description: Rather than creating yet another network controller which provides a framework in a specific (potentially new) programming language and runs as a monolithic application, in this paper we extend an existing operating system and leverage its software ecosystem in order to serve as a practical SDN controller. This paper introduces yanc, a controller platform for software-defined networks which exposes the network configuration and state as a file system, enabling user and system applications to interact through standard file I/O, and to easily take advantage of the tools available on the host operating system. In yanc, network applications are separate processes, are provided by multiple sources, and may be written in any language. Applications benefit from common and powerful technologies such as the virtual file system (VFS) layer, which we leverage to layer a distributed file system on top of, and Linux namespaces, which we use to isolate applications with different views (e.g., slices). In this paper we present the goals and design of yanc. Our initial prototype is built with the FUSE file system in user space on Linux and has been demonstrated with a simple static flow pusher application. Effectively, we are making Linux the network operating system.

description: Ab initio atomic relaxations often take large numbers of steps and long times to converge. An atomic relaxation method based on on-the-flight force learning and a corresponding new curved line minimization algorithm is presented to dramatically accelerate this process. Results for metal clusters demonstrate the significant speedup of this method compared with conventional conjugate-gradient method.

description: This exploratory study reports the results of 20 in-person interviews conducted with professional reference librarians at public libraries in the Triangle area of North Carolina regarding the librarians' opinions about the impact that online reference sources have had on the collection and use of print reference sources at their libraries. Study results indicate that most librarians are comfortable with using both print and online reference sources to answer patrons' reference questions but that they have found that certain types of questions lend themselves more readily to being answered either by print or by online reference sources. Librarians stated that a patron's preferences often dictate whether they will use a print or an online source to answer the patron's reference question. Additionally, many librarians reported that several reference sources formerly held in print format have been augmented or replaced by online reference sources.

description: We have developed techniques to extract arbitrary fractions of antiprotons from an accumulated reservoir, and to inject them into a Penning-trap system for high-precision measurements. In our trap-system antiproton storage times > 1.08 years are estimated. The device is fail-safe against power-cuts of up to 10 hours. This makes our planned comparisons of the fundamental properties of protons and antiprotons independent from accelerator cycles, and will enable us to perform experiments during long accelerator shutdown periods when background magnetic noise is low. The demonstrated scheme has the potential to be applied in many other precision Penning trap experiments dealing with exotic particles.

description: Memristors are receiving keen interest because of their potential varied applications and promising large-scale information storage capabilities. Tantalum oxide is a memristive material that has shown promise for high-performance nonvolatile computer memory. The microphysics has been elusive because of the small scale and subtle physical changes that accompany conductance switching. In this study, we probed the atomic composition, local chemistry and electronic structure of functioning tantalum oxide memristors through spatially mapped O K-edge x-ray absorption. We developed a time-multiplexed spectromicroscopy technique to enhance the weak and possibly localized oxide modifications with spatial and spectral resolutions of <30 nm and 70 meV, respectively. During the initial stages of conductance switching of a micrometer sized crosspoint device, the spectral changes were uniform within the spatial resolution of our technique. When the device was further driven with millions of high voltage-pulse cycles, we observed lateral motion and separation of ~100 nm-scale agglomerates of both oxygen interstitials and vacancies. We also demonstrate a unique capability of this technique by identifying the relaxation behavior in the material during electrical stimuli by identifying electric field driven changes with varying pulse widths. In addition, we show that changes to the material can be localized to a spatial region by modifying its topography or uniformity, as against spatially uniform changes observed here during memristive switching. The goal of this report is to introduce the capability of time-multiplexed x-ray spectromicroscopy in studying weak-signal transitions in inhomogeneous media through the example of the operation and temporal evolution of a memristor.

description: This paper explores the differences between privacy policies on governmental and private enterprise websites. Three industries, healthcare, financial, and political, were selected for comparison. The six policies that were analyzed include regulations.gov, Facebook, healthcare.gov, Blue Cross Blue Shield, The U.S. Office of Personnel Management and Fidelity Investments. These sites were chosen because users may share similar information when interacting with site services. The content analysis was performed to determine if there were significant differences in policy content and coverage. Although there were no obvious differences when policies were examined at a surface level, a close reading revealed that policy coverage and content was not the same. The policies were further analyzed to show how they discuss cookies, the ways in which a user could opt out of data collection, information sharing with third parties, and the often blurred lines between involuntary and voluntary information collection present. The results of the analysis revealed that governmental websites often have policies that provide more detailed and comprehensive information about user choice and policy coverage.

