description: PT-symmetric quantum mechanics, the extension of conventional quantum mechanics to the non-Hermitian Hamiltonian invariant under the combined parity (P) and time reversal (T) symmetry, has been successfully applied to a variety of fields such as solid state physics, mathematical physics, optics, quantum field theory. Recently, the extension of PT-symmetrical theory to entangled quantum systems was challenged in that PT formulation within the conventional Hilbert space violates the no-signaling principle. Here, we revisit the derivation of non-signaling principle in the framework of PT inner product prescription. Our results preserve the no-signaling principle for a two-qubit system, reaffirm the invariance of the entanglement, and reproduce the Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt (CHSH) inequality. We conclude that PT-symmetric quantum mechanics satisfies the requirements for a fundamental theory and provides a consistent description of quantum systems.

A Dutch Book against Sleeping Beauties Who Are Evidential Decision Theorists

description: In the context of the Sleeping Beauty problem, it has been argued that so-called "halfers" can avoid Dutch book arguments by adopting evidential decision theory. I introduce a Dutch book for a variant of the Sleeping Beauty problem and argue that evidential decision theorists fall prey to it, whether they are halfers or thirders. The argument crucially requires that an action can provide evidence for what the agent would do not only at other decision points where she has exactly the same information, but also at decision points where she has different but "symmetric" information.

description: We prove polarization theorems for arbitrary classical-quantum (cq) channels. The input alphabet is endowed with an arbitrary Abelian group operation and an Arıkan-style transformation is applied using this operation. It is shown that as the number of polarization steps becomes large, the synthetic cq-channels polarize to deterministic homomorphism channels which project their input to a quotient group of the input alphabet. This result is used to construct polar codes for arbitrary cq-channels and arbitrary classical-quantum multiple access channels (cq-MAC). The encoder can be implemented in $O(N\log N)$ operations, where $N$ is the blocklength of the code. A quantum successive cancellation decoder for the constructed codes is proposed. It is shown that the probability of error of this decoder decays faster than $2^{-N^β}$ for any $β

description: Lueyang black-bone chicken is free-range in hilly areas and has unique genetic characteristics and excellent muscle quality. However, the molecular mechanisms of breeding mode influence growth and meat quality in Lueyang black-bone chicken are still unclear. Here we analyzed the meat quality and transcriptome data of thigh muscle by comparing free-range and caged modes at the age of 60 and 120 days in Lueyang black-boned chicken. The results demonstrated that the free-range mode could improve the pH value, tenderness, and reducing the hardness of the thigh muscle. Intramuscular fat (IMF) content of the thigh muscle was markedly higher in the caged chickens compared with free-range animals at the age of 60 days. Functional pathway analysis illustrated that tight junction signaling was associated with the formation of slow-twitch fibers in free-range chickens at age of 120 days. All research data proved that the free-range mode could improve muscle quality by promoting the formation of slow-twitch fibers and IMF in thigh muscle in Lueyang black-bone chicken. Based on the animal benefit and healthy, the free-range feeding should be considered during the breeding process of broiler chicken. The results provide good knowledge of the functional molecular mechanisms associated with muscle quality in Lueyang black-bone chicken.

description: This paper is an introduction to the eleven works of the special issue on Quantum and Classical Frontiers of Noise. The weather, and its butterfly effect, is the typical example that explain why many natural phenomena are, in fact, not predictable with certainty. Noise in classical or quantum phenomena, understood as the difference between the empirical output of an experiment and its statistical prediction, is a measure of such uncertainty. One of the great contributions of noise appeared in 1905 when Einstein showed how the noisy (Brownian) motion of a dust particle seen in a microscope provided uncontroversial evidences on the existence of the (unseen) atoms. The aim of this special issue is to provoke discussions on how noise can help us to better understand (the reality behind) classical and quantum theories, and the frontier between them.

