description: We present a multi-wavelength study of three new $z\sim5.6$ quasi-stellar objects (QSOs) identified from dedicated spectroscopic observations. The three sources were selected as high-$z$ candidates based on their radio and optical/near-infrared properties as reported in the Rapid ASKAP Continuum Survey (RACS), the Dark Energy Survey (DES), and the Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System (Pan-STARRS) survey. These are among the most radio-bright QSOs currently known at $z>5.5$, relative to their optical luminosity, having $\rm R=S_{\rm 5GHz}/S_{\rm 4400A}>100$. In this work, we present their identification, and we also discuss their multi-wavelength properties (from the radio to the X-ray band) based on detections in public surveys as well as in dedicated radio and X-ray observations. The three sources present a wide range of properties in terms of relative intensity and spectral shape, highlighting the importance of multi-wavelength observations in accurately characterising these high-$z$ objects. In particular, from our analysis we found one source at $z=5.61$ that presents clear blazar properties (strong radio and X-ray emission), making it one of the most distant currently known in this class. Moreover, from the fit of the optical/near-infrared photometric measurements with an accretion disc model as well as the analysis of the CIV broad emission line in one case, we were able to estimate the mass and accretion rate of the central black holes in these systems, finding $\rm M_{\rm BH}\sim1-10\times10^9$~M$_\odot$ accreting at a rate $λ_{\rm Edd}\sim0.1-0.4$. The multi-wavelength characterisation of radio QSOs at $z>5.5$, such as the ones reported here, is essential to constraining the evolution of relativistic jets and supermassive black holes hosted in this class of objects.

Deliverable D6.5: Real-time connection of physical and virtual bench
Creators: name: Shuchen, Liu

Subjects: subject: Real-time test bench
subject: Battery

description: Purpose of this work task T6.5 is the concept work, implementation, stabilization, testing and real-life validation of an “as fast as possible”-connection between physical and virtual test bench in the cloud. Therefore, first matching and feasibletechnologies must be investigated. It will be determined which possibilities are existing to perform fast continuous data transfer between virtual and real bench. After identification of matching base technology, a respective module design andprototype implementation will follow. Subsequently to a POC connection within a selected example scenario, the final module will be implemented and tested. On some use-cases hard real-time requirements will be necessary. In that case itmight be necessary to download the models into the test centre IT infrastructure to overcome the shortcoming of internet communication connection bandwidth and latency (more comparable to an X-in-the-loop (XiL)-like approach). Finally, theconcepts and module’s limitations need to be carefully investigated and documented transparently.
Model development and analysis of solid oral dosage manufacturing processes involving particle size change

description: Continuous pharmaceutical manufacturing offers advantages in cost, efficiency and acceleration in process development, particularly in the time of increasing research and development, and production costs. A science-based approach to process development promoted by the Quality by design paradigm requires incorporating the effect of variability in material properties and process conditions on product properties. This has increased focus on development of detailed and complex models capturing phenomenon from several scales, which led to an increase in computational expense. The limitations are exacerbated when several such models are integrated to simulate a continuous manufacturing process. This dissertation explores several modeling methods for the development of hybrid models of particulate processes. Milling operation is used as a case study for hybrid model development that supports the Quality by design approach and also addresses computational limitations. Several unit operation models are integrated to simulate a wet granulation continuous manufacturing process leading to a computationally expensive model with several variables. This dissertation also establishes efficient methodologies to utilize the high dimensional and computationally expensive integrated process models for obtaining the space in which process needs to operate, thus supporting continuous pharmaceutical process development.

FIGURE 21A–C
Comments
Petals on collected specimens differed from those in other references documenting Peronella. Specimens herein were wider and shorter relative to the more elongate petals illustrated in Liao & Clark (1995). Identification of this species was made based on the thickened rim of the test as well as the plate patterns on the oral surface adjacent to the ambulacral channels emanating from the mouth (e.g. Figs. 21B–C).
Liao & Clark (1995) report a huge specimen of this species from off the Ninepin Islands in southeast Hong Kong, measuring 16.0 X 14.9 (WxL) cm at 10 m depth. This was comparable to a specimen reported by Mortensen (1943) which measured 16.8 X 13.6 cm (no locality cited). Chao (2000) has reported this species from western Taiwan in 20- 40 m.
Color in life of this species is bright red, ranging from “old rose” to “Indian red” on the aboral surface with a pale green oral surface with bright green sutures.
Occurrence/Distribution
Hong Kong, 37 m.
Outside Hong Kong, southern China, ranging from the Gulf of Tonkin and Hainan Island to Fujian Province and Taiwan. Throughout the Indo-Pacific, west coast of India to S. China, Japan, Philippines, Indonesia & central Pacific and northern Australia. 0 to 90 m.

