description: After the sale of the Long Pond Sugar Factory in Clarkes Town, Trelawany in Jamaica, farmers with less than 5 acres of land found it unprofitable to grow and sell their sugarcane to the new company, mainly due to the cost involved in transporting the sugarcane to the factory and the yield that they were receiving. The extension service of the Ministry of Agriculture has advised them to switch to the growing of cabbage, carrots and irish potatoes as there was a constant demand for these commodities by the local hotels located along the coast of Trelawny and which were much closer to them than Clarkes Town. The results from the simulation and solving of the linear programming indicated that there was a range of Ja$ 848,890 in the total revenue caused by a minimum revenue of Ja.$ 748,322 and a maximum revenue of Ja. 1,597,222. The results of the simulation indicated that on the average a farmer will be guaranteed with a probability of 0.52 that their total revenue will be more than Ja.$1.2 million. The simulation results also indicated that farmers will be guaranteed with a probability of 0.82 that their total revenue will lie between Ja$ 0.9 million and Ja. 1.35 million. The result of such an analysis indicates that the growing of these crops will be alternative agricultural activity that can be pursue by these farmers, most of whom have farm sizes which are less than five acres in size.

description: LIONEPHA OSCULANS (CASEY, 1918)
(FIGS 3A, 17A, B, 13A, B; 19A, 24A)
Bembidion osculans Casey, 1918: 20. Lectotype ♀, designated by Lindroth (1975: 116), in USNM (type # 36816), examined. Type locality: Marin County, California, as restricted by Lindroth (1963).
Bembidion speculum Casey, 1918: 20. Lectotype ♀, designated by Lindroth (1975: 116), in USNM (type # 36815), examined. Synonymy established by Lindroth (1963). Type locality: Marin County, California.
Diagnosis: This is the largest species of Lionepha, with some females reaching nearly 6 mm in length. It is also the broadest, with a wide, rounded prothorax (Fig. 3A). The elytral microsculpture is more transversely stretched than other Lionepha (Fig. 17A, B), yielding a notable iridescence, especially in the males. Elytra with at least the third stria visible beyond the posterior dorsal puncture and the second stria almost reaching the elytral apex. It tends to be slightly darker, with darker legs, than other members of the L. osculans group, but some specimens are paler. Aedeagus deep, with a bulbous appearance because of the sinuate ventral surface (Fig. 13A, B).
Additional characteristics: Body length 4.68– 5.90 mm. Antennae dark, piceous, although the first antennomere can be dark rufous on the underside. Legs in most specimens rufopiceous, occasionally rufous, darker at the joints. Hind wings full-sized. Chromosomes of male 24 + X (Table 5).
Geographic variation: The six specimens sequenced from Oregon have three unique bases within the 28S gene; this is evident in the 28S tree in Figure 5, where the Oregon specimens form a distinct clade.
Note: Hering (1998) reported on the food consumed by ‘ Bembidion osculans ’ on Knowles Creek in Oregon; we examined a selection of specimens from his study, and the majority belong to Lionepha tuulukwa, with a few specimens belonging to L. osculans
Distribution: A widespread species, common in the Sierra Nevada and coastal areas of California, north to Washington and Idaho (Fig. 24A). As noted by Erwin & Kavanaugh (1981), the record from the Olympic Peninsula in Washington is somewhat doubtful. Commonly encountered between 0 and 2000 m, with a few specimens found up to 2400 m. Found in all months of the year except February; most common in the middle of summer.
Habitat: By far the commonest large Lionepha, found in a variety of habitats associated with water, including along the shores of creeks, especially in forests and on the edge of melting snowfields in open conifer forests in the Sierra Nevada.

