description: The type IIB matrix model, also known as the IKKT model, has been proposed as a promising candidate for a non-perturbative formulation of superstring theory. Based on this proposal, various attempts have been made to explain how our four-dimensional space-time can emerge dynamically from superstring theory. In this article, we review the progress in numerical studies on the type IIB matrix model. We particularly focus on the most recent results for the Euclidean and Lorentzian versions, which are obtained using the complex Langevin method to overcome the sign problem. We also review the earlier results obtained using conventional Monte Carlo methods and clarify the relationship among different calculations.

description: Protein complexes conserved across species indicate processes that are core to cellular machinery (e.g. cell-cycle or DNA damage-repair complexes conserved across human and yeast). While numerous computational methods have been devised to identify complexes from the protein interaction (PPI) networks of individual species, these are severely limited by noise and errors (false positives) in currently available datasets. Our analysis using human and yeast PPI networks revealed that these methods missed several important complexes including those conserved between the two species (e.g. the MLH1-MSH2-PMS2-PCNA mismatch-repair complex). Here, we note that much of the functionalities of yeast complexes have been conserved in human complexes not only through sequence conservation of proteins but also of critical functional domains. Therefore, integrating information of domain conservation might throw further light on conservation patterns between yeast and human complexes.

description: We present near-infrared (NIR) and optical observations of the Type Ic supernova (SN Ic) SN 2021krf obtained between days 13 and 259 at several ground-based telescopes. The NIR spectrum at day 68 exhibits a rising $K$-band continuum flux density longward of $\sim$ 2.0 $μ$m, and a late-time optical spectrum at day 259 shows strong [O I] 6300 and 6364 Å emission-line asymmetry, both indicating the presence of dust, likely formed in the SN ejecta. We estimate a carbon-grain dust mass of $\sim$ 2 $\times$ 10$^{-5}$ M$_{\odot}$ and a dust temperature of $\sim$ 900 - 1200 K associated with this rising continuum and suggest the dust has formed in SN ejecta. Utilizing the one-dimensional multigroup radiation hydrodynamics code STELLA, we present two degenerate progenitor solutions for SN 2021krf, characterized by C-O star masses of 3.93 and 5.74 M$_{\odot}$, but with the same best-fit $^{56}$Ni mass of 0.11 M$_{\odot}$ for early times (0-70 days). At late times (70-300 days), optical light curves of SN 2021krf decline substantially more slowly than that expected from $^{56}$Co radioactive decay. Lack of H and He lines in the late-time SN spectrum suggests the absence of significant interaction of the ejecta with the circumstellar medium. We reproduce the entire bolometric light curve with a combination of radioactive decay and an additional powering source in the form of a central engine of a millisecond pulsar with a magnetic field smaller than that of a typical magnetar.

description: The large-scale dynamic behavior of Mercury’s highly compressed magnetosphere is predominantly powered by magnetic reconnection, which transfers energy and momentum from the solar wind to the magnetosphere. The contribution of flux transfer events (FTEs) at the dayside magnetopause to the redistribution of magnetic flux in Mercury’s magnetosphere is assessed with magnetic field data acquired in orbit about Mercury by the Magnetometer on the MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, GEochemistry, and Ranging (MESSENGER) spacecraft. FTEs with core fields greater than the planetary field just inside the magnetopause are prevalent at Mercury. Fifty-eight such large-amplitude FTEs were identified during February and May 2012, when MESSENGER sampled the subsolar magnetosheath. The orientation of each FTE was determined by minimum variance analysis, and the magnetic flux content of each was estimated using a force-free flux rope model. The average flux content of the FTEs was 0.06 MWb, and their durations imply a transient increase in the cross-polar cap potential of ~25 kV. For a substorm timescale of 2–3 min, as indicated by magnetotail flux loading and unloading, the FTE repetition rate (10 s) and average flux content (assumed to be 0.03 MWb) imply that FTEs contribute at least ~30% of the flux transport required to drive the Mercury substorm cycle. At Earth, in contrast, FTEs are estimated to contribute less than 2% of the substorm flux transport. This result implies that whereas at Earth, at which steady-state dayside reconnection is prevalent, multiple X-line dayside reconnection and associated FTEs at Mercury are a dominant forcing for magnetospheric dynamics.

