description: Un homme capture une jeune chienne qui peut prendre l’apparence d’une femme. Pour vivre chez lui au milieu de ses frères, celle-ci reprend son apparence canine. Alors que son mari s’absente pour chasser, elle se fait maltraiter par les frères de ce dernier, et retourne chez les siens. L’homme va la chercher chez eux, et apprend à enfiler leur « chemise » de chien pour prendre leur forme animale. Il ramène ensuite sa femme chez lui, mais celle-ci se fait tuer par un jaguar. L’homme dérobe alors la chemise du fauve pour le tuer. Sous cette forme de jaguar, il tue également la sœur de son frère puîné, qui ne le croyait pas, et n’avait pas écouté ses conseils pour le rencontrer sous forme de jaguar. Le héros demeure ensuite sous cette forme et finit par aller vivre avec les jaguars sur leur terre d’origine.

description: The impact of a random disorder potential on the dynamical properties of Bose Einstein condensates is a very wide research field. In microcavities, these studies are even more crucial than in the condensates of cold atoms, since random disorder is naturally present in the semiconductor structures. In this chapter, we consider a stable condensate, defined by a chemical potential, propagating in a random disorder potential, like a liquid flowing through a capillary. We analyze the interplay between the kinetic energy, the localization energy, and the interaction between particles in 1D and 2D polariton condensates. The finite life time of polaritons is taken into account as well. In the first part, we remind the results of [G. Malpuech et al. Phys. Rev. Lett. 98, 206402 (2007).] where we considered the case of a static condensate. In that case, the condensate forms either a glassy insulating phase at low polariton density (strong localization), or a superfluid phase above the percolation threshold. We also show the calculation of the first order spatial coherence of the condensate versus the condensate density. In the second part, we consider the case of a propagating non-interacting condensate which is always localized because of Anderson localization. The localization length is calculated in the Born approximation. The impact of the finite polariton life time is taken into account as well. In the last section we consider the case of a propagating interacting condensate where the three regimes of strong localization, Anderson localization, and superfluid behavior are accessible. The localization length is calculated versus the system parameters. The localization length is strongly modified with respect to the non-interacting case. It is infinite in the superfluid regime whereas it is strongly reduced if the fluid flows with a supersonic velocity.

description: Starting from the BBGKY hierarchy, describing the kinetics of nonlinear particle system, we obtain the relevant entropy and stationary distribution function. Subsequently, by employing the Lorentz transformations we propose the relativistic generalization of the exponential and logarithmic functions. The related particle distribution and entropy represents the relativistic extension of the classical Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution and of the Boltzmann entropy respectively and define the statistical mechanics presented in [Phys. Rev. E {\bf 66}, 056125 (2002)] and [Phys. Rev. E {\bf 72}, 036108 (2005). The achievements of the present effort, support the idea that the experimentally observed power law tailed statistical distributions in plasma physics, are enforced by the relativistic microscopic particle dynamics.

description: A long, relativistic charged particle beam propagating in a plasma is subject to the self-modulation instability. This instability is analyzed and the growth rate is calculated, including the phase relation. The phase velocity of the accelerating field is shown to be significantly less than the drive beam velocity. These results indicate that the energy gain of a plasma accelerator driven by a self-modulated beam will be severely limited by dephasing. In the long-beam, strongly-coupled regime, dephasing is reached in less than four e-foldings, independent of beam-plasma parameters.

