description: Designing and realizing various magnetization textures in magnetic nanostructures are essential for developing novel magnetic nanodevices in modern information industry. Among all these textures, planar transverse domain walls (pTDWs) are the simplest and the most basic, which make them popular in device physics. In this work, we report the engineering of pTDWs with arbitrary tilting attitude in biaxial magnetic nanostrips by transverse magnetic field profiles with uniform orientation but tunable strength distribution. Both statics and axial-field-driven dynamics of these pTDWs are analytically investigated. It turns out that for statics these pTDWs are robust again disturbances which are not too abrupt, while for dynamics it can be tailored to acquire higher velocity than Walker's ansatz predicts. These results should provide inspirations for designing magnetic nanodevices with novel one-dimensional magnetization textures, such as 360$^\circ$ walls, or even two-dimensional ones, for example vortices, skyrmions, etc.

description: An action of a group $G$ on a compact space $X$ is called weakly almost periodic if the orbit of every continuous function on $X$ is weakly relatively compact in $C(X)$. We observe that for a topological group $G$ the following are equivalent: (i) every continuous action of $G$ on a compact space is weakly almost periodic; (ii) $G$ is precompact. For monothetic groups the result was previously obtained by Akin and Glasner, while for locally compact groups it has been known for a long time.

description: † Lekanoleo
 SPECIES SCORED: † Lekanoleo roskellyae (type and only described species).
GEOLOGICAL PROVENANCE OF SCORED SPECIMENS: White Hunter site (Riversleigh Faunal Zone A), and Upper, Dirk’s Towers, and Camel Sputum sites (Riversleigh Faunal Zone B), Riversleigh World Heritage Area, Queensland, Australia.
AGE OF SCORED SPECIMENS: Riversleigh Faunal zones A and B are interpreted to be late Oligocene and early Miocene respectively, based on biostratigraphy (see above). We have assigned the entire age range of the late Oligocene to early Miocene (Chattian to Serravallian; Cohen et al., 2013 [updated]).
ASSIGNED AGE RANGE: 27.820 –15.970 Mya.
 REMARKS: † Lekanoleo roskellyae is one of the oldest thylacoleonids known from relatively complete craniodental material, with a single well-preserved cranium (QM F23453) collected from Upper Site in Riversleigh Faunal Zone B, and additional craniodental fragments known from sites in Riversleigh Faunal zones A and B (Gillespie, 1997, 2007; Gillespie et al., 2020). In her original description, which was of the upper dentition of QM F23453 only, Gillespie (1997) referred this taxon to the existing genus † Priscileo. More recently, Gillespie et al. (2020) described the cranial morphology of QM F23453, provided additional information on the dentition, and referred this taxon to a new genus, † Lekanoleo. † Lekanoleo roskellyae is notable for its small size relative to most other known thylacoleonids, with an estimated body mass of 1.8 kg based on dental measurements (Gillespie et al., 2016) and 2.7– 3.1 kg based on skull length (Gillespie et al., 2020); however, † Microleo attenboroughi, from the early Miocene (Riversleigh Faunal Zone B) Neville’s Garden site at Riverseigh, which is known from much less complete remains, and so has not been included in this study, is even smaller, with an estimated body mass of 590 g based on dental measurements (Gillespie et al., 2016).

description: Ultra-high-energy cosmic rays (UHECRs) are known to come from outside of our Galaxy, but their origin still remains unknown. The Telescope Array (TA) experiment recently identified a high concentration in the arrival directions of UHECRs with energies above $5.7 \times 10^{19} eV$, called hotspot. We here report the presence of filaments of galaxies, connected to the Virgo Cluster, on the sky around the hotspot, and a statistically significant correlation between hotspot events and the filaments. With 5-year TA data, the maximum significance of binomial statistics for the correlation is estimated to be 6.1 $σ$ at correlation angle 3.4 degree. The probability that the above significance appears by chance is $\sim 2.0 \times 10^{-8}$ (5.6 $σ$). Based on this finding, we suggest a model for the origin of TA hotspot UHECRs; they are produced at sources in the Virgo Cluster, and escape to and propagate along filaments, before they are scattered toward us. This picture requires the filament magnetic fields of strength $\gtrsim 20$ nG, which need to be confirmed in future observations.

