description: The accurate (or even approximate) solution of the equations that govern the dynamics of dissipative quantum systems remains a challenging task for quantum science. While several algorithms have been designed to solve those equations with different degrees of flexibility, they rely mainly on highly expensive iterative schemes. Most recently, deep neural networks have been used for quantum dynamics but current architectures are highly dependent on the physics of the particular system and usually limited to population dynamics. Here we introduce an artificial-intelligence-based surrogate model that solves dissipative quantum dynamics by parameterizing quantum propagators as Fourier neural operators, which we train using both dataset and physics-informed loss functions. Compared with conventional algorithms, our quantum neural propagator avoids time-consuming iterations and provides a universal super-operator that can be used to evolve any initial quantum state for arbitrarily long times. To illustrate the wide applicability of the approach, we employ our quantum neural propagator to compute population dynamics and time-correlation functions of the Fenna-Matthews-Olson complex.

description: Objectives: Polymorphisms of IKAROS family zinc finger 1 (IKZF1) have been found to be associated with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) by genome-wide association studies (GWAS). The aim of the current study was to investigate the association between IKZF1 functional variants and lupus nephritis (LN) in a northern Han Chinese population and analyse their relationship with clinical and pathological phenotypes in LN. Method: The association between IKZF1 functional variants and LN was analysed for the lead variant rs1456896 with both GWAS and expression quantitative trait loci (eQTL) top hits in 500 LN patients and 500 healthy controls. Replication was conducted in an independent cohort comprising 798 LN patients and 704 healthy controls. Using the ENCODE (Encyclopedia of DNA Elements) databases, functional annotations and differential gene expression data were evaluated. Results: A significant association between the single nuclear polymorphism (SNP) rs1456896 and susceptibility to LN was observed in the two different cohorts (p = 9.32 × 10−3 and p = 3.00 × 10−2) and reinforced in combination (p = 1.36 × 10−3). In silico analysis indicates that rs1456896 is a regulatory variant and lower mRNA expressions of IKZF1 were observed in both peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) and renal biopsies from SLE patients compared to normal controls. Although patients with the protective genotype AA of rs1456896 seemed to have more pronounced clinical manifestations and a lower ratio of histological classes III and IV, no significant associations between rs1456896 genotypes and sub-phenotypes of LN were detected. Conclusions: Our results suggest that the rs1456896 A allele is associated with protective susceptibility to LN. However, this association did not seem to be implicated in the disease and histopathological severity of LN in the current population.

description: At City Road, Chester, an archaeological excavation and watching brief uncovered evidence for a late-first-/early-second-century industrial building adjacent to field boundary ditches and a buried cultivation soil. A later cultivation deposit, representing a hiatus in activity from the third century onwards, sealed all earlier features. Pits in the northeast corner of the site contained evidence for metalworking in the thirteenth to fourteenth century, while post-medieval pits, structures and layers indicate metalworking in the vicinity during the seventeenth and eighteenth centuries. The site was repeatedly cleared for both the construction of Victorian terraced housing in the nineteenth century and redevelopment for a garage in the mid-twentieth century. The report includes

description: The trace-free Einstein equations contain one equation less than the complete field equations. In a static and spherically symmetric spacetime, the number of field equations is thus reduced to two. The equation of pressure isotropy of general relativity, however, is preserved thus showing that any known perfect fluid spacetime is a suitable candidate for the trace-free scenario. The extra freedom in imposing two constraints may now be exploited to include polytopes, something that is difficult in general relativity. The point here is that using any known exact solution one can find a polytropic star for various values of the polytropic index. One arrives at Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff type equations and can study their solutions explicitly. Two examples of well-known stellar distributions that generate polytropes with physically reasonable behaviour are discussed. These models are regular, exhibit a sound speed that is never superluminal and are adiabatically stable in the sense of Chandrasekhar. We investigate a compactness measure confirming that our results are consistent with some observational data.

