description: Exact solutions of a massive complex scalar field equation in the geometry of a Garfinkle-Horowitz-Strominger (stringy) black hole with magnetic charge is explored. The separated radial and angular parts of the wave equation are solved exactly in the non-extreme case. The angular part is shown to be an ordinary spin-weighted spheroidal harmonics with a spin-weight depending on the magnetic charge. The radial part is achieved to reduce a confluent Heun equation with a multiplier. Finally, based on the solutions, it is shown that Hawking temperature of the magnetically charged stringy black hole has the same value as that of the Schwarzschild black hole.

description: Microring resonators made from silicon are becoming a popular microscale device format for generating photon pairs at telecommunications wavelengths at room temperature. In compact devices with a footprint less than $5\times 10^{-4}$ mm$^2$, we demonstrate pair generation using only a few microwatts of average pump power. We discuss the role played by important parameters such as the loss, group-velocity dispersion and the ring-waveguide coupling coefficient in finding the optimum operating point for silicon microring pair generation. Silicon photonics can be fabricated using deep ultraviolet lithography wafer-scale fabrication processes, which is scalable and cost-effective. Such small devices and low pump power requirements, and the side-coupled waveguide geometry which uses an integrated waveguide, could be beneficial for future scaled-up architectures where many pair-generation devices are required on the same chip.

An Evaluation of State Coastal Program Efforts At Hazard Mitigation Through The Coastal Zone Management Act
Creators: name: Hush, Leanna L.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2004

description: The coastal zone management program is a voluntary, federal-state partnership that has influenced the coastal areas of the United States by promoting a balance between economic development and the conservation of natural resources. Section 309 of the Coastal Zone Management Act requires states to address coastal hazards as one of the eight identified issues of importance. Research on coastal programs was conducted through state program websites, a survey of coastal program managers, and an evaluation of Assessment & Strategy reports provided to NOAA by the state coastal programs. Coastal programs were evaluated based on survey findings related to program capacity, commitment, incentives and support provided to local governments, and program elements and improvements. States were ranked based on these factors, and common state program needs and obstacles were identified. Public education and outreach, and the need for more data, research, and policy evaluation were most frequently identified by states as program needs. Model programs are identified and recommendations are made for NOAA to increase the effectiveness of using coastal programs to address natural hazards. A continued effort at networking with other agencies responsible for natural hazard mitigation is essential as the coastal programs move forward in efforts to address coastal hazards.

description: Arrival directions of 40 neutrino events with energies >~100 TeV, observed by the IceCube experiment, are studied. Their distribution in the Galactic latitude and in the angular distance to the Galactic Center allow to search for the Milky-Way disk and halo-related components, respectively. No statistically significant evidence for the disk component is found, though even 100% disk origin of the flux is allowed at the 90% confidence level. Contrary, the Galactic Center-Anticenter dipole anisotropy, specific for dark-matter decays (annihilation) or for interactions of cosmic rays with the extended halo of circumgalactic gas, is clearly favoured over the isotropic distribution (the probability of a fluctuation of the isotropic signal is ~2%).

description: There has been increasing donor investment in research to identify the needs of particularly vulnerable youth--or youth in risk situations in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC). Youth in LMICs who are in risk situations often include, for example: working youth, trafficked youth, youth living outside of family care, homeless youth, young people affected by abuse or neglect, unaccompanied minors, including displaced, refugee and asylum-seeking youth. While there exists guidance on the safe and ethical conduct of research with children there remain important gaps to guide research specifically with young people affected by difficult or abusive circumstances. Furthermore, current ethical protocols include relatively little guidance on youth-appropriate approaches to participatory or co-production methods with young people in different risk contexts. Co-production methods are recognised for their benefits for youth themselves, for researchers and especially for action-oriented intervention development. The ethics of participatory research is particularly challenging because our current understanding of the mechanisms and influence of co-produced research is still somewhat limited, particularly among marginalised groups in LMICS, such as exploited youth. This scoping review is part of a programme of work will identify ethical challenges and practices in co-produced research (online and offline) with youth (ages 15-24) to carry out studies with young people (ages 10-24) in risk situations. A review of existing studies with children in at risk situations will be conducted to identify the research and ethical challenges that have been experienced, as well as key recommendations on how to overcome these

description: Modern programming frameworks come with large libraries, with diverse applications such as for matching regular expressions, parsing XML files and sending email. Programmers often use search engines such as Google and Bing to learn about existing APIs. In this paper, we describe SWIM, a tool which suggests code snippets given API-related natural language queries such as "generate md5 hash code". We translate user queries into the APIs of interest using clickthrough data from the Bing search engine. Then, based on patterns learned from open-source code repositories, we synthesize idiomatic code describing the use of these APIs. We introduce \emph{structured call sequences} to capture API-usage patterns. Structured call sequences are a generalized form of method call sequences, with if-branches and while-loops to represent conditional and repeated API usage patterns, and are simple to extract and amenable to synthesis. We evaluated SWIM with 30 common C# API-related queries received by Bing. For 70% of the queries, the first suggested snippet was a relevant solution, and a relevant solution was present in the top 10 results for all benchmarked queries. The online portion of the workflow is also very responsive, at an average of 1.5 seconds per snippet.

