Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We apply a recently developed analytic model for the evolution of monopole networks to the case of monopoles attached to one string, usually known as hybrid networks. We discuss scaling solutions for both local and global hybrid networks, and also find an interesting application for the case of vortons. Our quantitative results agree with previous estimates in indicating that the hybrid networks will usually annihilate soon after the string-forming phase transition. However, we also show that in some specific circumstances these networks can survive considerably more than a Hubble time.

description: This is a work in analytic metaphysics, which addresses a cluster of interrelated issues at the interface of mereology and persistence over time. In particular, it outlines a defence of a version of Endurance Theory according to which every enduring object is either a mereological simple or a mere sum of mereological simples. It includes, among other things, a proposal of a new way of framing the debate between Endurance Theory and Four-Dimensionalism, a defence of Endurance Theory over Four-Dimensionalism, arguments against the existence of compound substances, and a defence of a traditional metaphysical atomism according to which all objects are ultimately made up of microscopic simples.

description: We have studied the prospects of measuring the CP violating phase with atmospheric neutrinos at a large magnetized iron calorimeter detector considering the muons (directly measurable) of the neutrino events generated by a MonteCarlo event generator Nuance. The effect of $θ_{13}$ and $δ_{CP}$ appears dominantly neither in atmospheric neutrino oscillation nor in solar neutrino oscillation, but appears as subleading in both cases. These are observable in range of $E \sim 1$ GeV for atmospheric neutrino, where solar and atmospheric oscillation couple. In this regime, the quasi-elastic events dominate and the energy resolution is very good, but the angular resolution is very poor. Unlike beam experiments this poor angular resolution acts against its measurements. However, we find that one can be able to distinguish $δ_{CP}\approx 0^\circ$ and $180^\circ$ at 90% confidence level. We find no significant sensitivity for $δ_{CP}\approx 90^\circ$ or $270^\circ$.

Challenging the disk instability model: I -- The case of YZ LMi

description: Observations of YZ LMi show enhanced emission along the stream trajectory beyond impact at disk rim during outbursts as well as when the quiescent disk is large. We investigated whether these features can be explained in terms of either gas stream overflow or penetration within the frameworks of the disk-instability (DIM) and the mass-transfer instability (MTIM) models of outbursting disks. Gas stream overflow is not possible because the vertical scaleheight of the stream is significantly lower than that of the outer disk and because there is no combination of parameters which enables stream overflow on a larger disk while preventing it on a smaller disk. Stream penetration requires the gas stream to be denser than the outer disk regions. This requirement cannot be met by a low-viscosity DIM disk because its density is significantly larger than that of the gas stream over the whole range of mass transfer rates where the thermal-viscous instability occurs. On the other hand, the high-viscosity MTIM disk has much lower densities which decrease with increasing radius, easily allowing for gas stream penetration during outbursts (when mass transfer rate and stream density increase) as well as in large quiescent disks. The observed features are not consistent with DIM, but can be plausibly explained by MTIM. These results suggest that the outbursts of YZ LMi are the response of a high-viscosity disk to bursts of enhanced mass transfer rate. In this case, the outburst decline timescale of (2-3) d implies a viscosity parameter in the range alpha=3-4.

description: We investigate optimal control strategies for state to state transitions in a model of a quantum dot molecule containing two active strongly interacting electrons. The Schrodinger equation is solved nonperturbatively in conjunction with several quantum control strategies. This results in optimized electric pulses in the THz regime which can populate combinations of states with very short transition times. The speedup compared to intuitively constructed pulses is an order of magnitude. We furthermore make use of optimized pulse control in the simulation of an experimental preparation of the molecular quantum dot system. It is shown that exclusive population of certain excited states leads to a complete suppression of spin dephasing, as was indicated in Nepstad et al. [Phys. Rev. B 77, 125315 (2008)].

