description: We propose two potentially practical schemes to carry out two-qubit quantum gates on endohedral fullerenes $N@C_{60}$ or $P@C_{60}$. The qubits are stored in electronic spin degrees of freedom of the doped atom $N$ or $P$. By means of the magnetic dipolar coupling between two neighboring fullerenes, the two-qubit controlled-NOT gate and the two-qubit conditional phase gate are performed by selective microwave pulses assisted by refocusing technique. We will discuss the necessary additional steps for the universality of our proposal. We will also show that our proposal is useful for both quantum gating and the readout of quantum information from the spin-based qubit state.

description: We investigate the use of relativistically blurred photoionized disc models on an XMM-Newton observation of the Narrow Line Seyfert 1 galaxy PG 1404+226. The model is designed to reproduce the radiation from the inner accretion disc around a Kerr black hole, and is more successful at fitting the spectrum than models based on a thermal soft excess. The source varies strongly over the course of the observation, and the disc model works over all observed flux states. We conclude that it is a useful tool in the study of certain quasars.

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A search for scalar and vector leptoquarks coupling to first generation fermions is performed using the e^+p and e^-p scattering data collected by the H1 experiment between 1994 and 2000. The data correspond to a total integrated luminosity of 117 pb^{-1}. No evidence for the direct or indirect production of such particles is found in data samples with a large transverse momentum final state electron or with large missing transverse momentum. Constraints on leptoquark models are established. For leptoquark couplings of electromagnetic strength, leptoquarks with masses up to 275-325 GeV are ruled out. These limits improve and supercede earlier H1 limits based on subsamples of the data used here.

description: Many projects relies on cognitives sciences, neurosciences, computer sciences and robotics. They concerned today the building of autonomous artificial beings able to think. This paper shows a model to compare the human thinking with an hypothetic numerical way of thinking based on four hierarchies : the information system classification, the cognitive pyramid, the linguistic pyramid and the digital information hierarchy. After a state of art on the nature of human thinking, feasibility of autonomous multi-agent systems provided with artificial consciousness which are able to think is discussed. The ethical aspects and consequences for humanity of such systems is evaluated. These systems lead the scientific community to react.

description: Materials with large magnetocrystalline anisotropy and strong electric field effects are highly needed to develop new types of memory devices based on electric field control of spin orientations. Instead of using modified transition metal films, we propose that certain monolayer transition metal dichalcogenides are the ideal candidate materials for this purpose. Using density functional calculations, we show that they exhibit not only a large magnetocrystalline anisotropy (MCA), but also colossal voltage modulation under external field. Notably, in some materials like CrSe_2 and FeSe_2, where spins show a strong preference for in-plane orientation, they can be switched to out-of-plane direction. This effect is attributed to the large band character alteration that the transition metal d-states undergo around the Fermi energy due to the electric field. We further demonstrate that strain can also greatly change MCA, and can help to improve the modulation efficiency while combined with an electric field.

This includes a variety of conventional double-slit experiments, but also particle oscillations, as in the case of the neutral-kaon system, and Mott scattering of identical nuclei. For all these cases, a unified description can be achieved including a new parameter, $ν$, which quantifies the effective number of fringes one can observe in each specific interferometric set-up.

