description: We report on a study of the temperature-dependence of current-induced effective magnetic fields due to spin-orbit interactions in the diluted ferromagnetic semiconductor (Ga,Mn)As. Contributions from the effective fields as well as from the anomalous Nernst effect are evident in the difference between transverse resistance measurements as a function of an external magnetic field for opposite orientations of the applied current. We separately extract these contributions by fitting to a model of coherently rotating magnetization. The component of the effective field with Dresselhaus symmetry is substantially enhanced with increasing temperature, while no significant temperature-dependence is observed for the component with Rashba symmetry.

description: Understanding the stability limitations and defect formation mechanisms in 2D magnets is essential for their utilization in spintronic and memory technologies. Here, we correlate defects in mono- to multilayer CrSBr with their structural, vibrational and magnetic properties. We use resonant Raman scattering to reveal distinct vibrational defect signatures. In pristine CrSBr, we show that bromine atoms mediate vibrational interlayer coupling, allowing for distinguishing between surface and bulk defect modes. We show that environmental exposure causes drastic degradation in monolayers, with the formation of intralayer defects. Through deliberate ion irradiation, we tune the formation of defect modes, which we show are strongly polarized and resonantly enhanced, reflecting the quasi-1D electronic character of CrSBr. Strikingly, we observe pronounced signatures of spin-phonon coupling of the intrinsic phonon modes and the ion beam induced defect modes throughout the magnetic transition temperature. Overall, we demonstrate that CrSBr shows air stability above the monolayer threshold, and provide further insight into the quasi-1D physics present. Moreover, we demonstrate defect engineering of magnetic properties and show that resonant Raman spectroscopy can serve as a direct fingerprint of magnetic phases and defects in CrSBr.

Nicotine and Amphetamine Decrease Sucrose Self-Administration
Creators: name: Fulco, Cameron
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2023

description:
Limited research exists on how amphetamine and nicotine, drugs with potent influences on feeding behaviors, impact the rewarding and pleasurable aspects of feeding. As the rewarding aspects of feeding are thought to be significant drivers of the ongoing obesity epidemic, we sought to test 1-whether amphetamine or nicotine affect the rewarding aspects of food, and 2- whether there were sex differences in these effects. In these studies, we tested whether amphetamine or nicotine altered sucrose self-administration using an FR3 schedule. Amphetamine elicited a dose dependent decrease in responding for sucrose, whereas nicotine also decreased responding, but only with the highest dose tested. Furthermore, males and females showed similar responses to both drugs. These results suggest that the mechanisms regulating the addictive qualities and appetite-suppressing effects of these drugs may be distinct, indicating potential targets for future obesity therapeutics.

description: This article delves into the fascinating world of cognitive linguistics, an interdisciplinary field that explores the intricate relationship between language, thought, and conceptualization. Like a vibrant tapestry woven with threads from cognition, pragmatics, and function, cognitive linguistics views language as a powerful cognitive tool, encoding and transmitting information through symbols and signs. Within the depths of the human mind, concepts take shape, forming a mosaic of interconnected ideas that find expression in the rich tapestry of language. Cultural experiences, customs, and historical contexts add hues and shades to this linguistic picture, creating a diverse and captivating conceptosphere that reflects the beauty and complexity of our shared human experience.

description: Fiber-based multi-wavelength lasers have a variety of important applications in telecommunication and meteorology. We experimentally study a fiber loop laser with an integrated Erbium doped fiber (EDF). The output optical spectrum is measured as a function of the EDF temperature. We find that below a critical temperature of about $10\unit{% K}$ the measured optical spectrum exhibits a sequence of narrow and unequally-spaced peaks. An intriguing connection between the peaks' wavelengths and the sequence of prime numbers is discussed. An hypothesis, which attributes the comb formation to intermode coupling, is explored.

