description: Одним из эффективных подходов к оценке генетического разнообразия сельскохозяй-ственных животных является исследование полиморфизма митохондриальной ДНК. За рубе-жом ведутся активные работы по секвенированию полных митохондриальных геномов овец, в то время как российские породы остаются без должного внимания. В настоящей работе был проведен анализ полной последовательности митохондриального гена CytB. Все исследуемые породы овец характеризовались высоким гаплотипическим (Hd = 0,500–1,000) и нуклеотид-ным ( = 0,00088–0,00789) разнообразием. Всего было идентифицировано 31 гаплотип и вы-явлены четыре гаплогруппы овец (A, B, C и D). Полученные результаты исследования дают представление о понимании происхождения и миграции российских пород овец.

description: The assessment of the perceptual quality of digital images is becoming increasingly important as a result of the widespread use of digital multimedia devices. Smartphones and high-speed internet are just two examples of technologies that have multiplied the amount of multimedia content available. Thus, obtaining a representative dataset, which is required for objective quality assessment training, is a significant challenge. The Blind Image Quality Assessment Database, BIQ2021, is presented in this article. By selecting images with naturally occurring distortions and reliable labeling, the dataset addresses the challenge of obtaining representative images for no-reference image quality assessment. The dataset consists of three sets of images: those taken without the intention of using them for image quality assessment, those taken with intentionally introduced natural distortions, and those taken from an open-source image-sharing platform. It is attempted to maintain a diverse collection of images from various devices, containing a variety of different types of objects and varying degrees of foreground and background information. To obtain reliable scores, these images are subjectively scored in a laboratory environment using a single stimulus method. The database contains information about subjective scoring, human subject statistics, and the standard deviation of each image. The dataset's Mean Opinion Scores (MOS) make it useful for assessing visual quality. Additionally, the proposed database is used to evaluate existing blind image quality assessment approaches, and the scores are analyzed using Pearson and Spearman's correlation coefficients. The image database and MOS are freely available for use and benchmarking.

description: The real-time analysis of infectious disease surveillance data, e.g., in the form of a time-series of reported cases or fatalities, is essential in obtaining situational awareness about the current dynamics of an adverse health event such as the COVID-19 pandemic. This real-time analysis is complicated by reporting delays that lead to underreporting of the number of events for the most recent time points (e.g., days or weeks). This can lead to misconceptions by the interpreter, e.g., the media or the public, as was the case with the time-series of reported fatalities during the COVID-19 pandemic in Sweden. Nowcasting methods provide real-time estimates of the complete number of events using the incomplete time-series of currently reported events by using information about the reporting delays from the past. Here, we consider nowcasting the number of COVID-19-related fatalities in Sweden. We propose a flexible Bayesian approach, extending existing nowcasting methods by incorporating regression components to accommodate additional information provided by leading indicators such as time-series of the number of reported cases and ICU admissions. By a retrospective evaluation, we show that the inclusion of ICU admissions as a leading signal improved the nowcasting performance of case fatalities for COVID-19 in Sweden compared to existing methods.

To show the practical relevance, we apply this interconnection to a model system of an actively cooled gas turbine blade. We also show that this interconnection relation behaves well with respect to a discretization in finite element space, ensuring its usability for practical applications.

description: The COVID-19 pandemic has had high mortality rates in the elderly and frail worldwide, particularly in care homes. This is driven by the difficulty of isolating care homes from the wider community, the large population sizes within care facilities (relative to typical households), and the age/frailty of the residents. To quantify the mortality risk posed by disease, the case fatality risk (CFR) is an important tool. This quantifies the proportion of cases that result in death. Throughout the pandemic, CFR amongst care home residents in England has been monitored closely. To estimate CFR, we apply both novel and existing methods to data on deaths in care homes, collected by Public Health England and the Care Quality Commission. We compare these different methods, evaluating their relative strengths and weaknesses. Using these methods, we estimate temporal trends in the instantaneous CFR (at both daily and weekly resolutions) and the overall CFR across the whole of England, and dis-aggregated at regional level. We also investigate how the CFR varies based on age and on the type of care required, dis-aggregating by whether care homes include nursing staff and by age of residents. This work has contributed to the summary of measures used for monitoring the UK epidemic.

