description: We model the primary crater production of small (D < 100 m) primary craters on Mars and the Moon using the observed annual flux of terrestrial fireballs. From the size-frequency distribution (SFD) of meteor diameters, with appropriate velocity distributions for Mars and the Moon, we are able to reproduce martian and lunar crater-count chronometry systems (isochrons) in both slope and magnitude. We include an atmospheric model for Mars that accounts for the deceleration, ablation, and fragmentation of meteors. We find that the details of the atmosphere or the fragmentation of the meteors do not strongly influence our results. The downturn in the crater SFD from atmospheric filtering is predicted to occur at D ~ 10-20 cm, well below the downturn observed in the distribution of fresh craters detected by the Mars Global Surveyor (MGS) Mars Orbiter Camera (MOC) or the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter (MRO) Context Camera (CTX). Crater counts conducted on the ejecta blanket of Zunil crater on Mars and North Ray crater on the Moon yielded crater SFDs with similar slopes and ages (~1 Ma, and ~58 Ma, respectively) to our model, indicating that the average cratering rate has been constant on these bodies over these time periods. Since our Monte Carlo simulations demonstrate that the existing crater chronology systems can be applied to date young surfaces using small craters on the Moon and Mars, we conclude that the signal from secondary craters in the isochrons must be relatively small, as our Monte Carlo model only generates primary craters.

This family contains 417 predominantly Holarctic species (Marshall 2012, Evenhuis & Pape 2020). Rondani (1856, 1863, 1866b) described nine Palaearctic and one Nearctic nominal species: of these ten, eight appear in his paper on Italian “ Stirps Scatophaginae ” (1866b). Four species are considered as valid, four as junior synonyms and two as doubtful (Aldrich 1905, Gorodkov 1986, Gorodkov et al., 1995, Šifner 2003, Evenhuis & Pape 2020). Except for the type material of Scatina estotilandica —which is presumed lost—and additional syntypes in the MZUB (one) and in the OUMNH (one), the type material has been recovered for all nominal species and is in the MZUF.

description: We present near-infrared integral field spectroscopy of the central kiloparsec of 17 nearby luminous and ultra-luminous infrared galaxies undergoing major mergers. These observations were taken with OSIRIS assisted by the Keck I and II Adaptive Optics systems, providing spatial resolutions of a few tens of parsecs. The resulting kinematic maps reveal gas disks in at least 16 out of 19 nuclei and stellar disks in 11 out of 11 nuclei observed in these galaxy merger systems. In our late-stages mergers, these disks are young (stellar ages $<30$ Myr) and likely formed as gas disks which became unstable to star formation during the merger. On average, these disks have effective radii of a few hundred parsecs, masses between $10^{8}$ and $10^{10} M_{Sun}$, and $v/σ$ between 1 and 5. These disks are similar to those created in high-resolution hydrodynamical simulations of gas-rich galaxy mergers, and favor short coalescence times for binary black holes. The few galaxies in our sample in earlier stages of mergers have disks which are larger ($r_{eff}\sim200-1800$ pc) and likely are remnants of the galactic disks that have not yet been completely disrupted by the merger.

This family of acalyptrate flies contains 622 species (Evenhuis & Pape 2020), particularly common in temperate regions (Marshall 2012). Rondani (1863, 1868b, 1868 c, 1877b) described 12 nominal species, all but one of them Palaearctic: eight are currently considered as valid and four as junior synonyms (Knutson et al. 1976, Rivosecchi 1982, Rozkošný & Elberg 1984, Rozkošný 1985, Rivosecchi 1992 a, Munari & Rivosecchi 1995). Here, we designate a lectotype for Elgiva lateritia Rondani, 1868, Tetanocera nigricosta Rondani, 1868, Tetanocera punctifrons Rondani, 1868. In his paper on the Rondani types at MZUB, Morge (1959b) listed one unpublished manuscript name (nomen nudum) of Rondani. Except for eight paralectotypes of one species in the MRSN, the type material has been recovered for all nominal species and is in the MZUF.

