description: We review the direct CP and T violation in the three-body baryonic B decays in the standard model. In particular, we emphasize that the direct CP violating asymmetry in $B^\pm\to p\bar p K^{*\pm}$ is around 22% and the direct $T$ violating asymmetry in $\bar B^0 \ra Λ\bar p π^+$ can be as large as 12%, which are accessible to the current B factories at KEK and SLAC as well as SuperB and LHCb.

description: Astronomy and science are fields in which specific groups remain under-represented despite multiple studies that investigate this issue and propose solutions. In this article, we analyze the demographics and social behavior of the exoplanet direct imaging community. Our focus is on identifying possible under-representation among this group, and quantifying inappropriate social behaviors. During the Spirit of Lyot conference 2019 (Tokyo, Japan), we conducted a survey that gathered a participation rate of 53\%. We analyzed the data collected under the prisms of gender balance and seniority representation. The proportions of women and of non-binary persons reveal a more diverse community in comparison to the other scientific groups (e.g. the IAU members), but still far from a balanced representation of all genders. Early-career scientists appear to have a lower visibility in the field than permanent researchers, with PhD students being under-represented at international conferences, and postdocs being excluded from conference Science Organizing Committees. Regarding social relations, the results are alarming, in particular when it comes to self-censoring of women or to unprofessional behavior, which was experienced by 54\% of this community (gender-biased behavior: 29\%; oral interruption: 33\%; inappropriate behavior: 33\%), and in particular by women. We recommend the community to become pro-active to build a safe environment and to continue its inclusion efforts. One aspect could be to systematically include socio-demographic surveys in conference registration forms to monitor the evolution of the community, in particular at larger scales. To do so, the survey questions available on GitHub.

description: In this work we formulate the satisfaction of a (syntactically co-safe) linear temporal logic specification on a physical plant through a recent hybrid dynamical systems formalism. In order to solve this problem, we introduce an extension to such a hybrid system framework of the so-called eventuality property, which matches suitably the condition for the satisfaction of such a temporal logic specification. The eventuality property can be established through barrier certificates, which we derive for the considered hybrid system framework. Using a hybrid barrier certificate, we propose a solution to the original problem. Simulations illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed method.

Süddeutschland ist »Tafelland«. Eine Analyse der räumlichen Diskrepanz zwischen Angebot und Bedarf der Lebensmittel-Tafeln

description: 1993 wurde in Berlin die erste Tafel in Deutschland gegründet mit dem Ziel
 überschüssige Lebensmittel einzusammeln und an Bedürftige weiterzugeben.
 20 Jahre später existieren über 900 dieser Einrichtungen in Deutschland, die
 jedoch keinesfalls flächendeckend über das Bundesgebiet verbreitet sind.
 Der vorliegende Aufsatz zeigt die räumliche Diskrepanz zwischen Angebot
 und Bedarf, denn Tafeln entstehen nicht an den Orten, an denen die Armut
 am größten ist, sondern dort, wo Lebensmittelspender und Sponsoren sowie
 Ehrenamtliche, die Zeit und Lust haben sich zu engagieren, lokalisiert sind.

 In 1993 the first Tafel was founded in Berlin. Its goal was to collect excess
 food and distribute it among needy people. Today, over 900 Tafels exist, but
 they are not evenly spread all over the country. This article shows the spatial
 mismatch between supply and demand, because Tafels are not founded in
 areas where poverty is at the highest level, but in places where food donors,
 sponsors and motivated volunteers are available.

title: Personality Dysfunction Manifest in Words
title: Understanding Personality Pathology Using Computational Language Analysis
titleType: Subtitle
Creators: name: Entwistle, Charlotte
Publisher: name: Lancaster University

