description: Magnetic fields in the intracluster medium (ICM) affect the structure and the evolution of galaxy clusters. However, their properties are largely unknown, and measuring magnetic fields in galaxy clusters is challenging, especially on large-scales outside of individual radio sources. In this work, we probe the plane-of-the-sky orientation of magnetic fields in clusters using the intensity gradients. The technique is a branch of the Gradient Technique (GT) that employs emission intensity maps from turbulent gas. We utilize the Chandra X-ray images of the Perseus, M 87, Coma, and A2597 galaxy clusters, and the VLA radio observations of the synchrotron emission from Perseus. We find that the fields predominantly follow the sloshing arms in Perseus, which is in agreement with numerical simulations. The GT-predicted magnetic field shows signatures of magnetic draping around rising bubbles driven by supermassive black hole (SMBH) feedback in the centers of cool-core clusters, as well as draping around substructures merging with the Coma cluster. We calculate the mean-field orientation with respect to the radial direction in these clusters. In the central regions of cool-core clusters, the mean orientation of the magnetic fields is preferentially azimuthal. There is a broad agreement between the magnetic field of Perseus predicted using the X-ray and radio data. Further numerical studies and better future observations with higher resolution and the larger effective area will help reduce the uncertainties of this method.

description: An intergeneration transfer simulation model is used to project estate transfer costs and the value of transfers to the heirs before and after the tax reform act of 1976. Lower Federal estate taxes result for estates that qualify for the special use valuation of farmland provision of the new law. Replacing the $60,000 estate exemption with the $47,000 estate tax credit and revising the tax rate schedule increases Federal estate taxes when the taxable estate is between $1.175 million and $9.353 million. The new carryover basis rules for estate assets acquired from decedents dying after 1979 also increase transfer costs.

description: Background: Sex differences are apparent in the prevalence and the clinical presentation of Parkinson’s disease (PD), but their effects on speech have been less studied.Method: Speech acoustics of persons with (34 females and 34 males) and without (age- and sex-matched) PD were examined, assessing the effects of PD diagnosis and sex on ratings of dysarthria severity and acoustic measures of phonation (fundamental frequency standard deviation, smoothed cepstral peak prominence), speech rate (net syllables per second, percent pause ratio), and articulation (articulatory–acoustic vowel space, release burst precision).Results: Most measures were affected by PD (dysarthria severity, fundamental frequency standard deviation) and sex (smoothed cepstral peak prominence, net syllables per second, percent pause ratio, articulatory–acoustic vowel space), but without interactions between them. Release burst precision was differentially affected by sex in PD. Relative to those without PD, persons with PD produced fewer plosives with a single burst: females more frequently produced multiple bursts, whereas males more frequently produced no burst at all.Conclusions: Most metrics did not indicate that speech production is differentially affected by sex in PD. Sex was, however, associated with disparate effects on release burst precision in PD, which deserves further study.Supplemental Material S1.

Accretion disk onto boson stars: a way to supplant black holes candidates

description: The emission spectrum from a simple accretion disk model around a compact object is compared for the cases of a black hole (BH) and a boson star (BS) playing the role of the central object. It was found in the past that such a spectrum presents a hardening at high frequencies; however, here it is shown that the self-interaction and compactness of the BS have the effect of softening the spectrum, the less compact the star is, the softer the emission spectrum at high frequencies. Because the mass of the boson fixes the mass of the star and the self-interaction the compactness of the star, we find that, for certain values of the BS parameters, it is possible to produce similar spectra to those generated when the central object is a BH. This result presents two important implications: (i) using this simple accretion model, a BS can supplant a BH in the role of compact object accreting matter, and (ii) within the assumptions of the present accretion disk model we do not find a prediction that could help distinguish a BH from a BS with appropriate parameters of mass and self-interaction.

description: The hypervelocity star SDSS J090745.0+024507 in the halo of the Milky Way galaxy (Brown et al. 2005) most likely originated from the breakup of a binary star system by the central black hole, SgrA* (Hills 1988). We examine the fate of former binary companions to similar hypervelocity stars (HVSs) by simulating 600 different binary orbits around SgrA* with a direct N-body integration code. For some orbital parameters, the binary breakup process leads to HVSs with ejection velocities that are almost an order of magnitude larger than the velocity observed for SDSS J090745.0+024507. The former companion stars populate highly eccentric orbits which resemble the observed orbits for some of the stars nearest to SgrA*.

