description: Theoretical and numerical studies are presented of the nonlinear amplitude modulation of dust-acoustic (DA) waves propagating in an unmagnetized three component, weakly-coupled, fully ionized plasma consisting of electrons, positive ions and charged dust particles, considering perturbations oblique to the carrier wave propagation direction. The stability analysis, based on a nonlinear Schroedinger-type equation (NLSE), shows that the wave may become unstable; the stability criteria depend on the angle $θ$ between the modulation and propagation directions. Explicit expressions for the instability rate and threshold have been obtained in terms of the dispersion laws of the system. The possibility and conditions for the existence of different types of localized excitations have also been discussed.

title: A Relational Sense of Place: Reimagining the “End of Coal” in the Anthropocene
Creators: name: Butler, Robert
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2020

description: Climate change has been widely discussed in scientific and ethical terms, but it also needs to be thought through as an idea of the imagination (Hulme 2009). This presents a number of significant challenges. There is a deficit in the social imaginary (Braidotti 2013). To counter this deficit involves generating new types of description (Latour 2018). These new types of description require a massive, counterintuitive shift (Morton 2018).

 How can the Anthropocene be imagined in a way, for instance, that brings labour and environment together within a wider set of processes? The histories of environment and labour have largely been kept apart (Malm 2016). A major reason for that separation is that the relational aspects of resource extraction have not been taken seriously enough (Moore 2015). This thesis proposes a relational sense of place as a way of generating new descriptions in the Anthropocene. The sense of place is approached through aesthetics—specifically the geographical imagination—rather than ethics or epistemology. What specific aspects of the geographical imagination might be theorised and what methodologies might be useful in putting these theories into practice?

 The case studies are exercises in knowledge production that arose from the “end of coal” in Britain in December 2015. These represent a series of modalities that directly related to this moment: a news report, a feature article, below-the-line comments, a TV documentary, a stage play and a dance piece. The analysis of the case studies asks how far the discourse about the “end of coal” connected labour and environment and one place with another. And how far did the conditions of possibility within the modalities shape the narrative outcomes? As societies struggle to transition towards low-carbon economies, it is important to recognise what stories tell stories (Haraway 2016).

description: Prediction of future movement of stock prices has been a subject matter of many research work. There is a gamut of literature of technical analysis of stock prices where the objective is to identify patterns in stock price movements and derive profit from it. Improving the prediction accuracy remains the single most challenge in this area of research. We propose a hybrid approach for stock price movement prediction using machine learning, deep learning, and natural language processing. We select the NIFTY 50 index values of the National Stock Exchange of India, and collect its daily price movement over a period of three years (2015 to 2017). Based on the data of 2015 to 2017, we build various predictive models using machine learning, and then use those models to predict the closing value of NIFTY 50 for the period January 2018 till June 2019 with a prediction horizon of one week. For predicting the price movement patterns, we use a number of classification techniques, while for predicting the actual closing price of the stock, various regression models have been used. We also build a Long and Short-Term Memory - based deep learning network for predicting the closing price of the stocks and compare the prediction accuracies of the machine learning models with the LSTM model. We further augment the predictive model by integrating a sentiment analysis module on twitter data to correlate the public sentiment of stock prices with the market sentiment. This has been done using twitter sentiment and previous week closing values to predict stock price movement for the next week. We tested our proposed scheme using a cross validation method based on Self Organizing Fuzzy Neural Networks and found extremely interesting results.

title: Protumoral Role of Complement Activation in Murine Sarcoma and Skin Cancer Models
Creators: name: Di Marco, Sabrina
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2022

description: Cancer related inflammation (CRI) plays a fundamental role in fueling tumor appearance and development. Despite the important contribution of complement activation to inflammation establishment, its role in CRI still remains understudied. Recently, our group demonstrated the pro-malignant role of complement activation in models of mesenchymal [3-methycolanthrene (3-MCA)-induced] and epithelial [dimethylbenz-α-anthracene/terephthalic acid (DMBA/TPA)-induced)] carcinogenesis, showing that mice deficient for the central complement component C3 were protected from tumor development. The aims of this thesis were the investigation on the role of complement activation in the context of cancer-related inflammation in mouse model of sarcoma and skin carcinogenesis.

