description: The Josephson diode (JD) is a non-reciprocal circuit element that supports a larger critical current in one direction compared to the other. This effect has gained a growing interest because of promising applications in superconducting electronic circuits with low power consumption. Some implementations of a JD rely on breaking the inversion symmetry in the material used to realize Josephson junctions (JJs), but two recent theoretical proposals have suggested that the effect can also be engineered by combining two JJs hosting highly transmitting Andreev bound states in a Superconducting Quantum Interference Device (SQUID) at a small, but finite flux bias [1, 2]. We have realized a SQUID with two JJs fabricated in a proximitized InAs two-dimensional electron gas (2DEG). We demonstrate gate control of the diode efficiency from zero up to around 30% at specific flux bias values which comes close to the maximum of approxiomately 40% predicated in Ref. [1]. The key ingredients to the JD effect in the SQUID arrangement is the presence of highly transmitting channels in the JJs, a flux bias and an asymmetry between the two SQUID arms.

description: Chiral effective field theory ($χ$EFT) provides a framework for obtaining internucleon interactions in a systematically improvable fashion from first principles, while also providing for the derivation of consistent electroweak current operators. In this work, we apply consistently derived interactions and currents towards calculating the magnetic dipole moments of the $A=3$ systems Triton and Helium-3. We focus here on LENPIC interactions obtained using semilocal coordinate-space (SCS) regularization. Starting from the momentum-space representation of the LENPIC $χ$EFT vector current, we derive the SCS-regularized magnetic dipole operator up through N2LO. We then carry out no-core shell model calculations for Triton and Helium-3 systems, using the SCS LENPIC interaction at N2LO in $χ$EFT, and evaluate the magnetic dipole moments obtained using the consistently derived one-nucleon and two-nucleon electromagnetic currents. As anticipated by prior results with $χ$EFT currents, the current corrections through N2LO provide improved, but not yet complete, agreement with experiment for the Triton and Helium-3 magnetic dipole moments.

description: An important stage in the evolution of massive binaries is the formation of a compact object in the system. It is believed that in some cases a momentum kick is imparted to the newly born object, changing the orbital parameters of the binary, such as eccentricity and orbital period, and even acquiring an asynchronous orbit between its components. In this situation, tides play a central role in the evolution of these binaries. In this work we aim to study how the orbital parameters of a massive binary change after the formation of a compact object when the stellar spin of the non-degenerate companion is not aligned with the orbital angular momentum. We used MESA, which we modified to be able to evolve binaries with different values of the inclination between the orbital planes before and just after the formation of the compact object. These modifications to the equations solved by the MESA code are extended to the case of non-solid body rotation. We find that the impact of having different initial inclinations is mostly present in the evolution towards an equilibrium state that is independent of the inclination. If the binary separation is small enough such that the interaction happens when the star is burning hydrogen in its core, this state is reached before the beginning of a mass-transfer phase, while for a wider binary not all conditions characterizing the equilibrium are met. These findings show that including the inclination in the equations of tidal evolution to a binary after a kick is imparted onto a newly born compact object changes the evolution of some parameters, such as the eccentricity and the spin period of the star, depending on how large this inclination is. Moreover, these results can be used to match the properties of observed X-ray binaries to estimate the strength of the momentum kick.

description: Surgical access complications during endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) are reported relatively frequent. HARMONIC FOCUS® (HF; Ethicon EndoSurgery Inc., Cincinnati, Ohio, USA) is a device developed to improve bleeding control and reduce heat-related damage stemming from surgical preparation. The aim of this study was to evaluate outcomes and safety of HF versus conventional haemostasis with electrocautery, both techniques used in the same patient. Five patients developed bilateral wound’s thickening (13.9%) demonstrated at the CT scan, two of whom had no clinical manifestation while in three cases the thickening was associated with lymphocele (4.54%), 2 of which were in the side where the EC was used (5.5%), and 1 case (2.7%), in the HF applied side. One isolated lymphocele occurred at the left groin (2.7%) (tables n.2-3). A Fisher’s exact test was conducted between EC and HF on the occurrence of wound healing complications (3/36 for EC and 1/36 for HF) that resulted statistically significant at p<0.05. Focus Harmonic Scalpel has certain advantages than conventional haemostasis in avoiding surgical access complications.

