description: We study the low-scale predictions of the supersymmetric model extended by $U(1)_R \times U(1)_{B-L}$ symmetry, obtained by breaking $SO(10)$ symmetry at GUT scale via a left-right supersymmetric model. Two new singlet Higgs fields ($χ_R$, $\barχ_R$) are responsible for the $U(1)_R \times U(1)_{B-L}$ symmetry breaking to the standard model gauge group. We explore the phenomenology of this model by assuming universal and non-universal boundary conditions at the GUT scale and their effects in obtaining consistency among low-energy observables, dark matter experiments, muon magnetic moment measurements, and $Z^{\prime}$ phenomenology. We examine different scenarios with both the lightest neutralino and sneutrino mass eigenstates as the dark matter candidates that satisfy all the experimental constraints. We explore the collider signals of various scenarios including different benchmarks and their significance versus standard model background. To complement our analysis, we perform recasting of several LHC analyses to verify the credibility of different benchmarks. We find that relaxing the universality conditions at $M_{\rm GUT}$ can significantly improve the agreement of the model against the experimental bounds. While the muon anomalous magnetic moment is found to be the most challenging observable to fit with the model, we find points in the parameter space consistent within $2 σ$ from the average measured value, employing non-universality at the GUT scale.

description: Die Jugendkriminalität in der Schweiz ist in den letzten Jahren kontinuierlich angestiegen, was zu gerichtlichen Anordnungen geführt hat, straffällige Jugendliche unter anderem in halbgeschlossenen Wohngruppen unterzubringen. Die vorliegende Bachelorarbeit untersucht die Ursachen und den Umgang mit Jugendkriminalität sowie die Wirksamkeit verschiedener Interventionen. Mit Hilfe von sechs problemzentrierten Interviews und zwei Gruppendiskussionen, die nach Kuckartz ausgewertet wurden, wird der Alltag in teilgeschlossenen Wohngruppen aus drei Perspektiven beleuchtet und wirksame Ansätze zur Prävention und Reduktion von Jugendkriminalität identifiziert.

Die Forschungsergebnisse zeigen, dass eine gründliche soziale Diagnostik, das Schaffen von Handlungsspielräumen sowie Rückschritte als Teil des Prozesses anzusehen, zentrale Elemente für den Erfolg von Interventionen sind. Darüber hinaus wurde festgestellt, dass das Aufzeigen von Ressourcen der Jugendlichen und ein intensiver Beziehungsaufbau entscheidend zur Reduktion kriminellen Verhaltens beitragen. (Ehemals) Betroffene vertiefen den Wunsch nach transparenter Kommunikation, Partizipation, klaren Perspektiven und deeskalierender Arbeitsweise.

Die Forschung unterstreicht die Bedeutung des RNR-Modells (Risk-Need-Responsivity) und der Desistance-Forschung für die Entwicklung wirksamer Interventionsstrategien. Die Bachelorarbeit liefert praxisorientierte Empfehlungen für den Umgang mit Jugendkriminalität und zeigt Notwendigkeiten auf, die zu einem gelingenderen Alltag beitragen und eine nachhaltige Abkehr von kriminellem Verhalten unterstützen.

description: We study generalised rock-paper-scissors models with an arbitrary odd number N \geq 5 of species, among which n are weak, with 2 \leq n \leq (N-1)/2. Because of the species' weakness, the probability of individuals conquering territory in the cyclic spatial game is low. Running stochastic simulations, we study the role of unevenness in the rock-paper-scissors game in spatial patterns and population dynamics, considering diverse models where the weak species are in different positions in the cyclic game order. Studying systems with five and seven species, we discover that the individuals' spatial organisation arising from the pattern formation process determines the stability of the cyclic game with multiple weak species. Our outcomes show that the presence of species unbalances the spatial distribution of organisms of the same species bringing consequences on territorial dominance, with the predominant species being determined by the position in the cyclic game order. Our simulations elucidate that, in general, the further apart the regions inhabited by different weak species are, the less the coexistence between the species is jeopardised. We show that if multiple weak species occupy adjacent spatial domains, the unevenness in the cyclic game is reinforced, maximising the chances of biodiversity loss. Our discoveries may also be helpful to biologists in comprehending systems where weak species unbalance biodiversity stability.

