description: CERN IT department has been maintaining different HPC facilities over the past five years, one in Windows and the other one on Linux as the bulk of computing facilities at CERN are running under Linux. The Windows cluster has been dedicated to engineering simulations and analysis problems. This cluster is a High Performance Computing (HPC) cluster thanks to powerful hardware and low-latency interconnects. The Linux cluster resources are accessible through HTCondor, and are used for general purpose parallel but single-node type jobs, providing computing power to the CERN experiments and departments for tasks such as physics event reconstruction, data analysis and simulation. For HPC workloads that require multi-node parallel environments for MPI programs, there is a dedicated HPC service with MPI clusters running under the SLURM batch system and dedicated hardware with fast interconnects. In the past year, it was decided to consolidate compute intensive jobs in Linux to make a better use of the existing resources. Moreover, this was also in line with CERN IT strategy to reduce its dependencies on Microsoft products. This paper describes the migration of Ansys, COMSOL and CST users who were running on Windows HPC to Linux clusters. Ansys, COMSOL and CST are three engineering applications used at CERN on different domains, like multiphysics simulations or electromagnetic field problems. Users of these applications are sitting in different departments, with different needs and levels of expertise. In most cases the users have no prior knowledge of Linux. The paper will present the technical strategy to allow the engineering users to submit their simulations to the appropriate Linux cluster, depending on their HW needs. It will also describe the technical solution to integrate their Windows installations to submit to Linux clusters. Finally, the challenges and lessons learnt during the migration will be also discussed.

description: Hybrid mesons, made from a quark, an antiquark and gluons, can have quantum numbers inaccessible to conventional quark-antiquark states. Confirmation of such states would give information on the role of "dynamical" color in low energy QCD. We present preliminary results for hybrid meson masses using light Wilson valence quarks.

description: Background: Frequent migraine with four or more headache days per month is a common, disabling neurovascular disease. From a US societal perspective, this analysis models the clinical efficacy and estimates the value-based price (VBP) for erenumab, a fully human monoclonal antibody that inhibits the calcitonin gene-related peptide receptor. Methods: A Markov health state transition model was developed to estimate the incremental costs, quality-adjusted life-years (QALYs), and value-based price range for erenumab in migraine prevention. The model comprises “on preventive treatment”, “off preventive treatment”, and “death” health states across a 10-year time horizon. The evaluation compared erenumab to no preventive treatment in episodic and chronic migraine patients that have failed at least one preventive therapy. Therapeutic benefits are based on estimated changes in monthly migraine days (MMD) from erenumab pivotal clinical trials and a network meta-analysis of migraine studies. Utilities were estimated using previously published mapping algorithms. A VBP analysis was performed to identify maximum erenumab annual prices at willingness-to-pay (WTP) thresholds of $100,000–$200,000 per QALY. Estimates of VBP under different scenarios such as choice of different comparators, assumptions around inclusion of placebo effect, and exclusion of work productivity losses were also generated. Results: Erenumab resulted in incremental QALYs of 0.185 vs supportive care (SC) and estimated cost offsets due to reduced MMD of $8,482 over 10 years, with an average duration of treatment of 2.01 years. The estimated VBP at WTP thresholds of $100,000–$200,000 for erenumab compared to SC ranged from $14,238–$23,998. VBP estimates including the placebo effect and excluding work productivity ranged from $7,445–$13,809; increasing to $12,151–$18,589 with onabotulinumtoxinA as a comparator in chronic migraine. Conclusion: Erenumab is predicted to reduce migraine-related direct and indirect costs, and increase QALYs compared to SC.

