description: Additional file 4: Supplementary figures. Figure S1: position of PMS markers within recombination tracts. Each row corresponds to a single recombination event and each vertical segment depicts a marker involved in such an event. Markers where PMS occurred are shown as larger red segments. Indel markers are shown as rectangles instead of segments. Vertical axis labels give tetrad, chromosome, and first base of the recombination event. For the event wt_7 chr06:74792, also depicted in Figure 2b, only one conversion tract is shown. Figure S2: PMS tends to occur at the ends of conversion tracts. The figure shows the degree to which there is overrepresentation of events with PMS markers exactly at one end or the other of the conversion tract. In 1,000 simulations, the fraction of recombination events with one or more terminal PMS markers was recorded (see Materials and methods). The histogram shows the distribution of these fractions; the blue vertical line shows the observed fraction of events with terminal PMS events. Figure S3: Events where more than one PMS marker was observed. Four recombination events had more than one marker where PMS occurred. Two of these events are depicted in Figure 2 in the main text and the other two are illustrated here: (a) a CO in chromosome II; and (b) a NCO in chromosome IX. As in Figure 2, red/blue vertical segments represent markers with the S288c/YJM789 genotype along the chromosomes of the two mother and daughter cells resulting from the first mitosis of each spore (A, B, C and D). Horizontal black lines indicate inferred NCOs, and the diagonal, inferred COs. Green vertical segments immediately on top of the coordinate axis denote markers where PMS occurred and orange segments denote markers with non-Mendelian segregation. Figure S4: SNP distribution along gene conversion tracts. For each recombination interval, markers were assigned to the fraction of the interval they spanned. For example, in a one-marker interval, the one and only marker was assigned to the full range from 0% to 100%; for a three marker interval, the first marker was assigned to 0% to 33%, the second to 33% to 66%, and the third to 66% to 100%, and so on. Non-SNP markers were ignored. The frequency with which any position corresponded to a particular SNP type was then computed over the full range of 0% to 100%. No SNP type appears to show positional bias. (PDF 1 MB)

description: Quantum theory of surface plasmons is very important for studying the interactions between light and different metal nanostructures in nanoplasmonics. In this work, using the canonical quantization method, the SPPs on nanowires and their orbital and spin angular momentum are investigated. The results show that the SPPs on nanowire carry both orbital and spin momentum during propagation. Later, the result is applied on the plasmonic nanowire waveguide to show the agreement of the theory. The study is helpful for the nano wire based plasmonic interactions and the quantum information based optical circuit in the future.

description: We present ATCA radio observations of the giant radio galaxy J0116-473 at 12 and 22 cm wavelengths in total intensity and polarization. The images clearly reveal a bright inner-double structure within more extended edge-brightened lobe emission. The lack of hotspots at the ends of the outer lobes, the strong core and the inner-double structure with its edge-brightened morphology lead us to suggest that this giant radio galaxy is undergoing a renewed nuclear activity: J0116-473 appears to be a striking example of a radio galaxy where a young double source is evolving within older lobe material. We also report the detection of a Mpc-long linear feature which is oriented perpendicular to the radio axis and has a high fractional polarization.

description: To implement an efficient policy of the development of rural areas it is necessary to measure and evaluate processes occurring on farms. The paper is an attempt at evaluating the advancement (intensity) of the disagrarization process from a production and economic perspective at a sub-regional (local) level. Constructing a synthetic disagrarization rate, three variables were employed explaining: a percentage rate of households with an owner of a farm that do not earn income from agricultural activities, the share of land being in a poor agricultural condition in the area of arable land on farms and the livestock stocking density. Calculations made confirmed greater advancement of the phenomenon of disagrarization on the areas characterized by fragmented agrarian structure. The following sub-regions are characterised by the highest intensity of production and economic disagrarization: the Częstochowa, Sosnowiec, Kielce, Oświęcim, Bielsko--Biała and Rzeszów sub-regions.

