Observing the Inner Regions of Protoplanetary Disks with JWST
Creators: name: Chen, Christine
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: Multi-wavelength observations have painted a detailed picture of the inner regions of protoplanetary disks, characterizing the structure and properties of dust from the sublimation radius to the terrestrial planet zone and the kinematics of gas either accreting onto the star or outflowing from the disk. The excellent sensitivity and angular resolution of the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) at near- to mid-infrared wavelengths are poised to revolutionize our understanding of the inner regions of protoplanetary disks. Specifically, JWST will enable detailed characterization of faint and young protoplanetary disks and demographic studies of more distant objects, including disks in the metal-poor Large Magellanic Cloud. In addition, medium resolution spectroscopy (R~3000) using the integral field units will enable mapping molecular and atomic line emission across disks. Indeed, Guaranteed Time Observer (GTO) and Early Release Science (ERS) teams have already submitted observing programs detailing their plans. I will present the JWST capabilities for observing protoplanetary disks using specific GTO and ERS programs to illustrate how observations can be planned.
Hydrodynamics of phase transition fronts and the speed of sound in the plasma

description: The growth of bubbles in cosmological first-order phase transitions involves nontrivial hydrodynamics. For that reason, the study of the propagation of phase transition fronts often requires several approximations. A frequently used approximation consists in describing the two phases as being composed only of radiation and vacuum energy (the so-called bag equation of state). We show that, in realistic models, the speed of sound in the low-temperature phase is generally smaller than that of radiation, and we study the hydrodynamics in such a situation. We find in particular that a new kind of hydrodynamical solution may be possible, which does not arise in the bag model. We obtain analytic results for the efficiency of the transfer of latent heat to bulk motions of the plasma, as a function of the speed of sound in each phase.

Grain growth-induced curvature of the inner rim of protoplanetary disks
Creators: name: Davies, Claire
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: Milliarcsecond resolution near infrared (NIR) interferometry of Herbig AeBe stars revealed a size-luminosity relation, indicating the circumstellar component arose from a dust sublimation rim, Rsub. However, evidence is mounting from e.g. NIR spectro-interferometry that optically thick material also exists interior to Rsub. Here, I present results from our comprehensive analysis of the spectral energy distribution (SED) and NIR interferometry of HD142666 using geometric and radiative transfer models. Our dataset offers the most complete uv-plane coverage obtained for a Herbig AeBe star across the NIR, featuring previously unpublished ~330m-baseline CHARA Array data, allowing us to place strong constraints on the disk viewing geometry. We find that disk models incorporating grain growth to micron-size in the inner au are required to simultaneously fit the SED and visibilities. Furthermore, models in which rim curvature arises due to the sublimation temperature's dependence on gas density better fit the data than those where curvature arises due to grain growth-induced dust settling. Contrary to prior studies, we find no direct indication of optically thick material interior to Rsub.

description: On autopsy, a patient is found to have hypertrophic cardiomyopathy. The patient’s family pursues genetic testing that shows a “likely pathogenic” variant for the condition on the basis of a study in an original research publication. Given the dominant inheritance of the condition and the risk of sudden cardiac death, other family members are tested for the genetic variant to determine their risk. Several family members test negative and are told that they are not at risk for hypertrophic cardiomyopathy and sudden cardiac death, and those who test positive are told that they need to be regularly monitored for cardiomyopathy on echocardiography. Five years later, during a routine clinic visit of one of the genotype-positive family members, the cardiologist queries a database for current knowledge on the genetic variant and discovers that the variant is now interpreted as “likely benign” by another laboratory that uses more recently derived population-frequency data. A newly available testing panel for additional genes that are implicated in hypertrophic cardiomyopathy is initiated on an affected family member, and a different variant is found that is determined to be pathogenic. Family members are retested, and one member who previously tested negative is now found to be positive for this new variant. An immediate clinical workup detects evidence of cardiomyopathy, and an intracardiac defibrillator is implanted to reduce the risk of sudden cardiac death.
Heterotic $α$'-corrections in Double Field Theory

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We extend the generalized flux formulation of Double Field Theory to include all the first order bosonic contributions to the $α'$ expansion of the heterotic string low energy effective theory. The generalized tangent space and duality group are enhanced by $α'$ corrections, and the gauge symmetries are generated by the usual (gauged) generalized Lie derivative in the extended space. The generalized frame receives derivative corrections through the spin connection with torsion, which is incorporated as a new degree of freedom in the extended bein. We compute the generalized fluxes and find the Riemann curvature tensor with torsion as one of their components. All the four-derivative terms of the action, Bianchi identities and equations of motion are reproduced. Using this formalism, we obtain the first order $α'$ corrections to the heterotic Buscher rules. The relation of our results to alternative formulations in the literature is discussed and future research directions are outlined.

