description: Additional file 1: Figure S1. LC-MS chromatogram of a synthetic CoA thioester standard using a porous organo-silica reversed phase column (100 × 2.1 mm, 1.5 µm) for the chromatographic separation. Co-eluting analytes were distinguished by a different specific mass-to-charge ratio (m/z). Figure S2. Calibration curves for different CoA thioesters using LC-MS/MS analysis. Table S1. Instrumental settings for LC-MS/MS analysis of CoA thioesters. The declustering potential (DP), the collision energy (CE) and the cell exit potential (CXP) were individually tuned for each CoA thioester. The parent ion reflects the positive proton adduct [M+H]+, except for the CoA homodimer (CoA-S-S-CoA), where the parent ion was [M+2H]2+. In each case, the daughter ion reflects the positive proton adduct after neutral loss of 507 (m/z). Table S2. Instrumental settings for LC-MS/MS analysis of fully 13C-labeled CoA thioesters used as internal standard for absolute CoA thioesters quantification. The respective mass of the fully labeled parent ion was determined by adding the number of carbon atoms to the monoisotopic mass of the non-labelled parent ion (Table S1). The mass of each daughter ion was then calculated by subtraction of m/z 517 form this value, considering the neutral loss of a fragment with ten 13C atoms.

description: The evolution of the electromagnetic coupling, alpha, in the momentum-transfer range 1800GeV^2 < -Q^2 < 21600GeV^2 is studied with about 40000 Bhabha-scattering events collected with the L3 detector at LEP at centre-of-mass energies 189-209GeV. The running of alpha is parametrised as: alpha(Q^2) = alpha_0/(1-C Delta alpha(Q^2)), where alpha_0=α(Q^2=0) is the fine-structure constant and C=1 corresponds to the evolution expected in QED. A fit to the differential cross section of the e+e- ->e+e- process for scattering angles in the range |cos theta|<0.9 excludes the hypothesis of a constant value of alpha, C=0, and validates the QED prediction with the result: C = 1.05 +/- 0.07 +/- 0.14, where the first uncertainty is statistical and the second systematic.

description: Software is an open-source software for numerical simulations of chain-like quantum systems with nearest-neighbor (NN) interactions only. The Python package is centered around tensor train (TT, or matrix product) format representations of Hamiltonian operators and (stationary or time-evolving) state vectors. It builds on the Python tensor train toolbox Scikit_tt, which provides efficient construction methods and storage schemes for the TT format. Its solvers for eigenvalue problems and linear differential equations are used in Software for the time-independent and time-dependent Schrödinger equations, respectively. Employing efficient decompositions to construct low-rank representations, the tensor-train ranks of state vectors are often found to depend only marginally on the chain length $N$. This results in the computational effort growing only slightly more than linearly with $N$, thus mitigating the curse of dimensionality. As a complement to the classes for full quantum mechanics, Software also contains classes for fully classical and mixed quantum-classical (Ehrenfest or mean field) dynamics of bipartite systems. The graphical capabilities allow visualization of quantum dynamics ?on the fly?, with a choice of several different representations based on reduced density matrices. Even though developed for treating quasi one-dimensional excitonic energy transport in molecular solids or conjugated organic polymers, including coupling to phonons, Software can be used for any kind of chain-like quantum systems, with or without periodic boundary conditions, and with NN interactions only. The present work describes version 1.0 of our WaveTrain software, based on version 1.2 of scikit_tt, both of which are freely available from the GitHub platform where they will also be further developed. Moreover, Software is mirrored at SourceForge, within the framework of the WavePacket project for numerical quantum dynamics. Worked-out demonstration examples with complete input and output, including animated graphics, are available.

