description: We map the stellar structure of the Galactic thick disk and halo by applying color-magnitude diagram (CMD) fitting to photometric data from the SEGUE survey, allowing, for the first time, a comprehensive analysis of their structure at both high and low latitudes using uniform SDSS photometry. Incorporating photometry of all relevant stars simultaneously, CMD fitting bypasses the need to choose single tracer populations. Using old stellar populations of differing metallicities as templates we obtain a sparse 3D map of the stellar mass distribution at |Z|>1 kpc. Fitting a smooth Milky Way model comprising exponential thin and thick disks and an axisymmetric power-law halo allows us to constrain the structural parameters of the thick disk and halo. The thick-disk scale height and length are well constrained at 0.75+-0.07 kpc and 4.1+-0.4 kpc, respectively. We find a stellar halo flattening within ~25 kpc of c/a=0.88+-0.03 and a power-law index of 2.75+-0.07 (for 7

description: The possibility of reconstructing a spherically symmetric inhomogeneous Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi (LTB) model with $Λ$CDM observations has drawn a lot of attention. Recently, a LTB model having the same luminosity-distance and light-cone mass density as the $Λ$CDM model was reconstructed. We calculate the cosmic age at our position in this model, and get the age $t_{LTB}<11.7$Gyr in 2$σ$ confidence level from the Seven-Year WMAP observations. This result is inconsistent with some Milky Way observations.

description: Recently, Ji et al disproved the LU-LC conjecture and showed that the local unitary and local Clifford equivalence classes of the stabilizer states are not always the same. Despite the fact this settles the LU-LC conjecture, a sufficient condition for stabilizer states that violate the LU-LC conjecture is missing. In this paper, we investigate further the properties of stabilizer states with respect to local equivalence. Our first result shows that there exist infinitely many stabilizer states which violate the LU-LC conjecture. In particular, we show that for all numbers of qubits $n\geq 28$, there exist distance two stabilizer states which are counterexamples to the LU-LC conjecture. We prove that for all odd $n\geq 195$, there exist stabilizer states with distance greater than two which are LU equivalent but not LC equivalent. Two important classes of stabilizer states that are of great interest in quantum computation are the cluster states and stabilizer states of the surface codes. To date, the status of these states with respect to the LU-LC conjecture was not studied. We show that, under some minimal restrictions, both these classes of states preclude any counterexamples. In this context, we also show that the associated surface codes do not have any encoded non-Clifford transversal gates. We characterize the CSS surface code states in terms of a class of minor closed binary matroids. In addition to making connection with an important open problem in binary matroid theory, this characterization does in some cases provide an efficient test for CSS states that are not counterexamples.

Kinetic theory derivation of the hydro-dynamic equations for a fluid with internal states
Creators: name: Thomas, Michael Walter
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2012

description: Equations of change for the various hydrodynamic densities are derived for a dilute gas with degenerate internal states. To obtain a consistent set of hydrodynamic equations it is necessary to expand the collision term of the usual Waldmann-Snider Boltzmann equation (W-S equation) in position gradients of the distribution function [formula omitted]. In particular, the extension of the W-S equation to terms "linear" in the position gradients of [formula omitted] yields the correct form for the equation of change for the internal angular momentum density. Specifically, the production term in this equation of change is t he antisymmetric part of the pressure tensor, which is in accord with a hydrodynamic derivation. In addition, equations of change for the mass density, linear momentum density, and total energy density are also obtained. These results are shown to be similar to equations of change derived via a density-operator technique. Unfortunately, this " linear" extension of the W-S equation does not give a closed set of equations of change. However, a consistent set of equations is obtained if a restriction is placed on the form of the extended W-S equation.

description: In this work we formulate a generalized theoretical model to describe the nonlinear dynamics observed in combined frequency-amplitude modulators whose characteristic parameters exhibit a nonlinear dependence on the input modulating signal. The derived analytical solution may give a satisfactory explanation of recent laboratory observations on magnetic spin-transfer oscillators and fully agrees with results of micromagnetic calculations. Since the theory has been developed independently of the mechanism causing the nonlinearities, it may encompass the description of modulation processes of any physical nature, a promising feature for potential applications in the field of communication systems.

