description: Rate coefficients for photorecombination (PR) and cross sections for electron-impact ionization (EII) of Fe 14 + , forming Fe 13 + and Fe 15 + , respectively, have been measured by employing the electron-ion merged-beams technique at a heavy-ion storage ring. Rate coefficients for PR and EII of Fe 14 + ions in a plasma are derived from the experimental measurements. Simple parametrizations of the experimentally derived plasma rate coefficients are provided for use in the modeling of photoionized and collisionally ionized plasmas. In the temperature ranges where Fe 14 + is expected to form in such plasmas, the latest theoretical rate coefficients of Altun et al. [Astron. Astrophys. 474, 1051 (2007)] for PR and of Dere [Astron. Astrophys. 466, 771 (2007)] for EII agree with the experimental results to within the experimental uncertainties. Common features in the PR and EII resonance structures are identified and discussed.

description: It is shown that the Berezinski-Kosterlitz-Thouless phase transition that has been found in D3-D5 brane systems with nonzero magnetic field and charge density can also be found by tuning an extra-dimensional magnetic flux. We find numerical solutions for the probe D5-brane embedding and discuss properties of the solutions. We also demonstrate that the nontrivial embeddings include those which can be regarded as spontaneously breaking chiral symmetry.

description: As space exploration continues to advance, so does the drive to inhabit celestial bodies. In
 order to expand our civilization to the Moon or even other planets requires an enormous amount of research and development. The Resilient Extra-Terrestrial Habitat Institute is a NASA funded project that aims to develop the technology needed to establish deep-space habitats. Deep-space inhabitation poses many challenges that are not present here on earth. The Moon, for example, has temperatures that range from -233−123°C. Aside from the extreme temperatures, a variety of thermal loads will need to be handled by the Environmental Control and Life Support System (ECLSS). Aside from the research and architecture of the International Space Station’s ECLSS, very little information is known about disturbances related to the thermal management of extra- terrestrial habitats.
 RETHi is developing a Cyber-Physical Testbed (CPT) that represents a one-fifth scale
 prototype of a deep space habitat. In order to answer difficult research questions regarding ECLSS and thermal management of a deep-space habitat, a heat pump was modeled and validated with the physical part of the CPT. Once validated, the heat pump model is able to accurately predict the steady state behavior given the indoor and outdoor conditions of the testbed. When coupled with the interior environment (IE) model, it gives insight into the system’s requirements and response. Experimental testing was conducted with the heat pump in order to validate the model. After the model was validated, a series of parametric studies were conducted in order to investigate the effects of varying thermal loads and dehumidification. Since the groundwork was laid through model development and experimentation, future work consists of designing a more versatile heat pump to test a variety of disturbance scenarios. Although the heat pump model is specifically designed for the CPT, it proves to be versatile for other closed and pressurized environments such as aircraft and clean rooms according to the analysis of dehumidification and dependence on pressure.
Coordinating Interfering Transmissions in Cooperative Wireless LANs

description: In this paper we present a cooperative medium access control (MAC) protocol that is designed for a physical layer that can decode interfering transmissions in distributed wireless networks. The proposed protocol pro-actively enforces two independent packet transmissions to interfere in a controlled and cooperative manner. The protocol ensures that when a node desires to transmit a unicast packet, regardless of the destination, it coordinates with minimal overhead with relay nodes in order to concurrently transmit over the wireless channel with a third node. The relay is responsible for allowing packets from the two selected nodes to interfere only when the desired packets can be decoded at the appropriate destinations and increase the sum-rate of the cooperative transmission. In case this is not feasible, classic cooperative or direct transmission is adopted. To enable distributed, uncoordinated, and adaptive operation of the protocol, a relay selection mechanism is introduced so that the optimal relay is selected dynamically and depending on the channel conditions. The most important advantage of the protocol is that interfering transmissions can originate from completely independent unicast transmissions from two senders. We present simulation results that validate the efficacy of our proposed scheme in terms of throughput and delay.

