description: A search for new massive particles decaying into a pair of Higgs bosons in proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV is presented. Data were collected with the CMS detector at the LHC, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 35.9 fb$^{-1}$. The search is performed for resonances with a mass between 0.8 and 3.5 TeV using events in which one Higgs boson decays into a bottom quark pair and the other decays into two W bosons that subsequently decay into a lepton, a neutrino, and a quark pair. The Higgs boson decays are reconstructed with techniques that identify final state quarks as substructure within boosted jets. The data are consistent with standard model expectations. Exclusion limits are placed on the product of the cross section and branching fraction for generic spin-0 and spin-2 massive resonances. The results are interpreted in the context of radion and bulk graviton production in models with a warped extra spatial dimension. These are the best results to date from searches for an HH resonance decaying to this final state, and they are comparable to the results from searches in other channels for resonances with masses below 1.5 TeV.

description: Flat iteration is a variation on the original binary version of the Kleene star operation P*Q, obtained by restricting the first argument to be a sum of atomic actions. It generalizes prefix iteration, in which the first argument is a single action. Complete finite equational axiomatizations are given for five notions of bisimulation congruence over basic CCS with flat iteration, viz. strong congruence, branching congruence, eta-congruence, delay congruence and weak congruence. Such axiomatizations were already known for prefix iteration and are known not to exist for general iteration. The use of flat iteration has two main advantages over prefix iteration: 1.The current axiomatizations generalize to full CCS, whereas the prefix iteration approach does not allow an elimination theorem for an asynchronous parallel composition operator. 2.The greater expressiveness of flat iteration allows for much shorter completeness proofs. In the setting of prefix iteration, the most convenient way to obtain the completeness theorems for eta-, delay, and weak congruence was by reduction to the completeness theorem for branching congruence. In the case of weak congruence this turned out to be much simpler than the only direct proof found. In the setting of flat iteration on the other hand, the completeness theorems for delay and weak (but not eta-) congruence can equally well be obtained by reduction to the one for strong congruence, without using branching congruence as an intermediate step. Moreover, the completeness results for prefix iteration can be retrieved from those for flat iteration, thus obtaining a second indirect approach for proving completeness for delay and weak congruence in the setting of prefix iteration.

description: Conventional approaches to probing ultrafast molecular dynamics rely on the use of synchronized laser pulses with a well-defined time delay. Typically, a pump pulse excites a wavepacket in the molecule. A subsequent probe pulse can then dissociates or ionizes the molecule, and measurement of the molecular fragments provides information about where the wavepacket was for each time delay. In this work, we propose to exploit the ultrafast nuclear-position-dependent emission obtained due to large light-matter coupling in plasmonic nanocavities to image wavepacket dynamics using only a single pump pulse. We show that the time-resolved emission from the cavity provides information about when the wavepacket passes a given region in nuclear configuration space. This approach can image both cavity-modified dynamics on polaritonic (hybrid light-matter) potentials in the strong light-matter coupling regime as well as bare-molecule dynamics in the intermediate coupling regime of large Purcell enhancements, and provides a new route towards ultrafast molecular spectroscopy with plasmonic nanocavities.

description: The anomalous Low Energy Excess (LEE) of electron neutrinos and antineutrinos in MiniBooNE has inspired both theories and entire experiments to probe the heart of its mystery. One such experiment is MicroBooNE. This dissertation presents an important facet of its LEE investigation: how a powerful systematic can be levied on this signal through parallel study of a highly correlated channel in muon neutrinos. This constraint serves to strengthen MicroBooNE's ability to confirm or validate the cause of the LEE and will lay the groundwork for future oscillation experiments in Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber (LArTPC) detector experiments like SBN and DUNE. In addition, this muon channel can be used to test oscillations directly, demonstrated through the world's first muon neutrino disappearance search with LArTPC data.

description: Ray stability is investigated in environments consisting of a range-independent background sound-speed profile on which a range-dependent perturbation, such as that produced by internal waves in deep ocean environments, is superimposed. Numerical results show that ray stability is strongly influenced by the background sound speed profile. Ray instability is shown to increase with increasing magnitude of alpha := I omega^{prime} / omega, where 2 pi / omega(I) is the range of a ray double loop and I is the ray action variable. The mechanism, shear-induced instability enhancement, by which alpha controls ray instability is described.

