description: Biologically created subvolumes enable non-uniform dose distributions in prostate cancer radiotherapy (RT) thus potentially improving therapeutic ratio and reducing toxicity. We present the long-term outcome of men receiving focal boosting of carbon-11 acetate (ACE) PET-CT metabolically active areas in prostate carcinoma. Thirty men with hormone naïve localized prostate carcinoma underwent ACE PET/CT for RT planning. There were five low-, 17 intermediate-, and eight high-risk patients. Based on thresholding of the standardized uptake values (SUVs) metabolic target volumes (MTVs) corresponding to intraprostatic lesions (IPLs) were contoured. Two planning target volumes (PTVs) were applied i.e., PTVlow-risk for the whole prostate with 8–10 mm margin and PTVhigh-risk for the MTV. Pelvic nodes were not irradiated. Late toxicity of biologically guided RT was reviewed after a median of 63 months and outcome after a median follow-up of 124 months. Median doses to PTVlow-risk, PTVhigh-risk, prostate, and MTV were 72.9 Gy, 79.4 Gy, 76.6 Gy, and 80.4 Gy, respectively, in 38 fractions. The 10-year cancer-specific survival was 86% and the biochemical failure-free ratio 68%, respectively. The median biochemical progression-free survival (PFS) was 37, 108, and 119 months in the high, intermediate, and low-risk groups, respectively, the difference being significant between high and intermediate-risk groups (p = 0.02). One patient (3%) presented with locoregional and 5 (17%) with distant nodal metastases. Five patients (17%) had a biochemical relapse. A larger MTV was associated with shorter PFS (r = −0.41, p = 0.02), but had no influence on OS. No other statistically significant differences in the dose painting parameters were observed between recurrence-free and recurring patients. Biological guidance for dose-escalated prostate RT is feasible with ACE PET/CT. Since a larger MTV may be associated with a higher risk for progression, we encourage further study of dose-escalation to ACE-positive lesions considering the low toxicity of our protocol.

description: Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging is a noninvasive imaging technique that can indirectly infer the microstructure of tissues and provide metrics which are subject to normal variability across subjects. Potentially abnormal values or features may yield essential information to support analysis of controls and patients cohorts, but subtle confounds affecting diffusion MRI, such as those due to difference in scanning protocols or hardware, can lead to systematic errors which could be mistaken for purely biologically driven variations amongst subjects. In this work, we propose a new harmonization algorithm based on adaptive dictionary learning to mitigate the unwanted variability caused by different scanner hardware while preserving the natural biological variability present in the data. Overcomplete dictionaries, which are learned automatically from the data and do not require paired samples, are then used to reconstruct the data from a different scanner, removing variability present in the source scanner in the process. We use the publicly available database from an international challenge to evaluate the method, which was acquired on three different scanners and with two different protocols, and propose a new mapping towards a scanner-agnostic space. Results show that the effect size of the four studied diffusion metrics is preserved while removing variability attributable to the scanner. Experiments with alterations using a free water compartment, which is not simulated in the training data, shows that the effect size induced by the alterations is also preserved after harmonization. The algorithm is freely available and could help multicenter studies in pooling their data, while removing scanner specific confounds, and increase statistical power in the process.

description: D. Borah and B. Karmakar in Phys. Lett. B789 (2019) have proposed an A4 flavoured linear seesaw model to realise light Dirac neutrinos. In this comment article, we show that some neutrino Yukawa interactions were missed in the model, thus implying that a different formula would be needed to determine the effective neutrino mass matrix, with significantly different results. Our result shows that, unlike stated in Phys. Lett. B789 (2019), that the inverted neutrino mass spectrum is not ruled out.

description: A symmetry breaking mechanism is shown to occur in an array composed of symmetric bistable Lorenz units coupled through a nearest neighbour scheme. When the coupling is increased, we observe the route: standing --> oscillating --> travelling front. In some circumstances, this route can be described in terms of a gluing of two cycles on the plane. In this case, the asymptotic behaviour of the velocity of the front is found straightforward. However, it may also happen that the gluing bifurcation involves a saddle-focus fixed point. If so, front dynamics may become quite complex displaying several oscillating and propagating regimes, including chaotic (Shil'nikov-type) front propagation. Finally, we compare our results with different couplings and with other discrete bistable media.

