description: The NGC 1052 group, and in particular the discovery of two ultra diffuse galaxies with very low internal velocity dispersions, has been the subject of much attention recently. Here we present radial velocities for a sample of 77 globular clusters associated with NGC 1052 obtained on the Keck telescope. Their mean velocity and velocity dispersion are consistent with that of the host galaxy. Using a simple tracer mass estimator, we infer the enclosed dynamical mass and dark matter fraction of NGC 1052. Extrapolating our measurements with an NFW mass profile we infer a total halo mass of 6.2 ($\pm$0.2) $\times$ 10$^{12}$ M$_{\odot}$. This mass is fully consistent with that expected from the stellar mass--halo mass relation, suggesting that NGC 1052 has a normal dark matter halo mass (i.e. it is not deficient in dark matter in contrast to two ultra diffuse galaxies in the group). We present a phase space diagram showing the galaxies that lie within the projected virial radius (390 kpc) of NGC 1052. Finally, we briefly discuss the two dark matter deficient galaxies (NGC 1052--DF and DF4) and consider whether MOND can account for their low observed internal velocity dispersions.

description: We study a class of extensions of the k-contracted Poincaré algebra under the hipotesis of generalizing the Bargmann algebra and his central charge. As we will see this type of contractions will lead in a natural way to consider the codajoint Poincaré algebra and some of their contractions. Among them there is one such that. considering the quotient of it by a suitable ideal, the (stringy) p-brane Galilei algebra is recovered.

description: В современной обрабатывающей промышленности особая роль использования больших данных обусловлена тем, что они создают прозрачную инфраструктуру для прогнозирования и совершенствования организации производства. Это объективно обусловлено тем, что сектор обрабатывающей промышленности генерирует и хранит большие объемы данных, поступающих от датчиков, чем любой другой сектор. Например, только одна машина может генерировать тысячи записей для накопления информации о производстве и работоспособности в течение одной секунды, что составляет несколько триллионов записей в год. Аналитика этой информации имеет особое значение для реализации идеи цифрового производства, а также лежит в основе его точной настройки на удовлетворение потребностей персонализированного спроса клиентов. Кроме того, аналитика больших данных оказывает существенное влияние на НИОКР, техническое обслуживание, утилизацию товаров и переработку отходов, способствуя внедрению более экологически чистых и безопасных технологий и эффективному развитию устойчивых способов производства и потребления.

description: Efficient sampling approaches combined with reliable, fast testing procedures are crucial factors in surveillance for early detection of Xylella fastidiosa (Xf). In the frame of the European project ‘XF-ACTORS’, work was performed on developing effective sampling methods to support reliable detection of Xf, particularly in asymptomatic plants. The objectives of the work were to: (a) evaluate the efficiency of two methods for DNA extraction from plant material (1 g), employing two commercial kits, one silica-column-based and one magnetic-bead-based, in automated DNA-extraction devices. (b) test the performance of both DNA extraction methods in pooled (10 g) plant samples. c) evaluate the sensitivity of an isothermal DNA amplification and detection system applied on crude plant material preparation without DNA purification, using a portable fluorometer (AmpliFire, Douglas Scientific). The plant material was derived from cultivated host species of high economic importance and wide distribution in Greece: Olea europaea, Prunus cerasifera, Ficus carica, and various ornamentals with a major role in Xf epidemiology: Lavandula sp., Nerium sp., Pelargonium sp., Pistacia sp., Juniperus sp. and Tagetes sp. It was spiked with different levels of inactivated Xf cells. The DNA extracts were assessed for their quality (Α260/Α280), quantity (ng/μl) and performance in qPCR protocols recommended in EPPO/ISPM diagnostic standards. In the isothermal DNA amplification and detection system experiment, the plant material was derived from: Polygala myrtifolia, a species used in this project as an indicator host for monitoring the presence of Xf insect-vectors, and Myrtus microphylla, a species exhibiting strong inhibition of amplification in conventional PCR. The results obtained contribute to the improvement of sampling and molecular testing of plants in Xf surveillance programs, supporting reliable early detection of this pathogen, as far as the effectiveness of the selected DNA extraction method is concerned, especially when pooled samples are tested.

