description: Mechanosensitive (MS) ion channels are widespread mechanisms for cellular mechanosensation that can be directly activated by increasing membrane tension. The well-studied MscS family of MS ion channels is found in bacteria, archaea, and plants. MscS-Like (MSL)1 is localized to the inner mitochondrial membrane of Arabidopsis thaliana, where it is required for normal mitochondrial responses to oxidative stress. Like Escherichia coli MscS, MSL1 has a pore-lining helix that is kinked. However, in MSL1 this kink is comprised of two charged pore-lining residues, R326 and D327. Using single-channel patch-clamp electrophysiology in E. coli, we show that altering the size and charge of R326 and D327 leads to dramatic changes in channel kinetics. Modest changes in gating pressure were also observed while no effects on channel rectification or conductance were detected. MSL1 channel variants had differing physiological function in E. coli hypoosmotic shock assays, without clear correlation between function and particular channel characteristics. Taken together, these results demonstrate that altering pore-lining residue charge and size disrupts normal channel state stability and gating transitions, and led us to propose the “sweet spot” model. In this model, the transition to the closed state is facilitated by attraction between R326 and D327 and repulsion between R326 residues of neighboring monomers. In the open state, expansion of the channel reduces inter-monomeric repulsion, rendering open state stability influenced mainly by attractive forces. This work provides insight into how unique charge-charge interactions can be combined with an otherwise conserved structural feature to help modulate MS channel function.

description: A measurement of the $B^0_s \to J/ψϕ$ decay parameters using 80.5 $\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of integrated luminosity collected with the ATLAS detector from 13 TeV proton-proton collisions at the LHC is presented. The measured parameters include the $CP$-violating phase $ϕ_s$, the width difference $ΔΓ_{s}$ between the $B^0_s$ meson mass eigenstates and the average decay width $Γ_{s}$. The values measured for the physical parameters are combined with those from 19.2 $\mathrm{fb}^{-1}$ of 7 TeV and 8 TeV data, leading to the following: \begin{eqnarray*} ϕ_s & = & -0.087\phantom{0} \pm 0.036\phantom{0} ~\mathrm{(stat.)} \pm 0.021\phantom{0} ~\mathrm{(syst.)~rad} \\ ΔΓ_{s} & = & \phantom{-}0.0657 \pm 0.0043 ~\mathrm{(stat.)} \pm 0.0037 ~\mathrm{(syst.)~ps}^{-1} \\ Γ_{s} & = & \phantom{-}0.6703 \pm 0.0014 ~\mathrm{(stat.)} \pm 0.0018 ~\mathrm{(syst.)~ps}^{-1} \\ \end{eqnarray*} Results for $ϕ_s$ and $ΔΓ_{s}$ are also presented as 68% confidence level contours in the $ϕ_s$-$ΔΓ_{s}$ plane. Furthermore, the transversity amplitudes and corresponding strong phases are measured. $ϕ_s$ and $ΔΓ_{s}$ measurements are in agreement with the Standard Model predictions.

description: The Solar System motivates students to interest themselves in sciences, as a large number of concepts may be easily introduced through the observation and understanding of planet's motion. Using a large representation of the Solar System at a human scale ("a human Orrery"), we intend to show how cognitive activities about kinematics and dynamics are activated and linked to the sensori-motors activities. In the last three years, we have conducted different activities with 10 to 16 years old children. In this contribution, we discuss the different scientific concepts covered by the Human Orrery, and the enaction theory that provides a theoretical background to those activities. We detail the enaction of velocity with a description of the gestures in relation with the abstract concepts involved in kinematics.

