description: This article reviews the application of the non-equilibrium Green's function formalism to the simulation of novel photovoltaic devices utilizing quantum confinement effects in low dimensional absorber structures. It covers well-known aspects of the fundamental NEGF theory for a system of interacting electrons, photons and phonons with relevance for the simulation of optoelectronic devices and introduces at the same time new approaches to the theoretical description of the elementary processes of photovoltaic device operation, such as photogeneration via coherent excitonic absorption, phonon-mediated indirect optical transitions or non-radiative recombination via defect states. While the description of the theoretical framework is kept as general as possible, two specific prototypical quantum photovoltaic devices, a single quantum well photodiode and a silicon-oxide based superlattice absorber, are used to illustrated the kind of unique insight that numerical simulations based on the theory are able to provide.

description: This is the fourth of five papers that construct an isomorphism between the Seiberg-Witten Floer homology and the Heegaard Floer homology of a given compact, oriented 3-manifold. The isomorphism is given as a composition of three isomorphisms; the first of these relates a version of embedded contact homology on an an auxillary manifold to the Heegaard Floer homology on the original. The second isomorphism relates the relevant version of the embedded contact homology on the auxilliary manifold with a version of the Seiberg-Witten Floer homology on this same manifold. The third isomorphism relates the Seiberg-Witten Floer homology on the auxilliary manifold with the appropriate version of Seiberg-Witten Floer homology on the original manifold. The paper describes the second of these isomorphisms.

description: With more and more extrasolar planets discovered in and around binary star systems, questions concerning the determination of the classical Habitable Zone arise. Do the radiative and gravitational perturbations of the second star influence the extent of the Habitable Zone significantly, or is it sufficient to consider the host-star only? In this article we investigate the implications of stellar companions with different spectral types on the insolation a terrestrial planet receives orbiting a Sun-like primary. We present time independent analytical estimates and compare these to insolation statistics gained via high precision numerical orbit calculations. Results suggest a strong dependence of permanent habitability on the binary's eccentricity, as well as a possible extension of Habitable Zones towards the secondary in close binary systems.

description: The climbing plant Cynanchum rostellatum (Turcz.) Liede & Khanum is widely distributed throughout Korea and Northeast Asia as a member of the Apocynaceae family. Although this plant has a high value in medicinal and industrial purposes, genetic research on this plant is insufficient. This study announces the complete plastid genome (plastome) sequence of C. rostellatum with 663× mean coverage, which was assembled using 763 Mbp short-read data generated by the Illumina HiSeq X platform. The C. rostellatum plastome was 158,018 bp in length and displayed the typical quadripartite structure composed of the large single-copy (LSC) region (89,058 bp), the small single-copy (SSC) region (18,718 bp), and a pair of inverted repeat (IR) regions (25,116 bp). A total of 129 genes have been annotated, including 84 protein-coding genes, 37 transfer RNA genes, and eight ribosomal RNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis indicated the genus Cynanchum including 12 Cynanchum plastome sequences, was monophyletic and was located within the sub-family Asclepiadoideae. Two C. rostellatum plastomes, including the plastome assembled in this study, formed a subclade and were sister to the C. thesioides plastome, whereas the other C. rostellatum, which was previously reported one, was located within the clade of C. wilfordii and C. bungei.

description: The quantification of biomarkers on immunohistochemistry breast cancer images is essential for defining appropriate therapy for breast cancer patients, as well as for extracting relevant information on disease prognosis. This is an arduous and time-consuming task that may introduce a bias in the results due to intra- and inter-observer variability which could be alleviated by making use of automatic quantification tools. However, this is not a simple processing task given the heterogeneity of breast tumors that results in non-uniformly distributed tumor cells exhibiting different staining colors and intensity, size, shape, and texture, of the nucleus, cytoplasm and membrane. In this research work, we demonstrate the feasibility of using a deep learning-based instance segmentation architecture for the automatic quantification of both nuclear and membrane biomarkers applied to IHC-stained slides. We have solved the cumbersome task of training set generation with the design and implementation of a web platform, which has served as a hub for communication and feedback between researchers and pathologists as well as a system for the validation of the automatic image processing models. Through this tool, we have collected annotations over samples of HE, ER and Ki-67 (nuclear biomarkers) and HER2 (membrane biomarker) IHC-stained images. Using the same deep learning network architecture, we have trained two models, so-called nuclei- and membrane-aware segmentation models, which, once successfully validated, have revealed to be a promising method to segment nuclei instances in IHC-stained images. The quantification method proposed in this work has been integrated into the developed web platform and is currently being used as a decision-support tool by pathologists.

