description: This dissertation explores contemporary lives and dynamics of the abandoned synagogues in provincial Poland. In the foreground of this study are several prewar synagogue buildings that have not been restored and adapted by the country’s heritage and tourist industries, as my central argument revolves around the special affordances and qualities that these structures preserve and sustain in their abandoned forms and becomings. The deserted synagogue in Polish towns and villages exists as an extraordinary kind of ruin, being simultaneously connected to a pre-modern past, architecture, and tradition, and the modern history of dereliction and decay. As it finds itself in this peculiar in-between zone, the abandoned synagogue of Poland has a rare ability to invoke the perception and framing of both the pre- (classical) and postindustrial (modern) ruin. I underscore the material fluidity and aesthetic dimension of these structures, by zooming in on their posthuman life and vigorous unfolding of strange new spaces, things, meanings, and sensations.
      The aesthetics of the abandoned synagogues are dynamic and interactive, being inextricably attached to how we encounter and sense their reality and materiality. This thesis highlights the mercurial and affective aesthetic experience of Poland’s deserted synagogues that is being formed and transformed during these immediate encounters with material spaces and things. I suggest that a re-enchantment of the synagogue takes place in the ruin, wherein non-human actors and activities (e.g. plants, animals, the weather) continually generate the wonderment, strangeness, and sacrality of these places. Hence, the abandoned synagogue is here approached and perceived as a form that I call the ruin temple: a space whose deeply flowing past and dynamism of decay and life, create a present that allures and enchants, affording a solitary, mystical, and sensuous immersion in its profound sphere of awe and wonder.
A quantum open system model of molecular battery charged by excitons

description: The analytically tractable model employing Quantum Markovian Master Equations, derived by weak coupling procedure and satisfying complete positivity, is proposed to describe a model of molecular battery charged by a non-equilibrium excitonic reservoir. The excitons are produced by non-equilibrium processes involving, e.g. light absorption and chemical reactions. Various relations concerning the efficiency of the involved processes of energy transfer and the stability of battery are discussed. The model can be treated as an initial step in applications of mathematically sound version of Quantum Theory of Open Systems to complex processes of energy transfer in biological system and man-made devices based on organic materials.

description: The paper provides a new framework for the description of linearized adiabatic lagrangian perturbations and stability of differentially rotating newtonian stars. In doing so it overcomes problems in a previous framework by Dyson and Schutz and provides the basis of a rigorous analysis of the stability of such stars. For this the governing equation of the oscillations is written as a first order system in time. From that system the generator of time evolution is read off and a Hilbert space is given where it generates a strongly continuous group. As a consequence the governing equation has a well-posed initial value problem. The spectrum of the generator relevant for stability considerations is shown to be equal to the spectrum of an operator polynomial whose coefficients can be read off from the governing equation. Finally, we give for the first time sufficient criteria for stability in the form of inequalities for the coefficients of the polynomial. These show that a negative canonical energy of the star does not necessarily indicate instability. It is still unclear whether these criteria are strong enough to prove stability for realistic stars.

description: On 2019 January 5 a streamer associated with the 4--10 km main-belt asteroid (6478)~Gault was detected by the ATLAS sky survey, a rare discovery of activity around a main-belt asteroid. Archival data from ATLAS and Pan-STARRS1 show the trail in early December 2018, but not between 2010 and January 2018. The feature has significantly changed over one month, perfectly matching predictions of pure dust dynamical evolution and changes in observing geometry for a short release of dust around 2018 October 28. Follow-up observations with HST show a second narrow trail corresponding to a brief release of dust on 2018 December 30. Both releases occurred with negligible velocity. We find the dust grains to be fairly large, with power-law size distributions in the $10^{-5} - 10^{-3}$~m range and power-law indices of $\sim -1.5$. Three runs of ground-based data find a signature of $\sim 2\,\rm h$ rotation, close to the rotational limit, suggesting that the activity is the result of landslides or reconfigurations after YORP spin-up.

