description: The anomalously large experimentally measured ratios of the semitauonic decay $B\rightarrow D^{(*)} +τ+ν$ and the corresponding semileptonic $B\rightarrow D^{*} +ł+\barν_l$ disagree with the predictions of the standard E.W + QCD model(S.M). We briefly comment on this disagreement and on possible new physics explanations which are rather constrained and difficult to implement.

description: An uncertainty compiler is a tool that automatically translates original computer source code lacking explicit uncertainty analysis into code containing appropriate uncertainty representations and uncertainty propagation algorithms. We have developed an prototype uncertainty compiler along with an associated object-oriented uncertainty language in the form of a stand-alone Python library. It handles the specifications of input uncertainties and inserts calls to intrusive uncertainty quantification algorithms in the library. The uncertainty compiler can apply intrusive uncertainty propagation methods to codes or parts of codes and therefore more comprehensively and flexibly address both epistemic and aleatory uncertainties.

description: The authors report the captures of 16 specimens of common angel shark Squatina squatina (Linnaeus, 1758) from the northern coast of Tunisia (central Mediterranean Sea). The present sample comprised 7 males and 9 females, their total length ranged from 800 to 1400 mm, and their eviscerated weight from 5 to 35 kg. They are large specimens and mostly of them were females. They were caught at deep bottoms (800 m), and the successfull establishment of a viable population of the species in the capture area cannot be totally ruled out. However, a management plan should be integrated in Tunisian fisheries together with the contribution of local fishermen to preserve the species of its possible exctinction in the area.

description: In weakly coupled BCS superconductors, only electrons within a tiny energy window around the Fermi energy, $E_F$, form Cooper pairs. This may not be the case in strong coupling superconductors such as cuprates, FeSe, SrTiO$_3$ or cold atom condensates where the pairing scale, $E_B$, becomes comparable or even larger than $E_F$. In cuprates, for example, a plausible candidate for the pseudogap state at low doping is a fluctuating pair density wave, but no microscopic model has yet been found which supports such a state. In this work, we write an analytically solvable model to examine pairing phases in the strongly coupled regime and in the presence of anisotropic interactions. Already for moderate coupling we find an unusual finite temperature phase, below an instability temperature $T_i$, where local pair correlations have non-zero center-of-mass momentum but lack long-range order. At low temperature, this fluctuating pair density wave can condense either to a uniform $d$-wave superconductor or the widely postulated pair-density wave phase depending on the interaction strength. Our minimal model offers a unified microscopic framework to understand the emergence of both fluctuating and long range pair density waves in realistic systems.

description: Dakhla Bay is one of the most important wetlands along the Moroccan Atlantic coastline. Studies conducted in the bay to date have mainly focused on its oceanographic features and aquaculture capacities. This paper is a report of the first study to cover all the crustacean assemblages in Dakhla Bay, its main objectives being to analyze the richness, diversity and structure of species, and their relationships with the principle environmental variables. 42 stations located across the whole bay were sampled during spring 2013 and winter 2014 using a Van Veen grab. At each station, two replicate samples were collected for macroinvertebrates and one additional replicate for sediment analyses. Single water salinity and temperature measurements were also recorded at each station. A total of 5,056 specimens were collected, allowing identification of 20 crustacean taxa. Richness, density, Shannon diversity and evenness were also estimated, to characterize the crustacean assemblage. The most abundant species in spring were Chondrochelia savignyi, Ampelisca sp., Ampithoe ramondi and Lembos cf. websteri, and in winter Ampithoe ramondi, Ampelisca sp., Cyathura carinata, Chondrochelia savignyi, and Caprella acanthifera. A cluster analysis identified three assemblages in spring and winter. This study provides new information about the structure of the soft-bottom crustacean assemblages which inhabit Dakhla Bay, and may be useful for a future impact assessment of local anthropic pressure.