description: The maximum force that a crawling cell can exert on a substrate is a quantity of interest in cell biomechanics. One way of quantifying this force is to allow the cell to crawl against a measurable and adjustable restraining force until the cell is no longer able to move in a direction opposite to the applied force. Fukui et al.[1] reported on an experiment where amoeboid cells were imaged while they crawled against an artificial gravity field created by a centrifuge. An unexpected observation was that the net applied force on the amoeba did not seem to be the primary factor that limited its ability to climb. Instead, it appeared that the amoeba stalled when it was no longer able to support a pseudopodium against the applied gravity field. The high g-load bend the pseudopodium thereby preventing its attachment to the target point directly ahead of the cell. In this paper we further refine this idea by identifying the bending of the pseudopodium with the onset of elastic instability of a beam under its own weight. It is shown that the principal features of the experiment may be understood through this model and an estimate for the limiting g-load in reasonable accord with the experimental measurements is recovered.

description: As a generalization of a vector field on a manifold, the notion of an arc field on a locally complete metric space was introduced in \cite{BC}. In that paper, the authors proved an analogue of the Cauchy-Lipschitz Theorem i.e they showed the existence and uniqueness of solution curves for a time independent arc field. In this paper, we extend the result to the time dependent case, namely we show the existence and uniqueness of solution curves for a time dependent arc field. We also introduce the notion of the sum of two time dependent arc fields and show existence and uniqueness of solution curves for this sum.

description: The modification of magnetic properties in spatially inhomogeneous epitaxial films of magnetic shape memory alloys in martensitic state with the temperature variation has been studied. The proposed theoretical model is based on Landau theory of martensitic transformation and statistical model of martensitic state. It was shown that that spatial inhomogeneity of the material leads to the dispersion of local martensitic transformation temperatures resulting in the variation of local magnetic anisotropy values. This model allows describing the dramatic ferromagnetic resonance line broadening observed in the experiments in epitaxial films of magnetic shape memory alloys at low temperatures.

description: There are many existing well known cost models for the list accessing problem. The standard cost model developed by Sleator and Tarjan is most widely used. In this paper, we have made a comprehensive study of the existing cost models and proposed a new cost model for the list accessing problem. In our proposed cost model, for calculating the processing cost of request sequence using a singly linked list, we consider the access cost, matching cost and replacement cost. The cost of processing a request sequence is the sum of access cost, matching cost and replacement cost. We have proposed a novel method for processing the request sequence which does not consider the rearrangement of the list and uses the concept of buffering, matching, look ahead and flag bit.

description: Reindeer husbandry in the Arctic region is strongly affected by the local climate. Reindeer herders are used to coping with adverse weather, climate, and grazing conditions through autonomous adaptation. However, todays rapidly changing Arctic environment poses new challenges to the management of herding activities. Finding means for combining traditional and scientific knowledge without depriving any of the systems of its fundamental strengths is hence deemed necessary. We apply a transdisciplinary framework for knowledge co-production involving international researchers and reindeer herders from different cooperatives in northern Finland. Through climate change adaptation stories, we co-explore how climate predictions can inform herders decision making during the herding season. Relevant decisions include the anticipation of summer harvest time, the inopportune periods of cold weather in spring, and insect harassment in summer. The analysis of two different adaptation stories shows that seasonal predictions of temperature for May and June can successfully advise about the likelihood of having an earlier than normal harvest. Likewise, sub-seasonal predictions of temperature during April and May can be useful to anticipate the occurrence of backwinter episodes, which can support herders in deciding whether to feed reindeer in pens for longer, avoiding putting the survival of calves at risk. This study, which would benefit from co-evaluation in real world settings and consideration of additional adaptation stories, sets the basis for a successful co-production of climate services with Arctic reindeer herders. This research shows the potential to enhance the resilience of Polar regions, offering opportunities for adaptation while supporting the sustainability and culture of traditional practices of Arctic communities.

