description: We will analyze the itinerant model for ferromagnetism with both single-site and two-site electron correlations. We will include band degeneration into the model. This will allow us to consider the on-site exchange interactions in the Hamiltonian. The modified Hartree-Fock approximation for the two-site interactions will be used. This approximation will give the relative one spin band broadening with respect to the other, in addition to the shift in position of majority and minority spin bands. Next, we will use the coherent potential approximation technique (CPA) with two self-energies. One will describe the on-site correlation and the second one the inter-site correlation. We will separate from these self-energies, the linear terms arising from Hartree-Fock approximation and the higher order terms. The on-site linear term will contribute only to the effective molecular field. The inter-site linear term will contribute to the effective molecular field and to the inter-site correlation factor. The Green function technique and CPA decoupling will allow for the change in the shape of spin bands, which has been described by the correlation factors and which will decrease the kinetic energy of the system. The gain in kinetic energy due to the on-site and inter-site correlation factors will drive the ferromagnetism and significantly reduce the effective Hartree field necessary to create this ordering.

description: The well-known age-metallicity-attenuation degeneracy does not permit unique and good estimates of basic parameters of stars and stellar populations. The effects of dust can be avoided using spectral line indices, but current methods have not been able to break the age-metallicity degeneracy. Here we show that using at least two new spectral line indices defined and measured on high-resolution (R= 6000) spectra of a signal-to-noise ratio (S/N) > 10 one gets unambiguous estimates of the age and metallicity of intermediate to old stellar populations. Spectroscopic data retrieved with new astronomical facilities, e.g., X-shooter, MEGARA, and MOSAIC, can be employed to infer the physical parameters of the emitting source by means of spectral line index and index--index diagram analysis.

description: We study a new method for detecting non-universal gauge bosons $Z'$ via considering their effects on rare top decays. We calculate the contributions of the non-universal gauge bosons $Z'$ predicted by topcolor-assisted technicolor (TC2) models and flavor-universal TC2 models on the rare top decays $t\longrightarrow cV(V=g,γ,Z)$ and $t\longrightarrow cl_{i}l_{j}(l_{i}, l_{j}=τ, μ$, or $e)$. We show that the branching ratios of these processes can be significantly enhanced. Over a sizable region of the parameter space, we have $Br(t\longrightarrow cg)\sim10^{-5}$ and $Br(t\longrightarrow cττ)\sim10^{-7}$, which may approach the observable threshold of near future experiments. Non-universal gauge bosons $Z'$ may be detected via the rare top decay processes at the top-quark factories such as the CERN LHC.

description: Extraterrestrial environments encompass physicochemical conditions and habitats that are unknown on Earth, such as perchlorate-rich brines that can be at least temporarily stable on the martian surface. To better understand the potential for life in these cold briny environments, we determined the maximum salt concentrations suitable for growth (MSCg) of six different chloride and perchlorate salts at 25°C and 4°C for the extremotolerant cold- and salt-adapted bacterial strain Planococcus halocryophilus. Growth was measured through colony-forming unit (CFU) counts, while cellular and colonial phenotypic stress responses were observed through visible light, fluorescence, and scanning electron microscopy. Our data show the following: (1) The tolerance to high salt concentrations can be increased through a stepwise inoculation toward higher concentrations. (2) Ion-specific factors are more relevant for the growth limitation of P. halocryophilus in saline solutions than single physicochemical parameters like ionic strength or water activity. (3) P. halocryophilus shows the highest microbial sodium perchlorate tolerance described so far. However, (4) MSCg values are higher for all chlorides compared to perchlorates. (5) The MSCg for calcium chloride was increased by lowering the temperature from 25°C to 4°C, while sodium- and magnesium-containing salts can be tolerated at 25°C to higher concentrations than at 4°C. (6) Depending on salt type and concentration, P. halocryophilus cells show distinct phenotypic stress responses such as novel types of colony morphology on agar plates and biofilm-like cell clustering, encrustation, and development of intercellular nanofilaments. This study, taken in context with previous work on the survival of extremophiles in Mars-like environments, suggests that high-concentrated perchlorate brines on Mars might not be habitable to any present organism on Earth, but extremophilic microorganisms might be able to evolve thriving in such environments.

