Marmosa jansae

description: Marmosa (Micoureus) jansae Voss and Giarla, 2021
TYPE MATERIAL AND TYPE LOCALITY: ROM 118880, the holotype by original designation, consists of the skin, skull, postcranial skeleton, and frozen tissues of an adult male collected 42 km south and 1 km east of Pompeya Sur (0.68° S, 76.47° W), Parque Nacional Yasuní, Orellana province, Ecuador.
SYNONYMS: None.
 DISTRIBUTION: Marmosa jansae is currently known from the Amazonian lowlands of southeastern Colombia (Putumayo), eastern Ecuador (Orellana, Pastaza), and northeastern Peru (Loreto, north of the Amazon) (Voss and Giarla, 2021: fig. 2).
 REMARKS: Specimens of Marmosa jansae were identified by Tate (1933) as M. germana germana or as M. g. rutteri, and subsequently collected specimens have often been identified as M. regina (e.g., by Hice and Velazco, 2012). Voss and Giarla (2021) provided a morphological description, measurement data, taxonomic comparisons, and other relevant information about this species.

Advancements in Ionospheric Modeling: Comparative Analysis of VTEC Derivation from Co-Located VLBI and VGOS Stations

description: Accurate ionospheric models are essential for precise processing of single-frequency receivers in the microwave regime, such as smartphone receivers for Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) data. Currently, the predominant models primarily originate from GNSS data, leveraging its continuous and extensive global data coverage. Yet, Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) offers an alternative approach to determine Vertical Total Electron Content (VTEC), a fundamental metric that offers valuable insights into the ionosphere. Future prospects include the potential utilization of VLBI observations to enhance ionospheric models if the robustness and reliability of the derived values are sufficient. The recent operationalization of the VLBI Global Observing System (VGOS) has further enhanced the potential for VTEC derivation with its four frequency bands. We have developed an iterative least squares algorithm for deriving VTEC values above each station, applicable to both VLBI and VGOS sessions. Our study focuses on the analysis of operational 24-hour sessions, specifically targeting sessions post the CONT17 campaign We concentrate on co-located stations where both VLBI and VGOS sessions occur simultaneously, offering a unique opportunity for comparative analysis. The derived VTEC values from our algorithm are analyzed to assess their consistency and reliability. To further validate our findings, we utilize two independent GNSS-based datasets, namely Global Ionosphere Maps (GIM) and Madrigal TEC Maps (MTM). Initial results reveal a reduced standard deviation of differences and higher correlation between VGOS and GIM products indicating a more consistent inter-technological bias compared to VLBI.

description: Recent events such as wars, sanctions, pandemics, and climate change have shown the importance of proper supply network management. A key step in managing supply networks is procurement. We present an approach for realizing a next-generation procurement workspace that aims to facilitate resilience and sustainability. To achieve this, the approach encompasses a novel way of information integration, automation tools as well as analytical techniques. As a result, the procurement can be viewed from the perspective of the environmental impact, comprising and aggregating sustainability scores along the supply chain. We suggest and present an implementation of our approach, which is meanwhile used in a global Fortune 500 company. We further present the results of an empirical evaluation study, where we performed in-depth interviews with the stakeholders of the novel procurement platform to validate its adequacy, usability, and innovativeness.

description: Background: Orthopedic injuries often occur at the interface between soft tissues and bone. The tendon-bone junction (TBJ) is a classic example of such an interface. Current clinical strategies for TBJ injuries prioritize mechanical reattachment over regeneration of the native interface, resulting in poor outcomes. The need to promote regenerative healing of spatially-graded tissues inspires our effort to develop new tissue engineering technologies that replicate features of the spatially-graded extracellular matrix and strain profiles across the native TBJ. Materials and Methods: We recently described a biphasic collagen-glycosaminoglycan (CG) scaffold containing distinct compartment with divergent mineral content and structural alignment (isotropic vs. anisotropic) linked by a continuous interface zone to mimic structural and compositional features of the native TBJ. Results: Here, we report application of cyclic tensile strain (CTS) to the scaffold via a bioreactor leads to non-uniform strain profiles across the spatially-graded scaffold. Further, combinations of CTS and matrix structural features promote rapid, spatially-distinct differentiation profiles of human bone marrow-derived mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) down multiple osteotendinous lineages. CTS preferentially upregulates MSC activity and tenogenic differentiation in the anisotropic region of the scaffold. This work demonstrates a tissue engineering approach that couples instructive biomaterials with cyclic tensile stimuli to promote regenerative healing of orthopedic interfaces.

