Most mitochondrial matrix proteins are targeted to the organelle via an Nterminal presequence. Following import into the matrix, typically the presequence is cleaved by mitochondrial processing peptidase. For some matrix proteins, removal of a single N-terminal residue by intermediate cleaving peptidase 55 (scIcp55) is required to generate a mature protein. In yeast, the loss of scIcp55 generates immature matrix proteins that contain an exposed N-terminal hydrophobic residue (Y, F or L). This motif resembles a known degradation tag (N-degron) which facilitates protein turnover via a pathway known as the N-end rule. Lack of stability of these immature proteins in the mitochondrial matrix suggests the existence of a similar protein degradation pathway in mitochondria, which is potentially mediated by AAA+ proteases. However, to date neither is the protease(s) responsible for turnover of these proteins identified nor the existence of such a pathway in mammals known. In this study, human mitochondrial aminopeptidase P isoform 3 (hsAPP3m) was identified as a functional homolog of yeast Icp55. Depletion of hsAPP3m in human cells (coupled with a novel affinity chromatography method) permitted the identification of numerous putative N-end rule substrates in mitochondria. The ability of matrix AAA+ proteases to degrade model N-end rule substrates (both from yeast and humans) was examined. Interestingly, the presence of a single N-terminal hydrophobic residue on selected putative substrates enhanced the rate of turnover by hsLONM, suggesting that hsLONM is.. responsible for the turnover of immature proteins in mitochondria. Further dissection of the degron revealed that hsLONM-recognition was mediated by a bipartite signal composed of an N-terminal residue and a downstream hydrophobic motif. Interestingly, the spatial arrangement of this bipartite signal but not the identity of its N-terminal residue was critical for degradation by hsLONM. Nevertheless, hsLONM-mediated turnover of hsAPP3m substrates in vivo was not verified and requires further evaluation.

description: Tantalum, tantalum oxide and their hetero-interfaces are of tremendous technological interest in several applications spanning electronics, thermal management, catalysis and biochemistry. For example, local oxygen stoichiometry variation in TaOx memristors comprising of metallic (Ta) and insulating oxide (Ta2O5) have been shown to result in fast switching on the sub-nanosecond timescale over a billion cycles, relevant to neuromorphic computation. Despite its broad importance, an atomistic scale understanding of oxygen stoichiometry variation across Ta/TaOx hetero-interfaces, such as during early stages of oxidation and oxide growth, is not well understood. This is mainly due to the lack of a variable charge interatomic potential model for tantalum oxides that can accurately describe the ionic interactions in the metallic (Ta) and oxide (TaOx) environment as well as at their interfaces. To address this challenge, we introduce a charge transfer ionic potential (CTIP) model for Ta/Ta-oxide system by training against lattice parameters, cohesive energies, equations of state, and elastic properties of various experimentally observed Ta2O5 polymorphs. The best set of CTIP parameters are determined by employing a single-objective global optimization scheme driven by genetic algorithms followed by local Simplex optimization. Our newly developed CTIP potential accurately predicts structure, thermodynamics, energetic ordering of polymorphs, as well as elastic and surface properties of both Ta and Ta2O5, in excellent agreement with DFT calculations and experiments. We employ our newly parameterized CTIP potential to investigate the early stages of oxidation of Ta at different temperatures and atomic/molecular nature of the oxidizing species.
Biomass Power Plant in Brazil: a financial analysis using FINPLAN
Creators: name: Lima, Glaucus Rivera Santos
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: This study highlights the feasibility of establishing a Biomass Power Plant in Brazil using sugarcane bagasse. Positioned as a strategic initiative for a more sustainable energy matrix, the proposal aims to increase the country's electricity generation from sugarcane bagasse, considering that Brazil has a generation potential approximately three times higher than the production recorded in 2022 (4.7%).

Analysing three scenarios collectively, the study concludes that the proposed Biomass Power Plant implementation is financially viable when the UC exceeds 50%, EC surpasses 0.11 BRL/kWh and AFC remains below 13 million USD. These parameters lead to dividends exceeding 180 million USD, affirming the economic viability of the project.

