description: Σκοπός της εργασίας είναι η μελέτη της κινητοποίησης για απεξάρτηση μεταξύ χρηστών με εμπειρία φυλάκισης. Αξιοποιώντας τα αυτοβιογραφικά κείμενα πενήντα ατόμων σε προγράμματα θεραπείας του ΚΕΘΕΑ και εφαρμόζοντας τη μέθοδο της ανάλυσης περιεχομένου, εξετάστηκαν τα στάδια ετοιμότητας, οι περιπτώσεις υποτροπής, οι κινητήριοι και ανασταλτικοί παράγοντες στη βάση του Διαθεωρητικού Μοντέλου αλλαγής. Τα ευρήματα αποτυπώνουν την πορεία προς την απεξάρτηση ως μια προσπάθεια κατά την οποία η κινητοποίηση σε επίπεδο συμπεριφοράς απαντάται μακράν συχνότερα ενώ η υποτροπή εγείρει βιωματικές και γνωστικές πτυχές της ετοιμότητας για αλλαγή. Οι σημαντικότεροι παράγοντες κινητοποίησης της αλλαγής είναι ένα αρνητικό συναισθηματικό φορτίο, τα σχέδια για το μέλλον και μια κατάσταση συνειδητοποίησης σχετικά με τον προσανατολισμό στη ζωή και την αναγκαιότητα δράσης, ενώ η επιθυμία για χρήση είναι ο κυριότερος ανασταλτικός παράγοντας. Συμπερασματικά, η κινητοποίηση για απεξάρτηση νοείται ως ένα συνεχές φάσμα ετοιμότητας, κατά το οποίο τα άτομα σε διαφορετικές φάσεις επιδεικνύουν διαφορετική εμπλοκή ως προς την αλλαγή.
description: The objective of this paper is to study the motivation for substance dependence recovery among users that have experienced imprisonment. Capitalizing on the autobiographical texts of fifty individuals that received treatment at KETHEA and employing the content analysis method, stages of change, relapse cases, driving and inhibiting factors were examined on the basis of Transtheoretical Model of change. The findings illustrate the course of recovery as an endeavour in which the behavioural aspect of motivation occurs far more often while relapse arouses experiential and cognitive aspects of readiness to change. The leading motivating factors for change are a negative emotional tone, plans for the future and a state of awareness regarding orientation in life and the need to take action, whereas craving is the main inhibiting factor. In conclusion, motivation for substance dependence recovery is interpreted as a continuous range of readiness, during which individuals are differently involved with regards to change.

Continuous star formation in IZw18

description: We study the dynamical and chemical evolution of a galaxy similar to IZw18 under the assumption of a continuous star formation during bursts. We adopt a 2-D hydrocode coupled with detailed chemical yields originating from SNeII, SNeIa and from single intermediate-mass stars. Different nucleosynthetic yields and different IMF slopes are tested. In most of the explored cases, a galactic wind develops, mostly carrying out of the galaxy the metal-enriched gas produced by the burst itself. The chemical species with the largest escape probabilities are Fe and N. Consequently, we predict that the [$α$/Fe] and [$α$/N] ratios outside the galaxy are lower than inside. In order to reproduce the chemical composition of IZw18, the best choice seems to be the adoption of the yields of Meynet & Maeder (2002) which take into account stellar rotation, although these authors do not follow the whole evolution of all the stars. Models with a flat IMF (x=0.5) seem to be able to better reproduce the chemical properties of IZw18, but they inject in the gas a much larger amount of energy and the resulting galactic wind is very strong, at variance with observations. We also predict the evolution of the abundances in the \hi medium and compare them with recent {\sl FUSE} observations.

Spontaneous velocity alignment in Motility-induced Phase Separation

Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We study a system of purely repulsive spherical self-propelled particles in the minimal set-up inducing Motility-Induced Phase Separation (MIPS). We show that, even if explicit alignment interactions are absent, a growing order in the velocities of the clustered particles accompanies MIPS. Particles arrange into aligned or vortex-like domains. Their sizes increase as the persistence of the self-propulsion grows, an effect that is quantified studying the spatial correlation function of the velocities. We explain the velocity-alignment by unveiling a hidden alignment interaction of the Vicsek-like form, induced by the interplay between steric interactions and self-propulsion. As a consequence, we argue that the MIPS transition cannot be fully understood in terms of a scalar field, the density, since the collective orientation of the velocities should be included in effective coarse-grained descriptions.

