description: Making use of infinite projected entangled pair states, we investigate the ground state phase diagram of the nearest-neighbor spin-1 bilinear-biquadratic Heisenberg model on the triangular lattice. In agreement with previous studies, we find the ferromagnetic, 120 degree magnetically ordered, ferroquadrupolar and antiferroquadrupolar phases, and confirm that all corresponding phase transitions are first order. Moreover, we provide an accurate estimate of the location of the ferroquadrupolar to 120 degree magnetically ordered phase transition, thereby fully establishing the phase diagram. Also, we do not encounter any signs of the existence of a quantum paramagnetic phase. In particular, contrary to the equivalent square lattice model, we demonstrate that on the triangular lattice the one-dimensional Haldane phase does not reach all the way up to the two-dimensional limit. Finally, we investigate the possibility of an intermediate partially-magnetic partially-quadrupolar phase close to $θ= π/2$, and we show that, also contrary to the square lattice case, this phase is not present on the triangular lattice.

Kenya CLEWs model
Creators: name: Roberto, Heredia-Fonseca
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: This working paper describes the use of existing open-source energy models explicitly developed for Kenya. The first model presents the whole energy system, encompassing power generation, industrial, and transportation sectors, among others. The second model is a Climate, Land, Energy, and Water system (CLEWs) model, focusing on intricate interdependencies between the energy and land systems within the Kenyan context. The CLEWs model presents the interlinkages evident in sectors such as cooking (representing energy) and agriculture (representing land). While both models address aspects of the energy system, the CLEWs model uniquely integrates additional dimensions such as land and water systems.

Merging these models has the potential to capture additional interactions between various systems. For instance, the utilization of fossil fuels extends beyond energy generation to activities in the land and water domains, including mechanization and pumping, respectively. Similarly, electricity finds application in residential settings for irrigation and public water distribution, showcasing interdependencies across sectors.

Furthermore, each model is characterized by individual data input parameters, which carry uncertainties. Consequently, a proposed future step post-merger involves conducting a global sensitivity analysis (GSA). A GSA will enable finding influential versus non-influential parameters within the model. Influential parameters capable of substantially altering model outcomes are particularly interesting, notably the objective function (OF) in the context of energy system models (ESMs). Central to the model's optimization problem, the OF seeks to minimize total system costs encompassing infrastructure, operational, maintenance, and fuel-related expenditures.

Identifying influential input parameters is a crucial component of factor prioritization. It offers insights into model behavior and facilitates informed discussions on sectoral interactions within ESMs. The expected findings will have significant implications for integrated land, energy, and water systems, shedding light on the pivotal role of specific parameters within the CLEWs modeling framework.
Switch & simplification of antiretroviral therapy
Creators: name: Waters, Laura Jane
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2012

description: The advent of combined antiretroviral therapy (cART) has transformed HIV care such that most individuals can expect a normal or near normal life expectancy. Managing HIV is increasingly focused on the prevention and treatment of non-infectious co-morbidities and dealing with drug-related side effects and toxicities, the main reasons for switching cART. Switching cART can be complicated by pharmacokinetic (PK) interactions and modern, potent agents may allow us to move away from the standard ‘three active drugs’ mantra. This thesis examines the pharmacokinetic impact of switching directly from efavirenz, widely used for initial therapy, to etravirine and to maraviroc. The impact of efavirenz to etravirine switch on central nervous system side effects was also investigated in a double-blind trial. In addition the value of pre-treatment tropism testing to guide susceptibility to maraviroc is explored. Finally a large cohort analysis explored the importance of active nucleoside analogues in a boosted protease inhibitor based, second line regimen for patients who had failed first line non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor therapy. The pharmacokinetic studies confirmed a prolonged induction effect of efavirenz and a novel finding that this induction effect varies according to which agent is used. The tropism analysis showed that tropism switch during suppressive therapy is uncommon thus supporting the use of pre-treatment testing as a guide to future switch. Individuals with ongoing central nervous symptoms on efavirenz experienced significant improvement in switch to etravirine, the first time this has been proven in a randomised, blinded trial; furthermore significant lipid improvements were observed. Finally the cohort analysis suggested that the number of new or active nucleosides in a second line boosted PI-based combination does not affect virological outcomes; simpler second line regimens should be considered and could provide several advantages over more complex choices.
M-Theory Reconstruction from (2,0) CFT and the Chiral Algebra Conjecture

