description: Heavy quark and charmonium production as well as their space-time evolution are studied in transport simulations of heavy-ion collisions at RHIC and LHC. In the partonic transport model Boltzmann Approach of MultiParton Scatterings (BAMPS) heavy quarks can be produced in initial hard parton scatterings or during the evolution of the quark-gluon plasma. Subsequently, they interact with the medium via binary scatterings with a running coupling and a more precise Debye screening which is derived from hard thermal loop calculations, participate in the flow and lose energy. We present results of the elliptic flow and nuclear modification factor of heavy quarks and compare them to available data. Furthermore, preliminary results on J/psi suppression at forward and mid-rapidity are reported for central and non-central collisions at RHIC. For this, we study cold nuclear matter effects and the dissociation as well as regeneration of J/psi in the quark-gluon plasma.

description: Background: Augmentation of collateral flow is proposed as a method to reduce ischemic injury in the posterior circulation. However, collateral formation in basilar artery stenosis (BAS) and basilar artery occlusion (BAO) has not been studied thoroughly. Methods: We identified 24 consecutive patients admitted over a 4-year period with angiographically demonstrated BAS of more than 50% or occlusion. Angiographic images were reviewed for pattern of collaterals by a blinded reviewer. A new grading system by Qureshi [1] (Qureshi AI (2012) J Neuroimaging in press) was utilized for grading. Grades I and II had retrograde filling of the basilar artery through PCA with or without filling of the superior cerebellar artery, respectively. Grades III and IV were bilateral or unilateral anastomoses of cerebellar arteries or PCAs, respectively. Risk factors such as age, gender, race/ethnicities, co-morbidities, NIHSS sore on admission and discharge, tPA administration, in-hospital complications, and discharge status measured by the modified Rankin score were ascertained. Results—The collaterals were categorized as: Grade I A (n = 8), Grade IIIA (n = 5), and none (n = 11). No patient had Grade II collaterals. Grade IA collaterals were more frequent in patients with BAO than those with BAS. The rate of good outcomes (mRS 0–2) at discharge was significantly higher among patients with IA collaterals compared with patients with grade IIIA collaterals (62% vs. 20%). The rate of good outcomes was 54% of patients without collaterals

description: Preeclampsia is a leading cause of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Currently, there is no cure for preeclampsia except delivery of the placenta, which is central to preeclampsia pathogenesis. Transcriptional profiling of human placenta from pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia and control has been extensively performed to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs). DEGs are identified using unbiased assays, however the decisions to investigate DEGs experimentally are biased by many factors (e.g., investigator interests, available reagents, knowledge of gene function) causing many DEGs to remain uninvestigated. To address this shortcoming, we utilized existing linked open biomedical resources and publicly available high-throughput transcriptional profiling data to identify and annotate the function of currently uninvestigated preeclampsia-associated DEGs. Using the keyword “preeclampsia”, we identified and reviewed 68 publicly available human gene expression experiments deposited in the Gene Expression Omnibus. Meta-analysis of the 13 experiments meeting our inclusion criteria generated a list of 273 DEGs. We annotated these genes using a knowledge graph constructed with Semantic Web Technologies that contained several Open Biomedical Ontologies and publicly available datasets. The relative complement of the annotation-derived and meta-analysis derived genes were identified as the uninvestigated preeclampsia-associated genes. Experimentally investigated DEGs were then identified from published literature based on semantic and syntactic annotations to PubMed abstracts by PubTator and PubAnnotation. Finally, novel biological relationships between experimentally investigated and uninvestigated preeclampsia-associated genes were identified by learning neuro-symbolic logic embeddings to predict missing edges in the knowledge graph.

