description: Actinobacteria is a dominant phylum in saline soil and play important roles in the process of organic matter decomposition and biogeochemical cycling. In this study, we investigated the diversity and phylogeny of the haloalkaliphilic actinobacteria that inhabited the saline soil of Coastal Gujarat (India) using conventional and molecular approaches. The actinobacteria were diversified on the basis of their growth patterns, morphology, spore color and sugar utilization. The cultivated actinobacteria were genetically diverse, with the ability to grow at high salt concentrations. The salt resistance feature was widely distributed among the isolates and not confined to any particular phylogenetic cluster. The PCR -DGGE approach was used to assess molecular diversity and to mitigate the limitation of the 16S rRNA sequence approach. Reproducible band profiles confirmed that the PCR-DGGE provided an excellent tool for the 16S rDNA heterogeneity analysis. The migration behavior of the 16S rRNA genes on the DGGE gel suggested lack of correlation between the band numbers and α-diversity. The findings highlighted the trends associated with the microbial community and signify the role of the DGGE in distinguishing a group of species that exhibit 16S rRNA based phylogenetic relatedness with distinct phenotypic characters. Based on the 16S rRNA genes, the actinobacteria were identified as belong to Nocardiopsis, Brachybacterium, Streptomyces and Prauseria. Nocardiopsis was the most predominant actinobacterial genera. The study indicated that a combination of the conventional and molecular approaches could be highly significant in analyzing the diversity of the actinobacteria from the saline habitat.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

Virtual Reality’s Effect on Time Estimation is Inconsistent and Depends on Environment Size

description: Despite anecdotal reports that time flies in virtual reality (VR), only a few studies have found that participants underestimate time in VR in comparison with a matched non-VR control condition. Across three experiments, we attempt to replicate one of these studies (Mullen and Davidenko, 2021) and to identify factors that may mediate the effect of VR on time estimation. Participants were assigned to play a simple video game for a specified duration (five or 10 minutes) in one of two display conditions (VR or conventional monitor), and we recorded the actual durations they produced. Experiments 1 and 2 both failed to replicate a VR-induced underestimation effect, suggesting that the previously reported effect is not reliable. However, the VR group in Experiment 2 produced significantly longer intervals than the VR group in Experiment 1. This difference may be related to changes in virtual camera size, which inversely determines the simulated scale of the environment in VR. Experiment 3 tested this possibility by assigning participants to estimate time in VR conditions that used a small, medium, or large virtual camera. Participants tended to underestimate time in smaller-camera (i.e., larger environment) conditions relative to larger-camera (smaller environment) conditions. Collectively, these results suggest that controlled experiments may fail to detect VR-induced time compression because the virtual environments that they use as stimuli (specifically, those that can be viewed from a fixed perspective in a non-VR control condition) lack the immersive scale of commercial VR experiences.

description: Filoviruses cause severe hemorrhagic fever in humans. Ebola virus (EBOV) is the most contagious filovirus. Although compassionate treatments have been used during the latest Ebola outbreak, novel anti-EBOV agents are still urgently needed. In this study, sclareol and sclareolide, two natural products in Salvia sclarea, were identified as EBOV entry inhibitors with EC50s of 2.4 μmol/L and 8.0 μmol/L, respectively, through blocking the viral fusion process. Moreover, both compounds exhibited inhibitory effects on all tested filoviruses’ entry, indicating their wide-spectrum activities against filoviruses. This study provides insights into the two natural products and their applications against filovirus infectious diseases.

description: The water curtain (WC) system has been applied to the greenhouse agricultural practice as an additional heat source during the cold season in South Korea. Thus, heavy groundwater extraction induces a drawdown of the groundwater level and an influx of adjacent surface water into the aquifers. Along with many reports on physicochemical transitions caused by groundwater–surface water mixing, not much knowledge exists about the resulting possible shifts and/or transitions of the subsurface and/or groundwater microbial community structures. Here, we studied a WC system's active site during a winter season to evaluate potential shifts of microbial community structures across the groundwater and surface water by next generation sequencing in combination with conventional physicochemical monitoring of groundwater. We found that there were shifts of groundwater microbial communities at groundwater (WJ-1 and WJ-2) near the adjacent stream, but there was a relatively delayed response of the community in the groundwater (WJ-3) located at some distance from surface water despite proximity to the wells of heavy groundwater extraction.