However, for a successful transition, the Brazilian Government must institute credit lines with more accessible interest rates, recognizing the critical role this form of energy will play against the growing adoption of intermittent renewable sources. Beyond contributing to sustainability, the construction of power plants utilizing sugarcane bagasse biomass holds potential for reinforcing the reliability of the Brazilian electrical system.
Search for new physics in events with high jet multiplicity and low missing transverse momentum in proton-proton collisions at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV

description: A dedicated search is presented for new phenomena in inclusive eight- and ten-jet final states with low missing transverse momentum, with and without identification of jets originating from b quarks. The analysis is based on data from proton-proton collisions corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.6 inverse femtobarns collected with the CMS detector at the LHC at sqrt(s) = 8 TeV. The dominant multijet background expectations are obtained from low jet multiplicity control samples. Data agree well with the standard model background predictions, and limits are set in several benchmark models. Colorons (axigluons) with masses between 0.6 and 0.75 (up to 1.15) TeV are excluded at 95% confidence level. Similar exclusion limits for gluinos in R-parity violating supersymmetric scenarios are from 0.6 up to 1.1 TeV. These results comprise the first experimental probe of the coloron and axigluon models in multijet final states.

Language, culture and approaches to studying: towards a more comprehensive 3P Model; a cross-cultural study of the 3P Model in university students
Creators: name: Thong, Matthew Keen Shui
Publisher: name: Monash University
Year: 2017
Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Background: Language and culture are constructs that are difficult to quantify and measure; moreover, their effects on the process of learning and academic achievement can be difficult to determine. This thesis examined their effects using the theoretical framework of the Presage-Process-Product (3P) Model. The 3P Model allows the effects of various ‘presage’ factors on the ‘product’ of academic achievement to be mediated by the ‘process’ of approaches to learning. Aims: This thesis aimed to identify presage factors that measure those aspects of language and culture most salient to the learning process, and incorporate these presage factors into the 3P Model alongside self-efficacy and self-regulated learning, which have typically been considered separately from the 3P Model. The presage factors thus identified were language (proficiency, preference, use and experience) and conceptions of learning. Methods and Participants: An online survey was administered to 186 undergraduates enrolled in a first-year psychology unit. There were 177 participants enrolled at the Australian campuses of the university (165 domestic and 12 international students) and 9 participants from the Malaysia campus of the university. The sample ranged in age from 18-23 years (M = 19.21, SD = 1.21), with 36 males and 150 females. Various statistical techniques were employed to assess the 3P Model. Results: The cohort displayed a mixed pattern of transformative and reproductive conceptions of learning, as well as a mixture of deep and surface learning approaches, indicating a strategic or achievement-motivated approach to learning. English language scores did not predict deep approaches or achievement. Contrary to previous research showing that deep approaches lead to higher achievement than surface approaches, it was found that neither predicted achievement. Rather, self-efficacy was the only direct predictor of achievement. Conclusions: The deep-surface dichotomy of the 3P Model does not discriminate between high and low achievers. Instead, self-efficacy and the strategic approach are important predictors of achievement. The results have implications for how students are taught at university, and how course and assessment structures may be changed to encourage deeper learning.

description: In the last decade, there has been remarkable progress on the practical integration of on-chip quantum photonic devices yet quantum state generators remain an outstanding challenge. Simultaneously, the quantum-dot photonic-crystal-resonator platform has demonstrated a versatility for creating nonclassical light with tunable quantum statistics, thanks to a newly discovered self-homodyning interferometric effect that preferentially selects the quantum light over the classical light when using an optimally tuned Fano resonance. In this work, we propose a general structure for the cavity quantum electrodynamical generation of quantum states from a waveguide-integrated version of the quantum-dot photonic-crystal-resonator platform, which is specifically tailored for preferential quantum state transmission. We support our results with rigorous Finite-Difference Time-Domain and quantum optical simulations, and show how our proposed device can serve as a robust generator of highly pure single- and even multi-photon states.

description: Empirical investor networks (EIN) proposed by \cite{Ozsoylev-Walden-Yavuz-Bildik-2014-RFS} are assumed to capture the information spreading path among investors. Here, we perform a comparative analysis between the EIN and the cellphone communication networks (CN) to test whether EIN is an information exchanging network from the perspective of the layer structures of ego networks. We employ two clustering algorithms ($k$-means algorithm and $H/T$ break algorithm) to detect the layer structures for each node in both networks. We find that the nodes in both networks can be clustered into two groups, one that has a layer structure similar to the theoretical Dunbar Circle corresponding to that the alters in ego networks exhibit a four-layer hierarchical structure with the cumulative number of 5, 15, 50 and 150 from the inner layer to the outer layer, and the other one having an additional inner layer with about 2 alters compared with the Dunbar Circle. We also find that the scale ratios, which are estimated based on the unique parameters in the theoretical model of layer structures \citep{Tamarit-Cuesta-Dunbar-Sanchez-2018-PNAS}, conform to a log-normal distribution for both networks. Our results not only deepen our understanding on the topological structures of EIN, but also provide empirical evidence of the channels of information diffusion among investors.

