description: The high-spin level structures of 96,97,98Ru (Z544) have been investigated using the 65Cu(36S, pxn)96,97,98Ru (x54,3,2) reactions. About 130 new transitions have been observed and unambiguously placed in the decay schemes of these nuclei. The level schemes have been extended up to spin J'22– 34\, and excitation energies Ex'20224 MeV. Spherical shell model calculations have been performed and theoretical level energies compared with experimental values. Calculations using 88Sr as the core give a reasonable agreement for the observed energy levels up to J<16\ ~the maximum angular momentum possible within this restricted model space!. The higher angular momentum states are dominated by the n (g9/2)21 configuration, associated with breaking of the N550 core. The experimental indications for this ‘‘core breaking’’ are ~i! the observation of g rays with energies Eg' 2 MeV at intermediate spins and ~ii! the fragmentation of g -ray intensity into a number of branches. A cascade of E2 transitions of nearly equal transition energies has been observed in 98Ru after the core breaking (J>16\), possibly manifesting vibrational behavior.

A specific link between migraine and functional GI disorders
Creators: name: Palsson, O.S.
Publisher: name: Elsevier Ltd
Year: 2016

description: A substantial body of published research over the past 40 years has established that functional gastrointestinal disorders have an unusually large overlap with several non-gastrointestinal pain syndromes, including fibromyalgia, chronic pelvic pain, and temporomandibular joint disorder. Migraine has also been found to have such excess comorbidity with functional gastrointestinal disorders. For example, a meta-analysis of six studies reported an overall odds ratio (OR) of 2·66 for migraine in individuals with irritable bowel syndrome (IBS).

description: Quadrupole moments of the six known superdeformed ~SD! bands of 193Hg and the yrast SD band of 192Hg
have been determined by a Doppler-shift-attenuation-method measurement utilizing the gammasphere array.
The quadrupole moments of all 193Hg SD bands were found to be similar, suggesting the active single-particle
orbitals in the mass-190 region exhibit only small shape-driving effects. Additionally, there is evidence for an
unexpected difference in the quadrupole moments of SD bands in 192Hg and 193Hg.

description: A two-variable generalization of the Big $-1$ Jacobi polynomials is introduced and characterized. These bivariate polynomials are constructed as a coupled product of two univariate Big $-1$ Jacobi polynomials. Their orthogonality measure is obtained. Their bispectral properties (eigenvalue equations and recurrence relations) are determined through a limiting process from the two-variable Big $q$-Jacobi polynomials of Lewanowicz and Woźny. An alternative derivation of the weight function using Pearson-type equations is presented.

Weak Galactic halo--dwarf spheroidal connection from RR Lyrae stars

description: We discuss the role that dwarf galaxies may have played in the formation of the Galactic halo (Halo) using RR Lyrae stars (RRL) as tracers of their ancient stellar component. The comparison is performed using two observables (periods, luminosity amplitudes) that are reddening and distance independent. Fundamental mode RRL in six dwarf spheroidals and eleven ultra faint dwarf galaxies (1,300) show a Gaussian period distribution well peaked around a mean period of =0.610+-0.001 days (sigma=0.03). The Halo RRL (15,000) are characterized by a broader period distribution. The fundamental mode RRL in all the dwarf spheroidals apart from Sagittarius are completely lacking in High Amplitude Short Period (HASP) variables, defined as those having P< 0.48 days and Av> 0.75mag. Such variables are not uncommon in the Halo and among the globular clusters and massive dwarf irregulars. To further interpret this evidence, we considered eighteen globulars covering a broad range in metallicity (-2.3< [Fe/H]< -1.1) and hosting more than 35 RRL each. The metallicity turns out to be the main parameter, since only globulars more metal--rich than [Fe/H] -1.5 host RRL in the HASP region. This finding suggests that dSphs similar to the surviving ones do not appear to be the major building-blocks of the Halo. Leading physical arguments suggest an extreme upper limit of 50% to their contribution. On the other hand, massive dwarfs hosting an old population with a broad metallicity distribution (Large Magellanic Cloud, Sagittarius) may have played a primary role in the formation of the Halo.

description: We exploited graphene nanoribbons based meta-surface to realize coherent perfect absorption (CPA) in the mid-infrared regime. It was shown that quasi-CPA frequencies, at which CPA can be demonstrated with proper phase modulations, exist for the graphene meta-surface with strong resonant behaviors. The CPA can be tuned substantially by merging the geometric design of the meta-surface and the electrical tunability of graphene. Furthermore, we found that the graphene nanoribbon meta-surface based CPA is realizable with experimental graphene data. The findings of CPA with graphene meta-surface can be generalized for potential applications in optical detections and signal processing with two-dimensional optoelectronic materials.

