Armorseliza

description: Armorseliza gen. nov.
Type species. Flatoides lignaria Walker, 1851; by present designation.
Etymology. The generic name is a combination of the words: “armor” meaning a special protective clothing over people’s bodies and the name of the genus Seliza, which means this new genus resembles Seliza. The gender is feminine.
Diagnosis. The genus Armorseliza differs from the genus Seliza Stål, 1862 by the following characters (Stål, 1862a): tegmina with a very short vein Scp+R at base cell (tegmina without vein Scp+R at base cell in Seliza); anterior margin of head evenly convex (anterior margin of head conical in Seliza); male genital style isosceles triangular (male genital style semicircular in Seliza); phallic complex with processes branched (phallic complex with processes not branched in Seliza).
Description. Small-sized planthoppers (8–10 mm long). Overall color dark brown or black. Head (Fig. 3) narrower than pronotum. Vertex wider than long, anterior margin evenly convex or truncate in dorsal view. Frons broader than long, usually with longitudinal median carina; lateral margins convex or obtusely angled, apical portion of frons concave. Pronotum (Figs 3, 4) with anterior margin evenly convex, sometimes concave in the middle, median carina weak; postocular emineneces strongly conical. Tegmina (Fig. 2) usually 2 times longer than wide, costal membrane broader than costal cell; costal margin slightly sinuate before apex, apical margin convex with one subapical line of crossveins; three longitudinal veins arising from basal cell (Scp+R, Mp, CuA), vein Scp+RA crossing elevated bulla. Metatibia with two lateral spines.
Male genitalia. Pygofer (Fig. 6) ring-like. Genital style (Fig. 6) isosceles triangular, with one process at dorsocaudal portion. Anal tube apex bipartite in dorsal view. Phallic complex (Fig. 7) slightly arched; periandrium tubular, with lateral emargination moderately wide, dorsolateral emargination shallow, dorsal lobe produced caudad into large membranous plates, lateral lobe with a large process, ventral lobe slender. Aedeagus (Figs 12, 14, 16, 19, 22, 25) bipartite.
Distribution. Oriental region (China).

description: We describe an experiment on an underdamped mechanical oscillator used as an information engine. The system is equivalent to an inertial Brownian particle confined in a harmonic potential whose center is controlled by a feedback protocol which measures the particle position at a specific sampling frequency $1/τ$. Several feedback protocols are applied and the power generated by the engine is measured as a function of the oscillator parameters and the sampling frequency. The optimal parameters are then determined. The results are compared to the theoretical predictions and numerical simulations on overdamped systems. We highlight the specific effects of inertia, which can be used to increase the amount of power extracted by the engine. In the regime of large $τ$, we show that the produced work has a tight bound determined by information theories.

description: We investigate the invertible and non-invertible symmetries of topological finite-group gauge theories in general spacetime dimensions, where the gauge group can be abelian or non-abelian. We focus in particular on the 0-form symmetry. The gapped domain walls that generate these symmetries are specified by boundary conditions for the gauge fields on either side of the wall. We investigate the fusion rules of these symmetries and their action on other topological defects including the Wilson lines, magnetic fluxes, and gapped boundaries. We illustrate these constructions with various novel examples, including non-invertible electric-magnetic duality symmetry in 3+1d $\mathbb{Z}_2$ gauge theory, and non-invertible analogs of electric-magnetic duality symmetry in non-abelian finite-group gauge theories. In particular, we discover topological domain walls that obey Fibonacci fusion rules in 2+1d gauge theory with dihedral gauge group of order 8. We also generalize the Cheshire string defect to analogous defects of general codimensions and gauge groups and show that they form a closed fusion algebra.

description: The interplay between quantum and thermal fluctuations can induce rich phenomena at finite temperatures in strongly correlated fermion systems. Here we report a {\it numerically exact} auxiliary-field quantum Monte Carlo (AFQMC) study for the finite-temperature properties of three-dimensional repulsive Hubbard model at half filling. We concentrate on the complete temperature-interaction strength phase diagram of the model, which contains the low-temperature antiferromagnetic (AFM) long-range ordered phase and metal-insulator crossover (MIC) in the paramagnetic phase. Enabling access to unprecedented system sizes up to $20^3$, we achieve highly accurate results of the Néel transition temperature for representative values of on-site interaction $U$ via finite-size analysis of AFM structure factor. To quantitatively characterize the MIC above the Néel transition, we have developed fully new techniques allowing to compute the thermal entropy versus $U$ at fixed temperature and to directly calculate the $U$-derivative of double occupancy in AFQMC simulations. Then combining variously thermodynamic and dynamical observables, we establish an efficient scheme to precisely determine the boundaries for the MIC by cross-checking different observables. We also demonstrate the temperature dependence of many commonly used observables. Away from half filling, we explore the behavior of the sign problem and AFM spin correlation versus hole doping, and demonstrate the persistance of Néel AFM ordered phase to finite doping with limited results.

