description: The structure of sulfathiazole-4-nitrobenzoic acid (STZBA) was characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD). The crystal was stabilized by C–H…O, N–H…O, and S–O…S intermolecular interaction along with C–H…π and π…π interactions. The experimental FT-IR, FT-Raman, and UV-Vis spectra of STZBA were recorded and the results were compared with quantum chemical computation using the DFT method. Molecular electron density, topology, and natural bond orbital (NBO) analysis were used to explain the strength of the interaction. The molecular electrostatic potential and Fukui function of STZBA was determined to give a visual representation of charge distribution and provide information about the electrophilic and nucleophilic site of the molecule. Hirshfeld surface analysis was carried out to analyze the stability of the crystal structure. The antimicrobial activity of STZBA was determined against anticancer, bacterial strain E. coli and fungal stain Candida albicans and Sars-cov. Molecular docking analysis was performed with antimicrobial proteins to confirm the bioactivity of the molecule and drug likeness factors were calculated to comprehend the biological assets of STZBA. The molecular dynamic (MD) simulation result explains the protein stability, ligand properties, and protein-ligand interactions. The compounds were assessed for their structural, physic-chemical, pharmacokinetic, and toxicological properties.

description: Music sampling is a common practice among hip-hop and electronic producers that has played a critical role in the development of particular subgenres. Artists preferentially sample drum breaks, and previous studies have suggested that these may be culturally transmitted. With the advent of digital sampling technologies and social media the modes of cultural transmission may have shifted, and music communities may have become decoupled from geography. The aim of the current study was to determine whether drum breaks are culturally transmitted through musical collaboration networks, and to identify the factors driving the evolution of these networks. Using network-based diffusion analysis we found strong evidence for the cultural transmission of drum breaks via collaboration between artists, and identified several demographic variables that bias transmission. Additionally, using network evolution methods we found evidence that the structure of the collaboration network is no longer biased by geographic proximity after the year 2000, and that gender disparity has relaxed over the same period. Despite the delocalization of communities by the internet, collaboration remains a key transmission mode of music sampling traditions. The results of this study provide valuable insight into how demographic biases shape cultural transmission in complex networks, and how the evolution of these networks has shifted in the digital age.

description: We investigate the consequences of fluid flowing on a continuous surface upon the geometric and statistical distribution of the flow. We find that the ability of a surface to collect water by its mere geometrical shape is proportional to the curvature of the contour line divided by the local slope. Consequently, rivers tend to lie in locations of high curvature and flat slopes. Gaussian surfaces are introduced as a model of random topography. For Gaussian surfaces the relation between convergence and slope is obtained analytically. The convergence of flow lines correlates positively with drainage area, so that lower slopes are associated with larger basins. As a consequence, we explain the observed relation between the local slope of a landscape and the area of the drainage basin geometrically. To some extent, the slope-area relation comes about not because of fluvial erosion of the landscape, but because of the way rivers choose their path. Our results are supported by numerically generated surfaces as well as by real landscapes.

description: Microvascular barrier dysfunction is the central pathophysiological feature of acute lung injury (ALI). RAB26 is a newly identified small GTPase involved in the regulation of endothelial cell (EC) permeability. However, the mechanism behind this protection has not been clearly elucidated. Here we found that RAB26 promoted the integrity of adherens junctions (AJs) in a macroautophagy/autophagy-dependent manner in ALI. RAB26 is frequently downregulated in mouse lungs after LPS treatment. Mice lacking Rab26 exhibited phosphorylated SRC expression and increased CDH5/VE-cadherin phosphorylation, leading to AJ destruction. rab26-null mice showed further aggravation of the effects of endotoxin insult on lung vascular permeability and water content. Depletion of RAB26 resulted in upregulation of phosphorylated SRC, enhancement of CDH5 phosphorylation, and aggravation of CDH5 internalization, thereby weakening AJ integrity and endothelial barrier function in human pulmonary microvascular endothelial cells (HPMECs). RAB26 overexpression caused active interaction between SRC and the autophagy marker LC3-II and promoted degradation of phosphorylated SRC. Furthermore, RAB26 was involved in a direct and activation-dependent manner in autophagy induction through interaction with ATG16L1 in its GTP-bound form. These findings demonstrate that RAB26 exerts a protective effect on endothelial cell (EC) permeability, which is in part dependent on autophagic targeting of active SRC, and the resultant CDH5 dephosphorylation maintains AJ stabilization. Thus, RAB26-mediated autophagic targeting of phosphorylated SRC can maintain barrier integrity when flux through the RAB26-SRC pathway is protected. These findings suggest that activation of RAB26-SRC signaling provides a new therapeutic opportunity to prevent vascular leakage in ALI.

