description: Recently, we proposed a new braneworld model [GIT] in which the collision of a brane universe and a vacuum bubble coming from the extra-dimension is utilized as a trigger of brane big-bang. In this article, mainly reviewing this model, we briefly summarize cosmological braneworld scenarios in which collision of branes plays an important role.

description: Diabetes is a complex group of metabolic disorders with genetic, immunological, and environmental etiologies. Decades of diabetes research have elucidated many genetic drivers of normal islet function and dysfunction. Furthermore, genome wide associated studies (GWAS) have discovered that most diabetes susceptibility loci fall outside of coding regions, which suggests a role for noncoding elements in the development of disease. This highlights our incomplete understanding of the islet regulome and suggests the need for detailed functional analyses of noncoding genes to precisely determine their contribution to diabetes susceptibility and disease progression. Transcriptome analyses have revealed that the eukaryotic genome is pervasively transcribed. Strikingly, only a small proportion of the transcriptome is subsequently translated into protein; the majority is made up non-protein coding RNAs (ncRNAs). The most abundant class of these ncRNAs are called long noncoding RNAs (lncRNAs), defined as transcripts longer than 200 nucleotides that lack protein-coding potential. The establishment of lncRNAs, once dismissed as genomic dark matter, as essential gene regulators in many biological processes has redefined the central role for RNA in cells. While evidence suggests a role for lncRNAs in islets and diabetes, in vivo functional characterization of islet lncRNAs is lacking.
      For my thesis project, I sought to understand the lncRNA regulatory mechanisms that promote pancreas development and function. We conducted comparative transcriptome analyses between embryonic mouse pancreas and adult mouse islets and identified several pancreatic lncRNAs that lie in close proximity to essential pancreatic transcription factors. One of the candidate lncRNAs, Pax6 Upstream Antisense RNA (Paupar), mapped near Pax6, a gene encoding an essential pancreatic regulatory protein. We demonstrate Paupar is enriched in glucagon-producing alpha cells where it promotes the alternative splicing of Pax6 to an isoform required for activation of essential alpha cell genes. Consistently, deletion of Paupar in mice resulted in dysregulation of Pax6 alpha cell target genes and corresponding alpha cell dysfunction. These findings illustrate a distinct mechanism by which lncRNAs can contribute to cell-specific regulation of broadly expressed transcription factors to coordinate critical functions within a cell.

Romano-British and medieval occupation at Pallant House Gallery, Chichester, West Sussex.
Creators: name: Godden, David
Publisher: name: Archaeology Data Service
Year: 2010

description: Sussex Archaeological Collections, 146, 75-94
description: Report on excavations in the centre of Chichester. The principal phase of the Roman occupation dated from the second half of the first century AD, with later material (mostly residual) suggesting continued occupation on or near the site. The early occupation was relatively sparse, and appeared to be away from any street frontage. Late-Saxon to early medieval pits show a renewal of activity in the tenth-twelfth centuries, probably at the rear of properties fronting a newly laid-out street. Later medieval cesspits and refuse pits occurred over the rest of the site, with indications of a gradual westwards shift in focus towards East Pallant. Associated food and artefactual remains were considered to be typical of urban medieval assemblages, with the exception of an ornate thirteenth-century ceramic roof finial. A single structure was excavated on the site; a fourteenth- to early-fifteenth-century vaulted undercroft, part of a building fronting on to North Pallant.

