description: Double slit interference is explained with the aid of what we call "21stcentury classical physics". We model a particle as an oscillator ("bouncer") in a thermal context, which is given by some assumed "zero-point" field of the vacuum. In this way, the quantum is understood as an emergent system, i.e., a steady-state system maintained by a constant throughput of (vacuum) energy. To account for the particle's thermal environment, we introduce a "path excitation field", which derives from the thermodynamics of the zero-point vacuum and which represents all possible paths a particle can take via thermal path fluctuations. The intensity distribution on a screen behind a double slit is calculated, as well as the corresponding trajectories and the probability density current. Further, particular features of the relative phase are shown to be responsible for nonlocal effects not only in ordinary quantum theory, but also in our classical approach.

UV photolysis, organic molecules in young disks, and the origin of meteoritic amino acids

description: The origin of complex organic molecules such as amino acids and their precursors found in meteorites and comets is unknown. Previous studies have accounted for the complex organic inventory of the Solar System by aqueous chemistry on warm meteoritic parent bodies, or by accretion of organics formed in the interstellar medium. This paper proposes a third possibility: that complex organics were created in situ by ultraviolet light from nearby O/B stars irradiating ices already in the Sun's protoplanetary disk. If the Sun was born in a dense cluster near UV-bright stars, the flux hitting the disk from external stars could be many orders of magnitude higher than that from the Sun alone. Such photolysis of ices in the laboratory can rapidly produce amino acid precursors and other complex organic molecules. I present a simple model coupling grain growth and UV exposure in a young circumstellar disk. It is shown that the production may be sufficient to create the Solar System's entire complex organic inventory within 10^6 years. Subsequent aqueous alteration on meteoritic parent bodies is not ruled out.

description: Multiplicative error models (MEM) became a standard tool for modeling conditional durations of intraday transactions, realized volatilities and trading volumes. The parametric estimation of the corresponding multivariate model, the so-called vector MEM (VMEM), requires a specification of the joint error term distribution, which is due to the lack of multivariate distribution functions on Rd + defined via a copula. Maximum likelihood estimation is based on the assumption of constant copula parameters and therefore, leads to invalid inference, if the dependence exhibits time variations or structural breaks. Hence, we suggest to test for time-varying dependence by calibrating a time-varying copula model and to reestimate the VMEM based on identified intervals of homogenous dependence. This paper summarizes the important aspects of (V)MEM, its estimation and a sequential test for changes in the dependence structure. The techniques are applied in an empirical example.

description: We have searched for young star-forming regions around the merger remnant NGC 2782. By using GALEX FUV and NUV imaging and HI data we found seven UV sources, located at distances greater than 26 kpc from the center of NGC 2782, and coinciding with its western HI tidal tail. These regions were resolved in several smaller systems when Gemini/GMOS r-band images were used. We compared the observed colors to stellar population synthesis models and we found that these objects have ages of ~1 to 11 Myr and masses ranging from 10^3.9 to 10^4.6 Msun. By using Gemini/GMOS spectroscopic data we confirm memberships and derive high metallicities for three of the young regions in the tail (12+log(O/H)=8.74\pm0.20, 8.81\pm0.20 and 8.78\pm0.20). These metallicities are similar to the value presented by the nuclear region of NGC 2782 and also similar to the value presented for an object located close to the main body of NGC 2782. The high metallicities measured for the star-forming regions in the gaseous tidal tail of NGC 2782 could be explained if they were formed out of highly enriched gas which was once expelled from the center of the merging galaxies when the system collided. An additional possibility is that the tail has been a nursery of a few generations of young stellar systems which ultimately polluted this medium with metals, further enriching the already pre-enriched gas ejected to the tail when the galaxies collided.

