description: We combined hydrodynamical simulations of planet-disk interactions with dust evolution models that include coagulation and fragmentation of dust grains over a large range of radii and derived observational properties using radiative transfer calculations. We studied the role of the snow line in the survival of the inner disk of transition disks. Inside the snow line, the lack of ice mantles in dust particles decreases the sticking efficiency between grains. As a consequence, particles fragment at lower collision velocities than in regions beyond the snow line. This effect allows small particles to be maintained for up to a few Myrs within the first astronomical unit. These particles are closely coupled to the gas and do not drift significantly with respect to the gas. For lower mass planets (1$M_{\rm{Jup}}$), the pre-transition appearance can be maintained even longer because dust still trickles through the gap created by the planet, moves invisibly and quickly in the form of relatively large grains through the gap, and becomes visible again as it fragments and gets slowed down inside of the snow line. The global study of dust evolution of a disk with an embedded planet, including the changes of the dust aerodynamics near the snow line, can explain the concentration of millimetre-sized particles in the outer disk and the survival of the dust in the inner disk if a large dust trap is present in the outer disk. This behaviour solves the conundrum of the combination of both near-infrared excess and ring-like millimetre emission observed in several transition disks.

description: Aims. Numerical test-particle simulations are a reliable and frequently used tool to test analytical transport theories and to predict mean-free paths. The comparison between solutions of the diffusion equation and the particle flux is used to critically judge the applicability of diffusion to the stochastic transport of energetic particles in magnetized turbulence. Methods. A Monte-Carlo simulation code is extended to allow for the generation of intensity profiles as well as anisotropy-time profiles. Due to the relatively low number density of computational particles, a kernel function has to be used to describe the spatial extent of each particle. Results. The obtained intensity profiles are interpreted as solutions of the diffusion equation by inserting the diffusion coefficients that have been directly determined from the mean-square displacements. The comparison shows that the time dependence of the diffusion coefficients needs to be considered, in particular the initial ballistic phase and the often sub-diffusive perpendicular coefficient. Conclusions. It is argued that the perpendicular component of the distribution function is essential if agreement between the diffusion solution and the simulated flux is to be obtained. In addition, time-dependent diffusion can provide a better description than the classic diffusion equation only after the initial ballistic phase.

description: Modal inclusion logic is the extension of basic modal logic with inclusion atoms, and its semantics is defined on Kripke models with teams. A team of a Kripke model is just a subset of its domain. In this paper we give a complete characterisation for the expressive power of modal inclusion logic: a class of Kripke models with teams is definable in modal inclusion logic if and only if it is closed under k-bisimulation for some integer k, it is closed under unions, and it has the empty team property. We also prove that the same expressive power can be obtained by adding a single unary nonemptiness operator to modal logic. Furthermore, we establish an exponential lower bound for the size of the translation from modal inclusion logic to modal logic with the nonemptiness operator.

description: General formulas are derived for the quasiparticle effective mass and the equation of state of the Fermi system with account of the interparticle attraction at long distances and repulsion at short distances. Calculations are carried out of the equation of state and the effective mass of the Fermi system at zero temperature with the use of the modified Morse potential. It is shown that the pair repulsive forces promote a decrease of the effective mass, and the attractive forces promote its increase. With a certain choice of the parameters of the potential the dependence of the pressure on the density has a nonmonotonic character, which enables to describe the coexistence of the liquid and gaseous phases. The influence of three-body interactions on the equation of state and the effective mass is considered. The calculation results are compared with experimental data concerning the quasiparticle effective mass in the liquid $^3$He. Key words: normal Fermi liquid, effective mass, quasiparticle, equation of state, interaction potential

description: Two-player quantitative zero-sum games provide a natural framework to synthesize controllers with performance guarantees for reactive systems within an uncontrollable environment. Classical settings include mean-payoff games, where the objective is to optimize the long-run average gain per action, and energy games, where the system has to avoid running out of energy. We study average-energy games, where the goal is to optimize the long-run average of the accumulated energy. We show that this objective arises naturally in several applications, and that it yields interesting connections with previous concepts in the literature. We prove that deciding the winner in such games is in NP inter coNP and at least as hard as solving mean-payoff games, and we establish that memoryless strategies suffice to win. We also consider the case where the system has to minimize the average-energy while maintaining the accumulated energy within predefined bounds at all times: this corresponds to operating with a finite-capacity storage for energy. We give results for one-player and two-player games, and establish complexity bounds and memory requirements.

