Quantum Mechanical Stabilization of a Collapsing Bose-Bose Mixture

description: According to the mean-field theory a condensed Bose-Bose mixture collapses when the interspecies attraction becomes stronger than the geometrical average of the intraspecies repulsions, $g_{12}^2>g_{11} g_{22}$. We show that instead of collapsing such a mixture gets into a dilute liquid-like droplet state stabilized by quantum fluctuations thus providing a direct manifestation of beyond mean-field effects. We study various properties of the droplet and find, in particular, that in a wide range of parameters its excitation spectrum lies entirely above the particle emission threshold. The droplet thus automatically evaporates itself to zero temperature, the property potentially interesting by itself and from the viewpoint of sympathetic cooling of other systems.

description: An earlier study of the Kepler Mission noise properties on time scales of primary relevance to detection of exoplanet transits found that higher than expected noise followed to a large extent from the stars, rather than instrument or data analysis performance. The earlier study over the first six quarters of Kepler data is extended to the full four years ultimately comprising the mission. Efforts to improve the pipeline data analysis have been successful in reducing noise levels modestly as evidenced by smaller values derived from the current data products. The new analyses of noise properties on transit time scales show significant changes in the component attributed to instrument and data analysis, with essentially no change in the inferred stellar noise. We also extend the analyses to time scales of several days, instead of several hours to better sample stellar noise that follows from magnetic activity. On the longer time scale there is a shift in stellar noise for solar-type stars to smaller values in comparison to solar values.

description: This study examines Quaternion Dirac solutions for an infinite square well. The quaternion result does not recover the complex result within a particular limit. This raises the possibility that quaternionic quantum mechanics may not be understood as a correction to complex quantum mechanics, but it may also be a structure that can be used to study phenomena that cannot be described through the framework of complex quantum mechanics.
TOG–tubulin binding specificity promotes microtubule dynamics and mitotic spindle formation

description: XMAP215, CLASP, and Crescerin use arrayed tubulin-binding tumor overexpressed gene (TOG) domains to modulate microtubule dynamics. We hypothesized that TOGs have distinct architectures and tubulin-binding properties that underlie each family’s ability to promote microtubule polymerization or pause. As a model, we investigated the pentameric TOG array of a Drosophila melanogaster XMAP215 member, Msps. We found that Msps TOGs have distinct architectures that bind either free or polymerized tubulin, and that a polarized array drives microtubule polymerization. An engineered TOG1-2-5 array fully supported Msps-dependent microtubule polymerase activity. Requisite for this activity was a TOG5-specific N-terminal HEAT repeat that engaged microtubule lattice-incorporated tubulin. TOG5–microtubule binding maintained mitotic spindle formation as deleting or mutating TOG5 compromised spindle architecture and increased the mitotic index. Mad2 knockdown released the spindle assembly checkpoint triggered when TOG5–microtubule binding was compromised, indicating that TOG5 is essential for spindle function. Our results reveal a TOG5-specific role in mitotic fidelity and support our hypothesis that architecturally distinct TOGs arranged in a sequence-specific order underlie TOG array microtubule regulator activity.

description: We report photon-noise limited performance of horn-coupled, aluminum lumped-element kinetic inductance detectors at millimeter wavelengths. The detectors are illuminated by a millimeter-wave source that uses an active multiplier chain to produce radiation between 140 and 160 GHz. We feed the multiplier with either amplified broadband noise or a continuous-wave tone from a microwave signal generator. We demonstrate that the detector response over a 40 dB range of source power is well-described by a simple model that considers the number of quasiparticles. The detector noise-equivalent power (NEP) is dominated by photon noise when the absorbed power is greater than approximately 1 pW, which corresponds to $\mathrm{NEP} \approx 2 \times 10^{-17} \, \mathrm{W} \, \mathrm{Hz}^{-1/2}$, referenced to absorbed power. At higher source power levels we observe the relationships between noise and power expected from the photon statistics of the source signal: $\mathrm{NEP} \propto P$ for broadband (chaotic) illumination and $\mathrm{NEP} \propto P^{1/2}$ for continuous-wave (coherent) illumination.

