description: Utilizing a full microscopic Bogoliubov-de Gennes (BdG) approach, we study the equilibrium charge and spin currents in ballistic $SFSFS$ Josephson systems, where $F$ is a uniformly magnetized ferromagnet and $S$ is a conventional $s$-wave superconductor. From the spatially varying spin currents, we also calculate the associated equilibrium spin transfer torques. Through variations in the relative phase differences between the three $S$ regions, and magnetization orientations of the ferromagnets, our study demonstrates tunability and controllability of the spin and charge supercurrents. The spin transfer torques are shown to reveal details of the proximity effects that play a crucial role in these types of hybrid systems. The proposed $SFSFS$ nanostructure is discussed within the context of a superconducting magnetic torque transistor.
Sexual differentiation and karyological study in the gonochoristic planarian Sabussowia dioica (Platyhelminthes, Tricladida)

description: The marine planarian Sabussowia dioica is the only gonochoristic triclad known until now. All the other
 turbellaria are hermaphroditic free living worms. It has been questioned whether it may be a real gonochorist or a successive
 hermaphroditic species. To answer this question, we undertook the first study of sex differentiation during post-embryonic
 development. The histological examination of young specimens allowed to obtain information on the modalities of sexual
 differentiation for male and female lines respectively. Results obtained showed that in the first step, the gonads appear like
 clusters of large cells, the neoblasts, which evolve respectively in ovaria and vitellaria for females and in testes for males.
 The copulatory apparatus is formed after gonads. Finally, gonoducts were seen. Thus, young individuals develop directly a
 male or a female reproductive apparatus without any trace of the opposite sex organs. Furthermore, since the chromosome
 complement in S. dioica has not yet been studied and the sex determination factors of this species are still unknown, we
 undertook a karyological work aimed to ascertain the presence of sex chromosomes. The examination of metaphasic plates,
 with 2n = 14, did not reveal any difference between the two sexes.

description: We show that a decapod crustacean, the sand bubbler crab (SBC) Scopimera globosa, uses suction, which is the tension of moisture in the sediment, to select habitats at normal times and at the time of disaster events, through a range of controlled laboratory experiments and field observations at various sandflats in Japan. When SBCs are released on fields with no spatial suction gradient, their direction of movement is random. However, the situation clearly changes with increasing suction gradients, in which case the SBCs move to suitable zones for burrowing. Predictions based on suction–burrowing relationships coupled with the knowledge of geophysical state changes induced by suction dynamics are consistent with the observed formation of habitats throughout the seasons. Such suction-induced habitat selection in SBCs manifests itself in a robust way even following sudden events such as typhoons, where erosion and deposition processes distinctly alter the geomorphological profiles, as well as the states of suction, yet consistently yielding habitats at the newly formed, suitable suction environments. Repeated battles were observed in a suitable suction environment over burrows, with the competition rate more than seven times as high as that in a critical suction environment for burrowing.

description: This study focuses on the diet of the eel Anguilla anguilla, sampled during one month of each of the four seasons
 from autumn 1998 to summer 1999 in the Languedocian Ingril Lagoon (Gulf of Lion). The following feeding indices were
 calculated based on observations of 11 categories of prey found in the contents of full stomachs: coefficient of vacuity (CV),
 degree of fullness (DR), occurrence frequency (PP, in %), relative abundance (N, in %) and relative weight (P, in %). A
 parallel monitoring of the benthic macrofauna was conducted in autumn and spring. The interpretation of the results is
 based on the degree III of the scale of confinement established by Guélorget & Perthuisot (1983) and on the Costello et al.
 (1990) method, which combines PP and N. A. anguilla mainly feeds on benthic organisms, primarily amphipods
 crustaceans, polychaetes, insect larvae and small fish. The eel's feeding activity is very low in November and February and
 usually increases during May. The trophic quality available to the eel population in the Ingril Lagoon depends on its hydro-
 dynamic variables, which are directly related to its close communication with the sea. Changes observed in the eel's diet
 over this year long study illustrate an opportunist type of feeding behaviour that reflects the typical composition of the
 macroinvertebrate species assemblage at a given point in time. Eels consume the type of benthic prey that is most available
 at a given moment without using a particular feeding strategy (e.g., specialisation or generalisation). The eels adapt by
 shifting their diet according to the energetic resources available in the ecosystem, which vary depending on hydrological
 regime. Thus, the facultative catadromous migrant species Anguilla anguilla could be used as a bioindicator of changes in
 the biological zonation and in the available food resources in the brackish ecosystem of Ingril Lagoon during its lagoon-
 resident ecophase.