description: Orthocis Casey, 1898
The genus Orthocis appears to be a monophyletic group with a more or less cosmopolitan distribution, but the characters separating it from species of Cis are relatively subtle. In general, species in this genus are characterised by having an elongate, more or less parallel-sided, slightly flattened body, subglabrous upper surfaces, moderately long, flat or slightly tumid prosternum, simple protibial apices in both sexes, an apical deviation in the internal edge of one elytron, so that a small flange is exposed, and a lack of frontoclypeal or pronotal modifications in the male. In addition, most of the species with known hosts feed primarily on the basidiomes of Auriculariaceae.

description: Optical phase curves of hot Jupiters can reveal global scattering properties. We implement a Bayesian inference framework for optical phase curves with flux contributions from: reflected light from a potentially inhomogeneous atmosphere, thermal emission, ellipsoidal variations, Doppler beaming, and stellar rotation via a Gaussian process in the time domain. We probe for atmospheric homogeneity and time-variability using the reflected light inferences for highly precise Kepler light curves of five hot Jupiters. We also investigate the scattering properties which constrain the most likely condensates in the inhomogeneous atmospheres. Cross validation prefers inhomogeneous albedo distributions for Kepler-7 b and Kepler-41 b, and a weak preference for inhomogeneity for KOI-13 b. None of the five planets exhibit significant variations in geometric albedo on one-year timescales, in agreement with theoretical expectations. We show that analytic reflected light phase curves with isotropic multiple scattering are in excellent agreement with full Rayleigh multiple scattering calculations, allowing for accelerated and analytic inference. In a case study of Kepler-41 b, we identify perovskite, forsterite, and enstatite as possible scattering species consistent with the reflected light phase curves, with condensate particle radii in the range 0.01-0.1 micron.

description: In this work we investigate the merger rate of primordial black hole-neutron star (PBH-NS) binaries in two widely-studied modified gravity (MG) models: Hu-Sawicki $f(R)$ gravity and the normal branch of Dvali-Gabadadze-Porrati (nDGP) gravity. In our analysis, we take into account the effects of MG on the halo properties including halo mass function, halo concentration parameter, halo density profile, and velocity dispersion of dark matter particles. We find that these MG models, due to their stronger gravitational field induced by an effective fifth force, predict enhanced merger rates compared to general relativity. This enhancement is found to be redshift-dependent and sensitive to model parameters, PBH mass and fraction. Assuming PBH mass range of $5-50 M_{\odot}$, we compare the predicted merger rate of PBH-NS binaries with those inferred from LIGO-Virgo-KAGRA observations of gravitational waves (GWs). We find that the merger rates obtained from MG models will be consistent with the GW observations, if the abundance of PBHs is relatively large, with the exact amount depending on the MG model and its parameter values, as well as PBH mass. We also establish upper limits on the abundance of PBHs in these MG frameworks while comparing with the existing non-GW constraints, which can potentially impose even more stringent constraints.

description: The spatial distribution of galaxy clusters is a valuable probe for inferring fundamental cosmological parameters. We measured the clustering properties of dark matter haloes from the \textsc{Pinocchio} simulations, in the redshift range $0.2 < z < 1.0$ and with virial masses $M_\mathrm{vir} > 10^{14} M_\odot \, h^{-1}$, which reproduce the expected mass selection of galaxy cluster samples. The past-light cones we analysed have an angular size of 60 degrees, which approximately corresponds to a quarter of the sky. We adopted a linear power spectrum model, accounting for nonlinear corrections at the baryon acoustic oscillations scale, to perform a comparative study between 3D and 2D tomographic clustering. For this purpose, we modelled the multipoles of the 3D two-point correlation function, $ξ(r)$, the angular correlation function, $w(θ)$, and the angular power spectrum, $C_\ell$. We considered observational effects such as redshift-space distortions, produced by the peculiar velocities of tracers, and redshift errors. We found that photometric redshift errors have a more severe consequence on the 3D than on the 2D clustering, as they affect only the radial separation between haloes and not the angular one, with a relevant impact on the 3D multipoles. Using a Bayesian analysis, we explored the posterior distributions of the considered probes with different tomographic strategies, in the $Ω_m-σ_8$ plane, focusing on the summary parameter $S_8\equiv σ_8\sqrt{Ω_m/0.3}$. Our results show that in the presence of large photometric errors the 2D clustering can provide competitive cosmological constraints with respect to the full 3D clustering statistics, and can be successfully applied to analyse the galaxy cluster catalogues from the ongoing and forthcoming Stage-III and Stage-IV photometric redshift surveys.

