description: The interplay between Rashba, Dresselhaus and Zeeman interactions in a quantum well submitted to an external magnetic field is studied by means of an accurate analytical solution of the Hamiltonian, including electron-electron interactions in a sum rule approach. This solution allows to discuss the influence of the spin-orbit coupling on some relevant quantities that have been measured in inelastic light scattering and electron-spin resonance experiments on quantum wells. In particular, we have evaluated the spin-orbit contribution to the spin splitting of the Landau levels and to the splitting of charge- and spin-density excitations. We also discuss how the spin-orbit effects change if the applied magnetic field is tilted with respect to the direction perpendicular to the quantum well.

An exploration into the influence of schizotypic maternal personality on early sensory development
Creators: name: Smith, Ellie
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2019

description: It has been known for some time that maternal personality is an influential factor in determining developmental and clinical outcomes in childhood risk for mental health. Current literature describes schizotypy as a multidimensional construct, representing a vulnerability to the schizophrenia-spectrum. This thesis investigates atypicalities observed throughout the spectrum aiming to determine whether these were present in mothers with sub-clinical schizotypy, and their offspring. Chapter 2 explored sensory gating in infants at 6-months of age. Infants displayed intact sensory gating, and there was no difference between infants of schizotypic and those of control mothers. The mothers of the infants displayed significant differences between Stimulus 1 and Stimulus 2, but also differences as a result of their schizotypy dimensionality; replicating prior literature. Similarly, in Chapter 3, schizotypic mothers displayed reduced oscillatory power towards Stimulus 1 of the paired-tone paradigm, replicating prior literature. In contrast, their infants showed no group differences. This implies that having a mother with schizotypic traits does not influence the sensory gating ability of their 6-month-old infants. Chapter 4 demonstrated that 6-month-old infants differentiated between happy and fearful emotional facial expressions, replicating prior literature. Maternal schizotypy, however, did not influence this ability. When exploring face processing in the maternal sample, schizotypic mothers exhibited greater amplitudes towards both facial expressions when contrasted with non-schizotypic mothers. In Chapter 5 we explored relationships between schizotypy and mother-child interactions in a free play session. We found that oscillatory power shown by infants in their left and right parietal regions was greater when their mother was talking to them, or when they were playing independently with a toy, compared to a baseline. No significant differences were observed between infants of schizotypic, and those of control mothers. Despite a lack of infant group effects, it is important to explore schizotypal expression during adolescence and adulthood as a critical link to childhood risk markers, which confer a role of developmental facilitators on the road to psychosis proneness. This thesis concludes that schizotypy is linked to the schizophrenia-spectrum, as shown consistently by maternal electrophysiological data, but that maternal level of schizotypy did not have an effect on infant markers.

description: We discuss the weight of vacuum energy in various contexts. First, we compute the vacuum energy for flat spacetimes of the form $\mathbb{T}^3 \times \mathbb{R}$, where $\mathbb{T}^3$ stands for a general 3-torus. We discover a quite simple relationship between energy at radius $R$ and energy at radius $\frac{l_s^2}{ R}$. Then we consider quantum gravity effects in the vacuum energy of a scalar field in $\mathbb{M}_3 \times S^1$ where $\mathbb{M}_3$ is a general curved spacetime, and the circle $S^1$ refers to a spacelike coordinate. We compute it for General Relativity and generic transverse {\em TDiff} theories. In the particular case of Unimodular Gravity vacuum energy does not gravitate.

