description: Raman spectroscopy is used to study magnetic excitations in the quasi one dimensional $S=1/2$ quantum spin systems Cu(Qnx)(Cl$_{1-x}$Br$_x$)$_2$. The low energy spectrum is found to be dominated by a two-magnon continuum as expected from the numerical calculations for the Heisenberg spin ladder model. The continuum shifts to higher energies as more Br is introduced. The cutoff of the scattering increases faster than the onset indicating that the increase of exchange constant along the leg is the main effect on the magnetic properties. The upper and lower continuum thresholds are measured as a function of Br content across the entire range and compared to estimates based on previous bulk studies. We observe small systematic deviations that are discussed.

description: Based on an earlier introduced new class of generalized gravity-matter models defined in terms of two independent non-Riemannian volume forms (alternative generally covariant integration measure densities) on the space-time manifold, we derive an effective "Einstein-frame" theory featuring the following remarkable properties: (i) We obtain effective potential for the cosmological scalar field possessing two infinitely large flat regions which allows for a unified description of both early universe inflation as well as of present dark energy epoch; (ii) For a specific parameter range the model possesses a non-singular stable "emergent universe" solution which describes an initial phase of evolution that precedes the inflationary phase.

description: Based on photochromism of a diarylethene species, we introduced an easy but highly effective bar-coating method of a photochromic ink including shell type of photochromic pigments and UV curable epoxy resin, reversibly presenting change color in response to ultraviolet (UV) light. By using mask patterns for bar-coating, different patterns were successfully coated on various types of surfaces such as wood, glass, general concrete wall and even curved surfaces. Besides, in order to increase mechanical stability of the coating, thin layer including acrylate chemicals is further coated on the patterns. Finally, camouflage coating applications for encryption display films were successfully demonstrated.

description: We derive an integral expression for the leading-order type I-I-I three-point functions in the $\mathfrak{su}(2) $-sector of $\mathcal{N}=4$ super Yang-Mills theory, for which no determinant formula is known. To this end, we first map the problem to the partition function of the six vertex model with a hexagonal boundary. The advantage of the six-vertex model expression is that it reveals an extra symmetry of the problem, which is the invariance under 90$^{\circ}$ rotation. On the spin-chain side, this corresponds to the exchange of the quantum space and the auxiliary space and is reminiscent of the mirror transformation employed in the worldsheet S-matrix approaches. After the rotation, we then apply Sklyanin's separation of variables (SoV) and obtain a multiple-integral expression of the three-point function. The resulting integrand is expressed in terms of the so-called Baxter polynomials, which is closely related to the quantum spectral curve approach. Along the way, we also derive several new results about the SoV, such as the explicit construction of the basis with twisted boundary conditions and the overlap between the orginal SoV state and the SoV states on the subchains.

description: The present Letter describes the magnetocaloric effect of a diamagnetic material with a magnetic field $B_\parallel$ along the $z$ axis and a transversal and oscillating field $B_\perp (\ll B_\parallel)$ parallel to the $x-y$ plane. We show that the magnetocaloric potentials due to a change in $B_\parallel$ is the same as those due to a change in the frequency of $B_\perp$. These results raise the possibility of building magnetocaloric devices without moving parts, since changing frequency is a simple electronic issue, while changing the field from permanent magnets depends on mechanical aspects.

Effects of Modal Dispersion on Few Photon - Qubit Scattering in One-Dimensional Waveguides

description: We study one- and two-photon scattering from a qubit embedded in a one-dimensional waveguide in the presence of modal dispersion. We use a resolvent based analysis and utilize techniques borrowed from the Lee model studies. Modal dispersion leads to atom-photon bound states which necessitate the use of multichannel scattering theory. We present multichannel scattering matrix elements in terms of the solution of a Fredholm integral equation of the second kind. Through the use of the Lippmann-Schwinger equation, we derive an infinite series of Feynman diagrams that represent the solution to the integral equation. We use the Feynman diagrams as vertex correction terms to come up with closed form formulas that successfully predict the trapping rate of a photon in the atom-photon bound state. We verify our formalism through Krylov-subspace based numerical studies with pulsed excitations. Our results provide the tools to calculate the complex correlations between scattered photons in a dispersive environment.