description: The phase-field crystal (PFC) model describes crystal structures at diffusive timescales through a periodic, microscopic density field. It has been proposed to model elasticity in crystal growth and encodes most of the phenomenology related to the mechanical properties of crystals like dislocation nucleation and motion, grain boundaries, and elastic or interface-energy anisotropies. To overcome limitations to small systems, a coarse-grained formulation focusing on slowly varying complex amplitudes of the microscopic density field has been devised. This amplitude-PFC (APFC) model describes well elasticity and dislocations while approximating microscopic features and being limited in describing large-angle grain boundaries. We present here seminal concepts for a hybrid multiscale PFC-APFC framework that combines the coarse-grained description of the APFC model in bulk-like crystallites while exploiting PFC resolution at dislocations, grain boundaries, and interfaces or surfaces. This is achieved by coupling the two models via an advanced discretization based on the Fourier spectral method and allowing for local solution updates. This discretization also generalizes the description of boundary conditions for PFC models. We showcase the framework capabilities through two-dimensional benchmark simulations. We also show that the proposed formulation allows for overcoming the limitations of the APFC model in describing large-angle grain boundaries.

description: Game Description Language (GDL) provides a standardized way to express diverse games in a machine-readable format, enabling automated game simulation, and evaluation. While previous research has explored game description generation using search-based methods, generating GDL descriptions from natural language remains a challenging task. This paper presents a novel framework that leverages Large Language Models (LLMs) to generate grammatically accurate game descriptions from natural language. Our approach consists of two stages: first, we gradually generate a minimal grammar based on GDL specifications; second, we iteratively improve the game description through grammar-guided generation. Our framework employs a specialized parser that identifies valid subsequences and candidate symbols from LLM responses, enabling gradual refinement of the output to ensure grammatical correctness. Experimental results demonstrate that our iterative improvement approach significantly outperforms baseline methods that directly use LLM outputs.

ANALYSIS OF CONDITION MICROCIRCULATORY LEVEL OF THE MAXILLOFACIAL AREA BY USING LASER DOPPLER FLOWMETRY
Creators: name: Maksymov, D. Y.
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2022

description: Laser doppler flowmetry allows you to measure microcirculation in human and animal tissues. This approach was first used in the 1980s and continues to be used because it is non-invasive and easy to use after a period of study. The principle of laser doppler flowmetry is based on the interaction of light with tissue on the principle of the Doppler effect on laser radiation. The aim of the study: is to identify the possibility of using Doppler laser flowmetry in dentistry

The nature and frequency of mental health service utilisation among police reported adult male perpetrators and victims of family violence
Creators: name: Altwaijiri, Israa
Publisher: name: Swinburne
Year: 2024

description: This thesis not only provides the first detailed analysis of mental health service use patterns among Australian men flagged by police for family violence but also highlights the significant and complex mental health needs of these individuals. Using extensive Victorian administrative data, this data-linkage study reveals higher rates of service use compared to the general male population, particularly among those with persistent histories of family violence. The findings emphasise the necessity for enhanced, coordinated interventions to meet these needs, ultimately fostering better mental health outcomes for affected individuals and contributing to safer communities.

Paratrichapus

description: Paratrichapus Scott
Scott (1928) described this genus based mainly on the 3-segmented tarsi combined with some features resembling those in Xylographus Mellié and Ropalodontus Mellié. Based on an examination of the types of Paratrichapus sechellarum Scott, Sandoval-Gomez et al. (2014) noted that the tarsi in this species were actually composed of four tarsomeres and added two more species to the genus: Cis fultoni Broun, 1886 (New Zealand) and Xylographus javanus Pic, 1937 (Indonesia). These authors also included a table showing that species of Paratrichapus differ from those of Xylographus in lacking a dorsal tooth on the left mandible and having a much shorter first labial palpomere, single, deep, coarse pronotal punctation (dual in Xylographus), biconcave (not concave) prosternum, relatively long elytra (as compared to the pronotum), socketed protibial spines extending from the apex to at most the middle and the first two tarsomeres subcylindrical and contiguous.
Souza-Gonçalves et al. (2018) expanded the limits of this genus, adding Cis lobipes Broun, 1895 from New Zealand and described five new Australian species. As noted by the above authors, most of the Australian Paratrichapus have relatively limited distributions. Paratrichapus christmasensis and P. peckorum occur on Christmas and Lord Howe Island, respectively, P. metallonotum occurs on Cape York Peninsula, and P. peckorum is known from two localities along coastal NSW. Paratrichapus australis, on the other hand, has a relatively broad distribution, extending from TAS and VIC to ACT, NSW and southern QLD. Males are quite rare and it is possible that thelytoky occurs in this species.

subject: Health promotion

description: A comprehensive set of measures is needed to reduce smoking prevalence and meet the Government’s goal of making New Zealand a smokefree nation by 2025. One of the most effective tools to reduce tobacco consumption and prevalence is to increase the price of tobacco. This is often achieved through targeted increases of the excise tax on tobacco products.

