description: It is known that the metric and Palatini formalisms of gravity theories have their own interesting features but also suffer from some different drawbacks. Recently, a novel gravity theory called hybrid metric-Palatini gravity was put forward to cure or improve their individual deficiencies. The action of this gravity theory is a hybrid combination of the usual Einstein-Hilbert action and a $f(\mathcal{R})$ term constructed by the Palatini formalism. Interestingly, it seems that the existence of a light and long-range scalar field in this gravity may modify the cosmological and galactic dynamics without conflicting with the laboratory and Solar System tests. In this paper we focus on the tensor perturbation of thick branes in this novel gravity theory. We consider two models as examples, namely, the thick branes constructed by a background scalar field and by pure gravity. The thick branes in both models have no inner structure. However, the graviton zero mode in the first model has inner structure when the parameter in this model is larger than its critical value. We find that the effective four-dimensional gravity can be reproduced on the brane for both models. Moreover, the stability of both brane systems against the tensor perturbation can also be ensured.

description: While the Virgo cluster is the nearest galaxy cluster and therefore the best observed one, little is known about its formation history. In this paper, a set of cosmological simulations that resemble the Local Universe is used to shed the first light on this mystery. The initial conditions for these simulations are constrained with galaxy peculiar velocities of the second catalog of the Cosmicflows project using algorithms developed within the Constrained Local UniversE Simulation project. Boxes of 500 Mpc/h on a side are set to run a series of dark matter only constrained simulations. In each simulation, a unique dark matter halo can be reliably identified as Virgo's counterpart. The properties of these Virgo halos are in agreement at a 10-20% level with the global properties of the observed Virgo cluster. Their zero-velocity masses agree at one-sigma with the observational mass estimate. In all the simulations, the matter falls onto the Virgo objects along a preferential direction that corresponds to the observational filament and the slowest direction of collapse. A study of the mass accretion history of the Virgo candidates reveals the most likely formation history of the Virgo cluster, namely a quiet accretion over the last 7 Gigayears.

description: 1. Rajania cordata var. retusa Knuth (1917: 219). Type:—UNKNOWN. “Vaterland Unbekkant” (holotype B n.v.)
 Notes: It’s not clear what this name refers to. The lack of collection data (“fatherland unknown”) makes the specimen difficult to locate, although most likely it is still at B, perhaps filed in the general collection. Knuth (1917, 1924) provided only scant details: no other specimens are cited, and without a locality, the description: “leaf-blade triangularoblong, base +/- retuse, moderately firm, fruit 13 mm. long,” is too generic to determine if the specimen is in fact D. cordata or a different species.

description: We report the discovery of NGC 253-dw2, a dwarf spheroidal (dSph) galaxy candidate undergoing tidal disruption around a nearby spiral galaxy, NGC 253 in the Sculptor group: the first such event identified beyond the Local Group. The dwarf was found using small-aperture amateur telescopes, and followed up with Suprime-Cam on the 8 m Subaru Telescope in order to resolve its brightest stars. Using g- and R_c-band photometry, we detect a red giant branch consistent with an old, metal-poor stellar population at a distance of ~ 3.5 Mpc. From the distribution of likely member stars, we infer a highly elongated shape with a semi-major axis half-light radius of (2 +/- 0.4) kpc. Star counts also yield a luminosity estimate of ~ 2x10^6 L_Sun,V (M_V ~ -10.7). The morphological properties of NGC 253-dw2 mark it as distinct from normal dSphs and imply ongoing disruption at a projected distance of ~ 50 kpc from the main galaxy. Our observations support the hierarchical paradigm wherein massive galaxies continously accrete less massive ones, and provide a new case study for dSph infall and dissolution dynamics. We also note the continued efficacy of small telescopes for making big discoveries.