description: Simplified, classical models of water are an integral part of atomistic molecular simulations, especially in biology and chemistry where hydration effects are critical. Yet, despite several decades of effort, these models are still far from perfect. Presented here is an alternative approach to constructing point charge water models - currently, the most commonly used type. In contrast to the conventional approach, we do not impose any geometry constraints on the model other than symmetry. Instead, we optimize the distribution of point charges to best describe the "electrostatics" of the water molecule, which is key to many unusual properties of liquid water. The search for the optimal charge distribution is performed in 2D parameter space of key lowest multipole moments of the model, to find best fit to a small set of bulk water properties at room temperature. A virtually exhaustive search is enabled via analytical equations that relate the charge distribution to the multipole moments. The resulting "optimal" 3-charge, 4-point rigid water model (OPC) reproduces a comprehensive set of bulk water properties significantly more accurately than commonly used rigid models: average error relative to experiment is 0.76%. Close agreement with experiment holds over a wide range of temperatures, well outside the ambient conditions at which the fit to experiment was performed. The improvements in the proposed water model extend beyond bulk properties: compared to the common rigid models, predicted hydration free energies of small molecules in OPC water are uniformly closer to experiment, root-mean-square error < 1kcal/mol.

Migration

description: This paper aims at shedding light on integration measures for immigrants employed at EU level. The focus of the discussion accounts for an integrated top-down and bottom-up series of approaches toward the management of the present migration flows in Europe. The first section portrays the inner status categories of the flows. The second paragraph glances at integration, as it is provided by the country of destination to mostly non-Europeans. The third section discusses the dynamic forces of migrants inside the EU labor market, followed by the evaluation of the “integration-labor market” nexus towards welfare sustainability. A specific fragment of the analysis includes policies adopted by some countries in the context of social and economic integration on a city level and evaluates bad and good practices. The last section guides toward the disarticulation of common beliefs in the agenda of migrants and labor market. Indeed, labels influence both the consideration and the perception people have of the others. The inner dynamics of integration inside the Union are a direct consequence of the label given to that cluster of people, which broadly goes by the name of “immigrants” where mastering the language of the destination country and being able, and allowed, to find a job are of chief importance.

description: The study was aimed to investigate the phytochemical composition, antioxidant, antibacterial and enzyme inhibitory effects of Psydrax dicoccos leaf (PDL). Hydroalcoholic extract (HAE) was recorded with high concentration of total phenolics (59.68 ± 0.3 mg GAE/g), total flavonoids (57.85 ± 0.5 mgQRE/g) and proanthocyanidin (24.98 ± 0.17 mgAAE/g). Ethyl acetate (31.76 ± 1.52 mgQE/g), methanolic (34.99 ± 0.16 mgAAE/g) and aqueous (75.00 ± 0.30 mgGAE/g) extracts showed a high amount of total flavanols, vitamin E and total tannins, respectively. GC-MS analysis facilitated the identification of 56 metabolites with squalene and cinnamic acid as prominent compounds. HAE showed moderate α-amylase (IC50 of 48.94 ± 0.5 µg/mL) and α-glucosidase (IC50 of 46.98 ± 0.5 µg/mL) inhibitory activities. HAE is also perceived as a potent radical scavenger, reducing agent, metal chelating power, and total antioxidant capacity. For antibacterial activity, the aqueous extract was most effective with the MIC ranged from 87.5 to 175 µg/mL. Further characterization and in vivo studies are suggested to validate its traditional claim as a potential source of therapeutic agents.

description: In Ref. [Parra-Rivas at al., 2013], using the Swift-Hohenberg equation, we introduced a mechanism that allows to generate oscillatory and excitable soliton dynamics. This mechanism was based on a competition between a pinning force at inhomogeneities and a pulling force due to drift. Here, we study the effect of such inhomogeneities and drift on temporal solitons and Kerr frequency combs in fiber cavities and microresonators, described by the Lugiato-Lefever equation with periodic boundary conditions. We demonstrate that for low values of the frequency detuning the competition between inhomogeneities and drift leads to similar dynamics at the defect location, confirming the generality of the mechanism. The intrinsic periodic nature of ring cavities and microresonators introduces, however, some interesting differences in the final global states. For higher values of the detuning we observe that the dynamics is no longer described by the same mechanism and it is considerably more complex.

description: A large, incomplete fragment of arthropod cuticle with distinctive tuberculate ornamentation from the late Permian Kaloola Member, Baralaba Coal Measures of the Bowen Basin in central Queensland, is assigned to the mycteropoid clade of sea scorpions. It is Changhsingian (254–252 Ma) in age and occurs in a freshwater, possibly fluvial, environment. The cuticle ornamentation consists of round to oval tubercles in two size classes and differs, in detail, from all previously described mycteropoids. We therefore propose a new species, ?Woodwardopterus freemanorum sp. nov., to accomodate this new specimen. It is at least 11 Ma younger than any previously known eurypterid fossil. This significant discovery demonstrates that large sweep-feeding eurypterids persisted until the end-Permian extinction in the southern high latitudes of Gondwana. Ecological factors that may have contributed to the survival of these freshwater eurypterids into the late Palaeozoic are also briefly discussed.

