description: We describe a global optimization technique using `basin-hopping' in which the potential energy surface is transformed into a collection of interpenetrating staircases. This method has been designed to exploit the features which recent work suggests must be present in an energy landscape for efficient relaxation to the global minimum. The transformation associates any point in configuration space with the local minimum obtained by a geometry optimization started from that point, effectively removing transition state regions from the problem. However, unlike other methods based upon hypersurface deformation, this transformation does not change the global minimum. The lowest known structures are located for all Lennard-Jones clusters up to 110 atoms, including a number that have never been found before in unbiased searches.

description: Rice blast is one of the most destructive diseases of rice and is caused by the infection with rice blast fungus, Magnaporthe oryzae. In the present study, we obtained 12 bacterial isolates from Sichuan basin neutral purplish soil. Among them, the strain named ZW-10 showed significant activity against M. oryzae. Morphological and biochemical studies, along with 16S rDNA sequencing analysis, proved that the strain belongs to Bacillus velezensis. The cell-free culture filtrate of ZW-10 inhibited the growth of M. oryzae, suggesting the presence of active enzymes and secondary metabolites. The experimental results showed that ZW-10 produced cellulase, protease, and peroxidase. The temperature experiment indicated that the secondary metabolisms of ZW-10 remained active at high temperature. In addition, this strain had good acidity resistance. As shown in leaf experiments in vitro as well as field trials, the liquid culture and the cell-free culture filtrate of ZW-10 had significant inhibitory effects on rice blast. In conclusion, ZW-10 can be used as a potential biological agent in the control of rice blast.

description: It is well known that the kinetics of an intracellular biochemical network is stochastic. This is due to intrinsic noise arising from the random timing of biochemical reactions in the network as well as due to extrinsic noise stemming from the interaction of unknown molecular components with the network and from the cell's changing environment. While there are many methods to study the effect of intrinsic noise on the system dynamics, few exist to study the influence of both types of noise. Here we show how one can extend the conventional linear-noise approximation to allow for the rapid evaluation of the molecule numbers statistics of a biochemical network influenced by intrinsic noise and by slow lognormally distributed extrinsic noise. The theory is applied to simple models of gene regulatory networks and its validity confirmed by comparison with exact stochastic simulations. In particular we show how extrinsic noise modifies the dependence of the variance of the molecule number fluctuations on the rate constants, the mutual information between input and output signalling molecules and the robustness of feed-forward loop motifs.

description: The traditional management of hay meadows has allowed them to maintain a notable part of biodiversity currently threatened by recent changes in agricultural uses. In the North Eastern region of France, the large pink, Dianthus superbus L. (Caryophyllaceae), mainly grows in hay meadows, and its protected status implies a conservation strategy merging information about its demography, its genetic diversity and its ecology. This study has revealed that the population size of D. superbus is correlated with the trophic status of meadows, with a decrease from mesotrophic to eutrophic meadows. No relation has been established between population size and habitat size, spatial isolation or habitat connectivity. Moreover, AFLPs genetic fingerprints indicated equivalent genetic diversities among meadows, without impact of population size or habitat characteristics. The absence of genetic structure and the lack of population differentiation suggest a large genetic admixture at the regional scale. The most crucial issue for the conservation of D. superbus in the North Eastern region of France seems to be the modification of its habitat due to the eutrophication of hay meadows.

description: Many six-dimensional $(1,0)$ SCFTs are known to fall into families labelled by nilpotent orbits of certain simple Lie algebras. For each of the three infinite series of such families, we show that the anomalies for the continuous zero-form global symmetries of a theory labelled by a nilpotent orbit $O$ of $\mathfrak{g}$ can be determined from the anomalies of the theory associated to the trivial nilpotent orbit (the parent theory), together with the data of $O$. In particular, knowledge of the tensor branch field theory is bypassed completely. We show that the known anomalies, previously determined from the geometric/atomic construction, are reproduced by analyzing the Nambu--Goldstone modes inside of the moment map associated to the $\mathfrak{g}$ flavor symmetry of the parent SCFT. This provides further evidence for the physics underlying the labelling of the SCFTs by nilpotent orbits. We remark on some consequences, such as the reinterpretation of the 6d $a$-theorem for such SCFTs in terms of group theory.

