description: In situ spacecraft data on the solar wind show events identified as magnetic reconnection with outflows and apparent "`$X$-lines" $10^{3-4}$ times ion scales. To understand the role of turbulence at these scales, we make a case study of an inertial-range reconnection event in a magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulation. We observe stochastic wandering of field-lines in space, breakdown of standard magnetic flux-freezing due to Richardson dispersion, and a broadened reconnection zone containing many current sheets. The coarse-grain magnetic geometry is like large-scale reconnection in the solar wind, however, with a hyperbolic flux-tube or "$X$-line" extending over integral length-scales.

description: Seasonal variation in environmental variables, and in rates of contact among individuals, are fundamental drivers of infectious disease dynamics. Unlike most periodically forced physical systems, for which the precise pattern of forcing is typically known, underlying patterns of seasonal variation in transmission rates can be estimated approximately at best, and only the period of forcing is accurately known. Yet solutions of epidemic models depend strongly on the forcing function, so dynamical predictions—such as changes in epidemic patterns that can be induced by demographic transitions or mass vaccination—are always subject to the objection that the underlying patterns of seasonality are poorly specified. Here, we demonstrate that the key bifurcations of the standard epidemic model are invariant to the shape of seasonal forcing if the amplitude of forcing is appropriately adjusted. Consequently, analyses applicable to real disease dynamics can be conducted with a smooth, idealized sinusoidal forcing function, and qualitative changes in epidemic patterns can be predicted without precise knowledge of the underlying forcing pattern. We find similar invariance in a seasonally forced predator–prey model, and conjecture that this phenomenon—and the associated robustness of predictions—might be a feature of many other periodically forced dynamical systems.

 composed of three or four cells: two secretory supporting cells and one or two multiciliated primary sensory cells, which
 are presumed to be mechanoreceptors. In these cells, interior skeletal elements, like the large intracellular ciliary rootlets
 of the glycerids, are absent. The function of the papillae is discussed.

Preliminary study of the heavy metal chemistry of schorre and slikke clay deposits in the Brouage region: concentration of Cd, Sn and As related to P
Creators: name: VELDE, Bruce
Publisher: name: Station Biologique de Roscoff (SBR)
Year: 2006

description: Mineralogical and chemical analysis (major and minor elements, such as heavy metals) of sediments in the
 Brouage area indicates that the clay–rich muds deposited were derived from the major coastal rivers, the Gironde and the
 Loire. Certain clays, high smectite content mixed layer minerals, are under-represented suggesting loss to the open ocean.
 Relatively important related concentrations of Cd, As, Zn and Sn, higher than those in river sediments of the area, suggest
 a concentration increasing with time in costal material. It is of course possible that coastal contamination, independent of
 river input, has contributed to these concentrations. A second experiment involves destruction of organic matter in the clay
 fraction sediment samples which shows a greatly increased phosphorous concentration and a strong relation to Cd and As.
 This action could have implications for biological cycles in the mudflat environment.

description: The Kondo effect in condensed-matter systems manifests itself most sharply in their transport measurements. Here we propose an analogous transport signature of the orbital Kondo effect realized with ultracold atoms. Our system consists of imbalanced Fermi seas of two components of fermions and an impurity atom of different species which is confined by an isotropic potential. We first apply a π/2 pulse to transform two components of fermions into two superposition states. Their interactions with the impurity atom then cause a "transport" of fermions from majority to minority superposition states, whose numbers can be measured after applying another 3π/2 pulse. In particular, when the interaction of one component of fermions with the impurity atom is tuned close to a confinement-induced p-wave or higher partial-wave resonance, the resulting conductance is shown to exhibit the Kondo signature, i.e., universal logarithmic growth by lowering the temperature. The proposed transport measurement will thus provide a clear evidence of the orbital Kondo effect accessible in ultracold atom experiments and pave the way for developing new insights into Kondo physics.

