description: Cybocephalus iviei T. R. Smith  (Fig. 85–92)
 Cybocephalus iviei T. R. Smith in Smith and Cave 2007a: 169–170.
 Distribution. West Indies (Puerto Rico, U.S. Virgin Islands).
 Hosts. Pseudococcidae: Hypogeococcus pungens Granara de Willink.
 Remarks. A large series of C. iviei was collected, sifting litter underneath cacti and agave. Cybocephalids are often associated with scale insects feeding on cacti, and it can be inferred that this was why so many of these beetles were found thus. Another series of this beetle was collected in flight intercept traps on Buck Island, U.S. Virgin Islands. This species (published as C. kathrynae) has been documented feeding on the pollen of Mammillaria nivosa Link ex N. D. Pfeiffer and was captured in Puerto Rico feeding on H. pungens (Curbelo-Rodrígues et al. 2012). This is a wingless species, unlike Cybocephalus randalli; no winged phenotypes have been found. Originally this species was determined to be C. kathrynae by the author (Curbelo-Rodrígues et al. 2012). However, upon further examination and with more specimens on hand for dissection, the author has determined that the species recorded in Puerto Rico by Curbelo-Rodrígues et al. (2012) was C. iviei.

description: Introduction: Heavy alcohol consumption constitutes a major health risk among University students. Social relationships with peers strongly affect University students' perception of the drinking behavior of others, which in turn plays a crucial role in determining their own alcohol intake. University students tend to overestimate their peers' alcohol consumption – a belief that is associated with an increase in an individual's own consumption. Therefore, we implemented a social norms intervention with personalized normative feedback at a major University in Germany to reduce and prevent excessive drinking among University students. Methods: Our intervention was part of a regular health monitoring survey. We invited all enrolled University students to take part in this survey on two occasions. A total of 862 University students completed the questionnaire, 563 (65.3%) of which received e-mail-based feedback upon request concerning their peers' and their own alcohol consumption. For the intervention group (n = 190) as well as the control group (no feedback requested; n = 101), we included only University students in the evaluation who overestimated their peers' alcohol use and indicated above average consumption of the peers. We applied analyses of variance to assess intervention effects with regard to the correction of overestimated group norms as well as University students' drinking behavior. Results: Within the intervention group, we observed a significantly larger reduction of the previously overestimated behavioral norms compared to the control group (p < 0.001; η2p = 0.06). With regard to behavioral outcomes the intervention group showed a significantly larger reduction in the AUDIT-C score (p = 0.020; η2p = 0.03). Discussion: Our study confirms previous research whereupon personalized, gender-specific and selective normative feedback is effective for alcohol prevention among University students. However, University students still overestimated their peers' alcohol intake after the intervention. Furthermore, we did not reach high-risk groups (University students with the highest alcohol intake) since no feedback was requested. Future studies should address factors influencing the impact of the intervention and reachability of selective groups.

description: Trust is regarded as one of the main predictors for adopting automated buses (ABs). However, theories about trust (development) in technology generally vary and an in-depths study about trust in ABs specifically is still outstanding. The present study fills this gap by presenting results from focus group interviews to trust (development) in shared automated buses prior to exposure. The objectives of this study are to contrast participants’ naïve concepts of trust with theory and to identify underlying factors influencing a-priori trust in ABs. Results show that the N = 21 focus group participants use different strategies to familiarise themselves with the new technology of ABs, e.g., comparisons with familiar technologies, fundamental tendencies to approach or avoid, additional information seeking, or anthropomorphisation. These strategies largely support existing theories on trust (development) in technology. Differences between naïve interpretations of trust and its theoretical assumptions were found in focus group debates where more control over technology limited uncertainty and led to more trust. While theories suggest control and trust to be incompatible opposites, participants see control as a way to enhance trust. We provide starting points for further theory development and expansion and stress the importance of explanations in emerging technologies for trust and acceptance building.

description: We first recall a covariant formalism used to compute conserved charges in gauge invariant theories. We then study the case of gravity for two different boundary conditions, namely spatial infinity and a Brane-World boundary. The new conclusion of this analysis is that the gravitational energy (and linear and angular momentum) is a local expression if our universe is really a boundary of a five-dimensional spacetime.

