description: Exploring organic reactions to construct novel molecules with aggregation-induced emission (AIE) features is an essential branch of AIE research. The fast-paced application of AIE materials in various disciplines, including photoelectricity, molecular biology, medicine, and materials science, has led to an ever-growing need for new AIE molecules. Unlike the synthesis of most “earlier generations” of AIE fluorogens (AIEgens) that require tedious and harsh reactions, chemists now shift their synthetic focus to a selection of reliable and straightforward reactions. The Diels-Alder reaction has been overlooked in this field. Herein, we report a catalyst-free Diels-Alder reaction between 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran and a series of electron-deficient alkynes to create AIEgens. Photophysical properties of our synthesized 1,3,4-triphenyl-1,4-dihydro-1,4-epoxynaphthalene (ENAP) derivatives are studied systematically, manifesting their AIE characteristics and structure-fluorescence property relationships. Finally, we highlight the diverse applications of some selected ENAP derivatives in latent fingerprint detection, cell imaging, and bacterial staining.

description: This paper focuses on enhancing human-agent communication by integrating spatial context into virtual agents' non-verbal behaviors, specifically gestures. Recent advances in co-speech gesture generation have primarily utilized data-driven methods, which create natural motion but limit the scope of gestures to those performed in a void. Our work aims to extend these methods by enabling generative models to incorporate scene information into speech-driven gesture synthesis. We introduce a novel synthetic gesture dataset tailored for this purpose. This development represents a critical step toward creating embodied conversational agents that interact more naturally with their environment and users.

description: Liminal Glyphs, MFA thesis exhibition of Kate Fitzpatrick, was on display at Gillespie Gallery at George Mason University in Fall of 2020. The exhibition provided a space to explore the nature of language, meaning, and identity through the investigation of sign systems. This exhibition represents an inquiry into the transitional boundaries that exist in the interpretation of written language. The creation of the artist's own glyphs as script explores how sign systems play a crucial part in the construction of our own reality by defying meaning when we no longer have the key to unlock it. The resulting artwork comes from the artist's self-reflection of life experiences with language and the investigation of language philosophy.

description: Molluscs are major contributors to the international and Australian aquaculture industries, however, their immune systems remain poorly understood due to limited access to draft genomes and evidence of divergences from model organisms. As invertebrates, molluscs lack adaptive immune systems or ‘memory’, and rely solely on innate immunity for antimicrobial defence. Hemolymph, the circulatory fluid of invertebrates, contains hemocytes which secrete effector molecules with immune regulatory functions. Interactions between mollusc effector molecules and bacterial and fungal pathogens have been well documented, however, there is limited knowledge of their roles against viruses, which cause high mortality and significant production losses in these species. Of the major effector molecules, only the direct acting protein dicer-2 and the antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) hemocyanin and myticin-C have shown antiviral activity. A better understanding of these effector molecules may allow for the manipulation of mollusc proteomes to enhance antiviral and overall antimicrobial defence to prevent future outbreaks and minimize economic outbreaks. Moreover, effector molecule research may yield the description and production of novel antimicrobial treatments for a broad host range of animal species.

description: We demonstrate that electroactive thin films incorporating semiconducting polymers and deterministic functionalized gold nanoclusters (ncAu25) lead to integration of the functions of resistive memory device and field-effect transistor (FETs) within a single component (mem-transistor) in a neuromorphic system. Memristor functions originate from ferrocenyl-modified gold nanoclusters (ncAu25-Fc) embedded in polymethyl-methacrylate (PMMA) and devices optimized for maximum 1/0 'flash' memory effect are found to contain 15 wt% ncAu25-Fc. Integrated memristor and neuromorphic functions are obtained by replacing PMMA with poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) in the active layer, from which transistor effects are derived. Based on the energy band diagrams of ncAu25, PMMA and P3HT, percolation theory is used to explain the memristor 1/0 on/off ratio as a function of ncAu25-Fc concentration. The use of ncAu25-Fc with charge-tunable, ferrocene-modified, ligands is critical toward better cluster-polymer interfaces. Our work shows that nanostructures of polymers and metalorganic frameworks bear strong potential towards neuromorphic devices and the circuital simplification of data storage technology.

