description: Das Edge-to-Edge-Verfahren hat sich inzwischen für die Behandlung der hochgradigen Mitralklappeninsuffizienz (MI) bei Hochrisikopatienten etabliert. Durch die flächendeckende Anwendung der 3D-Echokardiographie konnte die Qualität der vorwiegend Echo-gesteuerten Prozedur nachhaltig gebessert werden. Das in dieser Arbeit beschriebene 3D-Verfahren zur direkten Darstellung der zwischen Clip-Armen und Grippern fixierten Segel unmittelbar nach Clip-Implantation könnte zu einer Reduktion von clip detachments insbesondere bei suboptimalen anatomischen Bedingungen führen. Das Edge-to-Edge-Verfahren wird inzwischen insbesondere bei Hochrisikopatienten mit hochgradiger MI angwendet. Dabei wurden die initial definierten Kritierien für die technische Machbarkeit zunehmend erweitert. Sowohl Patienten mit komplexer degenerativer als auch funktioneller MI können erfolgreich mit diesem Verfahren behandelt werden. Auch Patienten mit Herzinsuffizienz im Endstadium können erfolgreich behandelt werden. Gerade Patienten mit höchstgradig eingeschränkter LVEF (<20%) scheinen jedoch trotz Behandlung eine sehr hohe Mortalität aufzuweisen. Wichtige prognostische Faktoren scheinen dabei das Vorhandensein einer pulmonalen Hypertonie sowie eine eingeschränkte rechtsventrikuläre Funktion zu sein. Einzelne Fälle der linksventrikulären Thrombenbildung in dieser Patientenpopulation wurden hier beschrieben, was bei der Wahl der postinterventionellen antithrombozytären Therapie bzw. Antikoagulation berücksichtig werden sollte. Aufgrund dieser Daten sollten diese Patienten wenn möglich frühzeitig für eine Herztransplantation oder eine Assist-Device-Implantation evaluiert werden. Das Vorhandensein einer hochgradigen Trikuspidalklappeninsuffizienz (TI) geht mit einer erhöhten Morbidität und Mortalität einher. Da ein Großteil dieser Patienen als inoperabel eingestuft wird, gibt es einen großen Bedarf an interventionellen Therapieoptionen. Das Edge-to-Edge-Verfahren kann in diesem Zusammenhang auch zur Behandlung der hochgradigen TI angewendet werden. Mit Hilfe eine modifizierten Steuerungstechnik konnten vielversprechende initiale klinische Ergebnisse hinsichtlich Effektivität und Sicherheit erzielt werden. Weitere prospektive Studien werden die Rolle dieses Verfahrens bei der Behandlung der hochgradigen TI bei Hochrisikopatienten klären.

description: Indoor microbial diversity and composition are suggested to affect the prevalence and severity of asthma. In this study, we collected floor dust and environmental characteristics from 21 classrooms, and health data related to asthma symptoms from 309 students, in junior high schools in Johor Bahru, Malaysia. Bacterial and fungal composition was characterized by sequencing 16s rRNA gene and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region, and the absolute microbial concentration was quantified by qPCR. In total, 326 bacterial and 255 fungal genera were characterized. Five bacterial (Sphingobium, Rhodomicrobium, Shimwellia, Solirubrobacter, Pleurocapsa) and two fungal (Torulaspora and Leptosphaeriaceae) taxa were protective for asthma severity. Two bacterial taxa, Izhakiella and Robinsoniella, were positively associated with asthma severity. Several protective bacterial taxa including Rhodomicrobium, Shimwellia and Sphingobium has been reported as protective microbes in previous studies, whereas other taxa were first time reported. Environmental characteristics, such as age of building, size of textile curtain per room volume, occurrence of cockroaches, concentration of house dust mite allergens transferred from homes by the occupants, were involved in shaping the overall microbial community but not asthma-associated taxa; whereas visible dampness and mold, which did not change the overall microbial community for floor dust, decreased the concentration of protective bacteria Rhodomicrobium (\b{eta}=-2.86, p=0.021) of asthma, indicating complex interactions between microbes, environmental characteristics and asthma symptoms. Overall, this is the first indoor microbiome study to characterize the asthma-associated microbes and their environmental determinant in tropical area, promoting the understanding of microbial exposure and respiratory health in this region.

