Sequential lithium deposition on hexagonal boron nitride monolayer on Ir(111): Identifying intercalation and adsorption
Creators: name: Petrović, Marin
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Stepwise deposition of Li atoms onto hexagonal boron nitride (hBN) monolayer on Ir(111) is investigated by means of angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy and low-energy electron diffraction. Sequential Li deposition progressively shifts the band structure of hBN to higher binding energies due to the induction of a variable electric potential originating from electronic charge donation by alkali atoms. At small coverages, Li atoms preferably intercalate under the hBN layer, where they are highly charged and give rise to a large initial shift of the band structure. Additionally, intercalated Li atoms effectively decouple hBN from the substrate and consequently reduce its moiré corrugation. As the deposition progresses further, Li atoms also adsorb on top of hBN, and the average effective charge of both intercalated and adsorbed Li atoms progressively diminishes due to the Coulomb repulsion penalty, which is partially screened by the metal substrate in the intercalated subsystem. This gives rise to a saturation of the respective electric potential and the band structure shift, and elaborates on the pathways and limitations of chemical functionalization of epitaxial hBN systems with charge donating species.

On the microwave response of thin superconducting films with trapped magnetic flux
Creators: name: Luzhbin, D A
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Superconductivity (cond-mat.supr-con)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Basing on the phenomenological model of the microwave response of thin superconducting films with trapped magnetic flux elaborated in Luzhbin et al (2005) Supercond. Sci. Technol. Vol.18, pp.1112-7, detailed analysis of the ac linear response of a superconducting strip-line resonator cooled down in FC and ZFC regimes is presented. Special emphasis on a nonuniform distribution of the trapped vortices and on the magnetic field and temperature dependence of the phenomenological model parameters such as critical current density, vortex pinning and viscous motion coefficients is made. For a ZFC case realistic trapped magnetic field distribution based on the critical-state model for a vortex penetration is used. Within the framework of the used model the unusual multi-peak dependence of the surface resistance of HTS films observed experimentally is explained as well as clarified conditions for its appearance.

description: We study the exclusive semileptonic decays B_s->D_{s0}^*\ell\barνand B_s->D_{s1}^*\ell\barν, where p-wave excited D_{s0}^* and D_{s1}^* states are identified with the newly observed D_{sJ}(2317) and D_{sJ}(2460) states. Within the framework of HQET the Isgur-Wise functions up to the subleading order of the heavy quark expansion are calculated by QCD sum rules. The decay rates and branching ratios are computed with the inclusion of the order of 1/m_Q corrections. We point out that the investigation of the B_s semileptonic decays to excited D_s mesons may provide some information about the nature of the new D_{sJ}^* mesons.

description: The NA64 experiment consists of two detectors which are planned to be located at the electron (NA64e) and muon (NA64$μ$) beams of the CERN SPS and start operation after the LHC long-stop 2 in 2021. Its main goals include searches for dark sector physics - particularly light dark matter (LDM), visible and invisible decays of dark photons ($A'$), and new light particles that could explain the $^8$Be and $g_μ-2$ anomalies. Here we review these physics goals, the current status of NA64 including recent results and perspectives of further searches, as well as other ongoing or planned experiments in this field. The main theoretical results on LDM, the problem of the origin of the $γ-A'$ mixing term and its connection to loop corrections, possible existence of a new light $Z'$ coupled to $L_μ-L_τ$ current are also discussed.

Benchmarking global $SU(2)$ symmetry in 2d tensor network algorithms

description: We implement and benchmark tensor network algorithms with $SU(2)$ symmetry for systems in two spatial dimensions and in the thermodynamic limit. Specifically, we implement $SU(2)$-invariant versions of the infinite Projected Entangled Pair States (iPEPS) and infinite Projected Entangled Simplex States (iPESS) methods. Our implementation of $SU(2)$ symmetry follows the formalism based on fusion trees from [P. Schmoll, S. Singh, M. Rizzi, R. Orús, arXiv:1809.08180]. In order to assess the utility of implementing $SU(2)$ symmetry the algorithms are benchmarked for three models with different local spin: the spin-1 bilinear-biquadratic model on the square lattice, and the Kagome Heisenberg antiferromagnets (KHAF) for spin-1/2 and spin-2. We observe that the implementation of $SU(2)$ symmetry provides better energies in general than non-symmetric simulations, with smooth scalings with respect to the number of parameters in the ansatz, and with the actual improvement depending on the specifics of the model. In particular, for the spin-2 KHAF model, our $SU(2)$ simulations are compatible with a quantum spin liquid ground state.

description: Ca3Ru2O7 with a Mott-like transition at 48 K features different in-plane anisotropies of magnetization and magnetoresistance. Applying magnetic field along the magnetic easy-axis precipitates a spin-polarized state via a first-order metamagnetic transition, but does not lead to a full suppression of the Mott state, whereas applying magnetic field along the magnetic hard axis does, causing a resistivity reduction of three orders of magnitude. The colossal magnetoresistivity is attributed to the collapse of the orbital ordered and spin-polarized state. Evidence for a density wave is also presented.

