description: Ihrer Arbeit in der Originalsprache: This work aims at identifying relevant road surface characteristics to mitigate tire-road noise of free-rolling tires using a systematic approach. As using open porous roads is already known as an efficient measure to reduce tire rolling noise, this study will focus on compact road surfaces which have a low acoustic absorption. Measurements on standardized ISO 10844 test tracks and on public roads are used to study the norm's representativity and its completeness.

description: The Beckmann rearrangement of the oxime of 11-oxo-⍺, 20-dihydroxy-C-nor pregnane (54) provided the corresponding lactam (56). Oxidation of the latter with Jones reagent furnished the 3-keto-alcohol (57), which upon its conversion to the acetate derivative (58) followed by bromination and dehydrobromination yielded ll-aza-20-acetoxy-pregn-4-ene-3,12-dione (60). Hydrolysis of the latter to the ∆⁴ -3-keto alcohol (62) followed by oxidation furnished the desired ll-aza-pregn-4-ene-3,12,20-trione (63). The synthetic sequence provides the first examples of ll-aza steroid analogues in which ring C is a six membered and ring A possesses the ∆⁴-3-keto moiety.

description: The external communication and dissemination plan aims at precising the type of activities and variety of audiences to maximize the promotion of ICARUS and its impact. This plan identifies the information needs of the specific project stakeholders and determines
 channels for tailored, target-specific communications and dissemination activities. In accordance with the glossary of terms “communication” and “dissemination” available on the EC Europa Website, this plan contains:
 * Appropriate means to publicly disclose the results - other than protecting or exploiting them. e.g., scientific publications (dissemination)
 * Strategic and targeted measures to communicate about the action and its results to a multitude of audiences, including the media and the public and possibly engaging in a two-way exchange (communication). Thus, the external communication and dissemination plan consists of a strategic plan for the use and dissemination of results of the ICARUS project. Results refer to any tangible or intangible output of the action, such as data, knowledge and information whatever their form or nature. It is structured in two parts:
 * Description of the dissemination procedure
 * Presentation of the communication plan
 This plan ensures that ICARUS partners will provide the knowledge gained during the project’s lifetime in the right format, at the right time and with the right impact.

description: The spectral properties and phase diagram of the exact integrable spin one quantum chain introduced by Alcaraz and Bariev are presented. The model has a U(1) symmetry and its integrability is associated to an unknown R-matrix whose dependence on the spectral parameters is not of difference form. The associated Bethe ansatz equations, that fix the eigenspectra, are distinct from those associated to other known integrable spin models. The model has a free parameter $t_p$. We show that at the special point $t_p=1$ the model gets an extra U(1) symmetry and reduces to the deformed SU(3) Perk-Schultz model at a special value of its anisotropy $q=\exp(i2π/3)$ andin the presence of an external magnetic field. Our analysis is done either by solving the associated Bethe-ansatz equations or by direct diagonalization of thequantum Hamiltonian for small lattice sizes. The phase diagram is calculated by exploring the consequences of conformal invariance on the finite-size corrections of the Hamiltonian eigenspectrum. The model exhibits a critical phase ruled by $c=1$ conformal field theory separated from a massive phase by first-order phase transitions.

description: Although postharvest coffee fruit fermentation can improve coffee flavour and quality, the mycotoxin ochratoxin A (OTA) can also be a result of microbiological activity, albeit in the later drying step of coffee processing. To evaluate the possible occurrence of OTA contamination in postharvest fruit fermentation, fourteen coffees that entailed two different postharvest fruit fermentation times were evaluated. These coffees originated in the surroundings of the village of Pedra Menina in the qualified Denomination of Origin and coffee producer region of Caparaó on the border between Minas Gerais and Espírito Santo states in Brazil. All coffees were classified according to the Specialty Coffee Association (SCA) protocol and 12 achieved specialty level. OTA was determined in all 14 coffees using immunoaffinity for sample clean-up and high-performance liquid chromatography with fluorescence detection for quantification. One sample presented an OTA concentration of 0.75 µg kg−1 and two samples showed OTA concentrations of 0.87 µg kg−1. The other samples had concentrations of OTA below the limit of quantification obtained in this work (0.64 µg kg−1). Thus, all samples showed OTA concentrations far below the most stringent maximum residue limit (MRL) of 5 µg kg−1 established for roasted coffees by European legislation. These low levels were similar to most of the previous results for Brazilian coffees listed and tabled in this work. This comparison showed that OTA contamination due to this kind of postharvest process – fruit fermentation – should not be a concern for producers and consumers of these fermented coffees.

