description: Novel halogenated purines and pseudopurines with diverse aryl-substituted 1,2,3-triazoles were prepared. While p-(trifluoromethyl)-substituted 1,2,3-triazole in N-9 alkylated purine and 3-deazapurine was critical for strong albeit unselective activity on pancreatic adenocarcinoma cells CFPAC-1,1-(p-fluorophenyl)-1,2,3-triazole derivative of 7-deazapurine showed selective cytostatic effect on metastatic colon cancer cells SW620. Importantly, 1-(p-chlorophenyl)-1,2,3-triazole-tagged benzimidazole displayed the most pronounced and highly selective inhibitory effect in nM range on non-small cell lung cancer A549. This compound revealed to target molecular processes at the extracellular side and inside the plasma membrane regulated by GPLD1 and growth factor receptors PDGFR and IGF-1R leading to the inhibition of cell proliferation and induction of apoptosis mediated by p38 MAP kinase and NF-κB, respectively. Further optimisation of this compound as to reduce its toxicity in normal cells may lead to the development of novel agent effective against lung cancer.

description: This talk describes how a combination of symbolic computation techniques with first-order theorem proving can be used for solving some challenges of automating program analysis, in particular for generating and proving properties about the logically complex parts of software. The talk will first present how computer algebra methods, such as Groebner basis computation, quantifier elimination and algebraic recurrence solving, help us in inferring properties of program loops with non-trivial arithmetic. Typical properties inferred by our work are loop invariants and expressions bounding the number of loop iterations. The talk will then describe our work to generate first-order properties of programs with unbounded data structures, such as arrays. For doing so, we use saturation-based first-order theorem proving and extend first-order provers with support for program analysis. Since program analysis requires reasoning in the combination of first-order theories of data structures, the talk also discusses new features in firstorder theorem proving, such as inductive reasoning and built-in boolean sort. These extensions allow us to express program properties directly in first-order logic and hence use further first-order theorem provers to reason about program properties.

description: Magnetic fields are ubiquitous in the Universe. Extragalactic disks, halos and clusters have consistently been shown, via diffuse radio-synchrotron emission and Faraday rotation measurements, to exhibit magnetic field strengths ranging from a few nG to tens of $μ$G. The energy density of these fields is typically comparable to the energy density of the fluid motions of the plasma in which they are embedded, making magnetic fields essential players in the dynamics of the luminous matter. The standard theoretical model for the origin of these strong magnetic fields is through the amplification of tiny seed fields via turbulent dynamo to the level consistent with current observations. Here we demonstrate, using laser-produced colliding plasma flows, that turbulence is indeed capable of rapidly amplifying seed fields to near equipartition with the turbulent fluid motions. These results support the notion that turbulent dynamo is a viable mechanism responsible for the observed present-day magnetization of the Universe.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: In this work, we investigated the performance of porous carbon prepared from carob (Ceratonia siliqua L.) processing residues at optimized conditions for the removal of the Basic Green 4 (BG4) and Direct Red 28 (DR28) dyes from aqueous solutions. The influence of several parameters such as adsorbent dose, initial dye concentration, contact time and temperature was evaluated in batch adsorption experiments. Maximum adsorption capacities were observed as 769 mg g−1 and 323 mg g−1 for BG4 and DR28, respectively. These results suggest that BG4 and DR28 could be removed using a novel porous carbon from carob processing residues.
Zero-field Skyrmions with a High Topological Number in Itinerant Magnets

description: Magnetic skyrmions are swirling spin textures with topologically protected noncoplanarity. Recently, skyrmions with the topological number of unity have been extensively studied in both experiment and theory. We here show that a skyrmion crystal with an unusually high topological number of two is stabilized in itinerant magnets at zero magnetic field. The results are obtained for a minimal Kondo lattice model on a triangular lattice by an unrestricted large-scale numerical simulation and variational calculations. We find that the topological number can be switched by a magnetic field as $2\leftrightarrow 1\leftrightarrow 0$. The skyrmion crystals are formed by the superpositions of three spin density waves induced by the Fermi surface effect, and hence, the size of skyrmions can be controlled by the band structure and electron filling. We also discuss the charge and spin textures of itinerant electrons in the skyrmion crystals which are directly obtained in our numerical simulations.

