description: Xylella fastidiosa is an emerging problem among infective agents threatening crops of commercial interest in the Mediterranean region, most notably Eastern Spain and Southern Italy. Infections determined by X. fastidiosa subspecies multiplex and X. fastidiosa subspecies pauca, affect respectively almond and olive trees, and represent a major concern in these two countries. Ecological and economic damages that Xylella spp. can cause, therefore, recommend measures aimed at preventing further spreading across different plants and areas of agricultural interest.
 Among molecules with intrinsic antimicrobial activity, phage-encoded endolysins constitute a natural tool which may be used in the biological warfare against pathogenic microbes. Lytic and lysogenic phages express endolysins at the late stage of the infection in order to degrade the host cell wall and favor the dispersal of viral particles in the environment. A number of phages capable of infecting Xylella spp. have been already sequenced, and lysogenic phages can be identified from available Xylella spp. pure culture genomes. Thus far, we have identified hundreds putative endolysins from genomic data with the aim of exploring their efficiency as antimicrobial agents against X. fastidiosa. We found 159 candidate anti-Xylella endolysins belonging to four mayor clades with possible differential specificity against X. fastidiosa subspecies. Among these proteins, we selected a subset of interest for biotechnology application based on distinctive features of their sequences and predicted protein structures.
 Clearly, new genomic data from further isolates of X. fastidiosa and relative phages will extend the information regarding spreading and diversity of this plant pathogen. At the same time, this information will also increase the available database of endolysins for the identification and testing of novel candidate anti-microbial molecules.

description: We show theoretically that carriers confined in semiconductor colloidal nanoplatelets (NPLs) sense the presence of neighbor, cofacially stacked NPLs in their energy spectrum. When approaching identical NPLs, the otherwise degenerate energy levels redshift and split, forming (for large stacks) minibands of several meV width. Unlike in epitaxial structures, the molecular behavior does not result from quantum tunneling but from changes in the dielectric confinement. The associated excitonic absorption spectrum shows a rich structure of bright and dark states, whose optical activity and multiplicity can be understood from reflection symmetry and Coulomb tunneling. We predict spectroscopic signatures which should confirm the formation of molecular states, whose practical realization would pave the way to the development of nanocrystal chemistry based on NPLs.

description: Family ASCIDIIDAE Adams and Adams, 1858    Type genus: Ascidia Linnaeus 1767.
The family is relatively uniform, the large phlebobranch species having smooth, thick, firm, gelatinous and slightly translucent test, smooth on the outer surface and usually lacking epibionts or adhering particles. Branchial tentacles are simple and a large flat branchial sac has regular rows of rectangular stigmata and numerous uninterrupted internal longitudinal branchial vessels held away from the perforated pharyngeal wall by papillae. The gut, with gonads enclosed in its primary loop, is embedded in the left pallial body wall alongside the pharynx. A large branching tubular ovary and a mass of testis follicles are crowded in the gut loop.
 Only two of the genera (Ascidia and Phallusia) in this family are even moderately speciose. The difference between them is associated with their size, Phallusia spp. being particularly large solitary individuals, and often vertical, fixed in sediments by the posterior end of the body. The dorsal ganglion and gland are about one-third to a half of the way down the body, separated from the opening of the gland on the dorsal tubercle (which remains just behind the ring of branchial tentacle at the anterior end of the body). This separation is compensated for by the multiple openings into the atrial cavity along the length of the neural duct. This character also occurs in some Ascidia spp. and may be associated with the size of the individuals rather then being a character of the genus.
 Ascidia spp. usually are smaller individuals, often fixed to the substrate by the whole or part of the left side of the body and usually (though not always) with the dorsal gland and ganglion near the dorsal tubercle.
 Both Ascidia and Phallusia are commonly recorded from the tropical Indo-west Pacific. Nevertheless, in the present collection the family is represented by only two species, one from each of these genera, namely Ascidia conifera, a species recorded on a few previous occasions from deeper continental shelf waters, and Phallusia millari, a commonly recorded species in the tropical Indo-west Pacific.

description: A theory of nucleus-nucleus collisions has been developed for kinetic energies substantially in excess of the binding energy. The very high pressure produced in the compound system as a result of the fusion of the two colliding nuclei is the reason for the subsequent hydrodynamic expansion of the nuclear medium. The energy and angular distributions of the reaction products are investigated. The charge distribution is also determined in the case where the nucleon and ion components of the reaction products are predominant. A solution is found for the expansion into vacuum of a sphere in which the initially uniformly distributed material is initially at rest and at an ultrarelativistic temperature.

