description: A simple chiral quark model of the Nambu--Jona-Lasinio (NJL) type with a quark confinement mechanism is constructed for the description of the light meson sector of QCD at finite temperature. Unphysical quark production thresholds in the NJL model are excluded by an infrared cut-off in the momentum integration within quark loop diagrams. This chiral quark model satisfies the low energy theorems. Using the vacuum masses and decay widths of π- and ρ-mesons for fixing the model parameters, the properties of the σ- meson are derived. Within the Matsubara formalism, the model is systematically extended to finite temperatures where chiral symmetry restoration due to a dropping constituent quark mass entails a vanishing of the infrared cut-off (deconfinement) at the pion Mott temperature T_c=186 MeV. Besides of the pion mass and weak decay constant, the masses, coupling constants and decay widths of σ- and ρ-mesons in hot matter are investigated. The quark-antiquark decay channel of the light mesons is opened for T>T_c only and becomes particularly strong for the ρ- meson. The two-pion decay channel below T_c has almost constant width for the ρ- meson up to T_c, but for the σ-meson it closes below T_c such that a scalar meson state with vanishing width is obtained as a precursor of the chiral/deconfinement transition.

description: In a first-principles study based on density-functional theory and many-body perturbation theory we investigate the electronic properties and the optical excitations of ZrS$_2$ and HfS$_2$ monolayers and their van der Waals heterostructure. Both materials have an indirect quasi-particle band gap, which amounts to about 2.8 eV in ZrS$_2$ and to 2.6 eV in HfS$_2$. In both systems the valence-band maximum is at $Γ$ and the conduction-band minimum at M. Spin-orbit coupling induces a splitting of about 100 meV at the $Γ$ point in the valence band, while it does not affect the conduction band. The optical absorption spectra are dominated by excitonic peaks, with binding energies between 0.6 eV and 0.8 eV. The ZrS$_2$/HfS$_2$ heterobilayer exhibits a peculiar type-I level alignment with a large degree of hybridization between the two monolayers in the valence band, while the conduction bands retain either ZrS$_2$ or HfS$_2$ character, respectively. As a consequence, both the electron and the hole components of the first exciton are localized in the ZrS$_2$ monolayer with non-vanishing probability of finding the hole also in the HfS$_2$ sheet.

description: We study a bus system with a no-boarding policy, where a "slow" bus may disallow passengers from boarding if it meets some criteria. When the no-boarding policy is activated, people waiting to board at the bus stop are given the choices of \emph{cooperating} or \emph{defecting}. The people's heterogeneous behaviours are modelled by inductive reasoning and bounded rationality, inspired by the El Farol problem and the minority game. In defecting the no-boarding policy, instead of the minority group being the winning group, we investigate several scenarios where defectors win if the number of defectors does not exceed the maximum number of allowed defectors but lose otherwise. Contrary to the classical minority game which has $N$ agents repeatedly playing amongst themselves, many real-world situations like boarding a bus involves only a subset of agents who "play each round", with \emph{different subsets playing at different rounds}. We find for such realistic situations, there is no phase transition with no herding behaviour when the usual control paramater $2^m/N$ is small. The absence of the herding behaviour assures feasible and sustainable implementation of the no-boarding policy with allowance for defections, without leading to bus bunching.

description: We present a class of four-dimensional models, with a non-supersymmetric spectrum, in which the radiative corrections to the Higgs mass are not sensitive, at least at one-loop, to the UV completion of the theory. At one loop, Yukawa interactions of the top quark contribute to a finite and negative Higgs squared mass which triggers the electroweak symmetry breaking, as in softly broken supersymmetric theories, while gauge interactions lead to a logarithmic cutoff dependent correction that can remain subdominant. Our construction relies on a hard supersymmetry breaking localized in the theory space of deconstruction models and predicts, within a renormalizable setup, analogous physics as five-dimensional scenarios of Scherk-Schwarz supersymmetry breaking. The electroweak symmetry breaking can be calculated in terms of the deconstruction scale, replication number, top-quark mass and electroweak gauge couplings. For m_top ~ 170 Gev, the Higgs mass varies from 158 GeV for N=2 to 178 GeV for N=10.

