description: Magneto-optical traps on atom chips are usually restricted to small atomic samples due to a limited capture volume caused primarily by distorted field configurations. Here we present a magneto-optical trap with minimized distortions based on a mesoscopic wire structure which provides a loading rate of 8.4 10^10 atoms/s and a maximum number of 8.7 10^9 captured atoms. The wire structure is placed outside of the vacuum to enable a further adaptation to new scientific objectives. Since all magnetic fields are applied locally without the need for external bias fields, the presented setup will facilitate parallel generation of Bose-Einstein condensates on a conveyor belt with a cycle rate above 1 Hz.

description: We report results from an updated study of the suppressed decays B- to D K- and B- to D* K- followed by D to K+pi-, where D(*) indicates a D(*)0 or an anti-D(*)0 meson, and D* decays to D pi0 or D gamma. These decays are sensitive to the CKM unitarity triangle angle gamma, due to interference between the b to c transition B- to D(*)0K- followed by the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed decay D0 to K+pi-, and the b to u transition B- to anti-D(*)0K- followed by the Cabibbo-favored decay anti-D0 to K+pi-. We also report an analysis of the decay B- to D(*)pi- with the D decaying into the doubly Cabibbo-suppressed mode D to K+pi-. Our results are based on 467 million Upsilon (4S) to B anti-B decays collected with the BaBar detector at SLAC. We measure the ratios R(*) of the suppressed ([K+pi-]_D K-/pi-) to favored ([K-pi+]_D K-/pi-) branching fractions as well as the CP asymmetries A(*) of those modes. We see indications of signals for the B- to D K- and B- to D*K-, D*->D pi0 suppressed modes, with statistical significances of 2.1 and 2.2 sigma, respectively, and we measure: R_{DK} = (1.1\pm 0.6 \pm 0.2)\times 10^{-2}, A_{DK} = -0.86 \pm 0.47 \ ^{+0.12}_{-0.16}, R*_{(D pi0)K} = (1.8\pm 0.9 \pm 0.4)\times 10^{-2}, A*_{(D pi0)K} = +0.77 \pm 0.35\pm 0.12, R*_{(D gamma)K} = (1.3\pm 1.4\pm 0.8 )\times 10^{-2}, A*_{(D gamma)K} = +0.36 \pm 0.94\ ^{+0.25}_{-0.41}, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second is systematic. We use a frequentist approach to obtain the magnitude of the ratio r_B = |A(B- to anti-D0 K-) / A(B- to D0K-)|= (9.5^{+5.1}_{-4.1})%, with r_B<16.7% at 90% confidence level. In the case of B- to D* K- we find r*_B = |A(B^- to anti-D*0 K-)/A(B- to D*0 K-)|=(9.6^{+3.5}_{-5.1})%, with r*_B<15.0% at 90% confidence level.

description: The effect of various Did B concentrations on HEp-2a translation, cell viability and levels of eEF1A. (A) HEp-2a cells were transfected with a Gaussia luciferase reporter plasmid and then treated with serial dilutions of Did B using 1 nM to 16 nM concentrations as indicated for 48 h. The level of Gaussia luciferase made by the transfected cells was measured. (B) An MTS cell viability assay was performed on HEp-2a cells treated with the same concentrations of Did B. Both experiments were performed in triplicate and repeated twice. (C) Western blot of cell lysates from untreated, DMSO or Did B treated HEp-2a cells that were incubated for 24 or 48 h as indicated. The blots were stained with either anti-eEF1A or anti-β-tubulin and a secondary antibody conjugated to HRP. (D) The digital images from three independent experiments were analyzed using ImageJ software. The relative eEF1A signal was normalised to the level of β-tubulin detected on the same blot for each sample. The graph shows mean value and standard deviation for the experiments. Where indicated, n.s. indicates that a Student’s T-test determined that the mean values were not significantly different. The mean values and standard deviation of the results are shown. The n.s. indicates that a Student’s T-test determined that the difference between the samples compared was not significant. (PDF 461 kb)

