Old fables and their new tricks : exploring revisionist fairytale fantasy in selected texts by Cornelia Funke and Svetlana Martynchik
Creators: name: Dreier, Stephanie
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2018

description: This dissertation argues that the fairytale fantasy, a hybrid genre that combines fairy tale and fantasy characteristics, not only inherits the qualities of its generic predecessors but also unlocks new opportunities for critical reflection. It does so primarily by retelling, revisioning, and reinterpreting familiar scenarios from classic fairy tales. The goal of this study is to provide means to the understanding of the narrative apparatus and the revisionist qualities of the fairytale fantasy genre. Fairytale fantasy is remarkable for its generic flexibility that allows it to reimagine classic fairy tale tropes and challenge readers’ expectations. Through an examination of two sets of case-studies from different national literatures, this dissertation shows that by integrating fairy tale’s historical context with fantasy’s creative capacity, works of fairytale fantasy produce a set of unique intertextual relations and narrative characteristics that influence the reading process in intellectually stimulating ways. Drawing from a comparative analysis of two fairytale fantasy works (Reckless: Steinernes Fleisch by Cornelia Funke and Klyuch iz zheltogo metalla by Svetlana Martynchik) and two fairy tale collections (Kinder- und Hausmärchen by Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, and Zolotoy klyuchik, ili Priklyucheniya Buratino by Alexey Tolstoy), this study combines a historical analysis with a structuralist reading to illustrate how the fairytale fantasy’s generic hybridity enables the transformation of supernatural narrative devices into mechanisms of critical reflection. This work examines the devices by which fairytale fantasy engages readers into the world-building process and draws attention to the educational applications of the genre.

description: A well known problem with Earth Orientation Parameters (EOP) prediction is that a prediction strategy proved to be the best for some testing time span and prediction length may not remain the same for other time intervals. In this paper, we consider possible strategies to combine EOP predictions computed using different analysis techniques to obtain a final prediction with the best accuracy corresponding to the smallest prediction error of input predictions. It was found that this approach is most efficient for ultra-short-term EOP forecast.

description: We demonstrate the unique capabilities of Herschel to study very young luminous extragalactic young stellar objects (YSOs) by analyzing a central strip of the Large Magellanic Cloud obtained through the HERITAGE Science Demonstration Program. We combine PACS 100 and 160, and SPIRE 250, 350, and 500 microns photometry with 2MASS (1.25-2.17 microns) and Spitzer IRAC and MIPS (3.6-70 microns) to construct complete spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of compact sources. From these, we identify 207 candidate embedded YSOs in the observed region, ~40% never-before identified. We discuss their position in far-infrared color-magnitude space, comparing with previously studied, spectroscopically confirmed YSOs and maser emission. All have red colors indicating massive cool envelopes and great youth. We analyze four example YSOs, determining their physical properties by fitting their SEDs with radiative transfer models. Fitting full SEDs including the Herschel data requires us to increase the size and mass of envelopes included in the models. This implies higher accretion rates (greater than or equal to 0.0001 M_sun/yr), in agreement with previous outflow studies of high-mass protostars. Our results show that Herschel provides reliable longwave SEDs of large samples of high-mass YSOs; discovers the youngest YSOs whose SEDs peak in Herschel bands; and constrains the physical properties and evolutionary stages of YSOs more precisely than was previously possible.

description: We use numerical integrations to investigate the dynamical evolution of resonant Trojan and quasi-satellite companions during the late stages of migration of the giant planets Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Our migration simulations begin with Jupiter and Saturn on orbits already well separated from their mutual 2:1 mean-motion resonance. Neptune and Uranus are decoupled from each other and have orbital eccentricities damped to near their current values. From this point we adopt a planet migration model in which the migration speed decreases exponentially with a characteristic timescale tau (the e-folding time). We perform a series of numerical simulations, each involving the migrating giant planets plus test particle Trojans and quasi-satellites. We find that the libration frequencies of Trojans are similar to those of quasi-satellites. This similarity enables a dynamical exchange of objects back and forth between the Trojan and quasi-satellite resonances during planetary migration. Furthermore, under the influence of these secondary resonances quasi-satellites can have their libration amplitudes enlarged until they undergo a close-encounter with their host planet and escape from the resonance. High-resolution simulations of this escape process reveal that ~80% of Jovian quasi-satellites experience one or more close-encounters within Jupiter's Hill radius (R_H) as they are forced out of the quasi-satellite resonance. As many as ~20% come within R_H/4 and ~2.5% come within R_H/10. Close-encounters of escaping quasi-satellites occur near or even below the 2-body escape velocity from the host planet.
Environmental and parental factors that shape children's territorial range

