description: This paper is devoted to the analysis of the distribution of the total magnetic quantum number $M$ in a relativistic subshell with $N$ equivalent electrons of momentum $j$. This distribution is analyzed through its cumulants and through their generating function, for which an analytical expression is provided. This function also allows us to get the values of the cumulants at any order. Such values are useful to obtain the moments at various orders. Since the cumulants of the distinct subshells are additive this study directly applies to any relativistic configuration. Recursion relations on the generating function are given. It is shown that the generating function of the magnetic quantum number distribution may be expressed as a n-th derivative of a polynomial. This leads to recurrence relations for this distribution which are very efficient even in the case of large $j$ or $N$. The magnetic quantum number distribution is numerically studied using the Gram-Charlier and Edgeworth expansions. The inclusion of high-order terms may improve the accuracy of the Gram-Charlier representation for instance when a small and a large angular momenta coexist in the same configuration. However such series does not exhibit convergence when high orders are considered and the account for the first two terms often provides a fair approximation of the magnetic quantum number distribution. The Edgeworth series offers an interesting alternative though this expansion is also divergent and of asymptotic nature.

description: Η αυτορρυθμιζόμενη μάθηση αντανακλά μια περιοχή εξαίρετου εμπειρικού ενδιαφέροντος, καθώς η έρευνα έχει καταδείξει πως η ικανότητα να αυτορρυθμίζει κάποιος τη μάθησή του είναι απαραίτητη για την ακαδημαϊκή επιτυχία. Στην προσέγγιση της μάθηση εξίσου καθοριστικός συμβαλλόμενος παράγοντας θεωρούνται και τα κίνητρα επίτευξης των μαθητών τα οποία όχι μόνο ενεργοποιούν και κατευθύνουν τη συμπεριφορά προς το επίτευγμα, αλλά επίσης αποτελούν ισχυρό προγνωστικό δείκτη της ακαδημαϊκής επιτυχίας. Μέσα από την ερευνητική βιβλιογραφία αποδεικνύεται πως οι μαθητές με μαθησιακές δυσκολίες αντιμετωπίζουν πολλές δυσκολίες στη μάθησή τους εξαιτίας των ελλειμμάτων που παρουσιάζουν στις παραπάνω δεξιότητες. Η παρούσα ερευνητική εργασία εξετάζει την αυτορρυθμιστική ικανότητα, τα κίνητρα επίτευξης και τη σχολική επίδοση των μαθητών με και χωρίς μαθησιακές δυσκολίες. Ειδικότερα, επιχειρείται η σύγκριση των κινήτρων επίτευξης, της σχολικής επίδοσης και της ικανότητας αυτορρύθμισης των μαθητών με μαθησιακές δυσκολίες (Μ.Δ.) και των μαθητών τυπικής ανάπτυξης (Τ.Α.), αρχικά, κατά τη διάρκεια της μαθησιακής διαδικασίας και έπειτα και στον κοινωνικό-συναισθηματικό τομέα. Τα αποτελέσματα της έρευνας κατέδειξαν πως συγκριτικά με τους μαθητές Τ.Α., οι μαθητές με Μ.Δ. διαθέτουν χαμηλότερες αυτορρυθμιστικές ικανότητες και μειωμένα κίνητρα επίτευξης που συμβάλλουν στις χαμηλές μαθησιακές τους επιδόσεις.
description: Self-regulated learning reflects an area of exceptional empirical interest, as research has shown that one’s ability to self-regulate their own learning is essential for academic success. In the approach of learning, equally decisive contracting factor is considered to be the achievement motivation which not only activates and directs behavior to achievement, but also makes a strong predictor of academic success. The literature research indicates that students with learning disabilities cope with many difficulties in their learning due to the deficits they manifest in the above skills. The present study examines the ability of self-regulation, the achievement motivation and school achievement among students with and without learning difficulties. In particular, it is attempted a comparison between achievement motivation, school achievement and the ability of self-regulation among students with learning difficulties (LD) and students of typical development (TD) in the beginning, during the learning process and later in the socio-emotional field. The results of this research revealed that students with LD exhibit lower self-regulation skills and achievement motivation in comparison with students of TD, which in turn contributes to low school achievement for them.
Comparison between resistive and collisionless double tearing modes for nearby resonant surfaces

