Fermion Propagators in Type II Fivebrane Backgrounds
Creators: name: Kitazawa, Noriaki
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The fermion propagators in the fivebrane background of type II superstring theories are calculated. The propagator can be obtained by explicitly evaluating the transition amplitude between two specific NS-R boundary states by the propagator operator in the non-trivial world-sheet conformal field theory for the fivebrane background. The propagator in the field theory limit can be obtained by using point boundary states. We can explicitly investigate the lowest lying fermion states propagating in the non-trivial ten-dimensional space-time of the fivebrane background: M^6 x W_k^(4), where W_k^(4) is the group manifold of SU(2)_k x U(1). The half of the original supersymmetry is spontaneously broken, and the space-time Lorentz symmetry SO(9,1) reduces to SO(5,1) in SO(5,1) x SO(4) \subset SO(9,1) by the fivebrane background. We find that there are no propagations of SO(4) (local Lorentz) spinor fields, which is consistent with the arguments on the fermion zero-modes in the fivebrane background of low-energy type II supergravity theories.

title: Hard bargains: a study of inter-agency collaboration in the provision of day care.
Creators: name: Ames, Janet Christine
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1986

description: This case study of a day care project has relevance for the development of policy and practice in work with the under fives. The policy interest lies in the collaboration between statutory and voluntary sectors in establishing the project. The practical interest lies in the examination of an initiative in day care. The two themes of inter-agency collaboration and innovation in day care are juxtaposed throughout the thesis. A major concern was to explore how grand designs for inter-agency collaboration are realised in practice. Some general propositions about inter-organisational behaviour are examined. The findings offer little support to the hypothesis that specific conditions - shared goals, complementary resources and efficient mechanisms for controlling exchanges - are necessary for successful collaboration. The case study suggests less stringent conditions. The commitment of key members of the organisations assumes greater importance. The case study project was one amongst a number of community "experiments" in care for under fives undertaken in the 1970s and 1980s. During its first year, the project was found to be dominated by professional (rather than community) ideals; choices about how long children would spend at the project and how they would spend their time there were dictated largely by project staff; the choices available to project staff were limited by the rulings of the Manpower Services Commission as the main funding body; the stated ideal of creating a home from home was found to be inappropriate. Some areas for further research are suggested. These are, first, more, detailed studies of the implications of agency collaboration for service delivery; secondly, more studies of Manpower Services Commission involvement in the funding of welfare provision; and, thirdly, more comparative studies investigating the early stages of setting up short term community and social work projects.
Normal forces in stationary spacetimes

description: For geodesic motion of a particle in a stationary spacetime the $U_0$ component of particle 4-velocity is constant and is considered to be a conserved mechanical energy. We show that this concept of a conserved mechanical energy can be extended to particles that move under the influence of a ``normal force,'' a force that, in the stationary frame, is orthogonal to the motion of the particle. We illustrate the potential usefulness of the concept with a simple example.

description: Small communities often try to save money by paying neighboring communities for special government services like firefighting. Both communities benefit when the price is right. But each usually has different ideas on what the right price is. The author suggests that most cases offer room to negotiate within a range of prices, all of which are "right" for both communities.

title: Growth estimates for conformal mappings and for positive harmonic functions in space
Creators: name: Carroll, Thomas F
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1988