Dynamic association of flavin cofactors to regulate flavoprotein function

description: Flavoproteins are key players in numerous redox pathways in cells. Flavin cofactors FMN and FAD confer the required chemical reactivity to flavoenzymes. In most cases, the interaction between the proteins and the flavins is noncovalent, yet stronger in comparison to other redox-active cofactors, such as NADH and NADPH. The association is considered static, but this view has started to change with the recent discovery of the dynamic association of flavins and flavoenzymes. Six cases from different organisms and various metabolic pathways are discussed here. The available mechanistic details span the range from rudimentary, as in the case of the ER-resident oxidoreductase Ero1, to comprehensive, as for the bacterial respiratory complex I. The same holds true in regard to the assumed functional role of the dynamic association presented here. More work is needed to clarify the structural and functional determinants of the known examples. Identification of new cases will help to appreciate the generality of the new principle of intracellular flavoenzyme regulation.

description: We present a robust imaging method based on time-correspondence imaging and normalized ghost imaging (GI) that sets two thresholds to select the reference frame exposures for image reconstruction. This double-threshold time-correspondence imaging protocol always gives better quality and signal-to-noise ratio than previous GI schemes, and is insensitive to surrounding noise. Moreover, only simple add and minus operations are required while less data storage space and computing time are consumed, thus faster imaging speeds are attainable. The protocol offers a general approach applicable to all GI techniques, and marks a further step forward towards real-time practical applications of correlation imaging.

description: The preparation and structural characterization of [NEt3Me]2[SCl6] is described, which is the first example of a [SCl6]2− dianion and of a halosulfate anion of the type [SxXy]z− in general. This dianion belongs to the group of 14‐valence electron AB6E systems and forms an octahedral structure in the solid‐state. Interestingly, co‐crystallization with CH2Cl2 affords [NEt3Me]2[SCl6]⋅4 CH2Cl2 containing [SCl6]2− dianions with c4v symmetry. As suggested by quantum‐chemical calculations, the distortion of the structure is not caused by a stereochemically active lone pair but by enhanced hydrogen bonding interactions with CH2Cl2. At elevated temperatures, [NEt3Me]2[SCl6] decomposes to various sulfur chlorine compounds as shown by Raman spectroscopy. Cooling back to room temperature results in the selective formation of [NEt3Me]2[SCl6] which is comparable to the well‐studied SCl4.

description: We develop a model for the distribution of the ISM and star formation in galaxies based on recent studies that indicate that galactic disks stabilise to a constant stability parameter, which we combine with prescriptions of how the phases of the ISM are determined and for the Star Formation Law (SFL). The model predicts the gas surface mass density and star formation intensity of a galaxy given its rotation curve, stellar surface mass density and the gas velocity dispersion. This model is tested on radial profiles of neutral and molecular ISM surface mass density and star formation intensity of 12 galaxies selected from the THINGS sample. Our tests focus on intermediate radii. Nevertheless, the model produces reasonable agreement with ISM mass and star formation rate integrated over the central region in all but one case. To optimise the model, we evaluate four recipes for the stability parameter, three recipes for apportioning the ISM into molecular and neutral components, and eight versions of the SFL. We find no clear-cut best prescription for the two-fluid (gas and stars) stability parameter Q_2f and therefore for simplicity, we use the Wang&Silk(1994) approximation (Q_WS). We found that an empirical scaling between the molecular to neutral ISM ratio (R_mol) and the stellar surface mass density proposed by Leroy et al. (2008) works marginally better than the other two prescriptions for this ratio in predicting the ISM profiles, and noticeably better in predicting star formation intensity from the ISM profiles produced by our model with the SFLs we tested. Thus in the context of our modeled ISM profiles, the linear molecular SFL and the two-component SFL (Krumholz et al. 2009) work better than the other prescriptions we tested. We incorporate these relations into our `Constant Q disk' (CQ-disk) model.

