description: This paper continues the series of the Fornax Deep Survey (FDS). Following the previous studies dedicated to extended Fornax cluster members, we present the catalogs of compact stellar systems in the Fornax cluster as well as extended background sources and point-like sources. We derive ugri photometry of ~1.7 million sources over the $\sim$21 sq. degree area of FDS centered on NGC1399. For a wider area, of $\sim$27 sq. degs extending in the direction of NGC1316, we provide gri data for ~3.1 million sources. To improve the morphological characterization of sources we generate multi-band image stacks by coadding the best seeing gri-band single exposures with a cut at FWHM<=0.9 arcsec. We use the multi-band stacks as detection frames. The identification of compact sources is obtained from a combination of photometric and morphometric selection criteria taking as reference the properties of sources with well-defined classification from the literature. We present a preliminary analysis of globular cluster (GC) distributions in the Fornax area. The study confirms and extends further previous results. We observe the inter-galactic population of GCs, a population of mainly blue GCs centered on NGC1399, extends over $\sim$0.9Mpc, with an ellipticity $\sim$0.65. Several sub-structures extend over $\sim$0.5Mpc along various directions. Two of these structures do not cross any bright galaxy; one of them appears to be connected to NGC1404, a bright galaxy close to the cluster core and particularly poor of GCs. Using the gri catalogs we analyze the GC distribution over the extended FDS area, and do not find any obvious GC sub-structure bridging the two brightest cluster galaxies, NGC1316 and NGC1399. Although NGC1316 is twice brighter of NGC1399 in optical bands we estimate a factor of 3-4 richer GC population around NGC1399 compared to NGC1316, out to galactocentric distances of 40 arcmin

title: Extracellular Signalling and Stem Cell Self-Renewal
Creators: name: Wamaitha, Sissy E.
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2017

description: In preimplantation mouse embryos, signalling and gene regulatory networks cooperate to determine lineage segregation, and modulating signalling in vitro allows for stem cell populations to be established from these lineages. Fibroblast growth factor (FGF) signalling triggers the differentiation of primitive endoderm (PrE) cells fated to contribute to the yolk sac, while cells unreceptive to FGF form the epiblast (Epi) that subsequently contributes to the embryo proper. In vitro, FGF signalling is required for preimplantation Epi-derived mouse ES cells to exit self-renewal. Conversely, in human ES cells and postimplantation Epi-derived mouse epiblast stem cells, FGF signalling is instead required for pluripotency maintenance. It remains unclear how these divergent outcomes arise, especially as these cells rely on a similar core pluripotency gene network. This study demonstrates that ectopic expression of the PrE transcription factor Gata6 destabilises mouse ES cell pluripotency in vitro and upregulates PrE-associated genes independently of FGF signalling. As previous studies show that PrE specification is compromised in Fgf4-/- embryos, despite initiation of Gata6, this suggests FGF signalling and Gata6 cooperatively drive PrE specification in vivo. Characterising Gata6 function determines that it directly binds to both up- and downregulated gene targets and potently initiates reprogramming in multiple cell types, including human ES cells, suggesting it may also antagonise pluripotency in vivo. Surprisingly, FGF stimulation negatively affects establishment of the pluripotent human Epi. Characterising alternative signalling pathways in the human embryo finds that modulating IGF signalling promotes proliferation of the human ICM, and similar to human ES cells, intact TGFβ/Nodal signalling is required for pluripotent gene expression in the Epi. Consequently, as signalling requirements in the human Epi appear somewhat distinct from both the mouse Epi and existing human ES cells, modulating embryo-specific signalling pathways may permit derivation of human ES cells that more accurately reflect the pluripotent Epi compartment.

