description: Two "elliptic analogues'' of the nonlinear Schrödinger hiererchy are constructed, and their status in the Grassmannian perspective of soliton equations is elucidated. In addition to the usual fields $u,v$, these elliptic analogues have new dynamical variables called ``Tyurin parameters,'' which are connected with a family of vector bundles over the elliptic curve in consideration. The zero-curvature equations of these systems are formulated by a sequence of $2 \times 2$ matrices $A_n(z)$, $n = 1,2,...$, of elliptic functions. In addition to a fixed pole at $z = 0$, these matrices have several extra poles. Tyurin parameters consist of the coordinates of those poles and some additional parameters that describe the structure of $A_n(z)$'s. Two distinct solutions of the auxiliary linear equations are constructed, and shown to form a Riemann-Hilbert pair with degeneration points. The Riemann-Hilbert pair is used to define a mapping to an infinite dimensional Grassmann variety. The elliptic analogues of the nonlinear Schrödinger hierarchy are thereby mapped to a simple dynamical system on a special subset of the Grassmann variety.

description: We present results on pentaquark searches from nuclear collisions at RHIC with the STAR detector system. An intriguing peak has been observed in the invariant mass distribution of $pK^{+}+\overline{p}K^{-}$ from 18.6 Million d+Au collision events at $\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}} = 200$~GeV. The peak centers at a mass $1528 \pm 2 \pm 5$~MeV/c$^{2}$ and the FWHM $\sim15$ MeV/c$^{2}$ limited by detector responses. The statistical significance of the peak is $4.2σ$. Such a state if confirmed is manifestly exotic and implies a family of isospin one states. A weak signal of less statistical significance ($\sim3σ$) has been observed in 5.6M Au+Au collision events at 62.4 GeV. Searches in 10.7M Au+Au collision events at 200 GeV yield no significant signal. The Au+Au results neither confirm nor rule out the d+Au observation as a possible state.

description: In my article, after describing the characteristics of recent wastewater treatment activity, I introduce different traditional and innovative energetic opportunities of the compulsory waste management activities at large-scale operational level, covering national and international examples. Furthermore, the wastewater-based biomethane production and the certain plant’s energy self-sufficiency are highlighted topics as well. In the former case, it is possible to utilize the wastewater-based biomethane as fuel (and even to operate own vehicle fleet), while the second one gives the opportunity for the internal usage of produced electricity and waste heat, which can also result in significant cost-savings. As an additional option, algae-based wastewater post treatment is presented, based on the conditions of a Hungarian wastewater treatment plant, which biogas production efficiency and thus energy self-sufficiency has developed favourably due to the technological improvements. These plants may have a twofold role in the future: they are responsible for the compulsory waste management activity and on the other hand they can serve as excellent raw material mines.

On the convergence of Kikuchi's natural iteration method

description: In this article we investigate on the convergence of the natural iteration method, a numerical procedure widely employed in the statistical mechanics of lattice systems to minimize Kikuchi's cluster variational free energies. We discuss a sufficient condition for the convergence, based on the coefficients of the cluster entropy expansion, depending on the lattice geometry. We also show that such a condition is satisfied for many lattices usually studied in applications. Finally, we consider a recently proposed general method for the minimization of non convex functionals, showing that the natural iteration method turns out as a particular case of that method.

title: Cancerous Inhibitor of Protein Phosphatase 2A (CIP2A) in Chronic Myeloid Leukaemia
Creators: name: McDonald, E
Publisher: name: University of Liverpool Repository
Year: 2016

