description: Abstract: "This report describes the functionality of the Architectural Agent (A2) developed by a team at CMU as part of the USACERL- sponsored ACL (Investigation of an Agent Communication Language) project, which addresses communication issues in a distributed computer-supported building design environment. The core functionality of A2 consists of generating schematic layouts of the functional units in a spatial program; this functionality is provided by using SEED-Layout (SL) as a server; SL is a module in the Software Environment to Support the Early Phases in Building Design (SEED) currently under development at the EDRC. A2 is in addition served by the object database UniSQL and AutoCAD, used strictly for display purposes. These diverse components communicate through a message server with each other and a facilitator API provided by another team. The communication protocol and data translations are based on an active object model expressed in the specification language OML developed by the CMU team explicitly for the ACL project. The CMU team also suggests an approach toward conflict management and negotiation for an environment like ACL and describes an OML-based protocol that implements the approach. It offers general conclusions about relevant aspects of the ACL project."

description: Open sourcing modelling tools and generators becomes more and more important as open source software as a whole becomes more important. We evaluate the impact open source licenses of code generators have on the intellectual property (IP) of generated artifacts comparing the most common open source licenses by categories found in literature. Restrictively licensed generators do have effects on the IP and therefore on the usability of the artifacts they produce. We then how how this effects can be shaped to the needs of the licensor and the licensee.

Development of a multi-ring sample at the T2K far detector
Creators: name: Towstego, Trevor
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: The T2K experiment studies neutrino oscillations by measuring $\nu_e$ appearance and $\nu_\mu$ disappearance from a $\nu_\mu$ beam. This is done by observing neutrino events at a near detector situated 280 metres from the beam production target, and at a far detector situated 295 km from the beam production target. Super-Kamiokande, a large water Cherenkov detector, acts as the far detector, where charged products of neutrino interactions on water are observed as rings of light. Neutrino oscillation analyses at T2K currently use single-ring events at the far detector. By introducing multi-ring events into the oscillation analysis, statistics can be significantly increased. This study explores a 2-ring $\nu_e$ CC1$\pi^+$ sample, where an $e$-like ring and a $\pi^+$-like ring are produced. The event selection was developed using boosted decision trees. Preliminary results suggest a potential 12% increase in $\nu_e$ appearance statistics.

Persistent Identifier

description: Einführung in die Session "Persistent Identifier für FAIRe Forschungsdaten " auf der RDA DE Tagung 2023. Die Session widmet sich der zentralen Rolle von „Persistent Identifier“ (PID) für das FAIRmachen von wissenschaftlichen Daten, indem sie die Zitierbarkeit und Referenzierbarkeit der wissenschaftlichen Ressourcen sicherstellen. Um aber einen echten Mehrwert in den sich entwickelnden e-Infrastrukturen, wie der European Open Science Cloud (EOSC) oder der Nationalen Forschungsdateninfrastruktur (NFDI), zu schaffen, ist es essentiell, verschiedene Identifikatoren miteinander zu verknüpfen und somit in Verbindung zu setzen. In der Session werden PIDs aus der Perspektive verschiedener datengetriebener Fachdisziplinen betrachtet und aufgezeigt, wie diese im Zusammenspiel zu einem effektiveren und offeneren Informationsaustausch innerhalb der Wissenschaft beitragen können. Zudem werden aktuelle nationale und internationale Bestrebungen beschrieben, um eine vernetzte PID-Landschaft zu schaffen und Einrichtungen einen Rahmen für lokale PID-Anwendungen zu geben.