description: Additional file 1. Reduced acidification during the cultivation of Bacillus licheniformis DSM 8785. Cultivations in 10 mL Nakashimada medium with addition of different MES buffer concentrations (0, 100 and 200 mM as indicated in the figure) and different initial pH values (6.5 and 7.0 as indicated in the figure) are compared. Without addition of MES buffer, acetate formation was observed (up to 4.0 and 5.8 g/L for the cultivations with initial pH of 6.5 and 7, respectively). No acetate was measured in the cultures with MES addition. As indicated by the vertical dotted line, the shaking frequency was reduced from 350 to 100 rpm after 3 h. Thereby, oxygen-limited conditions are induced at the same time for all cultivations. Data on oxygen transfer rate (OTR) (a), glucose and (b) total 2,3-butanediol concentration (c) and pH (d) are depicted. 2,3-Butanediol is shown as sum of the stereoisomers. To account for the increase of metabolite concentrations due to evaporation of water, all concentrations were corrected accordingly and referred to the initial filling volume. Cultivation conditions: 250 mL unbaffled shake flasks, temperature: 37 Â°C, shaking frequency: 350/100 rpm, shaking diameter: 50 mm, filling volume: 10 mL.

description: We use multiscale perturbation theory in conjunction with the inverse scattering transform to study the interaction of a number of solitons of the cubic nonlinear Schroedinger equation under the influence of a small correction to the nonlinear potential. We assume that the solitons are all moving with the same velocity at the initial instant; this maximizes the effect each soliton has on the others as a consequence of the perturbation. Over the long time scales that we consider, the amplitudes of the solitons remain fixed, while their center of mass coordinates obey Newton's equations with a force law for which we present an integral formula. For the interaction of two solitons with a quintic perturbation term we present more details since symmetries -- one related to the form of the perturbation and one related to the small number of particles involved -- allow the problem to be reduced to a one-dimensional one with a single parameter, an effective mass. The main results include calculations of the binding energy and oscillation frequency of nearby solitons in the stable case when the perturbation is an attractive correction to the potential and of the asymptotic "ejection" velocity in the unstable case. Numerical experiments illustrate the accuracy of the perturbative calculations and indicate their range of validity.

description: We examine the reduced phase space of the Barbero-Varadarajan solutions of the Ashtekar formulation of (2+1)-dimensional general relativity on a torus. We show that it is a finite-dimensional space due to existence of an infinite dimensional residual gauge invariance which reduces the infinite-dimensional space of solutions to a finite-dimensional space of gauge-inequivalent solutions. This is in agreement with general arguments which imply that the number of physical degrees of freedom for (2+1)-dimensional Ashtekar gravity on a torus is finite.

 SPECIES SCORED: † Wakaleo vanderleueri (type species).
GEOLOGICAL PROVENANCE OF SCORED SPECIMENS: Bullock Creek Local Fauna, Northern Territory; Encore site (Riversleigh Faunal Zone D), Riversleigh World Heritage Area, Queensland, Australia.
AGE OF SCORED SPECIMENS: The Bullock Creek Local Fauna is interpreted to be middle Miocene based on biostratigraphy, whereas Riversleigh Faunal Zone D is estimated to be early late Miocene, also based on biostratigraphy (see above). In the absence of radiometric dates, we have assumed the entire span of the middle to late Miocene (Langhian to Messinian; Cohen et al., 2013 [updated]) for this terminal.
ASSIGNED AGE RANGE: 15.970 –5.333 Mya.
 REMARKS: † Wakaleo vanderleueri is known from a single exceptionally well-preserved holotype cranium (CPC 26604, which was described in detail by Murray et al., 1987) and additional dental material from the middle Miocene Bullock Creek Local Fauna (Clemens and Plane, 1974; Megirian, 1986; Murray and Megirian, 1990). We used these Bullock Creek specimens to score character data, together with additional dental specimens from the Encore Site of Riversleigh Faunal Zone D that were also referred to † W. vanderleuri by Gillespie et al. (2014). A single isolated M3 (QM F36466) from the Golden Steph (GS) site of Riversleigh Faunal Zone C was identified by Gillespie et al. (2014) as representing † W. vanderleuri, but this specimen has not been used for scoring purposes here.

