description: Background Newcastle disease is a devastating disease in poultry caused by virulent Newcastle disease virus (NDV), a paramyxovirus endemic in many regions of the world despite intensive vaccination. Phylogenetic analyses reveal ongoing evolution of the predominant circulating genotype 2.VII, and the relevance of potential antigenic drift is under discussion. To investigate variation within neutralization-sensitive epitopes within the protein responsible for receptor binding, i.e. the Hemagglutinin-Neuraminidase (HN) spike protein, we were interested in establishing genotype-specific monoclonal antibodies (MAbs). Methods An HN-enriched fraction of a gradient-purified NDV genotype 2.VII was prepared and successfully employed to induce antibodies in BalbC mice that recognize conformationally intact sites reactive by haemagglutination inhibition (HI). For subsequent screening of mouse hybridoma cultures, an NDV-ELISA was established that utilizes Concanavalin A (ConA-ELISA) coupled glycoproteins proven to present conformation-dependent epitopes. Results Six out of nine selected MAbs were able to block receptor binding as demonstrated by HI activity. One MAb recognized an epitope only present in the homologue virus, while four other MAbs showed weak reactivity to selected other genotypes. On the other hand, one broadly cross-reacting MAb reacted with all genotypes tested and resembled the reactivity profile of genotype-specific polyclonal antibody preparations that point to minor antigenic differences between tested NDV genotpyes. Conclusions These results point to the concurrent presence of variable and conserved epitopes within the HN molecule of NDV. The described protocol should help to generate MAbs against a variety of NDV strains and to enable in depth analysis of the antigenic profiles of different genotypes.

description: Fluorenyl cations are textbook examples of 4π electron antiaromatic five-membered ring systems. So far, they were reported only as short-lived intermediates generated under superacidic conditions or by flash photolysis. Attempts to prepare a m-terphenyl acylium cation by fluoride abstraction from a benzoyl fluoride gave rise to an isolable 9-hydroxy fluorenyl cation that formed by an intramolecular electrophilic attack at a flanking mesityl group prior to a 1,2-methyl shift and proton transfer to oxygen.

description: Observationally confirming spatial homogeneity on sufficiently large cosmological scales is of importance to test one of the underpinning assumptions of cosmology, and is also imperative for correctly interpreting dark energy. A challenging aspect of this is that homogeneity must be probed inside our past lightcone, while observations take place on the lightcone. The star formation history (SFH) in the galaxy fossil record provides a novel way to do this. We calculate the SFH of stacked Luminous Red Galaxy (LRG) spectra obtained from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey. We divide the LRG sample into 12 equal area contiguous sky patches and 10 redshift slices (0.2 < z < 0.5), which correspond to 120 blocks of volume 0.04Gpc3. Using the SFH in a time period which samples the history of the Universe between look-back times 11.5 to 13.4 Gyrs as a proxy for homogeneity, we calculate the posterior distribution for the excess large-scale variance due to inhomogeneity, and find that the most likely solution is no extra variance at all. At 95% credibility, there is no evidence of deviations larger than 5.8%.

description: We investigated the gravitational microlensing of active galactic nucleus dusty tori in the case of lensed quasars in the infrared domain. The dusty torus is modeled as a clumpy two-phase medium. To obtain spectral energy distributions and images of tori at different wavelengths, we used the 3D Monte Carlo radiative transfer code SKIRT. A ray-shooting technique has been used to calculate microlensing magnification maps. We simulated microlensing by the stars in the lens galaxy for different configurations of the lensed system and different values of the torus parameters, in order to estimate (a) amplitudes and timescales of high magnification events, and (b) the influence of geometrical and physical properties of dusty tori on light curves in the infrared domain. We found that, despite their large size, dusty tori could be significantly affected by microlensing in some cases, especially in the near-infrared domain (rest-frame). The very long time-scales of such events, in the range from several decades to hundreds of years, are limiting the practical use of this method to study the properties of dusty tori. However, our results indicate that, when studying flux ratios between the images in different wavebands of lensed quasars, one should not disregard the possibility that the near and mid-infrared flux ratios could be under the influence of microlensing.

