description: FN CMa is visually double with a separation of about 0.6arcsec. Sixty high-cadence VLT/UVES spectra permit the A and B components to be disentangled, as the relative contribution of each star to the total light entering the spectrograph fluctuates between exposures due to changes in seeing. Component A exhibits rapid line-profile variations, leading us to attribute the photometric variability seen by HIPPARCOS (with a derived P=0.08866d) to this component. From a total of 122 archival and new echelle spectra it is shown that component A is an SB1 binary with an orbital period of 117.55 days. The eccentricity of 0.6 may result in tidal modulation of the pulsation(s) of component Aa.

Muslim educators’ perspectives on human learning and development in a Sunni Muslim mosque school in Canada
Creators: name: Alkouatli, Claire
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: This study addressed a gap in the literature regarding Muslim educators’ perspectives on learning and development, and the practices they utilize and create with their students. Participant observation and active interviewing at a Sunni Muslim mosque school in Canada were the methods used to examine four educators’ perspectives on learning and development and how those perspectives were enacted in social practices. Sociocultural theory (Vygotsky, 1987, 1994) framed the study, defining learning and development as socially, culturally, and historically situated and mediated by social practices. Observations and interviews were analyzed using reflexive, ongoing thematic analysis that aimed to balance the analysis between the etic perspective provided by theory and the emic perspective of the researcher as a practicing Muslim. Three main themes were identified. First, for these educators, learning and development was interwoven with the Islamic system of principles and practices and contained unique developmental goals. Second, these educators used distinct Islamic social practices to mediate the Islamic system. Third, the pedagogies educators used in the classrooms, as integral components of the social practices, included some that were intrinsic to the Islamic social practices, some that the educators developed themselves, and some that emerged from the secular cultural context. The ways in which the educators used pedagogies to mediate the Islamic system had the potential to facilitate learning and development. Further research is required to examine how these pedagogies serve to expand and/or constrain learning and the cognitive, social, emotional and spiritual development of Muslim children. Limitations of this study included a small sample size, researcher biases against less-creative pedagogical approaches, like close-ended questioning, and partiality toward Islamic practices. As the learning and development of Muslim children is linked to the Islamic system of principles and practices, attention needs to be paid to enhancing developmental potential within this system, enriching intrinsic pedagogies and incorporating and Islamizing select extrinsic pedagogies. As mediators of both the Islamic system and secular cultural contexts, educators have the potential to enhance children’s development as Muslims, as agentic members of multiple cultural contexts, and as active participants in the re-interpretation of Islamic principles for the current age.

description: The ubiquity of substructure in the stellar halo has already been demonstrated by the SDSS and 2MASS and future surveys promise to explore the halo in ever more detail. This paper examines what can be learnt from current and future photometric-databases using group-finding techniques. We compare groups recovered from a sample of M-giants from 2MASS with those found in synthetic surveys of simulated $Λ$CDM stellar halos and demonstrate broad consistency. We also find that these recovered groups are likely to represent the majority of high-luminosity ($\log(L/L_{Sun})>6.67$) satellites accreted within the last 10 Gyr and on orbits with apocenters within 100 kpc. However the sensitivity of the M-giant survey to accretion events that were either ancient, from low-luminosity objects or those on radial orbits is limited because of the low number of stars, bias towards high-metallicity stars and the shallow depth. We examine the extent to which these limitations are addressed by current and future surveys, in particular catalogues of main-sequence turn-off (MSTO) stars from SDSS and LSST, and of RR-Lyrae stars from LSST or PanSTARRS. The MSTO surveys are more sensitive to low-luminosity events ($\log(L/L_{Sun}~5$ or less) than the 2MASS M-giant sample, while the RR-Lyrae surveys, with superior depth, are good at detecting events on highly eccentric orbits. When combined we expect these photometric surveys to provide a comprehensive picture of the last 10 Gyr of Galactic accretion. Events older than this are too phase mixed to be discovered and would require additional information such as velocity and chemical abundance.