description: The correlations of the crust-core transition density and pressure in neutron stars with the slope of the symmetry energy and the neutron skin thickness are investigated, using different families of relativistic mean field parametrizations with constant couplings and non-linear terms mixing the $σ$, $ω$ and $ρ$-meson fields. It is shown that the modification of the density dependence of the symmetry energy, involving the $σ$ or the $ω$ meson, gives rise to different behaviors: the effect of the $ω$-meson may also be reproduced within non-relativistic phenomenological models, while the effect of the $σ$-meson is essentially relativistic. Depending on the parametrization with $σ-ρ$ or $ω-ρ$ mixing terms, different values of the slope of the symmetry energy at saturation must be considered in order to obtain a neutron matter equation of state compatible with results from chiral effective field theory. This difference leads to different pressures at the crust-core transition density. A linear correlation between the transition density and the symmetry energy slope or the neutron skin thickness of the $^{208}$Pb nucleus is obtained, only when the $ω$-meson is used to describe the density dependence of the symmetry energy. A comparison is made between the crust-core transition properties of neutron stars obtained by three different methods, the Relativistic Random Phase Approximation (RRPA), the Vlasov equation and Thermodynamical method. It is shown that the RRPA and the Vlasov methods predict similar transition densities for $pne$ $β$-equilibrium stellar matter.

description: Altering the optics in one section of a linear accelerator beamline will in general cause an alteration of the optics in all downstream sections. In circular accelerators, changing the optical properties of any beamline element will have an impact on the optical functions throughout the whole machine. In many cases, however, it is desirable to change the optics in a certain beamline section without disturbing any other parts of the machine. Such a local optics manipulation can be achieved by adjusting a number of additional corrector magnets that restore the initial optics after the manipulated section. In that case, the effect of the manipulation is confined in the region between the manipulated and the correcting beamline elements. Introducing a manipulation continuously, while the machine is operating, therefore requires continuous correction functions to be applied to the correcting quadrupole magnets. In this paper we present an analytic approach to calculate such continuous correction functions for six quadrupole magnets by means of a homotopy method. Besides a detailed derivation of the method, we present its application to an algebraic example, as well as its implementation at the seeding experiment sFLASH at the free-electron laser FLASH located at DESY in Hamburg.

description: Around 25 million tons of coal mine waste rock (CMWR) are stored in many places in Morocco due to coal mining activities. As a result, air and water quality of the neighborhood is polluted and large lands are occupied. This study aimed to investigate the use of an integrated and circular approach based on coal recovery and waste rock recycling. More than 30 drill core samples were taken from the big coal dump reaching a depth of 60 m and analyzed to evaluate the chemical composition variability. Froth flotation was used to recover coal particles using diesel as a collector and Methyl Isobutyl Carbinol as a frother, 100 g/t each. The tailings of coal flotation process (CFT) were used to manufacture fired bricks at a pilot scale. The results of this study highlighted the possibility to valorize the whole waste material toward an objective of zero waste in the future. On a basis of 100t feed, (i) 10-15t can be recovered as high-quality anthracite coal with a calorific value over 7500 kcal/kg using flotation processing at a recovery yield over 80%, (ii) 45-60t can be reused as shales for bricks production with a compressive strength over 16MPa, (iii) 20-30t can be reused as aggregates for concrete production with a compressive strength over 20MPa. The remaining material can be reused as sand. The recovered anthracite can be reused to manufacture coal briquettes or used at it is in the thermal power plant next to the dump site.

description: Building upon the theory of graph limits and the Aldous-Hoover representation and inspired by Panchenko's work on asymptotic Gibbs measures (Annals of Probability 2013), we construct continuous embeddings of discrete probability distributions. We show that the theory of graph limits induces a meaningful notion of convergence and derive a corresponding version of the Szemerédi regularity lemma. Moreover, complementing recent work (Bapst et. al. 2015), we apply these results to Gibbs measures induced by sparse random factor graphs and verify the "replica symmetric solution" predicted in the physics literature under the assumption of non-reconstruction.

description: Digital Micromirror Devices (DMD) provide a robust platform with which to implement digital holography, in principle providing the means to rapidly generate propagating transverse electromagnetic fields with arbitrary mode profiles at visible and IR wavelengths. We use a DMD to probe a Fabry-Pérot cavity in single-mode and near-degenerate confocal configurations. Pumping arbitrary modes of the cavity is possible with excellent specificity by virtue of the spatial overlap between the incident light field and the cavity mode.

