description: We study Quillen model categories equipped with a monoidal skew closed structure that descends to a genuine monoidal closed structure on the homotopy category. Our examples are 2-categorical and include permutative categories and bicategories. Using the skew framework, we adapt Eilenberg and Kelly's theorem relating monoidal and closed structure to the homotopical setting. This is applied to the construction of monoidal bicategories arising from the pseudo-commutative 2-monads of Hyland and Power.

Direct lateral maneuvers in hawkmoths

description: ABSTRACTWe used videography to investigate direct lateral maneuvers, i.e. ‘sideslips’, of the hawkmoth Manduca sexta. M. sexta sideslip by rolling their entire body and wings to reorient their net force vector. During sideslip they increase net aerodynamic force by flapping with greater amplitude, (in both wing elevation and sweep), allowing them to continue to support body weight while rolled. To execute the roll maneuver we observed in sideslips, they use an asymmetric wing stroke; increasing the pitch of the roll-contralateral wing pair, while decreasing that of the roll-ipsilateral pair. They also increase the wing sweep amplitude of, and decrease the elevation amplitude of, the contralateral wing pair relative to the ipsilateral pair. The roll maneuver unfolds in a stairstep manner, with orientation changing more during downstroke than upstroke. This is due to smaller upstroke wing pitch angle asymmetries as well as increased upstroke flapping counter-torque from left-right differences in global reference frame wing velocity about the moth's roll axis. Rolls are also opposed by stabilizing aerodynamic moments from lateral motion, such that rightward roll velocity will be opposed by rightward motion. Computational modeling using blade-element approaches confirm the plausibility of a causal linkage between the previously mentioned wing kinematics and roll/sideslip. Model results also predict high degrees of axial and lateral damping. On the time scale of whole and half wing strokes, left-right wing pair asymmetries directly relate to the first, but not second, derivative of roll. Collectively, these results strongly support a roll-based sideslip with a high degree of roll damping in M. sexta.Summary: We show that hawkmoths fly sideways by rolling in the direction of movement, adding a left- or right-ward component to their net lift vector. The underlying roll maneuvers are produced from a suite of asymmetric wing kinematic changes and are heavily damped.

subject: Independent medical evaluation

description: Independent medical evaluation (IME) examiners are third- party clinicians that are paid by employers and insurers to provide an impartial assessment of impairment, and/or work ability for medico-legal purposes. One factor that may complicate the validity of IMEs is symptom exaggeration; however, the prevalence of exaggeration among primary studies ranges from 16% to 62% (1-3). This variability leaves uncertainty regarding the potential importance of formally assessing for symptom exaggeration during IMEs. Therefore, our aim is to conduct a systematic review of the literature to inform the prevalence of symptom exaggeration among IME examinees.

description: The ratio $R_p$ between the electric and magnetic proton form factors has been recently measured at JLab up to $Q^2=8.5 ~GeV^2$. We have extended the calculation of the nucleon form factors with the hypercentral Constituent Quark Model and compared them with the data on $R_p$ and on the $Q^2$ behavior of the ratio $Q^2 F_2/F_1$. In both cases the theoretical curves agree with the experimental points.

description: If the reheating temperature at the end of inflation is low, of order 10 MeV, then dark matter produced through ultraviolet freeze-in has a large direct detection cross section. We study such a scenario in which dark matter is hadrophilic. This leads to dark matter-nucleon scattering cross sections of interest for near-future experiments for dark matter masses in the range of 100 keV-100 MeV. We explore how these predictions vary if reheating is non-instantaneous.

description: We study the possibility that partonic matter produced at early stage of ultrarelativistic heavy-ion collisions is out of chemical equilibrium. It is assumed that initially this matter is mostly composed of gluons, but quarks and antiquarks are produced at later times. The dynamical evolution of partonic system is described by the Bjorken-like ideal hydrodynamics with a time dependent quark fugacity. The results of this model are compared with those obtained by assuming the complete chemical equilibrium of partons already at the initial stage. It is shown that in a chemically non-equilibrium scenario the entropy gradually increases, and about 25% of the total final entropy is generated during the hydrodynamic evolution of deconfined matter. We argue that the (anti)quark suppression included in this approach may be responsible for reduced (anti)baryon to meson ratios observed in heavy-ion collisions at LHC energies.