description: Purpose: When emergencies or disasters arise, individuals who use augmentative and alternative communication (AAC) are particularly vulnerable. It is critical that individuals who use AAC are supported to make decisions that impact their own lives and are able to communicate during such a crisis. Preparedness efforts that include a plan around communication needs and supports are necessary for ensuring that individuals who use AAC are able to understand options that ensure personal safety and express their needs during a time of crisis.Method: Qualitative methods were used to identify and describe the experiences of two young adults who use AAC and their caregivers when engaging in person-centered planning intervention sessions to complete the activities of the United States Society for Augmentative and Alternative Communication (USSAAC) emergency/disaster preparedness toolkit. Pre-intervention interviews and subjective, objective, assessment, and plan (SOAP) notes taken after each intervention session were done to describe their preparedness and experiences completing the toolkit. Themes were identified to describe participant experiences and change in their perceived preparedness.Results: Five themes and 18 subthemes emerged from the pre-intervention interviews and the SOAP notes across 14 intervention sessions that captured each participant and their caregiver’s awareness of needs, barriers in emergency situations, challenges in completing the toolkit, and actions during person-centered planning with the toolkit (e.g., personalizing communication boards, making a go bag, and scheduling visits with local emergency agencies).Conclusions: This study highlights the need for preparedness activities that are person-centered and account for the communication support needs of individuals who use AAC if faced with an emergency/disaster. Outcomes suggest that these methods were feasible and supported positive change in perceived preparedness in the young adults who used AAC and their caregivers.Supplemental Material S1.

description: Loss of braking power and rubber skidding on a wet road is still an open physics problem, since neither the hydrodynamical effects nor the loss of surface adhesion that are sometimes blamed really manage to explain the 20-30% observed loss of low speed tire-road friction. Here we advance a novel mechanism based on sealing of water-filled substrate pools by the rubber. The sealed-in water effectively smoothens the substrate, thus reducing the viscoelastic dissipation in bulk rubber induced by surface asperities, well established as a major friction contribution. Starting with the measured spectrum of asperities one can calculate the water-smoothened spectrum and from that the predicted friction reduction, which is of the right magnitude. The theory is directly supported by fresh tire-asphalt friction data.

description: Existing and upcoming instrumentation is collecting large amounts of astrophysical data, which require efficient and fast analysis techniques. We present a deep neural network architecture to analyze high-resolution stellar spectra and predict stellar parameters such as effective temperature, surface gravity, metallicity, and rotational velocity. With this study, we firstly demonstrate the capability of deep neural networks to precisely recover stellar parameters from a synthetic training set. Secondly, we analyze the application of this method to observed spectra and the impact of the synthetic gap (i.e., the difference between observed and synthetic spectra) on the estimation of stellar parameters, their errors, and their precision. Our convolutional network is trained on synthetic PHOENIX-ACES spectra in different optical and near-infrared wavelength regions. For each of the four stellar parameters, $T_{\rm eff}$, $\log{g}$, [M/H], and $v \sin{i}$, we constructed a neural network model to estimate each parameter independently. We then applied this method to 50 M dwarfs with high-resolution spectra taken with CARMENES (Calar Alto high-Resolution search for M dwarfs with Exo-earths with Near-infrared and optical Echelle Spectrographs), which operates in the visible (520-960 nm) and near-infrared wavelength range (960-1710 nm) simultaneously. Our results are compared with literature values for these stars. They show mostly good agreement within the errors, but also exhibit large deviations in some cases, especially for [M/H], pointing out the importance of a better understanding of the synthetic gap.
Colossal resistivity change besides magnetoresistance: an extended theoretical framework for electronic transport of manganites

description: Current theoretical approaches to manganites mainly stem from magnetic framework, in which the electronic transport is thought to be spin-dependent and the double exchange mechanism plays a core role. However, quite a number of experimental observations can yet not be reasonably explained. For example, multiplicate insulator-metal transitions and resistivity reduction induced by perturbations other than magnetic field, such as electric current, are not well understood. A comprehensive analysis on earlier extensive studies is performed and two types of origins for resistivity change are highlighted. Besides the insulated-to-metallic transition induced by external field such as magnetic field, the insulated-to-insulated transition induced extrinsically is even a more important source for the colossal resistivity change. We propose an extended framework for the electronic transport of manganites, in which the contribution of charge degree of freedom is given a special priority.

