description: Detection of point sources in images is a fundamental operation in astrophysics, and is crucial for constraining population models of the underlying point sources or characterizing the background emission. Standard techniques fall short in the crowded-field limit, losing sensitivity to faint sources and failing to track their covariance with close neighbors. We construct a Bayesian framework to perform inference of faint or overlapping point sources. The method involves probabilistic cataloging, where samples are taken from the posterior probability distribution of catalogs consistent with an observed photon count map. In order to validate our method we sample random catalogs of the gamma-ray sky in the direction of the North Galactic Pole (NGP) by binning the data in energy and Point Spread Function (PSF) classes. Using three energy bins spanning $0.3 - 1$, $1 - 3$ and $3 - 10$ GeV, we identify $270\substack{+30 \\ -10}$ point sources inside a $40^\circ \times 40^\circ$ region around the NGP above our point-source inclusion limit of $3 \times 10^{-11}$/cm$^2$/s/sr/GeV at the $1-3$ GeV energy bin. Modeling the flux distribution as a power law, we infer the slope to be $-1.92\substack{+0.07 \\ -0.05}$ and estimate the contribution of point sources to the total emission as $18\substack{+2 \\ -2}$\%. These uncertainties in the flux distribution are fully marginalized over the number as well as the spatial and spectral properties of the unresolved point sources. This marginalization allows a robust test of whether the apparently isotropic emission in an image is due to unresolved point sources or of truly diffuse origin.

description: Während der Entwicklung von Stammzellen in Neuronen verändern sich sowohl die Morphologie als auch die Funktionalität der Zellen. Nach anfänglicher transkriptionsbasierter Reprogrammierung und asymmetrischer Teilung der Vorläuferzellen werden die ersten morphologischen Veränderungen anhand der Initiation von länglichen Zellauswüchsen, den Neuriten, sichtbar, welche im weiteren Verlauf in Axone und Dendriten differenzieren. Während dieser frühen Phasen der neuronalen Morphogenese ist eine Reorganisation des Mikrotubuli-Zytoskeletts zu beobachten, welche den Mikrotubuli eine kritische Rolle in der Initiation und demWachstum von Neuriten nahelegt. In dieser Arbeit wurde die Reorganisation des Mikrotubuli-Zytoskeletts während der neuronalen Differenzierung in P19 Zellen genauer untersucht. In der Literatur sind mehr als 400 Mikrotubuliregulierende Proteine bekannt, welche auf eine mögliche Funktion während der neuronalen Morphogenese untersucht werden sollten. Mittels Phänotyp-basierten High-Content Screens und spezifischem Protein knock down durch RNA-Interferenz wurden Regulatoren des Mikrotubuli-Zytoskeletts identifiziert, welche in die Neuriten Initiation involviert sind. Es konnten drei verschiedene Phänotypen nach Protein Suppression unterschieden werden, bei denen Änderungen in der Neuritenlänge (kürzer oder länger als bei den Kontrollzellen) oder eine Erhöhung des Neuritendurchmessers detektiert wurden.Weitere detaillierte Studien konnten ver- schiedene Untereinheiten des Dynein/Dynactin Motorprotein-Komplexes identifizieren, die in die Neuriten Initiation involviert sind. Außerdem induzierte die Suppression einiger bekannter Mitose- und Zytokinese-Proteine, Eg5 (KIF11), TPX2, INCENP und MKLP1 (KIF23), eine signifikante Erhöhung des Neuritendurchmessers, welche eine mögliche Rolle dieser Regulatoren in der Bündelung von Mikrotubuli suggeriert. Die Mitglieder der EB-Familie binden als +TIPs an wachsende Mikrotubuli-Enden und nehmen Einfluss auf die Stabilität von Mikrotubuli. Anhand der Ergebnisse der High-Content Screens sowie weiterer Studien mit kombinierter Protein Suppression konnten kompetitive Wechselwirkungen der drei Isoformen dieser Familie hinsichtlich des Neuritenwachstums beobachtet werden. Zusammengenommen konnten Regulatoren mit unterschiedlichem Einfluss auf die Dynamik und Organisation von Mikrotubuli identifiziert werden. In einem hypothetischen Modell wird der Einfluss dieser Mikrotubuli-Regulatoren auf die Neuritenbildung vorgestellt.

