The Enosis Method: An Alternative Mixed Method to Analyse Qualitative Information
Creators: name: Fakis, Apostolos
Publisher: name: University of Derby
Year: 2020
Subjects: Enosis, mixed methods, qualitative, quantitative, analysis

description: Purpose: Qualitative methods, mainly, do not use numbers to present and interpret the qualitative data but through themes, quotes, and transcript extracts. A comprehensive systematic literature review was undertaken to explore how qualitative information from semi-structured and unstructured interviews has been analysed using quantitative methods and by which methods. The aim of this research was to bridge the identified knowledge gap in the literature for developing a method, which can analyse complex relationships among qualitative data, as well as between qualitative and quantitative data by taking into account the measurement error and the small sample size of the qualitative dataset. Method: A new mixed method, called Enosis, was developed that consisted of two steps: quantifying the qualitative data (themes) based on a scoring system and analysing the scores using Structural Equation Modelling (SEM). The feasibility of the Enosis method was tested in a pilot study using one qualitative dataset that had primary been analysed with Interpretive Phenomenology Analysis . Its transferability was, then, explored using another two qualitative datasets, which had been analysed with Grounded Theory and Thematic Analysis. Findings: The results from the pilot study suggested that that the Enosis method is feasible for quantifying qualitative data and analysing them with SEM. Three scoring systems, the ‘Frequency’, the ‘Proportion’, and the ‘References’, were developed for quantifying the qualitative data. The final structural models were adjusted for the small sample size and the measurement error that incurred due to imperfect quantification of rich qualitative information into numbers was quantified. The transferability of the Enosis method was evident as new associations that were not identified by the primary qualitative analysis were revealed in all three datasets. The Enosis method also produced results that had been identified through the qualitative analysis or were present in the literature. Thus, the results of the Enosis method were used for initiation, complementary and triangulation, and expansion purposes. Five essential requirements were developed for planning appropriately the methodology of a research project so that to be suitable for applying the Enosis method. Conclusion: This research evidences that the Enosis method is a useful secondary analysis method for analysing complex relationships among qualitative data, as well as between qualitative and quantitative data, by taking into account the measurement error occurred through the quantification process and the small sample size of the qualitative dataset. The Enosis method contributed in strengthening the collaboration between the qualitative and quantitative researchers, and making the results and conclusions of the primary qualitative research appealing to a wider audience.

description: We study electric quantum walks in two dimensions considering Grover, Alternate, Hadamard, and DFT quantum walks. In the Grover walk the behaviour under an electric field is easy to summarize: when the field direction coincides with the x or y axes, it produces a transient trapping of the probability distribution along the direction of the field, while when it is directed along the diagonals, a perfect 2D trapping is frustrated. The analysis of the alternate walk helps to understand the behaviour of the Grover walk as both walks are partially equivalent; in particular, it helps to understand the role played by the existence of conical intersections in the dispersion relations, as we show that when these are removed a perfect 2D trapping can occur for suitable directions of the field. We complete our study with the electric DFT and Hadamard walks in 2D, showing that the latter can exhibit perfect 2D trapping.

Conspiracy Theories, MIllennialism, and the Nation: Understanding the collective voice in improvisational millennialism

description: The following critical appraisal presents eight interlinked works that apply and extend Michael Barkun’s (2003) concept of ‘improvisational millennialism’. This body of work demonstrates that, as Barkun suggests, the concept is widely applicable to the online communities in which stigmatized knowledge is widely accepted. Moreover, it extends the definition to consider how improvisational millennialism provides ill-defined or dispossessed communities a means of articulating a collective relationship to historical time as well as a crude means of shoring up basic assumptions of group membership. Mythical pasts and millennial expectation provide the opportunity for shared eschatological orientation whilst the dualism of conspiracy theories demarcates between the communities and their outsiders. This critical review demonstrates how the journal articles and book chapters collected in the appendices provide specific examples of the application and extension of improvisational millennialism. The examples chosen are varied but a persistent theme drawn out through analysis is the role that national cultures – official and official – are articulated through improvisational millennialism. The examples include consideration of how the depiction of millennial beliefs in the mass media contribute to national cultural constructs but more typically focus on the use of improvisational millennialism in online communities. Of the latter, the greater number of examples are concerned with improvisational millennialism within the neo-fascist milieu. Mobilised by conspiracy theories with apocalyptic subtexts, the far right reliance on improvisational millennialism demonstrates the implicit danger of the increased incursion of stigmatized knowledge into the cultural mainstream. This critical review serves to show that despite being typified by a syncretic bricolage of unconnected ideas and traditions, improvisational millennialism is reflective of both social and political realities.
Effects of photophoresis on the dust distribution in a 3D protoplanetary disc

