Die Expansion der Shanghaier Organisation für Zusammenarbeit SOZ

description: Die Shanghaier Organisation für Zusammenarbeit SOZ (engl. Shanghai Cooperation Organization SCO) mit Sitz in Peking wurde 2001 als Nachfolger der Shanghai Five-Gruppe aus dem Jahr 1996 gegründet. Die SOZ wurde schrittweise um neue Mitgliedsstaaten erweitert und 2022/23 erhielten Saudi-Arabien, Katar und Ägypten den Status von Dialogpartnern; die Vereinigten Arabischen Emirate, Bahrain und Kuwait könnten bald folgen. Die SOZ ist eine zwischenstaatliche Organisation, die auf dem als „Shanghai Spirit“ formulierten Prinzip der Nichteinmischung in die inneren Angelegenheiten souveräner Staaten basiert. Die SOZ verfügt über eine institutionelle Struktur mit einem Sekretariat, einer regionalen Anti-Terror-Struktur (RATS, Taschkent), regelmäßigen Treffen, multinationalen Militärübungen (Peace Mission) und unterstützt die wirtschaftliche Zusammenarbeit zwischen den Mitgliedstaaten. Die SOZ ist ein alternatives Weltordnungs- (Global-Governance)-Modell zum Bündnismodell des Westens (NATO, EU, Quad) und umfasst mittlerweile den größten Teil der eurasischen Landmasse und etwa 40% der Weltbevölkerung, ist aber kein Militärbündnis und strebt nicht danach, die Mitgliedstaaten in einen supranationalen Rahmen einzubinden. Der anfängliche Fokus auf Sicherheit verlagerte sich später auf wirtschaftliche Fragen und nun auch auf die Energiepolitik. Da verschiedene Mitgliedstaaten ihre eigene geopolitische Agenda haben (z.B. China, Russland, Indien, Iran usw.), bezweifeln westliche Analysten manchmal die Relevanz der SOZ, aber sie ermöglicht ihren Mitgliedstaaten eine Diversifizierung und einen Ausgleich ihrer sicherheitspolitischen, wirtschaftlichen und diplomatischen Aktivitäten und erhalten dadurch mehr politische Handlungsfreiheit. Die SOZ-Aktivitäten sind gut auf Chinas „Freundeskreis“- und Partnerschaftskonzept der Außenpolitik abgestimmt, und viele SOZ-Staaten haben eine bilaterale Partnerschaft mit China, z.B. Saudi-Arabien und Iran. Vor diesem Hintergrund ist das Zusammentreffen der SOZ-Erweiterung und des trilateralen Abkommens von 2023 zwischen China, Saudi-Arabien und dem Iran zur Wiederherstellung der Saudi-iranischen Beziehungen nicht überraschend. Auch die Vereinigten Arabischen Emirate haben gute Beziehungen zu China und stellen nun auch ihre Beziehungen zum Iran wieder her. Zusammenfassend ist die aktuelle SOZ-Erweiterung ein weiterer Schritt hin zu einer multipolaren Weltordnung und fordert die Sicherheitsarchitektur der Vereinigten Staaten für den Nahen Osten und Nordafrika heraus.

description: Resonant photonuclear isotope detection (RPID) is a nondestructive detection/assay of nuclear isotopes by measuring gamma rays following photonuclear reaction products. Medium-energy wideband photons of 12-16 MeV are used for the photonuclear reactions and gamma rays characteristic of the reaction products are measured by means of high-sensitivity Ge detectors. Impurities of stable and radioactive isotopes of the orders of micro-nano gr and ppm-ppb are investigated. RPID is used to study nuclear isotopes of astronuclear and particle physics interests and those of geological and historical interests. It is used to identify radioactive isotopes of fission products as well.

description: The Buneman instability occurring when an electron population is drifting with respect to the ions is analyzed in the quantum linear and nonlinear regimes. The one-dimensional low-frequency and collisional model of Shokri and Niknam [Phys. Plasmas, v. 12, p. 062110 (2005)] is revisited introducing the Bohm potential term in the momentum equation. The linear regime is investigated analytically, and quantum effects result in a reduction of the instability. The nonlinear regime is then assessed both numerically and analytically, and pure quantum density oscillations are found to appear during the late evolution of the instability.