Non-uniqueness of quantum transition state theory and general dividing surfaces in the path integral space

description: Despite the fact that quantum mechanical principles do not allow the establishment of an exact quantum analogue of the classical transition state theory (TST), the development of a quantum TST (QTST) with a proper dynamical justification, while recovering the TST in the classical limit, has been a long standing theoretical challenge in chemical physics. One of the most recent efforts of this kind was put forth by Hele and Althorpe (HA) [ J. Chem. Phys. 138 , 084108 (2013)], which can be specified for any cyclically invariant dividing surface defined in the space of the imaginary time path integral. The present work revisits the issue of the non-uniqueness of QTST and provides a detailed theoretical analysis of HA-QTST for a general class of such path integral dividing surfaces. While we confirm that HA-QTST reproduces the result based on the ring polymer molecular dynamics (RPMD) rate theory for dividing surfaces containing only a quadratic form of low frequency Fourier modes, we find that it produces different results for those containing higher frequency imaginary time paths which accommodate greater quantum fluctuations. This result confirms the assessment made in our previous work [J. Chem. Phys. 144, 084110 (2016)] that HA-QTST does not provide a derivation of RPMD-TST in general, and points to a new ambiguity of HA-QTST with respect to its justification for general cyclically invariant dividing surfaces defined in the space of imaginary time path integrals. Our analysis also offers new insights into similar path integral based QTST approaches.

description: MicroRNAs have been recently reported to act as key regulators of adipogenesis, a multifactorial complex process. One miRNA, miR-302b, is an important regulator of cell proliferation and differentiation and controls cancer development, but we speculate that miR-302b may also regulate bovine adipogenesis. Herein we have evaluated the role of this miRNA in bovine adipocyte differentiation using quantitative Real-Time Polymerase Chain Reaction (qRT-PCR), Oil Red O staining, a dual-luciferase reporter. CDK2 was identified as the target gene of miR-302b, and miR-302b agomir promoted mRNA and protein expression levels of adipocyte-specific genes. In addition, a CCK-8 kit was used to show that miR-302b agomir, but not the negative control, inhibits preadipocyte proliferation. In conclusion, miR-302b promotes bovine preadipocyte differentiation and inhibits proliferation by targeting CDK2.

description: The DNA copy number variations (CNVs) are widely involved in affecting various kinds of biological functions, such as environmental adaptation. Tibetan sheep and White Suffolk sheep are two representative indigenous and exotic breeds raised in Sichuan, China, and both of them have many contrasting biological characteristics. In this study, we employed high-throughput sequencing approach to investigate genome-wide CNVs between the two sheep breeds. A total of 11,135 CNV regions (CNVRs) consisting of 6,488 deletions and 4,647 duplications were detected, whose length ranged from 1,599 bp to 0.56 Mb with the mean of 4,658 bp. There were 281 CNVRs segregated between Tibetan sheep and White Suffolk sheep, and 18 of them have been fixed within both breeds. Functional analyses of candidate genes within the segregating CNVRs revealed the thyroid hormone signaling pathway and CTNNB1 gene that would be responsible for differential biological characteristics of breeds, such as energy metabolism, seasonal reproduction, and litter size. Furthermore, the segregating CNVRs identified in this study were overlapped with many known quantitative trait loci that are associated with growth, testis weight, and reproductive seasonality. In conclusion, these results help us better understanding differential biological characteristics between Tibetan sheep and White Suffolk sheep.
Tidally driven mean flows in slowly and uniformly rotating massive main sequence stars

Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We calculate tidally driven mean flows in a slowly and uniformly rotating massive main sequence star in a binary system. We treat the tidal potential due to the companion as a small perturbation to the primary star. We compute tidal responses of the primary as forced linear oscillations, as a function of the tidal forcing frequency $ω_{\rm tide}=2(Ω_{\rm orb}-Ω)$, where $Ω_{\rm orb}$ is the mean orbital angular velocity and $Ω$ is the angular velocity of rotation of the primary star. The amplitude of the tidal responses is proportional to the parameter $f_0\propto (M_2/M)(a_{\rm orb}/R)^{-3}$, where $M$ and $M_2$ are the masses of the primary and companion stars, $R$ is the radius of the primary and $a_{\rm orb}$ is the mean orbital separation between the stars. For a given $f_0$, the amplitudes depend on $ω_{\rm tide}$ and become large when $ω_{\rm tide}$ is in resonance with natural frequencies of the star. Using the tidal responses, we calculate axisymmetric mean flows, assuming that the mean flows are non-oscillatory flows driven via non-linear effects of linear tidal responses. We find that the $ϕ$-component of the mean flow velocity dominates. We also find that the amplitudes of the mean flows are large only in the surface layers where non-adiabatic effects are significant and that the amplitudes are confined to the equatorial regions of the star. Depending on $M_2/M$ and $a_{\rm orb}/R$, the amplitudes of mean flows at the surface become significant.

We establish an almost sharp condition on reactions which characterizes the existence and non-existence of fronts. In particular, we prove that a strong inhomogeneity in the reaction prevents formation of transition fronts, while a weak inhomogeneity gives rise to a front. Our work extends results and methods introduced by J. Nolen, J.M. Roquejoffre, L. Ryzhik, and A. Zlatoš.

Detection of the liquid-liquid transition in the deeply cooled water confined in MCM-41 with elastic neutron scattering technique

description: In this paper we present a review on our recent experimental investigations into the phase behavior of the deeply cooled water confined in a nanoporous silica material, MCM-41, with elastic neutron scattering technique. Under such strong confinement, the homogeneous nucleation process of water is avoided, which allows the confined water to keep its liquid state at temperatures and pressures that are inaccessible to the bulk water. By measuring the average density of the confined heavy water, we observe a likely first-order low-density liquid (LDL) to high-density liquid (HDL) transition in the deeply cooled region of the confined heavy water. The phase separation starts from 1.12 +- 0.17 kbar and 215 +- 1K and extends to higher pressures and lower temperatures in the phase diagram. This starting point could be the liquid-liquid critical point of the confined water. The locus of the Widom line is also estimated. The observation of the liquid-liquid transition in the confined water has potential to explain the mysterious behaviors of water at low temperatures. In addition, it may also have impacts on other disciplines, because the confined water system represents many biological and geological systems in which water resides in nanoscopic pores or in the vicinity of hydrophilic or hydrophobic surfaces.

description: Heat stress affects the animal production and causes serious economic losses to the husbandry. Tectonin beta-propeller repeat containing 2 (TECPR2) gene plays an important role in autophagy which may affect the temperature sensation in animals. A missense mutation (XM_024981840.1:c.3989 G > A p.Arg1330His) of the transcripts X4 in the bovine TECPR2 gene was identified. In this study, the c.3989 G > A variant in TECPR2 gene was genotyped in a total of 25 cattle breeds (520 individuals). Our results indicated that the frequency of A allele showed a decreasing pattern from southern cattle to northern cattle, while the frequency of G allele showed the opposite pattern, which was consistent with the climate distribution of China. Compared with the GG genotype, southern cattle carried more the AA and AG genotypes. Furthermore, the association results carried out that the frequencies of genotypes (GG, AG, AA) and the value of climate parameters (mean annual temperature (T), relative humidity (RH) and temperature humidity index (THI) were significantly correlated (p < 0.01). Hence, we speculated that the c.3989 G > A variant of TECPR2 gene was associated with the heat tolerance trait in Chinese cattle and the locus may be considered as a molecular marker for Chinese cattle breeding.