description: The aim of the article is to present the concept of entrepreneurship and innovation as factors determining the competitiveness of agritourism enterprises. The paper quoted information from the literature review. Innovation has an important infl uence on the development of the tourism sector. Innovation in the fi eld of tourism has become, in recent years, the subject of increasing interest, of both researchers and practitioners in the tourism economy. This is due to a constant search of new trends in tourism, both by companies specializing in tourism and society. The introduction of innovation in tourism, however, is a complex and multi-faceted process, because it is not only the modifi cation of the product, but also new types of tourism activities, or adaptation to the conditions for sustainable development. It may be noticed that currently discoveries in the fi eld of innovation in tourism are made. Very rarely this is because innovation is the result of systematic, often very expensive research, which requires a combination of the entire team representing the tourism industry professionals. The main aim of innovation in tourism businesses is striving to achieve a competitive advantage in the market. Mutual co-operation determines improvement of the competitiveness of tourism. It is said that the co-operation enables the development of individual entities. It establishes the result of access to specialized producing factors.

description: The publication is aimed at drawing attention to the problems and risks associated with the introduction of new legislation on the functioning of the internal audit in public fi nance sector units in Poland. Through an analysis of the regulations and developments in the fi eld of the above, the author points to the need for clarifi cation or amendment of the existing legal acts. It shows the essence of the problems and threats that impact the quality, accuracy and compliance with the IIA standards for the functioning of the internal audit in Poland. The publication uses a methodology based on an analysis of regulations and studies to assess the functioning of the internal audit in terms of the public fi nance sector. The problems and risks presented in this publication are currently occurring in the public sector. The solutions remain in the interest of internal auditors employed in the public fi nance sector, external contractors providing services within the scope of the audit and managers of the units in which the audit is functioning or will continue to function.

Primordial black holes from long-range scalar forces and scalar radiative cooling

description: We describe a new scenario for the formation of primordial black holes (PBHs). In the early Universe, the long-range forces mediated by the scalar fields can lead to formation of halos of heavy particles even during the radiation-dominated era. The same interactions result in the emission of scalar radiation from the motion and close encounters of particles in such halos. Radiative cooling due the scalar radiation allows the halos to collapse to black holes. We illustrate this scenario on a simple model with fermions interacting via the Yukawa forces. The abundance and the mass function of PBHs are suitable to account for all dark matter, or for some gravitational wave events detected by LIGO. The model relates the mass of the dark-sector particles to the masses and abundance of dark matter PBHs in a way that can explain why the dark matter and the ordinary matter have similar mass densities. The model also predicts a small contribution to the number of effective light degrees of freedom, which can help reconcile different measurements of the Hubble constant.

Our results for covalent (Si), metallic (Li, Al) and hydrogen-bonded ((H_2O)_2) systems agree well with experiments and computational results obtained with other band-structure and basis set schemes. The PAW basis set describes the high-momentum Fourier components of the valence wave functions accurately when compared with other basis set schemes and previous all-electron calculations.

description: Unaccompanied migrant youth, fleeing to a new country without their parents, are exposed to mental health risks. Resilience interventions mitigate such risks, but access can be hindered by systemic and personal barriers. While much work has recently addressed designing technology to promote mental health, none has focused on the needs of these populations. This paper presents the results of interviews with 18 professional/ volunteer support workers and 5 unaccompanied migrant youths, followed by three design workshops. The results point to the diverse systems that can facilitate youths' resilience development. The relationship between the youth and volunteers acting as mentors is particularly important for increasing resilience but comes with challenges. This suggests the relevance of a social-ecological model of resilience with a focus on designing technology to support the mentors in order to help them better support the youth. We conclude by mapping out the design space for mentor support.

description: The article concerns the spatial diversity of rural areas. The aim of the article is to evaluate whether the process of convergence of real wages in rural areas in Poland can be observed. The author focuses on two concepts of convergence: absolute (unconditional) beta convergence and sigma convergence. The analysis regards rural districts at NUTS-4 level for 2002–2014. It was stated that rural areas in Poland became similar (converge) in terms of real wages what can help reducing the diff erences in living standard of inhabitants. An estimated regression function confi rms the existence of absolute beta convergence process. The growth rate of real wages was relatively higher in the districts with lower initial level. Moreover, the research carried out by the author indicates a decreasing dispersion of wages among rural districts. It shows the existence of sigma convergence process.

