description: Additional file 3: Table S2. DNA extraction and ONT sequencing statistics for additional 8 samples. Eight NTM isolates from 8 different patients were extracted by our optimized method and sequenced on the ONT MinION. Notably, SPRI bead size selection was completed on all samples and input DNA was increased to 1000â Îźg for this sequencing run. The ONT Rapid Barcoding Kit was again used. There were no significant differences between MAC and MAB strains when comparing any of the listed statistics (unpaired, parametric t-test), nor were there any significant differences in any listed statistics when compared to the previous ONT sequencing run without size selection. Two outliers were observed with higher total reads and total bases (CHOP118112 and CHOP1500921), which may reflect variability of adapter annealing during barcoding preparation. Decreased coverage per barcode is observed compared to the ONT MinION runs with fewer barcoded samples, as expected.

Active Galactic Nuclei
Bayesian analysis

description: Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) significantly impact the evolution of their host galaxies by expelling large fractions of gas with wide-angle outflows. In this talk, I will introduce our Bayesian framework for characterizing AGN outflows, which provides substantial improvements in our ability to explore parameter space and perform robust model selection. We applied this framework to new and archival deep Chandra HETG observation of the Seyfert galaxy NGC 4051. We detected six components, spanning velocities from 100s to 10,000s km/s, and mapped their evolution across an eight year period. The most significant wind component is collisionally ionized and remains remarkably stable between the two epochs. This is the first detection in absorption of such an AGN outflow, which was enabled by using a Bayesian approach. We further obtained one of the tightest wind density constraints to date by recognizing that collisional processes can affect the state of the gas. Additionally, we detect signal from the hot halo of the Milky Way, placing competitive constraints on its properties.

description: We minimise the Canham-Helfrich energy in the class of closed immersions with prescribed genus, surface area and enclosed volume. Compactness is achieved in the class of oriented varifolds. The main result is a lower-semicontinuity estimate for the minimising sequence, which is in general false by a counter example by Große-Brauckmann. The main argument involved is showing partial regularity of the limit. It entails comparing the Helfrich energy of the minimising sequence locally to that of a biharmonic graph. This idea is by Simon, but it cannot be directly applied, since the area and enclosed volume of the graph may differ. By an idea of Schygulla we adjust these quantities by using a two parameter diffeomorphism of $\mathbb{R}^3$

description: The temporal changes in complex systems of interactions have excited the research community in recent years as they encompass understandings on their dynamics and evolution. From the collective dynamics of organizations and online communities to the spreading of information and fake news, to name a few, temporal dynamics are fundamental in the understanding of complex systems. In this work, we quantify the level of engagement in dynamic complex systems of interactions, modeled as networks. We focus on interaction networks for which the dynamics of the interactions are coupled with that of the topology, such as online messaging, forums, and emails. We define two indices to capture the temporal level of engagement: the Temporal Network (edge) Intensity index, and the Temporal Dominance Inequality index. Our surprising results are that these measures are stationary for most measured networks, regardless of vast fluctuations in the size of the networks in time. Moreover, more than 80% of weekly changes in the indices values are bounded by less than 10%. The indices are stable between the temporal evolution of a network but are different between networks, and a classifier can determine the network the temporal indices belong to with high success. We find an exception in the Enron management email exchange during the year before its disintegration, in which both indices show high volatility throughout the inspected period.

description: Sedentary time is prevalent following stroke, limiting functional improvement, and increasing cardiovascular risk. At discharge we examined: 1) change in sedentary time and activity over the following 3 months’ and 2) physical, psychological or cognitive factors predicting any change. A secondary aim examined cross-sectional associations between factors and activity at 3 months. People with stroke (n = 34) were recruited from two rehabilitation units. An activity monitor (ActivPAL3) was worn for 7 days during the first week home and 3 months later. Factors examined included physical, psychological, and cognitive function. Linear mixed models (adjusted for waking hours) were used to examine changes in sedentary time, walking, and step count over time. Interaction terms between time and each factor were added to the model to determine if they modified change over time. Linear regression was performed to determine factors cross-sectionally associated with 3-month activity. ActivPAL data were available at both time points for 28 (82%) participants (mean age 69 [SD 12] years). At 3 months, participants spent 39 fewer minutes sedentary (95%CI −70,-8 p = .01), 21 minutes more walking (95%CI 2,22 p = .02) and completed 1112 additional steps/day (95%CI 268,1956 p = .01), compared to the first week home. No factors predicted change in activity. At 3 months, greater depression (β 22 mins (95%CI 8,36) p = .004) and slower gait speed (β − 43 mins 95%CI −59,-27 p ≤ 0.001) were associated with more sedentary time and less walking activity, respectively. Sedentary time reduced and walking activity increased between discharge home and 3 months later. Interventions targeting mood and physical function may warrant testing to reduce sedentary behavior 3 months following discharge.

