description: Ultraviolet (UV) observations of Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) probe the outermost layers of the explosion, and UV spectra of SNe Ia are expected to be extremely sensitive to differences in progenitor composition and the details of the explosion. Here we present the first study of a sample of high signal-to-noise ratio SN Ia spectra that extend blueward of 2900 A. We focus on spectra taken within 5 days of maximum brightness. Our sample of ten SNe Ia spans the majority of the parameter space of SN Ia optical diversity. We find that SNe Ia have significantly more diversity in the UV than in the optical, with the spectral variance continuing to increase with decreasing wavelengths until at least 1800 A (the limit of our data). The majority of the UV variance correlates with optical light-curve shape, while there are no obvious and unique correlations between spectral shape and either ejecta velocity or host-galaxy morphology. Using light-curve shape as the primary variable, we create a UV spectral model for SNe Ia at peak brightness. With the model, we can examine how individual SNe vary relative to expectations based on only their light-curve shape. Doing this, we confirm an excess of flux for SN 2011fe at short wavelengths, consistent with its progenitor having a subsolar metallicity. While most other SNe Ia do not show large deviations from the model, ASASSN-14lp has a deficit of flux at short wavelengths, suggesting that its progenitor was relatively metal rich.

description: Background: Current evidence suggests that the information needs of people with diabetes mellitus differ across patient groups. With a view to being able to provide individualized information, this study aims to identify (i) the diabetes-related information needs of people with diabetes mellitus; (ii) different subgroups of people with specific information needs; and (iii) associated characteristics of the identified subgroups, such as sociodemographic characteristics, diabetes-related comorbidities, and well-being. Methods: This cross-sectional study was based on data from 837 respondents with diabetes mellitus who participated in the population-based KORA (Cooperative Health Research in the Augsburg Region) Health Survey 2016 in Southern Germany (KORA GEFU 4 study) (45.6% female, mean age 71.1 years, 92.8% Type 2 diabetes). Diabetes-related information needs were assessed with a questionnaire asking about patients’ information needs concerning 11 diabetes-related topics, e.g. ‘long-term complications’ and ‘treatment/therapy’. Subgroups of people with different information needs and associated characteristics were identified using latent class analysis. Results: We identified the following four classes of people with different information needs: ‘high needs on all topics’, ‘low needs on all topics’, ‘moderate needs with a focus on complications and diabetes in everyday life’, and ‘advanced needs with a focus on social and legal aspects and diabetes research’. The classes differed significantly in age, years of education, type of diabetes, diabetes duration, diabetes-related comorbidities, smoking behaviour, diabetes education, current level of information, and time preference. Conclusions: Knowledge about different patient subgroups can be useful for tailored information campaigns or physician-patient interactions. Further research is needed to analyse health care needs in these groups, changes in information needs over the course of the disease, and prospective health outcomes.

Quantum simulation of the dynamical Casimir effect with trapped ions

name: Hauke, Philipp
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2015
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Quantum vacuum fluctuations are a direct manifestation of Heisenberg's uncertainty principle. The dynamical Casimir effect allows for the observation of these vacuum fluctuations by turning them into real, observable photons. However, the observation of this effect in a cavity QED experiment would require the rapid variation of the length of a cavity with relativistic velocities, a daunting challenge. Here, we propose a quantum simulation of the dynamical Casimir effect using an ion chain confined in a segmented ion trap. We derive a discrete model that enables us to map the dynamics of the multimode radiation field inside a variable-length cavity to radial phonons of the ion crystal. We perform a numerical study comparing the ion-chain quantum simulation under realistic experimental parameters to an ideal Fabry-Perot cavity, demonstrating the viability of the mapping. The proposed quantum simulator, therefore, allows for probing the photon (respectively phonon) production caused by the dynamical Casimir effect on the single photon level.

