Anthropogenic warming disrupts intraseasonal monsoon stages and brings dry-get-wetter climate in future East Asia
Authors: Dai Lun , Cheng Tat Fan , Lu Mengqian 
Published: February 2022

AbstractEast Asia will face a skewed monsoon cycle with soaring flood, drought, and weather whiplash risks in a warming climate. In our objective eight-intraseasonal-monsoon-stage framework, we uncover a ‘dry-get-wetter’ paradigm in East Asia, contesting the fallen ‘rich-get-richer’ common belief. On timing, the Mid-summer and Fall periods are stretching at the expense of three delayed, shortened, and weakened winter stages, especially near the end of the twenty-first century. On threats, entire East Asia will experience up to 14–20 more heavy precipitation days during the rainy Spring to Mid-summer stages. Specifically, the Yangtze basin will suffer from an earlier pluvial period with escalating flood risks. Moreover, societal security and ecosystem resilience in the Huai-Yellow basin, South Japan, and the Korean Peninsula will be challenged by more frequent weather whiplash. Under the monsoon-stage framework, a complete moisture budget decomposition sheds light on the causes of a slower precipitation scaling and the ‘dry-get-wetter’ paradigm.

Research on central air‐conditioning control strategy of intelligent building group based on DFT
Authors: Li Bin , Yang Mengru , Li Zhineng , Bai Xiaoqing 
Published: February 2022

AbstractTo construct a multi‐energy complementary system for intelligent building group, a direct control strategy for central air conditioning based on discrete Fourier transform is proposed. This strategy can reduce the deviation between actual load and transaction results while absorbing photovoltaic (PV) power generation and improving the enterprise economy in the power market environment. The strategy uses the discrete Fourier transform (DFT) to find the scheduling demand of the central air‐conditioning (AC) group and realizes the scheduling demand by changing the temperature setting value. Also, the strategy can assess AC status in real‐time, which combines with ultra‐short‐term load forecasting to adjust future purchase planned values. The simulation results show that the strategy can realize a real‐time load track with the power purchase plan while absorbing PV power generation with low action times and temperature changes, which improves the absorption of distributed PV power generation and reduces the assessment bias.
Ist die weibliche koronare Mikrovaskulatur anders?
Authors: Sechtem Udo , Seitz Andreas , McChord Johanna , Ong Peter 
Published: February 2022

ZusammenfassungViele Frauen mit Angina pectoris haben keine stenosierende koronare Herzerkrankung. Oft
liegen der Symptomatik koronare Funktionsstörungen zugrunde, die wiederum häufig die
koronare Mikrovaskulatur betreffen. Zu unterscheiden ist zwischen mikrovaskulären
Störungen der Vasodilatation bzw. der Vasokonstriktion, wobei letztere häufiger sind. Die
genaue Diagnose erfordert in aller Regel invasive Funktionstests mit Applikation von
Adenosin bzw. Acetylcholin. Die Testergebnisse erlauben die Einteilung in Endotypen, die
wiederum die Basis für eine angepasste und daher erfolgreiche medikamentöse Therapie sind.
Es wurde spekuliert, dass die weibliche Mikrovaskulatur anders aufgebaut sein bzw. anders
funktionieren könne als die männliche. Wahrscheinlich ist der wesentliche Unterschied aber
die schnellere und daher frühere Entwicklung epikardialer stenosierender Läsionen bei
Männern, bei denen dann nicht weiter nach dem Zustand der Mikrovaskulatur geschaut wird.
Dafür spricht die hohe Zahl von Patienten, die auch nach Koronarintervention weiter Angina
pectoris haben.
The roles of language proficiency and study abroad in Japanese students’ receptive pragmatic competence
Authors: Shintani Natsuko , Ellis Rod 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
This study investigated the pragmatic competence of 50 Japanese English major students, divided into two groups, one of which participated in a study abroad (SA) program and the other stayed at home (AH) taking regular university classes. Two tests were used to measure two aspects of the students’ pragmatic competence. The Irony Test measured their ability to identify negative and positive irony. The Metapragmatic Test measured their ability to identify inappropriate speech acts and their understanding of why they were inappropriate. Results showed that, compared with a group of native speakers, the students had difficulty in identifying both irony – especially positive irony – and speech act inappropriateness. The students’ language proficiency was related to their metapragmatic ability but not to their ability to detect irony. A comparison of the SA and AH students revealed a small advantage for the former in the Metapragmatic Test but not in the Irony Test.

