title: 'Figured Paper for Hanging Rooms': The manufacture, design and consumption of wallpapers for English domestic interiors, c.1740-c.1800
Creators: name: Taylor, Clare
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2010

description: This thesis focuses on paper hangings, an hitherto understudied material in comparison to other components of the Eighteenth century domestic interior. Drawing on recent theories of consumption and the nature of domestic space, the thesis uses study of extant and reconstructed schemes, surviving papers and archival material to illuminate the material's increasingly important role in decoration during the second half of the century. Papers studied include Chinese papers and English papers in the Chinese style, English papers imitating architectural, sculpted and painted ornament and late century English and imported prints and panelled schemes. Three key issues are examined. Firstly, the thesis focuses attention on the structure of the trade, constructing a new model for understanding the way in which the manufacture, retailing, distribution and hanging of papers was organised. Examining the role of imports as well as the rapid expansion of the domestic trade, the thesis argues that control of this trade was contested by both new, and established, trades involved in decoration. Secondly, the role of design is analysed, particularly in terms of the relationship between imitation and innovation. Study of papers' sources further illuminates this issue, for example by examining how far English manufacturers sought to imitate Chinese originals and also how some Chinese papers rework European models. The relationship with other types of wall decoration and three dimensional ornament is also considered; the argument here is that far from merely copying printed designs, papers appropriated design sources from stucco, ceramics and textiles. Thirdly, and finally, aspects of consumption are examined. The thesis investigates how far the selection of paper supports the argument that the period witnessed increased differentiation of space, by gender or function. It questions easy distinctions between the choices of male and female consumers, arguing that both negotiated the materials' positive and negative associations.

description: We have studied magnetotransport in arrays of niobium filled grooves in an InAs/AlGaSb heterostructure. The critical field of up to 2.6 T permits to enter the quantum Hall regime. In the superconducting state, we observe strong magnetoresistance oscillations, whose amplitude exceeds the Shubnikov-de Haas oscillations by a factor of about two, when normalized to the background. Additionally, we find that above a geometry-dependent magnetic field value the sample in the superconducting state has a higher longitudinal resistance than in the normal state. Both observations can be explained with edge channels populated with electrons and Andreev reflected holes.

description: We present the detection of CO(5-4) with S/N> 7 - 13 and a lower CO transition with S/N > 3 (CO(4-3) for 4 galaxies, and CO(3-2) for one) with ALMA in band 3 and 4 in five main sequence star-forming galaxies with stellar masses 3-6x10^10 M/M_sun at 3 < z < 3.5. We find a good correlation between the total far-infrared luminosity LFIR and the luminosity of the CO(5-4) transition L'CO(5-4), where L'CO(5-4) increases with SFR, indicating that CO(5-4) is a good tracer of the obscured SFR in these galaxies. The two galaxies that lie closer to the star-forming main sequence have CO SLED slopes that are comparable to other star-forming populations, such as local SMGs and BzK star-forming galaxies; the three objects with higher specific star formation rates (sSFR) have far steeper CO SLEDs, which possibly indicates a more concentrated episode of star formation. By exploiting the CO SLED slopes to extrapolate the luminosity of the CO(1-0) transition, and using a classical conversion factor for main sequence galaxies of alpha_CO = 3.8 M_sun(K km s^-1 pc^-2)^-1, we find that these galaxies are very gas rich, with molecular gas fractions between 60 and 80%, and quite long depletion times, between 0.2 and 1 Gyr. Finally, we obtain dynamical masses that are comparable with the sum of stellar and gas mass (at least for four out of five galaxies), allowing us to put a first constraint on the alpha_CO parameter for main sequence galaxies at an unprecedented redshift.