description: Apoptotic cell death is critical for the early development of the nervous system, but once the nervous system is established, the apoptotic pathway becomes highly restricted in mature neurons. However, the mechanisms underlying this increased resistance to apoptosis in these mature neurons are not completely understood. We have previously found that members of the miR-29 family of microRNAs (miRNAs) are induced with neuronal maturation and that overexpression of miR-29 was sufficient to restrict apoptosis in neurons. To determine whether endogenous miR-29 alone was responsible for the inhibition of cytochrome c release in mature neurons, we examined the status of the apoptotic pathway in sympathetic neurons deficient for all three miR-29 family members. Unexpectedly, we found that the apoptotic pathway remained largely restricted in miR-29-deficient mature neurons. We therefore probed for additional mechanisms by which mature neurons resist apoptosis. We identify miR-24 as another miRNA that is upregulated in the maturing cerebellum and sympathetic neurons that can act redundantly with miR-29 by targeting a similar repertoire of pro-death BH3-only genes. These results reveal that mature neurons engage redundant brakes to restrict the apoptotic pathway and ensure their long-term survival.

description: Light beams having a vectorial field structure - or polarization - that varies over the transverse profile and a central optical singularity are called vector-vortex (VV) beams and may exhibit specific properties, such as focusing into "light needles" or rotation invariance, with applications ranging from microscopy and light trapping to communication and metrology. Individual photons in such beams exhibit a form of single-particle quantum entanglement between different degrees of freedom. On the other hand, the quantum states of two photons can be also entangled with each other. Here we combine these two concepts and demonstrate the generation of quantum entanglement between two photons that are both in VV states - a new form of quantum "entangled entanglement". This result may lead to quantum-enhanced applications of VV beams as well as to quantum-information protocols fully exploiting the vectorial features of light.
Cell cycle proliferation decisions: the impact of single cell analyses

description: Cell proliferation is a fundamental requirement for organismal development and homeostasis. The mammalian cell division cycle is tightly controlled to ensure complete and precise genome duplication and segregation of replicated chromosomes to daughter cells. The onset of DNA replication marks an irreversible commitment to cell division, and the accumulated efforts of many decades of molecular and cellular studies have probed this cellular decision, commonly called the restriction point. Despite a long-standing conceptual framework of the restriction point for progression through G1 phase into S phase or exit from G1 phase to quiescence (G0), recent technical advances in quantitative single cell analysis of mammalian cells have provided new insights. Significant intercellular heterogeneity revealed by single cell studies and the discovery of discrete subpopulations in proliferating cultures suggests the need for an even more nuanced understanding of cell proliferation decisions. In this review, we describe some of the recent developments in the cell cycle field made possible by quantitative single cell experimental approaches.

