description: We present a 1:50,000 geomorphological map of the Talacasto river alluvial fan (93 km2), located in the Central Andean Precordillera of Argentina. The aim of this map is to identify and classify dynamic and potentially destructive geomorphological processes such as gully erosion, headward erosion, concentrated erosion, laminar erosion and similar features that are present in an alluvial fan, so as to identify unstable sectors for public infrastructure. This map is the result of combining remote sensing data, aerial photographs analysis and fieldwork. Landforms and active geomorphological processes are identified, classified and illustrated for this Quaternary alluvial fan. Four Quaternary landscape subunits were classified, taking into account morphogenetic characteristics and erosional processes such as: (1) Exhumed and erosional landforms inducted by neotectonic activity; (2) Alluvial landforms; (3) Polygenetic landforms covered in glacis; and (4) Playa lake landforms. The presence of desert pavements and salt-hardened subsoil formations contributes to the generation and transmission of surface runoff during summer heavy rains, causing alluvial hazards and damages in routes and roads.

description: Of all the light elements, lithium is the most sensitive indicator of stellar evolution. This review discusses current data on the abundance of lithium in the atmospheres of A-, F-, G-, and K-stars of different types, as well as the consistency of these data with theoretical predictions. The variety of observed Li abundances is illustrated by the following objects in different stages of evolution: 1) Old stars in the galactic halo, which have a lithium abundance log e(Li)=2.2 (the "lithium plateau") that appears to be 0.5 dex lower than the primordial abundance predicted by cosmological models. 2) Young stars in the galactic disk, which have been used to estimate the contemporary initial lithium abundance log e(Li)=3.2 +/- 0.1 for stars in the Main sequence. Possible sources of lithium enrichment in the interstellar medium during evolution of the galaxy are discussed. 3) Evolving FGK dwarfs in the galactic disk, which have lower log e(Li) for lower effective temperature Teff and mass M. The "lithium dip" near Teff~6600 K in the distribution of log e(Li) with respect to Teff in old clusters is discussed. 4) FGK giants and supergiants, of which most have no lithium at all. This phenomenon is consistent with rotating star model calculations. 5) Lithium rich cold giants with log e(Li) > 2.0 , which form a small, enigmatic group. Theoretical models with rotation can explain the existence of these stars only in the case of low initial rotation velocities V0 < 50 km/s. In all other cases it is necessary to assume recent synthesis of lithium (capture of a giant planet is an alternative). 6) Magnetic Ap-stars, where lithium is concentrated in spots located at the magnetic poles. There the lithium abundance reaches log e(Li)=6. Discrepancies between observations and theory are noted for almost all the stars discussed in this review.

description: In this work we obtain a Liouville theorem for positive, bounded solutions of the equation $$ (-Δ)^s u= h(x_N)f(u) \quad \hbox{in }\mathbb{R}^{N} $$ where $(-Δ)^s$ stands for the fractional Laplacian with $s\in (0,1)$, and the functions $h$ and $f$ are nondecreasing. The main feature is that the function $h$ changes sign in $\mathbb{R}$, therefore the problem is sometimes termed as indefinite. As an application we obtain a priori bounds for positive solutions of some boundary value problems, which give existence of such solutions by means of bifurcation methods.

description: Complaint of itching in children is a frequent reason to call a doctor. In the vast majority of cases itching in children is caused by dermatological diseases. The most common itching dermatosises in chidren are allergodermathosises, skin parasitosises, post-bite status and skin xerosis. Despite differences in etiology of these conditions allergic and inflammatory responses prevail in the itching pathogeny. In children and teenagers a durable focus of itching can cause the building of stereotypical responces and chronization of dermathosis, and needs urgent intensive treatment. Methylprednisolone aceponate (Advantan) is safe and effective medicine for the complex treatment for itching in children.

