description: Rationale. The role of radiation-induced bystander effects in cancer therapy with alpha-particle emitting radiopharmaceuticals remains unclear. With renewed interest in using alpha-particle emitters to sterilize disseminated tumor cells, micrometastases, and tumors, a better understanding of the direct effects of alpha particles and the contribution of the bystander responses they induce is needed to refine dosimetric models that help predict clinical benefit. Accordingly, this work models and quantifies the relative importance of direct effects (DE) and bystander effects (BE) in the growth delay of human breast cancer xenografts observed previously in the tibiae of mice treated with 223RaCl2. Methods. A computational model of the MDA-MB-231 and MCF-7 human breast cancer xenografts in the tibial bone marrow of mice administered 223RaCl2 was created. A Monte Carlo radiation transport simulation was performed to assess individual cell absorbed doses. The responses of the breast cancer cells to direct alpha particle irradiation and gamma irradiation were needed as input data for the model and were thus determined experimentally using a colony forming assay and compared to the responses of preosteoblast MC3T3-E1 and osteocyte-like MLO-Y4 bone cells. Using these data, a scheme was devised to simulate the dynamic proliferation of the tumors in vivo, including DE as well as BE propagated from the irradiated cells. The parameters of the scheme were estimated semi-empirically to fit experimental tumor growth. Results. A robust BE component, in addition to a much smaller DE component, was required to simulate the in vivo tumor proliferation. We also found that the relative biological effectiveness (RBE) for cell killing by alpha particle radiation was greater for the bone cells than the tumor cells. Conclusion. This modeling study demonstrates that direct effects of radiation alone cannot explain experimental observations of 223RaCl2-induced growth delay of human breast cancer xenografts. Furthermore, while the mechanisms underlying BE remain unclear, the addition of a BE component to the model is necessary to provide an accurate prediction of the growth delay. More complex models are needed to further comprehend the extent and complexity of 223RaCl2-induced BE.

description: Deformation of N=2 quiver gauge theories by adjoint masses leads to fixed manifolds of N=1 superconformal field theories. We elaborate on the role of the complex three-form flux in the IIB duals to these fixed point theories, primarily using field theory techniques. We study the moduli space at a fixed point and find that it is either the two (complex) dimensional ALE space or three-dimensional generalized conifold, depending on the type of three-form flux that is present. We describe the exactly marginal operators that parameterize the fixed manifolds and find the operators which preserve the dimension of the moduli space. We also study deformations by arbitrary superpotentials W(Φ_i) for the adjoints. We invoke the a-theorem to show that there are no dangerously irrelevant operators like TrΦ_i^{k+1}, k>2 in the N=2 quiver gauge theories. The moduli space of the IR fixed point theory generally contains orbifold singularities if W(Φ_i) does not give a mass to the adjoints. Finally we examine some nonconformal N=1 quiver theories. We find evidence that the moduli space at the endpoint of a Seiberg duality cascade is always a three-dimensional generalized conifold. In general, the low-energy theory receives quantum corrections. In several non-cascading theories we find that the moduli space is a generalized conifold realized as a monodromic fibration.