description: O setor sucroalcooleiro do Brasil é o mais competitivo do mundo. Possui maiores níveis de produtividade, rendimento e menores custos de produção. A tendência de crescimento do preço mundial do petróleo, aliada a necessidade de redução de emissão de poluentes na atmosfera e ao alto volume de vendas dos veículos bicombustíveis deverá impulsionar de forma crescente a demanda interna e externa por álcool, sendo necessário grande volume de investimento para atender essa demanda. Com relação ao açúcar a perspectiva também é de demanda mundial crescente, influenciada diretamente pelo crescimento do consumo mundial de açúcar ao nível de 2% ao ano e pela perspectivas de redução da produção em países que estão investindo na produção de álcool combustível em detrimento de incrementos na produção agrícola. O objetivo geral da pesquisa foi caracterizar o setor sucroalcooleiro através da análise do mercado e da cadeia produtiva com foco na produção nordestina. O estudo foi realizado com base em pesquisa exploratória a partir de levantamento bibliográfico, entrevista aberta aos seguimentos representativos do setor e observação direta no decorrer das visitas. Os resultados encontrados permitem concluir que: o setor sofreu uma profunda reestruturação na gestão de produção, nas relações de trabalho, além de inovações tecnológicas; o setor sucroalcooleiro nordestino apresenta competitividade no mercado externo visto que o seu custo de produção fica acima apenas do obtido na região Centro- Sul do Brasil; o crescimento da produção na zona da Mata nordestina depende do aumento dos níveis de produtividade por meio da ampliação da área irrigada e do aumento do rendimento industrial; e, a ampliação da fronteira da cana-de-açúcar no Nordeste deverá centrar-se no Maranhão e Piauí.

description: Arabidopsis thaliana contains five tandem-pore domain potassium channels, TPK1-TPK5 and the related one-pore domain potassium channel, KCO3. Although KCO3 is unlikely to be an active channel, it still has a physiological role in plant cells. TPK2 is most similar to KCO3 and both are localized to the tonoplast. However, their function remains poorly understood. Here, taking advantage of the similarities between TPK2 and KCO3, we evaluated Ca2+ binding to the EF hands in TPK2, and the elements of KCO3 required for K+ channel activity. Presence of both EF-hand motifs in TPK2 resulted in Ca2+ binding, but EF1 or EF2 alone failed to interact with Ca2+. The EF hands were not required for K+ transport activity. EF1 contains two cysteines separated by two amino acids. Replacement of both cysteines with serines in TPK2 increased Ca2+ binding. We generated a two-pore domain chimeric K+ channel by replacing the missing pore region in KCO3 with a pore domain of TPK2. Alternatively, we generated two versions of simple one-pore domain K+ channels by removal of an extra region from KCO3. The chimera and one of the simple one-pore variants were functional channels. This strongly suggests that KCO3 is not a pseudogene and KCO3 retains components required for the formation of a functional K+ channel and oligomerization. Our results contribute to our understanding of the structural properties required for K+ channel activity.

description: Noncommutative geometry, an offshoot of string theory, replaces point-like objects by smeared objects. The resulting uncertainty may cause a black hole to be observationally indistinguishable from a traversable wormhole, while the latter, in turn, may become observationally indistinguishable from a gravastar. The same noncommutative-geometry background allows the theoretical construction of thin-shell wormholes from gravastars and may even serve as a model for dark energy.

 One female housed in the USNM collection and with the following label data seems to have been temporarily misplaced: Borinquen, Puerto Rico, 18.vi.1944, plane 5978, #1918, lo. no. 44 19590. This specimen was studied by the senior author (JAG) in 1999 while visiting the collection. The reddish-brown color on metasomal tergum I is more extensively present in the basal area (in C. spinosa this coloration occurs only laterally), the apical process of metasomal sternum VI is short (versus elongate in C. spinosa; Fig. 15B), and the apical margin of tergum VI is tridentate. Drawings of the female’s scutellum, axillae and apex of the metasoma were published by Genaro (2001) as erroneously pertaining to C. spinosa.

description: A competition process is a continuous time Markov chain that can be interpreted as a system of interacting birth-and-death processes, the components of which evolve subject to a competitive interaction. This paper is devoted to the study of the long-term behaviour of such a competition process, where a component of the process increases with a linear birth rate and decreases with a rate given by a linear function of other components. A zero is an absorbing state for each component, that is, when a component becomes zero, it stays zero forever (and we say that this component becomes extinct). We show that, with probability one, eventually only a random subset of non-interacting components of the process survives. A similar result also holds for the relevant generalized Polya urn model with removals.

