description: The small wavenumber $k$ behavior of the structure factor $S(k)$ of overcompressed amorphous hard-sphere configurations was previously studied for a wide range of densities up to the maximally random jammed state, which can be viewed as a prototypical glassy state [A. Hopkins, F. H. Stillinger and S. Torquato, Phys. Rev. E, 86, 021505 (2012)]. It was found that a precursor to the glassy jammed state was evident long before the jamming density was reached as measured by a growing nonequilibrium length scale extracted from the volume integral of the direct correlation function $c(r)$, which becomes long-ranged as the critical jammed state is reached. The present study extends that work by investigating via computer simulations two different atomic models: the single-component Z2 Dzugutov potential in three dimensions and the binary-mixture Kob-Andersen potential in two dimensions. Consistent with the aforementioned hard-sphere study, we demonstrate that for both models a signature of the glass transition is apparent well before the transition temperature is reached as measured by the length scale determined from from the volume integral of the direct correlation function in the single-component case and a generalized direct correlation function in the binary-mixture case. The latter quantity is obtained from a generalized Orstein-Zernike integral equation for a certain decoration of the atomic point configuration. We also show that these growing length scales, which are a consequence of the long-range nature of the direct correlation functions, are intrinsically nonequilibrium in nature as determined by an index $X$ that is a measure of deviation from thermal equilibrium. It is also demonstrated that this nonequilibrium index, which increases upon supercooling, is correlated with a characteristic relaxation time scale.

title: The Educational Value of Zoos and Aquariums
Creators: name: Moss, Andrew
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2017

description: Zoos and aquariums are some of the most-visited institutions, with around 700 million visits made to them globally each year. They are, in a basic sense, simply repositories of living biodiversity. However, the justifications for the continued existence of zoos have evolved since their inception in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, and nearly all now position themselves as organisations focussed on the conservation of the world's remaining biodiversity. Public education of visitors is seen as, and is claimed to be, a central role in achieving this mission. Until relatively recently, very little was known about the impacts of zoo-based education. In this thesis, I will argue that good, progressive zoos and aquariums can and do achieve positive educational impacts on the people that visit them. Using a combination of structured observational methods and traditional social survey designs, I have explored the relative popularity of zoo animals, assessed the tolerance of zoo visitors to different environmental education themes, and have conducted the first fully global evaluation of zoo education impacts. In brief, I found that taxonomic group (mammals), increasing body size and activity levels were significant predictors of visitor interest in zoo animals, giving zoo professionals an evidence base to make decisions regarding education programming and exhibit design. Zoo visitors were also found to be, in the main, accepting to education content that reached beyond animal-based themes. This gives zoo educators the evidence to support their efforts to design and deliver more diverse programmes that cover wider environmental education themes. Finally, from a global survey of more than 5,000 visitors to 26 zoos and aquariums, I concluded that people tend to end their visit with a significantly greater understanding of what biodiversity is, as well as the ways that they personally can help protect it. The links between these two knowledge strands were, however, found to be less strong than predicted, leading to a discussion around the significance of the role of knowledge in catalysing human behaviour change. Aside from demonstrating their own positive educational impact, the wider implication of this research is that zoos and aquariums can also show that they are helping to achieve global biodiversity targets; namely, UN Aichi Biodiversity Target 1. From this, I will argue that the educational role of zoos should be considered as a more influential contributor to biodiversity conservation, and society more generally, than has previously been accepted.

