title: Decolonising African costume and textiles: Naming, symbols and meaning in the Ghanaian context
Creators: name: Tordzro, Naa Densua

Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: Decolonisation, influence of colonisation, African indigenous costume, Fashion curriculum.

description: This MPhil research is concerned with decolonising African textiles, in particular Ghanaian cloth and wax prints. It focuses on the uses, significance and meaning of designs and patterns in most of the Ghanaian indigenous textiles such as Kente, Adinkra, Tie and Dye, wax and roller prints made in Ghana. It does so in order to explore the relationship between colonisation, past and present day, the cultural and manufacturing history and naming of prints, and the changes that have occurred in designs and names. It examines how designs in the cloth are named within prevailing social concepts, contexts and trends, and the various ways in which Ghanaian practitioners, including myself as a practitioner, visualize and articulate ideas and experiences through these cloths. It also examines how multinational cultural appropriation has affected the naming systems in Ghana. Through a survey of existing literature and through my practice of working with oral traditions of textiles and garment making I show that Ghanaian textiles provide symbolic expressions of wealth and status, positionality in society, as well as communicating thoughts, mood, feelings, state of mind and perceptions about the social world and beliefs of the people who use them. I show how textiles are also a source of information that offer meaning and interpretation to some aspects of Ghanaian social and cultural life. The evidence of this is found in textiles such as wax and roller prints, Kente and Adinkra cloth with wide-ranging patterns and names in Ghana. I evidence this in the second half of the thesis through the cataloguing and curation of cloth patterns and names, and the use of proverbs in cloth design, emphasising the role played by market traders in the naming and design of cloth. Finally, I offer a case study by way of an accompanying online exhibition of my ways of working through practiced based method and decolonising the methods of teaching and learning in disadvantaged communities such as Dodowa, Ghana, with western models, and with museum art works in Glasgow, Scotland. This written thesis provides the explanatory foundation for my work in the online exhibition. The exhibition, however, stands alone.

description: The electronic structure problem is one of the main problems in modern theoretical chemistry. While there are many already-established methods both for the problem itself and its applications like semi-classical or quantum dynamics, it remains a computationally demanding task, effectively limiting the size of solved problems. Fortunately, it seems, that offloading some parts of the computation to Quantum Processing Units may offer significant speed-up, often referred to as quantum supremacy or quantum advantage. Together with the potential advantage, this approach simultaneously presents several problems, most notably naturally occurring quantum decoherence, hereafter denoted as quantum noise and lack of large-scale quantum computers, making it necessary to focus on Noisy-Intermediate Scale Quantum computers when developing algorithms aspiring to near-term applications. SA-OO-VQE package aims to answer both these problems with its hybrid quantum-classical conception based on a typical Variational Quantum Eigensolver approach, as only a part of the algorithm utilizes offload to QPUs and the rest is performed on a classical computer, thus partially avoiding both quantum noise and the lack of quantum bits. The SA-OO-VQE has the ability to treat degenerate (or quasi-degenerate) states on the same footing, thus avoiding known numerical optimization problems arising in state-specific approaches around avoided crossings or conical intersections.

Stakeholder Engagement

description: This document reports on the engagement activities undertaken in the EOSCpilot project and highlights good examples of engagement per stakeholder category. Intentional overlaps exist in certain categories, because a need for interconnection and active dialogue between stakeholder categories was identified early on as a significant issue for successful engagement. This report details the outcomes of the engagement activities throughout the project, following the structure of D8.2 Stakeholder Identification & Engagement Strategy Plan. It provides best practices of engagement by Stakeholder Group, as initially identified and mapped in the first period of the project. The report concludes with a set of recommendations for engagement of the EOSC stakeholder groups after the end of the EOSCpilot project.

description: We study the mass spectra for the $cc\bar c\bar c$ and $bb\bar b\bar b$ tetraquark states by developing a moment sum rule method. Our results show that the $bb\bar b\bar b$ tetraquarks lie below the threshold of $η_b(1S)η_b(1S)$. They are probably stable and very narrow. The masses for the doubly hidden-charm states $cc\bar c\bar c$ are higher than the spontaneous dissociation thresholds of two charmonium mesons. We suggest to search for such states in the $J/ψJ/ψ$ and $η_c(1S)η_c(1S)$ channels.

