Power
Authors: Caplan Jane 
Published: July 2019

Abstract
The Nazi leadership was ill-prepared for the exercise of state power. Before 1933 the Nazi Party had been dedicated to gaining power through mass mobilization and the disruption of democratic government, and its leadership was held together by personal loyalty to their Führer rather than a shared programme. These qualities were unpropitious for the tasks of government. ‘Power’ explains the hybrid dictatorship that ensued, mingling three competitive sources of power: the inherited state system; the extra-legal terror of police, SS (Schutzstaffel), and concentration camps; and the personal status of the Führer.
Volksgemeinschaft
Authors: Caplan Jane 
Published: July 2019

Abstract
‘Volksgemeinschaft: Community and exclusion’ considers how the Nazi leadership attempted to create an integral national racial community, or Volksgemeinschaft. The foundation of this community was the violent exclusion of all those deemed unfit for membership according to biological, eugenic, or racial criteria. Radical new policies aimed to force the complex mosaic of German society into a weapon for demographic growth, racial struggle, and territorial expansion. At its apex was the systematic discrimination and violent persecution of Germany’s Jewish citizens.
Volksgemeinschaft
Authors: Caplan Jane 
Published: July 2019

Abstract
‘Volksgemeinschaft: Control and belonging’ describes ordinary life under Nazi power, and suggests that a binary model of support versus opposition does not do justice to the range of experiences and attitudes. Germans who were neither forcibly excluded from the community nor enthusiastic supporters of Nazism faced often mundane decisions about their conduct. While many had to suspend or disguise old habits and daily behaviours, the claims of Volksgemeinschaft ran far beyond their realization. Class distinctions did not vanish, a ‘traditional’ gender order was not re-established, Germans did not all become Nazis.
War
Authors: Caplan Jane 
Published: July 2019

Abstract
‘War’ focuses on German political and military strategies after the invasion of the Soviet Union in 1941, when Hitler could see the prize of unassailable continental dominance within reach. With Nazi power at its greatest extent in 1942, the chapter discusses the markedly different Nazi occupation regimes in the west and the east, and the turn towards defeat in 1943. Hitler’s insistence on unremitting resistance caused massive loss of life on the military and home fronts, brought to an end only with his suicide and with Germany’s official capitulation on 8 May.
Epilogue
Authors: Caplan Jane 
Published: July 2019

Abstract
The Epilogue considers the core questions raised in earlier chapters: the place of National Socialism in German history and what it meant to be ‘German’ after the defeat of Nazism. Trials of leading figures in the regime in 1945–9 were a first step, but addressing responsibility for Nazi crimes was a prolonged and uneven process. How Germans confronted the Nazi past was affected by the establishment of two separate German states in 1949, the Cold War, the unification of Germany in 1990, and the eventual development of an international culture of Holocaust.

Characterization of Diagnosabilities on the Bounded PMC Model
Authors: Lian Guanqin , Zhou Shuming , Hsieh Sun-Yuan , Chen Gaolin , Liu Jiafei , Gu Zhendong 
Published: July 2019

Abstract
In this paper, we propose a new digragh model for system level fault diagnosis, which is called the $(f_1,f_{2})$-bounded Preparata–Metze–Chien (PMC) model (shortly, $(f_1,f_{2})$-BPMC). The $(f_1,f_{2})$-BPMC model projects a system such that the number of faulty processors that test faulty processors with the test results $0$ does not exceed $f_{2}$$(f_2\leq f_{1})$ provided that the upper bound on the number of faulty processors is $f_{1}$. This novel testing model compromisingly generalizes PMC model (Preparata, F.P., Metze, G. and Chien R.T. (1967) On the connection assignment problem of diagnosable systems. IEEE Tran. Electron. Comput.,EC-16, 848–854) and Barsi–Grandoni–Maestrini model (Barsi, F., Grandoni, F. and Maestrini, P. (1976) A theory of diagnosability of digital systems. IEEE Trans. Comput.C-25, 585–593). Then we present some characterizations for one-step diagnosibility under the $(f_1,f_{2})$-bounded PMC model, and determine the diagnosabilities of some special regular networks. Meanwhile, we establish the characterizations of $f_1/(n-1)$-diagnosability and three configurations of $f_1/(n-1)$-diagnosable system under the $(f_1,f_{2})$-BPMC model.
Note on Applications of Linearly Many Faults

