description: Pharmaceutical pollution has gained attention with the development of analytical technology. The occurrence of 91 pharmaceutically active compounds from variety of drug groups including pain killers, antimicrobials, cardiovascular drugs, hypolipidemic drugs, central nervous system drugs, and stimulants was investigated in Ceyhan River, Turkey. Pharmaceutically active compounds were examined at 9 stations, seasonally during the periods of September 2013–August 2014. For the pharmaceutically active compound analysis, solid phase extraction (SPE) method was used and measured by using liquid chromatography tandem mass spectrometry (LC-MS/MS). Highest measured pharmaceutically active compound concentration was caffeine (4880.00 ng/L). Other high concentrated pharmaceuticals were diazepam (374.00 ng/L), gabapentin (355.00 ng/L), lidocaine (48.70 ng/L), etodolac (47.35 ng/L), metoprolol (43.60 ng/L), carbamazepine (24.25 ng/L), diclofenac (17.60 ng/L), and fluconazole (15.95 ng/L). Carbamazepine and lidocaine were the most frequently detected pharmaceutics in the river water. The results of risk assessment shows that risk quotient values (RQs) is lower than 0.01, except sertraline, which means that most of the detected pharmaceutically active compounds pose no environmental risk to aquatic environment in Ceyhan River. However, it is not possible to give precise information about the effects of all detected pharmaceutically active compounds when they behave together in the aquatic environment.

description: We study a class of structured optimal control problems in which the main diagonal of the dynamic matrix is a linear function of the design variable. While such problems are in general challenging and nonconvex, for positive systems we prove convexity of the $H_2$ and $H_\infty$ optimal control formulations which allow for arbitrary convex constraints and regularization of the control input. Moreover, we establish differentiability of the $H_\infty$ norm when the graph associated with the dynamical generator is weakly connected and develop a customized algorithm for computing the optimal solution even in the absence of differentiability. We apply our results to the problems of leader selection in directed consensus networks and combination drug therapy for HIV treatment. In the context of leader selection, we address the combinatorial challenge by deriving upper and lower bounds on optimal performance. For combination drug therapy, we develop a customized subgradient method for efficient treatment of diseases whose mutation patterns are not connected.

description: La firma del Acuerdo Final de Paz entre el Gobierno de Colombia y las FARC-EP implicó la formulación de una Reforma Rural Integral (RRI) que disminuya la conflictividad social y política de la ruralidad colombiana. La implementación de dicha reforma requiere la acción del Estado en varios niveles, siendo el nivel municipal uno de los más importantes. Para la implementación de las disposiciones de la RRI se acordó un Plan de Implementación, el cual asignó las competencias en materia de implementación que están en cabeza de los municipios. El presente trabajo de investigación versa sobre la capacidad institucional de tipo administrativa con la que cuentan los municipios con calificación PDET del Meta para la implementación de la RRI. Para ese propósito se realiza un diagnóstico de capacidades de los municipios de Mesetas y Puerto Lleras, siguiendo el enfoque teórico que entiende las capacidades como un proceso. Luego, se plantea una comparación entre los resultados, y de ahí se identifican unas fortalezas y debilidades en cuanto a capacidad institucional de los municipios sujetos de estudio para la implementación de la RRI. Finalmente, se exponen una serie de recomendaciones de cara al proceso de fortalecimiento institucional de los municipios para dinamizar la implementación de los productos de la RRI.
description: The signing of the Final Peace Agreement between the Colombian Government and the FARC-EP implied the formulation of a Comprehensive Rural Reform (CRR) that will reduce social and political conflict in rural Colombia. The implementation of said reform requires action by the State at various levels, the municipal level being one of the most important. For implementation of the provisions of the CCR, an Implementation Plan was agreed upon, which assigned competencies in terms of implementation, which are headed by the municipalities. The present research work deals with the institutional capacity of administrative type that the municipalities with PDET qualification of Meta have for the implementation of the CRR. For this purpose, a diagnosis of capacities of the municipalities of Mesetas and Puerto Lleras is carried out, following the theoretical approach that understands capacities as a process. Then, a comparison between the results is proposed, and from there some strengths and weaknesses are identified in terms of institutional capacity of the municipalities under study for the implementation of the CRR. Finally, a series of recommendations are presented for the process of institutional strengthening of the municipalities in order to stimulate the implementation of the CRR products.

