description: We perform a canonical analysis of the bimetric theory in the metric formulation, computing the constraints and their algebra explicitly. In particular, we compute a secondary constraint, that has been argued to exist earlier, and show that it has the correct form to eliminate the ghost. We also identify a set of four first class constraints that generate the algebra of general covariance. The covariance algebra naturally determines a spacetime metric for the theory. However, in bimetric theory, this metric is not unique but depends on how the first class constraints are identified.

The development of a reflective portfolio of comprehensive, holistic, patient care as a means of assessing dental undergraduate competence

Publisher: name: Royal College of Surgeons in Ireland
Year: 2019
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: In a Dental University Hospital the assessment of clinical competence for senior students (4th and 5th year students) prior to this change initiative, was achieved by requiring the students to attain numerical targets for specific clinical procedures. These multiple clinical procedures could be carried out on any number of different patients and the focus of attention was on the procedure and not the patient. Under this system there is no incentive for a student to complete a patient’s treatment once the required numerical target is reached. There is also no reward, or progress toward establishing competence, for a student in treating a patient if that patient does not require any of the specific procedures outlined by the numerical targets. This project in educational leadership traces the change to a paradigm of comprehensive patient care, without numerical targets, for the establishment of dental undergraduate competence. The evidence based support for this patient centred approach will be established and the change process and evaluation outlined as it was carried out. Under the changed system of competence assessment students will build a reflective portfolio of varied completed patient cases as a means of establishing undergraduate clinical competence in dental science. Having first established that the current literature supports this more patient centred comprehensive care model of assessment, this dissertation will continue on to describe how the Health Service Executive model of change management was used to guide and manage the change process. The rational for this change is to foster and develop a more professional student approach to proving clinical competence where the process demands that provision of comprehensive, holistic care and completion of patient treatment are core values of the process, not numerical targets. The use of the HSE change model to initiate, plan, mainstream and implement the new assessment system is crucial to the success of the change strategy. The ultimate value and achievement of the change will be measured, principally, by focus group interview with a group of five students who are piloting the new system in the current academic year. Feedback from clinical teachers on the pilot group students will also form part of the evaluation. These teachers will not be aware of the participation of these students in the pilot. The results of the evaluation have now been used for evidence in the full implementation of the change for future dental undergraduates.

description: Spin-orbit interactions are subwavelength phenomena which can potentially lead to numerous device related applications in nanophotonics. Here, we report Spin-Hall effect in the forward scattering of Hermite-Gaussian and Gaussian beams from a plasmonic nanowire. Asymmetric scattered radiation distribution was observed for circularly polarized beams. Asymmetry in the scattered radiation distribution changes the sign when the polarization handedness inverts. We found a significant enhancement in the Spin-Hall effect for Hermite-Gaussian beam as compared to Gaussian beam for constant input power. The difference between scattered powers perpendicular to the long axis of the plasmonic nanowire was used to quantify the enhancement. In addition to it, nodal line of HG beam acts as the marker for the Spin-Hall shift. Numerical calculations corroborate experimental observations and suggest that the Spin flow component of Poynting vector associated with the circular polarization is responsible for the Spin-Hall effect and its enhancement.

description: A possible sound origin for the photospheric oscillations in the X--ray bursting sources 1608-522 and 2127+119 is suggested. It is shown that standing sound waves in an expanding spherical envelope can have periods very close to the observed ones. The quite large ratio, $\sim$ 10, of the periods in the two sources is explained in terms of different wave regimes. The relevance of sound oscillations to the observed QPO in type II bursts of the Rapid Burster is also discussed.

description: We show that there is a large discrepancy between the expected light flavor dependence of the heavy pseudoscalar--vector mass splittings and the measured values. We demonstrate that the one--loop calculation is unreliable. Moreover, agreement with experiment requires the leading dependence on SU(3) symmetry breaking to be nearly cancelled, so that the heavy quark mass dependence is unknown and the expected dependence on the light quark mass is not realized.