description: A carbon neutral energy supply will rely heavily on the use of solar energy in different forms. Photovoltaics (PV), i.e. the generation of electricity from solar cells will be a cornerstone, and the production and deployment of solar panels have soared during the past 20 years, and PV now accounts for 60% of the global increase in renewable energy, according to IEA1. The production of solar cells is both a mature and immature industry at the same time: It is mature since robust industrial techniques exist that supply energy in amounts already comparable to traditional energy sources: nuclear, hydropower and fossil energy. It is immature because the development has occurred so fast that optimized routes for efficient resource handling need to be developed. During the production of solar panels large resource flows are generated, which currently largely end up as waste. Here to the challenge in re-use is connected to the material properties: The composition, purity and morphology will determine how the current waste should be processed in order to realize the value potential. We have therefore performed a waste inventory for three important material flows occurring from silicon-ingot and wafer manufacturing in the PV production value chain: Si kerf from sawing of wafers, silica from crucibles used in crystal pulling and graphite from crystal growth furnaces. Utilising the circular potential of these waste products, 9.6 Mt of silicon, 1.2 Mt of silica and 0.6 Mt of graphite could be unlocked by 2050 as secondary raw materials.

description: We describe a practical procedure to calculate the Coulomb matrix elements of 2D spatially separated and confined charge carriers, which are needed for detailed theoretical descriptions of important condensed matter finite systems. We derive an analytical expression, for arbitrary separations, in terms of a single infinite series and apply a u-type Levin transform in order to accelerate the resulting infinite series. This procedure has proven to be efficient and accurate. Direct consequences concerning the functional dependence of the matrix elements on the separation distance, transition amplitudes and the diagonalization of a single electron-hole pair in vertically stacked parabolic quantum dots are presented.

description: This study provides the first data related to albendazole (ABZ) and its main metabolites [albendazole sulphoxide (ABZSO), albendazole sulphone (ABZSO2), and albendazole-2-amino sulphone (ABZ-2-NH2-SO2)] residue depletion in tambaqui (Colossoma macropomum) parasitised by acanthocephalan (Neoechinorhynchus buttnerae). The ABZ withdrawal period was also calculated. The fish received a daily dose of 10 mg ABZ kg−1 body weight (b.w.) via medicated feed for 34 days. Samples of target tissue (muscle plus skin in natural proportions) were collected 24, 48, 72, 120, 168, 240, and 336 h after the end of ABZ administration. The quantitation of ABZ residues and its metabolites in the target tissue was performed using a validated ultra-high performance liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (UHPLC-MS/MS) analytical method. After treatment, ABZ in the target tissue was rapidly metabolised over time, and ABZSO was the most persistent metabolite and was shown to be at the highest levels in the target tissue. Considering the maximum residue limit (MRL) established by Codex Alimentarius in the muscle (100 μg kg−1, species not specified), a withdrawal period of 4 days (112 °C-day) was estimated for the total residue (sum of ABZ and its metabolite residues). Considering data reported in the literature and data obtained in this study, it is suggested that the total residue be considered as marker residue to be adopted for fish in the legislative framework.

