From voids to filaments: environmental transformations of galaxies in the SDSS

We investigate the impact of filament and void environments on galaxies, looking for residual effects beyond the known relations with environment density. We quantified the host environment of galaxies as the distance to the spine of the nearest filament, and compared various galaxy properties within 12 bins of this distance. We considered galaxies up to 10 $h^{-1}$Mpc from filaments, i.e. deep inside voids. The filaments were defined by a point process (the Bisous model) from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey data release 10. In order to remove the dependence of galaxy properties on the environment density and redshift, we applied weighting to normalise the corresponding distributions of galaxy populations in each bin. After the normalisation with respect to environment density and redshift, several residual dependencies of galaxy properties still remain. Most notable is the trend of morphology transformations, resulting in a higher elliptical-to-spiral ratio while moving from voids towards filament spines, bringing along a corresponding increase in the $g-i$ colour index and a decrease in star formation rate. After separating elliptical and spiral subsamples, some of the colour index and star formation rate evolution still remains. The mentioned trends are characteristic only for galaxies brighter than about $M_{r} = -20$ mag. Unlike some other recent studies, we do not witness an increase in the galaxy stellar mass while approaching filaments. The detected transformations can be explained by an increase in the galaxy-galaxy merger rate and/or the cut-off of extragalactic gas supplies (starvation) near and inside filaments. Unlike voids, large-scale galaxy filaments are not a mere density enhancement, but have their own specific impact on the constituent galaxies, reducing the star formation rate and raising the chances of elliptical morphology also at a fixed environment density level.
Many faces of Born-Infeld theory

Born-Infeld theory is the non-linear generalization of Maxwell electrodynamics. It naturally arises as the low-energy effective action of open strings, and it is also part of the world-volume effective action of D-branes. The N=1 and N=2 supersymmetric generalizations of the Born-Infeld action are closely related to partial spontaneous breaking of rigid extended supersymmetry. We review some remarkable features of the Born-Infeld action and outline its supersymmetric generalizations in four dimensions. The non-abelian N=1 supersymmetric extension of the Born-Infeld theory and its N=1 supergravitational avatars are given in superspace.
FINANCIAL PERFORMANCE, INSTITUTIONAL OWNERSHIP, SIZE, AND FIRM VALUE : A STRUCTURAL EQUATION MODELING APPROACH

This study analyzed the effect of financial performance, institutional ownership, and firm size on firm value. This study used the partial least square structural equation modeling (PLS-SEM) analysis to examine which indicators best measure financial performance. This study employed panel data from Indonesia's 13 property and real estate sector companies. This study found that the return on assets ratio is the only indicator measuring financial performance. This study also found that financial performance positively affects firm value. On the other hand, institutional ownership affected the firm value negatively. In contrast, this study failed to prove any positive effect of firm size on firm value. This study indicated that investors tend to pay close attention to profitability as the primary consideration when investing in property and real estate companies' shares. Another implication of this research is that the significant institutional ownership in a company tends to make investors uninterested
Seismic Measurement of the Locations of the Base of Convection Zone and Helium Ionization Zone for Stars in the Kepler Seismic LEGACY Sample

Acoustic glitches are regions inside a star where the sound speed or its derivatives change abruptly. These leave a small characteristic oscillatory signature in the stellar oscillation frequencies. With the precision achieved by Kepler seismic data, it is now possible to extract these small amplitude oscillatory signatures, and infer the locations of the glitches. We perform glitch analysis for all the 66 stars in the Kepler seismic LEGACY sample to derive the locations of the base of the envelope convection zone (CZ) and the helium ionization zone. The signature from helium ionization zone is found to be robust for all stars in the sample, whereas the CZ signature is found to be weak and problematic, particularly for relatively massive stars with large errorbars on the oscillation frequencies. We demonstrate that the helium glitch signature can be used to constrain the properties of the helium ionization layers and the helium abundance.
Neoadjuvant chemotherapy in technically unresectable head and neck cancers: a retrospective audit