Genetic determinants of the host response to infection in critically ill adults with systemic inflammatory response syndrome
Creators: name: Sutherland, Ainsley M.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Background. Activation of a systemic inflammatory response to infection varies significantly between individuals with important clinical implications. Genotype contributes substantially to outcome of infectious disease. Hypothesis. Allelic variants of inflammatory and innate immunity genes affect protein levels and function and are predictive of outcome in critically ill adults who have systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS). Methods. Clinical data for derivation and validation cohorts of critically ill Caucasian patients with SIRS were collected for 28 days after admission to ICU and also for cardiac surgery patients. A subgroup of cardiac surgery patients had blood drawn post-operatively for cytokine measurements. Haplotypes of candidate genes were inferred from publicly available data using PHASE and cladistic structure determined using MEGA2. A set of "haplotype tag" single nucleotide polymorphisms (htSNPs) that defined major haplotype clades of the candidate genes and previously examined SNPs were chosen for genotyping in the three cohorts. Main results. CD14 -159TT was associated with Gram-negative cultures in the derivation cohort and with mortality in the validation cohort. Mannose-binding lectin (MBL) haplotype pairs XO/O and O/O were associated with positive bacterial cultures and TLR2 - 16933AA was associated with sepsis and with Gram-positive cultures in the derivation cohort. The C/T/A clade of IRAK4 was associated with Gram-positive cultures in a large derivation cohort and with decreased B-lymphocyte response to CpG and a trend to decreased fibroblast response to LPS. Haplotype clades of IL-6 were associated with 28-day mortality and organ dysfunction in the derivation cohort, but not in the validation cohort. Haplotype clades of IL-6 were associated with post-surgical vasodilation in cardiac surgery patients, but not with altered serum levels of cytokines after cardiac surgery. Conclusions. Variation in the key inflammatory and innate immunity genes IL-6, CD14, MBL and TLR2 contribute to variation in individuals' responses to inflammatory stimuli.

Donald R. Jasinski, MD died on Nov. 25, 2023, at age 85. Don was an internationally recognized expert in substance abuse, especially the evaluation of abuse liability of new drugs, and a longtime member of the CPDD. He spent 20 years at the NIMH (then NIDA) Addiction Research Center from 1965 -1985. Initially in Lexington, KY, he served as a Medical Officer, then advanced to Section Chief and Director. During the relocation of the ARC he moved to Baltimore and served as the Scientific Director of the Baltimore laboratory from 1981-1985. He did important pioneering work in exploring the clinical pharmacology of drugs of substance use disorder (SUD) and significantly advancing the methodology for evaluation of SUD liability. He was among the first to suggest the use of buprenorphine for treatment of opiate use disorder and present data to support that proposal. After his retirement from the US Public Health Service and the ARC in 1985 he joined the faculty of Johns Hopkins Medical School, becoming a Professor of Medicine and continuing his clinical pharmacology research and treatment of substance use disorders. Don was an active member of CPDD, making many presentations at the annual meeting, serving on the Board of Directors, and becoming a Founding Fellow when CPDD became a credentialed member organization. He was a devoted husband to Diane for 59 years and a loving and caring father and grandfather to 4 children and their spouses and 10 grandchildren. He will be remembered and missed by his large family and many friends and colleagues.

description: Absorption spectra of liquid water at 300 K are calculated from both classical and density functional theory molecular dynamics simulation data, which together span from 1 MHz to hundreds of THz, agreeing well with experimental data qualitativley and quantitavely over the entire range, including the IR modes, the microwave peak, and the intermediate THz bands. The spectra are decomposed into single-molecular and collective components as well as into components due to molecular reorientations and changes in induced intramolecular dipole moments. These decompositions shed new light on the motions underlying the librational and translational (hydrogen-bond stretch) bands at 20 and 5 THz respectively: interactions between donor protons and acceptor lone pair electrons are shown to be important for the line shape in both librational and translational regimes, and in- and out-of-phase librational dimer modes are observed and explored.

