description: Research entities and the aviation industry are collaborating to reduce the greenhouse gas emissions of the global aircraft fleet. To move away from fossil fuels as energy carrier while reducing the aircrafts primary energy demand are the ideal but challenging means to achieve this target The research activities within the German government funded project TELEM have shown on a conceptual level that both measures could be realized for regional aircraft with an optimized hybrid-electric propulsion (HEP) architecture. Short, but very frequently flown distances of 200nm and more could be served fully electrically by advanced propeller-driven aircraft with an assumed entry-into-service (EIS) in 2035. This paper gives an overview of integration concepts pursued in the project and reflects on various design aspects of a plug-in hybrid-electric aircraft, featuring a fully electric flight capability and a kerosene-fueled turboshaft range-extender. The aircrafts HEP architecture is optimized with regard to the number of propellers, as well as range extenders and their integration concept as to yield the best efficiency and to enable commonality with smaller aircraft leading to potential cost reductions among aircraft classes. Furthermore, a thermal management system, which is essential for the hybrid-electric propulsion architecture and its requirements are discussed and a favorable option selected. The final configuration features ten propellers and one range extender. The results also confirmed the exceptional efficiency of a plug-in HEP architecture for regional aircraft, showing a 34.6% reduction in fleet energy and 64.4% reduction in fuel consumption compared to a conventional turboprop architecture with an EIS in 2035.

description: The silicon-vacancy ($\mathrm{SiV}^-$) color center in diamond has attracted attention due to its unique optical properties. It exhibits spectral stability and indistinguishability that facilitate efficient generation of photons capable of demonstrating quantum interference. Here we show high fidelity optical initialization and readout of electronic spin in a single $\mathrm{SiV}^-$ center with a spin relaxation time of $T_1=2.4\pm0.2$ ms. Coherent population trapping (CPT) is used to demonstrate coherent preparation of dark superposition states with a spin coherence time of $T_2^\star=35\pm3$ ns. This is fundamentally limited by orbital relaxation, and an understanding of this process opens the way to extend coherences by engineering interactions with phonons. These results establish the $\mathrm{SiV}^-$ center as a solid-state spin-photon interface.

description: This paper presents the control system design for the exoatmospheric flight of the ReFEx mission. The trajectory is planned by means of spherical linear interpolation and polynomial progression. Due to discrete firing actuators, a PD-controller including a deadband is implemented and augmented by partial feedback linearization to allow controller gain design through pole placement. A pulse-width pulse-frequency modulation scheme, capable of considering switching restrictions, is employed to interface the continuous torque commands with the thrusters. Additionally, the control allocation strategy enables compensation for up to two thruster failures. Monte-Carlo simulations finally demonstrate the performance and robustness of the control system.

description: We have demonstrated that the island nucleation in the initial stage of epitaxial thin film growth can be tuned by substrate surface charge doping. This charge effect was investigated using spin density functional theory calculation in Fe-deposition on graphene substrate as an example. It was found that hole-doping can apparently increase both Fe-adatom diffusion barrier and Fe inter-adatom repulsion energy occurring at intermediate separation, whereas electron-doping can decrease Fe-adatom diffusion barrier but only slightly modify inter-adatom repulsion energy. Further kinetic Monte Carlo simulation showed that the nucleation island density can be increased up to ten times larger under hole-doping and can be decreased down to ten times smaller than that without doping. Our findings indicates a new route to tailoring the growth morphology of magnetic metal nanostructure for spintronics applications via surface charge doping.