description: The peculiarities of superstructural transition (2x4) -> (3x1(6)) on the GaAs(001) surface were studied by the RHEED method in the conditions initiated by a sharp change of the arsenic flux. The specular beam intensities RHEED picture dependences on time were obtained during the transition. The measurement results were analyzed within the JMAK (Johnson - Melh - Avrami - Kolmogorov) kinetic model. It was established that the process of structural rearrangement proceeds in two stages and it is realized through the state of intermediate disordering, domains with different reconstructions being coexistent on the surface. The activation energies and phase transition velocities were determined for each of the stages. The procedure for precise determination of GaAs(001) surface temperature using the features of the a(2x4)->DO transition process kinetic was proposed. The results of this work allow us to broaden our understanding of the reconstruction transitions mechanisms. This information has a key (fundamental and applied) nature for the technologies of epitaxial growth of multilayer heterostructures, where the interface planarity and the sharpness of composition profile are of particular importance.

description: We study the topology of small covers from their fundamental groups. We find a way to obtain explicit presentations of the fundamental group of a small cover. Then we use these presentations to study the relations between the fundamental groups of a small cover and its facial submanifolds. In particular, we can determine when a facial submanifold of a small cover is $π_1$-injective in terms of some purely combinatorial data on the underlying simple polytope. In addition, we find that any 3-dimensional small cover has an embedded non-simply-connected $π_1$-injective surface. Using this result and some results of Schoen and Yau, we characterize all the 3-dimensional small covers that admit Riemannian metrics with nonnegative scalar curvature.

description: Aims. We seek to probe the Galactic bulge IMF starting from microlensing observations. Methods. We analyse the recent results of the microlensing campaigns carried out towards the Galactic bulge presented by the EROS, MACHO and OGLE collaborations. In particular, we study the duration distribution of the events. We assume a power law initial mass function, $ξ(μ)\propto μ^{-α}$, and we study the slope $α$ both in the brown dwarf and in the main sequence ranges. Moreover, we compare the observed and expected optical depth profiles. Results. The values of the mass function slopes are strongly driven by the observed timescales of the microlensing events. The analysis of the MACHO data set gives, for the main sequence stars, $α=1.7 \pm 0.5$, compatible with the result we obtain with the EROS and OGLE data sets, and a similar, though less constrained slope for brown dwarfs. The lack of short duration events in both EROS and OGLE data sets, on the other hand, only allows the determination of an \emph{upper} limit in this range of masses, making the overall result less robust. The optical depth analysis gives a very good agreement between the observed and the expected values, and we show that the available data do not allow one to discriminate between different bulge models.

description: “Science” is only one type of knowledge. There are nine faculties at the University of Ottawa; only one is named “science”, and this is typical at a large university. I strongly recommend replacing “science”, “scientists” and “open science” with more inclusive terminology such as “open scholarship” or “open knowledge”, “scholar” or “researcher” in the title and throughout the document. The Pubfair framework is an excellent beginning for a needed profound transformation in how scholars work together and disseminate research. This is the kind of approach most likely to achieve significant savings based on current spend on scholarly publishing, and these savings will be needed to support innovation in scholarly production and dissemination. My recommendation is to proceed with an iterative approach and an initial focus on helping scholarly communities with unmet needs for new forms of review and publishing, such as scholars who create and share datasets or tools using artificial intelligence, digital humanists, and scholarly bloggers. The specific needs for community input whether through review or collaboration in the planning process will vary by discipline and type of product. The work of defining needs and identifying potential solutions should be led by the scholarly community in consultation with repository managers. This is a reversal of the proposed leadership / consultation approach in the framework document. Finally, while I recommend an immediate start to this approach, my advice is to see this as a long-term radical transformation that will likely take decades to complete.

description: Technological breakthroughs have fostered an appreciation
for the microbiome and revolutionized our understanding
of many parts of the tree of life. These discoveries have implications
as far-ranging
as one can imagine, from how we
diagnose and treat ailments at the clinical bedside to questions
regarding how life emerged and diversified throughout
the biosphere. While the early study of the microbiota
focused mostly on identifying its composition, recent years
have explored the fundamental forces that shape the microbiota
and how communities are structured. In a recent
study published in PNAS, Long et al. develop a theoretical
framework that can help to explain the transient dynamics
of microbial communities, where the composition of the
microbes in a community undergoes rapid change.
The Cultural Adaptation of Health Promotion Projects in International Development

