The assembly and repair of cyanobacterial Photosystem II
Creators: name: Shao, Shengxi
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2017

description: Photosystem II (PSII) is the multi-subunit membrane-anchored light-driven water:plastoquinone oxidoreductase located in the thylakoid membranes of chloroplasts and cyanobacteria. This macrocomplex harvests solar energy to power oxygenic photosynthesis, a reaction that renews atmospheric oxygen, supplies fixed carbon for the food chain and maintains the global carbon level. The D1 subunit is one of the two reaction centre proteins of PSII and provides amino-acid ligands to the Mn4CaO5 cluster involved in water oxidation. CP43, which plays a light-harvesting role in PSII, also provides a ligand to the cluster. In the structurally related photosystem I (PSI) complex, the equivalent to CP43 and D1 are fused and synthesised as a single subunit. In this work, a CP43-D1 fusion strain was successfully constructed in the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 and shown to assemble a functional PSII complex capable of water oxidation. However, PSII activity in vivo was sensitive to high irradiances, and photoinhibition analyses showed impaired PSII repair in the fusion mutant and slower degradation of the CP43-D1 fusion protein. This work supports the hypothesis that CP43 and D1 are synthesised as separate subunits to allow prompt and efficient repair of PSII following damage by light. I have shown by phylogenetic analysis that PSII repair mediated by FtsH proteases might have also played an important role in the evolution of oxygenic photosynthesis. There are at least three orthologous groups of FtsH in the tree of life, with the FtsH involved in PSII repair diverging earlier than the radiation of FtsH from all other bacteria. Additionally, I carried out a structural conservation analysis on Psb29, an interacting partner of FtsH, to reveal potential interacting sites on this protein that are of interest for future studies for understanding the regulation of the PSII repair mechanism.

description: In this study, the combined effect of temperature (T) and pore water salinity on electrical surface conduction parameters was investigated. Two new electrical surface conduction parameters, namely, electrical conductivity of effective solid (σs) and size of diffuse double layer (DDL) water per unit volume of soil (χ), were considered in this study. The tested samples included two commercially available clays and four natural clay soils with diverse physico-chemical properties. The two surface conduction parameters were also used to assess the influence of temperature (T) and pore water salinity, as well as the electrical conductivity of free water (σFW), on the evolution of the free swelling index (FSI) of clays/clay soils through experimental methods. The findings suggested that elevated temperature and σFW increased σs but reduced χ, as well as the FSI of clays/clay soils. Furthermore, the rate of reduction for both χ and FSI augmented under the influence of increased free water salinity, particularly for clays/clay soils with high swelling capacity. The combined reductions of χ and FSI provided substantial evidence that clay DDL thickness decreases as T and σFW increase concurrently.

description: We present results on QCD with four dynamical flavors in the temperature range $150$ MeV $\lesssim T \lesssim 500$ MeV. We have performed lattice simulations with Wilson fermions at maximal twist and measured Polyakov loop, chiral condensate and disconnected susceptibility, on lattices with spacings as fine as 0.065 fm. For most observables spacing effects are below statistical errors, which enables us to identify lattice results with continuum estimates. Our estimate of the pseudocritical temperature compares favorably with continuum results from staggered and domain wall fermions, confirming that a dynamical charm does not contribute in the transition region. From the high temperature behaviour of the disconnected chiral susceptibility we infer the topological susceptibility, which encodes relevant properties of the QCD axion, a plausible Dark Matter candidate. The topological susceptibility thus measured exhibits a power-law decay for $T/T_c \gtrsim 2$, with an exponent close to the one predicted by the Dilute Instanton Gas Approximation (DIGA). Close to $T_c$ the temperature dependent effective exponent seems to approach the DIGA result from above, a behaviour which would support recent analytic calculations based on an Instantons-dyons model. These results constrain the mass of a hypothetic QCD post-inflationary axion, once an assumption concerning the relative contribution of axions to Dark Matter is made.