Self-reported lactose intolerance : subtitle an exploratory study of knowledge, attitudes, diagnostic characteristics and calcium intake
Creators: name: Lovelace, Heather Yvonne
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Numerous studies indicate that more people claim to be lactose intolerant than there actually are, which suggests widespread misconceptions exist. However, there has been little research to assess how people decide that they are lactose intolerant, and the nutritional implications of this perception. Perceived lactose intolerance may be just as important as true lactose intolerance since dietary changes may ensue, possibly compromising among other nutrients, calcium intake and increasing osteoporosis risk. The objective of this study was to assess calcium intake of individuals with self-reported lactose intolerance. Participants, recruited through newspaper advertisements, completed a food frequency questionnaire to estimate calcium intake from food and supplementary sources. Questions to elicit information on diagnosis, symptom severity, and demographics were included. Furthermore, knowledge, attitudes and dairy product intake behaviours were assessed using scales. All data were analyzed using the Statistical Package for the Social Sciences (SPSS, version 10) statistical environment, using descriptive statistics, chi-square or Fisher's Exact tests, t-tests and Analysis of Variance. A total of 159 participants completed and returned questionnaires (84% response rate). Respondents were 47 ± 15 yrs of age; 72% female and 28% male; 67% Caucasian; and >53.8% had self-diagnosed their lactose intolerance. Of those with physicians involved in diagnosis, 9.7% had confirmable diagnoses by reliable testing methods. Knowledge scores indicated good knowledge of lactose intolerance by participants. Attitudes towards dairy products were more negative among participants than among other British Columbians, and other Canadians when compared to population studies. Fluid milk caused discomfort in 67% of study participants. Mean estimated food calcium intake was 591 ± 382 mg/d. Estimates were lower for those who excluded milk, cheese or yogurt. There were no significant differences by sex or age, nor was there an age-by-sex interaction. Only 11.5% of participants met their age-appropriate Adequate Intake (AI) levels from food calcium sources alone. In comparison to large population studies (Alaimo et al., 1994) participants in this investigation had lower estimates of calcium intake from food sources alone. Thus, health professionals involved in diagnosis of lactose intolerance should be encouraged to discuss calcium needs, food sources of calcium and calcium supplementation with those self-reporting lactose intolerance to promote individuals' ability to meet AI levels.

description: We solve the long standing problem of finding an off-shell supersymmetric formulation for a general N = (2, 2) nonlinear two dimensional sigma model. Geometrically the problem is equivalent to proving the existence of special coordinates; these correspond to particular superfields that allow for a superspace description. We construct and explain the geometric significance of the generalized Kahler potential for any generalized Kahler manifold; this potential is the superspace Lagrangian.

description: Introduction: Craniofacial microsomia (CFM) is a complex congenital condition primarily affecting the ear, mandible, facial nerve and muscles, and tongue. Individuals with CFM are at increased risk of hearing loss, obstructive sleep apnea, and feeding/swallowing difficulties. The purpose of this scoping review was to summarize evidence pertaining to speech production in CFM.Method: All articles reporting any characteristic of speech production in CFM were included and screened by two independent reviewers by title, abstract, and full text. Data charting captured details related to study population and design, CFM diagnostic criteria, speech outcome measurement, and key findings. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews checklist guided reporting of results. Our protocol was registered on the Open Science Framework (https://osf.io/npr94/) and published elsewhere.Results: Forty-five articles were included in the detailed review. Most articles originated from the United States, were published in the past decade, and utilized case report/series study design. A speech-language pathologist authored 29%. The prevalence of velopharyngeal insufficiency ranged from 19% to 55% among studies. Oral distortion of alveolar and palatal fricatives and affricates primarily characterized articulation errors. Studies identified increased disordered speech and lower intelligibility in adolescents with CFM compared to unaffected peers. Evidence pertaining to phonatory and respiratory speech findings is limited.Conclusions: Evidence supports that individuals with CFM are at increased risk of both velopharyngeal and articulatory speech differences. Additional information is needed to develop speech screening guidelines for children with CFM. Heterogeneity in study design and outcome measurement precludes comparisons across studies.Supplemental Material S1. Ovid MEDLINE search strategy.Kinter, S., Kotlarek, K., Meehan, A., & Heike, C.

