description: The detection of galaxy clusters in present and future surveys enables measuring mass-to-light ratios, clustering properties, galaxy cluster abundances and therefore, constraining cosmological parameters. We present a new technique for detecting galaxy clusters, which is based on the Matched Filter Algorithm from a Bayesian point of view. The method is able to determine the position, redshift and richness of the cluster through the maximization of a filter depending on galaxy luminosity, density and photometric redshift combined with a galaxy cluster prior that accounts for color-magnitude relations and BCG-redshift relation. We tested the algorithm through realistic mock galaxy catalogs, revealing that the detections are 100% complete and 80% pure for clusters up to z $$20 (Abell Richness $\sim$0, M$\sim4\times10^{14} M_{\odot}$). The completeness and purity remains approximately the same if we do not include the prior information, implying that this method is able to detect galaxy cluster with and without a well defined red sequence. We applied the algorithm to the CFHTLS Archive Research Survey (CARS) data, recovering similar detections as previously published using the same or deeper data plus additional clusters which appear to be real.

description: The accuracy in the photometry of a point source depends on the point-spread function (PSF), detector pixelization, and observing strategy. The PSF and pixel response describe the spatial blurring of the source, the pixel scale describes the spatial sampling of a single exposure, and the observing strategy determines the set of dithered exposures with pointing offsets from which the source flux is inferred. In a wide-field imaging survey, sources of interest are randomly distributed within the field of view and hence are centered randomly within a pixel. A given hardware configuration and observing strategy therefore have a distribution of photometric uncertainty for sources of fixed flux that fall in the field. In this article we explore the ensemble behavior of photometric and position accuracies for different PSFs, pixel scales, and dithering patterns. We find that the average uncertainty in the flux determination depends slightly on dither strategy, whereas the position determination can be strongly dependent on the dithering. For cases with pixels much larger than the PSF, the uncertainty distributions can be non-Gaussian, with rms values that are particularly sensitive to the dither strategy. We also find that for these configurations with large pixels, pointings dithered by a fractional pixel amount do not always give minimal average uncertainties; this is in contrast to image reconstruction for which fractional dithers are optimal. When fractional pixel dithering is favored, a pointing accuracy of better than $\sim 0.15$ pixel width is required to maintain half the advantage over random dithers.

description: Interactions of cosmic rays with the interstellar gas and radiation fields of the Milky Way provide the majority of the gamma rays observed by the Fermi Gamma Ray Space Telescope. In addition to the gas which is densely concentrated along the Galactic Disk, hydrodynamical simulations and observational evidence favor the presence of a halo of hot (T~10^6 K) ionized hydrogen (H_II), extending with non-negligible densities out to the virial radius of the Milky Way. We show that cosmic ray collisions with this circum-galactic gas should be expected to provide a significant flux of gamma rays, on the order of 10% of the observed isotopic gamma ray background at energies above 1 GeV. In addition, gamma rays originating from the extended H_II halos of other galaxies along a given line-of-sight should contribute to this background at a similar level.

description: We simulate the evolution of one-dimensional gravitating collisionless systems from non- equilibrium initial conditions, similar to the conditions that lead to the formation of dark- matter halos in three dimensions. As in the case of 3D halo formation we find that initially cold, nearly homogeneous particle distributions collapse to approach a final equilibrium state with a universal density profile. At small radii, this attractor exhibits a power-law behavior in density, ρ(x) \propto |x|^(-γ_crit), γ_crit \simeq 0.47, slightly but significantly shallower than the value γ = 1/2 suggested previously. This state develops from the initial conditions through a process of phase mixing and violent relaxation. This process preserves the energy ranks of particles. By warming the initial conditions, we illustrate a cross-over from this power-law final state to a final state containing a homogeneous core. We further show that inhomogeneous but cold power-law initial conditions, with initial exponent γ_i > γ_crit, do not evolve toward the attractor but reach a final state that retains their original power-law behavior in the interior of the profile, indicating a bifurcation in the final state as a function of the initial exponent. Our results rely on a high-fidelity event-driven simulation technique.