description: We propose a theoretical framework to predict the three-dimensional shapes of optically deformed micron-sized emulsion droplets with ultra-low interfacial tension. The resulting shape and size of the droplet arises out of a balance between the interfacial tension and optical forces. Using an approximation of the laser field as a Gaussian beam, working within the Rayleigh-Gans regime and assuming isotropic surface energy at the oil-water interface, we numerically solve the resulting shape equations to elucidate the three-dimensional droplet geometry. We obtain a plethora of shapes as a function of the number of optical tweezers, their laser powers and positions, surface tension, initial droplet size and geometry. Experimentally, two-dimensional droplet silhouettes have been imaged from above, but their full side-on view has not been observed and reported for current optical configurations. This experimental limitation points to ambiguity in differentiating between droplets having the same two-dimensional projection but with disparate three-dimensional shapes. Our model elucidates and quantifies this difference for the first time. We also provide a dimensionless number that indicates the shape transformation (ellipsoidal to dumbbell) at a value $\approx 1.0$, obtained by balancing interfacial tension and laser forces, substantiated using a data collapse.

description: To explore the dynamic mechanism of continental rifting within a convergent setting, we determine the first P wave radial anisotropic tomography beneath the Woodlark rift in southeastern Papua New Guinea, which develops within the obliquely colliding zone between the Australian and southwest Pacific plates. The rift zone is depicted as localized low‐velocity anomalies with positive radial anisotropy, which rules out a dominant role of active mantle upwelling in promoting the rift development and favors passive rifting with decompression melting as main processes. Downwelling slab relics in the upper mantle bounding the rift zone are revealed based on observed high‐velocity anomalies and negative radial anisotropy, which may contribute to the ultra‐high pressure rock exhumations and rift initiation. Our observations thus indicate that the Woodlark rift follows a passive model and is mainly driven by slab pull from the northward subduction of the Solomon plate.

description: We describe our completed spectroscopic survey for unbound hypervelocity stars (HVSs) ejected from the Milky Way. Three new discoveries bring the total number of unbound HVSs to 21. We place new constraints on the nature of HVSs and on their distances using moderate resolution MMT spectroscopy. Half of the HVSs are fast rotators; they are certain 2.5-4 Msun main sequence stars at 50 - 120 kpc distances. Correcting for stellar lifetime, our survey implies that unbound 2.5-4 Msun stars are ejected from the Milky Way at a rate of 1.5e-6 /yr. The observed HVSs are likely ejected continuously over the past 200 Myr and do not share a common flight time. The anisotropic spatial distribution of HVSs on the sky remains puzzling. Southern hemisphere surveys like SkyMapper will soon allow us to map the all-sky distribution of HVSs. Future proper motion measurements with Hubble Space Telescope and Gaia will provide strong constraints on origin. All existing observations are consistent with HVS ejections from encounters with the massive black hole in the Galactic center.

description: The current method for determining the sun protection factor (SPF) requires erythema formation. Noninvasive alternatives have recently been suggested by several groups. Our group previously developed a functional sensor based on diffuse reflectance measurements with one UVB LED, which was previously evaluated on pig ear skin. Here we present the results of a systematic in vivo study using 12 sunscreens on 10 volunteers (skin types [ST] I-III). The relationship of the UVB-LED reflectance of unprotected skin and melanin index was determined for each ST. The spatial variation of the reflectance signal of different positions was analyzed and seems to be mainly influenced by sample inhomogeneity except for high-protection factors (PFs) where signal levels are close to detection noise. Despite the low-signal levels, a correlation of the measured LED-based UVB PF with SPF reference values from test institutes with R-2 = 0.57 is obtained, suggesting a strong relationship of SPF and LED-based UVB-PF. Measured PFs tend to be lower for increasing skin pigmentation. The sensor design seems to be suitable for investigations where a fast measurement of relative changes of PFs, such as due to inhomogeneous application, bathing and sweating, is of interest.

description: Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are a heterogeneous group of Gram-negative prokaryotes, which all produce special magnetic organelles called magnetosomes. The magnetosome consists of a magnetic nanoparticle, either magnetite (Fe3O4) or greigite (Fe3S4), embedded in a membrane, which renders the systems colloidaly stable, a desirable property for biotechnological applications. Although these bacteria are able to regulate the formation of magnetosomes through a biologically-controlled mechanism, the environment in general and the physico-chemical conditions surrounding the cells in particular also influence biomineralization. This work thus aims at understanding how such external conditions, in particular the extracellular oxidation reduction potential, influence magnetite formation in the strain Magnetospirillum magneticum AMB-1. Controlled cultivation of the microorganisms was performed at different redox potential in a bioreactor and the formation of magnetosomes was assessed by microscopic and spectroscopic techniques. Our results show that the formation of magnetosomes is inhibited at the highest potential tested (0 mV), whereas biomineralization is facilitated under reduced conditions (-500 mV). This result improves the understanding of the biomineralization process in MTB and provides useful information in sight of a large scale production of magnetosomes for different applications. © 2019 Olszewska-Widdrat, Schiro, Reichel and Faivre.