 The experiments revealed the deposition of C3-cleavage products on vessels and tumor cells. C3 deposition on cancer cells was also observed in 3-MCA-derived and MN/MCA1 sarcoma cells in vitro, and it was affected by alterations in the glycocalyx composition. C3-/-, MBL1/2-/- and C4-/- mice showed reduced susceptibility to 3-MCA-induced carcinogenesis, whereas C1q deficiency had marginal effects only in the transplanted MN/MCA1 sarcoma model, suggesting that the lectin pathway was mainly responsible for complement activation. The deficiency of Complement 3a receptor (C3aR), but not of C5aR1 and C5aR2, mirrored the phenotype of C3-/- mice, suggesting that C3a/C3aR signaling was the C3 downstream mechanism supporting sarcoma development. Further, C3 and C3aR deficiency were associated with reduced accumulation and functional skewing of tumor-associated macrophages, increased T cell activation and response to anti-PD-1 therapy. Transcriptional profile analysis revealed that C3 deficiency was associated with the upregulation of several genes involved in the MHC II-dependent antigen presentation process in macrophages. In contrast, in the DMBA/TPA model, the C5a/C5aR1 signaling was responsible for skin lesion development. Finally, in human undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcoma (UPS) the lack of C3aR expression was associated with higher recurrence-free and metastasis-free survival, suggesting that C3a/C3aR signaling was responsible for sarcoma aggressiveness and progression in humans as well as in mouse models.

 Our results indicate that complement activation occurs in tumor, although the effector mechanism/s involved are context-dependent.

description: We consider a model mixture of hard colloidal spheres and non-adsorbing polymer chains in a theta solvent. The polymer component is modelled as a polydisperse mixture of effective spheres, mutually noninteracting but excluded from the colloids, with radii that are free to adjust to allow for colloid-induced compression. We investigate the bulk fluid demixing behaviour of this model system using a geometry-based density-functional theory that includes the polymer size polydispersity and configurational free energy, obtained from the exact radius-of-gyration distribution for an ideal (random-walk) chain. Free energies are computed by minimizing the free energy functional with respect to the polymer size distribution. With increasing colloid concentration and polymer-to-colloid size ratio, colloidal confinement is found to increasingly compress the polymers. Correspondingly, the demixing fluid binodal shifts, compared to the incompressible-polymer binodal, to higher polymer densities on the colloid-rich branch, stabilizing the mixed phase.

description: We approach the calculation of the nuclear matrix element of the neutrinoless double-beta decay process, considering the light-neutrino-exchange channel, by way of the realistic shell model. To this end, we start from a realistic nucleon-nucleon potential and then derive the effective shell-model Hamiltonian and neutrinoless double-beta decay operator within the many-body perturbation theory. We focus on investigating the perturbative properties of the effective shell-model operator of such a decay process, aiming to establish the degree of reliability of our predictions. The contributions of the so-called short-range correlations and of the correction of Pauli-principle violations to the effective shell-model operator, the latter introduced in many-valence nucleon systems, are also taken into account. The subjects of our study are a few candidates to the neutrinoless double-beta decay detection, in a mass interval ranging from A=48 up to A=136, whose spin- and spin-isospin-dependent decay properties we have studied in previous works. Our results will be finally compared with shell-model calculations for the same set of nuclei.

title: Doing serodiscordant intimacy in the era of HIV biomedicalisation: A qualitative investigation of the lived experience of gay and bisexual men in serodiscordant relationships in the UK
Creators: name: Witney, Tom
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2020