description: What does the diversity of social movements and food initiatives tell us about processes of social change? I argue that they offer a productive analytical lens to observe social change because they identify injustices and dynamics of inequalities in the food system and are actively engaged in transforming these. Alternative local food initiatives react to the environmental impacts of globalized food relations; food sovereignty movements highlight class inequalities and power asymmetries in the food system that affect people’s rights to culturally appropriate foodways; food justice movements denounce institutional racism; feminist movements fight persistent gender inequalities from food production to consumption; vegan movements defend animal rights. These are often mapped onto different world regions, with food justice movements more present in the US; food sovereignty movements louder in the Global South; feminist food movements more active in Latin America; and local food movements commonly in the Global North. This article brings together diverse strands of activism and research on social inequalities related to food under the conceptual umbrella of food inequalities. In addition to concept building, it contributes to a sociology of food studies by mapping the geopolitics of knowledge about social change behind the growing mobilization around food issues.

description: In this paper, we study the nonnegative matrix factorization problem under the separability assumption (that is, there exists a cone spanned by a small subset of the columns of the input nonnegative data matrix containing all columns), which is equivalent to the hyperspectral unmixing problem under the linear mixing model and the pure-pixel assumption. We present a family of fast recursive algorithms, and prove they are robust under any small perturbations of the input data matrix. This family generalizes several existing hyperspectral unmixing algorithms and hence provides for the first time a theoretical justification of their better practical performance.

On the Landau theory of phase transitions

Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The Landau theory of phase transitions has been re-examined under the framework of a modified mean field theory in ferroelectrics. By doing so, one can see that there are two atomic movements involved in the ferroelectric phase transition; the first corresponds to the vibration of crystalline lattice, which will render phonon mode softening at the critical point, and the second represents the slow evolution of a partially ordered nematic phase formed by the cooperative behavior of high-temperature structure precursors. In this hierarchical dynamic structure, the former fast dynamics could be significantly modulated by the latter slow dynamics in the vicinity of the Curie temperature; it then turns out that it is the behavior of the nematic phase on approaching the critical point that makes the Landau theory deviate from experimental observations.

description: Fabrication of hybrid photoelectrodes on a subsecond timescale with low energy consumption and possessing high photocurrent densities remains a centerpiece for successful implementation of photoelectrocatalytic synthesis of fuels and value-added chemicals. Here, we introduce a laser-driven technology to print sensitizers with desired morphologies and layer thickness onto different substrates, such as glass, carbon, or carbon nitride (CN). The specially designed process uses a thin polymer reactor impregnated with transition metal salts, confining the growth of transition metal oxide (TMO) nanostructures on the interface in milliseconds, while their morphology can be tuned by the laser. Multiple nano-p-n junctions at the interface increase the electron/hole lifetime by efficient charge trapping. A hybrid copper oxide/CN photoanode with optimal architecture reaches 10 times higher photocurrents than the pristine CN photoanode. This technology provides a modular approach to build a library of TMO-based composite films, enabling the creation of materials for diverse applications.

description: Using $^{63,65}$Cu nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in magnetic fields up to 30 T we study the microscopic properties of the 12-site valence-bond-solid ground state in the "pinwheel" kagome compound Rb$_2$Cu$_3$SnF$_{12}$. We find that the ground state is characterized by a strong transverse staggered spin polarization whose temperature and field dependence points to a mixing of the singlet and triplet states. This is further corroborated by the field dependence of the gap $Δ(H)$, which has a level anticrossing with a large minimum gap value of $\approx Δ(0)/2$, with no evidence of a phase transition down to 1.5\,K. By the exact diagonalization of small clusters, we show that the observed anticrossing is mainly due to staggered tilts of the $g$-tensors defined by the crystal structure, and reveal symmetry properties of the low-energy excitation spectrum compatible with the absence of level crossing.

