description: We examine the effect of the transverse breathing mode on the longitudinal sound propagation in a Bose-Einstein condensate in a one-dimensional optical lattice. In particular, we discuss how the coupling with the transverse breathing mode influences the sound velocity in an optical lattice. Using a variational approach we calculate the dispersion relations for the longitudinal sound mode and the transverse breathing mode analytically and find that the shift in the sound velocity from the uncoupled result can be large enough to be experimentally relevant. We also find that the effective mass of the transverse breathing mode is affected considerably by the coupling to longitudinal sound.

Evolutionary dynamics of cancer: from epigenetic regulation to cell population dynamics -- mathematical model framework, applications, and open problems
Creators: name: Lei, Jinzhi
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Cell Behavior (q-bio.CB)
subject: FOS: Biological sciences

description: Predictive modeling of the evolutionary dynamics of cancer is a challenge issue in computational cancer biology. In this paper, we propose a general mathematical model framework for the evolutionary dynamics of cancer with plasticity and heterogeneity in cancer cells. Cancer is a group of diseases involving abnormal cell growth, during which abnormal regulations in stem cell regeneration are essential for the dynamics of cancer development. In general, the dynamics of stem cell regeneration can be simplified as a $\mathrm{G_0}$ phase cell cycle model, which lead to a delay differentiation equation. When cell heterogeneity and plasticity are considered, we establish a differential-integral equation based on the random transition of epigenetic states of stem cells during cell division. The proposed model highlights cell heterogeneity and plasticity, and connects the heterogeneity with cell-to-cell variance in cellular behaviors, e.g. proliferation, apoptosis, and differentiation/senescence, and can be extended to include gene mutation-induced tumor development. Hybrid computations models are developed based on the mathematical model framework, and are applied to the process of inflammation-induced tumorigenesis and tumor relapse after CAR-T therapy. Finally, we give rise to several mathematical problems related to the proposed differential-integral equation. Answers to these problems are crucial for the understanding of the evolutionary dynamics of cancer.

description: Understanding how rotationally-supported discs transform into dispersion-dominated spheroids is central to our comprehension of galaxy evolution. Morphological transformation is largely merger-driven. While major mergers can efficiently create spheroids, recent work has highlighted the significant role of other processes, like minor mergers, in driving morphological change. Given their rich merger histories, spheroids typically exhibit large fractions of `ex-situ' stellar mass, i.e. mass that is accreted, via mergers, from external objects. This is particularly true for the most massive galaxies, whose stellar masses typically cannot be attained without a large number of mergers. Here, we explore an unusual population of extremely massive (M* > 10^11 MSun) spheroids, in the Horizon-AGN simulation, which exhibit anomalously low ex-situ mass fractions, indicating that they form without recourse to significant merging. These systems form in a single minor-merger event (with typical merger mass ratios of 0.11 - 0.33), with a specific orbital configuration, where the satellite orbit is virtually co-planar with the disc of the massive galaxy. The merger triggers a catastrophic change in morphology, over only a few hundred Myrs, coupled with strong in-situ star formation. While this channel produces a minority (~5 per cent) of such galaxies, our study demonstrates that the formation of at least some of the most massive spheroids need not involve major mergers -- or any significant merging at all -- contrary to what is classically believed.

Publisher: name: https://www.rohub.org

description: This dataset provides daily air quality analyses and forecasts for Europe.

CAMS produces specific daily air quality analyses and forecasts for the European domain at significantly higher spatial resolution (0.1 degrees, approx. 10km) than is available from the global analyses and forecasts. The production is based on an ensemble of nine air quality forecasting systems across Europe. A median ensemble is calculated from individual outputs, since ensemble products yield on average better performance than the individual model products. The spread between the nine models are used to provide an estimate of the forecast uncertainty. The analysis combines model data with observations provided by the European Environment Agency (EEA) into a complete and consistent dataset using various data assimilation techniques depending upon the air-quality forecasting system used. In parallel, air quality forecasts are produced once a day for the next four days. Both the analysis and the forecast are available at hourly time steps at seven height levels.

