description: We use molecular dynamics (MD) to study the kinetics of surface enrichment (SE) in a stable homogeneous mixture (AB), placed in contact with a surface which preferentially attracts A. The SE profiles show a characteristic double-exponential behavior with two length scales: ξ_-, which rapidly saturates to its equilibrium value, and ξ_+, which diverges as a power-law with time (ξ_+ \sim t^θ). We find that hydrodynamic effects result in a crossover of the growth exponent from θ\simeq 0.5 to θ\simeq 1.0. There is also a corresponding crossover in the growth dynamics of the SE-layer thickness.

description: Mobile communication towers represent a relatively new but growing contributor to the total radio leakage associated with planet Earth. We investigate the overall power contribution of mobile communication towers to the Earthś radio leakage budget, as seen from a selection of different nearby stellar systems. We created a model of this leakage using publicly available data of mobile tower locations. The model grids the planet's surface into small, computationally manageable regions, assuming a simple integrated transmission pattern for the mobile antennas. In this model, these mobile tower regions rise and set as the Earth rotates. In this way, a dynamic power spectrum of the Earth was determined, summed over all cellular frequency bands. We calculated this dynamic power spectrum from three different viewing points, HD 95735, Barnard star, and Alpha Centauri A. Our preliminary results demonstrate that the peak power leaking into space from mobile towers is $\sim 4$GW. This is associated with LTE mobile tower technology emanating from the East Coast of China as viewed from HD 95735. We demonstrate that the mobile tower leakage is periodic, direction dependent, and could not currently be detected by a nearby civilization located within 10 light years of the Earth, using instrumentation with a sensitivity similar to the Green Bank Telescope. We plan to extend our model to include more powerful 5G mobile systems, radar installations, ground based uplinks (including the Deep Space Network), and various types of satellite services, including low Earth orbit constellations such as Starlink and OneWeb.

On Non-Canonical Kinetic Terms and the Tilt of the Power Spectrum

description: We argue that in models of inflation with two scalar fields and non-canonical kinetic terms there is a possibility of obtaining a red tilt of the power spectrum of curvature perturbations from noncanonicality-induced interactions between the curvature and isocurvature perturbations. We describe an extremely simple model realizing this idea, study numerically its predictions for the perturbations and discuss applications in realistic scenarios of inflation. We discuss to what extent in this model the scale of the inflationary potential can be decoupled from the amplitude of the density fluctuations.

description: This is the second of five papers that construct an isomorphism between the Seiberg-Witten Floer homology and the Heegaard Floer homology of a given compact, oriented 3-manifold. The isomorphism is given as a composition of three isomorphisms; the first of these relates a version of embedded contact homology on an an auxillary manifold to the Heegaard Floer homology on the original. This paper describes this auxilliary manifold, its geometry, and the relationship between the generators of the embedded contact homology chain complex and those of the Heegaard Floer chain complex. The pseudoholomorphic curves that define the differential on the embedded contact homology chain complex are also described here as a first step to relate the differential on the latter complex with that on the Heegaard Floer complex.

description: To examine the effect of a once-a-week group physiotherapy session in addition to a once-a-month individual physiotherapy treatment, in comparison to a monthly individual physiotherapy treatment. Fifty children and adolescents aged 10-18 years with poor back posture, some of whom had LBP, met individually with a physiotherapist once a month. The intervention group received an additional once-a-week group physiotherapy session for 12 weeks. Thorax curve angle, postural behavior, and low back pain (LBP) were measured before and after intervention. The thorax curve angle decreased from 39.2 ± 9.3 to 28.2 ± 6.8 (p A lower-frequency individual physiotherapy treatment for 12 weeks proved as beneficial as the same program with an additional higher-frequency group physiotherapy in improving thorax curve angle and LBP. However, the higher-frequency group physiotherapy in addition to the lower-frequency individual treatment was significantly more effective in improving postural behavior and adherence to treatment.
Homogeneous photospheric parameters and C abundances in G and K nearby stars with and without planets