description: We explicitly analyse $O(α')$ corrections to heterotic supergravity on toroidal orbifolds and their resolutions, which play important roles in string phenomenology as well as moduli stabilisation. Using a conformal factor ansatz that is valid only for four dimensional geometries, we obtain a closed expression for the $O(α')$ metric corrections in the case of several orbifold limits of K3, namely $T^4/\mathbb{Z}_n$ where $n=2,3,4,6$. However, we find that non-standard embedding requires the inclusion of five-branes on such orbifolds. We also numerically investigate the behaviour around orbifold fixed points by considering the metric correction on the resolution of a $\mathbb{C}^2/\mathbb{Z}_2$ singularity. In this case, a non-trivial conformal factor can be obtained in non-standard embedding even without five-branes. In the same manner, we generalise our analysis to study metric corrections on $T^6/\mathbb{Z}_3$ and its resolution described by a complex line bundle over $\mathbb{CP}^2$. Further prospects of utilising these $O(α')$ corrected metrics as a novel approach in obtaining realistic or semi-realistic Yukawa couplings are discussed.

description: Currently, Eurocentric theories and practices of urban teachers and students are often studied under a White gaze of expected deficits. Much of this research is quantitative (e.g., documenting the number of teachers of color); the qualitative research that documents the experiences of people of color usually lacks the personal lived experiences of racial marginalization that only one who has endured them can tell. Addressing this research problem, in this dissertation, I share findings generated from a 9-month autoethnographic study of my experiences in light of the blockade of anti-Black epistemologies and ontologies in (music) teacher education. Framed by Critical Race Theory, Critical Pedagogy, and Postcolonial Theory, the aim of this study is to examine the lived experiences and narratives of a Black-queer doctoral student and teacher educator—in dialogue with majority Black and Latinx preservice early childhood and elementary students in his music teacher education course—considering how Eurocentric frameworks position teachers and students. Inquiries into how curricular stories are constructed as mirrors and windows (Bishop, 1990) are woven to reveal the ways in which dominant theories and ideologies affect the discourses and identities of soon-to-be teachers and point toward the need for students and educators of color to be taught to analyze and name injustices documented within life histories, all the while transforming oppressive encounters to affirm individual and collective humanity. While the focus of this self-study and autoethnography is the researcher, this ethnographic composition of teaching and teacher education is informed by the researcher’s teacher education practices, experiences, and learnings in the context of an early childhood and elementary teacher education course for non-music majors at a primarily-Hispanic serving urban institution of higher education. It examines classroom discursive interactions and archival data (e.g. journal reflections, course assignments) using ethnographic research methods and critical narrative analysis (Souto-Manning, 2014) to make sense of data. In doing so, it co-constructs a polyphonic space for multiple perspectives to stand in counterpoint (conflict), reimagining and reclaiming the discourses that purport to hold knowledge about peoples of color lived experiences. Findings are rendered by engagement with a range of Afrocentric visual and multimodal data.
Assessment of arsenic exposure in a residential area located on mine tailing : a case study

Year: 2009

description: During the 1950s to the early 1960s tailing from the Campbell Mine were deposited into an area that would eventually become the 6th/7th Street section of the Balmertown townsite. Investigation of the area in the early 1990s revealed that tailing containing arsenic minerals were underlying eleven homes. Many of the tailing samples collected contained total arsenic levels greater than 1000 mg/kg. In 1993 an arsenic exposure assessment was undertaken to determine the affect of the arsenic contained in the tailing on the health of residents in the study area. As an alternative to adopting default values for an EPA exposure model a comprehensive background database was developed. The data was used to undertake EPA exposure calculations and to perform a Monte Carlo analysis to estimate the potential range of exposures in the area. A separate urinalysis study was performed to validate the results of the exposure assessment. The results of the assessment indicated that the total lifetime exposure of arsenic to residents in the study area did not significantly increase due to the arsenic minerals in the tailing. The limited exposure was partially due to the low levels of arsenic in the identified exposure pathways for residents and the limited bioavailability of the arsenic in the mineral sulphide form. It was concluded that the arsenic minerals did not significantly increase the risk to human health and therefore the removal of the tailing and overlying soil was not required.
Life of the Non-Living: Nationalization, Language and the Narrative of “Revival” in Modern Hebrew Literary Discourse