description: Proteins play a vital role in the functioning of living cells, and their analysis is crucial for gaining deeper insights into cellular processes. Determining their three-dimensional (3D) structures is a critical aspect of understanding proteins. These is important for developing new drugs, understanding disease processes, and for many other applications. In this thesis, we propose a novel and innovative approach for comparing 3D protein structures. Our approach uses a deep neural network to accurately identify proteins with similar structures. Rapid comparison of two proteins or a single protein against a database of millions of structures can be done to quickly identify similar structures and rank them within minutes, with improved accuracy over existing methods. Additionally, we have developed a method for assembling protein structures by combining Reinforcement Learning (RL) and LZerD. Our method formulates the assembly of protein complexes as an episode in the RL framework and uses precomputed pairwise models from LZerD to combine the chains until the complete complex is assembled. Our approach has shown improved results compared to similar methods for protein complex with 3-5 chains. To further enhance our approach, we replaced LZerD with AlphaFold-Multimer and applied it to predict the structure of proteins with 6-15 chains, There are few methods that are capable of this type of large scale protein complex assembly. Using AlphaFold-Multimer, we are able to generate and sample high-quality subcomponents, reducing the action space for the RL agent from 1,000 to 75, resulting in improved performance over similar methods and demonstrating the potential of our approach for analyzing large protein complexes.

description: Up to now, the existence of intrinsic (or valence-like) heavy quark component of the proton distribution functions has not yet been confirmed or rejected. The LHC with pp-collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 7-13 TeV can supply us with extra unique information concerning this hypothesis. On the basis of our theoretical studies, it is demonstrated that investigations of the intrinsic heavy quark contributions look very promising in processes like $pp \rightarrow Z/W + c(b) + X$. A ratio of $Z+$ heavy jets over $W+$ heavy jets differential cross section as a function of the leading jet transverse momentum is proposed to maximize the sensitivity to the intrinsic charm component of the proton.

description: Widespread utilization of electric vehicles (EVs) incurs more uncertainties and impacts on the scheduling of the power-transportation coupled network. This paper investigates optimal power scheduling for a power-transportation coupled network in the day-ahead energy market considering multiple uncertainties related to photovoltaic (PV) generation and the traffic demand of vehicles. The crux of this problem is to model the coupling relation between the two networks in the day-ahead scheduling stage and consider the intra-day spatial uncertainties of the source and load. Meanwhile, the flexible load with a certain adjustment margin is introduced to ensure the balance of supply and demand of power nodes and consume the renewable energy better. Furthermore, we show the interactions between the power system and EV users from a potential game-theoretic perspective, where the uncertainties are characterized by an ambiguity set. In order to ensure the individual optimality of the two networks in a unified framework in day-ahead power scheduling, a two-stage distributionally robust centralized optimization model is established to carry out the equilibrium of power-transportation coupled network. On this basis, a combination of the duality theory and the Benders decomposition is developed to solve the distributionally robust optimization (DRO) model. Simulations demonstrate that the proposed approach can obtain individual optimal and less conservative strategies.

description: We demonstrate THz intersubband absorption (15.6-26.1 meV) in m-plane AlGaN/GaN quantum wells. We find a trend of decreasing peak energy with increasing quantum well width, in agreement with theoretical expectations. However, a blue-shift of the transition energy of up to 14 meV was observed relative to the calculated values. This blue-shift is shown to decrease with decreasing charge density and is therefore attributed to many-body effects. Furthermore, a ~40% reduction in the linewidth (from roughly 8 to 5 meV) was obtained by reducing the total sheet density and inserting undoped AlGaN layers that separate the wavefunctions from the ionized impurities in the barriers.
title: More than mothers and wives. A study of women's public roles in Roman society between the fourth and second centuries BC
Creators: name: Chavarria, Sophie
Publisher: name: University of Kent
Year: 2022

description: This thesis has collected and investigated for the very first time a large variety of source- materials that underline women's public roles and agency between the fourth and second centuries BC in the city of Rome. By doing so, this research project demonstrates that women's statuses were not solely defined by their roles in producing children and supporting husbands. Starting with a brief overview of the social context of the Mid-Republican era, the second chapter delves directly into early epitaphs and highlights how women made undeniable contributions to the establishment of their city and the Roman civitas. Moving on from the study of women's memories, the third chapter focused on spatial analyses proves that women did not only move in private settings but could hold influential positions in public. A lengthy fourth chapter discusses wide-ranging approaches to the female body as well as its performances in sacred environments, thus showing that women were understood as key protectors of their city. The final chapter breaks down the boundaries between the different female social categories and challenges the parameters commonly accepted as defining a person's reputation in Ancient Rome. Through the close examination of transmitted sources which have yet to be studied carefully for what they reveal about women, this thesis has thus shed new light on the many facets of women's identities during the critical times of the Mid-Republican city. Instead of focusing on the preponderant literary figure of the feminine exemplum (ideal), one of the many rhetorical devices favoured by ancient authors, allusions to 'ordinary' women have been tracked down. The evidence compiled and analysed for this research plainly sustains the view that a woman's reputation did not solely rely on her family roles, particularly those of a wife and a mother. For the sake of this work, sources are brought together in a new way and their substantial amount, illustrated by a seventy-six-page long appendix, contributes to reconstruct a more vivid, realistic, and less stereotypical image of women in Republican Rome. The evidence goes well beyond the well-known works usually adopted in this kind of research, such as the comedies of Plautus and Terence along with Cato the Elder's agricultural treaty, to include satires, palliatae and togatae whose texts are only partially preserved, as well as inscriptions, visual representations, and more widely material culture.