description: The encoding of an inflating patch of space-time in terms of a dual theory is discussed. Following Bousso's interpretation of the holographic principle, we find that those are generically described not by states in the dual theory but by density matrices. We try to implement this idea on simple deformations of the AdS/CFT examples, and an argument is given as to why inflation is so elusive to string theory.

description: Within the broadly defined field of human communication an important aspect is related to the teacher-students interactions. The character of these interactions may decisively determine students’ achievements. The opinion on the transactional nature of the interaction requires the individuals organising the education process to deconstruct the paradigm on the unidirectional process of human communication and to contribute to the creation of conditions promoting reciprocity of interactions. This paper presents the contemporary concept of communication and the term “interaction” was analysed using respective examples given in literature on the subject. Moreover, results of studies describing the nature of teacher-students interactions are presented and key factors determining their course are characterised.

description: This research assesses whether the recent public and private efforts to improve farmer’s access to mechanical power in Ghana, have had their intended effects on the country’s agricultural sector. Using panel survey data, this paper analyzes the impacts of mechanization on cropland expansion and farming system intensification in Northern Ghana. Findings show a positive correlation between farm mechanization and cropland expansion during the survey period. However, there was no evidence of increasing farm input use with the use of tractors. Indeed, findings seem to suggest an inverse relationship between mechanization and farm intensification. We conclude that tractorization is unlikely to foster farm input intensification in regions such as Northern Ghana where farmlands are still abundant.
Old and new results on multicritical points

description: Thirty years after the Liu-Fisher paper on the {\bf bicritical} and {\bf tetracritical} points in quantum lattice gases, these multicritical points continue to appear in a variety of new physical contexts. This paper reviews some recent multicritical phase diagrams, which involve e. g. high-$T_c$ superconductivity and various magnetic phases which may (or may not) coexist with it. One recent example concerns the SO(5) theory, which combines the 3-component antiferromagnetic and the 2-component superconducting order parameters. There, the competition between the isotropic, biconical and decoupled fixed points yields bicritical or tetracritical points. Recalling old results on the subject, it is shown that the {\bf decoupled} fixed point is stable, implying a {\bf tetracritical} point, contrary to recent claims, which are critically discussed. Other examples, concerning e. g. the superconducting versus charge and spin density wave phases are also discussed briefly. In all cases, extensions of old results can be used to correct new claims.

description: The great emptiness is a possible beginning of the Universe in the infinite past of physical time. For the epoch of great emptiness particles are extremely rare and effectively massless. Only expectation values of fields and average fluctuations characterize the lightlike vacuum of this empty Universe. The physical content of the early stages of standard inflationary cosmological models is the lightlike vacuum. Towards the beginning, the Universe is almost scale invariant. This is best seen by an appropriate choice of the metric field -- the primordial flat frame -- for which the beginning of a homogeneous metric is flat Minkowski space. We suggest that our observed inhomogeneous Universe can evolve from the lightlike vacuum in the infinite past, and therefore can have lasted eternally. Then no physical big bang singularity is present.

description: In 2015, the needs of hundreds of thousands of refugees who arrived in Germany could only be met by deploying all available civil protection units. This article presents procedures and practices of state and non-state formal actors in the field of civil protection and related crisis management structures implemented and established across the board in the municipalities, the Federal Government and mass shelters, in particular in Bavaria. From a disaster research and humanitarian studies perspective we use the concept of “patterns of interpretation” to analyse the application of the “humanitarian emergency” and the “disaster situation” procedures to discuss whether the situation can really be categorized as “either-or” or whether the coexistence of the two served a function in managing such a complex situation. Finally, we discuss some developments that occurred after 2015/16 and consider the extent to which these developments shift or expand the existing patterns of interpretation.
Detection and characterisation of colo rectal polyps

Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2020

description: Colonoscopy remains the gold standard for detection and resection of premalignant colo rectal polyps. The introduction reviews the literature on polyp detection and characterisation of colorectal polyps at colonoscopy. It describes how advanced technology could help to reduce polyp miss rates. The significance of small colo rectal polyps is reviewed and the developments of colonoscopic techniques to characterise polyps considered. First study examined the proportion of missed colorectal polyps at screening colonoscopies. It forms the platform for the subsequent studies to explore the ways the polyp detection could be improved. Three studies evaluated detection of polyps: Two studies, one of them was a pre-clinical study showed improvements in polyp detection with novel wide angle colonoscopes and a disposable distal attachment (Endocuff). Other study which assessed the role of careful inspection during insertion at screening flexible sigmoidoscopy, did not demonstrate any improvements in polyp detection. A cohort study described that how a novel efficiency marker could be utilised to compare the efficiency novel colonoscopy interventions. An image evaluation study explored the application of well validated classification of an electronic chromoendoscopy to other novel imaging modalities. Other two studies assessed the barriers in implementing optical diagnosis in routine clinical practice. A retrospective study assessed the prevalence of sessile serrated polyps in recto sigmoid colon in order to implement ‘detect and disregard’ policy for hyperplastic polyps in the region. Lastly, the learning curve of optical diagnosis in trainees was evaluated. It showed that the application of cumulative summation monitoring of the performance could be used to quality assure trainees performance of optical diagnosis.

description: Road accident statistics are collected from information about personal injury road accidents and their consequent casualties, to a common national standard. The aim of collecting and publishing national road accident statistics is to inform public debate and to provide the basis for determining and monitoring effective road safety policies to reduce the road accident casualty toll. They are an essential requirement for monitoring targeted reductions in road accident casualties. The credible monitoring of targeted reductions requires that data are reported consistently and accurately, and both national and local government, and local reporting police forces, work closely to achieve a common reporting standard.

Users should note that for 1985-1991, and from 2002 onwards, the Vehicle Record file does not contain breath test data. This change has been made in order to protect confidentiality.

description: We have analyzed JHKL observations of the stellar population of the ~9 Myr-old eta Chamaeleontis cluster. Using infrared (IR) colour-colour and colour-excess diagrams, we find the fraction of stellar systems with near-IR excess emission is 0.60 pm 0.13 (2_sigma). This results implies considerably longer disc lifetimes than found in some recent studies of other young stellar clusters. For the classical T Tauri (CTT) and weak-lined T Tauri (WTT) star population, we also find a strong correlation between the IR excess and H_alpha emission. The IR excesses of these stars indicate a wide range of star-disc activity; from a CTT star showing high levels of accretion, to CTT - WTT transition objects with evidence for some on-going accretion, and WTT stars with weak or absent IR excesses. Of the 15 known cluster members, 4 stars with IR excesses delta(K-L) > 0.4 mag are likely experiencing on-going accretion owing to strong or variable optical emission. The resulting accretion fraction (0.27 pm 0.13; 2_sigma) shows that the accretion phase, in addition to the discs themselves, can endure for at least ~10 Myr.

Measurements of the CP properties of the Higgs boson couplings to tau leptons and top quarks with the CMS experiment
Creators: name: Dow, Albert Kenneth
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2020

description: Measurements of the CP structure of the Higgs boson coupling to tau leptons and top quarks using data collected at the CMS experiment during 2016, 2017 and 2018 are presented. The dataset corresponds to a total integrated luminosity of 137 fb-1 at a centre-of-mass energy of 13 TeV. For these measurements, events with two tau-leptons in the final state are selected. The effective CP mixing angle for the Higgs boson to top quark coupling is measured to be -5+36-37 degrees. The measurement of the CP mixing angle in the tau decays reports a value of 4+-17 degrees, which is the first direct measurement of CP properties of the Higgs boson coupling to a pair of tau-leptons. Both results are compatible with standard model expectations.

