description: We numerically investigate the radial dependence of the velocity and temperature fluctuations and of the time-averaged heat flux $\bar{j}(r)$ in a cylindrical Rayleigh-Bénard cell with aspect ratio Γ=1 for Rayleigh numbers Ra between $2 \times 10^6$ and $2\times 10^{9}$ at a fixed Prandtl number Pr = 5.2. The numerical results reveal that the heat flux close to the sidewall is larger than in the center and that, just as the global heat transport, it has an effective power law dependence on the Rayleigh number, $\bar{j}(r)\propto Ra^{γ_j(r)}$. The scaling exponent $γ_j(r)$ decreases monotonically from 0.43 near the axis ($r \approx 0$) to 0.29 close to the side walls ($r \approx D/2$). The effective exponents near the axis and the side wall agree well with the measurements of Shang et al. (Phys.\ Rev.\ Lett.\ \textbf{100}, 244503, 2008) and the predictions of Grossmann and Lohse (Phys.\ Fluids \textbf{16}, 1070, 2004). Extrapolating our results to large Rayleigh number would imply a crossover at $Ra\approx 10^{15}$, where the heat flux near the axis would begin to dominate. In addition, we find that the local heat flux is more than twice as high at the location where warm or cold plumes go up or down, than in the plume depleted regions.

In diesem Bericht wird untersucht, inwiefern in Deutschland Unterschiede in der gesundheitlichen Situation nach Migrationshintergrund bestehen. Konkret steht dabei die körperliche und psychische Gesundheit von Menschen mit Fluchterfahrung im Vordergrund und wird mit Personen mit und ohne Migrationshintergrund verglichen. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die körperliche Gesundheit von Geflüchteten, die seit 2013 in Deutschland angekommen sind, überdurchschnittlich ist, was teilweise mit der jüngeren Altersstruktur zusammenhängen kann. Außerdem ist die psychische Gesundheit der Geflüchteten, insbesondere bei Personen, die älter als 45 Jahre sind, schlechter als im Bevölkerungsdurchschnitt. Um eine gelingende Integration zu ermöglichen, sind weitere Anstrengungen zur psychischen Unterstützung von Geflüchteten notwendig

Order and Chaos in a Three-dimensional Binary System of Interacting Galaxies

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)

description: In the present article, we present a galactic gravitational model of three degrees of freedom, in order to investigate and reveal the behavior of orbits in a binary quasar system. The two quasars are hosted in a pair of interacting disk galaxies. We study in detail the regular or chaotic character of motion, in two different cases: the time independent model in both 2D and 3D dynamical systems and the evolving 3D model. Our numerical calculations, indicate that a large fraction of orbits in the 2D system are chaotic in the time independent case. A careful analysis suggest that several Lindblad resonances are also responsible for the chaotic motion of stars in both hosts galaxies. In the time dependent system, we follow the evolution of 3D orbits in our dynamical model, as the two interacting host galaxies develop dense and massive quasars in their cores, by mass transportation from the disks to their nuclei. In this interesting case, there are orbits that change their orbital character from regular to chaotic and vise versa and also orbits that maintain their character during the galactic evolution. These results strongly indicate that the ordered or chaotic nature of 3D orbits depends, not only in the galactic interaction but also in the presence of the quasars in the galactic cores of the host galaxies. The outcomes derived from our dynamical model are compared with observational data. Some theoretical arguments to support the numerically derived outcomes are presented, both in 2D and 3D systems, while a comparison with similar earlier work is also made.

10GHz sky survey to probe inflation with CMB polarization
Creators: name: Tanimura, Hideki
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: The fluctuations in the cosmic microwave background(CMB) contain a lot of information on the history and composition of our universe. In particular, the rich detail about our early universe is included in the angular power spectra of the CMB fluctuations, which constrains the cosmological parameters in current models of the universe. The latest cosmological data strongly support an inflationary Lambda CDM cosmology with a minimal six parameters to describe our universe. The next challenge in cosmology is to probe the physics of the inflationary period by looking for the signature of primordial gravitational waves in the polarized CMB. CMB polarization was generated at last scattering by scalar and tensor perturbations in the primordial fluid. The tensor perturbations are produced by the stretching of space-time by gravitational wave fluctuations, while scalar perturbations are produced by density fluctuations in the primordial fluid. The ratio of the tensor to scalar perturbation amplitude, r, is a key tracer of the physics of the inflationary epoch, which is deeply connected to the energy scale of inflation in a standard inflationary model. A local quadrupole anisotropy in the radiation field at the time of decoupling causes the linear polarization in CMB through Thomson scattering by electrons. The CMB polarization can be decomposed into two rotationally invariant quantities, called E and B. The CMB B-mode is a direct tracer of the tensor perturbations caused by gravitational waves in the inflationary period of the universe. Thus, the detection of B-mode has currently been dubbed the ''smoking gun'' of inflation. However, the galactic foreground emissions also have much stronger E- and B-modes polarization. We intend to produce half-sky maps of total intensity and linear polarization at 10 GHz. This data would probe galactic synchrotron emission and also can help constrain the so-called anomalous emission. Therefore, the maps can be used with other surveys such as WMAP and Planck to subtract galactic foreground emissions and obtain more precise CMB data. In addition, the data will give us information about galactic emission components such as synchrotron, free-free, thermal dust and anomalous emission in the microwave range.

