description: Teleconnections are well known to affect weather conditions of various areas around the globe through complicated atmospheric mechanisms. The objective of this thesis is to test the effect of various – sole or combinations of them - teleconnection indices on the precipitation of Messara water basin in Crete. Due to the complex nonlinear correlations that teleconnections and precipitation exhibit, along with partly undefined physical mechanism of teleconnections, Artificial Neural Networks were used to establish correlations.

description: We present a precise theoretical prediction for the signal-background interference process of $gg(\to h^*) \to ZZ$, which is useful to constrain the Higgs boson decay width and to measure Higgs couplings to the SM particles. The approximate NNLO $K$-factor is in the range of $2.05-2.45$ ($1.85-2.25$), depending on $M_{ZZ}$, at the 8 (13) TeV LHC. And the soft gluon resummation can increase the approximate NNLO result by about $10\%$ at both the 8 TeV and 13 TeV LHC. The theoretical uncertainties including the scale, uncalculated multi-loop amplitudes of the background and PDF$+α_s$ are roughly $\mathcal{O}(10\%)$ at ${\rm NNLL'}$. We also confirm that the approximate $K$-factors in the interference and the pure signal processes are the same.

description: Ni–Ga bilayers are a versatile platform for exploring the competition between strongly antagonistic ferromagnetic and superconducting phases. We characterize the impact of this competition on the transport properties of highly-ballistic Al/Al2O3(/EuS)/Ni–Ga tunnel junctions from both experimental and theoretical points of view. While the conductance spectra of junctions comprising Ni (3 nm)–Ga (60 nm) bilayers can be well understood within the framework of earlier results, which associate the emerging main conductance maxima with the junction films' superconducting gaps, thinner Ni (1.6 nm)–Ga (30 nm) bilayers entail completely different physics, and give rise to novel large-bias (when compared to the superconducting gap of the thin Al film as a reference) conductance-peak subseries that we term conductance shoulders. These conductance shoulders might attract considerable attention also in similar magnetic superconducting bilayer junctions, as we predict them to offer an experimentally well-accessible transport signature of superconducting triplet pairings that are induced around the interface of the Ni–Ga bilayer. We further substantiate this claim performing complementary polarized neutron reflectometry measurements on the bilayers, from which we deduce (1) a nonuniform magnetization structure in Ga in a several nanometer-thick area around the Ni–Ga boundary and can simultaneously (2) satisfactorily fit the obtained data only considering the paramagnetic Meissner response scenario. While the latter provides independent experimental evidence of induced triplet superconductivity inside the Ni–Ga bilayer, the former might serve as the first experimental hint of its potential microscopic physical origin. Finally, we introduce a simple phenomenological toy model to confirm also from the theoretical standpoint that superconducting triplet pairings around the Ni–Ga interface can indeed lead to the experimentally observed conductance shoulders, which convinces that our claims are robust and physically justified. Arranging our work in a broader context, we expect that Ni–Ga-bilayer junctions could have a strong potential for future superconducting-spintronics applications whenever an efficient engineering of triplet-pairing superconductivity is required.

description: Time dependent perturbations of states in the holographic dual of a 3+1 dimensional confining theory are considered. The perturbations are induced by varying the coupling to the theory's most relevant operator. The dual gravitational theory belongs to a class of Einstein-dilaton theories which exhibit a mass gap at zero temperature and a first order deconfining phase transition at finite temperature. The perturbation is realized in various thermal bulk solutions by specifying time dependent boundary conditions on the scalar, and we solve the fully backreacted Einstein-dilaton equations of motion subject to these boundary conditions. We compute the characteristic time scale of many thermalization processes, noting that in every case we examine, this time scale is determined by the imaginary part of the lowest lying quasi-normal mode of the final state black brane. We quantify the dependence of this final state on parameters of the quench, and construct a dynamical phase diagram. Further support for a universal scaling regime in the abrupt quench limit is provided.