description: The polarization of the cosmic microwave background radiation will have a distribution of singularities and anti-singularities, points where the polarization vanishes for topological reasons. The statistics of polarization singularities provides a non-trivial scheme to analyze the polarization maps that is distinct from the usual two-point correlation functions. Here we characterize the statistics of the singularity distribution in simulated polarization maps, and make predictions that can be compared with ongoing and upcoming observations. We use three different characterizations: the nearest neighbor distance between singularities, the critical exponent νthat captures the scaling of total charge q within a closed curve of length L (q \propto L^ν), and the angular two point angular correlation functions for singularities of similar and opposite charge. In general, we find that the distribution of singularities is random except on scales less than about 10 deg, where singularities of the same charge repel and those of opposite charge attract. These conclusions appear to be extremely robust with respect to variations in the underlying cosmological model and the presence of non-Gaussianity; the only exception we found are cases where statistical isotropy is grossly violated. This suggests that, within the assumption of statistical isotropy, the distribution is a robust feature of the last scattering surface and potentially may be used as a tool to discriminate effects that occur during photon propagation from the last scattering surface to the present epoch.

description: Transient receptor potential (TRP) channels form a family of polymodal cation channels gated by thermal, mechanical, or chemical stimuli, with many of them involved in the control of proliferation, apoptosis, or cell cycle. From an evolutionary point of view, TRP family is characterized by high conservation of duplicated genes originating from whole-genome duplication at the onset of vertebrates. The conservation of such “ohnolog” genes is theoretically linked to an increased probability of generating phenotypes deleterious for the organism upon gene mutation. We aimed to test experimentally the hypothesis that TRP mutations, in particular gain-of-function, could be involved in the generation of deleterious phenotypes involved in cancer, such as gain of invasiveness. Indeed, a number of TRP channels have been linked to cancer progression, and exhibit changes in expression levels in various types of cancers. However, TRP mutations in cancer have been poorly documented. We focused on 2 TRPV family members, TRPV4 and TRPV6, and studied the effect of putative gain-of-function mutations on invasiveness properties. TRPV channels have a C-terminal calmodulin-binding domain (CaMBD) that has important functions for regulating protein function, through different mechanisms depending on the channel (channel inactivation/potentiation, cytoskeleton regulation). We studied the effect of mutations mimicking constitutive phosphorylation in TRPV4 and TRPV6 CaMBDs: TRPV4 S823D, S824D and T813D, TRPV6 S691D, S692D and T702. We found that most of these mutants induced a strong gain of invasiveness of colon adenocarcinoma SW480 cells, both for TRPV4 and TRPV6. While increased invasion with TRPV6 S692D and T702D mutants was correlated to increased mutant channel activity, it was not the case for TRPV4 mutants, suggesting different mechanisms with the same global effect of gain in deleterious phenotype. This highlights the potential importance to search for TRP mutations involved in cancer.
Effects of interstellar and solar wind ionized helium on the interaction of the solar wind with the local interstellar medium

description: The Sun is moving through a warm ($\sim$6500 K) and partly ionized local interstellar cloud (LIC) with a velocity of $\sim$26 km/s. Recent measurements of the ionization of the LIC (Wolff et al., 1999) suggest that interstellar helium in the vicinity of the Sun is 30-40 % ionized, while interstellar hydrogen is less ionized. Consequently, interstellar helium ions contribute up to 50% of the total dynamic pressure of the ionized interstellar component. Up to now interstellar helium ions have been ignored in existing models of the heliospheric interface. In this paper we present results of a new model of the solar wind interaction with the interstellar medium, which takes into account interstellar helium ions. Using results of this model we find that the heliopause, termination and bow shocks are closer to the Sun when compared to the model results that ignore $He$ ions. The influence of interstellar helium ions is partially compensated by solar wind alpha particles, which are taken into account in our new model as well. Finally, we apply our new model to place constraints on the plausible location of the termination shock.