description: Observations of the core of the massive cluster Cl 0024+1654, at a redshift z=0.39, were obtained with the Infrared Space Observatory using ISOCAM at 6.7 mum and 14.3 mum (hereafter 15 mum). Thirty five sources were detected at 15 mum and thirteen of them are spectroscopically identified with cluster galaxies. The remaining sources consist of four stars, one quasar, one foreground galaxy, three background galaxies and thirteen sources with unknown redshift. The ISOCAM sources have best-fit SEDs typical of spiral or starburst models observed 1 Gyr after the main starburst event. The median infrared luminosity of the twelve cluster galaxies is 1.0x10^11 Lsun, with 10 having infrared luminosity above 9x10^10 Lsun, and so lying near or above the 1x10^11 Lsun threshold for identification as a luminous infrared galaxy (LIRG). The [OII] star formation rates obtained for 3 cluster galaxies are one to two orders of magnitude lower than the infrared values, implying that most of the star formation is missed in the optical because it is enshrouded by dust in the starburst galaxy. The counterparts of about half of the 15 mum cluster sources are blue, luminous, star-forming systems and the type of galaxy that is usually associated with the Butcher-Oemler effect. Dust obscuration may be a major cause of the 15 mum sources appearing on the cluster main sequence. The majority of the ISOCAM sources in the Butcher-Oemler region of the colour-magnitude diagram are best fit by spiral-type SEDs whereas post-starburst models are preferred on the main sequence, with the starburst event probably triggered by interaction with one or more galaxies. Finally, the mid-infrared results on Cl 0024+1654 are compared with four other clusters observed with ISOCAM.

description: This study quantitatively assesses the input-output relationship, resource productivity and allocative efficiency of farm inputs under different systems of irrigation through profit function approach using farm level primary cross-section data with respect to sugarcane and wheat of 120 farms from the Meerut district of Western Uttar Pradesh. The study reveals that improvement in water management on private tubewell farms caused a structural break in production relations and shifted the crop production function upwards. The absolute income of all the factors of production by and large was found to be higher under private tubewells as compared to other systems of irrigation. Better water management .in terms of assured, timely and adequate water supply led to an improvement in the productivity of land and fertilizer on private tubewell farms as compared to state tubewell and canal irrigated farms for sugarcane and wheat crops. The reallocation of variable inputs had a very limited scope for increasing the yields and returns under all the irrigation systems. However, the horizontal expansion of irrigation especially through private tubewell, will enhance agricultural production and the net income of the farmers at a rapid rate.

description: The supply response of cotton in three regions viz., Costal Andhra, Rayalaseema and Telangana of Andhra Pradesh was assessed by applying a Nerlovian Lagged Adjustment Model for area, production and yield separately. The results revealed that in general the farmers' area and resource allocation decisions for cotton was influenced by its own price. In case of Rayalaseema, the price of competing crop had negative impact on area while price risk surprisingly exerted positive influence on yield. These results imply that the farmers' area and resource allocation decisions for cotton could be influenced through remunerative price policies. The supply response is also found to be influenced by traditional behaviour of farmers in allocating the area and resources for cotton cultivation. The price elasticities indicated that the growers in Coastal Andhra are more price conscious than in the other two regions. The adjustment mechanism showed that the Coastal Andhra required less number of years for production and yield adjustments while area adjustment is quick in Rayalaseema region.

description: We scrutinize the performance of different variants of equation of motion coupled cluster (EOM-CC) methods to predict electronic excitation energies and excited state potential energy surfaces in closed-shell actinide species. We focus our analysis on various recently presented pair coupled cluster doubles (pCCD) models [J.~Chem.~Phys., 23, 234105 (2016) and J.~Chem.~Theory~Comput. 15, 18--24 (2019)] and compare their performance to the conventional EOM-CCSD approach and to the completely renormalized EOM-CCSD with perturbative triples ansatz. Since the single-reference pCCD model allows us to efficiently describe static/nondynamic electron correlation, while dynamical electron correlation is accounted for \textit{a posteriori}, the investigated pCCD-based methods represent a good compromise between accuracy and computational cost. Such a feature is particularly advantageous when modelling electronic structures of actinide-containing compounds with stretched bonds. Our work demonstrates that EOM-pCCD-based methods reliably predict electronic spectra of small actinide building blocks containing thorium, uranium, and protactinium atoms. Specifically, the standard errors in adiabatic and vertical excitation energies obtained by the conventional EOM-CCSD approach are reduced by a factor of 2 when employing the EOM-pCCD-LCCSD variant resulting in a mean error of 0.05 eV and a standard deviation of 0.25 eV.

