description: The dynamical mass (M_dyn) is a key property of any galaxy, yet a determination of M_dyn is not straight-forward if spatially resolved measurements are not available. This situation occurs in single-dish HI observations of the local universe, but also frequently in high-redshift observations. M_dyn-measurements in high-redshift galaxies are commonly obtained through observations of the CO line, the most abundant tracer of the molecular medium. Even though the CO linewidth can in most cases be determined with reasonable accuracy, a measurement of the size of the emitting region is typically challenging given current facilities. We show how the integrated spectra (`global profiles') of a variety of galaxy models depend on the spatial distribution of the tracer gas as well as its velocity dispersion. We demonstrate that the choice of tracer emission line significantly affects the shape of the global profiles. In particular, in the case of high (~50 kms-1) velocity dispersions, compact tracers (such as CO) result in Gaussian-like (non-double-horned) profiles, as is indeed frequently seen in high-redshift observations. We determine at which radii the rotation curve reaches the rotation velocity corresponding to the velocity width, and find that for each tracer this happens at a well-defined radius: HI velocity widths typically originate at ~5 optical scale lengths, while CO velocity widths trace the rotation velocity at ~2 scale lengths. We additionally explore other distributions to take into account that CO distributions at high redshift likely differ from those at low redshift. Our models, while not trying to reproduce individual galaxies, define characteristic radii that can be used in conjunction with the measured velocity widths in order to define dynamical masses consistent with the assumed gas distribution.

description: Irrational numbers of bounded type have several equivalent characterizations. They have bounded partial quotients in terms of arithmetic characterization and in the dynamics of the circle rotation, the rescaled recurrence time to $r$-ball of the initial point is bounded below. In this paper, we consider how the bounded type condition of irrational is generalized into interval exchange maps.

description: Analysis of lending practices of credit institutions in a metro and a rural area in Kentucky in 1975 shows that much of the differences in credit terms for housing is associated with location of the borrowers. Rural borrowers depend heavily on local banks; savings and loan associations are major housing lenders in the metro area. In general, terms on housing loans offered by banks are more stringent than those offered by savings and loan associations. Few housing loans were being made across county lines. Home buyers in the rural area had fewer years to repay the loans and were required to make larger downpayments. Insufficient downpayment was the leading reason given for rejecting loans.

description: The chiral, heliconical (twist-bend) nematic ground state is reported in an achiral, rigid, bent-core mesogen (UD68). Similar to the nematic twist-bend (NTB) phase observed in bent molecular dimers, the NTB phase of UD68 forms macroscopic, smectic-like focal-conic textures and exhibits nanoscale, periodic modulation with no associated modulation of the electron density, i.e., without a detectable lamellar x-ray reflection peak. The NTB helical pitch is pTB ~ 14 nm. When an electric field is applied normal to the helix axis, a weak electroclinic effect is observed, revealing 50 um-scale left- and right-handed domains in a chiral conglomerate.

We provide examples of Courant 1-derivations on exact Courant algebroids and show that holomorphic Courant algebroids can be viewed as special types of Courant-Nijenhuis algebroids. By considering Dirac structures, one recovers the Dirac-Nijenhuis structures previously studied by the authors (in the special case of the standard Courant algebroid) and obtains an equivalent description of the Lie-Nijenhuis bialgebroids introduced by the second author via Manin triples.

description: Focused Ultrasound (FUS) coupled with intravenous administration of microbubbles (MB) is a non-invasive technique that has been shown to reliably open (increase the permeability of) the blood-brain barrier (BBB) in multiple in vivo models including non-human primates (NHP). This procedure has shown promise for clinical and basic science applications, yet the safety and potential neurological effects of long term application in NHP requires further investigation under parameters shown to be efficacious in that species (500kHz, 200–400 kPa, 4–5μm MB, 2 minute sonication). In this study, we repeatedly opened the BBB in the caudate and putamen regions of the basal ganglia of 4 NHP using FUS with systemically-administered MB over 4–20 months. We assessed the safety of the FUS with MB procedure using MRI to detect edema or hemorrhaging in the brain. Contrast enhanced T1-weighted MRI sequences showed a 98% success rate for openings in the targeted regions. T2-weighted and SWI sequences indicated a lack edema in the majority of the cases. We investigated potential neurological effects of the FUS with MB procedure through quantitative cognitive testing of’ visual, cognitive, motivational, and motor function using a random dot motion task with reward magnitude bias presented on a touchpanel display. Reaction times during the task significantly increased on the day of the FUS with MB procedure. This increase returned to baseline within 4–5 days after the procedure. Visual motion discrimination thresholds were unaffected. Our results indicate FUS with MB can be a safe method for repeated opening of the BBB at the basal ganglia in NHP for up to 20 months without any long-term negative physiological or neurological effects with the parameters used.

