description: Artificial one- and two-dimensional lattices have emerged as a powerful platform for the emulation of lattice Hamiltonians, the fundamental study of collective many-body effects, and phenomena arising from non-trivial topology. Exciton-polaritons, bosonic part-light and part-matter quasiparticles, combine pronounced nonlinearities with the possibility of on-chip implementation. In this context, organic semiconductors embedded in microcavities have proven to be versatile candidates to study nonlinear many-body physics and bosonic condensation, and in contrast to most inorganic systems, they allow the use at ambient conditions since they host ultra-stable Frenkel excitons. We implement a well-controlled, high-quality optical lattice that accommodates light-matter quasiparticles. The realized polariton graphene presents with excellent cavity quality factors, showing distinct signatures of Dirac cone and flatband dispersions as well as polariton lasing at room temperature. This is realized by filling coupled dielectric microcavities with the fluorescent protein mCherry. We demonstrate the emergence of a coherent polariton condensate at ambient conditions, taking advantage of coupling conditions as precise and controllable as in state-of-the-art inorganic semiconductor-based systems, without the limitations of e.g. lattice matching in epitaxial growth. This progress allows straightforward extension to more complex systems, such as the study of topological phenomena in two-dimensional lattices including topological lasers and non-Hermitian optics.

description: Odd-frequency triplet Cooper pairs are believed to be the carriers of long-range superconducting correlations in ferromagnets. Such triplet pairs are generated by inhomogeneous magnetism at the interface between a superconductor (S) and a ferromagnet (F). So far, reproducible long-range effects were reported only in complex layered structures designed to provide the magnetic inhomogeneity. Here we show that spin triplet pair formation can be found in simple unstructured Nb/Permalloy (Py = Ni_0.8Fe_0.2)/Nb trilayers and Nb/Py bilayers, but only when the thickness of the ferromagnetic layer ranges between 140 and 250 nm. The effect is related to the emergence of an intrinsically inhomogeneous magnetic state, which is a precursor of the well-known stripe regime in Py that in our samples sets in at thickness larger than 300 nm.

description: We derive axisymmetric equilibrium equations in the context of the hybrid Vlasov model with kinetic ions and massless fluid electrons, assuming isothermal electrons and deformed Maxwellian distribution functions for the kinetic ions. The equilibrium system comprises a Grad-Shafranov partial differential equation and an integral equation. These equations can be utilized to calculate the equilibrium magnetic field and ion distribution function, respectively, for given particle density or given ion and electron toroidal current density profiles. The resulting solutions describe states characterized by toroidal plasma rotation and toroidal electric current density. Additionally, due to the presence of fluid electrons, these equilibria also exhibit a poloidal current density component. This is in contrast to the fully kinetic Vlasov model, where axisymmetric Jeans equilibria can only accommodate toroidal currents and flows, given the absence of a third integral of the microscopic motion.

Our numerical results are comparable in size to the purely massless contributions which have been known for a few years. The results presented in this paper complete the order $α_s^4$ corrections to the hadronic Higgs boson decay.

description: Encoding of spectral information onto monochrome imaging cameras is of interest for wavelength multiplexing and hyperspectral imaging applications. Here, the complex spatio-spectral response of a disordered material is used to demonstrate retrieval of a number of discrete wavelengths over a wide spectral range. Strong, diffuse light scattering in a semiconductor nanowire mat is used to achieve a highly compact spectrometer of micrometer thickness, transforming different wavelengths into distinct speckle patterns with nanometer sensitivity. Spatial multiplexing is achieved through the use of a microlens array, allowing simultaneous imaging of many speckles, ultimately limited by the size of the diffuse spot area. The performance of different information retrieval algorithms is compared. A compressive sensing algorithm exhibits efficient reconstruction capability in noisy environments and with only a few measurements.

