description: Context. Betelgeuse is the closest red supergiant (RSG); therefore, it is well suited for studying the complex processes in its atmosphere that lead to the chemical enrichment of the interstellar medium. Aims. We intend to investigate the shape and composition of the close molecular layer (also known as the MOLsphere) that surrounds the star. This analysis is part of a wider program that aims at understanding the dynamics of the circumstellar envelope of Betelgeuse. Methods. On January and February 2011, Betelgeuse was observed using the Astronomical Multi-BEam combineR (AMBER) instrument of the Very Large Telescope Interferometer (VLTI) in the H and K bands. Using the medium spectral resolution of the instrument (R $\sim$ 1500), we were able to investigate the carbon monoxide band heads and the water-vapor bands. We used two different approaches to analyse our data: a model fit in both the continuum and absorption lines and then a fit with a Radiative HydroDynamics (RHD) simulation. Results. Using the continuum data, we derive a uniform disk diameter of $41.01 \pm 0.41$~mas, a power law type limb-darkened disk diameter of $42.28 \pm 0.43$~mas and a limb-darkening exponent of $0.155 \pm 0.009$. Within the absorption lines, using a single layer model, we obtain parameters of the MOLsphere. Using a RHD simulation, we unveil the convection pattern in the visibilities. Conclusions. We derived a new value of the angular diameter of Betelgeuse in the K band continuum. Our observations in the absorption lines are well reproduced by a molecular layer at 1.2 stellar radii containing both CO and H$_2$O. The visibilities at higher spatial frequencies are matching a convection pattern in a RHD simulation.

description: Establishing the hybrid entanglement among a growing number of matter and photonic quantum bits is necessary for the scalable quantum computation and long distance quantum communication. Here we demonstrate that charged excitonic complexes forming in strongly correlated quantum dot molecules are able to generate tripartite hybrid entanglement under proper carrier quantization. The mixed orbitals of the molecule construct multilevel ground states with sub-meV hole tunneling energy and relatively large electron hybridization energy. We show that appropriate size and interdot spacing maintains the electron particle weakly localized, opening extra recombination channels by correlating ground-state excitons. This allows for creation of higher order entangled states. Nontrivial hole tunneling energy, renormalized by the multi-particle interactions, facilitates realizing the energy coincidence among only certain components of the molecule optical spectrum. This translates to the emergence of favorable spectral components in a multi-body excitonic complex which sustain principal oscillator strengths throughout the electric-field-induced hole tunneling process. We particularly analyse whether the level broadening of favorable spin configurations could be manipulated to eliminate the distinguishability of photons.

description: We have studied the angular dependent de Haas-van Alphen oscillations of LaRu$_2$P$_2$ using magnetic torque in pulsed magnetic fields up to 60T. The observed oscillation frequencies are in excellent agreement with the geometry of the calculated Fermi surface. The temperature dependence of the oscillation amplitudes reveals effective masses m*($α$)=0.71 and m*($β$)=0.99 m$_e$, which are enhanced over the calculated band mass by $λ^{cyc}$ of 0.8. We find a similar enhancement $λ^γ \approx 1$ in comparing the measured electronic specific heat ($γ= 11.5$ mJ/mol K$^2$) with the total DOS from band structure calculations. Remarkably, very similar mass enhancements have been reported in other pnictides LaFe$_2$P$_2$, LaFePO ($T_c \approx 4K$), and LaRuPO, independent of whether they are superconducting or not. This is contrary to the common perceptions that the normal state quasi-particle renormalizations reflect the strength of the superconducting paring mechanism and leads to new questions about pairing in isostructural and isoelectronic Ru- and Fe-pnictide superconductors.