description: Salting-out-assisted liquid–liquid extraction (SALLE) was developed to extract thiacloprid (THI) from fruits and vegetables. SALLE conditions (NaCl/Na2SO4, pH, and solvent polarity) were investigated at various levels for the optimal recovery of THI. Meanwhile, reverse-phase high-performance liquid chromatographic (RP-HPLC) conditions were balanced over 1–100 µg/mL of THI. The optimized SALLE-RP-HPLC method offered 78.33–92.00% recovery of standard THI at an acceptable repeatability 1.81–4.30% and reproducibility 1.08–4.74%. The detection and quantification limits were found to be 0.03 and 0.05 µg/mL, respectively. The real-time analysis verifies its suitability and ease of use for the determination of THI in agricultural commodities.

description: High-temperature, high-dose, neutron irradiation of W results in the formation of Re-rich clusters at concentrations one order of magnitude lower than the thermodynamic solubility limit. These clusters may eventually transform into brittle W-Re intermetallic phases, which can lead to high levels of hardening and thermal conductivity losses. Standard theories of radiation enhanced diffusion and precipitation cannot explain the formation of these precipitates and so understanding the mechanism by which nonequilibrium clusters form under irradiation is crucial to predict materials degradation and devise mitigation strategies. Here we carry out a thermodynamic study of W-Re alloys and conduct kinetic Monte Carlo simulations of Re cluster formation in irradiated W-2Re alloys using a generalized Hamiltonian for crystals containing point defects parameterized entirely with electronic structure calculations. Our model incorporates recently-gained mechanistic information of mixed-interstitial solute transport, which is seen to control cluster nucleation and growth by forming quasi-spherical nuclei after an average incubation time of 20 s at 1800 K. These nuclei are seen to grow by attracting more mixed interstitials bringing solute atoms, which in turns attracts vacancies leading to recombination and solute agglomeration. The clusters grow to a maximum size of approximately 4-nm radius, and are not fully dense with Re, containing 50% or less near the center. Our simulations are in reasonable agreement with recent atom probe examinations of ion irradiated W-2Re systems at 773 K.
Action of Automorphisms on Irreducible Characters of Symplectic Groups

description: Assume $G$ is a finite symplectic group $\mathrm{Sp}_{2n}(q)$ over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_q$ of odd characteristic. We describe the action of the automorphism group $\mathrm{Aut}(G)$ on the set $\mathrm{Irr}(G)$ of ordinary irreducible characters of $G$. This description relies on the equivariance of Deligne--Lusztig induction with respect to automorphisms. We state a version of this equivariance which gives a precise way to compute the automorphism on the corresponding Levi subgroup; this may be of independent interest. As an application we prove that the global condition in Späth's criterion for the inductive McKay condition holds for the irreducible characters of $\mathrm{Sp}_{2n}(q)$.

description: The daily rhythm of glucose metabolism is governed by the circadian clock, which consists of cell-autonomous clock machineries residing in nearly every tissue in the body. Disruption of these clock machineries either environmentally or genetically induces the dysregulation of glucose metabolism. Although the roles of clock machineries in the regulation of glucose metabolism have been uncovered in major metabolic tissues, such as the pancreas, liver, and skeletal muscle, it remains unknown whether clock function in non-major metabolic tissues also affects systemic glucose metabolism. Here, we tested the hypothesis that disruption of the clock machinery in the heart might also affect systemic glucose metabolism, because heart function is known to be associated with glucose tolerance. We examined glucose and insulin tolerance as well as heart phenotypes in mice with heart-specific deletion of Bmal1, a core clock gene. Bmal1 deletion in the heart not only decreased heart function but also led to systemic insulin resistance. Moreover, hyperglycemia was induced with age. Furthermore, heart-specific Bmal1-deficient mice exhibited decreased insulin-induced phosphorylation of Akt in the liver, thus indicating that Bmal1 deletion in the heart causes hepatic insulin resistance. Our findings revealed an unexpected effect of the function of clock machinery in a non-major metabolic tissue, the heart, on systemic glucose metabolism in mammals.
Mechanical properties of 3D printed parts and discovering zinc fused deposition modeling