description: В течение многих лет государственный бюджет РФ сталкивается с такой большой проблемой, как дефицит, возникающий в результате превышения расходов государственного бюджета над доходами. Среди наиболее весомых причин бюджетной разбалансированности в России выделяют: несовершенство и неэффективность налогового законодательства, значительный объем теневой экономической деятельности, существенные расходы на ведение военных действий, немалый уровень безработицы, привлечение и использование займов для его покрытия, рост государственного долга с риском невыполнения долговых обязательств, значительный спад производства и инфляционные процессы, а также торможение развития финансовой системы. В период кризисного состояния экономики и социально-экономической нестабильности в России очень остро встал вопрос дефицита бюджета, что в соответствии со ст. 2 Бюджетного кодекса РФ представляет собой превышение расходов бюджета над его доходами (с учетом разницы между предоставлением кредитов из бюджета и возвратом кредитов в бюджет). Глубже всего основные характеристики этого понятия отражает его сущность. Главная цель исследования - раскрыть сущность имеющихся проблем дефицитности государственного бюджета РФ, обосновать причинно-следственные связи в системе дефицитного финансирования государственной деятельности и разработать пути ее оптимизации.
Stability and electronic structure in hexagonal beta-Al9Mn3Si and phi-Al10Mn3 crystals

description: The electronic structures of hexagonal beta-Al9Mn3Si and phi-Al10Mn3 are investigated through self-consistent calculations carried out using the LMTO method. This ab-initio approach is combined with an analysis of a simplified hamiltonian model for Al based alloys containing transition metal atoms. Results show a strong effect on an atomic structure stabilisation by an indirect Mn-Mn interaction mediated by conduction electrons over medium range distances (5 Angstrom and more). Both the role and position of Si atoms are explained as well as the origin of large vacancies which characterises these atomic structures. As beta and phi phases are related to Al based quasicrystals and related approximant structures, it yields arguments on the stabilisation of such complex phases.

description: Rabies is a zoonotic viral disease transmitted mainly by bites of infected animals, especially dogs, which are responsible for 99% of human cases. Despite being preventable, it remains a neglected disease in low-income countries, with approximately 60,000 deaths per year, mostly concentrated in Africa and Asia. The real worldwide burden of rabies is probably underestimated, as death-reporting systems are inadequate and active surveillance is limited.



Rabies prevention implies two main, non-exclusive strategies: (i) dog vaccination, in order to interrupt virus transmission to humans, and (ii) human vaccination i.e. pre-exposure prophylaxis (PrEP) and PEP through the use of purified cell-culture and embryonated egg-based vaccines (CCEEVs).



Rabipur® is one of the available anti-rabies vaccines and is indicated for active immunization in individuals of all ages. Its efficacy and safety have been amply demonstrated.



In rabies-free countries, PrEP is indicated for individuals who face occupational and/or travel-related exposure to the rabies virus in specific settings or over an extended period.



Wider use of human rabies vaccination for PrEP and PEP in conjunction with programs to eradicate rabies from animal populations would be the right direction in reducing the burden of disease and achieving zero rabies, a challenging goal.

Bohmian-based approach to Gauss-Maxwell beams

description: Usual Gaussian beams are particular scalar solutions to the paraxial Helmholtz equation, which neglect the vector nature of light. In order to overcome this inconvenience, Simon et al. (J. Opt. Soc. Am. A 1986, 3, 536-540) found a paraxial solution to Maxwell's equation in vacuum, which includes polarization in a natural way, though still preserving the spatial Gaussianity of the beams. In this regard, it seems that these solutions, known as Gauss-Maxwell beams, are particularly appropriate and a natural tool in optical problems dealing with Gaussian beams acted or manipulated by polarizers. In this work, inspired in the Bohmian picture of quantum mechanics, a hydrodynamic-type extension of such a formulation is provided and discussed, complementing the notion of electromagnetic field with that of (electromagnetic) flow or streamline. In this regard, the method proposed has the advantage that the rays obtained from it render a bona fide description of the spatial distribution of electromagnetic energy, since they are in compliance with the local space changes undergone by the time-averaged Poynting vector. This feature confers the approach a potential interest in the analysis and description of single-photon experiments, because of the direct connection between these rays and the average flow exhibited by swarms of identical photons (regardless of the particular motion, if any, that these entities might have), at least in the case of Gaussian input beams. In order to illustrate the approach, here it is applied to two common scenarios, namely the diffraction undergone by a single Gauss-Maxwell beam and the interference produced by a coherent superposition of two of such beams.

