title: Mothers' Roots Curriculum Project
Creators: name: Gobert, Sonya
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2017

description:
Since time immemorial, Indigenous mothers have taught their children how to survive in Indigenous way of being. When we remind our daughters of the strength, and the generations of resiliency and self-love before them, is when we will see real change. The truth is, when we teach our children their identity, we are giving them the tools to restore and rebuild their roots. These children are then the seeds which will be planted with the promise to grow in the awareness of true sovereignty, nationhood, and self-empowerment steeped in Indigenous truth which will ultimately trickle down in their own parenting and within the future generations of our peoples.

The Mother’s roots curriculum was written by a Blackfeet mother of five daughters and knows that it is the responsibility of the mother to teach her children the ways of her grandmothers. A young Blackfeet mother of five daughters had a dream she was out on the Two Medicine Buffalo Jumps on the Blackfeet reservation with her sister Elisha. They were looking for arrowheads scattered amongst old buffalo bones. The young mother looked down on the ground and spotted a red bead lying amongst the scattered buffalo bones. It was an old, old, old red bead that was a dried berry.

Because of this dream, I created a lesson titled “The Red Bead” and this is where the Blackfeet mother will start her journey in renewing her roots and teaching her children the ways of her grandmothers. Mothers’ roots is a curriculum framework that is intended to help Indigenous mothers renew their roots and teach children the ways of their grandmothers.

In this curriculum guide, you will find a summary of each lesson attached to each unit. Then you will find a set of three lesson plans that correspond with the four units in the Mothers’ roots. Included is a template of the Structure of the lessons that can be tailored to the needs of your Indigenous Mothers. This curriculum was designed as a framework for Indigenous mothers throughout the world to tailor to the needs of their mothers and children.

Radial velocities and metallicities from infrared Ca II triplet spectroscopy of open clusters: Berkeley 26, Berkeley 70, NGC 1798, and NGC 2266

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Context: Open clusters are ideal test particles for studying the formation and evolution of the Galactic disk. However, the number of clusters with information about their radial velocities and chemical compositions remains largely insufficient. Aims: We attempt to increase the number of open clusters with determinations of radial velocities and metallicities from spectroscopy. Methods: We acquired medium-resolution spectra (R~8000) in the region of the infrared Ca II triplet lines (~8500Å) for several stars in four open clusters with the long-slit spectrograph IDS at the 2.5m Isaac Newton Telescope, Roque de los Muchachos Observatory, Spain. Radial velocities were obtained by cross-correlating the observed spectra with those of two template stars. We used the relationships available in the literature between the strength of infrared Ca II lines and metallicities to derive the metal content of each cluster. Results: We provide the first spectroscopic determinations of radial velocities and metallicities for the open clusters Berkeley 26, Berkeley 70, NGC 1798, and NGC 2266. We obtain =68$\pm$12, -15$\pm$7, 2$\pm$10, and -16$\pm$15 km s$^{-1}$ for Berkeley 26, Berkeley 70, NGC 1798, and NGC 2266, respectively. For Berkeley 26 we derive a metallicity of [Fe/H]=-0.35$\pm$0.17 dex. Berkeley 70 has a solar metallicity of [Fe/H]=-0.01$\pm$0.14 dex, while NGC 1798 has a slightly lower metal content of [Fe/H]=-0.12$\pm$0.07 dex. Finally, we derive a metallicity of [Fe/H]=-0.38$\pm$0.06 dex for NGC 2266.

Pseudogap in cuprate and organic superconductors

description: We study the pseudogap present in cuprate and organic superconductors. We use the dynamical cluster approximation (DCA), treating a cluster embedded in a bath. As the Coulomb interaction is increased, cluster-bath Kondo states are destroyed and bound cluster states formed. We show that this leads to a pseudogap. Due to weaker coupling to the bath for the anti-nodal point, this happens first for this point, explaining the k-dependence of the pseudogap. The pseudogap can be understood in terms of preformed d-wave pairs, but it does not prove the existence of such pairs.