description: Single crystals of Ba$_{1-x}$Na$_x$Fe$_2$As$_2$ with $x$ = 0, 0.25, 0.35, 0.4 were grown using a self-flux high temperature solution growth technique. The superconducting and normal state properties were studied by temperature dependent magnetic susceptibility, electrical resistivity and specific heat revealing that the magnetic and structural transition is rapidly suppressed upon Na-substitution at the Ba-site in BaFe$_2$As$_2$, giving rise to superconductivity. A superconducting transition as high as 34 K is reached for a Na-content of $x$=0.4. The positive Hall coefficient confirms that the substitution of Ba by Na results in hole-doping similarly to the substitution of Ba by K. Angle resolved photoemission spectroscopy was performed on all Ba$_{1-x}$Na$_x$Fe$_2$As$_2$ crystals. The Fermi surface of hole-doped Ba$_{1-x}$Na$_x$Fe$_2$As$_2$ is to high extent the same as the Fermi surface found for the K-doped sister compounds, suggesting a similar impact of the substitution of Ba by either K or Na on the electronic band dispersion at the Fermi level

description: We show that in colloidal models of artificial kagome and modified square ice systems, a variety of ordering and disordering regimes occur as a function of biasing field, temperature, and colloid-colloid interaction strength, including ordered monopole crystals, biased ice rule states, thermally induced ice rule ground states, biased triple states, and disordered states. We describe the lattice geometries and biasing field protocols that create the different states and explain the formation of the states in terms of sublattice switching thresholds. For a system prepared in a monopole lattice state, we show that a sequence of different orderings occurs for increasing temperature. Our results also explain several features observed in nanomagnetic artificial ice systems under an applied field.

Geometric measure of quantum discord and total quantum correlations in a N-partite quantum state

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: Quantum discord, as introduced by Olliver and Zurek [Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{88}, 017901 (2001)], is a measure of the discrepancy between quantum versions of two classically equivalent expressions for mutual information and is found to be useful in quantification and application of quantum correlations in mixed states. It is viewed as a key resource present in certain quantum communication tasks and quantum computational models without containing much entanglement. An early step toward the quantification of quantum discord in a quantum state was by Dakic, Vedral, and Brukner [Phys. Rev. Lett. 105,190502 (2010)] who introduced a geometric measure of quantum discord and derived an explicit formula for any two-qubit state. Recently, Luo and Fu [Phys. Rev. A \textbf{82}, 034302 (2010)] introduced a generic form of the geometric measure of quantum discord for a bipartite quantum state. We extend these results and find generic forms of the geometric measure of quantum discord and total quantum correlations in a general N-partite quantum state. Further, we obtain computable exact formulas for the geometric measure of quantum discord and total quantum correlations in a N-qubit quantum state. The exact formulas for the $N$-qubit quantum state are experimentally implementable.

description: The flare of radiation from the tidal disruption and accretion of a star can be used as a marker for supermassive black holes that otherwise lie dormant and undetected in the centres of distant galaxies. Previous candidate flares have had declining light curves in good agreement with expectations, but with poor constraints on the time of disruption and the type of star disrupted, because the rising emission was not observed. Recently, two `relativistic' candidate tidal disruption events were discovered, each of whose extreme X-ray luminosity and synchrotron radio emission were interpreted as the onset of emission from a relativistic jet. Here we report the discovery of a luminous ultraviolet-optical flare from the nuclear region of an inactive galaxy at a redshift of 0.1696. The observed continuum is cooler than expected for a simple accreting debris disk, but the well-sampled rise and decline of its light curve follows the predicted mass accretion rate, and can be modelled to determine the time of disruption to an accuracy of two days. The black hole has a mass of about 2 million solar masses, modulo a factor dependent on the mass and radius of the star disrupted. On the basis of the spectroscopic signature of ionized helium from the unbound debris, we determine that the disrupted star was a helium-rich stellar core.

