Assimilation or resistance? : the production and consumption of Tlingit beadwork
Creators: name: Smetzer, Megan Alice
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The extensive art historical and anthropological literature addressing indigenous Northwest Coast artistic production has, at its center, a "significant silence." Though produced, consumed and valued, in a wide range of cultural contexts, for more than one hundred years, Tlingit beadwork has never been comprehensively analyzed. I engage with, and begin to fill, this significant lacuna in scholarship through the compilation into a catalogue of nearly eleven hundred beaded objects in widely dispersed museum collections, including regalia and other items made for Tlingit use, and souvenirs; the use of theoretical frameworks not previously applied to the Northwest Coast; the critical examination of historic texts and images; and, most importantly, conversations with Tlingit headers and elders. Euro-American constructions of authenticity, tradition, the hierarchy between fine and applied art, as well as notions of hybridity and commoditization created the circumstances for beadwork's marginalization. Drawing on the work of Ruth Phillips, Nicholas Thomas and James Clifford, I argue that beadwork should be considered both as the material embodiment of the complicated and uneven relationships among and between Tlingit communities and others, and also as a means for disrupting and altering the contexts within which it operates. In order to comprehend the complex ways in which beadwork has circulated, I utilize a case study approach. I investigate the transcultural meanings of beaded regalia and photographs at the 1904 Sitka potlatch; I examine beaded souvenirs made for late Victorian era tourists; I analyze the mid-twentieth century history of the Alaska Native Arts and Crafts Cooperative (ANAC) and the experiences of the nearly 500 Tlingit women who sold beadwork through ANAC; and, I illustrate the multiple roles played by beadwork in terms of Alaskan politics, museum display, and issues of identity at Celebration, an increasingly important gathering of indigenous people. These four case studies, the extensive catalogue, and the stories told by contemporary Tlingit people, indicate the continuing significance of Tlingit beadwork, as well as the innovation and creativity of those who have made and used it. This thesis contributes to the crucial repositioning of Tlingit visual and material culture at the intersection of art historical and anthropological literatures.

description: A model for the Universe is proposed where it is considered as a mixture of scalar and matter fields. The particle production is due to an irreversible transfer of energy from the gravitational field to the matter field and represented by a non-equilibrium pressure. This model can simulate three distinct periods of the Universe: (a) an accelerated epoch where the energy density of the scalar field prevails over the matter field, (b) a past decelerated period where the energy density of the matter field becomes more predominant than the scalar energy density, and (c) a present acceleration phase where the scalar energy density overcomes the energy density of the matter field.

description: Magnetic properties and underlying magnetic models of the synthetic A$_2$Cu$_3$O(SO$_4)_3$ fedotovite (A = K) and puninite (A = Na) minerals, as well as the mixed euchlorine-type NaKCu$_3$O(SO$_4)_3$ are reported. We show that all these compounds contain magnetic Cu$_6$ hexamer units, which at temperatures below about 100 K act as single spin-1 entities. Weak interactions between these magnetic molecules lead to long-range order below $T_N$ = 3.4 K (A = Na), 4.7 K (A = NaK), and about 3.0 K (A = K). The formation of the magnetic order is elucidated by ab initio calculations that reveal two-dimensional inter-hexamer interactions within crystallographic $bc$ planes. This model indicates the presence of a weakly distorted square lattice of $S=1$ magnetic ions and challenges the earlier description of the A$_2$Cu$_3$O(SO$_4)_3$ minerals in terms of Haldane spin chains.

description: Ghana’s Fertilizer Subsidy Programme (GFSP) was initiated in 2008 in response to the global food and fuel price crisis. Although initially intended to be a temporary measure that became increasingly expensive as Ghana’s macroeconomy deteriorated, farmers, civil society organizations, and politicians began to expect the subsidy on an annual basis. This paper applies the kaleidoscope model for agricultural and food security policy change to the case of GFSP. In doing so, it uses a variety of analytical tools to highlight how many of the weak outcomes of GFSP can be attributed to the nature of the broader policy process that has surrounded GFSP as well as the underlying political and institutional context in which policy making occurs in Ghana. Based on semistructured interviews conducted with knowledgeable stakeholders spanning the government, donor, civil society, and research communities, the paper identifies the bottlenecks that need to be addressed if the program is to be more effective in the future.
MIGNEX Policy Brief D8.5 - Implications of the proposed solidarity mechanism on the EU returns system

Publisher: name: Peace Research Institute Oslo
Year: 2023

description: If implemented with independent monitoring and adjusted as secondary solidarity support, the relocation of returnees can be a viable solidarity tool for effective and safe return of migrants in irregular situations across the EU.

