description: We address the long-standing mystery of the nonmagnetic insulating state of the intermediate valence compound SmB$_6$. Within a combination of the local density approximation (LDA) and an exact diagonalization (ED) of an effective discrete Anderson impurity model, the intermediate valence ground state with the $f$-shell occupation $\langle n_{4f} \rangle=5.6$ is found for the Sm atom in SmB$_6$. This ground state is a singlet, and the first excited triplet state $\sim 3$ meV higher in the energy. SmB$_6$ is a narrow band insulator already in LDA, with the direct band gap of $\sim 10$ meV. The electron correlations increase the band gap which now becomes indirect. Thus, the many-body effects are relevant to form the indirect band gap, crucial for the idea of ``topological Kondo insulator" in SmB$_6$. Also, an actinide analog PuB$_6$ is considered, and the intermediate valence singlet ground state is found for the Pu atom. We propose that [Sm,Pu]B$_6$ belong to a new class of the intermediate valence materials with the multi-orbital ``Kondo-like" singlet ground-state. Crucial role of complex spin-orbital $f^n$-$f^{n+1}$ multiplet structure differently hybridized with ligand states in such Racah materials is discussed.
"This institution is not good for mental health:"  Queer Students Understanding UNC’s Counseling and Psychological Services (CAPS) as an Authoritarian Structure
Creators: name: Bors, Allory
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2018

description: This paper explores the ways that nine (ten, including the researcher) queer-identified UNC-Chapel Hill undergraduate students characterize their relationships to university-provided mental health resources, known as CAPS. I analyzed data from these nine interviews and conclude that the way interviewees speak about their experiences reveals their perceptions of CAPS as an authoritarian structure, and as largely ill-equipped to respond to queer students’ mental health needs. I begin with a brief review of existing literature, followed by descriptions of how students understood the concept of “mental health,” which is at odds with their experiences at CAPS and their meanings, which are laid out in the next section. I end with preliminary recommendations for the improvement of CAPS as a mental health resource for queer students, which include, but are not limited to: further research about the relationship between CAPS and queer students, increased transparency about what queer competent or queer specific services CAPS is able to provide, educational and cultural sensitivity training for CAPS providers regarding queer student experiences and appropriate language, and increased accommodation of queer and mentally ill students in the university at large.

description: The climate of Earth is susceptible to catastrophes that could threaten the longevity of human civilization. Geoengineering to reduce incoming solar radiation has been suggested as a way to mediate the warming effects of contemporary climate change, but a geoengineering program for thousands of years could also be used to enlarge the size of the polar ice caps and create a permanently cooler climate. Such a large ice cap state would make Earth less susceptible to climate threats and could allow human civilization to survive further into the future than otherwise possible. Intentionally extending Earth's glacial coverage will require uninterrupted commitment to this program for millenia but would ultimately reach a cooler equilibrium state where geoengineering is no longer needed. Whether or not this program is ever attempted, this concept illustrates the need to identify preference among potential climate states to ensure the long-term success of civilization.

description: The human connectome is the object of an intensive research today. In these graphs, the vertices correspond to the small areas of the gray matter, and two vertices are connected by an edge, if a diffusion-MRI based workflow finds connections between those areas. One main question of the field is discovering the directions of the edges. In a previous work we have reported the construction of the Budapest Reference Connectome Server http://connectome.pitgroup.org from the data recorded in the Human Connectome Project of the NIH. After the server had been published, we recognized a surprising and unforeseen property of it: The server can generate the braingraph of connections that are present in at least $k$ graphs out of the 418, for any value of $k=1,2,...,418$. When the value of $k$ is changed from $k=418$ through 1 by moving a slider at the webserver from right to left, more and more edges appear in the consensus graph. The astonishing observation is that the appearance of the new edges is not random: it is similar to a growing tree. We hypothesize that this movement of the slider in the webserver may copy the development of the connections in the human brain in the following sense: the connections that are present in all subjects are the oldest ones, and those that are present in a decreasing fraction of subjects are gradually the newer connections in the individual brain development. An animation on the phenomenon is available at https://youtu.be/EnWwIf_HNjw. Based on this hypothesis, we can assign directions to the edges of the connectome as follows: Let $G_i$ denote the consensus connectome where each edge is present in at least $i$ graphs. Suppose that vertex $v$ is isolated in $G_{k+1}$, and becomes connected to a vertex $u$ in $G_k$, where $u$ was connected to other vertices already in $G_{k+1}$. Then we direct this $(v,u)$ edge from $v$ to $u$.