description: The strong piezoelectric fields accompanying a surface acoustic wave on a semiconductor quantum well structure are employed to dissociate optically generated excitons and efficiently trap the created electron hole pairs in the moving lateral potential superlattice of the sound wave. The resulting spatial separation of the photogenerated ambipolar charges leads to an increase of the radiative lifetime by orders of magnitude as compared to the unperturbed excitons. External and deliberate screening of the lateral piezoelectric fields triggers radiative recombination after very long storage times at a remote location on the sample.

Decoding Information by Following Parameter Modulation With Parameter Adaptive Control

Year: 2000
Subjects: subject: Chaotic Dynamics (nlin.CD)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: It has been proposed to realize secure communication using chaotic synchronization via transmission of binary message encoded by parameter modulation in the chaotic system. This paper considers the use of parameter adaptive control techniques to extract the message, based on the assumptions that we know the equation form of the chaotic system in the transmitter but do not have access to the precise values of the parameters which are kept secret as a secure set. In the case that a synchronizing system can be constructed using parameter adaptive control by the transmitted signal and the synchronization is robust to parameter mismatches, the parameter modulation can be revealed and the message decoded without resorting to exact parameter values in the secure set. A practical local Lyapunov function method for designing parameter adaptive control rules based on originally synchronized systems is presented.

TYPE MATERIAL AND TYPE LOCALITY: BMNH 5.10.31.5, the holotype by original designation, consists of the skin and skull of an adult male collected at Bluefields (12.00° N, 83.75° W; sea level), South Caribbean Autonomous Region, Nicaragua.
SYNONYMS: None.
 DISTRIBUTION: Examined specimens of Marmosa nicaraguae are from just three localities in the Caribbean coastal lowlands of Nicaragua and Costa Rica, but a photographed individual from the Pacific foothills of the Cordillera Tilarán (in Costa Rica) suggests that the species may be more widely distributed (Voss et al., 2021: fig. 2).
 REMARKS: Marmosa nicaraguae was formerly considered to be a subspecies of M. alstoni (e.g., by Tate, 1933; Hall, 1981), but evidence that these taxa are morphologically and genetically distinct was discussed by Voss et al. (2021).

description: This study investigated the effects of incorporating Brazilian green propolis ethanolic extract and oregano (Origanum vulgare) methanolic extract into type I collagen hydrogel to enhance pressure ulcer healing in mice. Forty-four mice were divided into four groups: untreated control, plain collagen hydrogel, collagen hydrogel with 1% green propolis extract, and collagen hydrogel with 1% oregano extract. Pressure ulcers were induced on their dorsal skin, followed by a 14-day assessment of wound area, contraction, re-epithelialization, dermal collagen density, and levels of reactive oxygen species and nitrite. Results showed significant tissue repair promotion by both propolis and oregano extracts, with oregano exhibiting superior wound contraction. These hydrogels also facilitated skin layer reorganisation and reduced reactive oxygen species and nitrite production. Collagen hydrogels containing these extracts show promising therapeutic potential for pressure ulcer treatment.

Gravitational Settling of ^{22}Ne in Liquid White Dwarf Interiors--Cooling and Seismological Effects

description: We assess the impact of the trace element ^{22}Ne on the cooling and seismology of a liquid C/O white dwarf (WD). Due to this elements' neutron excess, it sinks towards the interior as the liquid WD cools. The subsequent gravitational energy released slows the cooling of the WD by 0.25--1.6 Gyrs by the time it has completely crystallized, depending on the WD mass and the adopted sedimentation rate. The effects will make massive WDs or those in metal rich clusters (such as NGC 6791) appear younger than their true age. Our diffusion calculations show that the ^{22}Ne mass fraction in the crystallized core actually increases outwards. The stability of this configuration has not yet been determined. In the liquid state, the settled ^{22}Ne enhances the internal buoyancy of the interior and changes the periods of the high radial order g-modes by approximately 1%. Though a small adjustment, this level of change far exceeds the accuracy of the period measurements. A full assessment and comparison of mode frequencies for specific WDs should help constrain the still uncertain ^{22}Ne diffusion coefficient for the liquid interior.