description: In this study accumulation has been determined of several per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) from ingested water to steady state serum concentration for adult beef cattle and sheep raised on a hobby farm impacted by PFAS contamination. PFAS concentrations in stock water were stable for more than a year, they were non-measurable in grass but present at very low levels in soil which equated to just 1% of the intake from water. Prior to quantifying PFAS in cattle serum there had been no breeding for 18 months. Although there were high concentrations of several PFAS in the water, only perfluorooctane sulphonate (PFOS) and perfluorohexane sulphonate (PFHxS) were in cattle serum in appreciable amounts; perfluoroheptane sulphonate (PFHpS), perfluorononanoic acid (PFNA) and perfluorodecanoic acid (PFDA) were much lower. Transfer factors (TFs) for cattle were calculated by dividing steady state serum concentration (ng PFAS/mL) by water concentration (µg PFAS/L). Average and upper estimate TF values for cattle were calculated; the former were 140 (total PFOS, i.e. tPFOS), 130 (PFHpS), 65 (PFHxS), 170 (PFNA), and 120 (PFDA). Previous investigation campaigns at the farm provided relative steady state serum PFAS concentrations for sheep and cattle that allowed adjustment of the cattle TFs. The resulting average estimate TFs for ewes (non-pregnant and not lactating) were 20 (tPFOS) and 30 (PFHxS), other PFAS were not measurable in sheep serum. Discussion on using these TFs in human health risk assessments is provided. With certain assumptions/caveats the TFs allow estimations of PFAS steady state serum concentrations for use in preliminary human health risk assessments (HHRAs) when only PFAS in stock water is known.

description: We study nonrelativistic gravity using the Hamiltonian formalism. For the dynamics of general relativity (relativistic gravity) the formalism is well known and called the Arnowitt-Deser-Misner (ADM) formalism. We show that if the lapse function is constrained correctly, then nonrelativistic gravity is described by a consistent Hamiltonian system. Surprisingly, nonrelativistic gravity can have solutions identical to relativistic gravity ones. In particular, (anti-)de Sitter black holes of Einstein gravity and IR limit of Horava gravity are locally identical.

description: The content and composition of paralytic shellfish toxins (PSTs) in Japanese basket clam (Corbicula japonica) and mussels (Mytilus galloprovincialis) from Osaka Bay, Japan, were investigated using a mouse bioassay (MBA) and hydrophilic interaction liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry (HILIC-MS/MS), and the association between toxicity values of MBA and HILIC-MS/MS was verified based on research data. The overall toxicity in Japanese basket clam was lower than that in the mussel. The PSTs of Japanese basket clam and mussel consisted mainly of C1, C2, and gonyautoxins 1–4 (GTX1–4) taking toxins compositional differences as mol%. When multiplying the content of different toxins by the toxic equivalent factor (TEF), C2 and GTX1–4 accounted for more than 90% of total toxicity (MU TEF/g) based on the MU TEF score converted by TEF for the two species. The total content of C2 and GTX1–4 converted to toxicity was significantly correlated with the toxicity determined by MBA for the two species (r2 > 0.983). This study provides a suitable and ethical monitoring method to investigate toxicity in bivalves contaminated with A. tamarense by analysis of only predominant toxins, along with reducing use of MBA.

Attempts to quantify mitochondrial DNA deletions in Single Drosophila melanogaster flies
Creators: name: Huzzard, Lewis
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2020

description: Research to date has not clearly described the role mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) deletions may have in normal ageing. Therefore, a high throughput method of mtDNA deletion detection and quantification is required. The goal of this project was to develop such an assay using individual Drosophila melanogaster, which allowed for rapid generation of aged animals and manipulation of conditions which could affect deletion generation. An assay composed of DNA extraction and Quantitative Polymerase Chain Reaction (QPCR) was designed for deletion amplification. Primers were designed to amplify deletions within the cytochrome oxidase (COX) region with primers in nadh ubiquinone oxidoreductase 1 (ND1) used as a control to quantify total mtDNA. Optimising QPCR methods for specific primer pairs improved target amplification and replicability. Redesign of an existing DNA extraction kit improved overall mtDNA yield for assay development but still lacked consistency. QPCR inhibitors present in commercial extraction kits were present in minor concentrations in extracts and likely impacted amplification efficiency. The lack of sufficient mtDNA extraction from single Drosophila for consistent deletion amplification lead to mispriming and nonspecific amplification of nuclear DNA (nDNA). Repeated amplification of one deletion across multiple extracts suggests QPCR preferentially amplifies the shortest available target sequence, corresponding to the largest deletion. Redesign of the DNA extraction method to yield higher mtDNA concentration whilst reducing inhibitors would assist in reducing nonspecific amplification. mtDNA enrichment may be required to remove nDNA if nonspecific amplification still occurs. Differential amplification of deletions depending on size renders comparison and quantification difficult. Targeted amplification of a specific common deletion may eliminate this issue at the cost of quantifying just one deletion. The likelihood of single Drosophila harbouring sufficient numbers of a specific deletion should be determined to assess if quantification of mtDNA deletion levels in single Drosophila is viable.

