description: We develop a method to build new 5D $\mathcal{N}=1$ gauge models based on Sasaki-Einstein manifolds $Y^{p,q}.$ These models extend the standard 5D ones having a unitary SU$\left( p\right) _{q}$ gauge symmetry based on $% Y^{p,q}$. Particular focus is put on the building of a gauge family with symplectic SP$\left( 2r,\mathbb{R}\right) $ symmetry. These super QFTs are embedded in M-theory compactified on folded toric Calabi-Yau threefolds $% \hat{X}(Y^{2r,0})$ constructed from conical $Y^{2r,0}$. By using outer-automorphism symmetries of 5D $\mathcal{N}=1$\textbf{\ }BPS quivers with unitary SU$\left( 2r\right) $ gauge invariance, we also construct BPS quivers with symplectic SP$\left( 2r,\mathbb{R}\right) $ gauge symmetry. Other related aspects are discussed. Keywords: SCFT$_{5}$, 5D $\mathcal{N}=1$ super QFT on a finite circle, Sasaki-Einstein manifolds, BPS quivers, outer-automorphisms.

title: Humic and Fulvic Acids: Effects on Plant Nutrition and Growth
Creators: name: Tew, Jason
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2005

description: Humic substances are reported to improve plant growth and nutrient uptake, with iron the most studied nutrient. The most common forms of iron in soils are iron oxides, which are stable under aerobic conditions and unavailable for plant uptake. Iron deficient plants become chlorotic, which reduces growth and yield. To determine if humic substances can reduce iron chlorosis, five commercially available organic acids were tested on maize grown in sand columns at high pH. The dry granular humic acid from Aldrich Chemical Company applied at 84.4 g/liter of sand by volume (5% by mass) and 1 g/liter added with irrigation water, significantly reduced iron chlorosis (p

description: We present the first experimental study that maps the transformation of nuclear quadrupole resonances from the pure nuclear quadrupole regime to the quadrupole-perturbed Zeeman regime. The transformation presents an interesting quantum-mechanical problem, since the quantization axis changes from being aligned along the axis of the electric-field gradient tensor to being aligned along the magnetic field. We achieve large nuclear quadrupole shifts for I = 3/2 131-Xe by using a 1 mm^3 cubic cell with walls of different materials. When the magnetic and quadrupolar interactions are of comparable size, perturbation theory is not suitable for calculating the transition energies. Rather than use perturbation theory, we compare our data to theoretical calculations using a Liouvillian approach and find excellent agreement.

The targum (1970:Oct. 1 - 1970:Oct. 23)
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: Targum Association
Year: 1970

description: Some University historians indicate that the Targum was first published as an annual in 1867, but of this we have no extant evidence. In January 1869, the Targum as we now know it, made its appearance as a monthly paper that concerned itself with student “literary contributions” and college news as well as serving as a vehicle for bringing news to alumni and the general public. The newspaper, which originally was for sale, varied in frequency over the years as did its title (The Targum, Rutgers Targum, Rutgers Daily Targum, and Daily Targum). The newspaper has continuously been published since 1869 with the exception of 19 months during the second world war, between February 1944 and October 1945. The Targum was published by the students of Rutgers College, and later Rutgers University—New Brunswick represented through the years as the Targum Association, Rutgers Targum Association, and Rutgers College Targum. As a student organization, the Targum operated under the oversight of the dean of students and student government but in October 1980, the Targum became an independent college paper.