description: Personality disorders (PDs) are some of the most prevalent and high-risk
 mental health conditions, and yet remain poorly understood. Today, the
 development of new technologies means that there are advanced tools that
 can be used to improve our understanding and treatment of PD. One
 promising tool – indeed, the focus of this thesis – is computational
 language analysis. By looking at patterns in how people with personality
 pathology use words, it is possible to gain access into their
 constellation of thinking, feelings, and behaviours. To date, however,
 there has been little research at the intersection of verbal behaviour and
 personality pathology. Accordingly, the central goal of this thesis is to
 demonstrate how PD can be better understood through the analysis of
 natural language. This thesis presents three research articles, comprising
 four empirical studies, that each leverage computational language analysis
 to better understand personality pathology. Each paper focuses on a
 distinct core feature of PD, while incorporating language analysis
 methods: Paper 1 (Study 1) focuses on interpersonal dysfunction; Paper 2
 (Studies 2 and 3) focuses on emotion dysregulation; and Paper 3 (Study 4)
 focuses on behavioural dysregulation (i.e., engagement in suicidality and
 deliberate self-harm). Findings from this research have generated better
 understanding of fundamental features of PD, including insight into
 characterising dimensions of social dysfunction (Paper 1), maladaptive
 emotion processes that may contribute to emotion dysregulation (Paper 2),
 and psychosocial dynamics relating to suicidality and deliberate self-harm
 (Paper 3) in PD. Such theoretical knowledge subsequently has important
 implications for clinical practice, particularly regarding the potential
 to inform psychological therapy. More broadly, this research highlights
 how language can provide implicit and unobtrusive insight into the
 personality and psychological processes that underlie personality
 pathology at a large-scale, using an individualised, naturalistic
 approach.
From Coulomb blockade to the Kondo regime in a Rashba dot

description: We investigate the electronic transport in a quantum wire with localized Rashba interaction. The Rashba field forms quasi-bound states which couple to the continuum states with an opposite spin direction. The presence of this Rashba dot causes Fano-like antiresonances and dips in the wire's linear conductance. The Fano lineshape arises from the interference between the direct transmission channel along the wire and the hopping through the Rashba dot. Due to the confinement, we predict the observation of large charging energies in the local Rashba region which lead to Coulomb-blockade effects in the transport properties of the wire. Importantly, the Kondo regime can be achieved with a proper tuning of the Rashba interaction, giving rise to an oscillating linear conductance for a fixed occupation of the Rashba dot.

Τα δεδομένα προέκυψαν μέσω της εφαρμογής μιας δομημένης διαδικασίας στην οποία συμμετείχαν έξι (6) φυσικοί ομιλητές της ΕΝΓ (4 άνδρες και 2 γυναίκες), οι οποίοι ανέλαβαν το ρόλο των πληροφορητών. Σε κάθε πληροφορητή παρουσιάστηκαν 20 ρήματα σε προτάσεις της νεοελληνικής (σε γραπτή μορφή) στην ακόλουθη μορφή : παιδί τρώει γλυκό 'το παιδί τρώει ένα γλυκό'. Η ανάλυση των δεδομένων έδειξε ότι: α. Ο παρελθοντικός χρόνος εκφράζεται με τη χρήση ενός νοήματος (sign) που φέρει επιρρηματική χρονική σημασία και κατέχει την αρχική θέση της πρότασης. β. Η συνοπτική όψη εκφράζεται μέσω ενός νοήματος (sign) που εμφανίζεται σταθερά σε μεταρηματική θέση με ελάχιστες εξαιρέσεις εμφάνισης του πριν τη ρηματική φράση (ΡΦ). γ. Η μη συνοπτική ρηματική όψη εκφράζεται με μια ποικιλομορφία : 1)με επανάληψη του νοήματος του ρήματος (λεξική κατηγορία), 2) με τη χρήση νοήματος με επιρρηματική χρονική σημασία (γραμματική κατηγορία), 3) με την εμφάνιση στοματικής χειρονομίας (mouth gesture) κατά την πραγμάτωση του νοήματος του ρήματος (στοιχείο μορφοφωνολογίας).
description: This paper investigates the grammaticalisation of completed and ongoing events in the past in Greek Sign Language (GSL) by using an elicited production task. The main findings are summarized as follows : a. Past tense marking is encoded by a sign indicating temporal adverbial modification and occupying the sentence initial position. b. Aspectual marking for completed events is encoded by a sign, which constantly appears in the post verbal position with a few exceptions in which the sign appears before the VP. c. Aspectual marking for ongoing events is encoded in different ways: (i) continuous repetition of the veb sign (ii) use of a sign indicating temporal modification that occupies the postverbal position (iii) simultaneous use of the lexical verb sign and a mouth gesture.
Der thirdspace raumbasierter Gerechtigkeit und die anderen Orte Gottes in liberalisierten Gesellschaften
Creators: name: Sander, Hans-Joachim
Publisher: name: UB Tübingen
Year: 2015

