description: We present a unique matter-wave interferometer whose phase scales with the cube of the time the atom spends in the interferometer. Our scheme is based on a full-loop Stern-Gerlach interferometer incorporating four magnetic field gradient pulses to create a state-dependent force. In contrast to typical atom interferometers which make use of laser light for the splitting and recombination of the wave packets, this realization uses no light and can therefore serve as a high-precision surface probe at very close distances.

description: Bedingt durch die zunehmende Digitalisierung der wissenschaftlichen Ausbildung entstanden verschiedenste Lehrplattformen, mit denen die Verwaltung von Lehrveranstaltungen und Lehrmitteln möglich geworden ist. Die Plattform LON-CAPA ist eine davon. Neben der Verwaltung von Lehrveranstaltungen konnten innerhalb der Plattform über eine Programmierschnittstelle auch Übungsaufgaben definiert werden, die durch das Hinterlegen der korrekten Antwort oder bei der Definition von Multiple-Choice Aufgaben einem Studierenden automatisch Feedback über dessen Lösung geben können. Komplexere Aufgaben mussten dagegen häufig manuell durch Menschen korrigiert werden. Für die formalen Sprachen und die Automatenlehre der theoretischen Informatik wurde daher die in Java geschriebene Bibliothek JFLAP modifiziert, um als Bewertungsinstrument Aufgaben aus diesem Themengebiet automatisch auf Korrektheit bewerten zu können. Ein genereller Interfaceansatz ermöglich zusätzliche eine zugängliche Definition weiterer Aufgaben für die untersuchten Themengebiete.

description: We report the evidence of proton incorporations in a newly-discovered cobalt oxyhydrate superconductor. During the hydration process for Na$_{0.32}$CoO$_{2}$ by the direct reaction with water liquid, it was shown that substantial NaOH was gradually liberated, indicating that H$^{+}$ is incorporated into the hydrated compound. Combined with the thermogravimetric analysis, the chemical composition of the typical sample is Na$_{0.22}$H$_{0.1}$CoO$_{2}\cdot 0.85$H$_{2}$O, which shows bulk superconductivity at 4.4 K.

description: The results of magnetic susceptibility, electrical resistivity ($ρ$), heat-capacity (C) and thermopower (S) measurements on CeCuAs2, forming in ZrCuSi2-type tetragonal structure, are reported. Our investigations reveal that Ce is trivalent and there is no clear evidence for long range magnetic ordering down to 45 mK. The $ρ$ behavior is notable in the sense that (i) the temperature (T)-coefficient of $ρ$ is negative in the entire range of measurement (45 mK to 300 K) with large values of $ρ$, while S behavior is typical of metallic Kondo lattices, and (ii) $ρ$ is proportional to T-0.6 at low temperatures, without any influence on the exponent by the application of a magnetic field, which does not seem to classify this compound into hither-to-known non-Fermi liquid (NFL) systems. In contrast to the logarithmic increase known for NFL systems, C/T measured down to 0.5 K exhibits a fall below 2 K. The observed properties of this compound are unusual among Ce systems.

description: In the quest to realize a quantum spin liquid (QSL), magnetic long-range order is hardly welcome. Yet it can offer deep insights into a complex world of strong correlations and fluctuations. Much hope was placed in the cubic pyrochlore Yb$_2$Ti$_2$O$_7$ as a putative U(1) QSL but a new class of ultra-pure single crystals make it abundantly clear the stoichiometric compound is a ferromagnet. Here we present a detailed experimental and theoretical study of the corresponding field-temperature phase diagram. We find it to be richly anisotropic with a critical endpoint for $\vec{B}\,\parallel\,\langle 100\rangle$, while field parallel to $\langle 110 \rangle$ and $\langle 111 \rangle$ enhances the critical temperature by up to a factor of two and shifts the onset of the field-polarized state to finite fields. Landau theory shows that Yb$_2$Ti$_2$O$_7$ in some ways is remarkably similar to pure iron. However, it also pinpoints anomalies that cannot be accounted for at the classical mean-field level including a dramatic enhancement of $T_{\mathrm{C}}$ and reentrant phase boundary by fields with a component transverse to the easy axes, as well as the anisotropy of the upper critical field in the quantum limit.

