description: We present a low-resource and robust optical implementation of the four-dimensional Grover coin, a four-port linear-optical scatterer that augments the low dimensionality of a regular beam-splitter. While prior realizations of the Grover coin required a potentially unstable ring-cavity to be formed, this version of the scatterer does not exhibit any internal interference. When this Grover coin is placed in another system, it can be used for interferometry with a higher-dimensional set of optical field modes. In this case, we formed a Grover-Michelson interferometer, which results when the traditional beam-splitter of a Michelson interferometer is replaced with a four-port Grover coin. This replacement has been shown to remove a phase parameter redundancy in the original Michelson system, now allowing continuous tuning of the shape and slope of the interference pattern. We observed an intensity interferogram with $97\%$ visibility and a phase sensitivity more than an order of magnitude larger than a regular Michelson interferometer. Because this device is readily formed with nearly the same number of optomechanical resources as a Michelson interferometer, but can outperform it drastically in phase delay evaluation, it has a great potential to improve many interferometric sensing and control systems.

description: The optical luminous quasar PG0043+039 has not been detected before in deep X-ray observations indicating the most extreme optical-to-X-ray slope index $α_{ox}$ of all quasars. This study aims to detect PG0043+039 in a deep X-ray exposure. Furthermore, we wanted to check out whether this object shows specific spectral properties in other frequency bands. We took deep X-ray (XMM-Newton), far-ultraviolet (HST), and optical (HET, SALT telescopes) spectra of PG0043+039 simultaneously in July 2013. We just detected PG0043+039 in our deep X-ray exposure. The steep $α_{ox} = -2.37 {\pm} 0.05$ gradient is consistent with an unusual steep gradient $F_ν {\sim} ν^α$ with $α = -2.67 {\pm} 0.02$ seen in the UV/far-UV continuum. The optical/UV continuum flux has a clear maximum near 2500 Å. The UV spectrum is very peculiar because it shows broad humps in addition to known emission lines. A modeling of these observed humps with cyclotron lines can explain their wavelength positions, their relative distances, and their relative intensities. We derive plasma temperatures of T ${\sim}$ 3keV and magnetic field strengths of B ${\sim}$ 2 ${\times} 10^8$ G for the line-emitting regions close to the black hole.

description: There are concerns about the health effects of formaldehyde exposure, including carcinogenicity, in light of elevated indoor air levels in new homes and occupational exposures experienced by workers in health care, embalming, manufacturing and other industries. Epidemiological studies suggest that formaldehyde exposure is associated with an increased risk of leukemia. However, the biological plausibility of these findings has been questioned because limited information is available on formaldehyde’s ability to disrupt hematopoietic function. Our objective was to determine if formaldehyde exposure disrupts hematopoietic function and produces leukemia-related chromosome changes in exposed humans. We examined the ability of formaldehyde to disrupt hematopoiesis in a study of 94 workers in China (43 exposed to formaldehyde and 51 frequency-matched controls) by measuring complete blood counts and peripheral stem/progenitor cell colony formation. Further, myeloid progenitor cells, the target for leukemogenesis, were cultured from the workers to quantify the level of leukemia-specific chromosome changes, including monosomy 7 and trisomy 8, in metaphase spreads of these cells. Among exposed workers, peripheral blood cell counts were significantly lowered in a manner consistent with toxic effects on the bone marrow and leukemia-specific chromosome changes were significantly elevated in myeloid blood progenitor cells. These findings suggest that formaldehyde exposure can have an adverse impact on the hematopoietic system and that leukemia induction by formaldehyde is biologically plausible, which heightens concerns about its leukemogenic potential from occupational and environmental exposures.

description: Structure and dynamics at soft-matter interfaces play an important role in nature and technical applications. Optical single-molecule investigations are non-invasive and capable to reveal heterogeneities at the nanoscale. In this work we develop an autocorrelation function (ACF) approach to retrieve tracer diffusion parameters obtained from fluorescence correlation spectroscopy (FCS) experiments in thin liquid films at reflecting substrates. This approach then is used to investigate structure and dynamics in 100 nm thick 8CB liquid crystal films on silicon wafers with five different oxide thicknesses. We find a different extension of the structural reorientation of 8CB at the solid-liquid interface for thin and for thick oxide. For the thin oxides, the perylenediimide tracer diffusion dynamics in general agrees with the hydrodynamic modeling using no-slip boundary conditions with only a small deviation close to the substrate, while a considerably stronger decrease of the interfacial tracer diffusion is found for the thick oxides.