description: Background: Worldwide there is growing attention paid to the reproductive decisions faced by HIV-infected individuals. Studies in both developed and developing countries have suggested that many HIV-infected women continue to desire children despite knowledge of their HIV status. Despite the increasing attention to the health care needs of HIV-infected individuals in low resource settings, little attention has been given to reproductive choice and intentions. Health care providers play a crucial role in determining access to reproductive health services and their influence is likely to be heightened in delivering services to HIV-infected women. We examined the attitudes of health care policy makers and providers towards reproductive decision-making among HIV-infected individuals. Methods: In-depth interviews were conducted with 14 health care providers at two public sector health care facilities located in Cape Town, South Africa. In addition, 12 in-depth interviews with public sector policy makers and managers, and managers within HIV/AIDS and reproductive health NGOs were conducted. Data were analyzed using a grounded theory approach. Results: Providers and policy makers approached the issues related to being HIV-infected and child bearing differently. Biomedical considerations were paramount in providers' approaches to HIV infection and reproductive decision-making, whereas, policy makers approached the issues more broadly recognizing the structural constraints that inform the provision of reproductive health care services and the possibility of "choice" for HIV-infected individuals. Conclusion: The findings highlight the diversity of perspectives among policy makers and providers regarding the reproductive decisions taken by HIV-infected people. There is a clear need for more explicit policies recognizing the reproductive rights and choices of HIV-infected individuals.

description: The XYZ model is an integrable spin chain which has an infinite set of conserved charges, but it lacks a global $U(1)$-symmetry. We consider the current operators, which describe the flow of the conserved quantities in this model. We derive an exact result for the current mean values, valid for any eigenstate in a finite volume with periodic boundary conditions. This result can serve as a basis for studying the transport properties of this model within Generalized Hydrodynamics.

description: Background: Many bacterial chromosomes display nucleotide asymmetry, or skew, between the leading and lagging strands of replication. Mutational differences between these strands result in an overall pattern of skew that is centered about the origin of replication. Such a pattern could also arise from selection coupled with a bias for genes coded on the leading strand. The relative contributions of selection and mutation in producing compositional skew are largely unknown. Results: We describe a model to quantify the contribution of mutational differences between the leading and lagging strands in producing replication-induced skew. When the origin and terminus of replication are known, the model can be used to estimate the relative accumulation of G over C and of A over T on the leading strand due to replication effects in a chromosome with bidirectional replication arms. The model may also be implemented in a maximum likelihood framework to estimate the locations of origin and terminus. We find that our estimations for the origin and terminus agree very well with the location of genes that are thought to be associated with the replication origin. This indicates that our model provides an accurate, objective method of determining the replication arms and also provides support for the hypothesis that these genes represent an ancestral cluster of origin-associated genes. Conclusion: The model has several advantages over other methods of analyzing genome skew. First, it quantifies the role of mutation in generating skew so that its effect on composition, for example codon bias, can be assessed. Second, it provides an objective method for locating origin and terminus, one that is based on chromosome-wide accumulation of leading vs lagging strand nucleotide differences. Finally, the model has the potential to be utilized in a maximum likelihood framework in order to analyze the effect of chromosome rearrangements on nucleotide composition.
Friends in need: how chaperonins recognize and remodel proteins that require folding assistance

description: Chaperonins are biological nanomachines that help newly translated proteins to fold by rescuing them from kinetically trapped misfolded states. Protein folding assistance by the chaperonin machinery is obligatory in vivo for a subset of proteins in the bacterial proteome. Chaperonins are large oligomeric complexes, with unusual seven fold symmetry (group I) or eight/nine fold symmetry (group II), that form double-ring constructs, enclosing a central folding chamber. Dramatic large-scale conformational changes, that take place during ATP-driven cycles, allow chaperonins to bind misfolded proteins, encapsulate them into the expanded cavity and release them back into the cellular environment, regardless of whether they are folded or not. The theory associated with the iterative annealing mechanism, which incorporated the conformational free energy landscape description of protein folding, \textit{quantitatively} explains most, if not all, the available data. Misfolded conformations are associated with low energy minima in a rugged energy landscape. Random disruptions of these low energy conformations result in higher free energy, less folded, conformations that can stochastically partition into the native state. Group I chaperonins (GroEL homologues in eubacteria and endosymbiotic organelles), recognize a large number of misfolded proteins non-specifically and operate through highly coordinated cooperative motions. By contrast, the less well understood group II chaperonins (CCT in Eukarya and thermosome/TF55 in Archaea), assist a selected set of substrate proteins. Chaperonins are implicated in bacterial infection, autoimmune disease, as well as protein aggregation and degradation diseases. Understanding the chaperonin mechanism and their substrates is important not only for the fundamental aspect of cellular protein folding, but also for effective therapeutic strategies.