Plan Effectiveness Monitoring: A Case Study of Plan Implementation and Monitoring in New Zealand
Creators: name: Stanton, Rita
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2006

description: Impervious cover levels as low as 10 percent have been found to cause aquatic degradation. Even lower impervious cover levels can cause damage to sensitive aquatic ecosystems (Booth and Jackson, 1997). In areas of intense urban development, such as Auckland, New Zealand, the impervious cover is often far above 30 percent of the land area. Under the Resource Management Act (RMA) passed in 1991 in New Zealand, sustainable development is embraced through the use of planning to guide growth and development in a way which protects the viability of natural resources. This legislation assumes that by requiring plans to be written with an environmental sustainability focus, the shape of future development in New Zealand will be more likely to provide New Zealanders with a higher quality environment. The RMA is betting on development management for providing the answers to the currently deteriorating natural environment. This research project aims to test performance of an RMA-conforming plan in the area of protecting water quality. The data presented in this paper has been structured in the following manner: Institutional planning framework provided by the Resource Management Act; Literature review to provide the theoretical background; Methods of plan performance through analyzing resource consents; Water quality trends before and after plan adoption; and Recommendations for improving plan effectiveness evaluation. The guiding questions leading this research forward are, "How well has the national mandate for sustainable development been translated into policy objectives?" "How well have those policies been implemented into practice?" and "What have been the environmental outcomes?" Although this project is not claiming to make direct links between land use and water quality (many other researchers are currently working on this issue), it does provide insight into the process of plan implementation, monitoring, and evaluation. The paper concludes with recommendations for improving this process in future endeavors of proving the effectiveness of planning initiatives.

description: Accurate stellar parameters are needed in numerous domains of astrophysics. The position of stars on the H-R diagram is an important indication of their structure and evolution, and it helps improve stellar models. Furthermore, the age and mass of stars hosting planets are required elements for studying exoplanetary systems. We aim at determining accurate parameters of a set of 18 bright exoplanet host and potential host stars from interferometric measurements, photometry, and stellar models. Using the VEGA/CHARA interferometer, we measured the angular diameters of 18 stars, ten of which host exoplanets. We combined them with their distances to estimate their radii. We used photometry to derive their bolometric flux and, then, their effective temperature and luminosity to place them on the H-R diagram. We then used the PARSEC models to derive their best fit ages and masses, with error bars derived from MC calculations. Our interferometric measurements lead to an average of 1.9% uncertainty on angular diameters and 3% on stellar radii. There is good agreement between measured and indirect estimations of angular diameters (from SED fitting or SB relations) for MS stars, but not as good for more evolved stars. For each star, we provide a likelihood map in the mass-age plane; typically, two distinct sets of solutions appear (an old and a young age). The errors on the ages and masses that we provide account for the metallicity uncertainties, which are often neglected by other works. From measurements of its radius and density, we also provide the mass of 55 Cnc independently of models. From the stellar masses, we provide new estimates of semi-major axes and minimum masses of exoplanets with reliable uncertainties. We also derive the radius, density, and mass of 55 Cnc e, a super-Earth that transits its stellar host. Our exoplanetary parameters reflect the known population of exoplanets.

description: There are a lot of works within a class of classically scale invariant model, which is motivated by solving the gauge hierarchy problem. In this context, the Higgs mass vanishes at the UV scale due to the classically scale invariance, and is generated via the Coleman-Weinberg mechanism. Since the mass generation should occur not so far from the electroweak scale, we extend the standard model only around the TeV scale. We construct a model which can achieve the gauge coupling unification at the UV scale. In the same way, the model can realize the vacuum stability, smallness of active neutrino masses, baryon asymmetry of the universe, and dark matter relic abundance. The model predicts the existence vector-like fermions charged under $SU(3)_C$ with masses lower than $1\,{\rm TeV}$, and the SM singlet Majorana dark matter with mass lower than $2.6\,{\rm TeV}$.

description: We study the effects of correlations on cumulants and their ratios of net-proton multiplicity distributions which have been measured for central (0\%-5\%) Au + Au collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC). This effect has been studied assuming individual proton and anti-proton distributions as a Poisson or Negative Binomial Distribution (NBD). In-spite of significantly correlated production due to baryon number, electric charge conservation and kinematical correlations of protons and anti-protons, the measured cumulants of the net-proton distribution follow the independent production model. In the present work we demonstrate how the introduction of the correlations will affect the cumulants and their ratios for the difference distributions. We have also demonstrated this study using the proton and anti-proton distributions obtained from the HIJING event generator.

