description: While the binary distinctions hot-cold, day-night, were and are vital for the entire biosphere, the stories about light and darkness, good and evil are in foundations of various versions of the “myth of origin” of almost all known cultures, past and present. Not only our existential/biological needs but also our cultural values and narratives are determined by the properties of earliest living molecules. We structure our life around day and night. Day is light, warmer and clear; night is dark, colder and uncertain. Simply, light is good, dark is bad. We structure each year according to seasons that all relate to warm-cold, light-dark and have rituals marking the transitions from one season to another with the help of numerous sun-gods

description: Cheyletus malaccensis (Oudemans) is a species of predatory mite, which is widely distributed in grain storage, and is a potential natural enemy of stored-product pests. Based on the typical temperatures and humidities that occur in granaries, the growth and development of C. malaccensis was studied at 24°C with different relative humidities (RH 65±2%, 75±2%, 85±2% and 95±2%). During this study, C. malaccensis was fed on Acarus siro (Linnaeus), a very important stored grain pest to investigate its potential to control this pest and production of this natural enemy in the laboratory. The results showed that C. malaccensis has five developmental stages, egg, larva, protonymph, deutonymph and adult. The deutonymph stage is absent in males. For females, the developmental time from egg to adult was shortest at 85±2 % RH and averaged 16.3 days; developmental time was longest at 65±2 % RH and averaged 18.6 days. The male mites in the 95±2% RH trials had the shortest developmental time which averaged 12.6 days; it was longest at 65±2% RH where it averaged 14.7 days. At 95±2% RH, the male adult lived 83.5 d and its longevity from egg to adult was 95.8 d. Humidity had a significant effect on how long the adults lived and the duration of all developmental stages. At 85±2 % RH, the maximum average number of eggs per female, oviposition period and daily fecundity were 493.0, 46.2 d, and 10.3, respectively. This study provides basic biological parameters for C. malaccensis, a potential biological control agent for mite pests infesting stored grain.

Insulin/IGF-like signalling and brain ageing in Drosophila melanogaster

Publisher: name: Lancaster University

description: Human life expectancy has been steadily increasing since the mid-nineteenth century in developed countries, mainly due to improved public health and lifestyle changes, which has led to the increasing prevalence of age-related diseases. Understanding the biological mechanisms of ageing is essential to improve human health at older ages and extend health-span. Reduced Insulin/IGF-like signalling (IIS) improves longevity and some measures of health-span in model organisms, such as C. elegans, Drosophila melanogaster and Mus musculus, suggesting an evolutionarily conserved role. Recent studies, however, have found a disconnection between lifespan extension and behavioural health-span. It was recently shown that selective reduction of IIS in Drosophila neurons extended female lifespan but did not improve negative geotaxis senescence and had a detrimental effect on exploratory walking senescence in both sexes. This project addresses the following two hypotheses: (1) the negative effects of reduced IIS on behavioural senescence may be due to detrimental effects on neuronal function at older ages that outweigh any positive effects of reduced IIS on neuronal ageing; and/or (2) individual neuronal subtypes respond differently to IIS changes, thus the behavioural outcomes of pan-neuronal IIS reduction are the sum of a mixture of positive, negative and neutral functional effects. We found that adult-specific pan-neural IIS reduction is sufficient to extend female lifespan and result in detrimental but reversible effects on behavioural senescence. The data suggest that the detrimental behavioural effects of reduced pan-neuronal IIS are likely due to a reduction in neuronal function and are not due to accelerated neuronal ageing. Altered Drosophia Insulin-like preptide (dilp) expression observed in response to adult pan-neuronal IIS reduction in females may suggest an endocrine mechanism of lifespan extension involving modulation of dilps from the brain insulin producing cells and fat body. IIS reduction in specific neuronal subtypes either does not affect or has detrimental effects on lifespan and health-span suggesting that individual neuronal subtypes do respond differently to IIS changes. We did not find evidence that the ageing of neurons is altered by reduced IIS and further work is needed to elucidate the molecular mechanisms involved in lifespan extension and reduced neuronal function due to reduced pan-neuronal IIS.

