description: This is a Maryland Inventory of Historic Properties Archeological Site Survey, Basic Data Report for the site T10, 18CH222. This site is located on the west side of Cedar Point Neck, c. 150m west of Blossom Point Road, about 1 mile north of the tip of Blossom Point. It lies on the east side of an old abandoned roadbed. Based on previously conducted research, site 18CH222 is the remains of a late 19th- to early 20th-century tenant house. Surface features present at the site include a series of brick and stone footers, construction debris or rubble, and a light artifact scatter. Fieldwork conducted at the site produced little information of interpretive value. This site was eliminated from testing in consultation with SHPO and ARL staff. A pedestrian walkover was conducted in 1998. Based on previously conducted research, Tetra Tech site visits (1998) prior to the start of fieldwork, and verbal discussions with Clara Bennett [ARL] and Beth Cole [MHT]), the site was identified as ineligible for listing on the NRHP. This conclusion is discussed in a memo dated 12 Oct 1998. The sites were identified as ineligible after the original SOW had already begun. No field or laboratory work was planned for these two sites. This decision was based on a lack of integrity (portions of the site have been bulldozed) and a lack of research potential. These sites are addressed in this report because at the time of the Scope of Work, they had been identified by the SHPO as requiring Phase II excavations.

description: The Poincare algebra of classical electrodynamics in one spatial dimension is studied using light-cone coordinates and ordinary Minkowski coordinates. We show that it is possible to quantize the theory by a canonical quantization procedure in a Poincare invariant manner on the light-cone. We also show that this is not possible when using ordinary coordinates. The physical reason of this anomaly is analysed.

description: Define a module representation to be a linear parameterisation of a collection of module homomorphisms over a ring. Generalising work of Knuth, we define duality functors indexed by the elements of the symmetric group of degree three between categories of module representations. We show that these functors have tame effects on average sizes of kernels. This provides a general framework for and a generalisation of duality phenomena previously observed in work of O'Brien and Voll and in the predecessor of the present article. We discuss applications to class numbers and conjugacy class zeta functions of $p$-groups and unipotent group schemes, respectively.

Combined effects of nuclear Coulomb field, radial flow, and opaqueness on two-pion correlations
Creators: name: Barz, H. W.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Correlations of two like charged pions emitted from a hot and charged spherically expanding nuclear system are investigated. The motion of the pions is described quantum mechanically using the Klein-Gordon equation which includes Coulomb field and pion absorption. Flow modifies the radial distribution of the source function and rescales the pion wave functions. The radii extracted from the correlation functions are calculated in sideward and outward direction as a function of the pair momentum. Comparison with recent measurements at SIS and AGS energies is made.

description: Analogue models for CP violation in neutral-meson systems are studied in a general framework. No-go results are obtained for models in classical mechanics that are nondissipative or that involve one-dimensional oscillators. A complete emulation is shown to be possible for a two-dimensional oscillator with rheonomic constraints, and an explicit example with spontaneous T and CPT violation is presented. The results have implications for analogue models with electrical circuits.

Nontrivial, Asymptotically Non-free Gauge Theories and Dynamical Unification of Couplings

description: An evidence for nontriviality of asymptotically non-free (ANF) Yang-Mills theories is found on the basis of optimized perturbation theory. It is argued that these theories with matter couplings can be made nontrivial by means of the reduction of couplings, leading to the idea of dynamical unification of couplings (DUC) The second-order reduction of couplings in the ANF $SU(3)$-gauged Higgs-Yukawa theory, which is assumed to be nontrivial here, is carried out to motivate independent investigations on its nontriviality and DUC.
Large unidirectional spin Hall and Rashba-Edelstein magnetoresistance in topological insulator/magnetic insulator heterostructures

description: Thanks to its unique symmetry, the unidirectional spin Hall and Rashba-Edelstein magnetoresistance (USRMR) is of great fundamental and practical interest, particularly in the context of reading magnetization states in two-terminal spin-orbit torque switching memory and logic devices. Recent studies show that topological insulators could improve USRMR amplitude. However, the topological insulator device configurations studied so far in this context, namely ferromagnetic metal/topological insulator bilayers and magnetically doped topological insulators, suffer from current shunting by the metallic layer and low Curie temperature, respectively. Here, we report large USRMR in a new material category - magnetic insulator/topological insulator bi-layered heterostructures. Such structures exhibit USRMR that is about an order of magnitude larger than the highest values reported so far in all-metal Ta/Co bilayers. We also demonstrate current-induced magnetization switching aided by an Oersted field, and electrical read out by the USRMR, as a prototype memory device.

