title: On street and scaffold: the people and political culture in Restoration Scotland, c.1678-1685
Creators: name: Doak, Laura Isobel
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2020
Subjects: subject: Early Modern, Scotland, Scottish, Popular politics, political engagement, political culture, print, proclamations, public execution, space, spectatorship, protests, rebel declarations, riots, processions, progresses, street theatre, Stuart, Restoration, multi-monarchy, archipelago, multimodal, multimedia, discourse, public sphere.

description: This thesis examines political culture in Scotland between 1678 and 1685. Its specific focus is the presence of the people at events like processions, protests, and public executions. Print is considered as just one aspect of these multifaceted displays, illuminating ways in which this newly emerging means of communication interacted with - and even altered - these older participatory media, but also demonstrating that print was not imperative for popular political participation. Following chapters thus contend that any evaluation of early modern mass engagement is best structured by investigation of such multimodal cultural media, rather than any existing abstract theory or conceptual model. These were tense and turbulent years for the Scots, yet they remain under-represented in existing secondary literature. Inspired by work on early modern Europe and introducing new archival discoveries, following chapters also offer a fresh interpretation of Scottish history in these years. This thesis will question the idea that the Stuart dynasty was secure in its control of Scotland after 1660, and explore the kingdom’s diverse spectrum of ideological opposition. Through the key thematic lenses of ‘space’ and ‘spectatorship’, each chapter addresses a previously overlooked or unexamined medium, or channel, of communication. Chapter three explores royal celebration, entries, and progresses, whilst chapter four appraises the crown and Privy Council’s use of proclamations as political street theatre. Chapter five then considers protest activity, like rioting and mock processions, and chapter six examines the appropriation of proclamation conventions to stage treasonous declarations. Finally, chapter seven concludes analysis with a detailed investigation of public executions, which can be considered prominent platforms for conflicting interpretations over what constituted legitimate authority. These exchanges, staged on street and scaffold, were the politics of ordinary men and women in late Restoration Scotland, and it is their participation with the rich, cross-media debates that these performances built around their spectators that this thesis takes as its central concern.

description: The Harvard University Asia Center hosted a symposium in October 2010 focused on sex work and sexually transmitted infections in Asia, engaging a biosocial approach to promote sexual health in this region. Asia has an estimated 151 million cases of curable sexually transmitted infections (STIs; eg, syphilis, gonorrhea, chlamydia) each year, with commercial sex interactions playing a large role in ongoing transmission. Substantial human movement and migration, gender inequalities, and incipient medical and legal systems in many states stymie effective STI control in Asia. The articles in this supplement provide theoretical and empirical pathways to improving the sexual health of those who sell and purchase commercial sex in Asia. The unintended health consequences of various forms of regulating commercial sex are also reviewed, emphasizing the need to carefully consider the medical and public health consequences of new and existing policies and laws.

CONDITIONS INDUCING POLYMORPHISM IN THALAMOPORELLA ROZIERI (AUDOUIN) (POLYZOA, ANASCA)

Year: 1966

description: An attempt is made to evaluate the conditions inducing development of the avicularium in Thalamoporella rozieri (Audouin). The conditions causing the development of the kenozooecia were first reviewed. These structures always result from severe shortages of space localised within the zoarium, disrupting the normal arrangement of the zooecia. Avicularia always occur at the beginning of a bifurcating row of zooecia, as the distal-lateral bud of an unlike pair generated from the proximal mother-zooecium; the distal bud becomes a zooecium. Both their regularity in avicularial distribution as well as their consistent positioning in the zoarium is explained in terms of the following growth-inhibiting mechanism. Development of the distal daughter-bud always proceeds at a faster rate than the distal-lateral bud, it thereby occupies a greater amount of space and becomes a daughter-zooecium. Owing to pressure brought about by insufficient space, development of the distal-lateral bud as a zooecium is inhibited and it becomes modified as a smaller avicularium. Equal rates of growth of two daughter-buds produces two zooecia of approximately similar dimensions. Striking evidence of this growth mechanism is to be found in T.evelinae Marcus, a species without avicularia, the distal-lateral buds at the beginning of new rows becoming modified as kenozooecia instead.
Tensor Numerical Methods in Quantum Chemistry: from Hartree-Fock Energy to Excited States