Publisher: name: My University
Year: 2020

description: While the imperative of taking into account the cultural dimension in international development project management is widely recognized, there is relatively little discussion in the literature about how this is put into practice. To address this gap, this paper explores the cultural adaptation of health promotion initiatives and its relation to project success by way of a multiple case study of four such international development projects funded by Global Affairs Canada. To this aim, project cases were studied through the analytical lens of Resnicow’s surface/deep structure framework, while also drawing on Ika’s concept of international development project success. The findings align with the argument posited in this paper and supported by many researchers and experts that adequate cultural adaptation positively affects project success and, more precisely, encourages participation and local ownership and supports project relevance and sustainability. Moreover, the use of more comprehensively participative methodologies appears to be a significant factor in attaining greater adaptation. Thus, this study adds to the existing literature arguing that cultural adaptation is a factor, and even a condition, of project success, and can also inform ID practitioners unsure of the best approach to promote the cultural fit of initiatives.

description: In order to counter the climate change, there is a need for a radical revolution in the global energy supply. One of the most realistic scenarios is a substantial shift towards renewable energy sources, supported by a flexible baseload from carbon-free nuclear energy. The main requirements for this new generation of nuclear reactors are intrinsic safety, high fuel efficiency and a minimum amount of (long-lived) radioactive waste. A promising candidate for the near future is the lead (alloy) cooled fast fission reactor. An ideal long-term solution are nuclear fusion reactors, which produce only a small amount of short-lived radioactive waste. A problem that occurs in both these reactor types is the undesired production of the highly radiotoxic polonium-210 isotope. In this PhD thesis, the total production of this isotope in a nuclear fusion reactor is determined using neutron transport and inventory calculations. Next, quantum chemical calculations are performed to predict the molecular form in which Po-210 will occur in both discussed reactor types. Combining both aspects allows to estimate the risk associated with the presence of Po-210 in a nuclear reactor and can help to design efficient Po-210 extraction systems.
Border Network Analysis for International Relations: Lessons Learned at the US-Mexico Border
Creators: name: Becker, Jessica
Publisher: name: My University
Year: 2018

description: States that will rise to the top in a changing world order will be those who possess network intelligence. In this paper, I use concepts and ideas from network analysis for international relations (IR) and apply them to border studies to explore the potential for border network analysis (BNA) to inform “web strategies” for IR. Initial observations made within the US-Mexico borderlands at El Paso (Texas), Ciudad Juárez (Chihuahua), Douglas (Arizona), Agua Prieta (Sonora), and Nogales (Arizona) have led to three conclusions about border networks: border consulates in positions of centrality can act as brokers; border network resilience depends on how networks are formed and on the level of trust between entities; and central entities within border networks can be good or bad “web actors” depending on how they chose to exert their power. Lessons learned from networks that operate “on the verge of chaos” in US-Mexico borderlands can shed light on and inform strategies of connection, cooperation and network power for a changing world order increasingly in disarray.

Influence of a Thermal Bath on The Transport Properties of an Open Molecular Junction
Creators: name: Eskandari-asl, Amir
Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics (cond-mat.mes-hall)

description: In a molecular junction (MJ) which connects two electrical leads, electron-phonon coupling has significant effects on the transport properties. However, the MJ is not thermally isolated and the phonons can be coupled to another thermal bath. For strong enough couplings, the bath thermalizes phonons on the MJ so that their number would be bias independent. However, in medium and weak coupling regimes, the number of phonons created in MJ depends on the bias voltage. Obtaining the master equation (ME) for this system and comparing the results with the case where we have no such thermal bath, we show that if the bath temperature is greater than the leads, at low bias voltages (where in the absence of the thermal bath the probability of phonon excitation is low), the thermal bath heats up our MJ and decreases electronic current. On the other hand, at high bias voltages the bath cools down MJ and increases the current. However, if the bath temperature is less than the leads, it always increases the current and the heat flows from the junction to the leads.
Connecting Holographic Wess--Zumino Consistency Conditions to the Holographic Anomaly