description: Q-ball is a non-topological soliton whose stability is ensured by global U(1) symmetry. We study a Q-ball which arises in the Affleck-Dine mechanism for baryogenesis and consider its possible instability due to U(1) breaking term ($A$-term) indispensable for successful baryogenesis. It is found that the instability destroys the Q-ball if its growth rate exceeds inverse of the typical relaxation time scale of the Q-ball. However, the instability is not so strong as it obstructs the cosmological formation of the Q-balls.

description: The most useful and practical strategy available for reducing variability of net farm income is ascertained. Of the many risk management tools presently available, five of the most commonly used are simultaneously incorporated in an empirically tested model. Quadratic programming provides the basis for decision-making in risk management wherein expected utility is assumed to be a function of the mean and variance of net income. Results demonstrate that farmers can reduce production and price risks when a combination strategy including a diversified crop production plan and participation in the futures market and the Federal Crop Insurance Program (FCIP) is implemented.

description: Rotations have historically been used to alleviate pest problems in crop production. This paper considers methods of modeling rotations in linear programming models for Southeastern vegetable production. In such models, entering each possible crop rotation as a separate activity can be burdensome because of the large numbers of possible rotational alternatives. Conventional methodology for double crop rotations reduces the number of activities but must be adapted to accommodate triple crop rotational requirements in vegetable production. This paper demonstrates these methods both for a simple example and an empirical problem with numerous rotation alternatives. While the methods presented in this paper may have computational disadvantages compared to entering each rotation as a separate activity, they do have advantages in model design and data management.

description: Conventional agricultural practices are depleting essential natural resources such as land, water and soil. Simultaneously, the growing global population is directly escalating the demand for food. To address these demands, technology becomes crucial for enhancing both the quantity and quality of food production on a global scale. Notably, horticulture production in India has recently exceeded that of traditional agriculture, opening up broader opportunities. Recognizing that multiple inputs are necessary for crop production, it is crucial to emphasize the significance of high-quality planting material as a fundamental and critical factor in horticulture. The insufficient availability and low quality of planting material pose significant constraints in this regard.

description: There are about 70 different species of mangroves in the tropics and sub-tropic climates, with the Indo-West Pacific having the most diverse assemblage (30-35 species), and the Arabian Gulf having the least diverse community of just two native species: Rhizophora macrunata and Avicennia marina. The last, is the only one that takes root on the shores of Qatar. Avicennia marina, the grey or white mangrove, is particularly equipped for life in very saline habitats and sediments that get quickly depleted of oxygen. Using its aerial roots that extend vertically out of the main root, it performs ultrafiltration of seawater, leaving the salt behind. The salt that makes it in is then excreted on the underside of its sclerophyllous (hard) leaves. The aerial roots are called pneumatophores (lung carriers) because they bring in extra oxygen. In Al Khor and Al Thakira, we find two of the naturally occuring mangrovial forests. The rest, have been partially or fully afforested (planted by humans) in the 1980’s, when it was recognized that mangroves could help protect from coastal erosion, flooding, and filter out pollution. These are what we call ecosystem services in ecology. After all these decades, the young planted seedlings have grown into lush forests that can be seen on satellite images.Other InformationPublished in: Earthna publications reports

description: We derive a canonical form for skew-symmetric endomorphisms $F$ in Lorentzian vector spaces of dimension three and four which covers all non-trivial cases at once. We analyze its invariance group, as well as the connection of this canonical form with duality rotations of two-forms. After reviewing the relation between these endomorphisms and the algebra of conformal Killing vectors of $\mathbb{S}^2$, $\mathrm{CKill}(\mathbb{S}^2)$, we are able to also give a canonical form for an arbitrary element $ ξ\in \mathrm{CKill}(\mathbb{S}^2)$ along with its invariance group. The construction allows us to obtain explicitly the change of basis that transforms any given $F$ into its canonical form. For any non-trivial $ ξ$ we construct, via its canonical form, adapted coordinates that allow us to study its properties in depth. Two applications are worked out: we determine explicitly for which metrics, among a natural class of spaces of constant curvature, a given $ξ$ is a Killing vector and solve all local TT (traceless and transverse) tensors that satisfy the Killing Initial Data equation for $ξ$. In addition to their own interest, the present results will be a basic ingredient for a subsequent generalization to arbitrary dimensions.