description: The research motivation behind this thesis is to expand the information that can currently be extracted from an ex vivo biological sample via light-sheet fluorescence microscopy (LSFM) by enhancing the achievable resolution at an increased penetration depth. LSFM has already been used considerably for various biomedical research applications. During this thesis, I will explain why and in which contexts LSFM is a favoured technique compared to other currently available biomedical imaging tools. I will show how exotic beam shaping with Airy and Bessel-like beams can be implemented with LSFM to enhance the depth of quality, sub-cellular data available from complex biological samples (increasing the specificity and reach of the illumination to increase contrast in images). I will consider how the use of non-linear fluorescence excitation can improve upon the axial sectioning ability of LSFM with beam shaping in biological samples whilst exploiting the lowered attenuation of near infra-red illumination in biological tissues compared to visible illumination for linear fluorescence excitation. There are always fundamental limits to what we can achieve with optical microscopy. The guiding wish is to get a little bit closer to reaching these absolute physical limits with new, practical microscope designs aimed at medical microscopy applications.

description: La Corte suprema del Regno Unito, nel caso Elgizouli, ha ritenuto che non fosse il common law, ma piuttosto l'incapacità del ministro degli interni di considerare i suoi doveri ai sensi del Data Protection Act 2018 a rendere illegale la decisione dell'allora ministro degli interni di consegnare le prove alle autorità statunitensi. L'attenzione ai diritti di common law solleva interrogativi sulla loro interazione con il Human Rights Act 1998 e sull’estensione della protezione da parte del common law. su come sappiamo cosa protegge la common law. È chiaro che il rapporto tra la common law e l'HRA non è fissato e Elgizouli è un altro caso che dimostra approcci radicalmente diversi. La sentenza si aggiunge al dibattito su quali diritti siano tutelati dal common law, su come i tribunali identifichino tali diritti e sulla questione della razionalità, sostenendo che il contesto fattuale del caso ha giustificato un esame più approfondito della decisione del ministro dell'Interno.

Implementation of a Mentorship Program to Support and Educate Nurses on Perinatal Loss
Creators: name: Kainth, Sandeep
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2019

description: Perinatal loss, the experience of losing a fetus or neonate, is extremely difficult for the family and the primary bereavement care provider, the perinatal nurse. Empirical evidence suggests that optimizing the care experience for the bereaved family and supporting the care provider is crucial for cultivating positive experiences for these two populations. Notably, perinatal nurses who are new to perinatal bereavement care and/or palliative care lack the support and education for providing care to bereaved families, which has a detrimental effect on the family’s care experience and the morale of nurses. As a result, nursing mentorship, specifically, a perinatal loss mentorship program, would be valuable for fostering positive experiences for perinatal nurses and the bereaved families, alike. This culminating project explores 1) the topics of mentoring, communication, emotional stressors and coping mechanisms, reflective practice, collaborative learning and decision making, and didactic and experiential learning, in a review of the literature and empirical evidence; and 2) the components and structure of a perinatal loss mentorship program. The program and findings could be generalized to other specialties as it cultivates: 1) holistic and individualized family-centered perinatal bereavement care, and 2) a culture of mentoring, communication, and collaboration among perinatal nurses. This culminating project and the mentorship program has nursing implications that: 1) foster moral resilience, 2) improve interprofessional collaboration, 3) promote support from senior management, 4) encourage mentees to become mentors, 5) recognize the relevance of the logic model framework for program planning and evaluation, and 6) identify the generalizable, educational components of the program to support care providers.