description: Pingwu Fuzhuan brick tea (PWT), a distinctive post-fermentation tea originated from Pingwu region of Sichuan province in China, is a popular “western road” border-selling tea. In this study, we investigated characteristics and chemical compositions of PWT, together with comparing its physicochemical properties with other regions of Fuzhuan brick teas (FBTs). Firstly, inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) was used to determine the geographical origin of FBTs, and the profiles of mineral elements were subjected to principal component analysis (PCA) to evaluate the differences among FBTs. Results from ICP-MS showed that the compositions of mineral elements from PWT, Hunan FBT (HNT), Shaanxi FBT (SNT), and Guizhou FBT (GZT) were distinctly different. The four different types of FBTs were clearly distinguished according to the results of PCA. Furthermore, all FBT samples were assessed for physicochemical properties and heatmap method was applied to data analysis. It was found that the total colour difference was highly distinct when compared PWT with HNT, SNT and GZT. Moreover, most of contents of biochemical compounds (gallic acid, catechins, free amino acids, alkaloids and volatile components) in PWT were lower compared to others except for total essential amino acids, GABA, aldehydes and acids.

description: Trisomy 21, or Down syndrome (DS), was the most frequent human autosomal chromosome aeuploidy, which would lead to multiple developmental disorders, especially for mental retardation in individuals. The presence of additional human chromosome 21 (Hsa21) could account for the pathological manifestations in DS. In this study, we analyzed the mRNA gene expression profile of DS derived amniocytes compared with normal, aiming to evaluate the relationship between candidate dysregulated Hsa21 genes and DS developmental phenotype.

title: Shopping for Vibrators with my Abuela… #Space #Representation and #Latinidad in @JanetheVirgin
Creators: name: Guarino, Maria
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2020

description: Jane the Virgin debuted on the CW in 2014 at a time when anti-immigrant, particularly anti-Mexican and anti-Latinx, sentiment in the U.S. felt very prevalent. This TV show was the latest to offer representations of Latin@s at the forefront and advanced a distinct political stance on immigration by calling for #immigrationreform. The series has not only been a ratings hit amongst the Latinx community, but has garnered wide acclaim from other races, ethnicities, and gender identities across the United States. This thesis explores the representation of the character of Alba (Ivonne Coll), through an investigation of the various physical and linguistic spaces which she occupies within the narrative of Jane the Virgin, and investigates how these spaces facilitate character growth, transformation, and a challenge to pre-established notions of Latinidad in U.S. mainstream television. It also questions the genre of Jane the Virgin itself, showing how the show’s unique hybridization of the televenovela genre and the sitcom contribute to its diverse spectatorship, both welcoming the dominant American viewer without alienating the Latinx viewer. Lastly, it brings attention to the usage of social media within the show’s narrative as well as outside of it. Building off of Mark Prenski’s generation of “Digital Natives” (2001), I call for a pedagogical shift and literacy in social media from scholars today to effectively engage and dialogue with what I coin “Social Media Natives.”
In exploring these various facets of representation in Jane the Virgin, I show how the occupation of “safe spaces” and “non-safe spaces” affects development– whether that be of Alba’s character, the dominant American spectator, or the “Social Media Immigrant” scholar. This work is informed by Michel de Certeau’s concept of “space” in The Practice of Everyday Life (1984), and utilizes Moira Kenney’s identification of “safe space” in Mapping Gay L.A., (2015). Intended to contribute to intersectional feminist race studies, this work also uses Judith Butler’s theory of gender performativity to negotiate identity (1990), Kimberlé Crenshaw’s notion of intersectionality (1989), and engages with somatic racialization and shaming proposed by Stephanie Fetta in her recent publication Shaming into Brown (2018).