description: The iron-based superconductor Ba$_{1-x}$K$_x$Fe$_\text{2}$As$_\text{2}$ is emerging as a key material for high magnetic field applications owing to the recent developments in superconducting wires and bulk permanent magnets. Epitaxial thin films play important roles in investigating and artificially tuning physical properties; nevertheless, the synthesis of Ba$_{1-x}$K$_x$Fe$_2$As$_2$ epitaxial thin films remained challenging because of the high volatility of K. Herein, we report the successful growth of epitaxial Ba$_{1-x}$K$_x$Fe$_\text{2}$As$_\text{2}$ thin films by molecular-beam epitaxy with employing a combination of fluoride substrates (CaF$_\text{2}$, SrF$_\text{2}$, and BaF$_\text{2}$) and a low growth temperature (350$-$420$^\circ$C). Our epitaxial thin film grown on CaF$_\text{2}$ showed sharp superconducting transition at an onset critical temperature of 36 K, slightly lower than bulk crystals by ~2 K due presumably to the strain effect arising from the lattice and thermal expansion mismatch. Critical current density ($J$$_\text{c}$) determined by the magnetization hysteresis loop is as high as 2.2 MA/cm$^\text{2}$ at 4 K under self-field. In-field $J$$_\text{c}$ characteristics of the film are superior to the bulk crystals. The realization of epitaxial thin films opens opportunities for tuning superconducting properties by epitaxial strain and revealing intrinsic grain boundary transport of Ba$_{1-x}$K$_x$Fe$_\text{2}$As$_\text{2}$.

description: In recent years, electronic retail payment mechanisms, especially e-commerce and card payments at the point of sale, have increasingly replaced cash in many developed countries. As a result, societies are losing a critical public retail payment option, and retail consumers are losing important rights associated with using cash. To address this concern, we propose an approach to digital currency that would allow people without banking relationships to transact electronically and privately, including both internet purchases and point-of-sale purchases that are required to be cashless. Our proposal introduces a government-backed, privately-operated digital currency infrastructure to ensure that every transaction is registered by a bank or money services business, and it relies upon non-custodial wallets backed by privacy-enhancing technology such as blind signatures or zero-knowledge proofs to ensure that transaction counterparties are not revealed. Our approach to digital currency can also facilitate more efficient and transparent clearing, settlement, and management of systemic risk. We argue that our system can restore and preserve the salient features of cash, including privacy, owner-custodianship, fungibility, and accessibility, while also preserving fractional reserve banking and the existing two-tiered banking system. We also show that it is possible to introduce regulation of digital currency transactions involving non-custodial wallets that unconditionally protect the privacy of end-users.

description: Unlike gravitational waves from merging black holes and neutron stars that chirp significantly over the observational period of ground-based detectors, gravitational waves from binary white dwarfs are almost monochromatic. This makes it extremely challenging to measure their individual masses. Here, we take a novel approach of using finite-size effects and applying certain universal relations to measure individual masses of binary white dwarfs using LISA. We found quasi-universal relations among the mass, moment of inertia, and tidal deformability of a white dwarf that do not depend sensitively on the white dwarf composition. These relations allow us to rewrite the moments of inertia and tidal deformabilities in the waveform in terms of the masses. We then carried out a Fisher analysis to estimate how accurately one can measure the individual masses from the chirp mass and finite-size measurements. We found that the individual white dwarf masses can be measured with LISA for a 4-year observation if the initial frequency is high enough ($\sim 0.02$Hz) and either the binary separation is small ($\sim 1$kpc) or the masses are relatively large $(m \gtrsim 0.8M_\odot)$. This opens a new possibility of measuring individual masses of binary white dwarfs with space-based interferometers.

We present a method for the systematic determination of higher order vertex functions. This method is applied to a study of transport properties of various correlated quantum dot systems. It is shown that for large Coulomb correlations higher order vertex functions cannot be neglected, and a static approximation is insufficient.

description: The development of Internet of Things (IoT) brings new changes to various fields. Particularly, industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is promoting a new round of industrial revolution. With more applications of IIoT, privacy protection issues are emerging. Specially, some common algorithms in IIoT technology such as deep models strongly rely on data collection, which leads to the risk of privacy disclosure. Recently, differential privacy has been used to protect user-terminal privacy in IIoT, so it is necessary to make in-depth research on this topic. In this paper, we conduct a comprehensive survey on the opportunities, applications and challenges of differential privacy in IIoT. We firstly review related papers on IIoT and privacy protection, respectively. Then we focus on the metrics of industrial data privacy, and analyze the contradiction between data utilization for deep models and individual privacy protection. Several valuable problems are summarized and new research ideas are put forward. In conclusion, this survey is dedicated to complete comprehensive summary and lay foundation for the follow-up researches on industrial differential privacy.

