description: We show that the relaxation dynamics near a glass transition with continuous ergodicity breaking can be endowed with a geometric interpretation based on percolation theory. At mean-field level this approach is consistent with the mode-coupling theory (MCT) of type-A liquid-glass transitions and allows to disentangle the universal and nonuniversal contributions to MCT relaxation exponents. Scaling predictions for the time correlation function are successfully tested in the F12 schematic model and facilitated spin systems on a Bethe lattice. Our approach immediately suggests the extension of MCT scaling laws to finite spatial dimensions and yields new predictions for dynamic relaxation exponents below an upper critical dimension of 6.

description: Contract bridge occupies nowadays a position of great prestige being, together with chess, the only mind games officially recognized by the International Olympic Committee. In the present paper an innovative method for assessing the total performance of bridge- players' belonging to groups of special interest(e.g. different bridge clubs during a tournament, men and women, new and old players, etc) is introduced, which is based on principles of fuzzy logic. For this, the cohorts under assessment are represented as fuzzy subsets of a set of linguistic labels characterizing their performance and the centroid defuzzification method is used to convert the fuzzy data collected from the game to a crisp number. This new method of assessment could be used informally as a complement of the official bridge-scoring methods for statistical and other obvious reasons. Two real applications related to simultaneous tournaments with pre-dealt boards, organized by the Hellenic Bridge Federation, are also presented, illustrating the importance of our results in practice.

description: One-dimensional electrons with a linearized dispersion relation are equivalent to a collection of harmonic plasmon modes, which represent long wavelength density oscillations. An immediate consequence of this Luttinger model of one-dimensional electron systems is the absence of inelastic scattering processes responsible for the relaxation of nonequilibrium states. In a generic nonlinear Luttinger liquid plasmons may decay and thus acquire a finite lifetime. We show that equilibration of plasmons is hierarchical and has profound implications for the dynamics after a thermal quench. We also develop a thermal transport theory and compute thermal conductance of the nonlinear Luttinger liquid by treating the collision integral of plasmons in a manifestly nonperturbative way.

description: The nuclear symmetry energy coefficients of finite nuclei are extracted by using the differences between the masses of isobaric nuclei. Based on the masses of more than 2400 nuclei with $A=9-270$, we investigate the model dependence in the extraction of symmetry energy coefficient. We find that the extraction of the symmetry energy coefficients is strongly correlated with the forms of the Coulomb energy and the mass dependence of the symmetry energy coefficient adopted. The values of the extracted symmetry energy coefficients increase by about 2 MeV for heavy nuclei when the Coulomb correction term is involved. We obtain the bulk symmetry energy coefficient $S_0=28.26\pm1.3$ MeV and the surface-to-volume ratio $κ=1.26\pm 0.25 $ MeV if assuming the mass dependence of symmetry energy coefficient $a_{\rm sym}(A)=S_0(1-κ/A^{1/3})$, and $S_0=32.80\pm1.7$ MeV, $κ=2.82\pm0.57$ MeV when $a_{\rm sym}(A)=S_0 (1+κ/A^{1/3})^{-1}$ is adopted.

title: Predicting Successful Chaperoning of Fabry Disease Mutants via Computation
Creators: name: Patel, Priyank
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2019

description: Fabry disease is an inherited X-linked recessive disorder caused by mutations in the galactosidase alpha (GLA) gene, leading to deficiencies in α-galactosidase A (α-GAL) enzyme production. α-GAL, a lysosomal glycosidase, catalyzes the removal of a terminal α-galactose; however, loss of α-GAL activity leads to accumulation of globotriaosylceramide (an endogenous substrate) and the eventual onset of the disease. Approved treatments for Fabry disease include enzyme replacement therapy and pharmacological chaperone therapy. In the latter treatment, 1-deoxygalactonojirimycin (DGJ), a pharmacological chaperone, is administered to Fabry disease patients, leading to increased enzymatic activity. The DGJ iminosugar acts as a competitive inhibitor of α-GAL, and upon addition at sub-inhibitory concentrations, the α-GAL activity in the cell increases. At pH 7.5, the DGJ binds and stabilizes both wild type and mutant α-GAL and can thus drive the folding of the α-GAL protein (Guce 2011). DGJ has been clinically approved to treat a subset of the more than 900 known mutations in the GLA gene. These approvals come from the chaperone activity data published by Amicus Therapeutics (Benjamin 2017). However, these assays cost money, time, and effort to perform, and novel mutations are discovered annually. Using molecular dynamics energy calculations in the Schrödinger software package, we developed a model to predict successful chaperoning of the mutants. Overall, the results are directly applicable to Fabry disease, but could also be applied to the much larger family of protein folding diseases, including Alzheimer's, Parkinson's and Huntington's diseases.

