description: We study the dynamical behaviour of the proton transfer in the hydrogen bonds in the base-pairs of the double helices of the DNA type. Under the assumption that the elastic and the tunnelling degrees of freedom may be coupled, we derive a non-linear and non-local Schrodinger equation (SNLNL) that describes the concerted motion of the proton tunnelling. Rough estimates of the solutions to the SNLNL show an intimate interplay between the concerted tunnelling of protons and the symmetry of double helix.

description: In this paper, we deal with two families of third-order Jacobsthal sequences. The first family consists of generalizations of the Jacobsthal sequence. We show that the Gelin-Cesàro identity is satisfied. Also, we define a family of generalized third-order Jacobsthal sequences $\{\mathbb{J}_{n}^{(3)}\}_{n\geq 0}$ by the recurrence relation $$\mathbb{J}_{n+3}^{(3)}=\mathbb{J}_{n+2}^{(3)}+\mathbb{J}_{n+1}^{(3)}+2\mathbb{J}_{n}^{(3)},\ n\geq0,$$ with initials conditions $\mathbb{J}_{0}^{(3)}=a$, $\mathbb{J}_{1}^{(3)}=b$ and $\mathbb{J}_{2}^{(3)}=c$, where $a$, $b$ and $c$ are non-zero real numbers. Many sequences in the literature are special cases of this sequence. We find the generating function and Binet's formula of the sequence. Then we show that the Cassini and Gelin-Cesàro identities are satisfied by the indices of this generalized sequence.

description: We construct the exact ground state for an antiferromagnetic spin-3/2 model on the two-leg ladder as an optimum ground state. The ground state contains a discrete parameter "sigma"=+/-1 and a continuous parameter "a" which controls z-axis anisotropy. For most values of "a" the global ground state is unique. It has vanishing sublattice magnetization and exponentially decaying correlation functions. By using the transfer matrix technique, we calculate exactly the fluctuations of the magnetization, the nearest-neighbour correlation, and the longitudinal correlation length as functions of the parameters.

description: This study aimed at deriving occupational thresholds of toxicological concern for inhalation exposure to systemically-acting organic chemicals using predicted internal doses. The latter were also used to evaluate the quantitative relationship between occupational exposure limit and internal dose. Three internal dose measures were identified for investigation: (i) the daily area under the venous blood concentration vs. time curve, (ii) the daily rate of the amount of parent chemical metabolized, and (iii) the maximum venous blood concentration at the end of an 8-hr work shift. A dataset of 276 organic chemicals with 8-hr threshold limit values-time-weighted average was compiled along with their molecular structure and Cramer classes (Class I: low toxicity, Class II: intermediate toxicity, Class III: suggestive of significant toxicity). Using a human physiologically-based pharmacokinetic model, the three identified dose metrics were predicted for an 8-hr occupational inhalation exposure to the threshold limit value for each chemical. Distributional analyses of the predicted dose metrics were performed to identify the percentile values corresponding to the occupational thresholds of toxicological concern. Also, simple linear regression analyses were performed to evaluate the relationship between the 8-hr threshold limit value and each of the predicted dose metrics, respectively. No threshold of toxicological concern could be derived for class II due to few chemicals. Based on the daily rate of the amount of parent chemical metabolized, the proposed internal dose-based occupational thresholds of toxicological concern were 5.61 × 10−2 and 9 × 10−4 mmol/d at the 10th percentile level for classes I and III, respectively, while they were 4.55 × 10−1 and 8.5 × 10−3 mmol/d at the 25th percentile level. Even though high and significant correlations were observed between the 8-hr threshold limit values and the predicted dose metrics, the one with the rate of the amount of chemical metabolized was remarkable regardless of the Cramer class (r2 = 0.81; n = 276). The proposed internal dose-based occupational thresholds of toxicological concern are potentially useful for screening-level assessments as well as prioritization within an integrated occupational risk assessment framework.

