description: This paper analyzes variation in Russian support for far-right organizations, which has increased since the return of Vladimir Putin to the Russian presidency in 2012. Building on previous research into state sponsorship of terrorist groups and support for political movements across state borders, this study seeks to determine how a state may select which groups to sponsor or support. This paper consists of a comparative case study of Russian support for two terrorist organizations––The Base and the Russian Imperial Movement––and two political parties––the Northern League in Italy and the National Rally in France.  My analysis finds that ideology is a key differentiating factor in motivating support for terrorist organizations, while propensity to succeed is a differentiating factor for political parties. This study seeks to determine how these organizations are able to operate in order to diminish the harm they are able to inflict on minority groups in their regions of operation.

description: In 2017 and 2018, the federal government in Brazil enacted two substantial standards-based reforms, prompting states to create curricula based on the federal educational standards. This exploratory paper uses a novel computational sampling method, targeted sampling, to examine depictions of equity in postsecondary preparation in the newly published high school curricula from 17 states in Brazil and its Federal District. I discuss the findings in line with the literature on equitable access to post-secondary opportunities. I find that states’ high school curricula in Brazil rely heavily on legal documents and federal standards, providing few original discussions on pedagogical guidelines and support systems for equitable post-secondary preparation. Contrary to prevalent governmental discourse, I conclude that the reforms are unlikely to be drivers of equity. Future policy considerations are discussed.
Revisiting the role of long-term potentiation in learning and memory

description: A central function of the nervous system is its ability to enable an animal to learn, defined as the process by which an animal’s behavior changes in response to experience. Long term potentiation (LTP) is a candidate mechanism for learning and memory in the nervous system because LTP, as a form of synaptic plasticity, has the hallmarks expected for a cellular process that enables an animal to learn. Prior studies have established strong correlations between LTP in the hippocampus, a critical center for learning and memory, and spatial learning in rodents. However, causally linking LTP with learning has proven to be difficult. The present study aims to test the relationship between LTP and learning and memory using a novel mouse line with a conditional knock-out (cKO) of Stx3. The Stx3 gene encodes a SNARE protein that was shown in prior studies to be essential for LTP. The mouse line used deletes Stx3 conditionally in excitatory forebrain neurons by crossing Stx3 cKO mice with CamKIIa-Cre driver mice (CamKIIa-Cre;Syntaxin-3fl/fl). Thus, the goal of the present study is to answer the question: Is LTP necessary for learning and memory? To determine the ability of Stx3 cKO mice to perform learning and memory tasks, this study uses spatial and associative learning behavioral assays. Additionally, to confirm that cKO of Stx3 does not have negative effects on neuronal health, this study quantitatively evaluates neuronal morphology. Analyses of neuronal morphology indicate that the cKO of Stx3 did not cause major effects on the architecture of the brain or the morphology of neurons. Furthermore, results from behavioral assays show that Stx3 cKO mice can perform learning and memory tasks similarly to wild-type mice, with no significant differences between the two groups. These findings suggest that LTP may not be necessary for learning and memory in mice. This disrupts the long-standing hypothesis that LTP is causally linked to learning and memory, indicating that another mechanism may be responsible. This work will contribute to our understanding of how the brain learns and offers the first step towards finding solutions for disorders of learning and memory.

description: The People Republic of China’s 2020 “14th Five Year Plan” – the cornerstone for Chinese national defense posture and economic planning – is the first guiding document to highlight the strategic importance of biotechnology in China’s history. Yet there has been very little awareness or response among U.S. policymakers and experts to the Chinese military’s rapidly evolving biotechnology programs. This thesis is the first study to comprehensively evaluate the scope and status of the People’s Liberation Army’s (PLA) biotechnology capabilities, ranging from emerging biotechnologies to advanced tools already deployed from the Chinese arsenal. To understand the evolution of the PLA’s biotechnology programs and milestones, this thesis collected an original dataset of over 500 open-source Chinese language documents, ranging from Chinese Communist Party (CCP) white papers to Chinese military scientific journals and Chinese news publications. Through two case studies – an investigation of the PLA’s brain-computer interface capabilities and a study of China’s large-scale genomic sequencing programs – this thesis examines the PLA’s strategies for developing and deploying biotechnologies at scale. This analysis first concludes that late-stage partnerships between commercial Chinese biotechnology organizations and military research groups have been an effective avenue for the Chinese military to pursue rapid development of militarized biotechnology. Second, the CCP’s efforts to concentrate technological capabilities under centralized umbrella organizations have proven to be an efficient strategy for deployment. By more fully understanding the PLA’s biotechnology capabilities and deployment strategies, U.S. policymakers and research institutions can work together to better respond to this growing national security risk.

