description: In this series we construct an effective field theory (EFT) in curved spacetime to study gravitational radiation and backreaction effects. We begin in this paper with a derivation of the self-force on a compact object moving in the background spacetime of a supermassive black hole. The EFT approach utilizes the disparity between two length scales, which in this problem are the size of the compact object and the radius of curvature of the background spacetime, to treat the orbital dynamics of the compact object, described as an effective point particle, separately from its tidal deformations. Ultraviolet divergences are regularized using Hadamard's {\it partie finie} to isolate the non-local finite part from the quasi-local divergent part. The latter is constructed from a momentum space representation for the graviton retarded propagator and is evaluated using dimensional regularization in which only logarithmic divergences are relevant for renormalizing the parameters of the theory. As a first important application of this framework we explicitly derive the first order self-force given by Mino, Sasaki, Tanaka, Quinn and Wald. Going beyond the point particle approximation, to account for the finite size of the object, we demonstrate that for extreme mass ratio inspirals the motion of a compact object is affected by tidally induced moments at $O(ε^4)$, in the form of an Effacement Principle. The relatively large radius-to-mass ratio of a white dwarf star allows for these effects to be enhanced until the white dwarf becomes tidally disrupted, a potentially $O(ε^2)$ process, or plunges into the supermassive black hole. This work provides a new foundation for further exploration of higher order self force corrections, gravitational radiation and spinning compact objects.

description: This diplomatic thesis deals with the construction and the operation of stations and stops of a tram network. Here are registered the constructional and operational characteristics of a modern tram line. The basic principles of design, construction and the operation of a tram system are examined. Also the parameters of the level of service provided by a tram stop are determined. At the same time the importance of these parameters for the users of this system are examined, based on a questionnaire survey. In order to evaluate the tram stops, a methodology is proposed and a register is formed. Finally, with the assistance of this register the tram stops of the network of Athens are reviewed.

description: We demonstrate that global observations of high-energy cosmic rays contribute to understanding unique characteristics of a large-scale magnetic flux rope causing a magnetic storm in August 2018. Following a weak interplanetary shock on 25 August 2018, a magnetic flux rope caused an unexpectedly large geomagnetic storm. It is likely that this event became geoeffective because the flux rope was accompanied by a corotating interaction region and compressed by high-speed solar wind following the flux rope. In fact, a Forbush decrease was observed in cosmic-ray data inside the flux rope as expected, and a significant cosmic-ray density increase exceeding the unmodulated level before the shock was also observed near the trailing edge of the flux rope. The cosmic-ray density increase can be interpreted in terms of the adiabatic heating of cosmic rays near the trailing edge of the flux rope, as the corotating interaction region prevents free expansion of the flux rope and results in the compression near the trailing edge. A northeast-directed spatial gradient in the cosmic-ray density was also derived during the cosmic-ray density increase, suggesting that the center of the heating near the trailing edge is located northeast of Earth. This is one of the best examples demonstrating that the observation of high-energy cosmic rays provides us with information that can only be derived from the cosmic ray measurements to observationally constrain the three-dimensional macroscopic picture of the interaction between coronal mass ejections and the ambient solar wind, which is essential for prediction of large magnetic storms.

description: Da der Nachhaltigkeit von Reaktionen in der Chemie immer mehr Aufmerksamkeit geschenkt wird, ist die Entwicklung und Implementierung neuer, nachhaltigerer Katalysator- /Lösemittelsysteme wünschenswert. Wichtige Ansätze und Konzepte auf dem Weg zu einer grüneren Chemie sind insbesondere Katalysatoren, die sich leicht von ihren Produkten trennen und damit wiederverwenden lassen. Zu diesem Zweck wurden hydrophile und damit leicht abtrennbare NHC-Gold-Komplexe synthetisiert. Um die Wasserlöslichkeit zu gewährleisten, wurden hydrophile Polyethylenglykol (PEG)-Seitenketten in imidazolbasierten NHC-Komplexe eingeführt. Darüber hinaus wurde eine neue und nachhaltige Klasse von Lösemitteln, die sogenannten Deep Eutectic Solvents (DES), an ausgewählten goldkatalysierten Reaktionen getestet und hinsichtlich ihrer Recyclingfähigkeit optimiert. Weiterhin wurde die katalytische Aktivität der hydrophilen Goldkomplexe in den folgenden Testreaktionen in grünen Lösungsmitteln untersucht.