What can jets and outflows tell us about the central astronomical units ?
Creators: name: Dougados, Catherine
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: One of the crucial open question in star formation is to understand the link between the accretion of matter onto the young star and the launching of large scale jets and outflows. In particular, the role played by the jets and outflows in the extraction of mass and angular momentum from the protoplanetary disk are still critical open issues. I will review in this talk recent observational constraints derived from ALMA observations of inner molecular outflows associated with two young sources at different evolutionary stages. Both outflows are shown to originate within 20 au of the central source. We report clear detection of rotation signatures in the same sense as the underlying accretion disk. Properties of these outflows are shown to compare weill with predictions from steady MHD disk winds. however, an origin in a turbulent mixing layer associated with bow-shock wings cannot be fully excluded at this stage. Implications for the inner disk physics and evolution will be discussed.
The mystery of RW Aur
Creators: name: Facchini, Stefano
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: RW Aur is a binary system that has recently (~500 years ago) undergone a star disk encounter. The primary star has drawn attention because of its deep (Delta V ~ 2 mag) dimming events started in 2011. Similar to UX Ori objects, RW Aur is a unique system in that it has been monitored photometrically and spectroscopically before, during and after the dimming events. The amount of data available makes the system an excellent case to unveil the origin of its variability, and draw conclusions that can be generalised to a larger sample. In this talk I will give an overview of the observational evidence gained on the object through the years, ranging from mm to X-rays wavelengths. Finally, I will list the scenarios that have been proposed to explain the variability, in particular a dust-laden wind, an inner disk warp, and a severe puffing up of the inner disk.

description: Aim In Ireland there is a significant, and increasing, shortage of general practitioners. By 2025, this shortfall could be as high as 1,380, from a current workforce of 3,923. We aimed to determine the proportions of EU medical graduates from each of the six Irish medical schools who applied to the national GP Training Program for 2017-21 inclusive. Methods The Spearman rank correlation was used to examine the correlations between the proportions of graduate entrants, the number of weeks spent directly on GP placement teaching at each medical school and the proportions of applicants, to GP training, from each medical school. Results Between 2017-2021 inclusive, the average annual percentage of EU graduates applying to the national GP Training Program (n=1,302) ranged from 25-55% for each of the six Irish medical schools - a 2.2 fold difference. There was a strong correlation between the average annual percentage of EU graduates applying to the ICGP Training Program with the proportions of graduate entrants, but this did not reach statistical significance, (r=0.81; p=0.20) and no association with the number of GP placement weeks (r=0.2; p>0.50). Conclusion We found a marked difference in the proportions of EU graduates, from the six medical schools, opting for a career in general practice. Further work is required to inform how best medical schools can support the generation of tomorrows general practitioners.

title: Vertrauen in (Laien-)DolmetscherInnen
Creators: name: Tomczak, Olivia Julia
Year: 2022

description: Das Thema Vertrauen wurde im Rahmen der Translationswissenschaft im Laufe der letzten Jahre vermehrt thematisiert. Es stellt einen relevanten Aspekt dar, der Einfluss auf gedolmetschte Settings haben kann. Vertrauen erweist sich vor allem dann als Problem, wenn die miteinander agierenden Parteien einander nicht kennen, sich allerdings auf ihr Gegenüber verlassen müssen, um Gespräche erfolgreich führen zu können. Das Ziel dieser Masterarbeit ist es, herauszufinden, inwiefern polnische BürgerInnen, die auf DolmetscherInnen angewiesen sind, Vertrauen zu diesen aufbauen, wenn sie diese vorwiegend über Onlineforen beauftragen. Hierbei kann es sich sowohl um professionell ausgebildete DolmetscherInnen als auch LaiInnen handeln. Das Korpus dieser Arbeit bilden acht qualitative Leitfadeninterviews in polnischer Sprache, die nach Mayring (2002) transkribiert und analysiert werden. Die Ergebnisse der empirischen Untersuchung zeigen, welche Kriterien bei der DolmetscherInnensuche im Internet von der befragten Gruppe, die Teil der polnischen Community in Österreichs ist, als relevant erachtet werden und welche Rolle Vertrauen hierbei einnimmt.
description: Over the last few years, the topic of trust has been addressed increasingly in translation studies. Issues of trust have a considerable impact on interpreted communication. Trust becomes an issue especially when the interacting parties do not know each other and must rely on an interpreter to communicate successfully. The aim of this master’s thesis is to find out in which ways member of the Polish community in Austria, who are dependent on interpreters, can build trust in their interpreters, if these are being hired through social media groups. The corpus of this master’s thesis consists of eight semi-structured interviews conducted in Polish, that were transcribed and analysed using the approach to qualitative content analysis outlined by Mayring (2002). The results of the empirical study show which criteria for hiring interpreters through social media groups are important to the interviewees, which factors influence whether they trust in their interpreters and how trust is built in such situations.

