A Wave-Corrected Assessment of the Local Midplane

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)

description: As the number of known Galactic structures mounts thanks to the Gaia Space Telescope, it is now pertinent to study methods for disentangling structures occupying the same regions of the Milky Way. Indeed, understanding the precise form of each individual structure and the interactions between structures may aid in understanding their origins and chronology. Moreover, accounting for known structures allows one to probe still finer Galactic structure. In order to demonstrate, we have developed an odd low-pass filter (OLPF) which removes smaller, odd-parity structures like the vertical waves, and use the filtered data to examine the location of the Galaxy's mid-plane. We find that the radial wave identified by Xu et al. (2015) continues inward to at least the Sun's location, with an amplitude that decreases towards the inner, denser parts of the disk, consistent with a simple, qualitative simulation. Additionally, we employ the OLPF results to determine the solar offset, $z_{\odot}$, with smaller structures filtered out. We find that $z_{\odot} = 34.2 \pm 0.3$ pc.

description: Aqueous-based film coating suspensions are associated with reliance on alkalinising reagents and poor film formation. The impact of particle size in this process and resultant film properties remains unclear. This study offers the first direct comparison of film formation properties between aqueous micro- and nano-suspensions of the enteric polymer Eudragit S100. High-pressure homogenisation was employed to produce nano-suspensions of the enteric polymer. Formed enteric suspensions (micro- and nano-) were evaluated in terms of size, morphology, and ability to form film; with resultant films analysed in terms of; film thickness, mechanical and thermoplastic properties, water uptake, weight loss, and drug permeability in acidic medium. High-pressure homogenisation yielded particles within a submicron range (150–200 nm). Produced nano-suspensions formed significantly thinner films (p p > 0.05) in terms of water uptake (∼25% w/w), weight loss (<16% w/w) and drug permeability (<0.1%). Interestingly, nano-suspension-based films exhibited lower glass transition temperatures (Tg) (p p p

description: We discuss the conditional measurement of field amplitudes by a nonclassical photon sequence in the Jaynes-Cummings (JC) model under multiphoton operation. We do so by employing a correlator of immediate experimental relevance to reveal a distinct nonclassical evolution in the spirit of [G. T. Foster et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 85 3149 (2000)]. The correlator relies on the complementary nature of the pictures obtained from different unravelings of a JC source master equation. We demonstrate that direct photodetection entails a conditioned separation of timescales, a quantum beat and a semiclassical oscillation, produced by the coherent light-matter interaction in its strong-coupling limit. We single the quantum beat out in the analytical expression for the waiting-time distribution, pertaining to the particle nature of the scattered light, and find a negative spectrum of quadrature amplitude squeezing, characteristic of its wave nature for certain operation settings. Finally, we jointly detect the dual aspects through the wave-particle correlator, showing an asymmetric regression of fluctuations to the steady state which depends on the quadrature amplitude being measured.

description: Aim: To explore the demographics, employment characteristics, job satisfaction and career intentions of the Australian nursing and midwifery academic workforce. Background: The academic workforce is crucial in preparing the next generation of nurses and midwives. Thus, understanding current satisfaction, challenges, opportunities and intentions is important for recruitment and succession planning. Design: Cross-sectional online Australian academic nursing and midwifery survey. Method: Respondents were invited to complete an online survey via social media platforms, advertisements on professional websites and circulation via professional associations. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to analyse the data. Results: Of the 250 respondents, most were Registered Nurses (n=212), female (n=222), held tenured teaching and research positions (n=126) and were over the age of 50 (n=130). Almost half of respondents held a PhD (n=98), with 55 (43.7 %) of those without a Doctoral qualification indicating no intention in undertaking doctoral studies. Over 85 % (n=213) of respondents indicated working regular unpaid hours. Female respondents had a significantly higher mean annual teaching allocation compared with males who had higher research workload allocations (p=0.033). Job satisfaction and intention to leave academia were linked with workload and perceived value. Job satisfaction was significantly higher among teaching-only and research-only academics (p=0.005). Conclusion: The sustainability of the Australian nursing and midwifery workforce is at risk due to an ageing workforce and some academics' lack of intention in pursuing doctoral studies. Gender inequities emerged as a finding in this study. Workforce strategies are required to address gender disparities and workload imbalances that have an impact on job satisfaction.

