description: The high concentrations derived for several strong-lensing clusters present a major inconsistency between theoretical LambdaCDM expectations and measurements. Triaxiality and orientation biases might be at the origin of this disagreement, as clusters elongated along the line-of-sight would have a relatively higher projected mass density, boosting the resulting lensing properties. Analyses of statistical samples can probe further these effects and crucially reduce biases. In this work we perform a fully triaxial strong-lensing analysis of the 12 MACS clusters at z > 0.5, a complete X-ray selected sample, and fully account for the impact of the intrinsic 3D shapes on their strong lensing properties. We first construct strong-lensing mass models for each cluster based on multiple-images, and fit projected ellipsoidal Navarro-Frenk-White halos with arbitrary orientations to each mass distribution. We then invert the measured surface mass densities using Bayesian statistics. Although the Einstein radii of this sample are significantly larger than predicted by LambdaCDM, here we find that the mass-concentration relation is in full agreement with results from N-body simulations. The z > 0.5 MACS clusters suffer from a moderate form of orientation bias as may be expected for X-ray selected samples. Being mostly unrelaxed, at a relatively high redshift, with high X-ray luminosity and noticeable substructures, these clusters may lie outside the standard concentration-Einstein radius relation. Our results remark the importance of triaxiality and properly selected samples for understanding galaxy clusters properties, and suggest that higher-z, unrelaxed low-concentration clusters form a different class of prominent strong gravitational lenses. Arc redshift confirmation and weak lensing data in the outer region are needed to further refine our analysis.

Effective Confinement as Origin of the Equivalence of Kinetic Temperature and Fluctuation-Dissipation Ratio in a Dense Shear Driven Suspension

description: We study response and velocity autocorrelation functions for a tagged particle in a shear driven suspension governed by underdamped stochastic dynamics. We follow the idea of an effective confinement in dense suspensions and exploit a time-scale separation between particle reorganization and vibrational motion. This allows us to approximately derive the fluctuation-dissipation theorem in a "hybrid" form involving the kinetic temperature as an effective temperature and an additive correction term. We show numerically that even in a moderately dense suspension the latter is negligible. We discuss similarities and differences with a simple toy model, a single trapped particle in shear flow.

description: Microdebitage -- flakes of stone less than 1.0mm in maximum dimension resulting from lithic reduction or tool use -- comprise a new artifact category within contempor­ary archaeology. Initial studies in identification and methodology sug0est several research problems for which microdebitage analysis may provide ans??ers, but considera­tion of site formation processes and spatial theory indi­cates that microdebitage may be particularly informative for intra-site spatial analysis. Unlike "macrodebitage," which is subject to numerous processes that alter the re­lationship of artifact and activity area, microdebitage distributions may aid in distinguishing activity and dis­posal areas, as well as allowing assessment of "tool kits." Using modified procedures and identification criteria developed in the course of study at the Bow Bottom site in Calgary, Alberta, application of microdebitage analysis to examination of spatial patterning appears to be quite promising. Results from three excavated "tipi rings" indi- cate that reiterative cultural and individual patterns of intra-structure space use are evident. In general, com- parison of macrodebitage and microdebitage distributions suggests consistent patterns of activity, disposal, and alternate use not apparent in macroflake distributions alone. In addition, ethnographic, ethnohistoric, and ethnoarchaeological information all indicate that the patterns recognized microscopically tend to fit expected patterns of behaviour for tipi-dwelling peoples. Given the promising results of this pilot study, gen­eral application of microdebitage analysis to intra-site spatial archaeology for certain sites and under particular conditions appears to be a valuable interpretive tool.

description: We have measured the electrical resistance of micrometric to nanometric powders of the La$_{5/8-y}$Pr$_y$Ca$_{3/8}$MnO$_3$ (LPCMO with y=0.3) manganite for hydrostatic pressures up to 4 kbar. By applying different final thermal treatments to samples synthesized by a microwave assisted denitration process, we obtained two particular grain characteristic dimensions (40 nm and 1000 nm) which allowed us to analyze the grain size sensitivity of the electrical conduction properties of both the metal electrode interface with manganite (Pt / LPCMO) as well as the intrinsic intergranular interfaces formed by the LPCMO powder, conglomerate under the only effect of external pressure. We also analyzed the effects of pressure on the phase diagram of these powders. Our results indicate that different magnetic phases coexist at low temperatures and that the electrical transport properties are related to the intrinsic interfaces, as we observe evidences of a granular behavior and an electronic transport dominated by the Space Charge limited Current mechanism.

