description: In 1956, prompted by Mao Zedong himself, the Qingdao symposium was convened to bring together scientists with training in "Morgan-Mendel" genetics and scientists following the Michurin school. The effects of government policy to this time had excluded the mostly western-trained geneticists from sharing their training, their skilled imagination and expertise, i n building China's agriculture. Michurin genetics, sponsored by Stalin's support of Lysenko since the 1940s, was based on the hypotheses that environmental influences were primary, including the idea of inheritance of acquired Characteristics. A study of Soviet influence is pertinent to understanding the importance of the 1956 Qingdao symposium. Doubts were already being voiced in China concerning the validity and sincerity of Soviet dictates and the quality of the advice being given in several realms of Soviet influence. This essay focuses on this event, which introduced a time of free discourse between these two ways of defining how to improve agricultural production, the Morgan-Mendel and the Michurinist.

description: Human alpha-defensins are cationic peptides with potent antitoxic, antimicrobial and chemotactic activities in the innate and adaptive immunity.  Bacillus anthracis produces a lethal factor [LF], which is a potent toxin, capable of cell lysis.  The molecular mechanism of the inhibition of LF by human alpha-defensins and the bacterial strain selectivity are not fully understood.  Also, the pore-formation model that relates the cationic property to the antibacterial activity of human alpha-defensins cannot fully explain the bacterial strain selectivity.  The aims of this dissertation were: a) to elucidate the molecular determinants and the nature of the inhibition of LF by two well-studied alpha-defensins, human neutrophil peptide 1 [HNP1] and human defensin 5 [HD5], and b) to explore the mechanism of bactericidal activities of HNP1 and HD5 against Staphylococcus aureus [S. aureus].  We hypothesized that: a) the nature of the contact residues within these peptides influences the inhibitory activity against LF and the antibacterial effect against S. aureus, and b) the quaternary structures of HNP1 and HD5 are crucial to the inhibition of LF and their antibacterial effect against S. aureus. We used alanine-scan mutagenesis of HNP1 and HD5 followed by functional assays to identify residues that contributed to LF inhibition and bactericidal activity against S. aureus.  The results identified that tryptophane 26 [Trp26] in HNP1and leucine 29 [Leu29] in HD5 were the essential residues for the inhibition of LF and the bactericidal activity against S. aureus.  Also, the results demonstrated that the hydrophobicity of HNP1 and HD5 as well as the dimerization and/or oligomerization were prerequisite to the LF inhibition and bactericidal activity against S. aureus.  We concluded that Trp26 and Leu29 in HNP1 and HD5, respectively, as well as the hydrophobicity and self-association were the molecular determinants for LF inhibition and the bactericidal activity against S. aureus.  The HNP1 and HD5 analogs are potentially useful tools for future studies towards the development of new anti-toxins.  Finally, the data can potentially lead researchers to the discovery of unknown biological activities of alpha-defensins.

description: We calculate the partition function $Z(G,Q,v)$ of the $Q$-state Potts model exactly for strips of the square and triangular lattices of various widths $L_y$ and arbitrarily great lengths $L_x$, with a variety of boundary conditions, and with $Q$ and $v$ restricted to satisfy conditions corresponding to the ferromagnetic phase transition on the associated two-dimensional lattices. From these calculations, in the limit $L_x \to \infty$, we determine the continuous accumulation loci ${\cal B}$ of the partition function zeros in the $v$ and $Q$ planes. Strips of the honeycomb lattice are also considered. We discuss some general features of these loci.

description: Realizing a quantum spin liquid (QSL) ground state in a real material is a leading issue in condensed matter physics research. In this pursuit, it is crucial to fully characterize the structure and influence of defects, as these can significantly affect the fragile QSL physics. Here, we perform a variety of cutting-edge synchrotron X-ray scattering and spectroscopy techniques, and we advance new methodologies for site-specific diffraction and L-edge Zn absorption spectroscopy. The experimental results along with our first-principles calculations address outstanding questions about the local and long-range structures of the two leading kagome QSL candidates, Zn-substituted barlowite Cu$_3$Zn$_{x}$Cu$_{1-x}$(OH)$_6$FBr and herbertsmithite Cu$_3$Zn(OH)$_6$Cl$_2$. On all length scales probed, there is no evidence that Zn substitutes onto the kagome layers, thereby preserving the QSL physics of the kagome lattice. Our calculations show that antisite disorder is not energetically favorable and is even less favorable in Zn-barlowite compared to herbertsmithite. Site-specific X-ray diffraction measurements of Zn-barlowite reveal that Cu$^{2+}$ and Zn$^{2+}$ selectively occupy distinct interlayer sites, in contrast to herbertsmithite. Using the first measured Zn L-edge inelastic X-ray absorption spectra combined with calculations, we discover a systematic correlation between the loss of inversion symmetry from pseudo-octahedral (herbertsmithite) to trigonal prismatic coordination (Zn-barlowite) with the emergence of a new peak. Overall, our measurements suggest that Zn-barlowite has structural advantages over herbertsmithite that make its magnetic properties closer to an ideal QSL candidate: its kagome layers are highly resistant to nonmagnetic defects while the interlayers can accommodate a higher amount of Zn substitution.