Cadmium in the coastal marine environment : pathways for cadmium in oysters and using the cadmium : phosphorus ratio as an indicator of biogeochemical processes
Creators: name: Lekhi, Priya Anka
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Pacific oysters collected on the coasts of British Columbia (BC) have shown Cd levels of around 2 μgg⁻¹ and higher (wet weight) which has resulted in the loss of some international markets. During 2004-2005, two farm sites on Vancouver Island were monitored for various parameters including the Cd concentration in oysters, dissolved and particulate Cd in seawater, temperature and salinity. One part of this study investigated the source and transfer of Cd to oysters by focusing on the role of dissolved and particulate Cd in seawater. Results show that dissolved Cd is the main source of Cd to oysters and a seasonal trend was observed for Cd in oysters, where levels were lowest during periods of warmer temperatures. Factors such as input of water masses and sediment diagenesis were found to directly affect dissolved Cd and thereby, influence the Cd levels in oysters. Particulate matter was not a significant source of Cd to oysters and actually has a negative effect. This effect is likely due to the uptake of dissolved Cd by phytoplankton and to the uptake of phytoplankton by oysters, which effectively increases the tissue mass and dilutes the Cd content in oysters. The other half of this study looked at the marine environment of these two locations using the Cd:P ratio as an indicator of many biogeochemical processes. Dissolved Cd and P, as well as particulate Cd, P and Ti were analyzed biweekly at one depth and throughout the water column three times during the year. In addition, a surface marine sediment sample was also analyzed. Cd:P is consistent in the deep open ocean, due to respiration processes but this consistency breaks down in the coastal waters. These two sites demonstrate that the coastal Cd-P ratio can be affected by phytoplankton species composition, phytoplankton abundance, sedimentary input, physical mixing of water masses with varying Cd-P ratios, and sediment diagenesis. Biological activity, highly affected by species composition and abundance, is generally the main factor affecting the Cd-P ratio, but other factors can also lead to variations of the ratio on smaller time and spatial scales.

description: Answering connectivity queries in semi-algebraic sets is a long-standing and challenging computational issue with applications in robotics, in particular for the analysis of kinematic singularities. One task there is to compute the number of connected components of the complementary of the singularities of the kinematic map. Another task is to design a continuous path joining two given points lying in the same connected component of such a set. In this paper, we push forward the current capabilities of computer algebra to obtain computer-aided proofs of the analysis of the kinematic singularities of various robots used in industry. We first show how to combine mathematical reasoning with easy symbolic computations to study the kinematic singularities of an infinite family (depending on paramaters) modelled by the UR-series produced by the company ``Universal Robots''. Next, we compute roadmaps (which are curves used to answer connectivity queries) for this family of robots. We design an algorithm for ``solving'' positive dimensional polynomial system depending on parameters. The meaning of solving here means partitioning the parameter's space into semi-algebraic components over which the number of connected components of the semi-algebraic set defined by the input system is invariant. Practical experiments confirm our computer-aided proof and show that such an algorithm can already be used to analyze the kinematic singularities of the UR-series family. The number of connected components of the complementary of the kinematic singularities of generic robots in this family is $8$.

Lionepha sequoiae

description: LIONEPHA SEQUOIAE (LINDROTH, 1963)
(FIGS 3B, 17C, D, 13C, D, 19B, 24B)
Bembidion sequoiae Lindroth, 1963: 260. Holotype ♂ in MCZ (type # 32532), examined. Type locality: Sequoia National Park, California.
Diagnosis: The most distinctive external feature of this moderately large Lionepha is the exceptionally small basal protarsomeres in males (Fig. 19B), which are only slightly wider than the second protarsomeres, much smaller than in other Lionepha (see other images in Fig. 19). Elytra not iridescent, as sculpticells are not sufficiently transverse (Fig. 17C, D). Aedeagus with broad apex, and with clearly visible dark scales on the internal sac membranes, yielding a speckled appearance (Fig. 13C, D).
Additional characteristics: Body length 4.31–4.95 mm. Antenna piceous, with first antennomere rufous, at least on the underside. Legs rufous, with darker joints. Hind wings full-sized. Chromosomes of male 24 + X (Table 5).
Distribution: This species has been found in the Sierra Nevada of California, the Cascades of Oregon and north to Vancouver, British Columbia (Fig. 24B). There are, in addition, two low-elevation records from coastal California (Sonoma County); although one of these records (from 2.5 miles N of Cazadero on King Ridge, Big Austin Creek; CAS) is relatively recent, both records are unexpected and should be confirmed. Found from 30 to 2230 m in elevation. Specimens were collected from March through September.
Habitat: Found along the gravel and cobble shores of creeks in forests or in forest clearings. Over 80 specimens were found along partly shaded areas of School Creek in the Cascades of Oregon, with most found at the gravel and cobble edge of a splash pool below a culvert.