Nanomaterials for Solar Distillation Technology
Creators: name: Cheney, Jack Warren Stoddard
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2016

description: Water is the most important resource for mankind. Yet, 97% of the earth's surface water is seawater in the oceans and only 3% is fresh water in ground water. Therefore, different kinds of water desalination and treatment technologies have been developed, and water distillation is a basic process of evaporating water in order to leave behind impurities such as minerals, pollutants, and other contaminants. Although distillation is known as an effective water treatment process that removes many kinds of bacteria and inorganic chemicals and heavy metals, a large amount of conventional energy and non-renewable resources are consumed for this process. The objective of this thesis is to develop water distillation technology that uses plentiful and free solar energy by utilizing different functional nanomaterials. Double layered functional materials (exfoliated graphite and carbon foam) were used for sunlight absorption and heat localization which enable significantly improved water evaporation efficiency. A test chamber was built for heat loss minimization through the side surfaces and an indoor cost-effective solar simulator was designed to generate similar incident lights of solar irradiation using FRED simulation to verify the results. This indoor solar simulator allowed to perform consistent and reliable tests. The double layered materials were characterized using electron microscopes and various material analysis. The performance of the developed system was examined by measuring the temperature profile of the bulk water and the mass of evaporated water. The purified water produced by the developed distillation system was examined using two different analysis methods. The double layered functional materials localize heat within top layer and it led to enhance the evaporation rate by a factor of five (5) under one (1) sun irradiation. The heat localization was also demonstrated using a heat transfer simulation. Although a further water quality study needs to be carried out, it was demonstrated that the developed system can be promising in a next generation solar distillation process.

The Validation and Verification of LES Modeling Using KIVA
Creators: name: Fyda, David
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2016

description: In recent years, the use of large-eddy simulation (LES) has grown into new research methods. LES is preferred when compared to Reynold's Averaged Navier Stokes (RANS), which separates velocity components into steady and fluctuating components. While RANS is relatively easy to implement, it does not fully resolve the range of turbulence eddies and has limitations that make it inaccurate in many practical circumstances. Direct numerical simulation, DNS, fully resolves all turbulent eddies to the smallest grid scale, but requires an extremely fine grid. This makes it computationally impractical to use as the computational power required to solve even the simplest case is severely high. In LES, the large eddies are resolved while the small eddies are modelled. This can be advantageous as we lower the computational resources required for solving the flow while still maintaining accuracy.
The use of RANS as well as DNS make them highly difficult in solving issues involving combustion processes. LES models tend to be simpler and require fewer adjustments when applied to a wide range of flows. In addition to turbulence, LES can also handle species transport and chemical reactions typically found in engine configurations, and makes it a very suitable choice.
LES has many different approaches, including the popular Smagorinsky model. The main problem with the elementary Smargoinsky approach is that a model parameter, ????, is assumed constant over the entire region, which is generally not true for turbulent flows. Making the model dynamic to localize the parameter, we still have problems of the parameter varying too much (as much as ten times the mean) and the eddy viscosity becoming negative, resulting in instability. The Vreman LES model, as employed in this work, performs as well if not better than the dynamic Smagorinsky model, and does not require ad hoc procedures, including issues involving clipping. In this study, the LES Vreman model with a finite element method with h-adaptation technique is verified and validated using several benchmark cases. The end result being part of an on-going effort to enhance combustion predictability and increase efficiencies within engines.

2D atom localization in a four-level tripod system in laser fields

description: We propose a scheme for two-dimensional (2D) atom localization in a four-level tripod system under an influence of two orthogonal standing-wave fields. Position information of the atom is retained in the atomic internal states by an additional probe field either of a standing or of a running wave. It is shown that the localization factors depend crucially on the atom-field coupling that results in such spatial structures of populations as spikes, craters and waves. We demonstrate a high-precision localization due to measurement of population in the upper state or in any ground state.

We prove that some families of free Meixner distributions can be characterized by the conditional moments of polynomial functions of degree 3. We also show that this fact has consequences in describing some free Levy processes. The proof relies on a combinatorial identity. At the end of this paper we show that this result can be extended to a q-Gausian variable.

description: Antiferromagnetic spin rings represent prototypical realizations of highly correlated, low-dimensional systems. Here we theoretically show how the introduction of magnetic defects by controlled chemical substitutions results in a strong spatial modulation of spin-pair entanglement within each ring. Entanglement between local degrees of freedom (individual spins) and collective ones (total ring spins) are shown to coexist in exchange-coupled ring dimers, as can be deduced from general symmetry arguments. We verify the persistence of these features at finite temperatures, and discuss them in terms of experimentally accessible observables.

description: On the basis of pertubative QCD and the relativistic quark model we calculate relativistic corrections to the process of pair $J/ψ$ production in proton-proton collisions at LHC energy $\sqrt S=7$ TeV. Relativistic terms in the production amplitude connected with the relative motion of heavy quarks and the transformation law of the bound state wave functions to the reference frame of moving $J/ψ$ mesons are taken into account. For the gluon and quark propagators entering the amplitude we use a truncated expansion in relative quark momenta up to the second order. Relativistic corrections to the quark bound state wave functions are considered by means of the Breit-like potential. It turns out that the examined effects decrease initial nonrelativistic cross section more than two times. The final result lies below the experimental value measured by LHCb.

