description: In order to describe texture and microstructure of a polycrystalline material completely, crystal orientation g={?1F?2} must be known in all points x={x1?x2?x3} of the material. This can be achieved by locationresolved diffraction of high-energy, i.e. short-wave, X-rays from synchrotron sources. Highest resolution in the orientation- as well as the location-coordinates can be achieved by three variants of a detector sweeping technique in which an area detector is continuously moved during exposure. This technique results in two-dimensionally continuous images which are sections and projections of the six-dimensional orientation location space. Further evaluation of these images depends on whether individual grains are resolved in them or not. Because of the high penetration depth of high-energy synchrotron radiation in matter, this technique is also, and particularly, suitable for the investigation of the interior of big samples.

description: Polarization is a growing, global problem. As such, many social media based solutions have been proposed in order to reduce it. In this study, we propose a new solution that recommends topics to celebrities to encourage them to join a polarized debate and increase exposure to contrarian content - bursting the filter bubble. Using a state-of-the art model that quantifies the degree of polarization, this paper makes a first attempt to empirically answer the question: Can celebrities burst filter bubbles? We use a case study to analyze how people react when celebrities are involved in a controversial topic and conclude with a list possible research directions.

description: ABSTRACT: Majority of mobile phone subscribers are able to receive both voice and alphanumeric text via Short Messaging Service (SMS) transmissions. Text messaging allows users to interact with each other in situations where voice calls are not appropriate or possible. Text messaging services are extremely popular with the telecommunications industry. Whereas voice traffic typically yields a fixed amount of revenue per user. There is tremendous potential for revenue. Seeing this, cellular providers have opened their networks to a number of additional services designed to increase SMS messaging volume. Through service provider website interfaces, email, and a wide variety of applications including instant messaging, users across the Internet can contact mobile subscribers without the use of a cell phone. This research is expected to come up with understanding the impact of mobile marketing on customer relationship management in the social distanced COVID era. The researcher would also try to find out whether SMS marketing, as solicited message, is an effective tool of E-Commerce business.

title: Flexibility in graduate careers: An exploratory study of the work careers of a sample of 1970 graduates
Creators: name: Lewis, Jennifer Mary
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1986

description: This thesis describes a three stage research project that explored flexibility in the career development of British graduates. Particular , attention was paid to people's subjective perceptions of their own flexibility. First, the rationale for the study is described, i. e. that the area was under researched yet new technology has created an urgent need for people to become more flexible in their careers. Then the Literature of occupational choice, career change and career development is reviewed and used to derive a typology of occupational change. The decision to use a mixture of research methods is defended. Next Stages One and Two, the Contact Survey and the Interviews, are described. 148 1970 graduates in science, techno Logy and engineering who had made voluntary occupational changes (a sub-sample from a national survey) were sent postal questionnaires, and 38 of these were subsequently I interviewed in depth about their work histories. A model was derived from the interview data of how flexibility in career development depends on a career anchor, or a set of values that a person gradually discovers that they will not give up when changing jobs. An anchor is idiosyncratic to the individual and cannot necessarily be predicted by an outsider examining work histories. It depends on experience and increasing self awareness. Stage Three involved testing some of the ideas arising from this model of a career anchor on a second sample of 1970 graduates. These respondents had recalled two of their earlier career decisions using computer programmes that elicited their values at those times. Comparisons between their earlier (pre-anchored) decisions and their Later (anchored) decisions showed support for the career anchors model. The findings and conclusions of the project are discussed in terms of five research questions: (1) How much change did they think their careers had undergone? (2) What form did any changes take? (3) Were these changes perceived as unusual in any way? (4) How far could people's views and experiences of flexibility be explained by existing psycho Logical theories about careers? (5) Any explanations of the ability to show flexibility in career development have implications for the careers counselling of adults; what would these implications be? It is concluded that the career anchors model shows promise as a supplement to existing theories of careers, and may be useful to careers counselors who deal with adults contemplating or undergoing career transitions.

description: Quantum technologies involving qubit measurements based on electronic interferometers rely critically on accurate single-particle emission. However, achieving precisely timed operations requires exquisite control of the single-particle sources in the time domain. Here, we demonstrate accurate control of the emission time statistics of a dynamic single-electron transistor by measuring the waiting times between emitted electrons. By ramping up the modulation frequency, we controllably drive the system through a crossover from adiabatic to nonadiabatic dynamics, which we visualize by measuring the temporal fluctuations at the single-electron level and explain using detailed theory. Our work paves the way for future technologies based on the ability to control, transmit, and detect single quanta of charge or heat in the form of electrons, photons, or phonons.