description: The central target of spintronics research is to achieve flexible control of highly efficient and spin-polarized electronic currents. Based on first-principles calculations and k-p models, we demonstrate that Cu2S/MnSe heterostructures are a novel type of Chern insulators with half-metallic chiral edge states and a very high Fermi velocity (0.87 * 10^6 m/s). The full spin-polarization of the edge states is found to be robust against the tuning of the chemical potential. Unlike the mechanisms reported previously, this heterostructure has quadratic bands with a normal band order, that is, the p/d-like band is below the s-like band. Charge transfer between the Cu2S moiety and the substrate results in variation in the occupied bands, which together with spin-orbit coupling, triggers the appearance of the topological state in the system. These results imply that numerous ordinary semiconductors with normal band order may convert into Chern insulators with half-metallic chiral edge states through this mechanism, providing a strategy to find a rich variety of materials for dissipationless, 100% spin-polarized and high-speed spintronic devices.

title: P. falciparum Transmission Intensity and the Quality of Antimalarial Antibodies
Creators: name: Ssewanyana, I
Publisher: name: London School of Hygiene & Tropical Medicine
Year: 2021

description: Immunity to malaria, where antibodies play a critical role, is acquired slowly, rarely sterile, and poorly maintained. The quality than just the quantity of antibodies may provide more insight into the slow acquisition and poor maintenance of immunity to malaria. I hypothesized that frequent P. falciparum infections interrupt avidity maturation and IgG subclass composition, which affects the acquisition and maintenance of immunity to malaria. In the first aim, the avidity index to AMA-1 and MSP1-19 was compared across three crosssectional malaria transmission intensity sites. In the second and third aims, avidity index, total IgG, and IgG1 – 4 against 18 P. falciparum blood-stage antigens were measured in a longitudinal cohort at 4-time-points; 2 before and 2 after interruption of malaria transmission by IRS. Results showed that avidity to both AMA-1 and MSP1-19 was significantly lower at the site of highest P. falciparum transmission in children above 5 years and adults. In all 18 malaria blood-stage antigens, the avidity index was positively associated with days since the last infection independent of age and heterogeneous across antigens. There was heterogeneity in antibody half-life estimation across antigens and IgG subclasses. IgG3 had the shortest half-life of the IgG subclasses. The predominance of IgG subclass in the absence of infection shifted from IgG1 to IgG3 with age. IgG3 improved the specificity of antigens as a marker of recent infection compared to total IgG. 3 P. Results provide supporting evidence to our hypothesis by demonstrating (i) preferential expansion of non-avid antibody pool that rapidly wane in the absence of infection (ii) slow acquisition of the avid antibody pool that persists in the absence of infection. (iii) slow acquisition of IgG3 memory. The thesis provides the rationale for further investigation of malaria-specific MBC phenotypes, class switching, somatic hypermutation, the avidity of antibodies, and the antibody in vitro function. These further studies will provide more knowledge in the acquisition and maintenance of effective antibody memory.

Baselining UBC’s Urban Forest : Vancouver Campus
Creators: name: Eshpeter, Sarah
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia

description: The University of British Columbia (UBC) Vancouver campus houses a plethora of natural assets- most notably, its urban forest. UBC Campus is infamous for its coastal forest setting, which is arguably one of the most important factors in developing its identity and attracting its outstanding student body. While the urban forest supplies many benefits to the socio­ecological environment, it is still insufficiently recognized in urban planning and development. In the broader context of campus, the City of Vancouver has developed an Urban Forest Strategy and associated targets and, as a separate entity, UBC needs to follow suit. An emerging campus Urban Forest Management Plan (UFMP) is in its beginning phases, however in order to produce a valuable mechanism for management and decision-making, there is an urgent need for more information and research to sufficiently recognize and baseline the campus urban forest to inform the future management and monitoring of UBC's most prominent natural asset. This study aims to inform the development of the UBC Urban Forest Management Plan by further exploring the status of the campus urban forest, associated ecosystem services, and providing recommendations for planting locations and species selection to maximize value. Specific project objectives are to: 1. Represent the current status of the campus urban forest given pre-existing and derived data; 2. Identify and quantify namely the environmental benefits associated with the campus urban forest; and 3. Develop recommendations and priorities for campus urban forest management. Collectively these objectives seek to increase the vigour, resiliency, and functionality of the campus urban forest, enhancing its full suite of associated socio-ecological benefits, in addition to its mitigation and adaptive capacity.