description: The CAIRNS (Cluster And Infall Region Nearby Survey) project is a spectroscopic survey of the infall regions surrounding eight nearby, rich, X-ray luminous clusters of galaxies. We collect 15665 redshifts (3471 new or remeasured) within \sim 5-10 Mpc of the centers of the clusters, making it the largest study of the infall regions of clusters. We determine cluster membership and the mass profiles of the clusters based on the phase space distribution of the galaxies. All of the clusters display decreasing velocity dispersion profiles. The mass profiles are fit well by functional forms based on numerical simulations but exclude an isothermal sphere. Specifically, NFW and Hernquist models provide good descriptions of cluster mass profiles to their turnaround radii. Our sample shows that the predicted infall pattern is ubiquitous in rich, X-ray luminous clusters over a large mass range. The caustic mass estimates are in excellent agreement with independent X-ray estimates at small radii and with virial estimates at intermediate radii. The mean ratio of the caustic mass to the X-ray mass is 1.03\pm0.11 and the mean ratio of the caustic mass to the virial mass (when corrected for the surface pressure term) is 0.93\pm0.07. We further demonstrate that the caustic technique provides reasonable mass estimates even in merging clusters.

description: Let $\ell$ be a length function on a group G, and let $M_{\ell}$ denote the operator of pointwise multiplication by $\ell$ on $\bell^2(G)$. Following Connes, $M_{\ell}$ can be used as a ``Dirac'' operator for $C_r^*(G)$. It defines a Lipschitz seminorm on $C_r^*(G)$, which defines a metric on the state space of $C_r^*(G)$. We show that if G is a hyperbolic group and if $\ell$ is a word-length function on G, then the topology from this metric coincides with the weak-* topology (our definition of a ``compact quantum metric space''). We show that a convenient framework is that of filtered $C^*$-algebras which satisfy a suitable `` Haagerup-type'' condition. We also use this framework to prove an analogous fact for certain reduced free products of $C^*$-algebras.

description: Context: Asteroseismic measurements reveal that an unknown efficient angular momentum (AM) transport mechanism is needed for subgiant and red giant stars. A revised prescription for AM transport by the magnetic Tayler instability has been recently proposed as a possible candidate for such a missing mechanism. Results: The revised prescription for the transport by the Tayler instability leads to low core rotation rates after the main sequence that are in better global agreement with asteroseismic measurements than those predicted by models with purely hydrodynamic processes or with the original Tayler-Spruit dynamo. A detailed comparison with asteroseismic data shows that the rotational properties of at most two of the six subgiants can be correctly reproduced by models accounting for this revised magnetic transport process. This result is obtained independently of the value adopted for the calibration parameter in this prescription. We also find that this transport by the Tayler instability faces difficulties in simultaneously reproducing asteroseismic measurements available for subgiant and red giant stars. The low values of the calibration parameter needed to correctly reproduce the rotational properties of two of the six subgiants lead to core rotation rates during the red giant phase that are too high. Inversely, the higher values of this parameter needed to reproduce the core rotation rates of red giants lead to a very low degree of radial differential rotation before the red giant phase, which is in contradiction with the internal rotation of subgiant stars. Conclusions: In its present form, the revised prescription for the transport by the Tayler instability does not provide a complete solution to the missing AM transport revealed by asteroseismology of evolved stars.

description: Transparent oxide materials, such as $CuAlO_{2}$, a p-type transparent conducting oxide (TCO), have recently been studied for high temperature thermoelectric power generators and coolers for waste heat. TCO materials are generally low cost and non-toxic. The potential to engineer them through strain and nano-structuring are two promising avenues toward continuously tuning the electronic and thermal properties to achieve high zT values and low cost/kW-hr devices. In this work, the strain-dependent lattice thermal conductivity of 2H $CuAlO_{2}$ is computed by solving the phonon Boltzmann transport equation with interatomic force constants extracted from first-principles calculations. While the average bulk thermal conductivity is around 32 W/(K-m) at room temperature, it drops to between 5-15 W/(K-m) for typical experimental grain sizes from 3nm to 30nm at room temperature. We find that strain can offer both an increase as well as a decrease in the thermal conductivity as expected, however the overall inclusion of small grain sizes dictates the potential for low thermal conductivity in this material.