description: We report on spectral variability of the blazar 3C 279 in the optical to X-ray band between MJD 55100 and 58400 during which long-term radio variability was observed. We construct light curves and band spectra in each of the optical ($2\times10^{14}$-$1.5\times10^{15}$ Hz) and X-ray (0.3-10 keV) bands, measure the spectral parameters (flux $F$ and spectral index $α$), and investigate correlation between $F$ and $α$ within and across the bands. We find that the correlation of the optical properties dramatically change after $\sim$MJD 55500 and the light curves show more frequent activity after $\sim$MJD 57700. We therefore divide the time interval into three "states" based on the correlation properties and source activity in the light curves, and analyze each of the three states separately. We find various correlations between the spectral parameters in the states and an intriguing 65-day delay of the optical emission with respect to the X-ray one in state 2 (MJD 55500-57700). We attempt to explain these findings using a one-zone synchro-Compton emission scenario.

description: Abridged: The interest towards searches for extraterrestrial civilizations (ETCs) was boosted by the discovery of thousands of exoplanets. We turn to the classification of ETCs for new considerations that may help to design better strategies for ETCs searches. We take a basic taxonomic approach to ETCs and investigate the implications of the new classification on ETCs observational patterns. We use as a counter-example to our qualitative classification the quantitative scheme of Kardashev. We propose a classification based on the abilities of ETCs to modify their environment and to integrate with it: Class 0 uses the environment as it is, Class 1 modifies the it to fit its needs, Class 2 modifies itself to fit the environment and Class 3 ETC is fully integrated with the environment. Combined with the classical Kardashev's scale our scheme forms a 2d scheme for interpreting ETC properties. The new framework makes it obvious that the available energy is not an unique measure of ETCs, it may not even correlate with how well that energy is used. The possibility for progress without increased energy consumption implies lower detectability, so the existence of a Kardashev Type III ETC in the Milky Way cannot be ruled out. This reasoning weakens the Fermi paradox, allowing the existence of advanced, yet not energy hungry, low detectability ETCs. The integration of ETCs with environment makes it impossible to tell apart technosignatures from natural phenomena. Thus, the most likely opportunity for SETI searches is to look for beacons, specifically set up by them for young civilizations like us (if they want to do that is a matter of speculation). The other SETI window is to search for ETCs at technological level close to ours. To rephrase the saying of A. Clarke, sufficiently advanced civilizations are indistinguishable from nature.

Informational Collapse A Unified Approach to Black Hole Formation via the Spin Informational Theory
Creators: name: Matuchaki
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: Title: Informational Collapse: A Unified Approach to Black Hole Formation via the Spin Informational Theory (TGU)

📖 Abstract:This study introduces a novel approach to black hole formation based on the Unified Theory of Informational Spin (TGU). Unlike General Relativity (GR), TGU suggests that informational coherence and fundamental spin play a crucial role in gravitational collapse. The TGU model modifies the Schwarzschild and Kerr metrics by incorporating the ϵ(r)−12\epsilon(r)^{-12}ϵ(r)−12 informational factor, predicting a larger event horizon and a distinct brightness distribution in the black hole shadow.

🔍 Key Findings:✅ TGU predicts a larger event horizon than GR, potentially avoiding singularities.✅ The black hole shadow in TGU exhibits subtle differences in size and brightness due to metric modifications and relativistic Doppler effects.✅ Comparisons with Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) observations of M87* and Sgr A* suggest that TGU predictions may be testable in future high-precision astronomical missions.✅ TGU proposes a new paradigm for black holes, where information can be preserved through informational coherence.

