Our preliminary studies show that it is possible to minimize backgrounds to a significantly low level and conservative estimate suggests that the mass reach can be extended to $\sim$ 1.1 TeV for luminosity 1/fb with a reasonable signal-to-background ratio.

description: Selective attention to particular aspects of incoming sensory information is enabled by a network of neural areas that includes frontal cortex, posterior parietal cortex, and, in the visual domain, visual sensory regions. Although progress has been made in understanding the relative contribution of these different regions to the process of visual attentional selection, primarily through studies using neuroimaging, rather little is known about the temporal relationships between these disparate regions. To examine this, participants viewed two rapid serial visual presentation (RSVP) streams of letters positioned to the left and right of fixation point. Before each run, attention was directed to either the left or the right stream. Occasionally, a digit appeared within the attended stream indicating whether attention was to be maintained within the same stream (‘hold’ condition) or to be shifted to the previously ignored stream (‘shift’ condition). By titrating the temporal parameters of the time taken to shift attention for each participant using a fine-grained psychophysics paradigm, we measured event-related potentials time-locked to the initiation of spatial shifts of attention. The results revealed that shifts of attention were evident earlier in the response recorded over frontal than over parietal electrodes and, importantly, that the early activity over frontal electrodes was associated with a successful shift of attention. We conclude that frontal areas are engaged early for the purpose of executing an attentional shift, likely triggering a cascade through the fronto-parietal network ultimately, resulting in the attentional modulation of sensory events in posterior cortices.

description: Publicly available health data are essential for digital health research, from machine learning models to data-driven mathematical models. Glioma is the most common malignant intracranial tumor, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a widely used modality for its diagnosis and treatment. However, the availability and quality of public datasets for Glioma MRI are not well known. In this review, we searched for public datasets for Glioma MRI using Google Dataset Search, The Cancer Imaging Archive (TCIA) and Synapse. We found 26 datasets published between 2005 and 2023, containing 52542 images from 5333 patients. We analyzed the characteristics of these datasets, such as the origin, size, format, annotation, and accessibility. We also examined the distribution of tumor types, grades, and stages among the datasets. We discuss how the WHO classification evolution affects research and highlights research questions that can be addressed using these datasets. Finally, we discussed research questions that some datasets may be capable of addressing, such us tumor evolution through malignant transformation, MRI normalisation, and tumor segmentation. Within the analysed datasets, only one follows the latest WHO classification with histopathological and molecular proof. This review aims to offer a comprehensive overview of the currently available public datasets for Glioma MRI, underscoring the challenges and opportunities for future research endeavors.
Upper and lower estimates for numerical integration errors on spheres of arbitrary dimension

description: In this paper we study the worst-case error of numerical integration on the unit sphere $\mathbb{S}^{d}\subset\mathbb{R}^{d+1}$, $d\geq2$, for certain spaces of continuous functions on $\mathbb{S}^{d}$. For the classical Sobolev spaces $\mathbb{H}^s(\mathbb{S}^d)$ ($s>\frac d2$) upper and lower bounds for the worst case integration error have been obtained By Brauchart, Hesse, and Sloan earlier in papers. We investigate the behaviour for $s\to\frac d2$ by introducing spaces $\mathbb{H}^{\frac d2,γ}(\mathbb{S}^d)$ with an extra logarithmic weight. For these spaces we obtain similar upper and lower bounds for the worst case integration error.

description: In this paper, we examine the large and expanding area of Environmental Justice (EJ). The research in this area has developed from examining relatively simple comparisons of current demographic characteristics near environmental nuisances to performing multiple regression analysis and considering demographics at the time of siting. One area that has received considerably less attention is the identification of potential mechanisms that could be driving observed EJ correlations. We extend the current literature by examining one possible mechanism: the intensity of regulatory enforcement activity. If regulators pay less attention to the environmental performance of plants located near poor and minority areas, those plants might feel less pressure to pursue pollution abatement projects, increasing environmental hazards in those areas. We perform our analysis on a sample of manufacturing plants located near four large U.S. cities: Los Angeles, Boston, Columbus, and Houston. Our analysis of regulatory activity found little evidence that demographic variables have a significant impact on the allocation of regulatory activity. In particular, regulatory activity does not seem to be less intense in plants located near particular demographic groups. It is true that plants located in minority neighborhoods are inspected less often and face fewer enforcement actions, but these effects are nearly always small and insignificant, and plants located in lower-income areas seem to face (surprisingly) more regulatory activity. In a separate analysis, we also find very little evidence that demographic variables significantly influence pollution emissions. . In summary, the results presented here do not show much evidence to support EJ concerns about either regulatory activity or pollution emissions, at least within the set of plants, pollutants, and time periods covered in our analysis.