description: A remote detection scheme utilizing the distant dipolar field interaction between two different spin species was proposed by Granwehr et al. [J. Magn. Reson. 176(2), 125 (2005)]. In that sequence 1H spins were detected indirectly via their dipolar field interaction with 129Xe spins, which served as the sensing spins. Here we propose a modification of the proposed detection scheme that takes advantage of the longer T1 relaxation time of xenon to create a long lasting dipolar field with which the fast relaxing 1H spins are allowed to interact many times during a single acquisition. This new acquisition scheme improves detection sensitivity, but it also presents some challenges.

description: In this paper, we report large-scale configuration interaction (CI) calculations of linear optical absorption spectra of various isomers of magnesium clusters Mg$_{n}$ (n=2--5), corresponding to valence transitions. Geometry optimization of several low-lying isomers of each cluster was carried out using coupled-cluster singles doubles (CCSD) approach, and these geometries were subsequently employed to perform ground and excited state calculations using either the full-CI (FCI) or the multi-reference singles-doubles configuration interaction (MRSDCI) approach, within the frozen-core approximation. Our calculated photoabsorption spectrum of magnesium dimer (Mg$_{2}$) isomer is in excellent agreement with the experiments both for peak positions, and intensities. Owing to the sufficiently inclusive electron-correlation effects, these results can serve as benchmarks against which future experiments, as well as calculations performed using other theoretical approaches, can be tested.

description: Alterations in gray matter development represent a potential pathway through which childhood abuse is associated with psychopathology. Several prior studies find reduced volume and thickness of prefrontal (PFC) and temporal cortex regions in abused compared to non-abused adolescents, although most prior research is based on adults and volume-based measures. The current study tests the hypothesis that child abuse, independent of parental education, predicts reduced cortical thickness in prefrontal and temporal cortices as well as reduced gray mater volume (GMV) in subcortical regions during adolescence.

description: We have developed a relativistic kinetic transport approach that incorporates initial state fluctuations allowing to study the build up of elliptic flow $v_2$ and high order harmonics $v_3$, $v_4$ and $v_5$ for a fluid at fixed $η/s(T)$. We study the effect of the $η/s$ ratio and its T dependence on the build up of the $v_n(p_T)$ for two different beam energies: RHIC for Au+Au at $\sqrt{s}=200 \,GeV$ and LHC for $Pb+Pb$ at $\sqrt{s}=2.76 \,TeV$. We find that for the two different beam energies considered the suppression of the $v_n(p_T)$ due to the viscosity of the medium have different contributions coming from the cross over or QGP phase. Our study reveals that only in ultra-central collisions ($0 - 0.2 \%$) the $v_n(p_T)$ have a stronger sensitivity to the T dependence of $η/s$ in the QGP phase and this sensitivity increases with the order of the harmonic n. Moreover, the study of the correlations between the initial spatial anisotropies $ε_n$ and the final flow coefficients $v_n$ shows that at LHC energies there is more correlation than at RHIC energies. The degree of correlation increases from peripheral to central collisions, but only in ultra-central collisions at LHC, we find that the linear correlation coefficient $C(n,n) \approx 1$ for $n=2,3,4$ and $5$. This suggests that the final correlations in the ($v_n$,$v_m$) space reflect the initial correlations in the ($ε_n$,$ε_m$) space.

description: In the semi-classical description of the flux-tube fragmentation process for hadron production and hadronization in high-energy $e^+e^-$ annihilations and $pp$ collisions, the rapidity-space-time ordering and the local conservation laws of charge, flavor, and momentum provide a set of powerful tools that may allow the reconstruction of the space-time dynamics of quarks and mesons in exclusive measurements of produced hadrons, on an event-by-event basis. We propose procedures to reconstruct the space-time dynamics from event-by-event exclusive hadron data to exhibit explicitly the ordered chain of hadrons produced in a flux tube fragmentation. As a supplementary tool, we infer the average space-time coordinates of the $q$-$\bar q$ pair production vertices from the $π^-$ rapidity distribution data obtained by the NA61/SHINE Collaboration in $pp$ collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 6.3 to 17.3 GeV.