Instanton-noninstanton transition in nonintegrable tunneling processes: A renormalized perturbation approach

description: The instanton-noninstanton (I-NI) transition in the tunneling process, which has been numerically observed in classically nonintegrable quantum maps, can be described by a perturbation theory based on an integrable Hamiltonian renormalized so as to incorporate the integrable part of the map. The renormalized perturbation theory is successfully applied to the two quantum maps, the Hénon and standard maps. In spite of different nature of tunneling in the two systems, the I-NI transition exhibits very common characteristics. In particular, the manifestation of I-NI transition is obviously explained by a remarkable quenching of the renormalized transition matrix element. The enhancement of tunneling probability after the transition can be understood as a sudden change of the tunneling mechanism from the instanton to quite a different mechanism supported by classical flows just outside of the stable-unstable manifolds of the saddle on the top of the potential barrier.

Isofrequency pairing of spinning particles in Schwarzschild-de Sitter spacetime

description: It has been established in Schwarzschild spacetime (and more generally in Kerr spacetime) that pairs of geometrically different timelike geodesics with the same radial and azimuthal frequencies exist in the strong field regime. The occurrence of this socalled isofrequency pairing is of relevance in view of gravitational-wave observations. In this paper we generalize the results on isofrequency pairing in two directions. Firstly, we allow for a (positive) cosmological constant, i.e., we replace the Schwarzschild spacetime with the Schwarzschild-de Sitter spacetime. Secondly, we consider not only spinless test-particles (i.e., timelike geodesics) but also test-particles with spin. In the latter case we restrict to the case that the motion is in the equatorial plane with the spin perpendicular to this plane. We find that the cosmological constant as well as the spin have distinct impacts on the description of bound motion in the frequency domain.

Sub-lethal arm damage in recruits of the seastar Luidia ciliaris (Asteroidea: Luidiidae) in a temperate marine reserve
Creators: name: DAN MINCHIN,
Publisher: name: Station Biologique de Roscoff (SBR)
Year: 2023

description: The seastar Luidia ciliaris commonly occurs on the Celtic continental shelf and where marine salinities prevail in deep bays. Strong recruitments seldom occur close inshore but was recorded within the Lough Hyne Marine Reserve, on the south coast of Ireland, in 1982. Arm-tip and greater arm loss were recorded in this seastar and presumed to be due to natural interactions. Two localities within the reserve were examined, one exposed to tidal currents with a high species diversity and a further site where currents and diversity were not as prominent. Potential predators at the two sites are considered in this study. Examination of prey showed cannibalism can occur.

description: Associations with gut microbes are believed to play crucial roles in the physiology, immune function, development and behaviour of insects. However, microbiome sequencing has recently suggested that butterflies are an anomaly, because their microbiomes do not show strong host- and developmental stage-specific associations. We experimentally manipulated butterfly larval gut microbiota and found that disrupting gut microbes had little influence on larval survival and development. Larvae of the butterflies Danaus chrysippus and Ariadne merione that fed on chemically sterilized or antibiotic-treated host plant leaves had significantly reduced bacterial loads, and their gut bacterial communities were disrupted substantially. However, neither host species treated this way suffered a significant fitness cost: across multiple experimental blocks, treated and control larvae had similar survival, growth and development. Furthermore, re-introducing microbes from the excreta of control larvae did not improve larval growth and survival. Thus, these butterfly larvae did not appear to rely on specialized gut bacteria for digestion, detoxification, biomass accumulation and metamorphosis. Our experiments thus show that dependence on gut bacteria for growth and survival is not a universal phenomenon across insects. Our findings also caution that strategies which target gut microbiomes may not always succeed in controlling Lepidopteran pests.

