description: Centrality-dependent double-differential transverse momentum spectra of charged pions, kaons, and (anti)protons produced in mid-pseudorapidity interval in $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=200$ GeV gold-gold and deuteron-gold collisions with different centralities are analyzed by the blast-wave model with Boltzmann-Gibbs statistics. Meanwhile, the mentioned spectra in mid-rapidity interval in $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=2.76$ TeV lead-lead and $\sqrt{s_{NN}}=5.02$ TeV proton-lead collisions with different centralities are analyzed by the same model. The model results are approximately in agreement with the experimental data in special transverse momentum ranges. It is shown that with the increase of event centrality and energy, the kinetic freeze-out temperature of the emission source and the transverse flow velocity of the produced particles slightly increase in some cases but they do not give an obvious change in other cases. Meanwhile, the kinetic freeze-out temperature (transverse flow velocity) increases (decreases) with the increase of particle mass. The average transverse momentum and initial temperature increase with the increase of event centrality, collision energy, and particle mass. This work also confirms the maximum size dependent effect, which states that the main parameters such as the kinetic freeze-out temperature and transverse flow velocity are mainly determined by the heaviest nucleus from proton-nucleus to nucleus-nucleus collisions.

description: Introduction: Chikungunya virus is amongst the fastest expanding vector transmissible diseases in recent years and has been causing massive epidemics in Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Caribbean. Despite human infection by this virus being first described in the 1950s, there is a lack of adequate therapeutic evaluations to guide evidence-based recommendations. The current guidelines rely heavily in specialists’ opinion and experience instead of using higher rated evidence. Areas covered: A systematic review of the literature was performed- not restricted to clinical trials – reporting the therapeutic response against this infection with the intent to gather the best evidence of the treatment options against musculoskeletal disorders following chikungunya fever. The 15 studies included in the analysis were categorized considering the initiation of treatment during the acute, subacute and chronic phase. Expert commentary: This review demonstrates the complexity of chikungunya fever and difficulty of therapeutic management. This review found no current evidence-based treatment recommendations for the musculoskeletal disorders following chikungunya fever. To provide an optimal treatment that prevents perpetuation or progression of chikungunya infection to a potentially destructive and permanent condition without causing more harm is an aim that must be pursued by researchers and health professionals working with this disease.

description: We introduce a simple sub-universal quantum computing model, which we call the Hadamard-classical circuit with one-qubit (HC1Q) model. It consists of a classical reversible circuit sandwiched by two layers of Hadamard gates, and therefore it is in the second level of the Fourier hierarchy. We show that output probability distributions of the HC1Q model cannot be classically efficiently sampled within a multiplicative error unless the polynomial-time hierarchy collapses to the second level. The proof technique is different from those used for previous sub-universal models, such as IQP, Boson Sampling, and DQC1, and therefore the technique itself might be useful for finding other sub-universal models that are hard to classically simulate. We also study the classical verification of quantum computing in the second level of the Fourier hierarchy. To this end, we define a promise problem, which we call the probability distribution distinguishability with maximum norm (PDD-Max). It is a promise problem to decide whether output probability distributions of two quantum circuits are far apart or close. We show that PDD-Max is BQP-complete, but if the two circuits are restricted to some types in the second level of the Fourier hierarchy, such as the HC1Q model or the IQP model, PDD-Max has a Merlin-Arthur system with quantum polynomial-time Merlin and classical probabilistic polynomial-time Arthur.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

The reports of thick discs' deaths are greatly exaggerated: thick discs are NOT artefacts caused by diffuse scattered light

