Bioenergetic studies on the quinone electron acceptors of photosystem II
Creators: name: De Causmaecker, Sven
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2017

description: Photosystem II (PSII) is a membrane-bound protein complex found in plants, algae and cyanobacteria that converts light into chemical energy. Despite extensive research, many energetic and mechanistic questions of PSII remain unresolved. Here the energetics and kinetics of the electron-acceptor side of PSII from Thermosynechococcus elongatus were investigated using biophysical approaches. Based on data from electron paramagnetic resonance and thermoluminescence measurements, the two midpoint potentials of the terminal electron acceptor, QB, were measured (Em(QB/QB•−) = 92 mV; Em(QB•−/QBH2) = 43 mV). It was found that i) QB•− is signiﬁcantly stabilized, contradicting the recent literature, ii) the energy-gap between QA and QB is larger than previously assumed (235 mV instead of ≈ 80 mV), contradicting the older literature, and iii) the release of QBH2 into the pool is thermodynamically favourable, ( ≈ 50 meV). No signiﬁcant shift of the QB midpoint potentials in response to the loss of the Mn4O5Ca cluster was found. These ﬁndings allow for a better understanding of charge separation and the energetics of PSII. Isolated PSII from T. elongatus is used in many structural and functional studies but the electron acceptor side kinetics of this organism are poorly deﬁned. Using absorption spectroscopy, the kinetics which were previously treated as a single “fast phase”, were resolved as follows: QA•−→ Fe 3+ (t1/2 = 50 µs); QA•−→QB(t1/2 = 350 µs); QA•−→ QB•− (t1/2 = 1.3 ms). Furthermore, the kinetic data analysis developed in this work allowed the proportions of these reactions to be determined under a range of conditions. It was found that in long dark-adapted samples up to 50% of the non-heme iron was oxidized and this oxidation was inhibited when bicarbonate was present. These data will be useful for future research on PSII and help understanding the mechanism of electron transfer on the acceptor side.

The impact of black carbon emissions from open burning of solid waste
Creators: name: Reyna Bensusan, Natalia
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2018

description: Open burning of solid waste is widely practiced in developing countries and is a significant source of air pollution, impacting climate change and human health. Waste disposal by open burning releases emissions of black carbon (BC), a pollutant with a global warming potential (GWP) up to 5,000 times greater than carbon dioxide (CO2). However, there are major uncertainties about the extent and impacts of BC emissions from uncontrolled burning of waste on the environment. The aim of this research is to quantify the impact of BC emissions from open burning of waste and to improve the quality of the available data on open waste combustion through field measurements and laboratory experimentation. Some of the first field data to be reported on the uncontrolled burning of waste is presented for two representative case study areas (Huejutla and Juchitán) in Mexico. Published statistical data were also scrutinized to provide an independent assessment of the extent of open burning of waste at a national level. Health databases provided by the authorities were analysed and the results showed that respiratory diseases were increased in rural areas of Huejutla and urban areas of Juchitán, corresponding with the increased exposure of the population to emissions from open burning of waste. This suggested a possible link between the uncontrolled combustion of waste and respiratory health. A small-scale, laboratory combustion apparatus was developed to quantify the emissions released by waste combustion and to develop BC emission factors (EFs) for waste representing the composition of the case study areas and for Mexico, using optical transmission and thermal optical analysis techniques. Black carbon EFs were also developed for single waste fractions and were used to estimate regional EFs based on the waste composition characteristics of different areas of the world. The results of this research have demonstrated that action to reduce open burning of waste would have a significant and immediate benefit to improving air quality and reducing climate change.

description: Simulated observations of a $10\dg \times 10\dg$ field by the Microwave Anisotropy Probe (MAP) are analysed in order to separate cosmic microwave background (CMB) emission from foreground contaminants and instrumental noise and thereby determine how accurately the CMB emission can be recovered. The simulations include emission from the CMB, the kinetic and thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (SZ) effects from galaxy clusters, as well as Galactic dust, free-free and synchrotron. We find that, even in the presence of these contaminating foregrounds, the CMB map is reconstructed with an rms accuracy of about 20 $μ$K per 12.6 arcmin pixel, which represents a substantial improvement as compared to the individual temperature sensitivities of the raw data channels. We also find, for the single $10\dg \times 10\dg$ field, that the CMB power spectrum is accurately recovered for $\ell \la 600$.

description: Cobalt-porphyrin catalyzed reductive decomposition of CO2 to CO is investigated based on Koper's water facilitated CO2 reduction mechanism using a simple but accurate protocol based on thermodynamics. In our protocol, accurate predictions of standard redox potentials and free energy differences are achieved by combining strengths of both density functional theory and experimental observations. With the proposed protocol, we found that the proton transfer from H2O takes place at -0.80 V vs. RHE at pH=3 through a concerted pathway and, as a result, the key intermediate for the CO generation, i.e., [CoP-COOH]- is formed. Since the redox potential of the proton transfer agrees well with experimentally observed CO2 reduction potential, we successfully clarified that H2O plays an important role in the reductive decomposition of CO2 to CO. This result is valuable not only for understanding the cobalt-porphyrin catalyzed reductive decomposition of CO2 but also as a guide for the development of new catalysts.