description: In the last several years we have witnessed the creation of data at an unprecedented rate and the size of datasets available in various applications has exploded. This data comes from everywhere: sensors used to gather climate information, sky survey telescopes used to collect astronomy data, customers who generate purchase records, and gene expression data from microarrays to name a few. Modern machine learning and statistics has focused extensively on solving various inference problems involving these datasets. In this thesis we develop robust estimation proce dures with theoretical guarantees for a variety of learning problems using noisy and high-dimensional data. Learning from noisy and high-dimensional data can be impossible if we do not exploit structure available in the data or learning task and in this thesis we focus on understanding the statistical and computational aspects of finding and leveraging structure in these datasets and learning problems. The challenges we address in this thesis broadly fall into three categories: high dimensional sparse learning, clustering from noisy high-dimensional data and topological data analysis. In each case our main focus is on developing principled, efficient algorithms that leverage hidden structure and providing rigorous theoretical analysis of their performance. In several cases we also provide (statistical) lower bounds to establish the fundamental statistical limits for the problems we consider.

description: La politica di divulgazione del patrimonio architettonico spagnolo durante il primo regime franchista (1948-1959) ha riunito un'intera generazione di ispanisti nordamericani interessati alla costruzione di un nuovo paradigma globale dell'architettura rinascimentale in Spagna e nei suoi domini. A questo proposito, le opere degli storici Earl E. Rosenthal (1921-2007) e George Kubler (1912-1996) costituiscono un dittico nel tempo. Questo saggio si concentrerà sull'eredità storiografica di entrambe le costruzioni a partire da materiali d'archivio inediti, come i Earl E. Rosentahl Papers (The University of Chicago Library) e la collezione di George Kubler (Institut Amatller d'Art Hispànic-Arxiu Mas), nonché sulla loro portata come paradigma di una storia delle idee che si muove nella tensione tra globale e locale, o nella modernità come zeitgeist del popolare.

The policy of disseminating Spanish architecture heritage under early Francoism (1948-1959) attracted a whole generation of US Hispanists interested in constructing a new global paradigm of Renaissance architecture in Spain and its dominions. In this respect, the works of historians Earl E. Rosenthal (1921-2007) and George Kubler (1912-1996) constitute a diptych in time. This essay will centre on the historiographic legacy of both bodies of work, based on unpublished archive material such as documents of the Earl E. Rosentahl Papers (The University of Chicago Library) and the George Kubler collection (Institut Amatller d’Art Hispànic—Arxiu Mas), and its scope as a paradigm of a history of ideas that moves along the tension between global and local, or modernity as the zeitgeist of the popular.

description: Transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) monolayers are two-dimensional semiconductors with two valleys in their band structure that can be selectively addressed using circularly polarized light. Their photoluminescence spectrum is characterized by neutral and charged excitons (trions) that form a chemical equilibrium governed by the net charge density. Here, we use chemical doping to drive the conversion of excitons into trions in $\text{WS}_{2}$ monolayers at room temperature, and study the resulting valley polarization via photoluminescence measurements under valley-selective optical excitation. We show that the doping causes the emission to become dominated by trions with a strong valley polarization associated with rapid non-radiative recombination. Simultaneously, the doping results in strongly quenched but highly valley-polarized exciton emission due to the enhanced conversion into trions. A rate equation model explains the observed valley polarization in terms of the doping-controlled exciton-trion equilibrium. Our results shed light on the important role of exciton-trion conversion on valley polarization in monolayer TMDs.