description: Astrophysical plasmas are subject to a tight connection between magnetic fields and the diffusion of particles, which leads to an anisotropic transport of energy. Under the fluid assumption, this effect can be reduced to an advection-diffusion equation augmenting the equations of magnetohydrodynamics. We introduce a new method for solving the anisotropic diffusion equation using an implicit finite-volume method with adaptive mesh refinement and adaptive time-stepping in the RAMSES code. We apply this numerical solver to the diffusion of cosmic ray energy, and diffusion of heat carried by electrons, which couple to the ion temperature. We test this new implementation against several numerical experiments and apply it to a simple supernova explosion with a uniform magnetic field.

description: The reality of the zeros of the product and cross-product of Bessel and modified Bessel functions of the first kind is studied. As a consequence the reality of the zeros of two hypergeometric polynomials is obtained together with the number of the Fourier critical points of the normalized forms of the product and cross-product of Bessel functions. Moreover, the interlacing properties of the real zeros of these products of Bessel functions and their derivatives are also obtained. As an application some geometric properties of the normalized forms of the cross-product and product of Bessel and modified Bessel functions of the first kind are studied. For the cross-product and the product three different kind of normalization are investigated and for each of the six functions the radii of starlikeness and convexity are precisely determined by using their Hadamard factorization. For these radii of starlikeness and convexity tight lower and upper bounds are given via Euler-Rayleigh inequalities. Necessary and sufficient conditions are also given for the parameters such that the six normalized functions are starlike and convex in the open unit disk. The properties and the characterization of real entire functions from the Laguerre-Pólya class via hyperbolic polynomials play an important role in this paper. Some open problems are also stated, which may be of interest for further research.

description: Despite significant progress in resonant inelastic x-ray scattering (RIXS) experiments on cuprates at the Cu L-edge, a theoretical understanding of the cross-section remains incomplete in terms of elementary excitations and the connection to both charge and spin structure factors. Here we use state-of-the-art, unbiased numerical calculations to study the low energy excitations probed by RIXS in undoped and doped Hubbard model relevant to the cuprates. The results highlight the importance of scattering geometry, in particular both the incident and scattered x-ray photon polarization, and demonstrate that on a qualitative level the RIXS spectral shape in the cross-polarized channel approximates that of the spin dynamical structure factor. However, in the parallel-polarized channel the complexity of the RIXS process beyond a simple two-particle response complicates the analysis, and demonstrates that approximations and expansions which attempt to relate RIXS to less complex correlation functions can not reproduce the full diversity of RIXS spectral features.
Progress in Nitrogen Vacancy Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Detection

Subjects: subject: Physics

description: Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is a powerful analytic tool of use in the physics, chemistry, and biology disciplines, yet the resource costs to buy, maintain, and use the spectrometer limit the tool's accessibility and the limited sensitivity and spectral resolution limit its application space. In recent years, Nitrogen Vacancy (NV) centers have emerged as an alternative NMR sensor due to their atomic-scale resolution and minimal resource costs. However, NV-NMR similarly suffers from limited sensitivity and spectral resolution due to the technical challenges associated with increasing the applied magnetic field. In this work, the sensitivity of an existing NV-NMR setup is characterized to determine the experimental modifications necessary for measurements at higher magnetic fields (>0.5 T). As a consequence of this characterization, a coplanar waveguide integrated with a microfluidic channel is designed. Finally, metabolomics, particularly spheroids, are reviewed for a potential high-impact NV-NMR application given historically relevant sample concentration sensitivities.

description: The present study seeks to determine how location-aware mobile dating and sex-seeking applications manipulate, complicate, contribute to or develop the landscape of the health information environment for queer men, specifically focusing on information around human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) and pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP). The study used purposive sampling to recruit 8 participants who are male, have sex with men, and use mobile phone applications that are marketed primarily to queer men (e.g. Grindr, Scruff, Jack’d). Within the sample of this study, health information sharing related to sexual health information needs, such as HIV status, PrEP usage, and current sexual health, seem to be normalized. Further, this information, which is easily accessible via categorical input fields on dating application profiles, is important for making decisions about interacting with individuals on applications. Finally, negotiating sex with other individuals on dating or sex-seeking applications leads to discussions involving the exchange of health information.