description: We present a determination of photospheric parameters and C abundances for a sample of 172 G and K dwarfs, subgiants, and giants with and without detected planets in the solar neighbourhood. The analysis was based on high S/N and high resolution spectra observed with the ELODIE spectrograph, and for which the observational data was publicly available. We intend to contribute precise and homogeneous C abundances in studies that compare the behaviour of light elements in stars, hosting planets or not. This will bring new arguments to the discussion of possible anomalies that have been suggested and will contribute to a better understanding of different planetary formation process. The photospheric parameters were computed through the excitation potential, equivalent widths, and ionisation equilibrium of Fe lines selected in the spectra. C abundances were derived from spectral synthesis applied to prominent molecular head bands of C_2 Swan (5128 and 5165) and to a C atomic line (5380.3). The distribution of [C/Fe] vs. [Fe/H] shows no difference in the behaviour of planet-host stars in comparison with stars for which no planet was detected, for both dwarf and giant subsamples. This result is in agreement with the hypothesis of primordial origin for the chemical abundances presently observed instead of self-enrichment during the planetary system formation and evolution. Additionally, giants are clearly depleted in [C/Fe] (~0.14 dex) when compared with dwarfs, which is probably related to evolution-induced mixing of H-burning products in the envelope of evolved stars. Subgiants, although in small number, seems to follow the same C abundance distribution as dwarfs. We also analysed the kinematics of the sample stars that, in majority, are members of the Galaxy's thin disc. Finally, comparisons with other analogue studies were performed and, within the uncertainties, showed good agreement.

description: We establish a lower bound on the noncoherent capacity pre-log of a temporally correlated Rayleigh block-fading single-input multiple-output (SIMO) channel. Our result holds for arbitrary rank Q of the channel correlation matrix, arbitrary block-length L > Q, and arbitrary number of receive antennas R, and includes the result in Morgenshtern et al. (2010) as a special case. It is well known that the capacity pre-log for this channel in the single-input single-output (SISO) case is given by 1-Q/L, where Q/L is the penalty incurred by channel uncertainty. Our result reveals that this penalty can be reduced to 1/L by adding only one receive antenna, provided that L \geq 2Q - 1 and the channel correlation matrix satisfies mild technical conditions. The main technical tool used to prove our result is Hironaka's celebrated theorem on resolution of singularities in algebraic geometry.

description: Ground-based, all-sky astronomical surveys are imposed with an inevitable day-night cadence that can introduce aliases in period-finding methods. We examined four different methods -- three from the literature and a new one that we developed -- that remove aliases to improve the accuracy of period-finding algorithms. We investigate the effectiveness of these methods in decreasing the fraction of aliased period solutions by applying them to the Zwicky Transient Facility (ZTF) and the LSST Solar System Products Data Base (SSPDB) asteroid datasets. We find that the VanderPlas method had the worst accuracy for each survey. The mask and our newly proposed window method yields the highest accuracy when averaged across both datasets. However, the Monte Carlo method had the highest accuracy for the ZTF dataset, while for SSPDB, it had lower accuracy than the baseline where none of these methods are applied. Where possible, detailed de-aliasing studies should be carried out for every survey with a unique cadence.

description: To evaluate the effectiveness of a multimodal exercise program incorporating plyometric and balance training on muscle strength and postural stability in children with spastic hemiplegic cerebral palsy (SHCP). A total of 57 children with SHCP were enrolled in the study and randomly allocated into three treatment-based groups: plyometric exercises (PLYO group; n = 19), balance exercises (BAL group, n = 19), and combined plyometric and balance exercises (PLYO-BAL group; n = 19). The maximum isometric muscle strength (IMSmax) and postural stability [anterior-posterior stability index (AP-SI), mediolateral stability index (ML-SI), and overall stability index (O-SI)] were measured pre- and post-intervention. By applying the intention-to-treat analysis, the PLYO-BAL group showed greater post-treatment IMSmax than the PLYO and BAL groups for the quadriceps (p=.03 and p=.0002 respectively), hamstrings (p=.018 and pp=.006 and ppp=.0001 respectively), ML-SI (p=.001 and p=.015 respectively), and O-SI (p=.011 and p=.04 respectively). Incorporation of plyometric and balance exercises in a multimodal rehabilitation program could be an important consideration for enhancing muscle strength and boosting postural stability in children with SHCP.

description: The subject of the work is the stabilization of two-dimensional (2D) two-component (vector) solitons, in media with the attractive cubic nonlinearity, against the collapse by a linear lattice (LL, which is induced by a periodic modulation of the refractive index in optics, or created as an optical lattice in BEC), or by a nonlinear lattice (NL, induced by a periodic modulation of the nonlinearity coefficient). We demonstrate that, due to the XPM (cross-phase-modulation) coupling between the components, the LL or NL acting on a single component is sufficient for the stabilization of vector solitons, that include a component for which the self-focusing medium is uniform. In the case of the LL, the vector solitons are stable almost in their entire existence domain, while the NL can only stabilize the solitons in which the component affected by the lattice carries the norm which is comparable to, or larger than the norm of the component in the uniform medium.

