description: The magnetic ground state of two isostructural coordination polymers (i) the quasi two-dimensional S = 1/2 square-lattice antiferromagnet [Cu(HF$_{2}$)(pyrazine)$_{2}$]SbF$_{6}$; and (ii) a new compound [Co(HF$_{2}$)(pyrazine)$_{2}$]SbF$_{6}$, were examined with neutron powder diffraction measurements. We find the ordered moments of the Heisenberg S = 1/2 Cu(II) ions in [Cu(HF$_{2}$)(pyrazine)$_{2}$]SbF$_{6}$ are 0.6(1)$μ_{B}$, whilst the ordered moments for the Co(II) ions in [Co(HF$_{2}$)(pyrazine)$_{2}$]SbF$_{6}$ are 3.02(6)$μ_{B}$. For Cu(II), this reduced moment indicates the presence of quantum fluctuations below the ordering temperature. We show from heat capacity and electron spin resonance measurements, that due to the crystal electric field splitting of the S = 3/2 Co(II) ions in [Co(HF$_{2}$)(pyrazine)$_{2}$]SbF$_{6}$, this isostructual polymer also behaves as an effective spin-half magnet at low temperatures. The Co moments in [Co(HF$_{2}$)(pyrazine)$_{2}$]SbF$_{6}$ show strong easy-axis anisotropy, neutron diffraction data which do not support the presence of quantum fluctuations in the ground state and heat capacity data which are consistent with 2D or close to 3D spatial exchange anisotropy.

description: Transient, elevated concentrations of extracellular dopamine were characterized in the dorsal and ventral striatum of male rats during solitude, brief interaction with a conspecific, and copulation. Conspecific rats were systematically presented to male rats and allowed to interact for 30 sec; the males were kept in solitude between each presentation. During these episodes, 125 dopamine concentration transients from 17 rats were detected with fast-scan cyclic voltammetry at carbon-fiber microelectrodes (peak amplitude, 210 +/- 10 nm; duration, 530 +/- 20 msec). The frequency of dopamine transients increased sixfold during conspecific episodes compared with solitude. However, the phasic dopamine activity habituated on the second presentation of the conspecifics. When males were allowed to copulate with receptive females, additional dopamine transients were observed at frequencies approximately 20% of those during the previous interaction episodes. A subset of these transients immediately preceded intromission. Overall, phasic dopamine activity appeared to be associated with input from multiple sensory modalities and was followed by a variety of approach and appetitive behaviors, consistent with electrophysiological observations of dopaminergic neuron burst-firing. In summary, (1) dopamine concentration transients occur in awake rats during solitude, in the absence of overt external cues; (2) dopamine transients are significantly more frequent in the presence of a conspecific, although this effect habituates; and (3) dopamine transients are less frequent during copulation than during brief conspecific episodes. These results establish for the first time that transient dopamine fluctuations occur throughout the dorsal and ventral striatum and demonstrate that they are more frequent with salient stimuli that elicit a response behavior.

Technology and Student Learning

For educators to move into the twenty first century, they need to let go of the past and integrate aspects of technology which support student learning. This allows today’s learners an opportunity to explore how to think and learn and not what to think and learn. There needs to be a pedagogical shift into teaching with technology and away from solely traditional practices. Teachers use technology in a variety of ways and to varying degrees. This was demonstrated through referencing the SAMR model. The keys to technological integration lie in incorporating technology into assessments, teaching digital literacy skills and utilizing technology more frequently in teacher education programs.

description: Rectification of microwave oscillations of magnetization in a permalloy film is realized using planar Hall effect. Two different rectified signals are obtained: a signal from the linearly excited uniform magnetization precession at the frequency of the external pumping and a signal from the pairs of contra-propagating short-wavelength spin waves parametrically generated at a half of the pumping frequency. The second, most unusual, rectified signal is caused by the uniform component of the dynamic magnetization created due to the interference of the phase correlated pairs of parametric spin waves.