description: We describe a new estimate of the radio galaxy 1.4 GHz luminosity function and its evolution at intermediate redshifts (z~0.4). Photometric redshifts and color selection have been used to select Bj<23.5 early-type galaxies from the Panoramic Deep Fields, a multicolor survey of two 25 sq deg fields. Approximately 230 radio galaxies have then been selected by matching early-type galaxies with NVSS radio sources brighter than 5 mJy. Estimates of the 1.4 GHz luminosity function of radio galaxies measure significant evolution over the observed redshift range. For an Omega_M=1 cosmology the evolution of the radio power is consistent with luminosity evolution where P(z)=P(0)(1+z)^{k_L} and 3

description: While mental health treatments have proven to be effective for a range of mental health problems, there is comparably little research on its effects on personality disorders or difficulty (PD). New dimensional conceptualizations of PD such as the ICD-11 PD model enable the cost- and time-effective dimensional assessment of severity and style of PD. Furthermore, they constitute a promising tool to investigate PD, not only as a treatment endpoint but also as a predictive or influencing factor for mental health treatments. In this study, we investigated the effects in two different mental health treatment settings [online (N = 38); face-to-face and blended [FTF/blended] (N = 35)] on the reduction of maladaptive personality traits as well as the interaction between maladaptive personality patterns and the response on primary endpoints (i.e., mental distress). Results indicate that both treatment settings have comparable within-group effects on the reduction of distress symptoms, while the treatment in the FTF/blended setting seems to have a stronger impact on the reduction of maladaptive traits. Further, reduction of maladaptive trait expressions was a reliable predictor of treatment response in the FTF/blended setting while explaining less variance in the online setting. Beyond the promising findings on the utility of maladaptive trait change as an outcome measure, we discuss possible applications as an information source for treatment decisions.

description: The global crisis of 2008 provoked a heightened interest among scientists to study the phenomenon, its propagation and negative consequences. The process of modelling the spread of a virus is commonly used in epidemiology. Conceptually, the spread of a disease among a population is similar to the contagion process in economy. This similarity allows considering the contagion in the world financial system using the same mathematical model of infection spread that is often used in epidemiology. Our research focuses on the dynamic behaviour of contagion spreading in the global financial network. The effect of infection by a systemic spread of risks in the network of national banking systems of countries is tested. An optimal control problem is then formulated to simulate a control that may avoid significant financial losses. The results show that the proposed approach describes well the reality of the world economy, and emphasizes the importance of international relations between countries on the financial stability.

description: An interaction of a double layer electron system realized in an AlGaAs-GaAs-AlGaAs heterostructure with nonuniform elastic modes localized in the GaAs layer is considered. The dependence of the coupling constant on the ratio between the thickness of the GaAs layer and the wavelength is calculated for the wave vector directed along the [110] axis, the displacement vector lying in the (1-10) plane and the interface boundaries parallel to the (001) plane. It is shown, that the coupling constant reaches the maximal value at the wavelength which is of order of the thickness of the GaAs layer. The renormalization of the velocity of the elastic modes is found for the case, when the electron system is in the fractional quantum Hall regime. It is shown, that for certain modes the dependence of the velocity shift on the wave vector is modified qualitatively under a transition of the electron system to the state, which corresponds to the Halperin wave function.

