Discovery of Permian–Triassic eclogite in northern Tibet establishes coeval subduction erosion along an ~3000-km-long arc

Published: June 2023

Abstract
Eclogite bodies exposed across Tibet record a history of subduction-collision events that preceded growth of the Tibetan Plateau. Deciphering the time-space patterns of eclogite generation improves our knowledge of the preconditions for Cenozoic orogeny in Tibet and broader eclogite formation and/or exhumation processes. Here we report the discovery of Permo-Triassic eclogite in northern Tibet. U-Pb zircon dating and thermobarometry suggest eclogite-facies metamorphism at ca. 262–240 Ma at peak pressures of ~2.5 GPa. Inherited zircons and geochemistry show the eclogite was derived from an upper-plate continental protolith, which must have experienced subduction erosion to transport the protolith mafic bodies to eclogite-forming conditions. The Dabie eclogites to the east experienced a similar history, and we interpret that these two coeval eclogite exposures formed by subduction erosion of the upper plate and deep trench burial along the same ~3000-km-long north-dipping Permo-Triassic subduction complex. We interpret the synchroneity of eclogitization along the strike length of the subduction zone to have been driven by accelerated plate convergence due to ca. 260 Ma Emeishan plume impingement.

Abstract
The Tervu breccia zone was formed at the final stages of the Late Proterozoic magmatic and metamorphic activity (1.86 Ga ago) and healed with granitic material shortly after its formation. The Tervu breccia zone with granitic agmatites has a sublatitudinal orientation, which is discordant in relation to the earlier structures and Kurkijoki enderbite and Lauvatsaar–Impiniem diorite–tonalite complexes in the Svecofennian rocks of the Ladoga region. The largest granitic bodies in this area, the Tervu and Peltola intrusions, are located in the Tervu Zone. The U–Pb age of monazite from granites of the Peltola intrusion is determined as 1859 ± 4 Ma and coincides with the age of the granites of the Tervu intrusion (1859 ± 3 Ma), which indicates that the granites of both intrusions and some surrounding smaller bodies were intruded simultaneously into the tectonically weakened space at the late-orogenic stage while plastic deformations were turning to elasto-plastic ones. The results obtained reveal the features of the tectonic development of the junction zone of the two largest blocks of the Fennoscandinavian shield, the Karelian Craton and the Svecofennian Belt.
Ecological Resources of Boreal Forests for Greenhouse Gas Absorption and in Adaptation to Global Warming (for the Paris Climate Change Agreement)

Published: June 2023

Abstract
The forests of the Oka basin were used as an example in an experiment to solve numerically the dual-purpose task set by the Paris Climate Change Agreement (2015): to assess CO2 absorption from the atmosphere by forest communities under the current global warming and forest adaptation to climate change. The regulation processes of the carbon cycle by the forest cover, with the effect of mitigating the predicted warming, were revealed with the help of empirical–statistical modeling. The adaptation potential and role of forests in carbon adsorption and conservation were assessed. The proposed index of elastic–plastic functional stability of forest ecosystems was used as an adaptation indicator. Forest sustainability as a direct environmental factor in greenhouse gas absorption was estimated in statistical terms. An unambiguous idea of the significant increase in the ecological resources of boreal and nemoral forests was obtained: their adsorption capacity increased with an increase in the adaptation potential. During the predicted 100-year period, the overall elastic–plastic stability of forest formations should increase in the region, especially at the current velocity of global warming. Due to this fact, a significant increase in the ability of boreal and, to a lesser extent, nemoral forests to absorb greenhouse gases should also be expected. Based on the obtained results of regional prediction modeling, coupled study of the adsorption capacity of forest biomes and their adaptation to the changing climate is effective.
Tobacco companies’ creation of additional communication space: a content analysis of cigarette pack inserts and onserts
Authors: Spillane Torra E , Madar Alena , Cohen Joanna E , Welding Kevin , Clegg Smith Katherine 
Published: June 2023

Objectives
Pack inserts and onserts—removable items placed inside or on the outside of packs—are a communicative strategy used by tobacco companies that provide them with additional marketing space. A content analysis of these items was conducted across several years, countries and brands to assess how these items are used to communicate with consumers.

Methods
Between 2013 and 2020, cigarette packs were systematically collected using the Tobacco Pack Surveillance System protocol. Packs with inserts or onserts (n=178) were identified from 11 low and middle-income countries. Packs were coded for tobacco company strategies, physical pack characteristics and imagery and lexical marketing appeals.