description: We present the discovery of correlations between the X-ray spectral (photon) index and mass accretion rate observed in active galactic nuclei (AGNs) 3C~454.3 and M87. We analyzed spectral transition episodes observed in these AGNs using Chandra, Swift, Suzaku, BeppoSAX, ASCA and RXTE data. We applied a scaling technique for a black hole (BH) mass evaluation which uses a correlation between the photon index (Gamma) and normalization of the seed component which is proportional to a disk mass accretion rate Mdot. We developed an analytical model that shows that Gamma of the BH emergent spectrum undergoes an evolution from lower to higher values depending on Mdot. To estimate a BH mass in 3C~454.3 we consider extra-galactic SMBHs NGC~4051 and NGC~7469 as well as Galactic BHs Cygnus X--1 and GRO~J1550--564 as reference sources for which distances, inclination angles are known and the BH masses are already evaluated. For M87 on the other hand, we provide the BH mass scaling using extra-galactic sources (IMBHs: ESO 243-49 HLX 1 and M 101 ULX--1) and Galactic sources (stellar mass BHs: XTE J1550-564, 4U 1630-472, GRS 1915+105 and H 1743-322) as reference sources. Application of the scaling technique for the photon index-Mdot correlation provides estimates of the BH masses in 3C 454.3 and M87 to be about 3.4x10^9 and 5.6 x10^7 solar masses, respectively. We also compared our scaling BH mass estimates with a recent BH mass estimate of M_{87}=6.5x 10^9 M_{\odot} made using the {Event Horizon Telescope} which gives an image at 1.3 mm and is based on the angular size of the `BH event horizon'. Our BH mass estimate in M87 is at least two orders of magnitude lower than that made by the EHT team.

description: The purpose of this paper is to mathematically investigate the formation of a plasma sheath near the surface of walls immersed in a plasma, and to analyze qualitative information of such a sheath layer. In the case of planar wall, Bohm proposed a criterion on the velocity of the positive ion for the formation of sheath, and several works gave its mathematical validation. It is of more interest to analyze the criterion for the nonplanar wall. In this paper, we study the existence and asymptotic stability of stationary solutions for the Euler-Poisson equations in a domain of which boundary is drawn by a graph. The existence and stability theorems are shown by assuming that the velocity of the positive ion satisfies the Bohm criterion at infinite distance. What most interests us in these theorems is that the criterion together with a suitable necessary condition guarantees the formation of sheaths as long as the shape of walls is drawn by a graph.
The $sl_2$ loop algebra symmetry of the twisted transfer matrix of the six vertex model at roots of unity
Creators: name: Deguchi, Tetsuo
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We discuss a family of operators which commute or anti-commute with the twisted transfer matrix of the six-vertex model at $q$ being roots of unity: $q^{2N}=1$. The operators commute with the Hamiltonian of the XXZ spin chain under the twisted boundary conditions, and they are valid also for the inhomogeneous case. For the case of the anti-periodic boundary conditions, we show explicitly that the operators generate the $sl_2$ loop algebra in the sector of the total spin operator $S^Z \equiv N/2 ({\rm mod} N)$. The infinite-dimensional symmetry leads to exponentially-large spectral degeneracies, as shown for the periodic boundary conditions \cite{DFM}. Furthermore, we derive explicitly the $sl_2$ loop algebra symmetry for the periodic XXZ spin chain with an odd number of sites in the sector $S^Z \equiv N/2 ({\rm mod} N)$ when $q$ is a primitive $N$ th root of unity with $N$ odd. Interestingly, in the case of N=3, various conjectures of combinatorial formulas for the XXZ spin chain with odd-sites have been given \cite{Odd,Razumov,BGN,GBNM}. We also note a connection to the spectral degeneracies of the eight-vertex model.

description: We examine here a scheme to generate a W state of an n-qubit system with all-to-all pairwise exchange interaction between n qubits. This relies on sharing of superposed excitations of a smaller number of $q$ qubits among others. We present a bound on the maximal jumps from q to n and formalize a scheme to generate $W_n$ state in $\mathcal{O}(\log_4 n)$ stages. We demonstrate this scheme in the context of spin torque based quantum computing architecture that are characterized by repeated interactions between static and flying qubits.

description: The formation histories of lithium-rich and carbon-rich red giants are not yet understood. It has been proposed that the merger of a helium-core white dwarf with a red giant branch star might provide a solution. We have computed an extended grid of post-merger evolution models and combined these with predictions of binary star population synthesis. The results strongly support the proposal that the merger of a helium white dwarf with a red giant branch star can provide the progenitors of both lithium-rich red clump stars and early-R carbon stars. The distribution of post-merger models in $T_{\rm eff}$, $\log g$, $\log L$, the surface abundances of lithium and carbon, and the predicted space densities agree well with the observed distributions of these parameters for Li-rich and early-R stars in the Galaxy.