description: By analysing the financial data of firms across Japan, a nonlinear power law with an exponent of 1.3 was observed between the number of business partners (i.e. the degree of the inter-firm trading network) and sales. In a previous study using numerical simulations, we found that this scaling can be explained by both the money-transport model, where a firm (i.e. customer) distributes money to its out-edges (suppliers) in proportion to the in-degree of destinations, and by the correlations among the Japanese inter-firm trading network. However, in this previous study, we could not specifically identify what types of structure properties (or correlations) of the network determine the 1.3 exponent. In the present study, we more clearly elucidate the relationship between this nonlinear scaling and the network structure by applying mean-field approximation of the diffusion in a complex network to this money-transport model. Using theoretical analysis, we obtained the mean-field solution of the model and found that, in the case of the Japanese firms, the scaling exponent of 1.3 can be determined from the power law of the average degree of the nearest neighbours of the network with an exponent of -0.7.

description: Maintaining ageing workers in the workforce and attracting new workers is an
important issue for the floor laying business sector. The aim of this project is to identify solutions having a good probability of success in an ever-changing and greener reality, meaning: solutions that promote health and safety without compromising work efficiency and at an acceptable cost. Three work teams - combining expertise in ergonomics, design and engineering - were formed. In this paper, we summarize the points of views on sustainability expressed by the different actors involved, we present an example of a solution developed – a multi-function trolley -, and briefly exposes issues related to the others products under development.

Geometric cumulants associated with adiabatic cycles crossing degeneracy points: Application to finite size scaling of metal-insulator transitions in crystalline electronic systems

description: In this work we focus on two questions. One, we complement the machinary to calculate geometric phases along adiabatic cycles as follows. The geometric phase is a line integral along an adiabatic cycle, and if the cycle encircles a degeneracy point, the phase becomes non-trivial. If the cycle crosses the degeneracy point the phase diverges. We construct quantities which are well-defined when the path crosses the degeneracy point. We do this by constructing a generalized Bargmann invariant, and noting that it can be interpreted as a cumulant generating function, with the geometric phase being the first cumulant. We show that particular ratios of cumulants remain finite for cycles crossing a set of isolated degeneracy points. The cumulant ratios take the form of the Binder cumulants known from the theory of finite size scaling in statistical mechanics (we name them geometric Binder cumulants). Two, we show that the machinery developed can be applied to perform finite size scaling in the context of the modern theory of polarization. The geometric Binder cumulants are size independent at gap closure points or regions with closed gap (Luttinger liquid). We demonstrate this by model calculations for a one-dimensional topological model, several two-dimensional models, and a one-dimensional correlated model. In the case of two dimensions we analyze to different situations, one in which the Fermi surface is one-dimensional (a line), and two cases in which it is zero dimensional (Dirac points). For the geometric Binder cumulants the gap closure points can be found by one dimensional scaling even in two dimensions. As a technical point we stress that only certain finite difference approximations for the cumulants are applicable, since not all approximation schemes are capable of extracting the size scaling information in the case of a closed gap system.

