Non-Kramers degeneracy and oscillatory tunnel splittings in the biaxial Spin System
Creators: name: Zhang, Degang

description: We have investigated analytically quantum tunneling of large spin in the biaxial spin system with the magnetic field applied along the hard and medium anisotropy axes by using a purely quantum-mechanical approach. When the magnetic field parallels the hard axis, the tunnel splittings of all the energy level pairs are oscillatory as a function of the magnetic field. The quenching points are completely determined by the coexistence of solutions of the Ince's equation. When the magnetic field points the medium axis, the tunnel splitting oscillations disappear due to no coexistence of solutions. These results coincide the recent experimental observations in the nanomagnet Fe$_8$.

description: The specific ion effect on foamability and foam stability was investigated. The foams were prepared from the aqueous solutions of a zwitterionic surfactant [i.e. N-Dodecyl-N,N-dimethyl-3-ammonio-1-propanesulfonate (DDAPS)] in the presence of three monovalent salts (i.e. LiCl, NaCl, and CsCl). Addition of salt to the DDAPS solution increased the adsorption of surfactant at the interface and decreased the CMC. The efficiency of these salts in decreasing the surface and interfacial tension followed the order: CsCl > NaCl > LiCl. Similarly, the efficiency of these salts in decreasing the foam stability followed the above-mentioned order. The zeta potential at the hexane–water interface was measured. The efficiency of the salts in making the zeta potential more negative followed the same order. The hydrated radii of the ions played a significant role in the foaming properties of the surfactant solutions.

description: This research project investigates the incidence of student dropout in secondary schools within Okigwe Local Government Area of Imo State. The study explores various factors contributing to dropout rates, including socio-economic challenges, family background, and educational resource availability. Data were collected through surveys and interviews with students, teachers, and parents. Findings indicate that financial constraints, poor academic performance, and lack of parental involvement are primary factors driving school dropout. The project provides evidence-based recommendations aimed at improving student retention and educational outcomes in the region.
Hydrodynamical Simulations of the Stream-Core Interaction in the Slow Merger of Massive Stars

description: We present detailed simulations of the interaction of a stream emanating from a mass-losing secondary with the core of a massive supergiant in the slow merger of the two stars inside a common envelope. The dynamics of the stream can be divided into a ballistic phase, starting at the L_1 point, and a hydrodynamical phase where the stream interacts strongly with the core. Considering the merger of a 1 and 5Msun star with a 20Msun evolved supergiant, we present two-dimensional hydrodynamical simulations using the PROMETHEUS code to demonstrate how the penetration depth and post-impact conditions depend on the initial properties of stream material (e.g. entropy, angular momentum, stream width) and the properties of the core (e.g. density structure and rotation rate). Using these results, we present a fitting formula for the entropy generated in the stream--core interaction and a recipe for the determination of the penetration depth based on a modified Bernoulli integral.

Block Factor-width-two Matrices and Their Applications to Semidefinite and Sum-of-squares Optimization

description: Semidefinite and sum-of-squares (SOS) optimization are fundamental computational tools in many areas, including linear and nonlinear systems theory. However, the scale of problems that can be addressed reliably and efficiently is still limited. In this paper, we introduce a new notion of block factor-width-two matrices and build a new hierarchy of inner and outer approximations of the cone of positive semidefinite (PSD) matrices. This notion is a block extension of the standard factor-width-two matrices, and allows for an improved inner-approximation of the PSD cone. In the context of SOS optimization, this leads to a block extension of the scaled diagonally dominant sum-of-squares (SDSOS) polynomials. By varying a matrix partition, the notion of block factor-width-two matrices can balance a trade-off between the computation scalability and solution quality for solving semidefinite and SOS optimization problems. Numerical experiments on a range of large-scale instances confirm our theoretical findings.

description: Dielectric response effects on wave localization in random periodic-on-average layered systems (POAS) are studied. Based on Monte Carlo simulations and products of Random Matrices, statistics of the Lyapunovmexponent are determined efficiently for very long systems. A novel oscillatory behavior for the Lyapunov exponent is found and explained for mildly strong scattering conditions. We also show the emergence of strongly localized states in metallic layered systems with intermediate disorder for frequencies above the plasma frequency $ω_{p}$ of metals, as is not shown in dielectrics. Furthermore, the violation of universal single parameter scaling behaviors in different regimes of multiple scattering is discussed.

description: The asymptotic behavior of holomorphic families of generalized eigenfunctions on a reductive symmetric space is studied. The family parameter is a complex character on the split component of a parabolic subgroup. The main result asserts that the family vanishes if a particular asymptotic coefficient does. This allows an induction of relations between families that will be applied in forthcoming work on the Plancherel and the Paley-Wiener theorem.