description: This dissertation critically examines the question of language revival in late nineteenth-century and early twentieth-century Hebrew literature. Focusing on major texts that participate in the political and aesthetic endeavor of reviving Hebrew as an exclusive national language, this study traces the narrative of revival and explores the changes and iterations it underwent in the course of several decades, from the 1890s to the early 1920s. Informed by a wide range of critical literary theory, I analyze the primary tropes used to articulate the process whereby Hebrew came to inhabit new discursive roles.
      Building on close readings of canonical texts by authors ranging from Ahad Ha’am and Mikha Yosef Berdichevsky to Hayim Nahman Bialik, Rachel Katznelson, and Yosef Hayim Brenner, I argue that while modern Hebrew literature largely rejected the philological assumption that Hebrew was a dead language, it nevertheless produced a discourse around the notion of “revival,” in a manner that deferred the possibility of perceiving Hebrew as fully living. My readings show that while many of these texts contemplate linguistic transformation in terms of revitalization or birth, the national mission of language revival is in fact entwined with mourning, and ultimately produces the object of revival as neither dead nor fully alive. Dwelling on the ambivalence and suspension of that moment, and examining a range of nuances in its articulation, I explore the roles that Hebrew language and literature play in nationalization, Zionism, and the constitution of a new Hebrew subjectivity.
Enriching Cultural Heritage Through Semantic Annotations: Prototyping and Visualizing Complex Information in the Digital Humanities
Creators: name: Renzetti, Stefano
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025
Subjects: subject: Semantic web
subject: User-Computer Interface

description: This thesis investigates how semantic annotation techniques can enrich digital images in the cultural heritage domain, addressing the challenges posed by fragmented data and limited interpretative depth. Building on the IIIF standard to ensure interoperability, it introduces the LISA (Linked Interpretative Semantic Annotation) model to capture multi-layered visual meaning and scholarly uncertainty. The thesis explores how Panofsky’s three-level iconographical method can be practically implemented within a collaborative environment, illustrated by the VISTA (Visual Interpretative Semantic Tagging Application) prototype. By integrating semantic web ontologies, structured JSON-LD data, and graph-based visualization, the project demonstrates how interpretative plurality, provenance, and complex meaning can be explicitly modeled. The findings highlight the potential of semantic annotation not only to enhance discoverability and curation of cultural objects but also to foster collaborative scholarship that treats images as rich sources of knowledge rather than mere supplementary records.

 Notes:— Sporocadaceae, also known as pestalotioid fungi, was introduced by Corda (1842) to accommodate Sporocadus as the type genus. Species of Sporocadaceae are cosmopolitan and have diverse lifestyles as endophytes, plant pathogens, saprobes, and associated with a wide range of host plants (Bonthond et al. 2018, Liu et al. 2019, Hyde et al. 2020a). Typically, appendage bearing coelomycetes genera are included in this family and have been subjected to several taxonomic treatments (Nag Raj 1993, Jaklitsch et al. 2016, Maharachchikumbura et al. 2016, Liu et al. 2019). Thirty genera are accepted in Sporocadaceae (Liu et al. 2019; Hyde et al. 2020a). In this study, we follow Hyde et al. (2020a) as the most recent treatment for Sporocadaceae.