description: We study correlated quantum impurity models which undergo a local quantum phase transition (QPT) from a strong coupling, Fermi liquid phase to a non-Fermi liquid phase with a globally doubly degenerate ground state. Our aim is to establish what can be shown exactly about such `local moment' (LM) phases; of which the permanent (zero-field) local magnetization is a hallmark, and an order parameter for the QPT. A description of the zero-field LM phase is shown to require two distinct self-energies, which reflect the broken symmetry nature of the phase and together determine the single self-energy of standard field theory. Distinct Friedel sum rules for each phase are obtained, via a Luttinger theorem embodied in the vanishing of appropriate Luttinger integrals. By contrast, the standard Luttinger integral is non-zero in the LM phase, but found to have universal magnitude. A range of spin susceptibilites are also considered; including that corresponding to the local order parameter, whose exact form is shown to be RPA-like, and to diverge as the QPT is approached. Particular attention is given to the pseudogap Anderson model, including the basic physical picture of the transition, the low-energy behavior of single-particle dynamics, the quantum critical point itself, and the rather subtle effect of an applied local field. A two-level impurity model which undergoes a QPT (`singlet-triplet') to an underscreened LM phase is also considered, for which we derive on general grounds some key results for the zero-bias conductance in both phases.

description: Energetic trade-offs are particularly pertinent to bio-ballistic systems which impart energy to projectiles exclusively during launch. We investigated such trade-offs in the spring-propelled seeds of Loropetalum chinense, Hamamelis virginiana and Fortunearia sinensis. Using similar seed-shooting mechanisms, fruits of these confamilial plants (Hamamelidaceae) span an order of magnitude in spring and seed mass. We expected that as seed mass increases, launch speed decreases. Instead, launch speed was relatively constant regardless of seed mass. We tested if fruits shoot larger seeds by storing more elastic potential energy (PE). Spring mass and PE increased as seed mass increased (in order of increasing seed mass: L. chinense, H. virginiana, F. sinensis). As seed mass to spring mass ratio increased (ratios: H. virginiana = 0.50, F. sinensis = 0.65, L. chinense = 0.84), mass-specific PE storage increased. The conversion efficiency of PE to seed kinetic energy (KE) decreased with increasing fruit mass. Therefore, similar launch speeds across scales occurred because (i) larger fruits stored more PE and (ii) smaller fruits had higher mass-specific PE storage and improved PE to KE conversion. By examining integrated spring and projectile mechanics in our focal species, we revealed diverse, energetic scaling strategies relevant to spring-propelled systems navigating energetic trade-offs.

description: It has been known for a long time that stellar metallicity plays a significant role in the determination of the ages of the different Galactic stellar populations, when main sequence evolutionary tracks are employed. Here we analyze the role that metallicity plays on the white dwarf luminosity function of the Galactic disk, which is often used to determine its age. We employ a Monte Carlo population synthesis code that accounts for the properties of the population of Galactic disk white dwarfs. Our code incorporates the most up-to-date evolutionary cooling sequences for white dwarfs with hydrogen-rich and hydrogen-deficient atmospheres for both carbon-oxygen and oxygen-neon cores. We use two different models to assess the evolution of the metallicity, one in which the adopted metallicity is constant with time, but with a moderate dispersion, and a second one in which the metallicity increases with time. We found that our theoretical results are in a very satisfactory agreement with the observational luminosity functions obtained from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and from the SuperCOSMOS Sky Survey (SSS), independently of the adopted age-metallicity law. In particular, we found that the age-metallicity law has no noticeable impact in shaping the bright branch of the white dwarf luminosity function, and that the position of its cut-off is almost insensitive to the adopoted age-metallicity relationship. Because the shape of the bright branch of the white dwarf luminosity function is insensitive to the age-metallicity law, it can be safely employed to test the theoretical evolutionary sequences, while due to the limited sensitivity of the position of the drop-off to the distribution of metallicities, its location provides a robust indicator of the age of the Galactic disk.

description: We elaborate on the topological order in the Kitaev chain, a p-wave superconductor with nearest-neighbor pairing amplitude equal to the hopping term Delta=t, and chemical potential mu=0. In particular, we write out the explicit eigenstates of the open chain in terms of fermion operators, and show that the states as well as their energy eigenvalues are formally equivalent to those of an Ising chain. The models are physically different, as the topological order in the Kitaev chain corresponds to conventional order in the Ising model.

