Dirac versus Weyl fermions in topological insulators: Adler-Bell-Jackiw anomaly in transport phenomena.
Dirac metals (gapless semiconductors) are believed to turn into Weyl metals when perturbations, which break either time reversal symmetry or inversion symmetry, are employed. However, no experimental evidence has been reported for the existence of Weyl fermions in three dimensions. Applying magnetic fields near the topological phase transition from a topological insulator to a band insulator in Bi1-xSbx we observe not only the weak antilocalization phenomenon in magnetoconductivity near zero magnetic fields (B<0.4 T), but also its upturn above 0.4 T only for E//B. This "incompatible" coexistence between weak antilocalization and "negative" magnetoresistivity is attributed to the Adler-Bell-Jackiw anomaly ("topological" E·B term) in the presence of weak antilocalization corrections.

Lesson Title: Topological Insulators and Fermions

Introduction:
Topological insulators are a unique class of materials that exhibit insulating behavior in their bulk but have conducting surface states. These materials have attracted significant attention due to their potential applications in quantum computing and spintronics. In this lesson, we will explore the differences between Dirac and Weyl fermions, which are the quasiparticles responsible for the conducting surface states in topological insulators. We will also discuss the Adler-Bell-Jackiw anomaly, which is a key feature of these materials.

Section 1: Dirac and Weyl Fermions

Dirac fermions are a type of fermion that obey the Dirac equation, which describes relativistic particles. They are found in materials such as graphene, where they exhibit linear energy-momentum dispersion relations. Weyl fermions, on the other hand, are a type of fermion that obey a different set of equations called the Weyl equations. They were first proposed by Hermann Weyl in 1929 and are found in certain condensed matter systems, such as Weyl semimetals.

Dirac metals are a type of material that exhibits similar properties to graphene but with a smaller bandgap. When perturbations are applied to these materials, they can transition into Weyl metals, which are characterized by their unique band structure and topological properties.

Section 2: Adler-Bell-Jackiw Anomaly

The Adler-Bell-Jackiw (ABJ) anomaly is a phenomenon that occurs in certain materials with non-trivial topological properties. It is named after the physicists who first discovered it, Michael Adler, Paul Bell, and Chen-Tsu Wu. The ABJ anomaly arises due to the presence of a "topological" term in the effective field theory that describes the material's properties. This term is related to the topological charge of the material and is responsible for the unique transport properties observed in these systems.

Section 3: Transport Phenomena in Topological Insulators

In topological insulators, the transport properties are governed by the topological invariants associated with the material's band structure. These invariants determine the number of gapless edge states that can propagate through the material. When a magnetic field is applied to the material, these edge states can give rise to phenomena such as weak antilocalization and negative magnetoresistance.

Weak antilocalization is a phenomenon where the magnetoresistance of the material increases as the magnetic field strength decreases. This is due to the interference of electronic waves scattered by impurities in the material. Negative magnetoresistance, on the other hand, is a phenomenon where the resistivity of the material decreases as the magnetic field strength increases. This is due to the formation of localized states in the material's band structure.

Conclusion:
In this lesson, we have explored the differences between Dirac and Weyl fermions, the Adler-Bell-Jackiw anomaly, and the transport phenomena observed in topological insulators. We have seen that these materials exhibit unique properties due to their topological nature and have potential applications in quantum computing and spintronics. By understanding the underlying physics, we can continue to push the boundaries of our knowledge and develop new technologies based on these fascinating materials.

Level 17 : Journeyman Miner

In celebration of Canada's upcoming 150th Anniversary, I decided to recreate one of it's more iconic buildings. The Parliament buildings in Ottawa, Ontario, Canada's Capital.

Real Life History

The East and West blocks were finished in 1872. The current Centre Block was completed in 1920 after the original was destroyed in a fire in 1916. Since then Parliament Hill has been home to the canadian Government. It's also known for it's celebrations of Canada day every . year with thousands of people packing the hill to watch musical acts and see the fireworks. the Grounds of the Parliament Buildings are open to the public and guided tours of the Centre Block are available.