description: Menschen und Räume gehören zusammen, konfrontieren einander aber auch
 mit Problemen von Ungerechtigkeit. Wer politisch, gesellschaftlich, wirtschaft-
 lich, in der Strafverfolgung oder kulturell an der nachhaltigen Etablierung ge-
 sellschaftlicher Unterschiede interessiert ist, wird das an Orten wie Minaretten,
 Tatorten, Nachrichtenredaktionen, Videoclips im Internet, Börsen, Verkehrs-
 infrastruktur usw. platzieren und diese mit Ausschließungs- sowie Einschlies-
 sungsmechanismen versehen. Speziell der urbane Kontext stellt Gerechtigkeit
 räumlich bereit oder verweigert sie als allgemeine Ressource durch räumliche
 Privilegierungen. Der biblische Gott wird mit Aktivitäten für Gerechtigkeit an
 Orten verbunden, die eine alternative Ordnung zum Thema machen. Diese
 Orte sind anders als die Utopien einer Gerechtigkeitsversion, die auf räum-
 liche Konkretisierung verzichtet und stattdessen ortsbezogene Disziplinier-
 ungen einführt. Die heterotope Dimension von Gerechtigkeit wird an der
 dreigliedrigen Raumstruktur des urbanen Kontextes deutlich, die im ›spatial
 turn‹ von Henri Lefebvre und Michel Foucault herausgearbeitet wurde.
 Eine konkrete pastorale Aktivität auf den thirdspace urbaner Gerechtigkeit
 hin wird vorgestellt.

 Human beings and spaces where they live, work, are engaged into cultural
 and religious activities are interrelated. Without encouraging places human
 beings cannot have a decent life and by spaces controlling by discipline
 human beings are involved into experiences of powerlessness. One cannot
 have society without dealing with places including or excluding people from
 chances for economic success, religious freedom, cultural enrichment.
 With a spatial grammar the discourse about justice is changed. At places
 like minarets, crime zones, news rooms, web sites for event economies
 claims for justice have a different function than within a discourse focusing
 only on the subjects. The spatial grammar of justice is focused on urban
 spaces where plurality in all ambiguity cannot be avoided. Here the place
 confronting with the quest for justice has a threefold dimension and justice
 becomes an activity of a ‹thirdspace›. A justice linked to God is realized at
 spaces of this third dimension confronting with an alternative for ordering
 human affairs. It has a heteropian mode challenging the utopian expectat-
 ions of justice without a spatial focus. An example of a pastoral activity
 introducing spatial justice within an urban context is discussed.

description: We present a coarse molecular-dynamics (CMD) approach for the study of stress-induced structural transformations in crystals at finite temperatures. The method relies on proper choice of a coarse variable (order parameter, observable), which parameterizes the changes in effective free energy during the transformation. Results are reported for bcc-to-hcp lattice transitions under pressure. We explore coarse-variable space to reconstruct an effective free-energy landscape quantifying the relative stability of different metastable basins and locate the onset, at a critical pressure, of the bcc-to-hcp transformation.

