description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.Large uncertainties in the catch data (official landings and discards) are undermining ICES' ability to provide valid management advice based on the conventional approach of analytical assessments. There is thus an urgent need to consider alternative tools that do not depend on long series of precise catches, with their age composition. This paper presents a few fisheryindependent assessment models developed by the EU project FISBOAT (Fishery Independent Survey Based Operational Assessment Tools). It also reports on rudimentary tests based on simulated data, following the same protocol as an evaluation study conducted by the US National Research Council in 1997. It appears that the survey-based assessment models at hand are able to reliably capture the major signal in biomass and recruitment, although they smooth out transient changes. However, they cannot provide absolute abundance estimates, but only relative values on an arbitrary scale. Their operationalisation in ICES would thus require an adaptation of the advisory framework, in terms of nature of the advice and definition of reference points; indeed, this might be needed anyway, if we were more lucid about the myth of VPA estimates being absolute. It is also noted that survey-based approaches have the potential to provide much more rapid updates of the state of stocks than catch-based methods.

description: A detailed investigation of phonon excitations and charge carrier dynamics in single crystals of Fe_{1-x}Cu_{x}Cr_{2}S_{4} (x = 0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.5) has been performed by using infrared spectroscopy. In FeCr_{2}S_{4} the phonon eigenmodes are strongly affected by the onset of magnetic order. Despite enhanced screening effects, a continuous evolution of the phonon excitations can be observed in the doped compounds with x = 0.2 (metallic) and x = 0.4, 0.5 (bad metals), but the effect of magnetic ordering on the phonons is strongly reduced compared to x = 0. The Drude-like charge-carrier contribution to the optical conductivity in the doped samples indicates that the colossal magneto-resistance effect results from the suppression of spin-disorder scattering.

The targum (1961:Oct. 2 - 1961:Oct. 31)
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: Targum Association
Year: 1961

description: Some University historians indicate that the Targum was first published as an annual in 1867, but of this we have no extant evidence. In January 1869, the Targum as we now know it, made its appearance as a monthly paper that concerned itself with student “literary contributions” and college news as well as serving as a vehicle for bringing news to alumni and the general public. The newspaper, which originally was for sale, varied in frequency over the years as did its title (The Targum, Rutgers Targum, Rutgers Daily Targum, and Daily Targum). The newspaper has continuously been published since 1869 with the exception of 19 months during the second world war, between February 1944 and October 1945. The Targum was published by the students of Rutgers College, and later Rutgers University—New Brunswick represented through the years as the Targum Association, Rutgers Targum Association, and Rutgers College Targum. As a student organization, the Targum operated under the oversight of the dean of students and student government but in October 1980, the Targum became an independent college paper.

description: Nb3Sn is experiencing a renaissance thanks to the
 high performance required for the Future Circular Collider
 (FCC-hh) 16T dipole magnets. One of the most
 promising technologies for improving the conductor
 performance is the introduction of artificial pinning
 centers (APC). Here we present the characterization of
 prototype PIT Nb3Sn wires with 4at.%Ta-1at.%Zr and
 4at.%Ta-1at.%Hf additions, manufactured by Hyper
 Tech Inc.(USA). SQUID magnetometry was used to
 assess Jc, benchmarking the high field results obtained
 by resistive measurements; local inhomogeneities were
 evaluated by means of AC susceptibility (SQUID) and
 scanning Hall probe microscopy (SHPM). These results
 were then related with the microstructure for investigating
 possible relations between radial-Tc distribution
 and Sn % content.

description: (21) Lutetia has been visited by Rosetta mission on July 2010 and observed with a phase angle ranging from 0.15 to 156.8 degrees. The Baetica region, located at the north pole has been extensively observed by OSIRIS cameras system. Baetica encompass a region called North Pole Crater Cluster (NPCC), shows a cluster of superposed craters which presents signs of variegation at the small phase angle images. For studying the location, we used 187 images distributed throughout 14 filter recorded by the NAC (Narrow Angle Camera) and WAC (Wide Angle Camera) taken during the fly-by. We photometrically modeled the region using Minnaert disk-function and Akimov phase function to finally reconstruct a resolved spectral slope map at 5 and 20 degrees of phase angle. We observed a dichotomy between Gallicum and Danuvius-Sarnus Labes in the NPCC, but no significant phase reddening. In the next step, we applied the Hapke (2008, 2012) model for the NAC F82+F22 (649.2 nm), WAC F13 (375 nm) and WAC F17 (631.6 nm), enabling us to compose the normal albedo and Hapke parameter maps for NAC F82+F22. On Baetica, the 649 nm global properties are: geometric albedo of 0.205+-0.005, the average single-scattering albedo of 0.181+-0.005, the average asymmetric factor of -0.342+-0.003, the average shadow-hiding opposition effect amplitude and width respectivelly of 0.824+-0.002 and 0.040+-0.0007, the average roughness slope of 11.45+-3 deg. and the average porosity is 85+-0.2%. In the NPCC, the normal albedo variegation among the craters walls reach 8% brighter for Gallicum Labes and 2% fainter for Danuvius Labes. The Hapke parameter maps also show a dichotomy at the opposition effect coefficients, single-scattering albedo and asymmetric factor, that may be attributed to the maturation degree of the regolith or to compositonal variation.