Key Takeaways

The Council’s approach on solidarity mechanism offers a simplified version of the Commission’s technical concept of return sponsorships.

Mutual recognition of return decisions by Member States should include effective Frontex and independent monitoring to ensure fundamental rights compliance.

The proposed solidarity mechanism should keep the mandatory relocation of asylum seekers as the primary and preferred option.

Here, further results are given: first, for specific parameters relevant to MINOS in the low-energy mode and, then, for arbitrary parameters. A generalized model with equidistant Fermi-point splittings and an additional complex phase is also discussed. If relevant, this generalized model might have interesting effects at future long-baseline oscillation experiments.

This equivalence allows one to distinguish a class of exact solutions to the Laplacian growth problem in the multiply-connected case. These solutions corerespond to finite-dimensional reductions of the Whitham hierarchy representable as equations of hydrodynamic type which are solvable by means of the generalized hodograph method.

description: Information on the effect of daylength on nonconverted and converted selections of sorghum is very limited. This study was designed to evaluate the effect ofdaylength on plant height (PHt), days to anthesis (DA), and other agronomic traits of local Millo Blanco nonconverted (MBNC) and three Millo Blanco converted (MBC) selections of forage sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench) and BTx406 (a 4-dwarf photoperiodinsensitive temperate grain sorghum used as the control) during an eight-month period in Puerto Rico. The MBC selections were based on approsirnately plant height of 50, 120 and 170 em. Plantings were made on the 21st day of each month from May through December, 1991. After an initial30-day growth period, plants were evaluated every 15 days until harvest. Days to anthesis of MBNC decreased from 175 (May planting) to 61 (October planting), then increased to 70 and 75 (November and December plantings, respectively). The mean plant height of MBNC followed a similar trend ranging from 278 em (August planting) to 138 em (November planting). Although a significant correlation was observed between days to anthesis and plant height in MBNC, the MBC selections and BTx406 (the control) were unaffected by planting date. Mean days to anthesis of the three MBC selections was similar throughout the year (61 days). This study demonstrated the possibility of making selections for height from converted sorghums prior to their formal release having by this wayan excellent opportunity for its utilization in a year round breeding program.

We then explore the graph by intentional random walks using local next-near-neighbor search algorithm to navigate through the graph. The topological properties such as betweenness are determined by an ensemble of independent walkers and efficiency of the search is compared on three different graph topologies. In addition we simulate interacting random walks which are created by given rate and navigated in parallel, representing transport with queueing of information packets on the graph.

TDCOSMO V: strategies for precise and accurate measurements of the Hubble constant with strong lensing

description: Strong lensing time delays can measure the Hubble constant H$_0$ independent of any other probe. Assuming commonly used forms for the radial mass density profile of the lenses, a 2\% precision has been achieved with 7 Time-Delay Cosmography (TDCOSMO) lenses, in tension with the H$_0$ from the cosmic microwave background. However, without assumptions on the radial mass density profile -- and relying exclusively on stellar kinematics to break the mass-sheet degeneracy -- the precision drops to 8\% with the current data of the 7 TDCOSMO lenses, insufficient to resolve the H$_0$ tension. With the addition of external information from 33 Sloan Lens ACS (SLACS) lenses, the precision improves to 5\%, {\it if} the deflectors of TDCOSMO and SLACS lenses are drawn from the same population. We investigate the prospects to improve the precision of time-delay cosmography without relying on mass profile assumptions to break the mass sheet degeneracy. Our forecasts are based on the hierarchical framework introduced by Birrer et al. (2020). With existing samples and technology, 3.3\% precision on H$_0$ can be reached by adding spatially resolved kinematics of the 7 TDCOSMO lenses. The precision improves to 2.5\% with the further addition of kinematics for 50 non-time-delay lenses from SLACS and the Strong Lensing Legacy Survey (SL2S). Expanding the samples to 40 time delay and 200 non-time delay lenses will improve the precision to 1.5\% and 1.2\%, respectively. Time-delay cosmography can reach sufficient precision to resolve the Hubble tension at 3-5$σ$, without assumptions on the radial mass profile of lens galaxies. By obtaining this precision with and without external datasets, we will test the consistency of the samples and enable further improvements based on even larger future samples of time delay and non-time-delay lenses (e.g. from the Rubin, Euclid, and Roman Observatories).