description: We study various aspects of the M-theory uplift of the $A_{N-1}$ series of $(2,0)$ CFTs in 6d, which describe the worldvolume theory of $N$ M5 branes in flat space. We show how knowledge of OPE coefficients and scaling dimensions for this CFT can be directly translated into features of the momentum expansion of M-theory. In particular, we develop the expansion of the four-graviton S-matrix in M-theory via the flat space limit of four-point Mellin amplitudes. This includes correctly reproducing the known contribution of the $R^4$ term from 6d CFT data. Central to the calculation are the OPE coefficients for half-BPS operators not in the stress tensor multiplet, which we obtain for finite $N$ via the previously conjectured relation [arXiv:1404.1079] between the quantum ${\cal W}_N$ algebra and the $A_{N-1}$ $(2,0)$ CFT. We further explain how the $1/N$ expansion of ${\cal W}_N$ structure constants exhibits the structure of protected vertices in the M-theory action. Conversely, our results provide strong evidence for the chiral algebra conjecture.

Radiation effects in optical link components for future particle physics detectors
Creators: name: Stejskal, Pavel
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2013

description: Optical link components used in future particle physics experiments will typically be exposed to intense radiation fields during the lifetime of the experiment and the qualification of these components in terms of radiation tolerance is thus required. Data on semiconductor lasers and photodiodes for use in 10 Gb/s datalinks tested during high-fluence (in excess of 10[to the power of 15] particles/cm2) neutron and pion irradiation in 2009 and 2010 are presented with annealing data. In order to predict the behaviour of a laser irradiated with the different particle fluxes at different locations inside a particle physics experiment, radiation damage in lasers has been modelled. The model describes the degradation of the L-I characteristic of a semiconductor laser undergoing irradiation with the annealing processes taken into account. The robustness of the model has been checked against the experimental data. Additionally, the author’s method to estimate Single Event Upsets in photodetectors using GEANT4 is presented. Use of optoelectronic devices in digital data transmission systems in HEP detectors is also discussed.
Advanced Linked Cluster Expansion. Scalar Fields at Finite Temperature

description: Linked cluster expansions provide a useful tool for both analytical and numerical investigations of lattice field theories. The expansion parameter(s) being the interaction strength(s) fields at neighboured lattice sites are coupled, they result into convergent hopping parameter like series for free energies, correlation functions and in particular susceptibilities. We consider scalar fields with O(N) symmetric nearest neighbour interactions on hypercubic lattices with possibly finite extension in some directions, thus including field theories at finite temperature T. We improve known and develop new techniques and algorithms to increase the order n the expansions can be computed to in such a way that detailed information on critical behaviour can be extracted from the susceptibility series. This concerns both simple moments as well as higher correlations such as 4- and 6-point functions used to define renormalized coupling constants. Particular emphasis is done on finite temperature field theory. In order to be able to measure finite T critical behaviour, the order of explicit computation n has to be sufficiently large compared to 1/T in lattice units. 2- and 4-point susc. series are computed up to and including the 18th order and beyond.

The role of interleukin-31 in human allergic disease
Creators: name: Stott, Bryony Alexandra
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2012

description: The newly described cytokine Interleukin (IL) 31 has been shown to be expressed by murine activated T lymphocytes of a Th2 phenotype. Like IL-17 and IL-22, IL-31 is a tissue signalling cytokine whose receptor is mainly found on non-immune cells. An over-abundance of IL-31has been demonstrated in atopic diseases of the skin and transgenic mice engineered to over-express IL-31develop the symptoms of atopic dermatitis (AD) such as pruritus, inflammation and alopecia. Allergic asthma and rhinitis share characteristics of AD such as pruritus and Th2 cell driven inflammation but the role IL-31 may play in these diseases is unknown. The aim of this thesis was threefold; firstly to investigate whether IL-31 is expressed in the airway and peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) derived from patients with allergic rhinitis. Secondly, this study explored the regulation of IL-31 expression from T-cells to understand the conditions under which IL-31 is expressed and investigate whether IL-31 is a Th2 cytokine like IL-4 and IL-13. Finally we investigated the function of IL-31, with respect to its effect on normal human bronchial epithelial cells (NHBE). The influence of IL-31 on the gene expression of NHBE was comprehensively investigated with a single colour whole genome microarray. Basal IL-31 expression was higher in PBMC from atopic donors compared to healthy controls and very strongly up-regulated in response to allergen stimulation. IL-31 protein was also detected in skin and nasal biopsies by immunohistochemistry. IL-31 was expressed by Th2 T-cell clones and not by Th1, Th17 or Th22. This expression was dependent on autocrine IL-4 expression and even Th1 clones were able to express IL-31 if IL-4 was added to culture. IL-31 alone had a marginal effect on the gene expression of NHBE but was found to act in synergy with Th2 cytokines to amplify the expression of pro-inflammatory chemokines and growth factors. Taken together, IL-31 appears to be a cytokine induced by allergen stimulation that can enhance and maintain allergic inflammation.

