Blue-Emitting K<sub>2</sub>Al<sub>2</sub>B<sub>2</sub>O<sub>7</sub>:Eu<sup>2+</sup> Phosphor with High Thermal Stability and High Color Purity for Near-UV-Pumped White Light-Emitting Diodes

Novel blue-emitting K2Al2B2O7:Eu(2+) (KAB:Eu(2+)) phosphor was synthesized by solid state reaction. The crystal structural and photoluminescence (PL) properties of KAB:Eu(2+) phosphor, as well as its thermal properties of the photoluminescence, were investigated. The KAB:Eu(2+) phosphor exhibits broad excitation spectra ranging from 230 to 420 nm, and an intense asymmetric blue emission band centered at 450 nm under λex = 325 nm. Two different Eu(2+) emission centers in KAB:Eu(2+) phosphor were confirmed via their fluorescence decay lifetimes. The optimal concentration of Eu(2+) ions in K2-xEuxAl2B2O7 was determined to be x = 0.04 (2 mol %), and the corresponding concentration quenching mechanism was verified to be the electric dipole-dipole interactions. The PL intensity of the nonoptimized KAB:0.04Eu(2+) phosphor was measured to be ∼58% that of the commercial blue-emitting BaMgAl10O17:Eu(2+) phosphor, and this phosphor has high color purity with the CIE coordinate (0.147, 0.051). When heated up to 150 °C, the KAB:0.04Eu(2+) phosphor still has 82% of the initial PL intensity at room temperature, indicating its high thermal stability. These results suggest that the KAB:Eu(2+) is a promising candidate as a blue-emitting n-UV convertible phosphor for application in white light emitting diodes.
Anxiety Disorders - Assessment and Management in General Practice

Anxiety is a normal physiological response to a threat. Anxiety disorders occur when this normal physiological response is associated with high levels of autonomic arousal, erroneous cognitions and dysfunctional coping strategies. Anxiety disorders are highly prevalent and present commonly to general practice. Anxiety disorders are often comorbid with other psychiatric and medical disorders and may be associated with significant morbidity.This article describes the diagnosis, assessment and management of anxiety disorders in the general practice setting.Assessment in patients presenting with anxiety symptoms involves excluding a medical cause, identifying features of specific anxiety disorders as well as other coexisting psychiatric disorders, and assessing the degree of distress. Management options include psychoeducation, psychological treatments (particularly cognitive behaviour therapy) and pharmacological treatments. Patients with a diagnosis of an anxiety disorder can access Medicare funded psychological care under a number of Australian government initiatives. Selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors and serotonin norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors are the first line pharmacological agents used to treat anxiety disorders. Regular review is vital to monitor for clinical improvement and more complex presentations may require specialist psychological or psychiatric referral.
Method for operating a user memory designed a non-volatile write-read memory, and arrangement for implementing the method

A method for operating a user memory (ASP) which is designed as a non-volatile write-read memory and is provided with a control memory (KS) which records the number of erase operations performed at the user memory (ASP), includes the features that prior to each erase operation, a marker is stored in an empty memory location of the control memory (KS), and so that all erase operations are inhibited without such prior storage of the marker, and an apparatus for carrying out the method.
Exhaustion-Resistant car-t cells for the treatment of solid tumours