description: The structure and dynamics of the outer solar atmosphere are reviewed with emphasis on the role played by the magnetic field. Contemporary observations that focus on high resolution imaging over a range of temperatures, as well as UV, EUV and hard X-ray spectroscopy, demonstrate the presence of a vast range of temporal and spatial scales, mass motions, and particle energies present. By focussing on recent developments in the chromosphere, corona and solar wind, it is shown that small scale processes, in particular magnetic reconnection, play a central role in determining the large-scale structure and properties of all regions. This coupling of scales is central to understanding the atmosphere, yet poses formidable challenges for theoretical models.

description: We propose a Bell measurement scheme by employing a logical qubit in Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger (GHZ) entanglement with an arbitrary number of photons. Remarkably, the success probability of the Bell measurement as well as teleportation of the GHZ entanglement can be made arbitrarily high using only linear optics elements and photon on-off measurements as the number of photons increases. Our scheme outperforms previous proposals using single photon qubits when comparing the success probabilities in terms of the average photon usages. It has another important advantage for experimental feasibility that it does not require photon number resolving measurements. Our proposal provides an alternative candidate for all-optical quantum information processing.

description: We present a high resolution spectroscopic analysis of 62 red giants in the Milky Way globular cluster NGC5286. We have determined abundances of representative light proton-capture, alpha, Fe-peak and neutron-capture element groups, and combined them with photometry of multiple sequences observed along the colour-magnitude diagram. Our principal results are: (i) a broad, bimodal distribution in s-process element abundance ratios, with two main groups, the s-poor and s-rich groups; (ii) substantial star-to-star Fe variations, with the s-rich stars having higher Fe, e.g. _s-rich - _s-poor ~ 0.2~dex; and (iii) the presence of O-Na-Al (anti-)correlations in both stellar groups. We have defined a new photometric index, c_{BVI}=(B-V)-(V-I), to maximise the separation in the colour-magnitude diagram between the two stellar groups with different Fe and s-element content, and this index is not significantly affected by variations in light elements (such as the O-Na anticorrelation). The variations in the overall metallicity present in NGC5286 add this object to the class of "anomalous" GCs. Furthermore, the chemical abundance pattern of NGC5286 resembles that observed in some of the anomalous GCs, e.g. M22, NGC1851, M2, and the more extreme Omega Centauri, that also show internal variations in s-elements, and in light elements within stars with different Fe and s-elements content. In view of the common variations in s-elements, we propose the term s-Fe-anomalous GCs to describe this sub-class of objects. The similarities in chemical abundance ratios between these objects strongly suggest similar formation and evolution histories, possibly associated with an origin in tidally disrupted dwarf satellites.

description: The high-spin level structures of 94,95Mo (N552,53) have been investigated via the 65Cu(36S, a p2n)94Mo and 65Cu(36S, a pn)95Mo reactions at 142 MeV. The level schemes have been extended up to spin J'19\ and excitation energies Ex'12 MeV. Spherical shell-model calculations have been performed and compared with the experimental energy levels. The level structure of 94Mo exhibits a single-particle nature and the higher-angular-momentum states are dominated by the excitation of a g9/2 neutron across the N550 shell gap. The level sequences observed in 95Mo have been interpreted on the basis of the spherical shell model and weak coupling of a d5/2 or a g7/2 neutron to the 94Mo core.

description: Near-surface two-dimensional electron gases on the topological insulator Bi$_2$Te$_2$Se are induced by electron doping and studied by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy. A pronounced spin-orbit splitting is observed for these states. The $k$-dependent splitting is strongly anisotropic to a degree where a large splitting ($\approx 0.06$ Å$^{-1}$) can be found in the $\barΓ\bar{M}$ direction while the states are hardly split along $\barΓ\bar{K}$. The direction of the anisotropy is found to be qualitatively inconsistent with results expected for a third-order anisotropic Rashba Hamiltonian. However, a $\mathbf{k} \cdot \mathbf{p}$ model that includes the possibility of band structure anisotropy as well as both isotropic and anisotropic third order Rashba splitting can explain the results. The isotropic third order contribution to the Rashba Hamiltonian is found to be negative, reducing the energy splitting at high $k$. The interplay of band structure, higher order Rashba effect and tuneable doping offers the opportunity to engineer not only the size of the spin-orbit splitting but also its direction.

