description: We present high-resolution infrared imaging of the massive star-forming region around the O-star Herschel 36. Special emphasis is given to a compact infrared source at 0".25 southeast of the star. The infrared source, hereafter Her 36 SE, is extended in the broad-band images, but features spatially unresolved Br gamma line emission. The line-emission source coincides in position with the previous HST detections in H alpha and the 2 cm radio continuum emission detected by VLA interferometry. We propose that the infrared source Her 36 SE harbors an early B-type star, deeply embedded in a dusty cloud. The fan shape of the cloud with Herschel 36 at its apex, though, manifests direct and ongoing destructive influence of the O7V star on Her 36 SE.

description: We explore connections between high energy QCD spin physics and $CP$-odd scalar gluonic operators $\tilde{F}^{μν}F_{μν}$ and $\tilde{F}_{μν}F^{μα}F^ν_α$, the latter being called the Weinberg operator in the context of the nucleons' electric dipole moment. We first introduce the twist-four generalized parton distribution (GPD) associated with the topological operator $F_{μν}\tilde{F}^{μν}$. This has interesting applications in spin physics which go beyond the standard framework in terms of twist-two and twist-three distributions. In the second part, we show that the off-forward matrix element of the Weinberg operator is proportional to a certain twist-four correction to the $g_1$ structure function in polarized deep inelastic scattering.

description: Hall effect is detected in organic field-effect transistors, using appropriately shaped rubrene (C42H28) single crystals. It turned out that inverse Hall coefficient, having a positive sign, is close to the amount of electric-field induced charge upon the hole accumulation. The presence of the normal Hall effect means that the electromagnetic character of the surface charge is not of hopping carriers but resembles that of a two-dimensional hole-gas system.

Eldercare in context : narrative, gender and ethnicity

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This study is an investigation of informal elder caregiving among Canadians of Italian, Japanese, and Anglo ancestry who have links to the Vancouver area of British Columbia, Canada. In this study, I explore the meanings attached to eldercare in the specific contexts of narrative, gender and ethnicity. In order to conduct the study, I analyzed transcripts generated in qualitative, in-depth interviews with 3 0 caregivers (24 women and 6 men). In addition, I employed interactive and observational techniques in care facilities, at support group meetings, during a course for caregivers, and in various community settings. I also wrote extensive fieldnotes and garnered information from academic sources, media reports, and popular culture. The collected information is used to show how personal meanings are expressed through mixed-genre, co-constructed, dialogical (in the Bakhtinian sense) eldercare narratives that generally focus on a senior care-recipient who is a parent or spouse, his/her need for care, and the caregiving experience itself. I argue that both differences and similarities occur in the meanings given to caregiving. Eldercare narratives are different yet similar. Each caregiver, care-recipient, and caregiving situation is unique, and each eldercare narrative reflects these unique differences. Yet there are also parallels and differences attributable to other factors. These other factors include caregivers' situated involvements with a problem-fraught health care system, the social constructions of caregiving, ageing, gender, ethnicity, and class, and the character of narrative itself. My findings have policy and practice implications. They are particularly valuable for alerting us to how we should listen to and interpret what caregivers are telling us about their emotionally-charged, and often physically-draining, unpaid work.

description: Airborne respiratory diseases such as SARS-CoV-2 (COVID-19) pose significant challenges for public transportation. Several recent outbreaks of SARS-CoV-2 indicate the high risk of transmission among passengers on public buses if special precautions are not taken. This study presents a combined experimental and numerical analysis to identify transmission mechanisms on an urban bus and assess strategies to reduce risk. The effects of the ventilation and air-conditioning systems, opening windows and doors, and wearing masks are analyzed. Specific attention is made to the transport of sub-micron and micron-size particles relevant to typical respiratory droplets. High-resolution instrumentation was used to measure size distribution and aerosol response time on a University of Michigan campus bus under these different conditions. Computational fluid dynamics was employed to measure the airflow within the bus and evaluate risk. A risk metric was adopted based on the number of particles exposed to susceptible passengers. The flow that carries these aerosols is predominantly controlled by the ventilation system, which acts to uniformly distribute the aerosol concentration throughout the bus while simultaneously diluting it with fresh air. The opening of doors and windows was found to reduce the concentration by approximately one half, albeit its benefit does not uniformly impact all passengers on the bus due to recirculation of airflow caused by entrainment through windows. Finally, it was found that well fitted surgical masks, when worn by both infected and susceptible passengers, can nearly eliminate the transmission of the disease.

