description: The growing usage of nanoparticles of zinc sulfide as quantum dots and biosensors calls for a theoretical assessment of interactions of ZnS with biomolecules. We employ the molecular-dynamics-based umbrella sampling method to determine potentials of mean force for 20 single amino acids near the ZnS (110) surface in aqueous solutions. We find that five amino acids do not bind at all and the binding energy of the remaining amino acids does not exceed 4.3 kJ/mol. Such energies are comparable to those found for ZnO (and to hydrogen bonds in proteins) but the nature of the specificity is different. Cysteine can bind with ZnS in a covalent way, e.g. by forming the disulfide bond with S in the solid. If this effect is included within a model incorporating the Morse potential, then the potential well becomes much deeper - the binding energy is close to 98 kJ/mol. We then consider tryptophan cage, a protein of 20 residues, and characterize its events of adsorption to ZnS. We demonstrate the relevance of interactions between the amino acids in the selection of optimal adsorbed conformations and recognize the key role of cysteine in generation of lasting adsorption. We show that ZnS is more hydrophobic than ZnO and that the density profile of water is quite different than that forming near ZnO - it has only a minor articulation into layers. Furthermore, the first layer of water is disordered and mobile.

description: The conceptual basis for understanding the interplay of neutrino mass and mixing for neutrino oscillations were paradoxically discussed in a period when the prevailing view was that of massless neutrinos. The name of Bruno Pontecorvo is associated to most of the components for this beautiful quantum phenomenon: muon-electron universality, different neutrino flavours, mismatch between weak interaction and mass eigenstates, neutrino oscillation phenomenology, including flavour and Majorana transitions.

description: We show that, independently of the scalar field potential and of specific asymptotic properties of the spacetime (asymptotically flat, de Sitter or anti-de Sitter), any static, spherically symmetric or planar, black hole or soliton solution of the Einstein theory minimally coupled to a real scalar field with a general potential is mode stable under linear odd-parity perturbations. To this end, we generalize the Regge-Wheeler equation for a generic self-interacting scalar field, and show that the potential of the relevant Schrödinger operator can be mapped, by the so-called S-deformation, to a semi-positively defined potential. With these results at hand we study the existence of slowly rotating configurations. The frame dragging effect is compared with the Kerr black hole.

description: Although these two chemistry journals have a long tradition behind them, they have not shied away from changes! Did you know, for example, that “Berichte” and “Annalen” have published in English - no longer in German - since 1995? The two journals have also been allocated specific interest areas, and another big move took place at the beginning of this year: the merger with the Dutch “Recueil des Travaux Chimiques des Pays-Bas”. To accommodate all these changes, widescale reorganization had to take place. However, not only did the daily work continue, but another major and exciting development took place in the background: the changeover to electronic manuscript processing. (For an update see http://www.wiley-vch.de). The results of these efforts are concrete and can be seen on the pages of the journals every month.

description: A theory for the collective plasma excitations in a linear periodic array of spherical two-dimensional electron gases (S2DEGs) is presented. This is a simple model for an ultra thin and narrow microribbon of fullerenes or metallic shells. Coulomb coupling between electrons located on the same sphere and on different spheres is included in the random-phase approximation (RPA). Electron hopping between spheres is neglected in these calculations. The resulting plasmon-dispersion equation is solved numerically. Results are presented for a superlattice of single-wall S2DEGs as a function of the wave vector. The plasmon dispersions are obtained for different spherical separations. We show that the one-dimensional translational symmetry of the lattice is maintained in the plasmon spectrum. Additionally, we compare the plasmon dispersion when the superlatice direction is parallel or perpendicular to the axis of quantization. However, because of anisotropy in the Coulomb matrix elements, there is anticrossing in the plasmon dispersion only in the direction perpendicular to the quantization axis. The S2DEG may serve as a simple model for fullerenes, when their energy bands are far apart.

