description: Indium demand has increased due to the production of cell phone screens, solar cells, alloys, and LED displays. This suggests a need for increased exploration, which can aide in constraining where in space and time indium-bearing deposits are likely to form.  Exploration vectors are suggested based on results of experiments conducted on the partitioning behavior of indium between ferromagnesian (biotite and amphibole), a felsic melt, and vapor phases.  D_In^(Bt/Melt) ranges from 0.6 ± 0.1 (1 σm) to 16 ± 3 (1 σm) and is a function of the biotite composition, with D_In^(Bt/Melt) decreasing with increasing X_Annite^Bt.  D_In^(Am/Melt) is 36 ± 4 (1σm) and D_In^(Vapor/Melt) is ~17 ± 5 (1σm).  Exploration vectors suggest that granites that lack amphibole and contain iron-rich biotite have a higher potential to be associated with indium-bearing deposits.

description: Pest management practices that conserve beneficial organisms and improve yield are needed. This research aims to determine how: 1) red clover living mulch impacts insect herbivores, arthropod natural enemies, and cucumber quality and yield, and 2) wolf spiders influence cucumber beetles and cucumber plant attributes. Herbivore and natural enemy abundances on cucumber plants in plots with and without interplanted red clover (RC) were compared using foliage searches and sticky cards. Effects of spiders on cucumber beetle behavior, densities, and mortality was assessed in cages with and without a wolf spider and/or their cues. RC plots had fewer striped cucumber beetles and aphids, and more big-eyed bugs and minute pirate bugs. Spotted cucumber beetle densities were reduced and striped cucumber beetle mortality was higher in cages with than without spiders. These studies demonstrated that red clover living mulch and wolf spiders can be used to decrease pest arthropods in cucumber.

description: There exists some consensus that stellar mass surface density ($Σ_{*}$) and molecular gas mass surface density ($Σ_{\rm mol}$) are the main quantities responsible for locally setting the star formation rate. This regulation is inferred from locally resolved scaling relations between these two quantities and the star formation rate surface density ($Σ_{\rm SFR}$). However, the universality of these relations is debated. Here, we probe the interplay between these three quantities across different galactic environments at a spatial resolution of 150 pc. We perform a hierarchical Bayesian linear regression to find the best set of parameters $C_{*}$, $C_{\rm mol}$, and $C_{\rm norm}$ that describe the star-forming plane conformed by these quantities, such that $\log Σ_{\rm SFR} = C_{*} \log Σ_{*} + C_{\rm mol} \log Σ_{\rm mol} + C_{\rm norm}$, and explore variations in the determined parameters across galactic environments, focusing our analysis on the $C_{*}$ and $C_{\rm mol}$ slopes. We find signs of variations in the posterior distributions of $C_{*}$ and $C_{\rm mol}$ across different galactic environments. Bars show the most negative value of $C_{*}$, a sign of longer depletion times, while spiral arms show the highest $C_{*}$ among all environments. We conclude that systematic variations in the interplay of $Σ_{*}$, $Σ_{\rm mol}$ and $Σ_{\rm SFR}$ across galactic environments exist at a spatial resolution of 150 pc, and we interpret these variations as produced by an additional mechanism regulating the formation of stars that is not captured by either $Σ_{*}$ or $Σ_{\rm mol}$. We find that these variations correlate with changes in the star formation efficiency across environments, which could be linked to the dynamical state of the gas that prevents it from collapsing and forming stars, or to changes in the molecular gas fraction.

Clarifying the Pathways to Polyvictimization: The Role of Parental Criminality
Creators: name: Miller, Jessica
Publisher: name: Digital Repository at the University of Maryland
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: Criminology
subject: FOS: Law

description: Polyvictimization, an individual’s experience of multiple types of victimization, has been of increasing interest in victimology over the past decade.  Several studies have been conducted to examine the consequences of polyvictimization, but comparatively less attention has been paid to the risk factors for polyvictimization.  Based on its relationship with offending and based on work highlighting the family as a salient context of victimization, the present study will focus on one particular potential risk factor: parental criminality.  Using data from the National Survey of Adolescents, the thesis tests whether there is a relationship between parental criminality and polyvictimization.  It also tests whether gender moderates that relationship, as little research has tested gender differences in risk of polyvictimization.  Logistic regression models demonstrate a significant relationship between parental criminality and polyvictimization, but do not support the hypothesis that gender moderates the relationship.
LANGUAGE PHENOTYPING IN YOUNG CHILDREN WITH CONCUSSION