description: In 2015, Germany experienced a record high influx of refugees – and received international praise for its ‘welcome culture’. At the same time, however, attacks on refugees rose to an alarming level. This article describes the distribution of these attacks and probes their causes, using detailed socioeconomic and political data while modelling a hierarchical data structure. Controlling for further relevant factors taken from the extant literature, the analysis first tests whether the strength of extreme right political parties plays a role and, second, it models a contagion effect, taking into account spatial as well as temporal proximity. The findings suggest that the strength of right-wing parties in a district considerably boosts the probability of attacks on refugees in that area. They also corroborate the idea of behavioural contagion. The set of social-structural variables employed as controls yielded only limited explanatory power.

description: Varying-coefficient regression is a popular statistical tool that models the way a certain variable modulates the effect of other predictors nonlinearly. However, a majority of the VC regression models consider univariate responses; the case of multivariate responses have received relatively lesser attention. In this paper, we propose a robust multivariate varying-coefficient model based on rank loss that models the relationships among different responses via reduced-rank regression and penalized variable selection. Some asymptotic results are also established for the proposed methods. Using synthetic data, we investigate the finite sample performance and robustness properties of the estimator. We also illustrate our methodology by application to a real dataset on periodontal disease.

description: Hydrogen radical attacks and subsequent hydrogen migrations are considered to play an important role in the atomic-scale mechanisms of diamond chemical vapour deposition growth. We perform a comprehensive analysis of the reactions involving H-radical and vacancies on H-passivated diamond surfaces exposed to hydrogen radical-rich atmosphere. By means of first principles calculations -- density functional theory and climbing image nudged elastic band method -- transition states related to these mechanisms are identified and characterised. In addition, accurate reaction rates are computed using variational transition state theory. Together, these methods provide -- for a broad range of temperatures and hydrogen radical concentrations -- a picture of the relative likelihood of the migration or radical attack processes, along with a statistical description of the hydrogen coverage fraction of the (100) H-passivated surface, refining earlier results via a more thorough analysis of the processes at stake. Additionally, the migration of H-vacancy is shown to be anisotropic, and occurring preferentially across the dimer rows of the reconstructed surface. The approach used in this work can be generalised to other crystallographic orientations of diamond surfaces or other semiconductors.

description: Prior research on Twitter (now X) data has provided positive evidence of its utility in developing supplementary health surveillance systems. In this study, we present a new framework to surveil public health, focusing on mental health (MH) outcomes. We hypothesize that locally posted tweets are indicative of local MH outcomes and collect tweets posted from 765 neighborhoods (census block groups) in the USA. We pair these tweets from each neighborhood with the corresponding MH outcome reported by the Center for Disease Control (CDC) to create a benchmark dataset, LocalTweets. With LocalTweets, we present the first population-level evaluation task for Twitter-based MH surveillance systems. We then develop an efficient and effective method, LocalHealth, for predicting MH outcomes based on LocalTweets. When used with GPT3.5, LocalHealth achieves the highest F1-score and accuracy of 0.7429 and 79.78\%, respectively, a 59\% improvement in F1-score over the GPT3.5 in zero-shot setting. We also utilize LocalHealth to extrapolate CDC's estimates to proxy unreported neighborhoods, achieving an F1-score of 0.7291. Our work suggests that Twitter data can be effectively leveraged to simulate neighborhood-level MH outcomes.

description: In this study, molecular binding affinity was investigated for Nefopam analogues (NFs), a functionalized benzoxazocine, with human serum albumin (HSA), a major transport protein in the blood. Its binding affinity and concomitant changes in its conformation, binding site and simulations were also studied. Fluorescence data revealed that the fluorescence quenching of HSA upon binding of NFs analogues is based on a static mechanism. The three analogues of NFs binding constants (KA) are in the order of NF3 > NF2 > NF1 with values of 1.53 ± .057 × 104, 2.16 ± .071 × 104 and 3.6 ± .102 × 105 M−1, respectively. Concurrently, thermodynamic parameters indicate that the binding process was spontaneous, and the complexes were stabilized mostly by hydrophobic interactions, except for NF2 has one hydrogen bond stabilizes it along with hydrophobic interactions. Circular dichroism (CD) studies revealed that there is a decrease in α-helix with an increase in β-sheets and random coils signifying partial unfolding of the protein upon binding of NFs, which might be due to the formation of NFs-HSA complexes. Further, molecular docking studies showed that NF1, NF2 and NF3 bound to subdomains IIIA, IB and IIA through hydrophobic interactions. However, NF1 have additionally formed a single hydrogen bond with LYS 413. Furthermore, molecular simulations unveiled that NFs binding was in support with the structural perturbation observed in CD, which is evident from the root mean square deviation and Rg fluctuations. We hope our insights will provide ample scope for engineering new drugs based on the resemblances with NFs for enhanced efficacy with HSA.

