description: The products of magnetic reconnection in Saturn's magnetotail are identified in magnetometer observations primarily through characteristic deviations in the north-south component of the magnetic field. These magnetic deflections are caused by travelling plasma structures created during reconnection rapidly passing over the observing spacecraft. Identification of these signatures have long been performed by eye, and more recently through semi-automated methods, however these methods are often limited through a required human verification step. Here, we present a fully automated, supervised learning, feed forward neural network model to identify evidence of reconnection in the Kronian magnetosphere with the three magnetic field components observed by the Cassini spacecraft in Kronocentric radial-theta-phi (KRTP) coordinates as input. This model is constructed from a catalogue of reconnection events which covers three years of observations with a total of 2093 classified events, categorized into plasmoids, travelling compression regions and dipolarizations. This neural network model is capable of rapidly identifying reconnection events in large time-span Cassini datasets, tested against the full year 2010 with a high level of accuracy (87%), true skill score (0.76), and Heidke skill score (0.73). From this model, a full cataloguing and examination of magnetic reconnection events in the Kronian magnetosphere across Cassini's near Saturn lifetime is now possible.

Evaluation of CIZ1 as a biomarker for neurological tumours
Creators: name: Falkingham, Natasha
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2021

description: Glioblastoma is most common type of brain tumour with an extremely poor prognosis due to lack of effective treatment options. CIZ1, a protein found to be implicated in a range of cancers, has been identified as a potential biomarker. CIZ1 has a role in the replication of DNA and cell cycle control through the coordination of cyclin A and E within the nucleus. This study will evaluate the use of CIZ1 as a biomarker in advanced glioblastoma. Immunohistochemistry showed that CIZ1 expression is increased in 6/6 FFPE tissue sections. In FFPE patient samples CIZ1 is expressed primarily in the cytoplasm, and that its expression can be used to distinguish between normal and tumour cells. In addition, using primary glioblastoma cells (BTNW914) depletion of CIZ1 reduced proliferation, suggesting that CIZ1 may promote tumour growth. Furthermore, preliminary evidence demonstrates that CIZ1 levels can be reduced by inhibition of CDK and DDK inhibitors that reduce CIZ1 levels in vitro. These results suggest that CIZ1 could be a potential useful diagnostic and prognostic biomarker and a target for therapeutic intervention.

description: Scenarios with differently dimensioned charging capacity are examined with regard to the utilization of the flexibility potential of heavy commercial vehicles. These vehicles are only charged at the depot during idle times. The comparison of the scenarios illustrates how strongly the increase in flexibility potential depends on the dimensioning of the charging infrastructure. The lower extreme is determined by the size of the charging time window. If it is fully utilized, no flexibility can be achieved. A brief economic classification of the investment costs for charging infrastructure with the same number of charging points is given. It was shown, that economic obstacles exist for ascending the flexibility potential and incentives are required for counter-financing.
An Algorithm for Recommending Groceries Based on an Item Ranking Method

Subjects: subject: Information Retrieval (cs.IR)

description: This research proposes a new recommender system algorithm for online grocery shopping. The algorithm is based on the perspective that, since the grocery items are usually bought in bulk, a grocery recommender system should be capable of recommending the items in bulk. The algorithm figures out the possible dishes a user may cook based on the items added to the basket and recommends the ingredients accordingly. Our algorithm does not depend on the user ratings. Customers usually do not have the patience to rate the groceries they purchase. Therefore, algorithms that are not dependent on user ratings need to be designed. Instead of using a brute force search, this algorithm limits the search space to a set of only a few probably food categories. Each food category consists of several food subcategories. For example, "fried rice" and "biryani" are food subcategories that belong to the food category "rice". For each food category, items are ranked according to how well they can differentiate a food subcategory. To each food subcategory in the activated search space, this algorithm attaches a score. The score is calculated based on the rank of the items added to the basket. Once the score exceeds a threshold value, its corresponding subcategory gets activated. The algorithm then uses a basket-to-recipe similarity measure to identify the best recipe matches within the activated subcategories only. This reduces the search space to a great extent. We may argue that this algorithm is similar to the content-based recommender system in some sense, but it does not suffer from the limitations like limited content, over-specialization, or the new user problem.