Non-Markovian Decoherent Quantum Walks

name: Zhang, Yongsheng
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Quantum walk acts obviously different from its classical counterpart, but decoherence will lessen and close the gap between them. To understand this process, it is necessary to investigate the evolution of quantum walk under different situation of decoherence. In this article, we study a non-Markovian decoherent quantum walk on a line. In the short time regime, the behavior of the walk deviates from both idea quantum walks and classical random walks. The position variance as a measure of quantum walk starts oscillating from the first several steps and tends to be linear on time and showing a diffusive spread in the long time limit, which is caused by the non-Markovian dephasing affecting on quantum correlations between quantum walker and his coin. We also study both quantum discord and measurement-induced disturbance as measures of quantum correlations and observe that both of them oscillate in the short time regime and tend to be zero in the long time limit. Therefore quantum walk with non-Markovian decoherence tends to diffusive spreading behavior in the long time limit, while in the short time regime it oscillates between a ballistic and diffusive spreading behavior, and the quantum correlation collapses and revivals due to the memory effect.

description: Αντλώντας από την υπάρχουσα βιβλιογραφία για τον λαϊκισμό, η παρούσα εργασία στοχεύει στην κατανόηση του πώς οι λαϊκιστές στην εξουσία χρησιμοποιούν τη θρησκεία και τους σχετικούς κρατικούς πόρους για να δημιουργήσουν πολυδιάστατα θρησκευτικά λαϊκιστικά δυαδικά, και εστιάζει στο παράδειγμα της Τουρκίας ως μελέτης περίπτωσης. Υποστηρίζεται ότι με την εργαλειοποίηση της Diyanet (Διεύθυνση Θρησκευτικών Υποθέσεων), το υπάρχον καθεστώς οικοδομεί ενεργά την ταυτότητα του «λαού» και της «ελίτ», όσο και των «εχθρών» του λαού γενικότερα, μέσω των εβδομαδιαίων κηρυγμάτων της Παρασκευής. Επομένως, εξετάζοντας τη χρήση της «Diyanet» από τους Τούρκους λαϊκιστές, αυτή η εργασία θα συμβάλει στην υπάρχουσα βιβλιογραφία για την φύση της σχέσης μεταξύ θρησκείας και λαϊκισμού. Αναλύοντας τα εβδομαδιαία κηρύγματα της Παρασκευής της «Diyanet» των τελευταίων δύο χρόνων, υπό το πρίσμα της θεωρίας του λόγου των Ernesto Laclau και της Chantal Mouffe, καταδεικνύεται πώς διαφορετικές πτυχές του λαϊκισμού - οι οριζόντιες, κάθετες και πολιτισμικές του διαστάσεις - έχουν ενσωματωθεί σε αυτά
description: Drawing on the existing literature on populism, this paper aims to understand how populists in power use religion and related state resources to create multidimensional religious populist binaries, and focuses on the example of Turkey as a case study. It is argued that by instrumentalizing the “Diyanet” (Directorate of Religious Affairs), the existing regime is actively constructing the identity of the 'people' and the 'elite', as well as the 'enemies' of the people in general, through its weekly Friday sermons. Therefore, by examining Turkish populists' use of Diyanet, this paper will contribute to the existing literature on the nature of the relationship between religion and populism. By analyzing “Diyanet's” weekly Friday sermons of the last two years in the light of Ernesto Laclau and Chantal Mouffe's discourse theory, it demonstrates how different aspects of populism - its horizontal, vertical and cultural dimensions - have been embedded in them

