description: In this thesis an investigation of the electronic and magnetic properties of Mn:Ge(111) and Mn:GaSe (0001) interfaces is presented. These materials are relevant for potential applications in the field of spintronics. After an introduction to the physics of these systems (Chapter 1), in Chapter 2, the experimental and computational details on X-ray spectroscopy of interest are presented. The physical principles and the experimental setups underlying the X-ray photoemission (XPS), X-ray absorption (XAS) and the resonant photoemission (ResPES) spectroscopies are described; a brief introduction to parameterized, configuration integration (CI), models is provided, as this approach has been adopted to calculate the Mn spectral weight in core-level and valence band photoemission. In Chapter 3, the electronic and magnetic properties of the Mn-doped Ge(111) surface/interface are described. The preparation of Mn:Ge surface- /interface, which is an MnxGe1?x diluted magnetic semiconductor (DMS) system, as evidenced by Mn 2p line shape from the XPS, is described. A parameterized CI model is used to calculate the experimental spectrum. The information on the electronic interaction between the localized Mn ions and the ligand orbitals in the system is also analysed. The magnetic behavior of these systems has been explored by SQUID magnetometry measurements. In Chapter 4, the growth of an ordered metallic Mn5Ge3 ultra-thin interface is described. The electronic properties of the sample have been studied by XPS, XAS, and ResPES techniques. In particular, the ResPES technique has been a very useful tool to investigate the dynamics of valence electrons triggered by the Mn 2p-3d transition. In Chapter 5, the Mn-doped ?-GaSe(0001) surface has been explored starting from growth and characterization measurements. Evaporation of Mn for 9 consecutive steps on an ultra high vacuum cleaved ?-GaSe(0001) surface has been carried out. The XPS results show that Mn substitutes Ga site at the surface, for low Mn concentrations. This experiments allowed to investigate the cation substitution mechanism, and to identify the limits of Mn dilution before the onset of Mn segregation processes at the surface. Once the segregation limits have been established, new samples have been prepared, with a Mn content below this limit in order to study the electronic, and magnetic, properties the Ga1?xMnxSe surface alloy obtained by thermally-driven diffusion of Mn ions evaporated on the surface of a freshly cleaved ?-GaSe(0001) single crystal. The surface electronic properties of this system have been explored by core and valence band photoelectron spectroscopy, XAS, and ResPES. Parameterized CI models have been used to calculate the Mn spectral weight in core and valence band photoemission.

description: The melanocortin (MC) system is composed of peptides that are cleaved from the polypeptide precursor proopiomelanocortin (POMC). Recent evidence shows that chronic exposure to ethanol significantly blunts central MC peptide immunoreactivity and MC receptor (MCR) agonists protect against high ethanol intake characteristic of C57BL/6J mice. Here we assessed the role of the MC-4 receptor (MC4R) in voluntary ethanol intake and in modulating the effects of the non-selective MCR agonist melanotan-II (MTII) on ethanol consumption.

description: The J-PET detector being developed at Jagiellonian University, is a Positron Emission Tomograph composed of the long strips of polymer scintillators. At the same time it is a detector system which will be used for studies of the decays of positronium atoms. The shape of photomultiplier signals depends on the hit-time and hit-position of the gamma quantum. In order to take advantage of this fact a dedicated sampling front-end electronics which enables to sample signals in voltage domain with the time precision of about 20 ps and novel reconstruction method based on the comparison of examined signal with the model signals stored in the library has been developed. As a measure of the similarity we use the Mahalanobis distance. The achievable position and time-resolution depends on number and values of the threshold levels at which the signal is sampled. A reconstruction method, as well as preliminary results are presented and discussed.

description: SmB6 was recently proposed to be both a strong topological insulator and a topological crystalline insulator. For this and related cubic topological Kondo insulators, we prove the existence of four different topological phases, distinguished by the sign of mirror Chern numbers. We characterize these phases in terms of simple observables, and we provide concrete tight-binding models for each phase. Based on theoretical and experimental results for SmB6 we conclude that it realizes the phase with C^+_{k_z=0}=+2, C^+_{k_z=pi}=+1, C^+_{k_x=k_y}=-1, and we propose a corresponding minimal model.