description: A laboratory hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (HXPS) system equipped with a monochromatic Cr K$α$ ($hν= 5414.7$ eV) X-ray source was applied to an investigation of the core-level electronic structure of La$_{1-x}$Sr$_x$MnO$_3$. No appreciable high binding-energy shoulder in the O $1s$ HXPS spectra were observed while an enhanced low binding-energy shoulder structure in the Mn $2p_{3/2}$ HXPS spectra were observed, both of which are manifestation of high bulk sensitivity. Such high bulk sensitivity enabled us to track the Mn $2p_{3/2}$ shoulder structure in the full range of $x$, giving us a new insight into the binding-energy shift of the Mn $2p_{3/2}$ core level. Comparisons with the results using the conventional laboratory XPS ($hν= 1486.6$ eV) as well as those using a synchrotron radiation source ($hν= 7939.9$ eV) demonstrate that HXPS is a powerful and convenient tool to analyze the bulk electronic structure of a host of different compounds.

title: The Unresolved Battles: A Qualitative Study Exploring the Lived Experiences of UK Military Veterans Incarcerated in Scotland
Creators: name: Rappoport, Jacqueline A. Karl
Publisher: name: Edinburgh Napier University
Year: 2023

description: Background: Military veterans represent a sizeable occupational group incarcerated in UK prisons. Research investigating why is predominately dominated by discourse around employment and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Theorising the collective experiences from an interdisciplinary and biographical approach, this PhD study furthers the debate on how pathways from military service to prison might be interrupted in the future.

Methods: Individual, semi-structured interviews were conducted with fifteen veterans incarcerated in Scotland, UK. Data were analysed using an analytically pluralistic approach utilising Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis and Thematic Analysis.

Findings: Themes of adverse childhood experiences, institutionalisation, transitions, and ‘failed’ identities helped to frame an understanding of the lived experiences of these veterans. Accounts of being unprepared for the transition both in and out of military service resulted in the participants challenging life histories becoming more so as a result of military service. This was especially true for those who joined prior to their eighteenth birthday. For most, the path to criminal offending was short; with weak support structures and newly formed failed military identities negatively influencing their transition back into civilian life.

Conclusion: The findings suggest that the Ministry of Defence should systematically look for, and address instances of pre-enlistment trauma prior to enlistment, especially for those who enlist prior to their eighteen birthday. This is suggested not a means to deter enlistment but to better prepare individuals with complex histories to the challenges that lay ahead in military service. As society is ill equipped to support these veterans in resolving the internal battles they contend with after service, better support should be provided when sudden exits are necessary and unprepared for.

description: Shock drift acceleration plays an important role in generating high-energy electrons at quasi-perpendicular shocks, but its efficiency in low beta plasmas is questionable. In this article, we perform a two-dimensional particle-in-cell simulation of a low-Mach-number low-plasma-beta quasi-perpendicular shock, and find that the electron cyclotron drift instability is unstable at the leading edge of the shock foot, which is excited by the relative drift between the shock-reflected ions and the incident electrons. The electrostatic waves triggered by the electron cyclotron drift instability can scatter and heat the incident electrons, which facilitates them to escape from the shock's loss cone. These electrons are then reflected by the shock and energized by shock drift acceleration. In this way, the acceleration efficiency of shock drift acceleration at low-plasma-beta quasi-perpendicular shocks is highly enhanced.
The Design of Secure Mobile Databases: An Evaluation of Alternative Secure Access Models

description: This research considers how mobile databases can be designed to be both secure and usable. A mobile database is one that is accessed and manipulated via mobile information devices over a wireless medium. A prototype mobile database was designed and then tested against secure access control models to determine if and how these models performed in securing a mobile database. The methodology in this research consisted of five steps. Initially, a preliminary analysis was done to delineate the environment the prototypical mobile database would be used in. Requirements definitions were established to gain a detailed understanding of the users and function of the database system. Conceptual database design was then employed to produce a database design model. In the physical database design step, the database was denormalized in order to reflect some unique computing requirements of the mobile environment. Finally, this mobile database design was tested against three secure access control models and observations made.