description: Children’s independent mobility (IM), their freedom to move about their neighbourhood without supervision by adults, has been in steady decline in recent decades. Previous research has linked perceptions of the environment with various measures of IM, but recently concerns have been raised regarding inconsistency in measuring IM. This study used various measures of IM and aimed to address how parental perceptions of the neighbourhood environment are associated with children’s territorial range – their actual spatial mobility – as well as how this relationship is mediated by IM parenting practices. Territorial range was derived from GPS, accelerometer, and activity diary data and IM parenting practices measured by license for independent mobility (LIM), roaming allowance, and parental boundaries. Path analysis was used to investigate the direct and indirect effects of these relationships. Some parental perceptions of the neighbourhood environment were significantly associated with IM parenting practices (LIM and roaming allowance). IM parenting practices were significantly associated with children’s territorial range. Direct effects of parental perceptions of the neighbourhood environment on children’s territorial range were variable, and only roaming allowance was found to mediate this relationship. Results indicate that IM parenting practices directly affect children’s territorial range to varying degrees. Parental perceptions of the neighbourhood environment have mixed effects on IM parenting practices and children’s territorial range. These findings suggest that future interventions to increase children’s IM should focus primarily on behavior change among parents since they are setting restrictions or allowances for children’s IM.

description: Chromospheric magnetic fields are notoriously diffcult to measure. The chromospheric lines are broad, while the fields are producing a minuscule Zeeman-effect polarization. A promising diagnostic alternative is provided by the forward-scattering Hanle effect, which can be recorded in chromospheric lines such as the He i 10830 Å and the Ca i 4227 Å lines. We present a set of spectropolarimetric observations of the full Stokes vector obtained near the center of the solar disk in the Ca i 4227 Å line with the ZIMPOL polarimeter at the IRSOL observatory.We detect a number of interesting forward-scattering Hanle effect signatures, which we model successfully using polarized radiative transfer. Here we focus on the observational aspects, while a separate companion paper deals with the theoretical modeling.

description: We present the first dynamical solution of the triple asteroid system (45) Eugenia and its two moons Petit-Prince (Diameter~7 km) and S/2004 (45) 1 (Diameter~5 km). The two moons orbit at 1165 and 610 km from the primary, describing an almost-circular orbit (e~6x10-3 and e~7x10-2 respectively). The system is quite different from the other known triple systems in the main belt since the inclinations of the moon orbits are sizeable (9 deg and 18 deg with respect to the equator of the primary respectively). No resonances, neither secular nor due to Lidov-Kozai mechanism, were detected in our dynamical solution, suggesting that these inclinations are not due to excitation modes between the primary and the moons. A 10-year evolution study shows that the orbits are slightly affected by perturbations from the Sun, and to a lesser extent by mutual interactions between the moons. The estimated J2 of the primary is three times lower than the theoretical one, calculated assuming the shape of the primary and an homogeneous interior, possibly suggesting the importance of other gravitational harmonics.

description: I've tried to stay in an organised routine during lockdown, just to give the day some structure. Its so easy to fall into a kind of aimless daydream, where days just pass you by and you get nothing done, and some organisation really helps to counter that. This has been easier since Trinity started, with various deadlines forcing me to get my act together.
I like to get up early, starting the day with a green tea, followed by some exercise, which makes me feel good and motivates me for the rest of my day. After a bit of meditation, I'll start some work. I'm lucky enough to have a nice quiet space to work. Its just me and my mum, who is also working from home, in the house.
Work hasn't been too bad; expanded online access to materials has been really helpful, and virtual tutorials are quite close to the real thing, although the interpersonal nature can't be fully recreated over webcam. Weak internet has caused some problems (I live in a very rural area) but it has not seriously disrupted my studies.
After a few hours I'll get something to eat before getting back to work, usually until dinner. I never work after dinner, in lockdown or in college, because I think its crucial to set aside some time to just relax. I've been honing my culinary skills (who hasn't) by baking with my mum, who is an absolute master-baker. It's a really fun way to spend time together and has been a highlight of lockdown. I've also been watching Netflix, playing video games, and continuing to learn a language.
Amongst this I also find time to mourn the Trinity we've lost. I was really looking forward to spending more time with my friends this term, and I was going to be involved in my first ever musical. It's a true tragedy for all of us, and we are all allowed to be upset.
Before bed I'll do some yoga (another new lockdown pursuit) and then do half an hour of reading, just to relax my mind. Then its bed and ready for tomorrow.

