description: We start developing a formalism which allows to construct supersymmetric theories systematically across space-time signatures. Our construction uses a complex form of the supersymmetry algebra, which is obtained by doubling the spinor representation. This allows one to partially disentangle the Lorentz and R-symmetry group and generalizes symplectic Majorana spinors. For the case where the spinor representation is complex-irreducible, the R-symmetry only acts on an internal multiplicity space, and we show that the connected groups which occur are SO(2), SO(1,1), SU(2) and SU(1,1). As an application we construct the off-shell supersymmetry transformations and supersymmetric Lagrangians for five-dimensional vector multiplets in arbitrary signature (t,s). In this case the R-symmetry groups are SU(2) or SU(1, 1), depending on whether the spinor representation carries a quaternionic or para-quaternionic structure. In Euclidean signature the scalar and vector kinetic terms differ by a relative sign, which is consistent with previous results in the literature and shows that this sign flip is an inevitable consequence of the Euclidean supersymmetry algebra.

description: We present an analysis of the evolution of the Ly alpha absorption lines in the redshift interval 0.0 to \sim 1.5 based upon a sample of 987 lines identified in the spectra of 63 QSOs obtained with the Faint Object Spectrograph on the Hubble Space Telescope. Fits to the number of absorbers per unit redshift dN/dz = A \times (1+z)^γyield values of γin the range 0.1 to 0.3, decidedly flatter than results from groundbased data pertaining to the redshift range z > 1.7. The combination of the space and groundbased data suggest a marked transition in the rate of evolution of the Ly alpha lines at a redshift of about 1.7. The distribution in redshift is well represented by a power law and the distribution of equivalent widths above a rest equivalent width of 0.1 Åis fit well by an exponential. The sample of Ly alpha systems which has ions from heavy elements has a much larger value of γthan a sample of lines of comparable strength without heavy elements. We argue that this is not likely due to either line misidentification or incomplete spectral coverage and suggest that it is due to rapid evolution of the very highest column density systems, rather than differences in metallicity. We also find evidence that the rate of evolution increases with increasing equivalent width. We compare our results for the variation of line density with redshift to recent numerical simulations of Ly alpha absorbers, and find fairly good agreement. Our results for the stronger Ly alpha lines in our sample are compatible with the recent analysis of the absorber--galaxy correlation by Chen et al. 1998 but for the weaker lines our results suggest that the association between absorbers and galaxies is different from that for the stronger lines.

description: We investigate non-thermal electron and nuclei energy losses within the binary neutron star merger remnant produced by the event GW170817. The lack of a cooling feature within the detected synchrotron emission from the source is used to constrain the magnetic field at the mG level, assuming that this emission is electron synchrotron in origin, and that the accelerated spectrum in the electrons follows the form $dN/dE_e \propto E_e^{-2}$. The level of subsequent gamma-ray emission from the source is demonstrated to provide a further constraint on the source magnetic field strength. We also put forward alternative strong ($\sim$G) magnetic field scenarios able to support this emission. For such stronger fields, the photo-disintegration of non-thermal nuclei within the source is considered, and a bottleneck period of $\sim$5-30 days is found when this process peaks. We find that this class of source is in principle able to support the population of cosmic rays detected at Earth below the "ankle".

description: Some extreme weather events may be more likely to affect climate change beliefs than others, in part because schema individuals possess for different events could vary in encouraging such links. Using a representative sample of U.S. adults and geocoded National Weather Service data, we examine how a range of extreme weather event categories relate to climate change beliefs, and the degree to which individuals’ self-reported experiences are shaped by their political views across event types. For tornado, hurricane, and flood events, we find no link with beliefs. For polar vortex and drought events, we find that although self-reported experience is linked with climate beliefs, reporting of these experiences is influenced by political identity and partisan news exposure. These findings underscore a limited role for extreme weather experiences in climate beliefs, and show that events more open to interpretation, such as droughts and polar vortex disturbances, are most likely to be seen through a partisan lens.