description: HIV ‘treatment as prevention’ (TasP) is a biomedical concept in which antiretroviral drugs are deployed to prevent HIV transmission. TasP originated as an epidemiological concept created in order to tackle the HIV pandemic but is expected to have transformative potential for people in mixed HIV status (serodiscordant) relationships. Hailed in medical circles as a ‘game changer’, TasP has been framed in the ‘U=U’ community discourse as providing certainty about the lack of transmission risk and as an opportunity to tackle stigma. I argue that although TasP was produced through studies of people in serodiscordant relationships, it neglects the intimate contexts in which it operates. Serodiscordant relationships have been constructed as troubled sites of transmission risk. In light of the biomedical transformation of HIV prevention, these risk-centric conceptions have been contested as couples draw on TasP to realise new forms of serodiscordant intimacy. This thesis provides an examination of how gay and bisexual men in serodiscordant relationships practice intimacy and how these practices are structured through biomedical and social influences. It presents the findings of a study of the lived experience of serodiscordant relationships in the UK drawing on a phenomenologically informed thematic analysis of data generated in individual (n=28) and couple interviews (n=6). Participants incorporated biomedical practices, such as taking treatment, into their everyday practices of intimacy and engaged in emotion work to establish a sense of normality. They engaged with biomedically transformed risk and the relationality of serodiscordancy to redefine ‘safer sex’ and ideas of responsibility. Participants managed their serodiscordant identity in order to deal with stigma, selectively engaging with others outside their relationship. In contrast with the certainty that is central to community articulations of the meanings of TasP, uncertainty underpinned participants’ everyday experiences of serodiscordancy. This thesis contributes to sociological literature on intimate relationships to understanding of how biomedical transformations more generally are lived. By combining biomedicalisation and intimacy theories with a focus on the everyday, it provides a novel framework through which to examine serodiscordancy.

description: We present a re-analysis of the simultaneous 30 day IUE/XTE observation of NGC 7469 done in 1996. Our main progress, in comparison to previous spectral analysis, is to adopt and fit directly to the data a detailed Comptonization model. This firstly allows to fit simultaneously the data from the UV to the hard X-ray band in a self-consistent way and secondly it gives direct constraints on the physical parameters of the disc-corona system. Our results are completely consistent with a slab geometry where all the observed UV emission is supposed to cross the corona but more photon-starved geometries also give acceptable fits. Whatever the geometry is, the UV seed photon emission appears to be dominated by the reprocessing of the X-rays. We also found very interesting correlations between the different model parameters, the most important one being the anticorrelation between the corona temperature and the UV flux. Such an anticorrelation is clearly inconsistent with a fixed disc-corona configuration and suggests a variation of the geometry of the system. We also find a correlation between the corona optical depth and the X-ray flux which may reflect processes linked to the corona formation. During the observations, NGC 7469 appears to accrete near its Eddington limit. This source could then be an example of magnetically dominated disc-corona system as recently proposed by Merloni (2003).

description: The present study describes a special lipid-polyethylene glycol matrix solid lipid nanoparticles (SLNs; 138 nm; −2.07 mV) for ocular delivery. Success of this matrix to encapsulate (entrapment efficiency − 62.09%) a hydrophilic drug, fluconazole (FCZ-SLNs), with no burst release (67% release in 24 h) usually observed with most water-soluble drugs, is described presently. The system showed 164.64% higher flux than the marketed drops (Zocon®) through porcine cornea. Encapsulation within SLNs and slow release did not compromise efficacy of FCZ-SLNs. Latter showed in vitro and in vivo antifungal effects, including antibiofilm effects comparable to free FCZ solution. Developed system was safe and stable (even to sterilisation by autoclaving); and showed optimal viscosity, refractive index and osmotic pressure. These SLNs could reach up to retina following application as drops. The mechanism of transport via corneal and non-corneal transcellular pathways is described by fluorescent and TEM images of mice eye cross sections. Particles streamed through the vitreous, crossed inner limiting membrane and reached the outer retinal layers.

description: Context: Subdwarf B stars (sdBs) play a crucial role in stellar evolution, asteroseismology, and far-UV radiation of early-type galaxies, and have been intensively studied with observation and theory. It has theoretically been predicted that sdBs with neutron star (NS) companions exist in the Galaxy, but none have been discovered yet. This remains a puzzle in this field. In a previous study (hereafter Paper I), we have studied the formation channels of sdB+NS binaries from main-sequence (MS) stars plus NS binaries by establishing a model grid, but it is still unclear how these binaries consisting of MS stars and NS binaries came to be in the first place. Aims: We systematically study the formation of sdB+NS binaries from their original zero-age main-sequence progenitors. We bridge the gap left by our previous study in this way. We obtain the statistical population properties of sdB+NS binaries and provide some guidance for observational efforts. Methods: We first used Hurley's rapid binary evolution code BSE to evolve 10^7 primordial binaries to the point where the companions of NS+MS, NS+Hertzsprung gap (HG) star, and NS+Giant Branch (GB) star binaries have just filled their Roche lobes. Next, we injected these binaries into the model grid we developed in Paper I to obtain the properties of the sdB+NS populations. We adopted two prescriptions of NS natal kicks. Different values of common-envelope ejection efficiency were chosen to examine the effect of common-envelope evolution on the results. Conclusions: Most sdB+NS binaries are located in the Galactic disk with small RV semi-amplitudes. SdB+NS binaries with large RV semi-amplitudes are expected to be strong GWR sources, some of which could be detected by LISA in the future.