description: We present a technique to adaptively bin sparse X-ray data using weighted Voronoi tesselations (WVTs). WVT binning is a generalisation of Cappellari & Copin's (2001) Voronoi binning algorithm, developed for integral field spectroscopy. WVT binning is applicable to many types of data and creates unbiased binning structures with compact bins that do not lead the eye. We apply the algorithm to simulated data, as well as several X-ray data sets, to create adaptively binned intensity images, hardness ratio maps and temperature maps with constant signal-to-noise ratio per bin. We also illustrate the separation of diffuse gas emission from contributions of unresolved point sources in elliptical galaxies. We compare the performance of WVT binning with other adaptive binning and adaptive smoothing techniques. We find that the CIAO tool csmooth creates serious artefacts and advise against its use to interpret diffuse X-ray emission.

title: Dispositionale Achtsamkeit und ihre Rolle im Kontext der Suffizienzorientierung

description: Dispositionale Achtsamkeit ist Gegenstand vieler Studien zur Nachhaltigkeit. In Bezug darauf soll die vorliegende Studie neue Erkenntnisse über einen spezifischeren, bisher kaum erforschten Zusammenhang liefern: Wie hängt das Konstrukt der dispositionalen Achtsamkeit mit einer Suffizienzorientierung zusammen? Dazu wurde eine Querschnittstudie, mittels einer Online-Befragung durchgeführt, aus der zunächst N = 424 Versuchsteilnehmende resultierten und von denen letztendlich n = 309 in die Analyse einbezogen wurden. Erhebungsinstrumente stellten hierbei zum einen die deutsche Version des „Five Facet Mindfulness Questionnaires“ (FFMQ-D) (Michalak et al., 2016), und zum anderen die „Sufficiency Attitude Scale“ (Henn, 2013) dar. Die anschließende Analyse wurde primär mit Hilfe des Programmes IBM SPSS Statistics durchgeführt.
Zur Überprüfung der aufgestellten Hypothesen wurde eine lineare multiple Regressionsanalyse berechnet. Es resultiert ein signifikantes Modell, in dem allerdings kein signifikanter Effekt der dispositionalen Achtsamkeit oder einzelnen Facetten dieser auf eine Suffizienzorientierung festgestellt werden kann. Signifikante Effekte werden lediglich für zwei Kontrollvariablen,
Naturverbundenheit und Meditationserfahrung, beobachtet. Die Ergebnisse deuten darauf hin, dass dispositionale Achtsamkeit womöglich kein Prädiktor für die Suffizienzorientierung einer Person darstellt und dass es noch weitere Prädiktoren geben muss. Anzumerken ist jedoch, dass diese Studie Limitationen aufweist, die die Ergebnisse beeinflusst haben könnten. Diese Analyse stellt daher einen ersten spezifischen Versuch zur Untersuchung des Zusammenhangs dar und soll als Grundlage für zukünftige Forschungen dienen.
Unveiling the potential: Agrodiversity enhancement via intercrop breeding

description: Unveiling the potential: Agrodiversity enhancement via intercrop breeding

Introduction: Agrobiodiversity enhancement through intercrop breeding holds immense promise for agriculture and the preservation of biodiversity. Intercropping is considered advantageous for a myriad of reasons, including an increase in yield stability, nutritional value and the provision of various regulating ecosystem services, all of which contribute to agrobiodiversity conservation. However, intercropping also introduces diverse competition effects between the mixing partners, which can signifcantly negatively impact their agronomic performance. Therefore, selecting complimentary intercropping partners is the key to realizing well-mixed crop production.Several specialized intercrop breeding concepts have been proposed to support the development of complementary varieties, but their practical implementation remains limited to date. We, therefore, explore and compare the potential of various monoculture breeding strategies using in-silico simulations as initial stepping-stones towards the more dedicated intercrop breeding methods.