description: Ekman and geostrophic surface currents are often associated with mesoscale eddy activity and upwelling jets, due to their effect on the variability of SST, in the Persian Gulf. Therefore, understanding the distribution of geostrophic and Ekman surface currents and how they are related to SST variability is a vital step for understanding circulation dynamics in the Persian Gulf. This study aims to quantify the importance of components of current on the distribution of SST variability over the Persian Gulf. To this end, intra-annual variability of Ekman, geostrophic and total currents, and SST have been investigated based on the daily time series of 21 years (2000–2020). As well, a correlation analysis was done on the components of current and SST, the results indicated that Ekman current has more intensity in the winter months than the summer months due to the Winter Shamal events, and the maximum value of this current component is seen in the center of the Persian Gulf in all months. In addition, the direction of the Ekman surface currents is toward the sea in the northern region of the Persian Gulf so the Ekman current gives rise to the formation of coastal upwelling currents. The maximum value of the geostrophic component is seen in the northwestern part of the Persian Gulf (near the mouths of rivers) as well as the easternmost region of the Persian Gulf (Strait of Hormuz) in all months due to the difference in surface density in these areas and geostrophic component plays an important role in the formation of the total and main current in this region. The maximum value of total current is seen in the northwestern Persian Gulf in June. A negative (positive) correlation between Ekman (geostrophic) current and SST is found over the Persian Gulf (in the northern coastal regions) and certain parts of the northern Persian Gulf (about 52.5° E–53.5°), which have the strongest relationship between the components of current and SST, implying that there is a possibility of the upwelling and mesoscale eddy creation at the same time.

description: Biconcave-discoid (empirical shape of a red blood cell) capsule finds numerous applications in the field of bio-fluid dynamics and rheology, apart from understanding the behavior of red blood cells (RBC) in blood flow. A detailed analysis is, therefore, carried out to understand the effects of the uniaxial extensional flow and electric field on the deformation of a RBC and biconcave-discoid polymeric capsule in the axisymmetric regime. The transient deformation is computed numerically using axisymmetric boundary integral method for Stokes flow considering the Skalak membrane constitutive law as the model for the area incompressible RBC/biconcave-discoid capsule membrane. A remarkable biconcave-discoid to prolate spheroid transition is observed when the elastic energy is overcome by the viscous or Maxwell electric stresses. Moreover, the significance of membrane stresses developed during the deformation and at steady state and different modes of deformation are presented. This study should be useful in designing an artificial system involving biological cells under an electric field.

description: Abstract

This study examines the influence of capital structure on shareholder wealth in the Indian automotive industry, utilizing both linear and non-linear analytical models. The research analyzes financial parameters, such as Debt-to-Equity Ratio and Total Debt Ratio, of significant corporations in the NSE Nifty 50 index, including Tata Motors, Mahindra & Mahindra, and Maruti Suzuki. The analysis indicates that specific ratios have a notable adverse impact on shareholder wealth. Moderate levels of debt may potentially improve performance, however excessive debt likely to be detrimental. A cubic prediction model is employed to accurately reflect the complex, non-linear correlation between capital structure and shareholder wealth. This model identifies a critical threshold at which the influence of debt on performance undergoes a major change. The results highlight the need of maintaining a well-balanced capital structure to maximize shareholder value and offer significant insights for strategic financial management in the automobile industry. Further investigation is advised to examine these dynamics in other industries and economic environments.