description: With electron beam durations down to femtoseconds and sub-femtoseconds achievable in current state-of-the-art accelerators, longitudinal bunch length diagnostics with resolution at the attosecond level are required. In this paper, we present such a novel measurement device which combines a high power laser modulator with an RF deflecting cavity in the orthogonal direction. While the laser applies a strong correlated angular modulation to a beam, the RF deflector ensures the full resolution of this streaking effect across the bunch hence recovering the temporal beam profile with sub-femtosecond resolution. Preliminary measurements to test the key components of this concept were carried out at the Accelerator Test Facility (ATF) at Brookhaven National Laboratory recently, the results of which are presented and discussed here. Moreover, a possible application of the technique for novel accelerator schemes is examined based on simulations with the particle-tracking code elegant and our beam profile reconstruction tool.

description: Irradiation with high-energy particles has recently emerged as an effective tool for tailoring the properties of two-dimensional transition metal dichalcogenides. In order to carry out an atomically-precise manipulation of the lattice, a detailed understanding of the beam-induced events occurring at the atomic scale is necessary. Here, we investigate the response of $1T'$-MoS$_2$ to the electron irradiation by $ab$ $initio$ molecular dynamics means. Our simulations suggest that an electron beam with energy smaller than 75 keV does not result in any knock-on damage. The displacement threshold energies are different for the two nonequivalent sulfur atoms in $1T'$-MoS$_2$ and strongly depend on whether the top or bottom chalcogen layer is considered. As a result, a careful tuning of the beam energy can promote the formation of ordered defects in the sample. We further discuss the effect of the electron irradiation in the neighborhood of a defective site, the mobility of the sulfur vacancies created and their tendency to aggregate. Overall, our work provides useful guidelines for the imaging and the defect engineering of $1T'$-MoS$_2$ using electron microscopy.

description: Although coherent manipulation of electronic states can be achieved in quantum dot (QD) devices by harnessing nanofabrication tools, it is often hard to fathom the extent to which these nanoelectronic devices can behave quantum mechanically. Witnessing their nonclassical nature would thus remain of paramount importance in the emerging world of quantum technologies, since the coherent dynamics of electronic states plays there a crucial role. Against this backdrop, we resort to the general framework of Leggett-Garg inequalities (LGI) as it allows for distinguishing the classical and quantum transport through nanostructures by way of various two-time correlation functions. Using the local charge detection at two different time, we investigate here theoretically whether any quantum violation of the original LGI exists with varying device configurations and parameters under both Markovian and non-Markovian dynamics. Two-time correlators within LGI are derived in terms of the non-equilibrium Green's functions (NEGFs) by exactly solving the quantum Langevin equations. The present study of non-Markovian dynamics of quantum systems interacting with reservoirs is significant for understanding the relaxation phenomenon in the ultrafast transient regime to especially mimic what happens to high-speed quantum devices. We can potentially capture the effect of finite reservoir correlation time by accounting for level broadening at the electrodes along with non-Markovian memory effects. Furthermore, the large bias restriction is no longer imposed in our calculations so that we can safely consider a finite bias between the electronic reservoirs. Our approach is likely to open up new possibilities of witnessing the quantumness for other quantum many-body systems as well that are driven out of the equilibrium.

description: We propose a schematic model of nucleons moving in spin--orbit partner levels, $j=l\pm{\sfrac12}$, to explain Gamow--Teller and two-nucleon transfer data in $N=Z$ nuclei above $^{40}$Ca. Use of the $LS$ coupling scheme provides a more transparent approach to interpret the structure and reaction data.We apply the model to the analysis of charge-exchange, $^{42}$Ca($^3$He,t)$^{42}$Sc, and np-transfer, $^{40}$Ca($^3$He,p)$^{42}$Sc, reactions data to define the elementary modes of excitation in terms of both isovector and isoscalar pairs, whose properties can be determined by adjusting the parameters of the model (spin--orbit splitting, isovector pairing strength and quadrupole matrix element) to the available data. The overall agreement with experiment suggests that the approach captures the main physics ingredients and provides the basis for a boson approximation that can be extended to heavier nuclei. Our analysis also reveals that the SU(4)-symmetry limit is not realized in $^{42}$Sc.