description: We present a numerical calculation of the expectation value of the quantum angular-momentum current flux density for a scalar field in the Unruh state near the inner horizon of a Kerr-de Sitter black hole. Our results indicate that this flux diverges as $V_-^{-1}$ in a suitable Kruskal coordinate such that $V_-=0$ at the inner horizon. Depending on the parameter values of the scalar field and black hole that we consider, and depending on the polar angle (latitude), this flux can have different signs. In the near extremal cases considered, the angle average of the expectation value of the quantum angular momentum current flux is of the opposite sign as the angular momentum of the background itself, suggesting that, in the cases considered, quantum effects tend to decrease the total angular momentum of the spheres away from the extremal value. We also numerically calculate the energy flux component, which provides the leading order divergence of the quantum stress energy tensor, dominant over the classical stress energy tensor, at the inner horizon. Taking our expectation value of the quantum stress tensor as the source in the semiclassical Einstein equation, our analysis suggests that the spheres approaching the inner horizon can undergo an infinite twisting due to quantum effects along latitudes separating regions of infinite expansion and contraction.

description: Josquin Desprez' Missa Hercules Dux Ferrariae ist ein vorzügliches Beispiel für eine gelungene grenzüberschreitende Verbreitung eines Kompositionsmodells. Im Hinblick auf den spanischen Raum will der Vortrag die beiden Philippus-Messen von Bartolomé Escobedo und Philippe Rogier in ihrem Kontext und ihrer Beziehung zu Josquins Messe in den Blick nehmen. Während der Flame Rogier am spanischen Hof Philipps II. als Sänger und Kapellmeister wirkte, steht insbesondere Escobedo für einen personellen und kompositorischen Kulturtransfer zwischen Italien und Spanien. Er emigrierte aus Spanien und diente in Rom am päpstlichen Hof, wo seine Philippus-Messe als Unikat in einem Manuskript der Biblioteca Apostolica Vaticana überliefert ist (Ms. 39). Aus diesem dichten Beziehungsgeflecht auf musikalischen und dynastischen Ebenen zwischen dem frankoflämischen Raum, Spanien und Italien lassen sich Aussagen zum europäischen Kulturtransfer im 16. Jahrhundert ableiten.

description: We obtain critical embeddings and the concentration-compactness principle for the anisotropic variable exponent Sobolev spaces. As an application of these results,we confirm the existence of and find infinitely many nontrivial solutions for a class of nonlinear critical anisotropic elliptic equations involving variable exponents and two real parameters. With the groundwork laid in this work, there is potential for future extensions, particularly in extending the concentration-compactness principle to anisotropic fractional order Sobolev spaces with variable exponents in bounded domains. This extension could find applications in solving the generalized fractional Brezis-Nirenberg problem.

description: We present a UV to millimeter spectral energy distribution (SED) analysis of 16 hyperluminous, dust-obscured quasars at z $\sim$ 3, selected by the \textit{Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer}. We aim to investigate the physical properties of these quasars, with a focus on their molecular gas content. We decompose the SEDs into three components: stellar, cold dust, and active galactic nucleus (AGN). By doing so, we are able to derive and analyze the relevant properties of each component. We determine the molecular gas mass from CO line emission based on Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA) observations. By including ALMA observations in the multiwavelength SED analysis, we derive the molecular gas fractions, gas depletion timescales, and star formation efficiencies (SFEs). Their sample median and 16th-84th quartile ranges are $f_{\rm gas}\,\sim\,0.33_{-0.17}^{+0.33}$, $t_{\rm depl}\,\sim$ 39$_{-28}^{+85}$ Myr, SFE $\sim\,$ 297$_{-195}^{+659}$ $\rm K\,\rm km\,\rm s^{-1}\,\rm pc^{-2}$. Compared to main-sequence galaxies, they have a lower molecular gas content and higher SFEs, similar to quasars in the literature. This suggests that the gas in these quasars is rapidly depleted, likely as the result of intense starburst activity and AGN feedback. The observed correlations between these properties and the AGN luminosities further support this scenario. Additionally, we infer the black hole to stellar mass ratio and black hole mass growth rate, which indicate a significant central black hole mass assembly over short timescales. Our results are consistent with the scenario that our sample represents a short transition phase toward unobscured quasars.