description: This study analyzes how Brazilian 9th grade public school students’ intersecting identities—race, gender, and socioeconomic status (SES)—relate to their outcomes in assessment tests. Recognizing the overlap of different marginalized identities that individuals carry, this study considers their combined relationship with outcomes rather than looking at just one identity on its own. Using descriptive analysis and two different Ordinary Least Square (OLS) models, I found that accounting within SES categories and region of origin, black students have the weakest outcomes and white students have the best.

description: The kicked Ising model with both a pulsed transverse and a continuous longitudinal field is studied numerically. Starting from a large transverse field and a state that is nearly an eigenstate, the pulsed transverse field is quenched with a simultaneous enhancement of the longitudinal field. The generation of multipartite entanglement is observed along with a phenomenon akin to quantum resonance when the entanglement does not evolve for certain values of the pulse duration. Away from the resonance, the longitudinal field can drive the entanglement to near maximum values that is shown to agree well with those of random states. Further evidence is presented that the time evolved states obtained do have some statistical properties of such random states. For contrast the case when the fields have a steady value is also discussed.

description: We report state-of-the-art atomistic simulations combined with high-fidelity conductance calculations to probe structure-conductance relationships in Au-benzenedithiolate(BDT)-Au junctions under elongation. Our results demonstrate that large increases in conductance are associated with the formation of monatomic chains (MACs) of Au atoms directly connected to BDT. An analysis of the electronic structure of the simulated junctions reveals that enhancement in the s-like states in Au MACs causes the increases in conductance. Other structures also result in increased conductance but are too short-lived to be detected in experiment, while MACs remain stable for long simulation times. Examinations of thermally evolved junctions with and without MACs show negligible overlap between conductance histograms, indicating that the increase in conductance is related to this unique structural change and not thermal fluctuation. These results, which provide an excellent explanation for a recently observed anomalous experimental result [Bruot et al., Nature Nanotech., 2012, 7, 35-40], should aid in the development of mechanically responsive molecular electronic devices.

description: We analyze the magnetic activity of 59,318 M dwarfs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 7. This analysis explores the spatial distribution of M dwarf activity as a function of both vertical distance from the Galactic plane (Z) and planar distance from the Galactic center (R). We confirm the established trends of decreasing magnetic activity (as measured by H-alpha emission) with increasing distance from the mid-plane of the disk and find evidence for a trend in Galactocentric radius. We measure a non-zero radial gradient in the activity fraction in our analysis of stars with spectral types dM3 and dM4. The activity fraction increases with R and can be explained by a decreasing mean stellar age with increasing distance from the Galactic center.

Evaluating Regime Shifts and Shifting Environmental Policy in the  Arkansas River near Larned, KS

description: Characterizing the drivers of flow in non-perennial streams is increasingly important for understanding the impacts of variable flow regimes on local communities and ecosystems. Regime-shift theory has been used to explain changes in other hydrologic systems, but non-perennial streams have yet to be fully explored. Here, the Arkansas River Basin near Larned, KS serves as a place-based case study to determine if changes between flow and no-flow conditions can be described using a regime-shift framework. This thesis combines hydrological, meteorological, and ecological time-series data to test for the presence of statistical early-warning signs commonly associated with regime shifting systems and used a sequential t-test analysis of regime shifts (STARS) algorithm to test for regime shifts in the time series of weekly and monthly no-flow days. While flow data exhibit hints like critical slowing down and asymmetry in flow rates, evidence for increases in both variance and autocorrelation signatures in surface water data level was weak. STARS identified at least five shifts between dry, intermediate, and wet regimes between 1998 and 2021, which are characterized by predominantly no-flow conditions, alternating flowing and no-flow conditions, and predominantly flowing conditions in the river, respectively. The intermediate regime appears to be a transitory phase between the stable wet and dry regimes observed at Larned. Regime shifts at the site are likely driven by a complex interaction between climate, pumping, local vegetation, and stream-aquifer interactions. Recent proposals to federal water policy, including the redefinition of “waters of the United States,” do not alter future protections for the Arkansas River as a navigable waterway. However, evidence of negative feedback loops that enforce no-flow conditions at the Larned site indicates that policy should refrain from excluding non-perennial stream systems from federal protection, especially those of low and ephemeral flow patterns.