description: The correct N-staging in breast cancer is crucial to tailor treatment and stratify the prognosis. N-staging is based on the number and the localization of suspicious regional nodes on physical examination and/or imaging. Since clinical examination of the axillary cavity is associated with a high false negative rate, imaging modalities play a central role. In the presence of a T1 or T2 tumor and 0-2 suspicious nodes, on imaging at the axillary level I or II, a patient should undergo sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB), whereas in the presence of three or more suspicious nodes at the axillary level I or II confirmed by biopsy, they should undergo axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) or neoadjuvant chemotherapy according to a multidisciplinary approach, as well as in the case of internal mammary, supraclavicular, or level III axillary involved lymph nodes. In this scenario, radiological assessment of lymph nodes at the time of diagnosis must be accurate. False positives may preclude a sentinel lymph node in an otherwise eligible woman; in contrast, false negatives may lead to an unnecessary SLNB and the need for a second surgical procedure. In this review, we aim to describe the anatomy of the axilla and breast regional lymph node, and their diagnostic features to discriminate between normal and pathological nodes at Ultrasound (US) and Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Moreover, the technical aspects, the advantage and limitations of MRI versus US, and the possible future perspectives are also analyzed, through the analysis of the recent literature.

description: According to Peter Galison, the coordination of different ``subcultures'' within a scientific field happens through local exchanges within ``trading zones''. In his view, the workability of such trading zones is not guaranteed, and science is not necessarily driven towards further integration. In this paper, we develop and apply quantitative methods (using semantic, authorship, and citation data from scientific literature), inspired by Galison's framework, to the case of the disunity of high-energy physics. We give prominence to supersymmetry, a concept that has given rise to several major but distinct research programs in the field, such as the formulation of a consistent theory of quantum gravity or the search for new particles. We show that ``theory'' and `phenomenology'' in high-energy physics should be regarded as distinct theoretical subcultures, between which supersymmetry has helped sustain scientific ``trades''. However, as we demonstrate using a topic model, the phenomenological component of supersymmetry research has lost traction and the ability of supersymmetry to tie these subcultures together is now compromised. Our work supports that even fields with an initially strong sentiment of unity may eventually generate diverging research programs and demonstrates the fruitfulness of the notion of trading zones for informing quantitative approaches to scientific pluralism.

description: While there is growing evidence of associations between infections and dementia risk, associations with cognitive impairment and potential structural correlates of cognitive decline remain underexplored. Here we aimed to investigate the presence and nature of any associations between common infections, cognitive decline and neuroimaging parameters. The UK Biobank is a large volunteer cohort (over 500,000 participants recruited aged 40-69) with linkage to primary and secondary care records. Using linear mixed effects models, we compared participants with and without a history of infections for changes in cognitive function during follow-up. Linear regression models were used to investigate the association of infections with hippocampal and white matter hyperintensity (WMH) volume. 16,728 participants (median age 56.0 years [IQR 50.0-61.0]; 51.3% women) had baseline and follow-up cognitive measures. We found no evidence of an association between the presence of infection diagnoses and cognitive decline for mean correct response time (slope difference [infections versus no infections] = 0.40 ms, 95% CI: -0.17-0.96 per year), visual memory (slope difference 0.0004 log errors per year, 95% CI: -0.003-0.004, fluid intelligence (slope difference 0.007, 95% CI: -0.010-0.023) and prospective memory (OR 0.88, 95% CI: 0.68-1.14). No evidence of an association was found between infection site, setting or frequency and cognitive decline except for small associations on the visual memory test. We found no association between infections and hippocampal or WMH volume. Limitations of our study include selection bias, potential practice effects and the relatively young age of our cohort. Our findings do not support a major role for common midlife infections in contributing to cognitive decline for this cohort. Further research is warranted in individuals with more severe infections, for infections occurring later in life.