description: Type 1 diabetes is an autoimmune disease with rising incidence in high-income countries. Genetic and environmental predisposing factors contribute to the etiology of the disease, although their interaction is not sufficiently understood to allow for preventive action. Strongest known associations with genetic variation map to classical HLA class II genes. Because of its genetic complexity, the HLA region has been under-represented in genome-wide association studies, having potentially hindered the identification of relevant associations underlying the etiology of the disease. Here, we performed a comprehensive HLA-wide genetic association analysis of type 1 diabetes including multi-allelic and rare variants. We used high-density whole-exome sequencing data of the HLA region in the large UK Biobank dataset to apply gene-based association tests with a carefully defined type 1 diabetes phenotype (97 cases and 48,700 controls). Exon-based and single-variant association tests were used to complement the analysis. We replicated the known association of type 1 diabetes with the classical HLA-DQ gene. Tailoring the analysis toward rare variants, we additionally identified the lysine methyl transferase EHMT2 as associated. Deeper insight into genetic variation associated with disease as presented and discussed in detail here can help unraveling mechanistic details of the etiology of type 1 diabetes. More specifically, we hypothesize that genetic variation in EHMT2 could impact autoimmunity in type 1 diabetes development.
Can the gamma-ray source 3EG J2033+4118 be produced by the stellar system Cyg OB2 No.5?

description: We discuss the possibility that the stellar system Cyg OB2 No.5 can be a gamma-ray source in the light of recent EGRET and radio data. This system is formed by an O7 Ia + Ofpe/WN9 contact binary. A third star, probably a B0 V star also associated with the system, is located at $\sim 1700$ AU from the primary. We estimate the expected gamma-ray luminosity from the colliding winds region, the terminal shock of the wind, and the unstable zone at the base of the wind, and conclude that, under very reasonable assumptions, Cyg OB2 No.5 can generate about a half of the gamma-ray flux detected from the positionally coincident source 3EG J2033+4118. We suggest, then, that other O stars belonging to the association, also placed within the 95 % probability EGRET location contour, could contribute to the observed gamma-ray flux.

description: Interα-trypsin inhibitor heavy chain H4 (ITIH4) modulates inflammation and immunity, which take part in the pathogenesis of ankylosing spondylitis (AS). The current research intended to discover the clinical value of serum ITIH4 quantification for AS management. Serum ITIH4 among 80 AS patients before current treatment initiation (baseline) at weeks (W) 4, 8 and 12 after treatment was detected by ELISA. Serum ITIH4 from 20 disease controls (DCs) and 20 healthy controls (HCs) was detected. ITIH4 expression was lower in AS patients than in DCs (p = 0.002) and HCs (p < 0.001). Among AS patients, ITIH4 was negatively associated with C-reactive protein (CRP) (r = −0.311, p = 0.005), bath AS disease activity index (BASDAI) (r = −0.223, p = 0.047), total pack pain (r = −0.273, p = 0.014) and AS disease activity score (ASDAS) (CRP) (r = −0.265, p = 0.018). Meanwhile, ITIH4 was negatively related to tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α (r = −0.364, p = 0.001), interleukin (IL)-1β (r = −0.251, p = 0.025), IL-6 (r = −0.292, p = 0.009) and IL-17A (r = −0.254, p = 0.023). After treatment, the assessment of the spondylitis arthritis international society 40 response rate was 28.7% at W4, 46.3% at W8 and 55.0% at W12; ITIH4 showed an increasing trend from baseline to W12 (p < 0.001). Furthermore, ITIH4 at W8 (p = 0.020) and W12 (p = 0.035), but not at baseline or W4 (both p > 0.05), was enhanced in response patients vs. nonresponse patients. Additionally, ITIH4 at W12 was increased in AS patients receiving TNF inhibitors vs. those receiving nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) (p = 0.024). Serum ITIH4 increases after treatment, and its augmentation is correlated with lower disease activity, decreased inflammation and enhanced treatment response in AS patients.

description: Observations of the extraordinarily bright optical afterglow (OA) of GRB 991208 started 2.1 d after the event. The flux decay constant of the OA in the R-band is -2.30 +/- 0.07 up to 5 d, which is very likely due to the jet effect, and after that it is followed by a much steeper decay with constant -3.2 +/- 0.2, the fastest one ever seen in a GRB OA. A negative detection in several all-sky films taken simultaneously to the event implies either a previous additional break prior to 2 d after the occurrence of the GRB (as expected from the jet effect). The existence of a second break might indicate a steepening in the electron spectrum or the superposition of two events. Once the afterglow emission vanished, contribution of a bright underlying SN is found, but the light curve is not sufficiently well sampled to rule out a dust echo explanation. Our determination of z = 0.706 indicates that GRB 991208 is at 3.7 Gpc, implying an isotropic energy release of 1.15 x 10E53 erg which may be relaxed by beaming by a factor > 100. Precise astrometry indicates that the GRB coincides within 0.2" with the host galaxy, thus given support to a massive star origin. The absolute magnitude is M_B = -18.2, well below the knee of the galaxy luminosity function and we derive a star-forming rate of 11.5 +/- 7.1 Mo/yr. The quasi-simultaneous broad-band photometric spectral energy distribution of the afterglow is determined 3.5 day after the burst (Dec 12.0) implying a cooling frequency below the optical band, i.e. supporting a jet model with p = -2.30 as the index of the power-law electron distribution.

