Creators: name: Tadesse, Admassie
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2019

description: This study explores the role of government information provision and standardization by applying developed organizational citizen charters, the national and the international standards in ensuring good governance. This is because according to the Addis Ababa City Administration need assessment conducted in 2011 most of the sector organizations have problem on understanding right to information, information handling, organization and utilization therefore this study have investigated how the mayor"s office promote good governance and information provision in the organization. The study was conducted on mayor"s office. The research is descriptive type and has target population of clients and employed case study method for in depth investigation. The cases are selected through both random and purposive sampling. The study has adopted qualitative approach using in depth interviews, observation and documents review techniques in addition, descriptive and comparative case analysis method was used to attain the objectives to the study. The research findings indicate that the role of information communication technology Addis Ababa mayor"s office has contributed a lot in creating awareness about right to information by providing training for 88 employee and employer it applied the national and international information provision manuals established information by opening information communication technology department to organize information data software, publication and website development respectively. Besides, inefficient performance organizational citizen charters make the attribute of good governance like accountability, transparency and responsiveness in preparation and initiation stage then the reduction of corruption also low or no space for public comment all this implies the organization low improvement in information provision and standardization in ensuring good governance.

Publisher: name: figshare

Subjects: International humanitarian and human rights law

description: War crimes are identified with violations of the law of war at the time of arm conflict. It is an extensive conception and if any harm is caused to mankind during peacetime, it is regarded as a war crime. Any kind of infringement of human rights falls under war crimes. The suffering of Afghans was ignored by the world for a couple of decades but what is not acceptable is Afghanistan's government is doing the same. Afghanistan does not have any substantial law on genocide. War crimes in Afghanistan included acts such as abuse of civilians or prisoners of war. It is important to deal with the problem of genocide and related violence. Hence, war crimes in Afghanistan are violations of international humanitarian laws incurring individual criminal responsibility and must be adequately investigated

Herein we report a facile synthetic method for phosphoenolpyruvates and their C-P and N-P analogues via the classic Perkow reaction under mild solvent-free conditions. A moderate to excellent E/Z-stereoselectivity was observed giving the E-isomer as the main product, as determined by full NMR spectroscopy analysis.
Exact dynamics in the inhomogeneous central-spin model

Publisher: name: The American Physical Society
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: 530

description: We study the dynamics of a single spin 1/2 coupled to a bath of spins 1/2 by inhomogeneous Heisenberg couplings including a central magnetic field. This central-spin model describes decoherence in quantum bit systems. An exact formula for the dynamics of the central spin is presented, based on the Bethe ansatz. For initially completely polarized bath spins and small magnetic field, we find persistent oscillations of the central spin about a nonzero mean value. For a large number of bath spins Nb, the oscillation frequency is proportional to Nb, whereas the amplitude behaves as 1/Nb, to leading order. No asymptotic decay of the oscillations due to the nonuniform couplings is observed, in contrast to some recent studies.

description: I construct a model of the inner crust of neutron stars using interactions from chiral effective field theory (EFT) in order to calculate its equation of state (EOS), shear properties, and the spectrum of crustal shear modes. I systematically study uncertainties associated with the nuclear physics input, the crust composition, and neutron entrainment, and estimate their impact on crustal shear properties and the shear-mode spectrum. I find that the uncertainties originate mainly in two sources: The neutron-matter EOS and neutron entrainment. I compare the spectrum of crustal shear modes to observed frequencies of quasi-periodic oscillations in the afterglow of giant $γ$-ray bursts and find that all of these frequencies could be described within uncertainties, which are, however, at present too sizable to infer neutron-star properties from observations.

description: In this study, N,N-spiro cyclotriphosphazene derivatives (1a–4a) with one stereogenic center were synthesized in two steps. Firstly; mono substituted phosphazene compounds [N3P3Cl5NHC6H5 (1), N3P3Cl5OC5H4N (2), N3P3Cl5OC6H2-Me-2,4,6 (3), N3P3Cl5OC6H2-But-2-Me-4 (4)] were prepared. Secondly, these compounds (1–4) were allowed to react with symmetrical difunctional reagent N,N′-diisopropylpropane-1,3-diamine to obtain cyclotriphosphazenes having one stereogenic center. The reaction of N3P3Cl5XAr (1–4) with N,N′-diisopropylpropane-1,3-diamine was carried out in dichloromethane. Four new N,N-spiro phosphazene compounds (1a–4a) which have one stereogenic center were obtained from these reactions. The structures of these compounds were characterized by 1H, 13C and 31P NMR spectrometry and elemental analyses.