description: Strict gauge invariance requires that physical left-handed leptons are actually bound states of the elementary left-handed lepton doublet and the Higgs field within the standard model. That they nonetheless behave almost like pure elementary particles is explained by the Fröhlich-Morchio-Strocchi mechanism. Using lattice gauge theory, we test and confirm this mechanism for fermions. Though, due to the current inaccessibility of non-Abelian gauged Weyl fermions on the lattice, a model which contains vectorial leptons but which obeys all other relevant symmetries has been simulated.

Material examined
UNITED STATES OF AMERICA – Alabama • 4 otoliths; GLS otolith comparative collection (3 specimens), MSC 39052.
Description
Species characterized by massive otoliths; height approximately 75% of the length. Margins primarily smooth; anterior margin is rounded. Ostial rim slightly concave, posterodorsal rim displays only very slight concavity. Posterior noticeably tapered, often almost bluntly pointed. Anteroventral rim rounder, shorter than posteroventral rim; posteroventral rim straighter and longer. Very slight angularity along ventral rim, near center. Inner face mainly smooth, convex. Sulcus fairly wide, only slightly incised. Sulcus filled with colliculum; ostial channel present. No clear division of ostial and caudal portions of sulcus. Posterior end of sulcus with some ventral widening. No indication of ventral furrow. Outer face smooth, convex except for area near posterior end, where shallow dorsoventrally oriented depression is located.
Remarks
This species and Ariosoma nonsector (see above) were originally described as one species by Koken (1888), but Paraconger sector was separated by Nolf & Stringer (2003). Paraconger sector is distinguished from Ariosoma nonsector by its greater length compared to its height (more elongate) and a narrower sulcus. Like the previous taxon, P. sector has a middle-to-late Eocene range in Alabama, Louisiana, Mississippi, and Virginia in the USA, and it also occurs in lower Oligocene (Rupelian) strata of Alabama, Louisiana, and Mississippi.
Stratigraphic and geographic range in Alabama
This taxon is known from the “upper” Lisbon Formation at site ACh-8 and the basal Gosport Sand at site ACl-4. Bartonian, zones NP16 and NP17.

description: Artificial intelligence in public administration is both inevitable and potentially quite beneficial.

Offsetting risks include disadvantaging technology poor clients, and poor design which fails adequately to reflect social welfare principles or provide adequate accountability and redress for errors; a risk heightened for machine learning. This paper reviews some of the different forms and settings for AI in social security and argues that the Australian experience to date has been very mixed due to poor or rushed AI designs, poor understanding of client characteristics, and inadequate understanding of dynamics within contracted-out government services settings.

description: Oxidation and tarnishing are the two most common initial steps in the corrosive process of metals at ambient conditions. These are always initiated with O and S binding to a metallic surface, so that one can use the binding energy as a rough proxy for the metal reactivity. With this in mind, we present a systematic study of the binding energy of O and S across the entire transition-metals composition space, namely we explore the binding energy of {\bf 88} single-phase transition metals and of {\bf 646} transition-metal binary alloys. The analysis is performed by defining a suitable descriptor for the binding energy. This is here obtained by fitting several schemes, based on the original Newns-Anderson model, against density-functional-theory data for the 4$d$ transition metal series. Such descriptor is then applied to a vast database of electronic structures of transition-metal alloys, for which we are able to predict the range of binding energies across both the compositional and the structural space. Finally, we extend our analysis to ternary transition-metal alloys and identify the most resilient compounds to O and S binding.

