description: Flexible sensors have showed immense potential to be used in the field of healthcare, environment and industrial applications. The full-blown utilisation of these types of sensors is yet to be done to have an impact on the quality of life of people. The presented work shows a great dynamicity in the utilisation of sensors in the application world. Among the different types of techniques that can be used to develop the flexible sensors differing in terms of size, cost and resolution, the use of printing technology had been done to large extent. The work on printed flexible sensors has been continuously growing due to their advantages of low-cost, enhanced electrical and mechanical properties. In this research, novel flexible printed sensors were developed using the laser cutting technique. Four different types of printed flexible sensor prototypes were fabricated, characterised and implemented for different applications. The idea behind the development of each of these sensor prototypes can be attributed to their low-cost, simple operating principle and multi-functional characteristics. The electrical behaviour of the electrodes was based on the capacitive principle due to their interdigitated structures. Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy was used in conjunction with the sensor prototypes to determine the output with respect to the changes in the input. The differences among these prototypes lied in their characteristics due to the different raw materials used to develop them. Multi-Walled Carbon Nanotubes, Graphene, Graphite are some of the conductive materials that were used to develop the electrodes of the sensor prototypes due to their light weight, high electrical conductivity, durability and high aspect ratio. Polydimethylsiloxane, Polyethylene Terephthalate and Polyimide are some of the polymers that were used to develop the substrates due to their low-cost, biocompatibility, low Young's modulus and ability to form flexible bilayer-structured devices. The sensor prototypes were used for different fields like monitoring of limb and other body part movements, respiration and taste sensing for healthcare, salinity and nitrate sensing for environment, and tactile and low-force sensing for industrial applications. The futuristic applications of the developed sensors could involve their real-time applications for chemical and biological sensing of proteins, different gases, temperature, humidity, etc. Due to their small size and biocompatible nature, they can also be considered as implantable sensors to determine the anatomical changes happening inside the body. They can also be used for national purposes, for example., in military and defences, where their minuscular forms would be attached to the wings with adaptive feedback systems to determine their active flutter suppressions.

description: Circular data arise in many areas of application. Recently, there has been interest in looking at circular data collected separately over time and over space. Here, we extend some of this work to the spatio-temporal setting, introducing space-time dependence. We accommodate covariates, implement full kriging and forecasting, and also allow for a nugget which can be time dependent. We work within a Bayesian framework, introducing suitable latent variables to facilitate Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) model fitting. The Bayesian framework enables us to implement full inference, obtaining predictive distributions for kriging and forecasting. We offer comparison between the less flexible but more interpretable wrapped Gaussian process and the more flexible but less interpretable projected Gaussian process. We do this illustratively using both simulated data and data from computer model output for wave directions in the Adriatic Sea off the coast of Italy.

description: By single-crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis, five complexes, catena-[(µ-2,2-bis(4-carboxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane)-(2-(pyidin-2-yl)-1,3-benzothiazole)-aqua-zinc(II)] (1), catena-[(µ-2,2-bis(4-carboxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane)-(2-(pyidin-2-yl)1,3-benzothiazole)-aqua-cadmium(II)] (2), catena-[hepta(µ-2,2-bis(4carboxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane)-diaqua-bis(2-(pyidin-2-yl)-1,3-benzothiazole)-tri-manganes(II)] (3), catena-[(µ-benzene-1,2,4,5-tetracarboxylato)-(2-(pyidin-2-yl)-1,3benzothiazole)copper(II)] (4) and catena-[(µ-3-nitrobenzene-1,2-dicarboxylato)-(2-(pyidin-2-yl)1,3-benzothiazole)-aqua-zinc(II)] (5), were characterized in this research. In these five complexes, H2hfipbb = 2,2-bis(4-carboxyphenyl)hexafluoropropane, H4btec = 1,2,4,5-benzenetetracarboxylic acid, H2NPTA = 3-nitrophthalic acid and bpt = 2-(pyridin-2-yl)benzo[d]thiazole). Complexes 1 and 2 occur in the monoclinic system with space group C2/c, 4 and 5 occur in the monoclinic system with space group P21/c, and 3 occurs in the triclinic system with space group P-1. The interaction between CT-DNA (calf thymus DNA) and those complexes was examined using UV spectroscopic analysis, fluorescent spectroscopic analysis, circular dichroism spectroscopy (CD) and viscosity analysis. This research reveals that those complexes have strong ability to interact with DNA, and they all bind to DNA in an intercalation mode, thus affecting the structure of DNA. This binding mode can arise from the interaction between the benzothiazole metal complexes and DNA. Hence, we hope to provide some scientific research bases for studying benzothiazole complexes and designing new thiazole anticancer drugs.
title: The social impact of house improvement: a case study of Dennistoun
Creators: name: Tytler, Colin G.
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 1982