$CP$ Properties of Higgs Boson Interactions with Top Quarks in the $t\bar{t}H$ and $tH$ Processes Using $H \rightarrow γγ$ with the ATLAS Detector

Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)

description: A study of the $CP$ properties of the interaction between the Higgs boson and top quarks is presented. Higgs bosons are identified via the diphoton decay channel ($H \rightarrow γγ$) and their production in association with a top quark pair ($t\bar{t}H$) or single top quark ($tH$) is studied. The analysis uses 139 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data recorded at a center-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider. Assuming a $CP$-even coupling, the $t\bar{t}H$ process is observed with a significance of 5.2 standard deviations. The measured cross section times $H \to γγ$ branching ratio is $1.64\;^{+0.38}_{-0.36}\;\text{(stat.)}\;^{+0.17}_{-0.14}\;(\text{sys.})$ fb, and the measured rate for $t\bar{t}H$ is $1.43\;^{+0.33}_{-0.31}\;\text{(stat.)}\;^{+0.21}_{-0.15}\;(\text{sys.})$ times the Standard Model expectation. The $tH$ production process is not observed and an upper limit on its rate of 12 times the Standard Model expectation is set. A $CP$-mixing angle greater (less) than 43 (-43)$^\circ$ is excluded at 95% confidence level.

description: Context. Atmospheric superrotating flows at the equator are an almost ubiquitous result of simulations of hot Jupiters, and a theory explaining how this zonally coherent flow reaches an equilibrium has been developed in the literature. However, this understanding relies on the existence of either an initial superrotating or a sheared flow, coupled with a slow evolution such that a linear steady state can be reached. Aims. A consistent physical understanding of superrotation is needed for arbitrary drag and radiative timescales, and the relevance of considering linear steady states needs to be assessed. Methods. We obtain an analytical expression for the structure, frequency and decay rate of propagating waves in hot Jupiter atmospheres around a state at rest in the 2D shallow water beta plane limit. We solve this expression numerically and confirm the robustness of our results with a 3D linear wave algorithm. We then compare with 3D simulations of hot Jupiter atmospheres and study the non linear momentum fluxes. Results. We show that under strong day night heating the dynamics does not transit through a linear steady state when starting from an initial atmosphere in solid body rotation. We further show that non linear effects favour the initial spin up of superrotation and that the acceleration due to the vertical component of the eddy momentum flux is critical to the initial development of superrotation. Conclusions. Overall, we describe the initial phases of the acceleration of superrotation, including consideration of differing radiative and drag timescales, and conclude that eddy-momentum driven superrotating equatorial jets are robust, physical phenomena in simulations of hot Jupiter atmospheres.

description: The double-diffractive production of chi_c and chi_b mesons, with a rapidity gap on either side, is studied, using both the Regge formalism and the perturbative QCD approach. Due to the rather low scale, the exclusive double-diffractive process pp \to p + chi + p is predicted to dominate, whereas the probability that the incoming protons dissociate is expected to be relatively small. We evaluate the corresponding chi production cross sections at the Tevatron and LHC energies. For the double-diffractive process with proton dissociation, it is possible to select events with large transverse momenta transferred through the rapidity gaps, by measuring the transverse energy, E_\perp, flows in the proton fragmentation regions. Then the large E_\perp provides a scale to justify the use of perturbative QCD, and to allow a spin-parity analysis of the centrally produced system to be performed, by studying the azimuthal angular correlations between the directions of the forward and backward E_\perp flows. The central production of the new X(3872) charmonium state is considered.

description: Augmented reality (AR) sandboxes are useful tools in helping students develop a three-dimensional understanding of topographic maps and landforms. Research on the AR sandbox indicates that students enjoy it, but evidence about student learning gains is inconclusive. This study aims to understand how students engage with these tools as a precedent to understanding learning gains. Technology in the form of skin biosensors allows researchers to measure skin conductance (or electrodermal activity – EDA) as a proxy for student engagement. This study used wrist biosensors to monitor the engagement of students exposed to different instructional treatments of an AR sandbox in an introductory lab course. The data were supplemented by dynamic video of the students interacting with the sandbox. Statistical analysis of the EDA data suggests that the use of an AR sandbox, particularly during structured lab activities, increases student engagement. Regression modeling supports a relationship between spatial reasoning skills. Based on video data, students’ collaborative and social interactions also showed a significant relationship with EDA. These results suggest that instructors focus on developing and using structured and collaborative activities when incorporating AR sandboxes in their courses in order to best engage students.

