Intentional Transfer: The Four‐Year Institutional Role in Community College Transfer Success
Authors: Grachan Bart 
Published: November 2023

AbstractFour‐year institutions, as the recipients of community college transfers seeking their baccalaureate degrees, must become more proactive participants in the transfer process and conversation. Currently, enrollment management models and data reporting requirements allow four‐year institutions to take a passive approach to the issue of transfer. As an issue that affects nearly half of the nation's undergraduates, to the detriment of the vast majority of them, and the effects of which are visited disproportionally both on underrepresented minority and on low‐income students, this passivity is increasingly problematic on a national level. A recent study shows that where a specific and intentional program of community college outreach, scholarship support, and advisement are applied at a highly‐selective four‐year institution, there are sharp and significant effects on the enrollment and demographic numbers of transfer students, while maintaining high levels of student success and institutional standards.

Published: November 2023

AbstractThe origin of the glass transition is still an open debate, especially for the new class of glasses, formed from metal‐organic compounds. High‐temperature in situ 2H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) experiments are performed on deuterated samples of ZIF‐62 (Zn(C3H4N2)2‐x(C7H6N2)x, with x = 0.25 and x = 0.05), the prototypical metal–organic framework glass former. Using lineshape analysis, frequencies and angular amplitudes of oscillations of the imidazolate ring during heating up to the melt progressively increasing from ≈10 to 150 MHz, and from ≈5° to 25° are found. This behavior is compositionally dependent and points to the origin of the glass transition lying in organic linker movement, in a similar vein to that witnessed in some organics and contrary to the purely inorganic‐based view of Metal–Organic Framework (MOF) glasses taken to date. This experimental approach shows the potential to elucidate the melting and/or decomposition process for a wide range of MOFs.

AbstractThe nitridation of noble metals‐based catalysts to further enhance their hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) kinetics in neutral and alkaline conditions would be an effective strategy for developing high‐performance wide pH HER catalysts. Herein, a facile molten urea method is employed to construct the nitrided Rh nanoclusters (RhxN) supported on N‐doped carbon (RhxN‐NC). The uniformly distributed RhxN clusters exhibited optimized water bonding and splitting effects, therefore resulting in excellent pH‐universal HER performance. The optimized RhxN‐NC catalyst only requires 8, 12, and 109 mV overpotentials to reach the current density of 10 mA cm−2 in 0.5 M H2SO4, 1.0 M KOH, and 1.0 M PBS electrolytes, respectively. The spectroscopic characterizations and theoretical calculation further confirm the vital role of Rh‐N moieties in RhxN clusters in improving the transfer of electrons and facilitating the generation of H2. This work not only provides a suitable nitridation method for noble metal species in mild conditions but also makes a breakthrough in synthesizing noble metal nitrides‐based electrocatalysts to achieve an exceptional wide‐pH HER performance and other catalysis.

Published: November 2023

AbstractTriboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) have emerged as a promising technology for harvesting mechanical energy from the ambient environment. However, developing tribopositive materials with strong piezoelectric effects and high electron‐donating ability still remains a challenge. Herein, poly(ethylene glycol) monomethyl ether (mPEG) to soft poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is adopted, then PLA/mPEG nanofibers are fabricated under electrospinning and used as the tribopositive material for fabricating robust power density TENGs. The crystallinity and dynamic mechanical properties of PLA/mPEG nanofibers are investigated. The results revealed that the incorporation of mPEG provided an effective approach to elevate the electron‐donating ability and charge transfer efficiency in PLA. The PLA/mPEG‐based TENGs achieved a high open‐circuit voltage of 342.8 V, a short‐circuit current of 38.5 µA, and a maximum power density of 116.21 W m−2 over a 2 cm2 contact area at an external load of 106 Ω, respectively. Strikingly, excellent stability and durability are demonstrated after continuous cycles up to 104 cycles. Noteworthy, the TENGs are explored for self‐powered sensing applications, with seven TENG units integrated to act as self‐powered sensors playing music through buzzers when pressed by fingers. Eventually, this work provides new insights into tuning the structures and properties of electrospun polymers to reinforce the TENG output and self‐powered systems.
Platinum Electrocatalyst Promoting Redox Kinetics of Li2S and Regulating Li2S Nucleation for Lithium–Sulfur Batteries

