description: In this paper we derive for the first time the complete gravitational quartic-in-spin interaction of generic compact binaries at the next-to-leading order in the post-Newtonian (PN) expansion. The derivation builds on the effective field theory for gravitating spinning objects, and its recent extensions, in which new type of worldline couplings should be considered, as well as on the extension of the effective action of a spinning particle to quadratic order in the curvature. The latter extension entails a new Wilson coefficient that appears in this sector. This work pushes the precision frontier with spins at the fifth PN (5PN) order for maximally-spinning compact objects, and at the same time informs us of the gravitational Compton scattering with higher spins.

Physiological contribution of the Pseudomonas aeruginosa OprD family of porins
Creators: name: Tamber, Sandeep
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: To circumvent the permeability barrier of its outer membrane, Pseudomonas aeruginosa has evolved a series of specific porins to facilitate nutrient uptake. These channels have substrate-specific binding sites that selectively permit the passage of related classes of molecules. In this study, the identification of a novel 19 member family of porins is reported. The members of this family share a considerable degree of protein sequence conservation (46% to 57%) and fall into one of two phylogenetically distinct clusters; one bearing high similarity to the basic amino acid specific porin OprD and the other being most similar to the phenylacetic acid uptake porin, PhaK, of P. putida . The physiological contribution of this family was investigated by predicting substrates for of each homologue based on the genomic context of their genes. These predictions were then tested by performing growth curves with porin deficient mutants in minimal media containing the proposed substrate as the sole carbon source. The following substrates were identified for 7 of the 18 novel homologues: OpdB - proline, OpdC - histidine, OpdP - glycine-glutamate, OpdT - tyrosine, OpdH - cis-aconitate, OpdK--vanillate and OpdO--pyroglutamate. Functional overlap was observed between the basic amino acid specific porin, OprD, and the glycine-glutamate specific porin, OpdP, with respect to arginine transport. Thus, members of this family had diverged to take up unique substrates but had also retained some redundancy which may allow them to compensate for one another in the event of a gene loss or mutation. To gain insights regarding the evolution of this family, one homologue, OpdH, was characterized in detail. This porin was specifically induced by citrate, isocitrate and cis-aconitate through the action of the PA0756-757 two-component regulatory system and was involved in the uptake of the latter two compounds. The channel properties of OpdH differed significantly from those of OprD. OpdH demonstrated an average single channel conductance of 0.7 nS in 1 M KCl. The channel was cation selective and did not harbour a tricarboxylate specific binding site. The structural and evolutionary implications of the differences between the two porins are discussed.
Vainshtein screening for slowly rotating stars

description: We study the Vainshtein mechanism in the context of slowly rotating stars in scalar-tensor theories. While the Vainshtein screening is well established for spherically symmetric spacetimes, we examine its validity in the axisymmetric case for slowly rotating sources. We show that the deviations from the general relativity solution are small in the weak-field approximation outside the star: the solution for the frame-dragging function is the same as in general relativity at leading order. Moreover, in most cases the corrections are suppressed by powers of the Vainshtein radius provided that the screening operates in spherical symmetry. Outside the Vainshtein radius, the frame dragging function receives corrections that are not suppressed by the Vainshtein radius, but which are still subleading. This suggests that the Vainshtein mechanism in general can be extended to slowly rotating stars and that it works analogously to the static case inside the Vainshtein radius. We also study relativistic stars and show that for some theories the frame-dragging function in vacuum does not receive corrections at all, meaning that the screening is perfect outside the star.

description: In this paper, we study the location of emergency centres considering cooperative and backup coverage while natural disasters occur which can result in facility disruption. In this regard, a reliable version of cooperative covering problem is presented considering two types of candidate sites, i.e., reliable and unreliable. To achieve a fortified system against disaster, reliable candidate sites are selected from areas which are far away from the disaster harms. Furthermore, backup coverage is considered to compensate unsatisfied coverage of the demand zones due to facility disruption. The performance of the model is investigated solving numerical examples with different approaches utilising commercial software. The results confirm accurate performance of the model. They also show that both facility failure and backup coverage considerations lead to a more efficient network by incurring some additional cost.

