description: In most galaxies, the fluxes of rotational H2 lines strongly correlate with star formation diagnostics (such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, PAH), suggesting that H2 emission from warm molecular gas is a minor byproduct of star formation. We analyse the optical properties of a sample of 309 nearby galaxies derived from a parent sample of 2,015 objects observed with the Spitzer Space Telescope. We find a correlation between the [OI]6300 emission-line flux and kinematics and the H2 S(3)9.665um/PAH11.3um. The [OI]6300 kinematics in Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) can not be explained only by gas motions due to the gravitational potential of their host galaxies, suggesting that AGN driven outflows are important to the observed kinematics. While H2 excess also correlates with the fluxes and kinematics of ionized gas (probed by [OIII]), the correlation with [OI] is much stronger, suggesting that H2 and [OI] emission probe the same phase or tightly coupled phases of the wind. We conclude that the excess of H2 emission seen in AGN is produced by shocks due to AGN driven outflows and in the same clouds that produce the [OI] emission. Our results provide an indirect detection of neutral and molecular winds and suggest a new way to select galaxies that likely host molecular outflows. Further ground- and space-based spatially resolved observations of different phases of the molecular gas (cold, warm and hot) are necessary to test our new selection method.

description: The Antarctic Muon and Neutrino Detector Array (AMANDA) began collecting data with ten strings in 1997. Results from the first year of operation are presented. Neutrinos coming through the Earth from the Northern Hemisphere are identified by secondary muons moving upward through the array. Cosmic rays in the atmosphere generate a background of downward moving muons, which are about 10^6 times more abundant than the upward moving muons. Over 130 days of exposure, we observed a total of about 300 neutrino events. In the same period, a background of 1.05*10^9 cosmic ray muon events was recorded. The observed neutrino flux is consistent with atmospheric neutrino predictions. Monte Carlo simulations indicate that 90% of these events lie in the energy range 66 GeV to 3.4 TeV. The observation of atmospheric neutrinos consistent with expectations establishes AMANDA-B10 as a working neutrino telescope.

description: Microbial communities are of considerable significance for biogeochemical processes, for the health of both animals and plants, and for biotechnological purposes. A key feature of microbial interactions is the exchange of nutrients between cells. Isotope labelling followed by analysis with secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) can identify nutrient fluxes and heterogeneity of substrate utilisation on a single cell level. Here we present a novel approach that combines SIMS experiments with mechanistic modelling to reveal otherwise inaccessible nutrient kinetics. The method is applied to study the onset of a synthetic mutualistic partnership between a vitamin B12-dependent mutant of the alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and the B12-producing, heterotrophic bacterium Mesorhizobium japonicum, which is supported by algal photosynthesis. Results suggest that an initial pool of fixed carbon delays the onset of mutualistic cross-feeding; significantly, our approach allows the first quantification of this expected delay. Our method is widely applicable to other microbial systems, and will contribute to furthering a mechanistic understanding of microbial interactions.

description: The fact that >99% of mitochondrial proteins are encoded by the nuclear genome and synthesised in the cytosol renders the process of mitochondrial protein import fundamental for normal organelle physiology. In addition to this, the nuclear genome comprises most of the proteins required for respiratory complex assembly and function. This means that without fully functional protein import, mitochondrial respiration will be defective, and the major cellular ATP source depleted. When mitochondrial protein import is impaired, a number of stress response pathways are activated in order to overcome the dysfunction and restore mitochondrial and cellular proteostasis. However, prolonged impaired mitochondrial protein import and subsequent defective respiratory chain function contributes to a number of diseases including primary mitochondrial diseases and neurodegeneration. This review focuses on how the processes of mitochondrial protein translocation and respiratory complex assembly and function are interlinked, how they are regulated, and their importance in health and disease.

description: Intersubband (ISB) transitions in semiconductor multi-quantum well (MQW) structures are promising candidates for the development of saturable absorbers at terahertz (THz) frequencies. Here, we exploit amplitude and phase-resolved two-dimensional (2D) THz spectroscopy on the sub-cycle time scale to observe directly the saturation dynamics and coherent control of ISB transitions in a metal-insulator MQW structure. Clear signatures of incoherent pump-probe and coherent four-wave mixing signals are recorded as a function of the peak electric field of the single-cycle THz pulses. All nonlinear signals reach a pronounced maximum for a THz electric field amplitude of 11 kV/cm and decrease for higher fields. We demonstrate that this behavior is a fingerprint of THz-driven carrier-wave Rabi flopping. A numerical solution of the Maxwell-Bloch equations reproduces our experimental findings quantitatively and traces the trajectory of the Bloch vector. This microscopic model allows us to design tailored MQW structures with optimized dynamical properties for saturable absorbers that could be used in future compact semiconductor-based single-cycle THz sources.