description: Using a subset of the current Run II data, the CDF and \D0 have performed several measurements on heavy flavor production. In this paper, we present a new measurement of prompt charm meson production by CDF. We also report the latest CDF II measurements of inclusive $J/Ψ$ production and $b$-production without requirement of minimum transverse momentum on $J/Ψ$ and $b$-quark. They are the first measurements of the total inclusive $J/Ψ$ and $b$ quark cross section in the central rapidity region at a hadron collider. The results of $J/Ψ$ cross section as a function of rapidity, and $b$-jet production cross section measured by \D0 are also reviewed.

description: The implications of the $f_1(1285)-f_1(1420)$ mixing for the $K_1(^3P_1)-K_1(^1P_1)$ mixing angle is investigated. Based on the $f_1(1285)-f_1(1420)$ mixing angle $\sim 50^\circ$ suggested from the analysis for a substantial body of data concerning the $f_1(1420)$ and $f_1(1285)$, the masses of the $K_1(^3P_1)$ and $K_1(^1P_1)$ are determined to be $\sim 1307.35\pm 0.63$ MeV and $1370.03\pm 9.69$ MeV, respectively, which therefore suggests that the $K_1(^3P_1)-K_1(^1P_1)$ mixing angle is about $\pm (59.55\pm 2.81)^\circ$. Also, it is found that the mass of the $h^\prime_1(^1P_1)$ (mostly of $s\bar{s}$) state is about $1495.18\pm 8.82$ MeV. Comparison of the predicted results and the available experimental information of the $h_1(1380)$ shows that without further confirmation on the $h_1(1380)$, the assignment of the $h_1(1380)$ as the $s\bar{s}$ member of the $^1P_1$ meson nonet may be premature.

A slave boson description of pseudogap metals in t-J models

description: We present a simple modification of the standard U(1) slave boson construction for the single band t-J model which accounts for two-particle bound states of spinons and holons. This construction naturally gives rise to fractionalized Fermi liquid ground states, featuring small, hole-like pocket Fermi surfaces with an anisotropic quasiparticle weight in the absence of broken symmetries. In a specific parameter regime our approach maps the square lattice t-J model to a generalized quantum dimer model, which was introduced as a toy model for the metallic pseudogap phase in hole-doped cuprates in [PNAS 112,9552-9557 (2015)]. Our slave boson construction captures essential features of the nodal-antinodal dichotomy and straightforwardly describes sharp, Fermi arc-like features in the electron spectral function. Moreover, it allows to study quantum phase transitions between fractionalized Fermi liquid phases and superconductors or ordinary Fermi liquids.

description: I t may be chic in the current milieu of diet-health mania to say one has cut back on meat and refined sugars, and people report as much in numerous consumer surveys. However, U.S. per capita food supply data indicate that Americans consumed record-high levels of caloric sweeteners and total meat (red meat, poultry, and fish) in 1994. And, forecasters predict still higher consumption in 1995 and 1996. The American diet has changed considerably over the past decade. Beef consumption, for example, fell 14 percent between 1980-84 and 1990-94, while chicken consumption rose 37 percent and turkey 67 percent (table 1). Egg use also declined, while cheese consumption increased steadily. Consumption of fresh produce reached a record-high level in 1994 (with kiwifruit one of the biggest gainers, increasing 267 percent between 1980-84 and 1990-94). Diet and health concerns, as well as changing relative prices and increases in real (adjusted for inflation) disposable income, compelled these changes in U.S. food consumption. New products-particularly more convenient ones-also have contributed to shifts in consumption, along with an aging population, expanded advertising campaigns, smaller households, more two-earner households, more singleperson households, and an increasing proportion of ethnic minorities in the U.S. population. USDA's Economic Research Service (ERS) estimates per capita food consumption, based on food disappearance data (see box). These data represent the amount of food available for human use. They are used as a proxy to estimate human consumption, even though the data may overstate what is actually eaten because they represent food supplies available in the market and do not account for waste.
Radio Interferometers with wide bandwidths