Lepton number violating effects in neutrino oscillations

Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: We develop a non-adiabatic perturbation theory for oscillations involving an arbitrary number of neutrino and antineutrino species, including the possibility of lepton number violation which we treat as a small effect. We interpret the physics of such an approach for the one generation case by introducing the notion of adiabaticity for neutrino and antineutrino oscillations in analogy to flavor oscillations. We find that in a CP-odd matter environment a small lepton number violation in vacuo can be enhanced. Eventually, we apply the perturbation theory to the two generation case and work out an example for manifestations of lepton number violation, which can be solved both perturbatively as well as analytically thereby further clarifying the nature of the perturbation expansion.

description: In this paper, we study harmonic mappings by using the shear construction, introduced by Clunie and Sheil-Small in 1984. We consider two classes of conformal mappings, each of which maps the unit disk D univalently onto a domain which is convex in the horizontal direction, and shear these mappings with suitable dilatations ω. Mappings of the first class map the unit disk D onto four-slit domains and mappings of the second class take D onto regular n-gons. In addition, we discuss the minimal surfaces associated with such harmonic mappings. Furthermore, illustrations of mappings and associated minimal surfaces are given by using Mathematica.

description: We report on results of imaging and spectral analysis of the supernova remnant (SNR) RCW 86 observed with Suzaku. The SNR is known to exhibit K-shell emission of low ionized Fe, possibly originating from supernova ejecta. We revealed the global distribution of the Fe-rich plasma in the entire remnant, for the first time; the Fe-K emission was clearly detected from the west, north, and south regions, in addition to the X-ray brighter shells of southwest and northeast, where the presence of the Fe-rich ejecta has already been reported. The spectrum of each region is well represented by a three-component model consisting of low- and high-temperature thermal plasmas and a non-thermal emission. The lower-temperature component, with elemental abundances of near the solar values, likely originates from the forward shocked interstellar medium, while the Fe-rich ejecta is described by the hotter plasma. From the morphologies of the forward and reverse shocks in the west region, the total ejecta mass is estimated to be 1-2M_sun for the typical explosion energy of ~ 1 x 10^{51} erg. The integrated flux of the Fe-K emission from the entire SNR roughly corresponds to a total Fe mass of about 1M_sun. Both of these estimates suggest a Type Ia supernova origin of this SNR. We also find possible evidence of an Fe-rich clump located beyond the forward-shock front in the north rim, which is reminiscent of ejecta knots observed in the Tycho and Vela SNRs.

description: This study aims at developing an experimental method to characterise the fluid dynamic stress acting on particles in a lab-scale stirred tank reactor. The method is based on a photo-optical inline particle size measurement technique, which is able to capture the complex morphology of a stress-sensitive clay-floc system. The novel image-based analysis uses a Convolutional Neural Network (CNN), which was trained for particle detection. Its output provides a high-quality particle recognition for subsequent size and shape analysis throughout the flocculation process under various experimental conditions. The flocculation system is used to characterise the stress induced by four impeller geometries in the reactor. The obtained changes of floc size and shape allow to evaluate the particle stress in more detail compared to previous studies. The agreement of main findings of the floc breakage process with known literature assesses the developed method to be applied successfully in further studies.

description: Heterogeneous wireless sensor networks (HWSNET) are more suitable for real life applications as compared to the homogeneous counterpart. Security of HWSNET becomes a very important issue with the rapid development of HWSNET. Intrusion detection system is one of the major and efficient defensive methods against attacks in HWSNET. Because of different constraints of sensor networks, security solutions have to be designed with limited usage of computation and resources. A particularly devastating attack is the sleep deprivation attack. Here a malicious node forces legitimate nodes to waste their energy by resisting the sensor nodes from going into low power sleep mode. The target of this attack is to maximize the power consumption of the affected node, thereby decreasing its battery life. Existing works on sleep deprivation attack have mainly focused on mitigation using MAC based protocols, such as S-MAC (sensor MAC), T-MAC (timeout MAC), B-MAC (Berkley MAC), G-MAC (gateway MAC). In this article, a brief review of some of the recent intrusion detection systems in wireless sensor network environment is presented. Finally, a framework of cluster based layered countermeasure for Insomnia Detection has been proposed for heterogeneous wireless sensor network (HWSNET) to efficiently detect sleep deprivation attack. Simulation results on MATLAB exhibit the effectiveness of the proposed model.