description: We have investigated chemical evolution in the young universe by analysing the detailed chemical enrichment pattern of a metal-rich galaxy at high redshift. The recent detection of over 20 elements in the gas-phase of a damped Lyman-alpha absorber (DLA) at z = 2.626 represents an exciting new avenue for exploring early nucleosynthesis. Given a strict upper age of ~2.5 Gyr and a gas-phase metallicity about one third solar, we have shown the DLA abundance pattern to be consistent with the predictions of a chemical evolution model in which the interstellar enrichment is dominated by massive stars with a small contribution from Type Ia supernovae. Discrepancies between the empirical data and the models are used to highlight outstanding issues in nucleosynthesis theory, including a tendency for Type II supernovae models to overestimate the magnitude of the "odd-even" effect at subsolar metallicities. Our results suggest a possible need for supplemental sources of magnesium and zinc, beyond that provided by massive stars.

This type of Monte Carlo data on $δ$, which is not easily found in studies of Ising lattices in the current literature, as far as we know, defines extremely well the numerical value of this exponent within very stringent limits.

description: Transition Radiation (TR) plays an important role in particle identification in high-energy physics and its characteristics provide a feasible method of energy calibration in the energy range up to 10 TeV, which is of interest for dark matter searches in cosmic rays. In a Transition Radiation Detector (TRD), the TR signal is superimposed onto the ionization energy loss signal induced by incident charged particles. In order to make the TR signal stand out from the background of ionization energy loss in a significant way, we optimized both the radiators and the detector. We have designed a new prototype of regular radiator optimized for a maximal TR photon yield, combined with the Side-On TRD which is supposed to improve the detection efficiency of TR. We started a test beam experiment with the Side-On TRD at Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire (CERN), and found that the experimental data is consistent with the simulation results.

title: Functional Genomic Analysis of the Periodic Transcriptome in the Developing Drosophila Wing
Creators: name: Liang, Liang
Publisher: name: The Open University

description: The eukaryotic cell cycle is the central molecular oscillator underlying tissue growth. Although previous studies have analyzed global cell cycle-associated transcription using unicellular systems, precisely how cell cycle-dependent processes are integrated in multicellular development in vivo remains unclear. One multicellular context-specific cell cycle event is the Interkinetic Nuclear Migration (IKNM), a conserved process by which proliferating nuclei translocate to the apical epithelial surface of the epithelium to execute mitosis. How cell cycle progression is linked with IKNM remains poorly understood. Here, I report the global cell cycle-associated transcriptomes of Drosophila wing disc epithelial cells (multicellular system) and cultured S2 cells (unicellular system). With an integrative FACS-microarray technique, we identified over 600 genes with periodic expression profiles in each context. Intriguingly, despite the common periodic genes identified, we also identified 200 genes periodically expressed only in the wing disc cells, including many core cell cycle components. I further explored the function of those wing disc periodic genes by tissue-specific RNAi knockdown. Combining flow cytometry and confocal imaging, I defined 107 periodic genes that control wing growth, wherein 35 periodic genes control cell cycle progression in the developing wing but not in S2 cells (com-pared with results from S2 RNAi screens). In addition to several novel regulators of mitotic cell size and chromosome segregation, I also identified two novel wing disc-specific periodic genes, knockdown of which disrupt IKNM. Strikingly, in both cases, disconnecting nuclei positioning with mitosis does not disrupt cell cycle progression per se. One of the IKNM genes is a potential lincRNA, which may regulate the expression of kinesin-like protein, Klp54D, and is required for normal centriole function. Taken together, my study provided a global functional perspective on cell cycle regulation in vivo, and identified numerous novel periodic genes that control growth, cell proliferation and IKNM in the epithelial context.

description: We show that two open books in a given closed, oriented three-manifold admit isotopic stabilizations, where the stabilization is made by successive plumbings with Hopf bands, if and only if their associated plane fields are homologous. Since this condition is automatically fulfilled in an integral homology sphere, the theorem implies a conjecture of J Harer, namely, that any fibered link in the three-sphere can be obtained from the unknot by a sequence of plumbings and deplumbings of Hopf bands. The proof presented here involves contact geometry in an essential way.