description: Submicron ZrO2 fibers with three different Sb-doping levels (5, 10 and 15 cation%) were produced with an electroblowing synthesis for removal of 99TcO4–. The Sb-doped ZrO2 fibers showed high selectivity toward 99TcO4–, which was not interfered by ClO4–, NO3– or Cl– ions and showed no selectivity toward ReO4–. The optimal pH range for the 99Tc separation was 2–6 but the Sb-doped fibers maintained very high uptake level throughout the studied pH range of 1–10. According to the uptake experiments, Sb(III) is assumed to reduce Tc(VII) to Tc(IV) that is then adsorbed by the zirconia surface.

description: Ce mémoire vise à comprendre la parentalité inuite en contexte urbain. De plus, ce mémoire a pour but d’éclairer le processus de transmission intergénérationnelle de la culture inuite par l’entremise de la parentalité. Enfin, ce projet de recherche vise à reconnaitre l’expérience d’accès des parents inuits aux services communautaires en milieu urbain, particulièrement à Ottawa-Gatineau. Ce mémoire se base sur le paradigme de recherche autochtone de Shawn Wilson de 2008 en guise de cadre théorique. La méthodologie de recherche qualitative et phénoménologique est favorisée afin de répondre aux questions de recherche posées dans le cadre de ce projet de recherche. Afin de réaliser ce mémoire, trois entretiens semi-dirigés ont été effectués auprès de parents inuits habitant la région d’Ottawa-Gatineau. Suivant les entretiens, une analyse des verbatims a permis d’identifier certains thèmes en lien avec l’expérience de parentalité chez les Inuits en milieu urbain. Plus précisément, les parents-participant.e.s ont pu définir la parentalité en soi ; préciser leurs rôles et responsabilité en tant que parent ; ainsi que faire part de leurs approches parentales. Ensuite, les parents-participant.e.s ont soulevé plusieurs histoires quant à leurs expériences de transmission intergénérationnelle ainsi que leurs efforts de préservation de la culture inuite. Enfin, ces parents-participant.e.s ont également discuté de leur expérience d’accès aux services communautaires en milieu urbain ; soit au niveau de l’expérience d’accueil, de sécurité culturelle et des barrières à l’accès. Ce mémoire démontre ainsi que le domaine de la parentalité chez les Inuits en milieu urbain nécessite plus de soutien au niveau des services communautaires afin de permettre aux parents et aux familles inuits de se sentir soutenus et en sécurité dans leur pratique parentale et culturelle.

description: One of the most interesting astronomical objects is the Galactic Center. We concentrate our discussion on a theoretical analysis of observational data of bright stars in the IR-band obtained with large telescopes. We also discuss the importance of VLBI observations of bright structures which could characterize the shadow at the Galactic Center. There are attempts to describe the Galactic Center with alternative theories of gravity and in this case one can constrain parameters of such theories with observational data for the Galactic Center. In particular, theories of massive gravity are intensively developing and theorists have overcome pathologies presented in initial versions of these theories. In theories of massive gravity, a graviton is massive in contrast with GR where a graviton is massless. Now these theories are considered as an alternative to GR. For example, the LIGO-Virgo collaboration obtained the graviton mass constraint of about $1.2 \times 10^{-22}$ eV in their first publication about the discovery of the first gravitational wave detection event that resulted of the merger of two massive black holes. Surprisingly, one could obtain a consistent and comparable constraint of graviton mass at a level around $m_{g} < 2.9 \times 10^{-21}$ eV from analysis of observational data on the trajectory of the star S2 near the Galactic Center. Therefore, observations of bright stars with existing and forthcoming telescopes such as the European Extremely Large Telescope (E-ELT) and the Thirty Meter Telescope (TMT) are extremely useful for investigating the structure of the Galactic Center in the framework of GR, but these observations also give a tool to confirm, rule out or constrain alternative theories of gravity.

description: Forward osmosis (FO) was investigated for treating an acid gold-mining effluent. Draw solution reconcentration by reverse osmosis (RO) was simulated and the FO-RO system economically evaluated. FO presented a rejection of 92.2% for total As and >98.5% for all other ions investigated. Concentration polarization caused a severe reduction in JFO. RO could operate as an additional barrier, with rejection >99.9%. FO-RO presented an estimated capital expenditure of 2,292,444 USD. It was found that Js was more critical in reducing permeate costs than JFO. Nevertheless, the FO-RO system could generate a high-quality effluent, indicating an opportunity to water reuse.

