description: We described the clinical, laboratory and molecular characteristics of individuals with Hb S (HBB: c.20A>T)/β-thalassemia (Hb S/β-thal) participating in the Recipient Epidemiology and Donor Evaluation Study (REDS-III) Brazil Sickle Cell Disease cohort. HBB gene sequencing was performed to genotype each β-thal mutation. Patients were classified as Hb S/β0-thal, Hb S/β+-thal-severe or Hb S/β+-thal based on prior literature and databases of hemoglobin (Hb) variants. Characteristics of patients with each β-thal mutation were described and the clinical profile of patients grouped into Hb S/β0-thal, Hb S/β+-thal and Hb S/β+-thal-severe were compared. Of the 2793 patients enrolled, 84 (3.0%) had Hb S/β0-thal and 83 (3.0%) had Hb S/β+-thal; 40/83 (48.2%) patients with Hb S/β+-thal had mutations defined as severe. We identified 19 different β-thal mutations, eight Hb S/β0-thal, three Hb S/β+-thal-severe and eight Hb S/β+-thal. The most frequent β0 and β+ mutations were codon 39 (HBB: c.118C>T) and IVS-I-6 (T>C) (HBB: c.92+6T>C), respectively. Individuals with Hb S/β0-thal had a similar clinical and laboratory phenotype when compared to those with Hb S/β+-thal-severe. Individuals with Hb S/β+-thal-severe had significantly lower total Hb and Hb A levels and higher Hb S, white blood cell (WBC) count, platelets and hemolysis markers when compared to those with Hb S/β+-thal. Likewise, individuals with Hb S/β+-thal-severe showed a significantly higher occurrence of hospitalizations, vaso-occlusive events (VOE), acute chest syndrome (ACS), splenic sequestration, blood utilization, and hydroxyurea (HU) therapy.

description: The ALPINE-ALMA large program targets the [CII] 158 $μ$m line and the far-infrared continuum in 118 spectroscopically confirmed star-forming galaxies between z=4.4 and z=5.9. It represents the first large [CII] statistical sample built in this redshift range. We present details of the data processing and the construction of the catalogs. We detected 23 of our targets in the continuum. To derive accurate infrared luminosities and obscured star formation rates, we measured the conversion factor from the ALMA 158 $μ$m rest-frame dust continuum luminosity to the total infrared luminosity (L$_{\rm IR}$) after constraining the dust spectral energy distribution by stacking a photometric sample similar to ALPINE in ancillary single-dish far-infrared data. We found that our continuum detections have a median L$_{\rm IR}$ of 4.4$\times 10^{11}$ L$_\odot$. We also detected 57 additional continuum sources in our ALMA pointings. They are at lower redshift than the ALPINE targets, with a mean photometric redshift of 2.5$\pm$0.2. We measured the 850 $μ$m number counts between 0.35 and 3.5 mJy, improving the current interferometric constraints in this flux density range. We found a slope break in the number counts around 3 mJy with a shallower slope below this value. More than 40 % of the cosmic infrared background is emitted by sources brighter than 0.35 mJy. Finally, we detected the [CII] line in 75 of our targets. Their median [CII] luminosity is 4.8$\times$10$^8$ L$_\odot$ and their median full width at half maximum is 252 km/s. After measuring the mean obscured SFR in various [CII] luminosity bins by stacking ALPINE continuum data, we find a good agreement between our data and the local and predicted SFR-L$_{\rm [CII]}$ relations of De Looze et al. (2014) and Lagache et al. (2018).

description: Integrated pest management (IPM) has become especially important for vegetable crops because of iricreased public pressure to reduce pesticide use on these crops. The funding and adoption of IPM programs for vegetable crops during the 1980's are examined in this report. Vegetable IPM usage statistics are based on data from annual State-level Extension Service reports, which are mandated for federally funded extension IPM programs. According to these reports, both vegetable IPM funding and acreage increased dramatically during the 1980's.