Polyphosphate : a novel negative regulator of complement and its therapeutic potential in age-related macular degeneration
Creators: name: Ocariza, Linnette Mae
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: The innate mammalian response to injury involves the initiation of activation of two major blood-borne proteolytic systems; coagulation and complement. Recent studies have revealed that there is considerable crosstalk and interplay between these two systems. Polyphosphate (polyP) is a naturally occurring inorganic linear polymer that co-regulates these two systems, acting as a promoter of coagulation and an inhibitor of complement. This thesis aims to further characterize the mechanisms by which polyP regulates the complement system, and to test its physiological relevance in a model of human disease, age-related macular degeneration (AMD), the pathogenesis of which involves excess complement activation and oxidative stress. Based on data from our lab and studies in bacteria that polyP dampens complement activation and interferes with oxidative stress, I hypothesized that polyP would protect against AMD. To test this hypothesis, I used hemolytic assays to measure the complement activity in response to polyP, in vitro studies with AMD-associated cell lines to examine protective properties of polyP, and an in vivo model of AMD to evaluate the therapeutic efficacy of polyP. I showed that polyP dampens complement activation by interfering with the terminal pathway of complement, and that it also interferes with oxidative stress-induced cellular damage. The mechanisms by which it exerts this effect have not yet been determined. However, in vivo, in rodent models of AMD, polyP protects against laser-induced choroidal neovascularization (CNV), a feature of AMD, with reduced deposition of complement. An agent such as polyP, that simultaneously suppresses complement activation and protects against oxidative stress, holds potential therapeutic value. The findings in this thesis raise awareness of the potential importance of a ubiquitous, naturally occurring inorganic compound that has largely been overlooked. Most important, the findings reveal a promising use for polyP as a treatment for AMD, a common and devastating disease that affects millions of people worldwide.
Development and Evaluation of Nonradioactive Methods for Monitoring T Lymphocyte Response to Equine Arteritis Virus (EAV) in Horses
Creators: name: Kyomuhangi, Annet
Publisher: name: University of Kentucky Libraries
Year: 2019

description: Abstract:
Target cell lysis is the hallmark of immune effector responses of cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL), natural killer (NK) cells, and monocytes. The most commonly used assay to measure target cell lysis is the 51Cr release assay and is considered the ‘gold standard’. However, this assay has many disadvantages that limit its use by most laboratories. Thus, several alternative assays have been developed. Some of these alternative assays are more sensitive, easy to perform and do not use radioactive elements.
In this study, four of these assays were evaluated for their ability to detect antigen- specific CTL responses in equine blood. Three long-term equine arteritis virus (EAV) carrier stallions, two vaccinated stallions and one naïve stallion were included in this study. Peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) were isolated from whole blood collected of these stallions to be used as effector cells. The PBMCs were stimulated with EAV in vitro for 7-10 days to generate antigen-specific effector cells. The granzyme B assay, the Carboxyfluorescein succinimidyl ester (CFSE)/7-Aminoactinomycin D (7AAD) assay and the Lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) assay were performed using these effector cells and autologous equine dermal cells (isolated from each stallion) as target cells.
The first two assays (i.e., granzyme B and CFSE/7AAD assays) were difficult to optimize for this study because they work well with non-adherent targets and require immediate flow cytometry analysis. The LDH assay, however detected CTL lysis in one of the two vaccinated stallions at day 99 post vaccination and no response was detected in PBMCs isolated from carrier stallions and control stallion. Based on these findings, the LDH assay is the most suitable assay since it works well with adherent target cells, it produces quantitative data, and is ideal for high-throughput screening.

As in a weakly coupled plasma, the diffusion coefficient perpendicular to the field exhibits a Bohm-like 1/B-behavior in the strong-field limit, but its overall scaling is substantially different. The diffusion coefficient parallel to the field is strongly affected by the field as well and also approaches a 1/B scaling, in striking contrast to earlier predictions.