description: In the CGC framework the initial stages of a heavy ion collision at high energy are described as "glasma" field configurations. The initial condition for these evolving fields depends, in the CGC effective theory, on a probability distribution for color charges. The energy dependence of this distribution can be calculated from the JIMWLK renormalization group equation. We discuss recent work on a practical implementation of the running coupling constant in the Langevin method of solving the JIMWLK equation.

description: Teaching students critical thinking is a basic characteristic of most higher education while the skill has a range of impacts on graduates’ academic, professional and personal capacities. As students become critical thinkers, they are better prepared to develop a successful professional career and play a role as democratic citizens. Despite the educational reforms that have been undertaken in Egypt and the wider Arab world over the last two decades, changes intended to reduce rote learning and memorization and enhance instructors’ skills to promote critical thinking skills and active learning, most students in the Arab world still lack these same skills. The purpose of this study is to investigate how teaching at an international university in Egypt fosters the learning and practice of critical thinking.
The use of small neutron detector arrays for the assessment of nuclear materials comprising 235-U, 238-U and 240-Pu
Creators: name: O'Donnell, Helen
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2020

description: Neutron metrology has important applications in areas such as nuclear safeguards, quality assurance, and nuclear power operations. To date, the most common detectors for performing neutron metrology have been 3He detectors. With 3He production in decline, it has become supply-constrained and alternatives are being sought as potential replacements. Liquid organic scintillation detectors are an option, and in particular the relatively recent development of EJ-309 liquid scintillant is a forerunner for the replacement of 3He. This thesis is a study of the appropriateness of small arrays of organic liquid scintillation detectors for the characterisation of 235U, 238U, and 240Pu using total-neutron-counting and coincidence counting during active and passive assessments. Constraints of the equipment and methods are also reported. To do this, five studies have been carried out with a number of cubic EJ-309 detectors; comprising a combination of experimental investigations and MCNP simulations. They have assessed: optimal detector geometries; the use of a neutron shielding cube for measurements of forensic-style samples; an investigation into the applicability of the detectors for total-neutron-counting during the active assay of a broad-range of 235U enrichments; the measurement of total-neutron-count of spontaneous fission neutrons from 238U and a proof-of-concept of a plutonium-contaminated material drum monitor using coincidence counting. The neutron shielding cube and broad-range of 235U experiments suggest that the EJ-309 detectors are suitable for measuring small samples of 235U actively using total-neutron-count. The investigations into measuring the ultra-low-level emission of spontaneous fission neutrons from 238U, and the assessment of 1 mg of PuO2/PuF4 in a 200 litre drum, are evidence of the system’s ability to measure particularly small neutron fluxes, in total-neutron-counting-mode and coincidence-mode. The detectors performed well in all investigations when the length of time of assay was chosen appropriately. In most tests, the EJ-309 detectors outperform comparable 3He detector-based systems, due to their ability to detect fast neutrons directly. The lack of efficiency of the detectors below 0.5 MeV does discount them for thermal neutron detection.

description: We study synchronization in a Kuramoto model of globally coupled phase oscillators with a bi-harmonic coupling function, in the thermodynamic limit of large populations. We develop a method for an analytic solution of self-consistent equations describing uniformly rotating complex order parameters, both for single-branch (one possible state of locked oscillators) and multi-branch (two possible values of locked phases) entrainment. We show that synchronous states coexist with the neutrally linearly stable asynchronous regime. The latter has a finite life time for finite ensembles, this time grows with the ensemble size as a power law.