description: Recent studies have made the community aware of scattered light when examining low-surface-brightness galaxy features such as thick discs. In our past studies of the thick discs of edge-on galaxies in the Spitzer Survey of Stellar Structure in Galaxies (S$^4$G) we modelled the point spread function as a Gaussian. We re-examine our results using a revised point spread function model that accounts for extended wings out to more than 2.5arcmin. We study the $3.6μ{\rm m}$ images of 141 edge-on galaxies from the S$^4$G. We decompose the surface brightness profiles of the galaxies perpendicular to their mid-planes assuming that discs are made of two stellar discs in hydrostatic equilibrium. We decompose the axial surface brightness profiles of galaxies to model the central mass concentration - described by a Sérsic function - and the disc - described by a broken exponential disc. Our improved treatment confirms the ubiquity of thick discs. The main difference between our current fits and those presented before is that now the scattered light from the thin disc dominates the surface brightness at levels below $μ\sim26\,{\rm mag\,arcsec^{-2}}$. This does not affect drastically any of our previously presented results: 1) Thick discs are nearly ubiquitous. They are not an artefact caused by scattered light as has been suggested elsewhere. 2) Thick discs have masses comparable to those of thin discs in low-mass galaxies - circular velocities $v_{\rm c}<120\,{\rm km\,s^{-1}}$ - whereas they are typically less massive than the thin discs in high-mass galaxies. 3) Thick discs and central mass concentrations seem to have formed at the same epoch from a common material reservoir. 4) Roughly 60% of the up-bending breaks in face-on galaxies are caused by the superposition of a thin and a thick disc where the scale-length of the latter is the largest.

description: We have constructed a complete action for the system of N D0-branes in flat 10D type IIA superspace. It is invariant under the rigid spacetime supersymmetry and local worldline supersymmetry ($κ$-symmetry). This latter can be considered as supersymmetry of maximal 1d SU(N) SYM model which is made local by coupling to supergravity induced by embedding of the center of energy worldline into the target superspace. The spinor moving frame technique is essentially used to achieve such a coupling. We discuss the differences with Panda-Sorokin multiple 0-brane action and with the dimensionally reduced 11D multiple M-wave action.

description: The Balkan Peninsula is a European biodiversity hotspot, home to unique endemic species like the Graylings (genus Pseudochazara) (Lepidoptera: Nymphalidae: Satyrinae). In July 2017, the first author discovered an unknown Pseudochazara population near Krastë, central Albania, over 130 km from known populations in south-eastern Albania and north-western Greece. Another population was found in July 2022 near Lurë in the same massif. Initially classified as P. tisiphone Brown, 1981 in the atlas "Fluturat e Shqipërisë," this study shows these populations evolved allopatrically due to geographical isolation. We present new findings based on unpublished data from multiple expeditions between 2015–2023, and through an extended comparison with related Pseudochazara populations. We conducted a comprehensive biometric analysis of morphologic traits in males and females (habitus, androconial scales, and genitalia) alongside a systematic differentiation based on the mt COI gene from specimens collected in Albania and Greece. Our results show that the central Albanian populations found in the eastern belt of the Mirdita zone in the vast inner Albanides Massif are distinct from known P. tisiphone populations in the western ophiolitic belt, and the surroundings of the Pindos Massif in Greece. Systematic positioning indicated these populations form a distinct monophyletic cluster, closely related to sister species P. orestes and P. tisiphone, but genetically closer to P. orestes. Morphologically, they exhibit intermediate traits and unique androconial scales, similar to P. cingovskii Gross, 1971 from North Macedonia. Based on current taxonomic insights, we describe the unique populations from central Albania as a new cryptic species within the 'P. hippolyte' clade of the genus, Pseudochazara misjai Parmentier, sp. nov.This paper further discusses our integrative analysis and emphasizes the importance of conservation efforts in Albania, hosting the exclusive habitats of this new species and being a stronghold for rare Pseudochazara species in Europe.

Interference effects of deleterious and beneficial mutations in large asexual populations

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Populations and Evolution (q-bio.PE)
subject: FOS: Biological sciences

description: Linked beneficial and deleterious mutations are known to decrease the fixation probability of a favorable mutation in large asexual populations. While the hindering effect of strongly deleterious mutations on adaptive evolution has been well studied, how weak deleterious mutations, either in isolation or with superior beneficial mutations, influence the fixation of a beneficial mutation has not been fully explored. Here, using a multitype branching process, we obtain an accurate analytical expression for the fixation probability when deleterious effects are weak, and exploit this result along with the clonal interference theory to investigate the joint effect of linked beneficial and deleterious mutations on the rate of adaptation. We find that when the mutation rate is increased beyond the beneficial fitness effect, the fixation probability of the beneficial mutant decreases from Haldane's classical result towards zero. This has the consequence that above a critical mutation rate that may depend on the population size, the adaptation rate decreases exponentially with the mutation rate and is independent of the population size. In addition, we find that for a range of mutation rates, both beneficial and deleterious mutations interfere and impede the adaptation process in large populations. We also study the evolution of mutation rates in adapting asexual populations, and conclude that linked beneficial mutations have a stronger influence on mutator fixation than the deleterious mutations.
The use of the term ‘radiosensitivity’ through history of radiation: from clarity to confusion