description: In vitro models provide an important platform for the investigation of cellular growth and atrophy to inform, or extend mechanistic insights from, logistically challenging in vivo trials. Although these models allow for the identification of candidate mechanistic pathways, many models involve supraphysiological dosages, nonphysiological conditions, or experimental changes relating to individual proteins or receptors, all of which limit translation to human trials. To overcome these drawbacks, the use of ex vivo human plasma and serum has been used in cellular models to investigate changes in myotube hypertrophy, cellular protein synthesis, anabolic and catabolic markers in response to differing age, disease states, and nutrient status. However, there are currently no concurrent guidelines outlining the optimal methodology for this model. This review discusses the key methodological considerations surrounding the use of ex vivo plasma and serum with a focus in application to skeletal muscle cell lines (i.e., C2C12, L6, and LHCN-M2) and human primary skeletal muscle cells (HSMCs) as a means to investigate molecular signaling in models of atrophy and hypertrophy, alongside future directions

description: Various project management approaches do not consider the impact that uncertainties have on the project. The identified threats by uncertainty in a projec day-to-day are real and immediate and the expectations in a project are often high. The project manager faces a dilemma: decisions must be made in the present about future situations which are inherently uncertain. The use of uncertainty management in project can be a determining factor for the project success. This paper presents a systematic review about uncertainties management in software projects and a guide is proposed based on the review. It aims to present the best practices to manage uncertainties in software projects in a structured way including techniques and strategies to uncertainties containment.

description: Young leaves from the mature plant germinated from a N. lutea seed from the USA (longitude=-85°2’21’’, latitude=30°74’10’’) were harvested for DNA sequencing. Total genomic DNA was isolated from fresh leaves using the DNeasy Plant Kit (Qiagen, Germany). For checking the DNA size distribution, purity and concentration, the electrophoresis, spectrophotometry and fluorimetry were performed with 0.75% agarose gels, NanoDrop 1000 and Qubit dsDNA BR Assay Kit (Thermo Fisher Scientific). A total of 10 ug high molecular weight DNA was processed for shearing, end-repair, dA-tailing and adapter ligation using the Ligation Sequencing Kit 1D (ONT), NEB Next U1tra ⅡEnd Repair/dA-Tailing Module (New England Biolabs), Blunt/TA Ligase Master Mix (NEB) and Library Loading Bead Kit (ONT) to construct the library for loading into the MinION flow cell (R9.4.1, ONT) according to ONT’s instructions for 1D Lambda Control Experiment. For each DNA library, the sequencing was performed in Oxford Nanopore Technologies PromethION with the MinKNOW software for approximately 48h. After filtering the sequences with high-quality scores, the resulting FAST5 files were converted to FASTQ file with the Albacore basecaller (version 2.1.3) and deposited in the NCBI database. Additionally, we also generated approximately 50x Illumina short reads for assembling and polishing during genome hybrid assembly . Samples were dried with silica gel and kept in the refrigerator. Genomic DNA was extracted from dried leaves by the CTAB method. For DNA library construction, the DNA was cut into 250~280 bp fragments using a NEBNext® Ultra DNA Library Prep Kit for Illumina (NEB, USA) according to the manufacturer’s protocol. Paired-end reads (150 bp for each end) of each sample were sequenced on an Illumina NovaSeq. 6000 (San Diego, CA, USA). More than 10 Gb data was sequenced to 50 Gb for the hybrid-genome assembly of N. lutea.

description: We report on an observation of the Galactic black hole candidate GRS 1739-278 during its 2014 outburst, obtained with NuSTAR. The source was captured at the peak of a rising "low/hard" state, at a flux of ~0.3 Crab. A broad, skewed iron line and disk reflection spectrum are revealed. Fits to the sensitive NuSTAR spectra with a number of relativistically blurred disk reflection models yield strong geometrical constraints on the disk and hard X-ray "corona". Two models that explicitly assume a "lamppost" corona find its base to have a vertical height above the black hole of h = 5 (+7, -2) GM/c^2 and h = 18 +/-4 GM/c^2 (90% confidence errors); models that do not assume a "lamppost" return emissivity profiles that are broadly consistent with coronae of this size. Given that X-ray microlensing studies of quasars and reverberation lags in Seyferts find similarly compact coronae, observations may now signal that compact coronae are fundamental across the black hole mass scale. All of the models fit to GRS 1739-278 find that the accretion disk extends very close to the black hole - the least stringent constraint is r = 5 (+3,-4) GM/c^2. Only two of the models deliver meaningful spin constraints, but a = 0.8 +/-0.2 is consistent with all of the fits. Overall, the data provide especially compelling evidence of an association between compact hard X-ray coronae and the base of relativistic radio jets in black holes.