description: We use small angle neutron scattering to study the superconducting vortex lattice in La$_{2-x}$Sr$_x$CuO$_4$ as a function of doping and magnetic field. We show that near optimally doping the vortex lattice coordination and the superconducting coherence length $ξ$ are controlled by a van-Hove singularity crossing the Fermi level near the Brillouin zone boundary. The vortex lattice properties change dramatically as a spin-density-wave instability is approached upon underdoping. The Bragg glass paradigm provides a good description of this regime and suggests that SDW order acts as a novel source of disorder on the vortex lattice.

description: Food hubs (FHs) providing neighbourhoods with regional food from agroecological production are a promising concept for a sustainable food system transformation. However, their operationalization and scaling are still unclear. We developed a methodological approach that, for the first time, scales out FHs to an entire city (Berlin) based on a 15-min walking distance and socio-culturally oriented sub-districts as underlying spatial units. We considered the population density and the distance to organic groceries, public transportation and between FHs to estimate their most suitable locations. The results reveal an optimal allocation of 231 FHs covering 91% of the city's populated areas in a radius lower than 1 km and almost the entire city within a 1.5 km radius. We found this approach to be a meaningful way to plan the inner-city allocation of FHs from an integrative perspective and to adopt urban policies by considering the local specificities of each neighbourhood. The scaling out of agroecology-based regional FHs in Berlin allows for the creation of a sustainable city-region food system that increases the resilience of the metropolitan food environment. We generally propose a participative and integrative approach in order to realise this process.

description: Electronic and spintronic devices rely on the fact that free charge carriers in solids carry electric charge and spin, respectively. There are, however, other properties of charge carriers that might be exploited in new families of devices. In particular, if there are two or more conduction (or valence) band extrema in momentum space, then confining charge carriers in one of these valleys allows the possibility of valleytronic devices. Such valley polarization has been demonstrated by using strain and magnetic fields, but neither of these approaches allow for dynamic control. Recently, optical control of valley occupancy in graphene with broken inversion symmetry has been proposed but remains experimentally difficult to realize. Here we demonstrate that optical pumping with circularly-polarized light can achieve complete dynamic valley polarization in monolayer MoS2, a two dimensional (2D) non-centrosymmetric crystal with direct energy gaps at two valleys. Moreover, this polarization is retained for longer than 1 ns. Our results demonstrate the viability of optical valley control and valley-based electronic and optoelectronic applications in MoS2 monolayers.

Fast transition of type-B QPO in the black hole transient XTE J1817-330

description: The evolution of different types of quasi-periodic oscillations (QPOs) and the coupled radiative/physical changes in the accretion disk are still poorly understood. In a few black hole binaries it was found that fast evolution of QPOs is associated with spectral variations. Such studies in other black hole binaries are important to understand the QPO phenomenon. For the black hole transient XTE J1817-330, we study fast QPO transitions and accompanying spectral variations to investigate what causes the spectral variation during the QPO transition. Roy et al. (2011) found QPOs in ten RXTE observations of XTE J1817-330. We found that, among the ten observations, only one observation shows erratic dips in its X-ray light curve. The power density spectra and the corresponding energy spectra were extracted and analyzed for the dip and non-dip sections of the light curve. We found that type-B $\sim$6 Hz QPO changes into type-A QPO in a few tens of seconds along with a flux decrease. This transient evolution is accompanied with a significant spectral variation. We report a transient QPO feature and accompanying spectral variation in XTE J1817-330. Based on our findings, we discuss the origin of fast evolution of QPOs and spectral variations.