description: Photophoresis is a physical process based on momentum exchange between an illuminated dust particle and its gaseous environment. Its net effect in protoplanetary discs (PPD) is the outward transport of solid bodies from hot to cold regions. This process naturally leads to the formation of ring-shaped features where dust piles up. In this work, we study the dynamical effects of photophoresis in PPD by including the photophoretic force in the two-fluid (gas+dust) smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) code developed by Barrière-Fouchet et al. (2005). We find that the conditions of pressure and temperature encountered in the inner regions of PPD result in important photophoretic forces, which dramatically affect the radial motion of solid bodies. Moreover, dust particles have different equilibrium locations in the disc depending on their size and their intrinsic density. The radial transport towards the outer parts of the disc is more efficient for silicates than for iron particles, which has important implications for meteoritic composition. Our results indicate that photophoresis must be taken into account in the inner regions of PPD to fully understand the dynamics and the evolution of the dust composition.

description: Pressurized drift-tube chambers are efficient detectors for high-precision tracking over large areas. The Monitored Drift-Tube (MDT) chambers of the muon spectrometer of the ATLAS detector at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) reach a spatial resolution of 35 micons and almost 100% tracking efficiency with 6 layers of 30 mm diameter drift tubes operated with Ar:CO2 (93:7) gas mixture at 3 bar and a gas gain of 20000. The ATLAS MDT chambers are designed to cope with background counting rates due to neutrons and gamma-rays of up to about 300 kHz per tube which will be exceeded for LHC luminosities larger than the design value of 10-34 per square cm and second. Decreasing the drift-tube diameter to 15 mm while keeping the other parameters, including the gas gain, unchanged reduces the maximum drift time from about 700 ns to 200 ns and the drift-tube occupancy by a factor of 7. New drift-tube chambers for the endcap regions of the ATLAS muon spectrometer have been designed. A prototype chamber consisting of 12 times 8 layers of 15 mm diameter drift tubes of 1 m length has been constructed with a sense wire positioning accuracy of 20 microns. The 15 mm diameter drift-tubes have been tested with cosmic rays in the Gamma Irradiation Facility at CERN at counting rates of up to 1.85 MHz.

description: Ever since the pioneering work of Bardeen, Cooper and Schrieffer in the 1950s, exploring novel pairing mechanisms for fermion superfluids has become one of the central tasks in modern physics. Here, we investigate a new type of fermion superfluid with hybridized $s$- and $p$-wave pairings in an ultracold spin-1/2 Fermi gas. Its occurrence is facilitated by the co-existence of comparable $s$- and $p$-wave interactions, which is realizable in a two-component $^{40}$K Fermi gas with close-by $s$- and $p$-wave Feshbach resonances. The hybridized superfluid state is stable over a considerable parameter region on the phase diagram, and can lead to intriguing patterns of spin densities and pairing fields in momentum space. In particular, it can induce a phase-locked $p$-wave pairing in the fermion species that has no $p$-wave interactions. The hybridized nature of this novel superfluid can also be confirmed by measuring the $s$-wave and $p$-wave contacts, which can be extracted from the high-momentum tail of the momentum distribution of each spin component. These results enrich our knowledge of pairing superfluidity in Fermi systems, and open the avenue for achieving novel fermion superfluids with multiple partial-wave scatterings in cold atomic gases.

description: Environmental carcinogens increase cancer incidence via both mutagenic and non-mutagenic mechanisms. There are over 500 known or suspected carcinogens classified by the International Agency for Research on Cancer. Sequencing of both cancerous and histologically non-cancerous tissue has been instrumental in improving our understanding of how environmental carcinogens cause cancer. Understanding how and defining which environmental or lifestyle exposures drive cancer will support cancer prevention. Recent research is revisiting the mechanisms of early tumorigenesis, paving the way for an era of molecular cancer prevention. Significance: Recent data have improved our understanding of how carcinogens cause cancer, which may reveal novel opportunities for molecular cancer prevention.