description: The collective total syntheses of nine natural phenylethanoid glycosides (PhEGs) together with proposed Incanoside B in a divergent mode were described. By using a core disaccharide as common intermediate, our developed interrupted Pummerer reaction mediated (IPRm) glycosylations adopting latent-active strategy enables the efficient, concise and divergent syntheses of these bioactive PhEGs. Among them, five natural PhEGs, Darendoside B (1), Cistanoside G (3), Decaffeoyl acteoside (4), Kankanoside F (5) and 4′′′-epi-Leonoside F (7) were the first time being synthesized. According to the synthesis of 4′′′-epi-Leonoside F (7), we also elucidated the real structure of carbohydrate component of the PhEG isolated from Rehmannia glutinosa which was misled as “Leonoside F”.

description: The recently developed void expansion method (VEM) allows for an efficient generation of porous packings of spherical particles over a wide range of volume fractions. The method is based on a random placement of the structural particles under addition of much smaller "void-particles" whose radii are repeatedly increased during the void expansion. Thereby, they rearrange the structural particles until formation of a dense particle packing and introduce local heterogeneities in the structure. In this paper, microstructures with volume fractions between 0.4 and 0.6 produced by VEM are analyzed with respect to their degree of heterogeneity (DOH). In particular, the influence of the void- to structural particle number ratio, which constitutes a principal VEM-parameter, on the DOH is studied. The DOH is quantified using the pore size distribution, the Voronoi volume distribution and the density-fluctuation method in conjunction with fit functions or integral measures. This analysis has revealed that for volume fractions between 0.4 and 0.55 the void-particle number allows for a quasi-continuous adjustment of the DOH. Additionally, the DOH-range of VEM-generated microstructures with a volume fraction of 0.4 is compared to the range covered by microstructures generated using previous Brownian dynamics simulations, which represent the structure of coagulated colloidal suspensions. Both sets of microstructures cover similarly broad and overlapping DOH-ranges, which allows concluding that VEM is an efficient method to stochastically reproduce colloidal microstructures with varying DOH.

description: Joint measurements of multiple qubits have been shown to open new possibilities for quantum information processing. Here, we present an approach based on homodyne detection to realize such measurements in the dispersive regime of cavity/circuit QED. By changing details of the measurement, the readout can be tuned from extracting only single-qubit to only multi-qubit properties. We obtain a reduced stochastic master equation describing this measurement and its effect on the qubits. As an example, we present results showing parity measurements of two qubits. In this situation, measurement of an initially unentangled state can yield with near unit probability a state of significant concurrence.

Fractal geometry of Ising magnetic patterns: signatures of criticality and diffusive dynamics

description: We investigate the geometric properties displayed by the magnetic patterns developing on a two-dimensional Ising system, when a diffusive thermal dynamics is adopted. Such a dynamics is generated by a random walker which diffuses throughout the sites of the lattice, updating the relevant spins. Since the walker is biased towards borders between clusters, the border-sites are more likely to be updated with respect to a non-diffusive dynamics and therefore, we expect the spin configurations to be affected. In particular, by means of the box-counting technique, we measure the fractal dimension of magnetic patterns emerging on the lattice, as the temperature is varied. Interestingly, our results provide a geometric signature of the phase transition and they also highlight some non-trivial, quantitative differences between the behaviors pertaining to the diffusive and non-diffusive dynamics.
Analysis of some physical and economic criteria for the determination of rotations for British Columbia forests
Creators: name: Richmond, A. E.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: In I968 the B.C. Forest Service provided growth and yield data in the form of nearly seven hundred volume/age curves. These were summarized quantitatively and sorted by electronic computer. Summaries were used for study of the criteria determining rotations in British Columbia. At the same time an assessment of these curves for other uses in forest land management was made. The curve summaries illustrated the need to consider differences in region,species, or growth type, site class and utilization standards. It was shown that a direct, negative correlation exists between rotation length and site index. This was done using the physical criterion which determines the rotation age at the culmination of mean annual increment in cubic foot volume. Because simple volume over age curves do not provide some important data such as numbers of trees per acre and average stand diameter, the study showed how several rough estimates of these would be derived theoretically. No positive conclusions could be drawn. The exercise did show, though, that the use of actual data describing stand density for fully stocked stands would benefit the forest land manager to a remarkable degree. The next step involved an assessment of the available financial alternatives to physical rotation determination, then compared them with approaches employed by two representative agencies in British Columbia. The possibility of using average stand diameter as a means of approximating the financial rotation was indicated. B.C. Forest Service volume/age curves now are useful as a tool of forest land management. They could be improved by the provision of information to define growth behaviour at full stocking, given various levels of stand density. Another conclusion was that the forest manager using the optimum accounting rate of return (single year) investment criterion and the economist using time preference criteria both have the same objective, namely the most efficient use of capital. This objective is more likely to be achieved by the manager in a series of Intermediate steps. At the same time the economist's time preference may span a single rotation. It was recommended that the B.C. Forest Service continue to develop forecasts of average stand diameter with their yield predictions as a means of introducing the financial implications of a chosen rotation.