description: After trauma, the formed fracture hematoma within the fracture gap contains all the important components (immune/stem cells, mediators) to initiate bone regeneration immediately. Thus, it is of great importance but also the most susceptible to negative influences. To study the interaction between bone and immune cells within the fracture gap, up-to-date in vitro systems should be capable of recapitulating cellular and humoral interactions and the physicochemical microenvironment (eg, hypoxia). Here, we first developed and characterized scaffold-free bone-like constructs (SFBCs), which were produced from bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) using a macroscale mesenchymal condensation approach. SFBCs revealed permeating mineralization characterized by increased bone volume (mu CT, histology) and expression of osteogenic markers (RUNX2, SPP1, RANKL). Fracture hematoma (FH) models, consisting of human peripheral blood (immune cells) mixed with MSCs, were co-cultivated with SFBCs under hypoxic conditions. As a result, FH models revealed an increased expression of osteogenic (RUNX2, SPP1), angiogenic (MMP2, VEGF), HIF-related (LDHA, PGK1), and inflammatory (IL6, IL8) markers after 12 and 48 hours co-cultivation. Osteogenic and angiogenic gene expression of the FH indicate the osteoinductive potential and, thus, the biological functionality of the SFBCs. IL-6, IL-8, GM-CSF, and MIP-1 beta were detectable within the supernatant after 24 and 48 hours of co-cultivation. To confirm the responsiveness of our model to modifying substances (eg, therapeutics), we used deferoxamine (DFO), which is well known to induce a cellular hypoxic adaptation response. Indeed, DFO particularly increased hypoxia-adaptive, osteogenic, and angiogenic processes within the FH models but had little effect on the SFBCs, indicating different response dynamics within the co-cultivation system. Therefore, based on our data, we have successfully modeled processes within the initial fracture healing phase in vitro and concluded that the cross-talk between bone and immune cells in the initial fracture healing phase is of particular importance for preclinical studies.

description: A self-consistent construction of the overlap lattice Dirac operator coupled to chiral chemical potential is proposed. With the help of the constructed operator we compute electric current induced by a constant magnetic field (Chiral Magnetic Effect). We find that the result disagrees with the one predicted by anomaly-based arguments and comment on the origin of this discrepancy. We demonstrate that a straightforward lattice calculation with a constant magnetic field and a uniform chiral chemical potential in fact corresponds to an infrared singularity in the dimensionally reduced polarization tensor and hence yields the result which is extremely sensitive to infrared regulators such as finite volume or finite temperature.

CURRENT STATUS: valid species (Rozkošný & Elberg 1984: 191, Rivosecchi 1992a: 235, Munari & Rivosecchi 1995: 5).
REMARKS: Rondani (1868c: 222) described both sexes of Tetanocera punctifrons without specifying either the number or the length of the specimens: “ mares tres et foeminam unicam inveni… In pedemontio eam invenit prof. Bellardi [I found three males and one female … Prof. Bellardi found it in Pedemontio]”. Verbeke (1964a: 10) unambiguously identified the “type” (the male specimen labeled as such), “ allotype ” (female) and “cotype” (male), which therefore must be considered, respectively, as the lectotype and paralectotypes (I.C.Z.N. 1999: Article 74.5), but did not mention an additional eight specimens in the MRSN (all are paralectotypes).

