description: Over the last decade, single-molecule optical microscopy has become the gold-standard approach to decipher complex molecular processes in cellular environments. [1-3] Single-molecule fluorescence microscopy has several advantages such as ease of application, high sensitivity, low invasiveness and versatility due the large number of available fluorescent probes. It bears however some drawbacks related to the poor photostability of organic dye molecules [4] and auto-fluorescent proteins [5-7] and and to the relatively large size of semiconductor nanoparticles in the context of live cell applications. [4,8,9] The overall size of the functional biomarkers is a general issue for any imaging approach because of steric hindrance effects in confined cell regions. Small red-shifted nano-emitters that are highly photostable are not currently available, while they would combine the best physical and optical penetration properties in biological tissues. Although single-molecule absorption microscopy was early used to detect single-molecules [10] at cryogenic temperatures, it is only with the advent of photothermal microscopy [11,12] that practical applications of absorption microscopy were developed in single-molecule research.

description: We study the thermodynamics of U(N) N=4 Super Yang-Mills (SYM) on RxS^3 with non-zero chemical potentials for the SU(4) R-symmetry. We find that when we are near a point with zero temperature and critical chemical potential, N=4 SYM on RxS^3 reduces to a quantum mechanical theory. We identify three such critical regions giving rise to three different quantum mechanical theories. Two of them have a Hilbert space given by the SU(2) and SU(2|3) sectors of N=4 SYM of recent interest in the study of integrability, while the third one is the half-BPS sector dual to bubbling AdS geometries. In the planar limit the three quantum mechanical theories can be seen as spin chains. In particular, we identify a near-critical region in which N=4 SYM on RxS^3 essentially reduces to the ferromagnetic XXX_{1/2} Heisenberg spin chain. We find furthermore a limit in which this relation becomes exact.

description: 2021 was yet another critical year in which climate change and global warming fought for media attention amid competing interests in other stories, events and issues around the globe. Stories were told and written through primary and often intersecting, political, economic, scientific, cultural as well as ecological and meteorological themes. At the global level, across the full year 2021 media attention increased 55% from 2020. This was somewhat of a rebound in attention from a 2020 that saw coverage 23% lower than 2019. Compared to 2019, coverage was up 19%. 2021 coverage was more than double the amount of coverage in each 2016, 2017 and 2018, and 90% up from 2015. In fact, 2021 was the year with the highest amount of coverage of climate change or global warming since our global-level monitoring began 18 years ago in 2004.
Multi-Proxy Approach to Robustly Capture Earthquake Temperature Rise at the Punchbowl Fault, California
Creators: name: Armstrong, Emma M.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2021

description: Earthquakes produce heat along a fault surface from friction created as two blocks of rock move past each other. The amount of heat generated depends on a variety of factors, including rock type, stresses, and thickness of the fault zone. Identifying evidence for and quantifying this earthquake (coseismic) temperature rise are essential for identifying past earthquakes in the rock record. Indirect methods, such as textures and geochemical signatures that change with temperature, can serve as paleothermometers. Here we compare two paleothermometers, biomarkers and thermochronometry, from two transects across the Punchbowl fault (PF), California. The PF is an ancient fault strand of the San Andreas fault system and is similarly a strike-slip fault that experienced past earthquakes. Biomarkers are organic materials in rocks whose chemical character changes with temperature, such as coseismic friction-generated heat. On the PF, biomarkers indicate temperature rise of ~460-1060 ̊C (Savage & Polissar, 2019, Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems). Minerals such as zircon are amenable to (U-Th)/He thermochronometry, where He is produced from the radioactive decay of isotopes of U and Th and can escape zircon crystals as a function of temperature.
(U-Th)/He results, reported as dates, from zircon crystals extracted from the PF itself and dates away from a fault are similar, ~10 to 65 million years old, and define similar patterns between date and mineral chemistry. This implies that temperatures in the fault zone were insufficient to cause He loss from zircon crystals. These results, together with numerical models, refine the temperature rise estimates to less than 600-750 ̊C. Our data imply there is variable temperature rise on the PF in space and time. Due to the abundance of zircon crystals in fault rocks, thermochronometry methods are potentially useful for quantifying coseismic temperatures in other fault zones worldwide.
Ongoing outreach and education activities related to scientific drilling along the San Andreas fault complement PF research. Activities include an interactive poster, lecture series, and an informational video with an associated assignment targeted for distinct audiences, including Cache Valley residents, and non-geoscience-majors. The objective of these activities is to increase awareness of geosciences, fault zone research, and scientific drilling.

description: Following recent developments, we employ the AdS/CFT correspondence to determine the drag force exerted on an external quark that moves through an N=4 super-Yang-Mills plasma with a non-zero R-charge density (or, equivalently, a non-zero chemical potential). We find that the drag force is larger than in the case where the plasma is neutral, but the dependence on the charge is non-monotonic.