Objective:The presented research project aims to develop an optimal breeding strategy for intercrops by extending existing approaches for sole crop breeding using in silico simulations and to highlight the major selection stages in an intercrop breeding program

Results:

1. Sole crop breeding yields higher genetic gains when conducted independently.2. The crucial stage in intercrop breeding is the selection of intercrop combinations.3. Initiation of intercrop trials depends on the specifc trait chosen for selection.4. No consistent trend observed for trait selection in sole crop or intercrop; efcacy linked to selection stage and trait type.5. Intercrop traits are typically fxed within approximately 20 breeding cycles.6. Sole crop traits may require a longer duration for fxation.7. Breeding dynamics are complex, highlighting the intricate interplay between selection stages, trait types, and breeding cycles in both sole crop and intercrop methodologies.

 

Conclusion:

We show that the breeding strategy employed in each of the two populations is not necessarily alike and should be adapted to the specifcity of the crop and the heritability of the traits involved. While recurrent selection for reciprocal mixture ability is likely the more effective breeding paradigm regarding genetic intercrop gain, a well-considered combination of monoculture breeding strategies could be preferred as the second-best alternative, requiring less intrusive changes to the design of the breeding programmes.

Microsatellite studies of oral cancer and premalignant lesions
Creators: name: Poh, Catherine Fang-Yeu
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Oral squamous cell carcinoma (SCC) is believed to progress through sequential stages of premalignancies to invasive cancer. Once SCC is formed, the prognosis is poor. The 5-year survival rate of less than 50% is one of the worst among major human cancers. One of the essential keys to improving this gloomy prognosis lies in early diagnosis and proper management of premalignant lesions. A central dogma of carcinogenesis is that alteration to critical control genes underlies malignant transformation. A major focus of this thesis was to study early molecular pathways of oral cancer development and their impact on treatment. Loss of heterozygosity (LOH) has been shown to be a powerful molecular approach to detect genetic alteration of tumor suppressor genes in many organs and systems, including oral cancer and premalignant lesions. It is also the major molecular technique used in this thesis. Genetic changes in oral premalignant lesions and SCC studied (n=226) were investigated by microsatellite analysis for LOH at 19 loci on chromosome arms (3p, 9p, 17p, 4q, 8p, 11q, and 13q). This thesis has provided data to establish molecular progression models for both SCC and VC, which provide information on molecular cancer risk of premalignancies, and has yielded the first evidence that premalignancies with different molecular risks could be managed differently. It has also shown a possible role of HPV in the development of post-transplant oral SCC. These results not only provide insight into the mechanism of early cancer development but also suggest the use of these molecular assays as tools for targeting high-risk premalignancies. Hence, the studies have important clinical implications. The importance of the data is illustrated by the fact that a recent editorial on latest advances on genetic studies of oral premalignancies from the New England Journal of Medicine (Lippman and Hong, 2001) has cited 8 significant studies and one of these is from this thesis, and another from this lab with data from this thesis.

description: For the first time, the A- dependence of the production of $K^0$, $Λ$ and, for comparison, $π^-$ mesons is investigated in neutrinonuclear reactions, using the data obtained with SKAT bubble chamber. An exponential parametrization ($\sim A^β$) of the particle yields results in $β_{V^0} = 0.20 \pm 0.05$ for $V^0$ particles (combined $K^0$ and $Λ$), while for $π^-$ mesons the A- dependence is much weaker, $β_{π^-} = 0.068 \pm 0.007$. A nuclear enhancement of the ratio $K^0/π^-$ is found; this ratio increases from $0.055 \pm 0.013$ for $νN$- interactions up to $0.070 \pm 0.011$ at $A \approx 21$ and $0.099 \pm 0.011$ at $A \approx 45$. It is observed, that the multiplicity rise of $V^0$'s occures predominantely in the backward hemisphere of the hadronic c.m.s. It is shown, that the A- dependence of the nuclear enhancement of the $Λ^0$ and $π^-$ yields can be reproduced in the framework of a model, incorporating the secondary intranuclear interactions of pions originating from the primary $νN$- interactions, while only (29$\pm$9)% of that for $K^0$ at $A \approx 45$ can be attributed to intranuclear interactions.