description: This thesis falls naturally into two distinct parts. Both come under the general heading of the theory of conformal mapping though the later part incorporates work in potential theory. We first study the growth of means of the logarithmic derivative of a univalent function in the disc. Here results have been obtained by Hayman and by Baernstein and Brown. Hayman has shown that an elementary upper bound for the growth of these means is best possible in general. Later on, Baernstein and Brown showed that the means of certain classes of monotone slit mappings, including support points of the class S of normalised univalent functions, grow no faster than those of the Koebe function up to a multiplicative constant. The question remained open for unrestricted monotone slit mappings. We settle this question by constructing a monotone slit mapping the mean of whose logarithmic derivative grows faster than that of the Koebe function. Following this, we discuss some recent work by Burdzy on the boundary behaviour of positive harmonic functions in Lipschitz domains and applications of this work to the angular derivative problem. Burdzy obtains his results on the angular derivative by probabilistic methods. Rodin and Warschawski later gave a classical proof of part of Burdzy’s main result and related his criteria for the existence of an angular derivative to criteria which they had used previously. They were, however, unable to obtain a non-probabilistic proof of the full theorem. Using a new non-probabilistic method, we prove a theorem on the growth of positive harmonic functions vanishing near a boundary point of a Lipschitz domain. The plane case of this result and some special cases in space were proved by Burdzy in a series of articles. He went on to prove the full result in space in a later paper with R. J. Williams. Our result enables us to give an elementary proof of the remainder of Burdzy’s theorem on the angular derivative and so complements Rodin and Warschawski’s work. We complete our study of this problem by proving two further related results on the boundary behaviour of positive harmonic functions in Lipschitz domains. It is likely that the methods used will be helpful in problems of a similar nature.

description: Im Auftrag des Kompetenzzentrums Digitales Handwerk (KDH) wurde durch das ifh Göttingen eine Auswertung der Angaben der an der Bedarfsanalyse Digitales Handwerk teilnehmenden Betriebe im Bereich Sanitär, Heizung, Klima (SHK) erstellt und deren Eingaben mit anderen handwerklichen Branchen verglichen. Die Bedarfsanalyse Digitales Handwerk unterstützt in Form eines Digitalisierungs-Checks Handwerksbetriebe bei der zielgerichteten Digitalisierung in den Bereichen Kunden und Lieferanten, interne Prozesse, Geschäftsmodelle, Mitarbeiter sowie IT-Sicherheit und ermöglicht gleichzeitig eine ökonomische Analyse der Digitalisierungsmuster im Handwerk. Folgende Kern-Ergebnisse lassen sich für die teilnehmenden SHK-Betriebe ableiten: 1. Die Umsetzung von Digitalisierungsmaßnahmen ist für die teilnehmenden Betriebe der SHK-Gewerke nur leicht höher als in anderen Branchen des Handwerks. Es wird der Digitalisierung eine durchschnittliche Relevanz zugeschrieben. 2. Die Relevanz der Digitalisierungsmaßnahmen wird für den Bereich der Einbindung von Mitarbeitern und der Prozessdigitalisierung als am höchsten, für die Entwicklung digitaler Geschäftsmodelle als am geringsten angegeben. 3. Im Bereich der Digitalisierung der Kundenbeziehung wird der höchste Handlungsbedarf im Bereich der Online-Anwendungen für die Kundengewinnung und der Kundenbewertungstools gesehen. 4. Die Prozessdigitalisierung ist ein wichtiger Bereich für die teilnehmenden Betriebe. Zentrale Handlungsbereiche sind die interne Kommunikation über mobile Endgeräte, die digitale Koordination und Planung von Arbeitseinsätzen sowie die digitale Prozessdokumentation. 5. Digitale Geschäftsmodelle werden als insgesamt weniger relevant eingeschätzt, einzig im Bereich der individuellen IT-Lösungen werden Handlungsbedarfe wahrgenommen. 6. Die Einbindung der Mitarbeiter ist der wichtigste Teilbereich für die Betriebe, mit den höchsten Umsetzungsgraden und der höchsten empfundenen Relevanz. Besonderer Handlungsbedarf besteht bei der Schulung in IT-Sicherheit, der Nutzung von Prozessdaten durch die Mitarbeitenden sowie im Hinblick auf die allgemeine Akzeptanz und Unterstützung durch die Mitarbeitenden bei der Einführung von neuer IT.

description: The UBC farm uses plastic Rubbermaid totes and InterCrate crates for a variety of tasks such as harvest, storage, and shipping. However, they were concerned with the containers' economic, social, and environmental costs. This report presents the evaluation of the environmental costs of using reusable plastic containers which need to be continually washed in comparison to four other possible alternatives: cardboard boxes, wax-lined cardboard boxes, wooden boxes, and cardboard boxes with biodegradable liners. Due to food safety considerations and lack of structural practicality, cardboard boxes, wooden boxes and biodegradable liners were eliminated as options. Therefore, wax lined cardboard boxes were left as the most favorable alternative. Closer investigation of plastic containers versus waxed cardboard boxes was then done through comparative analysis of the environmental impacts on a scale based on solid waste, water emissions, air emissions, water usage, and CO2 emissions. This analysis showed that the plastic containers yielded far better environmental results in all factors except water usage by a factor of about 15. Overall, the recommendation presented is to continue with the current practice of plastic containers, favouring lighter local ones where possible.