description: HST F555W and F814W photometry of a portion of the WLM galaxy are presented. The distance modulus is determined via fitting of the entire color-magnitude diagram to be (m-M)_0 = 24.88 +/- 0.09, which is consistent with the RGB tip distance. The galaxy's measurable star formation history appears to have begun no more than 12 Gyr ago, with about half of WLM's total star formation (by mass) formed before 9 Gyr ago. The star formation rate gradually decreased, until a recent increase in activity starting between 1 and 2.5 Gyr ago. This is still continuing to the present time, and is concentrated in the bar of the galaxy, as shown by the difference in recent star formation rates in the three WF chips.

description: The role of D5.1 is to transform the user requirements posed by D1.1 and the scenarios described in D6.1 into a unified and sound technical blueprint. The user requirements have been studied and classified into categories that allows for their correlation and their positioning in an inter-dependency graph. The additional user requirements that were not foreseen in the Grant Agreement have been added to the overall plan. Third party software libraries are selected and inserted into the overall architecture of the system. A technical design with a topology of servers and services is proposed, and it will be used as a blueprint for the implementation of the system. Apart from the partners involved in the project, we have collaborated with Speckle Systems, an EU company that offers a platform that achieves asynchronous collaboration for several AEC disciplines across the most popular onscreen CAD, CAE and BIM software via a common web-based database. Towards this end, PrismArch is developing and integrating a VR solution with the help of Mindesk in the pipeline of Speckle so that VR can be also a ubiquitous real-time synchronous design and collaboration tool.
Compton Scattering by a Pion and off--Shell Effects

description: We consider Compton scattering by a pion in the framework of chiral perturbation theory. We investigate off--shell effects in the s-- and u--channel pole diagrams. For that purpose we perform a field transformation which, in comparison with the standard Gasser and Leutwyler Lagrangian, generates additional terms at order $p^4$ proportional to the lowest--order equation of motion. As a result of the equivalence theorem the two Lagrangians predict the same Compton scattering S--matrix even though they generate different off--shell form factors. We conclude that off--shell effects are not only model--dependent but also representation--dependent.

Statistics of Dark Matter Halos from Gravitational Lensing

Year: 1999
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We present a new approach to measure the mass function of dark matter halos and to discriminate models with differing values of Omega through weak gravitational lensing. We measure the distribution of peaks from simulated lensing surveys and show that the lensing signal due to dark matter halos can be detected for a wide range of peak heights. Even when the signal-to-noise is well below the limit for detection of individual halos, projected halo statistics can be constrained for halo masses spanning galactic to cluster halos. The use of peak statistics relies on an analytical model of the noise due to the intrinsic ellipticities of source galaxies. The noise model has been shown to accurately describe simulated data for a variety of input ellipticity distributions. We show that the measured peak distribution has distinct signatures of gravitational lensing, and its non-Gaussian shape can be used to distinguish models with different values of Omega. The use of peak statistics is complementary to the measurement of field statistics, such as the ellipticity correlation function, and possibly not susceptible to the same systematic errors.

description: We study pseudoscalar $π$, $K$ and $η$ meson properties, such as masses and couplings, in dense matter at zero temperature. We use a recently proposed phenomenological quark model, known as the PNJL0, which takes into account the confinement/deconfinement phase transition by means of the traced Polyakov loop ($Φ$) which serves as an order parameter at zero temperature. We consider two different scenarios, namely, symmetric quark matter with equal chemical potentials for all the flavors, and the beta equilibrated matter. In the latter case the hadron-quark phase transition is implemented by a two model approach. For the hadron side we use a relativistic mean-field model with density dependent couplings. We show that $Φ$ induces abrupt changes in the mesons properties with gap sizes regulated by the phenomenological gluonic sector of the model.

