description: Radiation emitted by nonthermal particles accelerated during relativistic magnetic reconnection is critical for understanding the nonthermal emission in a variety of astrophysical systems, including blazar jets, black hole coronae, pulsars, and magnetars. By means of fully kinetic Particle-in-Cell (PIC) simulations, we demonstrate that reconnection-driven particle acceleration imprints an energy-dependent pitch-angle anisotropy and gives rise to broken power laws in both the particle energy spectrum and the pitch-angle anisotropy. The particle distributions depend on the relative strength of the non-reconnecting (guide field) versus the reconnecting component of the magnetic field ($B_g/B_0$) and the lepton magnetization ($σ_0$). Below the break Lorentz factor $γ_0$ (injection), the particle energy spectrum is ultra-hard ($p_< < 1$), while above $γ_0$, the spectral index $p_>$ is highly sensitive to $B_g/B_0$. Particles' velocities align with the magnetic field, reaching minimum pitch angles $α$ at a Lorentz factor $γ_{\min α}$ controlled by $B_g/B_0$ and $σ_0$. The energy-dependent pitch-angle anisotropy, evaluated through the mean of $\sin^2 α$ of particles at a given energy, exhibits power-law ranges with negative ($m_<$) and positive ($m_>$) slopes below and above $γ_{\min α}$, becoming steeper as $B_g/B_0$ increases. The generation of anisotropic pitch angle distributions has important astrophysical implications. We address their effects on regulating synchrotron luminosity, spectral energy distribution, polarization, particle cooling, the synchrotron burnoff limit, emission beaming, and temperature anisotropy.

Construction of LR(k) parsers with application to Algol 68
Creators: name: Ramer, David Robert
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The purpose of this thesis is to report on the study, implementation arad use of the LR (k) parsing technique with error recovery as applied to the computer programming language ALGOL 68. The LR (k) parsing technique is a powerful method of automatic construction of parsers for context free grammars. The methodology provided by De Remer is implemented for all classes of LR (k) grammars. The practical implementation of the translator limits k to 15. The necessity of having error recovery for any parsing technique cannot be overstated. An error recovery technique is provided and demonstrated for ALGOL 68. This technique uses the parsing translator to aid in the decision process to determine the transformation from a string of symbols not in the language, to a string of symbols in the language. The LR (k) parsing technique and the error recovery technique are applied to ALGOL 68 and prove to be practical techniques in the construction of compilers for computer programming languages.

description: We study theoretically the exchange of angular momentum between electromagnetic and electrostatic waves in a plasma, due to the stimulated Raman and Brillouin backscattering processes. Angular momentum states for plasmon and phonon fields are introduced for the first time. We demonstrate that these states can be excited by nonlinear wave mixing, associated with the scattering processes. This could be relevant for plasma diagnostics, both in laboratory and in space. Nonlinearly coupled paraxial equations and instability growth rates are derived.

description: Algal bioassay experiments were conducted on water from Pines Lake and Pompton Lake, Passaic County, New Jersey. For both lakes phosphorus stimulated growth of the test alga, Selenastrum capricornutum, whereas single additions of nitrogen had no effect. The results showed that phytoplankton productivity in Pines Lake was limited by availability of P and further confirmed an earlier conclusion (U.S. EPA, 1976) of P limitation in Pompton Lake. Timely assessments of nutrient availability in New Jersey lakes could be useful in estimating rates of eutrophication and as predictive bases for lake management.

description: Representation learning stands as one of the critical machine learning techniques across various domains. Through the acquisition of high-quality features, pre-trained embeddings significantly reduce input space redundancy, benefiting downstream pattern recognition tasks such as classification, regression, or detection. Nonetheless, in the domain of tabular data, feature engineering and selection still heavily rely on manual intervention, leading to time-consuming processes and necessitating domain expertise. In response to this challenge, we introduce ReConTab, a deep automatic representation learning framework with regularized contrastive learning. Agnostic to any type of modeling task, ReConTab constructs an asymmetric autoencoder based on the same raw features from model inputs, producing low-dimensional representative embeddings. Specifically, regularization techniques are applied for raw feature selection. Meanwhile, ReConTab leverages contrastive learning to distill the most pertinent information for downstream tasks. Experiments conducted on extensive real-world datasets substantiate the framework's capacity to yield substantial and robust performance improvements. Furthermore, we empirically demonstrate that pre-trained embeddings can seamlessly integrate as easily adaptable features, enhancing the performance of various traditional methods such as XGBoost and Random Forest.