description: Modern Systems-on-Chip (SoCs) incorporate built-in self-test (BIST) modules deeply integrated into the device's intellectual property (IP) blocks. Such modules handle hardware faults and defects during device operation. As such, BIST results potentially reveal the internal structure and state of the device under test (DUT) and hence open attack vectors. So-called result compaction can overcome this vulnerability by hiding the BIST chain structure but introduces the issues of aliasing and invalid signatures. Software-BIST provides a flexible solution, that can tackle these issues, but suffers from limited observability and fault coverage. In this paper, we hence introduce a low-overhead software/hardware hybrid approach that overcomes the mentioned limitations. It relies on (a) keyed-hash message authentication code (KMAC) available on the SoC providing device-specific secure and valid signatures with zero aliasing and (b) the SoC processor for test scheduling hence increasing DUT availability. The proposed approach offers both on-chip- and remote-testing capabilities. We showcase a RISC-V-based SoC to demonstrate our approach, discussing system overhead and resulting compaction rates.

 Comments: This species was recorded from São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro states by Moreira and Ribeiro (2009). A careful examination of the specimens cited in that study, including male parameres, revealed that specimens from São Paulo were actually representatives of R. modesta, and that from Rio de Janeiro, R. hambletoni. The occurrence of R. sabrina in both states must be therefore unconsidered.

description: α-Synuclein (αS) is an intrinsically disordered and highly dynamic protein involved in dopamine release at presynaptic terminals. The abnormal aggregation of αS as mature fibrils into intraneuronal inclusion bodies is directly linked to Parkinson’s disease. Increasing experimental evidence suggests that soluble oligomers formed early during the aggregation process are the most cytotoxic forms of αS. This study investigated the uptake by neuronal cells of pathologically relevant αS oligomers and fibrils exploiting a range of conformation-sensitive antibodies, and the super-resolution stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy. We found that prefibrillar oligomers promptly penetrate neuronal membranes, thus resulting in cell dysfunction. By contrast, fibril docking to the phospholipid bilayer is accompanied by αS conformational changes with a progressive release of A11-reactive oligomers, which can enter into the neurons and trigger cell impairment. Our data provide important evidence on the role of αS fibrils as a source of harmful oligomers, which resemble the intermediate conformers formed de novo during aggregation, underling the dynamic and reversible nature of protein aggregates responsible for α-synucleinopathies.

description: The study of the stability of massive gaseous disks around a star in a non-isolated context is not a trivial issue and becomes a more complicated task for disks hosted by binary systems. The role of self-gravity is thought to be significant, whenever the ratio of the disk to the star mass is non-negligible. To tackle these issues we implemented, tested and applied our own Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics (SPH) algorithm. The code (named GaSPH) passed various quality tests and shows good performances, so to be reliably applied to the study of disks around stars accounting for self-gravity. This work aims to introduce and describe the algorithm, making some performance and stability tests. It constitutes the first part of a series of studies in which self-gravitating disks in binary systems will be let evolve in larger environments such as Open Clusters.

description: The scaling properties of the maximal height of a growing self-affine surface with a lateral extent $L$ are considered. In the late-time regime its value measured relative to the evolving average height scales like the roughness: $h^{*}_{L} \sim L^α$. For large values its distribution obeys $\log{P(h^{*}_{L})} \sim -A({h^{*}_{L}}/L^α)^{a}$, charaterized by the exponential-tail exponent $a$. In the early-time regime where the roughness grows as $t^β$, we find $h^{*}_{L} \sim t^β[\ln{L}-({β\over α})\ln{t} + C]^{1/b}$ where either $b=a$ or $b$ is the corresponding exponent of the velocity distribution. These properties are derived from scaling and extreme-values arguments. They are corroborated by numerical simulations and supported by exact results for surfaces in 1D with the asymptotic behavior of a Brownian path.