An Optimal Strategy for Accurate Bulge-to-disk Decomposition of Disk Galaxies

description: The development of two-dimensional (2D) bulge-to-disk decomposition techniques has shown their advantages over traditional one-dimensional (1D) techniques, especially for galaxies with non-axisymmetric features. However, the full potential of 2D techniques has yet to be fully exploited. Secondary morphological features in nearby disk galaxies, such as bars, lenses, rings, disk breaks, and spiral arms, are seldom accounted for in 2D image decompositions, even though some image-fitting codes, such as GALFIT, are capable of handling them. We present detailed, 2D multi-model and multi-component decomposition of high-quality $R$-band images of a representative sample of nearby disk galaxies selected from the Carnegie-Irvine Galaxy Survey, using the latest version of GALFIT. The sample consists of five barred and five unbarred galaxies, spanning Hubble types from S0 to Sc. Traditional 1D decomposition is also presented for comparison. In detailed case studies of the 10 galaxies, we successfully model the secondary morphological features. Through a comparison of best-fit parameters obtained from different input surface brightness models, we identify morphological features that significantly impact bulge measurements. We show that nuclear and inner lenses/rings and disk breaks must be properly taken into account to obtain accurate bulge parameters, whereas outer lenses/rings and spiral arms have a negligible effect. We provide an optimal strategy to measure bulge parameters of typical disk galaxies, as well as prescriptions to estimate realistic uncertainties of them, which will benefit subsequent decomposition of a larger galaxy sample.

description: To determine the effectiveness of ablation for pulmonary metastases (PM) from hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Between 2010 and 2017, the study analyzed 39 patients who had a median age of 59 years. Primary HCC was under control and the number of PM was less than 5 (median: 2), with a maximum diameter of ≤60 mm (median: 15 mm). The primary endpoints were overall survival (OS) and local tumor progression-free survival (LTPFS). Secondary endpoints included technique success (TS), complication and tumor response. TS referred to PM treated using the treatment protocol. Multivariate analysis using the Cox proportional hazard model was conducted on the potential risk factors (univariate: p < 0.5) to determine the independent factors (multivariate: p < 0.05). The TS rate was 100%. Major complications included pneumothorax (n = 3) requiring chest tube placement and pleural effusion requiring drainage (n = 2). Complete ablation was achieved in 32/38 patients (valid percent: 84.2%) at 1 month after ablation. The 1-, 3- and 5-year OS rates were 79.8, 58 and 30.9%, respectively. The 1-, 3- and 5-year LTPFS rates were 60.7, 34.2 and 22.8%, respectively. The extent (unilateral vs. bilateral) of PM (hazard ratio (HR): 0.197, 95% confidence interval (CI): 0.043–0.890, p = 0.035) and the number (≤2 vs. >2) of PM (HR: 0.555, 95% CI: 0.311–0.991, p = 0.047) were found to be the independent risk factors for predicting OS. Percutaneous thermal ablation is a safe and effective treatment for PM from HCC.
Flux Modulation from Non-Axisymmetric Stuctures in Accretion Discs

description: Non-axisymmetric accretion discs can lead to flux variability. Here we provide an analytic framework for modeling non-axisymmetric structures like hotspots and spiral waves and their influence on observed timing measurements. The presently unexplained Low-frequency Quasi-Periodic Oscillations (LFQPO), observed in X-ray binaries and cataclysmic variables, could be the result of such discs. Our framework serves as a guide to quantify the properties that non-axisymmetric structures produced by nonlinear accretion disc models must have in order to explain observed features such as LFQPOs. The results from our microquasar appliations also provide analogous predictions for X-ray modulation in active galactic nuclei. The formalism and physical interpration is of practical use for generic non-axisymmetric accretion disc systems.

description: Motivated by the experimental detection of superconductivity in the low-carrier density half-Heusler compound YPtBi, we study the pairing instabilities of three-dimensional strongly spin-orbit coupled semimetals with a quadratic band touching point. In these semimetals the electronic structure at the Fermi energy is described by spin j=3/2 quasiparticles, which are fundamentally different from those in ordinary metals with spin j=1/2. We develop a general approach to analyzing pairing instabilities in j=3/2 materials by decomposing the pair scattering interaction into irreducible channels, projecting them to the Fermi surface and deriving the corresponding Eliashberg theory. Applying our method to a generic density-density interaction in YPtBi we establish the following results: (i) The pairing strength in each channel uniquely encodes the j=3/2 nature of the Fermi surface band structure--a manifestation of the fundamental difference with ordinary metals. In particular, this implies that Anderson's theorem, which addresses the effect of spin-orbit coupling and disorder on pairing states of spin-1/2 electrons, cannot be applied in this case. (ii) The leading pairing instabilities are different for electron and hole doping. This implies that superconductivity depends on carrier type. (iii) In the case of hole doping--relevant to YPtBi, we find two odd-parity channels in close competition with s-wave pairing. One of these two channels is a multicomponent pairing channel, allowing for the possibility of time-reversal symmetry breaking. (iv) In the case of Coulomb interactions mediated by the long-ranged electric polarization of optical phonon modes, a significant coupling strength is generated in spite of the extremely low density of carriers. Furthermore, non-linear response and Fermi liquid corrections can favor non-s-wave pairing and potentially account for the experimentally-observed Tc.