description: We propose that an excitonic gap can be generated along nodal directions by Coulomb interaction in the mixed state of d-wave cuprate superconductors. In a superconductor, the Coulomb interaction usually can not generate any fermion gap since its strength is weakened by superfluidity. It becomes stronger as superfluid density is suppressed by external magnetic field, and is able to generate a gap for initially gapless nodal quasiparticles beyond some critical field $H_{c}$. By solving the gap equation, it is found that the nodal gap increases with growing field $H$, which leads to a suppression of thermal conductivity at zero temperature. This mechanism naturally produces the field-induced thermal metal-insulator transition observed in transport experiments.

description: In this paper, we study the spatiotemporal distribution of the photon electric field produced by the scattering of a single photon narrow pulse from a system of two identical qubits coupled to continuum modes in a one-dimensional (1D) open waveguide. We derive the time-dependent dynamical equations for qubits' and photon amplitudes which allow the calculation of the photon backward and forward scattering fields in the whole space: before qubits, between qubits, and behind the qubits. The scattered field consists of several contributions that describe a free field of incoming photon, a spontaneous exponential decay of excited qubits, a slowly decaying part that dies out as the inverse powers of $t$, and a lossless part that represents a steady state solution as $t\rightarrow\infty$. For our system, we find the transmittance and reflectance fields as both time and distance from the qubits tend to infinity. We show that as the time after the event of scattering tends to infinity, the steady state photon the field is being formed in the whole one-dimensional space. If the distance $d$ between qubits is equal to the integer of the wavelength $λ$, the field energy exhibits temporal beatings between the qubit frequency $Ω$ and the photon frequency $ω_S$ with the period $T=2π/(ω_S-Ω)$.

description: The beamed radio emission from relativistic plasma (particles or bunches), constrained to move along the curved trajectories, occurs in the direction of velocity. We have generalized the coherent curvature radiation model to include the detailed geometry of the emission region in pulsar magnetosphere, and deduced the polarization state in terms of Stokes parameters. By considering both the uniform and modulated emissions, we have simulated a few typical pulse profiles. The antisymmetric type of circular polarization survives only when there is modulation or discrete distribution in the emitting sources. Our model predicts a correlation between the polarization angle swing and sign reversal of circular polarization as a geometric property of the emission process.

Operator identification in Algol 68
Creators: name: Kwan, Ying
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The special feature that modes and operators can be defined by the user of ALGOL 68 has induced the problems of coercion, balancing and operator identification. This work deals with the mode manipulation and operator identification in ALGOL 68. The algorithms are based on those of [Z]. Some of the revisions to the ALGOL 68 Report concerning modes, such as no proceduring, the void symbol, the definition of NONPROC, the definition of a vacuum, and the hipping of a vacuum are included. The program in ALGOL W is based on that of [P]. The program described in this thesis does four main jobs: mode eguivalencing, mode coercion, mode balancing and operator identification. In mode eguivalencing, it checks the context conditions concerning "showing" [R.4.4.4] and the multiple occurrence of the same field selector in a structure [R.4.4.3e], and checks related modes in unions [ B.4.4.3b,d]. In mode coercion, it determines the coercion steps. This is also a basic part of mode balancing and operator identification. In balancing, it also considers collateral displays. This is a model for the operator identification part of an ALGOL 68 compiler. I am deeply indebted to Professor J. E. L. Peck for initiating my study of ALGOL 68 and ALGOL W, for suggesting the topic of this thesis and for rendering invaluable assistance, encouragement and patience throughout the course of my work. I would like to thank the group which is working under Dr. Peck for the ALGOL 68 implementation, Dr. W. J. Hansen and especially Dr. M. Zosel for many helpful suggestions and discussions. I gratefully acknowledge the financial support of NRC.
Humean Supervenience in the Light of Contemporary Science

