description: In this manuscript we discuss the device-independent conference key agreement (DICKA) protocol [Phys. Rev. A 97, 022307 (2018)]. We show that the suggested honest implementation fails, because perfect correlated measurement results and the required Bell-inequality violation cannot be achieved simultaneously, in contradiction to what is claimed. We further show via semidefinite programming that there cannot exist any suitable honest implementation in the tripartite setting, rendering the DICKA protocol incomplete.

description: Background: Neuroblastoma is the commonest extracranial solid tumor of childhood, yet rare, and with poor survival before 1990, especially for high-risk disease; thus, information on late effects is sparse. With great advances in cancer treatment, survival has reached 80% in the Nordic countries. The aim of the study was to investigate the risk of developing neurologic disorders after neuroblastoma. Material and methods: Through population-based cancer registries of four Nordic countries we identified 654 5-year survivors of neuroblastoma (diagnosed 1959–2008) and 133,668 matched population comparisons. We grouped neurologic diagnoses from national hospital registries into 11 main diagnostic categories and 56 disease-specific sub-categories and calculated relative risks (RRs), absolute excess risks (AERs), cumulative incidence and mean cumulative count (MCC). Information on cancer treatment was available for 49% of survivors. Results: A hospital contact for a neurologic disorder was observed in 181 survivors 5 years or more from cancer diagnosis with 59 expected, yielding a RR of 3.1 (95% CI 2.7–3.6) and an AER of 16 per 1,000 person-years (95% CI 12–19). The most frequent disorders included epilepsy, paralytic syndromes, diseases of the eyes and ears and hearing loss. The cumulative incidence of any neurologic disorder was 31% in survivors 20 years after cancer diagnosis with a MCC of 0.5 unique diagnoses. All risks were highest in survivors of high-risk neuroblastoma. Conclusion: Neuroblastoma survivors represent a population with a high risk of developing neurologic disorders. Our results should contribute to improving health care planning and underscores the need for systematic follow-up care of this vulnerable group of survivors.

description: All-solid-state batteries potentially offer safe, high-energy-density electrochemical energy storage, yet are plagued with issues surrounding Li microstructural growth and subsequent cell death. We use 7Li NMR chemical shift imaging and electron microscopy to track Li microstructural growth in the garnet-type solid electrolyte, Li6.5La3Zr1.5Ta0.5O12. Here, we follow the early stages of Li microstructural growth during galvanostatic cycling, from the formation of Li on the electrode surface to dendritic Li connecting both electrodes in symmetrical cells, and correlate these changes with alterations observed in the voltage profiles during cycling and impedance measurements. During these experiments, we observe transformations at both the stripping and plating interfaces, indicating heterogeneities in both Li removal and deposition. At low current densities, 7Li magnetic resonance imaging detects the formation of Li microstructures in cells before short-circuits are observed and allows changes in the electrochemical profiles to be rationalized.

description: The recovery from the Great Recession has been slow compared to previous recoveries. However, at the state level the pace of improvement has varied considerably. This study in-vestigates the reasons for the variation in state economic recovery from the Great Recession by identifying determinants of two performance measures: growth in state real gross domestic product (GDP) and growth in state nonfarm payroll employment. The results showed that economic structure of the state matters; in particular, states with relatively larger GDP shares in agriculture, energy, financial services, and durable manufacturing (especially for motor ve-hicles and parts) had faster GDP growth, while concentrations in financial services and dura-ble manufacturing were associated with greater employment growth. States increasing indi-vidual income and corporate income taxes during the recession and recovery had slower GDP and job growth, while states increasing minor taxes and fees had a faster GDP recovery. Last-ly, states receiving more funds from the American Recovery Act experienced faster recoveries in both GDP and jobs.