description: The design of anion-exchange membranes, or AEMs, has attracted a great deal of attention in recent years due to the potential value of AEMs for anion transport in electrochemical energy systems. Anion-exchange membranes are polyelectrolytes made by covalently tethering positively charged groups to a polymer backbone, generally for the purpose of promoting hydroxide transport. Questions surrounding the improvement of hydroxide transport and the long-term stability of these materials under caustic conditions drive research in this field. Understanding the decomposition pathways of the tethered cation is crucial for constructing AEMs with high durability, making the design of model compounds and degradation experiments a necessity. The synthesis of monomers based on norbornene makes well-controlled polymerization methods like ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) and vinyl addition polymerization accessible. In turn, good control of the polymerization reaction allows for predictable polymer molecular weights and narrow molecular weight distributions, control over polymer composition, chain-end fidelity, and access to unique polymer architectures. The many possibilities in polymer and cationic structures have enormous influence over the properties and alkaline stability of the resulting anion-exchange material. The following dissertation details our efforts to synthesize and elucidate the degradation pathways of main group cations made from sulfur and phosphorus, as well as incorporate these cations into well-defined polymers.

description: We report the quantum phase diagram of a one-dimensional Coulomb wire obtained using the path integral Monte Carlo (PIMC) method. The exact knowledge of the nodal points of this system permits us to find the energy in an exact way, solving the sign problem which spoils fermionic calculations in higher dimensions. The results obtained allow for the determination of the stability domain, in terms of density and temperature, of the one-dimensional Wigner crystal. At low temperatures, the quantum wire reaches the quantum-degenerate regime, which is also described by the diffusion Monte Carlo method. Increasing the temperature the system transforms to a classical Boltzmann gas which we simulate using classical Monte Carlo. At large enough density, we identify a one-dimensional ideal Fermi gas which remains quantum up to higher temperatures than in two- and three-dimensional electron gases. The obtained phase diagram as well as the energetic and structural properties of this system are relevant to experiments with electrons in quantum wires and to Coulomb ions in one-dimensional confinement.

description: Over the past 15 years, the understanding of pluton formation has changed dramatically. Coleman et al. (2004), used geochronological data to show that the Tuolumne Intrusive Suite (TIS; Figure 1) was formed incrementally, with the oldest rocks cropping at the margins and the youngest rocks at the center. Coleman et al. (2012) proposed that downward-stacking, domed laccoliths fit the data, with the oldest units pushed to the margins and tilted by intrusion of new units (Fig 2). Here we analyze the rate of incremental emplacement of the Half Dome Granodiorite (HDG) in its type locality.

Creators: name: Dagdelen, Mustafa Kemal
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries

description: This thesis concentrates on the international relations of Turkey by studying one of the significant parameters of the world affairs, the Energy Security issue, and Robert 0. Keohane and Joseph S. Nye's Complex Interdependence concept. The research is conducted through two case studies between Turkey and two different neighboring actors, Iran and the European Union. This thesis is a qualitative study with descriptive analyses on the literature of the interdependence and the energy security concepts. By revealing mutual dependences between Turkey, Iran, and the European Union, with different vulnerabilities, the results of this scholarly quest suggest that the interdependent nature of the Energy Security issue leads Turkey to be a multi-directional actor both in the regional and global arena. Finally, contrary to such perspectives, which are stating that Turkey shifts toward the East or turns away from the West, this thesis finds that Turkey has begun to reconsider its position in order to both meet its needs and maximize the benefits from its possessions.

Inequality, Credit, and Housing: A Mechanism to Explain Financial Crises?
Creators: name: Contarino, Alexander
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2017

description: This paper analyzes the effects of lagged changes in income inequality on credit growth
and changes in housing prices. The theoretical model developed herein, borrowed heavily from
Bengui and Phan (2016), predicts that growing income inequality should lead to credit growth
and positive changes in housing prices. Using a panel dataset spanning 14 developed countries
over 130 years, this model is tested empirically by applying first-difference ordinary least
squares regressions with year and country fixed effects, as well as with lagged values for key
predictive variables. The results indicate that income inequality is insignificant in predicting
credit growth. However, lagged income inequality is significant in predicting changes in housing
prices. Over the full sample, the fourth lag has a significantly positive coefficient. This result is
robust through a battery of checks. The finding thus provides evidence for the hypothesis that
growing inequality is associated with growing housing prices.

The theory is established in terms of the fundamental conservation and symmetry principles, with special consideration given to the symmetry breaking of the density fields occurring in actual flows. The results reveal the sensitivity/insensitivity of the evolution of a mixing front neighbouring light/heavy fluid to the degree of symmetry breaking, and also explain the distinct evolutions in two experiments with the same configurations.