description: The immunogenetics community is characterised by a widespread international collaboration between laboratories with exchange of biological samples and data. However, the researchers who are involved in building and curating bioresources do not always get the credit they deserve and this is an obstacle for sharing practices. Several international initiatives have been taken in order to promote sharing of samples and data. BRIF (Bioresource Research Impact Factor) was initiated in 2003 and intended to develop a framework to enable crediting bioresources that were uniquely and persistently identified. The way of citing bioresources was standardised according to a guideline called CoBRA (Citation of BioResources in journal Articles), published in 2015. This guideline was recommended by the Equator network as well as by other organisations such as GA4GH (Global Alliance for Genomics and Health) and BBMRIERIC, the European infrastructure consortium of biobanking and biomolecular resources. In collaboration with Ubiquity press, the Open Journal of Bioresources (OJB) was created. It is a peer-reviewed open access journal with short papers describing bioresources dedicated to human biomedical research, providing them with a citable reference. However, as the problem of sharing data and resources and the recognition of such activities in research goes beyond biomedical research, we joined the Research Data Alliance (RDA), creating an interest group called ShaRC (Sharing Rewards and Credits) in 2017. This interest group works with use cases from different research areas. The ongoing work concerns operationalisation and evaluation of the sharing activity complying with the so-called FAIR principles, which mean Findable, Accessible, Interoperable and Reusable. The amount of data published in research in all areas is becoming bigger and bigger and it is important that all sorts of data can be reanalysed and possibly be co-analysed with other data by researchers that are not necessarily those who produced the original data. A grid of evaluation is being built by the ShaRC IG and will benefit from inputs at the next RDA meeting in Philadelphia (April 2019). Some of the results could be of particular interest for the Immunogenetics community and the grid will be updated to be presented at EFI.

title: Late Pleistocene Glacial Chronology of the Western Ahklun Mountains, Southwestern Alaska
Creators: name: Briner, Jason P.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1998

description: New glacial mapping and 35 cosmogenic 36Cl surface exposure ages, the first ever reported from Alaska , constrain the extent and timing of late Pleistocene glacial fluctuations in the western Ahklun Mountain s, southwe stern Alaska. Morphometric and soil relativeage data characterize two main drift units deposited during the Arolik Lake and Klak Creek glaciations , named herein. During the Arolik Lake glaciation (early Wisconsin), outlet glaciers emanated from an ice cap over the central portion of the Ahklun Mountains and deposited moraines at or beyond the modern coast. These moraines have slope angles averaging about 11° and crests averaging about 35 m wide . Four moraine boulders deposited during this glaciation have a weighted mean surface exposure age of 53.6 ± 2.0 36Cl ka.
During the Klak Creek glaciation (late Wisconsin), ice-cap outlet glaciers deposited moraines 20-80 km up-valley from Arolik Lake moraines. Valley glaciers expanded from high massifs that fringe the major river valleys in the western Ahklun Mountains and terminated independently from the relatively restricted ice-cap outlet glaciers. Moraines deposited during the Klak Creek glaciation have steeper slopes (mean = -18°) and sharper crests (mean= about 17 m) than do Arolik Lake moraines. Twenty-eight 36Cl ages were obtained from six Klak Creek moraines from three valleys and reveal two phases of glaciation during the late Wisconsin, one from about 25 to 23 36Cl ka, and another from 19 to 15 36Cl ka. An ice-cap outlet glacier moraine underlies a valley glacier terminal moraine, both of which have ages of 18-19 36Cl ka, and indicates that the ice-cap outlet glacier had retreated from its maximum position shortly before the valley glacier reached its maximum position.
Equilibrium-line altitudes (ELAs) for reconstructed Klak Creek valley glaciers average about 400 m, which is only about 200 m below the estimated modem altitude. The restricted extent of Klak Creek glaciers might reflect a lack of available moisture as sea ice covered the Bering Sea during the peak of the last global glacial maximum. When compared to the marine oxygen-isotope record, the timing of glacier advances in the western Ahklun Mountains indicates that glaciers responded to both regional and global climate changes.

