description: La création par voie sexuée de variétés de porte-greffes plus résistantes à la chlorose que 41B (Chasselas X Berlandieri) est entreprise à la Station depuis 1959. Les problèmes rencontrés dans la réalisation de ce travail sont nombreux et difficiles. En effet, en plus de la résistance à la chlorose, les nouvelles variétés doivent posséder toutes les qualités propres à l'ensemble des porte-greffes (résistance au Phylloxéra, bonne aptitude à la rhizogenèse, bonne affinité, vigueur élevée et résistance de la plante-mère aux parasites cryptogamiques, etc .... ). L'appréciation de la résistance d'un nouveau porte-greffe à la chlorose ne peut pas être faite sur des plantes franches de pied. Il est nécessaire de greffer un cé page de Vitis vinifera sur ce porte-greffe et d'observer pendant plusieurs années le comportement de cette association dans un sol très chlorosant. Pour obtenir plus rapidement des données précises sur le degré de résistance des variétés nouvelles, nous utilisons la m é t h o d e d e s g r ef f a g e s r é c i pro q u e s. Grâce à la méthode des greffages réciproques, il est possible d'apprécier à la fois: • pour les variétés de porte-greffes, l'aptitude, du système radiculaire à absorber et à transporter le fer, • pour les variétés de greffons, les exigences en fer du système foliaire. Fragen der Züchtung kalkchlorosefester Unterlagsreben Die Station befaßt sich seit 1959 mit der Kreuzungszüchtung von Unterlagssorten, die chlorosefester sind als 41B. Bei der Durchführung dieser Aufgabe treten zahlreiche und schwierige Probleme auf. Denn die neuen Sorten müssen - außer der Chloroseresistenz - alle für Unterlagsreben wesentlichen Eigenschaften besitzen (Reblausresistenz, gute Bewurzelungsfahigkeit, gute Affinität, hohe Wüchsigkeit und Resistenz des Mutterstockes gegen Pilzparasiten usw.). Die Chlorosefestigkeit einer neuen Unterlagsrebe kann nicht an ungepfropften Stöcken festgestellt werden. Es ist notwendig, auf diese Unterlage eine Vitis-vinifera-Sorte zu pfropfen und während mehrerer Jahre das Verhalten dieser Kombination in einem stark Chlorose auslösenden Boden zu beobachten. Um rascher genaue Daten über den Rezistenzgrad neuer Arten zu gewinnen, wenden wir die M e t h o d e d e r r e z i p r o k e n P f r o p f u n g e n a n. Die Methode der reziproken Pfropfungen erlaubt die gleichzeitige Beurteilung • der Fähigkeit des Wurzelsystems zur Absorption und zum Transport von Eisen bei den Unterlagssorten; • des Eisenbedarfs des Blattsystems bei den als Pfropfreis verwendeten Sorten.