Probing Possible Triggers of the Mesenchymal to Amoeboid Transition in NIH-3T3
Creators: name: Roach, Nathan
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2015

description: In this paper we begin the investigation of underlying mechanisms of the mesenchymal amoeboid transition in two and three dimensions using a comparative approach between the cell line CHO (a Chinese Hamster Ovary cell line known to be blebby amoeboid migratory on/in two/three dimensional collagen) and the mesenchymally migratory cell lines NIH-3T3 (a mouse embryo fibroblast) and DU-145 (a human prostate cancer cell line). We wish to probe how microtubule polymerization and generation of focal adhesions influence this mechanism in vitro. Through plating cells in three dimensional collagen matrices, immunofluorescent imaging, and various cell treatments we provide support for the hypothesis that regulation of microtubule structure and focal adhesion deposition are key aspects of the transition of mesenchymal cell migration to a blebby amoeboid migratory phenotype.

description: We consider a queueing system consisting of two non-identical exponential servers, where each server has its own dedicated queue and serves the customers in that queue FCFS. Customers arrive according to a Poisson process and join the queue promising the shortest expected delay, which is a natural and near-optimal policy for systems with non-identical servers. This system can be modeled as an inhomogeneous random walk in the quadrant. By stretching the boundaries of the compensation approach we prove that the equilibrium distribution of this random walk can be expressed as a series of product-forms that can be determined recursively. The resulting series expression is directly amenable for numerical calculations and it also provides insight in the asymptotic behavior of the equilibrium probabilities as one of the state coordinates tends to infinity.

description: Tomato (from the genus Solanum lycopersicum) is a widely cultivated and important crop worldwide. The production of tomatoes suffers huge losses in production due to diseases such as early blight, fusarium wilt, damping off, late blight etc... Early blight, whose causal agent is Alternaria tomatophila, results in major loss both in quantity and quality of fruit yield, crop loss is variable but can reach up to 78%. The disease symptoms appear as dark lesions on stems, leaves and fruits of tomato which can be necrotic. We evaluate the efficacy of 26 strains of yeasts in controlling tomato early blight in 2 different settings: on tomatoes in the greenhouse and in dual culture assays in the laboratory. The purpose of this is screening potential biological control agents amongst these yeasts for tomato early blight. We also test early blight causal pathogen’s spore production according to the storage method, in different growth chambers to identify the ideal storage/growth conditions for future experiments. We also perform microscopic observation of the yeast cells, and a single spore isolation of A. tomatophila. All the tested yeasts showed positive rates of inhibition of A. tomatophila to varying degrees. In vivo a few yeasts showed promising disease controlling potential. The ideal storage condition is -80°C in 25°C or 28°C with a 12h photoperiod. They all exhibit different bioactivity mechanisms warranting further study
Quantification of Interneuron Damage in a Mouse Model for Prenatal Alcohol Exposure
Creators: name: Park, Sung
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2015

description: Prenatal alcohol exposure (PAE) can result in a range of mental disabilities and physical
defects. Because adults affected by PAE demonstrate increased susceptibility to alcohol
dependence, it was hypothesized that PAE leads to the loss of inhibitory GABAergic
interneurons in corticostriatal circuits that regulate reward perception. Offspring of mice that
experienced acute ethanol exposure on gestation day 7 (GD 7) were used as an animal model.
Intracranial self-stimulation studies showed a marked difference in threshold for non-exposed
controls and PAE mice during the first 15 minutes following morphine injection, but no
significant difference was shown with alcohol or cocaine. Immunohistochemistry against
parvalbumin was performed to visualize the GABAergic interneurons of the CNS in the nucleus
accumbens, medial prefrontal cortex, dorsal striatum, and medial septum. A preliminary count of
the interneurons in the nucleus accumbens showed no difference between control and PAE mice.
In the future, further quantification of GABAergic interneurons in all four regions of interest may
conclude that maternal ethanol ingestion on GD 7 causes significant damage to the normal
distribution of inhibitory interneurons in CNS structures associated with reward perception.
Scaling of the photon index vs mass accretion rate correlation and estimate of black hole mass in M101 ULX-1