The fine tuning problem in connection with the scalar mass however is shown to reappear in a new guise in five dimensional warped model when the two form antisymmetric tensor fields, a massless string mode, propagates in the bulk. Finally the issue of modulus stabilization is re-examined in presence of a bulk scalar by considering it's back-reaction on the background geometry. The role of higher derivative term of the bulk scalar is shown to be crucial to achieve modulus stabilization.

In some cases the breaking of $CP$ saturates an 't Hooft anomaly, and anomaly inflow requires nontrivial massless excitations on the domain walls. Analogously, $CP$ can be spontaneously broken in supersymmetric QCD with light flavors and small soft breaking parameters. We study $CP$ breaking and domain walls in softly broken SQCD with $N_f

We establish a link between the infinitesimal action of GL_2(Q_p) on the locally analytic vectors of Pi, the differential equation associated to V via the theory of Fontaine and Berger, and the Sen polynomial of V. This answers a question of Harris and gives a new proof of a theorem of Colmez: Pi has nonzero locally algebraic vectors if and only if V is potentially semi-stable with distinct Hodge-Tate weights.

description: Over the past decade, exciton-polaritons in semiconductor microcavities have attracted a great deal of interest as a driven-dissipative quantum fluid. These systems offer themselves as a versatile platform for performing Hamiltonian simulations with light, as well as for experimentally realizing nontrivial out-of-equilibrium phase transitions. In addition, polaritons exhibit a sizeable mutual interaction strength that opens up a whole range of possibilities in the context of quantum state generation. While squeezed light emission from polaritons has been reported previously, the granular nature of polaritons has not been observed to date. The latter capability is particularly attractive for realizing strongly correlated many-body quantum states of light on scalable arrays of coupled cavities. Here we demonstrate that by optically confining polaritons to a very small effective mode volume, one can reach the weak blockade regime, in which the nonlinearity turns strong enough to become significant at the few particle level, and thus produce a non-negligible antibunching in the emitted photons statistics. Our results act as a door opener for accessing the newly emerging field of quantum polaritonics, and as a proof of principle that optically confined exciton-polaritons can be considered as a realistic, new strategy to generate single photons.

The differential rotation of epsilon Eri from MOST data

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: From high-precision MOST photometry spanning 35 days the existence of two spots rotating with slightly differing periods is confirmed. From the marginal probability distribution of the derived differential rotation parameter k its expectation value as well as confidence limits are computed directly from the data. The result depends on the assumed range in inclination i, not on the shape of the prior distributions. Two cases have been considered: (a) The priors for angles, inclination i of the star and spot latitudes beta_1,2, are assumed to be constant over i, beta_1, and beta_2. (b) The priors are assumed to be constant over cosi, sin beta_1, and sin beta_2. In both cases the full range of inclination is considered: 0^o< = i< = 90^o. Scale-free parameters, i.e. periods and spot areas (in case of small spots) are taken logarithmically. Irrespective of the shape of the prior, k is restricted to 0.03 < = k < = 0.10 (one-sigma limits). The inclination i of the star is photometrically ill-defined.

