description: The purpose of this research is to provide the outline dimensions for one class of artifacts, French gunflints and the closely related strike-a-lights. Documentary sources are assembled in order to provide sufficient controls for experimental replication of fireflints which could lead to classification. Gunflints represent a unique situation, because they were a reapplication of ancient fire and steel techniques for the ignition of firearms. With antecedents in prehistoric times, fireflints became critical munitions items during the flintlock era, in addition to domestic fire production. With the coming of the industrial age, gunflints retained their importance by switching to worldwide colonial markets during the later 19th and early 20th centuries. In effect a fragmentary ''time capsulen has been preserved concerning the working of lithic materials . The economic history of French gunflint making can only be presented in outline form, because of the difficulties in obtaining information. Fortunately, the tools and manufacturing processes can be compared and contrasted, including available information for other “recent" flintworking. It is hoped that this paper can be useful for creating replicated decision model types for future experimentation relating to Bonnichsen's (1973) 5 overlapping levels of input and output attributes.
On the Observed W_MgII--L_[OII] Correlation in SDSS QSO Spectra

description: This paper investigates the effect of differential aperture loss with SDSS fibers and examines whether such selection bias would result in the observed correlation between rest-frame absorption equivalent width of MgII absorbers, Wr(2796), and mean associated [OII] luminosity, L_[OII], in SDSS QSO spectra. We demonstrate based on a Monte Carlo simulation that the observed Wr(2796) vs. L_[OII] correlation of MgII absorbers can be well-reproduced, if all galaxies found in deep surveys possess extended MgII halos and if the extent of MgII halos scales proportionally with galaxy mass as shown in previous studies. The observed correlation can be explained by a combination of (1) the known Wr(2796) vs. rho anti-correlation in galaxy and MgII absorber pairs and (2) an increasing aperture loss in the 3" diameter SDSS fiber for galaxies at larger rho. Galaxies at larger projected distances produce on average weaker MgII absorbers and weaker (or zero) L_[OII] in SDSS QSO spectra. We show that such correlation diminishes when larger fibers are adopted and is therefore not physical. While under a simple halo model the majority of MgII absorbers do not directly probe star-forming disks, they trace photo-ionized halo gas associated with galaxies. We show that because of the scaling relation between extended gas cross-section and galaxy mass, the number density evolution of the MgII absorber population as a whole provides a good measure of the cosmic star formation history.

description: We theoretically study the current-induced dynamics of a transverse magnetic domain wall in bi-layer nanowires consisting of a ferromagnet on top of a nonmagnet having strong spin-orbit coupling. Domain wall dynamics is characterized by two threshold current densities, $J_{th}^{WB}$ and $J_{th}^{REV}$, where $J_{th}^{WB}$ is a threshold for the chirality switching of the domain wall and $J_{th}^{REV}$ is another threshold for the reversed domain wall motion caused by spin Hall effect. Domain walls with a certain chirality may move opposite to the electron-flow direction with high speed in the current range $J_{th}^{REV} < J < J_{th}^{WB}$ for the system designed to satisfy the conditions $J_{th}^{WB} > J_{th}^{REV}$ and α> β, where αis the Gilbert damping constant and βis the nonadiabaticity of spin torque. Micromagnetic simulations confirm the validity of analytical results.

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

description: We attempt to model Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) evolution from the initial Heavy Ion collision to the final hadronic gas state by combining the Glauber model initial state conditions with eccentricity fluctuations, pre-equilibrium flow, UVH2+1 viscous hydrodynamics with lattice QCD Equation of State (EoS), a modified Cooper-Frye freeze-out and the UrQMD hadronic cascade. We then evaluate the model parameters using a comprehensive analytical framework which together with the described model we call CHIMERA. Within our framework, the initial state parameters, such as the initial temperature (T$_{\mathrm{init}}$), presence or absence of initial flow, viscosity over entropy density ($η$/s) and different Equations of State (EoS), are varied and then compared simultaneously to several experimental data observables: HBT radii, particle spectra and particle flow. $χ^2$/nds values from comparison to the experimental data for each set of initial parameters will then used to find the optimal description of the QGP with parameters that are difficult to obtain experimentally, but are crucial to understanding of the matter produced.