description: Quantum computing provides powerful algorithmic tools that have been shown to outperform established classical solvers in specific optimization tasks. A core step in solving optimization problems with known quantum algorithms such as the Quantum Approximate Optimization Algorithm (QAOA) is the problem formulation. While quantum optimization has historically centered around Quadratic Unconstrained Optimization (QUBO) problems, recent studies show, that many combinatorial problems such as the TSP can be solved more efficiently in their native Polynomial Unconstrained Optimization (PUBO) forms. As many optimization problems in practice also contain continuous variables, our contribution investigates the performance of the QAOA in solving continuous optimization problems when using PUBO and QUBO formulations. Our extensive evaluation on suitable benchmark functions, shows that PUBO formulations generally yield better results, while requiring less qubits. As the multi-qubit interactions needed for the PUBO variant have to be decomposed using the hardware gates available, i.e., currently single- and two-qubit gates, the circuit depth of the PUBO approach outscales its QUBO alternative roughly linearly in the order of the objective function. However, incorporating the planned addition of native multi-qubit gates such as the global Molmer-Sorenson gate, our experiments indicate that PUBO outperforms QUBO for higher order continuous optimization problems in general.

description: The current utility of 3D skin equivalents is limited by the fact that existing models fail to recapitulate the cellular complexity of human skin. They often contain few cell types and no appendages, in part because many cells found in the skin are difficult to isolate from intact tissue and cannot be expanded in culture. Induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs) present an avenue by which we can overcome this issue due to their ability to be differentiated into multiple cell types in the body and their unlimited growth potential. We previously reported generation of the first human 3D skin equivalents from iPSC-derived fibroblasts and iPSC-derived keratinocytes, demonstrating that iPSCs can provide a foundation for modeling a complex human organ such as skin. Here, we have increased the complexity of this model by including additional iPSC-derived melanocytes. Epidermal melanocytes, which are largely responsible for skin pigmentation, represent the second most numerous cell type found in normal human epidermis and as such represent a logical next addition. We report efficient melanin production from iPSC-derived melanocytes and transfer within an entirely iPSC-derived epidermal-melanin unit and generation of the first functional human 3D skin equivalents made from iPSC-derived fibroblasts, keratinocytes and melanocytes.

description: We present a comprehensive study of the adsorption behavior of iron phthalocyanine on the low-index crystal faces of silver. By combining measurements of the reciprocal space by means of photoelectron momentum mapping and low energy electron diffraction, the real space adsorption geometries are reconstructed. At monolayer coverage ordered superstructures exist on all studied surfaces containing one molecule in the unit cell in case of Ag(100) and Ag(111), and two molecules per unit cell for Ag(110). The azimuthal tilt angle of the molecules against the high symmetry directions of the substrate is derived from the photoelectron momentum maps. A comparative analysis of the momentum patterns on the substrates with different symmetry indicates that both constituents of the twofold degenerate FePc lowest unoccupied molecular orbital are occupied by charge transfer from the substrate at the interface.

