description: Currently, there are an estimated 2.8 million breast cancer survivors in the United States.  Due to modern screening practices and raised awareness, the majority of these cases will be diagnosed in the early stages of disease where highly effective treatment options are available, leading a large proportion of these patients to fail from causes other than breast cancer.  The primary cause of death in the United States today is cardiovascular disease, which can be delayed or prevented with interventions such as lifestyle modifications or medications.  In order to identify individuals who may be at high risk for a cardiovascular event or cardiovascular mortality, a number of prognostic models have been developed.  The majority of these models were developed on populations free of comorbid conditions, utilizing statistical methods that did not account for the competing risks of death from other causes, therefore it is unclear whether they will be generalizable to a cancer population remaining at an increased risk of death from cancer and other causes.  Consequently, the purpose of this work is multi-fold.  We will first summarize the major statistical methods available for analyzing competing risk data and include a simulation study comparing them.   This will be used to inform the interpretation of the real data analysis, which will be conducted on a large, contemporary cohort of breast cancer survivors.  For these women, we will categorize the major causes of death, hypothesizing that it will include cardiovascular failure.  Next, we will evaluate the existing cardiovascular disease risk models in our population of cancer survivors, and then propose a new model to simultaneously predict a survivor's risk of death due to her breast cancer or due to cardiovascular disease, while accounting for additional competing causes of death.  Lastly, model predicted outcomes will be calculated for the cohort, and evaluation methods will be applied to determine the clinical utility of such a model.

description: For any odd squarefree integer r, we get complete description of the G_r=Gal(Q(mu_r)/Q) group cohomology of the universal ordinary distribution U_r in this paper. Moreover, if M is a fixed integer which divides l-1 for all prime factors l of r, we study the cohomology group H^{*}(G_r, U_r/MU_r). In particular, we explain the mysterious construction of the elements kappa_{r'} for r'|r in Rubin's construction of Kolyvagin elements, which come exactly from a certain Z/M Z-basis of the cohomology group H^{0}(G_r, U_r/MU_r) through an evaluation map.

description: The electronic structure of Si(110)"16 x 2" double-domain, single-domain and 1 x 1 surfaces have been investigated using spin- and angle-resolved photoemission at sample temperatures of 77 K and 300 K. Angle-resolved photoemission was conducted using horizontally- and vertically-polarised 60 eV and 80 eV photons. Band-dispersion maps revealed four surface states ($S_1$ to $S_4$) which were assigned to silicon dangling bonds on the basis of measured binding energies and photoemission intensity changes between horizontal and vertical light polarisations. Three surface states ($S_1$, $S_2$ and $S_4$), observed in the Si(110)"16 x 2" reconstruction, were assigned to Si adatoms and Si atoms present at the edges of the corrugated terrace structure. Only one of the four surface states, $S_3$, was observed in both the Si(110)"16 x 2" and 1 x 1 band maps and consequently attributed to the pervasive Si zigzag chains that are components of both the Si(110)"16 x 2" and 1 x 1 surfaces. A state in the bulk-band region was attributed to an in-plane bond. All data were consistent with the adatom-buckling model of the Si(110)"16 x 2" surface. Whilst room temperature measurements of $P_y$ and $P_z$ were statistically compatible with zero, $P_x$ measurements of the enantiomorphic A-type and B-type Si(110)"16 x 2" surfaces gave small average polarisations of around 1.5\% that were opposite in sign. Further measurements at 77 K on A-type Si(110)"16 x 2" surface gave a smaller value of +0.3\%. An upper limit of $\sim1\%$ may thus be taken for the longitudinal polarisation.