description: We consider multi-task learning, which simultaneously learns related prediction tasks, to improve generalization performance. We factorize a coefficient matrix as the product of two matrices based on a low-rank assumption. These matrices have sparsities to simultaneously perform variable selection and learn and overlapping group structure among the tasks. The resulting bi-convex objective function is minimized by alternating optimization where sub-problems are solved using alternating direction method of multipliers and accelerated proximal gradient descent. Moreover, we provide the performance bound of the proposed method. The effectiveness of the proposed method is validated for both synthetic and real-world datasets.

description: Real-time mapping and navigation is a challenging task for robotics, which has been significantly mitigated by the introduction of real-time depth sensors. This thesis presents methods for calibrating sensor data and improving alignment accuracy of overlapping 3D models. Additionally, in an effort to complement the ability of the sensor, machine learning approaches were developed that could estimate depth using only the colour information. Several state-of-the-art approaches to estimate depth from colour were created, and novel training strategies used to improve accuracy and speed. The hope is, one day these systems could remove the need for expensive specialised sensors.

description: We observe strong dynamical suppression of optically induced loss in a weakly interacting Fermi gas as the $s$-wave scattering length is increased. The single, cigar-shaped cloud behaves as a large spin lattice in energy space with a tunable Heisenberg Hamiltonian. The loss suppression occurs as the lattice transitions into a magnetized state, where the fermionic nature of the atoms inhibits interactions. The data are quantitatively explained by incorporating spin-dependent loss into a quasi-classical collective spin vector model, the success of which enables the application of optical control of effective long-range interactions to this system.

description: A comprehensive understanding of the organizational principles in the human brain requires, among other factors, well-quantifiable descriptors of nerve fiber architecture. Three-dimensional polarized light imaging (3D-PLI) is a microscopic imaging technique that enables insights into the fine-grained organization of myelinated nerve fibers with high resolution. Descriptors characterizing the fiber architecture observed in 3D-PLI would enable downstream analysis tasks such as multimodal correlation studies, clustering, and mapping. However, best practices for observer-independent characterization of fiber architecture in 3D-PLI are not yet available. To this end, we propose the application of a fully data-driven approach to characterize nerve fiber architecture in 3D-PLI images using self-supervised representation learning. We introduce a 3D-Context Contrastive Learning (CL-3D) objective that utilizes the spatial neighborhood of texture examples across histological brain sections of a 3D reconstructed volume to sample positive pairs for contrastive learning. We combine this sampling strategy with specifically designed image augmentations to gain robustness to typical variations in 3D-PLI parameter maps. The approach is demonstrated for the 3D reconstructed occipital lobe of a vervet monkey brain. We show that extracted features are highly sensitive to different configurations of nerve fibers, yet robust to variations between consecutive brain sections arising from histological processing. We demonstrate their practical applicability for retrieving clusters of homogeneous fiber architecture and performing data mining for interactively selected templates of specific components of fiber architecture such as U-fibers.

description: The April 1997 giant flare of Mkn 501 is modelled by a stationary Synchrotron-Proton-Blazar model. Our derived model parameters are consistent with X-ray-to-TeV-data in the flare state and diffusive shock acceleration of electron and proton in a Kolmogorov/Kraichnan turbulence sprectrum. While the emerging pair-synchrotron cascade spectra initiated by photons from neutral pi-decay and electrons from pi+- --> mu+- --> e+- decay turn out to be relatively featureless, muon and proton synchrotron radiation and their cascade radiation produce a double-humped spectral energy distribution. For the present model we find proton synchrotron radiation to dominate the TeV emission, while the contribution from the synchrotron radiation of the pairs, produced by the high energy hump, is only minor.

description: An accumulating body of literature has emerged in the past 25 years to show that Parkinson’s disease (PD) is not only a disorder of the brain but also of the gastrointestinal tract and more generally of the gut-brain axis. Gastrointestinal symptoms occur in almost every PD patient at some point and in nearly every case examined pathologically autopsy studies find alpha-synuclein deposits, the pathological hallmarks of PD, in the enteric nervous system. This concept of ‘enteric synucleinopathy’ led to the hypothesis that the enteric nervous system might play a pivotal role in the initiation and spreading of PD. Although this hypothesis opens up interesting perspectives on the pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders, some important questions are still pending. The present opinion paper describes and compares the physiological and pathophysiological properties of alpha-synuclein in the brain and the enteric nervous system. We conclude that the existing data supports the existence of pathological alpha-synuclein species in the gut in PD. We also discuss if gut-brain interactions are important in other neurodegenerative disorders.