description: Purpose: This study compares two electromagnetic articulographs manufactured by Northern Digital, Inc.: the NDI Wave System (from 2008) and the NDI Vox-EMA System (from 2020).Method: Four experiments were completed: (a) comparison of statically positioned sensors, (b) tracking dynamic movements of sensors manipulated using a motor-driven LEGO apparatus, (c) tracking small and large movements of sensors mounted in a rigid bar manipulated by hand, and (d) tracking movements of sensors rotated on a circular disc. We assessed spatial variability for statically positioned sensors, variability in the transduced Euclidean distances between sensor pairs, and missing data rates. For sensors tracking circular movements, we compared the fit between fitted ideal circles and actual trajectories.Results: The average sensor pair tracking error (i.e., the standard deviation of the Euclidean distances) was 1.37 mm for the WAVE and 0.12 mm for the VOX during automated trials at the fastest speed, and 0.35 mm for the WAVE and 0.14 mm for the VOX during the tracking of large manual movements. The average standard deviation of the fitted circle radii charted by manual circular disc movements was 0.72 mm for the WAVE sensors and 0.14 mm for the VOX sensors. There was no significant difference between the WAVE and the VOX in the number of missing frames.Conclusions: In general, the VOX system significantly outperformed the WAVE on measures of both static precision and dynamic accuracy (automated and manual). For both systems, positional precision and spatial variability were influenced by the sensors’ position relative to the field generator unit (worse when further away).

description: Le présent article analyse l’efficacité des investissements publics dans les PED à l’aide des modèles d’enveloppement des données (DEA) et d’analyse de frontière stochastique (SFA) sur un panel de 75 pays en développement sur la période de 2000 à 2021. Les résultats montrent que, dans l’ensemble, les pays de l’échantillon affichent une efficacité totale de près de 83,56%, au sens de Debreu-Farrell. En outre, les pays à faible revenu, ont le plus bas niveau d’efficacité globale et sectorielle, alors que les pays à revenu élevé enregistrent les scores d’efficacité les plus élevés aux niveaux global et sectoriel, prouvant ainsi leur supériorité. Par ailleurs, les résultats de nos travaux, montrent que la bonne gouvernance, fondée sur le renforcement du contrôle de la corruption et le respect de l’Etat de droit, reste un facteur déterminant pour accroître l’efficacité de l’investissement public dans les PED. Cet article préconise que l’investissement public soit prioritairement orienté vers les secteurs fondamentaux de développement tels que l’éducation et la santé. De plus, il recommande l’amélioration de la gouvernance pour garantir l’efficacité des investissements publics dans les PED.

description: There is great concern regarding the adverse health implications of engineered nanoparticles. However, there are many circumstances where the production of incidental nanoparticles, i.e., nanoparticles unintentionally generated as a side product of some anthropogenic process, is of even greater concern. In this study, metal-based incidental nanoparticles were measured in two occupational settings: a machining center and a foundry. On-site characterization of substrate-deposited incidental nanoparticles using a field-portable X-ray fluorescence provided some insights into the chemical characteristics of these metal-containing particles. The same substrates were then used to carry out further off-site analysis including single-particle analysis using scanning electron microscopy and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. Between the two sites, there were similarities in the size and composition of the incidental nanoparticles as well as in the agglomeration and coagulation behavior of nanoparticles. In particular, incidental nanoparticles were identified in two forms: submicrometer fractal-like agglomerates from activities such as welding and supermicrometer particles with incidental nanoparticles coagulated to their surface, herein referenced as nanoparticle collectors. These agglomerates will affect deposition and transport inside the respiratory system of the respirable incidental nanoparticles and the corresponding health implications. The studies of incidental nanoparticles generated in occupational settings lay the groundwork on which occupational health and safety protocols should be built.

description: The problem of an electromagnetic wave scattering by a slab with two rough boundaries is solved by a small-perturbation method under the Rayleigh hypothesis. In order to obtain a perturbative development, we use a systematic procedure which involves integral equations called the reduced Rayleigh equations. Then we will show for a dielectric slab deposited on a silver film that the backscattering enhancement can be produced by guided waves which interact with the two rough surfaces.