description: The RG-2 flow is the two-loop approximation for the world-sheet non-linear sigma model renormalization group flow. The first truncation of the flow is the well known Ricci flow, at two loops higher order curvature terms appear, changing almost completely the behaviour of the evolution equation. In this article we study the RG-2 flow in the context of general relativity. Contrary to what happens with the Ricci flow the RG-2 flow theory has not been studied exhaustively, and from a mathematical point of view there are big differences between both flows. Considering a time symmetric foliation of an asymptotically flat spacetime, we show that the area $A$ of a closed two dimensional surface $S$ is monotonous under the RG-2 flow, refining and extending the previous results already known for the Ricci flow. We show that the inequality that relates the area of the surface $S$ and the Hawking mass, already found for the Ricci flow, is still satisfied when we make evolve the area under the new flow. Finally, we discuss about Perelman`s $W$-entropy for the RG-2 flow and the physically motivated path towards the gradient formulation of the RG-2 flow.

description: We propose a computational method to measure the configurational entropy in generic polydisperse glass-formers. In particular, our method resolves issues related to the diverging mixing entropy term due to a continuous polydispersity. The configurational entropy is measured as the difference between the well-defined fluid entropy and a more problematic glass entropy. We show that the glass entropy can be computed by a simple generalisation of the Frenkel-Ladd thermodynamic integration method, which includes permutations of the particle diameters. This approach automatically provides a physically meaningful mixing entropy, and includes contributions that are not purely vibrational. The proposed configurational entropy is thus devoid of conceptual and technical difficulties due to continuous polydispersity, while being conceptually closer and technically simpler than alternative free energy approaches.

description: We present an analysis of the deepest pure-UV observations with the highest angular resolution ever performed, a set of 12 exposures with the HST WFPC2 and F160BW filter obtained in parallel observing mode, which cover $\sim$12 square arcminutes in the LMC, North of the bar and in the ``general field'' regime of the LMC. The 341 independent measurements of 198 objects represent an accumulated exposure of $\geq 2 10^4$ sec and reveal stars as faint as m$_{UV}\simeq$22 mag. The observations show that $\sim 2/3$ of the UV emission from the LMC is emitted by our HST-detected UV stars in the field, i.e., not in clusters or associations. We identified optical counterparts in the ROE/NRL photometric catalog for $\sim 1/3$ of the objects. The results are used to discuss the nature of these UV sources, to estimate the diffuse UV emission from the LMC as a prototype of dwarf galaxies, and to evaluate the contamination by field stars of UV observations of globular and open clusters in the LMC. We find that the projected density of UV stars in the general field of the LMC is a few times higher than in the Galactic disk close to the Sun. Combining our data with observations by UIT allows us to define the stellar UV luminosity function from $m_{UV}=8$ to 18 mag, and to confirm that the field regions in the LMC have been forming stars at a steady rate during the last 1 Gyr, with an IMF close to the Salpeter law.

A Tolman Surface Brightness Test for Universal Expansion, and the Evolution of Elliptical Galaxies in Distant Clusters

description: We use the intercept of the elliptical galaxy radius--surface brightness (SB) relation at a fixed metric radius as the standard condition for the Tolman SB test of the universal expansion. We use surface photometry in the optical and near-IR of elliptical galaxies in Abell~2390 ($z=0.23$) and Abell~851 ($z=0.41$), and compare them to the Coma cluster at $z\approx 0$. The photometric data for each cluster are well-described by the Kormendy relation $r_e \propto Σ_e^{A}$, where $A=-0.9$ in the optical and $A=-1.0$ in the near-IR. The scatter about this near-IR relation is only $0.076$ in $\log r_e$ at the highest redshift, which is much smaller than at low redshifts, suggesting a remarkable homogeneity of the cluster elliptical population at $z=0.41$. We use the intercept of these fixed-slope correlations at $R_e = 1$~kpc (assuming $H_0=75$~km~s$^{-1}$~Mpc$^{-1}$, $Ω_0=0.2$, and $Λ_0=0$, where the results are only weakly dependent on the cosmology) to construct the Tolman SB test for these three clusters. The data are fully consistent with universal expansion if we assume simple models of passive evolution for elliptical galaxies, but are inconsistent with a non-expanding geometry (the tired light cosmology) at the $5 \, σ$ confidence level at $z=0.41$. These results suggest luminosity evolution in the restframe $K$-band of $0.36 \pm 0.14$~mag from $z = 0.41$ to the present, and are consistent with the ellipticals having formed at high redshift. The SB intercept in elliptical galaxy correlations is thus a powerful tool for investigating models of their evolution for significant lookback times.