We use the sample of 59 high-redshift GRBs reported by Wei (2010), calibrated at low redshifts with the Union 2 sample of SNe Ia, thus avoiding the circularity problem. In this analysis, we also include the CMB7-year data and the baryonic acoustic peak BAO. Besides, it is calculated the parameter of the equation of state $w$, the deceleration parameter $q_0$ and the redshift of the transition to the decelerate-accelerated phase $z_t$.

Transverse emission of isospin ratios as a probe of high-density symmetry energy in isotopic nuclear reactions

Year: 2011

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Transverse emission of preequilibrium nucleons, light clusters (complex particles) and charged pions from the isotopic $^{112,124}$Sn+$^{112,124}$Sn reactions at a beam energy of 400\emph{A} MeV, to extract the high-density behavior of nuclear symmetry energy, are investigated within an isospin and momentum dependent transport model. Specifically, the double ratios of neutron/proton, triton/helium-3 and $π^{-}/π^{+}$ in the squeeze-out domain are analyzed systematically, which have the advantage of reducing the influence of the Coulomb force and less systematic errors. It is found that the transverse momentum distribution of isospin ratios strongly depend on the stiffness of nuclear symmetry energy, which would be a nice observable to extract the high-density symmetry energy. The collision centrality and the mass splitting of neutron and proton in nuclear medium play a significant role on the distribution structure of the ratios, but does not change the influence of symmetry energy on the spectrum.

Photo-assisted heat current and Peltier coefficient in a metal/dot/metal junction

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: The photo-assisted heat current through a metal/dot/metal junction and its associated Peltier coefficient are computed in the framework of the time-dependent out-of-equilibrium Keldysh formalism in the presence of a dot energy modulation. When the frequency of the modulation is much larger than the amplitude of the modulation, the heat current follows the sinusoidal time evolution of the dot energy. This is no longer the case when the modulation frequency becomes of the order or smaller than the amplitude of the modulation. To characterize this non sinusoidal behavior, we have calculated the harmonics of the photo-assisted heat current. The zero-order harmonic can be expressed as an infinite sum of dc heat currents associated to a dot with shifted energies. It exhibits a devil staircase profile with non horizontal steps whereas it is established that the steps are horizontal for the zero-order harmonic of the photo-assisted electric current. This particularity is related to the fact that the dot heat is not a conserved quantity due to energy dissipation within the tunnel barriers.

description: This Master’s Degree Project assesses the policy planning framework for mitigation and monitoring of fish and wildlife impacts resulting from the impoundment of Lake Koocanusa reservoir by the Libby Dan project on the Kootenai River. Complex ecosystemic changes were the result of the sudden change from a riverine habitat to a lacustrine environment, exascerbated by the extreme annual drawdowns to which the reservoir is subject. Further complicating the issue is the fact that the upper reaches of the reservoir ate in Canada, while the lower portion and the dam are in the US. A comparison of stated or recommended objectives of monitoring and mitigration programmes to those followed through shows that agencies in neither country were fully responsive. In Canada, monies so far spent by the BC Environment Ministry ($800,000) have been devoted to identifying impacts, while compensation proposals for both fisheries and wildlife habitat losses remain in draft form. In the US, $4,000,000 has been spent by the Corps of Engineers on the development of a new fish hatchery, and forest treatment by the US Forest Service and Montana Fish and Game has resulted in 34% net forage replacement for wildlife. The lack of hard and fast policy planning may be attributed to a) low public profile creating little political resolve, and b) the absence of a framework to facilitate interagency and international co-operation on environmental concerns. This report recommends the continuation of ongoing environmental programmes, the early adoption in BC of the compensation proposals, and the institutionalization of co-ordinated action by environmentally-mandated agencies in both countries. One hopes that the entire Columbia-Kootenay watershed will eventually be viewed by planning agencies as an integral, albeit international, ecosystem.