description: We compare the isotropic equivalent 15-2000 keV gamma-ray energy, E_gamma, emitted by a sample of 91 swift Gamma-Ray Bursts (GRBs) with known redshifts, with the isotropic equivalent fireball energy, E_fb, as estimated within the fireball model framework from X-ray afterglow observations of these bursts. The uncertainty in E_gamma, which spans the range of ~10^51 erg to ~10^53.5 erg, is approximately 25% on average, due mainly to the extrapolation from the BAT detector band to the 15-2000 keV band. The uncertainty in E_fb is approximately a factor of 2, due mainly to the X-ray measurements' scatter. We find E_gamma and E_fb to be tightly correlated. The average(std) of η^11hr_gamma is approximately log_10(E_gamma/(3ε _eE^11hr_fb)) are -0.34(0.60), and the upper limit on the intrinsic spread of η_gamma is approximately 0.5 (ε_e is the fraction of shocked plasma energy carried by electrons and E^x hr_fb is inferred from the X-ray flux at x hours). We also find that E_fb inferred from X-ray observations at 3 and 11 hours are similar, with an average(std) of log_10(E^3hr_fb/E^11hr_fb) of 0.04(0.28). The small variance of η_gamma implies that burst-to-burst variations in ε_e and in the efficiency of fireball energy conversion to gamma-rays are small, and suggests that both are of order unity. The small variance of η_gamma and the similarity of E^3hr_fb and E^11hr_fb further imply that ε_e does not vary significantly with shock Lorentz factor, and that for most bursts the modification of fireball energy during the afterglow phase, by processes such as radiative losses or extended duration energy injection, are not significant. Finally, our results imply that if fireballs are indeed jets, then the jet opening angle satisfies θ>0.1 for most cases. [abridged]

description: We present deep ($>$2.4 Ms) observations of the Cassiopeia A supernova remnant with {\it NuSTAR}, which operates in the 3--79 keV bandpass and is the first instrument capable of spatially resolving the remnant above 15 keV. We find that the emission is not entirely dominated by the forward shock nor by a smooth "bright ring" at the reverse shock. Instead we find that the $>$15 keV emission is dominated by knots near the center of the remnant and dimmer filaments near the remnant's outer rim. These regions are fit with unbroken power-laws in the 15--50 keV bandpass, though the central knots have a steeper ($Γ\sim -3.35$) spectrum than the outer filaments ($Γ\sim -3.06$). We argue this difference implies that the central knots are located in the 3-D interior of the remnant rather than at the outer rim of the remnant and seen in the center due to projection effects. The morphology of $>$15 keV emission does not follow that of the radio emission nor that of the low energy ($$15 keV emission as an open mystery. Even at the forward shock front we find less steepening of the spectrum than expected from an exponentially cut off electron distribution with a single cutoff energy. Finally, we find that the GeV emission is not associated with the bright features in the {\it NuSTAR} band while the TeV emission may be, suggesting that both hadronic and leptonic emission mechanisms may be at work.

description: We derive a microscopic model for dissipative dynamics in a system of mutually interacting qubits coupled to a thermal bath that generalises the dissipative model of Landau-Lifschitz-Gilbert to the case of anisotropic bath couplings. We show that the dissipation acts to bias the quantum trajectories towards a reduced phase space. This model applies to a system of superconducting flux qubits whose coupling to the environment is necessarily anisotropic. We study the model in the context of the D-Wave computing device and show that the form of environmental coupling in this case produces dynamics that are closely related to several models proposed on phenomenological grounds.

description: A long spin relaxation time (tausf) is the key for the applications of graphene to spintronics but the experimental values of tausf have been generally much shorter than expected. We show that the usual determination by the Hanle method underestimates tausf if proper account of the spin absorption by contacts is lacking. By revisiting series of experimental results, we find that the corrected tausf are longer and less dispersed, which leads to a more unified picture of tausf derived from experiments. We also discuss how the correction depends on the parameters of the graphene and contacts.

