Characterizing the WASP-4 System with TESS and Radial Velocity Data: Constraints on the Cause of the Hot Jupiter’s Changing Orbit and Evidence of an Outer Planet
Authors: Turner Jake D. , Flagg Laura , Ridden-Harper Andrew , Jayawardhana Ray
Published: May 2022

Orbital dynamics provide valuable insights into the evolution and diversity of exoplanetary systems. Currently, only one hot Jupiter, WASP-12b, is confirmed to have a decaying orbit. Another, WASP-4b, exhibits hints of a changing orbital period that could be caused by orbital decay, apsidal precession, or the acceleration of the system toward the Earth. We have analyzed all data sectors from NASA’s Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite together with all radial velocity (RV) and transit data in the literature to characterize WASP-4b’s orbit. Our analysis shows that the full RV data set is consistent with no acceleration toward the Earth. Instead, we find evidence of a possible additional planet in the WASP-4 system, with an orbital period of ∼7000 days and

. Additionally, we find that the transit timing variations of all of the WASP-4b transits cannot be explained by the second planet but can be explained with either a decaying orbit or apsidal precession, with a slight preference for orbital decay. Assuming the decay model is correct, we find an updated period of 1.338231587 ± 0.000000022 days, a decay rate of −7.33 ± 0.71 ms yr−1, and an orbital decay timescale of

Published: May 2022

Ground-based gravitational-wave detectors like Cosmic Explorer (CE) can be tuned to improve their sensitivity at high or low frequencies by tuning the response of the signal extraction cavity. Enhanced sensitivity above 2 kHz enables measurements of the post-merger gravitational-wave spectrum from binary neutron star mergers, which depends critically on the unknown equation of state of hot, ultra-dense matter. Improved sensitivity below 500 Hz favors precision tests of extreme gravity with black hole ringdown signals and improves the detection prospects while facilitating an improved measurement of source properties for compact binary inspirals at cosmological distances. At intermediate frequencies, a more sensitive detector can better measure the tidal properties of neutron stars. We present and characterize the performance of tuned CE configurations that are designed to optimize detections across different astrophysical source populations. These tuning options give CE the flexibility to target a diverse set of science goals with the same detector infrastructure. We find that a 40 km CE detector outperforms a 20 km in all key science goals other than access to post-merger physics. This suggests that CE should include at least one 40 km facility.
Confirmation of Tylototriton ziegleri Nishikawa, Matsui & Nguyen, 2013 in China, with discussion on the relationship between T. verrucosus Anderson, 1871 and T. panwaensis Grismer, Wood, Quah, Thura, Espinoza & Murdoch, 2019 (Caudata, Salamandridae)

Published: May 2022

The distribution of the Ziegler’s Crocodile Newt Tylototriton ziegleri Nishikawa, Matsui & Nguyen, 2013 in China has been controversial. This species was originally recorded uncertainly from Guangxi Autonomous Region, China. Subsequently, this species was recorded from Yunnan and Guangdong provinces, China. Thereafter, the record from Guangdong was denied and the record from Yunnan was questioned.

Two specimens of Tylototriton Anderson, 1871 were collected from Wenshan Prefecture, Yunnan Province, China, in 2021. Phylogenetically, the sequences of these two specimens clustered with the sequences of T. ziegleri (including the holotype) from its type locality with strong support, and morphologically agree well with the original description of T. ziegleri. We confirm the record of T. ziegleri in China and present detailed collection site and morphological description of the specimens from China. In addition, we found that T. panwaensis Grismer, Wood, Quah, Thura, Espinoza & Murdoch, 2019 may be the synonym of T. verrucosus Anderson, 1871. We discussed the relationship between T. verrucosus and T. panwaensis.
Biodiversity checklists for Bhutan
Authors: Gyeltshen Choki , Prasad Karunya
Published: May 2022

The species checklists for Bhutan published in the Global Biodiversity Information Facility (GBIF) were originally collated for the publication ‘Biodiversity Statistics of Bhutan 2017, A Preliminary Baseline’ (BSB 2017). This document was published in 2019 and is the first comprehensive overview of Bhutan's species richness, recording more than 11,000 species across all five kingdoms. Collation of biodiversity checklists has been limited in Bhutan. Thus, this paper and its associated data provide an overview of all species from the kingdoms Plantae, Animalia, Fungi, Chromista and Eubacteria in the country that have been recorded in scientific publications.