description: We study a confined mixture of bosons and fermions in the regime of quantal degeneracy, with particular attention to the effects of the interactions on the kinetic energy of the fermionic component. We are able to explore a wide region of system parameters by identifying two scaling variables which completely determine its state at low temperature. These are the ratio of the boson-fermion and boson-boson interaction strengths and the ratio of the radii of the two clouds. We find that the effect of the interactions can be sizeable for reasonable choices of the parameters and that its experimental study can be used to infer the sign of the boson-fermion scattering length. The interplay between interactions and thermal effects in the fermionic kinetic energy is also discussed.

description: To accelerate development of innovative materials, their modelings and predictions with useful functionalities are of vital importance. Here, based on a recently developed crystal structure prediction method, we find a new family of stable two-dimensional crystals with an open-channel tetrahedral bonding network, rendering a potential for electronic and energy applications. The proposed structural prototype with a space group of Cmme hosts at least thirteen different freestanding T$_{3}$X compounds with group IV (T=C, Si, Ge, Sn) and VI (X=O, S, Se, Te) elements. Moreover, the proposed materials display diverse electronic properties ranging from direct band gap semiconductor to topological insulator at their pristine forms, which are further tunable by mechanical strain.

Cumulant approach to weakly doped antiferromagnets

description: We present a new approach to static and dynamical properties of holes and spins in weakly doped antiferromagnets in two dimensions. The calculations are based on a recently introduced cumulant approach to ground--state properties of correlated electronic systems. The present method allows to evaluate hole and spin--wave dispersion relations by considering hole or spin excitations of the ground state. Usually, these dispersions are found from time--dependent correlation functions. To demonstrate the ability of the approach we first derive the dispersion relation for the lowest single hole excitation at half--filling. However, the main purpose of this paper is to focus on the mutual influence of mobile holes and spin waves in the weakly doped system. It is shown that low-energy spin excitations strongly admix to the ground--state. The coupling of spin waves and holes leads to a strong suppression of the staggered magnetization which can not be explained by a simple rigid--band picture for the hole quasiparticles. Also the experimentally observed doping dependence of the spin--wave excitation energies can be understood within our formalism.

In some cases, the cost of such quantum random-access memory (qRAM) is the limiting factor in the implementation of the algorithm. In this paper we study the cost of fault-tolerantly implementing a qRAM. We construct and analyze generic families of circuits that function as a qRAM, discuss opportunities for qubit-time tradeoffs, and estimate their resource costs when embedded in a surface code.

description: Pyrazolones derivatives are known for their pharmaceutical and therapeutic activities. In this regard, some new pyrazolone derivatives have been synthesized using cyclocondensation, nucleophilic substitution, and alkylation reactions. Their corresponding structures were elucidated using X-ray diffraction and NMR spectroscopic techniques. The experimental spectral data were compared with the predicted ones obtained at the B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. Geometrical parameters and chemical shifts are relatively well reproduced with correlation coefficients higher than 90%. The intercontacts in crystal units were investigated by the analysis of their corresponding Hirshfeld surfaces and fingerprint maps, which reveal that the major contacts are found for H…H intercontacts. Finally, the inhibition efficiency of the novel pyrazolone derivatives as SARS-CoV-2 Mpro is estimated by determining their binding affinities into the binding site of SARS-CoV-2 Mpro. The docking results reveal that the current pyrazolone derivatives may act as potent inhibitors of SARS-CoV-2 Mpro and that their inhibition efficiency may be strongly influenced by the substituted functional groups of pyrazolone moiety.

description: Implementation of the quantum interferometry concept to spin-1 atomic Bose-Einstein condensates is analyzed by employing a polar state evolved in time. In order to identify the best interferometric configurations, the quantum Fisher information is maximized. Three optimal configurations are identified, among which one was not reported in the literature yet, although it gives the highest value of the quantum Fisher information in experimentally achievable short time dynamics. Details of the most optimal configurations are investigated based on the error-propagation formula which includes the interaction-based readout protocol to reduce the destructive effect of detection noise. In order to obtain Heisenberg scaling accessible by present day experimental techniques, an efficient measurement and a method for the inversion of dynamics were developed, as necessary for the protocol's implementation.