description: The well-being of children has received increasing attention in recent years. Nevertheless, we lack adequate brief self-report tools that enable us to consider young children’s well-being in policy evaluations and educational research. This study describes the adaptation and first validation of the Swedish version of How I Feel About My School (HIFAMS), a subjective well-being questionnaire suitable for children aged 4 to 12 years, which was originally developed in the United Kingdom (UK). Descriptive statistics with analysis of psychometric properties and confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) are based on the perceived well-being of 228 children in preschool and school aged 5 to 8 years old. The CFA endorsed a good fit to a one-factor model, and the scale showed moderate internal consistency (rα = 0.63). The results are largely in line with the findings of the original HIFAMS. We conclude that the Swedish version can be applied in early preschool/school settings and could provide first-hand information about children’s well-being from the first years of education until elementary school grades. Practitioners in early education settings might benefit from HIFAMS assessments when seeking to understand children’s current well-being to provide support to children with special educational needs or children at risk for mental health issues. Researchers could use the HIFAMS to standardize child well-being evaluations in policy evaluations and interventional studies.

description: Relativistic quasiparticles emerging from band degeneracies in crystals play crucial roles in the transport and topological properties of materials and metamaterials. Quasiparticles are commonly described by Hermitian Hamiltonians, with non-Hermiticity usually considered detrimental. In this work, we show that such an assumption of Hermiticity can be lifted to bring quasiparticles into non-Hermitian regime. We propose a concrete lattice model containing two Dirac cones with valley-dependent lifetimes. The lifetime contrast enables an ultra-strong valley selection rule: only one valley can survive in the long-time limit regardless of the excitation, lattice shape and other details. This property leads to an effective parity anomaly with a single Dirac cone and offers a simple way to generate vortex states. Additionally, extending non-Hermitian features to boundaries generates valley kink states with valley-locked lifetimes, making them effectively unidirectional and more resistant against inter-valley scattering. All these phenomena are experimentally demonstrated in a non-Hermitian electric circuit lattice.

description: Stroke is a leading cause of death and long-term disability worldwide. Current therapeutic options are limited in terms of their time for implementation and efficacy in promoting recovery. Cell transplantation has been shown to have promise in several animal models however significant challenges remain, including the optimal source of cells to promote neural repair. Here, we report on the use of a population of human ESC derived, cortically specified, neuroepithelial precursor cells (cNEPs) that are neurally restricted in their lineage potential. CNEPs have the potential to give rise to mature neural cell types following transplantation, including neurons, astrocytes and oligodendrocytes. With a view towards translation, we sought to determine whether this human cell source was effective in promoting improved functional outcomes following stroke. Undifferentiated cNEPs were transplanted in a pre-clinical endothelin-1 (ET-1) model of ischemic motor cortical stroke in immunocompromised SCID-beige mice and cellular and functional outcomes were assessed. We demonstrate that cNEP transplantation in the acute phase (4 days post-stroke) improves motor function as early as 20 days post-stroke, compared to stroke-injured, non-transplanted mice. At the time of recovery, a small fraction (<6%) of the transplanted cNEPs are observed within the stroke injury site. The surviving cells expressed the immature neuronal marker, doublecortin, with no differentiation into mature neural phenotypes. At longer survival times (40 days), the majority of recovered, transplanted mice had a complete absence of surviving cNEPS. Hence, human cNEPs grafted at early times post-stroke support the observed functional recovery following ET-1 stroke but their persistence is not required, thereby supporting a by-stander effect rather than cell replacement.

description: Rapid rotation is a fundamental characteristic of classical Be stars and a crucial property allowing for the formation of their circumstellar disks. Past evolution in a mass and angular momentum transferring binary system offers a plausible solution to how Be stars attained their fast rotation. Although the subdwarf remnants of mass donors in such systems should exist in abundance, only a few have been confirmed due to tight observational constraints. An indirect method of detecting otherwise hidden companions is offered by their effect on the outer parts of Be star disks, which are expected to be disrupted or truncated. In the context of the IR and radio continuum excess radiation originating in the disk, the disk truncation can be revealed by a turndown in the spectral energy distribution due to reduced radio flux levels. In this work we search for signs of spectral turndown in a sample of 57 classical Be stars with radio data, which include new data for 23 stars and the longest wavelength detections so far ($λ\approx$ 10\,cm) for 2 stars. We confidently detect the turndown for all 26 stars with sufficient data coverage (20 of which are not known to have close binary companions). For the remaining 31 stars, data are inconclusive as to whether the turndown is present or not. The analysis suggests that many if not all Be stars have close companions influencing their outer disks. If confirmed to be subdwarf companions, the mass transfer spin-up scenario might explain the existence of the vast majority of classical Be stars.