Repulsive Casimir-Lifshitz pressure in closed cavities

description: We consider the interaction pressure acting on the surface of a dielectric sphere enclosed within a magnetodielectric cavity. We determine the sign of this quantity regardless of the geometry of the cavity for systems at thermal equilibrium, extending the Dzyaloshinskii-Lifshitz-Pitaevskii result for homogeneous slabs. As in previous theorems regarding Casimir-Lifshitz forces, the result is based on the scattering formalism. In this case the proof follows from the variable phase approach of electromagnetic scattering. With this, we present configurations in which both the interaction and the self-energy contribution to the pressure tend to expand the sphere.

On the influence of relativistic effects on X-ray variability of accreting black holes

description: X-rays produced by compact flares co-rotating with a Keplerian accretion disc are modulated in time by Doppler effects. We improve on previous calculations of these effects by considering recent models of intrinsic X-ray variability, and compute the expected strength of the relativistic signal in current data of Seyfert galaxies and black hole binaries. Such signals could clearly be seen in, for example, recent XMM-Newton data from MCG-6-30-15, if indeed the X-rays were produced by co-rotating flares concentrated toward the inner disc edge around an extreme Kerr black hole. Lack of the signal in the data collected so far gives support to models, where the X-ray sources in active galaxies do not follow Keplerian orbits close to the black hole.

description: In its most general formulation a quantum kinematical system is described by a Heisenberg group; the "configuration space" in this case corresponds to a maximal isotropic subgroup. We study irreducible models for Heisenberg groups based on compact maximal isotropic subgroups. It is shown that if the Heisenberg group is 2-regular, but the subgroup is not, the "vacuum sector" of the irreducible representation exhibits a fermionic structure. This will be the case, for instance, in a quantum mechanical model based on the 2-adic numbers with a suitably chosen isotropic subgroup. The formulation in terms of Heisenberg groups allows a uniform treatment of p-adic quantum systems for all primes p, and includes the possibility of treating adelic systems.

Cognitive bias and Diagnostic Error: Protocol for a realist review into debiasing techniques and their application in emergency decision making
Creators: name: Cann, Christopher

Year: 2021
Subjects: Medicine

description: Introduction: Diagnostic error in the emergency department has been shown to be a significant issue that leads to increased hospital length of stay, morbidity and mortality.Estimates of the incidence of diagnostic error vary from 10% to 15% of cases, and it is recognised that it occurs more readily in the emergency department. While these errors are multifactorial, commonly cited causes included cognitive bias leading to diagnostic error. At present there is no clear guidance on how to combat these cognitive biases. Aims and Objectives: The aim of this project is to provide a rich insight into the current evidence of debiasing techniques and decision-making strategies and to highlight those that may be utilised to improve diagnostic accuracy in emergency medicine. Methodology: This article will descibe the protocol for a realist review to explore this topic in detail. Any deviation from this protocol will be highlighted in the project write up.

description: Galaxy spins can be predicted from the initial conditions in the early Universe through the tidal tensor twist. In simulations, their directions are well preserved through cosmic time, consistent with expectations of angular momentum conservation. We report a $\sim 3 σ$ detection of correlation between observed oriented directions of galaxy angular momenta and their predictions based on the initial density field reconstructed from the positions of SDSS galaxies. The detection is driven by a group of spiral galaxies classified by the Galaxy Zoo as (anti-)clockwise, with a modest improvement from adding galaxies from MaNGA and SAMI surveys. This is the first such detection of the oriented galaxy spin direction, which opens a way to use measurements of galaxy spins to probe fundamental physics in the early Universe.

description: In this Thesis, we introduce two new combinatorial objects known as Disjoint Partial Difference Families and External Partial Difference Families: these objects generalise Disjoint Difference Families (DDFs), External Difference Families (EDFs) and Partial Difference Sets (PDSs), which have all been well-studied in the literature. We demonstrate how DPDFs and EPDFs can be formed from PDSs and Relative Difference Sets (RDSs), presenting both cyclotomic and non-cyclotomic constructions of these objects. We also develop two new cyclotomic frameworks within this Thesis, which allow us to identify new cyclotomic constructions of DPDFs and EPDFs along with other types of difference structures. The first of these cyclotomic frameworks relies upon a series of partition results, the second utilises natural connections between cyclotomic numbers and cyclotomic cosets. These frameworks remove the need to evaluate all cyclotomic numbers in a particular finite field. We primarily use these frameworks to identify new DPDF and EPDF constructions, however, we also use the cyclotomic techniques underpinning these frameworks to establish a series of algorithms that compute the cyclotomic numbers in a given finite field. Further, we use one of these frameworks to prove that a PDS with Denniston parameters exists in the group Z_3^9: as 3 is an odd prime, it was previously believed that such a PDS would not exist in this group.