The checklists showcase 11,175 species from the kingdoms Plantae, Animalia, Fungi, Chromista and Eubacteria. Research conducted into identifying species from the kingdoms Protista and Archaebacteria revealed zero records. These checklists include at least 33 species new to science and 566 species new to Bhutan, discovered between 2009 and 2017. Unidentified species are not taken into account in this publication.
Study of intestinal microbial flora of local chickens to investigate the effect of probiotics Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus coagulans on the expression of ctxM and luxS pathogenic genes in isolates of Escherichia coli
Authors: Elahianfiroz Zahra , Baseri Salehi Majid , Ghane Masood
Published: May 2022

Background and objective: Antibiotics are widely used worldwide. However, due to the emergence of antibiotic resistance in a wide range of microorganisms, their use worldwide has failed. Probiotics are suggested as complementary and alternative medicine. The present study aimed to investigate the effects of probiotics isolated from local chickens on the expression of luxS and ctxM genes in resistant Escherichia coli.

Materials and methods: 300 fecal samples were taken from patients referring to Imam Khomeini Hospital in Tehran during May–September 2016 and Escherichia coli samples were isolated using specific culture media and biochemical tests and then the presence of luxS and ctxM genes were identified using PCR with specific primers. In order to extract the probiotics forming spores, the intestinal contents of 10 poultry that had not used any antibiotics and probiotics were cultured, isolated, and identified using biochemical and PCR methods. Commercial strains of Bacillus subtilis and Bacillus coagulans were purchased to compare their effects with native bacteria. These strains were then co-cultured with resistant Escherichia coli strains containing ctxM and luxS genes. Real-time PCR was used to evaluate the effect of these probiotics on gene expression

Results: The results indicated that 40 isolates (7.5%) of Escherichia coli were obtained from the 300 fecal samples. Thirteen samples (32.5%) were outpatients and 27 (67.5%) were inpatients. All isolates were isolated from men and women aged 21–62. Four Escherichia coli strains were isolated from patients carrying ctxM and luxS genes. Isolation of Bacillus coagulans and Bacillus subtilis from samples was confirmed by biochemical and molecular experiments. The commercial and native strains of Bacillus coagulans reduced the expression of the luxS and ctxM genes by 3.60, 3.30, 1.58, and 2.70 times respectively. Also, the commercial and native strains of Bacillus subtilis decreased the expression of the luxS and ctxM genes by 1.37, 1.10, 2.20, and 2.80 times respectively. The results of statistical analysis showed a significant relationship between the presence of native and commercial probiotics in culture and reduced expression of ctxM and luxS genes.

Conclusion: According to the results, supplements of Bacillus coagulans and Bacillus subtilis increase the effect of antibiotics resistance in Escherichia coli by reducing the expression of resistance genes.