Background The data regarding the use of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in technically unresectable head and neck cancer (HNC) is limited and real-world studies are needed to look for the efficacy and toxicities of this approach. Patients and methods This is a retrospective study conducted in the Medical Oncology department of our hospital. All technically unresectable HNC patients who underwent neoadjuvant chemotherapy between May 2018 and May 2020 were included in this analysis. Patients received three-drug regimen docetaxel, cisplatin and 5-fluorouracil (DCF) regimen, two-drug regimens included docetaxel + cisplatin, paclitaxel + carboplatin both weekly and 3-weekly. The resectability assessment was done clinically and radiologically after completing three neoadjuvant cycles. Overall survival was calculated from the first day of chemotherapy to the date of last follow-up or date of death. Results A total of 119 patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy during the specified time. Response assessment showed partial response in 41.9% of patients with three-drug regimens and 37.5% of patients with other regimens. Out of 119 patients, 56 (47%) patients were offered radical intent therapy. Resectability was achieved in 32.3% of three-drug regimen patients and 26.1% of other patients. Surgery was feasible in 33 (27.7%) patients, and postoperative radiotherapy and concurrent chemotherapy were done in 30 patients (25.2%), and surgery with only postoperative radiotherapy was done in 3 patients (2.5%). Radical chemoradiotherapy was done in 23 patients (19.3%). The estimated median survival for patients who could undergo surgery was 18 months [95% confidence interval (CI), 14.9-21.0], and nonsurgical patients were 9 months (95% CI, 7.3–10.6) (p = 0.0001). Conclusion Our study shows that neoadjuvant chemotherapy in technically unresectable HNC patients can make the disease resectable in around one-third of the patients. The patients who could undergo surgery after neoadjuvant chemotherapy had significantly improved survival as compared to those who could not.
Bacteria on surfaces contacted during intraoral radiographic examinations

Objective: To determine the presence of bacteria by means of microbiological analysis on the surfaces contacted by the operator during the taking and processing of intraoral radiographs at different times of the day in the Oral Radiology Service of the UPCH. Materials and methods: Nine surfaces of the oral radiology service were sampled. The samples were taken at two times by the same investigator; at the beginning and the end of the activities in the service, the surfaces were swabbed with Trypticase Soy Broth (TSB). The samples were inoculated and incubated in three culture media (Plate Count Agar, Lamb’s Blood Agar and Cetrimide Agar). Then the respective Colony Forming Unit (CFU) count was performed and Gram staining was also performed. Results: A high concentration of bacteria (4180 CFU/mL) and fungi was found in the oral radiology service. Gram-positive cocci were the most frequently found microorganisms and gram-negative bacilli were less frequently found. Conclusions: There is a high contamination of bacteria in the oral radiology service. When the activities are completed, the number of bacteria decreases, but the variety of bacteria increases.
Global analysis of inclusive B decays

In light of the large amount of new experimental data, we revisit the determination of |V{sub cb}| and m{sub b} from inclusive semileptonic and radiative B decays. We study shape variables to order {Lambda}{sub QCD}{sup 3}/m{sub b}{sup 3} and {alpha}{sub s}{sup 2}{beta}{sub 0}, and include the order {alpha}{sub s} {Lambda}{sub QCD}/m{sub b} correction to the hadron mass spectrum in semileptonic decay, which improves the agreement with the data. We focus on the 1S and kinetic mass schemes for the b quark, with and without expanding m{sub b}-m{sub c} in HQET. We perform fits to all available data from BABAR, BELLE, CDF, CLEO, and DELPHI, discuss the theoretical uncertainties, and compare with earlier results. We find |V{sub cb}| = (41.9 {+-} 0.6 {+-} 0.1{sub {tau}{sub B}}) x 10{sup -3} and m{sub b}{sup 1S} = 4.68 {+-} 0.04GeV, including our estimate of the theoretical uncertainty in the fit.
Joint Inversion in Hydrogeophysics and Near‐Surface Geophysics