description: Low cost methods of antenna production primarily aim to reduce the cost of metalization. This might lead to a reduction in conductivity. A systematic study on the impact of conductivity is presented. The efficiency, gain and bandwidth of cylindrical wire meander line, dipole, and Yagi-Uda antennas were compared for materials with conductivities in the range $\mathrm{10^3}$ to $\mathrm{10^9}$ S/m. In this range, the absorption efficiency of both the dipole and meander line changed little, however the conductivity significantly impacts on radiation efficiency and the absorption cross section of the antennas. The extinction cross section of the dipole and meander line antennas (antennas that Thevenin equivalent circuit is applicable) also vary with radiation efficiency. From the point of radiation efficiency, the dipole antenna performance is most robust under decreasing conductivity. Antennas studied in this study were fabricated with brass and graphite. Radiation efficiency of the antennas were measured by improved Wheeler cap (IWC) method. Measurement results showed a reasonable agreement with simulations. We also measured the extinction cross section of the six fabricated prototypes.

description: The names of persons, families, and corporate bodies pose a particularly thorny problem for catalogers and other metadata specialists because they are simultaneously one of the most salient and most mutable pieces of metadata identifying a digital object. Despite continuing advances in distributed, web-based name authority control, this important work remains largely neglected by institutional repositories (IRs) in their efforts to archive the research outputs of their institution. This study aims to explore the possibilities surrounding name authority control in an IR context. Particularly, the study seeks to determine whether a linked data (or linked data-like) approach—in which Uniform Resource Identifiers (URIs) rather than name strings are stored for the authors of repository objects—is a feasible one for the Duke Digital Repository, and if specific steps can be outlined to provide a recommendation for implementing any such approach.

description: We study a class of three dimensional continuous phase coexistence models, and show that, under different symmetry assumptions on the potential, the large-scale behaviour of such models near a bifurcation point is described by the dynamical $Φ^p_3$ models for $p \in \{2,3,4\}$. This result is specific to space dimension $3$ and does not hold in dimension $2$.

description: Despite the heated debate over street literature - also known as "street lit," "urban fiction," "black fiction" and "hip-hop fiction" - the genre continues to offer immense appeal to adolescent readers. One popular and consistently argued point of contention is that street literature fails to provide quality texts for teen and young adult readers, although no research exists to concretely define quality in young adult texts. Using two sets of criteria that seek to characterize quality within the scope of young adult texts (as developed by experts and researchers in the study of young adult literature), this study presents evidence of demonstrated quality in eighteen popular street literature novels and discusses the vital need for the genre to be validated as a legitimate and worthwhile reading choice for adolescents.

description: In this paper, we propose a disordered heterostructure in which the distribution of refractive index of one of its constituents follows a Lévy-type distribution characterized by the exponent $α$. For the normal and oblique incidences, the effect of $α$ variation on the localization length is investigated in different frequency ranges. As a result, the controllability of Anderson localization can be achieved by changing the exponent $α$ in the disordered structure having heavy tailed distribution.

description: $\textit{Fake followers}$ are those Twitter accounts specifically created to inflate the number of followers of a target account. Fake followers are dangerous for the social platform and beyond, since they may alter concepts like popularity and influence in the Twittersphere - hence impacting on economy, politics, and society. In this paper, we contribute along different dimensions. First, we review some of the most relevant existing features and rules (proposed by Academia and Media) for anomalous Twitter accounts detection. Second, we create a baseline dataset of verified human and fake follower accounts. Such baseline dataset is publicly available to the scientific community. Then, we exploit the baseline dataset to train a set of machine-learning classifiers built over the reviewed rules and features. Our results show that most of the rules proposed by Media provide unsatisfactory performance in revealing fake followers, while features proposed in the past by Academia for spam detection provide good results. Building on the most promising features, we revise the classifiers both in terms of reduction of overfitting and cost for gathering the data needed to compute the features. The final result is a novel $\textit{Class A}$ classifier, general enough to thwart overfitting, lightweight thanks to the usage of the less costly features, and still able to correctly classify more than 95% of the accounts of the original training set. We ultimately perform an information fusion-based sensitivity analysis, to assess the global sensitivity of each of the features employed by the classifier. The findings reported in this paper, other than being supported by a thorough experimental methodology and interesting on their own, also pave the way for further investigation on the novel issue of fake Twitter followers.