description: We investigate synchronization in networks of Kuramoto oscillators with inertia. More specifically, we introduce a rewiring algorithm consisting basically in a {\em hill climb} scheme in which the edges of the network are swapped in order to enhance its synchronization capacity. We show that the the synchrony-optimized networks generated by our algorithm have some interesting topological and dynamical properties. In particular, they typically exhibit an anticipation of the synchronization onset and are more robust against certain types of perturbations. We consider synthetic random networks and also a network with a topology based in an approximated model of the (high voltage) power grid of Spain, since networks of Kuramoto oscillators with inertia have been used recently as simplified models for power grids, for which synchronization is obviously a crucial issue. Despite the extreme simplifications adopted in these models, our results, among others recently obtained in the literature, may provide interesting principles to guide the future growth and development of real-world grids, specially in the case of a change of the current paradigm of centralized towards distributed generation power grids.

UV Characterization of Inner Disks: from Hubble to LUVOIR
Creators: name: France, Kevin
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: Ultraviolet spectroscopy is a unique tool for observing molecular gas in the inner disk as the strongest electronic band systems of H2 and CO reside in the 100 – 170 nm bandpass. In particular, fluorescent H2 spectra are sensitive to trace amounts of gas, making them an extremely useful probe of remnant gas at r < 10 AU during the dissipation of the primordial disk. Similarly, absorption line spectroscopy through high-inclination disks is the only direct observational technique to characterize co-spatial populations of key molecules (CO, H2O, OH, etc.) with H2. Finally, far- and near-UV (100 – 400nm) observations offer the most direct empirical technique for identifying and quantifying the mass-accretion rate onto young stars. I will present a brief overview of the state-of-the-field in UV observational studies of protoplanetary environments and present a prospectus for future observations with international space observatories of the next two decades. I will focus on the exciting observational possibilities offered by UV spectroscopy with the LUVOIR Surveyor, and conclude by describing the status of the UV instruments being designed for the design reference mission.

description: Primordial black holes (PBHs) with mass $10^{16}-10^{17}$ g almost escape constraints from observations so could essentially contribute to dark matter density. Hawking evaporation of such PBHs produces with a steady rate $γ$- and $e^{\pm}$-radiations in MeV energy range, which can be absorbed by ordinary matter. Simplified estimates show that a small fraction of evaporated energy had to be absorbed by baryonic matter what can turn out to be enough to heat the matter so it is fully ionized at the redshift $z\sim 5... 10$. The result is found to be close to a borderline case where the effect appears, what makes it sensitive to the approximation used. In our approximation, degree of gas ionization reaches 50-100% by $z\sim 5$ for PBH mass $(3...7)\times 10^{16}$ g with their abundance corresponding to the upper limit.

Search for invisible particles produced in association with single-top-quarks in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 8 TeV with the ATLAS detector

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)

description: A search for the production of single-top-quarks in association with missing energy is performed in proton--proton collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of $\sqrt{s}$ = 8 TeV with the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider using data collected in 2012, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 20.3 fb$^{-1}$. In this search, the $W$ boson from the top quark is required to decay into an electron or a muon and a neutrino. No deviation from the Standard Model prediction is observed, and upper limits are set on the production cross-section for resonant and non-resonant production of an invisible exotic state in association with a right-handed top quark. In the case of resonant production, for a spin-$0$ resonance with a mass of 500 GeV, an effective coupling strength above 0.15 is excluded at 95% confidence level for the top quark and an invisible spin-$1/2$ state with mass between 0 GeV and 100 GeV. In the case of non-resonant production, an effective coupling strength above 0.2 is excluded at 95% confidence level for the top quark and an invisible spin-$1$ state with mass between 0 GeV and 657 GeV.

