description: The European Research Council has recently funded HOLMES, a project with the aim of performing a calorimetric measurement of the electron neutrino mass measuring the energy released in the electron capture decay of 163Ho. The baseline for HOLMES are microcalorimeters coupled to Transition Edge Sensors (TESs) read out with rf-SQUIDs, for microwave multiplexing purposes. A promising alternative solution is based on superconducting microwave resonators, that have undergone rapid development in the last decade. These detectors, called Microwave Kinetic Inductance Detectors (MKIDs), are inherently multiplexed in the frequency domain and suitable for even larger-scale pixel arrays, with theoretical high energy resolution and fast response. The aim of our activity is to develop arrays of microresonator detectors for X-ray spectroscopy and suitable for the calorimetric measurement of the energy spectra of 163Ho. Superconductive multilayer films composed by a sequence of pure Titanium and stoichiometric TiN layers show many ideal properties for MKIDs, such as low loss, large sheet resistance, large kinetic inductance, and tunable critical temperature $T_c$. We developed Ti/TiN multilayer microresonators with $T_c$ within the range from 70 mK to 4.5 K and with good uniformity. In this contribution we present the design solutions adopted, the fabrication processes and the characterization results.

description: We model the response of a state of the art micro-hole single-stage charge amplication device (`microbulk' Micromegas) in a gaseous atmosphere consisting of Xenon/trimethylamine at various concentrations and pressures. The amplifying structure, made with photo-lithographic techniques similar to those followed in the fabrication of gas electron multipliers (GEMs), consisted of a 100 um-side equilateral-triangle pattern with 50 um-diameter holes placed at its vertexes. Once the primary electrons are guided into the holes by virtue of an optimized field configuration, avalanches develop along the 50 um-height channels etched out of the original doubly copper-clad polyimide foil. In order to properly account for the strong field gradients at the holes' entrance as well as for the fluctuations of the avalanche process (that ultimately determine the achievable energy resolution), we abandoned the hydrodynamic framework, resorting to a purely microscopic description of the electron trajectories as obtained from elementary cross-sections. We show that achieving a satisfactory description needs additional assumptions about atom-molecule (Penning) transfer reactions and charge recombination to be made.

description: Background-In Ayurveda, excess intake of Kaphaja diet causes diminished digestive fire (Mandagni) results in abnormal formation of fat tissues (Medo Dhatu) which obstructs the small channels of the body (Strotas) by blocking Vata Dosha therefore Vata aggravates and moves back to stomach (Pakvashaya) exciting the digestive fire (Agni) requiring frequent meals, this vicious cycle continues causing diminished digestive fire (Medoroga). In modern medicine, we can correlate Medoroga with Dyslipidemia. Dyslipidaemia is a disorder of lipoprotein metabolism characterised by lipoprotein overproduction or deficiency evidenced by an increase in serum total cholesterol, LDL, and triglycerides, as well as a decrease in HDL. Bio-purificatory treatment (Panchakarma Chikitsa) is a prime treatment modality mentioned in ayurveda for such diseases. Scrapping enema therapy (Lekhan Basti) is one of the Panchakarma procedures that counter the Medoroga at the cellular level and have been a standard treatment modality in practices of ayurvedic panchakarma. Our objective is to compare the efficacy of modified Mushkakadi basti and Lekhan Basti on objective parameters of dyslipidaemia.Method- A total of 60 patients will be enrolled and divided randomly into 2 equal groups. In Group A (Control) Lekhan Basti will be done for eight days. In Group B (Interventional) modified Mushkakadi basti will be done for eight days. Changes in the objective parameters, i.e., serum cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL, LDL, VLDL will be observed and recorded.Expected result: The result will be assessed on the baseline of objective parameters, and data will be compared after the treatment. Results and conclusion will be drawn according to the data obtained in case registration and follow up forms.

description: Little has been written concerning the unique challenges that artists' archives pose to  collecting institutions. The varied content and physical formats found in these collections  resist easy classification and defy the traditional institutional boundaries of both archives  and art museums. This study investigates issues and current professional practices  regarding the collection and management of artists' archives by art museums and archival  institutions. It presents the results of interviews conducted with professionals from the  Ackland Art Museum at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill; the Sallie  Bingham Center for Women's History and Culture at Duke University; and the Getty  Research Institute Special Collections. Interview results are presented individually and  then discussed according to issues of acquisition, classification, processing, exhibition,  and storage and preservation of artists' archives. Professional values regarding the  institutional contexts and research potential of artworks, artifacts, and visual records are  also discussed.