description: In hierarchical triple systems, the inner binary is slowly perturbed by a distant companion, giving rise to large-scale oscillations in eccentricity and inclination, known as von-Zeipel-Lidov-Kozai (ZLK) oscillations. Stable systems with a mild hierarchy, where the period ratio is not too small, require an additional corrective term, known as the Brown Hamiltonian, to adequately account for their long-term evolution. Although the Brown Hamiltonian has been used to accurately describe the highly eccentric systems on circulating orbits where the periapse completes a complete revolution, the analysis near its elliptical fixed points had been overlooked. We derive analytically the modified fixed points including the Brown Hamiltonian and analyse its librating orbits (where the periapse motion is limited in range). We compare our result to the direct three-body integrations of millions of orbits and discuss the regimes of validity. We numerically discover the regions of orbital instability, allowed and forbidden librating zones with a complex, fractal, structure. The retrograde orbits, where the mutual inclination is $ι> 90\ \rm deg$, are more stable and allowed to librate for larger areas of the parameter space. We find numerical fits for the librating-circulating boundary. Finally, we discuss the astrophysical implications for systems of satellites, stars and compact objects. In a companion paper (paper II), we apply our formalism to the orbits of irregular satellites around giant planets.

Year: 2020

description: Peptide self-assembly is a wide disciplinary study. There are 20 amino acids that provide miscellaneous combinations of peptide which based on different amino acid sequences. Different amino acid sequences peptides can self-assemble into different supramolecular nanostructures via self-assembly process. These nanostructures can be applied to many fields such as tissue engineering, drug delivery and electronic industry. There are many types of research have been focused on amphiphilic peptides mainly based on experimental studies. The goal of this study is to investigate two amphiphilic peptides: V6K2 (valine-valine-valine-valine-valine-valine-lysine-lysine), V6K3(valine-valine-valine-valine-valine-valine-lysine-lysine-lysine) and their mixture systems based on Molecular Dynamics Study. The mixture systems of these two peptides provide the in-depth scope of the physical, chemical and thermodynamic properties of the peptide system.

Pannexin-1 in silico modeling towards physiological and pathological functioning
Creators: name: Subach, Joel
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 2020

description: The transmembrane pore protein Pannexin-1 (Panx1) forms channels allowing the release of purine nucleotides and participates in processes related to purinergic signaling, including blood pressure regulation, apoptotic cell clearance, and neuropathic pain. Panx1 has also been implicated in several pathological mechanisms, including facilitating HIV entry. While several naturally occurring inhibitors of Panx1 activity have been discovered, elucidating structure-function relationships within the Panx1 oligomer and the ability to design molecules to regulate Panx1 activities has been limited due to the absence of a Panx1 crystal structure. To address this limitation, an in silico model of Panx1 was constructed, based on homologous protein channel structures, established physicochemical characteristics and binding properties of the Panx1 channel.Homologous template protein searches, transmembrane topologies and sequence alignments were subsequently used by MODELLER software to generate Panx1 A-Chain monomer subunits via a multi-template stitching approach. These A-chain subunit models and a GalaxyWeb Panx1 sequence generated A-chain subunit were subsequently used to construct four model homo-oligomers (pentamers, hexamers, heptamers, and octamers) using GalaxyWEB, all oligomeric structures were compared to established biophysical parameters of Panx1 channels. Docking experiments using Medusa Guide were performed using four small molecules and the 10Panx1 mimetic peptide known to block the Pannexin-1 channel. Docking simulation free energy results were used to assess the regional validity of the designed Panx1 model. The optimum Pannexin-1 model was a hexameric structure exhibiting compact helices and dynamic loops and tails which promoted both pore and oligomer diameters and an overall structure matching Pannexin-1 experimental data. Docking experiments overall exhibited moderate affinity free energy values for Panx1 inhibitors inferring an overall fair modeling accuracy. A high affinity free energy value of -46.38 kcal mol-1 was discovered for the mimetic 10Panx1 which partially steric blocks the Pannexin-1 pore region.2, 8, 66 EL-1/2 docking results demonstrated high (< -30 to -50 kcal mol-1) to poor (> -20 kcal mol-1) affinities. The model suggested these small molecules bound to the EL1/2 regions primarily through steric/hydrophobic and polar interactions. Overall, this model fits with established experimental results and is a reasonable tool for the initial design of compounds which modulate Pannexin-1 gating.

