description: Influential nodes in complex networks are typically defined as those nodes that maximize the asymptotic reach of a spreading process of interest. However, for practical applications such as viral marketing and online information spreading, one is often interested in maximizing the reach of the process in a short amount of time. The traditional definition of influencers in network-related studies from diverse research fields narrows down the focus to the late-time state of the spreading processes, leaving the following question unsolved: which nodes are able to initiate large-scale spreading processes, in a limited amount of time? Here, we find that there is a fundamental difference between the nodes -- which we call "fast influencers" -- that initiate the largest-reach processes in a short amount of time, and the traditional, "late-time" influencers. Stimulated by this observation, we provide an extensive benchmarking of centrality metrics with respect to their ability to identify both the fast and late-time influencers. We find that local network properties can be used to uncover the fast influencers. In particular, a parsimonious, local centrality metric (which we call social capital) achieves optimal or nearly-optimal performance in the fast influencer identification for all the analyzed empirical networks. Local metrics tend to be also competitive in the traditional, late-time influencer identification task.

Violation of the Bell-CHSH inequality and marginal laws in a single-entity Bell-test experiment

description: We describe a simple experimental setting where joint measurements performed on a single (classical or quantum) entity can violate both the Bell-CHSH inequality and the marginal laws (also called no-signaling conditions). Once emitted by a source, the entity propagates within the space of Alice's and Bob's detection screens, with the measurements' outcomes corresponding to the entity being absorbed or not absorbed in a given time interval. The violation of the marginal laws results from the fact that the choice of the screen on the side of Alice affects the detection probability on the side of Bob, and vice versa, and we show that for certain screen choices the Bell-CHSH inequality can be violated up to its mathematical maximum. Our analysis provides a clarification of the mechanisms that could be at play when the Bell-CHSH inequality and marginal laws are violated in entangled bipartite systems, which would not primarily depend on the presence of a bipartite structure but on the fact that the latter can manifest as an undivided whole.

description: Motivated by recent advances in fabricating artificial lattices in semiconductors and their promise for quantum simulation of topological materials, we study the one-dimensional dimerized Fermi-Hubbard model. We show how the topological phases at half-filling can be characterized by a reduced Zak phase defined based on the reduced density matrix of each spin subsystem. Signatures of bulk-boundary correspondence are observed in the triplon excitation of the bulk and the edge states of uncoupled spins at the boundaries. At quarter-filling we show that owing to the presence of the Hubbard interaction the system can undergo a transition to the topological ground state of the non-interacting Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model with the application of a moderate-strength external magnetic field. We propose a robust experimental realization with a chain of dopant atoms in silicon or gate-defined quantum dots in GaAs where the transition can be probed by measuring the tunneling current through the many-body state of the chain.

description: We use more than 110500 galaxies from the 2dF galaxy redshift survey (2dFGRS) to estimate the b_J-band galaxy luminosity function at redshift z=0, taking account of evolution, the distribution of magnitude measurement errors and small corrections for incompletenessin the galaxy catalogue. Throughout the interval -16.5>M- 5log h>-22, the luminosity function is accurately described by a Schechter function with M* -5log h =-19.66+/-0.07, alpha=-1.21+/-0.03 and phistar=(1.61+/-0.08) 10^{-2} h^3/Mpc^3, giving an integrated luminosity density of rho_L=(1.82+/-0.17) 10^8 h L_sol/Mpc^3 (assuming an Omega_0=0.3, Lambda_0=0.7 cosmology). The quoted errors have contributions from the accuracy of the photometric zeropoint, large scale structure in the galaxy distribution and, importantly, from the uncertainty in the appropriate evolutionary corrections. Our luminosity function is in excellent agreement with, but has much smaller statistical errors than an estimate from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) data when the SDSS data are accurately translated to the b_J-band and the luminosity functions are normalized in the same way. We use the luminosity function, along with maps describing the redshift completeness of the current 2dFGRS catalogue, and its weak dependence on apparent magnitude, to define a complete description of the 2dFGRS selection function. Details and tests of the calibration of the 2dFGRS photometric parent catalogue are also presented.

