description: Abstract: The development of a new hard x-ray beamline I-TOMCAT equipped with a 1 m long short-period bulk high-temperature superconductor undulator (BHTSU) has been scheduled for the upgrade of the Swiss Light Source at the Paul Scherrer Institute. The very hard x-ray source generated by the BHTSU will increase the brilliance at the beamline by over one order of magnitude in comparison to other state-of-the-art undulator technologies and allow experiments to be carried out with photon energies in excess of 60 keV. One of the key challenges for designing a 1 m long (100 periods) BHTSU is the large-scale simulation of the magnetization currents inside 200 staggered-array bulk superconductors. A feasible approach to simplify the electromagnetic model is to retain five periods from both ends of the 1 m long BHTSU, reducing the number of degrees of freedom to the scale of millions. In this paper, the theory of the recently-proposed 2D A -V formulation-based backward computation method is extended to calculate the critical state magnetization currents in the ten-period staggered-array BHTSU in 3D. The simulation results of the magnetization currents and the associated undulator field along the electron beam axis are compared with the well-known 3D H -formulation and the highly efficient 3D H -ϕ formulation method, all methods showing excellent agreement with each other as well as with experimental results. The mixed H -ϕ formulation avoids computing the eddy currents in the air subdomain and is significantly faster than the full H -formulation method, but is slower in comparison to the A -V formulation-based backward computation. Finally, the fastest and the most efficient A -V formulation, implemented in ANSYS 2020R1 Academic, is adopted to optimize the integrals of the undulator field along the electron beam axis by optimizing the sizes of the end bulks.

description: One of the most prominent properties in real-world networks is the presence of a community structure, i.e. dense and loosely interconnected groups of nodes called communities. In an attempt to better understand this concept, we study the relationship between the strength of the community structure and the network transitivity (or clustering coefficient). Although intuitively appealing, this analysis was not performed before. We adopt an approach based on random models to empirically study how one property varies depending on the other. It turns out the transitivity increases with the community structure strength, and is also affected by the distribution of the community sizes. Furthermore, increasing the transitivity also results in a stronger community structure. More surprisingly, if a very weak community structure causes almost zero transitivity, the opposite is not true and a network with a close to zero transitivity can still have a clearly defined community structure. Further analytical work is necessary to characterize the exact nature of the identified relationship.

description: The sex chromosome pairs of many species do not undergo genetic recombination, unlike the autosomes. It has been proposed that the suppressed recombination results from natural selection favouring close linkage between sex-determining genes and mutations on this chromosome with advantages in one sex, but disadvantages in the other (these are called sexually antagonistic mutations). No example of such selection leading to suppressed recombination has been described, but populations of the guppy display sexually antagonistic mutations (affecting male coloration), and would be expected to evolve suppressed recombination. In extant close relatives of the guppy, the Y chromosomes have suppressed recombination, and have lost all the genes present on the X (this is called genetic degeneration). However, the guppy Y occasionally recombines with its X, despite carrying sexually antagonistic mutations. We describe evidence that a new Y evolved recently in the guppy, from an X chromosome like that in these relatives, replacing the old, degenerated Y, and explaining why the guppy pair still recombine. The male coloration factors probably arose after the new Y evolved, and have already evolved expression that is confined to males, a different way to avoid the conflict between the sexes.

Free Primary Education Policy Implementation Challenges in the Perspectives of Teachers: A Case Study in Pyin Oo Lwin District of Myanmar
Creators: name: Khaing, Thet

