description: The internal rotation of post-main sequence stars is investigated, in response to the convective pumping of angular momentum toward the stellar core, combined with a tight magnetic coupling between core and envelope. The spin evolution is calculated using model stars of initial mass 1, 1.5 and $5\,M_\odot$, taking into account mass loss on the giant branches. We also include the deposition of orbital angular momentum from a sub-stellar companion, as influenced by tidal drag along with the excitation of orbital eccentricity by a fluctuating gravitational quadrupole moment. A range of angular velocity profiles $Ω(r)$ is considered in the envelope, extending from solid rotation to constant specific angular momentum. We focus on the back reaction of the Coriolis force, and the threshold for dynamo action in the inner envelope. Quantitative agreement with measurements of core rotation in subgiants and post-He core flash stars by Kepler is obtained with a two-layer angular velocity profile: uniform specific angular momentum where the Coriolis parameter ${\rm Co} \equiv Ωτ_{\rm con} \lesssim 1$ (here $τ_{\rm con}$ is the convective time); and $Ω(r) \propto r^{-1}$ where ${\rm Co} \gtrsim 1$. The inner profile is interpreted in terms of a balance between the Coriolis force and angular pressure gradients driven by radially extended convective plumes. Inward angular momentum pumping reduces the surface rotation of subgiants, and the need for a rejuvenated magnetic wind torque. The co-evolution of internal magnetic fields and rotation is considered in Kissin & Thompson, along with the breaking of the rotational coupling between core and envelope due to heavy mass loss.

title: Structural characterisation of MDM2 RING domain: E2-ubiquitin binding and activation by phosphorylation
Creators: name: Magnussen, Helge Magnus
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2020

description: The RING E3 ligase MDM2 is a primary negative regulator of the tumour suppressor protein p53. It blocks transcriptional activity and ubiquitinates p53, resulting in proteasomal degradation. MDM2’s ligase activity depends on the dimerisation of its C-terminal RING domain with either itself or its homologue MDMX. The crystal structure of the MDM2-MDMX heterodimer RING domain in complex with E2-ubiquitin has recently been crystallised. In this complex, only the MDM2 RING domain binds an E2-ubiquitin complex whereas the MDMX RING domain does not. However, MDMX’s C-terminal tail supports ubiquitin binding. This complex assembly results in one MDM2-MDMX RING heterodimer bound to one E2-ubiquitin complex. Due to extensive aggregation of the MDM2 homodimer, no structural information of the homodimeric MDM2-E2-ubiquitin complex has been obtained to date. During the course of my studies, I developed a purification protocol to generate non-aggregated homodimeric MDM2 RING domain. Sufficient amounts of homogeneous protein could be isolated for crystallisation purposes and crystal structures of the MDM2 homodimer alone and in complex with E2-ubiquitin were obtained. The crystal structures show that the homodimer can simultaneously bind two molecules of E2ubiquitin. The E2-ubiquitin binding surface resembles the heterodimer but shows significant differences in the arrangement of helices adjacent to the RING domain. Upon DNA damage, p53 needs to be stabilised in order to trigger cell cycle arrest or apoptosis. This requires p53 to be uncoupled from MDM2-mediated downregulation and is achieved by a number of phosphorylation events on both proteins, which reduce the binding affinity between p53 and MDM2. However, mouse models suggest that additional mechanisms exist as p53 is stabilised even when the corresponding phosphorylation sites are mutated. In addition, p53 is reportedly stabilised by phosphorylation of MDM2 near the RING domain, a region that is sequentially far away from the p53-binding domain. So far, the molecular basis of this mechanism has been elusive. Here, I show that phosphorylation near the RING domain enhances MDM2’s catalytic activity. With my MDM2 purification protocol, homodimeric phospho-MDM2 was generated and the crystal structure in complex with E2-ubiquitin was obtained. The molecular basis and homodimer-specificity of this novel phosphoregulation will be discussed. The results presented here help to understand the molecular function of MDM2, particularly under DNA damage conditions, and might be beneficial in diagnostics. The purification protocol of homogeneous MDM2 RING domain will be helpful for further structure-based studies such as the design of an MDM2 RING domain inhibitor.

