Archaeology--Methodology

description: The architectural remains uncovered by archaeological excavations offer a unique and invaluable opportunity to analyze early building materials. In particular, the benefits of using mortar to date periods of construction in architectural features have been widely acknowledged in the fields of archaeology and architectural conservation. However, mortars collected as loose fragments from within stratified layers have been generally disregarded. The central aim of this research is to demonstrate that mortars from these contexts are diagnostic artifacts. The mortars in this analysis were excavated from the Stadt Huys Block and Seven Hanover Square excavations in 1980. Together, these sites represent some of the earliest and most continuous history of development in New York City, beginning with the Dutch settlement of New Amsterdam. A study of mortars collected from these sites can supplement information on building practices for a period in which there is little to no extant building stock to reference. Petrographic analysis has revealed distinctive compositional characteristics in historic mortars of the early Colonial Period in New York City. This analysis has also demonstrated how mortar analysis can serve as an additional tool for dating and contextualizing archaeological deposits. This study can serve as a demonstration of how the fields of archaeology and architectural conservation can benefit from the informational resources that they can provide each other.

description: We consider a family of solutions to string theory which depend on arbitrary functions and contain regular event horizons. They describe six dimensional extremal black strings with traveling waves and have an inhomogeneous distribution of momentum along the string. The structure of these solutions near the horizon is studied and the horizon area computed. We also count the number of BPS string states at weak coupling whose macroscopic momentum distribution agrees with that of the black string. It is shown that the number of such states is given by the Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of the black string with traveling waves.

description: For nanoscale systems such as nanoparticles and 3D-bonded networks, the range of spatial coherence is well reflected in the Raman spectral pattern. For confined, or localized, phonons, the range of q-points contributing to the spectrum depends on the phonon confinement length, which makes possible to derive the size information from the spectra. In this work, Raman spectrum of vitreous silica is described as localized phonons of SiO2 network. The convergence of the spectral pattern with the confinement size is studied. It is shown that the phonon propagation scale in vitreous silica is within the 0.5-2 nm range.

description: Generalisations of the familiar Euler top equations in three dimensions are proposed which admit a sufficiently large number of conservation laws to permit integrability by quadratures. The usual top is a classical analogue of the Nahm equations. One of the examples discussed here is a seven-dimensional Euler top, which arises as a classical counterpart to the eight-dimensional self-dual equations which are currently believed to play a role in new developments in string theory.

description: ArgusSpec is a prototype autonomous spectroscopic follow-up instrument designed to characterize flares detected by the Argus Pathfinder telescope array by taking short exposure (30 s) broadband spectra (370–750 nm) at low resolutions (R ∼ 150 at 500 nm). The instrument is built from consumer off-the-shelf astronomical equipment, assembled inside a shipping container, and deployed alongside the Argus Pathfinder at a dark sky observing site in Western North Carolina. In this paper, we describe the hardware design, system electronics, custom control software suite, automated target acquisition procedure, and data reduction pipeline. We present initial on-sky test data used to evaluate system performance and show a series of spectra taken of a small flare from AD Leonis. The $35k prototype ArgusSpec was designed, built, and deployed in under a year, largely from existing parts, and has been operating on-sky since 2023 March. With current hardware and software, the system is capable of receiving an observation, slewing, performing autonomous slit acquisition, and beginning data acquisition within an average of 32 s. With Argus Pathfinder’s 1 s cadence survey reporting alerts of rising sources within 2 s of onset, ArgusSpec can reach new targets well within a minute of the start of the event. As built, ArgusSpec can observe targets down to a 20σ limiting magnitude of m V ≈ 13 at 30 s cadence with an optical resolution of R ∼ 150 (at 500 nm). With automated rapid acquisition demonstrated, later hardware upgrades will be based on a clean-sheet optical design, solving many issues in the current system, significantly improving the limiting magnitude, and potentially enabling deep spectroscopy by the coaddition of data from an array of ArgusSpec systems. The primary science driver behind ArgusSpec is the characterization of the blackbody evolution of flares from nearby M-dwarfs. Large flares emitted by these stars could have significant impacts on the potential habitability of any orbiting exoplanets, but our current understanding of these events is in large part built on observations from a handful of active stars. ArgusSpec will characterize large numbers of flares from across the night sky, building a spectroscopic library of the most extreme events from a wide variety of stellar masses and ages.