description: NGC 4490/85 (UGC 7651/48) or Arp 269 is well known for being one of the closest interacting/merging galactic systems. NGC 4490 has a high star formation rate (SFR) and is surrounded by an enormous HI feature stretching about 60 kpc north and south of the optically visible galaxies. Both the driver for the high SFR in NGC 4490 and the formation mechanism of the HI structure are puzzling aspects of this system. We have used mid-infrared Spitzer data to show that NGC 4490 has a double nucleus morphology. One nucleus is visible in the optical, while the other is only visible at infrared and radio wavelengths. We find the optical nucleus and the potential infrared visible nucleus have similar sizes, masses, and luminosities. Both are comparable in mass and luminosity to other nuclei found in interacting galaxy pairs and much more massive and luminous compared with typical non-nuclear star-forming complexes. We examine possible origin scenarios for the infrared feature, and conclude that it is likely that NGC 4490 is itself a merger remnant, which is now interacting with NGC 4485. This earlier encounter provides both a possible driver for extended star formation in NGC 4490, and multiple pathways for the formation of the extended HI plume.

description: Evidence is strong that, beginning in 1995, an increase in reported certification-related costs per Food Stamp Program (FSP) household contributed to reduced error rates. This report presents the results of a study of trends in FSP administrative costs and errors from 1989 to 2001. It describes the trends and composition of FSP administrative costs. It also presents a multivariate regression analysis of the relationship of reported certification costs to FSP error rates (including overpayments, underpayments, and incorrect eligibility decisions). The report presents alternative models that relate a composite case error rate to certification effort per FSP household, caseload characteristics, the implementation of welfare reform, and short certification periods. The results imply that, in the period after the Personal Responsibility and Work Opportunity Reconciliation Act of 1996, States on average had to spend more effort on certification-related activities than in previous years to achieve a given level of accuracy. The models predict that, if a State's FSP certification budget is fixed and the number of FSP households increases, the effort per FSP household will fall and error rates will rise, all other things equal.

description: Providers of child day care services operating out of their homes may be reimbursed for meals and snacks served to participating children through USDA's Child and Adult Care Food Program (CACFP). To participate, these homes must be sponsored by a public or private organization that recruits the homes, trains them to follow CACFP rules, monitors compliance with the rules, and handles meal reimbursement claims and payments. CACFP reimburses sponsors for the administrative expenses incurred in conducting these activities. In 1996, Congress instituted a meal reimbursement system to better target benefits to low-income providers and children. The system created new administrative tasks for sponsors and a need for more time to be spent on some of the tasks conducted previously. This situation has raised concerns as to the adequacy of reimbursements. The decline in the number of CACFP sponsors-a 6 percent drop between 1995 and 2001-has further added to the concern. To address the issue, this study explores the administrative cost reimbursement system for CACFP sponsors that oversee the family child care homes portion of the CACFP. Costs reported by sponsors on average were about 5 percent higher than allowable reimbursement amounts. The report also presents and discusses alternative administrative reimbursement systems used by other Federal programs.

description: Σκοπός της διατριβής ήταν η διερεύνηση των μυοσκελετικών τραυματισμών μεταξύ Ελλήνων ανδρών και γυναικών διαιτητών ποδοσφαίρου. Συμμετείχαν 269 αξιολογημένοι διαιτητές και βοηθοί διαιτητές από 51 ενώσεις ποδοσφαιρικών σωματείων, σε σύνολο 53 σε όλη τη χώρα. Το όργανο μέτρησης ήταν το επίσημο ερωτηματολόγιο τραυματισμών που χρησιμοποιεί η FIFA σε παρόμοιες μελέτες ανά τον κόσμο. Οι συμμετέχοντες συμπλήρωσαν μια και μοναδική φορά την ηλεκτρονική φόρμα ερωτήσεων. Από τα αποτελέσματα προέκυψε ότι άνδρες και γυναίκες δεν έχουν στατιστικά σημαντικές διαφορές στον τύπο τραυματισμού καθώς και στην τοποθεσία τραυματισμού, έχουν όμως μεγαλύτερη συχνότητα τραυματισμού καθώς υπάρχουν διαφορές στην σωματική σύσταση. Τα αποτελέσματα της έρευνας θα βοηθήσουν τους αξιωματούχους καθώς και την ΚΕΔ και την ΕΠΟ, δίνοντας την τρέχουσα εικόνα ώστε να μπορέσει να μειωθεί το φαινόμενο των τραυματισμών.
description: The purpose of the dissertation was to investigate the musculoskeletal injuries between Greek and female football referees. There were 269 evaluated referees and assistant referees from 51 football clubs, for a total of 53 across the country. The measuring instrument was the official injury questionnaire used by FIFA in similar studies around the world. The participants filled in the electronic question form once and for all. The results showed that men and women do not have statistically significant differences in the type of injury and the location of the injury, but they have a higher incidence of injury as there are differences in body composition. The results of the research will help the officials as well as the football refereeing committee and the Hellenic Football Federation, giving the current picture so that the phenomenon of injuries can be reduced.

