description: A standard for creating interchangeable bioinformatics software containers

Software has proliferated in bioinformatics and so have the problems associated with it: missing or unobtainable code, difficult to install dependencies, unreproducible workflows, all with terrible user experiences. We have created bioboxes with the aim to make accessing and using bioinformatics software more simple and more easy.

description: Using single-particle pseudopotential and many-particle configuration interaction methods, we compare various physical quantities of (In,Ga)As/GaAs quantum dot molecules (QDMs) made of dissimilar dots (heteropolar QDMs) with QDMs made of identical dots (homopolar QDMs). The calculations show that the electronic structures of hetero-QDMs and homo-QDMs differ significantly at large inter-dot distance. In particular (i) Unlike those of homo-QDMs, the single-particle molecular orbitals of hetero-QDMs convert to dot localized orbitals at large inter-dot distance. (ii) Consequently, in a hetero-QMD the bonding-antibonding splitting of molecular orbitals at large inter-dot distance is significantly larger than the electron hopping energy whereas for homo-QDM, the bonding-antibonding splitting is very similar to the hopping energy. (iii) The asymmetry of the QDM increases significantly the double occupation for the two-electron ground states, and therefore affects the degree of entanglement of the two electrons.

Mental effort induces a shift in the performance-difficulty function

description: In this study, we provide evidence for mental effort-induced modulations of performance in a simple motion discrimination task. Importantly, the performance modulation affected easy and difficult trials equally, indicating that it cannot be attributed to a selective adaptation (strategic, attentional, ...) to the most frequent trial condition in each block. The improvement of performance in the difficult blocks did not lead to increased RTs, indicating that it is not merely caused by an adjustment of the speed-accuracy trade-off. Surprisingly, and in contradiction with the literature, we found no effect of mental effort on the pupil response, even though more analysis of the pupillometric data is required.
Thermoelectric properties of InAs nanowires from full-band atomistic simulations

description: In this work we theoretically explore the effect of dimensionality on the thermoelectric power factor of InAs nanowires by coupling atomistic tight-binding calculations to the Linearized Boltzmann transport formalism. We consider nanowires with diameters from 40nm (bulk-like) down to 3nm (1D), which allows for the proper exploration of the power factor within a unified large-scale atomistic description across a large diameter range. We find that as the diameter of the nanowires is reduced below d < 10 nm, the Seebeck coefficient increases substantially, a consequence of strong subband quantization. Under phonon-limited scattering conditions, a considerable improvement of ~6x in the power factor is observed around d = 10 nm. The introduction of surface roughness scattering in the calculation reduces this power factor improvement to ~2x. As the diameter is decreased down to d = 3 nm, the power factor is diminished. Our results show that, although low effective mass materials such as InAs can reach low-dimensional behavior at larger diameters and demonstrate significant thermoelectric power factor improvements, surface roughness is also stronger at larger diameters, which takes most of the anticipated power factor advantages away. However, the power factor improvement that can be observed around d = 10 nm, could prove to be beneficial as both the Lorenz number and the phonon thermal conductivity are reduced at that diameter. Thus, this work, by using large-scale full-band simulations that span the corresponding length scales, clarifies properly the reasons behind power factor improvements (or degradations) in low-dimensional materials. The elaborate computational method presented can serve as a platform to develop similar schemes for 2D and 3D material electronic structures.

description: Point clouds, being the simple and compact representation of surface geometry of 3D objects, have gained increasing popularity with the evolution of deep learning networks for classification and segmentation tasks. Unlike human, teaching the machine to analyze the segments of an object is a challenging task and quite essential in various machine vision applications. In this paper, we address the problem of segmentation and labelling of the 3D point clouds by proposing a inception based deep network architecture called PIG-Net, that effectively characterizes the local and global geometric details of the point clouds. In PIG-Net, the local features are extracted from the transformed input points using the proposed inception layers and then aligned by feature transform. These local features are aggregated using the global average pooling layer to obtain the global features. Finally, feed the concatenated local and global features to the convolution layers for segmenting the 3D point clouds. We perform an exhaustive experimental analysis of the PIG-Net architecture on two state-of-the-art datasets, namely, ShapeNet [1] and PartNet [2]. We evaluate the effectiveness of our network by performing ablation study.