description: Computational methods increasingly provide access for Quantitative-Structure-Activity Relationship (QSAR) models to molecular descriptors that have minimal identifiable or experimentally accessible chemical/physical properties. However, molecular information inherent in chromatographic data suggests chromatography as a convenient experimental platform for legitimizing newly proposed molecular descriptors. In this study, liquid chromatographic retention data collected on a trimethylammonium (TAM) anion exchange stationary phase was used to evaluate two new molecular descriptors, P− and P+ developed to account for contributions from ion-π interactions. In the Linear Solvation Energy Relationship (LSER) model, the P− and P+ parameter replaced E. Incorporation of the new parameters was most impactful on S (sconv= −0.173 ± 0.070 vs. smod -0.115 ± 0.081). The remaining coefficients (v, b, c) were within experimental error of their respective coefficients in the conventional model. Nonparametric statistical analysis revealed comparable goodness of fits for the conventional and modified models. Finally, comparison of the contribution of individual interaction modes for substituted benzenes (log kbenzene-X) relative to benzene (log kbenzene) conducted with the new model was consistent with chemical intuition for the model-attributed ion − π and other individual interaction modes. Thus, adoption of P descriptors into the LSER model provides a convenient means for exploring models for weak ion − π interactions.

description: The Gauss self-linking integral of an unframed knot is not a knot invariant, but it can be turned into an invariant by adding a correction term which requires adding extra structure to the knot. We collect the different definitions/theorems/proofs concerning this correction term, most of which are well-known (at least as folklore) and put everything together in an accessible format. We then show simply and elegantly how these approaches coincide.

description: The imported iron ore transport chain is a complex system concerning different transport modes, means, and routes within water areas and various regions on the land. However, the relevant literature has only tackled the carbon mitigation of a single transport mode in a specific region. Under China’s road-to-rail policy, this article investigates the total transport cost, carbon and nitrogen emissions of the imported iron ore transport chain between Brazil and the steel enterprises in the Bohai Economic Rim (BER), and established a model to select the optimal transport plan. Inspired by the policies calling for capacity structure reform of steel industry and energy structure adjustment of highway transport, the authors set up 12 scenarios and estimate the cost and emissions. The results demonstrate the positive economic and environmental impacts of the road-to-rail policy, the development of multimodal transport of railway and waterway (MTRW), and the capacity structure adjustment of the steel industry. However, the impacts of capacity structure adjustment might be marginalized. Besides, natural gas trucks are proved important to fulfilling the goal of clean highway transport. Finally, the discussion on the recent policy of liquidation mechanism reform reveals that the unit railway transport cost should be reduced moderately. Otherwise, the reduction cannot save total transport cost, but cause greater carbon and nitrogen emissions.

description: Grand unification, and its incarnation in the form of heterotic-string unification, are the only extensions of the Standard Model that are rooted in the structure of the Standard Model itself. In this context, it was proposed that the exclusiveness of proton stability and suppression of neutrino masses necessitates the existence of an additional U(1)_Z' symmetry, which is of non-GUT origin and remains unbroken down to intermediate, or low, energies. Realistic string models frequently give rise to non-GUT U(1) symmetries, which arise from the flavor symmetries in the models. In this paper we demonstrate in a string-inspired toy model that such a stringy Z' can indeed guarantee proton longevity and viable phenomenology in the neutrino sector, as well as in the quark and charged lepton sectors.

We explicitly write down the standard as well as supernumerary Killing spinors and find that their respective numbers are also half of those for the pp-wave background. This is in line with the recent work of Dabholkar et.al. which shows half-supersymmetric D-branes can be constructed in Hpp-wave background.

description: Inspired by the renewed experimental activities on $p$-wave resonantly interacting atomic Fermi gases, we theoretically investigate some experimental observables of such systems at zero temperature in two dimensions, using both mean-field theory and Gaussian pair fluctuation theory. These observables include the two $p$-wave contact parameters and the breathing mode frequency, which can be readily measured in current cold-atom setups with $^{40}$K and $^{6}$Li atoms. We find that the many-body component of the two contact parameters exhibits a pronounced peak slightly above the resonance and consequently leads to a dip in the breathing mode frequency. In the resonance limit, we discuss the dependence of the equation of state and the breathing mode frequency on the dimensionless effective range of the interaction, $k_{F}R_{p}\ll1$, where $k_{F}$ is the Fermi wavevector and $R_{p}$ is the effective range. The breathing mode frequency $ω_{B}$ deviates from the scale-invariant prediction of $ω_{c}=2ω_{0}$, where $ω_{0}$ is the trapping frequency of the harmonic potential. This frequency shift is caused by the necessary existence of the effective range. In the small range limit, we predict that the mode frequency deviation at the leading order is given by, $δω_{B}\simeq-(ω_{0}/4)\ln^{-1}(k_{F}R_{p})$.