Yukon community government
Creators: name: Sharp, Robert R.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Rural settlements in the Yukon differ from their southern counterparts in that they are characterized by a number of factors such as: geographic isolation, social division of the settlement along White-Indian ethnic lines and political isolation in that many communities have no local mechanism for formulating representative inputs to senior levels of government. These conditions have given rise to difficulties in the administering of rural community' affairs. Residents of these settlements expressed discontent with the way in which community related decisions were made without their involvement. Government agencies on the other hand are confronted with conflicting inputs formulated by individuals or groups from communities so that determining what is representative of the settlement is not an easy task. The thesis addresses the problems of local participation in the governing of community affairs in six similar, ethnically mixed rural Yukon communities. A five month research program during which interviews were conducted and observations recorded and the author's three year residency in one of the settlements studied, provided the material for the descriptive section of the thesis. Descriptions of the socio-political character of six settlements and their relationships with senior government and descriptions of the government agencies which frequently interact of proposed local governments. A tentative proposal of local circulated among respondents in rural communities. Responses to the questionnaire, in addition to responses to questions about the existing type of local government provide a basis for the analysis. The analysis conducted in the thesis indicates that a type of local government with specified form, functions, and role are not flexible enough to encompass the diversity which exists among inferences from these findings are that the Territorial Government should formulate the guidelines for local government allowing the specifics to be worked out between the Territorial Government and the residents of each rural settlement so that the particular local government is perceived as appropriate to the socio-political character of the community. In closing, the thesis discusses the implications of these findings may hold for the development of local government in general.

description: Automatic methods for identifying and tracking pressure systems have been traditionally focused on cyclones (and particularly on tropical cyclones), but the question of anticyclone centre detection remained unsolved since they are usually not a source of turbulent weather, precipitation, etc. An algorithm for automatic detection of both, cyclones and anticyclones based on the mean sea-level pressure field, is presented. The main advantages of our solution are easy implementation based on two-dimensional raster data, sufficient performance of the algorithm, and especially the possibility of high-pressure systems detection. Moreover, the presented solution does not need direct terrain filtering.

title: Immune modulation by Marek's Disease Virus
Creators: name: Boodhoo, Nitish
Publisher: name: University of Reading
Year: 2019

description: The emergence of highly pathogenic Marek’s Disease Virus (MDV) strains, defined by acute onset of Marek’s Disease (MD), has led to renewed emphasis for understanding host-pathogen interaction. Little is known about the mechanism of MDV replication due to its highly cell associated nature. An association between lipid metabolite remodelling and MDV infection in MD-susceptible lines of chickens based on atherosclerotic plaque formation has been previously established. Immunosuppressive lipid can impair immune system cell function; limit activation, infiltration into active sites of virus replication and modulate recognition of infected cells. Therefore the correlates of immune protection are unknown as antigen specific T cell responses against MDV have yet to be reported. Our primary objective was to use a pathway interference approach to study lipid biosynthesis. We demonstrate that infection with MDV leads to induction of fatty acid synthesis that can contribute towards eicosanoid synthesis in a COX-2 dependent manner. Specifically we identified induction of prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) biosynthesis in MDV infected CEFs and demonstrate a dependence for replication. Eicosanoids are well characterised for their ability to modulate immune system cell function including T cells. The second objective was to evaluate in vivo T cell responses or cell mediated immunity against MDV in both the MD-resistant (B21) and MD-susceptible (B19) lines of chicken. We demonstrate detection of a T cell response against MDV with the eliciting response directed against viral MEQ and pp38 in chickens that were either challenged (RB1B), vaccine (CVI988/RISPENS)-challenged (RB1B) or vaccine-boosted but not mock infected. CD4+TCRvβ1+ cells were the main responding T cell subset recognising the identified immunodominant pp38 epitopes (pp385-20, pp38161-176 and pp38171-186) in all the MDresistant (B21) and MD-susceptible (B19) lines of chicken. Induction of transcripts for cytokines (IL-2, IL-4 and IL-10) and CD4+ T cell proliferation was observed in a peptide specific manner. However, challenge impaired the ability of T cell to degranulate based on cell surface translocation of CD107a; although peptide specific induction for transcript of perforin and granzyme B can be detected. Taken together we demonstrate that T cell responses against MDV are limited and may be linked to lipid induced biosynthesis.

