description: Nuclear mass contains a wealth of nuclear structure information, and has been widely employed to extract the nuclear effective interactions. The known nuclear mass is usually extracted from the experimental atomic mass by subtracting the masses of electrons and adding the binding energy of electrons in the atom. However, the binding energies of electrons are sometimes neglected in extracting the known nuclear masses. The influence of binding energies of electrons on nuclear mass predictions are carefully investigated in this work. If the binding energies of electrons are directly subtracted from the theoretical mass predictions, the rms deviations of nuclear mass predictions with respect to the known data are increased by about $200$ keV for nuclei with $Z, N\geqslant 8$. Furthermore, by using the Coulomb energies between protons to absorb the binding energies of electrons, their influence on the rms deviations is significantly reduced to only about $10$ keV for nuclei with $Z, N\geqslant 8$. However, the binding energies of electrons are still important for the heavy nuclei, about $150$ keV for nuclei around $Z=100$ and up to about $500$ keV for nuclei around $Z=120$. Therefore, it is necessary to consider the binding energies of electrons to reliably predict the masses of heavy nuclei at an accuracy of hundreds of keV.

description: We consider the production of a single $Z$ or $W$ boson in association with jets at the LHC. We compute the corresponding cross sections by matching NLO QCD predictions with the Herwig++ and Pythia8 parton showers, and by merging all of the underlying matrix elements with up to two light partons at the Born level. We compare our results with several 7-TeV measurements by the ATLAS and CMS collaborations, and overall we find a good agreement between theory and data.

description: We present a formulation of the compositeness for baryonic resonances in order to discuss the meson-baryon molecular structure inside the resonances. For this purpose, we derive a relation between the residue of the scattering amplitude at the resonance pole position and the two-body wave function of the resonance in a sophisticated way, and we define the compositeness as the norm of the two-body wave functions. As applications, we investigate the compositeness of the $Δ(1232)$, $N (1535)$, and $N (1650)$ resonances from precise $πN$ scattering amplitudes in a unitarized chiral framework with the interaction up to the next-to-leading order in chiral perturbation theory. The $πN$ compositeness for the $Δ(1232)$ resonance is evaluated in the $πN$ single-channel scattering, and we find that the $πN$ component inside $Δ(1232)$ in the present framework is nonnegligible, which supports the previous work. On the other hand, the compositeness for the $N (1535)$ and $N (1650)$ resonances is evaluated in a coupled-channels approach, resulting that the $πN$, $ηN$, $K Λ$ and $K Σ$ components are negligible for these resonances.

description: A search is presented for a new, light boson with a mass of about 1 GeV and decaying promptly to jets of collimated electrons and/or muons (lepton-jets). The analysis is performed with 20.3 fb$^{-1}$ of data collected by the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider in proton--proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 TeV. Events are required to contain at least two lepton-jets. This study finds no statistically significant deviation from predictions of the Standard Model and places 95\% confidence-level upper limits on the contribution of new phenomena beyond the SM, incuding SUSY-portal and Higgs-portal models, on the number of events with lepton-jets.

description: The `r3f` library includes attitude-representation conversions, reference-frame conversions, and rotation matrix (direction cosine matrix) utilities. All twenty possible conversions among the following five attitude representations are provided: rotation vector, rotation axis and angle, roll and pitch and yaw (RPY) Euler angles, direction cosine matrix (DCM), and quaternion. This library also includes all twelve possible conversions among the following four frames: ECEF (Earth-centered, Earth-fixed), geodetic (latitude, longitude, and height above ellipsoid), local-level tangent, and local-level curvilinear. Both local-level frames can be in either NED (North, East, Down) or ENU (East, North, Up) orientation. A general `dcm` function will generate any arbitrary rotation matrix based on an arbitrary sequence of Euler rotation angles. This can be used to convert between ECEF and ECI (Earth-centered Inertial) frames.A few additional utility functions are included. The `orthonormalize_dcm` function will normalize and orthogonalize a rotation matrix. The two Rodrigues's rotation functions, `rodrigues_rotation` and `inverse_rodrigues_rotation`, are meant for converting a vector to the matrix exponential of the skew-symmetric matrix of that vector and back again.
Reaching down and doubling up: Challenges and opportunities for rural workforce development through greater localization and network strategies
Creators: name: Breit, Eric
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2014