description: The evolution of dwarf galaxies is dramatically affected by gaseous and dusty outflows, which can easily deprive their interstellar medium of the material needed for the formation of new stars, simultaneously enriching their surrounding circumgalactic medium (CGM). In this letter, we present the first evidence of extended [CII] 158 $μ$m line and dust continuum emission in local dwarf galaxies hosting star-formation-driven outflows. By stacking the [CII], far-infrared, and near-UV (NUV) emission obtained from Herschel and GALEX data, we derived the average radial profiles, and compared the spatial extension of gas, dust, and stellar activity in dwarf galaxies. We find that [CII] and dust emissions are comparable to each other, and more extended than the NUV continuum. The [CII] size is in agreement with that measured for $z>4$ star-forming galaxies, suggesting that similar mechanisms could be at the origin of the observed atomic carbon reservoir around local and high-$z$ sources. The cold dust follows the [CII] emission, going beyond the stellar continuum as opposed to what is typically observed in the early Universe where measurements can be affected by the poor sensitivity and faintness of dust emission in the CGM of high-$z$ galaxies. We attribute the extended [CII] and dust continuum emission to the presence of galactic outflows. As local dwarf galaxies are considered analogs of primordial sources, we expect that comparable feedback processes can be at the origin of the observed [CII] halos at $z>4$, dominating over other possible formation mechanisms.

description: Because Majorana zero modes store quantum information non-locally, they are protected from noise, and have been proposed as a building block for a quantum computer. We show how to use the same protection from noise to implement universal fermionic quantum computation. Our architecture requires only two Majoranas to encode a fermionic quantum degree of freedom, compared to alternative implementations which require a minimum of four Majoranas for a spin quantum degree of freedom. The fermionic degrees of freedom support both unitary coupled cluster variational quantum eigensolver and quantum phase estimation algorithms, proposed for quantum chemistry simulations. Because we avoid the Jordan-Wigner transformation, our scheme has a lower overhead for implementing both of these algorithms, and the simulation of Trotterized Hubbard Hamiltonian in $\mathcal{O}(1)$ time per unitary step. We finally demonstrate magic state distillation in our fermionic architecture, giving a universal set of topologically protected fermionic quantum gates.

Processing Bodies Restrict the Specification of Human Primordial Germ Cells
Creators: name: Li, Zhenfu
Publisher: name: Zenodo

description: Precursor cells gradually become restricted in their fates during development by the combined functions of cell fate “specifiers” and “restrictors”, the balancing of which determines the correct cell numbers for specific lineages. However, little is known about the regulators restricting the specification of primordial germ cells (PGCs), the precursors of germline for perpetuating genetic and epigenetic information from parents to offspring. We identified the processing body (P-body) component 4E-T (also called EIF4ENIF1) as a critical restrictor that suppresses the specification of PGC-like cells from human embryonic stem cells (hESCs). The phase separation nature of 4E-T and P-bodies is important for stabilizing the mRNAs of OTX2, which restricts the entry of germline as a transcriptional regulator. Mechanistically, 4E-T proteins within P-bodies sequester the m6A reader IGF2BP1, which binds to the m6A-modified OTX2 mRNAs together with YBX1 for transporting to ribosomes for active translation. In summary, we reveal the novel function of membraneless organelle P-bodies as regulatory hubs for sorting m6A-modified mRNAs for translation, which in turn is involved in the regulation of cell fate during development.

