description: The harmonic Kanzaki-Krivoglaz-Khachaturyan model of strain-induced interaction is generalized to concentrated size-mismatched alloys and adapted to first-principles calculations. The configuration dependence of both Kanzaki forces and force constants is represented by real-space cluster expansions that can be constructed based on the calculated forces. The model is implemented for the fcc lattice and applied to Cu$_{1-x}$Au$_x$ and Fe$_{1-x}$Pt$_x$ alloys for concentrations $x=0.25$, 0.5, and 0.75. The asymmetry between the $3d$ and $5d$ elements leads to large quadratic terms in the occupation-number expansion of the Kanzaki forces and thereby to strongly non-pairwise long-range interaction. The main advantage of the full configuration-dependent lattice deformation model is its ability to capture this singular many-body interaction. The roles of ordering striction and anharmonicity in Cu-Au and Fe-Pt alloys are assessed. Although the harmonic force constants defined with respect to the unrelaxed lattice are unsuitable for the calculation of the vibrational entropies, the phonon spectra for ordered and disordered alloys are found to be in good agreement with experimental data. The model is further adapted to concentration wave analysis and Monte Carlo simulations by means of an auxiliary multi-parametric real-space cluster expansion, which is used to find the ordering temperatures. Good agreement with experiment is found for all systems except CuAu$_3$ (due to the known failure of the generalized gradient approximation) and FePt$_3$, where the discrepancy is likely due to the neglect of magnetic disorder.

description: The results of x-ray diffraction (XRD) studies on 0.65Bi(Ni1/2Ti1/2)O3-0.35PbTiO3 solid solution poled at various electric field is presented. After poling, significant value of planar electromechanical coupling coefficient (kP) is observed for this composition having cubic structure in unpoled state. The cubic structure of 0.65Bi(Ni1/2Ti1/2)O3-0.35PbTiO3 transforms to monoclinic structure with space group Pm for the poling field greater than equal to 5kV/cm. Large c-axis microscopic lattice strain (1.6 %) is achieved at 30 kV/cm poling field. The variation of the c-axis strain and unit cell volume with poling field show a drastic jump similar to that observed for strain versus electric field curve in (1-x)Pb(Mg1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPbTiO3 and (1-x)Pb(Zn1/3Nb2/3)O3-xPbTiO3.

description: The ALICE experiment at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) proposes major detector upgrades to fully exploit the increase of the luminosity of the LHC in RUN~3 and to extend the physics reach for rare probes at low transverse momentum. The Time Projection Chamber (TPC) is one of the main tracking and PID devices in the central barrel of ALICE. The maximum trigger rate of the TPC is currently limited to about 3.5 kHz by the operation of a gating grid system. In order to make full use of the luminosity in RUN 3, the TPC is foreseen to be operated in an ungated mode with continuous readout. The existing MWPC readout will be replaced by a Micro-Pattern Gaseous Detector (MPGD) based readout, which provides intrinsic ion capture capability without gating. Extensive detector R\&D employing Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) and Micro-Mesh Gaseous detector (Micromegas) technologies, and simulation studies to advance the techniques for the corrections of space-charge distortions have been performed since 2012. In this paper, the expected detector performance and the status of the R\&D program to achieve this ambitious goal are described.

description: Resumen Para hablar de la lactasa primero debemos entender qué es una enzima, para qué sirve y cuáles son sus beneficios en el ser humano. En los últimos años el conocimiento que se tiene respecto a la capacidad catalítica de las enzimas ha permitido la aparición de nuevos productos y procesos como la mejora de procesos, propiedades físicas para así poder procesarlo y mejorar propiedades organolépticas de diferentes productos. Las enzimas son las proteínas que tienen como principal objetivo provocar cambios químicos en todo el cuerpo, cabe aclarar que estos cambios químicos son característicos pues son funcionales para distintas acciones corporales debido a que en nuestro cuerpo existen diversas reacciones químicas diarias que nos permiten seguir con nuestras vidas. La lactasa es una de estas enzimas que provocan estos cambios, se encuentra al borde de vellosidades del propio intestino delgado, es la encargada de hidrolizar la lactosa (unión de glucosa con galactosa) en el intestino delgado, tiene la finalidad de absorber, atraer líquidos y electrolitos para que ingresen a los intestinos y así mantener el equilibrio osmótico (conexión entre el fluido intracelular y su medio externo) Tiene diferentes beneficios para la salud además de ser la encargada de hidrolizar la lactosa en el intestino delgado. Digiere la lactosa correctamente esto significa que tu cuerpo olvidará todos los síntomas típicos de una persona que no puede tolerar los principales compuestos de los productos lácteos, evita la probabilidad de padecer colon irritable, aminora la acumulación de gases y procesar los lácteos. Es importante este proceso de descomposición porque de no ser por él, las bacterias producirían ácidos orgánicos e hidrógeno. Estos gases pueden causar hinchazón, flatulencia y dolor abdominal, entre otros síntomas. En el ámbito industrial tiene algunos propósitos con fines tecnológicos como cristalización evitando la grumosidad en ciertos tipos de leches. La elaboración de la presente infografía se basa en los trabajos abajo citados [1-4].

