description: We develop a numerical code to calculate the neutrino transfer with multi-energy and multi-angle in three dimensions (3D) for the study of core-collapse supernovae. The numerical code solves the Boltzmann equations for neutrino distributions by the discrete-ordinate (S_n) method with a fully implicit differencing for time advance. The Boltzmann equations are formulated in the inertial frame with collision terms being evaluated to the zeroth order of v/c. A basic set of neutrino reactions for three neutrino species is implemented together with a realistic equation of state of dense matter. The pair process is included approximately in order to keep the system linear. We present numerical results for a set of test problems to demonstrate the ability of the code. The numerical treatments of advection and collision terms are validated first in the diffusion and free streaming limits. Then we compute steady neutrino distributions for a background extracted from a spherically symmetric, general relativistic simulation of 15Msun star and compare them with the results in the latter computation. We also demonstrate multi-D capabilities of the 3D code solving neutrino transfers for artificially deformed supernova cores in 2D and 3D. Formal solutions along neutrino paths are utilized as exact solutions. We plan to apply this code to the 3D neutrino-radiation hydrodynamics simulations of supernovae. This is the first article in a series of reports on the development.

description: Multi-frequency observations are a powerful tool of astrophysical investigation. Not only is data in each wavelength band providing different clues to the objects nature, but taken simultaneously, these data can reveal the mechanisms at work in astrophysical objects. In the past years, joint multi-frequency observations with the H.E.S.S. telescopes in the very high energy (VHE, E>100GeV) band and several other experiments in the radio, optical, X-ray, and high energy (HE, E>100MeV) bands have lead to intriguing results that will ultimately help answering the open questions of the location of the very high energy emission, details of the acceleration mechanism, and the role of the central black hole.

description: The existing approaches to quantization of gravity aim at giving quantum description of 3-geometry following to the ideas of the Wheeler -- DeWitt geometrodynamics. In this description the role of gauge gravitational degrees of freedom is missed. A probable alternative is to consider gravitational dynamics in extended phase space, taking into account the distinctions between General Relativity and other field theories. The formulation in extended phase space leads to some consequences at classical and quantum levels. At the classical level, it ensures that Hamiltonian dynamics is fully equivalent to Lagrangian dynamics, and the algebra of Poisson brackets is invariant under reparametrizations in a wide enough class including reparametrizations of gauge variables, meantime in the canonical Dirac approach the constraints' algebra is not invariant that creates problems with quantization. At the quantum level, the approach come to the description in which the observer can see various but complementary quantum gravitational phenomena in different reference frames that answers the spirit of General Relativity and Quantum Theory. Though until now the approach was applied to General Relativity in its original formulations, its implementation in different trends, including Quantum Loop Gravity or some other representations of gravitational variables, would also be of interest.

description: We use the coupled cluster method in high orders of approximation to make a comprehensive study of the ground-state (GS) phase diagram of the spin-1/2 $J_{1}$--$J_{2}$--$J_{3}$ model on a two-dimensional honeycomb lattice with antiferromagnetic (AFM) interactions up to third-nearest neighbors. Results are presented for the GS energy and the average local on-site magnetization. With the nearest-neighbor coupling strength $J_{1} \equiv 1$ we find four magnetically ordered phases in the parameter window $J_{2},J_{3} \in [0,1]$, namely the Néel (N), striped (S), and anti-Néel (aN) collinear AFM phases, plus a spiral phase. The aN phase appears as a stable GS phase in the classical version of the model only for values $J_{3}<0$. Each of these four ordered phases shares a boundary with a disordered quantum paramagnetic (QP) phase, and at several widely separated points on the phase boundaries the QP phase has an infinite susceptibility to plaquette valence-bond crystalline order. We identify all of the phase boundaries with good precision in the parameter window studied, and we find three tricritical quantum critical points therein at: (a) $(J_{2}^{c_1},J_{3}^{c_1})=(0.51 \pm 0.01,0.69 \pm 0.01)$ between the N, S, and QP phases; (b) $(J_{2}^{c_2},J_{3}^{c_2})=(0.65 \pm 0.02,0.55 \pm 0.01)$ between the S, spiral, and QP phases; and (c) $(J_{2}^{c_3},J_{3}^{c_3})=(0.69 \pm 0.01,0.12 \pm 0.01)$ between the spiral, aN, and QP phases.

