description: Orthocladiinae genus and species C   Description: Head 0.3 mm long, deformed; ocelli absent; antenna 0.52 mm long, much longer than head, distinctly hairy, with 13 flagellomeres covered with long setae (shortest 0.008 mm long, longest 0.31 mm long), pedicel broad and short, rounded, 13 th flagellomere 0.24 mm long, without subapical setae; eye bare, with strong parallel­sided dorsomedial extension; mouthparts lacking functional mandibles; 5 palpomeres with setae; 3 postocular setae visible, frontal and inner and outer vertical setae not visible. Thorax 0.52 mm long, 0.24 mm wide, 0.44 mm high; postnotum bare with distinct median groove; 4 setae on surface of scutellum; no scutal tubercle; no acrostichals, dorsocentrals uniserial; scutum without median longitudinal groove; about 4 prealar and 1 supraalar setae; epimeron II and preepisternum bare. Wing macropterous, more than 0.7 mm long, hyaline, wing membrane covered with few macrotrichia; anal vein An 2 absent; radius with 2 branches R 1 and R 4+5, R 2+3 absent; only M 1+2 and M 3+4 present; cross­vein MCu absent; squama bare. Halter 0.15 mm long. Fore femur 0.38 mm long, tibia 0.46 mm long, tarsus 0.62 mm long; mid femur 0.36 mm long, tibia 0.36 mm long, tarsus 0.58 mm long; hind femur 0.24 mm long, tibia 0.4 mm long, tarsus 0.5 mm long; ta4 of all legs cylindrical, not cordiform; fore tibia with 1 long spur, mid and hind tibiae with 2 long spurs, hind tibial comb well developed. Abdomen 0.76 mm long; gonostylus simple, elongate, 0.04 mm long and 0.01 mm wide, without strong apical megasetae, shorter than gonocoxite; gonocoxite 0.07 mm long, 0.03 mm wide at base, with few long setae on outer surface; anal point narrow and elongate, 0.05 mm long and 0.03 mm wide at base, inferior volsella visible.
 Discussion: In the key to Holarctic orthocladiine genera of Cranston et al. (1989), this orthocladiine falls in couplet 35 because of the following characters: wing well developed; without thick clavus; scutum without median longitudinal groove; eye bare; wing covered with few macrotrichia; gonostylus simple; anal point distinct; and eye with strong dorsomedial extension. The apex of the wing cannot be seen to determine if the costa is produced. Thus, we cannot precisely determine the affinities of this fossil, but it is different from those already described from the Oise amber.

description: The detection of GW170817 in gravitational waves and gamma rays revealed that short gamma-ray bursts are associated with the merger of neutron-stars. Gamma rays are thought to result from the formation of collimated jets, but the details of this process continue to elude us. One fundamental observable is the emission profile of the jet as a function of viewing angle. We present two methods to measure the effective angular width, $θ_B$, of short gamma-ray burst (sGRB) jets using gravitational wave and gamma-ray data, assuming all sGRBs have the same angular dependence for their luminosities. The first is a counting experiment, where we combine the known detection thresholds of the LIGO/Virgo and Fermi Gamma Ray Burst Monitor detectors to infer parameters of systems that are detected in gravitational waves. This method requires minimal knowledge about each event, beyond whether or not they were detected in gamma-rays. The second method uses additional information from the gravitational-wave and electromagnetic data to estimate parameters of the source, and thereby improve constraints on jet properties. Applying our methods to GW170817, we find only weak constraints on the sGRB luminosity profile, with statistical uncertainty dominating differences between models. We also analyze simulated events from future observing runs, and find that with 5 and 100 BNS detections, the counting method constrains the relative uncertainty in $θ_B$ to within 51% and 12%, respectively. Incorporating gravitational-wave parameter estimation would further tighten these constraints to 43% and 9.6%. In the limit of many detections, incorporating parameter estimation achieves only marginal improvements; we conclude that the majority of the information about jet structure comes from the relative sensitivities of gravitational-wave and gamma-ray detectors as encoded in simple counting experiments.