description: #D printing is becoming a common method of additive manufacturing complex parts for assembly or final net-shape items. The final 3D printed artefact is to be investigated and compared against traditional methods of manufacturing (injection moulding). To investigate the effects of the 3D printing parameters, layer, size, temperature, print head speed and filament material. This paper will investigate and develop novel direct zinc metal FDM for possible applications such as biomedical and electronics tracing. The novel metal FDM will focus on pure zinc (99.9%), with future developments for zinc magnesium alloys. The purpose of this novel FDM is to produce biocompatible complex shapes for vivo use and for electronics as traces for circuitry.
Aspects of myodocopin (Ostracoda) biology and crustacean iridescence
Creators: name: Parker, Andrew Richard
Publisher: name: Macquarie University
Year: 2022
Subjects: Other education not elsewhere classified

description: This study describes the following discoveries I made while working on cypridinid ostracods, and subsequently other crustaceans. -- Two new cypridinid genera, Cohenia and Lowrya, containing the species C. taiti and L. kornickeri, and a new species of cypridinid, Vargula karamu, are established. The genus Cohenia bears an unusual type of sensilla, termed a trichocoel. Trichocoels may be velocity detectors, which detect either steady fluid drainage motion or acoustic motion in the surrounding water. The furca is used as a major feeding tool in scavenging cypridinids. The hard section of the dorsal body wall almost adjacent to the furca in all myodocopins is termed the sclerosome. The sclerosome provides support for certain fureal muscles, and protection for the soft body when the carapace is opened. The central adductor muscles of myodocopins, are arranged as a group of small muscles, rather than a single large muscle, allowing different areas of the anterior, ventral, and posterior carapace margins to open almost independently of each other. The sensory seta of the fifth article of the myodocopin first antenna is termed the sseta. Setules of the s-seta, and some from other long first antennal setae, have a finely ringed ultrastructure and are termed halophores. The halophores of one first antenna are collectively termed the halothalium. The grooved external surface of a halophore acts as a diffraction grating, and causes highly efficient iridescence. This iridescence is functional during courtship in at least some cypridinids. Some cypridinids copulate in a position where ventral carapace margins are juxtaposed, and anterior ends are opposite. Copulation in these ostracods is completed in about five seconds. The cypridinids have evolved with light as a major stimulus. Based on phylogenetic studies, iridescence appears to be a precursor to cypridinid bioluminescence, and the myodocopin compound eye may have evolved independently. Iridescence is widespread throughout the Crustacea, occurring as a result of external diffraction gratings, or internal multilayer reflectors.
The one and the many of experience: the tension between mereology and holism in Tim Bayne's account of the unity of consciousness

description: When eating a grape while listening to a symphony, you have a single phenomenally unified experience containing both component experiences, rather than many disjoint ones. Tim Bayne's account of the unity of consciousness has two features that seem to be in tension with each other. On the one hand, he insists that component experiences are real token phenomenal experiences in their own right (mereology) and that phenomenal unity is grounded in mereological relations. On the other hand, he insists that the whole experience is metaphysically prior to the components and that component experiences cannot exist independently of the whole (holism). After briefly surveying previous objections to Bayne's mereological conception, I elaborate on this tension by comparing Bayne's holism with the "No Experiential Parts" view, and consider a number of interpretations of Bayne that might resolve the tension. Perhaps it is just a metter of different descriptions? Perhaps there is a special kind of decomposition? Or perhaps the mutual influence of component states upon each other's characters can support Bayne's account? Ultimately, none of them seem satisfactory, and the tension remains.