Authors: Biswas Raju , Ghosh Sandip Sankar
Published: May 2022

The aim of the present study was to find out the effect of varied plyometric training (land plyometric training, aqua plyometric training and weighted vest aqua-plyometric training) on anaerobic power of school athletes. A total of forty eight (n= 48) district level school athletes were randomly selected. All the subjects were divided into four equal groups: i) land plyometric training group (n=12), ii) aqua plyometric training group (n=12), iii) aqua-plyometric training with weighted vest group (n=12) and iv) control group (n=12). The varied plyometric training was intervened for fourteen weeks in the respective training groups. In the present study, anaerobic power was considered as the dependent variable, and it was measured by Margaria-Kalamen power test. To draw statistical inferences on anaerobic power among the groups in pre and post intervention conditions, ANCOVA was used, followed by Tukey’s LSD post-hoc test. The significance of the means was tested at the 0.05 level. Different plyometric training groups improved significantly with respect to the control group in anaerobic power. Therefore, various plyometric training was found as an effective means for developing anaerobic power. A significant difference was also observed between the aqua-plyometric training with weighted vest group and land plyometric training group in anaerobic power. However, rest of the experimental groups didn’t differ significantly. Aqua-plyometric training with weighted vest is a more effective training method than land plyometric training for improving the anaerobic power of the school athletes.

The purpose of this paper is to explore the key determinants of online ad avoidance where the impact of goal impediment (GI), privacy concern (PC), ad irritation (AI), negative experience (NE), and retargeting (RI) on online ad avoidance (OAA) is explored. Online advertising avoidance can be an action or steps taken by viewers while they are surfing the internet. It is identified as a significant challenge for digital advertising. Literature has implications that goal impediment, privacy concern, ad irritation, and negative experience to be the key determinants of ad avoidance. There are implications that GI, PC, and AI are having an impact on NE and NE has an impact on OAA. Therefore, NE is identified as a mediator. Further RT is identified in the literature as having a moderating role between NE and OAA. To examine the impact of the key determinants and the OAA, 12 hypotheses were developed and a quantitative approach was used with a structured questionnaire for primary data collection. A convenient sample of 300 was collected from the Western province. In terms of measuring the relationships between variables, the researcher employed the Partial Least Square (PLS) structural equation modeling with SPSS and Smart PLS tools. All the direct hypotheses and the mediating hypotheses were supported by the data. Moderating the impact of RT was not supported. The findings of the study reveal valuable implications for online advertisers to consider to improve their reachability and viewership.

The antagonistic effect of AtCCR4a upon drought or heat stress conditions
Authors:   , Ponte Lucas Roani
Published: May 2022

Climate changes are expected to increase the severity of environmental adversities to plants, such as changes in rainfall regimes and the occurrence of more extreme temperatures, imposing a major risk to the productivity of agricultural crops. Throughout evolution, plants have evolved elegant mechanisms to cope with different adverse conditions, through the activation of different signaling pathways. The occurrence of abiotic stresses, such as osmotic stress or endoplasmic reticulum stress, tend to activate specific cellular pathways, such as the death cell signaling pathway mediated by proteins that contain DCD/NRP domains. The AtNRP1 and AtNRP2 proteins, components of the pathway in Arabidopsis, have been characterized as effectors of the programmed cell death process by the breakdown of the vacuolar membrane. Understanding how this pathway is integrated into cellular stability is essential, which justifies checking the predicted and not yet functionally characterized interactions among the components of the pathway with other proteins, such as AtCCR4a, a deadenylase that is both active in mRNA processing and in sucrose/starch metabolism. Given this context, we aimed to investigate the interaction between AtNRP2 and AtCCR4a, and its role during heat and drought stresses. We did not observe its direct involvement in the NRP-signaling pathway, however AtCCR4a was induced by osmotic and heat stresses. Furthermore, AtCCR4a disruption provides a drastically heat stress-sensitive phenotype, leading to reductions in photosynthetic pigment contents days after exposure to stress and negative changes in carbohydrate metabolism during this condition. Surprisingly, AtCCR4a disruption also promotes a more tolerant phenotype to water deficit, contributing to greater maintenance of relative water contents in leaf tissues and plant survival rate. These results indicate that AtCCR4a may have an antagonistic function in stress-responsive pathways, probably by regulating at a post-transcriptional level the expression of certain genes and/or by selecting specific target mRNAs.