description: Alumina ultrathin films obtained by high temperature oxidation of a Ni$_3$Al (111) surface are a good template to grow regular arrays of metal clusters. Up to now two hexagonal organizations called 'dot' and 'network' structures have been observed with distances between clusters of 4.1 and 2.4 nm, respectively. In the present article we report on an investigation by in situ Grazing Incidence Small Angle X-ray Scattering (GISAXS), showing that Pt deposited at room temperature (RT) and for a low coverage forms a new hexagonal structure with a distance between clusters of 1.38 nm. For the first time, an assembly of tiny Pt clusters (1-6 atoms) with a very high density (5.85x10 13 cm$^{-2}$) and presenting a good organization on an alumina surface, is obtained. This system could be used to investigate by surface science techniques the new emerging field of Single Atom Catalysis (SAC). By deposition at 573 K small Pt clusters are organized on the network structure. By deposition of Pt at 573 K on pre-formed Pd seeds, large Pt (Pd) clusters containing a hundred of atoms are organized on the dot structure and they remain organized up to 733 K. We show that the three structures are interrelated. The different organizations of the Pt clusters on the alumina surface are explained by the presence of 3 types of sites corresponding to different adsorption energy for Pt atoms.

description: Main purpose of the present study is to recognize and map the temporal changes in the land cover/use with the use of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) and to study the socioeconomic factors that led to that change. The Municipality of Askio was chosen as a study area because it is a combination of mountainous and flat landscapes. The possibilities of Geographic Information Systems (GIS) have been exploited in order to achieve proper photointerpretation techniques in detection and mapping of land cover/use changes in aero photographs. Changes in the study area are mainly a result of alterations in management practices (changes in traditional pastoral systems), and also in demographic and socioeconomic changes. Land cover/use changes mostly concern the decline ofgrasslands and agricultural land by 20% and 17% and the increase of scrublands and oak and beech forests by 53%, 29% and 83% respectively. Main feature of the changes that have occurred in the land cove/use of the study area is the change in the structure of the ecosystems since both scrublands and forests became denser. 6.

description: Context. On October 24, 2007 the periodic comet 17P/Holmes underwent an astonishing outburst that increased its apparent total brightness from magnitude V\sim17 up to V\sim2.5 in roughly two days. We report on Wendelstein 0.8 m telescope (WST) photometric observations of the early evolution stages of the outburst. Aims. We studied the evolution of the structure morphology, its kinematic, and estimated the ejected dust mass. Methods. We analized 126 images in the BVRI photometric bands spread between 26/10/2007 and 20/11/2007. The bright comet core appeared well separated from that one of a quickly expanding dust cloud in all the data, and the bulk of the latter was contained in the field of view of our instrument. The ejected dust mass was derived on the base of differential photometry on background stars occulted by the moving cloud. Results. The two cores were moving apart from each other at a relative projected constant velocity of (9.87 +/- 0.07) arcsec/day (0.135 +/-0.001 km/sec). In the inner regions of the dust cloud we observed a linear increase in size at a mean constant velocity of (14.6+/-0.3) arcsec/day (0.200+/-0.004 km/sec). Evidence of a radial velocity gradient in the expanding cloud was also found. Our estimate for the expanding coma's mass was of the order of 10^{-2}-1 comet's mass implying a significant disintegration event. Conclusions. We interpreted our observations in the context of an explosive scenario which was more probably originated by some internal instability processes, rather than an impact with an asteroidal body. Due to the peculiar characteristics of this event, further observations and investigations are necessary in order to enlight the nature of the physical processes that determined it.

description: This research report describes a program of study directed at determining common factors which have contributed to the superior performances of selected sections of Portland cement concrete (PCC) pavements in Kentucky. The program involved an extensive survey of Kentucky's interstate, partway and other primary routes to determine locations of PCC pavement sections greater than 15 years old that had performed satisfactorily with minimal maintenance. Twelve of the best performing PCC pavements with long service life and heavy traffic were selected for detailed evaluations. Initial designs were documented and a series of in-situ pavement tests were conducted including core dnlling and materials sampling. Laboratory tests were conducted on the pavement samples to ascertain basic physical properties.

description: We formulate the problem of electron transport through a single-molecule magnet (SMM) in the Coulomb blockade regime taking into account topological interference effects for the tunneling of the large spin of a SMM. The interference originates from spin Berry phases associated with different tunneling paths. We show that in the case of incoherent spin states it is essential to place the SMM between oppositely spin-polarized source and drain leads in order to detect the spin tunneling in the stationary current, which exhibits topological zeros as a function of the transverse magnetic field.