description: The Standard Model Higgs potential becomes unstable at large field values. After clarifying the issue of gauge dependence of the effective potential, we study the cosmological evolution of the Higgs field in presence of this instability throughout inflation, reheating and the present epoch. We conclude that anti-de Sitter patches in which the Higgs field lies at its true vacuum are lethal for our universe. From this result, we derive upper bounds on the Hubble constant during inflation, which depend on the reheating temperature and on the Higgs coupling to the scalar curvature or to the inflaton. Finally we study how a speculative link between Higgs meta-stability and consistence of quantum gravity leads to a sharp prediction for the Higgs and top masses, which is consistent with measured values.

description: Increasing evidence indicates that insulin-like growth factor-I (IGF-I) has an important role in oligodendrocyte development. In this study, we examined myelination during postnatal development in IGF-I knock-out (KO) mice by assessing myelin staining, the expression of myelin basic protein (MBP) and proteolipid protein (PLP), two major myelin-specific proteins, and the number of oligodendrocytes and their precursors. For comparison, we also measured the expression of median subunit of the neuron-specific intermediate filament, M-neurofilament (M-NF), to obtain an index of the effects of IGF-I deficiency on neurons. We found that myelin staining, MBP and PLP expression, and the percentage of oligodendrocytes and their precursors are significantly reduced in all brain regions of developing IGF-I KO mice but are similar to controls in adult IGF-I KO mice. In contrast, the abundance of M-NF was decreased in both the developing and adult brain of IGF-I KO mice. We also found that IGF-II protein abundance is increased in the brains of IGF-I KO mice. Our data indicate, therefore, that myelination during early development is altered in the absence of IGF-I by mechanisms that involve a reduction in oligodendrocyte proliferation and development. Although neuronal actions cannot be excluded in the myelin normalization, the reduced axonal growth suggested by the reduced M-NF expression makes a role for neuronal factors less compelling. These data suggest that IGF-I plays a significant role in myelination during normal early development and that IGF-II can compensate in part for IGF-I actions on myelination.

Search for production of vector-like quark pairs and of four top quarks in the lepton-plus-jets final state in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV with the ATLAS detector

description: A search for pair production of vector-like quarks, both up-type ($T$) and down-type ($B$), as well as for four-top-quark production, is presented. The search is based on $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV recorded in 2012 with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider and corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb$^{-1}$. Data are analysed in the lepton-plus-jets final state, characterised by an isolated electron or muon with high transverse momentum, large missing transverse momentum and multiple jets. Dedicated analyses are performed targeting three cases: a $T$ quark with significant branching ratio to a $W$ boson and a $b$-quark ($T\bar{T} \to Wb$+X), and both a $T$ quark and a $B$ quark with significant branching ratio to a Higgs boson and a third-generation quark ($T\bar{T} \to Ht$+X and $B\bar{B} \to Hb$+X respectively). No significant excess of events above the Standard Model expectation is observed, and 95% CL lower limits are derived on the masses of the vector-like $T$ and $B$ quarks under several branching ratio hypotheses assuming contributions from $T \to Wb$, $Zt$, $Ht$ and $B \to Wt$, $Zb$, $Hb$ decays. The 95% CL observed lower limits on the $T$ quark mass range between 715 GeV and 950 GeV for all possible values of the branching ratios into the three decay modes, and are the most stringent constraints to date. Additionally, the most restrictive upper bounds on four-top-quark production are set in a number of new physics scenarios.

description: The genetic demyelinating mouse "twitcher" is a model of the human globoid cell leukodystrophy, caused by galactosylceramidase (GALC) deficiency. Demyelination in the twitcher brain is secondary to apoptotic death of oligodendrocytes (OLs). Lipocalin-type prostaglandin (PG) D synthase (L-PGDS), a protein expressed in mature OLs, was progressively upregulated in twitcher OLs; whereas expression of OL-associated proteins such as carbonic anhydrase II, myelin basic protein, and myelin-associated glycoprotein was downregulated during demyelination in twitcher brains. The upregulation of L-PGDS was more remarkable in perineuronal OLs than in interfascicular OLs. A larger number of L-PGDS-positive OLs was found in selected fiber tracts of twitcher brains where fewer apoptotic cells were detected. The distribution of L-PGDS-positive OLs was inversely related to the severity of demyelination, as assessed by accumulation of scavenger macrophages. Mice doubly deficient for L-PGDS and GALC disclosed a large number of apoptotic neurons, which were never seen in twitcher brains, in addition to an increased number of apoptotic OLs. A linear positive correlation was observed between the population of L-PGDS-positive OLs in the twitcher brain and the ratio of apoptotic nuclei in the double mutant versus those in the twitcher, suggesting a dose-dependent effect of L-PGDS against apoptosis. These lines of evidence suggest that L-PGDS is an anti-apoptotic molecule protecting neurons and OLs from apoptosis in the twitcher mouse. This is a novel example of OL-neuronal interaction.