description: We investigate the detection efficiency of a spiral layout of a Superconducting Nanowire Single-Photon Detector (SNSPD). The design is less susceptible to the critical current reduction in sharp turns of the nanowire than the conventional meander design. Detector samples with different nanowire width from 300 to 100 nm are patterned from a 4 nm thick NbN film deposited on sapphire substrates. The critical current IC at 4.2 K for spiral, meander, and simple bridge structures is measured and compared. On the 100 nm wide samples, the detection efficiency is measured in the wavelength range 400-1700 nm and the cut-off wavelength of the hot-spot plateau is determined. In the optical range, the spiral detector reaches a detection efficiency of 27.6%, which is ~1.5 times the value of the meander. In the infrared range the detection efficiency is more than doubled.

title: Holocene Fault Reactivation and Landscape Evolution in the Eastern Cascades, WA
Creators: name: Carlson, Benjamin M.
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2017

description:
Significant uncertainty remains in how and where modest, distributed shortening is accommodated throughout the eastern Cascade Range in Washington State. Using lidar imagery, I identified a ~5 km long lineament in Swakane Canyon near Wenatchee, roughly coincident with a strand of the Entiat fault. Topographic profiles show the lineament is formed by a southwest-side-up break in slope with between 2 and 42 m of vertical separation of the ground surface. Trenching reveals deformed saprolite and colluvium consistent with southwest-side-up folding caused by blind reverse faulting at depth. Radiocarbon and luminescence dating combined with stratigraphic constraints suggest up to three Holocene earthquakes on the southern Entiat fault with an average vertical separation of ~0.7 m per event. A ground penetrating radar survey reveals up to 3.8 m of cumulative vertical separation of the basal trench unit, consistent with up to six earthquakes on this structure. Rupture of the 5 km fault segment in Swakane Canyon could produce an earthquake of M5.9 or M6.8 based on rupture length or average slip, respectively. Holocene earthquakes on the southern Entiat fault could suggest reactivation of the entire Entiat fault as well as other bedrock faults in the eastern Cascades. Low rates of strain accumulation, as indicated by GPS surface velocities, likely result in long earthquake recurrence intervals. Although active erosion and slow strain rates lead to a subdued geomorphic expression of recent deformation, this study shows that the Entiat fault is an active, seismogenic structure that should be considered in regional seismic hazard analyses.
Inception and propagation of positive streamers in high-purity nitrogen: effects of the voltage rise-rate

description: Controlling streamer morphology is important for numerous applications. Up to now, the effect of the voltage rise rate was only studied across a wide range. Here we show that even slight variations in the voltage rise can have significant effects. We have studied positive streamer discharges in a 16 cm point-plane gap in high-purity nitrogen 6.0, created by 25 kV pulses with a duration of 130 ns. The voltage rise varies by a rise rate from 1.9 kV/ns to 2.7 kV/ns and by the first peak voltage of 22 to 28 kV. A structural link is found between smaller discharges with a larger inception cloud caused by a faster rising voltage. This relation is explained by the greater stability of the inception cloud due to a faster voltage rise, causing a delay in the destabilisation. Time-resolved measurements show that the inception cloud propagates slower than an earlier destabilised, more filamentary discharge. This explains that the discharge with a faster rising voltage pulse ends up to be shorter. Furthermore, the effect of remaining background ionisation in a pulse sequence has been studied, showing that channel thickness and branching rate are locally affected, depending on the covered volume of the previous discharge.

Topological pi Josephson junction in superconducting Rashba wires

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: In this work we show that Rashba-based topological superconductor nanowires, where the spin-orbit coupling may change its sign, support three topological phases protected by chiral symmetry. When a superconducting phase gradient is applied over the interface of the two nontrivial phases, the Andreev spectrum is qualitatively phase shifted by πcompared to usual Majorana weak links. The topological π-junction has the striking property of exhibiting maximum supercurrent in the vicinity of vanishing phase difference. Qualitative features of the junction are robust against disorder and magnetic fields violating chiral symmetry. The studied system could be realized by local gating of the wire or by an appropriate stacking of permanent magnets in synthetic Rashba systems.