description: Beach erosion occurs along a large part of the Belgian coast, but is often more intense at Knokke. Artificial nourishment of the active beach system is one of the most applied and successful measures to prevent and to cope with erosion. After repeated beach nourishments over the past decades, a major scheme is now being implemented: a combined large beach and shoreface nourishment of a total of approximately 3 million m3 of sand for the Knokke area in the period 2020 – 2025. The aim of this study is to understand the hydrodynamics and morphodynamics of the Knokke area and to evaluate the mega-nourishment. This 2nd year progress report focuses on coastal morphodynamics along the Belgian coast from Zeebrugge harbour to east of the Zwin between 2018-2021. The results clearly indicate the significant effect of the nourishments on the beach and shoreface morphology. Future topographic and bathymetric monitoring and use of digital survey data of the morphology immediately after each nourishment stage will allow to document and understand the ensuing morphological development and efficiency of the nourishments.

description: SURFSUP is a joint Spitzer and HST Exploration Science program using 10 galaxy clusters as cosmic telescopes to study z >~ 7 galaxies at intrinsically lower luminosities, enabled by gravitational lensing, than blank field surveys of the same exposure time. Our main goal is to measure stellar masses and ages of these galaxies, which are the most likely sources of the ionizing photons that drive reionization. Accurate knowledge of the star formation density and star formation history at this epoch is necessary to determine whether these galaxies indeed reionized the universe. Determination of the stellar masses and ages requires measuring rest frame optical light, which only Spitzer can probe for sources at z >~ 7, for a large enough sample of typical galaxies. Our program consists of 550 hours of Spitzer/IRAC imaging covering 10 galaxy clusters with very well-known mass distributions, making them extremely precise cosmic telescopes. We combine our data with archival observations to obtain mosaics with ~30 hours exposure time in both 3.6$μ$m and 4.5$μ$m in the central 4 arcmin x 4 arcmin field and ~15 hours in the flanking fields. This results in 3-$σ$ sensitivity limits of ~26.6 and ~26.2AB magnitudes for the central field in the IRAC 3.6 and 4.5$μ$m bands, respectively. To illustrate the survey strategy and characteristics we introduce the sample, present the details of the data reduction and demonstrate that these data are sufficient for in-depth studies of z >~ 7 sources (using a z=9.5 galaxy behind MACSJ1149.5+2223 as an example). For the first cluster of the survey (the Bullet Cluster) we have released all high-level data mosaics and IRAC empirical PSF models. In the future we plan to release these data products for the entire survey.

description: We briefly review why the non-linear realisation of the semi-direct product of a group with one of its representations leads to a field theory defined on a generalised space-time equipped with a generalised vielbein. We give formulae, which only involve matrix multiplication, for the generalised vielbein, the Cartan forms and their transformations. We consider the generalised space-time introduced in 2003 in the context of the non-linear realisation of the semi-direct product of E(11) and its first fundamental representation. For this latter theory we give explicit expressions for the generalised vielbein up to and including the levels associated with the dual graviton in four, five and eleven dimensions and for the IIB theory in ten dimensions. We also compute the generalised vielbein, up to the analogous level, for the non-linear realisation of the semi-direct product of very extended SL(2) with its first fundamental representation, which is a theory associated with gravity in four dimensions.

description: In friendship networks, individuals have different numbers of friends, and the closeness or intimacy between an individual and her friends is heterogeneous. Using a statistical filtering method to identify relationships about who depends on whom, we construct dependence networks (which are directed) from weighted friendship networks of avatars in more than two hundred virtual societies of a massively multiplayer online role-playing game (MMORPG). We investigate the evolution of triadic motifs in dependence networks. Several metrics show that the virtual societies evolved through a transient stage in the first two to three weeks and reached a relatively stable stage. We find that the unidirectional loop motif (${\rm{M}}_9$) is underrepresented and does not appear, open motifs are also underrepresented, while other close motifs are overrepresented. We also find that, for most motifs, the overall level difference of the three avatars in the same motif is significantly lower than average, whereas the sum of ranks is only slightly larger than average. Our findings show that avatars' social status plays an important role in the formation of triadic motifs.