description: We study the properties of the dissipative accretion flow around rotating black holes in presence of mass loss. We obtain the complete set of global inflow-outflow solutions in the steady state by solving the underlying conservation equations self-consistently. We observe that global inflow-outflow solutions are not the isolated solution, instead such solutions are possible for wide range of inflow parameters. Accordingly, we identify the boundary of the parameter space for outflows, spanned by the angular momentum ($λ_{\rm in}$) and the energy (${\cal E}_{\rm in}$) at the inner sonic point ($x_{\rm in}$), as function of the dissipation parameters and find that parameter space gradually shrinks with the increase of dissipation rates. Further, we examine the properties of the outflow rate $R_{\dot m}$ (defined as the ratio of outflow to inflow mass flux) and ascertain that dissipative processes play the decisive role in determining the outflow rates. We calculate the limits on the maximum outflow rate ($R_{\dot{m}}^{\rm max}$) in terms of viscosity parameter ($α$) as well as black hole spin ($a_k$) and obtain the limiting range as $3\% \le R_{\dot{m}}^{\rm max} \le 19\%$. Moreover, we calculate the viable range of $α$ that admits the coupled inflow-outflow solutions and find that $α\lesssim 0.25$ for $R_{\dot m} \ne 0$. Finally, we discuss the observational implication of our formalism to infer the spin of the black holes. Towards this, considering the highest observed QPO frequency of black hole source GRO J1655-40 ($\sim 450$ Hz), we constrain the spin value of the source as $a_k \ge 0.57$.

Consistent Histories and Quantum Reasoning

Year: 1996
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A system of quantum reasoning for a closed system is developed by treating non-relativistic quantum mechanics as a stochastic theory. The sample space corresponds to a decomposition, as a sum of orthogonal projectors, of the identity operator on a Hilbert space of histories. Provided a consistency condition is satisfied, the corresponding Boolean algebra of histories, called a {\it framework}, can be assigned probabilities in the usual way, and within a single framework quantum reasoning is identical to ordinary probabilistic reasoning. A refinement rule, which allows a probability distribution to be extended from one framework to a larger (refined) framework, incorporates the dynamical laws of quantum theory. Two or more frameworks which are incompatible because they possess no common refinement cannot be simultaneously employed to describe a single physical system.

description: The relative orientation between filamentary structures in molecular clouds and the ambient magnetic field provides insight into filament formation and stability. To calculate the relative orientation, a measurement of filament orientation is first required. We propose a new method to calculate the orientation of the one pixel wide filament skeleton that is output by filament identification algorithms such as \textsc{filfinder}. We derive the local filament orientation from the direction of the intensity gradient in the skeleton image using the Sobel filter and a few simple post-processing steps. We call this the `Sobel-gradient method'. The resulting filament orientation map can be compared quantitatively on a local scale with the magnetic field orientation map to then find the relative orientation of the filament with respect to the magnetic field at each point along the filament. It can also be used in constructing radial profiles for filament width fitting. The proposed method facilitates automation in analysis of filament skeletons, which is imperative in this era of `big data'.

description: The effects of live versus audio recorded hypnosis inductions for low and high hypnosis groups were tested in response to experimentally induced ischemic pain. One hundred and seventy one individuals were administered the Harvard Group Scale of Hypnotic Susceptibility (HGSHS, Shor & Orne, 1963) during the first session. One hundred twenty five participants who scored either 0 to 5 or 8 to 12 qualified for participation in the study. Of these 125 participants, 84 chose to participate. Next, the Stanford Hypnotic Susceptibility Scale (SHSS:C, Weitzenhoffer & Hilgard, 1962) was administered to determine their hypnotizability score. Fifty-one individuals qualified for further participation by obtaining either high 9 or greater or low 3 or below SHSS:C scores and participated in the study. Participants were assigned in balanced order and exposed to either a live or audio recorded hypnosis induction and administered and an ischemic pain task. Twenty four high hypnotizables and 24 low hypnotizables completed the study. The highs showed significantly (p <.05) lower pain scores than the lows. Participants in the live hypnosis conditions reported significantly (p <.05) lower pain scores than participants in the audio recorded hypnosis induction condition. Within the high hypnotizability participants, live hypnosis produced significantly lower mean pain reports in contrast to the audio recorded hypnosis induction condition.