DESCRIBING OVARIAN DEVELOPMENT IN GIRLS FROM BIRTH TO 9 MONTHS

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: The decline in exposure to maternal estrogen during birth triggers an increase in the production of gonadotropins and other reproductive hormones in infants, a phenomenon referred to as minipuberty. This transient activation of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis is accompanied by heightened folliculogenesis and ovarian growth in girls. The growth of ovaries and changes in other reproductive organs during infancy is a normal part of development and may impact long-term reproductive function. However, established normative ranges for ovarian growth in infancy have not been determined or explored in relation to adult reproductive function.

description: Relativistic quantum theories are usually thought of as being quantum field theories, but this is not the only possibility. Here we consider relativistic quantum theories with a fixed number of particles that interact neither through potentials nor through exchange of bosons. Instead, the interaction can occur directly along light cones, in a way similar to the Wheeler-Feynman formulation of classical electrodynamics. For two particles, the wave function is here of the form $ψ(x_1,x_2)$, where $x_1$ and $x_2$ are spacetime points. Specifically, we consider a natural class of covariant equations governing the time evolution of $ψ$ involving integration over light cones, or even more general spacetime regions. It is not obvious, however, whether these equations possess a unique solution for every initial datum. We prove for Friedmann-Lemaitre-Robertson-Walker spacetimes (certain cosmological curved spacetimes with a Big Bang singularity, i.e., with a beginning in time) that in the case of purely retarded interactions there does, in fact, exist a unique solution for every datum on the initial hypersurface. The proof is based on carrying over similar results for a Minkowski half-space (i.e., the future of a spacelike hyperplane) to curved spacetime. Furthermore, we show that also in the case of time-symmetric interactions and for spacetimes with both a Big Bang and a Big Crunch solutions do exist. However, initial data are then not appropriate anymore; the solution space gets parametrized in a different way.

description: A systematic geometric theory for the ultradifferentiable (non-quasianalytic and quasianalytic) wavefront set similar to the well-known theory in the classic smooth and analytic setting is developed. In particular an analogue of Bony's Theorem and the invariance of the ultradifferentiable wavefront set under diffeomorphisms of the same regularity is proven using a Theorem of Dyn'kin about the almost-analytic extension of ultradifferentiable functions. Furthermore we prove a microlocal elliptic regularity theorem for operators defined on ultradifferentiable vector bundles. As an application we show that Holmgren's theorem and several generalizations hold for operators with quasianalytic coefficients.

description: This paper investigates the determinants of internet environmental disclosure (IED) amongst Malaysian listed companies. Ten variables have been tested using data collected from 170 Malaysian listed company websites, namely, dominant personalities in the audit committee, chairman of audit and nomination committees, dominant personalities in the audit and nomination committees, internationality, leverage, foreign shareholders, level of technology, firm age, number of shareholders, and listing status. It was found that internationality, foreign shareholders, level of technology, firm age, number of shareholders, and listing status are significantly affected by the level of IED. However, dominant personalities in the audit committee, chairman of audit and nomination committees, dominant personalities in the audit and nomination committees, and leverage did not show a significant relationship with the level of IED in Malaysia. The study provided some evidence to support signaling theory, shareholder accountability theory, and cost and benefit hypothesis in relation to internet disclosure.