Year: 2023

description: The purpose of this study was to examine the challenges faced by teachers in implementing the Free Primary Education Policy in Pyin Oo Lwin District, Myanmar. This paper identified key factors that influenced the implementation of policies and proposed strategies for achieving these objectives.
Literature reviews had been conducted using electronic databases and government documents, focusing on English-language articles published between 2010 and 2023. According to a PRISMA flowchart documenting the selection process, the study followed strict inclusion and exclusion criteria. In order to collect data, a standardized form was used, and quality assessment tools were employed according to the design of the study.
The results of the study indicated that policy implementation was confronted with a number of challenges, including limited resources, deteriorating infrastructure, inadequate training, and a lack of support systems. Further, cultural and contextual factors played a significant role in determining policy effectiveness. The study proposed strategies to address these challenges, including the allocation of resources, the development of infrastructure, the training of teachers, and the enhancement of support systems. There were valuable lessons to be learned from other regions when it came to adapting policy measures.
One of the key findings of the study was the critical lack of qualified teachers, particularly in remote regions, as well as the need for enhanced teacher training and professional development. Due to the increased student-teacher ratio resulting from the policy, teachers were required to manage their classrooms effectively. There were several factors that influenced teacher motivation and morale, including low salaries and limited opportunities for career advancement. In order to achieve policy success, it was also essential that teachers and parents worked together effectively.
A number of strategies were implemented to achieve policy goals, including strengthening teacher training, improving access to educational resources, increasing parental and community involvement, addressing infrastructure needs, aligning curriculums, and establishing robust evaluation and monitoring systems.
The findings of this study emphasized the importance of context-specific approaches in the implementation of educational policies. In order to contribute to the success of Myanmar's Free Primary Education Policy, the proposed strategies had been tailored to the needs of Pyin Oo Lwin District in order to improve education quality and accessibility.

description: We present pore fluid geochemistry, including major ion and trace metal concentrations and the isotopic composition of pore fluid calcium and sulfate, from the uppermost meter of sediments from the Gulf of Aqaba (Northeast Red Sea) and the Iberian Margin (North Atlantic Ocean). In both the locations, we observe strong correlations among calcium, magnesium, strontium, and sulfate concentrations as well as the sulfur isotopic composition of sulfate and alkalinity, suggestive of active changes in the redox state and pH that should lead to carbonate mineral precipitation and dissolution. The calcium isotope composition of pore fluid calcium (δ44Ca) is, however, relatively invariant in our measured profiles, suggesting that carbonate mineral precipitation is not occurring within the boundary layer at these sites. We explore several reasons why the pore fluid δ44Ca might not be changing in the studied profiles, despite changes in other major ions and their isotopic composition, including mixing between the surface and deep precipitation of carbonate minerals below the boundary layer, the possibility that active iron and manganese cycling inhibits carbonate mineral precipitation, and that mineral precipitation may be slow enough to preclude calcium isotope fractionation during carbonate mineral precipitation. Our results suggest that active carbonate dissolution and precipitation, particularly in the diffusive boundary layer, may elicit a more complex response in the pore fluid δ44Ca than previously thought.

description: We present a quantum Monte Carlo study of two-dimensional dipolar Bose gases in the limit of zero temperature. The analysis is mainly focused on the anisotropy effects induced in the homogeneous gas when the polarization angle with respect to the plane is changed. We restrict our study to the regime where the dipolar interaction is strictly repulsive, although the strength of the pair repulsion depends on the vector interparticle distance. Our results show that the effect of the anisotropy in the energy per particle scales with the gas parameter at low densities as expected, and that this scaling is preserved for all polarization angles even at the largest densities considered here. We also evaluate the excitation spectrum of the dipolar Bose gas in the context of the Feynman approximation and compare the results obtained with the Bogoliubov ones. As expected, we find that these two approximations agree at very low densities, while they start to deviate from each other as the density increases. For the largest densities studied, we observe a significant influence of the anisotropy of the dipole-dipole interaction in the excitation spectrum.