description: We study the motion of random walkers with residence time bias between first and subsequent visits to a site, as a model for synthetic molecular walkers composed of coupled DNAzyme legs known as molecular spiders. The mechanism of the transient superdiffusion has been explained via the emergence of a boundary between the new and the previously visited sites, and the tendency of the multi-legged spider to cling to this boundary, provided residence time for a first visit to a site is longer than for subsequent visits. Using both kinetic Monte Carlo simulation and an analytical approach, we model a system that consists of single-legged walkers, each on its own one-dimensional track, connected by a "leash", i.e., a kinematic constraint that no two spiders can be more than a certain distance apart. Even though a single one-legged walker does not at all exhibit directional, superdiffusive motion, we find that a team of one-legged walkers on parallel tracks, connected by a flexible tether, does enjoy a superdiffusive transient. Furthermore, the one-legged walker teams exhibit a greater expected number of steps per boundary period and are able to diffuse more quickly through the product sea than two-legged walkers, which leads to longer periods of superdiffusion.

title: Biological Roles and Pharmacological Potentials of Marine 5-Thiohistidine Compounds
Creators: name: Brancaccio, Mariarita
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2021

description: 5-thiohistidines are histidine-derived thiols first isolated from marine invertebrates in complex with other larger molecules or in free methylated forms. The biosynthesis of these compounds has developed in bacteria, microalgae, and invertebrates, but it has been lost in vertebrates and consequently in humans. Among them, ovothiols are methyl-5-thiohistidines first discovered in sea urchins, where they play a key role in the protection of the eggs from the oxidative burst associated with fertilization and early embryos from environmental cues. The key enzymes responsible for ovothiol biosynthesis, the sulfoxide synthase OvoA and the β-lyase OvoB, have been characterised and comparative genomics has revealed that its biosynthesis is much more widespread than previously thought.

 Recently, it has been demonstrated that ovothiol A (N-p-methyl-5-thiohistidine), purified from sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus eggs, exhibits anti-proliferative and anti-inflammatory activity in an in vitro model of human hepatocarcinoma cells and in an in vitro model of human endothelial cells, respectively.
 In this scenario, the aim of my thesis was to investigate the biological roles and pharmacological potential of 5-thiohistidines.

 To study the biological role of this metabolite and to deepen the distribution and diversification of the ovothiol pathway in the marine world, we conducted an in-depth analysis on bacterial genomes. We highlighted that most bacteria, especially those living in acquatic environment, including several symbionts and parasites, evolved the biosynthetic pathways of ovothiol, in particular both OvoA and OvoB.

 Moreover, to shed new light on the use of these molecules as new anti-inflammatory agents, we used an in vivo model of hepatic fibrosis and in vitro system of human keratinocytes to mimic skin inflammation. We identified the molecular mechanisms underlying the action of these molecules in human disorders by emphasizing their anti-inflammatory capacity.

Metro/nonmetro migrants more than replaced the 5.1 million persons moving in the opposite direction, except among young adults, blacks, and the college educated. In their occupation, industry, and income attributes, migrants did not have a negative impact on the Nonmetro population. High proportions were in white-collar occupations and industries, and average income was no less than that of the total nonmetro population. Nor did the non metro population suffer in exchanges with metro areas

description: The "Unemployment Compensation Amendments of 1976" are expected to provide income protection for about two-fifths of all hired agricultural workers. The program became effective in January 1978. Of these insured workers, three-tenths are expected to receive benefits, expected to average about 14 percent of average annual earnings if 1970 employment relationships hold. Nearly one-fourth of unemployed farm workers who receive benefits will likely exhaust their entitlements before finding new jobs. Large interstate variations are expected around these averages as a result of differing State qualifying regulations, benefit schedules, and personal work histories.