description: Literature suggests that international students from Asian countries might differ in the way they can be supported in their efforts towards completing their degree. Using the 2004/09 Beginning Postsecondary Students Longitudinal Study, the authors investigate how social and academic integration relate to the college persistence of Asian and non-Asian international undergraduate students at U.S. postsecondary institutions. Four logistic regression models revealed that Asian and non-Asian students differed in the way academic and social integration were related to persistence, depending on their year of undergraduate study. These findings signal the importance of year of study and cultural background in thinking about how to support student degree completion.

description: Dark matter that interacts with the Standard Model by exchanging photons through higher multipole interactions occurs in a wide range of both strongly as well as weakly coupled hidden sector models. We study the collider detection prospects of these candidates, with a focus on Majorana dark matter that couples through the anapole moment. The study is conducted at the effective field theory level with the mono-$Z$ signature incorporating varying levels of systematic uncertainties at the high-luminosity LHC. The projected collider reach on the anapole moment is then compared to the reach coming from direct detection experiments like LZ. Finally, the analysis is applied to a weakly coupled completion with leptophilic dark matter.

description: We present a detailed, two dimensional numerical study of the microphysical conditions and dynamical evolution of accretion disks around black holes when neutrino emission is the main source of cooling. Such structures are likely to form after the gravitational collapse of massive rotating stellar cores, or the coalescence of two compact objects in a binary (e.g., the Hulse--Taylor system). The physical composition is determined self consistently by considering two regimes: neutrino--opaque and neutrino--transparent, with a detailed equation of state which takes into account neutronization, nuclear statistical equilibrium of a gas of free nucleons and alpha particles, blackbody radiation and a relativistic Fermi gas of arbitrary degeneracy. Various neutrino emission processes are considered, with electron/positron capture onto free nucleons providing the dominant contribution to the cooling rate. We find that important temporal and spatial scales, related to the optically thin/optically thick transition are present in the disk, and manifest themselves clearly in the energy output in neutrinos. This transition produces an inversion of the lepton gradient in the innermost regions of the flow which drives convective motions, and affects the density and disk scale height radial profiles. The electron fraction remains low in the region close to the black hole, and if preserved in an outflow, could give rise to heavy element nucleosynthesis. Our specific initial conditions arise from the binary merger context, and so we explore the implications of our results for the production of gamma ray bursts.

description: The purpose of the thesis was to study the CR1 and TLR9 receptors in red blood cells from patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease. The patient samples were all obtained from the 1st University Pathological Clinic of General Hospital of Alexandroupolis, supervised by Professor Mimidis. The research part of the thesis was conducted at the Biochemistry Laboratory of the Medical School of the University of Thessaloniki, under the supervision of Professors Tentes and Anagnostopoulos, as well as with the assistance of postdoctoral researcher Papadopoulos. The pathobiology of the disease is not fully understood, and many research efforts focus on identifying reliable biomarkers and designing effective therapeutic approaches. The CR1 and TLR9 receptors play crucial roles in the mechanisms of innate and adaptive immunity. Until now, the distribution pattern of these receptors in the red blood cells of patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease is not known. Essentially, this thesis, by analyzing the correlation of receptors with the disease, will address the implications of Regenerative Medicine for later analyses of therapeutic approaches and prognostic biomarkers for the disease.