INFLUENCE OF pH ON THE SPECTRAL-LUMINESCENT CHARACTERISTICS OF THE SOFT PROTEIN CROWN OF SILVER NANOPARTICLES
Authors: Davidov F. D. , Kuleshova A. A. , Saletsky A. M.
Published: May 2022

The spectral and fluorescent characteristics of bovine serum albumin (BSA) molecules in the soft crown of silver nanoparticles (AgNP) were studied at different pH values. The formation of BSA + AgNP complexes was established. The coupling constants of the complex (Kass) and the biomolecular rate constants of the BSA fluorescence quenching (Kq) were determined for different pH values. The dependences of Kass and Kq on pH are nonmonotonic with maxima at pH 6.0. The number of binding sites (Hill coefficient (n)) and the thickness of the BSA soft crown (d) are also maximal at pH 6.0. At higher and lower pH values (relative

to pH 6.0), these parameters decrease. Variations in the parameters of interaction between BSA and AgNP are due to changes in the conformational modifications of the protein (content of the а-helix) and the microenvironment of Tyr and Trp protein residues in the soft crown (hydrophobicity of the protein).

The paper deals with the variants of simple syntactic constructions formed by a head verb and a subordinate numeral (V → Num). These variants are differentiated on the basis of the presence or absence of syntactic connotation and syntactic accommodation. The subordinate numerals in the studied constructions can either be connoted or non-connoted. After a detailed presentation of the characteristics of the head verbs and the subordinate numerals, the paper offers an analysis of the processes of accommodation. It includes a description of the makeup of the different variants of the construction, the restrictions imposed on their realisation, the processes of morphological accommodation regarding the different grammatical categories and the possible interpretations of
the accommodation in number. One of the proposed analyses posits the existence of such accommodation, whereas an alternative interpretation involves no process of this type.

This pilot study discusses the results of the measurement of the acoustic properties of the soft velar plosives [gj] [kj] of the eastern Bulgarian and the western Bulgarian types of
articulation in CVC isolated syllables in comparison with the properties of the hard velar plosives [g] and [k] before the vowel [a] and the front vowel [ɛ]. According to the Bulgarian phonetic literature velar consonants preceding front vowels are realized as allophones of the hard consonants, whose articulation and acoustic features are very similar to those of their soft correlates. For the purposes of this study, we chose several acoustic parameters – consonant duration, formant transition duration (F2), F2 onset and F2 offset (Hz), F3 onset and F3 offset (Hz) – and measured them with the Praat software. The main goal is to establish the degree of differentiation between the eastern Bulgarian and the western Bulgarian articulation with respect to velar plosives. The results show that the F2 transition duration is a distinctive feature that sets apart the eastern and the western types of articulation, as well as hard and soft velar plosives. The type of F3 transition can also be considered as a differrentiator between soft and hard velar plosives. The consonant duration could hardly serve to distinguish between the two types of articulation but is relevant for the differentiation of voiced vs. voiceless plosives.

The coronavirus pandemic declared in March 2020 has caused a global crisis not only in the health, economic and psychological spheres but also in the cognitive do-main. Due to the rapid exchange of information in the electronic media, the “new reality” has emerged in clear outlines in just a few weeks.
The virus has been described in both international and Bulgarian media mostly figuratively, by means of known conceptual metaphors. The language material for this
study was excerpted from items published on the news websites dir.bg, blitz.bg and novini.bg over the period March – July 2020 – the time of the most heated public de-bates, in which the metaphorical concept of COVID-19 took its basic shape. The rich illustrative material allows for a relatively complete reconstruction of the concept, one that highlights elements both universal and specific to the Bulgarian linguistic picture of the world. The figurative representation is interpreted within a particular stylistic frame-work defined by a specific speech strategy.
Keywords: the concept of COVID-19, metaphorical representation, Bulgarian me-dia discourse