Predator Defense and Host Selection Behavior of Billbugs (Coleoptera: Dryophthoridae)
Creators: name: Wickwar, Desireè M.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2021

description: Billbugs are a complex of weevils that feed on the roots of turfgrass, causing severe damage to the plants. These pests are traditionally managed with applications of insecticides. However, there is a need for non-chemical management tools. Here I investigate billbug behavior in relation to two potential avenues for more sustainable management: using resident predators to suppress billbugs (Chapter II) and selecting specific turfgrasses that resist billbug damage (Chapter III). In Chapter II, I investigate the effects of predator presence and cues associated with their presence on billbug behavior. Though resident predators contribute very little to billbug suppression through directly killing and consuming billbugs, I found that the presence of predators caused billbugs to spend less time feeding and mating, and more time on predator avoidance behaviors. Moreover, predator odor alone induced similar changes, suggesting that adult billbug detect predators using their odor. Although predators do not often directly consume billbugs, their presence may still contribute to billbug suppression. My findings also provide the framework for further investigation of predator chemicals as a potential billbug management tool. In chapter III, I examine adult billbug preferences for water stressed turfgrasses, and turfgrass cultivars with different drought resistance traits. I found that billbugs were more abundant in drier areas, and that billbug damage was higher in turfgrass with low drought resistance. While billbugs did prefer some turfgrasses over others, they did not prefer drought stressed or drought susceptible plants. Drought resistant turfgrasses are available to alleviate drought stress and may generally suffer less billbug damage, however, this does not appear to be a function of repelling adult billbugs. Continued evaluation of the factors that drive billbug preferences among turfgrasses, and turfgrass of traits associated with lower billbug damage could guide cultivar development against two key stressors, drought and billbugs, in the Intermountain West. Overall, my research shows that short term changes in turfgrass management practices, such as conserving the natural predator community and selecting specific types of turfgrass, could assist in billbug management. In the long term, investigation of billbug management using predator chemicals and development of turfgrasses that resist billbug damage could form the basis of sustainable billbug management programs.

description: One challenge of implementing spoken dialogue systems for long-term interaction is how to adapt the dialogue as user and system become more familiar. We believe this challenge includes evoking and signaling aspects of long-term relationships such as rapport. For tutoring systems, this may additionally require knowing how relationships are signaled among non-adult users. We therefore investigate conversational strategies used by teenagers in peer tutoring dialogues, and how these strategies function differently among friends or strangers. In particular, we use annotated and automatically extracted linguistic devices to predict impoliteness and positivity in the next turn. To take into account the sparse nature of these features in real data we use models including Lasso, ridge estimator, and elastic net. We evaluate the predictive power of our models under various settings, and compare our sparse models with standard non-sparse solutions. Our experiments demonstrate that our models are more accurate than non-sparse models quantitatively, and that teens use unexpected kinds of language to do relationship work such as signaling rapport, but friends and strangers, tutors and tutees, carry out this work in quite different ways from one another.
The FluxCompensator: Making Radiative Transfer Models of hydrodynamical Simulations Directly Comparable to Real Observations

description: When modeling astronomical objects throughout the universe, it is important to correctly treat the limitations of the data, for instance finite resolution and sensitivity. In order to simulate these effects, and to make radiative transfer models directly comparable to real observations, we have developed an open-source Python package called the FluxCompensator that enables the post-processing of the output of 3-d Monte-Carlo radiative transfer codes, such as HYPERION. With the FluxCompensator, realistic synthetic observations can be generated by modelling the effects of convolution with arbitrary point-spread functions (PSFs), transmission curves, finite pixel resolution, noise and reddening. Pipelines can be applied to compute synthetic observations that simulate observatories, such as the Spitzer Space Telescope or the Herschel Space Observatory. Additionally, this tool can read in existing observations (e.g. FITS format) and use the same settings for the synthetic observations. In this paper, we describe the package as well as present examples of such synthetic observations.