description: In 2018 CMS reported an excessin the light Higgs-boson searchin the diphoton decay mode atabout 95~GeVbased on Run~1 and first year Run~2 data.The combined local significance of theexcess was $2.8\,\sigma$.The excess is compatible with thelimits obtained in the ATLAS searchesfrom the diphoton search channel.Recently, CMS reported another localexcess with a significance of$3.1\,\sigma$ in the light Higgs-boson searchin the di-tau final state, which iscompatible with the interpretationof a Higgs boson with a mass ofabout 95~GeV.We show that the observed results can be interpreted as manifestations of a Higgs boson in the Two-Higgs DoubletModel with an additional realsinglet (N2HDM).We find that the lightest Higgs bosonof the N2HDM can fitboth excesses simultaneously,while the second-lightest state issuch that it satisfies the Higgs-boson measurements at125~GeV, and the full Higgs-bosonsector is compatible with all Higgs exclusionbounds from the searches atLEP, the Tevatron and the LHC aswell as with other theoretical andexperimental constraints.Finally, we demonstrate that itis furthermore possible toaccommodate the excesses observedby CMS in the two search channels togetherwith a local $2.3\,\sigma$ excessin the $b \bar b$ final stateobserved at LEP in the same mass range

description: We derive Maxwell equations for electric and magnetic fields in curved spacetime from first principles. We show that the latter system enjoys an SO(2) duality symmetry, contrary to the results of previous works. We find that in a detector with static background magnetic or electric field, the weak gravity effects are analogous to the effects from a medium composed of both electrically and magnetically charged particles. We show that generation of electromagnetic radiation by gravitational waves in an external magnetic field is four times more efficient than previously believed. We discuss differences between axion and gravitational wave electrodynamics.

description: We introduce perfect half space games, in which the goal of Player 2 is to make the sums of encountered multi-dimensional weights diverge in a direction which is consistent with a chosen sequence of perfect half spaces (chosen dynamically by Player 2). We establish that the bounding games of Jurdziński et al. (ICALP 2015) can be reduced to perfect half space games, which in turn can be translated to the lexicographic energy games of Colcombet and Niwiński, and are positionally determined in a strong sense (Player 2 can play without knowing the current perfect half space). We finally show how perfect half space games and bounding games can be employed to solve multi-dimensional energy parity games in pseudo-polynomial time when both the numbers of energy dimensions and of priorities are fixed, regardless of whether the initial credit is given as part of the input or existentially quantified. This also yields an optimal 2-EXPTIME complexity with given initial credit, where the best known upper bound was non-elementary.

description: Background: Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is an autoimmune connective tissue disorder whose aetiology is not fully understood. Skin fibrosis and visceral organs involvement are the hallmarks, and the heart could be disproportionately or subtly involved. Cardiovascular manifestations could include arrhythmias, pericarditis, myocardial fibrosis, pulmonary hypertension and congestive heart failure. Pulmonary involvement could cause lung fibrosis, arteriolar thickening, and pulmonary hypertension. The presence of these manifestations confers a poor prognosis. Case Report: The case report presents a 50-year-old male patient with generalized skin sclerosis, hypo and hyperpigmented skin lesions, dyspnoea at rest, displaced apical impulse, tachycardia and pan-systolic murmur at the apex radiating to the axilla. Echo cardiography features showed ejection fraction of 33.3% with dilated atrial and ventricular chambers. Conclusions: We present a case systemic sclerosis complicated by biventricular heart failure and pulmonary hypertension.

description: We find a simple modification of the longitudinal mode in General Relativity which incorporates the idea of limiting curvature. In this case the singularities in contracting Friedmann and Kasner universes are avoided, and instead, the universe has a regular bounce which takes place during the time inversely proportional to the square root of the limiting curvature. Away from the bounce, corrections to General Relativity are negligible. In addition the non-singluar modification of General Relativity delivers for free a realistic candidate for Dark Matter.

description: We study the luminosity function of intermediate-age red-clump stars using deep, near-infrared photometric data covering $\sim$ 20 deg$^2$ located throughout the central part of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC), comprising the main body and the galaxy's eastern wing, based on observations obtained with the VISTA Survey of the Magellanic Clouds (VMC). We identified regions which show a foreground population ($\sim$11.8 $\pm$ 2.0 kpc in front of the main body) in the form of a distance bimodality in the red-clump distribution. The most likely explanation for the origin of this feature is tidal stripping from the SMC rather than the extended stellar haloes of the Magellanic Clouds and/or tidally stripped stars from the Large Magellanic Cloud. The homogeneous and continuous VMC data trace this feature in the direction of the Magellanic Bridge and, particularly, identify (for the first time) the inner region ($\sim$ 2 -- 2.5 kpc from the centre) from where the signatures of interactions start becoming evident. This result provides observational evidence of the formation of the Magellanic Bridge from tidally stripped material from the SMC.