I very briefly mention a number of particle physics mechanisms for generating magnetic fields in the early universe, but the emphasis is on a review of the field theoretic aspects of the developments of these fields, mainly on the occurence of inverse cascades, i.e. generation of order from disorder in the sense of transfer of energy from smaller to larger scales. In this connection it is also briefly reviewed how the Silk effect (photon diffusion) is counteracted by the inverse cascade.

description: We predict that the $a_0^0(980)$-$f_0(980)$ mixing would lead to large CP violation. We calculate the localized direct CP asymmetry in the decays $B^\pm \to f_0(980) [a_0^0(980)] π^\pm \to π^+ π^- π^\pm $ via the $a_0^0(980)$-$f_0(980)$ mixing mechanism based on the hypothetical $q\bar q$ structures of $a^0_0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$ in the QCD factorization. It is shown that there is a peak for CP violation, which could be as large as 58%, when the invariance mass of $ππ$ is near the masses of $a^0_0(980)$ and $f_0(980)$. Since the CP asymmetry is sensitive to the $a_0^0(980)$-$f_0(980)$ mixing, measuring the CP violating parameter in the aforementioned decays could provide a new way to verify the existence of the $a_0^0(980)$-$f_0(980)$ mixing and be helpful in clarifying the configuration nature of the light scalar mesons.

Fording River revisited : a review of environmental projects at Fording Coal Limited’s operations at Fording River over the last 25 years
Creators: name: Wood, J. Alex
name: Berdusco, Roger Joseph
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Over the last 25 years Fording Coal Limited has completed a number of environmental projects at their Fording River Operations located in the southeast coal block approximately 30 km north of Elkford, BC. These projects involved major river diversions, and water quality control settling ponds, stream enhancement projects for cutthroat trout including the development of an entire side channel for fisheries mitigation, fish passage structures and wildlife habitat restoration. Some of these projects date back to the late 1970's and have been in operation for over 20 years. Many of these projects have been presented at previous Mine Reclamation Symposiums, starting with the first symposium in 1976. Some of the questions that are often asked are: what will that river diversion or stream enhancement project look like 20 years from now? will the river and/or side channel still be natural and productive? Will the vegetation disturbed by construction return to its former abundance? And how did these projects survive the major June 1995 flood that did considerable damage in the Elk River Valley and tributary watersheds? This paper and pictorial overview will compare the projects that exist now to those that were constructed and presented at the Mine Reclamation Symposium over 20 years ago. Projects and design concepts that have worked well will be discussed, and where improvements could be made, these will be highlighted. Many of the above questions will be answered.

description: It was recently shown that the renormalization of quantum field theory is organized by the Hopf algebra of decorated rooted trees, whose coproduct identifies the divergences requiring subtraction and whose antipode achieves this. We automate this process in a few lines of recursive symbolic code, which deliver a finite renormalized expression for any Feynman diagram. We thus verify a representation of the operator product expansion, which generalizes Chen's lemma for iterated integrals. The subset of diagrams whose forest structure entails a unique primitive subdivergence provides a representation of the Hopf algebra ${\cal H}_R$ of undecorated rooted trees. Our undecorated Hopf algebra program is designed to process the 24,213,878 BPHZ contributions to the renormalization of 7,813 diagrams, with up to 12 loops. We consider 10 models, each in 9 renormalization schemes. The two simplest models reveal a notable feature of the subalgebra of Connes and Moscovici, corresponding to the commutative part of the Hopf algebra ${\cal H}_T$ of the diffeomorphism group: it assigns to Feynman diagrams those weights which remove zeta values from the counterterms of the minimal subtraction scheme. We devise a fast algorithm for these weights, whose squares are summed with a permutation factor, to give rational counterterms.

These loops were connecting a plage region with sunspot periphery (Loop I) and a sunspot umbra (Loop II). We used Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) and Goode Solar Telescope (GST) data to describe the phenomenon and understand its causes. The study indicates loop brightening episodes were associated with magnetic flux emergence and cancellation processes observed in SDO's Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) and GST's Near InfraRed Imaging Spectrapolarimeter (NIRIS) data. The observed activity was driven by magnetic reconnection between small-scale emerging dipoles and large-scale pre-existing fields, suggesting that the reconnection occurred in the lower chromosphere at the edge of an extended plage region, where the loops were rooted. We suggest that plasma, evaporated during these reconnection events, gradually filled the loops and as it cooled the visible density front propagated from one footpoint of the loop to another at a rate of 90-110 km s$^{-1}$. This study also indicates that at least some of the bright loops seen in SDO Atmospheric Imaging Assembly images rooted in sunspot umbra may be heated due to magnetic activity taking place at the remote (non-sunspot) footpoint.