COXIELLA BURNETII INFECTION IN DAIRY COWS AND GOATS: ASSESSMENT OF DIAGNOSTIC METHODS, AND EVALUATION OF IMMUNE RESPONSE IN SHEDDERS
Creators: name: BARBERIO, ANTONIO
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2016

description: Q fever is an infective, contagious and zoonotic disease caused by Coxiella burnetii, an obligate intracellular bacterium. The first goal of this research was to assess the efficacy of a diagnostic strategy based on real-time PCR (r-t PCR) assays on bulk tank milk (BTM) for the detection of infected dairy herds/flocks, with the aim of estimating the prevalence of Q fever infection in dairy herds and in goats flocks. The second goal was to evaluate the dynamics of the antibodies response and the C. burnetii excretion in infected animals. The sensitivity and specificity of a single r-t PCR test on BTM were evaluated using a control-case study in dairy herds and goat flocks. To study the C. burnetii transmission in dairy herds and goats flocks a longitudinal study was performed. The sensitivity and specificity of BTM r-t PCR in dairy herds were respectively equal to 0.5 and 1, and in dairy flocks 0.8 and 1. The results highlighted in dairy cows a great gap between the seroprevalence and the percentage of shedders found in the herds. The seroprevalence was on average 30,6%, while the percentage of shedders was at least 13% and the percentage of strong shedders was only 1,7%. We observed also the presence of 14 cows shedding C. burnetii in milk without an appreciable serological response. Shedding in feces was sporadic and only 9 cows were found to shed the bacterium occasionally through this route. The goats sampled were 257, coming from 3 flocks very different in size, ranging from 12 to 171 goats. The shedders of C. burnetii in milk were 59 (23%), the ELISA seropositive goats 177 (69%), the CFT seropositive goats 11 (4%). The percentage of shedders in milk was very different among the flocks, ranging from 100% of farm 2 to 1% of farm 3. Shedding of C. burnetii in stools was detected only occasionally in flocks 2 and 3, while in flock 1 at 2nd sampling 15 positives goats were detected. The great majority of ELISA seropositive goats kept this status throughout the study time.

EFFECT OF STEROLS AND SPHINGOLIPIDS DEPRIVATION ON POLLEN TUBE GROWTH IN NICOTIANA TABACUM (L.).
Creators: name: STROPPA, NADIA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2021

description: In Angiosperms, pollen tube can be considered a safe route to transport sperm cells in proximity of the female gamethophyte and its correct growth is necessary for a successful fertilization. Pollen tubes are highly specialized cells which follow an extreme form of polar growth, known as tip growth, based on transport of post-Golgi secretory vesicles (SVs) to the apical region where they fuse with a restricted area of the plasma membrane (PM) reversing outside cell wall components and supplying new surface of PM. This polarized secretion defines an apical growth PM domain and provides a specific protein/lipid composition. Recently, in tobacco pollen tube a polarized distribution of sterols and membrane lipid rafts have been reported and isolation and characterization of detergent insoluble membranes (DIMs) revealed that the physical basis for membrane raft formation is maintained in tobacco pollen tubes. In this work, using an experimental approach which considers the disorganization of lipid rafts by disturbing sterols and sphingolipids biosynthesis, we investigated the role of lipid rafts microdomains on tip growth in pollen tubes of the model specie Nicotiana tabacum (L.). The present results highligth a role for rafts microdomains in pollen tube growth and their involvement in cytoskeleton and organelles dynamics and consequently in the regulation of the polarized secretion. Biochemical and in vivo techniques show that changes in sterols/sphingolipids ratio in pollen tubes membranes alter actin association with microsomes and dynamics of the apical actin fringe. Alterations of morphology and dynamics of RabA4d compartments lead to postulate that the clear zone could represent a hub where different secretory pathways converge and functions as a sorting compartments. Also, perturbation of lipid rafts seems to mostly affect trans Golgi network (TGN), its maturation and the development of compartments which originate from it, involved both in secretion and in degradative pathway. Altogether these results support evidences of a role for sterols and sphingolipids, not only as fundamental structural components of membranes, but also in regulating intracellular membrane morphodynamics and polar secretion in pollen tubes.

