description: High sensitivity (rms noise $\sim 0.5$ mJy) 21-cm HI line observations were made of 33 galaxies in the Virgo cluster, using the refurbished Arecibo telescope, which resulted in the detection of 12 objects. These data, combined with the measurements available from the literature, provide the first set of HI data that is complete for all 355 late-type (Sa-Im-BCD) galaxies in the Virgo cluster with $m_p \leq 18.0$ mag. The Virgo cluster HI mass function (HIMF) that was derived for this optically selected galaxy sample is in agreement with the HIMF derived for the Virgo cluster from the blind HIJASS HI survey and is inconsistent with the Field HIMF. This indicates that both in this rich cluster and in the general field, neutral hydrogen is primarily associated with late-type galaxies, with marginal contributions from early-type galaxies and isolated HI clouds. The inconsistency between the cluster and the field HIMF derives primarily from the difference in the optical luminosity function of late-type galaxies in the two environments, combined with the HI deficiency that is known to occur in galaxies in rich clusters.

description: Teleparallel gravity is a modified theory of gravity in which the Ricci scalar $R$ of the Lagrangian replaced by the general function of torsion scalar $T$ in action. With that, cosmology in teleparallel gravity becomes profoundly simplified because it is second-order theory. The article present a complete cosmological scenario in $f(T)$ gravity with $f(T)=T+β(-T)^α$, where $α,$ and $β$ are model parameters. We present the profiles of energy density, pressure, and equation of state (EoS) parameter. Next to this, we employ statefinder diagnostics to check deviation from the $Λ$CDM model as well as the nature of dark energy. Finally, we discuss the energy conditions to check the consistency of our model and observe that SEC violates in the present model supporting the acceleration of the Universe as per present observation.

description: Listed companies of the swine industry, as an important form of agricultural industrialized operation, are typical representatives of large-scale production and the level of their operation efficiency exerts a direct influence on the healthy development of the swine industry. Using the DEA-based Malmquist method, this paper made a static and dynamic evaluation of the operation efficiency of 16 listed companies in China's swine industry in 2010-2014. It obtained following results: (i) The overall efficiency of listed companies of China’s swine industry remained at high level and the development trend was excellent. (ii) Different types of enterprises had difference in the overall efficiency, pure technical efficiency and scale efficiency. In general, pig feed processing companies had the best performance, followed by slaughtering and deep processing companies, and swine breeding companies were the worst. (iii) The total factor productivity characterized by the Malmquist index declined year by year in 2010-2013 and was improved in 2014, mainly due to technological progress. (iv) The total asset turnover ratio, equity concentration, and R & D management level had a significantly positive impact on the operation efficiency of listed companies in the swine industry, while the human capital had a significantly negative impact.

description: Through an in-depth analysis of the per capita net income of rural residents in Nyingchi City, it was known that the per capita net income of rural residents in Nyingchi City was increasing at high speed in recent 10 years. However, the wage income, household operating income, and agricultural income gap constitute the major factors influencing the gap of the per capita net income of rural residents in Nyingchi City. Finally, it came up with recommendations including promoting the reasonable flow of labor to the secondary and tertiary industries, increasing the wage income and transfer income of rural residents, accelerating the construction of small towns in rural areas, promoting the development of rural cooperatives, implementing the strategy of “benefiting farmers and strengthening tourism”, promoting integration of agriculture and eco-tourism, promoting the development of modern agriculture, and expanding diversified production income of farmers.

description: The phenomenon of prethermalization and the subsequent steps of thermalization are analyzed in the framework of the chiral quark model. We solve the quantum equations of motion of the field theory derived from the 2PI effective action and study the time scales of equilibration. We find that already after a 0.6 fm/c long period of time some equilibrium features appear, even though the system is still far from equilibrium. This might be an ingredient for understanding the success of ideal hydrodynamic description.

description: The concept of out-of-time-ordered correlation (OTOC) function is treated as a very strong theoretical probe of quantum randomness, using which one can study both chaotic and non-chaotic phenomena in the context of quantum statistical mechanics. In this paper, we define a general class of OTOC, which can perfectly capture quantum randomness phenomena in a better way. Further we demonstrate an equivalent formalism of computation using a general time independent Hamiltonian having well defined eigenstate representation for integrable supersymmetric quantum systems. We found that one needs to consider two new correlators apart from the usual one to have a complete quantum description. To visualize the impact of the given formalism we consider the two well known models viz. Harmonic Oscillator and one dimensional potential well within the framework of supersymmetry. For the Harmonic Oscillator case we obtain similar periodic time dependence but dissimilar parameter dependences compared to the results obtained from both micro-canonical and canonical ensembles in quantum mechanics without supersymmetry. On the other hand, for one dimensional potential well problem we found significantly different time scale and the other parameter dependence compared to the results obtained from non-supersymmetric quantum mechanics. Finally, to establish the consistency of the prescribed formalism in the classical limit, we demonstrate the phase space averaged version of the classical version of OTOCs from a model independent Hamiltonian along with the previously mentioned these well cited models.