description: A fully microscopic model for the description of nuclear level density (NLD) in spherical nuclei is proposed. The model is derived by combining the partition function of the exact pairing solution plus the independent-particle model at finite temperature (EP+IPM) with that obtained by using the collective vibrational states calculated from the self-consistent Hartree-Fock mean field with MSk3 interaction plus the exact pairing and random-phases approximation (SC-HFEPRPA). Two important factors are taken into account in a fully microscopic way, namely the spin cut-off and vibrational enhancement factors are, respectively, calculated using the statistical thermodynamics and partition function of the SC-HFEPRPA without any fitting parameters. The numerical test for two spherical $^{60}$Ni and $^{90}$Zr nuclei shows that the collective vibrational enhancement is mostly dominated by the quadrupole and octupole excitations. This is the first microscopic model confirming such an effect, which was phenomenologically predicted long time ago and widely employed in several NLD models. In addition, the influence of collective vibrational enhancement on nuclear thermodynamic quantities such as excitation energy, specific heat capacity and entropy is also studied by using the proposed model.

description: Searches for extrasolar planets have uncovered an astonishing diversity of planetary systems, yet the frequency of solar system analogs remains unknown. The gravitational microlensing planet search method is potentially sensitive to multiple-planet systems containing analogs of all the solar system planets except Mercury. We report the detection of a multiple-planet system with microlensing. We identify two planets with masses of ~0.71 and ~0.27 times the mass of Jupiter and orbital separations of ~2.3 and ~4.6 astronomical units orbiting a primary star of mass ~0.50 solar masses at a distance of ~1.5 kiloparsecs. This system resembles a scaled version of our solar system in that the mass ratio, separation ratio, and equilibrium temperatures of the planets are similar to those of Jupiter and Saturn. These planets could not have been detected with other techniques; their discovery from only six confirmed microlensing planet detections suggests that solar system analogs may be common.

description: Inspired by the path followed by Matthias Ballauff over the past 20 years, the development of thermosensitive core-shell microgel structures is reviewed. Different chemical approaches, from hard nanoparticle cores to double stimuli-responsive microgels have been devised and successfully implemented by many different groups. Some of the rich variety of these systems is presented, as well as some recent progress in structural analysis of such microstructures by small-angle scattering of neutrons or X-rays, including modeling approaches. In the last part, again following early work by the group of Matthias Ballauff, applications with particular emphasis on incorporation of catalytic nanoparticles inside core-shell structures -- stabilizing the nanoparticles and granting external control over activity -- will be discussed, as well as core-shell microgels at interfaces.

description: There are many fuzzy models like Fuzzy matrices, Fuzzy Cognitive Maps, Fuzzy relational Maps, Fuzzy Associative Memories, Bidirectional Associative memories and so on. But almost all these models can give only one sided solution like hidden pattern or a resultant output vector dependent on the input vector depending in the problem at hand. So for the first time we have defined a n-adaptive fuzzy model which can view or analyze the problem in n ways (n >=2) Though we have defined these n- adaptive fuzzy models theorectically we are not in a position to get a n-adaptive fuzzy model for n > 2 for practical real world problems. The highlight of this model is its capacity to analyze the same problem in different ways thereby arriving at various solutions that mirror multiple perspectives. We have used the 2-adaptive fuzzy model having the two fuzzy models, fuzzy matrices model and BAMs viz. model to analyze the views of public about HIV/ AIDS disease, patient and the awareness program. This book has five chapters and 6 appendices. The first chapter just recalls the definition of four fuzzy models used in this book and gives illustration of some of them. Chapter two introduces the new n-adaptive fuzzy models. Chapter three uses for the first time 2 adaptive fuzzy models to study psychological and sociological problems about HIV/AIDS. Chapter four gives an outline of the interviews. Chapter five gives the suggestions and conclusion based on our study. Of the 6 appendices four of them are C-program made to make the working of the fuzzy model simple.