description: In his Inventiones paper, Ziller (Invent. Math: 1-22, 1977) computed the integral homology as a graded abelian group of the free loop space of compact, globally symmetric spaces of rank 1. Chas and Sullivan (String Topology, 1999)showed that the homology of the free loop space of a compact closed orientable manifold can be equipped with a loop product and a BV-operator making it a Batalin-Vilkovisky algebra. Cohen, Jones and Yan (The loop homology algebra of spheres and projective spaces, 2004) developed a spectral sequence which converges to the loop homology as a spectral sequence of algebras. They computed the algebra structure of the loop homology of spheres and complex projective spaces by using Ziller's results and the method of Brown-Shih (Ann. of Math. 69:223-246, 1959, Publ. Math. Inst. Hautes Études Sci. 3: 93-176, 1962). In this note we compute the loop homology algebra by using only spectral sequences and the technique of universal examples. We therefore not only obtain Zillers' and Brown-Shihs' results in an elementary way, we also replace the roundabout computations of Cohen, Jones and Yan (The loop homology algebra of spheres and projective spaces, 2004) making them independent of Ziller's and Brown-Shihs' work. Moreover we offer an elementary technique which we expect can easily be generalized and applied to a wider family of spaces, not only the globally symmetric ones.

A Quasi-Experimental Study of Middle Level Student Engineering Understanding Pre- and Post-Treatment
Creators: name: Driessen, Emily
Publisher: name: University of Kentucky Libraries
Year: 2019

description: Abstract:
This qualitative quasi-experimental study analyzed middle-level students’ understanding of engineering before and after instruction. Students from four teachers were examined. Before and after instruction, all students completed the Draw an Engineer Test (DAET) and the Views of Nature of Engineering (VNOE) survey. Additionally, sixteen students (eight girls and eight boys) from each group (Treatment and Comparison) were interviewed before and after instruction. Findings revealed that after instruction (1) many students viewed engineers as makers/builders/workers (just as they did pre-instruction), however, the percentage of students who listed engineers as inventors, designers, and creators increased; (2) fewer students from both groups noted they had heard about the engineering design process or had considered being; (3) the interviewed Treatment students were more knowledgeable about engineers than were the interviewed Comparison students. This study is important as it is one of the first studies to examine student understanding of engineering after receiving a science-based engineering design unit, and it found the total understanding to require improvement.

description: The origin of highly-magnetized white dwarfs has remained a mystery since their initial discovery. Recent observations indicate that the formation of high-field magnetic white dwarfs is intimately related to strong binary interactions during post-main-sequence phases of stellar evolution. If a low-mass companion, such as a planet, brown dwarf, or low-mass star is engulfed by a post-main-sequence giant, the hydrodynamic drag in the envelope of the giant leads to a reduction of the companion's orbit. Sufficiently low-mass companions in-spiral until they are shredded by the strong gravitational tides near the white dwarf core. Subsequent formation of a super-Eddington accretion disk from the disrupted companion inside a common envelope can dramatically amplify magnetic fields via a dynamo. Here, we show that these disk-generated fields are sufficiently strong to explain the observed range of magnetic field strengths for isolated, high-field magnetic white dwarfs. A higher-mass binary analogue may also contribute to the origin of magnetar fields.

This deliverable (D5.2) provides FAIR data access from GA4GH public genomics data resources (e.g. European Genome Archive (EGA) using the GA4GH htsget protocol directly into Galaxy. We developed an online tutorial to explain our workflow in detail, which is associated with the Galaxy Training Network (GTN). This study shows it is feasible to adopt end-to-end (i.e. data to results) scalable FAIR analysis of clinical data, and ultimately for any future analysis on data available at the EGA. Additionally we have developed a unified resource, Cancer Galaxy, as a landing page for Cancer related workflows and tools1 which includes tools implemented/developed by CINECA and other bioinformatics groups from the EU and worldwide.