title: Zebrafish Posterior Lateral Line Organogenesis Regulation by Notch Signaling
Creators: name: Kozlovskaja-Gumbriene, Agne
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2017

description: Organ morphogenesis depends on the precise orchestration of cell migration, cell fate specification and cell shape chages. Results in this thesis demonstrate that Notch signaling is an integral part of the feedback loop between Wnt and Fgf signaling that underlies the self‐organization of rosette‐shaped sensory organs in the zebrafish lateral line system. Notch cell autonomously induces apical constriction and cell adhesion downstream of Fgf signaling and organizes lateral line organs into rosettes independent of patterning cues normally provided by a Wnt/Fgf signaling system. We also show that the ectopic Notch signaling induces larger organs independently of proliferation and the Hippo pathway. Transplantation and RNASeq analyses revealed that Notch signaling induces cell adhesion and tight junction proteins that interact with cytoskeleton causing cells to self‐organize into fewer larger organs rather than several smaller ones. Thus, Notch plays an essential role in coordinating actomyosin induced cell shape changes and their transmission throughout the tissue via adhesion molecules.
Disorder-Induced Quantum Phase Transitions in Three-Dimensional Second-Order Topological Insulators

description: Disorder effects on three-dimensional second-order topological insulators (3DSOTIs) are investigated numerically and analytically. The study is based on a tight-binding Hamiltonian for non-interacting electrons on a cubic lattice with a reflection symmetry that supports a 3DSOTI in the absence of disorder. Interestingly, unlike the disorder effects on a topological trivial system that can only be either a diffusive metal (DM) or an Anderson insulator (AI), disorders can sequentially induce four phases of 3DSOTIs, three-dimensional first-order topologicalinsulators (3DFOTIs), DMs and AIs. At a weak disorder when the on-site random potential of strength $W$ is below a low critical value $W_{c1}$ at which the gap of surface states closes while the bulk sates are still gapped, the system is a disordered 3DSOTI characterized by a constant density of states and a quantized integer conductance of $e^2/h$ through its chiral hinge states. The gap of the bulk states closes at a higher critical disorder $W_{c2}$, and the system is a disordered 3DFOTI in a lower intermediate disorder between $W_{c1}$ and $W_{c2}$ in which electron conduction is through the topological surface states. The system becomes a DM in a higher intermediate disorder between $W_{c2}$ and $W_{c3}$ above which the states at the Fermi level are localized. It undergoes a normal three-dimension metal-to-insulator transition at $W_{c3}$ and becomes the conventional AI for $W>W_{c3}$. The self-consistent Born approximation allows one to see how the density of bulk states and the Dirac mass are modified by the on-site disorders.

description: We analyze a model system of fermions in a harmonic oscillator potential under the influence of a dissipative environment: The fermions are subject to a fluctuating force deriving from a bath of harmonic oscillators. This represents an extension of the well-known Caldeira-Leggett model to the case of many fermions. Using the method of bosonization, we calculate one- and two-particle Green's functions of the fermions. We discuss the relaxation of a single extra particle added above the Fermi sea, considering also dephasing of a particle added in a coherent superposition of states. The consequences of the separation of center-of-mass and relative motion, the Pauli principle, and the bath-induced effective interaction are discussed. Finally, we extend our analysis to a more generic coupling between system and bath, that results in complete thermalization of the system.

description: In large-momentum effective theory (LaMET), calculating parton physics starts from calculating coordinate-space-$z$ correlation functions $\tilde h(z, a,P^z)$ in a hadron of momentum $P^z$ in lattice QCD. Such correlation functions involve both linear and logarithmic divergences in lattice spacing $a$, and thus need to be properly renormalized. We introduce a hybrid renormalization procedure to match these lattice correlations to those in the continuum $\overline{\rm MS}$ scheme, without introducing extra non-perturbative effects at large $z$. We analyze the effect of ${\cal O}(Λ_{\rm QCD})$ ambiguity in the Wilson line self-energy subtraction involved in this hybrid scheme. To obtain the momentum-space distributions, we recommend to extrapolate the lattice data to the asymptotic $z$-region using the generic properties of the coordinate space correlations at moderate and large $P^z$, respectively.