description: The formation of neurospheres was important in demonstrating that neurogenesis in the adult brain may be fuelled by a stem cell population. The olfactory mucosa is another site of neurogenesis which, in humans, has been observed to contain a stem cell population through the formation of neurospheres (Murrell et al., 2005). Stem cells can be defined as cells capable of self-renewal and multipotency. The aim of this study was to investigate the potential of rat olfactory stem cells growing as neurospheres. The hypothesis is that the rat olfactory mucosa contains a 'true' stem cell population that can be cultured as neurospheres and that will demonstrate multipotency by differentiating into 'non-olfactory' cell types and possess the capacity for self-renewal, if provided with the appropriate environmental niche. Here it was found that adult rat olfactory mucosa is capable of generating neurospheres when cultured in EGF and bFGF. Evidence of self-renewal was provided by the formation of six generations of neurospheres, the formation of neurospheres from single cells and the expression of markers associated with self-renewal by neurosphere cells. The multipotency of olfactory neurosphere cells was demonstrated through manipulation of the stem cell niche. In defined culture conditions, extracellular matrix molecules and growth factors were able to induce the differentiation of neurosphere cells down the dopaminergic lineage pathway. When co-cultured with differentiating cells, neonatal myoblasts and 3T3-L1 cells, olfactory neurosphere cells were able to differentiate and incorporate into a skeletal muscle myotube and differentiate into adipocytes, respectively. In conclusion it was found that the adult rat olfactory mucosa is capable of generating neurospheres. When presented with an appropriate niche neurosphere cells are able to self-renew and demonstrate multipotency.

description: Acoustic analogue computation and signal processing are of great significance, however, it's challenging to realize the acoustic computing devices because of their limitations of single function and complex structure. In this paper, an acoustic multifunctional device, which can gate or amplify acoustic waves without resorting to altering the frequency and structure using a passive acoustic parity-time (PT)-symmetric metamaterial, is realized theoretically and experimentally. The metamaterial is constructed by five lossless-loss periodically distributed media which are modulated to achieve the passive PT symmetry. At the coherent perfect absorber (CPA)-emitter point in the broken PT-symmetric phase, the logic gates (AND, OR, XOR and NOT) and small signal amplifier are realized in a single system by adjusting the phase and amplitude differences between two incoming beams, respectively. This work provides a new route for the connection between the PT symmetry and the acoustic metamaterial, which has great potential applications in acoustic modulation and acoustic multifunctional device.
The shapes of dark matter dominated dwarf spheroidal stellar density profiles

description: A Bayesian likelihood analysis of the stellar density profile shapes of several dark matter dominated Galactic dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) has been completed. This analysis indicates that the inner power law, ρ\propto r^{-γ}, of each of these profiles satisfies γ< 1.21 at greater than 99% confidence with a slight preference for γ\sim 0.7 . Speculating that this bound on the stellar profiles may be related to the inner power law of the underlying dark matter distribution reveals a statistical discrepancy with the values favoured by recent N-body simulations of cold dark matter (CDM), γ_{CDM} \sim 1.4-1.5 .

Collisional Elongation: Possible Origin of Extremely Elongated Shape of 1I/`Oumuamua