Forensic Analysis of the Venezuelan Recall Referendum

Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Methodology (stat.ME)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: The best way to reconcile political actors in a controversial electoral process is a full audit. When this is not possible, statistical tools may be useful for measuring the likelihood of the results. The Venezuelan recall referendum (2004) provides a suitable dataset for thinking about this important problem. The cost of errors in examining an allegation of electoral fraud can be enormous. They can range from legitimizing an unfair election to supporting an unfounded accusation, with serious political implications. For this reason, we must be very selective about data, hypotheses and test statistics that will be used. This article offers a critical review of recent statistical literature on the Venezuelan referendum. In addition, we propose a testing methodology, based exclusively on vote counting, that is potentially useful in election forensics. The referendum is reexamined, offering new and intriguing aspects to previous analyses. The main conclusion is that there were a significant number of irregularities in the vote counting that introduced a bias in favor of the winning option. A plausible scenario in which the irregularities could overturn the results is also discussed.

description: Bibliography: p. 64-66.
description: This thesis is an exploratory inquiry designed to study political attitudes of junior-high school students. Particular attention is paid to the variables of political efficacy, political cynicism, and politicization. Because of the schism in our country today between Anglophone and Francophone, attitudes toward French-Canada are investigated. Attitudes toward the U. S. are examined, in view of our proximity to that country and our deep involvement in culture and trade. Particularly interesting are the findings concerning which attitudes can be measured and which ones prove elusive at this age level. The author recognizes the validity of Hess and Torney's belief that understanding political phenomena is directly related to cognitive development.

Period and glitch reduction via clock skew scheduling, delay padding and glitchless
Creators: name: Dong, Xiao
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This thesis describes PGR, an architectural technique to reduce dynamic power via a glitch reduction strategy named GlitchLess, or to improve performance via clock skew scheduling (CSS) and delay padding (DP). It is integrated into VPR 5.0, and is invoked after the routing stage. Programmable delay elements (PDEs) are used as a novel architecture modification to insert delay on fiip- flop (FF) clock inputs, enabling all optimization steps to share it, avoiding multiple architecture modifications. This thesis investigates the trade- off between power and performance, and finding an appropriate compromise considering process variation and timing uncertainties. To facilitate realistic power estimates, a popular activity estimator, ACE, is modified with a new model to estimate glitching power, taking into account the analog behavior of glitch pulse width reduction as it travels along FPGA routing tracks. We show that the original glitch estimation method can underestimate glitching power by up to 48%, and overestimate by up to 15%. In terms of performance, an average of 15% speedup can be achieved via CSS alone, or up to 37% for individual circuits. Although delay padding only benefits a few circuits, the average improvement of those circuits is an additional 10% of the original period, or up to 23% for individual circuits. In addition, GlitchLess is performed on both the original VPR and post-CSS solutions. On average, 16% of glitching power can be eliminated, or up to 63% for individual circuits.

Probing the Star Formation History and Initial Mass Function of the z~2.5 Lensed Galaxy SMM J163554.2+661225 with Herschel

description: We present the analysis of Herschel SPIRE far-infrared (FIR) observations of the z = 2.515 lensed galaxy SMM J163554.2+661225. Combining new 250, 350, and 500 micron observations with existing data, we make an improved fit to the FIR spectral energy distribution (SED) of this galaxy. We find a total infrared (IR) luminosity of L(8--1000 micron) = 6.9 +/- 0.6x10^11 Lsol; a factor of 3 more precise over previous L_IR estimates for this galaxy, and one of the most accurate measurements for any galaxy at these redshifts. This FIR luminosity implies an unlensed star formation rate (SFR) for this galaxy of 119 +/- 10 Msol per yr, which is a factor of 1.9 +/- 0.35 lower than the SFR derived from the nebular Pa-alpha emission line (a 2.5-sigma discrepancy). Both SFR indicators assume identical Salpeter initial mass functions (IMF) with slope Gamma=2.35 over a mass range of 0.1 - 100 Msol, thus this discrepancy suggests that more ionizing photons may be necessary to account for the higher Pa-alpha-derived SFR. We examine a number of scenarios and find that the observations can be explained with a varying star formation history (SFH) due to an increasing star formation rate (SFR), paired with a slight flattening of the IMF. If the SFR is constant in time, then larger changes need to be made to the IMF by either increasing the upper-mass cutoff to ~ 200 Msol, or a flattening of the IMF slope to 1.9 +/- 0.15, or a combination of the two. These scenarios result in up to double the number of stars with masses above 20 Msol, which produce the requisite increase in ionizing photons over a Salpeter IMF with a constant SFH.