description: The application of adiabatic protocols in quantum technologies is severely limited by environmental sources of noise and decoherence. Shortcuts to adiabaticity by counterdiabatic driving constitute a powerful alternative that speed up time-evolution while mimicking adiabatic dynamics. Here we present the first experimental implementation of counterdiabatic driving in a continuous variable system, a shortcut to the adiabatic transport of a trapped ion in the phase space. The resulting dynamics is equivalent to a "fast-motion video" of the adiabatic trajectory. The robustness of this protocol is shown to surpass that of competing schemes based on classical local controls and Fourier optimization methods. Our results demonstrate that shortcuts to adiabaticity provide a robust speedup of quantum protocols of wide applicability in quantum technologies.

description: This study's purpose is to gain a better understanding of the role of the academic library in the overall collegiate experience of undergraduate students. Ten undergraduate students at Duke University were interviewed regarding their use of Lilly Library, a branch library with a primarily undergraduate clientele. Their responses were coded and analyzed to determine trends in their use of and attitudes toward the library. By examining why and how students use the library as an academic and community space in ways that are not necessarily observable by librarians, the profession can better meet the needs of this important user group.

description: We present time-resolved and phase-resolved variability studies of an extensive X-ray high-resolution spectral dataset of the $δ$ Orionis Aa binary system. The four observations, obtained with Chandra ACIS HETGS, have a total exposure time of ~479 ks and provide nearly complete binary phase coverage. Variability of the total X-ray flux in the range 5-25 $Å$ is confirmed, with maximum amplitude of about +/-15% within a single ~125 ks observation. Periods of 4.76d and 2.04d are found in the total X-ray flux, as well as an apparent overall increase in flux level throughout the 9-day observational campaign. Using 40 ks contiguous spectra derived from the original observations, we investigate variability of emission line parameters and ratios. Several emission lines are shown to be variable, including S XV, Si XIII, and Ne IX. For the first time, variations of the X-ray emission line widths as a function of the binary phase are found in a binary system, with the smallest widths at phase=0.0 when the secondary $δ$ Orionis Aa2 is at inferior conjunction. Using 3D hydrodynamic modeling of the interacting winds, we relate the emission line width variability to the presence of a wind cavity created by a wind-wind collision, which is effectively void of embedded wind shocks and is carved out of the X-ray-producing primary wind, thus producing phase-locked X-ray variability.

description: Library Science literature on the subject of library censorship has revealed much about the processes and statistics dealing with the attempts of community members to censor various sources in library collections, as well as the traditional methods that institutions have employed to cope with these attempts. This study describes how the professional outlook on library censorship has changed since the 1950's, and ways in which familiarity with user communities and their concerns can foster more trusting relationships between user and institution. It also includes data collected by the American Library Association's Office for Intellectual Freedom documenting materials challenges at North Carolina public and school libraries from 1990 to 2009, with an analysis of this data by region. The exceedingly low number of reported challenges to public libraries throughout the state during the study time frame is a notable characteristic.

Keep It or Toss It? Legislative Records Retention Practices in the U.S. House of Representatives

description: Because the records of individual Members of the House of Representatives are considered personal property, what happens to those records once a Member leaves office is up to him or her. Legislative records, particularly files and reports used to develop policy and draft bills, have historical value and are one of the types of files most used in current Congressional collections, as they point toward legislative intent. The House Records Management Manual for Members suggests that offices permanently maintain these types of files. This study reveals to what extent House offices are preserving records that provide future researchers with legislative intent, finding that while congressional staffs are not largely aware of the manual, they do attempt to preserve differing types of legislative background materials. There is a general awareness that their practices have room for improvement, but with no requirements to implement a retention schedule, there is little incentive for congressional staffs to develop better records management procedures.