description: A quantum-mechanical stability analysis of metallic nanowires within the free-electron model is presented. The stability is determined by an interplay of electron-shell effects, the Rayleigh instability due to surface tension, and the Peierls instability. Although the latter effect limits the maximum length also for wires with "magic radii", it is found that nanowires in the micrometer range can be stable at room temperature.

description: a darker, better place is a visual project (video and photography) that I created during an artist residence at the Centre for Urban History (Lviv, Ukraine, 2019) with a grant from the British Council.\r\nThe work is the outcome of research into the CUH archives, namely TV reels from the 1960s, and comprises a video installation in addition to still images retrieved from the reels. The assembled material portrays a semi-fictional community that, sometime in the 1960s, somewhere in Ukraine, turned their backs on the perils of a world on the brink of disaster. They decided to build a place of their own, secreted away from the Cold War and Space Race rhetoric. They aimed to voyage to the centre of the earth, reaching for a darker, better place.\r\nThe images retrieved are overlayered stills, unintentional and fleeting passages between two different shots that gather as a single composite image for one 24th of a second. The words accompanying the piece seek to reflect on the following questions: How can appropriation and intervention on archival footage, within the realm of artistic practice, retrieve content from its original purpose and, in so doing, generate new readings?\r\nSecondly, to what extent do these interventions on archival material bridge between the past and the present?\r\nThese questions will be addressed in articulation with the work of authors such as Joan Fontcuberta (on the realms of real and fiction), Marianne Hirsch (on the distinctions between history and memory), and Ariella Aïsha Azoulay (on the possibilities inscribed within archives).

description: Taxonomic analysis of inter—and intra—variations of 18 Indian States was done with respect to several agro-economic factors of crops' production classified into five different sets of parameters to examine zonal differences. Reclassification of States of four major geographical zones into larger clusters/groups resulted in different groups for different sets of parameters. The variations noted were not so prominent for southern States as that in case of other three zones. Kerala, Uttar Pradesh, Karnataka, Gujarat, Bihar and Orissa each showed wide diversities from other 17 States for a good number of factors in respective cases. Hill area States of north east and north west regions showed high resemblance for several factors. Punjab and Haryana came out to be highly associated among themselves and they appeared together in same cluster in all the five situations

For this purpose, we have been carrying out the Protostellar Outflows at the EarliesT Stages (POETS) survey of a sample (38) of high-mass YSOs. The water maser positions and three-dimensional (3D) velocities were determined through Very Long Baseline Array observations with accuracies of a few milliarcsec (mas) and a few km/s, respectively. The position of the ionized core of the protostellar wind, marking the YSO, was determined through sensitive continuum Jansky Very Large Array observations with a typical error of 20 mas. The statistic of the separation of the water masers from the radio continuum shows that 84% of the masers are found within 1000 au from the YSO and 45% of them are within 200 au. Therefore, we can conclude that the 22 GHz water masers are a reliable proxy for the YSO position. The distribution of maser luminosity is strongly peaked towards low values, indicating that about half of the maser population is still undetected with the current Very Long Baseline Interferometry detection thresholds of 50-100 mJy/beam. Next-generation, sensitive radio interferometers will exploit these weak masers for an improved sampling of the velocity and magnetic fields around the YSOs. The average direction of the water maser proper motions provides a statistically-significant estimate for the orientation of the jet emitted by the YSO: 55% of the maser proper motions are directed on the sky within an angle of 30 deg from the jet axis. Finally, we show that our measurements of 3D maser velocities statistically support models in which water maser emission arises from planar shocks with propagation direction close to the plane of the sky.