description: In recent years, what has become known as collaborative consumption has undergone rapid expansion through peer-to-peer (P2P) platforms. In the field of tourism, a particularly notable example is that of Airbnb. This article analyses the spatial patterns of Airbnb in Barcelona and compares them with hotels and sightseeing spots. New sources of data, such as Airbnb listings and geolocated photographs are used. Analysis of bivariate spatial autocorrelation reveals a close spatial relationship between Airbnb and hotels, with a marked centre-periphery pattern, although Airbnb predominates around the main hotel axis and hotels predominate in some peripheral areas of the city. Another interesting finding is that Airbnb capitalises more on the advantages of proximity to the main tourist attractions of the city than does the hotel sector. Finally, it was possible to detect those parts of the city that have seen the greatest increase in pressure from tourism related to Airbnb's recent expansion.

description: Peganum harmala L. (Zygophyllaceae) is one of the most famous medicinal plants used in traditional medicine of Iran. The aim of this study was to consider antibacterial effects of the methanolic extract of different parts of P. harmala including root, stem, leaf, flower and seed against some important human pathogenic bacteria. Antibacterial properties of methanolic extract of mentioned parts were assessed by disc diffusion method. Active extract was fractioned using Thin Layer Chromatography; also their synergism activity in combination with synthetic antibiotic was evaluated. Among the evaluated parts of P. harmala, the root and seed extracts presented antibacterial activity against all of tested bacteria even at the lowest concentration. Antibacterial effect of leaf part was moderate while stem and flower extracts showed relatively poor activity. Antibacterial activity of root extract against most of the tested Gram positive bacteria was better than seed extract. Tested against Gram negative bacteria the obtained results were inconsistent. MIC (Minimal Inhibitory Concentration) and MBC (Minimal Bactericidal Concentration) values for both extracts against MRSA (Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus) and for seed extract against E. coli and S. typhi were equal (0.625 mg/ml). TLC (Thin Layer chromatography) results revealed that seed and root extracts were different in terms of nature and content of their constituents. Furthermore, these two extracts showed an excellent stability to temperature and pH treatment. Also, the seed and root extracts showed synergism in combination with novobiocin, colistin and carbenicillin. In conclusion, P. harmala can be assigned as a source of antibacterial compounds for treatment of infections caused by multi-drug resistant (MDR) bacterial pathogens.

description: We perform optical spectroscopy measurement across the charge density wave (CDW) phase transitions on single-crystal samples of Sr$_{3}$Rh$_{4}$Sn$_{13}$ and (Sr$_{0.5}$Ca$_{0.5}$)$_{3}$Rh$_{4}$Sn$_{13}$. Formation of CDW energy gap was clearly observed for both single-crystal samples when they undergo the phase transitions. The existence of a Drude component in $σ_1(ω)$ below \TCDW indicates that the Fermi surface is only partially gapped in the CDW state. The obtained value of 2$Δ$/K$_{B}$T$_{CDW}$ is roughly 13 for both Sr$_{3}$Rh$_{4}$Sn$_{13}$ and (Sr$_{0.5}$Ca$_{0.5}$)$_{3}$Rh$_{4}$Sn$_{13}$ compounds. The value is considerably larger than the mean-field value based on the weak-coupling BCS theory. The observed spectral feature in (Sr$_{x}$Ca$_{1-x}$)$_{3}$Rh$_{4}$Sn$_{13}$ resembles those seen in many other CDW systems.

description: Several physics-based algorithms for factorizing large numbers were recently presented. A notable recent algorthm by Schleich et al. uses Gauss sums for distinguishing between factors and nonfactors. We demonstrate two NMR techniques that evaluate Gauss sums and thus implement their algorithm. The first one is based on differential excitation of a single spin magnetization by a cascade of rf pulses. The second method is based on spatial averaging and selective refocusing of magnetization for Gauss sums corresponding to factors. All factors of 16 637 and 52 882 363 are successfully obtained.

