description: By T-dualizing space-filling D-branes in IIB orientifold compactifications along the three non-internal spatial directions, we obtain black hole bound states living in a universe with a gauged spatial reflection symmetry. We call these objects orientiholes. The gravitational entropy of various IIA orientihole configurations provides an "experimental" estimate of the number of vacua in various sectors of the IIB landscape. Furthermore, basic physical properties of orientiholes map to (sometimes subtle) microscopic features, thus providing a useful alternative viewpoint on a number of issues arising in D-brane model building. More generally, we give orientihole generalizations of recently derived wall crossing formulae, and conjecture a relation to the topological string analogous to the OSV conjecture, but with a linear rather than a quadratic identification of partition functions.

description: Working within the theory of modified Gauss-Bonnet gravity, we show that FLRW--like power--law solutions only exist for a very special class of f(G)theories. Furthermore, we point out that any transition from decelerated to accelerated expansion must pass through G=0, and no function f(G) that is differentiable at this point can admit both a decelerating power--law solution and any accelerating solution. This strongly constrains the cosmological viability of f(G)-gravity, since it may not be possible to obtain an expansion history of the universe which is compatible with observations. We explain why the same issue does not occur in f(R)-gravity and discuss possible caveats for the case of f(G)-gravity.

The biology of Rattus rattoides with particular reference to the role of olfaction in reproduction : a laboratory study
Creators: name: Xu, Zhongjian
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: Rattus rattoides is a pest widely spreading over south-eastern China. In Fujian Province it destroys one fifth of the crops (rice, wheat, sweat potato, peanut, sugar cane, banana and other vegetables) in the field every year. A good range of pesticides have been applied to minimize the pest's damage, yet its biology is hardly studied. This preliminary study is to investigate some aspects of reproductive biology and the roles of olfactory cues in the reproduction of this rodent. All the experiments were carried out in Fujian, P. R. China during June 1990 to June 1991. The results of the investigations suggest that this species has the potential to be tamed as an experimental laboratory species and olfactory cues from an adult male or female play important roles in the growth and sexual development of young of the two sexes. 1. The average and the maximum body weights were examined. The growth rate of male and female rats before and after weaning were observed. No obvious difference has been found in body size and weight between sexes in adults of this species. The reproductive ability of the females in laboratory was found similar in different months with two low breeding rates in February and August. 2. The sexual maturation of the males developed in three stages: (a), the elevation of testosterone titre in blood; (b ), the growth of the body and testes reached a plateau and mature sperm had been transported into the convoluted ducts; (c), the cessation of the growth of epididymes and the success of reproduction. 3. The timing of the onset of puberty (vaginal opening) of females was found to be variable when measured in different seasons, but the body weights at the time of attaining puberty were similar. The onset of puberty of the females was accelerated by cohabiting with adult males or by the olfactory cues from adult males, and was delayed in the presence of olfactory cues from adult females. 4. Mean lengths of oestrous cycles of the adult females in different seasons were not significantly different from each other. Olfactory cues from adult males or housing under group conditions did not alter the lengths of the females' oestrous cycles. 5. Group-living significantly retarded the growth and sexual development of young males. Olfactory cues from adult males greatly promoted the growth and development of testes in young conspecifics.

description: We establish the existence of a transfer, which is compatible with Kloosterman integrals, between Schwartz functions on GL(n,R) and Schwartz functions on the variety of non-degenerate Hermitian forms. Namely, we consider an integral of a Schwartz function on GL(n,R) along the orbits of the two sided action of the groups of upper and lower unipotent matrices twisted by a non-degenerate character. This gives a smooth function on the torus. We prove that the space of all functions obtained in such a way coincides with the space that is constructed analogously when GL(n,R) is replaced with the variety of non-degenerate hermitian forms. We also obtain similar results for gl(n,R). The non-Archimedean case is done by Jacquet and our proof follows the same lines. However we have to face additional essential difficulties that appear only in the Archimedean case.