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: We present an exact quantization condition for the time independent solutions (energy eigenstates) of the one-dimensional Dirac equation with a scalar potential well that gives only two `effective' turning points (defined by the roots of $V(x)+mc^2=\pm E$) for a given energy $E$ and satisfies $\min V(x)+mc^2\geq 0$. This result generalizes the previously known non-relativistic quantization formula and preserves many physically desirable symmetries, besides, attaining the correct non-relativistic limit. Numerical calculations demonstrate the utility of the formula for computing accurate energy eigenvalues.

description: Summer reading programs have become a permanent programming feature in the children's departments of public libraries. As children's services began and developed, so did the idea and practice of summer reading programs. Through an analysis of articles in Library Journal, Junior Libraries, and School Library Journal this paper traces the progress of summer reading programs from its beginnings in the 1890's until 2004. From story hours on the playground to websites with online forms, summer reading programs have endured many changes in society while remaining fairly constant in structure and administration. Keeping children reading and helping them to develop a love of reading continue to be important goals of summer reading programs. The future of youth summer reading programs will depend on their ability to be flexible and responsive to changing technology and children's interests.

description: Long range correlations are searched for by analyzing the experimental data on 16O-AgBr and 32S-AgBr collisions at 200A GeV/c and the results are compared with the predictions of a multi phase transport (AMPT) model. The findings reveal that the observed forward-backward (F-B) multiplicity correlations are mainly of short-range in nature. The range of F-B correlations are observed to extend with increasing projectile mass. The observed extended range of F-B correlations might be due to overall multiplicity fluctuations arising because of nuclear geometry. The findings are not sufficient for making any definite conclusions regarding the presence of long-range correlations.

Librarianship as a profession

description: This paper examines the use of magic as heuristic metaphor or new understanding for practice in the library field, particularly as it has recently arisen in the professional literature in response to the challenges of the digital library. Drawing on concepts from anthropology, philosophy, cultural studies, and critical theory, various types of library magic are illuminated. Ultimately, magic itself is seen to be emerging as a medial symbol to denote the ineffable qualities of the library that we experience but cannot readily or rationally explain. A magical consciousness implies new models for both the library institution and the profession of librarianship, and perhaps wholly new understandings of how library professionals might even conceive of thought and practice.

description: HI in galaxies traces the fuel for future star formation and reveals the effects of feedback on neutral gas. Using a statistically uniform, HI-selected sample of 565 galaxies from the ALFALFA H-alpha survey, we explore HI properties as a function of star formation activity. ALFALFA H-alpha provides R-band and H-alpha imaging for a volume-limited subset of the 21-cm ALFALFA survey. We identify eight starbursts based on H-alpha equivalent width and six with enhanced star formation relative to the main sequence. Both starbursts and non-starbursts have similar HI to stellar mass ratios (MHI/M*), which suggests that feedback is not depleting the starbursts' HI. Consequently, the starbursts do have shorter HI depletion times (t_dep), implying more efficient HI-to-H2 conversion. While major mergers likely drive this enhanced efficiency in some starbursts, the lowest mass starbursts may experience periodic bursts, consistent with enhanced scatter in t_dep at low M*. Two starbursts appear to be pre-coalescence mergers; their elevated MHI/M* suggest that HI-to-H2 conversion is still ongoing at this stage. By comparing with the GASS sample, we find that t_dep anti-correlates with stellar surface density for disks, while spheroids show no such trend. Among early-type galaxies, t_dep does not correlate with bulge-to-disk ratio; instead, the gas distribution may determine the star formation efficiency. Finally, the weak connection between galaxies' specific star formation rates and MHI/M* contrasts with the well-known correlation between MHI/M* and color. We show that dust extinction can explain the HI-color trend, which may arise from the relationship between M*, MHI, and metallicity.

description: We propose a way to unify two approaches of non-cloning in quantum lambda-calculi: logical and algebraic linearities. The first approach is to forbid duplicating variables, while the second is to consider all lambda-terms as algebraic-linear functions. We illustrate this idea by defining a quantum extension of first-order simply-typed lambda-calculus, where the type is linear on superposition, while allows cloning base vectors. In addition, we provide an interpretation of the calculus where superposed types are interpreted as vector spaces and non-superposed types as their basis.

The Politics of Memory and History Production of the Soviet Past in Kazakhstan (1992-2019)
Creators: name: Dukeyev, Berikbol
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2022