description: Purposes: The term ‘radiosensitivity’ appeared for the first time at the beginning of the 20th century, few years after the discovery of X-rays. Initially used by French and German radiologists, it illustrated the risk of radiation-induced (RI) skin reactions. From the 1950s, ‘radiosensitivity’ was progressively found to describe other features of RI response such as RI cancers or cataracts. To date, such confusion may raise legal issues and complexify the message addressed to general public. Here, through an historical review, we aimed to better understand how this confusion appeared. Methods: To support our historical review, a quantitative and qualitative wording analysis of the ‘radiosensitivity’ occurrences and its derived terms was performed with Google books, Pubmed, Web of Science™ databases, and in all the ICRP publications. Conclusions: While ‘radiosensitivity’ was historically related to RI adverse tissue events attributable to cell death, the first efforts to quantify the RI risk specific to each organ/tissue revealed some different semantic fields that are not necessarily compatible together (e.g. adverse tissue events for skin, cataracts for eyes, RI cancer for breast or thyroid). To avoid such confusion, we propose to keep the historical definition of ‘radiosensitivity’ to any clinical and cellular consequences of radiation attributable to cell death and to introduce the term ‘radiosusceptibility’ to describe the RI cancers or any feature that is attributable to cell transformation.

description: We propose a method to find asymptotic states of a class of periodically modulated open systems which are outside the range of validity of the Floquet theory due to the presence of memory effects. The method is based on a Floquet treatment of the time-local, memoryless dynamics taking place in a minimally enlarged state space where the original system is coupled to auxiliary -- typically non-physical -- variables. A projection of the Floquet solution into the physical subspace returns the sought asymptotic state of the system. The spectral gap of the Floquet propagator acting in the enlarged state space can be used to estimate the relaxation time. We illustrate the method with a modulated version of quantum random walk model.

description: In this article, $q$-regular sequences in the sense of Allouche and Shallit are analysed asymptotically. It is shown that the summatory function of a regular sequence can asymptotically be decomposed as a finite sum of periodic fluctuations multiplied by a scaling factor. Each of these terms corresponds to an eigenvalue of the sum of matrices of a linear representation of the sequence; only the eigenvalues of absolute value larger than the joint spectral radius of the matrices contribute terms which grow faster than the error term. The paper has a particular focus on the Fourier coefficients of the periodic fluctuations: They are expressed as residues of the corresponding Dirichlet generating function. This makes it possible to compute them in an efficient way. The asymptotic analysis deals with Mellin--Perron summations and uses two arguments to overcome convergence issues, namely Hölder regularity of the fluctuations together with a pseudo-Tauberian argument. Apart from the very general result, three examples are discussed in more detail: sequences defined as the sum of outputs written by a transducer when reading a $q$-ary expansion of the input; the amount of esthetic numbers in the first~$N$ natural numbers; and the number of odd entries in the rows of Pascal's rhombus. For these examples, very precise asymptotic formulæ are presented. In the latter two examples, prior to this analysis only rough estimates were known.

description: To store information at extremely high-density and data-rate, we propose to adapt, integrate, and extend the techniques developed by chemists and molecular biologists for the purpose of manipulating biological and other macromolecules. In principle, volumetric densities in excess of 10^21 bits/cm^3 can be achieved when individual molecules having dimensions below a nanometer or so are used to encode the 0's and 1's of a binary string of data. In practice, however, given the limitations of electron-beam lithography, thin film deposition and patterning technologies, molecular manipulation in submicron dimensions, etc., we believe that volumetric storage densities on the order of 10^16 bits/cm^3 (i.e., petabytes per cubic centimeter) should be readily attainable, leaving plenty of room for future growth. The unique feature of the proposed new approach is its focus on the feasibility of storing bits of information in individual molecules, each only a few angstroms in size.