On the universality of density profiles

Year: 2010

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We use the secondary infall model described in Del Popolo (2009), which takes into account the effect of dynamical friction, ordered and random angular momentum, baryons adiabatic contraction and dark matter baryons interplay, to study how in- ner slopes of relaxed LCDM dark matter (DM) halos with and without baryons (baryons+DM, and pure DM) depend on redshift and on halo mass. We apply the quoted method to structures on galactic scales and clusters of galaxies scales. We find that the inner logarithmic density slope, of dark matter halos with baryons has a significant dependence on halo mass and redshift with slopes ranging from 0 for dwarf galaxies to 0.4 for objects of M = 10^13M_solar and 0.94 for M = 10^15M_solar clusters of galaxies. Structures slopes increase with increasing redshift and this trend reduces going from galaxies to clusters. In the case of density profiles constituted just of dark matter the mass and redshift dependence of slope is very slight. In this last case, we used the Merrit et al. (2006) analysis who compared N-body density profiles with various parametric models finding systematic variation in profile shape with halo mass. This last analysis suggests that the galaxy-sized halos obtained with our model have a different shape parameter, i.e. a different mass distribution, than the cluster-sized halos, obtained with the same model. The results of the present paper argue against universality of density profiles constituted by dark matter and baryons and confirm claims of a systematic variation in profile shape with halo mass, for dark matter halos.

description: In this article we will show the dynamics of the interaction of global opposites with obtaining the derivation of improved Maxwell’s equations and with transition to wave equations.In the beginning, we will define the main paradoxes in the description of electromagnetic processes using the usual Maxwell equations and show the need to improve them to the form of correspondence to real corpuscular-wave objects. Next, we will also define the paradoxes of the transition from the usual Maxwell’s equations to the wave equations. At the same time, we will show a transition without paradoxes to wave equations based on the improved Maxwell equations. We will give a real representation of the Louis de Broglie wave function as reflecting electromagnetic processes in contrast. In fact, we will establish that the conclusion of our equations coincides with the conclusion that existed in electrodynamics, but at the taking into account of corrections for the interaction of global opposites, symmetry and the law of conservation of quantity. At the same time, we show the need to take into account the common electromagnetic and space-time continuum in the formation of the electromagnetic process.

description: Nanoscale objects often behave differently than their 'normal-sized' counterparts. Sometimes it is enough to be small in just one direction to exhibit unusual features. One example of such a phenomenon is a very specific in-plane magnetic anisotropy observed sometimes in very thin layers of various materials. Here we recall a peculiar form of the free energy functional nicely describing the experimental findings but completely irrelevant and thus never observed in larger objects.

Development of the human innate immune system throughout gestation
Creators: name: Sharma, Ashish Arunkumar
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: Almost four million neonates die of infectious and prematurity-related causes across the world annually. The innate immune system provides evolutionarily ancient first-line protection against most microbial pathogens. In contrast, the adaptive immune system is capable of developing an immunological memory that provides enhanced protection in vertebrates. A mechanistic understanding of the maturation of the human preterm neonatal immune system is lacking and this may limit our ability to develop more age-appropriate immunological therapies. In Chapter 1, I analyzed prototypic anti-microbial receptor responses in a clinically well-characterized cohort of premature infants to provide evidence that responses develop asynchronously and follow a developmental pattern that is independent of perinatal factors linked to the premature delivery. In Chapter 2, I dissected molecular rate-limiting steps along a major inflammatory pathway leading to the production of the interleukin-1β (IL-1β) cytokine, across development. The IL-1β cytokine is particularly important as its production serves to amplify innate immune responses. I show that premature neonates born early in the third trimester of gestation lack IL-1β responses due to a lack of activity in the caspase-1 enzyme. In the final chapter, I developed an efficient purification method to study the phenotype of neonatal invariant Natural Killer T (iNKT) cells. Using this method, I show that neonatal iNKT cells display heightened proliferative capacity compared to conventional T cells, consistent with an innate-like phenotype. Altogether, my work provides important insights into mechanisms and developmental characteristics of the fetus and early newborn immune system. This work forms the basis for future studies aimed at understanding how functional characteristics of the neonatal immune system can be therapeutically modulated to prevent neonatal infections.

