description: Fieldwork carried out recently in the southeastern branch of the Iberian Range (Valencia Province, Spain) has led to the collection of a large volume of dinosaur eggshell fragments of unusual thickness. These specimens, up to 4.9 mm thick, were recovered from palustrine grey marls of the upper Campanian-lower Maastrichtian Sierra Perenchiza Formation, which comprises a wetland paleoenvironment deposit. These eggshell fragments have a characteristic compactituberculate ornamentation, dinosauroid-spherulitic organisation, and exhibit a complex canaliculate respiratory system. The external tuberculate surface of the shell as well as the internal microstructure enable referral to Megaloolithus aff. siruguei, the most common megaloolithid oospecies known from the Iberian Peninsula and southern France. The biostratigraphic range of M. siruguei matches the temporal distribution of titanosaurid dinosaurs across the Iberian Range, tentatively considered to be potential producers.

description: The quantum spin Hall (QSH) states discovered in an inverted band of InAs/GaSb and HgTe/CdTe quantum wells categorize them among the very superior candidates for topological insulators. In the presence of a magnetic field, these QSH states persist up to a magnetic field equal to the critical field, beyond which the edge states would consist of normal quantum Hall (QH) states. We provide the expression of this critical field which is found consistent with some previous literature. The critical field partitioned the spectrum into two types of quantum states, \textit{viz}. , the Quantum spin Hall (QSH) and Quantum Hall (QH) states. We present a theoretical study of the magnetotransport properties based on the Bernevig-Hughes-Zhang Hamiltonian that describes these QSH states. Our results of the Hall conductivity show the different responses at these two different topological regions. Around the low Fermi energy level, the system has a high Hall conductivity in the QH region, while the same is less dominant in the QSH region. Our results of the Hall conductivity thus help differentiate the type topological phase of the given quantum well.

description: Annual redd counts are used to monitor the status and trends of salmonid populations, but methods to easily and reliably determine which of sympatric species made specific redds are lacking. We explored whether environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis might prove useful for assigning salmon redds to the species of origin. We collected eDNA samples from the interstitial spaces of redds constructed by Chinook Salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, redds constructed by Coho Salmon O. kisutch, and areas of undisturbed gravel (n = 10 of each type) as well as from the water column adjacent to each of those sites in the Sandy River basin, Oregon, during fall 2013. The concentrations of Chinook Salmon and Coho Salmon eDNA were quantified within each sample by using real-time PCR. The water in the interstitial spaces of redds contained significantly higher concentrations of eDNA from the species that made the redd than from the other species; concentrations of eDNA from the species that built the redd were also significantly higher in the redd than in the adjacent water column. In contrast, within samples of water from the interstitial spaces of undisturbed gravel, neither Chinook Salmon eDNA nor Coho Salmon eDNA was significantly more concentrated than the other. The interstitial water of undisturbed gravel contained significantly higher Coho Salmon eDNA concentrations than the adjacent water column. In contrast, Chinook Salmon eDNA concentrations in the interstitial water of undisturbed gravel and in the adjacent water column were similar. Both species’ redds had significantly higher concentrations of their respective eDNA than did undisturbed gravel, but conclusions were confounded by differences in the timing and locations of sampling. This initial investigation highlights the potential value and some of the complexities involved in using eDNA analysis to identify the species that constructed a given redd.

description: This paper investigates whether associations between birth weight and prenatal ambient environmental conditions--pollution and extreme temperatures--differ by 1) maternal education; 2) children's innate health; and 3) interactions between these two. We link birth records from Guangzhou, China, during a period of high pollution, to ambient air pollution (PM10 and a composite measure) and extreme temperature data. We first use mean regressions to test whether, overall, maternal education is an "effect modifier" in the relationships between ambient air pollution, extreme temperature, and birth weight. We then use conditional quantile regressions to test for effect heterogeneity according to the unobserved innate vulnerability of babies after conditioning on other confounders. Results show that 1) the negative association between ambient exposures and birth weight is twice as large at lower conditional quantiles of birth weights as at the median; 2) the protection associated with college-educated mothers with respect to pollution and extreme heat is heterogeneous and potentially substantial: between 0.02 and 0.34 standard deviations of birth weights, depending on the conditional quantiles; 3) this protection is amplified under more extreme ambient conditions and for infants with greater unobserved innate vulnerabilities.