Private sector involvement in public schools : an analysis of policies of educational organisations in British Columbia
Creators: name: Hale, Daniel James
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Debate about the appropriate role for the private sector in public education is a recurrent theme in the education literature, yet it remains an issue that is both poorly defined and inadequately analysed. Controversy revolves around the incongruence between the expectations of the private sector to reduce costs and maximise profit while training students for the workforce, and the expectation that a public school system has loftier goals such as the betterment of society and the attainment of each student's full potential. At the heart of the matter lie questions about the purposes of public education and contentions about who should control curriculum and its delivery in the schools. Various groups involved in public education in British Columbia have formulated guidelines and policies to address concerns regarding sponsorships, partnerships, and the provision of teaching resources. This study explores and critiques the current policies of school boards and the Ministry of Education in British Columbia, providing commentary on the role of the private sector as it relates to the delivery of public education. The three main goals of this study are: • to identify what kinds of private sector involvements are recognised by school boards and the Ministry in British Columbia during the 1998/99 school year; • to clarify what these educational organisations define as the purposes and perceived benefits of private sector involvement in public education; and, • to identify what problems these organisations wish to preclude or issues they intend to address through the implementation of policy. It was found that three waves of policy have developed since the early 1980s. The first wave of policies was from the 1980s, the second from the early and 1990s, and the third from 1997 to the present. These three waves are differentiated on the number and complexity of school/business types, purposes, and issues that are dealt with. The first wave policies that are still in existence are from small and rural districts, whereas the third wave policies are from large and urban districts that are facing pressures for resources due to increased student enrollment and diversity of student needs and backgrounds. The latter policies spoke to seven purposes for involvement, seven types of involvement, and four sets of anticipated issues.

description: We present a study of outflows at extremely early stages of high-mass star formation obtained from the ALMA Survey of 70 $μ\rm m$ dark High-mass clumps in Early Stages (ASHES). Twelve massive 3.6$-$70 $μ\rm m$ dark prestellar clump candidates were observed with the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) in Band 6. Forty-three outflows are identified toward 41 out of 301 dense cores using the CO and SiO emission lines, yielding a detection rate of 14%. We discover 6 episodic molecular outflows associated with low- to high-mass cores, indicating that episodic outflows (and therefore episodic accretion) begin at extremely early stages of protostellar evolution for a range of core masses. The time span between consecutive ejection events is much smaller than those found in more evolved stages, which indicates that the ejection episodicity timescale is likely not constant over time. The estimated outflow dynamical timescale appears to increase with core masses, which likely indicates that more massive cores have longer accretion timescales than less massive cores. The lower accretion rates in these 70 $μ\rm m$ dark objects compared to the more evolved protostars indicate that the accretion rates increase with time. The total outflow energy rate is smaller than the turbulent energy dissipation rate, which suggests that outflow induced turbulence cannot sustain the internal clump turbulence at the current epoch. We often detect thermal SiO emission within these 70 $μ\rm m$ dark clumps that is unrelated to CO outflows. This SiO emission could be produced by collisions, intersection flows, undetected protostars, or other motions.

description: A new strategy is proposed aimed at substantially reducing the minimal magnetization switching field for a Stoner particle. Unlike the normal method of applying a static magnetic field which must be larger than the magnetic anisotropy, a much weaker field, proportional to the damping constant in the weak damping regime, can be used to switch the magnetization from one state to another if the field is along the motion of the magnetization. The concept is to constantly supply energy to the particle from the time-dependent magnetic field to allow the particle to climb over the potential barrier between the initial and the target states.

description: Light excitation of a semiconductor, known to dynamically-polarize the nuclear spins by hyperfine contact interaction with the photoelectrons, also generates an intrinsic nuclear depolarization mechanism. This novel relaxation process arises from the modulation of the nuclear quadrupolar Hamiltonian by photoelectron trapping and recombination at nearby localized states. For nuclei near shallow donors, the usual diffusion radius is replaced by a smaller, quadrupolar, radius. If the light excitation conditions correspond to partial donor occupation by photoelectrons, the nuclear magnetization and the nuclear field can be decreased by more than one order of magnitude.

