'Here, There and Everywhere': positioning the Karlsruhe Bede within the early medieval glossing tradition on Bede
Creators: name: Bauer, Bernhard
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2025

description: The Karlsruhe Bede manuscript holds a significant place in the early medieval glossing tradition on Bede’s computistical works, particularly concerning Celtic vernacular glosses and their interactions with Latin glosses. This paper aims to position the manuscript within this tradition and to utilise a distant reading approach as its primary methodological framework. Such an approach enables the systematic analysis of a large body of text, facilitating the identification of broader patterns and trends within the glossing tradition.Since the late 19th century, the paratext of the Karlsruhe Bede, comprising over 250 Old Irish and many more Latin glosses, has been a central focus of research on the early medieval glossing tradition on Bede’s computistical œuvre, along with the glosses in Angers 477 and the Vienna Bede. Through the application of a distant reading approach, the paper reveals overarching patterns and connections within the glossing tradition, thereby shedding light on the broader context in which the Karlsruhe Bede manuscript is situated. This provides the opportunity to analyse its glosses alongside those of other related manuscripts. Ultimately, I seek to contribute to an enhanced understanding of the Karlsruhe Bede and its paratext, its relation to the broader glossing tradition on Bede, and its implications for the study of language contact and knowledge transfer evident in the glosses.

description: We analyze the dynamical nearest-neighbor and next-nearest-neighbor spin correlations in the 4-site and 8-site dynamical cluster approximation to the two-dimensional Hubbard model. Focusing on the robustness of these correlations at long imaginary times, we reveal enhanced ferromagnetic correlations on the lattice diagonal, consistent with the emergence of composite spin-1 moments at a temperature scale that essentially coincides with the pseudo-gap temperature $T^*$. We discuss these results in the context of the spin-freezing theory of unconventional superconductivity.
Quasilinearization Method and Summation of the WKB Series

Subjects: subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)

description: Solutions obtained by the quasilinearization method (QLM) are compared with the WKB solutions. Expansion of the $p$-th QLM iterate in powers of $\hbar$ reproduces the structure of the WKB series generating an infinite number of the WKB terms with the first $2^p$ terms reproduced exactly. The QLM quantization condition leads to exact energies for the Pöschl-Teller, Hulthen, Hylleraas, Morse, Eckart potentials etc. For other, more complicated potentials the first QLM iterate, given by the closed analytic expression, is extremely accurate. The iterates converge very fast. The sixth iterate of the energy for the anharmonic oscillator and for the two-body Coulomb Dirac equation has an accuracy of 20 significant figures.

description: Residuale dipolare Kopplungen (RDCs) werden in der Strukturaufklärung kleiner, organischer Moleküle in Fitting-Algorithmen zur Diskriminierung zweier oder mehrerer Strukturvorschläge verwendet. In dieser Anwendung wird jedoch ein großer Teil des Informationsgehalts von RDCs nicht verwendet beziehungsweise über die Analyse von Strukturmodellen eingeschränkt. Die modell-freie Analyse von RDCs hat zum Ziel den vollen Informationsgehalt zu verwenden, indem, im Gegensatz zu bisherigen Methoden, lokale Tensoren zur Beschreibung der RDCs genutzt werden. Diese Dissertation beschäftigt sich mit der Weiterentwicklung und Implementierung einer iterativen, modell-freien Analyse in der Software TITANIA für die Anwendung an kleinen, organischen Molekülen. Die Integration kann in zwei Projekte unterteilt werden. Das Projekt 1 zielte auf die Nutzung von synthetischen Daten ab, um die Grenzen der Anwendbarkeit an verschiedenen Modellsystemem zu demonstrieren. Im zweiten Projekt wurde diese Fragestellung auf ein einzelnes Molekül reduziert, wobei dafür experimentelle RDCs genutzt wurden.