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The Holographic Wess--Zumino (HWZ) consistency conditions are shown through a step by step mapping of renormalization group flows to Hamiltonian systems, to lead to the Holographic anomaly. These conditions codify how the energy scale, when treated as the emergent bulk direction in Holographic theories, is put on equal footing as the other directions of the space the field theory inhabits. So, this is a defining feature of theories possessing local Holographic bulk duals. In four dimensional Holographic conformal field theories, the $a$ and $c$ anomaly coefficients are equated, and this is seen as a defining property of theories which possess General Relativity coupled to matter as a dual. Hence, showing how the former consistency conditions leads to the latter relation between anomaly coefficients adds evidence to the claim that the HWZ conditions are a defining feature of theories possessing local gravity duals.

description: Il est estimé que, en 2013, 62,428 enfants étaient placés sous les soins du système de protection au Canada (Jones, Sinha & Trocmé, 2015). Certains enfants finissent par retourner avec leurs parents biologiques, tandis que d’autres demeurent en famille d’accueil ou sont adoptés. Selon Khoo et Skoog (2014), entre 20 et 40 % des enfants placés en famille d’accueil connaissent une perturbation de placement. La problématique des perturbations de placement est peu abordée sous la perspective des parents d’accueil. Cette recherche tente de mieux comprendre l’expérience des parents d’accueil en lien avec la problématique des perturbations de placement. Elle mobilise l’approche écologique et l’analyse phénoménologique interprétative (API) afin d’explorer comment les parents d’accueil vivent les perturbations de placement et les facteurs qui contribuent à ces perturbations. Finalement, cette recherche offre des recommandations dans l’optique de prévenir les perturbations de placement. Mots-clés : famille d’accueil, système de protection, placement, approche écologique, l’analyse phénoménologique interprétative (API), perturbation de placement et expérience personnelle. Researchers have estimated that, in 2013, 62,428 children were placed in the care of child protection services in Canada (Jones, Sinha & Trocmé, 2015). Some children end up returning to their birth parents, while others remain with foster families or are adopted. According to Khoo and Skoog (2014), between 20 and 40% of children placed in foster families experience disruption. However, the issue of placement disruptions is seldom addressed from the perspectives of foster parents. This research attempts to better understand the experiences of foster parents in relation to the problem of placement disruptions. It uses the ecological approach and the interpretative phenomenological analysis (IPA) to explore foster parents’ experiences of placement disruptions and better understand the factors that contribute to such disruptions. Finally, this research offers recommendations to prevent placement disruptions. Keywords: foster family, child protection system, placement, ecological approach, interpretive phenomenological analysis (IPA), placement breakdown, and personal experience.
Balance Training With Stroboscopic Glasses and Neuromechanics in Patients With Chronic Ankle Instability During a Single-Legged Drop Landing.

Year: 2024

description: CONTEXT: Therapeutic interventions for individuals with chronic ankle instability (CAI) are recommended to improve muscle strength, postural control, and range of motion. However, their effects on neuromechanics during a drop landing remain unclear. In addition, even though therapeutic interventions with stroboscopic glasses appear to effectively improve postural control, how they affect landing neuromechanics remains unclear.
OBJECTIVE: To identify the effect of balance training with stroboscopic glasses on neuromechanics during a single-legged drop landing in patients with CAI.
DESIGN: Randomized controlled clinical trial.
SETTING: Laboratory.
PATIENTS OR OTHER PARTICIPANTS: A total of 50 participants with CAI were randomly assigned to 1 of 2 groups: strobe (n = 25; age = 22 ± 3 years, height = 174.7 ± 8.2 cm, mass = 71.8 ± 12.2 kg) or control (n = 25; age = 21 ± 2 years, height = 173.1 ± 8.3 cm, mass = 71.1 ± 13.5 kg).
INTERVENTION(S): The 4-week rehabilitation (3 sessions per week) included hop-based tasks and single-legged stance. The strobe group wore stroboscopic glasses during the training, whereas the control group did not.
MAIN OUTCOME MEASURE(S): Ankle-, knee-, and hip-joint kinematics and 4 lower extremity muscle activations 150 milliseconds before and after initial contact during a single-legged drop landing in the 2 groups.
RESULTS: The strobe group showed greater eversion (from 150 milliseconds before to 30 milliseconds after initial contact) and dorsiflexion (from 30 to 96 milliseconds after initial contact) angles and peroneal longus (from 35 milliseconds before to 5 milliseconds after initial contact) and tibialis anterior (from 0 to 120 milliseconds after initial contact) activation in the posttest than the pretest.
CONCLUSIONS: Patients with CAI who underwent a 4-week rehabilitation with stroboscopic glasses demonstrated changes in neuromechanics, including increased ankle-dorsiflexion and -eversion angles and tibialis anterior and peroneus longus activation, during a single-legged drop landing. This finding suggests that use of stroboscopic glasses during rehabilitation could help patients with CAI develop safe landing mechanics.