description: The kinetics and energetic relaxation associated with collisions between fast and thermal atoms are of fundamental interest for escape and therefore also for the evolution of the Mars atmosphere. The total and differential cross-sections of fast O($^3P$) atom collisions with CO have been calculated from quantum mechanical calculations. The cross-sections are computed at collision energies from 0.4 to 5 eV in the center-of-mass frame relevant to the planetary science and astrophysics. All the three potential energy surfaces ($^3$A', $^3$A" and 2 $^3$A" symmetry) of O($^3P$) + CO collisions separating to the atomic ground state have been included in calculations of cross-sections. The cross-sections are computed for all three isotopes of energetic O($^3P$) atoms collisions with CO. The isotope dependence of the cross-sections are compared. Our newly calculated data on the energy relaxation of O atoms and their isotopes with CO molecules will be very useful to improve the modeling of escape and energy transfer processes in the Mars' upper atmosphere.

description: Excerpts from the report Introduction: Beef fattening in northern Colorado is rapidly shifting from smaller to larger enterprises. From 1953 to 1963, the percentage of that area's feeder cattle in feedlots of less than 500-head capacity declined sharply--from 60 to 20 percent. Meanwhile, the percentage of the area’s cattle fed in lots of 5, 000-head capacity or larger rose from less than 25 to more than 50 percent. Farmers, specialized beef-feeding businesses, feed companies, meat packers, public officials, and others are concerned over these rapid changes. They want a clearer understanding of the economic forces behind such changes. They need answers to such questions as : Does volume have a significant bearing on cost per head in cattle feeding? If it does, how important are the cost reductions due to feedlot capacity in the competitive structure of the cattle-feeding industry?

description: We present radial velocities (from Gemini/GMOS) of the second sample of ultra-compact dwarfs (UCDs) and bright globular clusters (GCs) in the Antlia cluster. Twenty-three objects are located around the giant elliptical NGC 3268, and one is close to the fainter lenticular NGC 3273. Together with previously found UCDs around NGC 3258 a total of 35 UCDs and bright GCs has been now identified in the Antlia cluster. Their colours and magnitudes are compared with those of the nuclei of dE,N galaxies already confirmed as Antlia members. For a subsample that lie on ACS images and are brighter than M_V = -9 mag, the effective radii (R_eff) have been measured, the maximum radius being approximately 10 pc. In addition to the radial velocity sample, we find 10 objects in the magnitude range corresponding to GCs but with 10 < R_eff < 17 pc, resembling the so-called `extended clusters'. By number and magnitude, the new UCDs fit to the GC luminosity function, supporting their interpretation as bright GCs. Additionally, we use a tracer mass estimator to calculate the mass enclosed up to ~47 kpc from NGC 3268, which results in 2.7 x 10^12 M_o.

description: Swarming is a conspicuous behavioural trait observed in bird flocks, fish shoals, insect swarms and mammal herds. It is thought to improve collective awareness and offer protection from predators. Many current models involve the hypothesis that information coordinating motion is exchanged between neighbors. We argue that such local interactions alone are insufficient to explain the organization of large flocks of birds and that the mechanism for the exchange of long-ranged information necessary to control their density remains unknown. We show that large flocks self-organize to the maximum density at which a typical individual is still just able to see out of the flock in many directions. Such flocks are marginally opaque - an external observer can also just still see a substantial fraction of sky through the flock. Although seemingly intuitive we show that this need not be the case; flocks could easily be highly diffuse or entirely opaque. The emergence of marginal opacity strongly constrains how individuals interact with each other within large swarms. It also provides a mechanism for global interactions: An individual can respond to the projection of the flock that it sees. This provides for faster information transfer and hence rapid flock dynamics, another advantage over local models. From a behavioural perspective it optimizes the information available to each bird while maintaining the protection of a dense, coherent flock.

