description: Elasticity property (i.e. no-particle creation) is used in the tree level scattering of scalar particles in 1+1 dimensions to construct the affine Toda field theory(ATFT) associated with root systems of groups $a_2^{(2)}$ and $c_2^{(1)}$. A general prescription is given for constructing ATFT (associated with rank two root systems) with two self conjugate scalar fields. It is conjectured that the same method could be used to obtain the other ATFT associated with higher rank root systems.

Subjects: Crop Production/Industries

description: Kiwifruit and apples are the main horticultural export earners for New Zealand. The main markets for New Zealand kiwifruit are the continental Europe, Germany in particular, and Japan. In this paper, overseas demand equations for each of these markets are developed in the price dependent form are linked to the New Zealand fob and grower returns. Total imports of kiwifruit into these markets, domestic kiwifruit production, per capita consumer expenditure and price of competing fruit types are utilized to develop a recursive price determinant model. Total import price of kiwifruit in these markets are estimated first, which in turn determines the price received by New Zealand kiwifruit, partly influenced by the volume of kiwifruit imported from New Zealand. These prices are then linked to the New Zealand returns at the fob level for each of these markets which in turn determines the weighted average New Zealand returns and thus the prices received by kiwifruit growers. This export market model development has allowed New Zealand prices to be endogenised in a "Regional Kiwifruit Acreage and Yield Response Model" already operational within MAF Policy for three years.

Constructing a transport hGIS: Does infrastructure follow infrastructure?
Creators: name: Fuhrer, Raphaël
Publisher: name: ETH Zurich
Year: 2017

description: The purpose of this contribution is to present the advancement in the construction of a historical geographic information system (hGIS) on Western Europe’s transport system from 1500 to 2000, as introduced at the T2M conference last year. Emphasise is laid on two points: First, the need for special techniques in the processing of scanned paper transport maps drawn in black-and-white, which are the bulk of historical maps. Second, despite the many real and utopian revolutions in transport history, it is claimed that the spatial position of transport infrastructure over centuries has remained very constant. Using the hGIS this claim can be addressed.
Higher Inductive Types and Internal Parametricity for Cubical Type Theory

description: Recent innovation in the design of type theories—foundational systems of mathematics with a focus on constructivity—has produced the concept of interval variable, which can be used to capture relations between objects that carry computational content. We examine two such relationships in type theory: equality, in particularquotients, and arbitrary relations as applied in parametricity interpretations. Cubical type theory, a system using an interval-based formulation of equality, enables a permissive kind of content-carrying equality that includes in particularisomorphism. Cubical type theory provides a constructive interpretation of homotopy type theory and the Univalent Foundations, formalisms that introduced the idea of isomorphism as equality but which lack intrinsic computational meaning. The cubical approach to equality also rectifies long-standing deficiencies in the behavior ofquotients in type theory. We realize a system of generalized quotients for cubical type theory originally conceived in homotopy type theory, called higher inductive types, that merges the concepts of inductive type and quotient. Such a mutual generalization is particularly essential in the contentful equality setting, but also has significant applications to ordinary mathematics. Parametricity is, among other things, a proof technique for deriving propertiesof constructions performed in type theories, based on the idea that constructions preserve all relations between objects. Traditionally a meta-theoretical tool, recentwork has shown that parametricity properties can be integrated into a type theory itself using an interval-based system. We develop internal parametricity on top ofcubical type theory, examining the similarities and distinctions between the two applications of intervals, finding that a background of cubical equality improves thebehavior of internal parametricity, and applying internal parametricity as a tool to solve difficult problems in cubical type theory. We introduce a system of cohesionmodalities to express the interaction between parametric and non-parametric type theory, enabling the use of parametricity results in a non-parametric setting.

