description: Magnetic whirls in chiral magnets, so-called skyrmions, can be manipulated by ultrasmall current densities. Here we study both analytically and numerically the interactions of a single skyrmion in two dimensions with a small hole in the magnetic layer. Results from micromagnetic simulations are in good agreement with effective equations of motion obtained from a generalization of the Thiele approach. Skyrmion-defect interactions are described by an effective potential with both repulsive and attractive components. For small current densities a previously pinned skyrmion stays pinned whereas an unpinned skyrmion moves around the impurities and never gets captured. For higher current densities, j_c1 < j < j_c2, however, single holes are able to capture moving skyrmions. The maximal cross section is proportional to the skyrmion radius and to Sqrt(alpha), where alpha is the Gilbert damping. For j > j_c2 all skyrmions are depinned. Small changes of the magnetic field strongly change the pinning properties, one can even reach a regime without pinning, j_c2=0. We also show that a small density of holes can effectively accelerate the motion of the skyrmion and introduce a Hall effect for the skyrmion.

description: Despite growing scientific evidence that essential oils possess important therapeutic benefits, research on their biological activities in complex human disease models is scarce. To enhance understanding in this regard, we analyzed the biological activities of an essential oil blend (EOB) in validated human cocultures with or without tumor cells. These disease models allow for measurement of changes in protein biomarkers induced by EOB treatment. This EOB is primarily composed of essential oils from frankincense resin, sweet orange peel, litsea fruit, thyme plant oil, clove bud, summer savory plant, and niaouli leaf. EOB showed significant effects on levels of important biomarkers related to inflammation, immune response, tissue remodeling, and tumor biology. In tumor cocultures, EOB treatment resulted in elevated inflammation- and immune-related biomarkers, including soluble interleukin (sIL)-17A, sIL-2, sIL-6, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1), cluster of differentiation (CD)40, CD69, soluble granzyme B (sGranB), and soluble interferon-gamma (sIFN-γ). However, several of these same biomarkers were decreased in EOB-treated nontumor cell cocultures, suggesting that EOB exhibits tumor-specific immune enhancement. In conclusion, EOB may potentially impact human cells through anti-inflammatory activities, immune enhancing functions, and modulation of wound healing.

São discutidos os desafios metodológicos de cada um desses níveis de avaliação e apresentados exemplos de como os problemas de análise e mensuração têm sido resolvidos. É feito um levantamento teórico do estado da arte neste domínio e são descritos os modelos mais importantes e reconhecidos de avaliação dos impactos da formação. Faz-se uma reflexão sobre a matriz metodológica da avaliação da formação e discutem-se as condições para a implementação da metodologia ROI. Os dados foram obtidos, através da aplicação de um inquérito online efetuado aos profissionais da área da formação e da gestão dos recursos humanos, que mostram a situação real da avaliação dos impactos da formação nas organizações. Os resultados mostraram que, a motivação dos supervisores e dirigentes é o principal fator no sucesso de uma formação. E que o plano de formação resulta de um diagnóstico de necessidades de formação não estando alinhado com um sistema de avaliação de desempenho. Apesar do elevado interesse em torno da metodologia ROI, o modelo de kirkpatrick é o mais utilizado pelas empresas, devido ao custo associado à implementação da metodologia ROI.

description: We measure the Kelvin–Helmholtz instability in between a layer of a diamagnetic fluid flowing in a channel and a layer of ferrofluid resting on top. When the diamagnetic fluid exceeds a critical flow velocity the interface in between both fluids becomes unstable and waves develop. It has been predicted by Sutyrin & Taktarov (J. Appl. Math. Mech., vol. 39, 1975, pp. 520–524) that a homogeneous magnetic field, oriented horizontally, stabilizes the liquid interface. To test this prediction we apply in a closed flow channel a local periodic perturbation of the interface by magnetic or mechanic means. From the measured growth and decay rates of the interface undulations we determine the critical flow velocity for various driving frequencies and applied magnetic fields. In this way we confirm quantitatively the stabilizing effect of the horizontal field. Moreover we measure the dispersion relation of the interfacial waves.

description: Diversely functionalised pyrazolone analogues have been reported to display a wide range of biological activities. In this paper, we report the synthesis of a series of novel analogues based on piperidine fused pyrazolone core and explore its potential as novel antibacterial agents. The synthesised compounds were analysed using spectroscopic techniques such as 1H NMR, LC-MS, and FT-IR. The major highlight involves the cyclisation reaction of tert-butyl-4-methyl 3-oxopiperidine-1,4-dicarboxylate with the hydrazine component to access the privileged piperdine fused pyrazolone scaffold. This scaffold was further treated with HCl to remove the amine protecting group and subsequently reacted with acid chlorides to deliver the final products in excellent yields. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations were performed to determine the various molecular properties of the synthesised compounds. Based on the reactive sites explored by the molecular electrostatic potential maps, the compounds were screened against two gram positive bacterial strains namely S. aureus, and M. luteus, and a gram negative bacterial strain namely E.coli.