description: Closed population models are commonly used to estimate stream salmonid abundances using mark–recapture information collected during electrofishing surveys. To meet the model assumption of geographic closure, block nets are often used to prevent emigration and immigration of fish during the survey. Increased sampling and tagging efforts in an open site may be an appealing trade-off given the time it takes to properly deploy block nets, but it also increases an abundance estimate’s vulnerability to bias. We assessed the extent of geographic closure violation from emigration in open sites between mark and recapture passes utilizing PIT antennas as virtual block nets. This allowed us to quantify emigration rates of juvenile steelhead Oncorhynchus mykiss from 60 fish surveys across multiple seasons and watersheds. Our goals were to determine how season and site length influence emigration, examine how the life history of an anadromous salmonid may induce bias on mark–recapture abundance estimates, and provide recommendations on minimizing the bias associated with violating the geographic closure assumption. Average emigration rate was low across all surveys and watersheds (5.1%), with higher emigration rates correlating with larger fish, shorter site length, and the season in which the site was sampled. We concluded that the bias associated with violating the geographic closure assumption in an open site can be minimized by avoiding times of migration and by sampling sites up to 650 m long depending on fish density and capture efficiency. Our findings provide useful information for planning mark–recapture studies that have multiple sampling objectives. Received July 27, 2016; accepted May 24, 2017Published online August 4, 2017
Generalised Ellis-Bronnikov Wormholes in $f(R)$ Gravity

description: In this manuscript, we construct generalized Ellis-Bronnikov wormholes in the context of $f(R)$ modified theories of gravity. We consider that the matter driving the wormhole satisfies the energy conditions so that it is the effective energy-momentum tensor containing the higher-order derivatives of curvature terms that violate the null energy condition. Thus, the gravitational fluid is interpreted by the higher-order derivatives of curvature terms to represent the wormhole geometries and is fundamentally different from its counter representation in general relativity. In particular, we explore the wormhole geometries by presuming various well-known forms of Lagrangian $f(R)$. In addition, for the seek of completeness, we discuss modified Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkov, volume integral quantifier, and total gravitational energy.

description: Validation of multivariate models is of current importance for a wide range of chemical applications. Although important, it is neglected. The common practice is to use a single external validation set for evaluation. This approach is deficient and may mislead investigators with results that are specific to the single validation set of data. In addition, no statistics are available regarding the precision of a derived figure of merit (FOM). A statistical approach using bootstrapped Latin partitions is advocated. This validation method makes an efficient use of the data because each object is used once for validation. It was reviewed a decade earlier but primarily for the optimization of chemometric models this review presents the reasons it should be used for generalized statistical validation. Average FOMs with confidence intervals are reported and powerful, matched-sample statistics may be applied for comparing models and methods. Examples demonstrate the problems with single validation sets.

description: In this study, we prepared small interfering RNA (siRNA)/cationic liposome complexes (lipoplexes) modified with folate (FA)-polyethylene glycol (PEG, MW 2000, 3400 or 5000)-1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphoethanolamine (DSPE) to facilitate their uptake into tumor cells via folate receptor (FR), and with PEG1600-cholesterol (PEG1600-Chol) or PEG2000-chondroitin sulfate conjugate (PEG2000-CS), to enhance their systemic stability. Among the FA-PEG-modified siRNA lipoplexes, 0.5 mol% FA-PEG5000-DSPE-modified lipoplexes with 2.5 mol% PEG2000-CS or PEG1600-Chol (LP-0.5F5/2.5P2-CS and LP-0.5F5/2.5P1.6-CL, respectively) exhibited selective growth inhibition of human nasopharyngeal carcinoma KB cells through transduction with polo-like kinase 1 (PLK1) siRNA. Furthermore, the LP-0.5F5/2.5P2-CS and LP-0.5F5/2.5P1.6-CL lipoplexes exhibited decreased agglutination with erythrocytes through PEGylation, and markedly decreased the accumulation of siRNA in murine lungs after systemic injection. Finally, systemic injection of LP-0.5F5/2.5P2-CS and LP-0.5F5/2.5P1.6-CL lipoplexes resulted in accumulation of siRNA in KB tumor xenografts. These findings suggest that PEGylation of FA-PEG5000-DSPE-modified siRNA lipoplexes with PEG2000-CS or PEG1600-Chol might improve their systemic stability without the loss of selective transfection activity in tumor cells.