description: Using 13.5 inverse-femtobarns of e+e- annihilation data in the CLEO II detector at CESR, we have observed a new narrow state decaying to Ds*+ pio, denoted the DsJ(2463). A possible interpretation holds that this is a J^P = 1+^ partner to the DsJ*(2317) state recently discovered by the BaBar Collaboration which is consistent with J^P = 0^+. We have also confirmed the existence of the DsJ*(2317) in its decay to Ds+ pio. We have measured the masses of both states, accounting for the cross-feed background that the two states represent for each other, and have searched for other decay channels for both states. No narrow resonances are seen in neutral or doubly charged Ds pi modes.

description: Economic analyses of nature must somehow define the “environmental commodities” to which values are attached. We articulate principles to guide the choice and interpretation of nonmarket commodities. We describe how complex natural systems can be decomposed consistent with “ecological production theory,” which, like conventional production theory, distinguishes between biophysical inputs, process, and outputs. We argue that a systems approach to the decomposition and presentation of natural commodities can inform and possibly improve the validity of nonmarket environmental valuation studies. We raise concerns about interpretation, usefulness, and accuracy of benefit estimates derived without reference to ecological production theory.
Sticking behavior and transformation of tin droplets on silicon wafers and multilayer-coated mirrors

Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Applied Physics (physics.app-ph)

description: Silicon wafer and multilayer-coated mirror samples were exposed to impact of drops of molten tin to examine the adhesion behavior and cleaning possibilities. The sticking of tin droplets to horizontal substrates was examined for different surface conditions in a high vacuum chamber. Silicon wafers without a coating, with thick oxide top layer, and also with differently capped Mo/Si multilayer coatings optimized for reflection at a wavelength of 13.5 nm were exposed to tin dripping. Dependent on substrate temperature and coating, adhesion as well as detachment with self-peeling and self-contraction of spreaded drops was observed. The adhesion strength of solidified tin splats decreased strongly with decreasing substrate temperature. Non-sticking surface conditions could be generated by substrate super-cooling. The morphology of non-sticking tin droplets was analyzed by profilometry. Adhering deposits were converted in-situ via induction of tin pest by infection with gray tin powder and cooling of the samples. The phase transition was recorded by photographic imaging. It caused material embrittlement and detachment after structural transformation within several hours and enabled facile removal of tin contamination without coating damage. The temperature-dependent contamination behavior of tin drops has implications for the preferred operating conditions of extreme ultraviolet light sources with collection optics exposed to tin debris.

description: We study the simple, linear, Edwards-Wilkinson equation that describes surface growth governed by height diffusion in the presence of spatiotemporally power-law decaying correlated noise. We analytically show that the surface becomes super-rough when the noise correlations spatio/temporal range is long enough. We calculate analytically the associated anomalous exponents as a function of the noise correlation exponents. We also show that super-roughening appears exactly at the threshold point where the local slope surface field becomes rough. In addition, our results indicate that the recent numerical finding of anomalous kinetic roughing of the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang model subject to temporally correlated noise may be inherited from the linear theory.