Professional and Petty: An Investigation Into the Social and Individual Conditions That Promote Instigated Acts of Workplace Incivility Between Black Professionals

description: The crabs-in-a-barrel (CIB) mentality—a specialized form of incivility that occurs among members of the same ingroup (i.e., intragroup incivility)—is an understudied yet destructive and consequential intragroup phenomenon. As previous studies on the CIB mentality among the Black community have primarily focused on targets of the deviant behavior, this study trailblazed by serving as the first to employ a mixed methods design to investigate the environmental, perceptual, and affective antecedents of instigated Black-on-Black (B-o-B) incivility in the workplace. More specifically, the present study adopted a social-interactionist approach to investigate whether various aspects of work climate (i.e., institutional discrimination, interpersonal prejudice, and competitive work climate); affective states (i.e., emotional taxation); and workgroup composition factors (i.e., perceived collective and competitive minority threats) were positively associated with instigated B-o-B incivility in the workplace. To that end, a cross-sectional design was employed with a U.S. based sample of 523 full-time Black professionals across various organizations and industries. The proposed hypotheses were tested using logistic regression analyses.
      Overall, the results showed that collective minority threat and experienced incivility were the most consistently significant predictors of instigated B-o-B incivility in the proposed model—with experienced incivility showing the greatest effect on the outcome variable between the two. Moreover, participants reported that there were 10 primary reasons and/or justifications for acting uncivilly towards another Black employee at their job within the past year. This study provides further support and validation to the notion that the CIB phenomenon represents another variant of the workplace incivility construct. Additionally, this study broadens the workplace incivility discussion and research stream by offering unique insight into the perspectives of racial minority instigators of uncivil behavior at work. The results hold considerable implications for practitioners and organizations seeking to better understand, and address, the issue of intragroup incivility in the workplace—particularly as it relates to Black professionals. Theoretical implications and directions for future research are also discussed.

Subjects: subject: Brunsvicensien der Universitätsbibliothek Braunschweig

description: New arrangements for photochemical reactions of substances with active absorption especially in the short wavelength region of the ultraviolet spectrum are described. As light sources are used water cooled high pressure mercury lamps and new xenon arc lamps. The water cooled annual cylindrical vessels containing the photochemical substances are made of fused quartz or special glasses with adapted transmission in the ultraviolet spectrum. They surround completely the light sources which can be exchanged very easily. In this way energy losses of u.v.-radiation and heating of the photochemical substances are avoided, so that best efficiencies can be reached in less than the tenth of the time needed before. This could be confirmed in various photochemical reactions i. e. with vitamin D2 and chlorination of benzene.

description: We provide a detailed analysis of Friedmann-Robertson-Walker universes in a wide range of scalar-tensor theories of gravity. We apply solution-generating methods to three parametrised classes of scalar-tensor theory which lead naturally to general relativity in the weak-field limit. We restrict the parameters which specify these theories by the requirements imposed by the weak-field tests of gravitation theories in the solar system and by the requirement that viable cosmological solutions be obtained. We construct a range of exact solutions for open, closed, and flat isotropic universes containing matter with equation of state $p\leq \frac{1}{3}ρ$ and in vacuum. We study the range of early and late-time behaviours displayed, examine when there is a `bounce' at early times, and expansion maxima in closed models.

description: Experimental testing has been conducted to determine the effect of amendment of soil with mineral fertilizer, biochar, and peat on emergence, survival, establishment, and productivity of northern boreal plant species grown on poor substrates in a controlled environment (in greenhouse). Four species (slender wheatgrass, rocky mountain fescue, American vetch, and common yarrow) were grown in pots containing poor sandy soil amended with mineral fertilizer and/or organic amendments (peat or biochar). The greenhouse temperature, lighting and pot watering regimes simulated the conditions of vegetation growing season in northern boreal forest. The trials showed that mineral fertilizer had a limited ability to promote plant growth compared to peat and biochar. Both types of organic amendments had similar positive effects on the establishment of two test species (American vetch and common yarrow) and on the growth of three test species (slender wheatgrass, rocky mountain fescue and American vetch). Peat had a stronger positive effect on emergence of slender wheatgrass and establishment of rocky mountain, while biochar promoted the common yarrow growth better than peat.

description: We develop a ``unified'' model that describes both ``micro'' and ``macro'' evolutions within a single theoretical framework. The eco-system is described as a dynamic network; the population dynamics at each node of this network describes the ``micro''-evolution over ecological time scales (i.e., birth, ageing and natural death of individual organisms) while the appearance of new nodes, the slow changes of the links and the disappearance of existing nodes accounts for the ``macro'' evolution over geological time scales (i.e., the origination, evolution and extinction of species). In contrast to several earlier claims in the literature, we observe strong deviations from power law in the regime of long life times where the statistics is, usually, poor.