description: In recent years, academic librarians’ roles have increasingly encompassed practices of knowledge production, spurred in part by their role in supporting the creation and dissemination of university research outputs. Shifts in institutional trends have also seen librarians’ widespread adoption of Twitter to share information and encourage collaboration. There is little research, however, about relationships between knowledge production in HE and librarians’ Twitter practices. The few existing studies about librarians and Twitter tend to trivialise such work as promotional. This thesis investigates the mundane work and practical politics animating academic librarians’ practices of knowledge production via Twitter. Guided by a theoretical framework about knowledge infrastructures that posits that designing and maintaining infrastructure has concomitant effects on knowledge production, this multi-sited ethnography was informed by six librarians from one UK research-intensive university. Empirical data was generated from two rounds of interviews, Twitter activity diaries, Twitter Analytics data, a focus group and written follow-up questions. Research outcomes suggest that as academic librarians negotiate the promises (i.e., the perceived potential or possibilities) of Twitter, they engage in practices of knowledge production. Four main practices of librarians implicated in their knowledge production via Twitter include justifying Twitter work as efforts to contest stereotypes of librarians (Invisibility); grounding Twitter work in modern interpretations of librarian’s ‘traditional’ values (Roots); managing the multiple scales and ambiguous engagement of Twitter (Scale); and troubling institutional hierarchies to foster scholarly community, whilst spurring new vocational identities for librarians (Culturality). By building a holistic picture of librarians’ practices, the thesis contributes insights into new and devolved practices of knowledge production in HE, thus complicating depictions of university professional groups in the scholarly literature. The study furthermore suggests that drawing attention to quiet areas of work in the university helps demonstrate the fragility and contingency of practices in HE considered static or unassailable.

description: We study the algebras of differential operators invariant with respect to the scalar slash actions of real Jacobi groups of arbitrary rank. These algebras are non-commutative and are generated by their elements of orders 2 and 3. We prove that their centers are polynomial in one variable and are generated by the Casimir operator. For slash actions with invertible indices we also compute the characters of the IDO algebras: in rank exceeding 1 there are two, and in rank 1 there are in general five. In rank 1 we compute in addition all irreducible admissible representations of the IDO algebras.

description: An insecticidal efficacy of two newly developed grain protectant formulations were assessed against lesser grain borer Rhyzopertha dominica (Fabricius) (Coleoptera: Bostrichidae) on wheat and corn after 6 months period of. Tested formulations, marked as F1H and F2H, based on inert dust, laurel leaves, lavender essential oil, corn oil, silica gel (both F1H and F2H) and pyrethrin (only F2H) were tested at six doses (from 100 ppm to 600 ppm) depending on formulation and type of grain. The appropriate weights of each formulation, were added seperately to plastic containers containing 10 kg of wheat or corn. An initial population of 200 adults of R. dominica were added into each container and left under natural environmental conditions for up to 6 months. A commercial diatomaceous earth (DE) insecticide, Celatom® Mn 51, was used for the comparison of the results, in addition to the untreated control. After six months, both formulations showed higher insecticidal effect than DE Mn 51 in corn and in wheat. Furthermore, the initial population of R. dominica, introduced in wheat was suppressed almost completely, with only 0.7%-5.3% live adults found, depending on formulations and dose. The order of efficacy was F1H>F2H>DE Mn 51. Similar suppression of the initial population was recorded in corn, where F2H was slightly more effective than F1H with 2.0%-10.6% and 4.1%-9.5% live adults found, respectively. At the same time, in the treatments with DE Mn 51 there were 4.7%-74.7% and 33.4%-56.1% live adults in wheat and corn, respectively.

description: Probiotics intake has been widely used to treat or prevent intestinal diseases through the manipulation of the gut microbiota and alteration of metabolites. However, the metabolism of bile acids (BAs) by probiotics to regulate host metabolism is poorly understood. With a connection to BA metabolism, the gut-liver axis has gained increased attention in recent years. In this study, an in vitro fermentation model was used to investigate the alteration of BAs and gut microbiota. Five commercial multispecies probiotics were used to explore the BAs' metabolism and gut microbiota regulation. The results showed that five of the probiotics complexes could modulate the human gut microbiota. The amounts of Lactobacillus and Bifidobacterium strains were significantly increased in probiotics complex E. The biotransformation of BAs by different probiotic strains, may become a potential intervention for metabolic diseases in humans.