Dark Matter from Freeze-In via the Neutrino Portal
Creators: name: Becker, Mathias
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We investigate a minimal neutrino portal dark matter (DM) model where a right-handed neutrino both generates the observed neutrino masses and mediates between the SM and the dark sector, which consists of a fermion and a boson. In contrast to earlier work, we explore regions of the parameter space where DM is produced via freeze-in instead of freeze-out motivated by the small neutrino Yukawa couplings in case of $\mathcal{O} \left( \mathrm{TeV} \right)$ heavy neutrinos. \\ For a non-resonant production of DM, its energy density is independent of the DM mass. Assuming a democratic coupling structure we find $M_N \approx 10 \, \mathrm{TeV}$. For the resonant production of DM, we find that it can be produced via freeze-in or freeze-out even with couplings of $\mathcal{O} \left( 10^{-5} \right)$. However, the measurement of the Lyman-$α$ forest rules out the feeble coupled freeze-out case completely, while the resonant freeze-in production is only viable for $m_{DM} \gtrsim 3 \, \mathring{keV}$.

description: Background: Oral hygiene behaviours as well as dietary habits before bed can affect children's dental health resulting in higher prevalence of dental disease. Dental disease can affect children's health, development and even school performance. If left untreated, dental disease can progress and it can lead to extractions under general anaesthetic causing further distress for children and families. Consistent and appropriate oral hygiene behaviours and dietary habits can prevent dental diseases from occurring in the first place. Objective: This cross-sectional study examines the relationship between oral hygiene behaviours, dietary habits around bedtime and children's dental health. Methods: A total of 185 parents with children between the ages of 3 and 7 years from deprived areas participated in the study. Data on bedtime routine activities were collected using an automated text-survey system. Children's dental health status was established through examination of dental charts and dmft (decayed, missed, filled teeth) scores. Results: In total, 52.4% of parents reported that their children's teeth were brushed every night. The majority of children (58.9%) had dmft scores over zero. In total, 51 (46.7% of children with dmft score over 0 and 27.5% of all children) children had active decay. The mean dmft score for those experiencing decay was 2.96 (SD = 2.22) with an overall mean dmft score of 1.75 (SD = 2.24). There were significant correlations between frequency of tooth brushing, frequency of snacks/drinks before bed and dmft scores (r = -0.584, p < 0.001 and r = 0.547, p = 0.001 respectively). Finally, higher brushing frequency was associated with a lower likelihood of a dmft score greater than 0 (Exp(B) = 0.9). Conclusions: Despite families implementing oral hygiene behaviours as part of their bedtime routines those behaviours varied in their consistency. Results of this study highlight the need for additional studies that consider bedtime routine-related activities and especially the combined effects of oral hygiene practices and dietary habits due to their potentially important relationship with children's dental health.
Enhanced nonlinear analysis of 3D concrete structures
Creators: name: Barrero Bilbao, Alejandro
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2016

description: Although numerical simulation of concrete has a significant background in the framework of simplified one- and two-dimensional elements, a full triaxial description of the structural behaviour of this material is still subject to active research. High fidelity modelling has only been enabled once the required computational capacity achieved an appropriate threshold, and it is precisely of such computational nature that there are diverse drawbacks the material model has to overcome. For concrete, an existing model combining plasticity and isotropic damage is chosen in this work, and this choice over multi-surface plasticity is duly justified. Additionally, an extension to anisotropic damage is proposed. Focus is set on a series of algorithmic enhancements that significantly increase robustness in stress evaluation, in particular from stress states that pathologically associate to a singular Jacobian matrix and stress-returns that lead towards sensitive areas of the failure surface in principal stress space, where plastic flow is undefined. Reinforcing steel is modelled as embedded bars inside the corresponding concrete parent elements, with solely axial stiffness. An arbitrary orientation inside the concrete elements is allowed but otherwise the discretised bars share the parent element morphology, order and degrees of freedom, resulting in a perfect bond interaction. An improved and systematic linearising procedure is presented to track the intersections of each bar segment with its embedding parent element, which can be readily applied to any element type and order. This facilitates an accurate calculation of this constituent’s contribution to the parent element’s stiffness matrix and nodal force vector. The robustness of the enhanced material model is verified by means of numerical tests, highlighting the convergence ratio, and validation ensues via simulations of established benchmark tests. Finally, some case studies are presented to illustrate the performance of the model at structural level, with insight into various issues of computational nature.