Minecraft

I recreated the buildings in minecraft to 1:1 scale. That means that 1 meter in real life is equal to one block in Minecraft. This also means that the angles, heights and ground elevations should also match their real life counterparts. At this time in real life the area between the Centre and West blocks is undergoing major construction so I just skipped that area for now until it's completion IRL in 2018. Currently the project is about 85% done with some details around the back of the centre Block as well as the Library still needing to be completed.

text: The sequence method was first described by Di Rienzo in cats and applied in different species including humans. Until now, no systematic study of spontaneous baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) has been performed by the sequence method in mice. This study aimed to characterize the best estimates of BRS using the sequence method by tuning all the possible parameters, specifically, the number of beats involved in a sequence, the minimal changes in blood-pressure (BP) ramps, and the minimal changes in pulse-interval (PI) ramps. Also, the relevance to set a minimal correlation coefficient in the regression line between BP and PI was tested. An important point was the delay to be applied between BP and PI. This delay represents the physiological time for the baroreflex loop to efficiently correct the BP variations.

textbook:
Lesson: Introduction to Baroreflex Sensitivity

## Section 1: Theoretical Concepts
Baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) is a measure of how well the body can regulate blood pressure (BP) in response to changes in blood flow. It is an important physiological parameter that helps maintain homeostasis and prevent complications related to hypertension or hypotension. In this lesson, we will learn about the sequence method, which is a technique used to measure BRS in animals.

## Section 2: Practical Examples
The sequence method involves applying a series of gradual changes in BP and PI to the animal's body. The animal's heart rate (HR) is then monitored during these changes. By analyzing the relationship between BP and PI, we can determine the animal's BRS. For example, if a sudden decrease in BP causes an increase in HR, the animal has a high BRS. On the other hand, if a sudden decrease in BP causes a decrease in HR, the animal has a low BRS.

## Section 3: Real-World Scenarios
In a real-world scenario, the sequence method can be used to study the effects of drugs on BRS. For instance, if a drug is known to affect the baroreflex loop, researchers can use the sequence method to measure the change in BRS before and after administering the drug. This information can be used to determine the safety and efficacy of the drug.

## Glossary
- Baroreflex sensitivity (BRS): A measure of how well the body can regulate blood pressure in response to changes in blood flow.
- Sequence method: A technique used to measure BRS in animals by applying a series of gradual changes in blood pressure and pulse interval.
- Blood pressure (BP): The pressure of blood against the walls of arteries.
- Pulse interval (PI): The time between two consecutive heartbeats.
- Heart rate (HR): The number of heartbeats per minute.

## Conclusion
In this lesson, we learned about the sequence method, a technique used to measure BRS in animals. We also explored practical examples and real-world scenarios where the sequence method can be applied. By understanding the theoretical concepts, practical examples, and real-world scenarios, we can gain a deeper understanding of how BRS works and its importance in maintaining homeostasis.

Lesson: How to Choose the Right Timer for Your Grow Lights

Introduction:
In this lesson, we will learn about the importance of choosing the right timer for your grow lights. We will cover the differences between normal household timers and heavy-duty timers, and discuss why it is crucial to use a timer designed for high inductive loads when using HID ballasts.

Section 1: Understanding the Basics

**Topic 1: What is a Timer?**
A timer is an electrical device that regulates the amount of time electrical power flows to a circuit or appliance. It is commonly used in horticulture to control the lighting cycle of plants, especially during their vegetative stage.

**Topic 2: Types of Timers**
There are two main types of timers: normal household timers and heavy-duty timers. Normal household timers are designed for low-power circuits like lamps and small appliances. Heavy-duty timers, on the other hand, are designed to handle high inductive loads, such as those produced by HID ballasts.

**Topic 3: Why Use a Timer?**
Using a timer is essential for controlling the lighting cycle of plants. It helps maintain a consistent schedule, which is crucial for their growth and development. A timer also saves energy by turning off the lights automatically when they are not needed.

Section 2: Understanding the Differences

**Topic 4: Normal Household Timers vs. Heavy-Duty Timers**
Normal household timers are not designed to handle high inductive loads produced by HID ballasts. If used with an HID ballast, the contacts inside the timer will overheat and weld together, breaking the timer and leaving your grow lights permanently on. On the other hand, heavy-duty timers are designed to take high loads and have no problem dealing with the inductive loads produced by a 600w ballast.

**Topic 5: Why Choose a Heavy-Duty Timer?**
Choosing a heavy-duty timer is crucial because it can handle the high inductive loads produced by HID ballasts. Using a normal household timer can result in damaged timers and permanently left-on grow lights, which can be detrimental to plant growth and energy efficiency.

