description: In this presentation, Patti Condon discusses how we, as information professionals, can tailor our messages to be more effective when we talk to researchers and students about data management. We are seeing the library take on larger roles in data services evidenced by hiring new positions to meet the emerging data needs of our users. In many cases, however, responsibilities for working with researchers and students on areas related to data services are increasingly being added to the mounting duties of librarians who serve in liaison roles, scholarly communication librarians, or science librarians. Effectively framing conversations around data services topics can be challenging not only because it may not be a librarian’s primary field of practice, but because disciplines engage uniquely with data, researchers often interact with data differently than information professionals, the landscape of this field of practice is developing rapidly, and finding the point-of-need for data management instruction is difficult. This presentation explores the ways in which librarians, archivists, and other information professionals responsible for data services in their workplace can engage with researchers and students about data management and related topics. By tailoring our messages about data management in ways that are meaningful to our audience, the information we communicate will be more useful and impactful. Condon examines data management in terms of preservation and access, compliance, responsible conduct of research, and sharing and open data. In doing so, she also considers approaches to instruction, and identifies effective ways to present information on research guides. Examples and cases come from her own experience and research, and the growing body of literature in the area of data management. Sharing from the audience will be welcomed.

description: The significant excess of events recently found by the H1 and ZEUS Collaborations at HERA in the deep-inelastic e^+ p scattering for high momentum-transfers squared Q^2>15000 GeV^2 over the expectation of the standard model can be explained by either one of the following possible consequences of the substructure of quarks and leptons: 1) production of leptoquarks (Phi), 2) exchange of an excited Z boson (Z'), 3) intrinsic form factors of quarks (or leptons), 4) intrinsic anomalous magnetic moments of quarks, 5) production of excited quarks (q^*), and 6) that of excited positrons (e^*+). The masses of these new particles are estimated to be m(Phi) = 280-440 GeV, m(Z') = 210-250 GeV, m(q^*) = 120-140 GeV, and m(e^*+) = 300-370 GeV, although the possibilities 2) and 5) are excluded by the currently available experimental constraints.

description: A microscopic theory is developed for the projection (quantum mirage) of the Kondo resonance from one focus of an elliptic quantum corral to the other focus. The quantum mirage is shown to be independent of the size and the shape of the ellipse, and experiences λ_F/4 oscillations (λ_F is the surface-band Fermi wavelength) with an increasing semimajor axis length. We predict an oscillatory behavior of the mirage as a function of a weak magnetic field applied perpendicular to the sample.

description: We report the detection of a hot Jupiter ($M_{p}=1.75_{-0.17}^{+0.14}\ M_{J}$, $R_{p}=1.38\pm0.04\ R_{J}$) orbiting a middle-aged star ($\log g=4.152^{+0.030}_{-0.043}$) in the Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) southern continuous viewing zone ($β=-79.59^{\circ}$). We confirm the planetary nature of the candidate TOI-150.01 using radial velocity observations from the APOGEE-2 South spectrograph and the Carnegie Planet Finder Spectrograph, ground-based photometric observations from the robotic Three-hundred MilliMeter Telescope at Las Campanas Observatory, and Gaia distance estimates. Large-scale spectroscopic surveys, such as APOGEE/APOGEE-2, now have sufficient radial velocity precision to directly confirm the signature of giant exoplanets, making such data sets valuable tools in the TESS era. Continual monitoring of TOI-150 by TESS can reveal additional planets and subsequent observations can provide insights into planetary system architectures involving a hot Jupiter around a star about halfway through its main-sequence life.

description: The paper attempts to explore the long-term effectiveness of in-service teacher training courses for E.F.L. teachers in the Greek educational context. The courses were organized and run by the department of English, Aristotle University of Thessaloniki. Α qnestionnaire was designed and issued to teacher trainees some months following the completion of the courses. The questionnaire aimed to assess, among others, (a) teacher trainees' beliefs regarding the relevance of the knowledge acquired to their individual needs, (b) the extent to which they used the materials provided in the course, and (c) the usefulness of the subjects offered. The data are discussed in relation to strategies for optimizing teacher-training services and implications are drawn for the implementation of change in a broader educational context. Α ‘cooperative model’ is proposed for the promotion of change involving active cooperation between all agents involved in the educational process and necessitating top-down and bottom-up cooperation.