Published: November 2023

AbstractThe development of lithium–sulfur batteries (LSBs) is impeded by the shuttle effect of polysulfides (LiPSs) and the sluggish nucleation of Li2S. To address these challenges, incorporating electrocatalysts into sulfur host materials represents an effective strategy for promoting polysulfide conversion, in tandem with the rational design of multifunctional sulfur host materials. In this study, Pt nanoparticles are integrated into biomass‐derived carbon materials by solution deposition method. Pt, as an electrocatalyst, not only enhances the electrical conductivity of sulfur cathodes and effectively immobilizes LiPSs but also catalyzes the redox reactions of sulfur species bidirectionally. Additionally, Pt helps regulate the 3D deposition and growth of Li2S while reducing the reaction energy barrier. Consequently, this accelerates the conversion of LiPSs in LSBs. Furthermore, the catalytic ability of Pt for the redox reactions of sulfur species, along with its influence on the 3D deposition and growth of Li2S, is elucidated using electrochemical kinetic analyses and classical models of electrochemical deposition. The cathodes exhibit a high initial specific capacity of 1019.1 mAh g−1 at 1 C and a low decay rate of 0.045% over 1500 cycles. This study presents an effective strategy to regulate Li2S nucleation and enhance the kinetics of polysulfide conversion in LSBs.

Published: November 2023

AbstractDeveloping deep‐blue emitters for organic light‐emitting diodes (OLEDs) is critical but challenging, which requires a good balance between light color, exciton utilization, and photoluminescence quantum yield (PLQY) of solid film. Herein, a high‐quality deep‐blue emitter, abbreviated 2TriPE‐CzMCN, is designed by introducing an aggregation‐induced emission (AIE) group into a crossed long‐short axis (CLSA) skeleton. Theoretical and experimental investigations reveal that the CLSA molecular design can achieve a balance between deep‐blue emission and triplet‐excitons utilization, while the high PLQY of the solid film resulting from the AIE feature helps to improve the performance of OLEDs. Consequently, when 2TriPE‐CzMCN is used as the emitting dopant, the OLED exhibits a deep‐blue emission at 430 nm with a record‐high maximum external quantum efficiency (EQE) of 8.84%. When 2TriPE‐CzMCN serves as the host material, the sensitized monochrome orange and two‐color white OLEDs (WOLEDs) realize high EL performances that exceed the efficiency limit of conventional fluorescent OLEDs. Moreover, high‐performance three‐color WOLEDs with a color rendering index (CRI) exceeding 90 and EQE up to 18.08% are achieved by using 2TriPE‐CzMCN as the blue‐emitting source. This work demonstrates that endowing CLSA molecule with AIE feature is an effective strategy for developing high‐quality deep‐blue emitters, and high‐performance versatile OLEDs can be realized through rational device engineering.
p-form electrodynamics as edge modes of a topological field theory
Authors: Fuentealba Oscar , Troncoso Ricardo 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
p-form electrodynamics in d ≥ 2 dimensions is shown to emerge as the edge modes of a topological field theory with a precise set of boundary conditions, through the Hamiltonian reduction of its action. Electric and magnetic charges correspond to Noether ones in the topological field theory. For chiral p-forms, the topological action can be consistently truncated, so that the Henneaux-Teitelboim action is recovered from a pure Chern-Simons theory, with a manifestly covariant stress-energy tensor at the boundary. Topologically massive p-form electrodynamics as well as axion couplings are also shown to be described through this mechanism by considering suitable (self-)interaction terms in the topological theory.
Quantum flux operators for Carrollian diffeomorphism in general dimensions
Authors: Li Ang , Liu Wen-Bin , Long Jiang , Yu Run-Ze 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
We construct Carrollian scalar field theories in general dimensions, mainly focusing on the boundaries of Minkowski and Rindler spacetime, whose quantum flux operators form a faithful representation of Carrollian diffeomorphism up to a central charge, respectively. At future/past null infinity, the fluxes are physically observable and encode rich information of the radiation. The central charge may be regularized to be finite by the spectral zeta function or heat kernel method on the unit sphere. For the theory at the Rindler horizon, the effective central charge is proportional to the area of the bifurcation surface after regularization. Moreover, the zero mode of supertranslation is identified as the modular Hamiltonian, linking Carrollian diffeomorphism to quantum information theory. Our results may hold for general null hypersurfaces and provide new insight in the study of the Carrollian field theory, asymptotic symmetry group and entanglement entropy.
A generalized 4d Chern-Simons theory
Authors: Schmidtt David M. 
Published: November 2023