description: Most large cities are spanned by more than one transportation system. These different modes of transport have usually been studied separately: it is however important to understand the impact on urban systems of the coupling between them and we report in this paper an empirical analysis of the coupling between the street network and the subway for the two large metropolitan areas of London and New York. We observe a similar behaviour for network quantities related to quickest paths suggesting the existence of generic mechanisms operating beyond the local peculiarities of the specific cities studied. An analysis of the betweenness centrality distribution shows that the introduction of underground networks operate as a decentralising force creating congestions in places located at the end of underground lines. Also, we find that increasing the speed of subways is not always beneficial and may lead to unwanted uneven spatial distributions of accessibility. In fact, for London -- but not for New York -- there is an optimal subway speed in terms of global congestion. These results show that it is crucial to consider the full, multimodal, multi-layer network aspects of transportation systems in order to understand the behaviour of cities and to avoid possible negative side-effects of urban planning decisions.

IN VITRO AND IN VIVO APPROACHES TO STUDY OXIDATIVE STRESS, ANEMIA AND DYSBIOSIS IN CHRONIC KIDNEY DISEASE
Creators: name: ASTORI, EMANUELA

description: CKD is diagnosed when there?s a decreased kidney function shown by a GFR less than 60 ml / min (established for a reference man with 1.73 m� body surface area), or markers of kidney damage, or both, of at least 3 months duration. The severity of complications increases in parallel with the GFR decline. We focused on three comorbidities extremely common in CKD patients: oxidative stress and inflammation; anemia and dysbiosis. We investigated these CKD comorbidities both with in vitro and in vivo approaches. More in detail, regarding in vivo studies, we measured oxidative stress biomarkers in a population of ESRD patients before and after the hemodialysis treatment, comparing the results with a population of healthy subjects; we evaluated oxidative stress biomarkers in the plasma of HD patients before, during and after two type of iron treatments (intravenous and sucrosomial iron). Regarding in vitro experiments, we focused on two uremic toxins, urea and indoxyl sulphate, and we evaluated their effects on a human endothelial cell line (Human Microvascular Endothelial Cells 1, HMEC-1).

Equilibration and Approximate Conservation Laws: Dipole Oscillations and Perfect Drag of Ultracold Atoms in a Harmonic Trap
Creators: name: Bamler, Robert
name: Rosch, Achim
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Quantum Gases (cond-mat.quant-gas)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The presence of (approximate) conservation laws can prohibit the fast relaxation of interacting many-particle quantum systems. We investigate this physics by studying the center-of-mass oscillations of two species of fermionic ultracold atoms in a harmonic trap. If their trap frequencies are equal, a dynamical symmetry (spectrum generating algebra), closely related to Kohn's theorem, prohibits the relaxation of center-of-mass oscillations. A small detuning $δω$ of the trap frequencies for the two species breaks the dynamical symmetry and ultimately leads to a damping of dipole oscillations driven by inter-species interactions. Using memory-matrix methods, we calculate the relaxation as a function of frequency difference, particle number, temperature, and strength of inter-species interactions. When interactions dominate, there is almost perfect drag between the two species and the dynamical symmetry is approximately restored. The drag can either arise from Hartree potentials or from friction. In the latter case (hydrodynamic limit), the center-of-mass oscillations decay with a tiny rate, $1/τ\propto (δω)^2/Γ$, where $Γ$ is a single particle scattering rate.

