description: Parton percolation provides geometric deconfinement in the pre-equilibrium stage of nuclear collisions. The resulting parton condensate can lead to charmonium suppression. We formulate a local percolation condition viable for non-uniform collision environments and show that it correctly reproduces the suppression observed for S-U and Pb-Pb collisions at the SPS. Using this formulation, we then determine the behavior of J/Psi suppression for In-In collisions at the SPS and for Au-Au collisions at RHIC.

description: A new model is presented to assess the effects of changes in agricultural target prices, support prices, diversion payments, and eligibility requirements on farmer's production decisions. The central features of this paper are (1) complete incorporation of the past and current program offerings into the farmer's objective function, (2) the entire period of estimation is over a time in which program compliance was voluntary, (3) consideration is given to the effects of government programs on both acreage and yield responses, and (4) Zellner's seemingly unrelated regression method of estimation was used to estimate the entire system of equations. The estimated elasticities indicate that, while sectoral government programs can be used to reduce acreage they are relatively ineffective in reducing total output.

description: In this work, we develop two spectroscopic diagnostic methods to derive the peak reduced electric field in Transient Luminous Events (TLEs) from their optical signals. These methods could be used to analyze the optical signature of TLEs reported by spacecraft such as ASIM (ESA) and the future TARANIS (CNES). As a first validation of these methods, we apply them to the predicted (synthetic) optical signatures of halos and elves, two type of TLEs, obtained from electrodynamical models. This procedure allows us to compare the inferred value of the peak reduced electric field with the value computed by halo and elve models. Afterward, we apply both methods to the analysis of optical signatures of elves and halos reported by GLIMS (JAXA) and ISUAL (NSPO) spacecraft, respectively. We conclude that the best emission ratios to estimate the maximum reduced electric field in halos and elves are the ratio of the Second Positive System (SPS) of N$_2$ to First Negative System (FNS) of N$_2^+$, the First Positive System (FPS) of N$_2$ to FNS of N$_2^+$ and the Lyman-Birge-Hopfield (LBH) band of N$_2$ to FNS of N$_2^+$. In the case of reduced electric fields below 150~Td, we found that the ratio of the SPS of N$_2$ to FPS of N$_2$ can also be used to reasonably estimate the value of the field. Finally, we show that the reported optical signals from elves can be treated following an inversion method in order to estimate some of the characteristics of the parent lightning.

description: This study aims to uncover brain areas that are functionally linked to complex cardiovascular oscillations in resting-state conditions. Multi-session functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) and cardiovascular data were gathered from 34 healthy volunteers recruited within the human connectome project (the ‘100-unrelated subjects' release). Group-wise multi-level fMRI analyses in conjunction with complex instantaneous heartbeat correlates (entropy and Lyapunov exponent) revealed the existence of a specialized brain network, i.e. a complex central autonomic network (CCAN), reflecting what we refer to as complex autonomic control of the heart. Our results reveal CCAN areas as comprised paracingulate and cingulate gyri, temporal gyrus, frontal orbital cortex, planum temporale, temporal fusiform, superior and middle frontal gyri, lateral occipital cortex, angular gyrus, precuneous cortex, frontal pole, intracalcarine and supracalcarine cortices, parahippocampal gyrus and left hippocampus. The CCAN visible at rest does not include the insular cortex, thalamus, putamen, amygdala and right caudate, which are classical CAN regions peculiar to sympatho-vagal control. Our results also suggest that the CCAN is mainly involved in complex vagal control mechanisms, with possible links with emotional processing networks.

