description: We use the Kharzeev-Levin-Nardi model of the low $x$ gluon distributions to fit recent HERA data on charm and longitudinal structure functions. Having checked that this model gives a good description of the data, we use it to predict $F^c_2$ and $F_L$ to be measured in a future electron-ion collider. The results interpolate between those obtained with the de Florian-Sassot and Eskola-Paukkunen-Salgado nuclear gluon distributions. The conclusion of this exercise is that the KLN model, simple as it is, may still be used as an auxiliary tool to make estimates both for heavy ion and electron-ion collisions.

Cosmic Vector Field Gravity: Resolving Hubble Tension via Modified Gravitational Waves and Clock Synchronization

description: We propose a modified gravity theory incorporating a cosmic vector field 𝑈μ to address cosmological tensions. The model predicts testable deviations in gravitational wave propagation and atomic clock synchronization, offering a potential resolution to the Hubble constant discrepancy. By modifying the Einstein field equations with an additional energy-momentum tensor for Uμ, this framework provides an alternative to standard ΛCDM cosmology. The theory suggests a phase shift in gravitational waves and measurable time dilation effects, which could be tested using LIGO/Virgo and ACES (ESA). Finally, we compare our approach with MOND, TeVeS, and scalar-tensor theories, highlighting the unique role of Uμ in modifying spacetime curvature.

description: Ultra-cold atoms in optical lattices realize simple, fundamental models in condensed matter physics. Our 87Rb Bose-Einstein condensate is confined in a harmonic trapping potential to which we add an optical lattice potential. Here we realize the 2D Bose-Hubbard Hamiltonian and focus on the effects of the harmonic trap, not present in bulk condensed matter systems. By measuring condensate fraction we identify the transition from superfluid to Mott insulator as a function of atom density and lattice depth. Our results are in excellent agreement with the quantum Monte Carlo universal state diagram, suitable for trapped systems, introduced by Rigol et al. (Phys. Rev. A 79, 053605 (2009)).

description: In biological systems, expression dynamics that can provide fitted phenotype patterns with respect to a specific function have evolved through mutations. This has been observed in the evolution of proteins for realizing folding dynamics through which a target structure is shaped. We study this evolutionary process by introducing a statistical-mechanical model of interacting spins, where a configuration of spins and their interactions $\bm{J}$ represent a phenotype and genotype, respectively. The phenotype dynamics are given by a stochastic process with temperature $T_{S}$ under a Hamiltonian with $\bm{J}$. The evolution of $\bm{J}$ is also stochastic with temperature $T_{J}$ and follows mutations introduced into $\bm{J}$ and selection based on a fitness defined for a configuration of a given set of target spins. Below a certain temperature $T_{S}^{c2}$, the interactions $\bm{J}$ that achieve the target pattern evolve, whereas another phase transition is observed at $T_{S}^{c1}

description: We are provided with stroke audit data containing patient baseline measures and 5-year follow-up data for patients admitted to two Liverpool based hospitals with acute stroke between January and June 1996. Motivated by this data, we overview previous research on risk factors for survival post-stroke, and review methods for survival analysis and handling missing data. Multiple imputation accounts for the additional uncertainty when handling missing data, however following analysis of multiple imputed data, assessment of model fit is complicated. We derive and justify formal and visual assessment techniques for the proportional hazards assumption of a Cox regression model fitted to multiply imputed data. Multiple imputation using chained equations is a flexible approach for handling missing data, however misspecification of imputation model form can lead to biased and restricted analyses. There is minimal research on handling nonproportional hazards within an imputation framework. We derive suitable imputation model forms to incorporate survival outcomes appropriately in the presence of non-proportional hazards, and ensure approximate compatibility with the analysis model. On correcting analyses to account for non-proportional hazards, model fit is rarely re-assessed in practice, with standard techniques inappropriate for nonstandard models. We develop formal and visual assessment techniques of the proportional hazards assumption for a survival model with a time-split, extending the work of Grambsch and Therneau (1994) and Winnett and Sasieni (2001). Finally, we illustrate the methodological developments achieved within this thesis through application to the stroke audit data. Our analyses identify important risk factors for time to death following stroke, aiding in identification of stroke patients most at risk of death, both in the acute phase and long-term.
Bianchi type III models with anisotropic dark energy