Eye to the telescope: observing the inner 1 AU of protoplanetary disks
Creators: name: McClure, Melissa
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: Observations of the inner 1 AU of protoplanetary disks illuminate many important physical processes during star and planet formation. Mid-infrared data probes warm gas and dust within the terrestrial planet forming region, providing constraints on the disk chemistry in a region critical to the formation of life. Near-infrared data can be attributed to the sublimation of dust in the inner disk "rim", which may serve as a brake on early migrating hot Jupiters, as well as the gas inside the rim. Visible and ultraviolet observations trace hot, dense gas that is accreting along the magnetic field lines onto the star, shifting the central radiation field to higher energies. The physical structures probed by these three wavelength regimes change dramatically as the star evolves, acquiring mass through both steady and episodic accretion and eventually cutting off its access to the outer disk mass reservoir through gap formation due to disk dissipation or planet formation. I will review the inner disk properties inferred from previous and current spectroscopic and interferometric campaigns and discuss the implications for further investigation with upcoming observing facilities.

description: Lebanon currently faces one of the worst economic crises of this century. The political deadlock, the economic crisis and the COVID-19 pandemic have further intensified the country’s existing economic fragility. Based on preliminary estimates, it is expected that the total cultivated area (mainly temporary crops and crops under greenhouses) will decrease during the 2021–2022 agricultural season due to the expected further increase in prices of inputs and soaring fuel prices. Overall, farmers will tend to shift to low-cost and less water demanding crops to reduce their overall production costs. Farmgate prices for agricultural products are also on the rise with the increase in production costs due to further depreciation of the Lebanese Pound. Despite the increase in export costs, exports of fresh fruits and vegetables are projected to increase for a variety of products and countries. This study aims to identify Lebanon’s main economic and social challenges related to the agrifood sector and to recommend evidence-based strategies and priority areas for public investment to cope with the impacts of the financial crisis, the COVID-19 pandemic and the PoB explosion. It aims to update and complement the June 2021 ASR. It should be noted that this study was prepared during the period from September 2021 to February 2022 and does not cover latest developments, such as the impact of the Ukraine war on the agricultural and food security sectors in Lebanon.

How planets move in the inner disc
Creators: name: McNally, Colin
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: The inner region of the dead zone in a protoplanetary disc is likely predominantly lacking in viscosity-inducing turbulence. In addition to a disc wind driving accretion through upper layers, models suggest the midplane can be threaded by a Hall-effect generated large-scale horizontal magnetic field. I will describe the novel torques acting on low-mass (sub-earth) planets and cores elucidated in McNally et al. 2017 and 2018 which apply in this region of the disc. Dynamical corotation torque effects lead to new flow-locked and runaway migration regimes for these planets. Migration behaviour can also bifurcate sharply as a function of the planet mass/disc surface density. I will also describe ongoing work on the behaviour of super-earth planets in this regime, which are able to significantly alter the disc surface density profile in the thin inner disc and generate Rossby-wave vortices.

description: We give improved estimates for the non-perturbative parameters appearing in the heavy quark expansion for inclusive decays. While the parameters appearing in low orders of this expansion can be extracted from data, the number of parameters in higher orders proliferates strongly, making a determination of these parameters from data impossible. Thus, one has to rely on theoretical estimates which may be obtained from an insertion of intermediate states. In this paper we refine this method and attempt to estimate the uncertainties of this approach.

The imprint of X-ray photoevaporation on the orbital distribution of giant planets
Creators: name: Monsch, Kristina
Publisher: name: Zenodo

description: Recent exoplanet surveys have highlighted the existence of an impressive diversity of planetary systems, raising the question of how systems similar to our own can form and develop. The key to explaining the diversity of planetary systems is in the understanding of the statistical trends that are emerging from the recent wealth of exoplanet data. One of these is the non-uniform distribution of the semi-major axes of gas giants. Giant planets are found to preferentially clump up at orbital radii of ~1-2 au and finding what determines this peak is of strong interest. It has recently been suggested that this distribution may be established during the time of planetary migration in the protoplanetary disc, being halted by X-ray driven photoevaporation (Ercolano & Rosotti, 2015). We have searched for signatures of this process by correlating the X-ray luminosity of host stars with the semi-major axis distribution of their giant planets. Our statistical analysis of the observational data confirms a prominent feature that is also predicted by simulations, further strengthening the conclusion that X-ray photoevaporation may be shaping the architecture of planetary systems.