description: Forward transition radiation is considered in an ultrasonic superlattice excited in a finite thickness plate under oblique incidence of relativistic electrons. We investigate the influence of acoustic waves on both the intensity and polarization of the radiation. In the quasi-classical approximation, formulas are derived for the vector potential of the electromagnetic field and for the spectral-angular distribution of the radiation intensity. It is shown that the acoustic waves generate new resonance peaks in the spectral and angular distributions. The heights and the location of the peaks can be controlled by choosing the parameters of the acoustic wave. The numerical examples are given for a plate of fused quartz.

We also review the description of canonical GR as a geodesic principle on the space of connections, and comment on the existence of a time variable which could be used in the interpretation of the quantum theory.

description: Astrometry using H2O maser sources in star forming regions is expected to be a powerful tool to study the structures and dynamics of our Galaxy. Honma et al. (2007) (hereafter H2007) claimed that the annual parallax of S269 is determined within an error of 0.008 milliarcsec (mas), concluding that S269 is located at 5.3 kpc +- 0.2 kpc from the sun, and R= 13.1 kpc. They claimed that the rotational velocity of S269 is equal to that of the sun within a 3% error. This small error, however, is hardly understood when taking into account the results of other observations and theoretical studies of galactic dynamics. We here reanalyzed the VERA archival data using the self-calibration method (hybrid mapping), and found that clusters of maser features of S269 are distributed in much wider area than that investigated in H2007. We confirmed that, if we make a narrow region image without considering the presence of multiple maser spots, and only the phase calibration is applied, we can reproduce the same maser structures in H2007. The distribution extent of maser spots in the feature differs 0.2 mas from east to west between our results and H2007. Moreover, we found that change of relative positions of maser spots in the cluster reaches 0.1 mas or larger between observational epochs. This suggests that if one simply assumes the time-dependent, widely distributed maser sources as a stable single point source, it could cause errors of up to 0.1 mas in the annual parallax of S269. Taking into account the internal motions of maser spot clusters, the proper motion of S269 cannot be determined precisely. We estimated that the peculiar motion of S269 with respect to a Galactic circular rotation is ~20 km/s. These results imply that the observed kinematics of maser emissions in S269 cannot give a strong constraint on dynamics of the outer part of the Galaxy, in contrast to the claim by H2007.

Direct and indirect effects of host plant selection on larval performance in the cabbage looper, Trichoplusia ni
Creators: name: Shikano, Ikkei
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Generalist insects should possess the ability to rank potential host plants for the suitability of their offspring. The decision to oviposit on a host plant that is inferior for larval development could have significant consequences for their offspring. Host plant quality can affect larval development and survival directly via nutrients and/or defensive chemicals, as well as indirectly by influencing larval condition and consequently their susceptibility to pathogens. In this thesis I examine the relationship between host preference and plant quality for larval performance in the cabbage looper, Trichoplusia ni (Hubner). I also examine the relationship between host plant quality, insect condition, immune responsiveness and resistance to pathogens. No-choice, two-choice, and multiple-choice experiments were performed to measure adult oviposition preference and neonate larval preference for six plant species. Two baseline and induced immune parameters, haemocyte numbers and haemolymph phenoloxidase (PO) activity, were estimated for larvae on two host plants, broccoli and cucumber. Haemolymph protein concentration was assessed as an indication of insect condition, and the susceptibility of larvae to T. ni single nucleopolyhedrovirus (SNPV) was used as a measure of disease resistance. Trichoplusia ni adults and larvae both preferred the same two plant species out of six that maximised larval performance. Larvae however, also correctly identified anise hyssop as a suitable host, whereas adults did not, indicating that larval diet breadth can be wider than adult host range. Larval development, survival and condition were much higher when larvae were reared on broccoli than on cucumber. Haemocyte numbers were significantly higher in broccoli-reared larvae, whereas PO activity was not. An immune challenge induced significantly elevated numbers of haemocytes for larvae reared on both hosts, but did not affect PO activity or protein concentrations. Susceptibility to T. ni SNPV was significantly greater in larvae reared on cucumber than on broccoli. These results clearly indicate that T. ni are capable of ranking the suitability of plants for larval performance. Larval development on an inferior host plant can affect both immune response and disease resistance indicating that bottom-up effects could be important in interactions between insects and entomopathogens.

