description: CRISPR-Cas systems provide bacteria and archaea with adaptive immunity against invading genetic elements, such as plasmids, bacteriophages and archaeal viruses. They consist of cas genes and CRISPR loci, which store genetic memories of previously encountered invaders as short sequences termed spacers. Spacers determine the specificity of CRISPR-Cas defence and immunity can be gained or updated by the addition of new spacers into CRISPR loci. There are two main routes to spacer acquisition, which are known as naïve and primed CRISPR adaptation. Naïve CRISPR adaptation involves the de novo formation of immunity, independent of pre-existing spacers. In contrast, primed CRISPR adaptation (priming) uses existing spacers to enhance the acquisition of new spacers. Priming typically results in spacer acquisition from locations near the site of target recognition by the existing (priming) spacer. Primed CRISPR adaptation has been observed in several type I CRISPR-Cas systems and it is potentially widespread. However, experimental evidence is unavailable for some subtypes, and for most systems, priming has only been shown in a small number of hosts. There is also no current evidence of priming by other CRISPR-Cas types. Here, we used a bioinformatic approach to search for evidence of priming in diverse CRISPR-Cas systems. By analysing the clustering of spacers acquired from phages, prophages and archaeal viruses, including strand and directional biases between subsequently acquired spacers, we demonstrate that two patterns of primed CRISPR adaptation dominate in type I systems. In addition, we find evidence of a priming-like pathway in type II CRISPR-Cas systems.

description: The effect of decoherence is analysed for a free particle, interacting with an environment via a dissipative coupling. The interaction between the particle and the environment occurs by a coupling of the position operator of the particle with the environmental degrees of freedom. By examining the exact solution of the density matrix equation one finds that the density matrix becomes completely diagonal in momentum with time while the position space density matrix remains nonlocal. This establishes the momentum basis as the emergent 'preferred basis' selected by the environment which is contrary to the general expectation that position should emerge as the preferred basis since the coupling with the environment is via the position coordinate.

description: Ende November 2022 veröffentlichte die Bundesregierung ihre „Nationale Strategie gegen Antisemitismus und für jüdisches Leben“ (NASAS). Die Antisemitismusforschung wird darin nur randständig behandelt. Der vorliegende Beitrag zeigt am Beispiel des Forschungsprojekts „Net Olam. Jüdische Friedhöfe im Fokus von Antisemitismus und Prävention“, welchen Beitrag Forschung beim Kampf gegen Antisemitismus leisten kann und möchte. In dem Projekt werden Schändungen jüdischer Friedhöfe in Deutschland seit 1945 untersucht sowie Strategien für Schutz und Antisemitismusprävention entwickelt. Anhand der in der NASAS identifizierten Handlungsfelder wird verdeutlicht, dass Forschung die Grundlage für die Durchdringung des Phänomens sowie die evidenzbasierte Entwicklung valider Präventionskonzepte liefert. Zugleich wird erkennbar, dass die NASAS wichtige Impulse für praxisorientierte Forschungsprojekte wie „Net Olam“ bereithält.

description: We calculate the rate of energy radiation by bremsstrahlung of neutrino pairs by baryons in neutron stars employing a transport model in which neutrinos couple to baryons with spectral width. The coherence effects, which are included by computing the self energies with fully dressed propagators, lead to the Landau-Pomeranchuk-Migdal suppression of the neutrino emission rates in the soft neutrino and high temperature limit. A microscopic evaluation of the bremsstrahlung rate by neutrons is carried out using the Brueckner theory of nuclear matter at finite temperatures.

description: In this paper, we present an immersed weak Galerkin method for solving second-order elliptic interface problems. The proposed method does not require the meshes to be aligned with the interface. Consequently, uniform Cartesian meshes can be used for nontrivial interfacial geometry. We show the existence and uniqueness of the numerical algorithm, and prove the error estimates for the energy norm. Numerical results are reported to demonstrate the performance of the method.

description: The power spectral density of magnetic fluctuations in the solar wind exhibits several power-law-like frequency ranges with a well defined break between approximately 0.1 and 1 Hz in the spacecraft frame. The exact dependence of this break scale on solar wind parameters has been extensively studied but is not yet fully understood. Recent studies have suggested that reconnection may induce a break in the spectrum at a "disruption scale" $λ_D$, which may be larger than the fundamental ion kinetic scales, producing an unusually steep spectrum just below the break. We present a statistical investigation of the dependence of the break scale on the proton gyroradius $ρ_i$, ion inertial length $d_i$, ion sound radius $ρ_s$, proton-cyclotron resonance scale $ρ_c$ and disruption scale $λ_D$ as a function of $β_{\perp i}$. We find that the steepest spectral indices of the dissipation range occur when $β_e$ is in the range of 0.1-1 and the break scale is only slightly larger than the ion sound scale (a situation occurring 41% of the time at 1 AU), in qualitative agreement with the reconnection model. In this range the break scale shows remarkably good correlation with $λ_D$. Our findings suggest that, at least at low $β_e$, reconnection may play an important role in the development of the dissipation range turbulent cascade and causes unusually steep (steeper than -3) spectral indices.