description: Membrane-bound proteins that change protonation during function use specific protein groups to bind and transfer protons. Knowledge of the identity of the proton-binding groups is of paramount importance to decipher the reaction mechanism of the protein, and protonation states of prominent are studied extensively using experimental and computational approaches. Analyses of model transporters and receptors from different organisms, and with widely different biological functions, indicate common structure-sequence motifs at internal proton-binding sites. Proton-binding dynamic hydrogen-bond networks that are exposed to the bulk might provide alternative proton-binding sites and proton-binding pathways. In this perspective article I discuss protonation coupling and proton binding at internal and external carboxylate sites of proteins that use proton transfer for function. An inter-helical carboxylate-hydroxyl hydrogen-bond motif is present at functionally important sites of membrane proteins from archaea to the brain. External carboxylate-containing H-bond clusters are observed at putative proton-binding sites of protonation-coupled model proteins, raising the question of similar functionality in spike protein S.

description: A single-cylinder full-metal engine with a real combustion chamber geometry was used to investigate particulate number emissions resulting from transient engine operation. The formation of particulate number emissions depends on mixture formation influenced by the in-cylinder flow and injection, and the formation of fuel films on the in-cylinder walls. For the investigation of this multi-parameter process, simultaneous endoscopic PIV and combustion visualization were applied. Hence, the measurement techniques allowed the investigation of in-cylinder flow, flame propagation, and soot formation. The test rig was modified to apply a generic load step and a realistic tip-in with Miller cycle. The reproducibility of the engine parameters during the transient allowed statistical analysis and the comparison between steady-state operating points. Cause-and-effect chains concerning the formation of soot are concluded by correlation analysis of parameters extracted from the flow field, the flame propagation and the soot luminosity.
The FIR-absorption of short period quantum wires and the transition from one to two dimensions

description: We investigate the FIR-absorption of short period parallel quantum wires in a perpendicular quantizing magnetic field. The external time-dependent electric field is linearly polarized along the wire modulation. The mutual Coulomb interaction of the electrons is treated self-consistently in the ground state and in the absorption calculation within the Hartree approximation. We consider the effects of a metal gate grating coupler, with the same or with a different period as the wire modulation, on the absorption. The evolution of the magnetoplasmon in the nonlocal region where it is split into several Bernstein modes is discussed in the transition from: narrow to broad wires, and isolated to overlapping wires. We show that in the case of narrow and not strongly modulated wires the absorption can be directly correlated with the underlying electronic bandstructure.

description: We study the dynamics of a magnetically trapped Bose-Einstein condensate in the presence of an external electromagnetic field coupling trapped, untrapped and antitrapped Zeeman sublevels. For large condensates an approximate analytical solution of the coupled Gross-Pitaevskii equations is given in the regime of strong outcoupling. The theory is developed for the cases of rf-outcoupling within a hyperfine manifold of states, micowave-outcoupling connecting states in two different hyperfine manifolds, and Raman outcoupling.