description: A major factor in the shift in favour of house rehabilitation and away from comprehensive clearance and redevelopment has been the belief that rehabilitation is much less socially disruptive. This assumption has been little tested. By examining an area of Glasgow subject to considerable house improvement, this dissertation seeks to identify the social and community impacts of rehabilitation. Does rehabilitation benefit existing residents? Do households leave the area as a result of rehabilitation and, if so, where do they go and how do they rate their post-move housing conditions? Who replaces them? These are some of the questions the dissertation addresses. CHAPTER 1 examines the thinking behind the move from clearance to improvement while CHAPTER 2 reviews both American and British literature on the social aspects of rehabilitation. CHAPTER 3 deals with the legislative side of house improvement and the changing emphases of successive policies. The impact of legislative changes on the quantity and impact of improvement work is also considered. CHAPTER 4 consists of a brief description of the study area itself and an outline of the development of improvement activity within it while CHAPTER 5 sets out working hypotheses and develops a possible methodology for the study of the social impact of rehabilitation. CHAPTER 6 is an analysis of results drawing together the various data sets used into a generalised overview. Supporting the factual data, CHAPTER 7 summarises discussions with various public and private agencies and local community groups about the operation and results of improvement policy. CHAPTER 8 extends the discussion beyond the confines of the study area by developing a more generalised model of neighbourhood change and household movement as affected by rehabilitation. On the basis of a set of indicators of neighbourhood change, other areas of the city are identified where rehabilitation pressures are likely to be greatest. A number of policy recommendations emerge from a closer examination of the model.
The Egyptian zar ceremony: silver amulets from a private collection, a catalogue and interpretation

description: The Zar has played an important role in Egyptian folk religion. The thesis examines the origins and format of this cult and its ceremony, before concentrating on the silver amulets that feature both in the Zar ceremony and a Zar cult devotee's life. A detailed and annotated catalogue of such amulets from a private collection forms the bulk of the thesis. The amulets, in their various forms, are a cultural legacy. Their aesthetic characteristics and spiritual portrayal bear solid testimony to the story of the cult, from its zenith at the opening of the twentieth century, through its transformation, change of role and continued adherence by its devotees at the century's close. The growing scarcity of these antique amulets, and the demise of many of their owners, has prompted this exploration and documentation, before all personal sources of information are lost. The Zar appears to have a positive and placatory effect on the psyche, this being acquired by its devotees through dance movement and a personal belief in its holistic nature. The ceremony provides an arena for social interaction and emotional stability; these positive effects have assisted the Zar cults' continuation in Egypt.

description: Relational program verification is a variant of program verification where one can reason about two programs and as a special case about two executions of a single program on different inputs. Relational program verification can be used for reasoning about a broad range of properties, including equivalence and refinement, and specialized notions such as continuity, information flow security or relative cost. In a higher-order setting, relational program verification can be achieved using relational refinement type systems, a form of refinement types where assertions have a relational interpretation. Relational refinement type systems excel at relating structurally equivalent terms but provide limited support for relating terms with very different structures. We present a logic, called Relational Higher Order Logic (RHOL), for proving relational properties of a simply typed $λ$-calculus with inductive types and recursive definitions. RHOL retains the type-directed flavour of relational refinement type systems but achieves greater expressivity through rules which simultaneously reason about the two terms as well as rules which only contemplate one of the two terms. We show that RHOL has strong foundations, by proving an equivalence with higher-order logic (HOL), and leverage this equivalence to derive key meta-theoretical properties: subject reduction, admissibility of a transitivity rule and set-theoretical soundness. Moreover, we define sound embeddings for several existing relational type systems such as relational refinement types and type systems for dependency analysis and relative cost, and we verify examples that were out of reach of prior work.