Inverse transport calculations in optical imaging with subspace optimization algorithms

description: Inverse boundary value problems for the radiative transport equation play important roles in optics-based medical imaging techniques such as diffuse optical tomography (DOT) and fluorescence optical tomography (FOT). Despite the rapid progress in the mathematical theory and numerical computation of these inverse problems in recent years, developing robust and efficient reconstruction algorithms remains as a challenging task and an active research topic. We propose here a robust reconstruction method that is based on subspace minimization techniques. The method splits the unknown transport solution (or a functional of it) into low-frequency and high-frequency components, and uses singular value decomposition to analytically recover part of low-frequency information. Minimization is then applied to recover part of the high-frequency components of the unknowns. We present some numerical simulations with synthetic data to demonstrate the performance of the proposed algorithm.
Kerr-AdS Black Holes and Force-Free Magnetospheres

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We obtain analogs of the Blandford-Znajek split monopole solution for force-free magnetospheres around a slowly rotating Kerr-AdS black hole. For small black holes, we find an analytic solution to first order in the ratio of horizon radius to AdS scale, $r_H/l$, which exhibits a radial Poynting flux and for $r_H/l \rightarrow 0$ smoothly approaches the Blandford-Znajek configuration in an asymptotically flat Kerr background. However, for large Kerr-AdS black holes with $r_H/l > 1$, namely those for which the bulk black hole holographically describes the thermodynamics of a strongly-interacting boundary field theory, the existence of a globally well-defined timelike Killing vector external to the horizon suggests the absence of energy extraction through the Blandford-Znajek process. In this regime, we find that at least for slow rotation the force-free solution still exists but exhibits a range of angular velocities for the field lines, corresponding to the freedom in the dual field theory to rotate a magnetic field through a neutral plasma. As a byproduct of this work, we also obtain an analytic solution for a rotating monopole magnetosphere in pure AdS, analogous to the Michel solution in flat space.

description: The azulenes 3a,b, 6a,b, 9, 12 and 15 ethynylated in the five-membered ring were prepared by Pd-catalysed cross-coupling of the corresponding iodoazulenes 1a,b, 4a,b, 7, 10 and 13, respectively, with trimethylsilylacetylene and subsequent desilylation. The synthesis of some acyclic oligomers 23–30, 32–36 and 38–40 from these ethynylazulenes could be accomplished by oxidative Eglinton coupling as well as Pd/Cu-catalysed cross-coupling reactions with the appropriate iodoazulenes 1a,b, 4b, 31 and 34. The UV/Vis spectra of the novel oligomers 32, 35 and 36 allow an estimation of the bandgap (Eg) of poly(1,3-azulenylethynylene)s lower than 2 eV.

description: To ensure a successful endodontic treatment, it is important to have a proper disinfection of the root canal. The current study compares the root canal cleanliness and smear layer score between sonic and ultrasonic activation. Systematic literature review was implemented, using 12 databases. All in vitro studies comparing the efficacy of sonic and ultrasonic activation and reporting at least one outcome of interest were included. At the apical level, pooling the data in the random-effects model (I2=64%, p = .1) revealed a statistically significant lower smear layer score within the sonic activation group (MD-0.48; 95% CI-0.92, −0.04; p = .03). Furthermore, there was a statistically significant lower push-out bond strength value among the sonic group, in contrast to the ultrasonic group at the middle (MD-0.69; 95% CI-1.13, −0.25; p = .002) and at the apical levels (MD-0.78; 95% CI-1.09, −0.46; p < .0001) of the root canal. Sonic activation accomplished advancement relative to ultrasonic agitation in removing the smear layer, while ultrasonic activation resulted in significant cohesion between the sealers and the dentine tubules, decreasing the vulnerability of apical leakage and tooth fracture.

description: In this paper a signal denoising scheme based on Empirical mode decomposition (EMD) is presented. The denoising method is a fully data driven approach. Noisy signal is decomposed adaptively into intrinsic oscillatory components called Intrinsic mode functions (IMFs) using a decomposition algorithm called sifting process. The basic principle of the method is to decompose a speech signal into segments each frame is categorised as either signal-dominant or noise-dominant then reconstruct the signal with IMFs signal dominant frame previously filtered or thresholded. It is shown, on the basis of intensive simulations that EMD improves the signal to noise ratio and address the problem of signal degradation. The denoising method is applied to real signal with different noise levels and the results compared to Winner and universal threshold of DONOHO and JOHNSTONE [11] with soft and hard tresholding. The effect of level noise value on the performances of the proposed denoising is analysed. The study is limited to signals corrupted by additive white Gaussian random noise.