description: Linear combinations of Bessel beams can be used to effectively trap light within cylindrical domains. Such hard traps can be used to produce states that exhibit stationary arrays of optical vortices from the perspective of a steadily rotating frame. These patterned singularities can be engineered to have singularities of the same or mixed charges and the requisite rotation rates are quantized even though the setting is purely linear. A hydrodynamic interpretation is that the vortices are at rest within a compressible, two-dimensional fluid of light.
Splitting Mass Spectra and Muon g-2 in Higgs-Anomaly Mediation

description: We propose a scenario where only the Higgs multiplets have direct couplings to a supersymmetry (SUSY) breaking sector. The standard model matter multiplets as well as the gauge multiples are sequestered from the SUSY breaking sector; therefore, their masses arise via anomaly mediation at the high energy scale with a gravitino mass of $\sim$100 TeV. Due to renormalization group running effects from the Higgs soft masses, the masses of the third generation sfermions become O(10) TeV at the low energy scale, while the first and second generation sfermion masses are O(0.1-1) TeV, avoiding the tachyonic slepton problem and flavor changing neutral current problem. With the splitting mass spectrum, the muon g-2 anomaly is explained consistently with the observed Higgs boson mass of 125 GeV. Moreover, the third generation Yukawa couplings are expected to be unified in some regions.

An Assessment of the Leadership Styles of Ethio Telecom Managers
Creators: name: Arefaine, Ephrem
Publisher: name: National Academic Digital Repository of Ethiopia
Year: 2016

description: This research was conducted mainly to assess which of the three leadership styles is the most dominant style among ethio telecom managers. On top of this, the research also aimed to assess the differences in gender demographic between those represented in each of the three leadership styles as well as the differences between the constructs of extra effort, effectiveness and satisfaction among ethio telecom managers represented in each of the three leadership styles. A descriptive and quantitative research approach was used in this research. Data was gathered through the Multifactor Leadership Questionnaires, MLQ (5X-Short Form). From the total distributed 150 questionnaires, 133 questionnaires were properly filled and returned, with a very high response rate of 88.7%. The findings of this research indicate that the dominant leadership style of ethio telecom managers is Transactional Leadership. The second-most popular style is transformational Leadership followed by passive avoidant Leadership. This research also shows that female leaders are more transformational than males and females are also better in contributing to the outcome than males. The findings on the differences in the responses to the constructs of extra effort, effectiveness and satisfaction of the three leadership styles indicates that transformational leadership has significantly strong positive relationship to extra effort, effectiveness & satisfaction. Based on the result of this research, it is recommended that transformational leadership style should be practiced in ethio telecom so that the leaders can transforms their follower by helping them understand the importance of the organization outcomes, encouraging them to rise above their self-interest to achieve the company goals and objectives. The findings of this research also provided recommendations for future research for those who are interested in leadership studies. Key words: Leadership, Leadership style, Leadership outcomes.

Year: 2018

description: The main objective of the study is to investigate the impacts of channel management decisions on customer satisfaction through identification of channel management decisions currently implemented in National Alcohol and Liquor Factory. The study involved a self-designed and pre-tested questionnaire with 38 question elements that were distributed to 385 agents, wholesalers, retailers, liquor distributors, and direct users'. The reliability of the questionnaire was assured through determination of Cronbach's alpha after which Chi-square test was carried out to check whether the channel management decisions (independent variables) associated with customer satisfaction (dependent variable) after which regression analysis was conducted to investigate the impacts of independent variables (channel management decisions) on customer satisfaction in the case of National Alcohol and Liquor Factory. A conceptual framework was used as a guideline to test the relationships between channel management decision and customer satisfaction. A quantitative approach is chosen in this research. The findings of the study show that the identified channel management decisions, downstream supply chain integration, customer relationship management, product mix decisions, information systems and third party logistics were implemented in varying degree but strongly associated with customer satisfaction in National Alcohol and Liquor Factory. Moreover, the impacts of these channel management decision against customer satisfaction from strongest to the weakest is mentioned here: Product Mix Decision, Information Systems, Third Party Logistics, Customer Relationship Management and Down Stream Supply Chain Integration