description: We present the spatially-resolved star formation and chemical enrichment history of the Small Magellanic Cloud (SMC) across the entire central $4-degree x 4.5-degree area of the main body, based on UBVI photometry from our Magellanic Clouds Photometric Survey. We find that 1) approximately 50% of the stars that ever formed in the SMC formed prior to 8.4 Gyr ago (z >1.2 for WMAP cosmology), 2) the SMC formed relatively few stars between 8.4 and 3 Gyr ago, 3) there was a rise in the mean star formation rate during the most recent 3 Gyr punctuated by "bursts" at ages of 2.5, 0.4, and 0.06 Gyr, 4) the bursts at 2.5 and 0.4 Gyr are temporally coincident with past perigalactic passages of the SMC with the Milky Way, 5) there is preliminary evidence for a large-scale annular structure in the 2.5 Gyr burst, and 6) the chemical enrichment history derived from our analysis is in agreement with the age-metallicity relation of the SMC's star clusters. Consistent interpretation of the data required an ad hoc correction of 0.1-0.2 mag to the B-V colors of 25% of the stars; the cause of this anomaly is unknown, but we show that it does not strongly influence our results.

description: The study explores, on a State-by-State basis, the issue of income inequality between the metro and nonmetro populations and among nonmetro counties. Four specific measures are developed for each State: 1) the difference between 1987 average metro and nonmetro per capita income, 2) the change in this difference between 1979 and 1987, 3) the level of inequality in average county income among nonmetro counties (as measured by the Gini coefficient) and 4) the change in that measure over the 1979-87 period. State rankings on each measure are also presented. In addition, State metro and nonmetro economic performance, as measured by per capita income growth, is compared with performance as measured by earnings growth, population growth, and net migration. The analysis argues that a Federal rural development policy merits strong consideration as a step toward reversing the rapid divergence among State per capita incomes which occurred during the 1980's.

description: The aim of the present study was to determine the content of residual monomer methyl methacrylate (MMA) in cold and hot polymerized poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), both widely applicable in dentistry, by using MHE-GC-MS (multiple headspace extraction analysis by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry) in combination with GC-FID (gas chromatography with flame-ionization detection). The samples of PMMA were obtained by free-radical polymerization of MMA at room temperature (cold polymerized PMMA) and at 100 °C (hot polymerized PMMA), according to the manufacturer’s instructions. The MHE-GC-MS method consisted of ten successive extractions of MMA from the polymerized samples. According to the constructed calibration curve, the content of residual MMA in PMMA samples (mgMMA/gPMMA) was determined. Intramuscular implantation of sample materials was performed in experimental animals (rats) in order to demonstrate potential adverse effects of the unpolymerized residual reactants to the tissue in direct contact with polymeric implants. The content of residual monomer in cold polymerized PMMA was higher (15.75 mgMMA/gPMMA) in comparison to hot polymerized PMMA (10.96 mgMMA/gPMMA). The implanted samples of cold-polymerized acrylic resin showed intense inflammatory response of the surrounding tissue. According to the obtained results, hot polymerized PMMA is safer for use in dentistry.

description: In 1932, the West Virginia Legislature adopted and in a referendum the voters approved a Tax Limitation Amendment (TLA) to the State Constitution, which had features similar to California's Proposition 13. While the economic situation at the time and in the State were very different than in California in 1977, a study of the long run impacts of the TLA can be useful in helping understand and cope with problems that arise. The major impacts of the TLA were on services, other taxes, and the transfer of functions from local government units to the State. These will be examined after a brief discussion of the TLA.

description: This paper assesses the impacts of abolishing the direct payments of the CAP using the model IFM-CAP (Individual Farm Model for CAP Analysis). IFM-CAP simulates the behaviour of each individual farmer in the EU-FADN (Farm Accountancy Data Network). Simulation results show that some farm-types experience an increase in income due to the price and yields changes (specialist granivores and other fieldcrops), while farms that are more dependent on CAP subsides are negatively affected (e.g. specialist cattle, specialist COP and smallest economic size farms). As much as 64 % of farms loose more than EUR 100 per hectare of income if direct payments are eliminated.