description: Supernatural inflation is an attractive model based just on a flat direction with soft SUSY breaking mass terms in the framework of supersymmetry. The beauty of the model is inferred from its name that the model needs no fine-tuning. However, the prediction of the spectral index is $n_s \gae 1$, in contrast to experimental data. In this paper, we show that the beauty of supernatural inflation with the spectral index reduced to $n_s=0.96$ without any fine-tuning, by considering the general feature that a flat direction is lifted by a non-renormalizable term with an A-term.

description: Wikipedia is an important free source of intelligible knowledge. Despite that, Brazilian Portuguese Wikipedia still lacks descriptions for many subjects. In an effort to expand the Brazilian Wikipedia, we contribute PLSum, a framework for generating wiki-like abstractive summaries from multiple descriptive websites. The framework has an extractive stage followed by an abstractive one. In particular, for the abstractive stage, we fine-tune and compare two recent variations of the Transformer neural network, PTT5, and Longformer. To fine-tune and evaluate the model, we created a dataset with thousands of examples, linking reference websites to Wikipedia. Our results show that it is possible to generate meaningful abstractive summaries from Brazilian Portuguese web content.

The Influence of Galaxy Formation Physics on Weak Lensing Tests of General Relativity

description: Forthcoming projects such as the DES, a JDEM, and LSST, aim to measure weak lensing shear correlations with unprecedented accuracy. Weak lensing observables are sensitive to both the distance-redshift relation and the growth of structure in the Universe. If the cause of accelerated cosmic expansion is dark energy within general relativity (GR), both cosmic distances and structure growth are governed by the properties of dark energy. Consequently, one may use lensing to check for this consistency and test GR. After reviewing the phenomenology of such tests, we address one major challenge to such a program. The evolution of the baryonic component of the Universe is highly uncertain and can influence lensing observables, manifesting as modified structure growth for a fixed cosmic distance scale. Using two proposed methods, we show that one could be led to reject the null hypothesis of GR when it is the true theory if this uncertainty in baryonic processes is neglected. Recent simulations suggest that we can correct for baryonic effects using a parametrized model in which the halo mass-concentration relation is modified. The correction renders biases small compared to statistical uncertainties. We study the ability of future weak lensing surveys to constrain the internal structures of halos and test the null hypothesis of GR simultaneously. Compared to nulling information from small-scales to mitigate sensitivity to baryonic physics, this internal calibration program should provide limits on deviations from GR that are several times more constraining. Specifically, we find that limits on general relativity in the case of internal calibration are degraded by only ~30% or less compared to the case of perfect knowledge of nonlinear structure.

Planet-planet scattering in planetesimal disks II: Predictions for outer extrasolar planetary systems

description: We develop an idealized dynamical model to predict the typical properties of outer extrasolar planetary systems, at radii beyond 5 AU. Our hypothesis is that dynamical evolution in outer planetary systems is controlled by a combination of planet-planet scattering and planetary interactions with an exterior disk of small bodies ("planetesimals"). Using 5,000 long duration N-body simulations, we follow the evolution of three planets surrounded by a 50 Earth mass primordial planetesimal disk. For large planet masses (above that of Saturn) the influence of the disk is modest, and we recover the observed eccentricity distribution of extrasolar planets (observed primarily at smaller radii). We explain the observed mass dependence of the eccentricity by invoking strong correlations between planet masses in the same system. For lower mass planets we observe diverse dynamical behavior: strong scattering events, sudden jumps in eccentricity due to resonance crossings, and re-circularization of scattered low-mass planets in the disk. We present distributions of the final eccentricity and inclination, and discuss how they vary with planet mass and initial system architecture. We predict a transition to lower eccentricities for low mass planets at radii where disks influence the dynamics. Radial velocity measurements capable of detecting planets with K~5 m/s and periods in excess of 10 years will constrain this regime. We also study the population of resonant and non-resonant multiple planet systems. We show that, among systems with Jupiter-mass planets that avoid close encounters, the planetesimal disk acts as a damping mechanism that frequently populates mean motion resonances. Resonant chains ought to be common among massive planets in outer planetary systems.