description: Studies of object-based attention have demonstrated poorer performance in dividing attention between two objects in a scene than in focusing attention on a single object. However, objects often are composed of several parts, and parts are central to theories of object recognition. Are parts also important for visual attention? That is, can attention be limited in the number of parts processed simultaneously? We addressed this question in four experiments. In Experiments 1 and 2, participants reported two attributes that appeared on the same part or on different parts of a single multipart object. Participants were more accurate in reporting the attributes on the same part than attributes on different parts. This part-based effect was not influenced by the spatial distance between the parts, ruling out a simple spatial attention interpretation of our results. A control study demonstrated that our spatial manipulation was sufficient to observe shifts of spatial attention. This study revealed an effect of spatial distance, indicating that our spatial manipulation was adequate for observing spatial attention. The absence of a distance effect in Experiments 1 and 2 suggests that part-based attention may not rely entirely on simple shifts of spatial attention. Finally, in Experiment 4 we found evidence for part-based attention, using stimuli controlled for the distance between the parts of an object. The results of these experiments indicate that visual attention can selectively process the parts of an object. We discuss the relationship between parts and objects and the locus of part-based attentional selection.
D-mesons and charmonium states in hot isospin asymmetric strange hadronic matter

description: We study the properties of $D$ and $\bar{D}$ mesons in hot isospin asymmetric strange hadronic matter, arising due to their interactions with the hadrons in the hyperonic medium. The interactions of $D$ and $\bar{D}$ mesons with these light hadrons are derived by generalizing the chiral SU(3) model used for the study of hyperonic matter to SU(4). We also study the mass modifications of the charmonium states $J/ψ$, $ψ(3686)$ and $ψ(3770)$ in the isospin asymmetric strange hadronic matter at finite temperatures and investigate the possibility of the decay of the charmonium states into $D\bar D$ pairs in the hot hadronic medium. The mass modifications of these charmonium states arise due to their interaction with the gluon condensates of QCD, simulated by a scalar dilaton field introduced to incorporate the broken scale invariance of QCD within the effective chiral model. We also compute the partial decay widths of the charmonium states to the $D\bar {D}$ pairs in the hadronic medium. The strong dependence on density of the in-medium properties of the $D$, $\bar{D}$ and the charmonium states, as well as the partial decay widths of charmonium states to $D\bar {D}$ pairs, found in the present investigation, will be of direct relevance in observables like open charm enhancement as well as $J/ψ$ suppression in the compressed baryonic matter (CBM) experiments at the future Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research, GSI, where the baryonic matter at high densities is planned to be produced.

Competition is a determinant of multidrug resistant plasmid acquisition in Salmonella
Creators: name: Oladeinde, Adelumola
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021

description: Host microbiome homeostasis ensures that gut conditions are unfavorable to an invading pathogen such as Salmonella enterica. Consequently, fostering a "balanced" gut microbiome through the administration of microbes that can competitively exclude pathogens has gained a lot of attention and use in human and animal medicine. However, little is known on how competitive exclusion affects the transfer of antibiotic resistance. To shed more light on this question, we challenged neonatal broiler chicks raised on reused broiler chicken litter – a complex environment comprising of decomposing pine shavings, feces, uric acid, feathers, and feed, with Salmonella Heidelberg (S. Heidelberg), a model pathogen. We show that chicks raised on reused litter carried lower abundance of Salmonella and harbored a more uniform and diverse microbiome comprising of bacterial species that are known to provide colonization resistance towards Salmonella compared to chicks raised on fresh bedding composed of pine shavings. Additionally, these bacterial species were associated with a lower horizontal transfer of multidrug resistance genes to S. Heidelberg. Using in vitro competition experiments, we confirmed that conjugation between S. Heidelberg and E. coli strains from chicks raised on fresh litter resulted in the acquisition of multidrug resistant plasmids. Contrastingly, bacteriophage-mediated recombination between S. Heidelberg and E. coli strains made the acquisition of plasmid-mediated β-lactamase gene (blaCMY-2) possible. Collectively, this study demonstrates that competitive exclusion can reduce the transfer of antibiotic resistance and provides information on the bacterial species that can be explored for their benefits to reduce antibiotic resistance transfer.