Section 3: Practical Examples

**Topic 6: Real-World Scenarios**
In horticulture, heavy-duty timers are essential for controlling the lighting cycle of plants. For example, a grower may use a heavy-duty timer to turn on their HID lights at 6 am and turn them off at 10 pm every day. This consistent schedule helps the plants grow and develop properly.

**Topic 7: Mathematical Abstractions**
Let's consider a scenario where a grower uses a normal household timer with an HID ballast. If the timer is set to turn the lights on at 6 am and off at 10 pm, the inductive load produced by the ballast will cause the timer to overheat and weld together within a few hours. This will result in permanently left-on grow lights, which can damage the plants and increase energy costs.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, choosing the right timer for your grow lights is crucial for plant growth and energy efficiency. Normal household timers are not designed to handle high inductive loads produced by HID ballasts, so it is essential to use a heavy-duty timer that can handle these loads. By doing so, you can ensure consistent lighting cycles and prevent damage to your grow lights and plants.

Glossary:
- Timer: An electrical device that regulates the amount of time electrical power flows to a circuit or appliance.
- HID ballast: A device that controls the output of high-intensity discharge lamps, such as metal halide or high-pressure sodium lamps.
- Inductive load: A load that generates a significant amount of electromagnetic interference, such as motors, transformers, and generators.
- Heavy-duty timer: A timer designed to handle high inductive loads and is suitable for use with HID ballasts.

They will explore different methods of naming people and places and analyze the impact of cultural and historical context on naming practices. By the end of this lesson, students will be able to identify the significance of names and their origins, understand the differences between various naming traditions, and apply their knowledge to real-life scenarios.

Level: Primary through High School

Section 1: Introduction

In our daily lives, we encounter names everywhere - from street signs to personal introductions. Names hold great significance as they represent identity and help us connect with others. In this lesson, we will delve into the meaning and origin of names, exploring various naming traditions and their impact on culture and history.

Section 2: Meaning and Origin of Names

A name is a word or phrase used to identify a person, place, or thing. It can be given at birth, chosen later in life, or inherited from family members. Names often have meanings associated with them, which can provide insight into a person's character or cultural background.

Activity: Have students research the origin and meaning of their own names. Encourage them to explore any cultural or historical significance attached to their names.

Section 3: Naming Traditions Around the World

Different cultures have different naming traditions. Some cultures use family names only, while others use given names followed by surnames. Some cultures believe that certain names bring good luck or fortune, while others believe that certain names have negative connotations.

Activity: Have students research naming traditions in different cultures. Have them compare and contrast the similarities and differences between these traditions.

Section 4: Impact of Names on Culture and History

Names can have a significant impact on culture and history. For example, during the American Civil Rights Movement, many African Americans changed their surnames to reflect pride in their heritage or to distance themselves from slavery. Similarly, in Japan, family names are derived from clan names, which can provide insight into one's ancestry and social status.

Activity: Have students analyze the impact of names on history. For example, have them research how the use of last names has evolved over time and how it has influenced social structures and power dynamics.

Section 5: Conclusion

Understanding the meaning and origin of names is essential in building connections with others and appreciating cultural differences. By examining various naming traditions, we can gain insight into the rich tapestry of human experiences. As we apply this knowledge to real-life scenarios, we will continue to deepen our understanding of ourselves and others.

Arguments For:
- This activity promotes self-awareness and appreciation for cultural differences.
- It encourages students to explore their own identity and heritage.
- It provides an opportunity for students to share their unique experiences and perspectives.

Arguments Against:
- It may be time-consuming and distract from other important topics in the curriculum.

Sen. Elizabeth Warren Elizabeth WarrenJudd Gregg: The Kamala threat — the Californiaization of America GOP set to release controversial Biden report Biden's fiscal program: What is the likely market impact? MORE (D-Mass.) criticized the Trump administration for its “chaotic foreign policy” and said Washington's policies toward China have been “misdirected” for decades.

Warren said during a visit to the region that President Trump Donald John TrumpBubba Wallace to be driver of Michael Jordan, Denny Hamlin NASCAR team Graham: GOP will confirm Trump's Supreme Court nominee before the election Southwest Airlines, unions call for six-month extension of government aid MORE is hurting the U.S.'s ability to create an effective foreign policy toward North Korea’s nuclear program and other vital issues in Asia, The Associated Press reported.