description: Graphene is intrinsically non-flat and corrugates randomly. Since the corrugating physics of atomically-thin graphene is strongly tied to its electronics properties, randomly corrugating morphology of graphene poses significant challenge to its application in nanoelectronic devices for which precise (digital) control is the key. Recent studies revealed that the morphology of substrate-supported graphene is regulated by the graphene-substrate interaction, thus is distinct from the random intrinsic morphology of freestanding graphene. The regulated extrinsic morphology of graphene sheds light on new pathways to fine tune the properties of graphene. To guide further research to explore these fertile opportunities, this paper reviews recent progress on modeling and experimental studies of the extrinsic morphology of graphene under a wide range of external regulation, including two dimensional and one dimensional substrate surface features and one dimensional and zero dimensional nanoscale scaffolds (e.g., nanowires and nanoparticles).

Also discussed are whether one can hear the shape of a black hole and to what extent one may associate with it a volume.

description: Giving rise to a new and exciting research field, observations of the last 13 years established the accelerated expansion of the Universe. This is a strong indication of new physics, either in the form of a new energy component of the Universe -- dark energy -- or of theories of gravity beyond general relativity. A powerful approach to this problem is the study of complementary cosmological probes in large optical galaxy surveys such as the Dark Energy Survey (DES). We present the expectations for dark energy physics based on the combination of four fundamental probes: galaxy clusters, weak lensing, large scale structure and supernovae. We show that DES data have constraining power to improve current measurements of the dark energy equation-of-state parameter by a factor of 3--5 and to distinguish between general relativity and modified gravity scenarios.

description: A supervisory controller controls and coordinates the behavior of different components of a complex machine by observing their discrete behaviour. Supervisory control theory studies automated synthesis of controller models, known as supervisors, based on formal models of the machine components and a formalization of the requirements. Subsequently, code generation can be used to implement this supervisor in software, on a PLC, or embedded microprocessor. In this article, we take a closer look at the control loop that couples the supervisory controller and the machine. We model both event-based and state-based observations using process algebra and bisimulation-based semantics. The main application area of supervisory control that we consider is coordination, referred to as supervisory coordination, and we give an academic and an industrial example, discussing the process-theoretic concepts employed.

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)

description: Data quality assessment plays an essential role in the quest to detect gravitational wave signals in data from the LIGO and Virgo interferometric gravitational wave detectors. Interferometer data contains a high rate of noise transients from the environment, the detector hardware, and the detector control systems. These transients severely limit the statistical significance of gravitational wave candidates of short duration and/or poorly modeled waveforms. This paper describes the data quality studies that have been performed in recent LIGO and Virgo observing runs to mitigate the impact of transient detector artifacts on the gravitational wave searches.

description: The observed scaling relations between supermassive black hole masses and their host galaxy properties indicate that supermassive black holes influence the evolution of galaxies. However, the scaling relations may be affected by selection biases. We propose to measure black hole masses in a mass-limited galaxy sample including all non-detections to inprove constraints on galaxy mass - black hole mass scaling relations and test for selection bias. We use high spatial resolution spectroscopy from the Keck and Gemini telescopes, and the Jeans Anisotropic Modelling method to measure black hole masses in early type galaxies from the Virgo Cluster. We present four new black hole masses and one upper limit in our mass-selected sample of galaxies of galaxy mass (1.0-3.2) x $10^{10} M_\odot$. This brings the total measured to 11 galaxies out of a full sample of 18 galaxies, allowing us to constrain scaling relations. We calculate a lower limit for the average black hole mass in our sample of 3.7 x $10^{7} M_\odot$. This is at an average galaxy stellar mass of (1.81 +/- 0.14) x $10^{10} M_\odot $ and an average bulge mass of (1.31 +/- 0.15) x $10^{10} M_\odot$. This lower limit shows that black hole masses in early type galaxies are not strongly affected by selection biases.