description: Three-dimensional instability of axisymmetric flow in a rotating disk - cylinder configuration is studied numerically for the case of low cylinders with the height/radius aspect ratio varying between 1 and 0.1. A complete stability diagram for the transition from steady axisymmetric to oscillatory three-dimensional flow regime is reported. A good agreement with experimental results is obtained. It is shown that critical azimuthal wavenumber grows with the decrease of the aspect ratio, reaching the value of 19 at the aspect ratio 0.1. It is argued that the observed instability cannot be described as resulting from a Bödewadt flow or from a boundary layer only. Other reasons that can destabilize the flow are discussed.

description: We report the magnetic susceptibility and the low-temperature specific heat of a double perovskite compound, Sr2CuTeO6, which is expected as the spin-1/2 square-lattice Heisenberg antiferromagnet with nearest-neighbor J1 and next-nearest-neighbor J2 exchange interactions. The specific heat exhibits a sharp lambda-like anomaly at TN = 4.8 K indicative of magnetic ordering, which is much lower than those in isostructural A2CuMO6 with A = Ba, Sr and M = W, Mo. This indicates the strong suppression of magnetic ordering in Sr2CuTeO6. We estimate the exchange constant J1/kB ~ 80 K and J2/J1 < 0.07 from magnetic susceptibility data using Pade approximation of high temperature expansion and quantum Monte Carlo method. The strong suppression of magnetic ordering in Sr2CuTeO6 should be ascribed to the weekness of the interlayer exchange.

description: This study aims to determine the research mapping regarding the Non Performing Financing (NPF) ratio in Islamic and Conventional Banking using a mix-method approach, namely the VOSviewer bibliometric study and literature review. Data analysis techniques include: (1) mapping the distribution of journal publications around the NPF ratio; (2) mapping the results of the VOSviewer bibliometric visualization around the NPF ratio based on the number of clusters and their items; and (3) mapping research topics around the NPF ratio using a literature review study. The results showed that: (1) based on the distribution of journal publications, there were 576 journal publications regarding the NPF ratio; (2) based on the mapping of the VOSviewer bibliometric study, the network visualization results around the NPF ratio are divided into 4 clusters and 178 topic items; (3) based on the mapping of literature review studies, there are 32 topics around the influence of the NPF ratio and 49 topics about the determinants of the NPF ratio. The implications and contributions of this research are to map research topics around NPF ratios in Islamic and Conventional Banking which are often or rarely researched by researchers so that they can be a reference for subsequent researchers.

description: This thesis investigates the complicated nature of media representation, elaborating upon two points. One is to question the notion of minority in media representation. By investigating representations in two popular films—Falling Down (1992) and Flawless (1999), it demonstrates the limitations of the universal notion of minority in media representation. The other point is to illustrate the complicated nature of media representation resulting from multiple identities of social groups, drawing on the theory of intersectionality. Through demonstrating the intersectional conflicts of the two texts’ representation of sexuality, class, gender, and race, this thesis argues that media representation should be explored in a holistic and inclusive way in which dynamics of power relations in representations are articulated more accurately and subtly

description: OBJECTIVES: The goal of this study was to estimate the population burden of heart failure and the influence of modifiable risk factors.

BACKGROUND: Heart failure is a common, costly, and fatal disorder, yet few studies have evaluated the population-level influence of modifiable risk factors.

METHODS: From 14,709 ARIC (Atherosclerosis Risk in Communities) study participants, we estimated incidence rate differences (IRD) for the association between 5 modifiable risk factors (cigarette smoking, diabetes, elevated low-density lipoproteins, hypertension, and obesity) and heart failure. Potential impact fractions were used to measure expected changes in the heart failure incidence assuming achievement of a 5% proportional decrement in the prevalence of each risk factor.