description: Light curve observations of a recently discovered interstellar object 1I/`Oumuamua suggest that this object has an extremely elongated shape with the axis ratio 0.3 or smaller. Planetesimal collisions can produce irregular shapes including elongated shapes. In this paper, we suggest that the extremely elongated shape of 1I/`Oumuamua may be the result of such an impact. To find detailed impact conditions to form the extremely elongated objects, we conduct numerical simulations of planetesimal collisions using Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics method for elastic dynamics with self-gravity and interparticle friction. Impacts into strengthless target planetesimals with radius 50 m are conducted with various ratios of impactor mass to target mass q, friction angles phi_d, impact velocities v_imp, and impact angles theta_imp. We find that impacts with q \geq 0.5, phi_d \geq 40 degrees, v_imp \leq 40 degrees, and theta_imp \leq 30 degrees produce remnants with the ratio of intermediate to major axis length less than 0.3. This impact condition suggests that the parent protoplanetary disk in the planetesimal collision stage was weakly turbulent (alpha < 10^{-4} for the inner disk) and composed of planetesimals smaller than ~ 7 km to ensure small impact velocity.

 Diagnosis. Characterized by its particular coloration, with two whitish bands, as well as by its male genitalia.
  Description. Male.  General coloration dark brown. Apex of head, antennae, and basal third of mid and hind femora yellowish. Hemelytra reddish brown, with two whitish transversal fascia on corium, nearly translucent. Cuneus shiny, dark brown. Membrane dark, with a clear spot at base, near the apex of cuneus.
 Female. Similar to male in coloration and measurements. Measurements: Ratio (maximum–minimum) (n = 5). Total length: 2.24 (2.35–2.13); maximum width at level of cuneus base: 0.75 (0.80–0.71). Head length: 0.36 (0.36–0.35); width: 0.40 (0.41–0.38); interocular space: 0.19 (0.20–0,19).Antennae: length of segments I: 0.10 (0.11–0.09); II: 0.30 (0.33–0.29); III: 0.22 (0.22–0.21); IV: 0.23 (0.25–0.22). Pronotum: length: 0.48 (0.52–0.45); width at base: 0.71 (0.73-0.68). Cuneus length: 0.43 (0.45–0.42); width at base: 0.44 (0.47–0.36). Similar coloration to male.
 Etymology. The specific epithet is given in honour of our friend Dimitri Forero (Heteropteran Systematics Lab, Department of Entomology, University of California Riverside, USA) who sent us many specimens of Anthocoridae from Colombia and this species from Ecuador.
 Comments. The sole male (holotype) was not measured because of the montage method: we believe that the structures of slide-mounted specimens can be distorted.

description: Urinary tract infections (UTI) are a major source of morbidity, affecting 50% of women at least once, and sometimes with recurrent episodes. These infections can be localised as cystitis or urethritis, and sometimes develop more severely as pyelonephritis or urosepsis. UTI also affects the elderly and catheterised patients in large numbers. The burden on the health care system arises from more than 8 million UTI-related consultations per year; with health care costs estimated in excess of $3.5 billion, in the USA alone. While UTI is caused by a range of different microbes, the predominant infectious organism is uropathogenic Escherichia coli (UPEC), which accounts for 55 to 85% of UTI cases. UPEC has multiple virulence factors that confer motility, adhesion, invasion, immune evasion, nutrient acquisition and biofilm formation. These virulence traits contribute to the development of UTI to various degrees. The human response to UTI has been characterised in many studies to date that have defined a complex series of biochemical and immunological signalling interactions, incorporating lymphocytes, granulocytes, mononuclear and uroepithelial cells. The research literature on UPEC UTI has focused mainly on discrete virulence factors of the bacteria and specific components of the host response to infection. Some features of UTI such as localisation of infection, severity, persistence, and chronic re-recrudescence are partially understood. However, there are many elements that require further study and there have been few broad-based approaches to deciphering the overall pathogenesis of UPEC UTI. Research projects using wider approaches to document events that occur at specific points during infection can offer insight into previously unknown aspects of critical UTI stages.