description: We provide a fully analytical microscopic theory for the proton correlations in water ice $I_h$. We compute the full diffuse elastic neutron scattering structure factor, which we find to be in excellent quantitative agreement with Monte Carlo simulations. It is also in remarkable qualitative agreement with experiment, in the absence of any fitting parameters. Our theory thus provides a tractable analytical starting point to account for more delicate features of the proton correlations in water ice. In addition, it directly determines an effective field theory of water ice as a topological phase.

description: Context: Agility at the business level requires Information Technology (IT) environment flexible and customizable, as well as effective and responsive governance in order to deliver value faster, better, and cheaper to the business. Objective: To understand better this context, our paper seeks to investigate how the domain of agile governance has evolved, as well as to derive implications for research and practice. Method: We conducted a systematic review about the state of art of the agile governance up to and including 2013. Our search strategy identified 1992 studies in 10 databases, of which 167 had the potential to answer our research questions. Results: We organized the studies into four major groups: software engineering, enterprise, manufacturing and multidisciplinary; classifying them into 16 emerging categories. As a result, the review provides a convergent definition for agile governance, six meta- principles, and a map of findings organized by topic and classified by relevance and convergence. Conclusion: The found evidence lead us to believe that agile governance is a relatively new, wide and multidisciplinary area focused on organizational performance and competitiveness that needs to be more intensively studied. Finally, we made improvements and additions to the methodological approach for systematic reviews and qualitative studies.

description: Protein halogenation is a common non-enzymatic post-translational modification contributing to aging, oxidative stress-related diseases and cancer. Here, we report a genetically encodable halogenation of tyrosine residues in a reconstituted prokaryotic filamentous cell-division protein (FtsZ) as a platform to elucidate the implications of halogenation that can be extrapolated to living systems of much higher complexity. We show how single halogenations can fine-tune protein structures and dynamics of FtsZ with subtle perturbations collectively amplified by the process of FtsZ self-organization. Based on experiments and theories, we have gained valuable insights into the mechanism of halogen influence. The bending of FtsZ structures occurs by affecting surface charges and internal domain distances and is reflected in the decline of GTPase activities by reducing GTP binding energy during polymerization. Our results point to a better understanding of the physiological and pathological effects of protein halogenation and may contribute to the development of potential diagnostic tools.

description: The post-transfer developmental capacity of bovine somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) blastocysts is reduced, implying the still presence of abnormalities in the regulation of gene expression even though they can survive to blastocyst stage. Chromatin accessibility provides valuable information on the regulatory elements and gene transcription activity, which has heretofore been largely unexplored in somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) embryos. To investigate the abnormalities in SCNT blastocysts, we performed single-cell ATAC-seq on in vivo and SCNT blastocysts to segregate lineages and demonstrate the aberrant chromatin accessibility in SCNT blastocysts.

description: Observational data from the Cassini spacecraft are used to obtain a chemical model of ocean water on Enceladus. The model indicates that Enceladus' ocean is a Na-Cl-CO3 solution with an alkaline pH of ~11-12. The dominance of aqueous NaCl is a feature that Enceladus' ocean shares with terrestrial seawater, but the ubiquity of dissolved Na2CO3 suggests that soda lakes are more analogous to the Enceladus ocean. The high pH implies that the hydroxide ion should be relatively abundant, while divalent metals should be present at low concentrations owing to buffering by clays and carbonates on the ocean floor. The high pH is interpreted to be a key consequence of serpentinization of chondritic rock, as predicted by prior geochemical reaction path models; although degassing of CO2 from the ocean may also play a role depending on the efficiency of mixing processes in the ocean. Serpentinization leads to the generation of H2, a geochemical fuel that can support both abiotic and biological synthesis of organic molecules such as those that have been detected in Enceladus' plume. Serpentinization and H2 generation should have occurred on Enceladus, like on the parent bodies of aqueously altered meteorites; but it is unknown whether these critical processes are still taking place, or if Enceladus' rocky core has been completely altered by past hydrothermal activity. The high pH also suggests that the delivery of oxidants from the surface to the ocean has not been significant, and the rocky core did not experience partial melting and igneous differentiation. On the other hand, the pH is compatible with life as we know it; life on Earth may have begun under similar conditions, and serpentinites on Earth support microbial communities that are centered on H2 that is provided by water-rock reactions.