description: The study of shadow is quite prominent nowadays because of the ongoing Event Horizon Telescope\footnote{https://eventhorizontelescope.org/} observations. We construct the shadow images of charged wormholes in Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton (EMD) theory. The spacetime metric of the charged wormholes contains three charges: magnetic charge $P$, electric charge $Q$, and dilaton charge $Σ$. We evaluate the photon geodesics around the charged wormholes. We also calculate the effective potential and discuss its behavior with angular momentum $L$ and different values of charges $P$, $Q$, and $Σ$. A study of the shadow of charged wormholes reveals that the shadow has an effect of the charges $P$ and $Q$. The radius of the shadow increases with the magnetic charge $P$ as well as the electric charge $Q$. We also find that the dilaton charge does not affect the shadow of the charged wormholes.

Integrating consumers’ supply valuation and flexibility in distribution network planning and charging
Creators: name: Karimi Khouzani, Hadi
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2016

description: The current distribution network operation and planning framework is rather centralised. The distribution network operator (DNO) makes decisions on congestion management and network upgrades without communicating with the consumers and taking into account their actual valuation of electricity supply and flexibility. Customers’ valuation, reflecting their willingness to curtail or reschedule their loads, is based on their requirements, preferences and perceptions regarding energy use. This value is currently assumed identical 1) for all consumers of the same type (i.e., residential, commercial and industrial) and 2) for every unit of energy supplied, irrespective of the specific service it provides to the consumer. Furthermore, specific operations of time-coupling technologies, such as electric vehicles and wet appliances, are not integrated in the current framework. Therefore, their valuation of supply is disregarded in distribution network planning. The time-coupling technologies provide the opportunity for DNOs to redistribute the energy over the time instead of reducing the demand. Finally, the current distribution network charging schemes are based on the overall customers’ energy consumption or capacity and not the differentiated impacts of individual user preferences. Hence, they do not accurately reflect the contribution of each customer to the total network expenditure. Building on the advanced metering and control capabilities of the emerging smart grid, this work explores the impact of integrating the differentiated valuation of electricity supply for different customers and different levels of supplied energy in distribution network planning. To quantify customers’ valuation, their flexibilities are modelled based on their willingness to curtail and reschedule their loads to avoid additional network charges. Customer interruption costs are then reduced, since the supply interruption of customers with low supply valuation and the non-critical part of their demand is prioritised during network failures. As a result, the need for capital-intensive network reinforcements is limited and the total network expenditure is reduced. Finally, a cost-reflective network charging scheme based on the principles of locational marginal pricing is proposed. This scheme enables an equitable treatment of customers with differentiated supply valuation as well as full recovery of investment costs for DNOs.

description: Human cytomegalovirus (HCMV) is a ubiquitous human herpesvirus. In healthy people, primary infection is generally asymptomatic, and the virus can go on to establish lifelong latency in cells of the myeloid lineage. However, HCMV often causes severe disease in the immunosuppressed: transplant recipients and people living with AIDS, and also in the immunonaive foetus. At present, there are several antiviral drugs licensed to control HCMV disease. However, these are all faced with problems of poor bioavailability, toxicity and rapidly emerging viral resistance. Furthermore, none of them are capable of fully clearing the virus from the host, as they do not target latent infection. Consequently, reactivation from latency is a significant source of disease, and there remains an unmet need for treatments that also target latent infection. This review briefly summarises the most common HCMV antivirals used in clinic at present and discusses current research into targeting the latent HCMV reservoir.
Time-Integrated Gamma-Ray Burst Synchrotron Spectra from Blast Wave/Cloud Interactions