Tectono-stratigraphic evolution of the eastern Mediterranean and the impact of the Messinian salinity crisis on the petroleum systems
Creators: name: Al-Balushi, Abdulaziz
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2014

description: A number of recent giant gas discoveries offshore Levant and in the Nile Delta have established the eastern Mediterranean as a major hydrocarbon province. Future exploration success will rely heavily on a detailed understanding of the regional tectonostratigraphic evolution of the basin. Critical inputs to reservoir, charge and trap modelling such as rifting age, rifting direction and the distribution of oceanic versus continental crust are poorly constrained. Additionally, the impact on the petroleum system of the sudden and significant drop in Mediterranean sea level during the Messinian Salinity Crisis in the Late Miocene, has been largely overlooked. In order to address these fundamental research issues, I conduct a detailed interpretation of an unprecedented coverage of regional two-dimensional (2D) deep reflection seismic lines from the eastern Mediterranean. Importantly, the structural and stratigraphic interpretation has been calibrated with borehole data from the margins of the basin. The seismic interpretation aims primarily to map the rifting direction and document key seismic observations that provide insights to the nature of the crust. A reverse subsidence modelling technique has been used to constrain the age of rifting using palaeo-water depth calibration data from both well data and seismic facies analysis. I also carried out flexural backstripping analysis and 2D petroleum system modelling to investigate the impact of the Messinian Salinity Crisis on the hydrocarbon habitat. The main conclusion of this study is that the eastern Mediterranean opened in response to Early-to-Mid Jurassic, NW-SE directed extension along a series of NE-SW trending normal and NW-SE trending transfer faults. The majority of the basin is predicted to be underlain by highly extended continental crust except offshore northern Levant where evidence suggests a remnant of neo-Tethyan oceanic crust is preserved to the south of the Cyprus subduction zone. The result also predicts that the Messinian Salinity Crisis was associated with a ca. 2070 m drop in sea level. This likely encouraged salt deposition producing a pronounced effect on the basin morphology and subsurface pressure and temperature equilibrium conditions. The 2D petroleum system model predicts that changes in pore pressure will lead to hydrocarbon phase changes within reservoir intervals. The impact of this phase change on the pre-existing hydrocarbon accumulations is controlled by the charge, trap size and the seal parameters - which in the worst case can lead to catastrophic trap integrity failure.

description: The dynamics in three-dimensional billiards leads, using a Poincaré section, to a four-dimensional map which is challenging to visualize. By means of the recently introduced 3D phase-space slices an intuitive representation of the organization of the mixed phase space with regular and chaotic dynamics is obtained. Of particular interest for applications are constraints to classical transport between different regions of phase space which manifest in the statistics of Poincaré recurrence times. For a 3D paraboloid billiard we observe a slow power-law decay caused by long-trapped trajectories which we analyze in phase space and in frequency space. Consistent with previous results for 4D maps we find that: (i) Trapping takes place close to regular structures outside the Arnold web. (ii) Trapping is not due to a generalized island-around-island hierarchy. (iii) The dynamics of sticky orbits is governed by resonance channels which extend far into the chaotic sea. We find clear signatures of partial transport barriers. Moreover, we visualize the geometry of stochastic layers in resonance channels explored by sticky orbits.

description: Light curves of the semi-detached eclipsing binary system TZ Eridani in the Geneva 7-colour photometric system were analysed using the Wilson-Devinney programme. The physical and orbital parameters have been determined through a self-consistent simultaneous solution of the seven light curves and of the radial velocity curves of both components. The following absolute elements of the components are, for the primary (mass gainer), M_1 = 1.97 +- 0.06 Msol, R_1 = 1.69 +- 0.03 Rsol, Mbol_1 = 2.36 +- 0.09, Teff_1 = 7770 +- 100 K, and for the secondary (mass loser), M_2 = 0.37 +- 0.01 Msol, R_2 = 2.60 +- 0.04 Rsol, Mbol_2 = 3.74 +- 0.13, Teff_2 = 4570 +- 100 K. The semi-major axis A of the relative orbit is 10.57 +- 0.16 Rsol. The regular increase of the period is described. The spectral type of the components are A5/6 V (primary) and K0/1 III. The secondary has exhibited a long-term luminosity increase of about 0.06 in V between Dec 1983 and Dec 1996. The distance to TZ Eri is evaluated to 270 +- 12 pc.