Главными обстоятельствами в развитии некоммерческой сферы России выступает, с одной стороны, сочетание целей обеспечения решения социальных проблем населения, развития демократической модели управления, решения экологических проблем, создание инфраструктуры для решения экономических вопросов, которые не в состоянии или неэффективно решает государство и частный сектор, с другой стороны, адаптация положительного опыта коммерческих предприятий по использованию рыночных методов управления предприятием к условиям некоммерческого рынка. К сожалению, экономический аспект деятельности некоммерческих предприятий России по сравнению с субъектами некоммерческого сектора развитых стран остается нереализованным, но поиск путей использования рыночных методов и ценностей субъектами некоммерческой сферы для достижения их целей является перспективным направлением исследования. Современные концепции возникновения некоммерческих организаций можно объединить в три группы: экономические, политологические и социологические. Эти концепции с разных позиций интерпретируют причины возникновения и природу некоммерческих организаций, обосновывают различные факторы их развития.

The revalidation or equivalence studies have complex procedures, which in most cases the affected resources at your institution choose, studies abroad. One option that saves and solve this problem is to work on the approval of educational programs, this article proposes a procedure for the approval of the educational program of the Bachelor of Agribusiness Management in the northwest region of Mexico, this proposal is based on various official documents and programs to regulate, guide or encourage the educational programs approval processes: the Agreement Number 286, published in the Official Journal of the Federation, lays down the guidelines that determine the rules and criteria that revalidation and studies’ equivalence must be adjusted and, the Integral Program for Institutional Strengthening (PIFI), which guides and encourages the actions of approval, the certification processes of educational programs that establish the Inter-Institutional Committees for Higher Education Assessment (CIEES), and various documents prepared by the National Association of Universities and Institutions of Higher Education (ANUIES).

The brightness temperature problem in extreme IDV quasars: a model for PKS 0405-385

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: I re-examine the brightness temperature problem in PKS 0405-385 which is an extreme intra-day variable radio quasar with an inferred brightness temperature of $\sim 5 \times 10^{14}$ K at 5 GHz, well above the Compton catastrophe limit of $\sim 10^{11}$ K reached when the synchrotron photon energy density exceeds the energy density of the magnetic field. If one takes into account the uncertainty in the distance to the ionized clouds responsible for interstellar scintillation causing rapid intra-day variability in PKS 0405-385 it is possible that the brightness temperature could be as low as $\sim 10^{13}$ K at 5 GHz, or even lower. The radio spectrum can be fitted by optically thin emission from mono-energetic electrons, or an electron spectrum with a low-energy cut-off such that the critical frequency of the lowest energy electrons is above the radio frequencies of interest. If one observes optically thin emission along a long narrow emission region, the average energy density in the emission region can be many orders of magnitude lower than calculated from the observed intensity if one assumed a spherical emission region. I discuss the physical conditions in the emission region and find that the Compton catastrophe can then be avoided using a reasonable Doppler factor. I also show that MeV to 100 GeV gamma-ray emission at observable flux levels should be expected from extreme intra-day variable sources such as PKS 0405-385.