description: As various physiotherapeutic approaches are available to improve either motor or non-motor symptoms, the study was conducted for evaluating the effectiveness of Institution based Rehabilitation protocol to improve quality of life in patients with Parkinson’s Disease (IRQOL-PD) to focus on both types of symptoms simultaneously. The non-randomized controlled trial pilot study recruited 42 participants with Parkinson’s disease (age between 35-80 years) for 5 weeks of treatment sessions to evaluate the validity, reliability, and effectiveness of the designed protocol. The Unified Parkinson’s Disease Rating Scale (UPDRS) and Hoehn and Yahr scale (H&Y scale) were used as outcome measures. The IRQOL-PD with content validity index (0.9), intra-rater reliability (Intra-class Co-relation Coefficient = 1 and Cronbach’s alpha = 1) and inter-reliability (Pearson correlation coefficient > 0.90 and <0.50 for UPDRS and H&Y respectively) established the statistical and clinical improvement in experimental group related to UPDRS grading (p-value = 0.008). IRQoL – PD protocol was effective to delay the progression of disease without any requirement of special equipment.

Pro-inflammatory platelet factor 4 (CXCL4/PF4) signaling in rheumatoid arthritis
Creators: name: To, Jeffrey
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2022

description: Background: Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is an autoimmune disease characterized by chronic inflammation of the joint tissues caused by activation of locally recruited immune cells. Within the joints, the resident fibroblast-like synoviocytes (FLS) play an important role in RAassociated tissue degradation in part due to their secretion of pro-inflammatory cytokines and tissue-degrading matrix metalloproteinases (MMPs) into the synovium, as well as the cells’ ability to invade nearby structures. Platelets also function as immune cells that contain and secrete pro-inflammatory molecules but their role in RA is not understood. Of particular interest is platelet factor 4 (PF4), a major constituent of platelet alpha-granules. Methods: Cultured SW982 cells were used as a model for FLS. Cells were cultured in the presence or absence of recombinant PF4. The secretion of MMP-1 (interstitial collagenase) was measured by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). Cell adhesion was determined by wash-off assays. Results: Cells cultured with recombinant PF4 secreted more MMP-1 relative to controls. PF4 treatment also increased the FLS production of fibronectin, a matrix adhesion molecule. PF4- treated cells also exhibited greater adhesion and spreading. Conclusion: I conclude that PF4 contributes to an invasive/destructive phenotype in FLS, by promoting MMP-1 release and increased cell adhesion.

description: We wanted to have a more substantiated idea about the extreme values which are possible in patients not dying or being moribund. for nine regular analytes the five most extreme results registered between 2014 and 2018 in our database were searched. Results had to have been confirmed by multiple analyses in different samples. Patients should have lived at least 28 days after the extreme analyte value was observed. Patient diagnoses and symptoms were checked to understand the pathology and apparent consequences of the extreme values. most extreme values (lowest and highest; mmol/L): sodium 100/178, potassium 1.2/9.8, chloride 58/138, total calcium 1.02/4.98, ionized calcium 0.37/2.44, magnesium 0.07/3.31, phosphate <0.1/7.3, pH <6.8/7.81, hemoglobin 1.3/14.9 in non-newborns; not determined/16.4 in newborns. All extreme values deviated 7 s.d. or more from the means. Patients obviously can survive rather deviant analyte values.

description: This study focuses on the microstructure's evolution upon different aging conditions of a high-strength low-density steel with a composition of Fe-28Mn-9Al-1C. The steel is hot-rolled, subsequently quenched without any solution treatment, and then aged under different conditions. The microstructure of the samples was studied by means of Scanning Electron Microscopy, Electron Backscatter Diffraction, and Transmission Electron Microscopy. The aging treatment leads to the formation of an ordered face-centered cubic L12 phase named k-carbide. This study aims to characterize the formation and growth of these k-carbides qualitatively and quantitatively under different aging conditions. Then, an effort is made to relate the fraction and size of this phase with the tensile properties of the steel to determine the optimal aging conditions that will lead to a good combination of strength and ductility. It has been found that the k-carbides start to form intragranularly through concentration fluctuations of aluminum and manganese inside the austenite grain. Then, with the process of spinodal decomposition, they grow in size coherently with the matrix. During this process, the strength and hardness of the steel increase while maintaining a relatively high elongation. The best combination of high strength and ductility was achieved at the aging condition of 8 h at 550 degrees Celsius with an ultimate tensile strength up to 1157 MPa and total elongation of 51%. Increasing the aging temperature and time, k-carbides start to form intergranularly, lose their coherency with the matrix and severely compromise the hardness and strength. The shearing of the carbides during deformation is also studied.