Implementation of the direct evaluation of strains using a phase analysis code for random patterns

Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Medical Physics (physics.med-ph)

description: A new approach for decoding directly strains from surfaces encoded with random patterns has been developed and validated. It is based on phase analysis of small region of interest. Here we adapt to random patterns new concepts proposed by Badulescu (2009) on the grid method. First metrological results are encouraging: resolution is proportional to strain level, being 9% of the nominal value, for a spatial resolution of 9 pixels (ZOI 64 \times 64 pixels2). Random noise has to be carefully controlled. A numerical example shows the relevance of the approach. Then, first application on a carbon fiber reinforced composite is developed. Fabric intertwining is studied using a tensile test. Over-strains are clearly visible, and results connect well with the previous studies
title: Advanced molecular genetic profiling of freshwater snails and schistosomes to characterise and to compare schistosomiasis transmission in Malawi and Saudi Arabia.

Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository

description: My thesis implemented molecular methods of snail and schistosome identification in a novel attempt to better understand schistosomiasis transmission in Malawi and Saudi Arabia, respectively. I investigated several factors that may play important roles within and between the two country settings. I conducted several malacological surveys, three in Malawi and two in Saudi Arabia, measuring key environmental variables, mapping snail and parasite populations and thereafter using molecular characterisation methods, for example, by PCR-RFLP, DNA sequencing, microsatellite markers and phylogenetic tree construction methods. With regard to Malawi, novel snail distribution maps of various planorbid snail species, with focus upon Biomphalaria and Bulinus, were presented. I also noted the presence of Lymnaea, conducting basic DNA typing. Most importantly, the spread of Biomphalaria pfeifferi, a keystone intermediate host for Schistosoma mansoni, between 2017 and 2019, was confirmed. Assembled molecular evidence pointed towards a recent populational founder effect for this species as it exhibited low genetic diversity at all loci inspected. By real-time PCR, the prevalence of S. mansoni within Bi. pfeifferi was 18% and underpins the newly appreciated environmental risk of intestinal schistosomiasis transmission within Lake Malawi. Similarly, DNA evidence confirmed the presence of Bulinus globosus but newly reported the presence of Bulinus africanus and two, as of yet, poorly known species within the Bu. africanus species group. These can now be better recognised and more easily detected with a PCR-RFLP assay of the cox1 using double digestion with HaeIII and SacI restriction enzymes. By real-time PCR the prevalence of Schistosoma haematobium within snails was 28%. Furthermore, characterisation of available miracidia, using a combination of mitochondrial and nuclear loci, from locally infected children identified the presence of novel schistosome hybrids of S. haematobium-mattheei as well as characterised group IV S. mansoni. With regard to Saudi Arabia, the presence of Bi. pfeifferi, and not Bi. arabica, was confirmed; snails presenting with limited microsatellite variation but were slightly genetically divergent to those from Africa and Madagascar. Although no Biomphalaria was found shedding schistosome cercariae, real-time PCR analysis suggested some 13% were infected with S. mansoni. Molecular characterisation also confirmed the presence of Bu. forskalii, never before confirmed locally. Information within my thesis is of direct use to national schistosomiasis control planning by providing up-to-date information on snail and schistosomes distributions in each country. Moreover, I have helped to clarify previously cryptic aspects within the snail-schistosome relationship in each country.

description: Magnetic-stimuli responsive hydrogels are quickly becoming a promising class of materials across numerous fields, including biomedical devices, soft robotic actuators, and wearable electronics. Hydrogels are commonly fabricated by conventional methods that limit the potential for complex architectures normally required for rapidly changing custom configurations. Rapid prototyping using 3D printing provides a solution for this. Previous work has shown successful extrusion 3D printing of magnetic hydrogels; however, extrusion-based printing is limited by nozzle resolution and ink viscosity. VAT photopolymerization offers a higher control over resolution and build-architecture. Liquid photo-resins with magnetic nanocomposites normally suffer from nanoparticle agglomeration due to local magnetic fields. In this work, we develop an optimised method for homogenously infusing up to 2 wt % superparamagnetic iron oxide nanoparticles (SPIONs) with a 10 nm diameter into a photo-resin composed of water, acrylamide and PEGDA, with improved nanoparticle homogeneity and reduced agglomeration during printing. The 3D printed starfish hydrogels exhibited high mechanical stability and robust mechanical properties with a maximum Youngs modulus of 1.8 MPa and limited shape deformation of 10% when swollen. Each individual arm of the starfish could be magnetically actuated when a remote magnetic field is applied. The starfish could grab onto a magnet with all arms when a central magnetic field was applied. Ultimately, these hydrogels retained their shape post-printing and returned to their original formation once the magnetic field had been removed. These hydrogels can be used across a wide range of applications, including soft robotics and magnetically stimulated actuators.