description: In Vuik and Ryan (2014) we studied the use of troubled-cell indicators for discontinuity detection in nonlinear hyperbolic partial differential equations and introduced a new multiwavelet technique to detect troubled cells. We found that these methods perform well as long as a suitable, problem-dependent parameter is chosen. This parameter is used in a threshold which decides whether or not to detect an element as a troubled cell. Until now, these parameters could not be chosen automatically. The choice of the parameter has impact on the approximation: it determines the strictness of the troubled-cell indicator. An inappropriate choice of the parameter will result in detection (and limiting) of too few or too many elements. The optimal parameter is chosen such that the minimal number of troubled cells is detected and the resulting approximation is free of spurious oscillations. In this paper we will see that for each troubled-cell indicator the sudden increase or decrease of the indicator value with respect to the neighboring values is important for detection. Indication basically reduces to detecting the outliers of a vector (one dimension) or matrix (two dimensions). This is done using Tukey's boxplot approach to detect which coefficients in a vector are straying far beyond others (Tukey, 1977). We provide an algorithm that can be applied to various troubled-cell indication variables. Using this technique the problem-dependent parameter that the original indicator requires is no longer necessary as the parameter will be chosen automatically.

description: An exhaustive and theoretical analysis of the CH3SCH3 + O(3P) and CH3CH2SCH3 + O(3P) reactions has been examined using quantum chemistry theory. The potential energy surface was obtained by the CCSD(T)/CBS//M06-2X/cc-pVTZ theory. The overall rate coefficients have been analyzed and the energetics and reaction enthalpies were also calculated. Nine reaction channels have been identified, including hydrogen abstraction channels, CH3S-transfer and CH3-transfer channels. The CH3S-transfer channels forming CH3SO in the title reactions are predominant in the low temperature region (less than 1000 K). Additionally, the CH3CH2SCH3 + O(3P) → CH3SCH2• + OH• reaction is kinetically more favourable than the CH3SCH3 + O(3P) → CH3SO + CH3• reaction. The hydrogen abstraction channels become important competitive channels as the temperature increases. Meanwhile, the CH3CH2SCH3 + O(3P) reaction is more favourable than the CH3SCH3 + O(3P) reaction.

description: This paper considers the stability of tidal equilibria for planetary systems in which stellar rotation provides a significant contribution to the angular momentum budget. We begin by applying classic stability considerations for two bodies to planetary systems --- where one mass is much smaller than the other. The application of these stability criteria to a subset of the Kepler sample indicates that the majority of the systems are not in a stable equilibrium state. Motivated by this finding, we generalize the stability calculation to include the quadrupole moment for the host star. In general, a stable equilibrium requires that the total system angular momentum exceeds a minimum value (denoted here as $L_X$) and that the orbital angular momentum of the planet exceeds a minimum fraction of the total. Most, but not all, of the observed planetary systems in the sample have enough total angular momentum to allow an equilibrium state. Even with the generalizations of this paper, however, most systems have too little orbital angular momentum (relative to the total) and are not in an equilibrium configuration. Finally, we consider the time evolution of these planetary systems; the results constrain the tidal quality factor of the stars and suggest that $10^6\le{Q_\ast}\le10^7$.

Most Accurate Measurement of the Antineutrino Flux Emitted by the Fission of 235U from the Absolute Normalization of the STEREO Experiment
Creators: name: Lhuillier, David
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: The STEREO experiment measures the antineutrinos emitted by the reactor of the Institut Laue-Langevin (ILL) in Grenoble-France. The detector is installed at 10m from the 58 MW core operating a highly-enriched nuclear fuel, which allows a direct measurement of antineutrinos from fission of pure 235U. In this poster, we discuss the developments achieved to control the main sources of uncertainty of the absolute normalization. This includes the measurement of the proton number, the full propagation of uncertainties through the procedure of the thermal power measurement, the dedicated simulations of the corrections to the reference Huber spectrum and the use of the FIFRELIN code to achieve a high quality description of the gamma-cascades from the n-captures on Gadolinium. We achieve the most accurate measurement to date of the antineutrino rate from the fission of 235U and find a deficit compatible with the Reactor Antineutrino Anomaly.