The Effect of High Column Density Systems on the Measurement of the Lyman αForest Correlation Function

description: We present a study of the effect of High Column Density (HCD) systems on the Lyman αforest correlation function on large scales. We study the effect both numerically, by inserting HCD systems on mock spectra for a specific model, and analytically, in the context of two-point correlations and linear theory. We show that the presence of HCDs substantially contributes to the noise of the correlation function measurement, and systematically alters the measured redshift-space correlation function of the Lyman αforest, increasing the value of the density bias factor and decreasing the redshift distortion parameter $β_α$ of the Lyman αforest. We provide simple formulae for corrections on these derived parameters, as a function of the mean effective optical depth and bias factor of the host halos of the HCDs, and discuss the conditions under which these expressions should be valid. In practice, precise corrections to the measured parameters of the Lyman αforest correlation for the HCD effects are more complex than the simple analytical approximations we present, owing to non-linear effects of the damped wings of the HCD systems and the presence of three-point terms. However, we conclude that an accurate correction for these HCD effects can be obtained numerically and calibrated with observations of the HCD-Lyman αcross-correlation. We also discuss an analogous formalism to treat and correct for the contaminating effect of metal lines overlapping the Lyman αforest spectra.

description: This paper puts forward a safe mechanism of data transmission to tackle the security problem of information which is transmitted in Internet. The encryption standards such as DES (Data Encryption Standard), AES (Advanced Encryption Standard) and EES (Escrowed Encryption Standard) are widely used to solve the problem of communication over an insecure channel. With advanced technologies in computer hardware and software, these standards seem not to be as secure and fast as one would like. In this paper we propose a encryption technique which provides security to both the message and the secret key achieving confidentiality and authentication. The Symmetric algorithm used has two advantages over traditional schemes. First, the encryption and decryption procedures are much simpler, and consequently, much faster. Second, the security level is higher due to the inherent poly-alphabetic nature of the substitution mapping method used here, together with the translation and transposition operations performed in the algorithm. Asymmetric algorithm RSA is worldwide known for its high security. In this paper a detailed report of the process is presented and analysis is done comparing our proposed technique with familiar techniques

description: Collective dynamics on small-world networks emerge in a broad range of systems with their spectra characterizing fundamental asymptotic features. Here we derive analytic mean field predictions for the spectra of small-world models that systematically interpolate between regular and random topologies by varying their randomness. These theoretical predictions agree well with the actual spectra (obtained by numerical diagonalization) for undirected and directed networks and from fully regular to strongly random topologies. These results may provide analytical insights to empirically found features of dynamics on small-world networks from various research fields, including biology, physics, engineering and social science.

description: The genetic heritage of wheat (Triticum spp.) crops has been shaped by millions of years of predomestication natural selection, often driven by competition among individuals. However, genetic improvements in yield potential are thought to involve selection towards reduced competitiveness, thus enhancing adaptation to the crop environment. We investigated potential trade-offs between individual plant fitness and community performance using a population of introgression lines carrying chromosome segments of wild emmer (nondomesticated) in the background of an elite durum cultivar. We focused on light as a primary factor affecting plant–plant interactions and assessed morphological and biomass phenotypes of single plants grown in mixtures under sunlight and a simulated canopy shade, and the relevance of these phenotypes for the monoculture community in the field. We found that responses to canopy shade resemble responses to high density and contribute to both the individual and the community. Stepwise regressions suggested that grain number per spike and its persistence under shade are essential attributes of productive communities, advocating their use as a breeding target during early-generation selection. Overall, multiple phenotypes attained under shade could better explain community performance. Our novel, applicable, high-throughput set-up provides new prospects for studying and selecting single-plant phenotypes in a canopy-like environment.

The resulting representation and algorithms are experimentally evaluated on problems from the domain of bioinformatics.
Hybridisation Between The British And The Spanish Bluebell

description: The native British bluebell, Hyacinthoides non-scripta, is a spring flowering lily, which is well- known in natural, old forests across the British Isles. In the 17th century another bluebell taxon from the Iberian Peninsula was introduced as an ornamental plant. Since the beginning of the last century there have been reports of it in the wild, and it has recently been found to form fully fertile hybrids with the native bluebell. Both hybrids and the alien taxa are spreading, yet that usually occurs close to urban areas probably because of garden escapes. Several surveys and studies looking into the distribution of these taxa have suggested they may be putting the native British bluebell at risk, by outcompeting and replacing them in their natural habitats. However, our understanding of environmental drivers influencing alien invasion is confused by human impact, including on-going plantings and changing land use.

