Development of New Methods for Visible Light-Induced Activation of C-I, C-O, and S-O Bonds
Creators: name: Ratushnyy, Maxim
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2019
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: This thesis consists of three parts. The first part describes the development of the mild, visible light-induced palladium-catalyzed hydrogen atom translocation/atom-transfer radical cyclization (HAT/ATRC) cascade reaction of vinyl iodides. The method features a formation of previously unknown vinyl hybrid palladium-radical intermediates, capable of a 1,5-HAT process. Overall, the transformation leads to the formation of iodomethyl carbo- and heterocyclic products. The second part of this thesis communicates the development of visible light-induced sulfonylation reaction of vinylarenes with arylsulfonate phenol esters. This protocol operates via new mode of the S−O bond activation, thus constituting a novel reactivity of readily available arylsulfonate esters. The transformation leads to a variety aromatic vinyl sulfones in efficient manner. The third part describes the development of visible light-induced palladium-catalyzed intramolecular C(sp2)−X/C(sp3)−H coupling reaction of aryl triflates leading to a variety of 3,3-di- and 3-monosubstituted oxindole motifs. This method illustrates the first example of the visible light-induced palladium-catalyzed activation of C−O bond leading to the aryl hybrid palladium-radical intermediates. This transformation substantially expands the inventory of organic electrophilic partners for the visible light palladium catalysis.

Kant on Humanity and the Ground of the Innate Right to External Freedom
Creators: name: English, Robert
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2019
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: The dissertation explores three different interpretations of the “humanity” which Kant claims is the basis of the innate right to freedom. It argues against two interpretations which fail to fully appreciate the metaphysical and normative underpinnings of the sense of humanity which Kant takes to ground the innate right. It then argues for a view on which moral personality, our capacity for morally responsible agency which presupposes transcendental freedom, is the foundation of the innate right to freedom

Retrodiction of a sequence of measurement results in qubit interferometers
Creators: name: Hillery, Mark
name: Koch, Daniel
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2016
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study how well we can retrodict results of measurements made on a quantum system if we can make measurements on its final state. We know what measurements were made, but not their results. An initial examination shows that we can gain anywhere from no information to perfect information about the results of previous measurements, depending on the measurements and the initial state of the system. The case of two two-outcome measurements, the second of which is a projective measurement, is examined in some detail. We then look at a model of a qubit interferometer in which measurements are made in order to determine the path the qubit followed. The measurement made on the final state of the qubit depends on the information about previous measurement results that we are trying to determine. One can attempt to find the result of just one of the measurements, all of them, or find a measurement sequence that was not realized. We study all three possibilities.

Benchmarking inverse statistical approaches for protein structure and design with exactly solvable models

description: Inverse statistical approaches to determine protein structure and function from Multiple Sequence Alignments (MSA) are emerging as powerful tools in computational biology. However the underlying assumptions of the relationship between the inferred effective Potts Hamiltonian and real protein structure and energetics remain untested so far. Here we use lattice protein model (LP) to benchmark those inverse statistical approaches. We build MSA of highly stable sequences in target LP structures, and infer the effective pairwise Potts Hamiltonians from those MSA. We find that inferred Potts Hamiltonians reproduce many important aspects of 'true' LP structures and energetics. Careful analysis reveals that effective pairwise couplings in inferred Potts Hamiltonians depend not only on the energetics of the native structure but also on competing folds; in particular, the coupling values reflect both positive design (stabilization of native conformation) and negative design (destabilization of competing folds). In addition to providing detailed structural information, the inferred Potts models used as protein Hamiltonian for design of new sequences are able to generate with high probability completely new sequences with the desired folds, which is not possible using independent-site models. Those are remarkable results as the effective LP Hamiltonians used to generate MSA are not simple pairwise models due to the competition between the folds. Our findings elucidate the reasons for the success of inverse approaches to the modelling of proteins from sequence data, and their limitations.

