Nodal Structure Of Unconventional Superconductors Probed By Angle Resolved Thermal Transport Measurements, Y. Matsuda, K. Izawa, I. Vekhter Nov 2006

Nodal Structure Of Unconventional Superconductors Probed By Angle Resolved Thermal Transport Measurements, Y. Matsuda, K. Izawa, I. Vekhter

Faculty Publications

Over the past two decades, unconventional superconductivity with gap symmetry other than s wave has been found in several classes of materials, including heavy fermion, high Tc, and organic superconductors. Unconventional superconductivity is characterized by anisotropic superconducting gap functions, which may have zeros (nodes) along certain directions in the Brillouin zone. The nodal structure is closely related to the pairing interaction, and it is widely believed that the presence of nodes is a signature of magnetic or some other exotic, rather than conventional phonon mediated, pairing mechanism. Therefore experimental determination of the gap function is of fundamental importance. However, the …

Measurement Of The Cp-Violation Parameter Of B0 Mixing And Decay With Pp̅ → ΜμX Data, V. M. Abazov, Kenneth A. Bloom, Gregory R. Snow, D0 Collaboration Nov 2006

Measurement Of The Cp-Violation Parameter Of B0 Mixing And Decay With Pp̅ → ΜμX Data, V. M. Abazov, Kenneth A. Bloom, Gregory R. Snow, D0 Collaboration

Kenneth Bloom Publications

We measure the dimuon charge asymmetry A in pp̅ collisions at a center of mass energy √s =1960 GeV. The data was recorded with the D0 detector and corresponds to an integrated luminosity of approximately 1:0 fb-1. Assuming that the asymmetry A is due to asymmetric B0 ↔ B̅ mixing and decay, we extract the CP-violation parameter of B0 mixing and decay: [ℜ(∊B0)]/[1+∣∊B0∣2 = (AB0)/4 = -0.0023 ± 0.0011 (stat) ± 0.0008(syst). AB0 is the dimuon charge asymmetry from decays of B …

Properties Of Monotonic Effects, Tyler J. Vanderweele, James M. Robins Nov 2006

Properties Of Monotonic Effects, Tyler J. Vanderweele, James M. Robins

COBRA Preprint Series

Various relationships are shown hold between monotonic effects and weak monotonic effects and the monotonicity of certain conditional expectations. This relationship is considered for both binary and non-binary variables. Counterexamples are provide to show that the results do not hold under less restrictive conditions. The ideas of monotonic effects are furthermore used to relate signed edges on a directed acyclic graph to qualitative effect modification.

Acculturation Status And Heavy Alcohol Use Among Mexican American College Students: Investigating The Moderating Role Of Gender, Byron L. Zamboanga, Marcela Raffaelli, Nicholas J. Horton Nov 2006

Acculturation Status And Heavy Alcohol Use Among Mexican American College Students: Investigating The Moderating Role Of Gender, Byron L. Zamboanga, Marcela Raffaelli, Nicholas J. Horton

Department of Psychology: Faculty Publications

We examined whether gender moderates the association between acculturation and heavy alcohol use. The sample consisted of 126 Mexican American college students (Mean age = 24.7 years; 57% female) who completed self-report measures of heavy alcohol use, acculturation status (global acculturation and ethnic identity), and relevant control variables (age, peer alcohol use). Multivariable regression revealed that higher levels of ethnic identity were associated with greater frequency of heavy alcohol among men. Conversely, neither measure of acculturation was associated with heavy alcohol use among women. These findings suggest that interventions for Latino/a students should consider the role of culturally relevant variables …

Islamic Finance Industry: Positioned For Growth, Ishrat Husain Dr. Nov 2006

Islamic Finance Industry: Positioned For Growth, Ishrat Husain Dr.

Faculty Research - Talks, Speeches, & Discourse

The achievements made by Islamic Finance Industry during the last few years have indeed been impressive. The growth rate of 15-20% annually, the evolution of sukuks, fixed income, equity, money market instruments and the attraction of Islamic products among a large variety of issuers and investors globally have been the salient features that have characterized the Islamic Finance Industry (IFI). What I propose to do this afternoon is to spell out the challenges that the industry has to meet during the next several years to integrate itself within the framework of global financial system. First, the host country leadership in …

Department of Orthopaedic Surgery Faculty Papers

Abstract Background Context Despite technological advances in spine surgery, classification of sub-axial cervical spine injuries remains largely descriptive, lacking standardization and any relationship to prognosis or clinical decision making. Purpose The primary purpose of this paper is to define a classification system for sub-axial cervical spine trauma that conveys information about injury pattern and severity as well as treatment considerations and prognosis. The proposed system is designed to be both comprehensive and easy to use. The secondary objective is to evaluate the classification system in the basic principles of classification construction, namely reliability and validity. Study Design/Setting Derivation of the …


Learning In Short-Time Horizons With Measurable Costs, Patrick Bowen Mullen Nov 2006

Learning In Short-Time Horizons With Measurable Costs, Patrick Bowen Mullen

Theses and Dissertations

Dynamic pricing is a difficult problem for machine learning. The environment is noisy, dynamic and has a measurable cost associated with exploration that necessitates that learning be done in short-time horizons. These short-time horizons force the learning algorithms to make pricing decisions based on scarce data. In this work, various machine learning algorithms are compared in the context of dynamic pricing. These algorithms include the Kalman filter, artificial neural networks, particle swarm optimization and genetic algorithms. The majority of these algorithms have been modified to handle the pricing problem. The results show that these adaptations allow the learning algorithms to …