description: Beginning with the adoption of the Internet as a marketing tool, demand for online booking in the tourism and hospitality industry has dramatically increased over recent decades. As a key component of online marketing, most organisations in the tourism and hospitality industry, such as hotels, travel agencies, airline companies, and national tourism organisations have developed their own websites to provide information and/or attract customers or tourists. Attributes of hotel websites determine the images and attitudes customers have of the hotel industry and ultimately affect purchase intentions. Despite the importance of electronic service quality (e-SQ) for hotel website effectiveness, some issues remain unresolved within the hotel sector, such as the use of inconsistent or incomplete measurement scales, as well as factors that may affect different perceptions about e-SQ including the culture, experience or demographic characteristics of customers. This thesis fills this gap in the research literature by developing and testing a model of the impact of e-SQ on customers’ willingness to purchase in the hotel website context. The research questions focus on developing measurement scales by identifying important factors of e-SQ, exploring e-SQ perceptions in a cross-country setting (Australia and Korea), as well as examining possible moderating effects of variables such as self-confidence, booking experience, and age, on the relationship between e-service quality and willingness to purchase.

description: We investigate the combined effect of rectification and nonlinear dynamics on the behavior of several simple nonlinear circuits. We consider the classic Resistor-Inductor-Diode (RLD) circuit driven by a low frequency source when an operational amplifier with negative feedback is added to the circuit. Radio frequency signals are applied to the circuit, causing significant changes in the onset of period-doubling and chaos. Measurements indicate that this effect is associated with a DC voltage induced by rectification of the RF signal in the circuit. The combination of rectification and nonlinear circuit dynamics produce qualitatively new behavior, which opens up a new channel of RF interference in circuits.

 Distribution. African species widely distributed in Madagascar and east Africa. First record from Socotra Island.
 Note. WRANIK (2003) lists the Near East/Arabian species S. decens Zaitzev, 1909 for the Socotran fauna, but this record seems to be based on the misidentification. The taxonomy of the genus Sternolophus Solier, 1834 is still not properly resolved and no modern revision exists for the Old World species of the genus. The Socotran specimens clearly differ from S. decens by the diagnostic characters given in the identification key by ZAITZEV (1909): they are generally wider than the Arabian specimens of S. decens and bear a longer and stouter metaventral spine. They agree well with the specimens of S. unicolor from Madagascar present in the collection of NMPC. Few Sternolophus specimens with a wider general body form from southern Yemen are present in the collection of NMPC, but they clearly differ from the Socotran specimens by a shortened and apically blunt metaventral spine and may be conspecific with the Yemeni specimens which BALFOUR- BROWNE (1951) identified as possibly belonging to S. solieri Laporte de Castelnau, 1840.

description: The detection of gravitational waves together with their electromagnetic counterpart, in the gamma-ray burst GRB 170817A, marked a new era of multi-messenger astronomy. Several theoretical models have been proposed to explain the atypical behavior of this event. Recently, it was shown that the multi-wavelength afterglow of GRB 170817A was consistent with a synchrotron forward-shock model when the outflow was viewed off-axis, decelerated in a uniform medium and parametrized through a power-law velocity distribution. Motivated by the upper limits on the very-high-energy emission, and the stratified medium in the close vicinity of a binary neutron star merger proposed to explain the gamma-ray flux in the short GRB 150101B, we extend the mechanism proposed to explain GRB 170817A to a more general scenario deriving the synchrotron self-Compton (SSC) and synchrotron forward-shock model when the off-axis outflow is decelerated in a uniform and stratified circumburst density. As particular cases, we show that the delayed and long-lasting afterglow emission observed in GRB 080503, GRB140903A, GRB 150101B, and GRB 160821B could be interpreted by a similar scenario to the one used to describe GRB 170817A. In addition, we show that the proposed scenario agrees with the MAGIC, Fermi-LAT and H.E.S.S upper limits on gamma-ray emission from GRB 160821B and GRB 170817A.

description: The representation theory of the generalized deformed oscillator algebras (GDOA's) is developed. GDOA's are generated by the four operators ${1,a,a^†,N}$. Their commutators and Hermiticity properties are those of the boson oscillator algebra, except for $[a, a^†]_q = G(N)$, where $[a,b]_q = a b - q b a$ and $G(N)$ is a Hermitian, analytic function. The unitary irreductible representations are obtained by means of a Casimir operator $C$ and the semi-positive operator $a^† a$. They may belong to one out of four classes: bounded from below (BFB), bounded from above (BFA), finite-dimentional (FD), unbounded (UB). Some examples of these different types of unirreps are given.