description: Shear-mechanical and dielectric measurements on the two monohydroxy (mono-alcohol) molecular glass formers 2-ethyl-1-hexanol and 2-butanol close to the glass transition temperature are presented. The shear-mechanical data are obtained using the piezoelectric shear-modulus gauge method covering frequencies from 1mHz to 10kHz. The shear-mechanical relaxation spectra show two processes, which follow the typical scenario of a structural (alpha) relaxation and an additional (Johari-Goldstein) beta relaxation. The dielectric relaxation spectra are dominated by a Debye-type peak with an additional non-Debye peak visible. This Debye-type relaxation is a common feature peculiar to mono-alcohols. The time scale of the non-Debye dielectric relaxation process is shown to correspond to the mechanical structural (alpha) relaxation. Glass-transition temperatures and fragilities are reported based on the mechanical alpha relaxation and the dielectric Debye-type process, showing that the two glass-transition temperatures differ by approximately 10K and that the fragility based on the Debye-type process is a factor of two smaller than the structural fragility. If a mechanical signature of the Debye-type relaxation exists in these liquids, its relaxation strength is at most 1% and 3% of the full relaxation strength of 2-butanol and 2-ethyl-1-hexanol respectively. These findings support the notion that it is the non-Debye dielectric relaxation process that corresponds to the structural alpha relaxation in the liquid.

description: We use the Atiyah-Singer index theorem to derive the general form of the one-loop corrections to observables in asymptotically anti-de Sitter (AdS$_4$) supersymmetric backgrounds of abelian gauged supergravity. Using the method of supergravity localization combined with the factorization of the supergravity action on fixed points (NUTs) and fixed two-manifolds (Bolts) we show that an analogous factorization takes place for the one-loop determinants of supergravity fields. This allows us to propose a general fixed-point formula for the logarithmic corrections to a large class of supersymmetric partition functions in the large $N$ expansion of a given 3d dual theory. The corrections are uniquely fixed by some simple topological data pertaining to a particular background in the form of its regularized Euler characteristic $χ$, together with a single dynamical coefficient that counts the underlying degrees of freedom of the theory.

Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: Earth and Planetary Astrophysics (astro-ph.EP)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: In this work, retrograde mean motion resonances (MMRs) are investigated by means of analytical and numerical approaches. Initially, we define a new resonant angle to describe the retrograde MMRs and then perform a series of canonical transformations to formulate the resonant model, in which the phase portrait, resonant centre and resonant width can be analytically determined. To validate the analytical developments, the non-perturbative analysis is made by taking advantage of Poincaré surfaces of section. Some modifications are introduced in the production of Poincaré sections and, in particular, it becomes possible to make direct comparisons between the analytical and numerical results. It is found that there exists an excellent correspondence between the phase portraits and the associated Poincaré sections, and the analytical results agree well with the numerical results in terms of the resonant width and the location of resonant centre. Finally, the numerical approach is utilized to determine the resonant widths and resonant centres over the full range of eccentricity. In particular, seven known examples of retrograde asteroids including 2015 BZ509, 2008 SO218, 1999 LE31, 2000 DG8, 2014 AT28, 2016 LS and 2016 JK24 are found inside the libration zones of retrograde MMRs with Jupiter. The results obtained in this work may be helpful for understanding the dynamical evolution for asteroids inside retrograde MMRs.

description: HH 175 is an isolated Herbig-Haro object seen towards the B35 cloud in the lambda Ori region. We use deep Subaru 8m interference filter images and Spitzer images to show that HH 175 is a terminal shock in a large collimated outflow from the nearby embedded source IRAS 05417+0907. The body of the eastern outflow lobe is hidden by a dense ridge of gas. The western outflow breaks out of the front of the cometary-shaped B35 cloud, carrying cloud fragments along, which are optically visible due to photoionization by the massive lambda Ori stars. The total extent of the bipolar outflow is 13.7 arcmin, which at the adopted distance of 415 pc corresponds to a projected dimension of 1.65 pc. The embedded source IRAS 05417+0907 is located on the flow axis approximately midway between the two lobes, and near-infrared images show it to be a multiple system of 6 sources, with a total luminosity of 31 Lsun. Millimeter maps in CO, 13CO, and C18O show that the B35 cloud is highly structured with multiple cores, of which the one that spawned IRAS 05417+0907 is located at the apex of B35. It is likely that the embedded source is the result of compression by an ionization-shock front driven by the lambda Ori OB stars.