description: Plagiarism has become a recurrent challenge in higher education institutions, threatening the integrity of universities and their academic standards. The exacerbation of this issue can be largely linked to the escalating presence of online resources, which are easily accessible to knowledge and information communities worldwide. Many universities have thus instituted reactive measures that focus on detecting and policing plagiarism with little consideration of proactive and educational measures that can address the primary reasons for plagiarism and foster a community of academic integrity on their campuses. The purpose of this paper is, therefore, to interrogate the treatment of plagiarism in universities, and provide recommendations for better educational approaches to address this issue in proactive ways that also acknowledge the complex, contextual background of the South African higher education landscape. Understanding the primary reasons students plagiarise is critical in finding educational rather than punitive solutions to address the issue.

description: Anisotropic interparticle correlations in the simple cubic lattice of single-domain ferroparticles (SCLF) are studied using both theory and computer simulation. The theory is based on the Helmholtz free energy expansion like classical virial series up to the second virial coefficient. The analytical formula for the Helmholtz free energy is incorporated in a logarithmic form to minimize the effects of series truncation. The new theoretical approach, including discrete summation over lattice nodes coordinates, is compared critically against the classical virial expansion of the Helmholtz free energy for the dipolar hard sphere fluid; the main differences between the Helmholtz free energy of SCLF and dipolar hard sphere fluid are discussed. The theoretical results for the Helmholtz free energy, the magnetization, and the initial magnetic susceptibility of the SCLF are compared against Molecular Dynamic simulation data. In all cases, theoretical predictions using logarithmic form of the Helmholtz free energy are seen to be superior, but they only have an applicability range of the effective dipolar coupling constant $λ_e < 1.5$. For highest values of $λ_e$, the structural transition of the magnetic dipoles in SCLF is observed in Molecular Dynamic simulation. It has been shown that for $λ_e \gtrsim 2$, an antiferromagnetic order appears in the system.

A contextual framework is proposed as dynamic and relational in supporting three different ontexts: Reusing, Publication and Curation, which are individually constructed but overlapped with major conceptual elements.
A Relations for Reusing (R4R) ontology has been devised for modeling these overlapping conceptual components (Article, Data, Code, Provence, and License) for interlinking research outputs and cultural heritage data. In particular, packaging and citation relations are key to build up interpretations for dynamic contexts.

description: Agricultural support in particularly single farm payment (SFP) in the Common Agricultural Policy has encountered more and more challenges. In this study, we have used two hypothetical policy impact scenarios, a SAM multiplier analysis and a static CGE model to mimic the knock-on impacts in the short term, and equilibrium impacts in the long term, of removing the single farm payment on the agri-food sector, rural and overall economy in NI. In the two policy impact scenarios, the production effects of the single farm payment is assumed to be under two extreme cases: either a pure government income transfer to rural households (Income Transfer Scenario) or SFP is still fully coupled to agricultural production (Fully Coupled Scenario), respectively. Counterfactual analysis suggests that In NI removing SFP is likely to have limited impact on overall economy but it will improve the overall economic efficiency due to resource reallocation and savings from the exit of marginal agricultural production / farmers. For agri-food sector and rural economy, a strong effect will be felt in the short term and the effect will be diminishing via supply chain and in the long term the impact will be modest.

description: Studies of the electronic spectral function in cuprates by Angle-Resolved Photo-Emission Spectroscopy reveal unusual features in the pseudogap phase that persist in the superconducting phase. We address here these observations based on the recently proposed idea that the pseudogap is due to the fractionalization of modulated particle-particle pairs (a Pair Density Wave) into uniform particle-particle and modulated particle-hole pairs. The constraint that appears between these two types of pairs can be seen has an amplitude for the pseudogap energy scale. This constraint directly modify the electronic spectral function in the pseudogap phase. We derive a self-consistent equation for the pseudogap amplitude and show that it leads to the formation of Fermi arcs. The band dispersion obtained in the anti-nodal region is in good agreement with experimental ARPES observations in Pb$_{0.55}$Bi$_{1.5}$Sr$_{1.6}$La$_{0.4}$CuO$_{6+δ}$ (Bi2201) and present a back-bending that goes to the Fermi level as we go away from the antinodal region. We also discuss the temperature dependence of the ARPES spectrum in the pseudogap and in the superconducting state.

