description: We consider the lowest order radiative corrections for the decay $K^{\pm}\to π^0 e^{\pm} ν$, usually referred as $K_{e3}^{\pm}$ decay. This decay is the best way to extract the value of the $V_{us}$ element of the CKM matrix. The radiative corrections become crucial if one wants a precise value of $V_{us}$. The existing calculations were performed in the late 60's \cite{B,G} and are in disagreement. The calculation in \cite{G} turns out to be ultraviolet cutoff sensitive. The necessity of precise knowledge of $V_{us}$ and the contradiction between the existing results constitute the motivation of our paper. We remove the ultraviolet cutoff dependence by using A.Sirlin's prescription; we set it equal to the $W$ mass. We establish the whole character of small lepton mass dependence based on the renormalization group approach. In this way we can provide a simple explanation of Kinoshita--Lee--Nauenberg cancellation of singularities in the lepton mass terms in the total width and pion spectrum. We give an explicit evaluation of the structure--dependent photon emission based on ChPT in the lowest order. We estimate the accuracy of our results to be at the level of 1%. The corrected total width is $Γ=Γ_0(1+δ)$ with $δ=0.02\pm0.0002$. Using the formfactor value $f_+(0)=0.9842\pm 0.0084$ calculated in \cite{CKNRT} leads to $|V_{us}|=0.2172 \pm0.0055$.

description: Deep learning techniques have become the method of choice for researchers working on algorithmic aspects of recommender systems. With the strongly increased interest in machine learning in general, it has, as a result, become difficult to keep track of what represents the state-of-the-art at the moment, e.g., for top-n recommendation tasks. At the same time, several recent publications point out problems in today's research practice in applied machine learning, e.g., in terms of the reproducibility of the results or the choice of the baselines when proposing new models. In this work, we report the results of a systematic analysis of algorithmic proposals for top-n recommendation tasks. Specifically, we considered 18 algorithms that were presented at top-level research conferences in the last years. Only 7 of them could be reproduced with reasonable effort. For these methods, it however turned out that 6 of them can often be outperformed with comparably simple heuristic methods, e.g., based on nearest-neighbor or graph-based techniques. The remaining one clearly outperformed the baselines but did not consistently outperform a well-tuned non-neural linear ranking method. Overall, our work sheds light on a number of potential problems in today's machine learning scholarship and calls for improved scientific practices in this area.

description: In the past decade, Bitcoin as an emerging asset class has gained widespread public attention because of their extraordinary returns in phases of extreme price growth and their unpredictable massive crashes. We apply the log-periodic power law singularity (LPPLS) confidence indicator as a diagnostic tool for identifying bubbles using the daily data on Bitcoin price in the past two years. We find that the LPPLS confidence indicator based on the daily Bitcoin price data fails to provide effective warnings for detecting the bubbles when the Bitcoin price suffers from a large fluctuation in a short time, especially for positive bubbles. In order to diagnose the existence of bubbles and accurately predict the bubble crashes in the cryptocurrency market, this study proposes an adaptive multilevel time series detection methodology based on the LPPLS model and finer (than daily) timescale for the Bitcoin price data. We adopt two levels of time series, 1 hour and 30 minutes, to demonstrate the adaptive multilevel time series detection methodology. The results show that the LPPLS confidence indicator based on this new method is an outstanding instrument to effectively detect the bubbles and accurately forecast the bubble crashes, even if a bubble exists in a short time. In addition, we discover that the short-term LPPLS confidence indicator highly sensitive to the extreme fluctuations of Bitcoin price can provide some useful insights into the bubble status on a shorter time scale - on a day to week scale, and the long-term LPPLS confidence indicator has a stable performance in terms of effectively monitoring the bubble status on a longer time scale - on a week to month scale. The adaptive multilevel time series detection methodology can provide real-time detection of bubbles and advanced forecast of crashes to warn of the imminent risk.

description: We present a calculation of the electroweak mixing parameter $\sin^2 θ_{eff}^{lept}$ that incorporates known higher order effects, shares the desirable convergence properties of the $\bar{MS}$ scheme, and has the important theoretical advantage of being strictly independent of the electroweak scale in finite orders of perturbation theory . We also show how this formulation can be extended to the calculation of the W mass $M_W$. The results provide accurate, scale-independent evaluations of these important parameters, as functions of the Higgs boson mass $M_H$, and are compared with previous calculations in order to analyze the scheme and scale dependence of the electroweak corrections.