description: Gesundheitssysteme sehen sich wachsenden Herausforderungen gegenübergestellt. Entwicklungen wie der demografische Wandel und erhöhte Behandlungsbedarfe tragen zu der Entstehung von Versorgungsdefiziten bei. Vielerorts kann dem steigenden Bedarf nicht begegnet werden, was die flächendeckende Gesundheitsversorgung gefährdet. Parallel zu dieser Entwicklung sind transformative Digitalisierungsprozesse zu beobachten, die durch den rasanten technologischen Fortschritt und das Potenzial von Telemedizin beschleunigt werden. Technologische Ansätze tangieren dabei eine Vielzahl von Stakeholdergruppen. Die kumulative Dissertation nimmt auf dieser Grundlage unter Anwendung empirischer Methoden eine multiperspektivische Haltung ein. Ziel der Arbeit ist die Beleuchtung und Integration der Versorger- und Verbraucherperspektive auf den Einsatz von Telemedizin in der aktuellen sowie künftigen Patientenversorgung sowie die Identifikation und Diskussion auftretender (ethischer) Konflikte. Zudem geht die Arbeit darauf ein, welche Implikationen aus den empirischen Erkenntnissen für die konkrete Ausgestaltung digitaler Technologien in der Versorgung gezogen werden können. Die Arbeit liefert folglich einen interdisziplinären Beitrag an der Schnittstelle zwischen Wirtschafts- und Medizininformatik, Versorgungsforschung und sozialwissenschaftlichen Bereichen.
description: Healthcare systems are facing growing challenges. Developments such as demographic change and increased treatment needs are contributing to the emergence of care deficits. In many places, it is not possible to meet the increasing demand, which jeopardizes nationwide healthcare provision. Parallel to this development, transformative digitalization processes can be observed, which are accelerated by rapid technological progress and the potential of telemedicine. Technological approaches thereby affect a variety of stakeholder groups. On this basis, the cumulative dissertation takes a multi-perspective stance using empirical methods. The aim of the thesis is to illuminate and integrate the provider and consumer perspectives on the use of telemedicine in current and future patient care, as well as to identify and discuss emerging (ethical) conflicts. In addition, the work addresses implications that can be drawn from the empirical findings for the concrete design of digital technologies in care. Consequently, the work provides an interdisciplinary contribution at the intersection of business and medical informatics, health services research, and social sciences.

description: We report on a method for measuring ac Stark shifts observed in stored light experiments while simultaneously determining the energetic splitting between the electronic ground states involved in the two-photon transition. To this end we make use of the frequency matching effect in light storage spectroscopy. We find a linear dependence on the intensity of the control field applied during the retrieval phase of the experiment. At the same time, we observe that the light shift is insensitive to the intensity of the signal field which is in contrast to continuously operated schemes using electromagnetically induced transparency (EIT) or coherent population trapping (CPT). Our results may be of importance for future light storage-based precision measurements with EIT and CPT-type devices where, in contrast to schemes using continuous exposure to optical fields, the impact of intensity fluctuations from the signal field can be suppressed.

description: Many astrophysical phenomena are time-varying, in the sense that their intensity, energy spectrum, and/or the spatial distribution of the emission suddenly change. This paper develops a method for modeling a time series of images. Under the assumption that the arrival times of the photons follow a Poisson process, the data are binned into 4D grids of voxels (time, energy band, and x-y coordinates), and viewed as a time series of non-homogeneous Poisson images. The method assumes that at each time point, the corresponding multi-band image stack is an unknown 3D piecewise constant function including Poisson noise. It also assumes that all image stacks between any two adjacent change points (in time domain) share the same unknown piecewise constant function. The proposed method is designed to estimate the number and the locations of all the change points (in time domain), as well as all the unknown piecewise constant functions between any pairs of the change points. The method applies the minimum description length (MDL) principle to perform this task. A practical algorithm is also developed to solve the corresponding complicated optimization problem. Simulation experiments and applications to real datasets show that the proposed method enjoys very promising empirical properties. Applications to two real datasets, the XMM observation of a flaring star and an emerging solar coronal loop, illustrate the usage of the proposed method and the scientific insight gained from it.

When dominant, their energy densities tend asymptotically to a constant ratio, explaining today's dark energy-dark matter coincidence, and in agreement with supernova redshift data.

description: We develop solution-generating techniques for stationary metrics with one angular momentum and axial symmetry, in the presence of a cosmological constant and in arbitrary spacetime dimension. In parallel we study the related lower dimensional Einstein-Maxwell-dilaton static spacetimes with a Liouville potential. For vanishing cosmological constant, we show that the field equations in more than four dimensions decouple into a four dimensional Papapetrou system and a Weyl system. We also show that given any four dimensional 'seed' solution, one can construct an infinity of higher dimensional solutions parametrised by the Weyl potentials, associated to the extra dimensions. When the cosmological constant is non-zero, we discuss the symmetries of the field equations, and then extend the well known works of Papapetrou and Ernst (concerning the complex Ernst equation) in four-dimensional general relativity, to arbitrary dimensions. In particular, we demonstrate that the Papapetrou hypothesis generically reduces a stationary system to a static one even in the presence of a cosmological constant. We also give a particular class of solutions which are deformations of the (planar) adS soliton and the (planar) adS black hole. We give example solutions of these techniques and determine the four-dimensional seed solutions of the 5 dimensional black ring and the Myers-Perry black hole.