Energy Planning for Ethiopia's Agro-Industrial Growth Using Energy Access Explorer
Creators: name: Krishna Kumar, Neerajha
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: This study investigates energy access strategies to support Ethiopia’s agro-industrial development, focusing on Rural Transformation Centres (RTCs) linked to Integrated Agro-Industrial Parks (IAIPs). Using the Energy Access Explorer tool, spatial analysis was conducted to evaluate three pathways: connection to existing grid infrastructure, solar energy potential, and wind energy potential. Results show that while seven RTCs are located within 5 KM of distribution substations, lack of data on substation load capacity and RTC energy demand poses challenges to grid integration. 

Additionally, ten RTCs were identified as suitable for clean energy deployment, based on solar irradiance and wind speed thresholds. The analysis highlights the urgent need to improve energy reliability for RTC functionality and scale-up. Policy recommendations include prioritizing infrastructure upgrades, expanding decentralized solar and wind systems, and integrating RTC energy planning into national strategies. Further field assessments and improved data access will be essential to support investment and implementation in Ethiopia’s rural energy transition.

description: Over the last years, the role of temperature-related gene expression in ecological adaptation has been receiving increasing attention. Previous findings of our group identified specific cold adaptations involving energy metabolism and arrest of reproduction in females of the fly Drosophila buzzatii in response to winter conditions. We performed a RNA-seq analysis to investigate changes in gene expression profiles in order to identify the genetic basis of such cold adaptations. The study was conducted by exposing sets of females to three thermal conditions: one involving the cold tolerant flies and two control treatments. We used the Trinity software to generate a de novo assembly from RNA-seq reads. To analyze expression levels of the reconstructed transcripts, we mapped the reads against the transcriptome and then estimated the number of RNA-seq fragments (counts) that mapped to each contig. Transcripts were filtered based on a mean count value cutoff and normalized by the TMM method to get the differences in RNA composition. Thereby, we extracted transcripts that were at least 4-fold differentially expressed at a significance of 1E-3 in any comparison. This step allowed us to compare over and under-expression transcript clusters. Based on a well-annotated genome, we made a blastx against D. melanogaster genome. The results showed an over-representation of specific genetic pathways and cellular processes, highlighting the relevance of sugar metabolism, glycolysis and oxidative phosphorylation in the expression of cold tolerance. Future studies will assess the role of natural selection shaping the evolution of differentially expressed genes identified.

description: We propose a new experimental technique to generate and detect axions in the lab with a good experimental sensitivity over a broad axion mass range. The scheme relies on using laser-based four-wave mixing, which is mediated by the hypothetical axion field. Intense pump and Stokes laser beams that are confined to a waveguide (i.e., for example, an optical fiber) with appropriately chosen frequencies resonantly drive axion generation. Under such a geometry, we predict the existence of guided axion waves, which we refer to as "axitons". These are solutions of the axion Klein-Gordon field equation that are spatially guided by the profiles of the driving pump and Stokes laser beams. These guided axitons can then couple to a nearby fiber and mix with another laser, affecting the propagation of a probe laser beam. A key advantage of the scheme is that the mass range of the hypothetical axion can be scanned by varying the frequencies of the pump and the Stokes laser beams. We predict that, using reasonable parameters, the technique will be able to detect axions in the mass range $10^{-6} $eV $< m

description: Fasciola hepatica is the causative agent of fasciolosis, a significant parasitic disease occurring worldwide. Despite ongoing efforts, there is still no vaccine to control liver fluke infections in livestock. Recently, it has been suggested that natural antibodies (NAbs) can amplify specific antibodies (SpAb) and have a direct killing effect, but it is unknown if this phenomenon occurs during parasitic helminth infection or targeted vaccination. NAbs are antibodies produced by the innate immune system, capable of binding antigens without prior exposure. This study explores the role of bovine NAbs, using the exogenous glycoprotein keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH), in response to F. hepatica infection and SpAb production after infection and vaccination. The cattle’s NAbs were differently influenced by parasite infection and vaccination, with an increase in KLH-binding IgG and IgM levels after infection and reduced KLH-binding IgM levels following vaccination. Underlying NAbs reacting to KLH showed no correlations to the final fluke burdens after experimental infection or vaccination. However, NAbs reacting to whole-worm extract (WWE) prior to infection were positively correlated to increased fluke burdens within the infected bovine host. Furthermore, after infection, the specific IgG reacting to WWE was positively reflected by the underlying NAb IgG response. Following subcutaneous vaccination with F. hepatica native glutathione S-transferase (GST), there was a non-significant 33% reduction in fluke burden. Vaccinated animals with higher underlying NAbs had a higher induction of vaccine-induced SpAbs, with trends observed between KLH-binding IgM and anti-GST IgG and IgM. Our findings provide a platform to allow further investigation to determine if NAb levels could mirror fluke-SpAb production for exploitation in a combined selective breeding and vaccination program. Additionally, this work suggests that liver fluke could possibly evade the host’s immune system by utilising surface-bound IgM NAbs.