description: The observational evidence that Super-Massive Black Holes ($M_{\bullet} \sim 10^{9-10} \, \mathrm{M_{\odot}}$) are already in place less than $1 \, \mathrm{Gyr}$ after the Big Bang poses stringent time constraints on the growth efficiency of their seeds. Among proposed possibilities, the formation of massive ($\sim 10^{3-6} \, \mathrm{M_{\odot}}$) seeds and/or the occurrence of super-Eddington ($\dot{M}>\dot{M}_{Edd}$) accretion episodes may contribute to the solution of this problem. In this work we analytically and numerically investigate the accretion flow onto high-redshift ($z \sim 10$) black holes to understand the physical requirements favoring rapid and efficient growth. Our model identifies a "feeding-dominated" accretion regime and a "feedback-limited" one, the latter being characterized by intermittent (duty cycles ${\cal D} \lesssim 0.5$) and inefficient growth, with recurring outflow episodes. We find that low-mass seeds ($\lesssim 10^{3-4} \, \mathrm{M_{\odot}}$) evolve in the feedback-limited regime, while more massive seeds ($\gtrsim 10^{5-6} \, \mathrm{M_{\odot}}$) grow very rapidly as they are found in the feeding-dominated regime. In addition to the standard accretion model with a fixed matter-energy conversion factor ($ε= 0.1$), we have also explored slim disk models, appropriate for super-Eddington accretion, where radiation is trapped in the disk and the radiative efficiency is reduced ($ε\lesssim 0.04$), which may ensure a continuous growth with $\dot{M} \gg \dot{M}_{Edd}$ (up to $\sim 300\dot{M}_{Edd}$ in our simulations). Under these conditions, outflows play a negligible role and a black hole can accrete $80\%-100\%$ of the gas mass of the host halo ($\sim 10^7 \, \mathrm{M_{\odot}}$) in $\sim 10 \, \mathrm{Myr}$, while in feedback-limited systems we predict that black holes can accrete only up to $\sim 15\%$ of the available mass.

Cyclic diguanylate signaling in Gram-positive bacteria
Creators: name: Purcell, Erin B.
name: Tamayo, Rita
Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: The nucleotide second messenger 3′-5′ cyclic diguanylate monophosphate (c-di-GMP) is a central regulator of the transition between motile and non-motile lifestyles in bacteria, favoring sessility. Most research investigating the functions of c-di-GMP has focused on Gram-negative species, especially pathogens. Recent work in Gram-positive species has revealed that c-di-GMP plays similar roles in Gram-positives, though the precise targets and mechanisms of regulation may differ. The majority of bacterial life exists in a surface-associated state, with motility allowing bacteria to disseminate and colonize new environments. c-di-GMP signaling regulates flagellum biosynthesis and production of adherence factors and appears to be a primary mechanism by which bacteria sense and respond to surfaces. Ultimately, c-di-GMP influences the ability of a bacterium to alter its transcriptional program, physiology and behavior upon surface contact. This review discusses how bacteria are able to sense a surface via flagella and type IV pili, and the role of c-di-GMP in regulating the response to surfaces, with emphasis on studies of Gram-positive bacteria.

Profiling the metabolic signals involved in chemical communication between microbes using imaging mass spectrometry

Publisher: name: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill University Libraries
Year: 2016

description: The ability of microbes to secrete bioactive chemical signals into their environment has been known for over a century. However, it is only in the last decade that imaging mass spectrometry has provided us with the ability to directly visualize the spatial distributions of these microbial metabolites. This technology involves collecting mass spectra from multiple discrete locations across a biological sample, yielding chemical ‘maps’ that simultaneously reveal the distributions of hundreds of metabolites in two dimensions. Advances in microbial imaging mass spectrometry summarized here have included the identification of novel strain- or coculture-specific compounds, the visualization of biotransformation events (where one metabolite is converted into another by a neighboring microbe), and the implementation of a method to reconstruct the 3D subsurface distributions of metabolites, among others. Here we review the recent literature and discuss how imaging mass spectrometry has spurred novel insights regarding the chemical consequences of microbial interactions.

description: Polarized cross-correlation spectroscopy on a quantum dot charged with a single hole shows the sequential emission of photons with common circular polarization. This effect is visible without magnetic field, but becomes more pronounced as the field along the quantization axis is increased. We interpret the data in terms of electron dephasing in the X+ state caused by the Overhauser field of nuclei in the dot. We predict the correlation timescale can be increased by accelerating the emission rate with cavity-QED.

