(Figs 2 a–f)
 Pantiala germari Faust, 1898: 205. (type locality: New Guinea) Redescription. Holotype, female (Figs. 2 a, e). Length 3.68 mm. Color black; elytra and pronotum with narrow patches of white scales. Rostrum slender, with lateral contours concave, weakly converging to antennal insertion; without median ridge, in apical half simple, sparsely punctate. Forehead densely, coarsely punctate, without median impression; bordering eye with sparse white scales. Pronotum 1.5 X wider than long; dorsally densely, coarsely punctate, towards sides foveate, interspaces reticulate; with white median line of recumbent, subovate scales; anterolaterally behind eye with patch of white scales becoming sparser posteriorly. Elytron with intervals flat, except sutural interval behind scutellum with weak, densely punctate swelling; interval 4 in apical 1/3 with elongate patch of white scales, forming angle with shorter patch of interval 6; interval 9 in basal half and subapically covered with white scales; base medially weakly constricted, almost straight. Thoracic venter. Ventral rim of mesothoracic receptacle punctate, with sparse white scales. Metaventrite laterally with sparse white scales. Legs. Femora and tibiae sparsely clothed with narrow white scales; apical third of femora dorsally more densely covered by white scales; femur and anterior tibial face of hind and midleg more densely clothed than of foreleg. Profemur in basal 1/3 with indistinct angulation. Abdominal venter with punctures of ventrites 1-2 bearing sparse white scales. Ventrite 5 sparsely covered with white scales. Female terminalia. Figs. 2 b–d.
 Material examined. Holotype by monotypy, female: Neu Guinea (labels Fig. 2 f), ARC 5043 (PCR failed); condition: fair; left foreleg missing; remounted on card; genitalia in glycerol in microtube (SMTD). Other material examined: 1 female, New Guinea,” Gebr. W. Müller Vermächtnis”, ARC 5044 (PCR failed) (SMTD).
 Distribution. New Guinea.
 Notes. Faust (1898) mentions that the description is based on a single, presumably female specimen. A second specimen arrived at a later date at SMTD and is not part of the type series. Both specimens exhibit some morphological differences and are likely to belong to different, though closely related species.

description: The rate of orders used to remove babies into the care of Oranga Tamariki reduced by more than half in Aotearoa New Zealand in 2019–2020 as a result of rapid reform, prompted by a high profile media case known as the ‘Hawkes Bay case’. This case provoked social outrage, leading to media and public approbation, inquiries by state and Māori bodies, and advocacy from multiple organisations. Combined, these challenged the legitimacy of the child protection system and led to ‘legitimacy work’, that is, attempts by Oranga Tamariki to regain legitimacy with multiple publics. Access to the legal orders used to remove babies was immediately constricted. A sharp decline in baby removals followed, both overall and the disparities between Māori and non-Māori. The focus on disparity indicators alone, skewed by a focus on public legitimacy, had several unintended consequences. These included a lag between the constrictions on orders and other reforms aimed at addressing the inequities causing disparities, the diminishment of social worker discretion, and limited attention to other forms of system accountability. In the absence of other outcome indicators, particularly those defined by Māori and system-involved families, it is difficult to draw conclusions regarding the efficacy of these changes.

description: Tabulated rates for astrophysical photodisintegration reactions make use of Boltzmann statistics for the photons involved as well as the interacting nuclei. Here we derive analytic corrections for the Planck-spectrum quantum statistics of the photon energy distribution. These corrections can be deduced directly from the detailed-balance condition without the assumption of equilibrium as long as the photons are represented by a Planck spectrum. Moreover we show that these corrections affect not only the photodisintegration rates but also modify the conditions of nuclear statistical equilibrium as represented in the Saha equation. We deduce new analytic corrections to the classical Maxwell-Boltzmann statistics which can easily be added to the reverse reaction rates of existing reaction network tabulations. We show that the effects of quantum statistics, though generally quite small, always tend to speed up photodisintegration rates and are largest for nuclei and environments for which Q/kT ~ 1. As an illustration, we examine possible effects of these corrections on the r-process, the rp-process, explosive silicon burning, the $γ$-process and big bang nucleosynthesis. We find that in most cases one is quite justified in neglecting these corrections. The correction is largest for reactions near the drip line for an r-process with very high neutron density, or an rp-process at high-temperature.