Such a Riemann surface need not be affine algebraic and in particular it may have infinite genus or an infinite number of Freudenthal ends. Under mild conditions on the Landau-Ginzburg superpotential, we give a complete description of the triangulated structure of the category of topological D-branes in such models as well as counting formulas for the number of topological D-branes considered up to relevant equivalence relations.

description: 5G is envisioned to improve major key performance indicators (KPIs), such as peak data rate, spectral efficiency, power consumption, complexity, connection density, latency, and mobility. This chapter aims to provide a complete picture of the ongoing 5G waveform discussions and overviews the major candidates. It provides a brief description of the waveform and reveals the 5G use cases and waveform design requirements. The chapter presents the main features of cyclic prefix-orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (CP-OFDM) that is deployed in 4G LTE systems. CP-OFDM is the baseline of the 5G waveform discussions since the performance of a new waveform is usually compared with it. The chapter examines the essential characteristics of the major waveform candidates along with the related advantages and disadvantages. It summarizes and compares the key features of different waveforms.

description: The news media’s ability to mobilise citizens to participate politically by emphasising elite conflict in politics is not well understood. This article argues that citizens may gain knowledge when exposed to conflict news framing. It further theorises that whether they translate their knowledge into political participation is conditioned by their orientation towards conflict. Individuals who avoid conflict participate less frequently than individuals who do not. The proposed moderated mediation process was tested using a content analysis of news media coverage and a three-wave panel survey (n = 2,061). Results show that the effect of exposure to conflict news framing on (changes in) political participation is positively mediated by knowledge. This mediation effect is moderated by conflict avoidance, where the effect is more positive among conflict non-avoiders than conflict avoiders. This study shows that understanding the news media’s mobilising effect on political participation requires attention to both news content and individual motivational factors.

description: We study the effects of the position of the passive and active cavities on the spontaneous parity-time (PT) symmetry breaking behavior in non-Hermitian coupled cavities array model. We analyze and discuss the energy eigenvalue spectrums and PT symmetry in the topologically trivial and nontrivial regimes under three different cases in detail, i.e., the passive and active cavities are located at, respectively, the two end positions, the second and penultimate positions, and each position in coupled cavities array. The odevity of the number of cavities is further considered to check the effects of the non-Hermitian terms applied on the PT symmetric and asymmetric systems. We find that the position of the passive and active cavities has remarkable impacts on the spontaneous PT symmetry breaking behavior, and in each case the system exhibits distinguishable and novel spontaneous PT symmetry breaking characteristic, respectively. The effects of the non-Hermitian terms on the $\mathcal{PT}$ symmetric and asymmetric systems due to the odevity are comparatively different in the first case while qualitatively same in the second case.

description: The lattice QCD analysis of the HAL QCD Collaboration has recently derived $ΩN$ and $ΩΩ$ interacting potentials with nearly physical quark masses ($m_π\simeq $ 146 MeV and $m_K \simeq $ 525 MeV). They found an attractive interaction in the $ΩN$ $^5S_2$ channel which supports a bound state with a central binding energy of 1.54 MeV. The $ΩΩ$ $^1S_0$ channel shows an overall attraction with a bound state with a central binding energy of 1.6 MeV. In this paper we looked closely at the $ΩNN$ and $ΩΩN$ three-body systems making use of the latest HAL QCD Collaboration $ΩN$ and $ΩΩ$ interactions. Our results show that the $Ωd$ system in the state with maximal spin $(I)J^P=(0)5/2^+$ is bound with a binding energy of about 20 MeV. The $(I)J^P=(1)3/2^+$ $Ωnn$ state presents a resonance decaying to $ΛΞn$ and $ΣΞn$, with a separation energy of $\sim$ 1 MeV. The $(I)J^P=(1/2)1/2^+$ $ΩΩN$ state also exhibits a resonance decaying to $ΛΞΩ$ and $ΣΞΩ$, with a separation energy of $\sim$ 4.6 MeV. We have calculated the contribution of the Coulomb potential to differentiate among the different charged states.

