description: With an aim to examine whether the predicted solar gravitational redshift can be observationally confirmed under the influence of the convective Doppler shift due to granular motions, we attempted measuring the absolute spectral line-shifts on a large number of points over the solar disk based on an extensive set of 5188-5212A region spectra taken through an iodine-cell with the Solar Domeless Telescope at Hida Observatory. The resulting heliocentric line shifts at the meridian line (where no rotational shift exists), which were derived by finding the best-fit parameterized model spectrum with the observed spectrum and corrected for the earth's motion, turned out to be weakly position-dependent as ~ +400 m/s near the disk center and increasing toward the limb up to ~ +600 m/s (both with a standard deviation of sigma ~ 100 m/s). Interestingly, this trend tends to disappear when the convectiveshift due to granular motions (~-300 m/s at the disk center and increasing toward the limb; simulated based on the two-component model along with the empirical center-to-limb variation) is subtracted, finally resulting in the averaged shift of 698 m/s (sigma = 113 m/s). Considering the ambiguities involved in the absolute wavelength calibration or in the correction due to convective Doppler shifts (at least several tens m/s, or more likely up to

description: The excursion set approach provides a framework for predicting how the abundance of dark matter halos depends on the initial conditions. A key ingredient of this formalism comes from the physics of halo formation: the specification of a critical overdensity threshold (barrier) which protohalos must exceed if they are to form bound virialized halos at a later time. Another ingredient is statistical, as it requires the specification of the appropriate statistical ensemble over which to average when making predictions. The excursion set approach explicitly averages over all initial positions, thus implicitly assuming that the appropriate ensemble is that associated with randomly chosen positions in space, rather than special positions such as peaks of the initial density field. Since halos are known to collapse around special positions, it is not clear that the physical and statistical assumptions which underlie the excursion set approach are self-consistent. We argue that they are at least for low mass halos, and illustrate by comparing our excursion set predictions with numerical data from the DEUS simulations.

description: Nach einer Einführung in die Funktionsweise und die Zusammenhänge im öffentlichen Verkehr, erfolgt eine Bestandesaufnahme von Stadtbusbetrieben in Schweizer Städten. Durch eine Auswahl von Städten zwischen 10'000 und 60'000 Einwohnern wird die Anzahl intensiv untersuchter Stadtbussysteme eingegrenzt. Eine Gegenüberstellung von Angebotselementen und Betriebskennzahlen ermöglicht eine Bestimmung der wichtigen Einflüsse. Wiederum erweisen sich die klassischen Angebotselemente wie Bedienungshäufigkeit, Verfügbarkeit, Zugänglichkeit und Fahrpreis als Erfolgsfaktoren eines Stadtbussystems. Anhand der Einwohnerzahl einer Stadt wird mit einer einfachen Formel die zu erwartende Nachfrage abgeschätzt. In ähnlicher Weise werden die Verkehrsleistungen des Langsamverkehrs bestimmt, mit denjenigen des Stadtbusverkehrs verglichen und die Konkurrenzsituation beurteilt. Da die Nutzer des Langsamverkehrs ihr Ziel grösstenteils nach wenigen Kilometern erreichen, stellt er keine wesentliche Konkurrenz der Stadtbusse dar. Auch wenn der Anteil des Stadtbusses am öffentlichen Verkehr nur wenige Prozent beträgt, so zeigt er doch die beachtlichen Leistungen, die in diesem Verkehrssegment erbracht werden.

description: This is a continuation of the work of Arezzo-Pacard-Singer and the author on blowups of extremal Kähler manifolds. We prove the conjecture stated in [32], and we relate this result to the K-stability of blown up manifolds. As an application we prove that if a Kähler manifold M of dimension greater than 2 admits a cscK metric, then the blowup of M at a point admits a cscK metric if and only if it is K-stable, as long as the exceptional divisor is sufficiently small.

description: Real-life graphs usually have various kinds of events happening on them, e.g., product purchases in online social networks and intrusion alerts in computer networks. The occurrences of events on the same graph could be correlated, exhibiting either attraction or repulsion. Such structural correlations can reveal important relationships between different events. Unfortunately, correlation relationships on graph structures are not well studied and cannot be captured by traditional measures. In this work, we design a novel measure for assessing two-event structural correlations on graphs. Given the occurrences of two events, we choose uniformly a sample of "reference nodes" from the vicinity of all event nodes and employ the Kendall's tau rank correlation measure to compute the average concordance of event density changes. Significance can be efficiently assessed by tau's nice property of being asymptotically normal under the null hypothesis. In order to compute the measure in large scale networks, we develop a scalable framework using different sampling strategies. The complexity of these strategies is analyzed. Experiments on real graph datasets with both synthetic and real events demonstrate that the proposed framework is not only efficacious, but also efficient and scalable.