TRANSMISSIBLE SPONGIFORM ENCEPHALOPATHIES (TSES): EXPERIMENTAL APPROACHES TO PATHOGENESIS, THERAPY AND PREVENTION IN ANIMAL MODELS
Creators: name: CORDA, ERICA
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2012

description: Prion diseases are perhaps the most mysterious and peculiar diseases in nature. These diseases do not rely on the general dogmas of modern biology, seen in other infectious diseases caused by conventional pathogens, such as viruses and bacteria. On the contrary, their infectious agent is an unconventional proteinaceous pathogen, termed prion, that lacks functional nucleic acids. Prion diseases are also known as Transmissible Spongiform Encephalopathies (TSEs), since the diseases are transmissible from one host to another and manifest a spongiform appearance as result of the destruction of brain tissue during a long incubation period. Prion diseases include Creutzfeldt-Jakob disease in humans, bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE, ?mad cow disease?) in ruminants, scrapie in sheep and goats and chronic wasting disease in deer and elks. As demonstrated in the BSE outbreak and its transmission to humans, the onset of diseases is not limited to a certain species but can be transmissible from one host species to another. Such a striking nature of prions has generated huge concerns in public health and attracted serious attention in the scientific communities. To date, the potential transmission of prions to human has not been alleviated and TSEs still have no reliable preclinical screening tests and effective treatments. This doctoral thesis deals widely with the prion diseases, from epidemiology to pathogenesis, from diagnosis to therapy and prevention. Moreover it describes in detail three experimental projects aimed to clarify different aspects of TSEs. In all of them wild-type mouse bioassays are used, as they are the gold standard for assessing the biological properties of prions. The goal of the first study was to assess the therapeutic and/or preventive activity on TSEs of the chronic administration of a new ?-secretase modulator. The second research investigated the ability to identify BSE in presence of scrapie. The third project was aimed to study the effects induced by chronic administration of lipid enriched/depleted specific diets on the pathogenesis of prion diseases.
Transition dynamics and metastable states during premelting and freezing of ice surfaces

description: The premelting of ice is well known, but little is known about how the premelted and solid surfaces convert to each other. In this work, the transition dynamics between two phases are revealed with large-scale molecular dynamics simulations. Supercooling and superheating states exist in the transition, and are overcome by nucleation-like processes. The natural inhomogeneity of ice surfaces enhances nuclei formation, while it only accelerates premelting but not freezing. Furthermore, the complete freezing of ice surfaces may be hindered by the stacking order mismatch between nuclei. This work points out the importance of metastable states in premelting, and the necessity of a large system scale in describing its transition process.

description: Impulsive behavior in humans predicts the onset of drinking during adolescence and alcohol use disorders (AUDs) in adulthood. It is also possible, however, that heavy drinking may increase impulsive behavior by affecting the development of brain areas that support behavioral control or through other associated mechanisms. This study examined whether drinking heavily during adolescence is related to changes in impulsive behavior with a specific focus on how the association differs across individuals, contingent on the developmental course of their impulsiveness.

description: In this article we present and compare two different, coarse-grained approaches to model electrostatic interactions of disc-shaped aromatic molecules, specifically coronene. Our study builds on previous work [J. Chem. Phys. 141, 214110 (2014)] where we proposed, based on a systematic coarse-graining procedure starting from the atomistic level, an anisotropic effective (Gay-Berne-like) potential capable of describing van-der-Waals contributions to the interaction energy. To take into account electrostatics, we introduce, first, a linear quadrupole moment along the symmetry axis of the coronene disc. The second approach takes into account the fact that the partial charges within the molecules are distributed in a ring-like fashion. We then reparametrize the effective Gay-Berne-like potential such that it matches, at short distances, the ring-ring potential. To investigate the validity of these two approaches, we perform many-particle Molecular Dynamics (MD) simulations, focusing on the crystalline phase (karpatite) where electrostatic interaction effects are expected to be particularly relevant for the formation of tilted stacked columns. Specifically, we investigate various structural parameters as well as the melting transition. We find that the second approach yields consistent results with those from experiments despite the fact that the underlying potential decays with the wrong distance dependence at large molecule separations. Our strategy can be transferred to a broader class of molecules, such as benzene or hexabenzocoronene.

Theoretical investigation of the molecular nature of $D_{s0}^*(2317)$ and $D_{s1}(2460)$ and the possibility of observing the $D\bar{D}K$ bound state $K_{c\bar{c}}(4180)$ in inclusive $e^+e^-\to c\bar{c}$ collisions

description: Searching for exotic multiquark states and elucidating their nature remains a central topic in understanding quantum chromodynamics--the underlying theory of the strong interaction. Two of the most studied such states are the charm-strange states $D_{s0}^*(2317)$ and $D_{s1}(2460)$. In this letter, we show for the first time that their prompt production yields in inclusive $e^+e^-\to c\bar{c}$ collisions near $\sqrt{s}=10.6$ GeV measured by the BABAR Collaboration, $Y(D_{s0}^*(2317))$ and $Y(D_{s1}(2460))$, in particular the ratio $R=Y(D_{s0}^*(2317))/Y(D_{s1}(2460))$, can be well explained in the molecular picture, which provide a highly nontrivial verification of their nature being $DK/D^*K$ molecules. On the contrary, treating them as pure $c\bar{s}$ $P-$wave states, the statistical model predicts a ratio $R$ smaller than unity, in contrast with the experimental central value, though in agreement with it considering its relatively large uncertainty. In addition, we predict the production yield of the $D\bar{D}K$ three-body bound state, $K_{c\bar{c}}(4180)$, in $e^+e^-\to c\bar{c}$ collisions and find that it is within the reach of the ongoing Belle II experiment. The present study demonstrates the feasibility of a novel method to unravel the nature of exotic hadrons and the potential of electron-positron collisions in this regard.