Note that only nitrogen monoxide, nitrogen dioxide, sulphur dioxide, ozone, PM2.5, PM10 and dust are regularly validated against in situ observations, and therefore forecasts of all other variables are unvalidated and should be considered experimental.

description: An amenable, analytical two-state description of the nonlinear population dynamics of a noisy bistable system driven by a rectangular subthreshold signal is put forward. Explicit expressions for the driven population dynamics, the correlation function (its coherent and incoherent part), the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) and the Stochastic Resonance (SR) gain are obtained. Within a suitably chosen range of parameter values this reduced description yields anomalous SR-gains exceeding unity and, simultaneously, gives rise to a non-monotonic behavior of the SNR vs. the noise strength. The analytical results agree well with those obtained from numerical solutions of the Langevin equation.

description: We present new measurements of the cosmic cold molecular gas evolution out to redshift 6 based on systematic mining of the ALMA public archive in the COSMOS deep field (A3COSMOS). Our A3COSMOS dataset contains ~700 galaxies (0.3 < z < 6) with high-confidence ALMA detections in the (sub-)millimeter continuum and multi-wavelength spectral energy distributions (SEDs). Multiple gas mass calibration methods are compared and biases in band conversions (from observed ALMA wavelength to rest-frame Rayleigh-Jeans(RJ)-tail continuum) have been tested. Combining our A3COSMOS sample with ~1,000 CO-observed galaxies at 0 < z < 4 (75% at z < 0.1), we parameterize galaxies' molecular gas depletion time and molecular gas to stellar mass ratio (gas fraction) each as a function of the stellar mass, offset from the star-forming main sequence (Delta MS) and cosmic age (or redshift). Our proposed functional form provides a statistically better fit to current data (than functional forms in the literature), and implies a "downsizing" effect (i.e., more-massive galaxies evolve earlier than less-massive ones) and "mass-quenching" (gas consumption slows down with cosmic time for massive galaxies but speeds up for low-mass ones). Adopting galaxy stellar mass functions and applying our function for gas mass calculation, we for the first time infer the cosmic cold molecular gas density evolution out to redshift 6 and find agreement with CO blind surveys as well as semi-analytic modeling. These together provide a coherent picture of cold molecular gas, SFR and stellar mass evolution in galaxies across cosmic time.

description: Modern advances in algorithms for lattice QCD calculations have steadily driven down the resources required to generate gauge field ensembles and calculate quark propagators, such that, in cases relevant to nuclear physics, performing quark contractions to assemble correlation functions from propagators has become the dominant cost. This work explores a propagator sparsening algorithm for forming correlation functions describing multi-hadron systems, such as light nuclei, with reduced computational cost. The algorithm constructs correlation functions from sparsened propagators defined on a coarsened lattice geometry, where the sparsened propagators are obtained from propagators computed on the full lattice. This algorithm is used to study the low-energy QCD ground-state spectrum using a single Wilson-clover lattice ensemble with $m_π \approx 800$ MeV. It is found that the extracted ground state masses and binding energies, as well as their statistical uncertainties, are consistent when determined from correlation functions constructed from sparsened and full propagators. In addition, while evidence of modified couplings to excited states is observed in sparsened correlation functions, it is demonstrated that these effects can be removed, if desired, with an inexpensive modification to the sparsened estimator.

description: Generalized parton distributions provide a unifying framework for the interpretation of exclusive reactions at high $Q^2$. The most promising reaction for the investigation of these distributions is the hard production of photons using Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering (DVCS). This reaction can be accessed experimentally by determining the production asymmetry using polarized electrons on a proton target. Pioneering experiments with CLAS and HERMES have produced the first measurements of this asymmetry. We will review the current experimental program to study DVCS at Jefferson Lab. Recent high statistics data taken with CLAS at 5.75 GeV allows us to determine this asymmetry at low -$t$ in the valence region ($x_{B}$=0.1-0.5) up to a $Q^2$ of 4 GeV$^2/c^2$.