At one loop, the dimensions of large operators can be computed with the help of Bethe ansatz and can be directly compared to the string energies. We study finite-size corrections for Bethe states which should describe quantum corrections to energies of extended semiclassical strings.

description: Tailoring medical interventions to a particular patient and pathology has been termed personalized medicine. The outcome of cancer treatments is improved when the intervention is timed in accordance with the patient's internal time. Yet, one challenge of personalized medicine is how to consider the biological time of the patient. Prerequisite for this so-called chronotherapy is an accurate characterization of the internal circadian time of the patient. As an alternative to time-consuming measurements in a sleep-laboratory, recent studies in chronobiology predict circadian time by applying machine learning approaches and mathematical modelling to easier accessible observables such as gene expression. Embedding these results into the mathematical dynamics between clock and cancer in mammals, we review the precision of predictions and the potential usage with respect to cancer treatment and discuss whether the patient's internal time and circadian observables, may provide an additional indication for individualized treatment timing. Besides the health improvement, timing treatment may imply financial advantages, by ameliorating side effects of treatments, thus reducing costs. Summarizing the advances of recent years, this review brings together the current clinical standard for measuring biological time, the general assessment of circadian rhythmicity, the usage of rhythmic variables to predict biological time and models of circadian rhythmicity.

description: The dynamic structure factor, S(Q,w), of vitreous silica, has been measured by inelastic X-ray scattering in the exchanged wavevector (Q) region Q=4-16.5 nm-1 and up to energies hw=115 meV in the Stokes side. The unprecedented statistical accuracy in such an extended energy range allows to accurately determine the longitudinal current spectra, and the energies of the vibrational excitations. The simultaneous observation of two excitations in the acoustic region, and the persistence of propagating sound waves up to Q values comparable with the (pseudo-)Brillouin zone edge, allow to observe a positive dispersion in the generalized sound velocity that, around Q=5 nm-1, varies from 6500 to 9000 m/s: this phenomenon was never experimentally observed in a glass.

description: We consider two linearly coupled masses, where one mass can have inelastic impacts with a fixed, rigid stop. This leads to the study of a two degree of freedom, piecewise linear, frictionless, unforced, constrained mechanical system. The system is governed by three types of dynamics: coupled harmonic oscillation, simple harmonic motion and discrete rebounds. Energy is dissipated discontinuously in discrete amounts, through impacts with the stop. We prove the existence of a nonzero measure set of orbits that lead to infinite impacts with the stop in a finite time. We show how to modify the mathematical model so that forward existence and uniqueness of solutions for all time is guaranteed. Existence of hybrid periodic orbits is shown. A geometrical interpretation of the dynamics based on action coordinates is used to visualize numerical simulation results for the asymptotic dynamics.

description: As new biomarkers, circular RNAs (circRNAs) have been largely unexplored in prostate cancer (PCa). Using an integrative approach, we aimed to evaluate the potential of circRNAs and their linear transcripts (linRNAs) to act as (i) diagnostic biomarkers for differentiation between normal and tumor tissue and (ii) prognostic biomarkers for the prediction of biochemical recurrence (BCR) after radical prostatectomy. In a first step, eight circRNAs (circATXN10, circCRIM1, circCSNK1G3, circGUCY1A2, circLPP, circNEAT1, circRHOBTB3, and circSTIL) were identified as differentially expressed via a genome-wide circRNA-based microarray analysis of six PCa samples. Additional bioinformatics and literature data were applied for this selection process. In total, 115 malignant PCa and 79 adjacent normal tissue samples were examined using robust RT-qPCR assays specifically established for the circRNAs and their linear counterparts. Their diagnostic and prognostic potential was evaluated using receiver operating characteristic curves, Cox regressions, decision curve analyses, and C-statistic calculations of prognostic indices. The combination of circATXN10 and linSTIL showed a high discriminative ability between malignant and adjacent normal tissue PCa. The combination of linGUCY1A2, linNEAT1, and linSTIL proved to be the best predictive RNA-signature for BCR. The combination of this RNA signature with five established reference models based on only clinicopathological factors resulted in an improved predictive accuracy for BCR in these models. This is an encouraging study for PCa to evaluate circRNAs and their linRNAs in an integrative approach, and the results showed their clinical potential in combination with standard clinicopathological variables.

