description: Odour release from sewer systems is an established environmental issue affecting many cities worldwide. A key indicator for the severity of the odour problem in sewer systems is linked to the amount of sulphide produced and released as hydrogen sulphide (H2S) into the urban environment. For this reason, an in-depth understanding of the biochemical processes of sulphurous compounds in sewer systems is an underlying base point for designing and implementing odour control strategies for sewer systems. This contribution focuses on a field study on the monitoring and assessing chemical dosing on a 9.0 km pressure sewer in Ueckermünde, Germany. Online H2S measurements indicated a daily reoccurrence of sulphide spikes between 4:00 and 8:00 am during the monitoring period. During this period, the wastewater slugs exiting the sewer section remained in the dosed section of the pipe the longest, and regeneration of sulphide production began after 3 hours, causing the hydrogen sulphide spikes. The proposed dosing strategy provides a cost-effective and efficient solution for sulphide build-up in long pressure sewers that connect rural areas to centralised wastewater collection and treatment systems.

Religious Sectarianism and Secular Nationalism in the Syrian Civil War
Creators: name: Parks, Madison
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: The political and social aspirations of a democratic Syria have been largely suppressed under Bashar al-Assad’s
regime. The regime’s brutal crackdown of protests and opposition during the Arab Spring launched the nation into
crisis. This paper examines the transformation of national and religious identities in Syria during more than a decade
of civil war. I will draw on two key historical shifts to contextualize this transformation: first, the rise of Bashar al-Assad
to the presidency following the death of his father Hafez al-Assad, and second, the events that followed the Arab
Spring protests in 2011. This paper also analyzes the role of the Syrian Ba’ath Party in, on the one hand, perpetuating
the legitimacy of the Assad family, and on the other, constructing national unity through a secular model of Arab nationalism.
While the conflict in Syria is often framed as sectarian, this paper shows why and how a secularist project of
nation-making ends up fueling religious divisions. Bashar al-Assad marked a decisive break with the cross-sectarian
coalition that had formerly held the fledgling nation together. To concentrate power in his favor and oppress the opposition,
Assad abandoned secular nationalism and turned to religious nationalism. This brutal crackdown launched a
nation once unified under a single national identity into a violent sectarian conflict through the intentional weaponization
of religious, ethnic, and class differences.

description: We investigate the time evolution of optical conductivity in the half-filled one-dimensional extended Hubbard model driven by a transient laser pulse, by using the time-dependent Lanczos method. Photoinduced in-gap excitations exhibit a qualitatively different structure in the spin-density wave (SDW) in comparison to the charge-density-wave (CDW) phase. In the SDW, the origin of a low-energy in-gap excitation is attributed to the even-odd parity of the photoexcited states, while in the CDW an in-gap state is due to confined photogenerated carriers. The signature of the in-gap excitations can be identified as a characteristic oscillation in the time evolution of physical quantities.

Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: In the first part of the paper, we discuss different versions of the AdS/CFT dictionary out of equilibrium. We show that the Skenderis - van Rees prescription and the "extrapolate" dictionary are equivalent at the level of "in-in" two point functions of free scalar fields in arbitrary asymptotically AdS spacetimes. In the second part of the paper, we calculate two point correlation functions in dynamical spacetimes using the "extrapolate" dictionary. These calculations are performed for conformally coupled scalar fields in examples of spacetimes undergoing gravitational collapse, the AdS$_2$-Vaidya spacetime and the AdS$_3$-Vaidya spacetime, which allow us to address the problem of thermalization following a quench in the boundary field theory. The computation of the correlators is formulated as an initial value problem in the bulk spacetime. Finally, we compare our results for AdS$_3$-Vaidya to results in the previous literature obtained using the geodesic approximation and we find qualitative agreement.