description: The classical theory of Sobolev towers allows for the construction of an infinite ascending chain of extrapolation spaces and an infinite descending chain of interpolation spaces associated with a given $C_0$-semigroup on a Banach space. In this note we first generalize the latter to the case of a strongly continuous and exponentially equicontinuous semigroup on a complete locally convex space. As a new concept - even for $C_0$-semigroups on Banach spaces - we then define a universal extrapolation space as the completion of the inductive limit of the ascending chain. Under mild assumptions we show that the semigroup extends to this space and that it is generated by an automorphism of the latter. Dually, we define a universal interpolation space as the projective limit of the descending chain. We show that the restriction of the initial semigroup to this space is again a semigroup and always has an automorphism as generator.

description: This paper presents a search for new particles in events with one lepton (electron or muon) and missing transverse momentum using 20.3 $fb^{-1}$ of proton-proton collision data at $\sqrt{s}=8$ TeV recorded by the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider. No significant excess beyond Standard Model expectations is observed. A $W'$ with Sequential Standard Model couplings is excluded at the 95% confidence level for masses up to 3.24 TeV. Excited chiral bosons ($W^{*}$) with equivalent coupling strengths are excluded for masses up to 3.21 TeV. In the framework of an effective field theory limits are also set on the dark matter-nucleon scattering cross-section as well as the mass scale $M_{*}$ of the unknown mediating interaction for dark matter pair production in association with a leptonically decaying $W$.

A total of 26 morphotypes with different combinations of features, differing at least in one of 12 morphological characteristics, have been recorded. Based on original and literature data it is suggested to refer T. fenestrata, T. quadriseptata, T. ventricosa and T. pseudoflocculosa to the synonymy of T. flocculosa and extend the diagnosis of this species. New data on the morphology of T. fenestrata var. geniculata has been obtained. It is suggested to keep the taxonomic status of this form and broaden the diagnosis of the variety.

description: The three e-shape pilots provide sub-seasonal and seasonal forecasts, as well as climate projections for European cities in Finland, Germany and Austria. The developed processing chains can be the starting point for further applications for smart cities. The e-shape pilots will increase the preparedness and response to hazardous weather conditions (e.g. snow accumulation, heavy precipitation, heat waves and dry spells) and climate hazards. They support the progress in achieving the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 11 (sustainable cities and communities). Sub-seasonal and seasonal forecasts for urban areas help the cities authorities preparing for hazardous summer and winter weather conditions (e.g. disaster risk reduction management against "urban" heat). The pilot on winter snow accumulation in Helsinki is a good example of how the sub-seasonal and seasonal forecast inclusion help city authorities planning their requirements of street network maintenance during winter. The urban climate projections provide the climatological scientific basis for mid-term and long-term human settlements planning and management especially against heat in disaster-prone areas.AcknowledgmentThe e-shape project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement 820852.

Our reflections are based on contributions fromfields such as the anthropology of economy and currencies, especiallyfrom the perspective of monetary plurality and governance of commons,and also on concepts developed in the field of Science and TechnologyStudies (STS). The research effort accompanies the material changes ofthe Mumbuca DCC (Maricá, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil), connected to theBrazilian Network of Community Development Banks (CDBs), which hasaccumulated more than one hundred experiences since 1998. We use threedifferent approaches to investigate the Mumbuca digital platform: theprocesses related to the requirements of the digital platformsadopted, the tensions concerning its closed architecture model andfinally the currency circulation data - now digital, and relativelytraceable. The paper explores the impossibility to dissociate, on theone hand, the ‘social practices’ enunciated by the communities relatedto the local currency proposals (and connected to the idea of money asa commons) and, on the other, the materialities present indigitalization processes. Finally, calling for a sociotechnicalapproach, it outlines some of the challenges faced by the CDBsNetwork, towards treating the DCC as a commons.