Alternatively a room temperature bore insert can be used for experiments in the field centre under atmospheric conditions. Some advantages of this system include very low background scattering due to the small amount of material in the beam path, rapid cooldown, and fast field ramping. Access is available in a ~10-11 degree cone around the field direction on both sides.

description: We investigate the effect of weak rotation on the large-scale circulation (LSC) of turbulent Rayleigh-Bénard convection, using the theory for cessations in a low-dimensional stochastic model of the flow previously studied. We determine the cessation frequency of the LSC as a function of rotation, and calculate the statistics of the amplitude and azimuthal velocity fluctuations of the LSC as a function of the rotation rate for different Rayleigh numbers. Furthermore, we show that the tails of the reorientation probability distribution function remain unchanged for rotating systems, while the distribution of the LSC amplitude and correspondingly the cessation frequency are strongly affected by rotation. Our results are in close agreement with experimental observations.

description: In this work we investigate the behavior of the microcanonical and canonical averages of the two-dimensional Ising model during the Wang-Landau simulation. The simulations were carried out using conventional Wang-Landau sampling and the $1/t$ scheme. Our findings reveal that the microcanonical average should not be accumulated during the initial modification factors \textit{f} and outline a criterion to define this limit. We show that updating the density of states only after every $L^2$ spin-flip trials leads to a much better precision. We present a mechanism to determine for the given model up to what final modification factor the simulations should be carried out. Altogether these small adjustments lead to an improved procedure for simulations with much more reliable results. We compare our results with $1/t$ simulations. We also present an application of the procedure to a self-avoiding homopolymer.

Dieser Bericht untersucht als zweiter Teil des aktuellen DIW Managerinnen-Barometers, ob ein Zusammenhang zwischen der Entwicklung des Frauenanteils in Aufsichtsräten und der Entwicklung des Frauenanteils in Vorständen besteht. Das Kernergebnis: Eine entsprechende Beziehung ist erkennbar und die Hinweise, dass die Geschlechterquote für Aufsichtsräte die Präsenz von Frauen in Vorständen positiv beeinflusst, verdichten sich. Ein kausaler Zusammenhang ist aber noch nicht nachweisbar. Die Antworten aus Interviews mit insgesamt 60 Aufsichtsrätinnen und Aufsichtsräten belegen, dass Aufsichtsratsmitglieder vielfältige Möglichkeiten haben, die Besetzung von Vorstandsposten zu beeinflussen und damit auf mehr Frauen in den Chefetagen hinzuwirken. Vielerorts werden diese Möglichkeiten aber (noch) nicht vollends ausgeschöpft. Weiterer politischer und gesellschaftlicher Druck und neue Formen der Arbeitsorganisation könnten helfen, den Anteil von Frauen in Führungspositionen nachhaltig zu erhöhen.

title: Valorisation of melon seed (Cucumis melo L.)
Creators: name: Zhang, Guoqiang
Publisher: name: University of Reading
Year: 2024

description: Melon seeds (Cucumis melo L.), accounting for 5% - 10% of the total melon weight, are regarded as a low value by-product within the melon supply chain, and are often disposed as a waste. However, this by-product holds potential as a source of nutritionally valuable compounds for food applications. To date, there is still insufficient information about valorisation strategies of melon seeds. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess melon seed potential value and develop valorisation strategies for food applications. Compositional analysis showed that melon seed contains considerable levels of protein (28.4 - 30.4%, w/w), oil (43.5 - 48.3%, w/w), fibre (15.9 - 16.6%, w/w), as well as minerals, especially potassium (988.3 - 1076.6 mg/100 g DW) and magnesium (514.3 - 541.0 mg/100 g DW). Investigating and developing processing technologies are very important as it can reduce food waste and could result to products of good nutritional quality, suitable for human consumption. Melon seeds were processed via three processing methods namely, soaking, boiling, and roasting, to assess its effect on melon seeds nutritional quality. Soaking and boiling methods showed positive effect on reducing tannins content (13% - 20%, 10% - 26%, respectively), whereas roasting showed adverse effects, including increase in tannins (40% - 114%) and phytic acid content (3% - 5%), and decrease in linoleic acid content (approximately 8%). Melon seed oil extraction was investigated using solvent extraction (SE), cold-pressed extraction (CPE), and aqueous enzymatic extraction (AEE) methods. Melon seed oil was identified as a rich source of linoleic acid (C18:2; 53.6% - 70.8%), β-sitosterol (119.5 – 291.9 mg/100 g), and squalene (101.1 - 164.7 mg/100 g). It was seen that the choice of oil extraction technology influenced melon seed oil quality; oil obtained by aqueous enzymatic extraction (AEE) exhibited higher tocopherol content and better oxidative stability as compared to SE and CPE. After oil extraction, the defatted melon seed, as a major by-product of melon seed oil extraction (often referred to as meal/residue), contained considerable as amounts of protein (34.1% w/w) and fibre (35.1% w/w). Subsequently, defatted melon seed was used as ingredient in bread formulations as partial substitute to wheat flour. The addition of defatted melon seed reduced dough strength, made dough softer and weaker, reduced bread specific volume and increased bread hardness. This could be attributed to gluten dilution and increased fibre content which induces greater disruption of the gluten network. In contrast, from a nutritional point, defatted melon seed addition at 10% (w/w) comprehensively improved the nutritional quality of bread that can be labelled as ‘source of fibre’ and could contribute to an increased dietary intake in fibre.