title: Reconceptualising Value: Defining, Measuring and Managing Social Value Creation by Business Enterprises

description: The current business practice with its emphasis on short-term profit detached from wider values has lost legitimacy. The aim of this research was to determine whether the behaviour of alternative business enterprises with social primary objectives could be explained in terms of neoclassical economic theory or if they could provide different models which could help to change business culture. In the supporting literature there is a lack of empirical evidence detailing practical examples of approaches taken by alternative enterprises which could be applied to mainstream business practice. To begin to fill that gap the current research used a qualitative case study approach within a critical realist framework to carry out an in-depth study of the operations strategies of five alternative enterprises to examine how they balance social objectives with sustainability; and to determine the degree to which the enterprises remain embedded within wider social values. The findings of the research were based within detailed, context-sensitive analysis of the challenges met by the alternative enterprises, the approaches they used to surmount them and the degree to which market pressures forced compromise in the social objectives. The findings provide insights not just to academic commentators but also to social entrepreneurs so they can help build a vision of what is legitimate and possible.

description: Particle motion of a Lennard-Jones supercooled liquid near the glass transition is studied by molecular dynamics simulations. We analyze the wave vector dependence of relaxation times in the incoherent self scattering function and show that at least three different regimes can be identified and its scaling properties determined. The transition from one regime to another happens at characteristic length scales. The lengthscale associated with the onset of Fickian diffusion corresponds to the maximum size of heterogeneities in the system, and the characterisitic timescale is several times larger than the alpha relaxation time. A second crossover lengthscale is observed, which corresponds to the typical time and length of heterogeneities, in agreement with results from four point functions. The different regimes can be traced back in the behavior of the van Hove distribution of displacements, which shows a characteristic exponential regime in the heterogeneous region before the crossover to gaussian diffusion and should be observable in experiments. Our results show that it is possible to obtain characteristic length scales of heterogeneities through the computation of two point functions at different times.

description: A világ tojástermelése évente 2-3%- os növekedést mutat, az EU kibocsátása azonban 2004 és 2013 között mindössze 0,28%-kal növekedett. Az állatjóléti előírások bevezetése miatt 2009 és 2012 között a ketreces tartás aránya folyamatosan csökkent az unióban, és nőtt az alternatív tartásmódok aránya. 2016-ban az EU tojótyúk-állományának 44%-a már valamilyen alternatív (mélyalmos, szabadtartás, ökológiai) tartásmódban termelt. Az állatjóléti követelményeknek való megfelelés ugyanakkor költségnövekedést okoz, ami versenyhátrányt eredményez azokkal az országokkal szemben, ahol nincsenek vagy nem olyan szigorúak az állatjóléti előírások, mint az Európai Unióban. A költségnövekedés ellensúlyozása a termelési mutatók javításával érhető el, ezért továbbra is fontos a genetikai képességek javítása (hosszabb perzisztencia, nagyobb tojáshozam), a fajlagos takarmányfelhasználás és az elhullás csökkentése. A termelési eredmények javulása az alternatív tartásmódoknál is megfigyelhető, vagyis a ketreces és az alternatív technológiák között mért különbségek egyre kisebbek. ----------- World egg production increases 2-3% a year, EU emission, however, grew by merely 0,28% between 2004 and 2013. Due to the introduction of animal welfare measures, the proportion of the cage system decreased continuously in the Union between 2009 and 2012, and the rate of alternative solutions grew. In 2016, 44% of the EU laying hen stock was already producing according to an alternative (deep-litter, free-range, organic) system. Compliance with animal welfare provisions also leads to an increase in costs, which means competitive disadvantage compared to the countries that have more lenient or no animal welfare provisions than in the European Union. The cost increase can be counterbalanced by improving production indicators, that is why the improvement of genetical abilities (longer persistence, bigger egg yield), reducing feed conversion ratio and animal mortality continues to be important. The improvement of production results can also be observed in the case of alternative systems, which means that the differences measured between the cage and alternative technologies are becoming all the smaller.