description: We study the interaction of two localized impurities in a repulsive one-dimensional Fermi liquid via bosonization. In a previous paper [Phys. Rev. A 72, 023616 (2005)], it was shown that at distances much larger than the interparticle spacing the impurities interact through a Casimir-type force mediated by the zero sound phonons of the underlying quantum liquid. Here we extend these results and show that the strength and sign of this Casimir interaction depend sensitively on the impurities separation. These oscillations in the Casimir interaction have the same period as Friedel oscillations. Their maxima correspond to tunneling resonances tuned by the impurities separation.

description: We consider the supercircle $S^{1|1}$ equipped with the standard contact structure. The conformal Lie superalgebra K(1) acts on $S^{1|1}$ as the Lie superalgebra of contact vector fields; it contains the Möbius superalgebra $osp(1|2)$. We study the space of linear differential operators on weighted densities as a module over $osp(1|2)$. We introduce the canonical isomorphism between this space and the corresponding space of symbols and find interesting resonant cases where such an isomorphism does not exist.

description: Use of Object-Oriented design patterns in game development and its effects appears to be an extremely well-known and discussed issue. Although it is widely accepted that design patterns are beneficial during the software development, what happens if the software under development is an open-source game? The objective of this master thesis is the introduction of a web repository recording object-oriented design patterns employed in open-source games. Additionally, use of this repository in order to carry out an empirical study concerning object-oriented design patterns and retrieve results that show if there exist any design patterns that are more applicable in game develop-ment than others and if some game genres are more fertile to the use of design pat-terns than others.

description: We compute the next-to-leading order virtual corrections to the partonic cross-section of the process $gg\to ZH$, in the high-energy and large-$m_t$ limits. We use Padé approximants to increase the radius of convergence of the high-energy expansion in $m_t^2/s$, $m_t^2/t$ and $m_t^2/u$ and show that precise results can be obtained down to energies which are fairly close to the top quark pair threshold. We present results both for the form factors and the next-to-leading order virtual cross-section.

description: The search for topologically non-trivial states of matter has become an important goal for condensed matter physics. Recently, a new class of topological insulators has been proposed. These topological insulators have an insulating gap in the bulk, but have topologically protected edge states due to the time reversal symmetry. In two dimensions the helical edge states give rise to the quantum spin Hall (QSH) effect, in the absence of any external magnetic field. Here we review a recent theory which predicts that the QSH state can be realized in HgTe/CdTe semiconductor quantum wells. By varying the thickness of the quantum well, the band structure changes from a normal to an "inverted" type at a critical thickness $d_c$. We present an analytical solution of the helical edge states and explicitly demonstrate their topological stability. We also review the recent experimental observation of the QSH state in HgTe/(Hg,Cd)Te quantum wells. We review both the fabrication of the sample and the experimental setup. For thin quantum wells with well width $d_{QW}< 6.3$ nm, the insulating regime shows the conventional behavior of vanishingly small conductance at low temperature. However, for thicker quantum wells ($d_{QW}> 6.3$ nm), the nominally insulating regime shows a plateau of residual conductance close to $2e^2/h$. The residual conductance is independent of the sample width, indicating that it is caused by edge states. Furthermore, the residual conductance is destroyed by a small external magnetic field. The quantum phase transition at the critical thickness, $d_c= 6.3$ nm, is also independently determined from the occurrence of a magnetic field induced insulator to metal transition.

description: A very common problem in science is the numerical diagonalization of symmetric or hermitian 3x3 matrices. Since standard "black box" packages may be too inefficient if the number of matrices is large, we study several alternatives. We consider optimized implementations of the Jacobi, QL, and Cuppen algorithms and compare them with an analytical method relying on Cardano's formula for the eigenvalues and on vector cross products for the eigenvectors. Jacobi is the most accurate, but also the slowest method, while QL and Cuppen are good general purpose algorithms. The analytical algorithm outperforms the others by more than a factor of 2, but becomes inaccurate or may even fail completely if the matrix entries differ greatly in magnitude. This can mostly be circumvented by using a hybrid method, which falls back to QL if conditions are such that the analytical calculation might become too inaccurate. For all algorithms, we give an overview of the underlying mathematical ideas, and present detailed benchmark results. C and Fortran implementations of our code are available for download from http://www.mpi-hd.mpg.de/~globes/3x3/ .