description: We calculate the inelastic scattering cross sections to populate one- and two-phonon states in heavy ion collisions with both Coulomb and nuclear excitations. Starting from a microscopic approach based on RPA, we go beyond it in order to treat anharmonicities and non-linear terms in the exciting field. These anharmonicities and non-linearities are shown to have important effects on the cross sections both in the low energy part of the spectrum and in the energy region of the Double Giant Quadrupole Resonance. By properly introducing an optical potential the inelastic cross section is calculated semiclassically by integrating the excitation probability over all impact parameters. A satisfactory agreement with the experimental results is obtained.

description: The extinction law and the variation of colour excess with position, luminosity as well as spectral class in young open star clusters NGC 663, NGC869, NGC 884, NGC 1502, NGC 1893, NGC 2244, NGC 2264, NGC 6611, Tr 14, Tr 15,Tr 16, Coll 228, Tr 37 and Be 86 have been studied. The difference in the minimum and maximum values of E(B-V) of cluster members has been considered as a measure of the presence of non-uniform gas and dust inside the clusters. Its value ranges from 0.22 to 1.03 mag in clusters under study, which indicates that non-uniform extinction is present in all the clusters. It has been noticed for the first time in NGC 1502 and Tr 37. It is also found that the differential colour excess in open clusters, which may be due to the presence of gas and dust, decreases systematically with the age of clusters indicating that matter is used either in star formation or blown away by hot stars or both. There is no uniformity in the variation of E(B-V) with either position or spectral class or luminosity.

description: The superexchange theory predicts dominant antiferromagnetic kinetic interaction when the orbitals accommodating magnetic electrons are covalently bonded through diamagnetic bridging atoms/groups. Here we show that explicit consideration of magnetic and (leading) bridging orbitals, together with the electron transfer between the former, reveals a strong ferromagnetic kinetic exchange contribution. First principle calculations show that it is comparable in strength with antiferromagnetic superexchange in a number of magnetic materials with diamagnetic metal bridges. In particular, it is responsible for a very large ferromagnetic coupling ($-10$ meV) between the iron ions in a Fe$^{3+}$-Co$^{3+}$-Fe$^{3+}$ complex.

description: Partial bosonisation of the two-dimensional Hubbard model focuses the functional renormalisation flow on channels in which interactions become strong and local order sets in. We compare the momentum structure of the four-fermion vertex, obtained on the basis of a patching approximation, to an effective bosonic description. For parameters in the antiferromagnetic phase near the onset of local antiferromagnetic order, the interaction of the electrons is indeed well described by the exchange of collective bosonic degrees of freedom. The residual four-fermion vertex after the subtraction of the bosonic exchange contribution is small. We propose that similar partial bosonisation techniques can improve the accuracy of renormalisation flow studies also for the case of competing order.

description: Motivated by the absence of cooperative Jahn-Teller effect in LiNiO2 and BaVS3, two layered oxides with triangular planes, we study the SU(4) symmetric spin-orbital model on the triangular lattice. Upon reducing the next-nearest neighbour coupling, we show that the system undergoes a quantum phase transition to a liquid phase. A variational approach to this liquid phase shows that simple types of long-range correlations are suppressed, suggesting that it is stable against lattice distortions.