description: The general form of the anisotropy parameter of the expansion for Bianchi type-III metric is obtained in the presence of a single diagonal imperfect fluid with a dynamically anisotropic equation of state parameter and a dynamical energy density in general relativity. A special law is assumed for the anisotropy of the fluid which reduces the anisotropy parameter of the expansion to a simple form. The exact solutions of the Einstein field equations, under the assumption on the anisotropy of the fluid, are obtained for exponential and power-law volumetric expansions. The isotropy of the fluid, space and expansion are examined. It is observed that the universe can approach to isotropy monotonically even in the presence of an anisotropic fluid. The anisotropy of the fluid also isotropizes at later times for accelerating models and evolves into the well-known cosmological constant in the model for exponential volumetric expansion.

The intergenerational transfer of nikkei memory : museums facing the absence of “witness” founders
Creators: name: Kawamura, Naomi
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2024

description: Museums shape collective identity by presenting coherent narratives of a shared past. This research explores dimensions of collective memory and group identity by examining two community-founded museums, the Japanese American National Museum, and the Nikkei National Museum & Cultural Centre. The forcible removal, dispossession, and incarceration of people of Japanese ancestry in the United States and Canada during the Second World War significantly influenced the representation of collective identity of the two communities that have long supported and operated these museums. In addition, preservation and education about the wartime experiences are the founding mandates of both museums in this study. As the survivors of the wartime removal and incarceration pass on, so are the generation of those who served as founding leadership of these community institutions. I employ a collective case study approach to explore how these museums prepared for and experienced the passing of an influential generation of survivor-witnesses and founders who have anchored these institutions. Specifically, I examine how the next generation of museum staff experiencing this critical transition is making sense of and conceptualizing collective identity, collective memory, and the future of these museums. My research focuses on the generation of museum staff who have no lived experiences of the wartime incarceration, but whose collective memories of the war have shaped their understandings of race, community, memory, and history. The analysis demonstrates that the successive generations of staff wrestle with issues of individual and group identity through their work, engage in practices that centre the cultivation of community, and explore ways to make space for previously occluded stories and identities. This study illustrates museums as active living sites where group identity evolves and emerges and where communities productively interrogate issues surrounding identity and memory.

description: Śiddôṇ had four wards : Bairro da Igreja, Nazareth, Pale and Purdi. Śiddôṇ village did not have a gāṁvkārī in recent times; at least there are no records to show that it had one. It could have had one at a very early date which got extinguished for some reason. Could it be because the village did not have much of paddy fields, and most of the inhabitants were fishers and toddy-tappers ? Bosquejo makes a mention of a large plot named Morgado, owned by Antonio Matias Gomes from Panjim, which extended beyond Śiddôṇ to Curca and Goa Velha. [Xavier, 1907 : Bosquejo Historico das Comunidades das Aldeas dos Concelhos das Ilhas, Salcete e Bardez, vol. 2, 232] Morgado literally means the first born, which is the eldest son in the family; which family could it be ? Bosquejo also says that the property was ceded to the Patriarch of Indies by the heirs of its original owner. Presently a good part of land in Śiddôṇ is owned by the Dempos; other landlords include the Velho, Mascarenhas and Waglo families, again not residing in the village. Could they be gāṁvkār of Śiddôṇ who had left the village at some point of time – say the cholera epidemic that struck Śiddôṇ between 1790 and 1810 ? Or could the land have been acquired from the heirs of those who perished or fled during the epidemic ?
Experiment, theory and the Casimir effect