description: Das Projekt "Thomas Mann Nachlassbibliothek" verfolgt das Ziel, die Lesespuren in Thomas Manns Privatbibliothek digital zu erfassen und zugänglich zu machen. In einem zu diesem Zweck entwickelten XML-Editor findet die Erfassung sämtlicher in der Bibliothek vorhandenen Notizen, An-, Unterstreichungen und Markierungen statt. Nach Projektende werden die so erschlossenen Lesespuren über eine Weboberfläche zur Anzeige und Auswertung zugänglich gemacht. Das vom Schweizerischen Nationalfonds geförderte Projekt ist eine Kooperation zwischen dem Thomas-Mann-Archiv an der ETH-Bibliothek Zürich, den IT-Services der ETH-Bibliothek und der Professur für Literatur- und Kulturwissenschaft der ETH Zürich. Zu den Beständen des Thomas-Mann-Archivs zählt die gesamte Privatbibliothek, die Thomas Mann bei seinem Tod 1955 hinterlassen hat. Es ist bekannt, dass der Autor "mit dem Bleistift las", und entsprechend sind in etwa der Hälfte der aus Manns Besitz stammenden rund 4'300 Bücher Lesespuren enthalten. Als Ausdruck der Werkproduktion haben diese Spuren stets Forschungsinteressen geweckt - der Umstand, dass nicht genau bekannt war, welche Bücher Lesespuren enthalten, und der ausschliesslich physische Zugang zu den Büchern haben bis heute jedoch eine vertiefte Auseinandersetzung mit der Gesamtheit der vorhandenen Lesespuren verunmöglicht. Die aus dem Projekt resultierende Nutzeroberfläche wird hier Abhilfe schaffen und völlig neue Recherchemöglichkeiten zulassen. Für die Bibliotheks- und Forschungs-Community, die sich mit vergleichbaren Fragen beschäftigt, ist der Beitrag besonders interessant, weil er auf das konkrete Projektvorgehen, die gewählte und eingeführte Systemlösung und im Projekt angetroffene Herausforderungen fokussiert. In einer übergeordneten Sicht stellt das Projekt einen Beitrag zur laufenden Diskussion dar, wie mit annotierten (Druck)Werken jeglicher Art und Herkunft digital umgegangen werden kann.

description: We extract 18 candidate short gamma-ray bursts (SGRBs) with precursors from 660 SGRBs observed by {\em Fermi} and {\em Swift} satellites, and carry out a comprehensive analysis on their temporal and spectral features. We obtain the following results: (1) For a large fraction of candidates, the main burst durations are longer than their precursor durations, comparable to their quiescent times from the end of precursors to the beginning of their main bursts. (2) The average flux of precursors tends to increase as their main bursts brighten. (3) As seen from the distributions of hardness ratio and spectral fitting, the precursors are slightly spectrally softer with respect to the main bursts. Moreover, a significant portion of precursors and all main bursts favor a non-thermal spectrum. (4) The precursors might be a probe of the progenitor properties of SGRBs such as the magnetic field strength and the crustal equation of state if they arise from some processes before mergers of binary compact objects rather than post-merger processes.

description: We study the anisotropic quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnet for spin-1/2 that interpolates smoothly between the one-dimensional (1D) and the two-dimensional (2D) limits. Using the spin Hartree-Fock approach we construct a quantitative theory of heat capacity in the quasi-1D regime with a finite coupling between spin chains. This theory reproduces closely the exact result of Bethe Ansatz in the 1D limit and does not produces any spurious phase transitions for any anisotropy in the quasi-1D regime at finite temperatures in agreement with the Mermin-Wagner theorem. We study the static spin-spin correlation function in order to analyse the interplay of lattice geometry and anisotropy in these systems. We compare the square and triangular lattice. For the latter we find that there is a quantum transition point at an intermediate anisotropy of $\sim0.6$. This quantum phase transition establishes that the quasi-1D regime extends upto a particular point in this geometry. For the square lattice the change from the 1D to 2D occurs smoothly as a function of anisotropy, i.e. it is of the crossover type. Comparing the newly developed theory to the available experimental data on the heat capacity of $\rm{Cs}_2\rm{CuBr}_4$ and $\rm{Cs}_2\rm{CuCl}_4$ we extract the microscopic constants of the exchange interaction that previously could only be measured using inelastic neutron scattering in high magnetic fields.