Photoelectron momentum distributions were recorded by velocity map imaging and projected onto the beam propagation axis. We observe an increasing shift of the peak of this projection opposite to the beam propagation direction with increasing laser intensities. From a comparison with semi-classical simulations, we identify the combined action of the magnetic field of the laser pulse and the Coulomb potential as origin of our observations.

title: Building Multi-Discipline, Multi-Format Digital Libraries Using Clusters and Buckets
Creators: name: Nelson, Michael L.
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries
Year: 1997

description: Our objective was to study the feasibility of extending the Dienst protocol to enable a multi-discipline, multi-format digital library. We implemented two new technologies: cluster functionality and publishing buckets. We have designed a possible implementation of clusters and buckets, and have prototyped some aspects of the resultant digital library.

Currently, digital libraries are segregated by the disciplines they serve ( computer science, aeronautics, etc.), and by the format of their holdings (reports, software, datasets, etc.). NCSTRL+ is a multi-discipline, multi-format digital library (DL) prototype created to explore the feasibility of the design and implementation issues involved with created a unified, canonical scientific and technical information (STI) DL. NCSTRL+ is based on the Networked Computer Science Technical Report Library (NCSTRL), a World Wide Web (WWW) accessible DL that provides access to over 80 university departments and laboratories.

We have extended the Dienst protocol (version 4.1.8), the protocol underlying NCSTRL, to provide the ability to cluster independent collections into a logically centralized DL based upon subject category classification, type of organization, and genre of material. The concept of buckets provides a mechanism for publishing and managing logically linked entities with multiple data formats. NCSTRL+ contains some of tl holdings of NCSTRL and the NASA Technical Report Server (NTRS). The prototype demonstrates the feasibility of publishing into a multi-cluster DL, searching across clusters, and storing and presenting buckets of information. The clusters provide multi-discipline access, and the buckets allow for the storage and retrieval of new information formats, increasing the availability of all forms of STI. We found that the overhead for these additional capabilities is minimal to both the author and the user when compared to the equivalent process within NCSTRL. We cover the current modifications to Dienst, discuss the proposed modifications to Dienst that we are coordinating with the NCSTRL Working Group, discuss the proposed tools to facilitate the construction and use of buckets, and discuss additional capabilities for which clusters and buckets provide the foundation.

description: We report on a voltage tunable radio-frequency (RF) detector based on a magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ). The spin-torque diode effect is used to excite and/or detect RF oscillations in the magnetic free layer of the MTJ. In order to reduce the overall in-plane magnetic anisotropy of the free layer, we take advantage of the perpendicular magnetic anisotropy at the interface between ferromagnetic and insulating layers. The applied bias voltage is shown to have a significant influence on the magnetic anisotropy, and thus on the resonance frequency of the device. This influence also depends on the voltage polarity. The obtained results are accounted for in terms of the interplay of spin-transfer-torque and voltage-controlled magnetic anisotropy effects.

Also in warm situations soil moisture hinders wood production operations. Forecasting harvesting conditions have a great potential value that will be demonstrated in this pilot. In addition carbon emissions from forest land change differently depending on the harvesting methods used.

description: The application of deep learning (DL) models to neuroimaging data poses several challenges, due to the high dimensionality, low sample size, and complex temporo-spatial dependency structure of these data. Even further, DL models often act as black boxes, impeding insight into the association of cognitive state and brain activity. To approach these challenges, we introduce the DeepLight framework, which utilizes long short-term memory (LSTM) based DL models to analyze whole-brain functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI) data. To decode a cognitive state (e.g., seeing the image of a house), DeepLight separates an fMRI volume into a sequence of axial brain slices, which is then sequentially processed by an LSTM. To maintain interpretability, DeepLight adapts the layer-wise relevance propagation (LRP) technique. Thereby, decomposing its decoding decision into the contributions of the single input voxels to this decision. Importantly, the decomposition is performed on the level of single fMRI volumes, enabling DeepLight to study the associations between cognitive state and brain activity on several levels of data granularity, from the level of the group down to the level of single time points. To demonstrate the versatility of DeepLight, we apply it to a large fMRI dataset of the Human Connectome Project. We show that DeepLight outperforms conventional approaches of uni- and multivariate fMRI analysis in decoding the cognitive states and in identifying the physiologically appropriate brain regions associated with these states. We further demonstrate DeepLight's ability to study the fine-grained temporo-spatial variability of brain activity over sequences of single fMRI samples.