Published: July 2019

Abstract
Most graphs have this property: after removing a linear number of vertices from a graph, the surviving graph is either connected or consists of a large connected component and small components containing a small number of vertices. This property can be applied to derive fault-tolerance related network parameters: extra edge connectivity and component edge connectivity. Using this general property, we obtained the $h$-extra edge connectivity and $(h+2)$-component edge connectivity of augmented cubes, Cayley graphs generated by transposition trees, complete cubic networks (including hierarchical cubic networks), generalized exchanged hypercubes (including exchanged hypercubes) and dual-cube-like graphs (including dual cubes).
Piracy studies coming of age: a window on the making of maritime intervention actors
Authors: Jacobsen Katja Lindskov , Larsen Jessica 
Published: July 2019

Abstract
How, as a sub-set of maritime security, can piracy studies contribute with conceptual insights of relevance to the field of international security governance and international politics more broadly? To answer this question the article examines, with reference to critical intervention studies, how responses to Somali piracy have had constitutive effects, notably ‘back onto’ the intervening actors themselves. More specifically, three themes are examined: regulation (law), structures (institutions) and practices (actors), each of which highlights a distinct sense of contingency, which both characterizes contemporary security governance at sea and makes ‘the maritime’ an interesting domain for the study of constitutive effects related to the making of intervention actors. In light of this, the article argues that studying ‘the maritime’ can offer conceptual insights to the constitutive effects of counter-piracy interventions that may prove relevant to broader debates about governance and security in a changing world order.
Age-specific shifts in Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides) distribution in response to changing ocean climate
Authors: Wheeland Laura J , Morgan M Joanne 
Published: July 2019

AbstractFish distribution is strongly influenced by temperature, with populations predicted to respond to ongoing changes in ocean climate by adapting distribution to maintain preferred thermal habitats. Over the last several decades, the Northwest Atlantic off Newfoundland, Canada has experienced wide variation in temperature and significant changes in the structure of the marine community. A period of particularly cold ocean conditions from the mid-1980s to mid-1990s saw Greenland halibut occupying deeper waters, and moving farther offshore and southward. Distributional shifts across periods of varying thermal conditions were most pronounced in the youngest ages. While no specific nursery areas were evident, these young fish typically occurred in shallower waters where temperatures were more variable, moving deeper with age. Sensitivity to changing ocean climate may vary with age. This adaptation to shifting temperatures suggests that this species is likely to alter its distribution in the face of continued changes in ocean climate. Age-specific differences in response to changing temperature have potential implications for ecosystem interactions and fisheries management.
Resolutions With Conical Slices and Descent for the Brauer Group Classes of Certain Central Reductions of Differential Operators in Characteristicp

Published: July 2019

Abstract“Even more so is the word ‘crystalline’, a glacial and impersonal concept of his which disdains viewing existence from a single portion of time and space” Eileen Myles, “The Importance of Being Iceland”For a smooth variety $X$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$ to a differential 1-form $\alpha $ on the Frobenius twist $X^{\textrm{(1)}}$ one can associate an Azumaya algebra ${{\mathcal{D}}}_{X,\alpha }$, defined as a certain central reduction of the algebra ${{\mathcal{D}}}_X$ of “crystalline differential operators” on $X$. For a resolution of singularities $\pi :X\to Y$ of an affine variety $Y$, we study for which $\alpha $ the class $[{{\mathcal{D}}}_{X,\alpha }]$ in the Brauer group $\textrm{Br}(X^{\textrm{(1)}})$ descends to $Y^{\textrm{(1)}}$. In the case when $X$ is symplectic, this question is related to Fedosov quantizations in characteristic $p$ and the construction of noncommutative resolutions of $Y$. We prove that the classes $[{{\mathcal{D}}}_{X,\alpha }]$ descend étale locally for all $\alpha $ if ${{\mathcal{O}}}_Y\widetilde{\rightarrow }\pi _\ast{{\mathcal{O}}}_X$ and $R^{1}\pi _*\mathcal O_X = R^2\pi _*\mathcal O_X =0$. We also define a certain class of resolutions, which we call resolutions with conical slices, and prove that for a general reduction of a resolution with conical slices in characteristic $0$ to an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p$ classes $[{{\mathcal{D}}}_{X,\alpha }]$ descend to $Y^{\textrm{(1)}}$ globally for all $\alpha $. Finally we give some examples; in particular, we show that Slodowy slices, Nakajima quiver varieties, and hypertoric varieties are resolutions with conical slices.