description: We consider a multivariate density model where we estimate the excess mass of the unknown probability density $f$ at a given level $ν>0$ from $n$ i.i.d. observed random variables. This problem has several applications such as multimodality testing, density contour clustering, anomaly detection, classification and so on. For the first time in the literature we estimate the excess mass as an integrated functional of the unknown density $f$. We suggest an estimator and evaluate its rate of convergence, when $f$ belongs to general Besov smoothness classes, for several risk measures. A particular care is devoted to implementation and numerical study of the studied procedure. It appears that our procedure improves the plug-in estimator of the excess mass.

description: We report first-principles simulation of polarization mechanisms in hydroxyapatite to explain the underlying mechanism behind the reported ion conductivities and polarization under electrical poling at elevated temperatures. It is found that ion conduction occurs mainly in the column of OH$^-$ ions along the $c$-axis through a combination of the flipping of OH$^-$ ions, exchange of proton vacancies between OH$^-$ ions, and the hopping of the OH$^-$ vacancy. The calculated activation energies are consistent with those found in conductivity measurements and thermally stimulated depolarization current measurements.

We derive an expression for the information loss depending on the input density and the nonlinearity and show that the result is strongly related to the non-injectivity of the considered system. Tight upper bounds are presented, which can be evaluated with less difficulty than a direct evaluation of the information loss, which involves the logarithm of a sum. Application of our results is illustrated on a set of examples.

description: This study examined the extent to which perceptions of partner suffering mediate the association between attachment insecurity (anxiety and avoidance) and personal distress among spouses of older adults with osteoarthritis. Fifty-three spouses watched two videos of targets (their partner and an opposite sex stranger) perform a pain-eliciting household task, and spouses were asked to rate their own distress and perceptions of the targets' pain. Spouses also completed self-report measures of trait attachment. Results revealed that attachment anxiety was associated with greater personal distress in reaction to the partner's suffering, and heightened perceptions of partner pain mediated this association. Avoidant attachment was associated with less distress in reaction to the partner's suffering, but not with less perceived pain. The results of this study identify an important mechanism linking attachment insecurity and heightened distress responses when observing the suffering of a significant other.

description: We describe the Wise Observatory Optical Transient Search (WOOTS), a survey for supernovae (SNe) and other variable and transient objects in the fields of redshift 0.06-0.2 Abell galaxy clusters. We present the survey design and data-analysis procedures, and our object detection and follow-up strategies. We have obtained follow-up spectroscopy for all viable SN candidates, and present the resulting SN sample here. Out of the 12 SNe we have discovered, seven are associated with our target clusters while five are foreground or background field events. All but one of the SNe (a foreground field event) are Type Ia SNe. Our non-cluster SN sample is uniquely complete, since all SN candidates have been either spectroscopically confirmed or ruled out. This allows us to estimate that flux-limited surveys similar to WOOTS would be dominated (~80%) by SNe Ia. Our spectroscopic follow-up observations also elucidate the difficulty in distinguishing active galactic nuclei from SNe. In separate papers we use the WOOTS sample to derive the SN rate in clusters for this redshift range, and to measure the fraction of intergalactic cluster SNe. We also briefly report here on some quasars and asteroids discovered by WOOTS.

description: Maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) exercises are commonly employed for normalizing electromyography (EMG) data to enable comparisons between different individuals and muscles. The purpose of this research was to test various recommended MVC exercises for two commonly investigated back muscles in ergonomics and, based on EMG results, determine the most appropriate exercise for each muscle. Through a preliminary review, these two muscles were identified as the lumbar erector spinae (LES) and thoracic erector spinae (TES). Fifteen healthy male participants were recruited. Five different recommended MVC exercises were performed for both muscles, including declined trunk extension, prone trunk extension, standing trunk extension, hip extension, and the arch test. Results showed that no single exercise was capable of eliciting the highest EMG amplitude in all the participants. The largest EMG average was reported using hip extension for the LES and prone trunk extension for the TES; however, no statistically significant differences were detected between them and other exercises, apart from declined trunk extension. Overall, the arch test showed the most favorable results for both the LES and TES, in that it: had a high EMG average; was the most consistent to elicit the highest EMG amplitude in participants; and had relatively low variability.