title: Corporate capital structure: the role of management and corporate governance during the crisis
Creators: name: Σαρρη Σταυρουλα
Publisher: name: Technical University of Crete
Year: 2018

description: Capital structure is a well-researched topic; however, the recent financial crisis highlighted that there are various issues, which deserve further investigation. Within this context, it is not surprising that the irrationally high leverage levels of America’s largest firms turned the spotlight on corporate leverage theories and their empirical testing. The current thesis examines the impact of corporate governance and managerial attributes on firm leverage. Such an investigation is of particular interest for two reasons. First, corporate leverage is actually being determined by managerial decisions. Second, inadequate managerial decision making was one of the main drivers behind the recent crisis. The present thesis focuses on three specific attributes of corporate governance and management, those being: the board of directors’ genetic diversity, managerial ability and management practices.
The analysis of cross-country data leads to several interesting conclusions. First, I find a significant and negative effect of the genetic diversity of board of directors’ on the firms’ leverage, stating that heterogeneity inside the boardroom reduces firm’s debt, although it tends to increase disputes (Frijns et al., 2016). Second, the results show that managerial ability, as measured by Demerjian et al. (2012), has a positive impact on corporate capital structure both in regular and crisis periods. One potential explanation is that debt financing is preferred by more able managers (as regards firm revenues), in contrast to prior research advocating managers opposition to debt for maximizing their tenures (Bertrand & Schoar, 2003; Berger et al., 1997). Third, good management practices, as defined by the World Management Survey (WMS), positively affect corporate capital structure. This could be attributed to the positive influence of management practices, on firm performance, innovation and employment rates (Bloom & Van Reenen, 2007; Bloom et al., 2013). Overall, the present thesis contributes to the literature by bringing together the capital structure and the corporate governance literature, and by providing new insights that extend our understanding of the “capital structure puzzle”.

description: In today’s world with the change in work environment the academic researcher demands the high tech support and easy access to information along with peaceful work environment. Clearly, cubicles in past were designed with the intention to provide the privacy, encourage collaboration in teams and allow space for keeping some documents. This study explains the causes of distraction at workplace which affect the researcher engagement and for that small sampling size is considered based on purposive sampling. To collect required information one on one interviews were conducted and closed ended questionnaire were filled by the respondent based on Likert scale i:e 5 means strongly agree and 1 means strongly disagree. The outcome concludes that open-plan office and small cubicle design has seriously affected the working environment due to number of reasons such as noise, lack of privacy, unsupportive staff and continuous interruption. However, university policies related to distraction need to be given serious attention such as comfortable working environment, consultation policies for students, good relation between management etc. to encourage high performance.

description: We present the Josephson junction intersected superconducting transmission line resonator. In contrast to the Josephson parametric amplifier, Josephson bifurcation amplifier and Josephson parametric converter we consider the regime of few microwave photons. We review the derivation of eigenmode frequencies and zero point fluctuations of the nonlinear transmission line resonator and the derivation of the eigenmode Kerr nonlinearities. Remarkably these nonlinearities can reach values comparable to Transmon qubits rendering the device ideal for accessing the strongly correlated regime. This is particularly interesting for investigation of quantum many-body dynamics of interacting particles under the influence of drive and dissipation. We provide current profiles for the device modes and investigate the coupling between resonators in a network of nonlinear transmission line resonators.

There are several groups appearing, either as special holonomy groups on the compactification process from higher dimensions, or as dynamical string gauge groups; this includes groups like SU(2),SU(3), G_2, Spin(7), SO(8) as well as E_8 and SO(32). We emphasize also the relation of these hexagonal structures with the octonion division algebra, as we expect as well eventually some role for octonions in the interpretation of symmetries in High Energy Physics.

description: Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) is a systematic, analytical process for assessing the environmental implications of systems or products, from raw material extraction (or “cradle”) through manufacture, use, and end of life (the “grave”). Though it is clear that LCA results are subject to many sources of uncertainty, it is also important to know to what extent the outcome of such an analysis is affected by various types of uncertainty (such as parameter, scenario and model uncertainty) and may occur in the goal and scope definition, the inventory analysis and the impact assessment of an LCA. Proper evaluation of the inherent uncertainties provides useful information for the reliability of LCA-based decisions and a necessary guide for future minimization of inaccuracies. The selection of a proper technique is largely based on the type and extent of details required by the specific case-study (i.e. sensitivity analysis, Monte Carlo simulation, Markov chain, Multiple linear regression, Fuzzy set theory and fuzzy logic, etc.).
There have been several attempts to spot and highlight various statistical-stochastic uncertainties in LCA, as they are increasingly affecting the relevant methodologies, databases and software. The thesis contains a detailed LCA and techno-economic study of selected Renewable Energy Systems: geothermal power plants, photovoltaics (thin-film and crystalline) and solar thermal collectors (flat plate and vacuum tube). The advanced software SimaPro accompanied with the updated ecoinvent database have been used for the implementation of the LCA case studies, while all technical and economic calculations have been performed through RETSCreen.