description: We suggest that the lithiation of pristine SnO forms a layered Li$_\text{X}$O structure while the expelled tin atoms agglomerate into 'surface' planes separating the Li$_\text{X}$O layers. The proposed lithiation model widely differs from the common assumption that tin segregates into nano-clusters embedded in the lithia matrix. With this model we are able to account for the various tin bonds that are seen experimentally and explain the three volume expansion phases that occur when SnO undergoes lithiation: (i) at low concentrations Li behaves as an intercalated species inducing small volume increases; (ii) for intermediate concentrations SnO transforms into lithia causing a large expansion; (iii) finally, as the Li concentration further increases a saturation of the lithia takes place until a layered Li$_2$O is formed. A moderate volume expansion results from this last process. We also report a 'zipper' nucleation mechanism that could provide the seed for the transformation from tin oxide to lithium oxide.

description: Shear deformation of partially molten rock in laboratory experiments causes the emergence of melt-enriched sheets (bands in cross-section) that are aligned at about 15-20 degrees to the shear plane. Deformation and deviatoric stress also cause the coherent alignment of pores at the grain scale. This leads to a melt-preferred orientation that may, in turn, give rise to an anisotropic permeability. Here we develop a simple, general model of anisotropic permeability in partially molten rocks. We use linearised analysis and nonlinear numerical solutions to investigate its behaviour under simple-shear deformation. In particular, we consider implications of the model for the emergence and angle of melt-rich bands. Anisotropic permeability affects the angle of bands and, in a certain parameter regime, it can give rise to low angles consistent with experiments. However, the conditions required for this regime have a narrow range and seem unlikely to be entirely met by experiments. Anisotropic permeability may nonetheless affect melt transport and the behaviour of partially molten rocks in Earth's mantle.

description: Larger dorsal root ganglion neurons are stained by an antibody for the C terminus of glutamate receptor subunit 2 (GluR2) and GluR3 (GluR2/3) rather than by an antibody for GluR4. In dorsal roots, anti-GluR2/3 stains predominantly myelinated fibers; anti-GluR4 or anti-GluR2/4 stains predominantly unmyelinated fibers. In the dorsal horn, puncta immunopositive for synaptophysin and GluR2/3 are predominantly in laminas III and IV, whereas puncta immunopositive for synaptophysin and GluR4 or GluR2/4 are predominantly in laminas I and II. Puncta immunopositive for GluR2/3 costain with the B subunit of cholera toxin, whereas puncta immunopositive for GluR2/4 costain with isolectin B4 after injections of these tracers in the sciatic nerve. No puncta costain with calcitonin gene-related peptide and AMPA receptor subunits. Electron microscopy indicates that AMPA receptor-immunopositive terminals are more numerous than suggested by confocal microscopy. Of all synapses in which immunostaining is presynaptic, postsynaptic, or both, the percentage of presynaptic immunostain is approximately 70% with anti-GluR4 or anti-GluR2/4 (in laminas I-III), 25-30% with anti-GluR2/3 (in laminas III and IV), and 5% with anti-GluR2 (in laminas I-III). Because of fixation constraints, the types of immunostained terminals could be identified only on the basis of morphological characteristics. Many terminals immunostained for GluR2/3, GluR4, or GluR2/4 have morphological features of endings of primary afferents. Terminals with morphological characteristics of presumed GABAergic terminals are also immunostained with anti-GluR2/4 and anti-GluR4 in laminas I and II and with anti-GluR2/3 in laminas III and IV. The conspicuous and selective expression of presynaptic AMPA receptor subunits may contribute to the characteristic physiological profile of different classes of primary afferents and suggests an important mechanism for the modulation of transmitter release by terminals of both myelinated and unmyelinated primary afferents.

