description: Presolar stardust grains found in primitive meteorites are believed to retain the isotopic composition of stellar outflows at the time of grain condensation. Therefore, laboratory measurements of their isotopic ratios represent sensitive probes for investigating open questions related to stellar evolution, stellar explosions, nucleosynthesis, mixing mechanisms, dust formation, and galactic chemical evolution. For a few selected presolar grains, classical novae have been discussed as a potential source. For SiC, silicate, and graphite presolar grains, the association is based on the observation of small $N(^{12}$C)/$N(^{13}$C) and $N(^{14}$N)/$N(^{15}$N) number abundance ratios compared to solar values, and abundance excesses in $^{30}$Si relative to $^{29}$Si, as previously predicted by models of classical novae. We report on a direct measurement of the $^{29}$Si(p,$γ$)$^{30}$P reaction, which strongly impacts simulated $δ^{29}$Si values from classical novae. Our new experimental $^{29}$Si(p,$γ$)$^{30}$P thermonuclear reaction rate differs from previous results by up to 50\% in the classical nova temperature range ($T$ $=$ $100$ $-$ $400$~MK), while the rate uncertainty is reduced by up to a factor of $3$. Using our new reaction rate in Monte Carlo reaction network and hydrodynamic simulations of classical novae, we estimate $δ^{29}$Si values with much reduced uncertainties. Our results establish $δ^{29}$Si values measured in presolar grains as a sensitive probe for assessing their classical nova paternity. We also demonstrate that $δ^{30}$Si values from nova simulations are presently not a useful diagnostic tool unless the large uncertainty of the $^{30}$P(p,$γ$)$^{31}$S reaction rate can be significantly reduced.

description: Just-in-time compilation provides significant performance improvements for programs written in dynamic languages. These benefits come from the ability of the compiler to speculate about likely cases and generate optimized code for these. Unavoidably, speculations sometimes fail and the optimizations must be reverted. In some pathological cases, this can leave the program stuck with suboptimal code. In this paper we propose deoptless, a technique that replaces deoptimization points with dispatched specialized continuations. The goal of deoptless is to take a step towards providing users with a more transparent performance model in which mysterious slowdowns are less frequent and grave.

description: Regular exercise improves physiological processes and yields positive health outcomes. However, it is relatively less known that particulate matter (PM) exposure during outdoor exercises may increase several respiratory health problems depending on PM levels. In this study, the respiratory deposition doses (RDDs) in head airway (HD), tracheobronchial (TB), and alveolar (AL) regions of various PM size fractions (<10, <2.5, and <1 μm; PM10, PM2.5, and PM1) were estimated in healthy male and female exercisers in urban outdoors and within house premises. The highest RDDs were found for PM during morning hours in winter compared with remaining periods. RDDs in AL region for males and females, respectively, were 34.7 × 10−2 and 28.8 × 10−2 µg min−1 for PM10, 65.7 × 10−2 and 56.9 × 10−2 µg min−1 for PM2.5, and 76.5 × 10−2 and 66.3 × 10−2 µg min−1 for PM1. The RDD values in AL region were significantly higher in PM1 (27%) compared with PM2.5 (13%) and PM10 (2%) during exercise in all periods. This result showed that the morning peak hours in winter are more harmful to urban outdoor exercisers compared with other periods. This study also showed that the AL region would have been the main affected zone through fine particle (PM1) to all the exercisers. Implications: Size-segregated particle concentrations in urban outdoors and within house premises were measured. The highest respiratory deposition doses (RDDs) were found for PM during morning hours in winter compared with remaining periods. During light exercise, the RDD values in alveolar (AL) region for PM10, PM2.5, and PM1 for male exercisers were significantly higher, 20.4%, 15.5%, and 15.4%, respectively, compared with female exercisers during morning peak hours in winter.