description: As of March 2019, CERN is no longer eligible for academic licences of Microsoft products. For this reason, CERN IT started a series of task forces to respond to the evolving requirements of the user community with the goal of reducing as much as possible the need for Microsoft licensed software. This exercise was an opportunity to understand better the user requirements for all office applications. Here we focus on MS Project, the dominant PC-based project management software, which has been used at CERN for many years. There were over 1500 installations at CERN when the task force started, with a heterogeneous pool of users in terms of required functionality, area of work and expertise. This paper will present an evaluation of users' needs and whether they could be fulfilled with cheaper and less advanced solutions for project management and scheduling. Moreover, selected alternatives, their deployment and lessons learned will be described in more detail. Finally, it will present the approach on how to communicate, train and migrate users to the proposed solutions.
SNe feedback and the formation of elliptical galaxies

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2006
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The processes governing both the formation and evolution of elliptical galaxies are discussed by means of a new multi-zone photo-chemical evolution model for elliptical galaxies, taking into account detailed nucleosynthetic yields, feedback from supernovae, Pop III stars and an initial infall episode. By comparing model predictions with observations, we derive a picture of galaxy formation in which the higher is the mass of the galaxy, the shorter are the infall and the star formation timescales. In particular, by means of our model, we are able to reproduce the overabundance of Mg relative to Fe, observed in the nuclei of bright ellipticals, and its increase with galactic mass. This is a clear sign of an anti-hierarchical formation process. Therefore, in this scenario, the most massive objects are older than the less massive ones, in the sense that larger galaxies stop forming stars at earlier times. Each galaxy is created outside-in, i.e. the outermost regions accrete gas, form stars and develop a galactic wind very quickly, compared to the central core in which the star formation can last up to ~1.3 Gyr. This finding will be discussed at the light of recent observations of the galaxy NGC 4697 which clearly show a strong radial gradient in the mean stellar [] ratio. The role of galactic winds in the IGM/ICM enrichment will also be discussed.

description:
Nano-in-micro (NIM) system is a promising approach to enhance the performance of devices for a wide range of applications in disease treatment and tissue regeneration. In this study, polymeric nanofibre-integrated alginate (PNA) hydrogel microcapsules were designed using NIM technology. Various ratios of cryo-ground poly (lactide-co-glycolide) (PLGA) nanofibres (CPN) were incorporated into PNA hydrogel microcapsule. Electrostatic encapsulation method was used to incorporate living cells into the PNA microcapsules (~500 µm diameter). Human liver carcinoma cells, HepG2, were encapsulated into the microcapsules and their physio-chemical properties were studied. Morphology, stability, and chemical composition of the PNA microcapsules were analysed by light microscopy, fluorescent microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier-Transform Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The incorporation of CPN caused no significant changes in the morphology, size, and chemical structure of PNA microcapsules in cell culture media. Among four PNA microcapsule products (PNA-0, PNA-10, PNA-30, and PNA-50 with size 489 ± 31 µm, 480 ± 40 µm, 473 ± 51 µm and 464 ± 35 µm, respectively), PNA-10 showed overall suitability for HepG2 growth with high cellular metabolic activity, indicating that the 3D PNA-10 microcapsule could be suitable to maintain better vitality and liver-specific metabolic functions. Overall, this novel design of PNA microcapsule and the one-step method of cell encapsulation can be a versatile 3D NIM system for spontaneous generation of organoids with in vivo like tissue architectures, and the system can be useful for numerous biomedical applications, especially for liver tissue engineering, cell preservation, and drug toxicity study.
Distinguishing Majorana bound states from localized Andreev bound states by interferometry