description: We present a method that implement directional, perfect state transfers within a branched spin network by exploiting quantum interferences in the time-domain. That provides a tool to isolate subsystems from a large and complex one. Directionality is achieved by interrupting the spin-spin coupled evolution with periods of free Zeeman evolutions, whose timing is tuned to be commensurate with the relative phases accrued by specific spin pairs. This leads to a resonant transfer between the chosen qubits, and to a detuning of all remaining pathways in the network, using only global manipulations. As the transfer is perfect when the selected pathway is mediated by 2 or 3 spins, distant state transfers over complex networks can be achieved by successive recouplings among specific pairs/triads of spins. These effects are illustrated with a quantum simulator involving 13C NMR on Leucine's backbone; a six-spin network.

The online battleground : the use of online platforms by extremist groups and hacktivists to form networks and collective identities
Creators: name: Bahia, Jasmeet
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2018

description: This thesis examines the use of social and virtual media by white supremacists, Islamic extremists and the hacktivist groups that surveil and dispute them. Social media platforms are commonly to use share opinions, have conversations and create followings of like-minded people. Extremist groups have adapted to new technologies to control their communications, allowing them to shape the way in which their messages are seen and understood by a global audience. Hacktivists use similar tactics and sites to gain traction for their movements against those they oppose. The research questions at the centre of this project explored the functionality of digital platforms that enable extremist groups and hackers to disseminate their ideologies en masse to a global audience, and how the use of metaphors of war aid in enticing individuals to engage. The platforms were chosen as they facilitated the tracing of communication and interactions between hackers and extremists with those who become participants on those sites. Data collection focused on textual and graphical uploads, tweets, and forum posts on these platforms, as well as the interfaces of the websites through which the groups choose to interact. The data was analyzed using actor network theory and critical theories of race. The results of this research showed that platforms make possible rapid and widespread dissemination of the beliefs of the hate groups, as well as the circulation of instructions on how to gain traction for their movements. Becoming a part of the networks created by these platforms allows new actors to modify their behaviours to emulate those they are interacting with. Users on the sites shape their identities based on the content they read, as well as the relationships they form with others in their networks. By understanding the way in which the groups use social media platforms to become accessible by their intended audience, it is possible to determine how followers shift from engaging to carrying out orders.

description: A measurement of beam-helicity asymmetries for single-hadron production in deep-inelastic scattering is presented. Data from the scattering of 27.6 GeV electrons and positrons off gaseous hydrogen and deuterium targets were collected by the HERMES experiment. The asymmetries are presented separately as a function of the Bjorken scaling variable, the hadron transverse momentum and the fractional energy for charged pions and kaons as well as for protons and anti-protons. These asymmetries are also presented as a function of the three aforementioned kinematic variables simultaneously.

We calculate useful limits on Wightman functions, analyze the dynamics of the detector in terms of vacuum fluctuations and radiation reactions, and discuss the thermalization process for the detector. We also present a generalization of the GEMS approach and obtain the Gibbons-Hawking temperature of de Sitter spacetime as an embedded Unruh temperature in a curved Anti-de Sitter spacetime.

