description: From an analysis of almost 2000 GALEX images of galaxies with morphological types ranging from E to Sab, we have found a significant subset (28%) that show UV emission outside $R_{25}$. We have obtained H$α$ imaging of ten such galaxies, and find that their star formation rates are similar in the UV and in H$α$, with values ranging from a few tenths to a few $M_{\odot} $ yr$ ^{-1} $. Probably because our sample selection is biased towards star-forming galaxies, these rates are comparable to those found in disk galaxies, although the star formation rates of the elliptical galaxies in our sample are well below $1\,M_{\odot} $ yr$ ^{-1}$. We confirm that the extended UV emission in our sample is caused by massive star formation in outer spiral arms and/or outer (pseudo) rings, rather than by alternative mechanisms such as the UV upturn.

description: We present a novel algorithm and validation method for disambiguating author names in very large bibliographic data sets and apply it to the full Web of Science (WoS) citation index. Our algorithm relies only upon the author and citation graphs available for the whole period covered by the WoS. A pair-wise publication similarity metric, which is based on common co-authors, self-citations, shared references and citations, is established to perform a two-step agglomerative clustering that first connects individual papers and then merges similar clusters. This parameterized model is optimized using an h-index based recall measure, favoring the correct assignment of well-cited publications, and a name-initials-based precision using WoS metadata and cross-referenced Google Scholar profiles. Despite the use of limited metadata, we reach a recall of 87% and a precision of 88% with a preference for researchers with high h-index values. 47 million articles of WoS can be disambiguated on a single machine in less than a day. We develop an h-index distribution model, confirming that the prediction is in excellent agreement with the empirical data, and yielding insight into the utility of the h-index in real academic ranking scenarios.

description: Autoimmune diabetes is a consequence of immune-cell infiltration and destruction of pancreatic β-cells in the islets of Langerhans. We analyzed the cellular composition of the insulitic lesions in the autoimmune-prone non-obese diabetic (NOD) mouse and observed a peak in recruitment of plasmacytoid dendritic cells (pDCs) to NOD islets around 8–9 weeks of age. This peak coincides with increased spontaneous expression of type-1-IFN response genes and CpG1585 induced production of IFN-α from NOD islets. The transcription factor E2-2 is specifically required for the maturation of pDCs, and we show that knocking out E2-2 conditionally in CD11c+ cells leads to a reduced recruitment of pDCs to pancreatic islets and reduced CpG1585 induced production of IFN-α during insulitis. As a consequence, insulitis has a less aggressive expression profile of the Th1 cytokine IFN-γ and a markedly reduced diabetes incidence. Collectively, these observations demonstrate a disease-promoting role of E2-2 dependent pDCs in the pancreas during autoimmune diabetes in the NOD mouse.

description: Recently, \citet{Nicholls12}, inspired by \emph{in situ} observations of solar system astrophysical plasmas, suggested that the electrons in \HII regions are characterised by a $κ$-distribution of electron energies rather than by a simple Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution. Here we have collected together the new atomic data within a modified photoionisation code to explore the effects of both the new atomic data and the $κ$-distribution on the strong-line techniques used to determine chemical abundances in \HII regions. By comparing the recombination temperatures ($T_{\rm rec}$) with the forbidden line temperatures ($T_{\rm FL}$) we conclude that $ κ\sim 20$. While representing only a mild deviation from equilibrium, this is sufficient to strongly influence abundances determined using methods which depend on measurements of the electron temperature from forbidden lines. We present a number of new emission line ratio diagnostics which cleanly separate the two parameters determining the optical spectrum of \HII regions - the ionisation parameter $q$ or $\cal{U}$ and the chemical abundance; 12+log(O/H). An automated code to extract these parameters is presented. Using the homogeneous dataset from \citet{vanZee98}, we find self-consistent results between all these different diagnostics. The systematic errors between different line ratio diagnostics are much smaller than was found in the earlier strong line work. Overall the effect of the $κ$-distribution on the strong line abundances derived solely on the basis of theoretical models is rather small.