description: We consider the logarithmic negativity of a finite interval embedded in an infinite one dimensional system at finite temperature. We focus on conformal invariant systems and we show that the naive approach based on the calculation of a two-point function of twist fields in a cylindrical geometry yields a wrong result. The correct result is obtained through a four-point function of twist fields in which two auxiliary fields are inserted far away from the interval, and they are sent to infinity only after having taken the replica limit. In this way, we find a universal scaling form for the finite temperature negativity which depends on the full operator content of the theory and not only on the central charge. In the limit of low and high temperatures, the expansion of this universal form can be obtained by means of the operator product expansion. We check our results against exact numerical computations for the critical harmonic chain.

description: Cancer and cardiovascular disease (CVD) share common risk factors such as dyslipidemia, obesity and inflammation. However, the role of pro-atherogenic environment and its associated low-grade inflammation in tumor progression remains underexplored. Here we show that feeding C57BL/6J mice with a non-obesogenic high fat high cholesterol diet (HFHCD) for two weeks to induce mild dyslipidemia, increases the pool of circulating Ly6Chi monocytes available for initial melanoma development, in an IL-1β-dependent manner. Descendants of circulating myeloid cells, which accumulate in the tumor microenvironment of mice under HFHCD, heighten pro-angiogenic and immunosuppressive activities locally. Limiting myeloid cell accumulation or targeting VEGF-A production by myeloid cells decrease HFHCD-induced tumor growth acceleration. Reverting the HFHCD to a chow diet at the time of tumor implantation protects against tumor growth. Together, these data shed light on cross-disease communication between cardiovascular pathologies and cancer.
A subquantum arrow of time

description: The outcome of a single quantum experiment is unpredictable, except in a pure-state limit. The definite process that takes place in the apparatus may either be intrinsically random or be explainable from a deeper theory. While the first scenario is the standard lore, the latter implies that quantum mechanics is emergent. In that case, it is likely that one has to reconsider radiation by accelerated charges as a physical effect, which thus must be compensated by an energy input. Stochastic electrodynamics, for example, asserts that the vacuum energy arises from classical fluctuations with energy $\frac{1}{2}\hbarω$ per mode. In such theories the stability of the hydrogen ground state will arise from energy input from fluctuations and output by radiation, hence due to an energy throughput. That flux of energy constitutes an arrow of time, which we call the "subquantum arrow of time". It is related to the stability of matter and it is more fundamental than, e.g., the thermodynamic and cosmological arrows.

description: Motivated by the recent report of room-temperature superconductivity at near-ambient pressure in N-doped lutetium hydride by Dasenbrock et al. [Nature 615, 244 (2023)], we performed a comprehensive, detailed study of the phase diagram of the Lu-N-H system, looking for superconducting phases. We combined ab initio crystal structure prediction with ephemeral data-derived interatomic potentials to sample over 200,000 different structures. Out of the more than 150 structures predicted to be metastable within $\sim$ 50 meV from the convex hull we identify 52 viable candidates for conventional superconductivity, for which we computed their superconducting properties from Density Functional Perturbation Theory. Although for some of these structures we do predict a finite superconducting $T_{\text{c}}$, none is even remotely compatible with room-temperature superconductivity as reported by Dasenbrock et al. Our work joins the broader community effort that has followed the report of near-ambient superconductivity, confirming beyond reasonable doubt that no conventional mechanism can explain the reported $T_{\text{c}}$ in Lu-N-H.

description: EC14012-1446 was observed by Handler et al. in April 2004, June 2004, May 2005, and April 2007, and by Provencal et al. in 2008. We review the observations together and obtain 34 independent frequencies. According to the frequency splitting and the asymptotic period spacing law, we identify 6 $l$=1 modes, 4 $l$=2 modes, 5 $l$=3 modes, 10 $l$=1 or 2 modes. Grids of white dwarf models are generated by WDEC with H, He, C, O diffusion in a four-parameter space. The core compositions are directly from white dwarf models generated by MESA. The best-fitting model has $M_{*}$=0.710\,$M_{\odot}$, $T_{\rm eff}$=12200\,K, log($M_{\rm He}/M_{*}$)=-2.5, log($M_{\rm H}/M_{*}$)=-7.0, log\,$g$=8.261, and $ϕ$=3.185\,s. There are 4, 2, and 1 modes identified as trapped in H envelope for observed $l$=1, 2, and 3 modes, respectively. Trapped modes jump the queue of uniform period spacing.