Εξετάστηκαν τέσσερεις διαφορετικές αναλογίες λυμάτων χοίρων/ελιάς: α) 100/0 (αντιδραστήρες Α1, Α2), β) 80/20 (αντιδραστήρες Β1, Β2), γ) 60/40 (αντιδραστήρες C1, C2), δ) 30/70 (αντιδραστήρες D1, D2) διατηρώντας σταθερή τη συνολική ποσότητα των πτητικών στερεών σε κάθε αναλογία. Κάθε μεταχείριση είχε δύο επαναλήψεις. Κατά τη διάρκεια του πειράματος παρατηρήθηκε σημαντική αύξηση της παραγόμενης ποσότητας βιοαερίου όσο αυξανόταν η περιεχόμενη ποσότητα λυμάτων ελιάς, ενώ διαπιστώθηκε ραγδαία μείωση του παραγόμενου βιοαερίου στους αντιδραστήρες D1 και D2, κάτι που ερμηνεύεται από την απώλεια σταθερότητας της διαδικασίας, όταν η ποσότητα των λυμάτων ελιάς αυξηθεί πάνω από ένα κρίσιμο όριο.
description: In the present study, the energy efficiency of the anaerobic codigestion of pig manure (PM) with olive mill wastewater (OMW), under mesophilic conditions was investigated. Four PM/OMW ratios, with 2 samples in each treatment, were applied in each experimental run, namely 100/0 (reactors A1, A2), 80/20 (reactors B1, B2), 60/40 (reactors C1, C2), 30/70 (reactors D1, D2) in terms of standard amount of volatile solids (VS). The results of the experiment showed that the degradation of OMW was successfully during the codigestion with PM. A significant increase of the biogas quantity was observed, as the ratio of OMW was increased in each treatment. Also, a rapid reduction in the biogas production was noticed in the reactors D1 and D2, which is explained by the process stability loss as the ratio of OMW rises above a critical threshold.

description: Aerosolized droplets play a central role in the transmission of various infectious diseases, including Legionnaire's disease, gastroenteritis-causing norovirus, and most recently COVID-19. Respiratory droplets are known to be the most prominent source of transmission for COVID-19, however, alternative routes may exist given the discovery of small numbers of viable viruses in urine and stool samples. Flushing biomatter can lead to the aerosolization of microorganisms, thus, there is a likelihood that bioaerosols generated in public restrooms may pose a concern for the transmission of COVID-19, especially since these areas are relatively confined, experience heavy foot traffic, and may suffer from inadequate ventilation. To quantify the extent of aerosolization, we measure the size and number of droplets generated by flushing toilets and urinals in a public restroom. The results indicate that the particular designs tested in the study generate a large number of droplets in the size range 0.3$μm$ to 3$μm$, which can reach heights of at least 1.52m. Covering the toilet reduced aerosol levels but did not eliminate them completely, suggesting that aerosolized droplets escaped through small gaps between the cover and the seat. In addition to consistent increases in aerosol levels immediately after flushing, there was a notable rise in ambient aerosol levels due to the accumulation of droplets from multiple flushes conducted during the tests. This highlights the need for incorporating adequate ventilation in the design and operation of public spaces, which can help prevent aerosol accumulation in high occupancy areas and mitigate the risk of airborne disease transmission.

description: We use both the conventional and more recently developed methods of cluster analysis to study the data of extra-solar planets. Using the data set with planetary mass M, orbital period P, and orbital eccentricity e, we investigate the possible clustering in the ln M, ln P, ln P-ln M, e, and ln P-e spaces. There are two main implications: (1) mass distribution is continuous and (2) orbital population could be classified into three clusters, which correspond to the exoplanets in the regimes of tidal, on-going tidal and disc interaction, respectively.

description: The purpose of this work is to study the change in the structure of the Ge-Se network upon doping with Ag. The total structure factor S(Q) for two samples has been measured by neutron diffraction using the two-axis diffractometer dedicated to structural studies of amorphous materials, D4, at the Institut Laue Langevin. We have derived the corresponding radial distribution functions for each sample and each temperature, which gives us an insight about the composition and temperature dependence of the correlation distances and coordination numbers in the short-range. Our results are compatible with the presence of both GeSe4/2 tetrahedra and Se-Se bonds. The Ag atoms are linked to Se in a triangular environment. Numerical simulations allowing the identification of the main peaks in the total pair correlation functions have complemented the neutron diffraction measurements.

description: The extraction of k-mers from sequencing reads is an important task in many bioinformatics applications, such as all DNA sequence analysis methods based on de Bruijn graphs. These methods tend to be more accurate when the used k-mers are unique in the analyzed DNA, and thus the use of longer k-mers is preferred. When the read lengths of short read sequencing technologies increase, the error rate will become the determining factor for the largest possible value of k. Here we propose LoMeX which uses spaced seeds to extract long k-mers accurately even in the presence of sequencing errors. Our experiments show that LoMeX can extract long k-mers from current Illumina reads with a higher recall than a standard k-mer counting tool. Furthermore, our experiments on simulated data show that when the read length further increases, the performance of standard k-mer counters declines, whereas LoMeX still extracts long k-mers successfully.