description: Mesh is a powerful data structure for 3D shapes. Representation learning for 3D meshes is important in many computer vision and graphics applications. The recent success of convolutional neural networks (CNNs) for structured data (e.g., images) suggests the value of adapting insight from CNN for 3D shapes. However, 3D shape data are irregular since each node's neighbors are unordered. Various graph neural networks for 3D shapes have been developed with isotropic filters or predefined local coordinate systems to overcome the node inconsistency on graphs. However, isotropic filters or predefined local coordinate systems limit the representation power. In this paper, we propose a local structure-aware anisotropic convolutional operation (LSA-Conv) that learns adaptive weighting matrices for each node according to the local neighboring structure and performs shared anisotropic filters. In fact, the learnable weighting matrix is similar to the attention matrix in the random synthesizer -- a new Transformer model for natural language processing (NLP). Comprehensive experiments demonstrate that our model produces significant improvement in 3D shape reconstruction compared to state-of-the-art methods.

description: For an infinite system of nucleons interacting through a central spin-isospin schematic force we discuss how the Hartree-Fock theory at finite temperature T yields back, in the T=0 limit, the standard zero-temperature Feynman theory when there is no symmetry breaking. The attention is focused on the mechanism of cancellation of the higher order Hartree-Fock diagrams and on the dependence of this cancellation upon the range of the interaction. When a symmetry breaking takes place it turns out that more iterations are required to reach the self-consistent Hartree-Fock solution, because the cancellation of the Hartree-Fock diagrams of order higher than one no longer occurs. We explore in particular the case of an explicit symmetry breaking induced by a constant, uniform magnetic field B acting on a system of neutrons. Here we compare calculations performed using either the single-particle Matsubara propagator or the zero-temperature polarization propagator, discussing under which perturbative scheme they lead to identical results (if B is not too large). We finally address the issue of the spontaneous symmetry breaking for a system of neutrons using the technique of the anomalous propagator: in this framework we recover the Stoner equation and the critical values of the interaction corresponding to a transition to a ferromagnetic phase.

description: Stripped-envelope supernovae (SNe) are H-poor transients produced at the end of the life of massive stars that previously lost their H-rich envelope. Their progenitors are thought to be donor stars in mass-transferring binary systems, which were stripped of their H-rich envelopes some $10^6$yr before core collapse. A subset of the stripped-envelope SNe exhibit spectral and photometric features indicative of interaction between their ejecta and nearby circumstellar material (CSM). We examine whether mass transfer during, or shortly before, core collapse in massive binary systems can produce the CSM inferred from the observations of interacting H-poor SNe. We select 44 models from a comprehensive grid of detailed binary evolution models in which the mass donors are H-free and explode while transferring mass to a main-sequence companion. We find that in these models, mass transfer starts less than $\sim20$kyr before, and often continues until the core collapse of the donor star. Up to $0.8M_\odot$ of H-free material are removed from the donor star during this phase, which may produce a He-rich circumbinary material. We explore plausible assumptions for its spatial distribution at the time of explosion. When assuming that the CSM accumulates in a circumbinary disk, we find qualitative agreement with the supernova and CSM properties inferred from observed Type Ibn SNe, and to a lesser extent with constraints from Type Icn SNe. We find that our mass transferring stripped envelope SN progenitor models may produce up to $\sim$10% of all stripped envelope supernovae. The binary channel proposed in this work can qualitatively account for the observed key properties and rate of interacting H-poor SNe. Models for the evolution of the circumbinary material and the spectral evolution of exploding progenitors from this channel are needed to further test its significance.

