description: Stochastic resonance (SR) is a well known phenomenon in dynamical systems. It consists of the amplification and optimization of the response of a system assisted by stochastic noise. Here we carry out the first experimental study of SR in single DNA hairpins which exhibit cooperatively folding/unfolding transitions under the action of an applied oscillating mechanical force with optical tweezers. By varying the frequency of the force oscillation, we investigated the folding/unfolding kinetics of DNA hairpins in a periodically driven bistable free-energy potential. We measured several SR quantifiers under varied conditions of the experimental setup such as trap stiffness and length of the molecular handles used for single-molecule manipulation. We find that the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of the spectral density of measured fluctuations in molecular extension of the DNA hairpins is a good quantifier of the SR. The frequency dependence of the SNR exhibits a peak at a frequency value given by the resonance matching condition. Finally, we carried out experiments in short hairpins that show how SR might be useful to enhance the detection of conformational molecular transitions of low SNR.

description: Quantum fluctuation of light limits the sensitivity of advanced laser interferometric gravitational-wave detectors. It is one of the principal obstacles on the way towards the next-generation gravitational-wave observatories. The envisioned significant improvement of the detector sensitivity requires using quantum non-demolition measurement and back-action evasion techniques, which allow us to circumvent the sensitivity limit imposed by the Heisenberg uncertainty principle. In our previous review article (Danilishin and Khalili in Living Rev Relativ 15:5, 2012), we laid down the basic principles of quantum measurement theory and provided the framework for analysing the quantum noise of interferometers. The scope of this paper is to review novel techniques for quantum noise suppression proposed in the recent years and put them in the same framework. Our delineation of interferometry schemes and topologies is intended as an aid in the process of selecting the design for the next-generation gravitational-wave observatories. © 2019, The Author(s).

description: We present broadband observations and analysis of Swift gamma-ray burst (GRB) 120119A. Our early-time afterglow detections began under 15 s after the burst in the host frame (redshift z = 1.73), and they yield constraints on the burst energetics and local environment. Late-time afterglow observations of the burst show evidence for a moderate column of dust (A_V ~ 1.1 mag) similar to, but statistically distinct from, dust seen along Small Magellanic Cloud sightlines. Deep late-time observations reveal a dusty, rapidly star-forming host galaxy. Most notably, our early-time observations exhibit a significant red-to-blue colour change in the first ~200 s after the trigger at levels heretofore unseen in GRB afterglows. This colour change, which is coincident with the final phases of the prompt emission, is a hallmark prediction of the photodestruction of dust in GRB afterglows. We test whether dust-destruction signatures are significantly distinct from other sources of colour change, namely a change in the intrinsic spectral index β. We find that a time-varying power-law spectrum alone cannot adequately describe the observed colour change, and allowing for dust destruction (via a time-varying A_V) significantly improves the fit. While not definitively ruling out other possibilities, this event provides the best support yet for the direct detection of dust destruction in the local environment of a GRB.

description: Electronic properties of low dimensional structures on surfaces can be comprehensively explored by surface transport experiments. However, the surface sensitivity of this technique to atomic structures comes along with the control of bulk related electron paths and internal interfaces. Here we analyzed the role of Schottky-barriers and space charge layers for Si-surfaces. By means of a metal submonolayer coverage deposited on vicinal Si(1 1 1), we reliably accessed subsurface transport channels via angle- and temperature-dependent in situ transport measurements. In particular, high temperature treatments performed under ultra high vacuum conditions led to the formation of surface-near bulk defects, e.g. SiC-interstitials. Obviously, these defects act as p-type dopants and easily overcompensate lightly n-doped Si substrates.