description: The second Gaia data release contains the identification of 147 535 low-mass ($\le 1.4 M_{\odot}$) rotational modulation variable candidates on (or close to) the main sequence, together with their rotation period and modulation amplitude. The richness, the period and amplitude range, and the photometric precision of this sample make it possible to unveil, for the first time, signatures of different surface inhomogeneity regimes in the amplitude-period density diagram. The modulation amplitude distribution shows a clear bimodality, with an evident gap at periods $P \le 2$ d. The low amplitude branch, in turn, shows a period bimodality with a main clustering at periods $P \approx$ 5 - 10 d and a secondary clustering of ultra-fast rotators at $P \le 0.5$ d. The amplitude-period multimodality is correlated with the position in the period-absolute magnitude (or period-color) diagram, with the low- and high-amplitude stars occupying different preferential locations. Here we argue that such a multimodality represents a further evidence of the existence of different regimes of surface inhomogeneities in young and middle-age low-mass stars and we lay out possible scenarios for their evolution, which manifestly include rapid transitions from one regime to another. In particular, the data indicate that stars spinning up close to break-up velocity undergo a very rapid change in their surface inhomogeneities configuration, which is revealed here for the first time. The multimodality can be exploited to identify field stars of age $\sim$ 100 -- 600 Myr belonging to the slow-rotator low-amplitude sequence, for which age can be estimated from the rotation period via gyrochronology relationships.

Year: 1999
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Lattice (hep-lat)

description: We present Monte Carlo simulation results for the three dimensional Thirring model for numbers of fermion flavors N_f=4 and 6. For N_f=4 we find a second order chiral symmetry breaking transition at strong coupling, corresponding to an ultra-violet fixed point of the renormalisation group defining a non-trivial continuum limit. The critical exponents extracted from a fit to a model equation of state are distinct from those found for N_f=2. For N_f=6, in contrast, we present evidence for tunnelling between chirally symmetric and broken vacua at strong coupling, implying that the phase transition is first order and no continuum limit exists. The implications for the phase diagram of the model in the plane of coupling strength and N_f are briefly discussed.

description: The purpose of the study was to identify the significance of selected components of corporate governance over performance of companies listed in Bursa Malaysia. In this study the most important components of corporate governance; including board independence, board size, board expertise, audit committee size, audit committee independence, and audit committee expertise have been examined as the independent variables that influence the financial performance of companies listed in Bursa Malaysia. This study has been carried out over a sample of 150 best non-financial listed companies of Malaysia. The study is different from previous studies, as in previous studies either the board characteristics are observed or the audit committee characteristics are observed, but in this study the combined effect of both have been analysed in relation to return on equity. The study is based on cross sectional analysis and the year 2014 has been analysed. Regression analysis was conducted using Statistical Package for Social Science Version 22 (SPSS 22). The outcomes of this study identified that all the variables have a significant positive impact over performance of financial performance of the companies. The study ended up with certain suggestions on the basis of limitations that have been faced while conducting this study.

description: The modelling of the ultraviolet contributions to the quark determinant in lattice QCD in terms of a small number of Wilson loops is examined. Complete Dirac spectra are obtained for sizeable ensembles of SU(3) gauge fields at $β$=5.7 on 6$^4$, 8$^4$, and 10$^4$ lattices allowing for the first time a detailed study of the volume dependence of the effective loop action generating the quark determinant. The connection to the hopping parameter expansion is examined in the heavy quark limit. We compare the efficiency and accuracy of various methods- specifically, Lanczos versus stochastic approaches- for extracting the quark determinant on an ensemble of configurations.

Sustainable Decision-Making for Efficient Resource Management: A Food Security Case Study

Subjects: classificationCode: 40

description: Food security is one of the most pressing current resource management problems. It has become a concern for many countries in the light of changing climatic conditions, unpredictable instabilities and increasing consumption of resources. The purpose of this thesis is to address food availability as part of the food security challenge, through suggesting a modular framework that tackles major complexities hindering efficient decision-making within the food sector. The methodology suggested is based on a bottom up approach comprised, aiming at a first stage, at enhancing local production. Three decision-making techniques are used as part of this research thesis. The first module is based on a combination of single-objective optimization models based on linear programming, stochastic programming, and game theory approach. The results obtained demonstrate that interesting interactions between systems, albeit competitive, can potentially result in the achievement of desired objectives under properly regulated markets, and is therefore envisaged as a promising contribution towards sustainable policy development and nexus governance. The second module suggests a methodology that utilises the nexus thinking to influence decision-making within the food sector considering the uncertainty in natural gas prices. It assesses technology alternatives for a domestic food production case in Qatar based on economic and environmental performance represented by global warming potential (GWP). Findings indicate that diversifying the energy and water mix through introducing more than 70% of renewable energy technologies reduces the environmental impact. The last section of the thesis integrates international trade into the analysis of the food sector through proposing a dynamic decision-making scheme that simulates strategies of the perishable food market in Qatar under different circumstances. The case is modelled using an agent-based model (ABM).