description: We propose to use T-odd momentum correlations as physical observables to study T violation in $B\to K^{*}l^{+}l^{-} (l=e,μ)$ decays. We show that these observables are zero in the standard model but sizable at the level of 10% in the supersymmetric model. These large T violating effects are measurable at the B-factories in KEK and SLAC and future hadron colliders. We also point out that the T violating effects are insensitive to nonperturbative QCD contributions.

description: We present an estimation of the point source (PS) catalogue that could be extracted from the forthcoming ESA Planck mission data. We have applied the Spherical Mexican Hat Wavelet (SMHW) to simulated all-sky maps that include CMB, Galactic emission (thermal dust, free-free and synchrotron), thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich effect and PS emission, as well as instrumental white noise. This work is an extension of the one presented in Vielva et al. (2001a). We have developed an algorithm focused on a fast local optimal scale determination, that is crucial to achieve a PS catalogue with a large number of detections and a low flux limit. An important effort has been also done to reduce the CPU time processor for spherical harmonic transformation, in order to perform the PS detection in a reasonable time. The presented algorithm is able to provide a PS catalogue above fluxes: 0.48 Jy (857 GHz), 0.49 Jy (545 GHz), 0.18 Jy (353 GHz), 0.12 Jy (217 GHz), 0.13 Jy (143 GHz), 0.16 Jy (100 GHz HFI), 0.19 Jy (100 GHz LFI), 0.24 Jy (70 GHz), 0.25 Jy (44 GHz) and 0.23 Jy (30 GHz). We detect around 27700 PS at the highest frequency Planck channel and 2900 at the 30 GHz one. The completeness level are: 70% (857 GHz), 75% (545 GHz), 70% (353 GHz), 80% (217 GHz), 90% (143 GHz), 85% (100 GHz HFI), 80% (100 GHz LFI), 80% (70 GHz), 85% (44 GHz) and 80% (30 GHz). In addition, we can find several PS at different channels, allowing the study of the spectral behaviour and the physical processes acting on them. We also present the basic procedure to apply the method in maps convolved with asymmetric beams. The algorithm takes ~ 72 hours for the most CPU time demanding channel (857 GHz) in a Compaq HPC320 (Alpha EV68 1 GHz processor) and requires 4 GB of RAM memory.

VtaA marker
LS-PCR

description: Abstract: Glaesserella parasuis strains were characterized by serotyping PCR, vtaA virulence marker Leader Sequence (LS)-PCR, clinical significance, and geographic region. Overall, the serovars 4, 5/12, 7, 1, and 13 were the most commonly detected. Serovars of greatest clinical relevance were systemic isolates that had a higher probability of being serovar 5/12, 13, or 7. In comparison, pulmonary isolates had a higher likelihood of being serovars 2, 4, 7, or 14. Serovars 5/12 and 13 have previously been considered disease-associated, but this study agrees with other recent studies showing that serovar 7 is indeed associated with systemic G. parasuis disease. Serovar 4 strains illustrated how isolates can have varying degrees of virulence and be obtained from pulmonary, systemic, or nasal sites. Serovars 8, 9, 15, and 10 were predominantly obtained from nasal samples, which indicates a limited clinical significance of these serovars. Additionally, most internal G. parasuis isolates were classified as virulent by LS-PCR and were disease-associated isolates, including serovars 1, 2, 4, 5/12, 7, 13, and 14. Isolates from the nasal cavity, including serovars 6, 9, 10, 11, and 15, were classified as non-virulent by LS-PCR. In conclusion, the distribution of G. parasuis serovars remains constant, with few serovars representing most of the strains isolated from affected pigs. Moreover, it was confirmed that the LS-PCR can be used for G. parasuis virulence prediction of field strains worldwide.

description: Convolution Neural Network (ConvNet) offers a high potential to generalize input data. It has been widely used in many application areas, such as visual imagery, where comprehensive learning datasets are available and a ConvNet model can be well trained and perform the required function effectively. ConvNet can also be applied to network intrusion detection. However, the currently available datasets related to the network intrusion are often inadequate, which makes the ConvNet learning deficient, hence the trained model is not competent in detecting unknown intrusions. In this paper, we propose a ConvNet model using transfer learning for network intrusion detection. The model consists of two concatenated ConvNets and is built on a two-stage learning process: learning a base dataset and transferring the learned knowledge to the learning of the target dataset. Our experiments on the NSL-KDD dataset show that the proposed model can improve the detection accuracy not only on the test dataset containing mostly known attacks (KDDTest+) but also on the test dataset featuring many novel attacks (KDDTest-21) -- about 2.68\% improvement on KDDTest+ and 22.02\% on KDDTest-21 can be achieved, as compared to the traditional ConvNet model.