description: We study strong and radiative decays of excited singly heavy baryons (SHBs) using an effective chiral Lagrangian based on the diquark picture proposed in Ref. [1]. The effective Lagrangian contains a $U_A (1)$ anomaly term, which induces an inverse mass ordering between strange and non-strange SHBs with spin-parity $1/2^-$. We find that the effect of the $U_A (1)$ anomaly combined with flavor-symmetry breaking modifies the Goldberger-Treiman relation for the mass difference between the ground state $Λ_Q (1/2^+)$ and its chiral partner $Λ_Q (1/2^-)$, and $Λ_Q (1/2^-) Λ_Q (1/2^+) η$ coupling, which results in suppression of the decay width of $Λ_Q (1/2^-) \to Λ_Q (1/2^+) η$. We also investigate the other various decays such as $Λ_Q (1/2^-) \to Σ_Q (1/2^+, \, 3/2^+) ππ$, $Λ_Q (1/2^-) \to Σ_Q (1/2^+) π$, $Λ_Q (1/2^-) \to Σ_Q (1/2^+, \, 3/2^+) γ$, and $Λ_Q (1/2^-) \to Λ_Q (1/2^+) π^0$ for wide range of mass of $Λ_Q (1/2^-)$.

The Hamilton--Jacobi equations are known to be completely separable, giving a Carter-like quantity $Q$ which is a constant of motion. All possible trajectories are classified according to a two-dimensional parameter space representing the particle's angular momentum and energy scaled in units of $Q$. Exact solutions are given in the C-metric coordinates in terms of Jacobi elliptic functions. Using the exact solutions, we find examples of periodic orbits on the photon surface.

description: La presente investigación analiza el cumplimiento normativo por parte de las empresas de viajes y turismo en el Departamento de Cochabamba, Bolivia, revelando un significativo porcentaje de empresas que operan sin la licencia turística departamental requerida. A través de una investigación exhaustiva, se identifican factores que contribuyen a esta informalidad, como la complejidad del proceso de obtención de licencias, la falta de acceso a la información y la escasa fiscalización.

Los resultados dan a conocer la necesidad urgente de fortalecer los mecanismos de regulación, como también poder simplificar los procedimientos administrativos para facilitar la obtención de la licencia. Asimismo, se destaca la importancia de implementar sanciones más estrictas para combatir la informalidad y promover un entorno más competitivo y seguro en el sector turístico. La investigación concluye que estas acciones son esenciales para garantizar un turismo sostenible y de calidad en el departamento de Cochabamba.
Entropy production for quasi-adiabatic parameter changes dominated by hydrodynamics

description: A typical strategy of realizing an adiabatic change of a many-particle system is to vary parameters very slowly on a time scale $t_\text{r}$ much larger than intrinsic equilibration time scales. In the ideal case of adiabatic state preparation, $t_\text{r} \to \infty$, the entropy production vanishes. In systems with conservation laws, the approach to the adiabatic limit is hampered by hydrodynamic long-time tails, arising from the algebraically slow relaxation of hydrodynamic fluctuations. We argue that the entropy production $ΔS$ of a diffusive system at finite temperature in one or two dimensions is governed by hydrodynamic modes resulting in $ΔS \sim 1/\sqrt{t_\text{r}}$ in $d=1$ and $ΔS \sim \ln(t_\text{r})/t_\text{r}$ in $d=2$. In higher dimensions, entropy production is instead dominated by other high-energy modes with $ΔS \sim 1/t_\text{r}$. In order to verify the analytic prediction, we simulate the non-equilibrium dynamics of a classical two-component gas with point-like particles in one spatial dimension and examine the total entropy production as a function of $t_\text{r}$.