description: The forecast of technology changes is one of the most important assumptions in most long-term energy, economic models. This project seeks to improve the ability of integrated assessment models (IA) to incorporate changes in technology, especially environmental technologies, cost and performance over time. In this reports, we presents results of research that examines past experience in controlling other major power plant emissions that might serve as a reasonable guide to future rates of technological progress in carbon capture and sequestration (CCS) systems. In particular, we focus on U.S. and worldwide experience with sulfur dioxide (SO2) and nitrogen oxide (NOx) control technologies over the past 30 years, and derive empirical learning rates for these technologies. The patterns of technology innovation are captured by our analysis of patent activities and trends of cost reduction over time. Overall, we found learning rates of 11% for the capital costs of flue gas desulphurization (FGD) system for SO2 control, and 13% for selective catalytic reduction (SCR) systems for NOx control. We explore the key factors responsible for the observed trends, especially the development of regulatory policies for SO2 and NOx control, and their implications for environmental control technology innovation.
On the Structure, Covering, and Learning of Poisson Multinomial Distributions

description: An $(n,k)$-Poisson Multinomial Distribution (PMD) is the distribution of the sum of $n$ independent random vectors supported on the set ${\cal B}_k=\{e_1,\ldots,e_k\}$ of standard basis vectors in $\mathbb{R}^k$. We prove a structural characterization of these distributions, showing that, for all $\varepsilon >0$, any $(n, k)$-Poisson multinomial random vector is $\varepsilon$-close, in total variation distance, to the sum of a discretized multidimensional Gaussian and an independent $(\text{poly}(k/\varepsilon), k)$-Poisson multinomial random vector. Our structural characterization extends the multi-dimensional CLT of Valiant and Valiant, by simultaneously applying to all approximation requirements $\varepsilon$. In particular, it overcomes factors depending on $\log n$ and, importantly, the minimum eigenvalue of the PMD's covariance matrix from the distance to a multidimensional Gaussian random variable. We use our structural characterization to obtain an $\varepsilon$-cover, in total variation distance, of the set of all $(n, k)$-PMDs, significantly improving the cover size of Daskalakis and Papadimitriou, and obtaining the same qualitative dependence of the cover size on $n$ and $\varepsilon$ as the $k=2$ cover of Daskalakis and Papadimitriou. We further exploit this structure to show that $(n,k)$-PMDs can be learned to within $\varepsilon$ in total variation distance from $\tilde{O}_k(1/\varepsilon^2)$ samples, which is near-optimal in terms of dependence on $\varepsilon$ and independent of $n$. In particular, our result generalizes the single-dimensional result of Daskalakis, Diakonikolas, and Servedio for Poisson Binomials to arbitrary dimension.

description: As the most energetic eruptions in the solar system, coronal mass ejections (CMEs) can produce shock waves at both their front and flanks as they erupt from the Sun into the heliosphere. However, the amount of energy produced in these eruptions, and the proportion of their energy required to produce the waves, is not well characterised. Here we use observations of a solar eruption from 2014 February 25 to estimate the energy budget of an erupting CME and the globally-propagating "EIT wave" produced by the rapid expansion of the CME flanks in the low solar corona. The "EIT wave" is shown using a combination of radio spectra and extreme ultraviolet images to be a shock front with a Mach number greater than one. Its initial energy is then calculated using the Sedov-Taylor blast-wave approximation, which provides an approximation for a shock front propagating through a region of variable density. This approach provides an initial energy estimate of $\approx$2.8$\times$10$^{31}$ ergs to produce the "EIT wave", which is approximately 10% the kinetic energy of the associated CME (shown to be $\approx$2.5$\times$10$^{32}$ ergs). These results indicate that the energy of the "EIT wave" may be significant and must be considered when estimating the total energy budget of solar eruptions.