description: Non-labor income (NLI) is one of the largest and fastest growing sources of income, constituting more than one-third of personal income in the U.S. West. Given the unprecedent-ed growth in NLI and its diverse make-up, which includes investment income, Social Security, Medicare and Medicaid, and welfare, it is worth asking what effect the different types of NLI have on local economies and social well-being. We classify NLI into payments associated with investments, aging, and economic hardship, and then we use an empirical approach to evalu-ate the relationships between these NLI types and socioeconomic performance in western counties. We find that the NLI types accruing in the West are concentrated in rural counties and are associated with predictable, and in many cases undesirable, socioeconomic character-istics. Policies and demographic trends that affect the disbursement of NLI (e.g., aging baby boomers and reforms to retirement, income maintenance, and medical benefits) will have widespread effects, particularly in the rural West.

description: Dye-sensitized photoelectrochemical (DSPEC) cells are an emerging approach to producing solar fuels. The recent development of delafossite CuCrO2 as a p-type semiconductor has enabled H2 generation through the coassembly of catalyst and dye components. Here, we present a CuCrO2 electrode based on a high-surface-area inverse opal (IO) architecture with benchmark performance in DSPEC H2 generation. Coimmobilization of a phosphonated diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP-P) or perylene monoimide (PMI-P) dye with a phosphonated molecular Ni catalyst (NiP) demonstrates the ability of IO-CuCrO2 to photogenerate H2. A positive photocurrent onset potential of approximately +0.8 V vs RHE was achieved with these photocathodes. The DPP-P-based photoelectrodes delivered photocurrents of -18 μA cm-2 and generated 160 ± 24 nmol of H2 cm-2, whereas the PMI-P-based photocathodes displayed higher photocurrents of -25 μA cm-2 and produced 215 ± 10 nmol of H2 cm-2 at 0.0 V vs RHE over the course of 2 h under visible light illumination (100 mW cm-2, AM 1.5G, λ > 420 nm, 25 °C). The high performance of the PMI-constructed system is attributed to the well-suited molecular structure and photophysical properties for p-type sensitization. These precious-metal-free photocathodes highlight the benefits of using bespoke IO-CuCrO2 electrodes as well as the important role of the molecular dye structure in DSPEC fuel synthesis.

description: Previous studies have confirmed the agricultural stage as an important contributor to total tea life cycle greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. We therefore focus on the growing and processing of black tea and evaluate the GHG reduction potential of possible agricultural management interventions for tea produced from Unilever’s tea estates and factories in Kenya. A baseline GHG footprint was calculated using data collected over four years. Potential interventions to reduce the GHG footprint per kg of black tea focused on key drivers (yield and fertiliser use) of the GHG footprint. These interventions and their effects on production are evidence-based but hypothetical and relate to possible changes in: (1) Harvesting practices; (2) Fertiliser application (timing) and (3) Organic production. Improvements in fertiliser application and harvesting practices could potentially deliver 16% and 9% reduction in GHG emissions, respectively. Under favourable conditions (sourcing fertiliser locally and no yield decline), changing to organic production could theoretically deliver 25% reduction in GHG emissions. However, under less favourable conditions (European sourced fertiliser and 30% yield decline), GHG emissions could increase by 41%. The availability of locally sourced organic fertiliser, sufficient to maintain nitrogen application rates, is seen as the biggest challenge in delivering sustainable organic tea cultivation.

description: Economic contribution studies are full of challenging theoretical and methodological is-sues. The economic export base method for conducting contribution analysis presented ad-dresses the challenge of double counting while increasing an analyst’s insight into a regional economy. Using data from regional social accounts, an economic export base model is pre-sented that simultaneously separates export base contributions for each sector as a row of col-umn vector sums. The export base measures of economic activity by sector serve as an inter-nally consistent and externally correspondent measure of any given sector’s ex post regional economic contribution. The sum total of the export base and original “gross” measures of economic activity across sectors are equal for the economy but are almost always unequal by sector. These base measures are also valuable by themselves and as inputs into further anal-yses into questions regarding competitive advantage, diversity, resilience, dependency, typol-ogy, and growth.