These correlations are manifested by a non-linear suppression of the Coulomb pseudogap which inhibits low energy interlayer tunneling in weakly-coupled bilayers. The pseudogap suppression is strongest at $ν_T=1$ and grows rapidly as the critical layer separation for exciton condensation is approached from above.

Professional learning communities
Teaching--Methodology

description: Next Generation Science Standards and the Framework for K-12 Science Education encourage teachers to not only change the content of their teaching, but also the way that they deliver it. In order to promote these modern teaching practices, professional development (PD) experiences for teachers need to develop new approaches that enhance the transfer of the PD context into the teachers’ classroom practice. In this research study, professional learning communities (PLCs), defined as collaborative groups of teachers who make their practice visible within their professional learning, are analyzed in a formally instituted series of teacher professional education offerings.  Moreover, the setting included a professional learning community composed of teacher-facilitators who were actively engaged as facilitators of other PLCs. The goal of this design experiment was to both explore PLCs as PD models within science education as well as to begin to develop tools for PD that allow teachers to work from within the context of their own classroom. The sources of evidence used in this study included teacher and student produced artifacts and interviews, and written transcripts of the sessions were also examined. All data were primarily explored using methodology taken from grounded theory. This approach facilitated identification of emergent themes that particularly addressed some of the ways that researchers and teacher leaders can work together in the future to make certain that PD and the teachers’ classroom practices are more coherently connected.  The following themes were identified: refining the focus of professional learning communities to allow for investigations of student learning in the classroom, especially with an eye towards supporting transparency of practice through artifacts, and the usefulness of cycles of inquiry as a construct for planning professional learning communities.  Furthermore, it became clear that there is a need for explicit norms to frame the classroom around what constitutes acceptable explanations and justifications for productive classroom experiences. Among other findings, it is recommended that borrowing from and adapting the work of scholars in sociomathematical norms around the use of explanations can be the basis for a possible framework for improving future studies of teacher professional practice.

description: The spectrum of the radiation of a body in equilibrium is given by Planck's law. In plasma, however, waves below the plasma frequency cannot propagate; consequently, the equilibrium radiation inside plasma is necessarily different from the Planck spectrum. We derive, using three different approaches, the spectrum for the equilibrium radiation inside plasma. We show that, while plasma effects cannot be realistically detected with technology available in the near future, there are a number of quantifiable ways in which plasma affects cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation.

description: Relationship-based access control (ReBAC) is a flexible and expressive framework that allows policies to be expressed in terms of chains of relationship between entities as well as attributes of entities. ReBAC policy mining algorithms have a potential to significantly reduce the cost of migration from legacy access control systems to ReBAC, by partially automating the development of a ReBAC policy. Existing ReBAC policy mining algorithms support a policy language with a limited set of operators; this limits their applicability. This paper presents a ReBAC policy mining algorithm designed to be both (1) easily extensible (to support additional policy language features) and (2) scalable. The algorithm is based on Bui et al.'s evolutionary algorithm for ReBAC policy mining algorithm. First, we simplify their algorithm, in order to make it easier to extend and provide a methodology that extends it to handle new policy language features. However, extending the policy language increases the search space of candidate policies explored by the evolutionary algorithm, thus causes longer running time and/or worse results. To address the problem, we enhance the algorithm with a feature selection phase. The enhancement utilizes a neural network to identify useful features. We use the result of feature selection to reduce the evolutionary algorithm's search space. The new algorithm is easy to extend and, as shown by our experiments, is more efficient and produces better policies.