📊 Methodology:

Implementation of the Kerr-TGU metric with ϵ(r)−12\epsilon(r)^{-12}ϵ(r)−12.

Simulation of the black hole shadow, including relativistic and Doppler effects.

Quantitative comparison with EHT observational data.

🚀 Scientific Impact:The results indicate that TGU may provide a new explanation for observable phenomena in black holes, potentially anticipating future discoveries in theoretical astrophysics.

description: We theoretically study the electrical transport properties of a single level quantum dot connected to two normal conducting leads, which is coupled to the lattice vibrations. We determine the current through the quantum dot in two different situations: time-independent and time-averaged. In all situations we consider three cases: when there is no electron-phonon interaction, when the dot electrons interact with optical phonons or when they interact with acoustic phonons. At finite temperatures we take into account the temperature dependence of the chemical potential. We treat the electron-phonon interaction by the canonical transformation method. In the case of electron-longitudinal optical phonon interaction the spectrum contains a subpeak. In the case of electron-acoustic phonon interaction the spectrum is continuous. In the time-averaged situation many parasite peaks appear in the spectrum, due to the external time-modulation.

New [3+3] Schiff-base macrocycles and their complexes
Creators: name: Gallant, Amanda Jane
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: A series of conjugated [3+3] Schiff-base macrocycles containing both a central crown ether-like pocket and three tetradentate N[sub 2]O[sub 2] binding sites were prepared and investigated. The formation mechanism was investigated through the synthesis and study of macrocycle fragments. Further understanding of the macrocycle conformations and dynamics was obtained through computational studies. A monoreduced macrocycle where one of the six imines has been reduced was obtained as a by-product of macrocycle formation. Reactivity studies and deuterium labeling investigations revealed that the selective reducing agent is likely a benzimidazoline. This intermediate is generated in situ during the formation of the nonreduced macrocycle and with macrocycle reduction is converted to a stable benzimidazole unit. Upon addition of small cations, the conjugated Schiff-base macrocycles assemble into tubular structures. Spectroscopic and mass spectrometric studies have shown that the cations bind to the crown ether-like centre of the macrocycle and induce aggregation to form structures composed of alternating cations and macrocycles. With the addition of seven equivalents of Zn[sup 2+] or Cd[sup 2+] to these fully conjugated macrocycles surprising heptametallic complexes were obtained. Here, the trimetallated macrocycle is first formed (with metal ions bound to the three N[sub 2]O[sub 2] pockets) and then this templates the formation of a [M[sub 4]O][sub 6+] cluster that caps the cone-shaped macrocycle. NMR studies indicated that these zinc complexes dimerize under certain solvent conditions forming capsule-like structures resembling cavitands used in host-guest chemistry. Variations of these [3+3] Schiff-base macrocycles were prepared by modifying the substituents of the diformyl diol unit. In this way naphthalene-based macrocycles were prepared. Studies on a series of related model compounds revealed that the ketoenamine isomer is stabilized in these macrocycles rather than the enolimine isomer as observed in the analogous phenyl-based macrocycles.
title: An ultra-flexible 3-channel receive-only coil array for 3T magnetic resonance imaging made of coaxial transmission line resonators
Creators: name: Obermann, Michael