description: This paper proposes a computer-assisted system for the surgical treatment of exophthalmia. This treatment is classically characterized by a de-compression of the orbit, by the mean of an orbital walls osteotomy. The plan-ning of this osteotomy consists in defining the size and the location of the de-compression hole. A biomechanical model of the orbital soft tissues and its in-teractions with the walls are provided here, in order to help surgeons in the definition of the osteotomy planning. The model is defined by a generic Finite Element poro-elastic mesh of the orbit. This generic model is automatically adapted to the morphologies of four patients, extracted from TDM exams. Four different FE models are then generated and used to simulate osteotomies in the maxillary or ethmoid sinuses regions. Heterogeneous results are observed, with different backwards movements of the ocular globe according to the size and/or the location of the hole.

description: We present the results obtained from an objective search for stellar clusters, both in the currently active nuclear starburst region, and in the post-starburst disk of M82. Images obtained with the HST/ACS in F435W(B), F555W(V), and F814W(I) filters were used in the search for the clusters. We detected 653 clusters of which 393 are located outside the central 450 pc in the post-starburst disk of M82. The luminosity function of the detected clusters show an apparent turnover at B=22 mag (M_B=-5.8), which we interpret from Monte Carlo simulations as due to incompleteness in the detection of faint clusters, rather than an intrinsic log-normal distribution. We derived a photometric mass of every detected cluster from models of simple stellar populations assuming a mean age of either an 8 (nuclear clusters) or 100 (disk clusters) million years old. The mass functions of the disk (older) and the nuclear (younger) clusters follow power-laws, the former being marginally flatter (alpha=1.5+/-0.1) than the latter (alpha=1.8+/-0.1). The distribution of sizes (Full Width at Half Maximum) of clusters brighter than the apparent turn-over magnitude (mass>2E+4 Mo) can be described by a log-normal function. This function peaks at 10 pc for clusters more massive than 1E+5 Mo, whereas for lower masses, the peak is marginally shifted to larger values for the younger, and smaller values for the older clusters. The observed trend towards flattening of the mass function with age, together with an over-abundance of older compact clusters, imply that cluster disruption in M82 is both dependent on the mass and size of the clusters.

Parent-involved career exploration : the experience of adolescents and parents
Creators: name: Penner, Kurt S.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The purpose of this study was to explore the experience of students and parents who participated in an innovative, brief technique in career counselling. Eight high school students in grades 10 and 11 who received one session of a Parent Involved Career Exploration (PICE) intervention with a career counsellor were interviewed; six involved parents were interviewed as well. This study utilized a phenomenological approach to investigate students' and parents' experience of the PICE session and their perspectives on its impact on student career development over the ensuing six months. Participants' interpretations were grouped into eight themes: Goals, evaluation of session process and content, impact on career perspective and actions, impact on family dynamics, attributions for change, and direct suggestions for improvement of PICE. Results indicated most participants related their participation in the PICE session to small, but practical, gains in career development; gains were often related to beliefs and perspectives participants felt were more productive. Since this approach appears to merit further attention, implications for practice and further research are discussed.

Aberrations in (3+1)D Bragg diffraction using pulsed Gaussian laser beams

description: We analyze the transfer function of a three-dimensional atomic Bragg beamsplitter formed by two counterpropagating pulsed Gaussian laser beams. Even for ultracold atomic ensembles, the transfer efficiency depends significantly on the residual velocity of the particles as well as on losses into higher diffraction orders. Additional aberrations are caused by the spatial intensity variation and wavefront curvature of the Gaussian beam envelope, studied with (3+1)D numerical simulations. The temporal pulse shape also affects the transfer efficiency significantly. Thus, we consider the practically important rectangular-, Gaussian-, Blackman- and hyperbolic secant pulses. For the latter, we can describe the time-dependent response analytically with the Demkov-Kunike method. The experimentally observed stretching of the $π$-pulse time is explained from a renormalization of the simple Pendellösung frequency. Finally, we compare the analytical predictions for the velocity-dependent transfer function with effective (1+1)D numerical simulations for pulsed Gaussian beams, as well as experimental data and find very good agreement, considering a mixture of Bose-Einstein condensate and thermal cloud.