description: Commitments for biodiversity conservation require, inter alia, the assessment of the status and trends of biodiversity. For the key users, this translates into an increased demand for relevant and easily accessible biodiversity information. In this context, GEO BON, one of the flagships of GEO, is developing the framework of the Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBVs) [1]. The EBVs are a minimum set of complementary measurements that capture major dimensions of biodiversity change, and are produced by integrating primary observations, (from e.g. in-situ monitoring or remote sensing), in space and time [2]. The production chain of EBVs often requires the use of models and ancillary data and should be documented in open and reproducible workflows [3]. The portal developed by GEO BON will deliver those EBVs to users, at various scales, and will allow on the fly calculations and visualisations of trends. The portal will provide access to the Remote Sensing enabled EBVs [4] developed within the ESA GlobDiversity and H2020 NEXTGEOSS projects.AcknowledgmentThe e-shape project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement 820852.

description: Observations of atmospheric metals and dust discs around white dwarfs provide important clues to the fate of terrestrial planetary systems around intermediate mass stars. We present Spitzer IRAC observations of 15 metal polluted white dwarfs to investigate the occurrence and physical properties of circumstellar dust created by the disruption of planetary bodies. We find subtle infrared excess emission consistent with warm dust around KUV 15519+1730 and HS 2132+0941, and weaker excess around the DZ white dwarf G245-58, which, if real, makes it the coolest white dwarf known to exhibit a 3.6 micron excess and the first DZ star with a bright disc. All together our data corroborate a picture where 1) discs at metal-enriched white dwarfs are commonplace and most escape detection in the infrared (possibly as narrow rings), 2) the discs are long lived, having lifetimes on the order of 10^6 yr or longer, and 3) the frequency of bright, infrared detectable discs decreases with age, on a timescale of roughly 500 Myr, suggesting large planetesimal disruptions decline on this same timescale.

Earth Observation is bringing tools that support the transition, but their adoption is slow due to the high complexity of the issue.DynaCrop is a white-label ecosystem enabling companies in the food value chain to use advanced information, statistics and intelligence based on Earth Observation. It provides ready-made crop monitoring, field statistics, application maps and soil moisture assessment on a global scale.DynaCrop pursues a synergy with companies already established in the food value chain and helps them to integrate EO-based information at scale. In this way, it minimizes resources needed for EO integration (money, time, human resources) and provides users with state-of-the-art service. Information is delivered through the value-added platform (API, white label web application, QGIS plugin) and users are receiving user-centric consulting and R&D cooperation as part of the cooperation.AcknowledgmentThe e-shape project has received funding from the European Union's Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under grant agreement 820852.
On the shape of bodies in General Relativistic regimes

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: The analysis of axisymmetric spacetimes, dynamical or stationary, is usually made in the reduced space. We prove here a stability property of the quo- tient space and use it together with minimal surface techniques to constraint the shape of General Relativistic bodies in terms of their energy and rotation. These constraints are different in nature to the mechanical limitations that a particular material body can have and which can forbid, for instance, rotation faster than a certain rate, (after which the body falls apart). The relations we are describing instead are fundamental and hold for all bodies, albeit they are useful only in General Relativistic regimes. For Neutron stars they are close to be optimal, and, although precise models for these stars display tighter con- straints, our results are significative in that they do not depend on the equation of state.

