description: The radiation drag in photon-rich environments of cosmic explosions can seed kinetic instabilities by inducing velocity spreads between relativistically streaming plasma components. Such microturbulence is likely imprinted on the breakout signals of radiation-mediated shocks. However, large-scale, transverse magnetic fields in the deceleration region of the shock transition can suppress the dominant kinetic instabilities by preventing the development of velocity separations between electron-positron pairs and a heavy ion species. We use a one-dimensional (1D) five-fluid radiative transfer code to generate self-consistent profiles of the radiation drag force and plasma composition in the deceleration region. For increasing magnetization, our models predict rapidly growing pair multiplicities and a substantial radiative drag developing self-similarly throughout the deceleration region. We extract the critical magnetization parameter $σ_{c}$, determining the limiting magnetic field strength at which a three-species plasma can develop kinetic instabilities before reaching the isotropized downstream. For a relativistic, single ion plasma drifting with $γ_{u} = 10$ in the upstream of a relativistic radiation-mediated shock, we find the threshold $σ_{c}\approx 10^{-7}$ for the onset of microturbulence. Suppression of plasma instabilities in the case of multi-ion composition would likely require much higher values of $σ_{c}$. Identifying high-energy signatures of microturbulence in shock-breakout signals and combining them with the magnetization limits provided in this work will allow a deeper understanding of the magnetic environment of cosmic explosions like supernovae, gamma-ray bursts, and neutron star binary mergers.

description: We present GeGnn, a learning-based method for computing the approximate geodesic distance between two arbitrary points on discrete polyhedra surfaces with constant time complexity after fast precomputation. Previous relevant methods either focus on computing the geodesic distance between a single source and all destinations, which has linear complexity at least or require a long precomputation time. Our key idea is to train a graph neural network to embed an input mesh into a high-dimensional embedding space and compute the geodesic distance between a pair of points using the corresponding embedding vectors and a lightweight decoding function. To facilitate the learning of the embedding, we propose novel graph convolution and graph pooling modules that incorporate local geodesic information and are verified to be much more effective than previous designs. After training, our method requires only one forward pass of the network per mesh as precomputation. Then, we can compute the geodesic distance between a pair of points using our decoding function, which requires only several matrix multiplications and can be massively parallelized on GPUs. We verify the efficiency and effectiveness of our method on ShapeNet and demonstrate that our method is faster than existing methods by orders of magnitude while achieving comparable or better accuracy. Additionally, our method exhibits robustness on noisy and incomplete meshes and strong generalization ability on out-of-distribution meshes.

description: Politics often gets "a bad rap" from planners, who perceive it as problematic or undermining, and as something to be negated or neutralized. Daniel Kemmis, in his Community and the Politics of Place, presents a more positive view of a higher politics, interpreted here as a form of "democratics". From this vantage point, much of the politics that planners decry is possibly more akin to "plutocratics" or " autocratics". However, it is also possible that, deep down, planners really want a default form of politics, namely "technocratic", that would play more to their own traditional strengths. What could be more politically correct?
description: La politique est souvent mal vue par les urbanistes qui y voient une source de problèmes et d'embûches; pour eux, elle est un élément à soustraire ou à neutraliser. Daniel Kemmis, dons son ouvrage intitulé Community and the Politics of Place, brosse un portrait plus favorable de la politique de haut échelon, interprétée ici comme une forme de « démocratie ». Dans cette optique, maints aspects de ce que les urbanistes reprochent à la politique devient éventuellement plus proche de la « plutocratie » ou de « l'autocratie ». Par contre, il se peut aussi que dans le fond, les urbanismes désirent en fait une forme de politique par défaut, une « technocratie » qui correspondrait plus étroitement à leurs forces traditionnelles. D'un point de vue politique, quelle forme est la plus correcte?