description: Die „Bedarfsanalyse Digitalisierung“ des Kompetenzzentrums Digitales Handwerk (KDH) ermöglicht die strukturierte Analyse des Digitalisierungsgrads von Handwerksunternehmen. Die vorliegende Studie wertet die Eingaben teilnehmender Betriebe aus Niedersachsen aus und vergleicht diese mit anderen Bundesländern. Hierbei werden die Digitalisierungsbereiche Kunden und Lieferanten, interne Prozesse, Geschäftsmodelle, Mitarbeiter sowie IT-Sicherheit differenziert betrachtet und nach Umsetzungsgrad, wahrgenommener Relevanz und daraus abgeleitetem Digitalisierungspotenzial ausgewertet. Folgende zentrale Ergebnisse zeigen sich für die teilnehmenden niedersächsischen Handwerksbetriebe: 1. Die Umsetzung von Digitalisierungsmaßnahmen liegt in Niedersachsen leicht unter dem Bundesdurchschnitt, die Wahrnehmung von Handlungsbedarfen jedoch deutlich darüber. Daraus ergeben sich erhebliche Digitalisierungspotenziale für die teilnehmenden niedersächsischen Betriebe. 2. Bei Betrachtung von Digitalisierungsbereichen zeigt sich, dass das Digitalisierungspotenzial insbesondere in den Bereichen Prozessdigitalisierung, digitale Geschäftsmodelle und Einbindung der Mitarbeiter in Niedersachsen überdurchschnittlich hoch ist. 3. Bei der Umsetzung sind insbesondere IT-Schulungen für Mitarbeiter und die digitale Bearbeitung von Kundenprozessen unterdurchschnittlich ausgeprägt. Gleichzeitig wird den Bereichen interne Verarbeitung von Kunden- und Prozessdaten, Kommunikation über digitale Endgeräte und die Schulung der Mitarbeiter eine überdurchschnittlich hohe Relevanz zugemessen. 4. Die höchsten Digitalisierungspotenziale zeigen sich daher für die Bereiche interne Verarbeitung von Kunden- und Prozessdaten, Kommunikation über digitale Endgeräte und die IT-Schulung der Mitarbeiter.

description: Objective: This paper describes the development of a history seminar for a medical school's course on "Physician, Patient and Society." The genesis of the seminar responds to the librarians' desire to promote the use of the library's special collections, especially rare books, among students in the undergraduate MD curriculum. The medical school, its library, and the MD curriculum are described. Methods: The MD course is "Patient, Physician and Society" and is included in both year 1 and year 2 curricula. The history seminar is an option among 20+ humanities seminars offered to students; students are required to choose one seminar. The history seminar is 5 sessions long and is limited to 6 students; the seminar is offered in successive weeks to year 1 and then year 2 students each January and February. Students choose a disease or health condition and trace its history back in time, using the rare books as supporting evidence. A PowerPoint presentation is required at the last session to reinforce the use of technology as a teaching tool and to promote teaching skills among students.

description: Equilibrium statistical physics is considered from the point of view of statistical estimation theory. This involves the notions of statistical model, of estimators, and of exponential family. A useful property of the latter is the existence of identities, obtained by taking derivatives of the logarithm of the partition sum. It is shown that these identities still exist for models belonging to generalised exponential families, in which case they involve escort probability distributions. The percolation model serves as an example. A previously known identity is derived. It relates the average number of sites belonging to the finite cluster at the origin, the average number of perimeter sites, and the derivative of the order parameter.