description: Fibroblast growth factor 23 (FGF23) is a hormone mainly secreted by bone cells. Its most prominent effects are the regulation of renal phosphate reabsorption and calcitriol (active vitamin D, 1,25(OH)2D3) formation, effects dependent on its co-receptor αKlotho. Besides these actions, further paracrine and endocrine effects exist. The production of FGF23 is regulated by 1,25(OH)2D3, parathyroid hormone, dietary phosphate intake, iron status, as well as inflammation. Glucocorticoids are hormones with anti-inflammatory properties and are, therefore, widely used for acute and chronic inflammatory diseases, autoimmune disorders, and malignancies. The present study explored whether glucocorticoids influence the production of FGF23 in vitro as well as in mice. Fgf23 transcription was analyzed by semi-quantitative real-time PCR. Serum concentrations of FGF23 and 1,25(OH)2D3 were measured by ELISA. Urinary phosphate and Ca2+ excretion were determined in metabolic cages. As a result, in UMR106 rat osteoblast-like cells and in MC3T3-E1 cells, both, dexamethasone and prednisolone, downregulated Fgf23 transcription and FGF23 protein synthesis. Dexamethasone increased Dmp1 and Phex (encoding FGF23-regulating genes) as well as Nfkbia (encoding NFκB inhibitor IκBα) transcription in UMR106 cells. In mice, a single injection of dexamethasone or prednisolone was followed by a significant decrease of serum C-terminal and intact FGF23 concentration and bone Fgf23 mRNA expression within 12 h. These effects were paralleled by increased renal phosphate excretion and enhanced 1,25(OH)2D3 formation. We conclude that a single glucocorticoid treatment strongly downregulates the FGF23 plasma concentration.

description: We investigate the effect of the inclusion of relativistic Coulomb terms in a confined-isospin-density-dependent-mass (CIDDM) model of strange quark matter (SQM). We found that if we include Coulomb term in scalar density form, SQM equation of state (EOS) at high densities is stiffer but if we include Coulomb term in vector density form is softer than that of standard CIDDM model. We also investigate systematically the role of each term of the extended CIDDM model. Compared with what was reported in Ref.~\cite {ref:isospin}, we found the stiffness of SQM EOS is controlled by the interplay among the the oscillator harmonic, isospin asymmetry and Coulomb contributions depending on the parameter's range of these terms. We have found that the absolute stable condition of SQM and the mass of 2 $M_\odot$ pulsars can constrain the parameter of oscillator harmonic $κ_1$ $\approx 0.53$ in the case Coulomb term excluded. If the Coulomb term is included, for the models with their parameters are consistent with SQM absolute stability condition, the $2.0~M_{\odot}$ constraint more prefer the maximum mass prediction of model with scalar Coulomb term than that of model with vector Coulomb term. On contrary, the high densities EOS predicted by model with vector Coulomb is more compatible with recent pQCD result \cite{ref:pressure} than that predicted by model with scalar Coulomb. Furthermore, we also observed the quark composition in a very high density region depends quite sensitively on the kind of Coulomb term used.

description: In 1966, Cummins introduced the "tree graph": the tree graph $\mathbf{T}(G)$ of a graph $G$ (possibly infinite) has all its spanning trees as vertices, and distinct such trees correspond to adjacent vertices if they differ in just one edge, i.e., two spanning trees $T_1$ and $T_2$ are adjacent if $T_2 = T_1 -e +f$ for some edges $e\in T_1$ and $f\notin T_1$. The tree graph of a connected graph need not be connected. To obviate this difficulty we define the "forest graph": let $G$ be a labeled graph of order $α$, finite or infinite, and let $\mathfrak{N}(G)$ be the set of all labeled maximal forests of $G$. The forest graph of $G$, denoted by $\mathbf{F}(G)$, is the graph with vertex set $\mathfrak{N}(G)$ in which two maximal forests $F_1$, $F_2$ of $G$ form an edge if and only if they differ exactly by one edge, i.e., $F_2 = F_1 -e +f$ for some edges $e\in F_1$ and $f\notin F_1$. Using the theory of cardinal numbers, Zorn's lemma, transfinite induction, the axiom of choice and the well-ordering principle, we determine the $\mathbf{F}$-convergence, $\mathbf{F}$-divergence, $\mathbf{F}$-depth and $\mathbf{F}$-stability of any graph $G$. In particular it is shown that a graph $G$ (finite or infinite) is $\mathbf{F}$-convergent if and only if $G$ has at most one cycle of length 3. The $\mathbf{F}$-stable graphs are precisely $K_3$ and $K_1$. The $\mathbf{F}$-depth of any graph $G$ different from $K_3$ and $K_1$ is finite. We also determine various parameters of $\mathbf{F}(G)$ for an infinite graph $G$, including the number, order, size, and degree of its components.