description: Quantum information protocols, such as quantum error correction and quantum phase estimation, have been widely used to enhance the performance of quantum sensors. While these protocols have relied on single-shot detection, in most practical applications only an averaged readout is available, as in the case of room-temperature sensing with the electron spin associated with a nitrogen-vacancy center in diamond. Here, we theoretically investigate the application of the quantum phase estimation algorithm for high dynamic-range magnetometry, in the case where single-shot readout is not available. We show that, even in this case, Bayesian estimation provides a natural way to use the available information in an efficient way. We apply Bayesian analysis to achieve an optimized sensing protocol for estimating a time-independent magnetic field with a single electron spin associated to a nitrogen-vacancy center at room temperature and show that this protocol improves the sensitivity over previous protocols by more than a factor of 3. Moreover, we show that an extra enhancement can be achieved by considering the timing information in the detector clicks.

description: We use three ensemble members of the EURO-CORDEX project and their data on surface wind speeds, solar irradiation as well as water runoff with a spatial resolution of 12 km and a temporal resolution of 3 hours under representative concentration pathway 8.5 (associated with a temperature increase of 2.6 to 4.8 degrees C until the end of the century) until 2100 to investigate the impact of climate change on wind, solar and hydro resources and consequently on a highly renewable and cost-optimal European power system. The weather data is transformed into power, different aspects such as capacity factors and correlation lengths are investigated and the resulting implications for the European power system are discussed. In addition, we compare a 30-node model of Europe with historical and climate change-affected data, where investments in generation, transmission and storage facilities are optimised for deep carbon dioxide reductions. Differences in capacity factors among European countries are more strongly emphasized at the end of the century compared to historic data. This results in a significantly increased photovoltaic share in the cost-optimal power system. System costs increase by 5% until the end of the century and the impact of climate change on these costs is of similar magnitude as differences between the ensemble members.

description: The conditions leading to flat dispersionless frequency bands in truly one-dimensional parity-time ($\cal PT$) symmetric metamaterials comprising split-ring resonators (SRRs) arranged in a binary pattern are obtained analytically. In this paradigmatic system, in which the SRRs are coupled through both electric and magnetic dipole-dipole forces, flat-bands may arise from tailoring its natural parameters (such as, e.g., the coupling coefficients between SRRs) and not from geometrical effects. For sets of parameters which values are tailored to flatten the upper band of the spectrum, the solution of the corresponding quadratic eigenvalue problem reveals the existence of compact, two-site localized eigenmodes. Numerical simulations confirm the existence and the dynamic stability of such modes, which can be formed through the evolution of single-site initial excitations without disorder or nonlinearity.

description: In this paper we study a two-dimensional [2D] rotationally symmetric harmonic oscillator with time-dependent frictional force. At the classical level, we solve the equations of motion for a particular case of the time-dependent coefficient of friction. At the quantum level, we use the Lewis-Riesenfeld procedure of invariants to construct exact solutions for the corresponding time-dependent Schrödinger equations. The eigenfunctions obtained are in terms of the generalized Laguerre polynomials. By mean of the solutions we verify a generalization version of the Heisenberg's uncertainty relation and derive the generators of the $su(1,1)$ Lie algebra. Based on these generators, we construct the coherent states $\grave{\textrm{a}}$ la Barut-Girardello and $\grave{\textrm{a}}$ la Perelomov and respectively study their properties.

description: This study presents a comparative evaluation of a Variational Autoencoder (VAE) enhanced with Minimum Description Length (MDL) regularization against a Standard Autoencoder for reconstructing high-dimensional gynecological data. The MDL-VAE exhibits significantly lower reconstruction errors (MSE, MAE, RMSE) and more structured latent representations, driven by effective KL divergence regularization. Statistical analyses confirm these performance improvements are significant. Furthermore, the MDL-VAE shows consistent training and validation losses and achieves efficient inference times, underscoring its robustness and practical viability. Our findings suggest that incorporating MDL principles into VAE architectures can substantially improve data reconstruction and generalization, making it a promising approach for advanced applications in healthcare data modeling and analysis.