Creators: name: Fitzer, Samantha A.
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries

description: Electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) use has increased among the U.S. population in recent years with estimates showing that nearly 15% of American adults have tried an e-cigarette (Villarroel et al., 2020). Problem Behavior Theory (PBT) has successfully outlined a variety of factors that affect an individual’s engagement in an identified problem behavior. In an attempt to better understand e-cigarette use among an emerging adult population (i.e., college student population), the purpose of the current study was to explore how a large subset of PBT factors may differentiate between e-cigarette user categories (nonuser, non-daily user, daily user). A sample of 487 college students over the age of 18 were collected from a Mid-Atlantic university. Positive-negative functions discrepancy (i.e., the difference between the endorsed reasons for using e-cigarettes and the endorsed reasons for not using e-cigarettes), sexual identity, other substance use (i.e., marijuana and alcohol), and control from parents and friends were identified as high-ranking splitting factors across user categories. Policy makers and prevention and intervention methods should tailor their approaches to target these factors. Such changes may result in the reduction of e-cigarette use among college students.
Spin-S Kagome quantum antiferromagnets in a field with tensor networks

description: Spin-$S$ Heisenberg quantum antiferromagnets on the Kagome lattice offer, when placed in a magnetic field, a fantastic playground to observe exotic phases of matter with (magnetic analogs of) superfluid, charge, bond or nematic orders, or a coexistence of several of the latter. In this context, we have obtained the (zero temperature) phase diagrams up to $S=2$ directly in the thermodynamic limit thanks to infinite Projected Entangled Pair States (iPEPS), a tensor network numerical tool. We find incompressible phases characterized by a magnetization plateau vs field and stabilized by spontaneous breaking of point group or lattice translation symmetry(ies). The nature of such phases may be semi-classical, as the plateaus at $\frac{1}{3}$th, $(1-\frac{2}{9S})$th and $(1-\frac{1}{9S})$th of the saturated magnetization (the latter followed by a macroscopic magnetization jump), or fully quantum as the spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ $\frac{1}{9}$-plateau exhibiting coexistence of charge and bond orders. Upon restoration of the spin rotation $U(1)$ symmetry a finite compressibility appears, although lattice symmetry breaking persists. For integer spin values we also identify spin gapped phases at low enough field, such as the $S=2$ (topologically trivial) spin liquid with no symmetry breaking, neither spin nor lattice.

Morphological and molecular analyses of the meiofaunal cnidarian Otohydra sp. (Hydrozoa: Cnidaria) invalidate the taxon Actinulida

description: Meiofaunal cnidarians are less represented in the interstitial system compared to other groups. The largest genus is Halammohydra Remane, 1927, a modified medusa. Together with another medusa of the genus Otohydra Swedmark & Teissier, 1958 they classically form the taxon Actinulida. Due to major morphological differences, this relationship is in question and needed to be tested. Specimens of Otohydra were acquired from Roscoff in France, extracted from the sediment with the anesthesia-decantation method, investigated in lightmicroscopy and fixed for molecular and morphological analyses. Two genes (16S and 18S) were sequenced and analyzed in a phylogenetic context. Additionally, the cell structure was investigated with semi and ultra-thin sections. The morphological investigation in general confirms earlier investigations. Additionally, there is a gap in the epidermis on the side with the gonad and it is proposed that the juvenile is released by a rupture of the epidermis. Molecular analyses reveal no close relationship between Halammohydra and Otohydra, thus the taxon Actinulida is invalid. Sequences of Otohydra are placed within Rhopalonematidae and close to a species of Ptychogastriidae. Whether Otohydra belongs to Rhopalonematidae or Ptychogastriidae is not resolved yet and sequences of the recently found Marsipohydra pacifica Sanamyan & Sanamyan, 2012 might help with the classification.

description: We take a closer look at the structure of bivariate dependency induced by a pair of predictor random variables $(X_1, X_2)$ trying to synergistically, redundantly or uniquely encode a target random variable $Y$. We evaluate a recently proposed measure of redundancy based on the Gács-Körner common information (Griffith et al., Entropy 2014) and show that the measure, in spite of its elegance is degenerate for most non-trivial distributions. We show that Wyner's common information also fails to capture the notion of redundancy as it violates an intuitive monotonically non-increasing property. We identify a set of conditions when a conditional version of Gács and Körner's common information is an ideal measure of unique information. Finally, we show how the notions of approximately sufficient statistics and conditional information bottleneck can be used to quantify unique information.