description: Let $(M, g)$ be a closed Riemannian manifold, where g is $C^1$-smooth metric. Consider the sequence of eigenfunctions $u_k$ of the Laplace operator on M. Let $B$ be a ball on $M$. We prove a sharp estimate of the number of nodal domains of $u_k$ that intersect $B$. The problem of local bounds for the volume and for the number of nodal domains was raised by Donnelly and Fefferman, who also proposed an idea how one can prove such bounds. We combine their idea with two ingredients: the recent sharp Remez type inequality for eigenfunctions and the Landis type growth lemma in narrow domains.

description: Throughout the Ottoman period, elite households and elite families were central figures in Middle Eastern urban politics; however, these entities were constructed in different ways according to time and period. Thanks to an exceptional source of documentation, the Ottoman census data of 1905, we are now able to reconstruct such households and families for the city of Gaza at the end of the Ottoman period in greater detail than ever before. This article examines the ways in which established elite families in late Ottoman Gaza [attempted to remain] endeavored to preserve their power and influence. It does not focus on the economic or political activities of these families or the narratives produced by them and about them, but mainly on their most private sphere; i.e., social relations within the household and between households belonging to one family. Particular attention is paid to the ways in which household members collaborated with each other to further their shared interests. Based on an analysis of the households of some of the most influential Gazan families, three types of collaboration within a whole family or a family branch are identified; examples of divergent developments between branches of one family are discussed as well.

description: We present a photometric and astrometric study of the split active asteroid P/2016 J1 (PANSTARRS). The two components (hereafter J1-A and J1-B) separated either $\sim$1500 days (2012 May to June) or 2300 days (2010 April) prior to the current epoch, with a separation speed $V_{\mathrm{sep}} = 0.70 \pm 0.02$ m s$^{-1}$ for the former scenario, or $0.83 \pm 0.06$ m s$^{-1}$ for the latter. Keck photometry reveals that the two fragments have similar, Sun-like colors which are comparable to the colors of primitive C- and G-type asteroids. With a nominal comet-like albedo, $p_{R} = 0.04$, the effective, dust-contaminated cross sections are estimated to be 2.4 km$^{2}$ for J1-A, and 0.5 km$^{2}$ for J1-B. We estimate that the nucleus radii lie in the range $140 \lesssim R_{\mathrm{N}} \lesssim 900$ m for J1-A and $40 \lesssim R_{\mathrm{N}} \lesssim 400$ m, for J1-B. A syndyne-synchrone simulation shows that both components have been active for 3 to 6 months, by ejecting dust grains at speeds $\sim$0.5 m s$^{-1}$ with rates $\sim$1 kg s$^{-1}$ for J1-A and 0.1 kg s$^{-1}$ for J1-B. In its present orbit, the rotational spin-up and devolatilization times of 2016 J1 are very small compared to the age of the solar system, raising the question of why this object still exists. We suggest that ice that was formerly buried within this asteroid became exposed at the surface, perhaps via a small impact, and that sublimation torques then rapidly drove it to break-up. Further disintegration events are anticipated due to the rotational instability.