description: (Abridged) We present the results of M31 globular cluster (GC) X-ray source survey, based on the data of XMM-Newton and Chandra observations covering ~6100 sq.arcmin of M31. We detected 43 X-ray sources coincident with globular cluster candidates from optical surveys. The estimated isotropic X-ray luminosities of GC sources lie between ~10e35 and ~10e39 erg/s in the 0.3 - 10 keV energy band. The spectral properties and variability of M31 GC X-ray sources are consistent with that derived for the LMXBs in the bulges of M31 and Milky Way. We found that ~80% of the M31 GC sources with multiple flux measurements available show significant variability on a time scales from days to years. The X-ray luminosity function of GC sources is found to be significantly different from that of the point sources in the bulge and disk of M31 and that of the Galactic GC X-ray sources. GC sources make dominant contribution to the bright source counts in the areas of M31 covered by the survey: ~40% of the total number of sources with luminosities above 10e37 ergs/s reside in GCs with fraction of GC sources rising to 67-90% for the luminosities above 10e38 ergs/s. The contribution of the GC sources to the total number of bright sources found in M31 is much higher than in the Milky Way galaxy, but surprisingly close to that of the early-type galaxies. The brightest M31 GC sources tend to reside at large galactocentric distances outside the central bulge. We found that globular clusters hosting bright X-ray sources are optically brighter and more metal rich than the rest of M31 globular clusters. The brightest sources with luminosities above ~10e38 ergs/s show tendency to reside in more metal poor clusters.

description: Braking energy recovery is one of the main technologies affecting the economic performance of an electric vehicle. To improve economy from as much recovered braking energy as possible on the premise of ensuring vehicle security is the goal of regenerative braking control strategy. However, due to the non-linear and multi-objective characteristics of hybrid braking system, finding the optimal regenerative braking control strategy, considering safety, economy, and comfort, remains a challenge. Considering the efficient characteristics of regenerative braking system and battery aging, a swarm intelligence-based predictive regenerative braking control strategy is proposed. Particle swarm optimisation is used as the main part of the strategy, the ant colony algorithm is used to modify the iterative process of particle swarm optimisation to avoid convergence to a locally optimal solution, and model predictive control theory is applied in the control strategy to realise the optimal control. Then, under emergency braking conditions and urban cycling conditions, the stability and economy of proposed strategy are test by the simulation experiments. Finally, to reduce the computational complexity of the control strategy, an equivalent control strategy is proposed based on the nearest point method, and its effectiveness is verified by hardware-in-loop experiment.

description: Many farmers argue that the Australian income taxation system provides an impediment to the operations agricultural sector. It is common for individual components of another tax system to be cited as providing more favorable policy settings. The paper provides an overview of major income tax policies affecting farmers in Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United States. To quantify the effect of the different systems, the income tax system of each country is applied to three case study Australian farms. In conclusion, it is argued that the New Zealand tax system is more neutral and provides less tax deferral than occurs in other countries studied. Income taxes payable vary substantially between and within countries, and no system provides lower tax payments in all case studies.

description: Recognizing the public health professional are critical members of interprofessional teams, the Council on Education for Public Health (CEPH) recently added a required Masters of Public Health (MPH) student competency focused on interprofessional education (IPE). A student-centered approach to the design and evaluation of an emergency preparedness-focused curricular program to meet the interprofessional needs of MPH students was used to meet this expectation at the University of Washington. Curriculum design was informed by two 80-minute listening sessions with MPH students to better understand their current interprofessional educational experiences and needs, and how an emergency preparedness-focused two-hour Interprofessional Active Learning Series (iPALS) session could help them develop interprofessional competency. The resultant iPALS session was assessed with a short, paper-based questionnaire. We found MPH students have an interest in participating in IPE, and that all students who participated in the emergency preparedness-focused iPALS session reported significant increases in their interprofessional and disaster response abilities based on their pre- and post-session evaluations. Student-centered IPE curriculum focused on emergency preparedness can enhance the self-reported ability of students across the health sciences to perform on interprofessional teams while engaging in a topic that has relevance to MPH students.

description: We present X-ray spectra of the nucleus of the nearby radio galaxy Centaurus A from observations with the XMM-Newton EPIC CCD cameras (two exposures separated by 12 months) and the Chandra HETGS. For the first time in an FRI type galaxy, we resolve fluorescent K$α$ emission from cold, neutral, or near-neutral iron at 6.4 keV, with an rms line width of $\sim$20 eV. The Fe line parameters observed are consistent with fluorescent emission from material at a large distance from the AGN, either in the form of an absorber that nearly completely surrounds the central engine or a torus that lies predominantly out of the line of sight. Unresolved emission lines from neutral Si K$α$ at 1.74 keV and neutral S K$α$ at 2.30 keV are also detected. We find no evidence in the data for a previously reported 6.8 keV broadened Fe line. The continuum spectrum is well fitted with a combination of a heavily absorbed power-law component that we relate, using Bondi theory, to accretion phenomena in the form of a standard, geometrically thin, optically thick disk, and a second, less absorbed, power-law component that we associate with emission from the subparsec VLBI radio jet.