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: Several problems at the interface between the field-theoretical description of the Casimir effect and experiments on measuring the Casimir force are discussed. One of these problems is connected with the definition of the Casimir free energy in ideal metal rectangular boxes satisfying the general physical requirements. It is shown that the consideration of rectangular boxes with a partition (piston) does not negate the previously known results obtained for boxes without a piston. Both sets of results are found to be in mutual agreement. Another problem is related to the use of the proximity force approximation for the interpretation of the experimental data and to the search of analytical results beyond the PFA based on the first principles of quantum field theory. Next, we discuss concepts of experimental precision and of the measure of agreement between experiment and theory. The fundamental difference between these two concepts is clarified. Finally, recent approach to the thermal Casimir force taking screening effects into account is applied to real metals. It is shown that this approach is thermodynamically and experimentally inconsistent. The physical reasons of this inconsistency are connected with the violation of thermal equilibrium which is the basic applicability condition of the Lifshitz theory.

description: The ratio of central charges in four-dimensional CFTs has been suggested by Hofman and Maldacena to lie within an interval whose boundaries are fixed by the number of supersymmetries. We compute this ratio for a set of interacting N=1 superconformal field theories which arise as RG fixed points of supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories with adjoint and fundamental matter. We do not find violations of the proposed bounds, which appear to be saturated by free field theories.

description: In popular music studies, androgyny is frequently used to describe a performance that demonstrates a fusion of male and female characteristics. The commitment to the image of the androgyne dominates interpretative strategies, and any discussion of how androgyny might be expressed in a song’s musical elements are orientated around the concept’s visual presence. In this thesis, I develop and apply a practice of ‘listening out’ to androgynous expression in the musical fabric of popular song, and I mobilise this through a comparative analysis of Virginia Woolf’s novel The Waves (1931) and Kate Bush’s song cycle A Sky of Honey (2005). I begin by providing an overview of the study of gender and sex in popular music, before focussing on examples that specifically consider androgyny. Identifying key discourses and methodological approaches I consider the possibilities and limitations in existing strategies. I close the chapter with some preliminary thoughts on how ‘listening out’ can enrich the understanding of androgyny’s expressive capacity. In chapter one, I explore Woolf’s formulation of androgyny as presented in A Room. By surveying critical responses to her formulation, I claim that the textual expression of Woolf’sandrogyny shifts the focus away from the specificity of the sexed/gendered body of the androgyne. I then consider the reception of Bush’s music in academic research, highlighting methodological strategies and her existing connection to androgyny. Drawing parallels between Woolf’s and Bush’s artistic ambitions and their expressions of androgyny, I explore the importance of ekphrastic approaches and musical-theoretical techniques, both for transmedial analysis and the interpretation of androgyny. In chapter two, I begin the comparative analysis of The Waves and A Sky of Honey by examining the creative context surrounding each text. I then explore expressive parallels in form, genre and narrative, before considering how Woolf’s and Bush’s textual representations of pastoral complicates androgyny’s connection to states of nostalgia. In chapter three, I examine the technical expression of characterisation. I argue that the evolving relationship between characters progresses through a state of deconstruction to the disarticulation of ‘I’, and in privileging a choric community reveals the androgynous subject as multiple, fluid and fragmented. The final chapter expands these explorations by examining the material life of androgyny. I mediate this through a study of the revolutionary potential of artistic practice, focussing specifically on the presence of birdsong in both works. Analysing two exceptional moments in A Sky of Honey and recontextualising comparable moments from the final soliloquy of The Waves, I trace the generation and release of androgynous jouissance.