description: A multi-pixel photon sensor with single-photon sensitivity has been developed, based on a technology of a hybrid photo-detector (HPD) consisting of a photocathode and a multi-pixel avalanche diode (MP-AD). The developed HPD has a proximity focused structure, where a photocathode and an MP-AD are facing each other with a small gap of 2.5 mm. The MP-AD, which has an effective area of 16x16 mm2 composed of 8x8 pixels, has been specially designed for the HPD. The gain of the HPD reaches 5x10^4, sufficiently high to detect single photons with a timing resolution better than 100 ps. Number of photoelectrons up to four can be clearly identified in a pulse-height spectrum as distinct peaks, thanks to the low noise characteristics of the HPD. It is also demonstrated that the HPD can be operated with good performance in a magnetic field as high as 1.5 T

description: If the neutrino is a Majorana particle, low-energy lepton-number-violating (LNV) processes, such as neutrinoless double-beta ($0νββ$) decay, are possible. It may also be possible to observe high-energy $0νββ$-like LNV processes at the LHC. These are distinguished by the presence of same-sign dileptons in the final state (e.g., ${\bar u} d \to t {\bar b} \, e^- μ^-$). In this paper, we show that CP-violating triple products (TPs) may be present in the process, and may be measurable at the LHC. If a nonzero TP were observed, it would give us much information about the underlying new physics (NP). We would know that there are (at least) two interfering NP amplitudes, with different weak phases and different Lorentz structures. And if we had some knowledge of the NP, e.g., by direct production of NP particles, we could get information about the magnitudes and relative phases of its couplings.
description: 8 pages, 1 figure. Important changes to the paper: we now focus on a single NP model, and include a detailed discussion about the prospects for the observation of TPs at the LHC

Alone with Company: Studying Individual and Social Players' In-game Behaviors in Adaptive Gamification
Creators: name: Loria, Enrica

description: Humans procrastinate and avoid performing activities that they deem dull, repetitive, and out of their comfort zone. Gamification was conceived to reverse the situation by turning those activities into fun and entertaining actions exploiting game-like elements. In practice, however, many challenges arise. Gameful environments cannot satisfy every player's preference and motivational need with a one-fits-all strategy. However, meeting players' motivational affordances can provide intrinsic rewards rather than extrinsic (e.g., points and badges). Producing intrinsic rewards is desirable as they are more likely to foster long-term retention than the extrinsic counterpart. Therefore, gamified systems should be designed to learn and understand players' preferences and motivational drivers to generate specific adaptation strategies for each player. Those adaptation strategies govern the procedural generation of personalized game elements - examples are task difficulty, social-play versus solo-play, or aesthetic tools. However, an appropriate personalization requires intelligent and effective player profiling mechanisms. Player profiles can be retrieved through the analysis of telemetry data, and thus in-game behaviors. In this project, we studied players' individual and social behaviors to understand their personalities and identities within the game. Specifically, we analyzed data from an open-world, persuasive, gamified system: Play&Go. Play&Go implements game-like mechanics to instill more ecological transportation habits among its users. The gamified app offers various ways for players to interact with the game and among one another. Despite Play&Go being one of the few examples of gamification implementing more diverse game mechanics than solely points and leaderboards, it still does not reach the complexity of AAA entertainment games. Thus, it limits the applicability of an in-depth analysis of players' behaviors, constrained by the type of available features. Yet, we argue that gameful systems still provide enough information to allow content adaptation. In this work, we study players' in-game activity from different perspectives to explore gamification's potential. Towards this, we analyzed telemetry data to (1) learn from players' activity, (2) extract their profiles, and (3) understand social dynamics in force within the game. Our results show how players' experience in gamified systems is closer to games than expected, especially in social environments. Hence, telemetry data is a precious source of knowledge also in gamification and can help retain information on players' churn, preferences, and social influence. Finally, we propose a modular theoretical framework for adaptive gamification to generate personalized content designed to learn players' preferences iteratively.