description: Generation of a single photon or a pair of photons from a single emitter is important for quantum information applications. Using the generating function formalism we investigate the theory of a few photons on demand for the square laser pulse and the rapid adiabatic following method. Exact theory and numerical solutions are used to design control fields for a two level emitter, which yield an optimal single or two photon source, under the constrains of finite laser field strength and finite interaction time. Comparison to experiments of Brunel et al, shows that the experiments were made close to optimal conditions.

description: There are about 70 different species of mangroves in the tropics and sub-tropic climates, with the Indo-West Pacific having the most diverse assemblage (30-35 species), and the Arabian Gulf having the least diverse community of just two native species: Rhizophora macrunata and Avicennia marina. The last, is the only one that takes root on the shores of Qatar. Avicennia marina, the grey or white mangrove, is particularly equipped for life in very saline habitats and sediments that get quickly depleted of oxygen. Using its aerial roots that extend vertically out of the main root, it performs ultrafiltration of seawater, leaving the salt behind. The salt that makes it in is then excreted on the underside of its sclerophyllous (hard) leaves. The aerial roots are called pneumatophores (lung carriers) because they bring in extra oxygen. In Al Khor and Al Thakira, we find two of the naturally occuring mangrovial forests. The rest, have been partially or fully afforested (planted by humans) in the 1980’s, when it was recognized that mangroves could help protect from coastal erosion, flooding, and filter out pollution. These are what we call ecosystem services in ecology. After all these decades, the young planted seedlings have grown into lush forests that can be seen on satellite images.Other InformationPublished in: Earthna publications reports

description: We have imaged the halo populations of a sample of nearby spiral galaxies using the Wide Field Planetary Camera 2 on broad the Hubble Space Telescope with the aim of studying the stellar population properties and relating them to those of the host galaxies. In four galaxies, the red-giant branch is sufficiently well populated to measure the magnitude of the tip of the red-giant branch (TRGB), a well-known distance indicator. Using both the Sobel edge-detection technique and maximum-likelihood analysis to measure the $I$-band magnitude of the red giant branch tip, we determine distances to four nearby galaxies: NGC 253, NGC 4244, and NGC 4945, NGC 4258. For the first three galaxies, the TRGB distance determined here is more direct, and likely to be more accurate, than previous distance estimates. In the case of NGC 4258, our TRGB distance is in good agreement with the the geometrical maser distance, supporting the the Large Magellanic Cloud distance modulus $(m-M)_0 = 18.50$ that is generally adopted in recent estimates of the Hubble constant.

description: Tra il 1546 e il 1560, il governatore Lope de Herrera promuove un progetto di rinnovamento urbano della città di Sessa Aurunca, nel Regno di Napoli, su una scala paragonabile a quella realizzata a Napoli dal viceré Pedro de Toledo. Il rinnovamento urbano di Sessa Aurunca dimostra l'interazione tra la celebrazione dei feudatari e l'identità civica delle famiglie dell'élite locale. Nel 1549, per sottolineare la fedeltà della città nei confronti dell'Impero - allora rappresentato dalla Spagna - il Governatore collocò nel Seggio dei Nobili la statua medievale di Jacopo del Gaudio, un cittadino che aveva combattuto per gli Svevi contro gli Angiò. Nel 1558, la porta della città fu ristrutturata, riutilizzando una statua già esistente - un trofeo scolpito qualche decennio prima per celebrare la memoria del "Gran Capitano" Gonzalo de Cordoba, antenato del duca Gonzalo II. Nella nuova posizione, il trofeo passò dalla celebrazione di un singolo uomo alla glorificazione dell'intera famiglia e della città di Sessa.