description: We consider a hybrid structure formed by graphene and an insulating antiferromagnet, separated by a dielectric of thickness up to $d\simeq 500 \,nm$. When uncoupled, both graphene and the antiferromagnetic surface host their own polariton modes coupling the electromagnetic field with plasmons in the case of graphene, and with magnons in the case of the antiferromagnet. We show that the hybrid structure can host two new types of hybrid polariton modes. First, a surface magnon-plasmon polariton whose dispersion is radically changed by the carrier density of the graphene layer, including a change of sign in the group velocity. Second, a surface plasmon-magnon polariton formed as a linear superposition of graphene surface plasmon and the antiferromagnetic bare magnon. This polariton has a dispersion with two branches, formed by the anticrossing between the dispersive surface plasmon and the magnon. We discuss the potential these new modes have for combining photons, magnons, and plasmons to reach new functionalities.

description: We discuss the propagation of scalars in a large class of non-extremal black hole and black p-brane geometries in generic dimensions. We show that the radial wave equation near the horizon possesses the SL(2,R) structure in every case; approximately it takes the form of the wave equation in the SL(2,R) (AdS_3) background and has a symmetry related to the T-duality of the string model in that geometry. We see a close connection to two and three dimensional black holes. We also find that, in some parameter region, the absorption cross-sections by the black objects take the form expected from a conformal field theory. Our results indicate that some of the properties known about a certain class of four and five dimensional black holes hold more generally.

Vernacularization of CEDAW in the United States: Localization Process and Sustainability of CEDAW Instruments to Prevent and Combat Violence against Women
Creators: Chouinard, Michelle

Subjects: Human rights
Women--Violence against--Prevention
Humanitarian law

description: Since 1998, six cities in the United States have adopted legally binding CEDAW ordinances and more than twenty other localities have adopted non-binding resolutions in support of CEDAW. Human rights advocates in the United States are increasingly turning to local implementation of international human rights to specifically remedy the absence of adequate federal policies to comprehensively combat and prevent violence against women. This research identifies the process of translating and adopting CEDAW at the local level in the United States to combat and prevent violence against women, as well as the sustainability and viability of these instruments. To ensure proper translation, adopting international human rights law at the local level requires laborious and time-consuming trainings and education, which are not executed consistently in many of these local contexts. Additionally, lacking forms of local institutionalization, important actors in the vernacularization of CEDAW are unstable at the local level, exacerbated by vertical hierarchies that characterize CEDAW advocacy. Finally, a review of implementation attempts by local governments suggests that, as they exist today, CEDAW ordinances are not sustainable; current methods and measures operate under the assumption that the adoption of an ordinance and the establishment of an oversight body are enough to ensure effective and monitored implementation. However, through modified approaches to adopting and implementing local CEDAW ordinances, human rights have the potential to be realized in a concrete manner.

description: It is by now well established that high-quality graphene enables a gate-tunable low-loss plasmonic platform for the efficient confinement, enhancement, and manipulation of optical fields spanning a broad range of frequencies, from the mid infrared to the Terahertz domain. While all-electrical detection of graphene plasmons has been demonstrated, electrical plasmon injection (EPI), which is crucial to operate nanoplasmonic devices without the encumbrance of a far-field optical apparatus, remains elusive. In this work, we present a theory of EPI in double-layer graphene, where a vertical tunnel current excites acoustic and optical plasmon modes. We first calculate the power delivered by the applied inter-layer voltage bias into these collective modes. We then show that this system works also as a spectrally-resolved molecular sensor.