description: Pure Topological Insulating materials preserve a unique electronic state comprising of bulk insulating gap and conducting surface states. Here we use bulk Bi2Se3 single crystals possessing Se vacancy defects as a prototype topological insulator (TI) material for exploring the effect of non-magnetic disorder on the conducting properties of TIs. We employ a sensitive, non-contact, mutual inductance based technique for measuring the surface and bulk contribution to electrical conductivity in the TI. We discern the different contributions, by observing that predominant surface electrical conduction produces linear frequency dependence of the pickup signal while bulk conductivity gives rise to quadratic frequency dependence. We also see an algebraic temperature dependent surface conductivity while an activated bulk conductivity. Using the above we uncover an interplay between surface and bulk contribution to electrical conductivity in the TI as a function of temperatures. In the Bi2Se3 crystals the transformation from surface to bulk dominated electrical transport is found to occur close to 70 K. This temperature range matches well with our results from activated bulk electrical transport results which shows an activation energy scale, delta which is in the millieV range. The gap delta is much less than the bulk band gap in Bi2Se3, and which we argue is associated with defect states in the TI material. To understand our results, we propose a model of a TI comprising of an inhomogeneous low electrically conducting medium (bulk) which is sandwiched between thin two high electrically conducting sheets (surface). The inhomogeneous TI state we argue is generated by Selenium vacancies defects in Bi2Se3, which is responsible for producing an interplay between bulk and surface conductivity.

description: The $f_{1}(1420)$ productions via pion and kaon induced reactions on a proton target are investigated in an effective Lagrangian approach. Two treatments of the $t$-channel Born term, the Feynman model and the Regge model, are introduced to calculate the total and differential cross sections of the $π^{-}p\rightarrow f_{1}(1420)n$ and $K^{-}p\rightarrow f_{1}(1420)Λ$ reactions. The numerical results indicate that the experimental data of the total cross section of the $π^{-}p\rightarrow f_{1}(1420)n$ reaction can be reproduced in both the Feynman and the Regge models. Based on the parameters determined in the pion induced reaction, the cross sections of the $K^{-}p\rightarrow f_{1}(1420)Λ$ reaction, about which there is little data found in the literature, are predicted in the same beam momentum range. It is found that the line shapes of the total cross section obtained in a kaon induced reaction with two treatments are quite different. The cross sections for both reactions are at an order of magnitude of $μ$b, or larger, at a beam momenta up to 10 GeV/c. The differential cross sections for both pion and kaon induced reactions are also present. It is found that in the Regge model, the $t$ channel provides a sharp increase at extreme forward angles. The results suggest that the experimental study of the $f_1(1420)$ in the kaon induced reaction on a proton target is as promising as in the pion induced reaction. Such an experimental measurement is also very helpful to clarify the production mechanism of the $f_1(1420)$.

description: We investigate the QCD chiral phase transition at finite chemical potential $μ$, using the renormalization group (RG) to characterize the infrared behavior of sigma models constrained by the flavor and spacetime symmetries. The results are similar to those obtained from RG analysis of the finite temperature transition at zero baryon density. When there are more than two massless flavors of quarks, a first order transition is predicted for the entire phase boundary. In the two flavor case, a boundary with first and second order regions separated by a tricritical point seems most likely. We discuss the real-world case with two light quarks and an intermediate mass strange quark. Improved lattice data on the temperature transition will strongly constrain the possibilities for the phase boundary.

description: Two-dimensional (2D) perovskite semiconductors are an emerging family of hybrid materials featuring a built-in quantum well architecture which has gained much interest due to its potential as a promising candidate for next-generation photovoltaic and optoelectronic applications. To successfully integrate 2D perovskites as efficient devices, it is imperative that a thorough understanding of the fundamental properties these materials possess and how their complex heterostructures behave is established. However, to date, the synthetic challenges regarding high-quality crystals of these materials due to the structural complexity and the hybrid nature have impeded further progress in this area. Thus, we demonstrate a general method to construct tunable 2D organic semiconductor-incorporated perovskites (OSiP) by simultaneously manipulating slab thickness of the inorganic layers and conjugation length of the organic substituents. The energy band offsets and exciton dynamics at the organic-inorganic interfaces were elucidated using computational means and ultrafast spectroscopy, while lattice dynamics were quantified via temperature-dependent spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction studies. Results show that longer and more planar π-conjugated organic ligands induce a more rigid inorganic crystal lattice, which leads to suppressed exciton-phonon interactions and superior optoelectronic properties such as efficient lasing.Furthermore, understanding ion migration in two-dimensional (2D) perovskite materials is key to enhancing device performance and stability as well. However, prior studies have been primarily limited to heat and light-induced ion migration. To investigate electrically induced ion migration in 2D perovskites, we construct a high-quality single crystal 2D perovskite heterostructure device platform with near defect-free van der Waals contact. While achieving real-time visualization of directional ion migration, we also uncover the unique behavior of halide anions inter-diffusing towards the opposite direction under prolonged bias. Confocal microscopy imaging reveals a halide migration channel that aligns with the crystal and heterojunction edges. After sustained ion migration, stable junction diodes exhibiting up to ~1000-fold forward to reverse current ratio are realized. Unraveling the fundamental properties of 2D OSiPs as well as ion migration in 2D perovskite heterostructures paves the way towards stable and efficient devices.