description: The linear instability and nonlinear dynamics of collisional (resistive) and collisionless (due to electron inertia) double tearing modes (DTMs) are compared with the use of a reduced cylindrical model of a tokamak plasma. We focus on cases where two q = 2 resonant surfaces are located a small distance apart. It is found that regardless of the magnetic reconnection mechanism, resistivity or electron inertia, the fastest growing linear eigenmodes may have high poloidal mode numbers m ~ 10. The spectrum of unstable modes tends to be broader in the collisionless case. In the nonlinear regime, it is shown that in both cases fast growing high-m DTMs lead to an annular collapse involving small magnetic island structures. In addition, collisionless DTMs exhibit multiple reconnection cycles due to reversibility of collisionless reconnection and strong ExB flows. Collisionless reconnection leads to a saturated stable state, while in the collisional case resistive decay keeps the system weakly dynamic by driving it back towards the unstable equilibrium maintained by a source term.

description: We point out that large composite spin-orbital fluctuations in Mott insulators with $t_{2g}$ orbital degeneracy are a manifestation of quantum entanglement of spin and orbital variables. This results in a dynamical nature of the spin superexchange interactions, which fluctuate over positive and negative values, and leads to an apparent violation of the Goodenough-Kanamori rules.

By means of the Fourier frequency localization and Bony's paraproduct decomposition, it is proved that strong solution $(u,b)$ can be extended after $t=T$ if either $u\in L^q_T(\dot B^{0}_{p,\infty})$ with $\frac{2}{q}+\frac{3}{p}\le 1$ and $b\in L^1_T(\dot B^{0}_{\infty,\infty})$, or $(ω, J)\in L^q_T(\dot B^{0}_{p,\infty})$ with $\frac{2}{q}+\frac{3}{p}\le 2$, where $ω(t)=\na\times u $ denotes the vorticity of the velocity and $J=\na\times b$ the current density.

description: We report the observation of nonlinear anomalous Hall effect (NLAHE) in the multilayered organic conductor $α$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$I$_3$ in the charge order (CO) insulating phase just under the critical pressure for transition into two-dimensional (2D) massless Dirac fermion (DF) phase. We successfully extracted the finite nonlinear Hall voltage proportional to square current at zero magnetic field. The observed NLAHE features, current direction dependence and correlation with CO, are consistent with the previous estimation assuming 2D massive DF with a pair of tilted Dirac cones. This is the first observation of topological transport in organic conductors, and also the first example of NLAHE in the electronic phase with spontaneous symmetry breaking.

description: Galaxy clusters host the largest particle accelerators in the Universe: Shock waves in the intracluster medium (ICM), a hot and ionised plasma, that accelerate particles to high energies. Radio observations pick up synchrotron emission in the ICM, proving the existence of accelerated cosmic-ray electrons. However, a sign of cosmic-ray protons, in form of $γ$-rays. remains undetected. This is know as the missing $γ$-ray problem and it directly challenges the shock acceleration mechanism at work in the ICM. Over the last decade, theoretical and numerical studies focused on improving our knowledge on the microphysics that govern the shock acceleration process in the ICM. These new models are able to predict a $γ$-ray signal, produced by shock accelerated cosmic-ray protons, below the detection limits set modern $γ$-ray observatories. In this review, we summarise the latest advances in solving the missing $γ$-ray problem.

United States policy towards Iraq, 1988-1990
Creators: name: Azmi, Khaled
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: The cease-fire in the Iran-Iraq war changed the strategic environment in the Gulf region. It posed a challenge for United States policy towards Iraq. Emerging as a strong regional power from the war, Iraq was determined to play a leading role in regional affairs. The United States realized that normal relations with Iraq would serve American interests. U.S. policy objective was to moderate Iraqi behavior by proposing economic and political incentives to Baghdad. The policy however failed. This thesis investigates United States policy towards Iraq in the period from August 1988 to August 1990. It addresses how the United States dealt with Iraq during this period. It is an attempt to reconstruct the logic and behavior of American policy towards Iraq. The research depends on American sources. Interviews were conducted with State Department officals. American Government documents and press reports constitute the second source. The thesis deals with how the American policy was formulated, implemented, and failed. It is difficult to pin point the reason for the failure of the policy. The public record does not offer much help. The policy of engaging Iraq, rather than isolating it, was correct. However, it is difficult to explain why the policy did not change, when it became apparent, in Spring 1990, that it was not working. A complete answer must wait the first-hand testimony of officials who made the decisions and the unveiling of the complete historical record.