description: The north western waters of Sicily mix with those of the Western Mediterranean and are interested to the flow of waters of Atlantic origin in the South Tyrrhenian Sea. The research intended to find out if sampling carried out during a very short time in that area could evidence correlations between hydrological and planktonic situations. Forty samples were collected in surface waters by an high speed plankton sampler, Isaacs-Kidd model, over 350 square miles, within 48 hours, in July 1967. Temperature and salinity were measured. The study has shown different aspects of qualitative distribution, empty areas, and areas with low population densities. These patterns were related to diurnal migrations and the hydrological situation. The latter one was confirmed by the T/S diagram to which the qualitative and quantitative distribution of some species of Copepods and some planktonic groups was related. The pattern of the T/S diagram interprets as well the variations of the density of the planktonic population as a whole in a definite zone of the sampling area interested to the hydrological situation.

description: One hundred individuals of the murex Hexaplex trunculus were sampled monthly at two stations in Bizerta
 lagoon (Tunisia) from January to July 2003. The station of Menzel Jemil was located in the east side of Bizerta lagoon and
 the one of the cement factory in the channel. Total length of shells varied from 40 to 60 mm. Temperature, salinity, dissolved
 oxygen and pH were simultaneously measured during the gastropod samplings. Results on the relative growth of the shell
 opening and on the dry flesh revealed that both bio-measures were higher in the lagoon than in the channel. However,
 weight growth of the shell was higher in the channel for individuals beyond 60 mm long. Comparing females between them
 and males between them showed that both dry flesh and dry shell growth was higher for individuals from the cement fac-
 tory site beyond a certain size. Examination of the soft part of 100 to 150 specimens collected in January, March and June
 2003 showed that the rate of imposex was 100% at the station of the cement factory but only 65.8% at the Menzel Jemil
 site. The intensity of development of the male genital tract in the females (imposex) seemed to have an impact on murex
 fecundity. Following a gamete emission (which proceeded in aquarium) during the period of spawning (February to June),
 the rate of specimens emitting the capsules as well as the average fecundity were more prevalent in the lagoon than in the
 channel. It is concluded that the exaggerated development of the male genital tract, primarily the vas deferens, in females
 at the cement factory station leads to a reduction of the gamete emission.

description: The purpose of this paper is to propose a semi-analytical technique convenient for numerical approximation of solutions of the initial value problem for $p$-dimensional delayed and neutral differential systems with constant, proportional and time varying delays. The algorithm is based on combination of the method of steps and the differential transformation. Convergence analysis of the presented method is given as well. Applicability of the presented approach is demonstrated in two examples: A system of pantograph type differential equations and a system of neutral functional differential equations with all three types of delays considered. Accuracy of the results is compared to results obtained by the Laplace decomposition algorithm, the residual power series method and Matlab package DDENSD. Comparison of computing time is done too, showing reliability and efficiency of the proposed technique.

Enhancing phonon flow through 1D interfaces by Impedance Matching

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: We extend concepts from microwave engineering to thermal interfaces and explore the principles of impedance matching in 1D. The extension is based on the generalization of acoustic impedance to non linear dispersions using the contact broadening matrix $Γ(ω)$, extracted from the phonon self energy. For a single junction, we find that for coherent and incoherent phonons the optimal thermal conductance occurs when the matching $Γ(ω)$ equals the Geometric Mean (GM) of the contact broadenings. This criteria favors the transmission of both low and high frequency phonons by requiring that (1) the low frequency acoustic impedance of the junction matches that of the two contacts by minimizing the sum of interfacial resistances; and (2) the cut-off frequency is near the minimum of the two contacts, thereby reducing the spillage of the states into the tunneling regime. For an ultimately scaled single atom/spring junction, the matching criteria transforms to the arithmetic mean for mass and the harmonic mean for spring constant. The matching can be further improved using a composite graded junction with an exponential varying broadening that functions like a broadband antireflection coating. There is however a trade off as the increased length of the interface brings in additional intrinsic sources of scattering.