Evaluation of environmental effects of Songpa new town in Seoul, Korea
Creators: name: Huh, Jun
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2009

description: The rapid accumulation of people in a mega-city has caused major problems in the fields of housing, basic service, and transportation (Hall, 1984). Moreover, from the environmental point of view, increased impervious surfaces from the urbanization have threatened natural environments by reducing the amount of forest lands, wet lands, and other forms of open space that absorb and clean stormwater in the natural system (Brabec 2002). As one of the mega-cities in Asia, Seoul, the capital of South Korea, has faced these problems whenever new development plans within the city boundary were proposed. Seoul has experienced unprecedented changes in the population as well as in urban structure. According to the Seoul Metropolitan Government, by 1963 the population grew to about 3 million and the jurisdictional territory accordingly expanded to the current area of about 6002km, 2.3 times larger than before. The population of the city has more grown with the south development programs from the late 1960s to 1970s, which showed high-rise apartment buildings along the Han River. As a result, the south districts of Han River expanded rapidly, becoming a similar size of population as the north districts. In present, the population in Seoul is over 10 million inhabitants which occupy 25% of the total population of South Korea. However, the intense concentration of population in Seoul caused various urban problems such as skyrocketing housing price particularly in south districts, lack of transportation systems, and environmental disruption. The National Comprehensive Physical Plan in July, 1970 established 1,567 2km of urban growth boundary along the circumference of Seoul called Greenbelt, mostly composed of forest and woodland (Yokohari, 2000). The primary purposes were to prevent sprawl, protect the surrounding natural environment, reduce air and water pollution, and provide for recreational areas. The Seoul Greenbelt has been evaluated as a successful plan in achieving the goals due to strong legal control.
Measurements of Non-Thermal Line Widths in Solar Active Regions

description: Spectral line widths are often observed to be larger than can be accounted for by thermal and instrumental broadening alone. This excess broadening is a key observational constraint for both nanoflare and wave dissipation models of coronal heating. Here we present a survey of non-thermal velocities measured in the high temperature loops (1--5MK) often found in the cores of solar active regions. This survey of $\textit{Hinode}$ Extreme Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrometer (EIS) observations covers 15 non-flaring active regions that span a wide range of solar conditions. We find relatively small non-thermal velocities, with a mean value of 17km s$^{-1}$, and no significant trend with temperature or active region magnetic flux. These measurements appear to be inconsistent with those expected from reconnection jets in the corona, chromospheric evaporation induced by coronal nanoflares, and Alfvén wave turbulence models. Furthermore, because the observed non-thermal widths are generally small their measurements are difficult and susceptible to systematic effects.

description: Context: We introduce the Dwarf Galaxy Survey with Amateur Telescopes (DGSAT) project and report the discovery of eleven low surface brightness (LSB) galaxies in the fields of the nearby galaxies NGC 2683, NGC 3628, NGC 4594 (M104), NGC 4631, NGC 5457 (M101), and NGC 7814. Aims: The DGSAT project aims to use the potential of small-sized telescopes to probe LSB features around large galaxies and to increase the sample size of the dwarf satellite galaxies in the Local Volume. Methods: Using long exposure images, fields of the target spiral galaxies are explored for extended low surface brightness objects. After identifying dwarf galaxy candidates, their observed properties are extracted by fitting models to their light profiles. Results: We find three, one, three, one, one, and two new LSB galaxies in the fields of NGC 2683, 3628, 4594, 4631, 5457, and 7814, respectively. In addition to the newly found galaxies, we analyse the structural properties of nine already known galaxies. All of these 20 dwarf galaxy candidates have effective surface brightnesses in the range $25.3\lesssimμ_{e}\lesssim28.8$ mag.arcsec$^{-2}$ and are fit with Sersic profiles with indices $n\lesssim 1$. Assuming that they are in the vicinity of the above mentioned massive galaxies, their $r$-band absolute magnitudes, their effective radii, and their luminosities are in the ranges $-15.6 \lesssim M_r \lesssim -7.8$, 160 pc $\lesssim R_e \lesssim$ 4.1 kpc, and $0.1\times 10^6 \lesssim\left(\frac{L}{L_{\odot}}\right)_r\lesssim127 \times 10^6$, respectively. To determine whether these LSB galaxies are indeed satellites of the above mentioned massive galaxies, their distances need to be determined via further observations. Conclusions: Using small telescopes, we are readily able to detect LSB galaxies with similar properties to the known dwarf galaxies of the Local Group.