description: We present a quark-diquark model for the nucleons where the light front wave functions are constructed from the soft-wall AdS/QCD prediction. The model is consistent with quark counting rule and Drell-Yan-West relation. The model reproduces the scale evolution of unpolarized PDF of proton for a wide range of energy scale. Helicity and transversity distributions for the proton predicted in this model agree with phenomenological fits. The axial and tensor charges are also shown to agree with the experimental data. The model can be used to evaluate distributions like GPDS, TMDs etc. and their scale evolutions.

description: Third generation ground-based interferometers as well as the planned space-based interferometer LISA are expected to detect a plethora of gravitational wave signals from coalescing binaries at cosmological distance. The emitted gravitational waves propagate in the expanding universe through the inhomogeneous distribution of matter. Here we show that the acceleration of the universe and the peculiar acceleration of the binary with respect to the observer distort the gravitational chirp signal from the simplest General Relativity prediction beyond a mere time independent rescaling of the chirp mass, affecting intrinsic parameter estimations for the binaries visible by LISA. We find that the effect due to the peculiar acceleration can be much larger than the one due to the universe acceleration. Moreover, peculiar accelerations can introduce a bias in the estimation of parameters such as the time of coalescence and the individual masses of the binary. An error in the estimation of the arrival time will have an impact in the case of sources visible first by LISA and later by ground based interferometers.

description: Transients can be defined as astrophysical phenomena whose duration is significantly shorter than the typical timescale of the stellar and galactic evolution. Supernovae, novae, gamma-ray burst,..., are some examples of transient events. Fast, multiwavelength follow-up observations are often required to properly understand the true nature of the transient. Looking for information in astronomical archives can be a complementary approach but, sometimes, these searches are not conducted in an optimal way We propose here to use the opportunities the Virtual Observatory offers in terms of discovery, access and analysis of astronomical data to improve this approach, and to build an automated workflow to validate and characterise candidate Cataclysmic Variables (CVs) identified among the Gaia Science Alerts

description: The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects of crocin - a natural antioxidant derived from saffron - on cardiac reperfusion-induced arrhythmia and antioxidant systems such as catalase and superoxide dismutase (SOD) enzyme activities, glutathione (GSH) and malondialdehyde (MDA, as a marker of lipid peroxidation) levels. Rats in 4 experimental groups were administered crocin (20 mg/kg/day) or vehicle (i.p.) for 21 days with or without cardiac ischemia-reperfusion (IR). At the end of this period, hearts of anaesthetized animals in IR and “Cr + IR” groups were subjected to 10 min occlusion of the left anterior descending coronary artery and thereafter reperfused for 30 min. The results suggest that crocin is partially capable of suppressing reperfusion-induced arrhythmias. Compared to control group, ischemic-reperfusion injury significantly decreased SOD activity and GSH level and increased MDA level of heart muscle. “Cr + IR” group showed remarkably increased catalase activity in heart tissue (28.7 ± 6.6 vs. 23.6 ± 4.1 U/mg protein, P < 0.05) compared to the IR group. The level of cardiac tissue SOD activity in the “Cr + IR” group animals did not decline significantly compared to rats that were administered crocin alone with no ischemia. The results suggest a protective role of crocin on cardiac reperfusion arrhythmias which may at least partially be related to stability or even amplification of antioxidant systems. Crocin may potentially be useful for treatment or prevention of arrhythmias in patients with ischemic heart disease and this issue remains to be investigated in future clinical studies.

description: Herbal supplements are not governed by the same regulations as prescription drugs, we hy-pothesize that the content of their active ingredients may vary largely among different manu-facturers. This may produce variable therapeutic outcomes. This study aims to examine this hypothesis on commonly used herbal supplements among cancer patients. CYP1A2 has been implicated in the activation of many carcinogens and alteration in its activity may be a mech-anism associated with the protective effect of herbal products. Activity of human CYP1A2 was used to determine the effect of four herbal supplements of different brands, namely, black cohosh (BC), ginseng, grape seed extract (GSE) and green tea extract (GTE). The herbal con-tent was extracted with methanol, and extract aliquots were used to determine their effect on CYP1A2. Human liver microsomes, the CYP1A2 probe (7-ethoxyresorufin) and NADPH in buffer were incubated with and without herbal extract. Metabolite (resorufin) formation was monitored by HPLC. Seven BC products caused a mild inhibition of CYP1A2, ranging from 2.4 % by GNC Plus to 21.9 % by Nature’s Resource. Among nine ginseng products tested, the inhibitory effect varied from 4.2 % by Imperial to 44.6 % by Solarays. The effect of nine GSE brands also varied, ranging from 1.7 % (Country Life) to 26.5 % (Veg Life). Of twelve GTE products, the inhibitory effect varied from 2.9 % by Henry’s to 46.6 % by GNC Plus. It ap-pears that the inhibition of selected herbal supplements on CYP1A2 activity varies considera-bly among different brands of the products. This may be due to variations in the herbal prod-ucts’ active ingredients content.