Anti-Swarming: Structure and Dynamics of Repulsive Chemically Active Particles

description: Chemically active Brownian particles with surface catalytic reactions may repel each other due to diffusiophoretic interactions in the reaction and product concentration fields. The system behavior can be described by a `chemical' coupling parameter $Γ_c$ that compares the strength of diffusiophoretic repulsion to Brownian motion, and by a mapping to the classical electrostatic One Component Plasma (OCP) system. When confined to a constant-volume domain, Body-Centered Cubic crystals spontaneously form from random initial configurations when the repulsion is strong enough to overcome Brownian motion. Face-Centered Cubic crystals may also be stable. The `melting point' of the `liquid-to-crystal transition' occurs at $Γ_c\approx140$ for both BCC and FCC lattices.

The H Beta Index as an Age Indicator of Old Stellar Systems: The Effects of Horizontal-Branch Stars

description: The strength of the H$β$ index has been computed for the integrated spectra of model globular clusters from the evolutionary population synthesis. These models take into account, for the first time, the detailed systematic variation of horizontal-branch (HB) morphology with age and metallicity. Our models show that the H$β$ index is significantly affected by the presence of blue HB stars. Because of the contribution from blue HB stars, the H$β$ does not monotonically decrease as metallicity increases at a given age. Instead, it reaches a maximum strength when the distribution of HB stars is centered around 9500 K, the temperature where the H$β$ index becomes strongest. Our models indicate that the strength of the H$β$ index increases as much as 0.75 Å due to the presence of blue HB stars. The comparison of the recent Keck observations of the globular cluster system in the Milky Way Galaxy with those in giant elliptical galaxies, NGC 1399 and M87, shows a systematic shift in the H$β$ against metallicity plane. Our models suggest that this systematic difference is understood if the globular cluster systems in giant elliptical galaxies are several billion years older, in the mean, than the Galactic counterpart. Further observations of globular cluster systems in the external galaxies from the large ground-based telescopes and space UV facilities will enable to clarify whether this difference is indeed due to the age difference or other explanations are also possible.

Time-dependent occurrence rate of electromagnetic cyclotron waves in the solar wind: evidence for effect of alpha particles?

description: Previous studies revealed that electromagnetic cyclotron waves (ECWs) near the proton cyclotron frequency exist widely in the solar wind, and the majority of ECWs are left-handed (LH) polarized waves. Using the magnetic field data from the STEREO mission, this Letter carries out a survey of ECWs over a long period of 7 years, and calculates the occurrence rates of ECWs with different polarization senses. Results show that the occurrence rate is nearly a constant for the ECWs with right-handed polarization, but it varies significantly for the ECWs with LH polarization. Further investigation of plasma conditions reveals that the LH ECWs take place preferentially in a plasma characterized by higher temperature, lower density, and larger velocity. Some considerable correlations between the occurrence rate of LH ECWs and the properties of ambient plasmas are discussed. The present research may provide evidence for effect of alpha particles on generation of ECWs.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.There is increasing pressure for the introduction of spatial management regimes, in particular with relation to inshore shellfish stocks. It is unlikely that micro-management of stocks will be supported by full-blown, age-based assessments. Instead regimes are more likely to rely upon semi-permanent measures such as closed seasons and areas or reactive management based upon simple estimates of relative abundance. Investigations into the potential impact of local-scale spatial management should take account of the ability of fishing vessels to move between management areas. A spatial management model was therefore designed to track the decisions and subsequent success of individual fishing vessels in order to evaluate the relative performance of differing management plans. In the model, individual vessels move around a grid of locations populated by sessile organisms (scallops in this example). Each vessel has a daily operational range within which it must find the optimum location to fish, this optimum being based upon the track record of fishing within those grid cells currently open to fishing within the operational area. Grid cells are grouped to form management areas, each with a distinct management regime. A hypothetical scenario was tested containing 6 management areas and a small fleet of 10 vessels. The model was run for 50 years and the status of the scallop stocks and the performance of the vessels were recorded. 5 management plans were tested in which the management strategy of just one area was modified. The implications for the stock in the test area and the knock-on effects in the other areas are examined.