title: Hydrodynamics of drop formation in liquid-liquid systems: investigation and interpretation of drop sizes in liquid-liquid systems as a function of nozzle diameter, nozzle velocity and physical properties of the systems
Creators: name: Khan, Shuaib Ahmad
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1986

description: Drop formation processes from a nozzle of diameter 0.0602 cm in immiscible liquids were investigated experimentally and theoretically. Experimental data for drop sizes in prejetting and jetting regimes were obtained. In the prejetting conditions for water into decane system, data for drop formation time, drop diameter and drop velocities were obtained at three different Weber numbers using still photography and high speed cine film photographic techniques. A model has been developed to account for a two stage drop formation process in the prejetting regime. In the jetting regime three liquid pairs were employed with injection of dispersed phase from above and below the continuous phase to give a range of physical properties. Interfacial tension was varied from 3.1 to 27.5 mNm-1. The ratio of the continuous phase to the dispersed phase densities was varied from 0.73 to 1.36. The ratio of viscosities of the two phases was varied from 0.063 to 15.7. The experimental data for minimum drop size, mean drop size, jetlength and jet diameter were obtained from still photography. Experimental data for wave length, wave period, wave amplitude of the fastest growing disturbance on the jet were obtained by stroboscopic and high speed photographic techniques. A linear stability analysis for small scale hydrodynamics of the wave motion has been developed to predict the wave growth rate in the jetting regime. Patterns of drop formation and drop size variations in the intermediate regime were investigated and a semi-theoretical correlation was obtained to predict the drop size in the intermediate regime.

title: ITSY: an automated programming adviser
Creators: name: Domingue, John
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1987

description: This thesis presents an automated programming adviser. This system (called ITSY) tutors students in Lisp. This is from the viewpoint of automated program debugging of novice programs. Work within HCRL [Eisenstadt et al, Hasemer, Lewis] has shown that novice programming students can benefit from relatively small changes to the environment and from help via (intelligent) debugging tools. This thesis investigates the use of these debugging techniques in tutoring. The debugging techniques described here rely totally on detecting patterns in the student's code which represent erroneous concepts the student may have. The thesis is divided into three parts. Each part describes a separate area of investigation. The first part provides a detailed description of the types of errors that professional programmers make when using a 'traditional' (i.e. glass teletype) Lisp environment. In the second part the concept of a programming cliche has been inverted and used as a basis for a system designed to help overcome the difficulties described in the first part of the thesis. This approach can be used in the design of computing systems built to help novices in certain domains. The constraint on the domain is that students' answers are complex enough to contain patterns of errors (so one word answers would not suffice). This would include domains where students are learning procedural skills - such as arithmetic, algebra or mechanics. The third part describes a study involving professional programmers using the system.
Consequences of Triplet Seesaw for Leptogenesis

description: We present the various leptogenesis scenarios which may occur if, in addition to the ordinary heavy right-handed neutrinos, there exists a heavy scalar SU(2)_L triplet coupled to leptons. We show that the contributions of the right-handed neutrinos and the triplet to the lepton asymmetry are proportional to their respective contributions to the neutrino mass matrix. A consequence of the triplet contribution to the lepton asymmetry is that there is no more upper bound on the neutrino masses from leptogenesis due to the fact that the neutrino mass constraints do not necessarily induce asymmetry washout effects. We also show how such a triplet leptogenesis mechanism may emerge naturally in the framework of the left-right symmetric theories, such as Pati-Salam or SO(10).

description: Observations of quasars (QSOs) shining through or close to galaxies offer a way to probe the properties of the foreground matter through dust extinction and gravitational lensing. In this paper the feasibility of measuring the dust extinction properties is investigated using the backlitting of QSOs. We test our method to search for QSOs affected by intervening extinction, by matching the coordinates in the SDSS QSO DR3 catalogue with the New York University Value-Added Galaxy Catalog. In total, 164 QSO-galaxy pairs were found with a distance of less than 30 kpc between the galaxy centre and the QSO line-of-sight at the galaxy redshift. Investigating the QSO colours with multiband SDSS photometry, two pairs with galaxy redshifts z < 0.08 were found to be particularly interesting in that the QSOs show evidence of heavy Galactic type extinction with R_v ~ 3.1 at very large optical radii in the foreground spiral galaxies. With the available data, it remains inconclusive whether the two pairs can be explained as statistical colour outliers, by host extinction or if they provide evidence of dust in the outskirts of spiral galaxies. Deeper galaxy catalogues and/or higher resolution follow-up QSO spectra would help in resolving this problem. We also analyse five QSOs reported in the literature with spectroscopic absorption features originating from an intervening system. These systems are at higher redshifts than the other two and we find in most cases significantly lower best fit values of R_v. The wide range of preferred values of R_v found, although affected by substantial uncertainties, already indicates that the dust properties in other galaxies may be different from the Milky Way. Furthermore, the available data suggests a possible evolution in the dust properties with redshift, with lower R_v at high z.