A particular attention is given to the singularities of the Dirac operator in the phase diagram. A careful analysis of a particular limiting case shows that size effects can be huge, questioning the quenched approximation. This is confirmed by a Monte-Carlo simulation in this limit case and without the quenched approximation. We include also some results concerning the symmetries of this model.

description: Magnetars are highly-magnetised rotating neutron stars that are predominantly observed as high-energy sources. Six of this class of neutron star are known to also emit radio emission, and magnetars are, thus, a favoured model for the origin for at least some of the Fast Radio Bursts (FRBs). If magnetars, or neutron stars in general, are indeed responsible, sharp empirical constraints on the mechanism producing radio emission are required. Here we report on the detection of polarised quasi-periodic sub-structure in the emission of all well-studied radio-detected magnetars. A correlation previously seen, relating sub-structure in pulsed emission of radio emitting neutron stars to their rotational period, is extended, and shown to now span more than six of orders of magnitude in pulse period. This behaviour is not only seen in magnetars but in members of all classes of radio-emitting rotating neutron stars, regardless of their evolutionary history, their power source or their inferred magnetic field strength. If magnetars are responsible for FRBs, it supports the idea of being able to infer underlying periods from sub-burst timescales in FRBs.

description: Context: The large Coalsack dark cloud is one of the rare molecular clouds without clear signs of star formation. Aims: We investigate the dynamical properties of the gas within the Coalsack. Methods: The two highest extinction regions were mapped with the APEX telescope in 13CO(2-1) comprising a region of ~1 square degree. Results: In addition to the well-known, nearby gas component around -4km/s, we identified additional molecular gas components - in particular a second extended molecular cloud at a velocity of ~-30km/s and an estimated distance of ~3.1kpc - that dominate the column density and visual extinction distributions in the northeastern part of the Coalsack. Although comprising ~2600Msun, the mass of this distant cloud is distributed over an extent of ~73pc, much larger than typical high-mass infrared dark clouds. Its filamentary structure is consistent with a compressible gaseous self-gravitating cylinder, and its low mass per length indicates that it may be stable against gravitational collapse. We find barely any mid-infrared emission in archival MSX data, which is indicative of almost no star-formation activity in the near and far cloud complexes. The nearby clouds have narrow, almost thermal velocity dispersions with median values between 0.2 and 0.4km/s, which is also consistent with low star-formation activity. Only Tapia's Globule 2 exhibits a velocity dispersion increase toward the extinction peak and peak-velocity gradients over the core, which is indicative of a state of elevated dynamical properties. Conclusions: The Coalsack is not one single coherent structure, but consists of several cloud complexes nearby as well as at several kpc distance. All studied clouds appear as starless low-turbulence regions that may not even collapse in the future. Only one globule exhibits more dynamical signatures and is a good candidate for present/future star formation.

description: This 5-minute session will demonstrate how the School of Business and Management are developing ‘The Employability Series’, a set of standardised content that is embedded across all levels of our undergraduate programmes. This has been an ongoing and fluid project that started as a student internship project, in partnership with Student Futures. Collaboration with students through a variety of methods: focus groups, feedback, consultation, NSS comments have contributed to the development of the widening out of the ’Employability Series’. The idea behind the ‘Employability Series’ is to ensure that all students within the School of Business and Management are infused with and have the same opportunity to develop their own employability toolkit from CV to LinkedIn, digital skills to clinical practice. The key aim is to break down barriers, challenge perceptions and raise the aspirations of the students, all of which are crucial to their future success. LBS has a broad demographic of students by offering a blanket approach with standardised content across all programmes helps to ensure there is equality and inclusivity of opportunity. The ‘Employability Series’ offers the framework, the programme teams provide the specialism. Attending this ‘flash talk’ will provide colleagues with an understanding of how LBS set up ‘employability infusion’, became agents for change and ensure every student gets the same offer of employability support across the school.

description: This session provides an overview of the work undertaken so far by the Student Futures Team to refine and renew the Placement Learning Code of Practice, so that it can support practice in placements, work-based learning, internships and Study Abroad. Working closely with ITS, Danielle Anderson, Emma Robinson and Chris Finn have developed a leaner and more agile approach to supporting placement learning, which is presented for comment and collaboration. The new code of practice will have fewer forms to complete and be built using MS Dynamics (CRM). This will enable real time data reporting, be more efficient and enable us to work more dynamically with our many valued learning hosts. The aim of the lightening talk is to create a small group of potential users who can assist us to iterate the system development.