description: Experimentally synthesized $\mathrm{MoSi_2N_4}$ (\textcolor[rgb]{0.00,0.00,1.00}{Science 369, 670-674 (2020)}) is a piezoelectric semiconductor. Here, we systematically study the large biaxial (isotropic) strain effects (0.90 to 1.10) on electronic structures and transport coefficients of monolayer $\mathrm{MoSi_2N_4}$ by density functional theory (DFT). With $a/a_0$ from 0.90 to 1.10, the energy band gap firstly increases, and then decreases, which is due to transformation of conduction band minimum (CBM). Calculated results show that the $\mathrm{MoSi_2N_4}$ monolayer is mechanically stable in considered strain range. It is found that the spin-orbital coupling (SOC) effects on Seebeck coefficient depend on the strain. In unstrained $\mathrm{MoSi_2N_4}$, the SOC has neglected influence on Seebeck coefficient. However, the SOC can produce important influence on Seebeck coefficient, when the strain is applied, for example 0.96 strain. The compressive strain can change relative position and numbers of conduction band extrema (CBE), and then the strength of conduction bands convergence can be enhanced, to the benefit of n-type $ZT_e$. Only about 0.96 strain can effectively improve n-type $ZT_e$. Our works imply that strain can effectively tune the electronic structures and transport coefficients of monolayer $\mathrm{MoSi_2N_4}$, and can motivate farther experimental exploration.

description: Rural areas in Poland have endogenous potentials which should become the drivers of sustainable local development. At the same time – as indicated by both the evolution of economic theories related to regional development, as well as researches in the field of institutional economics – the main factors determining growth and economic development are the institutional environment where economic processes are being developed and the quality of institutions per se in se. Among the latter, the quality of governance is of particular importance. It directly affects both the broadly understood institutional environment, as well as it determines the implementation of development policies. In reference to the rural areas and to the use of their endogenous resources the implementation of the rules of good governance by local authorities seems to be very important. In order to measure the quality of governance at the local level and to check how it affects the use of endogenous potentials of rural areas it was proposed to adapt the theory of good governance to the specifics of the functioning of local authorities in Poland. Also special research tools have been developed and empirical research in four locations has been carried out.

description: We calculate the current power spectrum of the gravitational waves created at the big bang (and later amplified by the different transitions during the Universe expansion) taking into account the present stage of accelerated expansion. Likewise, we determine the power spectrum in a hypothetical second dust era that would follow the present one if at some future time the dark energy, that supposedly drives the current accelerated expansion, evolved in such a way that it became dynamically equivalent to cold dark matter. The calculated power spectrum as well as the evolution of the density parameter of the waves may serve to discriminate between phases of expansion and may help ascertain the nature of dark energy.

description: We develop a theory of finite-temperature momentum-resolved tunneling spectroscopy (MRTS) for disordered, interacting two-dimensional topological-insulator edges. The MRTS complements conventional electrical transport measurement in characterizing the properties of the helical Luttinger liquid edges. Using standard bosonization technique, we study low-energy spectral function and the MRTS tunneling current, providing a detailed description controlled by disorder, interaction, and temperature, taking into account Rashba spin orbit coupling, interedge interaction and distinct edge velocities. Our theory provides a systematic description of the spectroscopic signals in the MRTS measurement and we hope will stimulate future experimental studies on the two-dimensional time-reversal invariant topological insulator.

The projection has been made for regions, sub-regions and poviats in division into urban and rural settlements and in a few variants depending on fertility rate, life expectancy as well as internal and external migrations. The scale of projections discussed in the article is nation-wide and focuses on urban and rural areas in the so called base scenario, i.e. the one which was assumed by experts to be the most probable for the projection period. They are followed by the Author’s estimates concerning the impact of the forecast population changes on the structure of the Polish population as relates to the main source of maintenance.

description: The formulation of statistical physics using light-front quantization, instead of conventional equal-time boundary conditions, has important advantages for describing relativistic statistical systems, such as heavy ion collisions. We develop light-front field theory at finite temperature and density with special attention to quantum chromodynamics. First, we construct the most general form of the statistical operator allowed by the Poincare algebra. In light-front quantization, the Green's functions of a quark in a medium can be defined in terms of just 2-component spinors and does not lead to doublers in the transverse directions. Since the theory is non-local along the light cone, we use causality arguments to construct a solution to the related zero-mode problem. A seminal property of light-front Green's functions is that they are related to parton densities in coordinate space. Namely, the diagonal and off-diagonal parton distributions measured in hard scattering experiments can be interpreted as light-front density matrices.