description: In this work, we demonstrate reconfigurable frequency manipulation of quantum states of light in the telecom C-band. Triggered single photons are encoded in a superposition state of three channels using sidebands up to 53 GHz created by an off-the-shelf phase modulator. The single photons are emitted by an InAs/GaAs quantum dot grown by metal-organic vapor-phase epitaxy within the transparency window of the backbone fiber optical network. A cross-correlation measurement of the sidebands demonstrates the preservation of the single photon nature; an important prerequisite for future quantum technology applications using the existing telecommunication fiber network.

description: Many countries are currently challenged with the extensive integration of renewable energy sources, which necessitates vast capacity expansion measures. These measures in turn require comprehensive power flow studies, which are often computationally highly demanding. In this work a reduction strategy for large-scale grid models is introduced which not only reduces the model complexity but also preserves the structure and designated grid features. The objective is to ensure that areas crucial to the behavior and the relation of all elements to their physical counterparts remain unchanged. This is accomplished through a specifically designed reduction method for suitable areas identified through topological, electrical and market-based approaches for which we provide an open-source implementation. We show that the proposed strategy adapts to various models and accomplishes a strong reduction of buses and branches while retaining a low dispatch and branch flow deviation. Furthermore, the accuracy of the reduction generalizes well to other scenarios.

description: This study investigated the motivating and engaging factors of jazz programs present in the learning environments of avocational jazz musicians in higher education. The investigation explored these factors as perceived by the learners themselves as well as the educators tasked with creating enriching musical experiences for their college students. The student participants for this study consisted of college students currently enrolled at a liberal arts college in the NorthAbeles, east, all of whom perform in the jazz ensemble at their institution. The setting of liberal arts colleges was chosen for the study as an environment where students are actively learning and performing jazz music while pursuing other academic interests more closely related of their desired future professional goals. The educator participants came from the same institutions and provided data in specific regard to their experiences working with this unique population of jazz learners. Students reported their motivations were peaked by the social element inherent to the ensemble experience, their desire to exercise their creativity, and the value of diverse learning environment as part of their overall college experience. On the other hand, educators from the same institutions found that they were best serving their students by demonstrating their own enthusiasm for the music, demonstrating the critical thinking element of jazz learning, and understanding that the students more closely relate the ensemble to a recreational activity available at the college.
      The study gathered data from focus group interviews with 49 students and 6 one-on-one interviews with jazz educators at liberal arts colleges. The questions for these interviews and focus groups were derived from an earlier pilot study of the same population of jazz learners and liberal arts music educators, and the analysis paralleled reported findings to relevant motivational theories and pedagogical practices common to jazz performance education.

description: In non-equilibrium many-body perturbation theory, Langreth rules are an efficient way to extract real-time equations from contour ones. However, the standard rules are not applicable in cases that do not reduce to simple convolutions and multiplications. We introduce a procedure for extracting real-time equations from general multi-argument contour functions with an arbitrary number of arguments. This is done for both the standard Keldysh contour, as well as the extended contour with a vertical track that allows for general initial states. This amounts to the generalization of the standard Langreth rules to much more general situations. These rules involve multi-argument retarded functions as key ingredients, for which we derive intuitive graphical rules. We apply our diagrammatic recipe to derive Langreth rules for the so-called double triangle structure and the general vertex function, relevant for the study of vertex corrections beyond the $GW$ approximation.
title: Characterisation of Antimicrobial Usage in Small-Scale Commercial Chicken Farms in the Mekong Delta of Vietnam
Creators: name: Nguyen, Van Cuong
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2021

description: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is a global threat to the health and wealth of nations. The AMR crisis has been attributed to the overuse and misuse antimicrobials. Excessive use of antimicrobials in animal production is one of the contributing factors to this global threat. This thesis aims to characterize antimicrobial used (AMU) in small-scale chicken farms in the Mekong Delta region of Vietnam. This includes consumption of antimicrobials mixed with water by the farmer as well those included in commercial feeds as antimicrobial growth promoters (AGPs). The epidemiological data gathered is used to investigate the relationship between AMU and disease. First, I conducted a systematic literature review to provide an overview of metrics and methodologies used to measure AMU in animal production in the scientific literature, as well as reviewing existing data on AMU in different species in order to identify data gaps worldwide. Then, I performed a longitudinal study on a large cohort of small-scale chicken farms in Dong Thap province in the Mekong Delta region of Vietnam from October 2016 to May 2018 to investigate in detail the types and amounts of antimicrobials consumed, as well as the relationship between AMU and disease. On average, chickens consumed antimicrobials mixed in water over 382.6 per 1,000 days, or 323.4 mg (SEM ±11.3mg) per kg of chicken produced. The average amounts of AAIs in commercial feed given to produce one kg of chicken was 84.8mg (SEM ±9.3mg). Prophylactic AMU did not reduce the probability of disease, and administration of some antimicrobial classes did increase the risk of disease. Therapeutic AMU often had an effect on mortality but the pattern was inconsistent across the combinations of antimicrobial classes and clinical signs. Thirdly, I performed a study in mixed-species small-scale farms typical of the Mekong Delta in order to investigate whether AMU Page 10 of 342 data could be gathered using a simple cross-sectional study design. Results highlight the disproportionately high levels of AMU in animal production in the Mekong Delta region, and provide a guideline for the estimation of AMU from simple cross-sectional surveys on farms. Results from this thesis suggest that efforts to promote responsible use of antimicrobials and limit excessive AMU should primarily target animal production. The message ‘prophylactic AMU does not overall reduced the probability of disease in flocks’ should be further disseminated to poultry farming communities.