description: Multicomponent rare earth oxide (REO) nanocrystalline powders containing up to seven equiatomic rare earth elements were successfully synthesized in a single-phase CaF2-type (Fm-3 m) structure. The addition of more than six elements resulted in the formation of a secondary phase. Annealing at 1000°C for 1 h led to the formation of a single-phase (Ia-3) even in the 7-component system. In the absence of cerium (Ce4+), secondary phases were observed irrespective of the number of cations or the extent of thermal treatment indicating that cerium cations played a crucial role in stabilizing the multicomponent REOs into a phase pure structure. IMPACT STATEMENT Multicomponent equiatomic rare earth oxides pioneer a new group of materials that crystallize into a single-phase structure with the dominant role of a single element instead of entropy.

description: This study conducts a thorough examination of malware detection using machine learning techniques, focusing on the evaluation of various classification models using the Mal-API-2019 dataset. The aim is to advance cybersecurity capabilities by identifying and mitigating threats more effectively. Both ensemble and non-ensemble machine learning methods, such as Random Forest, XGBoost, K Nearest Neighbor (KNN), and Neural Networks, are explored. Special emphasis is placed on the importance of data pre-processing techniques, particularly TF-IDF representation and Principal Component Analysis, in improving model performance. Results indicate that ensemble methods, particularly Random Forest and XGBoost, exhibit superior accuracy, precision, and recall compared to others, highlighting their effectiveness in malware detection. The paper also discusses limitations and potential future directions, emphasizing the need for continuous adaptation to address the evolving nature of malware. This research contributes to ongoing discussions in cybersecurity and provides practical insights for developing more robust malware detection systems in the digital era.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: The Gaia celestial reference frame (Gaia-CRF) will benefit from a close assessment with independent methods, such as Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) measurements of radio stars at bright magnitudes. However, obtaining full astrometric parameters for each radio star through VLBI measurements demands a significant amount of observation time. This study proposes an efficient observing strategy that acquires double-epoch VLBI positions to measure the positions and proper motions of radio stars at a reduced cost. The solution for CRF link compatible with individual VLBI position measurements is introduced, and the optimized observing epoch scheduling is discussed. Applying this solution to observational data yields results sensitive to sample increase or decrease, yet they remain consistently in line with the literature at the 1-sigma level. This suggests the potential for improvement with a larger sample size. Simulations for adding observations demonstrate the double-epoch strategy reduces CRF link parameter uncertainties by over 30% compared to the five-parameter strategy.

I: Excavation of a Roman roadside settlement at Stockton Heath, Warrington 2007
Creators: name: Dodd, Leigh J
Publisher: name: Archaeology Data Service
Year: 2018

description: Journal of the Chester Archaeological Society, 81, 5-64
description: Evaluation followed by excavation ahead of construction at a site at Stockton Heath, Warrington, revealed Roman remains flanking the major arterial road that ran north to the important settlement at Wilderspool. Structures, ovens and cremations, dating primarily to the second century AD, were excavated and road construction examined. There was no evidence to suggest anything other than agricultural activity after the Roman period. However, twelve air-raid shelters were excavated within the site during the Second World War, causing widespread destruction to the Roman remains.

description: Gender differences in school are often discussed in reference to a particular type of masculinity, negative masculinity, which is often conceptualized as detrimental to success. Another type of masculinity, instrumentality, has rarely been studied in schools even though instrumental characteristics are often exalted outside the academic context. The current study focuses on potential benefits that students may reap from instrumentality. The extent to which an instrumental self-concept is directly and indirectly associated with achievement motivation and self-esteem was examined for adolescent boys and girls in a structural equation model (SEM). A sample of German ninth graders (N = 355) completed self-report measures pertaining to their gender role self-concept, hope for success, fear of failure, and global and academic contingent self-esteem. The SEM revealed that instrumentality was associated with lower fear of failure and higher hope for success for both male and female adolescents. High scores in instrumentality were associated with greater self-esteem and lower academic contingent self-esteem. The association between instrumentality and global self-esteem was stronger for adolescent girls, and the indirect association between instrumentality and fear of failure through global self-esteem was significant only for girls. Results indicate that instrumentality can be an asset for students and that female students especially reap the benefits of an instrumental self-concept. The results are discussed in reference to the dangers of emphasizing solely the association between negative masculinity and academic failure, and the importance of studying relations with gender role self-concept separately for male and female adolescents.