Hydrostatic equilibrium of insular, static, spherically symmetric, perfect fluid solutions in general relativity
Creators: name: Negi, P. S.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: An analysis of insular solutions of Einstein's field equations for static, spherically symmetric, source mass, on the basis of exterior Schwarzschild solution is presented. Following the analysis, we demonstrate that the {\em regular} solutions governed by a self-bound (that is, the surface density does not vanish together with pressure) equation of state (EOS) or density variation can not exist in the state of hydrostatic equilibrium, because the source mass which belongs to them, does not represent the `actual mass' appears in the exterior Schwarzschild solution. The only configuration which could exist in this regard is governed by the homogeneous density distribution (that is, the interior Schwarzschild solution). Other structures which naturally fulfill the requirement of the source mass, set up by exterior Schwarzschild solution (and, therefore, can exist in hydrostatic equilibrium) are either governed by gravitationally-bound regular solutions (that is, the surface density also vanishes together with pressure), or self-bound singular solutions (that is, the pressure and density both become infinity at the centre).

description: We point out an anti-correlation between the central dark matter (DM) densities of the bright Milky Way dwarf spheroidal galaxies (dSphs) and their orbital pericenter distances inferred from Gaia data. The dSphs that have not come close to the Milky Way center (like Fornax, Carina and Sextans) are less dense in DM than those that have come closer (like Draco and Ursa Minor). The same anti-correlation cannot be inferred for the ultra-faint dSphs due to large scatter. Including ultra-faints, a trend that dSphs with more extended stellar distributions tend to have lower DM densities emerges. A fresh look at solutions to the too-big-to-fail problem is warranted in light of these observations.

Super-Eddington Fluxes from Thin Accretion Disks?
Creators: name: Begelman, Mitchell C.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Radiation pressure-dominated accretion disks are predicted to exhibit strong density inhomogeneities on scales much smaller than the disk scale height, due to the nonlinear development of photon bubble instability. Radiation would escape from such a "leaky" disk at a rate higher than that predicted by standard accretion disk theory. The disk scale height is then smaller than that of a similar disk without small-scale inhomogeneities, and the disk can remain geometrically thin even as the flux approaches and exceeds the Eddington limit. An idealized one-zone model for disks with radiation-driven inhomogeneities suggests that the escaping flux could exceed L_E by a factor of up to ~10-100, depending on the mass of the central object. Such luminous disks would develop strong mass loss, but the resulting decrease in accretion rate would not necessarily prevent the luminosity from exceeding L_E. We suggest that the observed "ultraluminous X-ray sources" are actually thin, super-Eddington accretion disks orbiting stellar-mass black holes, and need not indicate the existence of a class of intermediate-mass black holes.

description: A time-delayed response of individual living organisms to information exchanged within flocks or swarms leads to the emergence of complex collective behaviors. A recent experimental setup by (Khadka et al 2018 Nat. Commun. 9 3864), employing synthetic microswimmers, allows to emulate and study such behavior in a controlled way, in the lab. Motivated by these experiments, we study a system of N Brownian particles interacting via a retarded harmonic interaction. For $N \leq 3$ , we characterize its collective behavior analytically, by solving the pertinent stochastic delay-differential equations, and for $N>3$ by Brownian dynamics simulations. The particles form molecule-like non-equilibrium structures which become unstable with increasing number of particles, delay time, and interaction strength. We evaluate the entropy and information fluxes maintaining these structures and, to quantitatively characterize their stability, develop an approximate time-dependent transition-state theory to characterize transitions between different isomers of the molecules. For completeness, we include a comprehensive discussion of the analytical solution procedure for systems of linear stochastic delay differential equations in finite dimension, and new results for covariance and time-correlation matrices.

description: This project is about the experience of contemporary space and its representation in painting. Both the exegesis and studio work investigate the transformations that have occurred in the way we conceptualise and experience space in response to new communication technologies and the related formation of a global economy. The exegesis contends that Modernist space, with its defined regimes of control and order, has been replaced by a complex situation that disrupts traditional spatio-temporal understandings and blurs the boundary between actual and virtual reality. It argues our experience of space is now based as much on immaterial phenomena as physical locality, and our individual motivations and circumstances influenced significantly by supra-spatial networks of information transfer. As Arjun Appadurai (1996) argues, the speed and diffuse circulation of ideas, images, finance and information is unprecedented and fuels the imaginations and desires of all.