description: We consider the $J/Ψ$ suppression at a high energy heavy ion collision. An ideal gas of massive hadrons in thermal and chemical equilibrium is formed in the central region. The finite-size gas expands longitudinally in accordance with Bjorken law. The transverse expansion in a form of the rarefaction wave is taken into account. We show that $J/Ψ$ suppression in such an environment, when combined with the disintegration in nuclear matter, gives correct evaluation of NA38 and NA50 data in a broad range of initial energy densities.

Conservative Replicator and Lotka-Volterra Equations in the context of Dirac$\backslash$ big-isotropic Structures

Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Dynamical Systems (math.DS)

description: We introduce an algorithm to find possible constants of motion for a given replicator equation. The algorithm is inspired by Dirac geometry and a Hamiltonian description for the replicator equations with such constants of motion, up to a time re-parametrization, is provided using Dirac$\backslash$big-isotropic structures. Using the equivalence between replicator and Lotka-Volterra (LV) equations, the set of conservative LV equations is enlarged. Our approach generalizes the well-known use of gauge transformations to skew-symmetrize the interaction matrix of a LV system. In the case of predator-prey model, our method does allow interaction between different predators and between different preys.

description: We analyze a basis-independent definition of quantum coherence. The maximally mixed state is used as the reference state, which allows for a way of defining coherence that is invariant under arbitrary unitary transformations. The basis-independent approach is applied to finding the distri- bution of the coherence within a multipartite system, where the contributions due to correlations between the subsystems and within each subsystem are isolated. The use of the square root of the Jensen-Shannon divergence allows for inequality relations to be derived between these quantities, giving a geometrical picture within the Hilbert space of the system. We describe the relationship between the basis-independent and the basis-dependent approaches, and argue that many advan- tages exist for the former method. The formalism is illustrated with several numerical examples which show that the states can be characterized in a simple and effective manner.

description: This is an abstract from the "SAA 2019: General Sessions" session, at the 84th annual meeting of the Society for American Archaeology. Ethnographic investigations into menstrual seclusion practices worldwide show that investigating these behaviors is not only fruitful, but also integral in understanding a community’s ideology and social structuring. Texts dating to the New Kingdom and Demotic periods suggest that ancient Egyptians engaged in a menstrual seclusion practice that included a strong spatial component within the household. This material manifestation of Egyptian menstrual seclusion opens the topic to archaeological inquiry that will compensate our textual understanding of the behavior. To that end, this paper analyzes the access, viewshed, and movement possibilities within 28 domestic structures at the New Kingdom site of Deir el-Medina (1550-1070 BCE). The aim of these investigations is to determine whether or not the architectural layout of the houses allows for the intentional segregation of women away from the rest of the household. The results of these analyses dispute the common notion that the houses at Deir el-Medina were too small to contain menstrual seclusion behaviors. Instead, the analysis finds that every house contained a space that could have been used opportunistically for seclusion while a woman was menstruating. Additionally, two houses contained rooms with unusually limited access that may have been used specifically to house menstruating individuals.