 Material examined: North Island, Bruce Park, Scenic Reserve: 1 specimen from a sample of Echinodium hispidum (moss) on exposed live roots of Podocarpus totara.
The specimen we examined has the head plate faceted by the presence of folds; five facets are present, the median one has a finer sculpture than others (Fig. 11 A). The sculpture of the trunk plates is formed by dots of unequal size (the largest points in the central portion of each plate). The dots appear to be interconnected by very thin lines that are very difficult to see, almost invisible, (Fig. 11 B). A fine dense sculpture, with very small dots, is present on the ventral surface of the body.

description: We present an efficient method to solve Schrödinger's equation for perturbations of low rank. In particular, the method allows to calculate the level counting function with very little numerical effort. To illustrate the power of the method, we calculate the number variance for two pseudointegrable quantum billiards: the barrier billiard and the right triangle billiard (smallest angle $π/5$). In this way, we obtain precise estimates for the level compressibility in the semiclassical (high energy) limit. In both cases, our results confirm recent theoretical predictions, based on periodic orbit summation.

description: Web services are important in the processing of personal data in the World Wide Web. In light of recent data protection regulations, this processing raises a question about consent or other basis of legal processing. While a consent must be informed, many web services fail to provide enough information for users to make informed decisions. Privacy policies and privacy languages are one way for addressing this problem; the former document how personal data is processed, while the latter describe this processing formally. In this paper, the socalled Layered Privacy Language (LPL) is coupled with web services in order to express personal data processing with a formal analysis method that seeks to generate the processing purposes for privacy policies. To this end, the paper reviews the background theory as well as proposes a method and a concrete tool. The results are demonstrated with a small case study.

description: We present results of nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) experiments in superfluid 3He in two samples of nematic aerogel consisting of nearly parallel mullite strands. The samples were cut from the same piece of the aerogel, but one of them was squeezed by 30% in the direction transverse to the strands. In both samples the superfluid transition of 3He occurred into the polar phase, where no qualitative difference between NMR properties of 3He in these samples was found. The difference, however, has appeared on further cooling, after the transition to the polar-distorted A phase (PdA phase) with the orbital part of the order parameter in the 2D Larkin-Imry-Ma (LIM) state. In the squeezed sample the 2D LIM state is anisotropic that results in changes in the NMR, which can be used as an additional marker of the PdA phase and have allowed us to measure the value of the anisotropy.

title: Chemokine and chemikine receptor expression by human brain endothelium :an in vitro and in situ study
Creators: name: Subileau, Eva-Anne
Publisher: name: The Open University

description: The infiltration of leukocytes across the BBB is thought to be mediated by chemokines released in the CNS. This study investigated the production of chemokines and expression of chemokine receptors by human brain endothelial cells (HBEC) as well as the consequences of CXCL10 stimulation on brain endothelial function in terms of leukocyte migration and endothelial permeability.
Purified primary HBEC as well as a novel human brain endothelial cell line, called hCEMC/D3 and generated in collaboration with the Institute Cochin, were used in the present study. Characterisation of hCMEC/D3 cells was effected by determining the expression and localisation of HBEC markers such as tight junction and adherens junction proteins. Both primary and immortalized HBEC were tested for the production of four chemokines (CCL2, CCL5, CXCL8 and CXCL10) considered to play a role in multiple sclerosis. CXCL8 and CCL2 were constitutively released, whereas CXCL10 and CCL5 could not be detected at basal levels. By contrast, all these chemokines were up-regulated in response to either TNF-a or IFN-y or a combination of both. TNF-a had the most striking effect, up-regulating the production of CCL2, CCL5 and CXCL8, while IFN-y up-regulated CXCL10 exclusively. The chemokine receptors CXCR1 and CXCR3, whose ligands include CXCL8 and CXCL10, were expressed constitutively by HBEC both in vitro and in vivo, and only CXCR3 was up-regulated in response to cytokine stimulation in vitro. Furthermore, CXCR3 on endothelial cells is functional as CXCL10 induces phosphorylation of p42/44 MAP kinase, p38 MAP kinase and JNK/SAPK. However, activation of HBEC by CXCL10 did not induce any permeability change nor did it modulate leukocyte adhesion.
 These results demonstrate that endothelial cells could play an important role in chemokine production and hence leukocyte infiltration during inflammatory pathologies such as MS. The role of chemokine receptors requires further investigation.

description: We present a matrix-model expression for the sum of instanton contributions to the prepotential of an N=2 supersymmetric U(N) gauge theory, with matter in various representations. This expression is derived by combining the renormalization-group approach to the gauge theory prepotential with matrix-model methods. This result can be evaluated order-by-order in matrix-model perturbation theory to obtain the instanton corrections to the prepotential. We also show, using this expression, that the one-instanton prepotential assumes a universal form.

