description: We report the results of a systematic investigation of the phase diagram of the iron-based superconductor system, Ba1-xNaxFe2As2, from x = 0.1 to x = 1.0 using high resolution neutron and x-ray diffraction and magnetization measurements. We find that the coincident structural and magnetic phase transition to an orthorhombic (O) structure with space group Fmmm and a striped antiferromagnet (AF) with space group F(C)mm'm' in Ba1-xNaxFe2As2 is of first order. A complete suppression of the magnetic phase is observed by x = 0.30, and bulk superconductivity occurs at a critical concentration near 0.15. We compare the new findings to the previously reported results of the hole-doped Ba1-xKxFe2As2 solid solution in order to resolve the differing effects of band filling and A-site cation size on the properties of the magnetic and superconducting ground states. The substantial size difference between Na and K causes various changes in the lattice trends, yet the overarching property phase diagram from the Ba1-xKxFe2As2 phase diagram carries over to the Ba1-xNaxFe2As2 solid solution. We note that the composition dependence of the c axis turns over from positive to negative around x = 0.35, unlike the K-substituted materials. We show that this can be understood by invoking steric effects; primarily the Fe2As2 layer shape is dictated mostly by the electronic filling, which secondarily induces an interlayer spacing adjusted to compensate for the given cation volume. This exemplifies the primacy of even subtle features in the Fe2As2 layer in controlling both the structure and properties in the uncollapsed 122 phases.

title: The potential for in-situ mineral carbonation in Ireland

subject: Mineral carbonation

description: Industrial decarbonisation, involving hard-to-abate sectors and key carbon dioxide removal (CDR) technologies, necessitates geological CO2 disposal/storage. Geological storage can be performed via solubility and hydrodynamic trapping in sedimentary basins, or alternatively via the novel approach of CO2 mineral trapping in mafic/ultramafic lithologies, known as in-situ mineral carbonation. Ireland currently lacks specific targets for the deployment of carbon capture and storage (CCS), or CDR technologies. By characterising the geological storage potential of CO2, government targets for CCS deployment will be more easily implemented. Therefore, this thesis involves mapping, screening, ranking, and characterising igneous lithologies in Ireland for CO2 storage via in-situ mineral carbonation. Mapping of the lithologies highlighted 29 groups of geological formations across Ireland, considered as candidate CO2 reservoirs for in-situ mineral carbonation. These geological formations were screened using several criteria covering mineralogical, structural, socioeconomic, and environmental conditions. The ranking process identified the Antrim Lava Group (ALG) flood basalts as the most suitable for mineral carbonation, given their proximity to major power plants in Northern Ireland and sufficient thickness for CO2 injection. The outcropping metagabbro of the Connemara Metagabbro-Gneiss Complex (MGC) emerged as the most promising candidate reservoir in the Republic of Ireland, potentially extending up to 10 km offshore and having high secondary permeability from Connemara metamorphism. The Dawros Peridotite intrusion, despite its small size, was also identified for further study due to its ultramafic composition. Petrology and energy dispersive X-Ray spectrometry (EDS) characterisation were performed for the geochemical characterisation of these three reservoirs. The ALG comprises large glomeroporphyritic forsterite within coarse-crystalline ophitic/sub-ophitic groundmass labradorite and augite, with secondary mineralisation of mostly Ca-rich zeolites. However, forsterite is often altered to iddingsite and variably to clay minerals. The MGC contains highly anorthic plagioclase and magnesiohornblende but shows variable phyllic and propylitic alteration to quartz-sericite-pyrite and epidote-chlorite-albite assemblages, respectively. Lastly, the Dawros Peridotite is altered from its ultramafic protolith to amphibole-serpentine-talc-carbonate facies, indicating serpentinisation and natural carbonation have occurred. Therefore, the methodologies applied to the three formations identify the appropriate mineralogy for mineral carbonation, but secondary alteration products, particularly phyllosilicates and zeolites, will also be incorporated into carbonation reactions where present.

description: Two thought experiments are described in which ruler measurements of spatial intervals are performed in different reference frames. They demonstrate that such intervals are frame-independent as well as independent of the nature of the space-time transformation equations. As explained in detail elsewhere, the `length contraction' effect of conventional special relativity theory is therefore spurious and unphysical.

description: Electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) and EIT-like effects have been investigated in a wide variety of coupled resonant systems. Here, a classification of the phase characteristics of the EIT-like spectral responses is presented. Newly identified phase responses reveal unexplored operation regimes of EIT-like systems. Taking advantage of the new phase regimes, one can obtain group delay, dispersion and nonlinearity properties greatly enhanced by almost one order of magnitude, compared to the traditionally constructed EIT-like devices, which breaks the fundamental limitation (e.g., delay-bandwidth product) intrinsic to atomic EIT and EIT-like effects. Optical devices and electrical circuits are analyzed as examples showing the universality of our finding. We show that cavity-QED-based quantum phase gates can be greatly improved to achieve a phase shift of π. The new phase characteristics are also believed to be useful to build novel doubly resonant devices in quantum information based on cavity QED, optomechanics, and metamaterials.