description: The constants of motion of the following systems are deduced: a relativistic particle with linear dissipation, a no-relativistic particle with a time explicitly depending force, a no-relativistic particle with a constant force and time depending mass, and a relativistic particle under a conservative force with position depending mass. The problem of getting the Hamiltonian for these systems is determined by getting the velocity as an explicit function of position and generalized linear momentum, and this problem can be solved a first approximation for the first above system.

description: A nonlinear analytical model for the pressure dynamics in a vacuum chamber, pumped with a sputter ion pump (SIP), is proposed, discussed and experimentally evaluated. The model describes the physics of the pumping mechanism of SIPs in the context of a cold-atom experiment. By using this model, we fit pump-down curves of our vacuum system to extract the relevant physical parameters characterizing its pressure dynamics. The aim of this investigation is the optimization of cold-atom experiments in terms of reducing the dead time for quantum sensing using atom interferometry. We develop a calibration method to improve the precision in pressure measurements via the ion current in SIPs. Our method is based on a careful analysis of the gas conductance and pumping in order to reliably link the pressure readings at the SIP with the actual pressure in the vacuum (science) chamber. Our results are in agreement with the existence of essentially two pumping regimes determined by the pressure level in the system. In particular, we find our results in agreement with the well-known fact that for a given applied voltage, at low pressures, the discharge current efficiently sputters pumping material from the pump's electrodes. This process sets the leading pumping mechanism in this limit. At high pressures, the discharge current drops and the pumping is mainly performed by the already sputtered material.
The systematically varying stellar IMF

description: Some ultra-compact dwarf galaxies have large dynamical mass to light (M/L) ratios and also appear to contain an overabundance of LMXB sources, and some Milky Way globular clusters have a low concentration and appear to have a deficit of low-mass stars. These observations can be explained if the stellar IMF becomes increasingly top-heavy with decreasing metallicity and increasing gas density of the forming object. The thus constrained stellar IMF then accounts for the observed trend of metallicity and M/L ratio found amongst M31 globular star clusters. It also accounts for the overall shift of the observationally deduced galaxy-wide IMF from top-light to top-heavy with increasing star formation rate amongst galaxies. If the IMF varies similarly to deduced here, then extremely young very massive star-burst clusters observed at a high redshift would appear quasar-like (Jerabkova et al. 2017) .

description: The use of one or more gold nanoballs as reference objects for Fourier Transform holography (FTH) is analysed using experimental soft X-ray diffraction from objects consisting of separated clusters of these balls. The holograms are deconvoluted against ball reference objects to invert to images, in combination with a Wiener filter to control noise. A resolution of ~30nm, smaller than one ball, is obtained even if a large cluster of balls is used as the reference, giving the best resolution yet obtained by X-ray FTH. Methods of dealing with missing data due to a beamstop are discussed. Practical prepared objects which satisfy the FTH condition are suggested, and methods of forming them described.

description: We present observations of the dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 4449 at 850 $μ$m and 450 $μ$m obtained with SCUBA at the JCMT. The distribution of the cold dust agrees well with that of the CO and H$α$ emission. To explain the integrated mm- through far-infrared continuum spectrum three dust components are required, with temperatures of 16 K, 39 K and 168 K, respectively. The dust mass is dominated by the cold dust component; we derive a total dust mass of \~3.8 x10^6 Msun, and with the local gas-to-dust ratio of ~130 a total gas mass of M(HI+H_2}~4.9 x 10^8 Msun. Comparison with the HI mass leads to a total molecular gas mass of ~3.4 x 10^8 Msun. We derive a conversion factor of the CO line intensity to molecular hydrogen column density XCO = N(H_2)/I(CO) which is at least 11 times larger than the Galactic value. These values are in accord with the lower metallicity of NGC 4449.