description: Multi-shot echo planar imaging (msEPI) is a promising approach to achieve high in-plane resolution with high sampling efficiency and low T2* blurring. However, due to the geometric distortion, shot-to-shot phase variations and potential subject motion, msEPI continues to be a challenge in MRI. In this work, we introduce acquisition and reconstruction strategies for robust, high-quality msEPI without phase navigators. We propose Blip Up-Down Acquisition (BUDA) using interleaved blip-up and -down phase encoding, and incorporate B0 forward-modeling into Hankel structured low-rank model to enable distortion- and navigator-free msEPI. We improve the acquisition efficiency and reconstruction quality by incorporating simultaneous multi-slice acquisition and virtual-coil reconstruction into the BUDA technique. We further combine BUDA with the novel RF-encoded gSlider acquisition, dubbed BUDA-gSlider, to achieve rapid high isotropic-resolution MRI. Deploying BUDA-gSlider with model-based reconstruction allows for distortion-free whole-brain 1mm isotropic T2 mapping in about 1 minute. It also provides whole-brain 1mm isotropic diffusion imaging with high geometric fidelity and SNR efficiency. We finally incorporate sinusoidal wave gradients during the EPI readout to better use coil sensitivity encoding with controlled aliasing.

Delta Oscillations: Prevalence, Propagation, and Relation to Motor Dysfunction in Mouse Models of Parkinson’s Disease
Creators: name: Whalen, Timothy
Publisher: name: Carnegie Mellon University
Year: 2021
Subjects: Neuroscience

description: Pathological neural oscillations, particularly in the beta and delta bands, are hallmarks of dysfunction in the basal ganglia (BG) of patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD). While Parkinsonian beta oscillations have received more attention than delta oscillations in the scientific literature, it remains unclear how these oscillations emerge, propagate through the brain, and relate to motor symptoms in PD. Animal models of PD have been a valuable tool for studying these oscillations, but the oscillatory landscape of awake, behaving mice, a common animal model for the study of PD, has not been investigated.Here, we record from the substantia nigra pars reticulata (SNr), the primary output nucleus of the mouse BG, and other BG nuclei in the dopamine depleted (DD) mouse model of PD. Using a novel signal processing method to distinguish oscillations from neural noise, we establish that delta, but not beta, oscillations are present in single neural units throughout the BG in dopamine depletion, and that these oscillations arise due to insufficient activation of D2 receptors. We also establish that the prevalence of delta oscillations in SNr neurons correlates with the overall level of motor dysfunction and dopamine loss and dynamically correlates with bouts of akinesia. These oscillations in SNr neurons lead DD-induced delta oscillations in motor cortex (M1), suggesting a subcortical basis for their generation, and their relationship to M1’s oscillations define a novel dichotomy of SNr into active-predicting (AP) and inactive-predicting (IP) subpopulations of neurons.Next, we take a computational modeling approach to further investigate how these oscillations propagate in the brain and how the AP and IP subpopulations of SNr neurons arise. Using a realistic conductance-based model of SNr neurons, we test if delta oscillations in GPe neurons which project to our model SNr neurons are sufficient to replicate the SNr oscillations we observe in vivo. We demonstrate that a simple connection architecture, in which GPe and other SNr neurons compete for a limited number of synapses on each SNr neuron, is sufficient to generate AP and IP populations in SNr whose firing properties match experimental data. This model demonstrates how delta oscillations can effectively propagate through the basal ganglia despite neural noise.Finally, we review how these results fit within and inform our understanding of neural oscillations and Parkinsonian motor dysfunction. We discuss and attempt to reconcile the disparities between observations in different animal models and human PD and explore potential mechanisms by which delta oscillations could cause Parkinsonian dysfunction. We close with a discussion of the future directions we envision for these topics and how they may inform new potential targets and treatments for PD.

description: We compare the convergence of several flat-histogram methods applied to the 2D Ising model, including the recently introduced stochastic approximation with a dynamic update factor (SAD) method. We compare this method with the Wang-Landau (WL) method, the $1/t$ variant of the WL method, and standard stochastic approximation Monte Carlo (SAMC). In addition, we consider a procedure WL followed by a "production run" with fixed weights that refines the estimation of the entropy. To our knowledge, this work is the first to test this approach against other methods. We find that WL followed by a production run \emph{does} converge to the true density of states, in contrast to pure WL. Three of the methods converge robustly: SAD, $1/t$-WL, and WL followed by a production run. Of these, SAD does not require \emph{a priori} knowledge of the energy range. This work also shows that WL followed by a production run performs superior to other forms of WL while ensuring both ergodicity and detailed balance.