Publisher: name: Technical University of Crete
Year: 2018

description: The wide deployment of Vehicle Automation and Communication Systems (VACS) in the following decade is expected to affect traffic performance on freeways. Apart from safety and comfort, one of the goals is the alleviation of traffic congestion that is a major and challenging problem for modern societies. This thesis investigates the integrated use of two feedback control strategies utilizing VACS in different penetration rates, aiming at maximising throughput at bottleneck locations. The first control strategy employs mainstream traffic flow control using appropriate variable speed limits as an actuator. The second control strategy delivers appropriate lane-changing actions to selected connected vehicles using a feedback-feedforward control law. Investigations of the proposed integrated scheme have been conducted using a microscopic simulation model for a hypothetical freeway featuring a lane-drop bottleneck. The produced results demonstrate significant improvements even for low penetration rates.

description: The first part of this paper exposits a simple geometric description of the Kirby-Siebenmann invariant of a 4--manifold in terms of a quadratic refinement of its intersection form. This is the first in a sequence of higher-order intersection invariants of Whitney towers studied by the authors, particularly for the 4--ball. In the second part of this paper, a general theory of quadratic forms is developed and then specialized from the non-commutative to the commutative to finally, the symmetric settings. The intersection invariant for twisted Whitney towers is shown to be the universal symmetric refinement of the framed intersection invariant. As a corollary we obtain a short exact sequence that has been essential in the understanding of Whitney towers in the 4--ball.

description: The book deals with a complex subject, although far from new, which is the intersection between intellectual property (IP) and competition law. Indeed, exclusive rights confer market power and restrict competition temporarily. Along these lines, Emanuela Arezzo, Associate Professor of Commercial Law at the Faculty of Law of the University of Teramo (Italy) and winner of the Jean Monnet Chair in EU Innovation Law & Policy (2023-2026), focuses on the pharmaceutical sector, mostly from the point of view of European Union Law and its Institutions (as opposed, in particular, to the regime of the United States of America). The book highlights recent behaviour trends in this sector, specifically, the building and exploration of patent portfolios.

Verticalization of data sharing and the difficult path to eunnovation
Creators: name: Ünekbaş, Selçukhan
Publisher: name: Market and Competition Law Review
Year: 2023

description: Data sharing has been offered as a useful tool to open up impregnable markets to competition. EU law has a rich tradition in enabling business-to-business data sharing in a sector-specific (or vertical) fashion, which has formed the basis of the quest for an internal market where data flows freely. Two recent legislative instruments, the Digital Markets Act and the Data Act, contain industry- and actor-specific data sharing provisions. By unleashing troves of data hoarded by large incumbents, the Acts aspire to empower small and medium-sized enterprises, unlocking organic innovation. Notwithstanding the normative desirability of such a goal, it is unclear whether verticalized rules on data sharing can foster innovation by entrants and smaller undertakings. This Article legally and economically appraises the Acts to shed light on this issue. Read together, the data sharing provisions under the Digital Markets Act and the Data Act pursue the common aim of spurring disruptive (market creating) and complementary innovation. However, the Acts suffer from legal uncertainty and are liable to produce unintended economic consequences, such as diminishing the ability of complementors to satisfy consumers whilst simultaneously strengthening incumbent platform operators. The conclusions cast doubt on whether the vertical data sharing rules of the Acts can achieve their intended objectives, that is, ensuring the contestability of digital markets by promoting organic innovation by smaller scale firms.