Likelihood Methods and Classical Burster Repetition

description: We develop a likelihood methodology which can be used to search for evidence of burst repetition in the BATSE catalog, and to study the properties of the repetition signal. We use a simplified model of burst repetition in which a number $N_{\rm r}$ of sources which repeat a fixed number of times $N_{\rm rep}$ are superposed upon a number $N_{\rm nr}$ of non-repeating sources. The instrument exposure is explicitly taken into account. By computing the likelihood for the data, we construct a probability distribution in parameter space that may be used to infer the probability that a repetition signal is present, and to estimate the values of the repetition parameters. The likelihood function contains contributions from all the bursts, irrespective of the size of their positional errors --- the more uncertain a burst's position is, the less constraining is its contribution. Thus this approach makes maximal use of the data, and avoids the ambiguities of sample selection associated with data cuts on error circle size. We present the results of tests of the technique using synthetic data sets.

description: We use a suite of cosmological zoom galaxy formation simulations and dust radiative transfer calculations to explore the use of the monochromatic $850~μm$ luminosity (L$_{\rm ν,850}$) as a molecular gas mass (M$_{\rm mol}$) estimator in galaxies between $0 < z < 9.5$ for a broad range of masses. For our fiducial simulations, where we assume the dust mass is linearly related to the metal mass, we find that empirical L$_{\rm ν,850}$-M$_{\rm mol}$ calibrations accurately recover the molecular gas mass of our model galaxies, and that the L$_{\rm ν,850}$-dependent calibration is preferred. We argue the major driver of scatter in the L$_{\rm ν,850}$-M$_{\rm mol}$ relation arises from variations in the molecular gas to dust mass ratio, rather than variations in the dust temperature, in agreement with the previous study of Liang et al. Emulating a realistic measurement strategy with ALMA observing bands that are dependent on the source redshift, we find that estimating S$_{\rm ν,850}$ from continuum emission at a different frequency contributes $10-20\%$ scatter to the L$_{\rm ν,850}$-M$_{\rm mol}$ relation. This additional scatter arises from a combination of mismatches in assumed T$_{dust}$ and $β$ values, as well as the fact that the SEDs are not single-temperature blackbodies.Finally we explore the impact of a dust prescription in which the dust-to-metals ratio varies with metallicity. Though the resulting mean dust temperatures are $\sim50\%$ higher, the dust mass is significantly decreased for low-metallicity halos. As a result, the observationally calibrated L$_{\rm ν,850}$-M$_{\rm mol}$ relation holds for massive galaxies, independent of the dust model, but below L$_{\rm ν,850}\lesssim10^{28}$ erg s$^{-1}$ (metallicities $\log_{10}({\rm Z}/{\rm Z}_{\odot})\lesssim -0.8$) we expect galaxies may deviate from literature observational calibrations by $\gtrsim0.5$ dex.

description: We analyse the semi-classical and quantum dynamics of the isotropic Universe in the framework of the Polymer Quantum mechanics, in order to implement a cut-off physics on the initial singularity. We first identify in the Universe cubed scale factor (i.e. the spatial volume) the suitable configuration variable, providing a constant critical energy density, such that the Bounce arises as intrinsic geometric feature. We then investigate the obtained semi-classical Bounce dynamics for the primordial Universe, and we outline its impact on the resolution of cosmological paradoxes, as soon as the semi-classical evolution is extended (in the spirit of the Ehrenfest theorem) to the collapsing pre-Bounce Universe. Finally, we validate the use of the semi-classical effective dynamics by investigating the behaviour of the expectation values of a proper semiclassical states. The present analysis has the merit to enforce the equivalence between the Polymer quantization paradigm in the Minisuperspace and the Loop Quantum Cosmology approach. In fact, our study allows to define a precise correspondence between the Polymer cut-off scale and the discrete geometric structure of LQG.

title: Extra-Legal Characteristics and Sentencing Disparity Among Federal Drug Offenders
Creators: name: Galasso, Justin D.
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University