Adoptive transfer of T-cells collected from patient’s blood and engineered to express chimeric antigen receptors (CARs) has produced unprecedented clinical responses in patients with cancer. CAR-T cells targeting CD19 were recently approved by the US food and drug administration (FDA) and the European Commission (EC) for the treatment of leukemia and lymphoma, heralding a new era for cancer treatment. However, despite the stunning results of CAR-T cells in patients with hematologic malignancies, results with CAR-T cells in patients with solid tumors are far from expected. Although CAR-T cells are able to infiltrate solid tumors and exert antigen directed activity, observed responses in patients with solid tumors have been minor and transient. But what are the mechanisms behind the poor T-cell activity in solid tumors? Are CAR-T cells susceptible to dysfunction in a similar way as the endogenous tumor-specific T cells that fail to eliminate the tumors in treatment-naïve cancer patients? 
My central hypothesis is that CAR-T cells become exhausted in the tumor microenvironment mainly due to continuous antigen encounter, and that this process can be prevented or delayed. My general aim for this project is to enhance the persistence and function of CAR-T cells by overcoming T-cell dysfunction while promoting T-cell stemness. By using animal models and a combination of innovative technologies, including next-generation sequencing and genome editing I will: 1) elucidate the T-cell intrinsic mechanisms by which CAR-T cells become unresponsive to solid tumors, 2) design new approaches to enable infused T cells to overcome dysfunction and persist within the tumor microenvironment.

Laboratory-scale Experiment and Model Calculation on the Washout Mechanism of Asian Dust Particles

In this study, an investigation was conducted to assess the washout mechanism of Asian dust particles through both laboratory-scale experiment and model calculation. To artificially simulate Asian dust particle, CaCO₃ particles were generated inside an experimental chamber. They were then scavenged by the artificial rain drops. The abundant CaCO₃ particles scavenged on a rain drop were successively identified by SEM observation. The concentrations of Ca in residual CaCO₃ particles on individual droplet were quantified by PIXE analysis. There was a tendency toward a high accumulation of Ca on a relatively small drop (e.g., .1.0 mm diameter). It is thus suggested that smaller rain drops can effectively scavenge a significant amount of Asian dust particles in ambient atmosphere. The numerical estimation can account for 92.1% and 83.2% of Ca that were measured in small (.1.0 mm diameter) and large (.2.0 mm diameter) size drops, respectively.

DEBT STRUCTURE FOR MALAYSIAN CONSTRUCTION COMPANIES: EVIDENCE FROM PANEL DATA ANALYSIS

The main objective of this paper is to examine whether firm’s size, growth opportunity, and firm’s reputation affect the debt level (leverage) of the construction companies in Malaysia. The study uses the data from ten selected Malaysia’s construction companies for the period from 2001 until 2008. Using the panel data technique, the estimation results show that size of construction companies has a strong significant positive relationship to the firm’s leverage. The finding is consistent with the previous findings that firm’s size adds huge information in explaining the level of debt. The results also suggest that company’s leverage is positively affected by firm’s reputation. On the other hand, growth opportunity has inverse relationship with leverage, indicating that high leverage would retard the growth of firms.
Optical fibre dose imaging for adaptive brachytherapy

ORIGIN aims to deliver more effective, photonics-enabled, brachytherapy for cancer treatment through advanced real-time radiation dose imaging and source localisation. This will be achieved by the development of a new optical fibre based sensor system to support diagnostics-driven therapy through enhanced adaptive brachytherapy. A 16-point optical fibre sensors system will be developed, for Low Dose Rate (LDR) and High Dose Rate (HDR) Brachytherapy, with sensitivity of 150 counts/Gy for LDR- and 2500 counts/mGy for HDR- BT alongside a dedicated data acquisition system providing a dose mapping system with a spatial resolution of 0.5mm (HDR) and 3mm (LDR) and time resolution of 0.1s (HDR) and 0.5s (LDR), with 5% uncertainty. This is a 50% improvement in uncertainty over existing systems. Further interrogation of the optical signal will provide real-time monitoring of the radiation source location during treatment. The ORIGIN system will be integrated into existing clinical brachytherapy treatment planning and delivery systems to confirm that the dose prescribed to the tumour is achieved, whilst ensuring the dose to organs at risk (OARs) is within acceptable limits. This will provide for optimised dose-led, patient-oriented, personalised treatment plans leading to improved patient outcomes and prevention of treatment errors, with the potential to reduce the overall risk of treatment error by 55%. The optical fibre radiation dosimeters will be further optimised for improved optical signal collection efficiency, higher signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and repeatable high volume fabrication. Taking manufacturability into consideration from the outset will ensure that ORIGIN establishes Europe at the fore of brachytherapy system development and photonics manufacturing.
O uso da horta escolar no ensino fundamental I: um estudo bibliométrico 