Results
Of the 5903 packs, 3% (n=178) had an insert or onsert. 171 of these (96%) were inserts. While most (78%) pack exteriors were entirely in English, over half (51%) of the inserts/onserts were entirely in the local (non-English) language from where the pack was collected. The most common appeals on the inserts/onserts were product dependability (64%), luxury/aspirational (55%) and machinery/technology (37%). Product images were prevalent as well as images or words mentioning filters (22%). The most used appeals involved featuring aspects of a product (66%), addressing customers directly (52%) and informing customers about new aspects of a product (31%).

Conclusions
Cigarette pack inserts/onserts are unregulated in many countries and provide additional space for tobacco companies to extend and innovate their advertising. Tobacco advertising and packaging policies such as plain and standardised packaging should expand to address inserts/onserts to protect consumers more fully from industry promotion of deadly products.
Synthetic cooling agent in oral nicotine pouch products marketed as ‘Flavour-Ban Approved’
Authors: Jabba Sairam V , Erythropel Hanno C , Woodrow Jackson G , Anastas Paul T , O'Malley Stephanie , Krishnan-Sarin Suchitra , Zimmerman Julie B , Jordt Sven Eric 
Published: June 2023

Background
US sales of oral nicotine pouches (ONPs) have rapidly increased, with cool/mint-flavoured ONPs the most popular flavour category. Restrictions on sales of flavoured tobacco products have either been implemented or proposed by several US states and localities. Zyn, the most popular ONP brand, is marketing Zyn Chill and Zyn Smooth as ‘Flavour-Ban Approved’ or ‘unflavoured’, probably to evade flavour bans and increase product appeal. At present, it is unclear whether these ONPs are indeed free of flavour additives that can impart pleasant sensations such as cooling.

Methods

Sensory cooling and irritant activities of ‘Flavour-Ban Approved’ Zyn ONPs, Chill and Smooth, along with minty varieties (Cool Mint, Peppermint, Spearmint, Menthol), were analysed by Ca
2+
microfluorimetry in HEK293 cells expressing the cold/menthol (TRPM8) or menthol/irritant receptor (TRPA1). Flavour chemical content of these ONPs was analysed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry.

Results
Zyn Chill ONP extracts robustly activated TRPM8, with much higher efficacy (39%–53%) than the mint-flavoured ONPs. In contrast, mint-flavoured ONP extracts elicited stronger TRPA1 irritant receptor responses than Chill extracts. Chemical analysis demonstrated that Chill exclusively contained WS-3, an odourless synthetic cooling agent, while mint-flavoured ONPs contained WS-3 together with mint flavourants.

Conclusions
ONP products marketed as ‘Flavour-Ban Approved’ or ‘unflavoured’ contain flavouring agents, proving that the manufacturer’s advertising is misleading. Synthetic coolants such as WS-3 can provide a robust cooling sensation with reduced sensory irritancy, thereby increasing product appeal and use. Regulators need to develop effective strategies for the control of odourless sensory additives used by the industry to bypass flavour bans.
Transverse momentum decorrelation of the flow vector in Pb–Pb collisions at $$\sqrt{s_{_{\textrm{NN}}}}$$ = 5.02 TeV
Authors: Nielsen Emil Gorm , Zhou You 
Published: June 2023

AbstractAnisotropic flow, typically defined as the azimuthal correlations of the produced particles with respect to the common symmetry plane over a large kinematic, has been a popular approach in the last three decades to explore the properties of hot and dense QCD matter in high-energy heavy-ion collisions. These flow studies are usually based on the multi-particle correlations method, assuming that multi-particle correlations can be factorized into the product of flow coefficients. However, recent LHC measurements, based on new four-particle correlation observables, show evidence of flow angle decorrelation and flow magnitude decorrelation. These decorrelations break the assumption of the common symmetry plane and factorization. In this paper, we perform systematic studies to investigate the decorrelation with A Multi-Phase Transport (AMPT) model. We examine different tunings of the initial conditions, partonic cross sections, and hadronic interactions, revealing that the decorrelations are mainly driven by the initial geometry fluctuations while weakly influenced by the system’s dynamic evolution. Comparison to experimental data and the AMPT calculations presented in this paper promotes a new possibility to further constraints on the initial conditions of the heavy-ion collisions.
Purely virtual extension of quantum field theory for gauge invariant fields: Yang–Mills theory
Authors: Anselmi Damiano 
Published: June 2023

AbstractWe extend quantum field theory by including purely virtual “cloud” sectors, to define physical off-shell correlation functions of gauge invariant quark and gluon fields, without affecting the S matrix amplitudes. The extension is made of certain cloud bosons, plus their anticommuting partners. Both are quantized as purely virtual, to ensure that they do not propagate ghosts. The extended theory is renormalizable and unitary. In particular, the off-shell, diagrammatic version of the optical theorem holds. We calculate the one-loop two-point functions of dressed quarks and gluons, and show that their absorptive parts are gauge independent, cloud independent and positive (while they are generically unphysical if the cloud sectors are not purely virtual). A gauge/cloud duality simplifies the computations and shows that the gauge choice is just a particular cloud. It is possible to dress every field insertion with a different cloud. We compare the purely virtual extension to previous approaches to similar problems.
Asian Regional Income, Growth, and Distribution to 2030
Authors: Roland-Holst David , Sugiyarto Guntur , Loh Yinshan 
Published: June 2023