Fighting Political Corruption in Peru
Creators: name: Kennedy, Scarlett
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: Despite Peru’s troubled history
of authoritarian regimes
and military juntas, today it is in
many ways a great example of Latin
American success. Between the
years 2002 and 2012, it had an impressive
GDP growth of 6.5 percent
each year, and poverty was reduced
by half.1 Despite its economic success,
its presidents have had remarkably
low approval ratings. This can
be explained by its persisting problem
with political corruption, which
has proven to be a formidable foe
to democracy, deeply steeped in
Peruvian government and politics.
Efforts to fight corruption have
yielded little success but have acted
as learning opportunities for what
works and what doesn’t for a successful
strategy to be created. This
strategy could involve concentrating
energy and resources on battling
corruption at the local level, especially
through partnering with Peruvian
organizations.

description: We study a holographic gauge theory living in the AdS$_4$ space-time at finite temperature. The gravity dual is obtained as a solution of the type IIB superstring theory with two free parameters, which correspond to four dimensional (4D) cosmological constant ($λ$) and the dark radiation ($C$) respectively. The theory studied here is in confining and chiral symmetry broken phase for $λ<0$ and small $C$. When $C$ is increased, the transition to the deconfinement phase has been observed at a finite value of $C/|λ|$. It is shown here that the chiral symmetry is still broken for a finite range of $C/|λ|$ in the deconfinement phase. In other words, the chiral phase transition occurs at a larger value of $C/|λ|$ than the one of the deconfinement transition. So there is a parameter range of a new deconfinement phase with broken chiral symmetry. In order to study the properties of this phase, we performed a holographic analysis for the meson mass-spectrum and other quantities in terms of the probe D7 brane. The results of this analysis are compared with a linear sigma model. Furthermore, the entanglement entropy is examined to search for a sign of the chiral phase trantion. Several comments are given for these analyses.

Defect physics, delithiation mechanism, and electronic and ionic conduction in layered lithium manganese oxide cathode materials
Creators: name: Hoang, Khang
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Layered LiMnO$_2$ and Li$_2$MnO$_3$ are of great interest for lithium-ion battery cathodes because of their high theoretical capacities. The practical application of these materials is, however, limited due to poor electrochemical performance. We herein report a comprehensive first-principles study of defect physics in LiMnO$_2$ and Li$_2$MnO$_3$ using hybrid-density functional calculations. We find that manganese antisites have low formation energies in LiMnO$_2$ and may act as nucleation sites for the formation of impurity phases. The antisites can also occur with high concentrations in Li$_2$MnO$_3$; however, unlike in LiMnO$_2$, they can be eliminated by tuning the experimental conditions during preparation. Other intrinsic point defects may also occur and have an impact on the materials' properties and functioning. An analysis of the formation of lithium vacancies indicates that lithium extraction from LiMnO$_2$ is associated with oxidation at the manganese site, resulting in the formation of manganese small hole polarons; whereas in Li$_2$MnO$_3$ the intrinsic delithiation mechanism involves oxidation at the oxygen site, leading to the formation of bound oxygen hole polarons $η_{\rm O}^{+}$. The layered oxides are found to have no or negligible bandlike carriers and they cannot be doped n- or p-type. The electronic conduction proceeds through hopping of hole and/or electron polarons; the ionic conduction occurs through lithium monovacancy and/or divacancy migration mechanisms. Since $η_{\rm O}^{+}$ is not stable in the absence of negatively charged lithium vacancies in bulk Li$_2$MnO$_3$, the electronic conduction near the start of delithiation is likely to be poor. We suggest that the electronic conduction associated with $η_{\rm O}^{+}$ and, hence, the electrochemical performance of Li$_2$MnO$_3$ can be improved through nanostructuring and/or ion substitution.