description: Culicoides chewaclae Glick and Mullen
(Fig. 234)
 Culicoides chewaclae Glick and Mullen, 1983: 378 (female; fig. antenna, palpus, eye separation, mandible, legs, tibial comb, spermathecae, wing; Alabama). Wirth et al. 1985: 22 (numerical characters; fig. female wing).
 Diagnosis. (Tables 14, 15) Dark Brown; wing pattern indistinct; r 2 dark; isolated pale spots straddling midportions of M 1 and M 2; distal pale spots faint in r 3, m 1, m 2; flagellomeres 9–10 normal, each larger than 8; SCo pattern 1, 3, 5, 7, (8), (9), (10), 11–13; combined length of flagellomeres 7+8 greater than 9; proboscis short, ratio 0.61; labrum without apical median projection; scutellum with 12 setae on female; fore and hind tarsomeres without apical spines; spermathecae unequal by ~1.3, sclerotized necks absent; sclerotized ring on spermathecal duct; male unknown, but genitalia should be similar to those of other Piliferus group species.
 Distribution. California, Oregon, Utah (San Juan County, new state record), Maryland, South Carolina (Swanson 2012), Alabama, Florida (Quaglia et al. 2020). Apparently an uncommon but widely distributed species across temperate North America. A single female was collected with UVLT on 15 August 2019 in the La Sal Mountains in San Juan County, Utah, at 38.41373°N 109.22369°W at 2894 m elevation.
 Adult behavior. The mandibular and lacinial teeth on the female indicate it feeds on vertebrate blood; and though its hosts are unknown, C. chewaclae is a member of the Piliferus group, generally considered ornithophilic (Wirth and Hubert 1962). Quaglia et al. (2020) report collecting C. chewaclae with UVLTs only during weeks 15–19 in Florida; whereas, collections in other states at higher latitudes and elevations have been made during weeks 17, 18, 25, 29, and 33 (Table 5).
 Remarks. Culicoides chewaclae is most similar to Culicoides Piliferus group species A and B but has smaller antennal and proboscis ratios (Table 14). See also Piliferus group species A, B, and unplaced species F remarks.

description: Pre- and post-mining wildlife habitat capability assessments were conducted for the Window Pit development on Quintette Operating Corporation's Babcock Mountain. The British Columbia government Terrestrial Ecosystem Mapping (TEM) methodology for wildlife habitat capability was modified and implemented to conduct the assessment. The spatial and attribute data for these assessments were obtained from pre-disturbance black and white photography and post-disturbance colour photography. An orthophotomosaic with contours was also used to develop the post-mining base map. The aerial photography and field data were integrated within a Geographical Information System (GIS) environment using ARCINFO software. Spatial relationships were also analyzed using the Habitat Assessment and Modeling Software (HAMS). The maps and analyses undertaken by this assessment indicated a number of areas (polygons) where important habitat was affected by the development and a number of polygons upon which to focus mitigation efforts. The use of GIS was shown to be a very cost effective method of reclamation planning. This tool will enable environmental planners to minimize the impacts of the development on the grizzly bears, mountain goats, caribou, moose and mule deer.

description: In Part 1 of this work, we have derived a dynamical system describing the approach to a finite-time singularity of the Navier-Stokes equations. We now supplement this system with an equation describing the process of vortex reconnection at the apex of a pyramid, neglecting core deformation during the reconnection process. On this basis, we compute the maximum vorticity $ω_{max}$ as a function of vortex Reynolds number $R_Γ$ in the range $2000\le R_Γ\le 3400$, and deduce a compatible behaviour $ω_{max}\sim ω_{0}\exp{\left[1 + 220 \left(\log\left[R_Γ/2000\right]\right)^{2}\right]}$ as $R_Γ\rightarrow \infty$. This may be described as a physical (although not strictly mathematical) singularity, for all $R_Γ\gtrsim 4000$.

description: Since the beginning of its reign of terror in Iraq, the Islamic State has been targeting Shias and encouraging sectarian violence between Shias and Sunnis, based on past memories of violence and the instrumentalization of the Battle of Karbala, which is an ancient conflict that has become a part of Shia identity and ethos. This thesis analyses the dynamics of Shia persecution in Iraq during the regimes of Saddam Hussein and the Islamic State, and shows that history has been present at the heart of this national conflict. It argues that addressing the historical roots of violence, which can be found in the Battle of Karbala, through the mechanisms of transitional justice might be a way of encouraging reconciliation between Iraqi Shias and Sunnis, and help guarantee durable peace and nonoccurrence of violent outbreaks in the country. This paper provides an analysis of the pertinent transitional justice theories and mechanisms, which include historical commissions and memorialization, and applies the theoretical framework to the case of Karbala by offering tentative suggestions regarding the workings of the process in Iraq, such as the creation of a shared historical narrative and the building of memorials.