description: Attractive interaction between fermions can lead to pairing and superfluidity in an optical lattice. In contrast to the `continuum', on a lattice the trap induced density variation can generate a non monotonic profile of the pairing amplitude, and completely modify the spectral signatures of any possible pseudogap phase. Using a tool that fully captures the inhomogeneity and strong thermal fluctuations, we demonstrate how the crucial radio frequency signatures of pairing are `inverted' in a trapped attractive fermion lattice compared to the traditional continuum case. These features would be central in interpreting any spectroscopic hint of fermion pairing and superfluidity.

Metaphorically, it is in the shape of a palimpsest. The process of writing it consists of erasures and repetitions, similar to the way I work in the studio, and very similar to the way I live my everyday life. erase, repeat. Layers in both content and structure sit on top of each other, overlapping, hiding and revealing, creating a new meaning different from their individual purposes. These layers of my thesis are my attempts to narrate stories, reflections and thoughts about my artistic practice. They are arranged nomadically, similar to the way I organize my objects. Similar to the way I was raised. They (every section, every paragraph) do not have one title but instead several keywords, as I find giving titles a political action towards the text that limits, groups and simplifies. As indications of pauses, I have three Farsi characters. They are the marks of my literal movement through the text, from stories to theories, from theories to my practice, from my practice to stories, every time, no matter how many moves, I go back to the stories.

description: Proton transport (PT) in bulk liquid water and within a thin water-filled carbon nanotube has been examined with ab initio pathintegral molecular dynamics (PIMD). Barrierless proton transfer is observed in each case when quantum nuclear effects (QNEs) are accounted for. The key difference between the two systems is that in the nanotube facile PT is facilitated by a favorable prealignment of water molecules, whereas in bulk liquid water solvent reorganization is required prior to PT. Configurations where the quantum excess proton is delocalized over several adjacent water molecules along with continuous interconversion between different hydration states reveals that, as in liquid water, the hydrated proton under confinement is best described as a fluxional defect, rather than any individual idealized hydration state such as Zundel, Eigen, or the so-called linear H7O3+ complex along the water chain. These findings highlight the importance of QNEs in intermediate strength hydrogen bonds (HBs) and explain why H+ diffusion through nanochannels is impeded much less than other cations.

description: Mercury, due to its close location to the Sun, is surrounded by an environment whose conditions may be considered as "extreme" in the entire Solar System. Both solar wind and radiation are stronger with respect to other Solar System bodies, so that their interactions with the planet cause high emission of material from its surface. Moreover, the meteoritic precipitation plays a significant role in surface emission processes. This emitted material is partially lost in space. Although under the present conditions the surface particles loss rate does not seem to be able to produce significant erosion of the planetary mass and volume, the long-term effects over billions of years should be carefully considered to properly understand the evolution of the planet. In the early stages, under even more extreme conditions, some of these processes were much more effective in removing material from the planet's surface. This study attempts to provide a rough estimation of the material loss rate as a function of time, in order to evaluate whether and how this environmental effect can be applied to understand the Hermean surface evolution. We show that the most potentially effective Sun-induced erosion process in early times is a combination of ion sputtering, photon stimulated desorption and enhanced diffusion, which could have caused the loss of a surface layer down to a depth of 20 m, as well as a relevant Na depletion.

title: Relationships Between Personality Type and Cognitive Ability in Marmoset Monkeys (Callithrix jacchus)
Creators: name: Marciano , Zachary
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2020