For each system, the minimum accreted mass is ~10^22 g, that of a large asteroid. In PG1225-079, Mg, Cr, Mn, Fe and Ni have abundance ratios similar to bulk Earth values, while we measure four refractory elements, Ca, Sc, Ti and V, all at a factor of ~2-3 higher abundance than in the bulk Earth. For HS2253+8023 the swallowed material was compositionally similar to bulk Earth in being more than 85% by mass in the major element species, O, Mg, Si, and Fe, and with abundances in the distinctive proportions of mineral oxides - compelling evidence for an origin in a rocky parent body. Including previous studies we now know of four heavily polluted white dwarfs where the measured oxygen and hydrogen are consistent with the view that the parents bodies formed with little ice, interior to any snow-line in their nebular environments. The growing handful of polluted white dwarf systems with comprehensive abundance measurements form a baseline for characterizing rocky exoplanet compositions that can be compared with bulk Earth.

description: In a recent study Viskadourakis et al. discovered that extremely underdoped La_2CuO_(4+x) is a relaxor ferroelectric and a magnetoelectric material at low temperatures. It is further observed that the magnetoelectric response is anisotropic for different directions of electric polarization and applied magnetic field. By constructing an appropriate Landau theory, we show that a bi-quadratic magnetoelectric coupling can explain the experimentally observed polarization dependence on magnetic field. This coupling leads to several novel low-temperature effects including a feedback enhancement of the magnetization below the ferroelectric transition, and a predicted magnetocapacitive effect.

description: We study theoretically the transfer of quantum information along bends in two-dimensional discrete lattices. Our analysis shows that the fidelity of the transfer decreases considerably, as a result of interactions in the neighbourhood of the bend. It is also demonstrated that such losses can be controlled efficiently by the inclusion of a defect. The present results are of relevance to various physical implementations of quantum networks, where geometric imperfections with finite spatial extent may arise as a result of bending, residual stress, etc.

A novel experiment searching for the lepton flavour violating decay mu -> eee
Creators: name: Berger, Niklaus
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Since the discovery of neutrino oscillations it is known that lepton flavour is not conserved. Lepton flavour violating processes in the charged lepton sector have so far however eluded detection; as they are heavily suppressed in the standard model of particle physics, an observation would be a clear signal for new physics and help to understand the source of neutrino masses and CP violation. We propose a novel experiment searching for the decay mu -> eee with the aim of ultimately reaching a sensitivity of 10^-16, an improvement by four orders of magnitude compared to previous experiments. The technologies enabling this step are thin high-voltage monolithic active pixel sensors for precise tracking at high rates with a minimum of material and scintillating fibres for high resolution time measurements.

Bright and dark modes induced by graphene bubbles

Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)

description: Through a lattice dynamics analysis, it is revealed that the bubble plays a role of energy shield in the graphene, which helps to split the normal modes into two categories of distinct topological nature, namely the bright and dark modes. The topological invariants, Euler characteristic, of the bright and dark modes are 1 and 0, respectively. For bright modes, the energy is confined inside the bubble, so this type of modes are sensitive to the shape of the bubble; while opposite phenomenon is observed for the dark modes. The different behavior from these two types of normal modes is examined and verified in the process of phonon thermal transport. The bright and dark modes are expected to be distinguished in experiment with existing scanning force microscope techniques, and they should play significant roles in many other physical processes.