description: The roots of Sophora flavescens have a long history of use in Chinese medicine for the treatment of various medical conditions. Flavonoids from the ethyl acetate extract of S. flavescens have shown anti-inflammatory, anticancer, and antidiabetic properties. The objective of this study was to evaluate the toxicological profile of a flavonoid-rich extract of S. flavescens (SFEA). We conducted acute and sub-chronic oral toxicity studies of SFEA in Kunming (KM) mice and Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats. Acute oral administration of 9.0 g/kg SFEA did not result in mortality, clinical signs of toxicity, or abnormal changes in the body weight or food consumption patterns. No significant changes in hematological, blood biochemical, or histopathological parameters were observed. A 13-week sub-chronic toxicity study was conducted in SD rats; the rats were orally administrated with various doses of SFEA (in mg/kg): 0 (control), 40, 80, 400, 800, and 1200. Mortality, clinical signs, or treatment-related changes in body weight, food consumption, hematological parameters, blood biochemical parameters, organ weights, or histopathological parameters were not observed. We found that SFEA is practically nontoxic to KM mice at a dose of 9.0 g/kg and that the no-observed-adverse-effect-level (NOAEL) of SFEA in SD rats is greater than 1200 mg/kg.

description: We present a theoretical study of the relationship between entanglement and entropy in multi-qubit quantum optical systems. Specifically we investigate quantitative relations between the concurrence and linear entropy for a two-qubit mixed system, implemented as two two-level atoms interacting with a single-mode cavity field. The dynamical evolutions of the entanglement and entropy, are controlled via time-dependent cavity-atom couplings. Our theoretical findings lead us to propose an alternative measure of entanglement, which could be used to develop a much needed correlation measure for more general multi-partite quantum systems.

description: The folding of a protein towards its native state is a rather complicated process. However there are empirical evidences that the folding time correlates with the contact order, a simple measure of the spatial organisation of the native state of the protein. Contact order is related to the average length of the main chain loops formed by amino acids which are in contact. Here we argue that folding kinetics can be influenced also by the entanglement that loops may undergo within the overall three dimensional protein structure. In order to explore such possibility, we introduce a novel descriptor, which we call "maximum intrachain contact entanglement". Specifically, we measure the maximum Gaussian entanglement between any looped portion of a protein and any other non-overlapping subchain of the same protein, which is easily computed by discretized line integrals on the coordinates of the $C_α$ atoms. By analyzing experimental data sets of two-state and multistate folders, we show that also the new index is a good predictor of the folding rate. Moreover, being only partially correlated with previous methods, it can be integrated with them to yield more accurate predictions.

description: Texts with potential educational value are becoming available through the Internet (e.g., Wikipedia, news services). However, using these new texts in classrooms introduces many challenges, one of which is that they usually lack practice exercises and assessments. Here, we address part of this challenge by automating the creation of a specific type of assessment item. Specifically, we focus on automatically generating factual WH questions. Our goal is to create an automated system that can take as input a text and produce as output questions for assessing a reader’s knowledge of the information in the text. The questions could then be presented to a teacher, who could select and revise the ones that he or she judges to be useful.After introducing the problem, we describe some of the computational and linguistic challenges presented by factual question generation. We then present an implemented system that leverages existing natural language processing techniques to address some of these challenges. The system uses a combination of manually encoded transformation rules and a statistical question ranker trained on a tailored dataset of labeled system output. We present experiments that evaluate individual components of the system as well as the system as a whole. We found, among other things, that the question ranker roughly doubled the acceptability rate of top-ranked questions. In a user study, we tested whether K-12 teachers could efficiently create factual questions by selecting and revising suggestions from the system. Offering automatic suggestions reduced the time and effort spent by participants, though it also affected the types of questions that were created. This research supports the idea that natural language processing can help teachers efficiently create instructional content. It provides solutions to some of the major challenges in question generation and an analysis and better understanding of those that remain.