description: We consider non-spherically symmetric perturbations of the uncharged black string/flat black brane in the large dimension (D) limit of general relativity. We express the perturbations in a simplified form using variables introduced by Ishibashi and Kodama. We apply the large D limit to the equations, and show that this leads to decoupling of the equations in the near-horizon and asymptotic regions. It also enables use of matched asymptotic expansions to obtain approximate analytical solutions and to analyze stability of the black string/brane. For a large class of non-spherically symmetric perturbations, we prove that there are no instabilities in the large D limit. For the rest, we provide additional matching arguments that indicate that the black string/brane is stable. In the \emph{static} limit, we show that for \emph{all} non-spherically symmetric perturbations, there is no instability. This is proof that the Gross-Perry-Yaffe mode for semiclassical black hole perturbations is the unique unstable mode even in the large D limit. This work is also a direct analytical indication that the only instability of the black string is the Gregory-Laflamme instability.

description: Class I CH$_3$OH masers trace interstellar shocks. They have received little attention mostly as a consequence of their low luminosities; this situation has changed recently and Class I masers are now routinely used as signposts of outflows. The recent detection of polarisation in Class I lines now makes it possible to obtain information on magnetic fields in shocks. We make use of newly calculated collisional rates to investigate the excitation of Class I masers and to reconcile their observed properties with model results. We performed LVG calculations with a plane-parallel slab geometry to compute the pump and loss rates which regulate the interactions of the different maser systems with the maser reservoir. We study the dependence of the pump rate, the loss rate, and the inversion efficiency of the pumping scheme of Class I masers on the physics of the gas. Bright Class I masers are mainly high-temperature high-density structures with maser emission measures corresponding to high CH$_3$OH abundances close to the limits set by collisional quenching. Our model reproduces reasonably well most of the observed properties of Class I masers. The 25 GHz masers are the most sensitive to the density and mase at higher densities than other lines. Moreover, even at high density and high abundance, their luminosity is lower than that of the 44 GHz and 36 GHz lines. By comparison between observed isotropic photon luminosities and our model, we infer beam solid angles of ~0.001 steradian. Class I masers can be separated into 3 families: the $(J+1)_{-1}-J_{0}$-E type, the $(J+1)_0-J_1$-A type, and the $J_2-J_1$-E lines. The 25 GHz lines behave in a different fashion from the other masers as they are only inverted at densities above $10^6$ cm$^{-3}$ in contrast to other Class I masers. Therefore, the detection of maser activity in all 3 families is a clear indication of high densities.

Dechirper Wakefields for Short Bunches

description: In previous work [1] general expressions, valid for arbitrary bunch lengths, were derived for the wakefields of corrugated structures with flat geometry, such as is used in the RadiaBeam/LCLS dechirper. However, the bunch at the end of linac-based X-ray FELs--like the LCLS--is extremely short, and for short bunches the wakes can be considerably simplified. In this work, we first derive analytical approximations to the short-range wakes. These are generalized wakes, in the sense that their validity is not limited to a small neighborhood of the symmetry axis, but rather extends to arbitrary transverse offsets of driving and test particles. The validity of these short-bunch wakes holds not only for the corrugated structure, but rather for any flat structure whose beam-cavity interaction can be described by a surface impedance. We use these wakes to obtain, for a short bunch passing through a dechirper: estimates of the energy loss as function of gap, the transverse kick as function of beam offset, the slice energy spread increase, and the emittance growth. In the Appendix, a more accurate derivation--than is found in [1]--of the arbitrary bunch length wakes is performed; we find full agreement with the earlier results, provided the bunches are short compared to the dechirper gap, which is normally the regime of interest.

Standard Monte-Carlo simulations based upon importance sampling, which have been producing quantitative first principle results in particle physics for almost fourty years, cannot be applied in this case. Various strategies to overcome this so-called Sign Problem or Complex Action Problem were proposed during the last thirty years. We here review the sign problem in lattice field theories, focussing on two more recent methods: Dualization to world-line type of representations and the density-of-states approach.