Einige Aspekte der Frosthärteprüfung bei Modellversuchen in Klimakammern

description: Um in der Frostresistenzzüchtung Fehldeutungen von Ergebnissen der Frühdiagnose zu vermindern, ist die Winterhärte der Rebe nicht als eine statische Eigenschaft, sondern als ein sich dynamisch entwickelndes Verhaltensvermögen zu betrachten. Zu dieser Entwicklung tragen - innerhalb genetisch bedingter Grenzen - die Ereignisse der Vegetationsperiode mindestens so schwerwiegend bei wie der Verlauf der Härtungsphase sowie die Frostwirkung selbst. Aus zahlreichen Frostungsversuchen konnte gezeigt werden, • welche Änderungen der Frosthärte sich während der Winterruhe erkennen lassen und • welche Auswirkungen die ökologischen Verhältnisse der Vegetationsperiode ausüben. Die Tabellen und Darstellungen enthalten Daten (ad 1) über die Änderungen der Frosthärte von Freiland- bzw. von Lagerungs-Proben während der Winterruhe, die jahrgangsbedingten Abweichungen derselben Sorten und die sortenbedingten Differenzen im Maß und Verlauf der Frosttoleranz; weiterhin (ad 2) über die standortbedingten Unterschiede bei derselben Sorte, die Wirkung von Nährstoffversorgung und Ertrag sowie schließlich die Wirkung von Erziehungsmethoden bzw. des Mikroklimas. Unter Beachtung des „Vorlebens" der Testreben und mit Hilfe eines sorgfältig und genau ausgearbeiteten Befrostungsprogrammes in Klimaprüfschränken können die Sorten ihren genetischen Eigenschaften entsprechend charakterisiert werden. Some aspects of frost hardiness tests during model experiments in climatic controlled chambers In order to avoid misinterpretation of early diagnostic results at breeding for cold hardiness, the winter hardiness of vines should not be considered as a static feature, but as a dynamically developing means of behaviour. The influence of the incidents during the vegetation period on the development - within the genetically limited frontiers - are at least as important as the hardening phase and the frost effect itself. From numerous cold hardiness investigations, the following was shown: • The changes in frost hardiness which reveal themselves during dormancy, • the effect of the ecological conditions of the vegetation period. The tables and illustrations give data (ad 1) on the changes in the cold hardiness from "field" and "stored" samples during the hibernation, the differences within the same cultivar in several years, and the differences in the amount and the trend of cold tolerance specific to each cultivar; and also (ad 2) on the differences within the same cultivar due to different locations, the influence of nutrition and yield, and finally the influence of methods of cultivation and of the micro climate. Taking into account the former life of the vines and using an exact, precisely drawn-up frosting programme in climatic controlled chambers, the varieties can be characterised according to their genetical features.

description: Most theoretical analysis for lifetime distribution explains origins of specific distribution based on independent failure. We develop a unified framework encompassing different lifetime distribution for failure-coupled network systems. We find three types of system lifetime distributions emerged from competence between system size N and failure coupling strength $ϕ$. System lifetime distribution can be describe by modified Weibull model, which degenerates into Gompertz model when N dominates and exponential distribution when $ϕ$ dominates. We derive asymptotic lifetime distribution. Specially, we derive a fundamental equation of thermodynamics for failure-coupled systems. Our study will help design highly reliable systems.
Gluconeogenese in reifenden Beeren von Vitis vinifera

description: Im Verlaufe der Reifeperiode 1973 wurde Traubenbeeren in wöchentlichen Intervallen Fumarsäure-2,3- 14C injiziert und nach einer Stoffwechselzeit von 6 Stunden der Einbau des Tracers in Malat sowie die Neutralfraktion untersucht. Es konnte nachgewiesen werden, daß - mit geringer Randomisierung des C-Skelettes des Präkursors - vorwiegend Äpfelsäure entsteht. Daneben erscheinen aber bis zu 17% der Radioaktivität in den Zuckern (Glucose, Fructose und Saccharose). Aufgrund der 14C-Verteilung im Glucosemolekül, welche ein Schwergewicht der Markierung in den C-Atomen 1, 2, 5 und 6 aufweist, kann auf die Existenz des „klassischen" Gluconeogeneseweges (mit Oxalacetat, Phosphoenolpyruvat und Phosphoglycerat als Intermediärprodukten) in Traubenbeeren geschlossen werden. Die Inkorporationsrate des biogenetisch aus '"C-Fumarat entstandenen 14C-Malats in die Neutralfraktion ist bei c a. 20 °C am höchsten. Dieses relativ tiefe Maximum dürfte auf die in diesem Temperaturbereich optimale Versorgung der Früchte mit stoffwechselaktiver Apfelsäure als Edukt für die Zuckersynthese zu erklären sein. Vergleiche der Zuckergehalte von Trauben mit bzw. ohne direkte Sonnenbestrahlung lassen während des Reifeverlaufes bei den Früchten an beschatteten und damit kühleren Standorten eine deutlich intensivere Zuckerbildung erkennen, so daß dadurch der zum Zeitpunkt der „Veraison" bestehende Unterschied im Zuckergehalt nahezu verschwindet. Es wird die Bedeutung der Gluconeogenese für diesen Ausgleich diskutiert. Gluconeogenesis in the ripening fruit of Vitis vinifera Fumaric acid-2,3-14C was applied to grape berries at weekly intervals and the incorporation of radioactivity into other acids and the neutral, watersoluble substances determined. Malic acid, predominantly labelled in the inner C-atoms, proved to be the main metabolic product, and up to 170/o of the 14C-activity of the extract was discovered in the neutral fraction. The t4C-glucose thus synthesized carried more label in the Cl/C2 and the C6/C5 positions than in the two central C-atoms. Based on these results it is concluded that the ripening fruit transforms acids into sugars by reactions involving a formal reversal of the glycolytic pathway. Incorporation of radioactivity of 14C-fumaric and -malic acids into sugars shows a temperature optimum of about 20 °C. Comparisons between the sugar concentrations of grapes growing in the sun or in the shade, indicate that the r a t e of sugar synthesis during the final ripening-stages is greater in the shade. Thus, the marked difference in sugar content at veraison disappears during maturation. The contribution of sugar synthesis from acids to the observed compensation is discussed.