description: Based on a well-preserved specimen from Eocene Baltic amber, the second species of extinct Aberrokorynetes is described and illustrated using X-ray micro-computed tomography. Three-dimensional models reconstructed from μCT data were used to assist in the description of Aberrokorynetes oceanojubilaei sp. nov. (Cleridae: Korynetinae). The extinct genus Visokorynetes is resurrected from synonymy with Prosymnus Laporte, 1836. Additionally, two new records of Visokorynetes priscus from Baltic amber are presented. Twenty-four morphological characters of nine genera of Korynetinae were analysed to find an approximate systematic position of the fossils. Visokorynetes was found to be a member of Korynetinae sensu stricto while Aberrokorynetes was placed in a group of genera of the former Enopliinae or Neorthopleurinae.

description: The world of education for several years was restless. Leadership in schools, and specifically, the role of "headmaster", is very timely in almost all countries that have long taken the autonomy on. Proof of this is the fact that the Directorate for Education OECD has been engaged in a comparative study which was attended by over twenty countries entitled "Improving School Leadership". The Headmaster is the leading individual in the school's leadership. My work has investigated the particular Italian path to the autonomy of educational institutions and the growing power of D.S. although in view of shared leadership. Subject of the study were also the RAV (Self Assessment Report) and the new PTOF (Triennial Plan of Formative Offer). The D.S. You saw significantly expanded their skills thanks to the allocation of new tasks and functions, including the possibility of granting three-year assignments to teachers; evaluating teachers in this period; grant economic incentives to deserving teachers.

description: Il mondo della Pubblica Istruzione da diversi anni è in fermento. La leadership nelle scuole, e nello specifico, il ruolo del “capo di istituto”, è di grande attualità in quasi tutti i paesi che hanno da tempo intrapreso la via dell’autonomia. Ne è prova il fatto che il Directorate for Education dell’OCSE è stato impegnato in una ricerca comparativa cui hanno partecipano oltre venti paesi dal titolo “Improving School Leadership”. Il Dirigente Scolastico è il principale individuo nella posizione di leadership della scuola. Il mio lavoro ha indagato il particolare percorso italiano verso l’autonomia delle istituzioni scolastiche e il crescente potere del D.S. anche se in un’ottica di leadership condivisa. Oggetto di studio sono stati anche il RAV (Rapporto di Autovalutazione) e il nuovo PTOF (Piano Triennale di Offerta Formativa). Il D.S. ha visto sensibilmente ampliate le proprie competenze grazie anche all’attribuzione di nuovi compiti e funzioni tra cui la possibilità di concedere incarichi triennali ai docenti; valutare i docenti in periodo di formazione; concedere incentivi economici a docenti meritevoli.

description: This article focuses on the sciurid (Rodentia, Sciuridae) remains from the early Miocene (MN4) Mokrá-Quarry sites, Moravia, Czech Republic. The sciurid assemblage in the different fissures ranges from one genus in MWQ4/2018 to three different genera in MCQ3/2005. Regarding subfamily Sciurinae, the dentognathic remains are referred to Palaeosciurus aff. fissurae, which shows an intermediate stage of evolution between Palaeosciurus fissurae and Palaeosciurus sutteri according to the development of conules in both upper and lower molars. Although the sciurid postcranial remains are left unassigned, several calcanei show strong morphological features belonging to ground squirrels, and, are therefore attributed to cf. Palaeosciurus. As for Pteromyinae subfamily, three genera were recovered (Miopetaurista, Blackia and Aliveria), including a new species: Aliveria mojmiri sp. nov. The new species shows a more specialised dental pattern and could further represent the ancestral species from which several middle Miocene genera evolved. Furthermore, some of the recovered calcanei have been here identified as cf. Aliveria, representing the first postcranial remains ever belonging to the genus, and confirm its attribution as a flying squirrel. The presence of both ground and flying squirrels is in concordance with an open landscape with patches of woodland proposed for Mokrá-Quarry sites.