description: Objective: The objective of this Scoping review is to map all scientific evidence to identify which factors influence the adherence of health professionals to measures that prevent Surgical Site Infection (SSI) in the intraoperative period. Introduction: SSI is a potential complication associated with any surgical procedure. It has economic and social impacts, and most are preventable if each member of the multidisciplinary team plays their part. Promoting adherence to preventive measures leads to greater awareness among professionals in order to improve the quality and safety of care provided. Inclusion criteria: The review integrates studies on the adherence of health professionals to measures that prevent surgical site infection, in the operating room. Studies that include measures of adherence by health professionals to the prevention of surgical site infection in the intraoperative period are included, whether published in Portuguese, English, Spanish or French, also regardless of the nature and typology of the study, with no time limit. Methods: Review is done according to the Joanna Briggs Institute method for conducting a Scoping Review. The search was carried out using databases of Scopus, CINAHL Complete, Web of Science and Open Grey, during December 2022. The selection was carried out by three independent researchers and data were grouped into themes according to their contents.
title: A study of the common features of Kairos documents and a comparative analysis of Kairos Korea and Kairos Palestine
Creators: name: Kim, Munkee
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow in partnership with Edinburgh Theological Seminary
Year: 2023

description: The fundamental aim of this research was to examine how the church can contribute to overcoming social and political crises in modern society, and to examine the nature of contemporary peace mission. Kairos documents were chosen as a model and focus of this research, to investigate if they can provide a way forward for churches to contribute to facilitating peace in society today. Kairos documents already offer signposts for how modern churches can deal with and participate in social and political issues and crises in their respective countries from a faith perspective. Furthermore, these documents offer more practical methods for peace today than what can be learned from the traditions of the Peace Church in the pre-modern era. In order to gain a solid understanding of the common features and characteristics of Kairos documents, the articles of several researchers, professionals, and a resource book, were reviewed and analysed; in particular, work by John W de Gruchy, Allan Boesak, Rifat Odeh Kassis, Naim Stifan Ateek, and Mark Braverman. The Bible citations in five selected Kairos documents were also statistically and qualitatively analysed, to gain an understanding of how the Kairos documents use the Bible to support their positions. The introduction of fourteen existing Kairos documents also helped to define the general features of Kairos documents by acknowledging the existence and voices of various Kairos documents. The literature review confirmed that there is a collection of church documents that can be categorized as Kairos documents, which can be studied as a group rather than focusing on any one specific Kairos document. To investigate Kairos documents in more detail, a comparative analysis of two specific Kairos documents, Kairos Korea (“Declaration of the Churches of Korea on National Reunification and Peace”, 1988) and Kairos Palestine (“A Moment of Truth: A Word of Faith, Hope, and Love from the Heart of Palestinian Suffering”, 2009) was undertaken. This comparison supported the idea of understanding Kairos documents as a group of documents according to their distilled general characteristics. It also demonstrated how these documents are comprised of both confession and practical action and are documents of faith. A comparison of both documents covered five areas as follows: • specific theology including a confession of repentance; • petitions and appeals to church and society; • theological tendencies; • programs for advocacy and campaigns; and • their effect on the church and society. This thesis is foundational research for ultimately studying how the church could confirm principles and actions for peace and justice in a confessional manner.
Time-headway distribution for periodic totally asymmetric exclusion process with various updates

description: The totally asymmetric exclusion process (TASEP) with periodic boundaries is considered as traffic flow model. The large-L approximation of the stationary state is used for the derivation of the time-headway distribution (an important microscopic characteristics of traffic flow) for the model with generalized update (genTASEP) in both, forward- and backward-sequential representation. The usually used updates, fully-parallel and regular forward- and backward-sequential, are analysed as special cases of the genTASEP. It is shown that only for those cases, the time-headway distribution is determined by the flow regardless to the density. The qualitative comparison of the results with traffic data demonstrates that the genTASEP with backward order and attractive interaction evinces similar properties of time-headway distribution as the real traffic sample.

description: Hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection is a major global health concern, particularly prevalent in developing countries. This necro-inflammatory liver disease can lead to severe health complications, including liver cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma. HBV is highly contagious and can be transmitted through various means, making healthcare workers (HCWs) particularly vulnerable to infection due to their occupational exposure to blood and body fluids. Millions of HCWs worldwide face the risk of needlestick injuries and puncture wounds, and a significant number of these incidents go unreported. This places HCWs at a four-fold higher risk of HBV infection compared to non-healthcare workers. To mitigate this occupational hazard, it is crucial to promote hepatitis B vaccination among healthcare professionals and implement strict safety measures in healthcare settings to prevent needlestick injuries and reduce the risk of transmission. In this context, this study aims to highlight the critical need for increased awareness, prevention, and vaccination programs to protect HCWs from HBV infection and contribute to global efforts in controlling this significant public health issue.

