description: In the last twenty years, the topic of episodic accretion has gained significant interest in the star formation community. It is now viewed as a common, though still poorly understood, phenomenon in low-mass star formation. The FU Orionis objects (FUors) are long-studied examples of this phenomenon. FUors are believed to undergo accretion outbursts during which the accretion rate rapidly increases from typically $10^{-7}$ to a few $10^{-4}$ $M_\odot$ yr$^{-1}$, and remains elevated over several decades or more. EXors, a loosely defined class of pre-main sequence stars, exhibit shorter and repetitive outbursts, associated with lower accretion rates. The relationship between the two classes, and their connection to the standard pre-main sequence evolutionary sequence, is an open question: do they represent two distinct classes, are they triggered by the same physical mechanism, and do they occur in the same evolutionary phases? Over the past couple of decades, many theoretical and numerical models have been developed to explain the origin of FUor and EXor outbursts. In parallel, such accretion bursts have been detected at an increasing rate, and as observing techniques improve each individual outburst is studied in increasing detail. We summarize key observations of pre-main sequence star outbursts, and review the latest thinking on outburst triggering mechanisms, the propagation of outbursts from star/disk to disk/jet systems, the relation between classical EXors and FUors, and newly discovered outbursting sources -- all of which shed new light on episodic accretion. We finally highlight some of the most promising directions for this field in the near- and long-term.

description: We discuss the supersymmetric standard model from the perspective that the up and down Higgs supermultiplets are composite states. We show that a Higgs multiplet in which the scalar states are bound states of two squarks and the corresponding Higgsinos are bound states of a quark and an squark has the correct supersymmetry transformations and may lead to an alternative model which displays dynamical symmetry breaking. We describe this model through an effective Higgs potential which by itself may lead to the correct mass of 125.9 GeV for the lightest Higgs boson and to other neutral scalar masses respecting the experimental constraints.

description: The NDI Carrara 1 sedimentology, microstructural analysis and sequence stratigraphy program was a joint undertaking between Geoscience Australia (GA) and CSIRO (Perth) as part of the Exploring for the Future program to examine the sedimentology, sequence stratigraphy and paleogeography of the Carrara Sub-basin. The program was based on recovered core from the National Drilling Initiative (NDI) deep stratigraphic drill hole, NDI Carrara 1. NDI Carrara 1 is the first drill hole to intersect the Proterozoic rocks of the Carrara Sub-Basin, a large depocentre discovered during seismic acquisition conducted during the first phase of the EFTF program in 2017. NDI Carrara 1 is located on the western flanks of the Carrara Sub-basin, reaching a total depth of 1751 m, intersecting ca. 630 m of Cambrian Georgina Basin overlying ca. 1100 m of Proterozoic carbonates, black shales and siliciclastics. This final report, and associated appendices, compiles the findings of three milestone deliverables. The first component of the report addresses the sedimentology of the Proterozoic section of NDI Carrara 1 with an accompanying Appendix (core log, from HyLogger data). The second component is a detailed microstructural analysis based on selected thin sections in intervals of interest. The final component completed a 1D sequence stratigraphic assessment, enabling regional stratigraphic correlations to be established and an interpretive paleogeographic map generated for the Proterozoic sequences of interest across the region .

description: We investigate a charge asymmetry in $t \bar t γ$ production at the LHC that provides complementary information to the measured asymmetries in $t \bar t$ production. We estimate the experimental uncertainty in its measurement at the LHC with 8 and 14 TeV. For new physics models that simultaneously reproduce the asymmetry excess in $t \bar t$ at the Tevatron and the SM-like asymmetry at the LHC, the measurement in $t \bar t γ$ at the LHC could exhibit significant deviations with respect to the SM prediction.