description: (Abreviated) Continued radial velocity monitoring of the nearby M4V red dwarf star GJ~876 with Keck/HIRES has revealed the presence of a Uranus-mass fourth planetary companion in the system. The new planet has a mean period of $P_e=126.6$ days (over the 12.6-year baseline of the radial velocity observations), and a minimum mass of $m_e\sin{i_e}=12.9\pm 1.7\,M_{\oplus}$. Self-consistent, N-body fits to the radial velocity data set show that the four-planet system has an invariable plane with an inclination relative to the plane of the sky of $i=59.5^{\circ}$. The fit is not significantly improved by the introduction of a mutual inclination between the planets ``b'' and ``c,'' but the new data do confirm a non-zero eccentricity, $e_d=0.207\pm0.055$ for the innermost planet, ``d.'' In our best-fit coplanar model, the mass of the new component is $m_e=14.6\pm1.7\,M_{\oplus}$. Our best-fitting model places the new planet in a 3-body resonance with the previously known giant planets (which have mean periods of $P_c=30.4$ and $P_b=61.1$ days). The critical argument, $φ_{\rm Laplace}=λ_c-3λ_b+2λ_e$, for the Laplace resonance librates with an amplitude of $Δφ_{\rm Laplace}=40\pm13^{\circ}$ about $φ_{\rm Laplace}=0^{\circ}$. Numerical integration indicates that the four-planet system is stable for at least a billion years (at least for the coplanar cases). This resonant configuration of three giant planets orbiting an M-dwarf primary differs from the well-known Laplace configuration of the three inner Galilean satellites of Jupiter, which are executing very small librations about $φ_{\rm Laplace}=180^{\circ}$, and which never experience triple conjunctions. The GJ~876 system, by contrast, comes close to a triple conjunction between the outer three planets once per every orbit of the outer planet, ``e.''

Robust Lattice Alignment for K-user MIMO Interference Channels with Imperfect Channel Knowledge

description: In this paper, we consider a robust lattice alignment design for K-user quasi-static MIMO interference channels with imperfect channel knowledge. With random Gaussian inputs, the conventional interference alignment (IA) method has the feasibility problem when the channel is quasi-static. On the other hand, structured lattices can create structured interference as opposed to the random interference caused by random Gaussian symbols. The structured interference space can be exploited to transmit the desired signals over the gaps. However, the existing alignment methods on the lattice codes for quasi-static channels either require infinite SNR or symmetric interference channel coefficients. Furthermore, perfect channel state information (CSI) is required for these alignment methods, which is difficult to achieve in practice. In this paper, we propose a robust lattice alignment method for quasi-static MIMO interference channels with imperfect CSI at all SNR regimes, and a two-stage decoding algorithm to decode the desired signal from the structured interference space. We derive the achievable data rate based on the proposed robust lattice alignment method, where the design of the precoders, decorrelators, scaling coefficients and interference quantization coefficients is jointly formulated as a mixed integer and continuous optimization problem. The effect of imperfect CSI is also accommodated in the optimization formulation, and hence the derived solution is robust to imperfect CSI. We also design a low complex iterative optimization algorithm for our robust lattice alignment method by using the existing iterative IA algorithm that was designed for the conventional IA method. Numerical results verify the advantages of the proposed robust lattice alignment method.

On the color suppressed contribution to $\bar{B_{d}^0} \rightarrow \, π^0 π^{0}

description: The decay modes of the type $B \rightarrow π\, π$ are dynamically different. For the case $\bar{B_{d}^0} \rightarrow \, π^+ π^- $ there is a substantial factorized contribution which dominates. In contrast, the decay mode $\bar{B_{d}^0} \rightarrow \, π^0 π^{0} $ has a small factorized contribution, being proportional to a small Wilson coefficient combination. However, for the decay mode $\bar{B_{d}^0} \rightarrow \, π^0 π^{0} $ there is a sizeable nonfactorizable (color suppressed) contribution due to soft (long distance) interactions, which dominate the amplitude. We estimate the branching ratio for the mode $\bar{B_{d}^0} \rightarrow \, π^0 π^{0} $ in the heavy quark limit for the $b$- quark. In order to estimate color suppressed contributions we treat the energetic light ($u,d,s$) quark within a variant of Large Energy Effective Theory combined with a recent extension of chiral quark models in terms of model- dependent gluon condensates. We find that our calculated color suppressed amplitude is suppressed by a factor of order $Λ_{QCD}/m_b$ with respect to the factorizable amplitude, as it should according to QCD-factorization. Further, for reasonable values of the constituent quark mass and the gluon condensate, the calculated nonfactorizable amplitude for $\bar{B_{d}^0} \rightarrow \, π^0 π^{0} $ can easily accomodate the experimental value. Unfortunately, the color suppressed amplitude is very sensitive to the values of these model dependent parameters. Therefore fine-tuning is necessary in order to obtain an amplitude compatible with the experimental result for $\bar{B_{d}^0} \rightarrow \, π^0 π^{0} $. A possible link to the triangle anomaly is discussed.