description: We combine the published stellar mass function (SMF) and gas scaling relations to explore the baryonic (stellar plus cold gas) mass function (BMF) of galaxies to redshift $z=3$. We find evidence that at log$(M_{\rm baryon}/M_{\bigodot})>11.3$, the BMF evolves little since $z\sim 2.2$. With the evolution of BMF and SMF, we investigate the baryon net accretion rate ($\dotρ_{\rm baryon}$) and stellar mass growth rate ($\dotρ_{\rm star}$) for the galaxy population of log($M_{\rm star}/M_{\bigodot}$)>10. The ratio between these two quanties, $\dotρ_{\rm baryon}$/$\dotρ_{\rm star}$, decreases from $\dotρ_{\rm baryon}$/$\dotρ_{\rm star}\sim$2 at $z\sim 2.5$ to $\dotρ_{\rm baryon}$/$\dotρ_{\rm star}

description: The purpose of this paper is to prove that the spectrum of an isotropic Maxwell operator with electric permittivity and magnetic permeability that are periodic along certain directions and tending to a constant super-exponentially fast in the remaining directions is purely absolutely continuous. The basic technical tools is a new ``operatorial'' identity relating the Maxwell operator to a vector-valued Schrodinger operator. The analysis of the spectrum of that operator is then handled using ideas developed by the same authors in a previous paper.
Soft power and global health: the sustainable development goals (SDGs) era health agendas of the G7, G20 and BRICS

description: Background: In 2017, the G20 health ministers convened for the first time to discuss global health and issued a communiqué outlining their health priorities, as the BRICS and G7 have done for years. As these political clubs hold considerable political and economic influence, their respective global health agendas may influence both global health priorities and the priorities of other countries and actors. Methods: Given the rising salience of global health in global summitry, we analyzed the health ministerial communiqués issued by the BRICS, G7 and G20 after the SDGs were adopted in 2015. We compared the stated health priorities of the BRICS, G7 and G20 against one another and against the targets of SDG 3 on health, using a traffic light system to assess the quality of their commitments. Results: With regard to the SDG 3 targets, the BRICS, G7 and G20 priorities overlapped in their focus on emergency preparedness and universal health coverage, but diverged in areas of environmental pollution, mental health, and maternal and child health. Health issues with considerable associated burdens of disease, including substance use, road traffic injuries and sexual health, were missing from the agendas of all three political clubs. In terms of SDG 3 principles and ways of working, the BRICS, G7 and G20 varied in their emphasis on human rights, equity and engagement with non-state actors, but all expressed their explicit commitment to Agenda 2030. Conclusions: The leadership of BRICS, G7 and G20 on global health is welcome. However, their relatively narrow focus on the potential impact of ill-health primarily in relation to the economy and trade may not be sufficiently comprehensive to achieve the Agenda 2030 vision of promoting health equity and leaving no-one behind. Recommendations for the BRICS, G7 and G20 based on this analysis include: 1) expanding focus to the neglected SDG 3 health targets; 2) placing greater emphasis on upstream determinants of health; 3) greater commitment to equity and leaving no-one behind; 4) adopting explicit commitments to rights-based approaches; and 5) making commitments that are of higher quality and which include time-bound quantitative targets and clear accountability mechanisms.

description: We describe how to analyze the wide class of non stationary processes with stationary centered increments using Shannon information theory. To do so, we use a practical viewpoint and define ersatz quantities from time-averaged probability distributions. These ersatz versions of entropy, mutual information and entropy rate can be estimated when only a single realization of the process is available. We abundantly illustrate our approach by analyzing Gaussian and non-Gaussian self-similar signals, as well as multi-fractal signals. Using Gaussian signals allow us to check that our approach is robust in the sense that all quantities behave as expected from analytical derivations. Using the stationarity (independence on the integration time) of the ersatz entropy rate, we show that this quantity is not only able to fine probe the self-similarity of the process but also offers a new way to quantify the multi-fractality.