description: Despite much recent work, the true promise and limitations of the Quantum Alternating Operator Ansatz (QAOA) are unclear. A critical question regarding QAOA is to what extent its performance scales with the input size of the problem instance, in particular the necessary growth in the number of QAOA rounds to reach a high approximation ratio. We present numerical evidence for an exponential speed-up of QAOA over Grover-style unstructured search in finding approximate solutions to constrained optimization problems. Our result provides a strong hint that QAOA is able to exploit the structure of an optimization problem and thus overcome the lower bound for unstructured search.
 To this end, we conduct a comprehensive numerical study on several Hamming-weight constrained optimization problems for which we include combinations of all standardly studied mixer and phase separator Hamiltonians (Ring mixer, Clique mixer, Objective Value phase separator) as well as quantum minimum-finding inspired Hamiltonians (Grover mixer, Threshold-based phase separator). We identify Clique-Objective-QAOA with an exponential speed-up over Grover-Threshold-QAOA and tie the latter's scaling to that of unstructured search, with all other QAOA combinations coming in at a distant third. Our result suggests that maximizing QAOA performance requires a judicious choice of mixer and phase separator, and should trigger further research into other QAOA variations.

description: We consider two interacting systems when one is treated classically while the other system remains quantum. Consistent dynamics of this coupling has been shown to exist, and explored in the context of treating space-time classically. Here, we prove that such hybrid dynamics necessarily results in decoherence of the quantum system, and a breakdown in predictability in the classical phase space. We further prove that a trade-off between the rate of this decoherence and the degree of diffusion induced in the classical system is a general feature of all classical quantum dynamics; long coherence times require strong diffusion in phase-space relative to the strength of the coupling. Applying the trade-off relation to gravity, we find a relationship between the strength of gravitationally-induced decoherence versus diffusion of the metric and its conjugate momenta. This provides an experimental signature of theories in which gravity is fundamentally classical. Bounds on decoherence rates arising from current interferometry experiments, combined with precision measurements of mass, place significant restrictions on theories where Einstein's classical theory of gravity interacts with quantum matter. We find that part of the parameter space of such theories are already squeezed out, and provide figures of merit which can be used in future mass measurements and interference experiments.

description: Let $Φ$ a locally convex space and $Ψ$ be a quasi-complete, bornological, nuclear space (like spaces of smooth functions and distributions) with dual spaces $Φ'$ and $Ψ'$. In this work we introduce sufficient conditions for time regularity properties of the $Ψ'$-valued stochastic convolution $\int_{0}^{t} \int_{U} S(t-r)'R(r,u) M(dr,du)$, $t \in [0,T]$, where $(S(t): t \geq 0)$ is a $C_{0}$-semigroup on $Ψ$, $R(r,ω,u)$ is a suitable operator form $Φ'$ into $Ψ'$ and $M$ is a cylindrical-martingale valued measure on $Φ'$. Our result is latter applied to study time regularity of solutions to $Ψ'$-valued stochastic evolutions equations.

description: We have analyzed the energetics of decay of the X^- trion (exciton + electron) on the assumption that the exciton and trion are independent excitations of a single two-dimensional semiconducting quantum well. For the first time, it has been shown that in filling a well with electrons from a selective donor-doped matrix, the binding energy of the trion (of the electron with the exciton) increases linearly with a shift of the Fermi level into the depth of the c band. This agrees with the well-known experimental data on the low-temperature radiative decay (photoluminescence) of trions in the heterostructures ZnSe/Zn_0.89Mg_0.11S_0.18Se_0.82 and CdTe/Cd_0.7Mg_0.3Te.