The distance between individual fibrils could be scaled down to 1 micrometer at 300 mm/h pulling. LiF-LiYF4 has stronger tendency to form facetted eutectic colonies than LiF-LiGdF4, explained by the larger entropy of melting of the former.

description: Little is known about the causal relationship between teacher job satisfaction and student learning in low-and-middle income country contexts. This study analyzes the effect of teacher job satisfaction on students’ academic achievement in China, a middle-income country. The study uses data from the China Education Panel Survey 2014 and employs a cross-subject student fixed effect model. The main results show that teacher job satisfaction significantly increases students’ academic achievement by 0.361 standard deviations (p < 0.01). The effect is more pronounced for rural, economically disadvantaged, and migrant students. Policy implications are discussed.

description: Under a changing climate, the marine life in the global ocean is facing a variety of stressors. Hypoxia (low oxygen conditions), warming, and acidification are of particular concern. While studies have examined the effects of these various stressors, little research has explored synergistic effects of multiple stressors and the role of physiological parameters on invertebrate biogeography. Here, I calculate the metabolic index, an ecophsyiological framework that incorporates both temperature and oxygen in order to understand how an organism’s environment affects its phenology and biogeography. Employing machine learning techniques, naïve Bayes and full Bayes models, I investigate the relative capacity of various environmental parameters–temperature, oxygen, metabolic index (phi), salinity, and pH–for predicting the occurrence of Kellet’s whelk (Kelletia kelletii) and white urchin (Lytechinus pictus) in the Southern California Bight. Although Kellet’s whelk occurrence data was too sparse for machine learning techniques to produce viable results, Bayesian models did indeed produce predictive results for white urchin analysis. I ultimately find that although there seems to be no single environmental parameter that wholly accounts for marine invertebrate occurrence, full Bayes models indicate that oxygen leads as the dominant parameter with the highest predictive power for white urchin in the study area. This finding agrees with existing literature on the importance of oxygen in predicting biogeographic distribution in marine environments. Ultimately, these results contribute to a growing body of research indicating hypoxia is a major threat to marine ecosystems and highlight the need for expanded policy efforts to mitigate greenhouse gas emissions driving oxygen depletion in global oceans.

description: The review considers the peculiarities of symmetry breaking and symmetry transformations and the related physical effects in finite quantum systems. Some types of symmetry in finite systems can be broken only asymptotically. However, with a sufficiently large number of particles, crossover transitions become sharp, so that symmetry breaking happens similarly to that in macroscopic systems. This concerns, in particular, global gauge symmetry breaking, related to Bose-Einstein condensation and superconductivity, or isotropy breaking, related to the generation of quantum vortices, and the stratification in multicomponent mixtures. A special type of symmetry transformation, characteristic only for finite systems, is the change of shape symmetry. These phenomena are illustrated by the examples of several typical mesoscopic systems, such as trapped atoms, quantum dots, atomic nuclei, and metallic grains. The specific features of the review are: (i) the emphasis on the peculiarities of the symmetry breaking in finite mesoscopic systems; (ii) the analysis of common properties of physically different finite quantum systems; (iii) the manifestations of symmetry breaking in the spectra of collective excitations in finite quantum systems. The analysis of these features allows for the better understanding of the intimate relation between the type of symmetry and other physical properties of quantum systems. This also makes it possible to predict new effects by employing the analogies between finite quantum systems of different physical nature.

description: This thesis explores the youth in the Panjabi Sikh diaspora and the ways in which they understand themselves, form community, and delineate their boundaries on the basis of language, performance, and history. The research particularly focuses on the practice of language along with the soundscapes of religious and cultural spaces, in order to interrogate Panjabi Sikh diasporic identity formulation through an auditory lens in an effort to see the ways that this new way of attending to identity can complicate the idea of what it means to be a young person within these communities. The thesis revolves around two key questions: (1) how do Panjabi Sikh youth in the diaspora come to define their identities and the community’s bounds, and (2) what are the key landscapes through the youth of the Panjabi Sikh community relate to histories and heritages in order to help define themselves? These questions of definition centrally circle one key theoretical question of how the excavation of auditory landscapes allows the ethnographer to better interrogate the formation of identity, the creation of community, and the making of meaning by youth in the Panjabi Sikh diaspora. The acoustic experience of being, both within noise and silence, can be a rich point of discovery and this text aims to take the reader closer that discovery accompanied by a journey through how Panjabi Sikh diasporic youth formulate identity and community.