description: We propose a simple analytic fit for the power spectrum of scalar (curvature) perturbations during inflation, in order to describe slow roll of inflaton and formation of primordial black holes in the early universe, in the framework of single-field models. Our fit is given by a sum of the power spectrum in the slow-roll approximation, needed for a viable description of the cosmic microwave background radiation in agreement with Planck/BICEP/Keck measurements, and the log-normal (Gaussian) fit for the power spectrum enhancement (peak) needed for efficient production of primordial black holes. We use the T-type $α$-attractor models in order to describe slow-roll inflation. Demanding the location and height of the peak to yield the masses of primordial black holes in the asteroid-size window allowed for the whole (current) dark matter to be composed of the primordial black holes, we find the restrictions on the remaining parameters and, most notably, on the width of the peak.

description: It is still an outstanding challenge to characterize and understand the topological features of strongly interacting states such as bound-states in interacting quantum systems. Here, by introducing a cotranslational symmetry in an interacting multi-particle quantum system, we systematically develop a method to define a Chern invariant, which is a generalization of the well-known Thouless-Kohmoto-Nightingale-den Nijs invariant, for identifying strongly interacting topological states. As an example, we study the topological multi-magnon states in a generalized Heisenberg XXZ model, which can be realized by the currently available experiment techniques of cold atoms [Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{111}, 185301 (2013); Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{111}, 185302 (2013)]. Through calculating the two-magnon excitation spectrum and the defined Chern number, we explore the emergence of topological edge bound-states and give their topological phase diagram. We also analytically derive an effective single-particle Hofstadter superlattice model for a better understanding of the topological bound-states. Our results not only provide a new approach to defining a topological invariant for interacting multi-particle systems, but also give insights into the characterization and understanding of strongly interacting topological states.

description: This paper constructs a global economic policy uncertainty index through the principal component analysis of the economic policy uncertainty indices for twenty primary economies around the world. We find that the PCA-based global economic policy uncertainty index is a good proxy for the economic policy uncertainty on a global scale, which is quite consistent with the GDP-weighted global economic policy uncertainty index. The PCA-based economic policy uncertainty index is found to be positively related with the volatility and correlation of the global financial market, which indicates that the stocks are more volatile and correlated when the global economic policy uncertainty is higher. The PCA-based global economic policy uncertainty index performs slightly better because the relationship between the PCA-based uncertainty and market volatility and correlation is more significant.

description: In any bosonic lattice system, which is not dominated by local interactions and thus "frozen" in a Mott-type state, numerical methods have to cope with the infinite size of the corresponding Hilbert space even for finite lattice sizes. While it is common practice to restrict the local occupation number basis to $N_c$ lowest occupied states, the presence of a finite condensate fraction requires the complete number basis for an exact representation of the many-body ground state. In this work we present a novel truncation scheme to account for contributions from higher number states. By simply adding a single \textit{coherent-tail} state to this common truncation, we demonstrate increased numerical accuracy and the possible increase in numerical efficiency of this method for the Gutzwiller variational wave function and within dynamical mean-field theory.

description: Insalubridad publica y mortalidad infantil en Cartagena, 1925 – 1930, es una investigación histórica que da cuenta de algunos procesos importantes que comenzaron a marcar el desarrollo de esta ciudad, específicamente en el aspecto político y ciertos detalles en el económico. al mismo tiempo, de cómo dicho desarrollo en muchos de los casos se veía alterado por ciertas necesidades y problemas, entre ellos los centros urbanos importantes carecían de servicios públicos básicos: agua potable, alcantarillado, energía eléctrica, mataderos públicos, plazas de mercado y servicios asistenciales. Los bajos ingresos, el pobre nivel educativo, los hábitos alimentarios y de higiene, las endemias y las enfermedades infecciosas y parasitarias, entre otras patologías, daban cuenta de los elevados índices de mortalidad general e infantil de la época. Entre las tres primeras décadas del siglo XX en Cartagena, la precariedad del abastecimiento de agua en Cartagena, constituyo no solo un factor de insalubridad urbana, sino también un elemento de diferenciación social. En el periodo mencionado las autoridades locales y el gobierno municipal y departamental no lograron resolver el problema de suministro de agua potable a la creciente población, solo cumplieron parcialmente con su deber. La mortalidad infantil siempre fue una de las mayores problemáticas que enfrentaron las autoridades nacionales, pues los niños se morían como moscas. Tanto los malos hábitos de higiene como la adulteración de la leche, tuvieron sus repercusiones. E n la ciudad de Cartagena era común debido a la alta pobreza encontrar calles que se convertían en verdaderos lodazales cuando llovía. En muchos de sus barrios los cerdos, los burros y demás animales domésticos todavía compartían el espacio domestico, se revolcaban en los charcos de fango. Durante el 7 verano, las calles eran polvorientas y resecas, y el aire se llenaba de polvo. Las gentes sacudían esteras y tapices, arrojaban basuras en la vía pública. Nadie recogía el estiércol de los animales. Es decir, los espacios urbanos estaban completamente descuidados y en total estado de abandono. La investigación se estructuró en dos capítulos: en el primero se analiza el contexto general de la insalubridad publica, se presenta un marco comparativo con otras ciudad como Medellín, Bogotá y Barranquilla, y como algunos de los factores de la insalubridad publica incidieron en el desarrollo del fenómeno de la mortalidad infantil en Cartagena, como las enfermedades, el problema del agua y la falta de un acueducto que abasteciera a la ciudad. En el segundo capitulo se explora sobre las consecuencias que trajo consigo el fenómeno de la mortalidad infantil como fue el descenso demográfico y la creación de instituciones sociales como la Gota de Leche y las Casas Cunas.