description: Sparse coding, which is the decomposition of a vector using only a few basis elements, is widely used in machine learning and image processing. The basis set, also called dictionary, is learned to adapt to specific data. This approach has proven to be very effective in many image processing tasks. Traditionally, the dictionary is an unstructured "flat" set of atoms. In this paper, we study structured dictionaries which are obtained from an epitome, or a set of epitomes. The epitome is itself a small image, and the atoms are all the patches of a chosen size inside this image. This considerably reduces the number of parameters to learn and provides sparse image decompositions with shiftinvariance properties. We propose a new formulation and an algorithm for learning the structured dictionaries associated with epitomes, and illustrate their use in image denoising tasks.

description: Introduction  Chromobacterium violaceum is a gram-negative, motile, oxidase-positive bacillus and facultatively anaerobic. It is widely distributed in natural aquatic environments. Case summary A 24 years old Indian gentleman without comorbid alleged MVA (motor vehicle accident) on 2nd November 2020. He sustained right sided orbital blow out fracture, maxillary sinus fracture with subluxation of orbital globe into right maxillary sinus, and traumatic optic neuropathy. He underwent multiple operation in between 10th November 2020 to 22nd January 2021. CT brain and orbital done on 16th January 2021 showed pus discharge from forehead wound and temporal scalp swelling, skull osteomyelitis with left lid abscess. Pus aspirate from left scalp collected on 14th January and bone culture on 17th January 2021 both grew Chromobacterium violaceum. Patient completed intravenous (IV) Unasyn 3g QID for 5 days followed by Tazocin for 2days. Repeated culture on 19th January 2021 from same side of left scalp wound was no growth. Discussion There are limited papers published in regards to Chromobacterium violaceum osteomyelitis and its association with hospital acquired infection. In this case, patient required multiple operation and long hospitalization but 2 months after admission, pus and bone culture grew Chromobacterium violaceum. American Journal of Infectious Control reported C violaceum isolated from water samples collected under sterile precautions from operation theatre. The contaminated water could be the source of infection and isolates from the hospital environment can be a source of nosocomial infection.

description: The mass-function of dwarf satellite galaxies that are observed around Local Group galaxies substantially differs from simulations based on cold dark matter: the simulations predict many more dwarf galaxies than are seen. The Local Group, however, may be anomalous in this regard. A massive dark satellite in an early-type lens galaxy at z = 0.222 was recently found using a new method based on gravitational lensing, suggesting that the mass fraction contained in substructure could be higher than is predicted from simulations. The lack of very low mass detections, however, prohibited any constraint on their mass function. Here we report the presence of a 1.9 +/- 0.1 x 10^8 M_sun dark satellite in the Einstein-ring system JVAS B1938+666 at z = 0.881, where M_sun denotes solar mass. This satellite galaxy has a mass similar to the Sagittarius galaxy, which is a satellite of the Milky Way. We determine the logarithmic slope of the mass function for substructure beyond the local Universe to be alpha = 1.1^+0.6_-0.4, with an average mass-fraction of f = 3.3^+3.6_-1.8 %, by combining data on both of these recently discovered galaxies. Our results are consistent with the predictions from cold dark matter simulations at the 95 per cent confidence level, and therefore agree with the view that galaxies formed hierarchically in a Universe composed of cold dark matter.