description: We introduce a novel approach to calculating three-dimensional freeform reflectors with a scattering surface. Our method is based on optimal transport and utilizes a Fredholm integral equation to express scattering. By solving this integral equation through a process similar to deconvolution, which we call `unfolding,' we can recover a typical specular design problem. Consequently, we consider freeform reflector design with a scattering surface as a two-step process wherein the target distribution is first altered to account for scattering, and then the resulting specular problem is solved. We verify our approach using a custom raytracer that implements the surface scattering model we used to derive the Fredholm integral.
Exponential Quantum Spreading in a Class of Kicked Rotor Systems near High-Order Resonances

description: Long-lasting quantum exponential spreading was recently found in a simple but very rich dynamical model, namely, an on-resonance double-kicked rotor model [J. Wang, I. Guarneri, G. Casati, and J. B. Gong, Phys. Rev. Lett. 107, 234104 (2011)]. The underlying mechanism, unrelated to the chaotic motion in the classical limit but resting on quasi-integrable motion in a pseudoclassical limit, is identified for one special case. By presenting a detailed study of the same model, this work offers a framework to explain long-lasting quantum exponential spreading under much more general conditions. In particular, we adopt the so-called "spinor" representation to treat the kicked-rotor dynamics under high-order resonance conditions and then exploit the Born-Oppenheimer approximation to understand the dynamical evolution. It is found that the existence of a flat-band (or an effectively flat-band) is one important feature behind why and how the exponential dynamics emerges. It is also found that a quantitative prediction of the exponential spreading rate based on an interesting and simple pseudoclassical map may be inaccurate. In addition to general interests regarding the question of how exponential behavior in quantum systems may persist for a long time scale, our results should motivate further studies towards a better understanding of high-order resonance behavior in delta-kicked quantum systems.

description: We studied the exciton properties in double layers of transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDs) with a dielectric spacer between the layers. We developed a method based on an expansion of Chebyshev polynomials to solve the Wannier equation for the exciton. Corrections to the quasiparticle bandgap due to the dielectric environment were also included via the exchange self-energy calculated within a continuum model. We systematically investigated hetero double-layer systems for TMDs with chemical compounds MX2, showing the dependence of the inter- and intralayer excitons binding energies as a function of the spacer width and the dielectric constant. Moreover, we discussed how the exciton energy and its wave function, which includes the effects of the changing bandgap, depend on the geometric system setup.

description: We observed radio continuum emission in 27 local (D < 70 Mpc) star-forming galaxies with the Robert C. Byrd Green Bank Telescope between 26 GHz and 40 GHz using the Caltech Continuum Backend. We obtained detections for 22 of these galaxies at all four sub-bands and four more marginal detections by taking the average flux across the entire bandwidth. This is the first detection (full or marginal) at these frequencies for 22 of these galaxies. We fit spectral energy distributions (SEDs) for all of the four-sub-band detections. For 14 of the galaxies, SEDs were best fit by a combination of thermal free-free and nonthermal synchrotron components. Eight galaxies with four-sub-band detections had steep spectra that were only fit by a single nonthermal component. Using these fits, we calculated supernova rates, total number of equivalent O stars, and star formation rates within each ~23 arcsecond beam. For unresolved galaxies, these physical properties characterize the galaxies' recent star formation on a global scale. We confirm that the radio-far-infrared correlation holds for the unresolved galaxies' total 33 GHz flux regardless of their thermal fractions, though the scatter on this correlation is larger than that at 1.4 GHz. In addition, we found that for the unresolved galaxies, there is an inverse relationship between the ratio of 33 GHz flux to total far-infrared flux and the steepness of the galaxy's spectral index between 1.4 GHz and 33 GHz. This relationship could be an indicator of the timescale of the observed episode of star formation.

description: We have measured line widths in active region coronal loops in order to determine whether the non-thermal broadening is anisotropic with respect to the magnetic field direction. These non-thermal velocities are caused by unresolved fluid motions. Our analysis method combines spectroscopic data and a magnetic field extrapolation. We analyzed spectra from the Extreme Ultraviolet Imaging Spectrometer on Hinode. A differential emission measure analysis showed that many spectral lines that are commonly considered to be formed in the active region have a substantial contribution from the background quiet Sun. From these spectra we identified lines whose emission was dominated by the active region loops rather than background sources. Using these lines, we constructed maps of the non-thermal velocity. With data from the Helioseismic Magnetic Imager on the Solar Dynamics Observatory and the Coronal Modeling System nonlinear force-free magnetic field reconstruction code, we traced several of the magnetic field lines through the active region. Comparing the spectroscopic and magnetic data, we looked for correlations of non-thermal velocity with the viewing angle between the line of sight and the magnetic field. We found that non-thermal velocities show a weak anti-correlation with the viewing angle. That is, the tendency is for the non-thermal velocity to be slightly larger in the parallel direction. This parallel broadening may be due to acoustic waves or unresolved parallel flows.