description: The present paper is based on the assumption that heavy quarks bound states exist in the Standard Model (SM). Considering New Bound States (NBS) of top-anti-top quarks (named T-balls) we have shown that: 1) there exists the scalar 1S-bound state of 6t+6\bar t; 2) the forces which bind the top-quarks are very strong and almost completely compensate the mass of the twelve top-anti-top-quarks in the scalar NBS; 3) such strong forces are produced by the Higgs-top-quarks interaction with a large value of the top-quark Yukawa coupling constant g_t\simeq 1. Theory also predicts the existence of the NBS 6t + 5\bar t, which is a color triplet and a fermion similar to the t'-quark of the fourth generation. We have also considered the "b-quark-replaced" NBS. We have estimated the masses of the lightest fermionic NBS: M_{NBS}\gtrsim 300 GeV, and discussed the larger masses of T-balls. Searching for heavy quarks bound states at the Tevatron and LHC is discussed.

description: The transport of relativistic electrons generated in the interaction of petawatt class lasers with solid targets has been studied through measurements of the optical emission from their rear surface. The high degree of polarization of the emission indicates that it is predominantly optical transition radiation. A halo that surrounds the main region of emission is also polarized, and is attributed to the effect of electron recirculation. The variation of the amplitude of the transition radiation with respect to observation angle provides evidence for the presence of {$μ$m-size} filaments.

description: We examine whether fluctuation-induced forces can lead to stable levitation. First, we analyze a collection of classical objects at finite temperature that contain fixed and mobile charges, and show that any arrangement in space is unstable to small perturbations in position. This extends Earnshaw's theorem for electrostatics by including thermal fluctuations of internal charges. Quantum fluctuations of the electromagnetic field are responsible for Casimir/van der Waals interactions. Neglecting permeabilities, we find that any equilibrium position of items subject to such forces is also unstable if the permittivities of all objects are higher or lower than that of the enveloping medium; the former being the generic case for ordinary materials in vacuum.

description: Motivated by recent studies reporting the formation of localized magnetic moments in doped graphene, we investigate the energetic cost for spin polarizing isolated impurities embedded in this material. When a well-known criterion for the formation of local magnetic moments in metals is applied to graphene we are able to predict the existence of magnetic moments in cases that are in clear contrast to previously reported Density Functional Theory (DFT) results. When generalized to periodically repeated impurities, a geometry so commonly used in most DFT-calculations, this criterion shows that the energy balance involved in such calculations contains unavoidable contributions from the long-ranged pairwise magnetic interactions between all impurities. This proves the fundamental inadequacy of the DFT-assumption of independent unit cells in the case of magnetically doped low-dimensional graphene-based materials. We show that this can be circumvented if more than one impurity per unit cell is considered, in which case the DFT results agree perfectly well with the criterion-based predictions for the onset of localized magnetic moments in graphene. Furthermore, the existence of such a criterion determining whether or not a magnetic moment is likely to arise within graphene will be instrumental for predicting the ideal materials for future carbon-based spintronic applications.

description: In Part I of this work, the decay of O₂(¹Δg) was studied at room temperature in the flow system in the absence of oxygen atoms. The decay of O₂(¹Δg) was classified into first and second order decay with respect to O₂(¹Δg). The rate constant of the main first order decay with respect to O₂(¹Δg), which is considered to be caused by collisions of O₂(¹Δg) with wall of the reaction tube, was found to be 0.25 sec. The total second order decay constant was found to be 2.9 x 10⁴ 1/ mole sec. In Part II the reactions of excited oxygen molecules with some olefins were investigated. 2,3-Dimethyl-3-hydroperoxybutene-1 was identified as the product of the reaction of excited oxygen molecules with 2,3-dimethylbutene-2, 3-Methyl hydroperoxybutene-1 and 2-methyl-3hydro-peroxybutene-1 were produced by the reaction of excited oxygen molecule with 2-methylbutene-2. The decay of O₂(¹Δg) with 2,3-dimethylbutene-2 was also studied but the results could not be explained by any simple mechanism.