The Puzzle of the Bottom Quark Production Cross Section

description: The production rate of bottom quarks at hadron colliders exceeds the expectations of next-to-leading order perturbative quantum chromodynamics. An additional contribution from pair-production of light gluinos, of mass 12 to 16 GeV, with two-body decays into bottom quarks and light bottom squarks, yields a differential cross section for bottom quarks in better agreement with data. The masses of the gluino and bottom squark are restricted further by the ratio of like-sign to opposite-sign leptons at hadron colliders. Restrictions on this scenario from other data are summarized, and predictions are made for other processes such as Upsilon decay into a pair of bottom squarks.

description: While nearly instantaneous commodity futures price information provides price forecasts for national markets, many market participants are interested in forecasts of local cash prices. Expected basis estimates are often used to convert futures prices into local price forecasts. This study considers basis patterns in the northern U.S. hard red spring and hard red winter wheat markets. Using data on basis values across 215 grain-handling facilities, we empirically test the forecasting capabilities of numerous basis models. Contrary to basis models developed for other U.S. regions, we show that recent futures prices, protein content, and harvest information are more important for accurate basis forecasts than historical basis averages. The preferred basis models are used to develop an automated web-based basis forecasting tool, available at http : //wheatbasis.montana.edu.

description: Visibility is a fundamental concept in computational geometry, with numerous applications in surveillance, robotics, and games. This software paper presents TřiVis, a C++ library developed by the authors for computing numerous visibility-related queries in highly complex polygonal environments. Adapting the triangular expansion algorithm, TřiVis stands out as a versatile, high-performance, more reliable and easy-to-use alternative to current solutions that is also free of heavy dependencies. Through evaluation on a challenging dataset, TřiVis has been benchmarked against existing visibility libraries. The results demonstrate that TřiVis outperforms the competing solutions by at least an order of magnitude in query times, while exhibiting more reliable runtime behavior. TřiVis is freely available for private, research, and institutional use at https://github.com/janmikulacz/trivis.

Osculating and neighbour-avoiding polygons on the square lattice

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

description: We study two simple modifications of self-avoiding polygons. Osculating polygons are a super-set in which we allow the perimeter of the polygon to touch at a vertex. Neighbour-avoiding polygons are only allowed to have nearest neighbour vertices provided these are joined by the associated edge and thus form a sub-set of self-avoiding polygons. We use the finite lattice method to count the number of osculating polygons and neighbour-avoiding polygons on the square lattice. We also calculate their radius of gyration and the first area-weighted moment. Analysis of the series confirms exact predictions for the critical exponents and the universality of various amplitude combinations. For both cases we have found exact solutions for the number of convex and almost-convex polygons.

description: Quasars at early redshifts ($z > 6$) with companion galaxies offer unique insights into the growth and evolution of the first supermassive black holes. Here, we report on a 150 ks Chandra observation of PSO J308.0416$-$21.2339, a $z=6.23$ quasar with a merging companion galaxy identified in [C II] and rest-frame UV emission. With $72.3^{+9.6}_{-8.6}$ net counts, we find that PSO J308.0416$-$21.2339 is powerful ($L_X = 2.31^{+1.14}_{-0.76} \times 10^{45}\ \textrm{erg}\,\textrm{s}^{-1}\,\textrm{cm}^{-2}$ in rest-frame $2.0-10.0$ keV) yet soft (spectral power-law index $Γ=2.39^{+0.37}_{-0.36}$ and optical-to-X-ray slope $α_{\rm OX} = -1.41 \pm 0.11$). In addition, we detect three hard-energy photons $2.''0$ to the west of the main quasar, cospatial with the brightest UV emission of the merging companion. As no soft-energy photons are detected in the same area, this is potentially indicative of a highly-obscured source. With conservative assumptions, and accounting for both background fluctuations and the extended wings of the quasar's emission, these photons only have a probability $P=0.021$ of happening by chance. If confirmed by deeper observations, this system is the first high redshift quasar and companion individually detected in X-rays and is likely a dual AGN.