description: In this Letter we update our previous result on the test of CPT symmetry with Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) measurements. A CPT violating interaction in the photon sector ${\cal L}_{cs} \sim p_μA_ν\tilde F^{μν}$ gives rise to a rotation of the polarization vectors of the propagating CMB photons. Recently the WMAP group used the newly released polarization data of WMAP5 to measure this rotation angle $Δα$ and obtained $Δα=-1.7\pm2.1$ deg ($1σ$). However, in their analysis the BOOMERanG 2003 data is not included. Here we revisit this issue by combining the full data of WMAP5 and BOOMERanG 2003 angular power spectra for the measurement of this rotation angle $Δα$ and find that $Δα=-2.6\pm1.9$ deg at a 68% confidence level.

description: We present EgoACO, a deep neural architecture for video action recognition that learns to pool action-context-object descriptors from frame level features by leveraging the verb-noun structure of action labels in egocentric video datasets. The core component of EgoACO is class activation pooling (CAP), a differentiable pooling operation that combines ideas from bilinear pooling for fine-grained recognition and from feature learning for discriminative localization. CAP uses self-attention with a dictionary of learnable weights to pool from the most relevant feature regions. Through CAP, EgoACO learns to decode object and scene context descriptors from video frame features. For temporal modeling in EgoACO, we design a recurrent version of class activation pooling termed Long Short-Term Attention (LSTA). LSTA extends convolutional gated LSTM with built-in spatial attention and a re-designed output gate. Action, object and context descriptors are fused by a multi-head prediction that accounts for the inter-dependencies between noun-verb-action structured labels in egocentric video datasets. EgoACO features built-in visual explanations, helping learning and interpretation. Results on the two largest egocentric action recognition datasets currently available, EPIC-KITCHENS and EGTEA, show that by explicitly decoding action-context-object descriptors, EgoACO achieves state-of-the-art recognition performance.

description: We present the results of a search for additional exoplanets in all multiplanetary systems discovered to date, employing a logarithmic spacing between planets in our Solar System known as the Titius-Bode (TB) relation. We use the Markov Chain Monte Carlo method and separately analyse 229 multiplanetary systems that house at least three or more confirmed planets. We find that the planets in $\sim53\%$ of these systems adhere to a logarithmic spacing relation remarkably better than the Solar System planets. Using the TB relation, we predict the presence of 426 additional exoplanets in 229 multiplanetary systems, of which 197 candidates are discovered by interpolation and 229 by extrapolation. Altogether, 47 predicted planets are located within the habitable zone (HZ) of their host stars, and five of the 47 planets have a maximum mass limit of 0.1-2$M_{\oplus}$ and a maximum radius lower than 1.25$R_{\oplus}$. Our results and prediction of additional planets agree with previous studies' predictions; however, we improve the uncertainties in the orbital period measurement for the predicted planets significantly.

description: The accuracy and stability of the Caltech-Cornell pseudospectral code is evaluated using the KST representation of the Einstein evolution equations. The basic "Mexico City Tests" widely adopted by the numerical relativity community are adapted here for codes based on spectral methods. Exponential convergence of the spectral code is established, apparently limited only by numerical roundoff error. A general expression for the growth of errors due to finite machine precision is derived, and it is shown that this limit is achieved here for the linear plane-wave test. All of these tests are found to be stable, except for simulations of high amplitude gauge waves with nontrivial shift.