description: Ultra high energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) probably originate in extreme conditions in which extra dimension effects might be important. In this paper we calculate the correction in black hole accretion mechanisms due to extra dimension effects in the static and rotating cases. A parametrization of the external Kerr horizons in both cases is presented and analysed. We use previous calculations of upper limits on the UHECR flux to set limits on the UHECR production efficiency of nine sources. The upper limit on the UHECR luminosity calculation is based on GeV-TeV gamma-ray measurements. The total luminosity due to the accretion mechanism is compared to the upper limit on UHECRs. The dependence of the UHECR production efficiency upper limit on black hole mass is also presented and discussed

description: Gyrochronology is a technique that uses rotation periods to infer stellar ages. However, the existing calibrators are mostly limited to young (< 2 Gyr) clusters. Novel constraints are needed at older ages. We enlighten this by using field wide binaries with main- sequence (MS) primaries and white dwarfs (WD) companions. We use binaries identified from Gaia data (Fig. 1), where the ages of the WDs are known from stellar modeling, and we assign them to their MS companions. To obtain new gyrochronology constraints, we aim to measure the rotation periods of the MS components by analyzing light curves from the TESS mission (Fig. 2). From our sample of over ~ 3,500 binaries, ~1/3 of the MS stars have at least 1 TESS sector of data. Our preliminary results illustrate that wide binaries have the potential to fill in unexplored domains in age-rotation relations. (Fig. 3). Our current research is focused on expanding the sample, particularly at longer periods and old ages.

description: We evaluate the neutron electric dipole moment $\vert \vec{d}_N\vert$ using lattice QCD techniques. The gauge configurations analyzed are produced by the European Twisted Mass Collaboration using $N_f{=}2{+}1{+}1$ twisted mass fermions at one value of the lattice spacing of $a \simeq 0.082 \ {\rm fm}$ and a light quark mass corresponding to $m_π \simeq 373 \ {\rm MeV}$. Our approach to extract the neutron electric dipole moment is based on the calculation of the $CP$-odd electromagnetic form factor $F_3(Q^2)$ for small values of the vacuum angle $θ$ in the limit of zero Euclidean momentum transfer $Q^2$. The limit $Q^2 \to 0$ is realized either by adopting a parameterization of the momentum dependence of $F_3(Q^2)$ and performing a fit, or by employing new position space methods, which involve the elimination of the kinematical momentum factor in front of $F_3(Q^2)$. The computation in the presence of a $CP$-violating term requires the evaluation of the topological charge ${\cal Q}$. This is computed by applying the cooling technique and the gradient flow with three different actions, namely the Wilson, the Symanzik tree-level improved and the Iwasaki action. We demonstrate that cooling and gradient flow give equivalent results for the neutron electric dipole moment. Our analysis yields a value of $\vert \vec{d}_N\vert=0.045(6)(1)\ \barθ \ e \cdot {\rm fm}$ for the ensemble with $m_π=373$ MeV considered.

description: Nearby open clusters play a benchmark role in the observations related to the fundamental astrophysical processes, such as formation and evolution of stars and their planets. We used Gaia DR3 catalogue to place stars in the position-velocity space and re-evaluated memberships of young (<1Gyr) open clusters in the vicinity of the Sun (<500 pc). We re-examined their relative ages revealed from their colour-magnitude diagrams and rotation periods from the TESS data. This enables us to study the evolution of the luminosity function over time and speculate about the gradual evaporation and dispersal of their members into the Galactic disk.
 With the goal to make these results widely available to the professional and amateur communities, we are building a website with our catalogues of cluster members linked to Aladin and CDS virtual observatory tools. An interactive plots of our members offer an opportunity for users to create their personalised 3D plots and colour-colour diagrams.

description: We link the FDR treatment of ultraviolet (UV) divergences to dimensional regularization up to two loops in QCD. This allows us to derive the one-loop and two-loop coupling constant and quark mass shifts necessary to translate infrared finite quantities computed in FDR to the MSbar renormalization scheme. As a by-product of our analysis, we solve a problem analogous to the breakdown of unitarity in the Four Dimensional Helicity (FDH) method beyond one loop. A fix to FDH is then presented that preserves the renormalizability properties of QCD without introducing evanescent quantities.