description: A small excavation was carried out at a site identified by Iron Age pottery and burnt flint eroding from the tidal margin. A single early Iron Age feature, part of a small pit (possibly an evaporation pan) was found. This contained pottery, charcoal and a few briquetage fragments, the latter suggest the production of salt from sea-water at the site. Unexpectedly, large numbers of worked flints were also found; the commonest implement types were various forms of scraper, particularly notched or concave. This unusual flint assemblage is dated to the Neolithic, and is interpreted as evidence of exploitation of salt-marsh resources at that time.

description: The origin of peculiar magnetic structures in cubic rare-earth (R) hexaborides RB_6 is traced back to their characteristic band structure. The three sphere-like Fermi surfaces induce interpocket polarization of the conduction band as a part of a RKKY-type interaction. It is shown for the free-electron-like model that the interpocket polarization gives rise to a broad maximum in the intersite interaction I(q) around q=(1/4,1/4,1/2) in the Brillouin zone. This maximum is consistent with the superstructure observed in R=Ce, Gd and Dy. The wave-number dependence of I(q) is independently extracted from analysis of the spin-wave spectrum measured for NdB_6. It is found that I(q) obtained from fitting the data has a similarly to that derived by the interpocket polarization model, except that the absolute maximum now occurs at (0,0,1/2) in consistency with the A-type structure. The overall shape of I(q) gives a hint toward understanding an incommensurate structure in PrB_6 as well.

description: We present adaptive optics assisted integral field spectroscopy of 34 star-forming galaxies at $z$ = 0.8-3.3 selected from the HiZELS narrow-band survey. We measure the kinematics of the ionised interstellar medium on $\sim$1 kpc scales, and show that the galaxies are turbulent, with a median ratio of rotational to dispersion support of $v$/$σ$=0.82$\pm$0.13. We combine the dynamics with high-resolution rest-frame optical imaging and extract emission line rotation curves. We show that high-redshift star-forming galaxies follow a similar power-law trend in specific angular momentum with stellar mass as that of local late type galaxies. We exploit the high resolution of our data and examine the radial distribution of angular momentum within each galaxy by constructing total angular momentum profiles. Although the stellar mass of a typical star-forming galaxy is expected to grow by a factor $\sim$8 in the $\sim$5 Gyrs between $z$$\sim$3.3 and $z$$\sim$0.8, we show that the internal distribution of angular momentum becomes less centrally concentrated in this period i.e the angular momentum grows outwards. To interpret our observations, we exploit the EAGLE simulation and trace the angular momentum evolution of star forming galaxies from $z$$\sim$3 to $z$$\sim$0, identifying a similar trend of decreasing angular momentum concentration. This change is attributed to a combination of gas accretion in the outer disk, and feedback that preferentially arises from the central regions of the galaxy. We discuss how the combination of the growing bulge and angular momentum stabilises the disk and gives rise to the Hubble sequence.