Investigation of Structural Differences Between the Oncogenic Mutants of KRas 4B
Creators: name: Avik Banerjee
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2019
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: K-Ras is a membrane-associated GTPase that is frequently mutated in cancer. The incidence of K-Ras mutation is close to 90% and 50% in pancreatic and colorectal cancer, respectively. Most commonly, mutations occur at position 12, replacing a glycine with either aspartate or valine and inhibiting GTP hydrolysis. GTP-bound K-Ras recruits effector proteins, such as Raf and PI3 kinases, and initiates signaling to promote cell proliferation, survival, and motility. While G12D is the most frequent oncogenic mutation in K-Ras, G12V K-Ras is associated with a highly aggressive and drug resistant cancer phenotype. Accumulating evidence suggests that different oncogenic mutations in K-Ras activate distinct signaling pathways responsible for variability in tumorigenic potential and resistance to chemotherapy. Although structural features distinguishing G12V from G12D K-Ras are expected, recent X-ray crystallography studies of GDP- bound mutant proteins did not reveal significant differences.However, K-Ras mutants may differ in their ability to sample the conformational space in solution, while only one conformer exists in the crystal. Our preliminary data suggests that G12V but not G12D K-Ras-GDP exists in two slowly exchanging conformations in solution, one of which resembles “active” GTP-bound Ras, while neither wild type nor G12D K-Ras exhibits similar conformational exchange. This active-like conformer in the GDP-bound state interacts with Ca2+-regulator Calmodulin. Here, a model of the structure of K-Ras G12V (GDP)-CaM complex has been presented.
Super-spectral curve of irregular conformal blocks

description: We use super-spectral curve to investigate irregular conformal states of integer and half-odd integer rank. The spectral curve is the loop equation of supersymmetrized irregular matrix model. The case of integer rank corresponds to the colliding limit of supersymmetric vertex operators of NS sector and half-odd integer to the Ramond sectors. The spectral curve is simply integrable at Nekrasov-Shatashvili limit and the partition function (inner product of irregular conformal state) is obtained from the superconformal structure manifest in the spectral curve. We present some explicit forms of the partition function of integer (NS sector) and of half-odd ranks (Ramond sector).

description: Disordered systems provide paradigmatic instances of ergodicity breaking and localization phenomena. Here we explore the dynamics of excitations in a system of Rydberg atoms held in optical tweezers. The finite temperature produces an intrinsic uncertainty in the atomic positions, which translates into quenched correlated disorder in the interatomic interaction strengths. In a simple approach, the dynamics in the many-body Hilbert space can be understood in terms of a one-dimensional Anderson-like model with disorder on every other site, featuring both localized and delocalized states. We conduct an experiment on an eight-atom chain and observe a clear suppression of excitation transfer. Our experiment accesses a regime which is described by a two-dimensional Anderson model on a "trimmed" square lattice. Our results thus provide a concrete example in which the absence of excitation propagation in a many-body system is directly related to Anderson-like localization in the Hilbert space, which is believed to be the mechanism underlying many-body localization.

Surface-Energy Patterning of Metals for High-Demand, Energy-Efficient, mm-Scale Cooling Applications
Creators: name: Koukoravas, Theodore Panagiotis
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2019
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: The present work attempts to showcase the effectiveness of surface-energy patterning (wettability patterning) in thermal management applications. It is focused on exploring two different routes of engineering: the investigation of a conceptual design leading to a proof-of-concept system in the very first stages of research and the revamping of an existing device by applying new technology to it with the purpose of increasing its performance. The motivation behind this work is drawn from the great potential of surface-energy patterning to provide a platform that harnesses surface tension forces in order to transport fluids in a pumpless and rapid manner, in fact faster and more efficiently than porous media. Knowing that thermal management is not only about maintaining the proper temperature conditions for certain components, but also doing so with the least amount of energy spent, it is imperative to investigate surface energy patterning as a method of fabricating energy-efficient cooling devices. A novel active cooling system composed of a surface-energy-patterned aluminum heat sink is assembled and examined first, providing proof of concept and quantitative thermal performance measurements. This system is then taken a step further by examining various parameters that affect the performance of the aforementioned system and establishing the theoretical basis for system optimization. A modified design stemming from the theoretical considerations is finally presented and tested, increasing both system stability and performance. Finally, the focus is shifted to improving the efficiency of the vapor chamber heat spreader by replacing certain key components inside it with surface energy patterning. Namely, wettability patterning is introduced on the condenser side showing competitive performance and gravity independent operation.
Substructured formulations of nonlinear structure problems - influence of the interface condition