description: Naltrexone (NTX) is an opioid antagonist indicated for the treatment of alcoholism, which is not universally effective. Thus, identifying individual predictors of NTX’s behavioral effects is critical to optimizing its therapeutic use. Moreover, given the high rate of relapse during treatment for alcoholism, understanding NTX’s behavioral effects when combined with moderate ethanol intake is important. Our previous study of abstinent alcoholics and control subjects showed that a more internal Locus of Control score predicted increased impulsive choice on NTX (Mitchell et al., 2007). Here we tested whether this predictive relationship remains in the context of moderate alcohol intake.

A family-based genome-wide linkage analysis using sibling pairs that underwent an alcohol challenge where the level of response to alcohol was measured with the Subjective High Assessment Scale (SHAS) implicated the 10q terminal region. CYP2E1, a gene known for its involvement with ethanol metabolism, maps to this region.

description: Research on adolescent development suggests that peer influence may play a key role in explaining adolescents’ willingness to drink, an important predictor of drinking initiation. However, experiments that thoroughly examine these peer influence effects are scarce. This study experimentally examined whether adolescents adapted their willingness to drink when confronted with the pro-alcohol and anti-alcohol norms of peers in a chat room session and whether these effects were moderated by the social status of peers.

description: Solar activity is usually caused by the evolution of solar magnetic fields. Magnetic field parameters derived from photospheric vector magnetograms of solar active regions have been used to analyze and forecast eruptive events such as solar flares and coronal mass ejections. Unfortunately, the most recent solar cycle 24 was relatively weak with few large flares, though it is the only solar cycle in which consistent time-sequence vector magnetograms have been available through the Helioseismic and Magnetic Imager (HMI) on board the Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO) since its launch in 2010. In this paper, we look into another major instrument, namely the Michelson Doppler Imager (MDI) on board the Solar and Heliospheric Observatory (SOHO) from 1996 to 2010. The data archive of SOHO/MDI covers more active solar cycle 23 with many large flares. However, SOHO/MDI data only has line-of-sight (LOS) magnetograms. We propose a new deep learning method, named MagNet, to learn from combined LOS magnetograms, Bx and By taken by SDO/HMI along with H-alpha observations collected by the Big Bear Solar Observatory (BBSO), and to generate vector components Bx' and By', which would form vector magnetograms with observed LOS data. In this way, we can expand the availability of vector magnetograms to the period from 1996 to present. Experimental results demonstrate the good performance of the proposed method. To our knowledge, this is the first time that deep learning has been used to generate photospheric vector magnetograms of solar active regions for SOHO/MDI using SDO/HMI and H-alpha data.

description: We study the stability of three-dimensional incompressible Weyl semimetals in the presence of random quenched charge impurities. Combining numerical analysis and scaling theory we show that in the presence of sufficiently weak randomness (i) Weyl semimetal remains stable, while (ii) double-Weyl semimetal gives rise to compressible diffusive metal where the mean density of states at zero energy is finite. At stronger disorder, Weyl semimetal undergoes a quantum phase transition and enter into a metallic phase. Mean density of states at zero energy serves as the order parameter and displays single-parameter scaling across such disorder driven quantum phase transition. We numerically determine various exponents at the critical point, which appear to be insensitive to the number of Weyl pairs. We also extract the extent of the quantum critical regime in disordered Weyl semimetal and the phase diagram of dirty double Weyl semimetal at finite energies.

It is also shown that out of all possible trajectories, with limited resources, which are physically accessible and which are not. The solution is then generalized to the mixed quantum state cases, and applied to trajectories parameterized by single or multiple parameters with discrete or continuous spectrum. We then compare the solution to that of the counterdiabatic driving, and show how the Berry phase is directly involved in both driving processes.