description: Μέχρι το 2001, οι περισσότερες επιχειρήσεις χρησιμοποιούσαν το Waterfall μοντέλο για τη διαχείριση έργων και την ανάπτυξη λογισμικού. Αυτό το μοντέλο ακολουθεί μια γραμμική, αυστηρά διαδοχική διαδικασία, με κάθε στάδιο να ολοκληρώνεται πριν ξεκινήσει το επόμενο. Ωστόσο, οι ανάγκες της σύγχρονης αγοράς για ταχύτητα και προσαρμοστικότητα έκαναν αυτό το μοντέλο λιγότερο αποτελεσματικό. Το 2001, μια ομάδα ειδικών συνέταξε το Agile Μανιφέστο, το οποίο βασίζεται σε τέσσερις κεντρικές αξίες και δώδεκα αρχές που δίνουν έμφαση στη συνεργασία, την ευελιξία και την ταχεία παράδοση αξίας. Από τότε, πολλές εταιρείες υιοθετούν ευέλικτες μεθοδολογίες όπως το Scrum, το Kanban και την τεχνική Daily Stand up Meeting. Ωστόσο, η χρήση μόνο μεθοδολογιών δεν εγγυάται την επιτυχία. Η πραγματική αλλαγή προέρχεται από την υιοθέτηση της Agile Νοοτροπίας (Agile Mindset), η οποία εστιάζει σε στάσεις όπως η αναζήτηση λύσεων αντί της απόδοσης ευθυνών, η έμπνευση, αντί για την απλή πώληση, η υποστήριξη της ομάδας, η ανοιχτή επικοινωνία, η αυτογνωσία, η συνδημιουργία και η ανταλλαγή γνώσεων. Με σκοπό να προωθηθεί αυτή η νοοτροπία, δημιουργήθηκε ένα Μαζικό Ανοικτό Διαδικτυακό μάθημα (Mooc), το οποίο εστιάζει στην υιοθέτηση της Agile Νοοτροπίας και στην καλλιέργεια ενός ευέλικτου τρόπου εργασίας, βασισμένο στις αρχές του Professional Competencies for Business Agility V3 (Practitioner - Level 2). Το μάθημα σχεδιάστηκε και αναπτύχθηκε χρησιμοποιώντας την πλατφόρμα Open edX, προσφέροντας στους συμμετέχοντες τα κατάλληλα εργαλεία και τεχνικές για να κατανοήσουν και να ενσωματώσουν τις αρχές του Agile στον επαγγελματικό τους χώρο.
Information extraction from clinical trials

description: Evidence-based medicine (EBM) stipulates that decisions regarding the effectiveness of potential interventions should be based on objective evidence such as randomized clinical trials and systematic reviews. However, research output rate is accelerating faster than it is feasible to manually synthesize into summaries, clinical practice guidelines and other decision aids. The most likely solution lies in the computerized summarization of this research. In this thesis we perform an extensive systematic literature review regarding methods of extracting information targets from clinical trials. Based on this review, we select a method to be analysed and the experiment to be re-produced and critically appraised. Upon successful recreation of the experiment, we annotate a new corpus consented upon by two annotators. We run the experiment on the new corpus and compare the extraction results. Finally, we present two methods to possibly advance the difficult task of extracting key information elements from clinical trials.

description: We extend kinematic space to a simple scenario where the state is not fixed by conformal invariance: the vacuum of a conformal field theory with a boundary (bCFT). We identify the kinematic space associated with the boundary operator product expansion (bOPE) as a subspace of the full kinematic space. In addition, we establish representations of the corresponding bOPE blocks in a dual gravitational description. We show how the new kinematic dictionary and the dynamical data in bOPE allows one to reconstruct the bulk geometry. This is evidence that kinematic space may be a useful construction for understanding bulk physics beyond just kinematics.

description: The galaxy total mass inside the effective radius encode important information on the dark matter and galaxy evolution model. Total "central" masses can be inferred via galaxy dynamics or with gravitational lensing, but these methods have limitations. We propose a novel approach, based on Random Forest, to make predictions on the total and dark matter content of galaxies using simple observables from imaging and spectroscopic surveys. We use catalogs of multi-band photometry, sizes, stellar mass, kinematic "measurements" (features) and dark matter (targets) of simulated galaxies, from Illustris-TNG100 hydrodynamical simulation, to train a Mass Estimate machine Learning Algorithm (Mela). We separate the simulated sample in passive early-type galaxies (ETGs), both "normal" and "dwarf", and active late-type galaxies (LTGs) and show that the mass estimator can accurately predict the galaxy dark masses inside the effective radius in all samples. We finally test the mass estimator against the central mass estimates of a series of low redshift (z$\leq$0.1) datasets, including SPIDER, MaNGA/DynPop and SAMI dwarf galaxies, derived with standard dynamical methods based on Jeans equations. Dynamical masses are reproduced within 0.30 dex ($\sim2σ$), with a limited fraction of outliers and almost no bias. This is independent of the sophistication of the kinematical data collected (fiber vs. 3D spectroscopy) and the dynamical analysis adopted (radial vs. axisymmetric Jeans equations, virial theorem). This makes Mela a powerful alternative to predict the mass of galaxies of massive stage-IV surveys' datasets.