description: The pressure-temperature phase diagram of an intermediate-valence compound YbPd was revealed via simultaneous ac-calorimetry and electrical resistivity measurements. Two successive structural phase transition temperatures, $T_1$ = 125 K and $T_2$ = 110 K, are found to decrease with increasing pressure. The magnetic ordering transition at $T_{\rm N} ~sim$ 1.9 K decreases monotonically up to 1.7 GPa and disappears discontinuously at $P_{\rm c} sim$ 1.9 GPa, where the structural phase transition at $T_2$ is also suppressed. At $P_{\rm c}$, enhancement of the effective mass and residual resistivity are observed. Another probable magnetic phase transition, however, is found to take place at $T_{\rm ML} sim$0.3 K and smoothly varies even when crossing $P_{\rm c}$. Structural phase transitions at ambient pressure were also studied by a single crystal X-ray diffraction measurement. Below $T_2$, a tetragonal lattice distortion with doubling of the unit cell along the c-axis is observed, and thus there are two inequivalent Yb-sites below $P_{\rm c}$. These results indicate that one Yb-site, having larger valence configuration and thus smaller Kondo temperature, orders at $T_{\rm N}$. The other phase transition at $T_{\rm ML}$ seems to couple to the crystal structure for $T_2 < T < T_1$. YbPd is a unique system exhibiting magnetic orderings in metallic charge-ordered Yb systems.

description: Abstract

The transformation of the civil engineering industry poses new requirements for talent cultivation. However, there are prominent issues in traditional teaching models, such as a singular teaching format, lack of breakthroughs in practical courses, and unreasonable assessment methods. To address this, it is imperative to integrate BIM and VR technologies into civil engineering education to achieve concretization of teaching content, diversification of teaching formats, and scientific assessment methods. This transformation and innovation in teaching models aim to enhance the quality of talent cultivation and promote the sustainable development of the civil engineering field.
LEVIS Project D7.6 Final Technology Watch Report
Creators: name: Steinbeis Europa Zentrum
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2024

description: The present report compiles information collected in the Technology Watch (TW) of LEVIS, focused on the identification of products or solutions like those developed in the project.

The aim of the TW in LEVIS is to look for solutions already available on the market and possibly developed in other European projects that are similar to those developed in LEVIS. This shall avoid duplication of results, enable the early comparison of LEVIS results with other developments and therefore allow improvements and adjustments in the development of the project results and a better definition of our unique selling proposition (USP).

In the first chapter of this report, the general introduction and contribution of partners to the TW are given. The objectives and the expected impact are explained in the second chapter. The third chapter describes the overall methodology of the TW with the specific steps to be deployed. Information was collected from classical sources such as scientific and technical publications as well as from past or running European-funded projects in the field of advanced lightweight materials for electric vehicles (EVs). The results of the TW activities are reported in chapter 4. Possible deviations and links of the TW with other work packages (WPs) are described in chapters 5 and 6. A general conclusion is given in chapter 7.

This deliverable is the final TW Report submitted at the end of the project (M42), updating the preliminary TW report submitted by M24. It includes a summary of the main outputs of the TW and recommendations for the development of LEVIS exploitable results and their exploitation beyond the project.

description: Charge carrier dynamics in phase pure Ba5Ta4O15 and in a Ba5Ta4O15–Ba3Ta5O15 composite have been studied by means of diffuse reflectance laser flash photolysis spectroscopy in the presence and absence of an electron donor, in order to reveal the reason for the improved photocatalytic performance of the latter. For the first time the transient absorption of trapped electrons with a maximum at around 650 nm and of trapped holes with a transient absorption maximum at around 310 nm is reported for tantalates. The decay kinetics of the photogenerated charge carriers could be fitted by second order reaction kinetics, and the direct recombination of the trapped electrons with the trapped holes was proven. In the absence of an electron donor, no difference in the decay behavior between the phase pure material and the composite material is found. In the presence of methanol, for the pure phase Ba5Ta4O15 the recombination of the charge carriers could not be prevented and the trapped electrons also recombine with the ˙CH2OH radical formed via the methanol oxidation by the trapped holes. However, in the composite, the electron can be stored in the system, the ˙CH2OH radical injects an electron into the conduction band of the second component of the composite, i.e., Ba3Ta5O15. Thus, the electrons are available for an extended period to induce reduction reactions.