description: Comprising over 15 000 living species, decapods (crabs, shrimp and lobsters) are the most instantly recognizable crustaceans, representing a considerable global food source. Although decapod systematics have received much study, limitations of morphological and Sanger sequence data have yet to produce a consensus for higher-level relationships. Here, we introduce a new anchored hybrid enrichment kit for decapod phylogenetics designed from genomic and transcriptomic sequences that we used to capture new high-throughput sequence data from 94 species, including 58 of 179 extant decapod families, and 11 of 12 major lineages. The enrichment kit yields 410 loci (greater than 86 000 bp) conserved across all lineages of Decapoda, more clade-specific molecular data than any prior study. Phylogenomic analyses recover a robust decapod tree of life strongly supporting the monophyly of all infraorders, and monophyly of each of the reptant, ‘lobster’ and ‘crab’ groups, with some results supporting pleocyemate monophyly. We show that crown decapods diverged in the Late Ordovician and most crown lineages diverged in the Triassic–Jurassic, highlighting a cryptic Paleozoic history, and post-extinction diversification. New insights into decapod relationships provide a phylogenomic window into morphology and behaviour, and a basis to rapidly and cheaply expand sampling in this economically and ecologically significant invertebrate clade.

description: This paper adds to the growing field of conversation analytical research on smartphone-use in face-to-face interactions. Whenever smartphones are used in mobile-supported sharing activities – e.g. to show a picture to co-present others – the smartphone user needs to search for and find the "searchable object" in the World Wide Web, an App or on the device's local memory. Analyzing audio-recordings of naturally-occurring conversations, this paper identifies two types of practices of speech that explicitly orient to ongoing smartphone-supported searches: Collaborative search (cf. Brown/McGregor/McMillan 2015) and search-accompanying commentary by the smartphone-user. Both practices verbally provide for the accountability of the otherwise opaque device use. They differ in the way they produce opportunities for co-present others to substantively contribute to the progression of the search as well as the degree to which they produce the search as an interactionally public event.

description: Current changes in vocational education and training, such as responding to the technological and organizational development (the advent of the 4th industrial revolution), internationalization, integration of VET in lifelong learning processes, create the need for better development of the teaching competence of VET teachers. There are different practices and experiences of VET teachers training in the EU countries, which creates the space for effective policy learning in this field. Comparability of the teaching competence of the VET teachers is important from the point of view of internationalization of initial VET and international mobility of VET students and teachers in implementing ECTS measures in teacher education. However, there is still a lack of modern practical instruments in monitoring, assessment, guidance and comparability of the teaching competence of VET teachers and trainers. The goal of this comparative study is to disclose the common and diverging trends in the development of teaching competences of VET teachers and trainers in Germany, Italy and Lithuania. Having in mind the complexity of this task and its relevance for the VET systems in many countries, as well as the variety of the policies, approaches and practices of development and assessment of teaching competence of VET teachers in the EU countries, this undertaking requires strong international partnership. This research report points out the findings of a comparative analysis in chosen EU countries (Germany, Lithuania, Italy), about the main similarities and differences regarding the training (and hence competence development) of VET teachers and trainers, and which regulatory frameworks, public bodies and other stakeholders take a leading role in this procedures in the above-indicated countries.