description: We study the energy distribution and equation of state of the universe between the end of inflation and the onset of radiation domination (RD), considering observationally consistent single-field inflationary scenarios, with a potential 'flattening' at large field values, and a monomial shape $V(ϕ) \propto |ϕ|^p$ around the origin. As a proxy for (p)reheating, we include a quadratic interaction $g^2ϕ^2X^2$ between the inflaton $ϕ$ and a light scalar 'daughter' field $X$, with $g^2>0$. We capture the non-perturbative and non-linear nature of the system dynamics with lattice simulations, obtaining that: $i)$ the final energy transferred to $X$ depends only on $p$, not on $g^2$, ; $ii)$ the final transfer of energy is always negligible for $2 \leq p < 4$, and of order $\sim 50\%$ for $p \geq 4$; $iii)$ the system goes at late times to matter-domination for $p = 2$, and always to RD for $p > 2$. In the latter case we calculate the number of e-folds until RD, significantly reducing the uncertainty in the inflationary observables $n_s$ and $r$.

title: Controls on mineralisation in the Cadeby formation (lower magnesian linestone)
Creators: name: Harwood, Gillian Margaret
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1983

description: Several distinct low grade assemblages of baryte and/or base metal sulphides are present within the Cadeby Formation at outcrop', each assemblage being restricted to a certain geographical area and, s betimes, one stratigraphic horizon. Although some occurrences are fault controlled, the majority have a stratigraphic control related to both carbonate facies and diagenetic history. High energy carbonate facies and bryozoan patch reefs are devoid of mineralization, whereas lower energy facies may host stratiform sulphides and baryte. Mineralization is also related to former displacive evaporites, either by direct replacement or by precipitation in voids resultant from evaporite dissolution. Diagenesis is complex with different mechanisms of dolomitization, evaporite replacement and dedolomitization; mineralization is related to early diagenesis at some localities. The spatial occurrences of mineralized localities suggests an underlying structural control linked with basement tectonics. Although isotope determinations indicate most sulphur has derived from interbedded evaporites, metals may have been introduced through basement fractures, be derived from within the formation or related to Kupferschiefer/Marl Slate mineralization. No common origin for the Permian mineral occurrences therefore exists.

description: Nella letteratura dedicata al cinese L2 è emersa l’ipotesi di riformare la pedagogia tonale. La questione di fondo è quale forma del terzo tono vada adottata come modello di base, ovvero, se gli apprendenti debbano essere esposti al terzo tono inteso come tono discendente-ascendente [214], o se invece debbano essere in primo luogo formati alla produzione e percezione del mezzo terzo inteso come tono basso continuo [21]. L’obiettivo di questo articolo è fornire una panoramica degli studi sulla rappresentazione tonale del terzo tono, anche in correlazione al quadro ottimalista, e presentare le implicazioni pedagogiche derivanti dalle due scelte.

description: The Galactic Center Excess (GCE) is an extended gamma-ray source in the central region of the Galaxy found in Fermi Large Area Telescope (Fermi-LAT) data. One of the leading explanations for the GCE is an unresolved population of millisecond pulsars (MSPs) in the Galactic bulge. Due to differing star formation histories it is expected that the MSPs in the Galactic bulge are older and therefore dimmer than those in the Galactic disk. Additionally, correlations between the spectral parameters of the MSPs and the spin-down rate of the corresponding neutron stars have been observed. This implies that the bulge MSPs may be spectrally different from the disk MSPs. We perform detailed modelling of the MSPs from formation until observation. Although we confirm the correlations, we do not find they are sufficiently large to significantly differentiate the spectra of the bulge MSPs and disk MSPs when the uncertainties are accounted for. Our results demonstrate that the population of MSPs that can explain the gamma-ray signal from the resolved MSPs in the Galactic disk and the unresolved MSPs in the boxy bulge and nuclear bulge can consistently be described as arising from a common evolutionary trajectory for some subset of astrophysical sources common to all these different environments. We do not require that there is anything unusual about inner Galaxy MSPs to explain the GCE. Additionally, we use a more accurate geometry for the distribution of bulge MSPs and incorporate dispersion measure estimates of the MSPs' distances. We find that the elongated boxy bulge morphology means that some the bulge MSPs are closer to us and so easier to resolve. We identify three resolved MSPs that have significant probabilities of belonging to the bulge population.