description: Massive WR stars are evolved massive stars characterized by strong mass-loss. Hypothetically, they can form either as single stars or as mass donors in close binaries. About 40% of the known WR stars are confirmed binaries, raising the question as to the impact of binarity on the WR population. By performing a spectral analysis of all multiple WR systems in the SMC, we obtain the full set of stellar parameters for each individual component. Mass-luminosity relations are tested, and the importance of the binary evolution channel is assessed. The spectral analysis is performed with the PoWR model atmosphere code by superimposing model spectra that correspond to each component. Evolutionary channels are constrained using the BPASS evolution tool. Significant Hydrogen mass fractions (0.1 - 0.4) are detected in all WN components. A comparison with mass-luminosity relations and evolutionary tracks implies that the majority of the WR stars in our sample are not chemically homogeneous. The WR component in the binary AB 6 is found to be very luminous (Log L ~ 6.3 [Lsun]) given its orbital mass (~10 Msun), presumably because of observational contamination by a third component. Evolutionary paths derived for our objects suggest that Roche lobe overflow had occurred in most systems, affecting their evolution. However, the implied initial masses are large enough for the primaries to have entered the WR phase, regardless of binary interaction. Together with the results for the putatively single SMC WR stars, our study suggests that the binary evolution channel does not dominate the formation of WR stars at SMC metallicity.

description: The quantum-to-classical transition is considered from the point of view of contractions of associative algebras. Various methods and ideas to deal with contractions of associative algebras are discussed that account for a large family of examples. As an instance of them, the commutative algebra of functions in phase space, corresponding to classical physical observables, is obtained as a contraction of the Moyal star-product which characterizes the quantum case. Contractions of associative algebras associated to Lie algebras are discussed, in particular the Weyl-Heisenberg and $SU(2)$ groups are considered.

Ziel: Beschreibung der Methoden zur Erhebung sowie Berechnung der Häufigkeit kardiovaskulärer und metabolischer Erkrankungen in der NAKO. Material und Methoden: 101.806 Teilnehmende (20–75 Jahre, 46 % Männer) aus 18 bundesweiten Studienzentren wurden in einem computergestützten, standardisierten persönlichen Interview gebeten, anhand einer vorgegebenen Liste anzugeben, welche Erkrankungen bei ihnen jemals ärztlich diagnostiziert wurden, darunter auch kardiovaskuläre und metabolische Erkrankungen. Für Letztere wurden deren geschlechtsspezifische relative Häufigkeiten berechnet und diese mit Referenzzahlen verglichen. Ergebnisse: Bezogen auf die kardiovaskulären Erkrankungen berichteten 3,5 % der Männer und 0,8 % der Frauen, jemals einen Herzinfarkt diagnostiziert bekommen zu haben, 4,8 % bzw. 1,5 % eine Angina pectoris, 3,5 % bzw. 2,5 % eine Herzinsuffizienz, 10,1 % bzw. 10,4 % Herzrhythmusstörungen, 2,7 % bzw. 1,8 % eine Claudicatio intermittens und 34,6 % bzw. 27,0 % eine arterielle Hypertonie. Die Häufigkeit berichteter diagnostizierter metabolischer Erkrankungen lag bei 8,1 % bzw. 5,8 % für Diabetes mellitus, bei 28,6 % bzw. 24,5 % für Hyperlipidämie, bei 7,9 % bzw. 2,4 % für Gicht und bei 10,1 % bzw. 34,3 % für Schilddrüsenerkrankungen. Die beobachteten Häufigkeiten lagen insgesamt etwas niedriger als Vergleichsdaten für Deutschland. Diskussion: Die NAKO erhebt von allen Teilnehmenden selbst berichtete, ärztlich diagnostizierte kardiovaskuläre und metabolische Erkrankungen und stellt damit eine Datenressource für weitergehende kardiometabolische Forschungsfragestellungen dar.