description: The COVID-19 pandemic has had a profound impact on global health, contributing to a surge in the incidence of non-communicable diseases, particularly diabetes mellitus (DM). SARS-CoV-2, the virus responsible for COVID-19, has been implicated in damaging pancreatic beta cells, which may lead to impaired insulin production and the onset of type 2 diabetes, especially in individuals recovering from severe COVID-19. A growing number of post-COVID-19 cases have shown newly diagnosed diabetes, raising concerns about the virus's role in the development of metabolic disorders.

description: Throat carriage of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) has previously been associated with lower decolonisation treatment success rates. To characterise decolonisation treatment and outcome in Danish MRSA throat carriers. This retrospective population-based cohort study included MRSA throat carriers between July, 2018 and June, 2019, in the Capital Region of Denmark. Logistic regression analysis was performed to assess variables associated with becoming MRSA free. Of 178 patients included, 129 (72%) were MRSA free by the end of the study. Overall, 78 (44%) of patients became MRSA free following a treatment attempt. Twenty-six (15%) patients became MRSA free without treatment and 25 (14%) became MRSA free unrelated to a treatment attempt. The success rate of the first decolonisation treatment, mainly nasal mupirocin and chlorhexidine body wash, was 23%. Systemic clindamycin was given in 52 cases and had a success rate of 52%. Logistic regression showed that residing in a household with three to four additional MRSA carriers was negatively associated with becoming MRSA free, although not significant after adjustment. Having MRSA in a clinical sample prior to decolonisation was associated with a lower chance of becoming MRSA free after adjustment. Topical decolonisation treatment was associated with a lower probability of becoming MRSA free. In this Danish cohort of MRSA throat carriers, the overall success rate of decolonisation treatment was 44% and for systemic clindamycin 52%. A higher number of household MRSA carriers and a previous clinical MRSA infection were associated with a lower chance of becoming MRSA free.
Dissipation Efficiency of Reconfinement Shocks in Relativistic Jets

description: We calculate the dissipation efficiency of relativistic reconfinement shocks. Building on previous work (Nalewajko & Sikora 2009), we consider different distributions of the external pressure. The average dissipation efficiency epsilon_diss is a function of the product of two parameters - the jet Lorentz factor Gamma_j and the reconfinement angle Theta_r, which is related to the opening angle Theta_j and the external pressure index eta. The spatial distribution of the dissipation rate strongly depends on eta. We discuss the significance of these results for the properties of relativistic jets in gamma-ray bursts and active galactic nuclei and propose that reconfinement shocks may explain a very high dissipation efficiency of the former and a moderate dissipation efficiency of the latter. Finally, we estimate the dissipation efficiency of the reconfinement shock associated with the quasi-stationary knot HST-1 in the jet of radio galaxy M87 and show that it is roughly consistent with the observational constraints.

In this paper, we study the large scale physical conditions in the star forming clumps/cores associated with 6.7 GHz methanol masers using observations of the (1,1), (2,2) and (3,3) inversion transitions of ammonia with the Effelsberg telescope. The gas kinetic temperature is found to be higher than in infrared dark clouds, highlighting the relatively evolved nature of the maser sources. Other than a weak correlation between maser luminosity and the ammonia line width, we do not find any differences between low and high luminosity methanol masers.

description: We prove that for a one-dimensional infinite lattice, with long-range coupling among sites, the diffusion of an initial delta-like pulse in the bulk, is ballistic at all times. We obtain a closed-form expression for the mean square displacement (MSD) as a function of time, and show some cases including finite range coupling, exponentially decreasing coupling and power-law decreasing coupling. For the case of an initial excitation at the edge of the lattice, we find an approximate expression for the MSD that predicts ballistic behavior at long times, in agreement with numerical results.