description: Experimental evidence for Majorana bound states (MBSs) is so far mainly based on the robustness of a zero-bias conductance peak. However, similar features can also arise due to Andreev bound states (ABSs) localized at the end of an island. We show that these two scenarios can be distinguished by an interferometry experiment based on embedding a Coulomb-blockaded island into an Aharonov-Bohm ring. For two ABSs, when the ground state is nearly degenerate, cotunneling can change the state of the island and interference is suppressed. By contrast, for two MBSs the ground state is nondegenerate and cotunneling has to preserve the island state, which leads to $h / e$-periodic conductance oscillations with magnetic flux. Such interference setups can be realized with semiconducting nanowires or two-dimensional electron gases with proximity-induced superconductivity and may also be a useful spectroscopic tool for parity-flip mechanisms.
Design Pattern for Analysis Automation on Interchangeable, Distributed Resources using Luigi Analysis Workflows
Creators: name: Rieger, Marcel
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2019

description: In particle physics, workflow management systems are primarily used as tailored solutions in dedicated areas such as Monte Carlo production. However, physicists performing data analyses are usually required to steer their individual workflows manually which is time-consuming and often leads to undocumented relations between particular workloads. We present the luigi analysis workflow (law) Python package which is based on the open-source pipelining tool luigi, originally developed by Spotify. It establishes a generic design pattern for analyses of arbitrary scale and complexity, and shifts the focus from executing to defining the analysis logic. Law provides the building blocks to seamlessly integrate with interchangeable remote resources without, however, limiting itself to a specific choice of infrastructure. In particular, it introduces the paradigm of complete separation between analysis algorithms on the one hand, and run locations, storage locations, and software environments on the other hand. To cope with the sophisticated demands of end-to-end HEP analyses, law supports job execution on WLCG infrastructure (ARC, gLite) as well as on local computing clusters (HTCondor, LSF), remote file access via most common protocols through the Grid File Access Library (GFAL2), and an environment sandboxing mechanism with support for Docker and Singularity containers. Moreover, the novel approach ultimately aims for analysis preservation out-of-the-box. Law is developed open-source and entirely experiment independent. It is successfully employed in ttH cross section measurements and searches for di-Higgs boson production with the CMS experiment.

description: Despite widespread speculation about the potential economic impacts of robotic technology, there has been little academic research on the topic. One barrier to this research is lack of data about the robotics industry or robotics employment. In light of this problem, the authors conducted a robotics ‘census’ designed to describe and map the US robotics industry. Several key robotic regions are identified, although they vary in the nature of the robotics industries they host. In addition to reporting the results of the census, it is discussed how the relational and knowledge-spanning qualities of the robotics industry can be important concepts for understanding and facilitating technological change and economic development at the regional level.

High Performance Data Format for CLAS12
Creators: name: Gavalian, Gagik
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2019

description: With increasing data volume from Nuclear Physics experiments requirements to data storage and access are changing. To keep up with large data sets new data formats are needed for efficient processing and analysis of the data. Frequently, in the experiments data goes through stages from data acquisition to reconstruction and data analysis and data is converted from one format to another causing waisted CPU cycles. In this work we present High Performance Output (HIPO) data format developed for CLAS12 experiment at Jefferson National Laboratory. It was designed to fit the needs of data acquisition and high level data analysis, to avoid data format conversions at different stages of data processing. The new format was designed to store different event topologies from reconstructed data in tagged form for efficient access by different analysis groups. In centralized data skimming applications HIPO data format significantly outperforms standard data formats used in Nuclear and High Energy Physics (ROOT) and industry standard formats, such as Apache Avro and Apache Parquet.

description: A method for computing electromagnetic properties of hadrons in lattice QCD is applied to the extraction of electromagnetic properties of the octet baryons. This allows a determination of the full dependence of the baryon masses on the charges and masses of the valence quarks. Results of a first numerical study (at $β=5.7$ with Wilson action and light quark masses fixed from the pseudoscalar meson spectrum) are reported. The octet baryon isomultiplet splittings (with statistical errors) are found to be: ${\rm N} - {\rm P} = 1.55(\pm 0.56)$, $Σ^0 - Σ^+ = 2.47(\pm 0.39)$, $Σ^- - Σ^0 = 4.63(\pm 0.36)$ and $Ξ^- - Ξ^0 = 5.68(\pm 0.24)$ MeV. Estimates of the systematic corrections arising from finite volume and the quenched approximation are included in these results.