The calculation is based on an approximate mapping of the problem with a realistic Coulomb interaction law onto exactly solvable models of mathematical physics. This approach becomes asymptotically exact in the limit of small wire radius but remains numerically accurate even for modestly thin wires.

description: Philaenus spumarius (Hemiptera: Aphrophoridae) is a major vector of Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) in Europe. However, the drivers influencing its abundance are still poorly known. In Corsica from 2018 to 2020, we monitored the abundance of P. spumarius three times a year in 64 permanent plots distributed along vegetation and altitudinal (0-600m) gradients. The vegetation gradient ranged from shrubland to oak forest and accounted for the density of Cistus monspeliensis on which P. spumarius usually develops and feed in Corsica. Abundance of P. spumarius was estimated through visual counting of foams and sweep netting of adults. Both vegetation composition and climate descriptors were recorded at each sampling location. We used partial least squares path modelling and generalized linear mixed models to unravel the relationships between vegetation / climate descriptors and P. spumarius abundance. Philaenus spumarius abundance significantly decreases with increasing average temperature. Abundance of P. spumarius was significantly and positively correlated with C. monspeliensis density, confirming difference in host plant preference between Corsica and mainland France. A significant effect of vegetation structure was also found with forests hosting lower P. spumarius abundance. The strong association observed between P. spumarius and C. monspeliensis suggests that Xf expansion may have been facilitated by firebreaks or disturbed habitats where C. monspeliensis is abundant as an early colonizer. Managing C. monspeliensis in the vicinity of agricultural areas may constitute an essential component of prophylaxis against Xf in Corsica.

description: Nb3Sn (Tc ~ 18 K and Hsh ~ 400 mT) is a prospective material to replace Nb (Tc ~ 9 K and Hsh ~ 200 mT) in SRF accelerator cavities for significant cost reduction and performance enhancement. Because of its material properties, Nb3Sn is best employed as a thin film (coating) inside an already built RF cavity structure. A particular test cavity noted as C3C4 was a 1.5 GHz single-cell Nb cavity, coated with Nb3Sn using Sn vapor diffusion process at Jefferson Lab. Cold measurements of the coated cavity indicated the superconducting transition temperature of about 18 K. Subsequent RF measurements indicated field-dependent surface resistance both at 4.3 K and 2.0 K. After initial cold measurements, the cavity RF loss distribution was studied with a thermometry mapping system. Loss regions were identified with thermometry and were cut out for material analysis. The presence of significantly thin patchy regions and other carbon-rich defects is associated with strong local field-dependent surface resistance. This paper summarizes RF and thermometry results correlated with material science findings.

description: Let $G$ be a noncompact connected simple Lie group, and $(G,G^Γ)$ a Klein four symmetric pair. In this paper, the author shows a necessary condition for the discrete decomposability of unitarizable simple $(\mathfrak{g},K)$-modules for Klein for symmetric pairs. Precisely, if certain conditions hold for $(G,G^Γ)$, there does not exist any unitarizable simple $(\mathfrak{g},K)$-module that is discretely decomposable as a $(\mathfrak{g}^Γ,K^Γ)$-module. As an application, for $G=\mathrm{E}_{6(-14)}$, the author obtains a complete classification of Klein four symmetric pairs $(G,G^Γ)$ with $G^Γ$ noncompact, such that there exists at least one nontrivial unitarizable simple $(\mathfrak{g},K)$-module that is discretely decomposable as a $(\mathfrak{g}^Γ,K^Γ)$-module and is also discretely decomposable as a $(\mathfrak{g}^σ,K^σ)$-module for some nonidentity element $σ\inΓ$.

description: Einstein's equations are solved for spherically symmetric universes composed of dust with tangential pressure provided by angular momentum, L(R), which differs from shell to shell. The metric is given in terms of the shell label, R, and the proper time, tau, experienced by the dust particles. The general solution contains four arbitrary functions of R - M(R), L(R), E(R) and r(0,R). The solution is described by quadratures, which are in general elliptic integrals. It provides a generalization of the Lemaitre-Tolman-Bondi solution. We present a discussion of the types of solution, and some examples. The relationship to Einstein clusters and the significance for gravitational collapse is also discussed.

description: Family CIALLUSIIDAE Van Name, 1918    Type genus: Ciallusia Van Name, 1918 (< Pterygascidia Sluiter, 1904).
The monotypic family, known only from deeper waters of the Indo-west Pacific (Kott 2008a), is a family of the Phlebobranchia with many rows of oval non-ciliated perforations in the pharyngeal wall, dorsal languets, internal stomach folds and a cylindrical stalk from the posterior end of the body. It may be related to the Corellidae but the gut is on the left side of the body, the stigmata are not coiled and the fine internal longitudinal stomach folds are unique.
 Pterygascidia inversa Monniot C. and F., 1991 is said to lack stigmata, thereby implying a relationship with the Ciallusiidae. However, it also lacks the perforated pharyngeal wall characteristic of the latter family and the absence of ciliated epithelium in this specimen is not homologous with its absence in Pterygascidia (Kott 2008a). The specimen is discussed later (see Corellidae).