description: The statistical model assuming chemical equilibriumand local strangeness conservation describes most of the observed features of strange particle production from SIS up to RHIC. Deviations are found as the maximum in the measured K+/pi+ ratio is much sharper than in the model calculations. At the incident energy of the maximum, the statistical model shows that freeze out changes regime from one being dominated by baryons at the lower energies toward one being dominated by mesons. It will be shown how deviations from the usual freeze-out curve influence the various particle ratios. Furthermore, other observables exhibit also changes just in this energy regime.

description: In this article we describe Professor, a new program for tuning model parameters of Monte Carlo event generators to experimental data by parameterising the per-bin generator response to parameter variations and numerically optimising the parameterised behaviour. Simulated experimental analysis data is obtained using the Rivet analysis toolkit. This paper presents the Professor procedure and implementation, illustrated with the application of the method to tunes of the Pythia 6 event generator to data from the LEP/SLD and Tevatron experiments. These tunes are substantial improvements on existing standard choices, and are recommended as base tunes for LHC experiments, to be themselves systematically improved upon when early LHC data is available.

description: While the high-entropy wind (HEW) of Type II supernovae remains one of the more promising sites for the rapid neutron-capture (r-) process, hydrodynamic simulations have yet to reproduce the astrophysical conditions under which the latter occurs. We have performed large-scale network calculations within an extended parameter range of the HEW, seeking to identify or to constrain the necessary conditions for a full reproduction of all r-process residuals N_{r,\odot}=N_{\odot}-N_{s,\odot} by comparing the results with recent astronomical observations. A superposition of weighted entropy trajectories results in an excellent reproduction of the overall N_{r,\odot}-pattern beyond Sn. For the lighter elements, from the Fe-group via Sr-Y-Zr to Ag, our HEW calculations indicate a transition from the need for clearly different sources (conditions/sites) to a possible co-production with r-process elements, provided that a range of entropies are contributing. This explains recent halo-star observations of a clear non-correlation of Zn and Ge and a weak correlation of Sr - Zr with heavier r-process elements. Moreover, new observational data on Ru and Pd seem to confirm also a partial correlation with Sr as well as the main r-process elements (e.g. Eu).

Lo studio prende avvio dall?esame delle fonti di eterointegrazione previste dal codice civile, al fine di inquadrarne i limiti e di definire i confini dei poteri attribuiti al giudice, volgendo lo sguardo anche verso altri ordinamenti di Civil law, come quello francese, e di Common Law, come quello inglese, oltre che ai progetti volti all?armonizzazione della legislazione europea. Successivamente ampio spazio � dedicato al meccanismo di riduzione equitativa della clausola penale e al dibattito, sviluppatosi in dottrina e in giurisprudenza, intorno all?art. 1384 c.c., disposizione che, a seguito di una interpretazione evolutiva, pu� oggi considerarsi ordinaria e non pi� eccezionale. In seguito si prende in considerazione l?integrazione nel ?nuovo diritto dei contratti?, che si � affiancato, anche sotto l?impulso della normativa europea, alla disciplina contenuta nel codice civile, consentendone inedite letture. In particolare vengono studiati i contratti dei consumatori e la disciplina della nullit� delle clausole vessatorie, nonch� alcuni profili dei contratti tra professionisti, con l?obiettivo di valutare se e in quale misura si possa parlare di evoluzione dell?art. 1374 c.c., con speciale riferimento all?equit�.

Drawing the betweenness of place
Creators: name: Smith, NM
Publisher: name: University Of Tasmania
Year: 2023

description: This research explores the practice of creativity as a means to illuminating the significant yet under explored concept of betweenness. It consists of a theoretical interpretation of the concept and its intersection with related concepts, augmented by interview material drawn from participants experiencing the betweenness of everyday journeying. Research participants were drawn from the Tasmanian arts community and included practitioners of visual arts, music, dance, literature, architecture, poetry and film. Creative production itself involves crossings-over; attempts to transcend the mundane by entering emotional and intellectual terrain that is unfamiliar and of unknown status ‚Äö- between what is known and what is yet to be known. For this reason, art practitioners were deemed to be particularly suited to the research needs of the project. The thesis explores participants' descriptions of their everyday journeys between two places in order to answer the following questions. Is the inchoate experience, the numinous sensation that seems to characterise commonly undertaken journeys between two places, the emotional essence of betweenness? Given that the inchoate and numinous that qualify betweenness reside at the limits of representation, how might one represent these experiences? This might be described as 'representing the unrepresentable ‚Äö- without representing it'. The device that I use is the practice of drawing. Rather than representing the betweenness, I use the practice of drawing as a device to 'give presence' to the betweenness. The research uses a phenomenological approach to elucidate individuals' perceptions of their journeys between two places, and then gathers observations into groups which, together with a review of the literature and autoethnographic explorations, reveal several of many possible components of betweenness. Taken together these comprise a drawing of the betweenness of place. The responses are visual and evocative while also affective in the more discursive sense of the term. Stress is on the process, then, and no 'hard, definitive' conclusion as to the nature of betweenness is reached.