Comments
This specimen (29 mm X 25 mm X 24 mm; Length X Width X Height) was found on muddy bottom at 37m from eastern Hong Kong and was not commonly encountered. Liao & Clark (1995) noted that this species is very common in East China Sea but not in Guangdong Province where they were found only from the mouth of the Pearl River and in Hong Kong. The length of specimens from Guangdong Province was usually less than 30mm which is consistent with measurements of our specimens, which were 2.9 cm x 2.5 cm x 2.4 cm (L xWx H). Chao (2000) reported tests and other individuals of this species from Taiwan, 5-90 m, describing it as an “inshore deposit feeder.”

Comments
The Archasteridae is a monotypic family including the single genus Archaster which in turn, includes three species, two present in the Indian Ocean and a third, the widely occurring Archaster typicus in the tropical central Pacific. This species is present on sandy, unconsolidated bottoms where they apparently evert their stomachs to feed. Marsh & Fromont (2020) presented a brief summary of the biology of this species. Perhaps the best known aspect of Archaster typicus is their reproductive behavior which involves the, unusual in echinoderms, physical superposition of males on females, known as pseudocopulation (e.g. Run et al. 1988). An unpublished Masters thesis by Wong Tim Lung (2016) notes a population explosion of this species recorded by surveys between 2012 and 2014, which may have affected bivalve populations suggesting significant impact on community structure.
Archaster typicus is a familiar species, occurring in great abundance and occurring in shallow-water depths, leading to intensive fishing for tourist shops, holiday ornaments, and the pet trade has led to localized disappearance of this species as noted by Bos et al. (2008).
Occurrence/Distribution
Hong Kong, Sharp Island east, 3m.
Outside Hong Kong. Widely occurring throughout the tropical Pacific and adjoining regions, Bay of Bengal, northern Indian Ocean, Southern Japan, Philippines, Papua New Guinea, Malaysia, Indonesia, Northeastern Australian coast, South Pacific, New Caledonia. 0–3 m. (after Marsh & Fromont 2020).

description: (2060) Chiron is a large centaur that has been reported active on multiple occasions including during aphelion passage. Studies of Chirons coma during active periods have resulted in the detection of C(triple)N and CO outgassing. Significant work remains to be undertaken to comprehend the activation mechanisms on Chiron and the parent molecules of the gas phases detected. This work reports the study of the ices on Chirons surface and coma and seeks spectral indicators of volatiles associated with the activity. Additionally, we discuss how these detections could be related to the activation mechanism for Chiron and, potentially, other centaurs. In July 2023, the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) observed Chiron when it was active near its aphelion. We present JWST/NIRSpec spectra from 0.97 to 5.27 microns with a resolving power of 1000, and compare them with laboratory data for identification of the spectral bands. We report the first detections on Chiron of absorption bands of several volatile ices, including CO2, CO, C2H6, C3H8, and C2H2. We also confirm the presence of water ice in its amorphous state. A key discovery arising from these data is the detection of fluorescence emissions of CH4, revealing the presence of a gas coma rich in this hyper-volatile molecule, which we also identify to be in non-local thermal equilibrium (nonLTE). CO2 gas emission is also detected in the fundamental stretching band at 4.27 microns. We argue that the presence of CH4 emission is the first proof of the desorption of CH4 due to a density phase transition of amorphous water ice at low temperature in agreement with the estimated temperature of Chiron during the JWST observations (61 K). Detection of photolytic and proton irradiation products of CH4 and CO2 on the surface, in the coma ice grains, or in the ring material is also detected via a forest of absorption features from 3.5 to 5.3 microns.