description: The Australia Telescope Compact Array and the Very Large Array are currently being upgraded to operate with wide bandwidths; interferometers dedicated to the measurement of cosmic microwave background anisotropies are being designed with large instantaneous bandwidths for high sensitivity. Interferometers with wide instantaneous bandwidths that do not operate with correlators capable of decomposing the bands into narrow channels suffer from `bandwidth smearing' effects in wide-field imaging. The formalism of mosaic imaging is extended here to interferometers with finite bandwidths to examine the consequences for the imaging of wide fields if very wide instantaneous bandwidths are used. The formalism presented here provides an understanding of the signal processing associated with wide-band interferometers: mosaicing may be viewed as decomposing visibilities over wide observing bands and, thereby, avoiding `bandwidth smearing' effects in wide-field imaging. In particular, the formalism has implications for interferometer measurements of the angular power spectrum of cosmic microwave background anisotropies: mosaic-mode observing with wide-band radio interferometers decompose wide-band data and synthesize narrow filters in multipole space.

Subjects: subject: Mechanical Engineering

description: Ultrasonic assisted ball burnishing process is a newly developed alternative of conventional ball burnishing
process that enhances the surface properties of engineering materials through imposing both the static and
dynamic loadings. The process needs careful selection of design parameters to improve the performance measures such as surface roughness and hardness. In the present study an experimental investigation was carried out
to analyze effect of ultrasonic vibration amplitude, feed rate and static force on surface roughness and hardness
of aluminum 6061-T6 alloy. Here, number of 20 experiments was carried out through face centered central
composite design and values of surface roughness and hardness after each experiment were measured. Hereafter,
response surface methodology (RSM) was utilized to correlate empirical relationship between process parameters and responses. Further, numerical simulation of process using ABAQUS software has been carried out to
study states of residual stress and plastic equivalent strain under different processing condition. Results indicated
that in order to achieve maximum hardness and minimum surface roughness simultaneously, ultrasonic vibration amplitude of 8 µm, feed rate of 1000 mm/min and static force of 38 N, should be selected. The obtained
optimal results were then experimentally verified and the prediction errors for both the responses were lower
than 10%, implying rigidity of proposed methodology in finding the optimum results. The results obtained by FE
simulation showed that the maximum value and effective depth of compressive residual stress in ultrasonic
assisted process is significantly higher than that of conventional burnishing.

description: This paper examines the role of poverty in Nigeria's fertility transition using household survey data from Nigeria - Kaduna and Lagos states - of which 2425 respondents were sampled. In Nigeria, much attention has not been paid to the link between poverty and fertility preferences. This paper is aimed at filling this research gap. It uses univariate and bivariate analyses in examining the proximate determinants of fertility dynamics with particular emphasis on the role of income poverty. One of the variants of fertility preferences used is the number of children respondents desired after their experiences with economic hardship- declining standard of living. Evidence from the study shows that majority of the respondents from the northern part desired more children than their southern counterparts, which partly conforms to spatial distribution of poverty. Due to higher incidence of poverty among rural dwellers, they now prefer lower fertility formation. In the absence of poverty, however, fertility rate is lower in urban areas due to education and exposure to family planning services. Generally, respondents who agreed that poverty had affected their economic expectations and attitude about large family size and now desire lower fertility rate compared to those that were indifferent or held opposing views. Other proximate determinants of fertility dynamics are women education, religion, spousal communication and spousal approval of contraceptive usage, male dominance, spousal age difference, polygyny and early marriages. In addition to investing in basic education and health care delivery that offer substantial synergies for empowerment and economic opportunities thereby promoting lasting growth and reducing poverty, the following also deserves attention. Special family planning programmes should be targeted at men, particularly in the northern part of the country. Promotion of high level female education because of its synergy with better living conditions contraceptive usage, spousal communication, and low fertility preference. Promotion of peer-wise marital union, monogamy, and late marriages is also important. The need for committed and pro-active promotion of a culture of low fertility preference using the above methods, among others, is fundamental to maintaining this transition to low fertility. Otherwise, the emergence of better economic conditions in the future would reverse the fertility trend.

