Towards the Assembly of the Binary Vinca Alkaloids: Strategies for the Synthesis of Analogues of the Indole-Indoline Core of (+)- Vinblastine
Creators: name: Harvey, Michael John
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2006
Subjects: vinblastine, vincristine, vinca alkaloids

description: The clinically important alkaloids (+)-vinblastine (1) and (+)-vincristine (2) both exhibit extraordinary potency as anti-mitotic agents and act by destabilising polymerised tubulin. While the development of a structure-activity-relationship (SAR) profile around these natural products should allow for the identification of the relevant pharmacophore, this task is especially daunting because of the structural complexity of these compounds. Indeed, most analogues of the Vinca alkaloids are obtained through modifications of the natural products rather than being generated de novo by “total synthesis”...

description: Recently, we introduced a Rydberg-atom based mixer capable of detecting and measuring the phase of a radio-frequency field through the electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) and Autler-Townes (AT) effect. The ability to measure phase with this mixer allows for an atom-based receiver to detect digital modulated communication signals. In this paper, we demonstrate detection and reception of digital modulated signals based on various phase-shift keying approaches. We demonstrate Rydberg atom-based digital reception of binary phase-shift keying (BPSK), quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK), and quadrature amplitude (QAM) modulated signals over a 19.626~GHz carrier to transmit and receive a bit stream in cesium vapor. We present measured values of Error Vector Magnitude (EVM, a common communication metric used to assess how accurate a symbol or bit stream is received) as a function of symbol rate for BPSK, QPSK, 16QAM, 32QAM, and 64QAM modulation schemes. These results allow us to discuss the bandwidth of a Rydberg-atom based receiver system.

description: We infer the origin channels of hierarchical mergers observed in the LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA (LVK) O1, O2, and O3 runs using a hierarchical Bayesian analysis under a parametric population model. By assuming the active galactic nucleus (AGN) disk and nuclear star cluster (NSC) channels, we find that NSCs likely dominate the hierarchical merger rate in the Universe, corresponding to a fraction of $f_{\rm NSC}=0.87_{-0.29}^{+0.10}$ at 90\% credible intervals in our fiducial model; AGN disks may contribute up to nearly half of hierarchical mergers detectable with LVK, specifically $f_{\rm det,AGN}=0.34_{-0.26}^{+0.38}$. We investigate the impact of the escape speed, along with other population parameters on the branching fraction, suggesting that the mass, mass ratio, and spin of the sources play significant roles in population analysis. We show that hierarchical mergers constitute at least $\sim$$10\%$ of the gravitational wave events detected by LVK during the O1-O3 runs. Furthermore, we demonstrate that it is challenging to effectively infer detailed information about the host environment based solely on the distribution of black hole merger parameters if multiple formation channels are considered.

description: Electronic structure codes are computationally intensive scientic applications used to probe and elucidate chemical processes at an atomic level. Maximizing the performance of these applications on any given hardware platform is vital in order to facilitate larger and more accurate computations. An important part of this endeavor is the development of protocols for measuring performance, and models to describe that performance as a function of system architecture. This thesis makes contributions in both areas, with a focus on shared memory parallel computer architectures and the Gaussian electronic structure code. Shared memory parallel computer systems are increasingly important as hardware man- ufacturers are unable to extract performance improvements by increasing clock frequencies. Instead the emphasis is on using multi-core processors to provide higher performance. These processor chips generally have complex cache hierarchies, and may be coupled together in multi-socket systems which exhibit highly non-uniform memory access (NUMA) characteristics. This work seeks to understand how cache characteristics and memory/thread placement affects the performance of electronic structure codes, and to develop performance models that can be used to describe and predict code performance by accounting for these effects. A protocol for performing memory and thread placement experiments on NUMA systems is presented and its implementation under both the Solaris and Linux operating systems is discussed. A placement distribution model is proposed and subsequently used to guide both memory/thread placement experiments and as an aid in the analysis of results obtained from experiments. In order to describe single threaded performance as a function of cache blocking a simple linear performance model is investigated for use when computing the electron repulsion integrals that lie at the heart of virtually all electronic structure methods. A parametric cache variation study is performed. This is achieved by combining parameters obtained for the linear performance model on existing hardware, with instruction and cache miss counts obtained by simulation, and predictions are made of performance as a function of cache architecture. Extension of the linear performance model to describe multi-threaded performance on complex NUMA architectures is discussed and investigated experimentally. Use of dynamic page migration to improve locality is also considered. Finally the use of large scale electronic structure calculations is demonstrated in a series of calculations aiming to study the charge distribution for a single positive ion solvated within a shell of water molecules of increasing size.