description: The thermal Casimir-Lifshitz force among two bodies held at different temperatures displays striking features that are absent in systems in thermal equilibrium. The manifestation of this force has been observed so far only in Bose-Einstein condensates close to a heated substrate, but never between two macroscopic bodies. Observation of the thermal Casimir-Lifhitz force out of thermal equilibrium with conventional Casimir setups is very difficult, because for experimentally accessible separations the thermal force is small compared to the zero-temperature quantum Casimir force, unless prohibitively large temperature differences among the plates are considered. We describe an apparatus that allows for a direct observation of the thermal force out of equilibrium for submicron separations and for moderate temperature differences between the plates.

description: Prävention beginnt im Prüflabor, wenn Chemikalien auf ihre gefährlichen Eigenschaften getestet werden. Dazu sind Prüfmethoden entwickelt und veröffentlicht worden, die heute weltweit Anwendung finden. Auf die Validität der Prüfmethode und richtige Durchführung der Prüfung im Laboratorium müssen sich Sicherheitsfachkräfte, Transporteure oder Händler verlassen können. Anhand der in den letzten 10 Jahren im Rahmen des CEQAT-DGHS von BAM und PTB durchgeführten Ringversuche (RV) wird gezeigt, dass bei allen bisher untersuchten Prüfmethoden ein Verbesserungsbedarf besteht. Die RV müssen daher zunächst auf die Methodenverbesserung und -validierung abzielen und nicht auf Leistungstests. Das Labormanagement und die praktische Durchführung der Prüfung sind in vielen Laboratorien verbesserungsbedürftig. Der Begriff „Erfahrung der Prüfer“ ist kritisch zu sehen: Eine „lange Erfahrung mit vielen Prüfungen“ ist nicht unbedingt ein Garant für richtige Ergebnisse. Bei der Prüfung der gefährlichen Eigenschaften von Chemikalien sind Referenzmaterialen auf Grund der Instabilität in der Regel nicht verfügbar. Für Prüflaboratorien sind RV daher eine Alternative bei der Qualitätssicherung. RV sind jedoch aufwendig und können nur in relativ großen Zeitabständen durchgeführt werden. Es sind deshalb Verfahren zur Verifizierung z. B. der in den Laboratorien verwendeten Prüfapparaturen zu entwickeln. Die Entwicklung von Verifizierungsverfahren wird am Bespiel der Prüfmethode UN Test N.5 demonstriert.

description: Elektrische Entladungen sind im Explosionsschutz häufig als mögliche Zündquellen für brennbare Gasgemische zu bewerten. Bei geringer Entladungsenergie ist der Zündprozess schlecht reproduzierbar. In dieser Arbeit werden die bei einer Zündung auf verschiedenen Zeitskalen ablaufenden Prozesse experimentell untersucht. Mittels optischer Emissionsspektroskopie werden das zeitliche Verhalten und die Temperatur der elektrischen Entladung bestimmt. Die sich an die Entladung anschließenden gasdynamischen Effekte werden mit dem Schlieren-Verfahren analysiert. Anschließend wird für die zündfähigsten Gemische von Wasserstoff, Ethen bzw. Propan mit Luft die Zündung und die Anfangsphase der Flammenausbreitung untersucht. Zeitaufgelöste Schlieren-Messungen zeigen den Einfluss der Entladungsenergie auf den Zündprozess und Einzelschuss-OH-LIF-Messungen legen die Struktur des Flammenkerns in der Frühphase offen. Die Ergebnisse helfen beim Verständnis der Teilprozesse während der Zündung durch elektrische Entladungen. Dadurch wird die Weiterentwicklung detaillierter numerischer Modelle für die Vorhersage von Zündprozessen unterstützt.

description: Um die Ausbreitung von Schwergaswolken infolge störfallbedingter Freisetzungen in bebautem Gelände besser vorhersagen zu können, soll eine praxisorientierte Methode zur numerischen Simulation von Schwergasausbreitungen entwickelt werden. Dafür muss zunächst die atmosphärische Strömung möglichst realitätsnah abgebildet werden. Es wurde ein Strömungsmodell mit einer weiterentwickelten Turbulenzmodellierung, dazu konsistenten atmosphärischen Einlassrandbedingungen und Wandfunktionen entwickelt und in OpenFOAM programmiertechnisch implementiert. Durch Simulationen von atmosphärischen Strömungen über ebenes Gelände und Gebäudeumströmungen wurde gezeigt, dass der Ansatz, zusätzliche Quellterme in das bestehende Turbulenzmodell einzuführen, zu einer besseren Vorhersage des Windfelds führt. Der gewählte Ansatz, ein Potenzprofil als Geschwindigkeitsprofil vorzugeben, ermöglicht dabei eine hohe bodennahe Gitternetzauflösung, die bei dem üblicherweise verwendeten logarithmischen Geschwindigkeitsprofil nicht möglich ist. Diese hohe Auflösung ist eine Bedingung für die Simulation der bodennahen Ausbreitung von Schwergaswolken. Erste Simulationen von Schwergasausbreitungen zeigen, dass die Turbulenzmodellierung in der Schwergaswolke weiterzuentwickeln ist.