description: We introduce a theoretical framework for the new concept of three-dimensional (3D) twistronics by developing a generalized Bloch band theory for 3D layered systems with a constant twist angle $θ$ between successive layers. Our theory employs a nonsymmorphic symmetry that enables a precise definition of an effective out-of-plane crystal momentum, and also captures the in-plane moiré pattern formed between neighboring twisted layers. To demonstrate the novel topological physics that can be achieved through 3D twistronics, we present two examples. In the first example of chiral twisted graphite, Weyl nodes arise because of inversion-symmetry breaking, with $θ$-tuned transitions between type-I and type-II Weyl fermions, as well as magic angles at which the in-plane velocity vanishes. In the second example of twisted Weyl semimetal, the twist in the lattice structure induces a chiral gauge field $\boldsymbol{\mathcal{A}}$ that has a vortex-antivortex lattice configuration. Line modes bound to the vortex cores of the $\boldsymbol{\mathcal{A}}$ field give rise to 3D Weyl physics in the moiré scale. We also discuss possible experimental realizations of 3D twistronics.

description: Local drug delivery directly to the source of a given pathology using retrodialysis is a promising approach to treating otherwise untreatable diseases. As the primary material component in retrodialysis, the semipermeable membrane represents a critical point for innovation. This work presents a new ionic hydrogel based on polyethylene glycol and acrylate with dopamine counterions. The ionic hydrogel membrane is shown to be a promising material for controlled diffusive delivery of dopamine. The ionic nature of the membrane accelerates uptake of cationic species compared to a nonionic membrane of otherwise similar composition. It is demonstrated that the increased uptake of cations can be exploited to confer an accelerated transport of cationic species between reservoirs as is desired in retrodialysis applications. This effect is shown to enable nearly 10-fold increases in drug delivery rates from low concentration solutions. The processability of the membrane is found to allow for integration with microfabricated devices which will in turn accelerate adaptation into both existing and emerging device modalities. It is anticipated that a similar materials design approach may be broadly applied to a variety of cationic and anionic compounds for drug delivery applications ranging from neurological disorders to cancer.

It is shown that recent results from Sudbury Neutrino Observatory and SuperKamiokande combined with a best global fit value of $δm^2= 5\times 10^{-5}$ eV$^2$ and $\tan^2 θ= 0.3$ rule out solar electron density fluctuations of a few percent or more. It is argued that solar neutrino experiments may be able to rule out even smaller fluctuations in the near future.

description: During the last decades, rapid progress has been made in measurements of the rest-frame ultraviolet (UV) luminosity function (LF) for high-redshift galaxies ($z \geq 6$). The faint-end of the galaxy LF at these redshifts provides powerful constraints on different dark matter models that suppress small-scale structure formation. In this work we perform full hydrodynamical cosmological simulations of galaxy formation using an alternative DM model composed of extremely light bosonic particles ($m \sim 10^{-22}$ eV), also known as fuzzy dark matter (FDM), and examine the predictions for the galaxy stellar mass function and luminosity function at $z \geq 6$ for a range of FDM masses. We find that for FDM models with bosonic mass $m = 5\times10^{-22}$ eV, the number density of galaxies with stellar mass $\rm M_* \sim 10^7 M_{\odot}$ is suppressed by $\sim 40\%$ at z = 9, $\sim 20\%$ at z = 5, and the UV LFs within magnitude range of -16 < $M_{\rm UV}$ < -14 is suppressed by $\sim 60\%$ at $z = 9$, $\sim 20\%$ at $z = 5$ comparing to the CDM counterpart simulation. Comparing our predictions with current measurements of the faint-end LFs ($-18 \leqslant M_{\rm UV} \leqslant -14$), we find that FDM models with $m_{22} < 5\times10^{-22}$ are ruled out at $3σ$ confidence level. We expect that future LF measurements by James Webb Space Telescope (JWST), which will extend down to $M_{\rm UV} \sim -13$ for $z \lesssim 10$, with a survey volume that is comparable to the Hubble Ultra Deep Field (HUDF) would have the capability to constrain FDM models to $m\; \gtrsim 10^{-21}$ eV.