Analysing the role of the anterior visceral endoderm in anterior-posterior axis establishment in the mouse embryo
Creators: name: Stuckey, Daniel William
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2008

description: Anterior-posterior (A-P) axis specification requires signalling from a specialised extraembryonic tissue called the anterior visceral endoderm (AVE). AVE precursors are induced at the distal tip of the pre-gastrulating mammalian embryo and move to the prospective anterior. This movement is essential in correctly positioning the A-P axis. Firstly, the contribution of proliferation to AVE movements has been tested. Previous studies have suggested that differential proliferation within the visceral endoderm (VE) is required to determine its direction by passive displacement. High-resolution imaging and embryo culture experiments have been used to assess the distribution and requirements of proliferation during AVE movements. Differential proliferation was not observed along the A-P axis of the VE. However, proliferation within the epiblast was found to be required for correct AVE movements in a Nodal-dependant manner. Secondly, to address the function of the AVE in vivo, this tissue was genetically ablated. Diphtheria toxin A was knocked-in to the Hex locus (an early AVE marker) by homologous recombination in embryonic stem cells. Depending on the time of ablation the AVE or its precursors could be ablated as demonstrated by AVE marker analysis. Ablation of the AVE precursors prior to 5.5 dpc resulted in embryos that displayed greatly disturbed patterning and were unable to gastrulate. AVE ablation between 5.5-6.5 dpc resulted in delayed formation of the primitive streak, epithelial to mesenchymal transition defects and a mispatterning of the anterior primitive streak. A decrease in Nodal signalling was found to be a likely cause for the defects observed in these ablated embryos, indicating that AVE maintains Nodal signalling levels in the epiblast. Together these experiments find a role for epiblast proliferation in AVE migration and identify a novel role for the AVE in patterning the primitive streak. Therefore this investigation provides a critical insight into how the A-P axis is established in mammals.
Novel Ketone Catalysts for Asymmetric Epoxidation of Alkenes
Creators: name: Bettati, Michela
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2008

description: Chiral non-racemic ketones have been shown to be powerful promoters of asymmetric induction in epoxidation reactions with alkenes in the presence of Oxone®. However, the catalyst structural features are specific for the class of olefins used as substrates. Up to date, excellent results have been achieved for trans- and trisubstituted alkenes, while terminal alkenes still represent one of the most challenging areas. Much work needs to be done in developing suitable catalysts to lead to high enantioselectivities. Previous work in Armstrong’s group identified ketone catalysts based on oxabicyclo[3.2.1]octan-3-ones and on the N-carboethoxytropinone skeleton, which performed very well in enantioselective epoxidation of trans- substituted olefins (up to 93% ee for E-stilbene). This thesis describes the synthesis and the efficiency towards alkene epoxidations of novel α,α-disubstituted ketones based on the Ncarboethoxytropinone scaffold. In particular, encouraged by the positive results achieved by Shi’s group for terminal alkenes, several spiro-motifs α to the carbonyl have been investigated. A slight improvement was observed towards the challenging terminal olefins compared to the monosubstituted ketone analogues, whilst very high ee were maintained for trans- substituted alkenes. However, to our surprise, only minor changes in enantioselectivity were observed from modifications of the steric and electronic properties of this spiro-motif in the ketone catalyst. Further axial or equatorial α' functionalisation was explored as a possible strategy to increase enantioselectivity towards terminal and 1,1-disubstituted alkenes. Indeed, significant improvements were achieved in enantioselective epoxidation of styrene (up to 50% ee) and a-methyl styrene (up to 39% ee).

description: Gammon's interview begins with him describing his childhood and early engagement with the Congress of Racial Equality (CORE). He describes his parents, who came from Arkansas. Gammon attended a business college and entered the United States Air Force. After serving for three years and six months, Gammon left the service in 1958. Gammon recalls instances of job discrimination he experienced as a Black man upon returning to St. Louis. After receiving his certification as a nurse practitioner, Gammon worked as an operating room technician at the Barnes Hospital and the Jewish Hospital of St. Louis (Barnes-Jewish Hospital). Gammon describes his medical work and his work as a salesman, beginning 1964. Gammon describes the racial environment of St. Louis in the mid-sixties, including issues of segregation and black unemployment. As chairman of CORE's Employment Committee, Gammon describes organizing a boycott against Budweiser and Anheuser-Busch with help from Ron Dellums and Delores Alleyne. Gammon also recalls other boycotts and anti-war activism across St. Louis. Next, Gammon discusses a broad range of issues impacting the Black community of St. Louis at the time of the interview. Gammon mentions discrimination against Black patients in Barnes Hospital. Gammon describes CORE St. Louis in the 1990s and early 2000s, headed by Solomon Leroy Rooks. He recalls the actions of Percy Green, his brother-in-law, and Ivory Perry, a fellow CORE activist. Gammon speaks about his sister's death; meeting his wife, Evelyn, in CORE; and his annual walks around the Jefferson Bank with his granddaughter. Finally, Gammon muses on the Democratic Party, anti-miscegenation laws, the renewal of the Voting Rights Act of 1965, and the Founding Fathers
Nucleation and crystallisation of hafnium compounds and thin films
Creators: name: McVicar McGilvery, Catriona
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2008