description: In this article we provide an overview of the extensive literature on the impact of weather and climate on grapes and wine with the goal of describing how climate change is likely to affect their production. We start by discussing the physical impact of weather on vine phenology, berry composition and yields, and then survey the economic literature measuring the effects of temperature on wine quality, prices, costs and profits and how climate change will affect these. We also describe what has been learned so far about possible adaptation strategies for grape growers that would allow them to mitigate the economic effects of climate change. We conclude that climate change is likely to produce winners and losers, with the winners being those closer to the North and South Poles. There are also likely to be some substantial short run costs as growers adapt to climate change. Nevertheless, wine making has survived through thousands of years of recorded history, a history that includes large climate changes.

We determine the phase diagram of the system as a function of the knot position and chemical potential, also discussing the effects of topological frustration. The stability of the topological Kitaev tie is addressed by a careful analysis of the system free energy.

description: Family STYELIDAE Sluiter, 1895    Type genus: Styela Fleming, 1822.
 Generally members of the family are readily recognized by their simple branchial tentacles, plain-edged dorsal lamina, up to four folds in the branchial sac (although often these are reduced in the small zooids of colonial species), glandular folds in the stomach wall, but no arborescent diverticulum of the gut wall and usually a number of hermaphrodite gonads on each side of the body. The family is diverse, containing commonly recorded solitary species in the genera Styela, Cnemidocarpa and Polycarpa, as well as the colonial sub-families Botryllinae and Polyzoinae and highly adapted deep-water genera including Bathyoncus Herdman, 1882 which lack a perforated pharyngeal wall. Other known genera (Kott 1985; Monniot C and Monniot F 1990, 1991; Sanamyan KE and Sanamyan NP 2006) with transversely elongated stigmata in branchial walls which lack folds are Bathystyeloides Seeliger, 1904 and Dicarpa Millar, 1955. The open meshes of the pharyngeal region in Bathyoncus are convergent characters closely resembling those of deep-sea representatives of other genera in a range of families of phlebobranch and stolidobranch species (e.g., Culeolus later) from deep waters of the continental slope and ocean basins (Monniot C and Monniot F 1991)
 Six species of the genus Bathyoncus are now known, they can be divided into two groups, one containing the type species, B. mirabilis Herdman, 1882 and B. lanatus, having long cnemidocarp-type gonads. The other six known species presently assigned to the genus (see Key later) with polycarp-type gonads may justify the erection of a separate genus.
 In view of the frequency of reports of the solitary sub-family Styelinae in shallow waters all around the Australian coast and in continental shelf locations in all oceans, it is surprising that only two of the taxa previously reported from the area are present in this collection (Styela plicata and Polycarpa pigmentata). The colonial sub-families are not represented at all, and the only representative of the deep-water genera listed previously is the specimen of Bathyoncus lanatus. The new species of Polycarpa has gonads reminiscent of those in Polycarpa perstellata Monniot F. and C., 2003, taken in deep (960 m) waters off Fiji.

 The family contains a variety of genera with distinctive morphology at all depths, from the intertidal to deep ocean basins. The type genus is the most speciose, with a less radical morphology than many of the other genera and generally is found in shallower locations than those explored in the present survey. A single specimen of Molgula is the only representative of this family in the present collection.
Characteristic of the family is the relatively thin test, often with hairs on the surface (to which sand adheres) either all over or on some part of the body, branched branchial tentacles, longitudinal muscle bands radiating from each of the siphons overlapping on each side of the body, coiled stigmata forming tall, often subdivided conical infundibula in the branchial folds, complex folds and pouches in the wall of the pyloric region of the gut, a single hermaphrodite gonad on each side of the body with the testis follicles partially or completely surrounding, or in a clump at the proximal end of, the tubular or sac-like ovary and a relatively large kidney vesicle on the right side of the body.