Abstract
A generalization of the 4d Chern-Simons theory action introduced by Costello and Yamazaki is presented. We apply general arguments from symplectic geometry concerning the Hamiltonian action of a symmetry group on the space of gauge connections defined on a 4d manifold and construct an action functional that is quadratic in the moment map associated to the group action. The generalization relies on the use of contact 1-forms defined on non-trivial circle bundles over Riemann surfaces and mimics closely the approach used by Beasley and Witten to reformulate conventional 3d Chern-Simons theories on Seifert manifolds. We also show that the path integral of the generalized theory associated to integrable field theories of the PCM type, takes the canonical form of a symplectic integral over a subspace of the space of gauge connections, turning it a potential candidate for using the method of non-Abelian localization. Alternatively, this new quadratic completion of the 4d Chern-Simons theory can also be deduced in an intuitive way from manipulations similar to those used in T-duality. Further details on how to recover the original 4d Chern-Simons theory data, from the point of view of the Hamiltonian formalism applied to the generalized theory, are included as well.
IKKT thermodynamics and early universe cosmology

Published: November 2023

Abstract
Matrix theory is a proposed non-perturbative definition of superstring theory in which space is emergent. Recently, it was shown that space-time can emerge with a scale-invariant spectrum of cosmological perturbations which is sourced by thermal fluctuations of the BFSS model at finite temperature. Inspired by these results, we begin a study of the IKKT model at finite temperature. We find that in this model, which is closely related to the BFSS model at finite temperature, thermal fluctuations can also source a scale-invariant spectrum of scalar and tensor fluctuations.
Optimal use of granulocyte colony-stimulating factor prophylaxis to improve survival in cancer patients receiving treatment
Authors: Gascón Pere , Awada Ahmad , Karihtala Peeter , Lorenzen Sylvie , Minichsdorfer Christoph 
Published: November 2023

Summary
Background
Febrile neutropenia (FN) is a relatively common complication of cytotoxic chemotherapy. Prophylaxis with granulocyte colony-stimulating factor (G-CSF) can prevent FN and chemotherapy dose delays and enable the use of the higher dose intensities associated with a survival benefit; however, G‑CSF is not always used optimally.

Summary
Five medical oncologists with a special interest in supportive care met to discuss the evidence for prophylaxis with G‑CSF to improve survival in cancer patients, identify reasons why this is not always done, and suggest potential solutions. The dose intensity of chemotherapy is critical for maximizing survival in cancer patients but may be reduced as a result of hematological toxicity, such as FN. Use of G‑CSF has been shown to increase the chances of achieving the planned dose intensity in various cancers, including early-stage breast cancer and non-Hodgkin lymphoma. All physicians treating cancer patients should consider the use of G‑CSF prophylaxis in patients receiving chemotherapy, paying particular attention to patient-related risk factors.

Key messages
Strategies to optimize G‑CSF use include educating medical oncologists and pharmacists on the appropriate use of G‑CSF and informing patients about the efficacy of G‑CSF and its potential adverse effects. It is hoped that the evidence and opinions presented will help to encourage appropriate use of G‑CSF to support cancer patients at risk of FN in achieving the best possible outcomes from chemotherapy.

Published: November 2023

AbstractMany aspects of the spatial ecology of the cinereous vulture (Aegypius monachus) are still unknown. The Iberian population is thought to be predominantly sedentary, but the spatial patterns of young individuals have been barely studied. The aim of this study was to provide a comprehensive understanding of the juvenile dispersal of the Iberian cinereous vultures. To this end, we GPS-tagged 41 Cinereous Vultures and tracked their movements during the period 2002–2021, from the end of parental care to the beginning of reproductive age. We examined the influence of age, season and sex on movement metrics (accumulated distances, distances to nest and home range sizes). During the juvenile dispersal period, cinereous vultures travelled over large areas of the Iberian Peninsula and southern Europe. Despite the high individual variability, we found a negative age-related trend in all movement metrics: the younger individuals (<1 year old) often performed farther movements and occupied larger areas, stabilising their movements during immature (1–3 years) and subadult (4 years) phases. On the other hand, season influenced the accumulated distance within all age classes; warm months positively influenced flight effort. Finally, females flew farther and occupied larger areas than males, consistently within age classes. This study did not take into account many factors which may explain part of the high variability observed: landscape, supplementary feeding sites, dumps, colony size, interspecific interactions, stochastic events, etc. Further studies are needed to investigate the influence of these factors on the dispersal of the species in more detail, but this work provides the first approach to the juvenile dispersal of the cinereous vulture in Iberia.
Foraging fidelity and individual specialisation in a temperate bat Myotis nattereri
Authors: Mordue Simone , Mill Aileen , Shirley Mark , Aegerter James 
Published: November 2023