description: Using molecular dynamics simulations, we investigate systematically the water permeation properties across the single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) in the presence of the terahertz electric field (TEF). With the TEF normal to the nanotube, the fracture of the hydrogen bonds results in the giant peak of net fluxes across the SWCNT with a three-fold enhancement centered around 14THz. The phenomenon is attributed to the resonant mechanisms, characterized by librational, rotational, and rotation-induced responses of in-tube polar water molecules to the TEF. For the TEF along the symmetry axis of the nanotube, the vortical modes for resonances and consequently the enhancement of net fluxes are greatly suppressed by the alignment of polar water along the symmetry axis, which characterizes the quasi one-dimensional feature of the SWCNT nicely. The resonances of water molecules in the TEF can have potential applications in the high-flux device designs used for various purposes.

description: The study reveals the relation between the “Self-concept” and a contest of professional skills for teachers, which indicates the compliance of the “Self-concept” components with the criteria for assessing professional skills of a teacher. Such compliance allows us to consider contests of professional skills as a means of improving teachers’ qualification. The relevance of the research issue is due to the growing public attention to contests of professional skills, and this is the reason why such contests are of signifi-cant importance for teachers as representatives of a socially vital and indemand profession in modern Russia. The results of the study are presented in the form of a diagram showing the relation between “Self-concept” levels and the corresponding criteria for assessing professional skills of a teaching staff using the example of the contest “Preschool Teacher of the Year”. It allows to lay out priorities in upgrading skills of a teaching staff taking into account their individual characteristics. The results of the research demonstrate that contests of professional skills are universal for upgrading teaching skills.

description: In order to simulate the mechanical behavior of large structures assembled from thin composite panels, we propose a coupling technique which substitutes local 3D models for the global plate model in the critical zones where plate modeling is inadequate. The transition from 3D to 2D is based on stress and displacement distributions associated with Saint-Venant problems which are precalculated automatically for a simple 3D cell. The hybrid plate/3D model is obtained after convergence of a series of iterations between a global plate model of the structure and localized 3D models of the critical zones. This technique is nonintrusive because the global calculations can be carried out using commercial software. Evaluation tests show that convergence is fast and that the resulting hybrid model is very close to a full 3D model.

description: One significant barrier to student success in courses across the curriculum is the rising cost of access to course materials (Colvard et al., 2018.) While Open Educational Resources and other free materials have seen increased use in recent years, not all faculty and students are entirely comfortable or familiar with their use (Anderson & Cuttler, 2020; Hilton, 2019). Yet there is at least some evidence suggesting that turning to open materials not only improves access to education by removing cost as a barrier, but also contributes to the improvement of student learning (Hilton, 2020; Colvard et al. 2018). This poster presents an example of a service course deliberately designed to use OER and Open Access texts and other free tools in a flipped classroom model, built with accessibility (very broadly understood) in mind: ETH 121 (Introduction to Ethics), first taught in the Spring 2022 term at the University of Evansville. This presentation also offers some reflections on how the class worked in practice and some considerations for designing future open-valued courses. Of particular note here is the pervasiveness of the open ethos – while affordability is an important part of improving access, it may be most powerful as a part of a broader emphasis on accessibility relative to the possibilities inherent in universal design and different kinds of assessment practice. The primary drive behind sharing and reflecting on this course design is twofold: 1. To suggest/model an approach to using open resources that improves access in a way that makes the process of designing an “open” class itself a bit more accessible (in several senses) for both faculty and students 2. To actively promote Open Educational Resources, Open Access materials, and other access-promoting tools and practices.

description: Here we show that the zero point energy associated to the quantum spin fluctuations of a non- collinear spin texture produce Casimir-like magnetic fields. We study the effect of these Casimir fields on the topologically protected non-collinear spin textures known as skyrmions. We calculate the zero point energy, to the lowest order in the spin wave expansion, in a Heisenberg model with Dzyalonshinkii-Moriya interactions chosen so that the classical ground state displays skyrmion textures, that disappear upon application of a strong enough magnetic field. Our calculations show that the Casimir magnetic field contributes a 10 percent of the total Zeeman energy necessary to delete the skyrmion texture with an applied field, and is thereby an observable effect.

