description: With the support of national policy of building Yunnan into a gateway in China’s opening up to the Southwest, Yunnan Province offered the great opportunity for second time of starting an undertaking for tourism, and the landscape agriculture welcomes a new development opportunity. On the basis of regional natural and cultural resources, Yunnan Province has created diversified agricultural operating types and colorful farming culture. Thus, it has significant comparative advantage in developing the landscape agriculture, but it should avoid homogeneous competition in construction methods. The landscape agriculture of Yunnan Province should set foot on special features of rural landscape, stick to its “local characteristics”, raise core competitiveness of characteristic landscape, and take the ecological and characteristic development road.

description: Solid lipid nanoparticles (SLN) have been widely used in a variety of drug delivery routes, which have the outstanding advantage of controlled drug release. The release of SLN is dominated by many factors, among which the particle size of SLN is a critical one. The aim of this project was to explore the relationship between drug release profile and particle size of SLN. SLN were synthesized via the hot high-pressure homogenization (HPH) method, budesonide (BUD) was used as the model drug, and BUD-SLN1–BUD-SLN4 with increasing particle size was obtained, i.e. 120, 240, 360, and 480 nm. The prepared SLN has good encapsulation efficiency, drug loading capacity, and stability. In vitro release behavior studies showed that the cumulative release of BUD-SLN in Tris-Maleate (Tris-M) media was negligible, while that in Tris-M plus pancreatin media or Tris-M-ethanol media obeyed Ritger-Peppas model or first-order kinetic model, respectively. Noticeably, the release behavior of SLN was to some extent related to the average particle size of SLN, but the correlation was insignificant when the intersection degree of particle size distribution was great. This study provides a new idea for the understanding of in vitro release of SLN and has a certain referencing value for the research and development of novel nanomedicines.

Transatlantic Italy and Anglo-American Periodical Writing, 1848-1865

description: This is a thesis about English and American imaginative identification with Italy in the period 1848–1865, facilitated by and expressed through periodicals and newspapers. At the centre of the thesis sits New England magazine The Atlantic Monthly, which during the Civil War emerged as a vehicle for abolitionist literature, but which also published extensively on Italy. The Risorgimento, the movement that sought Italian unification, triumphed in 1861—the same year that the battle of Fort Sumter signalled the start of the American Civil War that would last until 1865. This thesis investigates the transatlantic relationship between the Risorgimento and the Civil War as it emerged in The Atlantic Monthly, The Springfield Daily Republican and other nineteenth–century publications, and it does so through contextualised readings of Arthur Hugh Clough, Harriet Beecher Stowe, and Emily Dickinson. These three seemingly very disparate authors are connected by The Atlantic Monthly: Clough’s epistolary poem on the fall of the 1849 Roman Republic, Amours de Voyage, was first published there in 1858; Harriet Beecher Stowe serialised her historical Italian romance Agnes of Sorrento in The Atlantic Monthly between 1861 and 1862; and Dickinson was inspired to write a series of poems on Italy and volcanoes after reading both The Atlantic Monthly and local morning newspaper The Springfield Daily Republican. They are also connected by their fascination with Italy. This thesis argues that nineteenth–century periodicals need to be studied in a transatlantic context: they cannot be read, in the traditional style of Benedict Anderson, as simple affirmations of nationalism and national culture. Another way of putting it is to say that this thesis is about a series of exchanges of influence and thought that get attached to national projects but are in themselves international.

From Boundary Data to Bound States II: Scattering Angle to Dynamical Invariants (with Twist)

description: We recently introduced in [1910.03008] a "boundary-to-bound" dictionary between gravitational scattering data and observables for bound states of non-spinning bodies. In this paper, we elaborate further on this (holographic) map. We start by deriving the following -- remarkably simple -- formula relating the periastron advance to the scattering angle: $ΔΦ(J,{\cal E}) =χ(J,{\cal E}) + χ(-J,{\cal E})$, via analytic continuation in angular momentum and binding energy. Using explicit expressions from [1910.03008], we confirm its validity to all orders in the Post-Minkowskian (PM) expansion. Furthermore, we reconstruct the radial action for the bound state directly from the knowledge of the scattering angle. The radial action enables us to write compact expressions for dynamical invariants in terms of the deflection angle to all PM orders, which can also be written as a function of the PM-expanded amplitude. As an example, we reproduce our result in [1910.03008] for the periastron advance, and compute the radial and azimuthal frequencies and redshift variable to two-loops. Agreement is found in the overlap between PM and Post-Newtonian (PN) schemes. Last but not least, we initiate the study of our dictionary including spin. We demonstrate that the same relation between deflection angle and periastron advance applies for aligned-spin contributions, with $J$ the (canonical) total angular momentum. Explicit checks are performed to display perfect agreement using state-of-the-art PN results in the literature. Using the map between test- and two-body dynamics, we also compute the periastron advance up to quadratic order in the spin, to one-loop and to all orders in velocity. We conclude with a discussion on the generalized "impetus formula" for spinning bodies and black holes as "elementary particles".