description: We report a measurement of the dimensionless enhancement factor $κ_0$ for the Rb-$^{129}$Xe pair commonly used in spin exchange optical pumping (SEOP) to produce hyperpolarized $^{129}$Xe. $κ_0$ characterizes the amplification of the $^{129}$Xe magnetization contribution to the Rb electronic effective field, compared to the case of a uniform continuous medium in classical magnetostatics. The measurement is carried out in Rb vapor cells containing both $^3$He and $^{129}$Xe and relies on the previously measured value of $κ_0$ for the Rb-$^3$He pair. The measurement is based on (1) the optically detected (Faraday rotation) frequency shift of the $^{87}$Rb EPR hyperfine spectrum caused by the SEOP nuclear polarization and subsequent sudden destruction of nuclear polarization of both species and (2) a comparison of NMR signals for the two species acquired just prior to the EPR frequency shift measurements. We find $(κ_0)_{\rm RbXe} = 518\pm 8$, in good agreement with previous measurements and theoretical estimates but with improved precision.

This paper describes three intelligent user interfaces: handwriting recognition, adaptive menus, and predictive fillin. In the context of adding a personUs name and address to an electronic organizer, tests show handwriting recognition is slower than typing on an on-screen, soft keyboard, while adaptive menus and predictive fillin can be twice as fast. This paper also presents strategies for applying these three interfaces to other information collection domains.

description: This paper presents a novel spline-based meshing technique that allows for usage of boundary-conforming meshes for unsteady flow and temperature simulations in co-rotating twin-screw extruders. Spline-based descriptions of arbitrary screw geometries are generated using Elliptic Grid Generation. They are evaluated in a number of discrete points to yield a coarse classical mesh. The use of a special control mapping allows to fine-tune properties of the coarse mesh like orthogonality at the boundaries. The coarse mesh is used as a 'scaffolding' to generate a boundary-conforming mesh out of a fine background mesh at run-time. Storing only a coarse mesh makes the method cheap in terms of memory storage. Additionally, the adaptation at run-time is extremely cheap compared to computing the flow solution. Furthermore, this method circumvents the need for expensive re-meshing and projections of solutions making it efficient and accurate. It is incorporated into a space-time finite element framework. We present time-dependent test cases of non-Newtonian fluids in 2D and 3D for complex screw designs. They demonstrate the potential of the method also for arbitrarily complex industrial applications.

description: The emerging field of nanomedicine provides new approaches for the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, for symptom relief and for monitoring of disease progression. One route of realizing this approach is through carefully constructed nanoparticles. Due to the small size inherent to the nanoparticles a proper characterization is not trivial. This review highlights the application of time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy and fluorescence lifetime imaging microscopy (FLIM) for the analysis of nanoparticles, covering aspects ranging from molecular properties to particle detection in tissue samples. The latter technique is particularly important as FLIM allows for distinguishing of target molecules from the autofluorescent background and, due to the environmental sensitivity of the fluorescence lifetime, also offers insights into the local environment of the nanoparticle or its interactions with other biomolecules. Thus, these techniques offer highly suitable tools in the fields of particle development, such as organic chemistry, and in the fields of particle application, such as in experimental dermatology or pharmaceutical research.

description: Aims: To test the hypothesis that the fibril morphology and the fibril protein primary structure are conserved across different patients suffering from the common variant of systemic Amyloid A (AA) amyloidosis. Methods: Amyloid fibrils were extracted from the renal tissue of four patients. The fibril morphology was analysed in negatively stained samples with transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The fibril protein identity and fragment length were determined by using mass spectrometry. Results: The fibrils show a consistent morphology in all four patients and exhibit an average width of ∼9.6 nm and an average pitch of ∼112 nm. All fibrils are composed of polypeptide chains that can be assigned to human serum amyloid A (SAA) 1.1 protein. All fragments lack the N-terminal arginine residue and are C-terminally truncated. Differences exist concerning the exact C-terminal cleavage site. The most prominent cleavage site occurs at residues 64–67. Conclusions: Our data demonstrate that AA amyloid fibrils are consistent at the level of the protein primary structure and fibril morphology in the four analysed patients.