description: In BALB/c mice, successful defense against visceral leishmaniasis is T cell dependent, expressed by tissue granuloma formation, and probably mediated by macrophages activated by cytokines, including gamma interferon (IFN-gamma). C57BL/6 ep/ep (pale ear) mice, which reportedly exhibit impaired IFN-gamma production, were challenged with Leishmania donovani to determine the outcome of infection in a euthymic host with an apparent defect in lymphokine secretion. In BALB/c and normal C57BL/6 mice, L. donovani liver burdens peaked at 2 weeks and were largely eliminated by 4 weeks. In contrast, in pale ear mice, infection progressed until after 4 weeks and persisted at high levels at 8 weeks. The failure to resolve hepatic infections was not related to deficiencies in (i) Thy-1+, L3T4+, or Lyt-2+ T cells; (ii) IFN-gamma secretion; (iii) liver tissue Ia expression; (iv) macrophage antimicrobial capacity; or (v) antileishmanial antibody production. However, despite the anticipated influx of mononuclear cells into livers, these cells were not properly focused on the parasitized Kupffer cells, the inflammatory infiltrate receded prematurely, and mature granulomas failed to develop. These results suggest that there is a cellular immune defect at the tissue level and emphasize the critical role of granuloma formation in successful resolution of systemic intracellular infections.

description: We calculate the dynamical structure factor S(q, ω) of a weakly interacting helical edge state in the presence of a magnetic field B. The latter opens a gap of width 2B in the single-particle spectrum, which becomes strongly nonlinear near the Dirac point. For chemical potentials |μ| > B, the system then behaves as a nonlinear helical Luttinger liquid, and a mobile-impurity analysis reveals interaction-dependent power-law singularities in S(q,ω). For |μ| < B, the low-energy excitations are gapped, and we determine S(q,ω) by using an analogy to exciton physics.

Leukocyte subpopulations elicited by a nontumorigenic variant of B16 melanoma: their role in direct rejection of the melanoma and in prevention of tumorigenesis in Winn assays

description: The mechanisms by which various leukocyte subpopulations elicited by an immunogenic, nontumorigenic subclone (C3471) of B16 melanoma caused rejection of the tumorigenic parental melanoma (B559), were investigated. Leukocytes from C3471-immune mice were co-injected with B559 tumor cells in Winn assays into normal syngeneic recipients. Tumor formation by B559 cells was prevented when C3471-immune (a) unfractionated peritoneal leukocytes, or (b) glass-adherent peritoneal cells (90% macrophages), or (c) nylon wool purified nonadherent cells (95% Thy-1.2+) were used in the Winn assays. If the C3471-immunized mice were treated with antithymocyte serum before harvest of their peritoneal cells, none of these leukocyte populations were effective in the Winn assay. However, macrophages from these immunologically compromised donors regained their tumoricidal activity after incubation in vitro with T lymphocytes from untreated C3471-immune donors; similarly, C3471-immune lymphocytes rendered normal resident peritoneal macrophages tumoricidal in Winn assays. When C3471-immunized mice were irradiated or treated with antithymocyte serum before direct challenge with B559 cells, melanomas developed, thus providing additional evidence for the need for intact T cell function to establish immunity against the melanoma. Furthermore, when Winn assay recipients were treated with antithymocyte serum, neither C3471-immune macrophages nor T cells were able to prevent tumor formation. These findings indicate that antithymocyte serum-sensitive (Thy-1.2+) lymphocytes are necessary both for the generation of tumoricidal leukocytes in C3471-immunized mice, and for the rejection of B559 melanoma by demonstrably tumoricidal macrophages in Winn assay recipients. In addition, long-lasting immunity developed in 50% of the normal mice that had received both C3471-immune peritoneal cells and B559 tumor cells, as manifested by their capacity to reject a second challenge with B559 cells 40-60 d later.

description: Zero coupon bonds are issued at a deep discount and repaid the face value at maturity. The greater the length of the maturity is the cheaper price a bond has. Unlike other bonds, the investor’s return is the difference between the purchase price and the face value. An investor preferring a long-term investment may purchase zero coupon bonds such as saving money for children’s college tuition. The deep discount helps the investor grow a small amount of money into a sizable sum over several years. Normally investors buy zero coupon bonds when interest rates are high. This presentation gives an overview of zero coupon bond product and valuation.