Such an unconventional behaviour is tied to the diffusion pole of the delocalised (uncondensed) vortices.

description: 2D copper sulfide nanocrystals are promising building blocks for plasmonic materials in the near-infrared (NIR) spectral region. We demonstrate precise shape and size control (hexagonal/triangle) of colloidal plasmonic copper sulfide (covellite) nano-prisms simply by tuning the precursors concentration without introduction of additional ligands. The ultra-thin 2D nanocrystals possess sizes between 13 and 100 nm and triangular or hexangular shapes. We also demonstrate CuS nanosheets (NSs) with lateral sizes up to 2 microns using a syringe pump. Based on the experimental findings and DFT simulations we propose a qualitative and quantitative mechanism for the formation of different shapes. The analysis of the spectral features in the NIR of synthesized CuS nanocrystals has been performed in respect to the shape and the size of particles by the discrete dipole approximation method and the Drude-Sommerfeld theory.

description: We analyse the dynamics of spinodal decomposition in inflationary cosmology using the closed time path formalism of out of equilibrium quantum field theory combined with the non-perturbative Hartree approximation. In addition to a general analysis, we compute the detailed evolution of two inflationary models of particular importance: lambda Phi^4 new inflation and natural inflation. We compute the metric fluctuations resulting from inflationary phase transitions in the slow roll approximation, showing that there exists a regime for which quantum fluctuations of the inflaton field result in a significant deviation in the predictions of the spectrum of primordial density perturbations from standard results. We provide case examples for which a blue tilt to the power spectrum (i.e. n_s > 1) results from the evolution of a single inflaton field, and demonstrate that field fluctuations may result in a scalar amplitude of fluctuations significantly below standard predictions, resulting in a slight alleviation of the inflationary fine tuning problem. We show explicitly that the metric perturbation spectrum resulting from inflation depends upon the state at the outset of the inflationary phase.

Effect of a neutron-star crust on the r-mode instability

description: The presence of a viscous boundary layer under the solid crust of a neutron star dramatically increases the viscous damping rate of the fluid r-modes. We improve previous estimates of this damping rate by including the effect of the Coriolis force on the boundary-layer eigenfunction and by using more realistic neutron-star models. If the crust is assumed to be perfectly rigid, the gravitational radiation driven instability in the r-modes is completely suppressed in neutron stars colder than about 1.5 x 10^8 K. Energy generation in the boundary layer will heat the star, and will even melt the crust if the amplitude of the r-mode is large enough. We solve the heat equation explicitly (including the effects of thermal conduction and neutrino emission) and find that the r-mode amplitude needed to melt the crust is approximately a_c = 5 x 10^{-3} for maximally rotating neutron stars. If the r-mode saturates at an amplitude larger than a_c, the heat generated is sufficient to maintain the outer layers of the star in a mixed fluid-solid state analogous to the pack ice on the fringes of the Arctic Ocean. We argue that in young, rapidly rotating neutron stars this effect considerably delays the formation of the crust. By considering the dissipation in the ice flow, we show that the final spin frequency of stars with r-mode amplitude of order unity is close to the value estimated for fluid stars without a crust.

description: Drought is a major abiotic stress factor that affects the yield of maize (Zea mays L.) during the grain filling period. Therefore, it is critical to reveal the molecular mechanisms underlying maize drought stress tolerance. To analyze the characteristics and functions of differentially abundant proteins (DAPs) in response to drought stress during the maize kernel-filling stage, here, two maize hybrid varieties with contrasting drought tolerance (tolerant ND476 and sensitive ZX978) were subjected to water sufficient (control) and water deficit (drought) treatment conditions for 12 days at the grain filling stage. Physiological assays and leaf proteome analysis were performed. We conducted iTRAQ analysis on 12 samples from 4 groups and obtained 1,655 DAPs. Amongst these, five essential sets of drought responsive DAPs were identified by bioinformatics techniques. Four significantly enriched metabolic pathways were identified in ND476, which were shown to be associated with the ribosome, metabolic, basal transcription factors and photosynthesis pathways. Further, the phenotypic characterization and qRT-PCR analysis confirmed our iTRAQ sequencing data. Remarkably, significantly higher drought tolerance of ND476 may be attributed to the following responses: (a) oxidoreductase, peroxidase and hydrolytic enzyme activities to promote cell redox homeostasis maintenance; (b) elevated expression of stress defense proteins; and (c) reduced synthesis of redundant proteins in order to help plants preserve energy to fight drought stress. In conclusion, these results offer more insights into the molecular mechanisms underlying maize drought tolerance at the grain filling stage and can be a foundational basis for molecular breeding of drought tolerant maize varieties.