description: The vacuum cosmological model on the manifold $R \times M_1 \times \ldots \times M_n$ describing the evolution of $n$ Einstein spaces of non-zero curvatures is considered. For $n = 2$ the Einstein equations are reduced to the Abel (ordinary differential) equation and solved, when $(N_1 = $dim $ M_1, N_2 = $ dim$ M_2) = (6,3), (5,5), (8,2)$. The Kasner-like behaviour of the solutions near the singularity $t_s \to +0$ is considered ($t_s$ is synchronous time). The exceptional ("Milne-type") solutions are obtained for arbitrary $n$. For $n=2$ these solutions are attractors for other ones, when $t_s \to + \infty$. For dim $ M = 10, 11$ and $3 \leq n \leq 5$ certain two-parametric families of solutions are obtained from $n=2$ ones using "curvature-splitting" trick. In the case $n=2$, $(N_1, N_2)= (6,3)$ a family of non-singular solutions with the topology $R^7 \times M_2$ is found.

description: Earth’s organisms are exposed to day-night cycles. These periodic changes in environmental factors, such as temperature and light exposure, trigger regulatory processes that coordinate physiological adaptations in organisms. Circadian organisms, i.e., most eukaryotes and some phototrophic bacteria, undergo autonomous 24-hour biological rhythms that are synchronized to day-night cycles via sensing light cues. However, the extent to which non-phototrophic bacteria tune their physiology to diurnal cycles and exhibit rhythmic behavior has been underexplored. For my thesis work, I investigated how the chemotrophic bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa responds to light and temperature signals. This metabolically versatile bacterium regulates its physiology through a vast array of environmental sensing mechanisms and has evolved multiple strategies to cope with redox imbalances. This thesis seeks to address how P. aeruginosa coordinates its metabolic and redox-balancing programs in response to light and temperature changes that occur in its environmental niche. In Chapter 1, I will present background information on relevant concepts such as biological rhythms and photosensory mechanisms and discuss how these principles are connected to physiological adaptations and metabolic plasticity in both phototrophic and non-phototrophic organisms, with a specific focus on chemotrophic bacteria. In Chapter 2, I will demonstrate that P. aeruginosa biofilm development is attenuated by light and that this process is regulated by the integration of light and redox signals. My work presented in Chapter 3 will provide evidence that the transcriptomic and metabolic landscape of P. aeruginosa is vastly reorganized in response to light/dark cycles. In the Chapter 4, I will explore how this reprogramming is manifested through activity by the respiratory machinery and I will demonstrate that P. aeruginosa undergoes intrinsic respiratory oscillations. As an opportunistic pathogen, P. aeruginosa will experience circadian-controlled changes during infection of a (circadian) host through host immune activity as well as exposure to cyclic environmental factors like light and temperature. I will discuss how environmental sensing is relevant for P. aeruginosa’s adaptation to its host-associated lifestyle. In conclusion, the research presented in this thesis establishes that P. aeruginosa exhibits an intricate physiological response to environmental signals, particularly light and temperature. This thesis contributes to a growing body of work that underscores how bacteria have evolved intricate mechanisms to integrate information about their environmental habitat, including host-associated conditions.

description: The wave functions of the Haldane-Rezayi paired Hall state have been previously described by a non-unitary conformal field theory with central charge c=-2. Moreover, a relation with the c=1 unitary Weyl fermion has been suggested. We construct the complete unitary theory and show that it consistently describes the edge excitations of the Haldane-Rezayi state. Actually, we show that the unitary (c=1) and non-unitary (c=-2) theories are related by a local map between the two sets of fields and by a suitable change of conjugation. The unitary theory of the Haldane-Rezayi state is found to be the same as that of the 331 paired Hall state. Furthermore, the analysis of modular invariant partition functions shows that no alternative unitary descriptions are possible for the Haldane-Rezayi state within the class of rational conformal field theories with abelian current algebra. Finally, the known c=3/2 conformal theory of the Pfaffian state is also obtained from the 331 theory by a reduction of degrees of freedom which can be physically realized in the double-layer Hall systems.