description: We have calculated electron-impact ionization (EII) for P-like systems from P to Zn15 + forming Si-like ions. The work was performed using the flexible atomic code (FAC) which is based on a distorted-wave approximation. All 3ℓ → nℓ' (n = 3-35) excitation-autoionization (EA) channels near the 3p direct ionization threshold and 2ℓ → nℓ' (n = 3-10) EA channels at the higher energies are included. Close attention has been paid to the detailed branching ratios. Our calculated total EII cross sections are compared both with previous FAC calculations, which omitted many of these EA channels, and with the available experimental results. Moreover, for Fe11 +, we find that part of the remaining discrepancies between our calculations and recent measurements can be accounted for by the inclusion of the resonant excitation double autoionization process. Lastly, at the temperatures where each ion is predicted to peak in abundances in collisional ionization equilibrium, the Maxwellian rate coefficients derived from our calculations differ by 50%-7% from the previous FAC rate coefficients, with the difference decreasing with increasing charge.

description: We have investigated electron capture by NH+ resulting in dissociative recombination (DR). The impact energies studied of ~4–12 eV extend over the range below the two lowest predicted NH+ dissociative states in the Franck–Condon (FC) region of the ion. Our focus has been on the final state populations of the resulting N and H atoms. The neutral DR fragments are detected downstream of a merged electron and ion beam interaction zone in the TSR storage ring, which is located at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg, Germany. Transverse fragment distances were measured on a recently developed high count-rate imaging detector. The distance distributions enabled a detailed tracking of the final state populations as a function of the electron collision energy. These can be correlated with doubly excited neutral states in the FC region of the ion. At low electron energy of ~5 eV, the atomic product final levels are nitrogen Rydberg states together with ground-state hydrogen. In a small electron energy interval near 7 eV, a significant part of the final state population forms hydrogen Rydberg atoms with nitrogen atoms in the first excited ($\rm ^2D$) term, showing the effect of Rydberg doubly excited states below the predicted 2 2Π ionic potential. The distance distributions above ~10 eV are compatible with nitrogen Rydberg states correlating to the doubly excited Rydberg state manifold below the ionic 2 4Σ− level.

description: We have measured dissociative recombination (DR) of HCl+ with electrons using a merged beams configuration at the TSR heavy-ion storage ring located at the Max Planck Institute for Nuclear Physics in Heidelberg, Germany. We present the measured absolute merged beams recombination rate coefficient for collision energies from 0 to 4.5 eV. We have also developed a new method for deriving the cross section from the measurements. Our approach does not suffer from approximations made by previously used methods. The cross section was transformed to a plasma rate coefficient for the electron temperature range from T = 10 to 5000 K. We show that the previously used HCl+ DR data underestimate the plasma rate coefficient by a factor of 1.5 at T = 10 K and overestimate it by a factor of three at T = 300 K. We also find that the new data may partly explain existing discrepancies between observed abundances of chlorine-bearing molecules and their astrochemical models.

description: Recent developments in instrumentation (e.g., in particular the Kepler and CoRoT satellites) provide a new opportunity to improve the models of stellar pulsations. Surface layers, rotation, and magnetic fields imprint erratic frequency shifts, trends, and other non-random behavior in the frequency spectra. As our observational uncertainties become smaller, these are increasingly important and difficult to deal with using standard fitting techniques. To improve the models, new ways to compare their predictions with observations need to be conceived. In this paper we present a completely probabilistic (Bayesian) approach to asteroseismic model fitting. It allows for varying degrees of prior mode identification, corrections for the discrete nature of the grid, and most importantly implements a treatment of systematic errors, such as the "surface effects." It removes the need to apply semi- empirical corrections to the observations prior to fitting them to the models and results in a consistent set of probabilities with which the model physics can be probed and compared. As an example, we show a detailed asteroseismic analysis of the Sun. We find a most probable solar age, including a 35 +- 5 million year pre-main sequence phase, of 4.591 billion years, and initial element mass fractions of X_0 = 0.72, Y_0 = 0.264, Z_0 = 0.016, consistent with recent asteroseismic and non-asteroseismic studies.