description: Second semester University: Maastricht University
description: Like the rest of the world, southwestern China faces an unprecedented challenge from the effects of anthropogenic climate change. Densely populated, highly biodiverse, and home to many marginalized communities and ethnic minority groups, the region is both uniquely vulnerable and uniquely positioned to affect a climate transition that delivers justice to all. This thesis first identifies the ecological and human vulnerabilities inherent to southwestern China and how the region experiences climate change, especially its most vulnerable groups. Future risks are also identified based on the expected trajectory of climate change in the coming decades. This thesis then identifies how the Chinese Party-state and society have responded to southwestern China’s vulnerability to climate change, and how the region perceives and implements climate justice and environmental transitions. Case studies from within China and the region are drawn upon with an eye to outline the southwestern Chinese model for just transitions. Finally, a new, inclusive, and holistic model for climate justice and just transitions for southwestern China is built based on case studies from around the world, a dive into the ideological underpinnings of China’s green transition rhetoric, and the challenges faced by the looming regional transition away from coal.

description: The Maldacena-Qi model describes two copies of the Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev model coupled with an additional coupling, and is dual to the Jackiw-Teitelboim gravity which exhibits an eternal traversable wormhole in the low-temperature limit. In this work, we study an experimental consequence of the existence of the traversable wormhole by considering the tunneling spectroscopy for the Maldacena-Qi model. Comparing to the high-temperature black hole phase where the bulk geometry is disconnected, we find that both the tunneling probability and the differential conductance in the low-temperature wormhole phase show non-trivial oscillation, which directly provides an unambiguous signature of the underlying $\operatorname{SL}(2)$ symmetry of the bulk geometry. We also perform bulk calculations in both high and low-temperature phases, which match the results from the boundary quantum theory.

description: We consider monochromatic and isotropic photon emission from circular equatorial Kerr orbiters. We derive analytic expressions for the photon escape probability and the redshift-dependent total flux collected on the celestial sphere as a function of emission radius and black hole parameters. These calculations crucially involve the critical curve delineating the region of photon escape from that of photon capture in each emitter's sky. This curve generalizes to finite orbital radius the usual Kerr critical curve and displays interesting features in the limit of high spin, which we investigate by developing a perturbative expansion about extremality. Although the innermost stable circular orbit appears to approach the event horizon for very rapidly spinning black holes, we find in this regime that the photon escape probability tends to $5/12+1/(\sqrt{5}π)\arctan\sqrt{5/3}\approx54.65\%$. We also obtain a simple formula for the flux distribution received on the celestial sphere, which is nonzero. This confirms that the near-horizon geometry of a high-spin black hole is in principle observable. These results require us to introduce a novel type of near-horizon double-scaling limit. We explain the dip observed in the total flux at infinity as an imprint of the black hole: the black hole "bite".

description: For protein evaluation of feedstuffs for ruminants, the Streptomyces griseus protease test provides a solely enzymatic method for estimating ruminal protein degradation. Since plant proteins are often structured in carbohydrate complexes, the use of carbohydrase during the test might improve its accuracy. It is advisable to co-incubate protease and carbohydrase, risking that the carbohydrase activity is reduced under the influence of the protease. The present study was conducted to investigate this impact by using α-amylase or the multi-enzyme complex Viscozym® L as carbohydrase. The detection of active protease was determined fluorescence photometrically using internally quenched fluorogenic substrates (IQFS). Cellulose, pectin, and starch degradation were determined spectrophotometrically using 3,5-dinitro salicylic acid as a colorimetric agent. The Streptomyces griseus protease mixture proved to be active for the selected IQFS immediately after the start of measurements (p < 0.05). Starch hydrolysis catalyzed by α-amylase or Viscozym® L, respectively, was decreased by co-incubation with protease mixture by maximal 3% or 37%, respectively, at 5 h incubation time (p > 0.05). Pectin and cellulose hydrolysis catalyzed by Viscozym® L, respectively, was not significantly influenced by co-incubation with a protease mixture (p > 0.05). Although a decrease in carbohydrase activity during co-incubation with Streptomyces griseus protease occurred, it was only numerical and might be counteracted by an adapted carbohydrase activity.