description: A torus-shaped sail consists of a reflective membrane attached to an inflatable torus-shaped rim. The sail's deployment from its stowed configuration is initiated by introducing inflation pressure into the toroidal rim with an attached circular flat membrane coated by heat-sensitive materials that undergo thermal desorption (TD) from a solid to a gas phase. Our study of the deployment and acceleration of the sail is split into three steps: at a particular heliocentric distance a torus-shaped sail is deployed by a gas inflated into the toroidal rim and the membrane is kept flat by the pressure of the gas; under heating by solar radiation, the membrane coat undergoes TD and the sail is accelerated via TD of coating and solar radiation pressure (SRP); when TD ends, the sail utilizes thrust only from SRP. We study the stability of the torus-shaped sail and deflection and vibration of the flat membrane due to the acceleration by TD and SRP. The stability of the toroidal rim is addressed.

description: We discuss the phase diagram of the balls in boxes model, with a varying number of boxes. The model can be regarded as a mean-field model of simplicial gravity. We analyse in detail the case of weights of the form $p(q) = q^{-β}$, which correspond to the measure term introduced in the simplicial quantum gravity simulations. The system has two phases~: {\em elongated} ({\em fluid}) and {\em crumpled}. For $β\in (2,\infty)$ the transition between these two phases is first order, while for $β\in (1,2]$ it is continuous. The transition becomes softer when $β$ approaches unity and eventually disappears at $β=1$. We then generalise the discussion to an arbitrary set of weights. Finally, we show that if one introduces an additional kinematic bound on the average density of balls per box then a new {\em condensed} phase appears in the phase diagram. It bears some similarity to the {\em crinkled} phase of simplicial gravity discussed recently in models of gravity interacting with matter fields.

description: Nanoindentation is a convenient method to investigate the mechanical properties of materials on small scales by utilizing low loads and small indentation depths. However, the effect of grain boundaries (GB) on the nanoindentation response remains unclear and needs to be studied by investigating in detail the interactions between dislocations and GBs during nanoindentation. In the present work, we employ a three-dimensional multiscale modeling framework, which couples three-dimensional discrete dislocation dynamics (DDD) with the Finite Element method (FEM) to investigate GB effects on the nanoindentation behavior of an aluminum bicrystal. The interaction between dislocations and GB is physically modeled in terms of a penetrable GB, where piled-up dislocations can penetrate through the GB and dislocation debris at GBs can emit full dislocations into grains. In the simulation, we confirmed two experimentally observed phenomena, namely, pop-in events and the dependence of indentation hardness on the distance from GB. Two pop-in events were observed, of which the initial pop-in event is correlated with the activation and multiplication of dislocations, while the GB pop-in event results from dislocation transmission through the GB. By changing the distance between the indenter and GB, the simulation shows that the indentation hardness increases with decreasing GB-indenter distance. A quantitative model has been formulated which relates the dependency of indentation hardness on indentation depth and on GB-indenter distance to the back stress created by piled-up geometrically necessary dislocations in the plastic zone and to the additional constraint imposed by the GB on the plastic zone size.

description: The interferometry-based experimental tests of quantum properties of space-time which the author sketched out in a recent short Letter [Nature 398 (1999) 216] are here discussed in self-contained fashion. Besides providing detailed derivations of the results already announced in the previous Letter, some new results are also derived; in particular, the analysis is extended to a larger class of scenarios for space-time fuzziness and an absolute bound on the measurability of the amplitude of a gravity wave is obtained. It is argued that these studies could be helpful for the search of a theory describing a first stage of partial unification of Gravity and Quantum Mechanics.