description: Bacteroides fragilis group species are the most frequently encountered bacteria involved in anaerobic bacteraemia and associated with high mortality rates. In 2012, we performed the first national study of antimicrobial susceptibility in the B. fragilis group from blood cultures in Denmark. The purpose of the present study was to compare the antimicrobial susceptibility rates of piperacillin-tazobactam, meropenem, clindamycin and metronidazole in the B. fragilis group from blood cultures in Denmark in 2022 with susceptibility rates from 2012. In addition, we wanted to investigate whether changes to susceptibility was related to the overall use of the specified antimicrobial agents from 2012 to 2022. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was performed in accordance with EUCAST guidelines using the agar dilution method and the disc diffusion method. The study showed a seemingly considerable increase in resistance in the B. fragilis group (n = 234) to piperacillin-tazobactam from a reported 8.5% in 2012 to 42.7% in 2022. Resistance towards meropenem also increased from a reported 3.4% to 10.7%. Most of the increase in resistance for piperacillin-tazobactam and meropenem is caused by a recent EUCAST breakpoint change. Metronidazole still has the lowest resistance rate for the B. fragilis group (one isolate, 0.4%) in this study. The sales of piperacillin-tazobactam in the same period revealed a corresponding increase (+130%), whereas meropenem sales were stable. The results underscore the need for timely routine antimicrobial susceptibility testing of B. fragilis group species and questions piperacillin-tazobactam monotherapy as empiric treatment for septic patients with a suspected abdominal source.

description: Astrophysical fluids are generically turbulent and this must be taken into account for most transport processes. We discuss how the preexisting turbulence modifies magnetic reconnection and how magnetic reconnection affects the MHD turbulent cascade. We show the intrinsic interdependence and interrelation of magnetic turbulence and magnetic reconnection, in particular, that strong magnetic turbulence in 3D requires reconnection and 3D magnetic turbulence entails fast reconnection. We follow the approach in Eyink, Lazarian & Vishniac 2011 to show that the expressions of fast magnetic reconnection in Lazarian & Vishniac 1999 can be recovered if Richardson diffusion of turbulent flows is used instead of ordinary Ohmic diffusion. This does not revive, however, the concept of magnetic turbulent diffusion which assumes that magnetic fields can be mixed up in a passive way down to a very small dissipation scales. On the contrary, we are dealing the reconnection of dynamically important magnetic field bundles which strongly resist bending and have well defined mean direction weakly perturbed by turbulence. We argue that in the presence of turbulence the very concept of flux-freezing requires modification. The diffusion that arises from magnetic turbulence can be called reconnection diffusion as it based on reconnection of magnetic field lines. The reconnection diffusion has important implications for the continuous transport processes in magnetized plasmas and for star formation. In addition, fast magnetic reconnection in turbulent media induces the First order Fermi acceleration of energetic particles, can explain solar flares and gamma ray bursts. However, the most dramatic consequence of these developments is the fact that the standard flux freezing concept must be radically modified in the presence of turbulence.