However, the regional specificity of altered CC structure, which may point to the timing of neurodevelopmental disturbances and/or relate to specific functional impairments, is unclear. Further, associations between facial dysmorphology and callosal structure remain undetermined.

description: This study illustrates the nature of electronic transport and its transition from one mechanism to another between a metal electrode and MoS2 channel interface in a field effect transistor (FET) device. Interestingly, measurements of the contact resistance (Rc) as a function of temperature indicate a transition in the carrier transport across the energy barrier from a thermionic emission at a high temperature to tunneling at a low temperature. Furthermore, at a low temperature, the nature of the tunneling behavior is ascertained by the current-voltage dependency that helps us feature direct tunneling at a low bias and Fowler-Nordheim tunneling at a high bias for a Pd-MoS2 contact due to the effective barrier shape modulation by biasing. In contrast, only direct tunneling is observed for a Cr-MoS2 contact over the entire applied bias range. In addition, simple analytical calculations were carried out to extract Rc at the gating range, and the results are consistent with the experimental data. Our results describe the transition in carrier transport mechanisms across a metal-MoS2 interface, and this information provides guidance for the design of future flexible, transparent electronic devices based on 2-dimensional materials.

Commentary: Studies on Binge-Like Ethanol Drinking May Help to Identify the Neurobiological Mechanisms Underlying the Transition to Dependence

description: The goals of this commentary are to discuss the important contributions of the work by Kaur et al. titled “Corticotropin releasing factor acting on corticotropin releasing factor receptor type 1 is critical for binge alcohol drinking in mice”, published in this issue of Alcoholism: Clinical and Experimental Research, and to highlight the importance of pre-clinical research aimed at identifying the neurobiology of binge ethanol drinking. The work by Kaur et al. provides an important extension of previous pharmacological evidence implicating corticotropin releasing factor (CRF) type-1 receptors (CRF1R) in binge-like ethanol drinking by verifying the role of the CRF1R using genetic tools, and by establishing that CRF, but not urocortin 1 (Ucn1), is the primary neuropeptide associated with the CRF system that modulates binge-like ethanol drinking in C57BL/6J mice. It is suggested that the evidence for a critical role of the CRF1R in excessive ethanol intake observed in both models of binge-like ethanol drinking and dependence-like ethanol intake indicates that overlapping mechanisms may be involved, and that studies that employ models of binge-like ethanol drinking may provide insight into the neurobiological mechanisms that underlie the transition to ethanol dependence.

description: High-risk drinking by college students continues to pose a significant threat to public health. Despite increasing evidence of the contribution of community-level and campus-level environmental factors to high risk drinking, there have been few rigorous tests of interventions that focus on changing these interlinked environments. The Study to Prevent Alcohol Related Consequences (SPARC) assessed the efficacy of a comprehensive intervention using a community organizing approach to implement environmental strategies in and around college campuses. The goal of SPARC was to reduce high-risk drinking and alcohol-related consequences among college students.

description: The determination of the effective Coulomb interactions to be used in low-energy Hamiltonians for materials with strong electronic correlations remains one of the bottlenecks for parameter-free electronic structure calculations. We propose and benchmark a scheme for determining the effective local Coulomb interactions for charge-transfer oxides and related compounds. Intershell interactions between electrons in the correlated shell and ligand orbitals are taken into account in an effective manner, leading to a reduction of the effective local interactions on the correlated shell. Our scheme resolves inconsistencies in the determination of effective interactions as obtained by standard methods for a wide range of materials, and allows for a conceptual understanding of the relation of cluster model and dynamical mean field-based electronic structure calculations.

description: The Melanocortin (MC) peptides and opiod peptide β-endorphin are cleaved from the polypeptide precursor proopiomelanocortin (POMC). POMC-derived peptides are generated by extensive post-translational processing that involves several enzymes including prohormome convertase 1/3 and 2 (PC1/3 and PC2). Because ethanol decreases POMC mRNA levels, we determined if exposure to an ethanol-containing diet (ED) would significantly reduce central immunoreactivity of POMC, PC1/3, PC2 and β-endorphin.

description: Epidemiological studies suggest that excessive alcohol consumption is prevalent among adolescents and may have lasting neurobehavioral consequences. The use of animal models allows for the separation of the effects of adolescent ethanol exposure from genetic background and other environmental insults. In the present study the effects of moderate ethanol vapor exposure, during adolescence, on structural diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and behavioral measures were evaluated in adulthood.

description: Recently, procedures have been developed to model specific facets of human alcohol abuse disorders, including those that model excessive binge-like drinking (i.e., “drinking in the dark”, or DID procedures) and excessive dependence-like drinking (i.e., intermittent ethanol vapor exposure). Similar neuropeptide systems modulate excessive ethanol drinking stemming from both procedures, raising the possibility that both paradigms are actually modeling the same phenotypes and triggering the same central neuroplasticity. Therefore, the goal of the present project was to study the effects of a history of binge-like ethanol drinking, using DID procedures, on phenotypes that have previously been described with procedures to model dependence-like drinking.