description: The Super Cryogenic Dark Matter Search experiment (SuperCDMS) at the Soudan Underground Laboratory studied energy loss associated with Frenkel defect formation in germanium crystals at mK temperatures using in situ $^{210}$Pb sources. We examine the spectrum of $^{206}$Pb nuclear recoils near its expected 103 keV endpoint energy and determine an energy loss of $\left(6.08\pm0.18\right)$ %, which we attribute to defect formation. From this result and using TRIM simulations, we extract the first experimentally determined average displacement threshold energy of $\left(19.7^{+0.6}_{-0.5}\right)$ eV for germanium. This has implications for the analysis thresholds of future germanium-based dark matter searches.

description: We investigate effects of action improvement on the light hadron spectrum and the static quark potential in two-flavor QCD for $a^{-1} \approx 1$ GeV and $m_{PS}/m_V = 0.7-0.9$. We compare a renormalization group improved action with the plaquette action for gluons, and the SW-clover action with the Wilson action for quarks. We find a significant improvement in the hadron spectrum by improving the quark action, while the gluon improvement is crucial for a rotationally invariant static potential. We also explore the region of light quark masses corresponding to $m_{PS}/m_V \geq 0.4$ on a 2.7 fm lattice using the improved gauge and quark action. A flattening of the potential is not observed up to 2 fm.

The Scaling of Exact and Approximate Ginsparg-Wilson Fermions

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Lattice (hep-lat)

description: We construct a number of lattice fermions, which fulfill the Ginsparg-Wilson relation either exactly or approximately, and test them in the framework of the 2-flavor Schwinger model. We start from explicit approximations within a short range, and study this formulation, as well as its correction to an exact Ginsparg-Wilson fermion by the ``overlap formula''. Then we suggest a new method to realize this correction perturbatively, without using the tedious square root operator. In this way we combine many favorable properties: good chiral behavior, small mass renormalization, excellent scaling and rotational invariance, as well as a relatively modest computational effort, which makes such formulations most attractive for QCD.

description: This paper investigates whether the internet financial disclosure can be explained by a company’s characteristics and the dominant personalities in board committees of the Malaysian listed companies. Ten hypotheses were tested using data collected from 194 Malaysian listed companies’ websites. Specifically, this paper examines the relationship between the internet financial disclosures (IFD) and the variables, namely internationality, leverage, foreign shareholders, level of technology, firm age, number of shareholders, listing status, dominant personalities in the audit committee, and chairmen of audit and nomination committees. It is found that the level of technology, firm age, number of shareholders and listing status significantly affect the level of IFD. However, the dominant personalities in the audit and nomination committees affect negatively the level of IFD in Malaysia. The study provides some evidence to support the signaling theory and the cost and benefit hypothesis in relation to internet disclosure.

description: The low-lying spectrum of the Dirac operator is predicted to be universal, within three classes, depending on symmetry properties specified according to random matrix theory. The three universal classes are the orthogonal, unitary and symplectic ensemble. Lattice gauge theory with staggered fermions has verified two of the cases so far, unitary and symplectic, with staggered fermions in the fundamental representation of SU(3) and SU(2). We verify the missing case here, namely orthogonal, with staggered fermions in the adjoint representation of SU(N_c), N_c=2, 3.

description: The Koebe circle packing theorem states that every finite planar graph can be realized as the nerve of a packing of (non-congruent) circles in R^3. We investigate the average kissing number of finite packings of non-congruent spheres in R^3 as a first restriction on the possible nerves of such packings. We show that the supremum k of the average kissing number for all packings satisfies 12.566 ~ 666/53 <= k < 8 + 4*sqrt(3) ~ 14.928 We obtain the upper bound by a resource exhaustion argument and the upper bound by a construction involving packings of spherical caps in S^3. Our result contradicts two naive conjectures about the average kissing number: That it is unbounded, or that it is supremized by an infinite packing of congruent spheres.