“This has been a chaotic foreign policy in the region, and that makes it hard to keep the allies that we need to accomplish our objectives closely stitched-in,” Warren told reporters in Beijing on Saturday.

The senator, whom many consider a possible 2020 presidential candidate, also visited South Korea and Japan, where she criticized Trump for his “rash” agreement to meet with North Korean leader Kim Jong Un.

For the summit between Trump and Kim to be a success, Warren said, there would need to be a commitment to discuss steps to reduce North Korea’s nuclear threat, Reuters reported. That would require negotiations by the State Department Trump has weakened, she said.

Warren, 68, argued that vacancies in the foreign service are getting in the way of the country’s ability to pursue its interests.

Warren also said that the foreign policy the U.S. has pursued with China for decades is flawed.

She said that the U.S. has mistakenly assumed for years that economic engagement with China would lead to a more open China. Now, she argued, the U.S. is finally understanding Chinese demands for U.S. companies to provide their intellectual property in exchange for access to its market.

“Now U.S. policymakers are starting to look more aggressively at pushing China to open up the markets without demanding a hostage price of access to U.S. technology,” she said.

Warren told Chinese officials that the U.S. can't support more economic integration with China if China fails to recognize basic human rights.

“I understand that our relationship with China is complex. There are areas where we have mutual interests and where we will work together to try to accomplish our shared goals,” Warren said. “But there are also areas where we are vigorous competitors and do not have shared interests.”

Lesson: Understanding Foreign Policy and Its Impact on International Relations

Introduction:
Foreign policy refers to the strategies and principles that govern a country's interactions with other nations. It is a crucial aspect of international relations, as it helps to maintain peace, promote trade, and protect national interests. In this lesson, we will explore the basics of foreign policy, its impact on international relations, and how it can influence economic and political developments.

Section 1: What is Foreign Policy?

Foreign policy is the strategy chosen by a country's government to guide its relationships with other countries. It involves a range of activities, including diplomacy, trade agreements, military alliances, and humanitarian aid. Foreign policy is designed to advance a country's interests and values, while also taking into account the interests and values of other nations.

Section 2: The Impact of Foreign Policy on International Relations

Foreign policy plays a significant role in shaping international relations. It can help to foster cooperation and collaboration between nations, or it can lead to conflict and tension. For example, when countries have similar foreign policies, they are more likely to work together to achieve common goals. Conversely, when countries have conflicting foreign policies, they may engage in competition or even war.

Section 3: How Foreign Policy Can Influence Economic and Political Developments

Foreign policy can have a significant impact on a country's economy and politics. For instance, trade agreements can boost economic growth by allowing countries to exchange goods and services. On the other hand, military conflicts can disrupt trade and cause economic hardship for both the aggressor and the victim. Additionally, foreign policy decisions can affect a country's political stability. For example, if a country supports human rights abusers, it may face criticism and sanctions from other nations, which could undermine its domestic political support.

Section 4: Critical Thinking Questions

1. How does a country's foreign policy affect its relationship with other nations?
2. Can you think of any examples where foreign policy has led to conflict or cooperation between countries?
3. How does foreign policy influence a country's economy and politics?

Conclusion:
Understanding foreign policy is essential for anyone interested in international relations. By examining the basics of foreign policy and its impact on international relations, we can better understand how countries interact with one another and how economic and political developments are influenced by these interactions. As we continue to explore this topic, we will delve deeper into the intricacies of foreign policy and its role in shaping the world around us.

Lesson: Introduction to Economics

**Objective:** To introduce students to the basic concepts of economics and how it affects their daily lives.

**Introduction:** Economics is the study of how people use scarce resources to satisfy their unlimited wants and needs. It is an essential subject that helps us understand how societies allocate resources, produce goods and services, and distribute income.

**Section 1: Basic Concepts**

**Topic 1: Supply and Demand**
- Supply refers to the quantity of a product or service that producers are willing to offer at different prices.
- Demand refers to the quantity of a product or service that consumers are willing to buy at different prices.
- The interaction between supply and demand determines the market price and quantity of a product or service.

**Topic 2: Opportunity Cost**
- Opportunity cost is the value of the next best alternative that must be given up when making a choice.
- It helps us understand the cost of not choosing one option over another.
- For example, if you choose to spend your money on a movie ticket, the opportunity cost is the value of what you could have done with that money, such as buying a book or eating out.