description: In Bertie County, North Carolina, workforce development providers acknowledge that they are challenged to meet the population they serve. Many factors are cited for this, including poor infrastructure, the distance to services due to the county’s large geography, and institutional distrust. There is a belief that existing employment training opportunities, most offered at the community colleges or by the county NCWorks (formerly JobLink) office, are underutilized. The recommended response involves closer collaboration between existing state-funded training supports and more localized community-based and faith-based entities.
The strengths and challenges of this kind of public/nonprofit partnership lie with the unique characteristics of each entity. Community colleges have existing curriculum and educational professionals on staff. Community colleges and larger regional social service entities, supported by the workforce investment consortiums, are also characterized as having more organizational capacity and longevity. They also depend more on government support, which is a relatively stable source of funding, but which also has a high level of reporting and scrutiny, and can be impacted by political volatility. In contrast, the community-based and faith-based organizations have the trust of and are located in closer proximity to the individuals being served. They also are characterized by a nimbleness of decision making, and a reliance on sweat equity and private contributions, which allows for more flexibility in decision making but which requires professional skill, time, and resources to sustain.
This paper explores the opportunities and the challenges of collaborations between community colleges and community-based organization as a means to increase the delivery of job training
opportunities in rural settings. Specifically, this paper will address the following questions: how can college/community workforce partnerships overcome challenges to employment training that are due to geographic and institutional challenges unique to rural communities; in what ways do community providers have to be strengthened to successfully integrate into networks and implement workforce initiatives; and how can these collaborations be built in a way so that they are long lasting and can leverage the resources of other potential partners necessary for community-wide economic and workforce development impact.

description: This paper presents and compares two candidate large-scale propagation path loss models, the alpha-beta-gamma (ABG) model and the close-in (CI) free space reference distance model, for the design of fifth generation (5G) wireless communication systems in urban micro- and macro-cellular scenarios. Comparisons are made using the data obtained from 20 propagation measurement campaigns or ray-tracing studies from 2 GHz to 73.5 GHz over distances ranging from 5 m to 1429 m. The results show that the one-parameter CI model has a very similar goodness of fit (i.e., the shadow fading standard deviation) in both line-of-sight and non-line-of-sight environments, while offering substantial simplicity and more stable behavior across frequencies and distances, as compared to the three-parameter ABG model. Additionally, the CI model needs only one very subtle and simple modification to the existing 3GPP floating-intercept path loss model (replacing a constant with a close-in free space reference value) in order to provide greater simulation accuracy, more simplicity, better repeatability across experiments, and higher stability across a vast range of frequencies.

Subjects: Intelligent Transportation Systems

description: Incidents account for nearly 50% of traffic congestion in urban areas. The cost of incident-induced congestion is borne by motorists in terms of delays and higher vehicular costs. They also impose costs on commercial carriers and associated businesses. Mitigating the effect of incidents clearly benefits motorists and commercial users. This study provides a method for evaluating the impacts of dynamic traffic information disseminated through a variety of sources in reducing incident-induced congestion. The method can be used by State Departments of Transportation to decide expansion priorities for traveler information systems, taking into consideration their impacts on commercial and non-commercial users. Using a behavioral model, we simulate the movement of trucks and vehicles in a simple transportation network. The results show the benefits of providing real-time information to travelers in incident-induced congestion situations, and capture the different effects of traveler information according to different user/vehicle behaviors, including commercial carriers.

description: Current large-aperture cosmic microwave background (CMB) telescopes have nearly maximized the number of detectors that can be illuminated while maintaining diffraction-limited image quality. The polarization-sensitive detector arrays being deployed in these telescopes in the next few years will have roughly $10^4$ detectors. Increasing the mapping speed of future instruments by at least an order of magnitude is important to enable precise probes of the inflationary paradigm in the first fraction of a second after the big bang and provide strong constraints on cosmological parameters. The CMB community has begun planning a next generation "Stage IV" CMB project that will be comprised of multiple telescopes with between $10^5$ - $10^6$ detectors to pursue these goals. This paper introduces new crossed Dragone telescope and receiver optics designs that increase the usable diffraction-limited field-of-view, and therefore the mapping speed, by an order of magnitude compared to the upcoming generation of large-aperture instruments. Polarization systematics and engineering considerations are presented, including a preliminary receiver model to demonstrate that these designs will enable high efficiency illumination of $>10^5$ detectors in a next generation CMB telescope.

Impact of the built environment on coffee shops
Creators: name: Russell, Rachel H.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2011

description: This paper explores how the design of the built environment impacts the viability of retail. The design of the built environment is widely studied, as is the viability of retail businesses; however the impact of these two fields on each other has hardly been addressed. This lack of research is largely due to the challenges of quantifying an intangible value and assessing a causal effect. Over the past few years I have noted an intuitive nature of humans to patronize a business based on the surrounding environment of that location without recognizing the criteria in their decision process. I believe that the design of the built environment outside of a retail establishment has a significant impact on a customerâs decision to go there and therefore on the success of that business. The impact of built environment design affects many property types and business types. I chose to narrow the study and focus specifically on coffee shops because of my personal interest and their significance in neighborhoods. Specifically, this paper examines whether or not the built environment design impacts the viability of coffee shops and which elements of the built environment have a significant impact.