description: Pro-social punishment and exclusion are common means to elevate the level of cooperation among unrelated individuals. Indeed, it is worth pointing out that the combined use of these two strategies is quite common across human societies. However, it is still not known how a combined strategy where punishment and exclusion are switched can promote cooperation from the theoretical perspective. In this paper, we thus propose two different switching strategies, namely peer switching that is based on peer punishment and peer exclusion, and pool switching that is based on pool punishment and pool exclusion. Individuals adopting the switching strategy will punish defectors when their numbers are below a threshold and exclude them otherwise. We study how the two switching strategies influence the evolutionary dynamics in the public goods game. We show that an intermediate value of the threshold leads to a stable coexistence of cooperators, defectors and players adopting the switching strategy in a well-mixed population, and this regardless of whether the pool-based or the peer-based switching strategy is introduced. Moreover, we show that the pure exclusion strategy alone is able to evoke a limit cycle attractor in the evolutionary dynamics, such that cooperation can coexist with other strategies.

description: Purpose: The COVID-19 pandemic has necessitated a quick shift to virtual speech-language services; however, only a small percentage of speech-language pathologists (SLPs) had previously engaged in telepractice. The purpose of this clinical tutorial is (a) to describe how the Early Language and Literacy Acquisition in Children with Hearing Loss study, a longitudinal study involving speech-language assessment with children with and without hearing loss, transitioned from in-person to virtual assessment and (b) to provide tips for optimizing virtual assessment procedures.Method: We provide an overview of our decision making during the transition to virtual assessment. Additionally, we report on a pilot study that calculated test–retest reliability from in-person to virtual assessment for a subset of our preschool-age participants.Results: Our pilot study revealed that most speech-language measures had high or adequate test–retest reliability when administered in a virtual environment. When low reliability occurred, generally the measures were timed.Conclusions: Speech-language assessment can be conducted successfully in a virtual environment for preschool children with hearing loss. We provide suggestions for clinicians to consider when preparing for virtual assessment sessions.

description: We report on detailed experimental studies of a high-quality heterojunction insulated-gate field-effect transistor (HIGFET) to probe the particle-hole symmetry (PHS) of the FQHE states about half-filling in the lowest Landau level. The HIGFET was specially designed to vary the density of a two-dimensional electronic system under constant magnetic fields. We find in our constant magnetic field, variable density measurements that the sequence of FQHE states at filling factors nu = 1/3, 2/5, 3/7 ... and its particle-hole conjugate states at filling factors 1 - nu = 2/3, 3/5, 4/7 ... have a very similar energy gap. Moreover, a reflection symmetry can be established in the magnetoconductivities between the nu and 1 - nu states about half-filling. Our results demonstrate that the FQHE states in the lowest Landau level are manifestly particle-hole symmetric.

description: Background: Food security and diet quality are critical yet interconnected challenges in urban African settings, where rapid urbanization drives a nutrition transition from traditional diets to processed, nutrient-poor foods. This study compares North African (Morocco, Tunisia) and East African (Uganda, Kenya, Tanzania) urban populations, exploring regional and country disparities and factors influencing diet quality and food security.

Methods: We collected data on 5,924 urban consumers residing in twelve urban locations across five African countries: Morocco, Tunisia, Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda. Diet questionnaires and diet quality indicators were obtained using the Global Diet Quality Project tools. Other variables included standardized food security variables, sociodemographic information, and preferences for food choices. We carried out descriptive statistics and regression models to test the factors associated with diverse diet quality indicators.

Results: The study highlights significant regional and country differences in diet quality, food security, and the drivers of food choice across North and East African countries. North Africa, particularly Tunisia, shows higher food security and greater dietary diversity, while East Africa demonstrates stronger adherence to global dietary recommendations, especially in reducing non-communicable disease risks.

Conclusions: Addressing diet quality and food security in North and East Africa requires strategies tailored to regional disparities and consumers’ characteristics. Policies should leverage cultural motivations to promote balanced diets and diversify food sources while  addressing the increasing consumption of unhealthy foods, thereby mitigating their negative impacts. Tackling the urban nutrition transition will be crucial for improving public health outcomes across both North and East Africa.