description: The $Planck$ satellite has recently completed an all-sky galaxy cluster survey exploiting the thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effect to locate some of the most massive systems observable. With a median redshift of $\left=0.22$, the clusters found by $Planck$ at $z>0.3$ are proving to be exceptionally massive and/or disturbed systems. One notable $Planck$ discovery at $z=0.645$, PLCK G147.3-16.6, has a dual core and hosts a radio halo, indicating it is likely in the process of merging. We present a 16."5 resolution SZ observation of this high-$z$ merger using the Goddard-IRAM Superconducting 2 Millimeter Observer (GISMO), and compare it to X-ray follow-up observations with XMM-$Newton$. We find the SZ pressure substructure is offset from the core components seen in X-ray. We interpret this offset as possible line of sight temperature or density substructure due to the on-going merger.

description: We analyze the steady radial accretion of matter into a nonrotating black hole. Neglecting the self-gravity of the accreting matter, we consider a rather general class of static, spherically symmetric and asymptotically flat background spacetimes with a regular horizon. In addition to the Schwarzschild metric, this class contains certain deformation of it which could arise in alternative gravity theories or from solutions of the classical Einstein equations in the presence of external matter fields. Modeling the ambient matter surrounding the black hole by a relativistic perfect fluid, we reformulate the accretion problem as a dynamical system, and under rather general assumptions on the fluid equation of state, we determine the local and global qualitative behavior of its phase flow. Based on our analysis and generalizing previous work by Michel, we prove that for any given positive particle density number at infinity, there exists a unique radial, steady-state accretion flow which is regular at the horizon. We determine the physical parameters of the flow, including its accretion and compression rates, and discuss their dependency on the background metric.

description: В статье рассматривается зарубежный опыт уголовно-правового противодействия кибертерроризму, представляющему собой нетипичную разновидность традиционного терроризма. Отмечается, что, хотя в системе современного международно-правового противодействия терроризму всё ещё нет единого универсального определения данному явлению, однако кибертерроризм как деструктивное явление социальной действительности начинает получать правовую оценку в национальном уголовном законодательстве разных стран, что предполагает установление уголовной ответственности за его различные проявления. Анализируются два подхода криминализации общественно опасных деяний, квалифицируемых как кибертерроризм. В рамках первого подхода противоправные действия, совершаемые посредством использования информационно-коммуникационных технологий в сети Интернет, могут охватываться расширенной дефиницией террористического акта за счёт включения в объективную сторону этого преступления обобщенной формы возможных действий, создающих опасность гибели людей, причинения значительного имущественного ущерба или наступления иных тяжких последствий. На примере российского опыта противодействия преступлениям в сфере компьютерной информации в части криминализации неправомерного воздействия на критическую информационную инфраструктуру (КИИ) обосновывается вывод, что компьютерные атаки против объектов КИИ в целях дестабилизации деятельности органов власти или международных организаций либо воздействия на принятие ими решений также можно квалифицировать как террористический акт. В рамках второго подхода кибертерроризм на законодательном уровне закреплен в качестве самостоятельного преступления.

description: Embryogenesis, the stage when diverse cell types emerge and an organism's body plan takes form, exemplifies the complexity of biology. In this study, we aimed to investigate how two stimuli, mechanical stress and hypoxia, influence Drosophila embryos to better understand this intricate developmental process. Recognizing that the tools available shape the questions researchers can explore, we begin by describing advances in microfluidics technologies which enable novel experimental approaches to study model organisms. Next, we examine recent evidence related to calcium signaling and the role of mechanosensitive ion channels in morphogenesis to motivate further investigation in this field. Our research uncovers and characterizes dynamic patterns of calcium spiking prevalent during early embryo morphogenesis. Moreover, we observe that loss of the mechanosensitive ion channel Piezo in the early embryo induces significant proteomic changes. Separately, in experiments designed to control for the environment within our microfluidics device, we discovered that crowding of embryos induces responses similar to hypoxia. Proteomic characterization of this response to both hypoxia and crowding identified several canonical hypoxia-responsive proteins in addition to key cytoskeletal regulators. Collectively, these findings emphasize the sensitivity of embryonic cells to diverse stimuli, enriching our understanding of developmental biology. Future research aims to understand how calcium dynamics and the responses to mechanical and hypoxic stimulation contribute to embryogenesis.