description: The elaboration of multimodal nanoparticles stimulates tremendous interest owing to their numerous potentialities in many applicative fields like optoelectronics, photonics and especially bioimaging. The concomitant association of various properties (optical, electrochemical, magnetic) allows for the use of complementary stimuli in order to probe the interactions between the nanoparticles and their surroundings.Nanoparticles (NPs) have thus become highly praised tools to image cells and tissues with a large contrast compatible with the dimensions of biological materials and the existence of quantum confinement effects induced by the reduced dimensions. In this context, the combination of magnetism and emissive properties such as fluorescence appears particularly attractive for non-invasive investigations, cell sorting or drug vectorization. Therefore, combining both fluorescence and magnetism requires the delicate construction of hybrid assemblies. Most of the magnetic nanoparticles are made of metallic oxides or alloys, e.g. gamma-Fe2O3, Fe3O4, FePt, while the target fluorescent entities are often organic dyes or quantum dots (QDs).

title: The Synod of Dordrecht 1618-1619. The Influence of Calvinism on the Development of Freedom in the Netherlands in the Period 1560-1630
Creators: name: van Burik, Joseph A.
Publisher: name: Old Dominion University Libraries
Year: 2001

description: The Synod of Dordrecht was an important event in the history of the Dutch Republic. A serious, combined religious and political conflict between orthodox and liberal Calvinists had brought the Republic to the brink of civil war. The forceful intervention of the stadholder Prince Maurice in 1617 had cleared the political situation and it was the task of the Synod to solve the religious aspect of the conflict. The Synod was a victory for orthodox Calvinism; the Reformed Church, the state and local governments were purged from liberal elements, and new laws, limiting further the freedom for non-Reformed religions were decreed. This thesis sees the Synod of Dordrecht as a remarkable moment in the ongoing process of interaction between the Calvinists and the rest of the Dutch population. This interaction will be analyzed in order to explore the influence of Calvinism upon the development of freedom in the Netherlands.

The Calvinists were fanatical and well motivated, but they were a small minority of the population. To achieve their goal, they needed the support of the powerful group in the middle. In the southern provinces of the Netherlands fundamentally different ideas about freedom prevented a lasting cooperation between the nobility and the Calvinists. In the northern provinces the Calvinists formed a successful coalition with the regents. Two groups, the Calvinists and the regents, which needed each other, but at the same time tried to achieve different goals, determined the political history of the Dutch Republic. Most of the time there was a balance, but there were times in which the balance was seriously disturbed. The Synod of Dordrecht is a moment in the history of the Republic in which the balance was disturbed in favor of the Calvinists.

The conclusion of the thesis is that Calvinism had a significant influence on the Netherlands, and that without the Calvinists the Dutch Republic, with its unique tolerant society, never would have existed. Ironically, this toleration was the reaction of the group in the middle against the intolerance of the Calvinists.
title: Strategic logic and ability: revisiting the Arab-Israeli wars
Creators: name: Boraik, Mohammed
Publisher: name: University of Reading
Year: 2019