description: During the last ten years, the studies on non-Markovian open system dynamics has become increasingly popular and having contributions from diverse set of research communities. This interest has arisen due to fundamental problematics how to define and quantify memory effects in the quantum domain, how to exploit and develop applications based on them, and also due to the question what are the ultimate limits for controlling open system dynamics. We give here a simple theoretical introduction to the basic approaches to define and quantify quantum non-Markovianity -- also highlighting their connections and differences. In addition to the importance of the development for open quantum systems studies, we also discuss the implications of the progress for other fields including, e.g., formal studies of stochastic processes and quantum information science, and conclude with possible future directions the recent developments open.

description: ABSTRACTRecent empirical investigations have concentrated primarily on studying imitation as a social tool that satisfies social motivations, while other potential reasons for and forms of imitation have attracted less attention. These investigations have also focused on studying the role of pedagogy in imitative learning and set up most experiments in a pedagogical framework. In this article, we present two gaps in studying high‐fidelity imitation. First, social motivation may not be the only motivation, especially in less socially stratified communities. Second, imitative learning in observational contexts is understudied. We discuss these gaps by providing examples of alternative imitative learning scenarios and aspects that may have been overlooked and thus underexplored. Moving forward, cross‐cultural investigations targeting other aspects and forms of imitative learning can provide insights into how observational and pedagogical learning together foster effective learning across diverse childhood ecologies.

The results are extended to the propagation of the Proca field in Rindler spacetime. We examine critically the possibility of existence of a general spin-acceleration coupling in complete analogy with the well-known spin-rotation coupling. We argue that such a direct coupling between spin and linear acceleration does not exist.

description: V473 Lyr is a classical Cepheid which is unique in having substantial amplitude variations with a period of approximately 3.3 years, thought to be similar to the Blazhko variations in RR Lyrae stars. We obtained an {\it XMM-Newton} observation of this star to followup a previous detection in X-rays. Rather than the X-ray burst and rapid decline near maximum radius seen in $δ$ Cephei itself, the X-ray flux in V473 Lyr remained constant for a third of the pulsation cycle covered by the observation. Thus the X-rays are most probably not produced by the changes around the pulsation cycle. The X-ray spectrum is soft (kT = 0.6 keV), with X-ray properties which are consistent with a young low mass companion. Previously there was no evidence of a companion in radial velocities or in {\it Gaia} and {\it Hipparcos} proper motions. While this rules out companions which are very close or very distant, a binary companion at a separation between 30 and 300 AU is possible. This is an example of an X-ray observation revealing evidence of a low mass companion, which is important in completing the mass ratio statistics of binary Cepheids. Furthermore, the detection of a young X-ray bright companion is a further indication that the Cepheid (primary) is a Population I star, even though its pulsation behavior differs from other classical Cepheids.

description: Dado lo inédito del reto educativo provocado por la pandemia para la población mundial, no existen actualmente instrumentos que permitan valorar cómo los distintos colectivos han vivido la pandemia y cómo se han enfrentado emocionalmente a ella. Así, para la recogida de datos se diseñó un cuestionario ad hoc denominado “Cuestionario para familias de personas con TEA ante la COVID-19”, el cual constaba de dos partes (datos sociodemográficos y percepción sobre la cuarentena). En los datos sociodemográficos se preguntaba a los participantes información general sobre ellos mismos (sexo, género, edad, tamaño del municipio, país de residencia, número de personas que conforman la unidad familiar, estado civil, nivel de estudios y periodo de cuarentena) y sobre sus familiares con TEA (sexo, edad, tipo de diagnóstico y modalidad de escolarización). En el apartado centrado en la COVID-19 y el confinamiento, se plantearon tres bloques: estado psicológico y emocional del participante y del familiar con TEA durante el confinamiento, uso de TIC y seguimiento del docente.

description: We consider intersecting hypersurfaces in curved spacetime with gravity governed by a class of actions which are topological invariants in lower dimensionality. Along with the Chern-Simons boundary terms there is a sequence of intersection terms that should be added in the action functional for a well defined variational principle. We construct them in the case of Characteristic Classes, obtaining relations which have a general topological meaning. Applying them on a manifold with a discontinuous connection 1-form we obtain the gravity action functional of the system and show that the junction conditions can be found in a simple algebraic way. At the sequence of intersections there are localised independent energy tensors, constrained only by energy conservation. We work out explicitly the simplest non trivial case.