description: From first principles calculations we determine the Coulomb interaction between two holes on oligo-acene and -thiophene molecules in a crystal, as a function of the oligomer length. The relaxation of the molecular geometry in the presence of holes is found to be small. In contrast, the electronic polarization of the molecules that surround the charged oligomer, reduces the bare Coulomb repulsion between the holes by approximately a factor of two. In all cases the effective hole-hole repulsion is much larger than the calculated valence bandwidth, which implies that at high doping levels the properties of these organic semiconductors are determined by electron-electron correlations.

Monoperiodic $δ$ Scuti star UY Cam: an analogue of SX Phe and RR Lyr-type variables

description: We present the results of a four-year photometric study of the high-amplitude $δ$ Scuti star (HADS) UY Camelopardalis. Analyses on the available data from 1985 to 2003 show that UY Cam is monoperiodic. Fourier solutions for individual data sets do not reveal period changes in the star. Although forced parabolic fits to the $O-C$ residuals indicate measurable period change, the distribution of the data points in $O-C$ diagram and the deviations between fits and observations suggest the period change is still not established. We evidence the presence of cycle-to-cycle and longer time-scale amplitude variations. The pulsation amplitude seemed to change from 1985 to 2000s, but it kept constant in 2000--2003. UY Cam locates in the upper portion of the instability region of $δ$ Sct variables. Photometric properties and estimated physical parameters reveal that UY Cam is an interesting object concerning its poorer metallicity, longer period, higher luminosity, lower surface gravity and larger radius among the HADS. UY Cam could be a younger (age=0.7$\pm$0.1 Gyr) Population I HADS with poor metal abundances (Z=0.004) evolving on its post main sequence shell hydrogen-burning evolutionary phase. UY Cam intervenes among the Pop. I/II HADS and RRc Lyr variables. These characteristics suggest the star to be an analogue of HADS, SX Phe and RRc Lyr-type variables.

description: The Centaurs are the small solar system bodies intermediate between the active inner solar system Jupiter Family Comets and their inactive progenitors in the trans-Neptunian region. Among the fraction of Centaurs which show comet-like activity, 174P/Echeclus is best known for its massive 2005 outburst in which a large apparently active fragment was ejected above the escape velocity from the primary nucleus. We present visible imaging and near-infrared spectroscopy of Echeclus during the first week after its December 2017 outburst taken at the Faulkes North & South Telescopes and the NASA IRTF, the largest outburst since 2005. The coma was seen to be highly asymmetric. A secondary peak was seen in the near-infrared 2D spectra, which is strongly hinted at in the visible images, moving hyperbolically with respect to the nucleus. The retrieved reflectance spectrum of Echelcus is consistent with the unobscured nucleus but becomes bluer when a wider extraction aperture is used. We find that Echeclus's coma is best explained as dominated by large blue dust grains, which agrees with previous work. We also conducted a high-resolution orbital integration of Echeclus's recent evolution and found no large orbital changes that could drive its modern evolution. We interpret the second peak in the visible and near-infrared datasets as a large cloud of larger-than-dust debris ejected at the time of outburst. If Echeclus is typical of the Centaurs, there may be several debris ejection or fragmentation events per year on other Centaurs that are going unnoticed.