Responses to and interpretation of anti-Muslim racism in Canada : a community perspective
Creators: name: Gova, Alnoor
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: Against the backdrop of rising levels of anti-“Muslim” racism (aka Islamophobia) in Canada, coupled with the nation-state’s targeting and surveillance of these communities, my dissertation sets out to interpret the responses to this racism by the affected communities themselves. In this study, I employ qualitative methodology within a critical race theoretical framework informed by indigenous and post-colonial theory. After inviting participation from self-identified Muslim and Arab community organizations, whether outwardly responding to racism or not, over a one year period (2011-2012), I interviewed eleven diverse organizations, all of which are working in various capabilities and focus on community capacity building – including in the sectors of professional mentorship and networking, activities such as multi/inter-faith programming, social services, and advocacy for their communities. I asked participants to share their narratives and views on a wide array of questions: their assessment of the situation of their communities and constituencies in Canada, their experiences with “community government,” and their assessment of the “good Muslim/bad Muslim” nexus. I classify data I gathered into a heuristic of three types of responses: direct, status and native informant, and argue that although most of them fall into the range of status, it is direct responses – ones that commence and attend to racial injustice – that can have the most positive impact in terms of overall responses to systemic anti-Muslim racism.
On criminalized livelihoods and community forestry : a case study of traditional forest use by tribal communities in South Gujarat, India
Creators: name: Singh, Monika
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: In India, the Indian Forest Acts of 1865 and 1878 transferred the ownership of all forest land and its resources to the colonial government. These were replaced by the Indian Forest Act of 1927, currently in force. Successive legislations continued to alienate resources from communities. This inadvertently criminalized the traditional forest-based livelihoods and cultural practices of local tribal communities. Tribal communities continue to follow their local traditions, but lack the voice to protect their culture against non-local interventions. This denial of participation to tribal communities in managing forest resources has led to their alienation from the very resource they depend upon. The Joint Forest Management (JFM) programme was promulgated in 1991 to increase local forest dwellers’ participation in forest management. The Forest Rights Act 2006 (FRA) attempted to address historical injustice meted to forest dependent communities. These policy level initiatives, de jure, could be viewed as an effort to partially restore the primacy of forests in the livelihoods of forest dwelling communities. However, JFM and the FRA continue to be subservient to the Indian Forest Act, 1927, and no substantial change is visible. Using a case-study approach and purposive sampling, four villages in Gujarat State were selected for the study. Data was collected in 1995-97 and 2011 on people’s livelihoods, cultural practices, forest access and restrictions, awareness and participation in governmental, and community forestry activities. These data were compared to ascertain changes and continuity. Results showed that despite JFM, the basic governance of forest management remains unchanged. Forest related cultural practices and livelihoods of local tribal communities continue to be marginalized and criminalized. The thesis argues that the restorative efforts of JFM and FRA fail to adequately uphold human rights of tribal communities. It further offers an analysis of the impact of such provisions on the well-being of the tribal community. Based on a concept of criminalization and empirical findings, the aspect of illegitimate illegality (legitimate activities labelled as illegal) is teased out from corruption. Using elements of Aboriginal Forestry, the Classification of Decriminalization framework is developed to recognize and to respect tribal people’s cultural identities.

description: A solution of the Bohr Hamiltonian appropriate for triaxial shapes, involving a Davidson potential in beta and a steep harmonic oscillator in gamma, centered around gamma=30 degrees, is developed. Analytical expressions for spectra and B(E2) transition rates ranging from a triaxial vibrator to the rigid triaxial rotator are obtained and compared to experiment. Using a variational procedure it is pointed out that the Z(5) solution, in which an infinite square well potential in beta is used, corresponds to the critical point of the shape phase transition from a triaxial vibrator to the rigid triaxial rotator.

A Path Algorithm for Constrained Estimation
Creators: name: Zhou, Hua
name: Lange, Kenneth
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Computation (stat.CO)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Many least squares problems involve affine equality and inequality constraints. Although there are variety of methods for solving such problems, most statisticians find constrained estimation challenging. The current paper proposes a new path following algorithm for quadratic programming based on exact penalization. Similar penalties arise in $l_1$ regularization in model selection. Classical penalty methods solve a sequence of unconstrained problems that put greater and greater stress on meeting the constraints. In the limit as the penalty constant tends to $\infty$, one recovers the constrained solution. In the exact penalty method, squared penalties are replaced by absolute value penalties, and the solution is recovered for a finite value of the penalty constant. The exact path following method starts at the unconstrained solution and follows the solution path as the penalty constant increases. In the process, the solution path hits, slides along, and exits from the various constraints. Path following in lasso penalized regression, in contrast, starts with a large value of the penalty constant and works its way downward. In both settings, inspection of the entire solution path is revealing. Just as with the lasso and generalized lasso, it is possible to plot the effective degrees of freedom along the solution path. For a strictly convex quadratic program, the exact penalty algorithm can be framed entirely in terms of the sweep operator of regression analysis. A few well chosen examples illustrate the mechanics and potential of path following.

A case-control study was used and featured two groups: Patients with unexplained recurrent miscarriage (n = 82, abortion group) and those who voluntary surrendered of a normal early pregnancy (n = 97, control group). Abortion villi samples were obtained from all patients. Genomic DNA was later extracted and sequenced, after which statistical analyses performed to assess the relationship between single nucleotide polymorphisms and unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortions. There were significant differences in the genotypic and allelic distribution (p < .05) for CYP19 (rs727479) between the abortion and the control groups. There were no significant differences in the genotypic or allelic distributions (p > .05) for either the LRH-1 (rs2816948) or CYP19 (rs700518). There were also significant genotypic differences (p < .05) for P450scc (rs4077582), but no significant differences for its allelic distribution (p > .05). There was a significant correlation between the occurrence of unexplained recurrent spontaneous abortion and CYP19 (rs727479) single nucleotide polymorphisms.