description: Two-dimensional semiconductors are structurally ideal channel materials for the ultimate atomic electronics after silicon era. A long-standing puzzle is the low carrier mobility (μ) in them as compared with corresponding bulk structures, which constitutes the main hurdle for realizing high-performance devices. To address this issue, we perform combined experimental and theoretical study on atomically thin MoS2 field effect transistors with varying the number of MoS2 layers (NLs). Experimentally, an intimate relation is observed with a 10-fold degradation in μ for extremely thinned monolayer channels. To accurately describe the carrier scattering process and shed light on the origin of the thinning-induced mobility degradation, a generalized Coulomb scattering model is developed with strictly considering device configurative conditions, i.e., asymmetric dielectric environments and lopsided carrier distribution. We reveal that the carrier scattering from interfacial Coulomb impurities (e.g., chemical residues, gaseous adsorbates and surface dangling bonds) is greatly intensified in extremely thinned channels, resulting from shortened interaction distance between impurities and carriers. Such a pronounced factor may surpass lattice phonons and serve as dominant scatterers. This understanding offers new insight into the thickness induced scattering intensity, highlights the critical role of surface quality in electrical transport and would lead to rational performance improvement strategies for future atomic electronics.

description: Pregnancy-associated VTE (PA-VTE) is a leading cause of maternal morbidity and mortality in the developed world.1 However, in many cases, PA-VTE is preventable using pharmacological thromboprophylaxis. In 2014, a comprehensive VTE prevention protocol was introduced at the Rotunda Hospital to streamline the identification of women at risk of VTE and promote use of risk-appropriate thromboprophylaxis in line with local guidelines. The VTE prevention protocol centred on two components; a postnatal VTE electronic risk assessment tool called ‘Thrombocalc’, and a comprehensive clinical guideline on the prevention of PA-VTE.The aim of this thesis was to explore the need for, and potential impact of, a comprehensive, systematic postpartum VTE prevention protocol. Three distinct studies were carried out to achieve this.
First, in a cross-sectional study of over 21,000 postpartum women from an Irish maternity hospital, a high prevalence of VTE risk factors was observed, which in some cases was higher than other European populations. VTE risk was noted to be highly individualised and dynamic, supporting the need for systematic VTE risk assessment and an individualised approach to VTE prevention.
Then, Thrombocalc’s novel risk score was validated using a cohort of over 300,000 pregnancies recorded in the Danish Medical Birth Register. At the risk threshold used in the Rotunda Hospital, the VTE risk score had a sensitivity of 67% and a specificity of 62%. Thrombocalc’s risk score demonstrated higher sensitivity when compared with previous and current risk assessment tools from the Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists in the UK.Finally, using a before and after study design, implementation of the VTE prevention protocol was shown to increased compliance with documented VTE risk assessment (2% to 98%, p < 0.001), increase prescription (67% to 91%, OR 5.05, p <0.001) and timely administration (42% to 66%, OR 2.03, p = 0.05) of risk-appropriate pharmacological thromboprophylaxis in a standalone maternity hospital in Ireland.
In conclusion, this body of research demonstrates that a comprehensive VTE prevention protocol enables systematic and individualised assessment of VTE risk and promotes the implementation risk-appropriate thromboprophylaxis in line with local guidelines. It is hypothesised that such improvements may ultimately contribute to effective prevention of postpartum VTE.

description: We present new observations of pyroclastic deposits on the surface of Mercury from data acquired during the orbital phase of the MErcury Surface, Space ENvironment, GEochemistry, and Ranging (MESSENGER) mission. The global analysis of pyroclastic deposits brings the total number of such identified features from 40 to 51. Some 90% of pyroclastic deposits are found within impact craters. The locations of most pyroclastic deposits appear to be unrelated to regional smooth plains deposits, except some deposits cluster around the margins of smooth plains, similar to the relation between many lunar pyroclastic deposits and lunar maria. A survey of the degradation state of the impact craters that host pyroclastic deposits suggests that pyroclastic activity occurred on Mercury over a prolonged interval. Measurements of surface reflectance by MESSENGER indicate that the pyroclastic deposits are spectrally distinct from their surrounding terrain, with higher reflectance values, redder (i.e., steeper) spectral slopes, and a downturn at wavelengths shorter than ~400 nm (i.e., in the near-ultraviolet region of the spectrum). Three possible causes for these distinctive characteristics include differences in transition metal content, physical properties (e.g., grain size), or degree of space weathering from average surface material on Mercury. The strength of the near-ultraviolet downturn varies among spectra of pyroclastic deposits and is correlated with reflectance at visible wavelengths. We suggest that this interdeposit variability in reflectance spectra is the result of either variable amounts of mixing of the pyroclastic deposits with underlying material or inherent differences in chemical and physical properties among pyroclastic deposits.
Use of CCTV in remote operations and remote support of oil and gas fields to improve safety and resilience

