description: 1RXS J180408.9–342058 is a transient neutron star low-mass X-ray binary that exhibited a bright accretion outburst in 2015. We present NuSTAR, Swift, and Chandra observations obtained around the peak brightness of this outburst. The source was in a soft X-ray spectral state and displayed an X-ray luminosity of LX ≃ (2–3) × 1037(D/5.8 kpc)2 erg s−1 (0.5–10 keV). The NuSTAR data reveal a broad Fe–K emission line that we model as relativistically broadened reflection to constrain the accretion geometry. We found that the accretion disc is viewed at an inclination of i ≃ 27°–35° and extended close to the neutron star, down to Rin ≃ 5–7.5 gravitational radii (≃11–17 km). This inner disc radius suggests that the neutron star magnetic field strength is B ≲ 2 × 108 G. We find a narrow absorption line in the Chandra/HEG data at an energy of ≃7.64 keV with a significance of ≃4.8σ. This feature could correspond to blueshifted Fe xxvi and arise from an accretion disc wind, which would imply an outflow velocity of vout ≃ 0.086c (≃25 800 km s−1). However, this would be extreme for an X-ray binary and it is unclear if a disc wind should be visible at the low inclination angle that we infer from our reflection analysis. Finally, we discuss how the X-ray and optical properties of 1RXS J180408.9–342058 are consistent with a relatively small (Porb ≲ 3 h) binary orbit.

Feature engineering for a symbolic approach to text classification.

description: Most text classification research to date has used the standard "bag of words" model for text representation inherited from the word-based indexing techniques used in information retrieval research. There have been a number of past attempts to find better representations, but very few positive results have been found. Most of this previous work, however, has concentrated on retrieval rather than classification tasks, and none has involved symbolic learning algorithms. This thesis investigates a number of feature engineering methods for text classification in the context of a symbolic rule-based learning algorithm. The focus is on changing the standard "bag of words" representation of text by incorporating some shallow linguistic processing techniques. Several new representations of text are explored in the hopes that they will allow the learner to find points of high information gain that were not present in the original set of words. Representations based on both semantic and syntactic linguistic knowledge are defined and evaluated using the RIPPER rule-learning system. Two major corpora are used for evaluation: a standard, widely-used corpus of news stories, and a new corpus of folk song lyrics. The results of the experiments are mostly negative. Although in some cases the new representations are at least as good as the bag of words, the improvements in quantitative performance that were hoped for do not materialize. However, the results are not entirely discouraging. The syntactically defined representations may enable the learner to produce simpler and more comprehensible hypotheses, and the semantically defined representations do produce some real performance gains on smaller classification tasks that for various reasons fail to scale up to larger tasks. Some ideas are offered as to why the new representations fail to produce better results, and some suggestions are made for continuing the research in future.

description: Reconfigurable intelligent surface (RIS) used as infrastructure in wireless networks has been a trend, thanks to its low cost and high flexibility. Working in many ways including reflective mirrors and phase-shifted surfaces, RIS is able to enhance the coverage in communications and provide more degrees of freedom for sensing. However, the key issue lies in how to place RIS in accordance with the regulations for electromagnetic field (EMF) exposure, which requires refined evaluations. In this paper, we first investigate the regulations in terms of E-field. Then, relevant deployment characteristics are evaluated jointly: the minimum distance from the base station (BS) to the RIS, and the minimum height of the RIS are given for a given BS power limit and as function of the number of RIS elements. The ray-tracing simulations verify the correctness of our analysis. Besides, different frequency ranges (FRs) and radiation patterns of RIS elements are investigated. The results show that the EMF exposure risk is negligible when RIS works in the reflective-only (RO) mode. However, when it works in the beamforming (BO) mode, its placement should be well specified based on our analytical framework to comply with the regulations of E-field limit in general public scenarios. Finally, we provide an E-field measurement methodology and low-cost solutions in terms of general wireless networks and 5G standalone networks, which pave the way for real-world evaluation in future work.