Securitizing spectacle : property, real estate investment trusts, and the financialization of retail space in Singapore
Creators: name: Daniels, Joseph A.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: In this thesis I explore several intersections of the work on financialization, urbanization, the real estate financial nexus, and spectacle urbanism. Taking the recently formed Singapore real estate investment trust (REIT) market as its case, this thesis contributes to efforts to build out our understanding of the consequences of urban financialization: among them, argued here, being the production of ‘spectacle urbanism’ as an everyday experience in retail spaces. Entangled within state initiatives to develop Singapore as a leading financial center, the REIT market was initiated in 2002 as part of a wider effort to deepen financial markets in the city-state. Its existence has become a current political issue in parliament, manifestly centered upon the politics over claims to property and its seeming capture by financial actors as a “purely financial asset”. And it is here that the thesis begins in Chapter 1 to outline the contemporary relevance of this study. In Chapter 2 I argue that urbanizing financialization—that is to concern ourselves with financialization and urbanization as interdependent processes—is necessary for understanding the spatial dynamics of financialization. The strategic starting point is to focus upon the material and spatial processes that enable property to be treated as a “pure financial asset”. In Chapter 3, drawing upon interviews conducted in the Singaporean REIT market, I demonstrate the material and spatial process that REIT managers concern themselves with to realize property as a ‘pure financial asset’, guided by the notion of producing liquidity or ‘unlocking value’. Chapter 4 considers the effects of these processes and argues that a constructive dialogue is to be had between the work on spectacle urbanism and financialization. I argue that not only does financialization accelerate spectacle urbanism, but that this in turn largely sustains urban financialization in a recursive process. Finally, the thesis concludes with a reflection upon the implications of the empirical chapters and the ‘politics’ of this research—highlighting the urgency of future research on the role of the state in creating these infrastructures of financialization.

description: The project Cross-Platform Mediation, Association and Search Engine(XMAS) researches the automatic keyphrase extraction from text, to categorize free text automatically without learning from pre-labeled training examples. Keywords provide a concise and precise high-level summarization of a document. The manual assignment of keyphrases to a text is a very costly, tedious and time consuming task. Therefore, ways of automating this process are of interest. During the research, it has recognized that Tf-Idf, with its dependency on term frequency, is not suitable for short texts, because keywords do not appear with sufficient high frequency in short texts. The main thesis objective is to show how fuzzy classification can be used in keyphrase extraction task by proposing a theoretical approach and by implementing a prototype based on the proposed approach. For that reason, several membership degree functions are described and their appropriateness for keyphrase extraction is evaluated. Based on those membership degree functions, six keyphrase extractions algorithms were developed. Subsequently the algorihtms have been implemented and their performance is compared with graph based, state-of-the-art, unsupervised tagging systems on two different datasets. One of these proposed algorithms outperforms three of four reference algorithms.

At the same time the metal atoms tend to form clusters because their cohesive energy is about two orders of magnitude higher than the cohesive energy of polymers. To selfconsistently simulate these coupled processes, we present in this paper a Kinetic Monte Carlo approach. Using a simple model with diffusion coefficients taken as input parameters allows us to perform a systematic study of the behavior of a large ensemble of metal atoms on a polymer surface eventually leading to polymer nanocomposites. Special emphasis is placed on the cluster growth, cluster size distribution and the penetration of clusters into the substrate. We also study the influence of surface defects and analyze how the properties of the resulting material can be controlled by variation of the deposition rate.

description: The study of geometric phase in quantum mechanics has so far be confined to discrete (or continuous) spectra and trace preserving evolutions. Consider only the transmission channel, a scattering process with internal degrees of freedom is neither a discrete spectrum problem nor a trace preserving process. We explore the geometric phase in a scattering process taking only the transmission process into account. We find that the geometric phase can be calculated by the some method as in an unitary evolution. The interference visibility depends on the transmission amplitude. The dependence of the geometric phase on the barrier strength and the spin-spin coupling constant is also presented and discussed.

description: Brane-world models where observers are trapped within the thickness of a 3-brane offer novel perspectives on gravitation and cosmology. In this essay, I would argue that the problem of a late epoch acceleration of the universe is well explained in the framework of a 4-dimensional de Sitter universe embedded in a 5-dimensional de Sitter spacetime. While a 5D anti de Sitter space background is important for studying conformal field theories -- for its role in the AdS/CFT correspondence -- the existence of a 5-dimensional de Sitter space is crucial for finding an effective 4D Newton constant that remains finite and a normalizable zero-mode graviton wave function.

description: Abstract:
This map is not intended to be used for selecting individual sites. Its purpose is to inform land-use planners, government officials, and the public in a general way about geologic bedrock conditions that affect the selection of sites for various purposes. The properties of thick soils may supercede those of the underlying bedrock and should be considered on a site-to-site basis. At any site, it is important to understand the characteristics of both the soils and the underlying rock.
Bridging Model and Observed Stellar Spectra

description: Accurate model stellar fluxes are key for the analysis of observations of individual stars or stellar populations. Model spectra differ from real stellar spectra due to limitations of the input physical data and adopted simplifications, but can be empirically calibrated to maximise their resemblance to actual stellar spectra. I describe a least-squares procedure of general use and test it on the MILES library.