description: The stability and activity of lipase in organic media are important parameters in determining how quickly biocatalysis proceeds. This study aimed to examine the effects of two commonly used alcohols in industrial applications, methanol (MtOH) and ethanol (EtOH) on the conformational stability and catalytic activity of G210C lipase, a laboratory-evolved mutant of Staphylococcus epidermidis AT2 lipase. Simulation studies were performed using an open-form predicted structure under 30, 40 and 50% of MtOH and EtOH at 25 °C and 45 °C. The overall enzyme structure becomes more flexible with increasing concentration of MtOH and exhibited the highest flexibility in 40% EtOH. In EtOH, the movement of the lid was found to be temperature-dependent with a noticeable shift in the lid position at 45 °C. Lid opening was evidenced at 50% of MtOH and EtOH which was supported by the increase in SASA of hydrophobic residues of the lid and catalytic triad. The active site remained mostly intact. An open-closed lid transition was observed when the structure was re-simulated in water. Experimental evaluation of the lipase stability showed that the half-life reduced when the enzyme was treated with 40% (v/v) and 50% (v/v) of EtOH and MtOH respectively. The finding implies that a high concentration of alcohol and elevated temperature can induce the lid opening of lipase which could be essential for the activation of the enzyme, provided that the catalytic performance in the active site is not compromised.

Other well known ponderomotive forces, like the Stern-Gerlach's force and a force term related to the Einstein-de Haas's effect are also obtained. In addition, a new force term appears, possibly related to a change in weight when a system of charged particles is accelerated.

description: The human papillomavirus (HPV) vaccine is the most effective way to prevent HPV-related cancers. Integrating provider vaccine counseling is crucial to improving HPV vaccine completion rates. Automating the counseling experience through a conversational agent could help improve HPV vaccine coverage and reduce the burden of vaccine counseling for providers. In a previous study, we tested a simulated conversational agent that provided HPV vaccine counseling for parents using the Wizard of OZ protocol. In the current study, we assessed the conversational agent among young college adults (n=24), a population that may have missed the HPV vaccine during their adolescence when vaccination is recommended. We also administered surveys for system and voice usability, and for health beliefs concerning the HPV vaccine. Participants perceived the agent to have high usability that is slightly better or equivalent to other voice interactive interfaces, and there is some evidence that the agent impacted their beliefs concerning the harms, uncertainty, and risk denials for the HPV vaccine. Overall, this study demonstrates the potential for conversational agents to be an impactful tool for health promotion endeavors.

description: We present a theoretical study of optomechanical systems in which the mechanical resonator modulates both the resonant frequency (dispersive coupling) and the decay rates (dissipative coupling) of the optical cavity. We extend the generic dispersive framework to a more general case in which the dissipative coupling is split between its external and intrinsic contribution. We report a complete analysis of the influence of each kind of optical losses (intrinsic and external) on the three coupling mechanisms and highlight the interest of each external decay rate regime. The basic tools to experimentally identify the three couplings and their relative influence on the optical response are presented. We demonstrate the general expression of the optical spring effect and optomechanical damping. Comparison between experimental measurements in photonic crystal systems from the literature and our theoretical modal yields good agreement.

description: The global climate crisis poses new risks to humanity, and with them, new challenges to the practices of professional astronomy. Avoiding the more catastrophic consequences of global warming by more than 1.5 degrees requires an immediate reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. According to the 2018 United Nations Intergovernmental Panel report, this will necessitate a 45% reduction of emissions by 2030 and net-zero emissions by 2050. Efforts are required at all levels, from the individual to the governmental, and every discipline must find ways to achieve these goals. This will be especially difficult for astronomy with its significant reliance on conference and research travel, among other impacts. However, our long-range planning exercises provide the means to coordinate our response on a variety of levels. We have the opportunity to lead by example, rising to the challenge rather than reacting to external constraints. We explore how astronomy can meet the challenge of a changing climate in clear and responsible ways, such as how we set expectations (for ourselves, our institutions, and our granting agencies) around scientific travel, the organization of conferences, and the design of our infrastructure. We also emphasize our role as reliable communicators of scientific information on a problem that is both human and planetary in scale.

Diversity of off--Shell Twisted (4,4) Multiplets in SU(2) x SU(2) Harmonic Superspace
Creators: name: Ivanov, E.

Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We elaborate on four different types of twisted ${\cal N}=(4,4)$ supermultiplets in the $SU(2) \times SU(2)$, 2D harmonic superspace. In the conventional ${\cal N}=(4,4)$, 2D superspace they are described by the superfields $\hat q^{i a}$, $\hat q^{\und i a}$, $\hat q^{i \und a}$, $\hat q^{\und i \und a}$ subjected to proper differential constraints, $(i, \und i, a, \und a)$ being the doublet indices of four groups SU(2) which form the full R-symmetry group $SO(4)_L\times SO(4)_R$ of ${\cal N}=(4,4)$ supersymmetry. We construct the torsionful off--shell sigma model actions for each type of these multiplets, as well as the corresponding invariant mass terms, in an analytic subspace of the $SU(2) \times SU(2)$ harmonic superspace. As an instructive example, ${\cal N}=(4,4)$ superconformal extension of the $SU(2) \times U(1)$ WZNW sigma model action and its massive deformation are presented for the multiplet $\hat q^{i \und a}$ . We prove that ${\cal N}=(4,4)$ supersymmetry requires the general sigma model action of pair of different multiplets to split into a sum of sigma model actions of each multiplet. This phenomenon also persists if a larger number of non-equivalent multiplets are simultaneously included. We show that different multiplets may interact with each other only through mixed mass terms which can be set up for multiplets belonging to ``self-dual'' pairs $(\hat q^{i a}, \hat q^{\und i \und a})$ and $(\hat q^{\und i a}, \hat q^{i \und a})$ . The multiplets from different pairs cannot interact at all. For a ``self-dual'' pair of the twisted multiplets we give the most general form of the on-shell scalar potential.

description: Antimicrobial resistance (AMR) is fast becoming a medical crisis affecting the entire global population. World Health Organization (WHO) statistics show that globally 0.7 million people are dying yearly due to the emergence of AMR. By 2050, the expected number of lives lost will be 10 million per year. Acinetobacter baumannii is a dreadful nosocomial pathogen that has developed multidrug resistance (MDR) to several currently prescribed antibiotics worldwide. Overexpression of drug efflux transporters (DETs) is one of the mechanisms of multidrug resistance (MDR) in Acinetobacter baumannii. Therefore, blocking the DET can raise the efficacy of the existing antibiotics by increasing their residence time inside the bacteria. In silico screening of five synthetic compounds against three drug efflux pump from A. baumannii has identified KSA5, a novel imidazo[4,5-g]quinoline-4,9-dione derivative, to block the efflux of antibiotics. Molecular docking and simulation results showed that KSA5 could bind to adeB, adeG, and adeJ by consistently interacting with ligand-binding site residues. KSA5 has a higher binding free energy and a lower HOMO-LUMO energy gap than PAβN, suggesting a better ability to interact and inhibit DETs. Further analysis showed that KSA5 is a drug-like molecule with optimal physicochemical and ADME properties. Hence, KSA5 could be combined with antibiotics to overcome antimicrobial resistance.

A self-similarity principle for the computation of rare event probability
Creators: name: Hassanaly, Malik
name: Raman, Venkat
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Computational Physics (physics.comp-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The probability of rare and extreme events is an important quantity for design purposes. However, computing the probability of rare events can be expensive because only a few events, if any, can be observed. To this end, it is necessary to accelerate the observation of rare events using methods such as the importance splitting technique, which is the main focus here. In this work, it is shown how a genealogical importance splitting technique can be made more efficient if one knows how the rare event occurs in terms of the mean path followed by the observables. Using Monte Carlo simulations, it is shown that one can estimate this path using less rare paths. A self-similarity model is formulated and tested using an a priori and a posteriori analysis. The self-similarity principle is also tested on more complex systems including a turbulent combustion problem with $10^7$ degrees of freedom. While the self-similarity model is shown to not be strictly valid in general, it can still provide a good approximation of the rare mean paths and is a promising route for obtaining the statistics of rare events in chaotic high-dimensional systems.
title: Epidemiology and Chemical Control of Fusarium Seedling Blight of Winter Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)
Creators: name: Hare, Martin Christopher
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1997

description: Fourteen seed lots of winter wheat were tested for Microdochium nivale contamination using various methods. The seed lots tested were largely free from other fungal contaminants and M. nivale was both superficial and deep seated.