description: Lasiocolpoides Champion, 1900
 Lasiocolpoides Champion, 1900: 313. Type species: Lasiocolpoides ciliatus Champion, 1900.
 Diagnostic characters. Head longer than broad; eyes large; rostrum extending barely beyond fore coxae. Pronotum smooth, trapezoidal, abruptly narrowing forward; lateral margins carinated and feebly sinuated; scutellum transversely sulcated beyond middle, with apical portion flattened. Hemelytra very distinctly and subseriately punctured, pilose; exocorium narrow apically, nearly half the width of endocorium. Legs elongate, femora incrassate; tibiae with long, projecting hairs. Ostiolar peritreme short, parallel-sided and strongly curved at apex; basal 3/4, straight.
 Studied material. Lasiocolpoides ciliatus Champion, 1900: GUATEMALA: ♀ (syntype): ‘Type, BCA Rhynch. II, Lasiocolpoides ciliatus Ch., sp. Figured, San Geronimo, Champ.’ (BMNH).
 Remarks. Like Lasiochiloides, this genus has an uncertain position among the Scolopini. We left Lasiocolpoides in Calliodina because the body is not flattened. Future studies of male and female genitalia will clarify its position within the Scolopini.

description: Συχνά επικαλούμαστε ότι το κράτος οφείλει ως άλλος «πατέρας» να μας προστατεύει χωρίς να αναρωτηθούμε τι όρια μπορεί να ξεπεράσει αυτή η προστασία και το τίμημα που θα κληθούμε να πληρώσουμε. Ο σκληρός νομικός πατερναλισμός ξεπερνά αυτά τα όρια και το τίμημα είναι θεμελιώδη ανθρώπινα δικαιώματα η παραβίαση των οποίων ωστόσο δεν είναι τόσο ευδιάκριτη στα πλαίσια μιας χαοτικής και ταχύτατα κινούμενης καθημερινότητας. Γι’ αυτό το λόγο λογοτεχνικά έργα όπως το 1984 του George Orwell, το Fahrenheit 451 του Ray Bradbury και το Brave New World του Aldous Huxley, μας βοηθούν να επιβραδύνουμε την εικόνα και να βάλουμε στο μικροσκόπιο μεθόδους σκληρού νομικού πατερναλισμού που παρουσιάζονται σε αυτά, οι οποίες δεν είναι τίποτε άλλο από την επισήμανση των τάσεων και των κινδύνων που παρατηρούσαν ήδη οι συγγραφείς στην κοινωνία που ζούσαν οι ίδιοι. Αυτή η προσέγγιση επιλέγεται λόγω του ότι πολλές φορές η λογοτεχνία και η μυθοπλασία χρησιμοποιείται ως μέσο κοινωνικής κριτικής, καθώς οι συγγραφείς χρησιμοποιούν τη φαντασία για να εκφράσουν τη δυσαρέσκεια του κοινού για κοινωνικά, πολιτικά και οικονομικά θέματα. Ο μεγεθυμένος πατερναλισμός που εντοπίζεται στα εν λόγω δυστοπικά έργα μας βοηθάει να παρατηρήσουμε καθαρότερα στοιχεία σκληρού κρατικού παρεμβατισμού στην κοινωνία που ζούμε σήμερα, να κατανοήσουμε πιο εύκολα τον προβληματισμό που γεννάται γύρω από την παραβίαση θεμελιωδών ελευθεριών και να θέσουμε τα όρια μας προς προάσπισής τους.