description: We consider modeling of angular or directional data viewed as a linear variable wrapped onto a unit circle. In particular, we focus on the spatio-temporal context, motivated by a collection of wave directions obtained as computer model output developed dynamically over a collection of spatial locations. We propose a novel wrapped skew Gaussian process which enriches the class of wrapped Gaussian process. The wrapped skew Gaussian process enables more flexible marginal distributions than the symmetric ones arising under the wrapped Gaussian process and it allows straightforward interpretation of parameters. We clarify that replication through time enables criticism of the wrapped process in favor of the wrapped skew process. We formulate a hierarchical model incorporating this process and show how to introduce appropriate latent variables in order to enable efficient fitting to dynamic spatial directional data. We also show how to implement kriging and forecasting under this model. We provide a simulation example as a proof of concept as well as a real data example. Both examples reveal consequential improvement in predictive performance for the wrapped skew Gaussian specification compared with the earlier wrapped Gaussian version.

description: AERONET (AErosol RObotic NETwork), which is a network of ground-based sun photometers, produces a data product called the aerosol spectral deconvolution algorithm (SDA) that utilizes spectral total aerosol optical depth (AOD) data to infer the component fine- and coarse-mode optical depths at 500 nm. Based on its assumptions, SDA identifies cloud optical depth as the coarse-mode AOD component and therefore effectively computes the fine-mode AOD also in mixed cloud–aerosol observations. Therefore, it can be argued that the more representative AOD for fine-mode fraction should be based on all direct sun measurements and not only on those cloud screened for clear-sky conditions, i.e., on those from level 1 (L1) instead of level 2 (L2) in AERONET. The objective of our study was to assess, including all the available AERONET sites, how the fine-mode AOD is enhanced in cloudy conditions, contrasting SDA L1 and L2 in our analysis. Assuming that the cloud screening correctly separates the cloudy and clear-sky conditions, then the increases in fine-mode AOD can be due to various cloud-related processes, mainly by the strong hygroscopic growth of particles in the vicinity of clouds and in-cloud processing leading to growth of accumulation mode particles. We estimated these cloud-related enhancements in fine-mode AOD seasonally and found, for instance, that in June–August season the average over all the AERONET sites was 0.011, when total fine-mode AOD from L2 data was 0.154; therefore, the relative enhancement was 7 %. The enhancements were largest, both absolutely and relatively, in East Asia; for example, in June–August season the absolute and relative differences in fine-mode AOD, between L1 and L2 measurements, were 0.022 and 10 %, respectively. Corresponding values in North America and Europe were about 0.01 and 6–7 %. In some highly polluted areas, the enhancement is greater than these regional averages, e.g., in Beijing region and in June–July–August (JJA) season the corresponding absolute values were about 0.1. It is difficult to separate the fine-mode AOD enhancements due to in-cloud processing and hygroscopic growth, but we attempted to get some understanding by conducting a similar analysis for SDA-based fine-mode Ångström exponent (AE) patterns. Moreover, we exploited a cloud parcel model, in order to understand in detail the relative role of different processes. We found that in marine conditions, were aerosol concentration are low and cloud scavenging is efficient, the AE changes in opposite direction than in the more polluted conditions, were hygroscopic growth of particles leads to a negative AE change.
Improved larval diets for mass rearing of Queensland fruit fly (Bactrocera tryoni)