The use of school gardens has a history in early childhood education around the world.In the last decades, international and national institutions, as well as several researchers, have strongly encouraged the use of school gardens, in order to stimulate the construction of knowledge about nutritional and environmental education.Given the growing interest in the subject, the objective of this research was to carry out a bibliometric study with the intention of quantifying and qualifying the scientific studies published in the last 14 years, which are based on the use of the school garden as a didactic tool for teaching in basic education.A bibliometric study of scientific articles was carried out on the Capes journal Portal, using the keywords, "horta escolar" and "school garden", published in the last 14 years.The data were grouped into distribution and percentage graphs, according to the year of publication, authorship, pedagogical purposes (nutritional or environmental education and other pedagogical purposes), and school level of the studies.An experience report was also carried out to discuss the importance and feasibility of school gardens.A total of 125 articles were found.Of these, 22 articles (18% of the total) used the keyword "horta escolar" and 103 articles (82% of the total) used the keyword "school garden".It was observed that, of the total number of articles found, 50% were addressed to Elementary School I, 39% corresponded to works focused on other levels of basic education and 11% had no identification of the school level at which the research was carried out.The qualitative approach showed that the use of the school garden has a great plasticity of pedagogical approaches in the works consulted.These approaches involve nutritional education (36% "school garden" x 37% "horta escolar"), environmental education (17% "school garden" x 40% "horta escolar") and other pedagogical purposes (47% "school garden" x 23% "horta escolar").Many works and also the experience report demonstrate the need for partnerships between schools, public agents, family and community for the sustainability of school gardens.The approaches found in the works mainly involve nutritional education and environmental education, mainly in the works of Brazilian authors.Of these, many works focus on encouraging family agriculture and ecology.Other didactic purposes for using the school gardens were: literacy, literature, personal relationships, arts, mathematics, topics in natural science, chemistry, language learning, culture, history and geography.In developed countries where the school garden culture is already more present and linked to the school curriculum, the parameters for evaluating the effectiveness, integration and sustainability of school gardens are also studied by several researchers.Finally, works with subjects on architecture, history of school gardens and the use of technological tools to measure the integration of school gardens still appeared.
Unlocking the community energy potential to support the market uptake of bioenergy heating technologies

While community energy is about to play a huge role for the future energy transition, bioenergy has a very slow development in decentralised energy production. BECoop’s ambition is to foster a broad deployment of bioenergy technologies in the heating sector (across Europe by providing all the necessary conditions and support tools for unlocking the underlying market potential of community bioenergy.  By using BECoop support services and tools, energy communities and authorities will be able to (i) mobilize citizens around existing or new community bioenergy initiatives, (ii) boost local bioenergy demand by improving its image and social acceptance, and (iii) increase feasibility of their endeavors by identifying suitable technical, business and financial solutions, as well as by pooling expertise and partnerships from the wider EU bioenergy ecosystem.  In order to showcase and build trust to our approach, we pilot our to a complementary set of 4 cases across Europe, targeting existing energy communities seeking to include bioenergy heating projects, and local/national authorities aiming at initiating novel bioenergy community structures in support of their clean energy transition goals.  BECoop moves beyond local challenges as we replicate our concept to more EU cases, thus, improving the robustness and attractiveness of community bioenergy investments. BECoop will also create links between the international Bioenergy Community, increase its audience, and foster new partnerships. Relevant policy and regulatory structures will be empowered with empirical evidence indicating ways to transfer the community energy approach in bioenergy and heating.  Finally, the project is backed by a multidisciplinary consortium covering all relevant stakeholders and knowledge requirements. It also includes key stakeholders that are considered natural recipients of its results (existing energy communities, RESCoop Federations and local/national authorities).