description: Three species of Crassimarginatella : C. maderensis (Waters, 1898), C. crassi- marginata (Hincks, 1880) and C. solidula (Hincks, 1860), occur in the Western Mediterranean. The finding of vicarious avicularia in this last species justifies its exclusion from the genus Alderina and its new generic attribution. The different stages of autozooidal development are followed out in these three species. Ooecia formation reveals a prominent entozooidal structure, instead of an hyperstomial one, as traditionally described. The communication organs present uniporous pore plates. They seem to belong to a particular type of dietella, very primitive and simple in C. maderensis, while in C. solidula, the heavier calcification brings about a closer pore chamber-like structure. Comparative measurements of specimens from Mediterranean and from other geographical areas are given. Ecological needs and distribution of the species are discussed.

description: Mate-searching success is a critical precursor to mating, but there is a dearth of research on traits and tactics that confer a competitive advantage in finding potential mates. Theory and available empirical evidence suggest that males locate mates using mate-attraction signals produced by receptive females (personal information) and avoid inadvertently produced cues from rival males (social information) that indicate a female has likely already mated. Here, we show that western black widow males use both kinds of information to find females efficiently, parasitizing the searching effort of rivals in a way that guarantees competition over mating after reaching a female's web. This tactic may be adaptive because female receptivity is transient, and we show that (i) mate searching is risky (88% mortality) and (ii) a strongly male-biased operational sex ratio (from 1.2 : 1 to greater than 10 : 1) makes competition inevitable. Males with access to rivals' silk trails moved at higher speeds than those with only personal information, and located females even when personal information was unreliable or absent. We show that following rivals can increase the potential for sexual selection on females as well as males and argue it may be more widespread in nature than is currently realized.
Extreme Compressive Sampling for Covariance Estimation

description: This paper studies the problem of estimating the covariance of a collection of vectors using only highly compressed measurements of each vector. An estimator based on back-projections of these compressive samples is proposed and analyzed. A distribution-free analysis shows that by observing just a single linear measurement of each vector, one can consistently estimate the covariance matrix, in both infinity and spectral norm, and this same analysis leads to precise rates of convergence in both norms. Via information-theoretic techniques, lower bounds showing that this estimator is minimax-optimal for both infinity and spectral norm estimation problems are established. These results are also specialized to give matching upper and lower bounds for estimating the population covariance of a collection of Gaussian vectors, again in the compressive measurement model. The analysis conducted in this paper shows that the effective sample complexity for this problem is scaled by a factor of $m^2/d^2$ where $m$ is the compression dimension and $d$ is the ambient dimension. Applications to subspace learning (Principal Components Analysis) and learning over distributed sensor networks are also discussed.

description: Our study aims at making progress the estimate of herbicide and nutrient inputs to the Marennes-Oleron bay
 which could influence summer oysters mortalities, and to bring a better understanding of the impact on coastal ecosystems
 by modelling the dynamics of these compounds in the shellfish-farming area. The development of a strategy adapted to the
 river Charente and its estuary reveals that agricultural activity on the watershed area is omnipresent, as well on the level of
 the nitrogen as on the one of herbicides contributions. It is thus necessary to specify Charente fluxes, which is the main
 tributary of the Marennes-Oleron bay, in order to better characterize its impact on shellfish-farming activity. Hydrodynamic
 modelling will constitute an invaluable help in the risk assessment with respect to pesticides, by specifying the periods of
 the high and low concentrations of these molecules and the biotope exposure durations.

description: The relationship between charge density wave (CDW) orders and superconductivity in arsenide superconductor SrPt$_2$As$_2$ with $T_c$ = 5.2 K which crystallizes in the CaBe$_2$Ge$_2$-type structure was studied by $^{75}$As nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements up to 520 K, and $^{75}$As nuclear quadrupole resonance (NQR) and $^{195}$Pt-NMR measurements down to 1.5 K. At high temperature, $^{75}$As-NMR spectrum and nuclear spin relaxation rate ($1/T_1$) have revealed two distinct CDW orders, one realized in the As-Pt-As layer below $T_{\rm CDW}^{\rm As(1)}$ $=$ 410 K and the other in the Pt-As-Pt layer below $T_{\rm CDW}^{\rm As(2)}$ $=$ 255 K. The $1/T_1$ measured by $^{75}$As-NQR shows a clear Hebel-Slichter peak just below $T_c$ and decreases exponentially well below $T_c$. Concomitantly, $^{195}$Pt Knight shift decreases below $T_c$. Our results indicate that superconductivity in SrPt$_2$As$_2$ is in the spin-singlet state with an $s$-wave gap and is robust under the two distinct CDW orders in different layers.