TYPE MATERIAL AND TYPE LOCALITY: BMNH 98.9.5.2, the holotype by original designation, consists of the skin and skull of a young adult female collected at San Pablo (1.10° N, 78.02° W; ca. 1500 m), Nariño department, Colombia.
SYNONYMS: None.
 DISTRIBUTION: Specimens that resemble the type of Marmosa phaea are from Andean foothills and middle elevations (between ca. 1200 and 2800 m) in the Colombian departments of Cauca, Huila, and Nariño.
 REMARKS: This species has not been critically evaluated since Tate (1933), and it badly needs revisionary attention. Voss et al. (2020) recovered a strongly supported haplogroup that they associated with the name Marmosa phaea, but some of the phaea -like sequences in their study came from specimens that differ in size and qualitative craniodental traits from typical material, and other specimens are from implausibly distant localities (e.g., in northern Venezuela and northwestern Brazil; Voss et al., 2020: fig. 2). Gardner and Creighton (2008a) listed M. perplexa as a synonym of M. phaea, but subsequent research has shown that these are unequivocally distinct species (Voss and Giarla, 2021).

description: Convergence analysis of accelerated first-order methods for convex optimization problems are presented from the point of view of ordinary differential equation solvers. A new dynamical system, called Nesterov accelerated gradient flow, has been derived from the connection between acceleration mechanism and $A$-stability of ODE solvers, and the exponential decay of a tailored Lyapunov function along with the solution trajectory is proved. Numerical discretizations are then considered and convergence rates are established via a unified discrete Lyapunov function. The proposed differential equation solver approach can not only cover existing accelerated methods, such as FISTA, Güler's proximal algorithm and Nesterov's accelerated gradient method, but also produce new algorithms for composite convex optimization that possess accelerated convergence rates.

description: Comprehensive neutron scattering studies were carried out on a series of high-quality single crystals of Cu_{1-x}Zn_xGeO_3. The Zn concentration, x, was determined for each sample using Electron Probe Micro-Analysis. The measured Zn concentrations were found to be 40-80% lower than the nominal values. Nevertheless the measured concentrations cover a wide range which enables a systematic study of the effects due to Zn-doping. We have confirmed the coexistence of spin-Peierls (SP) and antiferromagnetic (AF) orderings at low temperatures and the measured phase diagram is presented. Most surprisingly, long-range AF ordering occurs even in the lowest available Zn concentration, x=0.42%, which places important constraints on theoretical models of the AF-SP coexistence. Magnetic excitations are also examined in detail. The AF excitations are sharp at low energies and show no considerable broadening as x increases indicating that the AF ordering remains long ranged for x up to 4.7%. On the other hand, the SP phase exhibits increasing disorder as x increases, as shown from the broadening of the SP excitations as well as the dimer reflection peaks.

Marmosa rapposa

description: Marmosa (Micoureus) rapposa Thomas, 1899
TYPE MATERIAL AND TYPE LOCALITY: BMNH 98.11.6.13, the holotype by original designation, consists of the skin and skull of an old adult female collected on the “Vilcanota River just north of Cuzco ” (= Huadquiña: 13.12° S, 72.65° W; 1500 m), Cusco department, Peru (Voss et al., 2020).
 SYNONYMS: budini Thomas, 1920.
 DISTRIBUTION: Marmosa rapposa is known from cloud forests along the eastern slopes of the Andes below about 2500 m in southeastern Peru, Bolivia, and northwestern Argentina, and from the dry-forested lowlands of eastern Bolivia, Paraguay, and southwestern Brazil (Voss et al., 2020: fig. 12).
 REMARKS: Although Marmosa rapposa was one of several valid species previously synonymized with Marmosa regina (sensu Gardner and Creighton, 2008a), specimens from Bolivia, Brazil, and Argentina were frequently identified as M. constantiae (e.g., by Anderson, 1997; Flores et al., 2007). Silva et al. (2019) were the first to distinguish this species—which they called M. budini —from M. constantiae, but M. rapposa is an older available name (Voss et al., 2020). Marmosa rapposa is closely related to M. parda and M. rutteri, which together comprise the Rapposa Group of the subgenus Micoureus.