Growth and persistence of the kelp Neoagarum fimbriatum in the face of intense grazer pressure
Creators: name: Borden, Laura
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2018

description: Kelp forests are one of the most productive ecosystems in the world, supporting a diverse assemblage of species. Throughout their history of study, kelp forests have undergone shifts between kelp forests and urchin barrens. Urchin barrens – rocky reefs which have no remaining kelp habitat due sea urchin grazing – have important consequences for species that rely on this habitat for survival. In Howe Sound, British Columbia Neoagarum fimbriatum is the dominant habitat-forming kelp and is the essential settlement habitat for commercially important juvenile spot prawns, Pandalus platyceros. Since 2013, the abundance of Neoagarum has declined following an increase in green urchins, Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis, due to loss of top-predator sea stars. This shift in the rocky reef community has led to concerns of continued decline in Neoagarum. This study looks at two aspects of Neoagarum persistence in the face of intense grazer pressure. First, seasonal growth patterns with respect to light and temperature variation are examined. Second, the impact of high densities of green urchins on Neoagarum loss are quantified. Seasonal growth patterns showed that Neoagarum grows throughout the year with maximal growth rates during summer, reaching up to 7% d-¹. Light was determined to be the main driver of these patterns. This was apparent particularly during spring plankton blooms when periods of minimal light at the depth of the kelp beds correlated with the lowest growth rates, while highest growth correlated with the longest days and highest light intensity. These growth rates suggest that in the absence of grazer pressure, Neoagarum has the capacity to develop dense kelp beds in a matter of months. Urchin grazing experiments showed that the relationship between urchin density and the rate of kelp biomass loss scaled linearly, but only at density below 36 urchins m-². Density-dependent restriction of green urchins was apparent at densities greater than 36 urchins m-². Despite lower per capita grazing rates at high densities it appears that so long as densities of green urchins densities remain high, their ability to consume greater than just 7% kelp biomass per day will lead to further declines in Neoagarum kelp beds.

description: Like the majority of spiral galaxies, NGC 6155 exhibits an exponential surface brightness profile that steepens significantly at large radii. Using the VIRUS-P IFU spectrograph, we have gathered spatially resolved spectra of the system. Modifying the GANDALF spectral fitting routine for use on the complex stellar populations found in spirals, we find that the average stellar ages increase significantly beyond the profile break radius. This result is in good agreement with recent simulations that predict the outskirts of disk galaxies are populated through stellar migration. With the ability to bin multiple fibers, we are able to measure stellar population ages down to mu_V~24 mag/sq arcsec.

description: This document presents progress in adopting or adapting existing data management policies to the PaNOSC data policy framework. This deliverable has been coordinated by CERIC-ERIC and ELI and prepared in collaboration with all the PaNOSC partners. In May 2020, the PaNOSC data policy framework was delivered to the European Commission as a deliverable of the PaNOSC project. It was published on zenodo (DOI 10.5281/zenodo.3826040) and is also accessible via the PaNOSC website. Now, after two years from the beginning of the project, ELI and CERIC are going to adopt the data policy and the other partners are adapting their existing policies to be compatible with the PaNOSC Data Policy framework. This document aims to provide a clear picture of the status of this process and what the next steps are for each partner in order to get the data policies endorsed by their management and operating in the real scientific data management workflow.
Trajectory averaging for stochastic approximation MCMC algorithms

Subjects: subject: Statistics Theory (math.ST)

description: The subject of stochastic approximation was founded by Robbins and Monro [Ann. Math. Statist. 22 (1951) 400--407]. After five decades of continual development, it has developed into an important area in systems control and optimization, and it has also served as a prototype for the development of adaptive algorithms for on-line estimation and control of stochastic systems. Recently, it has been used in statistics with Markov chain Monte Carlo for solving maximum likelihood estimation problems and for general simulation and optimizations. In this paper, we first show that the trajectory averaging estimator is asymptotically efficient for the stochastic approximation MCMC (SAMCMC) algorithm under mild conditions, and then apply this result to the stochastic approximation Monte Carlo algorithm [Liang, Liu and Carroll J. Amer. Statist. Assoc. 102 (2007) 305--320]. The application of the trajectory averaging estimator to other stochastic approximation MCMC algorithms, for example, a stochastic approximation MLE algorithm for missing data problems, is also considered in the paper.