Tumor-promoting phorbol esters stimulate C3b and C3b' receptor-mediated phagocytosis in cultured human monocytes

description: Monocytes were isolated in high yield (approximately 80%) and purity (greater than 90%) by Percoll gradient centrifugation and incubated in Teflon culture vessels. Using this culture method, we routinely recovered 80% of the cells originally placed into culture. Studies of the C3b and C3b' receptors of these monocytes showed that the function of both receptors could be dramatically altered by treating the cells with tumor-promoting phorbol esters. Both C3b and C3b' receptors of human monocytes efficiently mediate attachment of erythrocytes coated with the corresponding ligands, but do not promote their ingestion. However, monocytes treated with phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) or phorbol didecanoate ingest C3b- and C3b'-coated erythrocytes. Phorbol esters that are inactive as tumor promoters do not stimulate C3 receptor-mediated phagocytosis. The ability of monocytes to respond to PMA by activation of C3 receptors is developmentally regulated. Freshly isolated monocytes do not take up C3b- or C3b'-coated erythrocytes in response to PMA, but after 3 d of culture they show strong PMA-stimulated uptake. The stimulatory effect of PMA on monocyte C3b and C3b' receptor function occurs within minutes, is stable for hours, is cycloheximide insensitive, and can be inhibited with colchicine. Several lines of evidence indicates that phagocytosis of C3b or C3b'-coated erythrocytes is specifically mediated by the monocytes' C3b and C3b' receptors. First, erythrocytes attached to monocytes with concanavalin A are not ingested when the monocytes are treated with PMA. Second, monocytes plated on IgG-bearing substrates lose Fc receptor activity on their nonadherent surfaces but retain the capacity to ingest C3b- or C3b'-coated erythrocytes after PMA treatment. Third, PMA-treated monocytes plated on C3b-coated surfaces lose C3b receptor activity on their nonadherent surfaces but retain the capacity to ingest C3b'-coated erythrocytes. Conversely, PMA-treated monocytes plated on C3b'-coated surfaces show reduced C3b' receptors activity on their nonadherent surfaces but retain the capacity to ingest C3b-coated erythrocytes.

description: Connes' notion of non-commutative geometry (NCG) generalizes Riemannian geometry and yields a striking reinterepretation of the standard model of particle physics, coupled to Einstein gravity. We suggest a simple reformulation with two key mathematical advantages: (i) it unifies many of the traditional NCG axioms into a single one; and (ii) it immediately generalizes from non-commutative to non-associative geometry. Remarkably, it also resolves a long-standing problem plaguing the NCG construction of the standard model, by precisely eliminating from the action the collection of 7 unwanted terms that previously had to be removed by an extra, non-geometric, assumption. With this problem solved, the NCG algorithm for constructing the standard model action is tighter and more explanatory than the traditional one based on effective field theory.