description: We study the generation of 2D turbulence in Faraday waves by investigating the creation of spatially periodic vortices in this system. Measurements which couple a diffusing light imaging technique and particle tracking algorithms allow the simultaneous observation of the three-dimensional fluid motion and of the temporal changes in the wave field topography. Quasi-standing waves are found to coexist with a spatially extended fluid transport. More specifically, the destruction of regular patterns of oscillons coincides with the emergence of a complex fluid motion whose statistics are similar to that of two-dimensional turbulence. We reveal that a lattice of oscillons generates vorticity at the oscillon scale in the horizontal flow. The interaction of these vortices explain how 2D turbulence is fueled by almost standing waves. Remarkably, the curvature of Lagrangian trajectories reveals a "footprint" of the forcing scale vortices in fully developed turbulence. 2D Navier-Stokes turbulence should be considered a source of disorder in Faraday waves. These findings also provide a new paradigm for vorticity creation in 2D flows.

Based on historical price information, the machine learning models will forecast next day returns of the target stock. A customized trading strategy will then take the model prediction as input and generate actual buy/sell orders and send them to a market simulator where the orders are executed. After training on available data at a particular time interval, this application will back test on out of sample data at a future time interval. The tool extensively uses D3.Js, R, Excel VBA and Phantom JS to provide an integrated appication that not only automatically fetches the data from the web but also develops models, creates interactive hovering data label charts on excel and also test the accuracy of the predictions just at the click of a button! Though the models are very basic, the automation mechanism is effective and can be use by people who still want to rely on basic excel apps for stock data analytics (Tool Demo available here: https://youtu.be/VBx7Ik6aw7c) (Soft Copy of application available here: https://osf.io/6gh8m/ - Scroll down - Archive file available under "Files" heading)

description: This paper provides a method based on rigorous coupled wave analysis for the calculation of the radiative thermal capacitance between a layer that is patterned with arbitrary, periodically repeating features and a planar one. This method is applied to study binary gratings and arrays of beams with a rectangular cross section. The effects of the structure size and spacing on the thermal capacitance are investigated. In all of these calculations, a comparison is made with an effective medium theory which becomes increasingly accurate as the structure sizes fall well below the relevant resonance wavelength. Results show that new levels of control over the magnitude and spectral contributions to thermal capacitance can be achieved with corrugated structures relative to planar ones.

description: The semiconductor tracker is a silicon microstrip detector forming part of the inner tracking system of the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. The operation and performance of the semiconductor tracker during the first years of LHC running are described. More than 99% of the detector modules were operational during this period, with an average intrinsic hit efficiency of (99.74 +/- 0.04)%. The evolution of the noise occupancy is discussed, and measurements of the Lorentz angle, delta-ray production and energy loss presented. The alignment of the detector is found to be stable at the few-micron level over long periods of time. Radiation damage measurements, which include the evolution of detector leakage currents, are found to be consistent with predictions and are used in the verification of radiation background simulations.

description: A search for supersymmetry is presented in events with a single charged lepton, electron or muon, and multiple hadronic jets. The data correspond to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb$^{-1}$ of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of 13 TeV, recorded by the CMS experiment at the CERN LHC. The search targets gluino pair production, where the gluinos decay into final states with the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP) and either a top quark-antiquark ($\mathrm{t\bar{t}}$) pair, or a light-flavor quark-antiquark ($\mathrm{q\bar{q}}$) pair and a virtual or on-shell W boson. The main backgrounds, $\mathrm{t\bar{t}}$ pair and W+jets production, are suppressed by requirements on the azimuthal angle between the momenta of the lepton and of its reconstructed parent W boson candidate, and by top quark and W boson identification based on a machine-learning technique. The number of observed events is consistent with the expectations from standard model processes. Limits are evaluated on supersymmetric particle masses in the context of two simplified models of gluino pair production. Exclusions for gluino masses reach up to 2130 (2280) GeV at 95% confidence level for a model with gluino decay to a $\mathrm{t\bar{t}}$ pair (a $\mathrm{q\bar{q}}$ pair and a W boson) and the LSP. For the same models, limits on the mass of the LSP reach up to 1270 (1220) GeV.