description: During development, cell proliferation and differentiation must be tightly coordinated to ensure proper tissue morphogenesis. Because steroid hormones are central regulators of developmental timing, understanding the links between steroid hormone signaling and cell proliferation is crucial to understanding the molecular basis of morphogenesis. Here we examined the mechanism by which the steroid hormone ecdysone regulates the cell cycle in Drosophila. We find that a cell cycle arrest induced by ecdysone in Drosophila cell culture is analogous to a G2 cell cycle arrest observed in the early pupa wing. We show that in the wing, ecdysone signaling at the larva-to-puparium transition induces Broad which in turn represses the cdc25c phosphatase String. The repression of String generates a temporary G2 arrest that synchronizes the cell cycle in the wing epithelium during early pupa wing elongation and flattening. As ecdysone levels decline after the larva-to-puparium pulse during early metamorphosis, Broad expression plummets, allowing String to become re-activated, which promotes rapid G2/M progression and a subsequent synchronized final cell cycle in the wing. In this manner, pulses of ecdysone can both synchronize the final cell cycle and promote the coordinated acquisition of terminal differentiation characteristics in the wing.

description: We study a (1+1)-dimensional quantum circuit consisting of Haar-random unitary gates and projective measurements that conserve a total $U(1)$ charge and thus have $U(1)$ symmetry. In addition to a measurement-induced entanglement transition between a volume-law and an area-law entangled phase, we find a phase transition between two phases characterized by bipartite charge fluctuation growing with the subsystem size or staying constant. At this charge-fluctuation transition, steady-state quantities obtained by evolving an initial state with a definitive total charge exhibit critical scaling behaviors akin to Tomonaga-Luttinger-liquid theory for equilibrium critical quantum systems with $U(1)$ symmetry, such as logarithmic scaling of bipartite charge fluctuation, power-law decay of charge correlation functions, and logarithmic scaling of charge-resolved entanglement whose coefficient becomes a universal quadratic function in a flux parameter. These critical features, however, do not persist below the transition in contrast to a recent prediction based on replica field theory and mapping to a classical statistical mechanical model.

description: Sometimes, researchers and developers need to simulate various types of networks with software that would otherwise be hard to do with real devices. For example, some hardware can be hard to get, expensive to set up, or beyond the skills of the team to implement. When the underlying hardware is not a concern but the essential functions that it does is, software can be a viable alternative. NS-3 is a mature, open-source networking simulation library with contributions from the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, Google Summer of Code, and others. It has a high degree of capability to simulate various kinds of networks and user-end devices, and its Python-to-C++ bindings make it accessible for many developers.

description: In the present work, flat FRW model of the universe is considered to be an isolated open thermodynamical system where non-equilibrium prescription has been studied using the mechanism of particle creation. In the perspective of recent observational evidences, the matter distribution in the universe is assumed to be dominated by dark matter and dark energy. The dark matter is chosen as dust while for dark energy, the following choices are considered: (i) Perfect fluid with constant equation of state and (ii) Holographic dark energy. In both the cases, the validity of generalized second law of thermodynamics (GSLT) which states that the total entropy of the fluid as well as that of the horizon should not decrease with the evolution of the universe, has been examined graphically for universe bounded by the event horizon. It is found that GSLT holds in both the cases with some restrictions on the interacting coupling parameter.

description: We have studied the quasinormal modes (QNMs) of a slowly rotating black hole with Lorentz-violating parameter in Einstein-bumblebee gravity. We analyse the slow rotation approximation of the rotating black hole in the Einstein-bumblebee gravity, and obtain the master equations for scalar perturbation, vector perturbation and axial gravitational perturbation, respectively. Using the matrix method and the continuous fraction method, we numerically calculate the QNM frequencies. In particular, for scalar field, it shows that the QNMs up to the second order of rotation parameter have higher accuracy. The numerical results show that, for both scalar and vector fields, the Lorentz-violating parameter has a significant effect on the imaginary part of the QNM frequencies, while having a relatively smaller impact on the real part of the QNM frequencies. But for axial gravitational perturbation, the effect of increasing the Lorentz-violating parameter $\ell$ is similar to that of increasing the rotation parameter $\tilde{a}$.

 Distribution and habitat: — Brazil (Bahia, Minas Gerais?). Campo rupestre; 900–1800 m.
 Taxonomic notes: —A striking species, easily recognized by its rosette-like habit and heterophyly. Very similar to Lychnophora grisea: see that species for a discussion of the differences. Some individuals of L. polhii show a similar habit but have a different number of florets per capitulum (1 vs. 3–4). Most collections (including the type material) consist only of secondary branches without the base of the plant, in which cases they look like L. rosmarinifolia, but L. uniflora differs from that species by the leaf shape (subulate to linear-lanceolate with rounded base vs. lanceolate with cordate to auriculate base) and by the number of florets per capitulum (1 vs. 1–5). The label on the holotype of L. uniflora indicates Minas Gerais, while all other known collections come from Bahia. The question remains whether that species has a wider distribution, or if it is truly endemic to Bahia, with the citation to Minas Gerais a matter of mistake on the type label. The same problem is found with another Martius collection (the type of Paralychnophora bicolor) (Loeuille et al. 2012d).