How does quality children's literature capture their imaginations in a way that enhances the possibility for them to think mathematically in deeper, more reflective ways? A qualitative research methodology was employed in this investigation. The collected data consisted of videotapes and a handwritten, personal journal. The videotapes documented classroom literature sessions and the journal recorded the teacher's observations, thought, and conjectures. Field notes and photographs were also kept to accurately document and describe students' work on chalkboards. The teacher videotaped the reading and discussion of many different books with her Grade To class, but this thesis focuses on a detailed analysis of just one book, Selina and the Bear Paw Quilt by Barbara Smucker, within the context of the previous readings. The shared reading context and the book provoked he students to engage in mathematical discussion as well as stimulating deep, reflective mathematical thinking. Using an interpretive inquiry approach, initiated by one student's mathematical comment on an illustration in this book, the thesis seeks to uncover the ways in which children's literature promotes the growth of mathematical thinking and conceptual understanding in young children. The power, of wellwritten and illustrated literature for children, to enhance mathematical understanding, has been a long-held personal conviction of this teacher.

description: Uncertainty quantification (UQ) plays a pivotal role in reduction of uncertainties during both optimization and decision making processes. It can be applied to solve a variety of real-world applications in science and engineering. Bayesian approximation and ensemble learning techniques are two most widely-used UQ methods in the literature. In this regard, researchers have proposed different UQ methods and examined their performance in a variety of applications such as computer vision (e.g., self-driving cars and object detection), image processing (e.g., image restoration), medical image analysis (e.g., medical image classification and segmentation), natural language processing (e.g., text classification, social media texts and recidivism risk-scoring), bioinformatics, etc. This study reviews recent advances in UQ methods used in deep learning. Moreover, we also investigate the application of these methods in reinforcement learning (RL). Then, we outline a few important applications of UQ methods. Finally, we briefly highlight the fundamental research challenges faced by UQ methods and discuss the future research directions in this field.
Animal Behavior

Publisher: name: veterinary today

description: Animal behaviour refers to the physical expression of bodily movements that result from an internal drive or motivation. A motivation is caused by a real or perceived need and performance of a behaviour that leads to this need being met will ordinarily reduce the motivation to perform the behaviour, at least temporarily. Behaviour is therefore the intervening step between the identification of a need and the satisfaction of that need. The behaviour performed at any given moment is often the outcome of many different motivations, some of which compete (for example the motivations to feed and to hide from predators). Behavioural expression can become extremely complex and dynamic especially where behaviour controls the interactions between individuals
Studying Leaders & Their Concerns Using Online Social Media During The Times Of Crisis -- A COVID Case Study

subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Online social media (OSM) has emerged as a prominent platform for debate on a wide range of issues. Even celebrities and public figures often share their opinions on a variety of topics through OSM platforms. One such subject that has gained a lot of coverage on Twitter is the Novel Coronavirus, officially known as COVID-19, which has become a pandemic and has sparked a crisis in human history. In this study, we examine 29 million tweets over three months to study highly influential users, whom we refer to as leaders. We recognize these leaders through social network techniques and analyze their tweets using text analysis. Using a community detection algorithm, we categorize these leaders into four clusters: research, news, health, and politics, with each cluster containing Twitter handles (accounts) of individual users or organizations. E.g., the health cluster includes the World Health Organization (@WHO), the Director-General of WHO (@DrTedros), and so on. The emotion analysis reveals that (i) all clusters show an equal amount of fear in their tweets, (ii) research and news clusters display more sadness than others, and (iii) health and politics clusters are attempting to win public trust. According to the text analysis, the (i) research cluster is more concerned with recognizing symptoms and the development of vaccination; (ii) news and politics clusters are mostly concerned with travel. We then show that we can use our findings to classify tweets into clusters with a score of 96% AUC ROC.
The Neuropsychology of Autoimmune Encephalitis
Creators: name: GRIFFITH, SARAH PAIGE
Publisher: name: Monash University

Subjects: classificationCode: 520301
subject: Clinical neuropsychology

description: Autoimmune encephalitis is rare neurological conditions where the immune system attacks
the brain, causing inflammation and dysfunction. Acute presentations vary but include
cognitive, behavioural, neurological, and psychiatric symptoms. Despite treatment, patients
often report cognitive impairment. However, the literature regarding these outcomes is very
limited. This dissertation examined cognitive outcomes in patients with autoimmune
encephalitis who were at least six months post-diagnosis. It concluded that poor cognitive
outcomes were not uncommon, with executive dysfunction being a frequent outcome. These
conclusions are a novel and important addition to the current literature, expanding our
understanding of the variability and diversity of cognitive outcomes after AE.