description: Metal oxide thin film transistors have received tremendous attention due to various advantages over the conventional Si-based TFT for the next-generation wearable electronics. However, the surface of a metal oxide thin film is very sensitive to ambient molecules such as moisture and oxygen, degrading the device performance after long-term operation. In this work, we report on utilizing the passivation effect from various phosphonic acids (PAs) to suppress the adsorption of ambient chemical species and the oxygen vacancy defect in the superlattice (SL) structure prepared by insertion of PA between two nanocrystalline In-Ga-O (nc-IGO) layers (7.5% atomic percentage). The most effective stabilization of SL structure is successfully realized with 1,10-decyl diphosphonic acid (P10) treatment. Very impressively, the reference device with pristine nc-IGO film around 10 nm shows a large threshold voltage (Vth) shift of 11.80 V after 10,000 s of PBS (VG = 50 V, VDS = 25 V), but the optimized device with P10 SL structure with similar thickness shows a negligible Vth of 1.21 V with same stress condition. Furthermore, the oxygen vacancy defect suppression also resulted in a small Vth shift of 2.94 V after 10,000 s NBS (VG = −50 V, VDS = −25 V).

Qualitative Study

description: Introduction Value-added Services (VAS) was adopted and implemented by the pharmacy unit to shorten medication refills waiting time. The most popular Pharmacy VAS service in Hospital Tuanku Ampuan Najihah is the Pharmacy Appointment Card System (PACS). This study aims to explore patient's view, belief and understanding on the PACS. Methodology Face to face, semi-structured interview involving 18 outpatients using PACS were conducted. Respondents were queried about; views, perceived advantages and disadvantages of PACS; and facilitators and barriers surround PACS. Thematic content analysis was used to identify insights from the data. Results Identified themes include, 'Attitude', 'Knowledge and awareness' and 'Expectations'. Although dissatisfied towards the efficiency of PACS, respondents would still like to continue this service, citing it as being age-friendly, convenient and stress reducing. Respondents with logistical issues claimed that logistics remained a barrier to prescription refills, despite being subscribed to PACS. Poor service awareness and explanation resulted in low compliance rate towards prescription refills via PACS. This leads to confusion among respondents on the implementation process of PACS. Expectations on PACS include, the allocation of a dedicated PACS counter, a personal reminder message and the presence of highly trained staffs.   Discussion Similar to findings of other VAS studies, patients from rural areas expressed logistical barrier for prescription refills, despite being subscribed to VAS. Conclusion Respondents were satisfied with PACS. Improvements in efficiency and service awareness can boost the adoption rate among patients.

description: Cuphea ingrata is a traditional medicinal plant species of the Lythraceae family. This work reports on the cytotoxic activity of the methanolic extract from the aerial parts of C. ingrata and the n-butanol and ethyl acetate fractions against human skin and prostate cancer cells. The selectivity of action was tested in normal skin keratinocytes HaCaT and prostate epithelial cells PNT2. The ethyl acetate fraction showed the highest activity in all three human skin cancer cell lines: A375, HTB-140, WM793, with IC50 = 15.90; 3.40; 18.75 μg/mL, respectively. To obtain comparative information on the chemical composition, a quantitative analysis of oenothein B was performed using the UHPLC-PDA method. An analysis of its cytotoxic activity was also carried out.

description: Background A review of melioidosis cases was conducted throughout the state of Pahang, Malaysia, from 2000 to 2004, found that there were high annual incidences and mortality rates among melioidosis patients. A series of programs on medical education has since been introduced throughout Pahang, and a registry has been created to track the effects. Methods A comprehensive review of the confirmed melioidosis cases from 1st January 2011 to 31st December 2015 was performed to trace back the cultures from all microbiology laboratories in Pahang. Comparisons were made between these cases and previous records retrieved from the registry. Information was verified from the patient's case note when necessary. Completed data were analysed. Results A total of 239 patients had positive cultures for Burkholderia pseudomallei from the total cases of 249 melioidosis cases. The calculated melioidosis incidence in Pahang, was 2.89 per 100, 000 population every year (4.18 per 100,000 adult population annually and 0.8 per 100,000 pediatric population annually). There were predominantly males (78.7%), Malays (82.7%), and had a median age of 52 years (range 1 -84 years). The most common predisposing factor and clinical presentation were diabetes (n=171, 69%) and pneumonia (n=112, 45.0%) respectively. With the known outcomes, 106(48.4%) of them did not survive, and while the other 113(51.6%) were fully discharged and received appropriate antibiotics for both intensive and eradication therapies. Twenty-two patients (8.9%) had culture-confirmed relapses. Conclusion Despite improvements in patient management, especially in treatment involving antibiotics, mortality rates remained high. A concerted effort must be made to formulate a better strategy to reduce the mortality rate of melioidosis. [Disclaimer: Abstract text might vary slightly from what is displayed in the e-poster]