The near-surface environment is often too complex to enable inference of hydrological and environmental variables using one geophysical data type alone. Joint inversion and coupled inverse modeling involving numerical flow- and transport simulators have, in the last decade, played important roles in pushing applications towards increasingly challenging targets. Joint inversion of geophysical data that is based on structural constraints is often favored over model coupling based on explicit petrophysical relationships. More specifically, cross-gradient joint inversion has been applied to a wide range of near-surface applications and geophysical data types. To infer hydrological subsurface properties, the most appropriate approach is often to use temporal changes in geophysical data that can be related to hydrological state variables. This allows using geophysical data as indirect hydrological observables, while the coupling with a flow- and transport simulator ensures physical consistency. Future research avenues include investigating the validity of different coupling strategies at various scales, the spatial statistics of near-surface petrophysical relationships, the influence of the model conceptualization, fully probabilistic joint inversions, and how to include complex prior information in the joint inversion.
Global Transcriptome Analyses of Cellular and Viral mRNAs during HAdV-C5 Infection Highlight New Aspects of Viral mRNA Biogenesis and Cytoplasmic Viral mRNA Accumulations

It is well established that human adenoviruses such as species C, types 2 and 5 (HAdV-C2 and HAdV-C5), induce a nearly complete shutoff of host-cell protein synthesis in the infected cell, simultaneously directing very efficient production of viral proteins. Such preferential expression of viral over cellular genes is thought to be controlled by selective nucleocytoplasmic export and translation of viral mRNA. While detailed knowledge of the regulatory mechanisms responsible for the translation of viral mRNA is available, the viral or cellular mechanisms of mRNA biogenesis are not completely understood. To identify parameters that control the differential export of viral and cellular mRNAs, we performed global transcriptome analyses (RNAseq) and monitored temporal nucleocytoplasmic partitioning of viral and cellular mRNAs during HAdV-C5 infection of A549 cells. Our analyses confirmed previously reported features of the viral mRNA expression program, as a clear shift in viral early to late mRNA accumulation was observed upon transition from the early to the late phase of viral replication. The progression into the late phase of infection, however, did not result in abrogation of cellular mRNA export; rather, viral late mRNAs outnumbered viral early and most cellular mRNAs by several orders of magnitude during the late phase, revealing that viral late mRNAs are not selectively exported but outcompete cellular mRNA biogenesis.
Large irreversibility field in nanoscale C-doped MgB2/Fe tape conductors

We investigated the effect of nanoscale C doping on the critical current density Jc and irreversibility field Birr of Fe-sheathed MgB2 tapes prepared by the in situ powder-in-tube method. The tapes were heat treated at 600–950 °C for 1 h. Higher values of Jc and Birr were seen for 5 at. % C-doped MgB2 tapes at higher sintering temperatures. The C-doped samples sintered at 950 °C showed the highest Birr, for example at 4.2 K the Birr reached 22.9 T. In particular, at 20 K, Birr for the C-doped tape achieved 9 T, which is comparable to the upper critical field of the commercial NbTi at 4.2 K. This role of nanosized C particles can be very beneficial in the fabrication of MgB2 tapes for magnetic resonance imaging applications at 20 K.
CLUSTERS, GROUPS, AND FILAMENTS IN THE CHANDRA DEEP FIELD–SOUTH UP TO REDSHIFT 1

