description: This work evaluated the volatile composition, antioxidant and antiprotozoal activities of the essential oil obtained from leaves of Eugenia gracillima Kiaersk. (EGEO) grown in Brazilian Northeast area (Araripe, Brazil). The volatile compounds of EGEO were analyzed by GC and GC–MS and its chemical composition is mainly composed of sesquiterpene hydrocarbons (91.22%), oxygenated sesquiterpenes (7.45%) and monoterpene (1.01%). The most abundant volatile constituents of the EGEO were germacrene D (16.10%), γ-muurolene (15.60%), bicyclogermacrene (8.53%), germacrene B (7.43%), and Δ-elemene (6.06%). The oil showed weak to moderate antioxidant activity. EGEO was highly selective to Leishmania braziliensis and Leishmania infantum promastigotes with selective indexes of 73.66 and 71.41, respectively. EGEO did not inhibit Trypanosoma cruzi. These data suggest that the E. gracillima essential oil is a relevant source of lead compounds for development of anti-Leishmania drugs.

description: We present a new one-dimensional calculation of low and intermediate energy atmospheric muon and neutrino fluxes, using up-to-date data on primary cosmic rays and hadronic interactions. We study several sources of uncertainties relevant to our calculations. A comparison with the muon fluxes and charge ratios measured in several modern balloon-borne experiments suggests that the atmospheric neutrino flux is essentially lower than one used for the standard analyses of the sub-GeV and multi-GeV neutrino induced events in underground detectors.

Electron-positron pairs in hot plasma of accretion column in bright X-ray pulsars

description: The luminosity of X-ray pulsars powered by accretion onto magnetized neutron stars covers a wide range over a few orders of magnitude. The brightest X-ray pulsars recently discovered as pulsating ultraluminous X-ray sources reach accretion luminosity above $10^{40}\,{\rm erg\,s^{-1}}$ which exceeds the Eddington value more than by a factor of ten. Most of the energy is released within small regions in the vicinity of magnetic poles of accreting neutron star - in accretion columns. Because of the extreme energy release within a small volume accretion columns of bright X-ray pulsars are ones of the hottest places in the Universe, where the internal temperature can exceed 100 keV. Under these conditions, the processes of creation and annihilation of electron-positron pairs can be influential but have been largely neglected in theoretical models of accretion columns. In this letter, we investigate properties of a gas of electron-positron pairs under physical conditions typical for accretion columns. We argue that the process of pairs creation can crucially influence both the dynamics of the accretion process and internal structure of accretion column limiting its internal temperature, dropping the local Eddington flux and increasing the gas pressure.

description: We consider electromagnetic radiation of a charged particle bunch moving uniformly along a corrugated planar metallic surface. It is assumed that the wavelengths under consideration are much larger than the period and the depth of corrugation. Using the method of the equivalent boundary conditions we obtain the Fourier-transform of the Hertz vector. It is demonstrated that the ultra-relativistic bunch excites the surface waves, whereas the volume radiation is absent. Fourier-transforms of the surface wave components and spectral density of energy losses are obtained and analyzed.

description: We present some results from simulation of a network of nodes connected by c-NOT gates with nearest neighbors. Though initially we begin with pure states of varying boundary conditions, the updating with time quickly involves a complicated entanglement involving all or most nodes. As a normal c-NOT gate, though unitary for a single pair of nodes, seems to be not so when used in a network in a naive way, we use a manifestly unitary form of the transition matrix with c?-NOT gates, which invert the phase as well as flipping the qubit. This leads to complete entanglement of the net, but with variable coefficients for the different components of the superposition. It is interesting to note that by a simple logical back projection the original input state can be recovered in most cases. We also prove that it is not possible for a sequence of unitary operators working on a net to make it move from an aperiodic regime to a periodic one, unlike some classical cases where phase-locking happens in course of evolution. However, we show that it is possible to introduce by hand periodic orbits to sets of initial states, which may be useful in forming dynamic pattern recognition systems.