Rethinking German language education : a hermeneutic approach
Creators: name: Struch, Angelika
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: This dissertation argues that the educational value of German language study would be improved by a hermeneutic approach. Language educators have for some time had difficulties forging a common approach. In my view, language pedagogy should concentrate on the transformation of the familiar by the unfamiliar, or the change in self-understanding made possible by the learning of a new language. My original contribution to this discussion is to show how the philosophy of Martin Heidegger could be usefully applied. Chapter One gives an overview of contemporary language education in terms of its recent developments. In my account, the recent cultural turn has led to an impasse over the very concept of culture. My suggestion is that, in order to educate students better to reach current goals, a more productive approach would be to encourage the turn from one's own, familiar language to another, unfamiliar one. Greater knowledge of other languages is an important step on the way to greater knowledge of the world. Chapter Two introduces my claim that Heidegger's hermeneutics specifically should be applied to language education. Of course many writers have promoted Heidegger's importance for general education, but an historical overview of his contributions reveals how the possibility of applying his work to German language education has emerged. Chapter Three develops a model of Heidegger's hermeneutic philosophy. The two main features of this model are authentic understanding and poetic thinking. Chapter Four explores the claim that a more hermeneutic model of teaching and learning, especially if derived from Heidegger's reading of Plato, would lead to a crucially different understanding of language teaching and learning. Chapter Five contrasts three different first-year German language programs from the perspectives of authentic understanding and poetic thinking. The aim in this chapter is to recommend new ways of conceiving German language programs more generally. My conclusion underlines the importance of language study for post-secondary education today.
An elasticity theory for self-assembled protein lattices with application to the martensitic phase transition in bacteriophage T4 tail sheath

description: We propose an elasticity theory for one and two dimensional arrays of globular proteins for which the free energy is affected by relative position and relative rotation between neighboring molecules. The kinematics of such assemblies is described, the conditions of compatibility are found, a form of the free energy is given, and formulas for applied forces and moments are developed. It is shown that fully relaxed states of sheets consist of helically deformed sheets which themselves are composed of helical chains of molecules in rational directions. We apply the theory to the fascinating contractile deformation that occurs in the tail sheath of the virus bacteriophage T4, which aids its invasion of its bacterial host. Using electron density maps of extended and contracted sheath, we approximate the domains of each molecule by ellipsoids and then evaluate our formulas for the position and orientation of each molecule. We show that, with the resulting kinematic description, the configurations of extended and contracted tail sheath are generated by a simple formula. We proposed a constrained version of the theory based on measurements on extended and contracted sheath. Following a suggestion of Pauling [{\em Discussions of the Faraday Society} {\bf 13}, 170-6 (1953)], we develop a simple model of the molecular interaction. The resulting free energy is found to have a double-well structure. Certain simple deformations are studied (tension, torsion inflation); the theory predicts a first-order Poynting effect and some unexpected relations among moduli. Finally, the force of penetration is given, and a possibly interesting program of epitaxial growth and patterning of such sheets is suggested.

description: k-graphs are higher-rank analogues of directed graphs which were first developed to provide combinatorial models for operator algebras of Cuntz-Krieger type. Here we develop the theory of covering spaces for k-graphs, obtaining a satisfactory version of the usual topological classification in terms of subgroups of a fundamental group. We then use this classification to describe the C*-algebras of covering k-graphs as crossed products by coactions of homogeneous spaces, generalizing recent results on the C*-algebras of graphs.

description: Spin observables in the photoproduction of the $Θ^+$ are explored for the purpose of determining the parity of the $Θ^+$. Based on reflection symmetry in the scattering plane, we show that certain spin observables in the photoproduction of the $Θ^+$ can be related directly to its parity. We also show that measurements of both the target nucleon asymmetry and the $% Θ^+$ polarization may be useful in determining the parity of $Θ^+$ in a model-independent way. Furthermore, we show that no combination of spin observables involving only the polarization of the photon and/or nucleon in the initial state can determine the parity of $Θ^+$ unambiguously.

description: Barkhausen noise as found in magnets is studied both with and without the presence of long-range (LR) demagnetizing fields using the non-equilibrium, zero-temperature random-field Ising model. Two distinct subloop behaviors arise and are shown to be in qualitative agreement with experiments on thin film magnets and soft ferromagnets. With LR fields present subloops resemble a self-organized critical system, while their absence results in subloops that reflect the critical point seen in the saturation loop as the system disorder is changed. In the former case, power law distributions of noise are found in subloops, while in the latter case history-induced critical scaling is studied in avalanche size distributions, spin-flip correlation functions, and finite-size scaling of the second moments of the size distributions. Results are presented for simulations of over 10^8 spins.