description: Either by collimating a fast stellar wind or by driving a jet via accretion in the central system, dusty torii or stable disks may be crucial ingredients for the shaping of PNe. We study the dust distribution in the very young Proto-Planetary Nebule (PPN) IRAS16342-3814, also known as the Water Fountain Nebula, which is known to show strong bipolar characteristics in the shape of two reflection lobes, and high-velocity collimated molecular outlfows. We use the new Mid-IR (MIR) instrument VISIR on the Very Large Telescope (VLT) both in imaging and spectroscopy mode at wavelengths from 8 to 13 micron. We present the first spatially resolved MIR observations of a dusty evolved star obtained with VISIR and find that the improved spatial resolution contradicts previous claims of an elliptical brightness distribution at the heart of IRAS16342: we find the waist region to be dark even in the MIR. We show that the filling angle of the obscuring dust lane, which is made mostly of amorphous silicates, is very large, possibly even close to a spherically symmetric superwind as seen in OH/IR stars. We conclude that, in contrast to the multitude of recent dusty-disk detections in Post-AGB stars and PNe, IRAS16342 does not show this extreme equatorial density enhancement, at least not on the scale of the dusty environment which lends the object its IR appearance. Rather, it appears that the observed precessing jets are shaping the bipolar nature in the remains of a spherically symmetric AGB superwind.

description: In an ideal two-component two-dimensional electron system, particle-hole symmetry dictates that the fractional quantum Hall states around $ν= 1/2$ are equivalent to those around $ν= 3/2$. We demonstrate that composite fermions (CFs) around $ν= 1/2$ in AlAs possess a valley degree of freedom like their counterparts around $ν= 3/2$. However, focusing on $ν= 2/3$ and 4/3, we find that the energy needed to completely valley polarize the CFs around $ν= 1/2$ is considerably smaller than the corresponding value for CFs around $ν= 3/2$ thus betraying a particle-hole symmetry breaking.

Extraction of social determinants of health from electronic health records using natural language processing
Creators: name: Chen, Zhenghua
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2024

description: Purpose: Social Determinants of Health (SDoH) have a significant impact on hu- man health outcomes and disparities. Collecting SDoH from electronic health records can facilitate decision-making and downstream research. With thousands of clinical records, automated extraction methods using Artificial Intelligence (AI) would be more efficient and cost-effective. This study aims to autonomously extract comprehensive SDoH details from Electronic Health Records (EHR) using a Natural Language Processing (NLP) based AI pipeline. Methods: One thousand documents from BC Cancer with concentrated SDoH infor- mation were carefully selected and labeled to provide the ground truth for training and assessing the NLP models. Two pipelines were applied for SDoH extraction: an open- source pipeline trained on the BC Cancer dataset and an industrial pre-trained solution used as a benchmark. To optimize the performance of the first pipeline, three experiments were conducted to justify the effect of including subtype word positions during training on the extraction performance. The results of two pipelines were compared and the best- performing one was subsequently employed for the extraction of SDoH information from a total of 13,258 oncology documents. Results: The open-source pipeline gained an average F1 score of 0.88 on the validation dataset for extracting 13 SDoH factors, outperforming the benchmark by 5%. This pipeline also demonstrated a notably superior capability to extract detailed subtypes compared with the benchmark. The benchmark was advantageous in identifying rarely documented SDoH types in the data for extraction in this work. Subsequently, the pipeline was applied to the oncology documents from BC Cancer to extract 60,717 SDoH factors and associated details. The most frequently extracted SDoH were Tobacco Use, Employment Status, Marital Status, Alcohol Consumption, and Living Status, which occurred from 8k to 12k times. Conclusion: The NLP pipeline successfully extracted a wide array of SDoH factors from clinical notes, achieving commendable performance despite being trained on a rela- tively small labeled dataset.