Subjects: subject: Language

description: Mild traumatic brain injuries (mTBIs) are typically viewed as those that do not result in prolonged periods of unconsciousness. Concussions, or the mildest form of brain injury, are the most prevalent in young children. Presently no single framework or screening assessment measure exists for language in young children. In this study, children who had recently experienced a concussion were compared with children who had no history of head injury on a battery of linguistic and cognitive-linguistic tasks. Group differences in both lexical- and discourse-level skills were identified, as well as domain-general cognitive skills. Significant differences were noted in category identification, phonological working memory, grammaticality judgment, segregation and selective attention to spoken instructions in the presence of a distractor, visually recognizing spoken targets presented in a short story, and visual non-verbal problem solving, all with moderate effect sizes. This research will inform classroom and in-home accommodations to assist children during the period of recovery.
INVESTIGATING THE INFLUENCE OF SOCIAL EXCLUSION ON FACE PROCESSING

Subjects: subject: Social psychology
subject: Cognitive psychology

description: Because social exclusion leads to adverse effects, excluded individuals exhibit altered social information processing. In particular, these individuals process social information from faces differently than their included counterparts.  However, the cognitive mechanisms leading to this difference are unknown. The goal of the present study was to investigate whether or not a decrease in holistic processing, and consequent increase in attention to individual facial features, might characterize some of the observed effects of exclusion on how people process facial information. Adult participants were either excluded or included during a game of Cyberball and then completed the Vanderbilt Holistic Face Processing Task (VHFPT). Excluded and included individuals did not differ in performance on the VHFPT, suggesting that excluded individuals do not attend to facial features differently than included individuals. Results are discussed in conjunction with previous research and future directions.

description: A benchmark-quality potential energy curve is reported for the H$_3$ system in collinear nuclear configurations. The electronic Schrödinger equation is solved using explicitly correlated Gaussian (ECG) basis functions using an optimized fragment initialization technique that significantly reduces the computational cost. As a result, the computed energies improve upon recent orbital-based and ECG computations. Starting from a well-converged basis set, a potential energy curve with an estimated sub-parts-per-billion precision is generated for a series of nuclear configurations using an efficient ECG rescaling approach.

description: NADPH oxidase 4 (NOX4) inhibition has been reported to mitigate diabetes-induced beta-cell dysfunction and improve survival in vitro, as well as counteract high-fat diet-induced glucose intolerance in mice. We investigated the antidiabetic effects of the selective NOX4 inhibitor GLX7013159 in vivo in athymic diabetic mice transplanted with human islets over a period of 4 weeks. The GLX7013159-treated mice achieved lower blood glucose and water consumption throughout the treatment period. Furthermore, GLX7013159 treatment resulted in improved insulin and c-peptide levels, better insulin secretion capacity, as well as in greatly reduced apoptotic rates of the insulin-positive human cells, measured as colocalization of insulin and cleaved caspase-3. We conclude that the antidiabetic effects of NOX4 inhibition by GLX7013159 are observed also during a prolonged study period in vivo and are likely to be due to an improved survival and function of the human beta-cells.