description: This paper proposes a flexible broadband linear polarization converter based on metasurface operating at microwave band. In order to achieve bandwidth extension property, long and short metallic arc wires, as well as the metallic disks placed over a ground plane, are combined into the polarizer, which can generate three neighboring resonances. Due to the combination of the first two resonances and optimized size and thickness of the unit cell, the polarization converter can have a weak incident angle dependence. Both simulated and measured results confirm that the average polarization conversion ratio is over 85% from 11.3 to 20.2 GHz within a broad incident angle from 0° to 45°. Moreover, the proposed polarization converter based on flexible substrates can be applied for conformal design. The simulation and experiment results demonstrate that our designed polarizer still keeps high polarization conversion efficiency even when it adheres on convex cylindrical surfaces. The periodic metallic structure of the designed polarizer has great potential application values in the microwave, terahertz and optic regimes.

description: Mitochondria play a key role in oncogenesis and constitute one of the most important targets for cancer treatments. Although the most effective way to deliver drugs to mitochondria is by covalently linking them to a lipophilic cation, the in vivo delivery of free drugs still constitutes a critical bottleneck. Herein, we report the design of a mitochondria-targeted metal-organic framework (MOF) that greatly increases the efficacy of a model cancer drug, reducing the required dose to less than 1% compared to the free drug and ca. 10% compared to the nontargeted MOF. The performance of the system is evaluated using a holistic approach ranging from microscopy to transcriptomics. Super-resolution microscopy of MCF-7 cells treated with the targeted MOF system reveals important mitochondrial morphology changes that are clearly associated with cell death as soon as 30 min after incubation. Whole transcriptome analysis of cells indicates widespread changes in gene expression when treated with the MOF system, specifically in biological processes that have a profound effect on cell physiology and that are related to cell death. We show how targeting MOFs toward mitochondria represents a valuable strategy for the development of new drug delivery systems.

description: Rising anthropogenic CO2 emissions and global temperatures are a technological, social, and political challenge. These necessitate deep decarbonization through carbon management strategies for sustained climate action. Cost-effective transportation of CO2 from point sources to utilization and storage sites is a significant bottleneck for at-scale carbon management. A new mechanism to achieve international cooperation on carbon management through effective CO2-source and CO2-use or sequestration matching is addressed in this paper. The mechanism is founded on utilizing the growth of global LNG trade to transport CO2 over long distances via dual-use vessels that carry CO2 on their return journey following LNG delivery. A foundational carbon capture, utilization, and storage (CCUS)-based economic model for the utilization of CO2 originating in South Korea and Japan via enhanced oil recovery (EOR) in the offshore U.S. is explored. The model sets forth the objectives, scale, costs, and implications for the international trade and commoditization of CO2, as against its current status of a waste product. Further, policy frameworks that can accelerate the international trade of CO2 via this dual-use shipping model are discussed.

description: A general method to easily build global and relative operators for any number n of elementary systems if they are defined for 2 is presented. It is based on properties of the morphisms valued in the tensor products of algebras of the kinematics and it allows also the generalization to any n of relations demon- strated for two. The coalgebra structures play a peculiar role in the explicit constructions. Three examples are presented concerning the Galilei, Poincare' and deformed Galilei algebras.

description: Research on convergence of state per capita personal income (PCPI) generally finds convergence through 1990. In recent years, the data suggest convergence stopped and it may have reversed. This study finds that the conclusion depends on the way states are grouped. Analysis of quintiles based on 1950 PCPI shows convergence until 1990 and a relatively con-stant dispersion thereafter. Quintiles based on 2012 PCPI show substantial divergence after 2000. This paper also analyzes the changes in state PCPI ranking over time. Between 1950 and 2012, eleven states experienced a double-digit increase in rank while ten states had a dou-ble-digit decline in rank. A regression model using both variable and fixed factors that affect PCPI indicates that state population growth had a negative and significant effect on state PCPI rank and higher rates of four-year college graduates had a positive and significant effect. Fi-nally, location in the Southeast, Rocky Mountain, and Far West regions had a negative and significant effect on state PCPI ranking.