$b-τ$ Yukawa Unification in SUSY SU(5) with Mirage Mediation: LHC and Dark Matter Implications

description: We consider a class of $b-τ$ Yukawa unified Supersymmetric (SUSY) $SU(5)$ GUTs, in which the asymptotic gaugino $M_{1,2,3}$ masses are generated through a combination of gravity and mirage mediated supersymmetry breaking. Due to the contributions from mirage mediation, $M_{3}$ is always lighter than M_{1} and M_{2}, and consequently for the range of asymptotic masses considered, the gluino mass at low scale is bounded from above at about 4 TeV. We realize two different regions, one in which the MSSM $μ-$term is less than about 3 TeV. This region yields a stop mass up to 5 TeV, and the stop mass is nearly degenerate with the LSP neutralino for mass around 0.8 to 1.7 TeV. A stau mass can be realized up to about 5 TeV, and the stau mass is approximately degenerate with the LSP neutralino for mass around 2 to 3 TeV. In addition, an A-funnel solution $m_{A}$ with mass $\sim 1.4-1.8$ TeV is realized. A second region, on the other hand, arises for gluino around 1.1 TeV. The $μ-$term is rather large than 20 TeV, and the LSP neutralino is a bino-wino mixture. The gluino mass ($\sim 0.8-1.2$ TeV) is nearly degenerate with the LSP neutralino mass and hence, the gluino-neutralino coannihilation processes play a role in reducing the relic abundance of LSP neutralino down to ranges allowed by the current WMAP measurements. The two regions above can be distinguished through the direct detection experiments. The first region with relatively low $μ$ values yields Higgsino-like DM, whose scattering on the nucleus typically has a large cross-section. We find that such solutions are still allowed by the current results from the LUX experiment, and they will be severely tested by the LUX-Zeplin experiment. The second region contains bino-wino DM whose scattering cross-section is relatively low. These solutions are harder to rule out in the foreseeable future.

description: We show using bosonization techniques, that strong forward scattering interactions between one dimensional spinless Luttinger liquids (LL) can stabilize a phase where charge-density wave, superconducting and transverse single particle hopping perturbations are irrelevant. This new phase retains its LL like properties in the directions of the chains, but with relations between exponents modified by the transverse interactions, whereas, it is a perfect insulator in the transverse direction. The mechanism that stabilizes this phase are strong transverse charge density wave fluctuations at incommensurate wavevector, which frustrates crystal formation by preventing lock-in of the in-chain density waves.

description: We report intermolecular potential-energy calculations for solid C_${70}$ and determine the optimum static orientations of the molecules at low temperature; we find them to be consistent with the monoclinic structural model proposed by us in an earlier report [Solid State Commun. {\bf 105), 247 (1998)]. This model indicates that the C_5 axis of the molecule is tilted by an angle $\approx$18^o from the monoclinic b axis in contrast with the molecular orientation proposed by Verheijen {\it et al.} [J. Chem. Phys. {\bf 166}, 287 (1992)] where the C_5 axis is parallel to the monoclinic b axis. In this calculation we have incorporated the effective bond charge Coulomb potential together with the Lennard-Jones potential between the molecule at the origin of the monoclinic unit cell and its six nearest neighbours, three above and three below. The minimum energy configuration for the molecular orientations turns out to be at $θ$=18^o, $ϕ$=8^o, and $ψ$=5^o, where $θ$, $ϕ$, and $ψ$ define the molecular orientations.

description: Rashba precession of spins moving along a one-dimensional quantum channel is calculated, accounting for Coulomb interactions. The Tomonaga--Luttinger model is formulated in the presence of spin-orbit scattering and solved by Bosonization. Increasing interaction strength at decreasing carrier density is found to {\sl enhance} spin precession and the nominal Rashba parameter due to the decreasing spin velocity compared with the Fermi velocity. This result can elucidate the observed pronounced changes of the spin splitting on applied gate voltages which are estimated to influence the interface electric field in heterostructures only little.

description: Direct visualization of the glomerular filter, proximal and distal tubule segments, and the renal vasculature in the living, intact kidney in zebrafish, mouse, and rat models with high temporal and spatial resolution provided new insights into the function of the normal and diseased kidney. New technical developments in fluorescence excitation and detection, in combination with transgenic animal models for cell function and fate mapping, and serial imaging of the same glomerulus in the same animal over several days further advanced the field of nephrology research, and the understanding of disease mechanisms.Intravital multiphoton imaging has solved many critical technical barriers in kidney research and allowed the dynamic portrayal of the structure and function of various renal cell types in vivo. It has become a widely used research technique, with significant past achievements, and tremendous potential for future development and applications for the study and better understanding of kidney diseases.