These results are applied to simple physical models describing main-sequence stars, white-dwarfs and neutron stars. The stability of main-sequence stars and white dwarfs is discussed.

description: Every language is like a one-of-a-kind species. It captures unique conceptualizations of the world and has its own ways of constructing words, phrases and sentences for communicating ideas. As we compare the words and structures of various languages, we come to a greater understanding of the world we live in. Apart from simply understanding the intricacies of world languages, this knowledge can be applied to improving communication between people, contributing to translation activities, assisting in literacy efforts, and treating speech disorders. And, of course, linguistics training is also valuable for studying and learning languages.

description: We re-examine the evolutionary dynamics of RNA secondary structures under directional selection towards an optimum RNA structure. We find that the punctuated equilibria lead to a very slow approach to the optimum, following on average an inverse power of the evolutionary time. In addition, our study of the trajectories shows that the out-of-equilibrium effects due to the evolutionary process are very weak. In particular, the distribution of genotypes is close to that arising during equilibrium stabilizing selection. As a consequence, the evolutionary dynamics leave almost no measurable out-of-equilibrium trace, only the transition genotypes (close to the border between different periods of stasis) have atypical mutational properties.

Quality management

description: Introduction: Fever in immunocompromised pediatric oncology patients can have serious implications and warrants immediate intervention. Antibiotic administration within one hour of fever (golden hour) has been shown to improve outcomes. Our study aims to reduce the time to antibiotic delivery using a unique admission strategy. Materials and Methods:  Patient preregistration and direct floor admission were initiated upon provider notification of fever. Order sets with labs and medication were activated in the EMR prior to patient’s arrival. After drawing pertinent labs, the first dose of antibiotic was administered. Results: There were 29 patients in the Pre-QI and 45 patients in the Post QI group, with similar baseline characteristics (p=0.44). The primary objective of reducing time to initial antibiotic delivery was statistically achieved by administering the antibiotic within the first hour of admission in nearly 82% of patients in Post QI compared to only 27% in the Pre QI period (p=0.0019). Mean time taken to administer the antibiotic was 79±183 minutes and 358±1233 minutes in the post and pre QI groups respectively. There was no significant difference in the duration of fever, incidence of failure of first line antibiotics or length of stay. None of the patients progressed to severe sepsis in the Post QI group compared to nearly 7% in the Pre QI group, though the difference was not significant (p=0.07). Conclusion: Thus, the implementation of a simple hospital based initiative has drastically reduced the time for antibiotic delivery at our Institution. Moreover, our strategy successfully prevented progression to severe sepsis.

Challenges of Stroke Treatment during the COVID-19 Pandemic

description: The Corona Virus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemicis creating new challenges in treating acute ischemicstroke with intravenous (IV) recombinant tissue plasmi‐nogen activator (rt-PA) and mechanical thrombectomy[1–4]. The time interval between symptom onset andpresentation to emergency department (ED) for strokepatients has increased in some centers [1,4] Stroke neu‐rologists must inquire about the presence of respiratorysymptoms, such as cough and dyspnea, before entering

patients’ rooms to determine their eligibility for IV rt-PA. The reliability of acquiring an accurate history of

respiratory symptoms may be challenging in acutestroke patients due to underlying aphasia and cognitivedeficits [1]. Family (who are not allowed to enter theED) are often not immediately available to provide rele‐vant information by telephone about respiratory symp‐toms which increases the risk for treating stroke neurol‐ogists. An accurate assessment of respiratory symptomsmay identify COVID-19 infected patients and therebypermit the stroke neurologist to use personal protectiveequipment, including a particulate filtering mask. How‐ever, additional delays may occur while ensuring appro‐priate protection against transmission of COVID-19infection [4]. Patients, who are fearful of infection, arewearing face masks to the ED, which makes it more dif‐ficult to communicate and identify neurological signs,such as facial weakness and dysarthria while in the ED.

