      Observational Tests of MOdified Gravity (MOG)and Non-Local Gravity with Galaxies’ Dynamic

      , Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology Zhoolideh Haghighi, Mohammad Hossein (Author) ; Rahvar, Sohrab (Supervisor) ; Moffat, John (Co-Advisor)
      Abstract
      Dark matter is one of the biggest unsolved problems in physics and cosmology. Almost 85 percent of the gravitational matter is not luminous and it’s properties is unknown. In recent decades variety of investigations regarding dark matter has been done which we will mention in the beginning part of this thesis. We continue testing MOdified gravity (MOG), Non-Local-Gravity (NLG) and MOdified Newtonian Dynamics (MOND) in a different scale by using the rotation curves of dwarf galaxies. In addition we compare MOG, MOND and NLG together to see which one better fit observed data. In another investigation that is reported in this thesis, we fit the observed acceleration data of galaxy cluster Abell... 

      The MOG weak field approximation - II. Observational test of Chandra X-ray clusters

      , Article Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society ; Volume 441, Issue 4 , June , 2014 , Pages 3724-3732 ; ISSN: 00358711 Moffat, J. W ; Rahvar, S ; Sharif University of Technology

      Abstract
      We apply the weak field approximation limit of the covariant scalar-tensor-vector gravity theory, so-called MOdified gravity (MOG), to the dynamics of clusters of galaxies by using only baryonic matter. The MOG effective gravitational potential in the weak field approximation is composed of an attractive Newtonian term and a repulsive Yukawa term with two parameters α and μ. The numerical values of these parameters have been obtained by fitting the predicted rotation curves of galaxies to observational data, yielding the best-fitting result: α =8.89±0.34 and μ = 0.042 ± 0.004 kpc-1. We extend the observational test of this theory to clusters of galaxies, using data for the ionized gas and... 

      The MOG weak field approximation and observational test of galaxy rotation curves

      , Article Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society ; Volume 436, Issue 2 , December , 2013 , Pages 1439-1451 ; 00358711 (ISSN) Moffat, J. W ; Rahvar, S ; Sharif University of Technology

      Abstract
      As an alternative to dark matter models, Modified Gravity (MOG) theory is a covariant modification of Einstein gravity. The theory introduces two additional scalar fields and one vector field. The aim is to explain the dynamics of astronomical systems based only on their baryonic matter. The effect of the vector field in the theory resembles a Lorentz force where each particle has a charge proportional to its inertial mass. The weak field approximation of MOG is derived by perturbing the metric and the fields around Minkowski space-time. We obtain an effective gravitational potential which yields the Newtonian attractive force plus a repulsive Yukawa force. This potential, in addition to the... 

      Modified gravity (MOG) and the abell 1689 cluster acceleration data

      , Article European Physical Journal Plus ; Volume 132, Issue 10 , 2017 ; 21905444 (ISSN) Moffat, J. W ; Zhoolideh Haghighi, M. H ; Sharif University of Technology

      Abstract
      The galaxy cluster system Abell 1689 has been well studied and yields good lensing and X-ray gas data. Modified gravity (MOG) is applied to the Abell 1689 cluster and the acceleration data is well fitted without assuming dark matter. Newtonian dynamics and modified Newtonian dynamics (MOND) are shown not to fit the acceleration data, while a dark matter model based on the Navarro-Frenk-White (NFW) mass profile is shown to fit the acceleration data for the radial range r> 200 kpc. © 2017, Società Italiana di Fisica and Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany  

      Applying MOG to lensing: Einstein rings, abell 520 and the Bullet Cluster

      Abstract
      We investigate gravitational lensing in the context of the MOG modified theory of gravity. Using a formulation of the theory with no adjustable or fitted parameters, we present the MOG equations of motion for slow, nonrelativistic test particles and for ultrarelativistic test particles, such as rays of light. We demonstrate how the MOG prediction for the bending of light can be applied to astronomical observations. Our investigation first focuses on a small set of strong lensing observations where the properties of the lensing objects are found to be consistent with the predictions of the theory. We also present an analysis of the colliding clusters 1E0657-558 (known also as the Bullet... 

      Tissue growth into three‐dimensional composite scaffolds with controlled micro‐features and nanotopographical surfaces [electronic resource]

      , Article Journal of Biomedical Materials Research Part A ; October 2013, Vol. 101, Issue 10, Pages 2796-2807 Tamjid, E. (Elnaz) ; Simchi, A. (Abdolreza) ; Dunlop, John W. C ; Fratzl, Peter ; Bagheri, R ; Vossoughi, M ; Sharif University of Technology
      Abstract
      Controlling topographic features at all length scales is of great importance for the interaction of cells with tissue regenerative materials. We utilized an indirect three-dimensional printing method to fabricate polymeric scaffolds with pre-defined and controlled external and internal architecture that had an interconnected structure with macro- (400-500 μm) and micro- (∼25 μm) porosity. Polycaprolactone (PCL) was used as model system to study the kinetics of tissue growth within porous scaffolds. The surface of the scaffolds was decorated with TiO2 and bioactive glass (BG) nanoparticles to the better match to nanoarchitecture of extracellular matrix (ECM). Micrometric BG particles were... 