description: By introducing biquadratic together with usual bilinear ferromagnetic nearest neighbor exchange interaction in a square lattice, we find that the energy of the spin-wave mode is minimized at a finite wavevector for a vanishingly small Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction (DMI), supporting a ground state with spin-spiral structure whose pitch length is unusually short as found in some of the experiments. Apart from reproducing the magnetic structures that can be obtained in a canonical model with nearest neighbor exchange interaction only, a numerical simulation of this model with further introduction of magnetic anisotropy and magnetic field predicts many other magnetic structures some of which are already observed in the experiments. Amongst many observed structures, nanoscale skyrmion even at vanishingly small DMI is found for the first time in a model. The model provides the nanoscale skyrmions of unit topological charge at zero magnetic field as well. We obtain phase diagrams for all the magnetic structures predicted in the model.

description: Understanding the fundamental sensitivity limit of an optical sensor requires a full quantum mechanical description of the sensing task. In this work, we calculate the fundamental (quantum) limit for discriminating between pure laser light and thermal noise in a photon-starved regime. The Helstrom bound for discrimination error probability for single mode measurement is computed along with error probability bounds for direct detection, coherent homodyne detection and the Kennedy receiver. A generalized Kennedy (GK) receiver is shown to closely approach the Helstrom limit. We present an experimental demonstration of this sensing task and demonstrate $15.4$ dB improvement in discrimination sensitivity over direct detection using a GK receiver, and an improvement of $19.4\%$ in error probability over coherent detection.

Type (lectotype, first-step designated by Norman 2000: 84):— ARGENTINA. Jujuy: Quinta, Laguna de la Brea, 31 May 1901, R. E. Fries 43 (S!, two sheets; second-step lectotype, here designated S No. S-R-751! [digital image], isolectotype S No. 09-43531! [digital image]).
Notes:—The protologue of this species stated: “…Gegend von Sierra Sta. Barbara (in nördlichen Argentinien)…” [area of Sierra Sta. Barbara (in northern Argentina)]. Norman (2000: 84) designated a collection Fries 43, from Laguna La Brea, as lectotype which belongs within Sta. Barbara department, so it is a suitable choice.
In S herbarium two duplicate specimens exist with the number Fries 43 (S-R-751 and S 09-43531), so that Norman’s designation can be considered as a first-step typification (Art. 9.17, Ex. 12 of the ICN, McNeill et al. 2012). One of them has a label by Norman that reads: “ holotype ”, and the other has a label that reads “ isotype ”. Other things being equal (e.g. the quality of the specimens), even if Norman’s annotations on the specimens have no binding effect (see Art. 7.9 of the ICN, McNeill et al. 2012), the specimen annotated as “ holotype ” by Norman is here designated in a second-step-typification, and the one that reads isotype becomes an isolectotype.

description: This article estimates the impact of transaction costs on smallholders’ market participation and integration, using the data collected in two apple production belts of China. Based on an innovative measurement of the transaction costs, and a disaggregated analysis on sales costs, information costs, negotiation costs and monitoring costs. The study shows that levels of the farmers’ market participation are mainly determined by the proportional transaction costs and price, while their market integration depends on the fixed transaction costs and price. This suggests that, in order to lower the transaction costs and enable specialization and market participation, it is necessary to invest and construct the farming infrastructure, update the rural information system, improve the structure of farmer households, and subsidize the cooperative organizations.

description: Using a mixed input-output framework, this study examined potential changes in sector output and water requirements at national level in Macedonia arising from climate change. By defining three climate change scenarios and exogenously specifying the warming shocks for five key agricultural sub-sectors, the direct and indirect effects on the economy in terms of output and water demand were quantified. In general, the results indicated that except for cereals and grapes, agricultural production would benefit from the low climate change scenario, while there would be negligible effects on the rest of the economy. In contrast, the medium and high climate change scenarios would most likely negatively affect agriculture, with severe losses in grape, apple and cereal production, but again with low effects on other economic sectors. These results on the potential economic and physical impacts of climate change can help decision makers formulate future adaptation measures for the Macedonian agriculture sector.
The effects of gap junction coupling and fibrosis on the mechanism and electrophenotype of myocardial fibrillation
Creators: name: Handa, Balvinder Singh
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2020