description: We studied the large-amplitude SU UMa-type dwarf nova V344 Lyr. A combination of our observations and reports to VSNET has yielded an extensive coverage of outbursts between 1994 July and 2001 June. The analysis of this data showed a mean supercycle length of 109.6 d. This value is one of the smallest among known SU UMa-type dwarf novae (except unusual ER UMa-type dwarf novae). The outburst amplitude of V344 Lyr (~5.5 mag) is found to be much larger than those (3.5 +/- 0.3 mag) of SU UMa-type dwarf novae with similar supercycle lengths. Such a deviation of the amplitude in V344 Lyr is difficult to explain by the inclination effect. The extreme outburst parameters of V344 Lyr would require an additional mechanism to effectively reduce the quiescent luminosity or to increase the outburst frequency.

The onset of e^+e^- -> tau^+ tau^- at threshold revisited

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: The precise knowledge of the onset of the cross section $σ(e^+e^- \to τ^+τ^-)$ at the threshold is necessary for improving the accuracy of determination of the $τ$ mass from the threshold measurements. The QED radiative corrections of relative order $α$ and $α^2$, additional to the well known Coulomb factor, are considered in the threshold region. The correction terms of order $α^2$ are calculated, which contain coefficients enhanced by large parameters. As a result it is argued that the known $O(α)$ corrections provide the accuracy of the description of the cross section close to $10^{-4}$, rather than $10^{-3}$ as claimed in a recent literature. Also analytical expressions are provided for some limiting cases of the corrections, previously calculated numerically.

description: We consider quantum quench in large-N singlet sector quantum mechanics of a single hermitian matrix in the double scaling limit. The time dependent parameter is the self-coupling of the matrix. We find exact classical solutions of the collective field theory of eigenvalue density with abrupt smooth quench profiles which asymptote to constant couplings at early and late times, and the system is initially in its ground state. With adiabatic initial conditions we find that adiabaticity is always broken regardless of the quench speed. In a class of quench profiles the saddle point solution for the collective field diverges at a finite time, and a further time evolution becomes ambiguous. However the underlying matrix model expressed in terms of fermions predict a smooth time evolution across this point. By studying fluctuations around the saddle point solution we interpret the emergent space-times. They generically have spacelike boundaries where the couplings of the fluctuations diverge. Only for very finely tuned quench profiles, the space-time is normal.

description: METEOR was a phase 3 trial (NCT01865747) of cabozantinib versus everolimus in adults with advanced or metastatic clear cell RCC previously treated with VEGF receptor (VEGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs). This post hoc analysis of METEOR compared outcomes for patients recruited from European and non-European countries. Adults with advanced/metastatic clear cell RCC who had received ≥ 1 prior VEGFR-TKI treatment were randomized 1:1 to receive cabozantinib or everolimus. Patients were categorized by recruitment region: Europe or outside of Europe (rest of world [RoW]). Progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), objective response rate (ORR), and adverse events (AEs) were compared between regional subgroups. In total, there were 320 eligible patients from Europe (cabozantinib, 167; everolimus, 153) and 338 from RoW (North America, 240 patients; Asia-Pacific, 86; Latin America, 12; randomized as cabozantinib, 163; everolimus, 175). PFS and OS were longer with cabozantinib than with everolimus and similar for the Europe and RoW subgroups. For PFS, the hazard ratio (HR) for cabozantinib versus everolimus was 0.54 for the Europe subgroup (p < .001) and 0.50 for the RoW subgroup (p < .001). For OS, the HR was 0.75 for the Europe subgroup (p = .034) and 0.69 for the RoW subgroup (p = .006). ORR in the Europe subgroup was 15% for cabozantinib and 3.9% for everolimus (p < .001). For the RoW subgroup, ORR was 20% for cabozantinib and 2.9% for everolimus (p < .001). Incidence of grade 3/4 AEs were similar for the Europe (cabozantinib, 74%; everolimus, 58%) and RoW subgroups (cabozantinib, 69%; everolimus, 64%). In the METEOR trial, efficacy outcomes for patients recruited from European and non-European countries favored cabozantinib over everolimus. The efficacy and safety results for the regional subgroups were consistent with those of the overall METEOR population.