description: Background: Stroke-related falls occur at especially high rates in rehabilitation settings. Inpatient-hospital falls have been identified as one of the most common medical complications after stroke, negatively influencing recovery, nevertheless, the role of cognition in relation to falls during inpatient rehabilitation is largely unexplored. Objective. We aim to predict inpatient falls in a subacute stroke rehabilitation setting using previously reported variables such as stroke severity, gender, age, ataxia, hemiparesis, and functionality in activities of daily living, further extending them with specific cognition variables assessing memory, verbal fluency, attention, and orientation. Methods: This observational study included 158 stroke patients admitted to a rehabilitation center between 2007 and 2019, with less than 30 days since stroke onset to admission. Stroke severity was assessed using the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS). Four logistic regressions were performed including NIHSS, age, sex, ataxia, and hemiparesis plus one of the following: (1) Functional Independence Measure cognitive (C-FIM) and motor (M-FIM) subtests. (2) individual C-FIM items, (3) Ray Auditory Verbal Memory Test (RAVLT) and (4) verbal fluency test (PMR), Digit Span from Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale (WAIS III), and Orientation from Test Barcelona. Results: Neither NIHSS, age, sex, ataxia nor hemiparesis predicted falls. C-FIM was a significant predictor (AUC:0.891), but not M-FIM. The problem solving C-FIM item (AUC:0.836), the RAVLT learning subtest (AUC:0.879), and PMR verbal fluency (AUC:0.871) were significant predictors for each model, respectively. Conclusions: Cognition assessments, i.e., one FIM item, one RAVLT item, or a one-minute verbal fluency test are significant falls predictors.

description: The shallow-water hydrothermal vent system of Kueishan Island has been described as one of the world's most acidic and sulfide-rich marine habitats. The only recorded metazoan species living in the direct vicinity of the vents is Xenograpsus testudinatus, a brachyuran crab endemic to marine sulfide-rich vent systems. Despite the toxicity of hydrogen sulfide, X. testudinatus occupies an ecological niche in a sulfide-rich habitat, with the underlying detoxification mechanism remaining unknown. Using laboratory and field-based experiments, we characterized the gills of X. testudinatus that are the major site of sulfide detoxification. Here sulfide is oxidized to thiosulfate or bound to hypotaurine to generate the less toxic thiotaurine. Biochemical and molecular analyses demonstrated that the accumulation of thiosulfate and hypotaurine is mediated by the sodium-independent sulfate anion transporter (SLC26A11) and taurine transporter (Taut), which are expressed in gill epithelia. Histological and metagenomic analyses of gill tissues demonstrated a distinct bacterial signature dominated by Epsilonproteobacteria. Our results suggest that thiotaurine synthesized in gills is used by sulfide-oxidizing endo-symbiotic bacteria, creating an effective sulfide-buffering system. This work identified physiological mechanisms involving host-microbe interactions that support life of a metazoan in one of the most extreme environments on our planet.

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The Milky Way disc presents a warp, a flare, lopsidedness and other deviations from a purely axisymmetrical double exponential density component, both for the stellar and the gas component. Moreover, recent large-scale extended kinematics maps of Gaia data have shown significant departures from circularity in the mean orbits with radial Galactocentric velocities between -20 and +20 km/s and vertical velocities between -10 and +10 km/s, asymmetries northern/southern and other anomalies. The observed features are sensitive to internal and external forces, especially at the largest Galactocentric distances. Here we review some of the Galactic dynamics hypotheses that explain these anomalies: either in terms of gravitational interaction, magnetic fields, accretion of intergalactic matter or others. The gravitational interaction may be among the different components of the Galaxy or between the Milky Way and another companion galaxy. The accretion of intergalactic matter may be either into the halo, with a later gravitational interaction between the misaligned halo and the disc, or directly onto the disc. Most of the relevant observations are explained in terms of the accretion of intergalactic matter onto a disc that is far from a simple stationary configuration in rotational equilibrium. Other hypotheses only partially explain some observations.

description: Conservation agriculture (CA) is promoted as a cropping system that has potential to alleviate poor crop yields in smallholder farming while protecting the environment. It involves maintenance of permanent soil cover, diverse crop rotations and/or interactions; and minimum soil disturbance. CA is associated with crop residue management challenges due to low crop biomass yields and crop-livestock interactions in Zimbabwean smallholder farming sector. There is competition on crop residue uses causing challenges in retaining adequate crop residues for full benefits of using residues to be realised. Among the crop residues management options fencing fields reduces the chances of crop residues grazing by free roaming cattle during the dry season. Construction of rakes to pile up crop residues where cattle cannot access has been practiced in some communal areas. Farmers have practised the system of taking the crop residue harvest to homesteads into protected areas to reduce risk of grazing. Farmers may use fences around fields to reduce access into fields. However, all these management options require an investment from the farmers who are resource constrained. Farmers may use non-crop residues such as thatch grass and reduce competition for crop residue use where farmers feed them to livestock during the dry season.
Re-examining interaction and transactional distance through the lived experiences of postgraduate online distance learners.
Creators: name: Stapleford, Katharine
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2021