description: In this paper, we present an open-source multi-resolution and multi-physics library: SPHinXsys (pronunciation: s'finksis) which is an acronym for \underline{S}moothed \underline{P}article \underline{H}ydrodynamics (SPH) for \underline{in}dustrial comple\underline{X} \underline{sys}tems. As an open-source library, SPHinXsys is developed and released under the terms of Apache License (2.0). Along with the source code, a complete documentation is also distributed to make the compilation and execution easy. SPHinXsys aims at modeling coupled multi-physics industrial dynamic systems including fluids, solids, multi-body dynamics and beyond, in a multi-resolution unified SPH framework. As an SPH solver, SPHinXsys has many advantages namely, (1) the generic design provides a C++ API showing a very good flexibility when building domain-specific applications, (2) numerous industrial or scientific applications can be coupled within the same framework and (3) with the open-source philosophy, the community of users can collaborate and improve the library. SPHinXsys presently (v0.2.0) includes validations and applications in the fields of fluid dynamics, solid dynamics, thermal and mass diffusion, reaction-diffusion, electromechanics and fluid-structure interactions (FSI).

Atheism caused the alienation of the person and his/her transformation into an individual existence. The rationalized human being of the Western Civilization has lost the meaning of his/her own existence, replacing the plenitude offered by the society with God with the nihilistic self-consciousness of the contemporary human being. The after-the-Fall human being has retrieved the perspective oh his/her remedy and rehabilitation from the sickened passions he/she has inherited, through a method offered by the orthodox ascetic ideology of the person. The removal of the effects of the Fall is realized through empirical theology, the disassociation of the psyche from the polymorphic lie and its connection to God.

Measurement of the neutron capture cross section of the s-only isotope 204Pb from 1 eV to 440 keV

description: The neutron capture cross section of 204Pb has been measured at the CERN n_TOF installation with high resolution in the energy range from 1 eV to 440 keV. An R-matrix analysis of the resolved resonance region, between 1 eV and 100 keV, was carried out using the SAMMY code. In the interval between 100 keV and 440 keV we report the average capture cross section. The background in the entire neutron energy range could be reliably determined from the measurement of a 208Pb sample. Other systematic effects in this measurement could be investigated and precisely corrected by means of detailed Monte Carlo simulations. We obtain a Maxwellian average capture cross section for 204Pb at kT=30 keV of 79(3) mb, in agreement with previous experiments. However our cross section at kT=5 keV is about 35% larger than the values reported so far. The implications of the new cross section for the s-process abundance contributions in the Pb/Bi region are discussed.

description: This paper investigates the transition from abrasive to adhesive wear in gross-slip fretting assuming contact oxygenation concept which suggests that adhesion appears in the inner part of the interface if the di-oxygen partial pressure is below a threshold value. In the lateral sides, where di-oxygen molecules are sufficient, oxidation and abrasion prevail. To assess this phenomenon, 34NiCrMo16 flat-on-flat contacts are tested. Contact oxygenation is quantified using the ''oxygen-distance, '' parameter defined as the averaged width of the external abrasion corona. Confirming this concept, decreases with contact pressure and frequency but remains constant versus sliding amplitude, fretting cycles and contact area. evolution is formalized using a power law formulation which allowed predicting wear transitions for plain and macro-textured surfaces.

description: To test the hypothesis that terrestrial runoff affects the functions of calcareous sediments in coral reefs and hampers the development of corals, we analysed calcareous sediments with different levels of bound phosphate, collected from reef areas of Okinawajima, Japan. We confirmed that phosphate bound to calcareous sediments were readily released into ambient seawater, resulting in much higher concentrations of phosphorous in seawater from heavily polluted areas (4.3–19.0 µM as compared with less than 0.096 µM in natural ambient seawater). Additionally, we examined the effect of phosphate released from calcareous sediments on the development of Acropora digitifera coral juveniles. We found that high phosphate concentrations in seawater clearly inhibit the skeletal formation of coral juveniles. Our results demonstrate that calcareous sediments in reef areas play a crucial role in mediating the impact of terrestrial runoff on corals by storing and releasing phosphate in seawater.