description: The correlation between radio spectral index and redshift has been exploited to discover high-redshift radio galaxies, but its underlying cause is unclear. It is crucial to characterize the particle acceleration and loss mechanisms in high-redshift radio galaxies to understand why their radio spectral indices are steeper than their local counterparts. Low-frequency information on scales of ∼1 arcsec are necessary to determine the internal spectral index variation. In this paper we present the first spatially resolved studies at frequencies below 100 MHz of the z = 2.4 radio galaxy 4C 43.15 which was selected based on its ultrasteep spectral index (α < −1; Sν ∼ να) between 365 MHz and 1.4 GHz. Using the International Low Frequency Array Low Band Antenna we achieve subarcsecond imaging resolution at 55 MHz with very long baseline interferometry techniques. Our study reveals low-frequency radio emission extended along the jet axis, which connects the two lobes. The integrated spectral index for frequencies <500 MHz is −0.83. The lobes have integrated spectral indices of −1.31 ± 0.03 and −1.75 ± 0.01 for frequencies ≥1.4 GHz, implying a break frequency between 500 MHz and 1.4 GHz. These spectral properties are similar to those of local radio galaxies. We conclude that the initially measured ultrasteep spectral index is due to a combination of the steepening spectrum at high frequencies with a break at intermediate frequencies.

description: these are fragile days… is a photo-based installation artwork that uses the form of the archive to explore how photography is used to reflect on the legacy of the Holocaust. Within the artwork and the accompanying support paper, I answer core questions in my art practice, both in terms of the material construction of my work as well as some of the underlying theoretical concerns. The paper outlines the complexities of evoking the Holocaust. I address the way in which the Holocaust has been co-opted by nationalist movements and the ways that victims of the Holocaust are often re-victimized in systems of memorialization. Situating myself as a 3rd generation survivor of the Holocaust, I examine how Marianne Hirsch’s concept of “postmemory” infiltrates my life and the trajectory of my art practice. My own compulsion to photograph and archive, evident in the amassing of the 1800 photographs mounted on steel plates that form the core of the artwork, is examined through the lens of historic genocide and trauma. In this examination, personal archives of photographs play an important role in remembrance creating direct links to an unrecoverable way of life. In this way, graves, which for generations established an archive of bodies connected to place, are replaced by fragile collections of family photographs. This sense of fragility became an important thematic throughline in the art installation. Imbedded within the 22-month period that the archive references, there are numerous depictions that speak to the fragility of our world. The narrative structure of the archive draws us through fragile moments of domestic family life, the changing face of communities as well as the broad indicators of climate change. In developing an interactive exhibition that exposes the specific conditions of my own fragility, where viewers are able to handle the residue of my passage, I am entrusting my audience to take care and appreciate the small moments that make life meaningful. In this way, I am creating an installation that provokes a nurturing response that addresses the erasure that results from the legacy of genocide and points a way forward through these difficult times.

This means that a worldwide ban on the sale and application of the chemical will soon become effective. For a long time HBCD was the most economically significant flame retardant used in polystyrene foam for insulation materials. We have compiled information about why the chemical will no longer be used, what transitional phases are likely to be in effect in the EU, what the alternatives are, and how to dispose of insulation materials which contain HBCD.

description: Model-independent distance constraints to binary millisecond pulsars (MSPs) are of great value to both the timing observations of the radio pulsars and multiwavelength observations of their companion stars. Astrometry using very long baseline interferometry (VLBI) can be employed to provide these model-independent distances with very high precision via the detection of annual geometric parallax. Using the Very Long Baseline Array, we have observed two binary MSPs, PSR J1022+1001 and J2145–0750, over a two-year period and measured their distances to be ${700}_{-10}^{+14}$ pc and ${613}_{-14}^{+16}$ pc respectively. We use the well-calibrated distance in conjunction with revised analysis of optical photometry to tightly constrain the nature of their massive ($Msim 0.85$ ${M}_{odot }$) white dwarf companions. Finally, we show that several measurements of the parallax and proper motion of PSR J1022+1001 and PSR J2145–0750 obtained by pulsar timing array projects are incorrect, differing from the more precise VLBI values by up to 5σ. We investigate possible causes for the discrepancy, and find that imperfect modeling of the solar wind is a likely candidate for the errors in the timing model given the low ecliptic latitude of these two pulsars.

description: A fundamental mistake in receptor theory has led to an enduring misunderstanding of how to estimate the affinity and efficacy of an agonist. These properties are inextricably linked and cannot be easily separated in any case where the binding of a ligand induces a conformation change in its receptor. Consequently, binding curves and concentration-response relationships for receptor agonists have no straightforward interpretation. This problem, the affinity-efficacy problem, remains overlooked and misunderstood despite it being recognised in 1987. To avoid the further propagation of this misunderstanding, we propose that the affinity-efficacy problem should be included in the core curricula for pharmacology undergraduates proposed by the British Pharmacological Society and IUPHAR.