description: The body defends itself against pathogens through the innate and adaptive immune systems. Immune cells, particularly T cells, interact with antigens to trigger immune responses. CD8+ T cells directly eliminate infected cells, while CD4+ T cells assist in immune cell activation. HIV targets immune cells, weakening the immune system and causing AIDS. "HIV controllers" have superior CD8+ T cell activity and cytolytic CD4+ T cell responses. SARS-CoV-2 infection also affects the immune system, leading to COVID-19. Similarities between HIV and SARS-CoV-2 include HLAs linked to stronger T cell responses. Understanding these mechanisms is crucial for HIV and SARS-CoV-2 research.

description: Novel contributions to the total inclusive cross section for Higgs-Strahlung in the Standard Model at hadron colliders are evaluated. Although formally of order $α_s^2$, they have not been taken into account in previous NNLO predictions. The terms under consideration are induced by Higgs radiation off top-quark loops and thus proportional to the top-quark Yukawa coupling. At the Tevatron, their effects to HW production are below 1% in the relevant Higgs mass range, while for HZ production, we find corrections between about 1% and 2%. At the LHC, the contribution of the newly evaluated terms to the cross section is typically of the order of 1%-3%. Based on these results, we provide updated predictions for the total inclusive Higgs-Strahlung cross section at the Tevatron and the LHC.

description: In this work, we investigate conditions under which unions of ascending chains of modules which are isomorphic to direct sums of ideals of an integral domain are again isomorphic to direct sums of ideals. We obtain generalizations of the Pontryagin-Hill theorems for modules which are direct sums of ideals of h-local Prüfer domains. Particularly, we prove that a torsion-free module over a Dedekind domain with a countable number of maximal ideals is isomorphic to a direct sum of ideals if it is the union of a countable ascending chain of pure submodules which are isomorphic to direct sums of ideals.

description: In a recent paper we proposed and compared various approaches to compute the ground state and dynamics of the Schrödinger--Poisson--Slater (SPS) system for general external potential and initial condition, concluding that the methods based on sine pseudospectral discretization in space are the best candidates. This note is concerned with the case that the external potential and initial condition are spherically symmetric. For the SPS system with spherical symmetry, via applying a proper change of variables into the reduced quasi-1D model we simplify the methods proposed for the general 3D case such that both the memory and computational load are significantly reduced.

description: The open circuit voltage Voc and the corresponding charge carrier density were measured in dependence of temperature and illumination intensity by current-voltage and charge extraction measurements for P3HT:PCBM and P3HT:bisPCBM solar cells. At lower temperatures a saturation of Voc was observed which can be explained by energetic barriers at the contacts (metal-insulator-metal model). Such injection barriers can also influence Voc at room temperature and limit the performance of the working solar cell, as was assured by macroscopic device simulations on temperature-dependent IV characteristics. However, under most conditions - room temperature and low barriers - Voc is given by the effective bandgap.

description: In the context of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, there is one feature of the natural landscape that serves as potential grounds for regional collaboration: water. Its scarcity has plagued generations of Israeli and Palestinian users, its significance has inspired a body of cultural products, its necessity has ensured advancements in infrastructure and technology, and its control has often determined who may cultivate the land. This paper examines each of these defined areas before focusing on two organizations of water diplomacy, EcoPeace Middle East and the Arava Institute for Environmental Studies. EcoPeace employs a bottom-up approach to empower Israelis and Palestinians to demand solutions to local water issues, and a top-down approach focused on the publication of policy briefs. The Arava Institute addresses environmental challenges through the collaboration of riparian communities, and offers Israelis, Palestinians, Jordanians and other international participants the opportunity to conduct research at Kibbutz Ketura on the Israeli side of the Arava Valley. These organizations promote collaboration on water issues in the Jordan River basin that will affect generations of water users. However, this thesis will encourage both organizations to explicitly address the contrasting water histories of Israelis and Palestinians, as reflected in Israeli and Palestinian literature and culture, in order to effectively foster collaboration in the long-term future.

description: The development of new classes of antibiotics for clinical use is of great importance due to the ever-increasing threat of antimicrobial resistance. This includes peptide antibiotics, which are enzymatically produced by non-ribosomal peptide synthases. Biotechnological approaches to diversify the products of this biosynthetic pathway have great potential for future antibiotic development. In my PhD, chemical biology tools were developed to provide insight into nonribosomal peptide (NRP) biosynthesis, with the aim of enabling future antibiotic diversification. Ultimately, these results represent major progress toward the goal of engineering NRP biosynthesis to produce potent, novel antimicrobial peptides for clinical use.

description: The Quadrupole Resonator, designed to measure the surface resistance of superconducting samples at 400 MHz has been refurbished. The accuracy of its RF-DC compensation measurement technique is tested by an independent method. It is shown that the device enables also measurements at 800 and 1200 MHz and is capable to probe the critical RF magnetic field. The electric and magnetic field configuration of the Quadrupole Resonator are dependent on the excited mode. It is shown how this can be used to distinguish between electric and magnetic losses.