description: The Galactic transient V1309 Sco was the result of a merger in a low-mass star system, while V838 Mon was thought to be a similar merger event from a more massive B-type progenitor. In this paper we study an optical/IR transient discovered in the nearby galaxy NGC4490, which appeared similar to these merger events (unobscured progenitor, irregular multi-peaked light curve, increasingly red color, similar optical spectrum, IR excess at late times), but which had a higher peak luminosity and longer duration in outburst. NGC4490-OT has less in common with the class of SN~2008S-like transients. A progenitor detected in pre-eruption HST images, combined with upper limits in the IR, requires a luminous and blue progenitor that has faded in late-time HST images. The same source was detected by Spitzer and ground-based data as a luminous IR transient, indicating a transition to a self-obscured state qualitatively similar to the evolution seen in other stellar mergers and in LBVs. The post-outburst dust-obscured source is too luminous and too warm at late times to be explained with an IR echo, suggesting that the object survived the event. The luminosity of the enshrouded IR source is similar to that of the progenitor. Compared to proposed merger events, the more massive progenitor of NGC4490-OT seems to extend a correlation between stellar mass and peak luminosity, and may suggest that both of these correlate with duration. We show that spectra of NGC4490-OT and V838 Mon also resemble light-echo spectra of eta Car, prompting us to speculate that eta Car may be an extreme extension of this phenomenon.

 Type (neotype, designated here):—[LOCATION UNKNOWN]. Orto Botanico di Palermo, A. Todaro s.n. (PAL No. 102.506 [digital image!]), Fig. 3.
 Protologue citation:—“Questa specie è stata lungo tempo coltivata nel Real Orto col nome di Duranta Plumeri, poichè a quanto pare la determinazione delle specie di questo genere erasi fatta secondo lo Sprengel.”
 Notes:—The specimen housed at PAL whose label reads “ Duranta stenostachya / D. Plumierii” matches both the name under which Todaro’s species D. stenostachya was cultivated in the botanical garden, and the calligraphy of the author. This specimen shares all the morphological features described in the protologue so it is here selected as a neotype.
 Sanders (1989) said the type of this species is a plate presented in the work published by Todaro in 1860. It is worth mentioning that this work does not have any plate and that this drawing was published by Todaro in a later work (1875: 9, Tab. III). The plate which Sanders referred to as type is not suitable because it was published after the protologue therefore it is not original material. (Art. 9.3 of the ICN, McNeill et al. 2012).
 Concerning the original location of this species there are different opinions. There is no reference to the place of origin in the protologue, but Todaro said in a later work that this plant came from Brazil (1875). Bailey (1949) also mentions that it is native to Brazil. However, there are no records of D. stenostachya in Brazil until today. Caro (1956) is the first author that points out Martinica as a possible distribution. More recently, Sanders (1989) and AcevedoRodriguez & Strong (2012) indicate the species is endemic to Lesser Antilles.

description: We present a catalog of 840 X-ray sources and first results from a 100 ks Chandra X-ray Observatory imaging study of the filamentary infrared dark cloud G014.225$-$00.506, which forms the central regions of a larger cloud complex known as the M17 southwest extension (M17 SWex). In addition to the rich population of protostars and young stellar objects with dusty circumstellar disks revealed by Spitzer Space Telescope archival data, we discover a population of X-ray-emitting, intermediate-mass pre--main-sequence stars (IMPS) that lack infrared excess emission from circumstellar disks. We model the infrared spectral energy distributions of this source population to measure its mass function and place new constraints on the inner dust disk destruction timescales for 2-8 $M_{\odot}$ stars. We also place a lower limit on the star formation rate (SFR) and find that it is quite high ($\dot{M}\ge 0.007~M_{\odot}$ yr$^{-1}$), equivalent to several Orion Nebula Clusters in G14.225$-$0.506 alone, and likely accelerating. The cloud complex has not produced a population of massive, O-type stars commensurate with its SFR. This absence of very massive (${\ge}20~M_{\odot}$) stars suggests that either (1) M17 SWex is an example of a distributed mode of star formation that will produce a large OB association dominated by intermediate-mass stars but relatively few massive clusters, or (2) the massive cores are still in the process of accreting sufficient mass to form massive clusters hosting O stars.