description: Polarization measurements for the optical counterpart to GRB 021004 are presented and discussed. Our observations were performed with the TNG and the VLT-UT3 (Melipal) during the first and fourth night after the gamma-ray burst discovery. We find robust evidence of temporal evolution of the polarization, which is therefore, at least partially, intrinsic to the optical transient. We do not find convincing evidence of wavelength dependence for the intrinsic polarization of the transient, in agreement with current polarization models for optical afterglows. We discuss the role of dust, both in our galaxy and in the host, in modifying the transmitted polarization vector, showing how a sizable fraction of the observed polarized flux is due to Galactic selective extinction, while it is not possible to single out any clear contribution from dust in the host galaxy. We discuss how our data compare to those obtained by different groups showing that a two-component model is required to describe the complete dataset. This is not surprising given the complex lightcurve of GRB 021004.

description: The paper uses a bi-regional CGE model to assess the potential impacts of an alternative rural development policy design, which is more targeted to public sector investments on the economic activity of a lagging region of Latvia. The results show the distribution of effects between the rural and urban areas within the lagging region as well as differences in the impacts between the two policy scenarios that are explored. A specially constructed bi-regional SAM (Social Accounting Matrix), that refl ects the specifi c characteristics of Latgale region, was used to calibrate the bi-regional CGE model; and two policy scenarios are explored. The two scenarios, “Enhanced Financial Envelope” and “Investment in Public Sector” are defi ned in terms of allocation volume and reallocation of funding among RDP measures and area payments. This represents the most radical kind of reallocation that is possible within the CAP, between Pillar 1 and 2 and within the Axes and Measures of RDP; and it completely removes the sectoral aspect of the support. The fi rst scenario is based on current implementation plans but with enhanced funding for the lagging region of Latgale, and the second on the complete shift of these funds to public goods fi nancing. Results show that both scenarios generate positive effects in terms of macroeconomic indicators (GDP and employment levels) and sectoral effects (factor income and household income expenditure). However, the effects from the “Investment in Public Sector” are stronger showing that the allocation of funds towards the public sector, which has the stronger links in the regional economy, has the highest positive effects for both rural and urban parts of region Latgale. Also, both scenarios have the ability to increase more the economic activity of the rural area while positive effects are diffused towards the urban area.

description: In this paper, we use DEA-Tobit model to conduct empirical study on the governmental supply efficiency of public service in Chongqing's 38 counties and the influencing factors during the period 2008-2011. The results show that the supply efficiency of basic public service at county level is generally low, and there is significant regional differences and strong volatility; per capita GDP, population density and population size, and level of education of the residents, are significantly correlated with the supply efficiency of basic public service at county level, but traffic density, urbanization level, and the proportion of government spending on public service to total fiscal expenditure, have no significant effects on the efficiency of basic public service at county level. Based on this, we propose some policy recommendations for enhancing the level of local economic development and the level of education, and reasonably guiding the residents' agglomeration.

description: Within the standard model of hierarchical galaxy formation in a ΛCDM Universe, the environment of galaxies is expected to play a key role in driving galaxy formation and evolution. In this paper we investigate whether and how the gas metallicity and the star formation surface density (Σ_SFR) depend on galaxy environment. To this end we analyse a sample of 1162 local, star-forming galaxies from the galaxy survey Mapping Nearby Galaxies at APO (MaNGA). Generally, both parameters do not show any significant dependence on environment. However, in agreement with previous studies, we find that low-mass satellite galaxies are an exception to this rule. The gas metallicity in these objects increases while their ΣSFR decreases slightly with environmental density. The present analysis of MaNGA data allows us to extend this to spatially resolved properties. Our study reveals that the gas metallicity gradients of low-mass satellites flatten and their ΣSFR gradients steepen with increasing environmental density. By extensively exploring a chemical evolution model, we identify two scenarios that are able to explain this pattern: metal-enriched gas accretion or pristine gas inflow with varying accretion timescales. The latter scenario better matches the observed ΣSFR gradients, and is therefore our preferred solution. In this model, a shorter gas accretion timescale at larger radii is required. This suggests that 'outside-in quenching' governs the star formation processes of low-mass satellite galaxies in dense environments.