description: The $Λp$ interaction close to the $ΣN$ threshold is considered. Specifically, the pronounced structure seen in production reactions like $K^-d \to π^- Λp$ and $pp\to K^+ Λp$ around the $ΣN$ threshold is analyzed. Modern interaction models of the coupled $ΛN - ΣN$ systems generate such a structure either due to the presence of a (deuteron-like) unstable bound state or of an inelastic virtual state. % A determination of the position of the prominent peak as observed in various experiments for the two aforementioned reactions leads to values that agree quite well with each other. Furthermore, the deduced mean value of $2128.7\pm 0.3$ MeV for the peak position coincides practically with the threshold energy of the $Σ^+ n$ channel. This supports the interpretation of the structure as a genuine cusp, signaling an inelastic virtual state in the $^3S_1-^3D_1$ partial wave of the $ΣN$ isospin 1/2 channel. % There is also evidence for a second peak (or shoulder) in the data sets considered which appears at roughly 10-15 MeV above the $ΣN$ threshold. However, its concrete position varies significantly from data set to data set and, thus, a theoretical interpretation is difficult.

description: Magnetization behavior of long nanowires with square cross-section under influence of strong perpendicular spin-polarized current is studied theoretically. The study is based on Landau-Lifshitz-Slonczewski phenomenology. In the no current case the wire is magnetized uniformly along its axis. For small currents the wire magnetization remains uniform but it inclines with respect to the wire axis within the plane perpendicular to the current direction. With the current increasing the inclination angle increases up to the maximum value $π/4$. Further current increase leads either to saturation or to stable periodic multidomain structure depending on the wire thickness. For thick wires a hysteresis is observed in the saturation process under the action of current. All critical parameters of the current induced magnetization behavior are determined theoretically. The study is carried out both analytically and using micromagnetic simulations.

One Man, One Vote: Representational Equality, Prison Gerrymandering, and Reform

Subjects: prison gerrymandering

description: The Census Bureau counts incarcerated Americans at the location of their prison cells, rather than their hometowns. Census data is a central part of redistricting, enabling state and local governments to create roughly equal constituencies. But because felons largely cannot vote, districts containing penitentiaries can be the same size as their neighbor but with a fraction of the voting population. This means that voters in that district have a disproportionately high amount of representation. Patterns of incarceration further mean that people in prison are primarily incarcerated out of urban, Democratic communities of color and held in prisons in rural, white, Republican areas. The result is a transfer of political power from urban hubs to rural areas, with consequences for policy. Thirteen states have taken some level of action to address prison gerrymandering and mitigate its effects. This thesis investigates the factors relating to legislative success, finding that Democratic trifecta governments, mobilizing narratives around racial equity, and a legal foundation based in notions of electoral equality and representational nexuses all correspond to the passage of comprehensive legislation.

description: It is known that demand and supply power balancing is an essential method to operate power delivery system and prevent blackouts caused by power shortage. In this paper, we focus on the implementation of demand response strategy to save power during peak hours by using Smart Grid. It is obviously impractical with centralized power control network to realize the real-time control performance, where a single central controller measures the huge metering data and sends control command back to all customers. For that purpose, we propose a new architecture of hierarchical distributed power control network which is scalable regardless of the network size. The sub-controllers are introduced to partition the large system into smaller distributed clusters where low-latency local feedback power control loops are conducted to guarantee control stability. Furthermore, sub-controllers are stacked up in an hierarchical manner such that data are fed back layer-by-layer in the inbound while in the outbound control responses are decentralized in each local sub-controller for realizing the global objectives. Numerical simulations in a realistic scenario of up to 5000 consumers show the effectiveness of the proposed scheme to achieve a desired 10% peak power saving by using off-the-shelf wireless devices with IEEE802.15.4g standard. In addition, a small scale power control system for green building test-bed is implemented to demonstrate the potential use of the proposed scheme for power saving in real life.