description: We resonantly inject polaritons into a microcavity and track them in time and space as they feel a force due to the cavity gradient. This is an example of "slow reflection," as the polaritons, which can be viewed as renormalized photons, slow down to zero velocity and then move back in the opposite direction. These measurements accurately measure the lifetime of the polaritons in our samples, which is 180 $\pm$ 10 ps, corresponding to a cavity leakage time of 135 ps and a cavity $Q$ of 320,000. Such long-lived polaritons propagate millimeters in these wedge-shaped microcavities. Additionally, we generate polaritons by two-photon excitation directly into the polariton states, allowing the possibility of modulation of the two-photon absorption by a polariton condensate.

description: We write explicitly the complete Lorentzian metric of a singularity-free spacetime where a black hole transitions into a white hole located in its same asymptotic region. In particular, the metric interpolates between the black and white horizons. The metric satisfies the Einstein field equations up to the tunneling region. The matter giving rise to the black hole is described by the Oppenheimer-Snyder model, corrected with loop-quantum-cosmology techniques in the quantum region. The interior quantum geometry is fixed by a local Killing symmetry, broken at the horizon transition. At large scale, the geometry is determined by two parameters: the mass of the hole and the duration of the transition process. The latter is a global geometrical parameter. We give the full metric outside the star in a single coordinate patch.

description: A bacterial biofilm is an aggregate of micro-organisms growing fixed onto a solid surface, rather than floating freely in a liquid. Biofilms play a major role in various practical situations such as surgical infections and water treatment. We consider a non-linear PDE model of biofilm growth subject to initial and Dirichlet boundary conditions, and the inverse coefficient problem of recovering the unknown parameters in the model from extra measurements of quantities related to the biofilm and substrate. By addressing and analysing this inverse problem we provide reliable and robust reconstructions of the primary physical quantities of interest represented by the diffusion coefficients of substrate and biofilm, the biomass spreading parameters, the maximum specific consumption and growth rates, the biofilm decay rate and the half saturation constant. We give particular attention to the constant coefficients involved in the leading-part non-linearity, and present a uniqueness proof and some numerical results. In the course of the numerical investigation, we have identified extra data information that enables improving the reconstruction of the eight-parameter set of physical quantities associated to the model of biofilm growth.

description: We present numerical simulations for the diluted antiferromagnetic 3D Ising model (DAFF) in an external magnetic field at zero temperature. Our results are compatible with the DAFF being in the same universality class as the Random Field Ising model, in agreement with the renormalization group prediction.

description: Although a number of studies have reported that resveratrol has analgesic effects, the direct effect of resveratrol on substantia gelatinosa (SG) neurons of the trigeminal subnucleus caudalis (Vc) involved in orofacial nociceptive transmission has not been clearly examined. Thus, the objective of this study was to investigate effects of resveratrol on SG neurons of Vc in mice using a whole-cell patch-clamp technique. Resveratrol (500 μM) induced repeatable inward currents without desensitisation. Resveratrol-induced inward currents were shown in a concentration-dependent manner. Resveratrol-induced responses were sustained in the presence of tetrodotoxin, 6-cyano-7-nitroquinoxaline-2,3-dione (CNQX), and DL-2-Amino-5-phosphonovaleric acid (DL-AP5). However, resveratrol-induced inward currents were suppressed in the presence of picrotoxin and strychnine. These results indicate that resveratrol can directly act on SG neurons of Vc with possible inhibitory effects on SG neurons through activation of GABAA receptors and/or glycine receptors. Thus, resveratrol can be a potential therapeutic for orofacial pain modulation.

description: The root system architecture and its interactions with soil microorganisms play a key role in crop performance, particularly in the capture of water and mineral elements. Studying roots is more complicated than studying the above-ground parts. 

To facilitate the complex study of root systems, the shovelomics method was validated. The method measures root traits on plants sampled with a spade. With that simple method, we can access the 3D architecture of the main roots growing into the ridge.

This factsheet explains the method for potatoes.

description: We study a gate-tunable superconducting qubit (gatemon) based on a thin InAs-Al hybrid nanowire. Using a gate voltage to control its Josephson energy, the gatemon can reach the strong coupling regime to a microwave cavity. In the dispersive regime, we extract the energy relaxation time $T_1\sim$0.56 $μ$s and the dephasing time $T_2^* \sim$0.38 $μ$s. Since thin InAs-Al nanowires can have fewer or single sub-band occupation and recent transport experiment shows the existence of nearly quantized zero-bias conductance peaks, our result holds relevancy for detecting Majorana zero modes in thin InAs-Al nanowires using circuit quantum electrodynamics.