description: Magnetic skyrmions, topologically nontrivial whirling spin textures at nanometer scales, have emerged as potential information carriers for spintronic devices. The ability to efficiently create and erase magnetic skyrmions is vital yet challenging for such applications. Based on first-principles studies, we find that switching between intrinsic magnetic skyrmion and high-temperature ferromagnetic states can be achieved in two-dimensional van der Waals (vdW) multiferroic heterostructure CrSeI/In2Te3 by reversing the ferroelectric polarization of In2Te3. The core mechanism of this switching is traced to the controllable magnetic anisotropy of CrSeI influenced by the ferroelectric polarization of In2Te3. We propose a useful descriptor linking the presence of magnetic skyrmions to magnetic parameters, and validate this connection through studies of a variety of similar vdW multiferroic heterostructures. Our work demonstrates that manipulating magnetic skyrmions via tunable magnetic anisotropies in vdW multiferroic heterostructures represents a highly promising and energy-efficient strategy for future development of spintronics.

description: Previous studies proved that many students face difficulties in learning Mathematics which resulted in higher rate of failure. Similar studies also showed that by using the current L&T approaches, students' score on motivation was low. As such, this paper proposes an alternative approach in learning Mathematics, i.e. by utilising the shadow play (Wayang Kulit - WK) technique. This approach is the state of art and practice in terms of learning paradigm. We address the challenges that hamper the success of the Wayang Kulit technique for Deep-Learning (DeL) in Mathematics. Subsequently, we formulate strategies for modeling a Digital Wayang Kulit (DWK) application given a persona name of e-WayCOOL, in order to overcome challenges in L&T, specifically in DeL. The DWK model aims at helping primary school students learn Mathematics in a more engaging way by using the Rapid Application Development. Seven aspects of WK are combined to represent situation, behaviour, numbers, and mathematical operations which enable learning activities to take place. Control mechanism is also provided in the DWK model so that students can maneuver the characters in DWK.

description: Background Porcine endogenous retroviruses (PERVs) can infect human cells and pose a risk for xenotransplantation when pig cells, tissues or organs are transplanted to human recipients. Xenotransplantation holds great promise to overcome the shortage of human donor organs after solving the problems of rejection, functionality and virus safety. We recently described the transmission of a human-tropic recombinant PERV-A/C, designated PERV-F, from peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs) of a Göttingen Minipig (GöMP) to human 293 cells (Krüger et al., in Viruses 12(1):38, 2019). The goal of this study was to characterize PERV-F in more detail and to analyze the probability of virus isolation from other animals. Methods The recombination site in the envelope (env) gene, the long terminal repeats (LTR), the proteins and the morphology of the recombinant PERV-F were characterized by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), sequencing, Western blot analysis, immunofluorescence, and transmissible electron microscopy. Mitogen-stimulated PBMCs from 47 additional pigs, including 17 new GöMP, were co-cultured with highly susceptible human 293 T cells, and the PERV-A/C prevalence and PERV transmission was analyzed by PCR. Results PERV-F, isolated from a GöMP, is an infectious human-tropic PERV-A/C virus with a novel type of recombination in the env gene. The length of the LTR of PERV-F increased after passaging on human cells. In a few minipigs, but not in German landrace pigs, PERV-A/C were found. There was no transmission of human-tropic PERV-A/C from additional 47 pigs, including 17 GöMP, to human cells. Conclusion These data show that human-tropic recombinant PERV-A/C proviruses can only be found in a very small number of minipigs, but not in other pigs, and that their isolation as infectious virus able to replicate on human cells is an extremely rare event, even when using highly susceptible 293 cells.