High temperature biological treatment of Kraft pulping effluent
Creators: name: Tai, Judy Yuet Wah
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The pulp and paper process produces hot effluent streams which currently must be cooled prior to biological treatment. Cooling such streams requires capital for construction of cooling towers or heat exchangers, as well as additional money for maintenance and operating costs. This project was to develop and test a high temperature activated sludge (HTAS) technology for the treatment of Kraft pulping effluents. Studies are based on two laboratory scale activated sludge bioreactors. The operating temperature of the laboratory reactors was increased over the temperature range 35°C to 55°C. The response of the reactors was measured in a number of ways. First, conventional treatment parameters such as biochemical oxygen demand (BOD), chemical oxygen demand (COD), solids content, oxygen uptake rate (OUR), toxicity and pH were monitored. Second, changes in the microbial ecosystem were indirectly monitored by measurement of changes in substrate uptake profiles, floe structure, settleability, and kinetics of methanol and formate uptake. Results have proven that the bioreactor was able to achieve BOD, COD and toxicity reductions of 94.8%, 35.8% and 93.8% respectively at 55°C. Effluent volatile suspended solids concentration increased with increasing temperature and averaged 63.3 mg/L at 55°C. Most probable number analyses of substrate use profiles indicated that the population of microorganisms responsible for degrading methanol, formate and resin acids decreased at temperatures over 45°C. The high temperature bioreactor recovered from a rapid drop in temperature within 24 hours. Kinetic constants obtained from measuring the substrate uptake of methanol and formate show that biomass has a weaker capacity to degrade methanol at elevated temperatures but an approximately equal formate-degrading activity at both temperatures.

description: High-throughput QR decomposition is a key operation in many advanced signal processing and communication applications. For some of these applications, using floating-point computation is becoming almost compulsory. However, there are scarce works in hardware implementations of floating-point QR decomposition for embedded systems. In this paper, we propose a very efficient high-throughput floating-point Givens rotation unit for QR decomposition. Moreover, the initial proposed design for conventional number formats is enhanced by using the new Half-Unit Biased format. The provided error analysis shows the effectiveness of our proposals and the trade-off of different implementation parameters. FPGA implementation results are also presented and a thorough comparison between both approaches. These implementation results also reveal outstanding improvements compared to other previous similar designs in terms of area, latency, and throughput.

Collective plasmonic modes of metal nano-particles in two-dimensional periodic regular arrays

description: We investigate the collective plasmonic modes of metal nano-particles in periodic two-dimensional (2D) arrays within a point-dipole description. As an open system, the full-dynamic dispersion relations of the 2D arrays are obtained through an efficient method which gives an effective polarizability describing the collective response of a system. Both the dispersion relations and mode qualities are simultaneously related to the imaginary part of the effective polarizability, which has contributions from the single-particle response as well as the inter-particle coupling. The transversal long-range dipolar interaction is dominated by a wave term together with a purely geometrical constant representing the static geometrical contribution to resonant frequencies. As concrete examples, we considered small Ag spheres arranged in a square lattice. We find that inside the light-cone, the transverse quasi-mode has a reasonably high mode quality while the two in-plane modes show significant radiation damping. Near the light-line, we observe strong coupling with free photons for the bands of the transverse mode and the transversal in-plane mode, and the longitudinal in-plane mode exhibits a negative group-velocity inside the light-cone. Vanishing group velocities in the light-cone for all the quasi-modes are found to be intrinsic properties of the 2D metal nano-sphere dense arrays.

Application of natural and tailored minerals to the treatment of thermomechanical paper mill white water
Creators: name: Bouffard, Sylvie C.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Buildup of dissolved and colloidal substances in closed white water systems is detrimental to machine runnability and product quality. This research investigated the technical feasibility of using natural and tailored minerals for treatment of synthetic process water (approximately 40 mg/L of dehydroabietic acid (DHA)) and three simulated thermomechanical paper mill white waters. Treatment of synthetic process water with 20 g/L of natural minerals, ground to less than 0.180 mm aggregate size, resulted in maximum DHA removal of 55%. Tailored minerals were prepared by mixing zeolites with short-chain and long-chain organic cations. When applied in doses less than the external cation exchange capacity (CEC) of zeolites, cations were firmly bound through coulombic interactions on the external surfaces only. Only long-chain hexadecyltrimethylammonium (HDTMA) cations improved the uptake capacity of zeolites for DHA. Partitioning of DHA into the HDTMA layer was strongly dependent on the mineral concentration and CEC value. HDTMA-tailored minerals with CEC values above 90 meq/100 g ensured complete removal of DHA from synthetic process water. Application of 75 g/L of HDTMA-tailored heulandite to the treatment of white water (pH 7) containing 2270 mg/L of suspended solids, 25 mg/L fatty acids (FA) and 84 mg/L resin acids (RA), resulted in 35% reduction of FA, 28% RA, 24% soluble chemical oxygen demand, 18% total organic carbon and 10% dissolved organic carbon. Constituents, measured as chemical oxygen demand, total dissolved solids and total dissolved volatile solids, were not removed because of the low surface area of heulandite covered with HDTMA cations. The HDTMA layer most likely selectively rejected high molecular weight substances.