description: A significant challenge in the development of chip-scale cavity-optomechanical devices as testbeds for quantum experiments and classical metrology lies in the coupling of light from nanoscale optical mode volumes to conventional optical components such as lenses and fibers. In this work we demonstrate a high-efficiency, single-sided fiber-optic coupling platform for optomechanical cavities. By utilizing an adiabatic waveguide taper to transform a single optical mode between a photonic crystal zipper cavity and a permanently mounted fiber, we achieve a collection efficiency for intracavity photons of 52% at the cavity resonance wavelength of 1538nm. An optical balanced homodyne measurement of the displacement fluctuations of the fundamental in-plane mechanical resonance at 3.3 MHz reveals that the imprecision noise floor lies a factor of 2.8 above the standard quantum limit (SQL) for continuous position measurement, with a predicted total added noise of 1.4 phonons at the optimal probe power. The combination of extremely low measurement noise and robust fiber alignment presents significant progress towards single-phonon sensitivity for these sorts of integrated micro-optomechanical cavities.

description: We investigate the effect of confinement and orientation on the phonon transport properties of ultra-thin silicon layers of thicknesses between 1 nm-16 nm. We employ the modified valence force field method to model the lattice dynamics and the ballistic Landauer transport formalism to calculate the thermal conductance. We consider the major thin layer surface orientations {100}, {110}, {111}, and {112}. For every surface orientation, we study thermal conductance as a function of the transport direction within the corresponding surface plane. We find that the ballistic thermal conductance in the thin layers is anisotropic, with the {110}/<110> channels exhibiting the highest and the {112}/<111> channels the lowest thermal conductance with a ratio of about two. We find that in the case of the {110} and {112} surfaces, different transport orientations can result in ~50% anisotropy in thermal conductance. The thermal conductance of different transport orientations in the {100} and {111} layers, on the other hand, is mostly isotropic. These observations are invariant under different temperatures and layer thicknesses. We show that this behavior originates from the differences in the phonon group velocities, whereas the phonon density of states is very similar for all the thin layers examined. We finally show how the phonon velocities can be understood from the phonon spectrum of each channel. Our findings could be useful in the design of the thermal properties of ultra-thin Si layers for thermoelectric and thermal management applications.

description: Inhibition of immune checkpoint receptor Programmed Death-1 (PD-1) via monoclonal antibodies is an established anticancer immunotherapeutic approach. This treatment has been largely successful; however, its high cost demands equally effective, more affordable alternatives. To date, the development of drugs targeting downstream players in the PD-1-dependent signaling pathway has been hampered by our poor understanding of the molecular details of the intermolecular interactions involved in the pathway. Activation of PD-1 leads to phosphorylation of two signaling motifs located in its cytoplasmic domain, the immune tyrosine inhibitory motif (ITIM) and immune tyrosine switch motif (ITSM), which recruit and activate protein tyrosine phosphatase SHP2. This interaction is mediated by the two Src homology 2 (SH2) domains of SHP2, termed N-SH2 and C-SH2, which recognize phosphotyrosines pY223 and pY248 of ITIM and ITSM, respectively. SHP2 then propagates the inhibitory signal, ultimately leading to suppression of T cell functionality. In order to facilitate mechanistic structural studies of this signaling pathway, we report the resonance assignments of the complexes formed by the signaling motifs of PD-1 and the SH2 domains of SHP2. © 2020, The Author(s).

description: The document includes the main results of the Benefits project, funded by the German Ministry for Economic Affairs and Climate Protection under grant numbers 03EI5203A-C (here: version with small corrections). The joint project aimed at
 1) Identifying forms, scopes, motives and obstacles of financial participation by citizens and municipalities,
 2) Analyzing determinants of geographical and socio-economic distribution/inclusiveness of the participation of citizens and municipalities and its effectiveness for the transformation process as well as the underlying social mechanisms,
 3) Developing strategies in a transdisciplinary design to win citizens and municipalities for financial participation in the energy transition ("mobilization strategies"), which will be transferred into practice together with associations and energy and climate protection agencies.
 This should improve the data basis for analyses differentiated by forms of financial participation. The data will be made available for subsequent research work. Based on the scientific analyses in step (2), practicable concepts were developed together with practitioners.