description: The effect of short-time and long-time annealing at 250C on the conductivity, hole density, and Curie temperature of GaMnAs single layers and GaMnAs/InGaMnAs heterostructures is studied by in-situ conductivity measurements as well as Raman and SQUID measurements before and after annealing. Whereas the conductivity monotonously increases with increasing annealing time, the hole density and the Curie temperature show a saturation after annealing for 30 minutes. The incorporation of thin InGaMnAs layers drastically enhances the Curie temperature of the GaMnAs layers.

Productivity Analysis

description: The production and quality of Valencia sp. peanuts were evaluated in a spacing trial of semi-systematic design involving treatments of all possible combinations of 3 intra-row spacing 5, 10, 15 cm and 3 row widths 30, 45, 60 cm. Reducing row widths proved more economical in the use of seed than increasing the seed rate per unit length of row. Special arrangement was more important than population per unit area in determining yield. The ratio of the dimensions of the inter-and intra-row should not be great for optimum utilization of the area's resource. Closes intra-row spacing than 15cm caused such severe compétition that mortality of seedlings increased and pod number per plant decreased, although the grade of nuts was not affected. A population of 215,000 per hectare spaced 30 χ 15 cm was optimal for Valencia.

description: The results of Point Contact Andreev Reflection Spectroscopy on polycrystalline RuSr$_2$GdCu$_2$O$_8$ pellets are presented. The wide variety of the measured spectra are all explained in terms of a modified BTK model considering a \emph{d-wave} symmetry of the superconducting order parameter. Remarkably low values of the energy gap $Δ=(2.8\pm 0.2)meV$ and of the $2Δ/k_BT_c\simeq 2$ ratio are inferred. From the temperature evolution of the $dI/dV$ vs $V$ characteristics we extract a sublinear temperature dependence of the superconducting energy gap. The magnetic field dependence of the conductance spectra at low temperatures is also reported. From the $Δ$ vs $H$ evolution, a critical magnetic field $H_{c_2}\simeq 30 T$ is inferred. To properly explain the curves showing gap-like features at higher voltages, we consider the formation of a Josephson junction in series with the Point Contact junction, as a consequence of the granularity of the sample.

description: Quantum entanglement and correlations in the spin-1 Heisenberg chain with single-ion anisotropy are investigated using the quantum renormalization group method. Negativity and quantum discord (QD) are calculated with various anisotropy parameters $\bigtriangleup$ and single-ion anisotropy parameters $D$. We focus on the relations between two abovementioned physical quantities and on transitions between the Néel, Haldane, and Large-D phases. It is found that both negativity and QD exhibit step-like patterns in different phases as the size of the system increases. Interestingly, the single-ion anisotropy parameter $D$, which can be modulated using nuclear electric resonance (2020 \textit{Nature} \textbf{579} 205), plays an important role in tuning the quantum phase transition (QPT) of the system. Both the first partial derivative of the negativity and quantum discord with respect to $D$ or $\bigtriangleup$ exhibit nonanalytic behavior at the phase transition points, which corresponds directly to the divergence of the correlation length. The quantum correlation critical exponents derived from negativity and QD are equal, and are the reciprocal of the correlation length exponent at each critical point. This work extends the application of quantum entanglement and correlations as tools for depicting QPTs in spin-1 systems.

description: We present a comprehensive analysis of branes in the Euclidean 2D black hole (cigar). In particular, exact boundary states and annulus amplitudes are provided for D0-branes which are localized at the tip of the cigar as well as for two families of extended D1 and D2-branes. Our results are based on closely related studies for the Euclidean AdS3 model and, as predicted by the conjectured duality between the 2D black hole and the sine-Liouville model, they share many features with branes in Liouville theory. New features arise here due to the presence of closed string modes which are localized near the tip of the cigar. The paper concludes with some remarks on possible applications.