description: We study quantum entanglement in a single-level quantum dot in the linear-response regime. The results show, that the maximal quantum value of the conductance 2e^2/h not always match the maximal entanglement. The pairwise entanglement between the quantum dot and the nearest atom of the lead is also analyzed by utilizing the Wootters formula for charge and spin degrees of freedom separately. The coexistence of zero concurrence and the maximal conductance is observed for low values of the dot-lead hybridization. Moreover, the pairwise concurrence vanish simultaneously for charge and spin degrees of freedom, when the Kondo resonance is present in the system. The values of a Kondo temperature, corresponding to the zero-concurrence boundary, are also provided.

Control of Series Connected Battery Powered Modules

Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2021

description: Batteries are a very common type of power source used for all sorts of applications. However, these batteries do not last forever. The purpose of this thesis is to explain and implement a strategy which allows batteries to have a second life; to be able to be re-charged and re-used for another set period of time once they no longer meet a system’s requirements. The preferable way to do this is to make each cell have the same state of charge (SOC) which will lead to a longer lasting battery pack. These batteries will be hooked up to a battery powered module (BPM) for charging, and these BPMs will need to be controlled by a battery management system (BMS). This BMS, also known as string controller board, sends commands to the several BPMs connected. This thesis goes over the strategy implemented to achieve this objective, with the result focusing on the regulation of output voltage and cell SOC.

description: {Context}. The HIFI instrument on the Herschel Space Observatory performed over 9100 astronomical observations, almost 900 of which were calibration observations in the course of the nearly four-year Herschel mission. The data from each observation had to be converted from raw telemetry into calibrated products and were included in the Herschel Science Archive. {Aims}. The HIFI pipeline was designed to provide robust conversion from raw telemetry into calibrated data throughout all phases of the HIFI missions. Pre-launch laboratory testing was supported as were routine mission operations. {Methods}. A modular software design allowed components to be easily added, removed, amended and/or extended as the understanding of the HIFI data developed during and after mission operations. {Results}. The HIFI pipeline processed data from all HIFI observing modes within the Herschel automated processing environment as well as within an interactive environment. The same software can be used by the general astronomical community to reprocess any standard HIFI observation. The pipeline also recorded the consistency of processing results and provided automated quality reports. Many pipeline modules were in use since the HIFI pre-launch instrument level testing. {Conclusions}. Processing in steps facilitated data analysis to discover and address instrument artefacts and uncertainties. The availability of the same pipeline components from pre-launch throughout the mission made for well-understood, tested, and stable processing. A smooth transition from one phase to the next significantly enhanced processing reliability and robustness.

description: The hour-glass-like dispersion of spin excitations is a common feature of underdoped cuprates. It was qualitatively explained by the random phase approximation based on various ordered states with some phenomenological parameters; however, its origin remains elusive. Here, we present a numerical study of spin dynamics in the $t$-$J$ model using the variational Monte Carlo method. This parameter-free method satisfies the no double-occupancy constraint of the model and thus provides a better evaluation on the spin dynamics with respect to various mean-field trial states. We conclude that the lower branch of the hour-glass dispersion is a collective mode and the upper branch is more likely the consequence of the stripe state than the other candidates.

description: Using new APEX and JCMT spectroscopy of the CO 2-1 line, we undertake a controlled study of cold molecular gas in moderately luminous Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) and inactive galaxies from the Luminous Local AGN with Matched Analogs (LLAMA) survey. We use spatially resolved infrared photometry of the LLAMA galaxies from 2MASS, WISE, IRAS & Herschel, corrected for nuclear emission using multi-component spectral energy distribution (SED) fits, to examine the dust-reprocessed star-formation rates (SFRs), molecular gas fractions and star formation efficiencies (SFEs) over their central 1 - 3 kpc. We find that the gas fractions and central SFEs of both active and inactive galaxies are similar when controlling for host stellar mass and morphology (Hubble type). The equivalent central molecular gas depletion times are consistent with the discs of normal spiral galaxies in the local Universe. Despite energetic arguments that the AGN in LLAMA should be capable of disrupting the observable cold molecular gas in their central environments, our results indicate that nuclear radiation only couples weakly with this phase. We find a mild preference for obscured AGN to contain higher amounts of central molecular gas, which suggests a connection between AGN obscuration and the gaseous environment of the nucleus. Systems with depressed SFEs are not found among the LLAMA AGN. We speculate that the processes that sustain the collapse of molecular gas into dense pre-stellar cores may also be a prerequisite for the inflow of material on to AGN accretion disks.