Subjects: subject: Magnetic Resonance
subject: Spectroscopic Imaging

description: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a well established technique in non-invasive medical imaging with high soft tissue contrast and the advantage of working without ionizing radiation. High-frequency coils are used to excite the nuclear spins as well as to receive the MR signal, which have their resonance frequency at the Larmor frequency of the examined atomic nuclei. A dynamic field of research in this context is the improvement of the achieved signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). For this purpose, several small coil elements can be combined to form a so-called ”array”. By using several coils, undesired couplings occur between them, which can be reduced to a minimum both by a well-thought-out arrangement of the elements (geometric decoupling) within the array and by an appropriate interface (preamplifier decoupling). In addition, the SNR increases if the coils are close to the area to be investigated. Standard coil arrays made of copper wire have a fixed soldered interface and are rigid. Due to the inelastic arrangement of the coil elements, good geometric decoupling is possible. The presented diploma thesis describes the development and construction of an ultra-flexible, 3-channel receive-only coil array for 3 Tesla magnetic resonance imaging. The array consists of three so-called coaxial coils, each with its own interface. In contrast to standard coils, coaxial cables are used as resonators. Through gaps of the inner and outer conductor, the dielectric becomes the capacitance and the entire structure resonates. There are only solder joints at the coil terminal, so this coil design is far more flexible than that of the standard coils, which have soldered capacitances inside the coil wire. If very thin coaxial cables are used, extremely flexible and also very light coils can be built with many new application possibilities for magnetic resonance imaging. One example is the Bracoil-project, which deals with the construction of a T-shirt-like array for breast MR. The flexible elements fit very well to the patients body shape.

description: A two-temperature magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) model, which evolves the electron and ion temperatures separately, is implemented in the PSI-Tet code and used to model plasma dynamics in the HIT-SI experiment. When compared with single-temperature Hall-MHD, the two-temperature Hall-MHD model demonstrates improved qualitative agreement with experimental measurements, including: far-infrared interferometry, ion Doppler spectroscopy, Thomson scattering, and magnetic probe measurements. The two-temperature model is utilized for HIT-SI simulations in both the PSI-Tet and NIMROD codes at a number of different injector frequencies in the 14.5-68.5 kHz range. At all frequencies the two-temperature models result in increased toroidal current, lower chord-averaged density, and symmetrization of the current centroid, relative to single-temperature simulations. Both codes produce higher average temperatures and toroidal currents as the injector frequency is increased. Power balance and heat fluxes to the wall are calculated for the two-temperature PSI-Tet model and indicate considerable viscous and compressive heating, particularly at high injector frequency. Parameter scans are also presented for the artificial diffusivity, and Dirichlet wall temperature and density. Artificial diffusivity and the density boundary condition both significantly modify the plasma density profiles, leading to larger average temperatures, higher toroidal current, and increased relative density fluctuations at low diffusivity and low wall density. High power, low density simulations at 14.5 kHz achieve sufficiently high gain (G = 5) to generate significant volumes of closed flux lasting 1-2 injector periods.

description: Totally 1304 men were included in the conventional analysis to determine the spermatozoa morphology. Deviations from the normal morphological status were found in 16.5% of them. The identified morphological abnormalities were analyzed by groups and their frequency of occurrence was determined, both individually and in various combinations. The established anomalies, in descending order according to their frequency, were as follows: tapered heads (95.2%); neck defects (88%); amorphous heads (87.2%); microcephalic – with small heads (79.2%); excess residual cytoplasm (48.8%); macrocephalic – with large heads (42.4%); tail defects (39.2%), double heads (25.6%), acephalic (<0.08%). In the studied individuals there were various complexes of morphological anomalies, which are discussed in detail. The information concerning environmental and lifestyle factors was collected on the base of voluntarily completed questionnaire. The results obtained showed that about 21% of the participants were undergoing occupational hazards, 22% were smokers, 42% alcohol consumers, 13% – drug users, 7% taking anabolic steroids, 31% – taking medications and 5% work or live under stress. Some of the men surveyed were influenced by multiple of the mentioned factors. Statistical analysis demonstrated differences in the clarity of the relationship between the established abnormal spermatozoa morphology and the studied environmental and lifestyle factors. The results of the study showed the presence of statistical significance in the relations "harmfulness – spermatozoa morphology" (P<0.017) and "occupations – spermatozoa morphology" (P<0.003).

description: A geometry-based mechanism for inducing circulation of photons is illustrated by a metastructure consisting of quantum dots arranged in a triangle coupled to photonic structures. The coupling between the photons and the excitons in the quantum dots leads to a photon blockade and limits the number of photons participating in the transport. In the steady state described by the quantum master equation of photons, the local photonic currents exhibit distinct circulation patterns, which originate from the wave nature in a multi-path geometry. The geometry-based mechanism does not require an artificial gauge field from light-matter interactions. The phase diagrams showing where different patterns of circulation can be found saturate as the number of photons allowed on each site increases. By using the third-quantization formalism, we show the circulation survives without any photon blockade in the noninteracting case. Moreover, we demonstrate the decoupling of the direction of the local current from the density difference and propose possible applications of the local photonic transport.