description: The liver integrates multiple metabolic pathways to warrant systemic energy homeostasis. An excessive lipogenic flux due to chronic dietary stimulation contributes to the development of hepatic steatosis, dyslipidemia and hyperglycemia. Here we show that the oxidoreductase retinol saturase (RetSat) is involved in the development of fatty liver. Hepatic RetSat expression correlates with steatosis and serum triglycerides (TGs) in humans. Liver- specific depletion of RetSat in dietary obese mice lowers hepatic and circulating TGs and normalizes hyperglycemia. Mechanistically, RetSat depletion reduces the activity of carbohydrate response element binding protein (ChREBP), a cellular hexose-phosphate sensor and inducer of lipogenesis. Defects upon RetSat depletion are rescued by ectopic expression of ChREBP but not by its putative enzymatic product 13,14-dihydroretinol, suggesting that RetSat affects hepatic glucose sensing independent of retinol conversion. Thus, RetSat is a critical regulator of liver metabolism functioning upstream of ChREBP. Pharmacological inhibition of liver RetSat may represent a therapeutic approach for steatosis.

description: Au Niger, les femmes rurales, dans l'accomplissement de leurs responsabilites de nourrir, d'eduquer et d'instruire leurs enfants, sont des educatrices principales du processus de developpement humain et social. En tant qu'agricultrices, commercantes et citoyennes economiquement actives, elles sont aussi importantes dans le developpement economique. Malgre tout, en raison des contraintes sociales, economiques et juridiques auxquelles elles se heurtent, bon nombre d'entre elles font partie des couches les plus pauvres de la societe. Au vu des resultats d'une etude de cas effectuee dans la region de Maradi aupres de: (1) trente (30) femmes rurales ayant suivi un programme d'alphabetisation d'un projet: le projet PAMAS; (2) une (1) des animatrices de cours du projet PAMAS et; (3) treize (13) villageois, on peut en deduire que la perspective fonctionnelle et la perspective conscientisante de l'alphabetisation de la facon dont elles avaient ete animees par le projet PAMAS ont eu un effet marginal sur la vie quotidienne des beneficiaires. La conclusion a laquelle notre etude abouti, c'est l'absence de toute liaison entre l'alphabetisation et le contexte economique et socioculturelle. (Abstract shortened by UMI.)

description: The objectives of the present research were twofold. The main objective was to study the effects of different types of social situations (very intimate vs. very task-specific), language choices made by Anglophone interlocutors (French vs. English) and subjects' ethnolinguistic vitality (French vs. English) on the language spoken by Francophones and on their perception of the interaction. A secondary goal was to develop a taxonomy of social situations representative of the everyday lives of students to serve in a study of ethnolinguistic contact. In order to achieve these objectives three studies were conducted. In the first study a total of 4753 relationships, topics of conversation and activities constituting various interpersonal situations were provided by 484 subjects. The social situations were rank-ordered by 121 student/experimenters according to their level of intimacy and task specificity. The social situations collected could be grouped into six clusters representing six levels of intimacy and task specificity. On the basis of these clusters a taxonomy of social situations was elaborated. A second study was conducted to further validate the findings obtained in the first study and to select 8 social situations to serve as stimuli in the third study. Two hundred and forty-three students from introductory psychology classes rated 20 social situations on their degree of intimacy and task specificity. The twenty social situations used as stimuli were taken from the taxonomy presented in the first study. In a third and final study, Francophone subjects' language behavior was studied by having them read four short vignettes representing an interaction between a Francophone and an Anglophone. The subjects were instructed to identify with the Francophone interlocutor represented in the vignettes and to respond in writing to the Anglophone interlocutor in the language of their choice. Depending on the experimental condition the subjects were exposed to one of four possibilities: (1) four vignettes representing very intimate situations where the Anglophone interlocutor always responded in French, (2) four vignettes representing very intimate situations where the Anglophone interlocutor always responded in English, (3) four vignettes representing very task-specific situations where the Anglophone interlocutor always responded in French, and lastly (4) four vignettes representing very task-specific situations where the Anglophone interlocutor always responded in English.