Seaschool : a case study of education, ecology and economics
Creators: name: Baron, Nancy Elizabeth
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: Seaschool is a one day marine studies program which takes place in Vancouver Harbour. This program explores interdependencies between economics, environments and ourselves. Seaschool is the product of interdisciplinary graduate studies, interpreted through my perspecitves as a science educator and translated into a program offered by the Vancouver Public Aquarium. Seaschool was developed within the educational context of the "Year 2000's Framework for Learning" aims for relevent, learner-centred programming. Seaschool integrates traditional single subject studies and takes a systems approach to learning by emphasizing "connections". This case study takes a constructivist view of program development from the perspective of the program developer. The study traces the origins of Seaschool and the evolution that it has undergone from its inception in 1990 through 1991 and 1992. The strengths and limitations of the programmer are embodied in a program. Consequently incorporating collective knowledge and input from a range of stakeholders i.e. other educators, staff, teachers and students improved Seaschool's content and teaching techniques. Nevertheless the programmer plays an important on-going role in evaluating input and ensuring that the directions the program takes are consistent with the program's objectives. As the programmer I have analyzed who and what influenced me, documented the changes to the program, outlined the mechanisms for change and summarized what I have learned about program development. The data includes excerpts from a written program log, written and oral feed-back and evaluations from teachers, students and co-workers, transcripts from in-depth interviews with teacher participants as well as connection charts completed by program participants. I found through the evaluations that the most important connections that participants made, were the ones they made themselves. I learned that the most effective way to make Seaschool connections between ecology and economics relevant to the participants was through learner centred approaches which encouraged participants to start with their own context and build on their experiences of the day. Therefore I learned to not be overly directive in teaching my own personal construction of connections and to maximize the students' and teachers' opportunites to participate even if it meant not being able to cover all of the content and concepts of interdepencies that I considered important. The greatest value of Seaschool is the experience itself and the multitude of opportunities it offers to make classroom learning relevant to participants.

description: We compare two different experimental techniques for the magnetic-sub-level preparation of metastable $^4$He in the $2^3$S$_1$ level in a supersonic beam, namely magnetic hexapole focusing and optical pumping by laser radiation. At a beam velocity of $v = 830\,$m/s, we deduce from a comparison with a particle trajectory simulation that up to $99\,$\% of the metastable atoms are in the $M_{J^{''}} = +1$ sub-level after magnetic hexapole focusing. Using laser optical pumping via the $2^3$P$_2-2^3$S$_1$ transition, we achieve a maximum efficiency of $94\pm3\,$\% for the population of the $M_{J^{''}} = +1$ sub-level. For the first time, we show that laser optical pumping via the $2^3$P$_1-2^3$S$_1$ transition can be used to selectively populate each of the three $M_{J^{''}}$ sub-levels ($M_{J^{''}} = $ -1, 0, +1). We also find that laser optical pumping leads to higher absolute atom numbers in specific $M_{J^{''}}$ sub-levels than magnetic hexapole focusing.

description: Incoming optical interferometers will allow spectro-imaging at high angular resolution. Non-homothetic Fizeau concept combines good sensitivity and high spectral resolution capabilities. However, one critical issue is the design of the beam recombination scheme, at the heart of the instrument. We tackle the possibility of reducing the number of pixels that are coding the fringes by compressing the pupil plane. Shrinking the number of pixels -- which drastically increases with the number of recombined telescopes -- is indeed a key issue that enables to reach higher limiting magnitude, but also allows to lower the required spectral resolution and fasten the fringes reading process. By means of numerical simulations, we study the performances of existing estimators of the visibility with respect to the compression process. We show that, not only the model based estimator lead to better signal to noise ratio (SNR) performances than the Fourier ones, but above all it is the only one which prevent from introducing baseline mixing biases in the visibilities as the pupil plane compression rate increases. Furthermore, we show that moderate compression allows to keep the visibilities SNR unaffected. In the light of these conclusions, we propose an optimized pupil arrangements for 6 and 8 beam recombiners.

description: The purpose of this postgraduate work is the study of the policy of the Young Turks against the «Romioi», through the «Romioi's press» and the testimonies of the Young Turks leaders in the period, starting in the 1908 up to 1918. A comparative study of the resources were used in order to indicate the opposing version while examining the crucial decade of the Committee of Union and Progress's unique administration. First of all, we analyze the political relations and the special causes of the conflict between the two sides, as well as the Crete's issue in association with the boycott against the «Romioi» between 1908 and 1911. Subsequently, we present the attitude of the «Romioi» and the measures taken by the Young Turk's government during the Balkan Wars, which conclude to the island's territorial integrity and the persecutions of the «Romioi's» community from 1913 to 1914. Finally, we examine the deportation and the annihilation's program of the «Romioi's» community during the World War I, ending up chronologically after the Armistice of Mudros.