description: We present a theory where the statistical mechanics for dilute ideal gases can be derived from random matrix approach. We show the connection of this approach with Srednicki approach which connects Berry conjecture with statistical mechanics. We further establish a link between Berry conjecture and random matrix theory, thus providing a unified edifice for quantum chaos, random matrix theory, and statistical mechanics. In the course of arguing for these connections, we observe sum rules associated with the outstanding counting problem in the theory of braid groups. We are able to show that the presented approach leads to the second law of thermodynamics.

description: We apply the wall crossing structure formalism of Kontsevich and Soibelman to Seiberg-Witten integrable systems associated to pure $SU(3)$. This gives an algorithm for computing the Donaldson-Thomas invariants, which correspond to BPS degeneracy of the corresponding BPS states in physics. The main ingredients of this algorithm are the use of split attractor flows and Kontsevich Soibelman wall crossing formulas. Besides the known BPS spectrum in pure $SU(3)$ case, we obtain new family of BPS states with BPS-invariants equal to 2.

Binding energy of polaronic trions and biexcitons in CsPbBr$_3$ nanocrystals

description: The effect of polaron formation on the ground state of excitons, trions and biexcitons confined in CsPbBr$_3$ nanocrystals is studied in the framework of effective mass Hamiltonians, using a Haken-like (Bajaj) potential for carrier-phonon coupling. The binding energy of trions agrees well with that observed in experiments, with position-dependent dielectric screening playing a significant role. For biexcitons, however, neither polaronic effects, nor dielectric confinement, nor electronic correlations -- here accounted for with a variational Quantum Monte Carlo method -- suffice to explain the large binding energies reported by single nanocrystal spectroscopy experiments. This result reinforces the hypothesis that biexcitons polarize the perovskite lattice differently from excitons and trions.

description: Computer systems have become increasingly diverse and specialized in recent years. This complexity supports a wide range of new computing uses and users, but is not without cost: it has become difficult to maintain the efficiency of contemporary general purpose computing systems. Computing inefficiencies, which include nonoptimal runtimes, excessive energy use, and limits to scalability, are a serious problem that can result in an inability to apply computing to solve the world's most important problems. Beyond the complexity and vast diversity of modern computing platforms and applications, a number of factors make improving general purpose efficiency challenging, including the requirement that multiple levels of the computer system stack be examined, that legacy hardware devices and software may stand in the way of achieving efficiency, and the need to balance efficiency with reusability, programmability, security, and other goals.
      This dissertation presents five case studies, each demonstrating different ways in which the measurement of emerging systems can provide actionable advice to help keep general purpose computing efficient. The first of the five case studies is Parallel Block Vectors, a new profiling method for understanding parallel programs with a fine-grained, code-centric perspective aids in both future hardware design and in optimizing software to map better to existing hardware. Second is a project that defines a new way of measuring application interference on a datacenter's worth of chip-multiprocessors, leading to improved scheduling where applications can more effectively utilize available hardware resources. Next is a project that uses the GT-Pin tool to define a method for accelerating the simulation of GPGPUs, ultimately allowing for the development of future hardware with fewer inefficiencies. The fourth project is an experimental energy survey that compares and combines the latest energy efficiency solutions at different levels of the stack to properly evaluate the state of the art and to find paths forward for future energy efficiency research. The final project presented is NRG-Loops, a language extension that allows programs to measure and intelligently adapt their own power and energy use.