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

Properties of Entanglement Monotones for Three-Qubit Pure States

description: Various parameterizations for the orbits under local unitary transformations of three-qubit pure states are analyzed. The interconvertibility, symmetry properties, parameter ranges, calculability and behavior under measurement are looked at. It is shown that the entanglement monotones of any multipartite pure state uniquely determine the orbit of that state under local unitary transformations. It follows that there must be an entanglement monotone for three-qubit pure states which depends on the Kempe invariant defined in [Phys. Rev. A 60, 910 (1999)]. A form for such an entanglement monotone is proposed. A theorem is proved that significantly reduces the number of entanglement monotones that must be looked at to find the maximal probability of transforming one multipartite state to another.

description: New dilaton Weyl multiplets are constructed in four and five space-time dimensions for $N=4$ and $N=2$ conformal supergravity respectively. They are constructed from a mixture of the old dilaton weyl multiplets with an on-shell vector multiplet. The old dilaton Weyl multiplets have a $USp(4)$ R-symmetry group whereas the new multiplets have $SU(2)\times SU(2)$ R-symmetry, which is a subgroup of $USp(4)$. In six dimensions, for the first time we construct a dilaton Weyl multiplet for $(2,0)$ conformal supergravity from a mixture of the standard Weyl multiplet and a tensor multiplet. The R-symmetry group for the dilaton Weyl multiplet in six dimensions is also $SU(2)\times SU(2)$.

The Dissemination and Reception of the Ordines Romani in the Carolingian Church, c.750-900

description: The ordines romani are products of a ninth-century attempt to correct liturgy across Europe. Hitherto, scholarship has almost exclusively focused on them as sources for the practices of the city of Rome, narrowly defined, disregarding how they were received creatively and reinterpreted in a set of fascinating manuscripts which do not easily fit into traditional categories. This thesis re-envisages these special texts as valuable testimonies of intent and principle. In the past few decades of scholarship, it has been made very clear that what occurred under the Carolingians in the liturgy did not involve the imposition of the Roman rite from above. What was ‘Roman’ and ‘correct’ was decided by individuals, each in their own case, and they created and edited texts for what they needed. These individuals were part of intensive networks of exchange, and, broadly, they agreed on what they were attempting to accomplish. Nevertheless, depending on their own formation, and the atmosphere of their diocese, the same ritual content could be interpreted in numerous different ways. Ultimately, this thesis aims to demonstrate the usefulness of applying new techniques of assessing liturgical manuscripts, as total witnesses whose texts interpret each other, to the ninth century. Each of the ordo romanus manuscripts of the ninth century preserves a fascinating glimpse into the process of working out what ‘correct’ liturgy looked like, by people intensely invested in that proposition. Through them, we can reconceptualise the Carolingian achievement in liturgy, more sympathetically to the great diversity on the ground, but also to the broader goals which united all of these celebrants and intellectuals. In these texts, we can see how the Carolingians really understood the Roman practices they revered, and how they brought this special holiness to their own cathedrals and monasteries through richly creative re-enactment, not thoughtless replication.

description: We have studied a mosaic of 1T-CrSe$_2$ single crystals using $β$-detected nuclear magnetic resonance of $^{8}$Li from 4 to 300 K. We identify two broad resonances that show no evidence of quadrupolar splitting, indicating two magnetically distinct environments for the implanted ion. We observe stretched exponential spin lattice relaxation and a corresponding rate ($1/T_1$) that increases monotonically above 200 K, consistent with the onset of ionic diffusion. A pronounced maximum in $1/T_1$ is observed at the low temperature magnetic transition near 20 K. Between these limits, $1/T_1$ instead exhibits a broad minimum with a remarkable absence of strong features in the vicinity of structural and magnetic transitions between 150 and 200 K. Together, the results suggest $^{8}$Li$^{+}$ site occupation within the van der Waals gap between CrSe$_2$ trilayers. Possible origins of the two environments are discussed.