The purpose of this scoping review was to summarize evidence pertaining to speech production in CFM.Method: All articles reporting any characteristic of speech production in CFM were included and screened by two independent reviewers by title, abstract, and full text. Data charting captured details related to study population and design, CFM diagnostic criteria, speech outcome measurement, and key findings. The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses Extension for Scoping Reviews checklist guided reporting of results. Our protocol was registered on the Open Science Framework (https://osf.io/npr94/) and published elsewhere.Results: Forty-five articles were included in the detailed review. Most articles originated from the United States, were published in the past decade, and utilized case report/series study design. A speech-language pathologist authored 29%. The prevalence of velopharyngeal insufficiency ranged from 19% to 55% among studies. Oral distortion of alveolar and palatal fricatives and affricates primarily characterized articulation errors. Studies identified increased disordered speech and lower intelligibility in adolescents with CFM compared to unaffected peers. Evidence pertaining to phonatory and respiratory speech findings is limited.Conclusions: Evidence supports that individuals with CFM are at increased risk of both velopharyngeal and articulatory speech differences. Additional information is needed to develop speech screening guidelines for children with CFM. Heterogeneity in study design and outcome measurement precludes comparisons across studies.Supplemental Material S1. Ovid MEDLINE search strategy.Kinter, S., Kotlarek, K., Meehan, A., & Heike, C.

description: Using the EMIR instrument on the IRAM 30m telescope, we conducted a spectroscopic redshift search of seven z$_{\rm phot}$ $\sim$ 4 sub-millimetre bright galaxies selected from the Herschel Bright Sources (HerBS) sample with fluxes at 500 $μ$m greater than 80 mJy. For four sources, we obtained spectroscopic redshifts between 3.4 < z < 4.1 through the detection of multiple CO-spectral lines with J $\leq$ 3. Later, we detected low-J transitions for two of these sources with the GBT including the CO(1-0) transition. For the remaining three sources, more data are needed to determine the spectroscopic redshift unambiguously. The measured CO luminosities and line widths suggest that all these sources are gravitationally lensed. These observations demonstrate that the 2 mm window is indispensable to confirm robust spectroscopic redshifts for z < 4 sources. Finally, we present an efficient graphical method to correctly identify spectroscopic redshifts.

description: Caustics are formally singular structures, with infinite density, that form in collisionless media. The non-negligible velocity dispersion of dark matter particles renders their density finite. We evaluate the maximum density of the caustics within the framework of secondary infall model of formation of dark matter haloes. The result is then used to demonstrate that caustics can be probed by properly stacking the weak-lensing signal of about 600 haloes. CFHTLS accompanied by X-ray observations and the space-based experiments like SNAP or DUNE can provide us with the required statistics and hence a way of distinguishing between the viable dark matter particle candidates. The extension of our results to more realistic models including the effects of mergers of haloes is briefly outlined.

description: The fact that the measured B to ππ, πK branching ratios exhibit puzzling patterns has received a lot of attention in the literature and motivated the formulation of a series of new physics scenarios with enhanced Z-penguins. In this work, we analyze the effect of such an enhancement on the lepton polarization asymmetries of B_s to γ\ell^+ \ell^- decays by applying the results of a specific scenario for the solution of ``B to πK puzzle''.