Competing Risk Approach

description: Introduction Competing risks occur frequently in survival data. Failure to accommodate these events could result in biased estimated probabilities of the event of interests. Methodology We conducted a competing risk analysis of peritonitis risk in a cohort of incident PD patients (n=1,149) between January 2014 and December 2018. Two analytical approaches were used: cause-specific hazard (Cox proportional hazard, CPH) model to identify covariate effects on the rate of peritonitis on patients who were still event-free; subdistribution hazard (Fine & Gray, FG) to estimate the effects of covariates on the probability of peritonitis over time. To avoid overfitting the FG model, we used BIC to select the most parsimonious model. Results CPH regression suggested that older age (HR: 1.42; 95% CI: 1.13-1.78), partial assistance to perform PD (HR: 1.37; 95% CI: 1.04-1.80), and FMC product (HR: 1.69; 95% CI 1.38-2.06) increased the rate of peritonitis in naive patients. FG model suggested that FMC product had increased the probability of peritonitis over time (HR: 1.71; 95% CI: 1.40-2.09). Discussion When competing risks were present, it was incorrect to use the CPH to infer the association of covariates on the cumulative incident of peritonitis on the entire cohort. We were limited to quantifying the association between old age, CAPD assistance, and FMC product to increase rate of peritonitis in patients who were still event-free. In turn, the FG model suggested that FMC product was the most important covariate in increasing the cumulative incident (i.e. probability) of peritonitis in Malaysian PD patients.

description: In this study, almond skin of Prunus dulcis L. variety Casteltermini was characterised for its chemical composition and for the inhibitory activity towards food associated microorganisms belonging to pathogenic (Salmonella Enteritidis, Staphylococcus aureus, Escherichia coli and Listeria monocytgenes), spoilage (Pseudomonas poae and Brochotrix thermospacta) and useful (Levilactobacillus brevis and Saccharomyces cerevisiae) groups. The n-hexane extract of P. dulcis skin, investigated by GC–MS, evidenced linoleic, palmitic, and oleic acids as the main abundant compounds. Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 33862 growth was strongly limited by n-hexane extract and the minimum inhibition concentration (MIC) was 25.5 mg/mL. These results highlight the potential of almond by-products as food bio-preservatives as well as pharmaceutical products.

description: Introduction To assess the knowledge, attitude and practice on hypoglycaemia management among nurses and junior doctors in Sarawak hospitals. Methodology A cross sectional study was done at 6 hospitals in Sarawak with a questionnaire adapted from Journal of Diabetes Nursing. A total of 405 nurses and 119 doctors were selected through convenience sampling. The data was analysed using Statistical Package for the Social Science (SPSS) version 17.0. Results Overall the mean percentage of knowledge, attitude and practice regarding hypoglycaemia is higher among doctors compared to nurses, however only knowledge and attitude have a significant difference (p<0.05). Conclusion This study confirms that although there is a difference in knowledge and attitude regarding hypoglycaemia management between nurses and doctors, there is room for further improvement for both. The need for education and training for both nurses and doctors is highlighted in this study. Integrated education sessions should be carried out on a regular basis to standardize management of hypoglycaemia for all healthcare workers to ensure that proper management can be given.

description: Fluxon transmission through impurities of different shape in a quasi-one-dimensional long Josephson junction is investigated. The junction width is significantly less than its length but, at the same time, is of the order of the Josephson penetration length $λ_J$ or exceeds it. The retrapping current on the impurities of the point, line and rectangular shape is computed as a function of the junction width both numerically and analytically. Good agreement between the analytic formulae and the numerical simulation results for the intermediate (several $λ_J$) junction width is observed.