description: In this paper, we obtain general representations for the joint distributions and copulas of arbitrary dependent random variables absolutely continuous with respect to the product of given one-dimensional marginal distributions. The characterizations obtained in the paper represent joint distributions of dependent random variables and their copulas as sums of $U$-statistics in independent random variables. We show that similar results also hold for expectations of arbitrary statistics in dependent random variables. As a corollary of the results, we obtain new representations for multivariate divergence measures as well as complete characterizations of important classes of dependent random variables that give, in particular, methods for constructing new copulas and modeling different dependence structures. The results obtained in the paper provide a device for reducing the analysis of convergence in distribution of a sum of a double array of dependent random variables to the study of weak convergence for a double array of their independent copies. Weak convergence in the dependent case is implied by similar asymptotic results under independence together with convergence to zero of one of a series of dependence measures including the multivariate extension of Pearson's correlation, the relative entropy or other multivariate divergence measures. A closely related result involves conditions for convergence in distribution of $m$-dimensional statistics $h(X_t,X_{t+1},...,X_{t+m-1})$ of time series $\{X_t\}$ in terms of weak convergence of $h(ξ_t,ξ_{t+1},...,ξ_{t+m-1})$, where $\{ξ_t\}$ is a sequence of independent copies of $X_t'$s, and convergence to zero of measures of intertemporal dependence in $\{X_t\}$. The tools used include new sharp estimates for the distance between the distribution function of an arbitrary statistic in dependent random variables and the distribution function of the statistic in independent copies of the random variables in terms of the measures of dependence of the random variables. Furthermore, we obtain new sharp complete decoupling moment and probability inequalities for dependent random variables in terms of their dependence characteristics.

description: Based on the calculation of survival probabilities, we discuss the problem of extracting the value of $G_{3P}$, the triple Pomeron 'bare' coupling constant, by comparing the large rapidity gap single high mass diffraction data in proton-proton scattering and $J/Ψ$ photo and DIS production. For p-p scattering the calculation in a three amplitude rescattering eikonal model, predicts the survival probability to be an order of magnitude smaller than for the two amplitude case. The survival probabilities calculation for photo and DIS $J/Ψ$ production is made in a dedicated model. In this process we show that, even though its survival probability is considerably larger than in p-p scattering, its value is below unity and cannot be neglected in the data analysis. We argue that, regardless of the uncertainties in the suggested procedure, its outcome is important both with regards to a realistic estimate of $G_{3P}$, and the survival probabilities relevant to LHC experiments.

description: In this paper, the relativistic quantum dynamics of a scalar particle under the effect of Lorentz symmetry violation determined by a tensor $(K_{F})_{μ\,ν\,α\,β}$ out of the Standard Model Extension is investigated. We see that the bound-state solution of the modified Klein-Gordon equation can be obtained, and the spectrum of energy and the wave function depends on the Lorentz symmetry breaking parameters

description: We study the quiet Sun magnetic fields using spectropolarimetric observations of the infrared and visible Fe I lines at 6301.5, 6302.5, 15648 and 15653 A. Magnetic field strengths and filling factors are inferred by the simultaneous fit of the observed Stokes profiles under the MISMA hypothesis. The observations cover an intra-network region at the solar disk center. We analyze 2280 Stokes profiles whose polarization signals are above noise in the two spectral ranges, which correspond to 40% of the field of view. Most of these profiles can be reproduced only with a model atmosphere including 3 magnetic components with very different field strengths, which indicates the co-existence of kG and sub-kG fields in our 1.5" resolution elements. We measure an unsigned magnetic flux density of 9.6 G considering the full field of view. Half of the pixels present magnetic fields with mixed polarities in the resolution element. The fraction of mixed polarities increases as the polarization weakens. We compute the probability density function of finding each magnetic field strength. It has a significant contribution of kG field strengths, which concentrates most of the observed magnetic flux and energy. This kG contribution has a preferred magnetic polarity, while the polarity of the weak fields is balanced.