description: Treatment for atopic dermatitis (AD) is complex, particularly in patients with inadequate response to topical therapies. Currently, there is little clinical guidance for the treatment of these patients. A real-world retrospective study utilizing electronic medical records (EMR) and administrative claims data selected patients with AD between January 01 2016 and June 30 2018. Patients had a written prescription for a topical therapy (first observed script = index date) and no prior systemic treatment. Disease severity at index, follow-up treatment response and prescriptions patterns were assessed. A subset of patients linked to claims was evaluated for treatment patterns. We identified 137,214 adult topical-treated AD patients with no prior systemic therapy. Among the 16,035 patients with available Physician Global Assessment (PGA) at index, 8169 (50.9%) had the moderate-to-severe disease. Among these patients, 60% had an inadequate response to topical therapy. Of 4475 patients linked to claims, 13.0% had claims for systemic therapy during follow-up, most initiated systemic steroids (95.2%), and oral immunosuppressants and biologics were initiated in 3.3% and 3.8%, respectively. In this real-world study, inadequate response to topical therapy among moderate-to-severe AD patients was high and initiation of systemic treatment was low which suggests a need for additional AD-indicated systemic treatment options in this patient population.
A High-Resolution X-Ray and Optical Study of SN 1006: Asymmetric Expansion and Small-Scale Structure in a Type Ia Supernova Remnant

description: We introduce a deep (670 ks) X-ray survey of the SN1006 remnant from Chandra, plus a deep H-alpha image from the 4m telescope at CTIO. Comparison with Chandra images from 2003 gives the first measurement of X-ray proper motions around the entire rim. We find that the expansion velocity varies significantly with azimuth: the highest velocity of ~7400 km/s (almost 2.5 times that in the NW) is found along the SE rim, where both kinematics and spectra indicate that most of the X-rays stem from undecelerated ejecta. Asymmetries in the distribution of ejecta are seen on a variety of spatial scales. Si-rich ejecta are especially prominent in the SE quadrant, while O and Mg are more uniformly distributed, indicating large-scale asymmetries arising from the explosion itself. Ne emission is strongest in a sharp filament just behind the primary shock along the NW rim, where the preshock density is highest. Here the Ne is likely interstellar, while Ne within the shell may include a contribution from ejecta. Within the interior of the projected shell we find a few isolated "bullets" of what appear to be supernova ejecta that are immediately preceded by bowshocks seen in H-alpha--features we interpret as ejecta knots that have reached relatively dense regions of the surrounding ISM. Recent 3-dimensional hydrodynamic models for SN Ia display small-scale features that resemble the ones seen in X-rays in SN1006; an origin in the explosion itself or from subsequent instabilities both remain viable options. We have expanded the search for precursor X-ray emission ahead of a synchrotron-dominated shock front. Profiles along both NE and SW rims require that a precursor be thinner than about 3 arcsec and fainter than about 5% of the post-shock peak. These limits suggest that the magnetic field is amplified by a factor of 7 or more in a narrow precursor region, promoting diffusive particle acceleration.

description: Siderochrome activity has been detected in soil, dung, (Neilands, 1973) and various marine ecosystems (Estep, et al., 1975). Blue-green algae are considered an ancient life-form and are generally accepted as the mediative agent in the early evolution of the Earth's present day oxidizing atmosphere. As such, this group of organisms would have been among the first to encounter the problem of making ferric iron available for metabolism. The purpose of these studies was to examine iron-uptake mechanisms of microalgae and in particular to test the hypothesis that microalgae have a siderochrome mediated iron transport mechanism

The time-resolved analysis of the strain response, of the Fourier spectrum, and of Lissajous plots allows one to define two different timescales $τ_w

description: We reconsider the topological interpretation of magnetic helicity for magnetic fields in open domains, and relate this to the relative helicity. Specifically, our domains stretch between two parallel planes, and each of these ends may be magnetically open. It is demonstrated that, while the magnetic helicity is gauge-dependent, its value in any gauge may be physically interpreted as the average winding number among all pairs of field lines with respect to some orthonormal frame field. In fact, the choice of gauge is equivalent to the choice of reference field in the relative helicity, meaning that the magnetic helicity is no less physically meaningful. We prove that a particular gauge always measures the winding with respect to a fixed frame, and propose that this is normally the best choice. For periodic fields, this choice is equivalent to measuring relative helicity with respect to a potential reference field. But for aperiodic fields, we show that the potential field can be twisted. We prove by construction that there always exists a possible untwisted reference field.