description: Abstract

In essence, every debt must be paid. For debts that are overdue, execution can be carried out upon the creditors' request through bankruptcy proceedings. The Bankruptcy Law (UU KPKPU) provides an opportunity for the submission of a settlement, which serves as a solution allowing the debtor to responsibly settle all debts. A legal issue in the execution of bankruptcy law arises in the context of the Coal Planning and Mining Corporation's legal efforts to claim its right to the debt owed by PT Asia Pacific Fiber (formerly PT Polysindo Eka Perkasa). This research employs three theories as analytical tools: the welfare state theory, the theory of justice, and bankruptcy law theory. The study is normative legal research with approaches including the Statute Approach, Case Approach, and Conceptual Approach. The data used are secondary data, comprising primary, secondary, and tertiary legal sources. The analysis technique used is a library study (law in books) analysis technique. The objectives of this research are to conclude: The position and legal recourse of creditors not included in the homologated settlement under the UU KPKPU framework, based on paritas creditorium, are the same. The bankruptcy legal regime and the parties involved in bankruptcy proceedings have operated in accordance with legal principles, which need to be evaluated for the benefit of the parties involved in bankruptcy law, and the principle of lex specialist derogate legi general does not apply or terminates after the homologated settlement and bankruptcy end, as bankruptcy conditions will conclude once a settlement agreement has been agreed upon and homologated.

title: The smell of fear: comparing the neural ensembles underlying odor fear memory conditioned by innate, inherent, and learned sources of danger
Creators: name: Carew, Samantha J.
Publisher: name: Memorial University of Newfoundland
Year: 2024

description: Memories can elicit strong emotions, both positive and aversive. Recognizing danger cues in an unfamiliar environment can make the difference between life and death. However, if aversive memory formation becomes dysregulated, safe cues can be misinterpreted as danger signals and lead to avoidance, fear reactions, and other maladaptive behaviours. Rats are utilized as model organisms in combination with classical conditioning to delineate mechanisms underlying aversive memories, but human memory is diverse and complicated. This thesis utilized two forms of “higher-order” learning, pheromone- and second-order conditioning, to recapitulate the diverse ways that humans employ associative learning. Alarm pheromones released from a stressed rat can act as an unconditioned stimulus when paired with a neutral odor to produce an odor fear memory in a conspecific. The basolateral (BLA) and central amygdala are consistently activated across shock- and pheromone-conditioned odor memory recall, but pheromone-conditioned and shock-conditioned memories elicit activation in the accessory olfactory bulb and main olfactory bulb, respectively. Rats can also learn that an odor signals danger when it is paired with a tone or context that was previously paired with shock. First-order conditioned and both forms of second-order conditioned odor memory recall elicit activation in the BLA, the dorsal and ventral hippocampus, and the olfactory cortex. Interestingly recall of an odor fear memory that was conditioned with a feared tone activates the lateral amygdala and auditory cortex. Overall, the results described in this thesis highlight that odor fear memory traces are present in some areas regardless of how the memory was conditioned, while other areas participate in memory traces differentially, possibly depending on sensory features of the conditioned stimuli. Elucidating the mechanisms underlying higher-order conditioning are crucial and could provide valuable insight for treatment of disorders involving aberrant fear, such as post traumatic stress disorder, which currently focus on exposure to faulty danger cues to rewrite traumatic memories.