description: We extend the Andrews-Olsson identity to two-colored partitions. Regarding the sets of proper Young walls of quantum affine algebras $\g_n=A^{(2)}_{2n}$, $A^{(2)}_{2n-1}$, $B^{(1)}_{n}$, $D^{(1)}_{n}$ and $D^{(2)}_{n+1}$ as the sets of two-colored partitions, the extended Andrews-Olsson identity implies that the generating functions of the sets of reduced Young walls have very simple formulae: \begin{center} $\prod^{\infty}_{i=1}(1+t^i)^{κ_i}$ where $κ_i=0$, $1$ or $2$, and $κ_i$ varies periodically. \end{center} Moreover, we generalize the Bessenrodt's algorithms to prove the extended Andrews-Olsson identity in an alternative way. From these algorithms, we can give crystal structures on certain subsets of pair of strict partitions which are isomorphic to the crystal bases $B(Λ)$ of the level $1$ highest weight modules $V(Λ)$ over $U_q(\g_n)$.

description: Nickel silicide Schottky diodes formed on polycrystalline Si films are proposed as temperature sensors of monolithic uncooled microbolometer IR focal plane arrays. Structure and composition of nickel silicide/polycrystalline silicon films synthesized in a low-temperature process are examined by means of transmission electron microscopy. The Ni silicide is identified as multi-phase compound composed by 20 to 40% of Ni3Si, 30 to 60% of Ni2Si and 10 to 30% of NiSi with probable minor content of NiSi2 at the silicide/poly-Si interface. Rectification ratios of the Schottky diodes vary from ~100 to ~20 for the temperature increasing from 22 to 70C; they exceed 1000 at 80K. A barrier of ~0.95 eV is found to control the photovoltage spectra at room temperature. A set of barriers is observed in photo-emf spectra at 80K and attributed to the Ni-silicide/poly-Si interface. Absolute values of temperature coefficients of voltage and current are found to vary from 0.3 to 0.6%/K for forward biasing and around 2.5%/K for reverse biasing of the diodes.

Limits, limitations, and outer boundaries of antitrust: censorship, free speech, and dominance
Creators: name: Polański, Jan
Publisher: name: Market and Competition Law Review
Year: 2023

description: Big Tech undertakings have much power over what information becomes available online. Concerns have been voiced in this context that some of their content moderation practices may amount to private censorship and a restriction of free speech. Antitrust enforcement could be looked at as one of possible remedies to the risks associated with the use of market power to stifle free speech, since the prohibition of abuse of dominant position is very open-textured. Still, even assuming that an undertaking is dominant, antitrust has its limits and limitations which put free speech cases closer to the outer boundaries of antitrust rather than its core. This article explores those outer boundaries of antitrust and speculates whether private censorship could be framed as an abuse of dominant position. To do so, it discusses the limits and limitations of antitrust and then provides five perspectives from which private censorship could be looked at under antitrust. It concludes that while free speech might seem to constitute a political interest of no relevance to orthodox antitrust enforcement, it is possible to consider it under antitrust to relieve some social tensions generated by mostly unchecked power of large undertakings over speech. While a classic consumer welfare standard perspective can be preserved, more novel types of approaches also remain available, yet they would likely face similar problems as those discussed in the article, i.e., the problem of designing workable standards of assessment.