description: The Dirac bands and flat bands are difficult to coexist because they represent two extreme ends of electronic properties. However, in this paper, we propose a carbon-Kagome-lattice (CKL) family based on first-principles calculations, and the coexistence of Dirac and flat bands are observed in this series of three-dimensional carbon structures. The flat bands are originated from the orbital interactions of the Kagome lattices, while the Dirac bands are related to the carbon zigzag chains. A tight-binding model is used to explain the various band structures in different CKLs. The coexistence of flat and Dirac bands around the Fermi level implies that CKL structures maybe can serve as superconductors. In addition, electronic properties of the thinnest CKL slabs, only consisting of benzene rings, are studied. Flat bands are found in the band spectra of the two-dimensional structures, and split into spin-up and spin-down bands because of strong correlated effect in the case of hole doping.

description: Glacial refugia are centers of high biodiversity. Therefore, knowledge on their locations and reactions of associated populations and landscapes to climatic changes is crucial for conservation management. We here investigated the biogeography of a butterfly species linked to open forest habitats. Using mitochondrial and nuclear markers in combination with Bayesian simulations, we analyzed the location and age of potential glacial refugia of the species. We identified five putative refugia in Europe. Considering the ecological needs of our study species, tree density within these refugial areas, in contrast to earlier assumptions, must have exceeded the level of individually scattered trees. Our results also provide evidence that especially the refuge areas in the Carpathians were previously underestimated regarding their age: the refugia in the Southern Carpathians presented suitable conditions throughout several glacial cycles, probably since the Mindel or Riss cycles. Additionally, our analyses provided support for a forest refugium near the Tatra Mountains persisting the last glacial maximum. Our results underline the usefulness of this and probably other butterfly species as indicators of forest refugia.
Topologically-Protected Soliton States in Rhombohedrally-Stacked Graphite
Creators: name: Muten, James
Publisher: name: Lancaster University
Year: 2024

description: We investigate the low-energy electronic properties of
 rhombohedrally-stacked

 graphite (RG). Chapter 1 discusses the history of graphene and provides
 the context for our work. In Chapter 2 we introduce the tight-binding
 model and demonstrate its application in describing the Hamiltonians and
 electronic band structures of several graphitic systems. We also present
 three one-dimensional models describing topological insulators, and show,
 through dimensional reduction, that these are similar to the graphene
 systems under investigation. Chapters 3 and 4 describe the original
 research work in the thesis. Chapter 3 describes stacking faults in thin
 films of RG.We find that each stacking fault produces two localised
 low-energy states near the Dirac points. In comparison to the
 one-dimensional models, such faults are effectively a soliton-antisoliton
 pair, and it is impossible to realise a single, isolated state on a
 stacking fault in RG. In Chapter 4 we consider rhombohedrally-stacked
 systems with alternating onsite energies, and, particularly, the
 properties of solitonsconsisting of a change in texture of the onsite
 energies. We show that, depending on parameter values, a single localised
 energy band may be isolated within the bulk band gap, in contrast to
 stacking faults in RG. For both types of faults, in Chapters 3 and 4, we
 derive low-energy effective Hamiltonians to describe hybridisation of the
 localised soliton states with localised surface states, and we model the
 robustness of the properties of these states in the presence of disorder.