description: Our aim is to identify brown dwarf members of the nearby Hyades open star cluster to determine the photometric and spectroscopic properties of brown dwarfs at moderately old ages and extend the knowledge of the substellar mass function of the cluster. We cross-matched the 2MASS and AllWISE public catalogues and measured proper motions to identify low-mass stars and brown dwarf candidates in an area of radius eight degrees around the central region of the Hyades cluster. We identified objects with photometry and proper motions consistent with cluster membership. For the faintest ($J$\,=\,17.2 mag) most promising astrometric and photometric low-mass candidate 2MASS\,J04183483$+$2131275\@, with a membership probability of 94.5\%, we obtained low-resolution (R\,=\,300--1000) and intermediate-resolution (R\,=\,2500) spectroscopy with the 10.4m Gran Telescopio Canarias. From the low-resolution spectra we determined a L5.0$\pm$0.5 spectral type, consistent with the available photometry. In the intermediate dispersion spectrum we detected H$α$ in emission (marginally resolved with a full width half maximum of $\sim$2.8 Å) and determined a $\log ($L$_{\rm{H}α}$/L$_{\rm bol})=-6.0$ dex. From H$α$ we obtained a radial velocity of 38.0$\pm$2.9 km$\cdot$s$^{-1}$, which combined with the proper motion leads to space velocities which are fully consistent with membership in the Hyades cluster.

description: In this paper, by proposing a generalized $specific~volume$, we restudy the $P-V$ criticality of charged AdS black holes in the extended phase space. The results show that most of the previous conclusions can be generalized without change, but the ratio $\tildeρ_c$ should be $3 \tildeα/16$ in general case. Further research on the thermodynamical phase transition of black hole leads us to a natural interpretation of our assumption, and more black hole properties can be generalized. Finally, we study the number density for charged AdS black hole in higher dimensions, the results show the necessity of our assumption.

description: This study investigated potential mechanism of dibutyryl-cAMP (db-cAMP) on porcine fat deposition. (1) Exp.1, 72 finishing pigs were allotted to 3 treatments (0, 10 or 20 mg/kg dbcAMP) with 6 replicates. dbcAMP increased the hormone sensitive lipase (HSL) activity and expression of β-adrenergic receptor (β-AR) and growth hormone receptor (GHR), but decreased expression of peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma 2 (PPAR-γ2) and adipocyte fatty acid binding protein (A-FABP) in back fat. dbcAMP upregulated expression of β-AR, GHR, PPAR-γ2 and A-FABP, but decreased insulin receptor (INSR) expression in abdominal fat. Dietary dbcAMP increased HSL activity and expression of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), cAMP-response element-binding protein (CREB) and insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1), but decreased fatty acid synthase (FAS) and lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activities, and expression of INSR, cAMP-response element-binding protein (C/EBP-α) and A-FABP in perirenal fat. (2) Exp. 2, dbcAMP suppressed the proliferation and differentiation of porcine preadipocytes in a time- and dose-dependent manner, which might be associated with increased activities of cAMP and protein kinase A (PKA), and expression of GPCR, β-AR, GHR and CREB via inhibiting C/EBP-α and PPAR-γ2 expression. Collectively, dbcAMP treatment may reduce fat deposition by regulating gene expression related to adipocyte differentiation and fat metabolism partially via cAMP-PKA pathway.

description: This study introduces a novel underwater in-situ induction heat treatment (UIHT) technique, proposed for the first time, to modulate microstructure and improve the performance of underwater laser-directed energy deposition (ULDED) samples. The results showed that the redistributive behavior of alloying elements during the UIHT process promotes the α′→α + β transition. Furthermore, the high temperature enables dislocation motion, and the heterogeneous dislocations cancel each other out, causing a decrease in the dislocation density. Notably, the changes in mechanical properties are primarily attributed to the changes in α grain size and dislocation density. The decomposition of martensite α′ with a high dislocation density increases the possibility of intergranular slip. The homogeneously dispersed α+β microstructure promotes coordinated deformation during slip, enhancing the ductility of the specimen and reducing the anisotropy of its mechanical properties. This study offers valuable guidelines for microgroup tailoring and property modulation of ULDED-repaired titanium alloys.

description: Exciton Scattering (ES) theory attributes excited electronic states to standing waves in quasi-one-dimensional molecular materials by assuming a quasi-particle picture of optical excitations. The quasi-particle properties at branching centers are described by the corresponding scattering matrices. Here we identify the topological invariant of scattering center, referred to as its winding number, and apply topological intersection theory to count the number of quantum states in a quasi-one-dimensional system.