description: With potential applications in fields including intelligent surveillance and human-robot interaction, the human motion prediction task has become a hot research topic and also has achieved high success, especially using the recent Graph Convolutional Network (GCN). Current human motion prediction task usually focuses on predicting human motions for atomic actions. Observing that atomic actions can happen at the same time and thus formulating the composite actions, we propose the composite human motion prediction task. To handle this task, we first present a Composite Action Generation (CAG) module to generate synthetic composite actions for training, thus avoiding the laborious work of collecting composite action samples. Moreover, we alleviate the effect of composite actions on demand for a more complicated model by presenting a Dynamic Compositional Graph Convolutional Network (DC-GCN). Extensive experiments on the Human3.6M dataset and our newly collected CHAMP dataset consistently verify the efficiency of our DC-GCN method, which achieves state-of-the-art motion prediction accuracies and meanwhile needs few extra computational costs than traditional GCN-based human motion methods.
Small is beautiful: how graduate talent is empowering the SME in the Liverpool City Region’s post-Covid recovery

description: The role of universities has never been more critical or under more scrutiny. The increased demand for HEIs to respond to the post-pandemic challenges set by Covid-19 is one of the key factors driving the Liverpool City Region’s endeavours to balance education and economics, facilitating a mechanism to sustain far-reaching impact on the economy, society and ultimately through nurturing a sense of community purpose on the road to recovery. Moreover, by retaining graduate talent consideration needs to be placed on the role of universities in providing training and mentoring for businesses, from founder through to scale-up, supporting a critical mass of economic activity and ultimately positioning the Liverpool City Region as a ‘pool of talent’ in attracting new investors to the region. Across the Liverpool City Region, the positive economic impact and social value that retaining graduate talent can have on the wider economy, especially in those communities with higher-than-average levels of educational disengagement and social deprivation, is already regarded as significant. By harnessing European funding (through the European Social Fund), the LJMU Graduate Futures project has set out to provide a platform to facilitate effective dialogue between LJMU and businesses, at scale and across all sectors, fostering a network of collaboration and shared opportunity that will ultimately create positive impact in our communities. Opportunities to increase graduate retention through collaboration, joint working and knowledge transfer partnerships across the Liverpool City Region eco-system will be central to this project so that we might build a sustainable legacy that continues to champion graduate talent on the long road to economic recovery whilst encompassing all 6 Boroughs of the Liverpool City Region and those communities therein. This presentation will set out to reappraise the considerable currency and value graduate knowledge can bring to businesses as part of this recovery process which is intrinsic to the mission and purpose of LJMU Graduate Futures.

Louder than a thousand voices: setting up reciprocal mentoring relationships between black students and white staff
Creators: name: Akinsanya, Moni

Publisher: name: Student Experience Proceedings
Year: 2022

description: The project was firstly set up in partnership between LJMU’s EDI Team and JMSU as a pilot scheme to understand the issues concerning Black students’ progression and differential attainment at university. Led by Moni Akinsanya, Equality, Diversity & Inclusion Manager and Julia Daer, Equality, Diversity & Inclusion Advisor, this scheme has now been running for almost three years, pairing White senior leaders (ELT members, Governors, Directors Associate Deans etc.) with Black and Asian Minority Ethnic students and staff to engage in open and honest conversations about race and racism. The mentoring conversations are mutually beneficial, and White staff share their career journey and insights on how to navigate the world of work. The EDI Team has expanded the scheme in and outside the university, working with external organisations and with key individuals from the Black and Asian Minority Ethnic Community in Merseyside. The mentoring conversations have triggered a series of projects across the institution aiming to create more inclusive study and work environments. We firmly believe that this initiative has been the leading project in enhancing race equality, diversity and inclusion at LJMU in recent years and we could like to invite you to join us to see what's next.