New Results of the MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR's for Double-Beta Decay of $^{76}$Ge to Excited States of $^{76}$Se
Creators: name: Guinn, Ian
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: The MAJORANA DEMONSTRATOR (MJD) is a low-background experiment searching for $\beta\beta$-decay of $^{76}$Ge to ground and excited states (ES) in $^{76}$Se using a modular array of high purity germanium detectors. The experiment consists of two modules with 29 detectors each, consisting of 44.8 kg of germanium detectors (29.7 kg enriched to 88% in $^{76}$Ge). ES decays produce a $\beta\beta$ with the prompt emission of one or two γs, often producing multisite events. The granularity of the MJD detector array enables powerful discrimination of ES events from backgrounds. for neutrinoless and two-neutrino $\beta\beta$s to three different ES, MJD has set world leading half-life limits ranging from $(5-21)\cdot10^{23}$ y (90% CL), using 21 kg-y isotopic exposure. This poster will present analysis techniques and an improved result including previously blinded data with $\sim42$ kg-y exposure.

Data-Driven Wrong-Sign Background Estimates of the NuMI Beam using the NOvA Near Detector
Creators: name: Abhilash Yallappa Dombara
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: NOvA is a long-baseline neutrino experiment with two functionally identical liquid scintillator detectors 809 km apart,14.6 mrad off-axis from the NuMI beam. The primary physics goals of this experiment are to probe the matter hierarchy and elements of the PMNS mixing matrix, including CP violation and the atmospheric mixing parameters . To measure these parameters precisely we need to have an accurate estimate of the neutrino and antineutrino composition in our beam. There are two modes of beam operation: Forward Horn Current (FHC) , neutrino dominant mode and Reverse Horn Current (RHC) , antineutrino dominant mode. The RHC beam has comparatively higher contamination from neutrinos. In NOvA we use several techniques to identify neutrinos and antineutrinos and employ various data-driven methods to estimate this contamination. A summary of our approaches to determine wrong sign contamination in RHC will be presented

description: Thousands of papers and comments have been written about what Open Internet policies would best serve the public interest, and thousands more have been written about whether better Open Internet policies could be supported by calling Internet access a telecommunications service under Title II of the Communications Act or an information service. Even the authors of this comment have written about these topics.123 However, this particular comment will address neither of these topics. Instead, it will consider only whether or not commercial Internet access is or is not a telecommunications service under current law. Although many issues are delegated to the FCC as an expert agency, the FCC is still required to follow the laws passed by Congress and signed by the President, and the FCC’s discretion has bounds. In this matter, we find that the Communications Act of 1934 as modified by the Telecommunications Act requires the FCC to define commercial Internet access as a telecommunications service. Opinions will differ as to whether this is a good or bad result for the future of the Internet, but this question is outside the scope of this comment.

description: Data and software are the foundation for a vast variety and volume of scientific research. Computational research is used in most scientific disciplines to make sense of small or large datasets using everything from one-off scripts to high-performance computing infrastructures. At some point, all these works are presented to a scientific community and in the current academic reality, the publication of a research paper is still a crucial step for the recognition of research outputs and career advancement. While research papers are increasingly accompanied by data and software to ensure transparency, reproducibility, and reusability, the inspection of these building blocks is not a common part of the publication and peer review process. The CODECHECK initiative (https://codecheck.org.uk/) tries to make code execution standard practice in peer review. In this work, we present the CODECHECK principles and implementation options. We highlight the particular possibilities for research software engineers to participate in academic peer review as codecheckers and how good scientific and development practices can be spread, encouraged, and potentially enforced through codechecking.

As is well-known, every compact surface of genus $g\geqslant 2$ decomposes into pairs of pants, and it is now natural to investigate this construction in dimension 4. Which smooth closed 4-manifolds decompose into pairs of pants? We address this problem here and construct many examples: we prove in particular that every finitely presented group is the fundamental group of a 4-manifold that decomposes into pairs of pants.