Dynamic super round based distributed task scheduling for UAV networks

description: Networks of Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) are emerging in many application domains, e.g., military surveillance. To perform collaborative tasks, the involved UAVs exchange several types of information, e.g., sensor data and commands. The major question here is how to schedule the tasks under dynamic traffic flows to provide network services. Existing solutions use the Round-Robin Strategy (RRS), where the tasks are scheduled statistically by dividing the time into fixed-length rounds. However, the RRS wastes significant network and device resources due to task scheduling in each round. This paper proposes DROVE – a novel clustering approach that allows the UAVs for dynamic task scheduling. However, determining the task scheduling is crucial, as it significantly affects several network parameters, e.g., throughput. Therefore, we devise the problem of distributed task scheduling under dynamic traffic flow scenarios to optimize the throughput. We propose a clustering task scheduling algorithm to serve dynamic traffic flows. Particularly, we integrate the dynamic traffic flows into the Lyapunov drift analysis framework, and determine the throughput optimality of our proposed scheduling algorithm. We perform extensive simulations to validate the effectiveness of DROVE. The results show that DROVE outperforms the state-of-the-art solutions in terms of energy consumption, clustering overhead, throughput, end-to-end delay, flow success rate and packet drop rate.

description: Transverse myelopathy is an uncommon complication of systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE). Three patients with SLE are reported who developed transverse myelopathy, including the neuropathological findings in one patient on whom necropsy was performed. Paraparesis was present in all three cases, but definite sensory changes were present in only one patient. In two patients, the CSF findings were remarkable for elevated protein and depressed glucose concentrations. Microscopic examination of the brain demonstrated small, scattered foci of recent necrosis consistent with microinfarctions. Striking abnormalities were found in the spinal cord at all levels, including multiple foci of vacuolar spongy degeneration in the peripheral white matter, as well as ballooning of myelin sheaths, swollen axons, myelin pallor, and loss of glial nuclei. The pathological findings in previously reported cases of SLE-related transverse myelopathy are reviewed, and the possible pathogenesis of the findings in our case are discussed.

description: The G-GAP project aims at studying the seismic cycle in the Guerrero subduction zone. The project includes a strong collaboration between Mexican researchers from UNAM and French researchers from Université Grenoble Alpes, Institut de Physique du Globe de Paris and Université de Strasbourg. The project is devoted to the analysis of recently discovered slow slip events for which Guerrero (Mexico) is an exceptionally favorable place of study. Non-volcanic tremors are also observed and could bring new insights on the mechanical behavior of the subduction. As part of the project, seismic antennae have been installed to complete the already existing Mexican networks. The other part of the project concerns the tectonics of central Mexico, with its associated seismic hazards, and a study of the important strong motion data available in the region in terms of ground motion predictive equations. G-GAP has benefited from a 4 year grant (Jan. 2009 - Dec. 2012) from the French agency ANR.

The contents of desmosine and isodesmosine were significantly decreased (p<0.01 and p<0.01, respectively) in patients with ALS compared with those of controls, and were negatively and significantly associated with duration of illness in ALS patients (r-0.77, p<0.01 and r-0.65, p<0.05, respectively). The decline in skin desmosine and isodesmosine is more rapid in ALS than in normal ageing. Thus cross-linking of skin elastin is affected in ALS.Two cross-links unique to elastin, desmosine and isodesmosine were measured and compared in skin tissue (left upper arm) from 10 patients with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and conseven age-matched controls.

description: Topological insulators represent a novel state of matter with surface charge carriers having a massless Dirac dispersion and locked helical spin polarization. Many exciting experiments have been proposed by theory, yet, their execution have been hampered by the extrinsic conductivity associated with the unavoidable presence of defects in Bi$_2$Te$_3$ and Bi$_2$Se$_3$ bulk single crystals as well as impurities on their surfaces. Here we present the preparation of Bi$_2$Te$_3$ thin films that are insulating in the bulk and the four-point probe measurement of the conductivity of the Dirac states on surfaces that are intrinsically clean. The total amount of charge carriers in the experiment is of order 10$^{12}$ cm$^{-2}$ only and mobilities up to 4,600 cm$^2$/Vs have been observed. These values are achieved by carrying out the preparation, structural characterization, angle-resolved and x-ray photoemission analysis, and the temperature dependent four-point probe conductivity measurement all in-situ under ultra-high-vacuum conditions. This experimental approach opens the way to prepare devices that can exploit the intrinsic topological properties of the Dirac surface states.