description: We study a two-Higgs-doublet model with four generalised CP symmetries in the scalar sector. Electroweak symmetry breaking leads automatically to spontaneous breaking of two of them. We require that these four CP symmetries can be extended from the scalar sector to the full Lagrangian and call this requirement the principle of maximal CP invariance. The Yukawa interactions of the fermions are severely restricted by this requirement. In particular, a single fermion family cannot be coupled to the Higgs fields. For two fermion families, however, this is possible. Enforcing the absence of flavour-changing neutral currents, we find degenerate masses in both families or one family massless and one massive. In the latter case the Lagrangian is highly symmetric, with the mass hierarchy being generated by electroweak symmetry breaking. Adding a third family uncoupled to the Higgs fields and thus keeping it massless we get a model which gives a rough approximation of some features of the fermions observed in Nature. We discuss a number of predictions of the model which may be checked in future experiments at the LHC.

description: The known Pfaffian structure of the boundary spin correlations, and more generally order-disorder correlation functions, is given a new explanation through simple topological considerations within the model's random current representation. This perspective is then employed in the proof that the Pfaffian structure of boundary correlations emerges asymptotically at criticality in Ising models on $\mathbb Z^2$ with finite-range interactions. The analysis is enabled by new results on the stochastic geometry of the corresponding random currents. The proven statement establishes an aspect of universality, seen here in the emergence of fermionic structures in two dimensions beyond the solvable cases.

description: We present a detailed study of isospin dynamics in peripheral collisions at Fermi energies. We consider symmetric and mixed collisions of (124,112)Sn isotopes at 35 and 50 AMeV to study the isospin transport between the different reaction components (residues, gas and possibly intermediate mass fragments) and, in particular, the charge equilibration in the mixed system. We evaluate the effects of drift terms due to asymmetry and density gradients, which are directly related to the poorly known value and slope of the symmetry energy below saturation density. We verify the importance of an isoscalar momentum dependence of the mean field, which is found to influence the isospin transport since it changes the reaction times. We finally suggest two observables particularly sensitive to the isovector part of the nuclear equation-of-state: the correlation between isospin equilibration and kinetic energy loss for binary events, and the isospin content of the produced mid-rapidity fragments for neck fragmentation events.

Las acciones revocatorias concursales : tensión entre los derechos de los acreedores y la seguridad jurídica

subject: Revocatoria
subject: Buena fe

description: Las acciones revocatorias concursales son un instrumento de protección del derecho de crédito en la medida que pretenden dejar sin efectos aquellos actos realizados por el deudor que causen un perjuicio a los acreedores bien porque ocasionen una reducción patrimonial o porque otorguen un privilegio a un acreedor en desmedro de los restantes. A través del presente trabajo, el lector podrá observar que el estudio y ejercicio de las acciones revocatorias concursales refleja dos puntos de tensión, a saber: i) el derecho del deudor a disponer libremente de sus bienes, derivado del principio de autonomía privada y la consecuente imposibilidad de quienes no son parte de una relación negocial de cuestionarla, y ii) el derecho de los acreedores para censurar aquellos actos del deudor que los afecten o que incidan en el cumplimiento de la prestación. De ahí que, el estudio del instituto revocatorio no puede limitarse al derecho de insolvencia como tradicionalmente se ha hecho pues exige ser abordado desde la disciplina del derecho civil, en una simbiosis que reconozca su finalidad y su condición de medio de protección de los derechos de los acreedores.
description: Claw-back actions are an instrument for the protection of credit rights as they seek to invalidate those acts performed by the debtor that cause a detriment to creditors either because they produce a reduction of assets or because they grant a privilege to a creditor over the remaining creditors. Throughout this paper, the reader will be able to observe that the study and exercise of claw-back actions shows two points of tension, which are: i) the right of the debtor to freely dispose of its assets, derived from the principle of private autonomy and the consequent impossibility of those who are not part of a business relationship to question it, and ii) the right of the creditors to censure those acts of the debtor that affect them or that have an impact on the satisfaction of the obligation. Therefore, the study of the revocation institute cannot be limited to insolvency law as it has traditionally been done and must be approached from the discipline of civil law through a symbiosis that recognizes its purpose and its condition to protect the rights of creditors.
Bottom-quark Forward-Backward Asymmetry, Dark Matter and the LHC