description: A significant decrease in a number and performance of dairy cows in Slovakia after 1989 has been reflected in the market milk production, its purchase by milk-processing plants, and production and consumption of dairy products. Cow milk yield started increasing only in 1996, but the yield of 4,337 litres per cow on average in 2000 is behind the EU countries. Costs of milk production per litre (9.16 SKK) are still high and substantially different in various regions of Slovakia (8.44- 10.28 SKK). The work analyses causes of this unfavourable situation and discusses the possibilities of reducing milk production cost. Labour-consumption in milk production is also examined and time consumption per dairy cow required in traditional tie housing system and free housing is compared.

description: The last 10 years in the area of efficiency analysis have been characteristic of development of new models and methods as well as a big number of empirical applications in various sectors of economy. Empirical applications, which is also applicable to the sector of agriculture, are based either on radial or additive models. Due to their nature, radial models usually overstate efficiency when nonzero slacks are present because they do not consider non-radial inefficiency of the slacks. Unlike radial models, additive models take into account all sources of inefficiency, i.e. radial and non-radial, however, they do not directly *provide efficiency measure. The work compares the above-mentioned models with the so called global efficiency measures, which are capable of taking into consideration all sources of inefficiency, thus enabling to calculate directly efficiency measure. The global efficiency measure derived from Russell Graph Measure of Technical Efficiency and Enhanced Russell Graph Measure of Technical Efficiency is presented and applied.

description: The H-2A program allows U.S. agricultural employers who anticipate labor shortages to be certified by the U.S. Department of Labor (DOL) to employ guest workers. Over the last decade, the number of jobs certified to be filled by H-2A workers increased from 75,000 in 2010 to 275,000 in 2020. By 2020, H-2A workers accounted for an estimated 10 percent of the average employment on U.S. crop farms. This report uses all H-2A employer applications that DOL certified in fiscal year (FY) 2020 to show how H-2A employment varies by State (and by counties within the top sponsor States), industry, employer size, type of farm employer requesting the workers (labor contractor, individual farmer, or growers association), and type of the third party filing the application on behalf of employers (H-2A agent, lawyer, growers association, or farmers themselves). The report estimates that employers paid $3.5 billion in wages to H-2A workers in FY 2020. The Farm Workforce Modernization Act approved by the U.S. House of Representatives in March 2021 proposed to freeze the Adverse Effect Wage Rate (AEWR), which is a minimum wage for H-2A workers, for 1 year. We find that an AEWR freeze might have saved employers of H-2A workers an estimated $169 million a year. Because freezing the wages of H-2A workers could affect the wages of U.S. domestic workers, the wage savings due to AEWR freezes are of interest for H-2A employers as well as for agricultural employers that only hire non-H-2A workers.

description: We investigate the lattice dynamics in the spin-1/2 frustrated kagome compound herbertsmithite ZnCu$_3$(OH)$_6$Cl$_2$ by a combination of infrared spectroscopy measurements and ab initio density functional theory calculations, and provide an unambiguous assignment of infrared-active lattice vibrations involving in-plane and out-of-plane atom displacements in the kagome layers. Upon cooling, non-thermal red-shifts and broadening appear specifically for modes that deform the kagome layer or affect the Cu-O-Cu bond angles, thus creating pronounced modifications of the antiferromagnetic exchange coupling. Our results indicate the presence of a strong magnetoelastic coupling to the spin system. We discuss the effects of this coupling and its relation to recent experiments reporting a global symmetry reduction of the kagome lattice symmetry.

description: There is a high relationship between food industry production and agricultural production. The level of food industry production is dependent on the efficiency of its own production as well as that of agricultural production. During the last ten to twelve years, the food industry and the agricultural production have decreased to 26-29%, as compared to 1989 (constant prices). The reason was a significant increase of food sales prices and a decrease in consumers' income, which considerably reduced food demand. However, prices depend on the position (power) of traders, especially offering prices (as well as demand ones).