description: Karenia selliformis strain GM94GAB was isolated in 1994 from the north of Sfax, Gabès gulf, Tunisia. This
 species, which produces gymnodimine (GYM) a cyclic imine, has since been responsible for chronic contamination of
 Tunisian clams. A study was made by culturing the microalgae on enriched Guillard f/2 medium. The influence of growing
 conditions on toxin content was studied, examining the effects of (i) different culture volumes (0.25 to 40 litre flasks), (ii)
 two temperature ranges (17-15°C et 20-21°C) and (iii) two salinities (36 and 44). Chemical analyses were made by mass
 spectrometry coupled with liquid chromatography (LC-MS/MS). Results showed that (i) the highest growth rate (0.34 ±
 0.14 div d-1) was obtained at 20°C and a salinity of 36, (ii) GYM content expressed as pg eq GYM cell-1 increased with
 culture time. The neurotoxicity of K. selliformis extracts was confirmed by mouse bioassay. This study allowed us to cal-
 culate the minimal lethal dose (MLD) of gymnodimine (GYM) that kills a mouse, as a function of the number of K.

description: We present a method to estimate distances to stars with spectroscopically derived stellar parameters. The technique is a Bayesian approach with likelihood estimated via comparison of measured parameters to a grid of stellar isochrones, and returns a posterior probability density function for each star's absolute magnitude. This technique is tailored specifically to data from the Large Sky Area Multi-object Fiber Spectroscopic Telescope (LAMOST) survey. Because LAMOST obtains roughly 3000 stellar spectra simultaneously within each ~5-degree diameter "plate" that is observed, we can use the stellar parameters of the observed stars to account for the stellar luminosity function and target selection effects. This removes biasing assumptions about the underlying populations, both due to predictions of the luminosity function from stellar evolution modeling, and from Galactic models of stellar populations along each line of sight. Using calibration data of stars with known distances and stellar parameters, we show that our method recovers distances for most stars within ~20%, but with some systematic overestimation of distances to halo giants. We apply our code to the LAMOST database, and show that the current precision of LAMOST stellar parameters permits measurements of distances with ~40% error bars. This precision should improve as the LAMOST data pipelines continue to be refined.

description: Wood falls are organic substrates sunken on the ocean floor that house a diversified fauna of marine
 invertebrates. Among them, the echinoid Asterechinus elegans is found in various localities from the West-Pacific region
 and observations of its gut content indicate that it is a wood-feeding species. The diversity of the microflora associated with
 its gut content was investigated by 16S rRNA gene cloning analysis and identified Proteobacteria, Planctomycete,
 Firmicutes, Cytophaga-Flexibacter-Bacteroides and Actinobacteria. Clones were related to bacteria from the gut of
 phytophageous (including wood-feeding) animals but also from sulphide-rich environments such as whale carcasses,
 mangrove soils and marine sediments of notably hydrothermal vents and cold seeps. Furthermore, the analysis of the
 adenosine 5'-phosphosulphate (APS) reductase gene put in evidence the presence of several sulphide-oxidizing bacteria
 (SOB) belonging to the Alpha- and Gamma-proteobacteria while some sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRB) affiliated to the
 Delta-proteobacteria were also detected. APS reductase clones were related to thioautotrophic symbionts of various marine
 invertebrates including tube worms and gutless oligochaetes. These results suggest that a part of the bacterial community
 associated with the gut content of A. elegans would be able to participate in the wood digestion and therefore to the echinoid
 nourishment. Further analyses are however needed to clarify several aspects of this association.

Mapping the spread of invasive cane toads (Rhinella marina) in southern Australia

Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: By fatally poisoning apex predators, invasive cane toads (Rhinella marina) have modified ecosystems across much of Australia. Most research on their invasion has been conducted in the tropics, with the southern front of their range expansion largely overlooked. To address that knowledge gap, I assembled multiple datasets to characterise the historical spread of toads through north-eastern New South Wales in order to clarify factors that might influence routes and rates of dispersal. My pilot studies at the range edge suggest that visual and acoustic surveys are as effective as eDNA-based surveys. Expansion of the toads’ range in NSW has occurred through the establishment of satellite populations and through growth of the range core. Overall rates of spread have been far lower than on the tropical front, and in some decades the area occupied by toads appears to have declined rather than expanded. Rates of spread have accelerated to the south, but westward expansion has slowed. Toad range expanded most rapidly in decades with dry, warm weather conditions, suggesting that predicted future changes to climate could increase or decrease rates of toad spread. Understanding the historical patterns of toad invasion in NSW may clarify priority areas for monitoring and control programs.