description: We track and investigate from white-light data taken with the Wide-field Instrument for Solar PRobe (WISPR) aboard Parker Solar Probe (PSP), localized density enhancements, reflecting small-scale magnetic structures belonging to a filament-related coronal mass ejection (CME). We aim to investigate the 3D location, morphology, and evolution of the internal magnetic fine structures of CMEs. Specifically, we ask: what is their relationship with the filament/source region and the flux rope? The fast tangential motion of the PSP spacecraft during its perihelion permits viewing the same event from multiple angles in short times relative to the event's evolution. Hence, we can derive the three-dimensional information of selected CME features from a single spacecraft using triangulation techniques. We group small-scale structures with roughly similar speeds, longitude and latitude, into three distinct morphological groups. We find twisted magnetic field patterns close to the eastern leg of the CME that may be related to 'horns' outlining the edges of the flux-rope cavity. Aligned thread-like bundles are identified close to the western leg. They may be related to confined density enhancements evolving during the filament eruption. High density blob-like features (magnetic islands) are widely spread in longitude ($\sim$40°) close to the flanks and rear part of the CME. We demonstrate that CME flux ropes may comprise different morphological groups with a cluster behavior, apart from the blobs which instead span a wide range of longitudes. This may hint either to the three-dimensionality of the post-CME current sheet (CS) or to the influence of the ambient corona in the evolutionary behavior of the CS. Importantly, we show that the global appearance of the CME can be very different in WISPR (0.11--0.16~AU) and instruments near 1~AU because of shorter line-of-sight integration of WISPR.

description: The V-FASTR experiment on the Very Long Baseline Array was designed to detect dispersed pulses of
milliseconds in duration, such as fast radio bursts (FRBs). We use all V-FASTR data through 2015 February to report V-FASTR’s upper limits on the rates of FRBs, and compare these with rederived rates from Parkes FRB detection experiments. V-FASTR’s operation at l = 20 cm allows direct comparison with the 20 cm Parkes rate, and we derive a power-law limit of g < -0.4 (95% confidence limit) on the index of FRB source counts, N (>S) μ Sg. Using the previously measured FRB rate and the unprecedented amount of survey time spent searching for FRBs at a large range of wavelengths (0.3 cm > l > 90 cm), we also place frequency-dependent limits on the spectral distribution of FRBs. The most constraining frequencies place two-point spectral index limits of a 20 cm < 5.8 4 cm and a > -7.6 90 cm 20 cm , where fluence F μ f a if we assume that the burst rate reported by Champion
et al. of R(F ~ 0.6 Jy ms) = 7 ´ 103 sky-1 day-1 is accurate (for bursts of ∼3 ms duration). This upper limit on α suggests that if FRBs are extragalactic but noncosmological, on average they are not experiencing excessive free–free absorption due to a medium with high optical depth (assuming temperature ∼8000 K), which excessively inverts their low-frequency spectrum. This in turn implies that the dispersion of FRBs arises in either or both of the intergalactic medium or the host galaxy, rather than from the source itself.

Vor diesem Hintergrund wurde auch der Restaurierungsgeschichte der letzten einhundert Jahre besondere Aufmerksamkeit geschenkt, da die in der Vergangenheit durchgeführten Maßnahmen einen entscheidenden Einfluss auf den heutigen Zustand der Objekte hatten. Ein separater Projektteil widmete sich der seinerzeit angefertigten fotografischen Dokumentation der Grabung durch den Speyerer Fotografen Jakob Schröck. Die heute im Archiv des Historischen Museums der Pfalz lagernde Dokumentation umfasst mehrere hundert Glasplattennegative und Papierpositive, die im Rahmen des Projekts konserviert und digitalisiert wurden und den Projektbeteiligten aktuell in Form einer Datenbank zur Verfügung stehen. Ein weiterer Fokus lag auf der langfristigen Verbesserung der Aufbewahrungssituation der organischen Materialien. Für die fragilen Exponate wurde 2011 eine neue Depotlösung realisiert, die den klimatischen Anforderungen der Objekte gerecht wird, die wissenschaftliche Bearbeitung der Exponate erleichtert und ihren dauerhaften Erhalt sicherstellt. Den vorläufigen Abschluss des KUR-Projekts markierten eine Sonderausstellung und eine begleitende Publikation, in der erste Erkenntnisse dieses Forschungsvorhabens der Öffentlichkeit vorgestellt wurden.