description: The historical events of the Soviet past in post-1991 Kazakhstan are not only a matter of revision and contestation; they are a source for resistance and for challenging the domination of the cardinal discourse in post-independence Kazakhstan. This discourse comprises a stable triangular semantic of "stability-prosperity-president," which concentrates on present-day achievements and future aspirations. I study how and why four significant turning points in the history of Soviet Kazakhstan - a) the Alash movement; b) collectivization and famine; c) World War II; and d) the 1986 Jeltoqsan demonstrations have been constructed, used, contested, and disseminated in the nexus of the politics of memory and history of Kazakhstan in the period between 1992 and 2019. I examine original data through the undertaking of archival research, analysis of text sites, and interviews with school history textbook authors and chief articulators on these turning points. In doing so, my research departs from the application of nationalism theories to study nation-building in Kazakhstan. By using the nexus of the politics of memory and history production as a conceptual framework, I challenge the instrumentalist approach to the politics of memory that assumes that construction and usage of the memory would be fundamentally different in democracies and non-democracies. My research reveals that the non-democratic case of Kazakhstan contains debates over this usage of the politics of memories that are not dissimilar to those occurring in democracies. Furthermore, I argue that contestation between the official and non-official narratives over the interpretation of these four turning points has become an avenue for the agencies of historians and textbook authors who re-think these points in the historic production process. This argument challenges previous literature that has concentrated on the unidirectional "power" wielded by political elites when addressing Kazakhstan's nation-building.

Attenuation of super-soft X-ray sources by circumstellar material

description: Recent studies have suggested the possibility of significantly obscuring super-soft X-ray sources in relatively modest amounts of local matter lost from the binaries themselves. If correct, then this would have explained the paucity of observed super-soft X-ray sources and would have significance for the search for single-degenerate type Ia supernova progenitors. We point out that earlier studies of circumbinary obscuration ignored photo-ionisations of the gas by the emission from the super-soft X-ray source. We revisit the problem using a full, self-consistent calculation of the ionisation state of the circumbinary material photo-ionised by the radiation of the central source. Our results show that the circumstellar mass-loss rates required for obcuration of super-soft X-ray sources is about an order of magnitude larger than those reported in earlier studies, for comparable model parameters. While this does not entrirely rule out the possibility of circumstellar material obscuring super-soft X-ray sources, it makes it unlikely that this effect alone can account for the majority of the missing super-soft X-ray sources. We discuss the observational appearance of hypothetical obscured nuclear burning white dwarfs and show that they have signatures making them distinct from photo-ionised nebulae around super-soft X-ray sources imbedded in the low density ISM.

description: This study describes a content analysis of reference transcripts taken from the NCknows  virtual reference service. The analysis was performed to determine why the librarians  consider some questions to be unanswerable at the time that they are submitted by users.  Transcripts were coded by a classification of question causes, by how complete the  reference interview was during the transaction, and then according to the reasons given  for ending the chat early. The analysis showed that most reference interviews were  incomplete and that the most common explanation for why the questions could not be  answered at the time was that the librarians were already busy assisting other users. The  study indicates that more North Carolina librarians should be hired to staff the service  and that librarians should make a greater effort to conduct a complete reference interview  so that more questions can be answered while the user is still online.

description: (abridged) The dust content of the universe is primarily explored via its interaction with stellar photons, producing interstellar extinction. However, owing to the physical extension of the observing beam, observations may detect scattered photons, resulting in a change in the observed (or effective) extinction, depending on the spatial distribution of the dust and the resolution of the instrument. We investigate the influence of clumpy dust distributions on effective extinction toward embedded sources and those in the diffuse ISM. We use Monte Carlo radiative transfer to examine effective extinction for various geometries. By varying the number, optical depth and volume-filling factor of clumps in models of spherical shells and the diffuse ISM, we explore the evolution of extinction. Depending on the number of scattering events in the beam, the extinction curve steepens in homogeneous media and flattens in clumpy media. As a result, clumpy dust distributions can to reproduce extinction curves with arbitrary R_v, the effective ratio of total-to-selective extinction. The flattening `washes out' the 2175 Åbump and shifts the peak to shorter wavelengths. The mean R_v of a shell correlates with the optical depth of an individual clump and the wavelength at which a clump becomes optically thick. Similar behaviour is seen for edge-on discs or tori. However, at grazing inclinations the combination of extinction and strong forward scattering results in chaotic behaviour. Caution is therefore advised when measuring extinction in, for example, AGN tori or toward SNIa or GRB afterglows. In face-on discs, the shape of the scattered continuum changes with clumpiness, however, unlike absorption features, individual features in the scattering cross-sections are preserved. Finally, we show that diffuse interstellar extinction is not modified by scattering on scales of a few kpc.

Sentiment analysis

description: This study applies sentiment analysis techniques to model the usage of speculation within a collection of financial documents. The model is trained on the MPQA corpus to extract features that correlate with speculative sentences and applied to a collection of SEC 10-K documents from a five year period. The documents with the highest amount of speculation contained a different concentration of terms compared to the entire collection, and the sentences mostly consisted of explaining potential risks concerning projects, taxes, and pensions.