description: The Kaczmarz method is an iterative algorithm for solving systems of linear equations Ax=b. Theoretical convergence rates for this algorithm were largely unknown until recently when work was done on a randomized version of the algorithm. It was proved that for overdetermined systems, the randomized Kaczmarz method converges with expected exponential rate, independent of the number of equations in the system. Here we analyze the case where the system Ax=b is corrupted by noise, so we consider the system where Ax is approximately b + r where r is an arbitrary error vector. We prove that in this noisy version, the randomized method reaches an error threshold dependent on the matrix A with the same rate as in the error-free case. We provide examples showing our results are sharp in the general context.

In particular, we determine the divisibility properties of the standard line bundles over these moduli spaces and we calculate the second integral cohomology group of the level $L$ subgroup of the mapping class group (in a previous paper, the author determined this rationally). This entails calculating the abelianization of the level $L$ subgroup of the mapping class group, generalizing previous results of Perron, Sato, and the author. Finally, along the way we calculate the first homology group of the mod $L$ symplectic group with coefficients in the adjoint representation.

A fundamental property is that it has non-commuting position coordinates. Other and generalized non-commutative models are also discussed. Minimal as well as anomalous coupling to an external electromagnetic field is presented. Supersymmetric extension is also considered. Exotic Galilean symmetry is also found in Moyal field theory. Similar equations arise for a semiclassical Bloch electron, used to explain the anomalous/spin/optical Hall effects.

description: Abstract:

In modern educational institutions, the teaching staff have a wide variety of tasks to be carried out spanning areas of teaching, mentoring, and student engagement, training for self and for others, curriculum design and so on. However, proving one’s acumen in research performance and productivity stands out as the most sorts after indicator of a faculty’s job profile. This is especially true in case of engineering institutes as engineering and steering innovation in the society go hand in hand. While research productivity of faculty is influenced by several factors such as the leadership in institute, environment, research culture, facilities available for research to be carried out etc, the role of intrinsic motivation is often unnoticed and vouched for in academic literature. The present study thus tries to examine the impact of intrinsic motivation measured in terms of purpose, mastery and autonomy on research performance of teaching staff of engineering institutes. The study examined the perspectives of 381 faculty spanning verticals of four branches in engineering. The mix of several designations viz assistant professor, associate professor, professor and departmental heads were considered for data collection via questionnaire. Factor analysis and regression techniques were adopted to analyze the data further. The results reveal a significant influence of intrinsic motivation measures namely autonomy, mastery and purpose on research productivity and performance of faculty members.