description: Density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) calculations on large systems (up to 3096 spins) indicate that the ground state of the Heisenberg model on a 3-chain Kagome strip is spontaneously dimerized. This system has degenerate ground states and a gap to triplet and singlet excitations. These results are in direct contradiction with recent results of Azaria et al (Phys. Rev. Lett. 81, 1694 (1998)) and suggest a need for a reexamination of the underlying field theory.

description: Accurate preoperative assessment of ampullary tumors (ATs) is critical for determining the appropriate treatment. The reported diagnostic accuracy of endoscopic ultrasound (EUS) and intraductal ultrasonography (IDUS) for detecting tumor depth (T-staging) and regional lymph node status (N-staging) varies across studies. An electronic search of the MEDLINE and Embase databases was conducted to identify studies that assessed the diagnostic accuracy of EUS and IDUS for ATs. Sensitivities and specificities of eligible studies were summarized using either fixed effects or random-effects model. Twenty-one studies were included in the final analysis. The pooled sensitivity and specificity of EUS were 0.89 and 0.87 for T1, 0.76 and 0.91 for T2, 0.81 and 0.94 for T3 and 0.72 and 0.98 for T4, respectively. For IDUS, estimates from five studies were 0.90 and 0.88 for T1, 0.73 and 0.91 for T2 and 0.79 and 0.97 for T3, respectively. For N-staging, 16 studies using EUS were included with sensitivity and specificity of 0.61 and 0.77, respectively. Moreover, estimates of IDUS for N-staging were 0.61 and 0.92, respectively. Our results imply that EUS and IDUS have good diagnostic accuracy for T-staging of ATs. However, the accuracy of EUS or IDUS is less satisfactory for N-staging. More well-designed prospective studies are warranted to confirm our findings.

description: A large-n approximation to the S=1 antiferromagnetic chain, using the symmetric tensor representation and its conjugate, is developed to order 1/n in order to calculate the magnon wave-function and to study the effect of modifying the exchange coupling from J to J' on a single link. It is shown that a magnon boundstate exists below the Haldane gap for arbitrarily small negative J'-J but only above a certain critical value of J'-J for positive values. In the former case the binding energy vanishes as the square of (J-J').

description: We propose a new scenario for generating a relic density of non-relativistic dark matter in the context of heterotic string theory. Contrary to standard thermal freeze-out scenarios, dark-matter particles are abundantly produced while still relativistic, and then decouple from the thermal bath due to the sudden increase of their mass above the universe temperature. This mass variation is sourced by the condensation of an order-parameter modulus, which is triggered when the temperature T(t) drops below the supersymmetry breaking scale M(t), which are both time-dependent. A cosmological attractor mechanism forces this phase transition to take place, in an explicit class of heterotic string models with spontaneously broken supersymmetry, and at finite temperature.

description: The source-subtracted cosmic infrared background (CIB) fluctuations uncovered in deep Spitzer data cannot be explained by known galaxy populations and appear strongly coherent with unresolved cosmic X-ray background (CXB). This suggests that the source-subtracted CIB contains emissions from significantly abundant accreting black holes (BHs). We show that theoretically such populations would have the angular power spectrum which is largely independent of the epochs occupied by these sources, provided they are at z>~ 4, offering an important test of the origin of the new populations. Using the current measurements we reconstruct the underlying soft X-ray CXB from the new sources and show that its fluctuations, while consistent with a high-z origin, have an amplitude that cannot be reached in direct measurements with the foreseeable X-ray space missions. This necessitates application of the methods developed by the authors to future IR and X-ray datasets, which must cover large areas of the sky in order to measure the signal with high precision. The LIBRAE project within ESA's Euclid mission will probe source-subtracted CIB over ~1/2 the sky at three near-IR bands, and its cross-power with unresolved CXB can be measured then from the concurrent eROSITA mission covering the same areas of the sky. We discuss the required methodology for this measurement and evaluate its projected S/N to show the unique potential of this experimental configuration to accurately probe the CXB from the new BH sources and help identify their epochs.