Connecting Galaxy Evolution, Star Formation and the X-ray Background

description: As a result of deep hard X-ray observations by Chandra and XMM-Newton a significant fraction of the cosmic X-ray background (CXRB) has been resolved into individual sources. These objects are almost all active galactic nuclei (AGN) and optical followup observations find that they are mostly obscured Type 2 AGN, have Seyfert-like X-ray luminosities (i.e., L_X ~ 10^{43-44} ergs s^{-1}), and peak in redshift at z~0.7. Since this redshift is similar to the peak in the cosmic star-formation rate, this paper proposes that the obscuring material required for AGN unification is regulated by star-formation within the host galaxy. We test this idea by computing CXRB synthesis models with a ratio of Type 2/Type 1 AGN that is a function of both z and 2-10 keV X-ray luminosity, L_X. The evolutionary models are constrained by parameterizing the observed Type 1 AGN fractions from the recent work by Barger et al. The parameterization which simultaneously best accounts for Barger's data, the CXRB spectrum and the X-ray number counts has a local, low-L_X Type 2/Type 1 ratio of 4, and predicts a Type 2 AGN fraction which evolves as (1+z)^{0.3}. Models with no redshift evolution yielded much poorer fits to the Barger Type 1 AGN fractions. This particular evolution predicts a Type 2/Type 1 ratio of 1-2 for log L_X > 44, and thus the deep X-ray surveys are missing about half the obscured AGN with these luminosities. These objects are likely to be Compton thick. Overall, these calculations show that the current data strongly supports a change to the AGN unification scenario where the obscuration is connected with star formation in the host galaxy rather than a molecular torus alone. The evolution of the obscuration implies a close relationship between star formation and AGN fueling, most likely due to minor mergers or interactions.

title: Legal knowledge engineering: Computing, logic and law
Creators: name: Leith, Philip
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1986

description: The general problem approached in this thesis is that of building computer based legal advisory programs (otherwise known as expert systems or Intelligent Knowledge Based Systems). Such computer systems should be able to provide an individual with advice about either the general legal area being investigated, or advice about how the individual should proceed in a given case. In part the thesis describes a program (the ELl program) which attempts to confront some of the problems inherent in the building of these systems. The ELl system is seen as an experimental program (currently handling welfare rights legislation) and development vehicle. It is not presented as a final commercially implementable program. We present a detailed criticism of the type of legal knowledge contained within the system. The second, though in part intertwined, major subject of the thesis describes the jurisprudential aspects of the attempt to model the law by logic, a conjunction which is seen to be at the heart of the computer/law problem. We suggest that the conjunction offers very little to those who are interested in the real application of the real law, and that this is most forcefully seen when a working computer system models that conjunction. Our conclusion is that neither logic nor rule-based methods are sufficient for handling legal knowledge. The novelty and import of this thesis is not simply that it presents a negative conclusion; rather that it offers a sound theoretical and pragmatic framework for understanding why these methods are insufficient - the limits to the field are, in fact, defined.

description: Jets of collimated particles serve a multitude of purposes in high energy collisions. Recently, studies of jet interaction with the quark-gluon plasma (QGP) created in high energy heavy ion collisions are of growing interest, particularly towards understanding partonic energy loss in the QGP medium and its related modifications of the jet shower and fragmentation. Since the QGP is a colored medium, the extent of jet quenching and consequently, the transport properties of the medium are expected to be sensitive to fundamental properties of the jets such as the flavor of the parton that initiates the jet. Identifying the jet flavor enables an extraction of the mass dependence in jet-QGP interactions. We present a novel approach to tagging heavy-flavor jets at collider experiments utilizing the information contained within jet constituents via the \texttt{JetVLAD} model architecture. We show the performance of this model in proton-proton collisions at center of mass energy $\sqrt{s} = 200$ GeV as characterized by common metrics and showcase its ability to extract high purity heavy-flavor jet sample at various jet momenta and realistic production cross-sections including a brief discussion on the impact of out-of-time pile-up. Such studies open new opportunities for future high purity heavy-flavor measurements at jet energies accessible at current and future collider experiments.

description: We study the low frequency admittance of a quantum Hall bar of size much larger than the electronic coherence length. We find that this macroscopic conductor behaves as an ideal quantum conductor with vanishing longitudinal resistance and purely inductive behavior up to f<1MHz. Using several measurement configurations, we study the dependence of this inductance on the length of the edge channel and on the integer quantum Hall filling fraction. The experimental data are well described by a scattering model for edge magnetoplasmons taking into account effective long range Coulomb interactions within the sample. This demonstrates that the inductance's dependence on the filling fraction arises from the effective quantum inertia of charge carriers induced by Coulomb interactions within an ungated macroscopic quantum Hall bar.