description: We examine the CP properties of chiral gauge theory defined by a formulation of the domain wall fermion, where the light field variables $q$ and $\bar q$ together with Pauli-Villars fields $Q$ and $\bar Q$ are utilized. It is shown that this domain wall representation in the infinite flavor limit $N=\infty$ is valid only in the topologically trivial sector, and that the conflict among lattice chiral symmetry, strict locality and CP symmetry still persists for finite lattice spacing $a$. The CP transformation generally sends one representation of lattice chiral gauge theory into another representation of lattice chiral gauge theory, resulting in the inevitable change of propagators. A modified form of lattice CP transformation motivated by the domain wall fermion, which keeps the chiral action in terms of the Ginsparg-Wilson fermion invariant, is analyzed in detail; this provides an alternative way to understand the breaking of CP symmetry at least in the topologically trivial sector. We note that the conflict with CP symmetry could be regarded as a topological obstruction. We also discuss the issues related to the definition of Majorana fermions in connection with the supersymmetric Wess-Zumino model on the lattice.

description: In this paper we study a static cyclic symmetric traversable wormhole in $(2+1)-$dimensional gravity coupled to nonlinear electrodynamics in anti-de Sitter spacetime. The solution is characterized by three parameters: mass $M$, cosmological constant $Λ$ and one electromagnetic parameter, $q_α$. The causality of this spacetime is studied, determining its maximal extension and constructing then the corresponding Kruskal-Szekeres and Penrose diagrams. The quasinormal modes (QNMs) that result from considering a massive scalar test field in the wormhole background are determined by solving in exact form the Klein-Gordon equation; the effective potential resembles the one of a harmonic oscillator shifted from its equilibrium position and, consequently, the QNMs have a pure point spectrum.

description: The slice-independent gauge-fixed superstring chiral measure in genus 2 derived in the earlier papers of this series for each spin structure is evaluated explicitly in terms of theta-constants. The slice-independence allows an arbitrary choice of superghost insertion points q_1, q_2 in the explicit evaluation, and the most effective one turns out to be the split gauge defined by S_δ(q_1,q_2)=0. This results in expressions involving bilinear theta-constants M. The final formula in terms of only theta-constants follows from new identities between M and theta-constants which may be interesting in their own right. The action of the modular group Sp(4,Z) is worked out explicitly for the contribution of each spin structure to the superstring chiral measure. It is found that there is a unique choice of relative phases which insures the modular invariance of the full chiral superstring measure, and hence a unique way of implementing the GSO projection for even spin structure. The resulting cosmological constant vanishes, not by a Riemann identity, but rather by the genus 2 identity expressing any modular form of weight 8 as the square of a modular form of weight 4. The degeneration limits for the contribution of each spin structure are determined, and the divergences, before the GSO projection, are found to be the ones expected on physical grounds.

description: We consider the two-brane Randall-Sundrum (RS) model with bulk gauge fields. We carefully match the bulk theory to a 4D low-energy effective Lagrangian. In addition to the four-fermion operators induced by KK exchange we find that large negative S and T parameters are induced in the effective theory. This is a tree-level effect and is a consequence of the shapes of the W and Z wave functions in the bulk. Such effects are generic in extra dimensional theories where the standard model (SM) gauge bosons have non-uniform wave functions along the extra dimension. The corrections to precision electroweak observables in the RS model are mostly dominated by S. We fit the parameters of the RS model to the experimental data and find somewhat stronger bounds than previously obtained; however, the standard model bound on the Higgs mass from precision measurements can only be slightly relaxed in this theory.