description: Results of magnetic force microscopy (MFM), dc SQUID magnetization, reversed Josephson effect (RJE), and resistance measurements in thin carbon arc (CA) films are presented. The observation of a RJE induced voltage as well as its rf frequency, input amplitude, and temperature dependence reveals the existence of Josephson Junction arrays. Oscillating behavior of the DC SQUID magnetization reminiscent of the Fraunhofer-like behavior of superconducting (SC) critical current in the range of 10000 Oe has been observed. The dc SQUID magnetization measurement indicates a possible elementary 102 nm SC loop; this is compared to MFM direct observations of magnetic clusters with a median size of 165 nm. All these data are consistent with the existence of a high temperature SC-like phase or fluctuations up to 650 K. It is proposed to expose such CA film to energetic particle (neutron or ion) bombardment to verify this hypothesis. Such bombardment would change both the structure of film and consequently the experimental measurements. In addition such bombardment-induced changes will provide a basis for particle detectors utilizing the Josephson effect.

description: We study the collapse in spherical symmetry of a massless scalar field minimally coupled to gravity using the semiclassical equations that are expected from loop quantum gravity. We find critical behavior of the mass as a function of the parameters of the initial data similar to that found by Choptuik in classical general relativity for a large set of initial data and values of the polymerization parameter. Contrary to wide expectations for quantum gravity, our semiclassical field equations have an exact scale invariance, as do the classical field equations. As one would then expect, we numerically find that the phase transition is second order, again as in the classical case.

description: Variations in growth performances across regions of the world have been of significant interest to development economists. Prior to the spectacular growth of many of the East Asian economies, a variety of structural and non-structural factors were employed to explain the differences in growth_ performances. Since that time, however, regional variation in growth achievement has been explained in terms of differences in savings and investment performances. It has been widely observed in the literature that some regions ( e.g., Sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America) tend to save and invest a smaller proportion of their aggregate outputs than did their more dynamic counterparts (e.g., Asia and the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development Countries (OECD)). Our interest in the linkage between savings, investment and economic growth is not new in the economic development literature. The works of Arthur Lewis in the 1950s, for example, portray the central task of economic development as that of raising the proportion of national income saved and invested from 4-5 per cent to 12-15 per cent (Lewis 1954). Recent theoretical perspectives, typified by endogenous growth models, suggest that high investment rates can result in a permanent increase in an economy's overall growth rates (Romer:·1986; Lucas 1988). Both theoretical approaches identify investment as a fundamental factor in economic growth. In contrast to developed countries, where growth- problems were viewed in the Keynesian sense of too much saving and too little spending, investment and, hence, economic growth in developing countries were constrained by the insufficiency of savings (James, et al 1987). In this context, evidence from development experiences strongly suggests that the best performing countries (even among the developing ones), have achieved this status largely on the basis of their high rates of savings and investment

description: Using unique longitudinal administrative tax panel data for the District of Columbia (DC), we assess the combined effect of the DC supplemental earned income tax credit (EITC) and the federal EITC on poverty and income dynamics within Washington, DC, from 2001 to 2011. The EITC in DC merits investigation, as the DC supplement to the federal credit is the largest in the nation. The supplemental DC EITC was enacted in 2000, and has been expanded from 10 percent of the federal credit in 2001 to 40 percent as of 2009. To implement the study, we estimate least squares models with 0/1 dependent variables to estimate the likelihood of net-EITC income above poverty and near-poverty thresholds. We also estimate the likelihood of earnings growth and income stabilization from the EITC. To identify the effect of the EITC, we exploit variation in the EITC subsidy rate from 2008 to 2009, when an additional EITC bracket of 45 percent was added for workers with three or more dependent children, up from 40 percent in the previous year for workers with two or more children. We also estimate a model examining the impact of city-level changes to the EITC. The structure and richness of our data enable us to control for tax filer fixed effects, an important innovation from many previous EITC studies. Overall, we find that the combined EITC raises the likelihood of net-EITC income above poverty and near poverty by as much as 9 percent, with the largest consistent effects accruing to single-parent families.