Ohne weitergehende Untersuchung auf dem Gebiet der Antennenkalibrierung kann bereits heute der Betriebszustand eines Leistungskonverters sowie der Einfluss eines Transformators auf das Spektrum messtechnisch erfasst werden. Ebenso wird eine gute Korrelation zwischen den theoretisch ermittelten Spektren und den Frequenzbereichen erhöhter Amplitude bei aktivem Wechselrichter nachgewiesen. Zusätzlich konnte eine mögliche Beeinflussung von sogenannten "Broadband Powerline Communication Devices" und Wechselrichtern durch das gemeinsam genutzte Frequenzband aufgezeigt werden. Damit der vorgestellte Messaufbau zu einer Absolutwertmessung genutzt werden kann, sind weitergehende Untersuchungen zur rückführbaren Bestimmung des Antennenfaktors von Magnetfeldantennen notwendig.

description: Abstract

Choosing the right sampling technique and size plays a pivotal role in ensuring precision in generalization of results to the entire target population. In this regard, studies pertaining to business taxation are particularly challenging, especially in the context of the MSME sector. The present study makes a novel effort in synthesizing the rationale behind sampling methods and size adopted in extant literature pertaining to the study of tax compliance behaviour by MSMEs. Primary studies are considered, after being screened for quality with respect to certain inclusion standards. An impartial discussion is made on both probability and non-probability sampling techniques used in MSME surveys on tax compliance. The study concludes by highlighting the key factors while selecting a suitable method of sampling in studying MSME tax compliance behaviour.

Die durchgeführten Überwachungsmessungen dienten zur Bestimmung des Bauwerksverhaltens der beiden Brücken während des Rückbaus einer der jeweils gesperrten Richtungsfahrbahn im Zuge der Erneuerung der Brücken. Das hydrostatische Monitoringsystem bestand aus 10 Nivellementslinien mit insgesamt 68 Druckgefäßen, 70 Temperatursensoren und zwei Datenloggern. Alle Messwerte wurden während der Bestimmung des Normalverhaltens im Abstand von 60 Sekunden und während der regulären Betriebsphase von 15 Minuten abgefragt und per LTE-Modem an einen zentralen Monitoringserver übertragen. Auf diesem Server wurden die Prozessierung der Linien und die Visualisierung der gesamten Daten durchgeführt sowie eine kaskadierte Alarmfunktion realisiert. Während des Rückbaus der Brückenteile wurde das System im Rahmen einer 24/7 Bereitschaft betreut. Über den Betriebszeitraum von 4 Monaten wurden auf diese Weise rund 3 Millionen Messwerte registriert und verarbeitet.
Fermi LAT Study of the Cosmic-rays and the Interstellar Medium in Nearby Molecular Clouds

description: We report an analysis of the interstellar gamma-ray emission from nearby molecular clouds Chamaeleon, R Coronae Australis (R CrA), and Cepheus and Polaris flare regions with the {\it Fermi} Large Area Telescope (LAT). They are among the nearest molecular cloud complexes, within $\sim$ 300 pc from the solar system. The gamma-ray emission produced by interactions of cosmic-rays (CRs) and interstellar gas in those molecular clouds is useful to study the CR densities and distributions of molecular gas close to the solar system. The obtained gamma-ray emissivities from 250 MeV to 10 GeV for the three regions are about (6--10) $\times$ 10$^{-27}$ photons s$^{-1}$ sr$^{-1}$ H-atom$^{-1}$, indicating a variation of the CR density by $\sim$ 20% even if we consider the systematic uncertainties. The molecular mass calibration ratio, $X_{\rm CO} = N{\rm (H_2)}/W_{\rm CO}$, is found to be about (0.6--1.0) $\times$ 10$^{20}$ H$_2$-molecule cm$^{-2}$ (K km s$^{-1}$)$^{-1}$ among the three regions, suggesting a variation of $X_{\rm CO}$ in the vicinity of the solar system. From the obtained values of $X_{\rm CO}$, we calculated masses of molecular gas traced by \Wco\ in these molecular clouds. In addition, similar amounts of dark gas at the interface between the atomic and molecular gas are inferred.