description: In order to study the slope and strength of the non-stellar continuum, we analyzed a sample of nearby Narrow Line Seyfert 1 (NLS1). Also, we re-examined the location of NLS1 galaxies on the M $-$ $σ$ relation using the stellar velocity dispersion and the [OIII]$λ$5007 emission line as surrogate of the former. We studied spectra of a sample of 131 NLS1 galaxies taken from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) DR7. We approached determining the non-stellar continuum by employing the spectral synthesis technique, which uses the code {\sc starlight}, and by adopting a power-law base to model the non-stellar continuum. Composite spectra of NLS1 galaxies were also obtained based on the sample.In addition, we obtained the stellar velocity dispersion from the code and by measuring Calcium II Triplet absorption lines and [OIII] emission lines. From Gaussian decomposition of the H$β$ profile we calculated the black hole mass. We obtained a median slope of $β$ = $-$1.6 with a median fraction of contribution of the non-stellar continuum to the total flux of 0.64. We determined black hole masses in the range of log(M$_{BH}$/M$_{\odot}$) = 5.6 $-$ 7.5 which is in agreement with previous works. We found a correlation between the luminosity of the broad component of H$β$ and black hole mass with the fraction of a power-law component. Finally, according to our results, NLS1 galaxies in our sample are located mostly underneath the MBH - $σ_{\star}$ relation, both considering the stellar velocity dispersion ($σ_{\star}$) and the core component of [OIII]$λ$5007.

description: We present an IRAM 30m line survey of the dense core L483 in the 3 mm band. We detected 71 molecules (140 including different isotopologs), most of which are present in the cold and quiescent ambient cloud. Of particular interest among the detected molecules are the cis isomer of HCOOH, the complex organic molecules HCOOCH3, CH3OCH3, and C2H5OH, a wide variety of carbon chains, nitrogen oxides like N2O, and saturated molecules like CH3SH. In general, fractional molecular abundances in L483 are systematically lower than in TMC-1 (especially for carbon chains), tend to be higher than in L1544 and B1-b, and are similar to those in L1527. Apart from the overabundance of carbon chains in TMC-1, we find that L483 does not have a marked chemical differentiation with respect to starless/prestellar cores like TMC-1 and L1544, although it does chemically differentiate from Class 0 hot corino sources like IRAS 16293-2422. This fact suggests that the chemical composition of the ambient cloud of some Class 0 sources could be largely inherited from the dark cloud starless/prestellar phase. We also derived isotopic ratios for a variety of molecules, some of which show isotopic anomalies like an extreme depletion in 13C for one of the two isotopologs of c-C3H2, a drastic enrichment in 18O for SO and HNCO (SO being also largely enriched in 17O), and different abundances for the two 13C substituted species of C2H and the two 15N substituted species of N2H+. We report the first detection in space of some minor isotopologs like c-C3D. The exhaustive chemical characterization of L483 presented here, together with similar studies of other prestellar and protostellar sources, should allow us to identify the main factors that regulate the chemical composition of cores along the process of formation of low-mass protostars.

description: Purpose Drug efflux transporter associated multi-drug resistance (MDR) is a potential limitation in the use of taxane chemo-therapies for the treatment of metastatic melanoma. ABT-751 is an orally bioavailable microtubule-binding agent capable of overcoming MDR and proposed as an alternative to taxane-based therapies. Methods This study compares ABT-751 to taxanes in vitro, utilizing seven melanoma cell line models, publicly available gene expression and drug sensitivity databases, a lung cancer cell line model of MDR drug efux transporter overexpression (DLKP-A), and drug efux transporter ATPase assays. Results Melanoma cell lines exhibit a low but variable protein and RNA expression of drug efux transporters P-gp, BCRP, and MDR3. Expression of P-gp and MDR3 correlates with sensitivity to taxanes, but not to ABT-751. The anti-proliferative IC50 profle of ABT-751 was higher than the taxanes docetaxel and paclitaxel in the melanoma cell line panel, but fell within clinically achievable parameters. ABT-751 IC50 was not impacted by P-gp-overexpression in DKLP-A cells, which display strong resistance to the P-gp substrate taxanes compared to DLKP parental controls. The addition of ABT-751 to paclitaxel treatment signifcantly decreased cell proliferation, suggesting some reversal of MDR. ATPase activity assays suggest that ABT-751 is a potential BCRP substrate, with the ability to inhibit P-gp ATPase activity. Conclusion Our study confrms that ABT-751 is active against melanoma cell lines and models of MDR at physiologically relevant concentrations, it inhibits P-gp ATPase activity, and it may be a BCRP and/or MDR3 substrate. ABT-751 warrants further investigation alone or in tandem with other drug efux transporter inhibitors for hard-to-treat MDR melanoma.