Quiescent Isolation: The Extremely Extended HI Halo of the Optically Compact Dwarf Galaxy ADBS 113845+2008

description: We present new optical imaging and spectroscopy and HI spectral line imaging of the dwarf galaxy ADBS 113845+2008 (hereafter ADBS 1138). This metal-poor (Z~30% Z_Sun), "post-starburst" system has one of the most compact stellar distributions known in any galaxy to date (B-band exponential scale length =0.57 kpc). In stark contrast to the compact stellar component, the neutral gas is extremely extended; HI is detected to a radial distance of ~25 kpc at the 10^19 cm^-2 level (>44 B-band scale lengths). Comparing to measurements of similar "giant disk" dwarf galaxies in the literature, ADBS 1138 has the largest known HI-to-optical size ratio. The stellar component is located near the center of a broken ring of HI that is ~15 kpc in diameter; column densities peak in this structure at the ~3.5x10^20 cm^-2 level. At the center of this ring, in a region of comparatively low HI column density, we find ongoing star formation traced by H alpha emission. We sample the rotation curve to the point of turn over; this constrains the size of the dark matter halo of the galaxy, which outweighs the luminous component (stars + gas) by at least a factor of 15. To explain these enigmatic properties, we examine "inside-out" and "outside-in" evolutionary scenarios. Calculations of star formation energetics indicate that "feedback" from concentrated star formation is not capable of producing the ring structure; we posit that this is a system where the large HI disk is evolving in quiescent isolation. In a global sense, this system is exceedingly inefficient at converting neutral gas into stars.

description: The spectrum from the black hole X-ray transient GRO J1655-40. obtained using the $Chandra$ High Energy Transmission Grating (HETG) in 2005 is notable as a laboratory for the study of warm absorbers, and for the presence of many lines from odd-$Z$ elements between Na and Co (and Ti and Cr) not previously observed in X-rays. We present synthetic spectral models which can be used to constrain these element abundances and other parameters describing the outflow from the warm absorber in this object. We present results of fitting to the spectrum using various tools and techniques, including automated line fitting, phenomenological models, and photoionization modeling. We show that the behavior of the curves of growth of lines from H-like and Li-like ions indicate that the lines are either saturated or affected by filling-in from scattered or a partially covered continuum source. We confirm the conclusion of previous work by \cite{Mill06} and \cite{Mill08} which shows that the ionization conditions are not consistent with wind driving due to thermal expansion. The spectrum provides the opportunity to measure abundances for several elements not typically observable in the X-ray band. These show a pattern of enhancement for iron peak elements, and solar or sub-solar values for elements lighter than calcium. Models show that this is consistent with enrichment by a core-collapse supernova. We discuss the implications these values for the evolutionary history of this system.

description: With the advancement of autonomous driving research, 3D detection based on LiDAR point cloud has gradually become one of the top research topics in the field of artificial intelligence. Compared with RGB cameras, LiDAR point cloud can provide depth information, while RGB images can provide denser resolution. Features from LiDAR and cameras are considered to be complementary. However, due to the sparsity of the LiDAR point clouds, a dense and accurate RGB/3D projective relationship is difficult to establish especially for distant scene points. Recent works try to solve this problem by designing a network that learns missing points or dense point density distribution to compensate for the sparsity of the LiDAR point cloud. During the master’s exploration, we consider addressing this problem from two aspects. The first is to design a GAN(Generative Adversarial Network)-based module to reconstruct point clouds, and the second is to apply regional point cloud enhancement based on motion maps. In the first aspect, we propose to use an imagine-and-locate process, called UYI. The objective of this module is to improve the point cloud quality and is independent of the detection stage used for inference. We accomplish this task through a GAN-based cross-modality module that uses image as input to infer a dense LiDAR shape. In another aspect, inspired by the attention mechanism of human eyes, we use motion maps to perform random augmentation on point clouds in a targeted manner named motion map-assisted enhancement, MAE. Boosted by our UYI and MAE module, our experiments show a significant performance improvement in all tested baseline models. In fact, benefiting from the plug-and-play characteristics of our module, we were able to push the performance of the existing state-of-the-art model to a new height. Our method not only has made great progress in the detection performance of vehicle objects but also achieved an even bigger leap forward in the pedestrian category. In future research, we will continue to explore the feasibility of spatio-temporal correlation methods in 3D detection, and 3D detection related to motion information extraction could be a promising direction.