description: Switch-mode power supplies are commonly used in various household and business equipment because of their effective ability to convert DC voltages. The buck converter is a switch-mode power supply that boosts voltage by reducing the DC input voltage. A specific output filter must be designed for the converter, one that accounts for the switching frequency, required output voltage, and suitable inductor ripple. When designing filters, engineers are often forced to choose components that are out of the ordinary, costly, or difficult to manufacture. As a second method of control, this work employs double-loop proportional-integral controllers. In this way, the suggested research simplifies all calculations by reducing them from many design strategies to a single proportional-integral design method. The model is then used to develop parameters for the double-loop proportional-integral controller, which are then validated in simulation and experimental trials using a variety of disturbance effects. By comparing the suggested controller to others and demonstrating its effectiveness with the help of set performance criteria, we can show that it performs admirably in a variety of conditions, such as model uncertainty.

description: Efficiency in embedded systems is paramount to achieve high performance while consuming less area and power. Processors in embedded systems have to be designed carefully to achieve such design constraints. Application Specific Instruction set Processors (ASIPs) exploit the nature of applications to design an optimal instruction set. Despite being not general to execute any application, ASIPs are highly preferred in the embedded systems industry where the devices are produced to satisfy a certain type of application domain/s (either intra-domain or inter-domain). Typically, ASIPs are designed from a base-processor and functionalities are added for applications. This paper studies the multi-application ASIPs and their instruction sets, extensively analysing the instructions for inter-domain and intra-domain designs. Metrics analysed are the reusable instructions and the extra cost to add a certain application. A wide range of applications from various application benchmarks (MiBench, MediaBench and SPEC2006) and domains are analysed for two different architectures (ARM-Thumb and PISA). Our study shows that the intra-domain applications contain larger number of common instructions, whereas the inter-domain applications have very less common instructions, regardless of the architecture (and therefore the ISA).

description: The Collaborative Research Center 1412 “Register: Language Users’ Knowledge of Situational-Functional Variation” (CRC 1412) investigates the role of register in language, focusing in particular on what constitutes a language user’s register knowledge and which situational-functional factors determine a user’s choices. The following paper is an extract from the frame text of the proposal for the CRC 1412, which was submitted to the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft in 2019, followed by a successful onsite evaluation that took place in 2019. The CRC 1412 then started its work on January 1, 2020. The theoretical part of the frame text gives an extensive overview of the theoretical and empirical perspectives on register knowledge from the viewpoint of 2019. Due to the high collaborative effort of all PIs involved, the frame text is unique in its scope on register research, encompassing register-relevant aspects from variationist approaches, psycholinguistics, grammatical theory, acquisition theory, historical linguistics, phonology, phonetics, typology, corpus linguistics, and computational linguistics, as well as qualitative and quantitative modeling. Although our positions and hypotheses since its submission have developed further, the frame text is still a vital resource as a compilation of state-of-the-art register research and a documentation of the start of the CRC 1412. The theoretical part without administrative components therefore presents an ideal starter publication to kick off the CRC’s publication series REALIS.

description: My thesis is an analysis of my own translation of a chapter from Dominik Nagl's legal history 'Grenzfälle,' which addresses questions of citizenship and nationality in the context of the German colonies in Africa and the South Pacific. My analysis focuses primarily on strategies that I used in an effort to preserve the strangeness of a linguistic context that is, in many ways, "foreign" to twenty first-century North Americans while also striving to avoid reproducing the violence embedded in language that is historically laden with extreme power disparities.

description: We present the analysis of the inclusive $K^{0}$ production in p+p and p+Nb collisions measured with the HADES detector at a beam kinetic energy of 3.5 GeV. Data are compared to the GiBUU transport model. The data suggest the presence of a repulsive momentum-dependent kaon potential as predicted by the Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT). For the kaon at rest and at normal nuclear density, the ChPT potential amounts to $\approx 35$ MeV. A detailed tuning of the kaon production cross sections implemented in the model has been carried out to reproduce the experimental data measured in p+p collisions. The uncertainties in the parameters of the model were examined with respect to the sensitivity of the experimental results from p+Nb collisions to the in-medium kaon potential.