A study of defect-based error estimates for the Krylov approximation of $φ$-functions
Creators: name: Jawecki, Tobias
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Numerical Analysis (math.NA)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: Prior recent work, devoted to the study of polynomial Krylov techniques for the approximation of the action of the matrix exponential ${\rm e}^{tA}v$, is extended to the case of associated $φ$-functions (which occur within the class of exponential integrators). In particular, a~posteriori error bounds and estimates, based on the notion of the defect (residual) of the Krylov approximation are considered. Computable error bounds and estimates are discussed and analyzed. This includes a new error bound which favorably compares to existing error bounds in specific cases. The accuracy of various error bounds is characterized in relation to corresponding Ritz values of $A$. Ritz values yield properties of the spectrum of $A$ (specific properties are known a~priori, e.g. for Hermitian or skew-Hermitian matrices) in relation to the actual starting vector $v$ and can be computed. This gives theoretical results together with criteria to quantify the achieved accuracy on the run. For other existing error estimates the reliability and performance is studied by similar techniques. Effects of finite precision (floating point arithmetic) are also taken into account.

We discuss the case of extended time-delay autosynchronization (ETDAS) and show that nontrivial qualitative features of the domain of control observed in experiments can be explained by taking into account the effects of both the unstable eigenmode and a single stable eigenmode in the Floquet theory.

Subjects: subject: Materials Science (cond-mat.mtrl-sci)

description: In this work we reexamine the LDA+U method of Anisimov and coworkers in the framework of a plane-wave pseudopotential approach. A simplified rotational-invariant formulation is adopted. The calculation of the Hubbard U entering the expression of the functional is discussed and a linear response approach is proposed that is internally consistent with the chosen definition for the occupation matrix of the relevant localized orbitals. In this way we obtain a scheme whose functionality should not depend strongly on the particular implementation of the model in ab-initio calculations. We demonstrate the accuracy of the method, computing structural and electronic properties of a few systems including transition and rare-earth correlated metals, transition metal monoxides and iron-silicate.

description: We present results of timing observations of the 143-ms pulsar J0538+2817 that provide a proper motion measurement which clearly associates the pulsar with the supernova remnant S147. We measure a proper motion of 67$_{-22}^{+48}$ mas yr$^{-1}$, implying a transverse velocity of $v= 385^{+260}_{-130}$ km s$^{-1}$. We derive an age of the pulsar and S147 of only $30\pm4$ kyr which is a factor of 20 times less than the pulsar's characteristic age of $τ_c = 620$ kyr. This age implies an initial spin period of $P_0=139$ ms, close to the present pulse period and a factor of several larger than what is usually inferred for birth periods. Implications for recent X-ray detections of this pulsar are discussed.

description: Synchrotron X-ray diffraction measurements have been conducted on aqueous mixtures of propan-2-ol (a.k.a. isopropanol, or 2-propanol), for alcohol contents between 10 and 90 molar %, from room temperature down to 230 K. Molecular dynamics simulations, by using an all-atom parametrization of the propan-2-ol molecule and the well-known TIP4P/2005 water model, were able to provide semi-quantitative descriptions of the measured total structure factors. Various quantities related to hydrogen bonding, like hydrogen bond numbers, size distribution of cyclic entities and cluster size distributions, have been determined from the particle co-ordinates obtained from the simulations. The percolation threshold at room temperature could be estimated to be between isopropanol concentrations of 62 and 74 molar %, whereas at very low temperature, calculations yielded a value above 90 molar %.
On Breaking Time Reversal in a Simple, Smooth, Chaotic System

description: Within random matrix theory, the statistics of the eigensolutions depend fundamentally on the presence (or absence) of time reversal symmetry. Accepting the Bohigas-Giannoni-Schmit conjecture, this statement extends to quantum systems with chaotic classical analogs. For practical reasons, much of the supporting numerical studies of symmetry breaking have been done with billiards or maps, and little with simple, smooth systems. There are two main difficulties in attempting to break time reversal invariance in a continuous time system with a smooth potential. The first is avoiding false symmetry breaking. The second is locating a parameter regime in which the symmetry breaking is strong enough to transition the fluctuation properties fully toward the broken symmetry case, and yet remain weak enough so as not to regularize the dynamics sufficiently that the system is no longer chaotic. We give an example of a system of two-coupled quartic oscillators whose energy level statistics closely match those of the Gaussian unitary ensemble, and which possesses only a minor proportion of regular motion in its phase space.

description: Biofilms offer an excellent example of ecological interaction among bacteria. Temporal and spatial oscillations in biofilms are an emerging topic. In this paper, we describe the metabolic oscillations in Bacillus subtilis biofilms by applying the smallest theoretical chemical reaction system showing Hopf bifurcation proposed by Wilhelm and Heinrich in 1995. The system involves three differential equations and a single bilinear term. We specifically select parameters that are suitable for the biological scenario of biofilm oscillations. We perform computer simulations and a detailed analysis of the system including bifurcation analysis and quasi-steady-state approximation. We also discuss the feedback structure of the system and the correspondence of the simulations to biological observations. Our theoretical work suggests potential scenarios about the oscillatory behaviour of biofilms and also serves as an application of a previously described chemical oscillator to a biological system.