Publisher: name: Macquarie University

Subjects: classificationCode: 350301
subject: Business analytics

description: Climate change has heightened the importance of understanding public sentiment towards renewable energy because it influences policy and investment decisions. This study develops a renewable energy sentiment index for Australia by examining tweets related to renewable energy. Its sentiment analysis approaches include three lexicon-based methods and ChatGPT, and they are compared using Plutchik’s three-dimensional circumplex model. The research employs business analytics techniques such as web crawling, text mining, and data mining to measure and analyse opinions, emotions, and sentiments in written documents. The study aims to provide insights into the factors that shape public perceptions of renewable energy and to assess the effectiveness of various sentiment analysis approaches, while also offering valuable information for policymakers and stakeholders in the renewable energy sector.ChatGPT is applied to sentiment analysis in this study, which compares the performance of lexicon-based approaches with that of ChatGPT to evaluate their effectiveness in extracting sentiment information from social media content. The study finds that ChatGPT provides significantly higher agreement with human-based polarity classification of tweets than lexicon-based approaches provide. Overall, our findings suggest that ChatGPT seems to provide results superior to those of lexicon-based sentiment classification approaches. Furthermore, our results reveal that the level of joy expressed in renewable energy tweets decreased from 59.5% to 54.1% between the two time periods. Moreover, there was an increase in the level of anger expressed in tweets, from 34.8% to 40.1%, following the Russian attack on Ukraine. Thus, our findings suggest that overall sentiment expressed on Twitter regarding renewable energy in Australia has become less positive and more negative since the war in Ukraine began. It is important to note that the study did not investigate the causes behind the observed changes in sentiment. Nonetheless, our findings highlight the need to monitor changes in public sentiment towards renewable energy and to identify factors that could potentially contribute to shifts in sentiment.

description: Soluble endoglin (sEng) is a fragment of a membrane-associated receptor (CD105) expressed on endothelial cells, mesenchymal stem cells and trophoblast cells. It is considered as a regulatory factor involved in the development of preeclampsia (PE) and cancer-associated neo-angiogenesis. The purpose of this study was to describe a new sandwich ELISA for sEng quantification. In contrast to three commercial kits, the new ELISA was able to quantify sEng not only in blood plasma and cell culture supernatants, but also in urine and cerebrospinal fluid. The assay detected up to two orders of magnitude higher antigen levels than did the commercial kits. Using Western blot assay followed by SDS-PAGE or Blue Native PAGE, we demonstrated a heterogeneous nature of sEng molecules. Antigen heterogeneity is considered as a factor contributing to the pronounced differences in its content estimations by different ELISAs. We obtained evidence indicating that the assay was capable of detecting heterogenious sEng molecules. The new ELISA was validated as a quick, specific and accurate method for sEng quantification. Despite the differences in antigen content estimates, the assay had similar diagnostic performance as widely used commercial kit for the detection of severe PE in pregnant women based on plasma sEng contents. Moreover, the new assay was able to delineate diseased patients based on antigen levels in urine. Therefore, the new ELISA is a potentially valuable tool for in vitro and clinical studies.

We find that some of the differences between orbifold group actions on the C field are classified by H^3(G, U(1)). We also compute the phases that the low-energy effective action of a membrane on T^3 would see in the analogue of a twisted sector, and note that they are invariant under the obvious SL(3,Z) action.