description: Gravity is treated as a stochastic phenomenon based on fluctuations of the metric tensor of general relativity. By using a (3+1) slicing of spacetime, a Langevin equation for the dynamical conjugate momentum and a Fokker-Planck equation for its probability distribution are derived. The Raychaudhuri equation for a congruence of timelike or null geodesics leads to a stochastic differential equation for the expansion parameter $θ$ in terms of the proper time $s$. For sufficiently strong metric fluctuations, it is shown that caustic singularities in spacetime can be avoided for converging geodesics. The formalism is applied to the gravitational collapse of a star and the Friedmann-Robertson-Walker cosmological model. It is found that owing to the stochastic behavior of the geometry, the singularity in gravitational collapse and the big-bang have a zero probability of occurring. Moreover, as a star collapses the probability of a distant observer seeing an infinite red shift at the Schwarzschild radius of the star is zero. Therefore, there is a vanishing probability of a Schwarzschild black hole event horizon forming during gravitational collapse.

Total-internal-reflection elastic metasurfaces: design and application to structural vibration isolation

description: This letter presents the concept of Total Internal Reflection metasurface (TIR-MS) which supports the realization of structure-embedded subwavelength acoustic shields for elastic waves propagating in thin waveguides. The proposed metasurface design exploits extreme phase gradients, implemented via locally resonant elements, in order to achieve operating conditions that are largely beyond the critical angle. Such artificial discontinuity is capable of producing complete reflection of the incoming waves regardless of the specific angle of incidence. From a practical perspective, the TIR-MS behaves as a sound hard barrier that is impenetrable to long-wavelength modes at a selected frequency. The TIR metasurface concept is first conceived for a flat interface embedded in a rectangular waveguide and designed to block longitudinal S0-type guided modes. Then, it is extended to circular plates in order to show how enclosed areas can be effectively shielded by incoming waves. Given the same underlying physics, an equivalent dynamic behavior was also numerically and experimentally illustrated for flexural A0-type guided modes. This study shows numerical and experimental evidence that, when the metasurface is excited at the target frequency, significant vibration isolation can be achieved in presence of waves having any arbitrary angle of incidence. These results open interesting paths to achieve vibration isolation and energy filtering in certain prototypical structures of interest for practical engineering applications.

We determine the 90% confidence level limit for the branching fraction to be B(b -> X_s mu+ mu-) < 3.2 x 10^{-4}. We argue that this limit is more stringent than the best published limit on this decay rate.

Color Anomaly and Flavor-Singlet Axial Charge of the Proton in the Chiral Bag: The Cheshire Cat Revisited

description: Quantum effects inside the chiral bag induce a color anomaly which requires a compensating surface term to prevent breakdown of color gauge invariance. We show that the presence of this surface term first discovered several years ago allows one to derive in a gauge-invariant way a chiral-bag version of the Shore-Veneziano two-component formula for the flavor-singlet axial charge of the proton. This has relevance to what is referred to as the ``proton spin problem" on the one hand and to the Cheshire-Cat phenomenon in hadron structure on the other. We show that when calculated to the leading order in the color gauge coupling and for a specific color electric monopole configuration in the bag, one can obtain a striking Cheshire-Cat phenomenon with a negligibly small singlet axial charge.

description: Density functional theory is generalized to incorporate electron-phonon coupling. A Kohn-Sham equation yielding the electronic density $n_U(\mathbf{r})$, a conditional probability density depending parametrically on the phonon normal mode amplitudes $U=\{U_{\mathbf{q}λ}\}$, is coupled to the nuclear Schrödinger equation of the exact factorization method. The phonon modes are defined from the harmonic expansion of the nuclear Schrödinger equation. A nonzero Berry curvature on nuclear configuration space affects the phonon modes, showing that the potential energy surface alone is generally not sufficient to define the phonons. An orbital-dependent functional approximation for the non\-adiabatic exchange-correlation energy reproduces the leading-order nonadiabatic electron-phonon-induced band structure renormalization in the Fröhlich model.