description: Recently, the spectral expansion of finite temperature two-point functions in integrable quantum field theories was constructed using a finite volume regularization technique and the application of multidimensional residues. In the present work, the original calculation is revisited. By clarifying some details in the residue evaluations, we find and correct some inaccuracies of the previous result. The final result for contributions involving no more than two particles in the intermediate states is presented. The result is verified by proving a symmetry property which follows from the general structure of the spectral expansion, and also by numerical comparison to the discrete finite volume spectral sum. A further consistency check is performed by showing that the expansion satisfies the cluster property up to the order of the evaluation.

description: The study of the transition between galactic and extragalactic cosmic rays can shed more light on the end of the Galactic cosmic rays spectrum and the beginning of the extragalactic one. Three models of transition are discussed: ankle, dip and mixed composition models. All these models describe the transition as an intersection of a steep galactic component with a flat extragalactic one. Severe bounds on these models are provided by the Standard Model of Galactic Cosmic Rays according to which the maximum acceleration energy for Iron nuclei is of the order of $E_{\rm Fe}^{\rm max} \approx 1\times 10^{17}$ eV. In the ankle model the transition is assumed at the ankle, a flat feature in the all particle spectrum which observationally starts at energy $E_a \sim (3 - 4)\times 10^{18}$ eV. This model needs a new high energy galactic component with maximum energy about two orders of magnitude above that of the Standard Model. The origin of such component is discussed. As observations are concerned there are two signatures of the transition: change of energy spectra and mass composition. In all models a heavy galactic component is changed at the transition to a lighter or proton component.

description: Le prime Dichiarazioni di indipendenza del diciottesimo secolo e la Dichiarazione universale dei diritti dell’uomo del 1948 per fondare l’uguaglianza tra tutti gli uomini si riferiscono alla loro comune natura ed in particolare a qualità come la ragione e la coscienza. La scienza ha dimostrato però che tali qualità sono presenti anche in altre specie di animali non umani come affermato dalla dichiarazione di Cambridge del 2012. Pertanto, per il principio di analogia alcuni diritti fondamentali come quello alla vita, alla libertà ed all’integrità fisica insieme a quello di vivere secondo la propria natura e nel proprio ambiente naturale per gli animali selvatici andrebbero estesi anche ad alcune categorie di animali coscienti. Nello stesso tempo vi sono delle ragioni per attribuire tali diritti agli animali indipendentemente dal rapporto di eguaglianza con l’uomo. Tali ragioni possono identificarsi nell’ordine o sistema della natura che non andrebbe alterato, nel rispetto della natura di ogni singolo animale, nella considerazione del valore inerente e non strumentale ai fini umani di ogni essere senziente. Compito del legislatore è quello di tradurre tali valori accettati dalla scienza e dalla società in principi dell’ordinamento idonei a garantire una piena tutela giuridica a tutti gli esseri senzienti non umani.

description: The research examines business relationships operating in international business networks within the engineering services industry. In particular, the research involved engineering service companies based in Australia with operations in Thailand. The relationships were examined from both an Australian and a Thai perspective, and examined the applicability of both the actors-activities-resources model (AAR) and the use of structural characteristics to analyse business relationships within this western/eastern environment. The research was conducted within an interpretative social science approach, using an in-depth interview technique for the collection of data. This allowed the researcher to develop rich information on the business relationships being examined. Data was entered into NUD.IST, qualitative data analysis software, and analysed from a cross-cultural perspective. Both the Australian and Thai perspectives of the business relationships were examined and compared for similarities and differences. The research contributed to knowledge through a deeper understanding of international business relationships within professional business services. The six contributions are: the generation of two new concepts - actor bond negative and network constraint in the AAR model; the generation of the antecedents for the substance layers of the AAR model within an Asian context; further development of the concept of a network catalyst; the development of a new description for the internationalisation process based at the firm level; the generation of the antecedents for the structural characteristics within an Asian context; and the development of definitions for the main constructs through an inter-coder reliability method.

description: The research work presented in this thesis is concerned with the computer-aided classification of breast abnormality patterns in digital mammograms to facilitate early diagnosis of breast cancer via digital mammography, a matter of great interest due to its benefits to society. A novel neural pattern characterization and classification (NPCC) technique is proposed to determine the significance of different types of features for effective classification of malignant and benign class patterns of calcification and mass type of breast abnormalities patterns in digital mammography. Grey level features, BIRADS features, patient age features and the subtlety value features have been evaluated using the proposed NPCC technique to find their significance in the classification of breast abnormality patterns. The research also explores the auto-association and classification ability of the neural network approach to achieve the maximum classification on both types of breast abnormality patterns. The proposed technique was implemented and tested on benchmark data. This provides a basis for performing comparison with previously reported results. The proposed NPCC technique attained high classification accuracy and identifies the significant types of features for consistent classification of breast abnormality patterns. The experimental results suggest that the proposed NPCC technique is promising and performs competently against the other existing techniques.