Bigelow [3] then proved the same representation to be faithful for all n by a beautiful topological argument. The present paper gives a different proof of the faithfulness for all n. We establish a relation between the Charney length in the braid group and exponents of t. A certain B_n-invariant subset of the module is constructed whose properties resemble those of convex cones.

description: To develop and cross-culturally validate the Ukrainian version of the ABILHAND-Kids questionnaire by testing its psychometric properties in a sample of Ukrainian children with cerebral palsy. The ABILHAND-Kids questionnaire was translated into Ukrainian, cross-culturally adapted, and administered to 113 parents of children with cerebral palsy. The psychometric properties of the Ukrainian version and its cross-cultural validation were investigated through the Rasch rating scale model. One major misfit has been found for the item “Rolling up a sleeve of a sweater” that further was removed. The item “Putting on a backpack/schoolbag” was split into gender-specific items, separately for girls and for boys, as it was systematically easier for Ukrainian girls. All remaining items contributed to the definition of a unidimensional measure of manual ability. The internal consistency reliability of the scale was high (R = 0.95). No significant floor (4%) and ceiling effects (5%) were observed. Three major differential item functioning items were found across Belgium and Ukraine, highlighting the need to use the Ukrainian calibration of ABILHAND-Kids in Ukraine. The Ukrainian ABILHAND-Kids questionnaire has good psychometric properties for assessing manual ability in Ukrainian children with cerebral palsy, holding potential to be implemented in clinical practice nationwide.Implications for rehabilitationCerebral palsy impairs manual ability leading to decreased quality of life and participation.Professionals need valid and reliable tools to detect small changes of manual ability during rehabilitation.Metric properties and availability of the Ukrainian version of the ABILHAND-Kids questionnaire make it a useful tool in the assessment of children with cerebral palsy.

title: Mechanisms and Factors Promoting Faithful Replication of Problematic Genomic Regions
Creators: name: Agashe, Sumedha
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2020

description: Natural Pausing Sites (NPSs) are complex genomic regions predisposed to fragility. Our lab previously uncovered that the Smc5/6 complex is critical for replication through NPSs. We hypothesized that Smc5/6 maintains NPS integrity by coupling replication fork pausing at different repeat elements with recombination and recombination intermediate resolution. The Sgs1-Top3-Rmi1 (STR) complex and Smc5/6 co-localize genome-wide in G2/M, and prevent accumulation of recombination structures at damaged forks. Here we use several genome-wide and locus-specific methods to investigate the mechanisms and factors involved in NPS metabolism. We find evidence that Smc5/6 collaborates tightly with STR and coordinates various resolvases at NPSs to support replication completion.

 Smc5/6 chromatin clusters overlap with the ones of Top3 and Rmi1 and are enriched at NPSs, where Smc5/6 facilitates Top3 retention. Further, we observe that Smc6 mutants that accumulate recombination intermediates at replication termination regions encode variants that bind less efficiently to NPSs. Both Smc5/6 dysfunction and STR depletion cause accumulation of recombination intermediates at stalled NPSs. A newly discovered intragenic mutation of smc6-56 restores Top3 binding but causes additivity with various sgs1 mutants, suggesting defects in other resolvases, possibly Mus81-Mms4. We further observe a role for Smc5/6, STR and DNA damage tolerance (DDT) pathways mediated by the polymerase clamp PCNA at topologically constrained regions along with Top2. We observe aggravated top2-4 temperature sensitivity for mutants of the above-mentioned factors, which is independent of Rad51 dependent recombination.