description: We investigate the use of non-overlapping domain decomposition (DD) methods for nonlinear structure problems. The classic techniques would combine a global Newton solver with a linear DD solver for the tangent systems. We propose a framework where we can swap Newton and DD, so that we solve independent nonlinear problems for each substructure and linear condensed interface problems. The objective is to decrease the number of communications between subdomains and to improve parallelism. Depending on the interface condition, we derive several formulations which are not equivalent, contrarily to the linear case. Primal, dual and mixed variants are described and assessed on a simple plasticity problem.

description: Recently it was found that selenium doping can suppress the charge-density-wave (CDW) order and induce bulk superconductivity in ZrTe$_3$. The observed superconducting dome suggests the existence of a CDW quantum critical point (QCP) in ZrTe$_{3-x}$Se$_x$ near $x \approx$ 0.04. To elucidate its superconducting state near the CDW QCP, we measure the thermal conductivity of two ZrTe$_{3-x}$Se$_x$ single crystals ($x$ = 0.044 and 0.051) down to 80 mK. For both samples, the residual linear term $κ_0/T$ at zero field is negligible, which is a clear evidence for nodeless superconducting gap. Furthermore, the field dependence of $κ_0/T$ manifests multigap behavior. These results demonstrate multiple nodeless superconducting gaps in ZrTe$_{3-x}$Se$_x$, which indicates conventional superconductivity despite of the existence of a CDW QCP.

description: Insufficient instrument thermo-mechanical stability is one of the many roadblocks for achieving 10cm/s Doppler radial velocity (RV) precision, the precision needed to detect Earth-twins orbiting Solar-type stars. Highly temperature and pressure stabilized spectrographs allow us to better calibrate out instrumental drifts, thereby helping in distinguishing instrumental noise from astrophysical stellar signals. We present the design and performance of the Environmental Control System (ECS) for the Habitable-zone Planet Finder (HPF), a high-resolution (R=50,000) fiber-fed near infrared (NIR) spectrograph for the 10m Hobby Eberly Telescope at McDonald Observatory. HPF will operate at 180K, driven by the choice of an H2RG NIR detector array with a 1.7micron cutoff.

General and Host-Associated Fecal Indicator Bacteria at Chicago Beaches

description: Waterborne illness resulting from surface water recreation on lakes, oceans, and rivers is a significant public health problem. Exposure to enteric bacteria, viruses, and protozoa are the main causes of swimming-related outbreaks of gastrointestinal illnesses. Historically, beach managers have monitored water quality using culture methods for indicator bacteria, E. coli and enterococci. Although these culture methods are easy to use and inexpensive, they require 18-24 hours incubation before results are available. Since microbial water quality can change rapidly, this turnaround time often results in erroneous public health information. Another drawback of current beach monitoring approaches using fecal indicator bacteria is that they do not tell us whether the pollution is coming from animal sources such as dogs, birds, ruminants or from human sewage. It is important to be able to distinguish between these different sources of fecal pollution for making meaningful beach management decisions to better protect public health. The first aim of this study was to evaluate the performance of the E. coli qPCR draft USEPA method and to identify a threshold criteria value for this relatively new E. coli qPCR method. The second aim was to compare general fecal indicator bacteria with host-specific genetic markers targeting human, bird, and dog in water samples collected from Chicago beaches in order to identify patterns in non-point source fecal pollution. Finally, the third aim of this study was to assess the effect of precipitation on bacterial concentrations at non-point source impacted Chicago beaches. This study found that the relatively new E. coli qPCR method demonstrates acceptable performance characteristics but different approaches to establishing potential threshold criteria generated quite different values suggesting that guidance from USEPA about approaches to defining comparable beach action values would be useful. The second study observed that non-human fecal pollution sources including dogs and birds may influence recreational water quality at Chicago beaches. The findings that bird markers were widely distributed at beaches, that dog markers were limited to the beach that has an area for dogs, and that human marker were rarely detected were consistent with expectations. Finally, the third study revealed that at Chicago beaches precipitation only had significant relationship with E. coli culture but not with enterococci qPCR. This study also found that the odds of detecting the MST markers were higher following wet weather (vs. dry weather) for all five host-specific genetic markers. Simultaneous use of host-specific genetic markers along with the general fecal indicator bacteria may be useful to supplement or confirm sanitary survey data for mitigation and management of recreational waters to better protect health of the beachgoers and water recreators.