description: In the US, there are approximately 1.8b dollars of student debt and an approximately 50 percent college completion rate. Higher education is becoming more unaffordable and possession of a degree in no way guarantees good employment. Besides these issues, competition in industrial markets requires continual upskilling for job security or career advancement. This brief offers insights into the different models of financing postsecondary education in different nation-states; its purpose is to apprise policymakers, employers, and the general public about a range of strategies available for financing postsecondary education and lifelong learning.

description: What role do textbooks and educational materials have in institutionalizing officially-sanctioned narratives of the past? How can history education be used to inculcate national identity and inform collective historical memory? My research seeks to answer these questions with regard to the case of modern Britain, specifically how the British education system has shaped the collective historical memory of the British Empire since 1900. Through textual analysis of history textbooks from 1900-1960 and an original survey connecting educational experience with opinions about the empire, I seek to critically analyze the dominant narratives of the empire within educational materials from the twentieth century to the present and analyze their impact on collective memory. My empirical research finds that the national history curriculum has institutionalized a glorified view of the past while omitting key historical episodes that do not fit the narrative of imperialism as a “civilizing mission.” The thesis concludes by examining how education reform can be leveraged to promote truth, reconciliation, and justice at the systemic level in Britain and other postcolonial societies.

description: This study investigated the viability and relevance of partnerships between NGOs and Community (smallholder farmer) groups as a conduit for rural development in Uganda. The study attempted to establish factors that facilitate rural institutions’ contributions and effectiveness of partnerships (including the system theory perspective) to rural development for the case of Uganda. The study used primary data collected using questionnaires, focus group discussions, interview guides, key informants, and literature review from a sample of 87 respondents from 40 organizations working in partnerships between 19 NGOs and 21 SFGs from the Central Region of Uganda. The data was analysed by employing the probit regression technique. The empirical results reveal that improving health, education, agriculture and industry efforts of rural institutions promotes rural development. It also posits that innovative effective rural-based partnerships enhance rural development. The study further found that if one system within partnerships fails to interact well, it adversely affects the other systems, which negatively reinforces the outcome. Although some of the findings are inconsistent with the theoretical literature, and generally expected to promote effectiveness, I fount out that local underlying control factors are determinants of whether a factor will cause or not cause improvementsin health, education, agriculture and industry as well as effectiveness of partnerships. It is recommended that rural institutions increase investment in facilitating improvement in health, education, agriculture, and industry, and limit those with negative influence. The study suggests analysis, evaluation and understanding of the underlying unique rural environments, and their varying effects on partnership contributions to rural development, and to partnership effectiveness. From the systems perspective, interactions of partnership system components should effectively reinforce, complement, and/or strengthen each other or otherwise. In instances where such factors dilute and/or undermine each other, the negative influence on rural development is bound to be registered.

description: We study the melting temperature of heavy mesons in the hot medium of light quarks. By solving the covariant Schrödinger equations at finite temperature for mesons $D$, $ϕ$ and $J/ψ$, we obtained the temperature dependence of their masses, binding energies and averaged sizes and found the flavor dependence of the melting temperature: $T_D \simeq T_ϕ< T_{J/ψ}$. The sequential melting temperature can explain the difference in meson elliptic flow observed in heavy ion collisions.

description: On Tuesday, April 13th, 2021, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) paused the administration of the Johnson & Johnson COVID-19 vaccine to investigate six cases of blood clots. Though the pause only lasted ten days, survey data suggests that it may have precipitated the major subsequent decline in vaccination rates. I use data on weekly vaccinations to verify this link empirically. Drawing from the literature on the diffusion of new technologies, I develop a structural model of the vaccine rollout in the United States to estimate counterfactual vaccination rates and quantify the effect of the pause. I find that the pause led to a significant decrease in weekly vaccinations on the order of 1.2 million first doses per week, resulting in 11 million fewer Americans receiving the vaccine by mid-June. The reduction is consistent across all manufacturers, suggesting a spillover of vaccine perceptions onto the mRNA vaccines. This reduction in vaccinations could have resulted in as many as 47,000 additional cases and 500 additional deaths due to COVID-19 from infections occurring during the nine-week period following the pause. This is orders of magnitude larger than the likely number of averted blood clot deaths.