description: The study of the topology of real algebraic varieties dates back to the work of Harnack, Klein and Hilbert in the 19th century; in particular, the isotopy type classification of real algebraic curves in real toric surfaces is a classical subject that has undergone considerable evolution. On the other hand, not much is known for more general ambient surfaces. We take a step forward in the study of topological types classification of real algebraic curves on non-toric surfaces focusing on real del Pezzo surfaces of degree $1$ and $2$ with multi-components real part. We use degeneration methods and real enumerative geometry in combination with variations of classical methods to give obstructions to topological types and to give constructions of real algebraic curves with prescribed topology.

description: This thesis exploits deep learning to develop real-time, super-resolution hologram generation. It first gives an overview of both the technologies of deep learning and holographic 3D displays. It demonstrates the strength of learning models and also identifies the challenges and limitations of conventional hologram computation methods for 3D scenes. These motivate us to explore the issues and seek solutions via deep generative models. We propose an original concept of introducing frequency modulators to allow the use of generative models to interpret frequency data directly. After training, this new mechanism enables the learning model to generate frequency samples with variations in the underlying generative features. Furthermore, a new generative model is proposed, named the channelled variational autoencoder (CVAE). We design this model specifically for hologram generation. Similar to generating frequency data, we use the spatial spectra of the hologram modulators (SSHM) as the training dataset. The trained CVAE can then interpret and learn the hidden structure of input holograms. It is thus able to generate holograms through the learning of the disentangled latent representations. For practical purposes, we propose a new technique called hologram super-resolution (HSR). It exploits a supervised learning model to function SSHM inputs to SSHM outputs. As a result, a well-trained HSR model is capable of super-resolving a low-resolution hologram input to a super-resolution hologram output. Based on the joint model of the proposed CVAE and HSR, we finally develop a new approach of producing super-resolved, complex-amplitude holograms for 3D scenes in real-time. It takes a 3D object as a basic element and then adds the holograms of all the 3D objects of one 3D scene together to obtain the ultimate hologram. The superposed hologram is able to reconstruct entire 3D objects. Most notably, this object-based method is much faster than traditional ways. Finally, the research examines the replay image quality of the generated hologram produced by the proposed approaches in two major holographic display systems. As the results show, it successfully demonstrates adequate holographic 3D displays.

description: A theory for stabilization of quantum resonances by a mechanism similar to one leading to classical resonances in nonlinear systems is presented. It explains recent surprising experimental results, obtained for cold Cesium atoms when driven in the presence of gravity, and leads to further predictions. The theory makes use of invariance properties of the system, that are similar to those of solids, allowing for separation into independent kicked rotor problems. The analysis relies on a fictitious classical limit where the small parameter is {\em not} Planck's constant, but rather the detuning from the frequency that is resonant in absence of gravity.

description: The process of automatic generation of a road map from GPS trajectories, called map inference, remains a challenging task to perform on a geospatial data from a variety of domains as the majority of existing studies focus on road maps in cities. Inherently, existing algorithms are not guaranteed to work on unusual geospatial sites, such as an airport tarmac, pedestrianized paths and shortcuts, or animal migration routes, etc. Moreover, deep learning has not been explored well enough for such tasks. This paper introduces COLTRANE, ConvolutiOnaL TRAjectory NEtwork, a novel deep map inference framework which operates on GPS trajectories collected in various environments. This framework includes an Iterated Trajectory Mean Shift (ITMS) module to localize road centerlines, which copes with noisy GPS data points. Convolutional Neural Network trained on our novel trajectory descriptor is then introduced into our framework to detect and accurately classify junctions for refinement of the road maps. COLTRANE yields up to 37% improvement in F1 scores over existing methods on two distinct real-world datasets: city roads and airport tarmac.