description: We present Iron, Magnesium, Calcium, and Titanium abundances for 235 stars in the central region of the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal galaxy (within 9.0 arcmin ~70 pc from the center) from medium-resolution Keck/DEIMOS spectra. All the considered stars belong to the massive globular cluster M54 or to the central nucleus of the galaxy (Sgr,N). In particular we provide abundances for 109 stars with [Fe/H] > -1.0, more than doubling the available sample of spectroscopic metallicity and alpha-elements abundance estimates for Sgr dSph stars in this metallicity regime. Also, we find the first confirmed member of the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal with [Fe/H]< -2.0 based on analysis of iron lines. We find for the first time a metallicity gradient in the Sgr,N population, whose peak iron abundance goes from [Fe/H]=-0.38 for R < 2.5 arcmin to [Fe/H]=-0.57 for 5.0 < R < 9.0 arcmin. On the other hand the trends of [Mg/Fe], [Ca/Fe], and [Ti/Fe] with [Fe/H] are the same over the entire region explored by our study. We reproduce the observed chemical patterns of the Sagittarius dwarf spheroidal as a whole with a chemical evolution model implying a high mass progenitor ( M_(DM)=6 X 10^{10} Msun ) and a significant event of mass-stripping occurred a few Gyr ago, presumably starting at the first peri-Galactic passage after infall.

description: Technical toxaphene (TT) is a liver tumor promoter in B6C3F1 mice but not in F344 rats. To further evaluate dose-response relationships for weathered toxaphene, B6C3F1 mouse hepatocytes were treated with TT alone, five selected persistent congeners (p-26, p-50, p-62, Hx-Sed, and Hp-Sed), or two selected congener mixtures (simulating weathered toxaphene) and dose-response relationships were characterized for cytotoxicity and gap junction intercellular communication (GJIC) inhibition. Phenobarbital was included as a positive control for mouse liver tumor promotion and GJIC inhibition and dose ranges were calibrated to define benchmark dose concentrations. Each treatment group exhibited significant cytotoxicity and GJIC inhibition for at least one sex (M/F) after 3 and/or 24 h of treatment. Maximum GJIC inhibition was observed at certain noncytotoxic concentrations with sex-specific differences in relative potency estimated as the effective concentration at 20% inhibition (EC20); however, no significant EC20 differences were observed between the treatment groups. Analysis of mixture interactions at the EC20 showed that GJIC inhibition of the two weathered toxaphene mixtures was significantly less than additive compared to that for the component congeners. These findings suggest that the persistent toxaphene congener mixtures tested are not more tumorigenic than the parent insecticide mixture.

Ray mapping approach in double freeform surface design for collimated beam shaping beyond the paraxial approximation

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2017

description: Numerous applications require the simultaneous redistribution of the irradiance and phase of a laser beam. The beam shape is thereby determined by the respective application. An elegant way to control the irradiance and phase at the same time is from double freeform surfaces. In this work the numerical design of continuous double freeform surfaces from ray mapping methods for collimated beam shaping with arbitrary irradiances is considered. These methods consist of the calculation of a proper ray mapping between the source and the target irradiance and the subsequent construction of the freeform surfaces. By combining the law of refraction, the constant optical path length and the surface continuity condition, a partial differential equation (PDE) for the ray mapping is derived. It is shown that the PDE can be fulfilled in a small-angle approximation by a mapping derived from optimal mass transport with a quadratic cost function. To overcome the restriction to the paraxial regime we use this mapping as an initial iterate for the simultaneous solution of the Jacobian equation and the ray mapping PDE by an optimization. The presented approach enables the efficient calculation of compact double freeform surfaces for complex target irradiances. This is demonstrated by applying it to the design of a single-lens and a two-lens system.