Testing the rotation versus merger scenario in the galaxy cluster Abell 2107

description: We search for global rotation of the intracluster medium (ICM) in the galaxy cluster Abell 2107, where previous studies have detected rotational motion in the member galaxies with a high significance level. By fitting the centroid of the iron $K_α$ line complex at 6.7--6.9 keV rest frame in {\sl Chandra} ACIS-I spectra, we identify the possible rotation axis with the line that maximizes the difference between the emission-weighted spectroscopic redshift measured in the two halves defined by the line itself. Then, we measure the emission-weighted redshift in linear regions parallel to the preferred rotation axis, and find a significant gradient as a function of the projected distance from the rotation axis, compatible with a rotation pattern with maximum tangential velocity ${\tt v}_{\rm max}=1380\pm 600$ km/s at a radius $λ_0\sim 160$ kpc. This result, if interpreted in the framework of hydrostatic equilibrium, as suggested by the regular morphology of Abell 2107, would imply a large mass correction of the order of $ΔM = (6 \pm 4)\times 10^{13} M_\odot$ at $\sim 160$ kpc, which is incompatible with the cluster morphology itself. A more conservative interpretation may be provided by an unnoticed off-center, head-on collision between two comparable halos. Our analysis confirms the peculiar dynamical nature of the otherwise regular cluster Abell 2107, but is not able to resolve the rotation vs merger scenario, a science case that can be addressed by the next-generation X-ray facilities carrying X-ray bolometers onboard.

description: Our submission to the Welsh Parliament Health and Social Care Committee's inquiry into supporting people with chronic conditions particularly covers the following broad areas - Multiple conditions (The ability of NHS and social care providers to respond to individuals with multimorbidity) and Prevention and lifestyle (Action to improve prevention and early intervention). We provide evidence and recommendations in relation to the prevention of burdensome multiple long-term conditions among people of working age. This issue is of great importance because early onset multiple long-term conditions are common, increasing and significantly impact people's quality of life and ability to work. In turn this impacts the economy, placing enormous pressure on health and care systems and impacting unequally across society. We recommend that the Committee focus its attention on finding public health approaches to prevent burdensome multiple long-term conditions The MELD-B study aims to increase understanding of the most effective ways to do this and, therefore, can support the Committee's future work in this area.

description: Brain-related disorders are leading global health problems. Various internal and external factors are involved in the progression of brain-related disorders. Inflammatory pathways, oxidative stresses, apoptosis, and deregulations of various channels are critical players in brain-related disorder pathogenesis. Among these players, aquaporins (AQP) have critical roles in various physiological and pathological conditions. AQPs are water channel molecules that permit water to cross the hydrophobic lipid bilayers of cellular membranes. AQP4 is one of the important members of AQP family. AQPs are involved in controlling apoptosis pathways in brain-related disorders. In this regard, several reports have evaluated the pathological effects of AQP4 by targeting the apoptosis-related processes in brain-related disorders. Here, for the first time, we highlight the impact of AQP4 on apoptosis-related processes in brain-related disorders.

description: Our current study demonstrated that BMMSC-Exos could accelerate the proliferation and migration of endothelial cells and osteoblast cells, further promoting angiogenesis and osteogenesis to enhance fracture healing. As an intercellular communicator, exosomes can activate the HIF-1ɑ/VEGF and the BMP-2/Smad1/RUNX2 signalling pathways, and this may be one of the underlying mechanisms in the fracture healing process. The data presented here provide the first evidence for the potential of BMMSC-Exos in treating nonunion. Our findings suggest that BMMSC-Exos may be a prospective therapeutic approach in the treatment of nonunion.

