Putative ante-mortem indicators of Alzheimer’s dementia: Analysis of fluid biomarker and neuroimaging studies
DownloadSpring 2019
Dementia is a clinical state, characterized by symptoms indicative of deterioration of memoryand cognitive functions that interferes with social or occupational functioning. According to2018 statistics, around 50 million people are living with dementia, and this number will increaseto 131.5...

Queering High School: An Ethnodramatic Inqueery on Youth Experiences of Homophobic, Biphobic and Transphobic Harassment and Bullying
DownloadFall 2020
“Queering High School,” was a queer ethnodrama on the lived experience of LGBTQ youth in Alberta high schools that explored their experiences of homophobia, biphobia and transphobia. This ethnodrama, conducted through a queer lens, which I refer to as an ethnodramatic inqueery, was grounded in...

Rankin, Robert, Gardner, L. R. T., Barr, H. C., Boyd, T. J. M.
The effects of a magnetic field on the Raman and two‐plasmon decay instabilities are studied in the region of the quarter‐critical density of laser produced plasmas where both are coincident. Two‐plasmon decay of the incident extraordinary wave into two upper‐hybrid waves may now occur in the...

Self‐consistent electron acceleration due to inertial Alfvén wave pulsesournal of Geophysical Research: Space Physics, 110(A10), [pp

Watt, Clare E. J., Wright, D. M. , Rankin, Robert, Rae, I. Jonathan
We present self-consistent kinetic simulations of the electron response to finite duration shear Alfven wave pulses in a magnetized plasma. In Earth's magnetosphere, the evidence suggests that parallel electric fields in inertial scale shear Alfven waves can accelerate electrons in the...

Self‐consistent wave‐particle interactions in dispersive scale long‐period field‐line‐resonances
Download2007
Rankin, Robert, Samson, John C., Watt, Clare E. J.
Using 1D Vlasov drift-kinetic computer simulations, it is shown that electron trapping in long period standing shear Alfvén waves (SAWs) provides an efficient energy sink for wave energy that is much more effective than Landau damping. It is also suggested that the plasma environment of low...

Schriver, David, Trávníček, Pavel M., Rankin, Robert, Paral, Jan
Two flybys of Mercury by the NASA MESSENGER spacecraft on January 14 and October 6, 2008 provide insight into the spatial distribution of the heavy ion exosphere around the planet. The relatively quiet solar wind conditions and interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) orientation allow us to compare...

Containerized software systems are becoming more popular and complex as they are one of the essential techniques that enable cloud computing. One of the enabling technologies for containerized software systems is the Docker framework. Docker is an open-source framework for deploying containers,...