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We show that the spectral shape of the low energy tails found for the time-integrated spectra of gamma-ray bursts, even in the absence of strong synchrotron cooling, can be significantly softer than the $νF_ν\propto ν^{4/3}$ asymptote predicted by synchrotron shock models. As we have noted in a previous work, blast wave deceleration via interaction with ambient material causes the characteristic electron injection energy to decrease in proportion to the bulk Lorentz factor of the blast wave, and under certain conditions, this effect will at least partially account for the observed increase in pulse widths with decreasing energy. This spectral softening can also be reflected in the time-integrated pulse spectrum. Using a simple model for the blast wave interaction with a dense cloud of material, we show that just below the $νF_ν$ spectral peak the integrated spectrum behaves as $νF_ν\sim ν^{1/2}$ and rolls over to a $ν^{4/3}$ dependence at lower energies, thus a spectral shape arises which is similar to that predicted for the spectrum of a strongly synchrotron-cooled electron population. We discuss the implications of this work in the context of models of burst light curve variability which are based on blast wave/cloud interactions.

description: RLIP76/RalBP1 is an ATP-dependent transporter of glutathione conjugates, which is overexpressed in various human cancers, but its diverse functions in normal cells, which include endocytosis, stress response and mitochondrial dynamics, are still not fully understood. The protein can be divided into three distinct regions, each with its own structural properties. At the centre of the protein are two well-defined domains, a GTPase activating protein domain targeting Rho family small G proteins and a small coiled-coil that binds to the Ras family small GTPases RalA and RalB. In engaging with Rho and Ral proteins, RLIP76 bridges these two distinct G protein families. The N-terminal region is predicted to be disordered and is rich in basic amino acids, which may mediate membrane association, consistent with its role in transport. RLIP76 is an ATP-dependent transporter with ATP-binding sites within the N-terminus and the Ral binding domain. Furthermore, RLIP76 is subject to extensive phosphorylation, particularly in the N-terminal region. In contrast, the C-terminal region is thought to form an extensive coiled-coil that could mediate dimerization. Here, we review the structural features of RLIP76, including experimental data and computational predictions, and discuss the implications of its various post-translational modifications.

description: The maximum entropy method has been used to reconstruct images in a wide range of astronomical fields, but in its traditional form it is restricted to the reconstruction of strictly positive distributions. We present an extension of the standard method to include distributions that can take both positive and negative values. The method may therefore be applied to a much wider range of astronomical reconstruction problems. In particular, we derive the form of the entropy for positive/negative distributions and use direct counting arguments to find the form of the entropic prior. We also derive the measure on the space of positive/negative distributions, which allows the definition of probability integrals and hence the proper quantification of errors.

Quantum Monte Carlo simulations of warm dense matter

description: Recent experimental progress in laser technology has led to renewed interest in warm dense matter. Found in the interiors of gas giants and in inertial confinement fusion experiments, warm dense matter is relevant to problems of fundamental and technological importance but is a challenge to create experimentally and describe theoretically. Modern electronic structure theory, in the form of density functional theory coupled with molecular dynamics, in principle offers a route to describing realistic warm dense matter. However, until quite recently, no accurate exchange correlation free energy functionals existed and the accuracy of existing fits was largely unknown. %Moreover, existing accurate quantum Monte Carlo data for the exchange correlation energy of the warm dense electron gas differ substantially. In this thesis we extend the independent, systematically exact, density matrix quantum Monte Carlo method, to address these issues. Focussing on the warm dense uniform electron gas, we first outline how sampling issues present in the original formulation can be overcome and how numerical basis set corrections can significantly reduce the computational burden at high electronic temperatures. We next introduce a systematic approximation allowing larger system sizes to be tackled. In the process we resolve a controversy present between two competing path integral Monte Carlo methods, whose results for the exchange correlation energy of the uniform electron gas differ substantially in the warm dense regime. Finally, we develop a general procedure for deriving analytic finite size corrections in the warm dense regime, thus removing the final barrier to reaching the thermodynamic limit.

description: It is known that orbit reduction can be performed in one or two stages and it has been proven that the two processes are symplectically equivalent. In the context of orbit reduction by one stage we shall write an expression for the reduced two-form in the general case and obtain the equations of motion derived from this theory. Then we shall develop the same process in the case in which the symmetry group has a normal subgroup to get the reduced symplectic form by two stages and the consequent orbit reduced equations. In both cases we shall illustrate the method with the example of a rigid body with rotors and compare the obtained equations with the ones given by other authors in different frameworks.