description: We present a Green's function based framework for modeling the scanning tunneling spectrum from the normal as well as the superconducting state of complex materials where the nature of the tunneling process$-$ i.e. the effect of the tunneling 'matrix element', is properly taken into account. The formalism is applied to the case of optimally doped Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+δ}$ (Bi2212) high-Tc superconductor using a large tight-binding basis set of electron and hole orbitals. The results show clearly that the spectrum is modified strongly by the effects of the tunneling matrix element and that it is not a simple replica of the local density of states (LDOS) of the Cu-$d_{x^2-y^2}$ orbitals with other orbitals playing a key role in shaping the spectra. We show how the spectrum can be decomposed usefully in terms of tunneling 'channels' or paths through which the current flows from various orbitals in the system to the scanning tip. Such an analysis reveals symmetry forbidden and symmetry enhanced paths between the tip and the cuprate layers. Significant contributions arise from not only the CuO$_2$ layer closest to the tip, but also from the second CuO$_2$ layer. The spectrum also contains a longer range background reflecting the non-local nature of the underlying Bloch states. In the superconducting state, coherence peaks are found to be dominated by the anomalous components of Green's function.

description: We present transport, Hall effect, electronic tunnelling and penetration depth studies in 3D homogeneously disordered epitaxial NbN thin films with disorder ranging from the moderately clean limit (k_Fl~10.12) to the very dirty limit (k_Fl~1.24). The superconducting transition temperature (T_c) decreases from ~17K to less than 350mK with increasing disorder. The T_c and conductivity at the lowest temperature both asymptotically approach zero as k_Fl tends to 1, indicating a coincidence of the metal-insulator transition (MIT) and the superconductor-insulator transition. Close to critical disorder there is spatial inhomogeneity in the superconducting density of states (DOS) and the superconducting state is governed by quantum phase fluctuations. This results in suppression of the superfluid density (n_s) and a pseudogap state where the resistance is no longer zero but the energy gap remains finite

description: Multi-packet reception (MPR) has been recognized as a powerful capacity-enhancement technique for random-access wireless local area networks (WLANs). As is common with all random access protocols, the wireless channel is often under-utilized in MPR WLANs. In this paper, we propose a novel multi-round contention random-access protocol to address this problem. This work complements the existing random-access methods that are based on single-round contention. In the proposed scheme, stations are given multiple chances to contend for the channel until there are a sufficient number of ``winning" stations that can share the MPR channel for data packet transmission. The key issue here is the identification of the optimal time to stop the contention process and start data transmission. The solution corresponds to finding a desired tradeoff between channel utilization and contention overhead. In this paper, we conduct a rigorous analysis to characterize the optimal strategy using the theory of optimal stopping. An interesting result is that the optimal stopping strategy is a simple threshold-based rule, which stops the contention process as soon as the total number of winning stations exceeds a certain threshold. Compared with the conventional single-round contention protocol, the multi-round contention scheme significantly enhances channel utilization when the MPR capability of the channel is small to medium. Meanwhile, the scheme automatically falls back to single-round contention when the MPR capability is very large, in which case the throughput penalty due to random access is already small even with single-round contention.
Clinical application and functional characterization of TOX in cutaneous T-cell lymphoma

description: Cutaneous T-cell lymphoma (CTCL) is a group of lymphoproliferative disorders consisting of two main subtypes: mycosis fungoides (MF) and Sézary syndrome (SS). Due to the lack of robust histological markers, it remains a challenge to establish an accurate diagnosis and offer long term prognostication for CTCL. In addition, the molecular pathogenesis of CTCL is only partially understood. Previously our group discovered that early stage MF skin biopsies contained ectopic expression of TOX gene, which is essential for the early development of CD4⁺ T cells but normally is switched off in mature CD4⁺ T cells in the peripheral tissues. The objectives of my thesis research are to evaluate if TOX can be used to improve CTCL diagnosis and prognostication, and to characterize the functional role of TOX in the pathogenesis of CTCL. Using skin biopsies and clinical databases from Vancouver, Beijing and Boston, I confirmed that TOX expression levels were significantly upregulated in the full spectrum of MF and in SS. In addition, as a diagnostic marker, high TOX expression levels differentiated CTCL from non-CTCL controls with good sensitivity and specificity. Furthermore, as a prognostic marker, high TOX mRNA levels correlated with increased risks of disease progression and disease-specific mortality in MF, and increased risks of disease-specific mortality in SS. I also investigated the functional role of TOX in CTCL pathogenesis using multiple CTCL cell lines and a mouse xenograft model. TOX knockdown in three CTCL cell lines led to markedly increased apoptosis, reduced cell proliferation, and impaired tumorigenic ability. These effects were partially mediated by increased expression of two cell cycle regulators, CDKN1B and CDKN1C. In addition, transcriptome analysis between TOX-suppressed cells and control CTCL cells uncovered additional potential molecules downstream of TOX, such as tumor suppressors FOXO3 and HBP1. Our results provide strong evidence that aberrant activation of TOX can serve as a diagnostic and prognostic biomarker for CTCL. Further, we demonstrated that TOX plays a crucial oncogenic role in CTCL pathogenesis, partially through regulating transcription of CDKN1B, CDKN1C and other downstream genes. Therefore TOX and/or its downstream genes may be promising therapeutic targets for CTCL.

