Quasi-Normal Modes of Extended Uncertainty Principle Kerr Black Holes
No full textThe current understanding of gravity is shaped largely by Albert Einstein’s theory of General Relativity. This theory is highly successful at predicting phenomenon on macroscopic scales, but it faces unphysical singularities at quantum scales. This thesis will explore the possibility of combining General Relativity with quantum mechanics through the Extended Uncertainty Principle (EUP), which provides a new, fundamental length scale correction to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle. This allows for quantum gravity effects at macroscopic scales, which will be examined through Kerr black holes with event horizons on the order of . These black holes are rotating and electrically neutral, and they are the most common type of black holes in our universe. To test the EUP on Kerr black holes, this thesis will examine the quasi-normal modes produced by gravitational wave perturbations predicted by the EUP. This method will include Mathematica code based on the Leaver method to calculate quasi-normal modes from the EUP modified Kerr black holes. This thesis aims to prove coherence between the EUP corrected quasi-normal modes for Kerr black holes with general relativity predictions for Kerr black hole mergers

Non-imaging Method: Air Displacement Plethysmography (Bod Pod)
No full textAir displacement plethysmography is used to measure body volume. The Bod Pod (COSMED USA Inc., Concord, CA) is an easy-to-use, convenient, non-invasive device that can accommodate a large spectrum of athletic physiques, assessing fat and fat-free mass reliably and accurately. Estimates of body density are in close agreement to those using the hydrostatic weighing technique, with Bod Pod now considered the gold standard for assessment of body density in multi-compartment models. It often underestimates fat mass compared to other physique assessment techniques; however, this may be due to poor standardisation practices. When undertaken in a well-controlled standardised manner, Bod Pod has proven to be an accurate and reliable technique for tracking physique changes over time. It is valuable in large athletes who may be more comfortable undertaking physique assessment via Bod Pod compared to other techniques where reliability in this population might be an issue

Non-imaging Method: Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis
No full textBioelectrical impedance analysis allows measurement of total body water, which is used to estimate fat-free body mass and, by difference with body mass, body fat. An athlete appointment of 15 min is needed for body mass and standing stature measurement, electrode placement, and then 1 min of data collection. The method is popular due to the procedure being simple and non-invasive, good portability of the equipment and its relatively low cost compared to other methods of body composition analysis. However, precision and validity can be low without a standardised protocol of assessment that includes guidance for subject presentation. Sensitivity to monitor change of physique is low given variation in athlete presentation for testing can affect the results (e.g. levels of hydration). Training is available from equipment suppliers; however, there are no accreditation systems. The techniques to collect the data are easy; however, interpretation of the data is impeded given the black box approach to the data. Studies that compare results from bioelectrical impedance analysis to other body composition techniques are outlined, and example reports to athletes are provided

Distribution of the suffix -ava in the Slovak hydronymy
No full textAutor sa zaoberá riesením problematiky toponymického formantu -ava v slovenskej hydronymii so zameraním na jeho pôvod a výskyt v slovanskej a slovenskej hydronymii. Varianty -ava a -va mozno vysvetlit ako jav interferencie a medzijazykových kontaktov.Viac pravdepodobným sa vsak zdá byt jeho výklad ako praslovanského formantu, ktorého variantnost musíme hladat este v praslovanskom období. V tradièných výkladoch ho starsí autori odvodzujú zo starého nemeckého slova ahwa ("voda"). Niektorí autori zasa hladajú jeho pôvod v starej slovanskej lexike. V slovenskej hydronymii nachádzame hydronymá s formantom - ava v historických aj nových dokladoch (z 10. - 13. storoèia 32 hydroným, zo 14. - 18. st. 5 dokladov, z 19. - 20. st. 21 dokladov; 5 z nich má pravdepodobne neslovanský pôvod a 43 má preukázatelne slovanský, resp. slovenský pôvod. Distribúciu formantu -ava v slovenskej hydronymii dokumentujeme na speciálnej mapke.Автор пытается решить проблему топонимического форманта -ава в словацкой гидронимии, учитывая его происхождение и использование в славянской и словацкой гидронимии. Варианты -ава и -ва можно толковать как явление интерференции и межъязыковых контактов. Но более вероятным кажется его толкование как праславянского суффикса, вариантность которого нужно искать ещё в праславянском периоде. В традиционных толкованиях его происхождение объясняют из древнегерм. слова ahwa (.вода.). Некоторые авторы ищут его истоки в древней славянской лексике. В словацкой гидронимии находим названия с формантом -ава в старинных и новых гидронимах (10 . 13 век: 32 гидронима, 14 - 18 век: 5, 19 - 20 век: 21 гидроним 5 из них, вероятно, не славянского происхождения и 43 славянского . словацкого происхождения). Распространение форманта -ава в словацкой гидронимии показано на специальной карте.The author deals with the handling of the toponymic formant -ava issue in the Slovak hydronymy with the focus on its origin and occurence in the Slavic and Slovak hydronymy. The variants -ava and -va may be explained as a phenomenon of interference and interlingual contacts. More probable seems to be its explanation as that of an ancient Slavic formant whose variations have to be traced back to the ancient Slavic period. In traditional explanations some older authors derive it from an old German word ahwa /»water»/. Some authors look for its origin in old Slavic lexicon. In Slovak hydronymy we find hydronyms with the formant -ava in historical and new documents /from 10 - 13 century 32 hydronyms, from 14 - 18 century 5 documents, from 19 - 20 century 21 documents, out of these 5 have probably non-Slavic origin and 43 have demonstrably Slavic or Slovak origin.