description: This study focuses on otoliths shape and size analysis of Sarpa salpa, 204 samples were collected from two lagoons located in the north-east of Tunisia. The objectives were (1) to examine the intra- and interpopulation variation in otolith size using length (Lo), width (Wo) and area (Ao) measurements and their shapes via Fourier Elliptical Analysis, (2) to evaluate the relationship between fluctuating asymmetry following otolith biometric parameters and shape and (3) the intra- and inter-population development of otolith size and shape between 2015 and 2020. The analyses of otolith biometric data from the samples of Ghar El Melh lagoon showed a significant difference «symmetry» in length and perimeter. However, some asymmetry was detected in width and area especially in 2015. Those results were confirmed with the study of otolith shape between the right and left sides within the Ghar El Melh lagoon population in 2015 and 2020. Although in the Bizerte lagoon, having a well pronounced symmetry in four biometric parameters in 2015 and 2020, we detected a symmetry of shape in 2015 and an asymmetry in 2020. This allows us to conclude that the shape analysis is more informative and relevant than the biometric analysis. The suggested cause of the fluctuating asymmetry (FA) of otolith size and shape within and/or between the populations of the two lagoons was discussed in relation to the developmental instability induced by the environmental stress present in these stations.

description: The zeta function of an integral lattice $Λ$ is the generating function $ζ_Λ(s) = \sum\limits_{n=0}^{\infty} a_n n^{-s}$, whose coefficients count the number of left ideals of $Λ$ of index $n$. We derive a formula for the zeta function of $Λ_1 \otimes Λ_2$, where $Λ_1$ and $Λ_2$ are $\mathbb{Z}$-orders contained in finite-dimensional semisimple $\mathbb{Q}$-algebras that satisfy a "locally coprime" condition. We apply the formula obtained above to $\mathbb{Z}S \otimes \mathbb{Z}T$ and obtain the zeta function of the adjacency algebra of the direct product of two finite association schemes $(X,S)$ and $(Y,T)$ in several cases where the $\mathbb{Z}$-orders $\mathbb{Z}S$ and $\mathbb{Z}T$ are locally coprime and their zeta functions are known.

description: Non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA) systems have the potential to deliver higher system throughput, compared to contemporary orthogonal multiple access techniques. For a linearly precoded multiple-input multiple-output (MISO) system, we study the downlink sum rate maximization problem, when the NOMA principles are applied. Being a non-convex and intractable optimization problem,we resort to approximate it with a minorization-maximization algorithm (MMA), which is a widely used tool in statistics. In each step of the MMA, we solve a second-order cone program, such that the feasibility set in each step contains that of the previous one, and is always guaranteed to be a subset of the feasibility set of the original problem. It should be noted that the algorithm takes a few iterations to converge. Furthermore, we study the conditions under which the achievable rates maximization can be further simplified to a low complexity design problem, and we compute the probability of occurrence of this event. Numerical examples are conducted to show a comparison of the proposed approach against conventional multiple access systems. NOMA is reported to provide better spectral and power efficiency with a polynomial time computational complexity.

description: This paper concerns a kinetic model of the thermostated Boltzmann equation with a linear deformation force described by a constant matrix. The collision kernel under consideration includes both the Maxwell molecule and general hard potentials with angular cutoff. We construct the smooth steady solutions via a perturbation approach when the deformation strength is sufficiently small. The steady solution is a spatially homogeneous non Maxwellian state and may have the polynomial tail at large velocities. Moreover, we also establish the long time asymptotics toward steady states for the Cauchy problem on the corresponding spatially inhomogeneous equation in torus, which in turn gives the non-negativity of steady solutions.