description: In the present investigation, the condensation reaction of octachlorocyclotetraphosphazene, N4P4Cl8 (1) (tetramer, OCCP), with sodium 3-(N-ferrocenylmethylamino)-1-propanoxide (L) resulted in the formation of the starting compound hexachloromonoferrocenylspiro(N/O)cyclotetraphosphazene (2). Thereafter, reactions of spiro (2) with excesses of 1-(2-aminoethyl)pyrrolidine, 1-(2-aminoethyl)piperidine and 4-(2-aminoethyl)morpholine in dry THF gave hexaaminomono-ferrocenylspiro(N/O)cyclotetraphosphazenes, 2a, 2b, and 2c, respectively. These new products were prepared for investigation of spectral and electrochemical properties, tuning of redox features, and examination of antituberculosis activities. The structures of 2a–2c were elucidated using elemental analysis, mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), FTIR, HMBC, HSQC, 1H, 13C {1H}, and 31P {1H} NMR data. The electrochemical behavior of these products containing monoferrocenyl group was investigated. Their use as potential alternative electrolyte redox couples for dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSC) was examined. The findings may inspire solar cell studies to explore the redox mediator behind the working mechanisms of DSSCs. Conversely, the antituberculosis activities of three compounds were examined against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv. The MIC values of 2a and 2 b were found to be as 30 and 35 µg/mL, respectively, against the H37Rv reference strain.

Twisted Black Hole Is Taub-NUT

description: Recently a purportedly novel solution of the vacuum Einstein field equations was discovered: it supposedly describes an asymptotically flat twisted black hole in 4-dimensions whose exterior spacetime rotates in a peculiar manner -- the frame dragging in the northern hemisphere is opposite from that of the southern hemisphere, which results in a globally vanishing angular momentum. Furthermore it was shown that the spacetime has no curvature singularity. We show that the geometry of this black hole spacetime is nevertheless not free of pathological features. In particular, it harbors a rather drastic conical singularity along the axis of rotation. In addition, there exist closed timelike curves due to the fact that the constant r and constant t surfaces are not globally Riemannian. In fact, none of these are that surprising since the solution is just the Taub-NUT geometry. As such, despite the original claim that the twisted black hole might have observational consequences, it cannot be.

Time-invariant entanglement and sudden death of nonlocality for multipartite systems under collective dephasing
Creators: name: Ali, Mazhar
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We investigate the dynamics of entanglement and nonlocality for multipartite quantum systems under collective dephasing. Using an exact and computable measure for genuine entanglement, we demonstrate the possibility of a non trivial phenomenon of time-invariant entanglement for multipartite quantum systems. We find that for four qubits, there exist quantum states, which are changing continously nevertheless their genuine entanglement remains constant. Based on our numerical results, we conjecture that there is no evidence of time-invariant entanglement for quantum states of three qubits. We point out that quantum states exhibiting time-invariant entanglement must live in both decoherence free subspace and in the subspaces orthogonal to it. The previous studies on this feature for two qubits can be recovered from our studies as a special case. We also study the nonlocality of quantum states under collective dephasing. We find that although genuine entanglement of quantum states may not change, however their nonlocality changes. We discuss the possibility of finite time end of genuine nonlocality.

description: Even though Ethiopia has an abundance of attractions of numerous types ranging from wildlife, landscape culture, scenery, history and archeology sites that set it apart from its neighbors, it has one of the list developed tourism industry in the region. Marketing in the tourism industry is associated to making the potential customers sensitive to the product and service available in the tourism area and persuade them and propose them that they satisfied and benefited if they become real customers. This thesis was envisaged with the objective assessing the marketing strategy for tourism destinations in Addis Ababa. More specifically, it tried to examine how the city segment, target, and position its market, investigate the city's marketing mixes elements that devised for marketing strategies, and identify problems to evaluate the tourism marketing strategy of the AACTB. The research design used for this study was descriptive research design. Both qualitative and quantitative research methods were used. Both primary and secondary data types were used for the study from their respective sources. Primary data were gathered from visitors (foreign and domestic) who have visited city, employees of Addis Ababa Culture and Tourism Bureau (AACTB) workers. Business and educational are the market segments in these tourism destinations in Addis Ababa. Religion is also used as Addis Ababa's tourism market segmentation. The study also found that even though tourism activities are largely boosted by the promotional activities that are made in order to attract and sustain large tourist flow, the study has found that the promotional activities lacks coverage and consistency. Based on the result of this study, the major strengths of tourism sites in Addis Ababa are; friendliness of the people in the area, the culture variety of the city, safety and security, the presence of festivals and events, and value for money. Lack of customer awareness, absence of standard of accommodation, and absence of quality of services were found to be the major weaknesses of Addis Ababa tourism sites