description: Cultural heritage around the world is struggling to stay alive as global markets increasingly reward efficiency and standardization over handmade, traditional processes. Yet it is this very heritage that could bring humanity together, revive cultural identities, and promote sustainable development. The Quechua textile tradition in Peru is one such practice, and its future is tenuous amidst synthetic replicas of traditional weavings that are sold in markets across Cusco. After working to revitalize this tradition for over 15 years, here I delve into theoretical understandings of the realities of safeguarding cultural heritage in an era of rapid economic change. Working collaboratively with five rural Quechua communities, I use mixed methods in this research, including ethnographic immersion, semi-structured interviews, participatory action, and an oral-tactile textile survey. I present my dissertation creatively in two parts: the warp (academic research, expressed through five empirical chapters) and the weft (six practical tools to support textile revitalization at the community level). My research is interdisciplinary, situated within the frameworks of socioecological systems, cultural heritage law, and collective intellectual property rights. I ask how local communities are navigating trade-offs among economic, environmental, and sociocultural considerations as they safeguard their cultural heritage. As part of this, I work with highland alpaca-herders to recuperate their local alpaca-rearing tradition. I also explore the relationship between authenticity and adaptation in the context of the market economy, with reference to how this relationship may affect Quechua weavers’ resilience. I assess opinions of local producers, vendors, and consumers regarding which textile attributes are considered most and least authentic, understanding that many traditional processes are adapting due to stressors like market demand, climate change, and rural-urban emigration. I argue that, when safeguarding cultural heritage, values reflecting sociocultural and environmental wellbeing are often demoted in favour of economic security. Currently, markets are not set up to support small-scale artisans, and especially artisans who are women. I put forth various solutions to these dilemmas, including recommendations about community-based certifications and the pivotal role that vendors can – and arguably ought to – play as educators, to collectively shift the market towards one that recognizes and values cultural heritage.

description: We present the results of a numerical study comparing photometric and physical properties of simulated z=6-9 galaxies to the observations taken by the WFC3 instrument aboard the Hubble Space Telescope. Using cosmological hydrodynamical simulations we find good agreement with observations in color-color space at all studied redshifts. We also find good agreement between observations and our Schechter luminosity function fit in the observable range, Muv<= -18, provided that a moderate dust extinction effect exists for massive galaxies. However beyond what currently can be observed, simulations predict a very large number of low-mass galaxies and evolving steep faint-end slopes from alpha_L = -2.15 at z=6 to alpha_L = -2.64 at z=9, with a dependence of |alpha_L| \propto (1+z)^0.59. During the same epoch, the normalization phi* increases and the characteristic magnitude Muv* becomes moderately brighter with decreasing redshift. We find similar trends for galaxy stellar mass function with evolving low-mass end slope from alpha_M = - 2.26 at z=6 to alpha_M = -2.87 at z=9, with a dependence of |alpha_M| \propto (1+z)^0.65. Together with our recent result on the high escape fraction of ionizing photons for low-mass galaxies, our results suggest that the low-mass galaxies are important contributor of ionizing photons for the reionisation of the Universe at z>=6.

description: 10th CERN Latin-American School of High-Energy Physics, CLASHEP2019, Cordoba, Argentina, 13 Mar 2019 - 26 Mar 2019
description: A huge breakthrough in particle physics was achieved with the discovery of the Higgs boson in 2012, which was followed by precision measurements of its properties. So far, the discovered particle is found to be in good agreement with the predictions of the Standard Model, but there is still sizable room for theories with extended Higgs sectors, like Supersymmetry or general Two Higgs Doublet Models. Besides additional Higgs bosons, these models may also feature a significant enhancement of the Higgs boson coupling to b quarks. In this analysis, heavy neutral Higgs bosons are targeted which decay into two b quarks and are produced in association with one or two further b quarks, resulting in a fully hadronic final state. The search is performed with data collected in 2016 and 2017 with the CMS detector at the LHC at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 36.0/fb (2017) and 35.7/fb (2016).
Beyond learning curves : understanding stochasiticity and learned solution modes in reinforcement learning
Creators: name: Wilson, Matthew
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: While deep reinforcement learning (Deep RL) algorithms have been used to successfully solve challenging decision making and control tasks, their behavior often remains poorly understood. Studies and comparisons between algorithms are often done through impoverished and partial signals such as learning curves and individual rollout videos. In this work, we follow along a tradition of work which dives deeper into why exactly algorithms produce different rewards from run to run on different tasks. We aim to go beyond learning curves and develop a more holistic view of both the optimization landscape of particular environments and the multimodal behaviors that algorithms produce for given environments. To this end, we develop a set of tools for comparing many runs of deep reinforcement learning algorithms and rollouts from a single policy. We use these to answer a broad range of questions about RL.