Conditional fault-tolerant cycles in folded hypercubes with faulty elements

ABSTRACT As an attractive variation of the hypercubes Q n , n -dimensional folded hypercube F Q n can be obtained by adding 2 n1 complementary edges between the vertices of hypercube. Let F F v (respectively,F F e ) denotes the set of faulty vertices (respectively, faulty edges) in an n -dimensional folded hypercube. In this paper, we prove that F QFF FF nve  contains a fault-free cycle of length at least 2 n  F Fv if F Q n satisfies both of the constraints that A1 Aeach vertex in F Q n is incident to at least two fault-free edges A2 A FF FF n ev  d23, when n t 4 . Keywords: Folded hypercubes, faulty elements , fault tolerance, cycle embedding. 1. INTRODUCTION As an interconnection network topology in multi-processor system, hypercubes structure has been a household word in practical applications for its attractive properties [1]. On e of the variations of hypercubes proposed by El-Amawy and Latifi [2] is the folded hypercube which can be established by adding an edge to every pair of vertices with complementary addresses. Apart from the folded hypercube, there are many variations of the hypercube being put forward [3,4], which makes the portability of an algorithm across these networks to be considerable importance. A guest nework G can be embedded into a host network H means that the algorithms on the guest can be simulated on the host systematically. Embedding is a form of a one-to one mapping f , from the vertices set in G into that in H so that an edge of G corresponds to a path of H under f . Paths and cycles are two of the popular networks for parallel computation E research men are obsessed with the embedding of them into different networks [5-11]. However, vertices or edges faults may develop when the network is in use, hence, it makes the study on faulty networks to be practical significance. Two models proposed by the scholars are used to embed fault-tolerant cycles. One is the standard fault model, which assumes that the distribution of the faulty elements are free to any restrictions, the other is the conditional fault model, which assumes that each ve rtex of the faulty networks is connected to at least two fault-free edges. Results of the folded hypercube in this research field is quite a lot [6-10], for instance.Fu [7] solved the problem of how to embed a fault-free cycle of length at least 22
Multiscale modelling of saliva secretion

We review a multiscale model of saliva secretion, describing in brief how the model is constructed and what we have so far learned from it. The model begins at the level of inositol trisphosphate receptors (IPR), and proceeds through the cellular level (with a model of acinar cell calcium dynamics) to the multicellular level (with a model of the acinus), finally to a model of a saliva production unit that includes an acinus and associated duct. The model at the level of the entire salivary gland is not yet completed. Particular results from the model so far include (i) the importance of modal behaviour of IPR, (ii) the relative unimportance of Ca(2+) oscillation frequency as a controller of saliva secretion, (iii) the need for the periodic Ca(2+) waves to be as fast as possible in order to maximise water transport, (iv) the presence of functional K(+) channels in the apical membrane increases saliva secretion, (v) the relative unimportance of acinar spatial structure for isotonic water transport, (vi) the prediction that duct cells are highly depolarised, (vii) the prediction that the secondary saliva takes at least 1mm (from the acinus) to reach ionic equilibrium. We end with a brief discussion of future directions for the model, both in construction and in the study of scientific questions.
Sequencing Analysis of the ATOH7 Gene in Individuals with Optic Nerve Hypoplasia

The Atonal Homolog 7 (ATOH7) gene has been implicated in association studies with optic nerve head diameter size. Hence, we screened optic nerve hypoplasia (ONH) patient DNA samples from Australia, France, and the United States for sequence variants in theATOH7 gene using Sanger sequencing.Sanger sequencing of theATOH7 gene was performed on 34 affected individual DNA samples. Sequencing was also carried out in three unaffected family members to confirm segregation of identified single nucleotide variations.Seven sequence variations were identified in ATOH7. No disease-causing sequence changes in the ATOH7 gene was discovered in the ONH patient samples.Mutations within the ATOH7 gene are not implicated in the pathogenesis of optic nerve hypoplasia in our patient cohort.