description: Cosmological models with vector fields received much attention in recent years. Unfortunately, most of them are plagued with severe instabilities or other problems. In particular, it was noted by G. Esposito-Farese, C. Pitrou and J.-Ph. Uzan in arXiv:0912.0481 that the models with a non-linear function of the Maxwellian kinetic term do always imply violations of hyperbolicity somewhere in the phase space. In this work we make this statement more precise in several respects and show that those violations may not be present around spatially homogeneous configurations of the vector field.

description: This thesis evaluates the alignment of two innovation education programmes – the Smurfit Business School Executive MBA and the University of Galway BioInnovate Masters – with the needs of a clinician seeking to address innovation in the Irish MedTech Industry. An initial literature review was conducted, which explored concepts in innovation, with a particular focus on the Irish MedTech Industry. Next, a series of semi-structured interviews with key opinion leaders in the industry identified the main drivers, barriers and enablers of innovation, by way of thematic network analysis. Finally, the Rolfe reflective model was used to assess each programme and then a comparative analysis was used to assess both programmes in the context of the industry and research question.

description: The scalar meson $D_{s0}^*(2317)$ is found 37(17)MeV below DK threshold in a lattice simulation of the $J^P=0^+$ channel using, for the first time, both DK as well as $\bar sc$ interpolating fields. The simulation is done on $N_f=2+1$ gauge configurations with $m_π\simeq 156 $MeV, and the resulting $M_{D_{s0}^*}-\tfrac{1}{4}(M_{D_s}+3M_{D_s^*})=266(16)$ MeV is close to the experimental value 241.5(0.8)MeV. The energy level related to the scalar meson is accompanied by additional discrete levels due to DK scattering states. The levels near threshold lead to the negative DK scattering length $a_0=-1.33(20)$ fm that indicates the presence of a state below threshold.

description: We consider a two-level quantum system prepared in an arbitrary initial state and relaxing to a steady state due to the action of a Markovian dissipative channel. We study how optimal control can be used for speeding up or slowing down the relaxation towards the fixed point of the dynamics. We analytically derive the optimal relaxation times for different quantum channels in the ideal ansatz of unconstrained quantum control (a magnetic field of infinite strength). We also analyze the situation in which the control Hamiltonian is bounded by a finite threshold. As byproducts of our analysis we find that: (i) if the qubit is initially in a thermal state hotter than the environmental bath, quantum control cannot speed up its natural cooling rate; (ii) if the qubit is initially in a thermal state colder than the bath, it can reach the fixed point of the dynamics in finite time if a strong control field is applied; (iii) in the presence of unconstrained quantum control it is possible to keep the evolved state indefinitely and arbitrarily close to special initial states which are far away from the fixed points of the dynamics.

description: The number and distribution of dwarf satellite galaxies remain a critical test of cold dark matter-dominated structure formation on small scales. Until recently, observational information about galaxy formation on these scales has been limited mainly to the Local Group. We have searched for faint analogues of Local Group dwarfs around nearby bright galaxies, using a spatial clustering analysis of the photometric catalog of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) Data Release 8. Several other recent searches of SDSS have detected clustered satellite populations down to $Δm_r \equiv ({m}_{r,\, {\rm sat}} -\, {m}_{r,\, {\rm main}}) \sim 6$-$8$, using photometric redshifts to reduce background contamination. SDSS photometric redshifts are relatively imprecise, however, for faint and nearby galaxies. Instead we use angular size to select potential nearby dwarfs, and consider only the nearest isolated bright galaxies as primaries. As a result, we are able to detect an excess clustering signal from companions down to $Δm_r = 12$, four magnitudes fainter than most recent studies. We detect an over-density of objects at separations $< 400$ kpc, corresponding to about $4.6 \pm 0.5$ satellites per central galaxy, consistent with the satellite abundance expected from the Local Group given our selection function. Although the sample of satellites detected is incomplete by construction, since it excludes the least and most compact dwarfs, this detection provides a lower bound on the average satellite luminosity function, down to luminosities corresponding to the faintest "classical" dwarfs of the Local Group.