description: During the last few decades, the rapid separation of the Small Aral Sea from the isolated basin has changed its hydrological and ecological conditions tremendously. In the present study, we developed and validated the hybrid model for the Syr Darya River basin based on a combination of state-of-the-art hydrological and machine learning models. Climate change impact on freshwater inflow into the Small Aral Sea for the projection period 2007–2099 has been quantified based on the developed hybrid model and bias corrected and downscaled meteorological projections simulated by four General Circulation Models (GCM) for each of three Representative Concentration Pathway scenarios (RCP). The developed hybrid model reliably simulates freshwater inflow for the historical period with a Nash–Sutcliffe efficiency of 0.72 and a Kling–Gupta efficiency of 0.77. Results of the climate change impact assessment showed that the freshwater inflow projections produced by different GCMs are misleading by providing contradictory results for the projection period. However, we identified that the relative runoff changes are expected to be more pronounced in the case of more aggressive RCP scenarios. The simulated projections of freshwater inflow provide a basis for further assessment of climate change impacts on hydrological and ecological conditions of the Small Aral Sea in the 21st Century.

description: At the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in Spring 2020, most European universities quickly switched to distance learning. One of the aims of the InCompEdu project was to gather experiences of online teaching during this sudden transition. Specifically, the in this report we aimed to identify the challenges arising from the sudden shift to online teaching, the solutions found, and how online teaching methods developed during the pandemic. The plans of the teachers for the future were also examined. A questionnaire was conducted in InCompEdu partner countries, including Croatia, Finland, Italy, Poland, Romania, and Slovenia. Interviews were also conducted in each country. This report presents the results of the questionnaire, while the interviews will be reported in another report, Teacher stories. The start of the lockdown and the shift to online teaching took place at different times in different countries, depending on when the virus reached each country's borders. As a result, teachers' experiences with online teaching varied across the countries examined. The questionnaire was designed to cover a wide range of online teaching experiences and methods. The different experiences and traditions of the respondents related to online teaching are reflected in the answers of the teachers, and sometimes the concepts may have been understood differently. The questionnaire aimed to map the situation before the COVID-19 pandemic and the experience of teachers in online teaching and teaching methods used. Respondents were also asked about the main challenges and how they were solved during the sudden shift to online teaching. Additionally, the questionnaire explored current challenges, teaching methods, and best practices. Finally, future perspectives, such as the planned share of online teaching and activities, were examined, including the preferred share of online teaching in the future and reasons behind the choices. The preliminary results of the questionnaire were presented in a Multiplier Event, Challenges and best practices in remote and hybrid academic teaching, and the report of the event is included in Annex VII. The results provide a comprehensive view of the views of academic teachers in the partner countries of the project regarding the current aspects of online teaching and possible future developments. The academic teachers reported a multitude of experiences, challenges, and best practices related to online teaching during the pandemic.