description: We resume the recent successes of the grid-based tensor numerical methods and discuss their prospects in real-space electronic structure calculations. These methods, based on the low-rank representation of the multidimensional functions and integral operators, led to entirely grid-based tensor-structured 3D Hartree-Fock eigenvalue solver. It benefits from tensor calculation of the core Hamiltonian and two-electron integrals (TEI) in $O(n\log n)$ complexity using the rank-structured approximation of basis functions, electron densities and convolution integral operators all represented on 3D $n\times n\times n $ Cartesian grids. The algorithm for calculating TEI tensor in a form of the Cholesky decomposition is based on multiple factorizations using algebraic 1D ``density fitting`` scheme. The basis functions are not restricted to separable Gaussians, since the analytical integration is substituted by high-precision tensor-structured numerical quadratures. The tensor approaches to post-Hartree-Fock calculations for the MP2 energy correction and for the Bethe-Salpeter excited states, based on using low-rank factorizations and the reduced basis method, were recently introduced. Another direction is related to the recent attempts to develop a tensor-based Hartree-Fock numerical scheme for finite lattice-structured systems, where one of the numerical challenges is the summation of electrostatic potentials of a large number of nuclei. The 3D grid-based tensor method for calculation of a potential sum on a $L\times L\times L$ lattice manifests the linear in $L$ computational work, $O(L)$, instead of the usual $O(L^3 \log L)$ scaling by the Ewald-type approaches.

description: Instant Architecture is an attempt to re-examine the socio-political climate of nineteen-sixties Los Angeles through performance and performative art practices. Comprising two interrelated parts, this dissertation and a music-theatre performance which took place on May 31st, 2019 at the James Arnott Theatre in Glasgow, Scotland, my research project explores how the art of sixties L.A. employed political ambiguity as a response to the pop culture capital’s class divides, the ostensible freedom of its vast highways and the populist fascism that coalesced around Barry Goldwater’s 1964 presidential run. Investigating the relationship between political dissensus, radical forms of collectivity and L.A.’s sub/urban structure through the work of Claes Oldenburg, Niki de Saint Phalle, Ed Ruscha, Barbara T. Smith, Kenneth Anger, Andy Warhol, Noah Purifoy and the Underground Musicians Association, Instant Architecture aims towards an understanding of how art can serve as an archive of its time, an archive that is indelibly theatrical, divergent and turned towards the future, and how my re-performance of this archive might offer novel modes of re-evaluating, re-contextualising and re-invigorating sixties L.A.

description: Luminescence intensity and kinetics of the small cosmopolitan ophiuroid Amphipholis squamata were measured
 in the laboratory from individuals collected in a bright intertidal environment and a dark subtidal environment (15 m depth).
 Luminescence was also measured during day and night for intertidal individuals only. Luminescence intensity was about 100
 times higher for intertidal individuals than for subtidal individuals, and about 2 times higher during day time than at night
 for intertidal individuals. It is the first time that luminescence intensity has been shown to vary with depth and between day
 and night in a benthic invertebrate species. Conversely, luminescence kinetics, were always similar whatever the origin of
 the sample and time of measurement. Our results support the common belief that differences in luminescence intensity reflect
 differences in ambient illumination [obtaining enough contrast with the least signal] more than being related to any other
 environmental parameter.

description: Staphylococcus aureus is a dangerous pathogen that can cause necrotizing infections characterized by massive inflammatory responses and tissue destruction. Staphylococcal α-hemolysin is an essential virulence factor in severe S. aureus pneumonia. It activates the nucleotide-binding domain and leucine-rich repeat containing gene family, pyrin domain containing 3 (NLRP3) inflammasome to induce production of interleukin-1β and programmed necrotic cell death. We sought to determine the role of α-hemolysin–mediated activation of NLRP3 in the pathogenesis of S. aureus pneumonia. We show that α-hemolysin activates the NLRP3 inflammasome during S. aureus pneumonia, inducing necrotic pulmonary injury. Moreover, Nlrp3−/− mice have less-severe pneumonia. Pulmonary injury induced by isolated α-hemolysin or live S. aureus is independent of interleukin-1β signaling, implicating NLRP3-induced necrosis in the pathogenesis of severe infection. This work demonstrates the exploitation of host inflammatory signaling by S. aureus and suggests the NLRP3 inflammasome as a potential target for pharmacologic interventions in severe S. aureus infections.