description: Chronic myeloid leukaemia (CML) is a myeloproliferative disorder arising in a haematopoietic stem cell (HSC) and defined by the presence of BCR-ABL1, a deregulated tyrosine kinase that drives numerous oncogenic signalling pathways. Current CML therapies are tyrosine kinase inhibitors (TKIs) that target the constitutive action of BCR-ABL1. However, resistance to TKIs remains a concern for a substantial proportion of CML patients and thus investigating the mechanisms underlying poor clinical response is of great importance. The tumour suppressor protein phosphatase 2A (PP2A) plays a crucial role in the inhibition of several critical oncogenic signalling pathways. Consequently, reports of aberrant PP2A activity in human malignancies are abundant. Cancerous inhibitor of PP2A (CIP2A) is an endogenous inhibitor of PP2A that is overexpressed in a plethora of tumours; CIP2A inhibits the dephosphorylation of the oncogenic transcription factor c-Myc by PP2A. In CML, it was shown that high CIP2A protein expression at diagnosis was predictive of progression into blast crisis in imatinib-treated CML. This thesis aimed to determine if CIP2A retained its potential prognostic indicator status in CML treated with dasatinib or nilotinib. The molecular pathogenesis of the CIP2A/PP2A pathway within CML and the central role played by CIP2A is also investigated. Molecular interactions of proteins have been known to greatly differ between transcript variants of the same gene. No CIP2A transcript variant has ever been reported. This thesis aimed to identify two CIP2A transcript variants previously undescribed in vivo, and analyse their differing expressions within a CML population. Aberrant epigenetic regulation is an expanding area of interest; many genes have their expression altered via deregulated methylation, transcription factor binding and micro RNAs. This thesis focussed on the methylation of the CIP2A promoter in CML of varying disease phase and clinical outcome. In summary, this thesis provides novel information about CIP2A in response to CML treatment, CIP2A protein interactions, CIP2A gene variations and epigenetic regulation. With more knowledge of this oncoprotein, its oncogenic mechanisms may in the future be specifically targeted and overcome.

No light at the end of the tunnel
Creators: name: Reiss, Howard R.
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: The tunneling model for laser-induced processes implies the replacement of the propagating field of a laser by an oscillatory electric field. The view of the electric field as the primary influence in charged particle interactions fails for laser processes where the propagation property is important. Electric fields lack several quintessential laser-field properties that become dominant at high intensities and/or low frequencies. Quantum tunneling is not a concept generally suited to laser light. Conversely, laser criteria do not apply to electric-field phenomena like Sauter–Schwinger pair production in the vacuum, contrary to a widespread assumption.
Topological mass generation and $2-$forms

description: In this work we revisit the topological mass generation of 2-forms and establish a connection to the unique derivative coupling arising in the quartic Lagrangian of the systematic construction of massive $2-$form interactions, relating in this way BF theories to Galileon-like theories of 2-forms. In terms of a massless $1-$form $A$ and a massless $2-$form $B$, the topological term manifests itself as the interaction $B\wedge F$, where $F = {\rm d} A$ is the field strength of the $1-$form. Such an interaction leads to a mechanism of generation of mass, usually referred to as "topological generation of mass" in which the single degree of freedom propagated by the $2-$form is absorbed by the $1-$form, generating a massive mode for the $1-$form. Using the systematical construction in terms of the Levi-Civita tensor, it was shown that, apart from the quadratic and quartic Lagrangians, Galileon-like derivative self-interactions for the massive 2-form do not exist. A unique quartic Lagrangian $ε^{μνρσ}ε^{αβγ}_{\;\;\;\;\;\;σ}\partial_μB_{αρ}\partial_νB_{βγ}$ arises in this construction in a way that it corresponds to a total derivative on its own but ceases to be so once an overall general function is introduced. We show that it exactly corresponds to the same interaction of topological mass generation. Based on the decoupling limit analysis of the interactions, we bring out supporting arguments for the uniqueness of such a topological mass term and absence of the Galileon-like interactions. Finally, we discuss some preliminary applications in cosmology.

Dispersive Gap Mode of Phonons in Anisotropic Superconductors

description: We estimate the effect of the superconducting gap anisotropy in the dispersive gap mode of phonons, which is observed by the neutron scattering on borocarbide superconductors. We numerically analyze the phonon spectrum considering the electron-phonon coupling, and examine contributions coming from the gap suppression and the sign change of the pairing function on the Fermi surface. When the sign of the pairing function is changed by the nesting translation, the gap mode does not appear. We also discuss the suppression of the phonon softening of the Kohn anomaly due to the onset of superconductivity. We demonstrate that observation of the gap dispersive mode is useful for sorting out the underlying superconducting pairing function.

description: This paper presents two trajectory Poisson multi-Bernoulli (TPMB) filters for multi-target tracking: one to estimate the set of alive trajectories at each time step and another to estimate the set of all trajectories, which includes alive and dead trajectories, at each time step. The filters are based on propagating a Poisson multi-Bernoulli (PMB) density on the corresponding set of trajectories through the filtering recursion. After the update step, the posterior is a PMB mixture (PMBM) so, in order to obtain a PMB density, a Kullback-Leibler divergence minimisation on an augmented space is performed. The developed filters are computationally lighter alternatives to the trajectory PMBM filters, which provide the closed-form recursion for sets of trajectories with Poisson birth model, and are shown to outperform previous multi-target tracking algorithms.