description: We carry out a systematic study of the density structure of gas in the Central Molecular Zone (CMZ) in the Galactic center by extracting clumps from the APEX Telescope Large Area Survey of the Galaxy survey at 870 $μ$m. We find that the clumps follow a scaling of $m = ρ_0 r^3$ which corresponds to a characteristic density of $n_{\rm H_2} = 1.6 \times 10^3\,\rm cm^{-3}$ ($ρ_0 =112\;M_{\odot}\;\rm pc^{-3}$) with a variation of $\approx 0.5\,\rm dex$, where we assumed a gas-to-dust mass ratio of 100. This characteristic density can be interpreted as the result of thermal pressure equilibrium between the molecular gas and the warm ambient interstellar medium. Such an equilibrium can plausibly be established since shear has approximately the same strength as self-gravity. Our findings may explain the fact that star formation in the CMZ is highly inefficient compared to the rest of the Milky Way disk. We also identify a population of clumps whose densities are two orders of magnitudes higher in the vicinity of the Sgr B2 region, which we propose are produced by collisions between the clumps of lower densities. For these collisions to occur, processes such as compressive tides probably have created the appropriate condition by assembling the clumps together.

Risk and Uncertainty

description: Based on a study conducted in a maritime fishing community in southern Sri Lanka, this paper attempts to show that fishermen adapting mechanized fishing are confronted with new risks which are either absent or weakly present in traditional fisheries. Insurance and credit markets are unlikely to emerge to cope with these risks. In a context of ineffective state institutions and inadequately developed insurance and credit markets, credit provided by fish merchants performs an important insurance function in addition to a credit function.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: The properties of functional relation between a non-invertible chaotic drive and a response map in the regime of generalized synchronization of chaos are studied. It is shown that despite a very fuzzy image of the relation between the current states of the maps, the functional relation becomes apparent when a sufficient interval of driving trajectory is taken into account. This paper develops a theoretical framework of such functional relation and illustrates the main theoretical conclusions using numerical simulations.

description: In observational studies, identification of ATEs is generally achieved by assuming that the correct set of confounders has been measured and properly included in the relevant models. Because this assumption is both strong and untestable, a sensitivity analysis should be performed. Common approaches include modeling the bias directly or varying the propensity scores to probe the effects of a potential unmeasured confounder. In this paper, we take a novel approach whereby the sensitivity parameter is the "proportion of unmeasured confounding:" the proportion of units for whom the treatment is not as good as randomized even after conditioning on the observed covariates. We consider different assumptions on the probability of a unit being unconfounded. In each case, we derive sharp bounds on the average treatment effect as a function of the sensitivity parameter and propose nonparametric estimators that allow flexible covariate adjustment. We also introduce a one-number summary of a study's robustness to the number of confounded units. Finally, we explore finite-sample properties via simulation, and apply the methods to an observational database used to assess the effects of right heart catheterization.

description: Conservation of wet zone forest in Sri Lanka is not a debatable point but yet economic justification for such programs are absolutely important. In one hand gradual decrease in forest cover as well as on the other hand limited amount of available recourses for biodiversity conservation put the forest policy makers in a difficult position. This paper examines this problem in the user’s point of view making enable the policy makers to understand their willingness to pay for such efforts. Based on contingent valuation method it is found that average willingness to pay for conservation of Sinharaja forest as Rs.664 per year, per person on average basis. This highlights the importance of conservation of this unique biological reserve.
Angular Momentum and Energy-Momentum Densities as Gauge Currents

description: If we replace the general spacetime group of diffeomorphisms by transformations taking place in the tangent space, general relativity can be interpreted as a gauge theory, and in particular as a gauge theory for the Lorentz group. In this context, it is shown that the angular momentum and the energy-momentum tensors of a general matter field can be obtained from the invariance of the corresponding action integral under transformations taking place, not in spacetime, but in the tangent space, in which case they can be considered as gauge currents.