As Asia consolidates the economic gains and policy lessons of two generations, it can look to a bright future of sustained growth. More effective policies will even accelerate this growth, provided they recognize the essential agents of trade and productivity growth, as well as the importance of promoting domestic regional demand. Rising incomes promise greater homegrown demand for domestic producers and essential diversification for regional exporters. This study surveys historical income distribution data from 22 Asian economies, projects the emergence of middle classes in the next 20 years, and examines its role in Asian economies. The study also examines the drivers of growth over this periond using a dynamic computable general equilibrium (CGE) model to forecast GDP and consumption trends. The findings suggest that Asia can sustain and even accelerate current patterns of poverty reduction and livelihood advancement beyond poverty. Over the next 20 years, about 1 billion people will be added to the 2.7 billion Asian middle class (based on $2-a- day PPP standard). The rate of middle class emergence will be uneven across the region and will depend mostly on initial conditions. The results also suggest that energy price vulnerability is a critical risk to regional growth—and calls for energy efficiency measures to insure against this risk. The agricultural productivity growth can improve both the incomes of the majority of Asia’s rural poor and the purchasing power of urbanites. Policies that reduce both energy and food costs can therefore be a potent source of new demand for products and services as well as jobs. Finally, given the importance of labor resources to Asian growth, skills development is the most critical prerequisite for realizing the vast economic potential of Asia. Higher incomes, a larger middle class, and self-sustaining prosperity can only be built on the foundation of a skilled and productive labor force that captures significant value added and channels higher incomes into sustained long-term expenditure, savings, and investment.
Asian and Pacific Developing Economies: Performance and Issues
Authors: Bhatia V.G. 
Published: June 2023

The year 1987 was important for many of the developing countries in the Asian and Pacific region since it was four decades earlier that these countries achieved their political independence. It seems, therefore, an appropriate time to review the past economic performance of the developing countries in the region and assess their future prospects. While the outlook for most of them appears optimistic, a number of problems persist and are likely to remain for some time to come. It is undeniable, however, that generally the achievements of the region as a whole have been impressive. The Asian and Pacific region is both large and diverse, if for no other reason than the sheer size and distribution of its population (see Table 1). It accounts for more than half the people of the world. The population of the People's Republic of China alone is 1 billion, and more than 1 billion live in South Asia. About 360 million people live in Southeast Asia and more than 50 million in Hong Kong, Republic of Korea and the countries in the South Pacific.
Robust Subgroup Multisignature with One-Time Public Keys in Order
Authors: Wang Zhiwei , Tian Chen , Wang Zhanlin , Wang Yuhang 
Published: June 2023

Robust subgroup multisignature allows any subgroup of signers from a global set to sign a given message on behalf of the whole group, and the individual signatures should be verified before the combination process, which resists poison signature attacks. An emerging application of robust subgroup multisignatures in blockchain is that a qualified subgroup of a global set of users has reached agreement. In the integrated blockchain and edge computing system, the edge server can naturally act as a combiner in multisignatures and help other end devices produce the final aggregate signature. In this paper, we propose a robust subgroup multisignature with one-time public keys in order that has two advantages for solving the signers ordering problem and one-time public key problem simultaneously. Our scheme is a nontrivial extension of Galindo et al.’s robust subgroup multisignature scheme and can be proven unforgeable, robust and chronological in random oracles. Our scheme can also be suitable for the consortium blockchain by adding a noninteractive zero-knowledge (NIZK) proof system for certifying the one-time public keys.
Evolution of Rényi-2 quantum correlations in a double cavity–magnon system
Authors: Hidki Abdelkader , Lakhfif Abderrahim , El Qars Jamal , Nassik Mostafa 
Published: June 2023

This work reports on the stationary evolution of three different kinds of quantum correlations between two distant magnon modes. The system at hand consists of two spatially separated cavities, where each cavity has a microwave (MW) cavity and a magnon mode. The two cavities are coupled to each other via the photon-tunneling process, and both are exposed to the output field of a squeezed vacuum MW fields source. By calculating the covariance matrix fully describing the state of the two magnon modes, we give the explicit expressions of the measures of correlations defined via the Rényi-2 entropy, i.e. the Gaussian quantum steering [Formula: see text], Gaussian Rényi-2 entanglement [Formula: see text] and Gaussian Rényi-2 mutual information [Formula: see text]. We find that, the quantum steering is always upper bounded by the entanglement, which is in turn always upper bounded by half of the total correlations. The obtained results are consistent with the hierarchical Rényi-2 quantum correlations established in [L. Lami, C. Hirche, G. Adesso and A. Winter, Phys. Rev. Lett. 117, 220502 (2016)], i.e. they fulfill the hierarchical inequality [Formula: see text]. The influences of the squeezing parameter, the environmental temperature, the cavity–magnon coupling and the cavity–cavity coupling on the correlations are studied in detail.