description: We present TreeCol, a new and efficient tree-based scheme to calculate column densities in numerical simulations. Knowing the column density in any direction at any location in space is a prerequisite for modelling the propagation of radiation through the computational domain. TreeCol therefore forms the basis for a fast, approximate method for modelling the attenuation of radiation within large numerical simulations. It constructs a HEALPix sphere at any desired location and accumulates the column density by walking the tree and by adding up the contributions from all tree nodes whose line of sight contributes to the pixel under consideration. In particular when combined with widely-used tree-based gravity solvers the new scheme requires little additional computational cost. In a simulation with $N$ resolution elements, the computational cost of TreeCol scales as $N \log N$, instead of the $N^{5/3}$ scaling of most other radiative transfer schemes. TreeCol is naturally adaptable to arbitrary density distributions and is easy to implement and to parallelize. We discuss its accuracy and performance characteristics for the examples of a spherical protostellar core and for the turbulent interstellar medium. We find that the column density estimates provided by TreeCol are on average accurate to better than 10 percent. In another application, we compute the dust temperatures for solar neighborhood conditions and compare with the result of a full-fledged Monte Carlo radiation-transfer calculation. We find that both methods give very similar answers. We conclude that TreeCol provides a fast, easy to use, and sufficiently accurate method of calculating column densities that comes with little additional computational cost when combined with an existing tree-based gravity solver.

description: The thermal activation of magnetization reversal in magnetic nanoparticles is controlled by the anisotropy-energy barrier. Using perturbation theory, exact diagonalization and stability analysis of the ferromagnetic spin-s Heisenberg model with coupling or single-site anisotropy, we study the effects of quantum fluctuations on the height of the energy barrier. Opposed to the classical case, there is no critical anisotropy strength discriminating between reversal via coherent rotation and via nucleation/domain-wall propagation. Quantum fluctuations are seen to lower the barrier depending on the anisotropy strength, dimensionality and system size and shape. In the weak-anisotropy limit, a macrospin model is shown to emerge as the effective low-energy theory where the microscopic spins are tightly aligned due to the ferromagnetic exchange. The calculation provides explicit expressions for the anisotropy parameter of the effective macrospin. We find a reduction of the anisotropy-energy barrier as compared to the classical high spin-s limit.

The stability to instability transition in the structure of large scale networks

description: We examine phase transitions between the easy, hard, and the unsolvable phases when attempting to identify structure in large complex networks (community detection) in the presence of disorder induced by network noise (spurious links that obscure structure), heat bath temperature $T$, and system size $N$. When present, transitions at low temperature or low noise correspond to entropy driven (or "order by disorder") annealing effects wherein stability may initially increase as temperature or noise is increased before becoming unsolvable at sufficiently high temperature or noise. Additional transitions between contending viable solutions (such as those at different natural scales) are also possible. When analyzing community structure via a dynamical approach, "chaotic-type" transitions were previously identified [Phil. Mag. {\bf 92} 406 (2012)]. The correspondence between the spin-glass-type complexity transitions and transitions into chaos in dynamical analogs might extend to other hard computational problems. In this work, we examine large networks that have a large number of communities. We infer that large systems at a constant ratio of $q$ to the number of nodes $N$ asymptotically tend toward insolvability in the limit of large $N$ for any positive $T$. The asymptotic behavior of temperatures below which structure identification might be possible, $T_\times =O[1/\log q]$, decreases slowly, so for practical system sizes, there remains an accessible, and generally easy, global solvable phase at low temperature. We further employ multivariate Tutte polynomials to show that increasing $q$ emulates increasing $T$ for a general Potts model, leading to a similar stability region at low $T$. Given the relation between Tutte and Jones polynomials, our results further suggest a link between the above complexity transitions and transitions associated with random knots.

description: Background: Accurate and timely detection of public health events of international concern is necessary to help support risk assessment and response and save lives. Novel event-based methods that use the World Wide Web as a signal source offer potential to extend health surveillance into areas where traditional indicator networks are lacking. In this paper we address the issue of systematically evaluating online health news to support automatic alerting using daily disease-country counts text mined from real world data using BioCaster. For 18 data sets produced by BioCaster, we compare 5 aberration detection algorithms (EARS C2, C3, W2, F-statistic and EWMA) for performance against expert moderated ProMED-mail postings. Results: We report sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value (PPV), negative predictive value (NPV), mean alerts/100 days and F1, at 95% confidence interval (CI) for 287 ProMED-mail postings on 18 outbreaks across 14 countries over a 366 day period. Results indicate that W2 had the best F1 with a slight benefit for day of week effect over C2. In drill down analysis we indicate issues arising from the granular choice of country-level modeling, sudden drops in reporting due to day of week effects and reporting bias. Automatic alerting has been implemented in BioCaster available from http://born.nii.ac.jp. Conclusions: Online health news alerts have the potential to enhance manual analytical methods by increasing throughput, timeliness and detection rates. Systematic evaluation of health news aberrations is necessary to push forward our understanding of the complex relationship between news report volumes and case numbers and to select the best performing features and algorithms.