Fertility and early embryo death in the critically endangered kakapo (Strigops habroptilus)

description: Hatching failure is a common problem for endangered birds, and kākāpō (Strigops habroptilus), are a particularly clear example. In these critically endangered flightless parrots around 61% of eggs fail to hatch, with 73% of these showing no sign of development. The low hatching success of kākāpō was previously attributed to fertilization failure, but undeveloped eggs can also result from embryo death during early stages of development. As the underlying causes of fertilization failure and embryo death differ, identifying the relative importance of these effects in driving hatching failure has implications for effective conservation management. The entire remaining population of 200 kākāpō is managed by the New Zealand Department of Conservation on several predator-free offshore islands. During the 2019 breeding season we preserved the yolks of undeveloped kākāpō eggs, then investigated their fertilization status using fluorescence microscopy. We found that the majority (72%, n=124) of undeveloped kākāpō eggs were fertilised, suggesting early embryo death is a much more important contributor to hatching failure than previously realized. We also found positive effects of artificial insemination on the numbers of sperm reaching the egg. We are continuing our investigation into kākāpō hatching failure during the 2022 breeding season, with the aim of building a more complete picture of how multiple mating, maternal traits, and other factors combine to explain fertilization failure and embryo death in kākāpō and other threatened bird species.
Interactions of solitons with an external force field: Exploring the Schamel equation framework

description: This study aims to investigate the interactions of solitons with an external force within the framework of the Schamel equation, both asymptotically and numerically. By utilizing asymptotic expansions, we demonstrate that the soliton interaction can be approximated by a dynamical system that involves the soliton amplitude and its crest position. To solve the Schamel equation, we employ a pseudospectral method and compare the obtained results with those predicted by the asymptotic theory. Remarkably, our findings reveal a qualitatively agreement between the predictions and the numerical simulations at early times. Specifically, we classify the soliton interaction into three categories: (i) steady interaction occurs when the crest of the soliton and the crest of the external force are in phase, (ii) oscillatory behavior arises when the soliton's speed and the external force speed are close to resonance, causing the soliton to bounce back and forth near its initial position, and (iii) non-reversible motion occurs when the soliton moves away from its initial position without changing its direction.

description: The report addresses the question: “How can a town that has experienced decades of decline stop that momentum through internal actions and activities”? The question is addressed with literature review of causes of rural decline. A discussion is also included on reasons to save declining places. Research on the extent of declining towns in Texas is presented as well as literature review on the extent of rural depopulation within the United States. Best practices and resources available to rural Texas towns are presented. The philosophy of permaculture is submitted as a discipline a town should adopt for town systems, including eight types of capital that may be present within a town. Systems thinking is presented as an organizational development tool for town revival with the idea that personal self-improvement and an internal transformation of community members is how to address the decline. Sierra Blanca, Texas is woven through the narrative to provide examples and context. Recommended practices the town could adopt and a perspective labeled as Leap Town are offered as a lens a town can use to structure their own vision for revival. It is based upon the idea that a town would leapfrog to the 22nd-century in their thinking and actions. Sierra Blanca is also discussed as an example where a recovery center is helping to effect change by bringing manpower, potential future residents, and a presence of hope to the community.