description: Μια από τις πιο βαθιές ανθρώπινες εμπειρίες είναι αυτή της απώλειας. Ένας από τους τρόπους που οι άνθρωποι μεταχειρίζονται για να εκφράσουν και να διαχειριστούν το βίωμα αυτό είναι η αφήγηση ιστοριών, με χρήση όλων των τρόπων και μέσων που προσφέρει ο ανθρώπινος πολιτισμός, από την προφορική παράδοση έως τα σύγχρονα ψηφιακά εργαλεία. Η παρούσα εργασία, επικεντρώνεται στην διερεύνηση του θέματος της απώλειας, όπως αυτή παρουσιάζεται μέσα σε κείμενα και, συγκεκριμένα, μέσα σε κείμενα κινούμενων εικόνων (animation). Έχουν επιλεγεί δύο τέτοιου είδους κείμενα, ένα διαδραστικό animation, το βιντεοπαιχνίδι γρίφων (puzzle video game) Gorogoa και ένα μη διαδραστικό animation, η ταινία μικρού μήκους Umbrella. Μέσα από τη σημειωτική ανάλυση της αφήγησής τους, χρησιμοποιώντας τη μεθοδολογία της σημειωτικής αφηγηματολογίας του Algirdas Julien Greimas, γίνεται προσπάθεια διερεύνησης του τρόπου με τον οποίο χειρίζονται τα κείμενα αυτά, τόσο τη γενικότερη θεματολογία τους, όσο και, ειδικότερα, την απώλεια και τις επιπτώσεις της στις ζωές των χαρακτήρων της κάθε ιστορίας. Τα αποτελέσματα της έρευνας αυτής φανερώνουν ότι τα κείμενα κινούμενων εικόνων είναι απολύτως ικανά να πραγματευτούν «δύσκολα» θέματα, όπως η απώλεια, με ευαισθησία και διορατικότητα, αξιοποιώντας τις τεχνολογικές δυνατότητες και την συνεχώς εξελισσόμενη, ξεχωριστή γλώσσα των κινούμενων εικόνων.
description: One of the most profound human experiences is that of loss. One of methods people use in order to express and deal with this issue is storytelling, making use of all the means and techniques that human civilization has to offer, from oral tradition to modern digital tools. This dissertation focuses on researching the subject of loss, as it is presented in texts and, specifically, in animation texts. Two such texts have been chosen, an interactive animation, the puzzle video game Gorogoa, and a non-interactive animation, the short film Umbrella. Through the semiotic analysis of their narration, using the methodology of Algirdas Julien Greimas' semiotic narratology, an attempt is made to examine the way in which these texts deal with both their general themes and, in particular, with loss and its effects, in the lives of the characters in each story. The results of this research have revealed that animation texts are perfectly capable of dealing with "difficult" subjects, such as loss, with sensitivity and insight, utilizing the technological capabilities and ever-evolving distinct language of animation.

description: A potential source of backgrounds in a ton-scale $^{76}$Ge-based neutrinoless double-beta decay program could arise from particle interactions occurring near the surfaces of high purity germanium (HPGe) detectors. The Collimated Alphas, Gammas, and Electrons scanner (CAGE) is a test stand that allows for in-depth studies of surface events by using vacuum-side, collimated radiation sources to characterize the response of HPGe detectors to radiation at specific locations on the detector surface. LEGEND is a search for neutrinoless double-beta decay in the $^{76}$Ge isotope that will begin operation of a 200 kg array in 2021, with a plan to scale up to 1000 kg of $^{76}$Ge-enriched HPGe detectors in a phased approach. To maximize LEGEND-1000's discovery sensitivity, understanding and discriminating against backgrounds from surface events is essential. In this work we present the design, operation, and current results from CAGE.

description: We consider first generation scalar-tensor theories of gravitation in a completely generic form, keeping the transformation functions of the local rescaling of the metric and the scalar field redefinition explicitly distinct from the coupling functions in the action. It is well known that in the Jordan frame Brans-Dicke type parametrization the diverging kinetic coupling function $ω\rightarrow \infty$ can lead to the general relativity regime, however then the transformation functions to other parametrizations typically become singular, possibly spoiling the correspondence between different parametrizations. We give a detailed analysis of the transformation properties of the field equations with arbitrary metric and also in the Friedmann cosmology, and provide sufficient conditions under which the correspondence between different parametrizations is retained, even if the transformation is singular. It is interesting to witness the invariance of the notion of the general relativity regime and the correspondence of the perturbed cosmological equations as well as their solutions in different parametrizations, despite the fact that in some cases the perturbed equation turns out to be linear in one parametrization and nonlinear in some other.

description: Several plant-parasitic nematode (PPN) species cause decline in the health of creeping bentgrass putting greens. PPNs target and parasitize the root systems of turfgrass which may exacerbate the impact of other biotic and abiotic stress. Turfgrass managers often apply nematicides preventatively or curatively to control PPN populations. However, the inherent chemistries of the nematicides may inhibit their ability to permeate through the thatch layer and soil, resulting in an ineffective application. This research aimed to evaluate the depth of PPN populations through the growing season to maximize the effectiveness of nematicide applications, with a primary focus on lance (Hoplolaimus spp.) and root-knot nematodes (Meloidogyne spp.). To determine the depth of genera across time, soil samples were taken with a 1.9 cm diameter soil probe to a depth of 25 cm during the months of April, June, August, and October at 7 sites across Missouri, three in eastern Kansas and ten sites in Indiana in 2021 and 2022, respectively. Significant interactions occurred between sampling depth and month in both Missouri and Indiana for some PPN genera. Additionally, individual lance and root-knot nematode species obtained from sampling were characterized with molecular methods and in the case with one lance nematode from Indiana, with scanning-electron microscopy. Results suggest an over-representation of H. galeatus in diagnostic literature, and a diverse collection of Meloidogyne spp. present in Indiana on golf course putting greens.