description: We propose an explicit formula for the GW/PT descendent correspondence in the stationary case for nonsingular projective 3-folds. The formula, written in terms of vertex operators, is found by studying the 1-leg geometry. We prove the proposal for all nonsingular projective toric 3-folds. An application to the Virasoro constraints for the stationary descendent theory of stable pairs will appear in a sequel.

description: The Kōnkaṇi territory is now generally believed to have extended roughly along the coast from the present Ratnagiri District of Maharashtra in the North, through present Sindhudurga District of Maharashtra, Goa and present Uttar Kannada District of Karnataka, to the present Udupi District of Karnataka in the South, and also some up-Ghat talukas of Uttar Kannada (Hallyal, Supa, Yellapur, Mundgod, Sirsi and Siddapur talukas) and Belgaum (Khanapur taluka) districts of Karnataka. However, most would not extend the Kōnkaṇi homeland to Mangalore or the present Dakshin Kannada District. By late 19th century Mangalore had a significant Kōnkaṇi population with a dominating presence, thus overshadowing the fact that Kōnkaṇi might not have been native to that place. The dominating presence of Kōnkaṇis in Dakshin Kannada probably happened on account of the relocation of Kōnkaṇis to Karnataka and Kerala due to political compulsions in earlier times : in the 14th century they fled the invasions of Malik Kafur, Mohammad Bin Tughlak and Nawab Jamal-ud-din, in the 15th century that of the Bahamanis and finally in the 16th century upon the conquest of Goa by the Portuguese, because of the forced conversions and Inquisition. Political compulsions drove Kōnkaṇis to Cochin as well. Trade took them to major entrepôts on the west coast like Mumbai, Honawar, Bhatkal and Calicut, as well as inland centres of trade like Belgaum and Dharwad. In all these places significant communities of Kōnkaṇi diaspora came to be formed over time, fuzzying the borders of Kōnkaṇi homeland.

description: Background: Treatment during acute or early human immunodeficiency virus (HIV)-1 infection is associated with immunologic and virologic benefits. Objective: To evaluate darunavir/cobicistat/emtricitabine/tenofovir alafenamide (D/C/F/TAF) efficacy/safety among patients with acute or early HIV-1 infection who rapidly initiate treatment. Methods: DIAMOND (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT03227861), a phase 3 study, evaluated the efficacy/safety of D/C/F/TAF 800/150/200/10 mg in rapid initiation. Adults aged ≥18 years began D/C/F/TAF within 14 days of diagnosis, prior to the availability of screening/baseline laboratory results. In this subgroup analysis, virologic response (HIV-1 RNA <50 copies/mL) was assessed at Week 48 by intent-to-treat FDA snapshot (ITT-FDA snapshot) and observed (excluding patients with missing data) analyses in patients with acute (HIV-1 antibody negative and HIV-1 RNA positive/p24 positive) or early (HIV-1 antibody positive and suspected infection ≤6 months before screening/baseline) infection. Results: Among 109 patients, 13 had acute and 43 had early HIV-1 infection. High rates of virologic response were demonstrated at Week 48 by ITT-FDA snapshot (acute: 10/13 [76.9%]; early: 37/43 [86.0%]) and observed (acute: 10/11 [90.9%]; early: 37/38 [97.4%]) analyses. No patients discontinued or required regimen change due to baseline resistance or lack of efficacy, or developed protocol-defined virologic failure. Through Week 48, 7 (53.8%) acute and 22 (51.2%) early infection patients had a D/C/F/TAF-related adverse event (AE); none had a D/C/F/TAF-related grade 4 or serious AE. Conclusions: High rates of viral suppression during acute/early infection were achieved with D/C/F/TAF rapid initiation, no treatment-emergent resistant mutations were observed, and D/C/F/TAF was safe and well tolerated.