description: We propose a method to evaluate spectral functions on the lattice based on a variational method. On a lattice with a finite spatial extent, spectral functions consist of discrete spectra only. Adopting a variational method, we calculate the locations and the heights of spectral functions at low-lying discrete spectra. We first test the method in the case of analytically solvable free Wilson quarks at zero and finite temperatures and confirm that the method well reproduces the analytic results for low-lying spectra. We find that we can systematically improve the results by increasing the number of trial states. We then apply the method to calculate the charmonium spectral functions for S and P-wave states at zero-temperature in quenched QCD and compare the results with those obtained using the conventional maximum entropy method (MEM). The results for the ground state are consistent with the location and the area of the first peak in spectral functions from the MEM, while the variational method leads to a mass which is closer to the experimental value for the first excited state. We also investigate the temperature dependence of the spectral functions for S-wave states below and above $T_c$. We obtain no clear evidences for dissociation of $J/ψ$ and $η_c$ up to 1.4$T_c$.

description: Large fusiform and dissecting type intracranial aneurysms represent a challenge to both endovascular as well as microsurgical treatment approaches. Those involving the upper basilar artery and basilar apex represent a particular challenge. In many cases these aneurysms are not amenable to intravascular coiling without occluding the parent vessel. Clip reconstructions of such aneurysms are technically difficult, and are also associated with a high probability of morbidity and mortality. We present an interesting case involving a ruptured fusiform aneurysm of the basilar apex.

An algebraic approach is presented, allowing for a discussion of partial classical extension, amounting to reduction of the number of contexts, classical representability arising as a special case. As a result, known techniques are generalized and some of the associated computational difficulties overcome. The implications on the discussion of Boole-Bell inequalities are indicated.

We focus our analysis on the strongly interacting regime, where the on-site repulsion is of the order of or greater than the band width. We compute the equation of state, double occupancy, entropy, uniform susceptibility, and spin correlations for temperatures that are similar to or below the ones achieved in current optical lattice experiments. We provide a quantitative analysis of adiabatic cooling of trapped fermions in two dimensions, by means of both flattening the trapping potential and increasing the interaction strength.

Tumour intrinsic mechanisms of immunosuppression in T cell function and response to lung cancer
Creators: name: Melese, Etienne
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: The immune response to solid tumours involves a complex interplay of both tumour-promoting immunosuppression and tumour inhibition via targeted cell killing. As tumour development progresses, immunosuppression occurs in the tumour microenvironment (TME) and killer CD8⁺ T cell activity can become inhibited by checkpoint receptor engagement. Current immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI) are only effective in a subset of lung cancer patients and alternate immune evasion strategies can render these therapeutics less successful. To better understand mechanisms behind alternate immune evasion, this thesis examined whether tumour cell-secreted chemokines, circulating immune cells, and CD4⁺ tissue resident memory T cells (CD4⁺ Trm) can shape immunosuppression in the TME. In Chapter 3, driver oncogenes in lung cancer cells were shown to induce production of the chemokine, CCL5. Mouse models with tumour cell CCL5 knockdown had decreased regulatory T cells (Tregs), display reduced evidence of T cell exhaustion and reduced lung tumour burden. This shows that tumour cell CCL5 production contributes to an immune suppressive environment in the lungs. Chapter 4 details a longitudinal, peripheral blood-based immunophenotyping study of stage IV NSCLC patients treated with anti-PD-1 ICI. This study identified several innate and adaptive immune cell populations, markers of interest, and cytokines that were altered pre-treatment or during ICI in a patient with durable clinical benefit compared to early progressors. These findings will help focus future, larger studies on peripheral blood biomarkers of response to ICI. Chapter 5 assessed CD4⁺ Trm cells presence, location, and potential function in lung cancer. We established that both genetically engineered and syngeneic mouse models of lung cancer had increased CD4⁺ Trm cells with distinct expression of checkpoint programmed death receptor-1 (PD-1), Th1 or Th2 transcriptional profiles, and type-1 cytokine production. In NSCLC patients, transcriptomic signatures of CD4⁺ Trm cells correlated with improved survival. In summation, the data details how tumour cell oncogenic signaling-induced CCL5 can contribute to immunosuppression in the TME, that longitudinal alteration to circulating immune cells and cytokines distinguished a patient with durable response to ICI and that populations of CD4⁺ Trm cells were a significant component of the immune response in mouse models of lung cancer.