A giant solution to the disc mass budget problem of planet formation

Subjects: planet formation

description: The inferred dust masses from Class II protoplanetary disc observations are smaller or equal to the observed exoplanet systems and this has ignited a mass budget problem discussion. Planet formation is directly linked to the birthing environment that protoplanetary discs provide. The disc properties determine if a giant planet forms and how it evolves. We perform numerical simulations of planet formation via pebble and gas accretion, including migration, in a viscously evolving protoplanetary disc, investigating the most favorable conditions for giant planet formation, while tracing the dust mass evolution simultaneously. As expected, the presence of a giant planet in the disc can significantly influence the evolution of the disc itself and prevent rapid dust mass loss by trapping the dust outside its orbit. We find that early planet formation is crucial to forming a giant, along with a high initial disc mass. Larger disc radii ensure a pebble flux for a long time, which is beneficial for growing the cores of giant planets. However, smaller discs with the same mass can allow more efficient gas accretion onto already-formed planetary cores, due to the larger amount of available gas, leading to more massive gas giants. Our findings strengthen the hypothesis that planet formation has already happened or is ongoing in Class II discs. Most importantly, we find that the optically thin dust mass significantly underestimates the total dust mass in the presence of a giant planet and could be the answer to the hypothetical mass budget problem.

Stapled peptides

description: Macrocyclic peptides have been identified as key backbones in several biologically active compounds. They have been considered as great inspiration in the development of novel cyclic scaffolds in medicinal chemistry, notably in the introduction of α-helically constricted stapled peptides with the ability to mimic biologically relevant α-helices. DNA-binding transcription factors often bind their DNA promoter through an α-helix, making a parallel with stapled peptides as inhibitors. Despite this relevant feature, DNA-binding stapled peptides are highly unrepresented in the literature, as will be discussed here in a review. We also further expand this area of research with a study of DNA binding stapled peptide ana-logues with the goal of optimizing and investigating the DNA binding and antivirulence of an RpoN-based stapled peptide. Cyclic depsipeptides are highly biologically active natural product molecules however their synthesis can be challenging with the presence of a macrolactone. Due to this complexity, solid phase peptide synthesis strategies have been utilized to access peptide intermediates that can be synthetically macrocyclized using solution phase or on-resin approaches via macrolactam or macrolactone formation. A representative number of total syntheses in the literature is reviewed. Furthermore, we describe here the chemical total synthesis and chemoenzymatic synthesis of seongsanamide E cyclic depesipeptide via thioesterase medi-ated macrolactonization. Cyclic depsipeptides also play major roles in their producing organisms, notably siderophores capable of chelating and transporting iron. The biosynthesis of fungal siderophores is poorly explored, such as the iterative mechanism of oligomeric compound fusarinine C. We explore the synthesis of the previously never synthesized fusarinine C monomer to be utilized as a di-domain inhibitor of the adenylating-thiolation domains of the non-ribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) SidD.

description: The thesis deals with the coordination chemistry of several diverse classes of ligands with different metals. The key features of the thesis are as follows: 1. A series of novel, low molecularity lanthanoid tellurolate complexes are synthesized using intramolecularly coordinated hybrid ligands, namely 2-{(dimethylamino)methyl}phenyl tellurolate and quinoline-8 tellurolate. DFT calculations suggest that the nature of bonding between Te and Ln is predominantly ionic in nature with slight mixing of covalency. 2. The structural characterization of bis(8-sulfanylquinolinium) hexachloridostannate(IV) is reported and its variable reaction behavior in different solvent is explored. 3. A series of novel Ru and Os complexes of bidentate ligand, N,N ́-bis(2-pyridyl)benzene-1,2-diamine are synthesized and their accessible oxidized and reduced forms are experimentally studied. 4. The synthesis and structural aspects of Pd, Pt, Se and Te complexes of pyrrole based NNN-pincer ligands, namely 2,5-bis[(dimethylamino)methyl] pyrrole, 2,5-bis[(pyrrolidino)methyl] pyrrole and 2,5- bis[(piperidino)methyl] pyrrole are explored.