 Diagnosis. Body length 3.3–3.6 mm. Pale reddish-brown, sides of elytra paler than the disc, appendages testaceous. Pronotum and elytra without microsculpture. Elytra with only three visible striae: first impressed throughout its length; second impressed, reaching neither base nor apex; third faintly impressed between two setiferous punctures on third interval. Striae I and II faintly punctured in basal half.
 Comments on classification. BRUNEAU DE MIRÉ (1963) synonymized Tachyphanes sudanensis Schatzmayr & Koch 1934 with T. conspicuus Schaum 1863. SCIAKY & VIGNA TAGLIANTI (2003) treated Sphaerotachys Müller, 1926, Tachyphanes Jeannel, 1946 and Nototachys Alluaud, 1930, as a single genus Sphaerotachys, based on the constant position and structure of the eighth stria, although they are heterogeneous in other characteristics. Further study is needed and both Tachyphanes and Nototachys might become valid subgenera.
 Distribution. Sphaerotachys conspicuus is a species with a vast distribution in Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. First record from Socotra Island.

description: We investigate several fundamental properties of z ~ 4 Lyman-break galaxies by comparing observations with the predictions of a semi-analytic model based on the Cold Dark Matter theory of hierarchical structure formation. We use a sample of B_{435}-dropouts from the Great Observatories Origins Deep Survey, and complement the ACS optical B_{435}, V_{606}, i_{775}, and z_{850} data with the VLT ISAAC J, H, and K_{s} observations. We extract B_{435}-dropouts from our semi-analytic mock catalog using the same color criteria and magnitude limits that were applied to the observed sample. We find that the i_{775} - K_{s} colors of the model-derived and observed B_{435}-dropouts are in good agreement. However, we find that the i_{775}-z_{850} colors differ significantly, indicating perhaps that either too little dust or an incorrect extinction curve have been used. Motivated by the reasonably good agreement between the model and observed data we present predictions for the stellar masses, star formation rates, and ages for the z ~ 4 Lyman-break sample. We find that according to our model the color selection criteria used to select our z ~ 4 sample surveys 67% of all galaxies at this epoch down to z_{850} < 26.5. We find that our model predicts a roughly 40% mass build-up between the z \~ 4 and z ~ 3 epochs for the UV rest-frame L* galaxies. Furthermore, according to our model, at least 50% of the total stellar mass resides in relatively massive UV-faint objects that fall below our observational detection limit.

description: ABSTRACT:

Air quality and climate change pose significant challenges, with nitrogen dioxide (NO2) acknowledged as an air pollutant due to its adverse effects on respiratory health, contribution to particulate matter, ground-level ozone formation, environmental repercussions including acid rain, and indirect impact on climate change.  This presentation explores the development of NO2-detecting sensors utilising silicon nanowire transistors, emphasising dynamic alterations in sensor properties during NO2 exposure across a broad mixing ratio (250 ppb to 50 ppm).  Understanding the mechanisms by which the sensors detect NO2 has been facilitated through density functional theory (DFT) calculations.  Additionally, the sensors have been successfully used to detect NO2 alongside other gases such as ammonia, sulphur dioxide, and methane through multivariate calibration.