description: CCTV is increasingly used in the oil and gas industry to assist in remote operations and remote support. This is done to achieve safety and resilience. The CCTV system is a complex component, consisting of technology (screens, cameras, workplaces), humans (operators observing and analyzing information) and organizational factors (procedures, responsibilities, staffing). We have examined the use of CCTVs in three actual oil and gas installations on the Norwegian continental shelf, in order to identify the use and need for Human Factors (HF) specific guidelines. The scope of HF specific guidelines related to CCTV is ergonomic factors (i.e. size of screens), cognitive factors (i.e. situational awareness) and organizational factors (i.e. awareness of need, process to implement CCTV, and procedures of use). Available CCTV standards and guidelines were not known or used in the design process in the installations. In general, available CCTV guidelines are focused on security, and are not focused on safety and resilience of remote operations. The industry should use and explore the existing CCTV standards from the initial phase in order to build on existing research and good practices from the HF area. We argue that there is a need to develop improved CCTV guidelines and standards supporting HF, safety and resilience, especially in the oil and gas industry.

description: In this Article, the EU Treaties which establish a new and autonomous legal order are analysed through the lens of Pierre Pescatore’s qualification of their operating sphere as “sphere of intervention”. Combining Jürgen Habermas' revision of Kant's concept of cosmopolitan law and Joseph Weiler's thesis on the messianic impact of the European integration process, a concept of international treaty is presented that is suitable for a proper analysis of the transformative character of the EU Treaties and the Common Market as such a "sphere of intervention”. Highlighting implications of the theory of international treaty, legal philosophy and messianism, the concept of the European autonomous legal order, endowed with direct effect and supremacy, shall be proven to be the historical answer to the aporias of classical international law and to the totalitarian abuse of the law in the fascist regimes in Europe in the first half of the 20th century – not only on a symbolical level but also on the level of the concrete legal structure of the European integration process. The general aim of this Article is therefore to contribute to the debate about the nature of the EU Treaties as constituting an autonomous legal order from an international law perspective by identifying a type of international treaty suitable to explain the special character of a legal order that is identical neither with international nor with domestic law, but rather constituting a realm in-between the former and showing an independent legal standing in itself.
A relational perspective on knowledge integration and organizational decision making
Creators: name: Van Berkel, Freek

Year: 2014

description: In the present research we study inter-unit coordination in situations in which
employees from different departments do not have the possibility to frequently interact face-to-face and create mutual knowledge. While at the same time they have to respond timely and accurately in order to transfer relevant knowledge to focal points in the organization where coordination and decision making takes place. We performed an in depth case study of a large public organization in the Netherlands (i.e., survey research, interviews, and observations) and found that the team’s awareness of each other’s expertise and their ability to integrate and externalize knowledge determines their success (achievement of goals) in coordination at the organizational level.

description: One of the determining factors of functional mismatches in large industrial projects is the growing gap between operational and project teams. The consequence of this
is predominantly organizational, which maintains a focus on project management rather than on the use of these units. This article discusses and analyzes the design process itself from the viewpoint of the participation of the authors in the development of a new Sulfur Recovery Unit (SRU). Ergonomics in this study identified the need to promote social intervention, considering the design experts and operators as actors of a unique social construction.
Response to `Comment on "Quantum correlations are weaved by the spinors of the Euclidean primitives"'

description: In this paper I respond to a critique of one of my papers previously published in the Royal Society Open Science entitled "Quantum correlations are weaved by the spinors of the Euclidean primitives." Without engaging with the geometrical framework presented in my paper, the critique incorrectly claims that there are mathematical errors in it. I demonstrate that the critique is based on a series of misunderstandings, and refute each of its claims of error. I also bring out a number of logical, mathematical, and conceptual errors from the critique and the critiques it relies on.

description: We construct a finite element method (FEM) for the infinity Laplacian. Solutions of this problem may be singular, which has prompted us to conduct an a posteriori analysis of the method deriving residual based estimators to drive an adaptive algorithm. It is numerically shown that the optimal convergence rates are regained upon using the adaptive procedure.