description: In this paper, we present a new semantics to check file safety of multithreaded programs. A file-safe program is one that reaches a final configuration under the proposed semantics. We extend the While language with file operations and multi-threading commands, and call the new language whilef. This paper shows that the file safety is an un-decidable property for whilef. The file safety becomes a decidable property in a special case shown in this paper. The case happens when users provide pointer information. If the file is safe we call it a strongly safe file program. We modify the syntax and the semantic of the language and called it SafeWhilef.

description: Polycomb repressive complex 2 (PRC2) is a protein complex responsible for ensuring certain genes are “switched off” at crucial points of human development when their product is not needed. There are many biological molecules that can regulate PRC2 to ensure it appropriately performs its role, such as DNA, RNA, and specific “accessory” proteins of PRC2. Dysregulation of PRC2 can lead to disease states such as cancer and certain developmental syndromes. During my PhD, I aimed to improve our understanding of how binding with RNA and DNA can regulate PRC2, specifically when PRC2 is with its accessory proteins AEBP2 and JARID2.

description: This work deals with the intrinsic and extrinsic properties of the graphene layers inside the graphite structure, in particular the influence of defects and interfaces. We discuss the evidence for ballistic transport found in mesoscopic graphite samples and the possibility to obtain the intrinsic carrier density of graphite, without the need of free parameters or arbitrary assumptions. The influence of internal interfaces on the transport properties of bulk graphite is described in detail. We show that in specially prepared multigraphene samples the transport properties show clear signs for the existence of granular superconductivity within the graphite interfaces. We argue that the superconducting-insulator or metal-insulator transition (MIT) reported in the literature for bulk graphite is not intrinsic of the graphite structure but it is due to the influence of these interfaces. Current-Voltage characteristics curves reveal Josephson-like behavior at the interfaces with superconducting critical temperatures above 150K.

Year: 2023
Subjects: classificationCode: 320404
subject: Cellular immunology

description: Regulatory T (Treg) cells are indispensable for maintaining immune homeostasis and peripheral tolerance but are a barrier to anti-tumour immunity. Therefore, the manipulation of Treg cells could provide therapeutic benefits. Epigenetic regulation is essential for the Treg cell program, yet the exact involvement of many epigenetic modifiers remains unclear. This thesis has examined the role of two epigenetic modifiers, G9a and DOT1L, in Treg cell biology. I have shown that G9a and DOT1L have contrasting roles in controlling Treg cell stability and function, potentially serving as novel therapeutic targets for promoting or destabilising Treg cells, depending on the disease context.

description: My doctoral research investigated the impact of HAMSAB dietary supplementation on Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) immunotherapy and Kidney Fibrosis by modifying the gut microbiota and releasing specific microbial metabolites, including short-chain fatty acids (SCFAs). The study found that the HAMSAB diet's anti-inflammatory properties enhance the effects of anti-CD3 immunotherapy and protect against the development of T1D by regulating the gut microbiota and promoting immunoregulation. Additionally, the study highlighted the potential benefits of SCFAs in improving kidney function and mitigating inflammation in kidney disease, suggesting that SCFA-based diets could be a promising therapeutic approach for preventing CKD progression. These findings offer a widely acceptable, non-invasive, and highly accessible method for treating individuals with newly diagnosed or high-risk inflammatory and autoimmune diseases.

description: A construction of general solutions of the \hbar-dependent Toda hierarchy is presented. The construction is based on a Riemann-Hilbert problem for the pairs (L,M) and (\bar L,\bar M) of Lax and Orlov-Schulman operators. This Riemann-Hilbert problem is translated to the language of the dressing operators W and \bar W. The dressing operators are set in an exponential form as W = e^{X/\hbar} and \bar W = e^{ϕ/\hbar}e^{\bar X/\hbar}, and the auxiliary operators X,\bar X and the function ϕare assumed to have \hbar-expansions X = X_0 + \hbar X_1 + ..., \bar X = \bar X_0 + \hbar\bar X_1 + ... and ϕ= ϕ_0 + \hbarϕ_1 + .... The coefficients of these expansions turn out to satisfy a set of recursion relations. X,\bar X and ϕare recursively determined by these relations. Moreover, the associated wave functions are shown to have the WKB form Ψ= e^{S/\hbar} and \barΨ= e^{\bar S/\hbar}, which leads to an \hbar-expansion of the logarithm of the tau function.