An engaging and pragmatic approach to embedding the LJMU values within your teams and departments
Creators: name: Monaghan, Michael
Publisher: name: Student Experience Proceedings
Year: 2022

description: This interactive session will provide managers and staff with an approach to embedding the new LJMU Values within their team, which help to create more meaningful and richer group conversations as well as individual understanding and alignment with the Values. This approach will help to demonstrate the pragmatic and work-related value of the LJMU Values prior to having group discussions about them. The approach uses the flipped classroom concept to make the learning about the Values more memorable, it provides staff opportunities to find their own meaning with the Values first through Constructive Alignment, the discussions become staff-led rather than manager-led, it allows managers to formatively assess the group’s understanding of the Values in a work-related context, and will encourage peer-teaching and peer-learning around the Values. Options for using this approach digitally or face-to-face will be demonstrated to show how it can be easily adapted to suit the different hybrid working models which Teams may have. This session aims to support the local roll-out objectives for the LJMU Values, making the task easier for managers and more engaging for staff.

Subjects: classificationCode: 300999
subject: Veterinary sciences not elsewhere classified

description: Background: Clients typically turn to their local veterinary practice as the first point of call when they are concerned about their pet’s behaviour, unless they think it is purely a training problem. Therefore, it is essential that the whole veterinary team are aware of the medical considerations that can affect behaviour (including routine training). Many cases involve medical aspects which should be addressed as part of a multimodal approach to problem behaviour management, which may be the most efficient and effective way to support these cases.Aim of the article: This article outlines the medical considerations that should be made in first-opinion practice when presented with a behaviour case in cats and dogs. It also discusses the role of the firstopinion vet in case management and how good collaboration between the vet, a behavioural specialist and the pet owner can aid successful resolution.
Steady-State Ab Initio Laser Theory for N-level Lasers

description: We show that Steady-state Ab initio Laser Theory (SALT) can be applied to find the stationary multimode lasing properties of an N-level laser. This is achieved by mapping the N-level rate equations to an effective two-level model of the type solved by the SALT algorithm. This mapping yields excellent agreement with more computationally demanding N-level time domain solutions for the steady state.

description: Quantum point contacts (QPC) are the building blocks of quantum dot qubits and semiconducting quantum electrical metrology circuits. QPCs also make highly sensitive electrical amplifiers with the potential to operate in the quantum-limited regime. Though the inherent operational bandwidth of QPCs can eclipse the THz regime, the impedance mismatch with the external circuitry limits the operation to a few kHz regimes. Lumped-element impedance-matching circuits are successful only up to a few hundreds of MHz. QPCs are characterised by a complex impedance consisting of quantized resistance, capacitance, and inductance elements. Characterising the complex admittance at higher frequencies and understanding the coupling of QPC to other circuit elements and electromagnetic environments will provide valuable insight into its sensing and backaction properties. In this work, we couple a QPC galvanically to a superconducting stub tuner impedance matching circuit realised in a coplanar waveguide architecture to enhance the operation frequency into the GHz regime and investigate the electrical amplification and complex admittance characteristics. The device, operating at 1.96 GHz exhibits a conductance sensitivity of 29.2 micro-e/SQRT(Hz) and a bandwidth of 13MHz. Besides, the RF reflected power unambiguously reveals the complex admittance characteristics of the QPC, shining more light on the behaviour of quantum tunnel junctions at higher operational frequencies.
Listening to student voice: understanding the needs and priorities of different student groups in online and hybrid environments

description: LJMU aspires to provide a student-focussed and inclusive learning environment for all its students. Pandemic-instilled changes related to teaching delivery, approaches to learning and assessment impacted on student experience in a variety of ways (Universities UK, 2022), and minority ethnic students experience has also been affected (Molock & Parchem, 2021). Ensuring that the voice of these specific groups is heard now, when hybrid learning becomes a norm, is imperative in deepening institutional and sector understanding of successes and challenges experienced by students from diverse backgrounds. Module evaluation provides an excellent source of data for analysis. Analysis of anonymised student responses linked to the demographic data allows us to see how different groups of students respond to the new teaching and learning environment. This presentation will explore student responses to the key module evaluation questions in the last two academic years affected by pandemic (2020-2021 and 2021-2022) by bringing together both quantitative data (scores) and qualitative evidence (comments) to explore differences in the priorities and experiences of students from different ethnic backgrounds. The presentation aims to facilitate discussion around how the university can capitalise on student feedback to best engage with students from different backgrounds to improve their learning experience and attainment.