The analysis implements a spatial template fit of SPI data and an improved instrumental background model. We characterize the contribution of Primordial Black Holes (PBH) as dark matter (DM) candidates evaporating into $\mathcal{O}$(1) MeV photons by including, for the first time, the spatial distribution of their signal into the fitting procedure. No PBH signal is detected, and we set the strongest limit on PBH DM for masses up to $4 \times 10^{17}$ g, significantly closing in into the so-called asteroid mass range.

description: We propose a simple architecture based on multimode quantum memories for collective readout of classical information keyed using a pair coherent states, exemplified by the well-known binary phase shift keying format. Such a configuration enables demonstration of the superadditivity effect in classical communication over quantum channels, where the transmission rate becomes enhanced through joint detection applied to multiple channel uses. The proposed scheme relies on the recently introduced idea to prepare Hadamard sequences of input symbols that are mapped by a linear optical transformation onto the pulse position modulation format [Guha, S. {\em Phys. Rev. Lett.}\ {\bf 2011}, {\em 106}, 240502]. We analyze two versions of readout based on direct detection and an optional Dolinar receiver which implements the minimum-error measurement for individual detection of a binary coherent state alphabet.

description: Levels of sociality in nature vary widely. Some species are solitary; others live in family groups; some form complex multi-family societies. Increased levels of social interaction can allow for the spread of useful innovations and beneficial information, but can also facilitate the spread of harmful contagions, such as infectious diseases. It is natural to assume that these contagion processes shape the evolution of complex social systems, but an explicit account of the dynamics of sociality under selection pressure imposed by contagion remains elusive. We consider a model for the evolution of sociality strategies in the presence of both a beneficial and costly contagion. We study the dynamics of this model at three timescales: using a susceptible-infectious-susceptible (SIS) model to describe contagion spread for given sociality strategies, a replicator equation to study the changing fractions of two different levels of sociality, and an adaptive dynamics approach to study the long-time evolution of the population level of sociality. For a wide range of assumptions about the benefits and costs of infection, we identify a social dilemma: the evolutionarily-stable sociality strategy (ESS) is distinct from the collective optimum -- the level of sociality that would be best for all individuals. In particular, the ESS level of social interaction is greater (respectively less) than the social optimum when the good contagion spreads more (respectively less) readily than the bad contagion. Our results shed light on how contagion shapes the evolution of social interaction, but reveals that evolution may not necessarily lead populations to social structures that are good for any or all.

description: We explore the inelastic electron scattering cross section off a quantum dot close to the Stoner instability. We focus on the regime of strong Coulomb blockade in which the scattering cross section is dominated by the cotunneling processes. For large enough exchange interaction the quantum dot acquires a finite total spin in the ground state. In this, so-called mesoscopic Stoner instability, regime we find that at low enough temperatures the inelastic scattering cross section (including the contribution due to an elastic electron spin-flip) for an electron with a low energy with respect to the chemical potential is different from the case of a magnetic impurity with the same spin. This difference stems from (i) presence of a low-lying many-body states of a quantum dot and (ii) the correlations of the tunneling amplitudes. Our results provide a possible explanation for absence of the dephasing rate saturation at low temperatures in recent experiment [N. Teneh, A. Yu. Kuntsevich, V. M. Pudalov, and M. Reznikov, Phys. Rev. Lett. 109, 226403 (2012)] in which existence of local spin droplets in disordered electron liquid has been unraveled.

description: Numerical solution of partial differential equations on parallel computers using domain decomposition usually requires synchronization and communication among the processors. These operations often have a significant overhead in terms of time and energy. In this paper, we propose communication-efficient parallel algorithms for solving partial differential equations that alleviate this overhead. First, we describe an asynchronous algorithm that removes the requirement of synchronization and checks for termination in a distributed fashion while maintaining the provision to restart iterations if necessary. Then, we build on the asynchronous algorithm to propose an event-triggered communication algorithm that communicates the boundary values to neighboring processors only at certain iterations, thereby reducing the number of messages while maintaining similar accuracy of solution. We demonstrate our algorithms on a successive over-relaxation solver for the Pressure Poisson equation arising from variable density incompressible multiphase flows in 3-D and show that our algorithms improve time and energy efficiency.