description: It is generally understood that the resistivity of metal thin films scales with film thickness mainly due to grain boundary and boundary surface scattering. Recently, several experiments and ab initio simulations have demonstrated the impact of crystal orientation on resistivity scaling. The crystal orientation cannot be captured by the commonly used resistivity scaling models and a qualitative understanding of its impact is currently lacking. In this work, we derive a resistivity scaling model that captures grain boundary and boundary surface scattering as well as the anisotropy of the band structure. The model is applied to Cu and Ru thin films, whose conduction bands are (quasi-)isotropic and anisotropic respectively. After calibrating the anisotropy with ab initio simulations, the resistivity scaling models are compared to experimental resistivity data and a renormalization of the fitted grain boundary reflection coefficient can be identified for textured Ru.

description:
In the midst of the national opioid crisis, it is necessary for emergency physicians and radiologists to be familiar with presentations of opioid-related complications. We describe a case report of a 51-year-old female who developed bilateral cerebellar hemorrhages following opioid and benzodiazepine overdose. Malignant cerebellar edema is a rare but recognized complication following opiate overdose in children or chronic heroin toxicity. However, acute cerebellar involvement is rarely reported in adults. We feel that clinicians and radiologists should keep in mind the possibility of opioid toxic encephalopathy in their differential for adults with acute bilateral cerebellar infarcts and/or hemorrhages.

description: We study the faint radio population using wide-field very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) observations of 2865 known radio sources in the Cosmic Evolution Survey (COSMOS) field. The main objective of the project was to determine where active galactic nuclei (AGN) are present. The combination of number of sources, sensitivity, angular resolution and area covered by this project are unprecedented. We have detected 468 radio sources, expected to be AGNs, with the Very Long Baseline Array (VLBA) at 1.4 GHz. This is, to date, the largest sample assembled of VLBI detected sources in the sub-mJy regime. The input sample was taken from previous observations with the Very Large Array (VLA). We present the catalogue with additional multiwavelength information. We find a detection fraction of 20%, considering only those sources from the input catalogue which were in principle detectable with the VLBA (2361). As a function of redshift, we see no evolution of the detection fraction over the redshift range 0.51.5 we find that spiral galaxies become the most prevalent (48%). We demonstrate that wide-field VLBI observations, together with new calibration methods such as multi-source self-calibration and mosaicing, result in information which is difficult or impossible to obtain otherwise.

We aimed to demonstrate on a wider scale that the panallergen tropomyosin should not be limited to invertebrate species and that clinically relevant reactions could be elicited by vertebrate tropomyosin. On the whole, 19 patients with adverse reactions after fish intake and showing negative skin tests with commercial fish extracts were included. Fish tropomyosin was recognized by 10/19 patients’ IgE by immunoblotting. All patients with gastrointestinal complaints after fish intake (6/6) showed an IgE band matching with tropomyosin. Cod, albacore, and swordfish tropomyosins were recognized by most patients although 3/10 patients did not claim adverse reactions to these fish species. Immunoblotting with a battery of antigens from different fish species have a high yield of positivity at a band matching with tropomyosin molecular weight, even if they have not been claimed to be causative agents of symptoms. Tropomyosin is therefore a good candidate to be investigated as a clinically relevant fish allergen in patients who report adverse reactions after fish intake.

description: In this paper we examine an interesting connection between the generalized Volterra lattices of Bogoyavlensky and a special case of an integrable system defined by Sklyanin. The Sklyanin system happens to be one of the cases in the classification of Kozlov and Treshchev of Birkhoff integrable Hamiltonian systems. Using this connection we demonstrate the integrability of the system and define a new Lax pair representation. In addition, we comment on the bi--Hamiltonian structure of the system.