description: Bridging theory and observations is a key task to understand galaxy formation and evolution. With the advent of state-of-the-art observational facilities, an accurate modelling of galaxy observables through radiative transfer simulations coupled to hydrodynamic simulations of galaxy formation must be performed. We present a novel pipeline, dubbed RTGen, based on the Monte Carlo radiative transfer code RADMC-3D , and explore the impact of the physical assumptions and modelling of dust and gas phases on the resulting galaxy observables. In particular, we address the impact of the dust abundance, composition, and grain size, as well as model the atomic-to-molecular transition and study the resulting emission from molecular gas. We apply Monte Carlo radiative transfer a posteriori to determine the dust temperature in six different hydrodynamic simulations of isolated galaxies. Afterwards, we apply ray tracing to compute the spectral energy distribution, as well as continuum images and spectral line profiles. We find our pipeline to predict accurate spectral energy distribution distributions of the studied galaxies, as well as continuum and CO luminosity images, in good agreement with literature results from both observations and theoretical studies. In particular, we find the dust modelling to have an important impact on the convergence of the resulting predicted galaxy observables, and that an adequate modelling of dust grains composition and size is required. We conclude that our novel framework is ready to perform high-accuracy studies of the observables of the ISM, reaching few tens percent convergence under the studied baseline configuration. This will enable robust studies of galaxy formation, and in particular of the nature of massive clumps in high-redshift galaxies, through the generation of mock images mimicking observations from state-of-the-art facilities such as JWST and ALMA.

description: The need for statistical models of orientations arises in many applications in engineering and computer science. Orientational data appear as sets of angles, unit vectors, rotation matrices or quaternions. In the field of directional statistics, a lot of advances have been made in modelling such types of data. However, only a few of these tools are used in engineering and computer science applications. Hence, this paper aims to serve as a cheat sheet for those probability distributions of orientations. Models for 1-DOF, 2-DOF and 3-DOF orientations are discussed. For each of them, expressions for the density function, fitting to data, and sampling are presented. The paper is written with a compromise between engineering and statistics in terms of notation and terminology. A Python library with functions for some of these models is provided. Using this library, two examples of applications to real data are presented.

title: The Tail Wags the Dog: State Versus Federal Control in the Public Domain Debate, 1929-1934
Creators: name: Hatfield, Kevin D.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1994

description: This thesis examines the evolution of public land law during the early 1930s. It focuses specifically on the development of a federal grazing policy on the remaining public domain located in the eleven western states. This period of intense intellectual conflict, concerning the relationship between private enterprise and the federal government, was a pivotal moment in the history of land law.
To explain the profound shift from the entrenched states' rights attitudes of the 1920s to the acceptance of federal control inaugurated by the Taylor Grazing Act in 1934, this thesis explores the emergence of a powerful profederal contingent from 1929 to 1934. Led by Utah politicians, businessmen, and academicians, this profederal group of westerners, USDA officials, and conservationists ultimately defeated the movement to cede the remaining public domain to the states. A series of public-policy-making events, including the Hoover Committee, the National Conference on Land Utilization, and the hearings of the House Committee on Public Lands and the Senate Committee on Public Lands and Surveys, provided these pro-federal advocates with the opportunity to consolidate their efforts and solidify their arguments.
Pro-federal proponents used the Hoover Committee to establish valuable communication links and raise a nascent voice against states' rights. The next year, during the National Conference on Land Utilization, this group promulgated the first nationally recognized plan for federal ownership of the public domain. Finally, the persuasive testimony of pro-federal witnesses before the House and Senate public lands committees divided the states' rights supporters into bitter factions and subsequently convinced the legislators to reject the bills favoring state control.
By early 1934 these events had molded a formerly disconnected group of individuals into a synergistic force that ultimately afforded Don Colton and Edward Taylor with the momentum to pass the Taylor Grazing Act. Previously scholars have neglected the critical prelude to the Taylor Grazing Act. This thesis attempts to contribute an important piece to the historiographical puzzle of public land law.