description: "The Queensland fruit fly or ‘Q-fly’, Bactrocera tryoni (Diptera: Tephritidae), is Australia’s most economically important insect pest of fruit crops. The Sterile Insect Technique (SIT), which involves the mass rearing and release of millions of sterile flies to curtail reproduction of wild populations, is used as an environmentally benign approach to control Q-fly. High quality larval diets are essential for economical mass rearing and effective SIT. As a first step to development of improved diets, liquid larval diet formulations that have received substantial interest over the past decade (‘Chang 2006’ and ‘Chang 2009’) were compared with a conventional carrot-based solid diet. Results suggested that liquid diets are a promising alternative to carrot diet, but that their performance can be constrained by heterogeneity and high viscosity that can result in high larval mortality. To deal with these issues, the liquid diet formulations were mixed with agar (0, 0.25, 0.5, 1.0 and 1.5%) to produce gel diets. Significant diet by agar group interactions were found for most quality parameters, indicating that development of agar-based diets is a far more complex task that adding a specified proportion of agar to a suitable liquid diet formulation; the ideal proportion of agar to use depends on the diet formulation. Overall, around 1% agar provided the best balance of development rate, productivity and quality parameters. Diet experiments used eggs transported in water, and supplementary experiments confirm that the typical transit time of ca. 2 hours does not reduce hatching rate. These projects set the stage for more detailed investigation of gel diets as the most promising option for mass-rearing of Q-fly for SIT." -- Abstract.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. 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.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: The integration of approaches that allow the incorporation of stochasticity of gene histories with phylogenetic methods resulted in new approaches for the old issue of species delimitation. Nevertheless, coalescent methods seem problematic for taxa with large effective population size and shallow temporal diversification (like marine fishes). Here, we investigate the performance of single-locus (cytochrome oxidase 1, commonly used in DNA barcoding initiatives) methods for molecular species delimitation in snappers of Lutjaninae from the Western Atlantic and Pacific Eastern. Our results show incongruences among methods. ABGD, PTP and mPTP trend towards a lower number of estimated species. Phylogenetic-coalescent methods with single threshold were majority congruent for a same number of lineages. On the other hand, algorithms with multiple thresholds tend to estimate a higher number of potential species. We do not endorse the use of single-locus for species delimitation, but we do reinforce that single-locus data is sufficient to flag many problems.

description: The Hori-Tong and Hori dualities are infrared dualities between two-dimensional gauge theories with $\mathcal{N}{=}(2,2)$ supersymmetry, which are reminiscent of four-dimensional Seiberg dualities. We provide additional evidence for those dualities with $U(N_c)$, $USp(2N_c)$, $SO(N)$ and $O(N)$ gauge groups, by matching correlation functions of Coulomb branch operators on a Riemann surface $Σ_g$, in the presence of the topological $A$-twist. The $O(N)$ theories studied, denoted by $O_+ (N)$ and $O_- (N)$, can be understood as $\mathbb{Z}_2$ orbifolds of an $SO(N)$ theory. The correlators of these theories on $Σ_g$ with $g > 0$ are obtained by computing correlators with $\mathbb{Z}_2$-twisted boundary conditions and summing them up with weights determined by the orbifold projection.

description: Diets low in complex polysaccharides have been shown to perturb the gut microbiota-host relationship, and thus impact host health. As evidence supporting this hypothesis continues to grow, therapeutic modulation of the gut microbiota through supplementation of complex polysaccharides for preventing or treating diseases has gained significant scientific and commercial interest. Several supplements in the form of dietary fibre or prebiotics are marketed commercially for this purpose. However, only limited work has been conducted to scientifically evaluate the ability of these products to alter the gut microbiota and improve host health. In this work, we investigated the impact of commercially available dietary fibre and cereal products on the gut microbiota and metabolite production. We used an in vitro adult digestive and gut microbiota model system and a high fat diet fed mouse model to examine the effect of dietary fibre supplementation on the gut microbiota, metabolites and host physiology. Using an in vitro infant digestive and gut microbiota model system we investigated the impact of cereal products on the infant gut microbiota and metabolites. Our results demonstrated significant shifts in the overall gut microbiota community structure upon addition of each product. The abundance of various bacterial taxa associated with fibre digestion and anti-inflammatory capabilities increased with fibre additions. However, the specific nature of the alterations was product-dependent. Fibre supplementation in mice ameliorated high fat diet-induced changes in the abundance of specific gut bacteria, whilst no significant changes in the glucose clearance or body weight were observed. Further, we demonstrated significant differences in the gut microbiota response to a high fat diet and fibre supplementation upon weekly overnight fasting in mice. The product-dependent impact on the gut microbiota and metabolites highlights the need for stringent scientific evaluation of commercial fibre products for their effect on the gut microbiota and host physiology.