description: Disclosing the structure of disks surrounding Herbig AeBe stars is important to expand our understanding of the formation and early evolution of stars and planets. We aim at revealing the sub-AU disk structure around the 10 Myr old Herbig Be star HD100546 and at investigating the origin of its near and mid-infrared excess. We used AMBER/VLTI observations to resolve the K-band emission and to constrain the location and composition of the hot dust in the innermost disk. Combining AMBER observations with photometric and MIDI/VLTI measurements from the litterature, we revisit the disk geometry using a passive disk model based on 3D radiative transfer. We propose a model that includes a tenuous inner disk made of micron-sized dust grains, a gap, and a massive optically thick outer disk, that successfully reproduces the interferometric data and the SED. We locate the bulk of the K-band emission at ~0.26 AU. Assuming that this emission originates from silicate, we show that micron-sized grains are required to enable the dust to survive at such a distance from the star. As a consequence, more than 40% of the K-band flux is related to scattering, showing that direct thermal emission is not sufficient to explain the near-infrared excess. In the massive outer disk, large grains in the mid-plane are responsible for the mm emission while a surface layer of small grains allows the mid and far infrared excesses to be reproduced. Such vertical structure may be an evidence for sedimentation. The observations are consistent with a model that includes a gap until ~13 AU and a total dust mass of ~0.008 lunar mass inside it. These values together with the derived scale height (~2.5 AU) and temperature (~220 K) at the inner edge of the outer disk (r=13 AU), are consistent with recent CO observations.

description: As society becomes more globally diverse, institutions of higher education have increased diversity programming for student success. Student openness to diversity and challenge has been found to have a large impact on changes in student attitudes, beliefs, and actions in the direction of greater tolerance to individual differences. This study uses regression analysis of survey data to measure (1) openness to diversity, and (2) diversity experience for students enrolled in the College of Agriculture at Kansas State University during the Fall Semester of 2020. Regression results indicate that student openness to diversity and challenge was found to be statistically associated with participation in diversity workshops, diversity class activities, and other personal and academic variables. The major implication of the statistical results is that there is an opportunity to influence student openness to diversity and challenge through enhanced programming for diversity appreciation and understanding as part of the university experience.
SYNTHESIS OF SELECTIVE C-TYPE LECTIN ANTAGONIST GLYCOMIMETICS
Creators: name: MEDVE, LAURA ANETT
Publisher: name: Universit� degli Studi di Milano
Year: 2018

description: In this thesis we have tackled the problem of identifying high-affinity, selective CLR ligands with two different approaches: in the first approach, we synthesized a diversity library and screened it in microarray format against a group of human CLRs; in the second approach we proceeded to the computer-aided design of a high affinity ligand for the dendritic cell CLR DC-SIGN. In the first approach, we prepared a mannosylated (based on the structure of Manalpha1-2Man) and fucosylated glycomimetic library that was printed on microarray chips. We optimized and validated the proper presentation of the glycomimetics with plant, fungal and bacterial lectins of known specificity. The glycomimetic chip was then screened against available human CLRs and the results were further assessed in complementary assays, such as SPR. In the second approach we targeted the dendritic cell-specific receptor DC-SIGN, which is responsible for the uptake and dissemination of numerous infectious pathogens, such as HIV-1, Dengue, Ebola, M. tuberculosis, etc. Selective inhibitors of the lectin have high potential as anti-microbial therapeutics, but so far, only a handful of monovalent ligands have reached low micromolar affinities. A virtual fragment screening campaign indicated a novel, exploitable binding pocket near the primary sugar binding site of DC-SIGN. Glycomimetic ligands previously developed in our group were functionalized in the appropriate position to reach this pocket, and modified with various substituents in order to form additional interactions. One of the highest affinity DC-SIGN ligands up-to-date was synthesized and X-ray structure analysis proved the in silico predicted interactions with the amino acid residues around the new binding site.
ARHGAP22 DISRUPTION AFFECTS RAC1 SIGNALING PATHWAY AND RESULTS IN ALTERED FORMATION AND FUNCTION OF GLUTAMATERGIC SYNAPSES IN MOUSE HIPPOCAMPUS
Creators: name: LONGATTI, ANNA