description: This work presents a new approach to efficiently model the cathode in the moving boundary value problem of electrochemical machining. Until recently, the process simulation with finite elements had the drawback of remeshing required by the changing surface geometries. This disadvantage was overcome by a novel model formulation for the anodic dissolution that utilizes effective material parameters as well as the dissolution level as an internal variable and, thereby, does not require remeshing. Now, we extend this concept to model arbitrarily shaped and moving cathodes. Two methodologies are investigated to describe the time varying position of the cathode. In the first approach, we change the electric conductivity of elements within the cathode and, in a second approach, we apply Dirichlet boundary conditions on the nodes of corresponding elements. For both methods, elements on the cathode's surface are treated with effective material parameters. This procedure allows for the efficient simulation of industrially relevant, complex geometries without mesh adaptation. The model's performance is validated by means of analytical, numerical and experimental results from the literature. The short computation times make the approach interesting for industrial applications.

description: Hydrological post-processing using quantile regression algorithms constitutes a prime means of estimating the uncertainty of hydrological predictions. Nonetheless, conventional large-sample theory for quantile regression does not apply sufficiently far in the tails of the probability distribution of the dependent variable. To overcome this limitation that could be crucial when the interest lies on flood events, hydrological post-processing through extremal quantile regression is introduced here for estimating the extreme quantiles of hydrological model's responses. In summary, the new hydrological post-processing method exploits properties of the Hill's estimator from the extreme value theory to extrapolate quantile regression's predictions to high quantiles. As a proof of concept, the new method is here tested in post-processing daily streamflow simulations provided by three process-based hydrological models for 180 basins in the contiguous United States (CONUS) and is further compared to conventional quantile regression. With this large-scale comparison, it is demonstrated that hydrological post-processing using conventional quantile regression severely underestimates high quantiles (at the quantile level 0.9999) compared to hydrological post-processing using extremal quantile regression, although both methods are equivalent at lower quantiles (at the quantile level 0.9700). Moreover, it is shown that, in the same context, extremal quantile regression estimates the high predictive quantiles with efficiency that is, on average, equivalent in the large-sample study for the three process-based hydrological models.

 Type (lectotype, designated here):— PERU. Cuzco, Upa blanca, 1923, F. L. Herrera 85 (NY barcode 137497 [digital image!], fragment ex B). Epytype (designated here):— PERU. Departamento de Junín, valle del Urubamba, cerca de Yucay, Dic. 1926, F. L. Herrera 1461 (US No. 1283237!), Fig. 5.
 Protologue citation:—“ PERU — CUZCO: Upa Blanca, near Cuzco, alt. 3400–3600 m., Fortunato L. Herrera 85, TYPE; in the herbarium of the Botanisches Museum at Berlin, received there in February, 1923.”
 Notes:— The protologue information of Duranta armata says: ‘ Upa Blanca, near Cuzco, alt. 3400–3600 m., F. L. Herrera 85. TYPE; in the herbarium of the Botanisches Museum at Berlin, received there in February, 1923’. No material of Duranta armata with the given data was found in B. As it is known, a large part of the collections in B was destroyed in 1943 during Second World War and if the specimen was there as indicated by Moldenke in the protologue, it was likely to be among the destroyed material (R. Lücking & R. Vogt, pers. comm.). No other original material was located since there were no duplicates. However, there are fragments removed from the destroyed holotype by Moldenke during his visit to the herbarium in 1936 as well as a photograph of the holotype which had also been taken by him and his wife. Moldenke mentions in the manuscript of the protologue that a photo is housed in NY (it is currently housed there; T. Wendt, pers. comm.) and another in Z (it was not found). The fragments of the holotype are mounted in a herbarium sheet in NY and are labeled as “fragment of type!”. This material is an isotype and in the absence of the original holotype has priority in the designation of a lectotype (J. McNeill, pers. comm.). Thus, the specimen housed in NY is here selected as a lectotype.
 Since the fragments cannot be critically identified for purposes of the precise application of the name to a taxon, an epitype is simultaneously designated supporting that lectotype (Art. 9.8 of the ICN, McNeill et al. 2012). The specimen above mentioned is here chosen as epitype given its congruence with the description in the protologue.