RESULTS: Over an average of 17.6 years of follow-up, 1 in 3 African American and 1 in 4 Caucasian participants were hospitalized with heart failure, defined as the first hospitalization with International Classification of Diseases, Ninth Revision discharge codes of 428.x. Of the 5 modifiable risk factors, the largest IRD was observed for diabetes, which was associated with 1,058 (95% confidence interval [CI]: 787 to 1,329) and 660 (95% CI: 514 to 805) incident hospitalizations of heart failure/100,000 person-years among African-American and Caucasian participants, respectively. A 5% proportional reduction in the prevalence of diabetes would result in approximately 53 and 33 fewer incident heart failure hospitalizations per 100,000 person-years in African-American and Caucasian ARIC participants, respectively. When applied to U.S. populations, this reduction may prevent approximately 30,000 incident cases of heart failure annually.

CONCLUSIONS: Modest decrements in the prevalence of modifiable heart failure risk factors such as diabetes may substantially decrease the incidence of this major disease.

description: Abstracts derived from biomedical literature possess distinct domain-specific characteristics, including specialised writing styles and biomedical terminologies, which necessitate a deep understanding of the related literature. As a result, existing language models struggle to generate technical summaries that are on par with those produced by biomedical experts, given the absence of domain-specific background knowledge. This paper aims to enhance the performance of language models in biomedical abstractive summarisation by aggregating knowledge from external papers cited within the source article. We propose a novel attention-based citation aggregation model that integrates domain-specific knowledge from citation papers, allowing neural networks to generate summaries by leveraging both the paper content and relevant knowledge from citation papers. Furthermore, we construct and release a large-scale biomedical summarisation dataset that serves as a foundation for our research. Extensive experiments demonstrate that our model outperforms state-of-the-art approaches and achieves substantial improvements in abstractive biomedical text summarisation.

description: How often do we try to get the best result with the least effort, spend as little time as possible to perform a task or make the most of the resources available in the workplace? In everyday life, the word ”optimize” is therefore often present. In particular, the optimization has as its object the study and the development of quantitative methodologies and tools for the solution of decision problems. This is a discipline born in the military field about 80 years ago. Over the years, it has found application in several sectors such as logistics and production, finance and telecommunications. Currently it has become an indispensable tool for supporting decision-making processes. The problems faced are typically those in which decisions have to be made on the use of resources available in limited quantities in order to respect an assigned set of constraints, maximizing, for example, the benefit obtainable from the use of the resources themselves...

description: We use maximal entropy random walk (MERW) to study the trapping problem in dendrimers modeled by Cayley trees with a deep trap fixed at the central node. We derive an explicit expression for the mean first passage time from any node to the trap, as well as an exact formula for the average trapping time (ATT), which is the average of the source-to-trap mean first passage time over all non-trap starting nodes. Based on the obtained closed-form solution for ATT, we further deduce an upper bound for the leading behavior of ATT, which is the fourth power of $\ln N$, where $N$ is the system size. This upper bound is much smaller than the ATT of trapping depicted by unbiased random walk in Cayley trees, the leading scaling of which is a linear function of $N$. These results show that MERW can substantially enhance the efficiency of trapping performed in dendrimers.

description: Highly multiplexed spectroscopic surveys have changed the astronomy landscape in recent years. However, these surveys are limited to low and medium spectral resolution. High spectral resolution spectroscopy is often photon starved and will benefit from a large telescope aperture. Multiplexed high-resolution surveys require a wide field of view and a large aperture for a suitable large number of bright targets. This requirement introduces several practical difficulties, especially for large telescopes, such as the future ELTs. Some of the challenges are the need for a wide field atmospheric dispersion corrector and to deal with the curved non-telecentric focal plane. Here, we present a concept of Multi-Object Spectroscopy (MOS) mode for TMT High-Resolution Optical Spectrograph (HROS), we have designed an atmospheric dispersion corrector for individual objects that fit inside a fiber positioner. We present the ZEMAX design and the performance of the atmospheric dispersion corrector for all elevations accessible by TMT.