description: We present predictions for the photon energy spectrum in inclusive $B\to X_s\gamma$ decays mediated by the electromagnetic penguin operator $O_7$ to N$^3$LL$'$. We use soft-collinear effective theory (SCET) to resum the singular contributions in the peak region at large photon energy. In the tail region the resummed predictions are matched to fixed order at N$^3$LO, where we include the known fixed-order contributions for $O_7$ up to $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_s^2)$. We develop a method to suitably parametrize the still unknown $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_s^3)$ nonsingular corrections in terms of theory nuisance parameters, whose variations provide an estimate of the associated theory uncertainty. In this context, we also study different ways to treat higher-order cross terms in the matching. Another important aspect of our analysis is the short-distance scheme used for the $b$-quark mass $m_b$. We find that in the present context, the 1$S$ mass scheme, which was previously used up to 2-loop order, fails to work at 3-loop order, because the mass scheme enters at a soft scale much smaller than $m_b$ here, for which the 1$S$ scheme was not devised. Using instead the MSR mass scheme with $R\sim 1\,\mathrm{GeV}$, we obtain stable results with good perturbative convergence up to N$^3$LL$'$.

description: We present a neutrino mass model based on modular symmetry with the fewest input parameters to date, which successfully accounts for the 12 lepton masses and mixing parameters through 6 real free parameters including the modulus. The neutrino masses are predicted to be normal ordering, the atmospheric angle $\theta_{23}$ is quite close to maximal value and the Dirac CP phase $\delta_{CP}$ is about $1.34\pi$. We also study the soft supersymmetry breaking terms due to the modulus $F$-term in this minimal model, which are constrained to be the non-holomorphic modular forms. The radiative lepton flavor violation process $\mu\to e\gamma$ is discussed.

description: With the increasing number of exoplanets discovered, statistical properties of the population as a whole become unique constraints on planet formation models provided a link between the description of the detailed processes playing a role in this formation and the observed population can be established. Planet population synthesis provides such a link. The approach allows to study how different physical models of individual processes (e.g., proto-planetary disc structure and evolution, planetesimal formation, gas accretion, migration, etc.) affect the overall properties of the population of emerging planets. By necessity, planet population synthesis relies on simplified descriptions of complex processes. These descriptions can be obtained from more detailed specialised simulations of these processes. The objective of this chapter is twofold: 1) provide an overview of the physics entering in the two main approaches to planet population synthesis and 2) present some of the results achieved as well as illustrate how it can be used to extract constraints on the models and to help interpret observations.

description: Despite recent advancements, diarrhoea and respiratory infections continue to be the one of main causes of mortality in children under the age of five worldwide. Multiple studies have recommended that optimal breastfeeding practices, including exclusive breastfeeding during the first six months of life are one of the most effective interventions for decreasing the prevalence of diarrhoea and acute respiratory infections in infants. However, the preventive effect of exclusive breastfeeding on diarrhoea and acute respiratory infections on infants 0-6 months of age have remained under-investigated in South Asia. This thesis is divided into two individual studies. The first study (narrative review) aimed to critically analyze the literature on the association between exclusive breastfeeding and childhood infections in children under the age of five. The second study (secondary analysis of cross-sectional data) explored the association between exclusive breastfeeding and other infant and young child feeding indicators (namely early initiation of breastfeeding and bottle feeding) and diarrhoea, acute respiratory infection, and fever in infants (0-6 months) in South Asian countries. This used data derived from the most recent Demographic and Health Surveys for the following countries and survey years: Afghanistan (2015), Bangladesh (2017-2018), India (2019-2021), Nepal (2016), Pakistan (2017-2018). Results from the narrative review of 70 studies concluded that 85% of the included studies overall found a positive association between exclusive breastfeeding and reduced risk of infections and several studies reported that longer duration of exclusive breastfeeding was protective against many infectious diseases. It further noted that some papers used a different definition to measure exclusive breastfeeding from the World Health Organization’s definition. The second study found that exclusive breastfeeding was associated with lower odds of diarrhoea and fever in Afghanistan (aOR: 0.49, 95% CI 0.35, 0.70), (aOR: 0.36, 95% CI 0.26, 0.50) and India (aOR: 0.80, 95% CI 0.70, 0.91), (aOR: 0.75, 95% CI 0.67, 0.84) respectively. Exclusive breastfeeding was also associated with lower odds of acute respiratory infection in Afghanistan (aOR: 0.57, 95% CI 0.39, 0.83). Results from the other South Asian countries indicated the protective effect of EBF, however these results did not provide evidence of an association. Bottle feeding was associated with higher risk of acute respiratory infection in Afghanistan. Bottle fed infants also had a higher risk of diarrhoea in India and Nepal. Bottle feeding was significantly associated with higher risk of fever in Afghanistan and India. Early initiation of breastfeeding was significantly associated with a lower risk of diarrhoea in India.