Fragestellung: Welche signifikanten prä- und perinatalen Komplikationen treten bei Primiparae im Alter ab 40 Jahren im Vergleich zu Multiparae im Alter ab 40 Jahren auf?
Methode: Die Fragestellung der Bachelorarbeit wird mittels eines Literaturreviews im EMED-Format bearbeitet. Die Literatur setzt sich aus einer Recherche im NebisKatalog sowie Fachdatenbankrecherchen zusammen. Zur Evaluation der Studien wird das Arbeitsinstrument für ein Critical Appraisal (AICA) nach Ris und PreusseBleuler (2015) verwendet.
Relevante Ergebnisse: Ein Alter ab 40 Jahren hat in den meisten Fällen Einfluss auf das Vorkommen von prä- und perinatalen Komplikationen. Primiparae ab 40 Jahren haben häufiger eine Plazenta praevia, eine Sectio caesarea, ein tiefes Geburtsgewicht oder eine Frühgeburt als Multiparae ab 40 Jahren. Auf folgende Komplikationen hat die Parität keinen Einfluss: Gestationsdiabetes, Hypertonie, postpartale Hämorrhagie, Makrosomie und intrauteriner Fruchttod.
Schlussfolgerung: Der Einfluss der Parität auf prä- und perinatale Komplikationen bei Frauen ab 40 Jahren konnte teilweise bestätigt werden. Um genaue Aussagen darüber zu treffen, muss weitergehende Forschung betrieben werden
Exploring the impact and process of merit pay for public school teachers
Creators: name: Zhang, Xiaodong
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Merit pay for public school teachers has been one of the most controversial educational policies in the US. Built on the free market principle, it is designed to reward teachers according to their performance and hence improve the quality of education they provide to students. Nevertheless, merit pay experiments seldom appear to be successful in schools. Notwithstanding the controversies and amount of dollars invested, there have been few systematic studies on the impact of such policies on student achievement and the conclusions come largely from reviews of the staying power of merit pay systems. This dissertation examines the impact of merit pay on student achievement with a three-prong approach, using both quantitative and qualitative methods. The first design, using national data from the Schools and Staffing Survey (1987--88), looks at the effect of merit pay on student college application rate and graduation rate. The second design, using panel data from Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS), Virginia (1989--1996), examines how merit pay plans affect students' standardized test scores. The results suggest that merit pay has little, and sometimes even negative effect on student achievement. In addition, the study verifies that students' socio-economic status, class size and teacher education, each in its own way, have significant impact on student performance while the influence from teacher experience is often insignificant. The third prong of the dissertation is a case study of the merit pay experiment in the FCPS. It aims to uncover the "black box" of policy design and implementation by tracing the actions and interactions of major players in the process. The case study finds that the rise and fall of merit pay does not depend on whether it achieves its intended outcomes, but rather the changing political and economic support of such policy. The study provides insights on why merit pay doesn't work. The marginal productivity theory that merit pay is based on is flawed and cannot be applied to schools where outcomes rely on multiple factors. Implementation of merit pay plans that depend on excessive measurement and considerable financial investment also creates resource problems that make most programs short-lived. Finally, cyclical returns of merit pay simply reflect the frustration that effective means to improve student achievement remain illusive to educators and policymakers. The study discusses the implications of merit pay on recent developments in teacher compensation such as the national board certification and school-based incentives. While it indicates some of the promising aspects of the school-based incentives, it cautions that compensation reform is not a magic elixir that will cure all of education's ills and that any compensation reform must be accompanied with other reforms in instruction and management.