On the relation between the fermion pole mass and MSbar Yukawa coupling in the standard model

description: We present the full one-loop correction to the relation between the running MSbar Yukawa coupling, $\overline h_f(μ)$, at some renormalization scale, $μ$, and the pole mass, $m_f$, of a fermion, $f$, in the standard model. Our result complements previous analyses that included just the QCD correction to this relation in the case of quarks. This allows us to convert, without loss of information, the threshold value, $\overline h_f(m_f)$, of $\overline h_f(μ)$, which satisfies a renormalization-group equation and may be driven up to some high-energy scale of new physics, to physical observables at low energy. We investigate the limit of the Higgs boson and/or the top quark being much heavier than all the other particles. We also list simple and yet rather precise approximation formulae, which are convenient for applications.

description: Observations of air showers with the stereoscopic HEGRA IACT system are usually carried out in a mode where all telescopes point in the same direction. Alternatively, one could take into account the finite distance to the shower maximum and orient the telescopes such that their optical axes intersect at the average height of the shower maximum. In this paper we show that this ``convergent observation mode'' is advantageous for the observation of extended sources and for surveys, based on a small data set taken with the HEGRA telescopes operated in this mode.

description: Deep Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs) are widespread, efficient tools of visual recognition. In this paper, we present a comparative study of three popular pre-trained CNN models: AlexNet, VGG-16 and VGG-19. We address the problem of palmprint identification in low-quality imagery and apply Support Vector Machines (SVMs) with all of the compared models. For the comparison, we use the MOHI palmprint image database whose images are characterized by low contrast, shadows, and varying illumination, scale, translation and rotation. Another, high-quality database called COEP is also considered to study the recognition gap between high-quality and low-quality imagery. Our experiments show that the deeper pre-trained CNN models, e.g., VGG-16 and VGG-19, tend to extract highly distinguishable features that recognize low-quality palmprints more efficiently than the less deep networks such as AlexNet. Furthermore, our experiments on the two databases using various models demonstrate that the features extracted from lower-level fully connected layers provide higher recognition rates than higher-layer features. Our results indicate that different pre-trained models can be efficiently used in touchless identification systems with low-quality palmprint images.

Implications of Horizontal Symmetries on Baryon Number Violation in Supersymmetric Models

description: The smallness of the quark and lepton parameters and the hierarchy between them could be the result of selection rules due to a horizontal symmetry broken by a small parameter. The same selection rules apply to baryon number violating terms. Consequently, the problem of baryon number violation in Supersymmetry may be solved naturally, without invoking any especially-designed extra symmetry. This mechanism is efficient enough even for low-scale flavor physics. Proton decay is likely to be dominated by the modes $K^+\barν_i$ or $K^0μ^+(e^+)$, and may proceed at observable rates.

description: ASCA observed the central region of the Small Magellanic Cloud, and found a hard X-ray source, AX J0051-733, at the position of the ROSAT source RX J0050.8-7316, which has an optical counterpart of a Be star. Coherent X-ray pulsations of 323.1 +/- 0.3 s were discovered from AX J0051-733. The pulse profile shows several sub-peaks in the soft (0.7-2.0 keV) X-ray band, but becomes nearly sinusoidal in the harder (2.0-7.0 keV) X-ray band. The X-ray spectrum was found to be hard, and is well fitted by a power-law model with a photon index of 1.0 +/- 0.4. The long-term flux history was examined with the archival data of Einstein observatory and ROSAT; a flux variability with a factor > 10 was found.