description: Background: Inborn errors of immunity (IEI) present with a large phenotypic spectrum of disease, which can pose diagnostic and therapeutic challenges. Suppressor of cytokine signaling 1 (SOCS1) is a key negative regulator of cytokine signaling, and has recently been associated with a novel IEI. Of patients described to date, it is apparent that SOCS1 haploinsufficiency has a pleiotropic effect in humans. Objective: We sought to investigate whether dysregulation of immune pathways, in addition to STAT1, play a role in the broad clinical manifestations of SOCS1 haploinsufficiency. Methods: We assessed impacts of reduced SOCS1 expression across multiple immune cell pathways utilizing patient cells and CRISPR/Cas9 edited primary human T cells. Results: SOCS1 haploinsufficiency phenotypes straddled across the International Union of Immunological Societies classifications of IEI. We found that reduced SOCS1 expression led to dysregulation of multiple intracellular pathways in immune cells. STAT1 phosphorylation is enhanced, comparably with STAT1 gain-of-function mutations, and STAT3 phosphorylation is similarly reduced with concurrent reduction of Th17 cells. Furthermore, reduced SOCS1 E3 ligase function was associated with increased FAK1 in immune cells, and increased AKT and p70 ribosomal protein S6 kinase phosphorylation. We also found Toll-like receptor responses are increased in SOCS1 haploinsufficiency patients. Conclusions: SOCS1 haploinsufficiency is a pleiotropic monogenic IEI. Dysregulation of multiple immune cell pathways may explain the variable clinical phenotype associated with this new condition. Knowledge of these additional dysregulated immune pathways is important when considering the optimum management for SOCS1 haploinsufficient patients.

description: Abstract: Measurements of protein–ligand interactions have reproducibility limits due to experimental errors. Any model based on such assays will consequentially have such unavoidable errors influencing their performance which should ideally be factored into modelling and output predictions, such as the actual standard deviation of experimental measurements (σ) or the associated comparability of activity values between the aggregated heterogenous activity units (i.e., Ki versus IC50 values) during dataset assimilation. However, experimental errors are usually a neglected aspect of model generation. In order to improve upon the current state-of-the-art, we herein present a novel approach toward predicting protein–ligand interactions using a Probabilistic Random Forest (PRF) classifier. The PRF algorithm was applied toward in silico protein target prediction across ~ 550 tasks from ChEMBL and PubChem. Predictions were evaluated by taking into account various scenarios of experimental standard deviations in both training and test sets and performance was assessed using fivefold stratified shuffled splits for validation. The largest benefit in incorporating the experimental deviation in PRF was observed for data points close to the binary threshold boundary, when such information was not considered in any way in the original RF algorithm. For example, in cases when σ ranged between 0.4–0.6 log units and when ideal probability estimates between 0.4–0.6, the PRF outperformed RF with a median absolute error margin of ~ 17%. In comparison, the baseline RF outperformed PRF for cases with high confidence to belong to the active class (far from the binary decision threshold), although the RF models gave errors smaller than the experimental uncertainty, which could indicate that they were overtrained and/or over-confident. Finally, the PRF models trained with putative inactives decreased the performance compared to PRF models without putative inactives and this could be because putative inactives were not assigned an experimental pXC50 value, and therefore they were considered inactives with a low uncertainty (which in practice might not be true). In conclusion, PRF can be useful for target prediction models in particular for data where class boundaries overlap with the measurement uncertainty, and where a substantial part of the training data is located close to the classification threshold.

In the course of the work, it was revealed that the leading predictors determining the severity of the course of bronchopulmonary dysplasia in children are the gestational age of the child, body weight at birth, the course of the perinatal period, concomitant somatic pathology of the mother, as well as the duration of the respiratory support. The clinical course of the disease, the nature of the microbiota of respiratory and morphological changes on CT lungs, as well as the outcomes of bronchopulmonary dysplasia are associated with the severity of the disease. Key words: children, bronchopulmonary dysplasia, prematurity, outcomes.

description: Are the sciences not advancing at an ever increasing speed? We contrast this popular perspective with the view that science funding may actually see diminishing returns, at least regarding established fields. In order to stimulate a larger discussion, we investigate two exemplary cases, the linear increase in human life expectancy over the last 170 years and the advances in the reliability of numerical short and medium term weather predictions during the last 50 years. We argue that the outcome of science and technology (S&T) funding in terms of measurable results is a highly sub-linear function of the amount of resources committed. Supporting a range of small to medium size research projects, instead of a few large ones, will be, as a corollary, a more efficient use of resources for science funding agencies.