description: It is shown that Lewis' ontological doctrine of Humean supervenience incorporates at its foundation the so-called separability principle of classical physics. In view of the systematic violation of the latter within quantum mechanics, the claim that contemporary physical science may posit non-supervenient relations beyond the spatiotemporal ones is reinforced on a foundational basis concerning constraints on the state-representation of physical systems. Depending on the mode of assignment of states to physical systems, unit state vectors versus statistical density operators, we distinguish between strongly and weakly non-Humean, non-supervenient relations. It is demonstrated that in either case the relations of quantum entanglement constitute prototypical examples of irreducible physical relations that do not supervene upon a spatiotemporal arrangement of Humean qualities, weakening, thereby, the thesis of Humean supervenience. It is examined, in this respect, the status of Lewis' recombination principle, whereas his conception of lawhood is critically investigated. It is concluded that the assumption of ontological reductionism, as expressed in Lewis' Humean doctrine, cannot be regarded as a reliable code of the nature of the physical world and its contents. It is proposed instead that, due to the undeniable existence of non-supervenient relations, a metaphysic of relations of a moderate kind ought to be acknowledged as an indispensable part of our understanding of the natural world at a fundamental level.

description: Core-collapse supernovae (SNe) are one of the most powerful cosmic sources of neutrinos, with energies of several MeV. The emission of neutrinos and antineutrinos of all flavors carries away the gravitational binding energy of the compact remnant and drives its evolution from the hot initial to the cold final states. Detecting these neutrinos from Earth and analyzing the emitted signals present a unique opportunity to explore the neutrino mass ordering problem. This research outlines the detection of neutrinos from SNe and their relevance in understanding the neutrino mass ordering. The focus is on developing a model-independent analysis strategy, achieved by comparing distinct detection channels in large underground detectors. The objective is to identify potential indicators of mass ordering within the neutrino sector. Additionally, a thorough statistical analysis is performed on the anticipated neutrino signals for both mass orderings. Despite uncertainties in supernova explosion parameters, an exploration of the parameter space reveals an extensive array of models with significant sensitivity to differentiate between mass orderings. The assessment of various observables and their combinations underscores the potential of forthcoming supernova observations in addressing the neutrino mass ordering problem.

description: Accretion onto black holes is one of the most efficient energy source in the Universe. Black hole accretion powers some of the most luminous objects in the universe, including quasars, active galactic nuclei, tidal disruption events, gamma-ray bursts, and black hole X-ray transients. In the present review, we give an astrophysical overview of black hole accretion processes, with a particular focus on black hole X-ray binary systems. In Section 1, we briefly introduce the basic paradigms of black hole accretion. Physics related to accretion onto black holes are introduced in Section 2. Models proposed for black hole accretion are discussed in this section, from the Shakura-Sunyaev thin disk accretion to the advective-dominated accretion flow. Observational signatures that make contact to stellar-mass black hole accretion are introduced in Section 3, including the spectral and fast variability properties. A short conclusion is given in Section 4.

description: This resource is a single blog post created as part of the Day of Archaeology initiative. The Day of Archaeology project aimed to provide a window into the daily lives of archaeologists from all over the world. The project asked people working, studying or volunteering in the archaeological world to participate in a 'Day of Archaeology' each year by recording their day and sharing it through text, images or video on the Day of Archaeology blog.brThe project asked anyone with a personal, professional or voluntary interest in archaeology to get involved, and help highlight the reasons why archaeology is vital to protect the past and inform our futures. The resulting Day of Archaeology project archive demonstrates the wide variety of work the archaeological profession undertakes day-to-day across the globe, and helps to raise public awareness of the relevance and importance of archaeology to the modern world.brThe first ever Day of Archaeology was held in 2011 and, since then, the project had thousands of archaeologists take part in the event, from those working in the field through to specialists working in laboratories and behind computers. The last Day of Archaeology was on Friday 28th July 2017.
On the efficiency of clique detection in graphs
Creators: name: Dixon, Anthony Hunter
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This thesis examines the devices employed by various algorithms to search for maximal complete subgraphs in graphs. Also known as cliques, in Chapter 1 these subgraphs are seen to play an important role in graph theory, information retrieval, Sociometry, logic design, and computational complexity. The enumeration of cliques using the Harary-Rcss, Bonner, Peay, and Bron-Kerbosch algorithms is discussed in Chapter 2. The Reduced Redundancy algorithm is introduced, and the performance of the five procedures is assessed using an alternative approach to empirical testing. Each of the algorithms is shown to generate a "derivation tree" for a given graph whose size can be used as a measure of its efficiency. In Chapter 3, the possibility of exploiting vertex similarity is examined with a view to reducing the size of the derivation tree. As a consequence, algorithms are proposed for finding non-similar cliques. The concept of "complete subgraph equivalence" of vertices is introduced to develop a means for expressing the cliques of a graph as the Cartesian product of vertex subsets. An algorithm for detecting the existence of a clique of order k in a certain class of k-partite graphs in polynomial time is proposed in Chapter 4. This class consists of all graphs reducible by the algorithm to k-partite graphs having at most two vertices per block of degree greater than 0. This algorithm is shown to provide an efficient heuristic which can be used in a procedure for determining whether a well-formed formula is a tautology. The thesis is concluded with an empirical analysis of the techniques employed by the enumeration algorithms of Chapter 2. In addition, the efficiency of the Clique Detection algorithm is compared with that of the Reduced Redundancy algorithm.
The influence on food safety of technological developments in the commercial manufacture of shelf-stable and refrigerator-stable heat-processed foods