description: Mount Athos, as a source of spirituality, musical interpretation and evolution, carves its own path in time. Elements such as musical notation, musical manuscripts, composers and scribes are a continuation of this Mount Athos ecclesiastical tradition. Archimandrite Hierotheos Tsonakas the Philotheitis is also part of this uninterrupted tradition. In the present study, his biography and his published work are recorded for the first time. The study also comprises a comparison of two pieces contained in his Mount Athos Music Bouquet and Patriarchal Music Ark, which are analyzed according to the theory of the Byzantine modes, the makamat of Ottoman and Arabo-Persian music, as well as to the dhromoi of the Greek traditional and urban folk music. The contribution of the Archimandrite Hierotheos Tsonakas to the editorial work of Greek ecclesiastical music and Secular Art Music of Constantinople proves to be very important and evolving through many decades.

Homothallism in the Sordariaceae : Mating-type loci in selected species of Neurospora, Anixiella, and Gelasinospora
Creators: name: Beatty, Nicholas P.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: The mating-type genes in Neurospora crassa, called "idiomorphs" and designated A and "a", control entry into the sexual cycle and aspects of meiosis. In heterothallic species, nuclei with unlike mating-types must come together before karyogamy and meiosis can occur. Homothallic species, however, can enter the sexual cycle spontaneously and without a mating event per se. Two homothallic classes exist in Neurospora, those with only the A-specific sequence (the majority) and those with both the A-specific and "a"-specific sequence (Neurospora terricola). Neurospora terricola and a number of homothallic Gelasinospora and Anixiella species are self-fertile but harbour both A and "a" idiomorphs in a single nucleus. Of what use are mating-types to organisms that do not mate? A molecular analysis of the mating-type loci of selected Sordariaceae homothallics has investigated the degree to which the homothallic A and "a" genes are similar to those of heterothallic and A-type homothallic species of Neurospora. Mapping of the N.terricola, Gelasinospora, and Anixiella mating-type loci has demonstrated that the majority of the N.crassa A and "a" sequences are conserved in these homothallics with the exception of approximately 1.1 kb of A absent in N.terricola and approximately 600bp of "a" absent in all homothallics examined. Further analysis was made of the sequences that flank the mating-type genes themselves to further define the locus. The sequence that in N.crassa flanks both A and "a" idiomorphs to the left is present in the genomes of all homothallic species examined. In most of the homothallics examined, this flank sequence is contiguous with the "a" idiomorph. A similar right flank sequence is absent in Sordariaceae homothallics. The ORF portions of the N.terricola A and "a" genes were amplified by PCR and sequenced. A sequence comparison of N.crassa and N.terricola A ORFs has demonstrated an average of 89% DNA identity. Functional analysis has shown that the N.terricola ORF A confers function (ability to mate with strains of opposite mating-type and ability to form perithecia) when transformed into N.crassa sterile mutant spheroplasts.

description: The linear micro-instabilities driving turbulent transport in magnetized fusion plasmas (as well as the respective nonlinear saturation mechanisms) are known to be sensitive with respect to various physical parameters characterizing the background plasma and the magnetic equilibrium. Therefore, uncertainty quantification is essential for achieving predictive numerical simulations of plasma turbulence. However, the high computational costs of the required gyrokinetic simulations and the large number of parameters render standard Monte Carlo techniques intractable. To address this problem, we propose a multi-fidelity Monte Carlo approach in which we employ data-driven low-fidelity models that exploit the structure of the underlying problem such as low intrinsic dimension and anisotropic coupling of the stochastic inputs. The low-fidelity models are efficiently constructed via sensitivity-driven dimension-adaptive sparse grid interpolation using both the full set of uncertain inputs and subsets comprising only selected, important parameters. We illustrate the power of this method by applying it to two plasma turbulence problems with up to $14$ stochastic parameters, demonstrating that it is up to four orders of magnitude more efficient than standard Monte Carlo methods measured in single-core performance, which translates into a runtime reduction from around eight days to one hour on 240 cores on parallel machines.