description: Intimal hyperplasia (IH) is a significant factor limiting the success of revascularization surgery for blood flow restoration. IH results from a foreign body response and mechanical disparity that involves complex biochemical reactions resulting in graft failure. The available treatment option utilizes either different pharmacological interventions or mechanical support to the vascular grafts with limited success. This review explains the pathophysiology of IH, responsible mechanical and biological factors, and treatment options, emphasizing perivascular devices. They are designed to provide mechanical support and pharmacology actions. The perivascular drug delivery concept has successfully demonstrated efficacy in various animal studies. Accurate projections of drug release mechanisms using mathematical modeling could be used to formulate prolonged drug elution devices. Numerical modeling aspects for the prediction of design outcomes have been given due importance that fulfills the unmet clinical need for better patient care. IH could be effectively prevented by simultaneous mechanical scaffolding and sustained local drug delivery. Future perivascular medical devices could be designed to integrate these essential features. Numerical modeling for device performance prediction should be utilized in the development of next-generation perivascular devices.

description: Do complexity classes have many-one complete sets if and only if they have Turing-complete sets? We prove that there is a relativized world in which a relatively natural complexity class-namely a downward closure of NP, \rsnnp - has Turing-complete sets but has no many-one complete sets. In fact, we show that in the same relativized world this class has 2-truth-table complete sets but lacks 1-truth-table complete sets. As part of the groundwork for our result, we prove that \rsnnp has many equivalent forms having to do with ordered and parallel access to $\np$ and $\npinterconp$.

description: NMR spectroscopy of proteins with paramagnetic metal ions, first performed with metalloproteins, is a unique technique to obtain long-range distance information for three-dimensional structure determinations. This thesis focuses on developing applications of paramagnetic NMR spectroscopy, particularly pseudocontact shifts, in drug discovery. The two-component dengue virus NS2B-NS3 protease (NS2B-NS3pro) from serotype 2 is a well-established drug target, but drug development has been hampered for many years by lack of structural information. In earlier work, pseudocontact shifts (PCSs) induced by lanthanide binding tags at multiple sites had successfully been used to determine the closed conformation of NS2B in the presence of a small inhibitor molecule. Subsequently, PCSs were used to prove that an unlinked construct of NS2B-NS3pro exists predominately in the closed conformation in solution, showing that the open conformation observed previously is an artefact generated by a covalent link between NS2B and NS3 (Paper 1). Next, PCSs generated for NS2B, NS3pro and bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (BPTI) were used to show that the C-terminal segment of NS2B remains in the closed conformation in the presence of BPTI, correcting a crystallographic artefact (Paper 2). The work described in Papers 1 and 2 confirmed that the closed conformation of dengue virus NS2B-NS3pro is the best model for structure-guided drug design. As the sensitivity of NMR spectra of dynamic proteins, such as the dengue virus protease, is compromised by excessive line broadening, alternative NMR tags were sought. O-tert-butyltyrosine incorporated in proteins proved to be an outstanding NMR probe for conformational studies of high-molecular-weight systems and measurement of submicromolar ligand binding affinities in one-dimensional 1H-NMR spectra without any isotope labelling (Paper 3). A tert-butyl probe was also introduced into a tightly binding lead compound against the dengue virus protease. Measurement of ligand PCSs from intense intramolecular NOESY cross-peaks with the tert-butyl group allowed positioning of the ligand on the protein with respect to the paramagnetic centre, while strong intermolecular NOEs validated the structural model of the complex established with the use of PCSs (Paper 4). In summary, the paramagnetic NMR approach, demonstrated on the dengue virus NS2B-NS3 protease, presents a broadly applicable and elegant way for structure-guided drug design at atomic resolution.

 Notes. This species differs from E. socotranus sp. nov. by entirely reddish colour and temples only slightly convergent posteriorly, slightly round, three antebasal foveae present but central one equal to or even smaller than lateral ones. However, as diagnostic characters in Euconnus are mainly based on male genitalia, I refrain from describing this new species until the discovery of a male.