description: A perturbative quantum theory of the 2-Killing vector reduction of general relativity is constructed. Although non-renormalizable in the standard sense, we show that to all orders of the loop expansion strict cut-off independence can be achieved in a space of Lagrangians differing only by a field dependent conformal factor. In particular the Noether currents and the quantum constraints can be defined as finite composite operators. The form of the field dependence in the conformal factor changes with the renormalization scale and a closed formula is obtained for the beta functional governing its flow. The flow possesses a unique fixed point at which the trace anomaly is shown to vanish. The approach to the fixed point adheres to Weinberg's ``asymptotic safety'' scenario, both in the gravitational wave/cosmological sector and in the stationary sector.

 Diagnosis. (Tables 14, 15) Wing pattern distinct; r 2 dark; isolated pale spots straddling midportions of M 1 and M 2; distal pale spot in r 3 filling most of distal half of cell; distal pale spots in m 1, m 2; flagellomeres 9–10 normal, each larger than 8; SCo pattern 1, 3, (5), (7), 11–13; eyes separated>1 ommatidium diameter; spermathecae unequal by ~1.3, with short, sclerotized necks <0.5 as long as wide; sclerotized ring on spermathecal duct. Male unknown, but genitalia likely similar to that of C. doeringae.
 Distribution. California (Mendocino, Monterey counties).
 Adult behavior and vector potential. Culicoides lophortygis has been collected from California quail (Lophortyx californicus) and while biting a human at dusk in California (Atchley and Wirth 1975). In addition, Weinmann et al. (1979) collected blood-engorged C. lophortygis from California quail-baited traps, found development of quail heartworm (Splendidofilaria californiensis) to the first-juvenile non-infective stage in several specimens, but found no other evidence C. lophortygis can transmit the parasite.
 Remarks. Based on data collected in this study, C. lophortygis and C. doeringae may be conspecific. However, no C. lophortygis were examined. See C. doeringae remarks.

In the large N planar limit, an exact solution is found at criticality. The critical exponents of the model are determined; they vary continously along the critical line. The vicinity of the latter is explored, which confirms that we have a line of c=1 conformal field theories coupled to gravity.

Case study : development of a rehabilitation plan for the abandoned Arctic Gold and Silver Mine site

description: The Arctic Gold and Silver mine is situated between Carcross and the BC-Yukon border. The mine, which included primarily underground workings, a processing plant and a tailings impoundment, operated intermittently over a period of less than 2 years in the late I960's before being abandoned. An environmental assessment conducted in 1997 revealed that tailings seepage has a low pH and high metal concentrations, and is discharging into a small lake adjacent to the impoundment. The Arctic Gold and Silver Working Group was established in 1997 with the objective of guiding the development and selection of a rehabilitation plan for the abandoned mine facilities. The Working Group comprises representatives of affected stakeholders, including the .Carcross-Tagish First Nation and various government departments. The development of a detailed rehabilitation plan commenced in 1998 with a detailed assessment of the environmental conditions at the site. A series of options for remediating the tailings were subsequently developed and each of the options underwent an evaluation to determine its probable effectiveness. Based on this evaluation, two options were "short-listed" for further consideration. The first consisted of consolidation and covering of the tailings, a well established technological approach. The second consisted of chemical amendment by heap leaching and reprocessing of the tailings, a technology that has become common in recent years although there are relatively few such cases in the North. The two short-listed options were compared on the basis of factors such as environmental benefits, estimated costs and the level of certainty associated with each of the cost estimates. The results of these comparative evaluations were submitted to the Arctic Gold and Silver Working Group who, following a review of all the options, selected the consolidation and cover option. The rehabilitation activities were implemented during summer 1999.