description: We propose dynamical protocols allowing for the engineered realization of topological surface states in isolation. Our approach builds on the concept of synthetic dimensions generated by driving systems with incommensurate frequencies. As a concrete example, we consider 3d topological surface states of a 4d quantum Hall insulator via a $(1+2_\mathrm{syn})$-dimensional protocol. We present first principle analytical calculations demonstrating that no supporting 4d bulk phase is required for a 3d topological surface phase. We back the analytical approach by numerical simulations and present a detailed blueprint for the realization of the synthetic surface phase with existing quantum linear optical network device technology. We then discuss generalizations, including a proposal for a quantum simulator of the $(1+1_\mathrm{syn})$ dimensional surface of the common 3d topological insulator.

description: Many galaxies are expected to harbor binary supermassive black holes (SMBHs) in their centers. Their interaction with the surrounding gas results in accretion and exchange of angular momentum via tidal torques, facilitating binary inspiral. Here we explore the non-trivial coupling between these two processes and analyze how the global properties of externally supplied circumbinary disks depend on the binary accretion rate. By formulating our results in terms of the angular momentum flux driven by internal stresses, we come up with a very simple classification of the possible global disk structures, which differ from the standard constant $\dot M$ accretion disk solution. Suppression of accretion by the binary tides, leading to a significant mass accumulation in the inner disk, accelerates binary inspiral. We show that once the disk region strongly perturbed by the viscously transmitted tidal torque exceeds the binary semi-major axis, the binary can merge in less than its mass-doubling time due to accretion. Thus, unlike the inspirals driven by stellar scattering, the gas-assisted merger can occur even if the binary is embedded in a relatively low mass disk (lower than its own mass). This is important for resolving the "last parsec" problem for SMBH binaries and understanding powerful gravitational wave sources in the Universe. We argue that the enhancement of accretion by the binary found in some recent simulations cannot persist for a long time and should not affect the long-term orbital inspiral. We also review the existing simulations of the SMBH binary-disk coupling and propose a numerical setup, which is particularly well suited for verifying our theoretical predictions.

description: Spin torque nano-oscillator has been extensively studied both theoretically and experimentally in recent decades due to its potential applications in future microwave communication technology and neuromorphic computing. In this work, we present a skyrmion-based spin torque nano-oscillator driven by a spatially uniform direct current, where the skyrmion is confined by two pinning sites. Different from other skyrmion-based oscillators that arise from the circular motion or the breathing mode of a skyrmion, the steady-state oscillatory motions are produced by the periodic deformation of an elongated skyrmion. Through micromagnetic simulations, we find that the oscillation frequency depends on the driving current, the damping constant as well as the characteristics of pinning sites. This nonlinear response to direct current turns out to be universal and can also appear in the case of antiskyrmions, skyrmioniums and domain walls. Furthermore, the elongated skyrmion possesses a rectangle-like domain wall, which could also serve as a magnonic waveguide. Utilizing the propagation of spin waves in this waveguide, we propose a device design of logic gate and demonstrate its performance.

description: Microwave photonics (MWP) has adopted a number of important concepts and technologies over the recent pasts, including photonic integration, versatile programmability, and techniques for enhancing key radio frequency performance metrics such as the noise figure and the dynamic range. However, to date, these aspects have not been achieved simultaneously in a single circuit. Here, we demonstrate, for the first time, a multi-functional integrated microwave photonic circuit that enables on-chip programmable filtering functions while achieving record-high key radio frequency metrics of >120 dB.Hz dynamic range and 15 dB of noise figure that are previously unreachable. We unlock this unique feature by versatile complex spectrum tailoring using an all integrated modulation transformer and a double injection ring resonator as a multi-function optical filtering component. This work breaks the conventional and fragmented approach of integration, functionality and performance that currently prevents the adoption of integrated MWP systems in real applications.