AbstractThis study explores whether Natterer’s bats exhibit fidelity to their foraging sites and individual specialisation in their use of habitat types. The research tracked 34 individual bats in two different landscapes, with some bats tracked twice over varying time intervals. The study found that Natterer’s bats show consistency in their fidelity to foraging sites across different landscapes and intervals between observations. The bats repeatedly exploited specific foraging areas, and some showed individual specialisation in their habitat use. The study also found considerable variation in individual behaviour. The research suggests that a single full night of radio-tracking data can serve as a useful proxy for longer periods and contribute to more robust descriptions of resource requirements by Natterer’s bats in their breeding seasons. This study emphasises the importance of maximising the number of individuals from which movement data is obtained to inform conservation and management of temperate bats, whilst ensuring that the data represent a meaningful measure of behaviour. The results also suggest that protecting a mosaic of habitats rather than a single habitat may be important for Natterer’s bats, given their individual specialisation in habitat use.

AbstractThe harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena), a highly mobile cetacean species of the Northern Hemisphere, inhabits basins that vary broadly in salinity, temperature, and food availability; such variation can drive divergent adaptation among local populations. To shed light on range-wide population structure and local adaptation, we generated ddRAD sequencing data spanning the entire North Atlantic and the Baltic Sea, as well as the Black Sea as an outgroup, and mapped this data to the high-quality draft genome of the species. We identified 11,978 genome-wide SNPs from 150 individuals, which we used for population genetic inferences. Our results support genetic differentiation between North Atlantic and Baltic Sea populations, with Kattegat as a transition zone. Across the North Atlantic the population differentiation is subtle from west to east, congruent with an isolation-by-distance pattern, but indicates a separation of southern North Sea harbour porpoises. We identified genomic outlier regions, i.e., scaffold regions where SNPs with high FST across North Atlantic populations co-occur. Together with the draft genome annotation, these regions could point towards candidate genes for differential local adaptation processes among populations. Furthermore, they enable the development of a SNP panel for routine population assignment which will be useful in a conservation and management context. We identified six outlier loci putatively under positive selection, based on the population structure inferred from the complete SNP set. Our study highlights the value of genome resources in conservation and management and provides a crucial additional resource for the study of harbour porpoise evolution and phylogeny.
Space-time multi-level modeling for zooplankton abundance employing double data fusion and calibration

Published: November 2023

AbstractAn important objective for marine biologists is to forecast the distribution and abundance of planktivorous marine predators. To do so, it is critically important to understand the spatiotemporal dynamics of their prey. Here, the prey we study are zooplankton and we build a novel space-time hierarchical fusion model to describe the distribution and abundance of zooplankton species in Cape Cod Bay (CCB), MA, USA. The data were collected irregularly in space and time at sites within the first half of the year over a 17 year period, using two different sampling methods. We focus on sea surface zooplankton abundance and incorporate sea surface temperature as a primary driver, also collected with two different sampling methods. So, with two sources for each, we observe true abundance or true sea surface temperature with measurement error. To account for such error, we apply calibrations to align the data sources and use the fusion model to develop a prediction of daily spatial zooplankton abundance surfaces throughout CCB. To infer average abundance on a given day within a given year in CCB, we present a marginalization of the zooplankton abundance surface. We extend the inference to consider abundance averaged to a bi-weekly or annual scale as well as to make an annual comparison of abundance.

AbstractChronic primary low back pain (CPLBP) is a prevalent and disabling condition that often requires rehabilitation interventions to improve function and alleviate pain. This paper aims to advance future research, including systematic reviews and randomized controlled trials (RCTs), on CPLBP management. We provide methodological and reporting recommendations derived from our conducted systematic reviews, offering practical guidance for conducting robust research on the effectiveness of rehabilitation interventions for CPLBP. Our systematic reviews contributed to the development of a WHO clinical guideline for CPLBP. Based on our experience, we have identified methodological issues and recommendations, which are compiled in a comprehensive table and discussed systematically within established frameworks for reporting and critically appraising RCTs. In conclusion, embracing the complexity of CPLBP involves recognizing its multifactorial nature and diverse contexts and planning for varying treatment responses. By embracing this complexity and emphasizing methodological rigor, research in the field can be improved, potentially leading to better care and outcomes for individuals with CPLBP.