description: While Kepler has pushed the science of asteroseismology to limits unimaginable a decade ago, the need for asteroseismic studies of individual objects remains. This is primarily due to the limitations of single-colour intensity variations, which are much less sensitive to certain asteroseismic signals. The best way to obtain the necessary data is via very high resolution ground-based spectrography. Such observations measure the perceived radial-velocity shifts that arise due to stellar oscillations, which exhibit a much better signal-to-noise ratio than those for intensity observations. SONG, a proposed network of 1m telescopes with spectrographs that can reach R=110,000, was designed with this need in mind. With one node under commissioning in Tenerife and another under construction in China, an analysis of the scientific benefits of constructing additional nodes for the network is warranted. By convolving models of asteroseismic observables (mean densities, small separations) with the anticipated window functions for different node configurations, we explore the impact of the number of nodes in the SONG network on the anticipated results, across the areas of the HR diagram where solar-like oscillations are found. We find that although time series from two SONG nodes, or in some cases even one node, will allow us to detect oscillations, the full SONG network, providing full temporal coverage, is needed for obtaining the science goals of SONG, including analysis of modes of spherical harmonic degree l=3.

description: Around the globe, ineffective handovers have resulted in grave consequences, leading to handover improvement strategies being introduced, along with guidelines beingformulated in many countries. Despite this, however, few studies focused on improving handovers in a psychiatric setting. This current Quality Improvement Project aims tofill this gap and improve nursing handovers in a mental health facility by 50% over eight months. Using Lean Six Sigma's, Define Measure Analyse Improve Control framework and various quality improvement tools, the current handover process of the institution was analysed, showing that the handover summary sheet was not updated and the handovers were not documented. By observing 20 handovers against a designed checklist, a baseline median handover observation score of 4.8 was established, which corresponded to 32% of an ideal handover. A staff survey was also conducted to evaluate staff opinion regarding current handovers. Root cause analysis showed a lack of handover protocol as a modifiable cause. From the literature review and the data analysis, implementation of a HAND ME AN ISOBAR handover communication template, incorporating the minimum data needed for the ward, was suggested as a practical solution using Plan- Do- Study -Act cycles. To monitor and sustain the improvements, periodic post-intervention handover audits using the designed checklist, and then comparing it with the baseline measurements, was advised. The success of the project will help the institution’s nursing handover to be up to date, relevant, and accurate and to also comply with the National Clinical Guidelines recommendation of standardisation of handovers.

description: Historically, the banking multiplier has been in a range of 4 to 100, with 25% to 1% reserve ratios at most layers of the banking system encompassing the majority of its range in recent centuries. Here it is shown that multipliers over 1 000 can occur from a new mechanism in banking. This new multiplier uses a default insurance note to insure an outstanding loan in order to return the value of the insured amount into capital. The economic impact of this invention is calculably greater than the original invention of reserve banking. The consequence of this lending invention is to render the existing money multiplier equations of reserve banking obsolete where it occurs. The equations describing this new multiplier do not converge. Each set of parameters for reserve percentage, nesting depth, etc. creates a unique logarithmic curve rather than approaching a limit. Thus it is necessary to show the behavior of this new equation by numerical methods. Understanding this new multiplier and associated issues is necessary for economic analyses of the Global Financial Crisis.

Hysteretic melting transition of a soliton lattice in a commensurate charge modulation

description: We report on the observation of the hysteretic transition of a commensurate charge modulation in IrTe$_2$ from transport and scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) studies. Below the transition ($T_{\rm C} \approx 275$ K on cooling) a $q = 1/5$ charge modulation was observed, which is consistent with previous studies. Additional modulations [$q_n = (3n+2)^{-1}$] appear below a second transition at $T_{\rm S}\approx 180$ K on cooling. The coexistence of various modulations persist up to $T_{\rm C}$ on warming. The atomic structures of charge modulations and the temperature dependent STM studies suggest that 1/5 modulation is a periodic soliton lattice which partially melts below $T_{\rm S}$ on cooling. Our results provide compelling evidence that the ground state of IrTe$_2$ is a commensurate 1/6 charge modulation, which originates from periodic dimerization of Te atoms visualized by atomically resolved STM images.

description: Sample metadata is vital for biological and environmental research. Without metadata about samples and experiments, researchers have no way of knowing what a sample is, what factors may be influencing the experimental outcome of those samples, or how to appropriately analyze the resulting data. This is particularly important for large-scale environmental microbiome studies, where researchers may want to explore relationships between various -omics data types, biogeochemical and environmental properties to elucidate mechanisms by which microbiomes affect and are affected by their environment. Yet, sample metadata curation is often an afterthought and is frequently lacking key details or is even incorrect. The NMDC is teaming with multiple DOE User Facilities and computational resources, including the Environmental Molecular Sciences Lab (EMSL), the Joint Genome Institute (JGI), the DOE Systems Biology Knowledgebase (KBase), the Environmental Systems Science Data Infrastructure for a Virtual Ecosystem data repository (ESS-Dive) to improve sample metadata interoperability for environmental microbiome studies, and encourage data discovery and reuse.