Verbal outcomes at school entry of monolingual and bilingual children with ASD who were minimally verbal at the time of diagnosis

description: Families of children with ASD raised in bilingual homes are often provided with mixed recommendations from professionals regarding language exposure. Many parents are advised to limit language exposure to the language of instruction, despite the familial, cultural, religious, or community challenges associated with forced monolingualism. Although previous research with verbal children with ASD has consistently shown that bilingual exposure does not have a negative impact on early language development, no study to date has examined this issue in minimally verbal (MV) children. Thus, the purpose of this study was to explore the extent to which home language exposure, in combination with other variables, predicted verbal outcome at the time of school entry (around age 6) in a sample of children with ASD who were MV (i.e., spoke five or fewer words) at the time of diagnosis. Participants were 34 MV children with ASD; of these, 24 monolingual-exposed (ME) children were exposed to only one language and 10 bilingual exposed (BE) children were exposed to a second language ≥ 20% of the time. Results of a logistic regression indicated that home language exposure was not a significant predictor of verbal status at the time of school entry, but nonverbal IQ (NVIQ) scores were. In the current sample, ME children were five times more likely to remain MV at age 6 after controlling for scores relating to NVIQ, imitation, responding to joint attention, and initiating joint attention. The results suggest that, in this sample, bilingual exposure did not negatively impact the verbal outcome of MV children with ASD, although this result cannot be generalized to the population at large. Limitations of the study are addressed, highlighting directions for future research and implications for clinical practice.

Mr. Suzuki who lived in Kyoto was a professional collector of insects, and there were found a number of dragonfly specimens in the Hokkaido University bearing quite the same label “Kyoto, Suzuki” without any definite locality designation. These are:

Higher order curvature terms in Born-Infeld type brane theories

description: The field equations associated to Born-Infeld type brane theories are studied by using an auxiliary variables method. This approach hinges on the fact that the expressions defining the physical and geometrical quantities describing the worldvolume are varied independently. The general structure of the Born-Infeld type theories for branes contains the square root of a determinant of a combined matrix between the induced metric on the worldvolume swept out by the brane and a symmetric/antisymmetric tensor depending of gauge, matter or extrinsic curvature terms taking place on the worldvolume. The higher order curvature terms appearing in the determinant form come to play as competition with other effective brane models. Additionally, we suggest a Born-Infeld-Einstein type action for branes where the higher order curvature content is provided by the worldvolume Ricci tensor. This action provide an alternative description of the dynamics of braneworld scenarios.

When I examined the type material in 1935 there were three female specimens: 1♀ Formosa; 1 ♀ Okinawa, 17. V. 1912; 1 ♀ Okinawa, Sakaguchi. Judging from Oguma’s description (1926) which is apparently based on a single specimen his type seems to be the last one, this assumption can also be proved by the figures of the measurements of the specimen. But here is a big discrepancy that Oguma stated the locality of it to be “Formosa (Uchida)”. The Formosan specimen, one of the three and the first one as noted above, very unfortunately does not belong to true brunneus but to risi Chen (1950). However I decided to fix the lectotype upon the Okinawa-Sakaguchi specimen.

description: The initial stage of the drought usually begins with low-active high anticyclones and passes to the continuous (from several weeks to 2-3 months) high temperature and low rainfall air condition. As a result, the soil moisture, the high temperature gradually decreases in the humidity, the potential evaporation increases, and at this time the threat to agricultural crops increases, too. The drought is a very dangerous atmospheric phenomenon in the reduction of the agricultural productivity, along with this it is also one of the processes that will lead to the depletion of water resources. Thus, the study of the drought as one of consequences of the modern warming period has become one of the problems of concern not only to researchers, but to the entire world community. In the fulfilled article there has been explored the Ganja-Gazakh region, one of the largest economic regions of Azerbaijan, and there have been assessed some aspects of drought-productivity relations in the modern warming period.