description: Background: Ovarian cancer (OvCa) is a highly aggressive malignoma with a tumor-promoting microenvironment. Infiltration of polymorphonuclear neutrophils (PMN) is frequently seen, raising the question of their impact on tumor development. In that context, effects of PMN on human ovarian cancer cells were assessed. Methods: Human epithelial ovarian cancer cells were incubated with human PMN, lysate of PMN, or neutrophil elastase. Morphological alterations were observed by time-lapse video-microscopy, and the underlying molecular mechanism was analyzed by flow cytometry and Western blotting. Functional alternations were assessed by an in vitro wound healing assay. In parallel, a large cohort of n=334 primary OvCa tissue samples of various histological subtypes was histologically evaluated. Results: Co-cultivation of cancer cells with either PMN or PMN lysate causes a change of the polygonal epithelial phenotype of the cells towards a spindle shaped morphology, causing a cribriform cell growth. The PMN-induced alteration could be attributed to elastase, a major protease of PMN. Elastase-induced shape change was most likely due to the degradation of membranous E-cadherin, which results in loss of cell contacts and polarity. Moreover, in response to elastase, epithelial cytokeratins were downmodulated, in parallel with a nuclear translocation of β-catenin. These PMN-elastase induced alterations of cells are compatible with an epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition (EMT) of the cancer cells. Following EMT, the cells displayed a more migratory phenotype. In human biopsies, neutrophil infiltration was seen in 72% of the cases. PMN infiltrates were detected preferentially in areas with low E-cadherin expression. Conclusion: PMN in the microenvironment of OvCa can alter tumor cells towards a mesenchymal and migratory phenotype.

description: The obtaining of bis-quinine, a novel alkaloid dimer, has been successfully achieved starting from quinine and the raw coconut juice (Cocos nucifera) as biocatalyst dimerization-like reaction, in mild conditions, with a mass yield of 64.7% in 72 h. The structural elucidation was made based on the spectral data, mainly by a high-field NMR and a mass spectrometry. In a second step, theoretical calculations were performed, an optimised energy structure of the new compound was obtained, the energy gap of the boundary orbitals (HOMO and LUMO) as well as the chemical reactivity descriptors were estimated.

description: Context. The growth of dust grains from sub-mm to mm and cm size is the first step towards the formation of planetesimals. Theoretical models of grain growth predict dust properties to change as a function of disk radius, mass, age and other physical conditions. High angular resolution observations at several (sub-)mm wavelengths constitute the ideal tool to directly probe the bulk of dust grains and to investigate the radial distribution of their properties. Aims. We lay down the methodology for a multi-wavelength analysis of (sub-)mm and cm continuum interferometric observations to
constrain self-consistently the disk structure and the radial variation of the dust properties. The computational architecture is massively parallel and highly modular. Methods. The analysis is based on the simultaneous fit in the uv-plane of observations at several wavelengths with a model for the
disk thermal emission and for the dust opacity. The observed flux density at the different wavelengths is fitted by posing constraints on the disk structure and on the radial variation of the grain size distribution. Results. We apply the analysis to observations of three protoplanetary disks (AS 209, FT Tau, DR Tau) for which a combination of spatially resolved observations in the range 0.88mm to 10mm is available (from SMA, CARMA, and VLA). In these disks we find evidence of a decrease in the maximum dust grain size, amax, with radius. We derive large amax values up to 1 cm in the inner disk
15AU ¤ R ¤ 30AU and smaller grains with amax 1mm in the outer disk (R Á 80AU). Our analysis of the AS 209 protoplanetary disk confirms previous literature results showing amax decreasing with radius. Conclusions. Theoretical studies of planetary formation through grain growth are plagued by the lack of direct information on the radial distribution of the dust grain size. In this paper we develop a multi-wavelength analysis that will allow this missing quantity to be constrained for statistically relevant samples of disks and to investigate possible correlations with disk or stellar parameters.