description: Current research into online distance education (ODE) has established the importance of interaction to counter the potential isolation experienced by online distance learners (ODLs). Consequently, programme designers and instructors seek to maximise opportunities for interaction in their delivery. However, much of this research is confined to institutionally bound conceptions of interaction; interactions occurring beyond the study environment, particularly for postgraduate distance learners, are significant but are less thoroughly investigated. Moore's (1993) theory of transactional distance (TTD), which claims that distance learning is characterised by the psychological and communicative separation of teacher and learner, is often used as a basis for 'testing' how effective different forms of interaction are in reducing transactional distance (TD). Despite its transcendental usefulness, TTD was developed at a time when distance learning was of the correspondence variety; thus, it tends to be instruction- and instructor-focused without appropriately reflecting contemporary ODE. Therefore, there is a need to re-examine the theory from the ODL perspective. Using narrative inquiry and photo-elicitation, this thesis investigates the lived experiences of part-time postgraduate online distance learners (ODLs) studying a professionally related master’s degree. I draw on Dewey’s (1946, 1960) theory of transactionalism to examine the multiple interactions ODLs engage in within and beyond the study environment, and how these impact on their experienced TD. The narrative data suggest that interactions are complex, multi-layered and occupy multiple spaces, and are therefore more accurately conceived of as non-dualistic educational transactions. These transactions suggest that TTD is no longer sufficient for understanding the ODL experience. I offer a more nuanced interpretation of the theory, informed by participants' stories and recast from the learners’ perspective. This reconceptualisation will be of interest to ODE programme designers, instructors, and administrators when seeking to ensure a meaningful ODE experience.

description: The area law for entanglement provides one of the most important connections between information theory and quantum many-body physics. It is not only related to the universality of quantum phases, but also to efficient numerical simulations in the ground state. Various numerical observations have led to a strong belief that the area law is true for every non-critical phase in short-range interacting systems. However, the area law for long-range interacting systems is still elusive, as the long-range interaction results in correlation patterns similar to those in critical phases. Here, we show that for generic non-critical one-dimensional ground states with locally bounded Hamiltonians, the area law robustly holds without any corrections, even under long-range interactions. Our result guarantees an efficient description of ground states by the matrix-product state in experimentally relevant long-range systems, which justifies the density-matrix renormalization algorithm.

description: We have applied a relativistic Tolman-Bondi model of the Virgo cluster to a sample of 183 galaxies with measured distances within a radius of 8 degrees from M87. We find that the sample is significantly contaminated by background galaxies which lead to too large a cluster mean distance if not excluded. The Tolman-Bondi model predictions, together with the HI deficiency of spiral galaxies, allows one to identify these background galaxies. One such galaxy is clearly identified among the 6 calibrating galaxies with Cepheid distances. As the Tolman-Bondi model predicts the expected distance ratio to the Virgo distance, this galaxy can still be used to estimate the Virgo distance, and the average value over the 6 galaxies is 15.4 +- 0.5 Mpc. Well-known background groups of galaxies are clearly recovered, together with filaments of galaxies which link these groups to the main cluster, and are falling into it. No foreground galaxy is clearly detected in our sample. Applying the B-band Tully-Fisher method to a sample of 51 true members of the Virgo cluster according to our classification gives a cluster distance of 18.0 +- 1.2 Mpc, larger than the mean Cepheid distance. Finally, the same model is used to estimate the Virgo cluster mass, which is M = 1.2 10^{15} Msun within 8 degrees from the cluster center (2.2 Mpc radius), and amounts to 1.7 virial mass.