description: Accretion and ejection are tightly connected and represent the fundamental mechanisms regulating star formation. However, the exact physical processes involved are not yet fully understood. We present high angular and spectral resolution observations of the Br Gamma emitting region in the Herbig Ae star HD163296 (MWC275) in order to probe the origin of this line and constrain the physical processes taking place at sub-AU scales in the circumstellar region. By means of VLTI-AMBER observations at high spectral resolution (R~12000), we studied interferometric visibilities, wavelength-differential phases, and closure phases across the Br Gamma line of HD163296. To constrain the physical origin of the Br Gamma line in Herbig Ae stars, all the interferometric observables were compared with the predictions of a line radiative transfer disc wind model. The measured visibilities clearly increase within the Br Gamma line, indicating that the Br Gamma emitting region is more compact than the continuum. By fitting a geometric Gaussian model to the continuum-corrected Br Gamma visibilities, we derived a compact radius of the Br Gamma emitting region of ~0.07+/-0.02AU (Gaussian half width at half maximum; or a ring-fit radius of ~0.08+/-0.02AU). To interpret the observations, we developed a magneto-centrifugally driven disc wind model. Our best disc wind model is able to reproduce, within the errors, all the interferometric observables and it predicts a launching region with an outer radius of ~0.04AU. However, the intensity distribution of the entire disc wind emitting region extends up to ~0.16AU. Our observations, along with a detailed modelling of the Br Gamma emitting region, suggest that most of the Br Gamma emission in HD163296 originates from a disc wind with a launching region that is over five times more compact than previous estimates of the continuum dust rim radius.

description: We study how the stability of the fractional quantum Hall effect (FQHE) is influenced by the geometry of band structure in lattice Chern insulators. We consider the Hofstadter model, which converges to continuum Landau levels in the limit of small flux per plaquette. This gives us a degree of analytic control not possible in generic lattice models, and we are able to obtain analytic expressions for the relevant geometric criteria. These may be differentiated by whether they converge exponentially or polynomially to the continuum limit. We demonstrate that the latter criteria have a dominant effect on the physics of interacting particles in Hofstadter bands in this low flux density regime. In particular, we show that the many-body gap depends monotonically on a band-geometric criterion related to the trace of the Fubini-Study metric.

Accelerating Calculation of Confidence Intervals for NOvA's Neutrino Oscillation Parameter Estimation with Supercomputers
Creators: name: Tarak Thakore

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: NOvA is a world-leading long-baseline neutrino oscillation experiment. Probes of neutrino and antineutrino oscillations in the NuMI beam enable precise measurements of the atmospheric oscillation parameters, determination of the mass ordering, and constraints for the CP-violating phase. Additionally, NOvA is probing sterile neutrino mixing and setting stringent constraints on sterile model parameters. Constructing statistically correct confidence intervals is challenging. NOvA follows the computationally-expensive Feldman-Cousins (FC) prescription to ensure correct statistical coverage with test-statistics distributions constructed empirically, requiring generation and fitting of $\mathcal{O} (10^{6})$ pseudo-experiments. In this poster, we present techniques and tools developed by the NOvA and the DOE SciDAC-4 "HEP Data Analytics on HPC" collaborations to leverage the power of supercomputers to determine NOvA's FC-constructed confidence intervals. This new framework reduces the time necessary to produce statistically robust results from several months down to a few days.

description: In this note, we investigate possible relationships between the bivariate Hurst exponent $H_{xy}$ and an average of the separate Hurst exponents $\frac{1}{2}(H_x+H_y)$. We show that two cases are well theoretically founded. These are the cases when $H_{xy}=\frac{1}{2}(H_x+H_y)$ and $H_{xy}\frac{1}{2}(H_x+H_y)$ is not possible regardless of stationarity issues. Further discussion of the implications is provided as well together with a note on the finite sample effect.