description: The Gamma-RAy Polarimeter Experiment (GRAPE) is a concept for an astronomical hard X-ray Compton polarimeter operating in the 50 - 500 keV energy band. The instrument has been optimized for wide-field polarization measurements of transient outbursts from energetic astrophysical objects such as gamma-ray bursts and solar flares. The GRAPE instrument is composed of identical modules, each of which consists of an array of scintillator elements read out by a multi-anode photomultiplier tube (MAPMT). Incident photons Compton scatter in plastic scintillator elements and are subsequently absorbed in inorganic scintillator elements; a net polarization signal is revealed by a characteristic asymmetry in the azimuthal scattering angles. We have constructed a prototype GRAPE module containing a single CsI(Na) calorimeter element, at the center of the MAPMT, surrounded by 60 plastic elements. The prototype has been combined with custom readout electronics and software to create a complete "engineering model" of the GRAPE instrument. This engineering model has been calibrated using a nearly 100% polarized hard X-ray beam at the Advanced Photon Source at Argonne National Laboratory. We find modulation factors of 0.46 +/- 0.06 and 0.48 +/- 0.03 at 69.5 keV and 129.5 keV, respectively, in good agreement with Monte Carlo simulations. In this paper we present details of the beam test, data analysis, and simulations, and discuss the implications of our results for the further development of the GRAPE concept.

description: The fundamental paradox of the incompatibility of the observed large-scale uniformity of the Universe with the fact that the age of the Universe is finite is overcome by the introduction of an initial a period of superluminal expansion of space, called cosmic inflation. Inflation can also produce the small deviations from uniformity needed for the formation of structures in the Universe such as galaxies. This is achieved by the conjunction of inflation with the quantum vacuum, through the so-called particle production process. This mechanism is explained and linked with Hawking radiation of black holes. The nature of the particles involved is discussed and the case of using massive vector boson fields instead of scalar fields is presented, with emphasis on its distinct observational signatures. Finally, a particular implementation of these ideas is included, which can link the formation of galaxies, the standard model vector bosons and the observed galactic magnetic fields.

We show that the set of observables {Z \otimes X, (cosθ)X + (sinθ)Y all θ\in [0, 2π)} with one ancillary qubit is universal for quantum computation. The set is simpler than a previous one in the sense that one-qubit projective measurements described by the observables in the set are ones only in the (X,Y) plane of the Bloch sphere. The proof of the universality immediately implies a simple set of observables that is approximately universal for quantum computation. Moreover, the proof implies a simple set of observables for preparing graph states efficiently.

description: We announce the discovery of a new Milky Way satellite Segue 2 found in the data of the Sloan Extension for Galactic Understanding and Exploration (SEGUE). We followed this up with deeper imaging and spectroscopy on the Multiple Mirror Telescope. From this, we derive a luminosity of M_v = -2.5, a half-light radius of 34 pc and a systemic velocity of -40$ km/s. Our MMT data also provides evidence for a stream around Segue 2 at a similar heliocentric velocity, and the SEGUE data show that it is also present in neighboring fields. We resolve the velocity dispersion of Segue 2 as 3.4 km/s and the possible stream as about 7 km/s. This object shows points of comparison with other recent discoveries, Segue 1, Boo II and Coma. We speculate that all four objects may be representatives of a population of satellites of satellites -- survivors of accretion events that destroyed their larger but less dense parents. They are likely to have formed at redshifts z > 10 and are good candidates for fossils of the reionization epoch.

description: Starting from a 5D Riemann flat metric, we have induced an effective 4D Hermitian metric which has an antisymmetric part which is purely imaginary. We have worked an example in which both, non-metricity and contorsion are zero. We obtained that the production of monopoles should be insignificant at the end of inflation and the tensor metric should come asymptotically diagonal and describing a nearly 4D de Sitter expansion.

description: We use Kelvin Force Microscopy (KFM) to study the electrostatic properties of single-walled Carbon Nanotube Field Effect Transistor devices (CNTFETs) with backgate geometry at room temperature. We show that KFM maps recorded as a function of the device backgate polarization enable a complete phenomenological determination of the averaging effects associated with the KFM probe side capacitances, and thus, to obtain KFM measurements with quantitative character. The value of the electrostatic lever arm of the CNTFET is determined from KFM measurements, and found in agreement with transport measurements based on Coulomb blockade.