description: We present a wide-field study of the globular cluster system (GCS) of the field lenticular galaxy NGC 1172, based on observations from GMOS/Gemini (optical), FourStar/Magellan (NIR), and archival data from ACS/HST (optical). This analysis covers the full extension of the GCS, and results in a value of specific frequency (S_N=8.6 +/- 1.5) peculiarly high for an intermediate-mass galaxy in a low-density environment such as this one. We find that the GCS appears to be bimodal, although the colour distribution is narrow and does not allow for an accurate separation of the subpopulations. However, the combination of optical and NIR filters allows us to obtain an estimation of the metallicity distribution based on the photometry, which supports bimodality. We conclude that the presence of a large fraction of metal-poor globular clusters (GCs) and the high specific frequency point to NGC 1172 having accreted a significant amount of GCs from low-mass satellites in the past.

description: This thesis examines the written, visual and material records produced by two late nineteenth-century German traveller-naturalists in Oceania, Adolf Bernhard Meyer (1840-1911) and Otto Finsch (1839-1917). I probe these records for traces of Indigenous agency and discuss the impacts of their authors' personal encounters with actual Oceanian people on their understandings of human difference, locating this discussion within the context of racial science in late nineteenth-century Europe and the complex relationship between field experience and metropolitan publication and reception. By identifying countersigns of Indigenous agency embedded in Meyer's and Finsch' s representations of their experiences in Oceania, I trace the ways in which these experiences informed their contributions to broader debates in the European metropoles: the unity or plurality of the human species, the breadth of variation within supposedly homogeneous 'races' and the extent of overlap between them, the importance of field experience in the human sciences, the standardisation and mobilisation of travellers' observations for metropolitan audiences, and the relative worth of physical, cultural and linguistic data for taxonomic purposes. I interrogate the processes by which racial knowledge about Oceania's inhabitants was produced from the 'raw material' of encounters, the various forms in which this knowledge was embodied - scientific monographs and journal articles, public lectures, sketches, photographs, plaster casts (moulages) of human faces, collections of cranial and skeletal materials -and the extent to which field experience was permitted to confront or contradict metropolitan theories of race. I show that Meyer and Finsch experienced profound transformations in their beliefs about human difference, with respect both to manners and customs and to physical features, as a result of their encounters with actual people in Oceania. I conclude, however, that their ability to communicate these changes to influential colleagues in the metropole was limited by a rigid professional vocabulary, essentialist tools and technologies, and an epistemologically and ideologically unreceptive audience.
Double-spin asymmetries for small-Q_T Drell-Yan pair production in transversely polarized p\bar{p} collisions

description: We discuss the Drell-Yan process at a measured transverse-momentum $Q_T$ of the produced lepton pair in collisions of transversely polarized protons and antiprotons, to be observed at the proposed spin experiments at GSI. The large logarithmic contributions from multiple soft gluon emission, accompanying the Drell-Yan mechanism at small $Q_T$, are resummed to all orders in QCD perturbation theory up to next-to-leading logarithmic (NLL) accuracy. Numerical evaluation shows the impact of the NLL as well as LL effect on the dilepton $Q_T$ spectra. For the corresponding $Q_T$-dependent spin asymmetry $\aqt$, the LL effect gives significant modification while the NLL effect is marginal, leading to QCD prediction that $\aqt$ at GSI is flat at small and moderate $Q_T$ and almost equals the conventional asymmetry $A_{TT}$ associated with the $Q_T$-integrated cross sections. This flat behavior in turn allows us to use analytic saddle-point evaluation of the resummation formula in the limit $Q_T\to 0$, not only to obtain quantitative estimate of $\aqt$, but also to clarify mechanisms behind the relation $\aqt \simeq A_{TT}$ characteristic of $p\bar{p}$ collisions at GSI.

The role of the Kynurenine pathway in Caenorhabditis elegans gut bacterium interactions

Kynurenine Pathway

description: Tryptophan is an essential amino acid whose main catabolic route is via
 the kynurenine pathway (KP), its metabolites are known for their
 immunomodulatory and neurotoxic effects. These metabolites are used by
 bacteria in quorum sensing and act as antibiotics. Inhibition of this
 pathway in C. elegans was found to increase lifespan, possibly through
 increasing tryptophan availability, however the role of its metabolite
 anthranilic acid (AA) which is stored within lysosome-related organelles
 (LROs) remains elusive. We hypothesise that these metabolites play a key
 role in the control of the C. elegans gut microbiota.