description: Histamine has pleiotropic pathophysiological effects, but its role in myocardial infarction (MI)-induced cardiac remodeling remains unclear. Histidine decarboxylase (HDC) is the main enzyme involved in histamine production. Here, we clarified the roles of HDC-expressing cells and histamine in heart failure post-MI using HDC-EGFP transgenic mice and HDC-knockout (HDC−/−) mice. HDC+CD11b+ myeloid cell numbers markedly increased in the injured hearts, and histamine levels were up-regulated in the circulation post-MI. HDC−/− mice exhibited more adverse cardiac remodeling, poorer left ventricular function and higher mortality by increasing cardiac fibrogenesis post-MI. In vitro assays further confirmed that histamine inhibited heart fibroblast proliferation. Furthermore, histamine enhanced the signal transducer and activator of transcription (STAT)-6 phosphorylation level in murine heart fibroblasts, and the inhibitive effects of histamine on fibroblast proliferation could be blocked by JAK3/STAT6 signaling selective antagonist. STAT6-knockout (STAT6−/−) mice had a phenotype similar to that of HDC−/− mice post-MI; however, in contrast to HDC−/− mice, the beneficial effects of exogenous histamine injections were abrogated in STAT6−/− mice. These data suggest that histamine exerts protective effects by modulating cardiac fibrosis and remodeling post-MI, in part through the STAT6-dependent signaling pathway.
Numerical Simulation of Soliton Collision by using 1D Boussinesq Model

description: Soliton or solitary wave is a physical phenomenon in which a wave propagates without changing of form in a dispersive media. It is a condition when effects of nonlinearity is balanced with effects of dispersion. Therefore solitary wave propagation is a standard test for testing nonlinearity and dispersiveness of a wave model and its numerical implementation. One interesting case of the soliton phenomenon is the soliton collision which is an interaction between two solitary waves facing each other and producing a high impact wave. The phenomenon can be used to study tsunami wave interactions. In this paper we study the phenomenon by using numerical approach. We use a nonlinear dispersive 1D Boussinesq model that is implemented numerically by using Finite Element implementation in a collocated grid. The accuracy of the implementation is test by simulating two test cases of solitary wave, i.e. the propagation of solitary wave againsts analytical soliton solusion of Korteweg-de Vries (KdV) and the collision of two identical solitary waves. Results of simulations are also compared with results of the nonlinear nondispersive Shallow Water Equations (SWE).

Essays on economic development in India
Creators: name: Paul, Sourabh Bikas
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: My research is an empirical investigation of how some recent changes in the Indian economy have affected the most vulnerable sections of Indian society. The thesis has three chapters. The first chapter examines the impact of the tariff reductions undertaken in 1991 across different consumption groups. I evaluate the distributional impact of tariff reforms in India using household survey data. I estimate the overall gains coming from general equilibrium effects of the commodity market and labour market adjustment; all consumption groups have significant welfare gains. In addition, it appears that tariff reforms have a pro-poor distributional effect in rural areas and a pro-rich distributional effect in urban areas. The second chapter deals with income opportunities of underprivileged classes in India. Can large macroeconomic changes also alter the historical economic mobility patterns of various social groups? We examine this question by contrasting the fortunes of the historically disadvantaged scheduled castes and tribes (SC/ST) in India with the rest of the workforce in terms of their education attainment, occupation choices and wages. Our key findings are that wages have been converging across the two groups with rising education attainments accounting for the majority of this convergence. SC/STs have also been switching occupations at increasing rates during this period. Moreover, inter-generational education and income mobility rates of SC/STs have converged to non-SC/ST levels. In the third chapter, I present some estimates for India that demonstrate that structural changes in the impact of income on food demand have been significant factors driving the changes in dietary patterns in this rapidly growing economy. A Quadratic Almost Ideal Demand System is estimated for six food groups. The estimation results confirm a shift in taste of both rural and urban households that explains low demand for nutrient-rich inexpensive food and a greater variety of expensive sources of nutrients. The quality of diet has been falling in terms of excessive fat intake with no sign of significant improvement in diet quality in terms of other nutrients.