Based on theoretical calculations at next-to-leading order and approximate next-to-next-to-leading order of perturbative QCD, we establish the kinematic reaches for three different EIC designs, the size of the parton density function modifications for four different light and heavy nuclei from He-4 over C-12 and Fe-56 to Pb-208 with respect to the free proton, and the improvement of EIC measurements with respect to current determinations from deep-inelastic scattering and Drell-Yan data alone and when also considering data from existing hadron colliders.

description: The transport properties of exciton-polaritons are studied with allowance for their polarization. Both classical multiple scattering effects and quantum effects such as weak localization are taken into account in the framework of a generalized kinetic equation. The longitudinal-transverse (TE-TM) splitting of polariton states which plays role analogous to the spin-orbit splitting in electron systems is taken into account. The developed formalism is applied to calculate the particle and spin diffusion coefficients of exciton-polaritons, spin relaxation rates and the polarization conversion efficiency under the conditions of the optical spin Hall effect. In contrast to the electron systems, strong spin splitting does not lead to the antilocalization behavior of the particle diffusion coefficient, while quantum corrections to spin diffusion and polarization conversion can be both negative and positive depending on the spin splitting value.

description: We derive the uncertainty relation for a quantum open system comprised of a Brownian particle interacting with a bath of quantum oscillators at finite temperature. We examine how the quantum and thermal fluctuations of the environment contribute to the uncertainty in the canonical variables of the system. We show that upon contact with the bath (assumed ohmic in this paper) the system evolves from a quantum-dominated state to a thermal-dominated state in a time which is the same as the decoherence time in similar models in the discussion of quantum to classical transition. This offers some insight into the physical mechanisms involved in the environment-induced decoherence process. We obtain closed analytic expressions for this generalized uncertainty relation under the conditions of high temperature and weak damping separately. We also consider under these conditions an arbitrarily-squeezed initial state and show how the squeeze parameter enters in the generalized uncertainty relation. Using these results we examine the transition of the system from a quantum pure state to a nonequilibrium quantum statistical state and to an equilibrium quantum statistical state. The three stages are marked by the decoherence time and the relaxation time respectively. With these observations we explicate the physical conditions when the two basic postulates of quantum statistical mechanics become valid. We also comment on the inappropriateness in the usage of the word classicality in many decoherence studies of quantum to classical transition.

description: In his Comment, Krakoviack [Phys. Rev. B (2007)] finds that the phase behavior of the s+p spin-glass model is different from what proposed by Crisanti and Leuzzi [Phys. Rev. B 73, 014412 (2006)] if s and p are larger than two and are separated well enough. He proposes a trial picture, based on a one step replica symmetry breaking solution, displaying a mode-coupling-like glass-to-glass transition line ending in a A3 singularity. However, actually, the physics of these systems changes when p-s is large, the instability of which the one step replica symmetry breaking glassy phase suffers turns out to be so wide ranging that the whole scenario proposed by Krakoviack must be seriously reconsidered.

description: Rear-end collision warning system has a great role to enhance the driving safety. In this system some measures are used to estimate the dangers and the system warns drivers to be more cautious. The real-time processes should be executed in such system, to remain enough time and distance to avoid collision with the front vehicle. To this end, in this paper a new system is developed by using random forest classifier. To evaluate the performance of the proposed system, vehicles trajectory data of 100 car's database from Virginia tech transportation institute are used and the methods are compared based on their accuracy and their processing time. By using TOPSIS multi-criteria selection method, we show that the results of the implemented classifier is better than the results of different classifiers including Bayesian network, naive Bayes, MLP neural network, support vector machine, nearest neighbor, rule-based methods and decision tree. The presented experiments reveals that the random forest is an acceptable algorithm for the proposed driver assistant system with 88.4% accuracy for detecting warning situations and 94.7% for detecting safe situations.

description: The recent discovery that faint gamma-ray bursts are stretched in time relative to bright ones has been interpreted as support for cosmological distances: faint bursts have their durations redshifted relative to bright ones. It was pointed out, however, that the relative time stretching can also be produced by an intrinsic correlation between duration and luminosity of gamma-ray bursts in a nearby, bounded distribution. While both models can explain the average amount of time stretching, we find a generic difference between them in the way the duration distribution of faint bursts deviates from that of bright ones. This allows us to distinguish between these two broad classes of model on the basis of the duration distributions of gamma-ray bursts, leading perhaps to an unambiguous determination of the distance scale of gamma-ray bursts. We apply our proposed test to the second BATSE catalog and conclude, with some caution, that the data favor a cosmological interpretation of the time dilation.