description: The search for the Higgs boson is entering a decisive phase. The Large Hadron Collider experiments have collected more than 1 fb$^{-1}$ of data and are now capable of efficiently probing the high Higgs mass region, $m_H > 140$ GeV. The low mass region is more challenging at the LHC, but if the Higgs has Standard Model (SM)-like properties, the LHC should find evidence for it by the end of next year. In low energy supersymmetric extensions of the SM, the situation is similar for large values of the CP-odd Higgs mass $m_A$, but more interesting for lower values of $m_A$. The ($\sqrt{s}$ =7 TeV) LHC searches for a low-mass Standard Model Higgs boson predominantly in the $h\rightarrow γγ,WW$ decay modes, which may be suppressed by an increase in the $h\rightarrow b\bar{b}, τ^+ τ^-$ partial widths (and thus the total $h$ width) for $m_A\lesssim 500$ GeV. Although $h\rightarrow b\bar{b}, τ^+ τ^-$ are sought at the LHC, these channels are not powerful enough to fully counter this suppression in the first year of running. We consider two alternative possibilities for probing the low $m_A$ region: nonstandard Higgs boson searches at the LHC, and a statistical combination with the Tevatron, where $Vh\rightarrow b\bar{b}$ is the primary search channel for light $h$. We also study an MSSM scenario in which the $h\rightarrowγγ$ rate is enhanced at low $m_A$ to the point where discovery is possible in the near future.

description: We investigate the exclusive jet mass distribution in e+e- events, defined with a veto on the out-of-jet radiation, at two-loop order. In particular, we calculate the two-loop soft function, which is required to describe this distribution in the threshold region. When combined with other ingredients using soft-collinear effective theory, this generates the complete singular distribution for jet thrust, the sum of the jet masses, at two-loop order. The result is in excellent agreement with full QCD. The integrated jet thrust distribution is found to depend in an intricate way on both the finite jet cone size, R, and the jet veto scale. The result clarifies the structure of the potentially large logarithms (both global and non- global) which arise in jet observables for the first time at this order. Somewhat surprisingly, we find that, in the small R limit, there is a precise and simple correspondence between the non-global contribution to the integrated jet thrust distribution and the previously calculated non-global contribution to the integrated hemisphere soft function, including subleading terms. This suggests that the small R limit may provide a useful expansion for studying other exclusive jet substructure observables.

description: I present a numerical package (CosmoTransitions) for analyzing finite-temperature cosmological phase transitions driven by single or multiple scalar fields. The package analyzes the different vacua of a theory to determine their critical temperatures (where the vacuum energy levels are degenerate), their super-cooling temperatures, and the bubble wall profiles which separate the phases and describe their tunneling dynamics. I introduce a new method of path deformation to find the profiles of both thin- and thick-walled bubbles. CosmoTransitions is freely available for public use.