description: The anti-Stokes scattering and Stokes scattering in stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS) cascade have been researched by the Vlasov-Maxwell simulation. In the high-intensity laser-plasmas interaction, the stimulated anti-Stokes Brillouin scattering (SABS) will occur after the second stage SBS rescattering. The mechanism of SABS has been put forward to explain this phenomenon. And the SABS will compete with the SBS rescattering to determine the total SBS reflectivity. Thus, the SBS rescattering including the SABS is an important saturation mechanism of SBS, and should be taken into account in the high-intensity laser-plasmas interaction.

description: The paper describes a time- and angle-resolved photoemission apparatus consisting of a hemispherical analyzer and a pulsed laser source. We demonstrate 1.48-eV pump and 5.90-eV probe measurements at the >10.5-meV and >240-fs resolutions by use of fairly monochromatic 170-fs pulses delivered from a regeneratively amplified Ti:sapphire laser system operating typically at 250 kHz. The apparatus is capable to resolve the optically filled superconducting peak in the unoccupied states of a cuprate superconductor, Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8+d. A dataset recorded on Bi(111) surface is also presented. Technical descriptions include the followings: A simple procedure to fine-tune the spatio-temporal overlap of the pump-and-probe beams and their diameters; achieving a long-term stability of the system that enables a normalization-free dataset acquisition; changing the repetition rate by utilizing acoustic optical modulator and frequency-division circuit.

description: The diffusion of a Janus rod-shaped nanoparticle in a dense Lennard-Jones fluid is studied using molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The Janus particle is modeled as a rigid cylinder whose atoms on each half-side have different interaction energies with fluid molecules, thus comprising wetting and nonwetting surfaces. We found that both rotational and translational diffusion coefficients are larger for Janus particles with higher wettability contrast, and these values are bound between the two limiting cases of uniformly wetting and nonwetting particles. It was also shown that values of the diffusion coefficients for displacements parallel and perpendicular to the major axis of a uniformly wetting particle agree well with analytical predictions despite a finite slip at the particle surface present in MD simulations. It was further demonstrated that diffusion of Janus particles is markedly different from that of uniform particles; namely, Janus particles preferentially rotate and orient their nonwetting sides along the displacement vector to reduce drag. This correlation between translation and rotation is consistent with the previous results on diffusive dynamics of a spherical Janus particle with two hemispheres of different wettability.

Podcasting personas in the creative knowledge industries

description: Using digitally networked media to garner attention and build an online reputation has become a popular practice in the information and technology industries (Marwick, 2013). This phenomenon is often subsumed under the rhetoric of individual empowerment that celebrates ideals such as self-expression and entrepreneurialism (Gandini, 2016), and the promising potentials of participation. This thesis investigates how a selection of Australian creative knowledge workers use podcasting to construct networked identities that serve to increase their professional opportunities and build their reputations, yet may simultaneously contribute to experiences of precariousness through the blurring of public and private lives. To understand this tension, I draw on a range of discourses including participatory media studies, affect theory and Persona Studies. The research places early theories of media participation in dialogue with Persona Studies, and proposes that the study of persona may offer a more nuanced understanding of participatory media use in the contemporary moment.

description: The coastal waters are important transition zones for terrestrial nutrient and pollutant runoff and the open Sea. During the last decades, eutrophication has negatively influenced macrophyte communities of the coastal ecosystems, making restoration activities inevitable. This study analysed recent macrophyte vegetation and the reproductive potential through the sediment diaspore reservoir along the German Baltic Sea coastline. Salinity was identified to be the responsible factor for shifts in the macrophyte community with most commonly found species like Stuckenia pectinata or Myriophyllum spicatum. In contrast, the oospores of small charophytes (e.g. Tolypella nidifica) clearly dominated the sediment diaspore bank. The germination rates differed in the recent vegetation composition and the diaspore bank composition with Zannichellia palustris as the dominant species. However, several species not visually detected at the respective sites were represented in the diaspore bank and germinated at a low rate (e.g. Chara contraria and Lamprothamnium papulosum). The maximal germination frequency corresponded to the sediment layer in which diaspore density was the highest (5–15 cm). In conclusion, the germinable diaspores were observed at all sites. Considering the differences between the diaspore composition, recent vegetation and germination success, we have illustrated the potential of the diaspore banks for the restoration of the macrophyte communities after at least mid-term periods of disturbance.