description: The demographic projections on the European population predict that people aged over 60 will increase by about two million/year in the next decades. Since 2012, the Campania Reference Site of the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing supports the innovation of the Regional Health System, to face up demographic changes and sustainability. Campania Reference Site provides the opportunity to connect loco-regional stakeholders in social and health care services (universities, healthcare providers, social services, local communities and municipalities), with international organizations, in order to adopt and scale up innovative solutions and approaches. This paper describes the building process of Campania Reference Site and the main results achieved, that have been allowing it to become a hub for open innovation in the field of active and healthy aging at regional, national and international level.
title: Mechanism of Action Of  PITM Reduction Of ZIKV Replication In Cell Culture
Creators: name: Femi-Olatunji, Oluwatola
Publisher: name: Georgia State University
Year: 2024

description:
Zika virus, a single-stranded positive-sense RNA virus belonging to the Flaviviridae family, has been linked to a distinct pattern of birth defects and disabilities, as well as Guillain-Barre syndrome in healthy individuals. Proimmune, free-form amino acids (FFAAP) reduce ZIKV replication by up to 90% in comparison to the mocked-infected cells. The mechanism by which ZIKV replication is reduced is puzzling because blocking intracellular glutathione biosynthesis is still associated with reduced ZIKV replication. Here we provide data generated to test the hypothesis Proimmune was sufficient to neutralize ROS, preventing the cell from inducing Oxeiptosis via nrf2 release from KEAP1 the usual innate defense engaged in the presence of pathogen-induced ROS. The data reveal that despite ROS generated post high multiplicity ZIKV infection, Proimmune reduces virus replication in the presence of glutathione biosynthesis inhibitors (BSO) and in the absence of ROS upregulation of nrf2-regulated genes that protect cells from excess oxygen free-radicals.

description: With the rapid growth of smartphone and tablet users, Device-to-Device (D2D) communications have become an attractive solution for enhancing the performance of traditional cellular networks. However, relevant security issues involved in D2D communications have not been addressed yet. In this paper, we investigate the security requirements and challenges for D2D communications, and present a secure and efficient key agreement protocol, which enables two mobile devices to establish a shared secret key for D2D communications without prior knowledge. Our approach is based on the Diffie-Hellman key agreement protocol and commitment schemes. Compared to previous work, our proposed protocol introduces less communication and computation overhead. We present the design details and security analysis of the proposed protocol. We also integrate our proposed protocol into the existing Wi-Fi Direct protocol, and implement it using Android smartphones.

description: Segmenting the fine structure of the mouse brain on magnetic resonance (MR) images is critical for delineating morphological regions, analyzing brain function, and understanding their relationships. Compared to a single MRI modality, multimodal MRI data provide complementary tissue features that can be exploited by deep learning models, resulting in better segmentation results. However, multimodal mouse brain MRI data is often lacking, making automatic segmentation of mouse brain fine structure a very challenging task. To address this issue, it is necessary to fuse multimodal MRI data to produce distinguished contrasts in different brain structures. Hence, we propose a novel disentangled and contrastive GAN-based framework, named MouseGAN++, to synthesize multiple MR modalities from single ones in a structure-preserving manner, thus improving the segmentation performance by imputing missing modalities and multi-modality fusion. Our results demonstrate that the translation performance of our method outperforms the state-of-the-art methods. Using the subsequently learned modality-invariant information as well as the modality-translated images, MouseGAN++ can segment fine brain structures with averaged dice coefficients of 90.0% (T2w) and 87.9% (T1w), respectively, achieving around +10% performance improvement compared to the state-of-the-art algorithms. Our results demonstrate that MouseGAN++, as a simultaneous image synthesis and segmentation method, can be used to fuse cross-modality information in an unpaired manner and yield more robust performance in the absence of multimodal data. We release our method as a mouse brain structural segmentation tool for free academic usage at https://github.com/yu02019.