description: NaSt1 (aka Wolf-Rayet 122) is a peculiar emission-line star embedded in an extended nebula of [N II] emission with a compact dusty core. This object was characterized by Crowther & Smith (1999) as a Wolf-Rayet (WR) star cloaked in an opaque nebula of CNO-processed material, perhaps analogous to Eta Car and its Homunculus nebula, albeit with a hotter central source. To discern the morphology of the [N II] nebula we performed narrowband imaging using the Hubble Space Telescope and Wide-field Camera 3. The images reveal that the nebula has a disk-like geometry tilted 12 degrees from edge-on, composed of a bright central ellipsoid surrounded by a larger clumpy ring. Ground-based spectroscopy reveals radial velocity structure (~10 km/s) near the outer portions of the nebula's major axis, which is likely to be the imprint of outflowing gas. Near-infrared adaptive-optics imaging with Magellan AO has resolved a compact ellipsoid of Ks-band emission aligned with the larger [N II] nebula, which we suspect is the result of scattered He I line emission (2.06 um). Observations with the Chandra X-ray Observatory have revealed an X-ray point source at the core of the nebula that is heavily absorbed at energies <1 keV and has properties consistent with WR stars and colliding-wind binaries. We suggest that NaSt1 is a WR binary embedded in an equatorial outflow that formed as the result of non-conservative mass transfer. NaSt1 thus appears to be a rare and important example of a stripped-envelope WR forming through binary interaction, caught in the brief Roche-lobe overflow phase.

description: The apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) is a candidate marker of treatment response in osteoblastic metastases that are not evaluable by morphologic imaging. However, it is unclear whether the ADC meets the basic requirement for reliable treatment response evaluation, namely a low variance of repeated measurements in relation to the differences found between viable and nonviable metastases. The present study addresses this question by analyzing repeated in vivo ADCmedian measurements of 65 osteoblastic metastases in nine patients, as well as phantom measurements. PSMA-PET served as a surrogate for bone metastasis viability. Measures quantifying repeatability were calculated and differences in mean ADC values according to PSMA-PET status were examined. The relative repeatability coefficient %RC of ADCmedian measurements was 5.8% and 12.9% for phantom and in vivo measurements, respectively. ADCmedian values of bone metastases ranged from 595×10^−6mm^2/s to 2090×10^−6mm^2/s with an average of 63% higher values in nonviable metastases compared with viable metastases (p < 0.001). ADC shows a small repeatability coefficient in relation to the difference in ADC values between viable and nonviable metastases. Therefore, ADC measurements fulfill the technical prerequisite for reliable treatment response evaluation in osteoblastic metastases.

The arguments presented here are simple and straightforward. It is also shown that extensions by Rakotch and Hu-Kirk of Edelstein's generalization of the Banach contraction principle to local contractions on chainable complete metric spaces derive from the theorem of Ran-Reurings.

description: Five superdeformed ~SD! bands have been observed in 149Tb, using the Gammasphere spectrometer. The
measurement was performed with a backed target to obtain lifetime information from a Doppler-shift attenuation
method analysis. It is proposed that the yrast SD band corresponds to the 148Gd(yrast)^p63 intruder
configuration. The first excited band ~band 2! is found to be identical to the 150Tb yrast SD band. Band 3 is
proposed to correspond to the p@301#1/2(a521/2)!@651#3/2(a521/2) proton-hole excitation coupled to
the p64n 71(n@651#1/2)21 intruder configuration. Bands 4 and 5, the weakest SD bands seen in the present
work, show similarities with band 3 and are most likely associated with a similar intruder configuration.

The Dynamical Fate of Self-Gravitating Disc Fragments After Tidal Downsizing

description: The gravitational instability model of planet/brown dwarf formation proposes that protostellar discs can fragment into objects with masses above a few Jupiter masses at large semimajor axis. Tidal downsizing may reduce both the object mass and semimajor axis. However, most studies of tidal downsizing end when the protostellar disc disperses, while the system is embedded in its parent star-forming region. To compare disc fragment descendants with exoplanet and brown dwarf observations, the subsequent dynamical evolution must be explored. We carry out N-Body integrations of fragment-fragment scattering in multi-object star systems, and star systems embedded in substructured clusters. In both cases, we use initial conditions generated by population synthesis models of tidal downsizing. The scattering simulations produce a wide range of eccentricities. The ejection rate is around 25%. The ejecta mass distribution is similar to that for all objects, with a velocity dispersion consistent with those produced by full hydrodynamic simulations. The semimajor axis distribution after scattering extends to parsec scales. In the cluster simulations, 13% of objects are ejected from their planetary system, and around 10% experience significant orbit modification. A small number of objects are recaptured on high eccentricity, high inclination orbits. The velocity distribution of ejecta is similar to that produced by fragment-fragment scattering. If fragment-fragment scattering and cluster stripping act together, then disc fragmentation should be efficient at producing free-floating substellar objects, and hence characterising the free-floating planet population will provide strong constraints on the frequency of disc fragmentation.