To better understand the dynamic between alien and native taxa, I study a natural hybrid zone between the British bluebell and its sister species, Hyacinthoides hispanica, in Spain, where there is minimal human influence. In this natural hybrid zone we learned from the hybrid’s flower morphologies and additional chloroplast data that the parents contribute symmetrically to the intermediate forms, and the hybrids appear without evident hybrid deficiencies. Gene flow is mainly mediated through pollen exchange, because clonal buds and seed dispersal are only important on an imminent range.

We will use genome-wide markers to get an understanding of patterns of introgression across hundreds of loci.

description: Of the numerous customs and traditions practiced by the Indigenous Cultural Communities/Indigenous Peoples (ICCs/IPs) of CAR, the pechen of Bontoc, Mountain Province is an indigenous knoweldge, systems and practices (IKSP) used in resolving conflicts within the community and between neighboring communities/municipalities. It predates Spaning colonization and has remained a customary way of solving cases and a means of amicable settlement among the Bontok people as well as with disputes with ICCs/IPs in other municipalities. This dissertation looked at the dialogic space of the pechen pact system of Bontoc, Mountain Province guided by the socio-cultural critical theories of communication. It sought to understand the changes, acceptance and relevance of the peace pact vis a vis established local government and legal institutions. Methodologically, the study is highly qualitative, relating principles of narrotology and narrative research. Focus Group Discussions in existing peace pacts between Bontoc and the neighboring municipalities of Sadangam Mountain Province and Tinglayan, Kalinga were conducted. Narrative analysis enabled the researcher to understand the pechen peace pact system as a communication phenomenon that is an affective custom to maintain the peace in communities with peace pacts. Decisions are results of collective dialogues where consensus is reached by the community as a whole. In the pechen and in ICCs in general, individuals are products of their social environment and shared norms, rituals and worldviews. Everyday interactions with other shape cultural patterns and social structures, resulting to the establishment of the existing sociocultural order. As a dynamic and intrinsic cultural practice that has stood the test of time, its importance in keeping the peace cannot be overemphasized. It is crucial that local government units' recognition of the pechen peace pact continue and be strengthened, particularly in the provincial and the national levels since much be learned from the pechen especially in conflict resolution.

Provided are the details of an analytical model that describes the steady-state tooling/workpiece contact area allowing for easy modification of the dominant geometric variables. The assumptions made in formulating this analytical model are validated with experimental results attained from physical modelling. The analysis procedure can be extended to other rotary forming operations such as metal spinning, shear forming, thread rolling and crankshaft fillet rolling.

description: Der Beitrag analysiert die beiden Frauenfiguren Daenerys Targaryen und Brienne of Tarth der HBOSerie Game of Thrones im Hinblick auf ihre Weiblichkeitsdarstellungen. Als Zugang wird eine geschlechtertheoretische Medienanalyse verfolgt. Dieser Analyse liegt die Beobachtung zugrunde, dass die Serie in vielen Fan-Blog-Artikeln aufgrund ihrer Frauencharaktere als feministisch besprochen wird. Mithilfe von Instrumenten der feministischen Filmanalyse werden sowohl die Inhaltsebene als auch die Darstellungsebene der Eigenschaften der Frauenfiguren untersucht und gegenübergestellt. Ausgehend von dekonstruktivistischen und popfeministischen Geschlechtertheorien wird analysiert, ob die aus der Fangemeinde vorgenommene Bewertung der Figuren als feministisch Bestand hat. Als Ergebnis lässt sich festhalten, dass die beiden Frauenfiguren viele Möglichkeiten feministischer Interpretation bieten, allerdings durch die Art der Inszenierung bei Daenerys Targaryen oder durch die brüchige Weiblichkeit bei Brienne of Tarth diese verunmöglicht wird. Die Schwerpunktsetzung auf die beiden genannten Figuren ermöglicht zudem eine kritische Auseinandersetzung mit dem Konzept Weiblichkeit und seinem feministischen Potential in Abgrenzung zum Konzept der female masculinity bzw. der Frage nach Formen weiblicher Herrschaft in Fantasy-Serien. The article analyzes the two female characters Daenerys Targaryen and Brienne of Tarth of the HBO series Game of Thrones with regard to representations from a feminist media studies perspective. This analysis is based on the observation that the series is discussed as feminist in many fan blog articles due to its female characters. Using instruments of feminist film analysis, both the content level and the level of representation of the characteristics of the female characters are examined and compared. On the basis of deconstructivist and pop-feminist gender theories, it is analysed, whether the assessment of the series as feminist made by the fan community can withstand and what difficulties can be found with it. As a result, it can be said that the two female figures offer many possibilities for feminist interpretation, but the way in which Daenerys Targaryen is presented and the fragile femininity of Brienne of Tarth make this impossible. The focus on the two figures mentioned also enables a critical examination of the concept of femininity and its feminist potential in contrast to the concept of female masculinity or the question of forms of female domination in fantasy series.
Conformal fluctuations do not establish a minimum length

