description: The URBANWASTE Mobilization and Mutual Learning orients and defines the actions to empower stakeholders and citizens towards the development and the implementation of the eco-innovative and gender-sensitive waste management strategies and to promote those towards decision makers and relevant stakeholders. The MMLP guides the consultation process and structure the way feedback is provided: this results in a new concept of participatory and science-based decision making and planning for waste management. The MMLP defines specific actions to be performed and propose instruments to be used to ensure stakeholders engagement, facilitate an inclusive and constructive dialogue and ensure processing of the feedbacks. The MMLP have been built around the concept of the Communities of Practice (CoPs), tested under the BRIDGE project20. CoPs are usually a spontaneous phenomenon among people who share common interests and passion who meet to learn from each other. CoPs will be built in each URBANWASTE pilot case and will have 4 well-defined and compulsory meetings opportunities proposed by the local municipalities in different forms (big events, workshops, round tables, working groups).

The role of the municipalities, supported by task leades and the guidelines provided in the MMLP, will be to provide inputs for discussion - such as the results of the urban metabolism and behavioural analysis, the presentation of best ptractices - and to guide those towards the development of eco-innovative strategies and selected measures. The MMLP also identifies specific roles within the staff of the cities (CoP coordinator) and set a defined timeline to implement the actions. The calendar and the topics of the mutual learning events have also been included in this deliverable.

Haidomyrmex

description: • Haidomyrmex cerberus Dlussky
 – the first hell ant was named 20 years ago by the prolific paleomyrmecologist Gennady Dlussky (Dlussky, 1996). Haidomyrmex cerberus was described from a single partial worker specimen, providing the basis for what are now tribal synapomorphies for the Haidomyrmecini, established by Bolton (2003) and revised by Perrichot et al. (2016): unusual L-shaped mandibles and a bulging clypeus possessing a clypeal brush comprising dense, stout setae.

description: We present a study of correlations among conserved charges like baryon number, electric charge and strangeness in the framework of 2+1 flavor Polyakov loop extended Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model at vanishing chemical potentials, up to fourth order. Correlations up to second order have been measured in Lattice QCD which compares well with our estimates given the inherent difference in the pion masses in the two systems. Possible physical implications of these correlations and their importance in understanding the matter obtained in heavy-ion collisions are discussed. We also present comparison of the results with the commonly used unbound effective potential in the quark sector of this model.

description: We study the critical phenomena of Kerr-AdS black hole. Phase structures are observed at different temperatures, $T_{L}$, $T_{c1}$ and $T_{c2}$ with various features. We discuss the thermal stability considering the isothermal compressibility and how phase transitions related to each other. The asymptotic value of the angular momentum also has an implication on separating stable and unstable part. Near critical temperature $T_{c1}$, the order parameter is determined to calculate the critical exponents. All the critical exponents ($α$,$β$,$γ$,$δ$)=(0,1/2,1,3) are identical to that of mean field systems. We plot the phase diagram near this critical point, and discuss the scaling symmetry of the free energy.

Policing patrimony : an interdisciplinary approach to improve the repatriation of Indigenous cultural property in the United States
Creators: name: Ball, Carson
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: Repatriation of Indigenous cultural property is a complex political process. Through examining the ethical frameworks, international procedures and standards, and perspectives of Indigenous descendant communities, this paper suggests what policies and procedures can promote successful repatriation efforts. Furthermore, this paper utilizes the United States as a case study because of its unique approaches for handling repatriation cases. Domestic cases surrounding the repatriation of Indigenous cultural property are dictated by the Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA), a federal statute that acknowledges cultural sovereignty but is exclusive; whereas, for global repatriation cases, the United States adopted the 1970 UNESCO Convention. Overall, the United States’ system for repatriation was more substantial compared to other nations; however, it still only partially integrates Indigenous people into the repatriation process and leaves an ample number of loopholes that allows looting and illicit trade of cultural property to thrive. To address the challenges that currently exist in the United States’ systems of repatriation and improve global repatriation efforts as a whole, this paper provides a set of six recommendations to promote processes that are more inclusive, less burdensome, and favor Indigenous groups—instead of institutions and private collectors.