Aim To identify the impact of COVID-19 measures on sexual behaviors and sexual satisfaction in Luxembourg residents. Methods We conducted a cross-sectional online survey of adults (> 18 years of age) residing in Luxembourg, while COVID-19 restrictions were in place. The survey was available from January 15 to February 12, 2021 in four languages (French, German, English and Portuguese). Survey questions focused on masturbation, cuddling, condom use, sex frequency, sexting, cybersex, watching porn, and sexual satisfaction. Results 557 volunteers completed the survey (35.5% men, 64.3% women). Sexual satisfaction and sexual problems variables were assessed on 4-point Likert scales (0 = not at all/never to 3 = very/often). Sexual problems increased during the COVID-19 measures while sexual satisfaction decreased compared to before the introduction of COVID-19 restrictions (assessed retrospectively). Factors associated with increased odds of sexual satisfaction included having a steady relationship before COVID-19 restrictions, engaging in sexting, reporting good mental health and not altering alcohol intake. Conclusions The context of the COVID-19 pandemic and the measures implemented in Luxembourg affected sexual behaviors and sexual satisfaction. Sexual and reproductive health care centers and health professionals in general should take these results into consideration when providing care. Recommendations on the importance of sexual health for general wellbeing and behaviors associated with sexual satisfaction should be offered and possibilities to experience sexuality while reducing contamination risks be discussed.

description: In 1994, it was conjectured by Fan and Raspaud that every simple bridgeless cubic graph has three perfect matchings whose intersection is empty. In this paper we answer a question recently proposed by Mkrtchyan and Vardanyan, by giving an equivalent formulation of the Fan-Raspaud Conjecture. We also study a possibly weaker conjecture originally proposed by the first author, which states that in every simple bridgeless cubic graph there exist two perfect matchings such that the complement of their union is a bipartite graph. Here, we show that this conjecture can be equivalently stated using a variant of Petersen-colourings, we prove it for graphs having oddness at most four and we give a natural extension to bridgeless cubic multigraphs and to certain cubic graphs having bridges.

description: Understanding the nature of the Dark Matter (DM) is one of the current challenges in modern astrophysics and cosmology. Knowing the properties of the DM particle would shed light on physics beyond the Standard Model and even provide us with details of the early Universe. In fact, the detection of such a relic would bring us information from the pre-Big Bang Nucleosynthesis (BBN) period, an epoch from which we have no data, and could even hint at inflationary physics. In this work, we assume that the expansion rate of the Universe after inflationary is governed by the kinetic energy of a scalar field $ϕ$, in the so-called "kination" model. We assume that the $ϕ$ field decays into both radiation and DM particles, which we take to be Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs). The present abundance of WIMPs is then fixed during the kination period through either a thermal "freeze-out" or "freeze-in" mechanism, or through a non-thermal process governed by the decay of $ϕ$. We explore the parameter space of this theory with the requirement that the present WIMP abundance provides the correct DM relic budget. Requiring that BBN occurs during the standard cosmological scenario sets a limit on the temperature at which the kination period ends. Using this limit and assuming the WIMP has a mass $m_χ= 100\,$GeV, we obtain that the thermally-averaged WIMP annihilation cross section has to satisfy the constraints $4 \times 10^{-16}{\rm \,GeV^{-2}} \lesssim \langleσv\rangle \lesssim 2\times 10^{-5} {\rm \,GeV^{-2}}$ in order for having at least one of the production mechanism to yield the observed amount of DM. This result shows how the properties of the WIMP particle, if ever measured, can yield information on the pre-BBN content of the Universe.

The use of the term “radiosensitivity” through history of radiation: from clarity to confusion.

description: Purposes: The term “radiosensitivity” appeared for the first time at the beginning of the 20th century, few years after the discovery of X-rays. Initially used by French and German radiologists, it illustrated the risk of radiation-induced (RI) skin reactions. From the 1950’s, “radiosensitivity” was progressively found to describe other features of RI response such as RI cancers or cataracts. To date, such confusion may raise legal issues and complexify the message addressed to general public. Here, through an historical review, we aimed to better understand how this confusion appeared. Methods: To support our historical review, a quantitative and qualitative wording analysis of the “radiosensitivity” occurrences and its derived terms was performed with Google books, Pubmed, Web of Science™ databases and in all the ICRP publications. Conclusions: While “radiosensitivity” was historically related to RI adverse tissue events attributable to cell death, the first efforts to quantify the RI risk specific to each organ/tissue revealed some different semantic fields that are not necessarily compatible together (e.g. adverse tissue events for skin, cataracts for eyes, RI cancer for breast or thyroid). To avoid such confusion, we propose to keep the historical definition of “radiosensitivity” to any clinical and cellular consequences of radiation attributable to cell death and to introduce the term “radiosusceptibility” to describe the RI cancers or any feature that is attributable to cell transformation.