description: We study the collapse of two-dimensional polymers, via an O($n$) model on the square lattice that allows for dilution, bending rigidity and short-range monomer attractions. This model contains two candidates for the theta point, $Θ_{\rm BN}$ and $Θ_{\rm DS}$, both exactly solvable. The relative stability of these points, and the question of which one describes the `generic' theta point, have been the source of a long-standing debate. Moreover, the analytically predicted exponents of $Θ_{\rm BN}$ have never been convincingly observed in numerical simulations. In the present paper, we shed a new light on this confusing situation. We show in particular that the continuum limit of $Θ_{\rm BN}$ is an unusual conformal field theory, made in fact of a simple dense polymer decorated with {\sl non-compact degrees of freedom}. This implies in particular that the critical exponents take continuous rather than discrete values, and that corrections to scaling lead to an unusual integral form. Furthermore, discrete states may emerge from the continuum, but the latter are only normalizable---and hence observable---for appropriate values of the model's parameters. We check these findings numerically. We also probe the non-compact degrees of freedom in various ways, and establish that they are related to fluctuations of the density of monomers. Finally, we construct a field theoretic model of the vicinity of $Θ_{\rm BN}$ and examine the flow along the multicritical line between $Θ_{\rm BN}$ and $Θ_{\rm DS}$.

description: Arcobacter spp. are emerging enteropathogens and potential zoonotic agents that can be transmitted by food and water. The species A. butzleri and A. cryaerophilus have been associated with bacteremia, gastroenteritis and diarrhea in humans and with abortion and diarrhea in animals: the water plays an important role in the transmission. Aims of the present study were to evaluate the presence of Arcobacter spp. from different water sources, to assessed the possible correlation with the levels of fecal indicator bacteria and to determine the antimicrobial resistance of the isolates.

description: We study a recently proposed Einstein-Podolsky-Rosen steering inequality [arXiv- 1412.8178 (2014)]. Analogous to Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) inequality for Bell nonlocality, in the simplest scenario, i.e., 2 parties, 2 measurements per party and 2 outcomes per measurement, this newly proposed inequality has been proved to be necessary and sufficient for steering. In this article, using an equivalence between measurement incompatibility (non joint measurability) and steering, we find the optimal violation amount of this inequality in quantum theory. Interestingly, the optimal violation amount matches with optimal quantum violation of CHSH inequality, i.e., Cirel'son quantity. We further study the optimal violation of this inequality for different bipartite quantum states. To our surprise we find that optimal violation amount is different for different $2$-qubit pure entangled states, which is not the case for all other existing steering inequalities.

description: Gravitational theories with multiple scalar fields coupled to the metric and each other --- a natural extension of the well studied single-scalar-tensor theories --- are interesting phenomenological frameworks to describe deviations from general relativity in the strong-field regime. In these theories, the $N$-tuple of scalar fields takes values in a coordinate patch of an $N$-dimensional Riemannian target-space manifold whose properties are poorly constrained by weak-field observations. Here we introduce for simplicity a non-trivial model with two scalar fields and a maximally symmetric target-space manifold. Within this model we present a preliminary investigation of spontaneous scalarization for relativistic, perfect fluid stellar models in spherical symmetry. We find that the scalarization threshold is determined by the eigenvalues of a symmetric scalar-matter coupling matrix, and that the properties of strongly scalarized stellar configurations additionally depend on the target-space curvature radius. In preparation for numerical relativity simulations, we also write down the $3+1$ decomposition of the field equations for generic tensor-multi-scalar theories.

description: Comprising over 15 000 living species, decapods (crabs, shrimp and lobsters) are the most instantly recognizable crustaceans, representing a considerable global food source. Although decapod systematics have received much study, limitations of morphological and Sanger sequence data have yet to produce a consensus for higher-level relationships. Here, we introduce a new anchored hybrid enrichment kit for decapod phylogenetics designed from genomic and transcriptomic sequences that we used to capture new high-throughput sequence data from 94 species, including 58 of 179 extant decapod families, and 11 of 12 major lineages. The enrichment kit yields 410 loci (greater than 86 000 bp) conserved across all lineages of Decapoda, more clade-specific molecular data than any prior study. Phylogenomic analyses recover a robust decapod tree of life strongly supporting the monophyly of all infraorders, and monophyly of each of the reptant, ‘lobster’ and ‘crab’ groups, with some results supporting pleocyemate monophyly. We show that crown decapods diverged in the Late Ordovician and most crown lineages diverged in the Triassic–Jurassic, highlighting a cryptic Paleozoic history, and post-extinction diversification. New insights into decapod relationships provide a phylogenomic window into morphology and behaviour, and a basis to rapidly and cheaply expand sampling in this economically and ecologically significant invertebrate clade.