description: This paper explores the role of nonlinear electrodynamics on the stable configuration of thin-shell wormholes formulated from two equivalent geometries of Reissner-Nordström black hole with nonlinear electrodynamics. For this purpose, we use cut and paste approach to eliminate the central singularity and event horizons of the black hole geometry. Then, we explore the stability of the developed model by considering different types of matter distribution located at thin-shell, i.e., barotropic model and variable equations of state (phantomlike variable and Chaplygin variable models). We use linearized radial perturbation to explore the stable characteristics of thin-shell wormholes. It is interesting to mention that Schwarzschild and Reissner-Nordström black holes show the unstable configuration for such type of matter distribution while Reissner-Nordström black hole with nonlinear electrodynamics expresses stable regions. It is found that the presence of nonlinear electrodynamics gives the possibility of a stable structure for barotropic as well as variable models. It is concluded that stable region increases for these models by considering higher negative values of coupling constant $α$ and the real constant $n$.

description: Mammalian embryos sequentially differentiate into trophectoderm and an inner cell mass, the latter of which differentiates into primitive endoderm and epiblast. Trophoblast stem (TS), extraembryonic endoderm (XEN) and embryonic stem (ES) cells derived from these three lineages can self-assemble into synthetic embryos, but the mechanisms remain unknown. Here, we show that a stem cell-specific cadherin code drives synthetic embryogenesis. The XEN cell cadherin code enables XEN cell sorting into a layer below ES cells, recapitulating the sorting of epiblast and primitive endoderm before implantation. The TS cell cadherin code enables TS cell sorting above ES cells, resembling extraembryonic ectoderm clustering above epiblast following implantation. Whereas differential cadherin expression drives initial cell sorting, cortical tension consolidates tissue organization. By optimizing cadherin code expression in different stem cell lines, we tripled the frequency of correctly formed synthetic embryos. Thus, by exploiting cadherin codes from different stages of development, lineage-specific stem cells bypass the preimplantation structure to directly assemble a postimplantation embryo.
title: Cain's homecoming: villainy and the cinema
Creators: name: Taylor, Aaron E. N
Publisher: name: University of Kent

description: In the interests of broadening the debate on the relationship between aesthetics and ethics in the cinema, the thesis concentrates on the specifics of a viewer’s moral relationship with filmic characters, particularly those that are designated as “immoral.” By looking upon the figure of the villain throughout the history of popular American cinema, the thesis will account for the various pragmatic uses to which the character- type has been put - as a structural element, as an invitation to both textual and self- analysis and as a moral dilemma. To these ends, various traditions within structural narratology, cognitive theory, and moral philosophy are drawn upon in order to determine what a villain means to both a viewer and a work. It is argued that the villain encourages a viewer to consider her moral responses to film in a dramatic way - mainly through “trying out” a potentially new set of values. To “vilify” a character within a film is not only to shore up one’s own pre-existing moral beliefs,but is also a process by which a viewer might come to identify, evaluate, and re-evaluate both personal and intersubjective value systems. Adopting such alien and possibly alienating principles through the structures of sympathy and empathy can inspire a reconsideration of qualities that have been expelled from prevalent depictions and descriptions of the “moral” individual. While the phenomenon of “perverse allegiance” with villainous characters seems to represent a contradiction of personal integrity, such sympathetic engagement can actually increase one’s capacity for empathetic imagination, promote interpersonal connectivity, and ultimately lead to more holistic conceptions of moral value.