Through a review of current e-maintenance conceptual approaches and realizations, this paper aims to reconsider the predominance of ICT within e-maintenance projects and literature. The review brings to light the importance of intelligence as a fundamental dimension of e-maintenance that is to be led in a holistic predefined manner rather than isolated efforts within ICT driven approaches. As a contribution towards an intelligence based e-maintenance conceptual framework, a proposal is outlined in this paper to model e-maintenance system as an intelligent system. The proposed frame is based on CogAff architecture for intelligent agents. Within the proposed frame, more importance was reserved to the environment that the system is to be continuously aware of: Plant Environment, Internal and External Enterprise Environment and Human Environment. In addition to the abilities required for internal coherent behavior of the system, requirements for maintenance activities support are also mapped within the same frame according to corresponding levels of management. A case study was detailed in this paper sustaining the applicability of the proposal in relation to the classification of existing e-maintenance platforms. However, more work is needed to enhance exhaustiveness of the frame to serve as a comparison tool of existing e-maintenance systems. At the conceptual level, our future work is to use the proposed frame in an e-maintenance project.

description: We analyze properties of excitations due to voltage pulses applied to a 1D noninteracting electron gas, assuming that the integral of the voltage over time is equal to the unit of flux. We show that the average charge transfer due to such pulses does not depend on the pulse shape. For pulses with a Lorentzian profile, we prove the single-particle nature of the electron and the hole excitations.

title: Analysis and Quality Assessment of LEO GPS Data for Geophysical and Ionospheric Applications

description: During the last few years, an ever-increasing fleet of Low Earth Orbiting (LEO) satellites for scientific purposes became operative. Most of these satellites carry dual-frequency Global Positioning System (GPS) receivers. The highly accurate dual-frequency observations allow mitigating the ionospheric signal contribution to estimate precise orbits and eventually the earth's gravity field. However, when comparing the obtained GPS only gravity fields derived from Swarm to gravity field solutions obtained by the dedicated gravity field mission GRACE, systematic band-shaped differences are visible in the vicinity of the geomagnetic equator.

In this work, an empirical approach for the appropriate weighting of GPS observations is derived to mitigate these ionospheric artifacts. The cause of the
artifacts is further analyzed by investigating the loop filter implementation. A tracking loop-specific transfer function is derived and used to invert the loop filter response to derive corrections for the GPS phase observations. Both methods are evaluated to achieve the best possible Swarm GPS only gravity field. Vice versa, the collected GPS observations from the LEO precise orbit determination antenna can also be used to gain insight into the topside ionosphere and plasmasphere. A three-dimensional model approach is developed using a fleet of LEO satellites to estimate a model of the electron density distribution between LEO and GPS satellites.

Both aspects represent possibilities of using GPS/GNSS on-board of LEO satellites for geophysical applications.

description: The experimental characterization of the spatial and temporal coherence properties of the free-electron laser in Hamburg (FLASH) at a wavelength of 8.0 nm is presented. Double pinhole diffraction patterns of single femtosecond pulses focused to a size of about 10 microns by 10 microns were measured. A transverse coherence length of 6.2 microns in the horizontal and 8.7 microns in the vertical direction was determined from the most coherent pulses. Using a split and delay unit the coherence time of the pulses produced in the same operation conditions of FLASH was measured to be 1.75 fs. From our experiment we estimated the degeneracy parameter of the FLASH beam to be on the order of $10^{10}$ to $10^{11}$, which exceeds the values of this parameter at any other source in the same energy range by many orders of magnitude.

description: This volume contains the proceedings of the Ninth Workshop on Quantitative Aspects of Programming Languages (QAPL 2011), held in Saarbrucken, Germany, April 1--3, 2011. QAPL 2011 is a satellite event of the European Joint Conferences on Theory and Practice of Software (ETAPS 2011). The workshop theme is on quantitative aspects of computation. These aspects are related to the use of physical quantities (storage space, time, bandwidth, etc.) as well as mathematical quantities (e.g. probability and measures for reliability, security and trust), and play an important (sometimes essential) role in characterising the behavior and determining the properties of systems. Such quantities are central to the definition of both the model of systems (architecture, language design, semantics) and the methodologies and tools for the analysis and verification of the systems properties. The aim of this workshop is to discuss the explicit use of quantitative information such as time and probabilities either directly in the model or as a tool for the analysis of systems.
Evaluating alternatives to peat based growing substrates for use in ornamental horticulture
Creators: name: Haines, Olivia
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2023