On the basis of symptoms still visible on the specimens and of the herbarium's original explanatory notes, the diseased material was identified as being affected by fanleaf, yellow mosaic and leafroll. Rebvirosen in einem sizilianischen Herbarium aus dem letzten Jahrhundert Getrocknete Exemplare von Reben, die zwischen 1880 und 1886 in Sizilien für ein von Dr. FRANCESCO MINA PALUMBO, einem Arzt aus Castelbuono (Palermo), begründetes Herbarium gesammelt worden waren, zeigten verschiedene morphologische und farbliche Modifikationen. Die noch sichtbaren Symptome an den Herbarexemplaren erlauben zusammen mit den erläuternden Originalnotizen eine Diagnose auf Befall durch Reisigkrankheit, Gelbmosaik und Blattrollkrankheit.

description: The spatiotemporal evolution of the out-of-time-order correlator (OTOC) measures the propagation and scrambling of local quantum information. For the transverse field Ising model with open boundaries, the local operator $σ^{x}$ shows an interesting picture of the ground state OTOC where the local information gets scrambled throughout the entire system and, more strikingly, starts `unscrambling' upon reflection at the other end. Earlier discussions of OTOCs did not explain the physical processes responsible for such scrambling and unscrambling of information. We explicitly show that in the paramagnetic phase, the scrambling and unscrambling is due to the scattering of a pair of low-energy spin-flip excitations, even in the presence of small interactions. In the ferromagnetic phase the same phenomena are explained by the motion of a domain-wall excitation. Thus, in different limits of the system parameters, we have provided a simple and almost complete understanding of the space-time pictures of the OTOCs, including the unscrambling, in terms of the low-energy excitations like one and two spin-flips or a single domain wall.

description: This article examines the judicial review used by the CJEU in assessing the ECB's non-standard monetary policy measures and the dispute between the German Constitutional Court and the CJEU over the standard of review to be used. In addition, it discusses the possibility of a future clash between the two courts in the post Covid-19 era. It first analyses the type of judicial control carried out by the CJEU during the Euro crisis in the Gauweiler and Weiss cases. It then explores the reasons for criticism of the CJEU reasoning by the doctrine. During the pandemic period the ECB has taken unprecedented steps and increased its monetary policy instruments, such as the Pandemic Emergency Purchase Programme (PEPP). The potential confrontation between the GCC and the ECB over PEPP is, however, deemed limited. It concludes analysing the possibility to add a court-appointed expert to the CJEU's decision-making process. Indeed, the presence of an expert could improve judicial review and increase the depth of the judgments also against national courts that have asked for preliminary ruling. However, the independence of the ECB should not be affected.

description: Advancements in LiDAR technology have led to more cost-effective production while simultaneously improving precision and resolution. As a result, LiDAR has become integral to vehicle localization, achieving centimeter-level accuracy through techniques like Normal Distributions Transform (NDT) and other advanced 3D registration algorithms. Nonetheless, these approaches are reliant on high-definition 3D point cloud maps, the creation of which involves significant expenditure. When such maps are unavailable or lack sufficient features for 3D registration algorithms, localization accuracy diminishes, posing a risk to road safety. To address this, we proposed to use LiDAR-equipped roadside unit and Vehicle-to-Infrastructure (V2I) communication to accurately estimate the connected autonomous vehicle's position and help the vehicle when its self-localization is not accurate enough. Our simulation results indicate that this method outperforms traditional NDT scan matching-based approaches in terms of localization accuracy.