description: A Poincaré-covariant quark+diquark Faddeev equation is used to develop insights into the structure of the four lightest $(I,J^P=\tfrac{3}{2},\tfrac{3}{2}^\pm)$ baryon multiplets. Whilst these systems can contain isovector-axialvector and isovector-vector diquarks, one may neglect the latter and still arrive at a reliable description. The $(\tfrac{3}{2},\tfrac{3}{2}^+)$ states are the simpler systems, with features that bear some resemblance to quark model pictures, \emph{e.g}., their most prominent rest-frame orbital angular momentum component is $\mathsf S$-wave and the $Δ(1600)\tfrac{3}{2}^+$ may reasonably be viewed as a radial excitation of the $Δ(1232)\tfrac{3}{2}^+$. The $(\tfrac{3}{2},\tfrac{3}{2}^-)$ states are more complex: the $Δ(1940)\tfrac{3}{2}^-$ expresses little of the character of a radial excitation of the $Δ(1700)\tfrac{3}{2}^-$; and whilst the rest-frame wave function of the latter is predominantly $\mathsf P$-wave, the leading piece in the $Δ(1940)\tfrac{3}{2}^-$ wave function is $\mathsf S$-wave, in conflict with quark model expectations. Experiments that can test these predictions, such as large momentum transfer resonance electroexcitation, may shed light on the nature of emergent hadron mass.

description: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is one of an increasing number of diseases that causes irreversible impairment and loss of vision in the elderly. AMD occurs by oxidative stress-mediated apoptosis of retinal pigment epithelium cells. The onset of AMD may be positively correlated with the exposure to blue light. We screened food-derived carotenoids for cytoprotective action against blue light irradiation using human ARPE-19 retinal pigment epithelium cells. This study revealed that blue light irradiation triggered apoptosis and oxidative stress in all-trans-retinal (atRAL)-exposed ARPE-19 cells by generating singlet oxygen (1O2), leading to significant cell death. We found that astaxanthin, a potent anti-oxidative xanthophyll abundant in several marine organisms including microalgae, salmon, and shrimp, significantly suppresses blue light-induced apoptotic cell death of atRAL-exposed ARPE-19 cells by scavenging 1O2. Mechanistic studies using the blue-light irradiated cells also demonstrated that the cytoprotective effects of astaxanthin can be attributed to scavenging of 1O2 directly. Our results suggest the potential value of astaxanthin as a dietary strategy to prevent blue light-induced retinal degeneration including AMD. Blue light irradiation triggered apoptosis and oxidative stress in all-trans-retinal (atRAL)-exposed human ARPE-19 retinal pigment epithelium cells by generating singlet oxygen (1O2), leading to significant cell death. Astaxanthin, a potent anti-oxidative xanthophyll abundant in several marine organisms including microalgae, salmon, and shrimp, significantly suppresses blue light-induced cell death of atRAL-exposed ARPE-19 cells. Astaxanthin inhibited apoptosis and oxidative stress induced by blue light by directly scavenging 1O2.

description: Peer deviance is one of the strongest and most consistent predictors of delinquency. However, social interactions among adolescents and their peers do not happen in a vacuum. In particular, school is a critical social context for peer interactions. It is possible that school climate may alter the strength of the link between peer deviance and personal delinquency. The current project investigated the potential moderating effects of two dimensions/sub-categories of school climate, school communal social organization and discipline management, on the association between peer deviance and personal delinquency using Add Health data. Results indicated students who were more committed to school were more vulnerable to peer influence, and school-level factors did not have any impact on the peer deviance-delinquency relationship.

description: It is well known that the dynamical system determined by a Quispel-Roberts-Thompson map (a QRT map) preserves a pencil of biquadratic polynomial curves on ${\mathbb{CP}}^1 \times {\mathbb{CP}}^1$. In most cases this pencil is elliptic, i.e. its generic member is a smooth algebraic curve of genus one, and the system can be solved as a translation on the elliptic fiber to which the initial point belongs. However, this procedure is rather complicated to handle, especially in the normalization process. In this paper, for a given initial point on an invariant elliptic curve, we present a method to construct the solution directly in terms of the Weierstrass sigma function, using Kajiwara-Noumi-Yamada's parametric representation of elliptic curves.

description: In criminological research, scholars present learning and social control theories as competing explanations for criminal behavior. While this has extended to specific offenses and analogous behaviors, it has less frequently been related to ideologically-motivated extremist behavior. This study considers the explanatory power of these two schools of criminological thought as they predict individual participation in violent ideologically motivated extremist behaviors using a recently collected individual-level dataset. A combination of Multivariate Imputation through Chained Equations (MICE), Exploratory Factor Analysis, and logistic regression is used to examine the relationship between theoretical measures and the probability of violent extremist behavior. Ultimately, this thesis finds: (1) having stronger social bonds is associated with a lower probability of violent ideologically motivated behavior, (2) the social learning of violence is associated with a higher probability of violent ideologically motivated behavior, and (3) these relationships depend somewhat upon the ideological milieu of the individual.