description: Статья посвящена изучению когнитивных механизмов формирования китайской компьютерной терминологии методом выявления структуры пропозициональных отношений между взаимодействующими элементами термина-композита. Определение и анализ потенциально универсальных пропозициональных структур на уровне слова, формируемых на основе набора аргументов и предикатов и обладающих когнитивно-семантическим статусом, дает углубленное понимание процессов деривации и является важной составляющей современных лингвистических исследований, как отечественных, так и зарубежных, включая исследования, посвященные китайскому словообразованию. В работе приводится описание пропозициональных моделей, выводимых из анализа китайских компьютерных терминов, а также определяется роль пропозиции при изучении других когнитивных моделей словообразования. Выявлено возрастание роли надкатегориальных качественных процессов, участвующих в формировании пропозиции (метафоризации, метонимизации), по мере усложнения концептуальной структуры композита.

description: В данной статье отражены основные принципы анализа современных англицизмов, прочно вошедших в систему русского языка и успешно в ней функционирующих. Объектом исследования являются англицизмы в русском языке, а предметом – особенности их функционирования в системе русского языка. Рассматриваются основные классификации заимствований, отражающие этнические, культурные и экономические связи между языковыми коллективами. В основу исследования был положен антропоцентрический подход, предполагающий изучение языка в рамках антропоцентрической парадигмы «человек в языке» и «язык в человеке». Этот подход актуализирует собой новое учение о том, что новое слово (или англицизм) следует относить к динамической концепции «слова как живого знания». Данный подход, согласно проценту осведомленности реципиентов об англицизмах той или иной сферы, позволяет верифицировать степень локализации и приоритетности экономических, этнических и культурных отношений как в отдельной стране, так и в различных сферах знания между разными странами, что одновременно является актуальным для настоящих исследований в данной области. Концептуальный и ассоциативный методы исследования представились приоритетными в процессе работы с основным материалом. Результаты исследования позволили установить, что уровень незнания появившихся в российских СМИ англицизмов коммерческой и рекламной тематики среди опрошенной молодежи приравнивается к нулевому и составляет 0%, в то время как уровень незнания англицизмов индустрии моды и высоких технологий значительно выше и составляет 20%, уровень незнания англицизмов сферы обслуживания приравнивается к 50%.

description: Colorectal cancer (CRC) is the second most common cause of cancer death. Molecular events in CRC has been extensively studied and several data suggest that Wnt/β-catenin signaling deregulation play a pivotal role in colorectal carcinogenesis. Majority of both familial syndromes (FAP) and sporadic colon cancers, arise from APC or β-catenin genes alterations, leading to Wnt signaling hyperactivation. According to the cancer stem cells (CSCs) theory, some cancer-initiating cells, harboring stem-cell like properties, evade standard chemotherapies, resulting in recurrent and metastatic tumors. Wnt/β-catenin signaling and its deregulation is involved in the recurrence and maintenance of CSCs. In recent years, understanding of molecular mechanisms underlying CSCs biology, led to development of novel strategies to completely eradicate colorectal cancer. Some evidences suggest a potential crosstalk between the endocannabinoid system and the Wnt pathway, also in cancer stem cells, in several tumor types. This could represent a key mechanism in the control of the anti-cancer activity of cannabinoids, as well as a novel putative site for pharmacological intervention. Results from this work led to identification of Rimonabant, originally an inverse agonist of CB1 cannabinoids receptor, as modulator of Wnt/β-catenin pathway in CRC, able to control colon cancer stemness, without toxicity toward cells from healty tissue. Moreover, for the first time, we proposed a novel epigenetic mechanism Rimonabant-mediated. [edited by author]

description: Identifying networks with similar characteristics in a given ensemble, or detecting pattern discontinuities in a temporal sequence of networks, are two examples of tasks that require an effective metric capable of quantifying network (dis)similarity. Here we propose a method based on a global portrait of graph properties built by processing local nodes features. More precisely, a set of dissimilarity measures is defined by elaborating the distributions, over the network, of a few egonet features, namely the degree, the clustering coefficient, and the egonet persistence. The method, which does not require the alignment of the two networks being compared, exploits the statistics of the three features to define one- or multi-dimensional distribution functions, which are then compared to define a distance between the networks. The effectiveness of the method is evaluated using a standard classification test, i.e., recognizing the graphs originating from the same synthetic model. Overall, the proposed distances have performances comparable to the best state-of-the-art techniques (graphlet-based methods) with similar computational requirements. Given its simplicity and flexibility, the method is proposed as a viable approach for network comparison tasks.