description: This paper corrects an earlier work suggesting that the quantum expectation value of the proper length is bounded from below by the Planck length. The original calculation examined fluctuations of the conformal factor of Einstein-Hilbert gravity. However, in Einstein-Hilbert gravity, the conformal factor is not a dynamical field subject to fluctuations. This paper performs the same calculation using the trace anomaly-induced effective action for the conformal factor and finds that, while conformal fluctuations modify the short-distance behavior of the interval, the interval still approaches zero in the coincidence limit.

description: We study the superconducting phase transition, both in a graphene bilayer and in graphite. For that purpose we derive the mean-field effective potential for a stack of graphene layers presenting hopping between adjacent sheets. For describing superconductivity, we assume there is an on-site attractive interaction between electrons and determine the superconducting critical temperature as a function of the chemical potential. This displays a dome-shaped curve, in agreement with previous results for two-dimensional Dirac fermions. We show that the hopping between adjacent layers increases the critical temperature for small values of the chemical potential. Finally, we consider a minimal model for graphite and show that the transition temperature is higher than that for the graphene bilayer for small values of chemical potential. This might explain why intrinsic superconductivity is observed in graphite.

description: Background: A key mechanism in the neuromuscular disease GNE myopathy (GNEM) is believed to be that point mutations in the GNE gene impair sialic acid synthesis – maybe due to UDP-N-acetylglucosamine 2-epimerase/N-acetylmannosamine kinase (GNE) activity restrictions – and resulting in muscle tissue loss. N-acetylmannosamine (ManNAc) is the first product of the bifunctional GNE enzyme and can therefore be regarded as a precursor of sialic acids. This study investigates whether this is also a suitable substance for restoring the sialic acid content in GNE-deficient cells. Methods: A HEK-293 GNE-knockout cell line was generated using CRISPR-Cas9 and analyzed for its ability to synthesize sialic acids. The cells were then supplemented with ManNAc to compensate for possible GNE inactivity and thereby restore sialic acid synthesis. Sialic acid levels were monitored by immunoblot and high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Results: The HEK-293 GNE-knockout cells showed almost no polysialylation signal (immunoblot) and a reduced overall (–71%) N-acetylneuraminic acid (Neu5Ac) level (HPLC) relative to total protein and normalized to wild type level. Supplementation of GNE-deficient HEK-293 cells with 2 mM ManNAc can restore polysialylation and free intracellular sialic acid levels to wild type levels. The addition of 1 mM ManNAc is sufficient to restore the membrane-bound sialic acid level. Conclusions: Although the mechanism behind this needs further investigation and although it remains unclear why adding ManNAc to GNE-deficient cells is sufficient to elevate polysialylation back to wild type levels – since this substance is also converted by the GNE, all of this might yet prove helpful in the development of an appropriate therapy for GNEM.

description: We test whether the Tinker & Chen model of MgII absorption due to the gaseous halo around a galaxy can reproduce absorption in quasar pairs (both lensed and physical) and lensed triples and quads from the literature. These quasars exhibit absorption from a total of 38 MgII systems spanning z=0.043 - 2.066 with mean redshift =1.099 and weighted mean rest-frame equivalent width of 0.87 Ang. Using the Tinker & Chen model to generate simulated sight-lines, we marginalize the unknown parameters of the absorbing galaxies: dark matter halo mass, impact parameter, and azimuthal angle on the sky. We determine the ability of the model to statistically reproduce the observed variation in MgII absorption strength between paired sight-lines for different values of the gas covering fraction f_c and the characteristic length scale ell_c, within which the variation in absorption equivalent widths between sight-lines exponentially decreases. We find a best-fit f_c=0.60 \pm 0.15 and ell_c<8/h_70 kpc (1σconfidence limits), with smaller f_c allowed at larger ell_c. At 99.7% confidence, we are able to rule out f_c>0.87 for all values of ell_c and the region where ell_c<1.0/h_70 kpc and f_c<0.3.