Working with monoids in $\mathcal{E}$, we can generalise and extend the Koszul duality theory of Beilinson, Ginzburg, Soergel. We use an element-free approach to define the notions of Koszul monoids, and quadratic monoids and their duals. Schneiders' embedding of a quasi-abelian category into an abelian category, its left heart, allows us to prove an equivalence of certain subcategories of the derived categories of graded modules over Koszul monoids and their duals.

description: Stochastic gravitational wave background from the early Universe has a cut-off frequency close to 100 MHz, due to the horizon of the inflationary phase. To detect gravitational waves at such frequencies, resonant electromagnetic cavities are very suitable. In this work, we study the frequency sensitivity of such detectors, and show how we could use them to probe this cut-off frequency and also the energy density per frequency of this stochastic background. This paper paves the way for further experimental studies to probe the most ancient relic of the Universe.

description: We investigate low mass X-ray binaries (LMXBs) in the M31 globular cluster (GC) system using data from the 2XMMi catalogue. These X-ray data are based on all publicly available XMM-Newton observations of the galaxy. This new survey provides the most complete and homogeneous X-ray survey of M31's GCs to date, covering >80% of the confirmed old clusters in the galaxy. We associate 41 X-ray sources with confirmed old clusters in the M31 cluster catalogue of Peacock et al. (2010). Comparing these data with previous surveys of M31, it is found that three of these clusters are newly identified, including a bright transient source in the cluster B128. Four additional clusters, that are not detected in these 2XMMi data, have previously been associated with X-ray sources from Chandra or ROSAT observations. Including these clusters, we identify 45 clusters in M31 which are associated with X-ray emission. By considering the latest optical GC catalogues, we identify that three of the previously proposed X-ray clusters are likely to be background galaxies and two have stellar profiles. We consider the properties of LMXB-hosting clusters and confirm significant trends between the presence of an LMXB and the metallicity, luminosity and stellar collision rate of a cluster. We consider the relationship between the luminosity and stellar collision rate of a cluster and note that LMXB hosting clusters have higher than average stellar collision rates for their mass. Our findings strongly suggest that the stellar collision rate is the dominant parameter related to the presence of LMXBs. This is consistent with the formation of LMXBs in GCs through dynamical interactions.

description: Modern city governance relies heavily on crowdsourcing to identify problems such as downed trees and power lines. A major concern is that residents do not report problems at the same rates, with heterogeneous reporting delays directly translating to downstream disparities in how quickly incidents can be addressed. Here we develop a method to identify reporting delays without using external ground-truth data. Our insight is that the rates at which duplicate reports are made about the same incident can be leveraged to disambiguate whether an incident has occurred by investigating its reporting rate once it has occurred. We apply our method to over 100,000 resident reports made in New York City and to over 900,000 reports made in Chicago, finding that there are substantial spatial and socioeconomic disparities in how quickly incidents are reported. We further validate our methods using external data and demonstrate how estimating reporting delays leads to practical insights and interventions for a more equitable, efficient government service.

description: The improved astrometry precision of Gaia-eDR3 allows us to perform a detailed study of the Upper Scorpius OB association and revisit its spatial, kinematic, and age substructure. We achieve this by combining clustering techniques and complementing with age estimations based on Gaia photometry. Our census retrieves 3661 candidate members for Upper Scorpius with contamination $\sim$9\%. We also extract an astrometrically clean sample of 3004 sources with contamination $\sim$6\%. We show that Upper Scorpius can be divided into at least 3 main kinematic groups. We systematically investigate and characterize the Upper Scorpius' internal structure, revealing that at least $\sim 34\%$ of its stellar populations are contained in 7 spatial substructures, with well defined boundaries, kinematics and relative ages, with suggested names: $π$ Scorpii (20 $^{\pm2}_{\pm1}$ Myr), $α$ Scorpii (14$^{\pm2}_{\pm1}$ Myr), $δ$ Scorpii (9$^{\pm2}_{\pm1}$ Myr), $β$ Scorpii (8$^{\pm1}_{\pm1}$ Myr), $ω$ Scorpii (8$^{\pm1}_{\pm1}$ Myr), $ν$ Scorpii (7$^{\pm1}_{\pm1}$ Myr), after their brightest member, and the well known $ρ$ Ophiuchi (4$^{\pm1}_{\pm1}$ Myr). We find a clear correlation in (1) density-age, providing an empirical expansion law to be tested in other associations, and (2) tangential velocity-age, providing constrains on the dynamics of these substructures and the position of potential past triggering events. We estimate the time at which 4 potential supernovae events occurred in Upper Scorpius. Based on these findings, we tie together previous work on the region and suggest a star formation history with unprecedented temporal resolution.
description: After brief discussion with Pavel Kroupa about lower panel in Figure 11, we make note: the clusters in USco appear to be at their self-similar expansion phase, after their \sim 5 Myr long gas expulsion phase, in remarkable agreement with theoretical predictions by Kroupa et al.