Dear Library Patron: Letters are UX, too!

Subjects: subject: Library science

description: During summer 2023, I undertook a project to clean up and streamline the automated letters sent to patrons from the SVA Library's Alma ILS. Letters are part of the user experience of a library; making them friendly and easy to understand, as well as branded with school logos and colors, enhances the patron experience while also communicating only the information that is needed. Through a systematic process of identifying triggers for each letter, I reduced the number of letters sent to patrons from 83 to 6 and internal letters from 54 to 7. Extraneous letters were turned off and a spreadsheet with documentation of each letter's status and reasoning was sent to the associate library director and circulation managers. Updates were also made to the letters' xsl stylesheets to modify the letters' greeting with a friendlier salutation, and the footer was reformatted to include social media handles and a link to the patron's library account.
Entanglement and Nonlocality in Diagonal Symmetric States of $N$-qubits

description: We analyze entanglement and nonlocal properties of the convex set of symmetric $N$-qubits states which are diagonal in the Dicke basis. First, we demonstrate that within this set, positivity of partial transposition (PPT) is necessary and sufficient for separability --- which has also been reported recently in https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevA.94.060101 {Phys. Rev. A \textbf{94}, 060101(R) (2016)}. Further, we show which states among the entangled DS are nonlocal under two-body Bell inequalities. The diagonal symmetric convex set contains a simple and extended family of states that violate the weak Peres conjecture, being PPT with respect to one partition but violating a Bell inequality in such partition. Our method opens new directions to address entanglement and non-locality on higher dimensional symmetric states, where presently very few results are available.

Magnetotransport in Weyl semimetal nanowires

description: We theoretically study the band structure and the electronic transport in the Weyl semimetal nanowires in magnetic fields, and demonstrate that the interplay of the Fermi-arc surface states and the bulk Landau levels plays a crucial role in the magnetotransport. We show that a magnetic field perpendicular to the surface immediately hybridizes the counter-propagating surface modes into a series of dispersionless 0th Landau levels, and it leads to a significant reduction of the traveling modes and a rapid decay of the conductance. On the contrary, a magnetic field parallel to the wire adds linearly-dispersed 0th Landau levels to the traveling modes and increases the conductance.

description: Aims. We aim to understand the unexpected presence of mm-wave molecular absorption at -200 \kms $< {\rm v} < -140$ \kms\ in a direction that is well away from regions of the Galactic bulge where CO emission at such velocities is prominent. Methods. We compared 89 GHz Cycle 2 ALMA absorption spectra of \hcop, HCN, and HNC toward the extragalactic continuum source B1741-312 at l=-2.14\degr, b=-1.00\degr\ with existing CO, H I, and dust emission and absorption measurements. We placed the atomic and molecular gas in the bulge and disk using circular and non-circular galactic kinematics, deriving N(H I) from a combination of 21cm emission and absorption and we derive N(\HH) from scaling of the \hcop\ absorption. We then inverted the variation of near-IR reddening E(J-K) with distance modulus and scale E(J-K) to a total gas column density N(H) that may be compared to N(H I) and N(\HH). Results. At galactocentric radii \Rgal\ $>$ 1.5 kpc, conventional measures such as the standard CO-\HH\ conversion factor and locally observed N(\hcop)/N(\HH) ratio separately imply that H I and \HH\ contribute about equally to N(H), and the gas-derived N(H) values are in broad agreement with those derived from E(J-K).