description: Glioblastoma are known to infiltrate the brain parenchyma instead of forming a solid tumor mass with a defined boundary. Only the part of the tumor with high tumor cell density can be localized through imaging directly. In contrast, brain tissue infiltrated by tumor cells at low density appears normal on current imaging modalities. In clinical practice, a uniform margin is applied to account for microscopic spread of disease. The current treatment planning procedure can potentially be improved by accounting for the anisotropy of tumor growth: Anatomical barriers such as the falx cerebri represent boundaries for migrating tumor cells. In addition, tumor cells primarily spread in white matter and infiltrate gray matter at lower rate. We investigate the use of a phenomenological tumor growth model for treatment planning. The model is based on the Fisher-Kolmogorov equation, which formalizes these growth characteristics and estimates the spatial distribution of tumor cells in normal appearing regions of the brain. The target volume for radiotherapy planning can be defined as an isoline of the simulated tumor cell density. A retrospective study involving 10 glioblastoma patients has been performed. To illustrate the main findings of the study, a detailed case study is presented for a glioblastoma located close to the falx. In this situation, the falx represents a boundary for migrating tumor cells, whereas the corpus callosum provides a route for the tumor to spread to the contralateral hemisphere. We further discuss the sensitivity of the model with respect to the input parameters. Correct segmentation of the brain appears to be the most crucial model input. We conclude that the tumor growth model provides a method to account for anisotropic growth patterns of glioblastoma, and may therefore provide a tool to make target delineation more objective and automated.

description: Our analysis of a VLBA 12-hour synthesis observation of the OH masers in a well-known star-forming region W49N has yielded valuable data that enables us to probe distributions of magnetic fields in both the maser columns and the intervening interstellar medium (ISM). The data consisting of detailed high angular-resolution images (with beam-width ~20 milli-arc-seconds) of several dozen OH maser sources or "spots", at 1612, 1665 and 1667 MHz, reveal anisotropic scatter broadening, with typical sizes of a few tens of milli-arc-seconds and axial ratios between 1.5 to 3. Such anisotropies have been reported earlier by Desai, Gwinn & Diamond (1994) and interpreted as induced by the local magnetic field parallel to the Galactic plane. However, we find a) the apparent angular sizes on the average a factor of ~2.5 less than those reported by Desai et al. (1994), indicating significantly less scattering than inferred earlier, and b) a significant deviation in the average orientation of the scatter-broadened images (by ~10 degrees) from that implied by the magnetic field in the Galactic plane. More intriguingly, for a few Zeeman pairs in our set, significant differences (up to 6 sigma) are apparent in the scatter broadened images for the two hands of circular polarization, even when apparent velocity separation is less than 0.1 km/s. This may possibly be the first example of a Faraday rotation contribution to the diffractive effects in the ISM. Using the Zeeman pairs, we also study the distribution of magnetic field in the W49N complex, finding no significant trend in the spatial structure function. In this paper, we present the details of our observations and analysis leading to these findings, discuss implications of our results for the intervening anisotropic magneto-ionic medium, and suggest the possible implications for the structure of magnetic fields within this star-forming region.

description: Does information have mass? This question has been asked many times and there are many answers even on the Internet, including on Yahoo Answers. Usually the answer is "no". Attempts have been made to assess the physical mass of information by estimating the mass of electrons feeding the power-guzzling computers and devices making up the Internet, the result being around 50 gram. Other efforts to calculate the mass of information have assumed that each electron involved in signal transfer carries one bit of information, which makes the corresponding mass to be about 10^-5 gram. We address the fundamental question of minimum mass related to a bit of information from the angles of quantum physics and special relativity. Our results indicate that there are different answers depending on the physical situation, and sometimes the mass can even be negative. We tend to be skeptical about the earlier mass estimations, mentioned above, because our results indicate that the electron's mass does not play a role in any one of them.

description: Side effects of “solar-radiation management” (SRM) might be perceived as an important metric when society decides on implementing SRM as a climate policy option to alleviate anthropogenic global warming. We generalize cost-risk analysis that originally trades off expected welfare loss from climate policy costs and risks from transgressing climate targets to also include risks from applying SRM. In a first step of acknowledging SRM risks, we represent global precipitation mismatch as a prominent side effect of SRM under long-tailed probabilistic knowledge about climate sensitivity. We maximize a social welfare function for the following three scenarios, considering alternative relative weights of risks: temperature-risk-only, precipitation-risk-only, and equally-weighted both-risks. Our analysis shows that in the temperature-risk-only scenario, perfect compliance with the 2 °C-temperature target is attained for all numerically represented climate sensitivities, a unique feature of SRM, but the 2 °C-compatible precipitation corridor is violated. The precipitation-risk-only scenario exhibits an approximate mirror-image of this result. In addition, under the both-risks scenario, almost 90% and perfect compliance can be achieved for the temperature and precipitation targets, respectively. Moreover, in a mitigation-only analysis, the welfare loss from mitigation cost plus residual climate risks, compared to the no-climate-policy option, is approximately 4.3% (in terms of balanced growth equivalent), while being reduced more than 90% under a joint-mitigation-SRM analysis.