Our variational wave functions are constructed from four- and five-body gaussoids which depend upon the six ($r_{12}, r_{13}, r_{14}, r_{23}, r_{24}, r_{34}$) and ten ($r_{12}, r_{13}, r_{14}, r_{15}, r_{23}, r_{24}, r_{25}, r_{34}, r_{35}$ and $r_{45}$) relative coordinates, respectively. The approach allows one to operate with the different number of electron spin functions. In particular, the trial wave functions for the ${}^1S$-states in four-electron atomic systems include the two independent spin functions $χ_1 = αβαβ+ βαβα- βααβ- αββα$ and $χ_2 = 2 ααββ+ 2 ββαα- βααβ- αββα- βαβα- αβαβ$. We also discuss the construction of variational wave functions for the excited $2^3S$-states in four-electron atomic systems.

description: Using the density functional theory (DFT) formulated within the framework of the plane-wave basis projector augmented wave (PAW) method, the temperature-dependent elastic properties of MgRE (RE=Y, Dy, Pr, Sc, Tb) intermetallics with B2-type structure are presented from first-principles. Our calculations are based on the fact that the elastic moduli as a function of temperature mainly results from thermal expansion. The comparison between the predicted results and the available experimental data for a benchmark material NiAl provides good agreements. At $T=0K$, our calculated values of lattice parameter and elastic moduli for MgRE intermetallics show excellent agreement with previous theoretical results and experimental data. While temperature increases, we find that the elastic constants decrease and approach linearity at higher temperature and zero slope around zero temperature.

description: Li and Haldane conjectured and numerically substantiated that the entanglement spectrum of the reduced density matrix of ground-states of time-reversal breaking topological phases (fractional quantum Hall states) contains information about the counting of their edge modes when the ground-state is cut in two spatially distinct regions and one of the regions is traced out. We analytically substantiate this conjecture for a series of FQH states defined as unique zero modes of pseudopotential Hamiltonians by finding a one to one map between the thermodynamic limit counting of two different entanglement spectra: the particle entanglement spectrum, whose counting of eigenvalues for each good quantum number is identical (up to accidental degeneracies) to the counting of bulk quasiholes, and the orbital entanglement spectrum (the Li-Haldane spectrum). As the particle entanglement spectrum is related to bulk quasihole physics and the orbital entanglement spectrum is related to edge physics, our map can be thought of as a mathematically sound microscopic description of bulk-edge correspondence in entanglement spectra. By using a set of clustering operators which have their origin in conformal field theory (CFT) operator expansions, we show that the counting of the orbital entanglement spectrum eigenvalues in the thermodynamic limit must be identical to the counting of quasiholes in the bulk. The latter equals the counting of edge modes at a hard-wall boundary placed on the sample. Moreover, we show this to be true even for CFT states which are likely bulk gapless, such as the Gaffnian wavefunction.

 Specimen examined. PERU. Cusco: Canchis, Marangani, Aguas calientes, route PE-3S, Km 1137, 4057 m, 14º27′01”S, 71º04′36”W, 22 Apr 2016, leaves of Puya sp., Lado 24625 (MA-Fungi 95895, USM).
 Notes. Similar to D. squamulosum and D. ilicinum Ing with calcareous stalks and peridium dehiscence as tiny flakes. However, the Peruvian specimen differs from both species by the spores ornamented with warts, connected to form short subreticulae, and the lack of a prominent columella but with an irregular pseudocolumella not described in the species.
 The morphology is the same as that observed in D. haretianun. Still, the determination of the Peruvian material is not certain since an irregular pseudocolumella was observed inside the sporotheca. This structure is not mentioned in the original description of the species. Having only one collection, we have not been able to determine if this character is stable or due to the effect of environmental conditions during maturation.

description: Drawing on a diverse body of literature from philosophy, design theory and other areas we have been developing a perspective on energy-as-materiality and employing a designerly approach of materializing energy [1]. Building on a framework for approaching energy as materiality, we discuss several design explorations around emotional attachment to energy and frame issues for future work related to energy, emotion and sustainable interaction design.

description: NMR spectra in superfluid A-like phases confined in axially deformed aerogel in presence of a magnetic field inclined with respect to deformation axis is considered. The characteristic features of dipole frequency shift in axially compressed and axially stretched cases are compared. In particular, it is shown that in axially stretched aerogel environment the stability region of coherently spin precessing mode is rather narrow due to the U(1)LIM effect.