description: Phase response curve (PRC) is an extremely useful tool for studying the response of oscillatory systems, e.g. neurons, to sparse or weak stimulation. Here we develop a framework for studying the response to a series of pulses which are frequent or/and strong so that the standard PRC fails. We show that in this case, the phase shift caused by each pulse depends on the history of several previous pulses. We call the corresponding function which measures this shift the phase response function (PRF). As a result of the introduction of the PRF, a variety of oscillatory systems with pulse interaction, such as neural systems, can be reduced to phase systems. The main assumption of the classical PRC model, i.e. that the effect of the stimulus vanishes before the next one arrives, is no longer a restriction in our approach. However, as a result of the phase reduction, the system acquires memory, which is not just a technical nuisance but an intrinsic property relevant to strong stimulation. We illustrate the PRF approach by its application to various systems, such as Morris-Lecar, Hodgkin-Huxley neuron models, and others. We show that the PRF allows predicting the dynamics of forced and coupled oscillators even when the PRC fails.
title: Animalizing women and feminizing men: The psychological intersections of human supremacism, sexism, and anti-veganism
Creators: name: Salmen, Alina
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2022

description: Ecofeminist scholars have proposed that oppressive attitudes towards women and animals are interrelated. This thesis uses quantitative methods to test predictions derived from ecofeminist theory that have thus far received little empirical attention in psychology. The first empirical chapter of this thesis, Chapter 2, investigates the associations between human supremacy beliefs over animals and nature, dehumanization of women, and ambivalent sexism. Across five studies (total N = 2,409), human supremacy beliefs were associated with hostile and benevolent sexism. Dehumanization of women was primarily associated with hostile sexism, whereas views of women as connected to nature were primarily associated with benevolent sexism. The results further demonstrated that Social Dominance Orientation as an underlying ideological factor partly explained the association between human supremacy beliefs and sexism and between dehumanization and hostile sexism, whereas benevolent beliefs about nature partly explained the association between women's connection to nature and benevolent sexism. The second empirical chapter, Chapter 3, focuses on the role of masculinity perceptions and gender role beliefs in the evaluation of plant-based meat alternatives. Across two experiments (total N = 484), images of identical meat dishes were evaluated more negatively when labelled as plant-based meat as opposed to regular meat, and this was partly explained by the lower perceived masculinity of plant-based meat dishes. The association between perceived masculinity and evaluations was stronger for participants higher (vs. lower) in traditional gender role beliefs. The third empirical chapter, Chapter 4, turns the focus onto the role of masculinity perceptions and gender role beliefs in bias towards vegetarian and vegan men. One correlational study and two experiments (total N = 1258) confirmed that bias towards vegetarian and vegan men is partly explained by their lower perceived masculinity, and that this link is stronger for those higher (vs. lower) in traditional gender role beliefs. Taken together, the findings of this thesis demonstrate that 1) beliefs about nature and animals, and about women in relation to nature and animals, are associated with gender-based prejudice and 2) beliefs about gender roles and perceptions of masculinity are associated with anti-vegan biases towards both plant-based meat alternatives and vegan men. Thus, this thesis adds to the growing body of literature showing that human intergroup and human-animal relations are meaningfully interconnected and can inform and expand each other.

description: The Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) is the second-most widely used tree species in forestry in Latvia and is the only species used for afforestation on nutrient poor soils that cover considerable forest land in Latvia. Several studies have shown that, in such conditions, the lodgepole pine (Pinus contorta var. latifolia) may be more productive in terms of biomass and yield. It is important to consider climate change studies to assess the potential for a larger-scale use of the lodgepole pine in forestry. The aim was to assess the intra-annual height growth patterns of both species, the differences between them, and the influence of meteorological parameters on their height growth. Their height growth was monitored on a weekly basis in two sampling sites in central Latvia, and the height increment curves were described by Gompertz’s model. The height growth dynamics of individual trees and species differed notably, indicating the potential for the selection of the best-adapted genotypes. Our results indicate that the early onset of the active growth phase might be the most important factor determining the total height increment for both species. Temperature-related meteorological parameters were the only ones with a statistically significant influence on pines height growth and only when at least one of the variables were standardised prior to the analysis. A temperature increase had a slightly stronger positive effect on the growth of the lodgepole pine, indicating that it might be suitable for more intensive use in forestry under the climate change scenarios for Latvia.