description: We consider massless three-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric quantum electrodynamics (QED) with $N_f$ flavours of electrons. Within the dimensional reduction scheme, we compute the critical exponents corresponding to both the electron and selectron field and (parity-even) mass anomalous dimensions at the next-to-leading order in the $1/N_f$ expansion and in an arbitrary covariant gauge. The equality of the gauge-invariant mass anomalous dimensions of the electron and the selectron is found to result from a subtle role played by the epsilon-scalars. Our general framework also allows us to compute the critical exponents of pure scalar QED and to recover known results in the case of spinor QED. An application of our results to dynamical (s)electron mass generation is considered. We find evidence that, while dynamical flavor symmetry breaking occurs in spinor QED, both pure scalar QED and supersymmetric QED remain in an interacting conformal phase.

Front propagation in reaction-diffusion systems with anomalous diffusion

description: A numerical study of the role of anomalous diffusion in front propagation in reaction-diffusion systems is presented. Three models of anomalous diffusion are considered: fractional diffusion, tempered fractional diffusion, and a model that combines fractional diffusion and regular diffusion. The reaction kinetics corresponds to a Fisher-Kolmogorov nonlinearity. The numerical method is based on a finite-difference operator splitting algorithm with an explicit Euler step for the time advance of the reaction kinetics, and a Crank-Nicholson semi-implicit time step for the transport operator. The anomalous diffusion operators are discretized using an upwind, flux-conserving, Grunwald-Letnikov finite-difference scheme applied to the regularized fractional derivatives. With fractional diffusion of order $α$, fronts exhibit exponential acceleration, $a_L(t) \sim e^{γt/α}$, and develop algebraic decaying tails, $ϕ\sim 1/x^α$. In the case of tempered fractional diffusion, this phenomenology prevails in the intermediate asymptotic regime $\left(χt \right)^{1/α} \ll x \ll 1/λ$, where $1/λ$ is the scale of the tempering. Outside this regime, i.e. for $x > 1/λ$, the tail exhibits the tempered decay $ϕ\sim e^{-λx}/x^{α+1}$, and the front velocity approaches the terminal speed $v_*= \left(γ-λ^αχ\right)/ λ$. Of particular interest is the study of the interplay of regular and fractional diffusion. It is shown that the main role of regular diffusion is to delay the onset of front acceleration. In particular, the crossover time, $t_c$, to transition to the accelerated fractional regime exhibits a logarithmic scaling of the form $t_c \sim \log \left(χ_d/χ_f\right)$ where $χ_d$ and $χ_f$ are the regular and fractional diffusivities.

description: В представленном исследовании осуществлен многосторонний комплексный анализ восьми разножанровых текстов, использованных в международном тестировании PIRLS в период 2001 – 2011 гг., с целью подтвердить гипотезу о различиях/сходствах в типологических параметрах, оценивающих сложность художественных и научно-популярных текстов. В качестве основополагающей использована теория сложности текста, учитывающая количественные (длина текста, предложения, слова) и качественные (нарративность, синтаксическая простота, конкретность, референциальная связность, глубинная связность) параметры текста (МкНамара, 2004. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/8358727_Coh-Metrix_Analysis_of_text_on_cohesion_and_language). Определено, что при равных объеме и уровне читабельности художественные тексты демонстрируют большее разнообразие синтаксических структур и высокую степень нарративности. Индексы конкретности художественных и научно-популярных текстов находятся приблизительно в одном диапазоне, в то время как референциальная и глубинная связность демонстрирует широкую амплитуду колебаний в обоих типах текстов.