description: Personality refers to multiple traits that are thought to be stable over time and across situations. It is recognized that personality has a neural basis and is associated with health outcomes. Whether personality is also associated with cognitive ability, however, is still a matter of intense debate. One way to examine these potential relationships is to use a nonhuman primate model for which complexities present in humans can be minimized. Recent research into the varying personality types of marmoset monkeys suggests that there are predominantly three to five core primary domains that most marmosets and other primates can be categorized into, such as dominance, sociability, and neuroticism. The aim of the proposed study was to categorize a small colony of marmosets into respective personality domains, and to examine correlations between the monkeys’ personalities and their cognitive ability. This study was be conducted on 27 marmoset monkeys (14 male, 13 female) housed in the Lacreuse lab at the University of Massachusetts Amherst. A personality survey based on Koski (2015) containing 55 personality traits was utilized by 8 human judges, all of whom have been working with these monkeys daily for at least one year. Each judge rated each individual monkey on each individual trait on a 1 to 7-point scale; 1 indicating total absence of a trait and 7 indicating extreme presence of a trait. Once the survey data was compiled, a principal component analysis (PCA) was conducted to condense the myriad of ratings into smaller distinguishable personality domains. Three personality types were identified in this population, consistent with other non-human primate species. An ICC(2) was performed to ensure the interrater reliabilities of the 8 judges were consistent enough to be considered. Lastly, a linear regression was conducted to reveal possible correlations between the observed personality domains and cognitive performance achieved in a reversal learning task. The results of this experiment showed no statistically significant relationships between any of the three personality domains: Assertiveness, Neuroticism, and Inquisitiveness with the reversal learning cognitive scores. Although these findings suggest that personality and cognitive flexibility are independent in marmosets, we cannot rule out that personality may influence other cognitive domains. Additional studies are needed to examine this possibility.

Casimir interaction between spheres in $\boldsymbol{(D+1)}$-dimensional Minkowski spacetime

Year: 2014

description: We consider the Casimir interaction between two spheres in $(D+1)$-dimensional Minkowski spacetime due to the vacuum fluctuations of scalar fields. We consider combinations of Dirichlet and Neumann boundary conditions. The TGTG formula of the Casimir interaction energy is derived. The computations of the T matrices of the two spheres are straightforward. To compute the two G matrices, known as translation matrices, which relate the hyper-spherical waves in two spherical coordinate frames differ by a translation, we generalize the operator approach employed in [IEEE Trans. Antennas Propag. \textbf{36}, 1078 (1988)]. The result is expressed in terms of an integral over Gegenbauer polynomials. Using our expression for the Casimir interaction energy, we derive the large separation and small separation asymptotic expansions of the Casimir interaction energy. In the large separation regime, we find that the Casimir interaction energy is of order $L^{-2D+3}$, $L^{-2D+1}$ and $L^{-2D-1}$ respectively for Dirichlet-Dirichlet, Dirichlet-Neumann and Neumann-Neumann boundary conditions, where $L$ is the center-to-center distance of the two spheres. In the small separation regime, we confirm that the leading term of the Casimir interaction agrees with the proximity force approximation, which is of order $d^{-\frac{D+1}{2}}$, where $d$ is the distance between the two spheres. Another main result of this work is the analytic computations of the next-to-leading order term in the small separation asymptotic expansion. This term is computed using careful order analysis as well as perturbation method. We find that when $D$ is large, the ratio of the next-to-leading order term to the leading order term is linear in $D$, indicating a larger correction at higher dimensions.

description: In this study, insecticidal efficacy of different local diatomaceous earth (DE) deposits obtained Central Anatolian Region in Turkey and commercial DE deposit (German origin), Silicosec® were evaluated against substantial pest on stored grain as Tribolium confusum du Val (Coleoptera: Tenebrionidae) at five different concentrations of 100, 300, 500, 900 and 1500 ppm on stored paddy. Mortality of the exposed adults was assessed after 7, 14 and 21 days of exposure. Also progeny productions were assessed after 65 days The tests were carried out at 25±1 oC temperature, 55±5% R.H. under dark conditions. The most effective DE in a short time were assessed AG2N-1 which caused 97% mortality of T. confusum adults at 1500 ppm concentration after 7 days of exposure in paddy. Complete mortality of T. confusum adults was recorded on AG2N-1 at 900 ppm for 14 days and treatments of AG2N-1, BGN-1, CBN-1 for 21 days at 500, 900 and 1500 ppm respectively whereas 87% mortality rate was determined for 21 days exposure of Silicosec® at the highest concentrations on paddy. In conclusion, this study indicated that Turkish DE deposits, AG2N-1, BGN-1 and CBN-1 had high insecticidal efficacy in comparison with the commercial Silicosec® and would have potential to be used against insects in the pest management of stored paddy.