description: In this paper, it was performed a numerical simulation of the spread of a pollutant - carbon dioxide from the chimneys of a thermal power plant. To determine the correctness of the models, a test problem was used, the results of which were compared with obtained numerical and experimental values. These models were used for a 3D model on a real scale of Ekibastuz SDP P, the largest thermal power station in Kazakhstan. A study on the spread of pollutants was performed within 24 hours. In addition, in the model, environmental conditions close to the real ones were used - a variable direction of the wind, a variable humidity of the ambient air, and different temperatures, which vary depending on the time of day. The results can be used in the future to study the problem of environmental pollution and reduce the consequences of the environmental situation as a whole.

description: Rydberg quantum sensors are sensitive to radio-frequency fields across an ultra-wide frequency range spanning megahertz to terahertz electromagnetic waves resonant with Rydberg atom dipole transitions. Here we demonstrate an atomic millimeter-wave heterodyne receiver employing continuous-wave lasers stabilized to an optical frequency comb. We characterize the atomic receiver in the W-band at signal frequency of $f$=95.992512~GHz, and demonstrate a sensitivity of 7.9$μ$V/m/$\sqrt{Hz}$ and a linear dynamic range of 70dB. We develop frequency selectivity metrics for atomic receivers and demonstrate their use in our millimeter-wave receiver, including signal rejection levels at signal frequency offsets $Δf/f$ = 10$^{-4}$, 10$^{-5}$ and 10$^{-6}$, 3-dB, 6-dB, 9-dB and 12-dB bandwidths, filter roll-off, and shape factor analysis. Our work represents an important advance towards future studies and applications of atomic receiver science and technology and in weak millimeter-wave and high-frequency signal detection.

description: The work considers an open qutrit system whose density matrix $ρ(t)$ evolution is governed by the Gorini-Kossakowski-Sudarshan-Lindblad master equation with simultaneous coherent (in the Hamiltonian) and incoherent (in the superoperator of dissipation) controls. Incoherent control makes the decoherence rates depending on time in a specific controlled manner and within clear physical mechanics. We consider the problem of maximizing the Hilbert-Schmidt overlap between the system's final state $ρ(T)$ and a given target state $ρ_{\rm target}$ and the problem of minimizing the squared Hilbert-Schmidt distance between these states. For the both problems, we perform their realifications, derive the corresponding Pontryagin function, adjount system (with the two cases of transversality conditions in view of the two terminal objectives), and gradients of the objectives, adapt the one-, two-, three-step gradient projection methods. For the problem of maximizing the overlap, we also adapt the regularized first-order Krotov method. In the numerical experiments, we analyze, first, the methods' operation and, second, the obtained control processes, in respect to considering the environment as a resource via incoherent control.

description: We Need to Talk About the Rule of Law is back for a second season that focuses on the impact of rule of law erosions on attorneys. In the first episode, we talk to MIKOŁAJ PIETRZAK. He is an attorney and the Dean of the Warsaw Bar Association, which is the oldest professional legal association in Poland and the administrative association of attorneys in Warsaw. That places him right in the middle of the rule of law crackdown that has been going on in Poland under the ruling PiS party since 2015. In our conversation, he shows us how a such a crackdown looks like in a country of the European Union – including some surprising insights into the immense range of consequences it had throughout the legal profession. Mr Pietrzak’s analysis of the dire challenges attorneys face in Poland – exemplified by disciplinary proceedings against them as well as the horrifying situation on the border to Belarus – leads him to a message to European citizens: We need to protect the rule of law every day, through participation in civic society as well as democratic choices in elections.

description: In this paper, we study a faithful translation of a two-player quantum Morra game, which builds on previous work by including the classical game as a special case. We propose a natural deformation of the game in the quantum regime in which Alice has a winning advantage, breaking the balance of the classical game. A Nash equilibrium can be found in some cases by employing a pure strategy, which is impossible in the classical game where a mixed strategy is always required. We prepared our states using photonic qubits on a linear optics setup, with an average deviation less than 2% with respect to the measured outcome probabilities. Finally, we discuss potential applications of the quantum Morra game to the study of quantum information and communication.