description: Older women may experience deficits in sensorimotor control at their upper limb because of aging progress compromising the motor system. This study aimed to investigate whether younger and older women differ in sensorimotor capabilities assessed by unilateral force control performances at a lower targeted force level. Twenty-one older and 21 younger women performed isometric unilateral force control tasks at 10 % of maximum voluntary contraction for each hand, respectively. Purdue Pegboard Test (PPT) was used to measure unilateral hand dexterity. Five force control variables (i.e., maximal and submaximal force, force error, variability, and regularity) and PPT scores were analyzed in two-way mixed ANOVAs (Group × Hand Condition), respectively. The absolute force power was analyzed in three-way mixed ANOVA (Group × Hand Condition × Frequency Band). The findings revealed that older women produced less maximal and submaximal unilateral forces than in younger women. Greater variability, regularity, and force frequency oscillations below 4 Hz were observed in older women as compared with those in younger women. Force error in the dominant hand was greater in older women than those in younger women. Finally, older women showed lower PPT scores than younger women. These findings suggested that older women may have deficits in unilateral force control capabilities as well as motor dexterity.

description: Aims: High-resolution imaging in several photometric bands can provide color and astrometric information of the wide-orbit component of Cepheid stars. Such measurements are needed to understand the age and evolution of pulsating stars. In addition, binary Cepheids have the potential to provide direct and model-independent distances and masses. Methods: We used the NAOS-CONICA adaptive optics instrument (NACO) in the near-infrared to perform a deep search for wide components around the classical Cepheids, Y~Oph, FF~Aql, X~Sgr, W~Sgr, and $η$~Aql, within a field of view (FoV) of $1.7"\times 1.7"$ ($3.4"\times 3.4"$ for $η$~Aql). Results: We were able to reach contrast $ΔH = 5$-8\,mag and $ΔK_\mathrm{s} = 4$-7\,mag in the radius range $r > 0.2"$, which enabled us to constrain the presence of wide companions. For Y~Oph, FF~Aql, X~Sgr, W~Sgr, and $η$~Aql at $r > 0.2"$, we ruled out the presence of companions with a spectral type that is earlier than a B7V, A9V, A9V, A1V, and G5V star, respectively. For $0.1"< r < 0.2"$, no companions earlier than O9V, B3V, B4V, B2V, and B2V star, respectively, are detected. A component is detected close to $η$~Aql at projected separation $ρ= 654.7 \pm 0.9$\,mas and a position angle $PA = 92.8 \pm 0.1^\circ$. We estimated its dereddened apparent magnitude to be $m_H^0 = 9.34 \pm 0.04$ and derived a spectral type that ranges between an F1V and F6V star. Additional photometric and astrometric measurements are necessary to better constrain this star and check its physical association to the $η$~Aql system.

When the misorientation angle is about 0.5 deg. a three-fold symmetric strain field is realized that results in a pseudo-magnetic field very similar to the one proposed by F. Guinea, M. I. Katsnelson, and A. K. Geim [Nat. Phys. 6, 30 (2010)]. Our results show that the periodicity and length of the pseudo-magnetic field can be tuned in GE by changing the misorientation angle and substrate adhesion parameters and a considerable energy gap (23 meV) can be obtained due to out-of-plane deformation of graphene which is in the range of recent experimental measurements (20-30 meV).

description: The 2003 MOBAL Experiment aimed at imaging the crustal and upper mantle structure from the Siberian platform in the north to the Gobi-Altay range in the south, in order to provide geodynamic constraints to deep lithosphere and asthenosphere velocities and deformations, and their relations to the Siberian craton, the Baikal rift, the Hangay dome and the large scale strike-slip faults of Sayan, Bolnay and Bogd. Several observations suggest a hot upper mantle beneath central Mongolia likely associated to a lithosphere thinning, that may also explain the anomalous elevation associated to the Hangay dome. The MOBAL experiment was followed by an aftershock sequence observation after the 2003 Chuya earthaquake.