Topological and noninertial effects in an Aharonov-Bohm ring

description: In this paper, we study the influence of topological and noninertial effects on a Dirac particle confined in an Aharonov-Bohm (AB) ring. Next, we explicitly determine the Dirac spinor and the energy spectrum for the relativistic bound states. We observe that this spectrum depends on the quantum number $n$, magnetic flux $Φ$ of the ring, angular velocity $ω$ associated to the noninertial effects of a rotating frame, and on the deficit angle $η$ associated to the topological effects of a cosmic string. We verified that this spectrum is a periodic function and grows in values as a function of $n$, $Φ$, $ω$, and $η$. In the nonrelativistic limit, we obtain the equation of motion for the particle, where now the topological effects are generated by a conic space. However, unlike relativistic case, the spectrum of this equation depends linearly on the velocity $ω$ and decreases in values as a function of $ω$. Comparing our results with other works, we note that our problem generalizes some particular cases of the literature. For instance, in the absence of the topological and noninertial effects ($η=1$ and $ω=0$) we recover the usual spectrum of a particle confined in an AB ring ($Φ\neq{0}$) or in an 1D quantum ring ($Φ=0$).

description: Recent work on layered structures of superconductors (S) or normal metals (N) in contact with ferromagnetic insulators (FI) has shown how the properties of the previous can be strongly affected by the magnetic proximity effect due to the static FI magnetization. Here we show that such structures can also exhibit a new electron thermalization mechanism due to the coupling of electrons with the dynamic magnetization, i.e., magnons in FI. We here study the heat flow between the two systems and find that in thin films the heat conductance due to the interfacial electron-magnon collisions can dominate over the well-known electron-phonon coupling below a certain characteristic temperature that can be straightforwardly reached with present-day experiments. We also study the role of the magnon band gap and the induced spin-splitting field induced in S on the resulting heat conductance and show that heat balance experiments can reveal information about such quantities in a way quite different from typical magnon spectroscopy experiments.

It is found that there are infinitely many consistent Poisson structures, each leads to a consistent canonical quantization of open string in the presence of background $B$-field. Consequently, whether the $D$-branes to which the open string end points are attached is noncommutative or not depends on the choice of a particular Poisson structure.

description: It has been known for decades that thermal conductivity of insulating crystals becomes proportional to the inverse of temperature when the latter is comparable to or higher than the Debye temperature. This behavior has been understood as resulting from Umklapp scattering among phonons. We put under scrutiny the magnitude of the thermal diffusion constant in this regime and find that it does not fall below a threshold set by the square of sound velocity times the Planckian time ($τ_p=\hbar/k_BT$). The conclusion, based on scrutinizing the ratio in cubic crystals with high thermal resistivity, appears to hold even in glasses where Umklapp events are not conceivable. Explaining this boundary, reminiscent of a recently-noticed limit for charge transport in metals, is a challenge to theory.

description: 1. Jatrorrhizine is an active ingredient found in various traditional Chinese medicinal plants. Based on our previous finding that jatrorrhizine was a potent inhibitor of OCT2 and OCT3, the aim of the present study was to explore whether jatrorrhizine has an antidepressant-like action action via inhibition of uptake-2 transporters. 2. In vitro uptake tests showed that jatrorrhizine strongly inhibited PMAT-mediated MPP+ uptake with an IC50 value of 1.05 μM and reduced 5-HT and NE uptake mediated by hOCT2, hOCT3 and hPMAT with IC50 values of 0.1–1 μM (for OCT2 and OCT3) and 1–10 μM (for PMAT). 3. In mouse synaptosomes, jatrorrhizine suppressed 5-HT and NE uptake in a concentration dependently manner, where the role of uptake-2 inhibition is significant. 4. The antidepressant-like action of jatrorrhizine was evaluated by mouse tail suspension test (TST). The TST showed that one week of jatrorrhizine (5, 10 and 20 mg/kg, i.p.) or venlafaxine (20 mg/kg, i.g.) can significantly reduce the duration of immobility when compared with vehicle control group. 5. The concentration of jatrorrhizine shows a dose-dependent increase in brain tissues. 6. Our study suggested that jatrorrhizine might be used as an antidepressant agent via inhibition of uptake-2 transporters.