description: Heterochromatin protein 1 (HP1) participates in establishing and maintaining heterochromatin via its histone modification dependent chromatin interactions. In recent papers HP1 binding to nucleosomal arrays was measured in vitro and interpreted in terms of nearest-neighbor cooperative binding. This mode of chromatin interactions could lead to spreading of HP1 along the nucleosome chain. Here, we reanalyzed previous data by representing the nucleosome chain as a one-dimensional binding lattice, and show how the experimental HP1 binding isotherms can be explained by a simpler model without cooperative interactions between neighboring HP1 dimers. Based on these calculations and spatial models of dinucleosomes and nucleosome chains, we propose that binding stoichiometry is dependent of the nucleosome repeat length (NRL) rather than protein interactions between HP1 dimers. According to our calculations, more open nucleosome arrays with long DNA linkers are characterized by a larger number of binding sites in comparison to chains with short NRL. Furthermore, we demonstrate by Monte Carlo simulations that the NRL dependent folding of the nucleosome chain can induce allosteric changes of HP1 binding sites. Thus, HP1 chromatin interactions can be modulated by the change of binding stoichiometry and type of binding to condensed (methylated) and non-condensed (unmethylated) nucleosome arrays in the absence of direct interactions between HP1 dimers.

description: Members of the genus Notoalona Rajapaksa et Fernando, 1987 (Chydoridae: Aloninae) inhabit diverse swampy environments in tropical regions all around the World. Here we analyze morphological features of this genus based on both the original materials from Sudan, Ethiopia, Kenya and Thailand, and the published data. According to our observations, fine characters of parthenogenetic females (structure of postabdominal basal spine, length of setules near its base and structure of thoracic limbs) are important for discrimination between the sibling species of Notoalona. However identification of taxa based exclusively on these characters may be difficult, dubious or even impossible in some cases. tThe African populations under study potentially can represent a new species for science, but a re-examination of the type material of N. pseudomacronyx Van Damme, Maiphae et Sa-Ardrit, 2013 is necessary for the formal description of a new species. At present, morphological features of Notoalona remain insufficiently studied due to their small size and rarity in hydrobiological samples. This situation obstructs an assessment of actual species diversity within the genus.

description: This study focuses on heavy metals distribution and their ecological risk in river water, bed sediment, and suspended particulate matter (SPM) along the Ganga River basin. Overall abundance of the metals followed the sequence, Fe > Al > Mn > Pb > Ni > Cd > Cr > Zn > Co in water, Al > Fe > Mn > Zn > Cr > Cu > Ni > Co > Pb > Cd in bed sediment, while Al > Fe > Mn > Cr > Zn > Ni > Cu > Pb > Co > Cd in SPM. Among the abundant metals, Fe and Mn average concentrations exceeded BIS and WHO limits in river water. Similarly, Fe, Cd, and Zn, and most metals exceeded local background concentrations in bed sediment and SPM, respectively. Major ion chemistry in water signified carbonate weathering dominance during the time of sampling. Generally, Mn, Ni, Cu, Cr, and Co were derived from natural weathering and erosion, while Zn, Cd, and Pb were derived from both natural and anthropogenic sources. Metal index (MI) for river water showed that 27% of the locations were anthropogenically affected, whereas contamination factor and ecological risk assessment indicated highest contamination and risk from Cr and Cd in suspended sediments around urban centers in the middle basin. Furthermore, the confluence of Chambal and Yamuna increased heavy metal load in Yamuna and Ganga, respectively. The study highlighted the role of the water–sediment interaction indicating SPM is acting as a sink for metals followed by bed sediment.
Efficacy of multimedia learning modules as preparation for lecture-based tutorials in electromagnetism

description: We have investigated the efficacy of online, multimedia learning modules (MLMs) as preparation for in-class, lecture-based tutorials in electromagnetism in a physics course for natural science majors (biology and marine science). Specifically, we report the results of a multiple-group pre/post-test research design comparing two groups receiving different treatments with respect to activities preceding participation in Tutorials in Introductory Physics. The different pre-tutorial activities where as follows: (1) students were assigned reading from a traditional textbook, followed by a traditional lecture; and (2) students completed online multimedia learning modules developed by the Physics Education Research Group at the University of Illinois at Urbana Champaign (UIUC), and commercially known as smartPhysics. The MLM treatment group earned significantly higher mid-term examination scores and larger gains in content knowledge as measured by the Conceptual Survey of Electricity and Magnetism (CSEM). Student attitudes towards "reformed" instruction in the form of active-engagement tutorials where also improved. Specifically, post-course surveys showed MLM-group students believed class time was more effective and the instructor was more clear than reported by non-MLM students, even though there was no significant difference between groups with respect to in-class activities and the same instructor taught both groups. MLM activities can be a highly effective tool for some student populations, especially when student preparation and buy-in are important for realizing significant gains.