Legitimacy beliefs towards global governance institutions: a research agenda

description: Legitimacy is central to the functioning of global governance institutions (GGIs) such as the European Union (EU) and the United Nations. There is a vibrant debate about legitimacy in International Relations, and a burgeoning literature in comparative politics on public attitudes towards the EU. Yet, these literatures rarely speak to each other, which has resulted in missed opportunities for theoretical advancements on the sources and consequences of citizens’ legitimacy beliefs vis-à-vis GGIs. To assist researchers in advancing on this state of the art, this research note develops a conceptualization of popular legitimacy as a multidimensional belief system including both moral convictions and self-interest. A statistical analysis of public attitudes towards the EU from 1973 to 2012 suggests that commonly used survey measures capture self-interest rather than moral beliefs. This note concludes by suggesting a research agenda intended to push theory and survey research on legitimacy beliefs towards GGIs forward.

description: Across various European countries, Fraxinus excelsior L. is facing a decline caused by Hymenoscyphus fraxineus . The underlying mechanisms of the disease are still insufficiently understood in detail. Observations suggest that, in addition to the main pathogen, viral infections may also contribute to the decline of ash trees. We described homologues in the F. excelsior genome of formerly annotated virus resistance genes in model species and tested the applicability of primers on these gene fragments. Further, a prediction of cis-acting regulatory elements and transcription factor binding sites was accomplished, to determine the exact location of the promoters of these genes in the ash genome. After annotation and filtering the low-complexity regions, primers for use with genomic DNA were designed on sequences that showed a high degree of similarity and equality in length to translated regions and promoters of these regions. From the newly designed primers, those with the most favourable primer selection parameters were selected and tested on eight virus infected—four symptomatic and four asymptomatic—samples. The amplified products were analysed by agarose gel electrophoresis. From all producing one-band amplicons, 36 primer pairs amplifying translated, and 36 primers amplifying promoter regions were selected. Our study is the first step of a SNP discovery and marker development test. The further marker development on these sequences could be useful for the selection of ash individuals with various resistance to viral infections, providing a route for a more thorough understanding of the ash dieback–virus resistance interaction.

description: We investigate the real-time closed-loop control of compensation point in the K-Rb-$^{21}$Ne comagnetometer operated in the spin-exchange relaxation-free regime. By locking the electron resonance, the alkali metal electrons are free from the fluctuations of the longitudinal ambient magnetic field and nuclear magnetization, which could improve the systematic stability, enlarge the linear measuring range, and suppress the cross-talk error of the comagnetometer. This is the first demonstration of closed-loop control of magnetic field in the single nuclear species comagnetometer, which will be of great significance for rotation sensing as gyroscopes and other high precision metrology applications of the comagnetometer.
Distance-redshift relation in an isotropic inhomogeneous universe: Spherically symmertic dust-shell universe

description: The relation between angular diameter distance and redshift in a spherically symmetric dust-shell universe is studied. This model has large inhomogeneities of matter distribution on small scales. We have discovered that the relation agrees with that of an appropriate Friedmann-Lemaitre(FL) model if we set a ``homogeneous'' expansion law and a ``homogeneous'' averaged density field. This will support the averaging hypothesis that a universe looks like a FL model in spite of small-scale fluctuations of density field, if its averaged density field is homogeneous on large scales.

description: Sisal fibers were employed as cost-effective adsorbent material to remove methylene blue (MB) and reactive black 5 (RB5) dyes from aqueous solutions. The fibers were characterized and the effects of adsorbent dosage and pH were investigated. Kinetic, equilibrium, and thermodynamics were analyzed. Desorption studies were performed and simulated textile effluents were treated with the fibers. The results revealed that the homogeneous surface diffusion model (HSDM) for cylindrical geometry was able to explain the adsorption kinetics, being the diffusion coefficients (DS) of 3.45 and 1.94 × 10−14 cm2 s−1 for MB and RB5, respectively. The BET model was adequate to represent the equilibrium data for MB and RB5. Adsorption capacities reached 553.4 and 310.2 mg g−1 for MB and RB5, respectively. Adsorption was spontaneous and favorable. Chemisorption was involved in the MB adsorption, while, physisorption was dominant for RB5 adsorption. Sisal fibers were efficient to decolorize a simulated effluent, reaching color removal percentage of 85%. It can be concluded that sisal fibers are a promising adsorbent to treat colored effluents, since has low cost, require little processing and possess high adsorption capacity for anionic and cationic dyes.

description: We extend the investigation of the gravitational collapse of a spherically symmetric Yang-Mills field in Einstein gravity and show that, within the black hole regime, a new kind of critical behavior arises which separates black holes formed via Type I collapse from black holes formed through Type II collapse. Further, we provide evidence that these new attracting critical solutions are in fact the previously discovered colored black holes with a single unstable mode.