description: Genus Endeis Philippi, 1843
 Diagnosis. Trunk elongate; lateral processes well separated; neck very short, usually with collar; chelifores and palps lacking in adults; ovigers in males only, seven-segmented, usually with vestigial strigilis-like spines sparsely distributed on the terminal segment, without terminal claw; legs long and slender, tarsus short, propodus long, with welldeveloped heel spines and strong auxiliary claw. Cement gland opening as many dorsal pores or tiny ducts arranged in one or two rows.
 Remarks. Members of this genus mostly inhabit shallow waters, with several exceptions known to live on floating seaweeds; some species have been observed to swim (Morgan 1971; Isaac & Jarvis 1973; Clark & Carpenter 1977). Endeis is widely distributed except in polar regions; the genus has not been reported from the Arctic Ocean, and only two species, E. australis (Hodgson, 1907) and E. viridis Pushkin, 1976, have been reported from Antarctic waters (Fry & Hedgpeth 1969; Pushkin 1993). At present there are 17 known species worldwide, generally occurring in low abundance but locally abundant in some habitats. Despite its broad distribution, this genus is morphologically uniform, though highly derived.
 Most species of Endeis have been recorded from relatively warm waters. The three species previously known from Japanese waters, E. mollis (Carpenter, 1904), E. nodosa Hilton, 1942, and E. meridionalis (Böhm, 1879), have been collected south of 35 ° N. Of these, we did not find E. mollis and E. nodosa in our survey, though they are known from the Nansei Islands. Ohshima (1935) collected Endeis mollis from the Ishigaki Islands as the first Endeis recorded from Japan. Nakamura and Child (1983, 1988) subsequently recorded this species from Sagami Bay and Iriomote Island, and Nakamura and Child (1988) reported Endeis nodosa from Naha Bay. Utinomi (1971) reported Endeis meridionalis from Chijiwa Bay, Nagasaki; this species has an equatorial distribution in the Indian Ocean, western Atlantic Ocean, and western Pacific Ocean, with Nagasaki the northern limit of its range.

description: Introduction


We examined the association of blood eosinophil counts at the time of AECOPD hospitalization with the risk of ICU admission as well as the hospital lengths of stay and mortality.


Methods


In the current retrospective study, the association between blood eosinophil counts in COPD patients at the time of AECOPD hospitalization and the risk of subsequent ICU admission as well as mortality was assessed. The chi-squared test and t-test were used to compare categorical and continuous variables. The statistical significance level was set at 0.05. Kaplan–Meier curves for mortality as well as ICU admission up to 40 days after discharge from the index hospitalization were constructed using the determined optimal eosinophil threshold derived above and for the predetermined ≥300 vs <300 cells/μL threshold. All analyses were performed using SPSS version 19.


Results


Antibiotic prescription was significantly associated with increased ICU admission (OR=1.57; confidence interval [95%CI] =1.02–2.42. Patients with higher FEV1 had decreased ICU admission (OR=0.98, 95% CI=0.97–1.01, p=0.1) as well as all-cause mortality compared (OR=0.98, 95% CI=0.92–1.04, p=0.58). There were significantly greater mortality rates for patients with higher ESR (OR=1.02, CI=1.01–1.03, p=0.01) and CRP (OR=1.02, 95% CI=1.01–1.03, p=0.01).  There were significantly lower ICU admission rates for patients with higher FVC (OR=0.97, 95% CI=0.95–0.98, p=0.002).


Conclusion


Blood eosinophil count could help determine the risk of ICU admission as well as mortality in COPD patients at the time of hospitalization.

description: Since the detection of Xylella fastidiosa (Xf) in Italy, European research interest into this bacterium has considerably increased. Research mainly focusses on Xf biology, evolution and epidemiology. However, managing the spread of Xf also requires the mobilization of other actors, whose action supports research driven strategy. Indeed, people who are directly impacted (arboriculturalist, winegrowers) must be involved to slow down the spread of Xf. We propose an interdisciplinary work that combines the production of knowledge in ecology with the analysis of the construction, use and diffusion of this knowledge to stakeholders using social studies of science and technology practices.
 In ecology, field observations, statistical and biomolecular analyses are conducted to characterize plant - insect vector and insect vector - Xf interactions. In sociology, an analysis of scientific production is carried out through the implementation of participatory observation to understand how scientific activities are linked with epidemiological surveillance. In addition, an analysis of the preparedness of stakeholders (professionals from agriculture, research and institutions involved in the French epidemiological surveillance system) based on semi-directive interviews is implemented.
 This interdisciplinary study, whose approach and first results will be presented has two objectives i) to propose prophylactic and control methods to slow down or prevent the establishment of Xf in the uncontaminated territories and ii) to provide recommendations for the dissemination and implementation of these practices with an evaluation of the preparedness in France. This approach could also lead to a reflexive understanding of how sciences and public management might be articulated to understand Xf disease as a socio-pathosystem.