description: Opportunities to provide clinical immersion experiences to bioengineering undergraduate students have expanded over the last several years. These programs allow students to observe the clinical environment in order to better understand workflow processes, the context in which medical equipment is used, and identify unmet needs firsthand. While each program focuses on identifying unmet needs, these experiences vary in content and implementation. Here we discuss features of clinical immersion programs, share details of our program after six years, and present data regarding post-graduation employment of our participants. Students who participated in the University of Illinois at Chicago Clinical Immersion Program are not more likely to pursue careers in industry as compared to non-participants, nor do they demonstrate an ability to find a job more quickly than non-participants. However, participants who did enter into industry self-reported that the program was impactful to both their career interests and ability to find their first employment position.

description: The regulation of cellular function is often controlled at the level of gene transcription. Such genetic regulation usually consists of interacting networks, whereby gene products from a single network can act to control their own expression or the production of protein in another network. Engineered control of cellular function through the design and manipulation of such networks lies within the constraints of current technology. Here we develop a model describing the regulation of gene expression, and elucidate the effects of noise on the formulation. We consider a single network derived from bacteriophage $λ$, and construct a two-parameter deterministic model describing the temporal evolution of the concentration of $λ$ repressor protein. Bistability in the steady-state protein concentration arises naturally, and we show how the bistable regime is enhanced with the addition of the first operator site in the promotor region. We then show how additive and multiplicative external noise can be used to regulate expression. In the additive case, we demonstrate the utility of such control through the construction of a protein switch, whereby protein production is turned ``on'' and ``off'' using short noise pulses. In the multiplicative case, we show that small deviations in the transcription rate can lead to large fluctuations in the production of protein, and describe how these fluctuations can be used to amplify protein production significantly. These novel results suggest that an external noise source could be used as a switch and/or amplifier for gene expression. Such a development could have important implications for gene therapy.

description: The huge variance of human pose and the misalignment of detected human images significantly increase the difficulty of person Re-Identification (Re-ID). Moreover, efficient Re-ID systems are required to cope with the massive visual data being produced by video surveillance systems. Targeting to solve these problems, this work proposes a Global-Local-Alignment Descriptor (GLAD) and an efficient indexing and retrieval framework, respectively. GLAD explicitly leverages the local and global cues in human body to generate a discriminative and robust representation. It consists of part extraction and descriptor learning modules, where several part regions are first detected and then deep neural networks are designed for representation learning on both the local and global regions. A hierarchical indexing and retrieval framework is designed to eliminate the huge redundancy in the gallery set, and accelerate the online Re-ID procedure. Extensive experimental results show GLAD achieves competitive accuracy compared to the state-of-the-art methods. Our retrieval framework significantly accelerates the online Re-ID procedure without loss of accuracy. Therefore, this work has potential to work better on person Re-ID tasks in real scenarios.

Mixed quark-nucleon phase in neutron stars and nuclear symmetry energy

description: The influence of the nuclear symmetry energy on the formation of a mixed quark-nucleon phase in neutron star cores is studied. We use simple parametrizations of the nuclear matter equation of state, and the bag model for the quark phase. The behavior of nucleon matter isobars, which is responsible for the existence of the mixed phase, is investigated. The role of the nuclear symmetry energy changes with the value of the bag constant B. For lower values of B the properties of the mixed phase do not depend strongly on the symmetry energy. For larger B we find that a critical pressure for the first quark droplets to form is strongly dependent on the nuclear symmetry energy, but the pressure at which last nucleons disappear is independent of it.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

title: Complex Project Management: Matching Organisational Problems and Project Management Methodologies
Creators: name: Costantini, Silvana
Publisher: name: The Open University