Asymmetry of imploding detonations in thin channels

Subjects: subject: Fluid Dynamics (physics.flu-dyn)

description: The factors that influence the symmetry of an imploding detonation are investigated experimentally and theoretically. Detonations in sub-atmospheric acetylene-oxygen were initiated and made to converge in an apparatus that followed that of Lee and Lee (Phys Fluids 8:2148-2152, 1965). The width of the test section was controlled with a wave-shaping insert, which formed the test section against the viewing window, creating an effectively two-dimensional problem with a channel width comparable to the detonation cell size. The convergence of the detonation was observed via self-luminous open-shutter photography and high-speed videography. The resulting videos were analyzed to quantify the wave speed, degree of asymmetry, and direction and magnitude of the offset in the center of convergence. To determine the experimental parameters that influence the symmetry of the imploding wave, the wave-shaping insert was intentionally canted by 0.3°-0.6°, accentuating the asymmetry of the imploding detonation. The experiment was modeled using a Huygens construction wherein the detonation is treated as a collection of wavelets, each assumed to propagate locally at a velocity determined by the channel width. The results of the model reproduced the observed offsets in detonation convergence from the center of the apparatus, confirming that velocity deficits resulting from the narrow channel width control the observed asymmetry.

description: We study the consistency of the decoupling limit of the generalized SU(2) Proca theory (GSU2P). Namely, we study the healthiness of those terms whose analysis in the scalar limit was not originally established in the reconstruction of the full theory (see the work by Gallego Cadavid et. al. [Phys. Rev. D 102, 104066 (2020)]). Those terms are the parity-violating $\tilde{\mathcal{L}}_{4,2}^1$ and the parity-conserving beyond SU(2) Proca terms $\mathcal{L}_{4,2}^3$ and $\mathcal{L}_{4,2}^4$. Using the 3+1 Arnowitt-Deser-Misner formalism, we write down the kinetic Lagrangian of these terms in the decoupling limit and show that their corresponding kinetic matrices are degenerate. This degeneracy is a necessary condition for the propagation of the right number of degrees of freedom, as required by the primary constraint-enforcing relation. Interestingly, the $\tilde{\mathcal{L}}_{4,2}^1$ term, which is purely non-Abelian, does not contribute to the kinetic Lagrangian of the theory, so its contribution is trivially degenerate. Similarly, but not trivially in these cases, the contributions of the $\mathcal{L}_{4,2}^3$ and $\mathcal{L}_{4,2}^4$ terms to the kinetic Lagrangian turn out to be degenerate as well. The results presented in this paper represent progress in the construction of the fully healthy GSU2P.

description: There are serious problems in the world of youth sports, with the “finger of blame” pointed squarely at adults for spoiling the fun. Unruly parent behavior and violent confrontations at youth sporting events have become increasingly frequent. Consequently, these behaviors have damaged parents’ relationships with coaches, officials, spectators, other parents and even their own children (Ford, Jubenville, & Phillips, 2012). With factors like intense training schedules, the pressure to win and be the best, and painful injuries, it is not surprising that some athletes simply burn out on their sport. But what is shocking to many who study youth sport are the young ages at which this happens, sometimes as early as 9 or 10 (Stenson, 2004). Using elements of rhetorical cluster criticism (Foss, 1996), I examine recurring themes found in the youth sport literature. Specifically, two major themes are posited—violence in youth sports; and the genuine lack of “fun” associated with sport. Key terms are identified as are associated clusters, and a comparison and discussion of the discovered clusters is offered. Findings showed how the language throughout the selected youth sport literature reinforced recurring concepts regarding violence in sport and lack of fun. In both cases, key terms and related words and phrases reiterated the frequency and intensity of identified themes.