Published: February 2022

Abstract
Advanced manufacturing technologies, led by additive manufacturing, have undergone significant growth in recent years. These technologies enable engineers to design parts with reduced weight while maintaining structural and functional integrity. In particular, metal additive manufacturing parts are increasingly used in application areas such as aerospace, where a failure of a mission-critical part can have dire safety consequences. Therefore, the quality of these components is extremely important. A critical aspect of quality control is dimensional evaluation, where measurements provide quantitative results that are traceable to the standard unit of length, the metre. Dimensional measurements allow designers, manufacturers and users to check product conformity against engineering drawings and enable the same quality standard to be used across the supply chain nationally and internationally. However, there is a lack of development of measurement techniques that provide non-destructive dimensional measurements beyond common non-destructive evaluation focused on defect detection. X-ray computed tomography (XCT) technology has great potential to be used as a non-destructive dimensional evaluation technology. However, technology development is behind the demand and growth for advanced manufactured parts. Both the size and the value of advanced manufactured parts have grown significantly in recent years, leading to new requirements of dimensional measurement technologies. This paper is a cross-disciplinary review of state-of-the-art non-destructive dimensional measuring techniques relevant to advanced manufacturing of metallic parts at larger length scales, especially the use of high energy XCT with source energy of greater than 400 kV to address the need in measuring large advanced manufactured parts. Technologies considered as potential high energy x-ray generators include both conventional x-ray tubes, linear accelerators, and alternative technologies such as inverse Compton scattering sources, synchrotron sources and laser-driven plasma sources. Their technology advances and challenges are elaborated on. The paper also outlines the development of XCT for dimensional metrology and future needs.

Published: February 2022

Abstract
We demonstrate the fabrication of micron-wide tungsten silicide superconducting nanowire single-photon detectors on a silicon substrate using laser lithography. We show saturated internal detection efficiencies with wire widths ranging from 0.59 µm to 1.43 µm under illumination at 1550 nm. We demonstrate both straight wires, as well as meandered structures. Single-photon sensitivity is shown in devices up to 4 mm in length. Laser-lithographically written devices allow for fast and easy structuring of large areas while maintaining a saturated internal efficiency for wire widths around 1 µm.
Quantum metrology based on symmetry-protected adiabatic transformation: imperfection, finite time duration, and dephasing
Authors: Hatomura Takuya , Yoshinaga Atsuki , Matsuzaki Yuichiro , Tatsuta Mamiko 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
The aim of quantum metrology is to estimate target parameters as precisely as possible. In this paper, we consider quantum metrology based on symmetry-protected adiabatic transformation. We introduce a ferromagnetic Ising model with a transverse field as a probe and consider the estimation of a longitudinal field. Without the transverse field, the ground state of the probe is given by the Greenberger–Horne–Zeilinger state, and thus the Heisenberg limit estimation of the longitudinal field can be achieved through parity measurement. In our scheme, full information of the longitudinal field encoded on parity is exactly mapped to global magnetization by symmetry-protected adiabatic transformation, and thus the parity measurement can be replaced with global magnetization measurement. Moreover, this scheme requires neither accurate control of individual qubits nor that of interaction strength. We discuss the effects of the finite transverse field and nonadiabatic transitions as imperfection of adiabatic transformation. By taking into account finite time duration for state preparation, sensing, and readout, we also compare performance of the present scheme with a classical scheme in the absence and presence of dephasing.
Dark photon dark matter from a rolling inflaton
Authors: Bastero-Gil Mar , Santiago Jose , Vega-Morales Roberto , Ubaldi Lorenzo 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
We study in detail a recently proposed mechanism for producing non-thermal dark photon dark matter at the end of inflation in the mass range μ eV≲ m ≲ 10 TeV. A tachyonic instability induced by a rolling inflaton leads to the coherent production of dark (abelian) gauge bosons with a peak in the power spectrum corresponding to the Hubble scale at the end of inflation. As the Universe expands after inflation the dark photons redshift and, at some point in their cosmic evolution, they obtain a mass. We focus in particular on the case where the dark photons are relativistic at the time their mass is generated and examine the associated cosmic evolution to compute the relic abundance today. We also examine the late time power spectrum demonstrating explicitly that it preserves the peak generated at the end of inflation. We show that the peak corresponds to small physical scales today, ℓtoday∼ cm-100 km, with large density fluctuations at ℓtoday leading to a clumpy nature for the dark photon dark matter. We also discuss potential phenomenology and future directions, briefly commenting on the non-relativistic case.
Preferential attachment network model with aging and initial attractiveness