description: Major scholars in the field, based on a 3-day consensus, created an in-depth review of current knowledge on the role of diet in CVD, the changing global food system and global dietary patterns, and potential policy solutions. Evidence from different countries, age/race/ethnicity/socioeconomic groups suggest the health effects studies of foods, macronutrients, and dietary patterns on CVD appear to be far more consistent though regional knowledge gaps are highlighted. There are large gaps in knowledge about the association of macronutrients to CVD in low- and middle-income countries (LMIC), particularly linked with dietary patterns are reviewed. Our understanding of foods and macronutrients in relationship to CVD is broadly clear; however major gaps exist both in dietary pattern research and ways to change diets and food systems. Based on the current evidence, the traditional Mediterranean-type diet, including plant foods/emphasizing plant protein sources, provides a well-tested healthy dietary pattern to reduce CVD.

description: Model checking of strategic abilities is a notoriously hard problem, even more so in the realistic case of agents with imperfect information. Assume-guarantee reasoning can be of great help here, providing a way to decompose the complex problem into a small set of exponentially easier subproblems. In this paper, we propose two schemes for assume-guarantee verification of alternating-time temporal logic with imperfect information. We prove the soundness of both schemes, and discuss their completeness. We illustrate the method by examples based on known benchmarks, and show experimental results that demonstrate the practical benefits of the approach.

description: The aim of this work has been to obtain bionanocomposites with a degradation rate which can be modulated in time, so that it can be possible to decide a priori the time after which the material will disappear in a given environment. At the same time, the material should preserve its properties during processing. Several mixtures of PLA (4032D, 4060D) and LDH of cation composition Mg2Al organo-modified with organic acids (succinc, fumaric and ascorbic acid) have been obtained by extrusion. From the extruded materials there were obtained films by compression molding; these films were then subjected to hydrolysis tests. The experimental results show that for samples loaded with LDH-organic acid (in particular LDH-succinic acid), there is an increase in the time needed for degradation, and a decrease in this time for samples loaded with organic acid alone. From the selected material (PLA + LDH-succinic acid) and from pure PLA, biphasic samples (half amorphous and the other half crystalline) have been obtained by micro-injection molding. Also in this case, the experimental results show an increase for the loaded samples in the time needed for degradation compared to pure PLA both for the crystal phase and for the amorphous one, and in particular the presence of a degradation profile within the same sample is observed.

description: Phosphorene, an elemental 2D material, which is the monolayer of black phosphorus, has been mechanically exfoliated recently. In its bulk form, black phosphorus shows high carrier mobility (~10000 cm2/Vs) and a ~0.3 eV direct bandgap. Well-behaved p-type field-effect transistors with mobilities of up to 1000 cm2/Vs, as well as phototransistors, have been demonstrated on few-layer black phosphorus, showing its promise for electronics and optoelectronics applications due to its high hole mobility and thickness-dependence direct bandgap. However, p-n junctions, the basic building blocks of modern electronic and optoelectronic devices, have not yet been realized based on black phosphorus. In this paper, we demonstrate a gate tunable p-n diode based on a p-type black phosphorus/n-type monolayer MoS2 van der Waals p-n heterojunction. Upon illumination, these ultra-thin p-n diodes show a maximum photodetection responsivity of 418 mA/W at the wavelength of 633 nm, and photovoltaic energy conversion with an external quantum efficiency of 0.3%. These p-n diodes show promise for broadband photodetection and solar energy harvesting.

description: Patents are legal documents that aim at protecting inventions on the one hand and at making technical knowledge circulate on the other. Their complex style -- a mix of legal, technical, and extremely vague language -- makes their content hard to access for humans and machines and poses substantial challenges to the information retrieval community. This paper proposes an approach to automatically simplify patent text through rephrasing. Since no in-domain parallel simplification data exist, we propose a method to automatically generate a large-scale silver standard for patent sentences. To obtain candidates, we use a general-domain paraphrasing system; however, the process is error-prone and difficult to control. Thus, we pair it with proper filters and construct a cleaner corpus that can successfully be used to train a simplification system. Human evaluation of the synthetic silver corpus shows that it is considered grammatical, adequate, and contains simple sentences.

description: Stability boundaries of radial pulsations in massive stars are compared with positions of variable and non-variable blue-supergiants in the spectroscopic HR (sHR) diagram (Langer & Kudritzki 2014), whose vertical axis is $4\log T_{\rm eff}-\log g \,(= \log L/M)$. Observational data indicate that variables tend to have higher $L/M$ than non-variables in agreement with the theoretical prediction. However, many variable blue-supergiants are found to have values of $L/M$ below the theoretical stability boundary; i.e., surface gravities seem to be too high by around 0.2-0.3 dex.