description: Viability indicator traits are expected to be integrated extensively across the genome yet sex-limited to ensure that any benefits are sexually concordant. Understanding how such expectations are accommodated requires elucidating the quantitative genetic architecture of candidate traits in and across the sexes. Here we applied an animal modelling approach to partition the autosomal, allosomal, and direct maternal bases of variation in sexual versus non-sexual dorsal wing colouration in the butterfly Eurema hecabe. The sexual colour trait – coherently scattered ultraviolet that is under strong directional selection due to female choice – is brighter and more expansive in males, and overlays non-sexual pigmentary yellow markings that otherwise dominate both wing surfaces in each sex. Our modelling estimated high and sexually-equivalent autosomal variances for ultraviolet reflectance (furnishing h2 ~ 0.58 overall and ~0.75 in males), accompanied by smaller but generally significant Z-linked and maternal components. By contrast, variation in non-sexual yellow was largely attributed to Z-linked sources. Intersexual genetic correlations based upon the major source of variation in each trait were high and not different from 1.0, implying regulation by a pool of genes common to each sex. An expansive autosomal basis for ultraviolet is consistent with its hypothesized role as a genome-wide viability indicator, and ensures that both sons and daughters will inherit their father's attractiveness.

description: The effect of various K+ and Ca2+ nutrient solutions were evaluated to measure the growth rate, amount of reducing sugars and the production of Capsicum annuum Plants were grown directly in soil under shade house conditions in two separate experiments across two consecutive years. Nine nutrient solutions containing three levels of K+ (27, 35 and 43%) combined with three levels of Ca2+ (37, 45 and 53%) were used, along with the Steiner solution treatment as a control. Irrigation was calculated every week according to Kc, volumetric humidity and ETo, the experimental design was a block (furrows) with a 3(x)3 factorial arrangement. There was no interaction between growth rate, sugars and yield. Plants treated with the combination 27% of potassium with 53% of calcium presented a yield of 500 g/fruit greater than the control treatment (Steiner), and produced on average 2 more fruits per plant with a weight of 160 g/fruit (<0.05) higher than Steiner, the low potassium concentration (27%) induced a lower concentration of sugars with a value >3 mg/ml during the first crop cycle, it were analyzed during the flowering stage, and in the second agricultural cycle, during the fruiting stage it was < 4 mg/ml.

Among them, the colletotricones A and B possess a cyclohexenone skeleton, whereas the colletotricole A is a thiazole derivative. Their structures were fully assigned with the aid of extensive spectroscopic analysis and data from the literature. Moreover, cytotoxic activity in vitro of compounds 1 and 3–9 were evaluated against MCF-7, NCI-H460, HepG-2 and SF-268 tumour cell lines. The new compound 1 exhibited growth inhibitory activity against all the four tumour cell lines with IC50 values ranging from 15.7 to 46.8 μM.

description: It has recently become possible to study the dynamics of information diffusion in techno-social systems at scale, due to the emergence of online platforms, such as Twitter, with millions of users. One question that systematically recurs is whether information spreads according to simple or complex dynamics: does each exposure to a piece of information have an independent probability of a user adopting it (simple contagion), or does this probability depend instead on the number of sources of exposure, increasing above some threshold (complex contagion)? Most studies to date are observational and, therefore, unable to disentangle the effects of confounding factors such as social reinforcement, homophily, limited attention, or network community structure. Here we describe a novel controlled experiment that we performed on Twitter using `social bots' deployed to carry out coordinated attempts at spreading information. We propose two Bayesian statistical models describing simple and complex contagion dynamics, and test the competing hypotheses. We provide experimental evidence that the complex contagion model describes the observed information diffusion behavior more accurately than simple contagion. Future applications of our results include more effective defenses against malicious propaganda campaigns on social media, improved marketing and advertisement strategies, and design of effective network intervention techniques.