ABSTRACT
We present a Wide-field ASKAP L-Band Legacy All-sky Blind surveY (WALLABY) study of the nearby (vsys = 915 km s−1) spiral galaxy IC 5201 using the Australian Square Kilometre Array Pathfinder (ASKAP). IC 5201 is a blue, barred spiral galaxy that follows the known scaling relations between stellar mass, SFR, H i mass, and diameter. We create a four-beam mosaicked H i image cube from 175 h of observations made with a 12-antenna sub-array. The root mean square noise level of the cube is 1.7 mJy beam−1 per channel, equivalent to a column density of $N_{\rm H\, \small {I}}$ = 1.4 × 1020 cm−2 over 25 km s−1. We report nine extragalactic H i detections – five new H i detections including the first velocity measurements for two galaxies. These sources are IC 5201, three dwarf satellite galaxies, two galaxies, and a tidal feature belonging to the NGC 7232/3 triplet and two potential infalling galaxies to the triplet. There is evidence of a previous tidal interaction between IC 5201 and the irregular satellite AM 2220−460. A close fly-by is likely responsible for the asymmetric optical morphology of IC 5201 and warping its disc, resulting in the irregular morphology of AM 2220−460. We quantify the H i kinematics of IC 5201, presenting its rotation curve as well as showing that the warp starts at 14 kpc along the major axis, increasing as a function of radius with a maximum difference in position angle of 20°. There is no evidence of stripped H i, triggered or quenched star formation in the system as measured using DECam optical and GALEX UV photometry.

Published: July 2019

AbstractSeveral studies have suggested a possible etiological association between ovarian endometriosis and ovarian cancer. Evidence has shown that KIF20A overexpression might confer a malignant phenotype to ovarian tumors by promoting proliferation and inhibiting apoptosis. However, no data about the role of KIF20A in endometriosis have been described. In this study, the human endometrium (n = 4) was transfected by mCherry adenovirus and intraperitoneally implanted in mice. Subsequently, mice were divided in three groups (n = 8/group) that were treated with Vehicle, BKS0349 (KIF20A-antagonist) or cabergoline (dopamine receptor agonist) for 21 days. mCherry-labeled endometriotic lesions were monitored over time using the IVIS Imaging System. Mice were sacrificed 72 h after the last administration; proliferation was evaluated by immunohistochemistry and apoptosis by TUNEL. CCND1 gene expression (G1 phase-related gene) was measured by qRT-PCR. A significant reduction in mCherry-fluorescent signal was observed in the BKS0349 group after treatment ended (D24) compared with D0 (P-value = 0.0313). Moreover, the mCherry signal on D24 showed a significant decrease in the BKS0349 group compared with controls (P-value = 0.0303), along with significant size reduction of endometriotic lesions observed in the BKS0349 group compared with control on D24 (P-value = 0.0006). Functional studies showed a significant reduction in proliferating cells in the BKS0349-treated group compared with controls (P-value = 0.0082). In addition, CCND1 expression was decreased in the BKS0349 group compared with control (P-value = 0.049) at D24 and a significant increase in apoptotic cells among endometriotic lesions in BKS0349-treated mice was observed compared with control (P-value = 0.0317). Based on these findings, we concluded that BKS0349 induces apoptosis and inhibits cell proliferation, reducing endometriotic lesion size and suggesting KIF20A inhibition by BKS0349 as a novel therapeutic treatment for endometriosis.
Ionic thermal up-diffusion in nanofluidic salinity-gradient energy harvesting
Authors: Long Rui , Kuang Zhengfei , Liu Zhichun , Liu Wei 
Published: July 2019