Testing the efficacy of river restoration across multiple levels of biological organisation
Creators: name: Huddart, Joseph Edward Anson
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2017

description: As we start to count the cost of unprecedented biodiversity loss in terms of impaired provisional, supporting and cultural ecosystem goods and services, so to are we increasingly implementing measures to halt and reverse these impacts. A major focus of these efforts has been the restoration river habitats, which rank among the most degraded globally. However, while river restoration has become a global enterprise, biomonitoring to test the ecological effectiveness of these activities remains exceptional and even then typically lacking the rigour necessary for detecting and tracking ecological responses across space and time. Here I use standardised and quantitative biomonitoring techniques to measure the ecological response to replicated, experimental, reach-scale large wood installations in heavily modified calcareous system. In Chapters 3-5, I used biannual biomonitoring to investigate the response of a target fish species and the wider fish assemblage to restoration and found strong, rapid responses in the target species’ predators (Chapter 3). In Chapter 4, I build food webs revealing changes to the food web structure that indicate enhanced energy transfer between predators and prey following restoration. In Chapter 5 I investigate the effect of restoration on ecosystem functioning, by comparing leaf-litter breakdown rates and colonisation in restored and unrestored reaches. In Chapter 6, I discuss how engaging river users as citizen scientists could advance the ecological success of their interventions and restoration science. The findings presented here highlight the importance of robust biomonitoring methods for revealing, measuring and characterising the response of ecological communities to habitat interventions. Repairing degraded ecosystems is among the most necessary and exciting challenges we have undertaken as a species, and only by advancing our understanding the factors that influence restoration success and failure will we be able to advance the practice of restoration towards an ever more efficient and ecologically effective management practice.

description: After stars formed in the early Universe, their ultraviolet light is expected, eventually, to have penetrated the primordial hydrogen gas and altered the excitation state of its 21-centimetre hyperfine line. This alteration would cause the gas to absorb photons from the cosmic microwave background, producing a spectral distortion that should be observable today at radio frequencies of less than 200 megahertz. Here we report the detection of a flattened absorption profile in the sky-averaged radio spectrum, which is centred at a frequency of 78 megahertz and has a best-fitting full-width at half-maximum of 19 megahertz and an amplitude of 0.5 kelvin. The profile is largely consistent with expectations for the 21-centimetre signal induced by early stars, however, the best-fitting amplitude of the profile is more than a factor of two greater than the largest predictions. This discrepancy suggests that either the primordial gas was much colder than expected or the background radiation temperature was hotter than expected. Astrophysical phenomena (such as radiation from stars and stellar remnants) are unlikely to account for this discrepancy, of the proposed extensions to the standard model of cosmology and particle physics, only cooling of the gas as a result of interactions between dark matter and baryons seems to explain the observed amplitude. The low-frequency edge of the observed profile indicates that stars existed and had produced a background of Lyman-alpha photons by 180 million years after the Big Bang. The high-frequency edge indicates that the gas was heated to above the radiation temperature less than 100 million years later.

Prospects for mammals in Borneo’s selectively-logged tropical forests: looking beyond species richness and abundance
Creators: name: Chapman, Philip Matthew
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: The majority of tropical forest mammal species survive selective logging, however we have only recently begun to reveal complex, variable community abundance changes. We have little detailed, long-term data, and a poor mechanistic understanding of why mammals persist or decline. Predicting resilience remains elusive. In this thesis, we aimed to fill some of these knowledge gaps by (1) Examining long-term persistence of small mammals, (2) testing whether previously-observed small mammal abundance increases coincide with reduced body condition and demographic rates, potentially reducing future resilience, (3) testing for behaviourally plastic responses in large herbivore activity patterns, and (4) investigating whether the small mammal community “spills over” edges between logged forest and oil palm plantations. We found strongly temporally variable small mammal population dynamics in logged forest, with some evidence for extinction debt. We found no direct evidence for bottom-up control seen in unlogged forest, although this probably reflects data limitations. There was no community-wide density-dependent reduction in body condition, reduced survival or reproductive output, suggesting that prospects for community resilience are good, but more detailed data is needed for declining species. Large herbivores showed pronounced shifts in daily activity patterns, with the largest and most hunted ungulates becoming significantly more nocturnal. However, shifts did not predict persistence, suggesting the adaptive importance of behavioural plasticity is complex and species-specific. Lastly, we found little evidence that small mammals from logged forest spill over into adjacent plantations despite the abundant food, with the edge apparently forming a formidable dispersal barrier. Together, our results suggest that prospects are good for many mammal species in logged forests, including those adjoining agriculture. However existing richness and abundance data miss many subtle temporal and individualistic responses, and to safeguard species known to be logging-intolerant, much more detailed work is required, combined with action to rehabilitate and restore logged forests for the future.