description: The LEP experiment at CERN provided accurate measurements of the $Z$ neutral gauge boson properties. Although all measurements agree well with the SM predictions, the forward backward asymmetry of the bottom-quark remains almost 3$σ$ away from the SM value. We proposed that this anomaly may be explained by the existence of a new $U(1)_D$ gauge boson, which couples with opposite charges to the right-handed components of the bottom and charm quarks. Cancellation of gauge anomalies demands the presence of a vector-like singlet charged lepton as well as a neutral Dirac (or Majorana) particle that provides a Dark Matter candidate. Constraints from precision measurements imply that the mass of the new gauge boson should be around $115$~GeV. We discuss the experimental constraints on this scenario, including the existence of a di-jet resonance excess at an invariant mass similar to the mass of this new gauge boson, observed in boosted topologies at the CMS experiment.

description: El presente trabajo expone los escenarios posibles y probables que pueden construirse, al año 2042, en el entorno de las amenazas a la sostenibilidad asociadas a la conflictividad minera en el Perú. Identificando previamente, las tendencias globales, locales y científica que inciden sobre este entorno; las variables estratégicas que componen el sistema de las amenazas a la sostenibilidad derivadas de la conflictividad social; así como los actores clave que componen e indicen sobre el sector minero en el Perú. De la mano de un grupo de expertos del sector, finalmente, se determina un escenario apuesta 2042 en el Perú, diseñando una hoja de ruta estratégica para la construcción de ese escenario apuesta. Este apunta a un futuro en el cual el sector minero del Perú alcanza una capacidad de gestión e institucionalidad adecuado, que previene los conflictos sociales asociados a la minería, y genera un sistema de desarrollo equitativo y vivible para los actores del sector minero y comunidades impactadas por la minería, otorgando la sostenibilidad a los proyectos mineros en el largo plazo.
description: The following investigation exposes the potential scenarios that could come into fruition, regarding the threats to the sustainability of mining projects in Perú, derived from social conflicts, towards the year 2042. These scenarios are identified by recognizing the global, local and scientific trends that can impact social conflicts and its threats to the sustainability of mining projects in Perú; the set of strategic variables that strongly impact the aforementioned system; and the most relevant actors that influence over the mining sector in the country. Finally, in a joint effort with a working group belonging to the mining sector in Perú, a preferable scenario is selected to construct the future of the mining sector towards 2042. This preferable scenario focuses on the development of institutional and management capabilities that can guarantee a comprehensive socioeconomic development of the mining sector and communities affected by its externalities, so that the mining projects are sustainable in the longer term.

description: It’s a truism in Sociology that nothing happens
in a vacuum: the actions of one group
affect another, the current age is informed by
what came before. But during the COVID-19
pandemic especially—when even billboards
and celebrities reminded us that we’re "all
in this together"—the idea that current
inequalities draw from generations of inequities
became even more salient.

description: Lowest weight representations of the ${\mathbb Z}_2 \otimes {\mathbb Z}_2$ graded superalgebra introduced by Rittenberg and Wyler are investigated. We give a explicit construction of Verma modules over the ${\mathbb Z}_2 \otimes {\mathbb Z}_2$ graded superalgebra and show their reducibility by using singular vectors. The explicit formula of singular vectors are given and are used to derive partial differential equations invariant under the color supergroup generated by the ${\mathbb Z}_2 \otimes {\mathbb Z}_2$ graded superalgebra.