description: InAs/GaSb heterostructure is one of the systems where quantum spin Hall effect is predicted to arise. However, as confirmed by recent experimental studies, the most significant highlight of the effect i.e., the conductance quantization due to non-trivial edge states is obscured by spurious conductivity arising from trivial edge states. In this work, we present experimental observation of strong localization of trivial edge modes in an InAs/GaSb heterostructure which was weakly disordered by silicon delta-like dopants within the InAs layer. The edge conduction which is characterized by a temperature-independent behavior at low temperatures and a power law at high temperatures is observed to be exponentially scaled with the length of the edge. Comprehensive analysis on measurements with a range of devices is in agreement with the localization theories in quasi one-dimensional electronic systems.

description: We analyze the effects of the background velocity and the initial magnetic field correlations, and viscosities on the turbulent dynamo and the α-effect. We calculate the α-coefficients for arbitrary magnetic and fluid viscosities, background velocity and the initial magnetic field correlations. We explicitly demonstrate that the general features of the initial growth and late-time saturation of the magnetic fields due to the non-linear feedback are qualitatively independent of these correlations. We also examine the hydrodynamic limit of the magnetic field growth in a renormalization group framework and discuss the possibilities of suppression of the dynamo growth below a critical rotation. We demonstrate that for Kolmogorov- (K41) type of spectra the Ekman number M >1/2 for dynamo growth to occur.

description: The flux anomalies in four-image gravitational lenses can be interpreted as evidence for the dark matter substructure predicted by cold dark matter (CDM) halo models. In principle, these flux anomalies could arise from alternate sources such as absorption, scattering or scintillation by the interstellar medium (ISM) of the lens galaxy, problems in the ellipsoidal macro models used to fit lens systems, or stellar microlensing. We apply several tests to the data that appear to rule out these alternate explanations. First, the radio flux anomalies show no significant dependence on wavelength, as would be expected for almost any propagation effect in the ISM or microlensing by the stars. Second, the flux anomaly distributions show the characteristic demagnifications of the brightest saddle point relative to the other images expected for low optical depth substructure, which cannot be mimicked by either the ISM or problems in the macro models. Microlensing by stars also cannot reproduce the suppression of the bright saddle points if the radio source sizes are consistent with the Compton limit for their angular sizes. Third, while it is possible to change the smooth lens models to fit the flux anomalies in some systems, we can rule out the necessary changes in all systems where we have additional lens constraints to check the models. Moreover, the parameters of these models are inconsistent with our present observations and expectations for the structure of galaxies. We conclude that low-mass halos remain the best explanation of the phenomenon.

description: Automatic synthesis of faces from visual attributes is an important problem in computer vision and has wide applications in law enforcement and entertainment. With the advent of deep generative convolutional neural networks (CNNs), attempts have been made to synthesize face images from attributes and text descriptions. In this paper, we take a different approach, where we formulate the original problem as a stage-wise learning problem. We first synthesize the facial sketch corresponding to the visual attributes and then we generate the face image based on the synthesized sketch. The proposed framework, is based on a combination of two different Generative Adversarial Networks (GANs) - (1) a sketch generator network which synthesizes realistic sketch from the input attributes, and (2) a face generator network which synthesizes facial images from the synthesized sketch images with the help of facial attributes. Extensive experiments and comparison with recent methods are performed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed attribute-based two-stage face synthesis method.

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: We find explicit probe D3-brane solutions in the infrared of the Maldacena-Nunez background. The solutions describe deformed baryon vertices: q external quarks are separated in spacetime from the remaining N-q. As the separation is taken to infinity we recover known solutions describing infinite confining strings in ${\mathcal{N}}=1$ gauge theory. We present results for the mass of finite confining strings as a function of length. We also find probe D2-brane solutions in a confining type IIA geometry, the reduction of a G_2 holonomy M theory background. The relation between these deformed baryons and confining strings is not as straightforward.

The super power of an opensource Wi-Fi chip -- openwifi
Creators: name: Xianjun, Jiao
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2023

description: The opensource software has played a substantial role in the world. It (especially Linux related) can be found in the cloud (data center infrastructure), in your pocket (phones) and in many machines (TV set, home routers, etc.). The opensource has empowered researchers, developers, SMEs and big companies to build many innovative applications.