description: The regulation of actin cytoskeleton operated by RhoGTPases is crucial for neuronal morphogenesis, especially for neurite elongation and branching, synaptogenesis and synaptic plasticity. Dysregulation of RhoGTPases leads to neuronal dysfunctions including intellectual disability, schizofrenia and Alzheimer disease. Rac1 is a member of the RhoGTPase family and it has been demonstrated to positively regulate dendritogenesis and dendritic spines formation and maturation. As well as other RhoGTPases, Rac1 activity is regulated principally by two kinds of molecules: GEFs (guanine nucleotide exchange factors) and GAPs (GTPase activating proteins). Arhgap22 protein is a specific Rac1-Gap that promotes the inactivation of Rac1. Although it was previously reported that Arhgap22 transcripts is present in murine brain, its functions in neurons have not been studied yet. Here, we reported that Arhgap22 is expressed in mouse brain in a precise spatio-temporal window. Moreover, taking advantage of an animal mouse model knock out (KO) for Arhgap22, we described the effects of its silencing in hippocampal neurons. In vivo, Arhgap22 disruption led to an increase level of activated Rac1 and its downstream pathways, with a subsequent increase in dendritic spine density in CA1 region of hippocampus. Additionally, Arhgap22 lacking mice presented reduced AMPA receptors in the post-synaptic density of excitatory synapses and this alteration was reflected by the impairment in the induction and mainteinance of long-term potentiation (LTP). Arhgap22 KO mice presented also defects in cognitive tasks and decreased anxiety-like behaviours. In a nutshell, the results of this work suggested that Arhgap22 is a key regulator of Rac1 signaling and that affects the maturation of excitatory synapses, synaptic plasticity and cognitive functions.

The second aim was to determine the extent to which 'therapist variables' have been adequately considered for their effect on implementation and outcome in workplace SMIs. The inclusion criteria comprised empirical studies: (a) published in the English language, (b) focused on analysis of a workplace SMI aimed at changing employee's response to job stress and (c) involving an SMI that includes face to face contact between the employee and the therapist/program provider. Forty-four studies were included in the analysis and of these around half evaluated between three and five components of process evaluation. Reporting about fidelity, dose delivered and implementation components, was more challenging for researchers. Around 50% of studies linked a component of process evaluation to outcome but only six studies provided a quantitative link. The majority of studies involved an external therapist, most commonly a psychologist, and most studies provided some information about therapist recruitment and background training. However, therapist demographic information, information about therapist adherence to protocol and therapeutic alliance was less often reported. It is encouraging to observe that several authors did consider the impact of therapist variables in their research and linked therapist variable to outcomes. It is recommended that future research continue to focus on the systematic planning, monitoring and assessment of process components in programme implementation, with the specific aim of identifying the process predictors of SMI outcomes. The therapist is hypothesised to be an essential component of an SMI and therefore researchers are encouraged to include therapist variables in their process evaluation framework.
Legislating for urban aesthetics : a case study of the civic design panel Vancouver , B.C
Creators: name: Vanin, Daniel
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: In the past several years many authors and critics of the urban scene have denounced the visual chaos that is now many North American cities. This condition has been attributed to several historical factors as well as to some present negative policies and practices by governments which affect the quality of the urban environment. Despite this traditional lack of concern, current trends point to a new and enlightened interest in the aesthetic quality of our cities. Various legislative acts have been passed by senior governments to enable certain municipalities to adopt local regulations and ordinances based on aesthetic objectives in order to control the visual, character of both public and private development. The historical evolution of this type of legislation is outlined, as well as the judicial attitude affecting its legality in the face of traditional conflicts between individual property rights and the inherent regulatory power of the municipality. In addition, special attention is given to the administration of this type of legislation, normally effected by an architectural board of review system which is empowered to assess the aesthetic merits of a project's design before approval to build is granted. The author affirms, however, that contrary to traditional concepts urban aesthetics in the architecture-urban fields today are based on broader and more comprehensive design criteria than merely the arrangement of an individual building's form or architectural "style". He further hypothesizes that the role of architectural review boards must be broadened to include the functional as well as the aesthetic aspects of design review in order to improve the city's total physical environment. A case study of the Vancouver Civic Design Panel is used to test the validity of the hypothesis as well as to assess the merits of the design panel system in principle. Within the context of the case study, the conclusions reached generally confirm the author's original affirmation and hypothesis.