description: Supergiant fast X-ray transients (SFXTs) are a class of high-mass X-ray binaries with possible counterparts in the high energy gamma rays. The Swift SFXT Project has conducted a systematic investigation of the properties of SFTXs on timescales ranging from minutes to years and in several intensity states (from bright flares, to intermediate intensity states, and down to almost quiescence). We also performed broad-band spectroscopy of outbursts, and intensity-selected spectroscopy outside of outbursts. We demonstrated that while the brightest phase of the outburst only lasts a few hours, further activity is observed at lower fluxes for a remarkably longer time, up to weeks. Furthermore, we assessed the fraction of the time these sources spend in each phase, and their duty cycle of inactivity. We present the most recent results from our investigation. The spectroscopic and, most importantly, timing properties of SFXTs we have uncovered with Swift will serve as a guide in search for the high energy emission from these enigmatic objects.

description: The rotation rates of main-sequence stars slow over time as they gradually lose angular momentum to their magnetized stellar winds. The rate of angular momentum loss depends on the strength and morphology of the magnetic field, the mass-loss rate, and the stellar rotation period, mass, and radius. Previous observations revealed a shift in magnetic morphology between two F-type stars with comparable rotation rates but very different ages. We confirm a similar transition in several well-characterized solar analogs with ages between 2 and 7 Gyr. We present new spectropolarimetry of 18 Sco and 16 Cyg A & B from the Large Binocular Telescope, and we reanalyze previously published Zeeman Doppler images of HD 76151 and 18 Sco to confirm a shift in magnetic morphology near the middle of main-sequence lifetimes. We combine archival X-ray observations with updated distances from Gaia to estimate mass-loss rates, and we adopt precise stellar properties from asteroseismology and other sources. We then calculate the wind braking torque for each star in the evolutionary sequence, and we assess the uncertainties that arise from errors in the observational inputs. We conclude that the shift in magnetic morphology occurs before the age of the Sun, reinforcing the notion that the solar dynamo may be in a transitional evolutionary phase. We suggest that this magnetic transition may represent a disruption of the global dynamo arising from weaker differential rotation, and we outline our plans to probe this behavior in additional stars spanning a wide range of spectral types.

description: We report simulation results for turbulent magnetic reconnection obtained using a newly developed Reynolds-averaged magnetohydrodynamics model. We find that the initial Harris current sheet develops in three ways, depending on the strength of turbulence: laminar reconnection, turbulent reconnection, and turbulent diffusion. The turbulent reconnection explosively converts the magnetic field energy into both kinetic and thermal energy of plasmas, and generates open fast reconnection jets. This fast turbulent reconnection is achieved by the localization of turbulent diffusion. Additionally, localized structure forms through the interaction of the mean field and turbulence.

description: We have obtained time series observations of the Orion Nebula Cluster at 70 microns and 160 microns from the Herschel/PACS Photometer. This represents the first wide-field far-infrared photometric monitoring of a young star forming region. The acquired 35'x35' maps show complex extended structures, with unprecedented details, that trace the interaction between the molecular gas and the young hot stars. We detect 43 protostars, most of which are situated along the integral-shaped filament extending from the Orion nebula, through OMC2 and to OMC3. We present high-reliability light curves for some of these objects using the first six epochs of our observing program spread over 6 weeks. We find amplitude variations in excess of 20% for a fraction of the detected protostars over periods as short as a few weeks. This is inconsistent with the dynamical time-scales of cool far-IR emitting material that orbits at hundreds of AU from the protostar, and it suggests that the mechanism(s) responsible for the observed variability originates from the inner region of the protostars, likely driven by variable mass accretion.

description: The poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase (PARP) inhibitors play a crucial role in cancer therapy. However, most approved PARP inhibitors cannot cross the blood-brain barrier, thus limiting their application in the central nervous system. Here, 55 benzodiazepines were designed and synthesised to screen brain penetrating PARP-1 inhibitors. All target compounds were evaluated for their PARP-1 inhibition activity, and compounds with better activity were selected for further assays in vitro. Among them, compounds H34, H42, H48, and H52 displayed acceptable inhibition effects on breast cancer cells. Also, computational prediction together with the permeability assays in vitro and in vivo proved that the benzodiazepine PARP-1 inhibitors we synthesised were brain permeable. Compound H52 exhibited a B/P ratio of 40 times higher than that of Rucaparib and would be selected to develop its potential use in neurodegenerative diseases. Our study provided potential lead compounds and design strategies for the development of brain penetrating PARP-1 inhibitors.HIGHLIGHTSStructural fusion was used to screen brain penetrating PARP-1 inhibitors.55 benzodiazepines were evaluated for their PARP-1 inhibition activity.Four compounds displayed acceptable inhibition effects on breast cancer cells.The benzodiazepine PARP-1 inhibitors were proved to be brain permeable.