description: Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV), an enveloped positive-strand RNA virus in the Arteiviridae family, is a major pathogen affecting pigs worldwide. The membrane (glyco)proteins GP5 and M form a disulfide-linked dimer, which is a major component of virions. GP5/M are required for virus budding, which occurs at membranes of the exocytic pathway. Both GP5 and M feature a short ectodomain, three transmembrane regions, and a long cytoplasmic tail, which contains three and two conserved cysteines, respectively, in close proximity to the transmembrane span. We report here that GP5 and M of PRRSV-1 and -2 strains are palmitoylated at the cysteines, regardless of whether the proteins are expressed individually or in PRRSV-infected cells. To completely prevent S-acylation, all cysteines in GP5 and M have to be exchanged. If individual cysteines in GP5 or M were substituted, palmitoylation was reduced, and some cysteines proved more important for efficient palmitoylation than others. Neither infectious virus nor genome-containing particles could be rescued if all three cysteines present in GP5 or both present in M were replaced in a PRRSV-2 strain, indicating that acylation is essential for virus growth. Viruses lacking one or two acylation sites in M or GP5 could be rescued but grew to significantly lower titers. GP5 and M lacking acylation sites form dimers and GP5 acquires Endo-H resistant carbohydrates in the Golgi apparatus suggesting that trafficking of the membrane proteins to budding sites is not disturbed. Likewise, GP5 lacking two acylation sites is efficiently incorporated into virus particles and these viruses exhibit no reduction in cell entry. We speculate that multiple fatty acids attached to GP5 and M in the endoplasmic reticulum are required for clustering of GP5/M dimers at Golgi membranes and constitute an essential prerequisite for virus assembly.

description: The size, mass, luminosity, and space density of Lyman-alpha emitting (LAE) galaxies observed at intermediate to high redshift agree with expectations for the properties of galaxies that formed metal-poor halo globular clusters (GCs). The low metallicity of these clusters is the result of their formation in low-mass galaxies. Metal-poor GCs could enter spiral galaxies along with their dwarf galaxy hosts, unlike metal-rich GCs which form in the spirals themselves. Considering an initial GC mass larger than the current mass to account for multiple stellar populations, and considering the additional clusters that are likely to form with massive clusters, we estimate that each GC with a mass today greater than 2x10^5 Msun was likely to have formed among a total stellar mass ~3x10^7 Msun, a molecular mass ~10^9 Msun, and 10^7 to 10^9 Msun of older stars, depending on the relative gas fraction. The star formation rate would have been several Msun/yr lasting for ~10^7 yrs, and the Lyman-alpha luminosity would have been ~10^42 erg/s. Integrating the LAE galaxy luminosity function above this minimum, considering the average escape probability for Lyalpha photons (25%), and then dividing by the probability that a dwarf galaxy is observed in the LAE phase (0.4%), we find agreement between the co-moving space density of LAEs and the average space density of metal-poor globular clusters today. The local galaxy WLM, with its early starburst and old GC, could be an LAE remnant that did not get into a galaxy halo because of its remote location.

Exhibition Catalogue

description: Tai Timu Tai Pari exhibition catalogue.
Tai Timu Tai Pari, the rising and falling of the tides is an inherent element within the catalogues form. Firstly, this is this relatively accessibly reflected in the ripples across the top of the catalogue. A metaphor which functions on a number of levels, both directly as a reference to the Cargo Sheds corrugated iron skin and to the ebb and flood of the tides, rising and falling essentially infinitely when viewed from a human timescale. Personally this repeating pattern is the noise my two year olds fingers make when running across the corrugated iron as we walk past. Me pushing the buggy, him leaning out to touch the surface. The pattern is cut into the catalogues form to physically connect one to the other, building to catalogue, catalogue to building. 
Secondly, the catalogue wrap is an embodiment of change. Contents pages are not bound in the traditional book binding sense, rather they are contained within the bounds of the wrap. Metaphorically reflecting the artwork bound by the buildings confines. There are no page numbers, and the order of pages is not consistent across individual publications. It is expected that as soon as the catalogue is engaged with, and pages are removed to be read the order of pages will change and will constantly change with each reading. Each readers physical experience of the catalogue will differ, and they will impose their own order on the works contained within. I see this as a connection to my overall response to the Cargo Shed site from a place building perspective, where each person forms a unique relationship to this site and ideally will form a unique relationship to the catalogue.