description: Using the model independent method of Villante, Fiorentini, Lisi, Fogli, Palazzo, and the rates measured in the SNO and Super-Kamiokande solar neutrino experiment, we calculate the amount of active nu_mu or nu_tau present in the flux of solar neutrinos on Earth. We show that the probability of nu_e->nu_{mu,tau} transitions is larger than zero at 99.89% CL. We find that the averaged flux of nu_{mu,tau} on Earth is larger than 0.17 times the 8B nu_e flux predicted by the BP2000 Standard Solar Model at 99% CL. We discuss also the consequences of possible nu_e->anti-nu_{mu,tau} or nu_e->anti-nu_e transitions of solar neutrinos. We derive a model-independent lower limit of 0.52 at 99% CL for the ratio of the 8B nu_e flux produced in the Sun and its value in the BP2000 Standard Solar Model.

description: Sum rules for twist-3 distributions are reexamined. Integral relations between twist-3 and twist-2 parton distributions suggest the possibility for a $δ$-function at $x=0$. We confirm and clarify this result by constructing $h_L$ and $h_L^3$ (quark-gluon interaction dependent part of $h_L$) explicitly from their moments for a one-loop dressed massive quark. The physics of these results is illustrated by calculating $h_L(x,Q^2)$ using light-front time-ordered pQCD to ${\cal O}(α_S)$ on a quark target. A $δ(x)$ term is also found in $e(x,Q^2)$, but not in $g_T(x,Q^2)$, to this order in ${\cal O}(α_S)$.

On the liquid-glass transition line in monatomic Lennard-Jones fluids

Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: A thermodynamic approach to derive the liquid-glass transition line in the reduced temperature vs reduced density plane for a monatomic Lennard-Jones fluid is presented. The approach makes use of a recent reformulation of the classical perturbation theory of liquids [M. Robles and M. López de Haro, Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys. {\bf 3}, 5528 (2001)] which is at grips with a rational function approximation for the Laplace transform of the radial distribution function of the hard-sphere fluid. The only input required is an equation of state for the hard-sphere system. Within the Mansoori-Canfield/Rasaiah-Stell variational perturbation theory, two choices for such an equation of state, leading to a glass transition for the hard-sphere fluid, are considered. Good agreement with the liquid-glass transition line derived from recent molecular dynamic simulations [Di Leonardo et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 84}, 6054(2000)] is obtained.

description: Evidence of critical dynamics has been recently found in both experiments and models of large scale brain dynamics. The understanding of the nature and features of such critical regime is hampered by the relatively small size of the available connectome, which prevent among other things to determine its associated universality class. To circumvent that, here we study a neural model defined on a class of small-world network that share some topological features with the human connectome. We found that varying the topological parameters can give rise to a scale-invariant behavior belonging either to mean field percolation universality class or having non universal critical exponents. In addition, we found certain regions of the topological parameters space where the system presents a discontinuous (i.e., non critical) dynamical phase transition into a percolated state. Overall these results shed light on the interplay of dynamical and topological roots of the complex brain dynamics.

An alternative view on the Bateman-Luke variational principle

Subjects: subject: Fluid Dynamics (physics.flu-dyn)

description: A new derivation of the Bernoulli equation for water waves in three-dimensional rotating and translating coordinate systems is given. An alternative view on the Bateman-Luke variational principle is presented. The variational principle recovers the boundary value problem governing the motion of potential water waves in a container undergoing prescribed rigid-body motion in three dimensions. A mathematical theory is presented for the problem of three-dimensional interactions between potential surface waves and a floating structure with interior potential fluid sloshing. The complete set of equations of motion for the exterior gravity-driven water waves, and the exact nonlinear hydrodynamic equations of motion for the linear momentum and angular momentum of the floating structure containing fluid, are derived from a second variational principle.
Quantum Signatures in the Quantum Carnot Cycle