description: We have reported previously that in the presence of an osmotic gradient, facilitative glucose transporters (GLUTs) act as a transmembrane pathway for water flow. Here, we find evidence that they also allow water passage in the absence of an osmotic gradient. We applied the linear diffusion technique to measure the diffusional permeability (Pd) of tritiated water (3H-H2O) through plasma membranes of J774 murine macrophage-like cells. Untreated cells had a Pd of 30.9 +/- 1.8 microns/s; the inhibitors of facilitative glucose transport cytochalasin B (10 microM) and phloretin (20 microM) reduced that value to 15.3 +/- 1.8 (50%) and 11.0 +/- 0.7 (62%) microns/s, respectively. In contrast, no significant effect on Pd was observed in cells treated with dihydrocytochalasin B (Pd = 28.4 +/- 1.5 microns/s). PCMBS (3 mM) inhibited glucose uptake by greater than 95%, and 3H-H2O diffusion by approximately 30% (Pd = 22.9 +/- 1.5 microns/s). The combination of cytochalasin B plus pCMBS reduced Pd by about 87% (Pd = 3.9 +/- 0.3 microns/s). Moreover, 1 mM pCMBS did not affect the osmotic water permeability in Xenopus laevis oocytes expressing the brain/erythroid form of facilitative glucose transporters (GLUT1). These results indicate for the first time that about half of the total Pd of J774 cells may be accounted for by water passage across GLUTs. Hence, they highlight the multifunctional properties of these transporters serving as conduits for both water and glucose. Our results also suggest for the first time that pCMBS blocks glucose transport without affecting water permeation through GLUTs. Lastly, because pCMBS decreases the Pd of J774 cells, this suggests the presence in their plasma membranes of another protein(s) exhibiting water channel properties.

description: Today we have access to unprecedented amounts of literary texts. However, search still relies heavily on key words. In this paper, we show how sentiment analysis can be used in tandem with effective visualizations to quantify and track emotions in both individual books and across very large collections. We introduce the concept of emotion word density, and using the Brothers Grimm fairy tales as example, we show how collections of text can be organized for better search. Using the Google Books Corpus we show how to determine an entity's emotion associations from co-occurring words. Finally, we compare emotion words in fairy tales and novels, to show that fairy tales have a much wider range of emotion word densities than novels.

GRB 100418a was a peculiar GRB with unusual X-ray and optical afterglow profiles featuring a plateau phase with a very shallow rise. This observed plateau phase was believed to be due to a continued energy injection mechanism which powered the forward shock, giving rise to an unusual and long-lasting afterglow. The radio afterglow of GRB 100418a was detectable several weeks after the prompt emission. We conducted long-term monitoring observations of the afterglow and attempted to test the energy injection model advocating that the continuous energy injection is due to shells of material moving at a wide range of Lorentz factors. We obtained an upper limit of $γ$ $

description: Antiretroviral (ARV) drug use was analyzed in HIV-uninfected women in an observational cohort study conducted in 10 urban and periurban communities in the United States with high rates of poverty and HIV infection. Plasma samples collected in 2009–2010 were tested for the presence of 16 ARV drugs. ARV drugs were detected in samples from 39 (2%) of 1,806 participants: 27/181 (15%) in Baltimore, MD and 12/179 (7%) in Bronx, NY. The ARV drugs detected included different combinations of non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitors and protease inhibitors (1–4 drugs/sample). These data were analyzed in the context of self-reported data on ARV drug use. None of the 39 women who had ARV drugs detected reported ARV drug use at any study visit. Further research is needed to evaluate ARV drug use by HIV-uninfected individuals.

description: Recent experiments on current-induced domain wall motion in chiral magnets suggest important contributions both from spin-orbit torques (SOTs) and from the Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI). We derive a Berry phase expression for the DMI and show that within this Berry phase theory DMI and SOTs are intimately related, in a way formally analogous to the relation between orbital magnetization (OM) and anomalous Hall effect (AHE). We introduce the concept of the \textit{twist torque moment}, which probes the internal twist of wave packets in chiral magnets in a similar way like the orbital moment probes the wave packet's internal self rotation. We propose to interpret the Berry phase theory of DMI as a theory of \textit{spiralization} in analogy to the modern theory of OM. We show that the twist torque moment and the spiralization together give rise to a Berry phase governing the response of the SOT to thermal gradients, in analogy to the intrinsic anomalous Nernst effect. The Berry phase theory of DMI is computationally very efficient because it only needs the electronic structure of the collinear magnetic system as input. As an application of the formalism we compute the DMI in Pt/Co, Pt/Co/O and Pt/Co/Al magnetic trilayers and show that the DMI is highly anisotropic in these systems.