V2368 Oph: An eclipsing and double-lined spectroscopic binary used as a photometric comparison star for U Oph

description: The A-type star HR 6412 = V2368 Oph was used by several investigators as a photometric comparison star for the known eclipsing binary U Oph but was found to be variable by three independent groups, including us. By analysing series of new spectral and photometric observations and a critical compilation of available radial velocities, we were able to find the correct period of light and radial-velocity variations and demonstrate that the object is an eclipsing and double-lined spectroscopic binary moving in a highly eccentric orbit. We derived a linear ephemeris T min.I = HJD (2454294.67 +/- 0.01) + (38.32712 +/- 0.00004)d x E and estimated preliminary basic physical properties of the binary. The dereddened UBV magnitudes and effective temperatures of the primary and secondary, based on our light- and velocity-curve solutions, led to distance estimates that agree with the Hipparcos distance within the errors. We find that the mass ratio must be close to one, but the limited number and wavelength range of our current spectra does not allow a truly precise determination of the binary masses. Nevertheless, our results show convincingly that both binary components are evolved away from the main sequence, which makes this system astrophysically very important. There are only a few similarly evolved A-type stars among known eclipsing binaries. Future systematic observations and careful analyses can provide very stringent tests for the stellar evolutionary theory.

description: We conclude that arguments of Norman et al. in their Comment do not provide a significant basis for their claim that the geometric mechanism for explaining the observations reported by them is not viable. More generally, our study highlights the importance of assessing structural issues before invoking exotic mechanisms for explaining unusual spectroscopic observations, especially in complex materia.

description: Auf der Grundlage des fachspezifischen Inklusionsdiskurses zeigt die vorliegende Arbeit kritisch die Grenzen vorliegender Planungsmodelle für einen diversitätssensiblen Sportunterricht auf. Die Argumentation des Verfassers legt den Fokus auf die besonderen Ansprüche des Förderschwerpunktes der "körperlichen und motorischen Entwicklung". Dabei stellt er Chancen und Herausforderungen eines inklusiven Sportunterrichts für diese Gruppe realitätsnah, also weder idealisierend noch resignativ dar. Weiterhin diskutiert der Verfasser anhand eines eingeführten Planungsmodells die notwendigen antizipativen Überlegungen für die Vorbereitung eines adaptiven Sportunterrichts. Die notwendigen Planungsüberlegungen werden schließlich am Beispiel des Bewegungsfeldes „laufen, springen, werfen“ konkretisiert, das eigentlich eher leistungs- und wettkampforientiert konnotiert ist. Der Verfasser kann aber sehr schön zeigen, dass sich durch einfache inhaltliche oder organisatorische Veränderungen auch andere Perspektiven für Schüler*innen mit Beeinträchtigungen akzentuieren lassen.

Theoretical Analysis of Drag Resistance in Amorphous Thin Films Exhibiting Superconductor-Insulator-Transition

description: The magnetical field tuned superconductor-insulator transition in amorphous thin films, e.g., Ta and InO, exhibits a range of yet unexplained curious phenomena, such as a putative low-resistance metallic phase intervening the superconducting and the insulating phase, and a huge peak in the magnetoresistance at large magnetic field. Qualitatively, the phenomena can be explained equally well within several significantly different pictures, particularly the condensation of quantum vortex liquid, and the percolation of superconducting islands embedded in normal region. Recently, we proposed and analyzed a new measurement that should be able to decisively point to the correct picture: a drag resistance measurement in an amorphous thin-film bilayer setup. Neglecting interlayer tunneling, we found that the drag resistance within the vortex paradigm has opposite sign and is orders of magnitude larger than that in competing paradigms. For example, two identical films as in Sambandamurthy et al. 2004 with 25 nm layer separation at 0.07 K would produce a drag resistance $\sim10^{-4}Ω$ according the vortex theory, but only $\sim10^{-12}Ω$ for the percolation theory. We provide details of our theoretical analysis of the drag resistance within both paradigms, and report some new results as well.

description: Despite various benefits of walking, some people still lack the motivation. In this paper, we present musicWALK - an interactive musical application that aims at enhancing the walking experience. musicWALK generates music by collecting data relevant to personal walking pattern and to the surrounding environment. By allowing people to listen to interactive music generated along their walks, we aid them to establish a stronger connection with their surroundings. We hope that this will provide a stronger motivation for walking.