description: Abstract (EN): Numerical simulations are an important tool in water management because the surface flow involves very complex spatial and temporal properties and relationships. Therefore, such numerical programs are used for example for the decision making in flood protection measures. This thesis deals with the numerical model hms++ which was presented in Steffen et al. (2020). In this framework, an explicit robust solver for the depth-averaged shallow water equation is implemented. The open-source framework uses the finite volume method for a high-resolution approximated Riemann solver of the Godunov type. The logic of the solver of the shallow water equation in hms++ was taken from the already existing simulation program hms (Busse et al., 2007). The goal of hms++ is more time and resource efficient calculations. In this thesis, four simulation cases are treated. Specifically, cases that have an analytical solution were chosen to compare with the computed results of hms++ and hms. The solutions of the two simulation programs are very similar and well approximate to the analytical solution. By using four different surface flow simulations, dealing with a channel flow with hydraulic jump, a discontinuity of water depth, a rainfall-runoff process and a rotating flow in a bowl, the validation of the hms++ framework in this scope can be successfully demonstrated. Abstract (DE): Numerische Simulationen sind in der Wasserwirtschaft ein wichtiges Hilfsmittel, da Oberflächenströmungen sehr komplexe räumliche und zeitliche Eigenschaften und Zusammenhänge beinhalten. Somit dienen solche numerischen Programme beispielsweise der Entscheidungsfindung bei Hochwasserschutzmaßnahmen. Diese Arbeit befasst sich mit dem numerischen Modell hms++, welches in Steffen et al. (2020) vorgestellt wurde. In diesem ist ein expliziter, robuster Löser für die tiefengemittelte Flachwassergleichung implementiert. Das Open-Source Framework nutzt die Finite-Volumen-Methode für den hochauflösenden approximierten Riemann-Löser vom Typ Godunov. Die Logik des Lösers der Flachwassergleichung in hms++ wurde von dem bereits existierenden Simulationsprogramm hms (Busse et al., 2007) übertragen. Das Ziel von hms++ sind zeit- und ressourceneffizientere Berechnungen. In dieser Arbeit werden vier Simulationsfälle behandelt. Es wurden speziell Fälle ausgewählt, die eine analytische Lösung besitzen, um diese mit den berechneten Ergebnissen von hms++ und hms zu vergleichen. Die Lösungen der beiden Simulationsprogramme sind sehr ähnlich und nähern sich gut dem Verlauf der analytischen Lösung an. Durch vier verschiedene Oberflächenströmungssimulationen, die sich mit einer Gerinneströmung mit Wechselsprung, einer Diskontinuität der Wassertiefe, einem Niederschlag-Abfluss-Prozess und einer rotierenden Strömung in einem Becken befassen, kann die Validierung des Frameworks hms++ für diesen Anwendungsbereich erfolgreich gezeigt werden.

description: The Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) is bringing evolution with remote monitoring, intelligent analytics, and control of industrial processes. However, as the industrial world is currently in its initial stage of adopting full-stack development solutions with IIoT, there is a need to address the arising challenges. In this regard, researchers have proposed IIoT architectures based on different architectural layers and emerging technologies for the end-to-end integration of IIoT systems. In this paper, we review and compare three widely accepted IIoT reference architectures and present a state-of-the-art review of conceptual and experimental IIoT architectures from the literature. We identified scalability, interoperability, security, privacy, reliability, and low latency as the main IIoT architectural requirements and detailed how the current architectures address these challenges by using emerging technologies such as edge/fog computing, blockchain, SDN, 5G, Machine Learning, and Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN). Finally, we discuss the relation between the current challenges and emergent technologies and present some opportunities and directions for future research work.

description: In the standard picture of disc galaxy formation, baryons and dark matter receive the same tidal torques, and therefore approximately the same initial specific angular momentum. However, observations indicate that disc galaxies typically have only about half as much specific angular momentum as their dark matter haloes. We argue this does not necessarily imply that baryons lose this much specific angular momentum as they form galaxies. It may instead indicate that galaxies are most directly related to the inner regions of their host haloes, as may be expected in a scenario where baryons in the inner parts of haloes collapse first. A limiting case is examined under the idealised assumption of perfect angular momentum conservation. Namely, we determine the density contrast Delta, with respect to the critical density of the Universe, by which dark matter haloes need to be defined in order to have the same average specific angular momentum as the galaxies they host. Under the assumption that galaxies are related to haloes via their characteristic rotation velocities, the necessary Delta is ~600. This Delta corresponds to an average halo radius and mass which are ~60% and ~75%, respectively, of the virial values (i.e., for Delta = 200). We refer to this radius as the radius of baryonic collapse R_BC, since if specific angular momentum is conserved perfectly, baryons would come from within it. It is not likely a simple step function due to the complex gastrophysics involved, therefore we regard it as an effective radius. In summary, the difference between the predicted initial and the observed final specific angular momentum of galaxies, which is conventionally attributed solely to angular momentum loss, can more naturally be explained by a preference for collapse of baryons within R_BC, with possibly some later angular momentum transfer.