description: Die Abhängigkeit der unteren Explosionsgrenze (UEG) vom Ausgangsdruck wurde für Dampf/Luft-Gemische von 1 bar bis 20 bar bei verschiedenen Temperaturen untersucht. Aus der Literatur war bereits bekannt, dass im Unterdruckbereich die untere Explosionsgrenze von Gasen und Dämpfen mit abnehmendem Druck ansteigt, bis sie am Mindestzünddruck mit der oberen Explosionsgrenze zusammenfällt. Die Veränderung der UEG im Überdruckbereich ist dagegen wie erwartet nur gering. Die untere Explosionsgrenze bis zu 20 bar liegt maximal 0,1 Mol-% unterhalb des Wertes bei Normaldruck.

description: The family environment plays an important role in the intergenerational transmission of MDD, but less is known about how day-to-day mother-child interactions may be disrupted in families with a history of MDD. Disruptions in mother-child synchrony, the dynamic and convergent exchange of physiological and behavioral cues during interactions, may be one important risk factor. Although maternal MDD is associated with a lack of mother-child synchrony at the behavioral level, no studies have examined the impact of maternal MDD on physiological synchrony. Therefore, the current study examined whether maternal history of MDD moderates mother-child physiological synchrony (measured via RSA) during positive and negative discussions.

description: This study aimed to determine the volatile organic compound (VOC) exposure levels and evaluate the risk perception among integrated circuit assembly and testing workers in Taiwan. Five representative companies were selected as the study population to measure the VOC levels of benzene, toluene, ethanol, acetone, and isopropyl alcohol using 50 stainless steel canisters in 2013. A gas chromatograph with a flame ionization detector was used to analyze the VOC levels, and multiple logistic regression models were used to identify relative factors of risk perception among 210 volunteers using a self-administered questionnaire. Ethanol (median: 465.1 ppbv; range: 64.8–1744.3 ppbv) had the highest concentration compared with isopropyl alcohol (291.6 [171.8–411.4] ppbv), acetone (176.3 [106.8–528.4] ppbv), toluene (171.6 [130.2–240.1] ppbv), and benzene (all below the limit of detection of 6.95 ppbv). Subjects exposed to the total of five VOCs ≥406.5 ppbv had a significantly higher risk perception of health hazards caused by hazardous gas exposure (AOR = 4.17, 95% CI = 1.17–14.93) compared with those exposed to <278.1 ppbv. A significant exposure–response association was identified in the total levels of the five VOCs and risk perception (AOR = 2.03, 95% CI = 1.07–3.85). Workers exposed to higher levels of the total of five VOCs may have higher risk perceptions.

description: Urban air quality is influenced by both local and external sources of pollution. The outbreak of Coronavirus COVID-19 had led to implementation of stringent lockdowns at different levels of governance. National Level Lockdown (NLL) was imposed in 2020 and State Level Lockdown (SLL), in 2021 to curb the spread of disease. A direct consequence of lockdown is the dramatic improvement of air quality in various urban agglomerations. The present study investigated the effects of national and regional lockdown on PM2.5 levels at various urban morphological units in the Chennai Metropolitan Region, the fourth-largest urban conglomeration in India. Hourly measurements of PM2.5 over a 6-year period (2016–2021) at three monitoring sites in Chennai were segregated into Pre-lockdown Phase (PLP) (2016–2019), NLL, and SLL to analyze reductions in PM2.5 levels. Local PM2.5 sources were investigated using Conditional Bivariate Probability Function (CBPF) whereas transported PM2.5 was evaluated using Concentration Weighted Trajectory (CWT) and Cluster Analysis. The results showed that PM2.5 in Chennai Metropolitan Region reduced by 33.45% during NLL and 48.95% during SLL when compared to PLP. Mann Kendall Test showed a statistically significant (p < .001) decreasing PM2.5 trend at Manali Monitoring Site, Alandur Monitoring Site, and Velachery Monitoring Site. CBPF showed variations in local contributions for all sites during the selected time frames. CWT and Cluster analysis showed reductions in transported PM2.5 during NLL and SLL when compared to PLP. Health Risk Assessment using Integrated Exposure Response (IER) model function showed a decreasing trend of excess mortality for various health endpoints over 6-year period. Steep reductions in excess mortality cases were observed during NLL and SLL. The results show that lockdown implemented at the state level proved to be more effective than the national level in reducing PM2.5 levels over Chennai metropolitan Region.