description: The reflection bandwidth of polymer-stabilised cholesteric liquid-crystals (PSCLCs), with negative dielectric-anisotropy, can be broadened by applying a direct-current (DC) electric field. This class of materials is particularly interesting for its use in displays, optical storages, tunable lasers, or energy-conserving windows. The transient- and steady – currents across PSCLCs under DC voltages can be used to study the spatial distribution of charged bodies and the motion of the polymer network. Our results indicate that the shielding effect of both the electric double layers (EDLs) and alignment layers is the main reason for voltage loss. The electric-field threshold for reflection-band broadening decreases to 0.05 V/μm after the alignment layers were removed, and the power consumption also drops by nearly tenfold. This study helps to improve the fabrication of energy-saving devices and to explore new ways to improve PSCLCs.

description: Renewable energy is increasingly being curtailed, due to oversupply or network constraints. Curtailment can be partially avoided by smart grid management, but the long term solution is network reinforcement. Network upgrades, however, can be costly, so recent interest has focused on incentivising private investors to participate in network investments. In this paper, we study settings where a private renewable investor constructs a power line, but also provides access to other generators that pay a transmission fee. The decisions on optimal (and interdependent) renewable capacities built by investors, affect the resulting curtailment and profitability of projects, and can be formulated as a Stackelberg game. Optimal capacities rely jointly on stochastic variables, such as the renewable resource at project location. In this paper, we show how Markov chain Monte Carlo (MCMC) and Gibbs sampling techniques, can be used to generate observations from historic resource data and simulate multiple future scenarios. Finally, we validate and apply our game-theoretic formulation of the investment decision, to a real network upgrade problem in the UK.

description: While the optical properties of the superconducting salt $α$-(BEDT-TTF)$_2$NH$_4$Hg(SCN)$_4$ remain metallic down to 2 K, in the non-superconducting K-analog a pseudogap develops at frequencies of about 200 cm$^{-1}$ for temperatures T < 200 K. Based on exact diagonalisation calculations on an extended Hubbard model at quarter-filling we argue that fluctuations associated with short range charge ordering are responsible for the observed low-frequency feature. The different ground states, including superconductivity, are a consequence of the proximity of these compounds to a quantum phase charge-ordering transition driven by the intermolecular Coulomb repulsion.

description: Recent active galactic nucleus (AGN) and quasar surveys have revealed a population showing rapid AGN luminosity variability by a factor of $\sim10$. Here we present the most drastic AGN luminosity decline by a factor of $\gtrsim 10^{3}$ constrained by a NuSTAR X-ray observation of the nearby galaxy Arp 187, which is a promising "dead" quasar whose current activity seems quiet but whose past activity of $L_\mathrm{bol} \sim 10^{46}$ erg s$^{-1}$ is still observable at a large scale by its light echo. The obtained upper bound of the X-ray luminosity is $\log (L_{\rm 2-10 keV}/{\rm erg} {\rm s}^{-1}) < 41.2$, corresponding to $\log (L_\mathrm{bol}/{\rm erg} {\rm s}^{-1}) < 42.5$, indicating an inactive central engine. Even if a putative torus model with $N_\mathrm{H} \sim 1.5 \times 10^{24}$ cm$^{-2}$ is assumed, the strong upper-bound still holds with $\log (L_{\rm 2-10 keV}/{\rm erg} {\rm s}^{-1}) < 41.8$ or $\log (L_\mathrm{bol}/{\rm erg} {\rm s}^{-1}) < 43.1$. Given the expected size of the narrow line region, this luminosity decrease by a factor of $\gtrsim 10^3$ must have occurred within $\lesssim 10^4$ yr. This extremely rapid luminosity/accretion shutdown is puzzling and it requires one burst-like accretion mechanism producing a clear outer boundary for an accretion disk. We raise two possible scenarios realizing such an accretion mechanism: a mass accretion 1) by the tidal disruption of a molecular cloud and/or 2) by the gas depletion as a result of vigorous nuclear starformation after rapid mass inflow to the central engine.