description: Low-lying collective excited states of ¹⁹⁴Pt have been studied via the ¹²C(¹⁹⁴Pt,¹⁹⁴Pt*) projectile Coulomb excitation reaction at 85% of the Coulomb barrier (850 MeV) using the Gammasphere Ge-detector array at Argonne National Laboratory. Absolute E2 transition strengths have been obtained from the Coulex cross sections that were deduced from the relative γ-ray yields. They are discussed with respect to the structure suggested by the O(6) symmetry of the Interacting Boson Model.

description: We study the properties of gas inside and around galaxy haloes as a function of radius and halo mass, focussing mostly on z=2, but also showing some results for z=0. For this purpose, we use a suite of large cosmological, hydrodynamical simulations from the OverWhelmingly Large Simulations project. The properties of cold- and hot-mode gas, which we separate depending on whether the temperature has been higher than 10^5.5 K while it was extragalactic, are clearly distinguishable in the outer parts of massive haloes (virial temperatures >> 10^5 K. The differences between cold- and hot-mode gas resemble those between inflowing and outflowing gas. The cold-mode gas is mostly confined to clumpy filaments that are approximately in pressure equilibrium with the diffuse, hot-mode gas. Besides being colder and denser, cold-mode gas typically has a much lower metallicity and is much more likely to be infalling. However, the spread in the properties of the gas is large, even for a given mode and a fixed radius and halo mass, which makes it impossible to make strong statements about individual gas clouds. Metal-line cooling causes a strong cooling flow near the central galaxy, which makes it hard to distinguish gas accreted through the cold and hot modes in the inner halo. Stronger feedback results in larger outflow velocities and pushes hot-mode gas to larger radii. The gas properties evolve as expected from virial arguments, which can also account for the dependence of many gas properties on halo mass. We argue that cold streams penetrating hot haloes are observable as high-column density HI Lyman-alpha absorption systems in sightlines near massive foreground galaxies.

description: Die Frauenanteile in den Vorständen großer Unternehmen in Deutschland sind im vergangenen Jahr etwas stärker gestiegen als in den Jahren zuvor. Die 200 umsatzstärksten Unternehmen knackten erstmals die Zehn-Prozent-Marke: 14 Vorstandsposten mehr als noch im Jahr zuvor – nämlich 94 von 907 – hatten Frauen inne. Auch bei den größten börsennotierten und bei den Unternehmen, an denen der Bund beteiligt ist, war die Entwicklung im Vorstand etwas dynamischer – ebenso bei Banken und Versicherungen. Gleichwohl kann noch keine Rede davon sein, dass in sämtlichen Chefetagen das Umdenken begonnen hätte. Bei genauerem Hinsehen vollzieht sich die Entwicklung in den Chefetagen – zumal bei Betrachtung mehrjähriger Zeiträume – nach wie vor in Trippelschritten. Hinzu kommt: In den Aufsichtsräten ging es langsamer voran als in den Jahren zuvor, bei Banken und Versicherungen sank der Frauenanteil sogar. Der gesellschaftliche und politische Druck, mehr Frauen in Führungspositionen zu bringen, könnte sich schon bald noch verstärken. In eigenem Interesse, auch mit Blick auf ihren Fachkräftebedarf in der Zukunft, sollten die Unternehmen ihre Anstrengungen dringend erhöhen.