Modelling of the Caspian Sea
Creators: name: Farley Nicholls, James
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2013

description: More advanced models of climate systems are needed for use in present day weather forecasting and climate projection, and there is a drive towards the use of coupled modelling of various processes to achieve this goal. This thesis seeks to investigate coupled ocean-atmosphere-wave modelling using the latest generation of models. The test basin for this investigation is the Caspian Sea, where accurate representation of the water budget is vital for prediction of water level changes, which have historically seen trends of up to 15 cm/year. The individual models of atmosphere, waves and ocean are first run separately to investigate their skill in predicting observed conditions in the Caspian. These models capture the behaviour of the basin when model results are compared with observed wind speeds, currents, wave heights, sea-surface temperatures and precipitation. The coupling of the ROMS ocean and WRF atmosphere models is seen to improve sea-surface temperature prediction, but, under the Janjic Eta surface layer scheme used here, increases evaporation above the level expected. The additional inclusion of wave coupling from the SWAN model decreases strong winds through wave dependent surface roughness, reduces sea-surface temperatures and increases precipitation; all leading to better agreement with measurements. Wave prediction is best when wave-atmosphere coupling is included, but not current-wave coupling - this is believed to be because of the “double counting” of currents, where they are included both implicitly in the model formulation and then explicitly through coupling. The final part of this study considers near-inertial oscillations, which are frequently observed in the measured current records. The model is able to accurately represent the observations, and sees significant near-inertial oscillations over most of the basin. The amplitude of the oscillations in the model is found to increase with distance from the coastline. This agrees with the mechanism of barotropic and baroclinic waves, which are generated by the no flow condition at the coast, controlling inertial oscillations.

description: Hip fractures in elderly carry a high mortality. Our objective was to test the hypothesis that plasma lactate concentration at hospital admission can be used to identify patients with a high risk for poor outcome. Hip fracture patients admitted to a university hospital in Sweden from January 2011 to August 2014 in whom a venous lactate was obtained at admission were included in this prospective observational study. Primary outcome measure was 30-d mortality and secondary outcome measure was a composite outcome of 30-d mortality and postoperative complications. Lactate concentration was evaluated as a continuous predictor using logistic regression, crude and adjusted for age, gender and American Society of Anesthesiology Physical Status (ASA PS) score. Discrimination was evaluated using receiver operating characteristics (ROC) analysis. Totally, 690 patients were included. Median age was 84 years (interquartile range [IQR] 77–90). At 30-d follow-up, mortality was 7.2%, and 45% of the patients had suffered the composite outcome. Median lactate level was 1.3 mmol/L (IQR 1.0–1.8 mmol/L). The odds ratio (OR) by each 1.0 mmol/L increase in the lactate concentration for 30-d mortality was 1.13 (95% CI 0.77–1.68) while for the composite outcome it was 1.06 (95% CI 0.85–1.3). Similar results were obtained after adjustment for age, sex and ASA PS classification for both outcomes. Area under the ROC curve for lactate as a predictor of 30-d mortality was 0.51 (95% CI 0.45–0.57). In our cohort, plasma lactate at admission does not appear to be a useful biomarker to identify high-risk patients after hip fracture.

Characterisation of the Type III Secretion System EspO effector family in enteric pathogens
Creators: name: Constantinou, Nicholas
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2013

description: Many enteric pathogens employ a type III secretion system to translocate effector proteins directly into the host cell cytoplasm, where they subvert signalling pathways of the intestinal epithelium. Once inside the cell, effector proteins may interact with host cell proteins to control various cellular processes. This enables enteric pathogens to establish their infective niche within the human host. The T3SS effectors EspO of enterohaemorrhagic Escherichia coli and Citrobacter rodentium, OspE of Shigella flexnerie and SopO of Salmonella enterica Serovar Typhimurium are known to interact with integrin-linked kinase to enhance cellular attachment to the substratum. In this project we demonstrate that the EspO family of effectors also interacts with the anti-apoptotic regulator Hax-1 and the co-chaperone DnaJB6. Employing fluorescence microscopy we found that ectopically expressed EspO resides on large cytosolic vacuoles, which stained positive for the endoplasmic reticulum marker CREB3. Moreover, ectopic expression of EspO changed the cellular distribution of endogenous Hax-1, which co-localized with the EspO vacuoles. We found that the EspO orthologs are anti apoptotic, protecting cells from apoptosis triggered by multiple inducers including staurosporine (a global kinase inhibitor), tunicamycin (induces unfolded protein response) and thapsigargin (interferes with Ca2+ homeostasis). Additionally, EspO protects HeLa cells from the apoptosis induced in EPEC infections. Hax-1 depleted HeLa cells by siRNA showed that the anti apoptotic activity of the EspO orthologs is Hax-1 dependent. Using the C. rodentium in-vivo model of EHEC / EPEC infections, we found that deletion of espO results in decreased levels of hyperplasia similar to the uninfected control. The mutant strain also showed low levels of neutrophils and CD4+T cells, whereas the EspO complemented strain showed a dramatic increase in both inflammatory cells. These results suggest new mechanisms unique to the T3SS EspO family of effectors, which might shed new insights regarding the infection strategies followed by enteric pathogens. These results suggest new mechanisms unique to the T3SS EspO family of effectors, which might shed new insights regarding the infection strategies followed by enteric pathogens.