description: We apply first principles calculations to study the opening of single-wall carbon nanotubes (SWNT's) by oxidation. We show that an oxygen rim can stabilize the edge of the open tube. The sublimation of CO$_2$ molecules from the rim with the subsequent closing of the tube changes from endothermic to exothermic as the tube radius increases, within the range of experimental feasible radii. We also obtain the energies for opening the tube at the cap and at the wall, the latter being significantly less favorable.

description: We present the first algorithm for designing volumetric Michell Trusses. Our method uses a parametrization approach to generate trusses made of structural elements aligned with the primary direction of an object's stress field. Such trusses exhibit high strength-to-weight ratios. We demonstrate the structural robustness of our designs via a posteriori physical simulation. We believe our algorithm serves as an important complement to existing structural optimization tools and as a novel standalone design tool itself.

description: The purpose of this paper is twofold: (a) to differentiate between norm-biased and culture-biased ELT situations, and (b) to unravel the status of English within the Greek primary educational context. It concentrates οn identifying elements that can shed some light οn the norm/culture orientation laid out above. We attempt to offer some evidence on the extent to which ELT situations in Greece lend themselves to the 'cultural authentication of the foreign language' and the elevation of the 'ethnic culture' of individual classroom members (i.e., learners αnd teacher) to the level of 'classroom culture' - steps that have to be taken if we want the teaching of English as a foreign language (EFL) to be transformed into a genuine English as an international language (EIL) pedagogy in the Greek educational context.

Mass hierarchy from compositeness hierarchy in supersymmetric gauge theory
Creators: name: Hayakawa, M.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1997
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The possibility that the mass hierarchy is intimately associated with the compositeness level of the matters is proposed in supersymmetric gauge theory. This implies, for instance, that the preons constituting top quark consists of the ``prepreons'' binded by the same gauge force making the charm quark out of another preons. The exemplifying toy model illustrates how the hierarchy in the yukawa coupling constants in the up-quark sector is generated from the underlying gauge dynamics. It is also indicated that the incorporation of down-type quarks as elementary objects leads to unpleasant results generically. Thus all the quarks as well as the leptons must also be regarded as composite in the present approach.

We find that B-fields are more organized and exhibit a small dispersion of 12$\degr$.

The emergence of writing: children's writing during the pre-phonemic spelling stage.
Creators: name: Stellakis, Nektarios
Publisher: name: Selected papers on theoretical and applied linguistics
Year: 2003

description: Learning to write is a central part of becoming literate. From an emergent literacy perspective, it is argued that learning to write occurs during the first years of a child' s life, fostered by experiences that permit and promote meaningful interaction with oral and written language. Data from a research study that took place in five kindergarten schools in the region of Achaia is reported. The early children' s attempts to write are in the center of this paper. Written samples by 57 pupils (aged 5;0 to 5;11), who were in the prephonemic spelling stage are analysed. During this stage even though the children have not discovered yet that letters (graphemes) represent sounds of speech (phonemes) they demonstrate a great amount of knowledge of what written language is and how it works. The results of the study suggest that writing acquisition occurs to some extent before formal teaching and children construct their knowledge about writing, starting from gross distinctions and gradually through experience they move to finer ones. The educational implications of the findings are also discussed. The main argument is that kindergarten school could help in the development of early literacy, and what is needed is an approach that starts from what children know and helps them tο discover writing themselves.

description: We find that inelastic collisional processes in Bose-Einstein condensates induce local variations of the mean-field interparticle interaction and are accompanied by the creation/annihilation of elementary excitation. The physical picture is demonstrated for the case of three body recombination in a trapped condensate. For a high trap barrier the production of high energy trapped single particle excitations results in a strong increase of the loss rate of atoms from the condensate.