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: The Carnot cycle combines reversible isothermal and adiabatic strokes to obtain optimal efficiency, at the expense of a vanishing power output. Quantum Carnot-analog cycles are constructed and solved, operating irreversibly at non-vanishing power. Swift thermalization is obtained in the isotherms utilizing a shortcut to equilibrium protocols and the adiabats employ frictionless unitary shortcuts. The working medium in this study is composed of a particle in a driven harmonic trap. For this system, we solve the dynamics employing a generalized canonical state. Such a description incorporates both changes in energy and coherence. This allows comparing three types of Carnot-analog cycles, Carnot-shortcut, Endo-shortcut and Endo-global. The Carnot-shortcut engine demonstrates the trade-off between power and efficiency. It posses a maximum in power, a minimum cycle time where it becomes a dissipator and for a diverging cycle time approaches the ideal Carnot efficiency. The irreversibility of the cycle arises from non-adiabatic driving, which generates coherence. To study the role of coherence we compare the performance of the shortcut cycles, where coherence is limited to the interior of the strokes, with the Endo-global cycle where the coherence never vanishes. The Endo-global engine exhibits a quantum signature at a short cycle-time, manifested by a positive power output while the shortcut cycles become dissipators. If energy is monitored the back action of the measurement causes dephasing and the power terminates.

description: In this paper, we study Pizzetti-type formulas for Stiefel manifolds and Cauchy-type formulas for the tangential Dirac operator from a distributional perspective. First we illustrate a general distributional method for integration over manifolds in $\mathbb R^m$ defined by means of $k$ equations $φ_1(\underline{x})=\ldots=φ_k(\underline{x})=0$. Next, we apply this method to derive an alternative proof of the Pizzetti formulae for the real Stiefel manifolds $SO(m)/SO(m-k)$. Besides, a distributional interpretation to invariant oriented integration is provided. In particular, we obtain a distributional Cauchy theorem for the tangential Dirac operator on an embedded $(m-k)$-dimensional smooth surface.

 Gyrinus (Oreogyrinus) feminalis Mouchamps, 1957: 246 (original description).
 Gyrinus feminalis is known only from its original description, based on two female specimens, said tobe depositedin the MNHN, with nofurtherlocality information than ‘Venezuela’ (MOUCHAMPS 1957). The species was declared so distinct by MOUCHAMPS (1957) that he did not hesitate to describe it without the male. Upon a request to loan the type specimens from the MNHN, we were informed they could not be found. The specimens are also not in the collection of the Institut Royal des Science Naturelles de Belgique, in Brussels. Therefore, they could not be studied. The actual description of G. feminalis sounds suspiciously similar to thatof G. venezolensis, which ismentioned by MOUCHAMPS (1957), but notformally diagnosed. Furthermore, the most critical diagnostic feature provided by MOUCHAMPS (1957) for G. feminalis, isthe almosttotallysmooth pronotum, whichis alsosimilar to G. venezolensis (Fig.

However, G. feminalis is stated as being most similar to G. baeri Régimbart, 1907, from Peru.As the types appear lost, noother treatment of the species exists, andwith no specimens examined from Venezuela clearly matching the description (apart from G. venezolensis), we place this species as a species inquirendum until the types are discovered.

description: The Gas Electron Multiplier (GEM) technology is based on thin polymer foils cladded with copper on both the sides with a regular matrix of holes. Due to the limited manufacturing capacity of CERN, these GEM foils are now commercially manufactured also by Micropack Pvt. Ltd., a company based in India. In order to gain an insight on the behaviour of detectors built using the foils from Micropack, it is important to study various long and short term effects on these foils due to the applied voltage as well as the flux of the incident particles. In this paper, we report the effect on gain stability of triple GEM detectors due to the polarising field induced by X-rays on the polyimide foils. Also, reducing the size of the amplifying structure to the microscopic scale results in a quick mitigation of the space charge effects which in turn helps in attaining a stable gain at very high incident flux. We report on the measurements of variations in the effective gain at very high particle flux of the order of $ \rm MHz/mm^2$