The kinematical center and mass profile of the Local Group

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Abandoning the assumption that light traces mass, I seek the location of the center of the Local Group of galaxies based solely on kinematic data and the plausible assumption of infall. The available set of positions and radial velocities is shown to be a misleading indicator of Local Group motions, giving a direction to the center offset from the true one; statistical techniques of moderate sophistication do not catch the offset. Corrected calculations show the center to lie in the direction to M31 within the uncertainty of the method, a few degrees. The distance to the center is not well determined, lying about 0.5 Mpc from the Milky Way. The pattern of observed (galactocentric) radial velocities excludes both dynamically important `orphan haloes' and any extended dark matter halo for the Group as a whole, and shows the Group to have formed from a much more extended volume than it presently occupies. Kinematics alone indicates that the mass of the Group is concentrated effectively in M31 and the Milky Way.

Integrationshindernisse von jungen Geflüchteten: Handlungsansätze für Fachkräfte im Bereich der Integration von jungen Menschen mit Fluchthintergrund

description: Nachfolgende Bachelor-Arbeit untersucht die Integration von jungen Geflüchteten in der Schweiz und die Herausforderungen, welchen sie dabei begegnen. Im Fokus steht, wie Sozialarbeitende junge Menschen mit Fluchthintergrund, trotz komplexer und oft widersprüchlicher integrationspolitischer Vorgaben, unterstützen können. Die Arbeit beleuchtet zentrale Integrationshindernisse für Geflüchtete im Alter von 18 bis 25 Jahren, darunter Bildungsbarrieren, Arbeitsmarktintegration und traumatische Erlebnisse. Diese Hindernisse sind sowohl struktureller als auch individueller Natur und eng mit der Lebenswelt der Betroffenen verknüpft.

Staatliche Regelungen gehen häufig nicht ausreichend auf die Bedürfnisse von jungen Geflüchteten ein und fordern von ihnen eine schnelle Anpassung an unsere Gesellschaft, ohne ihre individuellen Lebensumstände zu berücksichtigen. Diese widersprüchlichen Integrationsvorgaben führen zu einer unzureichenden Unterstützung und erhöhten Belastungen. Diese Arbeit betont die Bedeutung einer kultursensiblen und lebensweltorientierten Herangehensweise der Sozialen Arbeit. Durch theoretische Analysen werden Empfehlungen entwickelt, um die Integration dieser jungen Menschen zu unterstützen. Insgesamt bietet die Arbeit Einsichten und Ansätze für die Soziale Arbeit, um die Unterstützung von jungen Geflüchteten zu verbessern und eine Gesellschaft mit mehr Inklusion zu fördern.

description: Most biogeographers considered the Maghreb to be part of the Palearctic biogeographic region, though it is relatively recently that the proportion of Palearctic species increased there. How and when exactly these biogeographic changes occurred is not well understood, but they are probably the result of the increasing aridification of the Sahara and decreasing global temperatures. Fossils of Bos primigenius and Ceratotherium simum from a new fossil locality in a terrace of the Oued el Haï (NE Morocco) contribute to our understanding of some of these biogeographic processes and their timing. They also suggest an age between ~57 and ~100 ka for the terrace. The same evolutionary change in Bos in Europe and the Maghreb suggests geneflow as the most parsimonious explanation, though parallel evolution is an alternative possibility. Oued el Haï has the oldest well-documented record of C. simum in the Maghreb. The dispersal of this species to North Africa, where it replaced C. mauritanicum, may have occurred during a ‘Green Sahara Period’ between 80–85 or 100–105 ka, when the Maghreb had acquired already a Palearctic character. The study of the biogeography and requirements of the large mammals of the Maghreb may provide information to calibrate the region’s climate modelling.

description: We compute the diagrammatic expansion of the particle-particle susceptibility via algorithmic Matsubara integration and compute the correlated pairing susceptibility in the thermodynamic limit of the 2D Hubbard Model. We study the static susceptibility and its dependence on the pair momentum $\mathbf{q}$ for a range of temperature, interaction strength, and chemical potential. We show that $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave pairing is expected in the model in the $U/t\to 0^+ $ limit from direct perturbation theory. From this, we identify key second and third-order diagrams that support pairing processes and note that the diagrams responsible are not a part of charge or spin susceptibility expansions. We find two key components for pairing at momenta $(0,0)$ and $(π,π)$ that can be well fit as separate bosonic modes. We extract amplitudes and correlation length scales where we find a predominantly local $(π,π)$ pairing and non-local $\mathbf{q}=(0,0)$ pairs and present the relative weights of these modes for variation in temperature, doping, and interaction strength.