description: Hafnia and hafnium silicate are leading high-κ materials to replace SiO2 in CMOS devices. In this thesis the results of a study of bulk powders and thin films of these materials are reported. Bulk powders were investigated to provide a greater understanding of the crystallisation process by which HfO2 and HfSiO4 are formed. Investigation using thermal analysis, xray diffraction and electron microscopy techniques revealed that starting materials, heating conditions and atmosphere significantly affected the crystallisation pathway. In particular three mechanisms for tetragonal hafnia (t-HfO2) stabilisation were identified: (1) oxygen vacancies; (2) the critical particle size effect; and (3) the surface energy effect. Electron energy-loss spectroscopy (EELS) was used to try to obtain a standard O K edge for t-HfO2 from the powders and to better understand experimental EELS spectra obtained from thin films. A standard t-HfO2 edge was not found and many of the spectra obtained did not match existing standard edge shapes. The local atomic environment has a large effect on the edge shape in these samples, leading to the conclusion that a ‘standard’ edge shape may be impossible to obtain. Combining the EELS spectra from bulk and thin film samples, with modelled data it was found that the atoms within ~6Å from the excited atom had the largest effect on the edge shape. Consequently EELS spectra taken at a distance from an interface greater than ~6Å will give a bulk-like signal. 20nm HfxSi1-xO2 thin films were also investigated using TEM having been subjected to different thermal anneals and deposition conditions. It was found that the electron beam caused significant growth of SiO2 layers due to oxygen diffusion, and crystallisation within the high-κ layer. Furthermore, the higher the SiO2 content in the sample the more crystallisation was inhibited, though segregation into HfO2 and SiO2 rich regions occurred in all samples. 3

A Multidisciplinary Study of Biomarkers in Hydrothermal Deposits: Applications to the Search for Life on Mars
Creators: name: Preston, Louisa Jane
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2008

description: Hydrothermal systems have been suggested as suitable environments for the appearance of life on the Early Earth and may provide habitats for microorganisms on Mars. The deposits created by these systems are preserved in the geological record. This research investigates the key mineralogical, textural and biological markers found in terrestrial hydrothermal deposits that can be used as analogues in the search for evidence of life on Mars. Samples of silica sinter from Iceland and New Zealand, the Rhynie Chert 396 Ma old deposit from Aberdeenshire and hydrothermally altered impactites from the Chicxulub impact crater have been analysed to understand the mineralogical properties unique to the different hydrothermal conditions and the evidence of extant or extinct microorganisms within them. Re-colonisation of basaltic substrates by hot spring-derived cultures was also carried out. This research was conducted using a multidisciplinary approach with the analytical techniques and instruments involved currently used for in-situ and orbital observations of planetary bodies. The principal techniques, Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and Gas Chromatography Mass Spectrometry (GCMS), were used due to their combined capabilities in the identification of a variety of rocks and minerals, and a wide range of organic compounds. This PhD research has shown that FTIR in particular is an exceptional analytical technique for use in astrobiological investigations. This research has characterised hydrothermal deposits of different ages and created by different processes on Earth to ascertain their potential for preserving organic compounds in similar deposits on Mars. Results indicate that siliceous hydrothermal deposits of recent and ancient formation yield biomolecular evidence for past and present microbial colonisation as do hydrothermally altered impact deposits and re-colonised basaltic substrates. The identification of mineralogical and biological information using FTIR reflectance spectroscopy has wide implications in the search for life on Mars and other planetary bodies.