description: We develop a model for the growth of dark matter halos and use it to study their evolved density profiles. In this model, halos are spherical and form by quiescent accretion of matter in clumps, called satellites. The halo mass as a function of redshift is given by the mass of the most massive progenitor, and is determined from Monte-Carlo realizations of the merger-history tree. Inside the halo, satellites move under the action of the gravitational force of the halo and a dynamical friction drag force. The associated equation of motion is solved numerically. The energy lost to dynamical friction is transferred to the halo in the form of kinetic energy. As they sink into the halo, satellites continually lose matter as a result of tidal stripping. The stripped matter moves inside the halo free of dynamical friction. The evolved density profiles are steeper than those obtained by assuming that, once they have been accreted onto the parent halo, satellites remain at a fixed distance from the halo center. We find that the final density profile depends mainly on the rate of infall of matter onto the halo. This, in turn, depends on the initial fluctuation field as well as on cosmology. For mass scales where the effective spectral index of the initial density field is less than -1, the model predicts a profile which can only approximately be matched by the one parameter family of curves suggested by Navarro, Frenk and White (1997). For scale-free power-spectra with initial slope $n$, the density profile within about 1% of the virial radius is $ρ\propto r^{-β}$, with $3(3+n)/(5+n)\leβ\le 3(3+n)/(4+n)$.

FINITE TEMPERATURE PHASE TRANSITION IN QCD WITH STRANGE QUARK: STUDY WITH WILSON FERMIONS ON THE LATTICE

description: The effect of the strange quark in the finite temperature phase transition of QCD is studied on the lattice. Using the one-plaquette gauge action and the Wilson quark action, the transition in the chiral limit is shown to be continuous for the case of degenerate two flavors, $N_F=2$, while it is of first order for $N_F \geq 3$. For a more realistic case of massless up and down quarks and a light strange quark, $N_F=2+1$, clear two state signals are observed both for $m_s \simeq 150$ and 400 MeV. In contrast to a previous result with staggered quarks, this suggests a first order transition in the real world. In order to see the implication of these results to the continuum limit, we started to study these issues using improved actions. First results using a RG improved gauge action combined with the standard Wilson quark is presented for the case of $N_F=2$: With this action the finite temperature transition is shown to be continuous in the chiral limit confirming the result of the standard action. Furthermore, not like the case of the standard action where lattice artifacts make the transition once very strong at intermediate values of the hopping parameter $K$ on $N_t=4$ and 6 lattices, a smooth crossover is found for the improved action when we increase $1/K-1/K_c$, in accord with a naive expectation about the fate of second order chiral transition at finite $m_q$.

description: The United States' power market is featured by the lack of judicial power at the federal level. The market thus provides a unique testing environment for the market organization structure. At the same time, the econometric modeling and forecasting of electricity market consumption become more challenging. Import and export, which generally follow simple rules in European countries, can be a result of direct market behaviors. This paper seeks to build a general model for power consumption and using the model to test several hypotheses.

Thermoelectric effects in silicon nanowires
Creators: name: Krali, Emiljana
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2013