Year: 2008

description: The development of the federal sentencing guidelines was made as an attempt to provide a uniform standard of sentencing procedure for defendants convicted within the federal legal system. Unfortunately, such unvarying policy has over the years birthed a system of sentencing that lacks equality among like defendants. The Supreme Court, in 2005, ruled that the sentencing guidelines were no longer to be compulsory during sentencing procedures, but rather act as an ancillary tool. The present study examines multiple legal and extra-legal variables and their influence on two aspects of imprisonment probability for federal drug offenders for the years of 1999-2006: in-out decisions and length of sentence received. The current study discovered sentencing disparity in terms of race/ethnicity, gender, educational attainment, as well as several other legal characteristics. The study also examined specific sentencing years in an attempt to gauge the climate of disparity and its impact on the likelihood of incarceration for federally sentenced offenders. The fact that the results indicate that multiple areas of potential sentencing inequality continue to persist is evident enough that a guideline based system continues to offer very little in terms of a final solution to ridding the judicial process of its inherent biases.
Orbital modulation and longer-term variability in the radio emission from Cygnus X-1

description: 20 months of observations of the radio emission at 15 GHz from Cygnus X-1, starting in 1996 October, show variations at the binary period of 5.6 days, but with a phase offset from those at X-ray wavelengths. There are also longer-term variations on a time-scale of 150 days which are only loosely related to the soft X-ray flux. The source was in the hard/low X-ray state throughout this period. The mean 15-GHz flux density is 13 mJy, the radio spectrum is flat, and the semi-amplitude of the orbital modulation about 2 mJy. We discuss the possible origins of the modulation and the relationship to the soft X-ray emission.

Finite-Part Integration of the Generalized Stieltjes Transform and its dominant asymptotic behavior for small values of the parameter. II. Non-integer orders
Creators: name: Tica, Christian D.
name: Galapon, Eric A.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The paper constitutes the second part on the subject of finite part integration of the generalized Stieltjes transform $S_λ[f]=\int_0^{\infty} f(x) (ω+x)^{-λ}\mathrm{d}x$ about $ω= 0$ where now $λ$ is a non-integer positive real number. Divergent integrals with singularities at the origin are induced by writing $(ω+x)^{-λ}$ as a binomial expansion about $ω= 0$ and interchanging the order of operations of integration and summation. The prescription of finite part integration is then implemented by interpreting these divergent integrals as finite part integrals which are rigorously represented as complex contour integrals. The same contour is then used to express $S_λ[f]$ itself as a complex contour integral. This led to the recovery of the terms missed by naive term-wise integration which themselves are finite parts of divergent integrals whose singularity is at the finite upper limit of integration. When the function $f(x)$ has a zero at the origin of order $m=0,1,\dots$ such that $m-λ<0$ the correction terms missed out by naive term by term integration give the dominant contribution to $S_λ[f]$ as $ω\to 0$. Otherwise, the correction term is sub-dominant to the leading convergent terms in the naive term by term integration. We apply these results by obtaining exact and asymptotic representations of the Kummer and Gauss hypergeometric functions by evaluating their known Stieltjes integral representations. We then apply the method of finite part integration to obtain the asymptotic behavior of a generalization of the Stieltjes integral which is relevant in the calculation of the effective index of refraction of a shallow potential well.

description: Given a morphism of (small) groupoids with injective object map, we provide sufficient and necessary conditions under which the induction and co-induction functors between the categories of linear representations are naturally isomorphic. A morphism with this property is termed a Frobenius morphism of groupoids. As a consequence, an extension by a subgroupoid is Frobenius if and only if each fibre of the (left or right) pull-back biset has finitely many orbits. Our results extend and clarify the classical Frobenius reciprocity formulae in the theory of finite groups, and characterize Frobenius extension of algebras with enough orthogonal idempotents.
COMPARATIVE STATICS FOR OLIGOPOLY: DEMAND SHIFT EFFECTS

description: When a demand curve shifts in an imperfectly competitive industry, price, quantity, consumer surplus, and welfare may individually rise or fall. This breadth of possibilities contrasts sharply with the narrower and more predictable effects of either a demand shift in a competitive industry or a cost shift in either type of industry. Even under imperfect competition, however, the pattern of demand shift effects cannot be entirely arbitrary. A system of necessary and sufficient relationships among the changes is established. How profits change when demand shifts is of particular note. When the demand curve rises, profits may actually fall. As shown here, this possibility is unique to imperfect competition: profits always rise with demand under both perfect competition and perfect collusion. The demand shift case again also contrasts with the cost shift case, where imperfect competition is not a necessary ingredient in generating perverse profit effects.