description: Cosmological alpha-attractors give a natural explanation for the spectral index n_s of inflation as measured by Planck while predicting a range for the tensor-to-scalar ratio r, consistent with all observations, to be measured more precisely in future detection of gravity waves. Their embedding into supergravity exploits the hyperbolic geometry of the Poincare disk or half-plane. These geometries are isometric under Mobius transformations, which include the shift symmetry of the inflaton field. We introduce a new Kahler potential frame that explicitly preserves this symmetry, enabling the inflaton to be light. Moreover, we include higher-order curvature deformations, which can stabilize a direction orthogonal to the inflationary trajectory. We illustrate this new framework by stabilizing the single superfield alpha-attractors.

 copepodologist Eugène Canu in 1888. It brings up-to-date the list carried out by Glaçon (1975). A total of 35 species are
 listed here, some of which have to this day rarely been seen. The copepod diversity in the Eastern English Channel is on
 the whole relatively low. The meroplanktonic form «Saphirella» (Scott, 1894) found in the Eastern English Channel and in
 the South of the North Sea and Eurytemora americana (Williams, 1906) found in the Dunkirk harbour are mentioned and
 described. Brief notes are given on ecological preferences of each species and their relative abundance.

description: We discuss the effects of open boundary conditions and boundary induced drift on condensation phenomena in the pair-factorized steady states transport process, a versatile model for stochastic transport with tunable nearest-neighbour interactions. Varying the specific type of the boundary implementation as well as the presence of a particle drift, we observe phase diagrams that are similar but richer compared to those of the simpler zero-range process with open boundary conditions. Tuning our model towards zero-range-process-like properties we are able to study boundary induced effects in the transition regime from zero-range interactions to short-range interactions. We discuss the emerging phase structure where spatially extended condensates can be observed at the boundaries as well as in the bulk system and compare it to the situation with periodic boundaries, where the dynamics leads to the formation of a single condensate in the bulk.

 islands and islets of volcanic origin. An update of the checklist of the benthic cnidarians from some of the archipelago's
 reef environments, as well as a study of their corals and calcified hydroids morphometry, was the major goal of this work.
 Fieldwork was undertaken in February 2005 and in April 2006 and observations were carried out at 13 stations during
 snorkeling and/or scuba diving up to 30 m deep. Thirty-four species of cnidarians were recorded, of which 17 are new
 occurrences for the studied area. When added to the species previously listed in the literature, the total number of benthic
 cnidarians recorded for the Archipelago increases to 57. Stephanocoenia michelini, a new occurrence of zooxanthellate
 coral, is worthy of mention, as well as the calcified hydroid Millepora braziliensis. Mussismilia hispida tenuisepta showed
 several variations among its skeletal characters that surpassed the limits of intraspecific morphological variation when
 compared to those of Mussismilia hispida.

description: We present a theoretical approach to study the effect of microwave radiation on the magnetoresistance of a one-dimensional superlattice. In our proposal the magnetoresistance of a unidirectional spatial periodic potential (superlattice), is modulated by microwave radiation due to an interference effect between both, space and time-dependent potentials. The final magnetoresistance will mainly depend on the spatial period of the superlattice and the radiation frequency. %Then, by tuning either the spatial period of the superlattice or the radiation %frequency, the magnetoresistance can be strongly modified. We consider an approach to study these effects based on the fast Fourier transform of the obtained magnetorresistance profiles in function of the inverse of the magnetic field. Based on this theory we propose the design of a novel radiation sensor for the Terahertz band.} % We first study the FFT of the system for each potential individually. Then we study jointly the FFT of the system when the two types of potentials are simultaneously acting.

description: The suprabenthic fauna of a station located in the outer part of the estuary of the Seine (Eastern English Channel) was sampled with a modified Macer-GIROQ suprabenthic sledge. Thirty-eight hauls were collected in two series of hourly sampling; they provided a first quantitative description of the suprabenthic crustacean fauna from this area. Species composition of the fauna, swimming activities and diurnal vertical migrations of the main species were studied. A total of forty-six crustacean species were collected. Mysids and cumaceans were the most abundant species of the fauna. The dominant species were Schistomysis kervillei, Mesopodopsis slabberi, Diastylis bradyi and Pseudocuma longicornis. All principal species of the fauna regularly performed a nocturnal vertical migration.