description: Spatial persistent large deviations probability of surface growth processes governed by the Edwards-Wilkinson dynamics, $P_x(x,s)$, with $-1 \leq s \leq 1$ is mapped isomorphically onto the temporal persistent large deviations probability $P_t(t,s)$ associated with the stochastic Markovian random walk problem. We show using numerical simulations that the infinite family of spatial persistent large deviations exponents $θ_x(s)$ characterizing the power law decay of $P_x(x,s)$ agrees, as predicted on theoretical grounds by Majumdar and Bray [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 86}, 3700 (2001)] with the numerical measurements of $θ_t(s)$, the continuous family of exponents characterizing the long time power law behavior of $P_t(t,s)$. We also discuss the simulations of the spatial persistence probability corresponding to a discrete model in the Mullins-Herring universality class, where our discrete simulations do not agree well with the theoretical predictions perhaps because of the severe finite-size corrections which are known to strongly inhibit the manifestation of the asymptotic continuum behavior in discrete models involving large values of the dynamical exponent and the associated extremely slow convergence to the asymptotic regime.

description: Room-temperature ferromagnetism is observed in (110) oriented ZnO films containing 5 at % of Sc, Ti, V, Fe, Co or Ni, but not Cr, Mn or Cu ions. There are large moments, 1.9 and 0.5 muB/atom for Co- and Ti-substituted oxides, respectively. Sc-substituted ZnO shows also a moment of 0.3 muB/Sc. Magnetization is very anisotropic, with variations of up to a factor three depending on the orientation of the applied field relative to the R-cut sapphire substrates. Results are interpreted in terms of a spin-split donor impurity band model, which can account for ferromagnetism in insulating or conducting high-k oxides with concentrations of magnetic ions that lie far below the percolation threshold. The variation of the ferromagnetism with oxygen pressure used during film growth is evidence of a link between ferromagnetism and defect concentration.

description: Three-manifolds can be obtained through surgery of framed links in $S^3$. We study the meaning of surgery procedures in the context of topological strings. We obtain U(N) three-manifold invariants from U(N) framed link invariants in Chern-Simons theory on $S^3$. These three-manifold invariants are proportional to the trivial connection contribution to the Chern-Simons partition function on the respective three-manifolds. Using the topological string duality conjecture, we show that the large $N$ expansion of U(N) Chern-Simons free energies on three-manifolds, obtained from some class of framed links, have a closed string expansion. These expansions resemble the closed string $A$-model partition functions on Calabi-Yau manifolds with one Kahler parameter. We also determine Gopakumar-Vafa integer coefficients and Gromov-Witten rational coefficients corresponding to Chern-Simons free energies on some three-manifolds.

description: We present a skillful deep learning algorithm for supporting quality control of ocean temperature measurements, which we name SalaciaML according to Salacia the roman goddess of sea waters. Classical attempts to algorithmically support and partly automate the quality control of ocean data profiles are especially helpful for the gross errors in the data. Range filters, spike detection, and data distribution checks remove reliably the outliers and errors in the data, still wrong classifications occur. Various automated quality control procedures have been successfully implemented within the main international and EU marine data infrastructures (WOD, CMEMS, IQuOD, SDN) but their resulting data products are still containing data anomalies, bad data flagged as good and vice-versa. They also include visual inspection of suspicious measurements, which is a time consuming activity, especially if the number of suspicious data detected is large. A deep learning approach could highly improve our capabilities to quality assess big data collections and contemporary reducing the human effort. Our algorithm SalaciaML is meant to complement classical automated quality control procedures in supporting the time consuming visually inspection of data anomalies by quality control experts. As a first approach we applied the algorithm to a large dataset from the Mediterranean Sea. SalaciaML has been able to detect correctly more than 90% of all good and/or bad data in 11 out of 16 Mediterranean regions.