description: We derive a uniform approximation for semiclassical contributions of periodic orbits to the spectral density which is valid for generic period-quadrupling bifurcations in systems with a mixed phase space. These bifurcations involve three periodic orbits which coalesce at the bifurcation. In the vicinity of the bifurcation the three orbits give a collective contribution to the spectral density while the individual contributions of Gutzwiller's type would diverge at the bifurcation. The uniform approximation is obtained by mapping the action function onto the normal form corresponding to the bifurcation. The present article is a continuation of previous work in which uniform approximations for generic period-$m$-tupling bifurcations with $m \neq 4$ were derived.

We study with details the cases of vacuum, inflation, radiation and incoherent matter. We find, for the a negative Brans-Dicke parameter, a significant amplification of perturbations.

description: The recommendation methods based on network diffusion have been shown to perform well in both recommendation accuracy and diversity. Nowdays, numerous extensions have been made to further improve the performance of such methods. However, to what extent can items be predicted by diffusion-based algorithms still lack of understanding. Here, we mainly propose a method to quantify the predictability of diffusion-based algorithms. Accordingly, we conduct experiments on Movielens and Netflix data sets. The results show that the higher recommendation accuracy based on diffusion algorithms can still be achieved by optimizing the way of resource allocation on a density network. On a sparse network, the possibility of improving accuracy is relatively low due to the fact that the current accuracy of diffusion-based methods is very close its predictability. In this case, we find that the predictability can be improved significantly by multi-steps diffusion, especially for users with less historical information. In contrast to common belief, there are plausible circumstances where the higher predictability of diffusion-based methods do not correspond to those users with more historical recording. Thus, we proposed the diffusion coverage and item average degree to explain this phenomenon. In addition, we demonstrate the recommendation accuracy in real online system is overestimated by random partition used in the literature, suggesting the recommendation in real online system may be a harder task.

description: We propose a model of dynamical noncommutative quantum mechanics in which the noncommutative strengths, describing the properties of the commutation relations of the coordinate and momenta, respectively, are arbitrary energy dependent functions. The Schrödinger equation in the energy dependent noncommutative algebra is derived for a two dimensional system for an arbitrary potential. The resulting equation reduces in the small energy limit to the standard quantum mechanical one, while for large energies the effects of the noncommutativity become important. We investigate in detail three cases, in which the noncommutative strengths are determined by an independent energy scale, related to the vacuum quantum fluctuations, by the particle energy, and by a quantum operator representation, respectively. Specifically, in our study we assume an arbitrary power law energy-dependence of the noncommutative strength parameters, and of their algebra. In this case, in the quantum operator representation, the Schrödinger equation can be formulated mathematically as a fractional differential equation. For all our three models we analyze the quantum evolution of the free particle, and of the harmonic oscillator, respectively. The general solutions of the noncommutative Schrödinger equation as well as the expressions of the energy levels are explicitly obtained.

description: We demonstrate ultrashort pulse generation from a fluoride fiber laser co-doped with holmium and praseodymium. To date the majority of work focused on short pulse generation from this class of fiber laser has employed loss modulators in the cavity, both real and artificial. In this work we alternatively employ a frequency shifting element: an acousto-optic modulator (AOM) in the cavity. This results in mode-locked output of sub-5 ps pulses with 10 nJ of energy at a center wavelength of 2.86 μm, and a pulse repetition frequency of 30.1 MHz, equating to a peak power of 1.9 kW. Additional experimental investigation of the relationship between frequency shift and cavity round trip offer insight into the complex underlying dynamics. As a complementary mode-locking technique to conventional loss modulation, this method of pulse formation may greatly expand the design flexibility of pulsed mid-infrared fiber lasers.