Partial Covering Interpretation of the X-Ray Spectrum of the NLS1 1H 0707-495

description: The X-ray spectrum of 1H 0707-495 obtained with XMM-Newton showing a deep flux drop at ~7 keV (Boller et al. 2002) is studied based on the partial covering concept. The previously inferred extreme iron overabundance can be reduced down to ~3x solar if the hard component gradually steepens at high energies. The spectral shape supports that 1H 0707-495 is an AGN analogue of the galactic black-hole binaries in the soft state. Interpreting the soft excess as the emission from an optically-thick disk, the minimum black hole mass M is estimated to be 2 x 10^6 solar masses from the intrinsic luminosity corrected for partial covering. Based on the slim disk model, the observed disk temperature implies that the luminosity is close to the Eddington limit. The rapid and large flux variations with little change in the spectral shape can also be explained, if not all, as due to changes in the partial covering fraction. Partial covering may account for the large variability characteristics of NLS1.

description: Globular clusters (GCs) have been posited, alongside dwarf galaxies, as significant contributors to the field stellar population of the Galactic halo. In order to quantify their contribution, we examine the fraction of halo stars formed in stellar clusters in the suite of 25 present-day Milky Way-mass cosmological zoom simulations from the E-MOSAICS project. We find that a median of $2.3$ and $0.3$ per cent of the mass in halo field stars formed in clusters and GCs, defined as clusters more massive than $5\times 10^3$ and $10^5~M_{\odot}$, respectively, with the $25$-$75$th percentiles spanning $1.9$-$3.0$ and $0.2$-$0.5$ per cent being caused by differences in the assembly histories of the host galaxies. Under the extreme assumption that no stellar cluster survives to the present day, the mass fractions increase to a median of $5.9$ and $1.8$ per cent. These small fractions indicate that the disruption of GCs plays a sub-dominant role in the build-up of the stellar halo. We also determine the contributed halo mass fraction that would present signatures of light-element abundance variations considered to be unique to GCs, and find that clusters and GCs would contribute a median of $1.1$ and $0.2$ per cent, respectively. We estimate the contributed fraction of GC stars to the Milky Way halo, based on recent surveys, and find upper limits of $2$-$5$ per cent (significantly lower than previous estimates), suggesting that models other than those invoking strong mass loss are required to describe the formation of chemically enriched stellar populations in GCs.

Quarkonium measurements in nucleus-nucleus collisions with ALICE

description: Heavy quarks are produced in the early stages of nucleus-nucleus collisions and can therefore provide important insight into the Quark-Gluon Plasma (QGP). Quarkonia are proposed as crucial probes to study the QGP. The extent of the medium modification for heavy-quark quarkonium production in heavy-ion collisions is measured in terms of a nuclear modification factor $R_{\rm AA}$, defined as the quarkonium yield in heavy-ion collisions divided by the relative quarkonium cross section in pp collisions scaled by the nuclear overlap function. A possible path-length dependent quarkonium dissociation, as well as a contribution of (re-)generation of quarkonia from heavy quarks in the medium, would lead to an azimuthal anisotropy of quarkonium production relative to the reaction plane. In this contribution, the recent ALICE measurements of quarkonium in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}$ = 5.02 TeV will be discussed for both mid- and forward rapidity. The dependence of $R_{\rm AA}$ on centrality and $p_{\rm T}$ for J/$ψ$, $Υ$(1S), $Υ$(2S), as well as the J/$ψ$ elliptic flow $v_{2}$ will be shown. The experimental data and the current theoretical model calculations will be also discussed.