description: Consider the state space model (X_t,Y_t), where (X_t) is a Markov chain, and (Y_t) are the observations. In order to solve the so-called filtering problem, one has to compute L(X_t|Y_1,...,Y_t), the law of X_t given the observations (Y_1,...,Y_t). The particle filtering method gives an approximation of the law L(X_t|Y_1,...,Y_t) by an empirical measure \frac{1}{n}\sum_1^nδ_{x_{i,t}}. In this paper we establish the moderate deviation principle for the empirical mean \frac{1}{n}\sum_1^nψ(x_{i,t}) (centered and properly rescaled) when the number of particles grows to infinity, enhancing the central limit theorem. Several extensions and examples are also studied.

description: In this letter, active control of near-field radiative heat transfer (NFRHT) between two isotropic materials is realized by a coating-twisting method. The two slabs are coated with graphene gratings, and then the NFRHT can be not only enhanced, but also weakened, by tuning the twisted angle between the two gratings. The physical mechanism is attributed to the modes coupled by the graphene gratings and the isotropic material, which can vary with the twisted angle. The proposed method is also applicable for other kinds of anisotropic films, and may provide a way to realize high-precision nanoscale thermal management, nimble thermal communications and thermal switch.

Mentoring and information and communication technologies (ICT) in teacher education : synthesizing research literature and research practice
Creators: name: Arntzen, Jenny

description: Concerns persist regarding the use of information and communication technologies (ICT) in education. How are teacher education programs providing for mentoring teacher candidates to use ICT? A review of literature shows that both instructors and teacher candidates need multiple forms of support to build ICT literacy. ICT literacy makes it possible for participants to build ICT fluency, which in turn makes ICT integration possible. It is possible mentoring could be part of a support strategy to make the transition from ICT under-use to ICT literacy. Mentoring is not easy to define. My purpose of engaging in this research was to investigate the phenomena of mentoring. I wanted to learn what needed to be considered when constructing a definition of mentoring. Through the process of this research I have developed a proposal for a mentoring program to support the acquisition of ICT literacy, toward building fluency and integration in teacher education. I used a dialogic process to systematically synthesize mentoring research literature data and experiential mentoring data to construct this proposal. The experiential data reported in this qualitative study was collected over two academic years 2005 - 2007 from a two-year elementary teacher education program. In the process of doing the research I developed theoretical perspectives to help me understand my experience. I learned that: 1) a universal definition of mentoring is not useful; 2) mentoring is a highly adaptable social learning phenomenon; 3) mentoring can support ICT use in educational contexts; and 4) there are specific institutional policies, programs, and curricula that can positively affect the success of a mentoring program. In the conclusion, I propose that an operational definition of mentoring should be based on foundational principles and values, well supported by the organization or institution. I further propose that an operational definition should be designed in response to situated, emergent, and authentic conditions.

REMARKS
 Chen (in Chen & Shi 1982: 123, pl. 4, figs 14-18) described a new species Bairdia ? mianyangensis from the latest Permian of Mianyang, Hubei, South China. Their specimens are incomplete carapaces but such characters as unusual DB of RV inclined frontward with strong overlap at DB and flattened AVB and PVB can be distinguished. The specimens recovered here resemble B. ? mianyangensis in lateral outline and the mentioned characters; however, our specimens are longer and the VB is less concave than those of B. ? mianyangensis.

title: Measurement of some radiative properties of solar absorber materials
Creators: name: De Silva, Ajit Amal
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1986