Hunger Games: The Effects of Alternate Day Fasting on Food Intake, Body Weight, and Leptin and Ghrelin in Rats
Creators: name: Tacad, Debra Kirsty Mortel
Publisher: name: University of Nevada, Las Vegas
Year: 2016

description: PURPOSE: To determine whether a compensatory increase in food intake occurs following a day of fasting, and to determine whether leptin and/or ghrelin levels change in response to ADF compared with ad libitum feeding.
INTRODUCTION: Recently, alternate-day fasting (ADF) has grown in popularity as an alternative to continuous energy restriction (CER) diets as a method for improving health and controlling food intake. Leptin and ghrelin are two hormones implicated in the regulation of food intake and body weight, however their response to ADF is unclear.
METHODS: Male Wistar rats of the same age and weight were randomly assigned to the ADF group (n=7) or a control group (n=7). The ADF group had alternating 24-hour fasting and feeding days for 30 days. Fasting rats were limited to 3-5g of regular chow on fasting days and were given food ad libitum on feeding days. The control group had food ad libitum everyday for the same 30 days. Food intake for each animal was measured on a digital scale and recorded daily, and body weight was measured weekly. 600 ?l blood was taken from the tail of each rat at the end of day 1, day 2, day 29, and day 30, to measure hormone levels after a fasting and feeding day before and after the ADF intervention trial. Leptin and ghrelin levels were determined by radioimmunoassay.
RESULTS: Food intake by ADF rats was increased by 20% on ad libitum feeding days (F =3.484, p = .047), however ADF rats had lower rates of weight gain compared to the control group (290 g vs 355 g; F = 41.604, p < .001). Total percent body fat was significantly higher in the ADF group compared with the control group (19.9% vs 15.6%; t = -2.848, p = .015). Diet had no significant effect on leptin and ghrelin levels.
CONCLUSION: Results of this study indicate that food intake on feeding days did not
sufficiently increase to offset the calorie deficit incurred on fasting days. Despite a decrease in weight gain, percent body fat increased in the ADF group. This may be the result of an adaptive change in the use of energy from growth/production to body maintenance and repair.

description: We demonstrate the feasibility to generate surrogates by Fourier-based methods for an incomplete data set. This is performed for the case of a CMB analysis, where astrophysical foreground emission, mainly present in the Galactic plane, is a major challenge. The shuffling of the Fourier phases for generating surrogates is now enabled by transforming the spherical harmonics into a new set of basis functions that are orthonormal on the cut sky. The results show that non-Gaussianities and hemispherical asymmetries in the CMB as identified in several former investigations, can still be detected even when the complete Galactic plane (|b| < 30°) is removed. We conclude that the Galactic plane cannot be the dominant source for these anomalies. The results point towards a violation of statistical isotropy.

description: The durability of an organic colour and its resistance against external chemical agents and exposure to light can be significantly enhanced by hybridizing the natural dye with a mineral. In search for stable natural pigments, the present work focuses on the association of indigo blue with several zeolitic matrices (LTA zeolite, mordenite, MFI zeolite). The manufacturing of the hybrid pigment is tested under varying oxidising conditions, using Raman and UV-visible spectrometric techniques. Blending indigo with MFI is shown to yield the most stable composite in all of our artificial indigo pigments. In absence of defects and substituted cations such as aluminum in the framework of the MFI zeolite matrix, we show that matching the pore size with the dimensions of the guest indigo molecule is the key factor. The evidence for the high colour stability of indigo@MFI opens a new path for modeling the stability of indigo in various alumino-silicate substrates such as in the historical Maya Blue pigment.
Maximal displacement in a branching random walk through interfaces

description: In this article, we study a branching random walk in an environment which depends on the time. This time-inhomogeneous environment consists of a sequence of macroscopic time intervals, in each of which the law of reproduction remains constant. We prove that the asymptotic behaviour of the maximal displacement in this process consists of a first ballistic order, given by the solution of an optimization problem under constraints, a negative logarithmic correction, plus stochastically bounded fluctuations.