Abstract
Advances in nanofabrication and materials science give a boost to the research in nanofluidic energy harvesting. Contrary to previous efforts on isothermal conditions, here a study on asymmetric temperature dependence in nanofluidic power generation is conducted. Results are somewhat counterintuitive. A negative temperature difference can significantly improve the membrane potential due to the impact of ionic thermal up-diffusion that promotes the selectivity and suppresses the ion-concentration polarization, especially at the low-concentration side, which results in dramatically enhanced electric power. A positive temperature difference lowers the membrane potential due to the impact of ionic thermal down-diffusion, although it promotes the diffusion current induced by decreased electrical resistance. Originating from the compromise of the temperature-impacted membrane potential and diffusion current, a positive temperature difference enhances the power at low transmembrane-concentration intensities and hinders the power for high transmembrane-concentration intensities. Based on the system's temperature response, we have proposed a simple and efficient way to fabricate tunable ionic voltage sources and enhance salinity-gradient energy conversion based on small nanoscale biochannels and mimetic nanochannels. These findings reveal the importance of a long-overlooked element—temperature—in nanofluidic energy harvesting and provide insights for the optimization and fabrication of high-performance nanofluidic power devices.
Robot-Assisted Cortical Bone Trajectory Insertion of Pedicle Screws: 2-Dimensional Operative Video

Published: July 2019

Abstract
Robot-assisted pedicle screw insertion has been slowly gaining popularity in the spine surgery community. In previous studies, robotics has been shown to increase accuracy and reduce complication rates compared to other navigation technologies, although those studies have been conducted using traditional trajectories for pedicle screw insertion. We present a surgical video in which a robotics system (Mazor X; Mazor Robotics Ltd, Caesarea, Israel) was used to create cortical bone trajectories for the insertion of the screws. The patient in this case is a 52-yr-old woman with severe L4-5 disc herniation requiring a transforaminal interbody fusion with the insertion of pedicle screws. The robotic system's scan-and-plan technique was utilized, in which an intraoperative computed tomography (CT) scan generates a real-time operative plan. Other techniques for inserting pedicle screws using cortical bone trajectories include CT navigation and fluoroscopic guidance. These techniques allow the surgeon to manually direct the screw under precise guidance in multiple planes, although the surgeon is still using all 6 degrees of freedom the human hand provides. With robotic guidance, a pilot hole is drilled, which eliminates 4 of 6 degrees of freedom, which can potentially reduce the risk of misplaced screws. To our knowledge, this is the first video demonstrating pedicle screw insertion through cortical bone trajectories using robotic guidance. Future studies are warranted to compare cortical bone trajectory insertion using different navigation techniques to determine the long-term efficacy of each technique.
The patient gave informed consent for surgery and video recording. Institutional review board approval was deemed unnecessary.
The Invariant Nature of a Morphological Character and Character State: Insights from Gene Regulatory Networks
Authors: Tarasov Sergei 
Published: July 2019

AbstractWhat constitutes a discrete morphological character versus character state has been long discussed in the systematics literature but the consensus on this issue is still missing. Different methods of classifying organismal features into characters and character states (CCSs) can dramatically affect the results of phylogenetic analyses. Here, I show that, in the framework of Markov models, the modular structure of the gene regulatory network (GRN) underlying trait development, and the hierarchical nature of GRN evolution, essentially remove the distinction between morphological CCS, thus endowing the CCS with an invariant property with respect to each other. This property allows the states of one character to be represented as several individual characters and vice versa. In practice, this means that a phenotype can be encoded using a set of characters or just one complex character with numerous states. The representation of a phenotype using one complex character can be implemented in Markov models of trait evolution by properly structuring transition rate matrix.
Effects of distillers dried grains with solubles supplementation on yearling heifers grazing Northern Great Plains rangeland: impacts on subsequent feedlot performance and meat quality1
Authors: Larson Quynn P , Maddock Robert J , Neville Bryan W 
Published: July 2019