But in the hardware domain, especially for the connectivity chips (cellular, Wi-Fi, etc.), it is an almost (if not totally) close-source ecosystem. It is very difficult for researchers, developers and SMEs to do innovation in depth into the connectivity chip domain. The openwifi project (https://github.com/open-sdr ), an opensource Wi-Fi chip design currently running in FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array), has changed this situation!

The openwifi design, supports Wi-Fi4 and Wi-Fi6, and has exactly the same functionalities as the commercial WiFi devices/APs. Many researchers/developers from all over the world have studied the source code on github and done many innovations on it. The openwifi project has become rank 2 on github Verilog topic: https://github.com/topics/verilog . (Verilog is the most popular chip design language).

In this demonstration, you can use your own devices (phones/tablets/laptop) connecting the openwifi AP to experience the opensource Wi-Fi “chip”. You will also see one of many “super power” of it: Wi-Fi sensing. When people walk around or change their gestures, a real-time CSI (Channel State Information) will also change on the screen. Interested researchers could use this data for further machine learning or artificial intelligence processing to do localization, health care (heart rate, breathing) and security research.

Quantum tricritical point emerging in the spin-boson model with two dissipative spins in staggered biases

description: We study the spin-boson model (SBM) with two spins in staggered biases by a numerically exact method based on variational matrix product states. Several observables such as the magnetization, the entanglement entropy between the two spins and the bosonic environment, the ground-state energy, as well as the correlation function for two spins are calculated exactly. The characteristics of these observables suggest that the staggered biases can drive the 2nd-order quantum phase transition (QPT) to the 1st-order QPT in the sub-Ohmic SBM, while the Kosterlitz-Thouless QPT in the Ohmic SBM goes directly to the 1st-order one. A quantum tricritical point, where the continuous QPT meets the 1st-order one, can then be detected. It is found that the staggered biases would not change the universality of { the phase transition in this model} below the quantum tricritical point.

Local Interstellar Matter: The Apex Cloud

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Several nearby individual low column density interstellar cloudlets have been identified based on kinematical features evident in high-resolution CaII observations near the Sun. One of these cloudlets, the ``Aquila-Ophiuchus'' cloud, is within 5 pc of the Sun and located in the solar apex direction. The velocity vector of this Apex Cloud is reevaluated and components at this velocity are found towards 17 stars with distances 1--60 pc, and located primarily in the galactic center hemisphere. The Apex Cloud is the most likely candidate for the ``next'' interstellar cloud to be encountered by the Sun.

description: Cross-sections and recoil polarizations for the reactions gamma + p --> K^+ + Lambda and gamma + p --> K^+ + Sigma^0 have been measured with high statistics and with good angular coverage for center-of-mass energies between 1.6 and 2.3 GeV. In the K^+Lambda channel we confirm a structure near W=1.9 GeV at backward kaon angles, but our data shows a more complex s- and u- channel resonance structure than previously seen. This structure is present at forward and backward angles but not central angles, and its position and width change with angle, indicating that more than one resonance is playing a role. Rising back-angle cross sections at higher energies and large positive polarization at backward angles are consistent with sizable s- or u-channel contributions. None of the model calculations we present can consistently explain these aspects of the data.

Thermal-null medium (TNM): a novel material to achieve feasible thermodynamics devices beyond conventional challenges

description: Recently, heat manipulation has gained the attention of scientific community due to its several applications. In this letter, based on transformation thermodynamic (TT) methodology, a novel material, which is called thermal-null medium (TNM), is proposed that enables us to design various thermal functionalities such as thermal bending devices, arbitrary shape heat concentrators and omnidirectional thermal cloaks. In contrary to the conventional TT-based conductivities, which are inhomogeneous and anisotropic, TNMs are homogeneous and easy to realize. In addition, the attained TNMs are independent of the device shape. That is if the geometry of the desired device is changed, there is no need to recalculate the necessitating conductivities. This feature of TNM will make it suitable for scenarios where re-configurability is of utmost importance. Several numerical simulations are carried out to demonstrate the TNM capability and its applications in directional bending devices, heat concentrators and thermal cloaks. The proposed TNM could open a new avenue for potential applications in solar thermal panels and thermal-electric devices.