title: Ontogenetic transformations of the ethmoidal region in Muroidea (Rodentia, Mammalia): new insights from perinatal stages
Creators: name: Ruf, Irina

description: The cartilaginous nasal capsule of mammals becomes highly modified during ontogeny by resorption and ossification that finally results in the ethmoid bone. A deeper understanding of the early ontogeny of the ethmoidal region helps to elucidate morphological patterns and homologies in the adult cranium. However, the perinatal development of the ethmoidal region is not well studied though this is a craniogenetic crucial time frame. This is especially the case in the most species-rich rodent group, the Muroidea. In order to elucidate the perinatal transformation of the nasal capsule histological serial sections of 23 muroid species, one dipodid species, and two geomyoid species were investigated, some of which are represented by more than one ontogenetic stage. In addition adult crania of selected Muroidea were analyzed by µCT. The muroid grundplan of the ethmoidal region is already determined at birth and comprises a general pattern of six olfactory turbinals (two frontoturbinals, three ethmoturbinals, one interturbinal between the first two ethmoturbinals). Apomorphic patterns are restricted to the number of turbinals in the frontoturbinal recess: three in Abrothrix longipilis, one in Apodemus flavicollis, Apodemus sylvaticus, Micromys minutus, Mus musculus, and Rattus norvegicus.
Perinatal stages of all altricial muroid species under study have a less mature ethmoidal region compared to precocial rodents e.g., caviomorphs. However, in muroids resorption of the nasal capsule and ossification of the turbinals, nasal septum and lamina cribrosa already start around birth and follow a distinct pattern observed in many other rodents. In around 14 days old stages of some investigated muroids the paries nasi and tectum nasi are almost completely resorbed except for the anterior nasal cartilages and those parts that become ossified and part of the ethmoid bone (e.g., roots of turbinals). Surprisingly, the precocial Sigmodon hispidus and Acomys sp. resemble generally the developmental pattern of altricial muroids although e.g., paries nasi resorption starts clearly earlier in Acomys. Furthermore, the perinatal maturity of Mesocricetus auratus that has the shortest gestation period among placental mammals corresponds to that of other altricial muroids. This observation supports an accelerated development in the golden hamster.

description: We report on a multi-wavelength (IR to cm) and multi-resolution (1 mas to 20 arcsec) exploration of high-mass star formation regions in the Galactic plane, at longitudes observable from the Southern Hemisphere. Our source sample was originally identified through methanol masers in the Galactic plane, which exclusively trace high-mass star-forming regions. (Sub)millimetre continuum and molecular line observations were carried out with SEST/SIMBA, JCMT/SCUBA and ATNF/Mopra mm-wave telescopes and have allowed us to identify massive ($>20$ M$_{\odot}$) and luminous ($>10^3$ L$_{\odot}$) clumps in each star-forming region. We have also constrained the SED with additional archival IR data, the physical conditions ($T_{dust}$, $L$, $M$) and the chemical composition of each massive clump. Several types of objects were characterised based on the $L_{submm}/L_{bol}$ ratio, the dust temperature and the molecular line properties, ranging from class 0-like YSO clusters ($L_{sub}/L_{bol}\sim1%$, T=30 K) to hot molecular clumps ($L_{sub}/L_{bol}\sim0.1%$, $T=40-200$ K). Preliminary high-angular resolution observations for a subset of the sample with the ATNF/ATCA at 3 mm, the VLA at 15, 22 and 43 GHz and Gemini in MIR have revealed that several (proto)stellar objects are embedded in the massive clumps: massive protostars, hot cores and hyper-compact HII regions. We have thus identified protoclusters of massive YSOs, which are the precursors of the OB associations. This sample of Southern Hemisphere star-forming regions will be extremely valuable for the scientific preparation of the ALMA and HSO observations.

description: Users of music streaming, video streaming, news recommendation, and e-commerce services often engage with content in a sequential manner. Providing and evaluating good sequences of recommendations is therefore a central problem for these services. Prior reweighting-based counterfactual evaluation methods either suffer from high variance or make strong independence assumptions about rewards. We propose a new counterfactual estimator that allows for sequential interactions in the rewards with lower variance in an asymptotically unbiased manner. Our method uses graphical assumptions about the causal relationships of the slate to reweight the rewards in the logging policy in a way that approximates the expected sum of rewards under the target policy. Extensive experiments in simulation and on a live recommender system show that our approach outperforms existing methods in terms of bias and data efficiency for the sequential track recommendations problem.

description: We show that the nonlinear chiral supermultiplet allows one to construct, over given two-dimensional bosonic mechanics, the family of two-dimensional ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric mechanics parameterized with the holomorphic function $λ(z)$. We show, that this family includes, as a particular case, the ${\cal N}=4$ superextensions of two-dimensional mechanics with magnetic fields, which have factorizable Schroedinger equations.