description: The behaviour of the magnetic field inside the superconducting quark matter core of a neutron star is investigated in the framework of the Ginzburg-Landau theory. We take into account the simultaneous coupling of the diquark condensate field to the usual magnetic and to the gluomagnetic gauge fields. We solve the problem for three different physical situations: a semi-infinite region with a planar boundary, a spherical region, and a cylindrical region. We show that Meissner currents near the quark core boundary effectively screen the external static magnetic field.

description: The classical inverse first passage time problem asks whether, for a Brownian motion $(B_t)_{t\geq 0}$ and a positive random variable $ξ$, there exists a barrier $b:\mathbb{R}_+\to\mathbb{R}$ such that $\mathbb{P}\{B_s>b(s), 0\leq s \leq t\}=\mathbb{P}\{ξ>t\}$, for all $t\geq 0$. We study a variant of the inverse first passage time problem for killed Brownian motion. We show that if $λ>0$ is a killing rate parameter and $\mathbb{1}_{(-\infty,0]}$ is the indicator of the set $(-\infty,0]$ then, under certain compatibility assumptions, there exists a unique continuous function $b:\mathbb{R}_+\to\mathbb{R}$ such that $\mathbb{E}\left[-λ\int_0^t \mathbb{1}_{(-\infty,0]}(B_s-b(s))\,ds\right] = \mathbb{P}\{ζ>t\}$ holds for all $t\geq 0$. This is a significant improvement of a result of the first two authors (Annals of Applied Probability 24(1):1--33, 2014). The main difficulty arises because $\mathbb{1}_{(-\infty,0]}$ is discontinuous. We associate a semi-linear parabolic partial differential equation (PDE) coupled with an integral constraint to this version of the inverse first passage time problem. We prove the existence and uniqueness of weak solutions to this constrained PDE system. In addition, we use the recent Feynman-Kac representation results of Glau (Finance and Stochastics 20(4):1021--1059, 2016) to prove that the weak solutions give the correct probabilistic interpretation.

Phraseology in Corpus-Based Translation Studies: A Stylistic Study of Two Contemporary Chinese Translations of Cervantes's Don Quijote
Creators: name: Ji, Meng
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2009

description: The present work sets out to investigate the stylistic profiles of two modern Chinese versions of Cervantes’s Don Quijote (I): by Yang Jiang (1978), the first direct translation from Castilian to Chinese, and by Liu Jingsheng (1995), which is one of the most commercially successful versions of the Castilian literary classic. This thesis focuses on a detailed linguistic analysis carried out with the help of the latest textual analytical tools, natural language processing applications and statistical packages. The type of linguistic phenomenon singled out for study is four-character expressions (FCEXs), which are a very typical category of Chinese phraseology. The work opens with the creation of a descriptive framework for the annotation of linguistic data extracted from the parallel corpus of Don Quijote. Subsequently, the classified and extracted data are put through several statistical tests. The results of these tests prove to be very revealing regarding the different use of FCEXs in the two Chinese translations. The computational modelling of the linguistic data would seem to indicate that among other findings, while Liu’s use of archaic idioms has followed the general patterns of the original and also of Yang’s work in the first half of Don Quijote I, noticeable variations begin to emerge in the second half of Liu’s more recent version. Such an idiosyncratic use of archaisms by Liu, which may be defined as style shifting or style variation, is then analyzed in quantitative terms through the application of the proposed context-motivated theory (CMT). The results of applying the CMT-derived statistical models show that the detected stylistic variation may well point to the internal consistency of the translator in rendering the second half of Part I of the novel, which reflects his freer, more creative and experimental style of translation. Through the introduction and testing of quantitative research methods adapted from corpus linguistics and textual statistics, this thesis has made a major contribution to methodological innovation in the study of style within the context of corpus-based translation studies.