description: We present a novel, computationally efficient approach to accelerate quantum optimal control calculations of large multi-qubit systems used in a variety of quantum computing applications. By leveraging the intrinsic symmetry of finite groups, the Hilbert space can be decomposed and the Hamiltonians block-diagonalized to enable extremely fast quantum optimal control calculations. Our approach reduces the Hamiltonian size of an $n$-qubit system from 2^n by 2^n to O(n by n) or O((2^n / n) by (2^n / n)) under Sn or Dn symmetry, respectively. Most importantly, this approach reduces the computational runtime of qubit optimal control calculations by orders of magnitude while maintaining the same accuracy as the conventional method. As prospective applications, we show that (1) symmetry-protected subspaces can be potential platforms for quantum error suppression and simulation of other quantum Hamiltonians, and (2) Lie-Trotter-Suzuki decomposition approaches can generalize our method to a general variety of multi-qubit systems.

description: Abstract Background Hypertension constitutes a growing burden of illness in developing countries like Zambia. Adequately screening and treating hypertension could greatly reduce the complications of stroke and coronary disease. Our objective was to determine the prevalence of hypertension and identify current treatment practices among adult patients presenting for routine care to rural health facilities in the Better Health Outcomes through Mentoring and Assessments (BHOMA) project. Methods We conducted a retrospective analysis of routinely collected clinical data from 46 rural government clinics in Zambia. Our analysis cohort comprised patients ≥ 25 years with recorded blood pressure measurements, who sought care at primary health centers. Consistent with prior research, in our primary analysis, we only included data from first visits. Hypertension was defined as a systolic blood pressure ≥140 mmHg, or diastolic blood pressure ≥90 mmHg, or reported use of antihypertensive medication. A sensitivity analysis was performed using median blood pressure for individuals with multiple visits. Results and Discussion From January 2011 to December 2014, 116,130 first visits by adult patients met eligibility criteria. The crude prevalence of hypertension by onsite measurement or reported use of antihypertensive medication was 23.1 % [95 % CI: 22.8-23.3] (23.6 % in females, 22.3 % in males). The age standardized prevalence of hypertension across participating sites was 28.0 % [95 % CI: 27.7-28.3] (29.7 % in females, 25.8 % in males). Sensitivity analysis revealed a similar prevalence using data from all visits. Only 5.6 % of patients had a diagnosis of hypertension documented in their medical record. Among patients with hypertension, only 18.0 % had any antihypertensive drug prescribed, with nifedipine (8.9 %), furosemide (8.3 %), and propranolol (2.4 %) as the most common. Conclusions Age standardized prevalence of hypertension in rural primary health clinics in Zambia was high compared to other studies in rural Africa; however, we diagnosed hypertension with only one measurement and this may have biased our findings. Future efforts to improve hypertension control should focus on population preventive care and primary healthcare provider education on individual management.

description: This paper will discuss a new method of signal read-out from photon detectors in ultra-large, underground liquid argon time projection chambers. In this design, the signal from the light collection system is coupled via capacitive plates to the TPC wire-planes. This signal is then read out using the same cabling and electronics as the charge information. This greatly benefits light collection: it eliminates the need for an independent readout, substantially reducing cost; It reduces the number of cables in the vapor region of the TPC that can produce impurities; And it cuts down on the number of feed-throughs in the cryostat wall that can cause heat-leaks and potential points of failure. We present experimental results that demonstrate the sensitivity of a LArTPC wire plane to photon detector signals. We also simulate the effect of a 1 $μ$s shaping time and a 2 MHz sampling rate on these signals in the presence of noise, and find that a single photoelectron timing resolution of $\sim$30 ns can be achieved.