description: Determining the optimal arrangement of superconducting layers to withstand large amplitude AC magnetic fields is important for certain applications such as superconducting radiofrequency cavities. In this paper, we evaluate the shielding potential of the superconducting film/insulating film/superconductor (SIS') structure, a configuration that could provide benefits in screening large AC magnetic fields. After establishing that for high frequency magnetic fields, flux penetration must be avoided, the superheating field of the structure is calculated in the London limit both numerically and, for thin films, analytically. For intermediate film thicknesses and realistic material parameters we also solve numerically the Ginzburg-Landau equations. It is shown that a small enhancement of the superheating field is possible, on the order of a few percent, for the SIS' structure relative to a bulk superconductor of the film material, if the materials and thicknesses are chosen appropriately.

description: We impose U spin symmetry ($SU(2)_{\rm Uspin}$) on the Hamiltonian for $B$ decays. As expected, we find the equality of amplitudes related by the exchange $d \leftrightarrow s$. We also find that the amplitudes for the $ΔS=0$ processes $B^0 \to π^+π^-$, $B_s^0\toπ^+ K^-$ and $B^0\to K^+ K^-$ form a U-spin triangle relation. The amplitudes for $B_s^0\to K^+ K^-$, $B^0\toπ^- K^+$ and $B_s^0\toπ^+π^-$ form a similar $ΔS=1$ triangle relation. And these two triangles are related to one another by $d \leftrightarrow s$. We perform fits to the observables for these six decays. If perfect U spin is assumed, the fit is very poor. If U-spin-breaking contributions are added, we find many scenarios that can explain the data. However, in all cases, 100\% U-spin breaking is required, considerably larger than the naive expectation of $\sim 20\%$. This is the U-spin puzzle; it may be strongly hinting at the presence of new physics.

description: The poor solubility of paclitaxel (PTX), the commercially most successful anticancer drug, has long been hampering the development of suitable formulations. Here, we present translational evaluation of a nanoformulation of PTX, which is characterized by a facile preparation, extraordinary high drug loading of 50 % wt. and PTX solubility of up to 45 g/L, excellent shelf stability and controllable, sub-100 nm size. We observe favorable in vitro and in vivo safety profiles and a higher maximum tolerated dose compared to clinically approved formulations. Pharmacokinetic analysis reveals that the higher dose administered leads to a higher exposure of the tumor to PTX. As a result, we observed improved therapeutic outcome in orthotopic tumor models including particularly faithful and aggressive “T11” mouse claudin-low breast cancer orthotopic, syngeneic transplants. The promising preclinical data on the presented PTX nanoformulation showcase the need to investigate new excipients and is a robust basis to translate into clinical trials.

description: Transition metal halides can host a large variety of novel phenomena, such as magnetism in the monolayer limit, quantum spin liquid and spiral spin liquid states, and topological magnons and phonons. Sizeable high quality single crystals are necessary for investigations of magnetic and lattice excitations by, for example, inelastic neutron scattering. In this paper, we review a less well-known vapor transport technique, self-selecting vapor growth, and report our growths of transition metal halides using this technique. We report the growth and characterizations of sizable single crystals of RuCl$_3$, CrCl$_3$, Ru$_{1-x}$Cr$_x$Cl$_3$, and CrBr$_3$. In order to expedite the conversion of starting powder to single crystals, we modified the technique by cooling the growth ampoule through an appropriate temperature range. Our work shows that the self-selecting vapor transport technique can provide large single crystals of transition metal halides, demonstrating its potential for providing high quality single crystals of quantum materials.

description: To coherently control a few-level quantum emitter, typically pulses with an energy resonant to the transition energy are applied making use of the Rabi mechanism, while a single off-resonant pulse does not result in a population inversion. Surprisingly, a two-color excitation with a combination of two off-resonant pulses making use of the Swing-UP of quantum EmitteR population (SUPER) mechanism is able to invert the system. In this paper, we provide an in-depth analysis of the SUPER scheme within the dressed-state picture. We show that the SUPER mechanism can be understood as a driving of the transition between the dressed states. In the two-level system this allows us to derive analytic expressions for the pulse parameters yielding a population inversion. We extend our considerations to the three-level system, where a strong mixing between the bare states takes place. The insights gained from these results help in finding accessible regimes for further experimental realizations of the SUPER scheme and similar two-color excitation schemes.