The impact of cell wall alterations in Mycobacterium tuberculosis on macrophage interactions and virulence
Creators: name: Lynett, Jennifer Theresa
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: While Mycobacterium tuberculosis is known to infect and persist within macrophages, the characterization of the mycobacterial gene products that are involved during host cell interactions remains incomplete. For the present study, we screened a transposon library of M. tuberculosis using a positive selection strategy to identify mutants with an enhanced binding affinity for macrophages. Our expectation was that this approach would identify genes that are involved in the maintenance of the cell wall architecture and could provide novel insights into the virulence of the organism. The initial library screen identified five mutants with transposon disruptions within genes that encode enzymes associated with lipid synthesis, a putative membrane protein and proteins with unknown functions. One mutant selected for further study contained a transposon insertion within the fadD23 gene. The mutant was found to be devoid of sulfolipid production, impaired for survival within macrophages and unable to cause disease in aerosol-infected mice. A second mutant was also characterized where the transposon insertion mapped to the Rv1505c gene which codes for a conserved hypothetical protein. This mutant also exhibited a significantly reduced rate of intracellular replication within macrophages and failed to actively replicate in vivo. However, the interpretation of the in vivo findings with the Rv1505c mutant were complicated by the fact that genetic complementation of the mutant with the wild type gene failed to demonstrate a restoration of virulence within the mouse model of infection. A second screen of the transposon library for alterations in colonial morphology resulted in the identification of a mutant with a disruption in the mtrB gene which encodes the sensor kinase of a two-component regulatory system. Studies in other mycobacterial species have also found that the inactivation of this locus leads to alterations in cell wall structure. We found that the absence of mtrB affected the distribution of the phosphatidylinositol mannosides and the phthiocerol dimyococerosates lipids of the cell envelope. In addition, the mutant was also compromised for virulence within the murine model of infection.

description: We show that facilitated spin models of cooperative dynamics introduced by Fredrickson and Andersen display on Bethe lattices a glassy behaviour similar to the one predicted by the mode-coupling theory of supercooled liquids and the dynamical theory of mean-field disordered systems. At low temperature such cooperative models show a two-step relaxation and their equilibration time diverges at a finite temperature according to a power-law. The geometric nature of the dynamical arrest corresponds to a bootstrap percolation process which leads to a phase space organization similar to the one of mean-field disordered systems. The relaxation dynamics after a subcritical quench exhibits aging and converges asymptotically to the threshold states that appear at the bootstrap percolation transition.

LRS Bianchi I model with constant expansion rate in $f(R,T)$ gravity

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: An LRS Bianchi-I space-time model is studied with constant Hubble parameter in $f(R,T)=R+2λT$ gravity. Although a single (primary) matter source is considered, an additional matter appears due to the coupling between matter and $f(R,T)$ gravity. The constraints are obtained for a realistic cosmological scenario, i.e., one obeying the null and weak energy conditions. The solutions are also extended to the case of a scalar field (normal or phantom) model, and it is found that the model is consistent with a phantom scalar field only. The coupled matter also acts as phantom matter. The study shows that if one expects an accelerating universe from an anisotropic model, then the solutions become physically relevant only at late times when the universe enters into an accelerated phase. Placing some observational bounds on the present equation of state of dark energy, $ω_0$, the behavior of $ω(z)$ is depicted, which shows that the phantom field has started dominating very recently, somewhere between $0.2\lesssim z\lesssim0.5$.

description: A lattice L is coordinatizable, if it is isomorphic to the lattice L(R) of principal right ideals of some von Neumann regular ring R. This forces L to be complemented modular. All known sufficient conditions for coordinatizability, due first to J. von Neumann, then to B. Jonsson, are first-order. Nevertheless, we prove that coordinatizability of lattices is not first-order, by finding a non-coordinatizable lattice K with a coordinatizable countable elementary extension L. This solves a 1960 problem of B. Jonsson. We also prove that there is no L\_{infinity, infinity} statement equivalent to coordinatizability. Furthermore, the class of coordinatizable lattices is not closed under countable directed unions; this solves another problem of B. Jonsson from 1962.

description: We predict that CeBi in the ferromagnetic state is a Weyl semimetal. Our calculations within density functional theory show the existence of two pairs of Weyl nodes on the momentum path $(0, 0, k_z)$ at $15$ meV} above and $100$ meV below the Fermi level. Two corresponding Fermi arcs are obtained on surfaces of mirror-symmetric (010)-oriented slabs at $E=15$ meV and both arcs are interrupted into three segments due to hybridization with a set of trivial surface bands. By studying the spin texture of surface states, we find the two Fermi arcs are strongly spin-polarized but in opposite directions, which can be detected by spin-polarized ARPES measurements. Our theoretical study of quasiparticle interference (QPI) for a nonmagnetic impurity at the Bi site also reveals several features related to the Fermi arcs. Specifically, we predict that the spin polarization of the Fermi arcs leads to a bifurcation-shaped feature only in the spin-dependent QPI spectrum, serving as a fingerprint of the Weyl nodes.