Comparison between two methods of post-Newtonian expansion for the motion in a weak Schwarzschild field

description: The asymptotic method of post-Newtonian (PN) expansion for weak gravitational fields, recently developed, is compared with the standard method of PN expansion, in the particular case of a massive test particle moving along a geodesic line of a weak Schwarzschild field. First, the expression of the active mass in Schwarzschild's solution is given for a barotropic perfect fluid, both for general relativity (GR) and for an alternative, scalar theory. The principle of the asymptotic method is then recalled and the PN expansion of the active mass is derived. The PN correction to the active mass is made of the Newtonian elastic energy, augmented, for the scalar theory, by a term due to the self-reinforcement of the gravitational field. Third, two equations, both correct to first order, are derived for the geodesic motion of a mass particle: a "standard" one and an "asymptotic" one. Finally, the difference between the solutions of these two equations is numerically investigated in the case of Mercury. The asymptotic solution deviates from the standard one like the square of the time elapsed since the initial time. This is due to a practical shortcoming of the asymptotic method, which is shown to disappear if one reinitializes the asymptotic problem often enough. Thus, both methods are equivalent in the case investigated. In a general case, the asymptotic method seems more natural.

V2: the cure outlined in V1, to remedy a numerical shortcoming of the asymptotic method, has been implemented. Result: in the investigated case of a test particle in a weak Schwarzschild field, the standard and asymptotic methods of PN expansion are definitely equivalent, also numerically

description: Recently, HTTP Adaptive Streaming HAS has received significant attention from both industry and academia based on its ability to enhancing media streaming services over the Internet. Recent research solutions that have tried to improve HAS by adaptation at the client side only may not be completely effective without interacting with routing decisions in the upper layers. In this paper, we address the aforementioned issue by proposing a dynamic bandwidth allocation and management architecture for streaming video flows to improve users satisfaction. We also introduce an initial cross layer hybrid method that combines quality adaptation of variable bitrate video streaming over the HTTP protocol at the client side and SDN based dynamical routing. This scheme is enabled by the Software Defined Networking architecture that is now being considered as an emerging paradigm that disassociates the forwarding process from the routing process. SDN brings flexibility and the ability to flexibly change routing solutions, in turn resulting in dynamically improving the services provided in the application layer. Our experimental results show that the proposed solution offers significantly higher overall bitrates as well as smoother viewing experience than existing methods.

The determinant represents a version of the isomonodromic $τ$-function, itroduced by M. Sato, T. Miwa and M. Jimbo. It is calculated by comparison of two sections of the $\mathrm{det}^*$-bundle over an infinite-dimensional grassmannian. The latter is composed of the spaces of boundary values of some local solutions to Dirac equation. The principal ingredients of the computation are the formulae for the Green function of the singular Dirac operator and for the so-called canonical basis of global solutions on the 1-punctured cylinder. We also derive a set of deformation equations satisfied by the expansion coefficients of the canonical basis in the general case and find a more explicit expression for the $τ$-function in the simplest case $n=2$.

description: A complete Lagrangian and Hamiltonian description of the theory of self-gravitating light-like matter shells is given in terms of gauge-independent geometric quantities. For this purpose the notion of an extrinsic curvature for a null-like hypersurface is discussed and the corresponding Gauss-Codazzi equations are proved. These equations imply Bianchi identities for spacetimes with null-like, singular curvature. Energy-momentum tensor-density of a light-like matter shell is unambiguously defined in terms of an invariant matter Lagrangian density. Noether identity and Belinfante-Rosenfeld theorem for such a tensor-density are proved. Finally, the Hamiltonian dynamics of the interacting system: ``gravity + matter'' is derived from the total Lagrangian, the latter being an invariant scalar density.

description: Central collisions induced by high energy radioactive beams can be used as a novel means to obtain crucial information about the high density ({\rm HD}) behaviour of nuclear symmetry energy. This information is critical for understanding several key issues in astrophysics. Within an isospin-dependent hadronic transport model using phenomenological equations of state ({\rm EOS}) for dense neutron-rich matter, we investigate several experimental probes of the HD behavior of nuclear symmetry energy, such as, the $π^-$ to $π^+$ ratio, neutron-proton differential flow and its excitation function. Measurements of these observables will provide the first terrestrial data to constrain stringently the HD behaviour of nuclear symmetry energy and thus also the {\rm EOS} of dense neutron-rich matter.

Temperature and field dependence of MgB2 energy gaps from tunneling spectra
Creators: name: Badr, Mohamed H.

Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Superconductivity (cond-mat.supr-con)

description: We have synthesized MgB2/Pb planar junctions to study the temperature and field dependence of the superconducting energy gap of MgB2. The major peak occurs at Delta of about 2 meV, and this corresponds to a 2Delta/kBTc value of 1.18. While this is significantly smaller than the BCS weak coupling value, there are features in the tunneling spectra indicating the possibility of another larger gap. By fitting the dI/dV curves with a simple model, the larger gap is estimated to be about 4.5 times the smaller gap. The study of the effect of magnetic field on the junctions shows a stability only up to a field of 3.2T then junctions "collapsed" into Josephson tunneling for higher fields. Estimation of the major energy gap from Josephson tunneling is consistent with that from quasiparticle tunneling.