Magnetic equilibria of relativistic axisymmetric stars: The impact of flow constants

description: Symmetries and conservation laws associated with the ideal Einstein-Euler system, for stationary and axisymmetric stars, can be utilized to define a set of flow constants. These quantities are conserved along flow lines in the sense that their gradients are orthogonal to the four-velocity. They are also conserved along surfaces of constant magnetic flux, making them powerful tools to identify general features of neutron star equilibria. One important corollary of their existence is that mixed poloidal-toroidal fields are inconsistent with the absence of meridional flows except in some singular sense, a surprising but powerful result first proven by Bekenstein and Oron. In this work, we revisit the flow constant formalism to rederive this result together with several new ones concerning both nonlinear and perturbative magnetic equilibria. Our investigation is supplemented by some numerical solutions for multipolar magnetic fields on top of a Tolman-VII background, where strict power-counting of the flow constants is used to ensure a self-consistent treatment.

description: We develop an improved lattice-Boltzmann numerical scheme to solve magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) equations in the regime of low magnetic Reynolds numbers, grounded on a manifestly Galilean covariant modeling of the Navier-Stokes equations. The simulation of the magnetic induction equation within the lattice-Boltzmann approach to MHD has been usually devised along the lines of the simplest phenomenological description, the single relaxation time (SRT) model. In order to deal with well-known stability difficulties of the SRT framework, we introduce, alternatively, a multi-relaxation-time technique for the solution of the magnetic induction equation, combined with a novel boundary condition method to cope with the subtleties of magnetic Boltzmann-like distributions on curved boundaries. As an application, we investigate open issues related to the description of transient flow regimes in MHD pipe flows, subject to non-uniform magnetic fields.

Ser170 of Bacillus thuringiensisCry1Ab δ-endotoxin becomes anchored in a hydrophobic moiety upon insertion of this protein into Manduca sextabrush border membranes
Creators: name: Alzate, Oscar
Publisher: name: BioMed Central
Year: 2009

description: Abstract Background Three spin-labeled mutant proteins, mutated at the beginning, middle, and end of α-helix 5 of the Bacillus thuringiensisCry1Ab δ-endotoxin, were used to study the involvement of these specific amino acid residues in ion transport and to determine conformational changes in the vicinity of these residues when the protein was translocated into a biological membrane. Results Amino acid residue leucine 157, located in the N-terminal portion of α-helix 5, showed no involvement in ion transport, and the environment that surrounds the residue did not show any change when transferred into the biological membrane. Serine 170, located in the middle of the α-helix, showed no involvement in ion transport, but our findings indicate that in the membrane-bound state this residue faces an environment that makes the spin less mobile, as opposed to the mobility observed in an aqueous environment. Serine 176, located in the C-terminal end of the α-helix 5 is shown to be involved in ion transport activity. Conclusion Ion transport data for L157, S170, and S176, along with the mobility of the spin-labels, structural characterization of the resulting proteins, and toxicity assays against a target insect, suggest that the toxin undergoes conformational changes upon protein translocation into the midgut membrane. These conformational changes result in the midregion of the α-helix 5 being exposed to a hydrophobic-like environment. The location of these three residues in the toxin suggests that the entire α-helix becomes inserted in the insect midgut membrane.

For repulsive interaction the answer is positive with regard to the ground-state, but what about a condensation in an excited mode? We discuss some results that have been obtained for a 2-mode bosonic Josephson junction, and for a 3-mode minimal-model of a superfluid circuit. Additionally we mention the possibility to stabilize an unstable condensate by introducing periodic or noisy driving into the system: this is due to the Kapitza and the Zeno effects.

description: The triplet contribution is computed to the 1 and 2 $^1S^\text{e}_0$ states of the He atom, to the $1\ ^1S^\text{e}_0$ state of the Li$^+$ and Be${^{2+}}$ ions, and to the $X\ ^1Σ_\text{g}^+$ ground state of the H$_2$ molecule by extensive use of double-group symmetry (equivalent to $LS$ coupling for the atomic systems) during the course of the variational solution of the no-pair Dirac-Coulomb-Breit wave equation. The no-pair Dirac-Coulomb-Breit energies are converged within a sub-parts-per-billion relative precision using an explicitly correlated Gaussian basis optimized to the non-relativistic energies. The $α$ fine-structure constant dependence of the triplet sector contribution to the variational energy is $α^4E_\text{h}$ at leading order, in agreement with the formal perturbation theory result available from the literature.