The effect of negative intrathoracic pressure on heart-lung interaction in the presence of elevated lung volume and increased right ventricular preload and afterload
Creators: name: Cheyne, William Spencer
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2015

description: While the hemodynamic effects of spontaneous respiration are normally considered minimal, large increases in negative intrathoracic pressure (ITP) are known to impair left ventricular (LV) function. Increased negative ITP is a hallmark of obstructive respiratory disease, and is often accompanied by elevations in lung volume and changes to the pulmonary vasculature, both of which have adverse effects on LV function through both series and direct ventricular interaction (DVI). While the hemodynamic effects of these stressors in isolation are generally well established, the interaction of these mechanisms, and their summative effect on LV function, has not been investigated. This study examined the hemodynamic effects of increased negative ITP, dynamic lung hyperinflation (DH), increased pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR) and increased preload (VL) alone and in combination in healthy, spontaneously breathing humans using echocardiography to evaluate LV volumes and geometry. Reducing ITP on inspiration to -20 cmH₂O significantly decreased LV SV by 7% (p<0.001), due to a reduced LV end-diastolic volume (LVEDV). DVI was implicated in this reduction, as evidenced by a significant increase in the radius of septal curvature (RSC) (p=0.002), indicating leftward septal shift. DH alone also decreased LV SV by 12% (p=0.001) and, in combination with increased negative ITP, caused a greater reduction in LVEDV than either condition in isolation (p=0.001). This LV under-filling was exacerbated by increased PVR, resulting in a 14% decrease in LV SV (p=0.001), which appears to be partially mediated by DVI, as indicated by significant increases in RSC (p=0.001). Under these conditions, when preload was increased by acute VL, we observed a paradoxical further decrease in LVEDV (-16%, p<0.001) and thus LV SV (-21%, p<0.001). Together with the observed increase in RSC (p=0.001), this is strong evidence for the role of DVI in impairing LV filling under these conditions. In conclusion, large increases in lung volume have a considerable deleterious effect on cardiac function. Moreover, at high volumes, DH may play a larger role than the associated increases in negative ITP in influencing hemodynamics. These findings have important implications for better understanding altered cardiopulmonary interaction in obstructive respiratory disease.

description: An individual's lifetime reproductive success (LRS) measures its realized genetic contributions to the next generation, but how well does it predict this over longer periods? Here we use human genealogical data to estimate expected individual genetic contributions (IGC) and quantify the degree to which LRS, relative to other fitness proxies, predicts IGC over longer periods. This allows an identification of the life-history stages that are most important in shaping variation in IGC. We use historical genealogical data from two non-isolated local populations in Switzerland to estimate the stabilized IGC for 2230 individuals approximately 10 generations after they were born. We find that LRS explains 30% less variation in IGC than the best predictor of IGC, the number of grandoffspring. However, albeit less precise than the number of grandoffspring, we show that LRS does provide an unbiased prediction of IGC. Furthermore, it predicts IGC better than lifespan, and accounting for offspring survival to adulthood does not improve the explanatory power. Overall, our findings demonstrate the value of human genealogical data to evolutionary biology and suggest that reproduction—more than lifespan or offspring survival—impacts the long-term genetic contributions of historic humans, even in a population with appreciable migration.

description: A Cu-Fe nanocomposite containing 50 nm thick iron filaments dispersed in a copper matrix was processed by torsion under high pressure at various strain rates and temperatures. The resulting nanostructures were characterized by transmission electron microscopy, atom probe tomography and Mössbauer spectrometry. It is shown that alpha-Fe filaments are dissolved during severe plastic deformation leading to the formation of a homogeneous supersaturated solid solution of about 12 at.% Fe in fcc Cu. The dissolution rate is proportional to the total plastic strain but is not very sensitive to the strain rate. Similar results were found for samples processed at liquid nitrogen temperature. APT data revealed asymmetric composition gradients resulting from the deformation induced intermixing. On the basis of these experimental data, the formation of the supersaturated solid solutions is discussed