description: This paper investigates whether the density of local labour markets in Germany impacts on the wage of new employment relationships and whether corresponding urbanization economies differ significantly across distinct types of transitions to employment. The results suggest rather small static urbanization benefits. Doubling employment density increases the wage of new employment relationships by 1.0–2.6%. Moreover, benefits seem to accrue only to persons experiencing job-to-job transitions and the short-term unemployed, but not to the long-term unemployed. It is supposed these differences point to matching advantages in large urban labour markets from which only some job seekers benefit.
Theory of the anomalous Hall effect from the Kubo formula and the Dirac equation

description: A model to treat the anomalous Hall effect is developed. Based on the Kubo formalism and on the Dirac equation, this model allows the simultaneous calculation of the skew-scattering and side-jump contributions to the anomalous Hall conductivity. The continuity and the consistency with the weak-relativistic limit described by the Pauli Hamiltonian is shown. For both approaches, Dirac and Pauli, the Feynman diagrams, which lead to the skew-scattering and the side-jump contributions, are underlined. In order to illustrate this method, we apply it to a particular case: a ferromagnetic bulk compound in the limit of weak-scattering and free-electrons approximation. Explicit expressions for the anomalous Hall conductivity for both skew-scattering and side-jump mechanisms are obtained. Within this model, the recently predicted ''spin Hall effect'' appears naturally.

description: MIRNA (MIR) gene origin and early evolutionary processes, such as hairpin precursor sequence origination, promoter activity acquirement and the sequence of these two processes, are fundamental and fascinating subjects. Three models, including inverted gene duplication, spontaneous evolution and transposon transposition, have been proposed for de novo origination of hairpin precursor sequence. However, these models still open to discussion. In addition, de novo origination of MIR gene promoters has not been well investigated. Here, I systematically investigated the origin of evolutionarily young polyphenol oxidase gene (PPO)-targeting MIRs, including MIR1444, MIR058 and MIR12112, and a genomic region termed AasPPO-as-hp, which contained a hairpin-forming sequence. I found that MIR058 precursors and the hairpin-forming sequence of AasPPO-as-hp originated in an ancient PPO gene through forming short inverted repeats. Palindromic-like sequences and imperfect inverted repeats in the ancient PPO gene contributed to initiate the generation of short inverted repeats probably by causing errors during DNA duplication. Analysis of MIR058 and AasPPO-as-hp promoters showed that they originated in the 3ʹ-flanking region of the ancient PPO gene. Promoter activities were gained by insertion of a CAAT-box and multiple-copper-response element (CuRE)-containing miniature inverted-repeat transposable element (MITE) in the upstream of AT-rich TATA-box-like sequence. Gain of promoter activities occurred before hairpin-forming sequence origination. Sequence comparison of MIR1444, MIR058 and MIR12112 promoters showed frequent birth and death of CuREs, indicating copper could be vital for the origination and evolution of PPO-targeting MIRs. Based on the evidence obtained, a novel model for plant MIR origination and evolution is proposed.
$K_L \to π^0 ν\bar ν$ Beyond the Standard Model

description: We analyze the decay $K_L \to π^0 ν\bar ν$ in a model independent way. If lepton flavor is conserved the final state is (to a good approximation) purely CP even. In that case this decay mode goes mainly through CP violating interference between mixing and decay. Consequently, a theoretically clean relation between the measured rate and electroweak parameters holds in any given model. Specifically, $Γ(K_L \to π^0 ν\bar ν)/Γ(K^+ \to π^+ ν\bar ν)= \sin^2θ$ (up to known isospin corrections), where $θ$ is the relative CP violating phase between the $K-\bar K$ mixing amplitude and the $s\to dν\barν$ decay amplitude. The experimental bound on $BR(K^+ \to π^+ ν\bar ν)$ provides a model independent upper bound: $BR(K_L \to π^0 ν\bar ν) < 1.1 \times 10^{-8}$. In models with lepton flavor violation, the final state is not necessarily a CP eigenstate. Then CP conserving contributions can dominate the decay rate.