description: Managed forests are a key component of strategies aimed at tackling the climate and biodiversity crises. Tapping this potential requires a better understanding of the complex, simultaneous effects of forest management on biodiversity, carbon stocks and productivity. Here, we used data of 135 one-hectare plots from southwestern Germany to disentangle the relative influence of gradients of management intensity, carbon stocks and forest productivity on different components of forest biodiversity (birds, bats, insects, plants) and tree-related microhabitats. We tested whether the composition of taxonomic groups varies gradually or abruptly along these gradients. The richness of taxonomic groups was rather insensitive to management intensity, carbon stocks and forest productivity. Despite the low explanatory power of the main predictor variables, forest management had the greatest relative influence on richness of insects and tree-related microhabitats, while carbon stocks influenced richness of bats, birds, vascular plants and pooled taxa. Species composition changed relatively abruptly along the management intensity gradient, while changes along carbon and productivity gradients were more gradual. We conclude that moderate increases in forest management intensity and carbon stocks, within the range of variation observed in our study system, might be compatible with biodiversity and climate mitigation objectives in managed forests.

description: Some 34 million people in the word have Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD) a long-term sequela of Acute Rheumatic Fever (ARF). RHD is disease of poverty and social disadvantage. The majority of individuals with RHD do not have a documented history of ARF and thereby miss out on costeffective secondary prevention strategies. Patients with RHD present late with complications of RHD and die at a young age due to lack of access to cardiosurgical services. Early diagnosis of RHD, may be it in a clinical setting or as part of systematic screening programs, could allow for case detection at a stage of illness when secondary prophylaxis could have a greater chance of success in preventing morbidity and mortality. The thesis starts by systematically reviewing barriers to RHD control and setting the first global target towards elimination of RHD as public health agenda. Then it assesses the knowledge gap around timing of life-saving cardiosurgical strategies and about their long-term outcomes in children with RHD. At the commencement of this thesis, no evidence-based guidelines existed to define mild RHD in individuals without a history of ARF. We knew that clinical diagnosis of RHD based on auscultation was neither sensitive or specific. Echocardiography is a noninvasive diagnostic tool that has shown to be a vital for cardiac diagnoses, yet no criteria on how to distinguish normal echocardiographic findings from mild RHD existed. This thesis highlights these gaps and presents the contemporary long-term outcomes of cardiac surgery in children and argues for early detection of RHD using technology-based solutions –echocardiography. It presents the 2012 World Heart Federation (WHF) evidence-based guidelines for echocardiographic diagnosis of RHD to replace the stethoscope. The guidelines aim to facilitate early case detection of individuals with RHD without a prior history of ARF and to allow for standardised reporting on the global stage. This thesis contains the validation study that assesses the reliability of the WHF criteria and then moves to abbreviated protocols that could be implemented on cheaper hand-held echocardiography machines and performed by minimally trained health workers in resource-poor settings where RHD is most prevalent. The thesis concludes by assessing if RHD fulfils the public health requirements of a disease suitable for screening.

description: SONG is a global ground based network of 1 meter telescopes for stellar time-domain science, an international collaboration involving many countries across the world. In order to enable a favourable duty cycle, the SONG network plans to create a homogeneous distribution of 4 nodes in each of the northern and southern hemispheres. A natural possibility was building one of the northern nodes in East Asia, preferably on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. During the last decade, a great deal of effort has been invested in searching for high a quality site for ground based astronomy in China, since this has been one of the major concerns for the development of Chinese astronomy. A number of sites on the plateau have been in operation for many years, but most of them are used only for radio astronomy, as well as small optical telescopes for applied astronomy. Several potential sites for large optical instruments have been identified by the plateau site survey, but as yet none of them have been adequately quantitatively characterised. Here we present results from a detailed multi-year study of the Delingha site, which was eventually selected for the SONG-China node. We also describe the site monitoring system that will allow an isolated SONG and 50BiN node to operate safely in an automated mode.