It is found that the receding jet emission is generally very weak and only manifests as a plateau in the late time radio afterglow light curves. Additionally, we find that the effect of synchrotron self-absorption can influence the peak time of the receding jet emission significantly.

Analysis of Hic1-expressing cells in the murine pancreas and their role in tissue regulation and regeneration
Creators: name: Schreiner, Petra
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2016

description: Mesenchymal stromal cells (MSC) play fundamental roles in tissue development, homeostasis and regeneration and are associated with many pathological conditions. Previous studies analyzing MSCs in skeletal development identified a gene (Hypermethylated in Cancer 1, Hic1) that appears to be solely expressed within embryonic mesenchyme. Analysis of a novel Hic1nLacZ/⁺ mouse line revealed that Hic1 is restricted to interstitial stromal and perivascular cells. In pancreas, Hic1⁺ cells overlap extensively with Pdgfrα and Sca1, which together identify putative MSCs in various tissues. These cells also co-express several markers of Pancreatic Stellate cells (PSC), including vimentin, desmin, nestin and neural/glial antigen 2 (NG2). PSCs are considered effector cells in many pancreatic diseases including fibrosis and cancer, and become activated under these conditions. Using a novel fate-tracking Hic1CreERT² knock-in mouse, we have seen that under homeostatic conditions these cells are capable of some turnover, the labeled cells doubling in number over a 3-month period following induction of the reporter gene in adult 8-week old mice. After caerulein-induced pancreatic damage, the cells become activated, attaining smooth muscle actin α (αSMA) and Collagen-GFP expression, and incorporating EdU, with cells amassing in the damaged areas. Consistent with a potential role for Hic1 in regulating MSC quiescence, conditional deletion of Hic1 in the adult pancreas leads to significantly increased numbers of perilipin⁺ adipocytes in comparison to controls, and an increased number of nLacZ⁺ cells. CD45- CD31- Sca1⁺ cells proliferate at a higher rate after Hic1-deletion. Mouse weight and blood glucose are unaffected. Functional studies into the role of Hic1 have found that Hic1-deletion resulted in a significantly less damage after caerulein-induced damage. This work has identified Hic1 as a novel marker of PSCs and set the stage for a greater understanding of the role of these mesenchymal stromal cells (MSCs) in pancreatic diseases.

description: Under the hypotheses of analyticity, locality, Lorentz covariance, and Poincare invariance of the deformations, combined with the requirement that the interaction vertices contain at most two spatiotemporal derivatives of the fields, we investigate the consistent interactions between a single massless tensor field with the mixed symmetry (3,1) and one massless tensor field with the mixed symmetry (2,2). The computations are done with the help of the deformation theory based on a cohomological approach, in the context of the antifield-BRST formalism. Our result is that dual linearized gravity in D=6 gets coupled to a purely spin-two field with the mixed symmetry of the Riemann tensor such that both the gauge transformations and first-order reducibility relations in the (3,1) sector are changed, but not the gauge algebra.

description: The equivalence between metric and Palatini formalisms in f(R)-gravity can be achieved in the general context of theories with divergence free current. This equivalence is a necessary result of a symmetry which is included in a particular conservation equation of the current. In fact the conservation equation, by an appropriate redefinition of the introduced auxiliary field, may be encoded in a massless scalar field equation.