description: We provide a simple proof that graphs in a general class of self-similar networks have zero percolation threshold. The considered self-similar networks include random scale-free graphs with given expected node degrees and zero clustering, scale-free graphs with finite clustering and metric structure, growing scale-free networks, and many real networks. The proof and the derivation of the giant component size do not require the assumption that networks are treelike. Our results rely only on the observation that self-similar networks possess a hierarchy of nested subgraphs whose average degree grows with their depth in the hierarchy. We conjecture that this property is pivotal for percolation in networks.

Haidomyrmodes

description: • Haidomyrmodes mammuthus Perrichot, et al.
 – described from both partial gyne and worker specimens, H. mammathus is the only alate specimen yet described (Perrichot et al., 2008). In addition, the type material is the only reported conspecific worker and putative queen caste for any Cretaceous taxon and provides important information regarding sociality in early ants. The description of multiple specimens from an additional locality confirmed beyond any doubt that the highly unusual features observed in H. cerberus were not preservational. Largely similar to H. cerberus, H. mammathus possesses ocelli, which have long been presumed to be an ancestral ant trait (Wilson et al., 1967b).

description: The peculiar motions of galaxies can be used to infer the distribution of matter in the Universe. It has recently been shown that measurements of the peculiar velocity field indicates an anomalously high bulk flow of galaxies in our local volume. In this paper we find the implications of the high bulk flow for the power spectrum of density fluctuations. We find that analyzing only the dipole moment of the velocity field yields an average power spectrum amplitude which is indeed much higher than the LCDM value. However, by also including shear and octupole moments of the velocity field, and marginalizing over possible values for the growth rate, an average power spectrum amplitude which is consistent with LCDM is recovered. We attempt to infer the shape of the matter power spectrum from moments of the velocity field, and find a slight excess of power on scales ~ h-1 Gpc.

description: A remarkable amount of theoretical research has been carried out to elucidate the physical origins of the recently observed long-lived quantum coherence in the electronic energy transfer process in biological photosynthetic systems. Although successful in many respects, several widely used descriptions only include an effective treatment of the protein-chromophore interactions. In this work, by combining an all-atom molecular dynamics simulation, time-dependent density functional theory, and open quantum system approaches, we successfully simulate the dynamics of the electronic energy transfer of the Fenna-Matthews-Olson pigment-protein complex. The resulting characteristic beating of populations and quantum coherences is in good agreement with the experimental results and the hierarchy equation of motion approach. The experimental absorption, linear and circular dichroism spectra and dephasing rates are recovered at two different temperatures. In addition, we provide an extension of our method to include zero-point fluctuations of the vibrational environment. This work thus presents one of the first steps to explain the role of excitonic quantum coherence in photosynthetic light-harvesting complexes based on their atomistic and molecular description.

description: In this paper, we compare dwarf galaxies and galaxy clusters in order to elucidate which object class is the best target for gamma-ray DM searches with imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs). We have built a mixed dwarfs+clusters sample containing some of the most promising nearby dwarf galaxies (Draco, Ursa Minor, Wilman 1 and Segue 1) and local galaxy clusters (Perseus, Coma, Ophiuchus, Virgo, Fornax, NGC5813 and NGC5846), and then compute their DM annihilation flux profiles by making use of the latest modeling of their DM density profiles. We also include in our calculations the effect of DM substructure. Willman 1 appears as the best candidate in the sample. However, its mass modeling is still rather uncertain, so probably other candidates with less uncertainties and quite similar fluxes, namely Ursa Minor and Segue 1, might be better options. As for galaxy clusters, Virgo represents the one with the highest flux. However, its large spatial extension can be a serious handicap for IACT observations and posterior data analysis. Yet, other local galaxy cluster candidates with more moderate emission regions, such as Perseus, may represent good alternatives. After comparing dwarfs and clusters, we found that the former exhibit annihilation flux profiles that, at the center, are roughly one order of magnitude higher than those of clusters, although galaxy clusters can yield similar, or even higher, integrated fluxes for the whole object once substructure is taken into account. Even when any of these objects are strictly point-like according to the properties of their annihilation signals, we conclude that dwarf galaxies are best suited for observational strategies based on the search of point-like sources, while galaxy clusters represent best targets for analyses that can deal with rather extended emissions. Finally, we study the detection prospects for IACTs [ABRIDGED]