description: We analyze domestic household energy demand and use patterns in Tanzania, using a detailed household survey of purchase transactions, a multivariate probit model, and the QUAIDS modeling framework. The main fuel sources that we study are kerosene, charcoal, and firewood. These three accounted for 96.5% of spending on energy by households. Charcoal and firewood are used for cooking while kerosene is used for both lighting and cooking. Kerosene is almost exclusively imported, while charcoal and firewood are produced domestically. These fuel sources are important, given the impacts of wood harvesting on the environment and kerosene imports on public finances. We find a statistically significant response in kerosene demand to charcoal prices, suggesting a pattern of substitution, but no strong substitution relationships between other fuel-pairs. These results, which we used in a simulation of tariff change, imply that policies centered on price changes may not be effective in changing consumer behavior unless alternative sources of energy are readily accessible.

description: Vector-borne infectious disease dynamics result mainly from the intertwined effect of the diversity, abundance and behaviour of hosts and vectors. Most studies, however, have analysed the relationship between host–species diversity and infection risk, focusing on vector population instead of individuals, probably dismissing the level at which the transmission process occurs. In this paper, we examine the importance of the host community in accounting for infection risk, at both population and individual levels, using the wild transmission of the protozoan that causes Chagas disease as a vector-borne disease model. Chagas disease is caused by Trypanosoma cruzi, transmitted by triatomine insects to mammals. We assessed if T. cruzi infection in vectors is explained by small mammal diversity and their densities (total and infected), when infection risk is measured at population level as infection prevalence (under frequency-dependent transmission approach) and as density of infected vectors (density-dependent transmission approach), and when measured at individual level as vector infection probability. We analysed the infection status of 1974 vectors and co-occurring small mammal hosts in a semiarid-Mediterranean ecosystem. Results revealed that regardless of the level of analysis, only one host rodent species accounted for most variation in vector infection risk, suggesting a key role in the transmission cycle. To determine the factors explaining vector-borne disease dynamics, infection risk should be assessed at different scales, reflecting the factors meaningful from the vector's perspective and considering vector class-specific features.

description: In this paper, we consider device-to-device (D2D) communications as an underlay to the cellular networks over both licensed and unlicensed spectrum, where Long Term Evolution (LTE) users utilize the spectrum orthogonally while D2D users share the spectrum with LTE users. In the system, each LTE and D2D user can access the licensed or unlicensed band for communications. To maximize the total throughput of the system, we leverage stochastic geometry to derive the throughput for each kind of users by modeling the deployment of users as Poisson point processes (PPPs), and investigate the spectrum access problem for these users. Since the problem is NP-hard, we propose a sequential quadratic programming (SQP) based algorithm to obtain the corresponding suboptimal solutions. Theoretically, we evaluate the system performance by analyzing the throughput regions. Simulation results validate the accuracy of the geometric analysis and verify the effectiveness of the proposed algorithm.

description: Ontologies store semantic knowledge in a machine-readable way and represent domain knowledge in controlled vocabulary. In this work, a workflow is set up to derive classes from a text dataset using natural language processing (NLP) methods. Furthermore, ontologies and thesauri are browsed for those classes and corresponding existing textual definitions are extracted. A base ontology is selected to be extended with knowledge from catalysis science, while word similarity is used to introduce new classes to the ontology based on the class candidates. Relations are introduced to automatically reference them to already existing classes in the selected ontology. The workflow is conducted for a text dataset related to catalysis research on methanation of CO and seven semantic artifacts assisting ontology extension by domain experts. Undefined concepts and unstructured relations can be more easily introduced automatically into existing ontologies. Domain experts can then revise the resulting extended ontology by choosing the best fitting definition of a class and specifying suggested relations between concepts of catalyst research. A structured extension of ontologies supported by NLP methods is made possible to facilitate a Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, Reusable (FAIR) data management workflow.