Development of dark disk model of positron anomaly origin

description: Dark disk model could be a remedy for dark matter (DM) explanation of positron anomaly (PA) in cosmic rays (CR). The main difficulty in PA explanation relates to cosmic gamma-radiation which is inevitably produced in DM annihilation or decay leading to tension with respective observation data. Introduction of "active" (producing CR) DM component concentrating in galactic disk alleviates this tension. Earlier we considered two-lepton modes, with branching ratios being chosen to fit in the best way all the observation data. Here we considered, in framework of the same dark disk model, two cases: two-body final state annihilation and four-body one, and in each case a quark mode is added to the leptonic ones. It is shown that 4-body mode case is a little better than 2-body one from viewpoint of quality of observation data description at the fixed all other parameters (of CR propagation, background, disk height). The values of DM particle mass around 350 GeV and 500 GeV are more favourable for 2- and 4-body modes respectively. Higher values would improve description of data on positrons only but accounting for data on gamma-radiation prevents it because of unwanted more abundant high-energy gamma production. Inclusion of the quark modes improves a little fitting data in both 4- and 2-body mode cases, contrary to naive expectations. In fact, quark mode has a bigger gammas yield than that of most gamma-productive leptonic mode~--- tau, but they are softer due to bigger final state hadron multiplicity.

description: We study the energy correlation of charged leptons produced in the decay of a heavy Higgs particle $H\to t\bar t\to bl^+ν_l\bar bl^-\barν_l$ and $H\to W^+W^-\to l^+ν_ll^-\barν_l.$ The possible influence of $CP$--violation in the $Ht\bar t$ and $HW^+W^-$ vertices on the energy spectrum of the secondary leptons is analyzed. The energy distribution of the charged leptons in the decay $H\to W^+W^-\to l^+ν_ll^-\barν_l$ is sensitive to the $CP$--parity of the Higgs particle and yields a simple criterion for distinguishing scalar Higgs from pseudoscalar Higgs.

description: Acute Coronary Syndrome (ACS) encompasses a spectrum of clinical conditions ranging from unstable angina to myocardial infarction with or without ST-segment elevation. ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (STEMI) occurs due to complete occlusion of a coronary artery, leading to transmural ischemia, which is reflected by ST-segment elevation on the ECG. In contrast, Non-ST-Elevation Myocardial Infarction (NSTEMI) is usually associated with subtotal coronary occlusion, resulting in subendocardial ischemia and ST-segment depression or T-wave inversion.This study evaluates the effectiveness of different ICU treatment protocols for ACS patients. A total of 87 patients were studied, divided into two groups based on ECG changes. Group A included STEMI patients, while Group B included NSTEMI patients. Standard biomarkers such as Troponin I and T, along with echocardiography and clinical monitoring, were utilized to assess outcomes. This paper provides comparative data on the efficacy of specific pharmacological protocols and their influence on cardiac recovery and prognosis.

description: We explore the physics of the parton-hadron duality in the nucleon structure functions appearing in lepton-nucleon scattering. We stress that the duality allows one to extract the higher-twist matrix elements from data in the resonance region, and learn about the properties of resonances if these matrix elements are known. As an example, we construct the moments of $F_2(x, Q^2)$ for the low and medium $Q^2$ region, and from which we study the interplay between higher twists and the resonance contributions.

Interactions of twisted $Ω$-loops in a model solar convection zone

description: This study aims at investigating the ability of strong interactions between magnetic field concentrations during their rise through the convection zone to produce complex active regions at the solar surface. To do so, we perform numerical simulations of buoyant magnetic structures evolving and interacting in a model solar convection zone. We first produce a 3D model of rotating convection and then introduce idealized magnetic structures close to the bottom of the computational domain. These structures possess a certain degree of field line twist and they are made buoyant on a particular extension in longitude. The resulting twisted $Ω$-loops will thus evolve inside a spherical convective shell possessing large-scale mean flows. We present results on the interaction between two such loops with various initial parameters (mainly buoyancy and twist) and on the complexity of the emerging magnetic field. In agreement with analytical predictions, we find that if the loops are introduced with opposite handedness and same axial field direction or same handedness but opposite axial field, they bounce against each other. The emerging region is then constituted of two separated bipolar structures. On the contrary, if the loops are introduced with the same direction of axial and peripheral magnetic fields and if sufficiently close, they merge while rising. This more interesting case produces complex magnetic structures, with a high degree of non-neutralized currents, especially when the convective motions act significantly on the magnetic field. This indicates that those interactions could be good candidates to produce eruptive events like flares or CMEs.