description: A novel code construction based on spatially coupled low-density parity-check (SC-LDPC) codes is presented. The proposed code ensembles are described by protographs, comprised of several protograph-based chains characterizing individual SC-LDPC codes. We demonstrate that code ensembles obtained by connecting appropriately chosen SC-LDPC code chains at specific points have improved iterative decoding thresholds compared to those of single SC-LDPC coupled chains. In addition, it is shown that the improved decoding properties of the connected ensembles result in reduced decoding complexity required to achieve a specific bit error probability. The constructed ensembles are also asymptotically good, in the sense that the minimum distance grows linearly with the block length. Finally, we show that the improved asymptotic properties of the connected chain ensembles also translate into improved finite length performance.

To serve the purpose, we exploit the optical geometry of the black hole solution and find the Gaussian curvature in weak gravitational lensing. Furthermore, we discuss the deflection angle of the light ray in both plasma and non-plasma mediums using the Gauss-Bonnet theorem on the black hole. We also analyze the Regge--Wheeler equation and derive rigorous bounds on the greybody factors of linearly charged massive BTZ black hole. We also study the shadow or silhouette generated by charged massive BTZ black holes. The effects of charge and cosmological constant on the radius of the shadow are also discussed.

description: Aim: As most substance use prevention programs are offered at school, it is important to explore which group of students might be at increased risk. Both researchers and educators have often maintained that students with special educational needs due to emotional and behavioral disorders (SENs-EBD) are particularly vulnerable. Hence, the aim of the current systematic review was to examine the alcohol and cannabis use by students with SENs-EBD in comparison to students without SENs or other types of SENs. Methods: Adhering to the PRISMA guidelines, the review was registered on PROSPERO (CRD42023375799) and search terms were entered in Web of Science, Scopus, ERIC, and PubMed in December 2022. Publications were required to report on empirical quantitative studies (primary data) that assessed alcohol and/or cannabis use by adolescent students with SENs-EBD and a comparison group, and be published in English-language journal articles, conference papers, or book chapters from 2000 onwards. The QuADS tool was used for quality assessment. Results: Based on these criteria, six articles (sample sizes N = 61 to N = 122,180) were included for the thematic narrative synthesis. The studies revealed that the percentage of students with SENs-EBD consuming alcohol and cannabis was higher compared to students who did not have SENs or attended mainstream schools. Conclusion: The small number of heterogeneous studies, with limitations concerning the sample size, missing effect sizes, and influence of control variables, demonstrates the need for more research. The systematic review provides guidance for such future research endeavors, as well as preliminary notions for practical implications.

description: A study of [S III]$λ\lambda9096,9532$ emitters at $z$ = 1.34 and 1.23 is presented using our deep narrow-band $H_2S1$ (centered at 2.13 $μ$m) imaging survey of the Extended Chandra Deep Field South (ECDFS). We combine our data with multi-wavelength data of ECDFS to build up spectral energy distributions (SEDs) from the $U$ to the $K_{s}$-band for emitter candidates selected with strong excess in $H_2S1 - K_{s}$ and derive photometric redshifts, line luminosities, stellar masses and extinction. A sample of 14 [S III] emitters are identified with $H_2S1<22.8$ and $K_{\rm s}<24.8$ (AB) over 381 arcmin$^{2}$ area, having [S III] line luminosity $L_{[SIII]}= \sim 10^{41.5-42.6}$erg s$^{-1}$. None of the [S III] emitters is found to have X-ray counterpart in the deepest Chandra 4 Ms observation, suggesting that they are unlikely powered by AGN. HST/ACS F606W and HST/WFC3 F160W images show their rest-frame UV and optical morphologies. About half of the [S III] emitters are mergers and at least one third are disk-type galaxies. Nearly all [S III] emitters exhibit a prominent Balmer break in their SEDs, indicating the presence of a significant post-starburst component. Taken together, our results imply that both shock heating in post-starburst and photoionization caused by young massive stars are likely to excite strong [S III] emission lines. We conclude that the emitters in our sample are dominated by star-forming galaxies with stellar mass $8.7