description: Interaction of Escherichia coli MutS and MutL with heteroduplex DNA has been visualized by electron microscopy. In a reaction dependent on ATP hydrolysis, complexes between a MutS dimer and a DNA heteroduplex are converted to protein-stabilized, alpha-shaped loop structures with the mismatch in most cases located within the DNA loop. Loop formation depends on ATP hydrolysis and loop size increases linearly with time at a rate of 370 base pairs/min in phosphate buffer and about 10,000 base pairs/min in the HEPES buffer used for repair assay. These observations suggest a translocation mechanism in which a MutS dimer bound to a mismatch subsequently leaves this site by ATP-dependent tracking or unidimensional movement that is in most cases bidirectional from the mispair. In view of the bidirectional capability of the methyl-directed pathway, this reaction may play a role in determination of heteroduplex orientation. The rate of MutS-mediated DNA loop growth is enhanced by MutL, and when both proteins are present, both are found at the base of alpha-loop structures, and both can remain associated with excision intermediates produced in later stages of the reaction.

description: Previously treated as endemic to northwestern Madagascar, Pomacentrus atriaxillaris is reported for the first time from the lagoon of Mayotte Island, at a depth of 22 m. This observation confirms there is a range extension for this species and enhances the hypothesis of larval connectivity between the Comoro Archipelago and northwestern Madagascar. This paper also highlights the importance of prospecting coral pinnacles on the soft bottoms of Mayotte's lagoon to better understand of the biodiversity and ecological functions of these understudied habitats.

description: We present an analysis of the Rayleigh-Plesset equation for a three dimensional vacuous bubble in water. In the simplest case when the effects of surface tension are neglected, the known parametric solutions for the radius and time evolution of the bubble in terms of a hypergeometric function are briefly reviewed. By including the surface tension, we show the connection between the Rayleigh-Plesset equation and Abel's equation, and obtain the parametric rational Weierstrass periodic solutions following the Abel route. In the same Abel approach, we also provide a discussion of the nonintegrable case of nonzero viscosity for which we perform a numerical integration

description: The Marchica lagoon (NE Morocco, Mediterranean Sea) has faced increasing pressures from both natural and anthropogenic origins. This study aims to assess pollution levels in the lagoon by employing a biological approach in addition to physicochemical analyses. Significant variations in the biochemical composition of a panel of seaweed species were observed across different sampling sites, with richer algal matter at sites considered polluted. The maximal nitrogen contents in the studied species ranked as follows, from the highest to the lowest: Ulva sp. > Caulerpa prolifera > Gracilaria sp. > Alsidium corallinum > Chaetomorpha sp. > Cystoseira sp., while for phosphorus, the ranking was: Gracilaria sp. > Ulva sp. > Caulerpa prolifera > Alsidium corallinum > Chaetomorpha sp. > Cystoseira sp. Furthermore, significant differences were observed among the studied species with regard to nitrogen, phosphorus, soluble proteins, chlorophylls, and soluble sugars in their algal tissues. For Ulva sp., significant differences were noted among the sampling sites for nitrogen, phosphorus, soluble proteins, chlorophylls, and carotenoids. Similarly, significant differences were observed in Caulerpa prolifera, albeit only for nitrogen and chlorophyll contents. Significant seasonal variations were observed in Gracilaria sp. for nitrogen, soluble proteins, proline, and carotenoids, with only nitrogen showing significant variation across sampling sites. For the species Chaetomorpha sp., Alsidium corallinum, and Cystoseira sp., no significant variation among sampling sites were observed. These results, along with field observations, suggest that among the studied species, Ulva sp. would the best alga to efficiently reduce excess nutrients in eutrophic areas within the Marchica Lagoon.

description: We study the conductivity of graphene with a smooth but particle-hole-asymmetric disorder potential. Using perturbation theory for the weak-disorder regime and numerical calculations we investigate how the particle-hole asymmetry shifts the position of the minimal conductivity away from the Dirac point $\varepsilon = 0$. We find that the conductivity minimum is shifted in opposite directions for weak and strong disorder. For large disorder strengths the conductivity minimum appears close to the doping level for which electron and hole doped regions ("puddles") are equal in size.