description: Measurements of the magnetic susceptibility of Fe/W(110) films with thickness in the range of 1.6 to 2.4 ML Fe, show that in addition to the large response along the easy axis associated with the Curie transition, there is a much smaller, paramagnetic hard axis response that is not consistent with the 2D anisotropic Heisenberg model used to describe homogeneous in-plane ferromagnets with uniaxial anisotropy. The shape, amplitude, and peak temperature of the hard axis susceptibility, as well as its dependence upon layer completion close to 2.0 ML, indicate that inhomogeneities in the films create a system of mixed anisotropy. A likely candidate for inhomogeneities that are magnetically relevant in the critical region are the closed lines of step edges associated with the incomplete layers. According to the Harris criterion, the existence of magnetically relevant inhomogeneities may alter the critical properties of the films from those of a 2D Ising model. Experiments in the recent literature are discussed in this context.

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: The Albrecht Haupt Collection is a collection of European drawings and prints, which became publicly available this year on sah.tib.eu. In this presentation, we describe adoptions of a standard Vitro implemented for indexing environment of an art-historical collection according to the special needs of art-historians on the one hand and linked data principles on the other hand and making it available for further use by experts, broad audience and art-historical Web portals. We also address the technical challenges encountered in the process as well as further developments we are working on.
To describe the items in alignment with standards of cultural data description and export such as the CIDOC CRM and LIDO, the GESAH Graphic Arts Ontology was created as an event-centered ontology. Thus, cultural objects are described by a number of activities like e. g. creation or production, agents having various roles in these activities and other attributes e.g. used technique or material. The ontology and collection metadata has been enriched with PIDs from Art & Architecture Thesaurus, ICONCLASS, Getty Thesaurus of Geographic Names, GND and Wikidata. Apart from the specific ontology, new entry forms and display modifications were implemented in an iterative and user-centered approach based on feedback from art historians for recording and representing metadata related to the collection items. We integrated Cantaloupe IIIF to provide instant access to high definition images. Furthermore we developed a highly customizable search that allows users to limit the results area using various filters. A challenge we are currently facing is exporting collection object descriptions to other formats such as LIDO. We will introduce the Dynamic API for the VIVO project with which we aim to solve the aforementioned challenges.

We present an analytical solution of the problem taking into account the full energy dependence of the transmission coefficient. We identify two transport processes as sources of entanglement between the current carriers by observing positive cross current correlations. Furthermore, we consider ferromagnetic electrodes and show how they can be used as detectors in experiments violating the Bell-Clauser-Horne-Shimony-Holt inequality.

This species extends the temoporal and geographic range of hell ants considerably, indicating that the specialized mouthparts and probable trap-jaw behaviour were evidently successful for some time and over a wide area of Laurasia. Haidoterminus cippus is also unique among haidomyrmecines, possessing an elongate antennal scape somewhat similar to modern ant taxa.