description: This study explores how strategy links operational art, conduct and objectives to the achievement of political aims in war. It develops the concept of "strategic ability" as an analytical framework to assess the ability of states and non-state actors to perceive, institutionalize and practice strategy. While other factors affecting the outcome of war should be considered, political success in the immediate aftermath of war is best explained by having an advantageous ability in strategy making during the war; generating sound grand and military strategies, and guiding the operational capabilities and art to the fulfilment of strategic requirements. The crux of "strategic logic" is the use of military and non-military means to affect the political will of the enemy by specific ways and scales while keeping the means­ways-ends calculus right. This is invariable but its contextualization varies with the times and within each case. Political-military relations should be organized in ways compatible with political structure and permitting specific functions: information sharing, critical assessment, clear political authorization, the formidable position of the military and strategic intervention of the political leadership. Operational art is not a fixed formula but it should be highly contextual, strategy sensitive and promoting jointness. This research is based on multiple case studies from the Arab-Israeli wars. It shows that Israel has consistently demonstrated weak strategic ability in regular wars apart from the 1948 War thanks to Ben-Gurion, and more so in irregular wars, which explains the comparatively small political gains it has achieved despite its outstanding battle-space decisiveness. The Arabs, focusing on the Egyptians, suffered from malfunctioning political and social dimensions which prevented their huge human and natural resources from being channelled into operational counter-­capabilities or strategic ability. Only in the first stage of the 1973 War and later with the rise of Hezbollah, has the modest improvement in the Arabs' strategic ability been sufficient to expose Israel's consistent weakness in strategy making, which has otherwise been concealed by the Arabs' incompetent performance.
Thermal Casimir effect with soft boundary conditions

description: We consider the thermal Casimir effect in systems of parallel plates coupled to a mass-less free field theory via quadratic interaction terms which suppress (i) the field on the plates (ii) the gradient of the field in the plane of the plates. These boundary interactions correspond to (i) the presence of an electrolyte in the plates and (ii) a uniform field of dipoles, in the plates, which are polarizable in the plane of the plates. These boundary interactions lead to Robin type boundary conditions in the case where there is no field outside the two plates. In the appropriate limit, in both cases Dirichlet boundary conditions are obtained but we show that in case (i) the Dirichlet limit breaks down at short inter-plate distances and in (ii) it breaks down at large distances. The behavior of the two plate system is also seen to be highly dependent on whether the system is open or closed. In addition we analyze the Casimir force on a third plate placed between two outer plates. The force acting on the central plate is shown to be highly sensitive to whether or not the fluctuating scalar field is present in the region exterior to the two confining plates.

description: Surprisingly few solar coronal loops have been observed simultaneously with TRACE and SOHO/CDS, and even fewer analyses of these loops have been conducted and published. The SOHO Joint Observing Program 146 was designed in part to provide the simultaneous observations required for in-depth temperature analysis of active region loops and determine whether these loops are isothermal or multithermal. The data analyzed in this paper were taken on 2003 January 17 of AR 10250. We used TRACE filter ratios, emission measure loci, and two methods of differential emission measure analysis to examine the temperature structure of three different loops. TRACE and CDS observations agree that Loop 1 is isothermal with Log T $=$ 5.85, both along the line of sight as well as along the length of the loop leg that is visible in the CDS field of view. Loop 2 is hotter than Loop 1. It is multithermal along the line of sight, with significant emission between 6.2 $

description: This study aims to describe the process of reception and assimilation of Husserlian phenomenology in France, articulated in two parallel traditions, namely the philosophy of subject and the philosophy of concept. The former is linked to the interpretation of Levinas-Sartre and the latter to the epistemological heritage of Koyré-Cavaillès. Finally, we briefly present the critical trace of Cavaillès in certain authors directly or indirectly related to his critique of phenomenology (Tran Duc Thao, S. Bachelard and Derrida).