description: Смартпромышленность базируется на полностью интегрированных сетях дигитализированных производственных систем. Первичным звеном смарт-промышленности является смарт предприятия, которые обычно характеризуют как фабрики (заводы) будущего, где управляемые компьютерами и искусственным интеллектом системы контролируют физические процессы, создают виртуальные копии физического мира, а также выбирают децентрализованные решения, основанные на принципах самоорганизации. Характерной чертой смартфабрики (завода) является то, что она представляет собой такую гибкую производственную систему, которая может самостоятельно приспосабливаться к изменяющимся условиям окружающей среды в реальном или почти реальном времени, автономно выполнять все производственные процессы и повышать производительность производственной деятельности. Как отмечают специалисты Deloitte - одной из ведущих организаций мира в области оказания профессиональных аудиторских и консалтинговых услуг - «умное» предприятие является шагом вперед от более традиционной автоматизации производственных процессов в полностью интегрированной и гибкой системы, которая собирает и использует потоки данных от соединенных операционных и производственных систем, и может самостоятельно обучаться и приспособиться к новым требованиям потребителей.

description: Background: There is evidence supporting the efficacy of Sacubitril /Valsartan for improving left heart failure, but few studies have examined its effects on right ventricular (RV) dysfunction. The current study aimed to investigate the effects of Sacubitril /Valsartan on RV dysfunction in patients with right heart failure.


Methods: The current study was a randomized and parallel clinical trial study. Patients over 18 years with any degree of right heart failure regardless of Left ventricular ejection fraction (LVEF) were included. The included patients were assigned randomly to three study arms using simple random allocation, i.e. the intervention group (Sacubitril Valsartan recipients) and the control groups (Losartan and Captopril recipients). The SPSS software version 19 was used for data analysis.


Results: The changes in LVEF, RV FAC, RV diameter, DOE grade, and TAPSE in the Sacubitril/Valsartan group were significantly higher than the other two groups. The severity of RV dysfunction, as well as  TR (Tricuspid Regurgitation) severity, decreased significantly three months after the intervention compared to the beginning of the intervention in all groups especially in the Sacubitril/Valsartan group (p: 0.006). The mortality rate in the Sacubitril/Valsartan, Losartan, and Captopril groups, were 2(6.7%), 2(11.2%), and 1(7.7%) respectively (p: 0.83). Also, 27.6, 62.5, and 7.7% of cases in the Sacubitril/Valsartan, Losartan, and Captopril reached to optimum dose (p: 0.006).


Conclusion: Considering the results, it seems that Sacubitril/Valsartan has a positive effect on improving RV dysfunction in patients with right heart disorders.

description: Гипоталамо-гипофизарно-надпочечниковая система является основной в реакции человека на стресс. Кортизол, что является конечным гормоном этой оси, регулирует метаболизм, сердечно-сосудистую, центральную нервную системы как при остром, так и при хроническом стрессе. Важную роль в регуляции активности нейроэндокринной системы во время стресса принимают катехоламинергические нейроны ствола мозга, что было исследовано при использовании модели иммобилизационного стресса. Афферентные пути блуждающего нерва отрицательно влияют на стрессоустойчивую секрецию адреналина из мозгового вещества надпочечников, поэтому при экспериментальной ваготомии, проведенной до моделирования иммобилизационного стресса, наблюдалось возрастание концентрации адреналина, норадреналина, кортикостерона у крыс по сравнению с животными, которым не было проведено ваготомию. Авторы предполагают, что это связано с воздействием адреналина крови с β2-адренорецепторами чувствительных окончаний n.vagus.

description: In this article we study the effect of a delta-interaction on a polymerized membrane of arbitrary internal dimension D. Depending on the dimensionality of membrane and embedding space, different physical scenarios are observed. We emphasize on the difference of polymers from membranes. For the latter, non-trivial contributions appear at the 2-loop level. We also exploit a ``massive scheme'' inspired by calculations in fixed dimensions for scalar field theories. Despite the fact that these calculations are only amenable numerically, we found that in the limit of D to 2 each diagram can be evaluated analytically. This property extends in fact to any order in perturbation theory, allowing for a summation of all orders. This is a novel and quite surprising result. Finally, an attempt to go beyond D=2 is presented. Applications to the case of self-avoiding membranes are mentioned.