Subjects: subject: Plasma Physics (physics.plasm-ph)

description: The interchange dynamics and velocity scaling of blob-like plasma filaments are investigated using a two-field reduced fluid model. For incompressible flows due to buoyancy the maximum velocity is proportional to the square root of the relative amplitude and the square root of its cross-field size. For compressible flows in a non-uniform magnetic field this square root scaling only holds for ratios of amplitudes to cross-field sizes above a certain threshold value. For small amplitudes and large sizes, the maximum velocity is proportional to the filament amplitude. The acceleration is proportional to the amplitude and independent of the cross-field size in all regimes. This is demonstrated by means of numerical simulations and explained by the energy integrals satisfied by the model.

description: Sexual health is an important component that is essential to one’s overall well-being and quality of life. This thesis examined the sexual functioning of young adults in relation to global self-esteem. While global self-esteem has been typically studied as a unidimensional construct, this thesis utilised a bidimensional framework of global self-esteem that comprises of the degree to which people accept themselves as social beings, and how capable they perceive themselves to be in achieving intended outcomes. A nuanced framework of global self-esteem and sexual function was found to operate through sexual motivations and sexual assertiveness.

description: The main objective of this study is to find out the factors influencing the usage of E-banking in Ethiopia. The study tries to find the main independent variables that could hamper the development of E-banking service products based on the two widely used adoption theories which are Technology Acceptance Model (TAM) and Innovation Diffusion Theory (IDT). The study identify main independent variables (perceived usefulness, perceived ease of use, compatibility, complexity, triability, observability, perceived risk or trust, culture, awareness, infrastructure, legal framework and government support) and usage or practicing of E-banking service products as dependant variable. Data on bank clients was collected in Addis Ababa from one government bank, Commercial Bank of Ethiopia and three private banks, Awash Bank, Dashen Bank, and Bank of Abyssinia and random quota sampling was taken from each of these banks. The analysis of data was made through SPSS 20. The study found out that the above independent variables have their own effect on the development of E-banking but infrastructure and compatibility have more weight. Much have been said in other studies about the poor level of infrastructure. As it is discussed on literature review part, Ethiopia is rated at the lowest even compared to East African countries. This study give attention to compatibility that is the need for integration of E-banking systems of all banks in Ethiopia and having one national platform in order to develop E-banking, E-commerce, E-marketing as well as Digital Economy.
Phenomenology of Enhanced Light Quark Yukawa Couplings and the $W^\pm h$ Charge Asymmetry

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: I propose the measurement of the $W^\pm h$ charge asymmetry as a consistency test for the Standard Model (SM) Higgs, which is sensitive to enhanced Yukawa couplings of the first and second generation quarks. I present a collider analysis for the charge asymmetry in the same-sign lepton final state, $p p \to W^\pm h \to (\ell^\pm ν) (\ell^\pm νjj)$, aimed at discovery significance for the SM $W^\pm h$ production mode in each charge channel with 300 fb$^{-1}$ of 14 TeV LHC data. Using this decay mode, I estimate the statistical precision on the charge asymmetry should reach 0.4\% with 3 ab$^{-1}$ luminosity, enabling a strong consistency test of the SM Higgs hypothesis. I also discuss direct and indirect constraints on light quark Yukawa couplings from direct and indirect probes of the Higgs width as well as Tevatron and Large Hadron Collider Higgs data. While the main effect from enhanced light quark Yukawa couplings is a rapid increase in the total Higgs width, such effects could be mitigated in a global fit to Higgs couplings, leaving the $W^\pm h$ charge asymmetry as a novel signature to test directly the Higgs couplings to light quarks.