description: In this study we present our preliminary report on the scintillation properties of new Ce-doped Tl2LaBr5 single crystal. Two zones vertical Bridgman technique is used for the growth of this compound. Pure and Ce-doped samples showed maximum emission peaks at 435 nm and 415 nm, respectively. Best light yield of 43,000+-4300 ph/MeV with 6.3% (FWHM) energy resolution is obtained for 5% Ce-doped sample under γ-ray excitation. Single exponential decay time constant of 25 ns is observed for 5% Ce doped sample. Effective Z-number is found to be 67, therefore efficient detection of X- and γ-ray will be possible. Preliminary results revealed that this compound will be an ideal candidate for the medical imaging techniques. Further investigations are under way for the determination of optimized conditions of this compound.

description: Because emotion regulation (ER) processes operate over time, they potentially change the context in which subsequent ER processes occur. To test this proposal, fifty-two healthy participants completed the ER choice task. Thirty standardized low- and high-intensity negative images were used to generate different emotional contexts in which participants selected between distraction or reappraisal strategies to decrease the intensity of their negative emotion. Participants then implemented their selected strategy and rated their negative emotion. Using a dynamic perspective, we examined as predictors of ER strategy choice, in addition to current stimulus intensity, several contextual factors from the immediately preceding trial: preceding stimulus intensity and strategy choice, and the intensity of negative affect following the previous strategy implementation and thus preceding the current trial. Results replicated earlier findings that participants are more likely to choose distraction for high-intensity images. Extending earlier findings, selecting reappraisal in the preceding trial and greater negative affect preceding the current trial were associated with lower odds of choosing distraction. The lack of significant interactions among the current and preceding trial factors suggests that these effects on ER choice were direct and not through moderating the effect of current stimulus intensity. These findings support dynamic theories of ER.

description: This work presents a maturity model for assessing catalogues of semantic artefacts, one of the keystones that permit semantic interoperability of systems. We defined the dimensions and related features to include in the maturity model by analysing the current literature and existing catalogues of semantic artefacts provided by experts. In addition, we assessed 26 different catalogues to demonstrate the effectiveness of the maturity model, which includes 12 different dimensions (Metadata, Openness, Quality, Availability, Statistics, PID, Governance, Community, Sustainability, Technology, Transparency, and Assessment) and 43 related features (or sub-criteria) associated with these dimensions. Such a maturity model is one of the first attempts to provide recommendations for governance and processes for preserving and maintaining semantic artefacts and helps assess/address interoperability challenges.

description: We first consider {\it deterministic} immersions of the $d$-dimensional sphere into high dimensional Euclidean spaces, where the immersion is via spherical harmonics of level $n$. The main result of the article is the, a priori unexpected, fact that there is a uniform lower bound to the critical radius of the immersions as $n\to\infty$. This fact has immediate implications for {\it random} spherical harmonics with fixed $L^2$-norm. In particular, it leads to an exact and explicit formulae for the tail probability of their (large deviation) suprema by the tube formula, and also relates this to the expected Euler characteristic of their upper level sets.

While considerable research exists regarding post-traumatic epilepsy in moderate to severe traumatic brain injury, convulsions following SRC are relatively understudied. There is no clear consensus on the prevalence of convulsions, seizures, or the management of these entities following SRC. The aim of this review was to assess the state of the literature, describe the management trends of concussive convulsions and post-traumatic epilepsy in the SRC population, and provide evidence and guidance for the management of these athletes. Methods: The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses (PRISMA) guidelines were adapted for a review of heterogeneous literature. English-language titles and abstracts published prior to June 2017 were searched systematically across four electronic databases. Primary peer-reviewed journal articles were included if they reported individuals of any age or gender who suffered a concussion or mild traumatic brain injury that was associated with seizure activity during a sports/recreational event. Results: Of 852 records screened for review, 58 full-text articles were assessed for eligibility. Eight studies with 130 athletes total met the inclusion criteria. Of these individuals suffering a SRC convulsion or a post-concussive seizure, 0.8% received antiepileptic medications, 24.6% underwent electroencephalography, and 30.8% underwent brain imaging. The mean time until the participant returned to play was 14.8 days. Only 6.9% developed long-term sequelae over a mean follow-up time of 3.3 years. Conclusions: The current literature describing concussive convulsions and post-concussion seizure in sports is limited. A void of primary literature concerning the management of patients with concussive convulsions or seizures and the long-term sequelae among this population remains. However, the evidence available suggests that concussive convulsions do not need to be a primary modifying factor in the management of SRC.