Selenium from coal mining in the Elk River Valley
Creators: name: Chapman, Peter M.
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Coal mining in the Elk River Valley, B.C. enhances natural release of selenium (Se), resulting in elevated concentrations of selenium downstream of the mines. Studies to determine the extent and significance of Se in Valley waters began in 1996. Selenium concentrations downstream of the five coal mines have increased in some areas. However, the same magnitude of increases has not occurred in lotic (flowing water) fauna, and Se concentrations in fish from lotic areas have not increased from 1996 to 2003. Although Se concentrations in cutthroat trout and some of their eggs were above concentrations shown to be toxic in other areas with other fish species, a laboratory effects study found that fry hatched and developed normally. Both cutthroat and bull trout populations have increased since 1986. A study of two common waterfowl (American dippers and spotted sandpipers) living in lotic areas found no discernable adverse effects, and Se concentrations in eggs were below thresholds at which adverse effects have been documented in other areas. Although lotic areas are most common in the Elk River Valley, lentic (still water) areas may represent the worst case because there is more likelihood of inorganic Se being converted into the much more toxic organic Se. A reconnaissance study in 2002 examined lentic areas (a screening level sampling strategy) to identify “worst-case” lentic areas, to select appropriate reference areas comparable to key mine-exposed areas of interest and to identify receptor species that are at risk in these areas. For instance, the most contaminated lentic area was also the most productive area. However, more detailed studies are required before any definitive conclusions are reached. Ongoing and planned studies include determinations of aquatic food webs in both lentic and lotic areas, further monitoring in both areas, and fish and waterfowl effects studies in lentic areas. A human health risk assessment found that there was negligible risk to humans eating fish from the Valley, and benefits from consuming moderate quantities of fish.

description: The real cohomology of the space of imbeddings of S^1 into R^n, n>3, is studied by using configuration space integrals. Nontrivial classes are explicitly constructed. As a by-product, we prove the nontriviality of certain cycles of imbeddings obtained by blowing up transversal double points in immersions. These cohomology classes generalize in a nontrivial way the Vassiliev knot invariants. Other nontrivial classes are constructed by considering the restriction of classes defined on the corresponding spaces of immersions.

description: Due in part to the growing popularity of the Advanced Placement program, an increasingly large percentage of entering college students are enrolling in calculus courses having already taken calculus in high school.  Many students do not score high enough on the AP calculus examination to place out of Calculus I, and many do not take the examination.  These students take Calculus I in college having already seen most or all of the material.  Students at two colleges were surveyed to determine whether prior calculus experience has an effect on these students' effort levels or motivation.  Students who took calculus in high school did not spend as much time on their calculus coursework as those who did not take calculus, but they were just as motivated to do well in the class and they did not miss class any more frequently.  Prior calculus experience was not found to have a negative effect on student motivation or effort.  Colleges should work to ensure that all students with prior calculus experience receive the best possible placement, and consider making a separate course for these students, if it is practical to do so.

description: The remains of a gun-casting blast furnace at Maynards Gate, Crowborough, were excavated in advance of building operations. The base of the furnace, a working floor and the wheel-pit were uncovered, though robbing-out had been expensive. Masonry was of sandstone throughout; the floor of the wheel-pit consisted of well-preserved wooden planks. The circular gun-casting pit, three metres deep, was found, backfilled with rubble; this structure too had suffered from robbing-out. The furnace was operating in the late sixteenth and early seventeenth centuries.

description: For almost forty years gun ownership and the motivational underpinnings of why guns are valued has received little attention in psychology. The gun rights debate is an unresolved salient item that has been on the national agenda for decades, and national polls provide evidence for a slow and steady voter realignment over this issue. Motivation science tools that explain value creation, regulatory focus and regulatory fit, help to explain the salience and importance of gun rights for millions of Americans. Three field experiments, with replications and extensions, demonstrated motivational fit between the prevention orientation (marked by vigilant concern for threats) and gun ownership. This research remained agnostic regarding the legal and moral components of the gun rights debate. Instead, these experiments demonstrate the malleability of gun value as a function of fundamental motivations. This applied political psychology research made two basic contributions to regulatory fit theory. First, these field experiments found fit effects between motivational inductions and distinct field environments. Also, by incorporating a pure control condition into these regulatory fit experiments, this research pinned down that literal dollar value of motivationally relevant objects is intensified by fit (as opposed to decreased by non-fit).

description: Additional file 5. Resistance distribution in the K*L population. Resistance distribution in the full-sib population (n = 328) for pathotypes 2 (A), 6 (B) and 18 (C). The phenotyping was performed with the Glynne-Lemmerzahl method in 2016. For each resistance category, the proportion of individuals with the R allele of Sen3 (black), without the R allele (grey) and the proportion of recombinants (black stripes) is given. In (D) are given the Pearson correlations between the resistance mean scores of P2, P6 and P18. Chi square tests were conducted to validate if the resistance to the three pathotypes segregated in a 1:1 ratio in the population (E).