description: On the basis of definition and classification of rural public goods, this paper analyses the status quo of public goods supply in vast rural areas of China, and it indicates mat the electricity and communication facility in rural areas have not yet been popularized; the culture and education facility is critically backward; the medical care and social warfare institutions are short. It points out the rational supply model of public goods as follows: the government plays dominant role in the public goods supply with a large amount of investments, related to the quality of living and production of multitudinous farmers; small wieldy quasi-public goods that can be easily supplied and marginalized public goods can introduce multiplex supply main body under the framework of government guidance. According to this model, corresponding policy suggestions are put forward as follows, increase financial inputs, and perfect local financial system; actively encourage the majority of farmers in rural areas to participate in public goods supply mechanism, so mat the supply has pertinence; vigorously develop multiplex supply system of rural public goods, to ensure effective supply.

description: Physical models of circumstellar disks surrounding pre-main sequence stars are currently constrained primarily by the spectral energy distribution (SED) of the system. Here we present first results from a survey of nearby Herbig Ae stars using nulling interferometry. We measure the spatial extent of the mid-IR emission for the stars HD 150193, HD 163296, and HD 179218. The results indicate the size of mid-infrared emission around Herbig Ae stars may be much smaller than current models predict. The observations constrain ~90% of the 10 micron flux to be within an approximately 20 AU diameter region, providing significant spatial limits for disk models. These results demonstrate the scientific potential for nulling interferometry to study circumstellar disks with better spatial discernment than is possible with standard mid-infrared imaging.

description: Taking Sichuan Province as an example, by using the overall evaluation function of Sichuan's rural public service equalization development level and rural socio-economic development level. We conduct profound analysis on coordination between public service in Sichuan's rural areas and socio-economic development from 2003 to 2008. The results show that the coordination between rural public service and socio-economic development in Sichuan Province is not high, and the equalization phenomenon of rural public service construction and socio-economic development is very prominent. The equalization development of public service in rural areas of Sichuan Province from 2003 to 2008 lags behind socio-economic development. The coordination between public service equalization system in rural areas of Sichuan Province and socio-economic development system abates continuously; the coordination between infrastructure and socio-economic development increases slowly; the coordination between education and socio-economic development declines sharply; the coordination between public culture and socio-economic development tends to decrease; the coordination between ecological environment construction and socio-economic development decreases continuously with great amplitude: the coordination between public health and socio-economic development decreases continuously; the coordination between science and technology and socio-economic development lingers at low level: the coordination between social security and employment. and socio-economic development . increases in fluctuation, but With small-amplitude.

description: The bound states that can occur in a superfluid vortex have recently called for attention owing to the capability of detecting them experimentally. However, a detailed theoretical account for the presence of these vortex bound states is still lacking, for all temperatures in the superfluid phase and couplings along the BCS-BEC crossover. Here, we fill this gap and present a systematic theoretical study based on the Bogoliubov-de~Gennes equations for the bound states that occur over the two characteristic (inner and outer) spatial ranges in which the extension of a superfluid vortex can be partitioned. It is found that the total number of bound states decreases from the BCS (weak-coupling) side of the crossover toward the intermediate-coupling region where they are still present, whereas the bound states disappear upon entering the BEC (strong-coupling) side. A scaling relation is also obtained that connects the number of bound states in the inner spatial range of the vortex to the depth and width of the vortex itself. A criterion is finally provided in terms of the local density of states, to distinguish where a given fermionic superfluid is located in the coupling-temperature phase diagram of the BCS-BEC crossover.

Spin-Lattice Relaxation in Si Quantum Dots

description: We consider spin-lattice relaxation processes for electrons trapped in lateral Si quantum dots in a $[001]$ inversion layer. Such dots are characterized by strong confinement in the direction perpendicular to the surface and much weaker confinement in the lateral direction. The spin relaxation is assumed to be due to the modulation of electron $g$-factor by the phonon-induced strain, as was shown previously for the shallow donors. The results clearly indicate that the specific valley structure of the ground electron state in Si quantum dots causes strong anisotropy for both the one-phonon and two-phonon spin relaxation rates. In addition, it gives rise to a partial suppression of the two-phonon relaxation in comparison to the spin relaxation of donor electrons.