On the tidal radius of satellites on prograde and retrograde orbits

description: A tidal radius is a distance from a satellite orbiting in a host potential beyond which its material is stripped by the tidal force. We derive a revised expression for the tidal radius of a rotating satellite which properly takes into account the possibility of prograde and retrograde orbits of stars. Besides the eccentricity of the satellite orbit, the tidal radius depends also on the ratio of the satellite internal angular velocity to the orbital angular velocity. We compare our formula to the results of two $N$-body simulations of dwarf galaxies orbiting a Milky Way-like host on a prograde and retrograde orbit. The tidal radius for the retrograde case is larger than for the prograde. We introduce a kinematic radius separating stars still orbiting the dwarf galaxy from those already stripped and following the potential of the host galaxy. We find that the tidal radius matches very well the kinematic radius. Our results provide a connection between the formalism of the tidal radius derivation and the theory of resonant stripping.

description: Severe asthma is heterogeneous, with childhood-onset asthma believed more likely to be allergic, whereas adult-onset asthma is considered typically non-allergic. However, the allergic diagnosis is typically by exclusion: if patients do not react to an allergen panel, which is not standardized and often limited to few allergens, they are considered non-allergic. The overall aim of the ATLAS study was to characterize the sensitization to allergens in severe asthma (independent of phenotype). Single-visit, cross-sectional, non-interventional study in adults with severe asthma. Analyses were conducted for total and specific immunoglobulin E against 53 allergens, overall and in subgroups, including age at asthma onset (<20 [childhood-onset] and >40 years of age). Among 1010 recruited patients, 28.4% reported childhood-onset asthma and 33.6% onset >40 years of age. After excluding patients receiving omalizumab/anti-IL5 therapy, 27.6% were not sensitized to any tested allergens, whereas 19.1% were sensitized to >10 allergens. All allergens triggered sensitization in some patients. Baseline characteristics in the two onset subgroups were similar; 23.2% with childhood-onset asthma were not sensitized to any allergen, compared to 32.0% with onset >40 years of age. When a broad panel of allergens is used for sensitization testing, as many as three quarters of patients with severe asthma display sensitivity to at least one allergen, with substantial overlaps in all characteristics between the two age-at-onset subgroups. All of the tested allergens triggered a response in at least some patients, emphasizing the importance of including a broad range of allergens in any testing panel.
Triander: A new program for visual analysis of nucleotide sequences

description: The Triander program is an interactive software package for nucleotide sequence visualization. The program was developed using the freeware Pascal RAD IDE Lazarus, and its source code and binaries compiled for Windows are freely accessible at http://www.icbge.org.ua/eng/Triander . Triander can produce four types of plots. It is possible to build three DNA walks independently for each nucleotide position in triplets. The use of nucleotide vectors with unequal modulus leads to a significant reduction in the visual information lost in DNA walks. The program can be used in the investigation of the fine structure of sequences, to find standard patterns in them and to locate nontrivial regions for further detailed analysis.

description: Pediatric asthma home visiting programs have improved clinical outcomes, but little is known about how providers perceive these programs. The purpose of this study was to understand how primary care providers and their colleagues in a medical home perceive an asthma home visiting program that is available at no cost to their patients. After several years of running an asthma home visiting program using community health workers (CHW) in 10 pediatric primary care offices in the South Coast of Massachusetts, we surveyed the providers of patients who had enrolled in the program. An anonymous online survey was developed by the program leaders, the program analytics team, and the CHWs for quality improvement purposes. Survey domains included the perceived utility of various aspects of the program, impact on patients, and interaction with CHWs, as well as demographic information about the providers. Of the 24 providers asked to complete the survey from eight primary care practices, 21 completed the survey (88%). Respondents perceived that the most beneficial aspects were environmental assessment (95%), asthma education (91%), and addressing environmental issues (86%). In addition to numerous positive free-text responses, suggestions for improvement were in the areas of referral completion, post-visit communication, and patient identification in the medical record. All respondents would continue to refer to the program. Primary care providers and medical home staff perceived an asthma home visiting program to have high utility, particularly the environmental assessment, asthma education, and mitigation of environmental issues. Additional opportunities for improvement were identified.
STRUCTURE OF A HERMIT-CRAB POPULATION, CESTOPAGURUS-TIMIDUS (CRUSTACEA, DECAPODA, ANOMURA) IN THE POSIDONIA-OCEANICA BEDS OF SOUTHEASTERN SPAIN

description: A population of the hermit crab Cestopagurus timidus from Posidonia oceanica meadow of SE Spain has been studied. The results show a large egg-laying period, with two maximum (in May and August-September respectively) and a recruitment two months after. The lifetime of the species is about 21 months, and during the year, 3-4 cohorts (2 for each year) coexist. This longevity and the slow growth of the specimens justify the small size of the species.