description: Thiosemicarbazides (2a–e) were obtained by the interaction of furan-2-carboxylic acid hydrazide (1) with five different isothiocyanate (RNCS) derivatives. By addition of KOH to the reaction medium, ethyl, allyl, phenyl and benzyl, p-tolyl substituted 1,2,4-triazoles (3a–e) were obtained. 3a–e were dissolved in dry acetone containing K2CO3 in the presence of 2-chloro-1-(3-methyl-3-mesitylcyclobutyl) ethanone (4) to give 3,4,5-trisubstituted 1,2,4-triazole sulfanyl compounds containing a cyclobutane ring (5a–e). The structures of the final compounds were confirmed by elemental analyses, FT-IR, 1H-NMR and 13C-NMR. The antioxidant and antitumor properties of the synthesized compounds were also investigated. Three of the triazole derivatives with p-tolyl, benzyl and phenyl substituents (5c–e) displayed good antioxidant and antitumor activity in comparison to the standards.

description: We present a common pulse retrieval algorithm (COPRA) that can be used for a broad category of ultrashort laser pulse measurement schemes including frequency-resolved optical gating (FROG), interferometric FROG, dispersion scan, time domain ptychography, and pulse shaper assisted techniques such as multiphoton intrapulse interference phase scan (MIIPS). We demonstrate its properties in comprehensive numerical tests and show that it is fast, reliable and accurate in the presence of Gaussian noise. For FROG it outperforms retrieval algorithms based on generalized projections and ptychography. Furthermore, we discuss the pulse retrieval problem as a nonlinear least-squares problem and demonstrate the importance of obtaining a least-squares solution for noisy data. These results improve and extend the possibilities of numerical pulse retrieval. COPRA is faster and provides more accurate results in comparison to existing retrieval algorithms. Furthermore, it enables full pulse retrieval from measurements for which no retrieval algorithm was known before, e.g., MIIPS measurements.

description: We study transport in a class of physical systems possessing two conserved chiral charges. We describe a relation between universality of transport properties of such systems and the chiral anomaly. We show that the non-vanishing of a current expectation value implies the presence of gapless modes, in analogy to the Goldstone theorem. Our main tool is a new formula expressing currents in terms of anomalous commutators. Universality of conductance arises as a natural consequence of the nonrenormalization of anomalies. To illustrate our formalism we examine transport properties of a quantum wire in (1+1) dimensions and of massless QED in background magnetic field in (3+1) dimensions.

description: We report that annealing in low-oxygen-partial-pressure (low-p$_{\rm O2}$) ambient is effective in reducing the interface state density (D$_{\rm IT}$) at a SiC (0001)/SiO$_{\rm 2}$ interface near the conduction band edge (E$_{\rm C}$) of SiC. The D$_{\rm IT}$ value at E$_{\rm C}$$-$0.2 eV estimated by a high (1 MHz)-low method is 6.2$\times$10$^{12}$ eV$^{-1}$cm$^{-2}$ in as-oxidized sample, which is reduced to 2.4${\times}$10$^{12}$ eV$^{-1}$cm$^{-2}$ by subsequent annealing in O$_{\rm 2}$ (0.001%) at 1500${}^\circ$C, without interface nitridation. Although annealing in pure Ar induces leakage current in the oxide, low-p$_{\rm O2}$ annealing (p$_{\rm O2}$ = 0.001 - 0.1 %) does not degrade the oxide dielectric property (breakdown field ~ 10.4 MVcm$^{-1}$).