We establish an equivalence between a scaling limit of the partition function of the six-vertex model on a cylinder with quasi-local operators inserted and special boundary conditions, corresponding to particle-hole excitations, on the one hand, and certain three-point correlation functions of conformal field theory (CFT) on the other hand. As in hidden Grassmann structure IV, the fermionic basis developed in previous papers and its conformal limit are used for a description of the quasi-local operators. In paper IV we claimed that in the conformal limit the fermionic creation operators generate a basis equivalent to the basis of the descendant states in the conformal field theory modulo integrals of motion suggested by A. Zamolodchikov (1987). Here we argue that, in order to completely determine the transformation between the above fermionic basis and the basis of descendants in the CFT, we need to involve excitations. On the side of the lattice model we use the excited-state TBA approach. We consider in detail the case of the descendant at level 8.

description: Agegraphic dark energy, has been recently proposed, based on the so-called Karolyhazy uncertainty relation, which arises from quantum mechanics together with general relativity. In the first part of the article we study the original agegraphic dark energy model by including the interaction between agegraphic dark energy and pressureless (dark) matter. The phase space analysis was made and the critical points were found, one of which is the attractor corresponding to an accelerated expanding Universe. Recent observations of near supernova show that the acceleration of Universe decreases. This phenomenon is called the transient acceleration. In the second part of Article we consider the 3-component Universe composed of a scalar field, interacting with the dark matter on the agegraphic dark energy background. We show that the transient acceleration appears in frame of such a model. The obtained results agree with the observations.

description: Preeclampsia is a leading cause of maternal and fetal morbidity and mortality. Currently, there is no cure for preeclampsia except delivery of the placenta, which is central to preeclampsia pathogenesis. Transcriptional profiling of human placenta from pregnancies complicated by preeclampsia and control has been extensively performed to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs). DEGs are identified using unbiased assays, however the decisions to investigate DEGs experimentally are biased by many factors (e.g., investigator interests, available reagents, knowledge of gene function) causing many DEGs to remain uninvestigated. To address this shortcoming, we utilized existing linked open biomedical resources and publicly available high-throughput transcriptional profiling data to identify and annotate the function of currently uninvestigated preeclampsia-associated DEGs. Using the keyword “preeclampsia”, we identified and reviewed 68 publicly available human gene expression experiments deposited in the Gene Expression Omnibus. Meta-analysis of the 13 experiments meeting our inclusion criteria generated a list of 273 DEGs. We annotated these genes using a knowledge graph constructed with Semantic Web Technologies that contained several Open Biomedical Ontologies and publicly available datasets. The relative complement of the annotation-derived and meta-analysis derived genes were identified as the uninvestigated preeclampsia-associated genes. Experimentally investigated DEGs were then identified from published literature based on semantic and syntactic annotations to PubMed abstracts by PubTator and PubAnnotation. Finally, novel biological relationships between experimentally investigated and uninvestigated preeclampsia-associated genes were identified by learning neuro-symbolic logic embeddings to predict missing edges in the knowledge graph.

description: We study the geometric measure of entanglement (GM) of pure symmetric states related to rank-one positive-operator-valued measures (POVMs) and establish a general connection with quantum state estimation theory, especially the maximum likelihood principle. Based on this connection, we provide a method for computing the GM of these states and demonstrate its additivity property under certain conditions. In particular, we prove the additivity of the GM of pure symmetric multiqubit states whose Majorana points under Majorana representation are distributed within a half sphere, including all pure symmetric three-qubit states. We then introduce a family of symmetric states that are generated from mutually unbiased bases (MUBs), and derive an analytical formula for their GM. These states include Dicke states as special cases, which have already been realized in experiments. We also derive the GM of symmetric states generated from symmetric informationally complete POVMs (SIC~POVMs) and use it to characterize all inequivalent SIC~POVMs in three-dimensional Hilbert space that are covariant with respect to the Heisenberg--Weyl group. Finally, we describe an experimental scheme for creating the symmetric multiqubit states studied in this article and a possible scheme for measuring the permanent of the related Gram matrix.