description: Darstellung des Themas: Durch den stetigen Anstieg der Geburtseinleitungen stellt sich die Frage, ob sich der Einsatz von Uterotonika verringern und durch alternative Methoden ersetzen lässt. Um den natürlichen Geburtsprozess zu fördern, wird teilweise in der Geburtshilfe der Rizinuscocktail zur Wehenstimulierung eingesetzt.
Ziel: Unter Einbezug von soziodemografischen Parametern sollen die besten Vorhersagewerte für eine erfolgreiche Geburtseinleitung mittels des Rizinuscocktails ermittelt werden. Zudem soll herausgearbeitet werden, inwiefern sich das peripartale Outcome zwischen der Rizinus- und der Medikamentengruppe unterscheidet.
Methode: Die prospektive, nicht kontrollierte Beobachtungsstudie berücksichtigte 96 Schwangere. Die Datenerhebung erfolgte im Jahr 2017 anhand eines standardisierten Datenblattes im Rahmen einer Schwangerschaftskontrolle, welches postpartum ergänzt wurde. Eine retrospektive Zusatzerhebung lieferte Informationen bezüglich maternalem und fetalem Outcome. Die Daten wurden mittels parametrischen und nichtparametrischen Tests analysiert.
Ergebnisse: Gesamthaft entwickelten nach Rizinuscocktaileinnahme 69.8 % (n=67) der Frauen eine suffiziente Wehentätigkeit, im Vergleich zu 30.2 % (n= 29) welche zusätzliche Uterotonika benötigten. Multiparen (p=0.017) und Frauen mit einem Bishopscore ≥5 (p=0.027), entwickelten signifikant häufiger suffiziente Wehen. Bezüglich peripartalen Faktoren wies die Rizinusgruppe signifikant häufiger eine kürzere Geburtsdauer (p=0.014) sowie vermehrt Spontangeburten (p=0.004) auf.
Schlussfolgerung: Der Rizinuscocktail kann unter gegebenen Voraussetzungen als eine gute Alternative zur medikamentösen Geburtseinleitung betrachtet werden, bedarf jedoch weiterer Forschung.

Ergebnisse: Aus den Ergebnissen der ausgewerteten Studien konnten folgende Bedürfnisse von Frauen während einer Folgeschwangerschaft nach früherem Kindsverlust abgeleitet werden:
- Bedürfnis nach Sicherheit
- Bedürfnis nach Unterstützung
- Bedürfnis nach Kontrolle
Daraus liessen sich konkrete Empfehlungen für die Betreuung durch Hebammen und andere Fachpersonen formulieren.
Schlussfolgerung: Die Berücksichtigung der ermittelten Bedürfnisse und die daraus abgeleiteten Empfehlungen sollten unter Beachtung der Salutogenese und den individuellen Wünschen der Schwangeren in deren Betreuung mit einfliessen.

description: We present the analysis of the planetary microlensing event OGLE-2014-BLG-1760, which shows a strong light curve signal due to the presence of a Jupiter mass-ratio planet. One unusual feature of this event is that the source star is quite blue, with $V-I = 1.48\pm 0.08$. This is marginally consistent with source star in the Galactic bulge, but it could possibly indicate a young source star in the far side of the disk. Assuming a bulge source, we perform a Bayesian analysis assuming a standard Galactic model, and this indicates that the planetary system resides in or near the Galactic bulge at $D_L = 6.9 \pm 1.1 $ kpc. It also indicates a host star mass of $M_* = 0.51 \pm 0.44 M_\odot$, a planet mass of $m_p = 180 \pm 110 M_\oplus$, and a projected star-planet separation of $a_\perp = 1.7\pm 0.3\,$AU. The lens-source relative proper motion is $μ_{\rm rel} = 6.5\pm 1.1$ mas/yr. The lens (and stellar host star) is predicted to be very faint, so it is most likely that it can detected only when the lens and source stars are partially resolved. Due to the relatively high relative proper motion, the lens and source will be resolved to about $\sim46\,$mas in 6-8 years after the peak magnification. So, by 2020 - 2022, we can hope to detect the lens star with deep, high resolution images.

description: Context. Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) data are extremely sensitive to the phase stability of the VLBI array. This is especially important when we reach μJy r.m.s. sensitivities. Calibration using standard phase referencing techniques is often used to improve the phase stability of VLBI data but the results are often not optimal. This is evident in blank fields that do not have in-beam calibrators. Aims. We present a calibration algorithm termed Multi-Source Self-Calibration (MSSC) which can be used after standard phase referencing on wide-field VLBI observations. This is tested on a 1.6 GHz wide-field VLBI data set of the Hubble Deep Field-North and the Hubble Flanking Fields. Methods. MSSC uses multiple target sources detected in the field via standard phase referencing techniques and modifies the visibili- ties so that each data set approximates to a point source. These are combined to increase the signal to noise and permit self-calibration. In principle, this should allow residual phase changes caused by the troposphere and ionosphere to be corrected. By means of faceting, the technique can also be used for direction dependent calibration. Results. Phase corrections, derived using MSSC, were applied to a wide-field VLBI data set of the HDF-N comprising of 699 phase centres. MSSC was found to perform considerably better than standard phase referencing and single source self-calibration. All detected sources exhibited dramatic improvements in dynamic range. Using MSSC, one source reached the detection threshold taking the total detected sources to twenty. 60% of these sources can now be imaged with uniform weighting compared to just 45% with standard phase referencing. The Parseltongue code which implements MSSC has been released and made publicly available to the astronomical community (https://github.com/jradcliffe5/multi_self_cal).