Unpacking homework : Brazilian school children's information interaction ecologies
Creators: name: Figueiredo, Vanessa Da Silva
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: Homework is part of the routine of many primary school children around the globe. Children and, sometimes, more knowledgeable others (e.g., caregivers, family members, peers, teachers) “unpack” homework descriptions to understand the information needed. Seeking and retrieving information to complete homework involves handling contextual constraints (i.e., opportunities and limitations) across school and home settings. While school and home settings enable and limit how children complete homework, we have a limited understanding of how context affects children's information-seeking and retrieval homework strategies. The discrepancy between how youth information interaction studies (YII) frame context and youth's real-life context has led to information systems (e.g., search engines, portals) that do not support youth's agency and information practices. This dissertation addressed this gap by analyzing the interplay between context and agency in information interaction involving primary school students engaged in homework through an ecological qualitative study based on the Cognitive Work Analysis (CWA) framework, using interviews, observations, critical incidents with nine Brazilian child-mother pairs, and interviews and photo-elicitation with five Brazilian elementary school teachers. The findings suggested that the environment, homework domain, homework activities, social organization and coordination, and personal characteristics enable and limit information interaction strategies of the Brazilian primary school children under analysis. To illustrate these findings, this dissertation presented a model representing the homework domain process. To evaluate what information-seeking and retrieval strategies to use, the Brazilian primary school children in this study encountered critical situations (unpacking levels) where more knowledgeable others' support was needed. Those primary school children needed help to analyze (unpack) unfamiliar problem-solving and decision-making situations. A framework representing a cognitive-work analysis in homework domains is presented here. This framework illustrates the relationships across the CWA phases to describe what contextual constraints researchers and designers should consider when developing tools (e.g., information systems) to support YII in homework domains. This study brings a rarely explored ecological perspective on youth information interaction by analyzing the interplay between context and agency in information interaction. Furthermore, this study provides guidelines to support YII in homework domains, which can help to inform the design of inclusive information systems.

Thus, we obtain and study a particular foliation, which covers the existence of most observers in our part of spacetime.

description: • Ceratomyrmex ellenbergeri Perrichot, et al.
 – an exceedingly unusual taxon described from four worker specimens of varying completeness. Retaining the same overall Cretaceous trap-jaw bauplan as other haidomyrmecines, C. ellenbergeri possesses a unique clypeal horn coated ventrally in elongate, tapered setae. The mandibles are correspondingly very long, apparently extended to pin prey between the mandibular points and lengthy clypeal projection. This configuration is a dramatic variant on the trap-jaw syndrome and would appear to confirm vertical mandibular articulation.

description: The critical exponent of an infinite word is defined to be the supremum of the exponent of each of its factors. For k-automatic sequences, we show that this critical exponent is always either a rational number or infinite, and its value is computable. Our results also apply to variants of the critical exponent, such as the initial critical exponent of Berthe, Holton, and Zamboni and the Diophantine exponent of Adamczewski and Bugeaud. Our work generalizes or recovers previous results of Krieger and others, and is applicable to other situations; e.g., the computation of the optimal recurrence constant for a linearly recurrent k-automatic sequence.

description: Periodic incorporation of quantum wells inside a one--dimensional Bragg structure is shown to enhance coherent coupling of excitons to the electromagnetic Bloch waves. We demonstrate strong coupling of quantum well excitons to photonic crystal Bragg modes at the edge of the photonic bandgap, which gives rise to mixed Bragg polariton eigenstates. The resulting Bragg polariton branches are in good agreement with the theory and allow demonstration of Bragg polariton parametric amplification.

description: We show that excitations of interacting quantum particles in lattice models always propagate with a finite speed of sound. Our argument is simple yet general and shows that by focusing on the physically relevant observables one can generally expect a bounded speed of information propagation. The argument applies equally to quantum spins, bosons such as in the Bose-Hubbard model, fermions, anyons, and general mixtures thereof, on arbitrary lattices of any dimension. It also pertains to dissipative dynamics on the lattice, and generalizes to the continuum for quantum fields. Our result can be seen as a meaningful analogue of the Lieb-Robinson bound for strongly correlated models.

description: Whereas most plants are flexible structures that undergo large deformations under flow, another process can occur when the plant is broken by heavy fluid-loading. We investigate here the mechanism of such possible breakage, focusing on the flow-induced pruning that can be observed in plants or aquatic vegetation when parts of the structure break under flow. By computation on an actual tree geometry, a 20-yr-old walnut tree (Juglans Regia L.) and comparison with simple models, we analyze the influence of geometrical and physical parameters on the occurrence of branch breakage and on the successive breaking events occurring in a tree-like structure when the flow velocity is increased. We show that both the branching pattern and the slenderness exponent, defining the branch taper, play a major role in the breakage scenario. We identify a criterion for branch breakage to occur before breakage of the trunk. In that case, we show that the successive breakage of peripheral branches allows the plant to sustain higher flow forces. This mechanism is therefore similar to elastic reconfiguration, and can be seen as a second strategy to overcome critical events, possibly a widespread solution in plants and benthic organisms.