description: Dans le secteur agricole, à l’heure où plusieurs crises alimentaires récentes ont porté les modes d’élevage industriel à la connaissance des consommateurs, on assiste à un processus de valorisation de l’élevage en prairies en tant que « nouveau » modèle professionnel. L’analyse s’attache à identifier, dans le cas des marais charentais, la façon dont s’installe et opère ce processus de (re)définition des « bons » agriculteurs : par quels jeux d’acteurs, au travers de quels débats et sur quelles scènes de discussion ? L’évolution des systèmes de normes qui fondent l’exercice d’une activité est analysée dans ses interactions avec les configurations socioprofessionnelles propres au monde agricole et les relations avec d’autres acteurs. La situation étudiée illustre de façon exemplaire le fait qu’aujourd’hui la définition des critères de qualification professionnelle n’est plus seulement interne au milieu professionnel agricole. Elle renvoie aussi à un processus de discussion avec de « nouveaux » acteurs qui interviennent autour de et sur l’agriculture.

description: Title: Comparison between the Λ\LambdaΛCDM Model and the Unified Theory of Informational Spin (TGU) with ϵ(r)−12\epsilon(r)^{-12}ϵ(r)−12 using Type Ia Supernovae

Abstract:This study presents a comparative analysis between the standard Λ\LambdaΛCDM cosmological model and the Unified Theory of Informational Spin (TGU) incorporating the coherence factor ϵ(r)−12\epsilon(r)^{-12}ϵ(r)−12. Using observational data from Type Ia supernovae, we demonstrate that the refined TGU model provides a significantly superior fit compared to Λ\LambdaΛCDM. The analysis includes a detailed statistical evaluation using Mean Squared Error (MSE) and reduced chi-squared (χ2\chi^2χ2), showing that the TGU model can explain cosmic expansion without the need for dark energy. These findings suggest that informational coherence plays a crucial role in large-scale cosmology.

description: A simple quasiparticle model, motivated by lowest-order perturbative QCD, is proposed. It is applied to interpret the lattice QCD equation of state. A reasonable reproduction of the lattice data is obtained. In contrast to existing quasiparticle models, the present model is formulated in dynamical rather than thermodynamical terms, and is easily applicable to a system with finite baryon density. In particular, the model simulates the confinement property.

description: As popularity of algebraic effects and handlers increases, so does a demand for their efficient execution. Eff, an ML-like language with native support for handlers, has a subtyping-based effect system on which an effect-aware optimizing compiler could be built. Unfortunately, in our experience, implementing optimizations for Eff is overly error-prone because its core language is implicitly-typed, making code transformations very fragile. To remedy this, we present an explicitly-typed polymorphic core calculus for algebraic effect handlers with a subtyping-based type-and-effect system. It reifies appeals to subtyping in explicit casts with coercions that witness the subtyping proof, quickly exposing typing bugs in program transformations. Our typing-directed elaboration comes with a constraint-based inference algorithm that turns an implicitly-typed Eff-like language into our calculus. Moreover, all coercions and effect information can be erased in a straightforward way, demonstrating that coercions have no computational content. Additionally, we present a monadic translation from our calculus into a pure language without algebraic effects or handlers, using the effect information to introduce monadic constructs only where necessary.