 No relationship between seed weight and M. nivale contamination was shown. Microdochium nivale contaminated seeds were evenly distributed by weight throughout the three seed lots tested and no relationship between seed appearance and contamination was shown.

 Seedling disease symptoms were greatest for M. nivale in cold dry conditions and for F. culmorum in warm dry soil conditions. Good linear relationships were shown between disease severity and the rate of seedling emergence for both artificially inoculated and naturally contaminated seed. Contamination by M. nivale affected seedling vigour as measured by the rate of emergence. Seedlings took longer to emerge as the percentage of M. nivale contaminated seeds increased.

 Microdochium nivale var. majus was shown to be the most common sub-group of M. nivale isolated from wheat seed. Of 91 M. nivale isolates tested 85 were identified as M. nivale var. majus and 6 as var. nivale, with the var. majus isolates being more pathogenic towards wheat seedlings.

 The efficacy of fungicide seed treatments was not affected by inoculum load as measured by the percentage of contaminated seed. However, reduced temperature did decrease the efficacy of one of the fungicides tested. In the field, effects on crop emergence and infection were observed following seed treatment at two sites. At one site disease control resulted in an increase in grain yield of 300%.

 It is clear that seedling disease will be severe when a seed lot with a high percentage of contaminated seeds is sown into conditions where seedling emergence will be slow. Under such conditions the use of a robust seed treatment is advised.

description: We study Hamiltonian walks (HWs) on Sierpinski and $n$--simplex fractals. Via numerical analysis of exact recursion relations for the number of HWs we calculate the connectivity constant $ω$ and find the asymptotic behaviour of the number of HWs. Depending on whether or not the polymer collapse transition is possible on a studied lattice, different scaling relations for the number of HWs are obtained. These relations are in general different from the well-known form characteristic of homogeneous lattices which has thus far been assumed to hold for fractal lattices too.

description: A survey of 2,310 U.S. farmer, rancher, and fishery cooperatives ending their business year during calendar year 2010 showed a net business volume of $146.1 billion, with a net income of $4.0 billion. These cooperatives had assets totaling $65 billion, $39 billion of liabilities, and $26 billion in equity. Cooperatives were a major employer in rural areas, with 129,000 full-time workers and 54,000 part-time or seasonal employees. Business volume by commodity is reported for all cooperatives. Number of cooperatives, cooperative memberships, and number of employees are classified according to whether the business is a marketing, supply, or service cooperative. Trends in cooperative numbers, memberships, employees, business size, sales volume, net income, assets, liabilities, and net worth are reported.

description: In numerous animal clades, the evolutionary history of host species drives patterns of gut microbial community structure, resulting in more divergent microbiota with increasing phylogenetic distance between hosts. This phenomenon, termed phylosymbiosis, has been observed in diverse evolutionary lineages, but has been difficult to detect in birds. Previous tests of phylosymbiosis among birds have been conducted using wild individuals, and thus interspecific differences in diet and environment may have masked a phylogenetic signal. Therefore, we tested for phylosymbiosis among all 15 species of cranes (family Gruidae) housed in the same captive environment and maintained on identical diets. 16S rRNA sequencing revealed that crane species harbour distinct gut microbiota. Overall, we detected marginally significant patterns of phylosymbiosis, the strength of which was increased when including the estimates of absolute microbial abundance (rather than relative abundance) derived from microbial densities determined by flow cytometry. Using this approach, we detected the statistically significant signatures of phylosymbiosis only after removing male cranes from our analysis, suggesting that using mixed-sex animal cohorts may prevent the detection of phylosymbiosis. Though weak compared with mammals (and especially insects), these results provide evidence of phylosymbiosis in birds. We discuss the potential differences between birds and mammals, such as transmission routes and host filtering, that may underlie the differences in the strength of phylosymbiosis.