description: Quantum entanglement not only plays an important role in the study of the fundamentals of quantum theory, but also is considered as a crucial resource in quantum information science. The generation of macroscopic entanglement involving multiple optical and mechanical modes is a desired task in cavity optomechanics. However, the dark-mode effect is a critical obstacle against the generation of quantum entanglement in multimode optomechanical systems consisting of multiple degenerate or near-degenerate mechanical modes coupled to a common cavity mode. Here we propose an auxiliary-cavity-mode method to enhance optomechanical entanglement in a multimode optomechanical system by breaking the dark-mode effect. We find that the introduction of the auxiliary cavity mode not only assists the entanglement creation between the cavity mode and the mechanical modes, but also improves the immunity of the optomechanical entanglement to the thermal excitations by about three orders of magnitude. We also study the optomechanical entanglement in the network-coupled optomechanical system consisting of two mechanical modes and two cavity modes. By analyzing the correspondence between the optomechanical entanglement and the dark-mode effect, we find that optomechanical entanglement can be largely enhanced once the dark mode is broken. In addition, we study the mechanical entanglement and find that it is negligibly small. We also present some discussions on the experimental implementation with a microwave optomechanical setup, on the relationship between the dark-mode-breaking mechanism and the center-of-mass and relative coordinates, and on the explanation of the important role of the dark-mode breaking in the enhancement of optomechanical entanglement. Our results pave the way towards the preparation of entangled optomechanical networks and noise-resistant quantum resources.

description: Age-related macular degeneration (AMD) is a degenerative disorder affecting the macula, a key area of the retina for visual acuity. Nowadays, it is the most frequent cause of blindness in developed countries. Although some promising treatments have been developed, their effectiveness is low in advanced stages. This emphasizes the importance of large-scale screening programs. Nevertheless, implementing such programs for AMD is usually unfeasible, since the population at risk is large and the diagnosis is challenging. All this motivates the development of automatic methods. In this sense, several works have achieved positive results for AMD diagnosis using convolutional neural networks (CNNs). However, none incorporates explainability mechanisms, which limits their use in clinical practice. In that regard, we propose an explainable deep learning approach for the diagnosis of AMD via the joint identification of its associated retinal lesions. In our proposal, a CNN is trained end-to-end for the joint task using image-level labels. The provided lesion information is of clinical interest, as it allows to assess the developmental stage of AMD. Additionally, the approach allows to explain the diagnosis from the identified lesions. This is possible thanks to the use of a CNN with a custom setting that links the lesions and the diagnosis. Furthermore, the proposed setting also allows to obtain coarse lesion segmentation maps in a weakly-supervised way, further improving the explainability. The training data for the approach can be obtained without much extra work by clinicians. The experiments conducted demonstrate that our approach can identify AMD and its associated lesions satisfactorily, while providing adequate coarse segmentation maps for most common lesions.

description: Dark Matter is essential for structure formation in the late Universe so it must be stable on cosmological time scales. But how stable exactly? Only assuming decays into relativistic particles, we report an otherwise model independent bound on the lifetime of Dark Matter using current cosmological data. Since these decays affect only the low-$\ell$ multipoles of the CMB, the Dark Matter lifetime is expected to correlate with the tensor-to-scalar ratio $r$ as well as curvature $Ω_k$. We consider two models, including $r$ and $r+Ω_k$ respectively, versus data from Planck, WMAP, WiggleZ and Baryon Acoustic Oscillations, with or without the BICEP2 data (if interpreted in terms of primordial gravitational waves). This results in a lower bound on the lifetime of CDM given by 160Gyr (without BICEP2) or 200Gyr (with BICEP2) at 95% confidence level.

description: Galactic cosmic rays are mostly made up of energetic nuclei, with less than $1\%$ of electrons (and positrons). Precise measurement of the electron and positron component requires a very efficient method to reject the nuclei background, mainly protons. In this work, we develop an unsupervised machine learning method to identify electrons and positrons from cosmic ray protons for the Dark Matter Particle Explorer (DAMPE) experiment. Compared with the supervised learning method used in the DAMPE experiment, this unsupervised method relies solely on real data except for the background estimation process. As a result, it could effectively reduce the uncertainties from simulations. For three energy ranges of electrons and positrons, 80--128 GeV, 350--700 GeV, and 2--5 TeV, the residual background fractions in the electron sample are found to be about (0.45 $\pm$ 0.02)$\%$, (0.52 $\pm$ 0.04)$\%$, and (10.55 $\pm$ 1.80)$\%$, and the background rejection power is about (6.21 $\pm$ 0.03) $\times$ $10^4$, (9.03 $\pm$ 0.05) $\times$ $10^4$, and (3.06 $\pm$ 0.32) $\times$ $10^4$, respectively. This method gives a higher background rejection power in all energy ranges than the traditional morphological parameterization method and reaches comparable background rejection performance compared with supervised machine learning~methods.