description: Functional evidence suggests that nitric oxide released from CA1 pyramidal cells can act as a retrograde messenger to mediate hippocampal long-term potentiation, but the failure to find neuronal nitric oxide synthase (NOS-I) in the dendritic spines of these cells has cast doubt on this suggestion. We hypothesized that NOS-I may be in spines but in a form inaccessible to antibody when using standard histological fixation procedures. Supporting this hypothesis, we found that after a weak fixation protocol shown previously to enhance staining of synaptic proteins, CA1 pyramidal cells exhibit clear immunoreactivity for NOS-I. Confocal microscopy revealed that numerous dendritic spines in the stratum radiatum contained the NR2 subunit of the NMDA receptor and the adaptor protein postsynaptic density-95, and a subset of these spines also contained NOS-I. Quantitative studies showed that only approximately 8% of synaptic puncta (identified by synaptophysin staining) were associated with NOS-I, and approximately 9% contained the beta subunit of soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC), a major target of NO. However, the majority of NOS-I-positive synaptic puncta was associated with sGC and vice versa. Postembedding immunogold electron microscopy showed that NOS-I concentrates just inside the postsynaptic plasma membrane of asymmetric axospinous synapses in the stratum radiatum of CA1, whereas sGCbeta concentrates just inside the presynaptic membrane. Together, these findings support the possibility that NO may act as a retrograde messenger to help mediate homosynaptic plasticity in a subpopulation of synapses in the stratum radiatum of CA1.

description: Rickettsia are tick-borne emerging pathogens recognized as important agents of human
 tick-borne diseases worldwide. Aim of this study was the identification and characterization
 of Spotted Fever Group (SFG) rickettsiae in ticks from ruminants in Lebanon.
 The study concerned 88 ticks collected in June 2014 from 30 Lebanese farms of ruminants
 and identified according morphological keys. Total DNA was extracted and used to identify
 and characterize Rickettsia spp. DNA through PCR and sequencing of fragments of 17 kDa
 protein, ompA, ompB, gltA, atpA, dnaK, dnaA, recA and 16S rRNA.
 Five different tick species were found: Hyalomma anatolicum (n=6), Rhipicephalus annulatus
 (n=56), Rhipicephalus bursa (n=1), Rhipicephalus sanguineus (n=6) and Rhipicephalus
 turanicus (n=19).
 A prevalence of 68.2% was found at the first screening performed amplyfing Rickettsia spp.
 16S rRNA. Among these Rickettsia positive samples, 17 were identified at the species level
 and 43 as SFG rickettsiae based on the multigene genotyping strategy. ‘Candidatus Rickettsia
 barbariae’, an emerging member of the rickettsial SFG, was identified in 9 samples. R.
 massiliae, R. aeschlimannii and R. africae were identified in four, three and one tick, respectively,
 confirming the presence of SFG Rickettsia spp. involved in human diseases.
 SFG rickettsiae with public health relevance were found in ticks collected in Lebanon, where
 the widespread distribution of tick vectors and possible livestock animal hosts in contact
 with humans may favor transmission to humans.

description: The behavior of a dc SQUID, based on a dirty point contacts between a single-band and three-band superconductor with broken time-reversal symmetry is investigated. Using earlier obtained results for Josephson effects in such systems new features in characteristics of a dc SQUID are revealed. It is shown that in the case of a BTRS (broken time-reversal symmetry) three-band superconductor for the applied external magnetic flux, which is divisible by the half-integer flux, strong degeneracy of ground states of a dc SQUID is taken place. This can lead to the appearance of possible multi-hysteresis loops on a dependence of a total flux in the dc SQUID from the externally applied flux. The number of these loops depends on the position of ground states of a three-band superconductor. Also it is found that dependencies of a critical current on applied magnetic flux can have complicated multi-periodic forms, which are differ from strictly periodic characteristics for conventional dc SQUIDs and Fraunhofer patterns for Josephson contacts in the external magnetic field.