description: The reconstruction of trajectories of the charged particles in the tracking detectors of high energy physics experiments is one of the most difficult and complex tasks of event reconstruction at particle colliders. As pattern recognition algorithms exhibit combinatorial scaling to high track multiplicities, they become the largest contributor to the CPU consumption within event reconstruction, particularly at current and future hadron colliders such as the LHC, HL-LHC and FCC-hh. Current algorithms provide an extremely high standard of physics and computing performance and have been tested on billions of simulated and recorded data events. However, most algorithms were first written 20 years ago and maintaining them has become increasingly challenging. In addition, they are challenging to adapt to modern programming paradigms and parallel architectures. ACTS is based on the well-tested and highly functioning components of LHC track reconstruction algorithms, implemented with modern software concepts and inherently designed for parallel architectures. Multithreading becomes increasingly important to balance the memory usage per CPU core. However, a fully multithreaded event processing framework blurs the clear border between events, which has in the past often been used as a clearly defined validity boundary for event conditions. ACTS is equipped with a full contextual conditions concept that allows to run concurrent track reconstruction even in case of multiple detector alignments, conditions or even varying magnetic field being processed at the same time. It provides an experiment and, in particular, framework-independent software core with key tools and light-weight, highly optimised event data model for track reconstruction. Particular care is given to thread safety and data locality. It is designed as a toolbox that allows to implement and extend widely known pattern recognition algorithms, and in addition suitable for algorithm templating and R&D. ACTS has also used as the fast simulation engine for the Tracking Machine Learning Challenge, and will provide reference implementation of several submitted solution programs of the two phases of the challenge. We discuss the current status of the ACTS project. We will present studies of the physics and computing performance based on the upcoming first full release. We will discuss challenges in the development of experiment-independent algorithms and illustrate this, by discussing prototype studies of its use in experiments ranging from test-beam to Belle, LHC experiments, CEPC and FCC-hh reference detectors. We will also compare performance between different algorithms, including those based on machine learning.
Nonthermal processing of milk

description: Low frequency ultrasound at different intensities (24 kHz, 400 W, 120 [mu]m) plus heat (63 C) was used to inactivate Listeria innocua in milk; the most intense treatment was useful to pasteurization standards in shorter times. Inactivation kinetics did not follow a first order model; Weibullian and four parameters model better fitted survivor curves. Composition and physicochemical parameters of milk changed after sonication, but are still within reported ranges for processed milk; e.g., protein content remained at 3%. Butter fat content was shown to be an important hurdle in cell inactivation with ultrasound, as lower fat content resulted in faster and higher inactivation. Microscopy studies performed with Transmission (TEM) and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) revealed that cell inactivation with ultrasound is caused by disruption of the cell membrane, pore formation and break-down of cells. With SEM fat globules showed smaller size (<1[mu]m) after sonication, producing a whiter milk color and a more homogenized and stable product matrix. Yogurt was processed with thermo-sonicated milk, showing more compact structure with minor syneresis problems; microwave energy was successfully used as a catalyst during long-term sample preparation for SEM, reducing the required time. Pulsed electric fields (PEF) was used to inactivate spores of Bacillus cereus in milk; processing conditions ranged from 0 to 240 pulses (2.5 [mu]s), 20 to 40 kV/cm; room temperature to 65 C; recirculation/refrigeration systems and nisin (10 and 50 IU/ml) were used selectively to reduce spore load in whole and skim milk. Spores showed resistance to temperature, PEF and the presence of antimicrobials. After 40 kV/cm, 65 C, 140 pulses (2.5 [mu]s) 3.5 log reduction of spores were achieved. During processing, electrode fouling was observed to generate arcing problems because of the presence of milk deposits and bubble formation; the milk layer in the electrode was composed mainly of protein, significantly reducing this milk component. Studies in strawberry flavored milk and model systems using PEF were conducted to study the stability of coloring agent Allura Red. HPLC showed the behavior of this dye, which has better stability when combined with other additives and it is present in high concentrations in model systems.