description: In order for surface scattering models to be accurate they must necessarily satisfy energy conservation and reciprocity principles. Roughness scattering models based on Kirchoff's approximation or perturbation theory do not satisfy these criteria in all frequency ranges. Here we present a surface scattering model based on analysis of scattering from a layer of particles on top of a substrate in the dipole approximation which satisfies both energy conservation and reciprocity and is thus accurate in all frequency ranges. The model takes into account the absorption in the substrate induced by the particles but does not take into account the near-field interactions between the particles.

description: We have conducted a blind search in 49 consecutive days of interplanetary scintillation observations made by the Murchison Widefield Array from mid-2019, with overlapping daily observations approximately East and South-East of the Sun at an elongation of $\sim$30 degrees and a field of view of 30 degrees. These observations detect an unprecedented density of sources. In spite of these observations being taken at sunspot minimum, this search has revealed several interesting transitory features characterised by elevated scintillation levels. One solar wind enhancement is captured in two observations several hours apart, allowing its radial movement away from the Sun to be measured. We present here a methodology for measuring the plane-of-sky velocity for the moving heliospheric structure. The plane-of-sky velocity was inferred as $0.66\pm0.147\,^{\text{o}}\text{hr}^{-1}$, or $480\pm106\,\text{km}\,\text{s}^{-1}$ assuming a distance of 1AU. After cross-referencing our observed structure with multiple catalogues of heliospheric events, we propose that the likely source of our observed structure is a stream-interaction region originating from a low-latitude coronal hole. This work demonstrates the power of widefield interplanetary scintillation observations to capture detailed features in the heliosphere which are otherwise unresolvable and go undetected.

description: KARATE (KArlsruhe high RAte TEst) is a new test system to stress test the readout chain of detector modules for the upgrade of the CMS Outer Tracker for the high-luminosity LHC. Modules consisting of two silicon strip sensors, called 2S modules, are deployed in the outer regions of the Outer Tracker. The readout chain of a 2S module consists of 16 CMS Binary Chips (CBC) each connected to two stacked silicon strip sensors. The CBC contributes data to the first trigger level by identifying particles with large transverse momenta. The output is sparsified on two concentrator chips which in turn are connected to a Gigabit transceiver that prepares the data for output through an optical module. Standard test systems such as test beams or radioactive source measurements need a track reconstruction or do have Gaussian distributed hit profiles and do not reach the occupancy or trigger rates expected in the future Outer Tracker of CMS. KARATE uses a combination of LEDs and photodiodes to inject hit patterns with varying pulse heights, occupancies and trigger rates into the front-end of the CBC, giving full control on 48 channels at 40 MHz. This offers the opportunity to directly compare injection patterns with readout patterns. This contribution introduces the test system and summarizes measurements on a CBC that is read out electrically.

description: We address a unification of the Schubert calculus problems solved by [A. Buch '02] and [A. Knutson-T. Tao '03]. That is, we prove a combinatorial rule for the structure coefficients in the torus-equivariant K-theory of Grassmannians with respect to the basis of Schubert structure sheaves. We thereby deduce the conjectural rule of [H. Thomas-A. Yong '13] for the same coefficients. Both rules are positive in the sense of [D. Anderson-S. Griffeth-E. Miller '11] (and moreover in a stronger form). Our work is based on the combinatorics of genomic tableaux and a generalization of [M.-P. Schutzenberger '77]'s jeu de taquin.

description: A conceptual problem of the electric-field mediated polarization correlations during a stochastic formation of polarization domain structure in ferroelectrics is addressed by using an exactly solvable stochastic model of polarization development in a uniaxial ferroelectric [Phys. Rev. B 107, 144109 (2023)]. A full set of time-dependent two-point correlation coefficients between all random variables is derived analytically, evaluated numerically and presented graphically in 3D. They are particularly required for the analysis of nonlinear phenomena involving spatial dispersion like optical second harmonic generation and scattering.