description: The paper deals with the problem of output regulation in a "non-equilibrium" context for a special class of multivariable nonlinear systems stabilizable by high-gain feedback. A post-processing internal model design suitable for the multivariable nature of the system, which might have more inputs than regulation errors, is proposed. Uncertainties in the system and exosystem are dealt with by assuming that the ideal steady state input belongs to a certain "class of signals" by which an appropriate model set for the internal model can be derived. The adaptation mechanism for the internal model is then cast as an identification problem and a least square solution is specifically developed. In line with recent developments in the field, the vision that emerges from the paper is that approximate, possibly asymptotic, regulation is the appropriate way of approaching the problem in a multivariable and uncertain context. New insights about the use of identification tools in the design of adaptive internal models are also presented.

The corresponding gravitational waves are the generalization of pp-fronted waves, called supersymmetric string waves. They are given by Brinkmann metric and the two-form field, without a dilaton. The non-diagonal part of the metric of the dual partner of the wave together with the two-form field correspond to the vector field in 4-dimensional geometry of the charged extreme black holes.

description: We study the distribution of dark matter in the nonlinear regime in a model in which the primordial fluctuations include, in addition to the dominant primordial Gaussian fluctuations generated by the standard $ΛCDM$ cosmological model, the effects of a cosmic string wake set up at the time of equal matter and radiation, making use of cosmological $N$-body simulations. At early times the string wake leads to a planar overdensity of dark matter. We study how this non-Gaussian pattern of a cosmic string wake evolves in the presence of the Gaussian perturbations, making use of wavelet and ridgelet-like statistics specifically designed to extract string wake signals. At late times the Gaussian fluctuations disrupt the string wake. We find that for a string tension of $G μ= 10^{-7}$, a value just below the current observational limit, the effects of a string wake can be identified in the dark matter distribution, using the current level of the statistical analysis, down to a redshift of $z = 10$.

Thus, their equations of states, phase, chemical state, and chemical reactivity at extreme conditions are of great interest. Applying Raman spectroscopy, visual observation, and synchrotron X-ray diffraction in diamond anvil cells (DAC), we performed experiments on H2-He 1:1 and D2-He 1:10 compressed gas mixture up to 100 GPa at 300 K. By comparing with the available data on pure bulk materials, we find no sign of miscibility, chemical reactivity, and new compound formation.

description: The University of Michigan campuss provides a number of recreational buildings for their students and staff to use. However, with the high volume of patrons using these facilities, it can often be difficult to find space or equipment to use. Currently, patrons are able to look on the Michigan app to see how many patrons are in different areas of the facilities, but the existing manual method of tracking these occupancy numbers is both inefficient and inaccurate. The purpose of this project was to develop a system to automate the process of tracking patron occupancy levels in order to produce more accurate and ultimately more useful occupancy information for both patrons and staff. By conducting a wide range of stakeholder interviews and researching existing methods for similar systems, we were able to design an infrared sensor based system that was demonstrated to accurately determine the number of occupants in a given space.

description: The piNN vertex function is calculated within a dispersion theoretical approach, including both pi-rho and pi-sigma intermediate states, where the sigma meson is an abbreviation for a correlated pion pair in a relative S-wave with isospin I=0. A strong coupling between the pi-sigma and the pi-rho states is found. This leads to a softening of the piNN form factor. In a monopole parameterization, a cut-off Lambda=800 MeV is obtained as compared to Lambda=1000 MeV using pi-rho intermediate states only.

Consumer Medical Question Answering: Challenges and Approaches
Creators: name: Nguyen, Vincent
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2024

description: Consumer Medical Question Answering (CQA) requires continual community support and innovation in the fields of information retrieval and natural language processing. In this thesis, we highlight research directions and investigate solutions to improve consumer medical question answering: (1) Given the limited resources, medical question answering systems typically rely on pre-trained open-domain models as part of the question answering pipeline. These pre-trained models are not designed for use in the biomedical domain, resulting in worse representations of biomedical language. We propose two strategies for improving biomedical representation learning for consumer question answering by modifying the models' architecture and vocabulary, (2) consumers often have trouble formulating their medical questions for their information needs correctly and therefore, find it difficult to locate trustworthy peer-reviewed biomedical information regarding their medical concerns. We propose a method that combines statistical keyword modelling alongside deep learning techniques to allow consumers to search for reputable information that an expert would find given the same information need, and (3) medical question answering datasets often have simplifying assumptions about the consumer's question to make the task more feasible. These datasets often assume a shorter question from the consumer, free of grammatical errors and lexical gaps. We curate a dataset that uses more realistic consumer questions paired with a verified medical expert's response. Given the difficulty of using consumer questions, we conduct a feasibility study using three QA pipelines. We conclude the thesis with answers to our research questions and highlight future directions for medical question answering for consumers.