description: Infectious complications are the major cause of morbidity and mortality after solid organ and stem cell transplantation. To better understand host and environmental factors associated with an increased risk of infection as well as the effect of infections on function and survival of transplanted organs, we established the DZIF Transplant Cohort, a multicentre prospective cohort study within the organizational structure of the German Center for Infection Research. At time of transplantation, heart-, kidney-, lung-, liver-, pancreas- and hematopoetic stem cell- transplanted patients are enrolled into the study. Follow-up visits are scheduled at 3, 6, 9, 12 months after transplantation, and annually thereafter; extracurricular visits are conducted in case of infectious complications. Comprehensive standard operating procedures, web-based data collection and monitoring tools as well as a state of the art biobanking concept for blood, purified PBMCs, urine, and faeces samples ensure high quality of data and biosample collection. By collecting detailed information on immunosuppressive medication, infectious complications, type of infectious agent and therapy, as well as by providing corresponding biosamples, the cohort will establish the foundation for a broad spectrum of studies in the field of infectious diseases and transplant medicine. By January 2020, baseline data and biosamples of about 1400 patients have been collected. We plan to recruit 3500 patients by 2023, and continue follow-up visits and the documentation of infectious events at least until 2025. Information about the DZIF Transplant Cohort is available at https://www.dzif.de/en/working-group/transplant-cohort.

description: Multiferroic bismuth ferrite, BiFeO3, offers a vast landscape to study the interplay between different ferrroic orders. Another aspect which is equally exciting, and yet underutilized, is the possibility of large-scale ordering of domains. Along with symmetry-driven bulk photovoltaic effect, BiFeO3 presents opportunities to conceptualize novel light-based devices. In this work, we investigate the evolution of the bulk photovoltaic effect in BiFeO3 thin films with stripe-domain pattern as the polarization of light is modulated from linear to elliptical to circular. The open-circuit voltages under circularly polarized light exceed ± 25 V. The anomalous character of the effect arises from the contradiction with the analytical assessment involving tensorial analysis. The assessment highlights the need for a domain-specific interaction of light which is further analyzed with spatially-resolved Raman measurements. Appropriate positioning of electrodes allows observation of a switch-like photovoltaic effect, i.e., ON and OFF state, by changing the helicity of circularly polarized light.
Three-Index Symmetric Matter Representations of SU(2) in F-Theory from Non-Tate Form Weierstrass Models

description: We give an explicit construction of a class of F-theory models with matter in the three-index symmetric (4) representation of SU(2). This matter is realized at codimension two loci in the F-theory base where the divisor carrying the gauge group is singular; the associated Weierstrass model does not have the form associated with a generic SU(2) Tate model. For 6D theories, the matter is localized at a triple point singularity of arithmetic genus g=3 in the curve supporting the SU(2) group. This is the first explicit realization of matter in F-theory in a representation corresponding to a genus contribution greater than one. The construction is realized by "unHiggsing" a model with a U(1) gauge factor under which there is matter with charge q=3. The resulting SU(2) models can be further unHiggsed to realize non-Abelian G_2xSU(2) models with more conventional matter content or SU(2)^3 models with trifundamental matter. The U(1) models used as the basis for this construction do not seem to have a Weierstrass realization in the general form found by Morrison-Park, suggesting that a generalization of that form may be needed to incorporate models with arbitrary matter representations and gauge groups localized on singular divisors.

description: We investigate the geometrical structure of breaking bursts generated during the creep rupture of heterogeneous materials. Based on a fiber bundle model with localized load sharing we show that bursts are compact geometrical objects, however, their external frontier has a fractal structure which reflects their growth dynamics. The perimeter fractal dimension of bursts proved to have the universal value 1.25 independent of the external load and of the amount of disorder in the system. We conjecture that according to their geometrical features breaking bursts fall in the universality class of loop-erased self-avoiding random walks with perimeter fractal dimension 5/4 similar to the avalanches of Abelian sand pile models. The fractal dimension of the growing crack front along which bursts occur proved to increase from 1 to 1.25 as bursts gradually cover the entire front.