 Previous work in the lab showed that the growth of Enterococcus faecalis
 on KP metabolites was affected by many of the KP metabolites, with
 3-hydroxykynurenine completely abrogating its growth. In addition, a pilot
 RNAseq study showed that on infection there was modulation of
 transcription of KP enzymes, with the upregulation of kmo-1 (encoding
 Kynurenine-monooxygenase 1 (KMO)) and downregulation of kynu-1 (encoding
 kynureninase (KYNU)) and haao-1 (encoding 3-hydroxyanthranilate
 3,4-dioxygenase (HAAO). This change in transcription indicates a possible
 shift in metabolism leading to increased production of 3-HK.

 To test this hypothesis, we looked at changes in KP metabolites and the
 effect of mutation of the pathway on gut colonisation on infection with E.
 faecalis. In addition, we looked at the effect of KP metabolites on
 commensal bacterial growth as well as generating fluorescently tagged
 versions of these strains using a Tn7 transposon system to further study
 the effect of KP mutation on gut colonisation. To better study such
 interactions, we also endeavoured to develop

 4

 tools for us and the community by characterising commensal bacterial
 metabolism and beginning to develop imaging tools and methods.

 From this, we found that levels of KP metabolites are altered on infection
 with 3-HK levels increasing and that enzymes promoting resistance (kmo-1)
 or sensitivity (kynu-1) affected the ability for gut colonisation. The
 loss of kmo-1 causes an increase in E. faecalis colonisation and a loss of
 differential commensal gut colonisation. KP metabolites were also shown to
 differentially affect commensal bacterial growth.

 Together our results suggest that C. elegans adjusts its KP activity to
 regulate gut microbial populations. Showing that this is a method for
 controlling the colonisation of the gut and possibly linking to how
 bacteria within the gut evolved. Thus, supporting the eco-system on a
 leash model of microbial cooperation and evolution, with the host having
 an active investment in shaping the bacteria within its’ own microbiota.

AbstractBerotralstat (ORLADEYO™) is an orally administered kallikrein inhibitor, which has been developed by BioCryst Pharmaceuticals for prophylaxis to prevent hereditary angioedema (HAE) attacks. The inhibition of kallikrein by berotralstat decreases the production of bradykinin, which prevents the localised tissue oedema that occurs during attacks of HAE. Berotralstat has been approved in the USA, and subsequently in Japan, for prophylaxis to prevent attacks of HAE in adults and paediatric patients aged 12 years or older. This article summarises the milestones in the development of berotralstat leading to this first approval for prophylaxis to prevent attacks of HAE.

description: We analyze the oxygen abundances of a stellar sample representative of the two major Galactic populations: the thin and thick disks. The aim is to investigate the differences between members of the Galactic disks and to contribute to the understanding on the origin of oxygen chemical enrichment in the Galaxy. The analysis is based on the [O\,{\sc i}]=6300.30\,Å~ oxygen line in HR spectra ($R\sim$52,500) obtained from the GES Survey. By comparing the observed spectra with a theoretical dataset, computed in LTE with the SPECTRUM synthesis and ATLAS12 codes, we derive the oxygen abundances of 516 FGK dwarfs for which we have previously measured carbon abundances. Based on kinematic, chemical and dynamical considerations we identify 20 thin and 365 thick disk members. We study potential trends of both subsamples in terms of their chemistry ([O/H], [O/Fe], [O/Mg], and [C/O] versus [Fe/H] and [Mg/H]), age, and position in the Galaxy. Main results are: (a) [O/H] and [O/Fe] ratios versus [Fe/H] show systematic differences between thin and thick disk stars with enhanced O abundance of thick disk stars with respect to thin disk members and a monotonic decrement of [O/Fe] with increasing metallicity, even at metal-rich regime; (b) a smooth correlation of [O/Mg] with age in both populations, suggesting that this abundance ratio can be a good proxy of stellar ages within the Milky Way; (c) thin disk members with [Fe/H]$\simeq0$ display a [C/O] ratio smaller than the solar value, suggesting a possibly outward migration of the Sun from lower Galactocentric radii.