description: The common brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) Val66Met polymorphism is associated with reduced activity-dependent BDNF release and increased risk for anxiety disorders and PTSD. Here we behaviorally phenotyped a novel Val66Met rat model with an equivalent valine to methionine substitution in the rat Bdnf gene (Val68Met). In a three-day fear conditioning protocol of fear learning and extinction, adult rats with the Met/Met genotype demonstrated impaired fear memory compared to Val/Met rats and Val/Val controls, with no genotype differences in fear learning or extinction. This deficit in fear memory occurred irrespective of the sex of the animals and was not seen in adolescence (4 weeks of age). There were no changes in open-field locomotor activity or anxiety measured in the elevated plus maze (EPM) nor in other types of memory measured using the novel-object recognition test or Y-maze. BDNF exon VI expression in the dorsal hippocampus was higher and BDNF protein level in the ventral hippocampus was lower in female Val/Met rats than female Val/Val rats, with no other genotype differences, including in total BDNF, BDNF long, or BDNF IV mRNA. These data suggest a specific role for the BDNF Met/Met genotype in fear memory in rats. Further studies are required to investigate gene-environment interactions in this novel animal model.

description: Recent video question answering benchmarks indicate that state-of-the-art models struggle to answer compositional questions. However, it remains unclear which types of compositional reasoning cause models to mispredict. Furthermore, it is difficult to discern whether models arrive at answers using compositional reasoning or by leveraging data biases. In this paper, we develop a question decomposition engine that programmatically deconstructs a compositional question into a directed acyclic graph of sub-questions. The graph is designed such that each parent question is a composition of its children. We present AGQA-Decomp, a benchmark containing $2.3M$ question graphs, with an average of $11.49$ sub-questions per graph, and $4.55M$ total new sub-questions. Using question graphs, we evaluate three state-of-the-art models with a suite of novel compositional consistency metrics. We find that models either cannot reason correctly through most compositions or are reliant on incorrect reasoning to reach answers, frequently contradicting themselves or achieving high accuracies when failing at intermediate reasoning steps.

description: The particle contact model is important for powder simulations. Although several contact models have been proposed, their validity has not yet been well established. Therefore, we perform molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to clarify the particle interaction. We simulate head-on collisions of two particles with impact velocities less than a few percent of the sound velocity to investigate the dependence of the interparticle force and the coefficient of restitution (COR) on the impact velocity and particle radius. In this study, we treat particles with a radius of 10-100 nm and perform simulations. We find that the interparticle force exhibits hysteresis between the loading and unloading phases. Larger impact velocities result in strong hysteresis and plastic deformation. For all impact velocities and particle radii, the coefficient of restitution is smaller than that given by the Johnson-Kendall-Robert theory. An inelastic contact model cannot reproduce our MD simulations. In particular, the COR is significantly reduced when the impact velocity exceeds a certain value. This significant energy dissipation cannot be explained even by the contact models including plastic deformation. We also find that the COR increases with increasing particle radius. We also find that the previous contact models including plastic deformation cannot explain the strong energy dissipation obtained in our MD simulations, although they agree with the MD results for very low impact velocities. Accordingly, we have constructed a new dissipative contact model in which the dissipative force increases with the stress generated by collisions. The new stress dependent model successfully reproduces our MD results over a wider range of impact velocities than the conventional models do. In addition, we proposed another, simpler, dissipative contact model that can also reproduce the MD results.