description: We analyze both the facial structure of the Gram spectrahedron $\mathrm{Gram}(f)$ and of the Hermitian Gram spectrahedron $\mathcal{H}^{\scriptscriptstyle+}(f)$ of a nonnegative binary form $f \in \mathbb{R}[x, y]_{2d}$. We show that if $F \subseteq \mathcal{H}^{\scriptscriptstyle+}(f)$ is a polyhedral face of dimension $k$ then $\binom{k+1}{2} \leq d$. Conversely, for all $k \in \mathbb{N}$ and $d \geq \binom{k+1}{2}$ we show that the Hermitian Gram spectrahedron of a general positive binary form $f \in \mathbb{R}[x, y]_{2d}$ with distinct roots contains a face $F$ which is a $k$-simplex and whose extreme points are rank-one tensors. For all $k \in \mathbb{N}$ and $d \geq (k+1)^2$ the (symmetric) Gram spectrahedron of a general positive binary form $f \in \mathbb{R}[x, y]_{2d}$ contains a polyhedral face $F$ with $(\mathrm{rk}(F), \dim(F)) = (2(k+1), k)$.

description: In this work we show the existence of closure domains in Fe$_{1-x}$Ga$_x$ thin films featuring a striped magnetic pattern and study the effect of the magnetic domain arrangement on the magnetotransport properties. By means of X-ray resonant magnetic scattering, we experimentally demonstrate the presence of such closure domains and estimate their sizes and relative contribution to surface magnetization. Magnetotransport experiments show that the behavior of the magnetoresistance depends on the measurement geometry as well as on the temperature. When the electric current ows perpendicular to the stripe direction, the resistivity decreases when a magnetic field is applied along the stripe direction (negative magnetoresistance) in all the studied temperature range, and the calculations indicate that the main source is the anisotropic magnetoresistance. In the case of current flowing parallel to the stripe domains, the magnetoresistance changes sign, being positive at room temperature and negative at 100 K. To explain this behavior, the contribution to magnetoresistance from the domain walls must be considered besides the anisotropic one.

description: VarFish is a user-friendly web application for the quality control, filtering, prioritization, analysis, and user-based annotation of DNA variant data with a focus on rare disease genetics. It is capable of processing variant call files with single or multiple samples. The variants are automatically annotated with population frequencies, molecular impact, and presence in databases such as ClinVar. Further, it provides support for pathogenicity scores including CADD, MutationTaster, and phenotypic similarity scores. Users can filter variants based on these annotations and presumed inheritance pattern and sort the results by these scores. Variants passing the filter are listed with their annotations and many useful link-outs to genome browsers, other gene/variant data portals, and external tools for variant assessment. VarFish allows users to create their own annotations including support for variant assessment following ACMG-AMP guidelines. In close collaboration with medical practitioners, VarFish was designed for variant analysis and prioritization in diagnostic and research settings as described in the software's extensive manual. The user interface has been optimized for supporting these protocols. Users can install VarFish on their own in-house servers where it provides additional lab notebook features for collaborative analysis and allows re-analysis of cases, e.g. after update of genotype or phenotype databases.

description: Over the last decade, the pre-main sequence star KH 15D has exhibited periodic eclipses that are surprisingly deep (~3 mag) and long-lasting (~40% of the 48.4-day period). The cause of the eclipses is unknown, but it could be a feature in a nearly edge-on protoplanetary disk. Here we report on an analysis of archival photographs of KH 15D from the Harvard College Observatory plate collection, most of which were taken during the years 1913-1951. During this time range, the data are consistent with no eclipses; the duty cycle of 1 mag eclipses was less than 20%. The decadal timescale of this change in eclipse behavior is compatible with the expected timescale of protoplanet/disk interactions. Archival images from more recent epochs should reveal the onset of the eclipses.

