and opportunities and threats are discussed. The last section offers recommendations and resources for further study. Each state's Early Childhood Comprehensive System (ECCS) initiative has a component focused on assuring health access and a medical home for every child. The DRA changes to Medicaid have important implications for assuring health coverage and access and will potentially have their greatest impact on young children who are more likely to be covered through Medicaid than older children. These new options and requirements in Medicaid should be considered both in states developing ECCS plans and those implementing early childhood system changes.
Certified quantum non-demolition measurement of material systems

description: An extensive debate on quantum non-demolition (QND) measurement, reviewed in Grangier et al. [Nature, {\bf 396}, 537 (1998)], finds that true QND measurements must have both non-classical state-preparation capability and non-classical information-damage tradeoff. Existing figures of merit for these non-classicality criteria require direct measurement of the signal variable and are thus difficult to apply to optically-probed material systems. Here we describe a method to demonstrate both criteria without need for to direct signal measurements. Using a covariance matrix formalism and a general noise model, we compute meter observables for QND measurement triples, which suffice to compute all QND figures of merit. The result will allow certified QND measurement of atomic spin ensembles using existing techniques.

description: We explore different variants of the random phase approximation (RPA) to the correlation energy derived from closed-shell ring-diagram approximations to coupled cluster doubles theory. We implement these variants in range-separated density-functional theory, i.e. by combining the long-range random phase approximations with short-range density-functional approximations. We perform tests on the rare-gas dimers He_2, Ne_2, and Ar_2, and on the weakly interacting molecular complexes of the S22 set of Jurecka et al. [Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. 8, 1985 (2006)]. The two best variants correspond to the ones originally proposed by Szabo and Ostlund [J. Chem. Phys. 67, 4351 (1977)]. With range separation, they reach mean absolute errors on the equilibrium interaction energies of the S22 set of about 0.4 kcal/mol, corresponding to mean absolute percentage errors of about 4 %, with the aug-cc-pVDZ basis set.