In this work, we study a particular two-particle correlation function: the fermion-boson vertex. It describes the response of the Green's function when an external field is applied and is an important ingredient of diagrammatic extensions of Dynamical Mean-Field Theory. We provide several perspectives on this object, using Ward identities, sum rules, perturbative analysis and asymptotic relations. We then use these tools to study the vertex across the doping-driven metal-insulator transition and find a divergence in the imaginary part.

description: An analysis of the publically available RXTE archive on Her X-1 including data on 23 34.85-day cycles is performed. The turn-on times for these cycles are determined. The number of cycles with a duration of 20.5 orbits has been found exceedingly larger than of shorter (20 orbits) or longer (21 orbits). A correlation between the duration of a cycle and its mean X-ray flux is noted. The mean X-ray light curve shows a very distinct short-on state. The anomalous X-ray absorption dip is found during the first orbit after the turn-on in the main-on state for the cycles starting near the binary phase 0.25, while is present during two successive orbits in the low-on state. The post-eclipse recovery feature have not been found in the main-on state but appears at least for two orbits during the low-on state. The pre-eclipse dips are present both in main-on and low-on state and demonstrate the behaviour as in early observations. The comparison of durations of the main-on and short-on states enabled us to constrain the accretion disk semi-thickness and its inclination to the orbital plane.

Non-linear Galactic Dynamos and the Magnetic Rädler Effect

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)

description: We show that the magnetic analogue of the Rädler effect of mean-field dynamo theory leads to a non-linear backreaction that quenches a large-scale galactic dynamo, and can result in saturation of the large-scale magnetic field at near-equipartition with turbulent kinetic energy density. In a rotating fluid containing small-scale magnetic fluctuations, anisotropic terms in the mean electromotive force are induced via the Coriolis effect and these terms lead to a reduction of the growth rate in a predominantly $αΩ$-type galactic dynamo (Chamandy & Singh 2017). By including the generation of small-scale magnetic fluctuations by turbulent tangling of the large-scale magnetic field, one obtains a negative feedback effect that quenches the dynamo and leads to the saturation of the large-scale field. This saturation mechanism is found to be competitive with the dynamical $α$-quenching mechanism for realistic galactic parameter values. Furthermore, in the context of the dynamical $α$-quenching model, a separate non-linear term is obtained which has the same form as the helicity flux term of Vishniac & Cho (2001), but which depends on the strength of small-scale magnetic fluctuations. We briefly discuss the observational implications of the magnetic Rädler effect for galaxies.

LYMAN $α$ FORESTS AND COOLING OUTFLOW FROM DWARF GALAXIES
Creators: name: Wang, Boqi
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1995
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We propose that cooling outflows from star-forming dwarf galaxies that are spatially correlated with but unbound to bright galaxies may account for the low column QSO Ly$α$ forests, providing an explanation for both the heavy elements recently detected in them and the large sizes associated with them. Thus, we suggest that structure formations in the early universe on scales where matters collapse gravitationally and the gas forms stars are responsible for the Ly$α$ forests (cf. the mini-halo model). Supernovae shock the interstellar gas to high temperature, and the resulting gas outflows from the dwarfs owing to their shallow potential wells. The gas cools radiatively as the radiative cooling time shortens because of adiabatic expansion. Subsequent thermal instability results in condensation of clouds. The clouds inherit the kinetic energy of the flow and coast to large distances, providing regions of the absorbing gas with sizes of up to hundreds of kpc. We calculate the Ly$α$ absorption line profiles and the neutral column distribution, and show that they are consistent with observations. We suggest that the Ly$α$ forests are caused by the faint blue galaxies found in the deep extragalactic surveys.

We use a definition based on the decrease of the comoving Hubble length, and show that Damour and Mukhanov overestimated the amount of inflation occurring. We use the numerical calculations to check the validity of analytic approximations.