description: We perform a complete analysis of the supersymmetric particle spectrum in the Minimal Supergravity (mSUGRA) model where the soft SUSY breaking scalar masses, gaugino masses and trilinear couplings are unified at the GUT scale, so that the electroweak symmetry is broken radiatively. We show that the present constraints on the Higgs boson and superparticle masses from collider searches and precision measurements still allow for large regions of the mSUGRA parameter space where charginos, neutralinos, sleptons and top squarks as well as the heavier Higgs particles, are light enough to be produced at the next generation of $\ee$ linear colliders with center of mass energy around $\sqrt{s} \sim 800$ GeV, with sizeable cross sections. An important part of this parameter space remains even when we require that the density of the lightest neutralinos left over from the Big Bang, which we calculate using standard assumptions, falls in the range favored by current determinations of the Dark Matter density in the Universe. Already at a c.m. energy of 500 GeV, SUSY particles can be accessible in some parameter range, and if the energy is increased to $\sqrt{s} \simeq 1.2$ TeV, the $e^+e^-$ collider will have a reach for high precision studies of SUSY particles in a range that is comparable to the discovery range of the LHC.

description: In the current contribution, a multicomplex-based pharmacophore modeling approach was employed on the structural proteome of Plasmodium falciparum orotidine-5-monophosphate decarboxylase enzyme (PfOMPDC). Among the constructed pharmacophore models, the representative hypotheses were selected as the primary filter to screen the molecules with the complementary features responsible for showing inhibition. Thereafter, auxiliary evaluations were performed on the screened candidates via drug-likeness and molecular docking studies. Subsequently, the stability of the docked protein-ligand complexes was scrutinized by employing molecular dynamics simulations and molecular mechanics-Poisson Boltzmann surface area based free binding energy calculations. The stability the docked candidates was compared with the highly active crystallized inhibitor (3S9Y-FNU) to seek more potential candidates. All the docked molecules displayed stable dynamic behavior and high binding free energy in comparison to 3S9Y-FNU. The employed workflow resulted in the retrieval of five drug-like candidates with diverse scaffolds that may show inhibitory activity against PfOMPDC and could be further used as the novel scaffold to develop novel antimalarials.

description: A mercury (II) sensor has been proposed based on Fluorescence Resonance Energy Transfer (FRET) between N,N’-dioctadecyl thiacyanine perchlorate (NK) and Octadecyl rhodamine B chloride (RhB). Out of these two molecules, NK is sensitive to Hg2+ ions due to the presence of sulphur atom in it. Accordingly, presence of Hg2+ ions affects the NK fluorescence as well as FRET from NK to RhB. Our results showed that NK fluorescence intensity and FRET efficiency linearly decrease with an increase in Hg2+ ion concentration. With proper optimisation, present system under investigations can be used to sense Hg2+ ions in aqueous solution with a detection limit of 9.13 ppb. Advantage of this present system is that it is very simple compared to the other FRET-based system and also it works under aqueous environment. This method has also been tested using real lake water, and satisfactory results were obtained.

description: Psychological, political, cultural, and even societal factors are entangled in the reasoning and decision-making process towards vaccination, rendering vaccine hesitancy a complex issue. Here, administering a series of surveys via a Facebook-hosted application, we study the worldviews of people that "Liked" supportive or vaccine resilient Facebook Pages. In particular, we assess differences in political viewpoints, moral values, personality traits, and general interests, finding that those sceptical about vaccination, appear to trust less the government, are less agreeable, while they are emphasising more on anti-authoritarian values. Exploring the differences in moral narratives as expressed in the linguistic descriptions of the Facebook Pages, we see that pages that defend vaccines prioritise the value of the family while the vaccine hesitancy pages are focusing on the value of freedom. Finally, creating embeddings based on the health-related likes on Facebook Pages, we explore common, latent interests of vaccine-hesitant people, showing a strong preference for natural cures. This exploratory analysis aims at exploring the potentials of a social media platform to act as a sensing tool, providing researchers and policymakers with insights drawn from the digital traces, that can help design communication campaigns that build confidence, based on the values that also appeal to the socio-moral criteria of people.