description: Stellar activity is one of the primary limitations to the detection of low-mass exoplanets using the radial-velocity (RV) technique. We propose to estimate the variations in shape of the CCF by fitting a Skew Normal (SN) density which, unlike the commonly employed Normal density, includes a skewness parameter to capture the asymmetry of the CCF induced by stellar activity and the convective blueshift. The performances of the proposed method are compared to the commonly employed Normal density using both simulations and real observations, with different levels of activity and signal-to-noise ratio. When considering real observations, the correlation between the RV and the asymmetry of the CCF and between the RV and the width of the CCF are stronger when using the parameters estimated with the SN density rather than the ones obtained with the commonly employed Normal density. Using the proposed SN approach, the uncertainties estimated on the RV defined as the median of the SN are on average 10% smaller than the uncertainties calculated on the mean of the Normal. The uncertainties estimated on the asymmetry parameter of the SN are on average 15% smaller than the uncertainties measured on the Bisector Inverse Slope Span (BIS SPAN), which is the commonly used parameter to evaluate the asymmetry of the CCF. We also propose a new model to account for stellar activity when fitting a planetary signal to RV data. Based on simple simulations, we were able to demonstrate that this new model improves the planetary detection limits by 12% compared to the model commonly used to account for stellar activity. The SN density is a better model than the Normal density for characterizing the CCF since the correlations used to probe stellar activity are stronger and the uncertainties of the RV estimate and the asymmetry of the CCF are both smaller.

description: A physically realistic stellar wind model based on Alfvén wave dissipation has been used to simulate the wind from Barnard's Star and to estimate the conditions at the location of its recently discovered planetary companion. Such models require knowledge of the stellar surface magnetic field that is currently unknown for Barnard's Star. We circumvent this by considering the observed field distributions of three different stars that constitute admissible magnetic proxies of this object. Under these considerations, Barnard's Star b experiences less intense wind pressure than the much more close-in planet Proxima~b and the planets of the TRAPPIST-1 system. The milder wind conditions are more a result of its much greater orbital distance rather than in differences in the surface magnetic field strengths of the host stars. The dynamic pressure experienced by the planet is comparable to present-day Earth values, but it can undergo variations by factors of several during current sheet crossings in each orbit. The magnetospause standoff distance would be $\sim$\,$20 - 40$\,\% smaller than that of the Earth for an equivalent planetary magnetic field strength.

description: Electron-positron annihilation into a pair of top quarks is considered at the energy of the future collider CLIC. Polarization components of the top quark are calculated with the $γt \bar{t}$ and $Z t \bar{t}$ interactions which follow from the Lagrangian of the effective field theory of the Standard Model. The polarization vector as a function of the scattering angle is calculated and averaged components of polarization are analyzed as functions of anomalous coupling constants. Extrema of these observables (maxima, minima and saddle points) are studied as functions of the $e^+ e^-$ energy.

Echoing and scaling in Einstein-Yang-Mills critical collapse
Creators: name: Gundlach, Carsten
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1996
Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We confirm recent numerical results of echoing and mass scaling in the gravitational collapse of a spherical Yang-Mills field by constructing the critical solution and its perturbations as an eigenvalue problem. Because the field equations are not scale-invariant, the Yang-Mills critical solution is asymptotically, rather than exactly, self-similar, but the methods for dealing with discrete self-similarity developed for the real scalar field can be generalized. We find an echoing period Delta = 0.73784 +/- 0.00002 and critical exponent for the black hole mass gamma = 0.1964 +/- 0.0007.

THE MOLECULAR BASIS OF DIFFERENTIAL DRUG SENSITIVITY IN COLORECTAL PATIENT-DERIVED TUMOR ORGAN0IDS THE SINGLE CELL LEVEL
Creators: name: Smith, Brian P.
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2016

description: It is well established that solid tumors are heterologous systems consisting of distinct clones with differential responses to drug treatment. However, screening techniques for cancer therapeutics have historically relied on isoclonal cell lines that have been in continuous culture for decades. As a consequence, information derived from these models has not always been predictive of efficacy in subsequent clinical development. More recently, tumor organoids derived from patient biopsies, with their inherent heterogeneity and presence of accessory cells, have emerged as more representative systems to study tumor biology. This study proposes to generate colorectal tumor organoids, treat them with several clinically approved drugs, and to separate out populations of cells based upon viability and transcription factor HIF-1α, which is a hypoxia marker that has been well established to regulate many of the classical tumorigenic factors seen within cancer cells. Following this, single cells will be isolated and subjected to the next-generation sequencing technique RNA-Seq to obtain mutational and gene expression profiles of the cells. Results obtained from this study have the potential to shed light on the drug sensitivity and resistance of cells within specific tumors and across colorectal cancer as a whole.
Kinetically coupled dark energy