description: This empirical study investigates the impact on net state in-migration over the 2000-2003 period of a variety of economic and non-economic factors and thereby serves as a ro-bustness test of a study by Cebula and Alexander published in 2006. The estimates indicate that the net state in-migration rate was an increasing function of median family income or expected median family income and a decreasing function of the average cost of living. In addition, net state in-migration was an increasing function of warmer temperatures and a de-creasing function of the presence of hazardous waste sites. Finally, net state in-migration was an increasing function of fiscal surplus and a decreasing function of the presence of state indi-vidual income taxation. The results are generally supportive of those in Cebula and Alexan-der (2006).

description: We apply on-shell methods to the bottom-up construction of electroweak amplitudes, allowing for both renormalizable and non-renormalizable interactions. We use the little-group covariant massive-spinor formalism, and flesh out some of its details along the way. Thanks to the compact form of the resulting amplitudes, many of their properties, and in particular the constraints of perturbative unitarity, are easily seen in this formalism. Our approach is purely bottom-up, assuming just the standard-model electroweak spectrum as well as the conservation of electric charge and fermion number. The most general massive three-point amplitudes consistent with these symmetries are derived and studied in detail, as the primary building blocks for the construction of scattering amplitudes. We employ a simple argument, based on tree-level unitarity of four-point amplitudes, to identify the three-point amplitudes that are non-renormalizable at tree level. This bottom-up analysis remarkably reproduces many low-energy relations implied by electroweak symmetry through the standard-model Higgs mechanism and beyond it. We then discuss four-point amplitudes. The gluing of three-point amplitudes into four-point amplitudes in the massive spinor helicity formalism is clarified. As an example, we work out the $ψ^c ψZh$ amplitude, including also the non-factorizable part. The latter is an all-order expression in the effective-field-theory expansion. Further constraints on the couplings are obtained by requiring perturbative unitarity. In the $ψ^c ψZh$ example, one for instance obtains the renormalizable-level relations between vector and fermion masses and gauge and Yukawa couplings. We supplement our bottom-up derivations with a matching of three- and four-point amplitude coefficients onto the standard-model effective field theory (SMEFT) in the broken electroweak phase.

description: In this paper, we present a Hamiltonian identification method for a closed quantum system whose time trace observables are measured with colored measurement noise. The dynamics of the quantum system are described by a Liouville equation which can be converted to a coherence vector representation. Since the measurement process is disturbed by classical colored noise, we introduce an augmented system model to describe the total dynamics, where the classical colored noise is parameterized. Based on the augmented system model as well as the measurement data, we can find a realization of the quantum system with unknown parameters by employing an Eigenstate Realization Algorithm. The unknown parameters can be identified using a transfer-function-based technique. An example of a two-qubit system with colored measurement noise is demonstrated to verify the effectiveness of our method.

description: BACKGROUND:Understanding how the conservation of nature can lead to improvement in human conditions is a research area with significant growth and attention. Progress towards effective conservation requires understanding mechanisms for achieving impact within complex social-ecological systems. Causal models are useful tools for defining plausible pathways from conservation actions to impacts on nature and people. Evaluating the potential of different strategies for delivering co-benefits for nature and people will require the use and testing of clear causal models that explicitly define the logic and assumptions behind cause and effect relationships. OBJECTIVES AND METHODS:In this study, we outline criteria for credible causal models and systematically evaluated their use in a broad base of literature (~1,000 peer-reviewed and grey literature articles from a published systematic evidence map) on links between nature-based conservation actions and human well-being impacts. RESULTS:Out of 1,027 publications identified, only ~20% of articles used any type of causal models to guide their work, and only 14 total articles fulfilled all criteria for credibility. Articles rarely tested the validity of models with empirical data. IMPLICATIONS:Not using causal models risks poorly defined strategies, misunderstanding of potential mechanisms for affecting change, inefficient use of resources, and focusing on implausible efforts for achieving sustainability.