description: In this paper, the authors introduce the issue of institution as a factor of considerable significance. Based on field investigation and historical geography analysis, inquiring port plans, policy documents, laws and regulations as the basic historical data, the authors try to review the process of developing Wusong Port in the twentieth century and analyse the dynamic mechanism of its evolution from the perspective of institutional changes. The first section of this paper provides an overview of the development trajectory of Wusong Port, which focuses on its functions and locations changes. The second section briefly discusses the shifting power network that had historically governed the port and analyses relationship between the port and the city. The impact of administrative zoning adjustment is particularly mentioned, since the changes of the function of Wusong port were always accompanied by it. The third section explores the planning of the Wusong port in different historical periods. This article provides evidence that government-led port exploitation plays a great role in the fundamental change of Wusong Port -- from a naval port, to a commercial port, to an industrial port, and finally an international cruise port.

description: Low-mass X-ray binaries (LMXB) are stellar systems where a compact object accretes mass from a low-mass (≲1M⊙) donor star. A subclass, so-called transients, spend most of their lives in a dim, quiescent state. However, these systems go into sporadic, powerful outbursts produced by one of the most energetic process in the Universe: accretion. The accretion flow has been found to be strongly coupled to the presence of outflows (radio-jets, hot X-ray winds and the recently discovered cold, optical winds), which is a fundamental characteristic of their outbursts. Thus, the study of these winds can provide us with crucial information about accretion processes in the Universe. In this poster, we present the case of one LMXB transient that has recently shown signatures of accretion disc winds in their optical spectra, MAXI J1348–630.
(Nearly) optimal P-values for all Bell inequalities

description: A key objective in conducting a Bell test is to quantify the statistical evidence against a local-hidden variable model (LHVM) given that we can collect only a finite number of trials in any experiment. The notion of statistical evidence is thereby formulated in the framework of hypothesis testing, where the null hypothesis is that the experiment can be described by an LHVM. The statistical confidence with which the null hypothesis of an LHVM is rejected is quantified by the so-called P-value, where a smaller P-value implies higher confidence. Establishing good statistical evidence is especially challenging if the number of trials is small, or the Bell violation very low. Here, we derive the optimal P-value for a large class of Bell inequalities. What's more, we obtain very sharp upper bounds on the P-value for all Bell inequalities. These values are easily computed from experimental data, and are valid even if we allow arbitrary memory in the devices. Our analysis is able to deal with imperfect random number generators, and event-ready schemes, even if such a scheme can create different kinds of entangled states. Finally, we review requirements for sound data collection, and a method for combining P-values of independent Bell experiments.

description: Prospects for reaching persistent entanglement between two spatially separated atomic Bose-Einstein condensates are outlined. The system set-up comprises of two condensates loaded in an optical lattice, which, in return, is confined within a high-Q optical resonator. The system is driven by an external laser that illuminates the atoms such that photons can scatter into the cavity. In the superradiant phase a cavity field is established and we show that the emerging cavity mediated interactions between the two condensates is capable of entangling them despite photon losses. This macroscopic atomic entanglement is sustained throughout the time-evolution apart from occasions of sudden deaths/births. Using an auxiliary photon mode and coupling it to a collective quadrature of the two condensates we demonstrate that the auxiliary mode's squeezing is proportional to the atomic entanglement and as such it can serve as a probe field of the macroscopic entanglement.

description: One of the crucial keys in the cosmological studies is the estimation of an accuracy redshift of a large number of galaxies.
 The selection of spectroscopic training sample is one of the most important features to obtain a precise photo-zs. Unfortunately, the science samples may contain deeper magnitudes that are not well represented in the spectroscopic samples. These differences raise doubts about the confidence of the photomectric redshift provided by the algorithms.
 DNF is a nearest neighbor algorithm for determing the photometric redshift. We present the effects to train this algorithm with an incomplete sample. We provide a method to detect and measure the incompleteness. We apply this method to the Y3 DES Deep Fields catalogue and compare the results with those obtained from template approaches.