Nanomaterials for intracellular fluorescence imaging and sensing
Creators: name: Dos Santos Almeida, Carina Marisa
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2016

description: This thesis explores the use of nanomaterials for bioimaging using conjugated polymer nanoparticles (CPNs) and porous silicon nanoneedles (PSNs) for intracellular biosensing. CPNs have recently started being used in biomedical research due to their outstanding optical properties, such as large extinction coefficients and high fluorescence brightness. Several strategies have been developed to stabilise their surface and provide functional groups for subsequent biomolecule conjugation. Peptides are highly customisable molecules and possess several advantages when compared to other capping ligands. A one-pot synthesis and peptide functionalisation method for CPNs using peptide amphiphiles was developed and it was shown that the presence of the peptide amphiphile did not affect the advantageous optical properties of CPNs. By using peptide amphiphiles with different characteristics, it was possible to tailor the cellular uptake of peptide-CPNs, proving the bioactivity of these nanoparticles. Importantly, none of the used peptide-CPNs demonstrated cell cytotoxicity. Other conjugated polymer (CPs) were used to synthesise peptide-CPNs of different colours, demonstrating the versatility of this method. PSNs have been developed for probing the intracellular environment for delivery or sensing. Access to the cytoplasm of cells is difficult using other methods and therefore PSNs are a suitable candidate for a biocompatible and minimally invasive approach. PSNs were functionalised to a cathepsin B (CTSB) protease cleavable peptide with an imaging moiety that would be released upon CTSB sensing. Optimal conditions for the biosensor assembly were determined in silicon chips. Moreover, two oesophageal cell lines were chosen for in vitro studies and their CTSB expression studied. Incubation of PSNs with cells showed tight interfacing without harming to cells. Finally, an intracellular pH sensor using PSNs was developed and it showed linear response in a biologically relevant window. Collectively, these results have contributed to new ways of interfacing functional nanomaterials with the cellular environment.

description: The presence of massive particles with spin during inflation induces distinct signatures on correlation functions of primordial curvature fluctuations. In particular, the bispectrum of primordial perturbations obtains an angular dependence determined by the spin of the particle, which can be used to set constraints on the presence of such particles. If these particles are long-lived on super-Hubble scales, as is the case for example for partially massless particles, their imprint on correlation functions of curvature perturbations would be unsuppressed. In this paper, we make a forecast for how well such angular dependence can be constrained by the upcoming EUCLID spectroscopic survey via the measurement of galaxy bispectrum.

description: In this thesis, we investigate the zero-delay transmission of source samples over three different types of communication channel models. First, we consider the zero-delay transmission of a Gaussian source sample over an additive white Gaussian noise (AWGN) channel in the presence of an additive white Gaussian (AWG) interference, which is fully known by the transmitter. We propose three parameterized linear and non-linear transmission schemes for this scenario, and compare the corresponding mean square error (MSE) performances with that of a numerically optimized encoder, obtained using the necessary optimality conditions. Next, we consider the zero-delay transmission of a Gaussian source sample over an AWGN channel with a one-bit analog-to-digital (ADC) front end. We study this problem under two different performance criteria, namely the MSE distortion and the distortion outage probability (DOP), and obtain the optimal encoder and the decoder for both criteria. As generalizations of this scenario, we consider the performance with a K-level ADC front end as well as with multiple one-bit ADC front ends. We derive necessary conditions for the optimal encoder and decoder, which are then used to obtain numerically optimized encoder and decoder mappings. Finally, we consider the transmission of a Gaussian source sample over an AWGN channel with a one-bit ADC front end in the presence of correlated side information at the receiver. Again, we derive the necessary optimality conditions, and using these conditions obtain numerically optimized encoder and decoder mappings. We also consider the scenario in which the side information is available also at the encoder, and obtain the optimal encoder and decoder mappings. The performance of the latter scenario serves as a lower bound on the performance of the case in which the side information is available only at the decoder.