A shoreline prediction model
Creators: name: Har, Boon Cher
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: A numerical model is developed to predict shoreline changes as a function of deep water wave conditions and nearshore bathymetry. The model consists of three components, the wave refraction and shoaling component, the longshore transport component, and the on-offshore component. The refraction and shoaling component is based on the irrotationality of the wave number K, and the conservation of energy equations suggested by Noda (1974), while the longshore transport component is based on the CERC longshore transport equation. A finite difference scheme is adopted to solve both the wave refraction and the longshore transport governing equations. The third component, the on-offshore transport (beach profile change) component is based on a set of equations developed from some of the known aspects of behaviour observed by other investigators. It is also based on the results obtained from a set of experiments conducted on equilibrium profile changes, and on a proposed criteria for on or offshore sediment motion. The model is used to simulate the shoreline changes due to a littoral barrier orientated normally to the shoreline, and to predict the changes of a beach nourishment plan. Results of these simulations show that, in addition to the longshore transport influences, the on-offshore beach modification has a large influence on shoreline retreat under more severe wave attack.
Seed dormancy breaking of temperate region deciduous tree species
Creators: name: Kidd, Mark
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2021

description: Tree seeds often exhibit dormancy and require several months of moist chilling (cold stratification) before germination can proceed. Seed dormancy is poorly understood with no clear identified mechanism as to why cold stratification works. Endogenous plant hormones and chemicals have been implicated in this process. The requirement for a lengthy cold stratification period (often 2-4 months) limits the popularity of growing trees from seed in the amateur gardening market and reduces productivity for professional tree growers. A treatment product or protocol which breaks dormancy would address these issues. We have been able to define the seed dormancy status of a range of temperate region tree species. The deeply physiologically dormant seeds of Acer tataricum (tartar maple) were chosen as a test seed species. It was determined that water and oxygen permeability of the seed coats were not a major factor in maintaining dormancy in this seed. Nor was the oxygen concentration that the seed was incubated in. There was also no indication of inhibitory substances (to germination of lettuce seeds) within the seed. The testa of A. tataricum was found to weaken over time after imbibition in both cold and warm conditions and it's physical restriction of the embryo is likely to be a secondary factor in prolonging dormancy. It was found that cytokinins can break the dormancy of A. tataricum. A treatment for breaking the dormancy in temperate region tree seeds is proposed using a 350 mg/l kinetin/20% dimethylsulphoxide solution. This treatment successfully removed the dormancy and substituted for up to 3 months of cold stratification in these species in Acer platanoides (Norway Maple 'Crimson King') and Tilia cordata (Small-leaved Lime). It also increased the germination percentage of Acer pseudoplatanus (Sycamore). Possible mechanisms of how cold stratification breaks dormancy in relation to this finding are discussed. Other species and varieties of dormant seed respond to other plant hormones such as A. platanoides to jasmonic acid. Future areas of study in order to understand the mechanism of dormancy release are suggested along with further ideas to develop a dormancy breaking seed treatment.

description: The past decade has seen a proliferation of topological materials for both insulators and semimetals in electronic systems and classical waves. Topological semimetals exhibit topologically protected band degeneracies, such as nodal points and nodal lines. Dirac nodal line semimetals (DNLS), which own four-fold line degeneracy, have drawn particular attention. DNLSs have been studied in electronic systems but there is no photonic DNLS. Here in this work, we provide a new mechanism which is unique for photonic systems to investigate a stringent photonic DNLS. When truncated, the photonic DNLS exhibits double-bowl states (DBS), which comprises two sets of perpendicularly polarized surface states. In sharp contrast to nondegenerate surface states in other photonic systems, here the two sets of surface states are almost degenerate over the whole spectrum range. The DBS and the bulk Dirac nodal ring (DNR) dispersion along the relevant directions, are experimentally resolved.

description: Rich functionalities of transition-metal oxides and their interfaces bear an enormous technological potential. Its realization in practical devices requires, however, a significant improvement of yet relatively low electron mobility in oxide materials. Recently, a mobility boost of about two orders of magnitude has been demonstrated at the spinel/perovskite γ-Al2O3/SrTiO3 interface compared to the paradigm perovskite/perovskite LaAlO3/SrTiO3. We explore the fundamental physics behind this phenomenon from direct measurements of the momentum-resolved electronic structure of this interface using resonant soft-X-ray angle-resolved photoemission. We find an anomaly in orbital ordering of the mobile electrons in γ-Al2O3/SrTiO3 which depopulates electron states in the top STO layer. This rearrangement of the mobile electron system pushes the electron density away from the interface that reduces its overlap with the interfacial defects and weakens the electron-phonon interaction, both effects contributing to the mobility boost. A crystal-field analysis shows that the band order alters owing to the symmetry breaking between the spinel γ-Al2O3 and perovskite SrTiO3. The band-order engineering exploiting the fundamental symmetry properties emerges as another route to boost the performance of oxide devices.
Jamming II: Edwards' statistical mechanics of random packings of hard spheres