description: In this paper, we apply the method of the Nehari manifold to study the Kirchhoff type equation \begin{equation*} -\Big(a+b\int_Ω|\nabla u|^2dx\Big)Δu=f(x,u) \end{equation*} submitted to Dirichlet boundary conditions. Under a general $4-$superlinear condition on the nonlinearity $f$, we prove the existence of a ground state solution; that is a nontrivial solution which has least energy among the set of nontrivial solutions. In case which $f$ is odd with respect to the second variable, we also obtain the existence of infinitely many solutions. Under our assumptions the Nehari manifold does not need to be of class $\mathcal{C}^1$.

description: Mental disorders and alcohol misuse are often comorbid, and this comorbidity is more common in those who develop mental disorders following exposure to traumatic events. To investigate the relationship between combat exposure and operational role (support versus combat) with mental disorders and associated comorbidity in a UK military cohort. 4896 participants from a UK military cohort reported their operational role and frequency of exposure to combat events during deployment. Outcome measures included self-reported post-traumatic stress disorder, common mental disorder and alcohol misuse. Personnel reporting higher levels of combat exposure were more likely to meet criteria for two or more co-occurring mental disorders (odds ratio [OR] 3.90, 95% confidence interval [CI] 2.73–5.58). While having a combat role increased the risk of developing co-occurring disorders compared to having a support role (OR 1.67, 95% CI 1.26–2.23), this effect diminished following adjustment for variables including combat exposure (OR 0.89, 95% CI 0.62–1.27). Combat exposure may play a greater role in the development of comorbid mental disorders than operational role, i.e. job title. Clinicians treating military personnel should be alert to the increased risk of comorbid mental disorders and alcohol misuse among those with a history of combat exposure.

description: Many patients with psychosis are socially isolated and struggle to maintain or establish satisfying social relationships. This has been explained as resulting from a reduced ability to understand one’s own mind, others’ minds, and how these interact. This understanding of one’s own and others’ minds is the foundation of many different theories and models from developmental to cognitive psychiatry. Increasing this ability is the goal of many therapeutic approaches and may facilitate establishing a positive therapeutic relationship. Although much interest has focused on what clinicians say in clinical encounters, few scales exist to categorize the content of patients’ communication. Theoretically founded in literature on metacognition, theory of mind and cognitive theory, the aim of this study was to create a framework to capture and quantify how patients with psychosis talk about their own and others’ thoughts, feelings and behaviors in clinical interactions. A two-stage iterative process of analysis, refinement and reliability testing was undertaken. In the first stage, thematic analysis, using a combined inductive and deductive approach, was carried out on 14 Italian transcripts of real clinical encounters in acute setting. An initial framework was developed from Italian transcripts, refined, translated and then applied to a sample of 15 English transcripts of real clinical encounters. The framework was further refined, finalized and concordance between independent raters was calculated. A framework comprised of 8 categories was developed to categorize verbal displays in which patients recognize and communicate their own emotions, mental states, desires and plans, relevant narratives of their own life and experiences as expressed in routine clinical interactions. Good reliability was obtained in both English (k = 0.87) and Italian transcripts (k = 0.90). Patients’ thoughts about their thoughts, feelings and behaviors, and others’ can be reliably assessed in routine clinical encounters using this newly developed framework. Future research should broaden the scope of this research to explore how the questions asked by psychiatrists may influence how patients talk about their thoughts, feelings and actions, and if/how they are correlated with the therapeutic relationship and clinical outcomes.

description: Despite anecdotal evidence that the out of pocket costs of OCD can be substantial in some cases, there is no evidence on how many people they affect, or the magnitude of these costs. This paper explores the type and quantity of out of pocket expenses reported by a large sample of adults with OCD. Data on out of pocket expenses were collected from participants taking part in the OCTET multi-centre randomised controlled trial. Participants were aged 18+, meeting DSM-IV criteria for OCD, and scoring 16+ on the Yale Brown Obsessive Compulsive Scale. Individual-level resource use data including a description and estimated cost of out of pocket expenses were measured using an adapted version of the Adult Service Use Schedule (AD-SUS): a questionnaire used to collect data on resource use. Forty-five percent (208/465) reported out of pocket expenses due to their OCD. The mean cost of out of pocket expenses was £19.19 per week (SD £27.56 SD), range £0.06–£224.00. Future economic evaluations involving participants with OCD should include out of pocket expenses, but careful consideration of alternative approaches to the collection and costing of this data is needed.