description: Density functional theory calculations with an on-site Coulomb repulsion term (GGA+U method) reveal competing ground states in (111) oriented (LaAlO$_3$)$_M$/(SrTiO$_3$)$_N$ superlattices with n-type interfaces, ranging from spin, orbital polarized, Dirac point Fermi surface to charge ordered flat band phases. These are steered by the interplay of (i) Hubbard U, (ii) SrTiO$_3$ quantum well thickness and (iii) crystal field spitting tied to in-plane strain. In the honeycomb lattice bilayer case N=2 under tensile strain inversion symmetry breaking drives the system from a ferromagnetic Dirac point (massless Weyl semimetal) to a charge ordered multiferroic (ferromagnetic and ferroelectric) flat band massive (insulating) phase. With increasing SrTiO$_3$ quantum well thickness an insulator-to-metal transition occurs.

description: The WTO is the product of an international agreement, and that agreement and the agreements annexed to it constitute the basic source of WTO law. The reports of panels and the Appellate Body, however, add a growingly important gloss to those texts. Most WTO disputes will be resolved primarily, if not solely, with reference to the texts and to prior reports,  and in this sense the WTO legal system may be thought of as largely self-contained.

But if the WTO legal system is largely self-contained, it is not entirely self-contained. To the contrary, it is an important part of the larger system of public international law, as reflected not only by the interpretive principles that are brought to bear on its texts, which are explicitly those of public international law, but also by its increasing recourse to the other traditional sources of public international law: custom, the teachings of publicists, general principles of law, and other international instruments, particularly those incorporated by reference into the the WTO and its agreements.

Public international law has clearly made an important contribution to WTO law. It is not yet clear that the reverse will be true, that other international tribunals will begin to see the WTO, as reflected in its adopted reports, as a source of law. Given the growing quantity and high overall quality of those reports, however, it seems likely that it is only a matter of time before this recognition begins to take place, particularly with regard to evidentiary and procedural issues that could have wider application.

description: We discuss how to apply many-body methods to correlated nanoscopic systems, and provide general criteria of validity for a treatment at the dynamical mean field theory (DMFT) approximation level, in which local correlations are taken into account, while non-local ones are neglected. In this respect, we consider one of the most difficult cases for DMFT, namely for a quasi-one-dimensional molecule such as a benzene ring. The comparison against a numerically exact solution shows that non-local spatial correlations are relevant only in the limit of weak coupling between the molecule and the metallic leads and of low inter-atomic connectivity, otherwise DMFT provides a quantitative description of the system. As an application we investigate the role of correlations on electronic transport in quantum junctions, and we show that a local Mott-Hubbard crossover is a robust phenomenon in sharp nanoscopic contacts.

Global dynamic topography observations reveal limited influence of large-scale mantle flow

description: Convective circulation of the Earth’s mantle maintains some fraction of surface topography that varies with space and time. Most predictive models show that this dynamic topography has peak amplitudes of about ±2 km, dominated by wavelengths of 104 km. Here, we test these models against our comprehensive observational database of 2,120 spot measurements of dynamic topography that were determined by analysing oceanic seismic surveys. These accurate measurements have typical peak amplitudes of ±1 km and wavelengths of approximately 103 km, and are combined with limited continental constraints to generate a global spherical harmonic model, the robustness of which has been carefully tested and benchmarked. Our power spectral analysis reveals significant discrepancies between observed and predicted dynamic topography. At longer wavelengths (such as 104 km), observed dynamic topography has peak amplitudes of about ±500 m. At shorter wavelengths (such as 103 km), significant dynamic topography is still observed. We show that these discrepancies can be explained if short-wavelength dynamic topography is generated by temperature-driven density anomalies within a sub-plate asthenospheric channel. Stratigraphic observations from adjacent continental margins show that these dynamic topographic signals evolve quickly with time. More rapid temporal and spatial changes in vertical displacement of the Earth’s surface have direct consequences for fields as diverse as mantle flow, oceanic circulation and long-term climate change.

description: We find two one-parametric families of recursion operators and use them to construct higher symmetries for the Calogero--Bogoyavlenskii--Schiff breaking soliton equation. Then we prove that the recursion operators from the first family pair-wise commute with respect to the Nijenhuis bracket (are compatible).