Assessment of distress associated with carbon dioxide euthanasia in laboratory rats
Creators: name: Niel, Lee Erin
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Carbon dioxide (CO₂) gas is the most widely used euthanasia agent for laboratory rodents. However, it has the potential to cause both pain and dyspnea [i.e. dyspnœa], an unpleasant sensation of breathless, while animals are still conscious. The aims of this dissertation were to determine whether gradual-fill CO₂ euthanasia causes distress in laboratory rats, and to examine potential sources of distress, including pain, dyspnea and novelty. The first study examined the behavioural responses of rats during gradual-fill CO₂ euthanasia. Rats showed increased exploratory behaviours and escape behaviours during CO₂ euthanasia, suggesting that this procedure does cause distress. The second and third studies used approach-avoidance testing to investigate aversion to CO₂ in rats, by examining their willingness to enter a test cage containing CO₂ for access to an attractive food reward. Rats were found to avoid CO₂ concentrations that are sufficient to cause unconsciousness. Specifically, when tested with static concentrations of CO₂ rats showed avoidance at 15% CO₂ and greater, and when tested with gradually increasing concentrations of CO₂ at flow rates ranging from 3 to 27% per minute, rats showed avoidance at 13 to 16% CO₂. This avoidance indicates that rats are at least moderately averse to CO₂ concentrations occurring during gradual-fill CO₂ euthanasia, and that forced exposure likely causes distress. Concentrations of CO₂ that were associated with behavioural responses and aversion were not consistent with previous data on pain due to CO₂. However, similar concentrations have been shown to cause dyspnea in humans. The final study examined the role of novelty in rats’ responses to CO₂, and found that novelty was not a major source of distress during gradual-fill CO₂ euthanasia. In summary, these studies suggest that gradual-fill CO₂ euthanasia causes distress in rats, and that this distress is likely due to dyspnea. Further research is necessary to examine the effects of CO₂ on other rodent species such as mice, and to identify alternative methods of euthanasia that cause unconsciousness without distress.

Abundances and kinematics of a candidate sub-damped Lyman-alpha galaxy toward PHL 1226

description: The spectrum of the quasar PHL 1226 is known to have a strong Mg II and sub-damped Lyman-alpha (sub-DLA) absorption line system with N(HI)=(5+/-2)*10^19 cm^-2 at z=0.1602. Using integral field spectra from the Potsdam Multi Aperture Spectrophotometer (PMAS) we investigate a galaxy at an impact parameter of 6".4 which is most probably responsible for the absorption lines. A fainter galaxy at a similar redshift and a slightly larger distance from the QSO is known to exist, but we assume that the absorption is caused by the more nearby galaxy. From optical Balmer lines we estimate an intrinsic reddening consistent with 0, and a moderate star formation rate of 0.5 M_sun yr^-1, is inferred from the Halpha luminosity. Using nebular emission line ratios we find a solar oxygen abundance 12+log(O/H)=8.7+/-0.1 and a solar nitrogen to oxygen abundance ratio log(N/O)=-1.0+/-0.2. This abundance is larger than those of all known sub-DLA systems derived from analyses of metal absorption lines in quasar spectra. On the other hand, the properties are compatible with the most metal rich galaxies responsible for strong Mg II absorption systems. These two categories can be reconciled if we assume an abundance gradient similar to local galaxies. Under that assumption we predict abundances 12+log(O/H)=7.1 and log(N/O)=-1.9 for the sub-DLA cloud, which is similar to high redshift DLA and sub-DLA systems. We find evidence for a rotational velocity of ~200 km s^-1 over a length of ~7 kpc. From the geometry and kinematics of the galaxy we estimate that the absorbing cloud does not belong to a rotating disk, but could originate in a rotating halo.

description: Trapped-ion quantum computers have demonstrated high-performance gate operations in registers of about ten qubits. However, scaling up and parallelizing quantum computations with long one-dimensional (1D) ion strings is an outstanding challenge due to the global nature of the motional modes of the ions which mediate qubit-qubit couplings. Here, we devise methods to implement scalable and parallel entangling gates by using engineered localized phonon modes. We propose to tailor such localized modes by tuning the local potential of individual ions with programmable optical tweezers. Localized modes of small subsets of qubits form the basis to perform entangling gates on these subsets in parallel. We demonstrate the inherent scalability of this approach by presenting analytical and numerical results for long 1D ion chains and even for infinite chains of uniformly spaced ions. Furthermore, we show that combining our methods with optimal coherent control techniques allows to realize maximally dense universal parallelized quantum circuits.