 Discussion: In the key to Holarctic orthocladiine genera of Cranston et al. (1989), this Orthocladiinae falls in couplet 91 because of the following characters: wing well developed; without thick clavus; scutum without median longitudinal groove; eye bare; wing without setae; epimeron II and preepisternum bare; no lateral spines on spurs of mid and hind legs; anal point without strong lamellate seta laterally and apicodorsally; squama bare; male antenna without strong straight subapical seta; gonostylus simple; and tarsomere 4 cylindrical, not cordiform. It is not possible to determine if the pars ventralis is present between the gonocoxite bases. Thus, we cannot determine the exact affinities of this fossil species, although it is different from those already described from the Oise amber.

description: The macroscopic quantizations of matter into macro-atoms and radiant and thermal energies into r- and k-energy packets initiated in Paper I is completed with the definition of transition probabilities governing energy flows to and from the thermal pool. The resulting Monte Carlo method is then applied to the problem of computing the hydrogen spectrum of a Type II supernova. This test problem is used to demonstrate the scheme's consistency as the number of energy packets N -> infinity, to investigate the accuracy of Monte Carlo estimators of radiative rates, and to illustrate the convergence characteristics of the geometry-independent, constrained Lambda-iteration method employed to obtain the NLTE stratifications of temperature and level populations. In addition, the method's potential, when combined with analytic ionization and excitation formulae, for obtaining useful approximate NLTE solutions is emphasized.

description: We study a class of nonequilibrium lattice models which describe local redistributions of a globally conserved energy. A particular subclass can be solved analytically, allowing to define a temperature T_{th} along the same lines as in the equilibrium microcanonical ensemble. The fluctuation-dissipation relation is explicitely found to be linear, but its slope differs from the inverse temperature T_{th}^{-1}. A numerical renormalization group procedure suggests that, at a coarse-grained level, all models behave similarly, leading to a two-parameter description of their macroscopic properties.

description: Racks and quandles are prominent set-theoretical solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation. We enumerate racks and quandles of orders $n\le 13$ up to isomorphism, improving upon the previously known results for $n\le 8$ and $n\le 9$, respectively. The enumeration is based on the classification of subgroups of small symmetric groups up to conjugation, on a representation of racks and quandles in symmetric groups due to Joyce and Blackburn, and on a number of theoretical and computational observations concerning the representation. We explicitly find representatives of isomorphism types of racks of order $\le 11$ and quandles of order $\le 12$. For the remaining orders we merely count the isomorphism types, relying in part on the enumeration of $2$-reductive racks and $2$-reductive quandles due to Jedlička, Pilitowska, Stanovský and Zamojska-Dzienio.

description: It is well known, although sometimes ignored, that not only the d=5 but also d=6 proton decay depends on fermion mixings. In general we study carefully the dependence of d=6 decay on fermion mixings using the effective operator approach. We find that without specifying a theory it is impossible to make clear predictions. Even in a given model, it is often not possible to determine all the physical parameters. We point out that it is possible to make a clear test of any grand unified theory with symmetric Yukawa couplings. We discuss in some detail realistic theories based on SU(5) and SO(10) gauge symmetry.

description: Most of the massive star-forming galaxies are found to have `inside-out' stellar mass growth modes, which means the inner parts of the galaxies mainly consist of the older stellar population, while the star forming in the outskirt of the galaxy is still ongoing. The high-resolution HST images from Hubble Deep UV Legacy Survey (HDUV) and Cosmic Assembly Near-infrared Deep Extragalactic Legacy Survey (CANDELS) projects with the unprecedented depth in both F275W and F160W bands are the perfect data sets to study the forming and formed stellar distribution directly. We selected the low redshift ($0.05 < z_{\rm spec} < 0.3$) galaxy sample from the GOODS-North field where the HST F275W and F160W images are available. Then we measured the half light radius in F275W and F160W bands, which are the indicators of the star formation and stellar mass. By comparing the F275W and F160W half light radius, we find the massive galaxies are mainly follow the `inside-out' growth which is consistent with the previous results. Moreover, the HST F275W and F160W images reveal that some of the low-mass galaxies ($<10^8M_\odot$) have the `outside-in' growth mode: their images show a compact UV morphology, implying an ongoing star formation in the galaxy centre, the stars in the outskirts of the galaxies are already formed. The two modes transit smoothly at stellar mass range about $10^{8-9}M_\odot$ with a large scatter. We also try to identify the possible neighbour massive galaxies from the SDSS data, which represent the massive galaxy sample. We find that all of the spec-z selected galaxies have no massive galaxy nearby. Thus the `outside-in' mode we find in the low-mass galaxies are not likely originated from the environment.