In this class of hadrons a kaon is trapped by a s-wave meson or baryon. To describe this class of multiquarks we apply the Resonating Group Method, and extract the hard core kaon-meson(baryon)interactions. We derive a criterion to classify the attractive channels. We find that the mesons f0(980), Ds(2457), Bs scalar and axial, and also the baryons with the quantum numbers of Lambda, Xi_c, Xi_b and also Omega_cc, Omega_cb and Omega_bb belong to the new hadronic class of the Ds(2317).

description: This project and research explore how perceptions of self are produced, deconstructed and reshaped through alternative narratives and interactive installation. It urges people to reconsider how individuality emerges through engagement with new media technologies. Combining digital video and interactive technologies with philosophical concepts such as I-Ching and Agential Realism, this project explores the process of becoming through a video essay that charts the lifecycle of a fictional character, named Mango. Mango is a complex entity that is both an imagined being and an abstract idea, taking on many forms throughout the work. Her changes reflect an ongoing instability and shift in her identity. Using an interactive video installation, I conflate the viewer with Mango's image and narrative, mixing subject and object identities. These experiences demonstrate how we have adapted to an environment so heavily reliant on hyper-visibility and cybernetics. Our understanding of ourselves is integrated with the screen image. The body of work – Mango – combines different media techniques including video collage, 3D modelling, facial recognition and interactive design to implicate the audience in a cycle of formation. Through these approaches, Mango offers a new perspective on how we come to look and perceive the world in the projections of others, both animate and inanimate entities. It considers technology as an extension of human desires that hold invisible biases and values.

The pattern is exactly as described earlier, but the axial stripe and the pale spots on all terga are slightly larger or wider.

description: Frequency responses of multi-degree-of-freedom mechanical systems with weak forcing and damping can be studied as perturbations from their conservative limit. Specifically, recent results show how bifurcations near resonances can be predicted analytically from conservative families of periodic orbits (nonlinear normal modes). However, the stability of forced-damped motions is generally determined a posteriori via numerical simulations. In this paper, we present analytic results on the stability of periodic orbits that perturb from conservative nonlinear normal modes. In contrast with prior approaches to the same problem, our method can tackle strongly nonlinear oscillations, high-order resonances and arbitrary types of non-conservative forces affecting the system, as we show with specific examples.

description: We address the stability of multipole-mode solitons in nonlocal Kerr-type nonlinear media. Such solitons comprise several out-of-phase peaks packed together by the forces acting between them. We discover that dipole-, triple-, and quadrupole-mode solitons can be made stable, whereas all higher-order soliton bound states are unstable.

On universality in aging ferromagnets

description: This work is a contribution to the study of universality in out-of-equilibrium lattice models undergoing a second-order phase transition at equilibrium. The experimental protocol that we have chosen is the following: the system is prepared in its high-temperature phase and then quenched at the critical temperature $T_c$. We investigated by mean of Monte Carlo simulations two quantities that are believed to take universal values: the exponent $λ/z$ obtained from the decay of autocorrelation functions and the asymptotic value $X_\infty$ of the fluctuation-dissipation ratio $X(t,s)$. This protocol was applied to the Ising model, the 3-state clock model and the 4-state Potts model on square, triangular and honeycomb lattices and to the Ashkin-Teller model at the point belonging at equilibrium to the 3-state Potts model universality class and to a multispin Ising model and the Baxter-Wu model both belonging to the 4-state Potts model universality class at equilibrium.