description: Introduction: The effect of different bearings on synovial white blood cell (WBC) count and polymorphonuclear percentage (PMN%) in aspirations remains unclear. Therefore, this study investigates the impact of aseptic Metal-on-Metal (MoM) bearing on synovial fluid. Methods: We searched our arthroplasty registry for aseptic painful THAs with MoM bearings between 2011 and 2018. Then, a case-matched control group was selected with septic and aseptic Total Hip Arthroplasty (THA) with ceramic on a polyethylene (PE) bearing. The matching criteria consisted of gender, age +/-10 years, and time of aspiration (+/-2years). Periprosthetic Joint Infection (PJI) was defined according to the Infectious Diseases Society of America (IDSA), and Musculoskeletal Infection Society (MSIS) using bacterial cultures, sonication and histology. Results: In total, 19 patients who underwent hip aspiration with MoM bearing were identified. Five patients had to be excluded due to insufficient synovial fluid obtained (n = 2) or bacterial growth after sonication that was initially negative with the standard microbiological cultures (n = 3). As such, 14 were included. These patients were matched with 14 aseptic and 14 septic THAs with ceramic on a PE bearing, which constituted the control group. The mean serum chrome level was 20.0 ± 15.5 nmol/L and cobalt level 18.4 ± 22.1 nmol/L. The synovial WBC and PMN% varied significantly between MoM bearing group and the aseptic THA ceramic PE group (both p < 0.001), as well as the septic THA group (WBC p = 0.016, PMN% p < 0.001). Furthermore, the septic THA group had significantly higher CRP values than the aseptic MoM group (p = 0.016). Conclusion: MoM bearing shows significantly higher synovial WBC and PMN% when compared to aseptic THA with ceramic on PE bearing above the MSIS cut-off. This is an important consideration when diagnosing periprosthetic joint infection using the MSIS guidelines.

description: We introduce fast algorithms for generalized unnormalized optimal transport. To handle densities with different total mass, we consider a dynamic model, which mixes the $L^p$ optimal transport with $L^p$ distance. For $p=1$, we derive the corresponding $L^1$ generalized unnormalized Kantorovich formula. We further show that the problem becomes a simple $L^1$ minimization which is solved efficiently by a primal-dual algorithm. For $p=2$, we derive the $L^2$ generalized unnormalized Kantorovich formula, a new unnormalized Monge problem and the corresponding Monge-Ampère equation. Furthermore, we introduce a new unconstrained optimization formulation of the problem. The associated gradient flow is essentially related to an elliptic equation which can be solved efficiently. Here the proposed gradient descent procedure together with the Nesterov acceleration involves the Hamilton-Jacobi equation which arises from the KKT conditions. Several numerical examples are presented to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithms.

description: Die körperliche, seelische und soziale Individualentwicklung von Kindern wird von einer Vielzahl an Einflussfaktoren mitbestimmt. Mitunter sind der Besuch einer vorschulischen Einrichtung und die Einschulung eines Kindes die ersten bedeutenden Zäsuren, welche die Entwicklungschancen von Kindern nachhaltig beeinflussen können. In der vorliegenden kumulativen Habilitationsschrift wurde innerhalb des ersten Themenschwerpunktes erstmals ein modifiziertes „Bayerisches Modell“ für Schuleingangsuntersuchungen hinsichtlich seiner prädiktiven Validität und seiner konkurrierenden Validität genauer analysiert. Basierend auf bis zu 14 konsekutiven Einschulungsjahrgängen wurden in der Folge mittels eines innovativen Ansatzes und unter streng standardisierten Studienbedingungen die Prävalenzen, deren zeitliche Trends, ausgewählte Determinanten und die Verteilungsmuster von singulären und von multiplen Entwicklungsverzögerungen innerhalb einer streng umschriebenen Studienpopulation zusammenhängend identifiziert. Im Rahmen des dritten Themenschwerpunktes erfolgten eingehende quantitative Untersuchungen zur Einflussnahme des Besuches eines Kindergartens als soziale Determinante auf die Entwicklungschancen von einschulungspflichtigen Kindern. Durch die gewonnenen Erkenntnisse sind eine Weiterentwicklung und eine zunehmend kritischere Bewertung von Instrumenten zur Entwicklungsdiagnostik zu erwarten, was einen relevanten Beitrag zur Qualitätssicherung bei Schuleingangsuntersuchungen darstellt. Zudem sollte aus gesundheitswissenschaftlicher Sicht der Risikopopulation von Einschulungskindern mit multiplen Entwicklungsverzögerungen eine vermehrte Aufmerksamkeit gezollt werden und das Setting eines Kindergartens für Interventionsmaßnahmen zur Optimierung der Entwicklungschancen von Kindern zukünftig eine verstärkte Berücksichtigung finden.