description: Based on the recent advancements in the numerical simulations of galaxy formation, we anticipate the achievement of realistic models of galaxies in the near future. Morphology is the most basic and fundamental property of galaxies, yet observations and simulations still use different methods to determine galaxy morphology, making it difficult to compare them. We hereby perform a test on the recent NewHorizon simulation which has spatial and mass resolutions that are remarkably high for a large-volume simulation, to resolve the situation. We generate mock images for the simulated galaxies using SKIRT that calculates complex radiative transfer processes in each galaxy. We measure morphological indicators using photometric and spectroscopic methods following observer's techniques. We also measure the kinematic disk-to-total ratios using the Gaussian mixture model and assume that they represent the true structural composition of galaxies. We found that spectroscopic indicators such as $V/σ$ and $λ_{R}$ closely trace the kinematic disk-to-total ratios. In contrast, photometric disk-to-total ratios based on the radial profile fitting method often fail to recover the true kinematic structure of galaxies, especially for small galaxies. We provide translating equations between various morphological indicators.

description: We investigate the structure of the outer automorphism group of the Cuntz algebra and the closely related problem of conjugacy of MASAa in O_n. In particular, we exhibit an uncountable family of MASAs, conjugate to the standard MASA D_n via Bogolubov automorphisms, that are not inner conjugate to D_n.

Fluid limits to analyze long-term flow rates of a stochastic network with ingress discarding

Subjects: subject: Probability (math.PR)

description: We study a simple rate control scheme for a multiclass queuing network for which customers are partitioned into distinct flows that are queued separately at each station. The control scheme discards customers that arrive to the network ingress whenever any one of the flow's queues throughout the network holds more than a specified threshold number of customers. We prove that if the state of a corresponding fluid model tends to a set where the flow rates are equal to target rates, then there exist sufficiently high thresholds that make the long-term average flow rates of the stochastic network arbitrarily close to these target rates. The same techniques could be used to study other control schemes. To illustrate the application of our results, we analyze a network resembling a 2-input, 2-output communications network switch.

description: La-substituted CaFeAsH,(Ca1-xLax)FeAsH, were synthesized by the solid state reaction at 1173 K under high pressure of 2.5 GPa. The r-T anomaly corresponding to tetragonal to orthorhombic structural transition was suppressed by La-substitution and then the superconductivity was observed at an electron doping content of Ne > 0.05. The maximum onset Tc of 47.4 K was reached for Ne = 0.18, which is significant increase compared to 23 K achieved by direct electron doping to the FeAs-layer via Co-substitution to the Fe-site. This value of Tc value fits well to the phenomenological relation between Tc and the bond angle of As-Fe-As in indirectly electron doped LnFeAsO (Ln = Lanthanide). These results indicate that the electron was doped via the indirect mode through the aliovalent ion substitution to CaH-layer (Ca2+ La3+ + e-).

description: Introduction: Hyperinsulinism is the most common cause of recurrent and persistent hypoglycemia in infancy and childhood. Causes can include nesidioblastosis, pancreatic islet cell tumors such as insulinoma, and associations with multiple endocrine neoplasia syndromes. Although new, improved imaging techniques have allowed for more precise preoperative localization of insulinomas, the differentiation of nesidioblastosis and insulinoma, particularly in children, can be challenging. To improve intraoperative localization and confirmation of successful resection of insulinoma, a novel hormonal assay, the rapid intraoperative insulin assay, is reported for the first time in a pediatric patient. This intraoperative radioimmunoassay for insulin yields results within several minutes and confirms complete resection of insulinoma. Case description: We present a case of pancreatic insulinoma in a child with symptoms of severe hypoglycemia, causing seizures. The insulinoma was enucleated laparoscopically, and rapid intra-operative insulin assay used to determine the success of the procedure. Discussion and evaluation: This rapid intra-operative test provides a valuable adjunct for determining complete excision in complicated cases of recurrent or questionable insulinoma. Although not a common problem, for pediatric patients in whom the diagnosis is not clear, this test may provide a novel approach to confirming disease. Conclusion: We propose the use of this assay in facilitating intra-operative resection and confirmation of complete excision in pediatric patients. This population may especially benefit from this novel assay to confirm complete resection and to differentiate multiple etiologies of hyperinsulinism.