description: The aim of D1.3 was to present the list with the most promising industrial crops to be grown on marginal lands facing natural constraints. The work started from a total number of 67 selected industrial crops (old databases and/or projects) that was presented and discussed in the 2nd technical meeting of the project (27th and 28th of November 2017). In the same meeting it was selected the list of industrial crops that will be included in the MAGIC-CROPS database (38 crops) as well as the list of the crops that will be included in the multi-criteria analysis of task 1.3 in order the most promising industrial crops for MAGIC project to be selected.
 The selection criteria in DoA of the project were: a) maturity of knowledge on industrial crops on marginal land, b) crop performance for bio-based products, c) crops’ productivity on marginal land, d) TRL of mechanical cultivation, e) crop adaptability under specific combinations of natural constrains in each M-AEZ, f) industry needs and g) market opportunities. In the 2nd technical meeting the criteria had been modified and the final criteria set were: a) experience with agricultural management of the proposed industrial crops, b) crop productivity for industrial applications (according to the main uses), c) expected crop performance on marginal land, d) industry needs and market opportunities. Each criterion had to be marked in a scale 1 to 5. It has been decided the weight of the final selected criteria not to be the same and to be as follows; 20% for the first two, 30% for the third and 15% for the last two. In the figure below (Figure 1) is presented the steps that had been followed for selection of the most promising industrial crops (D1.3).

description: The transition metal dichalcogenide TiSe$_2$ has received significant research attention over the past four decades. Different studies have presented ways to suppress the 200~K charge density wave transition, vary low temperature resistivity by several orders of magnitude, and stabilize magnetism or superconductivity. Here we give the results of a new synthesis technique whereby samples were grown in a high pressure environment with up to 180~bar of argon gas. Above 100~K, properties are nearly unchanged from previous reports, but a hysteretic resistance region that begins around 80~K, accompanied by insulating low temperature behavior, is distinct from anything previously observed. An accompanying decrease in carrier concentration is seen in Hall effect measurements, and photoemission data show a removal of an electron pocket from the Fermi surface in an insulating sample. We conclude that high inert gas pressure synthesis accesses an underlying nonmetallic ground state in a material long speculated to be an excitonic insulator.

description: A rather simple and non-technical exposition of our new approach to {\em Time, Quantum Physics, Black-Hole dynamics}, and {\em Cosmology}, based on non-critical string theory, is provided. A new fundamental principle, the {\em Procrustean Principle}, that catches the essence of our approach is postulated: the low-energy world is {\em unavoidably} an ``open" system due to the spontaneous truncation of the {\em delocalized, topological} string modes in continuous interaction with the low-lying-{\em localized} string modes. The origin of space-time, the expansion of the Universe, the entropy increase and accompanied irreversibility of time, as well as the collapse of the wavefunction are all very neatly tied together. Possible observable consequences include: quantum relaxation with time of the Universal, fundamental constants, like the velocity of light $c$ and the Planck constant $\hbar$ decreasing towards their asymptotic values, and the cosmological constant $Λ_C$ diminishing towards zero; possible violation of {\em CPT} invariance in the $K^0-\bar K^0$ system, possible apparent non-conservation of angular momentum, and possible loss of quantum coherence in SQUID-type experiments.

Subjects: subject: pressure ulcers

description: Pressure ulcers are injuries to the skin and underlying tissue that form due to prolonged pressure and are most common to bedridden patients. There is a high incidence in hospitals like San Juan de Dios in Guatemala due to understaffing, the high physical demand of turning, and pen-and-paper tracking methods; current solutions are too expensive and inefficient, as nurses are understaffed and are unable to stay on schedule. Hospitals in Guatemala currently use egg carton foam mattresses to reduce the incidences of pressure ulcers. However, even with these mattresses, patients who aren't turned develop pressure ulcers in a few hours of time. Additionally, the pen-and-paper tracking method of patient turning is neither effective nor reliable. Thus, there is a need to improve upon the current prevention method in these kinds of hospitals by codesigning a solution that reduces the demand on nurses to turn a patient. This honors capstone project will be a sub-project within an MHEAL project team, Project Alivio. This sub-project will be finding and executing ways to test the device with the main deliverable being to provide a plan for updates and changes and a plan for usability testing when the team travels to Guatemala in May of 2024.
Development of 2D nanomaterials for interlayer additions to carbon fiber thermoplastic composites for conductive property enhancement
Creators: name: Leow, Christopher
Publisher: name: The Australian National University
Year: 2024