description: This paper examines the role of strategic sensitivity in organisational agility, a concept that has gained significant attention, especially during the COVID-19 pandemic. It explores the importance of strategic sensitivity in enabling businesses to detect and respond to early signs of change in their environment. Drawing on a review of existing literature, we define strategic sensitivity and highlight key relational characteristics, including agility, rapid responsiveness, and resource fluidity. We demonstrate how organisations with high strategic sensitivity were able to adapt to challenges such as supply chain disruptions and shifts in consumer behaviour. A central contribution of this paper is the identification of strategic agility as a crucial factor for competitive advantage. We conclude by discussing the implications for practice and policy, offering  recommendations for further research to expand the understanding of strategic sensitivity across different business contexts.
The Spin Foam Approach to Quantum Gravity

description: This article reviews the present status of the spin foam approach to the quantization of gravity. Special attention is payed to the pedagogical presentation of the recently introduced new models for four dimensional quantum gravity. The models are motivated by a suitable implementation of the path integral quantization of the Plebanski formulation of gravity on a simplicial regularization. The article also includes a self-contained treatment of the 2+1 gravity. The simple nature of the latter provides the basis and a perspective for the analysis of both conceptual and technical issues that remain open in four dimensions.

description: Formation of a pseudoknot in the conserved RNA core domain in the ribonucleoprotein human telomerase is required for function. In vitro experiments show that the pseudoknot (PK) is in equilibrium with an extended hairpin (HP) structure. We use molecular simulations of a coarse-grained model, which reproduces most of the salient features of the experimental melting profiles of PK and HP, to show that crowding enhances the stability of PK relative to HP in the wild type and in a mutant associated with dyskeratosis congenita. In monodisperse suspensions, small crowding particles increase the stability of compact structures to a greater extent than larger crowders. If the sizes of crowders in a binary mixture are smaller than the unfolded RNA, the increase in melting temperature due to the two components is additive. In a ternary mixture of crowders that are larger than the unfolded RNA, which mimics the composition of ribosome, large enzyme complexes and proteins in E. coli, the marginal increase in stability is entirely determined by the smallest component. We predict that crowding can restore partially telomerase activity in mutants, which dramatically decrease the PK stability.

description: The application of traditional medicine by humans for the treatment of ailments as well as improving the quality of life far outdates recorded history. To date, a significant percentage of humans, especially those living in developing/underprivileged communities still rely on traditional medicine for primary healthcare needs. In silico-based methods have been shown to play a pivotal role in modern pharmaceutical drug discovery processes. The application of these methods in identifying natural product (NP)-based hits has been successful. This is very much observed in many research set-ups that use rationally in silico-based methods in combination with experimental validation techniques. The combination has rendered the use of in silico-based approaches even more popular and successful in the investigation of NPs. However, identifying and proposing novel NP-based hits for experimental validation comes with several challenges such as the availability of compounds by suppliers, the huge task of separating pure compounds from complex mixtures, the quantity of samples available from the natural source to be tested, not to mention the potential ecological impact if the natural source is exhausted. Because most peer-reviewed publications are biased towards “positive results”, these challenges are generally not discussed in publications. In this review, we highlight and discuss these challenges. The idea is to give interested scientists in this field of research an idea of what they can come across or should be expecting as well as prompting them on how to avoid or fix these issues.

description: Extract, Transform, Load (ETL) is an integral part of Data Warehousing (DW) implementation. The commercial tools that are used for this purpose captures lot of execution trace in form of various log files with plethora of information. However there has been hardly any initiative where any proactive analyses have been done on the ETL logs to improve their efficiency. In this paper we utilize outlier detection technique to find the processes varying most from the group in terms of execution trace. As our experiment was carried on actual production processes, any outlier we would consider as a signal rather than a noise. To identify the input parameters for the outlier detection algorithm we employ a survey among developer community with varied mix of experience and expertise. We use simple text parsing to extract these features from the logs, as shortlisted from the survey. Subsequently we applied outlier detection technique (Clustering based) on the logs. By this process we reduced our domain of detailed analysis from 500 logs to 44 logs (8 Percentage). Among the 5 outlier cluster, 2 of them are genuine concern, while the other 3 figure out because of the huge number of rows involved.