description: The innovation of next-generation sequencing (NGS) techniques has significantly reduced the price of genome sequencing, lowering barriers to future medical research; it is now feasible to apply genome sequencing to studies where it would have previously been cost-inefficient. Identifying damaging or pathogenic mutations in vast amounts of complex, high-dimensional genome sequencing data may be of particular interest to researchers. Thus, this paper's aims were to train machine learning models on the attributes of a genetic mutation to predict LoFtool scores (which measure a gene's intolerance to loss-of-function mutations). These attributes included, but were not limited to, the position of a mutation on a chromosome, changes in amino acids, and changes in codons caused by the mutation. Models were built using the univariate feature selection technique f-regression combined with K-nearest neighbors (KNN), Support Vector Machine (SVM), Random Sample Consensus (RANSAC), Decision Trees, Random Forest, and Extreme Gradient Boosting (XGBoost). These models were evaluated using five-fold cross-validated averages of r-squared, mean squared error, root mean squared error, mean absolute error, and explained variance. The findings of this study include the training of multiple models with testing set r-squared values of 0.97.

description: Background: Serratia marcescens may cause severe nosocomial infections, mostly in very low birth weight infants. Since S. marcescens exhibits by far the highest adjusted incidence rate for horizontal transmission, it can cause complex outbreak situations in neonatal intensive care units. Objective: The aim of this study was to establish a fast and highly sensitive colonization screening for prompt cohorting and barrier nursing strategies. Methods: A probe-based duplex PCR assay targeting the 16S rRNA gene of S. marcescens was developed and validated by using 36 reference strains, 14 S. marcescens outbreak- and nonoutbreak isolates, defined by epidemiological linkage and molecular typing, and applied in 1,347 clinical specimens from 505 patients. Results and Conclusions: The novel PCR assay proved to be highly specific and had an in vitro sensitivity of 100 gene copies per reaction (similar to 15 bacteria). It showed a similar (in laryngeal/tracheal specimens) or even higher (in rectal/stoma swabs) in vivo sensitivity in comparison to routine microbial culture and was much quicker (<24 h vs. 2 days). By combining different oligonucleotide primers, there was robust detection of genetic variants of S. marcescens strains. PCR inhibition was low (1.6%) and observed with rectal swabs only. Cohort analysis illustrated applicability of the PCR assay as a quick tool to prevent outbreak scenarios by allowing rapid decisions on cohorting and barrier nursing. In summary, this novel molecular screening for colonization by S. marcescens is specific, highly sensitive, and substantially accelerates detection.

description: We review the treatment of conservation laws in spacetimes that are glued together in various ways, thus adding a boundary term to the usual conservation laws. Several examples of such spacetimes will be described, including the joining of Schwarzschild spacetimes of different masses, and the possibility of joining regions of different signatures. The opportunity will also be taken to explore some of the less obvious properties of Lorentzian vector calculus.

description: Social media use is omnipresent among college students. The current study investigated how exposure to student risk-taking forms of alcohol use on social media shapes the perceptions of the prototypical student and drinking norms among students. A 2020, pre-registered three time-point experiment was conducted that measured 208 (M age = 18.85, SD =1.94; 160 female) participant’s partying/drinking prototypes along with their perceived normative support of alcohol consumption. At Time 2, participants were randomly assigned to one of four conditions, three video conditions and one non-video condition, with one video condition displaying risk-taking drinking behavior. A Mixed ANOVA revealed that within the risk-taking drinking condition, participants used more pro-alcohol words to describe the typical ingroup member and perceived an increase in normative support of alcohol consumption. Implications of this study suggest that risk-taking content from social media may pose barriers to developing social norms interventions to address problematic college student drinking.