description: We discuss properties of the atmospheric water vapor above the high Andean plateau region known as the Llano de Chajnantor, in the Atacama Desert of northern Chile. A combination of radiometric and radiosonde measurements indicate that the median column of precipitable water vapor (PWV) above the plateau at an elevation of 5000 m is approximately 1.2 mm. The exponential scaleheight of the water vapor density in the median Chajnantor atmosphere is 1.13 km; the median PWV is 0.5 mm above an elevation of 5750 m. Both of these numbers appear to be lower at night. Annual, diurnal and other dependences of PWV and its scaleheight are discussed, as well as the occurrence of temperature inversion layers below the elevation of peaks surrounding the plateau. We estimate the background for infrared observations and sensitivities for broad band and high resolution spectroscopy. The results suggest that exceptional atmospheric conditions are present in the region, yielding high infrared transparency and high sensitivity for future ground-based infrared telescopes.

description: A mechanistic understanding of adhesion in soft materials is critical in the fields of transportation (tires, gaskets, seals), biomaterials, micro-contact printing, and soft robotics. Measurements have long demonstrated that the apparent work of adhesion coming into contact is consistently lower than the intrinsic work of adhesion for the materials, and that there is adhesion hysteresis during separation, commonly explained by viscoelastic dissipation. Still lacking is a quantitative experimentally validated link between adhesion and measured topography. Here, we used in situ measurements of contact size to investigate the adhesion behavior of soft elastic polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) hemispheres (modulus ranging from 0.7 to 10 MPa) on four different polycrystalline diamond substrates with topography characterized across eight orders of magnitude, including down to the Ångström-scale. The results show that the reduction in apparent work of adhesion is equal to the energy required to achieve conformal contact. Further, the energy loss during contact and removal is equal to the product of intrinsic work of adhesion and the true contact area. These findings provide a simple mechanism to quantitatively link the widely-observed adhesion hysteresis to roughness rather than viscoelastic dissipation.

description: Στην παρούσα διπλωματική εργασία γίνεται μια προσπάθεια ανάλυσης του ρόλου που διαδραματίζουν οι ανανεώσιμες πηγές ενέργειας στην Ελλάδα και γενικότερα στο σύγχρονο ενεργειακό γίγνεσθαι, υπό τους περιορισμούς και τις απειλές που τίθενται λόγω των φαινομένου της κλιματικής αλλαγής. Μέσα από την παρατήρηση στατιστικών στοιχείων, πινάκων, διαγραμμάτων, εμπειρικών μελετών και θεωρητικών προσεγγίσεων επιχειρείται η ανάδειξη της βαρύνουσας σημασίας που ήδη επιτελούν οι ΑΠΕ στο παγκόσμιο οικονομικό στερέωμα, ενώ το μέλλον όσον αφορά την αξιοποίησή τους διαφαίνεται λαμπρό. Πέρα από την οικονομική προσέγγιση του θέματος, η παρούσα εργασία ασχολείται και με ένα κοινωνικοοικονομικό φαινόμενο που ταλανίζει επί αρκετές δεκαετίες τη χώρα και μάλιστα στις μέρες μας είναι πιο επίκαιρο από ποτέ, αυτό της ενεργειακής φτώχειας το οποίο μάλιστα βιώνει ένα αρκετά μεγάλο κομμάτι του πληθυσμού της χώρας. Λόγω της οικονομικής κρίσης που βιώνει έντονα η χώρα μας την τελευταία δεκαετία, οι ανισότητες έχουν αμβλυνθεί, η πρόσβαση σε πόρους έχει μειωθεί και αρκετοί πολίτες στερούνται βασικά αγαθά, όπως η πρόσβαση σε ενέργεια οικονομικά προσιτή και ασφαλή. Οι ανανεώσιμες πηγές ενέργειας, ως ένα βασικό συστατικό της βιοοικονομίας, δύνανται να αποτελέσουν τον κινητήριο μοχλό αλλαγής και καταπολέμησης του φαινομένου αυτού. Στο τελευταίο κομμάτι της εργασίας, παρουσιάζονται τα συμπεράσματα καθώς και κάποιες θέσεις – προτάσεις που θα μπορούσαν να βοηθήσουν στην αποτελεσματικότερη διείσδυση των ΑΠΕ στην αγορά ενέργειας