description: Objective: During the early follicular phase, sleep-related luteinizing hormone (LH) pulse initiation is positively associated with brief awakenings but negatively associated with rapid eye movement (REM) sleep. The relationship between sleep architecture and LH pulse initiation has not been assessed in other cycle stages or in women with polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). Design and Methods: We performed concomitant frequent blood sampling (LH pulse analysis) and polysomnography on 8 normal women (cycle day 7–11) and 7 women with PCOS (at least cycle day 7). Results: In the normal women, the 5 min preceding LH pulses contained more wake epochs and fewer REM epochs than the 5 min preceding randomly determined time points (wake: 22.3 vs. 9.1%, p = 0.0111; REM: 4.4 vs. 18.8%, p = 0.0162). However, LH pulse initiation was not related to wake or REM epochs in PCOS; instead, the 5 min preceding LH pulses contained more slow-wave sleep (SWS) than the 5 min before random time points (20.9 vs. 6.7%, p = 0.0089). Compared to the normal subjects, the women with PCOS exhibited a higher REM-associated LH pulse frequency (p = 0.0443) and a lower proportion of wake epochs 0–5 min before LH pulses (p = 0.0205). Conclusions: Sleep-related inhibition of LH pulse generation during the later follicular phase is normally weakened by brief awakenings and strengthened by REM sleep. In women with PCOS, LH pulse initiation is not appropriately discouraged by REM sleep and may be encouraged by SWS; these abnormalities may contribute to a high sleep-related LH pulse frequency in PCOS.

description: The decay of gravitational potentials in the presence of dark energy leads to an additional, late-time contribution to anisotropies in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) at large angular scales. The imprint of this so-called integrated Sachs-Wolfe (ISW) effect to the CMB angular power spectrum has been detected and studied in detail, but reconstructing its spatial contributions to the CMB $\textit{map}$, which would offer the tantalizing possibility of separating the early- from the late-time contributions to CMB temperature fluctuations, is more challenging. Here we study the technique for reconstructing the ISW map based on information from galaxy surveys and focus in particular on how its accuracy is impacted by the presence of photometric calibration errors in input galaxy maps, which were previously found to be a dominant contaminant for ISW signal estimation. We find that both including tomographic information from a single survey and using data from multiple, complementary galaxy surveys improve the reconstruction by effectively self-calibrating the estimator against spurious power contributions from calibration errors. A high-fidelity reconstruction further requires one to account for the contribution of calibration errors to the observed galaxy power spectrum in the model used to construct the ISW estimator. We find that if the photometric calibration errors in galaxy surveys can be independently controlled at the level required to obtain unbiased dark energy constraints, then it is possible to reconstruct ISW maps with excellent accuracy using a combination of maps from two galaxy surveys with properties similar to Euclid and SPHEREx.

description:
Novel antibody-drug conjugates against HER2 are showing high activity in HER2-negative breast cancer (BC) with low HER2 expression (i.e., 1+ or 2+ and lack of ERBB2 amplification). However, the clinical and molecular features of HER2-low BC are yet to be elucidated. Here, we collected retrospective clinicopathological and PAM50 data from 3,689 patients with HER2-negative disease and made the following observations. First, the proportion of HER2-low was higher in HR-positive disease (65.4%) than triple-negative BC (TNBC, 36.6%). Second, within HR-positive disease, ERBB2 and luminal-related genes were more expressed in HER2-low than HER2 0. In contrast, no gene was found differentially expressed in TNBC according to HER2 expression. Third, within HER2-low, ERBB2 levels were higher in HR-positive disease than TNBC. Fourth, HER2-low was not associated with overall survival in HR-positive disease and TNBC. Finally, the reproducibility of HER2-low among pathologists was suboptimal. This study emphasizes the large biological heterogeneity of HER2-low BC, and the need to implement reproducible and sensitive assays to measure low HER2 expression.