description: Novel Palladium nanoparticles supported nano Magnesium ferrite catalyst (Pd/MgFe2O4) was synthesized by one-step ultrasound assisted coprecipitation. In-situ formed by-products assisted salt cage calcination approach was employed to control the particle size by minimizing the risk of nanoparticle aggregation during calcination. Palladium nanoparticles were grafted on the surface of nanocrystalline MgFe2O4 without using any reducing agents, capping agents and surface modifiers. The catalyst preparation method was having minimum process operations and can be used for synthesis of various potential nanocatalytic systems. The catalyst was extensively characterized by using various techniques SEM-EDS, TEM, FT-IR, XPS, XRD, VSM, BET, and ICP-AES. Pd/MgFe2O4 was magnetically separable and shown its potential utility for ligand less Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction using green solvent system Water and Ethanol. The nanocatalyst shows consistent activity and excellent reusability in the synthesis of Biaryls with excellent yields. In addition, the prepared catalytic nanoparticles were successfully applied in the synthesis of 5-(4-phenoxyphenyl)-7H-pyrrolo[2,3-d]pyrimidin-4-ylamine an intermediate for preparing the marketed anticancer drug PCI-32765 under the name IMBRUVICA® (Ibrutinib-BTK inhibitor).

description: It is shown that the translational degrees of freedom of a large variety of molecules, from light diatomic to heavy organic ones, can be cooled sympathetically and brought to rest (crystallized) in a linear Paul trap. The method relies on endowing the molecules with an appropriate positive charge, storage in a linear radiofrequency trap, and sympathetic cooling. Two well--known atomic coolant species, ${}^9{\hbox{Be}}^+$ and ${}^{137}{\hbox{Ba}}^+$, are sufficient for cooling the molecular mass range from 2 to 20,000 amu. The large molecular charge required for simultaneous trapping of heavy molecules and of the coolant ions can easily be produced using electrospray ionization. Crystallized molecular ions offer vast opportunities for novel studies.

description: We investigate the possibility of indirectly constraining the $B^{+}\to K^{+}τ^+τ^-$ decay rate using precise data on the $B^{+}\to K^{+}μ^+μ^-$ dimuon spectrum. To this end, we estimate the distortion of the spectrum induced by the $B^{+}\to K^{+}τ^+τ^-\to K^{+} μ^+μ^-$ re-scattering process, and propose a method to simultaneously constrain this (non-standard) contribution and the long-distance effects associated to hadronic intermediate states. The latter are constrained using the analytic properties of the amplitude combined with data and perturbative calculations. Finally, we estimate the sensitivity expected at the LHCb experiment with present and future datasets. We find that constraints on the branching fraction of $O(10^{-3})$, competitive with current direct bounds, can be achieved with the current dataset, while bounds of $O(10^{-4})$ could be obtained with the LHCb upgrade-II luminosity.

description: Ion beam therapy is one of the most progressive methods in cancer treatment. Studies of the water radiolysis process show that the most long-living species that occur in the medium of a biological cell under the action of ionizing irradiation are hydrogen peroxide (H$_2$O$_2$) molecules. But the role of H$_2$O$_2$ molecules in the DNA deactivation of cancer cells in ion beam therapy has not been determined yet. In the present paper, the competitive interaction of hydrogen peroxide and water molecules with atomic groups of non-specific DNA recognition sites (phosphate groups PO$_4$) is investigated. The interaction energies and optimized spatial configurations of the considered molecular complexes are calculated with the help of molecular mechanics method and quantum chemistry approach. The results show that the H$_2$O$_2$ molecule can form a complex with the PO$_4$ group (with and without a sodium counterion) that is more energetically stable than the same complex with the water molecule. Formation of such complexes can block genetic information transfer processes in cancer cells and can be an important factor during ion beam therapy treatment.
The Star Formation Histories of Four Fields Spanning the Minor Axis of NGC 6822