description: The highest-spin discrete states (I ∼ 60 ℏ and Ex ∼ 30 MeV) in normal deformed nuclei have been observed in the rare-earth isotope 156Dy using the 124Sn(36S,4n) reaction in conjunction with the GAMMASPHERE spectrometer. The positive parity yrast sequence appears to evolve smoothly from a prolate (collective) towards an oblate (non-collective) shape, in contrast to the sudden shape change observed in the isotone 158Er. Terminating states are identified in the negative parity sequences at Iπ = 52- and 53- and specific multi-particle-hole configurations are assigned by comparison with cranked Nilsson-Strutinsky calculations. An order of magnitude increase in the interaction strength between close lying high-spin weakly collective structures is determined compared with that found in the lower-spin strongly collective domain. These results give valuable insight into the interplay between collective and terminating structures, and their competition for yrast status in the 40 - 60 ℏ spin range.

description: We present a model for the quark-antiquark interaction formulated in Minkowski space using the Covariant Spectator Theory. The quark propagators are dressed with the same kernel that describes the interaction between different quarks. By applying the axial-vector Ward-Takahashi identity we show that our model satisfies the Adler-zero constraint imposed by chiral symmetry. For this model, our Minkowski-space results of the dressed quark mass function are compared to lattice QCD data obtained in Euclidean space. The mass function is then used in the calculation of the electromagnetic pion form factor in relativistic impulse approximation, and the results are presented and compared with the experimental data from JLab.

description: The order parameter of a quantum-coherent many-body system can include a phase degree of freedom, which, in the presence of an electromagnetic field, depends on the choice of gauge. Because of the relationship between the phase gradient and the velocity, time-of-flight measurements reveal this gradient. Here, we make such measurements using initially trapped Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) subject to an artificial magnetic field. Vortices are nucleated in the BEC for artificial field strengths above a critical value, which represents a structural phase transition. By comparing to superfluid-hydrodynamic and Gross-Pitaevskii calculations, we confirmed that the transition from the vortex-free state gives rise to a shear in the released BEC's spatial distribution, representing a macroscopic method to measure this transition, distinct from direct measurements of vortex entry. Shear is also affected by an artificial electric field accompanying the artificial magnetic field turn-off, which depends on the details of the physical mechanism creating the artificial fields, and implies a natural choice of gauge. Measurements of this kind offer opportunities for studying phase in less-well-understood quantum gas systems.

description: Two superdeformed bands of 10 transitions each have been found in 189Tl extending the mass 190 region of
superdeformation down to neutron number N5108. The new bands can be interpreted as signature partners
and are proposed to be based on a proton i13/2 (V55/2) configuration, in analogy with the yrast superdeformed
band structures in the heavier odd-mass Tl isotopes. The dynamic moments of inertia of all these bands show
no noticeable differences as function of N, consistent with an essentially constant quadrupole deformation
from the center of the island to its edges.

description: The single-particle character of states outside the doubly magic (radioactive) nucleus 56Ni has been determined through a measurement of the (d, p) neutron transfer reaction using inverse kinematics. From the spectroscopic factors of the low-lying states in 57Ni, the astrophysically interesting yield for the 56Ni(p, γ) reaction to the mirror nucleus 57Cu has been calculated, utilizing charge symmetry. The rate for this reaction in the temperature range typical of novae, supernovae, and x-ray bursts is found to be more than 10 times higher than previously assumed.

GREENWASHING IN FAST FASHION BEAST, SHEIN’S, COMMUNICATIONS? — A CONTENT ANALYSIS
Creators: name: Medina, Sascha
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: The aim of this thesis project is to contribute to the understanding of corporate social responsibility, greenwashing, and influencer marketing within the fast fashion industry. While SHEIN implements corporate social responsibility strategies, there are issues and possible cases of greenwashing including the sin of hidden tradeoff, vagueness, lesser of two evils, and fibbing. Due to the lack of publicly available data and transparency, it is difficult to discern the true reality of greenwashing for SHEIN. Additionally, SHEIN uses influencer marketing on TikTok, which fuels constant desire for trendy clothing and consumption. This use also increases brand and product awareness and can even have a possible subsequent impact on sales, revenue and consumption.  Overall, SHEIN and other companies will need to implement balancing acts to 1) balance consumers’ sustainability demands with communications about those efforts to avoid greenwashing and 2) balance influencer marketing impact with corporate social responsibility impact. Furthermore, for honest and complete corporate social responsibility strategies, SHEIN should increase transparency as majority of the recommendations in this thesis involve increasing transparency. Increased transparency will allow consumers to better understand their purchases and compel SHEIN to become even more accountable for business operations.