Between 1546 and 1560, Governor Lope de Herrera promoted a project of urban renewal of the city of Sessa Aurunca, in the Kingdom of Naples, on a scale comparable to that carried out in Naples by the Viceroy Pedro de Toledo. The urban renewal of Sessa Aurunca demonstrates the interaction between the celebration of the feudal lords and the civic identity of the families of local élite. In 1549, to underline the town’s loyalty toward the Empire – then represented by Spain - the Governor placed in the Seggio of the Noblemen the medieval statue of Jacopo del Gaudio, a citizen who had fought for the Swabian against the Anjou. In 1558, the city gate was remodelled, reusing an already existing statue - a trophy sculpted some decade before for celebrating the memory of «the Great Captain» Gonzalo de Cordoba, ancestor of Duke Gonzalo II. In the new position, the trophy evolved from celebrating a single man to glorifying his entire family and the city of Sessa through it.

description: Efficient nonlinearity compensation in fiber-optic communication systems is considered a key element to go beyond the "capacity crunch''. One guiding principle for previous work on the design of practical nonlinearity compensation schemes is that fewer steps lead to better systems. In this paper, we challenge this assumption and show how to carefully design multi-step approaches that provide better performance--complexity trade-offs than their few-step counterparts. We consider the recently proposed learned digital backpropagation (LDBP) approach, where the linear steps in the split-step method are re-interpreted as general linear functions, similar to the weight matrices in a deep neural network. Our main contribution lies in an experimental demonstration of this approach for a 25 Gbaud single-channel optical transmission system. It is shown how LDBP can be integrated into a coherent receiver DSP chain and successfully trained in the presence of various hardware impairments. Our results show that LDBP with limited complexity can achieve better performance than standard DBP by using very short, but jointly optimized, finite-impulse response filters in each step. This paper also provides an overview of recently proposed extensions of LDBP and we comment on potentially interesting avenues for future work.

description: IoT technology is evolving at a quick pace and is becoming an important part of everyday life. Consequently, IoT systems hold large amounts of data related to the user of the system that is vulnerable to security breaches. Thus, data collected by IoT systems need to be secured efficiently without affecting the IoT systems’ performance and without compromising security as well. In this paper, a high-performance dynamic security system is introduced. The system makes use of the ZedBoard’s dynamic partial reconfiguration capability to shift between three distinct cipher algorithms: AEGIS, ASCON, and DEOXYS-II. The switching between the three algorithms is performed using two different techniques: the algorithm hopping technique or the power adaptive technique. The choice of which technique to be used is dependent on whether the system needs to be focused on performance or power saving. The ciphers used are the CAESAR competition finalists that achieved the greatest results in each of the three competition categories, where each cipher algorithm has its own set of significant characteristics. The proposed design seeks to reduce the FPGA reconfiguration time by the application of LZ4 (Lempel-Ziv4) compression and decompression techniques on the ciphers’ bitstream files. The reconfiguration time decreased by a minimum of 38% in comparison to the state-of-the-art design, while the resource utilization increased by approximately 2%.

description: We analyze the pair production of charged particles in two-dimensional Anti-de Sitter space (AdS_2) with a constant, uniform electric field. We compute the production rate both at a semi-classical level, viewing Schwinger pair production as a tunneling event, and at the full quantum level, by extracting the imaginary part of the one-loop amplitude. In contrast to the usual Schwinger pair production in flat space, pair production in AdS_2 requires a sufficiently large electric field E^2> M^2+1/4 in order to overcome the confining effect of the AdS geometry -- put in another way, the presence of an electric field E raises the Breitenlohner-Freedman bound to M^2 > -1/4 + E^2. For E greater than this threshold, the vacuum is unstable to production of charged pairs in the bulk. We expect our results to be helpful in constructing supersymmetric AdS_2 X S^2 perturbative string vacua, which enter in the near-horizon limit of extremal charged black holes. Although the generalized Breitenlohner-Freedman bound is obeyed in these cases, production of BPS particles at threshold is possible and relevant for AdS_2 fragmentation.