description: Three new copper(II) complexes, [(CuL)2Cl{N(CN)2}3]n, where L = 1-amidino-O-methylurea (1), 1-amidino-O-ethylurea (2), or 1-amidino-O-propylurea (3), have been synthesized and characterized. The single crystal X-ray structure of 2 and X-ray powder diffraction analysis on 1 and 3 show that they crystallize in the monoclinic system. The neutral dinuclear entity of 2 contains a crystallographic 2-fold axis passing through the amido nitrogen of a bridging dicyanamido ligand. The dinuclear units are bridged by weak Cu … Cl interactions through the axial position of both copper ions to form a 1D polymer. The interaction of 1–3 with calf-thymus DNA (CT-DNA) has been explored by using absorption, emission, thermal denaturation, cyclic voltammetric studies, and viscosity experiments. The complexes bind to CT-DNA by non-intercalative mode and the order of binding ability is 1 > 2 > 3.

description: The layered perovskite YBaCuFeO5 is a rare example of cycloidal spiral magnet whose ordering temperature Tspiral can be tuned far beyond room temperature by adjusting the degree of Cu2+/Fe3+ chemical disorder in the structure. This unusual property qualifies this material as one of the most promising spin-driven multiferroic candidates. However, very little is known about the response of the spiral to magnetic fields, crucial for magnetoelectric cross-control applications. Using bulk magnetization and neutron powder diffraction measurements under magnetic fields up to 9 T we report here the first temperature-magnetic field phase diagram of this material. Besides revealing a strong stability of the spiral state, our data uncover the presence of weak ferromagnetism coexisting with the spiral modulation. Since ferromagnets can be easily manipulated with magnetic fields, this observation opens new perspectives for the control of the spiral orientation, directly linked to the polarization direction, as well as for a possible future use of this material in technological applications.

description: PdCoO$_2$, being highly conductive and anisotropic, is a promising material for fundamental and technological applications. Recently, reduced PdCoO$_2$ thin films were shown to exhibit ferromagnetism after hydrogen annealing. Here, we demonstrate that when PdCoO$_2$ film is used as a cathode for dissociation of water, hydrogen generated around the film reduces the material and leads to the emergence of anomalous Hall effect (AHE). Moreover, we demonstrate that the sign of the AHE signal can also be changed with the electrolytic process. Electrolytically-modified PdCoO$_2$ films may open a door to applications in spintronics.

description: A calculation of two-neutrino double-$β$ ($2νββ$) decay matrix elements within the interacting boson model (IBM) that is based on the nuclear density functional theory is presented. The constrained self-consistent mean-field (SCMF) calculation using a universal energy density functional (EDF) and a pairing interaction provides potential energy surfaces with triaxial quadrupole degrees of freedom for even-even nuclei corresponding to the initial and final states of the $2νββ$ decays of interest. The SCMF energy surface is then mapped onto the bosonic one, and this procedure determines the IBM Hamiltonian for the even-even nuclei. The same SCMF calculation provides the essential ingredients of the interacting boson fermion-fermion model (IBFFM) for the intermediate odd-odd nuclei and the Gamow-Teller and Fermi transition operators. The EDF-based IBM and IBFFM provide a simultaneous description of excitation spectra and electromagnetic transition rates for each nucleus, and single-$β$ and $ββ$ decay properties. The calculated $2νββ$-decay nuclear matrix elements are compared with experiment and with those from earlier theoretical calculations.

description: In the present study, solid-state fermentation for the production of raw starch degrading enzyme was investigated by thermotolerant Rhizopus microsporus TISTR 3531 using a combination of agro-industrial wastes as substrates. The obtained crude enzyme was applied for hydrolysis of raw cassava starch and chips at low temperature and subjected to nonsterile ethanol production using raw cassava chips. The agro-industrial waste ratio was optimized using a simplex axial mixture design. The results showed that the substrate mixture consisting of rice bran:corncob:cassava bagasse at 8 g:10 g:2 g yielded the highest enzyme production of 201.6 U/g dry solid. The optimized condition for solid-state fermentation was found as 65% initial moisture content, 35°C, initial pH of 6.0, and 5 × 106 spores/mL inoculum, which gave the highest enzyme activity of 389.5 U/g dry solid. The enzyme showed high efficiency on saccharification of raw cassava starch and chips with synergistic activities of commercial α-amylase at 50°C, which promotes low-temperature bioethanol production. A high ethanol concentration of 102.2 g/L with 78% fermentation efficiency was achieved from modified simultaneous saccharification and fermentation using cofermentation of the enzymatic hydrolysate of 300 g raw cassava chips/L with cane molasses.