description: Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder, characterised histopathologically by the degenerating nigrostriatal pathway. Previous studies have shown a decrease in neurogenesis, dopaminergic neurons and neurotrophic factor levels in the Parkinson brain. This thesis investigates the capability of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and platelet derived growth factor (PDGF) to stimulate endogenous neurogenesis and offer direct or indirect neuroprotection in a novel model of Parkinson's disease. To assess the neurogenic capability of the postnatal substantia nigra, the effect of age and nigrostriatal circuitry function was examined. Animals were randomised into 2 cohorts; one cohort the control while the other received a partial unilateral 6-hydroxydopamine (6-OHDA; 4 [mcg]) lesion. All animals received 10 day exposure to 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU; 25 mg/kg body weight) after lesion to label proliferative cells. An increase in age decreased neurogenic potential of the substantia nigra and dentate gyrus of rats. A partial lesion increased cell proliferation; with the change showing an interaction between age and treatment. The current data shows the highest neurogenic potential at day 28 after weaning, with a near complete lack of neurogenesis at 2 years. With increasing age, a decrease in neurotrophic factors has been reported. The current data supports the hypothesis for neurotrophic factors influencing endogenous neurogenesis. A novel Parkinson's disease rat model that mimics human pathophysiology using a low dose rotenone induced intra-medial forebrain bundle lesion was developed. Rotenone is a highaffinity inhibitor of complex 1 of the mitochondrial electron transport chain. Complex 1 inhibition by rotenone causes the production of reactive oxygen species that result in oxidative damage of the dopaminergic neurons. The animal model demonstrated a glial response together with a slow degenerative change (cell stress; oxidative stress; [alpha]-synuclein production; cell death) similar to human Parkinson's disease. This is a useful model for testing therapeutic interventions, including neuroprotective and neurogenic agents for Parkinson's disease.

description: Zellweger syndrome (ZS) is a congenital peroxisome biogenesis disorder which has both features of neurodegeneration and defective neurodevelopment. ZS patients exhibit significant changes to brain morphology, prominent cell migration defects, and neurodegeneration; defects leading to severe motor and cognitive dysfunction. ZS is caused by mutation in PEX genes which encode proteins necessary for peroxisomes biogenesis. Loss of peroxisome biogenesis results in the deficiency of various peroxisomal metabolic functions, such as [beta]-oxidation of very-long-chain-fatty acids, and biosynthesis of essential compounds that include bile acids, plasmalogens and docosahexaenoic acid. Despite these important findings, the molecular basis of ZS neuropathology is still unknown. For this study, which comprised a focus on the mechanisms/pathways involved in ZS neuropathology, mice with brain restricted deletion of the PEX13 gene were used as an animal model of ZS neuropathogenesis. PEX13 is required for the import of newly synthesized proteins into the peroxisome matrix. PEX13 brain mutant mice display characteristics typical of a milder ZS phenotype, including extended survival rate, and are therefore an appropriate model to stud neurodevelopmental changes at both early and postnatal developmental stages.

description: We perform a search for gravitational waves (GWs) from several supermassive binary black hole (SMBBH) candidates (NGC 5548, Mrk 231, OJ 287, PG 1302-102, NGC 4151, Ark 120 and 3C 66B) in long-term timing observations of the pulsar PSR J1909$-$3744 obtained using the Parkes radio telescope. No statistically significant signals were found. We constrain the chirp masses of those SMBBH candidates and find the chirp mass of NGC 5548 and 3C 66B to be less than $2.4 \times 10^9\,\rm M_{\odot}$ and $2.5 \times 10^9\,\rm M_{\odot}$ (with 95% confidence), respectively. Our upper limits remain a factor of 3 to 370 above the likely chirp masses for these candidates as estimated from other approaches. The observations processed here provide upper limits on the GW strain amplitude that improve upon the results from the first Parkes Pulsar Timing Array data release by a factor of 2 to 7. We investigate how information about the orbital parameters can help improve the search sensitivity for individual SMBBH systems. Finally, we show that these limits are insensitive to uncertainties in the Solar System ephemeris model.

description: We study the Landau gauge gluon propagators in dense two-color QCD at quark chemical potential, $μ_q$, in the range from 0.5 to 1.0 GeV not reachable by the perturbative method at weak coupling. In order to take into account the non-perturbative effects, at tree level we use a massive Yang-Mills model for the Yang-Mills theory (or the Curci-Ferrari model) which has successfully described the lattice results of the gluon and ghost propagators in the Landau gauge. We couple quarks to this theory and compute the one-loop polarization effects in medium. The presence of the gluon mass significantly tempers the medium effects and uncertainties associated with the strong coupling constant $α_s$. The diquark condensate in two-color QCD is color-singlet, for which neither electric nor magnetic screening masses should appear at the scale less than the diquark gap. The presence of the gap helps to explain the lattice results which are not very sensitive to the quark density. Meanwhile we also found the limitation of the one-loop estimate as well as the lack of some physics in perturbative medium corrections.