description: In this paper we consider bound state solutions, i.e., normalizable time-periodic solutions of the Dirac equation in the exterior region of an extreme Kerr black hole with mass $M$ and angular momentum $J$. It is shown that for each azimuthal quantum number $k$ and for particular values of $J$ the Dirac equation has a bound state solution, and that the energy of this Dirac particle is uniquely determined by $ω= -\frac{kM}{2J}$. Moreover, we prove a necessary and sufficient condition for the existence of bound states in the extreme Kerr-Newman geometry, and we give an explicit expression for the radial eigenfunctions in terms of Laguerre polynomials.

Fingerprinting analysis of non-crystalline pharmaceutical compounds using high energy X-rays and the total scattering pair distribution function

description: In the development of new medicinal products, poor oral bioavailability, due to the low solubilities of many active pharmaceutical ingredients (APIs), is increasingly a barrier for treatments to be administered using tablet or capsule formulations and one of the main challenges facing the pharmaceutical industry. Non-crystalline phases such as the amorphous and nanostructured states can confer increased solubility to a drug, and therefore, have recently garnered a lot of interest from pharmaceutical researchers. However, little is known about local ordering in non-crystalline pharmaceuticals due to the lack of reliable experimental probes, hindering the clinical application of these compounds. The powerful tools of crystallography begin to lose their potency for structures on the nanoscale; conventional X-ray powder diffraction (XRPD) patterns become broad and featureless in these cases and are not useful for differentiating between different local molecular packing arrangements. In this thesis, we introduce the use of high energy X-rays coupled with total scattering pair distribution function (TSPDF) and fingerprinting analysis to investigate the local structures of non-crystalline pharmaceutical compounds. The high energy X-rays allow us to experimentally collect diffuse scattering intensities, which contain information about a sample's local ordering, in addition to the Bragg scattering available in conventional XRPD experiments, while the TSPDF allows us to view the intra- and inter-molecular correlations in real space. The goal of this study was to address some fundamental problems involving fingerprinting non-crystalline APIs using TSPDF in order to lay the groundwork for the proper use of the technique by the pharmaceutical community. We achieved this by developing the methodology as well as the exploring the scientific implications. On the methodology side, we introduced PDFGetX3, a new software program for calculating TSPDFs that simplifies the procedure and reduces user interaction. We also set a baseline for the minimum X-ray energy that is needed for fingerprinting analysis, which had implications on the type of X-ray diffractometers that can be used. On the science side, we investigated the local structures of nanocrystalline and amorphous materials as well mixtures containing crystalline and amorphous phases. First, we identified a non-crystalline sample of the mood-stabilizing drug carbamazepine as a nanocrystalline version of one of its polymorphs. Next, we found that amorphous forms created by spray drying and cryomilling a proprietary compound have the same local structure. Finally, we quantified the phase fractions of polymorphic and amorphous components in a sample of the antibiotic sulfamerazine that was recrystallizing from a cryomilling-induced amorphous state.

description: The appearence of a new type of fast nonlinear traveling wave states in binary fluid convection with increasing Soret effect is elucidated and the parameter range of their bistability with the common slower ones is evaluated numerically. The bifurcation behavior and the significantly different spatiotemporal properties of the different wave states - e.g. frequency, flow structure, and concentration distribution - are determined and related to each other and to a convenient measure of their nonlinearity. This allows to derive a limit for the applicability of small amplitude expansions. Additionally an universal scaling behavior of frequencies and mixing properties is found.