Utilizing the corrected solution we evaluate corrections to temperature, entropy and shear viscosity. We also compute the eta/s ratio which although within the range of validity of the supergravity approximation and in the lowest order of the correction the universal bound is respected, there is a possibility for a violation of the bound when higher terms in the expansion are taken into account.

title: Cenozoic Structural and Stratigraphic Evolution of the Southeastern Salmon Basin, East-Central Idaho
Creators: name: Blankenau, James J.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1999

description: The southeastern Salmon basin (SB) of east-central Idaho is a complex east-dipping half graben containing four unconformity-bounded sequences of Tertiary volcanic, alluvial fan, lacustrine, and fluvial deposits. From oldest to youngest these are the Challis volcanic group, sedimentary rocks of Tendoy (new name), sedimentary rocks of Sacajaweja (new name), and Quaternary-Tertiary deposits . The thick sequence of volcanic rocks was deposited in a southeast-trending paleovalley . New mapping, cross-cutting relationships, 40Ar/39Ar age determinations, and angular unconformities show that the SB has experienced at least four episodes of extension, and that it lies in the core of an Eocene to Oligocene rift zone. T
he largest episodes of extension in the SB were the second and third episodes of extension. These were responsible for the deposition of the sedimentary rocks of Tendoy and sedimentary rocks of Sacajaweja, respectively. Episode 2 occurred along the west southwest-dipping Agency Yearian fault, and can be attributed to gravitational collapse of the Sevier fold and thrust belt between the late middle Eocene and Oligocene (?). Several southwest-dipping low-angle normal faults were active during the third episode and may have been active into early Miocene time. The third episode of extension reflects continued gravitational collapse. Also active during episode 3 was the Salmon basin detachment fault, which is interpreted as a regional detachment based on its lateral extent and low dip angle (11°).
Extensional folds are common in the southeastern Salmon basin and represent at least two generations of folds. Interference between northnortheast and southeast-trending folds locally produced dome and basin features. The folds are typically open to gentle, and have a maximum fold height of 2.2 km. Most of the folds are fault-bend folds, and some are associated with growth strata. The development of the Tendoy anticline and Pattee Creek syncline in the hanging wall of the Agency-Yearian fault produced two depositional basins during the deposition of the sedimentary rocks of Tendoy. Facies patterns and megabreccia deposits in the subbasins indicate that there was considerable topography along the margins of the subbasins.

description: Swimming microbes, such as bacteria and algae, live in diverse habitats including soil, ocean and human body which are characterized by structural boundaries and heterogeneous fluid flows. Although much progress has been made in understanding the Brownian ratchet motions of microbes and their hydrodynamic interactions with the wall over the last decades, the complex interplay between the structural and fluidic environment and the self-propelling microbial motions still remains elusive. Here, we developed a Langevin model to simulate and investigate the transport and dispersion of microbes in periodic pillar arrays. By tracing the spatial-temporal evolution of microbial trajectories, we show that the no-slip pillar surface induces local fluid shear which redirects microbial movements. In the vicinity of pillars, looping trajectories and slowly moving speed lead to the transient accumulation and the sluggish transport of microbes. Comprehensive microscopic motions including the swinging, zigzag and adhesive motions are observed. In the pillar array of asymmetric pillar arrangements, the adjacent downstream pillars provide geometric guidance such that the microbial population has a deterministic shift perpendicular to the flow direction. Moreover, effects of the topology of the pillar array, fluid flowing properties and microbial properties on the microbial advection and dispersion in pillar arrays are quantitatively analyzed. These results highlight the importance of structures and flows on the microbial transport and distribution which should be carefully considered in the study of microbial processes.

title: Bahamian Reef Communities: Composition, Recruitment and Change (10 Meters to 250 Meters)
Creators: name: Avery, William E.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1998