description: Our spacetime is filled with gravitational wave backgrounds that constitute a fluctuating environment created by astrophysical and cosmological sources. Bounds on these backgrounds are obtained from cosmological and astrophysical data but also by analysis of ranging and Doppler signals from distant spacecraft. We propose here a new way to set bounds on those backgrounds by performing clock comparisons between a ground clock and a remote spacecraft equipped with an ultra-stable clock, rather than only ranging to an onboard transponder. This technique can then be optimized as a function of the signal to be measured and the dominant noise sources, leading to significant improvements on present bounds in a promising frequency range where different theoretical models are competing. We illustrate our approach using the SAGAS project which aims to fly an ultra stable optical clock in the outer solar system.

description: We apply neutron spectroscopy to measure the magnetic dynamics in the S=3/2 magnet $β$-CaCr$_2$O$_4$ (T$_N$=21 K). The low-energy fluctuations, in the ordered state, resemble large-S linear spin-waves from the incommensurate ground state. However, at higher energy transfers, these semi-classical and harmonic dynamics are replaced by an energy and momentum broadened continuum of excitations. Applying kinematic constraints required for energy and momentum conservation, sum rules of neutron scattering, and comparison against exact diagonalization calculations, we show that the dynamics at high-energy transfers resemble low-S one-dimensional quantum fluctuations. $β$-CaCr$_2$O$_4$ represents an example of a magnet at the border between classical Néel and quantum phases, displaying dual characteristics.

description: Architected materials such as lattices are capable of demonstrating extraordinary mechanical performance. Lattices are often used for their stretch-dominated behavior, which gives them a high degree of stiffness at low-volume fractions. At the other end of the stiffness spectrum, bending-dominated lattices tend to be more compliant and are of interest for their energy absorption performance. Here, we report a class of ultra-compliant interwoven lattices that demonstrate up to an order of magnitude improvement in compliance over their traditional counterparts at similar volume fractions. This is achieved by selectively decoupling nodes and interweaving struts in bending-dominated lattices, inspired by observations of this structural principle in the lattice-like arrangement of the Venus flower basket sea sponge. By decoupling nodes in this manner, we demonstrate a simple and near-universal design strategy for modulating stiffness in lattice structures and achieve among the most compliant lattices reported in the literature.

description: Several experiments measure the fluorescence light produced by extensive air showers in the atmosphere. This light is converted into a longitudinal shower profile from which information on the primary energy and composition is derived. The fluorescence yield, as the conversion factor between light profile measured by EAS experiments and physical interpretation of showers, has been measured in several laboratory experiments. The results, however, differ considerably. In this article, a model calculation of the fluorescence emission from relevant band systems of nitrogen in dependence on wavelength and atmospheric conditions is presented. Different calculations are compared to each other in combination with varying input parameters. The predictions are compared with measurements and the altitude-dependence of the fluorescence yield is discussed in detail.

Limit shape of perfect matchings on contracting bipartite graphs

Subjects: subject: Probability (math.PR)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: We consider random perfect matchings on a general class of contracting bipartite graphs by letting certain edge weights be 0 on the contracting square-hexagon lattice in a periodic way. We obtain a deterministic limit shape in the scaling limit. The results can also be applied to prove the existence of multiple disconnected liquid regions for all the contracting square-hexagon lattices with certain edge weights, extending the results proved in [13] for contracting square-hexagon lattices where the number of square rows in each period is either 0 or 1.

Influence of charming penguins on the extraction of gamma in B->PP decays
Creators: name: Sowa, M.
Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Charmless B->PP decays are studied using flavor SU(3) symmetry. Amplitude with charming penguin topology is considered for two cases: with zero and with arbitrary strong phase. Two sets of data (an older and the most recent one) are used in the fits, so that the stability of the fits is tested. It is shown that within the present uncertainties in the data the parameters of the fit may be significantly modified, especially the gamma angle. The fits indicate the strong phase of the charming penguin amplitude to be around $\pm 20^{o}$.