description: The main goal of this work is to propose a generalized model of interacting dark energy which allows for the kinetic term of a scalar field to couple to the matter species a priori in the action. We derive the modified field equations, and present novel cosmological solutions for a specific coupled model. One alluring consequence is the emergence of solutions allowing for an early scaling regime, possible due to two novel critical points, followed by a period of accelerated expansion. Using a dynamical system analysis, we show that the presence of the coupling may alter the dynamical nature of the critical points and can be used to enlarge the existence and stability regions of these. Using constraints from Planck data we are able to find an upper bound on the coupling parameter. Finally, it is shown how this theory encapsulates a wide variety of dark energy models already present in the literature.

Three-Level Landau-Zener Dynamics

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We compute Landau-Zener probabilities for 3-level systems with a linear sweep of the uncoupled energy levels of the 3$\times$3 Hamiltonian $H(t)$. Two symmetry classes of Hamiltonians are studied: For $H(t) \in$ su(2) (expressible as a linear combination of the three spin 1 matrices), an analytic solution to the problem is obtained in terms of the parabolic cylinder $D$ functions. For $H(t) \in$ su(3) (expressible as a linear combination of the eight Gell-Mann matrices), numerical solutions are obtained. In the adiabatic regime, full population transfer is obtained asymptotically at large time, but at intermediate times, all three levels are populated and Stückelberg oscillations are typically manifest. For the open system, (wherein interaction with a reservoir occurs), we numerically solve a Markovian quantum master equation for the density matrix with Lindblad operators that models interaction with isotropic white Gaussian noise. We find that Stückelberg oscillations are suppressed and that the temporal decay law of the population probabilities is not a simple exponential.

INCREASED EXOTIC INVASIVE PLANT RESPONSE TO NATURAL DISTURBANCE AND ELEVATED DEER POPULATIONS
Creators: name: Snitzer, John
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2009

description: Remnants of Hurricane Isabel damaged forest canopy in a pre-existing one hectare research plot in Maryland in 2003. Roughly 25 percent of the tree canopy was damaged or destroyed by wind. Patterns of change of native and exotic plant abundance and species richness were studied to determine the response of plants in the herbaceous layer to this natural disturbance. Exclosed (fenced) and open vegetation plots were constructed to determine the role of preferential herbivory by white-tailed deer in invasion. Exotic plants increased significantly in species richness and abundance after the hurricane. The increase in exotic plant abundance was greater than that of native plants. There was no significant relationship between higher initial native plant diversity and reduced exotic plant invasion. These results :fit in a continuum of diversity-invasibility studies in which the diversity-invasibility relationship changed from negative at small scales to positive at large scales. Preferential herb ivory decreased native plant abundance and increased exotic plant abundance. Results suggest that fencing to reduce deer browse may be more effective than herbicide treatment at controlling exotic plants.
An analytic implementation of the IR-resummation for the BAO peak

description: We develop an analytic method for implementing the IR-resummation of arXiv:1404.5954, which allows one to correctly and consistently describe the imprint of baryon acoustic oscillations (BAO) on statistical observables in large-scale structure. We show that the final IR-resummed correlation function can be computed analytically without relying on numerical integration, thus allowing for an efficient and accurate use of these predictions on real data in cosmological parameter fitting. In this work we focus on the one-loop correlation function and the BAO peak. We show that, compared with the standard numerical integration method of IR-resummation, the new method is accurate to better than 0.2 %, and is quite easily improvable. We also give an approximate resummation scheme which is based on using the linear displacements of a fixed fiducial cosmology, which when combined with the method described above, is about six times faster than the standard numerical integration. Finally, we show that this analytic method is generalizable to higher loop computations.