Exact analysis of a Veselago lens in the quasi-static regime

Year: 2014
Subjects: subject: Optics (physics.optics)

description: The resolution of conventional optical lenses is limited by the wavelength. Materials with negative refractive index have been shown to enable the generation of an enhanced resolution image where both propagating and non-propagating waves are employed. We analyze such a Veselago lens by exploiting some exact one dimensional integral expressions for the quasi-static electric potential of a point charge in that system. Those were recently obtained by expanding that potential in the quasi-static eigenfunctions of a three-flat-slabs composite structure. Numerical evaluations of those integrals, using realistic values for physical parameters like the electric permittivities of the constituent slabs and their thickness, reveal some surprising effects: E.g., the maximum concentration of the electric field occurs not at the geometric optics foci but at the interfaces between the negative permittivity slab and the positive permittivity slabs. The analysis provides simple computational guides for designing such structures in order to achieve enhanced resolution of an optical image.

description: Kinetic inductance detectors (KIDs) show promise as a competitive technology for astronomical observations over a wide range of wavelengths. We are interested in comparing the fundamental limitations to the sensitivity of KIDs with that of transition edge sensors (TESs) at millimeter wavelengths, specifically over the wavelengths required for studies of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB). We calculate the total fundamental noise arising from optical and thermal excitations in TESs and KIDs for a variety of bath temperatures and optical loading scenarios for applications at millimeter wavelengths. Special consideration is given to the case of ground-based observations of 100 GHz radiation with a 100 mK bath temperature, conditions consistent with the planned second module of the QUBIC telescope, a CMB instrument. Under these conditions, a titanium nitride KID with optimized critical temperature pays a few percent noise penalty compared to a typical optimized TES.

description: This document is a letter from the California State Historic Preservation Office regarding the Gaseous Natural Gas Pipeline for Space Transportation System Power Plant Project. The SHPO provides several comments in this letter that are explicitly presented as 4 groups of documents. The first addresses the eligibility for sites CA-SBA-549 and -2146. The second addresses the Air Force's project determination of no adverse effect. The third relates to the survey, testing, and evaluation of sites for the power plant. Lastly, the fourth is related to the interim report that focuses on the testing and evaluation of thirteen archaeological sites on South Vandenberg Air Force Base. The letter then states that the latter two documents will not be further discussed in this letter because they have already been addressed previously. The remainder of the letter supports the determinations that CA-SBA-549 and -2146 are eligible for inclusion in the National Register. Next the letter addresses the project determination of no adverse effect. The letter reiterates that a redesign of the project avoided impacts to CA-SBA-219, -921, -1908, -2147, -2154 and the SHPO concurs that no evaluation of these resources is required. The letter concludes that the treatment plan for the project is adequate and the SHPO concurs with the project determination of no adverse effect to historic properties.

In this pilot cross-over randomized controlled trial, we aim to evaluate the effectiveness a HS-written action plan (HSWAP) on patient disease understanding and confidence in recognizing flares and adjusting management. Participants were randomized into a pre-crossover control group that received a verbal consultation (VC)-only, and an intervention group which received the VC + HSWAP. The pre-crossover control group then crossed over (post-crossover control) to also receive the VC + HSWAP (ClinicalTrials.gov Identifier: NCT04600375). Patient comprehension of their disease and management steps was high after both a thorough VC and HSWAPs. However, the majority of patients prefer receiving both a VC and a HSWAP. After the addition of the HSWAP, pre-crossover control group patients’ understanding and confidence of their disease and management plan increased across all surveyed questions.