description: The increasing demand for fossil fuels, and the need to reduce greenhouse gases, requires ‘clean’ energy sources and more efficient utilisation of energy. Thermoelectric (TE) materials provide a means towards achieving these objectives, as they convert a temperature difference [Delta]T directly into an electric potential difference [Delta]V. For practical applications, a TE material is chosen only if the dimensionless figure-of-merit ZT=S^2σT/κ ≥ 1. Where S = [Delta]V/[Delta]T, σ and κ are the Seebeck coefficient, electrical and thermal conductivity, respectively, at temperature T. Conventional bulk TE materials, such as Bi2[subscript]Te3[subscript], require a compromise between S, σ and κ. In nano-structured materials, these parameters may be varied quasi-independently, suggesting a new approach to obtain high values of ZT. In this thesis, silicon nanowire (SiNW) arrays were fabricated using a metal-assisted chemical etching process, creating SiNWs from 30 to 400 nm in diameter, a maximum length of 350 μm and aspect ratio up to 3000. A novel transient measurement method was used to characterise the temperature dependence of S in two different n-type doped SiNW arrays, ≈10^{15} cm^{-3} and ≈10^{18} cm^{-3}. In the lightly doped 35 μm long SiNWs, S=1850 μV/K at 300 K, an increase by a factor of 2.5 compared to its parent bulk Si (S_{Bulk}). Furthermore, the phonon drag component, a manifestation of electron-phonon scattering in the sample, is heavily suppressed due to surface scattering. In the moderately doped 30 μm long SiNW array, S=1480 μV/K = 2.5S_{Bulk} at 300 K. An increase in S was also observed in the n- and p-SiNWs measurements in ambient conditions. A transient method was used to characterise the temperature dependence of κ in the range 300 – 30 K. At 300 K, κ=23 W/mK = 0.19\κ_{Bulk}. Finally, the I-V characteristics of the SiNW arrays were measured and only a limited change was observed from bulk Si. Assuming σ is unchanged, in the 30 μm long SiNWs, 0.0255 ≤ ZT_{NW} ≤ 0.34. This corresponds to an increase in ZT from 32 to 55 times than the bulk Si value.

description: Recently, a rotating black hole solution was found in Vector-Tensor Galileons modified gravity that has some significant differences from the Kerr black hole solution. We study the iron line shape that is part of the reflection spectrum of accretion disks around black holes in this new black hole solution. We simulate and compare the iron lines of this solution with those of the Kerr solution to see if the technique of iron line spectroscopy can be used as a tool to test Vector-Tensor Galileons modified gravity. Our analysis shows that current X-ray facilities can, in principle, be used to test and place constraints on Vector-Tensor Galileons modified gravity in the strong coupling and ultraspinning regimes.

Simulation and theoretical perspectives of the phase behaviour of solids, liquids and gases using the Mie family of intermolecular potentials
Creators: name: Ramrattan, Nina Soraya
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2013

description: The Mie ( λr, λa) intermolecular pair potential has been suggested as an alternative to the traditional (12,6) Lennard-Jones potential for modelling real system both via simulations and theory. Its implementation as a molecular-based equation of state for the fluid phase has led to accurate derivative thermophysical properties, which cannot be obtained when potentials of fixed exponents are considered. In this work, the effect the attractive and repulsive exponents have on the solid-liquid-vapour phase behaviour of this class of potentials is studied. A novel simulation technique, involving use of a direct interfacial methodology, is presented and is used to obtain the solid-fluid phase boundaries of monomer and chain systems of Mie potentials. The methodology is used in conjunction with simulation techniques for vapour-liquid and solid-vapour coexistence to determine the global phase behaviour of a number of potentials of this family. The application of the principle of corresponding states is discussed, with the focus of obtaining a unified view of the thermodynamic equilibrium properties of the Mie potential. A three parameter corresponding states model is presented, where a third parameter α, which corresponds to the mean-field integrated energy is proposed. A unique relationship between the stable fluid range and α is presented, which can be used to predict exponent parameters of the Mie models that can be used to treat real systems. An equation of state (EOS) for the solid phase of Mie spheres and chains is presented by extending Wertheim's thermodynamic perturbation theory (TPT1) to the solid phase. The SAFT-VR framework (on which TPT1 is based) is used in conjunction with the perturbation theory of Kang et al. for treatment of simple spherical solids to develop the SAFT-VR Mie solid EOS. This EOS is used with the recently presented SAFT-VR Mie fluid EOS of Lafitte et al., to solve for coexistence and determine the global phase behaviour of a host of Mie potentials of varying range of attraction. The accuracy of the theory is validated against the simulation results of this work and following this, the limiting behaviour of Mie chain systems is determined using the theory.

description: In the first part of this letter, we analyse the supergravity dual descriptions of six-dimensional field theories realized on the worldvolume of (p,q) five-branes (OD5 theory). We show that in order for the low-energy gauge theory description to be valid the theta parameter must be rational. Irrational values of theta require a strongly coupled string description of the system at low-energy. We discuss the phase structure and deduce some properties of these theories. In the second part we construct and study the supergravity description of NS5-branes with two electric RR field, which provides a dual description of six-dimensional theories with several light open D-brane excitations.