Keywords: Silicon nanowire sensors; NO2

A$^3$COSMOS: The Dust Attenuation of Star-Forming Galaxies at $z=2.5-4.0$ from the COSMOS-ALMA Archive

description: We present an analysis of the dust attenuation of star forming galaxies at $z=2.5-4.0$ through the relationship between the UV spectral slope ($β$), stellar mass ($M_{\ast}$) and the infrared excess (IRX$=L_{\rm{IR}}/L_{\rm{UV}}$) based on far-infrared continuum observations from the Atacama Large Millimeter/sub-millimeter Array (ALMA). Our study exploits the full ALMA archive over the COSMOS field processed by the A$^3$COSMOS team, which includes an unprecedented sample of $\sim1500$ galaxies at $z\sim3$ as primary or secondary targets in ALMA band 6 or 7 observations with a median continuum sensitivity of 126 $\rm{μJy/beam}$ (1$σ$). The detection rate is highly mass dependent, decreasing drastically below $\log (M_{\ast}/M_{\odot})=10.5$. The detected galaxies show that the IRX-$β$ relationship of massive ($\log M_{\ast}/M_{\odot} > 10$) main sequence galaxies at $z=2.5-4.0$ is consistent with that of local galaxies, while starbursts are generally offset by $\sim0.5\,{\rm dex}$ to larger IRX values. At the low mass end, we derive upper limits on the infrared luminosities through stacking of the ALMA data. The combined IRX-$M_{\ast}$ relation at $\rm{log\,(M_{\ast}/M_{\odot})>9}$ exhibits a significantly steeper slope than reported in previous studies at similar redshifts, implying little dust obscuration at $\log M_{\ast}/M_{\odot}<10$. However, our results are consistent with early measurements at $z\sim5.5$, indicating a potential redshift evolution between $z\sim2$ and $z\sim6$. Deeper observations targeting low mass galaxies will be required to confirm this finding.

description: It has to be stated from the beginning that grasslands in Kyrgyzstan have a crucial economic importance from the macroeconomic national level down to the level of local households as supplier of natural animal fodder, as well as crucial ecological meanings such as for water and nutrient cycling, filtration, and soil formation. In spite of the vast expanse of pasture lands and the reduction of livestock numbers in the 1990s, the scope and diversity of pasture-related socio-ecological challenges have increased remarkably, and have come to endanger the continued provision of these services (Wilson 1997:62–63; Undeland 2005: 22). Degradation leads to a growing shortage of grassland, and pasture-related conflicts jeopardize the country’s social integrity. Based on these facts, this presentation has two objectives. The first is to shed light on the importance of legal institutions for the emergence of pasture-related social and ecological problems. Second, it advocates for a participatory approach to the creation of institutional regulations regarding the management and utilization of natural resources. Including the local population in the pasture utilization-related institution-building process can make a decisive contribution to a sustainable development of the country’s society by balancing different interests. The hypothesis to be explored is that formal institutions, especially top-down-initiated legal rules, are decisively contributing to the formation of socio-ecological pasturerelated challenges.

description: The Schwabe cycle of solar activity exhibits modulations and frequency fluctuations on slow time scales of centuries and millennia. Plausible physical explanations for the cause of these long-term variations of the solar cycle are still elusive, with possible theories including stochasticity of alpha effect and fluctuations of the differential rotation. It has been suggested recently in the literature that there exists a possible relation between the spatio-temporal structure of Solar cycle and the nonlinear dynamics of magnetohydrodynamic Rossby waves at the solar tachocline, including both wave-wave and wave-mean flow interactions. Here we extend the nonlinear theory of MHD Rossby waves presented in a previous article to take into account long term modulation effects due to a recently discovered mechanism that allows significant energy transfers throughout different wave triads: the precession resonance mechanism. We have found a large number of Rossby-Haurwitz wave triads whose frequency mismatches are compatible with the solar cycle frequency. Consequently, by analyzing the reduced dynamics of two triads coupled by a single mode (five-wave system), we have demonstrated that in the amplitude regime in which precession resonance occurs, the energy transfer throughout the system yields significant long-term modulations on the main $\sim 11$yr period associated with intra-triad energy exchanges. We further show that such modulations display an inverse relationship between the characteristic wave amplitude and the period of intra-triad energy exchanges, which is consistent with the Waldmeier's law for the solar cycle. In the presence of a constant forcing and dissipation, the five-wave system in the precession resonance regime exhibits irregular amplitude fluctuations with some periods resembling the Grand Minimum states.