description: We present a framework for the analysis of the error floor of coded slotted ALOHA (CSA) for finite frame lengths over the packet erasure channel. The error floor is caused by stopping sets in the corresponding bipartite graph, whose enumeration is, in general, not a trivial problem. We therefore identify the most dominant stopping sets for the distributions of practical interest. The derived analytical expressions allow us to accurately predict the error floor at low to moderate channel loads and characterize the unequal error protection inherent in CSA.
Measurement and modelling of the energy loss function of 18.6 keV electrons due to scattering processes in the tritium source of KATRIN

description: The Karlsruhe Tritium Neutrino experiment (KATRIN) is targeted to measure $m(\nu_e)$ with a sensitivity of 200 meV (90% C.L.). To determine the neutrino mass, the integrated $\beta$-spectrum of tritium is measured close to the endpoint and a fit to the data, comprising the neutrino mass as a free parameter, is performed. A number of systematic effects need to be taken into account in the analysis. One of the major effects is the energy loss from inelastic scattering of beta-electrons with the source gas. The corresponding energy loss function can be measured by means of an electron gun producing quasi-monoenergetic electrons at 18.6 keV with very small angular spread both in cw and pulsed mode. A new semi-empirical model has been developed based on the experimental data. This contribution presents the new model and its impact on the KATRIN neutrino mass sensitivity.

description: The clustering coefficient and the transitivity ratio are concepts often used in network analysis, which creates a need for fast practical algorithms for counting triangles in large graphs. Previous research in this area focused on sequential algorithms, MapReduce parallelization, and fast approximations. In this paper we propose a parallel triangle counting algorithm for CUDA GPU. We describe the implementation details necessary to achieve high performance and present the experimental evaluation of our approach. Our algorithm achieves 8 to 15 times speedup over the CPU implementation and is capable of finding 3.8 billion triangles in an 89 million edges graph in less than 10 seconds on the Nvidia Tesla C2050 GPU.

description: The order Gyracanthocephala Van Cleave, 1936 includes family Quadrigyridae Van Clea, e, 1920 divided into two sub-families Quadrigyrinae Van Cleave, 1920, with one genus Quadrigyrus from India and Pallisentinae Amin, 1985, with four genera Pallisentis Van Cleave, 1928; Acanthosenus Verma and Dutta, 1929; Acanthogyrus Thapar, 1927 and Raosentis Dutta, 1947) from India. Galvan (1959) synonymised Acanthosentis Verma and Dutta, 1929 with Acanthogyrus Thapar, 1927 and reduced Acanthoseniis to a subgenus further Galvan (l 994) reconsidered the generic status of Acanthosentis. Amin (2005) in agreement with Amin ( 1985) and Amin & Hendrix (1999) retained the status of Acanthosentis as sub-genus, most probably he has not got access of literature of Verma and Dutta, 1929. Bhattacharya (2007) in agreement with Verma and Dutta, 1925 given Acanthosentis to full generic status with proper justification supported by key, and authors are also in agreement with this. The type species Acanthosentis antespinus Verma & Dutta, 1929 was reported from fish Mystus gulio at Calcutta, India. Other species reported from India are A. duttai Podder, 1938; A. sircari Podder, 1941; A. giuris Soota and Sen, 1954; A. betwai Tripathi, 1959; A. indicus Tripathi, 1959; A. cameroni Gupta and Kajaji, 1969; A. thapari Prashad et al. 1969; A. bacailai Verma, 1973; A. vittatusi Verma, 1973; A. golvani Gupta & Jain, 1980; A. shuklai Agrawal & Singh, 1982; A. vancleavi Gupta & Fatma 1985; A. bilaspurensis Chowhan er al, 1987; A. gobindi Chowhan et al. 1987; A. putitorae Chowhan et al. 1988 and A. seenghalae Chowhan et al, 1988.

MicroBooNE's Search for a Photon-Like Low Energy Excess
Creators: name: Sutton, Kathryn
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: MicroBooNE is a Liquid Argon Time Projection Chamber which has been taking neutrino data at Fermilab's Booster Neutrino Beamline since October 2015. One of its primary goals is to investigate the "Low Energy Excess" of neutrino events observed by the MiniBooNE experiment, for which candidate interpretations include an underestimation of neutrino neutral current (NC) resonant Delta production with subsequent radiative decay or another anomalous source of single photon production in neutrino interactions. NC Delta radiative decay could be a sizable contribution to the "Low Energy Excess". This poster will present first results from the analysis developed to search for NC Delta radiative events in MicroBooNE, consisting of a boosted decision tree based event selection with a NC neutral pion background constraint.