Mining of Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) and Affinity-Purification Mass Spectrometry (AP-MS) data to identify chromatin targets of epigenetic regulators
Creators: name: Lukauskas, Saulius
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: In eukaryotes, modifications of DNA molecules and core histone proteins regulate core nuclear functions such as DNA transcription, DNA replication, and DNA repair. Individual modifications are associated with regions of active and repressed transcription, and their readers, writers, and erasers are known. In combination, these modifications are assumed to form a ‘code’ describing the chromatin regulation. The specifics of this combinatorial ‘code’, however, are still unknown. Recent advances in technology have allowed this regulation by nucleosomal modifications to be studied experimentally in high throughput. Such studies, however, face an information overload as more data is being produced than can be analysed. In this thesis, we attempt to provide methods to study this large-scale data globally. To do this, we describe a number of data mining approaches to extract, summarise and link the data in order to elucidate the language of nucleosomal modifications. We base our analyses on a novel SILAC nucleosome affinity purification (SNAP) dataset produced in our laboratory, as well as data from Next-Generation Sequencing (NGS) studies. We apply a modified CLR network inference algorithm to predict novel interactions between epigenetic readers. We apply Factor Analysis (FA) to describe the key constituents of the code that drive the epigenetic reader binding. We further show that linear combination of individual responses to modifications can describe a significant proportion of the reader behaviour in vitro, and use NGS datasets to verify them in vivo. We find discrepancies between the in vitro and in vivo results and use Bernoulli Mixture Models (BMM) to analyse them. This provides us with a direction to improve the analysis and experimental methods. Together, the results presented in this thesis provide a global overview of major aspects of the regulation by nucleosomal modifications, which brings us a step forward towards cracking the histone code.

description: Quantum magnonics, an emerging field focusing on the study of magnons for quantum applications, requires precise measurement methods capable of resolving single magnons. Existing techniques introduce additional dissipation channels and are not apt for magnets in free space. Brillouin light scattering (BLS) is a well-established technique for probing the magnetization known for its high sensitivity and temporal resolution. The coupling between magnons and photons is controlled by a laser input, so it can be switched off when a measurement is not needed. In this article, we theoretically investigate the efficacy of BLS for quantum tomography of magnons. We model a finite optomagnonic waveguide, including the optical noise added by the dielectric, to calculate the signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). We find that the SNR is typically low due to a small magneto-optical coupling; nevertheless, it can be significantly enhanced by injecting squeezed vacuum into the waveguide. We reconstruct the density matrix of the magnons from the statistics of the output photons using a maximum likelihood estimate. The classical component of a magnon state, defined as the regions of positive Wigner function, can be reconstructed with a high accuracy while the non-classical component necessitates either a higher SNR or a larger dataset. The latter requires more compact data structures and advanced algorithms for post-processing. The SNR is limited partially by the input laser power that can be increased by designing the optomagnonic cavity with a heat sink.

description: In solid state systems, group representation theory is powerful in characterizing the behavior of quasiparticles, notably the energy degeneracy. While conventional group theory is effective in answering yes-or-no questions related to symmetry breaking, its application to determining the magnitude of energy splitting resulting from symmetry lowering is limited. Here, we propose a theory on quasisymmetry and near degeneracy, thereby expanding the applicability of group theory to address questions regarding large-or-small energy splitting. Defined within the degenerate subspace of an unperturbed Hamiltonian, quasisymmetries form an enlarged symmetry group eliminating the first-order splitting. This framework ensures that the magnitude of splitting arises as a second-order effect of symmetry-lowering perturbations, such as external fields and spin-orbit coupling. We systematically tabulate the quasisymmetry groups within 32 crystallographic point groups and find all the possible unitary quasisymmetry group structures regarding double degeneracy. Applying our theory to the realistic material AgLa, we predict a "quasi-Dirac semimetal" phase characterized by two tiny-gap band anticrossings.

description: Regular black hole metrics involve a universal, mass-independent regulator that can be up to O(700) km while remaining consistent with terrestrial tests of Newtonian gravity and astrophysical tests of general relativistic orbits. However, for such large values of the regulator scale, the metric describes a compact, astrophysical-mass object with no horizon rather than a black hole. We note that allowing the regulator to have a nontrivial mass dependence preserves the horizon, while allowing large, percent-level effects in black hole observables. By considering the deflection angle of light and the black hole shadow, we demonstrate this possibility explicitly.