description: The composition, recruitment rates and fine-scale spatial dynamics of the sessile benthic community occupying hard substrata off Lee Stocking Island, The Bahamas, was determined through photography and the deployment of artificial substrata from September 1993 to September 1996. The study spanned 10 to 250 meters in depth. The benthic community exhibited a pronounced bathymetric zonation. Filamentous and macroalgae dominated the shallow communities , but were replaced by corals, sponges and endolithic algae with increasing depth. Living cover was high above 100 m, but declined significantly below this depth, being replaced by increasing amounts of bare and sediment-covered rock surfaces. Benthic zonation was shifted downward with respect to other locations in the western Atlantic, possibly due to the clear waters of Exuma Sound allowing relatively deep light penetration.
Recruitment experiments were deployed during two time inten :als from 1994 to 1995. The experiments enabled the analysis of the effects of five treatments which differed in depth, orientation and degree of exposure. Recruitment of all sessile taxa declined sharply with depth. Peak recruitment for most taxa occurred between 20 m and 50 m. Recruitment experiments retrieved from sites located above 50 m exhibited high cover of :filamentous and macroalgae on exposed surfaces. Sponges, corals and other invertebrates dominated the cryptic surfaces. Dominance by polychaetes characterized the deeper sites.
Fine-scale changes in community structure were determined through repeat photography of natural substrata and artificial settling panels. Numerical change indices were generated for changes in cover and additions and losses of individual organisms occurring over time. Each change index began at a relatively low value at the 10 m depth, increased to a maximum value at 30 m or 50 m and then declined with increasing depth. Numbers of fish grazing scars were positively correlated with the loss index and negatively correlated \\ith algal cover, suggesting that fish contribute to fine-scale changes in the sessile community. Important contributors to fine-scale spatial changes within the benthic community shift from algae to corals to sponges with increasing depth.

description: Since it was first observed about 40 years ago [1], the peak effect has been the subject of numerous research mainly impelled by the desire to determine its exact mechanisms. Despite these efforts, a consensus on this question has yet to be reached. Experimentally, the peak effect indicates a transition from a depinned vortex phase to a reentrant pinning phase at high magnetic field. To study the effects of intrinsic pinning on the peak effect, we consider Fe$_{x}$Ni$_{1-x}$Zr$_{2}$ superconducting metallic glasses in which the vortex pinning force varies depending on the Fe content and in which a huge peak effect is seen as a function of magnetic field. The results are mapped out as a phase diagram in which it is readily seen that the peak effect becomes broader with decreasing pinning force. Typically, pinning can be understood by increased pinning centers, but here, we show that reentrant pinning is due to the strengthening of interactions (while decreasing pinning strength). Our results demonstrate the strengthening of the peak effect by collective effects.

title: The Sequence Stratigraphy of the Middle Cambrian Wheeler Formation in the Drum Mountains of West Central Utah
Creators: name: Schneider, Loren P.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2000

description: The majority of the Middle Cambrian Wheeler Formation in the Drum Mountains was deposited during a single 3rd order sequence. Superimposed onto this sequence are three indistinct 4th order cycles and twenty distinct 5th order cycles. These higher order cycles were likely deposited within short intervals of geologic time (204 to 405 ky).
The lower sequence boundary zone occurs within the Swasey Formation. The Transgressive Surface is the contact between the Swasey and Wheeler Formations. The Maximum Flooding Surface is located near the top of the lower Wheeler Formation, which also approximates the base of the Ptychagnostus atavus range zone. The upper sequence boundary is marked by stromatolites, which occur near the top of the upper member of the Wheeler Formation in the Drum Mountains.
Deposition of the Wheeler Formation in the Drum Mountains was controlled by eustacy and tectonics. Local normal faulting associated with Middle Cambrian postrifting thermal subsidence may have caused some of the 5th order cycles.
The cycles and surfaces defined in this stratigraphic analysis, and the base of the Ptychagnostus atavus and P. gibbus range-zones, can be used to correlate strata occurring in other localities in the eastern Great Basin. In addition, this study enables the evaluation of the effect of tectonics (faulting) versus global eustacy on the sedimentary regime occurring within the Middle Cambrian House Range Embayment.