Development and use of bioanalytical instrumentation and signal analysis methods for rapid sampling microdialysis monitoring of neuro-intensive care patients
Creators: name: Feuerstein, Delphine
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2009

description: This thesis focuses on the development and use of analysis tools to monitor brain injury patients. For this purpose, an online amperometric analyzer of cerebral microdialysis samples for glucose and lactate has been developed and optimized within the Boutelle group. The initial aim of this thesis was to significantly improve the signal-to-noise ratio and limit of detection of the assay to allow reliable quantification of the analytical data. The first approach was to re-design the electronic instrumentation of the assay. Printed-circuit boards were fabricated and proved very low noise, stable and much smaller than the previous potentiostats. The second approach was to develop generic data processing algorithms to remove three complex types of noise that commonly contaminate analytical signals: spikes, non-stationary ripples and baseline drift. The general strategy consisted in identifying the types of noise, characterising them, and subsequently subtracting them from the otherwise unprocessed data set. Spikes were effectively removed with 96.8% success and ripples were removed with minimal distortion of the signal resulting in an increased signal-to-noise ratio by up to 250%. This allowed reliable quantification of traces from ten patients monitored with the online microdialysis assay. Ninety-six spontaneous metabolic events in response to spreading depolarizations were resolved. These were characterized by a fall in glucose by -32.0 μM and a rise in lactate by +23.1 μM (median values) for over a 20-minute time-period. With frequently repeating events, this led to a progressive depletion of brain glucose. Finally, to improve the temporal coupling between the metabolic data and the electro-cortical signals, a flow-cell was engineered to integrate a potassium selective electrode into the microdialysate flow stream. With good stability over hours of continuous use and a 90% response time of 65 seconds, this flow cell was used for preliminary in vivo experiments the Max Planck Institute in Cologne.

description: A cosmological model describing the evolution of n Ricci-flat spaces (n>1) in the presence of 1-component perfect-fluid and minimally coupled scalar field is considered. When the pressures in all spaces are proportional to the density, the Einstein and Wheeler-DeWitt equations are integrated for a large variety of parameters. Classical and quantum wormhole solutions are obtained for negative density. Some special classes of solutions, e.g. solutions with spontaneous and dynamical compactification, exponential and power-law inflations, are singled out. For positive density a third quantized cosmological model is considered and the Planckian spectrum of ``created universes'' is obtained.

Evaluation of pulse wave analysis to assess coronary artery disease
Creators: name: Kotecha, Dipak
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2010

description: Conventional risk factors for cardiovascular disease, such as age, gender, hyperlipidaemia and hypertension are useful clinical markers of coronary artery disease (CAD) in asymptomatic patients or those without a prior history of atherosclerosis. In patients referred for a cardiology opinion, modification of risk factors by lifestyle changes and cardiac medications as well as confounding co-morbidities limit the value of these markers. Patients are often referred for diagnostic coronary angiography to determine the presence and severity of CAD, stratify the risk of future events and determine appropriate management. Despite the use of a variety of tests to best identify those requiring angiography, up to half of all patients referred do not have significant disease. Pulse wave analysis (PWA) is a novel method to derive indices of central (aortic) blood pressure and arterial stiffness. Pressure waveforms are obtained non-invasively from the radial artery using a simple tonometry method and have been shown to correlate with clinical outcomes and cardiovascular events in selected populations. This thesis will explore, for the first time, the clinical potential for PWA as a non-invasive marker of CAD in an unselected contemporary cohort of patients referred for elective coronary angiography. The main hypotheses tested are first that PWA is a suitable tool for clinical use, including those with cardiac and non-cardiac co-morbidities and second that abnormalities of PWA are independent predictors of the presence and severity of CAD. Data have been derived from a prospective, protocol-driven, multi-centre cohort of 550 patients recruited from 2006-8. Results suggest that PWA has a useful clinical role in stratifying the risk of coronary disease. PWA variables were independent of conventional blood pressure measurement and superior to baseline risk factors, biomarkers and other non-invasive tests.