description: The LHC has recently released precise measurements of the transverse momentum distribution of the Z-boson that provide a unique constraint on the structure of the proton. Theoretical developments now allow the prediction of these observables through next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) in perturbative QCD. In this work we study the impact of incorporating these latest advances into a determination of parton distribution functions (PDFs) through NNLO including the recent ATLAS and CMS 7 TeV and 8 TeV $p_T^Z$ data. We investigate the consistency of these measurements in a global fit to the available data and quantify the impact of including the $p_T^Z$ distributions on the PDFs. The inclusion of these new data sets significantly reduces the uncertainties on select parton distributions and the corresponding parton-parton luminosities. In particular, we find that the $p_T^Z$ data ultimately leads to a reduction of the PDF uncertainty on the gluon-fusion and vector-boson fusion Higgs production cross sections by about 30%, while keeping the central values nearly unchanged.

description: High-frequency photons traveling in plasma exhibit a linear polarizability that can influence the dispersion of linear plasma waves. We present a detailed calculation of this effect for Langmuir waves as a characteristic example. Two alternative formulations are given. In the first formulation, we calculate the modified dispersion of Langmuir waves by solving the governing equations for the electron fluid, where the photon contribution enters as a ponderomotive force. In the second formulation, we provide a derivation based on the photon polarizability. Then, the calculation of ponderomotive forces is not needed, and the result is more general.

description: A noncommutative KdV-type equation is introduced extending the Baecklund chart in [S. Carillo, M. Lo Schiavo, and C. Schiebold, SIGMA 12 (2016)]. This equation, called meta-mKdV here, is linked by Cole-Hopf transformations to the two noncommutative versions of the mKdV equations listed in [P.J. Olver and V.V. Sokolov Commun. Math. Phys. 193 (1998), Theorem 3.6]. For this meta-mKdV, and its mirror counterpart, recursion operators, hierarchies and an explicit solution class are derived.

description: In this paper, we consider a backward in time problem for Ginzburg-Landau equation in multidimensional domain associated with some random data. The problem is ill-posed in the sense of Hadamard. To regularize the instable solution, we develop a new regularized method combined with statistical approach to solve this problem. We prove a upper bound, on the rate of convergence of the mean integrated squared error in $L^2 $ norm and $H^1$ norm.

description: The main purpose of this empirical exploratory research is to explore the impacts and challenges of the World Bank four pillars of Knowledge-based economy on the UAE transformation into a knowledge-based economy. This is a mixed approach study, qualitative followed by quantitative. This project went into two phases, phase one was about reviewing the literature. Systemic review was utilized to analyze the content. The output of this phase was designing the survey questionnaire for this study. The second phase was collecting the primary data through a quantitative survey that was filled by 535 experts from UAE but only from three emirates Abu Dhabi, Dubai, and Sharjah. Also, participants were from the government and private sectors only the sectors related to the World Bank four pillars of knowledge economy. The findings of the data analysis are that only three pillars of the World Bank four knowledge economy pillars have significant relationship with knowledge economy development in the UAE. The three pillars are Government Institutions and Economic Incentives, Education and Training and Information and Communication technology. While the fourth pillar which is Research and Innovation, the results of this study found that this pillar has non-significant relationship with the sustainable knowledge economy development, which means that UAE government should work hard on developing this pillar for the country to transform smoothly into knowledge-based economy. The original value of this research is that it explores the knowledge economy in the UAE from a holistic view. Also, this is the first empirical study that explores the World Bank four pillars of knowledge-based economy in the UAE. Therefore, this study will act as a foundation for other future studies of knowledge economy development in the UAE.