description: We consider the Schwarzschild black hole and show how, in a theory with limiting curvature, the physical singularity "inside it" is removed. The resulting spacetime is geodesically complete. The internal structure of this nonsingular black hole is analogus to Russian nesting dolls. Namely, after falling into the black hole of radius $r_{g}$, an observer, instead of being destroyed at the singularity, gets for a short time into the region with limiting curvature. After that he re-emerges in the near horizon region of a spacetime described by the Schwarzschild metric of a gravitational radius proportional to $r_{g}^{1/3}$. In the next cycle, after passing the limiting curvature, the observer finds himself within a black hole of even smaller radius proportional to $r_{g}^{1/9}$, and so on. Finally after few cycles he will end up in the spacetime where he remains forever at limiting curvature.

description: When the drive which causes the level crossing in a qubit is slow, the probability, P_{LZ}, of the Landau-Zener transition is close to 1. We show that in this regime, which is most promising for applications, the noise due to the coupling to the environment, reduces the average P_{LZ}. At the same time, the survival probability, 1-P_{LZ}, which is exponentially small for a slow drive, can be completely dominated by noise-induced correction. Our main message is that the effect of a weak classical noise can be captured analytically by treating it as a perturbation in the Schroedinger equation. This allows us to study the dependence of the noise-induced correction to P_{LZ} on the correlation time of the noise. As this correlation time exceeds the bare Landau-Zener transition time, the effect of noise becomes negligible. We consider two conventional realizations of noise: Gaussian noise and telegraph noise.

description: Background: The term no-reflow was first used by Majno and colleagues in the setting of cerebral ischemia in 1967. This phenomenon was initially described by Krug et al. during induced myocardial infarction in the canine model in1966 and again by Kloner et al. in1974 in which it occurred for 90 min after temporary epicardial coronary artery occlusion. Myocardial tracers, such as carbon black or thioflavin S were injected to document uniform flow distribution across the myocardial tissue after 40 min of occlusion. After 90 min, persistent subendocardial perfusion defects were seen with no-reflow. Objectives: Detection, prevention, and treatment of no-refloware likely to have an important impact on the outcome of PPCI. Here we propose possible personalized forms of prevention and treatment, on the basis of the notion that no-reflow is a dynamic process characterized by multiple pathogenetic components. Methods: We analyzed a total of 120 consecutive patients with STEMI and treated with PPCI between 1st of November 2016 to July 2017 at our institution. The patients are divided into two groups according to the final TIMI flow after the primary PCI, and the incidence of in hospital MACE as follows: Group A: had a normal flow after the PPCI and did not have in hospital MACE; Group B: had either no reflow after the PPCI or experienced in hospital MACE. Results: The incidence of no reflow was 13.2%, and in hospital MACE was 5%, with cardiac death as the predominant form of in hospital MACE. The group with no reflow or in hospital MACE showed significantly older age, longer door to balloon time, higher levels of admission RPG, N/L ratio, and MPV. Compared to the literature, Egyptian patients had more diabetes mellitus, more dyslipidaemia, longer door to balloon time. Conclusions: Older patient age, longer door to balloon time, admission hyperglycemia, higher admission N/L ratio, MPV, longer reperfusion time, elevated level of high sensitive CRP on admission, and markedly elevated levels of CKMB, large thrombus burden LTB, are useful predictive factors for the occurrence of no reflow post PPCI, and/or in hospital MACE.

description: Information retrieval (IR) is essential in search engines and dialogue systems as well as natural language processing tasks such as open-domain question answering. IR serve an important function in the biomedical domain, where content and sources of scientific knowledge may evolve rapidly. Although neural retrievers have surpassed traditional IR approaches such as TF-IDF and BM25 in standard open-domain question answering tasks, they are still found lacking in the biomedical domain. In this paper, we seek to improve information retrieval (IR) using neural retrievers (NR) in the biomedical domain, and achieve this goal using a three-pronged approach. First, to tackle the relative lack of data in the biomedical domain, we propose a template-based question generation method that can be leveraged to train neural retriever models. Second, we develop two novel pre-training tasks that are closely aligned to the downstream task of information retrieval. Third, we introduce the ``Poly-DPR'' model which encodes each context into multiple context vectors. Extensive experiments and analysis on the BioASQ challenge suggest that our proposed method leads to large gains over existing neural approaches and beats BM25 in the small-corpus setting. We show that BM25 and our method can complement each other, and a simple hybrid model leads to further gains in the large corpus setting.