description: In recent years it has become apparent that neuronal development and function relies not just on the regulation of transcription but also on post-transcriptional events. Two prevalent mRNA-based regulatory mechanisms in neurons are asymmetric mRNA localisation and the generation of different 3’UTR isoforms by alternative polyadenylation (APA). While experiments in mammalian systems indicate that subcellular mRNA localisation plays an important role in regulating local expression of proteins in neuronal processes, little is known about how mRNAs reach their destinations. It has been proposed that APA allows the production of mRNA isoforms with different roles. However, the importance of 3’UTR extensions has not been addressed in detail, particularly at the organismal level. In my PhD, I investigated the mechanisms of mRNA localisation and functional consequences of APA using the Drosophila embryonic nervous system as a genetically tractable model. I screened for mRNAs that localise in embryonic axons using an available transgenic library of 3’UTR sequences, as well as publically available in situ hybridisation data. I found that Ankyrin2 (Ank2) mRNA localises in Drosophila embryonic sensory neurons, and showed that this is dependent on the kinesin-1 motor and microtubules. These data reveal an active mRNA transport system in embryonic neurons. I also showed that the Ank2 mRNA has an extended 3’UTR that is found in axons, suggesting that APA could be relevant to axonal functions of Ank2. I demonstrated that while mRNA molecules could still localise to axons upon CRISPR-Cas9-mediated deletion of the Ank2 3’UTR extension, a fraction of the mutant embryos had a disrupted nervous system. Interestingly, embryos that lack the ability to make Ank2 protein have an overtly normal embryonic nervous system. This observation reveals that the extension does not simply promote Ank2 protein function. Further experiments revealed that the extended 3’UTR is required for efficient locomotion of adult flies. While the exact function of the Ank2 3’UTR extension requires future investigation, I show that it is unlikely to be associated with the trafficking of associated proteins into axons. RNA affinity purifications from embryonic extracts provide evidence that the 3’UTR extension selectively binds conserved RNA-binding proteins. I speculate that the extension plays a role in regulating axonal morphogenesis by regulating the relative expression level of different Ank2 protein isoforms.

description: In modern world medicine, cerebrovascular diseases are one of the most pressing problems of modern neu�rology, given the high prevalence of this pathology in the population. In modern scientific works, the restorative treatment of post-stroke patients is widely used the method of combined neuroprotection. This approach is in our view the most effective and safe in the restorative treatment of patients. In our study, we prioritize in restorative treatment the combined pharmacotherapy "Citicoline" in integrated use with the drug "Cortexin." During the clin�ical study, we analyzed the statistics obtained, which also support the effectiveness of combined neuroprotection of cyticoline and cortexine in recovery treatment in the rehabilitation period of ischemic stroke.

description: A number of questions associated with practical implementations of quantum cryptography systems having to do with unconditional secrecy, computational loads and effective secrecy rates in the presence of perfect and imperfect sources are discussed. The different types of unconditional secrecy, and their relationship to general communications security, are discussed in the context of quantum cryptography. In order to actually carry out a quantum cryptography protocol it is necessary that sufficient computational resources be available to perform the various processing steps, such as sifting, error correction, privacy amplification and authentication. We display the full computer machine instruction requirements needed to support a practical quantum cryptography implementation. We carry out a numerical comparison of system performance characteristics for implementations that make use of either weak coherent sources of light or perfect single photon sources, for eavesdroppers making individual attacks on the quantum channel characterized by different levels of technological capability. We find that, while in some circumstances it is best to employ perfect single photon sources, in other situations it is preferable to utilize weak coherent sources. In either case the secrecy level of the final shared cipher is identical, with the relevant distinguishing figure-of-merit being the effective throughput rate.

description: Q-balls are non-topological solitons whose classical stability is ensured by a global $U(1)$ charge. In particular, Q-balls are produced in the framework of the Affleck-Dine baryogenesis where $U(1)$ charge is the baryon number. Since some type of Q-balls is stable against quantum decay into nucleons, it can work as the dark matter. When the dark matter Q-balls are captured into the neutron star, they absorb the surrounding neutrons and grow to consume all the neutrons, which leads to a stringent constraint on the Q-ball dark matter. However, the Q-ball growth stops due to the $U(1)$ breaking A-term. We revisit the constraint by the neutron star for the gauge-mediation type and the new type Q-ball, and find the allowed parameter space, in which Q-balls work as the dark matter.