description: Direct-gap materials hold promises for excitonic insulator. In contrast to indirect-gap materials, here the difficulty to distinguish from a Peierls charge density wave is circumvented. However, direct-gap materials still suffer from the divergence of polarizability when the band gap approaches zero, leading to diminishing exciton binding energy. We propose that one can decouple the exciton binding energy from the band gap in materials where band-edge states have the same parity. First-principles calculations of two-dimensional GaAs and experimentally mechanically exfoliated single-layer TiS 3 lend solid supports to the new principle.

description: In this work, we investigate Batch Normalization technique and propose its probabilistic interpretation. We propose a probabilistic model and show that Batch Normalization maximazes the lower bound of its marginalized log-likelihood. Then, according to the new probabilistic model, we design an algorithm which acts consistently during train and test. However, inference becomes computationally inefficient. To reduce memory and computational cost, we propose Stochastic Batch Normalization -- an efficient approximation of proper inference procedure. This method provides us with a scalable uncertainty estimation technique. We demonstrate the performance of Stochastic Batch Normalization on popular architectures (including deep convolutional architectures: VGG-like and ResNets) for MNIST and CIFAR-10 datasets.

description: We argue that consistency of the combined heavy quark and chiral effective lagrangian requires the QCD scale which multiplies $1/M$ in the heavy quark expansion to be the chiral symmetry breaking scale, $Λ_{CSB}$, rather than the QCD scale, $Λ_{QCD}$. This means that either there is large uncertainty in the accuracy with which the heavy quark effective theory can be applied to $c$ quarks or the cutoff scale of the heavy quark chiral effective theory is lower than has been assumed.

A Projected Entropy Controller for Transition Matrix Calculations

Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We define the projected entropy S(T) at a given temperature T in the context of an Ising model transition matrix calculation as the entropy associated with the distribution of Markov chain realizations in energy-magnetization, E-H, space. An even sampling of states is achieved by accumulating the results from multiple Markov chains while decrementing 1/T at a rate proportional to the inverse of the effective number, exp(S(T)), of accessible projected states. Such a procedure is both highly accurate and far simpler to implement than a previously suggested method based on monitoring the evolution of the E-H distribution at each temperature. [1] We further demonstrate a transition matrix procedure that instead ensures uniform sampling in physical entropy.

Motivated by the recent development of anyon theory, we apply Temperley-Lieb algebra as a bridge to recast four-dimentional Yang-Baxter equation into its two-dimensional counterpart. In accordance with both representations, we find the corresponding linear-optical simulations, based on the highly efficient optical elements. Both the freedom degrees of photon polarization and location are utilized as the qubit basis, in which the unitary Yang-Baxter matrices are decomposed into combination of actions of basic optical elements.

description: This study was carried out to analyse the economics of cassava processing under value chain development program in Wushishi Local Government area of Niger State, Nigeria. The research described the socio-economic characteristics of the cassava processors, identified methods used by the cassava processors, estimated the cost and returns to cassava processing as well as analysed the determinants of income of cassava processors. The study utilized multistage sampling technique in selecting 100 processors from the study area. Data were obtained through the use of structured questionnaire and interview schedule. The data were analysed using descriptive statistics, farm budgeting technique and regression model. The farm budgeting analysis revealed that cassava processing into garri was profitable with a net income of ₦103,485.33. Labour intensity, high cost of cassava tubers and time consumption were the major constraints faced by the farmers. The regression analysis showed that 67% of the variation of the output was explained by the variables included in the model. Age (p<0.05), processing experience (p<0.01), transportation cost (p<0.05), storage cost (p<0.01) and packaging cost (p<0.01) were significant factors that influenced the income of cassava farmers under VCDP in the study area.The study recommendsthat the VCDP/Government should introduce innovative equipment that will reduce the stress in processing and ensure timeliness in processing operations.