Below we describe our primary and secondary objectives and hypotheses. Primary Objective. We will examine the frequency of TRR/PP from 2015/16 to 2021 to determine whether there is an increase in reported use of TRR/PP over time. HO: There is no increase in the reporting of TRR/PP use in Cochrane systematic reviews of interventions published from 2015 to 2021. HA: There is an increase in reporting of TRR/PP use in Cochrane systematic reviews of interventions published from 2015 to 2021. Secondary Objective: We will examine the impact of four characteristics of the reviews on reporting of TRR/PP in three sections of the review: methods, results, and other (i.e., reported use that is not in Methods or Results, such as Discussion). The characteristics are: type of intervention (pharmacological vs non--pharmacological), number of included RCTs, number of TRR/PP found or used in the review, and number of trial registries searched. HO: The characteristic is not related to a reporting of TRR/PP use in Cochrane systematic reviews of interventions published from 2015 to 2021. HA: The characteristics are related to reporting of TRR/PP use in Cochrane systematic reviews of interventions published from 2015 to 2021.

Race, social class, and parental involvement with children's cognitive development

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2008

description: In addressing reproduction of inequality across generations, social scientists often focus on parental involvement with children's schooling and cognitive stimulation in the home. Drawing on data from the Panel Study of Income Dynamics' Childhood Development Supplement, we employ structural equation modeling to address how parental involvement differs by social class and race. Findings indicate (1) race and social class have independent additive effects on involvement. Middle-class parents are more involved than working-class parents, who, in turn, report greater involvement than poor parents, while Black parents are less involved than White parents. (2) With increasing social class, White parents are more involved; however, class effects do not exist for Blacks, who are less involved at all class levels. Conclusions and implications for social policy are considered.

Genomic Technologies for Biomarker Discovery
Creators: name: Gellar, Dianna
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: Biomarkers can be classified into two major groups, disease-related and drug-related biomarkers. Disease-related biomarkers are very helpful for clinical stratification, identification of patients within the general population, disease staging, and evaluation of the likely outcome of disease. In contrast,drug-related biomarkers are biological or clinical characteristics that provide valuable information on prognosis and survival after therapeutic intervention. Such predictive factors can be employed to identify subgroups of patients who are most likely to respond to a given treatment, to create a treatment plan, and to assess the efficacy, adverse reactions, and complications of therapy. An ideal biomarker should be easily, specifically, stably, and inexpensively measured in a noninvasive or minimally invasive way with high analytical specificity and sensitivity.
Self-reference in Caravaggio's Calling of St. Matthew
Creators: name: Culler, Matthew B.
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2007

description: Among Caravaggio’s most critically successful commissions, the Contarelli Chapel’s Calling of St. Matthew was also his first major, public, religious historia, and a turning point in the artist’s stylistic progression. Caravaggio’s Calling of St. Matthew is a highly self-referential painting, a demonstration piece in the fullest sense, and yet, scholarship has not considered the canvas as a statement about “painting,” aside from noting its explicit reference to Michelangelo’s Sistine Creation of Adam. This paper interprets the Calling as a painting about “painting,” drawing attention to the prominent window, Caravaggio’s use of light and color, and other formal aspects. It situates the Calling’s self-reference in relation to contemporary criticism and biographies of the artist, positing the painting as an “artist-in-his-studio” picture and exploring the Calling’s interaction with its facing pendant, the Martyrdom of St. Matthew.
Parameterized Linear Temporal Logics Meet Costs: Still not Costlier than LTL

Subjects: subject: Logic in Computer Science (cs.LO)

description: We continue the investigation of parameterized extensions of Linear Temporal Logic (LTL) that retain the attractive algorithmic properties of LTL: a polynomial space model checking algorithm and a doubly-exponential time algorithm for solving games. Alur et al. and Kupferman et al. showed that this is the case for Parametric LTL (PLTL) and PROMPT-LTL respectively, which have temporal operators equipped with variables that bound their scope in time. Later, this was also shown to be true for Parametric LDL (PLDL), which extends PLTL to be able to express all omega-regular properties. Here, we generalize PLTL to systems with costs, i.e., we do not bound the scope of operators in time, but bound the scope in terms of the cost accumulated during time. Again, we show that model checking and solving games for specifications in PLTL with costs is not harder than the corresponding problems for LTL. Finally, we discuss PLDL with costs and extensions to multiple cost functions.