description: Measurement of gamma-ray polarization can provide valuable insight in different areas of physics. A possible application is in Positron Emission Tomography, where annihilation quanta with orthogonal polarizations are emitted. Since polarization can be measured via Compton scattering, the initial orthogonality of polarizations can be translated to correlation of azimuthal scattering angles, and this correlation may be exploited as an additional handle to identify the true coincidence events. To examine the concept of using the polarization correlations in PET, we have used a system of two compact, position and energy-sensitive Compton detectors in coincidence mode. Each consists of a single matrix of scintillation pixels, read-out by an array of Silicon photomultipliers. The Compton events in each module are clearly identified and the scattering angles are reconstructed from the energy deposition and event topology. We have extracted the polarimetric modulation factors from the distributions of the difference of the azimuthal angles of the two Compton-scattered gammas and studied their dependence on Compton scattering angles $θ$ and on azimuthal resolution $Δϕ$. For scattering angles around $θ_{1,2}=82^\circ$, where the maximum modulation is expected, the modulation factors from $μ=0.15\pm 0.01$ to $μ=0.27\pm 0.02$ have been measured, depending on the azimuthal resolution, which is governed by event topology in the detectors. Analogously, for scattering around $θ_{1,2}=70^\circ$, modulation factors from $μ=0.12\pm 0.01$ to $μ=0.21\pm 0.02$ have been obtained. The results show that the measurement of the polarization correlations of annihilation quanta are feasible with compact single-layer, single-side read-out detectors, which may be used to build cost-efficient systems for various applications where gamma-ray polarization information is of interest.

description: By using quasi-Banach techniques as key ingredient we prove Poincaré- and Sobolev- type inequalities for $m$-subharmonic functions with finite $(p,m)$-energy. A consequence of the Sobolev type inequality is a partial confirmation of Błocki's integrability conjecture for $m$-subharmonic functions.

description: Whole-genome sequencing has shown that the large (8-12 Mbp) genomes of Streptomyces and allied genera of Gram-positive filamentous bacteria house a rich and previously underestimated repertoire of gene clusters for biosynthesis of specialised metabolites, including antibiotics, immunosuppressants and anticancer compounds. Many of these clusters remain uncharacterised because they are not expressed under the culture conditions used. Even for strains from which a specific compound has been identified, the challenge remains to link the compound to its gene cluster, and to develop procedures for analysing and manipulating the biosynthetic pathway. In this work, three strains have been studied that address different aspects of this challenge. Streptomyces sp. DSM4137 is a genetically amenable strain and a notably prolific producer of diverse natural products, but also has multiple biosynthetic gene clusters that remain uncharacterised. In an attempt to differentiate those clusters where the genes are expressed from those that are essentially silent, the transcriptome of DSM4137 was analysed using total RNASeq and the results were used to inform analysis of HPLC/MS data of extracts under the same conditions. There was shown to be good correlation between the RNASeq results and the pattern of metabolites produced, suggesting that RNASeq may be a useful complement in the search for novel gene clusters. In contrast, Saccharopolyspora spinosa, producer of the valuable insecticidal spinosyns, is not genetically amenable. A new technique has been developed for the mobilisation of an entire biosynthetic gene cluster and refactoring attempted to increase the production of spinosyns in a heterologous strain. Total transcriptome was analysed by RNAseq to give an insight into the regulation of the WT strain, helping identify future methods for strain manipulation for increase yields.

description: We have calculated energy levels and lifetimes of 4f7 and 4f6 5d configurations of Gd IV using Hartree-Fock and configuration interaction methods. This allows us to reduce significantly the uncertainty of the theoretical determination of the electron electric dipole moment (EDM) enhancement factor in this ion and, correspondingly, in gadolinium-containing garnets for which such measurements were recently proposed. Our new value for the EDM enhancement factor of Gd+3 is -2.2 +- 0.5. Calculations of energy levels and lifetimes for Eu~III are used to control the accuracy.

description: An open quantum system interacting with a heat bath at given temperature is expected to reach the mean force Gibbs (MFG) state as a steady state. The MFG state is given by tracing out the bath degrees of freedom from the equilibrium Gibbs state of the total system plus bath. When the interaction between the system and the bath is not negligible, it is different from the usual system Gibbs state obtained from the system Hamiltonian only. Using the path integral method, we present the exact MFG state for a coupled system of quantum harmonic oscillators in contact with multiple thermal baths at the same temperature. We develop a nonperturbative method to calculate the covariances with respect to the MFG state. By comparing them with those obtained from the system Gibbs state, we find that the effect of coupling to the bath decays exponentially as a function of the distance from the system-bath boundary. This is similar to the skin effect found recently for a quantum spin chain interacting with an environment. Using the exact results, we also investigate the ultrastrong coupling limit where the coupling between the system and the bath gets arbitrarily large and make a connection with the recent result found for a general quantum system.

description: Software services play a crucial role in daily life, with automated actions determining access to resources and information. Trusting service providers to perform these actions fairly and accurately is essential, yet challenging for users to verify. Even with publicly available codebases, the rapid pace of development and the complexity of modern deployments hinder the understanding and evaluation of service actions, including for experts. Hence, current trust models rely heavily on the assumption that service providers follow best practices and adhere to laws and regulations, which is increasingly impractical and risky, leading to undetected flaws and data leaks.
 In this paper, we argue that gathering verifiable evidence during software development and operations is needed for creating a new trust model. Therefore, we present TrustOps, an approach for continuously collecting verifiable evidence in all phases of the software life cycle, relying on and combining already existing tools and trust-enhancing technologies to do so. For this, we introduce the adaptable core principles of TrustOps and provide a roadmap for future research and development.