description: † Ilaria
 SPECIES SCORED: † Ilaria illumidens (type species), † I. lawsoni.
 GEOLOGICAL PROVENANCE OF SCORED SPECIMENS: AMNH site B, Zone B (Pinpa Local Fauna) Namba Formation, Lake Pinpa, South Australia († I. illumidens); AMNH SIAM locality, unit 6, Zone B (Ditjimanka Local Fauna), Lake Palankarinna, Etadunna Formation, South Australia († I. lawsoni);
AGE OF SCORED SPECIMENS: Based on palaeomagnetic data, Metzger and Retallack (2010) estimated the Etadunna Formation to span 26.1– 23.6 Mya. Zone A of the Etadunna Formation and the Pinpa Local Fauna of the Namba Formation appear to be stratigraphic equivalents (Woodburne et al., 1994). However, in the absence of radiometric dates, we have assumed the entire span of the late Oligocene (Chattian; Cohen et al., 2013 [updated]) for this terminal.
ASSIGNED AGE RANGE: 27.820 –23.030 Mya.
 REMARKS: † Ilaria illumidens is represented by craniodental and associated postcranial elements of several individuals, while the slightly larger † I. lawsoni is known from a single partial right dentary only (Tedford and Woodburne, 1987). Both species are characterized by large size (estimated body mass of † Ilaria illumidens is ~ 215 kg; Beck et al., 2020) and several unusual craniodental features. The upper molars are strongly selenodont, while the lower molars are incipiently lophodont with prominent neomorphic cuspids present; Tedford and Woodburne (1987) identified the “central cuspid” between the metaconid and protoconid, and a second between the hypconid and entoconid, as neomorphic, but could not rule out the possibility that it is in fact the lingual cuspids (the putative “metaconid” and “entoconid”) are the neomorphs (Tedford and Woodburne, 1987: 415), and we have treated the homologies of these structures as unknown in this study. † Ilaria is also unusual in that the mandibular symphysis is fused, a feature otherwise seen only in a few other vombatiforms (see char. 97). Another ilariid, the much smaller (estimated body mass ~ 16 kg; Beck et al., 2020) † Kuterintja ngama, is known from the Ngama Local Fauna (Zone D of the Etadunna Formation; Pledge, 1987b; Woodburne et al., 1994) and the Riversleigh Faunal Zone A White Hunter Site (Myers and Archer, 1997), both of which are late Oligocene (see above); however, † K. ngama specimens is currently represented by fragmentary dental material only, and so has not been included here.

description: Quantum illumination is a quantum-optical sensing technique in which an entangled source is exploited to improve the detection of a low-reflectivity object that is immersed in a bright thermal background. Entangled sources between microwave and optical fields can be exploited to improve detection in microwave quantum illumination technique. We proposed a scheme to enhance the entanglement between the output fields of microwave and optical cavity by introducing optical parametric amplifier medium in cavity optomechanical system. We show that improving signal-to-noise ratio and decreasing error probability of detection can be obtained consequently even for objects with low reflectivity in the presence of optical parametric amplifier.

description: We experimentally show that the response of a quantum-chaotic system can display resonance lines sharper than the inverse of the excitation duration. This allows us to discriminate two neighboring frequencies with a resolution nearly 40 times better than the limit set by the Fourier inequality. Furthermore, numerical studies indicate that there is no limit, but the loss of signal, to this resolution, opening ways for the development of sub-Fourier quantum-chaotic signal processing.