description: The final results of the MACRO experiment on atmospheric neutrino oscillations are presented. The data concern different event topologies with average neutrino energies of ~ 3 and ~ 50 GeV. Multiple Coulomb Scattering of the high energy muons was used to estimate the neutrino energy event by event. The angular distributions, the L/E_nu distribution, the particle ratios and the absolute fluxes all favour nu_mu --> nu_tau oscillations with maximal mixing and Delta m^2 ~ 0.0023 eV^2. Emphasis is given to measured ratios which are not affected by Monte Carlo (MC) absolute normalization; a discussion is made on MC uncertainties.

description: We review motivations, definition, approaches, and methodology for unsupervised cross-lingual learning and call for a more rigorous position in each of them. An existing rationale for such research is based on the lack of parallel data for many of the world's languages. However, we argue that a scenario without any parallel data and abundant monolingual data is unrealistic in practice. We also discuss different training signals that have been used in previous work, which depart from the pure unsupervised setting. We then describe common methodological issues in tuning and evaluation of unsupervised cross-lingual models and present best practices. Finally, we provide a unified outlook for different types of research in this area (i.e., cross-lingual word embeddings, deep multilingual pretraining, and unsupervised machine translation) and argue for comparable evaluation of these models.

description: We introduce a new non-Hermitian random matrix model for QCD with a baryon chemical potential. This model is a direct chiral extension of a previously studied model that interpolates between the Wigner-Dyson and Ginibre ensembles. We present exact results for all eigenvalue correlations for any number of quark flavors using the orthogonal polynomial method. We also find that the parameters of the model can be scaled to remove the effects of the chemical potential from all thermodynamic quantities until the finite density phase transition is reached. This makes the model and its extensions well suited for studying the phase diagram of QCD.

description: Fluorite-type Zr based oxides with the composition Ga2Zr2−xWxO7 (x = 0, 0.05, 0.1, 0.15 and 0.2) were prepared using the citrate technique. Appropriate characterizations of all prepared materials were carried out. X-ray diffraction clarified that the undoped and W-doped Ga2Zr2O7 samples were crystallized in the cubic fluorite phase structure. The average particle size of the samples was in the range of (3–8 nm). The lowest band gap (1.7 eV) and the highest surface area (124.3 m2 g−1) were recorded for Ga2Zr0.85W0.15O7. The pohotocatalytic impacts of the prepared systems were studied by removal of crystal violet (CV) dye employing visible light illumination and taking into consideration the initial dye concentrations, duration of visible irradiation treatment, catalysts dose and the dopant concentration. The obtained results showed higher dye removal with the boost of the catalyst dosage. W doping shifted the absorption to the visible light range by decreasing the band gap from 4.95 eV for parent Ga2Zr2O7 to 1.7 eV for 15 mol % tungsten doped Ga2Zr2O7 enhancing the photocatalytic decolourization of CV from 4.2% to 83.6% for undoped and 15 mol % W doped Ga2Zr2O7, respectively, at optimum operating conditions (pH 9, 1 g l−1 catalyst dose and 300 min) while heavily doped W sample containing 20 mol % W showed lower removal than 15 mol % W doped Ga2Zr2O7. Complete CV degradation using 15 mol % W doped Ga2Zr2O7 was attained by the assistant of 25 mmol l−1 hydrogen peroxide. The reaction is aligned to pseudo-first-order kinetic. Different scavengers were introduced to decide the significance of the reactive species in CV degradation. {\rm O}_2^{- \bullet } and h+ had the major role in the degradation of CV by Ga2Zr2−xWxO7 system compared with HO•.

description: Dirty data and deceptive design practices can undermine, invert, or invalidate the purported messages of charts and graphs. These failures can arise silently: a conclusion derived from a particular visualization may look plausible unless the analyst looks closer and discovers an issue with the backing data, visual specification, or their own assumptions. We term such silent but significant failures "visualization mirages". We describe a conceptual model of mirages and show how they can be generated at every stage of the visual analytics process. We adapt a methodology from software testing, "metamorphic testing", as a way of automatically surfacing potential mirages at the visual encoding stage of analysis through modifications to the underlying data and chart specification. We show that metamorphic testing can reliably identify mirages across a variety of chart types with relatively little prior knowledge of the data or the domain.