description: Application of algicidal bacteria is a promising technology to control harmful algal blooms (HABs). In this study, algicidal bacteria strains Shigella sp. H3 and Alcaligenes sp. H5 were obtained via two different isolation methods from the same lake water sample, with optimal algicidal efficiencies 96% and 74% against algae mixture. The Shigella sp. H3 and Alcaligenes sp. H5 lysed algae cells through cells-to-cells direct contact and secretion of algicidal metabolites, respectively. The stronger algicidal capability of Shigella sp. H3 was also attributable to its higher efficiency for triggering reactive oxygen species, which led to broken down of the antioxidant system and more severe damage to the bacterial cells. The antioxidant enzyme activities in Alcaligenes sp. H5 group were still expressed because of its relatively weaker algicidal capability and some intact algal cells were remained. The liquid carbohydrates from algal lysis in both groups increased significantly, whereas the quantities of liquid protein decreased, which might be assimilated by algicidal bacteria. Nonetheless, the whole algicidal process resulted in the increase of total released organic matters content. This study revealed the algicidal pathways of diverse bacterial strains, and the possible secondary environmental problem caused by the algal released organic matters should be considered when applying bacteria to control HABs.

description: Background: Cannabis (MJ) policy liberalization in a majority of US states has impacted emergency department (ED) visits. It is important to understand why people come to the ED after using MJ because the drug is now available to experienced and naïve people across the country. The objectives of this study were to (1) improve upon administrative dataset methodology by performing additional chart review to describe ED visits related to cannabis, (2) understand why patients come to the ED after using cannabis, and (3) begin to inform our understanding of cannabis-attributable ED visits to start to educate patients and providers about cannabis’ safety. Methods: We performed a retrospective chart review of ED visits identified by cannabis ICD-9 and 10-CM codes between 2012 and 2016. Visits were reviewed and determined if the visit was partially attributable to cannabis based upon a pre-specified definition, then categorized into clinical complaint categories. Descriptive statistics, Chi-Square, and T-tests were used to elucidate the data. Results: About one-fourth (25.74%) of visits with cannabis ICD-CM codes were found to be at least partially attributable to cannabis. These patients are more often young, Caucasian males when compared to the overall ED population (p p p=.012). Conclusions: Based on a pre-specified definition, with good inter-rater reliability, we found that 25% of visits with a cannabis ICD-CM code were partially attributable to cannabis. These findings represent areas to target in cannabis user education as public perceptions change across time.

description: As of today, large-scale wireless sensor networks are adopted for smart building applications as they are easy and flexible to deploy. Low-power wireless nodes can achieve multi-year lifetimes with an AA battery using Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) and Zig-Bee. However, replacing these batteries at scale is a non-trivial, labor-intensive task. Energy harvesting has emerged as a potential solution to avoid battery replacement but requires compromises such as application specific sensor node design, simplified communication protocol or reduced quality of service. We show the design of a battery-free sensor node using commercial off the shelf components, and present Pible: a Perpetual Indoor BLE sensor node that uses an ambient light energy harvesting system and can support numerous smart building applications. We show trade-offs between node-lifetime, quality of service and light availability and present a predictive algorithm that adapts to changing lighting conditions to maximize node lifetime and application quality of service.

description: We report a study on the interplay between antiferromagnetism (AFM) and superconductivity (SC) in a heavy-fermion compound CeRhIn$_5$ under pressure $P=1.75$ GPa. The onset of the magnetic order is evidenced from a clear split of $^{115}$In-NQR spectrum due to the spontaneous internal field below the Néel temperature $T_N=2.5$ K. Simultaneously, bulk SC below $T_c=2.0$ K is demonstrated by the observation of the Meissner diamagnetism signal whose size is the same as in the exclusively superconducting phase. These results indicate that the AFM coexists homogeneously with the SC at a microscopic level.

description: The paper combs the problems about living difficulties of farmers and marketing economy in the risk society and puts forward another point of view that with the theory of risk society, reconsider the dilemma of living choices of farmers under the background of marketing economy. On the basis of the statistics, the paper discloses the trend of larger and larger disparities of incomes between urban and rural areas; the paper explains the risks and uncertainties of life choices with the background of deepening marketing economy. In order to understand the life dilemma of farmers and marketing economy in the risk society, the paper makes an analysis from perspectives of the relationships between risk society and markets, the risks of farmers' living choices. The results show that in the risk society, because of the division space from time, the personal farmers are devoid of the safe environment. Then the situation deepens to worse. In addition to the organization which is not in charge results in a situation that the personal farmers would take ail risks by themselves.

description: From analysis on the plight of promotion of agricultural modernization through endogenous increase of farmers' income, it is believed that the fundamental obstacle lies in inherent weakness of agriculture, lagging of farmers' quality, as well as defectiveness of agricultural external system. On this basis, an available path, namely energetically developing the industrialized, market-oriented and knowledge-based agriculture is put forward.