description: The extensive catalog of $γ$-ray selected flat-spectrum radio quasars (FSRQs) produced by \emph{Fermi} during a four-year survey has generated considerable interest in determining their $γ$-ray luminosity function (GLF) and its evolution with cosmic time. In this paper, we introduce the novel idea of using this extensive database to test the differential volume expansion rate predicted by two specific models, the concordance $Λ$CDM and $R_{\rm h}=ct$ cosmologies. For this purpose, we use two well-studied formulations of the GLF, one based on pure luminosity evolution (PLE) and the other on a luminosity-dependent density evolution (LDDE). Using a Kolmogorov-Smirnov test on one-parameter cumulative distributions (in luminosity, redshift, photon index and source count), we confirm the results of earlier works showing that these data somewhat favour LDDE over PLE; we show that this is the case for both $Λ$CDM and $R_{\rm h}=ct$. Regardless of which GLF one chooses, however, we also show that model selection tools very strongly favour $R_{\rm h}=ct$ over $Λ$CDM. We suggest that such population studies, though featuring a strong evolution in redshift, may nonetheless be used as a valuable independent check of other model comparisons based solely on geometric considerations.

Topology of a dissipative spin: dynamical Chern number, bath induced non-adiabaticity and a quantum dynamo effect

description: We analyze the topological deformations of a spin-1/2 in an effective magnetic field induced by an ohmic quantum dissipative environment at zero temperature. From Bethe Ansatz results and a variational approach, we confirm that the Chern number is preserved in the delocalized phase for $α<1$. We report a divergence of the Berry curvature at the equator when $α_c=1$ that appears at the localization Kosterlitz-Thouless quantum phase transition in this model. Recent experiments in quantum circuits have engineered non-equilibrium protocols in time to access topological properties at equilibrium from the measure of the (quasi-)adiabatic out-of-equilibrium spin expectation values. Applying a numerically exact stochastic Schrödinger equation we find that, for a fixed sweep velocity, the bath induces a crossover from (quasi-)adiabatic to non-adiabatic dynamical behavior when the spin bath coupling increases. We also investigate the particular regime $H/ω_c \ll v/H \ll 1$, where the dynamical Chern number observable built from out-of-equilibrium spin expectation values vanishes at $α=1/2$. In this regime, the mapping to an interacting resonance level model enables us to characterize the evolution of the dynamical Chern number in the vicinity of $α=1/2$. Then, we provide an intuitive physical explanation of the breakdown of adiabaticity in analogy to the Faraday effect in electromagnetism. We demonstrate that the driving of the spin leads to the production of a large number of bosonic excitations in the bath, which in return strongly affect the spin dynamics. Finally, we quantify the spin-bath entanglement and build an analogy with an effective model at thermal equilibrium.

description: Liénard-type equations are used for the description of various phenomena in physics and other fields of science. Here we find a new family of the Liénard-type equations which admits a non-standard autonomous Lagrangian. As a by-product we obtain autonomous first integrals for each member of this family of equations. We also show that some of the previously known conditions for the existence of a non-standard Lagrangian for the Liénard-type equations follow from the linearizability of the corresponding equation via nonlocal transformations.