description: Preparatory work for a pupils’ self-report-instrument on positioning towards lessons’ content-based requirements: Item collection for validation and construction of a questionnaire Version 1.0 11 October 2022 Raphael Koßmann https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6746-9407 This item collection was generated after a preliminary study on how pupils deal with content-based requirements in the classroom. Pupils with and without special educational needs in learning from inclusive secondary classes were interviewed. Among other things, they were questioned about what and how they had learned in previous lessons. Using a mixed-methods approach, 20 interviews were analysed. Preliminary results were presented at EARLI-SIG 10, 21 & 25 on 8 September 2022 (Koßmann, 2022). A research report on this study, in which related theories, analysis methods and results will be described in detail, is in preparation. The items collected in the document offered here, Version 1.0, are already arranged according to different categories. However, the collection is preliminary. Further research must show to what extent it is complete and what value the items have individually and in context.

description: A new notion of typicality for arbitrary probability measures on standard Borel spaces is proposed, which encompasses the classical notions of weak and strong typicality as special cases. Useful lemmas about strong typical sets, including conditional typicality lemma, joint typicality lemma, and packing and covering lemmas, which are fundamental tools for deriving many inner bounds of various multi-terminal coding problems, are obtained in terms of the proposed notion. This enables us to directly generalize lots of results on finite alphabet problems to general problems involving abstract alphabets, without any complicated additional arguments. For instance, quantization procedure is no longer necessary to achieve such generalizations. Another fundamental lemma, Markov lemma, is also obtained but its scope of application is quite limited compared to others. Yet, an alternative theory of typical sets for Gaussian measures, free from this limitation, is also developed. Some remarks on a possibility to generalize the proposed notion for sources with memory are also given.

description: We have measured the release of H2O2 from granulocytes, monocytes, and macrophages during spreading on ligand-coated culture surfaces. While IgG-coated surfaces stimulate vigorous release of H2O2, neither C3b- nor C3bi-coated surfaces promoted appreciable release of H2O2 despite full ligation of C3b and C3bi receptors. We also measured release of H2O2 from cultured monocytes spreading on surfaces coated with both fibronectin and C3. Under such circumstances, the C3 receptors elicit a strong phagocytic response, but no H2O2 release was recorded. We conclude that the C3b and C3bi receptors of monocytes and granulocytes do not signal the generation of toxic oxygen intermediates from these cells.

Fibronectin and serum amyloid P component stimulate C3b- and C3bi-mediated phagocytosis in cultured human monocytes

description: Fibronectin (FN) and serum amyloid P component (SAP) markedly enhance phagocytosis mediated by the C3b and C3bi receptors of cultured human monocytes but not of granulocytes. (The C3b and C3bi receptors of granulocytes can be activated by treatment of these phagocytes with PMA.) Activation of monocyte C3 receptors by FN is developmentally regulated: Freshly explanted monocytes respond to FN with a small increase in C3 receptor-mediated phagocytosis while monocytes matured in culture exhibit a much greater response. The mechanism of action of FN on C3 receptors of cultured monocytes is unique in two respects. First, while substrate-bound FN or SAP activate monocyte C3 receptors, soluble FN does not. Second, stimulation of the basal surface of monocyte plasma membranes by substrate-bound FN activates C3b and C3bi receptors on the apical surface of the plasma membrane, i.e., at sites remote from the segments of membrane in contact with the FN or SAP.

description: Squeezed supersymmetric spectra are challenging for the LHC searches based on a sizable missing energy and hard visible particles. One such scenario consists of chargino/second-lightest neutralino NLSPs and a lightest neutralino LSP with a relatively small mass gap (10-50GeV). In this note, we explore search strategies to better probe this parameter space. We focus on the three-lepton plus missing energy channel arising from the chargino/second-lightest neutralino associated production, and we investigate the role of a relatively hard initial state radiation (ISR) jet. In addition to typical kinematic variables, such as the minimum lepton pair invariant mass, we propose an angular separation variable and two ratio variables which capitalize on the main kinematic features; leptons stay relatively soft under the boost from ISR and a sizable missing energy arises only in tight correlation with the ISR boost. With 300/fb of data at the 14 TeV LHC, we expect to probe electroweakinos up to 320 (700) GeV with 30GeV mass-gap and up to 220 (620) GeV with 20GeV mass-gap if gauginos decay via gauge bosons (light sleptons). We emphasize that the three-lepton channel is technically challenging for mass-gap below 12GeV.