description: Based on the theory of unbalanced growth, we analyze priority strategy of different regions in China. It is prior to enhance the quality of urbanization in the East, make a long-term planning for construction of small towns, focus on harmony between human and nature, so as to realize its development to integrate with international urbanization level. For the middle areas, urbanization and construction of new countryside should be developed simultaneously, take a road of interactive development of urban and rural areas, finally to raise the level of urbanization. As to the western areas, it is required to firstly build new countryside, focus on construction of infrastructural facilities, adjust and optimize structure of agricultural production, and push forward the agricultural industrialization.

description: In this paper we show that 1-electron properties such as Compton profiles and structure factors of crystals can be asymptotically retrieved through cluster-based calculations, followed by an appropriate partition of the 1-electron reduced density matrix (1RDM). This approach, conceptually simple, is checked with respects to both position and momentum spaces simultaneously for insulators and a covalent crystal. Restricting the calculations to small clusters further enables a fair description of local correlation effects in ionic compounds, which improves both Compton profiles and structure factors vs. their experimentally determined counterparts.

description: We report Chandra ACIS and quasi-simultaneous RXTE observations of the nearby, powerful radio galaxy Cygnus A, with the present paper focusing on the properties of the active nucleus. In the Chandra observation, the hard (> a few keV) X-ray emission is spatially unresolved with a size \approxlt 1 arcsec (1.5 kpc, H_0 = 50 km s^-1 Mpc^-1) and coincides with the radio and near infrared nuclei. In contrast, the soft (< 2 keV) emission exhibits a bi-polar nebulosity that aligns with the optical bi-polar continuum and emission-line structures and approximately with the radio jet. In particular, the soft X-ray emission corresponds very well with the [O III] λ5007 and Hα+ [N II] λλ6548, 6583 nebulosity imaged with HST. At the location of the nucleus there is only weak soft X-ray emission, an effect that may be intrinsic or result from a dust lane that crosses the nucleus perpendicular to the source axis. The spectra of the various X-ray components have been obtained by simultaneous fits to the 6 detectors. The compact nucleus is detected to 100 keV and is well described by a heavily absorbed power law spectrum with Γ_h = 1.52^{+0.12}_{-0.12} (similar to other narrow line radio galaxies) and equivalent hydrogen column N_H (nuc) = 2.0^{+0.1}_{-0.2} \times 10^{23} cm^-2.

title: Singer-Songwriters: An Investigation into the Formulation of Singer-Songwriters' Vocal Performance
Creators: name: Loxlea-Danann, Laine M
Publisher: name: Griffith University
Year: 2024
Subjects: subject: singer-songwriters
subject: vocal performance
subject: CCM singing

description: While songwriting and songcraft have been discussed and reported by a range of authors in the literature, there appears to be a lack of research-based inquiry into singer-songwriters' compositional processes and how they formulate, create, and design their vocal performance of their original songs. In this doctoral research project, the participants were six professional singer-songwriters (SSWs) who self-identified as performers and focused primarily on writing and performing their own original compositions while also performing covers when required to do so in certain performance environments. Three stages of data collection were designed and conducted to interrogate the topic: Stage 1 consisted of interviews; Stage 2 involved a workshop performance for the participants; and Stage 3 was a focus group discussion. Additionally, as a professional SSW, performer, and teacher in her own right, the researcher positioned herself within the study, documenting this participation as an autoethnographic report. Information derived from this study sheds new light on a range of elements pertaining to SSWs' craft, including insights into the compositional process, how singer-songwriters formulate their vocal performance of their own songs, whether their own vocal capability is considered during the compositional phase, whether singer-songwriters inherently know how to sing their own songs, and whether the formulation of the vocal performance of an original song is the same as singing 'cover' songs (songs composed/performed by others). Findings from the data sets have illuminated a multiplicity of elements that underpin SSW participants' approaches to their craft.
Rigid nongeometric orientifolds and the swampland

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: Nongeometric flux compactifications with frozen complex structure moduli have been recently studied for several phenomenological purposes. In this context, we analyze the possibility of realizing de-Sitter solutions in the context of ${\cal N} =1$ type II nongeometric flux compactifications using the ${\mathbb T}^6/({\mathbb Z}_3 \times {\mathbb Z}_3)$ toroidal orientifolds. For the type IIB case, we observe that the Bianchi identities are too strong to simultaneously allow both the NS-NS three-form flux ($H_3$) and the nongeometric ($Q$) flux to take non-zero values, which makes this model irrelevant for phenomenology due to the no-scale structure. For the type IIA case, we find that all the (nongeometric) flux solutions satisfying the Bianchi identities result in de-Sitter no-go scenarios except for one case in which the no-go condition can be evaded. However for this case also, in our (limited) numerical investigation we do not find any de-Sitter vacua using the integer fluxes satisfying all the Bianchi identities.