**Section 2: Practical Examples**

**Topic 3: Budgeting**
- A budget is a plan that shows how much money you have and how you will spend it.
- It helps you prioritize your spending and avoid overspending.
- For example, if you have $100 and want to buy a new phone, you need to consider if you can afford it within your budget.

**Topic 4: Saving and Investing**
- Saving refers to setting aside money for future use.
- Investing involves putting money into an asset or venture with the expectation of gaining profit.
- For example, if you save $50 each month and invest it in stocks, you may earn interest over time.

**Section 3: Critical Thinking**

**Topic 5: Trade-offs**
- Every decision has a cost, and we must be willing to give up something to get something else.
- For example, if you want to go on a vacation, you may have to sacrifice eating out or buying new clothes.
- Understanding trade-offs helps us make informed decisions.

**Conclusion:** Economics is an essential subject that helps us understand how societies allocate resources, produce goods and services, and distribute income. By understanding basic concepts like supply and demand, opportunity cost, budgeting, saving, and investing, we can make informed decisions about our finances and daily lives.

**Glossary:**
- Scarcity: The limited availability of resources to satisfy unlimited wants and needs.
- Production: The process of creating goods and services.
- Consumption: The act of using or enjoying something.
- Income: Money earned from work, investments, or other sources.
- Resource allocation: The process by which societies decide how to use scarce resources to satisfy unlimited wants and needs.

**Self-Debate:** How does understanding economics help us make better decisions in our daily lives?

text: Normannia and Hantonia. The Hantonia and Normannia were sister ships built for the London and South Western Railway in 1910-12 and only operated on Channel Island routes as relief ships. Their normal route was Southampton-Le Havre.. They were built by the Fairfield Shipbuilding and Engineering Company of Govan. They were twin screw, coal steam turbines of 1,560 tons gross, 209 feet in length and 36 feetbeam. Their engines developed 4,750 horse power, giving an operating speed of 18 knots.. Hantonia first visited Jersey in 1923, as a replacement for the Caesarea, which had sunk outside St Helier pierheads, and Normannia did not appear in Channel Island waters until 1926. She was sunk in 1940 during World War II at Dunkirk.. Hantonia served as an accommodation vessel during the Second World War. After the war she reopened the Jersey-St Malo service for a short time and was ultimately broken up at Grays, Essex in June 1952.

Lesson: The History of Two Ships - Normannia and Hantonia

Introduction:
In this lesson, we will learn about two ships named Normannia and Hantonia. These ships were built in the early 20th century and were used for transporting passengers and cargo between England and France. We will explore their history, design, and significance in the context of maritime history.

Section 1: History of Normannia and Hantonia

The Normannia and Hantonia were two sister ships built for the London and South Western Railway in 1910-12. They were designed to operate on Channel Island routes as relief ships. Their normal route was Southampton-Le Havre.

The Hantonia first visited Jersey in 1923, as a replacement for the Caesarea, which had sunk outside St Helier pierheads. Normannia did not appear in Channel Island waters until 1926.

During World War II, Normannia served as an accommodation vessel while Hantonia was sunk at Dunkirk. After the war, Hantonia reopened the Jersey-St Malo service for a short time before being ultimately broken up at Grays, Essex in June 1952.

Section 2: Design and Specifications of Normannia and Hantonia

The Normannia and Hantonia were twin screw, coal steam turbines of 1,560 tons gross, 209 feet in length and 36 feet beam. Their engines developed 4,750 horsepower, giving an operating speed of 18 knots.

They were built by the Fairfield Shipbuilding and Engineering Company of Govan. The ships had a steel hull and were equipped with modern amenities such as electric lighting and heating.

Section 3: Significance of Normannia and Hantonia

The Normannia and Hantonia were significant because they were among the first ships to use steam turbines instead of reciprocating engines. This made them more efficient and faster than previous ships.

Additionally, they played an important role in transporting passengers and cargo between England and France during a time when sea travel was becoming increasingly important.

Conclusion:
In this lesson, we learned about the history, design, and significance of the Normannia and Hantonia. We explored how these ships were used to transport passengers and cargo between England and France and how they were significant in the context of maritime history. By studying the history of these ships, we can gain a better understanding of the evolution of sea travel and the importance of technological advancements in improving efficiency and speed.