5HT Modulates the Mode of Fusion through the Interaction of Gbg, Calcium-synaptotagmin and SNARE Proteins
Creators: name: Rodriguez, Shelagh
Publisher: name: University of Illinois at Chicago
Year: 2019
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Fast synchronous neurotransmission occurs when an action potential triggers Ca2+ influx through voltage-gated calcium channels. The creation of a full fusion pore is inhibited by the G subunit of a Gi/o-coupled serotonin receptor, favoring kiss-and run fusion. The inhibition of G involves competition in a Ca2+-dependent manner with Synaptotagmin binding of SNAP-25 at the C-terminal. Using a novel approach to inject mutant SNAP-25 into axons we discovered two mutant SNAP-25 proteins (8A and 3) which showed decreased affinity for G, rescued synaptic transmission but failed to participate in 5-HT mediated inhibition. Inhibition of G is relieved under high Ca2+ transients. Diffusional rates and endogenous buffering of Ca2+ suggests that the hyperlocal Ca2+ concentration after a given action potential is crucially important for determining Ca2+ dependent interactions between Synaptotagmin, G and the ternary SNARE complex. This makes the open probability of VGCCs in response to a single stimulus as well as during high frequency stimulation relevant. Utilizing the newly constructed Lattice Light Sheet Microscopy I have shown that Ca2+ entry at a given active zone is variable, stochastic and independent between active zones. I propose that this variability is due to VGCCs opening in cassettes, with subsequent stimulation causing inactivation or facilitation of a subset of VGCCs.

description: The European Space Agency has invested heavily in two cornerstones missions; Herschel and Planck. The legacy data from these missions provides us with an unprecedented opportunity to study cosmic dust in galaxies so that we can answer fundamental questions about, for example: the origin of the chemical elements, physical processes in the interstellar medium (ISM), its effect on stellar radiation, its relation to star formation and how this relates to the cosmic far infrared background. In this paper we describe the DustPedia project, which is enabling us to develop tools and computer models that will help us relate observed cosmic dust emission to its physical properties (chemical composition, size distribution, temperature), to its origins (evolved stars, super novae, growth in the ISM) and the processes that destroy it (high energy collisions and shock heated gas). To carry out this research we will combine the Herschel/Planck data with that from other sources of data, providing observations at numerous wavelengths (< 41) across the spectral energy distribution, thus creating the DustPedia database. To maximise our spatial resolution and sensitivity to cosmic dust we limit our analysis to 4231 local galaxies (v < 3000 km/s) selected via their near infrared luminosity (stellar mass). To help us interpret the data we have developed a new physical model for dust (THEMIS), a new Bayesian method of fitting and interpreting spectral energy distributions (HerBIE) and a state-of-the-art Monte Carlo photon tracing radiative transfer model (SKIRT). In this the first of the DustPedia papers we describe the project objectives, data sets used and provide an insight into the new scientific methods we plan to implement.

description: We investigate the Dirac and Klein-Gordon equations, as well as greybody radiation, for the Hayward black hole (BH) spacetime. We first consider the Dirac equation using a null tetrad in the Newman- Penrose (NP) formalism. The equations are then separated into angular and radial parts. A pair of one-dimensional Schrödinger like wave equations with effective potentials is obtained from the radial part. In order to examine the behavior of potentials, they are plotted with respect to radial distances. Additionally, the Klein-Gordon equation is considered in the Hayward BH spacetime. At the end, we compute greybody factors for bosons and fermions and our results are shown graphically and discussed.

description: Fermion masses can be generated through four-fermion condensates when symmetries prevent fermion bilinear condensates from forming. This less explored mechanism of fermion mass generation is responsible for making four reduced staggered lattice fermions massive at strong couplings in a lattice model with a local four-fermion coupling. The model has a massless fermion phase at weak couplings and a massive fermion phase at strong couplings. In particular there is no spontaneous symmetry breaking of any lattice symmetries in both these phases. Recently it was discovered that in three space-time dimensions there is a direct second order phase transition between the two phases. Here we study the same model in four space-time dimensions and find results consistent with the existence of a narrow intermediate phase with fermion bilinear condensates, that separates the two asymptotic phases by continuous phase transitions.