description: This work describes, (i) the designing and building of two sets of apparatus, namely a Liquid Nitrogen Cooled Ditectional Emissometer and a Laser-source Spectral Bidirectional Reflectometer (ii) measurements using the above apparatus on Solar selective absorber (Maxorb, Cusorb, Skysorb, Solarcoat- 100), non-selective absorber (Nextel, Solarcoat-50) and metal (Al, Cu and brass) samples. The emissometer incorporates liquid nitrogen cooling of the sample chamber thus reducing the error due to emission from the surroundings and extending the working range of sample temperature down to about 273 K. This instrument also uses a beam chopper with a phase sensitive detection system, and a Golay-cell detector. The overall error in the emittance values measured is estimated to be ± 5%. Using the emissometer all the samples in (ii) above were studied. The directional emittance behaviour of the metals and the non-selective absorbers agree well with theoretical predictions and with measurements made by other workers. In the case of the solar selective absorbers however, a peak in the directional emittance at 20°-30° reported by Hutchins (1979) is not seen in any of the present measurements. It is suggested that the ∈/∈'(0°) vs. ∈'(0°) plot can be used in comparing the emittance properties of solar selective absorbers with their substrate metals. The bidirectional reflectometer incorporates a novel device for mounting, positioning and orienting both the sample and the detector (Sample and Detector Assembly - SDA). The relatively small dimensions of this device compared with that of other bidirertional reflectometers reported makes it convenient to use and also allows it to be housed within a light-tight enclosure that minimizes problems with stray light. Extensive measurements have been made using laser sources at λ - 633 nm and λ - 1152 nm on the same set of samples of solar absorbers (selective and non-selective) studied with the emissometer. Comparison of the bidirectional reflectance characteristics of the solar selective absorbers shows marked differences between the materials. However certain features common to 'specularly' reflecting materials and others common to 'diffusely' reflecting materials have been identified. Materials like Cusorb and Solarcoat-100 show a combination of these. Some of these features are discussed in terms of the surface microstructure data obtained using a scanning electron microscope and a conventional stylus type instrument.
Detection of gravitational waves by light perturbation

description: Light undergoes perturbation as gravitational waves pass by. This is shown by solving Maxwell's equations in a spacetime with gravitational waves; a solution exhibits a perturbation due to gravitational waves. We determine the perturbation for a general case of both light and gravitational waves propagating in arbitrary directions. It is also shown that a perturbation of light due to gravitational waves leads to a delay of the photon transit time, which implies an equivalence between the perturbation analysis of Maxwell's equations and the null geodesic analysis for photon propagation. We present an example of application of this principle with regard to the detection of gravitational waves via a pulsar timing array, wherein our perturbation analysis for the general case is employed to show how the detector response varies with the incident angle of a light pulse with respect to the detector.

 The specimens attributed to Bairdia cf. bassoni Crasquin, 2010 are characterized by regularly arched DB, maximal H located at mid L, and both ends compressed laterally; however, AB and PB are smaller than those of B. bassoni Crasquin, 2010 (Crasquin et al. 2010a) from the latest Permian of Meishan section, Eastern China. The overlap at DB in our specimens is stronger.

description: We present results on charged particle production at very low transverse momenta in the 15% most central Au+Au collisions at sqrt(s_NN) = 200 GeV obtained with the PHOBOS detector at RHIC. The invariant yields were measured at mid-rapidity in the transverse momentum ranges from 30 to 50 MeV/c for charged pions, 90 to 130 MeV/c for charged kaons and 140 to 210 MeV/c for protons and antiprotons. No significant enhancement in low transverse momentum particle production is observed as compared to extrapolations of identified particle spectra measured at an intermediate pT range. The spectra tend to flatten at low pT, consistent with the expectations of transverse expansion of the system.

description: A Sidon set is a set A of integers such that no integer has two essentially distinct representations as the sum of two elements of A. More generally, for every positive integer g, a B_2[g]-set is a set A of integers such that no integer has more than g essentially distinct representations as the sum of two elements of A. It is proved that almost all small sumsets of {1,2,...,n} are B_2[g]-sets, in the sense that if B_2[g](k,n) denotes the number of B_2[g]-sets of cardinality k contained in the interval {1,2,...,n}, then lim_{n\to\infty} B_2[g](k,n)/\binom{n}{k} = 1 if k = o(n^{g/(2g+2)}).

description: We present results from an instrument combining surface acoustic wave (SAW) propagation and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) measurements. The objective is to use two independent methods, the former based on adsorbed mass change measurements and the latter on surface dielectric properties variations, to identify physical properties of protein layers, and more specifically their water content. We display mass sensitivity calibration curves using electrodeposition of copper leading to a sensitivity in liquid of 150$\pm15$ $cm^2/g$ for the Love mode device used here, and the application to monitoring biological processes. The extraction of protein layer thickness and protein to water content ratio is also presented for S-layer proteins under investigation. We obtain respectively 4.7$\pm$0.7 nm and 75$\pm$15%.