This study investigates the production of charged particles and the kaonic nuclei [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] in [Formula: see text] collisions at [Formula: see text] GeV. The parton and hadron cascade model PACIAE 2.1 is used to calculate the yield of charged particles, and the Dynamically Constrained Phase–space Coalescence (DCPC) model is used to calculate the yield of kaonic nuclei. Results showed that the yield of charged particles was consistent with experimental data from the STAR detector at Brookhaven National Laboratory (United States). The data also revealed that the simulated yield of [Formula: see text] was greater than the yield of [Formula: see text]. The kaonic nuclei [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are probably formed by [Formula: see text](or [Formula: see text]) directly trapping two protons (or antiprotons).

Abstract

This study documents a major continental flood basalt province in the central Labrador Trough that produced voluminous mafic magmatism along the palaeo-rifted margin of the Superior craton. This area, representing a preserved magma volume of approximately 25 000 km
3
, is characterized by classic ‘traps’ topography with columnar-jointed flows and sills separated by thin clastic sedimentary layers. A gabbroic sill near the bottom of the sequence yielded a U–Pb zircon age of 2166 ± 4 Ma, and another near the middle of the sequence yielded a 2171 ± 3 Ma U–Pb zircon age. These ages overlap in time with published ages of mafic dyke swarms that radiate outwards into the adjacent Superior craton, namely the Biscotasing (2172–2167 Ma) and Payne River (2170–2160 Ma) dykes, as well as the Otish sills (2172–2162 Ma) and Tasiataq (2170 Ma) dyke. Our data suggest that these central Labrador magmas, named the Corrugated Hills Continental Flood Basalt, were emplaced near or above a mantle plume head, leading to thermal uplift and then rifting of the Superior craton margin. Field relationships suggest that these magmas were erupted through thinned Archean crust as a rift-related continental flood basalt suite. The Corrugated Hills Continental Flood Basalt province represents remnants of one of the oldest continental flood basalt provinces on Earth.

Abstract

Purpose:
Plasma circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) analysis is used for genotyping advanced non–small cell lung cancer (NSCLC); monitoring dynamic ctDNA changes may be used to predict outcomes.

Patients and Methods:
This was a retrospective, exploratory analysis of two phase III trials [AURA3 (NCT02151981), FLAURA (NCT02296125)]. All patients had EGFR mutation-positive (EGFRm; ex19del or L858R) advanced NSCLC; AURA3 also included T790M-positive NSCLC. Osimertinib (FLAURA, AURA3), or comparator EGFR–tyrosine kinase inhibitor (EGFR-TKI; gefitinib/erlotinib; FLAURA), or platinum-based doublet chemotherapy (AURA3) was given. Plasma EGFRm was analyzed at baseline and Weeks 3/6 by droplet digital PCR. Outcomes were assessed by detectable/non-detectable baseline plasma EGFRm and plasma EGFRm clearance (non-detection) at Weeks 3/6.

Results:
In AURA3 (n = 291), non-detectable versus detectable baseline plasma EGFRm had longer median progression-free survival [mPFS; HR, 0.48; 95% confidence interval (CI), 0.33–0.68; P &lt; 0.0001]. In patients with Week 3 clearance versus non-clearance (n = 184), respectively, mPFS (months; 95% CI) was 10.9 (8.3–12.6) versus 5.7 (4.1–9.7) with osimertinib and 6.2 (4.0–9.7) versus 4.2 (4.0–5.1) with platinum-pemetrexed. In FLAURA (n = 499), mPFS was longer with non-detectable versus detectable baseline plasma EGFRm (HR, 0.54; 95% CI, 0.41–0.70; P &lt; 0.0001). For Week 3 clearance versus non-clearance (n = 334), respectively, mPFS was 19.8 (15.1 to not calculable) versus 11.3 (9.5–16.5) with osimertinib and 10.8 (9.7–11.1) versus 7.0 (5.6–8.3) with comparator EGFR-TKI. Similar outcomes were observed by Week 6 clearance/non-clearance.

Conclusions:
Plasma EGFRm analysis as early as 3 weeks on-treatment has the potential to predict outcomes in EGFRm advanced NSCLC.