description: With the advent of PW class lasers, the very large laser intensities attainable on-target should enable the production of intense high order Doppler harmonics from relativistic laser-plasma mirrors interactions. At present, the modeling of these harmonics with Particle-In-Cell (PIC) codes is extremely challenging as it implies an accurate description of tens of harmonic orders on a a broad range of angles. In particular, we show here that standard Finite Difference Time Domain (FDTD) Maxwell solvers used in most PIC codes partly fail to model Doppler harmonic generation because they induce numerical dispersion of electromagnetic waves in vacuum which is responsible for a spurious angular deviation of harmonic beams. This effect was extensively studied and a simple toy-model based on Snell-Descartes law was developed that allows us to finely predict the angular deviation of harmonics depending on the spatio-temporal resolution and the Maxwell solver used in the simulations. Our model demonstrates that the mitigation of this numerical artifact with FDTD solvers mandates very high spatio-temporal resolution preventing doing realistic 3D simulations. We finally show that non dispersive pseudo-spectral analytical time domain solvers can considerably reduce the spatio-temporal resolution required to mitigate this spurious deviation and should enable in the the near future 3D accurate modeling on supercomputers in a realistic time-to-solution.

description: Most water related construction projects in Ethiopia frequently face cost overrun and time delay. The objective of this study is to identify the major causes of cost overrun and time delay and thus help in avoiding them by identifying measures that should be undertaken in project management using a questionnaire. And this survey shows the client projects personnel perspective. The survey questionnaire constitutes a collection of thirty six(36) causes found in the literature, classified into two(2) groups namely cost overrun and time delay causing factors. The questionnaire were answered by thirteen (13) purposely selected SDG program office personnel and horizontal program office horizontal officers which involved with all the SDG program projects implemented from July 2008 E.C. to February 2010 E.C time duration. The respondents are requested to rate the thirty six(36) causes identified from literature review, add if there is any additional causes that are not included in the questionnaire and measures to be taken to manage the causes. Here the Relative Importance index (RII) method is used to rate according to their importance of each causing factors listed in the questionnaire after the data reliability is checked. According to this study Design change, scope change, ineffective project monitoring, and ineffective program management are the major time delay causing factors. And original estimate and budgeting, design changes/iteration, inadequate availability of skilled resource and location or/and connectivity of project site are the major cost overrun causing factors. Lastly the study identifies six area of project to be dealt to manage or control the effect of cost overrun and time delay. These are project scoping & planning, project monitoring & control, program office projects management, capacity building, project communication and risk management

description: We investigate the propagation of local bipartite quantum correlations, along with the tripartite mutual information to characterize the information scrambling through dynamical evolution of spin chains. Starting from an initial state with the first pair of spins in a Bell state, we study how quantum correlations spread to other parts of the system, using different representative spin Hamiltonians, viz. the Heisenberg Model, a spin-conserving model, the transverse-field XY model, a non-conserving but integrable model, and the kicked Harper model, a spin conserving but nonintegrable model. We show that the local correlations spread consistently in the case of spin-conserving dynamics in both integrable and nonintegrable cases, with a strictly nonnegative tripartite mutual information. In contrast, in the case of non-conserving dynamics, tripartite mutual information is negative and local pair correlations do not propagate.