description: We study the fine regularity properties of optimal potentials for the dual formulation of the Hellinger--Kantorovich problem (HK), providing sufficient conditions for the solvability of the primal Monge formulation. We also establish new regularity properties for the solution of the Hamilton--Jacobi equation arising in the dual dynamic formulation of HK, which are sufficiently strong to construct a characteristic transport-dilation flow driving the geodesic interpolation between two arbitrary positive measures. These results are applied to study relevant geometric properties of HK geodesics and to derive the convex behaviour of their Lebesgue density along the transport flow. Finally, exact conditions for functionals defined on the space of measures are derived that guarantee the geodesic lambda-convexity with respect to the Hellinger--Kantorovich distance.
«ИНДЕЙСКИЙ ВОПРОС» США В ФОКУСЕ ТЕОРИИ МЕЖДУНАРОДНОГО ПРАВА И АНГЛИЙСКОГО ЗЕМЕЛЬНОГО ПРАВА

description: «Индейский вопрос» США слишком сложное явление. Авторы сузили его до вопроса о том, каким образом индейцы утратили свои земли не только фактически, но и юридически. Однако даже в узком юридическом контексте «индейский вопрос» представляет собой запутанный клубок аргументов из международного, конституционного, договорного, деликтного и, не в последнюю очередь, английского земельного права. В начале ХIХ в. американские юристы и политики нашли «решение индейского вопроса» на стыке идеологии международного права и традиционной практики английского земельного права (real estate law). Авторы отмечают, что юристы и политики США ХIХ в. существенно деформировали предложенную ещё Гроцием и творчески переработанную Пуфендорфом международно-правовую теорию оккупации (завладения). Вместо нее американский политический истеблишмент распространял т.н. теорию проживания, которая преподносилась как законная интерпретация классической теории оккупации в терминах Гроция и Пуфендорфа. Официальный статус теория проживания или пользования получила в решении Верховного суда США по делу «Джонсон против М’Интоша» 1823 г. Вопреки идеологическим предрассудкам, североамериканские индейцы не были кочевниками в строгом смысле этого слова, как, например, средневековые монголы. Индейцы традиционно практиковали т.н. гендерное земледелие, т.е. сельским хозяйством занимались только женщины. При этом индейские семьи пользовались т.н. функциональными правами на землю, например, право собирать целебные травы на определенном поле, право охотиться там, куда ушло стадо бизонов, при условии, что бизоны не перешли границу, отделяющую земли одного племени от земель другого. Во многом похожим было и обычное земельное право средневековой Англии. Однако в ХIХ в. английское земельное право из объективного права функциональных прав на землю окончательно превратилось в «право огороженных участков» (enclosure). Авторы делают вывод, что обычное земельное право североамериканских индейцев (за исключением гендерного аспекта), как и средневековое английское право функциональных прав на землю, является более адекватным ответом на вызовы глобального экологического кризиса, чем господствующее во всем мире абсолютное «право огороженных участков».

description: We study spherical and nonspherical linear acoustic perturbations of the Michel flow, which describes the steady radial accretion of a perfect fluid into a nonrotating black hole. The dynamics of such perturbations are governed by a scalar wave equation on an effective curved background geometry determined by the acoustic metric, which is constructed from the spacetime metric and the particle density and four-velocity of the fluid. For the problem under consideration in this article the acoustic metric has the same qualitative features as an asymptotically flat, static and spherically symmetric black hole, and thus it represents a natural astrophysical analogue black hole. As for the case of a scalar field propagating on a Schwarzschild background, we show that acoustic perturbations of the Michel flow exhibit quasi-normal oscillations. Based on a new numerical method for determining the solutions of the radial mode equation, we compute the associated frequencies and analyze their dependency on the radii of the event and sonic horizons and the angular momentum number. Our results for the fundamental frequencies are compared to those obtained from an independent numerical Cauchy evolution, finding good agreement between the two approaches. When the radius of the sonic horizon is large compared to the event horizon radius, we find that the quasi-normal frequencies scale approximately like the surface gravity associated with the sonic horizon.