description: The Bloch theorem enables reduction of the eigenvalue problem of the single-particle Hamiltonian that commutes with translational group. Based on a group theory analysis we present generalization of the Bloch theorem that incorporates all additional symmetries of a crystal. The generalized Bloch theorem constrains the form of the Hamiltonian which becomes manifestly invariant under additional symmetries. In the case of isotropic interactions the generalized Bloch theorem gives a unique Hamiltonian. This Hamiltonian coincides with the Hamiltonian in the periodic gauge. In the case of anisotropic interactions the generalized Bloch theorem allows a family of Hamiltonians. Due to the continuity argument we expect that even in this case the Hamiltonian in the periodic gauge defines observables, such as Berry curvature, in the inverse space. For both cases we present examples and demonstrate that the average of the Berry curvatures of all possible Hamiltonians in the Bloch gauge is the Berry curvature in the periodic gauge.

description: Political parties have continually
shifted throughout
history in response to
current events and prevalent political
attitudes. The main focal points
of modern-day European political
parties are issues like immigration,
populism, and the controversial European
Union. Two parties, France’s
La Republique En Marche, and Poland’s
Law and Justice Party, have
taken very different paths to prominence
in their respective countries.
Lucjusz Nadbernezny, the mayor of
Stalow Walow and a member of Law
and Justice, has funded the travel
of far-right protesters carrying
signs exclaiming “pure blood, clear
mind” and “Europe will be white
or uninhabited.” La Republique
En Marche, founded by Emmanuel
Macron, created one of the biggest
voter mobilization efforts in modern
history, with thousands of volunteers
interviewing tens of thousands
of French voters on a variety of issues in one of the most fervent
efforts at voter connectivity that the
world has ever seen. The two parties
take very different approaches at
appealing to voters, cultural issues,
and economic issues.
Chiral magnetic effect in two-band lattice model of Weyl semimetal

description: Employing a two-band model of Weyl semimetal, the existence of the chiral magnetic effect (CME) is established within the linear-response theory. The crucial role played by the limiting procedure in deriving correct transport properties is clarified. Besides, in contrast to the prediction based on linearized effective models, the value of the CME coefficient in the uniform limit shows nontrivial dependence on various model parameters. Even when these parameters are away from the region of the linearized models, such that the concept of chirality may not be appropriate, this effect still exists. This implies that the Berry curvature, rather than the chiral anomaly, provides a better understanding of this effect.

We’re Gonna Need A Bigger Budget?
Creators: name: Kloempken, Will
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2022

description: Living in the United States,
it certainly feels like the
military and military-adjacent
issues receive much attention
by both the media and everyday
people. There are a variety of opinions
on the military, ranging from
condemnation of the state of veteran
services to what role the military
should play in foreign affairs. Especially
with rising inflation and skyrocketing
debt, the military budget
is often at the center of the conversation.
President Eisenhower foretold
the future when he warned about
the burgeoning military-industrial
complex. The fiscal year 2021 saw
more than $700 billion allocated
to the Department of Defense; the
proposed FY 2023 budget would
allocate a whopping $773 billion
(in part due to inflation). Abiding
by the traditional budget division,
$230 billion of that sum would be
dedicated to the Navy and Marine
Corps. In terms of Gross Domestic
Product (GDP), a metric often
used to put spending in perspective,
military spending has remained
at around 3.5% since 2014–almost
a whole percentage point of that spent just on the Department of the
Navy. The world average in 2020, in
contrast, was 2.0% of GDP spent on
militaries. This has understandably
led to questions of form and function
regarding budgetary parameters
of the U.S. military, especially
in comparison to other discretionary
spending programs. This paper
will dig deeper into the arguments
surrounding naval spending. Specifically,
what can be done and what
ought to be done as equipment begins
to age and population growth
slows? The hundred-billion-dollar
question is: how much should be
spent on the Navy?
Biological Populations, Cooperation Mechanisms and Distributive Justice