The singularity occurs in the material pressure and acceleration whilst the scale factor, expansion rate and material density remain finite and the strong energy condition holds. We also show that the same phenomenon occurs, but under different conditions, for Friedmann universes in gravity theories arising from the variation of an action that is an arbitrary analytic function of the scalar curvature.

We obtain explicit formulae for the first few moments for finite $n$. In the limit $n\to\infty$, our expression coincides with recent conjectures and results concerning the moments of moments of characteristic polynomials of random unitary matrices, supporting the idea that these two problems, which both fall into the class of logarithmically correlated Gaussian random fields, are related to each other.

title: Learning Analytics for Academic Writing through Automatic Identification of Meta-discourse
Creators: name: Bektik, Duygu
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2017

description: Effective written communication is an essential skill which promotes educational success for undergraduates. Argumentation is a key requirement of successful writing, which is the most common genre that undergraduates have to write particularly in the social sciences. Therefore, when assessing student writing academic tutors look for students’ ability to present and pursue well-reasoned and strong arguments through scholarly argumentation, which is articulated by meta-discourse. Today, there are some natural language processing systems which automatically detect authors’ rhetorical moves in scholarly texts. Hence, when assessing their students’ essays, educators could benefit from the available automated textual analysis which can detect meta-discourse. However, previous work has not shown whether these technologies can be used to analyse student writing reliably. The aim of this thesis therefore has been to understand how automated analysis of meta-discourse in student writing can be used to support tutors’ essay assessment practices. This thesis evaluates a particular language analysis tool, the Xerox Incremental Parser (XIP) as an exemplar of this type of automated technology. The studies presented in this thesis investigates how tutors define the quality of undergraduate writing and suggests key elements that make for good quality student writing in the social sciences, where XIP seems to work best. This thesis also sets out the changes that needs to be made to the XIP and proposes in what ways its output can be delivered to tutors so that they make use of this output to give feedback on student essays. The findings reported also show problems that academic tutors experience in essay assessment, which potentially could be solved by automated support. However, tutors have preconceptions about the use of automated support. The study revealed that tutors want to be assured that they retain the ‘power’ themselves in any decision of using automated support to overcome these preconceptions.

description: The transport of electrical current through a superconductor falls into three broad regimes: non-dissipative, dissipative but superconducting, and normal or non-superconducting. These regimes are demarkated by two definitions of critical current: one is the threshold current above which the superconductor enters a dissipative (resistive) state; the other is the thermodynamic threshold above which the superconductivity itself is destroyed and the superconducting order parameter vanishes. The first threshold defines the conventional critical current density Jc and the second defines the depairing (or pair-breaking) current Jd. Type II superconductors in the mixed state have quantized flux vortices, which tend to move when acted upon by the Lorentz driving force of an applied transport current. In such a mixed state the resistance vanishes only when vortices are pinned in place by defects and the applied current is below the threshold Jc required to overcome pinning and mobilize the vortices. Typically Jd >> Jc and a direct experimental measurement of Jd over the entire temperature range (0 < T < Tc) is prohibited by the enormous power dissipation densities (p ~ 10^10 -- 10^12 W/cm^3) needed to reach the normal state. In this work, intense pulsed signals were used to extend transport measurements to unprecedented power densities (p ~ 10^9 -- 10^10 W/cm^3). This together with MgB2's combination of low normal-state resistivity and high transition temperature have permitted a direct estimation of \jd over the entire temperature range. This review describes our experimental investigation of current-induced depairing in MgB2, and provides an introduction to the phenomenological theories of superconductivity and how the observations fit in their context.

description: We review some properties of N=8 gauged supergravity in four dimensions with modified, but AdS invariant boundary conditions on the m^2=-2 scalars. There is a one-parameter class of asymptotic conditions on these fields and the metric components, for which the full AdS symmetry group is preserved. The generators of the asymptotic symmetries are finite, but acquire a contribution from the scalar fields. For a large class of such boundary conditions, we find there exist black holes with scalar hair that are specified by a single conserved charge. Since Schwarschild-AdS is a solution too for all boundary conditions, this provides an example of black hole non-uniqueness. We also show there exist solutions where smooth initial data evolve to a big crunch singularity. This opens up the possibility of using the dual conformal field theory to obtain a fully quantum description of the cosmological singularity, and we report on a preliminary study of this.