description: Organisations must adapt to their changing business environment to remain profitable, competitive and able to meet their strategic goals, with projects often the instruments used to do so. A project is a temporary endeavour aimed at creating a unique product or service, or at meeting a specific strategic objective, with Project Management (PM) the application of knowledge, skills, tools, and techniques to project activities to reach such an outcome. These are usually combined in specific PM methodologies, which may have a profound impact on project success. With organisational problems of increasing complexity and volatility, there is a growing recognition that better PM methodologies should be developed to deal with these characteristics, and that PM should be seen as a form of complex problem solving. This has led to an increase in hybrid PM approaches, with practitioners attempting to reap the benefits of combining the discipline of predictive PM methodologies with the flexibility of adaptive ones. However, both deep insights into such practices and methodological support for hybridisation are still lacking. This context drives our research, whose overall aim is to investigate the relation between organisational problem characteristics and parametrisation of PM practices, and to establish the extent an existing problem solving framework, Problem Oriented Engineering (POE), with roots in design and engineering, may provide the heoretical and methodological basis for project parametrisation and more systematic hybridisation. We take a mixed method approach, including both secondary and primary research. Specifically, we conduct a literature analysis and a practitioner survey to propose a fine grain mapping between volatility and complexity dimensions of organisational problems and risk controls in predictive and adaptive PM methodologies, as a first step towards the systematisation of hybrid combinations in projects. Simultaneously, we develop our interpretation of PM processes and practices within the POE framework. Finally, by drawing our findings together, we propose a systematic approach for the parametrisation of PM processes in the face of complexity and volatility with the objective to better mitigate the risks arising from them, which we test and validate in two case studies. The outcomes of our research contribute both to knowledge and practice: we provide both an extension and novel application of POE to the PM discipline, and a systematic approach to project parametrisation, which may support project managers in their daily practice.

description: We have investigated macroscopic quantum tunneling in Bi$_2$Sr$_2$CaCu$_2$O$_{8+δ}$ intrinsic Josephson junctions at millikelvin temperatures using microwave irradiation. Measurements show that the escape rate for uniformly switching stacks of N junctions is about $N^2$ times higher than that of a single junction having the same plasma frequency. We argue that this gigantic enhancement of macroscopic quantum tunneling rate in stacks is boosted by current fluctuations which occur in the series array of junctions loaded by the impedance of the environment.

description: We investigate the relationship between the black hole accretion rate (BHAR) and star-formation rate (SFR) for Milky Way (MW) and Andromeda (M31)-mass progenitors from z = 0.2 - 2.5. We source galaxies from the Ks-band selected ZFOURGE survey, which includes multi-wavelenth data spanning 0.3 - 160um. We use decomposition software to split the observed SEDs of our galaxies into their active galactic nuclei (AGN) and star-forming components, which allows us to estimate BHARs and SFRs from the infrared (IR). We perform tests to check the robustness of these estimates, including a comparison to BHARs and SFRs derived from X-ray stacking and far-IR analysis, respectively. We find as the progenit- ors evolve, their relative black hole-galaxy growth (i.e. their BHAR/SFR ratio) increases from low to high redshift. The MW-mass progenitors exhibit a log-log slope of 0.64 +/- 0.11, while the M31-mass progenitors are 0.39 +/- 0.08. This result contrasts with previous studies that find an almost flat slope when adopting X-ray/AGN-selected or mass-limited samples and is likely due to their use of a broad mixture of galaxies with different evolutionary histories. Our use of progenitor-matched samples highlights the potential importance of carefully selecting progenitors when searching for evolutionary relationships between BHAR/SFRs. Additionally, our finding that BHAR/SFR ratios do not track the rate at which progenitors quench casts doubts over the idea that the suppression of star-formation is predominantly driven by luminous AGN feedback (i.e. high BHARs).

description: The stochastic nature of the IMF in young stellar clusters implies that clusters of the same mass and age do not present the same unique values of their observed parameters. Instead they follow a distribution. We address the study of such distributions, parameterised in terms of their confidence limits, in evolutionary synthesis models. These confidence limits can be understood as the inherent uncertainties of the synthesis models. Here we concentrate on some parameters such as EW(Hb) in emission. For instance, we show that for a cluster where 10^5 Mo have been transformed into stars, the dispersion of EW(Hb) is about 18% within the 90% confidence levels at ages between 3.5 and 5 Myrs.