On the use of the first-order moment approach for measurements of H_eff from LSD profiles

description: The big majority of the reported measurements of the stellar magnetic fields that have analysed spectropolarimetric data have employed the least-square-deconvolution method (LSD) and the first-order moment approach. We present a series of numerical tests in which we review some important aspects of this technique. First, we show that the selection of the profile widths, i.e. integration range in the first-order moment equation, is independent of the accuracy of the magnetic measurements, meaning that for any arbitrary profile width it is always possible to properly determine the longitudinal magnetic field. We also study the interplay between the line depth limit adopted in the line mask and the normalisation values of the LSD profiles. We finally show that the rotation of the stars has to be considered to correctly infer the intensity of the magnetic field, something that has been neglected up to now. We show that the latter consideration is crucial, and our test shows that the magnetic intensities differ by a factor close to 3 for a moderate fast rotator star with vsini of 50 km/s. Therefore, it is expected that in general the stellar magnetic fields reported for fast rotators are stronger than what was believed. All the previous results shows that the first-order moment can be a very robust tool for measurements of magnetic fields, provided that the weak magnetic field approximation is secured. We also show that when the magnetic field regime breaks down, the use of the first-order moment method becomes uncertain.

description: We present millimetre wavelength observations of the black hole candidate X-ray binary Cygnus X-1 which indicate a suppression, or quenching, of the emission as the source switches to a softer X-ray state. Combining the data with those for another black hole candidate, XTE J1118+480, we demonstrate that the millimetre emission shows the same coupling to X-rays as the radio emission, although with a much stronger sensitivity to spectral shape. We therefore confirm the association of the millimetre emission with the jets in low/hard state black hole candidate X-ray binaries.

description: Entanglement and quantum squeezing have wide applications in quantum technologies due to their non-classical characteristics. Here we study entanglement and quantum squeezing in an open spin-optomechanical system, in which a Rabi model (a spin coupled to the mechanical oscillator) is coupled to an ancillary cavity field via a quadratic optomechanical coupling. We find that their performances can be significantly modulated via the photon of the ancillary cavity, which comes from photon-dependent spin-oscillator coupling and detuning. Specifically, a fully switchable spin-oscillator entanglement can be achieved, meanwhile a strong mechanical squeezing is also realized. Moreover, we study the environment-induced decoherence and dissipation, and find that they can be mitigated by increasing the number of photons. This work provides an effective way to manipulate entanglement and quantum squeezing and to suppress decoherence in the cavity quantum electrodynamics with a quadratic optomechanics.

description: This study identified and confirmed angiotensin II (ATII) as a strong activator of signaling in neuroendocrine neoplasm (NEN) cells. Expression analyses of the ATII receptor type 1 (AGTR1) revealed an upregulation of mRNA levels (RT-qPCR) and radioligand binding (autoradiography) in small-intestinal (n = 71) NEN tissues compared to controls (n = 25). NEN cells with high AGTR1 expression exhibited concentration-dependent calcium mobilization and chromogranin A secretion upon stimulation with ATII, blocked by AGTR1 antagonism and Gαq inhibition. ATII also stimulated serotonin secretion from BON cells. AGTR1 ligand saralasin was coupled to a near-infrared fluorescent (NIRF) dye and tested for its biodistribution in a nude mouse model bearing AGTR1-positive BON and negative QGP-1 xenograft tumors. NIRF imaging showed significantly higher uptake in BON tumors. This proof of concept establishes AGTR1 as a novel target in NEN, paving the way for translational chelator-based probes for diagnostic PET imaging and radioligand therapy.