description: The development of an effective malaria vaccine has been hampered by the genetic diversity of commonly used target antigens. This diversity has led to concerns about allele-specific immunity limiting the effectiveness of vaccines. Despite extensive genetic diversity of circumsporozoite protein (CS), the most successful malaria vaccine is RTS/S, a monovalent CS vaccine. By use of massively parallel pyrosequencing, we evaluated the diversity of CS haplotypes across the T-cell epitopes in parasites from Lilongwe, Malawi. We identified 57 unique parasite haplotypes from 100 participants. By use of ecological and molecular indexes of diversity, we saw no difference in the diversity of CS haplotypes between adults and children. We saw evidence of weak variant-specific selection within this region of CS, suggesting naturally acquired immunity does induce variant-specific selection on CS. Therefore, the impact of CS vaccines on variant frequencies with widespread implementation of vaccination requires further study.

Year: 1999

description: The influence of irradiance on the apparent photosynthetic quotient (PQ) was studied for cultures of the unicellular
 alga Pycnococcus provasolii. The apparent PQ was in the range 0.7 to 4.2. and two trends of variation with irradiance were
 apparent: a) PQ's decreased with increasing incubation irradiance above saturation levels; b) At any given incubation
 irradiance PQ's were generally higher for algae grown at higher irradiances. Possible explanations to these patterns are
 discussed. It is suggested that variations of PQ in phytoplankton can partly be due to mechanisms related to
 photoacclimatization.
Coupling Lemma and Its Application to The Security Analysis of Quantum Key Distribution

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: It is known that the coupling lemma provides a useful tool in the study of probability theory and its related areas. It describes the relation between the variational distance of two probability distributions and the probability that outcomes from the two random experiments associated with each distribution are not identical. In this paper, the failure probability interpretation problem that has been presented by Yuen and Hirota is discussed from the viewpoint of the application of the coupling lemma. First, we introduce the coupling lemma, and investigate properties of it. Next, it is shown that the claims for this problem in the literatures are justified by using the coupling lemma. Consequently, we see that the failure probability interpretation is not adequate in the security analysis of quantum key distribution.

description: Antiretroviral therapy (ART) in resource-limited settings has expanded in the last decade, reaching >8 million individuals and reducing AIDS mortality and morbidity. Continued success of ART programs will require understanding the emergence of HIV drug resistance patterns among individuals in whom treatment has failed and managing ART from both an individual and public health perspective. We review data on the emergence of HIV drug resistance among individuals in whom first-line therapy has failed and clinical and resistance outcomes of those receiving second-line therapy in resource-limited settings.

description: The Earth’s atmosphere was without free oxygen until the Great Oxygenation Event, thought to have been driven by oxygenic photosynthesis. The expansion of early Cyanobacteria was proposed to be restricted by the lack of bioavailable nitrogen. The effects of an anoxic Archean atmosphere on the growth of a the nitrogen fixing Cyanobacterium Nostoc sp. PCC7524 was compared to control cultures grown under present day atmospheric levels (PAL) of O2 and CO2. Additionally, we assessed how the early Archean atmosphere affected the gas diffusion barrier, consisting of heterocyte glycolipids, of the heterocyte and the ability of early Cyanobacteria to fix N2. While no significant changes were observed for growth rates under N-depleted conditions in the experimental and control atmospheres, upregulation of the C- and N2-fixation associated genes, were observed under Archean conditions relative to PAL. This correlated with increased levels of the C-fixing Rubisco protein and O2 production. The glycogen and protein content of the Archean endpoint culture material showed raised levels of these long-term storage compounds compared to those grown under PAL conditions. No significant changes in the heterocyte glycolipid content or composition was observed. This data suggests that diazotrophic Cyanobacteria were able to fix nitrogen and carbon more efficiently under the anoxic conditions of the Archean, thereby releasing more biologically available carbon and nitrogen into the immediate environment than under PAL conditions. The fact that no significant changes in the heterocyte glycolipid content occurred suggests they are suitable biomarkers for cyanobacterial N2-fixation in geological records.
Metal-Insulator Transitions and non-Fermi Liquid Behaviors in 5d Perovskite Iridates