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Modular pairs of some second order q-difference equations are considered. These equations may be interpreted as a quantum mechanics of a sort of hyperelliptic pendulum. It is shown the quantization of a spectrum may be provided by the condition of the analyticity of the wave function. Baxter's t-Q equations for the quantum relativistic Toda chain in the ``strong coupling regime'' are related to the system considered, and the quantization condition for Q-operator is also considered.

description: Based on an extensive grid of stellar models between 13 and 25 Mo and a wide range of metallicities, we have studied the light curves of core collapse supernovae, their application to cosmology and evolutionary effects with redshift. The direct link between the hydro and radiation transport allows to calculate monochromatic light curves. With decreasing metallicity Z and increasing mass, progenitors tend to explode as compact Blue Supergiants and produce sub-luminous supernovae that are about 1.5 mag dimmer compared to "normal" SNe II with Red Supergiant progenitors (RSGs). Progenitors with small masses tend to explode as RSGs even at low Z. The consequences are obvious for probing the chemical evolution, namely, a strong bias when using the statistics of core collapse supernovae to probe the history of star formation. Our study is limited in scope with respect to the explosion energies and the production of radioactive Ni. Within the class of "extreme SNe II-P" supernovae, the light curves are rather insensitive with respect to the progenitor mass and explosion energy compared to analytic models which are based on parameterized stellar structures. We expect a wider range of brightness due to variations in Ni56 because radioactive energy is a main source of luminosity. However, the overall insensitivity of LCs may allow their use as quasi-standard candles for distance determination.

description: We study the pp limit of AdS(3) x S(3) at the interaction level. We find the interacting Hamiltonian for the bosonic fields of D=6 SUGRA in the pp-wave background, and compare it to the cubic couplings of the full AdS(3) x S(3). We show how the pp-wave theory vertex arises in the large J limit. Our analysis also provides some insight into the origin of specific prefactors which appear in the pp-wave interaction.

Relativity in Clifford's Geometric Algebras of Space and Spacetime

name: Sobczyk, Garret

Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)

description: Of the various formalisms developed to treat relativistic phenomena, those based on Clifford's geometric algebra are especially well adapted for clear geometric interpretations and computational efficiency. Here we study relationships between formulations of special relativity in the spacetime algebra (STA) Cl{1,3} of Minkowski space, and in the algebra of physical space (APS)Cl{3}. STA lends itself to an absolute formulation of relativity, in which paths, fields, and other physical properties have observer-independent representations. Descriptions in APS are related by a one-to-one mapping of elements from APS to the even subalgebra STA+ of STA. With this mapping, reversion in APS corresponds to hermitian conjugation in STA. The elements of STA+ are all that is needed to calculate physically measurable quantities because only they entail the observer dependence inherent in any physical measurement. As a consequence, every relativistic physical process that can be modeled in STA also has a representation in APS, and vice versa. In the presence of two or more inertial observers, two versions of APS present themselves. In the absolute version, both the mapping to STA+ and hermitian conjugation are observer dependent, and the proper basis vectors are persistent vectors that sweep out timelike planes. In the relative version, the mapping and hermitian conjugation are then the same for all observers. Relative APS gives a covariant representation of relativistic physics with spacetime multivectors represented by multiparavectors. We relate the two versions of APS as consistent models within the same algebra.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: Stable two- and three-dimensional spatiotemporal solitons (STSs) in second-harmonic-generating media are found in the case of normal dispersion at the second harmonic (SH). This result, surprising from the theoretical viewpoint, opens a way for experimental realization of STSs. An analytical estimate for the existence of STSs is derived, and full results, including a complete stability diagram, are obtained in a numerical form. STSs withstand not only the normal SH dispersion, but also finite walk-off between the harmonics, and readily self-trap from a Gaussian pulse launched at the fundamental frequency.

description: Software Engineering courses play an important role for preparing students with the right knowledge and attitude for software development in practice. The implication is far reaching, as the quality of the software that we use ultimately depends on the quality of the people that make them. Educating Software Engineering, however, is quite challenging, as the subject is not considered as most exciting by students, while teachers often have to deal with exploding number of students. The EU project IMPRESS seeks to explore the use of gamification in educating software engineering at the university level to improve students' engagement and hence their appreciation for the taught subjects. This paper presents the project, its objectives, and its current progress.