description: Complex systems can, to a first approximation, be characterized by the fact that their dynamics emerging at the macroscopic level cannot be easily explained from the microscopic dynamics of the individual constituents of the system. This property of complex systems can be identified in virtually all natural systems surrounding us, but also in many social, economic, and technological systems. The defining characteristics of complex systems imply that their dynamics can often only be captured from the analysis of simulated or observed data. Here, we summarize recent advances in nonlinear data analysis of both simulated and real-world complex systems, with a focus on recurrence analysis for the investigation of individual or small sets of time series, and complex networks for the analysis of possibly very large, spatiotemporal datasets. We review and explain the recent success of these two key concepts of complexity science with an emphasis on applications for the analysis of geoscientific and in particular (palaeo-) climate data. In particular, we present several prominent examples where challenging problems in Earth system and climate science have been successfully addressed using recurrence analysis and complex networks. We outline several open questions for future lines of research in the direction of data-based complex system analysis, again with a focus on applications in the Earth sciences, and suggest possible combinations with suitable machine learning approaches. Beyond Earth system analysis, these methods have proven valuable also in many other scientific disciplines, such as neuroscience, physiology, epidemics, or engineering.

description: Global warming increases the risk of heat stress in Europe. Hence, heat stress must be considered as a health hazard for individuals working in outdoors and indoors conditions. Physiologically equivalent temperature (PET) is more related to the perceived temperature, but most of the current Local Climate Zone (LCZ) studies focus on measured temperature, instead of PET. Therefore, in this research, PET was applied to evaluate the thermal component of the outdoor microclimate for the first time in Berlin during a (1) hot spell, and (2) a normal period during July to August 2018. The aim of the present study is to explore the impacts of outdoor surroundings on human thermal comfort and its perception during the day and nighttime. Based on 32 micrometeorological stations located in different LCZs, the outdoor thermal sensation was investigated in order to find hourly thermal stress level conditions. Based on the mean hourly thermal sensation, the highest PET value was observed in, LCZ 4, “open high-rise” with 33.76 °C at 1400 CET, which represents a thermal stress level of “moderate heat stress”. The LCZ 2 showed “slight heat stress”, at the same time. High Sky View Factor (SVF) and relative humidity in “open high-rise” caused the highest PET. From the afternoon around 1800 CET to early morning 0600 CET, LCZ 2 is one thermal stress level warmer than all other existing LCZs in Berlin. During the hot spell, the hottest time period of the day was between 1600 CET to 1700 CET. In the morning from 0700 CET and midnight, the LCZ 2 was warmer than other local climate zones as the heat capacity of the buildings is high. Maximum hourly PET values illustrate that LCZ 4 was the warmest LCZ in which thermal sensation was ‘very hot’ between 0800 CET to 1700 CET. According to minimum hourly of PET, LCZ 4 was the coldest LCZs during the night and early in the morning.

description: We have synthesized a new layered BiS$_{2}$-based compound SrFBiS2. This compound has similar structure to BiS2. It is built up by stacking up SrF layers and NaCl-type BiS2 layers alternatively along the c axis. Electric transport measurement indicates that SrFBiS2 is a semiconductor. Thermal transport measurement shows that SrFBiS2 has a small thermal conductivity and large Seebeck coefficient. First principle calculations are in agreement with experimental results and show that SrFBiS2 is very similar to LaOBiS2 which becomes superconductor with F doping. Therefore, SrFBiS2 may be a parent compound of new superconductors.