description: Software development effort estimation is one of the most major activities in software project management. A number of models have been proposed to construct a relationship between software size and effort; however we still have problems for effort estimation. This is because project data, available in the initial stages of project is often incomplete, inconsistent, uncertain and unclear. The need for accurate effort estimation in software industry is still a challenge. Artificial Neural Network models are more suitable in such situations. The present paper is concerned with developing software effort estimation models based on artificial neural networks. The models are designed to improve the performance of the network that suits to the COCOMO Model. Artificial Neural Network models are created using Radial Basis and Generalized Regression. A case study based on the COCOMO81 database compares the proposed neural network models with the Intermediate COCOMO. The results were analyzed using five different criterions MMRE, MARE, VARE, Mean BRE and Prediction. It is observed that the Radial Basis Neural Network provided better results
Characterization of the role of grainy head's 5'UTR uORFs in regulating translation during Drosophila melanogaster development
Creators: name: Kirby, Mathew Pattee
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2020

description: Precise control of the levels and spatiotemporal domains of protein synthesis is fundamental to cellular processes. Regulation of protein synthesis largely occurs at the rate-limiting step of translation initiation in which the translation start site is selected by the scanning ribosomal pre-initiation complex (PIC) and its associated initiation factors. Upstream open reading frames (uORFs) are prevalent regulatory elements located in the 5’ untranslated regions (5’UTR) of approximately 50% of mammalian transcripts. Generally, uORFs are viewed as constitutive repressors of translation of the downstream coding sequence (CDS) by sequestering ribosomes. Recent genome-wide studies have revealed that uORFs have widespread regulatory functions in different biological contexts, however our understanding of the roles played by uORFs is still in its infancy. In Drosophila melanogaster, the spatial and temporal expression of the transcription factor grainy head (grh) must be tightly controlled to ensure proper epithelial and central nervous system development. Intriguingly, grh’s eight mRNA isoforms display uORF-containing 5’UTRs ranging from 1 to 24 uORFs. To test for a role of these uORFs in Grh function, this thesis attempts to characterize the role of grh-RJ’s eleven uORFs in modulating the downstream CDS translation in order to fine-tune Grh’s spatiotemporal expression throughout Drosophila development. In this study, both in vitro translation assays and in vivo genetic analyses were used to analyze the regulatory role of grh-RJ’s uORFs on the downstream CDS translation. Our in vitro results showed that grh-RJ’s eleven uORFs severely repressed translation of the downstream CDS in translation extracts. Meanwhile, our transgenic in vivo results showed that that grh-RJ’s uORFs spatially restricted and repressed reporter expression in the Drosophila embryo. In general, we found that the role of grh-RJ’s uORFs is to repress translation of the downstream CDS, including restricting the spatial expression of Grh during Drosophila development. Together with the widespread prevalence of uORFs among species, this research suggests an extensive role of uORFs in regulating the level and spatiotemporal expression of proteins, which will likely contribute greatly to a fundamentally novel understanding of biological systems.

description: In this paper we estimate the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope (LSST) yield of eclipsing binary stars, which will survey ~20,000 square degrees of the southern sky during the period of 10 years in 6 photometric passbands to r ~ 24.5. We generate a set of 10,000 eclipsing binary light curves sampled to the LSST time cadence across the whole sky, with added noise as a function of apparent magnitude. This set is passed to the Analysis of Variance (AoV) period finder to assess the recoverability rate for the periods, and the successfully phased light curves are passed to the artificial intelligence-based pipeline EBAI to assess the recoverability rate in terms of the eclipsing binaries' physical and geometric parameters. We find that, out of ~24 million eclipsing binaries observed by LSST with S/N>10 in mission life-time, ~28% or 6.7 million can be fully characterized by the pipeline. Of those, ~25% or 1.7 million will be double-lined binaries, a true treasure trove for stellar astrophysics.