Currently there is a lack of information about the population size and abundance of this species in Slovakia. Despite the fact, the criterion C1 was evaluated as "good" because of the relatively widespread distribution of the species in Slovakia. Even though a low weight (2 or 1) was appointed for the criterion C1. The criterion C2 (Habitats) was evaluated as "good" from the habitat status point of view and "average" concerning the water regime because of the long-term decreasing of numbers of suitable wetland habitats within Slovakia, generally.
 V. angustior is listed as vulnerable (VU) in the National Red List of Molluscs of Slovakia (ŠTEFFEK & VAVROVÁ 2006), which was prepared in 2006 under the categories and criterion of IUCN, version 3.1 (2001).

description: This paper delves into the historical evolution of policing, tracing its origins from ancient times to contemporary law enforcement agencies. The term "police" originated in 18th-century France, defining a government organization responsible for maintaining law and order through the efforts of police officers and officials. Policing has a rich history dating back to 3000 B.C, with the Roman vigils establishing the first organized police force.

In England, during the 1600s, citizen groups known as vigilantes emerged in response to high crime rates, while the English watch system was adopted in America. Notably, Sir Robert Peel introduced the Metropolitan Police Force in England, colloquially referred to as "Bobbies," signifying a significant development in modern policing.

The narrative then shifts to Nigeria, where the establishment of the Nigerian Police Force (NPF) predates the 1999 Nigerian constitution. Before British colonization, law and order in Nigeria were maintained through traditional institutions and the age-grade system. With the arrival of the British, the police system transitioned from local chiefs to the colonial administration. William McCoskry, the first acting Governor of Lagos, established the Hausa constabulary/Lagos Police Force in 1861, marking a pivotal moment in Nigerian policing history

description: The Extragalactic Background Light (EBL) can be probed via the absorption imprint it leaves in the spectra of gamma-ray sources ($γγ\rightarrow e^-e^+$). We recently developed a dedicated technique to reconstruct the EBL, and its evolution with redshift, from $γ$ ray optical depth data using a large sample of blazars detected by the $Fermi$ Large Area Telescope. Here, we extend this dataset to the TeV regime using ground-based Cherenkov observations of 38 blazars and report the first homogeneous measurement of the EBL spectral intensity covering the ultraviolet to infrared wavelengths ($\sim$0.1-100$\mathrm{μm}$). A minimal EBL throughout the wavelength range with respect to integrated galaxy light is found, allowing little additional unresolved emission from faint or truly diffuse populations setting an upper limit of $\lesssim 4~{\rm nW\cdot m^{-2}sr^{-1}}$ at 1.4 ${\rm μm}$. In particular, the cosmic optical background (COB) at $z=0$ is found to be $27.8_{-2.0}^{+2.1}~{\rm nW\cdot m^{-2}sr^{-1}}$. This work lays the foundation for accurate gamma-ray measurements of the EBL across its whole spectral range using a combination of GeV and TeV data.
Lattice Perturbation Theory in Noncommutative Geometry and Parity Anomaly in 3D Noncommutative QED

description: We formulate lattice perturbation theory for gauge theories in noncommutative geometry. We apply it to three-dimensional noncommutative QED and calculate the effective action induced by Dirac fermions. In particular "parity invariance" of a massless theory receives an anomaly expressed by the noncommutative Chern-Simons action. The coefficient of the anomaly is labelled by an integer depending on the lattice action, which is a noncommutative counterpart of the phenomenon known in the commutative theory. The parity anomaly can also be obtained using Ginsparg-Wilson fermions, where the masslessness is guaranteed at finite lattice spacing. This suggests a natural definition of the lattice-regularized Chern-Simons theory on a noncommutative torus, which could enable nonperturbative studies of quantum Hall systems.