We present a comprehensive structure detection analysis of the 0.3 deg2 area of the MUSYC-ACES field, which covers the Chandra Deep Field–South (CDFS). Using a density-based clustering algorithm on the MUSYC and ACES photometric and spectroscopic catalogs, we find 62 overdense regions up to redshifts of 1, including clusters, groups, and filaments. We also present the detection of a relatively small void of ∼10 Mpc2 at z ∼ 0.53. All structures are confirmed using the DBSCAN method, including the detection of nine structures previously reported in the literature. We present a catalog of all structures present, including their central position, mean redshift, velocity dispersions, and classification based on their morphological and spectroscopic distributions. In particular, we find 13 galaxy clusters and 6 large groups/small clusters. Comparison of these massive structures with published XMM-Newton imaging (where available) shows that 80% of these structures are associated with diffuse, soft-band (0.4–1 keV) X-ray emission, including 90% of all objects classified as clusters. The presence of soft-band X-ray emission in these massive structures (M200 ⩾ 4.9 × 1013 M☉) provides a strong independent confirmation of our methodology and classification scheme. In the closest two clusters identified (z < 0.13) high-quality optical imaging from the Deep2c field of the Garching–Bonn Deep Survey reveals the cD galaxies and demonstrates that they sit at the center of the detected X-ray emission. Nearly 60% of the clusters, groups, and filaments are detected in the known enhanced density regions of the CDFS at z ≃ 0.13, 0.52, 0.68, and 0.73. Additionally, all of the clusters, bar the most distant, are found in these overdense redshift regions. Many of the clusters and groups exhibit signs of ongoing formation seen in their velocity distributions, position within the detected cosmic web, and in one case through the presence of tidally disrupted central galaxies exhibiting trails of stars. These results all provide strong support for hierarchical structure formation up to redshifts of 1.
Constant-roll inflation: Confrontation with recent observational data

The previously proposed class of phenomenological inflationary models in which the assumption of inflaton slow-roll is replaced by the more general, constant-roll condition is compared with the most recent cosmological observational data, mainly the Planck ones. Models in this two-parametric class which remain viable appear to be close to the slow-roll ones, and their inflaton potentials are close to (but still different from) that of the natural inflation model. The permitted regions for the two model parameters are presented.
Study of the molecular gas towards the N11 region in the Large Magellanic Cloud

We study three subregions in the HII region N11 which is located at the northeast side of the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). We used $^{12}$CO and $^{13}$CO J=3--2 data observed with the Atacama Submillimeter Telescope Experiment (ASTE) with an angular and spectral resolution of 22$^{\prime\prime}$ and 0.11 km s$^{-1}$ respectively. From the $^{12}$CO J=3--2 and $^{13}$CO J=3--2 integrated maps we estimated, assuming local thermodynamic equilibrium (LTE), masses in about $10^4$ M$_\odot$ for the molecular clouds associated with each subregion. Additionally, from the mentioned maps we study the $^{12}$CO /$^{13}$CO integrated ratios for each subregion, obtaining values between 8 and 10.
Domestic Tourists' Revisit Intention: The Role of Novelty and Destination Image at Hidden Canyon Beji Guwang

The uniqueness of natural tourism and new tourist experiences at Hidden Canyon Beji Guwang can attract tourists to visit this destination. The novelty aspect of the destination allows new experiences for tourists to stimulate their beliefs about the destination and influence the decision-making process. In addition, the destination's image is an essential factor that influences the intention of returning tourists. This study aims to analyze the effect of novelty and destination image on the intention to revisit domestic tourists at Hidden Canyon Beji Guwang. This research uses quantitative methods. Data from the online questionnaire survey was collected from 100 domestic tourists who had visited Hidden Canyon Beji Guwang from 2018 to 2021. The data analysis technique used was multiple regression analysis. Data were analyzed using SPSS Version 25.0. The test results show that the novelty of Hidden Canyon Beji Guwang partially has a positive and significant effect on the intention to revisit domestic tourists. The destination's image has a positive and significant effect on the intention to revisit domestic tourists at Hidden Canyon Beji Guwang. The novelty and the destination's image simultaneously have a positive and significant effect on the intention to revisit domestic tourists at Hidden Canyon Beji Guwang.
A round table discussion: clinical landscape of trastuzumab deruxtecan in breast cancer: a retrospective and prospective view