description: Metformin (dimethylbiguanide) has been found to be effective for the treatment of a wide range of cancer. Herein, a novel lipid (1,2-di-(9Z-octadecenoyl)-3-biguanide-propane (DOBP)) was elaborately designed by utilizing biguanide as the cationic head group. This novel cationic lipid was intended to act as a gene carrier with intrinsic antitumor activity. When compared with 1,2-di-(9Z-octadecenoyl)-3-trimethylammonium-propane (DOTAP), a commercially available cationic lipid with a similar structure, the blank liposomes consisting of DOBP showed much more potent antitumor effects than DOTAP in human lung tumor xenografts, following an antitumor mechanism similar to metformin. Given its cationic head group, biguanide, DOBP could encapsulate TNF-related apoptosis-inducing ligand (TRAIL) plasmids into Lipid-Protamine-DNA (LPD) nanoparticles (NPs) for systemic gene delivery. DOBP-LPD-TRAIL NPs demonstrated distinct superiority in delaying tumor progression over DOTAP-LPD-TRAIL NPs, due to the intrinsic antitumor activity combined with TRAIL-induced apoptosis in the tumor. These results indicate that DOBP could be used as a versatile and promising cationic lipid for improving the therapeutic index of gene therapy in cancer treatment.

description: We present the results of the first in-beam studies of a medium size (10$\times$10 cm$^2$) Resistive-Plate WELL (RPWELL): a single-sided THGEM coupled to a pad anode through a resistive layer of high bulk resistivity ($\sim$10$^9 Ω$cm). The 6.2~mm thick (excluding readout electronics) single-stage detector was studied with 150~GeV muons and pions. Signals were recorded from 1$\times$1 cm$^2$ square copper pads with APV25-SRS readout electronics. The single-element detector was operated in Ne\(5% $\mathrm{CH_{4}}$) at a gas gain of a few times 10$^4$, reaching 99$\%$ detection efficiency at average pad multiplicity of $\sim$1.2. Operation at particle fluxes up to $\sim$10$^4$ Hz/cm$^2$ resulted in $\sim$23$\%$ gain drop leading to $\sim$5$\%$ efficiency loss. The striking feature was the discharge-free operation, also in intense pion beams. These results pave the way towards robust, efficient large-scale detectors for applications requiring economic solutions at moderate spatial and energy resolutions.

I am the meter. The representation of one’s body size affects the perception of tactile distances on the body

description: Humans must ground the perception of one’s body in a mental representation to move in space and interact with objects. This representation can be temporarily altered artificially. In the Full-Body Illusion (FBI), participants see a virtual (or filmed) body receiving a tactile stimulation. When participants receive touches on their body similarly to the seen one (i.e., homologous location and synchronous timing), they embody the seen alien body. While the subjective embodiment of alien bodies of different sizes has been already manipulated with the FBI, it remains unexplored whether the body-metric perception is impacted too. We first developed a new setup for the FBI using 360° videos to favour the embodiment. The FBI was induced for bodies of three sizes adopting anatomical and non-anatomical viewpoints, and we measured the subjective embodiment. The results suggest that humans can embody normal size or bigger bodies seen from anatomical viewpoints, but not smaller ones. We then investigated if the FBI modulates the body-metric representation. We found that the resized bodies' vision affects the perception of one’s body-metric representation, but this was independent of the embodiment, suggesting that the FBI alters the body representation at different levels with a specific impact.

description: Microfabrication technology offers the potential to create biological platforms with customizable patterns and surface chemistries, allowing precise control over the biochemical microenvironment to which a cell or group of cells is exposed. However, most microfabricated platforms grow cells on impermeable surfaces. This report describes the co-fabrication of a micropatterned epoxy photoresist film with a chitosan film to create a freestanding array of permeable, hydrogel-bottomed microwells. These films possess optical properties ideal for microscopy applications, and the chitosan layers are semi-permeable with a molecular exclusion of 9.9 ± 2.1 kDa. By seeding cells into the microwells, overlaying inert mineral oil, and supplying media via the bottom surface, this hybrid film permits cells to be physically isolated from one another but maintained in culture for at least 4 days. Arrays co-fabricated using these materials reduce both large-molecular-weight biochemical crosstalk between cells and mixing of different clonal populations, and will enable high-throughput studies of cellular heterogeneity with increased ability to customize dynamic interrogations compared to materials in currently available technologies.

description: Qualitative information about the quantized energy levels of a system can be of great value. We study the relationship between the bound-state energies of an anisotropic potential and those of its spherical average. It is shown that the two ground-state energies satisfy an inequality, and there is a similar inequality for the first excited states.