We also prove our new rectangular paths conjecture in the special case when the sides of the rectangle are coprime.

description: Gas cooling processes in the interstellar medium (ISM) are key to understanding how star-formation processes occur in galaxies. Far-infrared (FIR) fine-structure emission lines can be used as a tool to understand the gas conditions and trace the different phases of the ISM. We model the most important far-infrared (FIR) emission lines throughout cosmic time back to $z=6$ with cosmological hydrodynamical simulations. We study how different physical parameters, such as the interstellar radiation field (ISRF) and metallicity, impact the ISM phases traced by FIR line luminosities and connect those with the star-formation rate (SFR). We implement a physically motivated multi-phase model of the ISM by post-processing EAGLE cosmological simulation with Cloudy look-up tables. In this model, we assume four phases of the ISM: dense molecular gas, neutral atomic gas, diffuse ionised gas (DIG) and HII regions. Our model shows good agreement with the observed luminosity-SFR relation up to $z=6$ in the FIR emission lines analysed and we also provide linear fits. Our predictions also agree with observations in terms of diagnostic diagrams involving various line ratios. We find that [C II] is the best SFR tracer of the FIR lines even though it traces multiple ISM phases, while [O III] and [N II] can be used to understand the DIG-HII balance in the ionised phase. In addition, line ratios like [C II]/[O III] and [N II/[O I] are useful to trace parameters such as ISRF, metallicity and specific star-formation rate. These results help to interpret observations of FIR line emission from the local Universe to high-$z$ galaxies.

description: Calculations within density functional theory on the basis of the local density approximation are carried out to study the properties of intrinsic point defects in aluminum antimonide. Special care is taken to address finite-size effects, band gap error, and symmetry reduction in the defect structures. The correction of the band gap is based on a set of GW calculations. The most important defects are identified to be the aluminum interstitial $Al_{i,Al}^{1+}$, the antimony antisites $Sb_{Al}^0$ and $Sb_{Al}^{1+}$, and the aluminum vacancy $V_{Al}^{3-}$. The intrinsic defect and charge carrier concentrations in the impurity-free material are calculated by self-consistently solving the charge neutrality equation. The impurity-free material is found to be n-type conducting at finite temperatures.

Synthesis and performance of an alkylating agent sensor
Creators: name: Provencher, Philip
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: 4-(4-nitrobenzyl)pyridine (NBP) is a colorimetric indicator compound for many types of carcinogenic alkylating agents. It is used in the toxicological screening of pharmaceutical compounds, detection of chemical warfare agents, environmental hygiene technology, and other chemical analyses. We report a synthesis of NBP-derivatives that allow for the covalent incorporation of NBP into a solid state sensor. These derivatives have been tested in solution and found to be superior in the colorimetric assay of the alkylating agent cyclophosphamide. The derivatives have also been integrated into a polymeric silica material which changes color upon the exposure to dangerous alkylating agents like iodomethane. This material modernizes the NBP assay from a time consuming laboratory analysis to a real-time solid state sensor, which requires neither solvent nor additional reagents, and can detect gas and solution-phase alkylating agents. The NBP assay is used extensively in preliminary tests for determining toxicology profiles and mutagenicity of medicinal compounds because of its similar reactivity to guanine in DNA. The use of NBP as a DNA model suffers from the compound’s low solubility in water, its lack of reactive oxygen sites and dissimilar steric encumbrance compared to DNA. The compounds synthesized in this report attempt to address several of these problems associated with the use of NBP as a DNA model: (1) A water soluble derivative of NBP has been synthesized, and thus an aqueous assay may more closely reflect in vivo conditions, which is an important property in toxicology testing; (2) NBP-derivatives synthesized herein have reactive oxygen sites, which also improves the similarity of these compounds to DNA, since many hard carbocations react at oxygen in DNA; and (3) the polymeric nature of the solid sensors synthesized may more well reflect the sterics of DNA, which is a polymer.

description: Additional file 3: Figure S2. Effect of manual additions and extension of the number of studied bird genomes to the landscapes of the presence and length index. a. In each genome we verified manually whether "missing" genes were in fact present in the genome databases but under a different name than the standard gene name (or a LOCnumber). This resulted in an extended common vertebrate gene set with 15,624 genes (i.e. 489 more than the fully automated set of 15,135 genes). b. The landscapes are very similar using the manually curated and automated methods. This means that, despite this manual curation, the phenomenon of 14 regions in the human genome, in which bird have less genes annotated, the genes are still present as partial sequences. c. The clustering of “missing genes” and of “missing gene fragments” was reanalyzed in a set of 75 avian genome instead of 8 with the outcome that the clustered absence of gene information (minima in the missing gene index and maxima of the length index) does not change.