title: Adaptive potential and signatures of natural selection in the globally introduced ringneck parakeet Psittacula krameri

description: Anthropogenic impact, through animal trade, climate change, habitat fragmentation and globalisation, is a principal cause of global species redistributions and community rearrangements. Species introduced accidently or intentionally to non-native ranges may adapt to survive and proliferate, and native species threatened by environmental change may need to adapt in situ, or track more tolerable conditions through extra-range dispersal. Under both scenarios, we must facilitate greater understanding of the mechanisms that underlie adaptation within a complexity of ecosystem dynamics, which in turn will inform management strategies for both introduced species, and preserving biodiversity. Here, I explore mechanisms that support adaptive potential to rapid environmental change across taxa, and model them to the introduced ringneck parakeet Psittacula krameri. This species has recently successfully traversed extensive climate gradients in establishing introduced global populations. Some of this success may be attributable to morphological, behavioural, physiological or phenological adaptations, and therefore the species represents an opportunity for exploring rapid adaptation. I initially review the navigation of dispersal and invasive pathways, and the importance of specific character traits toward adaptive potential, before identifying genetic and non-genetic adaptive mechanisms (pertinent across taxa) that may help explain observed establishment and population growth of the ringneck parakeet. Mutations as the basis for an evolutionary adaptive response are examined, alongside the significance that the origin and extent of such polymorphisms may have toward a rapid adaptive response. I consider the role of selective sweeps and polygenic models as genetic processes for an adaptive response, alongside non-genetic mechanisms such as phenotypic plasticity and epigenetics that may better support rapid adaptation. Finally, I assess avian literature to interpret genetic and plastic responses as explanations for adaptive potential

Unbalanced power relationship in digital markets between platforms and their complementors: can consumers come to the rescue?
Creators: name: Mouton, Jeanne
Publisher: name: Market and Competition Law Review
Year: 2023

description: Acknowledging the unbalanced power relationship between online platforms and their complementors, the economic dependence relationship and fear of retaliation may prevent complementors from fighting against economically harmful practices implemented by online dominant platforms. The economic dependence relationship and fear of retaliation are illustrated by past antitrust cases on both sides of the Atlantic. Having set the scene in which complementors might be disincentivised to take up legal actions facing anticompetitive practices, this paper takes the example of two distortions of information practices, implemented by dominant online platforms, that are harmful to both consumers and complementors: dark patterns and ranking biased by fake reviews. Under the angle of consumer empowerment (through direct complaints) and consumer-oriented enforcement (relying on competition law, the UCPD, and the Digital Services Act Package), this paper shows that consumer empowerment and consumer-oriented enforcement of distortion of information practices can produce a positive externality for complementors. Sole claims for damages have the lowest probability of producing a positive externality unless they act as a signal against an obligation non-implemented by an online platform. Injunctions and commitments have the highest probability of producing a positive externality for complementors. However, one of the constraints of this proposal may be the limited detectability of these practices by consumers.

description: In this communication, we focus on the possibility to test General Relativity (GR) with radioscience experiments. We present simulations of observables performed in alternative theories of gravity using a software that simulates Range/Doppler signals directly from the space time metric. This software allows one to get the order of magnitude and the signature of the modifications induced by an alternative theory of gravity on radioscience signals. As examples, we present some simulations for the Cassini mission in Post-Einsteinian gravity (PEG) and with Standard Model Extension (SME).