      An MILP Model for Optimal Placement of Sectionalizing Switches and Tie Lines in Distribution Networks with Complex Topologies

      , Article IEEE Transactions on Smart Grid ; Volume 12, Issue 6 , November , 2021 , Pages 4740-4751 ; 19493053 (ISSN) Jooshaki, M ; Karimi Arpanahi, S ; Lehtonen, M ; John Millar, R ; Fotuhi Firuzabad, M ; Sharif University of Technology

      Abstract
      Sectionalizing switches (SSs) and tie lines play essential roles in reducing the duration of customer interruptions in electricity distribution networks. The effectiveness of such assets is strongly influenced by their placement in the grid. Operation of SSs and tie lines is also inherently interdependent. Due to the structural complexities regarding the mathematical modeling of such dependencies, optimization of the planning and operation of switches and tie lines has typically required either leveraging heuristic and metaheuristic approaches or oversimplifying the network topology. To tackle such issues, this paper presents a computationally-efficient model for reliability-oriented...

      Abstract
      A readout box prototype for the CMS Hadron Forward calorimeter upgrade was built and tested in the CERN H2 beamline. The prototype was designed to enable simultaneous tests of different readout options for the four anode upgrade PMTs, new front-end electronics design and new cabling. The response of the PMTs with different readout options was uniform and the background response was minimal. Multi-channel readout options further enhanced the background elimination. Passing all the electronic, mechanical and physics tests, the readout box proved to be capable of providing the forward hadron calorimeter operational requirements in the upgrade era

      Abstract
      The safe, highly effective measles vaccine has been recommended globally since 1974, yet in 2017 there were more than 17 million cases of measles and 83,400 deaths in children under 5 years old, and more than 99% of both occurred in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs)1–4. Globally comparable, annual, local estimates of routine first-dose measles-containing vaccine (MCV1) coverage are critical for understanding geographically precise immunity patterns, progress towards the targets of the Global Vaccine Action Plan (GVAP), and high-risk areas amid disruptions to vaccination programmes caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)5–8.

      Abstract
      Anemia is a globally widespread condition in women and is associated with reduced economic productivity and increased mortality worldwide. Here we map annual 2000–2018 geospatial estimates of anemia prevalence in women of reproductive age (15–49 years) across 82 low- and middle-income countries (LMICs), stratify anemia by severity and aggregate results to policy-relevant administrative and national levels. Additionally, we provide subnational disparity analyses to provide a comprehensive overview of anemia prevalence inequalities within these countries and predict progress toward the World Health Organization’s Global Nutrition Target (WHO GNT) to reduce anemia by half by 2030. Our results...

      Abstract
      The safe, highly effective measles vaccine has been recommended globally since 1974, yet in 2017 there were more than 17 million cases of measles and 83,400 deaths in children under 5 years old, and more than 99% of both occurred in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs)1–4. Globally comparable, annual, local estimates of routine first-dose measles-containing vaccine (MCV1) coverage are critical for understanding geographically precise immunity patterns, progress towards the targets of the Global Vaccine Action Plan (GVAP), and high-risk areas amid disruptions to vaccination programmes caused by coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)5–8. Here we generated annual estimates of routine childhood...

      Abstract
      Background: While there is a long history of measuring death and disability from injuries, modern research methods must account for the wide spectrum of disability that can occur in an injury, and must provide estimates with sufficient demographic, geographical and temporal detail to be useful for policy makers. The Global Burden of Disease (GBD) 2017 study used methods to provide highly detailed estimates of global injury burden that meet these criteria. Methods: In this study, we report and discuss the methods used in GBD 2017 for injury morbidity and mortality burden estimation. In summary, these methods included estimating cause-specific mortality for every cause of injury, and then...

      Abstract
      Exclusive breastfeeding (EBF)—giving infants only breast-milk for the first 6 months of life—is a component of optimal breastfeeding practices effective in preventing child morbidity and mortality. EBF practices are known to vary by population and comparable subnational estimates of prevalence and progress across low- and middle-income countries (LMICs) are required for planning policy and interventions. Here we present a geospatial analysis of EBF prevalence estimates from 2000 to 2018 across 94 LMICs mapped to policy-relevant administrative units (for example, districts), quantify subnational inequalities and their changes over time, and estimate probabilities of meeting the World Health...