description: In this paper, we have evaluated various methods of time-frequency-selective fading channels estimation in OFDM system and some of them improved under time varying conditions. So, these different techniques will be studied through different algorithms and for different schemes of modulations (16 QAM, BPSK, QPSK, ...). Channel estimation gathers different schemes and algorithms, some of them are dedicated for slowly time varying (such as block type arrangement insertion, Bayesian Cramer-Rao Bound, Kalman estimator, Subspace estimator, ...) whereas the others concern highly time varying channels (comb type insertion, ...). There are others methods that are just suitable for stationary channels like blind or semi blind estimators. For this aim, diverse algorithms were used for these schemes such as Least Squares estimator LS, Least Minimum Squares LMS, Minimum Mean-Square-Error MMSE, Linear Minimum Mean-Square-Error LMMSE, Maximum Likelihood ML, ... to refine estimators shown previously.

Understanding the Anti-inflammatory Effect of C-peptide in Kidney

Publisher: name: University of Leicester
Year: 2021
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Patients with diabetes are at high risk of developing long-term complications, including diabetic kidney disease. Recent data suggest that type 1 diabetes might be a dual hormone deficiency disease in which secretion of insulin and C-peptide is insufficient. Insulin supplementation is provided as part of treatment regimes, however, C-peptide depletion remains untreated. In this study, the potential beneficial effect of C-peptide replacement on renal cell signalling and biochemical markers of inflammation was investigated. Using cultured human renal cells (HEK-293A and TERT/1), incubation with 0.3 to 10nM C-peptide resulted in stimulatory effects on the key intracellular signalling pathway to MAP kinase (ERK1/2).This effect was further investigated in presence of 2.5mM inorganic phosphate (Pi), a plasma Pi concentration that occurs in in rodents but not in healthy humans. Both Pi and C-peptide activated ERK1/2 in TERT/1 cells, and a positive interaction (synergism) was found between the effects of Pi and C-peptide. This response to Pi occurred without detectable change in the intracellular Pi concentration and was mimicked by non-metabolisable Pi analogues orthovanadate, phosphite and hypophosphite, consistent with a recent report of sensing of extracellular Pi by SLC20 transporter proteins (PiT1 and PiT2) in the plasma membrane which then signal to ERK1/2. C-peptide (at a physiologically relevant concentration of 3nM) also decreased mRNA expression of Pi transporters PiT2 and XPR1 and the activity of total Na+-linked Pi influx by 30% in TERT/1 cells, suggesting that C-peptide may contribute to regulation of renal Pi transport.The proposed renoprotective effect of C-peptide was investigated in vivo. Streptozotocin-induced diabetes in rats resulted in upregulation of transforming growth factor-β and Type IV collagen. Administration of C-peptide prevented diabetes-induced overexpression of TGF-β and Col-IV mRNA, and TGF-β protein in kidney tissue. C-peptide administration also resulted in down-regulation of inflammatory marker proteins; monocyte chemo-attractant protein-1, inter-cellular adhesion molecule-1, vascular cell adhesion molecule-1, vascular endothelial growth factor-A, RANTES, tumour necrosis factor-α and interleukin-1β. Despite the older views that portrayed C-peptide as an inert molecule with no bioactivity, the data presented in this study, add to growing evidence supporting an active role for C-peptide in the diabetic milieu, and suggest that (at least in vitro) the response to C-peptide may be enhanced at the elevated extracellular Pi concentration.

description: This paper is concerned with the kinetic treatment of quasi-stationary axisymmetric collisionless accretion disc plasmas. The conditions of validity of the kinetic description for non-relativistic magnetized and gravitationally-bound plasmas of this type are discussed. A classification of the possible collisionless plasma regimes which can arise in these systems is proposed, which can apply to accretion discs around both stellar-mass compact objects and galactic-center black holes. Two different classifications are determined, which are referred to respectively as energy-based and magnetic field-based classifications. Different regimes are pointed out for each plasma species, depending both on the relative magnitudes of kinetic and potential energies and the magnitude of the magnetic field. It is shown that in all cases, there can be quasi-stationary Maxwellian-like solutions of the Vlasov equation. The perturbative approach outlined here permits unique analytical determination of the functional form for the distribution function consistent, in each kinetic regime, with the explicit inclusion of finite Larmor radius-diamagnetic and/or energy-correction effects.