description: Engaging in sports among student athletes is crucial as it fosters physical health, cultivates essential life skills and character traits such as discipline, resilience, teamwork, and time management, promotes social interaction, leadership abilities, and self-confidence (Wu et al., 2023; Zhang et al., 2024). The exploration of lived experiences among diverse stakeholders in athletic events provides valuable insights into the multifaceted dynamics of sports participation. This study delved into the lived experiences of athletes, coaches, technical officials, and school officials participating in the Region 1 Athletic Association (R1AA) event from DepEd-Ilocos Sur, with a focus on the support structures and resources available to them. Employing a phenomenological approach, this study engages in qualitative interviews with participants from various roles within the R1AA event. Participants include athletes, coaches, technical officials, and school officials providing a comprehensive understanding of the lived experiences within the athletic context. The thematic analysis of participant narratives from the R1AA event revealed seven key themes encompassing personal growth, accommodation adaptation, health and security, food, and refreshment, fun and excitement, overall management, and takeaways. Participants highlighted significant personal growth, adapting to accommodation, emphasizing health and security, benefiting from nutritious meals, enjoying fun activities, appreciating effective event management, and reflecting on lasting takeaways, aligning with research on sports' positive impacts. The comprehensive understanding of these themes underscores the importance of holistic support and effective management in optimizing the sports event experience for participants, with potential implications for future event planning and athlete development programs.

description: We consider the time evolution of nonequilibrium quantum scalar fields in the O(N) model, using the next-to-leading order 1/N expansion of the 2PI effective action. A comparison with exact numerical simulations in 1+1 dimensions in the classical limit shows that the 1/N expansion gives quantitatively precise results already for moderate values of N. For sufficiently high initial occupation numbers the time evolution of quantum fields is shown to be accurately described by classical physics. Eventually the correspondence breaks down due to the difference between classical and quantum thermal equilibrium.

Gravitational Lensing of Gravitational Waves: Rotation of Polarization Plane

description: Similar to the light, gravitational waves traveling in multiple paths may arrive at the same location if there is a gravitational lens on their way. Apart from the magnification of the amplitudes and the time delay between the gravitational wave rays, gravitational lensing also rotates their polarization planes. This results in the changes in the antenna pattern function, which describes the response of the detector to its relative orientation to the gravitational wave. These effects are all reflected in the strain, the signal registered by the interferometers. The gravitational wave rays in various directions stimulate different strains. Their strains differ from each other due to different magnification factors, the phases and the rotation of the polarization plane. The phase difference mainly comes from the time delay. Moreover, the rotation of the polarization plane seemingly introduces the \textit{apparent} vector polarizations, when these strains are compared with each other. Because of the smallness of the deflection angles, the effect of the rotation is negligible.

description: Cancer-secreted exosomes are emerging mediators of cancer-associated cachexia. Here, we show that miR-155 secreted by breast cancer cells is a potent role on the catabolism of adipocytes and muscle cells through targeting the PPARγ. After cocultivated with mature adipocytes or C2C12, tumour cells exhibit an aggressive phenotype via inducing epithelial-mesenchymal transition while breast cancer-derived exosomes increased catabolism and release the metabolites in adipocytes and muscle cells. In adipocytes, cancer cell-secreted miR-155 promotes beige/brown differentiation and remodel metabolism in resident adipocytes by downregulating the PPARγ expression, but does not significantly affect biological conversion in C2C12. Likewise, propranolol ameliorates tumour exosomes-associated cachectic wasting through upregulating the PPARγ expression. In summary, we have demonstrated that the transfer of miR-155 from exosomes acts as an oncogenic signal reprograming systemic energy metabolism and leading to cancer-associated cachexia in breast cancer.

description: A brief overview of the lattice technique of studying QCD is presented. Recent results from the UKQCD Collaboration's simulations with dynamical quarks are then presented. In this work, the calculations are all at a fixed lattice spacing and volume, but varying sea quark mass from infinite (corresponding to the quenched simulation) down to roughly that of the strange quark mass. The main aim of this work is to uncover dynamical quark effects from these ``matched'' ensembles.