Phorbol myristate acetate stimulates microtubule and 10-nm filament extension and lysosome redistribution in mouse macrophages

description: Phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) stimulates cell spreading and fluid-phase pinocytosis in mouse peritoneal macrophages. Colchicine (10(-5) M) and cytochalasin B (10(-5) M) abolish PMA stimulated pinocytosis but have little effect on cellular spreading (Phaire-Washington et al., 1980, J. Cell Biol., 86:634-640). We report here that PMA also alters the organization of the cytoskeleton and the distrubution of organelles in these cells. Neither control nor PMA-treated macrophages contain actin cables. PMA-treated resident thioglycolate-elicited macrophages exhibit beneath their substrate-adherent membranes many randomly distributed punctate foci that stain brightly for actin. The appearance and distribution of these actin-containing foci are not altered by colchicine (10(-5) M) or cytochalasin B (10(-5) M). In thioglycolate-elicited macrophages PMA causes the extension and radial organization of microtubules and 10-nm filaments and promotes the movement of secondary lysosomes from their perinuclear location to the peripheral cytoplasm. Depending upon the concentration of PMA used, 45-71% of thioglycolate-elicited macrophages and 32-44% of proteose-peptone-elicited macrophages and numerous lysosomes, radiating from the centrosphere region, arranged linearly along microtubule and 10-nm filament bundles. Colchicine (10(-5) M) and podophyllotoxin (10(-5) M) prevent the radial redistribution of microtubules, 10-nm filaments, and lysosomes in these cells. Cytochalasins B and D (10(-5) M) have no inhibitory effects on these processes. These findings indicate that microtubules and 10-nm filaments respond in a coordinated fashion to PMA and to agents that inhibit microtubule function; they suggest that these cytoskeletal elements regulate the movement and distribution of lysosomes in the macrophage cytoplasm.

description: Phorbol myristate acetate (PMA) at a concentration of 0.01 microgram/ml causes an approximately threefold increase in surface area of resident, proteose-peptone-elicited, and thioglycolate-broth-elicited mouse peritoneal macrophages. Resident and proteose-peptone-elicited macrophages, cultured for 24 h in the presence of PMA, increase their pinocytic rate twofold in response to addition of PMA (0.01 microgram/ml) to the medium. Thioglycolate-broth-elicited macrophages, cultured for 24 h in the absence of PMA, immediately increase their pinocytic rate 2- to 3.5-fold in response to a single challenge with PMA (0.01 microgram/ml). Cytochalasin B, colchicine, and podophyllotoxin have only modest inhibitory effects on the basal rate of pinocytosis and on PMA-induced cellular spreading, but completely block the stimulatory effects of PMA on pinocytosis in thioglycolate-broth-elicited macrophages. Cytochalasin D markedly inhibits both basal and PMA-stimulated pinocytosis in these cells. Thus, PMA is a useful tool for studying mechanisms of macrophage spreading and for enhancing the overall rate of pinosome formation.

description: We describe the braiding statistics of topological twist defects in abelian bosonic bilayer (mmn) fractional quantum Hall (FQH) states, which reduce to the Z_n toric code when m=0. Twist defects carry non-abelian fractional Majorana-like characteristics. We propose local statistical measurements that distinguish the fractional charge, or species, of a defect-quasiparticle composite. Degenerate ground states and basis transformations of a multi-defect system are characterized by a consistent set of fusion properties. Non-abelian unitary exchange operations are determined using half braids between defects, and projectively represent the sphere braid group in a closed system. Defect spin statistics are modified by equating exchange with 4πrotation. The braiding S matrix is identified with a Dehn twist (instead of a π/2 rotation) on a torus decorated with a non-trivial twofold branch cut, and represents the congruent subgroup Γ_0(2) of modular transformations.