Conclusions regarding international rating agencies place them in Ukraine give grounds to assert the possibility of using international experience, particularly in terms of reforms that promote positive development in the economy. We believe that the national model needs to improve the investment attractiveness of the real fight against corruption and judicial reforms to protect investors' rights in the courts, currency regulation and development of the banking sector, effective and comprehensive tax reform.

description: Die vorliegende Diplomarbeit beschäftigt sich mit der Verbesserung der Lebensbedingungen sozial benachteiligter Landarbeiter im südlichen Kalifornien. Um die derzeitige Situation einschätzen zu können, wurden klimatische Gegebenheiten, Bewohner, Lebensbedingungen und Bauweisen intensiv untersucht und daraus ein Anforderungsprofil abgeleitet. Der Bauplatz liegt im Coachella Valley südöstlich von Los Angeles. Die Zielgruppe setzt sich vorwiegend aus mexikanischen Landarbeitern zusammen, welche derzeit in prekären Verhältnissen leben. Für den Entwurf war es wichtig, eine leistbare und klimagerechte Bauweise in einer Wüstenregion zu finden, ohne soziale Gegebenheiten zu vernachlässigen. Eine Siedlung aus 116 individuell erweiterbaren Wohnhäusern ordnet sich um ein zentrales Gemeinschaftszentrum an. Dieses dient nicht nur den Bewohnern als Anlaufstelle und Treffpunkt, sondern soll auch für die umliegenden Siedlungen Angebote schaffen. Die entworfene Siedlungsstruktur unterscheidet sich auf Grund ihrer Dichte und ihres gemeinschaftlichen Charakters von den Gated Communitys der Mittelschicht. Dies spiegelt sich auch im Umgang mit Frei-und Zwischenräumen wieder, welche zum gemeinsamen sozialen Treffpunkt der Bewohner werden.
description: The present master thesis investigates the improvement of living conditions of socially deprived farmworkers in Southern California. In order to shed light on the current situation, the project investigates the local climate and living conditions as well as architectural and building techniques. These collectively informed the required project specifications. The construction site is located southeast of Los Angeles in the Coachella Valley. The target group is mainly composed of Mexican farmworkers, who currently live there in a precarious state. It was of utmost importance for the draft to find an affordable and climate-conscious construction approach in the desert region without neglecting social conditions. Therefore, a residential area of 116 individually extendable dwellings surrounds a central community center. This does not only serve the residents as a central contact and meeting point, but also attracts neighbouring areas with the community's offers. Due to its density and communal character, the designed residential structure appears in just a position with the middle-class dominated concept of gated communities. This is mirrored in the open areas between dwellings, which turn into areas for residents to socialise.

description: Building spiking neural networks (SNNs) based on biological synaptic plasticities holds a promising potential for accomplishing fast and energy-efficient computing, which is beneficial to mobile robotic applications. However, the implementations of SNNs in robotic fields are limited due to the lack of practical training methods. In this paper, we therefore introduce both indirect and direct end-to-end training methods of SNNs for a lane-keeping vehicle. First, we adopt a policy learned using the \textcolor{black}{Deep Q-Learning} (DQN) algorithm and then subsequently transfer it to an SNN using supervised learning. Second, we adopt the reward-modulated spike-timing-dependent plasticity (R-STDP) for training SNNs directly, since it combines the advantages of both reinforcement learning and the well-known spike-timing-dependent plasticity (STDP). We examine the proposed approaches in three scenarios in which a robot is controlled to keep within lane markings by using an event-based neuromorphic vision sensor. We further demonstrate the advantages of the R-STDP approach in terms of the lateral localization accuracy and training time steps by comparing them with other three algorithms presented in this paper.