Domain Adapted Visual Representation Learning for Machine Perception
Creators: name: Li, Yu-Jhe
Publisher: name: Carnegie Mellon University
Year: 2023
Subjects: Computer Engineering

description: Our objective is to enhance the generalization capabilities of existing machine perception models and achieve diverse domain alignments through adept representation learning. Many established approaches for perception tasks, encompassing object classification, detection, tracking, and rendering, often confront diverse domain changes that curtail their adaptability to novel domains. We categorize these changes into three types: 1) alterations in pose and viewpoint, 2) variations in visual capture conditions, and 3) diversity in modalities. Initially, models trained on specific viewpoints may falter when faced with viewpoints outside their training range. Second, changes in visual data capture conditions, encompassing changes in illumination or image resolution, can erode the generalization of trained models. Third, employing pre-trained models across distinct modalities, such as RGB, Lidar point clouds, Radar maps, or text embeddings, can lead to performance degradation. In this thesis, we propose to perform domain alignment to handle the aforementioned domain changes. The first segment of this thesis outlines our approach to performing domain alignment without the need for arduously training extensive models across multiple domains. We advocate for efficient handling of each type of change through visual representation learning techniques, utilizing models with minimal network parameters and judicious training data. This process, known as domain adaptation, unfolds in three stages. Initially, for pose and viewpoint variation, we propose acquiring viewpoint-invariant or pose-invariant representations, relevant to tasks like Re-ID, object tracking, and 3D face rendering. Subsequently, to mitigate the impact of changes in visual capture conditions, we harness semi-supervised and adversarial learning methods for tasks such as object detection and Re-ID. Lastly, to address cross-modal domain changes, we leverage self-training strategies to cultivate modality-agnostic representations for object detection. The second part of this thesis extends our domain-aligning framework to manage scenarios involving more than two forms of domain changes. To concurrently handle viewpoint variation and diverse modalities, we devise models capable of learning viewinvariant representations for multiple modalities within the realm of 3D human pose estimation and rendering. Moreover, to combat changes arising from changes in resolution and diverse modalities in physical devices (e.g., ADC signals and Radar’s RGB images), we advocate for the acquisition of super-resolution representations using models featuring complex values. Broadly, this thesis delves into the intricacies of perception tasks affected by domain changes and provides pragmatic solutions to address these challenges in real-world contexts.

description: Supervised deep learning depends on massive accurately annotated examples, which is usually impractical in many real-world scenarios. A typical alternative is learning from multiple noisy annotators. Numerous earlier works assume that all labels are noisy, while it is usually the case that a few trusted samples with clean labels are available. This raises the following important question: how can we effectively use a small amount of trusted data to facilitate robust classifier learning from multiple annotators? This paper proposes a data-efficient approach, called \emph{Trustable Co-label Learning} (TCL), to learn deep classifiers from multiple noisy annotators when a small set of trusted data is available. This approach follows the coupled-view learning manner, which jointly learns the data classifier and the label aggregator. It effectively uses trusted data as a guide to generate trustable soft labels (termed co-labels). A co-label learning can then be performed by alternately reannotating the pseudo labels and refining the classifiers. In addition, we further improve TCL for a special complete data case, where each instance is labeled by all annotators and the label aggregator is represented by multilayer neural networks to enhance model capacity. Extensive experiments on synthetic and real datasets clearly demonstrate the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed approach. Source code is available at https://github.com/ShikunLi/TCL

About

The California Cropland Monitoring and Modeling Framework (CCMMF) will be a biogeochemical model and data integration pipeline to generate current year inventories and future projections of soil carbon (SOC) stocks and greenhouse gas fluxes (GHG) from California’s croplands. CCMMF will leverage Bayesian techniques to combine model predictions and heterogeneous datasets into unified wall-to-wall inventories and climate and scenario-based projections. Data layers will be generated as ensemble projections to facilitate propagation of uncertainty through downstream applications.