Investigation of protein - protein interactions underlying alpha-synuclein aggregation in Parkinson's diseases
Creators: name: Yang, Xue
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied

description: Alpha-synuclein (αSynuclein) accumulation and aggregation is related to many neurodegenerative diseases like Alzheimer's diseases, Parkinson’s diseases, and dementia with Lewy bodies. However, the mechanism of αSynuclein aggregation and the relationship between aggregation pathways and toxicity are still unclear. Beta-synuclein (βSynuclein) is a homologue protein of αSynuclein with high sequence similarity but plays a different role in neurodegenerative diseases. βSynuclein has shown anti-Parkinson capacity in mouse models. In this work, we used βSynuclein as a comparison to answer why αSynuclein fibrils are good templates for seeding aggregation and what kind of interactions promote aggregate formation or inhibition. The work in this thesis explores structure, toxicity, dynamic and seeding aggregation capacity of different αSynuclein oligomers and fibrils which provide critical information for therapeutic targets and designs.By characterizing and comparing αSynuclein, βSynuclein and α/β co-incubated fibrils, we suggest that the stability and dynamics of the fibrils play an important role in controlling the fibril seeding aggregation ability. However, both αSynuclein and βSynuclein fibrils show similar cellular toxicity which suggest that seeding monomer aggregation is not the only contribution for fibril toxicity. Using solution NMR, we show that the initial step for fibril seeding is through interactions at the first 40 residues of the N-terminus. The interactions between αSynuclein stable oligomers and monomers are primarily located at the first 12 residues which results in inhibiting fibril seeding aggregation processes through competing interactions. Coupling these facts together suggests that peptides or small molecular targets that interact with the N-terminus of αSynuclein may be a good approach to inhibit αSynuclein seeding processes and increase the dynamics of fibril packing interfaces can be novel strategies to reduce amyloid toxicity.

description: Recent discoveries in both investigating and modulating cells have enriched our understanding and knowledge about cellular behavior, signaling pathways as well as molecular mechanisms. In addition, tremendous advances in nanomaterials, especially nanomaterial-based optical probes, have enabled scientists to not only study various molecular, cellular, cell-environment interactions at the nanoscale level, but also interrogate, perturb as well as manipulate biological behaviors at different scale functionally and therapeutically. As a result, nanotechnology-based optical investigation and manipulation at the biological and neural interfaces have gained great research interests and attentions for the purpose of understanding studying physiological mechanisms, identifying pathogenic pathways, and developing enhanced treatments of devastating diseases.In the introductory chapter, the discussion is focused on recent advances of nano-optical probe-based cellular sensing and manipulations. Firstly, the nanoprobe-based optical sensing of cellular environments is elaborated, followed by detailed discussion on applications in cellular activities investigation. Finally, light-mediated nanoparticle-based cellular manipulations and behavior controls is discussed. To better investigate and further regulate the complex biological processes, near infrared (NIR) could be an ideal stimulus for modulating the spatiotemporal dynamics of signals in living cells and organisms with high resolution. Subsequently, initial work on the development of NIR-responsive lanthanide-doped nanomaterials with orthogonal emissions for dynamic photo-switching reaction control is presented. Two studies utilizing NIR-responsive nanomaterials for small molecule release monitoring and neurotransmitter imaging are stated. These works represent the sensing aspects of photo-responsive nanomaterials probing at the cancer and neural interfaces. Two proof-of-concept studies on NIR-mediated stem cell behaviors control is incorporated in the later chapters. Lastly, in the final chapter, recent works on biodegradable dendritic peptide nanoparticle platform for regenerative medicine and cancer therapeutic applications are discussed. Moreover, the translational journey and perspectives of the dendritic peptide nanoparticle system for next-generation pancreatic cancer therapy are presented.

Comments
One specimen of this species was observed showing eight arms with five arms significantly shorter and apparently in the course of regeneration. The observed specimen was blue-green in color with dark bands. This falls within the morphological range described by Liao & Clark (1995).
Coscinasterias acutispina feed upon abalone (Hayashi 1988), limpets (Iwasaki 1993) and other molluscs (Harper 1994). Observations on fissiparity and asexual reproduction can be found in Edmonson (1935) and Haramoto et al. (2007). Japanese accounts document this species as being parasitized by the ascothoracidan barnacle Dendrogaster okadai (Haramoto et al. 2007). Nakamura & Fujita (2004) documented Ammothea hilgendorfi a sea spider (pycnogonid) associated with this species.