description: We consider stationary time series $\{X_j, j \in Z\} whose finite dimensional distributions are regularly varying with extremal independence. We assume that for each $h \geq 1$, conditionally on $X_0$ to exceed a threshold tending to infinity, the conditional distribution of $X_h$ suitably normalized converges weakly to a non degenerate distribution. We consider in this paper the estimation of the normalization and of the limiting distribution.

description: The quantum Brownian motion paradigm provides a unified framework where one can see the interconnection of some basic quantum statistical processes like decoherence, dissipation, particle creation, noise and fluctuation. We treat the case where the Brownian particle is coupled linearly to a bath of time dependent quadratic oscillators. While the bath mimics a scalar field, the motion of the Brownian particle modeled by a single oscillator could be used to depict the behavior of a particle detector, a quantum field mode or the scale factor of the universe. An important result of this paper is the derivation of the influence functional encompassing the noise and dissipation kernels in terms of the Bogolubov coefficients. This method enables one to trace the source of statistical processes like decoherence and dissipation to vacuum fluctuations and particle creation, and in turn impart a statistical mechanical interpretation of quantum field processes. With this result we discuss the statistical mechanical origin of quantum noise and thermal radiance from black holes and from uniformly- accelerated observers in Minkowski space as well as from the de Sitter universe discovered by Hawking, Unruh and Gibbons-Hawking. We also derive the exact evolution operator and master equation for the reduced density matrix of the system interacting with a parametric oscillator bath in an initial squeezed thermal state. These results are useful for decoherence and backreaction studies for systems and processes of interest in semiclassical cosmology and gravity. Our model and results are also expected to be useful for related problems in quantum optics. %\pacs {05.40.+j,03.65.Sq,98.80.Cq,97.60.Lf}

description: Gletscherseen sind charakteristische Landschaftselemente im Hochgebirge, die verschiedene Nutzungspotenziale haben, aber auch eine mögliche Gefahr für Menschen und Infrastruktur in den Tälern darstellen. Im Zuge des fortschreitenden Rückzugs der Gletscher werden sich in Zukunft in vergletscherten Gebirgsregionen weltweit neue Gletscherseen bilden. Ein nachhaltiger Umgang mit den Risiken und Potenzialen dieser Seen erfordert eine langfristige und integrale Planung, die neben geo-technischen Aspekten auch sozio-ökonomische Faktoren und Entwicklungen berücksichtigt. Risks from Glacial Lakes under Climatic Change: Glacial lakes are characteristic landscape elements in mountains, comprising a variety of potential uses, but at the same time posing a potential risk to humans and infrastructure downstream. Wth the continued retreat of glaciers, new glacial lakes will form in glacierized mountain regions worldwide during the coming decades. A sustainable approach to deal with both the risks and opportunities provided by such lakes requires a long-term, integral planning, which considers besides geo-technical aspects also socio-economic factors and developments.

description: Carrying heavy loads increases the risk of pelvic organ disorders, particularly in low-income countries. Low self-efficacy hampers adoption of pelvic-floor-protective behaviors. The enabling hypothesis suggests that social support may strengthen women’s behavioral self-efficacy. A three-arm parallel non-randomized controlled trial with 300 women and their social partners experimentally examined whether self-efficacy and social support can enable women’s pelvic-floor-protective behaviors in rural Nepal. Three villages received (1) self-efficacy (2) self-efficacy and social support promotion, or (3) information only control. The co-primary outcomes were reduced weight carried and using protective lifting techniques at 2-month follow-up. Self-efficacy promotion increased the use of protective lifting techniques 9% more than information only ( d = 0.28). Weight was reduced by 3 kg more when additionally promoting social support compared to self-efficacy alone ( d = 0.39). Self-efficacy and social support promotion enable women to better protect their pelvic floor health and may complement educational approaches to health behavior change in low-resource populations.