description: Facial expression is one of the core issues in the ethological approach to the study of human behaviour. This study discusses sex-specific aspects of the recognition of the facial expression of fear using results from our previously published experimental study. We conducted an experiment in which 201 participants judged seven different facial expressions: anger, contempt, disgust, fear, happiness, sadness and surprise (Trnka et al. 2007). Participants were able to recognize the facial expression of fear significantly better on a male face than on a female face. Females also recognized fear generally better than males. The present study provides a new interpretation of this sex difference in the recognition of fear. We interpret these results within the paradigm of human ethology, taking into account the adaptive function of the facial expression of fear. We argue that better detection of fear might be crucial for females under a situation of serious danger in groups of early hominids. The crucial role of females in nurturing and protecting offspring was fundamental for the reproductive potential of the group. A clear decoding of this alarm signal might thus have enabled the timely preparation of females for escape or defence to protect their health for successful reproduction. Further, it is likely that males played the role of guardians of social groups and that they were responsible for effective warnings of the group under situations of serious danger. This may explain why the facial expression of fear is better recognizable on the male face than on the female face.

description: We explore the coherent dynamics in a small network of three coupled parametric oscillators and demonstrate the effect of frustration on the persistent beating between them. Since a single-mode parametric oscillator represents an analog of a classical Ising spin, networks of coupled parametric oscillators are considered as simulators of Ising spin models, aiming to efficiently calculate the ground state of an Ising network - a computationally hard problem. However, the coherent dynamics of coupled parametric oscillators can be considerably richer than that of Ising spins, depending on the nature of the coupling between them (energy preserving or dissipative), as was recently shown for two coupled parametric oscillators. In particular, when the energy-preserving coupling is dominant, the system displays everlasting coherent beats, transcending the Ising description. Here, we extend these findings to three coupled parametric oscillators, focusing in particular on the effect of frustration of the dissipative coupling. We theoretically analyze the dynamics using coupled nonlinear Mathieu's equations, and corroborate our theoretical findings by a numerical simulation that closely mimics the dynamics of the system in an actual experiment. Our main finding is that frustration drastically modifies the dynamics. While in the absence of frustration the system is analogous to the two-oscillator case, frustration reverses the role of the coupling completely, and beats are found for small energy-preserving couplings.

description: This article investigates the impact of various rural development measures on the evolution of farm labour in France between 2006 and 2011. Regionally-aggregated data were used, while potential spatial effects were taken into account. Results show that farm labour change was positively influenced by the participation to agroenvironmental schemes targeting the protection of water and biodiversity, but was not influenced by investment aids for farm modernisation, grassland premium, payments to organic farming conversion, or payments for the diversification of farm activities and rural tourism. Besides, delayed effects, related to the participation in the previous programming period (2000-2006), are observed.
title: Identification Of Effective New Drugs Combinations Exploiting The Ability Of trabectedin To Modulate Transcription

description: Ewing’s sarcoma (ES) is the second most common malignant bone tumor of childhood, characterized by the chimeric protein EWS-FLI1 (hallmark of this pathology), that alters the transcription of different genes. The five-year overall survival of patients with localized disease is approximately 70%; unfortunately the majority of patients with a metastatic disease have a poor prognosis with a five-year overall survival around the 30%. Among the recently registered drugs for the therapy of sarcomas, trabectedin could be of potential great interest as it seems very active in some “translocated sarcomas”. Trabectedin exerts its antitumor activity with different mechanisms of action. One of the most important is related to its ability to interfere with DNA repair mechanisms (NER and HR), that cause cell cycle perturbations. Furthermore trabectedin is able to displace the oncogenic EWS-FLI1 chimera from its target promoters, modulating the transcription of these genes, in ES cells. Although trabectedin has shown some activity against ES, the overall clinical results indicated only a marginally activity of trabectedin given as single agent in ES. The thesis is aimed at using the available knowledge on trabectedin mechanism of action to identify some effective combinations. Since trabectedin induces cell cycle perturbations I speculated that its activity could be increased by checkpoint inhibitors. The studies performed on the combination of trabectedin and the WEE1 inhibitor, AZD-1775, have shown that the inhibition of WEE1 enhances the trabectedin activity, thus the combination is synergic. Since trabectedin affects the transcription of several genes, I have developed a new approach based on the use of silencing RNA (siRNA) libraries to identify whether the downregulation of some genes was synthetically lethal when ES cells were pretreated with trabectedin. An important part of the thesis was the development, validation and initial application of this approach.