Improving the performance of dataflow systems for deep neural network training

description: Deep neural networks (DNNs) have led to significant advancements in machine learning. With deep structure and flexible model parameterisation, they exhibit state-of-the-art accuracies for many complex tasks e.g. image recognition. To achieve this, models are trained iteratively over large datasets. This process involves expensive matrix operations, making it time-consuming to obtain converged models. To accelerate training, dataflow systems parallelise computation. A scalable approach is to use parameter server framework: it has workers that train model replicas in parallel and parameter servers that synchronise the replicas to ensure the convergence. With distributed DNN systems, there are three challenges that determine the training completion time. In this thesis, we propose practical and effective techniques to address each of these challenges. Since frequent model synchronisation results in high network utilisation, the parameter server approach can suffer from network bottlenecks, thus requiring decisions on resource allocation. Our idea is to use all available network bandwidth and synchronise subject to the available bandwidth. We present Ako, a DNN system that uses partial gradient exchange for synchronising replicas in a peer-to-peer fashion. We show that our technique exhibits a 25% lower convergence time than a hand-tuned parameter-server deployments. For a long training, the compute efficiency of worker nodes is important. We argue that processing hardware should be fully utilised for the best speed-up. The key observation is it is possible to overlap the execution of several matrix operations with other workloads. We describe Crossbow, a GPU-based system that maximises hardware utilisation. By using a multi-streaming scheduler, multiple models are trained in parallel on GPU and achieve a 2.3x speed-up compared to a state-of-the-art system. The choice of model configuration for replicas also directly determines convergence quality. Dataflow systems are used for exploring the promising configurations but provide little support for efficient exploratory workflows. We present Meta-dataflow (MDF), a dataflow model that expresses complex workflows. By taking into account all configurations as a unified workflow, MDFs efficiently reduce time spent on configuration exploration.
Toward an integrated approach to a sustainable biorefinery using the ionoSolv process

description: Lignocellulosic biomass and Algae are feedstocks that hold great potential in production of sustainable biofuels, materials and chemicals. This work focusses on the application of ionic liquid based fractionation of lignocellulosic biomass and algae. Firstly, the pretreatment of Miscanthus x giganteus using different ionic liquid with low concentration was performed. The delignification yield increased gradually as concentration of ionic liquids go higher. Dilute triethylammonium hydrogen sulphate with different cation: anion ratio was used in pretreatment of miscanthis, pine and willow. The results showed increased removal of cellulose, hemicellulose and lignin with lower cation: anion ratio. Liquor analysis on liquid phase after pretreatment using triethylammonium hydrogen sulphate on Miscanthus under varies of conditions indicate that hemicellulose removal rate is better under conditions of higher temperatures and longer reaction time. Secondly, Algae fractionation using ionoSolv process was tested. Among all seaweeds tested, Posidonia oceanica showed high saccharification yield after pretreatment under very mild conditions. Finally, 2-stage pretreatment aiming to remove hemicellulose and lignin in two separate steps was carried out. The results showed promising hemicellulose removal and delignification yield with promising saccharification yield. A further study on using recycled ionic liquid in the 2nd stage pretreatment has demonstrated consistent results of effective pretreatment over 5 cycles.

description: We discuss the electroproduction of pseudoscalar ($0^{-+}$) or scalar ($0^{++}$) meson production off the scalar target. The most general formulation of the differential cross section for the $0^{-+}$ or $0^{++}$ meson production process involves only one or two hadronic form factors, respectively, on a scalar target. The Rosenbluth-type separation of the differential cross section provides the explicit relation between the hadronic form factors and the different parts of the differential cross section in a completely model-independent manner. The absence of the beam spin asymmetry for the pseudoscalar meson production provides a benchmark for the experimental data analysis. The measurement of the beam spin asymmetry for the scalar meson production may also provide a unique opportunity not only to explore the imaginary part of the hadronic amplitude in the general formulation but also to examine the significance of the chiral-odd generalized parton distribution (GPD) contribution in the leading-twist GPD formulation.

description: Asymmetric dark matter (ADM) is an attractive framework relating the observed baryon asymmetry of the Universe to the dark matter density. A composite particle in a new strong dynamics is a promising candidate for ADM as the strong dynamics naturally explains the ADM mass in the GeV range. Its large annihilation cross section due to the strong dynamics leaves the asymmetric component to be dominant over the symmetric component. In such composite ADM scenarios, the dark sector has a relatively large entropy density in the early Universe. The large dark sector entropy results in the overclosure of the Universe or at best contradicts with the observations of the cosmic microwave background and the successful Big-Bang Nucleosynthesis. Thus, composite ADM models generically require some portal to transfer the entropy of the dark sector into the Standard Model sector. In this paper, we consider a dark photon portal with a mass in the sub-GeV range and kinetic mixing with the Standard Model photon. We investigate the viable parameter space of the dark photon in detail, which can find broad applications to dark photon portal models. We also provide a simple working example of composite ADM with a dark photon portal. Our model is compatible with thermal leptogenesis and $B - L$ symmetry. By taking into account the derived constraints, we show that the parameter space is largely tested by direct detection experiments.