Subjects: Spondyloarthrite ankylosante, éducation thérapeutique, autogestion, autosoins.

description: Patient education is a management approach that aims to influence patient knowledge, skills and attitudes. This is an ongoing process that is crucial in the management of chronic conditions like Spondyloarthritis. Indeed, numerous studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of the patient education programs on disease activity, its impact on patient function and quality of life. Therefore, healthcare providers are required to inform, advise, guide, and educate patients to help them develop self-management and self-care skills.
description: L’éducation thérapeutique du patient (ETP) est une modalité de prise en charge qui agit sur les connaissances, les compétences et les attitudes du patient. C’est un processus continu et permanent qui joue un rôle important dans le traitement des maladies chroniques, notamment la spondyloarthrite (SpA). En effet, plusieurs études ont démontré l’efficacité de l’ETP sur l’activité de la maladie, son impact sur la fonction et la qualité de vie des patients. Il est donc fondamental que les intervenants du système de soins informent, conseillent, orientent et éduquent les patients atteints de SpA afin qu’ils acquièrent les capacités d’autogestion et d’autosoins.

Particle production with L-R neutrino oscillation

description: When the Higgs field starts oscillation after Higgs inflation, gauge bosons are produced non-perturbatively near the Enhanced Symmetry Point (ESP). Just after the particle production, when the Higgs field is going away from the ESP, these gauge bosons gain mass and decay or annihilate into Standard Model (SM) fermions. Left-handed neutrinos can be generated in that way. If one assumes the see-saw mechanism, the mass matrix of a pair of left and right-handed neutrinos is non-diagonal. Although their mixing in the mass eigenstates is negligible in the true vacuum, it could be significant near the edge of the Higgs oscillation, where the off-diagonal component is large. Therefore, the left-handed neutrinos generated from the gauge bosons can start neutrino oscillation between the right-handed neutrinos. We study the particle production when such L-R neutrino oscillation is significant. For a working example, the non-thermal leptogenesis scenario after Higgs inflation is examined, which cannot be realized without the L-R neutrino oscillation. The same mechanism could be applied to other singlet particles whose abundance has been neglected.

Investigation of an intelligent personalised service recommendation system in an IMS based cellular mobile network

description: Success or failure of future information and communication services in general and mobile communications in particular is greatly dependent on the level of personalisations they can offer. While the provision of anytime, anywhere, anyhow services has been the focus of wireless telecommunications in recent years, personalisation however has gained more and more attention as the unique selling point of mobile devices. Smart phones should be intelligent enough to match user’s unique needs and preferences to provide a truly personalised service tailored for the individual user. In the first part of this thesis, the importance and role of personalisation in future mobile networks is studied. This is followed, by an agent based futuristic user scenario that addresses the provision of rich data services independent of location. Scenario analysis identifies the requirements and challenges to be solved for the realisation of a personalised service. An architecture based on IP Multimedia Subsystem is proposed for mobility and to provide service continuity whilst roaming between two different access standards. Another aspect of personalisation, which is user preference modelling, is investigated in the context of service selection in a multi 3rd party service provider environment. A model is proposed for the automatic acquisition of user preferences to assist in service selection decision-making. User preferences are modelled based on a two-level Bayesian Metanetwork. Personal agents incorporating the proposed model provide answers to preference related queries such as cost, QoS and service provider reputation. This allows users to have their preferences considered automatically.

description: A number of phenomenologically relevant processes at hadron colliders, such as Higgs and Z boson production in association with b quarks, can be conveniently described as scattering of heavy quarks in the initial state. We present a detailed analysis of this class of processes, identifying the form of the leading initial-state collinear logarithms that allow the relation of calculations performed in different flavour schemes in a simple and reliable way. This procedure makes it possible to assess the size of the logarithmically enhanced terms and the effects of their resummation via heavy-quark parton distribution functions. As an application, we compare the production of (SM-like and heavy) scalar and vector bosons in association with b quarks at the LHC in the four- and five-flavour schemes as well as the production of a heavy Z' in association with top quarks at a future 100 TeV hadron collider in the five- and six-flavour schemes. We find that, in agreement with a previous analysis of single heavy-quark initiated processes, the size of the initial-state logarithms is mitigated by a kinematical suppression. The most important effects of the resummation are a shift of the central predictions typically of about 20% at a justified value of the scale of each considered process and a significant reduction of scale variation uncertainties.