description: The star formation histories of four fields within the Local Group dwarf irregular galaxy NGC 6822 are presented. Each of the fields was imaged by the WFPC2 aboard the {\it Hubble Space Telescope} and were used to obtain $VI$ color-magnitude diagrams for each field reaching $V\simeq26$. The magnitude of the tip of the red giant branch and the red clump were used to determine distances to NGC 6822 that are consistent with previous ground-based measurements. The distance, extinction and star formation history were also determined by fitting the entire color-magnitude diagram in each field. The distances from these fits are consistent with the other determinations within the estimated errors once the systematic effects of uncertainties in the age-metallicity relation are taken into account. The extinction varies among the four fields from approximately the foreground Galactic value to $\approx 0.4$ mag higher in $V$ and roughly correlates with the $60\micron$ surface brightness. The star formation histories in the four fields are similar for ages $\gtrsim 1$ Gyr and are relatively constant or somewhat increasing with time. These old star formation rates are comparable to that expected from the typical gas surface densities at these galactocentric radii and suggest that no large scale redistribution of gas or stars is required to account for the inferred star formation rates. Three of the fields show a drop of a factor of $\sim 2-4$ in the star formation rate about 600 Myr ago while the remaining field centered on the bar shows an increase.

Stress effect on magnetoimpedance (MI) in amorphous wires at GHz frequencies and application to stress-tunable microwave composite materials

description: The effect of tensile stress on magnetoimpedance (MI) in CoMnSiB amorphous wires at microwave frequencies (0.5-3 GHz) is investigated both experimentally and theoretically. In the presence of the dc bias magnetic field of the order of the anisotropy field, the impedance shows very large and sensitive change when the wire is subjected to a tensile stress: 100% and 60% per 180 MPa for frequencies 500 MHz and 2.5 GHz, respectively. It is demonstrated that this behavior owes mainly to the directional change in the equilibrium magnetization caused by the applied stress and field, which agrees well with the theoretical results for the surface impedance. This stress effect on MI is proposed to use for creating microwave stress-tunable composite materials containing short magnetic wires. The analysis of the dielectric response from such materials shows that depending on the stress level in the material, the dispersion of the effective permittivity can be of a resonant or relaxation type with a considerable change in its values (up to 100% at 600 MPa). This media can be used for structural stress monitoring by microwave contrast imaging.

description: Let $V$ be a vector space over a field $\mathbb F$ with scalar product given by a nondegenerate sesquilinear form whose matrix is diagonal in some basis. If $\mathbb F=\mathbb C$, then we give canonical matrices of isometric and selfadjoint operators on $V$ using known classifications of isometric and selfadjoint operators on a complex vector space with nondegenerate Hermitian form. If $\mathbb F$ is a field of characteristic different from $2$, then we give canonical matrices of isometric, selfadjoint, and skewadjoint operators on $V$ up to classification of symmetric and Hermitian forms over finite extensions of $\mathbb F$.

description: Based on macroscopic QED in linear, causal media, we present a consistent theory for the Casimir-Polder force acting on an atom positioned near dispersing and absorbing magnetodielectric bodies. The perturbative result for the van-der-Waals energy is shown to exhibit interesting new features in the presence of magnetodielectric bodies. To go beyond perturbation theory, we start with the center-of-mass equation of motion and derive a dynamical expression for the Casimir-Polder force acting on an atom prepared in an arbitrary electronic state. For a non-driven atom in the weak coupling regime, the force as a function of time is shown to be a superposition of force components that are related to the electronic density matrix elements at chosen time. These force components depend on the position-dependent polarizability of the atom that correctly accounts for the body-induced level shifts and broadenings.