description: Migration and adhesion play critical roles in B cells, regulating recirculation between lymphoid organs, migration within lymphoid tissue, and interaction with CD4+ T cells. However, there is limited knowledge of how B cells integrate chemokine receptor and integrin signaling with B cell activation to generate efficient humoral responses. Here, we show that the WNK1 kinase, a regulator of migration and adhesion, is essential in B cells for T-dependent and -independent antibody responses. We demonstrate that WNK1 transduces signals from the BCR, CXCR5, and CD40, and using intravital imaging, we show that WNK1 regulates migration of naive and activated B cells, and their interactions with T cells. Unexpectedly, we show that WNK1 is required for BCR- and CD40-induced proliferation, acting through the OXSR1 and STK39 kinases, and for efficient B cell-T cell collaboration in vivo. Thus, WNK1 is critical for humoral immune responses, by regulating B cell migration, adhesion, and T cell-dependent activation.

description: Preregistration: The Relationship Between Personal Values, Personality, and Psychopathology in Middle Childhood Raul A. España, Cassandra M. Brandes, Allison N. Shields, Cheyenne M. Bates, Avanté J. Smack, and Jennifer L. Tackett 1. Research Question/Hypothesis The associations between personality traits and psychopathology in children are robust (e.g., De Bolle et al., 2012; Kushner, 2015). Yet, personal values, which are defined as guiding life principles that influence individuals’ behaviors, decision-making, and perceptions of events (Parks & Guay, 2009), are another branch of individual differences that might shed light on important behavioral outcomes such as psychopathology. Limited work has investigated Schwartz’s theory of personal values (Schwartz, 1992) in the context of psychopathology in adults (e.g., Hanel & Wolfradt, 2016) and found that certain personal values are associated with psychopathological constructs (e.g., achievement and power positively correlate with aggression and violence; Benish-Weisman, 2015, Knafo et al., 2008). However, these associations have not been examined explicitly in children. Furthermore, gender and racial/ethnic group membership has not been considered when examining the values-psychopathology association in adults, leaving to question if either gender or ethnic group membership influences the strength of the values-psychopathology association in children. Given known associations between child personality and psychopathology, it is important to examine the extent to which personal values may increment the prediction of psychopathology (beyond personality traits). In addition, personality traits and values may interact in increasing either risk or resiliency for psychopathology in childhood. The current study is designed to inform these research questions. In the present study using a cross-sectional sample of middle childhood-aged children, we aim to answer the following research questions: 1. What are the associations between child personal values and broad psychopathology domains (i.e., internalizing and externalizing problems) in children? a. Do these correlational associations differ by gender and/or race/ethnicity? 2. Do children’s personal values increment the prediction of psychopathology beyond the Five Factor Model personality traits? 3. Do children’s personal values moderate the associations between child personality traits and psychopathology?

description: We study the motion of neutral and charged spinning bodies in curved space-time in the test-particle limit. We construct equations of motion using a closed covariant Poisson-Dirac bracket formulation which allows for different choices of the hamiltonian. We derive conditions for the existence of constants of motion and apply the formalism to the case of spherically symmetric space-times. We show that the periastron of a spinning body in a stable orbit in a Schwarzschild or Reissner-Nordstrøm background not only precesses, but also varies radially. By analysing the stability conditions for circular motion we find the innermost stable circular orbit (ISCO) as a function of spin. It turns out that there is an absolute lower limit on the ISCOs for increasing prograde spin. Finally we establish that the equations of motion can also be derived from the Einstein equations using an appropriate energy-momentum tensor for spinning particles.