description: Recent studies have revealed intriguing similarities between the contribution of wormholes to the gravitational path integral and the phenomenon of replica symmetry breaking observed in spin glasses and other disordered systems. Interestingly, these configurations may also be important for the explanation of the information paradox of quantum black holes. Motivated by these developments, we investigate the thermodynamic properties of a $PT$-symmetric system composed of two random non-Hermitian Hamiltonians with no explicit coupling between them. After performing ensemble averaging, we identify numerically and analytically a robust first-order phase transition in the free energy of two models with quantum chaotic dynamics: the elliptic Ginibre ensemble of random matrices and a non-Hermitian Sachdev-Ye-Kitaev (SYK) model. The free energy of the Ginibre model is temperature-independent in the low-temperature phase. The SYK model has a similar behavior for sufficiently low temperature, then it experiences a possible continuous phase transition to a phase with a temperature-dependent free energy before the first-order transition takes place at a higher temperature. We identify the order parameter of the first-order phase transition and obtain analytical expressions for the critical temperature. The mechanism behind the transition is the existence of replica symmetry breaking configurations coupling Left and Right replicas that control the low-temperature limit of the partition function. We speculate that quantum chaos may be necessary for the observed dominance of off-diagonal replica symmetry breaking configurations in the low-temperature limit.

description: Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) is defined by inflammation and emphysema. Sirtuins (SIRT) are NAD+-dependent histone deacetylases that regulate oxidative stress and inflammation. The present work investigates the modulatory role of SIRT-2 in experimental COPD model. Insilico comparative assessment of SIRT-2 inhibitors (AK-7 and AGK-2) by ADMET and molecular docking revealed AK-7 as suitable candidate for invivo application. COPD in mice was established by cigarette smoke (CS) exposure for 2 months. AK-7 (100 µg/kg and 200 µg/kg body weight) was administered intranasally one hour before CS exposure. The present investigation demonstrates that CS exposure increases total cell count, and free radical production (total reactive oxygen species, total oxidant status, myeloperoxidase, and nitric oxide), which were decreased by AK-7. It also altered antioxidant enzymatic activity (total antioxidant status, catalase, superoxide dismutase, glutathione peroxidase, glutathione-s-transferase, glutathione reductase, and reduced glutathione), hence preserving the redox balance. AK-7 significantly decreases apoptosis, protein carbonylation, lipid peroxidation, TNF-α and IFN-ﻻ levels represent COPD generation in mice and were dramatically decreased by AK-7. Histopathological studies shows that CS exposure damages alveoli and produces peribronchiolar inflammation; both of these events were reduced by AK-7. The antioxidative potency of AK-7 was confirmed by observing Nrf2 and Keap1 proteins. Keap-dependent Nrf2 regulation was observed, with cytosolic Nrf2 and Keap1 expression elevated in COPD and reduced in the AK-7 group while nuclear Nrf2 was reduced in COPD and increased in the AK-7 group. The present study concludes that inhibition of SIRT-2 minimizes COPD severity and mediates therapeutic effects in the lungs.

description: The term Executive Functions (EFs) denotes higher cognitive functions that are responsible for controlling and coordinating mental processes, serving the attainment of behavioral goals. The construct, albeit lacking a concise definition, includes an array of meta-cognitive processes such as inhibition, set-shifting, working memory, and verbal fluency. It has been shown that EFs can be divided into subfunctions, having both common and separable behavioral underpinnings that share a polygenic basis, and are distinct from but related to general intelligence. Neurotypical EF critically depends on the integrity of the prefrontal cortex, and its interconnected areas. Importantly, EFs are impaired in many mental disorders, e.g. in schizophrenia. The present thesis summarizes five studies that focus on different areas of the EF construct. Some studies have a methodological emphasis, and most of them are relevant to the longitudinal course of EFs across the lifespan. Behavioral (Heilbronner & Pollmann, 2010), neuronal (Heilbronner & Münte, 2013), clinical (Heilbronner et al., 2016), and genomic (Heilbronner, Papiol, et al., 2021, Wendel et al., 2021) aspects are addressed. Results show EFs to dynamically change across the life span, both in health and disease, with a pronounced genetic influence. Future research on EF could benefit from the integration of cross-sectional and longitudinal data, and from the use of latent phenotypes.