Subjects: Cooperation; indirect reciprocity; spatial selection; distributive justice

description: Cooperation is a pillar not only of human societies but also of evolution. The most important cooperation mechanisms, which are not based on kinship, are indirect reciprocity and spatial selection. They influence the distribution of genes among a population but could also play a role in developmental biology by distributing inductive factors within the initial cell population. The paper examines the relationship between cooperative mechanisms deployed by biological organisms and the principles and theory of distributive justice, which is the legal foundation of cooperation.

description: Nonlinear optomechanical coupling is the basis for many potential future experiments in quantum optomechanics (e.g., quantum non-demolition measurements, preparation of non-classical states), which to date have been difficult to realize due to small non-linearity in typical optomechanical devices. Here we introduce an optomechanical system combining strong nonlinear optomechanical coupling, low mass and large optical mode spacing. This nanoscale "paddle nanocavity" supports mechanical resonances with hundreds of fg mass which couple nonlinearly to optical modes with a quadratic optomechanical coupling coefficient $g^{(2)} > 2π\times400$ MHz/nm$^2$, and a two phonon to single photon optomechanical coupling rate $Δω_0 > 2π\times 16$ Hz. This coupling relies on strong phonon-photon interactions in a structure whose optical mode spectrum is highly non--degenerate. Nonlinear optomechanical readout of thermally driven motion in these devices should be observable for T $> 50 $ mK, and measurement of phonon shot noise is achievable. This shows that strong nonlinear effects can be realized without relying on coupling between nearly degenerate optical modes, thus avoiding parasitic linear coupling present in two mode systems.

The Power of the Press: State Capture of the Media in Poland and Hungary Since 2010
Creators: name: Mundy, Jordan
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2023

description: Freedom of the press is
essential to a vibrant,
liberal democracy. In
Hungary and Poland, where democratic
backsliding is prevalent,
government power over the media
is one of the many reasons these
countries are “illiberal” democracies.
Since 2010, these governments
have increasingly controlled the
press. The governments of Poland
and Hungary both engage in media
capture by selectively distributing
state advertising and packing
media boards, although Hungary
implemented stricter government
controls on media during the Coronavirus
pandemic than Poland. The
Hungarian government leverages its
control over private media while the
Polish government focuses on consolidating
state media. Both these
methods hinder freedom of the
press, and state capture of the media
in these nations has grave implications for the fate of their democracies.

description: Sorghum is the second most important grain cereal after maize in sub-Saharan Africa. The rate of accelerating of climate change and variability conjoined with increased global population threaten world food security. Changes in precipitation patterns further exacerbates crop failure and production declines. Small grain crops have been shown to thrive well under unfavorable conditions and these should be adopted especially in areas facing challenges due to climate change. Accordingly, sorghum has the potential to play an important role in meeting the world’s food demand in the face of climate change, land degradation and increasing water scarcity (Mofokeng et al., 2017). Sorghum has a wide genetic diversity which makes it possible to produce a wide range of diverse products and thus strengthen the crop’s value chain.

This technical note was developed as part of the project “Exploring wide crosses derived crop biodiversity (sorghum x maize) for climate resilience and food and nutrition security in Eastern and Southern Africa” funded in the 4th cycle of the Benefit Sharing Fund (BSF) of the International Treaty of Plant Genetic Resources for Food and Agriculture (ITPGRFA) of the Food and Agriculture Organisation (FAO) of the United Nations (UN).

description: Using first-principles calculations, we investigate the positional dependence of trace elements such as O and Cu on the crystal field parameter $A_2^0$, proportional to the anisotropy constant $K_u$ of Nd ions placed at the surface of Nd$_2$Fe$_{14}$B grains. The results suggest the possibility that the $A_2^0$ parameter of Nd ions at the (001) surface of Nd$_2$Fe$_{14}$B grains exhibits a negative value when the O or Cu atom is located near the surface, closer than its equilibrium position. At the (110) surface, however, O atoms located at the equilibrium position provide a negative $A_2^0$, while for Cu additions $A_2^0$ remains positive regardless of Cu's position. Thus, Cu atoms are expected to maintain a positive local $K_u$ of surface Nd ions more frequently than O atoms when they approach the grain surfaces in the Nd-Fe-B grains.