description: We consider the problem of estimating the fractional order of a Levy process from low frequency historical and options data. An estimation methodology is developed which allows us to treat both estimation and calibration problems in a unified way. The corresponding procedure consists of two steps: the estimation of a conditional characteristic function and the weighted least squares estimation of the fractional order in spectral domain. While the second step is identical for both calibration and estimation, the first one depends on the problem at hand. Minimax rates of convergence for the fractional order estimate are derived, the asymptotic normality is proved and a data-driven algorithm based on aggregation is proposed. The performance of the estimator in both estimation and calibration setups is illustrated by a simulation study.

description: We develop sufficient optimality conditions for a Moreau-Yosida regularized optimal control problem governed by a semilinear elliptic PDE with pointwise constraints on the state and the control. We make use of the equivalence of a setting of Moreau-Yosida regularization to a special setting of the virtual control concept, for which standard second order sufficient conditions have been shown. Moreover, we compare both regularization approaches within a numerical example.

description: Device-to-Device (D2D) communication is expected to be a key feature supported by 5G networks, especially due to the proliferation of Mobile Edge Computing (MEC), which has a prominent role in reducing network stress by shifting computational tasks from the Internet to the mobile edge. Apart from being part of MEC, D2D can extend cellular coverage allowing users to communicate directly when telecommunication infrastructure is highly congested or absent. This significant departure from the typical cellular paradigm imposes the need for decentralised network routing protocols. Moreover, enhanced capabilities of mobile devices and D2D networking will likely result in proliferation of new malware types and epidemics. Although the literature is rich in terms of D2D routing protocols that enhance quality-of-service and energy consumption, they provide only basic security support, e.g., in the form of encryption. Routing decisions can, however, contribute to collaborative detection of mobile malware by leveraging different kinds of anti-malware software installed on mobile devices. Benefiting from the cooperative nature of D2D communications, devices can rely on each other's contributions to detect malware. The impact of our work is geared towards having more malware-free D2D networks. To achieve this, we designed and implemented a novel routing protocol for D2D communications that optimises routing decisions for explicitly improving malware detection. The protocol identifies optimal network paths, in terms of malware mitigation and energy spent for malware detection, based on a game theoretic model. Diverse capabilities of network devices running different types of anti-malware software and their potential for inspecting messages relayed towards an intended destination device are leveraged using game theoretic tools. An optimality analysis of both Nash and Stackelberg security games is undertaken, including both zero and non-zero sum variants, and the Defender's equilibrium strategies. By undertaking network simulations, theoretical results obtained are illustrated through randomly generated network scenarios showing how our protocol outperforms conventional routing protocols, in terms of expected payoff, which consists of: security damage in inflicted by malware and malware detection cost.

We prove stability, convergence, discuss conservation properties, and present numerical experiments that demonstrate the advantages of the scheme.

description: We investigate geometrical properties of the random K-satisfiability problem using the notion of x-satisfiability: a formula is x-satisfiable if there exist two SAT assignments differing in Nx variables. We show the existence of a sharp threshold for this property as a function of the clause density. For large enough K, we prove that there exists a region of clause density, below the satisfiability threshold, where the landscape of Hamming distances between SAT assignments experiences a gap: pairs of SAT-assignments exist at small x, and around x=1/2, but they donot exist at intermediate values of x. This result is consistent with the clustering scenario which is at the heart of the recent heuristic analysis of satisfiability using statistical physics analysis (the cavity method), and its algorithmic counterpart (the survey propagation algorithm). The method uses elementary probabilistic arguments (first and second moment methods), and might be useful in other problems of computational and physical interest where similar phenomena appear.

description: Abstract: "We first present a new proof for the standardisation theorem, a fundamental theorem in [lambda]-calculus. Since our proof is largely built upon structural induction on lambda terms, we can extract some bounds for the number of reduction steps in the standard reduction sequences obtained from transforming any given reduction sequences. This result sharpens the standardisation theorem and establishes a link between lazy and eager evaluation orders in the context of computational complexity. As an application, we establish a super exponential bound for the number of reduction steps in reduction sequences from any given simply typed [lambda]-terms."