description: Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) significantly impacts not only children but also adults. However, knowledge of the severity and outcomes among adult RSV inpatients is still limited. To clarify the short- and long-term health threats associated with adult RSV infections. This retrospective observational study included 56,980 adult inpatients aged 18 years and older due to RSV or influenza infection between April 2010 and March 2022. After inverse probability weighting adjustment, we used Poisson’s regression to estimate the risk of outcomes. The RSV group had a higher risk of requiring mechanical ventilation during hospitalization compared to the influenza group (9.7% vs. 7.0%; risk ratio (RR), 1.35; 95% confidence interval (CI), 1.08–1.67). In-hospital mortality was comparable between RSV and influenza groups (7.5% vs. 6.6%; RR, 1.05; 95% CI, 0.82–1.34). RSV group was associated with increased risk of readmission within 1 year after surviving discharge (34.0% vs. 28.9%; RR, 1.19; 95% CI, 1.07–1.32) and all-cause mortality within 1 year of admission (12.9% vs. 10.3%; RR, 1.17; 95% CI, 1.02–1.36). In the age-stratified analysis, the RSV group aged 60 years and older had a higher risk than the influenza group for in-hospital death, readmission and all-cause mortality within one year. RSV infections demonstrated comparable or greater health threats than influenza infections not only during hospitalization but also in long-term outcomes. The findings underscore the threat of RSV in adults, the impact on healthcare systems and the need for continued development of public health counter measures against RSV.
Robust signatures in the current-voltage characteristics of DNA molecules oriented between two graphene nanoribbon electrodes

description: In this work we numerically calculate the electric current through three kinds of DNA sequences (telomeric, λ-DNA, and p53-DNA) described by different heuristic models. A bias voltage is applied between two zig-zag edged graphene contacts attached to the DNA segments, while a gate terminal modulates the conductance of the molecule. The calculation of current is performed by integrating the transmission function (calculated using the lattice Green's function) over the range of energies allowed by the chemical potentials. We show that a telomeric DNA sequence, when treated as a quantum wire in the fully coherent low-temperature regime, works as an excellent semiconductor. Clear steps are apparent in the current-voltage curves of telomeric sequences and are present independent of lengths and sequence initialisation at the contacts. The current-voltage curves suggest the existence of stepped structures independent of length and sequencing initialisation at the contacts. We also find that the molecule-electrode coupling can drastically influence the magnitude of the current. The difference between telomeric DNA and other DNA, such as λ-DNA and DNA for the tumour suppressor p53, is particularly visible in the length dependence of the current.
Unified microscopic approach to the interplay of pinned-Wigner-solid and liquid behavior of lowest-Landau-level states in the neighborhood of nu=1/3

description: Motivated by recent experiments, and using the rotating-and-vibrating electron-molecule (RVEM) theory [Yannouleas and Landman, Phys. Rev. B 66, 115315 (2002); Phys. Rev. A 81, 023609 (2010)], in conjunction with exact diagonalization, we develop a unified microscopic approach for the interplay between liquid fractional-quantum-Hall-effect (FQHE) states and Wigner-solid states in the lowest Landau level (LLL) in the neighborhood of nu=1/3. Liquid characteristics of the FQHE states are associated with the symmetry-conserving rotations and vibrations of the electron molecule. Although the electron densities of the symmetry-conserving LLL states do not exhibit crystalline patterns, the intrinsic crystalline correlations are reflected in the conditional probability distributions and the emergence of cusp yrast states in the LLL spectra. It is shown that away from the exact fractional fillings, weak pinning perturbations (due to weak disorder) may overcome the energy gaps between adjacent global states and generate pinned broken symmetry ground states as a superposition of symmetry-conserving LLL states with different total angular momenta. The electron densities of such mixed states (without good angular momentum quantum numbers) exhibit oscillating patterns that correspond to molecular crystallites. These pinned Wigner crystallites represent finite-size precursors of the bulk Wigner-solid state. It is further shown that the emergence of these molecular crystallites is a consequence of the presence of RVEM components in the symmetry-conserving LLL states. In addition, it is shown that the RVEM approach accounts for the Wigner-solid state in the neighborhood of nu=1, which was also found in the experiments. We utilize results for sizes in a wide range from N=6 to N=29 electrons, and we address the extrapolation to the thermodynamic limit.