description: A minimal athermal model for the flow of dense disordered materials is proposed, based on two generic ingredients: local plastic events occuring above a microscopic yield stress, and the non-local elastic release of the stress these events induce in the material. A complex spatio-temporal rheological behaviour results, with features in line with recent experimental observations. At low shear rates, macroscopic flow actually originates from collective correlated bursts of plastic events, taking place in dynamically generated fragile zones. The related correlation length diverges algebraically at small shear rates. In confined geometries bursts occur preferentially close to the walls yielding an intermittent form of flow localization.

description: We explore the moiré magnon bands in twisted bilayer magnets with next-nearest neighboring Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interactions, assuming that the out-of-plane collinear magnetic order is preserved under weak interlayer coupling. By calculating the magnonic band structures and the topological Chern numbers for four representative cases, we find that (i) the valley moiré bands are extremely flat over a wide range of continuous twist angles; (ii) the topological Chern numbers of the lowest few flat bands vary significantly with the twist angle; and (iii) the lowest few topological flat bands in bilayer antiferromagnets entail nontrivial thermal spin transport in the transverse direction; These properties make twisted bilayer magnets an ideal platform to study the magnonic counterparts of moiré electrons, where the statistical distinction between magnons and electrons leads to fundamentally new physical behavior.
Appraisals of intrusive thoughts : an examination of the cognitive theory of obsessions
Creators: name: Corcoran, Kathleen Marie
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) is characterized by recurrent unwanted intrusive thoughts that evoke enormous distress and contribute to functional impairment. Cognitive theories of OCD posit that appraisals about the significance of thoughts are critical in the development and persistence of obsessions. In his theory; Rachman (1997) suggests that appraisals of unwanted thoughts distinguish clinical obsessions from normal intrusive thoughts; thoughts appraised as important and personally significant will be upsetting and recur. Moreover, cognitive theories propose that appraisals motivate thought suppression, which results in a paradoxical increase in the frequency of thoughts. This dissertation project was designed to examine several key tenets of Rachman's (1997) cognitive theory of obsessions. First, if appraisals of unwanted intrusive thoughts are relevant to OCD, a positive relationship should exist between appraisals and OCD symptomatology. To explore this hypothesis, nonclinical participants in Studies 1 and 2 read four vignettes, each portraying a prototypical obsession of aggressive, sexual, blasphemous, and racist themes, and indicated their appraisals about the personal significance of the intrusive thoughts. Questionnaires assessing obsessive-compulsive (OC) symptoms, OC beliefs, and depression were also administered. Results revealed that appraisals of the intrusive thoughts were related to subclinical OC symptoms and OC beliefs. Moreover, there was evidence that appraisals varied according to thought content and thought frequency. Second, the cognitive theory of obsessions implicates thought suppression in the development and persistence of obsessions. The purpose of Study 3 was to investigate whether the effects of thought suppression would differ depending on the personal meaning of the target thought. Sixty high religious and 60 low religious participants were randomly assigned to suppress or not suppress a blasphemous target thought. Number of thought recurrences, thought control effort, anxiety, and mood were assessed. Results revealed that appraisals of personal meaning, when combined with thought control effort, were associated with negative mood and increased anxiety. There was also partial support that thought suppression had differential effects on target thought frequency according to the personal meaning of the target thought. The implications of this research are discussed with a focus on the proposed role of appraisals in the development of intrusive thoughts.