description: The development of organisms and tissues is dictated by an elaborate balance between cell division, apoptosis and differentiation: the cell population dynamics. To quantify these dynamics, we propose a phylodynamic inference approach based on single-cell lineage recorder data. Ergo, we developed a Bayesian phylogenetic framework, time-scaled developmental trees (TiDeTree), that uses lineage recorder data to estimate time-scaled single-cell trees. By implementing TiDeTree within BEAST 2, we enable joint inference of the time-scaled trees and the cell population dynamics. We validated TiDeTree using simulations and showed that performance further improves when including multiple independent sources of information into the inference, such as frequencies of editing outcomes or experimental replicates. We benchmarked TiDeTree against state-of-the-art methods and show comparable performance in terms of tree topology, plus direct assessment of uncertainty and co-estimation of additional parameters. To demonstrate TiDeTree’s use in practice, we analysed a public data set containing lineage data from approximately 100 stem cell colonies. We estimated a time-scaled phylogeny for each colony; as well as the cell division and apoptosis rates underlying the growth dynamics of all colonies. We envision that TiDeTree will find broad application in the analysis of single-cell lineage tracing data, which will improve our understanding of cellular processes during development.

description: Η ανάγκη ενός αξιόλογου επιχειρηματικού συστήματος κοστολόγησης, λόγω της οικονομικής κρίσης που πλήττει όλο τον πλανήτη, είναι πιο επίκαιρη από ποτέ.
Σε τέτοιες περιόδους, οι επιχειρήσεις επιδιώκουν να περιορίσουν το κόστος τους, από τη στιγμή που δεν έχουν την δυνατότητα να αυξήσουν τα έσοδα τους και για αυτό τον λόγο, το σύστημα κοστολόγησης που χρησιμοποιούν, καλείται να τους παρέχει το σύνολο των πληροφοριών, ώστε να καταλήγουν σε αποτελεσματικές αποφάσεις, εκπονώντας διορθωτικές κινήσεις.
Συγκεκριμένα τα τελευταία χρόνια, παρατηρείται ένα αυξημένο ενδιαφέρον για ένα διαφορετικό είδος λογιστικού συστήματος κοστολόγησης, το οποίο στηρίζεται στην ανάλυση των δραστηριοτήτων. Αυτό το σύστημα κοστολόγησης είναι γνωστό ως Activity Based Costing – ABC, το οποίο πρεσβεύει ότι οι δραστηριότητες είναι υπαίτιες για το κόστος και ότι τα προϊόντα, οι υπηρεσίες και οι πελάτες αποτελούν τους λόγους, για τους οποίους διεξάγονται οι δραστηριότητες.
Το νέο αυτό κοστολογικό σύστημα ABC προέκυψε από τους καθηγητές του “Harvard Business School” Robin Cooper and Robert Kaplan κατά τις αρχές της δεκαετίας του 1990 και στηρίζεται στην κοστολόγηση των δραστηριοτήτων που λαμβάνουν χώρα από μια οικονομική μονάδα.
Στην παρούσα διπλωματική εργασία αναλύεται τόσο το θεωρητικό πλαίσιο του κοστολογικού συστήματος βάσει δραστηριοτήτων, όσο και μια πρακτική εφαρμογή του στην επιχείρηση «ΠΑΝΑΓΡΟΤΙΚΑ Τ. ΣΥΡΙΑΝΟΓΛΟΥ».
Πιο αναλυτικά, στο πρώτο μέρος πραγματοποιείται μια ιστορική διαδρομή των κοστολογικών συστημάτων, όπως και τα βασικά στοιχεία και λειτουργίες της μεθόδου ABC. Κατόπιν, αναλύεται ο στόχος, τα στάδια και ο σχεδιασμός του κοστολογικού αυτού συστήματος. Στο 4ο κεφάλαιο, διεξάγεται μια σύγκριση μεταξύ του παραδοσιακού συστήματος κοστολόγησης και του ABC. Ενώ, τέλος διεξάγεται η πρακτική εφαρμογή του στην επιχείρηση «ΠΑΝΑΓΡΟΤΙΚΑ Τ. ΣΥΡΙΑΝΟΓΛΟΥ», όπως και η ανάλυση και πρόβλεψη της ζήτησης.