description: We discuss an O(N) exension of the Sine-Gordon (S-G)equation which allows us to perform an expansion around the leading order in large-N result using Path-Integral methods. In leading order we show our methods agree with the results of a variational calculation at large-N. We discuss the striking differences for a non-polynomial interaction between the form for the effective potential in the Gaussian approximation that one obtains at large-N when compared to the N=1 case. This is in contrast to the case when the classical potential is a polynomial in the field and no such drastic differences occur. We find for our large-N extension of the Sine-Gordon model that the unbroken ground state is unstable as one increases the coupling constant (as it is for the original S-G equation) and we determine the stability criteria.

description: Rural community growth is an uneven process. First, the population changes as a result of migration into and out of the community. This change has proven not only uneven but also unpredictable. In 1969, a panel of rural experts wrote of “The People Left Behind,” and how the rural community would have to cope with continued decline. Less than 10 years later, experts were writing of the “rural renaissance” and of the problems of boomtowns.

Frozen water waves over rough topographical bottoms

description: The propagation of surface water waves over rough topographical bottoms is investigated by the multiple scattering theory. It is shown that the waves can be localized spatially through the process of multiple scattering and wave interference, a peculiar wave phenomenon which has been previously discussed for frozen light in optical systems (S. John, Nature {\bf 390}, 661, (1997)). We demonstrate that when frozen, the transmission of the waves falls off exponentially, and a cooperative behavior appears, fully supporting previous predictions. A phase diagram method is used to illustrate this distinct phase states in the wave propagation.

description: Neither branch banking nor unit banking offers clearly better service to rural areas. Branch banks (one bank, many offices) seem more competitive than unit banks and may make a higher proportion of their assets available for loans. Unit banks (one bank, one office) may be more attuned to the special needs of their areas. Contrasting situations in Arizona and Colorado are examined.

description: We present the results of a number of high resolution radio observations of the AGN 1156+295. These include multi-epoch and multi-frequency VLBI, VSOP, MERLIN and VLA observations made over a period of 50 months. The 5 GHz MERLIN images trace a straight jet extending to 2 arcsec at P.A. -18 degrees. Extended low brightness emission was detected in the MERLIN observation at 1.6 GHz and the VLA observation at 8.5 GHz with a bend of about 90 degrees at the end of the 2 arcsecond jet. A region of similar diffuse emission is also seen about 2 arcseconds south of the radio core. The VLBI images of the blazar reveal a core-jet structure with an oscillating jet on a milli-arcsecond (mas) scale which aligns with the arcsecond jet at a distance of several tens of milli-arcseconds from the core. This probably indicates that the orientation of the jet structure is close to the line of sight, with the northern jet being relativistically beamed toward us. In this scenario the diffuse emission to the north and south is not beamed and appears symmetrical. For the northern jet at the mas scale, proper motions of 13.7 +/-3.5, 10.6 +/- 2.8, and 11.8 +/- 2.8 c are measured in three distinct components of the jet (q_0=0.5, H_0=65 km /s /Mpc are used through out this paper). Highly polarised emission is detected on VLBI scales in the region in which the jet bends sharply to the north-west. The spectral index distribution of the source shows that the strongest compact component has a flat spectrum, and the extended jet has a steep spectrum. A helical trajectory along the surface of a cone was proposed based on the conservation laws for kinetic energy and momentum to explain the observed phenomena, which is in a good agreement with the observed results on scales of 1 mas to 1 arcsec.