description: Phylogenetic trees canonically arise as embeddings of phylogenetic networks. We recently showed that the problem of deciding if two phylogenetic networks embed the same sets of phylogenetic trees is computationally hard, \blue{in particular, we showed it to be $Π^P_2$-complete}. In this paper, we establish a polynomial-time algorithm for this decision problem if the initial two networks consists of a normal network and a tree-child network. The running time of the algorithm is quadratic in the size of the leaf sets.

Regularization of the Density of States Fluctuation Contribution in Magnetic Field

description: The fit of the experimental data on c-axis magnetoresistance of HTS above the transition temperature with the theory based on the fluctuation renormalization of the one-electron density of states (DOS) is exellent in weak magnetic fields but meets the noticible difficulties in the region of strong fields. This is due to the formal divergency of the DOS contribution to conductivity and the dependence of the cut-off parameter on the magnetic field itself. We propose the scheme of the regularization of the problem. This permits us to obtain the expression for the magnetic field dependent part of DOS conductivity as a convergent serie independent on cut-off. We also calculate analitically the asymptotics for all regions of magnetic fields. The results demonstrate the robustness of the DOS contribution with respect to the magnetic field effect: in strong fields it decreases logarithmically only while Aslamazov-Larkin and anomalous Maki-Thompson contributions diminish as powers of H_{c2}/H.

 Distribution. USA (Florida).
 Hosts. Unknown.
 Remarks. Virtually every specimen collected in Florida has come from sifting sand and leaf litter at the base of grass clumps. A single specimen was found in Florida within a Solenopsis geminata (Fabricius) (Formicidae) nest as part of a tropical fire ant faunal study. This ant species is known to tend honeydew-producing insects (Tschinkel 2006), which may have brought them into contact with C. kathrynae feeding on said homopterans. This is a wingless species; unlike Cybocephalus randalli, no winged phenotypes have been found. Based on this physiological characteristic, pitfall trapping may be an effective collection technique in the proper habitat. Several large series of the wingless phenotypes of C. randalli have been collected in Baja California, Mexico using pitfall traps (Smith 2020).

Exploring methods of air pollution exposure and intake in active populations
Creators: name: Orjuela Mendoza, Juan Pablo
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: Ambient air pollution epidemiological studies are based on limited data on outdoor concentration at residential address neglecting people’s daily activities and how these influence the actual concentrations they are exposed to or how much of a pollutant is inhaled. The research presented here deals with such omission exploring methodologies that account for people’s activity patterns to model personal exposure concentrations and daily inhaled doses of air pollutants. Three models are presented: First, a model based on call detail records (CDRs) from 8 million callers in Italy is used to identify activity-based nitrogen dioxide (NO2) hotspots. A second model using geolocation, accelerometer data, and activity diaries from 180 people in Barcelona is presented and percentage contributions to NO2 and particulate matter (PM2.5) daily personal exposure and inhaled doses from different microenvironments are computed. Measured black carbon (BC) exposure data from 122 participants living in Antwerp, Barcelona and London is then used to generate the third and last model based on linear regressions. Population-activity-based exposures from the first model are lower than those based on home location. The method does identify areas of relative importance due to the time spent by people in them. The second model shows that despite people spending 10% of their day in transport, transport microenvironments contribute with 25% of participants daily exposures and with 45% of their daily inhaled doses. Measured BC exposures showed a similar trend with people spending 7.5% of their time in transport, which in turn contributed with 10.5% of daily BC exposures and 18.1% of daily inhaled doses. Linear regression models had an acceptable performance with adjusted R2 values for BC exposures of 0.4 and for BC inhaled doses of 0.35. The results offer new evidence on the importance of including activity patterns and ventilation rates in future epidemiological studies to avoid biases.