description: We introduce a dataset of 142 mostly late-type spiral, irregular, and peculiar (interacting or merging) nearby galaxies observed in UBVR at the Vatican Advanced Technology Telescope (VATT), and present an analysis of their radial color gradients. We confirm that nearby elliptical and early- to mid-type spiral galaxies show either no or only small color gradients, becoming slightly bluer with radius. In contrast, we find that late-type spiral, irregular, peculiar, and merging galaxies become on average redder with increasing distance from the center. The scatter in radial color gradient trends increases toward later Hubble type. As a preliminary analysis of a larger data-set obtained with the Hubble Space Telescope (HST), we also analyze the color gradients of six nearby galaxies observed with NICMOS in the near-IR (H) and with WFPC2 in the mid-UV (F300W) and red (F814W). We discuss the possible implication of these results on galaxy formation and compare our nearby galaxy color gradients to those at high redshift. We present examples of images and UBVR radial surface brightness and color profiles, and of the tables of measurements; the full atlas and tables are published in the electronic edition only.

description: We studied the temperature dependence of the diagonal double-stripe spin order in one and two unit cell thick layers of FeTe grown on the topological insulator Bi_2Te_3 via spin-polarized scanning tunneling microscopy. The spin order persists up to temperatures which are higher than the transition temperature reported for bulk Fe_1+yTe with lowest possible excess Fe content y. The enhanced spin order stability is assigned to a strongly decreased y with respect to the lowest values achievable in bulk crystal growth, and effects due to the interface between the FeTe and the topological insulator. The result is relevant for understanding the recent observation of a coexistence of superconducting correlations and spin order in this system.

description: We present a method of treating the interaction of a single three-level ion with two laser beams. The idea is to apply a unitary transformation such that the exact transformed Hamiltonian has one of the three levels decoupled for all values of the detunings. When one takes into account damping, the evolution of the system is governed by a master equation usually obtained via adiabatic approximation under the assumption of far-detuned lasers. To go around the drawbacks of this technique, we use the same unitary transformation to get an effective master equation.

Exploring the Foundations of the Minimal Self: A Theoretical Synthesis

Subjects: classificationCode: 520401
subject: Cognition

description: The minimal self has been defined as the pre-reflective sense of being a subject of experience (Gallagher, 2000). This thesis aimed to lay out a theoretical foundation which enables the progression of minimal self studies by identifying, organising, and synthesising existing and potential theoretical frameworks. In the first chapter, a scoping review identified mechanistic theories of minimal selfhood and categorised them according to their conceptual approach. Notably, this study highlighted the trend towards predictive theories of minimal selfhood and elucidated its definitional and conceptual variations. The second chapter introduced a way to refine minimal self theories and hypotheses, partly based on a neuropsychological approach to psychedelics and meditation. This approach was proposed to circumvent two major challenges within the minimal self literature. One challenge is caused by a conflation between self-related and self-specifying data. Another challenge is the difficulty in distinguishing between enabling conditions and core mechanisms within neuroimaging data. These issues hinder the endeavour of identifying the minimally necessary processes which generate minimal selfhood. To address these issues, this study proposed integrating knowledge on meditative non-dual awareness and psychedelic ego-dissolution as genuine minimal self disruptions. The common, context-independent neural changes found across both cases can guide more specific data analysis and the development of meaningful hypotheses. An application demonstrated this approach and provided three testable hypotheses. Taken together, both studies raised specific recommendations for the future design of experimental studies of minimal selfhood, and implications related to minimal self theory evaluation and refinement.

description: This output of the Erasmus Skills project is meant to support universities in the general integration of international/ intercultural knowledge, skills and attitudes in the curricula.

Erasmus Skills has been conceptualised in a period of time where European member states reached general consensus on the importance of learning mobility in their education systems. The core of “Erasmus Skills” was to ensure that students are more aware of the process they go through while going on exchange and the impact this has on their personal skills and development, and their place in society as active citizens.