By running GEOtop as an OMS3 model component it can interact with the GIS uDig-JGrass to utilize other geo-processing, visualization, and modeling components. Furthermore, OMS3 components for automatic calibration, sensitivity analysis, or meteorological interpolation can now interact with GEOtop. Finally, a case study of the model application is presented. Results in terms of soil water content and suction are compared with measured data. Model performance is evaluated by computing traditional goodness of fit indices such as Nash Sutcliffe and percent bias.

description: Paper ini membahas tentang pembangunan pensejajaran kata monolingual pada terjemahan Al-Quran Bahasa Indonesia. Topik ini diambil karena alignment merupakan komponen utama dari beberapa pemrosesan bahasa alami yaitu textual entailment recognition, textual similarity identification, paraphrase detection, question answering dan text summarization. Selain itu terjemahan Al-Quran ini sangat banyak versinya sehingga membutuhkan penafsiran untuk mengartikan terjemahan yang berbeda namun memiliki makna yang sama. Dengan adanya teknik ini beberapa kata terjemahan Al-Quran yang berbeda dapat disejajarkan, sehingga kata-kata tersebut akan terkelompokkan berdasarkan kemiripan semantiknya. Teknik ini juga dapat digunakan lebih lanjut untuk pembangunan synonim set dan WordNet. Inputan dari sistem berupa pasangan terjemahan untuk sebuah ayat yang sama. Evaluasi pada penelitian ini menghasilkan skor korelasi 0.82 dengan nilai toleransi kesalahan pada sistem sebesar 0.18. Korelasi antar ayat yang memiliki kemiripan semantik sejauh penelitian ini sudah dapat dikatakan memadai namun jika ingin ditingkatkan kembali maka diperlukannya fitur dan basis pengetahuan yang lebih lengkap lagi.

description: Retinoic acid, an active metabolite of dietary vitamin A, acts as a ligand for nuclear receptor transcription factors with more than 500 known target genes. It is becoming increasingly clear that alcohol has a significant impact on cellular retinoic acid metabolism, with resultant effects on its function. Here, we test the hypothesis that chronic alcohol consumption impairs retinoic acid signaling in brown adipose tissue (BAT), leading to impaired BAT function and thermoregulation. All studies were conducted in age-matched, male mice consuming alcohol-containing liquid diets. Alcohol’s effect on BAT was assessed by histology, qPCR, HPLC, LC/MS and measures of core body temperature. Our data show that chronic alcohol consumption decreases BAT mass, with a resultant effect on thermoregulation. Follow-up mechanistic studies reveal a decreased triglyceride content in BAT, as well as impaired retinoic acid homeostasis, associated with decreased BAT levels of retinoic acid in alcohol-consuming mice. Our work highlights a hitherto uncharacterized effect of alcohol on BAT function, with possible implications for thermoregulation and energy metabolism in drinkers. Our data indicate that alcohol’s effects on brown adipose tissue may be mediated through altered retinoic acid signaling.

description: We quantify quasar color-variability using an unprecedented variability database - ugriz photometry of 9093 quasars from SDSS Stripe 82, observed over 8 years at ~60 epochs each. We confirm previous reports that quasars become bluer when brightening. We find a redshift dependence of this blueing in a given set of bands (e.g. g and r), but show that it is the result of the flux contribution from less-variable or delayed emission lines in the different SDSS bands at different redshifts. After correcting for this effect, quasar color-variability is remarkably uniform, and independent not only of redshift, but also of quasar luminosity and black hole mass. The color variations of individual quasars, as they vary in brightness on year timescales, are much more pronounced than the ranges in color seen in samples of quasars across many orders of magnitude in luminosity. This indicates distinct physical mechanisms behind quasar variability and the observed range of quasar luminosities at a given black hole mass - quasar variations cannot be explained by changes in the mean accretion rate. We do find some dependence of the color variability on the characteristics of the flux variations themselves, with fast, low-amplitude, brightness variations producing more color variability. The observed behavior could arise if quasar variability results from flares or ephemeral hot spots in an accretion disc.

Deriving an Accurate Formula of Scale-dependent Bias with Primordial Non-Gaussianity: An Application of the Integrated Perturbation Theory

description: We apply the integrated perturbation theory (Matsubara 2011, PRD 83, 083518) to evaluate the scale-dependent bias in the presence of primordial non-Gaussianity. The integrated perturbation theory is a general framework of nonlinear perturbation theory, in which a broad class of bias models can be incorporated into perturbative evaluations of biased power spectrum and higher-order polyspectra. Approximations such as the high-peak limit or the peak-background split are not necessary to derive the scale-dependent bias in this framework. Applying the halo approach, previously known formulas are re-derived as limiting cases of a general formula in this work, and it is implied that modifications should be made in general situations. Effects of redshift-space distortions are straightforwardly incorporated. It is found that the slope of the scale-dependent bias on large scales is determined only by the behavior of primordial bispectrum in the squeezed limit, and is not sensitive to bias models in general. It is the amplitude of scale-dependent bias that is sensitive to the bias models. The effects of redshift-space distortions turn out to be quite small for the monopole component of the power spectrum, while the quadrupole component is proportional to the monopole component on large scales, and thus also sensitive to the primordial non-Gaussianity.