description: Traditional tree search algorithms supply a blueprint for modeling problem solving behaviour. A diverse spectrum of problems can be formulated in terms of tree search. Quantum computation, in particular Grover's algorithm, has aroused a great deal of interest since it allows for a quadratic speedup to be obtained in search procedures. In this work we consider the impact of incorporating classical search concepts alongside Grover's algorithm into a hybrid quantum search system. Some of the crucial points examined include: (1) the reverberations of contemplating the use of non-constant branching factors; (2) determining the consequences of incorporating an heuristic perspective into a quantum tree search model.

description: The first study of W boson production in pPb collisions is presented, for bosons decaying to a muon or electron, and a neutrino. The measurements are based on a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 34.6 inverse nanobarns at a nucleon-nucleon centre-of-mass energy of sqrt(s[NN]) = 5.02 TeV, collected by the CMS experiment. The W boson differential cross sections, lepton charge asymmetry, and forward-backward asymmetries are measured for leptons of transverse momentum exceeding 25 GeV, and as a function of the lepton pseudorapidity in the abs(eta[lab]) < 2.4 range. Deviations from the expectations based on currently available parton distribution functions are observed, showing the need for including W boson data in nuclear parton distribution global fits.

description: We investigate the holographic DC and Hall conductivity in massive Einstein-Maxwell-Dilaton (EMD) gravity. Two special EMD backgrounds are considered explicitly. One is dyonic Reissner-Nordstr$\ddot{o}$m-AdS (RN-AdS) geometry and the other one is hyperscaling violation AdS (HV-AdS) geometry. We find that the linear-T resistivity and quadratic-T inverse Hall angle can be simultaneously achieved in HV-AdS models, providing a hint to construct holographic models confronting with the experimental data of strange metal in future.

Incorporating geostrophic wind information for improved space-time short-term wind speed forecasting

description: Accurate short-term wind speed forecasting is needed for the rapid development and efficient operation of wind energy resources. This is, however, a very challenging problem. Although on the large scale, the wind speed is related to atmospheric pressure, temperature, and other meteorological variables, no improvement in forecasting accuracy was found by incorporating air pressure and temperature directly into an advanced space-time statistical forecasting model, the trigonometric direction diurnal (TDD) model. This paper proposes to incorporate the geostrophic wind as a new predictor in the TDD model. The geostrophic wind captures the physical relationship between wind and pressure through the observed approximate balance between the pressure gradient force and the Coriolis acceleration due to the Earth's rotation. Based on our numerical experiments with data from West Texas, our new method produces more accurate forecasts than does the TDD model using air pressure and temperature for 1- to 6-hour-ahead forecasts based on three different evaluation criteria. Furthermore, forecasting errors can be further reduced by using moving average hourly wind speeds to fit the diurnal pattern. For example, our new method obtains between 13.9% and 22.4% overall mean absolute error reduction relative to persistence in 2-hour-ahead forecasts, and between 5.3% and 8.2% reduction relative to the best previous space-time methods in this setting.

Primal and dual active-set methods for convex quadratic programming

description: Computational methods are proposed for solving a convex quadratic program (QP). Active-set methods are defined for a particular primal and dual formulation of a QP with general equality constraints and simple lower bounds on the variables. In the first part of the paper, two methods are proposed, one primal and one dual. These methods generate a sequence of iterates that are feasible with respect to the equality constraints associated with the optimality conditions of the primal-dual form. The primal method maintains feasibility of the primal inequalities while driving the infeasibilities of the dual inequalities to zero. The dual method maintains feasibility of the dual inequalities while moving to satisfy the primal inequalities. In each of these methods, the search directions satisfy a KKT system of equations formed from Hessian and constraint components associated with an appropriate column basis. The composition of the basis is specified by an active-set strategy that guarantees the nonsingularity of each set of KKT equations. Each of the proposed methods is a conventional active-set method in the sense that an initial primal- or dual-feasible point is required. In the second part of the paper, it is shown how the quadratic program may be solved as a coupled pair of primal and dual quadratic programs created from the original by simultaneously shifting the simple-bound constraints and adding a penalty term to the objective function. Any conventional column basis may be made optimal for such a primal-dual pair of shifted-penalized problems. The shifts are then updated using the solution of either the primal or the dual shifted problem. An obvious application of this approach is to solve a shifted dual QP to define an initial feasible point for the primal (or vice versa). The computational performance of each of the proposed methods is evaluated on a set of convex problems.