description: The mechanical and magnetic properties of the newly discovered MAB-phase class of materials based upon AlFe2B2 were investigated. The samples were synthesised from stoichiometric amounts of all constituent elements. X-ray diffraction shows that the main phase is orthorhombic with an elongated b-axis, similar to AlFe2B2. The low hardness and visual inspection of the samples after deformation indicate that these compounds are deformed via a delamination process. When substituting iron in AlFe2B2 with manganese, the magnetism in the system goes from being ferro- to antiferromagnetic via a disordered ferrimagnetic phase exhibited by AlFeMnB2. Density functional theory calculations indicate a weakening of the magnetic interactions among the transitions metal ions as iron is substituted by manganese in AlFe2B2. The Mn-Mn exchange interactions in AlMn2 B2 are found to be very small.
ULTRA-STRUCTURAL STUDIES OF THE ACCUMULATION OF CHOLESTEROLS IN LYSOSOME OF FIBROBLAST CELL LINES DERIVED FROM NIEMANN-PICK TYPE C PATIENTS
Creators: name: Soheilian, Masoumeh Ferri
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository

description: Niemann-Pick disease, type C (NPC), is a fatal autosomal recessive lysosomal storage disorder resulting in fatal neurodegeneration. It is caused by mutations in either of two genes Npc1 or Npc2 that results in accumulation of unesterified cholesterol and glycosphingolipids in lysosomes. Delta-Tocopherol and Methyl-Beta-Cyclodextrin have shown to reduce cholesterol accumulation in NPC cells. In this thesis, we used room temperature TEM and high pressure freeze/freeze substitution TEM methods for ultrastructural analysis of healthy control, NPC, and NPC cells treated with delta-tocopherol and methyl-betacyclodextrin. HPF method significantly improved ultrastructure of these cells. We showed vast and enlarged late endosome/lysosome with multi-lamellar, multi-vesicular and osmiophilic dense bodies as the pathological phenotype of NPC cells. We showed delta-tocopherol and methyl-beta-cyclodextrin significantly reduced cholesterol accumulation by reducing the number and size of enlarged late endosome/lysosome compartments in NPC cells. Our results were based on combined data from fluorescence microscopy, RT-TEM and HPF-TEM ultrastructural analysis.
THE EFFECTS OF INTERNET BUSINESS MODEL PATENTS IN ELECTRONIC COMMERCE

description: This paper addresses the issue of understanding the effects of business method patents on electronic commerce. This subject is currently an important discussion topic among companies with an electronic commerce presence who are racing to win patents on existing business methods using new technology. These patents established a new precedent -- that never before had patents for business methods, such as the management of a stock portfolio over the Internet, been awarded. This paper investigates the conflict that arises as a result of these business method patents. The two competing concerns involve rewarding innovation and inhibiting standardization and competition. This paper will investigate these two competing concerns and argue that achieving a middle ground is the only way to foster competition and technological creativity in this increasingly information-driven society. This paper will further investigate how balancing these two concerns is an essential function of patent law. This paper begins by defining a business model, it then examines the current legal framework for electronic commerce, reviewing recent business method patent cases and existing and new patent legislation, analyzing the economic impact these technological patents will have on the electronic commerce community and presenting recommendations for future research.
METHODOLOGY FOR JUSTIFYING THE REDUCTION IN THE USE OF LABORATORY ANIMALS NEEDED FOR RELEASE AND STABILITY TESTING PURPOSES
Creators: name: Spangler, Tarl
Publisher: name: Maryland Shared Open Access Repository
Year: 2016

description: United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) regulatory guidance documents state that valid scientific data should be obtained by using the minimum number of animals possible; however, guidance documents do not establish that minimum threshold. Instead, they suggest the use of computer simulations in order to determine it. This project uses toxin neutralization assay (TNA) data and employs three different types of resampling simulations: bootstrap, jackknife, and monte carlo, in order to investigate reducing the number of animals to a minimum which are required to achieve a relative potency (RP) that is comparable to a benchmark dataset from a four dose level (DL), twenty animals per DL, study. In these studies, the results showed that computer simulations which used benchmark TNA values, neutralization factors which protects 50% of the cells (NF₅₀), proved it is possible to reduce the total number of animals required to estimate a four DL RP by 25%. Thus, improving the return on investment and efficiency as well as enhancing humane animal use.