CCMMF will produce new gridded time series of key agronomic practices including planting, harvest, irrigation, and tillage at a consistent temporal resolution. These agronomic management time series will be generated by combining remotely sensed data with agronomic statistics and biogeochemical modeling. The biogeochemistry model will be built on the SImplified PhotosyNthesis and EvapoTranspiration model (SIPNET), expanded to represent agronomic management, nitrogen cycling, and fluxes of nitrous oxide and methane. We will utilize existing and newly-derived remote sensing of annual land management and agricultural practices to drive the model will produce consistent model estimates that do not depend on obtaining records from individual farmers. The statistical workflow engine will extend the Predictive Ecosystem Analyzer (PEcAn) to support annual updates and both climate-based and management scenario-based projections.

The combination of a simplified biogeochemistry model that simulates agronomic practices from remote-sensed inputs and an open, consistent, variance-explicit data framework will allow CCMMF to achieve robust estimates of SOC and GHG inventories across lands with highly varied but coarsely measured management. All data and software that is part of CCMMF will be open, free, and deployable on state computing resources. This requirement sets a bar for transparency, and a foundation for future innovation and transferability, that is not possible with the current suite of proprietary systems.

description: As human civilization has entered its 21st century, the enhancement of computational power is high in demand and has presented great challenges for researchers in different fields of study. Thanks to its capability of processing-in-memory (PiM), transition metal oxide based Resistive Random Access Memory (ReRAM) devices become one of the most promising candidates for accelerating artificial intelligence algorithms and lowering power consumption. The performance of ReRAM devices, such as cyclability and variability, still falls short of the necessary requirements. Most of these issues are strongly related to the ion migration in the electroforming and switching process. The work described here is to advance a fundamental understanding of ion motion during electroforming and switching in TaOx ReRAM devices. In this thesis, a metalinsulator-metal (MIM) inverted via structure using TaOx material was fabricated, tested, and characterized to gain insight into ion motion in this system. The thesis comprehensively examines the relationship between the electrical conductivity of TaOx and temperature as well as composition by the transmission line method (TLM). Subsequently, the thesis offers direct evidence of substantial lateral redistribution of cations through in-operando scanning thermal microscopy (SThM) and atomic force microscopy (AFM). A localized compressive stress buildup in the filament area during electroformation was evidenced and attributed to the aggregation of Ta ions. In the memory switching process, the switching is achieved by vertical ion drifting by the applied electric field. The hottest spot is always found at the resistive gap in the filament area. Lastly, a finite element model (FEM) considering Fick’s diffusion, thermodiffusion, and stress-induced diffusion was developed. The established model effectively reproduced most electrical and compositional device characteristics during the electroformation process. The thesis concludes that the ion motion during the electroformation process in TaOx-based ReRAM is dominated by the thermodiffusion of cations towards the center, with stress playing a crucial role as a limiting factor in device evolution.

description: The Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope has greatly expanded the number and energy window of observations of gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). However, the coarse localizations of tens to a hundred square degrees provided by the Fermi GRB Monitor instrument have posed a formidable obstacle to locating the bursts' host galaxies, measuring their redshifts, and tracking their panchromatic afterglows. We have built a target-of-opportunity mode for the intermediate Palomar Transient Factory in order to perform targeted searches for Fermi afterglows. Here, we present the results of one year of this program: 8 afterglow discoveries out of 35 searches. Two of the bursts with detected afterglows (GRBs 130702A and 140606B) were at low redshift (z=0.145 and 0.384 respectively) and had spectroscopically confirmed broad-line Type Ic supernovae. We present our broadband follow-up including spectroscopy as well as X-ray, UV, optical, millimeter, and radio observations. We study possible selection effects in the context of the total Fermi and Swift GRB samples. We identify one new outlier on the Amati relation. We find that two bursts are consistent with a mildly relativistic shock breaking out from the progenitor star, rather than the ultra-relativistic internal shock mechanism that powers standard cosmological bursts. Finally, in the context of the Zwicky Transient Facility, we discuss how we will continue to expand this effort to find optical counterparts of binary neutron star mergers that may soon be detected by Advanced LIGO and Virgo.