description: The effect of microhydration on the simplest dicarboxylic acid, namely oxalic acid, leading to the dissociation of its proton, is studied using first principle-based electronic structure calculations. The geometry of the hydrated clusters of oxalic acid considering up to seven water molecules is determined at ωB97X-D/aug-cc-pVDZ level of theory. Solvent stabilisation and interaction energy parameters are calculated applying CCSD(T) level of theory. The calculated free energy of formation shows that the hydrated oxalic acid clusters are stable only at low temperature and pressure. Though the solvent stabilisation energy increases linearly with an increase in the size of the hydrated cluster, the calculated interaction energy, acidic O–H bond dipole moment and hydrogen bond energy show characteristic features of ion pair formation. The spectral manifestation of the weakening hydroxyl bond is observed as red shift in its stretching frequency. A rigid potential energy scan, altering the dissociating O–H bond length of the oxalic acid molecule, shows an energy barrier for acid to water proton transfer in all cases except hepta-hydrate of oxalic acid, where a barrier-less proton transfer occurs. The number of water molecules (n) needed for dissociation of oxalic acid molecule is consistent with the value obtained from recently reported emperical correlation between n and pKa.

description: Superconducting qubits utilize the strong non-linearity of the Josephson junctions. Control over the Josephson nonlinearity, either by a current bias or by the magnetic flux, can be a valuable resource that brings tunability in the hybrid system consisting of superconducting qubits. To enable such a control, here we incorporate a fast-flux line for a frequency tunable transmon qubit in 3D cavity architecture. We investigate the flux-dependent dynamic range, relaxation from unconfined states, and the bandwidth of the flux-line. Using time-domain measurements, we probe transmon's relaxation from higher energy levels after populating the cavity with $\approx 2.1\times10^4$ photons. For the device used in the experiment, we find a resurgence time corresponding to the recovery of coherence to be 4.8~$μ$s. We use a fast-flux line to tune the qubit frequency and demonstrate the swap of a single excitation between cavity and qubit mode. By measuring the deviation in the transferred population from the theoretical prediction, we estimate the bandwidth of the flux line to be $\approx$~100~MHz, limited by the parasitic effect in the design. These results suggest that the approach taken here to implement a fast-flux line in a 3D cavity could be helpful for the hybrid devices based on the superconducting qubit.

description: In the last years there has been a growing interest for nonlinear speech models. Several works have been published revealing the better performance of nonlinear techniques, but little attention has been dedicated to the implementation of the nonlinear model into real applications. This work is focused on the study of the behaviour of a combined linear/nonlinear predictive model based on linear predictive coding (LPC-10) and neural nets, in a speech waveform coder. Our novel scheme obtains an improvement in SEGSNR between 1 and 2.5 dB for an adaptive quantization ranging from 2 to 5 bits.

description: We study the collapse dynamics of a Bose-Einstein condensate subjected to a sudden change of the scattering length to a negative value by adopting the self-consistent Gaussian state theory for mixed states. Compared to the Gross-Pitaevskii and the Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov approaches, both fluctuations and three-body loss are properly treated in our theory. We find a new type of collapse assisted by fluctuations which amplify the attractive interaction between atoms. Moreover, the calculation of the fluctuated atoms, the entropy, and the second-order correlation function showed that the collapsed gas was significantly deviated from a pure state.