Topics in numerical relativity
Creators: name: Reid, Gray
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: In this thesis we present a series of studies in numerical relativity investigating stability, hyperbolicity and critical phenomena. The first part of our work is dedicated to the study of d-stars, hypothetical objects consisting of a boson star and global monopole minimally or nonminimally coupled to the general relativistic gravitational field. The space of solutions for these systems is large and, for a wide range of coupling parameters, exhibits ground state solutions with asymptotic shells of bosonic matter. After demonstrating the existence of these stationary solutions, we turn our attention to their stability through a combination of perturbation theory and dynamical simulation. In doing so, we demonstrate that the novel solutions we have found, as well as the highly compact solutions investigated by previous authors, appear to be generically unstable to radial perturbations. As such, we find that d-stars are poor candidates for astrophysically relevant black hole mimickers. Generalizing from the stability of solutions to the stability of methods, we introduce a novel formulation of numerical relativity which we refer to as reference metric covariant and conformal Z4 (RCCZ4). Like its Z4 namesake, RCCZ4 promotes the 3+1 Hamiltonian and momentum constraints to dynamical degrees of freedom. Unlike Z4 however, RCCZ4 accomplishes this by coupling the constraints to a reference metric completely independent of the physical metric. Although we have only investigated RCCZ4 in the case of time independent Lorenzian reference metrics, the method may generalize to user specifiable reference metrics which could potentially confer additional beneficial properties. Even in this simple case, however, the performance of RCCZ4 is comparable to leading hyperbolic formulations. The final part of our thesis works towards developing superior understanding of strong field gravity through the investigation of gravitational collapse. We consider the system consisting of the electromagnetic and general relativistic gravitational fields and investigate the threshold of black hole formation in axisymmetry. Previous studies of this system have reported family dependent scaling phenomena as criticality is approached. Although we find good agreement with previous investigations of dipole-type initial data, our investigations of quadrupole-type initial data point towards universal scaling as opposed to family dependent scaling.
Photonic analogue of Josephson effect in a dual-species optical-lattice cavity

description: We extend the idea of quantum phase transitions of light in the photonic Bose-Hubbard model with interactions to two atomic species by a self-consistent mean field theory. The excitation of two-level atoms interacting with coherent photon fields is analyzed with a finite temperature dependence of the order parameters. Four ground states of the system are found, including an isolated Mott-insulator phase and three different superfluid phases. Like two weakly coupled superconductors, our proposed dual-species lattice system shows a photonic analogue of Josephson effect. The dynamics of the proposed two species model provides a promising quantum simulator for possible quantum information processes.

description: Spectroscopy of the centrosymmetric magnetic semiconductors EuTe and EuSe reveals spin-induced optical second harmonic generation (SHG) in the band gap vicinity at 2.1-2.4eV. The magnetic field and temperature dependence demonstrates that the SHG arises from the bulk of the materials due to a novel type of nonlinear optical susceptibility caused by the magnetic dipole contribution combined with spontaneous or induced magnetization. This spin-induced susceptibility opens access to a wide class of centrosymmetric systems by harmonics generation spectroscopy.

description: For a Hilbert space H included in L^1_{loc} (R) of functions on $R we obtain a representation theorem for the multipliers M commuting with the shift operator S. This generalizes the classical result for multipliers in L^2(R) as well as our previous result for multipliers in weighted space Lw^2(R). Moreover, we obtain a description of the spectrum of S.

description: We have performed deep, wide-field imaging on a ~0.4 deg^2 field in the Pleiades (Melotte 22). The selected field was not yet target of a deep search for low mass stars and brown dwarfs. Our limiting magnitudes are R ~ 22mag and I ~ 20mag, sufficient to detect brown dwarf candidates down to 40MJ. We found 197 objects, whose location in the (I, R - I) color magnitude diagram is consistent with the age and the distance of the Pleiades. Using CTK R and I as well as JHK photometry from our data and the 2MASS survey we were able to identify 7 new brown dwarf candidates. We present our data reduction technique, which enables us to resample, calibrate, and co-add many images by just two steps. We estimate the interstellar extinction and the spectral type from our optical and the NIR data using a two-dimensional chi^22 fitting.