description: Orientalists made serious commentary and analysis in the field of Qur'an history and the science of recitation, and then brought these studies to the agenda with works and articles. One of these studies is evaluations about the origin of the Qurra. M. Shaban, Juynboll, Norman Calder and Martin Hinds, who have written articles on the Qurra, are among them. These orientalists, who started the concept of Qurra especially with the Ridda wars, tried to present the Qurra not as people who devoted themselves to religion among Muslims and set an example for the society with their lives, but as people of low classes who were both devotees and ascetics, and took part in political and military activities pursuing self-interest. At the same time, they claimed that those who died in the Ridda wars were not real Qurra, but ahl al-qurra (villagers) from the surrounding villages, but they were called ahl al-qurra in Islamic historical sources. In this article, the views of Shaban, Juynboll, Calder and Martin Hinds on the origin, identity, and role of the Qur'an in wars and their approaches to interpreting the information in Islamic sources have been critically evaluated.

description: Background The rise of multi-morbidity constitutes a serious challenge in health and social care organisation that requires a shift from disease- towards person-centred integrated care. The aim of the current study was to develop a conceptual framework that can aid the development, implementation, description, and evaluation of integrated care programmes for multi-morbidity. Methods A scoping review and expert discussions were used to identify and structure concepts for integrated care for multi-morbidity. A search of scientific and grey literature was conducted. Discussion meetings were organised within the SELFIE research project with representatives of five stakeholder groups (5Ps): patients, partners, professionals, payers, and policy makers. Results In the scientific literature 11,641 publications were identified, 92 were included for data extraction. A draft framework was constructed that was adapted after discussion with SELFIE partners from 8 EU countries and 5P representatives. The core of the framework is the holistic understanding of the person with multi-morbidity in his or her environment. Around the core, concepts were grouped into adapted WHO components of health systems: service delivery, leadership & governance, workforce, financing, technologies & medical products, and information & research. Within each component micro, meso, and macro levels are distinguished. Conclusion The framework structures relevant concepts in integrated care for multi-morbidity and can be applied by different stakeholders to guide development, implementation, description, and evaluation.

description: The ACR Commission for Women and General Diversity is committed to identifying barriers to a diverse physician workforce in radiology and radiation oncology (RRO), and to offering policy recommendations to overcome these barriers. In Part 1 of a 2-part position article from the commission, diversity as a concept and its dimensions of personality, character, ethnicity, biology, biography, and organization are introduced. Terms commonly used to describe diverse individuals and groups are reviewed. The history of diversity and inclusion in US society and health care are addressed. The post–Civil Rights Era evolution of diversity in medicine is delineated: Diversity 1.0, with basic awareness, nondiscrimination, and recruitment; Diversity 2.0, with appreciation of the value of diversity but inclusion as peripheral or in opposition to other goals; and Diversity 3.0, which integrates diversity and inclusion into core missions of organizations and their leadership, and leverages its potential for innovation and contribution. The current states of diversity and inclusion in RRO are reviewed in regard to gender, race, ethnicity, sexual orientation, and gender identity. The lack of representation and unchanged demographics in these fields relative to other medical specialties are explored. The business case for diversity is discussed, with examples of successful models and potential application to the health care industry in general and to RRO. The moral, ethical, and public health imperative for diversity is also highlighted.

The Role of the Electron Mass in Damping Chiral Magnetic Instability in Supernova and Neutron Stars

description: We show that the nonzero electron mass plays a critical role in determining the magnetic properties of neutron stars, making it impossible to generate the chiral charge density needed to trigger a strong chiral magnetic instability during the core collapse of supernovae. This instability has been proposed as a plausible mechanism for generating extremely large helical magnetic fields in neutron stars at their birth; the mechanism relies on the generation of a large non-equilibrium chiral charge density via electron capture reactions that selectively deplete left-handed electrons during core-collapse and the early evolution of the protoneutron star. Our calculation shows that the electron chirality violation rate induced by Rutherford scattering, despite being suppressed by the smallness of the electron mass relative to the electron chemical potential, is still fast compared to the weak interaction electron capture rate. The resulting asymmetry between right and left-handed electron densities is therefore never able to attain an astrophysically relevant magnitude.