description: By means of a Monte Carlo code that accounts for Compton scattering and photoabsorption followed by recombination, we have investigated the radiation transfer of Ly alpha, He alpha, and recombination continua photons of H- and He-like C, N, O, and Ne produced in the photoionized atmosphere of a relativistic black hole accretion disk. We find that photoelectric opacity causes significant attenuation of photons with energies above the O VIII K-edge; that the conversion efficiencies of these photons into lower-energy lines and recombination continua are high; and that accounting for this reprocessing significantly (by factors of 21% to 105%) increases the flux of the Ly alpha and He alpha emission lines of H- and He-like C and O escaping the disk atmosphere.

description: We present an extension of the multiparticle collision dynamics method for flows with complex interfaces, including supramolecular near-contact interactions mimicking the effect of surfactants. The new method is demonstrated for the case of (i) short range repulsion of droplets in close contact, (ii) arrested phase separation and (iii) different pattern formation during spinodal decomposition of binary mixtures.

interaction effect of process factors for different material. It is found from the results that for
conventional burnishing process 5000 mm/min feed rate and 5 pass number causes highest
surface hardness; while, for ultrasonic assisted burnishing, the highest hardness is attained at
1000 mm/min feed rate and 5 pass number. On the other hand, it is found from the results that
exerting ultrasonic vibration significantly enhances the hardness value and hardened depth. Also,
it is found that irrespective to type of operation and material, increase of feed rate causes higher
roughness; while, increase of pass number causes reduction of roughness. Furthermore, surface
roughness of ultrasonic assisted burnishing is lower than that of conventional burnishing process.
This enhancement is due to association of both static and dynamic loading in ultrasonic assisted
burnishing process that causes microstructure modification and limits the elastic recovery of the
surface.

description: We report the discovery of a new dwarf spheroidal satellite of M31, Andromeda IX, based on resolved stellar photometry from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Using both SDSS and public archival data we have estimated its distance and other physical properties, and compared these to the properties of a previously known dwarf spheroidal companion, Andromeda V, also observed by SDSS. Andromeda IX is the lowest surface brightness galaxy found to date (mu_{V} ~ 26.8 mag arcsec^-2), and at the distance we estimate from the position of the tip of Andromeda IX's red giant branch, (m - M)_{0} ~ 24.5 (805 kpc), Andromeda IX would also be the faintest galaxy known (M_{V} ~ -8.3).

description: We present infrared K'- (2.1 micron) and L'-band (3.8 micron) high-spatial-resolution (<0.3") imaging observations of 17 nearby (z < 0.17) ultraluminous infrared galaxies (ULIRGs) assisted with the adaptive optics of the Subaru Telescope. We search for compact red K'-L' color emission as the indicator of luminous active galactic nuclei (AGNs) due to AGN-heated hot dust emission. Two luminous dual AGN candidates are revealed. Combining these results with those of our previous study, we can state that the detected fraction of luminous dual AGNs in nearby ULIRGs is much less than unity (<20%), even when infrared wavelengths >2 micron are used that should be sensitive to buried AGNs due to small dust extinction effects. For ULIRGs with resolved multiple nuclear K'-band emission, we estimate the activation of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) at individual galaxy nuclei in the form of AGN luminosity normalized by SMBH mass inferred from host galaxy stellar luminosity. We confirm a trend that more massive SMBHs in K'-band brighter primary galaxy nuclei are generally more active, with higher SMBH-mass-normalized AGN luminosity than less massive SMBHs in K'-band fainter secondary galaxy nuclei, as predicted by numerical simulations of gas-rich major galaxy mergers. In two sources, the presence of even infrared elusive extremely deeply buried AGNs is indicated by comparisons with available (sub)millimeter data. Non-synchronous SMBH activation (i.e., less activation of less massive SMBHs) and the possible presence of such infrared elusive AGNs may be responsible for the small fraction of infrared-detected luminous dual AGNs in nearby merging ULIRGs.