description: Substantial efforts have been applied to engineer CA with desired emergent properties, such as supporting gliders. Recent work in continuous CA has generated a wide variety of compelling bioreminiscent patterns, and the expansion of CA research into continuously-valued domains, multiple channels, and higher dimensions complicates their study. In this work we devise a strategy for evolving CA and CA patterns in two steps, based on the simple idea that CA are likely to be complex and computationally capable if they support patterns that grow indefinitely as well as patterns that vanish completely, and are difficult to predict the difference in advance. The second part of our strategy evolves patterns by selecting for mobility and conservation of mean cell value. We validate our pattern evolution method by re-discovering gliders in 17 of 17 Lenia CA, and also report 4 new evolved CA and 1 randomly evolved CA that support novel evolved glider patterns. The CA reported here share neighborhood kernels with previously described Lenia CA, but exhibit a wider range of typical dynamics than their Lenia counterparts. Code for evolving continuous CA is made available under an MIT License (https://github.com/rivesunder/yuca).

description: In July 2005, the United States Surgeon General issued a national Call for Action to Improve the Health and Wellness of Persons with Disabilities. This article offers one response. Drawing on the best practices of consumer-driven health programs for people with disabilities, we offer a Disability-Competent Health System model. The model integrates health and social services to maximize opportunities for independent living and person-centered care. This approach is an opportunity for the independent living movement to address health-related issues without subscribing to the medical model.

description: Background: Burnout is an occupational phenomenon with the potential to affect a person's physical and mental health, job satisfaction and quality of work. There is evidence of burnout occurring in the midwifery profession, but inadequate data on the prevalence of, and the factors associated with, burnout. Aim: Identify the prevalence of burnout in a population of midwives and explore what individual and workforce characteristics, and what occupational stressors, were associated with burnout. Methods: A cross-sectional survey of permanently employed midwives was conducted in a tertiary maternity service in Melbourne, Australia in 2017. Data collected included individual and workforce-related characteristics and occupational stressors. Burnout was explored using the Copenhagen Burnout Inventory. Univariate and multivariate analyses were conducted to ascertain associations between respondents’ characteristics, stressors, and burnout levels. Findings: A total of 257/266 midwives (97%) responded. There were significant levels of exhaustion and fatigue among respondents; 68% of midwives were experiencing personal burnout, 51% work-related burnout, and 10% were experiencing client-related burnout. Being aged ≤ 35 years, and/or having inadequate support was associated with personal and work-related burnout. Having inadequate acknowledgement was associated with client-related burnout. Conclusion: Health services need to understand the risk factors for burnout among midwives, identify and support groups that are most vulnerable, and address areas that are amenable to intervention. In our context this means ensuring midwives receive adequate acknowledgement and support, particularly younger midwives. These findings need to be tested in other settings to help inform a broader understanding and ensure the sustainability of the midwifery profession.

description: Impacts may have had a significant effect on the atmospheric chemistry of the early Earth. Reduced phases in the impactor (e.g., metallic iron) can reduce the planet's H$_2$O inventory to produce massive atmospheres rich in H$_2$. Whilst previous studies have focused on the interactions between the impactor and atmosphere in such scenarios, we investigate two further effects, 1) the distribution of the impactor's iron inventory during impact between the target interior, target atmosphere, and escaping the target, and 2) interactions between the post-impact atmosphere and the impact-generated melt phase. We find that these two effects can potentially counterbalance each other, with the melt-atmosphere interactions acting to restore reducing power to the atmosphere that was initially accreted by the melt phase. For a $\sim10^{22}\,\mathrm{kg}$ impactor, when the iron accreted by the melt phase is fully available to reduce this melt, we find an equilibrium atmosphere with H$_2$ column density $\sim10^4\,\mathrm{moles\,cm^{-2}}$ ($p\mathrm{H2}\sim120\,\mathrm{bars}\mathrm{,}~X_\mathrm{H2}\sim0.77$), consistent with previous estimates. However, when the iron is not available to reduce the melt (e.g., sinking out in large diameter blobs), we find significantly less H$_2$ ($7\times10^2-5\times10^3\,\mathrm{moles\,cm^{-2}}$, $p\mathrm{H2}\lesssim60\,\mathrm{bars}\mathrm{,}~X_\mathrm{H2}\lesssim0.41$). These lower H$_2$ abundances are sufficiently high that species important to prebiotic chemistry can form (e.g., NH3, HCN), but sufficiently low that the greenhouse heating effects associated with highly reducing atmospheres, which are problematic to such chemistry, are suppressed. The manner in which iron is accreted by the impact-generated melt phase is critical in determining the reducing power of the atmosphere and re-solidified melt pool in the aftermath of impact.