description: Classical mechanics and standard Copenhagen quantum mechanics respect subspace implications. For example, if a particle is confined in a particular region $R$ of space, then in these theories we can deduce that it is confined in regions containing $R$. However, subspace implications are generally violated by versions of quantum theory that assign probabilities to histories, such as the consistent histories approach. I define here a new criterion, ordered consistency, which refines the criterion of consistency and has the property that inferences made by ordered consistent sets do not violate subspace relations. This raises the question: do the operators defining our observations form an ordered consistent history? If so, ordered consistency defines a version of quantum theory with greater predictive power than the consistent histories formalism. If not, and our observations are defined by a non-ordered consistent quantum history, then subspace implications are not generally valid.

description: In this paper we investigate the parabolic-hyperbolic formulation of the vacuum constraint equations introduced by R{á}cz with a view to constructing multiple black hole initial data sets without spin. In order to respect the natural properties of this configuration, we foliate the spatial domain with 2-spheres. It is then a consequence of these equations that they must be solved as an initial value problem evolving outwards towards spacelike infinity. Choosing the free data and the "strong field boundary conditions" for these equations in a way which mimics asymptotically flat and asymptotically spherical binary black hole initial data sets, our focus in this paper is on the analysis of the asymptotics of the solutions. In agreement with our earlier results, our combination of analytical and numerical tools reveals that these solutions are in general not asymptotically flat, but have a cone geometry instead. In order to remedy this and approximate asymptotically Euclidean data sets, we then propose and test an iterative numerical scheme.

description: We study the phase diagram of strongly interacting matter with light quarks using a recently proposed, small parameter approach to infrared QCD in the Landau gauge. This is based on an expansion with respect to both the inverse number of colors and the pure Yang-Mills coupling in the presence of a Curci-Ferrari mass term. At leading order, this leads to the well-known rainbow equation for the quark propagator with a massive gluon propagator. We solve the latter at nonzero temperature and chemical potential using a simple semi-analytic approximation known to capture the essence of chiral symmetry breaking in the vacuum. In the chiral limit, we find a tricritical point which becomes a critical endpoint in the presence of a nonzero bare quark mass, in agreement with the results of nonperturbative functional methods and model calculations. This supports the view that the present approach allows for a systematic study of the QCD phase diagram in a controlled expansion scheme.

description: Einstein's equations admit solutions corresponding to photon rockets. In these a massive particle recoils because of the anisotropic emission of photons. In this paper we ask whether rocket motion can be powered only by the emission of gravitational waves. We use the double series approximation method and show that this is possible. A loss of mass and gain in momentum arise in the second approximation because of the emission of quadrupole and octupole waves.

description: A microscopic thermodynamically consistent approach is applied to compute electron capture (EC) rates and cross sections on nuclei in hot stellar environments. The cross section calculations are based on the Donnelly-Walecka multipole expansion method for treatment of semi-leptonic processes in nuclei. To take into account thermal effects, we express the electron capture cross section in terms of temperature- and momentum-dependent spectral functions for respective multipole charge-changing operators. The spectral functions are computed by employing the self-consistent thermal quasiparticle RPA (TQRPA) with the Skyrme effective interaction. Three different Skyrme parametrizations (SkM$^*$, SGII and SLy4) are used to investigate thermal effects on EC for $^{56}$Fe and $^{78}$Ni. For $^{56}$Fe, the impact of thermally unblocked GT$_+$ transitions on EC is discussed and the results are compared with those from shell-model calculations. In particular, it is shown that for some temperature and density regimes the TQRPA rates exceed the shell-model rates due to violation of the Brink-Axel hypothesis within the TQRPA. For neutron-rich $^{78}$Ni the full momentum-dependence of multipole transition operators is considered and it is found that not only thermally unblocked allowed $1^+$ transitions but also thermally unblocked first-forbidden $1^-$ and $2^-$ transitions favour EC.