description: Let us consider the process $(X_t^{(α)})_{t\in[0,T)}$ given by the SDE $dX_t^{(α)} = -\fracα{T-t}X_t^{(α)} dt+ dB_t$, $t\in[0,T)$, where $α\in R$, $T\in(0,\infty)$, and $(B_t)_{t\geq 0}$ is a standard Wiener process. In case of $α>0$ the process $X^{(α)}$ is known as an $α$-Wiener bridge, in case of $α=1$ as the usual Wiener bridge. We prove that for all $α,β\in R$, $α\neβ$, the probability measures induced by the processes $X^{(α)}$ and $X^{(β)}$ are singular on C[0,T). Further, we investigate regularity properties of $X_t^{(α)}$ as $t\uparrow T$.

Protein variation of some pacific euphausiids in relation to environmental stability : An intraspecific and interspecific study
Creators: name: Bromley, Gregory J.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: The degree of biochemical variability is, in many cases, thought to be related to environmental stability. Intraspecific protein variation was examined in Euphausia pacifica using starch gel electrophoresis. Specimens were collected from eight oceanic and three neritic stations over a wide geographic area. The interspecific aspect of this study examined the general protein patterns of five species of North Pacific euphausiids. Temperature, salinity and oxygen were monitored, at the time of biological collections, in order to distinguish between water types. Two major protein patterns characterize E. pacifica from the different regions. The pattern possessing the greatest number of bands occurs in highest frequency in areas of greatest environmental instability (as characterized by temperature, salinity, and oxygen); the highest frequency occurrence of the pattern with the lowest number of bands is in environmentally stable regions. The expression of each pattern appears related to the degree of fluctuation of the physical parameters monitored, but these parameters are not suggested as the direct cause of which pattern is expressed. The physical parameters serve only as a tool for characterizing the stability of a region. Analysis of the electrophoretic protein patterns from five species of euphausiids, Euphausia pacifica, E. gibboides, Thysanoessa spinifera, T. inspinata and Nematoscelis difficilis, revealed that each species possesses a unique protein pattern. The interspecific and intergeneric similarities of protein patterns parallel the existing morphological taxonomy.

description: This resource is a single blog post created as part of the Day of Archaeology initiative. The Day of Archaeology project aimed to provide a window into the daily lives of archaeologists from all over the world. The project asked people working, studying or volunteering in the archaeological world to participate in a 'Day of Archaeology' each year by recording their day and sharing it through text, images or video on the Day of Archaeology blog.
The project asked anyone with a personal, professional or voluntary interest in archaeology to get involved, and help highlight the reasons why archaeology is vital to protect the past and inform our futures. The resulting Day of Archaeology project archive demonstrates the wide variety of work the archaeological profession undertakes day-to-day across the globe, and helps to raise public awareness of the relevance and importance of archaeology to the modern world.
The first ever Day of Archaeology was held in 2011 and, since then, the project had thousands of archaeologists take part in the event, from those working in the field through to specialists working in laboratories and behind computers. The last Day of Archaeology was on Friday 28th July 2017.