A brief overview of the production and application of materials with shape memory effect is given. Data are given, the emergence of such a concept as the shape memory effect in general, as well as data on the first studies of materials with a shape memory effect (SME), data indicating the absence of hardening of the process of accumulation of deformations of direct martensitic transformation in shape memory alloys. It is told about the occurrence of internal stresses, tending to return the structure to its original state. The advantages and uniqueness of these alloys are shown. The shape memory effect of metals is associated with special types of deformation - martensitic transformations. How does martensitic transformation depend on temperature Also, most shape memory alloys most often contain alloys of copper, aluminum and nickel, as well as nickel and titanium. Widespread use of such materials in various spheres of life. The characteristics of the effect of shape memory and reversible shape memory are considered. The implementation of mechanisms with the memory shape effect is analyzed. The range of applications of these materials is growing day by day and promises many more interesting things. Shape memory materials are the materials of the future.

The article discusses the process of steel processing at high temperatures, including annealing, hardening and tempering. Particular attention is paid to the influence of the process on the structure and properties of the material. Also, the distinctive features of the processing of different types of steel: carbon and alloy steel are analyzed. Through the implementation of the experiment, it was confirmed that annealing and tempering have a negative effect on hardness and significantly simplify the work with steel, while hardening increases the strength and hardness of the source material.

The article reveals the provisions postulating mandatory accounting and regularity of observations in structural changes in industries, as well as industrial complexes. The developments in this regard are intended to become a new tool for predicting technological dominants in the development of the regions of the Russian Federation. Using individual indicators and indicators of the spatial and sectoral development of industries and complexes in conjunction with the methods of coefficient analysis, the authors tried to build structural models of machine-building production in a particular region, which interpret the trends of technological changes in the conditions of new industrialization. The authors focused on development trends in industrial production, since it is these industries and sectors that become the basis for the use of end-to-end technologies. In this context, the paper postulates the thesis of regular observations and monitoring of structural indicators in the basic sectoral directions of the region's development in order to develop new measures to overcome the technological backwardness of the Russian industry.

In this paper we present a novel method designed for word-level visual speech recognition and intended for use in human-robot interaction. The ability of robots to understand natural human speech will significantly improve the quality of human-machine interaction. Despite outstanding breakthroughs achieved in this field in recent years this challenge remains unresolved. In current research we mainly focus on the visual part of the human speech, so-called automated lip-reading task, which becomes crucial for human-robot interaction in acoustically noisy environment. The developed method is based on the use of state-of-the-art artificial intelligence technologies and allowed to achieve an incredible 85.03% speech recognition accuracy using only video data. It is worth noting that the model training and testing of the method was carried out on a benchmarking LRW database recorded inthe-wild, and the presented results surpass many existing achieved by the researchers of the world speech recognition community.

Published: May 2022

The present study was aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of heparin, glycerine magnesium sulphate and moist heat applications on infiltration and extravasation among the IV cannulisation patients in a selected hospital of Bangalore. The conceptual framework for this study was based on the Goal Attainment theory by Imogene King. Quasi experimental time series design was used for this study. The samples were selected using convenient sampling technique; 45 samples were selected to assess the effectiveness of heparin, glycerine magnesium sulphate and moist heat applications on infiltration and extravasation among the IV cannulisation patients by using semi-structured self-administered questionnaire. Infiltration was assessed using Infiltration Grading scale (Infusion Nurses Society, 2011), extravasation was assessed using Extravasation grading scale (Nurse Consultant, Intravenous Therapy Nursing Lisa Dougherty, updated 2015) and Numerical Pain Rating scale was used to assess pain. Out of 45 samples, 15 samples were selected for all three groups of heparin, glycerine magnesium sulphate and moist heat applications which were applied as interventions in three different groups. Content validity and reliability of the tool was established by test-retest method. The final data was collected, analysed and interpreted by using descriptive and inferential statistics. The study concluded that all three interventions, heparin, glycerine magnesium sulphate and moist heat were equally effective.