Saving Energy in Turbulent Flows with Unsteady Pumping

description: Viscous dissipation causes significant energy losses in fluid flows; in ducts, laminar flows provide the minimum resistance to the motion, whereas turbulent currents substantially increase the friction at the wall and the energy requirement for pumping. Great effort is currently being devoted to find new ways of reducing the energy losses induced by turbulence. Here we propose a simple and novel drag-reduction technique which achieves substantial energy savings in internal flows, even after the energy cost of the control is accounted for. Our approach consists in driving the flow with a pulsed pumping, unlike the common practice of a constant pumping. We alternate "pump on" phases where the flow accelerates, and "pump off" phases where the flow decays freely. The flow cyclically enters a quasi-laminar state during the acceleration, and transitions to a more classic turbulent state during the deceleration. Our numerical results demonstrate that important net energy savings can be achieved by simply modulating the power injection in the system over time. The physical understanding we have achieved can help the industry in reducing the waste of energy, making it cheaper and preserving the environment by reducing harmful emissions.

Data services and the librarian: Supporting early career researchers and online learners via the library. Advances in Online Education: A Peer-Reviewed Journal, 1(4), 326-345 (2023).Abstract: Library aid in research data creation and usage is an important component in preparing researchers for ethical careers. Librarians as research guides, curators and advocates for open access information have been a long-established practice for some academic libraries, and while the topic of data in libraries is frequently discussed, libraries are often without guidance on how to launch these services. This paper explores data services available to online learners offered by R1 and R2 university libraries that academic libraries investigating the inclusion of data services may consider for their own research communities. While the investigator is unable to identify a common framework among these research institutions, study results demonstrate a higher proportion of services and information available in online formats by R1 institutions over R2 institutions.This article is freely available via the HSTalks Website, as the Advances in Online Education: A Peer-Reviewed Journal publication is open source.

description: Abstract Background Village health workers (VHWs) in five villages in Bugoye subcounty (Kasese District, Uganda) provide integrated community case management (iCCM) services, in which VHWs evaluate and treat malaria, pneumonia, and diarrhoea in children under 5 years of age. VHWs use a “Sick Child Job Aid” that guides them through the evaluation and treatment of these illnesses. A retrospective observational study was conducted to measure the quality of iCCM care provided by 23 VHWs in 5 villages in Bugoye subcounty over a 2-year period. Methods Patient characteristics and clinical services were summarized using existing aggregate programme data. Lot quality assurance sampling of individual patient records was used to estimate adherence to the iCCM algorithm, VHW-level quality (based on adherence to the iCCM protocol), and change over time in quality of care (using generalized estimating equations regression modelling). Results For each of 23 VHWs, 25 patient visits were randomly selected from a 2-year period after iCCM care initiation. In these visits, 97% (150) of patients with diarrhoea were treated with oral rehydration and zinc, 95% (216) of patients with pneumonia were treated with amoxicillin, and 94% (240) of patients with malaria were treated with artemisinin-based combination therapy or rectal artesunate. However, only 44% (44) of patients with a negative rapid test for malaria were appropriately referred to a health facility. Overall, 75% (434) of patients received all the correct evaluation and management steps. Only 9 (39%) of the 23 VHWs met the pre-determined LQAS threshold for high-quality care over the 2-year observation period. Quality of care increased significantly in the first 6 months after initiation of iCCM services (p = 0.003), and then plateaued during months 7–24. Conclusions Quality of care was high for uncomplicated malaria, pneumonia and diarrhoea. Overall quality of care was lower, in part because VHWs often did not follow the guidelines to refer patients with fever who tested negative for malaria. Quality of care appears to improve in the initial months after iCCM implementation, as VHWs gain initial experience in iCCM care.