title: Seismicity and Velocity Structure of Offshore Hawai`i, including Lo`ihi Submarine Volcano
Creators: name: Merz, Dara K.
Publisher: name: Western Washington University
Year: 2017

description:
This study presents the earthquake data collected from a nine month deployment (September 2010 - June 2011) of a temporary ocean bottom seismometer (OBS) network fully surrounding Lo‘ihi submarine volcano, Hawai‘i. This allowed us to widen the aperture of earthquake detection around the Big Island, lower the magnitude detection threshold, and better constrain the hypocentral depths of offshore seismicity that occurs between the OBS network and the Hawaiian Volcano Observatory (HVO) land based network. Although this deployment occurred during a time of volcanic quiescence for Lo‘ihi, it establishes an important basis for background seismicity of the volcano. 463 earthquakes were located using the OBS network, incorporating data from the HVO network where possible. Here we present relocated hypocenters using the double-difference earthquake location algorithm HypoDD (Waldhauser and Ellsworth, 2000), as well as tomographic images for an area 80x80 km2 around the summit of Lo‘ihi. Offshore seismicity during this study is punctuated by events locating in the mantle fault zone 25-40 km deep. These events reflect rupture on preexisting faults in the lower lithosphere caused by stresses induced by volcano loading and flexure of the Pacific Plate (Wolfe, et al., 2004; Pritchard et al., 2007). A shallow cluster of highly-correlated events was located on the western boundary fault of Kilauea’s mobile south flank. Tomography was performed using the double-difference seismic tomography method TomoDD (Zhang and Thurber, 2003) and showed overall velocities to be slower than the regional velocity model (HG50; Klein, 1981) in the shallow lithosphere above 16 km depth. A broad, low-velocity anomaly was observed from 20-40 km deep, and is suggestive of the central plume conduit that supplies magma to the active volcanoes. A localized high-velocity body is observed 4-6 km deep beneath Lo‘ihi’s summit, extending 10 km to the North and South. Following Lo‘ihis active rift zones and crossing the summit, this high-velocity body is characteristic of dense basaltic dikes and magma cumulates. Two low-velocity anomalies are observed below the oceanic crust, interpreted as melt accumulation beneath Lo‘ihi and magmatic underplating beneath Hawai‘i Island.

description: Automated vehicles offer the opportunity to disengage from the driving task, though in SAE Level 3 vehicles a Take-Over Request (TOR) can occur at any time. In this case, the driver must quickly assess the situation and completely take over the driving task. In order for the driver to be able to do this safely, the rapid development of sufficient situational awareness is of particular importance. To investigate how this can be supported, it is necessary to find a sufficiently accurate method for measuring situational awareness in the context of automated driving. The Situation Awareness Global Assessment Technique (SAGAT) provides an objective, direct method for measuring all three levels of situation awareness. However, in previous applications of the method, the relevance of the information measured by the SAGAT method was not taken into account. The aim of this paper is therefore to first identify suitable SAGAT questions by means of a literature review and then to assess the relevance of the information asked for the safe takeover of vehicle control by an online questionnaire (n = 78). Subsequently, a study in a driving simulator (n = 32) will test whether a weighted evaluation of the SAGAT questions according to the classification by the online questionnaire can further optimize the method for measuring situation awareness.

title: More Than Faith: Latter-Day Saint Women as Politically Aware and Active Americans, 1830-1860

description:
I explore the political ideology and activity of female members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints from 1830 to 1860. Looking at personal sources such as diaries, letters, and poetry, this study posits Mormon women as intellectually active, politically engaged, and culturally aware in addition to religiously devout. This thesis first examines the ways in which early LDS women exhibited Democratic political ideology in the ways in which they viewed themselves and the ways in which they viewed the world around them. Looking at concepts such as “common woman” ideology, producerism, freedom rhetoric, Mormon-American exceptionalism, and Manifest Destiny within Mormon women’s personal writings, I demonstrate that many of these women joined countless other antebellum Americans in their embrace of Jacksonian political ideology. Finally, I explore early Mormon women’s political activity through Relief Society meetings, petitions, and patriotic celebrations, demonstrating that these women often prized democratic rhetoric while endorsing cultural and intellectual conformism to broader LDS policies and norms. By proposing that the Latter-Day Saint foremothers engaged in political thought and action in similar ways as LDS men and non-LDS Democrats, this thesis challenges historical views of Mormon women and the early LDS Church.