Common 0.1 bar Tropopause in Thick Atmospheres Set by Pressure-Dependent Infrared Transparency

description: A minimum atmospheric temperature, or tropopause, occurs at a pressure of around 0.1 bar in the atmospheres of Earth, Titan, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus and Neptune, despite great differences in atmospheric composition, gravity, internal heat and sunlight. In all these bodies, the tropopause separates a stratosphere with a temperature profile that is controlled by the absorption of shortwave solar radiation, from a region below characterised by convection, weather, and clouds. However, it is not obvious why the tropopause occurs at the specific pressure near 0.1 bar. Here we use a physically-based model to demonstrate that, at atmospheric pressures lower than 0.1 bar, transparency to thermal radiation allows shortwave heating to dominate, creating a stratosphere. At higher pressures, atmospheres become opaque to thermal radiation, causing temperatures to increase with depth and convection to ensue. A common dependence of infrared opacity on pressure, arising from the shared physics of molecular absorption, sets the 0.1 bar tropopause. We hypothesize that a tropopause at a pressure of approximately 0.1 bar is characteristic of many thick atmospheres, including exoplanets and exomoons in our galaxy and beyond. Judicious use of this rule could help constrain the atmospheric structure, and thus the surface environments and habitability, of exoplanets.

title: UTILIZATION OF EMULSION CHEMISTRIES FOR DELIVERY AND ANTIVIRAL APPLICATION OF CARVACROL
Creators: name: Hsu, Yuan-Hao
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2019

description: Human norovirus (HuNoVs) are the most common enteric pathogen around the world that cause ~50% of foodborne illness of disease outbreaks annually. HuNoVs are the member of the Caliciviridae family, which consist of small (38 nm), unenveloped, single stranded RNA (ssRNA) viruses. Norovirus are divided into 5 genogroup (GI, GII, GIII, GIV, GV, GVI and GVII). The GI, GII, and GIV cause human illness, in addition, GII.4 genotype cause the most human disease. Due to HuNoVs are difficult cultured in vitro, the cultivable HuNoVs surrogates have been widely studied. Recently, some studies have been conducted with HuNoVs surrogates, for example bacteriophage MS2. MS2 is conservative surrogate for nonenveloped viruses which there is a close relationship to the behavior of HuNoVs, thus we can examine the infection control measures for HuNoVs. Despite plenty of treatment method been done on testing antiviral effect on bacteriophage MS2, for example UV inactivation, steam ultrasound and antimicrobial etc., plant-based nanoemulsion treatment has yet to be explored. Carvacrol is a major component of oregano essential oil and is responsible for their antimicrobial activity on the growth of various microorganism. In this study, carvacrol nanoemulsions were formed by using the spontaneous emulsification for testing the nanoemulsion stability (14 days shelf life study on its droplet size and particle charge) and antimicrobial activity.
In carvacrol nanoemulsion 14 days shelf life test, the droplet size and particle charge stay stable at three different treatment environments (4°C, 20°C and 37°C). The results proved that nanoemulsion (was formed with surfactant agents and medium-chain triglycerides) is stable system that gives consistent droplet size and charge. Although, the low antimicrobial activity was investigated at carvacrol nanoemulsion, the strong antimicrobial effects have been found when carvacrol or carvacrol combined with ionic surfactant of treatment on MS2 and Escherichia coli. Taken together, in the wake of growing consumer demand for different “natural” products in a number of industries, our study broadly informs the development and study of functionalized carvacrol active compound that can not only provide beneficial health for human but can also examine antimicrobial efficacy of control measures for public health.

description: We have developed a system for contactless measurement of nonlinear conductivity in the radio-frequency band, and over a wide temperature range. A non-resonant circuit is used to electrically excite the sample, and the induced signal is detected by a resonant circuit whose natural frequency matches higher harmonics of the excitation. A simple modification of the probe allows non-resonant detection suitable for stronger signals. Two measurement procedures are proposed that allow significant excitation power variation, up to 150 W. The apparatus has been validated trough the measurement of the nonlinear response at the superconducting transition of a high-Tc superconductor, and the nematic transition of an iron pnictide.