description: Photoelectron momentum distributions from strong-field ionization are calculated by numerical solution of the one-electron time-dependent Schrödinger equation for a model atom including effects beyond the electric dipole approximation. We focus on the high-energy electrons from rescattering and analyze their momentum component along the field propagation direction. We show that the boundary of the calculated momentum distribution is deformed in accordance with the classical three-step model including the beyond-dipole Lorentz force. In addition, the momentum distribution exhibits an asymmetry in the signal strengths of electrons emitted in the forward/backward directions. Taken together, the two non-dipole effects give rise to a considerable average forward momentum component of the order of 0.1 a.u. for realistic laser parameters.

description: The evergreen Quercus alnifolia and Q. coccifera form the only interfertile pair of oak species growing in Cyprus. Hybridization between the two species has already been observed and studied morphologically. However, little evidence exists about the extent of genetic introgression. In the present study, we aimed to study the effects of introgressive hybridization mutually on both chloroplast and nuclear genomes. We sampled both pure and mixed populations of Q. alnifolia and Q. coccifera from several locations across their distribution area in Cyprus. We analyzed the genetic variation within and between species by conducting Analysis of Molecular Variance (AMOVA) based on nuclear microsatellites. Population genetic structure and levels of admixture were studied by means of a Bayesian analysis (STRUCTURE simulation analysis). Chloroplast DNA microsatellites were used for a spatial analysis of genetic barriers. The main part of the nuclear genetic variation was explained by partition into species groups. High interspecific differentiation and low admixture of nuclear genomes, both in pure and mixed populations, support limited genetic introgression between Q. alnifolia and Q. coccifera in Cyprus. On the contrary, chloroplast DNA haplotypes were shared between the species and were locally structured suggesting cytoplasmic introgression. Occasional hybridization events followed by backcrossings with both parental species might lead to this pattern of genetic differentiation.

description: The complexity of tospovirus–vector–host plant interaction is linked to a range of factors influencing vector's efficacy in virus transmission, leading to high variability in the transmission efficiency within vector populations. Main shortcomings of most studies are the missing information on the intrinsic potential of individual insects to serve as efficient vectors, both at phenotypic and at genotypic levels. Moreover, detailed analysis of vector competence heredity and monitoring the splitting of both genotypes and phenotypes in filial generations has not been reported. In this study, using the model system Frankliniella occidentalis and Tomato spotted wilt virus, we evaluated the inheritance and stability of the trait vector competence in a population through basic crossings of individually characterized partners, as well as virgin reproduction. We hypothesized that the trait is heritable in F. occidentalis and is controlled by a recessive allele. From the results, 83% and 94% of competent and noncompetent males respectively, inherited their status from their mothers. The trait was only expressed when females were homozygous for the corresponding allele. Furthermore, the allele frequencies were different between males and females, and the competent allele had the highest frequency in the population. These suggest that the trait vector competence is inherited in single recessive gene in F. occidentalis, for which the phenotype is determined by the haplodiploid mechanism. These findings are fundamental for our understanding of the temporal and spatial variability within vector populations with respect to the trait vector competence and at the same time offer an essential basis for further molecular studies.