description: Scenarios of large extra dimensions have enhanced the importance for the study of black holes in higher dimensions. In this paper, we analyze an axisymmetric system of two black holes. Specifically, the Bowen-York method is generalized for higher dimensions in order to calculate the initial data for head-on collision of two equal-mass black holes. Then, the initial data are evolved adopting the close-slow approximation to study gravitational waves emitted during the collision. We derive an empirical formula for radiation efficiency, which depends weakly on the dimensionality. Possible implications of our results for the black hole formation in particle colliders are discussed.

Propagation of a plane-strain hydraulic fracture accounting for a rough cohesive zone

description: The quasi-brittle nature of rocks challenges the basic assumptions of linear hydraulic fracture mechanics (LHFM): linear elastic fracture mechanics and smooth parallel plates lubrication fluid flow. We relax these hypotheses and investigate the growth of a plane-strain hydraulic fracture in an impermeable medium accounting for a rough cohesive zone and a fluid lag. In addition to a dimensionless toughness and the time-scale of coalescence of the fluid and fracture fronts as in the LHFM case, the solution now also depends on the in-situ-to-cohesive stress ratio and the intensity of the flow deviation induced by aperture roughness. The solution is appropriately described by a nucleation time-scale, which delineates the fracture growth into a nucleation phase, an intermediate stage and a late time stage where convergence toward LHFM predictions finally occurs. A highly non-linear hydro-mechanical coupling takes place as the fluid front enters the rough cohesive zone which itself evolves during the nucleation and intermediate stages. This coupling leads to significant additional viscous flow dissipation. As a result, the fracture evolution deviates from LHFM solutions with shorter fracture lengths, larger widths and net pressures. These deviations ultimately decrease at late times as the lag and cohesive zone fractions both become smaller. The deviations increase with larger dimensionless toughness and in-situ-to-cohesive stress ratio, as both further localize viscous dissipation near the fluid front located in the rough cohesive zone. The convergence toward LHFM can occur at very late time for realistic values of in-situ-to-cohesive stress ratio encountered at depth. The impact of a rough cohesive zone appears to be prominent for laboratory experiments and short in-situ injections in quasi-brittle rocks with ultimately a larger energy demand compared to LHFM predictions.

Beating Random Assignment for Approximating Quantum 2-Local Hamiltonian Problems

description: The quantum k-Local Hamiltonian problem is a natural generalization of classical constraint satisfaction problems (k-CSP) and is complete for QMA, a quantum analog of NP. Although the complexity of k-Local Hamiltonian problems has been well studied, only a handful of approximation results are known. For Max 2-Local Hamiltonian where each term is a rank 3 projector, a natural quantum generalization of classical Max 2-SAT, the best known approximation algorithm was the trivial random assignment, yielding a 0.75-approximation. We present the first approximation algorithm beating this bound, a classical polynomial-time 0.764-approximation. For strictly quadratic instances, which are maximally entangled instances, we provide a 0.801 approximation algorithm, and numerically demonstrate that our algorithm is likely a 0.821-approximation. We conjecture these are the hardest instances to approximate. We also give improved approximations for quantum generalizations of other related classical 2-CSPs. Finally, we exploit quantum connections to a generalization of the Grothendieck problem to obtain a classical constant-factor approximation for the physically relevant special case of strictly quadratic traceless 2-Local Hamiltonians on bipartite interaction graphs, where a inverse logarithmic approximation was the best previously known (for general interaction graphs). Our work employs recently developed techniques for analyzing classical approximations of CSPs and is intended to be accessible to both quantum information scientists and classical computer scientists.

description: Kinetics of crystallization of two amorphous alloys, Fe70Cr10B20 and Fe80Zr10B10, have been followed up by neutron thermodiffractometry experiments performed in the two axis diffractometer D20 (ILL, Grenoble). The structural changes are directly correlated with the temperature dependence of the magnetization. Fe70Cr10B20 crystallizes following a two-step process: an eutectic crystallization of alfa-Fe (bcc) and the metastable tetragonal phase (Fe0.8Cr0.2)3B followed by another eutectic transformation to the stable phase (Fe0.75Cr0.25)2B and more segregation of alfa-Fe. These tetragonal phases are magnetically anisotropic, giving rise to a large increase of the coercivity. This behaviour is similar to that of Fe80B20 alloys, with Cr atoms replacing the Fe positions in both crystalline phases. Fe80Zr10B10 shows also a two-step process in which two polymorphic transformations take place.