Language, identity, and literary expression in Algeria
Creators: name: Briggs, Carina Lynn
Publisher: name: University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill
Year: 2010

description: This work examines the failure of linguistic-nationalism in Algeria through a policy of Arabization after Algerian independence. While French linguistic-nationalism has been successful in France and was successful in French Algeria, Algerian linguistic-nationalism has failed for a number of reasons. There are, however, many advantages to a multilingual-nationalism in Algeria and it is quite possible for a country to be multilingual, unified, and culturally rich and, in some cases, economically rich. This work also examines the relationship between the choice of written and spoken languages, employing Kateb Yacine and Assia Djebar as examples, and the institution of national languages to contest linguistic-nationalism in Algeria. After independence, writers openly supported and wrote in French and Berber to fight Arabization, which created violence between politico-linguistic groups and internal dilemmas for Francophone writers. Jacques Derrida and Rda Bensmaa offer solutions for these internal dilemmas, which further demonstrate the possibility of a multilingual Algeria.

Subjects: subject: Logic in Computer Science (cs.LO)

description: Small Progress Measures is one of the classical parity game solving algorithms. For games with n vertices, m edges and d different priorities, the original algorithm computes the winning regions and a winning strategy for one of the players in O(dm.(n/floor(d/2))^floor(d/2)) time. Computing a winning strategy for the other player requires a re-run of the algorithm on that player's winning region, thus increasing the runtime complexity to O(dm.(n/ceil(d/2))^ceil(d/2)) for computing the winning regions and winning strategies for both players. We modify the algorithm so that it derives the winning strategy for both players in one pass. This reduces the upper bound on strategy derivation for SPM to O(dm.(n/floor(d/2))^floor(d/2)). At the basis of our modification is a novel operational interpretation of the least progress measure that we provide.

The Broad Prospects of Exosome Transcriptome Research
Creators: name: Gellar, Dianna
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: Exosomes are derived from the endosomal system, and the molecular mechanisms of biogenesis include ESCRT-dependent and independent biogenesis processes. It has been found that certain exosomes are highly enriched in RNA and are involved in initiating the process of exosome biosynthesis, release, and uptake. In some cases, exosomes are transported to more distant sites even if neighbouring cells can interact with or utilize them. Therefore, it is necessary to analyze the differences in exosomal RNA content to study vari.ous mechanisms involved in exosome biogenesis and uptake.

Lett. 111, 023004) to a single ion laser-cooled in a micro fabricated surface trap. The branching fraction for the decay into the 5s 2 S 1/2 ground level was found to be p = 0.9453 +0.0007 --0.0005. This result is in good agreement with recent theoretical calculations but disagrees with previous experimental measurements, however affected by a one order of magnitude larger uncertainty. This experiment also demonstrates the reliability and the performances of ion micro trap technology in the domain of precision measurements and spectroscopy.

description: Alternating-time temporal logic with strategy contexts (ATLsc) is a powerful formalism for expressing properties of multi-agent systems: it extends CTL with strategy quantifiers, offering a convenient way of expressing both collaboration and antagonism between several agents. Incomplete observation of the state space is a desirable feature in such a framework, but it quickly leads to undecidable verification problems. In this paper, we prove that uniform incomplete observation (where all players have the same observation) preserves decidability of the model-checking problem, even for very expressive logics such as ATLsc.

An Automata Theoretic Approach to the Zero-One Law for Regular Languages: Algorithmic and Logical Aspects
Creators: name: Sin'ya, Ryoma
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Formal Languages and Automata Theory (cs.FL)

subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: A zero-one language L is a regular language whose asymptotic probability converges to either zero or one. In this case, we say that L obeys the zero-one law. We prove that a regular language obeys the zero-one law if and only if its syntactic monoid has a zero element, by means of Eilenberg's variety theoretic approach. Our proof gives an effective automata characterisation of the zero-one law for regular languages, and it leads to a linear time algorithm for testing whether a given regular language is zero-one. In addition, we discuss the logical aspects of the zero-one law for regular languages.