Mürgitused vasksulfaadiga on enamasti seotud tahtliku enesekahjustusega, mis on eriti levinud Lõuna-Aasia riikides. Artiklis on kirjeldatud kurttummal patsiendil raske vasksulfaadimürgistuse juhtu, mida esialgu käsitleti ekslikult rotimürgi mürgistusena. Esitatud on ka kirjanduse ülevaade vasksulfaadimürgistuse kohta üldisemalt.

description: Top-down models assume that the still unexplained Ultra High Energy Cosmic Rays (UHECR's) are the decay products of superheavy particles. Such particles may have been produced by one of the post-inflationary reheating mechanisms and may account for a fraction of the cold dark matter. In this paper, we assess the phenomenological applicability of the simplest instant preheating framework not to describe a reheating process, but as a mechanism to generate relic supermassive particles as possible sources of UHECR's. We use cosmic ray flux and cold dark matter observational data to constrain the parameters of the model.

description: Ehlersi-Danlosi sündroom (EDS) on kliiniliselt ja geneetiliselt heterogeenne rühm sidekoehaigusi, millel on praegu teada 14 alatüüpi. EDSi esinemissagedus on 1 : 5000 kuni 1 : 20 000. Klassikalise EDSi korral leitakse muutus COL5A1 või COL5A2 geenis, mis kodeerib V tüüpi kollageeni. Kõige levinum on hüpermobiilne EDS, moodustades 80–90% kõigist EDSi juhtumitest, kuid sellel ei ole ainsana geenimuutus teada ning diagnoos põhineb ainult kliinilisel pildil. Varajane haiguse äratundmine ja diagnoosimine on vajalik elukvaliteedi parandamiseks ja adekvaatseks tüsistuste ennetuseks. Artiklis on antud ülevaade EDSi alatüüpidest ning 3 levinuma alatüübi sümptomitest, kaasnevatest haigustest, diagnostikast ja ravist. Kirjeldatud on ka ühte klassikalise EDSi haigusjuhtu. Tänu kliinilisele diagnoosile pöördus patsient EDSi ekspertkeskuse poole ning sai raviprotokolli raseduse jälgimise kohta. Selle tulemusena sünnitas ta 2 tervet last. Hiljem kinnitati EDSi diagnoos ka molekulaargeneetiliselt – patsiendil leiti COL5A1 geenis patogeenne heterosügootne raaminihet põhjustav geenimuutus.

description: Duchenne’i lihasdüstroofia (DMD) on progresseeruva kuluga X-liitelise retsessiivse pärilikkusega neuromuskulaarne haigus, mida iseloomustab lapseeas algav kiiresti progresseeruv lihaste degeneratsioon, motoorse võimekuse langus, kõnnakuhäire, hingamispuudulikkuse kujunemine ja kardiomüopaatia. DMD tekib haigusseoseliste muutuste tõttu düstrofiini geenis, mille tagajärjel kas ei sünteesita üldse düstrofiinvalku või toodetakse düsfunktsionaalne valk. Duchenne’i lihasdüstroofia klassikalise ravi alustalad on kuni seniajani olnud füsioteraapia, ravi glükokortikosteroidiga ja multidistsiplinaarne rehabilitatsioon. Tähtsamad geeniteraapia ravisuunad DMD ravis on düstrofiini taastamine nonsenssgeenimuutuse supressiooni ehk läbilugemisteraapia abil, eksonit vahelejättev teraapia antisenssoligonukleotiidiga ja düstrofiini taastamine (viirus)vektorite abil.
Artikli eesmärk on anda ülevaade Duchenne’i lihasdüstroofiast, selle kliinilisest pildist, diagnoosimisest, klassikalisest ravist ja jälgimisest ning uudsetest geeniteraapia võimalustest. Artiklis on keskendutud kolmele kõige tähtsamale eespool nimetatud geeniteraapiale ning esitatud ka läbilugemisteraapia meetodil ravitud patsiendi haigusjuhu kirjeldus.

description: Nahka ja perifeerseid närve uuritakse Parkinsoni tõve kontekstis mitmetel põhjustel. Haigust seostatakse erinevate nahaprobleemidega, nagu melanoom ja seborroiline dermatiit, kuna need esinevad Parkinsoni tõbe (PT) põdevatel patsientidel tavalisest sagedamini. Parkinsoni tõvega patsientide seas on levinud perifeerne neuropaatia ning higistamise düsregulatsioon, mis võivad eelneda PT motoorsetele sümptomitele ja diagnoosile. Kuna nahk ja närvikude pärinevad ühisest embrüonaalsest eellasest ektodermist, uuritakse nahka neurodegeneratiivsete haiguste, näiteks Parkinsoni tõve patofüsioloogia paremaks mõistmiseks, võimalike biomarkerite avastamiseks ja neuroprotektiivsete tehnoloogiate väljatöötamiseks. Nahabiopsia kui mitteinvasiivne meetod pakub teadlastele huvi oma potentsiaali tõttu biomarkerite allikana ning nahast saadud fibroblaste on kasutatud tüvirakkudena neuronaalsete muutuste uurimisel ja tüvirakuteraapia väljatöötamiseks.