description: Abstract:Despite nearly 200 years of exploration, substantial gaps remain in our understanding of the diversity and distribution of the vascular plant flora of the Canadian Arctic, which comprises over one third of the global Arctic ecozone. Detailed information on the diversity and distribution of Arctic plants is urgently needed to understand the potential impacts of climate change on the region’s flora. Since 2008 we have been conducting detailed floristic surveys in botanically-understudied regions of the Canadian Arctic. The comprehensive baseline data of our >8000 new collections, all housed in the National Herbarium of Canada and other herbaria in Canada and internationally, adds important knowledge to our understanding of Arctic plant biodiversity. Many of our collections represent first records for specific areas, others represent the second or third collections of poorly-known species at the edge of their ranges in the Canadian Arctic, and many fill in gaps in the known distributions of Arctic species. We will summarize our floristic work to date in the context of current understanding of the Canadian Arctic flora, with a focus on our many particularly noteworthy discoveries.

description: Motor impairments caused by stroke significantly affect daily activities and reduce quality of life, highlighting the need for effective rehabilitation strategies. This study presents a novel approach to classifying motor tasks using EEG data from acute stroke patients, focusing on left-hand motor imagery, right-hand motor imagery, and rest states. By using advanced source localization techniques, such as Minimum Norm Estimation (MNE), dipole fitting, and beamforming, integrated with a customized Residual Convolutional Neural Network (ResNetCNN) architecture, we achieved superior spatial pattern recognition in EEG data. Our approach yielded classification accuracies of 91.03% with dipole fitting, 89.07% with MNE, and 87.17% with beamforming, markedly surpassing the 55.57% to 72.21% range of traditional sensor domain methods. These results highlight the efficacy of transitioning from sensor to source domain in capturing precise brain activity. The enhanced accuracy and reliability of our method hold significant potential for advancing brain–computer interfaces (BCIs) in neurorehabilitation. This study emphasizes the importance of using advanced EEG classification techniques to provide clinicians with precise tools for developing individualized therapy plans, potentially leading to substantial improvements in motor function recovery and overall patient outcomes. Future work will focus on integrating these techniques into practical BCI systems and assessing their long-term impact on stroke rehabilitation.

description: We performed the slitless spectroscopic survey to identify Classical (CBe) stars in open clusters older than 100 Myr. Observing a sample of 71 open clusters, we identified 13 CBe stars in 11 open clusters, one of, which (TYC 2679-432-1) is a new detection. The 13 CBe stars show both H$α$ in emission and IR excess, which confirm that they possess gaseous circumstellar discs. Two more CBe stars are found to exhibit H$α$ in absorption for the first time, indicating that might be passing through disc-less episode presently. The spectral type estimation is done for all these 15 stars and it is noticed that they belong to B0.5 -- B8 type. Moreover, we found that the distribution of our sample is peaking near late B-types as expected.

description: The Neptunian desert and savanna have been recently found to be separated by a ridge, an overdensity of planets in the ≃3-5 days period range. These features are thought to be shaped by dynamical and atmospheric processes. However, their relative roles are not yet well understood. We intend to confirm and characterise the super-Neptune TESS candidate TOI-5005.01, which orbits a moderately bright (V = 11.8) solar-type star (G2 V) with an orbital period of 6.3 days. We confirm TOI-5005 b to be a transiting super-Neptune with a radius of Rₚ = 6.25 ± 0.24 R⊕ (Rₚ = 0.558 ± 0.021 Rⱼ) and a mass of Mₚ = 32.7 ± 5.9 M⊕ (Mₚ = 0.103 ± 0.018 Mⱼ), which corresponds to a mean density of ρₚ = $0.74 ± 0.16 g cm⁻³. Our internal structure modelling indicates that the overall metal mass fraction is well constrained to a value slightly lower than that of Neptune and Uranus (Zₚₗₐₙₑₜ = 0.76⁺⁰.⁰⁴₋₀.₁₁). We also estimated the present-day atmospheric mass-loss rate of TOI-5005 b but found contrasting predictions depending on the choice of photoevaporation model. At a population level, we find statistical evidence (p-value = 0.0092⁺⁰.⁰¹⁸⁴₋₀.₀₀₆₆) that planets in the savanna such as TOI-5005 b tend to show lower densities than planets in the ridge, with a dividing line around 1 g cm⁻³, which supports the hypothesis of different evolutionary pathways populating both regimes. TOI-5005 b is located in a key region of the period-radius space to study the transition between the Neptunian ridge and the savanna. It orbits the brightest star of all such planets, which makes it a target of interest for atmospheric and orbital architecture observations that will bring a clearer picture of its overall evolution.