: The treatment landscape of breast cancer has been greatly changed by the innovative targeting therapies. Antibody-drug conjugates (ADCs) with a representative of trastuzumab deruxtecan (T-DXd) are the most successful ones. The revolutionary next-generation design of ADC transformed to the unprecedented clinical data. The DESTINY-BREAST01 and DESTINY-BREAST03 trials have changed the standard of care for HER2-positve metastatic breast cancer (MBC). At the same time the clinical data of T-DXd in HER2-postive patients with brain metastasis (BM) is numerously gaining and challenging the current treatment concept for central nerve system (CNS) involved disease. The DESTINY-BREAST series trials have quickly expanded to first-line (1L) and early setting of breast cancer. The newly reported positive result of DESTINY-BREAST04 trial has also opening the door of human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-low era. The breast cancer experts are facing a world of massive data and rapidly changing. Therefore, round table discussion meeting is a great way to share the information and options of among oncologists. This time, the breast cancer experts in China gathered to discuss the important clinical advances of T-DXd and its impact to clinical practice. The meeting minutes were recorded and organized as the review article. This would provide insights to better understanding of the current data and shape the further research directions of breast cancer
Seismic sensitivity of Normal-mode Coupling to Lorentz stresses in the Sun

Understanding the governing mechanism of solar magnetism remains an outstanding challenge in astrophysics. Seismology is the most compelling technique with which to infer the internal properties of the Sun and stars. Waves in the Sun, nominally acoustic, are sensitive to the emergence and cyclical strengthening of magnetic field, evidenced by measured changes in resonant oscillation frequencies that are correlated with the solar cycle. The inference of internal Lorentz stresses from these measurements has the potential to significantly advance our appreciation of the dynamo. Indeed, seismological inverse theory for the Sun is well understood for perturbations in composition, thermal structure and flows but, is not fully developed for magnetism, owing to the complexity of the ideal magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equation. Invoking first-Born perturbation theory to characterize departures from spherically symmetric hydrostatic models of the Sun and applying the notation of generalized spherical harmonics, we calculate sensitivity functions of seismic measurements to the general time-varying Lorentz stress tensor. We find that eigenstates of isotropic (i.e. acoustic only) background models are dominantly sensitive to isotropic deviations in the stress tensor and much more weakly so to anisotropic stresses (and therefore challenging to infer). The apple cannot fall far from the tree.
THE STAR CLUSTER SYSTEM IN THE NEARBY STARBURST GALAXY M82

We present a photometric study of star clusters in the nearby starburst galaxy M82 based on the UBVI-, YJ- and H-band Hubble Space Telescope images. We find 1105 star clusters with V < 23 mag. Of those, 1070 are located in the disk region, while 35 star clusters are in the halo region. The star clusters in the disk are composed of a dominant blue population with a color peak at (B − V)0 ≈ 0.45, and a weaker red population. The luminosity function of the disk clusters shows a power-law distribution with a power-law index α = −2.04 ± 0.03, and the scale height of their distribution is hz = 9. ″64 ± 0. ″40 (164 ± 7 pc), similar to that of the stellar thin disk of M82. We have derived the ages of ∼630 star clusters using the spectral energy distribution fit method by comparing UBVI(YJ)H-band photometric data with the simple stellar population models. The age distribution of the disk clusters shows that the most dominant cluster population has ages ranging from 100 Myr to 1 Gyr, with a peak at about 500 Myr. This suggests that M82 has undergone a disk-wide star formation about 500 Myr ago, probably through the interaction with M81. The brightest star clusters in the nuclear region are much brighter than those in other regions, indicating that more massive star clusters are formed in the denser environments. On the other hand, the colors of the halo clusters are similar to those of globular clusters in the Milky Way, and their ages are estimated to be older than 1 Gyr. These are probably genuine old globular clusters in M82.