description: This article studies two methods for obtaining excellent mass conservation in finite element computations of the Navier-Stokes equations using continuous velocity fields. Under mild restrictions, the Scott-Vogelius element pair has recently been shown to be inf-sup stable and have optimal approximation properties, while also providing pointwise mass conservation. We present herein the first numerical tests of this element pair for the time dependent Navier-Stokes equations. We also prove that, again under these mild restrictions, the limit of the grad-div stabilized Taylor-Hood solutions to the Navier-Stokes problem converges to the Scott-Vogelius solution as the stabilization parameter tends to infinity. That is, in this setting, we provide theoretical justification that choosing the parameter large does not destroy the solution. A limiting result is also proven for the general case. Numerical tests are provided which verify the theory, and show how both Scott-Vogelius and grad-div stabilized Taylor-Hood (with large stabilization parameter) elements can provide accurate results with excellent mass conservation for Navier-Stokes approximations.

description: Objective The Glucose in Well Babies (GLOW) Study showed that there are two phases of low glucose concentrations in healthy newborn infants: an initial phase in which plasma concentrations of ketones are low; and a second phase in which low glucose concentrations are accompanied by elevated concentrations of ketones. The implications of these two phases for the brain differ depending on whether ketones are available as alternative substrate for brain metabolism. The purpose of this study was to estimate the duration of these two phases of neonatal low glucose concentrations in 66 healthy breastfed newborns from the GLOW Study during the first 5 days of life. Methods The sum of glucose and beta-hydroxybutyrate (BOHB) was used as a proxy for the total concentrations of insulin-dependent fuels for the brain; a threshold value below 4 mmol/L was taken to indicate the presence of relative hyperinsulinism and a BOHB concentration above 0.5 mmol/L to indicate ketonaemia. Results The first phase of low glucose concentrations lasted a median of 40 hours and in 15% of infants, this persisted beyond 60 hours. Fifty (76%) of the 66 infants subsequently had ketonaemia, which resolved at a median age of 76 hours (range 41–>120 hours). Conclusions These data suggest that monitoring BOHB concentrations may be useful for interpreting glucose concentrations in newborns and screening for persistent hyperinsulinism.

description: Two new cobalt(II) coordination polymers based on H4bpta (H4bpta = 3,3′,5,5′-biphenyltetracarboxylic acid) and N-donor ligands, namely [Co2(1,3-bimb)2(bpta)]n·2nH2O (1) and [Co2(1,4-bib)2(bpta)]n·2n(H2O·DMF) (2), (1,4-bib = 1,4-bis(imidazol-1-yl)benzene, 1,3-bimb = 1,3-bis((1H-imidazol-1-yl)methyl)benzene), have been obtained under solvothermal conditions. Series of biological experiments were performed for the biological activity evaluation. Firstly, the western blotting assay was performed to evaluate the inflammasome activation in the endothelial cells of retina after compound treatment. Besides, the enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) detection kit was used to measure the down-stream production of the inflammasome activation.

description: For limiting non-compact Sobolev embeddings into continuous functions we study behavior of Approximation, Gelfand, Kolmogorov, Bernstein and Isomorphism s-numbers. In the one dimensional case the exact values of the above-mentioned strict s-numbers were obtained and in the higher dimensions sharp estimates for asymptotic behavior of strict s-numbers were established. As all known results for s-numbers of Sobolev type embeddings are studied mainly under the compactness assumption then our work is an extension of existing results and reveal an interesting behavior of s-numbers in the limiting case when some of them (Approximation, Gelfand and Kolmogorov) have positive lower bound and others (Bernstein and Isomorphism) are decreasing to zero. From our results also follows that such limiting non-compact Sobolev embeddings are finitely strictly singular maps.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.This study aims to explore the performance of the approach based on spatial indicators to characterise with quantitative metrics the spatial dynamics of red mullet life stages (recruits and adults), to identify areas where red mullet recruits are more concentrated, to establish relationships with the adult distribution and to detect the ability of spatial indicators to capture the stability of the spatial occupation of preferential areas across the years. Data are from the GRUND and MEDITS experimental trawl surveys. The methodological approach used in this study is based on the estimate of spatial indicators as developed within the EU Fisboat project. The results proved that many of the 9 examined spatial indicators and pairwise relationships, between indicators and abundance, enabled us to better understand the spatial distribution and interannual variability of the red mullet population life stages and the relationships between spatial distribution and abundance. In addition, we identified the geographical area (southwards, along the Calabria coast) where recruits of red mullet resulted mainly distributed and we also verified that these locations are stable across years.

description: Multilevel Monte Carlo simulations of the vortex matter in the highly-anisotropic high-temperature superconductor Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_8$ were performed. We introduced low concentration of columnar defects satisfying $B_ϕ\le B$. Both the electromagnetic and Josephson interactions among pancake vortices were included. The nanocrystalline, nanoliquid and homogeneous liquid phases were identified in agreement with experiments. We observed the two-step melting process and also noted an enhancement of the structure factor just prior to the melting transition. A proposed theoretical model is in agreement with our findings.