Achieving a vanishing SNR-gap to exact lattice decoding at a subexponential complexity

description: The work identifies the first lattice decoding solution that achieves, in the general outage-limited MIMO setting and in the high-rate and high-SNR limit, both a vanishing gap to the error-performance of the (DMT optimal) exact solution of preprocessed lattice decoding, as well as a computational complexity that is subexponential in the number of codeword bits. The proposed solution employs lattice reduction (LR)-aided regularized (lattice) sphere decoding and proper timeout policies. These performance and complexity guarantees hold for most MIMO scenarios, all reasonable fading statistics, all channel dimensions and all full-rate lattice codes. In sharp contrast to the above manageable complexity, the complexity of other standard preprocessed lattice decoding solutions is shown here to be extremely high. Specifically the work is first to quantify the complexity of these lattice (sphere) decoding solutions and to prove the surprising result that the complexity required to achieve a certain rate-reliability performance, is exponential in the lattice dimensionality and in the number of codeword bits, and it in fact matches, in common scenarios, the complexity of ML-based solutions. Through this sharp contrast, the work was able to, for the first time, rigorously quantify the pivotal role of lattice reduction as a special complexity reducing ingredient. Finally the work analytically refines transceiver DMT analysis which generally fails to address potentially massive gaps between theory and practice. Instead the adopted vanishing gap condition guarantees that the decoder's error curve is arbitrarily close, given a sufficiently high SNR, to the optimal error curve of exact solutions, which is a much stronger condition than DMT optimality which only guarantees an error gap that is subpolynomial in SNR, and can thus be unbounded and generally unacceptable in practical settings.

description: To each partition function of cohomological field theory one can associate an Hamiltonian integrable hierarchy of topological type. The Givental group acts on such partition functions and consequently on the associated integrable hierarchies. We consider the Hirota and Lax formulations of the deformation of the hierarchy of N copies of KdV obtained by an infinitesimal action of the Givental group. By first deforming the Hirota quadratic equations and then applying a fundamental lemma to express it in terms of pseudo-differential operators, we show that such deformed hierarchy admits an explicit Lax formulation. We then compare the deformed Hamiltonians obtained from the Lax equations with the analogous formulas obtained in [1, 2], to find that they agree. We finally comment on the possibility of extending the Hirota and Lax formulation on the whole orbit of the Givental group action.

description: Let $(R, \mf, k_R)$ be regular local $k$-algebra satisfying the weak Jacobian criterion, such that $k_R/k$ is an algebraic field extension. Let $D_R$ be the ring of $k$-linear differential operators of $R$. We give an explicit decomposition of the $D_R$-module $D_R/D_R \mf_R^{n+1}$ as a direct sum of simple modules, all isomorphic to $D_R/D_R \mf$, where certain "Pochhammer" differential operators are used to describe generators of the simple components.

description: To develop nutritional beverages for older adults, understanding their dynamic sensory perception is vital. Limited research has used Temporal Dominance of Sensations (TDS) methodology to evaluate the dynamic perception of beverages with older adults. Therefore, this study sought to measure the effectiveness of the TDS methodology to investigate the differences in dynamic perception by older adults across a range of texturally modified Oral Nutritional Supplements (ONS). Thirty-five older adults (65+ years) evaluated four ONS of differing viscosities ranging from low (0.009 Pa.s at 50 s−1) to high viscosity (0.177 Pa.s at 50 s−1) over one 30-minute session. For each ONS, a 45 mL volume was consumed, over three 15 mL sips. Panellists evaluated each sip over 40 seconds. Liking was also measured using a 9-point hedonic scale. To make a judgement on older adult’s use of the method, a younger cohort of volunteers (18–35 years) also completed the beverage evaluation as a benchmark. Older adults indicated 3.9 dominances, based on 2.8 attributes, and waited 22 seconds before selecting their first attribute. No differences in average dominance durations were apparent with age. Furthermore, older adults generated clear TDS curves and effectively used the TDS task to discriminate between the four texturally modified ONS. Some similarities in dominant attributes were apparent across older and younger cohorts. This study enhanced our understanding of how older adults utilise the TDS technique to evaluate liquid type products. The study showed that the TDS technique is suitable for use with older adults.