description: Infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) is a ubiquitous immunosuppressive pathogen which is a severe burden to the poultry industry. Due to frequent mutation and reassortment events, its double-stranded, bi-segmented RNA genome displays a considerable heterogeneity, which in turn produces profound differences in antigenicity and pathogenicity. In recent years, the investigation of IBDV epidemiology has greatly benefited from the proposal of multiple phylogenetic classification systems which prompted the execution of molecular surveys all over the world, producing a wealth of standardized and easily sharable data. The present epidemiological survey was conducted in six Near East and Persian Gulf countries to characterize the field IBDVs circulating in the region. Ninety-three broiler flocks, immunized with different vaccination protocols, were investigated over a one-year period by collecting eight individual bursal samples at a time. Using molecular assays targeting both genome segments, field IBDVs belonging to four genotypes were detected from 42 flocks across all investigated countries. While traditional very virulent IBDVs (genotype A3B2) represented a minority, multiple atypical IBDV genotypes (A3B1, A4B1 and A6B1) were found to circulate in most of the region. Many of the detected strains were related to sequences from other continents, supporting the involvement of the Near and Middle East in complex networks of viral spreading. The obtained results, combined with the available literature, allowed us to update the epidemiological picture, hopefully favouring the identification of epidemiological threats and the planning of effective monitoring and control strategies. Different field IBDVs were found to circulate in the Near and Middle East.Multiple atypical genotypes (A3B1, A4B1, A6B1) were found to circulate extensively.Traditional very virulent IBDVs (A3B2) were a minority of the detected strains.Viral exchanges can be hypothesized between the region and different continents.

title: Chemical and Hydrostratigraphic Characterization of Ground Water and Surface Water Interactions in Cache Valley, Utah
Creators: name: Robinson, J. Mike
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1999

description: A series of five east-west and two north-south hydrostratigraphic cross sections were drawn from drillers' logs of water wells within the southern half of Cache Valley, Utah. These cross-sections demonstrate that ground water flow to streams is restricted by a continuous low- II permeability layer, nearly 100-feet thick. This layer was correlated to the lake-bottom deposits of the Bonneville (30,000 -13,000 years ago) and Little Valley (140,000 - 90,000 years ago) cycles of the ancient Lake Bonneville.
The most productive aquifers in the valley, collectively termed the principal aquifer , are in the southeast corner , approximately between Smithfield and Hyrum, and between the eastern valley margin and the valley center. Sands and gravels of the principal aquifer were deposited as alluvial fans and deltas by streams draining the Bear River Range.
Ground water chemistry in the principal aquifer system is of the calcium-magnesium bicarbonate type with total dissolved solids (TDS) averaging about 300 ± 100 mg/L. TDS and the relative proportions of sodium, potassium, and chloride increase down flowpath, from recharge areas in the east to discharge areas in the west.
Oxygen-18 (18O) and deuterium (D) analyses were performed on precipitation samples at three locations on the east valley benches, four surface water samples from streams entering the valley, and fourteen ground water samples from either wells or springs. Precipitation and surface water values generally plotted along the Global Meteoric Water Line (GMWL), although the precipitation values plotted significantly lower on the GMWL than the surface water values. Of the ground water samples, twelve from the principal aquifer generally clustered near the surface water data points, suggesting that water from streams, rather than infiltrating precipitation, recharges the principal aquifer.
Twelve ground water samples were analyzed for tritium. The tritium values of eight samples from wells or springs in the principal aquifer suggest recharge after 1952. Two samples with tritium values dating prior to 1952 are from wells in the principal aquifer, and two are from wells west of the principal aquifer.
Four samples were analyzed for 14C. Two of these wells were completed in the principal aquifer and two west of it. Correcting for partial carbon dilution, the age difference between the different areas is on the order of tens of thousands of years.

description: Presented and published at the Proceedings of International Conference on Manufacturing ICM2002, August 09-11,2002, Dhaka,Bangladesh - Department of Industrial and Production Engineering, BUET.

The presented work is a development of a simple method to
interface servo controlled multi axis robot model and is termed as ARDIC (Advanced Robot Direct Interfacing Controller)