Evaluation of a New Biomimetic Cement (GEMOSIL) for Use in Endodontic Therapy as Compared to the Widely-Used Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA)
Creators: name: Chen, Hsin

Subjects: subject: Dentistry
subject: FOS: Clinical medicine

description: Mineral trioxide aggregate (MTA) is an effective material for endodontic therapy. However, due to its long setting time and dentinal/gingival discoloration, its use is limited. The objective of this study was to test the hypothesis that a new biomimetic cement, GEMOSIL, has physical/biological properties comparable to MTA in endodontic therapy. Samples of GEMOSIL were used to measure compressive and biaxial flexure strength with an Instron machine. GEMOSIL and MTA were placed in pulp chambers of extracted human teeth for discoloration testing. GEMOSIL and MTA were spin coated to 35 mm culture dishes, which were then seeded with pulp cells for viability testing. Zones of inhibition against S. Mutans and  E. Faecalis were measured with both materials. GEMOSIL and MTA were also placed as a root-end filling material in rat incisors to assess biocompatibility with living tissues. The compressive strength of GEMOSIL reached 28 MPa after 2 hours of immersion in PBS and 93 MPa after fully dried. Flexure strength ultimately reached 59 MPa. GEMOSIL demonstrated less discoloration when placed in pulp chambers of extracted teeth than MTA (p<0.05). GEMOSIL presented no cytotoxicity and promoted significantly more proliferation than MTA when in contact with pulp cells (p<0.05). S. Mutans was susceptible to both GEMOSIL and MTA, but  E. Faecalis was only susceptible to GEMOSILCHX. Both materials showed biocompatibility as a retro-grade filling material in rats (p>0.05). In conclusion, GEMOSIL has similar or better physical and biological properties as compared to MTA; thus GEMOSIL has potential to be a viable endodontic cement.

Binary mixtures of rod-like colloids under shear: microscopically-based equilibrium theory and order--parameter dynamics
Creators: name: Lugo-Frias, Rodrigo
name: Klapp, Sabine H. L.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Soft Condensed Matter (cond-mat.soft)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: This paper is concerned with the dynamics of a binary mixture of rod--like, repulsive colloidal particles driven out of equilibrium by means of a steady shear flow (Couette geometry). To this end we first derive, starting from a microscopic density functional in Parsons--Lee approximation, a mesoscopic free energy functional whose main variables are the orientational order parameter tensors. Based on this mesoscopic functional we then explore the stability of isotropic and nematic equilibrium phases in terms of composition and rod lengths. Second, by combining the equilibrium theory with the Doi--Hess approach for the order parameter dynamics under shear, we investigate the orientational dynamics of binary mixtures for a range of shear rates and coupling parameters. We find a variety of dynamical states, including synchronized oscillatory states of the two components, but also symmetry breaking behavior where the components display different in--plane oscillatory states.

Replication package for article 'Timeout Prediction for Software Analyses'

description: Abstract: Software verification tools automatically prove the correctness of programs with respect to user supplied specifications. Today, such tools implement a range of different types of analyses. As different analyses are good at different sorts of verification tasks, state-of-the-art tools often employ sequential compositions in which every analysis gets a fixed time slot assigned for verification. As a consequence, however, one analysis might consume parts of the overall available time although it does not finish within its time slot. In this paper, we propose timeout prediction as a way to determine when an analysis should get its full time slot and when to prematurely stop it. Our technique for timeout prediction employs machine learning to predict whether a given analysis will terminate on a given verification task (within a time limit) or will time out. To this end, we develop static as well as dynamic features of verification tasks and analyses. Values of static features can be statically determined for tasks; dynamic features are determined while an analyses is already running. Our experimental evaluation shows that we can predict timeouts with a high accuracy.

description: We report our studies on an intense source of cold cesium atoms based on a two-dimensional magneto-optical trap with independent axial cooling and pushing. The new-designed source, proposed as 2D-HP MOT, uses hollow laser beams for axial cooling and a thin pushing laser beam for cold atomic beam extraction. Regulated independently by the pushing beam, the atomic flux can be substantially optimized. The atomic flux maximum obtained in the 2D-HP MOT is $4.02\times 10^{10}$ atoms/s, increased by 60 percent compared to the traditional 2D$^+$ MOT in our experiment. Moreover, with the pushing power 10 $μ$W and detuning $0Γ$, the 2D-HP MOT can generate a rather intense cold cesium atomic beam with the concomitant light shift suppressed by 20 times in magnitude. The axial velocity distribution of the cold cesium beams centers at 6.8 m/s with a FMHW of about 2.8 m/s. The dependences of the atomic flux on the pushing power and detuning are studied. The experimental results are in good agreement with the theoretical model.