Discriminating Uranium Isotopes Based on Fission Signatures Induced by Delayed Neutrons

description: The use of active interrogation (AI) to induce delayed neutron emission is a well-established technique for the characterization of special nuclear materials (SNM). Delayed neutrons have isotope-characteristic spectral and temporal signatures, which provide the basis for isotope identification. However, in bulk materials that contain an appreciable fissile (e.g., $^{235}$U or $^{233}$U) fraction, such as highly-enriched uranium (HEU), delayed neutrons have a high probability of inducing additional fissions. As a result, the overall delayed neutron signature consists of two distinct components: the "primary" delayed neutrons (emitted directly by fission fragments), and the "secondary prompt" fission neutrons produced in fission induced by primary delayed neutrons. These prompt products differ from "primary" delayed neutrons both in their energy spectra and in the presence of coincident radiation released by the parent fission event. The presence and relative quantity of prompt products from delayed fission depend on the cross-section of the material in the energy range of delayed neutrons, which may differ significantly between isotopes, thus providing an exploitable means for isotope differentiation. In this work, we demonstrate two experimental approaches for discriminating between $^{235}$U and $^{238}$U isotopes based on the measurement of delayed neutron-induced fission products. First, HEU and depleted uranium objects are differentiated through the detection of high-energy prompt neutrons from delayed fission using both recoil-based organic liquid scintillators and thermalization spectra from a custom-built capture-gated composite detector. Secondly, coincident radiation measurements are used as the basis for discrimination by comparing the overall rates and time evolution of fission events when delayed neutrons are present.

description: Neutron tagging is a fundamental technique for electron anti-neutrino detection via the inverse beta decay channel. A reported discrepancy in neutron detection efficiency between observational data and simulation predictions prompted an investigation into neutron capture modeling in Geant4. The study revealed that an overestimation of the thermal motion of hydrogen atoms in Geant4 impacts the fraction of captured nuclei. By manually modifying the Geant4 implementation, the simulation results align with calculations based on evaluated nuclear data and show good agreement with observables derived from the SK-Gd data.

description: In computable general equilibrium (CGE) models, it is typically assumed that agricultural resources are smoothly substitutable in neoclassical production or cost functions, with flexible wages, rents and prices generating market equilibrium in a setting with full resource employment. 1 Although this specification is often adequate, it is also often inadequate, especially when the analysis focuses on resource allocation and production technology issues. With more disaggregation, which is becoming common in CGE models with an agricultural focus, the use of smooth, twice-differentiable, production or cost functions to specify agricultural technology is increasingly unrealistic. The purpose of this paper is to show how CGE models formulated as non-linear mixedcomplementarity (MC) problems can incorporate alternative, more realistic, specifications of agricultural technology and supply, drawing on the extensive literature on mathematical programming models applied to agriculture.2 First, we present a stylized standard neoclassical CGE model, which is then extended to a CGE-MC format to include Leontief (activity analysis) technology, endogenous determination of the market regime for agricultural factors (unemployment or full employment) and inequality constraints on agricultural factor use. In an analysis of reduced agricultural water supplies in Egypt, it is then shown how such a model can generate realistic results concerning water use and productivity that cannot be captured in a standard CGE model. The main conclusion is that, in analyses focused on agricultural supply issues, CGE-MC models that selectively incorporate features from the mathematical programming literature offer a powerful alternative to standard models. The underlying producer optimization problems for the different situations are presented in an Appendix.

description: We study the three dimensional Schwarzschild-de Sitter (SdS$_3$) black hole which corresponds essentially to a conical defect. We compute the mass of the SdS$_3$ black hole from the correct definition of the mass in asymptotically de Sitter space. Then we clarify the relation between the mass, entropy and temperature for this black hole without any ambiguity. Also we establish the SdS$_3$/CFT$_2$-correspondence for the entropy by applying the Cardy formula to a CFT with a central charge $c=3\ell/2G_3$. Finally we discuss the entropy bounds for the SdS$_3$ black hole.