description: When a sinusoidal (ac) field is applied to a suspension containing nonlinear dielectric particles, the electrical response will generally consist of ac fields at frequencies of the higher-order harmonics. The situation is further complicated by an intrinsic dielectric dispersion which often occurs due to the surface conductivity or inhomogeneous structure of the particles. We perform a perturbation method to investigate the effect of intrinsic dielectric dispersion on the harmonics of local field as well as induced dipole moment. The results showed, for weak intrinsic dispersion strength, the ratio of the third to first harmonics of the induced dipole moment decreases as the frequency increases, which is qualitatively in agreement with experimental result. However, for a strong dispersion strength, the harmonics ratio increases as the frequency increases. Moreover, an increase in the intrinsic relaxation time may increase the strength of harmonics.

description: A general-covariant statistical framework capable of describing classical fluctuations of the gravitational field is a thorny open problem in theoretical physics, yet ultimately necessary to understand the nature of the gravitational interaction and a key to quantum gravity. Inspired by Souriau's symplectic generalization of the Maxwell-Boltzmann-Gibbs equilibrium in Lie group thermodynamics, we investigate a spacetime-covariant formulation of statistical mechanics for parametrized first-order field theories, as a simplified model sharing essential general covariant features with canonical general relativity. Starting from a covariant multi-symplectic phase space formulation, we define a general-covariant notion of Gibbs state in terms of the covariant momentum map associated with the lifted action of the diffeomorphisms group on the extended phase space. We show how such a covariant notion of equilibrium encodes the whole information about symmetry, gauge and dynamics carried by the theory, associated to a canonical spacetime foliation, where the covariant choice of a reference frame reflects in a Lie algebra-valued notion of local temperature. We investigate how physical equilibrium, hence time evolution, emerges from such a state and the role of the gauge symmetry in the thermodynamic description.

description: This study examines social-cultural function that arise on wet-land rice cultivation system. The observations and data analysis showed that employment absorption and emergence of social cohesion among farmers that enhance the technological innovation of organic rice cultivation were felt due to the application of organic farming system. Organic rice farming systems tend to gave higher economic value as labor absorber, but this study found that organic rice farming system did not guarantee farming tradition maintenance and increasing of farmer women participation.
Probing chiral-odd GPD's in diffractive electroproduction of two vector mesons

description: We consider the electroproduction of two vector mesons with a large rapidity gap between them on a nucleon target in the process $ γ^* N \to ρ_1 ρ_2 N'$. We calculate the Born term for this process within the collinear factorization framework. The resulting scattering amplitude may be represented as a convolution of an impact factor describing the $γ^* \to ρ_1$ transition and an amplitude describing the $N\to ρ_2 N'$ transition. The latter amplitude is analogous to deeply virtual electroproduction of a meson, the virtual photon being replaced by two gluon (Pomeron) exchange . The long distance part of this amplitude is described by Generalized Parton Distributions (GPD) and meson light-cone distributions. The selection of a transversely polarized vector meson $ρ_2$ provides the first feasible selective access to chiral-odd GPD.

Swampland, Gradient Flow and Infinite Distance

description: In the first part of this paper we will work out a close and so far not yet noticed correspondence between the swampland approach in quantum gravity and geometric flow equations in general relativity, most notably the Ricci flow. We conjecture that following the gradient flow towards a fixed point, which is at infinite distance in the space of background metrics, is accompanied by an infinite tower of states in quantum gravity. In case of the Ricci flow, this conjecture is in accordance with the generalized distance and AdS distance conjectures, which were recently discussed in the literature, but it should also hold for more general background spaces. We argue that the entropy functionals of gradient flows provide a useful definition of the generalized distance in the space of background fields. In particular we give evidence that for the Ricci flow the distance $Δ$ can be defined in terms of the mean scalar curvature of the manifold, $Δ\sim\log \bar R$. For a more general gradient flow, the distance functional also depends on the string coupling constant. In the second part of the paper we will apply the generalized distance conjecture to gravity theories with higher curvature interactions, like higher derivative $R^2$ and $W^2$ terms. We will show that going to the weak coupling limit of the higher derivative terms corresponds to the infinite distance limit in metric space and hence this limit must be accompanied by an infinite tower of light states. For the case of the $R^2$ or $W^2$ couplings, this limit corresponds to the limit of a small cosmological constant or, respectively, to a light additional spin-two field in gravity. In general we see that the limit of small higher curvature couplings belongs to the swampland in quantum gravity, just like the limit of a small $U(1)$ gauge coupling belongs to the swampland as well.