The expressions are obtained using the method of Mano, Suzuki and Takasugi to construct analytical solutions of the Teukolsky equation, and are given as post-Newtonian expansions valid through 12PN, with arbitrary values for the inclination parameter $x$ and black hole spin $a$. We characterize the structure of the PN expansions in terms of their dependence on $x$ and $a$, and we validate our results against numerical calculations.

description: A metadata schema, named Plasma-MDS, is introduced to support research data management in plasma science. Plasma-MDS is suitable to facilitate the publication of research data following the FAIR principles in domain-specific repositories and with this the reuse of research data for data driven plasma science. In accordance with common features in plasma science and technology, the metadata schema bases on the concept to separately describe the source generating the plasma, the medium in which the plasma is operated in, the target the plasma is acting on, and the diagnostics used for investigation of the process under consideration. These four basic schema elements are supplemented by a schema element with various attributes for description of the resources, i.e. the digital data obtained by the applied diagnostic procedures. The metadata schema is first applied for the annotation of datasets published in INPTDAT -- the interdisciplinary data platform for plasma technology.

description: The silicon vacancy center in Silicon Carbide (SiC) provides an optically addressable qubit at room temperature in its spin-$\frac{3}{2}$ electronic state. However, optical spin initialization and readout are less efficient compared to those of spin-1 systems, such as nitrogen-vacancy centers in diamond, under non-resonant optical excitation. Spin-dependent fluorescence exhibits contrast only between $|m=\pm 3/2\rangle$ and $|m=\pm 1/2\rangle$ states, and optical pumping does not create a population difference between $|+1/2\rangle$ and $|-1/2\rangle$ states. Thus, operating one qubit (e.g., $\left\{|+3/2\rangle, |+1/2\rangle \right\}$ states) leaves the population in the remaining state ($|-1/2\rangle$) unaffected, contributing to background in optical readout. To mitigate this problem, we propose a sensing scheme based on duplex qubit operation in the quartet, using microwave pulses with two resonant frequencies to simultaneously operate $\left\{ |+3/2\rangle, |+1/2\rangle \right\}$ and $\left\{ |-1/2\rangle, |-3/2\rangle \right\}$. Experimental results demonstrate that this approach doubles signal contrast in optical readout and improves sensitivity in AC magnetometry compared to simplex operation.

description: Superconductivity often emerges as a dome around a quantum critical point (QCP) where long-range order is suppressed to zero temperature. So far, this has been mostly studied in magnetically ordered materials. By contrast, the interplay between charge order and superconductivity at a QCP is not fully understood. Here, we present resistance measurements proving that a dome of superconductivity surrounds the charge-density-wave (CDW) QCP in pristine samples of 1$T$-TiSe$_2$ tuned with hydrostatic pressure. Furthermore, we use quantum oscillation measurements to show that the superconductivity sets in at a Lifshitz transition in the electronic band structure. We use density functional theory to identify the Fermi pockets enabling superconductivity: large electron and hole pockets connected by the CDW wave vector $\vec{Q}$ which emerge upon partial suppression of the zero-pressure CDW gap. Hence, we conclude that superconductivity is of interband type enabled by the presence of hole and electron bands connected by the CDW $\vec{Q}$ vector. Earlier calculations show that interband interactions are repulsive, which suggests that unconventional s$_{\pm}$ superconductivity is realised in TiSe$_2$ - similar to the iron pnictides. These results highlight the importance of Lifshitz transitions in realising unconventional superconductivity and help understand its interaction with CDW order in numerous materials.

title: Transgenerational Effects of Structural Enrichment in Danio rerio
Creators: name: Green, M
Publisher: name: Liverpool John Moores University
Year: 2021

description: This thesis examines the potential for the inheritance of environmental information in the highly social teleost fish, Danio rerio. I performed a series of studies over four data chapters that examined the effects of varying levels of environmental enrichment (EE) across three generations. I aimed to examine the effects of EE on physiology, brain function and behaviour. To do this, I utilized a combination of video tracking in a novel open tank group shoaling test, larvae movement trials, high resolution imaging of morphology, and adult whole brain gene expression analysis. Taken together, these studies indicate that variation in levels of enrichment is associated with changes in complex behaviours and morphologies, which can be inherited through the paternal germline. The analysis of larvae movement and shape performed here shows that changes in locomotor activity may be established in early development, as subtle changes in developmental timing are found. The results here also show that changes in locomotor activity are stably inherited between generations, whereas changes in social traits are not. Although there were changes in social behaviours within generations, there were no inherited effects of on shoal cohesion. I targeted the expression of two nonapeptides known to be involved in the regulation of social behaviour in fish species, arginine vasotocin (AVT) and isotocin (IT) and found that changes to social traits in the first generation appear to be associated with changes in whole-brain AVT expression. The disparity in the heritability of these two behavioural realms found here is particularly interesting and provides the potential for further investigation.