description: We report the results of Swift and Chandra observations of an ultra-luminous X-ray source, ULX-1 in M101. We show strong observational evidence that M101 ULX-1 undergoes spectral transitions from the low/hard state to the high/soft state during these observations. The spectra of M101 ULX-1 are well fitted by the so-called bulk motion Comptonization (BMC) model for all spectral states. We have established the photon index (Γ) saturation level, Γ_{sat}=2.8 +/- 0.1, in the Γvs. mass accretion rate (\dot M) correlation. This Γ-\dot M correlation allows us to evaluate black hole (BH) mass in M101 ULX-1 to be M_{BH}~(3.2 - 4.3)x10^4 solar masses assuming the spread in distance to M101 (from 6.4+/- 0.5 Mpc to 7.4+/-0.6 Mpc). For this BH mass estimate we use the scaling method taking Galactic BHs XTE~J1550-564, H~1743-322 and 4U~1630-472 as reference sources. The Gamma vs. \dot M correlation revealed in M101~ULX-1 is similar to that in a number of Galactic BHs and exhibits clearly the correlation along with the strong Γsaturation at ~2.8. This is robust observational evidence for the presence of a BH in M101 ULX-1. We also find that the seed (disk) photon temperatures are quite low, of order of 40-100 eV which is consistent with high BH mass in M101~ULX-1. Thus, we suggest that the central object in M101 ULX-1 has intermediate BH mass of order 10^{4} solar masses

description: The propagation of light in a resonant atomic vapor can \textit{a priori} be thought of as a multiple scattering process, in which each scattering event redistributes both the direction and the frequency of the photons. Particularly, the frequency redistribution may result in Lévy flights of photons, directly affecting the transport properties of light in a resonant atomic vapor and turning this propagation into a superdifusion process. Here, we report on a Monte-Carlo simulation developed to study the evolution of the spectrum of the light in a resonant thermal vapor. We observe the gradual change of the spectrum and its convergence towards a regime of Complete Frequency Redistribution as the number of scattering events increases. We also analyse the probability density function of the step length of photons between emissions and reabsorptions in the vapor, which governs the statistics of the light diffusion. We observe two different regime in the light transport: superdiffusive when the vapor is excited near the line center and normal diffusion for excitation far from the line center. The regime of Complete Frequency Redistribution is not reached for excitation far from resonance even after many absorption/reemission cycles due to correlations between emitted and absorbed frequencies.

Electrically Evoked Dopamine Release in Virgin and Postpartum Rats: Lack of Modulation by Nasal Oxytocin
Creators: name: Mace, Kyla
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: The oxytocin (OT) and dopamine (DA) systems are highly intertwined and have been implicated in a number of similar behaviors, particularly social, sexual, and maternal behaviors. However, the direct pharmacological effect of OT administration on the DA system is yet to be determined. Additionally, although nasal OT is the primary route of administration in human research, it is rarely used in animal studies, with researchers often relying on other routes for systemic OT administration (e.g., intraperitoneal injection). The present study aims to fill this gap in the literature by examining the effect of nasal OT on the DA system using fast-scan cyclic voltammetry. Specifically, stimulated DA release in the nucleus accumbens was measured before and after nasal OT administration in female rats. Because the peripartum period is rife with neuroendocrine changes, both virgin and postpartum animals were used to examine how pregnancy affects OT-DA interactions. However, no effect of OT was found, which is inconsistent with past research and suggests an indirect mechanism by which OT affects DA and DA-driven behaviors. Parity status was found to have a significant effect on baseline levels of evoked DA release, with postpartum animals showing larger concentrations of DA compared to virgin females. This corroborates past studies finding alterations in the DAergic system following pregnancy.

description: We investigate the ionization state of the Extended Emission-Line Regions (EELRs) around two compact steep-spectrum (CSS) radio galaxies, 3C~268.3 and 3C~303.1, in order to identify the contribution of photoionization and shock-ionization. We perform a new spectroscopical (long-slit) analysis with GMOS/Gemini with the slit oriented in the radio-jet direction, where outflows are known to exist. The [Ne V]$λ3426$ emission is the most interesting feature of the spectra and the key to breaking the degeneracy between the models: since this emission-line is more extended than HeII, it challenges the ionization structure proposed by any photoionization model, also its intensity relative to H$β$ does not behave as expected with respect to the ionization parameter U in the same scenario. On the contrary, when it is compared to the intensity of [OII]$\lambda3727$/H$β$ and all these results are joined, the whole scenario is plausible to be explained as emission coming from the hot, compressed, shocked gas in shock-ionization models. Although the model fitting is strongly sensitive to the chosen line-ratios, it argues for the presence of external and strong ionizing fields, such as the precursor field created by the shock or/and the AGN radiation field. In this paper, we show how AGN photoionization and shock-ionization triggered by jet-cloud interaction work together in these EELRs in order to explain the observed trends and line-ratio behaviours in a kinematically acceptable way.