description: The objective was to analyse certain aspects of poverty and the operation of the safety system before the limiting social exclusion and poverty. In the paper an attempt to answer the question: Is social policy between the new Member States and the countries of the “old Union” (EU15) the phenomenon of convergence or divergence? Research material were data from Eurostat and European Commission reports. The results of the comparative analysis of macroeconomic indicators of countries belonging to the European Union have not given a clear reply to the question. In turn, poverty rate analysis has shown that the most vulnerable population is living in sparsely populated rural areas. Also the problem of system solutions used in order to reduce poverty and, in particular, the level and dynamics of changes in the minimum wages was discussed. Besides, size and fi nancial structure were analysed for the implementation of operations in the framework of social policy. On the basis of the obtained research results, it was found that in the new Member States, the fi nancial assistance granted in the framework of social protection is about half lower than in the EU15 countries. There is still a large variation between EU countries in terms of economic development and the level of social services that directly impact the living conditions of the inhabitants.

description: Abstract The successful integration of neural networks in a clinical setting is still uncommon despite major successes achieved by artificial intelligence in other domains. This is mainly due to the black box characteristic of most optimized models and the undetermined generalization ability of the trained architectures. The current work tackles both issues in the radiology domain by focusing on developing an effective and interpretable cardiomegaly detection architecture based on segmentation models. The architecture consists of two distinct neural networks performing the segmentation of both cardiac and thoracic areas of a radiograph. The respective segmentation outputs are subsequently used to estimate the cardiothoracic ratio, and the corresponding radiograph is classified as a case of cardiomegaly based on a given threshold. Due to the scarcity of pixel-level labeled chest radiographs, both segmentation models are optimized in a semi-supervised manner. This results in a significant reduction in the costs of manual annotation. The resulting segmentation outputs significantly improve the interpretability of the architecture’s final classification results. The generalization ability of the architecture is assessed in a cross-domain setting. The assessment shows the effectiveness of the semi-supervised optimization of the segmentation models and the robustness of the ensuing classification architecture. © In Copyright http://rightsstatements.org/vocab/InC/1.0/

description: Counterion distributions at charged soft membranes are studied using perturbative analytical and simulation methods in both weak coupling (mean-field or Poisson-Boltzmann) and strong coupling limits. The softer the membrane, the more smeared out the counterion density profile becomes and counterions pentrate through the mean-membrane surface location, in agreement with anomalous scattering results. Membrane-charge repulsion leads to a short-scale roughening of the membrane.

description: We show how series expansions of functions of bosonic number operators are naturally derived from finite-difference calculus. The scheme employs Newton series rather than Taylor series known from differential calculus, and also works in cases where the Taylor expansion fails. For a function of number operators, such an expansion is automatically normal ordered. Applied to the Holstein-Primakoff representation of spins, the scheme yields an exact series expansion with a finite number of terms and, in addition, allows for a systematic expansion of the spin operators that respects the spin commutation relations within a truncated part of the full Hilbert space. Furthermore, the Newton series expansion strongly facilitates the calculation of expectation values with respect to coherent states. As a third example, we show that factorial moments and factorial cumulants arising in the context of photon or electron counting are a natural consequence of Newton series expansions. Finally, we elucidate the connection between normal ordering, Taylor and Newton series by determining a corresponding integral transformation, which is related to the Mellin transform.

description: The aim of the paper was to isolate, from countries where there is the biggest problem of malnutrition, groups which are similar according to the food situation. The research was based on the data of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). The analysis covered 115 countries, where according to the FAO there is the highest level of malnutrition. The method of comparative analysis was used in the research and the process of grouping of countries according to the determinants of food situation was conducted with the use of cluster analysis. The research applied to the period 2012-2014. The typology of the countries let us to identify the most important factors determining the food situation in each cluster. There are historical events, national wealth or poverty which was accumulated over the time, natural conditions, as well as cultural and political conditions. Examples of relatively rich countries, where the malnutrition problem also appears, indicate the importance of income inequality.

description: Multifragmentation reactions are dominating processes for the decomposition of highly excited nuclei leading to the fragment production in heavy-ion collisions. At high energy reactions strange particles are abundantly produced. We present a novel development of the Statistical multifragmentation model (SMM) as its generalization for the hyper-matter which is formed after the hyperon capture. In this way, it is possible to describe its disintegration into normal and hyper-nuclei. Some properties of hyper-nuclei and their binding energies can be determined from the comparison of the isotope yields. The main focus of this method is to investigate strange and multi-strange hypernuclei since their properties are not easy to measure in traditional hyper-nuclei experiments.