description: In vivo and in vitro depolymerizations of intracellular medium-chain-length poly-3-hydroxyalkanoates (mcl-PHA) in Pseudomonas putida Bet001 grown on lauric acid was studied. Both processes were studied under optimum conditions for mcl-PHA depolymerization viz. 0.2 M Tris-HCl buffer, pH 9, ionic strength (I) = 0.2 M at 30°C. For in vitro depolymerization studies, cell-free system was obtained from lysing bacterial cells suspension by ultrasonication at optimum conditions (frequency 37 kHz, 30% of power output, <25°C for 120 min). The comparison between in vivo and in vitro depolymerizations of intracellular mcl-PHA was made. In vitro depolymerization showed lower depolymerization rate but higher yield compared to in vivo depolymerization. The monomer liberation rate reflected the mol% distribution of the initial polymer subunit composition, and the resulting direct individual products of depolymerization were identical for both in vivo and in vitro processes. It points to exo-type reaction for both processes, and potential biological route to chiral molecules.

description: Environmentally induced perturbation of health parameters lead to morphological changes associated to the inflammatory response. Hematoxyline and eosin (H&E)-stained gill filaments sections were examined for such changes and inflammation intensity was scored according to a quantitative model in order to evaluate the health status of in vivo exposed (for 3, 6, and 12 h) mussels to silver nanoparticles (Ag-NPs <50 nm and Ag-NPs <100 nm) prior and after the inhibition of two potential uptake pathways (clathrin- and caveolae-mediated endocytosis) with the aid of pharmaceutical inhibitors (amantadine and nystatin). The impacts of the nanoparticles (NPs) size, as well as their uptake routes within different time of exposure on the inflammatory response were assessed. The results showed that Ag-NPs clearly induced morphological changes associated to the inflammatory response in gill tissues (Mann–Whitney p values were p

description: We address a problem that arises for an original equipment manufacturer (OEM) who produces a product both in new and remanufactured forms. A remanufactured product is produced using the parts harvested from recovered products (cores) upon their disassembly, and it may contain some new parts while the excess good parts from cores are salvaged for profit. Other options are available to the OEM for handling cores that do not require disassembly. It follows that the per-unit remanufacturing cost is not constant and it may change depending on the number of recovered cores, good-part reclamation yields, and sales of remanufactured products. We present analytical results for determining an optimal solution with regard to: (i) quantity of cores to collect, (ii) end-of-life (EOL) options for the cores and (iii) product pricing of new and remanufactured products. Our analysis reveals existence of a ‘limiting part’ that dictates the number of cores to collect and a ‘key part’ that determines the number of remanufactured products to make as well as the fact that the availability of cores does not impact the EOL policy type for a product. Our analysis also enables mapping of product characteristics onto corresponding EOL policy types.

description: Establishing dense correspondences across semantically similar images remains a challenging task due to the significant intra-class variations and background clutters. Traditionally, a supervised learning was used for training the models, which required tremendous manually-labeled data, while some methods suggested a self-supervised or weakly-supervised learning to mitigate the reliance on the labeled data, but with limited performance. In this paper, we present a simple, but effective solution for semantic correspondence that learns the networks in a semi-supervised manner by supplementing few ground-truth correspondences via utilization of a large amount of confident correspondences as pseudo-labels, called SemiMatch. Specifically, our framework generates the pseudo-labels using the model's prediction itself between source and weakly-augmented target, and uses pseudo-labels to learn the model again between source and strongly-augmented target, which improves the robustness of the model. We also present a novel confidence measure for pseudo-labels and data augmentation tailored for semantic correspondence. In experiments, SemiMatch achieves state-of-the-art performance on various benchmarks, especially on PF-Willow by a large margin.