GENETICS OF LEFT VENTRICULAR HYPERTROPHY
Creators: name: RIVERA, NATALIA V
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2012

description: High blood pressure makes the heart work harder and promotes enlargement of the left ventricle, left ventricular hypertrophy (LVH), which is an important risk factor for cardiovascular disease and death. LVH is characterized for the most part by two different sets of observable characteristics (genetic phenotypes): an enlarged left ventricle (1) due to increasing wall thickness and (2) due to increasing wall dilation. The molecular and pathological mechanisms by which either phenotype occurs is unknown. We do know, however, that both phenotypic variations of LVH are determined by quantitative and qualitive changes in the genetic expression of cardiac cells that result in structural alterations in the muscular tissue that affect the blood flow within the heart. Genetics, the study of heredity and the variation of inherited characteristics, therefore play a prominent role in the development of LVH. A genome-wide association (GWA) study to investigate the genetics of LVH and left ventricular mass index (LVMI) in a cross-sectional-study of 1,212 subjects of white European ancestry and 2.5 million nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) yielded a total of 19 genome-wide significant (P < 5x10-7) variants. The GWA revealed no genome-wide significant variants; however, at suggestive P value < 1x10-5 were found two potentially susceptible regions of 97.6 Kb in the SYT14 gene and 3.4 kb in the GAS1 gene for association with LVMI. Nineteen (19) susceptible regions harboring common variants associated with LVH and 2 potential regions associated with LVMI were found. Further functional genetic studies (relating to a variable quantity whose value depends on one or more other variables) are required to characterize the biological relevance of these findings to high blood pressure associated with enlargement of the left ventricle.

description: This work addresses computing techniques for dose calculations in treatment planning with proton and ion beams, based on an efficient kernel-convolution method referred to as grid-dose spreading (GDS) and accurate heterogeneity-correction method referred to as Gaussian beam splitting. The original GDS algorithm suffered from distortion of dose distribution for beams tilted with respect to the dose-grid axes. Use of intermediate grids normal to the beam field has solved the beam-tilting distortion. Interplay of arrangement between beams and grids was found as another intrinsic source of artifact. Inclusion of rectangular-kernel convolution in beam transport, to share the beam contribution among the nearest grids in a regulatory manner, has solved the interplay problem. This algorithmic framework was applied to a tilted proton pencil beam and a broad carbon-ion beam. In these cases, while the elementary pencil beams individually split into several tens, the calculation time increased only by several times with the GDS algorithm. The GDS and beam-splitting methods will complementarily enable accurate and efficient dose calculations for radiotherapy with protons and ions.
Comparison of the ice skating starting styles used in ice hockey
Creators: name: Jones, Brian Edgar
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The purpose of this study was to determine the difference between the front style and the side style of starting in ice hockey with regards to time, speed, and acceleration. Sixteen players of the Varsity and Junior Varsity Ice Hockey Teams at the University of British Columbia volunteered as subjects. Age, height, weight, years of skating experience and preferred style of starting were obtained for all subjects. Using stopwatches, the time for the first thirty feet and the total sixty feet was recorded for ten trials for each style of starting for all subjects. The subjects were tested on only one starting style per session -ten trials- and were randomly assigned to the style used in the first session. The speed and acceleration were calculated for the first thirty feet and the total sixty feet and the time, speed, and acceleration were calculated for the second thirty feet. T-ratio's were computed to test the significance of the difference between the group means for time, speed, and acceleration for the first thirty feet, the second thirty feet, and the total sixty feet. Significant t-ratio's were found favouring the front starting style for time, speed, and acceleration for the first thirty feet and the total sixty feet.

description: This work presents a single molecular motor driven by the current in an STM. Its chiral functional group is supposed to perform a rotation in a preferred direction, proven by Binomial tests to be statistically significant. The rotation is proposedly driven by the chiral-induced spin selectivity effect (CISS). However, the studies of the rotation on the dependence on the lateral tip position, voltage and current indicate that he CISS is unlikely to cause the preferred rotation direction.

description: We find new black 3-brane solutions describing the "conifold gauge theory" at nonzero temperature and baryonic chemical potential. Of particular interest is the low-temperature limit where we find a new kind of weakly curved near-horizon geometry; it is a warped product AdS_2 x R^3 x T^{1,1} with warp factors that are powers of the logarithm of the AdS radius. Thus, our solution encodes a new type of emergent quantum near-criticality. We carry out some stability checks for our solutions. We also set up a consistent ansatz for baryonic black 2-branes of M-theory that are asymptotic to AdS_4 x Q^{1,1,1}.