description: The unit of fishing effort which has been chosen is the product of the unfolded motor power (cv) by the duration of valuable fishing (in hour).
In the zone exploited by trawlers of Concarneau, that stretches from Scotland to Penmarc’h Head, the total PUE (catch for unit effort) and Ray PUE vary in contrary direction : the first increases to the North, the second increases to the South.
The ponderal composition of Ray capture in the different zones shows the importance of three species (JR. bâtis, R. clavata, R. naevus), that constitue 70-80 % of the landed Rays.

description: Nonlocality, one of the most remarkable aspects of quantum mechanics, is closely related to Bayesian game theory. Quantum mechanics can offer advantages to some Bayesian games, if the payoff functions are related to Bell inequalities in some way. Most of these Bayesian games that have been discussed are common interest games. Recently the first conflicting interest Bayesian game is proposed in Phys. Rev. Lett. 114, 020401 (2015). In the present paper we present three new conflicting interest Bayesian games where quantum mechanics offers advantages. The first game is linked with Cereceda inequalities, the second game is linked with a generalized Bell inequality with 3 possible measurement outcomes, and the third game is linked with a generalized Bell inequality with 3 possible measurement settings.

description: Different deep-sea sites are frequently characterized by a high number of species belonging to the same genus.
 In addition, some deep-sea genera (e.g. Acantholaimus, Monhystera, Halalaimus) seem to be dominant and present world-
 wide. The genus Manganonema is present in all oceans in low to medium densities (< 2%) and, apparently, restricted to the
 deep sea (600 m and deeper). The present study deals with a revision of the genus Manganonema based upon known species
 and nine new species, where only 5 were named due to the lack of males (M. media sp. nov., M. pitilica sp. nov., M. robus-
 tus sp. nov., M. antarctica sp. nov., M. bussauensis sp. nov.). For the species identification, important characters are sum-
 marized in a pictorial key. The material studied was collected from six different sites: two in the North Atlantic (Europe),
 two in the Southern Ocean (Antarctic), one in the South-western Atlantic (Brazil), and one in Western Indian Ocean
 (Kenya). The species distribution suggests a high turnover of species between sites. Only one Manganonema species is
 recorded from two different sites in the Atlantic Ocean. These results suggest a high degree of endemism of species within
 the genus.

description: Advanced inversions of high-resolution spectropolarimetric observations of the He I triplet at 1083 nm are used to generate unique maps of the chromospheric magnetic field vector across a sunspot and its superpenumbral canopy. The observations were acquired by the Facility Infrared Spectropolarimeter (FIRS) at the Dunn Solar Telescope (DST) on 29 January 2012. Multiple atmospheric models are employed in the inversions, as superpenumbral Stokes profiles are dominated by atomic-level polarization while sunspot profiles are Zeeman-dominated but also exhibit signatures perhaps induced by symmetry breaking effects of the radiation field incident on the chromospheric material. We derive the equilibrium magnetic structure of a sunspot in the chromosphere, and further show that the superpenumbral magnetic field does not appear finely structured, unlike the observed intensity structure. This suggests fibrils are not concentrations of magnetic flux but rather distinguished by individualized thermalization. We also directly compare our inverted values with a current-free extrapolation of the chromospheric field. With improved measurements in the future, the average shear angle between the inferred magnetic field and the potential field may offer a means to quantify the non-potentiality of the chromospheric magnetic field to study the onset of explosive solar phenomena.