description: The problem of finding the most efficient way to pack spheres has an illustrious history, dating back to the crystalline arrays conjectured by Kepler and the random geometries explored by Bernal in the 60's. This problem finds applications spanning from the mathematician's pencil, the processing of granular materials, the jamming and glass transitions, all the way to fruit packing in every grocery. There are presently numerous experiments showing that the loosest way to pack spheres gives a density of ~55% (RLP) while filling all the loose voids results in a maximum density of ~63-64% (RCP). While those values seem robustly true, to this date there is no physical explanation or theoretical prediction for them. Here we show that random packings of monodisperse hard spheres in 3d can pack between the densities 4/(4 + 2 \sqrt 3) or 53.6% and 6/(6 + 2 \sqrt 3) or 63.4%, defining RLP and RCP, respectively. The reason for these limits arises from a statistical picture of jammed states in which the RCP can be interpreted as the ground state of the ensemble of jammed matter with zero compactivity, while the RLP arises in the infinite compactivity limit. We combine an extended statistical mechanics approach 'a la Edwards' (where the role traditionally played by the energy and temperature in thermal systems is substituted by the volume and compactivity) with a constraint on mechanical stability imposed by the isostatic condition. Ultimately, our results lead to a phase diagram that provides a unifying view of the disordered hard sphere packing problem.

description: Dust grains play an important role in the synthesis of molecules in the interstellar medium, from the simplest species to complex organic molecules. How some of these solid-state molecules are converted into gas-phase species is still a matter of debate. Our aim is to directly compare ice and gas abundances of methanol (CH$_3$OH) and CO, and to investigate the relationship between ice and gas in low-mass protostellar envelopes. We present Submillimeter Array and Atacama Pathfinder EXperiment observations of gas-phase CH$_3$OH and CO towards the multiple protostellar system IRAS05417+0907 located in the B35A cloud. We use archival AKARI ice data toward the same target to calculate CH$_3$OH and CO gas-to-ice ratios. The CO isotopologues emissions are extended, whereas the CH$_3$OH emission is compact and traces the giant outflow emanating from IRAS05417+0907. A discrepancy between submillimeter dust emission and H$_2$O ice column density is found for B35A$-$4 and B35A$-$5, similar to what has previously been reported. B35A$-$2 and B35A$-$3 are located where the submillimeter dust emission peaks and show H$_2$O column densities lower than for B35A$-$4. The difference between the submillimeter continuum emission and the infrared H$_2$O ice observations suggests that the distributions of dust and H$_2$O ice differ around the young stellar objects in this dense cloud. The reason for this may be that the sources are located in different environments resolved by the interferometric observations: B35A$-$2, B35A$-$3 and in particular B35A$-$5 are situated in a shocked region plausibly affected by sputtering and heating impacting the submillimeter dust emission pattern, while B35A$-$4 is situated in a more quiescent part of the cloud. Gas and ice maps are essential to connect small-scale variations in the ice composition with large-scale astrophysical phenomena probed by gas observations.

description: The flat FRW model coupled to the massless scalar field according to the improved, background scale independent version of Ashtekar, Pawlowski and Singh is considered. The core of the theory is addressed directly: the APS construction of the quantum Hamiltonian is analyzed under the assumption that cosmological constant $Λ\le 0$. We prove the essential self-adjointness of the operator whose square-root defines the quantum Hamiltonian operator and therefore, provide the explicit definition. If $Λ<0$, then the spectrum is discrete. In the $Λ=0$ case, the essential and absolutely continues spectra of the operator are derived. The latter operator is related in the unitary way to the absolutely continuous part of the Quantum Mechanics operator $a(-\frac{\partial^2}{\partial y^2} - \frac{b}{{\rm cosh}^2\hat{y}})$ ($a,b>0$ being some constants) plus a trace class operator.

description: We investigate the existence of random close and random loose packing limits in two-dimensional packings of monodisperse hard disks. A statistical mechanics approach-- based on several approximations to predict the probability distribution of volumes-- suggests the existence of the limiting densities of the jammed packings according to their coordination number and compactivity. This result has implications for the understanding of disordered states in the disk packing problem as well as the existence of a putative glass transition in two dimensional systems.

description: The direct current (d.c.) conductivity and emergent functionalities at ferroelectric domain walls are closely linked to the local polarization charges. Depending on the charge state, the walls can exhibit unusual d.c. conduction ranging from insulating to metallic-like, which is leveraged in domain-wall-based memory, multi-level data storage, and synaptic devices. In contrast to the functional d.c. behaviors at charged walls, their response to alternating currents (a.c.) remains to be resolved. Here, we reveal a.c. characteristics at positively and negatively charged walls in ErMnO3, distinctly different from the response of the surrounding domains. By combining voltage-dependent spectroscopic measurements on macroscopic and local scales, we demonstrate a pronounced non-linear response at the electrode-wall junction, which correlates with the domain-wall charge state. The dependence on the a.c. drive voltage enables reversible switching between uni- and bipolar output signals, providing conceptually new opportunities for the application of charged walls as functional nanoelements in a.c. circuitry.