Search for Astrophysical Neutrino Transients with IceCube DeepCore
Creators: name: Chujie Chen
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: DeepCore is a part of IceCube that enhances IceCube's sensitivity in the low energy range enabling the search for astrophysical transient sources, e.g., choked gamma-ray bursts (GRBs). We present sensitivities to transient timescales between 100 seconds and 1 week in an energy range from 10 to 200 GeV. A dataset that is obtained from a newly developed low energy event selection is used in our analysis. We show that the DeepCore can be reliably used to search for transients between a declination range from -30° and +30°

description: The results of the electronic structure calculations performed on SmN by using the LDA+U method with and without including the spin-orbit coupling are presented. Within the LDA+U approach, a N(2$p$) band polarization of $\simeq 0.3\ μ_B$ is induced by Sm(4$f$)-N(2$p$) hybridization, and a half-metallic ground state is obtained. By including spin-orbit coupling the magnetic structure was shown to be antiferromagnetic of type II, with Sm spin and orbital moments nearly cancelling. This results into a semiconducting ground state, which is in agreement with experimental results.

Understanding Radical Technology Innovation and its Application to CO2 Capture R&D: Interim Report, Volume One—Literature Review

description: In recent years there has been growing interest in pursuing “radical” innovations in energy
and environmental technologies to ameliorate the problems of global climate change and to ensure
a more sustainable energy future. In the public realm, R&D managers and policymakers have
proposed a range of new programs, funds and government agencies to pursue this idea. This
report reviews the published literature on radical innovation to establish a baseline of current
understanding of this concept and means of achieving such goals. The results of this review
indicate that there has been little research directed toward understanding how a public R&D
program could systematically achieve radical or breakthrough technologies, and that defining
radical innovation remains challenging and elusive. This review also finds that radical innovation
in large technological systems such as electricity supply is difficult to achieve; that it often requires
clusters of complementary innovations; and that it tends to occur over long periods of time—often
on the order of 6-8 decades. Success also often depends upon significant and sustained
government policy support. The literature further indicates that little if any research on radical
innovation has specifically addressed environmental control technologies for fossil-energy systems.
In this context, further research is needed to more fully characterize what types of changes are
implied by terms such as “radical,” “breakthrough” or “revolutionary” when applied to innovations
in fossil energy environmental control technologies.

description: Products of the fusion-evaporation reaction Ca-48 + Am-243 were studied with the TASISpec set-up at the gas-filled separator TASCA at the GSI Helmholtzzentrum für Schwerionenforschung. Amongst the detected thirty correlated alpha-decay chains associated with the production of element Z=115, two recoil-alpha-fission and five recoil-alpha-alpha-fission events were observed. The latter are similar to four such events reported from experiments performed at the Dubna gas-filled separator. Contrary to their interpretation, we propose an alternative view, namely to assign eight of these eleven decay chains of recoil-alpha(-alpha)-fission type to start from the 3n-evaporation channel 115-288. The other three decay chains remain viable candidates for the 2n-evaporation channel 115-289.

Sensitivity of the DARWIN observatory to the neutrinoless double beta decay of 136-Xe
Creators: name: Biondi, Yanina
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: DARWIN will be a direct dark matter detection experiment using a multi-ton liquid xenon time projection chamber at its core. With 50 tonnes of natural xenon, DARWIN will be designed to explore the entire experimentally accessible parameter space for WIMPs. In addition, profiting from state-of-the-art techniques, DARWIN will achieve unprecedented levels of background, therefore creating the opportunity to observe other rare interactions. One ambitious goal is the search for the neutrinoless double-beta decay of 136-Xe which has an abundance of 8.9% on natural xenon. We present the expected half-life sensitivity of DARWIN to this rare nuclear decay process. The study is based on detailed Monte Carlo simulations of the backgrounds from detector materials, sources intrinsic to the xenon, as well as solar neutrinos. We show that DARWIN will be comparable to dedicated double beta decay experiments using enriched 136-Xe.