description: In the realm of music recommendation, sequential recommender systems have shown promise in capturing the dynamic nature of music consumption. Nevertheless, traditional Transformer-based models, such as SASRec and BERT4Rec, while effective, encounter challenges due to the unique characteristics of music listening habits. In fact, existing models struggle to create a coherent listening experience due to rapidly evolving preferences. Moreover, music consumption is characterized by a prevalence of repeated listening, i.e., users frequently return to their favourite tracks, an important signal that could be framed as individual or personalized popularity.
 This paper addresses these challenges by introducing a novel approach that incorporates personalized popularity information into sequential recommendation. By combining user-item popularity scores with model-generated scores, our method effectively balances the exploration of new music with the satisfaction of user preferences. Experimental results demonstrate that a Personalized Most Popular recommender, a method solely based on user-specific popularity, outperforms existing state-of-the-art models. Furthermore, augmenting Transformer-based models with personalized popularity awareness yields superior performance, showing improvements ranging from 25.2% to 69.8%.

description: The Chelonaplysilla genus possesses a numerous bioactive diterpenes with anti-inflammatory and cytotoxic effects. The current study aimed to assess the chemical composition of C. erecta crude extract (CECE) based on its metabolomic profile that has been integrated with neural network-based virtual screening and molecular docking using liquid chromatography with high resolution mass spectrometry (LCHR-MS). In addition to the estimation of the antitumor activity of the same extract via anti-interleukin-17A (IL-17) action, along with its formulated spanlastics preparation. The CECE markedly displayed growth inhibition for HepG-2 cells at IC50 value 16.5 ± 0.8 μg/mL, whereas the spanlastic formulation revealed more eminent antitumor effect against Caco-2 cells (IC50 = 2.8 ± 0.03 μg/mL). Among the dereplicated compounds, macfarlandin F (16) and pourewanone (25) demonstrated the highest potential with co-crystallized ligand 63 O within the active site of IL-17A in molecular docking studies. These findings rationalized the antitumor mechanism of marine organism for future chemotherapeutic applications.

description: The relationship between a decaying strong turbulence and kinetic instabilities in a slowly expanding plasma is investigated using two-dimensional (2-D) hybrid expanding box simulations. We impose an initial ambient magnetic field perpendicular to the simulation box, and we start with a spectrum of large-scale, linearly-polarized, random-phase Alfvénic fluctuations which have energy equipartition between kinetic and magnetic fluctuations and vanishing correlation between the two fields. A turbulent cascade rapidly develops, magnetic field fluctuations exhibit a Kolmogorov-like power-law spectrum at large scales and a steeper spectrum at ion scales. The turbulent cascade leads to an overall anisotropic proton heating, protons are heated in the perpendicular direction, and, initially, also in the parallel direction. The imposed expansion leads to generation of a large parallel proton temperature anisotropy which is at later stages partly reduced by turbulence. The turbulent heating is not sufficient to overcome the expansion-driven perpendicular cooling and the system eventually drives the oblique firehose instability in a form of localized nonlinear wave packets which efficiently reduce the parallel temperature anisotropy. This work demonstrates that kinetic instabilities may coexist with strong plasma turbulence even in a constrained 2-D regime.

description: This paper aims to verify the effectiveness of the software implementation of the proposed algorithm in creating computer-generated images of sand mixtures using a photograph of sand as an input and its effectiveness in converting digital pictures into sand-based images out of the mixtures it generated. The method of this paper is to visually compare the photographed image of the actual mixtures to its computer-generated counterpart to verify if the mixture generation produces results as expected and compare the computer-generated sand-based images with its source to verify image reproduction maintains same image content. The results of the mixture comparison shows that the actual and the computer-generated ones have similar overall shade and color. Still, the generated one has a rougher texture and higher contrast due to the method of inheriting visual features by pixel, not by individual sand particles. The comparison of the sand-based image and its source has demonstrated the software's ability to maintain the essence of its contents during conversion while replacing its texture with the visual properties of the generated sand mixture. The result have shown that the software implementation of the proposed algorithm can effectively use the images of sand to generate images of its mixtures and use those mixture images to convert a digital picture into a computer-generated sand-based image.