description: Suite à la Commission de vérité et réconciliation du Canada (CVR, 2008-2015), les chercheurs envisagent comment cette institutionnalisation de la réconciliation peut créer un changement réel dans les relations avec les peuples autochtones. L'éducation a été identifiée comme jouant un rôle vital en induisant un dialogue interculturel. À cet égard, l'un des éléments importants des appels à l'action lancés par la CVR consistait à élaborer des stratégies d'éducation du public afin de permettre aux Canadiens de se familiariser avec l'histoire des peuples autochtones. Alors que l'éducation peut être essentielle dans les processus de réconciliation autocritique, plusieurs chercheurs ont exprimé leurs préoccupations concernant la « réconciliation en tant que recolonisation » (Alfred, 2016). Fondée sur la résurgence (Simpson, 2011) et le colonialisme de peuplement (Coulthard, 2015b), cette thèse présente des expériences et perspectives anicinapek de la réconciliation, ainsi qu’une initiative innovatrice proposant de nouvelles avenues pour l’éducation aux réalités coloniales des peuples autochtones. Depuis environ 10 ans, la communauté semi-nomade de Kitcisakik, située dans les limites de la réserve faunique La Vérendrye dans la région de l'Abitibi-Témiscamingue au Québec, accueille des étudiants allochtones de niveau secondaire, Cégep et universitaire, afin de partager le savoir anicinape et vivre l'expérience du lien à la terre et au territoire. Ce qui a commencé comme un désir de célébrer et de transmettre la culture anicinape tout en se réappropriant des territoires plus vastes de leur terre ancestrale, est devenu une initiative d’économie sociale offrant aux étudiants un séjour en immersion de 3 à 10 jours. Cette recherche présente, dans un premier temps, de nombreux témoignages d’étudiants qui ont expérimenté des méthodes d’apprentissage des cultures et des enjeux sociopolitiques autochtones par le biais d’une expérience éducative basée sur la terre, considérée comme une contribution à la réconciliation. Dans un deuxième temps, en tenant compte de l’expérience de la communauté et de son initiative favorisant le dialogue interculturel, différentes perspectives de la réconciliation sont envisagées, en mettant l’emphase sur ce que cela signifie pour les Anicinapek de Kitcisakik. En plus d’encourager le dialogue culturel et le respect mutuel, cette communauté nous rappelle que les enjeux centraux à la problématique de la réconciliation se situent dans un meilleur partage du territoire.
Barcombe and Beddingham: Roman villas from Wealden iron?

description: Sussex Archaeological Collections, 153, 63-71
description: This paper puts forward the archaeological evidence to suggest that Barcombe and Beddingham Roman villas, and the Romano-British settlement at Upper Wellingham, were not only part of the immediate agricultural landscape, but also linked to the wider industrial landscape which had iron production at its core. It also explores how the economic results of an expanding iron industry could have provided the necessary wealth to support these Romanised houses and a substantial trading settlement in this rural location.

description: In this study, we present the observations of extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) waves associated with an M6.5 flare on 2013 April 11. The event was observed by Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) in different EUV channels. The flare was also associated with a halo CME and type II radio bursts. We observed both fast and slow components of the EUV wave. The speed of the fast component, which is identified as a fast-mode MHD wave, varies in the range from 600 to 640 km s^-1 , whereas the speed of the slow-component is ~140 km s^-1 . We observed an unusual phenomenon that, as the fast-component EUV wave passes through two successive magnetic quasi-separatrix layers (QSLs), two stationary wave fronts are formed locally. We propose that part of the outward-propagating fast-mode EUV wave is converted into slow-mode magnetohydrodynamic waves, which are trapped in local magnetic field structures, forming successive stationary fronts. Along the other direction, the fast-component EUV wave also creates oscillations in a coronal loop lying ~225 Mm away from the flare site. We have computed the energy of the EUV wave to be of the order of 10^20 J.