description: The INCULTUM project is based on a participatory approach where local communities and stakeholders play a direct and important role in the implementation of pilot actions. The ratio behind their involvement is to promote a positive impact of participatory models and avoiding negative effects of tourism for social relationships, local cultural heritage, or landscape preservation. Therefore, this report aims to create a solid foundation for the implementation of tasks in WP4. It is directly related to Task 4.1 In-depth analysis of participatory models. This report defines the key terms of participatory models in culture, tourism, and sustainable development, based on literature review, knowledge, and experience from previous empirical studies and implemented research projects.

Advantaged Identity Management Measure

description: This project aims to validate a measure of different strategies members of historically advantaged groups may use to manage their advantaged identity. The measure is based on Knowles, et al. (2014) Deny, Distance, Dismantle theory, which states that advantaged group members may attempt to cope with their privileged identity and the identity threats it poses by denying the existence of group-based privilege, distancing themselves from their advantaged identity and/or its benefits, or dismantling and actively fighting inequality. In addition, we have added one other identity management strategy, Defend, where advantaged group members may legitimize or justify their groups privilege and the existence of social inequality.
Making artificial $\textit{p}_{x,y}$-orbital honeycomb electron lattice on metal surface

description: We theoretically demonstrate that the desired $p_{x,y}$-orbital honeycomb electron lattice can be readily realized by arranging CO molecules into a hexagonal lattice on Cu(111) surface with scanning tunneling microscopy (STM). The electronic structure of the Cu surface states in the presence of CO molecules is calculated with various methods, \textit{i.e.}~DFT simulations, muffin-tin potential model and tight-binding model. Our calculations indicate that, by measuring the LDOS pattern using STM, the $p$-orbital surface bands can be immediately identified in experiment. We also give an analytic interpretation of the $p$-orbital LDOS pattern with $k \cdot p$ method. Meanwhile, different from the case of graphene, the $p$-orbital honeycomb lattice has two kinds of edge states, which can also be directly observed in STM experiment. Our work points out a feasible way to construct a $p_{x,y}$-orbital honeycomb electron lattice in a real system, which may have exotic properties, such as Wigner crystal, ferromagnetism, $f$-wave superconductivity, quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) effect. Furthermore, we also propose a simple way to calculate and identify the modified Cu surface bands in the Cu/CO systems with the DFT simulations. Considering the recent works about $p$-orbital square lattice in similar systems [M. R. Slot, \textit{et al.} Nat. Phys. \textbf{13}, 672 (2017); Liang Ma, \textit{et al.} Phys. Rev. B \textbf{99}, 205403 (2019)], our work once again illustrates that the artificial electron lattice on metal surface is an ideal platform to study the orbital physics in a controllable way.

description: A fiber-fed Echelle spectrograph at 2.3 m Vainu Bappu Telescope (VBT), Kavalur, has been in operation since 2005. Owing to various technological advancements in precision spectroscopy in recent years, several research avenues have been opened in observational astronomy. These developments have created a demand to improve the Doppler precision of our spectrograph. Currently, the stability of the instrument is compromised by the temperature and pressure fluctuations inside the Echelle room. Further, a better wavelength calibration approach is needed to carefully track and disentangle the instrumental effects from stellar spectra. While planning a possible upgrade with an Iodine absorption gas cell, we measured the raw stability of the spectrograph using a series of calibration frames taken with the ThAr gas discharge lamp. The time series data were analysed with cross-correlation method and the shift in ThAr emission lines was accurately measured across different Echelle orders. In this paper, we present our stability analysis methodology and results for the Kavalur spectrograph. We also identify possible sources of error and discuss our strategy to mitigate them.