description: We report the detection of eight vibronic bands of C$_3$, seven of which have been hitherto unobserved in astrophysical objects, in the translucent cloud towards HD~169454. Four of these bands are also found towards two additional objects: HD~73882 and HD~154368. Very high signal-to-noise ratio ($\sim$1000 and higher) and high resolving power ($R=80,000$) UVES-VLT spectra (Paranal, Chile) allow for detecting novel spectral features of C$_3$, even revealing weak perturbed features in the strongest bands. The work presented here provides the most complete spectroscopic survey of the so far largest carbon chain detected in translucent interstellar clouds. High-quality laboratory spectra of C$_3$ are measured using cavity ring-down absorption spectroscopy in a supersonically expanding hydrocarbon plasma, to support the analysis of the identified bands towards HD~169454. A column density of N(C$_3$) = $(6.6 \pm 0.2) \times 10^{12}$ cm$^{-2}$ is inferred and the excitation of the molecule exhibits two temperature components; $T_{exc}= 22 \pm 1$ K for the low-$J$ states and $T_{exc}= 187 \pm 25$ K for the high-$J$ tail. The rotational excitation of C$_3$ is reasonably well explained by models involving a mechanism including inelastic collisions, formation and destruction of the molecule, and radiative pumping in the far-infrared. These models yield gas kinetic temperatures comparable to those found for $T_{exc}$. The assignment of spectral features in the UV-blue range 3793-4054 Å may be of relevance for future studies aiming at unravelling spectra to identify interstellar molecules associated with the diffuse interstellar bands (DIBs).

description: The hybrid eclipse of November 3rd, 2013 was observed as partial with a magnitude equal to 0.126 from Badajoz (38^\circ 53' N, 6^\circ 58' W). The evolution of the Total Ozone Column (TOC) values during 4 hours was monitored using a Solar Light Microtops-II manual sun-photometer. Before the eclipse, TOC remained invariable ~280 Dobson Units (DU) for one hour and a half. Once the eclipse was started, a clear decrease in TOC occurred. After the eclipse maximum (with TOC = 273 DU), a rapid TOC recovery was observed. When the eclipse was over, TOC came back to values ~280 DU.

description: We study the twist-3 three-gluon contribution to the single spin asymmetry in the light-hadron production in pp collision in the framework of the collinear factorization. We derive the corresponding cross section formula in the leading order with respect to the QCD coupling constant. We also present a numerical calculation of the asymmetry at the RHIC energy, using a model for the three-gluon correlation functions suggested by the asymmetry observed in the $D$-meson production at RHIC.

description: Enigmatic frog ilia were recovered from two geographically and temporally disparate fossil sites in South Africa, namely the Early Pliocene (5.1 Ma) fossil site of Langebaanweg (south-western Cape), and Cooper’s Cave D (Northern province), which dates to around 1.38 Ma. The fossil ilia appear to represent an extinct anuran genus that subsisted in southern Africa over several million years, had a previously undocumented mode of locomotion, and possibly exceptional jumping ability. Relative to extant anurans, the fossil ilia show a unique suite of characteristics pertaining to the acetabulum, dorsal protuberance, ventral ridge of the shaft, and dorsal crest; features which would have facilitated and stabilised jumping.

description: We elaborate the model of accretion disks of young stars with the fossil large-scale magnetic field in the frame of Shakura and Sunyaev approximation. Equations of the MHD model include Shakura and Sunyaev equations, induction equation and equations of ionization balance. Magnetic field is determined taking into account ohmic diffusion, magnetic ambipolar diffusion and buoyancy. Ionization fraction is calculated considering ionization by cosmic rays and X-rays, thermal ionization, radiative recombinations and recombinations on the dust grains. Analytical solution and numerical investigations show that the magnetic field is coupled to the gas in the case of radiative recombinations. Magnetic field is quasi-azimuthal close to accretion disk inner boundary and quasi-radial in the outer regions. Magnetic field is quasi-poloidal in the dusty "dead" zones with low ionization degree, where ohmic diffusion is efficient. Magnetic ambipolar diffusion reduces vertical magnetic field in 10 times comparing to the frozen-in field in this region. Magnetic field is quasi-azimuthal close to the outer boundary of accretion disks for standard ionization rates and dust grain size a_d=0.1 micrometers. In the case of large dust grains (a_d > 0.1 micrometers) or enhanced ionization rates, the magnetic field is quasi-radial in the outer regions. It is shown that the inner boundary of dusty "dead" zone is placed at r=(0.1-0.6) AU for accretion disks of stars with M=(0.5-2) M_{\odot}. Outer boundary of "dead" zone is placed at r=(3-21) AU and it is determined by magnetic ambipolar diffusion. Mass of solid material in the "dead" zone is more than 3 M_{\oplus} for stars with M \geq 1 M_{\odot}.