description: Transition metal oxides, in particular, 3d or 4d perovskites have provided diverse emergent physics that originates from the coupling of various degrees of freedom such as spin, lattice, charge, orbital, and also disorder. 5d perovskites form a distinct class because they have strong spin-orbit coupling that introduces to the system an additional energy scale that is comparable to bandwidth and Coulomb correlation. Consequent new physics includes novel Jeff = 1/2 Mott insulators, metal-insulator transitions, spin liquids, and topological insulators. After highlighting some of the phenomena appearing in Ruddlesden-Popper iridate series Srn+1IrnO3n+1, we focus on the transport properties of perovskite SrIrO3. Using epitaxial thin films on various substrates, we demonstrate that metal-insulator transitions can be induced in perovskite SrIrO3 by reducing its thickness or by imposing compressive strain. The metal-insulator transition driven by thickness reduction is due to disorder, but the metal-insulator transition driven by compressive strain is accompanied by peculiar non-Fermi liquid behaviors, possibly due to the delicate interplay between correlation, disorder, and spin-orbit coupling. We examine various theoretical frameworks to understand the non-Fermi liquid physics and metal-insulator transition that occurs in SrIrO3 and offer the Mott-Anderson-Griffiths scenario as a possible solution.

description: We consider the minimal U(1)$^\prime$ extension of the Standard Model (SM) with conformal invariance at the classical level, where in addition to the SM particle contents, three generations of right-handed neutrinos and a U(1)$^\prime$ Higgs field are introduced. In the presence of the three right-handed neutrinos, which are responsible for the seesaw mechanism, this model is free from all the gauge and gravitational anomalies. The U(1)$^\prime$ gauge symmetry is radiatively broken via the Coleman-Weinberg mechanism, by which the U(1)$^\prime$ gauge boson ($Z^\prime$ boson) mass as well as the Majorana mass for the right-handed neutrinos are generated. The radiative U(1)$^\prime$ symmetry breaking also induces a negative mass squared for the SM Higgs doublet to trigger the electroweak symmetry breaking. In this context, we investigate a possibility to solve the SM Higgs vacuum instability problem. The model includes only three free parameters (U(1)$^\prime$ charge of the SM Higgs doublet, U(1)$^\prime$ gauge coupling and $Z^\prime$ boson mass), for which we perform parameter scan, and identify a parameter region resolving the SM Higgs vacuum instability. We also examine naturalness of the model. The heavy states associated with the U(1)$^\prime$ symmetry breaking contribute to the SM Higgs self-energy. We find an upper bound on $Z^\prime$ boson mass, $m_{Z^\prime} \lesssim 6$ TeV, in order to avoid a fine-tuning severer than 10 % level. The $Z^\prime$ boson in this mass range can be discovered at the LHC Run-2 in the near future.

description: We consider the problem of recovering two-dimensional (2-D) block-sparse signals with \emph{unknown} cluster patterns. Two-dimensional block-sparse patterns arise naturally in many practical applications such as foreground detection and inverse synthetic aperture radar imaging. To exploit the block-sparse structure, we introduce a 2-D pattern-coupled hierarchical Gaussian prior model to characterize the statistical pattern dependencies among neighboring coefficients. Unlike the conventional hierarchical Gaussian prior model where each coefficient is associated independently with a unique hyperparameter, the pattern-coupled prior for each coefficient not only involves its own hyperparameter, but also its immediate neighboring hyperparameters. Thus the sparsity patterns of neighboring coefficients are related to each other and the hierarchical model has the potential to encourage 2-D structured-sparse solutions. An expectation-maximization (EM) strategy is employed to obtain the maximum a posterior (MAP) estimate of the hyperparameters, along with the posterior distribution of the sparse signal. In addition, the generalized approximate message passing (GAMP) algorithm is embedded into the EM framework to efficiently compute an approximation of the posterior distribution of hidden variables, which results in a significant reduction in computational complexity. Numerical results are provided to illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

description: Background. GII.4 noroviruses are a significant source of acute gastroenteritis worldwide, causing the majority of human norovirus outbreaks. Evolution of the GII.4 major capsid protein occurs rapidly, resulting in the emergence of new strains that produce successive waves of pandemic disease. A new pandemic isolate, GII.4 2012 Sydney, largely replaced previously circulating strains in late 2012. We compare the antigenic properties of GII.4 2012 Sydney with previously circulating strains.

description: The immunopathogenesis of severe dengue is poorly understood, but there is concern that induction of cross-reactive nonneutralizing antibodies by infection or vaccination may increase the likelihood of severe disease during a subsequent infection. We generated a total of 63 new human monoclonal antibodies to compare the B-cell response of subjects who received the National Institutes of Health live attenuated dengue vaccine rDEN1Δ30 to that of subjects following symptomatic primary infection with DENV1. Both infection and vaccination induced serum neutralizing antibodies and DENV1-reactive peripheral blood B cells, but the magnitude of induction was lower in vaccinated individuals. Serotype cross-reactive weakly neutralizing antibodies dominated the response in both vaccinated and naturally infected subjects. Antigen specificities were very similar, with a slightly greater percentage of antibodies targeting E protein domain I/II than domain III. These data shed light on the similarity of human B-cell response to live attenuated DENV vaccine or natural infection.