description: Recently fabricated two dimensional (2D) phosphorene crystal structures have demonstrated great potential in applications of electronics. Mechanical strain was demonstrated to be able to significantly modify the electronic properties of phosphorene and few-layer black phosphorus. In this work, we employed first principles density functional theory calculations to explore the mechanical properties of phosphorene, including ideal tensile strength and critical strain. It was found that a monolayer phosphorene can sustain tensile strain up to 27% and 30% in the zigzag and armchair directions, respectively. This enormous strain limit of phosphorene results from its unique puckered crystal structure. We found that the tensile strain applied in the armchair direction stretches the pucker of phosphorene, rather than significantly extending the P-P bond lengths. The compromised dihedral angles dramatically reduce the required strain energy. Compared to other 2D materials such as graphene, phosphorene demonstrates superior flexibility with an order of magnitude smaller Young modulus. This is especially useful in practical large-magnitude-strain engineering. Furthermore, the anisotropic nature of phosphorene was also explored. We derived a general model to calculate the Young modulus along different directions for a 2D system.

description: Under the Human Biomonitoring Initiative in Europe (HBM4EU), Human Biomonitoring (HBM) based indicators are being developed that can help answer relevant policy questions focusing on chemical exposure. These policy questions are addressed in the scoping
 documents for each prioritised substance/substance group within the project.
 HBM-based indicators may help to illustrate research results in an easy and interpretable way, as well as allowing for an evaluation of policy effectiveness. In previous deliverables, data quality of the limited datasets available in the HBM4EU repository was discussed (AD5.3 Indicator template preparation), after which indicator examples were done to illustrate the use of the indicators to answer policy questions for future use (AD5.5 Generating indicators incorporating Human Biomonitoring GuidanceValues (HBM-GVs)). In the meantime, the harmonised data from the HBM4EU aligned studies has become available and the aim of this current deliverable is to produce indicators to: Summarise exposure levels per sampling site Follow up sub-groups using stratifiers such as: gender, age, socio-economic status (SES), country, year (time trends and monitor differences after enforcement of new legislation). For this purpose, two different types of HBM-based indicators are visualised:
 Result indicators that will present time and spatial trends of HBM exposure data, using P50 and P95 values. Quantitative and qualitative analysis will allow an evaluation on policy effectiveness Impact indicators, using P95 values, that place HBM data in a health risk context by including the respective HBM-GVs Result indicators are descriptive and allow us to respond the question “What are current internal exposures?”. These are a good way to track policy efficacy (“Are the measures working?”)
 Impact indicators are produced for substances for which f HBM-GVs are available. They are used to assess health impacts (“Are we better off?”). Therefore, a close exchange between T5.2 (Development and consolidation of HBM guidance values (HBM-GVs)) and
 T5.4 (HBM-based indicators) is necessary.
 This Additional Deliverable will show first examples of HBM-based indicators with the data from the HBM4EU aligned studies (status: 31/08/ 2021).
 Indicators were derived for cadmium, bisphenol, phthalates and DINCH and PFAS with data from DEMOCOPHES, and the HBM4EU aligned studies.

description: We study coherent wave scattering through waveguides with a step-like surface disorder and find distinct enhancements in the reflection coefficients at well-defined resonance values. Based on detailed numerical and analytical calculations, we can unambiguously identify the origin of these reflection resonances to be higher-order correlations in the surface disorder profile which are typically neglected in similar studies of the same system. A remarkable feature of this new effect is that it relies on the longitudinal correlations in the step profile, although individual step heights are random and thus completely uncorrelated. The corresponding resonances are very pronounced and robust with respect to ensemble averaging, and lead to an enhancement of wave reflection by more than one order of magnitude.