The influence of fold and salt-wall growth on deepwater sedimentary systems in an active salt mini-basin, offshore Angola
Creators: name: Doughty-Jones, Gemma
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2014

description: Interactions between deepwater sedimentary systems and growing coeval salt structures result in the development of unique morphological features. This thesis focuses on controls on the formation and development of these features in a deforming deepwater passive margin setting, offshore Angola. Using 3D seismic datasets and well data, the evolution of basin-bounding structures and infill history of a salt withdrawal mini-basin are investigated, focusing on fan lobe complexes and mass transport complexes (MTCs). Structural restoration, isopachs and sediment accumulation rate maps are used to describe the basin evolution, with rates of change of bed length of individual structures calculated using biostratigraphic data. Early sedimentation on the slope was dominated by erosional channel complexes (33.9 - 18.26 Ma). Subsequently, salt movement and a concomitant increase in the growth rate of the basin-bounding anticlines, led to the formation of MTCs (18.26 - 8.29 Ma). Two types of MTC are examined: 1. laterally extensive deposits which thin onto structures and were sourced from the contemporaneous shelf; 2. small-scale MTCs sourced from basin-bounding structures. As salt movement continued, the basin became largely enclosed and ponded fans developed (8.29 - 5.58 Ma). Four lobe complexes imaged in unprecedented detail are investigated, revealing systematic changes in sediment entry point, fan shape and orientation through time. Combining observations on spatial distribution of sedimentary systems with maps showing the rate of growth of structures within the mini-basin and observations of the variations in stratal relationships through time, the following can be concluded: • ponded fan deposition occurred during low growth rate intervals (rate of change of bed length <10 mMa-1). The lobe complex shape resulted from their passive response to relict topography from preceding high rate of change of bed length periods, • regional MTC deposits respond passively to structural growth and relict topography, being preferentially deposited in bathymetric lows, whilst • channels and local MTCs respond actively to medium and high growth rate structures; channel pathways change in response to structures with bed length change rates >15 mMa-1.

Correlates of protection and disease in experimental human respiratory syncytial virus infection

description: Understanding of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) disease and vaccine development has been hampered by an incomplete understanding of the immune mechanisms of protection and disease in humans. Reinfection with antigenically similar strains of RSV occurs throughout life, and observational studies of natural infection do not permit analysis of events in the pre-symptomatic phase of disease. Experimental infection of healthy adults with a standardised inoculum was therefore used to study RSV upper respiratory tract (URT) disease. Pre-existing humoral immunity was assessed locally and systemically, and dynamics of URT symptoms, viral load and nasal mediators were analysed to identify factors involved in symptomatic infection. Forty subjects were enrolled of whom 24 developed infection and 17 exhibited typical cold-like features. Peak symptoms and viral load occurred on days 7 and 8 respectively. Pre-inoculation RSV-specific nasal IgA was most clearly associated with resistance to infection, but infection-boosted levels waned after 6 months. The frequency of acute IgG and IgA antibody secreting cells increased after infection and virus-specific IgG⁺ memory B cells (MBC) incremented around 4-fold. By contrast, IgA⁺ MBC were undetectable pre- and post- infection whereas influenza-specific IgG⁺ and IgA⁺ cells were found at comparable frequencies in convalescent blood from patients recovered from H1N1 influenza, suggesting a specific defect in IgA memory after RSV infection. Nasal viral load correlated with levels of nasal IFN-γ, CXCL10, MIG, TNF and IL-6. Subjects exhibiting early pre-symptomatic IFN-α responses showed reduced symptom scores and lower overall viral loads. Lifelong susceptibility to RSV infection thus reflects a specific defect in IgA memory to RSV, the cause of which needs to be determined. Symptomatic disease results from a failure of innate immune control of RSV replication in the pre-symptomatic stages of infection during the first 48 hrs of viral encounter. Viral replication leads to epithelial injury and inflammation reflected by a number of inflammatory mediators in nasal secretions. Mucosally-delivered vaccines could overcome the IgA memory defect and induce durable protection, which might be enhanced by inducing local IFN-α immediately after viral exposure.