The Eilenberg-Mac Lane cohomology of an inverse monoid and the maximum group image

Subjects: subject: Group Theory (math.GR)

description: The aim of this paper is to see at what extent homological properties of an inverse monoid are determined from those of its maximum group image. We provide several evidences that the maximum group image contains vital homological information which can be used to study certain properties of the monoid itself. For instance, we prove that an inverse monoid $S$ is of type $FP_{\infty}$, if and only if it contains a minimal idempotent and its maximum group image is of the same type. Regarding cohomological dimensions, we show that the cohomological dimension of a free Clifford monoid and that of its maximum group image agree and are equal to one. Also we define the index of a full submonoid of an inverse monoid in terms of their maximum group images and show that if the index is finite then, the monoid is of type $\text{FP}_{\infty}$ if and only if its submonoid is of the same type.
Systematics of the Thirteen-scaled Green Snake Philothamnus carinatus (Squamata: Colubridae), with the description of a cryptic new species from Central and East Africa

description: Recent molecular phylogenies of African Green Snakes suggested the geographically widespread species Philothamnus carinatus includes at least two distinct lineages. We utilised an integrative taxonomic approach with morphological and genetic data to reconcile the taxonomic status of these cryptic lineages, including the recently described taxon P. brunneus from West Africa. We sequenced three mitochondrial (16S, cyt b and ND4) and two nuclear (c-mos and RAG1) genes from several Central African populations of P. carinatus and combined our data with other closely related species to infer a maximum likelihood phylogenetic tree with IQ-TREE. Our results are consistent with previous studies that showed P. cf. carinatus populations from Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) represent a cryptic lineage that is distinct from P. carinatus sensu stricto in Cameroon, Central African Republic, Equatorial Guinea (including Bioko Island), Gabon, eastern Nigeria, Republic of the Congo, and extreme western DRC. In our preferred tree, P. brunneus (limited to 16S molecular data) was recovered as a relatively long branch in a moderately supported clade with P. carinatus sensu stricto, whereas P. cf. carinatus populations from northern Angola, most of DRC, and East Africa (Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania and Uganda) were described as a new species. A possible hybrid population between south-eastern Cameroon and north-western DRC is consistent with an increasing body of evidence suggesting the Ubangi River might represent a hybrid zone area.
title: A Video-Based System for Emergency Preparedness and Recovery
Creators: name: Yin, Juechen
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2019

description: We present a video-based system designed to enhance the efficiency of emergency preparedness and recovery. Our system includes two tools, one or emergency preparedness, and the other for emergency recovery.
In our emergency preparedness tool, we 1) capture videos from the physical environment (e.g., University Campus, Knowles Engineering Building, North Station Subway Station), 2) generate an immersive virtual environment using these videos, 3) provide exploration and navigation mode in the virtual environment, and 4) allow users to make annotations of the environment and review these created annotations. By using this virtual environment, emergency personnel can familiarize themselves with the environment before their actual training in the physical setting. This tool can enhance the training experience of emergency responders as well as improve the training outcomes.
Our emergency recovery tool includes two parts: 1) an Android application which captures the videos in the disaster site, and 2) a server that stores all these videos and provides visual analytics support. The recorded videos (both in indoor and outdoor settings), which include location and orientation information, are uploaded to the server that supports spatial queries. We developed tools for the investigators to review these videos, e.g., review videos in specific areas of interest.
To test our tools, we select both outdoor and indoor environments. The results show that our tool works well in these situations.

description: We report the fabrication and performance of all-metallic three-terminal devices with tantalum diselenide thin-film conducting channels. For this proof-of-concept demonstration, the layers of 2H-TaSe2 were exfoliated mechanically from single crystals grown by the chemical vapor transport method. Devices with nanometer-scale thicknesses exhibit strongly non-linear current-voltage characteristics, unusual optical response, and electrical gating at room temperature. We have found that the drain-source current in thin-film 2H-TaSe2-Ti/Au devices reproducibly shows an abrupt transition from a highly resistive to a conductive state, with the threshold tunable via the gate voltage. Such current-voltage characteristics can be used in principle for implementing radiation-hard all-metallic logic circuits. These results may open new application space for thin films of van der Waals materials.

description: Alexander von Humboldt (1769 – 1859) was a versatile scholar, who had a holistic approach to nature: he could be defined an explorer of the natural world. Among his interests, geology played an important role. Humboldt visited Liguria twice, aiming at studying the rocks, and in particular the outcrops of central Liguria which, at the beginning of the 19th century, were along the only vehicular road connecting Genova with the Po plain. Here he observed many different and contrasting lithologies, either of ophiolitic or carbonatic nature, and gave proof of his great analytical and synthesis skills. The geologic area he visited, known in literature as the “Sestri-Voltaggio Zone”, has long been the object of scientific debate because it has been considered a possible limit between the Alps and the Apennines.