description: Background: Vocal fold polyps (VFP) are a common cause of voice disorders and laryngeal discomfort. They are usually treated by behavioral voice therapy (VT) or phonosurgery, or a combination (CT) of both. However, the superiority of either of these treatments has not been clearly established. Methods: Three databases were searched from inception to October 2022 and a manual search was performed. All clinical trials of VFP treatment were included that reported at least auditory–perceptual judgment, aerodynamics, acoustics, and the patient-perceived handicap. Results: We identified 31 eligible studies (VT: n = 47–194; phonosurgery: n = 404–1039; CT: n = 237–350). All treatment approaches were highly effective, with large effect sizes (d > 0.8) and significant improvements in almost all voice parameters (p-values < 0.05). Phonosurgery reduced roughness and NHR, and the emotional and functional subscales of the VHI-30 were the most compared to behavioral voice therapy and combined treatment (p-values < 0.001). Combined treatment improved hoarseness, jitter, shimmer, MPT, and the physical subscale of the VHI-30 more than phonosurgery and behavioral voice therapy (p-values < 0.001). Conclusions: All three treatment approaches were effective in eliminating vocal fold polyps or their negative sequelae, with phonosurgery and combined treatment providing the greatest improvement. These results may inform future treatment decisions for patients with vocal fold polyps.

description: This paper describes a novel system for automatic classification of images obtained from Anti-Nuclear Antibody (ANA) pathology tests on Human Epithelial type 2 (HEp-2) cells using the Indirect Immunofluorescence (IIF) protocol. The IIF protocol on HEp-2 cells has been the hallmark method to identify the presence of ANAs, due to its high sensitivity and the large range of antigens that can be detected. However, it suffers from numerous shortcomings, such as being subjective as well as time and labour intensive. Computer Aided Diagnostic (CAD) systems have been developed to address these problems, which automatically classify a HEp-2 cell image into one of its known patterns (eg. speckled, homogeneous). Most of the existing CAD systems use handpicked features to represent a HEp-2 cell image, which may only work in limited scenarios. We propose a novel automatic cell image classification method termed Cell Pyramid Matching (CPM), which is comprised of regional histograms of visual words coupled with the Multiple Kernel Learning framework. We present a study of several variations of generating histograms and show the efficacy of the system on two publicly available datasets: the ICPR HEp-2 cell classification contest dataset and the SNPHEp-2 dataset.

description: Evaluate relationships between changes in dermatologic assessments and quality of life (QoL) measures; quantify dermatologic symptom severity impacts on QoL in patients with psoriatic arthritis (PsA) treated with tofacitinib. Data were from two phase III studies; patients received tofacitinib 5 or 10 mg twice daily (BID), adalimumab 40 mg every other week, or placebo advancing to tofacitinib 5 or 10 mg BID at Month 3. Repeated measures longitudinal models assessed relationships between dermatologic assessments (predictors) Itch Severity Item (ISI), Physician’s Global Assessment of Psoriasis (PGA-PsO), and Patient’s Global Joint and Skin Assessment-Visual Analog Scale-Psoriasis question (PGJS-VAS-PsO), and QoL measures (outcomes) Dermatology Life Quality Index (DLQI) and Short Form-36 Health Survey Version 2 (SF-36v2). Models included one predictor and one outcome. Direct, approximately linear relationships existed between predictors and outcomes. ISI/PGA-PsO/PGJS-VAS-PsO improvements from baseline of ≥3/≥2/≥40-mm VAS corresponded with clinically meaningful DLQI improvements; improvements from baseline of ≥4/≥3/≥40-mm VAS generally corresponded with clinically meaningful improvements across component scores and all SF-36v2 domains. Substantial links exist between dermatologic symptoms and QoL in patients with PsA, potentially informing patient-centered care and research. Rheumatologists should be aware of dermatologic manifestations and QoL impacts in patients with PsA. NCT01877668; NCT01882439