description: This paper reports on the development of a formal symbolic process virtual machine (FSPVM) denoted as FSPVM-E for verifying the reliability and security of Ethereum-based services at the source code level of smart contracts, and a Coq proof assistant is employed for both programming the system and for proving its correctness. The current version of FSPVM-E adopts execution-verification isomorphism, which is an application extension of Curry-Howard isomorphism, as its fundamental theoretical framework to combine symbolic execution and higher-order logic theorem proving. The four primary components of FSPVM-E include a general, extensible, and reusable formal memory framework, an extensible and universal formal intermediate programming language denoted as Lolisa, which is a large subset of the Solidity programming language using generalized algebraic datatypes, the corresponding formally verified interpreter of Lolisa, denoted as FEther, and assistant tools and libraries. The self-correctness of all components is certified in Coq. Currently, FSPVM-E supports the ERC20 token standard, and can automatically and symbolically execute Ethereum-based smart contracts, scan their standard vulnerabilities, and verify their reliability and security properties with Hoare-style logic in Coq. To the best of authors' knowledge, the present work represents the first hybrid formal verification system implemented in Coq for Ethereum smart contracts that is applied at the Solidity source code level.

The inter- and intra-layer interactions, the renormalization of the bilayer splitting and the formation of shadow bands are investigated in detail. Although the shadow states are not visible in the monolayer, we find that the additional correlations in bilayers boost the shadow state intensity and will lead to their observability. In the superconducting state we find a $d_{x^2-y^2}$ symmetry of the order parameter and demonstrate the importance of inter-plane Copper pairing.

description: Developing highly effective nonlinear optical (NLO) materials is a cutting-edge field of study. The desirability of promising NLO materials for optoelectronic and electronic applications drove us to investigate the sulflower (C18S9) doped complexes for developing highly efficient NLO materials. A successful computational design technique for superhalogens (BeF3, MgF3, CaF3, CaCl3) doping is employed on sulflower, and eight stable isomers (BeF3@SF-5M, BeF3@SF-9M, MgF3@SF-5M, MgF3@SF-9M, CaF3@SF-5M, CaF3@SF-9M, CaCl3@ SF-5M, CaCl3@SF-9M) are proposed for NLO properties. DFT and TD-DFT simulations confirm the potential use of superhalogen-doped sulflower complexes for NLO response applications by evaluating NLO response properties, photophysical aspects, frontier molecular orbital (FMO), natural bond orbitals (NBO), non-covalent interaction (NCI), vertical ionization energies (VIE), interaction energies (Eint), molecular electrostatic potential (MEP) and density of state (DOS) analysis. The Eint (−28.37 to −53.86 kcal/mol) and VIE (7.0-7.4 eV) findings suggest that superhalogens-doped sulflower complexes are thermodynamically stable and show durable interaction among sulflower and doped superhalogens. Superhalogens doping on sulflower effectively shorten the energy gap from 4.46 eV (pure sulflower) to 4.17 eV in CaCl3@SF-5M isomer. Superhalogens doping causes a change in the dipole moment from 0 D of pure sulflower to 12.57 D in the CaCl3@SF-5M isomer. Proficient intermolecular charge transfers between sulflower and doped superhalogens were established by NCI and NBO analyses. UV-Vis investigation revealed that all superhalogen-doped sulflower complexes are adequately transparent in the near-infrared and visible wavelength ranges. Augmentation in polarizability value from 333.86 a.u.−569.98 a.u and in first hyperpolarizability from 0.00 a.u to 6.6 × 104 a.u. is achieved upon superhalogens doping. A striking NLO response (β0 = 6.6 × 104 a.u) is exhibited by CaCl3@SF-5M isomer. This report provides an efficient superhalogens doping technique for creating highly effective future NLO systems and recommends superhalogens-doped sulflower complexes as ideal entrants for future NLO applications.

