Phase mixing vs. nonlinear advection in drift-kinetic plasma turbulence

description: A scaling theory of long-wavelength electrostatic turbulence in a magnetised, weakly collisional plasma (e.g., ITG turbulence) is proposed, with account taken both of the nonlinear advection of the perturbed particle distribution by fluctuating ExB flows and of its phase mixing, which is caused by the streaming of the particles along the mean magnetic field and, in a linear problem, would lead to Landau damping. It is found that it is possible to construct a consistent theory in which very little free energy leaks into high velocity moments of the distribution function, rendering the turbulent cascade in the energetically relevant part of the wave-number space essentially fluid-like. The velocity-space spectra of free energy expressed in terms of Hermite-moment orders are steep power laws and so the free-energy content of the phase space does not diverge at infinitesimal collisionality (while it does for a linear problem); collisional heating due to long-wavelength perturbations vanishes in this limit (also in contrast with the linear problem, in which it occurs at the finite rate equal to the Landau-damping rate). The ability of the free energy to stay in the low velocity moments of the distribution function is facilitated by the "anti-phase-mixing" effect, whose presence in the nonlinear system is due to the stochastic version of the plasma echo (the advecting velocity couples the phase-mixing and anti-phase-mixing perturbations). The partitioning of the wave-number space between the (energetically dominant) region where this is the case and the region where linear phase mixing wins its competition with nonlinear advection is governed by the "critical balance" between linear and nonlinear timescales (which for high Hermite moments splits into two thresholds, one demarcating the wave-number region where phase mixing predominates, the other where plasma echo does).

description: Heterotrimeric G proteins are crucial for the perception of external signals and subsequent signal transduction in animal and plant cells. In both model systems, the complex is comprised of one Gα, one Gβ and one Gγ subunit. However, in addition to the canonical Gγ subunits (Class A), plants also possess two unusual, plant-specific classes of Gγ subunits (Classes B and C) not yet found in animals. These include Gγ subunits lacking the C-terminal CaaX motif (Class B) which is important for membrane anchoring of the protein, and thus give rise to a flexible subpopulation of Gβ/γ heterodimers that is not necessarily restricted to the plasma membrane. Even more interesting, plants also contain Class C Gγ subunits which are twice the size of canonical Gγs, with a predicted transmembrane domain, and a large cysteine-rich, extracellular C-terminus. However, neither the presence of the transmembrane domain nor the membrane topology has been unequivocally demonstrated. Here, we provide compelling evidence that AGG3, a Class C Ggamma subunit of Arabidopsis, contains a functional transmembrane domain, which is sufficient but not essential for plasma membrane localization, and that the cysteine-rich C-terminus is extracellular.

description: The annual cycle of abundance of a Silicoflagellate species, Dictyocha fibula, in the surface waters of the bay of Villefranche-sur-Mer, was studied in relation to some hydrological characteristics (temperature, salinity, density, stability) during the years 1962 and 1963.Dictyocha fibula shows an important development in the beginning of the year (January to March) with 4,000 to 5,000 cells per liter, disappears during the summer, and can be found in small quantities in autumn. In its gross features this cycle may be related to the hydrological cycle of the waters of Villefranche-sur-Mer. In particular, it is possible to relate the appearance and disappearanceo f Dictyocha figula in surface waters with the cycle of temperature and stability.

description: High school and college graduates seemingly are often battling for the courses they should major in order to achieve their target career. In this paper, we worked on suggesting a career path to a graduate to reach his/her dream career given the current educational status. Firstly, we collected the career data of professionals and academicians from various career fields and compiled the data set by using the necessary information from the data. Further, this was used as the basis to suggest the most appropriate career path for the person given his/her current educational status. Decision trees and string matching algorithms were employed to suggest the appropriate career path for a person. Finally, an analysis of the result has been done directing to further improvements in the model.

description: The D-brane superpotential is very important in the low energy effective theory. As the generating function of all disk instantons from the worldsheet point of view, it plays a crucial role in deriving some important properties of the compact Calabi-Yau manifolds. By using the GKZ-generalized hypergeometric system, we will calculate the B-brane superpotentials of two non-fermat type compact Calabi-Yau hypersurfaces in toric varieties,respectively. Then according to the mirror symmetry, we obtain the A-model superpotentials and the Ooguri-Vafa invariants for the mirror Calabi-Yau manifolds.