description: Κοινό χαρακτηριστικό των ατόμων που ασχολούνται με το σέρφινγκ είναι ο χρόνος και η ενέργεια που αφιερώνουν σε ταξίδια με σκοπό την αναζήτηση των ιδανικών για αυτούς κυμάτων και στην αναζήτηση νέων τοποθεσιών για σέρφινγκ. Σκοπός της παρούσας εργασίας είναι η διερεύνηση της αντίληψης της βιωσιμότητας ως προς τα κίνητρα και της επιλογής προορισμού ως προς την εμπλοκή των σέρφερς. Η διερεύνηση των μεταβλητών της έρευνας πραγματοποιείται σε δείγμα 152 συμμετεχόντων που ασχολούνται με το σέρφινγκ, μέσω ηλεκτρονικού ερωτηματολογίου. Συγκεκριμένα, διερευνώνται οι απόψεις των σέρφερς πάνω σε περιβαλλοντικά ζητήματα, χρησιμοποιώντας την κλίμακα New Environmental Paradigm (NEP). Τα αποτελέσματα της έρευνας τόνισαν την πολύπλοκη σχέση των κινήτρων με την αντίληψη της βιωσιμότητας, με το κίνητρο του ενθουσιασμού να ξεχωρίζει από υπόλοιπες τις διαστάσεις και καθώς δεν επηρεάζεται από περιβαλλοντική ευαισθητοποίηση. Επιπλέον, τα ευρήματα υπογραμμίζουν ότι η εμπλοκή με το σέρφινγκ βασίζεται κυρίως στα χαρακτηριστικά και στους τύπους των κυμάτων, παρά στη πρόσβαση και στις υποδομές οι οποίες λειτουργούν υποστηρικτά στην ενίσχυση της εμπειρίας με το σέρφινγκ. Τέλος, τα αποτελέσματα επιβεβαιώνουν ότι απαιτείται μία συνολική προσέγγιση των κινήτρων και συνδυαστική διαχείριση των χαρακτηριστικών μίας τοποθεσίας με τη προσβασιμότητα και τις υπάρχουσες υποδομές ώστε να δημιουργηθούν ελκυστικές τουριστικές τοποθεσίες σέρφινγκ.
description: A common characteristic of people involved in surfing is the time and energy spent traveling in search of the perfect wave and new surfing locations. This study aims to investigate the perception of sustainability in terms of motivation and destination choice as it relates to surfers' involvement. The investigation of the research variables is conducted on a sample of 152 participants involved in surfing through an online questionnaire. Specifically, surfers' views on environmental issues are explored using the New Environmental Paradigm (NEP) scale. The results of the survey highlighted the complex relationship between motivation and sustainability perception, with the motivation of enthusiasm standing out from other dimensions as it is not influenced by environmental awareness. Furthermore, the findings highlight that engagement with surfing is mainly based on the characteristics and types of waves, rather than access and infrastructure which function supportively in enhancing the surfing experience. Finally, the results confirm that a comprehensive approach to incentives and combined management of a location's characteristics with accessibility and existing infrastructure is required to create attractive surfing tourism locations.

Development of a hypoxia activated prodrug for the selective inhibition of DNA-dependent protein kinase
Creators: name: Cran, Jordan Darice
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2013

description: The presence of tumour hypoxia, regions of low levels of oxygen, is a distinct and exploitable feature of the solid tumour microenvironment. While its presence is generally accepted as a negative prognostic indicator, hypoxia is a relatively unique feature to solid tumours and can therefore be exploited as a means to specifically target cancer cells in this setting. Prodrugs can be designed to harness the reductive environment found within hypoxic cells, by releasing an active drug following reduction. This work continues the development of a prodrug, Hapi3, which under hypoxic conditions releases an inhibitor of the DNA-dependent protein kinase (DNA-PK). DNA-PK is the central component to the non-homologous end joining pathway (NHEJ) used to repair double strand breaks and base damage induced by ionizing radiation (IR). Inhibition of repair within hypoxic environments in conjunction with IR provides a means to selectively target tumour cells. Previously, clonogenic survival was used to determine that Hapi3 provides a sensitization enhancement ratio of 1.8 and does not release the active inhibitor, IC86621, under normoxic conditions. The objective of this research is to evaluate formulations of Hapi3 in mice to achieve desirable tissue concentrations for radiosensitization and perform efficacy studies to determine if hypoxic inhibition of repair will improve the efficacy radiation therapy in an in vivo tumour model. Due to Hapi3 solubility limitations, the dose necessary to achieve radiosensitization in tissues was not achieved as evidenced by a lack of observable growth delay. Compounds based on IC86621 are unsuitable for further development, however syntheses of new hypoxia activated repair inhibitors should be pursued.