Phase-tunable Majorana bound states in a topological N-SNS junction

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: We theoretically study the differential conductance of a one-dimensional normal-superconductor-normal-superconductor (N-SNS) junction with a phase bias applied between the two superconductors. We consider specifically a junction formed by a spin-orbit coupled semiconducting nanowire with regions of the nanowire having superconducting pairing induced by a bulk $s$-wave superconductor. When the nanowire is tuned into a topologically non-trivial phase by a Zeeman field, it hosts zero-energy Majorana modes at its ends as well as at the interface between the two superconductors. The phase-dependent splitting of the Majorana modes gives rise to features in the differential conductance that offer a clear distinction between the topologically trivial and non-trivial phases. We calculate the transport properties of the junction numerically and also present a simple analytical model that captures the main properties of the predicted tunneling spectroscopy.

description: Combining galaxy cluster and void abundances breaks the degeneracy between mean matter density $Ω_{\rm m}$ and power spectrum normalization $σ_8$. In a first for voids, we constrain $Ω_{\rm m} = 0.21 \pm 0.10$ and $σ_8 = 0.95 \pm 0.21$ for a flat $Λ$CDM universe, using extreme-value statistics on the claimed largest cluster and void. The Planck-consistent results detect dark energy with two objects, independently of other dark energy probes. Cluster-void studies also offer complementarity in scale, density, and non-linearity - of particular interest for testing modified-gravity models.

Low-Income Housing Tax Credits and Private Activity Bonds: A Guide to Affordable Housing Development
Creators: name: Eyre, Samuel
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2004

description: In order to make development of multifamily affordable housing financially feasible, lowincome housing developers must be able to access various layers of equity and low-interest debt. Some common sources of debt and equity for multifamily affordable housing includes HOME and Affordable Housing Program (AHP) loans, HUD 202 moneys, local city grants and loans, the sale of Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC), and proceeds from Private Activity Bonds. HOME, AHP, HUD 202, and local grants and loans are typically used to fill gaps in a development budget, whereas the sale of tax credits and bond proceeds typically cover at least fifty percent of a given development budget. Most low-income housing developers are either strictly tax credit developers (those using the LIHTC program, mainly 9% credits), or strictly bond developers (those using Private Activity Bonds), or sometimes, large development groups are divided into tax credit specialists and bond specialists. However, the exciting thing is that Low Income Housing Tax Credits and Private Activity Bond proceeds can be used together to finance individual projects. Thus, it would seem advantageous for low-income housing developers to learn how both programs work in an effort to understand when and why these programs should be used individually or together. This paper is divided into three sections. The first two sections provide detailed explanations of how the LIHTC and Private Activity Bond programs work individually in multifamily low-income housing development transactions. These sections provide information on the history of each program, the purpose behind each program, the parties involved in carrying out a development under the auspices of each program, the steps a developer should take to successfully develop a project under each program, and the basic concepts and federal regulations behind each program. The third section of the paper provides an explanation of how the LIHTC and Private Activity Bond programs can be used together under a single development. Through an analysis of five North Carolina developments that received both bonds and tax credit awards in North Carolina in 2003, this section will also discuss some advantages and disadvantages to combining these two programs and illustrate market situations in which combining the two programs may prove favorable or unfavorable.

The effect of bundled housing and accessibility information on residential location choice and travel behavior: an experimental study
Creators: name: Rogers, Jennifer
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2009

description: The ability of an individual to travel via modes of transportation other than the single occupancy vehicle is limited by the availability of these alternative transportation modes near their home. The purpose of this research is to investigate the long-term effects of information on an individual's travel behavior. We hypothesize that if individuals who are making residential location decisions are provided with bundled housing and accessibility information, they will decide to live in more accessible locations and that they will travel fewer miles by car as a result. This is an experimental research study that involved incoming graduate and transfer undergraduate students at North Carolina State University (NCSU) and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC). We found that the average student at NCSU traveled between 4.2 and 6.2 fewer miles per day by single occupancy vehicle when accessing the university campus as a result of being exposed to the bundled housing and accessibility information. The average student selected a residence closer to the campus and had more transit stops located within a half mile of their residence. We were unable to detect an impact to UNC students, most likely due to the restrictive parking policies on campus and already short commuting distances. Foreign students and those who were previously familiar with transit that used the bundled housing and accessibility information traveled fewer miles than those who did not.
Variable-range hopping through marginally localized phonons

description: We investigate the effect of coupling Anderson localized particles in one dimension to a system of marginally localized phonons having a symmetry protected delocalized mode at zero frequency. This situation is naturally realized for electrons coupled to phonons in a disordered nano-wire as well as for ultra-cold fermions coupled to phonons of a superfluid in a one dimensional disordered trap. To determine if the coupled system can be many-body localized we analyze the phonon-mediated hopping transport for both the weak and strong coupling regimes. We show that the usual variable-range hopping mechanism involving a low-order phonon processes is ineffective at low temperature due to discreteness of the bath at the required energy. Instead, the system thermalizes through a many-body process involving exchange of a diverging number $n\propto -\log T$ of phonons in the low temperature limit. This effect leads to a highly singular prefactor to Mott's well known formula and strongly suppresses the variable range hopping rate. Finally we comment on possible implications of this physics in higher dimensional electron-phonon coupled systems.