Magnetic fields in our Galaxy: How much do we know? (II) Halo fields and the global field structure
Creators: name: Han, Jinlin

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: I review the large scale global magnetic field structure of our Galaxy, using all information available for disk fields, halo fields and magnetic fields near the Galactic center (GC). In the local disk of our Galaxy, RM and dispersion measure (DM) data of nearby pulsars yield the strength of regular field as 1.8$μ$G, with a pitch angle of about $8\degr$, and a bisymmetric spiral structure. There are at least four, maybe five, field reversals from the Norma arm to the outskirts of our Galaxy. In the thick disk or Galactic halo, large scale toroidal magnetic fields, with opposite field directions in the Southern and Northern Galaxy, have been revealed by the antisymmetric RM sky towards the inner Galaxy. This signature of the A0 dynamo-mode field structure is strengthened by the indication of a poloidal field of dipole form, that is the transition of the RM signs probably shifted from $l\sim0\degr$ to $l\sim+10\degr$. The local vertical field is probably a part of this dipole field. The field structure of the A0 dynamo-mode strikingly continues towards the region near the GC. In short, the magnetic fields in the Galactic disk have a bisymmetric spiral structure of primordial nature, while in the halo and near the GC the A0 dynamo seems to dominate, so that the fields consist of toroidal fields with opposite directions below and above the Galactic plane and poloidal fields of dipole form.

description: Evidence of silicate liquid immiscibility in ferrobasalts is provided by co-existing Fe- and Si-rich melt inclusions and Fe-rich droplets dispersed in the Si-rich glassy mesostasis of rapidly cooled rocks. Crucially, the different physical properties of these unmixed liquids mean that they may migrate and separate within a granular medium, forming chemically distinct accumulations. I combine experiments, geochemistry, image analysis and field observations to better quantify the physical behaviour of emulsions in ferrobasaltic magmas. Quantification of the microstructural evolution of an emulsion in ferrobasaltic experiments shows that the Fe-rich liquid forms homogeneously nucleated droplets dispersed in an immiscible Si-rich liquid, together with droplets heterogeneously nucleated on plagioclase, magnetite, and pyroxene. Heterogeneous nucleation is likely promoted by localised compositional heterogeneities around growing crystals. The equilibrium wetting angle of Fe-rich droplets on both plagioclase and magnetite increases with decreasing temperature. Droplet coarsening occurs by diffusion-controlled growth (including Ostwald ripening), with an insignificant contribution from coalescence. The experimental observations are scaled to infer that in magma bodies < ~10 m in size, gravitationally-driven segregation of immiscible Fe-rich droplets is unlikely to be significant. The same concepts are investigated using natural samples with preserved immiscible textures found in tholeiitic basaltic glass from Hawaii (USA), the Snake River Plain (USA), and the Laki eruption (Iceland). High-resolution imaging, electron probe microanalysis, and atom probe tomography are combined to examine the role played by compositional boundary layers in promoting unmixing around growing crystals at melt-crystal interfaces. The effects of cooling rate on silicate liquid immiscibility microstructure are studied using basaltic dykes from Northeast England, coupled with simple 1D thermal models. The size of Fe-rich droplets within a continuous silicic phase is found to increase with decreasing cooling rate. At the even slower cooling rate of the Skaergaard Intrusion, field, whole rock and petrographic observations of late-stage immiscible segregations show that complete segregation of unmixed liquids on the metre scale is feasible; therefore, timescales of cooling are shown to be a key factor in immiscible liquid separation.

description: We study the homology of Riemannian manifolds of finite volume that are covered by an $r$-fold product $(\mathbb{H}^2)^r = \mathbb{H}^2 \times \ldots \times \mathbb{H}^2$ of hyperbolic planes. Using a variation of a method developed by Avramidi and Nguyen-Phan, we show that any such manifold $M$ possesses, up to finite coverings, an arbitrarily large number of compact oriented flat totally geodesic $r$-dimensional submanifolds whose fundamental classes are linearly independent in the homology group $H_r(M;\mathbb{Z})$.