description: Ton 34 recently transitioned from non-absorbing quasar into a BALQSO.Here, we report new HST-STIS observations of this quasar. Along with CIV absorption, we also detect absorption by NV+Ly alpha and possibly OVI+Ly beta. We follow the evolution of the CIV BAL, and find that, for the slower outflowing material, the absorption trough varies little (if at all) on a rest-frame timescale of 2 yr. However, we detect a strong deepening of the absorption in the gas moving at larger velocities (-20,000 - -23,000 km s-1). The data is consistent with a multistreaming flow crossing our line of sight to the source. The transverse velocity of the flow should be few thousand km s-1, similar to the rotation velocity of the BLR gas (2,600 km s-1). By simply assuming Keplerian motion, these two components must have similar locations, pointing to a common outflow forming the BLR and the BAL. We speculate that BALs, mini-BALs, and NALs, are part of a common, ubiquitous, accretion-disk outflow in AGN, but become observable depending on the viewing angle towards the flow. The absorption troughs suggest a wind covering only 20% of the emitting source, implying a maximum size of 10^-3 pc for the clouds forming the BAL/BLR medium. This is consistent with constraints of the BLR clouds from X-ray occultations. Finally, we suggest that the low excitation broad emission lines detected in the spectra of this source lie beyond the wind, and this gas is probably excited by the shock of the BAL wind with the surrounding medium.

Australian wild oryza species: growth, canopy structure and atmospheric CO2 effects

description: The canopy structure of O. sativa and the Australian wild Oryza relatives, O. australiensis and O. meridionalis, were compared developmentally and with digital models. Species differences were found in average leaf angle, self-shading, leaf dispersion and leaf area index (LAI). There was no advantage of the near vertical leaf angles that are associated with high leaf area index in O. sativa and therefore, O. sativa did not have superior light interception efficiency (LIE). There was also no clear difference between the species in light-saturated photosynthetic rates; all species had higher rates in the vegetative than the reproductive phase of growth. Elevated CO2 enhanced photosynthesis, accelerated development of total leaf area, shoot and root weights, tiller number and plant height during vegetative development but at the reproductive stage of development, there were no longer any significant species differences. Oryza meridionalis produced the greatest biomass, with substantial variation between O. meridionalis accessions collected from an arc across tropical Australia. Oryza sativa produced more grain and had much higher harvest indices than O. meridionalis or O. australiensis. It was concluded that the wild Oryza relatives were as efficient as O. sativa in photosynthetic carbon fixation. However, radical re-design of O. sativa canopies to resemble the wild Oryza archetypes might confer advantages in heat dispersal or efficient water use.

description: We report on subarcsecond observations of complex organic molecules (COMs) in the high-mass protostar IRAS20126+4104 with the Plateau de Bure Interferometer in its most extended configurations. In addition to the simple molecules SO, HNCO and H2-13CO, we detect emission from CH3CN, CH3OH, HCOOH, HCOOCH3, CH3OCH3, CH3CH2CN, CH3COCH3, NH2CN, and (CH2OH)2. SO and HNCO present a X-shaped morphology consistent with tracing the outflow cavity walls. Most of the COMs have their peak emission at the putative position of the protostar, but also show an extension towards the south(east), coinciding with an H2 knot from the jet at about 800-1000 au from the protostar. This is especially clear in the case of H2-13CO and CH3OCH3. We fitted the spectra at representative positions for the disc and the outflow, and found that the abundances of most COMs are comparable at both positions, suggesting that COMs are enhanced in shocks as a result of the passage of the outflow. By coupling a parametric shock model to a large gas-grain chemical network including COMs, we find that the observed COMs should survive in the gas phase for about 2000 yr, comparable to the shock lifetime estimated from the water masers at the outflow position. Overall, our data indicate that COMs in IRAS20126+4104 may arise not only from the disc, but also from dense and hot regions associated with the outflow.