description: We study the productions of charmed baryons ${\bar Λ}_c^- Λ_c^+$, ${\bar Λ}_c^- Σ_c^+$, and ${\bar Σ}^- Σ_c^+$ in the antiproton-proton collisions within an effective Lagrangian model that has only the baryon-meson degrees of freedom and involves the physical hadron masses. The baryon production proceeds via the $t$-channel exchanges of $D^0$ and $D^{*0}$ mesons in the initial collision of the antiproton with the target proton. The distortion effects in the initial and final states are accounted for by using an eikonal approximation-based procedure. We find that the reaction amplitudes of all the production channels are dominated by the $D^{*0}$ meson-exchange diagrams. We discuss the relative roles of tensor and vector components of the $D^{*0}$ coupling in the $D^{*0}$ meson-exchange component of the total production cross sections. The magnitudes of the cross sections are predicted for each final state for the range of beam momenta of relevance to the ${\bar P}ANDA$ experiment.

description: Previouly a possible extension of the complex number, together with its connected trigonometry was introduced. In this paper we focuss on the simplest case of ternary complex numbers. Then, some types of holomorphicity adapted to the ternary complex numbers and the corresponding results upon integration of differential forms are given. Several physical applications are given, and in particuler one type of holomorphic function gives rise to a new form of stationary magnetic field. The movement of a monopole type object in this field is then studied and shown to be integrable. The monopole scattering in the ternary field is finally studied.

description: Results from BVRI photometric observations of the young stellar object V2492 Cyg collected during the period from August 2010 to December 2017 are presented. The star is located in the field of the Pelican Nebula and it was discovered in 2010 due to its remarkable increase in the brightness by more than 5 mag in R-band. According to the first hypothesis of the variability V2492 Cyg is an FUor candidate. During subsequent observations it was reported that the star shows the characteristics inherent to EXor- and UXor-type variables. The optical data show that during the whole time of observations the star exhibits multiple large amplitude increases and drops in the brightness. In the beginning of 2017 we registered a significant increase in the optical brightness of V2492 Cyg, which seriously exceeds the maximal magnitudes registered after 2010.

description: The structure and function of the arcuate fascicle is still controversial. The goal of this study was to investigate the asymmetry, connectivity, and segmentation patterns of the arcuate fascicle. We employed diffusion spectrum imaging reconstructed by generalized q-sampling and we applied both a subject-specific approach (10 subjects) and a template approach (q-space diffeomorphic reconstruction of 30 subjects). We complemented our imaging investigation with fiber microdissection of five post-mortem human brains. Our results confirmed the highly leftward asymmetry of the arcuate fascicle. In the template, the left arcuate had a volume twice as large as the right one, and the left superior temporal gyrus provided five times more volume of fibers than its counterpart. We identified four cortical frontal areas of termination: pars opercularis, pars triangularis, ventral precentral gyrus, and caudal middle frontal gyrus. We found clear asymmetry of the frontal terminations at pars opercularis and ventral precentral gyrus. The analysis of patterns of connectivity revealed the existence of a strong structural segmentation in the left arcuate, but not in the right one. The left arcuate fascicle is formed by an inner or ventral pathway, which interconnects pars opercularis with superior and rostral middle temporal gyri; and an outer or dorsal pathway, which interconnects ventral precentral and caudal middle frontal gyri with caudal middle and inferior temporal gyri. The fiber microdissection results provided further support to our tractography studies. We propose the existence of primary and supplementary language pathways within the dominant arcuate fascicle with potentially distinct functional and lesional features.

description: We obtain a minimal form of the two-derivative three-nucleon contact Lagrangian, by imposing all constraints deriving from discrete symmetries, Fierz identities and Poincare' covariance. The resulting interaction, depending on 13 unknown low-energy constants, leads to a three-nucleon potential which we give in a local form in configuration space. We also consider the leading (no-derivative) four-nucleon interaction and show that there exists only one independent operator.