description: Topological superconductors differ from topologically trivial ones for the presence of topologically protected zero-energy modes. To date, experimental evidence of topological superconductivity in nanostructures has been mainly obtained by measuring the zero-bias conductance peak via tunneling spectroscopy. Here, we propose an alternative and complementary experimental recipe to detect topological phase transitions in these systems. We show in fact that, for a finite-sized system with broken time-reversal symmetry, discontinuities in the Josephson current-phase relation correspond to the presence of zero-energy modes and to a change in the fermion parity of the groundstate. Such discontinuities can be experimentally revealed by a characteristic temperature dependence of the current, and can be related to a finite anomalous current at zero phase in systems with broken phase-inversion symmetry.

description: Although the high impermeability of graphene makes it an excellent barrier to inhibit metal oxidation and corrosion, graphene can form a galvanic cell with the underlying metal that promotes corrosion of the metal in the long term. Boron nitride (BN) nanosheets which have a similar impermeability could be a better choice as protective barrier, because they are more thermally and chemically stable than graphene and, more importantly, do not cause galvanic corrosion due to their electrical insulation. In this study, the performance of commercially available BN nanosheets grown by chemical vapor deposition as a protective coating on metal has been investigated. The heating of the copper foil covered with the BN nanosheet at 250 °C in air over 100 h results in dramatically less oxidation than the bare copper foil heated for 2 h under the same conditions. The electrochemical analyses reveal that the BN nanosheet coating can increase open circuit potential and possibly reduce oxidation of the underlying copper foil in sodium chloride solution. These results indicate that BN nanosheets are a good candidate for oxidation and corrosion protection, although conductive atomic force microscopy analyses show that the effectiveness of the protection relies on the quality of BN nanosheets.

Spindle- form or cylindrical, colourless body; 0,5-0,7 mm long; syncytial epidermis with mucous glands; well developed frontal glands opening together as a frontal organ ; nervous system with a ganglious mass around the statocyst, but without distinct ganglions, and with a diffuse plexus; weak cutaneous musculature with an outer layer of circular fibres, inner layer with longitudinal ones; retractors of the fore end well developed; mouth without pharynx in the end of the front third of the body; diffuse lateral testes and ventral ovary with large eggs; male copulatory organ consisting of a voluminous seminal vesicle, of a penis with a stylet formed by 7 long spicules and of a short antrum opening near posterior end of the body; without a female copulatory organ.
The division of layers of the body into the epicytium, ectocytium and endocytium is absent. The body consists of a peripheral syncytium representing a united whole and of a extensive cavity with the sexual and cambial cells. The cells of neoblast type are differentiated in the peritheral syncytium and immigrate into the cavity. The morphological analysis of the animals at the various stages of their maturity shows that at first the animals function as males, then become hermaphrodites and at last females, the male copulatory organ being lost.

description: In the last decade, the emergence of high throughput screening has enabled the development of novel drug therapies and elucidated many complex cellular processes. Concurrently, the mechanobiology community has developed tools and methods to show that the dysregulation of biophysical properties and the biochemical mechanisms controlling those properties contribute significantly to many human diseases. Despite these advances, a complete understanding of the connection between biomechanics and disease will require advances in instrumentation that enable parallelized, high throughput assays capable of probing complex signaling pathways, studying biology in physiologically relevant conditions, and capturing specimen and mechanical heterogeneity. Traditional biophysical instruments are unable to meet this need. To address the challenge of large-scale, parallelized biophysical measurements, we have developed an automated array high-throughput microscope system that utilizes passive microbead diffusion to characterize mechanical properties of biomaterials. The instrument is capable of acquiring data on twelve-channels simultaneously, where each channel in the system can independently drive two-channel fluorescence imaging at up to 50 frames per second. We employ this system to measure the concentration-dependent apparent viscosity of hyaluronan, an essential polymer found in connective tissue and whose expression has been implicated in cancer progression.