description: This thesis aimed to determine the mechanisms that sustain ventricular fibrillation (VF) and their modulation by two important electroarchitectural components, the pattern and degree of fibrosis and gap junction (GJ) coupling. The mechanisms that maintain myocardial fibrillation remain debated. Conflicting data exists supporting critical areas sustaining rotational drivers (RDs) and disorganised multiple wavelet driven activation. Abnormal GJ coupling and ventricular fibrosis are implicated in VF initiation and maintenance. VF mechanisms were studied with optical mapping of the transmembrane potentials in ex vivo perfused rat hearts that underwent pharmacological modulation of GJ coupling and separately in hearts that had differing patterns of chronic myocardial fibrosis induced. Enhanced GJ coupling progressively organised VF in a concentration-dependent manner and stabilised RDs, whilst GJ uncoupling progressively disorganised VF. Disorganised multiple wavelet activity sustained VF in compact fibrosis, whilst VF in patchy fibrosis was organised and harboured long duration spatially stable RDs, with diffuse fibrosis exhibiting an intermediate VF phenotype. By utilising ex vivo rat VF optical mapping data, Granger causality (GC), an econometric tool for quantifying causal relationships between complex time-series, was developed as a novel fibrillation mapping tool. GC-based mapping tools were validated, adapted for low spatial resolution multisite-mapping and tested in human VF optical mapping of left ventricular wedge preparations and in vivo human persistent AF mapping, where they showed a similar range of fibrillatory organisation and mechanisms as in rat VF. These findings support the existence of differing fibrillation electrophenotypes, along a continuous spectrum between globally organised fibrillation driven by stable RDs and disorganised fibrillation driven by multiple wavelets, influenced by fibrosis and GJ coupling. This work provides a unifying explanation for hitherto conflicting reports on mechanisms sustaining myocardial fibrillation and suggests that mechanism-directed treatment strategies based on the fibrillation electrophenotype may be more effective than standard empirical treatment approaches.

Conformal mechanics on rotating Bertotti-Robinson spacetime

description: We investigate conformal mechanics associated with the rotating Bertotti-Robinson (RBR) geometry found recently as the near-horizon limit of the extremal rotating Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton-axion black holes. The solution breaks the $SL(2,R)\times SO(3)$ symmetry of Bertotti-Robinson (BR) spacetime to $SL(2,R)\times U(1)$ and breaks supersymmetry in the sense of $N=4, d=4$ supergravity as well. However, it shares with BR such properties as confinement of timelike geodesics and discreteness of the energy of test fields on the geodesically complete manifold. Conformal mechanics governing the radial geodesic motion coincides with that for a charged particle in the BR background (a relativistic version of the De Alfaro-Fubini-Furlan model), with the azimuthal momentum playing the role of a charge. Similarly to the BR case, the transition from Poincaré to global coordinates leads to a redefinition of the Hamiltonian making the energy spectrum discrete. Although the metric does not split into a product space even asymptotically, it still admits an infinite-dimensional extension of $SL(2,R)$ as asymptotic symmetry. The latter is shown to be given by the product of one copy of the Virasoro algebra and U(1), the same being valid for the extremal Kerr throat.