Abstract
Eighty-two yearling crossbred heifers (318.8 ± 1.03 kg) were utilized in a completely randomized design to evaluate the effects of distillers dried grains with solubles (DDGS) supplementation on animal performance, while grazing on rangeland of the Northern Great Plains, and subsequent feedlot performance, carcass characteristics, and meat quality traits. Treatments were: 1) 0% DDGS supplementation (CONT) and 2) 0.6% of body weight (BW) DDGS supplementation (SUP). Heifers received treatments for 70 d (6 June to 16 August) while grazing, and then were acclimated to and fed a common corn-based finishing diet for 109 d. Average daily gain (ADG) of SUP heifers was greater (P ≤ 0.01), resulting in heavier BW (P ≤ 0.03) following grazing compared with CONT heifers. Heifer performance, including ADG (1.91 ± 0.05 kg/d), gain to feed (G:F) (0.15 ± 0.003 kg), dry matter intake (DMI) (12.6 ± 0.20 kg), and final BW (572.4 ± 7.43 kg) were not different (P ≥ 0.13) during finishing. Hot carcass weight (335.7 ± 4.39 kg), Longissimus muscle area (81.30 ± 1.24 cm2), 12th rib fat thickness (1.24 ± 0.06 cm), and kidney, pelvic, heart fat (KPH) (1.85 ± 0.08%) were not different (P ≥ 0.47) between treatments. There were no differences (P ≥ 0.24) between treatments in yield grade (2.9 ± 0.10) or marbling (492 ± 22.3; Small00 = 400). Results from Warner–Bratzler shear force indicated that strip loin steaks from SUP heifers tended (P = 0.07) to have increased tenderness compared with strip loin steaks from CONT heifers (3.3 vs. 3.7 ± 0.12 kg, respectively). Inclusion of 0.6% BW supplementation during grazing increased (P = 0.01) strip loin steak muscle lightness (L*) compared with CONT steaks (46.5 vs. 45.5 ± 0.27, respectively). Strip loin steaks from heifers supplemented DDGS during grazing were perceived to be more tender by taste panelists (P = 0.02) than strip loin steaks from CONT heifers (5.9 vs. 5.5 ± 0.11; eight-point scale). Supplementation of DDGS during grazing improved ADG of yearling heifers with no effect on feedlot performance or carcass characteristics but did improve tenderness and steak sensory attributes.
Diel dynamics of dissolved organic matter and heterotrophic prokaryotes reveal enhanced growth at the ocean’s mesopelagic fish layer during daytime

Published: July 2019

ABSTRACTContrary to epipelagic waters, where biogeochemical processes closely follow the light and dark periods, little is known about diel cycles in the ocean’s mesopelagic realm. Here, we monitored the dynamics of dissolved organic matter (DOM) and planktonic heterotrophic prokaryotes every 2 h for one day at 0 and 550 m (a depth occupied by vertically migrating fish during light hours) in oligotrophic waters of the central Red Sea. We additionally performed predator-free seawater incubations of samples collected from the same site both at midnight and at noon. Comparable in situ variability in microbial biomass and dissolved organic carbon concentration suggests a diel supply of fresh DOM in both layers. The presence of fish in the mesopelagic zone during daytime promoted a sustained, longer growth of larger prokaryotic cells. The specific growth rates were consistently higher in the noon experiments from both depths (surface: 0.34 vs. 0.18 d−1, mesopelagic: 0.16 vs. 0.09 d−1). Heterotrophic bacteria and archaea in the mesopelagic fish layer were also more efficient at converting DOM into new biomass. These results suggest that the ocean’s twilight zone receives a consistent diurnal supply of labile DOM from diel vertical migrating fishes, enabling an unexpectedly active community of heterotrophic prokaryotes.