description: Castor (Ricinus communis L.) is one of the world's top ten oil crops. China is the second largest producer of castor beans, but China's castor bean acreage has been declining. A principal reason for this decline is the prevalence of weeds and the absence of herbicide resistant varieties of castor plants. In this study, we used Agrobacterium-mediated gene transfer to introduce the EPSPS (5-enolpyruvylshikimate-3-phosphate synthase) gene, which confers resistance to glyphosate, and the Bar (phosphinothricin N-acetyltransferase) gene, encoding resistance to glufosinate, into castor 2129 (high stem excellent recovery line) and CSR 181 (dwarf stem excellent recovery line). The transgenic plants exhibited significantly increased expression of the EPSPS and Bar genes and significantly increased resistance to glyphosate and glufosinate. Proteomic analysis showed differences in the amounts of 20 proteins in the dwarf stem transgenic plants. Nine of these proteins are involved in photosynthesis and indirectly related to the mechanism of action of the Bar gene. Eight proteins are involved in defense, repair, stress response, oxidative phosphorylation, and metabolic pathways and are indirectly related to the mechanism of action of the EPSPS gene. These results provide a foundation for the preparation of high herbicide resistant castor varieties.

description: We propose a long-distance continuous-variable measurement-device-independent quantum key distribution (CV-MDI-QKD) protocol with discrete modulation. This kind of discrete-modulated schemes have good compatibility with efficient error correction code, which lead to higher reconciliation efficiency even at low signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Security analysis shows that the proposed protocol is secure against arbitrary collective attacks in the asymptotic limit with proper use of decoy states. And with the using of discrete modulation, the proposed CV-MDI-QKD protocol has simpler implementation and outperform previous protocols in terms of achievable maximal transmission distance, which precisely solve the bottleneck of the original Gaussian-modulated CV-MDI-QKD protocol.

description: Understanding the underlying mechanism of crystal nucleation during solidification is a fundamental aspect in the prediction and control of materials properties. Classical nucleation theory (CNT) assumes that homogeneous nucleation occurs via random fluctuations within the supercooled liquid, that the structure of the growing clusters resembles the most stable bulk phase, and that the nucleus size is the sole reaction coordinate (RC) of the process. Many materials are, however, known to exhibit multiple steps during crystallization, forming different polymorphs. As a consequence, more complex RCs are often required to capture all relevant information about the process. In this work, we employ transition path sampling together with a maximum likelihood analysis of candidate order parameters to identify suitable reaction coordinates for the nucleation mechanism during solidification in Ni. In contrast to CNT, the analysis of the reweighted path ensemble shows that a pre-structured liquid region that surrounds the crystal cluster is a relevant order parameter that enhances the RC and therefore plays a key role in the description of the growing nucleus and the interfacial free energy. We demonstrate that pre-structured liquid clusters that emerge within the liquid act as precursors of the crystallization in a non-classical two-step mechanism which predetermines the coordination of the polymorphs that are being selected.

description: We call for countries to develop comprehensive, place-sensitive economic diplomacy strategies that are built upon a careful empirical analysis of the differential consequences of distinct types of IB activities, and take the existence of GVCs as a starting point. Implementing such strategies will require countries to enhance their diagnostic tool kit, and – we acknowledge – it will require economic diplomats to have a more complex perspective on current global dynamics. We firmly believe that IB scholars can provide academic support in the process, particularly as the field deepens its interest on the policy dimension of IB research.
Crucial role of fragmented and isolated defects in persistent relaxation of deeply supercooled water

description: Properties of water have been well elucidated for temperatures above $\sim$230 K and yet mysteries remain in the deeply supercooled region. By performing extensive molecular dynamics simulations on this supercooled region, we find that structural and dynamical instabilities are hidden in the experimentally inaccessible region between 235 K and 150 K. We find a hitherto undiscovered fragmentation from 220 K to 190 K, which is the break-up of large clusters consisting of molecules with locally distorted tetrahedral structure into small pieces with one or two isolated defects. The fragmentation leads to considerable changes in the relaxation dynamics of water. We reveal a crucial role of specific three-coordinated defects in slow but persistent structural relaxation. The presence of relaxation due to these specific defects makes water glass transition temperature $T_{\rm g}$ (= 136 K) extremely low and explains why the $T_{\rm g}$ of water is $\sim$ 1/2 of the melting temperature Tm, much lower than the commonly obeyed 2/3 rule of $T_{\rm g}/T_{\rm m}$.