description: The horticultural industry urgently needs alternatives to peat based growing media as harvesting peat depletes a huge carbon sink. Although peat is an incredibly effective growing medium, the environmental costs are incredibly concerning. Factorial experiments involving spring barley (Hordeum vulgare), rye (secale cereale), dianthus (dianthus plumaris) and petunia (petunia F1 prism sunshine) were carried out in four substrates: a high peat content potting and bedding mix, a peat and wood fibre mix, a peat free coir and wood mix, and a peat free sand and topsoil mix. The research aims to address the following hypotheses: (I)The addition of surfactants improves plant growth in potted ornamental species; (II) Ornamental species grown in peat reduced and peat free media produce a lesser biomass and overall plant health than those grown in a peat-based medium; (III) Peat reduced and peat free substrates are not able to sustain potted plants and tolerate drought stress under a deficit irrigation regime to the same extent as peat-based substrates. The addition of surfactants increased above ground dry biomass in the substrates while the high peat content mix produced the greatest biomass compared to the other substrates in the majority of instances. However, there were few instances in which the peat and wood fibre mix produced plants with a greater biomass. It was determined through measurements of leaf water potential, stomatal conductance and biomass measurements that the plants grown in the high peat content substrate performed better than those grown in other substrates under deficit irrigated conditions.
Structure-Function Studies on Chemokine Recognition and Selectively by Tick Evasins

subject: Medical biochemistry - proteins and peptides (incl. medical proteomics)

description: Evasins, secreted in tick saliva prevent inflammation by neutralising chemokine functions, therefore, are considered as promising biologicals for the novel anti-inflammatory therapeutics. Natural evasins need to be repurposed to tailor their target towards specific chemokine(s). My PhD project discovered potential lead evasin candidates for future engineering. I explored the structural mechanism of chemokine recognition selectivity by evasins. Structural guided engineering revealed that co-operativity between structural components is essential for chemokine selectivity. Considering the complexity in structure-function relationship, I established a novel system for the in vitro evolution and future engineering to develop evasins as specific chemokine(s) targeted therapeutics.

description: Proteins found in tick saliva (evasins) can block the activity of human inflammatory proteins (chemokines) and could therefore could be used to treat human inflammatory diseases. This research revealed a new class of tick anti-inflammatory proteins called “class A3 evasins”. Class A3 evasins exhibit broad-spectrum activity against a variety of human chemokines. Structural analysis revealed the key molecular features giving rise to this activity and enabled rational modification of the chemokine-binding properties. Thus, structure-guided engineering of class A3 evasins serves as an excellent approach for development of new diagnostic and therapeutic agents

Nonequilibrium transport properties of a double quantum dot in the Kondo regime

description: We analyze the nonequilibrium transport properties of a parallel double quantum dot in terms of its full counting statistics (FCS). The parameters of the setup are assumed to be such that both subsystems are driven into the Kondo regime. After a series of transformations the Hamiltonian is then mapped onto a Majorana resonant level model, which effectively describes the Toulouse point of the respective double impurity two-terminal Kondo model. Its FCS is then obtained at arbitrary constellation of voltage, temperature, and local magnetic fields. We identify two different transport processes corresponding to single electron tunneling as well as an electron pair process and give the respective effective transport coefficients. In the most universal linear response regime the FCS turns out to be of a binomial shape with an effective transmission coefficient. Furthermore, we find a complete transport suppression (antiresonance) at a certain parameter constellation, which is similar to the one found in the noninteracting quantum dots. By an explicit expansion around the Toulouse point we show that the antiresonance is universal and should be observable in the generic Kondo dot setup. We discuss experimental implications of our predictions as well as possible routes for generalizations of our approach.

description: Autoimmune diseases place a large health burden on our society with many people either suffering from an autoimmune disease have family members or friends who are. Autoimmune diseases arise from the body reacting to and attacking itself. My PhD has been focused on auto immune diseases such as multiple sclerosis, cancer and psoriasis and understanding the role fat molecules play in the establishment of these diseases. In understanding the how fats are involved in the establishment of autoimmune diseases we can begin to develop better therapeutics to either aid in the treatment of these diseases or even prevent their development.
Decays of degeneracies in PT-symmetric ring-shaped lattices

description: Non-Hermitian ring-shaped discrete lattices share the appeal with their more popular linear predecessors. Their dynamics controlled by the nearest-neighbor interaction is equally phenomenologically interesting. In comparison, the innovative nontriviality of their topology may be expected to lead to new spectral effects. Some of them are studied here via solvable examples. Main attention is paid to the perturbation-caused removals of spectral degeneracy at exceptional points.