description: We characterize niobium nitride (NbN) $λ/2$ coplanar waveguide resonators, which were fabricated from a 10nm thick film on silicon dioxide grown by sputter deposition. For films grown at 120°C we report a superconducting critical temperature of 7.4K associated with a normal square resistance of 1k$Ω$ leading to a kinetic inductance of 192pH/$\Box$. We fabricated resonators with a characteristic impedance up to 4.1k$Ω$ and internal quality factors $Q_\mathrm{i} > 10^4$ in the single photon regime at zero magnetic field. Moreover, in the many photons regime, the resonators present high magnetic field resilience with $Q_\mathrm{i} > 10^4$ in a 6T in-plane magnetic field as well as in a 300mT out-of-plane magnetic field. These findings make such resonators a compelling choice for cQED experiments involving quantum systems with small electric dipole moments operated in finite magnetic fields.
Meson and glueball spectroscopy within the graviton soft wall model

description: The graviton soft wall model (GSW) provides a unified description of the scalar glueball and meson spectra with a unique energy scale. This success has led us to extend the analysis to the description of the spectra of other hadrons. We use this model to calculate masses of the odd and even ground states of glueballs for various spins, and show that the GSW model is able to reproduce the Regge trajectory of these systems. In addition, the spectra of the $ρ$, $a_1$ and the $η$ mesons will be addressed. Results are in excellent agreement with current experimental data.Furthermore such an achievement is obtained without any additional parameters. Indeed, the only two parameters appearing in these spectra are those that were previously fixed by the light scalar meson and glueball spectra. Finally, in order to describe the $π$ meson spectrum, a suitable modification of the dilaton profile function has been included in the analysis to properly take into account the Goldstone realization of chiral symmetry. The present investigation confirms that the GSW model provides an excellent description of the spectra of mesons and glueballs with only a small number of parameters unveiling a relevant predicting power.

description: We theoretically investigate the Floquet generation of second-order topological superconducting (SOTSC) phase in the high-temperature platform both in two-dimension (2D) and three-dimension (3D). Starting from a $d$-wave superconducting pairing gap, we periodically kick the mass term to engineer the dynamical SOTSC phase within a specific range of the strength of the drive. Under such dynamical breaking of time-reversal symmetry (TRS), we show the emergence of the \textit{weak} SOTSC phase, harboring eight corner modes \ie two zero-energy Majorana per corner, with vanishing Floquet quadrupole moment. On the other hand, our study interestingly indicates that upon the introduction of an explicit TRS breaking Zeeman field, the \textit{weak} SOTSC phase can be transformed into \textit{strong} SOTSC phase, hosting one zero-energy Majorana mode per corner, with quantized quadrupole moment. We also compute the Floquet Wannier spectra that further establishes the \textit{weak} and \textit{strong} nature of these phases. We numerically verify our protocol computing the exact Floquet operator in open boundary condition and then analytically validate our findings with the low energy effective theory (in the high-frequency limit). The above protocol is applicable for 3D as well where we find one dimensional (1D) hinge mode in the SOTSC phase. We then show that these corner modes are robust against moderate disorder and the topological invariants continue to exhibit quantized nature until disorder becomes substantially strong. The existence of zero-energy Majorana modes in these higher-order phases is guaranteed by the anti-unitary spectral symmetry.