description: This work explores the development of a scalable process to manufacture nanomaterial enhanced fibre reinforced thermoplastic composites. The high specific strength and stiffness properties of carbon fibre reinforced composites (CFRPs) are of value to aerospace, automotive, energy and sporting industry. Polyether ether ketone (PEEK), is a high performance aerospace thermoplastic with a high melting temperature, strength and chemical resistance properties. However, intrinsic electrical and thermal conductivity properties of PEEK are not sufficient for electrical and thermal dissipation applications without further enhancement. Incorporation of highly conductive nanomaterials offers an effective approach to enhancing thermal and electrical properties of CFRPs. The methods to synthesise high-quality nanomaterials are generally not scalable or cost-effective. Liquid phase exfoliation (LPE) offers a scalable method to generating high quality, purity nanomaterials at low cost. High concentration aqueous nanomaterial suspensions stabilised using non-ionic surfactants are environmentally and industrially beneficial. Development of a high concentration aqueous graphene and boron nitride nanosheet (BNNS) suspensions with F108 and F68 surfactant were investigated. The liquid nanosuspensions were spray deposited onto CF/PEEK prepreg tape substrates to develop thin films for interlaminar enhancement. The thin film surface roughness and nanomaterial quality were characterised with respect to the increased nanomaterial additions, surfactant content and polymer chain length properties. With increased nanomaterial loadings the surfactant content increased resulting in reduced anisotropic thermal, electrical and mechanical properties exhibited by the nanocomposite. Micro-computed tomography techniques imaged long cylindrical voids concentrated within the nanomaterial interlayers and permeating the entire nanocomposite. Numerical simulations of void locations were in agreement with the measured anisotropic electrical and thermal property reductions. Optimisation of the methodology found that a shorter surfactant chain, reduced surfactant content in the suspension formulation and heat treatment of the thin films and composite substrates had a strong correlation with reduced void content. The electrical and thermal property enhancements of the manufactured graphene nanocomposites were measured in addition to significant mechanical improvements. Preliminary anisotropic improvements were observed with BNNS additions using the same methodology. The optimised methodology successfully demonstrated scalable manufacture of thermally and electrically conductive CF/PEEK composites with nanomaterial interlayer additions.

description: In order to improve the description of the N-d vector analyzing powers Ay and iT11 (the so-called Ay puzzle) a spin-orbit three-body force has been introduced. The L.S term in the NN potential has been modified including a two-parameter three-body function depending on the hyperradius ρ. The modification has been performed in channels where the pair nucleons (i,j) are coupled to spin Sij=1 and isospin Tij=1. Calculations have been done in the energy region from Elab=648 keV up to Elab=10 MeV. A noticeable improvement in the description of the polarization observables has been obtained

Critical properties of scalar field theory with Lorentz violation: Exact treatment of Lorentz-violating mechanism

description: In this work, we compute analytically the infrared divergences of massless O($N$) self-interacting scalar field theories with Lorentz violation, which are exact in the Lorentz-violating $K_{μν}$ coefficients, for evaluating the corresponding next-to-leading order critical exponents. For that, we apply three distinct and independent field-theoretic renormalization group methods. We find that the outcomes for the critical exponents are the same in the three methods and, furthermore, are identical to their Lorentz invariant counterparts. We generalize the results for all loop levels by employing a general theorem arising from the exact procedure and give the corresponding physical interpretation.

Number of filtered target genes and target gene symbols for each of 17 differential circulating microRNAs in MMD, predicted by microRNA Target Filter implemented in IPA® (QIAGEN) and the miRmap web interface. The target genes were filtered based on their biological function analyzed using “Bioprofiler” implemented in IPA® (QIAGEN). As there is some overlap across microRNAs with respect to their target genes, so the total number of target genes at the bottom of the list is not a simple summation of each number of target genes.

description: We study structure of excited states of 10Be with the method of variation after spin parity projection in the framework of antisymmetrized molecular dynamics. Present calculations describe many excited states and reproduce the experimental data of E2 and E1 transitions and the new data of the $β$ transition strength successfully. We make systematic discussions on the molecule-like structures of light unstable nuclei and the important role of the valence neutrons based on the results obtained with the framework which is free from such model assumptions as the existence of inert cores and clusters.

description: We demonstrate advanced transversal radio frequency (RF) and microwave functions based on a Kerr optical comb source generated by an integrated micro-ring resonator. We achieve extremely high performance for an optical true time delay aimed at tunable phased array antenna applications, as well as reconfigurable microwave photonic filters. Our results agree well with theory. We show that our true time delay would yield a phased array antenna with features that include high angular resolution and a wide range of beam steering angles, while the microwave photonic filters feature high Q factors, wideband tunability, and highly reconfigurable filtering shapes. These results show that our approach is a competitive solution to implementing reconfigurable, high performance and potentially low cost RF and microwave