The Minimal Model of a Diphoton Resonance: Production without Gluon Couplings

description: We consider the phenomenology of a resonance that couples to photons but not gluons, and estimate its production rate at the LHC from photon-photon fusion in elastic pp scattering using the effective photon and narrow width approximations. The rate is sensitive only to the mass, the spin, the total width of the resonance, and its branching fraction to photons. Production cross sections of 5-10 fb at 13 TeV can be easily accommodated for a 750 GeV resonance with partial photon width of 15 GeV. This provides the minimal explanation of the reported diphoton anomaly in the early LHC Run II data.

Charters, laws, and school accountability: A multi-state perspective
Creators: name: Song, Wei
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: The charter school movement has been the most prominent and controversial education reform in the United States in the last fifteen years. Advocates believe that by granting more autonomy to charter schools, they are subject to higher accountability standards and could provide better education. Thus the public schools are forced to compete and the deteriorating public school system will be revitalized. Charter school accountability is the centerpiece of charter school reform, which is based on the premise of the "autonomy for accountability" bargain. Although numerous studies have evaluated the education outcomes of charter schools, very few have examined the relationship between charter school autonomy and accountability in a systematic way. This dissertation examines the impact of charter school autonomy on school accountability empirically, through both qualitative and quantitative approaches. Under the current charter schooling system, the operation autonomy enjoyed by charter schools varies based on different charter school laws across states. Further, within the framework of state charter laws, charter school autonomy also differs at site level as specified by individual school charter, which is the ultimate legal document that governs school operation. Thus the qualitative case study explores the effect of different charter designs on school success by comparing the charters of sixteen individual schools; and the quantitative study utilizes panel data in thirteen states to examine the impact of state charter laws on charter school achievement. The findings suggest that fewer entry barriers or more operation autonomy do not necessarily lead to higher charter school performance, while the authorizing agencies' selection of the charter school candidates is more important for school success. The conclusion part further discusses the importance of implementation in policy outcomes.

The development of homeland security partnerships: A comparative analysis from the financial security arena
Creators: name: Kumar, Amit
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: The development of three partnerships in the Banking and Finance Critical Infrastructure Sector of homeland security is examined, analyzed, and compared, and implications for theory drawn from such analysis. The public-public partnership comprises the Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The public-private partnership consists of two partnerships, one between the Financial and Banking Infrastructure Information Committee (FBIIC) and the Financial Services Sector Coordinating Council (FSSCC), and the other between the Department of Homeland Security and the Financial and Banking Sector. The private-private partnership is a partnership amongst twelve global private sector Wolfsberg banks. A multiple case study exploratory research design is used. Data is obtained from in-depth interviews and archival sources. Existing knowledge on networks is used to examine (a) the development of three homeland security partnerships; (b) the role of the government in homeland security partnership development, information sharing processes across partnerships, and accountability mechanisms across partnerships and (c) implications of the findings for public administration practice. Government plays a key role in network development---as network builder in the public-public partnership; as network manager, network participant, network coordinator, and regulator in the public-private partnership; and as regulator in the private-private partnership. Political, managerial, and technical barriers to information sharing in public-public and the DHS-private sector partnership hampered partnership development; absence of such barriers in the FBIIC-FSSCC partnership and the Wolfsberg partnership contributed to partnership development. Political accountability promoted partnership development in the public-public and public-private partnerships; hierarchical accountability hampered partnership development in the public-public and public-private partnerships; professional accountability hampered partnership development in the public-public partnership and promoted partnership development in the public-private and private-private partnerships; legal accountability promoted partnership development in the public-private and private-private partnerships. An imposition of a network structure on an existing bureaucracy helped explain several aspects of partnership development in the public-public partnership.