description: We calculate the difference of one-loop vacuum energies for massive scalar field in five-dimensional AdS black hole. (The same is done in five-dimensional deSitter space). In each case this difference is specified by the boundary conditions corresponding to the double-trace operator (massive term) and it describes RG flow in the manner discussed by Gubser-Mitra for pure AdS space. For AdS black hole there occurs instability which is the manifestation of the Hawking-Page phase transition. For stable phase of AdS black hole as well as for deSitter bulk, c-function found beyond the leading order approximation shows the monotonic behaviour consistent with c-theorem.

Formation and evolution of globular clusters in cosmological simulations

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)

description: In a series of three papers, we introduced a novel cluster formation model that describes the formation, growth, and disruption of star clusters in high-resolution cosmological simulations. We tested this model on a Milky Way-sized galaxy and found that various properties of young massive clusters, such as the mass function and formation efficiency, are consistent with observations in the local universe. Interestingly, most massive clusters -- globular cluster candidates -- are preferentially formed during major merger events. We follow the dynamical evolution of clusters in the galactic tidal field. Due to tidal disruption, the cluster mass function evolves from initial power law to a peaked shape. The surviving clusters at $z=0$ show a broad range of metallicity [Fe/H] from -3 to -0.5. A robust prediction of the model is the age--metallicity relation, in which metal-rich clusters are systematically younger than metal-poor clusters by up to 3 Gyr.

description: Active matter exhibits various forms of non-equilibrium states in the absence of external forcing, including macroscopic steady-state currents. Such states are often too complex to be modelled from first principles and our understanding of their physics relies heavily on minimal models. These have mostly been studied in the case of "dry" active matter, where particle dynamics are dominated by friction with their surroundings. Significantly less is known about systems with long-range hydrodynamic interactions that belong to "wet" active matter. Dilute suspensions of motile bacteria, modelled as self-propelled dipolar particles interacting solely through long-ranged hydrodynamic fields, are arguably the most studied example from this class of active systems. Their phenomenology is well-established: at sufficiently high density of bacteria, there appear large-scale vortices and jets comprising many individual organisms, forming a chaotic state commonly known as bacterial turbulence. As revealed by computer simulations, below the onset of collective motion, the suspension exhibits very strong correlations between individual microswimmers stemming from the long-ranged nature of dipolar fields. Here we demonstrate that this phenomenology is captured by the minimal model of microswimmers. We develop a kinetic theory that goes beyond the commonly used mean-field assumption, and explicitly takes into account such correlations. Notably, these can be computed exactly within our theory. We calculate the fluid velocity variance, spatial and temporal correlation functions, the fluid velocity spectrum, and the enhanced diffusivity of tracer particles. We find that correlations are suppressed by particle self-propulsion, although the mean-field behaviour is not restored even in the limit of very fast swimming.

Extended Self-Similarity in the Two-Dimensional Metal-Insulator Transition

description: We show that extended self-similarity, a scaling phenomenon firstly observed in classical turbulent flows, holds for a two-dimensional metal-insulator transition that belongs to the universality class of random Dirac fermions. Deviations from multifractality, which in turbulence are due to the dominance of diffusive processes at small scales, appear in the condensed matter context as a large scale, finite size effect related to the imposition of an infra-red cutoff in the field theory formulation. We propose a phenomenological interpretation of extended self-similarity in the metal-insulator transition within the framework of the random $β$-model description of multifractal sets. As a natural step our discussion is bridged to the analysis of strange attractors, where crossovers between multifractal and non-multifractal regimes are found and extended self-similarity turns to be verified as well.