 Taken together, our results indicate a role for the STR complex in collaboration with Smc5/6 in NPS maintenance by resolving recombination intermediates to allow faithful segregation of these complex genomic regions. We further observe a role for STR, DDT and Smc5/6 along Top2 in facilitating resolution of topological stress before and during mitosis.

description: We study the anomalous dimension of the cusped Maldacena-Wilson line in planar $\mathcal{N} = 4$ Yang-Mills theory with scalar insertions using the Quantum Spectral Curve (QSC) method. In the straight line limit we interpret the excited states of the QSC as insertions of scalar operators coupled to the line. Such insertions were recently intensively studied in the context of the one-dimensional defect CFT. We compute a five-loop perturbative result analytically at weak coupling and the first four orders in the $1/\sqrtλ$ expansion at strong coupling, confirming all previous analytic results. In addition, we find the non-perturbative spectrum numerically and show that it interpolates smoothly between the weak and strong coupling predictions.

description: We present a study of the spatial coherence of the intergalactic medium toward two pairs of high-redshift quasars with moderate angular separations observed with Keck/ESI, Q1422+2309A/Q1424+2255 (z_em = 3.63, theta = 39") and Q1439-0034A/B (z_em = 4.25, theta = 33"). The crosscorrelation of transmitted flux in the Lyman-alpha forest shows a 5-7 sigma peak at zero velocity lag for both pairs. This strongly suggests that at least some of the absorbing structures span the 230-300/h_70 proper kpc transverse separation between sightlines. We also statistically examine the similarity between paired spectra as a function of transmitted flux, a measure which may be useful for comparison with numerical simulations. In investigating the dependence of the correlation functions on spectral characteristics, we find that photon noise has little impact for S/N >~ 10 per resolution element. However, the agreement between the autocorrelation along the line sight and the crosscorrelation between sightlines, a potential test of cosmological geometry, depends significantly on instrumental resolution. Finally, we present an inventory of metal lines. These include a a pair of strong C IV systems at z ~ 3.4 appearing only toward Q1439B, and a Mg II + Fe II system present toward Q1439 A and B at z = 1.68.

title: Molecular Regulation of Memory T Cell Differentiation and Function
Creators: name: Scamardella, Eloise
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2022

description: Memory T cells are largely heterogeneous. The molecular mechanisms at the basis of their effector functions are still under investigation. FACS-sorted memory T cell subsets exposed to TCR activation indicated that IRF8 is upregulated rapidly in all T cells, but its expression is rapidly lost, hence suggesting a role during the early stages of effector T cell programming. The aim of the first part of the work was to dissect the biological role of IRF8 in CD8+ T cells. I transferred Irf8-/- or Irf8+/+ CD8+ T cells in recipient WT mice, then infected those mice with LCMV. My results showed that Irf8 deficiency led to a faster transition towards memory phenotype after the acute phase. IRF8 silencing in human CD8+ T cells, followed by transcriptomic analysis, revealed a down regulation of effector related genes, accompanied by the upregulation of key memory TFs (FOXO1, MYB, TCF7). Accordingly, overexpressing IRF8 in primary human CD8+ T cells resulted in FOXO1 repression. ChIP sequencing, performed in IRF8-overexpressing Jurkat cells, identified a peak of IRF8 binding on FOXO1 promoter region. Taken together, I conclude that IRF8 restrains FOXO1 expression by binding directly to the chromatin.

 Adoptive T cell transfer immunotherapy benefits from early differentiated memory T cells capable to persist in the long term and to generate anti-tumour effectors. Cellular differentiation, metabolism and survival can be regulated by reactive oxygen species, but the mechanism is still poorly understood. I found that cellular antioxidant capacity is higher in human CD8+ T naïve (TN) cells compared to more differentiated memory T cell subsets. I expanded human CD8+ TN cells in vitro in the presence of ROS scavenger N-acetyl-cysteine (NAC) and found that limiting global ROS metabolism during TN cell activation hindered effector differentiation and enabled the generation of stem-like memory T cell precursors. I thus define a novel mechanism to generate potent T cell memory based on limiting ROS metabolism and propose to use NAC as suitable strategy to expand T cells for ACT immunotherapy.