DNS Privacy with Speed? Evaluating DNS over QUIC and its Impact on Web Performance

description: Over the last decade, Web traffic has significantly shifted towards HTTPS due to an increased awareness for privacy. However, DNS traffic is still largely unencrypted, which allows user profiles to be derived from plaintext DNS queries. While DNS over TLS (DoT) and DNS over HTTPS (DoH) address this problem by leveraging transport encryption for DNS, both protocols are constrained by the underlying transport (TCP) and encryption (TLS) protocols, requiring multiple round-trips to establish a secure connection. In contrast, QUIC combines the transport and cryptographic handshake into a single round-trip, which allows the recently standardized DNS over QUIC (DoQ) to provide DNS privacy with minimal latency. In the first study of its kind, we perform distributed DoQ measurements across multiple vantage points to evaluate the impact of DoQ on Web performance. We find that DoQ excels over DoH, leading to significant improvements with up to 10% faster loads for simple webpages. With increasing complexity of webpages, DoQ even catches up to DNS over UDP (DoUDP) as the cost of encryption amortizes: With DoQ being only ~2% slower than DoUDP, encrypted DNS becomes much more appealing for the Web.

description: Recent studies show that BM25-driven dynamic index skipping can greatly accelerate MaxScore-based document retrieval based on the learned sparse representation derived by DeepImpact. This paper investigates the effectiveness of such a traversal guidance strategy during top k retrieval when using other models such as SPLADE and uniCOIL, and finds that unconstrained BM25-driven skipping could have a visible relevance degradation when the BM25 model is not well aligned with a learned weight model or when retrieval depth k is small. This paper generalizes the previous work and optimizes the BM25 guided index traversal with a two-level pruning control scheme and model alignment for fast retrieval using a sparse representation. Although there can be a cost of increased latency, the proposed scheme is much faster than the original MaxScore method without BM25 guidance while retaining the relevance effectiveness. This paper analyzes the competitiveness of this two-level pruning scheme, and evaluates its tradeoff in ranking relevance and time efficiency when searching several test datasets.

description: X-ray absorption spectroscopy (XAS) Fe K-edge spectra of the FeSex (x=1-0.8) single crystals cleaved in situ in vacuum reveal characteristic Fe 4sp states, a lattice distortion and the Se K-edge spectra point to a strong Fe 3d-Se 4p hybridization giving rise to itinerant charge carriers. A formal charge of ~1.8+ for Fe and ~2.2- for Se were evaluated from these spectra in the FeSex (x=0.88). The charge balance between Fe and Se is assigned itinerant electrons located in the Fe-Se hybridization bond. As x decreases the 4p hole count increases and a crystal structure distortion is observed that in turn causes the Fe separation in the ab plane change from 4p orbital to varying (modulating) coordination. Powder x-ray diffraction (XRD) measurements also show a slight increase in lattice parameters as x decreases (increasing Se deficiency).

We consider the wave equation of a massless scalar field in background of Kerr-Bolt spacetimes and show in the "near region", the wave equation can be reproduced by the $SL(2,R)_L \times SL(2,R)_R$ Casimir quadratic operators. Moreover, we compute the microscopic entropy of the dual CFT by Cardy formula and find a perfect match to Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of Kerr-Bolt spacetimes. The absorption cross section of a near region scalar field also matches to microscopic absorption cross section of the dual CFT.

description: Existing approaches to animatable NeRF-based head avatars are either built upon face templates or use the expression coefficients of templates as the driving signal. Despite the promising progress, their performances are heavily bound by the expression power and the tracking accuracy of the templates. In this work, we present LatentAvatar, an expressive neural head avatar driven by latent expression codes. Such latent expression codes are learned in an end-to-end and self-supervised manner without templates, enabling our method to get rid of expression and tracking issues. To achieve this, we leverage a latent head NeRF to learn the person-specific latent expression codes from a monocular portrait video, and further design a Y-shaped network to learn the shared latent expression codes of different subjects for cross-identity reenactment. By optimizing the photometric reconstruction objectives in NeRF, the latent expression codes are learned to be 3D-aware while faithfully capturing the high-frequency detailed expressions. Moreover, by learning a mapping between the latent expression code learned in shared and person-specific settings, LatentAvatar is able to perform expressive reenactment between different subjects. Experimental results show that our LatentAvatar is able to capture challenging expressions and the subtle movement of teeth and even eyeballs, which outperforms previous state-of-the-art solutions in both quantitative and qualitative comparisons.

description: We are leading a comprehensive multi-waveband monitoring program of 34 gamma-ray bright blazars designed to locate the emission regions of blazars from radio to gamma-ray frequencies. The "maps" are anchored by sequences of images in both total and polarized intensity obtained with the VLBA at an angular resolution of ~ 0.1 milliarcseconds. The time-variable linear polarization at radio to optical wavelengths and radio to gamma-ray light curves allow us to specify the locations of flares relative to bright stationary features seen in the images and to infer the geometry of the magnetic field in different regions of the jet. Our data reveal that some flares occur simultaneously at different wavebands and others are only seen at some of the frequencies. The flares are often triggered by a superluminal knot passing through the stationary "core" on the VLBA images. Other flares occur upstream or even parsecs downstream of the core.