description: This work proposes an investigation on the scaling of the structural strength of polymer/graphene nanocomposites. To this end, fracture tests on geometrically scaled Single Edge Notch Bending (SENB) specimens with varying contents of graphene were conducted to study the effects of nanomodification on the scaling. It is shown that, while the strength of the pristine polymer scales according to Linear Elastic Fracture Mechanics (LEFM), this is not the case for nanocomposites, even for very low graphene contents. In fact, small specimens exhibited a more pronounced ductility with limited scaling and a significant deviation from LEFM whereas larger specimens behaved in a more brittle way, with scaling of nominal strength closer to the one predicted by LEFM. This behavior, due to the significant size of the Fracture Process Zone (FPZ) compared to the specimen size, needs to be taken into serious consideration. In facts, it is shown that, for the specimen sizes investigated in this work, neglecting the non-linear effects of the FPZ can lead to an underestimation of the fracture energy as high as 113%, this error decreasing for increasing specimen sizes.

description: The combination of single photon emitters (quantum dots) and tailored metal nanoparticles with defined size and shape allows a detailed study of the interaction between light and matter. The enhanced optical near-field of the nanoparticles can strongly influence the absorption and emission of nearby fluorescent quantum dots. We show that a controlled spatial arrangement enables the analysis and understanding of polarization dependent coupling between a metal nanoparticle and few or single fluorescent quantum dots. Modifications in the fluorescence spectrum and lifetime are analyzed and compare well with simulations.

description: In order to detect the effect of the surface charge discreteness on the properties at the solid-liquid interface, molecular dynamics simulation model taking consideration of the vibration of wall atoms was used to investigate the ion and water performance under different charge distributions. Through the comparison between simulation results and the theoretical prediction, it was found that, with the degree of discreteness increasing, much more counterions were attracted to the surface. These ions formed a denser accumulating layer which located much nearer to the surface and caused charge inversion. The ions in this layer were non-hydrated or partially hydrated. When a voltage was applied across the nanochannel, this dense accumulating layer did not move unlike the ions near uniformly charged surface. From the water density profiles obtained in nanochannels with different surface charge distributions, the influence of the surface charge discreteness on the water distributions could be neglected.

description: The chemical composition of the essential oil and the n-hexane (Hex), Ethyl Acetate (EtOAc) and butanol (BuOH) extracts from the leaves of Helietta parvifolia were determined by detailed GC-MS analysis, spectroscopic and spectrometric data. Eighty-four compounds were identified, revealing a furoquinoline alkaloid-rich composition. The phytochemical analysis of the extracts allowed the isolation of eigth furoquinoline alkaloids. Retention indices in GC-MS for six of this alkaloids are reported for the first time. Furoquinoline alkaloids are acethylcholinesterase inhibitors. Thus, the essential oil and extracts were submitted to this in vitro assay. The EtOAc and BuOH extracts showed potent activity, with IC50 of 9.7 and 12.9 μg mL−1, respectively. Additionaly, a correlation of their chemical constituents, established by principal component analysis (PCA) demostrated a similar profile and a high content of alkaloids. It is for these reasons that we can assume that the alkaloid content in these extracts could be responsible for their anticholinesterase activity.

description: The mathematical logic of a true nature of mirror symmetry expresses, in the case of the Dirac Lagrangian, the ideas of the left- and right-handed photons referring to long- and short-lived particles, respectively. Such a difference in lifetimes says about the photons of the different components having the unidentical masses, energies, and momenta. This requires the generalization of the classical Klein-Gordon equation to the case of all types of bosons with a nonzero spin. The latter together with a new Dirac equation admits the existence of the second type of the local gauge transformation responsible for origination in the Lagrangian of an interaction Newton component, which gives an inertial mass to all the interacting matter fields. The quantum mass operator and the mirror presentation of the classical Schrödinger equation suggest one more highly important equation. Findings show clearly that each of the quantum mass, energy, and momentum operators can individually act on the wave function. They constitute herewith the Euler-Lagrange equation at the level of the mass-charge structure of gauge invariance.