description: Die EU-Umgebungslärmrichtlinie fordert neben der Entwicklung von Lärm mindernden Maßnahmen für hoch belastete Bereiche unter anderem den Schutz von ruhigen Gebieten. Dies deckt sich mit den Zielen einer integrierten Stadtentwicklung, die nicht nur die Lärmbelastung in den Städten senken sollte, sondern auch siedlungsnahe öffentliche Räume für Erholung, Ruhe und Freizeit anbieten, in denen die Bevölkerung Ruhe finden kann. In den Kommunen gibt es jedoch große Unsicherheiten wegen fehlender Vorgaben zur Auswahl von ruhigen Gebieten und offenen Fragen zu den Rechtsfolgen einer Festsetzung. Vor diesem Hintergrund gibt der vorliegende Beitrag Hinweise zum praktischen Vorgehen. Quelle: Ruhige Gebiete [Elektronische Ressource] / Eckhardt Heinrichs [und drei weitere]. - S. 1-18.

description: The European Environmental Noise Directive requires the development of noise-reducing measures for noise exposed areas as well as the protection of quiet areas. This corresponds to the objectives of integrated urban development, which are to lower the noise exposure in cities, and to offer accessible public spaces for recreation, quietness and leisure where people can escape from their daily urban routine. Municipalities are still often uncertain as to how they can determine quiet areas, because they don̷t have enough guidelines yet. Moreover, questions about the legal consequences of establishing quiet areas lead to further delay in planning and implementing. In that context this paper attempts to help and provide practical approaches. Quelle: Ruhige Gebiete [Elektronische Ressource] / Eckhardt Heinrichs [und drei weitere]. - S. 1-18.

Murine models of DICER1 syndrome-associated cancers : development and characterization
Creators: name: Moscovitz, Yana
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2025

description: DICER1 syndrome is a rare genetic disorder that predisposes individuals to hereditary cancers, with tumours arising in organs such as the lung, gynecologic tract, thyroid, kidney, and brain. This syndrome is driven by germline loss-of-function mutations in the DICER1 gene, typically inherited in an autosomal dominant manner. Tumours acquire somatic mutations affecting the RNase IIIb domain on the alternate allele, resulting in compound heterozygosity. These mutations impair DICER1's ability to cleave precursor miRNAs, disrupting microRNA biogenesis, an essential process for gene expression regulation. While the role of DICER1 mutations in tumour initiation is well-established, the mechanisms underlying tumour progression remain poorly understood. To address this gap, a genetically engineered mouse model harbouring a specific Dicer1 RNase IIIb mutation was developed. Tumours in this model displayed histological and molecular characteristics resembling those of human DICER1-associated cancers, including renal cystic nephroma, Wilms tumours, and anaplastic sarcoma of the kidney. Exome sequencing indicated that tumour progression may be influenced by accumulating secondary mutations, such as alterations in Trp53 and Kras. Syngeneic models and cell lines derived from these tumours were established, offering a robust platform to evaluate therapeutic strategies. This study demonstrates that the Dicer1 RNase IIIb mouse model faithfully recapitulates DICER1-associated tumourigenesis and progression. By enabling the investigation of tumour biology and therapeutic testing, this model provides a foundation for identifying targeted treatments for DICER1 syndrome-associated cancers.
Testing Realism for Mesoscopic Systems

description: The motivation of this thesis is to develop an understanding of the quantum nature of mesoscopic and macroscopic quantum systems. We are interested in quantum properties such as entanglement, Bell-nonlocality, and violations of different forms of realism, including Leggett-Garg macro-realism. These quantum properties allow the falsification of whole classes of classical theories. Additionally, they provide a foundation for developing quantum technologies. In this thesis, we aim to give predictions of the quantum features in systems which act as quantum simulators of other inaccessible systems. We are also interested in understanding entanglement and macro-realism violations in systems that simulate the early universe.

description: We investigated a possible interaction between cold dark matter and dark energy, corresponding to a well-known interacting dark energy model discussed in the literature within the context of resolving the Hubble tension. We put constraints on it in a novel way, by creating new likelihoods with an analytical marginalization over the Hubble parameter $H_0$, the sound horizon $r_d$, and the supernova absolute magnitude $M_B$. Our aim is to investigate the impacts on the coupling parameter of the interacting model, $ξ$, and the equation of state of dark energy $w$ and the matter density parameter $Ω_{m,0}$. The late-time cosmological probes used in our analysis include the PantheonPlus (calibrated and uncalibrated), cosmic chronometers, and baryon acoustic oscillation samples and the Pantheon for comparison. Through various combinations of these datasets, we demonstrate hints of an up to $2σ$ deviation from the standard $Λ$ cold dark matter model.