Grigor'yan, Lin and Yang \cite{GLY} showed that if the Kazdan-Warner equation has a solution, then $\overline{h}$, the average value of $h$, is negative. Conversely, if $\overline{h}<0$, then there exists a number $c_-(h)<0$, such that the Kazdan-Warner equation is solvable for every $0>c>c_-(h)$ and it is not solvable for $c-\infty$, then there exists at least one solution to the Kazdan-Warner equation with $c=c_-(h)$.

description: Herein a prominent, efficient, facile and environmentally benign catalytic activity of γ-Fe2O3/talc/CuII NPs (as a superparamagnetic composite with average diameter of about 20-30 nm) has been shown in C–S cross-coupling reactions. A wide variety of aryl iodides, aryl bromides and aryl chlorides with electron-donating or electron-withdrawing substituents reacted with S8 or thiourea forming the corresponding substituted diphenyl sulfides under eco-friendly and mild process conditions. The results demonstrated remarkable catalytic activity of the nanostructured catalyst such as chemoselectivity and functional group tolerance. γ-Fe2O3/talc/CuII NPs as a magnetic catalyst was stable under reaction conditions and can be recycled at least five times with minimal loss of catalytic activity. Moreover, the use of commercially available and chemically stable sulfur transfer agent, eco-friendly and low-cost solvent and base as well as operational simplicity and easier work-up procedure make this method a promising candidate for potential applications in some organic reactions.

description: This work introduces a methodology for energy balance of solar water heaters (SWH). It describes the Israeli system for determination of the size of SWH, and calculations of the amount of energy gained by the SWH every month. It analyzes the central forced circulation system for the upper 9 floors of a residential building in Tel Aviv.

The balance is for the demand scenario as determined using national statistics (unique to Israel). Electrical backup is 12% of the energy supplied by solar collectors.

The balance shows that the energy consumption of hot water actually used is 57% of the total energy, and energy losses are 30%. 13% of the energy is not used as in summer SWH supplies more hot water than required.

This work may be useful for a techno-economic evaluation of water heating options and calculations of optimal solutions. It also contains a large volume of useful data and information and can serve as a solar water heating manual or basic material for solar energy study.

description: Probing the polarization of water molecules at charged interfaces by second harmonic generation spectroscopy has been heretofore limited to isotropic materials. Here, we report non-resonant nonlinear optical measurements at the interface of anisotropic z-cut α-quartz and water under conditions of dynamically changing ionic strength and bulk solution pH. We find that the product of the third-order susceptibility and the interfacial potential, \c{hi}(3). Φ(0), is given by ( \c{hi}(3)-i\c{hi}(3)). Φ(0), and that the interference between this product and the second-order susceptibility of bulk quartz depends on the rotation angle of α-quartz around the z-axis. Our experiments show that this newly identified term, i\c{hi}(3). Φ(0), which is out of phase from the surface terms, is of bulk origin. The possibility of internally phase referencing the interfacial response for the interfacial orientation analysis of species or materials in contact with α-quartz is discussed along with the implications for conditions of resonance enhancement.

The Role Of Social Media Marketing In Building Brand Image, The Case Of Capital Hotel And Spa, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia
Creators: name: Genzebe, Fasika

description: Social media has become an important part of hotels brand image building activities and has transformed the way hotels interact with customers. It is a new field of research and a literature review reveals that not various studies have been undertaken specially in Ethiopia context. The use of social media marketing in Ethiopia is at its infant stage. However, the current situation may not extend for long time due to the fast-growing usage of social media platforms, fast growth of internet penetration and the need for hotels to participate in the globalized world in order to be competitive with international hotels and to benefit out of this astounding technology. The purpose of this research paper has been to examine the role of social media marketing in building strong brand image in the context of Ethiopian hotel. This study is an explanatory and descriptive nature whose primary objective is to provide insight in social media marketing phenomenon and brand image. the researcher used the sample size recommended for unknown population by Corbetta (2003) which is 385. A non-probability sampling, purposive sampling and snow-ball method were employed to conduct the survey due to the need to the selection (screening) of target population based of their social media presence. The finding of this research paper indicates that capital hotel and spa is not exploiting the full potential of social media marketing for brand image with its two selected important dimensions (brand awareness and brand association). As the detail statistical analysis showed in chapter four social media marketing and brand image are highly correlated each other, nevertheless, the data collected form this study exposed that significant number of respondents are not exposed to the hotel' social media marketing activities giving the interpretation that capital hotel and spa is not taking advantage of this remarkable opportunity, the social media marketing activities of the hotel are not sufficient and consistence. The use of social media marketing nowadays is becoming very popular worldwide and it has changed the relationship between customers and hotels and this effect will gradually continue to evolve in Ethiopia as new media infuses the culture and society. Therefore, the research suggested that hotels that appeals themselves as an international hotel should use social media platforms to present their brands with enormous reach, endless communication possibilities and with a very limited promotion cost and grab the possible opportunities of exploiting the strong brand image building potential through the richest and fastest communication