description: The current document under the title “D7.1 Communication and Dissemination Strategy and Plan” defines the communication and dissemination strategy of the project and describes the channels as well as the tools to be utilized during the EFFECTOR’s lifecycle. Moreover, it includes the project’s communication and dissemination plan and for easier comprehension by the reader, the plan is divided in two core parts, the Calendar of Communication and Dissemination Activities and the Action Plan. The first one consists a timeline of activities that stem from the DoA and other interlinked activities, while the second lists the project partners’ intentions for disseminating the project under various methods. The consortium partners expressed their intentions via a questionnaire, prepared by ICCS, and provided their individual dissemination plan in regards to the project. It is noteworthy that specifically in scientific publications, the consortium will put effort on utilizing a very promising platform created and supported by EC, the Open Research Europe. This platform will assist the EFFECTOR partners to overcome difficulties that arise from obstacles towards open access of project’s results that occur from publishers’ policy (e.g. embargo period). D7.1 is a public deliverable of this project, part of WP7 and additionally includes information about the project's scope and objectives as well as the description of WP7 in order to ensure that no prior knowledge related to the project, the DoA and the other WP7 deliverables is requested from the reader. Overall, it is based on, and is consistent with the DoA and the GA, but is not a substitute for reading these documents

description: Data exfiltration is the unauthorized leakage of confidential data from a particular system. It is a specific form of intrusion that is particularly hard to catch due to the most common cause: an insider entity who is responsible for the leak. That entity could be a person employed in the organization or a malicious hardware component bought from an unreliable third party. Catching such intrusions, therefore, can be extremely difficult. We describe a framework comprising multiple parameters that are constantly monitored in a system. These parameters can cover the entire stack of the computer architecture, from the hardware up to the application layer. Malicious behavior is detected by different modules monitoring these parameters and an aggregated attack alert is produced if multiple modules detect malicious activity within a short period of time. A more distributed and comprehensive monitoring framework should ensure that designing an attack becomes extremely difficult since an attack must go through multiple detectors present in the system without raising any alarms.

description: Current state-of-the-art computer simulations allow us to build 3D dynamical and radiative models of stars from physical first principles with a high degree of realism. The radiative 3D dynamical stellar models obtained with the StellarBox code take into account the effects of turbulence, stellar abundances, a realistic equation of state, and radiative energy transport. In this talk, I will discuss the effects of rotation on the turbulent dynamics and surface structure for a 1.47 Msun star for rotational periods of 1 and 14 days. The simulations are performed with the computational domain at various latitudes. The models reproduce stellar granulation, the subsurface shear layer, structural changes in convection, and the tachocline, which is the interface between the inner radiative zone and the outer convection zone and plays a crucial role in stellar variability. In particular, the model results reveal the formation of differential rotation and meridional circulation.

description: This thesis adds a new take to the extensive historiography on the Pratt Street Riot, an early Civil War event in which one of the first Northern regiments sent to defend the capital was attacked by a mob in Baltimore as it marched through the city on April 19, 1861. The focus is not on the Pratt Street Riot as it related to the people and events in Baltimore, but instead on how the riot affected Northern public opinion as it related both to Baltimore and the Massachusetts regiment that was attacked. The Sixth Massachusetts is at the center of this narrative, and its status in the public before, during, and after the riot is used to show how seminal events in history like the outbreak of Civil War can affect public memory of a random volunteer state militia regiment or any other institution. The controversy over how the Pratt Street Riot should be remembered in the days, years, and decades after April 19, 1861 is also used to show how public memory is contested and can remain static or change dramatically over time. Newspaper articles, letters, and unit histories were used along with secondary sources to build the argument of this thesis.