description: The non-linear evolution of a stratified perturbation in a three dimensional expanding Universe is considered. A general Lagrangian scheme (Q model) is introduced and numerical investigations are performed. The asymptotic contraction of the core of the agglomeration is studied. A power-law scaling is detected and an heuristic interpretation of the numerical findings is provided. An asymptotic equation for the multi-stream velocity flow is derived and it is shown to agree quantitatively with the dynamics of the Q model. The relation to the adhesion model is discussed.

description: A visit to any major bookstore reveals a group of books that fit within the genre entitled ‘Popular Science’. On these shelves, a diverse collection of texts can be found, on topics as varied as evolution, space travel, astronomy, biography and science history. Defined here as ‘books about science which do not require a specialist knowledge in the subject of the book in order to be read, enjoyed and understood’, popular science books are a significant science communication medium. Despite this, and the apparent recent increase in the popularity of these books, little critical evaluation of the genre exists. A reason given for this is that the popular science book genre is very diverse, making analysis difficult. In this thesis, two avenues of research were undertaken to begin to aid this situation. First, a study was carried out to identify and characterise the sub-genres that exist within the popular science book genre. This revealed that the genre can be divided into 12 distinct categories, each with unique defining features. A ‘diagram of relationships’ for the categories within the genre was also developed. Following this, the features of a group of bestsellers in one of the identified categories, ‘Stories of Scientific Endeavours or Events’, was investigated. From this, a list of common characteristics of successful popular science books was compiled for this category. The results of both lines of research were then applied and exemplified in the production of an ‘artifact of science communication’ - a new, full-length popular science book on ancient DNA research: Hunting the Double Helix: How DNA is solving puzzles of the past (published by Allen & Unwin in 2005).

description: The main carrier of sulfur in dense clouds, where it is depleted from the gas phase, remains a mystery. Shock waves in young molecular outflows disrupt the ice mantles and allow us to directly probe the material that is ejected into the gas phase. A comprehensive study of sulfur-bearing species towards L1157-B1, a shocked region along a protostellar outflow, has been carried out as part of the IRAM-30m large program ASAI. The dataset contains over 100 lines of CCS, H$_2$CS, OCS, SO, SO$_2$ and isotopologues. The results of these observations are presented, complementing previous studies of sulfur-bearing species in the region. The column densities and fractional abundances of these species are measured and together these species account for 10\% of the cosmic sulfur abundance in the region. The gas properties derived from the observations are also presented, demonstrating that sulfur bearing species trace a wide range of different gas conditions in the region.

Love Don't Need a Reason: The Life & Music of Michael Callen
Creators: name: Jones, Matthew J.
Publisher: name: punctum books

description: From a stage erected in front of the US Capitol, on April 25, 1993, Michael Callen surveyed the throng: an estimated one million people stretched across the National Mall in the largest public demonstration of queer political solidarity in history. “What a sight,” he told the crowd, his earnest Midwestern twang reverberating through loudspeakers. “You’re a sight for sore eyes. Being gay is the greatest gift I have ever been given, and I don’t care who knows about it.” He then launched into a gorgeous rendition of “Love Don’t Need a Reason,” the AIDS anthem he composed with Marsha Malamet and the late Peter Allen. As Callen finished singing, people stood cheering and flashing the familiar American Sign Language symbol for “I Love You.” For they knew the song’s sentiment rang true for Callen, who had recently announced his retirement from music and activism after a living for more than a decade with what was then called “full-blown AIDS.” After the March on Washington, Callen returned to his recently adopted West Coast home, Los Angeles. In the ensuing months, his health rapidly declined, and on 27 December 1993, Callen died of AIDS-related pulmonary Kaposi’s sarcoma. Love Don’t Need a Reason focuses on Callen’s most important and lasting legacy: his music. A witness to the overlooked last years of Gay Liberation and a major figure in the early years of the AIDS crisis, Michael Callen chronicled these experiences in song. A community organizer, activist, author, and architect of the AIDS self-empowerment movement, he literally changed the way we have sex in an epidemic when he co-authored one of the first safe-sex guides in 1983. A gifted singer, songwriter, and performer, he also made gay music for gay people and used music to educate and empower people with AIDS. Listening again to his music allows us to hear the shifting dynamics of American families, changing notions of masculinity, gay migration to urban areas, the sexual politics of Gay Liberation, and HIV/AIDS activism. Using extensive archival materials and newly-conducted oral history interviews with Callen’s friends, family, and fellow musicians, Matthew J. Jones reintroduces Callen to the history of LGBTQIA+ music and places Callen’s music at the center of his important activist work.