description: An effective quark Lagrangian is derived from first principles through bilocal gluon field correlators. It is used to write down equations for baryons, containing both perturbative and nonperturbative fields. As a result one obtains magnetic moments of octet and decuplet baryons without introduction of constituent quark masses and using only string tension as an input. Magnetic moments come out on average in reasonable agreement with experiment, except for nucleons and $Σ^-$. The predictions for the proton and neutron are shown to be in close agreement with the empirical values once we choose the string tension such to yield the proper nucleon mass. Pionic corrections to the nucleon magnetic moments have been estimated. In particular, the total result of the two-body current contributions are found to be small. Inclusion of the anomalous magnetic moment contributions from pion and kaon loops leads to an improvement of the predictions.

description: Model-based instruction offers numerous benefits to students, including increased content knowledge and critical thinking. This study explored the differences in the knowledge outcomes and reasoning processes employed by undergraduate students in an introductory biology lab as they constructed, revised, and simulated a computational model of a prokaryotic gene regulatory system. We analysed post-lesson conceptual models (n = 335) and audio-recorded small group discussions (n = 10) of students that either constructed and revised a computational model and then investigated a pre-constructed computational model or only investigated a pre-constructed computational model to determine the impact of constructing and revising a computational model. No significant differences were found between the mental models of students who constructed and revised a computational model and those who only simulated a pre-constructed computational model. However, this study demonstrated that constructing and revising a model before simulating it offered additional benefits to students by fostering deeper cognitive reasoning processes. Constructing and revising a model elicited more explanatory and evaluative reasoning and prompted students to discuss the underlying mechanisms of the biological system.

description: The incommensurate spin fluctuation of the doped triangular antiferromagnet is studied within the t-J model. It is shown that the commensurate peak near the half-filling is split into six incommensurate peaks in the underdoped and optimally doped regimes. The incommensurability increases with the hole concentration at lower dopings, and saturates at higher dopings. Although the incommensurability is almost energy independent, the weight of these incommensurate peaks decreases with energy and temperature.

description: This thesis delves into the life and art-practice experiences of young Chinese artists (also Chinese-speaking and Sino-phone artists) navigating the art scenes of London. Drawing from a year-long fieldwork study, it explores the nuanced interplay between being in and out, belonging and exclusion within the perceived art worlds. By examining the challenges faced by these artists in reconciling their cultural identities with the expectations of emerging in the art world, the research aims to elucidate the intricate dynamics of being creative and perceiving authenticity. In particular, it interrogates the notion that Chineseness cannot seamlessly merge with diasporic experiences in the realm of artistic perception and practice, uncovering the role and limitations of identity politics in shaping and sometimes constraining artistic expression. Through ethnographic participation and experimental narratives, for example, in forms of play and short fiction, this study engages in conversations on anthropology and literature, creative ethnographies, and the transformative power of artistic expression in transcending cultural boundaries.

description: A novel post-synthetic modification of magnetite@MIL-53(Fe)-NH2 core-shell nanocomposite was performed to extract ultra-trace amounts of Pd(II) ions from the real samples. To explore and optimise the effect of parameters on the preconcentration design of the experiment was employed. The highest removal efficiency in the adsorption step was obtained using the following condition: pH of sample, 6.5; adsorption time, 3.8 min; magnetite@MIL-53(Fe)-NH-PITC NPs amount, 20 mg. The highest extraction recovery (%) was achieved using 0.8 mL of 0.85 mol L−1 HCl as the desorbing solution; and by applying an elution time of 3.5 min. Afterwards, to study the equilibrium data, various adsorption isotherm models were explored. The data showed that the Langmuir model describes the adsorption process better than the other models. Eventually, the maximum adsorption capacity and model constant equal to 100 mg g−1 and 0.11 L mg−1, were obtained, respectively. Besides, the kinetic data were well fitted to the pseudo-second-order based on the highest correlation coefficient that was achieved. The limit of detection, the limit of quantification, and the linear range of the proposed method were 0.05 μg L−1, 0.2 μg L−1, and 0.2–100 μg L−1 (r2 = 0.9936), respectively. The precision was explored as relative standard deviation value at three concentration of 0.5, 10, 75 ng mL−1 (n = 3) that was 12.5%, 9.3% and 6.6%, respectively. Ultimately, the new magnetic adsorbent could be employed for extraction/quantification of ultra-trace amounts of Pd(II) ions in real samples and the relative recovery values were obtained in the range of 88–102%.