description: Recent discovery of Skyrmion crystal phase in insulating multiferroic compound Cu$_2$OSeO$_3$ calls for new ways and ideas to manipulate the Skyrmions in the absence of spin transfer torque from the conduction electrons. It is shown here that the position-dependent electric field, pointed along the direction of the average induced dipole moment of the Skyrmion, can induce the Hall motion of Skyrmion with its velocity orthogonal to the field gradient. Finite Gilbert damping produces longitudinal motion. We find a rich variety of resonance modes excited by a.c. electric field.

description: The Fatou-Julia iteration theory of rational functions has been extended to quasiregular mappings in higher dimension by various authors. The purpose of this paper is an analogous extension of the iteration theory of transcendental entire functions. Here the Julia set is defined as the set of all points such that complement of the forward orbit of any neighbourhood has capacity zero. It is shown that for maps which are not of polynomial type the Julia set is non-empty and has many properties of the classical Julia set of transcendental entire functions.

description: Corruption has been an issue in municipal government since the inception of government. The purpose of this research and paper is to explore the topic of urban corruption in the United States a sit pertains to city development. A review of the literature on this topic shows that this has been a neglected area of research in public administration. The literature review contained in this paper will look at both the research that has been done in the area of urban corruption and the way in which this type of research has been conducted over the years.
Asymptotics and scalings for large product-form networks via the Central Limit Theorem

description: The asymptotic behaviour of a closed BCMP network, with $n$ queues and $m_n$ clients, is analyzed when $n$ and $m_n$ become simultaneously large. Our method relies on Berry-Esseen type approximations coming in the Central Limit Theorem. We construct critical sequences $m^0_n$, which are necessary and sufficient to distinguish between saturated and non-saturated regimes for the network. Several applications of these results are presented. It is shown that some queues can act as bottlenecks, limiting thus the global efficiency of the system.
Influence of Fluctuating Membranes on Self-Assembly of Patchy Colloids

description: A coarse-grained computational model is used to investigate the effect of a fluid membrane on patchy-particle assembly into biologically-relevant structures motivated by viral cores and clathrin. For cores, we demonstrate a non-monotonic dependence of the promotion of assembly on membrane stiffness. If the membrane is significantly deformable, cores are enveloped in buds, although this effect is suppressed for very flexible membranes. In the less deformable regime, we observe no marked enhancement for cores, even for strong adhesion to the surface. For clarthrin-like particles, we again observe the formation of buds, whose morphology depends on membrane-flexibility.

description: We prove the existence of an open and dense set D\subset? Homeo0(T2) (set of toral homeomorphisms homotopic to the identity) such that the rotation set of any element in D is a rational polygon. We also extend this result to the set of axiom A dif- feomorphisms in Homeo0(T2). Further we observe the existence of minimal sets whose rotation set is a non-trivial segment, for an open set in Homeo0(T2).

description: It is important to develop statistical techniques to analyze high-dimensional data in the presence of both complex dependence and possible heavy tails and outliers in real-world applications such as imaging data analyses. We propose a new robust high-dimensional regression with coefficient thresholding, in which an efficient nonconvex estimation procedure is proposed through a thresholding function and the robust Huber loss. The proposed regularization method accounts for complex dependence structures in predictors and is robust against heavy tails and outliers in outcomes. Theoretically, we rigorously analyze the landscape of the population and empirical risk functions for the proposed method. The fine landscape enables us to establish both statistical consistency and computational convergence under the high-dimensional setting. We also present an extension to incorporate spatial information into the proposed method. Finite-sample properties of the proposed methods are examined by extensive simulation studies. An application concerns a scalar-on-image regression analysis for an association of psychiatric disorder measured by the general factor of psychopathology with features extracted from the task functional MRI data in the Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development (ABCD) study.