Published: February 2022

Abstract
In this paper, we generalize the growing network model with preferential attachment for new links to simultaneously include aging and initial attractiveness of nodes. The network evolves with the addition of a new node per unit time, and each new node has m new links that with probability Π

are connected to nodes i already present in the network. In our model, the preferential attachment probability Π

is proportional not only to k

for large k where the scaling exponent γ increases with the aging parameter α and is linearly correlated with the ratio A/m. Moreover, the average degree k(t

Introducing the multi-dimensional spectral phasors: a tool for the analysis of fluorescence excitation-emission matrices
Authors: Socas L B P , Ambroggio E E 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
The use of phasors to analyze fluorescence data was first introduced for time-resolved studies for a simpler mathematical analysis of the fluorescence-decay curves. Recently, this approach was extended to steady-state experiments with the introduction of the spectral phasors (SP), derived from the Fourier transform of the fluorescence emission spectrum. In this work, we revise key mathematical aspects that lead to an interpretation of SP as the characteristic function of a probability distribution. This formalism allows us to introduce a new tool, called multi-dimensional spectral phasor (MdSP) that seize, not only the information from the emission spectrum, but from the full excitation-emission matrix (EEM). In addition, we developed a homemade open-source Java software to facilitate the MdSP data processing. Due to this mathematical conceptualization, we settled a mechanism for the use of MdSP as a tool to tackle spectral signal unmixing problems in a more accurate way than SP. As a proof of principle, with the use of MdSP we approach two important biophysical questions: protein conformational changes and protein-ligand interactions. Specifically, we experimentally measure the EEM changes upon denaturation of human serum albumin (HSA) or during its association with the fluorescence dye 1,8-anilinonaphtalene sulphate (ANS) detected via tryptophan-ANS Förster Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET). In this sense, MdSP allows us to obtain information of the system in a simpler and finer way than the traditional SP. Specifically, understanding a protein’s EEM as a molecular fingerprint opens new doors for the use of MdSP as a tool to analyze and comprehend protein conformational changes and interactions.
Effects of seawater temperature and NaCl concentration on interlaminar shear behavior of CFRP laminates
Authors: Li Hailin , Chen Huijian , Zhang Wei , Suo Haoyuan 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
The aim of this paper is to study the interlaminar shear behavior of CFRP in critical service conditions. The specimens were immersed in the prepared artificial seawater for 7 months to investigate the ageing time, ambient temperature and salt concentration effects. Analytical balance was used to weight the samples for analyzing the dynamic moisture absorption behavior. Short beam shear tests were carried out to evaluate the interlaminar shear properties. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to observe the ageing damage and failure morphology. The results show that moisture absorption behavior of composites follows Fickian diffusion law. Moisture absorption rate and the maximum absorption content are mainly affected by ambient temperature but not by NaCl concentration. Compared with ageing time and NaCl concentration, the shear stiffness and shear strength are more sensitive to aging environmental temperature. After exposed in 3.5%–70 °C seawater environment for 7 months, the retention rate of shear strength is only 68.8% and the failure displacement decreases by 20.5%. The shear strength increases first and then decreases with the increase of the maximum moisture absorption, which is mainly related to the release of curing shrinking stress and the damage of interface properties. The shear properties degradation after aging is mainly related to the damage of materials induced by environment (delamination, fiber/matrix interface debonding and matrix cracking).
HAp/TiO2 heterojunction catalyst towards low-temperature thermal oxidation of VOC
Authors: Kato Kunihiko , Kobayashi Fumiaki , Xin Yunzi , Nakagawa Sohei , Nishikawa Harumitsu , Shirai Takashi 
Published: February 2022