description: Microscale crystals of a 2D layered Mn-MOF [Mn2(TylP)4]n (TylP=5-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)isophthalic) with a thiolate-bridged binuclear Mn(II) node similar to the active site of the [MnAu]-hydrogenase were prepared. This material shows high catalytic activity for visible-light-driven hydrogen production under the illumination of white LED or direct sunlight. The turn-over frequency of the catalyst can reach up to 6 h−1. In this study, the heterogeneous nature and recyclability of the catalyst, as well as the factors that affect the catalytic activity have been investigated and described. Moreover, the photocatalytic mechanism for the hydrogen generation of [Mn2(TylP)4]n has also been proposed, based on fluorescence spectra and cyclic voltammetry.

description: We study the formation of magnetic clusters in frustrated magnets in their cooperative paramagnetic regime. For this purpose, we consider the $J_1$-$J_2$-$J_3$ classical Heisenberg model on kagome and pyrochlore lattices with $J_2 = J_3=J$. In the absence of farther-neighbor couplings, $J=0$, the system is in the Coulomb phase with magnetic correlations well characterized by pinch-point singularities. Farther-neighbor couplings lead to the formation of magnetic clusters, which can be interpreted as a counterpart of topological-charge clusters in Ising frustrated magnets [T. Mizoguchi, L. D. C. Jaubert and M. Udagawa, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 119}, 077207 (2017)]. The concomitant static and dynamical magnetic structure factors, respectively $\mathcal{S}({\bm{q}})$ and $\mathcal{S}({\bm{q}},ω)$, develop half-moon patterns. As $J$ increases, the continuous nature of the Heisenberg spins enables the half-moons to coalesce into connected `star' structures spreading across multiple Brillouin zones. These characteristic patterns are a dispersive complement of the pinch point singularities, and signal the proximity to a Coulomb phase. Shadows of the pinch points remain visible at finite energy, $ω$. This opens the way to observe these clusters through (in)elastic neutron scattering experiments. The origin of these features are clarified by complementary methods: large-$N$ calculations, semi-classical dynamics of the Landau-Lifshitz equation, and Monte Carlo simulations. As promising candidates to observe the clustering states, we revisit the origin of "spin molecules" observed in a family of spinel oxides $AB_2$O$_4$ ($A=$ Zn, Hg, Mg, $B=$ Cr, Fe).

Targeting dithiol-disulfide switches in cells
Creators: name: Liu, Jiazhi
Publisher: name: Imperial College London

description: Many proteins have pairs of spatially proximal cysteine residues which act as redox switches via disulfide bond formation/reduction. These switches can often have profound effects on the biological activity of the proteins. Dibromomaleimide and dibromopyridazinedione derivatives were previously reported to be effective in crosslinking two cysteines. Here, the selective targeting of dithiols over single cysteines was attempted using two approaches. One approach used a bicyclic electrophile which it was hoped would give direct selective reaction. The second strategy was to effect non-selective cysteine functionalization followed by selective cleavage with thiol of adducts on isolated cysteines. Unfortunately, the bicyclic electrophiles examined failed to label the protein models, whilst in the second strategy, thiol cleavage removed both crosslinked adducts and non-crosslinked single cysteine adducts. Interestingly, monobromopyridazinedione was found to react with lysine. It labelled the lysines in somatostatin and this lysine modification was stable under thiol cleavage conditions. Thus, these experiments revealed a potential strategy for selective labelling of lysine residues in the presence of competing cysteines. Covalent modification of proteins was also explored using a chemical probe based on a series of inhibitors previously reported to inhibit NF-κB expression. These inhibitors were previously reported to covalently bind to proteins via a Michael receptor warhead and they had been shown in our lab to prevent cyclin D1 down-regulation after DNA damaging treatment of mammalian cells. An alkyne handle was introduced to the molecule previously synthesized in our group to allow “click reaction” with an azide-tagged biotin/fluorophore to isolate targets for subsequent identification. Competition assays between the probe and the parental inhibitors in both cell lysates and cells were conducted. The inhibitors and the probe acted in competition in cell lysates, but had a synergistic effect on labelling in cell.