description: The paper is concerned with a general ansatz of a phenomenological evolution model for solid-solid phase transformation kinetics in steel. To model the phase transition of austenite-ferrite, -pearlite or -bainite, a first order nonlinear ordinary differential equation (ODE) is considered. The main goal of this paper is to derive certain conditions for parameters which based on data obtained from transformation diagrams. This leads to a set of independent parameters for which the inverse problem has an unique solution.

description: No abstracts are to be cited without prior reference to the author.As the scope of fisheries management continues to broaden, there is increased pressure on scientific assessment processes to consider a greater number of species. This expanded list of species will inevitably include those with a range of life-history strategies, heterogeneous sources of information, and diverse stakeholder values. When faced with this challenge in New South Wales (Australia), the Department of Primary Industries developed systems and processes that scaled efficiently as the number of species requiring consideration increased. The key aspects of our approach are: • A qualitative determination of exploitation status based upon expert review. The current categories are: growth/recruitment overfished, fully fished, moderately fished, lightly fished, undefined and uncertain. • Application of management rules that require a Species Recovery Program should any species be determined to be overfished. • An emphasis on readily calculated empirical indicators (such as catch, catch-rates, length and age composition), rather than model-based estimates of biomass or fishing mortality. • Use of databases and electronic reporting systems to calculate empirical indicators based upon specified rules.

description: The expression of PD-L1 on tumor cells or within the tumor microenvironment has been associated with good prognosis and sustained clinical responses in immunotherapeutic regimens based on PD-L1/PD-1/CD80 immune checkpoint blockade. To look into the current controversy in cancer immunotherapy of the relative importance of PD-L1 expression on tumor cells versus non-tumor cells of the tumor microenvironment, a hematological mouse tumor model was chosen. By combining a genetic CRISPR/Cas9 and immunotherapeutic approach and using a syngeneic hematopoietic transplantable tumor model (E.G7-cOVA tumor cells), we demonstrated that dual blockade of PD-L1 interaction with PD-1 and CD80 enhanced anti-tumor immune responses that either delayed tumor growth or led to its complete eradication. PD-L1 expression on non-tumor cells of the tumor microenvironment was required for the promotion of tumor immune escape and its blockade elicited potent anti-tumor responses to PD-L1 WT and to PD-L1-deficient tumor cells. PD-L1+ tumors implanted in PD-L1-deficient mice exhibited delayed tumor growth independently of PD-L1 blockade. These findings emphasize that PD-L1 expression on non-tumor cells plays a major role in this tumor model. These observations should turn our attention to the tumor microenvironment in hematological malignancies because of its unappreciated contribution to create a conditioned niche for the tumor to grow and evade the anti-tumor immune response.

description: Introduction: Smart technologies connected to Internet of Things, artificial intelligence, digital health and eHealth has been shown to improve the institutional elderly care efficiently and cost-effectively. The need for information technologies in geriatric healthcare is urgent to meet the aspiration of the rapidly ageing societies, finding a suitable smart nursing home model and sufficient for the future demands in developed and developing countries. Much innovation of smart healthcare with proposed software and hardware entities has occurred in the past decade, and their use in nursing care assessment, activities of daily living and service management is yet to be defined. More fundamentally, the concept, definition and scopes of a smart nursing home in terms of smart technology adoption, medical services integration and their acceptability are less clear. This scoping review aims to examine the extent, range (variety), and nature (characteristics) of the evidence on the existing smart concepts and feasible healthcare technologies, types of medical services in nursing home settings and acceptability of a smart nursing home by all relevant stakeholders (the elderly people, their caregivers, nursing homes operators and government agencies). Methods and analysis: This scoping review will be guided by the smart technology adoption behaviors of elder consumers theoretical model by Golant (Elderadopt) and reported according to the PRISMA-ScR. We will divide the review into two sections. First, we will conduct an internet search for nursing homes and related stakeholders’ websites to retrieve definitions, concepts, and criteria of smart nursing homes. Second, we will conduct systematic electronic databases search for published articles on the concept of smart nursing home with any measure of technological feasibility, medical services integration and their acceptability by stakeholders as the outcomes. The search on 11 electronic databases will be from 1999 onwards, limited to English and Chinese, elderly people aged ≥ 65 year-old as residents with or without medical needs but not terminally ill or bed-bound. Qualitative data analysis will follow the Framework Methods and thematic analysis using combined inductive and deductive approaches, by at least 2 reviewers.