Open Clusters IC 4665 and Cr 359 and a Probable Birthplace of the Pulsar PSR B1929+10

description: Based on the epicyclic approximation, we have simulated the motion of the young open star clusters IC 4665 and Collinder 359. The separation between the cluster centers is shown to have been minimal 7 Myr ago, 36 pc. We have established a close evolutionary connection between IC 4665 and the Scorpius-Centaurus association -- the separation between the centers of these structures was $\approx200$ pc 15 Myr ago. In addition, the center of IC 4665 at this time was near two well-known regions of coronal gas: the Local Bubble and the North Polar Spur. The star HIP 86768 is shown to be one of the candidates for a binary (in the past) with the pulsar PSR B1929+10. At the model radial velocity of the pulsar $V_r= 2\pm50$ km s$^{-1}$, a close encounter of this pair occurs in the vicinity of IC 4665 at a time of -1.1 Myr. At the same time, using currently available data for the pulsar B1929+10 at its model radial velocity $V_r=200\pm50$ km s$^{-1}$, we show that the hypothesis of Hoogerwerf et al. (2001) about the breakup of the $ζ$Oph--B1929+10 binary in the vicinity of Upper Scorpius (US) about 0.9 Myr ago is more plausible.

description: We study the dynamic sensitivity of an atomic ensemble dressed by a single-mode cavity field (called a photon-dressed atomic ensemble), which is described by the Dicke model near the quantum critical point. It is shown that when an extra atom in a pure initial state passes through the cavity, the photon-dressed atomic ensemble will experience a quantum phase transition, showing an explicit sudden change in its dynamics characterized by the Loschmidt echo of this quantum critical system. With such dynamic sensitivity, the Dicke model can resemble to the cloud chamber for detecting a flying particle by the enhanced trajectory due to the classical phase transition.

Generalized Killing-Yano equations in D=5 gauged supergravity

description: We propose a generalization of the (conformal) Killing-Yano equations relevant to D=5 minimal gauged supergravity. The generalization stems from the fact that the dual of the Maxwell flux, the 3-form *F, couples naturally to particles in the background as a `torsion'. Killing-Yano tensors in the presence of torsion preserve most of the properties of the standard Killing-Yano tensors, exploited recently for the higher-dimensional rotating black holes of vacuum gravity with cosmological constant. In particular, the generalized closed conformal Killing-Yano 2-form gives rise to the tower of generalized closed conformal Killing-Yano tensors of increasing rank which in turn generate the tower of Killing tensors. An example of a generalized Killing-Yano tensor is found for the Chong-Cvetic-Lu-Pope black hole spacetime [hepth/0506029]. Such a tensor stands behind the separability of the Hamilton-Jacobi, Klein-Gordon, and Dirac equations in this background.

description: In conventional superconductors, a gap exists in the energy absorption spectrum only below the transition temperature (Tc), corresponding to the energy price to pay for breaking a Cooper pair of electrons. In high-Tc cuprate superconductors above Tc, an energy gap called the pseudogap exists, and is controversially attributed either to pre-formed superconducting pairs, which would exhibit particle-hole symmetry, or to competing phases which would typically break it. Scanning tunnelling microscopy (STM) studies suggest that the pseudogap stems from lattice translational symmetry breaking and is associated with a different characteristic spectrum for adding or removing electrons (particle-hole asymmetry). However, no signature of either spatial or energy symmetry breaking of the pseudogap has previously been observed by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). Here we report ARPES data from Bi2201 which reveals both particle-hole symmetry breaking and dramatic spectral broadening indicative of spatial symmetry breaking without long range order, upon crossing through T* into the pseudogap state. This symmetry breaking is found in the dominant region of the momentum space for the pseudogap, around the so-called anti-node near the Brillouin zone boundary. Our finding supports the STM conclusion that the pseudogap state is a broken-symmetry state that is distinct from homogeneous superconductivity.

description: We propose the bosonic part of an action that defines M-theory. It possesses manifest SO(1, 10) symmetry and constructed based on the Lorentzian 3-algebra associated with U(N) Lie algebra. From our action, we derive the bosonic sector of BFSS matrix theory and IIB matrix model in the naive large N limit by taking appropriate vacua. We also discuss an interaction with fermions.