However, the lack of training in visual search in medicine put the success of POCUS at risk. The medical community requires standardized training. An attempt at that is shown in the presented study. Medical students (n = 14) who conducted an oral presentation as a passive learning method, followed by a computer-based training as an active learning method could increase their proportion of correct responses for ultrasound images of the gallbladder significantly compared to students who only conducted the passive learning method (n = 16) or no training at all (n = 16). Participants also mentioned their interest in an online training tool for their own universities. The successful application of POCUS would increase patient safety and lowers medical costs, but sufficient training is needed to fulfill these advantages.

description: The Messenger Interface Monte-Carlo Mappings V (M^3) is a photoionization code adopting the fully self-consistent Monte-Carlo radiative transfer technique, which presents a major advance over previous photoionization models with simple geometries. M^3 is designed for modeling nebulae in arbitrary three-dimensional geometries. In this paper, we describe the Monte-Carlo radiative transfer technique and the microphysics implemented in M^3, including the photoionization, collisional ionization, the free-free and free-bound recombination, and two-photon radiation. We put M^3 through the Lexington/Meudon benchmarks to test the reliability of the new code. We apply M^3 to three HII region models with fiducial geometries, demonstrating that M^3 is capable of dealing with nebulae with complex geometries. M^3 is a promising tool for understanding emission-line behavior in the era of SDSS-V/LVM and JWST, which will provide high-quality data of spatially-resolved nearby HII regions and highly turbulent local and high-redshift HII regions.

description: Many chemical transport models treat mineral dust as spherical. Solar backscatter retrievals of trace gases (e.g., OMI and TROPOMI) implicitly treat mineral dust as spherical. The impact of the morphology of mineral dust particles is studied to assess its implications for global chemical transport model (GEOS-Chem) simulations and solar backscatter trace gas retrievals at ultraviolet and visible (UV-Vis) wavelengths. We investigate how the morphology of mineral dust particles affects the simulated dust aerosol optical depth; surface area, reaction, and diffusion parameters for heterogeneous chemistry; phase function, and scattering weights for air mass factor (AMF) calculations used in solar backscatter retrievals. We use a mixture of various aspect ratios of spheroids to model the dust optical properties and a combination of shape and porosity to model the surface area, reaction, and diffusion parameters. We find that assuming spherical particles can introduce size-dependent and wavelength-dependent errors of up to 14% in simulated dust extinction efficiency with corresponding error in simulated dust optical depth typically within 5%. We find that use of spheroids rather than spheres increases forward scattered radiance and decreases backward scattering that in turn decrease the sensitivity of solar backscatter retrievals of NO₂ to aerosols by factors of 2.0–2.5. We develop and apply a theoretical framework based on porosity and surface fractal dimension with corresponding increase in the reactive uptake coefficient driven by increased surface area and species reactivity. Differences are large enough to warrant consideration of dust non-sphericity for chemical transport models and UV-Vis trace gas retrievals.