description: We complete the classification of Hopf algebras whose infinitesimal braiding is a principal Yetter-Drinfeld realization of a braided vector space of Cartan type $G_2$ over a cosemisimple Hopf algebra. We develop a general formula for a class of liftings in which the quantum Serre relations hold. We give a detailed explanation of the procedure for finding the relations, based on the recent work of Andruskiewitsch, Angiono and Rossi Bertone.

description: Unexpected ring closure of 2-(1-(4-fluorophenyl)-5-methyl-1H-1,2,3-triazole-4-carbonyl)-N-phenylhydrazine-1-carbothioamide (3) on exposure to sulfuric acid at room temperature for an extended duration (12 h) gave 4-((5-(1-(4-fluorophenyl)-5-methyl-1H-1,2,3-triazol-4-yl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)amino)benzenesulfonic acid (4) in 75% yield. The use of sulfuric acid led to sulfonation at the para-position of the benzene ring in phenyl isothiocyanate. The crystal structure comprises two independent types of molecules of 4 and two disordered ether solvent molecules. The synthesized benzenesulfonic acid inhibits the growth of both Listeria monocytogenes and Escherichia coli and its activity was comparable to those obtained for ampicillin and vancomycin.

description: Machine learning (ML) is a subfield of artificial intelligence (AI). It focuses on algorithms that learn from data and even make predictions. Unlike regular programming, where we need to tell a computer exactly what to do, machine learning lets systems find patterns. ML models use statistics & get better as they are trained with more and more data. This makes them effective tools for predictive analytics, categorization, and pattern identification

description: The ability to prepare, optically read out and coherently control single quantum states is a key requirement for quantum information processing. Optically active solid state emitters have emerged as promising candidates with their prospects for on chip integration as quantum nodes and sources of coherent photons for connecting these nodes. Under strongly driving resonant laser field, such quantum emitter can exhibit quantum behavior such as Autler-Townes splitting and Mollow triplet spectrum. Here we demonstrate coherent control of a strongly driven optical transition in silicon vacancy (SiV) center in diamond. Rapid optical detection of photons enabled the observation of time resolved coherent Rabi oscillations and the Mollow triplet from an optical transition of a single SiV defect. Detection with a probing transition further confirmed Autler-Townes splitting generated by a strong laser field. Coherence time of the emitted photons is shown to be comparable to its lifetime and robust under very strong driving laser field, which is promising for generation of indistinguishable photons.

description: Directionally sensitive dark matter (DM) direct detection experiments present the only way to observe the full three-dimensional velocity distribution of the Milky Way halo local to Earth. In this work we compare methods for extracting information about the local DM velocity distribution from a set of recoil directions and energies in a range of hypothetical directional and non-directional experiments. We compare a model independent empirical parameterisation of the velocity distribution based on an angular discretisation with a model dependent approach which assumes knowledge of the functional form of the distribution. The methods are tested under three distinct halo models which cover a range of possible phase space structures for the local velocity distribution: a smooth Maxwellian halo, a tidal stream and a debris flow. In each case we use simulated directional data to attempt to reconstruct the shape and parameters describing each model as well as the DM particle properties. We find that the empirical parametrisation is able to make accurate unbiased reconstructions of the DM mass and cross section as well as capture features in the underlying velocity distribution in certain directions without any assumptions about its true functional form. We also find that by extracting directionally averaged velocity parameters with this method one can discriminate between halo models with different classes of substructure.