Flavor Phenomenology in General 5D Warped Spaces

description: We have considered a general 5D warped model with SM fields propagating in the bulk and computed explicit expressions for oblique and non-oblique electroweak observables as well as for flavor and CP violating effective four-fermion operators. We have compared the resulting lower bounds on the Kaluza-Klein (KK) scale in the RS model and a recently proposed model with a metric modified towards the IR brane, which is consistent with oblique parameters without the need for a custodial symmetry. We have randomly generated 40,000 sets of O(1) 5D Yukawa couplings and made a fit of the quark masses and CKM matrix elements in both models. This method allows to identify the percentage of points consistent with a given KK mass, which in turn provides us with a measure for the required fine-tuning. Comparison with current experimental data on Rb, FCNC and CP violating operators exhibits an improved behavior of our model with respect to the RS model. In particular, allowing 10% fine-tuning the combined results point towards upper bounds on the KK gauge boson masses around 3.3 TeV in our model as compared with 13 TeV in the RS model. One reason for this improvement is that fermions in our model are shifted, with respect to fermions in the RS model, towards the UV brane thus decreasing the strength of the modifications of electroweak observables.

description: A crystallite-pore network model (CPNM) was developed to simulate diffusion and reaction in polycrystalline zeolite catalysts. It has been applied to simulate the direct DME synthesis in bifunctional core-shell catalyst with an H-ZSM-5 shell, and xylene isomerization in an H-ZSM-5 membrane. The structural effects of H-ZSM-5 catalysts on these two reaction systems were studied via simulations. Some guidances on the catalyst optimization were also given from the simulation results.

description: We present near-to-mid-infrared spectral energy distributions (SEDs) for 21 Seyfert galaxies, using subarcsecond resolution imaging data. Our aim is to compare the properties Seyfert 1 (Sy1) and Seyfert 2 (Sy2) tori using clumpy torus models and a Bayesian approach to fit the infrared (IR) nuclear SEDs. These dusty tori have physical sizes smaller than 6 pc radius, as derived from our fits. Active galactic nuclei (AGN) unification schemes account for a variety of observational differences in terms of viewing geometry. However, we find evidence that strong unification may not hold, and that the immediate dusty surroundings of Sy1 and Sy2 nuclei are intrinsically different. The Type 2 tori studied here are broader, have more clumps, and these clumps have lower optical depths than those of Type 1 tori. The larger the covering factor of the torus, the smaller the probability of having direct view of the AGN, and vice-versa. In our sample, Sy2 tori have larger covering factors (C_T=0.95+/-0.02) and smaller escape probabilities than those of Sy1 (C_T=0.5+/-0.1). Thus, on the basis of the results presented here, the classification of a Seyfert galaxy may depend more on the intrinsic properties of the torus rather than on its mere inclination, in contradiction with the simplest unification model.

description: Ranking the nodes' ability for spreading in networks is a fundamental problem which relates to many real applications such as information and disease control. In the previous literatures, a network decomposition procedure called k-shell method has been shown to effectively identify the most influential spreaders. In this paper, we find that the k-shell method have some limitations when it is used to rank all the nodes in the network. We also find that these limitations are due to considering only the links between the remaining nodes (residual degree) while entirely ignoring all the links connecting to the removed nodes (exhausted degree) when decomposing the networks. Accordingly, we propose a mixed degree decomposition (MDD) procedure in which both the residual degree and the exhausted degree are considered. By simulating the epidemic process on the real networks, we show that the MDD method can outperform the k-shell and the degree methods in ranking spreaders. Finally, the influence of the network structure on the performance of the MDD method is discussed.

description: We report discovery of bulk superconductivity in Ni0.05ZrTe3 at Tc = 3.1 K, obtained through Ni intercalation. Superconductivity coexists with charge density wave (CDW) state with TCDW = 41 K. When compared to parent material ZrTe3, filamentary superconducting transition is substantially increased whereas TCDW was suppressed. The analysis of superconducting state indicates that Ni0.05ZrTe3 is an intermediately coupled superconductor.

description: As quantum computers progress towards a larger scale, it is imperative that the "top" of the computing-technology stack is improved. This project investigates the quantum resources required to compute primitive arithmetic algorithms, particularly multiplication. By using various quantum resource estimators, like Microsoft's Azure Quantum Resource Estimator, one can determine the resources required for numerous quantum algorithms [5]. In this paper, we will provide a comprehensive resource analysis of numerous quantum multiplication algorithms such as Karatsuba, schoolbook, and windowed arithmetic for different qubit platforms (trapped ion, superconducting, and Majorana) using the new Azure Quantum Resource Estimator.