description: This paper explores the fundamental importance of sociality tomonetary sovereignty, investigating the apparent contrast between thestate and the market in theories of money. Sociality deservesattention given the recent increase since the 1990s of denationalised,regional and, more recently, crypto currencies, which are differentfrom legal tender. First, we examine the classification of metalismand chartalism, that is, the commodity theory of money on one hand andthe chartal theory of money on the other (Section 2). The former hasbeen dominant in the history of economic thought, focussing oncatallactics, or the function of money as a medium of exchange, whilethe latter lays more importance on the function of money as a means ofpayment and relies on literature in history and anthropology. We thenconcentrate on the meaning of the institution of payment and debt,with which a person can participate in the society to which he/shebelongs (Section 3). People’s belief in the perpetual validity of thisinstitution is indispensable for monetary sovereignty. Further, weinvestigate the idea of the social credit given a hundred years ago,when the trust in this institution and the state itself was severelylacking, as an important application of the sociality of money. Inconclusion, we show that sociality among people, embodied in theexistence of monies and currencies, cannot be reduced to the marketnor to the state.

description: The subdwarf-B pulsator, KIC 10553698A, is one of 16 such objects observed with one-minute sampling for most of the duration of the Kepler Mission. Like most of these stars, it displays a rich g-mode pulsation spectrum with several clear multiplets that maintain regular frequency splitting. We identify these pulsation modes as components of rotationally split multiplets in a star rotating with a period of about 41 d. From 162 clearly significant periodicities, we are able to identify 156 as likely components of l=1 or l=2 multiplets. For the first time we are able to detect l=1 modes that interpose in the asymptotic period sequences and that provide a clear indication of mode trapping in a stratified envelope, as predicted by theoretical models. A clear signal is also present in the Kepler photometry at 3.387 d. Spectroscopic observations reveal a radial-velocity amplitude of 64.8 km/s. We find that the radial-velocity variations and the photometric signal have phase and amplitude that are perfectly consistent with a Doppler-beaming effect and conclude that the unseen companion, KIC 10553698B, must be a white dwarf most likely with a mass close to 0.6 solar masses.

Visualization of the paranemic joining of homologous DNA molecules catalyzed by the RecA protein of Escherichia coli.
Creators: name: Christiansen, G.
name: Griffith, J.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 1986

description: In reactions catalyzed by the RecA protein of Escherichia coli, synapsis between two DNA molecules is believed to occur even in the absence of free homologous DNA ends and to involve a metastable interaction termed paranemic joining. We have used electron microscopic methods to visualize synapse formation between supertwisted M13 double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) and linear M13 mp7 single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) with non-M13 sequences at its ends. These non-M13 sequences block strand invasion and make this pairing equivalent to the joining of two fully circular molecules. We observed a high frequency of joining when the ssDNA was initially assembled into presynaptic filaments with RecA protein. Cleavage of the dsDNA in the joined complexes by Hpa I revealed that the joint was at a site of homology. In these joints, the dsDNA entered the presynaptic filament over a length of 360 +/- 80 base pairs, not visibly altering its ultrastructure, and then dissociated from the filament. Although the dsDNA in the complexes appeared topologically relaxed, deproteinization released supertwisted dsDNA, indicating that the dsDNA was unwound by 34 degrees per base pair in the paranemic joint. When supertwisted M13 dsDNA was paired with circular M13 ssDNA, similar joints were observed and both DNA circles appeared topologically relaxed.