description: Based on a detailed analysis of the high-quality Chandra, XMM-Newton, and Suzaku data of the X-ray bright cluster of galaxies Abell 1795, we report clear evidence for a two-phase intracluster medium (ICM) structure, which consists of a cool (with a temperature T = 2.0-2.2 keV) and a hot (T = 5.0-5.7 keV) component that coexist and dominate the X-ray emission at least in the central 80 kpc. A third weak emission component (T = 0.8 keV) is also detected within the innermost 144 kpc and is ascribed to a portion of inter-stellar medium (ISM) of the cD galaxy. Deprojected spectral analysis reveals flat radial temperature distributions for both the hot phase and cool phase components. These results are consistent with the ASCA measurements reported in Xu et al. (1998), and resemble the previous findings for the Centaurus cluster (e.g., Takahashi et al. 2009). By analyzing the emission measure ratio and gas metal abundance maps created from the Chandra data, we find that the cool phase component is more metal-enriched than the hot phase one in 50-100 kpc region, which agrees with that found in M87 (Simionescu et al. 2008). The coexistence of the cool phase and hot phase ICM cannot be realized by bubble uplifting from active galactic nuclei (AGN) alone. Instead, the two-phase ICM properties are better reconciled with a cD corona model (Makishima et al. 2001). (Abridged)

description: We study the influence of the intrinsic curvature on the large time behaviour of the heat equation in a tubular neighbourhood of an unbounded geodesic in a two-dimensional Riemannian manifold. Since we consider killing boundary conditions, there is always an exponential-type decay for the heat semigroup. We show that this exponential-type decay is slower for positively curved manifolds comparing to the flat case. As the main result, we establish a sharp extra polynomial-type decay for the heat semigroup on negatively curved manifolds comparing to the flat case. The proof employs the existence of Hardy-type inequalities for the Dirichlet Laplacian in the tubular neighbourhoods on negatively curved manifolds and the method of self-similar variables and weighted Sobolev spaces for the heat equation.

Hamiltonian study for Chern-Simons and Pontryagin theories

description: The Hamiltonian analysis for the Chern-Simons theory and Pontryagin invariant, which depends of a connection valued in the Lie algebra of SO(3,1), is performed. By applying a pure Dirac's method we find for both theories the extended Hamiltonian, the extended action, the constraint algebra, the gauge transformations and we carry out the counting of degrees of freedom. From the results obtained in the present analysis, we will conclude that the theories under study have a closed relation among its constraints and defines a topological field theory. In addition, we extends the configuration space for the Pontryagin theory and we develop the Hamiltonian analysis for this modified version, finding a best description of the results previously obtained.

description: This report describes results from the cooperative Gulf of Mexico Shark Pupping and Nursery (GULFSPAN) survey for 2022. The GULFPSAN survey began in 2003 to examine the distribution and abundance of juvenile sharks in coastal areas of the Gulf of Mexico. The ultimate intent of this survey is to continue to describe and further refine shark essential fish habitat as mandated by the Magnuson-Stevens Fishery Conservation and Management Act (US DOC 2007). NOAA Fisheries Panama City Laboratory oversees the survey and provides gillnet gear and tags. Individual collaborators are responsible for collection, storing, and compiling their data as well as writing their section of the year-end report. This year, collaborators included (from west to east): the University of Southern Mississippi Gulf Coast Research Laboratory (Mississippi Sound, Mississippi), NOAA Fisheries Panama City Laboratory (Northwest Florida), Florida State University Coastal and Marine Laboratory (Big Bend of Florida), and New College of Florida (southern Tampa Bay and Sarasota Bay, Florida).