It is a program in a common language for communicating
with any robot driven by 24 V DC servo motors by building a
database and perform the required operations . The program can teach robot movements and store them up in batch files which can be called at a later stage .
The interaction between the user and the robot is maintained by a high level of PC interfacing. There is no time lag in governing the robot arm axis. Sending and receiving signals is done through PC ports . Motion commands can be given with the arrow keys or by cursor . The software runs on Dos, Unix and Windows operating system. A compatible hardware is developed to the tune of the working conditions of the robot under test (Scorbot, Eshed Robotec). The working of the robot is satisfactory.
title: Holocene Tephrostratigraphy, Southern Kenai Peninsula, Lower Cook Inlet, Alaska
Creators: name: Lemke, Kathleen J.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2000

description: This thesis describes the results of a study of 33 tephra layers found within two peat sections near Anchor Point and Homer, Alaska, on the lower Kenai Peninsula. Numerous lower Cook Inlet volcanoes have been active through the Holocene. Tephra layers found at these two sites provide a partial record of their eruptive activity. The hazards that accompany this activity have increased as populations and commercial activities expand and air traffic over the region increases. The tephras analyzed for this study provide an initial geochemical database for the lower Cook Inlet volcanoes. The database is available in electronic format at the U.S. Geological Survey, Alaska Volcano Observatory. The Anchor Point and Homer sections contain tephras from Augustine, Iliamna, and possibly other volcanoes in the region. Anchor Point, the principal section for this study, yielded ten 14C ages ranging from 645 ± 85 cal yr BP at a depth of 14 cm to 8810 ± 205 cal yr BP at 270 cm. Seventeen tephra layers from Anchor Point and 16 from Homer were characterized by stratigraphic position, age, and grain-discrete major-element geochemical analysis by electron microprobe. Nine tephra layers are correlated by geochemical analysis between the Anchor Point and Homer sections. Several newly discovered tephra layers have been correlated with source volcanoes, three with Augustine and at least seven with Iliamna Volcano. The average recurrence interval of tephra fall events at Anchor Point is approximately 520 yrs.

description: The transit timing variation (TTV) and transmission spectroscopy analyses of the planet HAT-P-37b, which is a hot Jupiter orbiting an G-type star, were performed. Nine new transit light curves are obtained and analysed together with 21 published light curves from the literature. The updated physical parameters of HAT-P-37b are presented. The TTV analyses show a possibility that the system has an additional planet which induced the TTVs amplitude signal of 1.74 $\pm$ 0.17 minutes. If the body is located near the 1:2 mean motion resonance orbit, the sinusoidal TTV signal could be caused by the gravitational interaction of a sub-Earth mass planet with mass of 0.06 $M_\oplus$. From the analysis of an upper mass limit for the second planet, the Saturn mass planet with orbital period less than 6 days is excluded. The broad-band transmission spectra of HAT-P-37b favours a cloudy atmospheric model with an outlier spectrum in $B$-filter.

description: The ongoing global spread of Newcastle disease underscores the crucial need for continued research on the efficacy of current vaccines against various circulating strains of Newcastle disease virus (NDV). The fusion gene of a representative Egyptian genotype VII.1.1 strain was used to substitute its corresponding gene in the K148/08 vaccinal strain after site directly mutating its cleavage site from 112RRQKRF117 to 112GKQGRL117. Fusion gene exchange between GVII and GI did not affect the thermostability of GI K148/08. Attenuation of the rescued virus was confirmed by mean death time 144 h with an intracerebral pathogenicity index of 0.00. Survival analysis after the challenge experiment confirmed that 107 EID50 was the protective dose of rK148/GVII-F. The haemagglutination inhibition level of antibodies required for full clinical protection was > 3.3 log2 for rK148/GVII-F and > 4.1 log2 for both K148/08 and LaSota. Oropharyngeal viral shedding was reduced on the 5th and 7th days post-challenge in the rK148/GVII-F vaccinated group. Replication and tropism investigations confirmed the respirotropic nature of LaSota, enterotropic nature of K148/08, and further attenuation of rK148/GVII-F. Altogether, rK148/GVII-F is a thermostable, safe, effective, and genetically stable vaccine candidate that could be adequate for use in countries that encounter GVII.1.1 and in those with tropical climate, such as most Middle Eastern countries. A thermostable, safe, and effective NDV GVII recombinant vaccine was generated.Fusion gene replacement with GVII did not affect GI K148/08 virus thermostability.Strain rK148/GVII-F provided adequate protection against a lethal NDV challenge.Oropharyngeal shedding was significantly reduced on post-challenge days 5 and 7.