description: I describe three ways that the spatial properties of a wave propagation medium can cause dispersion, and propose that they should form the basics for correctly understanding and naming phenomena described as "spatial dispersion". In particular, I emphasise the specific spatial properties which generate the resulting dispersive -- i.e. spatially dispersive -- behaviour. The mechanisms are geometry, structure, and dynamics.

description: Open burning of biomass and anthropogenic waste is a major source of aerosols at the biosphere-atmosphere interface, yet its impact on Earth’s climate and air quality is not fully understood due to the intricate feedbacks between the natural environment and human activities. Earth system models (ESMs) are a vital tool in the study of these aerosol-biosphere-atmosphere interactions. ESMs allow the estimation of radiative forcing and climate impacts in terms of changes to temperature and precipitation as well as the attribution to natural or anthropogenic drivers. To provide coherent results, however, ESMs require rigorous development and evaluation against observations. In my work I use the NASA-GISS ESM: ModelE. One of its strengths lie in its detailed aerosol schemes that include microphysics and thermodynamic partitioning, both necessary for the simulation of secondary inorganic aerosols. To overcome one of ModelE’s weaknesses, namely its lack of interactive biomass burning (BB) emissions, I developed pyre: ModelE’s interactive fire emissions module. pyrE is driven by flammability and cloud-to-ground lightning, both of which are calculated in ModelE, and anthropogenic ignition and regional suppression parameterizations, based on population density data. Notably, the interactive fire emissions are generated from the flaming phase in pyrE (fire count), rather than the scar left behind (burned area), which is commonly used in other interactive fire modules. The performance of pyrE was evaluated against MODIS satellite retrievals and GFED4s inventory, as well as simulations with prescribed emissions. Although the simulated fire count is bias-high compared to MODIS, simulated fire emissions are bias-low compared to GFED4s. However, the bias in total emissions does not propagate to atmospheric composition, as pyrE simulates aerosol optical depth just as well as a simulation with GFED4s prescribed emissions. Upon the development and evaluation of the fire-aerosol capabilities of ModelE, I have utilized it, with the EVA health model, to study the health impacts of outdoor smoke in 1950, 2015, and 2050. I find that chronic exposure to aerosols (PM2.5) is the main driver of premature deaths from smoke exposure, yet by 2050, acute exposure to ozone, formed downwind of BB smoke plumes, is projected to cause more premature deaths than exposure to PM2.5. I estimate the annual premature deaths from BB and waste burning (WB) smoke in 1950 to be ~41,000 and ~19,000, respectively, and in 2015 to be ~310,000 and ~840,000, respectively. By 2050 I project 390,000 and 1.5 million premature deaths from BB and WB respectively. In light of the growing impact of WB smoke exposure I identify the need to scale up viable waste management practices in regions of rapid population growth.

description: This article explores how a submerged elastic plate, clamped at one edge, interacts with water waves. Submerged elastic plates have been considered as potentially effective design elements in the development of wave energy harvesters but their behavior in a wave field remains largely unexplored, especially experimentally. Positioned at a fixed depth in a wave tank, the flexible plate demonstrates significant wave reflection capabilities, a characteristic absent in rigid plates of identical dimensions. The experiments thus reveal that plate motion is crucial for wave reflection. Sufficiently steep waves are shown to induce a change in the mean position of the plate, with the trailing edge reaching the free surface in some cases. This configuration change is found to be particularly efficient to break water waves. These findings contribute to understanding the potential of elastic plates for wave energy harvesting and wave attenuation scenarios.