description: Several techniques were adopted to evaluate the influence on food safety of technological developments in the commercial manufacture of shelf-stable and refrigerator- stable heat-processed foods and these were as follows: 1. Development and assessment of a predictive model (known as DWC's Method) for calculating process lethality across a range of processing conditions. After analysis of data from 15 different heat penetration trials conducted in commercial manufacturing plants it was found that DWC's Method computed F values with errors of between -6 and +4% of the theoretical values calculated with an internationally accredited reference model (FMC's NumeriCal), whereas the model that is used extensively by manufacturers and regulators in Australia and New Zealand produced average errors of between -27 and -40% of the theoretical values calculated with NumeriCal. 2. Determination of the adequacy of thermal processes in commercially manufactured refrigerator-stable heat-processed foods (known as refrigerated pasteurised foods of extended durability or REPFEDs) and comparison of Fp values received in these processes with those recommended in Good Manufacturing Practice (GMP) guidelines. Of 16 thermal processes that were considered 11 (69%) satisfied GMP while, in five instances (31 %), the thermal processes failed to deliver minimum Fp requirements and, in three of these cases, safety would have been compromised. 3. Evaluation of the adequacy of thermal processes used in commercially manufactured shelf-stable foods and comparison of F0 values received in these processes with those recommended in GMP guidelines. Of 32 thermal processes reviewed, 25 (78%) had F0 values~ 2.4 min which satisfied GMP, while in seven instances (22%) the F0 values were< 2.4 min and were insufficient for safety. 4. Development and evaluation of microbiological challenge techniques (known as Biotests) to assess the ability of hermetic seals to prevent post-process leaker contamination (PPLC) in metal cans, glass containers and barrier plastic trays and pouches used in commercial manufacture of shelf-stable foods. 5. Development of a software package (known as DWC Analyser) to evaluate data gathered during heat distribution studies in retorting systems. 6. Evaluation of the performance of 16 commercial retorting systems in terms of compliance with GMP guidelines issued by international processing and regulatory authorities. It was found that three systems (19%) complied with the United States Food and Drug Administration requirements (Anon., 2002), which were the strictest of all the guidelines considered; five (31%) complied with guidelines recommended by May (1997a), Smout and May (1997) and the writer, and eight (50%) of the retorts failed to comply with any recognised GMP guidelines.

description: The paper introduces the notion of the size of countable sets that preserves the Part-Whole Principle and generalizes the notion of the cardinality of finite sets. The sizes of natural numbers, integers, rational numbers, and all their subsets, unions, and Cartesian products are algorithmically enumerable up to one element as sequences of natural numbers. The method is similar to that of Theory of Numerosities of Benci and Di Nasso 2019) but in comparison, it is motivated by Bolzano's concept of infinite series from his Paradoxes of the Infinite, it is constructive because it does not use ultrafilters, and set sizes are uniquely determined. The results mostly agree with those of Theory of Numerosities, but some differ, such as the size of rational numbers. However, set sizes are just partially and not linearly ordered. \emph{Quid pro quo.}

description: In this paper we describe in detail the implementation and main properties of a new inversion code for the polarized radiative transfer equation (VFISV: Very Fast inversion of the Stokes vector). VFISV will routinely analyze pipeline data from the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) on-board of the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO). It will provide full-disk maps (4096$\times$4096 pixels) of the magnetic field vector on the Solar Photosphere every 10 minutes. For this reason VFISV is optimized to achieve an inversion speed that will allow it to invert 16 million pixels every 10 minutes with a modest number (approx. 50) of CPUs. Here we focus on describing a number of important details, simplifications and tweaks that have allowed us to significantly speed up the inversion process. We also give details on tests performed with data from the spectropolarimeter on-board of the Hinode spacecraft.