Phase transitions and critical behavior of black branes in canonical ensemble

description: We study the thermodynamics and phase structure of asymptotically flat non-dilatonic as well as dilatonic black branes in a cavity in arbitrary dimensions ($D$). We consider the canonical ensemble and so the charge inside the cavity and the temperature at the wall are fixed. We analyze the stability of the black brane equilibrium states and derive the phase structures. For the zero charge case we find an analog of Hawking-Page phase transition for these black branes in arbitrary dimensions. When the charge is non-zero, we find that below a critical value of the charge, the phase diagram has a line of first-order phase transition in a certain range of temperatures which ends up at a second order phase transition point (critical point) as the charge attains the critical value. We calculate the critical exponents at that critical point. Although our discussion is mainly concerned with the non-dilatonic branes, we show how it easily carries over to the dilatonic branes as well.

description: Durante el proceso de la comunicación se tiene como fin la trasmisión de un mensaje,
 esto implica una serie de elementos que permitan la comprensión de la información que
 estamos brindando. Lo anterior, nos lleva a dividir la comunicación en dos dimensiones, la
 verbal y la no verbal. Algunas personas afirman que en una conversación el 7% son
 expresiones verbales y el 93% son no verbales, estas últimas se dividen a su vez en un 38%
 de aspectos prosódicos de la voz y un 55% son, expresiones faciales, postura, mirada y gestos.
 (Valderrama Cárdenas et al., 2020).
 Ahora bien, en el desarrollo del estudio del aspecto no verbal pasamos del término
 expresión no verbal al termino gesto, que nos muestra una clara relación entre el relato y las
 expresiones faciales o el acompañamiento de las manos durante la comunicación,
 identificando que a través de los gestos se expresa información adicional a la trasmitida a
 través de la comunicación verbal, esto quiere decir que los gestos cuentan con un significado
 único y contienen conocimiento. Es allí en donde se evidencia la implicación del gesto en el
 aprendizaje y mecanismos relacionados con la memoria y la percepción, el gesto nos muestra
 pensamientos no hablados, nos aporta significado y nos ayuda a retener información del
 relato. (Valderrama Cárdenas et al., 2020).

description: High-resolution spectroscopic characterization of young super-Jovian planets enables precise constraints on elemental and isotopic abundances of their atmospheres. As part of the ESO SupJup Survey, we present high-resolution spectral observations of two wide-orbit super-Jupiters in YSES 1 (or TYC 8998-760-1) using the upgraded VLT/CRIRES+ (R~100,000) in K-band. We carry out free atmospheric retrieval analyses to constrain chemical and isotopic abundances, temperature structures, rotation velocities, and radial velocities. We confirm the previous detection of 13CO in YSES 1 b at a higher significance of 12.6σ, but point to a higher 12CO/13CO ratio of 88+/-13 (1σ confidence interval), consistent with the primary's isotope ratio 66+/-5. We retrieve a solar-like composition in YSES 1 b with a C/O=0.57+/-0.01, indicating a formation via gravitational instability or core accretion beyond the CO iceline. Additionally, the observations lead to detections of H2O and CO in the outer planet YSES 1 c at 7.3σ and 5.7σ, respectively. We constrain the atmospheric C/O ratio of YSES 1 c to be either solar or subsolar (C/O=0.36+/-0.15), indicating the accretion of oxygen-rich solids. The two companions have distinct vsini, 5.34+/-0.14 km/s for YSES 1 b and 11.3+/-2.1 km/s for YSES 1 c, despite their similar natal environments. This may indicate different spin axis inclinations or effective magnetic braking by the long-lived circumplanetary disk around YSES 1 b. YSES 1 represents an intriguing system for comparative studies of super-Jovian companions and linking present atmospheres to formation histories.