Sensitivity of Remote Focusing Microscopes to Magnification Mismatch

description: Remote focusing (RF) is a technique that greatly extends the aberration-free axial scan range of an optical microscope. To maximise the diffraction limited depth range in an RF system, the magnification of the relay lenses should be such that the pupil planes of the objectives are accurately mapped on to each other. In this paper we study the tolerance of the RF system to magnification mismatch and quantify the amount of residual spherical aberration present at different focusing depths. We observe that small deviations from ideal magnification results in increased amounts of residual spherical aberration terms leading to a reduction in the dynamic range. For high numerical aperture objectives, the simulation predicts a 50% decrease in the dynamic range for 1% magnification mismatch. The simulation has been verified against an experimental RF system with ideal and non-ideal magnifications. Experimentally confirmed predictions also provide a valuable empirical method of determining when a system is close to the ideal phase matching condition, based on the sign of the spherical aberration on either side of focus.

description: We investigate the high energy behaviour of vector boson scattering in the electroweak sector of the standard model. In analogy with the BFKL analysis in QCD we compute production amplitudes in the multi-Regge limit and derive, for the vacuum exchange channel, the integral equation for vector particle scattering. We also derive and solve the bootstrap equations for the isospin-1 exchange channel, both for the reggeizing charged and non-reggeizing neutral vector bosons.

Phase Behaviour of Binary Hard-Sphere Mixtures: Free Volume Theory Including Reservoir Hard-Core Interactions

description: Comprehensive calculations were performed to predict the phase behaviour of large spherical colloids mixed with small spherical colloids that act as depletant. To this end, the free volume theory (FVT) of Lekkerkerker et al. [Europhys. Lett. 20 (1992) 559] is used as a basis and is extended to explicitly include the hard-sphere character of colloidal depletants into the expression for the free volume fraction. Taking the excluded volume of the depletants into account in both the system and the reservoir provides a relation between the depletant concentration in the reservoir and in the system that accurately matches with computer simulation results of Dijkstra et al. [Phys. Rev. E 59 (1999) 5744]. Moreover, the phase diagrams for highly asymmetric mixtures with size ratios q . 0:2 obtained by using this new approach corroborates simulation results significantly better than earlier FVT applications to binary hard-sphere mixtures. The phase diagram of a binary hard-sphere mixture with a size ratio of q = 0:4, where a binary interstitial solid solution is formed at high densities, is investigated using a numerical free volume approach. At this size ratio, the obtained phase diagram is qualitatively different from previous FVT approaches for hard-sphere and penetrable depletants, but again compares well with simulation predictions.

The rotation curves of flattened Sersic bulges

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: I present a method to deproject the observed intensity profile of an axisymmetric bulge with arbitrary flattening to derive the 3D luminosity density profile and to calculate the contribution of the bulge to the rotation curve. I show the rotation curves for a family of fiducial bulges with Sersic surface brightness profiles and with various concentrations and intrinsic axis ratios. Both parameters have a profound impact on the shape of the rotation curve. In particular, I show how the peak rotation velocity, as well as the radius where it is reached, depend on both parameters. I also discuss the implications of the flattening of a bulge for the decomposition of a rotation curve and use the case of NGC 5533 to show the errors that result from neglecting it. For NGC 5533, neglecting the flattening of the bulge leads to an overestimate of its mass-to-light ratio by approximately 30% and an underestimate of the contributions from the stellar disc and dark matter halo in the regions outside the bulge-dominated area.

description: This thesis investigates the acute phenomenology of altered states of consciousness induced through psychedelics and various Zen practices through the lens of comparative mysticism. Through inductive reasoning, tentative conclusions are drawn regarding how the acute phenomenological qualities of these states compare to one another. This topic had not been meaningfully studied, so the data from which these conclusions were drawn is limited. Though these findings are tentative, they have important implications for the study of comparative mysticism involving psychedelics, and for policy decisions regarding the credentialing of newly trained psychedelic therapists. Further research is required to draw more definitive conclusions on whether psychedelics users and Zen practitioners are having the same sorts of experiences, and this thesis identifies some of the theoretical challenges that can be expected with such research, particularly with regards to the reliability of qualitative data collection methods. To address these challenges, a novel theoretical approach to the study of comparative mysticism involving psychedelic and non-psychedelic altered states of consciousness has been developed.