description: Sensorimotor dysfunction is one of the factors leading to advancement of knee osteoarthritis (OA). Limited evidence supports the use of neuromuscular training (NMT) incorporating all the elements of sensorimotor function viz. strength, balance, coordination, and proprioception, hence the current study aimed to evaluate the efficacy of NMT integrating all aspects of sensorimotor function on pain, function, and balance in patients with knee OA. This single-blinded RCT recruited 62 subjects (40–65 years) with KL grade II-III of knee OA, who were randomly allocated into two groups namely NMT or strengthening group (twice a week for 6 weeks). Outcomes were assessed for pain (NPRS), function (CRD version of WOMAC, PSFS, chair stand test, stair climb test, timed up and go test), and balance (Y-balance) at baseline and at the completion of the intervention. 54 subjects completed the trial. Although both groups had significant improvement NMT was more effective (p value < 0.05) for most clinical outcomes of NPRS, Y-balance, and WOMAC with low-moderate effect size and objective functional tests – chair stand test and timed up and go test. NMT was more effective in improving the clinical outcomes of pain, function (except PSFS), and balance in subjects with KL grade II-III knee OA. Knee OA patients may benefit with addition of NMT to their intervention. However, due to limitations of low effect size, the results should be considered with caution.

Einfluss von Dialysemodalitäten auf die Mortalität

description: In dieser Arbeit werden die Daten von Dialysepatienten benutzt, um Behandlungsparameter zu identifizieren, die das Überleben von Dialysepatienten beeinflussen. Dazu wird ein Cox Proportional Hazard Modell erstellt, das zeitveränderliche und nichtlineare Einflüsse sowie Zentrumsfrailtyeffekte berücksichtigt. Bei der Überprüfung der Modellannahmen werden acht Einflussfaktoren ermittelt, bei denen die Modellannahmen nicht erfüllt sind. Für diese Parameter wird mit Hilfe einer stückweise Variation des Risikos über die Zeit oder einer zeitliche Aktualisierung der Werte ein Modell mit proportionalem Risiko erstellt. Weiterhin wird bei fünf der stetigen Einflussfaktoren festgestellt, dass der Einfluss nicht linear ist. Bei diesen Einflussfaktoren können fraktionale Polynome und Polynome 4. Grades die Nichlinearität erfassen. Die zufälligen Zentrumseffekte lassen sich mit einer Log-t)Verteilung am besten anpassen. Schliesslich wird eine Variablenselektion durchgeführt, in der elf Einflussfaktoren eliminiert werden, die die Modellgüte nicht verbessern. Die im Modell verbleibenden Einflüsse weisen darauf hin, dass ein Teil des Mortalitätsrisikos vom Patienten aufgrund seiner Demographie mitgebracht wird. Ein anderer Teil geht allerdings auf unter der Dialyse beeinflussbare Parameter zurück. Diese beschreiben verschiedene Behandlungsansätze die unter der Dialyse beachtet werden müssen. Weiterhin wird das Modell mit Hilfe des Loglikelihood Ansatzes und eines bayesianischen MCMC Verfahrens geschätzt. Die dabei geschätzten Parameter sind einander sehr ähnlich. Lediglich die Varianzen der Schätzer des bayesianischen Verfahrens sind kleiner als die des Likelihood Ansatzes. Dies wird darauf zurückgeführt, dass im bayesianischen Modell neben den Schätzern auch die Baselinehazardfunktion spezifiziert wird. Weiterhin wird eine sequentielle bayesianische Analyse durchgeführt. Das Einfügen weiterer Daten führt hierbei zu einer Verbesserung der Ergebnisse in Form geringerer Varianzen der Parameterschätzer. Ein Vorteil gegenüber einem Ein-Schritt-Verfahren konnte nicht festgestellt werden. Dies wird darauf zurückgeführt, dass in der sequentiellen Analyse zwischen den Schritten keine Adaption der a-priori Verteilungen stattgefunden hat.

description: For a collection of convex bodies $P_1,\dots,P_n \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ containing the origin, a Minkowski complex is given by those subsets whose Minkowski sum does not contain a fixed basepoint. Every simplicial complex can be realized as a Minkowski complex and for convex bodies on the real line, this recovers the class of threshold complexes. The purpose of this note is the study of the convex threshold dimension of a complex, that is, the smallest dimension in which it can be realized as a Minkowski complex. In particular, we show that the convex threshold dimension can be arbitrarily large. This is related to work of Chvátal and Hammer (1977) regarding forbidden subgraphs of threshold graphs. We also show that convexity is crucial this context.
