A Spatial And Multivariate Approach To Examining Effects Of Urbanization On Nitrogen Sources, Organic Matter Inputs, And Trophic Structure In Streams Of Cobb And Paulding Counties, Georgia., Katharine Horning Nov 2020

A Spatial And Multivariate Approach To Examining Effects Of Urbanization On Nitrogen Sources, Organic Matter Inputs, And Trophic Structure In Streams Of Cobb And Paulding Counties, Georgia., Katharine Horning

Master of Science in Integrative Biology Theses

Urbanization and land use changes have a negative effect on streams often causing numerous physical changes in stream morphology, a change in nutrient concentrations, and altered ecosystems contributing to a loss of habitat, decreased biodiversity, and loss of stability for ecosystem function (Walsh et al., 2005; Meyer et al., 2005; Cardinale and Palmer, 2012). The use of stable isotope analysis for monitoring could be valuable because it accounts for temporal integration from anthropogenic wastewater inputs, characterized by a shift in the abundance of 15N. This project had three main objectives: (1) to examine how nitrogen and carbon sources are …

Induced Interactions And Quench Dynamics Of Bosonic Impurities Immersed In A Fermi Sea, K. Mukherjee, Simeon I. Mistakidis, S. Majumder, P. Schmelcher

Physics Faculty Research & Creative Works

We Unravel The Ground-State Properties And The Nonequilibrium Quantum Dynamics Of Two Bosonic Impurities Immersed In A One-Dimensional Fermionic Environment By Applying A Quench Of The Impurity-Medium Interaction Strength. In The Ground State, The Impurities And The Fermi Sea Are Phase Separated For Strong Impurity-Medium Repulsions While They Experience A Localization Tendency Around The Trap Center For Large Attractions. We Demonstrate The Presence Of Attractive Induced Interactions Mediated By The Host For Impurity-Medium Couplings Of Either Sign And Analyze The Competition Between Induced And Direct Interactions. A Quench To Repulsive Interactions Triggers A Breathing Motion In Both Components, With An …

Tidal Locking And The Gravitational Fold Catastrophe, Andrea Ferroglia, Miguel C. N. Fiolhais Nov 2020

Tidal Locking And The Gravitational Fold Catastrophe, Andrea Ferroglia, Miguel C. N. Fiolhais

Publications and Research

The purpose of this work is to study the phenomenon of tidal locking in a pedagogical framework by analyzing the effective gravitational potential of a two-body system with two spinning objects. It is shown that the effective potential of such a system is an example of a fold catastrophe. In fact, the existence of a local minimum and saddle point, corresponding to tidally locked circular orbits, is regulated by a single dimensionless control parameter that depends on the properties of the two bodies and on the total angular momentum of the system. The method described in this work results in …

Analytical And Quantitative Study For Forecasting Methods Of The Numbers Of Students In Palestinian Schools, Rajaa Albool, Anmar Zaidalkaylani Nov 2020

Analytical And Quantitative Study For Forecasting Methods Of The Numbers Of Students In Palestinian Schools, Rajaa Albool, Anmar Zaidalkaylani

An-Najah University Journal for Research - B (Humanities)

The forecasting process of the total number of students in Palestine contributes in studying the future educational needs by government and policy makers. The more accurate the forecasting, the more it contributes in saving time, effort, and money when providing educational services. It also contributes in providing other valuable information such as buildings, human and financial resources, and educational plans required. Since these services rely heavily on the accuracy of the forecasting, choosing an inappropriate method will result in unrealistic predictions that may lead to an increase or decrease in budgeted costs, and ultimately to a failed planning process. In …

Classic/Quantum Harmonic Oscillator, Killian J. Hitsman Nov 2020

Classic/Quantum Harmonic Oscillator, Killian J. Hitsman

Mathematics Colloquium Series

A Harmonic Oscillator is an integral part of periodic motion in Classical and Quantum Theory. For systems with small fluctuations near stable points of equilibrium, the Harmonic Oscillator serves as a good approximation for measuring eigenstates and wave amplitudes of the particle(s). Aside from the classical version, this presentation will include the Lie Algebra of commutation relations as well as the ladder operators (Discrete and Continuous) as it pertains to a Quantum Harmonic Oscillator. After that, one of its' contributions to scalar fields in Quantum Field Theory, namely the Casimir Force, will be discussed. Whether it is a system of …