description: Aims. We carried out a radial-velocity survey to search for planets around metal-poor stars. In this paper we report the discovery of two planets around HIP 11952, a metal-poor star with [Fe/H]= -1.9 that belongs to our target sample. Methods. Radial velocity variations of HIP 11952 were monitored systematically with FEROS at the 2.2 m telescope located at the ESO La Silla observatory from August 2009 until January 2011. We used a cross-correlation technique to measure the stellar radial velocities (RV). Results. We detected a long-period RV variation of 290 d and a short-period one of 6.95 d. The spectroscopic analysis of the stellar activity reveals a stellar rotation period of 4.8 d. The Hipparcos photometry data shows intra-day variabilities, which give evidence for stellar pulsations. Based on our analysis, the observed RV variations are most likely caused by the presence of unseen planetary companions. Assuming a primary mass of 0.83 M\odot, we computed minimum planetary masses of 0.78 MJup for the inner and 2.93 MJup for the outer planet. The semi-major axes are a1 = 0.07 AU and a2 = 0.81 AU, respectively. Conclusions. HIP 11952 is one of very few stars with [Fe/H]< -1.0 which have planetary companions. This discovery is important to understand planet formation around metal-poor stars

description: This poster documents the changes observed in a Winogradsky column installed at the Concarneau Marine Station, Brittany, France. The column was made from mud taken from the ponds of the Concarneau marine station. Two thirds of the column was filled with mud and the last third was filled with seawater taken from the site. Carbon was added to the bottom of the column (small pieces of paper). The aim of the project is to show the incredible diversity of microorganisms. A parallel between the changes observed in the column and the early evolutionary history of life on earth is also proposed.
Cosmic-ray composition with TACTIC telescope using Fractal and Wavelet Analysis

description: A preliminary flux estimate of various cosmic-ray constituents based on the atmospheric Cerenkov light flux of extensive air showers using fractal and wavelet analysis approach is proposed. Using a Monte-Carlo simulated database of Cerenkov images recorded by the TACTIC telescope, we show that one of the wavelet parameters (wavelet dimension B6) provides ? 90% segregation of the simulated events in terms of the primary mass. We use these results to get a preliminary estimate of primary flux for various cosmic-ray primaries above 5 TeV energy. The simulation based flux estimates of the primary mass as recorded by the TACTIC telescope are in good agreement with the experimentally determined values.

Non-Local Patch Regression: Robust Image Denoising in Patch Space

description: It was recently demonstrated in [Chaudhury et al.,Non-Local Euclidean Medians,2012] that the denoising performance of Non-Local Means (NLM) can be improved at large noise levels by replacing the mean by the robust Euclidean median. Numerical experiments on synthetic and natural images showed that the latter consistently performed better than NLM beyond a certain noise level, and significantly so for images with sharp edges. The Euclidean mean and median can be put into a common regression (on the patch space) framework, in which the l_2 norm of the residuals is considered in the former, while the l_1 norm is considered in the latter. The natural question then is what happens if we consider l_p (0

title: Age-related changes in uptake and release of trace elements in marine microplastics
Creators: name: Porkert, Michaela
Publisher: name: TU Wien

subject: trace elements

description: Due to the growing demand and use of plastics, the disposal and waste of plastic products is getting more important. A greater amount of the discarded plastic ends up in the oceans. There it undergoes degradation processes, resulting in the formation of microplastics (MP). The particles get overgrown by microorganisms, ingested by marine life, and further enter the human food chain. MPs are under suspicion to release contained additives and adsorb trace elements from the ocean. In this thesis four different commonly used polymers were investigated. Polystyrene (PS), Polyamide (PA), Polyethylentherepthalate (PET) and Polyvinylidenchloride (PVDC). These samples were artificially aged by UV irradiation and oxidizing reagents. The changes caused by degradation were investigated with common methods, such as Raman and FTIR spectroscopy. Further the native and degraded polymers were treated with artificial seawater spiked with selected heavy metals such as Pb and Cd. To obtain quantitative bulk information of the age-related changes in uptake and release of inorganic species, microwave assisted digestion followed by liquid inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) analysis was carried out. Laser ablation ICP-MS (LA-ICP-MS) and laser induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) were used for qualitative spatially resolved analysis in solid MPs. Investigated were both the distribution of trace elements, and O as a marker for oxidation/degradation within individual particles. The aged PS samples clearly show an increased uptake of heavy metals such as Pb and increased release of additives containing Zn. PA showed leaching of additives with no noticeable change in molecular structure with ageing and did not show increased uptake for any of the elements examined. Especially in the depth profiles, PET showed the washing out of Sb in the edge areas of the particles. Further it showed an increased absorption of some added trace elements like Nd and Th. PVDC showed major changes due to artificial ageing, which was also reflected in an increased release of trace elements, which was particularly evident in the depth profiles whereas the increased adsorption of some elements seemed to be independent from ageing. The uptake and leaching behaviour is different for each trace element and each additive respectively. The measured depth profiles and images of the single MP particles showed various results depending on the polymer type and elements. Biggest changes were observed in surface near regions, whereas for others also the bulk composition was affected. Degradation was noticed only in the first 200 nm from surface by the change of oxygen content. It turned out that the combination of the results of bulk analysis and spatially resolved information is particularly valuable to be able to better assess the situation.