Respondents in the 2012 Health and Lifestyles Survey (HLS) answered a few questions on their opinion on tobacco taxation.

Type species. Menoscelis saginata Mulsant, 1850, by subsequent designation of Crotch (1874).
Diagnosis. Menoscelis is a Neotropical genus that is structurally similar to Diazonema Weise, 1926, but differs from all other genera of the tribe in the highly modified protibia, angulate near its base (Figs 5 D–E) and the transverse female genital plate with spoon–like setae near the apex. Diazonema presents a combination of short and compressed protibia, and a transverse female genital plate lacking spoon–like setae near the apex.
In addition to the generic characters described by Gordon & Canepari (2008), species of this genus have other useful characters that aid in their recognition: body usually large (4.5–7.5 mm) and rounded, moderately to strongly convex. Dorsal surface glabrous or pubescent, maculate or not. Prosternum process about half the coxal diamenter, surface with complete or incomplete carinae joined anteriorly, forming a triangle (Figs 5 C, 6E). Prosternal carinae often joined, sometimes connected to the anterior margin of the prosternum by a single carina (Figs 8 A–G, 9A–E). Epipleura large, external margin explanate (Figs 5 H, 6H). Protibia flattened, medially emarginate or with parallel sides, tibial groove deep, long, not flanged posteriorly, angulate near base (Figs 5 D–E, 6F–G); meso- and metatibia narrow, medially emarginate or with parallel sides, not flanged, with shallow tibial groove (Figs 5 F, 6I). Abdominal postcoxal line incomplete, recurved or slightly recurved (Figs 5 G, 6J). Parameres symmetrical; basal lobe asymmetrical. Sipho slender with well-developed, T-shaped siphonal capsule (Figs 1 E–G, 4D–F). Coxites transverse with spoon-like setae near apex, styles well developed, with or without apical setae; infundibulum lacking; sperm duct simple, uniform in diameter (Figs1 H, 2E, 3F). Spermatheca with rounded cornu and narrow at base; distal capsule adjacent to cornu or sperm duct (Figs 2 F, 3G).
Remarks. Two species, M. angeloi sp. nov. and M. cordata sp. nov., lack the protibial emargination but are considered members of Menoscelis due to the described characters and male and female genital patterns.

description: Background: Cell segmentation in bright-field histological slides is a crucial topic in medical image analysis. Having access to accurate segmentation allows researchers to examine the relationship between cellular morphology and clinical observations. Unfortunately, most segmentation methods known today are limited to nuclei and cannot segmentate the cytoplasm.
 Material & Methods: We present a new network architecture Cyto R-CNN that is able to accurately segment whole cells (with both the nucleus and the cytoplasm) in bright-field images. We also present a new dataset CytoNuke, consisting of multiple thousand manual annotations of head and neck squamous cell carcinoma cells. Utilizing this dataset, we compared the performance of Cyto R-CNN to other popular cell segmentation algorithms, including QuPath's built-in algorithm, StarDist and Cellpose. To evaluate segmentation performance, we calculated AP50, AP75 and measured 17 morphological and staining-related features for all detected cells. We compared these measurements to the gold standard of manual segmentation using the Kolmogorov-Smirnov test.
 Results: Cyto R-CNN achieved an AP50 of 58.65% and an AP75 of 11.56% in whole-cell segmentation, outperforming all other methods (QuPath $19.46/0.91\%$; StarDist $45.33/2.32\%$; Cellpose $31.85/5.61\%$). Cell features derived from Cyto R-CNN showed the best agreement to the gold standard ($\bar{D} = 0.15$) outperforming QuPath ($\bar{D} = 0.22$), StarDist ($\bar{D} = 0.25$) and Cellpose ($\bar{D} = 0.23$).
 Conclusion: Our newly proposed Cyto R-CNN architecture outperforms current algorithms in whole-cell segmentation while providing more reliable cell measurements than any other model. This could improve digital pathology workflows, potentially leading to improved diagnosis. Moreover, our published dataset can be used to develop further models in the future.