description: Abstract
Breast cancer in young woman is increasing. The objective of this work was to analyze the imaging characteristics of breast cancer in young woman under 35 years, determinate the sensitivity and the specificity of each imaging means and evaluate epidemiological, clinical, pathological and therapeutic characteristics of breast cancer in this slice of age. Through a retrospective study spread over 3 years from January 2015 to December 2017 and held at the medical imaging services of Pierre and Marie Curie of Algiers, we identified 204 cases of breast cancer in patients aged under 35 years.. In mammography the distribution of cases revealed that half (53.9%) was classified BIRADS 5,35.3 % of the cases classified BIRADS 4, 7.2 % classified BIRADS 3 and a small percentage (3.6%) in BIRADS 0. The sensitivity of mammography in young women in our series was 89.4%. For the ultrasound, the distribution of cases according to the BIRADS stages reveals that more than half was closed ACR5, representing 64%, 32.7% ranked in ACR4 and 3.3% in ACR3. The sensitivity of this test was 96.7%. In pathological terms it was a carcinoma infiltrating non-specific type in 91% of cases, with predominance of SBR II and III ranks 90.6 %. 204 patients received surgery, radical in 63% and 37% conservative. 61% of patients received adjuvant chemotherapy, and 39% of patients received neoadjuvant chemotherapy. 204 had a locoregional irradiation. study joins the data in the literature advocating more advanced forms and worse prognosis of breast cancer in young patients on the one hand, and secondly to a classic radiological appearance of the breast with a mass irregular.

description: The bound state solution of the radial Schrödinger equation with the generalized Woods-Saxon potential is carefully examined by using the Pekeris approximation for arbitrary $\ell$ states. The energy eigenvalues and the corresponding eigenfunctions are analytically obtained for different $n$ and $\ell$ quantum numbers. The obtained closed forms are applied to calculate the single particle energy levels of neutron orbiting around $^{56}$Fe nucleus in order to check consistency between the analytical and Gamow code results. The analytical results are in good agreement with the results obtained by Gamow code for $\ell=0$.

description: A series of novel pyrimido[4,5-c]isoquinolines (3a–3h) and 1,2,3-triazole-coupled pyrimido[4,5-c]isoquinolines (4a–4h) were synthesized in good to excellent yields in the one-pot method. The reaction of 6-amino-1,3-dimethyluracil with different 2-iodo benzoyl chlorides using Pd catalyst in dimethylformamide afforded corresponding pyrimido[4,5-c]isoquinolines (3a–3h). One-pot reaction of pyrimido[4,5-c]isoquinolines with propargyl bromide and benzyl azide in THF at room temperature furnished 1,2,3-triazole-coupled pyrimido[4,5-c]isoquinoline (4a–4h). In vitro antioxidant activity examination revealed that compounds 4d and 4c found to exhibit potent antioxidant activity as compared to the standard drug Trolox with IC50 values 6.02 ± 0.6 and 12.18 ± 0.9 µM, respectively.

The measurement of the geo-neutrino flux with the Borexino detector and its geophysical implications
Creators: name: Gromov, Maxim

Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2020

description: The new Borexino geo-neutrino analysis includes the well-optimized cuts and increased dataset. Consequently, the exposure is doubled providing $(1.29\pm0.05)\times10^{32}$ protons$\cdot$year. The geo-neutrino signal equals $47.0_{-7.7}^{+8.4}$ (stat) $_{-1.9}^{+2.4}$ (sys) TNU corresponding to $_{-17.2}^{+18.3}\%$ total precision. The mantle signal of $21.2_{-9.0}^{+9.6}$ (stat) $_{-0.9}^{+1.1}$ (sys) TNU is derived using the geological knowledge of the local and far field lithosphere. The null-hypothesis is excluded at $99.0\%$ C.L. The total radiogenic heat of $38.2_{-12.7}^{+13.6}$ TW is obtained. The predictions of the lowest concentration of heat-producing elements in the mantle are slightly disfavored ($\sim2.4\sigma$). The constraint on the hypothetical georeactor power is $2.4$ TW at $95\%$ C.L. if located at the Earth's center.