description: We derive the general lagrangian and propagator for a vector-spinor field in $d$-dimensions and show that the physical observables are invariant under the so-called point transformation symmetry. Until now the symmetry has not been exploited in any non-trival way, presumably because it is not an invariance of the classical action nor is it a gauge symmetry. Nevertheless, we develop a technique for exploring the consequences of the symmetry leading to a conserved vector current and charge. The current and charge are identically zero in the free field case and only contribute in a background such as a electromagnetic or gravitational field. The current can couple spin-3/2 fields to vector and scalar fields and may have important consequences in intermediate energy hadron physics as well as linearized supergravity. The consistency problem which plagues higher spin field theories is then discussed and and some ideas regarding the possiblity of solutions are presented.

description: An analysis of the matrix models representing the polarimetric properties of light and material media is carried out by using the concept of the coherency matrix, which leads to the identification and definition of their corresponding physical quantities. For light, cases of homogeneous and inhomogeneous wavefront are analyzed, and a model for 3D polarimetric purity is formulated. For linear passive material media, a general model is developed on the basis that any physically realizable linear transformation of Stokes vectors is equivalent to an ensemble average of passive, deterministic, nondepolarizing transformations. Through this framework, the relevant physical quantities, including the indices of polarimetric purity, are identified and decoupled. Some decompositions of the whole system into a set of well-defined components are considered, as well as techniques for isolating the unknown components by means of new procedures for subtracting coherency matrices. These results and methods constitute a powerful tool for analyzing and exploiting experimental and industrial polarimetry. Some particular application examples are indicated.

description: Live SAR imaging from small UAVs is an emerging field. On-board processing of the radar data requires high-performance and energy-efficient platforms. One candidate for this are Transport Triggered Architecture (TTA) processors. We implement Backprojection and Backprojection Autofocus on a TTA processor specially adapted for this task using OpenCL. The resulting implementation is compared to other platforms in terms of energy efficiency. We find that the TTA is on-par with embedded GPUs and surpasses other OpenCL-based platforms. It is outperformed only by a dedicated FPGA implementation. © 2023 IEEE. Personal use of this material is permitted.

description: We relate about the custom-made modification of a Benthos deep-ocean acoustic release into a deep caller, a hydrophone for calling ocean acoustic releases that cannot be reached from a standard deck-unit. The self-contained deep caller can be lowered down to 12 km on any non-conducting winch cable. It may prove useful to retrieve sub-surface instrumentation like a seafloor-lander hidden behind large rocks or in a narrow canyon, or moorings in very deep topographic depressions. We used it to retrieve a 7 km long mooring from 10,910 m depth in the Challenger Deep, Mariana Trench.

description: The world-changing blockchain technique provides a novel method to establish a secure, trusted and decentralized system for solving the security and personal privacy problems in Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) applications. The mining process in blockchain requires miners to solve a proof-of-work puzzle, which requires high computational power. However, the lightweight IIoT devices cannot directly participate in the mining process due to the limitation of power and computational resources. The edge computing service makes it possible for IIoT applications to build a blockchain network, in which IIoT devices purchase computational resources from edge servers and thus can offload their computational tasks. The amount of computational resource purchased by IIoT devices depends on how many profits they can get in the mining process, and will directly affect the security of the blockchain network. In this paper, we investigate the incentive mechanism for the blockchain platform to attract IIoT devices to purchase more computational power from edge servers to participate in the mining process, thereby building a more secure blockchain network. We model the interaction between the blockchain platform and IIoT devices as a two-stage Stackelberg game, where the blockchain platform act as the leader, and IIoT devices act as followers. We analyze the existence and uniqueness of the Stackelberg equilibrium, and propose an efficient algorithm to compute the Stackelberg equilibrium point. Furthermore, we evaluate the performance of our algorithm through extensive simulations, and analyze the strategies of blockchain platform and IIoT devices under different situations.