The scope of the conference was to bring together most of the scientists working in the field of Lyman-alpha emitters, whether at low or high redshift, or on observational or theoretical aspects, and to summarise how far the field of study of galaxies with Lyman-alpha emission has come. An outlook towards the future of the field was also desired. As part of the conference, two days were dedicated to in total six discussion sessions. The topics were i) new methods and selection methods, ii) morphology, iii) what can the local Universe observations tell us about the high redshift Universe?, iv) clustering, v) SED fitting and vi) Ly-alpha blobs. The chairs of those sessions were asked to summarise the discussions, as presented in these proceedings.

title: Modelling elephant movements and population dynamics using remote sensing of food availability
Creators: name: Boult, Victoria Louise

description: Biodiversity conservation has limited resources so must identify and prioritise the most critical threats facing species and ecosystems. This is especially apparent in light of current rates of global change which alter the abundance, distribution and resilience of species and habitats. Traditional approaches to understand the impacts of change have generally related variation in environmental factors to species’ dynamics, but these methods are unreliable when making predictions under novel conditions. Process-based approaches are built on fitness-maximising mechanisms that are robust to change and thus present the opportunity to both project the effects of global change and identify the most significant threats facing species. This PhD aimed to develop process-based models to simulate the impacts of environmental change on the elephants of Amboseli in Kenya. Food availability was considered a key driver of elephant movement decisions and demographic rates throughout. Satellite-derived measures of vegetation were calibrated with ground-based measures of biomass and used to estimate the food available to elephants through time and space. Elephant tracking data was used to confirm the importance of food availability as a key driver of elephant movement decisions and to identify additional explanatory variables, including risk and reproductive state, which mediated elephant space-use. An individualbased model (IBM) was developed and calibrated to accurately predict historic elephant population dynamics emerging from temporal variation in food availability. The IBM was subsequently used to project the impacts of changes in food availability resulting from anthropogenic climate change and habitat conversion on Amboseli’s elephants. Using climate projections for different greenhouse gas emissions scenarios and land use scenarios based on empirical data and stakeholder opinion, the model predicted elephant population size through the 21st century. Model results identified habitat conversion, rather than climate change, as the primary threat facing Amboseli’s elephants. Future model developments through the incorporation of behavioural mechanisms, spatially explicit landscapes and multiple stressors would provide more robust predictions of elephant population responses to environmental change. Nonetheless, the work presented here documents an early example of a process-based model developed to inform land management decisions and the conservation of Amboseli elephants.
Analysis of manufacturing location in Greater Vancouver
Creators: name: Richmond, Gerald Morley
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: This thesis represents an empirical analysis of manufacturing location in Greater Vancouver based primarily upon the analysis of the returns to a location survey questionnaire mailed to manufacturing plants in Greater Vancouver employing over fifteen employees. In this questionnaire respondents are asked to assess the importance of a set of location factors in their regional locational decision. The quantitative techniques employed to analyze these returns seek to examine the similarity and difference in patterns of response among various industry types and size classes of respondents. The returns to this questionnaire are shown to possess severe limitations with regard to scope of coverage and format of the questionnaire itself in view of their utility as a data base for a study of metropolitan manufacturing location. Suggestions are therefore made with regard to how these limitations could have been overcome to furnish data of greater utility. This thesis, as a reflection of the limitations in its primary empirical data base, does not yield a great number of generally applicable findings. The findings however which do emerge are related to statements in the voluminous body of industrial location literature. The relevance of these findings to the planner concerned with the development of policy to regulate and accommodate manufacturing activity within Greater Vancouver is also discussed. The methodology employed and supplementary approaches suggested within this thesis would be applicable to more comprehensive metropolitan industrial location questionnaire returns. Suggestions with regard to improvements in questionnaire format are of general applicability and could contribute substantially to improving the quality of industrial location surveys in general, particularly at the metropolitan level of analysis. Such improvements could also lead to the gradual construction of industrial location theory of greater empirical utility.

description: Through top-quark pair productions at LHC, we study possible effects of nonstandard top-gluon couplings yielded by SU(3)xSU(2)xU(1) invariant dimension-6 effective operators. We calculate the total cross section and also some distributions for p p -> t tbar X as functions of two anomalous-coupling parameters, i.e., the chromoelectric and chromomagnetic moments of the top, which are constrained by the total cross section sigma(p pbar -> t tbar X) measured at Tevatron. We find that LHC might give us some chances to observe sizable effects induced by those new couplings.