description: In this paper we present two original methods for recognizing textual inference. First one is a modified resolution method such that some linguistic considerations are introduced in the unification of two atoms. The approach is possible due to the recent methods of transforming texts in logic formulas. Second one is based on semantic relations in text, as presented in WordNet. Some similarities between these two methods are remarked.

Pseudo non-linear seismic analysis

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: A method of evaluating the damage pattern and deflections of planar structures under earthquake excitation is presented. The proposed method is an iterative procedure based on ordinary elastic modal analysis, but it is extended to the inelastic range by using a special technique to take into account the reduction in effective stiffness and the variation in damping. The theoretical development of the method is reviewed in this study and some improvements are also made. These new developments are then incorporated in an existing computer program for the method and tested with different kinds of idealized structures. Test results show good agreement with results obtained from a time-step analysis program DRAIN-2D, provided that the fundamental response period of the structure does not oscillate near the steep descending branch of the smooth spectrum and no extensive yielding occurs in the columns. The proposed method is less expensive than an inelastic time-step analysis and can produce far more superior results than the elastic modal analysis; therefore it is considered as a good alternative to the two conventional types of analysis.

description: Artificial magnetic molecules can contribute to progressing towards large scale quantum computation by: a) integrating multiple quantum resources and b) reducing the computational costs of some applications. Chemical design, guided by theoretical proposals, allows embedding nontrivial quantum functionalities in each molecular unit, which then acts as a microscopic quantum processor able to encode error protected logical qubits or to implement quantum simulations. Scaling up even further requires 'wiring-up' multiple molecules. We discuss how to achieve this goal by the coupling to on-chip superconducting resonators. The potential advantages of this hybrid approach and the challenges that still lay ahead are critically reviewed.

description: Magnetoresistance oscillations in two-dimensional electron systems driven simultaneously by a strong direct current and a microwave irradiation, are analyzed within a unified microscopic scheme treating both excitations on an equal footing. The microwave-induced resistance oscillations are described by a parameter $ε_ω$ proportional to the radiation frequency, while the dc-induced resistance oscillations are governed by a parameter $ε_j$ proportional to the current density. In the presence of both a microwave radiation and a strong dc, the combined parameter $ε_ω+ε_j$ is shown to control the main resistance oscillations, in agreement with the recent measurement [Zhang {\it et al.} Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 98}, 106804 (2007)]

title: Relative sea level, sediment supply and barrier dynamics as driving mechanisms of Holocene coastal change.

description: The combined effects of climate change and population pressure lead to regional and local coastal responses that pose major challenges for the future resilience of coastal landscapes, increasing the vulnerability of communities, infrastructure and nature conservation interests. Improving understanding of coastline evolution in the past, using the Holocene record of geomorphological change preserved within coastal stratigraphy, is one way to improving understanding of coastal evolution and coastal response to climate and geomorphic change. This thesis aims to improve understanding of long-term coastal system behaviour by investigating the role of relative sea level, sediment supply and barrier dynamics as driving mechanisms of Holocene coastal change. The Suffolk coast, an understudied and vulnerable section of coastline in southeast England, is used as a case study to improve understanding of the mechanisms driving Holocene coastal change. Stratigraphic investigation demonstrated significant spatial and temporal differences in sedimentation. A multiproxy approach, comprising lithostratigraphic, sedimentological, bio- and chronostratigraphic methods, identified and constrained the timing of major phases of coastal change. New sea-level index points (11 intercalated peat and 6 basal peat samples) constrain the position of relative sea level during the Holocene and support the gradual rise reconstructed by the existing data for southeast England. Changes in sea-level tendency during the mid-Holocene are consistent on the Suffolk coast and wider East Anglia region, with predominantly positive (increase in marine influence) changes recorded, indicating that coastal sedimentation was controlled predominantly by relative sea level. In contrast, changes in sea-level tendency during the late Holocene varied substantially, indicating that local factors, notably sediment supply and barrier dynamics, were the main influences on coastal sedimentation, with relative sea level acting only as a background control. The importance of sedimentological and morphological factors in shaping Holocene coastal changes requires consideration when using the southern North Sea basin database of evidence as an analogue for future change under accelerated sea-level rise.