description: By adopting the standard definition of diffeomorphisms for a Regge surface we give an exact expression of the Liouville action both for the sphere and the torus topology in the discretized case. The results are obtained in a general way by choosing the unique self--adjoint extension of the Lichnerowicz operator satisfying the Riemann--Roch relation. We also give the explicit form of the integration measure for the conformal factor. For the sphere topology the theory is exactly invariant under the $SL(2,C)$ transformations, while for the torus topology we have exact translational and modular invariance. In the continuum limit the results flow into the well known expressions.

Ligand-Protein Interactions in Cytochromes

description: Cytochromes are found in all living beings and play an essential role in life processes. The two proteins studied in this thesis, cytochrome P450 carries out enzymatic reactions, metabolizes drugs, and synthesizes steroids while cytochrome c553 is a protein involved in electron transfer and photosynthesis. Despite the diverse functions cytochromes have, they all have the same core, a heme porphyrin that makes this class of proteins very interesting and worth studying. The cryogenic crystal structure of cytochrome P450 BM-3, a bacterial model enzyme for mammalian P450s, shows the substrate N-palmitoylglycine (NPG) too far away from the heme to be the catalytically relevant binding mode. Previous evidence suggests that the substrate moves as a function of temperature and molecular dynamics simulations have shown that at room temperature the ligand is positioned correctly for chemistry. However, how the substrate moves and the correct position of the substrate is not known. In order to gain more insight on the position of the substrate, we conducted solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (SSNMR) experiments, enzymatic assays, and solved a new crystal structure. Enzymatic assays determined there is a kinetic preference for room temperature and a large difference in Km and Kd, indicates multiple conformations of the ligand, some of which are unproductive. SSNMR experiments also provided evidence for multiple conformations since changes in the chemical shift of NPG showed the terminal region of the ligand is moving as a function of temperature and the solvent exposed region of the ligand has dynamics between multiple conformations. In addition, our new crystal structure shows the first structural evidence of the solvent exposed end of NPG interacting with Arg47, which is involved in substrate binding shown by our R47E mutation. However, in our cryogenic crystal structure the ligand is still in a conformation not amenable for catalysis. Therefore, we also laid the foundation to obtain structural information on the enzyme at room temperature by assigning the ligand, identifying important alanine marker peaks, and determining the best method is selectively labeled samples with TEDOR experiments. In addition, cytochrome c553 was used as a model to evaluate the role of the thioether linkages in c-type cytochromes. Since c-type and b-type cytochromes are the most abundant and c-type cytochromes are biosynthesized from apo-protein and b-type heme, the fundamental question arises as to why Nature has made the covalent attachment in c-type cytochromes. We performed thermodynamic analyses and structural studies of a c-to-b conversion in a mutated cytochrome c, in which the thioether bonds cannot form, to determine the covalent attachment is necessary for structure and function of c-type cytochromes.

description: Recent recognition of a building stone, now named Lavant stone, has led to investigations of the quarry site, its history and the use of the stone. Lavant stone is a distinctive phosphatic chalk with fossils, particularly sharks' teeth. It was used in the later Roman period and extensive medieval use ranged from Chichester Cathedral and Boxgrove Priory to parish churches. The historical use of Lavant stone is considered, and the social and economic influences upon its distribution pattern and opportunities for further research are discussed. Includes

description: A model for a noncommutative scalar field coupled to gravity is proposed via an extension of the Moyal product. It is shown that there are solutions compatible with homogeneity and isotropy to first non-trivial order in the perturbation of the star-product, with the gravity sector described by a flat Robertson-Walker metric. We show that in the slow-roll regime of a typical chaotic inflationary scenario, noncommutativity has negligible impact.