Field trials on use of biochar versus peat for land reclamation purposes

description: Biochar application for revegetation purposes in northern Saskatchewan was studied to determine its effectiveness as a soil amendment in establishing sustainable vegetative soil covers. The abandoned Gunnar Mine Site, located on the northern shore of Lake Athabasca, served as a study area to test the effectiveness of biochar as a soil amendment. Field trials were carried out to compare the effect of biochar and peat application on the growth and establishment of native plant species. The field trials showed that peat promotes vegetation cover establishment better than biochar. Biochar also had a positive effect on vegetation recovery through both establishment of seeded plants and self-establishment of natural invaders (plant species not seeded during the experiment). Peat and biochar had different effects as soil amendments, depending on the plant species. It was shown that both peat and biochar can be used to promote plant establishment and growth, but biochar effectiveness may vary depending on its properties.

Diagnosis of topological nodal lines with nontrivial monopole charge in the presence of rotation symmetries

description: We discuss a general diagnosis scheme for topological nodal lines protected by time-reversal symmetry and space-inversion symmetry, in the absence of spin-orbit coupling. It is shown that when a shallow band inversion (with a small inverted gap) appears at the $Γ$-point in the Brillouin zone, nodal lines are generated along with the inversion. Much information on the types and numbers of these nodal lines can be related to the rotation eigenvalues and inversion eigenvalues of the inverted bands. In addition, we establish a $\mathbb{Z}$-type monopole charge for nodal lines with fourfold or sixfold rotation axis. We point out that the new monopole charge is only well-defined in a fragile sense, that is, when the orbitals near the Fermi energy are restricted to those having the same sign under a twofold rotation. The diagnosis scheme goes beyond the one discussed in Phys. Rev. X 8, 031069 (2018), particularly when there is a band crossing along some high-symmetry line, or when the nodal line has non-unity monopole charge.

description: Spherically symmetric solutions in Brans-Dicke theory of relativity with zero coupling constant, $ω=0$, are derived in the Schwarzschild line-element. The solutions are obtained from a cubic transition equation with one small parameter. The exterior space-time of one family of solutions is arbitrarily close to the exterior Schwarzschild space-time. These nontopological solitons have some similarity with soliton stars, and are proposed as candidates for {\em approximate black holes} for the use in numerical relativity, in particular for treatment of horizon boundary conditions.

description: We analize the role of GL_2, a quantum group constructed by Dipper-Donkin, as a global symmetry for quantum chains, and show the way to construct all possible Hamiltonians for four states quantum chains with GL_2 global symmetry. In doing this, we search all inner actions of GL_2 on the Clifford algebra C(1,3) and show them. We also introduce the corresponding operator algebras, invariants and Hamiltonians, explicitly.

description: In terms of quantum probability statistics the Bell inequality (BI) and its violation are extended to spin-$s$ entangled Schrödinger cat-state (called the Bell cat-state) with both parallel and antiparallel spin-polarizations. The BI is never ever violated for the measuring outcome probabilities evaluated over entire two-spin Hilbert space except the spin-$1/2$ entangled states. A universal Bell-type inequality (UBI) denoted by $p_{s}^{lc}\leq0$ is formulated with the local realistic model under the condition that the measuring outcomes are restricted in the subspace of spin coherent states. A spin parity effect is observed that the UBI can be violated only by the Bell cat-states of half-integer but not the integer spins. The violation of UBI is seen to be a direct result of non-trivial Berry phase between the spin coherent states of south- and north-pole gauges for half-integer spin, while the geometric phase is trivial for the integer spins. A maximum violation bound of UBI is found as $p_{s}^{\max}$=1, which is valid for arbitrary half-integer spin-$s$ states.

description: High- and low-field magneto-transport measurements, as well as SQUID measurements of magnetization, were carried out on Ga1-xMnxAs epilayers grown by low temperature molecular beam epitaxy, and subsequently annealed under various conditions. We observe a large enhancement of ferromagnetism when the samples are annealed at an optimal temperature, typically about 280 0C. Such optimal annealing leads to an increase of Curie temperature, accompanied by an increase of both the conductivity and the saturation magnetization. A decrease of the coercive field and of magnetoresistivity is also observed for Ga1-xMnxAs annealed at optimal conditions. We suggest that the experimental results reported in this paper are related to changes in the domain structure of Ga1-xMnxAs.