For the damped Kepler problem this result may be understood in terms of the generalization of Poisson structure to damped systems suggested recently by Tarasov[1]. In this generalized algebraic structure the orbit-averaged Runge-Lenz vector remains a constant in the linearly damped Kepler problem to leading order in the damping coe

description: The bursting of bubbles at an air/liquid interface is a familiar occurrence important to foam stability, cell cultures in bioreactors and mass transfer between the sea and atmosphere. Here we document the hitherto unreported formation and dispersal into the water column of submicrometre oil droplets following bubble bursting at a compound air/oil/water-with-surfactant interface. We show that dispersal results from the detachment of an oil spray from the bottom of the bubble towards water during bubble collapse. We provide evidence that droplet size is selected by physicochemical interactions between oil molecules and the surfactants rather than by hydrodynamic effects. We illustrate the unrecognized role that this dispersal mechanism may play in the fate of the sea surface micro-layer and of pollutant spills by dispersing petroleum in the water column. Finally, our system provides an energy-efficient route, with potential upscalability and wide applicability, for applications in drug delivery, food production and material science, which we demonstrate by producing polymeric nanoparticles.

description: The galaxy NGC 4418 contains one of the most compact obscured nuclei within a luminous infrared galaxy (LIRG) in the nearby Universe. This nucleus contains a rich molecular gas environment and an unusually high ratio of infrared to radio luminosity (q-factor). The compact nucleus is powered by either a compact starburst or an active galactic nucleus (AGN). The aim of this study is to constrain the nature of the nuclear region (starburst or AGN) within NGC 4418 via very-high-resolution radio imaging. Archival data from radio observations using the EVN and MERLIN interferometers are imaged. Sizes and flux densities are obtained by fitting Gaussian intensity distributions to the image. The average spectral index of the compact radio emission is estimated from measurements at 1.4 GHz and 5.0 GHz. The nuclear structure of NGC 4418 visible with EVN and MERLIN consists of eight compact (<49 mas i.e. <8 pc) features spread within a region of 250 mas, i.e. 41 pc. We derive an inverted spectral index $α\ge0.7$ ($S_ν\proptoν^α$) for the compact radio emission. Brightness temperatures $>10^{4.8}$ K indicate that these compact features cannot be HII-regions. The complex morphology and inverted spectrum of the eight detected compact features is evidence against the hypothesis that an AGN alone is powering the nucleus of NGC 4418. The compact features could be super star clusters (SSCs) with intense star formation, and their associated free-free absorption could then naturally explain both their inverted radio spectrum and the low radio to IR ratio of the nucleus. The required star formation area density is extreme, however, and close to the limit of what can be observed in a well-mixed thermal/non-thermal plasma produced by star-formation, and is also close to the limit of what can be physically sustained.

description: The influence of lateral vibrations on the stick-slip motion of a nanotip elastically pulled on a flat crystal surface is studied by atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements on a NaCl(001) surface in ultra-high vacuum. The slippage of the nanotip across the crystal lattice is anticipated at increasing driving amplitude, similarly to what is observed in presence of normal vibrations. This lowers the average friction force, as explained by the Prandtl-Tomlinson model with lateral vibrations superimposed at finite temperature. Nevertheless, the peak values of the lateral force, and the total energy losses, are expected to increase with the excitation amplitude, which may limit the practical relevance of this effect.

description: This document is a letter from the California State Historic Preservation Office (SHPO) and provides concurrence National Register eligibility for 14 archaeological sites: CA-SBA-534, -539, -680, -932, -1129, -1128, -931, -1145, -1109, -682, -670, -654, -551, and -678. The letter specifically concurs with Dr. Glassow's evaluation of these sites individually. However, SHPO also states that the density and distribution of the sites precludes treating these sites as individual entities. SHPO feels that the sites should be considered and treated as a district and nominated to the NRHP as such.