description: We consider the analytically solvable model of a Gaussian pulse tunneling through a transmission resonance with a Breit-Wigner characteristic. The solution allows for the identification of two opposite pulse propagation regimes: if the resonance is broad compared to the energetic width of the incident Gaussian pulse a weakly deformed and slightly delayed transmitted Gaussian pulse is found. In the opposite limit of a narrow resonance the dying out of the transmitted pulse is dominated by the slow exponential decay characteristic of a quasi-bound state with a long life time (decaying state). We discuss the limitation of the achievable pulse transfer rate resulting from the slow decay. Finally, it is demonstrated that for narrow resonances a small second component is superimposed to the exponential decay which leads to characteristic interference oscillations.

description: Family legend held that Frank Quenby enlisted under age and was killed shortly after doing so. His enlistment under age could only have been in 1914 if, when he enlisted he was still only 17 but claimed to be 18. He was originally in the 2nd Battalion Hertfordshire Yeomanry but was later transferred to the West Yorks Regt (Prince of Wales Own). The situation is further complicated by the fact that he is stated on the War Memorial as being 24 in 1918, which would have meant he was born in 1894, whereas the 1901 census return indicates that he was born in 1896!There is a further discrepancy in that he is on the East End Village (Hertfordshire) War Memorial as being in the Kings Own Yorkshire Light Infantry!According to "The long, long, trail", (sourced via the Internet), the 2nd Battalion was formed September 1914, and remained in UK as a training battalion until almost the end of the War, all fit men being sent as drafts to France in March 1918. This would account for the legend that Frank was killed shortly after arriving in France. He is buried at Arras, with a date of death as 21st March 1918, the Battle of St Quentin.Other sources suggest that from 1916 onward soldiers were transferred between regiments because of the catastrophic effects, particularly on some Lancashire towns, of all the young men in several adjoining streets being killed in battles such as the Somme. (The "Pals" battalions). As an example, "The History of the East Lancashire Regiment in the Great War" records that out of some 720 Accrington Pals who took part in the Battle of the Somme, 584 (over 80%) were killed, wounded or missing, with the vast majority killed. Regiments such as the Hertfordshire Yeomanry would have had similar groups of brothers, friends & neighbours since in 1914 quite possibly all the village lads who were 18 plus would have joined up together.

description: John Reid was my great, great uncle. At 16 years old John fought in the Battle of the Somme; he was at war for 4 years. The only injury he received was a gunshot wound to the arm.

John threw out all his medals and memories of the war after he returned, only keeping anti-war propaganda.

During the Second World War he refused to fight and help with the home guard.
Characteristically nilpotent Lie algebras and symplectic structures

description: We study symplectic structures on characteristically nilpotent Lie algebras (CNLAs) by computing the cohomology space $H^2(\Lg,k)$ for certain Lie algebras $\Lg$. Among these Lie algebras are filiform CNLAs of dimension $n\le 14$. It turns out that there are many examples of CNLAs which admit a symplectic structure. A generalization of a sympletic structure is an affine structure on a Lie algebra.

description: The physics of gravity on cosmological scales affects both the rate of assembly of large-scale structure, and the gravitational lensing of background light through this cosmic web. By comparing the amplitude of these different observational signatures, we can construct tests that can distinguish general relativity from its potential modifications. We used the latest weak gravitational lensing dataset from the Kilo-Degree Survey, KiDS-1000, in conjunction with overlapping galaxy spectroscopic redshift surveys BOSS and 2dFLenS, to perform the most precise existing amplitude-ratio test. We measured the associated E_G statistic with 15-20% errors, in five dz = 0.1 tomographic redshift bins in the range 0.2 < z < 0.7, on projected scales up to 100 Mpc/h. The scale-independence and redshift-dependence of these measurements are consistent with the theoretical expectation of general relativity in a Universe with matter density Omega_m = 0.27 +/- 0.04. We demonstrate that our results are robust against different analysis choices, including schemes for correcting the effects of source photometric redshift errors, and compare the performance of angular and projected galaxy-galaxy lensing statistics.

description: Generally-unbounded infinitesimal generators are studied in the context of operator topology. Beginning with the definition of seminorm, the concept of locally convex topological vector space is introduced as well as the concept of Fr{é}chet space. These are the basic concepts for defining an operator topology. Consequently, by associating the topological concepts with the convergence of sequence, a suitable mathematical framework for obtaining the logarithmic representation of infinitesimal generators is presented.