description: The quantum kicked rotor is investigated by field theoretical methods. It is shown that the effective theory describing the long wave length physics of the system is precisely the supersymmetric nonlinear sigma-model for quasi one-dimensional metallic wires. This proves that the analogy between chaotic systems with dynamical localization and disordered metals can indeed be exact. The role of symmetries is discussed.
description: Some changes in connection with the discussion of the rotor's localization length have been made (cf. last paragraph)

description: The germanium (Ge) hut wire system has strong spin-orbit coupling, a long coherence time due to a very large heavy-light hole splitting, and the advantage of site-controlled large-scale hut wire positioning. These properties make the Ge hut wire a promising candidate for the realization of strong coupling of spin to superconducting resonators and scalability for multiple qubit coupling. We have coupled a reflection line resonator to a hole double quantum dot (DQD) formed in Ge hut wire. The amplitude and phase responses of the microwave resonator revealed that the charge stability diagrams of the DQD are in good agreement with those obtained from transport measurements. The DQD interdot tunneling rate is shown to be tunable from 6.2 GHz to 8.5 GHz, which demonstrates the ability to adjust the frequency detuning between the qubit and the resonator. Furthermore, we achieved a hole-resonator coupling strength of up to 15 MHz, with a charge qubit decoherence rate of 0.28 GHz. Meanwhile the hole spin-resonator coupling rate was estimated to be 3 MHz. These results suggest that holes of a DQD in a Ge hut wire are dipole coupled to microwave photons, potentially enabling tunable hole spin-photon interactions in Ge with an inherent spin-orbit coupling.

description: Building on work of Davenport and Schmidt, we mainly prove two results. The first one is a version of Gel'fond's transcendence criterion which provides a sufficient condition for a complex or $p$-adic number $ξ$ to be algebraic in terms of the existence of polynomials of bounded degree taking small values at $ξ$ together with most of their derivatives. The second one, which follows from this criterion by an argument of duality, is a result of simultaneous approximation by conjugate algebraic integers for a fixed number $ξ$ that is either transcendental or algebraic of sufficiently large degree. We also present several constructions showing that these results are essentially optimal.
description: The section 4 of this new version has been rewritten to simplify the proof of the main result. Other results in Sections 9 and 10 have been improved. To appear in Compositio Math

Historic preservation

description: Stone is often perceived as an enduring material. However, there are many forces that act on stone to cause its destruction. Of these forces, fire causes sudden and often irreversible damage on a large scale, and is a risk to every building. As such an uncontrollable phenomenon, both the immediate and long-term effects of fire damage on stone are only partially understood. Through both oven heating and direct flame testing, this thesis explores the effects of fire damage on four common stone types: Cold Spring granite, Indiana limestone, Vermont marble, and Portland sandstone. In addition, the potential damage caused by "shocking" the stone with cold water and thereby creating a temperature differential was tested through the quenching of a portion of both oven and flame-heated samples. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate immediate effects, such as color change and structural instability, while simultaneously exploring the relationship between temperature, flame, quenching, and long-term durability.

description: BRICKxAR is a novel Augmented Reality (AR) instruction method for construction toys such as LEGO. With BRICKxAR, physical LEGO construction is guided by virtual bricks. Compared with the state-of-the-art, accuracy of the virtual - physical model alignment is significantly improved through a new design of marker-based registration, which can achieve an average error less than 1mm throughout the model. Realistic object occlusion is accomplished to reveal the true spatial relationship between physical and virtual bricks. LEGO players' hand detection and occlusion are realized to visualize the correct spatial relationship between real hands and virtual bricks, and allow virtual bricks to be "grasped" by real hands. The integration of these features makes AR instructions possible for small-parts assembly, validated through a working AR prototype for constructing LEGO Arc de Triomphe, quantitative measures of the accuracies of registration and occlusions, and heuristic evaluation of AR instruction features.