description: Ion-selective field-effect transistors (ISFETs) offer potential as micro-sensors for in situ monitoring of complex target variables in real-time closed loop actions. This article presents the concept and realisation of application-specific ISFET-based measurement systems for two different agricultural domains: infield soil measurements and hydroponic systems. Commercially available ISFETs were integrated as multi-sensor modules as well as single-sensor units for the measurement of plant-available nutrients, such as H2PO-4, NO-3, K+ or NH+4, and pH-values. Moreover, application-relevant pH values as well as temperatures for calibration purposes were measured. ISFETs were selected according to the relevant measurement dynamics for the applications. For the development and testing procedures, a laboratory setup was built up. Supported by reference materials, the outputs of the ISFETs were evaluated with respect to stability under the influence of disturbance variables, reproducibility and settling time. The results were used to develop new readout electronics. Next to stability, conditioning and calibration processes were relevant. The micro-sensors were integrated in new application-specific mechatronic handling systems and process flows. The realisation and tests are presented as well as first measurements in outdoor fields and indoor hydroponic environments.

description: We consider a CPT-noninvariant scalar model and a modified version of quantum electrodynamics with an additional photonic Chern-Simons-like term in the action. In both cases, the Lorentz violation traces back to a spacelike background vector. The effects of the modified field equations and dispersion relations on the kinematics and dynamics of decay processes are discussed, first for the simple scalar model and then for modified quantum electrodynamics. The decay widths for electron Cherenkov radiation in modified quantum electrodynamics and for photon triple-splitting in the corresponding low-energy effective theory are obtained to lowest order in the electromagnetic coupling constant. A conjecture for the high-energy limit of the photon-triple-splitting decay width at tree level is also presented.

description: A method is presented to quantitatively analyze the reduction of vanadium(V) to vanadium(IV) over two flat carbon substrates (glassy carbon and graphite foil) using the feedback mode of scanning electrochemical microscopy. A pulse profile is validated and applied during approach curve experiments of a 10 μm Pt microelectrode. By fitting the approach curve data, electron transfer constants are calculated for various potentials and k0 is extracted from the corresponding Tafel plot. Furthermore, surface functional groups were introduced to the carbon substrates by acid treatment; however, kinetic parameters of the sluggish reduction reaction were only influenced to a minor extent. Finally, the same approach, combined with in situ-Raman microscopy, is applied to a single graphene layer using a 2.7 μm Pt microelectrode. In this case, increased activity for both, the vanadium(V) reduction and vanadium(IV) oxidation reaction, was found close to the graphene edge sites by means of electrochemical microscopy for the first time.

description: We present a many-body theory for exciton-trion-polaritons in doped two-dimensional materials. Exciton-trion-polaritons are robust coherent hybrid excitations involving excitons, trions, and photons. Signatures of these polaritons have been recently seen in experiments. In these polaritons, the 2-body exciton states are coupled to the material ground state via exciton-photon interaction and the 4-body trion states are coupled to the exciton states via Coulomb interaction. The trion states are not directly optically coupled to the material ground state. The energy-momentum dispersion of these polaritons exhibit three bands. We calculate the energy band dispersions and the compositions of polaritons at different doping densities using Green's functions. The energy splittings between the polariton bands, as well as the spectral weights of the polariton bands, depend on the strength of the Coulomb coupling between the excitons and the trions and which in turn depends on the doping density. The excitons are Coulomb coupled to both bound and unbound trion states. The latter are exciton-electron scattering states and their inclusion is necessary to capture the spectral weight transfer among the polariton bands as a function of the doping density.

description: We investigate the collider phenomenology of a left-right symmetric Randall-Sundrum model with fermions and gauge bosons in the bulk. We find that the model is allowed by precision electroweak data as long as the ratio of the (unwarped) Higgs vev to the curvature scale is $v/k \le 1/4$. In that region there can be substantial modifications to the Higgs properties. In particular, the couplings to $WW$ and $ZZ$ are reduced, the coupling to gluons is enhanced, and the coupling to $γγ$ can receive shifts in either direction. The Higgs mass bound from LEP II data can potentially be relaxed to $m_H \gtrsim 80$ GeV.