description: We study the effects of informal labor sharing arrangements and other social interactions on farmers' productivity in a developing country context, testing whether these types of social and work interactions lead to productivity gains through learning, synergy, or both. Using a rich panel data set of Ethiopian subsistence farmers, we estimate a distance function of grains production and find large productivity gains (approximately 20 percent) from labor sharing due to synergy effects that boost labor productivity. Some training experiences, such as extension education programs and performing off-farm work, lead to learning that increases the farmers' productivity. However, labor sharing does not lead to learning as the productivity gains observed in years with labor sharing disappear in following years if the farmers do not continue to employ labor sharing. The results suggest that interaction and observation alone is not enough to produce learning that leads to productivity gains; however, training and educational activities such as extension programs and off-farm work do appear capable of producing learning and associated productivity gains.

description: The low-mass star formation region associated with the reflection nebula Cederblad 110 in the Chamaeleon I cloud was mapped with the Australian Telescope Compact Array (ATCA) at 6 and 3.5cm. Altogether 11 sources were detected, three of which are previously known low mass young stellar objects associated with the nebula: the illuminating star IRS2 (Class III, Einstein X-ray source CHX7), the brightest far-infrared source IRS4 (Class I), and the weak X-ray source CHX10a (Class III). The other young stellar objects in the region, including the Class 0 protostar candidate Cha-MMS1, were not detected. The radio spectral index of IRS4 (alpha = 1.7 +/- 0.3) is consistent with optically thick free-free emission arising from a dense ionized region, probably a jet-induced shock occurring in the circumstellar material. As the only Class I protostar with a 'thermal jet' IRS4 is the strongest candidate for the central source of the molecular outflow found previously in the region. The emission from IRS2 has a flat spectrum (alpha = 0.05 +/- 0.05) but shows no sign of polarization, and therefore its origin is likely to be optically thin free-free emission either from ionized wind or a collimated jet. The strongest source detected in this survey is a new compact object with a steep negative spectral index (-1.1) and a weak linear polarization (about 2 %), which probably represents a background radio galaxy.

description: This technical report investigates the potential of Convolutional Neural Networks to post-process images from primary atomization. Three tasks are investigated. First, the detection and segmentation of liquid droplets in degraded optical conditions. Second, the detection of overlapping ellipses and the prediction of their geometrical characteristics. This task corresponds to extrapolate the hidden contour of an ellipse with reduced visual information. Third, several features of the liquid surface during primary breakup (ligaments, bags, rims) are manually annotated on 15 experimental images. The detector is trained on this minimal database using simple data augmentation and then applied to other images from numerical simulation and from other experiment. In these three tasks, models from the literature based on Convolutional Neural Networks showed very promising results, thus demonstrating the high potential of Deep Learning to post-process liquid atomization. The next step is to embed these models into a unified framework DeepSpray.