description: Suite au repli de l’agriculture sur les zones les plus productives, de nombreuses terres agricoles se sont boisées naturellement au cours des trois dernières décennies. Les paysages ruraux des zones de moyenne montagne ont changé à tel point que certains acteurs du monde rural parlent de « fermeture du paysage ». Après une évocation rapide de l’émergence de cette thématique sur la scène institutionnelle nationale et locale, nous verrons comment les habitants du causse de Sauveterre (Lozère) perçoivent au quotidien ces dynamiques paysagères. En effet, si les institutions agricoles et environnementales font de la question de la fermeture des paysages un enjeu en termes de biodiversité notamment, les habitants traduisent cette problématique en d’autres termes. Pour eux, l’embroussaillement des anciennes terres de parcours reflètent avant tout une recomposition profonde des liens sociaux. Ils sont aussi très attentifs aux défrichements qui ne signifient pas seulement une « réouverture des paysages », mais s’avèrent être aussi une occasion de redéfinir les droits des différents usagers de l’espace.
The study of homo- and hetero-substituted de novo four-helix bundle proteins
Creators: name: Huttunen, Heidi Esther Katrina
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The ability to design, synthesize and characterize de novo proteins can help facilitate the understanding of how individual amino acids contribute to the stability and structure of a protein. The de novo approach can be extended to include the use of templates, which assist in the organization of the peptides to form predetermined three-dimensional structures. These template assembled de novo proteins have been named "caviteins" (cavitand + protein).[See thesis for diagram]. One of the challenges in this area of research is the ability to design and synthesize native-like de novo proteins. Previously two caviteins, LG2 and LG3, had shown some nativelike characteristics, although the evidence for a completely native-like structure remained debatable. The approach to identify a native-like structure was to design a corresponding protein that would exhibit non native-like properties. The leucine residues of LG2 and LG3 were replaced with norleucine residues in NG2 and NG3, respectively. The norleucine-based caviteins were less native-like in structure, as speculated, than their leucine-based counterparts. In the past, the designed caviteins were limited to having only one type of peptide sequence attached within one bundle. Here, the design of a hetero-TASP, i.e. two different sequences within one bundle, was explored, and provided a means to create various de novo proteins, including an anti-parallel four-helix bundle. The hetero-TASPs were characterized and found to exhibit different native-like properties depending on the attached peptide sequences, and helix orientations. Lastly, the N - and C-capping efficiency of glycine was examined. Caviteins having, peptides linked to the cavitand template via their N - and C-termini, and with and without glycine caps were synthesized and characterized. It was found that the caviteins lacking glycine caps at their respective helix termini were comparable in stability with their capped-counterparts, which was contrary to what was hypothesized. It has been shown that subtle changes in the peptide sequence, linker and helix orientation have dramatic effects on the overall cavitein structure and stability. Since many of the factors underlying the stability and structure of four-helix bundles are now well understood, it would be exciting to undertake the challenges of designing caviteins with specific applications.

description: In this work we consider black holes surrounded by anisotropic fluids in four dimensions. We first study the causal structure of these solutions showing some similarities and differences with Reissner-Nordström-de Sitter black holes. In addition, we consider scalar perturbations on this background geometry and compute the corresponding quasinormal modes. Moreover, we discuss the late-time behavior of the perturbations finding an interesting new feature, i.e., the presence of a subdominant power-law tail term. Likewise, we compute the Bekenstein entropy bound and the first semiclassical correction to the black hole entropy using the brick wall method, showing their universality. Finally, we also discuss the thermodynamical stability of the model.

description: In the process of analysis of agricultural and weather factors influence on winter wheat yields it was revealed that the critical factors for the yield formation are (totally in Ukraine): the quantity of days with temperatures below 17 degrees of frost Celcius; the quantity and intensity of precipitation; quantity of days with temperatures exceeded 0 and 5 degrees of heat Celsius in winter time period. All above listed weather changes effect historical yields and make them differ very much year to year. Thus, using above listed factors winter wheat yield equalizations and coefficients that may be used for yield forecast were calculated. The consistency of the equalization’s results for winter wheat production was discovered for total Ukraine winter wheat production number. But these equalization’s coefficients need to be corrected with simple regression equalization every year. Correlation coefficients between the real yield and estimated yield under the calculated equalizations is 0.71 and 0.64, when p < 0.01. As yield is the main factor of winter wheat production in Ukraine, so this method could be used for estimation of wheat production and used for official wheat crop prognosis to lead the agricultural policy in Ukraine.