description: In this paper we study the Yukawa Higgs-quark-quark interactions that are generated from radiative corrections of squarks and gluinos, in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model. We compute the corrections to the effective action for Higgs and quark fields that are produced by explicit integration, in the path integral formalism, of all the squarks and gluinos, at the one-loop level and order $α_s$. In addition, we consider the limit of nearly degenerate heavy squarks and gluinos, with masses much larger than the electroweak scale, and derive the effective Lagrangian containing all the relevant new local Higgs-quark-quark interactions. We show that these new interactions do remain non-vanishing, even in the case of infinitely heavy supersymmetric particles and, therefore, we demonstrate explicitly the non-decoupling behavior of squarks and gluinos in Higgs bosons physics. We present the set of new Yukawa couplings and finally derive the corresponding one-loop, order $α_s$, corrections to the Higgs bosons partial decay widths into quarks.

Ground and excited scalar isoscalar meson states in a U(3)xU(3) quark model with a glueball

description: Ground and first radially excited scalar isoscalar meson states and a scalar glueball are described in a nonlocal U(3)xU(3) quark model. The glueball is introduced into the effective meson Lagrangian by means of the dilaton model on the base of the scale invariance of the meson Lagrangian. The scale invariance breaking by current quark masses and gluon anomalies is taken into account. The glueball anomalies turn out to be important for the description of the glueball-quarkonia mixing. The masses of five scalar isoscalar meson states and their strong decay widths are calculated. The state f_0(1500) is shown to be composed mostly of the scalar glueball.

description: The Reduced Relativistic Gas (RRG) is a simplified version of the ideal relativistic gas, which assumes that all particles have the same momentum magnitude. Although this is a very idealized situation, the resulting model preserves the phenomenology of Maxwell-Boltzmann distribution and, in some situations, can be described as a perfect fluid, without introducing large errors in both cosmological background and first-order perturbations. The perfect fluid description of RRG model was already used to study the warmness of dark matter, massive neutrinos and interaction of baryons and photons before recombination, showing very good agreement with previous works based on the full Einstein-Boltzmann system of equations. In order to understand these results and construct a more general and formal framework for RRG, we develop a theoretical description of first-order cosmological perturbations of RRG, based on a distribution function which encodes the simplifying assumption that all particles have the same momentum magnitude. The full set of Einstein-Boltzmann equations for RRG distribution are derived and quantities beyond the perfect fluid approximation are studied. Using RRG to describe warm dark matter, we show that, for particles with $m \sim \text{keV}$, the perfect fluid approximation is valid on scales $k < 10\, \text{h}/\text{Mpc}$, for most of the universe evolution. We also determine initial conditions for RRG in the early universe and study the evolution of potential in a toy model of universe composed only by RRG.

description: Measuring Venus' atmospheric circulation at different altitudes is important for understanding its complex dynamics, in particular the mechanisms driving the super-rotation. Observationally, Doppler imaging spectroscopy is in principle be the most reliable way to measure wind speeds of planetary atmospheres because it directly provides the projected speed of atmospheric particles. However, high-resolution imaging-spectroscopy is challenging, especially in the visible domain, and most of the knowledge about atmospheric dynamics has been obtained with cloud-tracking technique. The objective of the present work is to measure the global properties of Venus' atmospheric dynamics at the altitude of the uppermost clouds, which is probed by reflected solar lines in the visible domain. Our results are based on high-resolution spectroscopic observations with the long slit spectrometer of the solar telescope THEMIS. We present the first instantaneous "radial-velocity snapshot" of any planet of the solar system in the visible domain, i.e., a complete RV map of the planet obtained by stacking data on less than 10% of its rotation period. From this, we measure the properties of the zonal and meridional winds, which we unambiguously detect. We identify a wind circulation pattern that significantly differs from previous knowledge about Venus. The zonal wind displays a "hot spot" structure, featuring about 200 m/s at sunrise and 70 m/s at noon in the equatorial region. Regarding meridional winds, we detect an equator-to-pole meridional flow peaking at 45 m/s at mid latitudes, i.e., which is about twice as large as what was reported so far.