description: In this work, non-collinear spin DFT + U approaches with spin-orbit coupling (SOC) are applied to Ln3+ doped β-NaYF4 (Ln = Ce, Pr) nanocrystals in Vienna ab initio Simulation Package taking into account unpaired spin configurations using the Perdew–Burke–Ernzerhof functional in a plane wave basis set. The calculated absorption spectra from non-collinear spin DFT + U approaches are compared with that from spin-polarised DFT + U approaches. The spectral difference indicates the importance of spin–flip transitions of Ln3+ ions. Suite of codes for nonadiabatic dynamics has been developed for 2-component spinor orbitals. On-the-fly nonadiabatic coupling calculations provide transition probabilities facilitated by nuclear motion. Relaxation rates of electrons and holes are calculated using Redfield theory in the reduced density matrix formalism cast in the basis of non-collinear spin DFT + U with SOC. The emission spectra are calculated using the time-integrated method along the excited state trajectories based on nonadiabatic couplings.

description: Recent advances in the experimental growth and control of disordered thin films, heterostructures, and interfaces provide a fertile ground for the observation and characterisation of the collective superconducting excitations emerging below $T_c$ after breaking the $U(1)$ gauge symmetry. Here we combine THz experiments in a nano-structured granular Al thin film and theoretical calculations to demonstrate the existence of optically-active phase modes, which represent the Goldstone excitations of the broken gauge symmetry. By measuring the complex transmission trough the sample we identify a sizeable and temperature-dependent optical sub-gap absorption, which cannot be ascribed to quasiparticle excitations. A quantitative modelling of this material as a disordered Josephson array of nano-grains allows us to determine, with no free parameters, the structure of the spatial inhomogeneities induced by shell effects. Besides being responsible for the enhancement of the critical temperature with respect to bulk Al, already observed in the past, this spatial inhomogeneity provides a mechanism for the optical visibility of the Goldstone mode. By computing explicitly the optical spectrum of the superconducting phase fluctuations we obtain a good quantitative description of the experimental data. Our results demonstrate that nanograins arrays are a promising setting to study and control the collective superconducting excitations via optical means.
CH as a Molecular Gas Tracer and C-Shock Tracer Across a Molecular Cloud Boundary in Taurus

description: We present new observations of all three ground-state transitions of the methylidyne (CH) radical and all four ground-state transitions of the hydroxyl (OH) radical toward a sharp boundary region of the Taurus molecular cloud. These data were analyzed in conjunction with existing CO and dust images. The derived CH abundance is consistent with previous observations of translucent clouds ($0.8\le A_{v} \le 2.1$ mag). The $X({\rm CH})$-factor is nearly a constant at $(1.0\pm0.06)\times 10^{22}$ $\rm {cm^{-2}~K^{-1}~km^{-1}~s}$ in this extinction range, with less dispersion than that of the more widely used molecular tracers CO and OH. CH turns out be a better tracer of total column density in such an intermediate extinction range than CO or OH. Compared with previous observations, CH is overabundant below 1 mag extinction. Such an overabundance of CH is consistent with the presence of a C-shock. CH has two kinematic components, one of which shifts from 5.3 to 6 km s$^{-1}$, while the other stays at 6.8 km s$^{-1}$ when moving from outside toward inside of the cloud. These velocity behaviors exactly match with previous OH observation. The shifting of the two kinematic components indicates colliding streams or gas flow at the boundary region, which could be the cause of the C-shock.

description: Cluster expansion (CE) is effective in modeling the stability of metallic alloys, but sometimes cluster expansions fail. Failures are often attributed to atomic relaxation in the DFT-calculated data, but there is no metric for quantifying the degree of relaxation. Additionally, numerical errors can also be responsible for slow CE convergence. We studied over one hundred different Hamiltonians and identified a heuristic, based on a normalized mean-squared displacement of atomic positions in a crystal, to determine if the effects of relaxation in CE data are too severe to build a reliable CE model. Using this heuristic, CE practitioners can determine a priori whether or not an alloy system can be reliably expanded in the cluster basis. We also examined the error distributions of the fitting data. We find no clear relationship between the type of error distribution and CE prediction ability, but there are clear correlations between CE formalism reliability, model complexity, and the number of significant terms in the model. Our results show that the \emph{size} of the errors is much more important than their distribution.