Vector meson pair production in two-photon collisions near threshold

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: The cross sections for several $γγ\to VV$ processes exhibit strong enhancements near threshold, where $V$ denotes a vector meson. The pattern of these enhancements is not well understood; for example, $γγ\to ρ^0 ρ^0$ shows an appreciable peak, while $γγ\to ρ^+ ρ^-$ does not. Some possible mechanisms for this behavior are discussed. Tests are proposed involving production of systems containing heavier quarks, e.g., through the reaction $γγ\to J/ψρ^0$. The importance of modeling $\ell^+ \ell^- π^+ π^-$ angular distributions in decays of threshold $J/ψρ^0$ enhancements is illustrated by comparing the expected distributions for S-wave decays of scalar particles and P-wave decays of pseudoscalar particles.

Prevalence of reproductive coercion among male and female emerging adults
Creators: name: Addington, Lynn A.
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Reproductive coercion (RC), or the exertion of power and control over a partner's reproductive choices and health, is gaining attention as a distinct form of intimate partner violence (IPV). The bulk of research in this area centers on female victims with an emphasis on pregnancy coercion and the disproportionate effect of pregnancy on women. Researchers conducting systematic reviews of this literature note that RC includes behaviors in addition to pregnancy coercion and the need exists to consider male RC victims and how their experiences differ from female victims. This study compares RC between male and female emerging adults (those aged 18-25 years) using the National Intimate Partner and Sexual Violence Survey (NISVS). Emerging adults are selected as a population at greater risk for IPV than other age groups. NISVS provides an opportunity to conduct this research as it is one of the only national data collections that measures RC across male and female respondents. This study finds more female than male emerging adults experience RC, but both groups experience RC with other forms of IPV. This exploratory study concludes with a discussion of future research for RC involving male victims and the emerging adult population.

description: Continuing on our previous work, we consider a class of higher dimensional brane models with the topology of $AdS_{D_1+1} \times Σ$, where $Σ$ is a one-parameter compact manifold and two branes of codimension 1 are located at the orbifold fixed points. We consider a set-up where such a solution arises from Einstein-Yang-Mills theory and evaluate the one-loop effective potential induced by gauge fields and by a generic bulk scalar field. We show that this type of brane models resolves the gauge hierarchy between the Planck and electroweak scales through redshift effects due to the warp factor $a=e^{-πkr}$. The value of $a$ is then fixed by minimizing the effective potential. We find that, as in the Randall Sundrum case, the gauge field contribution to the effective potential stabilises the hierarchy without fine-tuning as long as the laplacian $Δ_Σ$ on $Σ$ has a zero eigenvalue. Scalar fields can stabilise the hierarchy depending on the mass and the non-minimal coupling. We also address the quantum self-consistency of the solution, showing that the classical brane solution is not spoiled by quantum effects.

We construct an important local martingale using degenerate representations of the Virasoro algebra. We sketch how to compute derivative exponants and the restriction martingales in this framework. In its CFT formulation, the SLE dual Fokker-Planck operator acts as the two-particle Calogero hamiltonian on boundary primary fields and as the dilatation operator on bulk primary fields localized at the fixed point of the SLE map.

description: Using the perturbative method for the simulation of charmed particles, the dynamical origin of charm quark elliptic flow is studied in the framework of a multi-phase transport (AMPT) model. Besides the expected ordering relative to that of light quarks according to quark masses, charm quark elliptic flow is seen to be sensitive to the parton scattering cross section. To describe the observed large elliptic flow of electrons from the decay of charmed mesons, a charm quark elastic scattering cross section much larger than that estimated from the perturbative QCD is required.

description: Municipal and residential water purification rely heavily on activated carbon (AC), but regeneration of AC is costly and cannot be performed at the point-of-use. Clay minerals (CMs) comprise a class of naturally abundant materials with known capacities for analyte adsorbance. However, the gel-forming properties of CMs in aqueous suspension pose problems for these materials being used in water-purification. In this study, we have taken three main steps to optimize the use of CMs in these applications. First, we produced several variants of montmorillonite CMs to evaluate the effect of interstitial cation hydrophobicity on the ability of the CM to uptake charge-carrying organic pollutants. These variants include CMs with the following cations: sodium, hexyl(triphenyl)phosphonium, hexyadecyl(triphenyl)phosphonium, and hexyl(tributyl)phosphonium. Second, we synthesized polymer–clay mineral composite films composed of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), crosslinked in the presence of a CM variant. These films were evaluated for their ability to uptake malachite green (MG). Finally, we developed a one-pot synthetic method for the generation of polymer–clay particles for use in a continuous column process. We synthesized polymer–clay mineral particles using the highest performing CM (based on the film experiments) and evaluated the equilibrium capacity and kinetics of MG uptake from solution.