description: Increasing geographical and cultural diversity in research participation has been a key priority for psychological researchers. In this article, we track changes in participant diversity in developmental science over the past decade. These analyses reveal surprisingly modest shifts in global diversity of research participants over time, calling into question the generalizability of our empirical foundation. We provide examples from the study of early child development of the significant epistemic and ethical costs of a lack of geographical and cultural diversity to demonstrate why greater diversification is essential to a generalizable science of human development. We also discuss strategies for diversification that could be implemented throughout the research ecosystem in the service of a culturally anchored, generalizable, and replicable science.

description: We present an application of computational inverse design, which reverses the conventional trial-and-error forward design paradigm, optimizes biological phenotype by directly modifying genotype. The limitations of inverse design in genotype-to-bulk phenotype (G-BP) mapping can be addressed via an established design paradigm: “design, build, test, learn” (DBTL), where computational inverse design automates both the design and learn phases. In any context, inverse design is limited by the fundamental “one-to-many” nature of the inverse function. G-BP inverse design is further limited by the number of single nucleotide polymorphisms that can be made to a member of the population while maintaining feasibility of genotype creation and biological viability. Considering these limitations, we propose a design paradigm based on incremental optimization of phenotype through a combined computational and experimental approach. We intend this work to be a foundational synthesis of well-known techniques applied to the context of genotype-to-bulk phenotype inverse design, which has not yet been performed in the literature. The design pipeline can optimize phenotype by either directly proposing genotypic changes, or simply by suggesting parents to be used for selective breeding. The soybean nested association matrix data set is used to present an in silico case study of the design pipeline by performing optimization that maximizes protein content while constraining other phenotypes. A random forest (RF) is used to model the genotype-to-phenotype relationship, and a genetic algorithm is used to query the RF until a feasible genotype with desired phenotype is discovered. After 20 in silico DBTL cycles, a final population of individuals with a mean protein content of 36.13%, an increase of three standard deviations above the original mean is suggested.

description: Introduction: Many trials have been published comparing inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) treatments in asthma. However, mixed results necessitate the summarization of available evidence to aid in decision-making. Areas covered: This systematic review evaluated randomized controlled trials (RCTs) that compared the efficacy and safety of inhaled fluticasone propionate (FP) with other ICS including beclomethasone dipropionate (BDP), budesonide (BUD) and ciclesonide (CIC). PubMed was searched and 54 RCTs that fit pre-determined criteria were included. Endpoints evaluated included lung function, asthma symptom control, exacerbation frequency, reliever use, quality of life and steroid-related side effects. Expert commentary: Across all studies, FP was associated with either more favorable or at least similar efficacy and safety, in comparison with BDP or BUD. This observation may be related to FP’s higher relative potency and almost negligible oral bioavailability. FP was comparable to CIC for efficacy. However, CIC appeared to have a smaller impact on cortisol levels than FP, which is likely due to CIC’s incomplete conversion to active metabolite (des-CIC) and the lower potency of des-CIC compared with FP. Although there were no significant differences in evaluated outcomes after treatment with different ICS in the majority of studies, some observed differences could be explained by their respective pharmacodynamic and pharmacokinetic properties.

description: We present local time-series of the magnetic field gradient tensor elements at satellite altitude derived using a Geomagnetic Virtual Observatory (GVO) approach. Gradient element timeseries are computed in 4-monthly bins on an approximately equal-area distributed worldwide network. This enables global investigations of spatio temporal variations in the gradient tensor elements. Series are derived from data collected by the Swarm and CHAMP satellite missions, using vector field measurements and their along-track and east-west differences, when available. We find evidence for a regional secular variation impulse (jerk) event in 2017 in the first time derivative of the gradient tensor elements. This event is located at low latitudes in the Pacific region. It has a similar profile and amplitude regardless of the adopted data selection criteria and is well fit by an internal potential field. Spherical harmonic models of the internal magnetic field built from the GVO gradient series show lower scatter in near-zonal harmonics compared with models built using standard GVO vector field series. The GVO gradient element series are an effective means of compressing the spatio temporal information gathered by low-Earth orbit satellites on geomagnetic field variations, which may prove useful for core flow inversions and in geodynamo data assimilation studies.