During secondary neurulation, which takes place in posterior regions, mesenchymal cells coalesce into a rod-like structure and subsequently undergo a mesenchymal-to-epithelial transition (MET) to create a lumen and form the neural tube. Although extensive studies have furthered our understanding of primary neurulation, mechanisms underlying secondary neurulation are not clearly understood.  Several pieces of evidence from this research dissertation and published by other laboratories suggest that the zebrafish embryo undergoes a mode of secondary neurulation. Moreover, the optical properties of zebrafish embryos have enabled a detailed and real-time analysis of the dynamic cell behaviors that drive neurulation. These observations establish the zebrafish as a prime model system to study the molecular underpinnings of secondary neurulation.  Studies outlined in this dissertation have revealed several molecules implicated in different stages of neurulation. During neural convergence, cells migrate in a polarized manner towards the midline. Generation of cell traction and polarization are essential during migration. Evidence suggests that the cell adhesion molecule N-cadherin promotes cell movement by stabilizing cell-cell contacts, thereby enabling cell traction. Polarization of cell movement appears to be mediated by the microtubule network, as treatment with the microtubule-destabilizing drug nocodazole randomizes the orientation of membrane protrusions. A central role for microtubules is further supported by the analysis of linguini mutants in which microtubules appear unstable and cells behave in a similar manner as in nocodazole-treated embryos.  During MET, the centrosome migrates from a central position close to the nucleus to the apical cortex, where it docks and becomes a nucleating center for cilia. In par3-deficient cells, the centrosome fails to migrate to the apical surface and as a consequence cilia form intracellularly. This study identifies a previously undescribed role for Par3 in centrosome migration.  Overall, these studies establish the zebrafish as a model system to study secondary neurulation and have identified key players that are required for different phases of secondary neurulation.

description: Dipolar interaction between the magnetic moments of electrons is studied as a source for electron spin decay in quantum dots or arrays of quantum dots. This magnetic interaction will govern spin decay, after other sources, such as the coupling to nuclear spins or spin orbit coupling, have been eliminated by a suitable sample design. Electron-electron (Coulomb) interactions, important for magnetic properties, are included. Decomposing the dipolar operator according to the symmetric group of electron permutations allows one to deduce vanishing decay channels as a function of electron number and spatial symmetries of the quantum dot(s). Moreover, we incorporate the possibility of rapid phonon induced spin conserving transitions which crucially affect the temperature dependence of spin decay rates. An interesting result is that a sharp increase of the spin decay rate occurs already at relatively low temperatures.

description: Brown dwarfs are characterized by low masses that preclude the sustained hydrogen fusion characteristic of stars on the main sequence. Very cool, low mass M dwarfs are abundant within our galaxy and can be identified through various spectral features, such as the presence of TiO absorption bands. L dwarfs, though less common, are even cooler than M dwarfs, and are characterized by the presence of metallic hydrides in their spectra. We analyze the optical and infrared spectra of 42 M and L dwarfs, observed with the Magellan Echellette (MagE) optical spectrograph and Magellan infrared spectrometer FIRE in order to investigate the relationship between metallicity and galactic dynamics for these low mass objects. In particular, we examine whether older, higher metallicity objects have an increased galactic motion due to movement away from the galactic disk. We first look for evidence of this relationship within the two subsamples of M dwarfs and L dwarfs. We then compare the motions of the L Dwarfs and M dwarfs in our sample to see if the proposed metallicity-motion relationship provides kinematic evidence that M Dwarfs are older than L Dwarfs.

description: Handwriting styles as clues for the dating of medieval manuscripts Training in use and study of special documents This paper serves as a handout for non-specialists and posits a rough date for medieval codices based on the handwriting. The paper presents examples of different handwriting styles that were used during the Middle Ages; especially Carolingian minuscule, Capitalis quadrata, Romanesque minuscule, Gothic minuscule, textualis, textura, and Bastard. It is also shows how these orthographic styles can be used to date medieval books within a range of a century or generation.
Machine Learning Based Water Analysis Using an Underwater Robot

description: Water Contamination is an important issue in many cases, for example aquaculture and aquaponics and dealing with it requires to recognize and identify it. While some approaches for water analysis exist, they either are non-spatial or only use 2D data. To solve that issue, this thesis deals with developing an approach that can transform spatial data into features and then use them with standard classifiers to classify different kinds of contamination, as well as introduce requirements for a robotic system, which is capable of gathering the data. o validate this approach, data was simulated in the form of multiple distributions exhibiting different properties to examine how well the approach handles them. Besides that, different sets of measurements were used with different spatial resolutions alongside a whole set of classifiers, and additional factors such as incomplete data and measurements deviating from their planned position were included. The classifier “Nearest Neighbors” proves to be the most potent for classification and delivers good results even for low-resolution data. Incompleteness and Deviation show effects with rising degree, and should be avoided, but the approach still delivers robust results, proving that with a robot capable of making and delivering precise measurements, the approach is viable.