description: We study spin transport in nonitinerant one-dimensional quantum spin chains. Motivated by possible applications in spintronics, we consider rectification effects in both ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic systems. We find that the crucial ingredients in designing a system that displays a nonzero rectification current are an anisotropy in the exchange interaction of the spin chain combined with an offset magnetic field. For both ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic systems we can exploit the gap in the excitation spectrum that is created by a bulk anisotropy to obtain a measurable rectification effect at realistic magnetic fields. For antiferromagnetic systems we also find that we can achieve a similar effect by introducing a magnetic impurity, obtained by altering two neighboring bonds in the spin Hamiltonian.

description: In this paper, we present several adaptation methods for non-native speech recognition. We have tested pronunciation modelling, MLLR and MAP non-native pronunciation adaptation and HMM models retraining on the HIWIRE foreign accented English speech database. The ``phonetic confusion'' scheme we have developed consists in associating to each spoken phone several sequences of confused phones. In our experiments, we have used different combinations of acoustic models representing the canonical and the foreign pronunciations: spoken and native models, models adapted to the non-native accent with MAP and MLLR. The joint use of pronunciation modelling and acoustic adaptation led to further improvements in recognition accuracy. The best combination of the above mentioned techniques resulted in a relative word error reduction ranging from 46% to 71%.
Revealing novel insight in clear cell renal cell carcinoma through high-plex and machine learning tools

description: Clear Cell Renal Cell Carcinoma (ccRCC) is the most common form of kidney cancer and its incidence is constantly increasing. Although immunotherapy has shown promising results, the only current curative method is ablative surgery, and recurrence is observed in about one third of cases. Moreover, patient prognosis drops significantly with metastatic disease. Current prognostic tools such as Leibovich Score (LS) aim to predict the risk of recurrence by stratifying patients into high, low, and intermediate risk groups. However, this algorithm only takes into account morphological features of the tumour, such as tumour stage and nuclear grade, while it does not consider the vast molecular milieu present in the tumour microenvironment (TME). Furthermore, morphological features are manually assessed by pathologists and are therefore subject to inter- and intra- observer variability. ccRCC TME is complex and heterogeneous, consisting of cell subtypes and molecular mechanisms which may either favour or prevent disease progression and metastatic spread. In this thesis, the author focused on four main molecular mechanisms: immune evasion, T cell exhaustion, epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and cancer stem-like cells (CSCs). Multiplex immunofluorescence (mIF) and GeoMx digital spatial profiling (DSP) by NanoString technology have been used on 150 ccRCC tissue microarrays (TMA) and whole slides (WS) in order to investigate the prognostic role of more than 160 markers. mRNA was also extracted from primary and metastatic tissues from a subset of the cohort to evaluate the expression of 750 genes using the NanoString nCounter technology. Machine learning-based image analysis software were used to detect and quantify these markers, their co-expression at single cell level, and their spatial relationship. Moreover, some markers were chosen to better stratify patients at intermediate LS risk, and increase LS accuracy. To conclude, a semi-automated method was developed in order to investigate the ccRCC TME, reduce observer bias, and increase patients’ stratification, facilitating personalised therapy.

description: Vestibular information plays a key role in many perceptual and cognitive functions, but surprisingly little is known about how vestibular signals are processed at the cortical level in humans. To address this issue, we tested the ability of two patients, with damage to key components of the vestibular network in either the left or right hemisphere, to perceive passive whole-body rotations (25–125°) about the yaw axis. In both patients, the posterior insula, hippocampus, putamen, and thalamus were extensively damaged. The patients’ responses were compared with those of nine age- and sex-matched neurologically intact participants. The body rotations were conducted without vision and the peak angular velocities ranged from 40° to 90° per second. Perceived rotation was assessed by open-loop manual pointing. The right hemisphere patient exhibited poor sensitivity for body rotations toward the contralesional (left) hemispace and generally underestimated the rotations. By contrast, his judgments of rotations toward the ipsilesional (right) hemispace greatly overestimated the physical rotation by 50–70° for all tested magnitudes. The left hemisphere patient's responses were more appropriately scaled for both rotation directions, falling in the low-normal range. These findings suggest that there is some degree of hemispheric specialization in the cortical processing of dynamic head rotations in the yaw plane. In this view, right hemisphere structures play a dominant role, processing rotations in both directions, while left hemisphere structures process rotations only toward the contralesional hemispace.