description: We prove that if $ C $ is a family of separable Banach spaces which is analytic with respect to the Effros-Borel structure and none member of $ C $ is isometrically universal for all separable Banach spaces, then there exists a separable Banach space with a monotone Schauder basis which is isometrically universal for $ C $ but still not for all separable Banach spaces. We also establish an analogous result for the class of strictly convex spaces.

description: Ambient polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) emissions are a major environmental problem in urban areas. We aimed to assess the concentration of PAHs-bound to particulate matter (PM), source apportionment and carcinogenic risk due to inhalation exposure to PAHs. We selected 30 sampling locations in Sabzevar, Iran (2021). PM bounds-PAHs samples were collected using a PM passive sampler. Monte Carlo simulation technique with sensitivity analysis was used to assess the carcinogenic risk of inhalation exposure to PAHs. The Positive Matrix Factorization (PMF) model was used for source apportionment of ambient PAHs. The median (iterquartile range (IQR)) of total PAHs was 1056.2 (848.5) ppb. The median (IQR) ratio of total LMW/HMW PAHs was 1.9 (1.4), indicating petrogenic sources of PAHs. The 95th percentile of lifetime cancer risk (LTCR) for children, adolescents, and adults in both genders was higher than the threshold level recommended by USEPA (i.e., 1 × 10−6). The PMF model indicated five possible PAH sources, including combustion of biomass, natural gas, combustion petroleum-based fuels, traffic sources of mixed gasoline and diesel combustion, and industrial activities. The spatial autocorrelation models indicated a clustered distribution pattern for all PAHs congeners except Anthracene. Our results suggested that point sources of ambient PAHs should be paid more attention to in urban areas. Moreover, inhalation exposure to ambient PAHs had a potential carcinogenic risk for the inhabitant of Sabzevar.

description: The prevalence of masked hypertension, out-of-clinic daytime systolic/diastolic blood pressure (SBP/DBP)≥135/85 mmHg on ambulatory blood pressure monitoring (ABPM) among adults with clinic SBP/DBP<140/90 mmHg, is high. It is unclear who should be screened for masked hypertension. We derived a clinic blood pressure (CBP) index to identify populations for masked hypertension screening. Index cut-points corresponding to 75% to 99% sensitivity and prehypertension were evaluated as ABPM testing criterion. In a derivation cohort (n=695), the index was clinic SBP+1.3*clinic DBP. In an external validation cohort (n=675), the sensitivity for masked hypertension using an index ≥190 mmHg and ≥217 mmHg and prehypertension status was 98.5%, 71.5% and 82.5%, respectively. Using NHANES data (n=11,778), we estimated that these thresholds would refer 118.6, 44.4 and 59.3 million US adults, respectively, to ABPM screening for masked hypertension. In conclusion, the CBP index provides a useful approach to identify candidates for masked hypertension screening using ABPM.

description: We consider a class of multiscale parabolic problems with diffusion coefficients oscillating in space at a possibly small scale $\varepsilon$. Numerical homogenization methods are popular for such problems, because they capture efficiently the asymptotic behaviour as $\varepsilon \rightarrow 0$, without using a dramatically fine spatial discretization at the scale of the fast oscillations. However, known such homogenization schemes are in general not accurate for both the highly oscillatory regime $\varepsilon \rightarrow 0$ and the non oscillatory regime $\varepsilon \sim 1$. In this paper, we introduce an Asymptotic Preserving method based on an exact micro-macro decomposition of the solution which remains consistent for both regimes.