description: We systematically analyze the 6-year {\it Fermi}/LAT data of the lobe-dominated quasars (LDQs) in the complete LDQ sample from 3CRR survey and report the discovery of high-energy $γ$-ray emission from 3C 275.1. The $γ$-ray emission of 3C 207 is confirmed and significant variability of the lightcurve is identified. We do not find statistically significant $γ$-ray emission from other LDQs. 3C 275.1 is the known $γ$-ray quasar with the lowest core dominance parameter (i.e., $R=0.11$). We also show that both the northern radio hotspot and parsec jet models can reasonably reproduce the $γ$-ray data. The parsec jet model, however, is favored by the potential $γ$-ray variability at the timescale of months. We suggest that some dimmer $γ$-ray LDQs will be detected in the future and LDQs could contribute non-negligibly to the extragalactic $γ$-ray background.

Comparative Food Insecurities

description: Studies have found that farmworkers in U.S. agriculture report high rates of food insecurity. Yet scholars also point to hunger as the reason behind why farmworkers left their homes to come to the U.S. Thus, a binational comparison of food insecurity is needed. This study examines access to food prior to and after migration to California. Interviews with 40 farmworker households reveal that while respondents experienced more hunger in their home communities than they do in the U.S., the quality of food has decreased with migration. Respondents brought up the high quality of fresh, flavourful, organic food they grew themselves through natural methods. When the harvest ran out, without money to buy food, they experienced severe hunger. Some contrasted that to the abundance of food post-migration, and others discussed seasonal hunger during months when there is less work, yet all pointed to the low quality of food they have access to at U.S. grocery stores. With migration, respondents lost access to pesticide-free food. Rates of farmworker food insecurity miss the fact that even those who are considered food secure are not eating the quality of food they desire. A comparative perspective reveals the transformation of insecurity from insufficient amounts of fresh and natural food to increased consumption of food laden with chemicals. In neither context do the workers who harvest food for others have enough access to what they wish to be eating.

description: Статья посвящена развитию военного авиастроения в СССР в межвоенный период с точки зрения выявления связей между стратегическими решениями и производственными результатами на разных хронологических этапах развития отрасли. Авторы определяют ключевые факторы феномена роста советского авиастроения в 30-е годы. Делается вывод, что советское военное авиастроение могло добиться удовлетворительных результатов к концу 30-х годов при темпах роста модернизации и расширения отрасли, достигнутых в конце нэпа. Однако в этом случае Советский Союз не получил бы развитой бомбардировочной авиации, требовавшей крупных капиталовложений и трудозатрат.

description: This supporting thesis attempts to argue for the use of comics and comic arts as an effective visual language with which to disseminate the question of female ageism (prejudice or discrimination on the basis of one’s age). Through familial and self-reflexive references, my hope is to bring attention to the ubiquitous yet undervalued loss of voice of the middle-aged woman by means of an art form that has historically been dismissed within the fine art world. Through minimal black and white line-work, 2D comic-art iterations are placed in the gallery as a representation of the struggle middle-aged women have endured for a place in contemporary Western society. While intersectional feminism attempts to include all races, economic and social demographics within feminist discourse, ageism has been a silently pervasive phenomenon.

description: The magnetic state of a quantum dot attached to superconducting leads is experimentally shown to be controlled by the superconducting phase difference across the dot. This is done by probing the relation between the Josephson current and the superconducting phase difference of a carbon nanotube junction whose Kondo energy and superconducting gap are of comparable size. It exhibits distinctively anharmonic behavior, revealing a phase mediated singlet to doublet transition. We obtain an excellent quantitative agreement with numerically exact quantum Monte Carlo calculations. This provides strong support that we indeed observed the finite temperature signatures of the phase controlled zero temperature level-crossing transition originating from strong local electronic correlations.