description: We describe the interface between the outer heliosphere and the local interstellar medium (LISM) surrounding the Sun. The components of the inner LISM are the four partially ionized clouds [the Local Interstellar Cloud (LIC), G cloud, Blue cloud, and Aql cloud] that are in contact with the outer heliosphere, and ionized gas produced by EUV radiation primarily from $ε$~CMa. We construct the three-dimensional shape of the LIC based on interstellar line absorption along 62 sightlines and show that in the direction of $ε$~CMa, $β$~CMa, and Sirius~B the neutral hydrogen column density from the center of the LIC is a minimum. We call this region the ``hydrogen hole''. In this direction, the presence of Blue cloud absorption and the absence of LIC absorption can be simply explained by the Blue cloud lying just outside of the heliosphere. We propose that the outer edge of the Blue cloud is a Strömgren shell driven toward the heliosphere by high pressures in the H~II region. We find that the vectors of neutral and ionized helium flowing through the heliosphere are inconsistent with the LIC flow vector, and that the nearby intercloud gas is consistent with ionization by $ε$~CMa and other stellar sources without requiring additional sources of ionization or million degree plasma. In the upwind direction, the heliosphere is passing through an environment of several LISM clouds, which may explain the recent influx of interstellar grains containing $^{60}$Fe from supernova ejecta measured in Antarctica snow.

title: Identification of Genome Targets of the DET1 Complex in Higher Plants
Creators: name: Dubin, Manu Jody
Publisher: name: The Open University

description: Light provides a major source of information from the environment during plant growth and development. Light-regulated gene expression is partly controlled by the phytochrome photoreceptors, which once activated, are imported into the nucleus where they bind and activate transcription factors such as PIF3. Coupled with this, the degradation of positively acting intermediates such as the transcription factor HY5 by COP1 and other ubiquitin ligases acts to repress photomorphogenesis in darkness. Another negative regulator of photomorphogenesis is DET1 (De-Etiolated 1), which forms part of a nuclear-localised complex with the plant homolog of UV- Damaged DNA Binding protein 1 (DDB1) and the E2 ubiquitin-ligase activating protein COP10 (Constitutive Photomorphogenic 10). Previously it was found that DET 1 binds chromatin via a direct interaction with the core histone H2B, suggesting that DET1 may repress light activated genes by interacting directly with their promoters.

Here it is shown that DET1 forms part of a CUL4-based ubiquitin ligase complex and is localised to discrete foci throughout the nucleus. Chromatin Immunoprecipitation experiments show that in the dark DET 1 binds to the promoters of the light induced CAB2 and HEMA1 genes, and that this binding is abolished in the light, coincidental with the activation of these genes. DET 1 was also detected at the promoter of the light-repressed POR-A gene when it is in its repressed state as well as the promoter of the developmental^ regulated FT gene, again when this gene is repressed. Based on these data it is proposed that the DET1 complex binds the promoters of light- regulated genes in the dark and directly represses their transcription, either by chromatin remodelling and/or ubiquitin-mediated regulation of the transcriptional apparatus. Light causes the dissociation of the DET 1 complex from these promoters, allowing activation of these genes. DET1 may also play a more general role in genome maintenance during plant development.

On the design of global-in-time Newton-multigrid-pressure Schur complement solvers for incompressible flow problems

description: In this work, a new global-in-time solution strategy for incompressible flow problems is presented, which highly exploits the pressure Schur complement (PSC) approach for the construction of a space–time multigrid algorithm. For linear problems like the incompressible Stokes equations discretized in space using an inf-sup-stable finite element pair, the fundamental idea is to block the linear systems of equations associated with individual time steps into a single all-at-once saddle point problem for all velocity and pressure unknowns. Then the pressure Schur complement can be used to eliminate the velocity fields and set up an implicitly defined linear system for all pressure variables only. This algebraic manipulation allows the construction of parallel-in-time preconditioners for the corresponding all-at-once Picard iteration by extending frequently used sequential PSC preconditioners in a straightforward manner. For the construction of efficient solution strategies, the so defined preconditioners are employed in a GMRES method and then embedded as a smoother into a space–time multigrid algorithm, where the computational complexity of the coarse grid problem highly depends on the coarsening strategy in space and/or time. While commonly used finite element intergrid transfer operators are used in space, tailor-made prolongation and restriction matrices in time are required due to a special treatment of the pressure variable in the underlying time discretization. The so defined all-at-once multigrid solver is extended to the solution of the nonlinear Navier–Stokes equations by using Newton’s method for linearization of the global-in-time problem. In summary, the presented multigrid solution strategy only requires the efficient solution of time-dependent linear convection–diffusion–reaction equations and several independent Poisson-like problems. In order to demonstrate the potential of the proposed solution strategy for viscous fluid simulations with large time intervals, the convergence behavior is examined for various linear and nonlinear test cases.