description: Using words to refer to objects in the environment is a core feature of the human language faculty. Referential understanding assumes the formation of mental representations of these words. Such understanding of object words has not yet been demonstrated as a general capacity in any non-human species, despite multiple behavior-based case reports. In human event-related potential (ERP) studies, object word knowledge is typically tested using the semantic violation paradigm, where words are presented either with their referent (match) or another object (mismatch). Such mismatch elicits an N400 effect, a well-established neural correlate of semantic processing. Reports of preverbal infant N400 evoked by semantic violations assert the use of this paradigm to probe mental representations of object words in nonverbal populations. Here, measuring dogs’ (Canis familiaris) ERPs to objects primed with matching or mismatching object words, we found a mismatch effect at a frontal electrode, with a latency (206–606 ms) comparable to the human N400. A greater difference for words that dogs knew better, according to owner reports, further supported a semantic interpretation of this effect. Semantic expectations emerged irrespective of vocabulary size, demonstrating the prevalence of referential understanding in dogs. These results provide the first neural evidence for object word knowledge in a non-human animal.

description: It has been previously shown, that classically chaotic kicked systems, whose unperturbed spectrum posseses one energy scale, admits a quantum anti-resonance (QAR) behavior. In this study we extend the conditions under which which this QAR occurs for the case of a two-sided kicked 1D infinite potential well. It is then shown by a perturbative argument that this QAR effects the behavior of the equivalent driven well, i.e., the number of periods needed to leave the initial state has a sharp peak around the QAR. We give a numerical evidence that the anti resonance persists even for large values of the perturbation parameter.

description: The random flux model (defined here as a model of lattice fermions hopping under the influence of maximally random link disorder) is analysed field theoretically. It is shown that the long range physics of the model is described by the supersymmetric version of a field theory that has been derived earlier in connection with lattice fermions subject to weak random hopping. More precisely, the field theory relevant for the behaviour of n-point correlation functions is of non-linear sigma model type, where the group GL(n|n) is the global invariant manifold. It is argued that the model universally describes the long range physics of random phase fermions and provides further evidence in favour of the existence of delocalised states in the middle of the band in two dimensions. The same formalism is applied to the study of non-Abelian generalisations of the random flux model, i.e. N-component fermions whose hopping is mediated by random U(N) matrices. We discuss some physical applications of these models and argue that, for sufficiently large N, the existence of long range correlations in the band center (equivalent to metallic behaviour in the Abelian case) can be safely deduced from the RG analysis of the model.

description: The extracellular matrix (ECM) is a complex assembly of proteins that constitutes the scaffold organizing cells, tissues, and organs. Over the past decade, mass-spectrometry-based proteomics has become the method of choice to profile the composition of the ECM, or the matrisome, of tissues. To assist non-specialists with the reuse of ECM proteomic datasets, we released MatrisomeDB (https://matrisomedb.org) in 2020. Here, we report the expansion of the database to include 25 new curated studies on the ECM of 24 new tissues in addition to datasets on tissues previously included, more than doubling the size of the original database and achieving near-complete coverage of the in-silico predicted matrisome. We further enhanced data visualization by maps of peptides and post-translational-modifications detected onto domain-based representations and 3D structures of ECM proteins. We also referenced external resources to facilitate the design of targeted mass spectrometry assays. Last, we implemented an abstract-mining tool that generates an enrichment word cloud from abstracts of studies in which a queried protein is found with higher confidence and higher abundance relative to other studies in MatrisomeDB.

Quark confinement and color transparency in a gauge-invariant formulation of QCD

description: We examine a nonlocal interaction that results from expressing the QCD Hamiltonian entirely in terms of gauge-invariant quark and gluon fields. The interaction couples one quark color-charge density to another, much as electric charge densities are coupled to each other by the Coulomb interaction in QED. In QCD, this nonlocal interaction also couples quark color-charge densities to gluonic color. We show how the leading part of the interaction between quark color-charge densities vanishes when the participating quarks are in a color singlet configuration, and that, for singlet configurations, the residual interaction weakens as the size of a packet of quarks shrinks. Because of this effect, color-singlet packets of quarks should experience final state interactions that increase in strength as these packets expand in size. For the case of an SU(2) model of QCD based on the {\em ansatz} that the gauge-invariant gauge field is a hedgehog configuration, we show how the infinite series that represents the nonlocal interaction between quark color-charge densities can be evaluated nonperturbatively, without expanding it term-by-term. We discuss the implications of this model for QCD with SU(3) color and a gauge-invariant gauge field determined by QCD dynamics.