Heavy vector-like quarks decaying to exotic scalars: a case study with triplets

description: We investigate the pair production of a vector-like quark triplet with hypercharge 5/3 decaying into top quark and a complex scalar triplet with hypercharge 1 at the LHC. This novel scenario, featuring particles with exotic charges - two quarks with charge 8/3 and 5/3 and a scalar with charge 2 - serves as a unique window to models based on the framework of partial compositeness, where these particles naturally emerge as bound states around the TeV scale. Leveraging on the LHC data we establish exclusion limits on the masses of the vector-like quark and the scalar triplet. Subsequently, we design an analysis strategy aimed at improving sensitivity in the region which is still allowed. Our analysis focuses on two specific regions in the parameter space: the first entails a large mass gap between the vector-like quarks and the scalars, so that the vector-like quarks can decay into the scalars; the second involves a small mass gap, such that this decay is forbidden. To simplify the parameter space, both vector-like quarks and scalars are assumed to be degenerate or almost degenerate within the triplets, such that chain decays between fermions and scalars are suppressed. As a result, we found that final states characterized by a same-sign lepton pair, multiple jets, and high net transverse momentum (i.e. effective mass) will play a pivotal role to unveil this model and, more in general, models characterised by multiple vector-like quarks around the same mass scale during the high luminosity LHC phase.

description: Sustainable software ecosystems are difficult to build, and require concerted effort, community norms and collaborations. In science it is especially important to establish communities in which faculty, staff, students and open-source professionals work together and treat software as a first-class product of scientific investigation---just as mathematics is treated in the physical sciences. Kitware has a rich history of establishing collaborative projects in the science, engineering and medical research fields, and continues to work on improving that model as new technologies and approaches become available. This approach closely follows and is enhanced by the movement towards practicing open, reproducible research in the sciences where data, source code, methodology and approach are all available so that complex experiments can be independently reproduced and verified.
The targum (1920:June 16)
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: Targum Association
Year: 1920

description: Some University historians indicate that the Targum was first published as an annual in 1867, but of this we have no extant evidence. In January 1869, the Targum as we now know it, made its appearance as a monthly paper that concerned itself with student “literary contributions” and college news as well as serving as a vehicle for bringing news to alumni and the general public. The newspaper, which originally was for sale, varied in frequency over the years as did its title (The Targum, Rutgers Targum, Rutgers Daily Targum, and Daily Targum). The newspaper has continuously been published since 1869 with the exception of 19 months during the second world war, between February 1944 and October 1945. The Targum was published by the students of Rutgers College, and later Rutgers University—New Brunswick represented through the years as the Targum Association, Rutgers Targum Association, and Rutgers College Targum. As a student organization, the Targum operated under the oversight of the dean of students and student government but in October 1980, the Targum became an independent college paper.

description: Ensembles of particles governed by quantum mechanical laws exhibit fascinating emergent behavior. Atomic quantum gases, liquid helium, and electrons in quantum materials all show distinct properties due to their composition and interactions. Quantum degenerate samples of bosonic dipolar molecules promise the realization of novel phases of matter with tunable dipolar interactions and new avenues for quantum simulation and quantum computation. However, rapid losses, even when reduced through collisional shielding techniques, have so far prevented cooling to a Bose-Einstein condensate (BEC). In this work, we report on the realization of a BEC of dipolar molecules. By strongly suppressing two- and three-body losses via enhanced collisional shielding, we evaporatively cool sodium-cesium (NaCs) molecules to quantum degeneracy. The BEC reveals itself via a bimodal distribution and a phase-space-density exceeding one. BECs with a condensate fraction of 60(10) % and a temperature of 6(2) nK are created and found to be stable with a lifetime close to 2 seconds. This work opens the door to the exploration of dipolar quantum matter in regimes that have been inaccessible so far, promising the creation of exotic dipolar droplets, self-organized crystal phases, and dipolar spin liquids in optical lattices.