In the weather specific models, the spatial surface is additionally allowed to vary with one discretized weather characteristic (rain, temperature or wind).
Formation of close-in super-Earths from embryos with suppressed type I migration
Creators: name: Ogihara, Masahiro
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2018

description: Formation models of close-in super-Earths can be divided into two groups; namely, in-situ formation models and migration models. Planets with masses larger than Mars mass undergo rapid inward migration (type I migration) in a standard protoplanetary disk. Therefore, migration models appear to be plausible. On the other hand, it has been proposed that type I migration can be suppressed in an evolving protoplanetary disk due to disk winds. We investigate orbital evolution of planetary embryos in a disk that viscously evolves under the effects of disk winds. The aim is to examine whether observed distributions of close-in super-Earths can be reproduced by simulations. We perform N-body simulations of super-Earth formation and find that the type I migration is significantly suppressed in a disk with flat surface density profile. After planetary embryos undergo slow inward migration, they are captured in a chain of resonant planets. The resonant chain undergoes late orbital instability during the gas depletion, leading to a non-resonant configuration. We also find that observed distributions of close-in super-Earths (e.g., period ratio) can be reproduced by results of our simulations.

description: N9741 is a clinical trial in patients with metastatic colorectal cancer that was originally written in 1997 and completed patient accrual in 2004. One thousand seven hundred thirty-one patients were enrolled in the study. During the conduct of the trial, N9741 was repeatedly modified to adapt to toxicity findings, to add evaluation of oxaliplatin to what was originally a trial examining various schedules of irinotecan-based therapy, and to ask evolving questions. The trial led to a new U.S. Food and Drug Administration indication for 5-fluorouracil, leucovorin, and oxaliplatin as indicated for the treatment of previously untreated patients with metastatic colorectal cancer and helped to change the standard of care for the disease in the U.S. and worldwide. The data from the trial have been used to study multiple regimens, pharmacogenetics, and quality of life issues, to correlate plasma protein levels with outcomes, to inform trial methodology, and to perform economic analyses. To date nearly 30 papers and an even larger number of abstracts have been based upon data arising from the study. The history of the trial and the major findings are summarized in this review.

description: Body mass index (BMI) is a widely used surrogate tool to screen for obesity/adiposity, but it cannot differentiate between lean and fat mass. Thus, alternative tools to detect excess adiposity should be identified. This study aimed to compare the performance of BMI, waist circumference (WC) and waist-to-height ratio (WtHR) in predicting Malaysians with excess body fat defined by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA). A total of 399 men and women aged ≥40 years were recruited from Klang Valley, Malaysia. The body composition of the subjects, including body fat percentage, was measured by DXA. The weight, height, WC and WHtR of the subjects were also determined. BMI [sensitivity = 55.7%, specificity = 86.1%, area under curve (AUC) = 0.709] and WC (sensitivity = 62.7%, specificity = 90.3%, AUC = 0.765) performed moderately in predicting excess adiposity. Their performance and sensitivity improved with lower cut-off values. The performance of WHtR (sensitivity = 96.6%, specificity = 36.1, AUC = 0.664) was optimal at the standard cut-off value and no modification was required. The performance of WC in identifying excess adiposity was greater than BMI and WHtR based on AUC values. Modification of cut-off values for BMI and WC could improve their performance and should be considered by healthcare providers in screening individuals with excess adiposity.
Understanding the formation and distribution of cm-sized dust grains in DG Tau A

Publisher: name: Zenodo

description: Planet Earth Building-Blocks - a Legacy eMERLIN Survey is mapping 'pebbles' (cm-sized dust grains) at 5 cm wavelengths for protostars at a range of evolutionary stages and masses. The survey focuses on nearby star-forming regions to systematically study discs with a high potential for planet formation. The 40 mas resolution (5-9 AU) allows us to separate disc zones comparable to where terrestrial and gas giant planets form in our Solar System. The ability to image grain growth within a few AU of young stars is a unique eMERLIN capability, allowing the investigation of how planetary cores are made and the search for protoplanet candidates. We present observations of DG Tau A (Class I-II, low-mass) at 4-6 cm, where the disc is resolved and easily distinguished from jet emission. The extended source flux is significantly higher than predicted, suggesting a pile-up of dust grains with sizes ~1 cm. We compare the disc environments of DG Tau A and TW Hya, focussing on exploring the pebble-sized grain surface densities between 0.1 to ~16 AU from the star. We discuss the benefits of follow-up observations in near-IR wavelengths necessary to understand planet formation in these systems.