Interstellar Extinction Law toward the Galactic Center IV: J, H, and Ks Bands from VVV Red Clump Stars

description: We have determined the wavelength dependence of the extinction in the near-infrared bands ($J$, $H$, $K_{\mathrm S}$) toward the Galactic center from the VVV (VISTA Variables in the Vía Láctea) aperture photometry of the stars in the region $|l|\lesssim2^\circ.0$ and $0^\circ.5\lesssim|b|\lesssim1^\circ.0$; this region consists of 12 VVV tiles. We have found significant systematic discrepancy up to $\sim0.1$ mag between the stellar magnitudes of the same stars in overlapping VVV tiles. However, by carefully using the positions of red clump stars in color-magnitude diagrams as a tracer of the extinction and reddening, we are able to determine the average of the ratios of total to selective extinction to be $A(K_{\mathrm S})/E(H-K_{\mathrm S})=1.44\pm0.04$, $A(K_{\mathrm S})/E(J-K_{\mathrm S})=0.423\pm0.024$, $A(H)/E(J-H)=1.25\pm0.04$; from these ratios, a steep power law $A(λ)\proptoλ^{-α}$ whose index $α$ is $\sim2.0-2.3$ in the $J,H,K_{\mathrm S}$ wavelength range is estimated. The obtained wavelength dependence is consistent with those obtained with the MKO photometric system employed in SIRIUS camera attached to the IRSF telescope in previous studies. Such a steep decline of extinction toward the longer wavelengths is also in line with recent results based on deep imaging surveys. The determined extinction law seems to be variable in the VVV tile to tile, and it is not clear how much of this is due to real sight line variations and due to observational systematic effects. Thus, there might be room for improvement of the extinction law determination from the existing VVV data, but this steep extinction law tends to locate heavily reddened objects in the Galactic plane more distant from us when their distance moduli are calculated from the observed reddening values.

description: Wer darf für wen jenseits des Staates sprechen, und welche Identitäten werden durch dieses Sprechen erst angeboten und erzeugt? Auch wenn die theoretische wie praktische Relevanz dieser Fragen klar zu ersehen ist, bergen sie eine Reihe von Herausforderungen. Wir möchten in einer Replik auf eine 2020 erschienene Debatte Verweise auf sehr relevante wie schwierige Fragen zu transnationaler Repräsentation mit der These verbinden, dass die feministische Beschäftigung mit transnationaler Repräsentation exemplarisch Ansätze zur Verbindung von normativer und empirischer Forschung zur Verfügung stellt. Bedauerlicherweise wurde die feministische Repräsentationstheorie und die Inspiration, die von ihr ausgeht, in der Debatte nicht beachtet. Über eine fokussierte Besprechung der Beiträge der Internationalen Beziehungen und der Politischen Theorie zeigen wir, dass feministische Interventionen im Spannungsfeld zwischen Theorie und Praxis stetige Kritik an aufkommenden Ungleichheiten und Identitätskonstruktionen leisten. Darin schließlich tragen sie zu einer Verunsicherung von theoretischen Vorannahmen bei, die für eine empirisch informierte Politische Theorie entscheidend ist.

description: Apprenticeships in the Greek education system include the training of a new generation of professionals with parallel vocational training in the workplace and theoretical training in the school unit. Most of their training is done while working for an employer who helps trainees learn their profession, while successful completion of the program leads to the acquisition of qualifications. School-based education aims to enhance knowledge through business-based training and to ensure the acquisition of competences and skills. The aim is also to ensure that the school section of the program develops students' general competences and lays the foundations for lifelong learning. Educational systems should offer to apprenticeship’s teachers the opportunities for a career development in order to maintain a high level of teaching and maintain a high-quality educational potential. Although the role of Greek teachers in apprenticeship is clearly defined, there is a lack of training opportunities in the methods and its contents, which drives to an unsuccessful implementation of an apprenticeship.

description: The angular dependence of the upper critical field Hc2 of MgB2 single crystals is studied at various temperatures by means of specific heat and transport measurements in magnetic fields up to 17 T. Clear deviations from Ginzburg-Landau behavior are observed at all temperatures and are explained by two-band effects. The angular- and temperature dependence of the deviations are in qualitative agreement with theoretical predictions based on band-structure calculations. Quantitative agreement is obtained with an interband coupling slightly stronger than the calculated, enabling band-structure anisotropies and interband coupling strength to be experimentally estimated. This provides a new pathway to the study of disorder and doping effects in MgB2.