The main innovation behind APIphany is the use of precise semantic types, both to specify user intent and to direct the search. APIphany contributes three novel mechanisms to overcome challenges in adapting component-based synthesis to the REST domain: (1) a type inference algorithm for augmenting REST specifications with semantic types; (2) an efficient synthesis technique for "wrangling" semi-structured data, which is commonly required in working with RESTful APIs; and (3) a new form of simulated execution to avoid executing APIs calls during synthesis. We evaluate APIphany on three real-world APIs and 32 tasks extracted from GitHub repositories and StackOverflow. In our experiments, APIphany found correct solutions to 29 tasks, with 23 of them reported among top ten synthesis results.

description: Cognitive Dissonance Theory (Festinger, 1957) is currently enjoying a second act as the conceptual foundation for an integrative theory of psychological threat (e.g., Hart et al., 2014; Jonas et al., 2014). As part of this broader approach, researchers are looking to explore the range of threat compensation (i.e., dissonance reduction) strategies that people employ in more authentic social situations. Motivated by previous work on goal pursuit (e.g., Carver & Scheier, 1998; see Jonas, et al., 2014) deception (e.g., DePaulo, 2004; DePaulo et al., 2003) and self-presentation (e.g., Schlenker, 2012), we will seek to determine if a form of strategic self-presentation called "pro-social lying" (i.e., deceptive behavior intended to bolster or maintain social relationships) can act as a threat compensation strategy.

We will put people under threat by having them read a high-quality belief-threatening essay; we will then measure their negative affect, interactions with another person, and attitudes regarding the essay’s author. By manipulating combinations of these factors we hope to determine the viability of strategic self-presentation as a threat-compensation strategy, and by way of this specific question, also reveal the broader psychological processes at work in these situations.

This study will be run online, via Qualtrics and MTurk. We will recruit a sample of 300 participants (prior to exclusions).

description: Global trends of fertility decline, population aging, and rural outmigration are creating pressures to consolidate school systems, with the rationale that economies of scale will enable higher quality education to be delivered in an efficient manner, despite longer travel distances for students. Yet, few studies have considered the implications of system consolidation for educational access and inequality, outside of the context of developed countries. We estimate the impact of educational infrastructure consolidation on educational attainment using the case of China's rural primary school closure policies in the early 2000s. We use data from a large household survey covering 728 villages in 7 provinces, and exploit variation in villages' year of school closure and children's ages at closure to identify the causal impact of school closure. For girls exposed to closure during their primary school ages, we find an average decrease of 0.60 years of schooling by 2011, when children's mean age was 17 years old. Negative effects strengthen with time since closure. For boys, there is no corresponding significant effect. Different effects by gender may be related to greater sensitivity of girls' enrollment to distance and greater responsiveness of boys' enrollment to quality.

description: We present the first comprehensive glacial-landform map of the south Swedish uplands (SSU), deglaciated 15–13 ka ago, using one consistent method and dataset; a Light Detection and Ranging-derived digital elevation model. In particular, this map focuses on the spatial distribution of hummock tracts. The distribution of hummock tracts reinforces previous thinking of a broad lobate east–west zone of hummocks across the southern part of the SSU. But this map also reveals a pattern of hummock tracts confined in what we call hummock corridors that have a radial pattern sub-parallel to the overall ice-flow direction. Hummocks occur in a wide variety of morphologies, but we also show the distribution of two distinct forms: V-shaped hummocks and ‘ribbed moraine’. Cross-cutting relationships between hummocks and glacial lineations indicate a more complex chronology than previously suggested. In places, lineations are overlain by hummocks and in other places hummocks are overlain by lineations. Additionally, directional variation of glacial lineations together with a complex end-moraine pattern suggests a dynamic ice sheet with multiple small lobes. Finally, mapped end moraines help to better correlate the deglacial timescales of western and eastern Sweden.