description: The Sunyaev-Zeldovich (SZ) effect provides a powerful cosmological probe, which traditionally is approached independently as cluster number count (CNC) or power spectrum (PS) analysis. Here, we devise a new method for analysing the $y$-map by introducing the survey completeness function, conventionally only used in the CNC analysis, in the $yy$-PS modeling. This provides a systematic method, based mainly on SZ observables, for obtaining two complementary $y$-maps, one incorporating detected/resolved clusters and the other relying only on diffuse/unresolved SZ contributions. We use the catalogue of clusters obtained in the \Planck CNC analysis to define the completeness function linking these two $y$-maps. The split depends on the chosen signal-to-noise detection threshold, which we vary in our discussion. We carefully propagate the effect of completeness cuts on the non-Gaussian error contributions in the $yy$-PS analysis, highlighting the benefits of masking massive clusters. Our analysis of the \Planck $yy$-PS for the unresolved component yields a mass bias of $b=0.15\pm0.04$, consistent with the standard value ($b\approx0.2$), in comparison to $b=0.4\pm 0.05$ for the total $yy$-PS. We find indications for this drift being driven by the CIB-tSZ cross correlation, which dominantly originates from clusters in the resolved component of the $y$-map. Another possible explanation is the presence of a mass-dependent bias, which has been theoretically motivated and can be quantified with our novel method. We furthermore find first hints for the presence of the 2-halo terms in the $yy$-PS. Finally, the proposed method provides a new framework for combining the complementary information of the CNC and PS analyses in upcoming SZ surveys.

description: A hero or an ideal individual is often venerated as such to fulfill a social or psychological need, and the embrace of Johnny Unitas as a symbol of the ideal Cold War common man is no different.  Johnny Unitas and his identity as a suburban father and husband allowed men in the 1950's and 1960's to come to terms with the changing state of masculinity.  By representing the masculine identity that developed in the post-war era while being a successful professional football player, Johnny Unitas allowed men to embrace changes to traditional masculinity by showing the possibility of maintaining traditional traits of masculinity while embracing this new lifestyle.  This article examines the image of Johnny Unitas interpreted by middle and working class men and the ways in which sportswriters and advertisers promoted views of Unitas as the ideal Cold War common man.

description: The peculiar linear temperature-dependent swelling of core-shell microgels has been conjectured to be linked to the core-shell architecture combining materials of different transition temperatures. Here the structure of pNIPMAM-core and pNNPAM-shell microgels in water is studied as a function of temperature using small-angle neutron scattering with selective deuteration. Photon correlation spectroscopy is used to scrutinize the swelling behaviour of the colloidal particles and reveals linear swelling. Moreover, these experiments are also employed to check the influence of deuteration on swelling. Using a form free multi-shell reverse Monte Carlo approach, the small-angle scattering data are converted into radial monomer density profiles. The comparison of 'core-only' particles consisting of identical cores to fully hydrogenated core-shell microgels, and finally to H core/D shell architectures unambiguously shows that core and shell monomers display gradient profiles with strong interpenetration, leading to cores embedded in shells which are bigger than their isolated 'core only' precursor particles. This surprising result is further generalized to different core cross linker contents, for temperature ranges encompassing both transitions. Our analysis demonstrates that the internal structure of pNIPMAM-core and pNNPAM-shell microgels is heterogeneous and strongly interpenetrated, presumably allowing only progressive core swelling at temperatures intermediate to both transition temperatures, thus promoting linear swelling behaviour.

description: The traditional leaching process is characterized by extensive reaction time, low efficiency, and considerable leaching reagent consumption. It was well demonstrated that using ultrasound could effectively enhance the leaching reaction rate by removing the passivating layer and increasing the mass transfer rates. This improvement would result from bubble cavitation and other mechanical-chemical mechanisms that ultrasounds can generate during ultrasound-assisted leaching (UAL). Thus, these days using UAL for the recovery and recycling of various valuable metals has markedly received attention as an environmentally friendly process. However, surprisingly no comprehensive overview has been provided to focus on various reaction mechanisms through the applications of UAL and deliberate them for nearly two decades. This work has explored various applications of UAL applied for ore and waste processing by a systematic approach to fill this gap. An overview of different mechanisms (mechanical, thermal, sonochemical) based on main ultrasound operating variables (frequency, power, and time) and their level of leaching effectiveness on the leaching metallurgical responses in varied conditions was discussed in detail. It was indicated that the common approach for conducting UAL investigation mainly focuses on improving the leaching efficiency of metals by using single-frequency ultrasound. While analyzing the correlation between ultrasonic cavitation theory and assisted leaching process and exploring the systematic effect of multi-frequency ultrasonic system need to be further clarified in future research. In general, the present work is going to potentially pave the path for understanding UAL and further its development in the future.