description: We present a new Riemann-Hilbert problem formalism for the initial value problem for the derivative nonlinear Schrödinger (DNLS) equation on the line. We show that the solution of this initial value problem can be obtained from the solution of some associated Riemann-Hilbert problem. This new Riemann-Hilbert problem for the DNLS equation will lead us to use nonlinear steepest-descent/stationary phase method or Deift-Zhou method to derive the long-time asymptotic for the DNLS equation on the line.

description: The recent Affum decision (judgment of 7 June 2016, case C-47/15) represents a new step forward in the case law of the Court of Justice on the detention of irregular migrants. The Court, departing from its previous case law in Achughbabian and El Dridi, adopts a rather pragmatic approach, preferring to stick to a procedural argument (to forbid detention in order to ensure a fast return procedure) rather than indulging in the assessment of the compliance of the detention with fundamental rights. This new approach seems to facilitate the cooperation between the EU level and national administrations. The Court seems, however, driven more by the need to secure the effectiveness of the return procedure rather than the rights of the individuals involved.

description: Evaluating the transfer of stresses from megathrust earthquakes to adjacent segments is fundamental to assess seismic hazard. Here, we use a 3D forward model as well as GPS and seismic data to investigate the transient deformation and Coulomb Failure Stresses (CFS) changes induced by the 2010 Maule earthquake in its northern segment, where the Mw 8.3 Illapel earthquake occurred in 2015. The 3D model incorporates the coseismically instantaneous, elastic response, and time-dependent afterslip and viscoelastic relaxation processes in the postseismic period. We particularly examine the impact of linear and power-law rheology on the resulting postseismic deformation and CFS changes that may have triggered the Illapel earthquake. At the Illapel hypocenter, our model results in CFS changes of ∼0.06 bar due to the coseismic and postseismic deformation, where the coseismic deformation accounts for ∼85% of the total CFS changes. This is below the assumed triggering threshold of 0.1 bar and, compared to the annual loading rate of the plate interface, represents a clock advance of approximately only 2 months. However, we find that sixteen events with Mw ≥ 5 in the southern region occurred in regions of CFS changes > 0.1 bar, indicating a potential triggering by the Maule event. Interestingly, while the power-law rheology model increases the positive coseismic CFS changes, the linear rheology reduces them. This is due to the opposite polarity of the postseismic displacements resulting from the rheology model choice. The power-law rheology model generates surface displacements that fit better to the GPS-observed landward displacement pattern.

description: The covariant density functional theory with the point-coupling interaction PC-PK1 is compared with new and accurate experimental masses in the element range from 50 to 91. The experimental data are from a mass measurement performed with the storage ring mass spectrometry at GSI [Chen et al., Nucl. Phys. A 882, 71 (2012)]. Although the microscopic theory contains only 11 parameters, it agrees well with the experimental data. The comparison is characterized by a rms deviation of 0.859 MeV. For even-even nuclei, the theory agrees within about 600 keV. Larger deviations are observed in this comparison for the odd-A and odd-odd nuclei. Improvements and possible reasons for the deviations are discussed in this contribution as well.

description: This spreadsheet contains the requirements and use cases collected by the OHSU Library Digital Collections Working Group (DCWG) for their evaluation and selection of a new digital repository platform. The first tab of the spreadsheet is the complete list of collected requirements framed as questions, and organized by category and priority. It includes columns for the best possible score a system could achieve and the score obtained by the Library's legacy system. Scores are weighted by priority. Additional tabs include various scorecards created to compare systems' evaluation performance against each other. Other institutions are invited to use this work as a guide to conducting their own systems evaluation and selection, but it must be stressed: these are the specific requirements of the OHSU Library, developed in response to a system that did not meet institutional needs. Other institutions may have different requirements and are strongly encouraged to determine what they are themselves, and are welcome to reach out to Marijane White at whimar@ohsu.edu to learn more about our selection process.