description: Manufacturing is facing ever changing market demands, with faster innovation cycles resulting to growing agility and flexibility requirements. Industry 4.0 has been transforming the manufacturing world towards digital automation and the importance of software has increased drastically. Easy and fast task programming and execution in robot - sensor systems become a prerequisite for agile and flexible automation and in this paper, we propose such a system. Our solution relies on a robot skill library, which provides the user with high level and parametrized operations, i.e., robot skills, for task programming and execution. Programming actions results to a control recipe in a neutral product context and is based on use of product CAD models or alternatively collaborative use of pointers and tracking sensor with real parts. Practical tests are also reported to show the feasibility of our approach.

description: Magnetic helicity fluxes are investigated in a family of gauges in which the contribution from ideal magnetohydrodynamics takes the form of a purely advective flux. Numerical simulations of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence in this advective gauge family exhibit instabilities triggered by the build-up of unphysical irrotational contributions to the magnetic vector potential. As a remedy, the vector potential is evolved in a numerically well behaved gauge, from which the advective vector potential is obtained by a gauge transformation. In the kinematic regime, the magnetic helicity density evolves similarly to a passive scalar when resistivity is small and turbulent mixing is mild, i.e. when the fluid Reynolds number is not too large. In the dynamical regime, resistive contributions to the magnetic helicity flux in the advective gauge are found to be significant owing to the development of small length scales in the irrotational part of the magnetic vector potential.

Multiple EM for Motif Elicitation (MEME)

description: Aptamers are short single-stranded DNA or RNA sequences that can specifically bind to target molecules, making them useful for various applications such as diagnostics, therapeutics, and biosensors. However, designing aptamers with high binding affinity and specificity is a challenging task due to the complexity and diversity of the target molecules. This project proposes a novel approach for generating novel ssDNA aptamer sequences using a variational autoencoder (VAE) model. The VAE is a deep generative model that can learn the underlying distribution of a given dataset and generate new samples from the learned distribution. The aim is for the VAE model to learn the sequence and structural features of the ssDNA aptamers and generate novel ssDNA sequences. The proposed method consists of three main steps: (1) preprocessing and feature engineering of the ssDNA aptamer sequences, (2) training of the VAE model on the preprocessed sequences, and (3) generation of novel ssDNA aptamer sequences by sampling from the learned latent space of the VAE model. The model is trained on a dataset of ssDNA aptamers targeting various molecules like steroids, toxins, proteins, and drugs. Additionally, several software tools for aptamer sequence design and evaluation are reviewed (NUPACK, Vienna, MFOLD, and MEME). These tools provide informative characteristics on ssDNA sequences that facilitate the design of feature vectors. The model’s performance metrics demonstrate that the VAE model could capture the sequence and structural features of the ssDNA aptamers and generate novel sequences. The unsupervised, generative nature, and potential for transfer learning to other aptamer datasets, makes this method promising. The model could serve as a tool for generating novel ssDNA aptamer sequences, which can facilitate the discovery and development of new aptamers for various applications.
Predictive biomarkers of pulmonary exacerbations in cystic fibrosis