 To drive toward that goal, we have compiled a comprehensive and computable data standard (schema) that enumerates all of the key metadata elements for an environmental microbiome sample and the typical downstream analyses performed on that sample. Leveraging the Minimum Information about any (x) Sequence (MIxS) standards and working closely with the Genomic Standards Consortium (GSC), the NMDC is implementing new terms and improving on current term definitions to expand its application and improve standardization across projects. Working with the NMDC Ambassador program, we have also collaborated closely with users and subject matter experts for multiple environmental sample types, and have adopted standardized ontologies, in particular, the Environment Ontology (EnvO). These efforts are demonstrated in the NMDC Data Portal and sample submission portal where users can find and access environmental microbiome data, and submit sample metadata about a new study using the DataHarmonizer framework. By leveraging the NMDC, researchers can expand the use of their data and those interested in using the data can do so with confidence knowing what a sample is and clearly understand all factors associated with a study. This effort is vital for data reuse and expansive analyses of environmental microbiome studies.

description: Single-cell sequencing methods provide the highest resolution insight into cellular heterogeneity. Owing to their rapid growth and decreasing cost, they are now widely accessible to scientists worldwide. Single-cell technologies enable analysis of a large number of cells, making them powerful tools to characterise rare cell types and refine our understanding of diverse cell states. Moreover, single-cell application in biomedical sciences helps to unravel mechanisms related to disease pathogenesis and outcome. In this Viewpoint, we briefly describe existing single-cell methods (genomics, transcriptomics, epigenomics, proteomics, and mulitomics), comment on available analysis tools, and give examples of method applications in the biomedical field.

description: The pentafluoroorthotellurate group (teflate, OTeF5) is able to form species, for which only the fluoride analogues are known. Despite nickel fluorides being widely investigated, nickel teflates have remained elusive for decades. By reaction of [NiCl4]2− and neat ClOTeF5, we have synthesized the homoleptic [Ni(OTeF5)4]2− anion, which presents a distorted tetrahedral structure, unlike the polymeric [NiF4]2−. This high‐spin complex has allowed the study of the electronic properties of the teflate group, which can be classified as a weak/medium‐field ligand, and therefore behaves as the fluoride analogue also in ligand‐field terms. The teflate ligands in [NEt4]2[Ni(OTeF5)4] are easily substituted, as shown by the formation of [Ni(NCMe)6][OTeF5]2 by dissolving it in acetonitrile. Nevertheless, careful reactions with other conventional ligands have enabled the crystallization of nickel teflate complexes with different coordination geometries, i.e. [NEt4]2[trans‐Ni(OEt2)2(OTeF5)4] or [NEt4][Ni(bpyMe2)(OTeF5)3].

description: Additional file 1: Figure S1. Part A Five regions—randomly labelled A-E—of greatest fMRI activation change over the three-year study duration from Phase 1, showing increased activation in areas immediately posterior to damaged structures. Co-registered functional data were concatenated into a 4D volume and passed to FSL MELODIC for independent components analysis along the 4th dimension, using automatic dimensionality estimation. Resulting temporal components were averaged into years 1–3 and compared using a paired t-test. Spatial distribution maps localized the regions of greatest changing brain activity. FSL Cluster was used to extract “neuroplasticity clusters” from the lower limb IC3 map. (Refer to Part B for activation changes over time for each of these regions). All activation is thresholded for p<0.05 (corrected). Part B: Activation changes over the three-year study duration for the five clustered regions (labelled A–E) of largest overall fMRI change (shown in Additional figure Part A). Blue lines represent the activation for each voxel within the cluster, red lines show the average activation of all voxels, and the line of best fit indicated in black to show the general trend over time.