description: We have estimated fundamental parameters for a sample of co-moving stars observed by $Gaia$ and identified by Oh et al. (2017). We matched the $Gaia$ observations to the 2MASS and WISE catalogs and fit MIST isochrones to the data, deriving estimates of the mass, radius, [Fe/H], age, distance and extinction to 9,754 stars in the original sample of 10,606 stars. We verify these estimates by comparing our new results to previous analyses of nearby stars, examining fiducial cluster properties, and estimating the power-law slope of the local present-day mass function. A comparison to previous studies suggests that our mass estimates are robust, while metallicity and age estimates are increasingly uncertain. We use our calculated masses to examine the properties of binaries in the sample, and show that separation of the pairs dominates the observed binding energies and expected lifetimes.

description: Alzheimer’s disease is the most common neurodegenerative disorder and being a social burden Alzheimer’s has become an economic liability on developing countries. With limited understanding regarding the cause of disease, it is commonly identified by extracellular deposit of amyloid β (Aβ) peptides as senile plaques. Pyroglutamated Aβ is identified from the brain of AD patients and constituted the majority of total Aβ present. The formation of Pyroglutamated Aβ could be hindered by the use of Glutaminyl cyclase inhibitors and could efficiently improve the symptoms of Alzheimer’s. The literature revealed the competence of quantitative structure activity/property relationship studies in drug discovery. The present work explores the efficiency of Monte Carlo based QSAR modelling studies on a dataset of 125 Glutaminyl cyclase inhibitors with pKi taken as the endpoint for QSAR analysis. The dataset is divided into training, subtraining, calibration and validation sets resulting in the generation of five random splits. The validation is performed in accordance with the Organization of Economic Corporation and Development principles. The values of R2, Q2, index of ideality of correlation, concordance correlation coefficient, av. rm2 and delta rm2 of calibration set of the best split are found to be 0.9012, 0.8775, 0.9479, 0.9435, 0.8347 and 0.0847, respectively. The structural features responsible for increasing the inhibitory activity are identified. These structural features are added to a base compound from the dataset to design six novel molecules. These new molecules possess improved inhibitory activity as compare to the base compound. The results are further supported by docking studies. Communicated by Vsevolod Makeev

description: Submicron ZrO2 fibers with three different Sb-doping levels (5, 10 and 15 cation%) were produced with an electroblowing synthesis for removal of 99TcO4 –. The Sb-doped ZrO2 fibers showed high selectivity toward 99TcO4 –, which was not interfered by ClO4 –, NO3 – or Cl– ions and showed no selectivity toward ReO4 –. The optimal pH range for the 99Tc separation was 2–6 but the Sb-doped fibers maintained very high uptake level throughout the studied pH range of 1–10. According to the uptake experiments, Sb(III) is assumed to reduce Tc(VII) to Tc(IV) that is then adsorbed by the zirconia surface.

description: We demonstrate how machine-learning based interatomic potentials can be used to model guest atoms in host structures. Specifically, we generate Gaussian approximation potential (GAP) models for the interaction of lithium atoms with graphene, graphite, and disordered carbon nanostructures, based on reference density-functional theory (DFT) data. Rather than treating the full Li--C system, we demonstrate how the energy and force differences arising from Li intercalation can be modeled and then added to a (prexisting and unmodified) GAP model of pure elemental carbon. Furthermore, we show the benefit of using an explicit pair potential fit to capture "effective" Li--Li interactions, to improve the performance of the GAP model. This provides proof-of-concept for modeling guest atoms in host frameworks with machine-learning based potentials, and in the longer run is promising for carrying out detailed atomistic studies of battery materials.

description: The dynamics of dislocations is reported to exhibit glassy properties. We study numerically various versions of 2d edge dislocation systems in the absence of externally applied stress. Two types of glassy behavior are identified: (i) dislocations gliding along randomly placed, but fixed, axes exhibit relaxation to their spatially disordered stable state; (ii) if both climb and annihilation is allowed, irregular cellular structures can form on a growing length scale before all dislocations annihilate. In all cases both the correlation function and the diffusion coefficient are found to exhibit aging. Relaxation in case (i) is a slow power law. In the transient process of (ii) the dynamical exponent z is about 6, which compares favorably to experiments on diblock co-polymers.