description: In der heutigen Zeit erfordert der Markt immer kürzer werdende Auslieferungszeiten von qualitativ hochwertiger Software. Dies geht mit kürzeren Entwicklungszyklen einher. Viele Ansätze zur Verbesserung des Softwareentwicklungsprozesses schlagen die Integration agiler Entwicklungsmethoden vor. Diese Integration ist jedoch nicht immer einfach. Große Unternehmen wie beispielsweise in der Automobilbranche treffen auf das Problem, agile Methoden in bereits existierende Softwareentwicklungsprozesse zu integrieren. Häufig basiert der Prozess auf dem Einsatz von Software-Produktlinien, die die Wiederverwendung von Software ermöglichen. Um eine Transformation des Softwareentwicklungsprozesses unter Erhaltung von Produktlinien zu unterstützten, wurde basierend auf einer Literaturstudie mit 164 Papern ein Transformationsmodell entwickelt. Diese Zusammenfassung basiert auf der Publikation “Becoming Agile While Preserving Software Product Lines: An Agile Transformation Model For Large Companies” [KHS18], die im Rahmen der International Conference on the Software and Systems Process (ICSSP 2018) veröffentlicht wurde.

description: We present a global hybrid meta-generalized gradient approximation (meta-GGA) with three empirical parameters, as well as its underlying semilocal meta-GGA and a meta-GGA with only one empirical parameter. All of them are based on the new meta-GGA resulting from the understanding of kinetic-energy-density dependence [J. Chem. Phys. 137, 051101 (2012)]. The obtained functionals show robust performances on the considered molecular systems for the properties of heats of formation, barrier heights, and noncovalent interactions. The pair-wise additive dispersion corrections to the functionals are also presented.

description: Background: The increasing demand for microalgae lipids as an alternative to fish has encouraged researchers to explore oleaginous microalgae for food uses. In this context, optimization of growth and lipid production by the marine oleaginous V2-strain-microalgae is of great interest as it contains large amounts of mono-unsaturated (MUFAs) and poly-unsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). Methods: In this study, the isolated V2 strain was identified based on 23S rRNA gene. Growth and lipid production conditions were optimized by using the response surface methodology in order to maximize its cell growth and lipid content that was quantified by both flow cytometry and the gravimetric method. The intracellular lipid bodies were detected after staining with Nile red by epifluorescence microscopy. The fatty acid profile of optimal culture conditions was determined by gas chromatography coupled to a flame ionization detector. Results: The phenotypic and phylogenetic analyses showed that the strain V2 was affiliated to Tetraselmis genus. The marine microalga is known as an interesting oleaginous species according to its high lipid production and its fatty acid composition. The optimization process showed that maximum cell abundance was achieved under the following conditions: pH: 7, salinity: 30 and photosynthetic light intensity (PAR): 133 μmol photons.m-2.s-1. In addition, the highest lipid content (49 ± 2.1% dry weight) was obtained at pH: 7, salinity: 37.23 and photosynthetic light intensity (PAR): 188 μmol photons.m-2.s-1. The fatty acid profile revealed the presence of 39.2% and 16.1% of total fatty acids of mono-unsaturated fatty acids (MUFAs) and poly-unsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs), respectively. Omega 3 (ω3), omega 6 (ω6) and omega 9 (ω9) represented 5.28%, 8.12% and 32.8% of total fatty acids, respectively. Conclusions: This study showed the successful optimization of salinity, light intensity and pH for highest growth, lipid production and a good fatty acid composition, making strain V2 highly suitable for food and nutraceutical applications. © 2016 The Author(s).
A quantitative witness for Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger entanglement

description: Along with the vast progress in experimental quantum technologies there is an increasing demand for the quantification of entanglement between three or more quantum systems. Theory still does not provide adequate tools for this purpose. The objective is, besides the quest for exact results, to develop operational methods that allow for efficient entanglement quantification. Here we put forward an analytical approach that serves both these goals. We provide a simple procedure to quantify Greenberger-Horne-Zeilinger--type multipartite entanglement in arbitrary three-qubit states. For two qubits this method is equivalent to Wootters' seminal result [Phys. Rev. Lett. 80, 2245 (1998)]. It establishes a close link between entanglement quantification and entanglement detection by witnesses, and can be generalised both to higher dimensions and to more than three parties.