description: Aim: To review and synthesize evidence relating to the role of nurse practitioners and family physicians in the early intervention of depression and suicidal behaviours in youth within Canada. Design: The protocol for this scoping review was developed according to the Joanna Briggs Institute (JBI) methodologic guidance for scoping reviews. Methods: MEDLINE, CINAHL, EMBASE, and APA PsycInfo databases will be searched. Abstracts will be assessed for eligibility and full texts will be retrieved if they meet the inclusion criteria. Two reviewers will independently extract the data from identified studies using a data extraction form, and the results will be summarized descriptively and in tabular format. Discussion: Though there is consensus that primary care providers (PCPs) have a role in the early detection and treatment of depression and suicidal behaviours, determining the details of what this role entails has been a challenge. There is also a lack of literature regarding this topic specific to both youth populations and the Canadian primary care context. An increased understanding of PCPs’ role in addressing youth depression and suicidal behaviours, as well as the stresses related to this role, can inform strategies for supporting PCPs. Impact: The findings from this review can inform healthcare policies, continuing education for nurse practitioners and family physicians, and nursing practices to support those providing early detection and treatment. Supporting PCPs in carrying out this role can increase the number of youths who receive timely intervention, in turn reducing youth morbidity and mortality.

description: The study of the Cu-Sn-In ternary system has become of great importance in recent years, due to new environmental regulations forcing to eliminate the use of Pb in bonding technologies for electronic devices. A key relevant issue concerns the intermetallic phases which grow in the bonding zone and are determining in their quality and performance. In this work, we focus in the η-phase (Cu2In or Cu6Sn5) that exists in both end binaries and as a ternary phase. We present a neutron diffraction study of the constitution and crystallography of a series of alloys around the 60 at.% Cu composition, and with In contents ranging from 0 to 25 at.%, quenched from 300\degreeC. The alloys were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, probe microanalysis and high-resolution neutron diffraction. The Rietveld refinement of neutron diffraction data allowed to improve the currently available model for site occupancies in the hexagonal η-phase in the binary Cu-Sn as well as in ternary alloys. For the first time, structural data is reported in the ternary Cu-Sn-In η-phase as a function of composition, information that is of fundamental technological importance as well as valuable input data for ongoing modelisations of the ternary phase diagram.

description: Over the past five decades in Siberia, archaeologists have not only searched for and excavated new monuments, but also developed new approaches to previously studied archaeological sites – to mounds, calculations, settlements, stone sculptures and petroglyphs. At this time, new types of ancient objects were discovered on the Sayano-Altai mountains – sanctuaries, megaliths, observation astropoints and a giant "zooanthropomorphic sculpture". Sacred features at archaeological sites and sanctuaries can be identified by studying: 1) the surrounding landscape; 2) orientation and marking of sacred objects and paths to them; 3) pictorial images on stones, rocks, objects (main and secondary compositions); 4) the most revered objects are altars, bonfires, images, structures made of stones and steles, water springs, mountain peaks, important for understanding the main purpose of the ancient sanctuary; 5) ancient knowledge of astronomy, mathematics, geometry, embedded in large and small objects. An integral approach allows you to combine ancient knowledge into a single whole.

description: We propose an experiment that realizes a symmetric informationally complete (SIC) probability-operator measurement (POM) in the four-dimensional Hilbert space of a qubit pair. The qubit pair is carried by a single photon as a polarization qubit and a path qubit. The implementation of the SIC POM is accomplished with the means of linear optics. The experimental scheme exploits a new approach to SIC POMs that uses a two-step process: a measurement with full-rank outcomes, followed by a projective measurement on a basis that is chosen in accordance with the result of the first measurement. The basis of the first measurement and the four bases of the second measurements are pairwise unbiased --- a hint at a possibly profound link between SIC POMs and mutually unbiased bases.