description: As quantum computing hardware systems continue to advance, the research and development of performant, scalable, and extensible software architectures, languages, models, and compilers is equally as important in order to bring this novel coprocessing capability to a diverse group of domain computational scientists. For the field of quantum chemistry, applications and frameworks exists for modeling and simulation tasks that scale on heterogeneous classical architectures, and we envision the need for similar frameworks on heterogeneous quantum-classical platforms. Here we present the XACC system-level quantum computing framework as a platform for prototyping, developing, and deploying quantum-classical software that specifically targets chemistry applications. We review the fundamental design features in XACC, with special attention to its extensibility and modularity for key quantum programming workflow interfaces, and provide an overview of the interfaces most relevant to simulations of chemistry. A series of examples demonstrating some of the state-of-the-art chemistry algorithms currently implemented in XACC are presented, while also illustrating the various APIs that would enable the community to extend, modify, and devise new algorithms and applications in the realm of chemistry.

description: Basal insulin remains the mainstay of treatment of type 2 diabetes when diet changes and exercise in combination with oral drugs and other injectable agents are not sufficient to control hyperglycemia. Insulin therapy should be individualized, and several factors influence the choice of basal insulin; these include pharmacological properties, patient preferences, and lifestyle, as well as health insurance plan formularies. The recent availability of basal insulin formulations with longer durations of action has provided further dosing flexibility; however, patients may need to switch agents throughout therapy for a variety of personal, clinical, or economic reasons. Although a unit-to-unit switching approach is usually recommended, this conversion strategy may not be appropriate for all patients and types of insulin. Glycemic control and risk of hypoglycemia must be closely monitored by health care providers during the switching process. In addition, individual changes in care and formulary coverage need to be adequately addressed in order to enable a smooth transition with optimal outcomes.

description: Due to their volatile nature, when sulfur and zinc are observed in external galaxies, their determined abundances represent the gas-phase abundances in the interstellar medium. This implies that they can be used as tracers of the chemical enrichment of matter in the Universe at high redshift. Comparable observations in stars are more difficult and, until recently, plagued by small number statistics. We wish to exploit the Gaia ESO Survey (GES) data to study the behaviour of sulfur and zinc abundances of a large number of Galactic stars, in a homogeneous way. By using the UVES spectra of the GES sample, we are able to assemble a sample of 1301 Galactic stars, including stars in open and globular clusters in which both sulfur and zinc were measured. We confirm the results from the literature that sulfur behaves as an alpha-element. We find a large scatter in [Zn/Fe] ratios among giant stars around solar metallicity. The lower ratios are observed in giant stars at Galactocentric distances less than 7.5 kpc. No such effect is observed among dwarf stars, since they do not extend to that radius. Given the sample selection, giants and dwarfs are observed at different Galactic locations, and it is plausible, and compatible with simple calculations, that Zn-poor giants trace a younger population more polluted by SN Ia yields. It is necessary to extend observations in order to observe both giants and dwarfs at the same Galactic location. Further theoretical work on the evolution of zinc is also necessary.

description: Interference enhanced wide-field nanoparticle imaging is a highly sensitive technique that has found numerous applications in labeled and label-free sub-diffraction-limited pathogen detection. It also provides unique opportunities for nanoparticle classification upon detection. More specif- ically, the nanoparticle defocus images result in a particle-specific response that can be of great utility for nanoparticle classification, particularly based on type and size. In this work, we com- bine a model based supervised learning algorithm with a wide-field common-path interferometric microscopy method to achieve accurate nanoparticle classification. We verify our classification schemes experimentally by using gold and polystyrene nanospheres.