HIV infections—Prevention
African American women

description: The world has suffered immensely and disproportionately from the ravages of HIV and AIDS. Oral PrEP is a single pill taken once daily that can reduce the risk of sexually transmitted HIV infection by up to 92% (CDC, 2014a).
      This study describes African American females’ awareness, beliefs, and perception of PrEP and identifies factors that may motivate women to either accept or reject PrEP. This cross-sectional study occurred over a 3-month period from November 2017 to January 2018, following from a previous pilot study. The sample comprised African American women aged 18 and over receiving STD or HIV screening services at a FQHC in Brooklyn, New York. Women were interviewed using the five characteristics of the Diffusion of Innovation theory and also completed a risk assessment for HIV using CDC recommended guidelines for screening heterosexual women for PrEP.
      Awareness of PrEP remained extremely low among the 72 African American women interviewed in the study. Using the CDC guidelines, all women reported one or more risk factors for PrEP indication. Awareness about PrEP, negative reactions from partners and shared experiences from female PrEP users were cited as factors that may predict and motivate African American women to use PrEP. Additionally, skills in pill-taking, cost and insurance, and maintaining privacy while using PrEP were strong enabling factors to support PrEP use. Factors such as initiating couple’s PrEP use as an intervention, medical doctors overtly directing PrEP for women, and the role of older women in promoting PrEP use were persuasive factors in reinforcing the utilization of PrEP among African American women in the study.
      Creative programming within high burden communities is critically important to penetrate with messages of new innovations and best practices. The results of the current research speak volumes to the continued work needed to educate communities with prevention messages.
Dietary intake of low-income adults in South Africa: ultra-processed food consumption a cause for concern

description: OBJECTIVE: Given the rapidly changing food environment and proliferation of ultra-processed foods (UPF) in South Africa (SA), this study aimed to critically evaluate dietary quality and adequacy of low-income adults using the Nova classification system and WHO and World Cancer Research Fund dietary guidelines.
DESIGN: Secondary household data and 1-d 24-h recalls were analysed from two cross-sectional studies conducted in 2017-2018. Foods consumed were classified according to the Nova classification system. Compliance with WHO dietary guidelines and UPF consumption trends were evaluated.
SETTING: Three low-income areas (Langa, Khayalitsha and Mount Frere) in SA were included.
PARTICIPANTS: In total, 2521 participants (18-50 years) were included in the study.
RESULTS: Participants had a mean energy intake of 7762 kJ/d. Most participants were within the acceptable WHO guideline range for saturated fat (80·4 %), total fat (68·1 %), Na (72·7 %) and free sugar (57·3 %). UPF comprised 39·4 % of diets among the average adult participant. Only 7·0 % of all participants met the WHO guideline for fruit and vegetables and 18·8 % met the guideline for fibre. Those within the highest quartile of share of energy from UPF consumed statistically higher amounts of dietary components to limit and were the highest energy consumers overall.
CONCLUSIONS: Low-income adults living in SA are consuming insufficient protective dietary components, while UPF consumption is prevalent. Higher UPF consumers consume larger amounts of nutrients linked to increased chronic disease risk. Policy measures are urgently needed in SA to protect against the proliferation of harmful UPF and to promote and enable consumption of whole and less UPF.
Mortal Brownian motion: three short stories

description: Mortality introduces an intrinsic time scale into the scale-invariant Brownian motion. This fact has important consequences for different statistics of Brownian motion. Here we are telling three short stories, where spontaneous death, such as radioactive decay, puts a natural limit to "lifetime achievements" of a Brownian particle. In story 1 we determine the probability distribution of a mortal Brownian particle (MBP) reaching a specified point in space at the time of its death. In story 2 we determine the probability distribution of the area $A=\int_0^{T} x(t) dt$ of a MBP on the line. Story 3 addresses the distribution of the winding angle of a MBP wandering around a reflecting disk in the plane. In stories 1 and 2 the probability distributions exhibit integrable singularities at zero values of the position and the area, respectively. In story 3 a singularity at zero winding angle appears only in the limit of very high mortality. A different integrable singularity appears at a nonzero winding angle. It is inherited from the recently uncovered singularity of the short-time large-deviation function of the winding angle for immortal Brownian motion.

X-ray Absorption Near-Edge Structure calculations with pseudopotentials. Application to K-edge in diamond and alpha-quartz

description: We present a reciprocal-space pseudopotential scheme for calculating X-ray absorption near-edge structure (XANES) spectra. The scheme incorporates a recursive method to compute absorption cross section as a continued fraction. The continued fraction formulation of absorption is advantageous in that it permits the treatment of core-hole interaction through large supercells (hundreds of atoms). The method is compared with recently developed Bethe-Salpeter approach. The method is applied to the carbon K-edge in diamond and to the silicon and oxygen K-edges in alpha-quartz for which polarized XANES spectra were measured. Core-hole effects are investigated by varying the size of the supercell, thus leading to information similar to that obtained from cluster size analysis usually performed within multiple scattering calculations.