description: Ranking temporal data has not been studied until recently, even though ranking is an important operator (being promoted as a firstclass citizen) in database systems. However, only the instant top-k queries on temporal data were studied in, where objects with the k highest scores at a query time instance t are to be retrieved. The instant top-k definition clearly comes with limitations (sensitive to outliers, difficult to choose a meaningful query time t). A more flexible and general ranking operation is to rank objects based on the aggregation of their scores in a query interval, which we dub the aggregate top-k query on temporal data. For example, return the top-10 weather stations having the highest average temperature from 10/01/2010 to 10/07/2010; find the top-20 stocks having the largest total transaction volumes from 02/05/2011 to 02/07/2011. This work presents a comprehensive study to this problem by designing both exact and approximate methods (with approximation quality guarantees). We also provide theoretical analysis on the construction cost, the index size, the update and the query costs of each approach. Extensive experiments on large real datasets clearly demonstrate the efficiency, the effectiveness, and the scalability of our methods compared to the baseline methods.

description: A novel approach based on the two-channel moiré deflectometry has been used to measure both wave-front and transverse component of the Poynting vector of an optical vortex beam. Generated vortex beam by the q-plate, an inhomogeneous liquid crystal cell, has been analyzed with such technique. The measured topological charge of generated beams are in an excellent agreement with theoretical prediction.

description: We explore the question of state estimation for a qubit restricted to the $x$-$z$ plane of the Bloch sphere, with the trine measurement. In our earlier work [H. K. Ng and B.-G. Englert, eprint arXiv:1202.5136[quant-ph] (2012)], similarities between quantum tomography and the tomography of a classical die motivated us to apply a simple modification of the classical estimator for use in the quantum problem. This worked very well. In this article, we adapt a different aspect of the classical estimator to the quantum problem. In particular, we investigate the mean estimator, where the mean is taken with a weight function identical to that in the classical estimator but now with quantum constraints imposed. Among such mean estimators, we choose an optimal one with the smallest worst-case error-the minimax mean estimator-and compare its performance with that of other estimators. Despite the natural generalization of the classical approach, this minimax mean estimator does not work as well as one might expect from the analogous performance in the classical problem. While it outperforms the often-used maximum-likelihood estimator in having a smaller worst-case error, the advantage is not significant enough to justify the more complicated procedure required to construct it. The much simpler adapted estimator introduced in our earlier work is still more effective. Our previous work emphasized the similarities between classical and quantum state estimation; in contrast, this paper highlights how intuition gained from classical problems can sometimes fail in the quantum arena.

description: Large deployable antennas with a mesh surface woven by fine metal wires are an important technology for communications satellites and space radio telescopes. However, it is difficult to make metal mesh surfaces with sufficient radio-frequency (RF) performance for frequencies higher than millimeter waves. In this paper, we present the RF performance of metal mesh surfaces at 43 GHz. For this purpose, we developed an apparatus to measure the reflection coefficient, transmission coefficient, and radiative coefficient of the mesh surface. The reflection coefficient increases as a function of metal mesh surface tension, whereas the radiative coefficient decreases. The anisotropic aspects of the reflection coefficient and the radiative coefficient are also clearly seen. They depend on the front and back sides of the metal mesh surface and the rotation angle. The transmission coefficient was measured to be almost constant. The measured radiative coefficients and transmission coefficients would cause significant degradation of the system noise temperature. In addition, we carried out an astronomical observation of a well-known SiO maser source, R Cas, by using a metal mesh mirror on the NRO 45-m radio telescope Coude system. The metal mesh mirror considerably increases the system noise temperature and slightly decreases the peak antenna temperature. These results are consistent with laboratory measurements.

One-step theory of fcc-bcc martensitic transformation

description: Martensitic transformation in steels is responsible for their very high strength and has thus been studied for more than one century since the first works of Martens. However, there is not yet simple physical theory. A rigorous classification of the crystallographic subgroupoids (packets) of the KS variants and the continuity between the KS, NW and Pitsch variants are introduced to represent the crystallographic intricacy associated to the martensite transformation. From this analysis, a new simple theory based on Pitsch distortion is proposed. The distortion respects the hard sphere packing of the iron atoms and implies the existence of a neutral line along the close packed directions. Its principal strains are 0, -5.8 and +15.5 %, well below the +12, +12 and -20 % values of the Bain distortion. Martensite variants nucleate by Pitsch distortion in an austenitic matrix continuously deformed by the transformation. The martensite variants grow by the same Pitsch distortion; they are locally in Pitsch orientation, and therefore are gradually oriented inside the deformation field of austenite leading to the continuum of orientations including KS and NW. Many observations reported in literature can now be re-interpreted.