description: Background. Influenza virus infection is a major public health burden worldwide. Available vaccines include the inactivated intramuscular trivalent vaccine and, more recently, an intranasal live attenuated influenza vaccine (LAIV). The measure of successful vaccination with the inactivated vaccine is a systemic rise in immunoglobulin G (IgG) level, but for the LAIV no such correlate has been established.

description: Marine biogrowth infestation of a seawater intake system was investigated. A digital camera fixed onto a skid was used to record the biogrowth at intervals of 5 m up to a depth of 55 m. Divers inspected the intake shaft and collected the biogrowth samples for biomass estimation. A biomass density of 7.5 kg m−2 and 28.2 kg m−2 was recorded at 5 and 30 m depths respectively. Inspection by the divers revealed that hard-shelled organisms such as oysters and brown and green mussels were observed in plenty up to a thickness of 15 cm and bryozoans grew as epibionts. At lower depths (<40 m), hydroids grew on the shells of green mussels along with silt accumulation. The biofouling community was composed of 46 organisms, exhibiting variation in distribution and abundance. The study explains the extent and type of marine biogrowth phenomena with depth and describes biofouling preventive methods.

Thermal Phase Transition of Generalized Heisenberg Models for SU(N) Spins on Square and Honeycomb Lattices

description: We investigate thermal phase transitions to a valence-bond solid phase in SU(N) Heisenberg models with four- or six-body interactions on a square or honeycomb lattice, respectively. In both cases, a thermal phase transition occurs that is accompanied by rotational symmetry breaking of the lattice. We perform quantum Monte Carlo calculations in order to clarify the critical properties of the models. The estimated critical exponents indicate that the universality classes of the square- and honeycomb-lattice cases are identical to those of the classical $XY$ model with a $Z_4$ symmetry-breaking field and the 3-state Potts model, respectively. In the square-lattice case, the thermal exponent, $ν$, monotonically increases as the system approaches the quantum critical point, while the values of the critical exponents, $η$ and $γ/ν$, remain constant. From a finite-size scaling analysis, we find that the system exhibits weak universality, because the $Z_4$ symmetry-breaking field is always marginal. In contrast, $ν$ in the honeycomb-lattice case exhibits a constant value, even in the vicinity of the quantum critical point, because the $Z_3$ field remains relevant in the SU(3) and SU(4) cases.

NOTES ON SOME POLYZOA WITH CONICAL ZOARIA
Creators: name: COOK, Patricia L.

Year: 1965

description: 5 species, 3 of which are known to be usually encrusting, have produced free-living, conical zoaria when growing over a sea-bottom of sand, mud and shell. The zoaria of 4 of these species have incorporated various organisms from the surface of the sea-bottom into their basal surfaces during growth. These include species of Polyzoa, and the hollow, basal concavities of the colonies have been secondarily colonized by epizoic growth, including other species of Polyzoa. The occurrence of these forms has been analysed. The Polyzoan fauna associated with sandy or muddy sea-bottoms is discussed, and an estimate is made of the frequency of free-living “sand fauna” species in such habitats.

description: Molecular surveillance for drug-resistant malaria parasites requires reliable, timely, and scalable methods. These data may be efficiently produced by genotyping parasite populations using second-generation sequencing (SGS). We designed and validated a SGS protocol to quantify mutant allele frequencies in the Plasmodium falciparum genes dhfr and dhps in mixed isolates. We applied this new protocol to field isolates from children and compared it to standard genotyping using Sanger sequencing. The SGS protocol accurately quantified dhfr and dhps allele frequencies in a mixture of parasite strains. Using SGS of DNA that was extracted and then pooled from individual isolates, we estimated mutant allele frequencies that were closely correlated to those estimated by Sanger sequencing (correlations, >0.98). The SGS protocol obviated most molecular steps in conventional methods and is cost saving for parasite populations >50. This SGS genotyping method efficiently and reproducibly estimates parasite allele frequencies within populations of P. falciparum for molecular epidemiologic studies.