description: Aims: To determine the comparative efficacy and safety of liraglutide and dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors as antidiabetics for Japanese patients with uncontrolled type 2 diabetes (T2DM). Methods and materials: We searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) evaluating outcomes among Japanese adults with uncontrolled T2DM and including liraglutide or DPP-4 inhibitors up to August 2016. We extracted data on trial and patient characteristics, and the following outcomes: HbA1c, weight, patients meeting HbA1c <7%, patients experiencing hypoglycemic events, microalbuminuria, estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) and creatinine. We synthesized data using network meta-analyses (NMA) using a Bayesian framework. Continuous outcomes were modeled using normal likelihoods and an identity link, while dichotomous outcomes were modeled using a binomial likelihood and a logit link. Results: The systematic literature review yielded 39 publications pertaining to 38 trials. A total of 27 trials (5032 patients) reported change in HbA1c at 12 weeks and at 24 weeks 9 trials (2091 patients). All treatments showed statistically significant reductions in HbA1c relative to placebo at 12 and 24 weeks. Liraglutide 0.9 mg was statistically superior to all DPP-4 interventions (vildagliptin, sitagliptin, linagliptin, alogliptin, teneligliptin, trelagliptin and omarigliptin) at 12 weeks and 24 weeks among those reporting. Treatments were not statistically differentiable with respect to weight change and risk of hypoglycemia. Finally, no comparisons of eGFR and microalbuminuria were conducted, as this data was reported in too few trials to conduct analyses. Limitations: Some important outcomes were limited by poor reporting (eGFR and microalbuminuria) or low event rates (hypoglycemia). The follow-up time was relatively short. Clinically, the 24 week time point is more important as it demonstrates more sustained results. Conclusions: Our research suggests that liraglutide 0.9 mg offers a more efficacious treatment option for T2DM than the DPP-4 inhibitors among adult Japanese patients and that it is a viable option for this population.

description: L'enquêtrice demande à la jeune maman de décrire le déroulement de sa grossesse. Celle-ci s’est déroulée sous césarienne. Il n’y a pas eu de contact peau à peau car c’est une fois lavé et habillé que le nourrisson a été en contact avec sa mère et placé au sein. La jeune femme parle ensuite de l’aspect de son premier lait, le colostrum, qu’elle décrit comme ayant un aspect gélatineux, avec une odeur un peu plus forte que le lait. Elle explique ensuite les sensations ressenties liées à la tétée. Aux questions de l'enquêtrice sur la formation du lait dans le corps, l’informatrice pense que le lait arrive vers le huitième mois de grossesse et se forme dans les seins. Elle explique que malgré la douleur des crevasses elle a continué l’allaitement car l’enfant, en tétant, soigne les blessures, tout le monde le lui a dit. Pour alimenter son bébé, elle déclare n’utiliser que son propre lait et pense le faire toute la première année. Elle parle ensuite des autres femmes et de leurs problèmes liés à l’allaitement. L’enquêtrice revient sur le colostrum et la jeune mère déclare que le sien était un peu comme de l’eau, en filaments, et de couleur jaune. Elle pense également que le bébé "se vaccine" en tétant le premier lait, et que cela lui nettoie le ventre. L'enquêtrice demande ensuite des informations sur la façon dont le nourrisson évacue et reprend ses questions sur le colostrum, que la mère compare à un vaccin, un passage obligé avant le vrai lait et le voit comme un aliment qui purifie et qui doit faire du bien au bébé mais elle dit ne pas connaître de termes pour nommer ce premier lait. Pour ce qui est de l’alimentation la jeune mère déclare qu’elle consomme surtout des soupes épaisses (blé, quinoa) et boit des jus et du lait car selon, ses dires, cela augmenterait la production de lait. L’enquêtrice pose ensuite des questions sur la pratique ou non de relations sexuelles qui précèdent ou suivent l’accouchement. D’autres questions suivent sur les bénéfices du colostrum et le lait maternel mais la jeune femme n’a pas de réponse.

description: The first multi-color light curve analysis of the AH Mic binary system is presented. This system has very few past observations from the southern hemisphere. We extracted the minima times from the light curves based on the Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) approach and obtained a new ephemeris. To provide modern photometric light curve solutions, we used the Physics of Eclipsing Binaries (Phoebe) software package and the MCMC approach. Light curve solutions yielded a system temperature ratio of 0.950, and we assumed a cold star-spot for the hotter star based on the O'Connell effect. This analysis reveals that AH Mic is a W-subtype W UMa contact system with a fill-out factor of 21.3% and a mass ratio of 2.32. The absolute physical parameters of the components are estimated by using the Gaia Early Data Release 3 (EDR3) parallax method to be M_h(M_Sun)=0.702(26), M_c(M_Sun)=1.629(104), R_h(R_Sun)=0.852(21), R_c(R_Sun)=1.240(28), L_h(L_Sun)=0.618(3) and L_c(L_Sun)=1.067(7). The orbital angular momentum of the AH Mic binary system was found to be 51.866(35). The components' positions of this system are plotted in the Hertzsprung-Russell (H-R) diagram.