Clean coding

description: This presentation discusses strategies for writing clean scientific software. Choosing meaningful variable names improves readability. Functions should be short, do exactly one thing, and have no side effects. High-level big picture code should be separated from low-level implementation details, for example by writing code as a top-down narrative. Because comments often become out-of-date as code evolves, it is preferable to refactor code to improve readability rather than describe how it works. Well-written tests increase the flexibility of code. This presentation encourages us to think of code as communication.

The Role of Language in the Environmental Movement: A Comparative Discourse Analysis of Spanish and English through an Ecolinguistics Framework
Creators: name: Takoudis, Alexandra
Publisher: name: University of Chicago
Year: 2023

description: This study focuses on the role of language in producing and encouraging environmental frameworks and attitudes. Research within this sphere aims to determine the capacity of discourse analysis in influencing ecosophy. Within the current Anthropocene exist a variety of ideologies that shape human interaction with the environment. This paper considers an ecolinguistics framework with which to compare the linguistic structure and lexicon of two widespread languages, Spanish and English, through a comparative literature review. It takes a linguistic relativity approach to discourse analysis, examining the way in which corresponding environmental articles, written in Spanish and English, diverge. Findings within the scope of this research suggest that Spanish and English discourse differ substantially with regard to descriptions of agency, urgency, and pronouns, important components in the creation of ecological frameworks. Agency, urgency, and pronoun usage have the power to create a space in which the reader has a deeper connection with, and a more empathetic role regarding, the natural world. They also contribute to a heightened sense of perceived actionability. The results of this analysis illustrate how ecolinguistics can be used in future research and in sparking social action through intentional language use and messaging within the environmental movement.

description: This research project examines how Gold Coast City, Australia, may employ actions and strategies in developing a whole of city approach to effective global positioning and brand recognition. Specifically, it proposes a framework for city brand management that local government (in this case Gold Coast City Council) can implement to effectively reposition the city in global markets. This is in the context of moving the Gold Coast from a traditional tourism focused destination and a city with multiple brand and marketing messages, to a diversified and vibrant global business centre with a strong and clear set of brand values. As part of this research process, a case study of seven cities from around the world was undertaken to identify what lessons, if any, could be learnt and applied from these destinations to a Gold Coast City context. The research also completed a wide ranging consultation process with Gold Coast business and community stakeholders to identify what issues and opportunities that local leaders believe the Gold Coast faces in its efforts to reposition the destination in national and international markets. The conclusion from this research is that city government and the local business community play an important collaborative role in providing the economic fundamentals necessary to underpin any city marketing and branding efforts. City officials alone cannot build brand value without buy in from the wider local community. Further sound economic fundamentals need to exist in a city before the implementation of branding and promotional efforts can become effective. The research also identified that effective and ongoing management of a 'city brand' requires a long term commitment (financial and in kind resources) by a lead organisation that can embed city brand values into the hearts and minds of not only its residents but to the broader global community. These long term commitments may be out of step with the short term imperatives of elected representatives, however economic development and brand development activities are not by their very nature short term fixes. In a global world where cities actively compete against each other to attract private sector investment, company relocation, tourism dollars and indeed new residents, the need for a long term commitment to economic development activity as part of the city's overall brand and positioning program would appear to be an important factor in how the Gold Coast can successfully re-position itself.

description: On February 13th 2012, the LARES satellite of the Italian Space Agency (ASI) was launched into orbit with the qualification flight of the new VEGA launcher of the European Space Agency (ESA). The payload was released very accurately in the nominal orbit. The name LARES means LAser RElativity Satellite and summarises the objective of the mission and some characteristics of the satellite. It is, in fact, a mission designed to test Einstein's General Relativity Theory (specifically 'frame dragging' and Lense-Thirring effect). The satellite is passive and covered with optical retroreflectors that send back laser pulses to the emitting ground station. This allows accurate positioning of the satellite, which is important for measuring the very small deviations from Galilei-Newton's laws. In 2008, ASI selected the prime industrial contractor for the LARES system with a heavy involvement of the universities in all phases of the programme, from the design to the construction and testing of the satellite and separation system. The data exploitation phase started immediately after the launch under a new contract between ASI and those universities. Tracking of the satellite is provided by the International Laser Ranging Service. Due to its particular design, LARES is the orbiting object with the highest known mean density in the solar system. In this paper, it is shown that this peculiarity makes it the best proof particle ever manufactured. Design aspects, mission objectives and preliminary data analysis will be also presented.