description: Quantum logic aims to capture essential quantum mechanical structure in order-theoretic terms. The Achilles' heel of quantum logic is the absence of a canonical description of composite systems, given descriptions of their components. We introduce a framework in which order-theoretic structure comes with a primitive composition operation. The order is extracted from a generalisation of C*-algebra that applies to arbitrary dagger symmetric monoidal categories, which also provide the composition operation. In fact, our construction is entirely compositional, without any additional assumptions on limits or enrichment. Interpreted in the category of finite-dimensional Hilbert spaces, it yields the projection lattices of arbitrary finite-dimensional C*-algebras. Interestingly, there are models that falsify standardly assumed correspondences, most notably the correspondence between noncommutativity of the algebra and nondistributivity of the order.

description: This work is an autoethnography tracing my educational journey as an English language learner. While there is extensive literature on bilingualism and the best techniques for teaching English in schools, there is not a lot of focus on the emotional and psychological impacts bilingualism has on children. I explored some of my own past experiences and reflected on the impact they had on me as well as shaping the way I grew up. My hopes in writing this is to give light to some of the hardships children face as English language learners both in and out of classrooms.

description: Astrometry, referring to the measurement of stellar positions in the sky, has long been a promising technique for exoplanet detection. As the Earth orbits the Sun, for example, its gravitational pull causes the Sun to wobble with an amplitude of 0.65 milli solar radii. Exoplanets induce analogous reflex motion in their host stars, which can serve as astrometric signals. At its theoretical limits, astrometry would allow for the detection of planets smaller than previously observed by current exoplanet search methods. However, stellar activity may make these theoretical limits unreachable. Magnetic activity in the photosphere of a Sun-like star induces variability of order 0.5 milli solar radii in the position of the photocenter. This astrometric “jitter” creates a fundamental astrophysical noise floor preventing detection of lower mass planets at a single wavelength. 

In this thesis, we investigate mitigation of this fundamental astrometric noise for Sun-like stars using correlations across wavelengths. To do so, we perform planet injection-and-recovery tests in five different wavelength passbands using astrometry simulations calibrated from solar data. We treat this problem in the limit of an ideal telescope to isolate the noise floor set by stellar activity. For a true solar analog and a planet at 1 au semi-major axis, we find the 6σ detection limit to be 0.01 Earth masses in the best single passband. We then show that combining information from pairs of passbands with highly correlated jitter but less motion in the redder band enables higher precision measurements of the common signal from the planet. Using this method improves detectable planet masses at 1 au by up to a factor of 10 at some wavelengths, and it sets the new 6σ detection limit across all passbands to 0.005 Earth masses. Given these results, we recommend that future astrometry missions consider proceeding with two or more passbands to progress towards astrometric planet detection by reducing noise due to stellar activity.
Combining collective, MSW, and turbulence effects in supernova neutrino flavor evolution

description: (Abridged) In order to decode the neutrino burst signal from a Galactic core-collapse supernova and reveal the complicated inner workings of the explosion we need a thorough understanding of the neutrino flavor evolution from the proto-neutron star outwards. The flavor content of the signal evolves due to both neutrino collective effects and matter effects which can lead to a highly interesting interplay and distinctive spectral features. In this paper we investigate the supernova neutrino flavor evolution in three different progenitors and include collective flavor effects, the evolution of the Mikheyev, Smirnov & Wolfenstein conversion due to the shock wave passage through the star, and the impact of turbulence. In the Oxygen-Neon-Magnesium supernova we find that the impact of turbulence is both brief and slight during a window of 1-2 seconds post bounce. Thus the spectral features of collective and shock effects in the neutrino signals from ONeMg supernovae may be almost turbulence free making them the easiest to interpret. For the more massive progenitors we again find that small amplitude turbulence, up to 10%, leads to a minimal modification of the signal, and the emerging neutrino spectra retain both collective and MSW features. However, when larger amounts of turbulence is added, 30% and 50%, the features of collective and shock wave effects in the high density resonance channel are almost completely obscured at late times. Yet at the same time we find the other mixing channels - the low density resonance channel and the non-resonant channels - begin to develop turbulence signatures. Large amplitude turbulent motions in the outer layers of more massive, iron core-collapse supernovae may obscure the most obvious fingerprints of collective and shock wave effects in the neutrino signal but cannot remove them completely, and additionally bring about new features in the signal.