description: We discuss the mean and variance of the number \textquotedblleft point-particles\textquotedblright\ $\sharp _{D_{R}}$\ inside a disk $D_{R}$ centered at the origin of the complex plane $\mathbb{C}$ and of radius $R>0$ with respect to a Ginibre-type (polyanalytic) process of index $m\in \mathbb{Z}_{+}$ by quantizing the phase space $\mathbb{C} $ via a set of generalized coherent states $\left\vert z,m\right\rangle $ of the harmonic oscillator on $L^{2}\left(\mathbb{R}\right) $. By this procedure, the spectrum of the quantum observable representing the indicator function $χ_{D_{R}}$ of $ D_{R}$ (viewed as a classical observable) allows to compute the mean value of $\sharp _{D_{R}}$. The variance of $\sharp _{D_{R}}$ is obtained as a special eigenvalue of a quantum observable involving to the auto-convolution of $χ_{D_{R}}.$ By adopting a coherent states quantization approach, we seek to identify classical observables on $\mathbb{C},$ whose quantum counterparts may encode the first cumulants of $\sharp _{D_{R}}$ through spectral properties.
On $hp$-Convergence of PSWFs and A New Well-Conditioned Prolate-Collocation Scheme

description: The first purpose of this paper is to provide a rigorous proof for the nonconvergence of $h$-refinement in $hp$-approximation by the PSWFs, a surprising convergence property that was first observed by Boyd et al [J. Sci. Comput., 2013]. The second purpose is to offer a new basis that leads to spectral-collocation systems with condition numbers independent of $(c,N),$ the intrinsic bandwidth parameter and the number of collocation points. In addition, this work gives insights into the development of effective spectral algorithms using this non-polynomial basis. We in particular highlight that the collocation scheme together with a very practical rule for pairing up $(c,N)$ significantly outperforms the Legendre polynomial-based method (and likewise other Jacobi polynomial-based method) in approximating highly oscillatory bandlimited functions.

description: A continuous‐flow synthesis of aziridines by palladium‐catalyzed C(sp3)−H activation is described. The new flow reaction could be combined with an aziridine‐ring‐opening reaction to give highly functionalized aliphatic amines through a consecutive process. A predictive mechanistic model was developed and used to design the C−H activation flow process and illustrates an approach towards first‐principles design based on novel catalytic reactions.

description: Charge transfer in type-II heterostructures plays important roles in determining device performance for photovoltaic and photocatalytic applications. However, current theoretical studies of charge transfer process don't consider the effects of operating conditions such as illuminations and yield systemically larger interlayer transfer time of hot electrons in MoS2/WS2 compared to experimental results. Here in this work, we propose a general picture that, illumination can induce interfacial dipoles in type-II heterostructures, which can accelerate hot carrier transfer by reducing the energy difference between the electronic states in separate materials and enhancing the nonadiabatic couplings. Using the first-principles calculations and the ab-initio nonadiabatic molecular dynamics, we demonstrate this picture using MoS2/WS2 as a prototype. The calculated characteristic time for the interlayer transfer (60 fs) and the overall relaxation (700 fs) processes of hot electrons is in good agreement with the experiments. We further find that illumination mainly affects the ultrafast interlayer transfer process but has little effects on the relatively slow intralayer relaxation process. Therefore, the overall relaxation process of hot electrons has a saturated time with increased illumination strengths. The illumination-accelerated charge transfer is expected to universally exist in type-II heterostructures.

description: Ethusina dilobotus Chen, 1993 (Fig. 1) Material examined. – 1 male, 8.0 by 8.2 mm (NTOU), Station CD 129, 22 5.89'N, 121 5.21'E, 1271-1275 m, coll. TAIWAN 2001, R. V. "Ocean Researcher 1", 21 Aug.2001. Remarks. – The present male specimen (especially the pereoipod proportions and form of the G1) agree best with the description and figures of E. dilobotus by Chen (1993: 338, Fig. 17), although it was described (and only known) on the basis of one specimen from New Caledonia. The carapace of the present specimen, however, seems to have the lateral carapace margin less distinctly convex compared to that figured by Chen (1993: Fig. 17a) and the median frontal tooth also appears to be relatively stronger. The significance of these differences is difficult to assess; and will require more material.