description: Pulmonary exacerbations (PEx) are common in cystic fibrosis (CF) and are significant risk factors for lung disease progression. PEx are often diagnosed when a patient presents to clinic with increased respiratory symptoms and decreased lung function. However, changes can sometimes be subtle or the patient can be a poor perceiver of their symptoms, potentially leading to missed or delayed diagnosis of PEx. Blood-based biomarkers reflective of the host immune response and inflammatory activity have the potential to predict PEx in CF. However, due to the poorly defined pathophysiology of PEx, individual candidate biomarkers are unlikely to capture the full spectrum of immune and inflammatory responses in CF. The central hypothesis of this thesis is that by profiling molecules (protein, transcripts, and modifier genes) in blood with unbiased high-throughput ‘omics’ technologies, we can identify blood-based biomarkers to predict PEx risk and PEx-related treatment outcomes in CF. First, I assessed changes in blood proteins in response to IV antibiotic treatment for PEx. Early changes in IGFR2 were associated with symptom improvement by the end of treatment, suggesting its potential to act as a predictive marker of symptomatic treatment response in CF PEx. I further identified blood biomarker candidates (genes and proteins) from CF individuals with paired stable and PEx samples. Based on these candidates, a 16-gene panel and a 9-protein panel were developed predictive of imminent PEx risk (AUCs of 0.88 and 0.83, respectively). I then evaluated blood proteins to predict azithromycin treatment response in CF individuals. Early changes in serum calprotectin were predictive of PEx risk by day 168, indicating that serum calprotectin represents a promising predictive biomarker to identify individuals who derive benefit from azithromycin treatment. Finally, I investigated genetic modifiers of PEx risk in pre-school children with CF and identified the SLC9A3 variant as significantly associated with the risk of PEx. In summary, I showed that blood-based biomarkers could reliably predict response to treatment and PEx risk in CF individuals, which allows for more personalized monitoring and earlier diagnosis and treatment of CF PEx.

description: All-loop asymptotic Bethe equations for a 3-parameter deformation of AdS5/CFT4 have been proposed by Beisert and Roiban. We propose a Drinfeld twist of the AdS5/CFT4 S-matrix, together with c-number diagonal twists of the boundary conditions, from which we derive these Bethe equations. Although the undeformed S-matrix factorizes into a product of two su(2|2) factors, the deformed S-matrix cannot be so factored. Diagonalization of the corresponding transfer matrix requires a generalization of the conventional algebraic Bethe ansatz approach, which we first illustrate for the simpler case of the twisted su(2) principal chiral model. We also demonstrate that the same twisted Bethe equations can alternatively be derived using instead untwisted S-matrices and boundary conditions with operatorial twists.

description: We discuss a possible framework for the construction of a quantum gravity theory where the principles of QFT and general relativity can coexist harmonically. Moreover, in order to fix the correct gauge group of the theory we study the most general one, the affine group and its natural reduction to the orthogonal group. The price we pay for simplifying the geometry is the presence of matter fields associated with the nonmetric degrees of freedom of the original setup. The result is independent of the starting theory.

description: Violence against children is a serious human rights defilement, development and public health issue in many parts of the world including Tanzania and its consequences can be devastating. This study analyzed the factors influencing the effectiveness of NPA-VAWC services in Meru District Council. An exploratory mixed research design was used to sample 150 parents through convenience sampling procedure and purposive sampling technique was used for Key Informants. Data collection methods involved questionnaire survey and interviews and data were analyzed by using binary logistic regression. The study found that factors influencing the implementation of NPA-VAWC are corruption, traditions, norms and values, inadequate awareness of children’ s rights, income poverty and lack of awareness of the NPA-VAWC services. The study concludes that practices of corruption, bad traditions, norms and values in the study area, awareness on children rights, income poverty in the community as well as awareness of stakeholders on the operation of NPA-VAWC are important variables on the effective implementation of NPA-VAWC. It is recommended that Government and stakeholders related to child matters should upscale child protection and advocacy interventions to address child risks and violence by putting emphasis on behavioral change because child protection is a behavioral change process. Also, economic empowerment should be prioritized to communities to build economic capacity that will enable them to tackle all issues related violence.

description: The orthogonal dimer structure in the SrCu2(BO3)2 spin-1/2 magnet provides a realization of the Shastry-Sutherland model. Using a dimer-product variational wave function, we map out the phase diagram of the Shastry-Sutherland model including anisotropies. Based on the variational solution, we construct a bond-wave approach to obtain the excitation spectra as a function of magnetic field. The characteristic features of the experimentally measured neutron and ESR spectra are reproduced, like the anisotropy induced zero field splittings and the persistent gap at higher fields.