Simulation of braiding anyons using Matrix Product States

description: Anyons exist as point like particles in two dimensions and carry braid statistics which enable interactions that are independent of the distance between the particles. Except for a relatively few number of models which are analytically tractable, much of the physics of anyons remain still unexplored. In this paper, we show how U(1)-symmetry can be combined with the previously proposed anyonic Matrix Product States to simulate ground states and dynamics of anyonic systems on a lattice at any rational particle number density. We provide proof of principle by studying itinerant anyons on a one dimensional chain where no natural notion of braiding arises and also on a two-leg ladder where the anyons hop between sites and possibly braid. We compare the result of the ground state energies of Fibonacci anyons against hardcore bosons and spinless fermions. In addition, we report the entanglement entropies of the ground states of interacting Fibonacci anyons on a fully filled two-leg ladder at different interaction strength, identifying gapped or gapless points in the parameter space. As an outlook, our approach can also prove useful in studying the time dynamics of a finite number of nonabelian anyons on a finite two-dimensional lattice.
description: Revised version: 20 pages, 14 captioned figures, 2 new tables. We have moved a significant amount of material concerning symmetric tensors for anyons --- which can be found in prior works --- to Appendices in order to streamline our exposition of the modified Anyonic-U(1) ansatz

description: Context. Observations of nearby star-forming regions with the Herschel Space Observatory complement our view of the protoplanetary disks in Ophiuchus with information about the outer disks. Aims. The main goal of this project is to provide new far-infrared fluxes for the known disks in the core region of Ophiuchus and to identify potential transitional disks using data from Herschel. Methods. We obtained PACS and SPIRE photometry of previously spectroscopically confirmed young stellar objects (YSO) in the region and analysed their spectral energy distributions. Results. From an initial sample of 261 objects with spectral types in Ophiuchus, we detect 49 disks in at least one Herschel band. We provide new far-infrared fluxes for these objects. One of them is clearly a new transitional disk candidate. Conclusions. The data from Herschel Space Observatory provides fluxes that complement previous infrared data and that we use to identify a new transitional disk candidate.

Program Planning--Evaluation

description: This study examines the programming opportunities made available in public libraries for children with learning disabilities in the United States. Youth Services managers and librarians of public libraries from across the country were randomly selected to participate in a web survey. Along with a review of the findings in the literature, this study presents the results of the survey, examples of successful programming events, and data on the evaluation, training, marketing, and collaboration included within these events. The survey results indicate that many libraries do not provide staff with training or best practices information for work with children with learning disabilities and other special needs; however, there is clear preference for collaboration with and learning from special education professionals within the community. Results also suggest that public librarians are aware of this population and hold strong interest in working with children with learning disabilities and special needs and their families.
Topological superconductor with a large Chern number and a large bulk excitation gap in single layer graphene

description: We show that a two-dimensional topological superconductor (TSC) can be realized in a hybrid system with a conventional $s$-wave superconductor proximity-coupled to a quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) state from the Rashba and exchange effects in single layer graphene. With very low or even zero doping near the Dirac points, i.e., two inequivalent valleys, this TSC has a Chern number as large as four, which supports four Majorana edge modes. More importantly, we show that this TSC has a robust topologically nontrivial bulk excitation gap, which can be larger or even one order of magnitude larger than the proximity-induced superconducting gap. This unique property paves a way for the application of QAH insulators as seed materials to realize robust TSCs and Majorana modes.

description: An extended study on an advanced method for the cleaning of carbon contaminations on large optical surfaces using a remote inductively coupled low pressure RF plasma source (GV10x downstream asher) is reported in this work. Technical as well as scientific features of this scaled up cleaning process are analyzed, such as the cleaning efficiency for different carbon allotropes (amorphous and diamond-like carbon) as a function of feedstock gas composition, RF power (ranging from 30 to 300W), and source-object distances (415 to 840 mm). The underlying physical phenomena for these functional dependences are discussed.

description: This paper focuses on the technological barriers mobile knowledge workers contend with in their professional activities. In conducting an exploratory study of a small group, themes emerged regarding their technological barriers that eroded their capacity for mobility, which included interacting with associates remotely, incorporating mobile technologies into the suite of professional tools, and building a portfolio of applications and services that prioritized their efficiency. My analysis is developed from concepts in Ubiquitous Computing and sociotechnical theory. By analyzing their barriers and adoptive strategies, I suggest a framework that aims to identify barriers and associate them with solutions.