 TYPE MATERIAL. — Vietnam. Hai Phong, Cat Ba Island, Phu Long, Thien Luong Cave, 29.IX.1998, leg. L. Deharveng, holotype ♂ (MNHN CC 157).
ETYMOLOGY. — To emphasize cavernicoly.
DIAGNOSIS. — Differs from congeners in some troglomorphic traits, combined with a relatively broad caudofemoral process of the telopod.
DESCRIPTION
Length 8.5 mm, width 4.1 mm.
Coloration entirely pallid, unpigmented. Antennomere 6 about 2.0 times longer than wide, antennomere 7 very short; 6 poorly visible, unpigmented but convex ocelli on each side of head; Tömösváry’s organ transverse-oval, about twice as wide as long.
Collum with two transverse striae.
Thoracic shield with a rather narrow hyposchism slightly surpassing the caudal tergal contour; 9 transverse striae, of which 6 start above the schism and 5 (neither the first nor the last one though) cross the dorsum.
Male pygidium virtually not sinuate medially at caudal margin.
Male leg 17 (Fig. 9A) with a high, rounded outer coxal lobe; telopodite 4-segmented.
Male leg 18 (Fig. 9B) with a rounded syncoxital notch; telopodite 4-segmented.
Telopods (Fig.9C, D) with a rather small, roundly subtrapeziform syncoxital lobe flanked by two setose horns crowned with an apical setoid. Prefemur and femur micropapillate nearly throughout. Caudomedial outgrowth of femur wide at base, that of tibia with a pilose tubercle at base.Tarsus narrowly rounded apically, almost pointed.
REMARKS
 Based on morphological evidence, this new species resembles several epigean congeners from China or Indochina, such as H. maculata n. sp. (see above), H. electa in the sense of Attems (1938) and others, but none of these shows the troglomorphic features of complete depigmentation and elongate Tömösváry’s organs. However, the ocelli are still discernible and neither the antennae nor the legs are particularly long. To prove that we face a troglobite, additional observations and material are necessary. In general, Vietnam supports numerous karst caves rich in troglobites (Deharveng et al. 2001), while Thien Luong Cave is known to mainly harbour troglobitic arthropods (Deharveng pers. comm.).

description: We highlight a general theory to engineer arbitrary Hermitian tight-binding lattice models in electrical LC circuits, where the lattice sites are replaced by the electrical nodes, connected to its neighbors and to the ground by capacitors and inductors. In particular, by supplementing each node with $n$ subnodes, where the phases of the current and voltage are the $n$ distinct roots of \emph{unity}, one can in principle realize arbitrary hopping amplitude between the sites or nodes via the \emph{shift capacitor coupling} between them. This general principle is then implemented to construct a plethora of topological models in electrical circuits, \emph{topolectric circuits}, where the robust zero-energy topological boundary modes manifest through a large boundary impedance, when the circuit is tuned to the resonance frequency. The simplicity of our circuit constructions is based on the fact that the existence of the boundary modes relies only on the Clifford algebra of the corresponding Hermitian matrices entering the Hamiltonian and not on their particular representation. This in turn enables us to implement a wide class of topological models through rather simple topolectric circuits with nodes consisting of only two subnodes. We anchor these outcomes from the numerical computation of the on-resonance impedance in circuit realizations of first-order ($m=1$), such as Chern and quantum spin Hall insulators, and second- ($m=2$) and third- ($m=3$) order topological insulators in different dimensions, featuring sharp localization on boundaries of codimensionality $d_c=m$. Finally, we subscribe to the \emph{stacked topolectric circuit} construction to engineer three-dimensional Weyl, nodal-loop, quadrupolar Dirac and Weyl semimetals, respectively displaying surface and hinge localized impedance.

Human factors and ergonomics

description: This research explores the intersection between industrial and interaction design principles to create engaging interactive objects for public in-between spaces. It emphasizes not only designing with the body but also the mind, acknowledging the diverse cultural and social backgrounds of individuals. Employing a research-through-design approach with the creation of discursive artefacts, the study develops a cultural-affordance-based framework for cognitive ergonomics evaluation. This descriptive and reflective methodology departs from deterministic models, fostering cultural and social sensitivity in design for diverse populations. Three affordance typologies are proposed to understand user-object interactions in these spaces where affordances become invitations to action, information for response tuning, and identity forged through social practice. Finally, the D.O.O.R. evaluation, a four-stage process involving deconstructing interactions into non-contact and contact phases, embracing unexpected insights during field observations, associating implied operations through semantics, and employing a cognitive ergonomics evaluation scale to refine designed affordances in an object, is introduced to guide designers in implementing these concepts to reduce the burden of cognitive friction in users. This research aims to contribute to the creation of cultural sensitivity in the design and engagement with objects in public spaces, enriching transient encounters for a wider range of users.