description: Skin is the largest organ and a multifunctional interface between the body and its environment. It acts as a barrier against cold, heat, injuries, infections, chemicals, radiations or other exogeneous factors, and it is also known as the mirror of the soul. The skin is involved in body temperature regulation by the storage of fat and water. It is an interesting tissue in regard to the local and transdermal application of active ingredients for prevention or treatment of pathological conditions. Topical and transdermal delivery is an emerging route of drug and cosmetic administration. It is beneficial for avoiding side effects and rapid metabolism. Many pharmaceutical, technological and cosmetic innovations have been described and patented recently in the field. In this review, the main features of skin morphology and physiology are presented and are being followed by the description of classical and novel nanoparticulate dermal and transdermal drug formulations. The biophysical aspects of the penetration of drugs and cosmetics into or across the dermal barrier and their investigation in diffusion chambers, skin-on-a-chip devices, high-throughput measuring systems or with advanced analytical techniques are also shown. The current knowledge about mathematical modeling of skin penetration and the future perspectives are briefly discussed in the end, all also involving nanoparticulated systems.
A model for transformative learning : the promotion of successful aging
Creators: name: Shaw, Muriel Edith
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: The purpose of this research project was to explore a model of transformative learning for the promotion of successful aging in group counselling and psychotherapy. This project explored how a model of life review, including guided autobiography (Birren & Deutchman, 1991) and enactment(s) in group psychodrama (Westwood, 1997) contributes to transformative learning (Mezirow, 1991, 1998). Successful aging emphasizes the potential for psychological growth rather than decline across the life span. In a field study, I used an ethnographic approach with an emphasis on reflexivity (Atkinson & Hammersley, 1994; Fisher, 1995). For this model, seven co-researchers, graduate students and professionals in practise, engaged in life review enactments in the context of group psychodrama. Evidence for communicative and emancipatory action two major domains of transformative learning (Mezirow, 1991), emerged from the data analysis. Six major themes, including four process themes and two content themes emerged: 1) the reflexive reconstruction of the self; 2) co-construction of the meaning of experience; 3) moral betrayal and social injustice; 4) leadership and creating a democratic public space; 5) action planning: individual and social action; and, 6) dreams as a template for actions. These central themes are described. Case examples from the stories of the co-researchers are offered as clarification. Suggestions and implications for future research and practise are discussed.

Lawyer Cancellation Fees

description: Nearly 30 years ago an Australian judge remarked that the charging of cancellation fees by counsel was a new phenomenon, before branding it as one to be questioned. The interim has witnessed a broadening of this practice, grounded in addressing the opportunity cost for barristers when a matter does not proceed to final adjudication according to schedule. At a time when both legislators and judges lament the costs hurdles to accessing justice, and in the absence to date of any scholarly treatment of the cancellation fee topic in the Australian literature, it is apt to investigate and examine the varying judicial and professional views that have emerged in this context. The article concludes by calling for at least some professional pronouncement in this space.

description: We present a procedure which extracts bright loop features from solar EUV images. In terms of image intensities, these features are elongated ridge-like intensity maxima. To discriminate the maxima, we need information about the spatial derivatives of the image intensity. Commonly, the derivative estimates are strongly affected by image noise. We therefore use a regularized estimation of the derivative which is then used to interpolate a discrete vector field of ridge points ``ridgels'' which are positioned on the ridge center and have the intrinsic orientation of the local ridge direction. A scheme is proposed to connect ridgels to smooth, spline-represented curves which fit the observed loops. Finally, a half-automated user interface allows one to merge or split, eliminate or select loop fits obtained form the above procedure. In this paper we apply our tool to one of the first EUV images observed by the SECCHI instrument onboard the recently launched STEREO spacecraft. We compare the extracted loops with projected field lines computed from almost-simultaneously-taken magnetograms measured by the SOHO/MDI Doppler imager. The field lines were calculated using a linear force-free field model. This comparison allows one to verify faint and spurious loop connections produced by our segmentation tool and it also helps to prove the quality of the magnetic-field model where well-identified loop structures comply with field-line projections. We also discuss further potential applications of our tool such as loop oscillations and stereoscopy.