Introducing a Systematic Approach to Clozapine Monitoring in a Community (Adult) Mental Health Service

description: Change management is now considered a core managerial competency. Under the fiscal and regulatory environment that currently applies, healthcare managers and professionals must be competent in initiating, guiding and managing change to drive efficient and effective delivery of care. This dissertation describes a successful journey through a planned change effort. An evidence-based approach to monitoring adverse effects of clozapine was implemented in a Community (Adult) Mental health Team. Clozapine has the sole license for treatment-resistant schizophrenia, but has been associated with several potentially life-threatening adverse effects. Accumulating evidence suggests that not enough attention is paid to recognising and addressing these adverse effects, a finding replicated in an internal audit of practice within this service. Additional external regulatory imperatives provided further impetus for change. The change was implemented using the HSE change model as a guiding tool. A range of qualitative and quantitative tools that were used to evaluate the change revealed successful attainment of set objectives, and also identified early signs for long term sustenance and continuous quality improvements. On reflection, the challenges encountered during this project have had considerable formative impact on the learning and practice of the author. It is hoped that future service evaluations will confirm attainment of its intended long term impact, while also providing objective bases for further continuous quality improvement initiatives.

description: We observe the unconventional photon blockade effect in quantum dot cavity QED, which, in contrast to conventional photon blockade, operates in the weak coupling regime. A single quantum dot transition is simultaneously coupled to two orthogonally polarized optical cavity modes, and by careful tuning of the input and output state of polarization, the unconventional photon blockade effect is observed. We find a minimum second-order correlation $g^{(2)}(0)\approx0.37$ which corresponds to $g^{(2)}(0)\approx0.005$ when corrected for detector jitter, and observe the expected polarization dependency and photon bunching and anti-bunching very close-by in parameter space, which indicates the abrupt change from phase to amplitude squeezing.

description: Die Umsetzung der UN-Behindertenrechtskonvention (UNO-BRK) stellt für die Schweiz eine bedeutende Herausforderung dar. Trotz der grundlegenden Verpflichtungen zur Gleichbehandlung aller Menschen mit und ohne Behinderungen bleibt die praktische Anwendung lückenhaft. In diesem Arbeitspapier wird die Umsetzung der bestehenden Rechtslage analysiert, um Reformbedarf und notwendige Handlungsperspektiven für die psychiatrische Versorgung der Schweiz zu identifizieren. Unsere Analyse zeigt, dass die schweizerische Psychiatrie noch einen langen Weg vor sich hat, um die Ziele der UNO-BRK vollständig zu erreichen. Wichtige Aspekte sind die Harmonisierung der gesetzlichen Grundlagen, die Schaffung von inklusiven und nicht-stigmatisierenden Begriffen sowie die Förderung der Teilhabe in verschiedenen Lebensbereichen. Eine konzertierte Anstrengung auf allen staatlichen Ebenen, gepaart mit einer fundierten Datenerhebung und der Einbindung von Betroffenen in die Entscheidungsprozesse, sind unerlässlich für eine nachhaltige Verbesserung der Lebensqualität von Menschen mit Behinderungen in der Schweiz.

description: The log-normal distribution is one of the most common distributions used for modeling skewed and positive data. It frequently arises in many disciplines of science, specially in the biological and medical sciences. The statistical analysis for comparing the means of two independent log-normal distributions is an issue of significant interest. In this paper we present a robust test for this problem. The unknown parameters of the model are estimated by minimum density power divergence estimators (Basu et al 1998, Biometrika, 85(3), 549-559). The robustness as well as the asymptotic properties of the proposed test statistics are rigorously established. The performance of the test is explored through simulations and real data analysis. The test is compared with some existing methods, and it is demonstrated that the proposed test outperforms the others in the presence of outliers.

description: We consider $ ν_μ \to ν_τ $ oscillations under the assumption that there is a see-saw type mixing of the light neutrinos with heavy Majorana particles. It is shown that the existing data, including the recent LEP data, do not exclude the possibility that the additional terms in the transition probability due to this mixing could be of the same order of magnitude as the usual oscillating term. Detail investigations of $ ν_μ \to ν_τ $ transitions in future CERN and Fermilab experiments could allow to get informations not only about the neutrino masses and mixing but also about the mixing of neutrinos with heavy Majorana particles.