description: Abnormal blood clot stiffness is an important indicator of coagulation disorders arising from a variety of cardiovascular diseases and drug treatments. Here, we present a portable instrument for elastometry of microliter volume blood samples based upon the principle of resonant acoustic spectroscopy, where a sample of well-defined dimensions exhibits a fundamental longitudinal resonance mode proportional to the square root of the Young’s modulus. In contrast to commercial thromboelastography, the resonant acoustic method offers improved repeatability and accuracy due to the high signal-to-noise ratio of the resonant vibration. We review the measurement principles and the design of a magnetically actuated microbead force transducer applying between 23 pN and 6.7 nN, providing a wide dynamic range of elastic moduli (3 Pa–27 kPa) appropriate for measurement of clot elastic modulus (CEM). An automated and portable device, the CEMport, is introduced and implemented using a 2 nm resolution displacement sensor with demonstrated accuracy and precision of 3% and 2%, respectively, of CEM in biogels. Importantly, the small strains (<0.13%) and low strain rates (<1/s) employed by the CEMport maintain a linear stress-to-strain relationship which provides a perturbative measurement of the Young’s modulus. Measurements of blood plasma CEM versus heparin concentration show that CEMport is sensitive to heparin levels below 0.050 U/ml, which suggests future applications in sensing heparin levels of post-surgical cardiopulmonary bypass patients. The portability, high accuracy, and high precision of this device enable new clinical and animal studies for associating CEM with blood coagulation disorders, potentially leading to improved diagnostics and therapeutic monitoring.

description: Alginolytic enzymes have been detected, by viscosimetric method and by analysis of hydrolytic products, in the digestive tract of Arenicola marina L. and of the Echinoderms Psammechinus miliaris Gmelin and Holothuria forskali della Chiaje, in the cristalline tube of Tapes decussatus L. (Lamellibranchia) and in all the 13 different species of Gastropoda so far studied.
Alginase seems to be a permanent constituent of the enzymatic digestive équipement of Gastropoda, this enzyme indeed being secreted not only by phytophagous marine species, which feed on brown algae containing alginic acid, but also by carnivorous marine species and by phytophagous species terrestrial or living in freshwaters.
However, a correlation appears to exist between the dietary habits and the amount of alginase in the digestive organs.
In the cases so far studied, the optimum pH of alginases generally lies between 7,2 and 7,8.

description: Discriminating cell types is a daily request for stem cell biologists. However, there is not a user-friendly system available to date for public users to discriminate the common cell types, embryonic stem cells (ESCs), induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs), and somatic cells (SCs). Here, we develop WCTDS, a web-server of cell type discrimination system, to discriminate the three cell types and their subtypes like fetal versus adult SCs. WCTDS is developed as a top layer application of our recent publication regarding cell type discriminations, which employs DNA-methylation as biomarkers and machine learning models to discriminate cell types. Implemented by Django, Python, R, and Linux shell programming, run under Linux-Apache web server, and communicated through MySQL, WCTDS provides a friendly framework to efficiently receive the user input and to run mathematical models for analyzing data and then to present results to users. This framework is flexible and easy to be expended for other applications. Therefore, WCTDS works as a user-friendly framework to discriminate cell types and subtypes and it can also be expended to detect other cell types like cancer cells.

description: The programming of CIs is essential for good performance. However, no Good Clinical Practice guidelines exist. This paper reports on the results of an inventory of the current practice worldwide. A questionnaire was distributed to 47 CI centers. They follow 47600 recipients in 17 countries and 5 continents. The results were discussed during a debate. Sixty-two percent of the results were verified through individual interviews during the following months. Most centers (72%) participated in a cross-sectional study logging 5 consecutive fitting sessions in 5 different recipients. Data indicate that general practice starts with a single switch-on session, followed by three monthly sessions, three quarterly sessions, and then annual sessions, all containing one hour of programming and testing. The main focus lies on setting maximum and, to a lesser extent, minimum current levels per electrode. These levels are often determined on a few electrodes and then extrapolated. They are mainly based on subjective loudness perception by the CI user and, to a lesser extent, on pure tone and speech audiometry. Objective measures play a small role as indication of the global MAP profile. Other MAP parameters are rarely modified. Measurable targets are only defined for pure tone audiometry. Huge variation exists between centers on all aspects of the fitting practice.

description: In order to analyze the influence of methods to design antireflection coatings (ARCs) on reflectivity of broadband solar cells, we provide detailed analyses about the ARC coupled with a window layer and the refractive index dispersion effect of each layer. By multidimensional matrix data simulation, two methods were employed to measure the composite reflection of a Si/ZnS double-layer ARC within the spectral ranges of 300–870 nm (dual junction) and 300–1850 nm (triple junction) under AM1.5 solar radiation. A comparison study, between the results obtained from the commonly used weighted average reflectance method (WAR) and that from the introduced effective average reflectance method (EAR), shows that the optimization of ARC by EAR method is convenient and feasible.
Bare Market: Campus Sex Ratios, Romantic Relationships, and Sexual Behavior