Non-Relativistic Gravity and its Coupling to Matter

description: We study the non-relativistic expansion of general relativity coupled to matter. This is done by expanding the metric and matter fields analytically in powers of $1/c^2$ where $c$ is the speed of light. In order to perform this expansion it is shown to be very convenient to rewrite general relativity in terms of a timelike vielbein and a spatial metric. This expansion can be performed covariantly and off shell. We study the expansion of the Einstein-Hilbert action up to next-to-next-to-leading order. We couple this to different forms of matter: point particles, perfect fluids, scalar fields (including an off-shell derivation of the Schrödinger-Newton equation) and electrodynamics (both its electric and magnetic limits). We find that the role of matter is crucial in order to understand the properties of the Newton-Cartan geometry that emerges from the expansion of the metric. It turns out to be the matter that decides what type of clock form is allowed, i.e. whether we have absolute time or a global foliation of constant time hypersurfaces. We end by studying a variety of solutions of non-relativistic gravity coupled to perfect fluids. This includes the Schwarzschild geometry, the Tolman-Oppenheimer-Volkoff solution for a fluid star, the FLRW cosmological solutions and anti-de Sitter spacetimes.

A variety of clustering in $^{18}$O

description: We investigate excited states of $^{18}$O by using the antisymmetrized molecular dynamics. It is found that five different types of cluster states exist which we call ${}^{14}{\rm C}+α$, higher-nodal ${}^{14}{\rm C}+α$, two molecular states, and $4α$ linear-chain. The calculated $α$-decay widths are compared with the observed data. The higher-nodal ${}^{14}{\rm C}+α$ cluster states reasonably agree with resonances reported by the recent experiments. We predict that the $α$-particle emission is dominant for the ${}^{14}{\rm C}+α$ cluster states while the molecular states prefer the $^{6}$He emission.
title: Mapping Trends and Determinants of Under-Five Mortality at Sub-National Levels in Kenya: 1965 - 2015
Creators: name: Macharia, Peter Mwangi
Publisher: name: The Open University

description: All-cause under-five mortality (U5M) forms a key parameter for monitoring and planning of health strategies. Decision-makers need to understand subnational variations in U5M and its determinants to plan equitable and efficient service delivery. To improve our understanding of the variation in U5M and its determinants, the thesis estimates trends of U5M, its determinants and their association between 1965 and 2015 across 47 counties used for decision making in Kenya. Twenty household surveys and three censuses (1989-2015) were assembled and aligned to county boundaries. U5M was generated through cohort and period demographic techniques and smoothed via a Bayesian ecological spatio-temporal Gaussian process regression accounting for variation in sample size, demographic methods and spatio-temporal relatedness. The coverage/prevalence of 43 determinants was estimated using small-area estimation and model-based geostatistics approaches. Inequities, summary indices and progress in meeting health development goals were evaluated. Under-five lives saved or lost given the changes in determinants relative to 1993 were computed in a counter-factual framework based on a Bayesian ecological space-time mixed-effects regression model. Nationally, U5M reduced by 62% characterized by declines and reversal. At the county level, reductions were heterogeneous and inequitable ranging between 20% to 80%. Likewise, there was an uneven improvement in the coverage of interventions and reduction in infection prevalence with disadvantaged counties coinciding with high U5M areas. Development goals were sub-optimally achieved for both U5M and determinants. Nationally, U5M reversal in 1990s was associated with rising HIV infection and maternal autonomy decline. Post-2006, U5M decline was associated with a decline in HIV, malaria, stunting and improvement in sanitation, early breastfeeding, institutional delivery, treatment-seeking and maternal autonomy. Declining high parity and fully immunized children were associated with deterioration of U5M. Under-five lives saved or lost were heterogeneous across counties and over time. The results provide new insights to improve child survival for decentralized health planning in Kenya by prioritizing marginalized counties.

description: We present new results on up to $6^{th}$ order cumulants of net baryon-number fluctuations at small values of the baryon chemical potential, $μ_B$, obtained in lattice QCD calculations with physical values of light and strange quark masses. Representation of the Taylor expansions of higher order cumulants in terms of the ratio of the two lowest order cumulants, $M_B/σ_B^2=χ_1^B(T,μ_B)/χ_2^B(T,μ_B)$, allows for a parameter free comparison with data on net proton-number cumulants obtained by the STAR Collaboration in the Beam Energy Scan at RHIC. We show that recent high statistics data on skewness and kurtosis ratios of net proton-number distributions, obtained at beam energy $\sqrt{s_{_{NN}}}=54.4$ GeV, agree well with lattice QCD results on cumulants of net baryon-number fluctuations close to the pseudo-critical temperature, $T_{pc}(μ_B)$, for the chiral transition in QCD. We also present first results from a next-to-leading order expansion of $5^{th}$ and $6^{th}$ order cumulants on the line of pseudo-critical temperatures.