Direct detection of supersymmetric dark matter- Theoretical rates for transitions to excited states

description: The recent WMAP data have confirmed that exotic dark matter together with the vacuum energy (cosmological constant) dominate in the flat Universe. Supersymmetry provides a natural dark matter candidate, the lightest supersymmetric particle (LSP). Thus the direct dark matter detection is central to particle physics and cosmology. Most of the research on this issue has hitherto focused on the detection of the recoiling nucleus. In this paper we study transitions to the excited states, focusing on the first excited state at 50 keV of Iodine A=127. We find that the transition rate to this excited state is about 10 percent of the transition to the ground state. So, in principle, the extra signature of the gammai ray following its de-excitation can be exploited experimentally.

description: Chirality is a recurrent theme in the study of biological systems, in which active processes are driven by the internal conversion of chemical energy into work. Bacterial flagella, acto-myosin filaments and microtubule bundles are active systems which are also intrinsically chiral. Despite some exploratory attempt to capture the relations between chirality and motility, no intrinsically chiral system has ever been analyzed so far. To address this gap in knowledge, here we study the effects of internal active forces and torques on a three-dimensional droplet of cholesteric liquid crystal (CLC) embedded in an isotropic liquid. We consider tangential anchoring of the liquid crystal director at the droplet surface. Contrary to what happens in nematics, where moderate extensile activity leads to droplet rotation, cholesteric active droplets exhibit a lot more complex and variegated behaviors. We find that extensile force dipole activity stabilises complex defect configurations whose orbiting dynamics couples to thermodynamic chirality to propel screw-like droplet motion. Instead, dipolar torque activity may either tighten or unwind the cholesteric helix, and if tuned can power rotations with an oscillatory angular velocity of zero mean.
Separable Hilbert space in Loop Quantum Gravity

description: We study the separability of the state space of loop quantum gravity. In the standard construction, the kinematical Hilbert space of the diffeomorphism-invariant states is nonseparable. This is a consequence of the fact that the knot-space of the equivalence classes of graphs under diffeomorphisms is noncountable. However, the continuous moduli labeling these classes do not appear to affect the physics of the theory. We investigate the possibility that these moduli could be only the consequence of a poor choice in the fine-tuning of the mathematical setting. We show that by simply choosing a minor extension of the functional class of the classical fields and coordinates, the moduli disappear, the knot classes become countable, and the kinematical Hilbert space of loop quantum gravity becomes separable.

description: We use Solar Dynamics Observatory (SDO)/Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) data to reconstruct the plasma properties from differential emission measure (DEM) analysis for a previously studied long-lived, low-latitude coronal hole (CH) over its lifetime of ten solar rotations. We initially obtain a non-isothermal DEM distribution with a dominant component centered around 0.9 MK and a secondary smaller component at 1.5 - 2.0 MK. We find that deconvolving the data with the instrument point spread function (PSF) to account for long-range scattered light reduces the secondary hot component. Using the 2012 Venus transit and a 2013 lunar eclipse to test the efficiency of this deconvolution, significant amounts of residual stray light are found for the occulted areas. Accounting for this stray light in the error budget of the different AIA filters further reduces the secondary hot emission, yielding CH DEM distributions that are close to isothermal with the main contribution centered around 0.9 MK. Based on these DEMs, we analyze the evolution of the emission measure (EM), density, and averaged temperature during the CH's lifetime. We find that once the CH is clearly observed in EUV images, the bulk of the CH plasma reveals a quite constant state, i.e. temperature and density reveal no major changes, whereas the total CH area and the photospheric magnetic fine structure inside the CH show a distinct evolutionary pattern. These findings suggest that CH plasma properties are mostly "set" at the CH formation or/and that all CHs have similar plasma properties.