description: Using a nationally-representative sample of college women, we evaluate the effect of campus sex ratios on women’s relationship attitudes and behaviors. Our results suggest that women on campuses where they comprise a higher proportion of the student body give more negative appraisals of campus men and relationships, go on fewer traditional dates, are less likely to have had a college boyfriend, and are more likely to be sexually active. These effects appear to stem both from decreased dyadic power among women on campuses where they are more numerous and from their increased difficulty locating a partner on such campuses.
Tracking Human Mobility using WiFi signals

description: We study six months of human mobility data, including WiFi and GPS traces recorded with high temporal resolution, and find that time series of WiFi scans contain a strong latent location signal. In fact, due to inherent stability and low entropy of human mobility, it is possible to assign location to WiFi access points based on a very small number of GPS samples and then use these access points as location beacons. Using just one GPS observation per day per person allows us to estimate the location of, and subsequently use, WiFi access points to account for 80\% of mobility across a population. These results reveal a great opportunity for using ubiquitous WiFi routers for high-resolution outdoor positioning, but also significant privacy implications of such side-channel location tracking.

Federated EGA

description: ELIXIR Converge WP7 was conceived as a mechanism to accelerate the creation of the Federated version of the European Genome-phenome Archive (FEGA) in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. As part of this effort, a Node maturity model has been designed, deployed and tested across the Nodes of the federation. The Node maturity model aims to become a self-guided tool covering most of the relevant aspects to be taken into account when deploying and operating a federated EGA Node. As part of a concerted effort to manage and share COVID-19 host genomics data, this deliverable illustrates the connection of the development of the federated EGA and its alignment with the national and regional plans for data-sharing initiatives. Since ELIXIR Converge WP7 started, the work of WP has been focused on understanding the needs for a structured model to facilitate the engagement of the new Nodes to the Federated EGA Network. For this reason, several resources have been created to help new Nodes to start the work. The main activities described in this deliverable are related to the FEGA Maturity Model and operational documentation for FEGA Nodes, including the main resources that can be consulted to facilitate the operation of a FEGA Node. To centralise all these resources, the Federated EGA Knowledge Base was assembled following the Maturity Model structure with the information on how to join the Federated EGA Network based on the knowledge and experiences of current Nodes and their use cases. Indeed, the FEGA Maturity Model and FEGA Knowledge Base provide information across the relevant domains: Governance, Strategy & Sustainability, Legal, Data & Metadata management, Technical Infrastructure, Operations support and Communications, Community Building, and Engagement. Each of these domains emphasise important aspects to consider when establishing a FEGA Node. The ultimate goal of this deliverable is to provide future and existing FEGA Nodes with resources on how to follow best practices when implementing the Node. In the same way, it intends to agree on some guidelines to standardise the processes among FEGA Nodes as much as possible and, thus, facilitate the transit among them as well as the transit between the central Node of EGA and the FEGA Nodes. Importantly, these outcomes are instrumental to the European Genomics Data Infrastructure (GDI) as FEGA Nodes are a core component of this project. Indeed, the Federated EGA Maturity Model and Knowledge Bare will serve as important elements for having 15+ operational national GDI nodes by 2026.

description: We report on first-principles total-energy and phonon calculations that clarify structural stability and electronic properties of freestanding bilayer silicene. By extensive structural exploration, we reach all the stable structures reported before and find four new dynamically stable structures, including the structure with the largest cohesive energy. We find that atomic protrusion from the layer is the principal relaxation pattern which stabilizes bilayer silicene and determines the lateral periodicity. The hybrid-functional calculation shows that the most stable bilayer silicene is a semiconductor with the energy gap of 1.3 eV.

High-Q operation of SRF cavities: The potential impact of thermocurrents on the RF surface resistance

description: For many new accelerator applications, superconducting radio frequency (SRF) systems are the enabling technology. In particular for CW applications, much effort is being expended to minimize the power dissipation (surface resistance) of niobium cavities. Starting in 2009, we suggested a means of reducing the residual resistance by performing a thermal cycle [1], a procedure of warming up a cavity after initial cooldown to about 20K and cooling it down again. In subsequent studies [2], this technique was used to manipulate the residual resistance by more than a factor of 2. It was postulated that thermocurrents during cooldown generate additional trapped magnetic flux that impacts the cavity quality factor. Here, we present a more extensive study that includes measurements of two additional passband modes and that confirms the effect. In this paper, we also discuss simulations that support the claim. While the layout of the cavity LHe tank system is cylindrically symmetric, we show that the temperature dependence of the material parameters results in a non-symmetric current distribution. Hence a significant amount of magnetic flux can be generated at the RF surface.