description: We investigate the double spin asymmetries of pion production in semi-inclusive deep inelastic scattering with a longitudinal polarized beam off a transversely polarized proton target. Particularly, we consider the $\cosϕ_S$ and $\cos(2ϕ_h -ϕ_S)$ modulations, which can be interpreted by the convolution of the twist-3 transverse momentum dependent distributions and twist-2 fragmentation functions. Three different origins are taken into account simultaneously for each asymmetry: the $g_T D_1$ term, the $e_T H_1^\perp$ term, and the $e_T^\perp H_1^\perp$ term in the $\cosϕ_S$ asymmetry; and the $g_T^\perp D_1$ term, the $e_T H_1^\perp$ term, and the $e_T^\perp H_1^\perp$ term in the $\cos(2ϕ_h -ϕ_S)$ asymmetry. We calculate the four twist-3 distributions $g_T(x,\boldsymbol{k}_T^2)$, $g_T^\perp(x,\boldsymbol{k}_T^2)$, $e_T(x,\boldsymbol{k}_T^2)$, and $e_T^\perp(x,\boldsymbol{k}_T^2)$ in a spectator-diquark model including vector diquarks. Then we predict the two corresponding asymmetries for charged and neutral pions at the kinematics of HERMES, JLab, and COMPASS for the first time. The numerical estimates indicate that the two different angular-dependence asymmetries are sizable by several percent at HERMES and JLab, and the $\cosϕ_S$ asymmetry has a strong dependence on the Bjorken $x$. Our predictions also show that the dominant contribution to the $\cosϕ_S$ asymmetry comes from the $g_T D_1$ term, while the $g_T^\perp D_1$ term gives the main contribution to the $\cos(2ϕ_h -ϕ_S)$ asymmetry; the other two $T$-odd terms almost give negligible contributions. In particular, the $\cos(2ϕ_h -ϕ_S)$ asymmetry provides a unique opportunity to probe the distribution $g_T^\perp$.

CALLISTO

description: Japan and Europe are now getting ready for the maiden flight of their new workhorse launch vehicles: H3 and Ariane 6. Nevertheless, continued improvements, especially in term of costs, are necessary to continue to offer an affordable access to space. To prepare this next step, JAXA, CNES, and DLR have developed the CALLISTO system as a joint project [1]. The system includes a subscale, Vertical Take-off Vertical Landing (VTVL), reusable vehicle and its Ground Segment supporting the flight and ground operations of the vehicle. CALLISTO stands for Cooperative Action Leading to Launcher Innovation for Stage Toss-back Operations. The program involves so three countries and their space organizations: CNES for France, DLR for Germany and JAXA for Japan. The first tests in flight will be conducted in 2024 from the CSG, Europe\'s Spaceport for commercial launches. The challenge is to develop, all along the project, the skills of the partners. This know-how includes Products and Vehicle design, Ground Segment set up, and post-flight operations for Vehicle recovery then reuse. This paper presents an overview of the status of the CALLISTO project, of both the vehicle and the ground segment. General development status is described, and the maturity status of key technologies is addressed in separate papers. Key technologies address many domains, like guidance and control software - for which two versions are in development, one by CNES, the other jointly by JAXA and DLR -, landing system, aerodynamic control system and navigation system developed by DLR, reusable engine with throttle capability developed by JAXA, propellant management in flight, optimisation of Maintenance Repair Operations in between flights, use of services of an operational space port with associated constraints, landing zone definition, first operations after landing to ensure continuous safely Vehicle System and most products passed their Preliminary Design Reviews and are now entering phase C. Key technologies are concerned but also more standard products like propellant tanks, avionic, nose fairing, flight termination system, flight software. For avionics, approach with COTS is privileged, and validation will be start soon at the CALLISTO Avionic Validation Facility hosted in France. After first civil works at Diamant site in CSG to clean the area and upgrade networks (energy, telecom but also nitrogen gas), the ground segment passed design milestones and the configuration is now frozen and contracts for proximity means like fluid process, mechanical ground support equipment and control bench are starting. A robotic solution is developed to reconnect fluid and electric services to the vehicle after landing, to avoid any human risk. Next step will be the Critical Design Review planned end of 2022.
Two Perspectives on Civilian Nuclear Energy in the United States
Creators: name: Bresnicky, Sophie