description: BackgroundElectronic monitoring devices (EMDs) are regarded as the “gold standard” for assessing medication adherence in research. Although EMD data provide rich longitudinal information, they are typically not used to their maximum potential. Instead, EMD data are usually combined into summary measures, which lack sufficient detail for describing complex medication-taking patterns. This paper uses recently developed methods for analyzing EMD data that capitalize more fully on their richness.MethodsRecently developed adaptive statistical modeling methods were used to analyze EMD data collected with medication event monitoring system (MEMS™) caps in a clinical trial testing the effects of motivational interviewing on adherence to antihypertensive medications in a cohort of hypertensive African-Americans followed for 12 months in primary care practices. This was a secondary analysis of EMD data for 141 of the 190 patients from this study for whom MEMS data were available.ResultsNonlinear adherence patterns for 141 patients were generated, clustered into seven adherence types, categorized into acceptable (for example, high or improving) versus unacceptable (for example, low or deteriorating) adherence, and related to adherence self-efficacy and blood pressure. Mean adherence self-efficacy was higher across all time points for patients with acceptable adherence in the intervention group than for other patients. By 12 months, there was a greater drop in mean post-baseline blood pressure for patients in the intervention group, with higher baseline blood pressure values than those in the usual care group.ConclusionAdaptive statistical modeling methods can provide novel insights into patients’ medication-taking behavior, which can inform development of innovative approaches for tailored interventions to improve medication adherence.

description: In this article, we give a comprehensive review of recent progress in research on symmetry-protected topological superfluids and topological crystalline superconductors, and their physical consequences such as helical and chiral Majorana fermions. We start this review article with the minimal model that captures the essence of such topological materials. The central part of this article is devoted to the superfluid $^3$He, which serves as a rich repository of novel topological quantum phenomena originating from the intertwining of symmetries and topologies. In particular, it is emphasized that the quantum fluid confined to nanofabricated geometries possesses multiple superfluid phases composed of the symmetry-protected topological superfluid B-phase, the A-phase as a Weyl superfluid, the nodal planar and polar phases, and the crystalline ordered stripe phase. All these phases generate noteworthy topological phenomena, including topological phase transitions concomitant with spontaneous symmetry breaking, Majorana fermions, Weyl superfluidity, emergent supersymmetry, spontaneous edge mass and spin currents, topological Fermi arcs, and exotic quasiparticles bound to topological defects. In relation to the mass current carried by gapless edge states, we also briefly review a longstanding issue on the intrinsic angular momentum paradox in $^3$He-A. Moreover, we share the current status of our knowledge on the topological aspects of unconventional superconductors, such as the heavy-fermion superconductor UPt$_3$ and superconducting doped topological insulators, in connection with the superfluid $^3$He.

Supplementary Methods, Tables, and Figures from Male black widows parasitize mate-searching effort of rivals to find females faster

description: Mate-searching success is a critical precursor to mating, but there is a dearth of research on traits and tactics that confer a competitive advantage in finding potential mates. Theory and available empirical evidence suggest that males locate mates using mate-attraction signals produced by receptive females (personal information) and avoid inadvertently produced cues from rival males (social information) that indicate a female has likely already mated. Here, we show that western black widow males use both kinds of information to find females efficiently, parasitizing the searching effort of rivals in a way that guarantees competition over mating after reaching a female's web. This tactic may be adaptive because female receptivity is transient, and we show that (i) mate searching is risky (88% mortality) and (ii) a strongly male-biased operational sex ratio (from 1.2 : 1 to greater than 10 : 1) makes competition inevitable. Males with access to rivals' silk trails moved at higher speeds than those with only personal information, and located females even when personal information was unreliable or absent. We show that following rivals can increase the potential for sexual selection on females as well as males and argue it may be more widespread in nature than is currently realized.
First record of a mature stauromedusa Stylocoronella (Cnidaria) in nature

description: Members of the scyphozoan genus Stylocoronella were initially described as polyps living in the interstitial water
 of sands, with the medusa stage unknown. Although the life cycle to mature stauromedusae has subsequently been shown
 by laboratory rearing, the medusa has never been found in nature. This contribution reports the first record of the mature
 medusa stage of Stylocoronella riedli in its natural habitat in the northern Adriatic Sea. This finding confirms laboratory
 results on its life cycle and the epibenthic habitat of this lucernariid medusa.