Machiavelli in Modern Times: Political Theory in the Leadership of Stalin, Churchill and Roosevelt During the Second World War

description: Few theorists were as provocative as Niccoló Machiavelli. Famously, the Florentine
strategist crafted a detailed and controversial theory on how to lead a state as an executive in his
treatise, The Prince. While this work focused on principalities, Machiavelli’s principles can be
applied to many different forms of political leadership. This thesis offers a limited analysis of
Machiavelli’s writings, restricting the research to The Prince to make the project more feasible
and to eliminate potential contradictions in Machiavelli’s canon. In the scope of research,
though, this thesis investigates how readily The Prince’s theoretical model of leadership was
actually adopted by the main Allied leaders in World War II.

description: Analytical solutions to force-free electrodynamics around black holes are fundamental for building simple models of accretion disk and jet dynamics. We present a (nonexhaustive) classification of complex highest-weight solutions to the force-free equations in the near-horizon region of the extremal Kerr black hole. Several classes of real magnetically dominated or null solutions, either axisymmetric or nonaxisymmetric, are described which admit finite energy and angular momentum with respect to the asymptotically flat observer. Subtleties related to the velocity of light surface in the near-horizon region are discussed.

High-resolution spectroscopic studies of ultra metal-poor stars found in LAMOST survey

description: We report on the observations of two ultra metal-poor (UMP) stars with [Fe/H]~-4.0 including one new discovery. The two stars are studied in the on-going and quite efficient project to search for extremely metal-poor (EMP) stars with LAMOST and Subaru. Detailed abundances or upper limits of abundances have been derived for 15 elements from Li to Eu based on high-resolution spectra obtained with Subaru/HDS. The abundance patterns of both UMP stars are consistent with the "normal-population" among the low-metallicity stars. Both of the two program stars show carbon-enhancement without any excess of heavy neutron-capture elements, indicating that they belong to the subclass of CEMP-no stars, as is the case of most UMP stars previously studied. The [Sr/Ba] ratios of both CEMP-no UMP stars are above [Sr/Ba]~-0.4, suggesting the origin of the carbon-excess is not compatible with the mass transfer from an AGB companion where the s-process has operated. Lithium abundance is measured in the newly discovered UMP star LAMOST J125346.09+075343.1, making it the second UMP turnoff star with Li detection. The Li abundance of LAMOST J125346.09+075343.1 is slightly lower than the values obtained for less metal-poor stars with similar temperature, and provides a unique data point at [Fe/H]~-4.2 to support the "meltdown" of the Li Spite-plateau at extremely low metallicity. Comparison with the other two UMP and HMP (hyper metal-poor with [Fe/H]

description: We study the nonlinear and nonlocal Cauchy problem \[ \partial_{t}u+\mathcal{L}φ(u)=0 \quad\text{in }\mathbb{R}^{N}\times\mathbb{R}_+,\qquad u(\cdot,0)=u_0, \] where $\mathcal{L}$ is a Lévy-type nonlocal operator with a kernel having a singularity at the origin as that of the fractional Laplacian. The nonlinearity $φ$ is nondecreasing and continuous, and the initial datum $u_0$ is assumed to be in $L^1(\mathbb{R}^N)$. We prove existence and uniqueness of weak solutions. For a wide class of nonlinearities, including the porous media case, $φ(u)=|u|^{m-1}u$, $m>1$, these solutions turn out to be bounded and Hölder continuous for $t>0$. We also describe the large time behaviour when the nonlinearity resembles a power for $u\approx 0$ and the kernel associated to $\mathcal{L}$ is close at infinity to that of the fractional Laplacian.
Genetic and molecular mechanisms influencing stress-dependent chronic pain development

description: Chronic pain affects more Americans than cancer, heart disease, and diabetes combined and has a reported economic impact of more than 600 billion dollars annually. Despite these alarming statistics, the pathophysiology of chronic pain is not well understood, thus precluding the development of improved or novel therapeutics.

Toroidal vortices and the conglomeration of dust into rings in protoplanetary discs

Subjects: subject: Earth and Planetary Astrophysics (astro-ph.EP)

description: We identify a new hydrodynamical instability in protoplanetary discs that may arise due to variations in the dust-to-gas ratio and may lead to concentration of dust grains within a disc. The instability can arise due to dust settling, which produces a vertical compositional entropy gradient. The entropy gradient drives a baroclinic instability that is capable of creating toroidal gas vortices that gather dust into rings. Such dust rings are potentially observable via continuum emission of the dust or scattered light. Indeed, this instability may offer an explanation for the rings recently observed in the discs around the young stars HL Tau and TW Hya that does not rely on clearing by protoplanets. The instability may also have wider ramifications, potentially aiding dust agglomeration, altering the radial migration of larger planetesimals, and modifying angular momentum transport within a disc.