description: We have designed and tested a new relativistic Lagrangian hydrodynamics code, which treats gravity in the conformally flat approximation to general relativity. We have tested the resulting code extensively, finding that it performs well for calculations of equilibrium single-star models, collapsing relativistic dust clouds, and quasi-circular orbits of equilibrium solutions. By adding in a radiation reaction treatment, we compute the full evolution of a coalescing binary neutron star system. We find that the amount of mass ejected from the system, much less than a percent, is greatly reduced by the inclusion of relativistic gravitation. The gravity wave energy spectrum shows a clear divergence away from the Newtonian point-mass form, consistent with the form derived from relativistic quasi-equilibrium fluid sequences.

description: Allosteric changes modulate the enzymatic activity, leading to activation or inhibition of the molecular target. Understanding the induced fit accommodation mechanism of a ligand in its lowest-free energy state and the subsequent conformational changes induced in the protein are important questions for drug design. In the present study, molecular dynamics (MD) simulations, binding free energy calculations, and principal component analysis (PCA) were applied to analyze the glycerol-3-phosphate dehydrogenase of Leishmania mexicana (LmGPDH) conformational changes induced by its cofactor and substrate binding. GPDH is a nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD)-dependent enzyme, which has been reported as an interesting target for drug discovery and development against leishmaniasis. Despite its relevance for glycolysis and pentose phosphate pathways, the structural flexibility and conformational motions of LmGPDH in complex with NADH and dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) remain unexplored. Here, we analyzed the conformational dynamics of the enzyme-NADH complex (cofactor), and the enzyme-NADH-DHAP complex (adduct), mapped the hydrogen-bond interactions for the complexes and pointed some structural determinants of the enzyme that emerge from these contacts to NADH and DHAP. Finally, we proposed a consistent mechanism for the conformational changes on the first step of the reversible redox conversion of dihydroxyacetone phosphate to glycerol 3-phosphate, indicating key residues and interactions that could be further explored in drug discovery.

description: We present a low-energy model describing the reconstruction of the electronic spectrum in twisted bilayers of honeycomb crystals with broken sublattice symmetry. The resulting moiré patterns are classified into two families with different symmetry. In both cases, flat bands appear at relatively large angles, without any magic angle condition. Transitions between them give rise to sharp resonances in the optical absorption spectrum at frequencies well below the gap of the monolayer. Owing to their chiral symmetry, twisted bilayers display circular dichroism, i.e., different absorption of left and right circularly-polarized light. This optical activity is a nonlocal property determined by the stacking. In hexagonal boron nitride, sensitivity to the stacking leads to strikingly different circular dichroism in the two types of moirés. Our calculations exemplify how subtle properties of the electronic wavefunctions encoded in current correlations between the layers control physical observables of moiré materials.

Diamagnetic Screening of the Magnetic Field in Accreting Neutron Stars II -- The effect of Polar Cap Widening

Publisher: name: arXiv

description: Recently, we have proposed a model for the screening of the magnetic field of an accreting neutron star by the accreted material flowing from the polar regions towards the equator and sinking there underneath the surface (Choudhuri & Konar). In this model it was assumed that the flow pattern remained stationary over time. However, as the surface magnetic field weakens, the accretion takes place over a wider region around the pole, making the flow more radial and isotropic. In the present work, we extend this two-dimensional model to include the time-dependence of the flow of the accreted material. The final radial flow is found to be less efficient in screening the magnetic field compared to the initial tangential flow. After an initial phase of rapid decay, the magnetic field slowly reaches an asymptotic value when the accretion becomes nearly isotropic and radial. Assuming the initial extent of the polar cap to be $\sim 5^0$--$10^0$, a simple geometric argument suggests that the magnetic field should decay by 3-4 orders of magnitude before stabilizing to an asymptotic value, consistent with the magnetic fields observed in millisecond pulsars.

description: It is shown that the enhanced (nonlinear) realignment criterion is equivalent to the family of linear criteria based on correlation tensor. These criteria generalize the original (linear) realignment criterium and give rise to the family of entanglement witnesses. An appropriate limiting procedure is proposed which leads to a novel class of witnesses which are as powerful as the enhanced realignment criterion.