title: Elucidation of Listeria monocytogenes response against oxidative stress
Creators: name: Boura, Márcia Carlos Rocha
Publisher: name: University of Reading

description: Listeria monocytogenes is a foodborne pathogen associated with high mortality rates. Its success is partially due to its ability to survive and grow in a wide range of stressful conditions, such as oxidative stress (OS). The role of the main transcriptional stress regulator, SigB, for OS was assessed. It was determined that the presence of sigB made the cells sensitive to OS, showing a decreased survival and impaired growth in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in stationary phase. This hyper-sensitivity was accompanied by a decreased catalase activity and kat expression in the WT strain, in comparison with the ∆sigB. SigB is known to be activated by acidic pH and visible light, which could make the cells even more sensitive to OS. It was determined that cells pre-exposed to low pH were less tolerant to a subsequent oxidative challenge. Visible light, however had a dual effect. Not only was it able to promote sigB activation but also lead to the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in sub-lethal concentrations. Light-derived ROS can generate an adaptive response, making the cells more resistant to a subsequent oxidative challenge, overcoming the detrimental effects of SigB activation. It was described that bacterial cells in exponential phase of growth showed very low levels of dissolved oxygen (DO) possibly affecting oxidative stress resistance and other phenotypic characteristics. To study the effect of these low oxygen levels, and uncouple the stage of growth from these micro-aerophilic conditions we aimed at increasing the levels of oxygen in the culture. To achieve this, L. monocytogenes was grown in a bio-reactor set-up with constant aeration and agitation. The DO was successfully increased and bacterial cells were significantly more resistant to OS, and showed significantly more catalase activity, in comparison with cells grown in the conventional set-up. Furthermore, we discovered a possible role for the GAD system in oxidative stress. We found that the presence of a well functional glutamate decarboxylase (GAD) system is important for a correct response against OS. Mutants lacking components of the GAD system were tested and ∆gadD3 in both EGD-e and 10403S, and ∆gadD1 in LO28, were found to be significantly impaired in its ability to grow and survive in H2O2. lt was proposed that the intracellular GAD system contributes to the maintenance of intracellular anti-oxidant molecules important for OS tolerance.
HYMAD: Hybrid DTN-MANET Routing for Dense and Highly Dynamic Wireless Networks

description: In this paper we propose HYMAD, a Hybrid DTN-MANET routing protocol which uses DTN between disjoint groups of nodes while using MANET routing within these groups. HYMAD is fully decentralized and only makes use of topological information exchanges between the nodes. We evaluate the scheme in simulation by replaying real life traces which exhibit this highly dynamic connectivity. The results show that HYMAD outperforms the multi-copy Spray-and-Wait DTN routing protocol it extends, both in terms of delivery ratio and delay, for any number of message copies. Our conclusion is that such a Hybrid DTN-MANET approach offers a promising venue for the delivery of elastic data in mobile ad-hoc networks as it retains the resilience of a pure DTN protocol while significantly improving performance.

description: The automorphism group of a binary doubly-even self-dual code is always contained in the alternating group. On the other hand, given a permutation group $G$ of degree $n$ there exists a doubly-even self-dual $G$-invariant code if and only if $n$ is a multiple of 8, every simple self-dual $\F_2G$-module occurs with even multiplicity in $\F_2^n$, and $G$ is contained in the alternating group.

description: We propose a method to determine the relative strength of Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit interaction from transport measurements without the need of fitting parameters. To this end, we make use of the conductance anisotropy in narrow quantum wires with respect to the directions of an in-plane magnetic field, the quantum wire and the crystal orientation. We support our proposal by numerical calculations of the conductance of quantum wires based on the Landauer formalism which show the applicability of the method to a wide range of parameters.