(Figs. 5, 22)
 Nidicola Harris & Drake, 1941: 343. Type species: Nidicola marginata Harris & Drake, 1941.
 Diagnostic characters. Small size (1.6–2.1 mm), oblong to obovate. Upper surface depressed. Head wider than long; eyes small; rostrum long, surpassing mid coxae. Pronotum much wider than long; anterior margin nearly straight; lateral margins widely explanate, carinated and straight, with anterior angles rounded; basal margin concave. Polymorphic wings, from well developed to not reaching the tip of abdomen, dense and finely punctured, especially in clavus; exocorium narrow. Legs moderately long, with short and slender hairs; femora not enlarged; fore coxae with four or five long setae; male fore tibiae with row of teeth on inner surface; fossula spongiosa small. Female with ovipositor reduced. Left paramere slender, long and slightly spiraled. Ostiolar peritreme (Fig. 22) gently curved forward, basal half a little wider than apical one (a little different to peritreme drawed in DRAKE & HERRING (1964) that is parallel-sided), and apically rounded with small excentric acute tip; median sulcus arises from top of peritreme; dorsal margin of metapleura smooth.
 Studied material. Nidicola mitra Drake & Herring, 1964: NICARAGUA: León, V. Telica, 4-IX-1991, 2 JJ 1 ♀, Nolo – González lgt., en nido de Nasutitermes sp. (MACN).
 Remarks. This genus includes a very peculiar group of species restricted to southwestern USA, Mexico and Central America. The long setae on fore coxae are probably related to a stridulatory function.

description: Scattering amplitudes in $d+2$ dimensions can be expressed in terms of a conformal basis, for which the S-matrix behaves as a CFT correlation function on the celestial $d$-sphere. We explain how compact expressions for the full tree-level S-matrix of gauge theory, gravity and other QFTs extend to this conformal basis, and are easily derived from ambitwistor strings. Using these formulae and their worldsheet origins, we prove various tree-level 'conformal soft theorems' in gauge theory and gravity in any dimension; these arise from limits where the scaling dimension of an external state in the scattering process takes special values. These conformally soft limits are obscure from standard methods, but they are easily derived with ambitwistor strings. Additionally, we make an identification between the residues of conformally soft vertex operator insertions in ambitwistor strings and charges generating asymptotic symmetries.

description: Background and aim: In situ gelling formulations are liquids that undergo a phase transition to form semi-solid gel structures within the physiological environment. Sustained release of drug products can therefore be delivered via injectable in situ gelling formulations where the gel formed in vivo acts as a drug reservoir, releasing drug via diffusion and/or degradation of the gel. Due to limitations of previously described in situ gelling formulations, the current research project aimed to address these issues and develop a biocompatible injectable in situ gelling formulation/s containing a hydrophilic polymer within a non-aqueous solvent that would gel upon contact with aqueous physiological fluid. The ideal formulation was developed to exhibit long-term stability, be able to release both hydrophilic and hydrophobic drugs over a sustained period of time without a significant initial drug burst, and be inexpensive to manufacture. Experimental: Preformulation studies were performed and then optimised to develop suitable formulations containing hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC) carboxymethyl cellulose (CMCS), or methylcellulose (MC). These lead formulations were characterised to determine suitability for injectable in situ gelling activity by assessing viscosity, syringeability and gelling behaviour, and then tested for physical stability over a 6 month period. In vitro drug release characteristics were determined for a range of hydrophilic and hydrophobic compounds before the final ideal compound, namely CMCS2a, was chosen for drug incorporation studies. A model drug, risperidone, was incorporated into the final formulation and tested for physical and chemical stability over an 8-week period.