description: The spin-orbit interaction in a solid couples the spin of an electron to its momentum. This coupling gives rise to mutual conversion between spin and charge currents: the direct and inverse spin Hall effects. The spin Hall effects have been observed in metals and semiconductors. However, the spin/charge conversion has not been realized in one of the most fundamental semiconductors, silicon, where accessing the spin Hall effects has been believed to be difficult because of its very weak spin-orbit interaction. Here we report observation of the inverse spin Hall effect in silicon at room temperature. The spin/charge current conversion efficiency, the spin Hall angle, is obtained as 0.0001 for a p-type silicon film. In spite of the small spin Hall angle, we found a clear electric voltage due to the inverse spin Hall effect in the p-Si film, demonstrating that silicon can be used as a spin-current detector.

description: Modern wireless communication systems achieve higher data rates and better link reliability by using complex modulation and transmission techniques which add more constraints on the acceptable amount of distortions and nonlinearities in radio communication systems. RF transmitters are composed of linear and nonlinear circuits, which make them composite and dynamic nonlihear systems. As a result, the quality and performance of a wireless communication system depends significantly on the performance of the RF transmitter. This dissertation proposes novel advanced signal processing techniques for the estimation and compensation of distortions and nonlinearities in modern single-input, single-output (SISO) and MIMO transmitters. First, the focus was on the linearization and distortion compensation of a single-branch direct up-converter transmitter. Two sources of distortion - the modulator's inphase/ quadrature (1/Q) imbalance and the power amplifier - were investigated; and, two linearization approaches have been developed, in order to compensate for both sources of distortion and nonlinearity. The work was then extended to the linearization of multi-branch transmitters. It was demonstrated that nonlinear crosstalk could degrade the overall performance of a transmitter. A new matrix memory polynomial technique was introduced to develop an accurate forward model and to employ in the development of a new crossover digital predistortion linearization algorithm in MIMO Transmitters. The last topic of the dissertation concentrates on the linearization and distortion compensation of dual-band and multi-carrier transmitters. With conventional digital predistortion linearization techniques, the linearization of dual-band and multi-carrier transmitters must meet the sampling rate requirement of analog-to-digital converters (ADCs) and digital-to-analog converters (DACs), which should be at least equal to the Nyquist sampling rate of the signal multiplied by the order of the nonlinearity. In a multicarrier and dual-band system with a broad frequency offset between the two carrier frequencies, this sampling rate requirement would be a big challenge. A novel multi-cell processing architecture is proposed that was developed to selectively compensate for the nonlinearities and distortions of the transmitter in different frequency bands, which significantly reduces the required sampling rate. Based on this new architecture, two linearization architectures were developed to compensate for the inter-band and intraband distortions of dual-band and multi-carrier transmitters.

description: Time series is a sequence of observed data that is usually ordered in time. Time series data mining is the innovative application of the principles and techniques of data mining in the analysis of time series. This research is aimed to apply data mining techniques to forecasting time series data. Electric Power consumption data consumed by Nigerians from 2001 to 2017. Experiments are conducted with four data mining techniques: Random Regression Forest (RRF), Linear Regression (LR), Support Vector Regression (SVR) and Artificial Neural Network (ANN) which were evaluated based on their forecasting errors generated: Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Mean Absolute Percentage Error (MAPE) and prediction accuracy on Waikato Environment for Knowledge Analysis (WEKA) platform. The combination of parameters that yields the best results in terms of predefined performance criteria was chosen as optimal for each regressor. A comparative analysis of the regressors’ performance was conducted. All the tested regressors have demonstrated the best prediction quality in short periods of time. SVR demonstrated the best results in terms of both error values and time expenses.