description: Coordination of metal ions by the tetrapyrrolic macrocyclic ring of porphyrin-based photosensitizers (PSs) affects their photophysical properties and consequently, their photodynamic activity. Diamagnetic metals increase the singlet oxygen quantum yield while paramagnetic metals have the opposite effect. Since singlet oxygen is considered the main cell-damaging species in photodynamic therapy (PDT), the nature of the chelated cation would directly affect PDT efficacy. This expectation, however, is not always supported by experimental results and numerous exceptions have been reported. Understanding the effect of the chelated metal is hindered because different chelators were used. The aim of this work was to investigate the effect of the nature of chelated cation on the photophysical and photodynamic properties of metalloporphyrins, using the same tetrapyrrole core as a chelator of Ag(II), Cu(II), Fe(III), In(III), Mn(III), or Zn(II). Results demonstrated that with the exception of Ag(II), all paramagnetic metalloporphyrins were inefficient as generators of singlet oxygen and did not act as PSs. In contrast, the coordination of diamagnetic ions produced highly efficient PSs. The unexpected photodynamic activity of the Ag(II)-containing porphyrin was attributed to reduction of the chelated Ag(II) to Ag(I) or to demetallation of the complex, caused by cellular reductants and/or by exposure to light. Our results indicate that in biological systems, where PSs localize to various organelles and are subjected to the action of enzymes, reactive metabolites, and reducing or oxidizing agents, their physicochemical and photosensitizing properties change. Consequently, the photophysical properties alone cannot predict the anticancer efficacy of a PS.

description: Our main goal is to study the formation of rocky planets and the first $100~\textrm{Myr}$ of their dynamical evolution around a star with mass $0.08 M_\odot$ close to the substellar mass limit. We developed two sets of $N$-body simulations assuming an embryo population affected by tidal and general relativistic effects refined by the inclusion of the spin-up and contraction of the central star, and immerse in a gas disk during the first 10 Myr. Each set of simulations incorporates a different prescription from literature to calculate the interaction between the gas-disk and the embryos: one widely used prescription based on results from hydrodynamics simulations, and a recent prescription based on the analytic treatment of dynamical friction. We found that given a standard disk model, the dynamical evolution and the final architectures of the resulting rocky planets is strongly related with the prescription used to treat the interaction within the gas and the embryos, having a big impact on the resulting close-in planet population and particularly on those located inside the habitable zone. We found a good agreement within the distribution of period ratio of adjacent confirmed exoplanets observed around very low mass stars and brown dwarfs and those obtained from our simulations only when the prescription based on dynamical friction for gas-embryo interaction is used. Our results also reproduce a close-in planet population of interest located inside the habitable zone. A fraction of those planets will be exposed for a long period of time to the stellar irradiation inside the inner edge of the evolving habitable zone until the zone reaches them.

description: Tuning machine parameters of particle accelerators is a repetitive and time-consuming task that is challenging to automate. While many off-the-shelf optimization algorithms are available, in practice their use is limited because most methods do not account for safety-critical constraints in each iteration, such as loss signals or step-size limitations. One notable exception is safe Bayesian optimization, which is a data-driven tuning approach for global optimization with noisy feedback. We propose and evaluate a step-size limited variant of safe Bayesian optimization on two research facilities of the Paul Scherrer Institut (PSI): a) the Swiss Free Electron Laser (SwissFEL) and b) the High-Intensity Proton Accelerator (HIPA). We report promising experimental results on both machines, tuning up to 16 parameters subject to 224 constraints.