description: Decades of research have shown long-term effects of early caregiving adversity on stress physiology and limbic brain regions, two key biological systems that are implicated in risk for internalizing disorders. Although stress physiology and limbic brain structure undergo significant maturational change during childhood and adolescence, and reciprocally influence each other, the effects of early caregiving adversity on these developmental processes is not well understood. In the current study, we used an accelerated longitudinal design to assess the development of stress physiology, amygdala, and hippocampal volume following early institutional care. Previously Institutionalized (PI; N = 93) and comparison (COMP; N = 161) youth (ages 4-20 years old) completed 1-3 waves of data collection, each spaced approximately 2 years apart, for diurnal cortisol (N = 239, providing a total of 380 diurnal datasets), structural MRI (N = 156, providing a total of 306 scans) and parent-reported internalizing symptoms (N = 133, providing a total of 227 time points). We observed a developmental shift in morning cortisol in the PI group, with blunted levels in childhood and heightened levels in late adolescence. PI history was associated with reduced hippocampal volume and reduced growth of the amygdala, resulting in smaller volumes by adolescence. Results also suggested feed-forward brain-to-hormone mechanisms, such that both amygdala and hippocampal volumes were prospectively associated with morning cortisol levels two years later. Finally, amygdala and hippocampal volumes were independently associated with internalizing scores across the entire sample. These results indicate that adversity-related physiological and neural phenotypes are not stationary during development but instead exhibit dynamic and interdependent changes from early childhood to early adulthood.
Gravity, Magnetic Field, and Turbulence: Relative Importance and Impact on Fragmentation in the Infrared Dark Cloud G34.43+00.24

description: (Abbreviated) We investigate the interplay between magnetic (B) field, gravity, and turbulence in the fragmentation process of cores within the filamentary infrared dark cloud G34.43+00.24. We observe the magnetic field (B) morphology across G34.43 and compare with the kinematics obtained from N2H+ across the filament. We derive local velocity gradients from N2H+, tracing motion in the plane of sky, and compare with the observed local B field orientations in the plane of sky. Besides a large-scale east-west velocity gradient, we find a close alignment between local B field orientations and local velocity gradients toward the MM1/MM2 ridge. This local correlation in alignment suggests that gas motions are influenced by the magnetic field morphology or vice versa. Additionally, this alignment seems to be getting even closer with increasing integrated emission in N2H+, possibly indicating that a growing gravitational pull is more and more aligning B field and gas motion. We analyze and quantify B field, gravity, turbulence, and their relative importance toward the MM1, MM2 and MM3 regions with various techniques over two scales, a larger clump area at 2 pc scale and the smaller core area at 0.6 pc scale. While gravitational energy, B field, and turbulent pressure all grow systematically from large to small scale, the ratios among the three constituents develop clearly differently over scale. We propose that this varying relative importance between B field, gravity, and turbulence over scale drives and explains the different fragmentation types seen at sub-pc scale (no fragmentation in MM1; aligned fragmentation in MM2; clustered fragmentation in MM3). We discuss uncertainties, subtleties, and the robustness of our conclusion, and we stress the need of a multi-scale joint analysis to understand the dynamics in these systems.

description: In a previous paper we determined one dimensional distributions of a stationary field with linear regressions and quadratic conditional variances under a linear constraint on the coefficients of the quadratic expression. In this paper we show that for stationary Markov chains with linear regressions and quadratic conditional variances the coefficients of the quadratic expression are indeed tied by a linear constraint which can take only one of the two alternative forms.

description: Although the formulas of tachyon inflation correspond to those of the inflation driven by the ordinary scalar field, there is obvious difference between them, which can not be neglected. We calculate the scalar and tensor perturbation of the string theory inspired tachyon inflation, which has been widely studied recently. We also show, through the Hamilton-Jacobi approach, that the the rolling tachyon can essentially produce enough inflation. An exact solution with the inverse squared potential of tachyon field has been proposed and its power spectra has been analyzed.