The effects of ethanol on short-term and long-term memory in Caenorhabditis elegans
Creators: name: Butterfield, Michael
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: In this thesis I have used the model organism Caenorhabditis elegans to investigate the effects of ethanol exposure on learning and memory. In the first part of this thesis I identified how ethanol affects the formation of long-term memory for habituation training. I administered ethanol during long-term memory training and found that high doses of ethanol significantly impair the formation of long-term memory. Next, I examined if ethanol was having an effect on the kinetics of short-term habituation and I found that ethanol exposure significantly altered the rate of habituation when stimuli were administered at longer interstimulus intervals (ISI) but was relatively unaffected at shorter ISIs. Interestingly, we found that the effect of ethanol on long-term memory formation was dissociable from the impairments on the rate of habituation and was not a state-dependent nor context-dependent deficit. Further, increased tolerance to ethanol did not rescue this deficit in memory formation and ethanol exposure did not disrupt previously formed memories. Since glutamatergic neurotransmission has been shown to be disrupted by ethanol exposure and the role of glr-1, a non-NMDA-type glutamate receptor subunit, in long-term memory for habituation has been extensively researched, I investigated whether the effects of ethanol on long-term memory formation involves gIr-1. Using a transgenic strain of worms that has GLR-1 tagged with a green fluorescent protein (GLR-1::GFP) I found that ethanol exposure results in an increase in the amount GLR-1: :GFP along the posterior ventral nerve cord. Further, 24 hrs following habituation training, trained unexposed worms show decreased levels of GLR-1::GFP while ethanol exposed trained worms are not significantly different from control groups. This result suggests that ethanol exposure not only causes increases in the level of GLR-1::GFP but also causes changes in glr-1 regulation that is normally associated with memory formation. In this thesis I have demonstrated that C. elegans is an ideal model system in which to study the effects of ethanol on learning and memory and have uncovered some important mechanisms mediating these effects.
title: Matter in motion: The problem of activity in seventeenth-century English matter theory
Creators: name: Henry, John Christopher
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1983

description: This thesis considers some of the ways in which leading seventeenth-century English mechanical philosophers tried to account for the various motions of matter which played such a fundamental role in their philosophies. It argues that the Cartesian mechanical philosophy, in which matter is considered to be completely passive and inert and the amount of motion in the universe is constant (being merely transmitted and transferred by impacts), gained no full committed adherents in England. Only Thomas Hobbes tried to develop a similarly 'strict' mechanical system based on a concept of passive matter and his system completely failed to win support. All the other major thinkers examined in this study either show a marked tendency towards a belief in a concept of active matter or include in their systems some kind of physical principle capable of activating matter. After the Introduction, in which the scope of the enquiry is delineated, Chapter 1 argues that the mechanical philosophers attempt to explain everything in terms of 'matter in motion' presented them with the metaphysical problems of defining matter and accounting for its motions. Subsequent chapters show the ways in which Hobbes, Sir Kenelm Digby, Walter Charleton, Henry More, Robert Boyle, Robert Hooke, Sir William Petty and Isaac Newton tried to account for the motions and other activities of matter. In the Conclusion it is reasserted that the concept of passive inert matter was never a major feature of seventeenth-century mechanical philosophy. This thesis also addresses itself to recent historiographical trends about the extra-scientific origins of the Scientific Revolution in seventeenth-century England. In particular it considers the attempts by recent commentators to show that a dichotomy between 'strict' mechanists who believed in passive matter and those who believed in active matter was merely a reflection of widely differing religio-political views: Anglican-conservative on the one hand and Sectarian-radical on the other. It is argued that these historiographical positions are inadequate because they are based on false assumptions about the nature of seventeenth-century matter theory.

description: The orbits and physical parameters of three detached F and G-type eclipsing binaries have been derived combining Hipparcos H(P) photometry with 8480-8740 Ang ground-based spectroscopy, simulating the photometric+spectroscopic observations that the GAIA mission will obtain. Tycho B(T) and V(T) light curves are too noisy to be modeled for the three targets, and only mean Tycho colors are retained to constrain the temperature. No previous combined photometric+spectroscopic solution exists in literature for any of the three targets. Quite remarkably, CN Lyn turned out to be an equal masses F5 triple system. Distances from the orbital solutions agree within the astrometric error with the Hipparcos parallaxes.

description: Ronald Akers, PhD, is Emeritus Professor, Criminology and Law, at the University of Florida and Professor, Criminology and Sociology at the University of South Florida. Dr. Akers earned his PhD in Sociology from the University of Kentucky. Virtually every criminology graduate student in the United States and Europe will read Dr. Ronald Akers’ text, Deviant Behavior: A Social Learning Approach. Every criminology textbook discusses his theoretical and empirical work on social learning theory. His book Drugs, Alcohol and Society has become the mainstay for social science understanding of the interplay between alcohol and drug usage and broader societal issues, and his Criminological Theories: Introduction and Evaluation represents the most complete overview of major criminological theories available today. Widely recognized as one of the top criminologists in the world today, Akers is also a dedicated teacher on both the undergraduate and graduate levels and a consummate scholar dedicated to original research and development of intellectual content that is at the leading edge of his field. Over the past three decades, he has proposed, developed, revised and tested his social learning theory of crime and deviance in several different research settings. Social learning has become one of the principal explanations of criminal and deviant behavior in the literature, and in recent years has been the first or second most frequently tested theory by criminological researchers and scholars. The major recent product of his work on the theory is the 1998 publication of Social Learning and Social Structure, which reviews the development of social learning theory, critiques of it, and its empirical validity, and also offers a new integrated theoretical model of social structure and social process in crime and deviance. This 420-page treatise has been described as “a capstone book” for his career.