description: We present the resolution of a long-standing discrepancy between the moments of parton distributions calculated from lattice QCD and their experimental values. We propose a simple extrapolation formula for the moments of the nonsinglet quark distribution u-d, as a function of quark mass, which embodies the general constraints imposed by the chiral symmetry of QCD. The inclusion of the leading nonanalytic behavior leads to an excellent description of both the lattice data and the experimental values of the moments.

description: Dementia is an overarching term which describes a group of symptoms that result in long-term decline in cognitive functioning that is significant enough to affect daily function. It is caused by a number of different diseases, the most common of which is Alzheimer’s disease. Currently, there are no definitive biomarkers for preclinical or diagnostic use, or which differentiate between underlying disease types. The purpose of this review is to highlight several important areas of research on blood-based biomarkers of dementia, with a specific focus on epigenetic biomarkers. A systematic search of the literature identified 77 studies that compared blood DNA methylation between individuals with dementia and controls and 45 studies that measured microRNA. Very few studies were identified that focused on histone modifications. There were many promising findings from studies in the field of blood-based epigenetic biomarkers of dementia, however, a lack of consistency in study design, technologies, and platforms used for the biomarker measurement, as well as statistical analysis methods, have hampered progress. To date, there are very few findings that have been independently replicated across more than one study, indicating a preponderance of false-positive findings and the field has likely been plagued by positive publication bias. Here, we highlight and discuss several of the limitations of existing studies and provide recommendations for how these could be overcome in future research. A robust framework should be followed to enable development of the most valid and reproducible biomarkers with the strongest clinical utility. Defining a series of biomarkers that may be complimentary to each other could permit a stronger multifactorial biomarker to be developed that would allow for not only accurate dementia diagnosis but preclinical detection.

description: A QCD analysis of the world data on inclusive polarized deep inelastic scattering of leptons on nucleons is presented in leading and next-to-leading order. New parameterizations are derived for the quark and gluon distributions and the value of $α_s(M_Z)$ is determined. Emphasis is put on the derivation of fully correlated error bands for these distributions which are directly applicable to determine experimental errors of other polarized observables. The impact of the variation of both the renormalization and factorization scales on the value of $α_s$ is studied. Finally a factorization-scheme invariant QCD analysis based on the observables $g_1(x,Q^2)$ and $d g_1(x,Q^2)/d \log(Q^2)$ is performed in next-to-leading order, which is compared to the standard analysis.

Delineating the properties of matter in cold, dense QCD

description: The properties of dense QCD matter are delineated through the construction of equations of state which should be consistent with QCD calculations in the low and high density limits, nuclear laboratory experiments, and the neutron star observations. These constraints, together with the causality condition of the sound velocity, are used to develop the picture of hadron-quark continuity in which hadronic matter continuously transforms into quark matter (modulo small 1st order phase transitions). For hadronic matter (at baryon density nB > ~2n0 with n0 ~ 0.16 fm^(-3) being the nuclear saturation density) we use equations of state by Togashi et al. based on microscopic variational many-body calculations, and for quark matter (nB > ~5n0) we construct equations of state using a schematic quark model (with strangeness) whose interactions are motivated by the hadron phenomenology. The region between hadronic and quark matters (~2n0 < nB < ~5n0), which is most difficult to calculate, is treated by highly constrained interpolation between nuclear and quark matter equations of state. The resultant unified equation of state at zero temperature and beta-equilibrium, which we call Quark-Hadron-Crossover (QHC18 and QHC19), is consistent with the measured properties of neutron stars and in addition gives us microscopic insights into the properties of dense QCD matter. In particular to ~10n0 the gluons can remain as non-perturbative as in vacuum and the strangeness can be as abundant as up- and down-quarks at the core of two-solar mass neutron stars. Within our modeling the maximum mass is found less than ~2.35 times solar mass and the baryon density at the core ranges in ~5-8n0.