description: Nuclear power as a
civilian energy tool
has been a thoroughly
debated subject for decades,
as nations across the globe
seek to expand their nuclear energy
sectors and develop a strong
presence in this emerging market.
Those in favor of nuclear energy
point out how it is able to provide
large-scale, reliable electricity that
emits no carbon dioxide, making
it an appealing option for nations
looking for sustainable energy. On
the other hand, skepticism of the
implications of expanding nuclear
energy and fear of its potential use
as a military weapon have steered
many away from supporting its usage. While the United States initially
led the development of nuclear
technology in the twentieth century,
public safety concerns coupled with
strict regulations have resulted in the decline in the United States’ nuclear
industry in recent decades, thereby
reducing the nation to a minor competitor
in the market. Nevertheless,
many nations are implementing nuclear
technology as both a sustainable
solution and a strategic foreign
policy tool, making a discussion on
the subject immensely relevant.

description: Due to the need for a thorough understanding of the water use patterns exhibited by sand-binding vegetation in the restoration of degraded arid regions, this study focuses on the water use patterns of co-existing sand-binding vegetation in two typical soil habitats of the desert steppe. The main focus is on the species combinations of sand-binding vegetation in the habitats of sierozem (Populus przewalskii Maxim, namely Populus-S and Caragana liouana) and aeolian sandy soil (Populus przewalskii Maxim, namely Populus-S and Salix psammophila). The water use characteristics of the sand-binding vegetation are quantitatively assessed by analyzing the δ2H and δ18O isotopes in the xylem, soil moisture, groundwater, and precipitation.

description: Interesting phases of quantum matter often arise when the constituent particles -- electrons in solids -- interact strongly. Such strongly interacting systems are however quite rare and occur only in extreme environments of low spatial dimension, low temperatures or intense magnetic fields. Here we introduce a new system in which the fundamental electrons interact only weakly but the low energy effective theory is described by strongly interacting Majorana fermions. The system consists of an Abrikosov vortex lattice in the surface of a strong topological insulator and is accessible experimentally using presently available technology. The simplest interactions between the Majorana degrees of freedom exhibit an unusual nonlocal structure that involves four distinct Majorana sites. We formulate simple lattice models with this type of interaction and find exact solutions in certain physically relevant one- and two-dimensional geometries. In other cases we show how our construction allows for the experimental realization of interesting spin models previously only theoretically contemplated.

The Strength of Democracy in Argentina and Where it Stands Today
Creators: name: Wallihan, Jake
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2023

description: The topic of this paper
is the democratic transition
of Argentina
from authoritarianism to democracy
in the 1990s. I will be using Latin
America scholar Kenneth Roberts’
framework on Latin American dual
transitions outlined in the book,
Parties, Movements, and Democracy
in the Developing World1. Specifically,
I will argue that of Roberts’
three types of democratic transitions—
Institutionalized Pluralism
(IP), Hegemonic Popular Sovereignty
(HPS), and Oligarchic Restoration
(OR)—Argentina’s transition
throughout the 1990s and early
2000s best falls into the category of
Hegemonic Popular Sovereignty.
I will organize my argument into
three sections: contestation and participation,
presence of a left-right
axis, and careening. Then, I will shift
focus to modern-day Argentina and
argue that HPS no longer applies to the country, analyzing the country
under the same three dimensions.