Radiation drag effects on magnetically dominated outflows around compact objects

description: The effects of radiation drag force on the structure of relativistic electron-positron and electron-proton outflows are considered within the one-fluid approximation for quasi-monopole cold outflow. It is shown that for a Poynting-dominated case the drag force does not change the particle energy inside the fast magnetosonic surface. In this region the action of the drag results in a diminishing of the Poynting flux, not the particle flux. Outside the fast magnetosonic surface, for intermediate photon density the drag force may result in additional acceleration of the plasma. This acceleration is a result of the disturbance of magnetic surfaces under the action of the drag. At even larger distances particles are not frozen into the magnetic field and the drag force decelerates them efficiently. In the case of extreme photon densities, the disturbance of magnetic surfaces becomes large and the drag force changes the total energy flux significantly, the particles becoming nonrelativistic. We find that for Active Galactic Nuclei the photon density is too low to disturb the parameters of an ideal MHD outflow. The drag action may result in additional acceleration of outgoing plasma only for central engines with very high luminosities. For cosmological gamma-ray bursts the drag force can strongly affect the process of formation of a Poynting-dominated outflow.

description: KAGRA is the first large-scale gravitational-wave detector with cryogenic test masses. Its target sensitivity is limited mostly by quantum noise in the observation frequency band owing to the remarkable reduction of thermal noise at cryogenic temperatures. It is thus essential to reduce quantum noise, and KAGRA is designed to implement two quantum noise reduction techniques. KAGRA has already started considering an upgrade plan, in which a few more new quantum noise reduction techniques will be incorporated. In this article, we report the currently implemented quantum noise reduction techniques for KAGRA and those that will be implemented in the near future.

Transient mixed lubrication modelling of human knee implants
Creators: name: Butt, Hamza Asif
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2020

description: The human knee implant is computationally modelled in the mixed lubrication regime in order to investigate the tribological performance of the implant. This model includes the complex geometry of the implant components, unlike elliptical contact models that approximate this geometry. Film thickness and pressure results are presented for a range of gait cycles in order to determine the lubrication regime present within the implant during its operation. It was found that it was possible for the lubrication regime to span between elastohydrodynamic, mixed and boundary lubrication depending on the operating conditions of the implant. It was observed that the tribological conditions present in one condyle were not necessarily representative of the other. Multiple points of contact were found within the same condyle, which cannot be computed by elliptical contact solvers. The effect of the complex geometry was further apparent when the alignment of the geometry was shifted slightly, resulting in significantly different results. This model can balance forces in all directions, instead of only the normal loads, as often done in elliptical contact models. The computational intensity of simulating the complex geometry of the knee implant is compared with an elliptical contact model and the limitations of elliptical contact models are discussed. This work is an initial step towards understanding the role of the complex geometry in the tribological characteristics of the human knee implant when operating in physiological conditions.
The Low-Temperature Fate of the 0.7 Structure in a Point Contact: A Kondo-like Correlated State in an Open System

description: Besides the usual conductance plateaus at multiples of 2e2/h, quantum point contacts typically show an extra plateau at ~ 0.7(2e2/h), believed to arise from electron-electron interactions that prohibit the two spin channels from being simultaneously occupied. We present evidence that the disappearance of the 0.7 structure at very low temperature signals the formation of a Kondo-like correlated spin state. Evidence includes a zero-bias conductance peak that splits in a parallel field, scaling of conductance to a modified Kondo form, and consistency between peak width and the Kondo temperature.
Bayesian models for prediction of the set-difference in volleyball

description: The aim of this paper is to study and develop Bayesian models for the analysis of volleyball match outcomes as recorded by the set-difference. Due to the peculiarity of the outcome variable (set-difference) which takes discrete values from $-3$ to $3$, we cannot consider standard models based on the usual Poisson or binomial assumptions used for other sports such as football/soccer. Hence, the first and foremost challenge was to build models appropriate for the set-differences of each volleyball match. Here we consider two major approaches: a) an ordered multinomial logistic regression model and b) a model based on a truncated version of the Skellam distribution. For the first model, we consider the set-difference as an ordinal response variable within the framework of multinomial logistic regression models. Concerning the second model, we adjust the Skellam distribution in order to account for the volleyball rules. We fit and compare both models with the same covariate structure as in Karlis & Ntzoufras (2003). Both models are fitted, illustrated and compared within Bayesian framework using data from both the regular season and the play-offs of the season 2016/17 of the Greek national men's volleyball league A1.