 Derivatio nominis: Named after the shape of uncus.
 Diagnosis (Fig. 11): Wingspan 10 mm; head brush lemon-yellow; antennae nearly white; labial palpi short, brown; thorax and tegulae and forewings brown; forewings without any pattern, apical half of fringe dark brown; hindwings dark grey.
 Male genitalia (Fig. 42): Uncus bifurcate, with pointed tips; tegumen and vinculum broad band-shaped, distal edge of vinculum more strongly sclerotised; valvae lanceolate, basally with narrow apodeme and short square process, broadest at first third, costal edge straight, ventral edge becoming narrower to rounded apex; inside, in the first third, from base between apodeme and process, a thin rod-shaped sclerotisation; phallus connected with tegumen, hook-shaped, basally and laterally with strong sclerotised edges.
 Female genitalia: Unknown.
 Remarks: In male genitalia there are similarities to the species of the species group “ paraxena ” of GOZMÁNY & VÁRI (1973), but the shape of valvae and the straight rod-shaped sclerotisation inside is different. The lemonyellow head brush is an additional characteristic.

description: We point out that extended gravity theories, the Lagrangian of which is an arbitrary function of scalar curvature $R$, are equivalent to a class of the scalar tensor theories of gravity. The corresponding gravity theory is $ω=0$ Brans-Dicke gravity with a potential for the Brans-Dicke scalar field, which is not compatible with solar system experiments if the field is very light: the case when such modifications are important recently.

Completely Positive, Simple, and Possibly Highly Accurate Approximation of the Redfield Equation

description: Here we present a Lindblad master equation that approximates the Redfield equation, a well known master equation derived from first principles, without significantly compromising the range of applicability of the Redfield equation. Instead of full-scale coarse-graining, this approximation only truncates terms in the Redfield equation that average out over a time-scale typical of the quantum system. The first step in this approximation is to properly renormalize the system Hamiltonian, to symmetrize the gains and losses of the state due to the environmental coupling. In the second step, we swap out an arithmetic mean of the spectral density with a geometric one, in these gains and losses, thereby restoring complete positivity. This completely positive approximation, GAME (geometric-arithmetic master equation), is adaptable between its time-independent, time-dependent, and Floquet form. In the exactly solvable, three-level, Jaynes-Cummings model, we find that the error of the approximate state is almost an order of magnitude lower than that obtained by solving the coarse-grained stochastic master equation. As a test-bed, we use a ferromagnetic Heisenberg spin-chain with long-range dipole-dipole coupling between up to 25-spins, and study the differences between various master equations. We find that GAME has the highest accuracy per computational resource.

description: Aim: To examine the effects of the low glutamate diet on inflammatory cytokines in veterans with Gulf War Illness (GWI). Main methods: Forty veterans with GWI were recruited from across the country. Anthropometric measurements and blood samples were collected at baseline and after one month on the low glutamate diet. Dietary adherence was measured with a glutamate food frequency questionnaire (FFQ). Inflammatory cytokines (IL-1β, IL-6, IFN-γ, and TNF-α) were measured in pre- and post-diet serum (N = 34). Improvement was defined as being “much” or “very much” improved on the patient global impression of change scale (PGIC), or as having ≥30% of their symptoms remit. Correlations of the FFQ and the cytokines were calculated, followed by multivariable linear regression for significant findings. Mann Whitney U tests were used to compare cytokine levels according to improvement on the diet, and then logistic regression was used to estimate the association after adjustment for potential confounders. Classification trees were also produced to determine the ability of change in the inflammatory cytokines to predict improvement on the diet. Key findings: Dietary adherence was significantly associated with reduction in TNF-α, and PGIC improvement was significantly associated with reduced IL-1β, after adjustment for potential confounders. Classification trees demonstrated that IL-1β, TNF-α, and IL-6 can predict improvement on the diet with 76.5% accuracy. Significance: Findings suggest that the low glutamate diet may be able to reduce systemic inflammation in veterans with GWI.