Regularizing the r-mode problem for nonbarotropic relativistic stars

description: We present results for r-modes of relativistic nonbarotropic stars. We show that the main differential equation, which is formally singular at lowest order in the slow-rotation expansion, can be regularized if one considers the initial value problem rather than the normal mode problem. However, a more physically motivated way to regularize the problem is to include higher order terms. This allows us to develop a practical approach for solving the problem and we provide results that support earlier conclusions obtained for uniform density stars. In particular, we show that there will exist a single r-mode for each permissible combination of $l$ and $m$. We discuss these results and provide some caveats regarding their usefulness for estimates of gravitational-radiation reaction timescales. The close connection between the seemingly singular relativistic r-mode problem and issues arising because of the presence of corotation points in differentially rotating stars is also clarified.

TT Arietis: 40 years of photometry

description: In an effort to characterize variations on the time scale of hours and smaller during the high and low states of the novalike variable TT Ari, light curves taken over the course of more than 40 yr are analyzed. It is found that the well known negative superhump observed during the high state persists until the present day at an average period of 0.13295 d which is slightly variable from year to year and exhibits substantial amplitude changes. The beat period between superhump and orbital period is also seen. QPOs occur at a preferred quasi-period of 18 -- 25 min and undergo a systematic frequency evolution during a night. The available data permit for the first time a detailed investigation of the low state which is highly structured on time-scales of tens of days. On hourly time scales the light curve exhibits strong variations which are mostly irregular. However, during an interval of several days at the start of the low state, coherent 1.2 mag oscillations with a period of 8.90 h are seen. During the deep low state quiet phases and strong (1.5 -- 3 mag), highly structured flares alternate in irregular intervals of roughly 1 day. The quiet phases are modulated on the orbital period of TT Ari, suggesting reflection of the light of the primary component off the secondary. This is the first time that the orbital period is seen in photometric data.

description: The following article examines the impact of Hurricane Katrina on small business success and adaptation. Small business success is characterized as increased revenues when compared to pre-disaster levels. Adaptation is characterized as post-Katrina changes to business infrastructure. A multivariate probit with sample selection allows the empirical analysis to account for the simultaneity of changes in revenue and adaptation and also sample selection bias introduced through business demise. The results suggest the importance of pre-disaster mitigation and adaptation activities as well as the effectiveness of formal financial resources in supporting adaptation. Informal financial resources are found to be largely ineffective.

description: We consider the superposition of the first two members of the gravitational hierarchy (Einstein plus first Gauss-Bonnet(GB)) interacting with the superposition of the first two members of the $SO_{(\pm)}(d)$ Yang--Mills hierarchy, in $d$ dimensions. Such systems can occur in the low energy effective action of string theory. Particle-like solutions %for the systems with only an Einstein term, and with only a GB term, in dimensions $d=6,8$ are constructed respectively. Our results reveal qualitatively new properties featuring double-valued solutions with critical behaviour. In this preliminary study, we have restricted ourselves to one-node solutions.

description: In the spring of 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic created interest in home gardening as well as shortages in the availability of bulk and bagged compost at local garden centers and bagged compost at national retailers. Because of this shortage, several community groups organized four sites throughout the city of Knoxville, Tennessee, where residents could pick up compost at no cost. To assess the feasibility of long-term plans for community composting, a survey was conducted to determine community views on local composting. This report reviews the results of the survey sent out to neighborhood residents in Knoxville, Tennessee, between September 13, 2020, and November 3, 2020. The survey was solicited through text messages (from those who provided a phone number when they picked up compost) and the City of Knoxville Neighborhood Newsletter, asking for their views on community composting. Survey results indicate: • Most all respondents are supportive of having community compost in their neighborhoods. • Most all are willing to save home food scraps for community composting (94%). • Most would prefer the composting site to be within 1 mile (93%). • Respondents have a high willingness to volunteer at a community composting operation (78%). • 29% of respondents are willing to pay for food scrap pickup, with an average amount willing to pay $6.60 per week. • A majority of respondents would like to deliver food scraps to community composting themselves (53%). • Most would be willing to pay $2-$5 per 5-gallon bucket of finished compost. In evaluating the compost giveaway in the spring of 2020, the survey indicated: • Most participants traveled 1 to 5 miles to pick up compost (56%). • Most participants using compost were experienced gardeners and would have gardened regardless of the availability of the free compost.