The Collaborative Place-making Approach: Increasing Public Support for Density
Creators: name: Lindquist, Nathan
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2007

description: As urban neighborhoods in many cities revitalize, planners pushing for increased density often come into conflict with local stakeholders who are wary of increased density in their neighborhoods. In order to obtain public support for increased density, planners must first ensure that plans protect neighborhood quality. This paper hypothesizes that one way to reach the twin goals of increased density and preserved neighborhood quality is through a collaborative place-making approach to planning. The collaborative place-making approach utilizes collaborative planning tools like charrettes that allow the public to tailor density to the context of their neighborhood. This approach also frames the planning process around the idea of place-making. Placemaking improves public perceptions of density by focusing on creating a great place. This paper hypothesizes that collaborative planning and a place-making frame may make the public more comfortable with density. After a discussion of the collaborative place-making approach, this paper evaluates a case-study where the approach was used by planners: the Durham Ninth Street plan. The case study finds that the collaborative place-making approach was successful in increasing public support for density. Furthermore, giving the public a role in developing the plan through collaborative planning is the most important factor in obtaining public support for density.

description: We demonstrate a substantial improvement in the spin-exchange gate using symmetric control instead of conventional detuning in GaAs spin qubits, up to a factor-of-six increase in the quality factor of the gate. For symmetric operation, nanosecond voltage pulses are applied to the barrier that controls the interdot potential between quantum dots, modulating the exchange interaction while maintaining symmetry between the dots. Excellent agreement is found with a model that separately includes electrical and nuclear noise sources for both detuning and symmetric gating schemes. Unlike exchange control via detuning, the decoherence of symmetric exchange rotations is dominated by rotation-axis fluctuations due to nuclear field noise rather than direct exchange noise.

description: In the case of three quark flavors, (pseudo)scalar diquarks transform as antiquarks under chiral transformations. We construct four spin-1/2 baryonic multiplets from left- and right-handed quarks as well as left- and right-handed diquarks. The fact that two of these multiplets transform in a "mirror" way allows for chirally invariant mass terms. We then embed these baryonic multiplets into the Lagrangian of the so-called extended Linear Sigma Model, which features (pseudo)scalar and (axial-)vector mesons, as well as glueballs. Reducing the Lagrangian to the two-flavor case, we obtain four doublets of nucleonic states. These mix to produce four experimentally observed states with definite parity: the positive-parity nucleon $N(939)$ and Roper resonance $N(1440)$, as well as the negative-parity resonances $N(1535)$ and $N(1650)$. We determine the parameters of the nucleonic part of the Lagrangian from a fit to masses and decay properties of the aforementioned states. Studying the limit of vanishing quark condensate, we conclude that $N(939)$ and $N(1535)$, as well as $N(1440)$ and $N(1650)$ form pairs of chiral partners.

description: General neutrino-scalar couplings appear in many extensions of Standard Model. We can probe these neutrino-scalar couplings by leptonic decay of mesons and from heavy neutrino search. Our analysis improves the present limits to $|g_e|^2<1.9\times 10^{-6}$ and $|g_μ|^2<1.9\times 10^{-7}$ at 90\% C.L. for massless scalars. For massive scalars we found for the first time the constraints for $g^2_α$ couplings to be $10^{-6}-10^{-1}$ respectively for scalar masses between below 1 MeV and for 300 MeV.

Inequality in the Creative City: Is There a Place for "Old-Fashioned" Institutions?
Creators: name: Donegan, Mary
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2006

description: This paper is an attempt to bring the traditional theories and frameworks of inequality analysis to Florida's work, through a literature review, statistical analysis, and in-depth policy analysis. The questions to be answered in this paper are threefold. First, is the creative class the sole predictor of inequality in metropolitan areas, or are alternative, well-studied factors and theories (such a skill-biased technical change, demand for college credentials, immigration, etc) better predictors of inequality? Second, are "old-fashioned" institutions-such as the minimum wage or union protections-really useless in combating today's inequality, or is there still a role for them to play in the creative economy? And third, what policies can local metropolitan areas undertake to lessen the impacts of inequality? It should be stressed that this paper is not meant to be a wholesale dismissal of Florida's work; rather, it is an attempt to determine what causes the variation in the inequality index, and which policies would be appropriate to incorporate into the creative class framework in order to limit inequality. As evidenced by its popularity, creative development theories are here to stay-at least until the next popular development strategy comes along. For those that advocate for the interests of lower- and middle-income workers, dismissing the creative class strategies that are being followed in communities across the world will not help their cause. Rather, solutions that can incorporate both creative and non-creative solutions are the most likely to be both politically and financially feasible. The structure of this paper will be as follows. Section II presents an in-depth review of Florida's writings on inequality. Section III includes a brief conceptual overview of inequality, as well as a review of the common casual factors that appear in inequality literature. Section IV presents the methodology for the statistical analysis, Section V provides an overview of the data used in the statistical models, and Section VI presents the results from the models. Using the results from the statistical analysis and applicable research to date, Section VII outlines potential policy solutions that could decrease the type of occupational wage inequality that exists alongside Florida's classes, and Section VIII offers a conclusion.