description: For very large datasets, random projections (RP) have become the tool of choice for dimensionality reduction. This is due to the computational complexity of principal component analysis. However, the recent development of randomized principal component analysis (RPCA) has opened up the possibility of obtaining approximate principal components on very large datasets. In this paper, we compare the performance of RPCA and RP in dimensionality reduction for supervised learning. In Experiment 1, study a malware classification task on a dataset with over 10 million samples, almost 100,000 features, and over 25 billion non-zero values, with the goal of reducing the dimensionality to a compressed representation of 5,000 features. In order to apply RPCA to this dataset, we develop a new algorithm called large sample RPCA (LS-RPCA), which extends the RPCA algorithm to work on datasets with arbitrarily many samples. We find that classification performance is much higher when using LS-RPCA for dimensionality reduction than when using random projections. In particular, across a range of target dimensionalities, we find that using LS-RPCA reduces classification error by between 37% and 54%. Experiment 2 generalizes the phenomenon to multiple datasets, feature representations, and classifiers. These findings have implications for a large number of research projects in which random projections were used as a preprocessing step for dimensionality reduction. As long as accuracy is at a premium and the target dimensionality is sufficiently less than the numeric rank of the dataset, randomized PCA may be a superior choice. Moreover, if the dataset has a large number of samples, then LS-RPCA will provide a method for obtaining the approximate principal components.

description: Many school districts do not require science in the elementary school curriculum or place significantly more emphasis on the performance of students on the ELA and Math tests. With science education shifting to the Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), there is a critical need for high quality science instruction in elementary schools.  This study examines the experiences of 28 elementary teachers engaged in a science education professional development program that was comprised of 60 kindergarten through twelve grade teachers.  I examine the experiences of the 28 elementary teachers as they work in vertically aligned professional learning communities with middle and high school teachers. Findings in this study indicate that the model provides a supportive environment for elementary teachers to grow and develop both personally and professionally in their science teaching practice. Evidence is presented that shows how a learning community of elementary, middle and high school teachers can provide an opportunity for elementary teachers to socially construct knowledge of how to best support student success in science.  Additionally, the findings show that elementary teachers are able to socially construct knowledge about effective teaching practices in science that support core science teaching practices.  The findings also indicate that the nature of these learning communities also provided many structures that can support increased efficacy amongst elementary science teachers.  Finally, the experiences of elementary teachers engaged in his study were overwhelmingly positive, leading to increased trust and respect amongst peers and improved confidence and motivation to teach science at the elementary level.

description: In this paper, the suggested similarity between micro and macro-cosmos is extended to quantum behavior, postulating that quantum mechanics, like general relativity and classical electrodynamics, is invariant under discrete scale transformations. This hypothesis leads to a large scale quantization of angular momenta. Using the scale factor $Λ\sim 10^{38}$, the corresponding quantum of action, obtained by scaling the Planck constant, is close to the Kerr limit for the spin of the universe -- when this is considered as a huge rotating black-hole -- and to the spin of Godel's universe, solution of Einstein equations of gravitation. Besides, we suggest the existence of another, intermediate, scale invariance, with scale factor $λ\sim 10^{19}$. With this factor we obtain, from Fermi's scale, the values for the gravitational radius and for the collapse proper-time of a typical black-hole, besides the Kerr limit value for its spin. It is shown that the mass-spin relations implied by the two referred scale transformations are in accordance with Muradian's Regge-like relations for galaxy clusters and stars. Impressive results are derived when we use a $λ$-scaled quantum approach to calculate the mean radii of planetary orbits in solar system. Finally, a possible explanation for the observed quantization of galactic redshifts is suggested, based on the large scale quantization conjecture.

description: When a posterior peaks in unexpected regions of parameter space, new physics has either been discovered, or a bias has not been identified yet. To tell these two cases apart is of paramount importance. We therefore present a method to indicate and mitigate unrecognized biases: Our method runs any pipeline with possibly unknown biases on both simulations and real data. It computes the coverage probability of posteriors, which measures whether posterior volume is a faithful representation of probability or not. If found to be necessary, the posterior is then corrected. This is a non-parametric debiasing procedure which complies with objective Bayesian inference. We use the method to debias inference with approximate covariance matrices and redshift uncertainties. We demonstrate why approximate covariance matrices bias physical constraints, and how this bias can be mitigated. We show that for a Euclid-like survey, if a traditional likelihood exists, then 25 end-to-end simulations suffice to guarantee that the figure of merit deteriorates maximally by 22 percent, or by 10 percent for 225 simulations. Thus, even a pessimistic analysis of Euclid-like data will still constitute an 25-fold increase in precision on the dark energy parameters in comparison to the state of the art (2018) set by KiDS and DES. We provide a public code of our method.