title: Interplay of DNA replication, repair and chromatin: structure versus function
Creators: name: Mamberti, Stefania
Publisher: name: UNSPECIFIED

description: Hierarchical levels of chromatin organization allow different genomic functions to be spatio-temporally regulated within mammalian nuclei. Both DNA replication and DNA repair are global genomic processes. Their chromatin units have remarkable structural similarities and microscopically appear as clusters of nanofocal structures, each in the size range of chromatin loops. The present work aimed at relating genomic functions with the underlying structural organization by the two chromatin architectural proteins CTCF and cohesin, which cooperate to shape the genome into chromatin loops and domains. Here, CTCF was shown to be critical for cellular survival after ionizing irradiation in a CTCF-dose dependent way. The results obtained in different cell lines upon CTCF-depletion were integrated into a biophysical model. The decreased clonogenic potential showed to derive from the increased probability of double strand breaks to cluster in larger chromatin domains lacking CTCF at their borders. Moreover, CTCF proved to be enriched at the sites and at the time of DNA replication. CTCF intensity within replication foci was shown to decrease over a chase time after replication labeling, suggesting the occurrence of CTCF accumulation during ongoing DNA replication. The depletion of CTCF correlated with an impairment in cell cycle progression. CTCF-depleted cells stalled in G1 in a CTCF-dose dependent way, indicating that the chromatin structure provided by CTCF might be needed to properly enter S-phase. Additionally, CTCF resulted to be particularly enriched at the replicating inactive X and Y chromosomes. The depletion of CTCF led to the loss of synchrony in the DNA replication of the Y chromosome. Additionally, Y chromosome architecture showed changes of volume and shape upon CTCF reduction. In the second part of this work, the cohesin subunit RAD21 was shown essential to determine the structure of chromatin loops. RAD21-depleted cells exhibited an increase in the size and shape heterogeneity of chromatin loops. The cohesin component SA1 was investigated for a role in DNA damage signaling. SA1 KO cells showed an impairment of the γH2AX foci at all tested X-ray doses. The repair functional units decreased in number, volume and intensity in the absence of SA1. In conclusion, the results presented here led to propose that the functions of DNA replication and repair are determined by the chromatin architecture, with the structure dictating the function. Future work should further investigate the mechanisms behind the regulation of global genomic functions by these two chromatin architectural proteins and define the precise interplay between cohesin and CTCF within such regulation.

description: Close encounters of Near Earth Objects (NEOs) with large asteroids are a possible source of systematic errors in trajectory propagations and asteroid mitigation. It is, thus, necessary to identify those large asteroids that have to be considered as perturbers in NEO orbit modeling. Using the Standard Dynamical Model we searched for encounters between the 1649 numbered Near Earth Asteroids (NEAs) and 2191 large asteroids having sizes greater than 20 km. In- vestigating the 21st century A.D. we have found 791 close encounters with 195 different large asteroids that lead to a substantial scattering of NEOs.

description: Numerous attributes render the domestic dog a highly pertinent model for cancer-associated gene discovery. We performed microarray-based comparative genomic hybridization analysis of 60 spontaneous canine intracranial tumors to examine the degree to which dog and human patients exhibit aberrations of ancestrally related chromosome regions, consistent with a shared pathogenesis. Canine gliomas and meningiomas both demonstrated chromosome copy number aberrations (CNAs) that share evolutionarily conserved synteny with those previously reported in their human counterpart. Interestingly, however, genomic imbalances orthologous to some of the hallmark aberrations of human intracranial tumors, including chromosome 22/NF2 deletions in meningiomas and chromosome 1p/19q deletions in oligodendrogliomas, were not major events in the dog. Furthermore, and perhaps most significantly, we identified highly recurrent CNAs in canine intracranial tumors for which the human orthologue has been reported previously at low frequency but which have not, thus far, been associated intimately with the pathogenesis of the tumor. The presence of orthologous CNAs in canine and human intracranial cancers is strongly suggestive of their biological significance in tumor development and/or progression. Moreover, the limited genetic heterogenity within purebred dog populations, coupled with the contrasting organization of the dog and human karyotypes, offers tremendous opportunities for refining evolutionarily conserved regions of tumor-associated genomic imbalance that may harbor novel candidate genes involved in their pathogenesis. A comparative approach to the study of canine and human intracranial tumors may therefore provide new insights into their genetic etiology, towards development of more sophisticated molecular subclassification and tailored therapies in both species.