Abstract
Ceramic catalyst without precious metals and rare-earth elements is a promising technology for removing volatile organic compounds (VOC) produced in the manufacturing process to feasibly solve worldwide health and environmental problems. We first investigate the influence of hydroxyapatite (HAp)/TiO2 heterojunction formation on the temperature dependence of VOC catalytic performance. The comprehensive evaluation by XRD, FT-IR, UV–vis, and in situ ESR clarifies that the anisotropic crystal distortion along the c-axis of HAp lattice is caused by hydrolysis and hetero-condensation of TiO2 precursor accompanying with the defective structure in HAp. The structural modified HAp (m-HAp) provides the notable alteration of optical bandgap with the visible-light coloration and the preferential generation of oxygen radicals. Furthermore, we propose a new model that the m-HAp/TiO2 heterojunction should be a possible main factor affecting the more than twice higher catalytic performance in thermal oxidation of ethyl acetate at a lower temperature, as typically shown in HAp-T1.

Authors: Gan Qiong , Caraway Nancy P , Ding Cady , Stewart John M 
Published: February 2022

Abstract

Objectives
Primary pancreatic lymphoma (PPL) is rare, mimicking pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDAC) clinically and radiologically. The aim of this study is to evaluate the clinical, radiologic, and pathological characteristics of PPL diagnosed by fine-needle aspiration (FNA) in our institution.

Methods
Patient clinical, radiologic, and pathological information was collected from the electronic health record system.

Results
In total, 11 of 4,353 pancreatic FNAs met the criteria. The most common clinical symptom was jaundice, followed by abdominal pain, weight loss, and diarrhea. Abnormal laboratory findings included elevated alkaline phosphatase, total bilirubin, lactate dehydrogenase, and cancer antigen 19-9. Abnormal radiologic findings included pancreatic mass, biliary dilatation, vessel encasement, and common bile duct encasement and thickening. Five patients underwent more than 1 tissue sampling procedure before the final diagnosis of lymphoma. Final pathologic diagnosis included 7 large B-cell lymphomas and 4 follicular lymphomas. Flow cytometric analysis was performed on 9 specimens, and all demonstrated an aberrant monoclonal B-cell population.

Conclusions
PPL mimics PDAC clinically and radiologically and could be a challenge for pathologic diagnosis if lymphoma is not included in the differential diagnosis during immediate evaluation. If lymphoma is suspected during immediate evaluation, PPL could be reliably diagnosed by FNA with the aid of ancillary studies.
Promoting β-lactam utilization through suppression of electronic medical record cross-allergy alerts
Authors: Boesch Teryl S , Eischen Edward , Ries Amanda M , Quinn Andrea , Dave Ankur , Beezhold David W 
Published: February 2022

Abstract

Purpose
Current literature surrounding management of patients with reported β-lactam allergies focuses on allergy delabeling. Standard clinical decision support tools have not been optimized to be compatible with the currently accepted cross-reaction rate of 1% to 2%. This potentially promotes use of non–β-lactam antibiotics, which are often not first-line therapy and may carry increased risks. The impact of electronic medical record (EMR) clinical decision support tool optimization on utilization of β-lactam antibiotics in β-lactam–allergic patients was evaluated.

Methods
A retrospective pre-post β-lactam cross-allergy EMR alert suppression quality improvement intervention cohort study of β-lactam–allergic adult inpatients prescribed antibiotics was conducted. Preintervention baseline data were collected for an initial cohort admitted during September 2018. The intervention, in which clinical decision support rules were updated to display β-lactam cross-sensitivity allergy alerts only for β-lactam–allergic patients with documentation of organization-defined high-severity reactions of anaphylaxis, hives, and shortness of breath, was implemented August 20, 2019. The postintervention cohort included patients admitted during September 2019.

Results
A 91% increase in the percentage of β-lactam–allergic patients who received a β-lactam agent at any time during their admission was noted after the intervention (26.6% vs 51%, P &lt; 0.001). Statistically significant decreases in prescribing of alternative antibiotic classes were seen for fluoroquinolones (decrease from 45.3% to 26%, P &lt; 0.001), aminoglycosides (decrease from 9.4% to 2.9%, P = 0.002), and aztreonam (decrease from 30% to 16.7%, P &lt; 0.001).

Conclusion
EMR β-lactam cross-allergy alert optimization consistent with current literature significantly improved the utilization of alternative β-lactam subclasses, mostly through β-lactam prescribing as initial therapy in β-lactam–allergic patients.
