description: We study the physics of a magnetic molecule described by a "giant" spin with multiple ($d > 2$) spin states interacting with the quantized cavity field produced by a superconducting resonator. By means of the input-output formalism, we derive an expression for the output modes in the dispersive regime of operation. It includes the effect of magnetic anisotropy, which makes different spin transitions addressable. We find that the measurement of the cavity transmission allows to uniquely determine the spin state of the qudits. We discuss, from an effective Hamiltonian perspective, the conditions under which the qudit read-out is a non-demolition measurement and consider possible experimental protocols to perform it. Finally, we illustrate our results with simulations performed for realistic models of existing magnetic molecules.

description: Introduction: The covid-19 pandemic started in December 2019 in China. Its first confirmed cases were in Feb 2020 in Iran. It affects not only physical health but also well-being and Quality of life. Previous Studies have widely explored the Quality of life in wealthy communities during the COVID-19 pandemic; the present study selected the earthquake-prone and underprivileged city of Zarand (Iran) and aimed to evaluate the Quality of life and anxiety. Methods: A total of 291 patients infected with COVID-19 were included in this cross-sectional study. They were selected using systematic non-random sampling. The participants' Quality of life and anxiety were evaluated using the online WHO-Quality of Life-BREF and Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI). The analysis was not limited to the significance and included the effect size. Data were analyzed by SPSS software version 26 using Spearman's correlation, T-test, and Kruskal-Wallis. Results: The survey results showed that on average, the Quality of life scores were less than 50 out of 100. 58% of patients reported moderate to severe anxiety, and there was a negative correlation between all of the four physical (P-value 0.001), psychological(P-value 0.001), social(P-value 0.007), and environmental(P-value 0.001) domains of Quality of life and anxiety, respectively. Degree of education and Quality of life were positively correlated in all domains except for the environmental part. Participants Age ranged from 18 to 58, and the correlation between Age and the physical and psychological domain was significant. No significant correlation was found between the Quality of life, sex, and marital status. Conclusions: The current study provides evidence of low Quality of life and high anxiety levels in patients who experienced COVID-19. This consequence implicates immediate considerations and an increase in psychological services to be considered by policymakers and officials.

description: The center of the Milky Way hosts the closest supermassive black hole, SgrA$^*$. Decades of near-infrared observations of our Galactic Center have shown the presence of a small population of stars (the so called S-star cluster) orbiting SgrA$^*$, which were recently reported to be arranged in two orthogonal disks. In this case, the timescale for Lense-Thirring precession of S-stars should be longer than their age, implying a low spin for SgrA$^*$. In contrast, the recent results by the Event Horizon Telescope favor a highly-spinning SgrA$^*$, which seem to suggest that the S-stars could not be arranged in disks. Alternatively, the spin of SgrA$^*$ must be small, suggesting that the models for its observed image are incomplete.

description: Gas discs of late-type galaxies are flared, with scale heights increasing with the distance from the galaxy centres and often reaching kpc scales. We study the effects of gas disc flaring on the recovered dark matter halo parameters from rotation curve decomposition. For this, we carefully select a sample of 32 dwarf and spiral galaxies with high-quality neutral gas, molecular gas, and stellar mass profiles, robust H\,{\sc i} rotation curves obtained via 3D kinematic modelling, and reliable bulge-disc decomposition. By assuming vertical hydrostatic equilibrium, we derive the scale heights of the atomic and molecular gas discs and fit dark matter haloes to the rotation curves self-consistently. We find that the effect of the gas flaring in the rotation curve decomposition can play an important role only for the smallest, gas-dominated dwarfs, while for most of the galaxies the effect is minor and can be ignored. We revisit the stellar- and baryon-to-halo mass relations ($M_\ast-M_{200}$ and $M_{\rm bar}-M_{200}$). Both relations increase smoothly up to $M_{200} \approx 10^{12}~\rm{ M_\odot}$, with galaxies at this end having high $M_\ast/M_{200}$ and $M_{\rm bar}/M_{200}$ ratios approaching the cosmological baryon fraction. At higher $M_{200}$ the relations show a larger scatter. Most haloes of our galaxy sample closely follow the concentration-mass ($c_{200}-M_{\rm 200}$) relation resulting from N-body cosmological simulations. Interestingly, the galaxies deviating above and below the relation have the highest and lowest stellar and baryon factions, respectively, which suggests that the departures from the $c_{200}-M_{\rm 200}$ law are regulated by adiabatic contraction and an increasing importance of feedback.

description: We study the creation of quantum skyrmions in quadratic nanoscopic lattices of quantum spins coupled by Dzyaloshinkii-Moriya and exchange interactions. We numerically show that different kinds of quantum skyrmions, characterized by the magnitude of their spin expectation values and strong differences in their stability, can appear as ground state and as metastable excitations. In dependence on the coupling strengths and the lattice size, an adiabatic rotation scheme of the magnetization at the lattice boundaries allows for a controlled creation of quantum skyrmions.

description: We study the effect of the strain on the band structure and the valley-dependent transport property of graphene heterojunctions. It is found that valley-dependent separation of electrons can be achieved by utilizing the strain and on-site energies. In the presence of the strain, the values of the transmission can be effectively adjusted by changing the strengths of the strain, while the transport angle basically keeps unchanged. When an extra on-site energy is simultaneously applied to the central scattering region, not only are the electrons of valleys K and K' separated into two distinct transmission lobes in opposite transverse directions, but the transport angles of two valleys can be significantly changed. Therefore, one can realize an effective modulation of valley-dependent transport by changing the strength and stretch angle of the strain and on-site energies, which can be exploited for graphene-based valleytronics devices.

description: We derive the nonlinear $σ$-model to describe diffusive transport in normal metals and superconductors with intrinsic spin-orbit coupling (SOC). The SOC is described via an SU(2) gauge field, and we expand the model to the fourth order in gradients to find the leading non-Abelian field-strength contribution. This contribution generates the spin-charge coupling that is responsible for the spin-Hall effect. We discuss how its symmetry differs from the leading quasiclassical higher-order gradient terms. We also derive the corresponding Usadel equation describing the diffusive spin-charge dynamics in superconducting systems. As an example, we apply the obtained equations to describe the anomalous supercurrent in dirty Rashba superconductors at arbitrary temperatures.

description: We have investigated the axial charges of the ground octet baryons within the extended chiral constituent quark model, where all the possible compact five-quark Fock components $qqq(q\bar{q}) (q=u, d, s)$ in the baryons are considered. The transition couplings between the three- and five-quark components in the baryons are assumed to be via the $^{3}P_{0}$ mechanism, which could reproduce the sea asymmetry in proton very well. The numerical results for the flavor-dependent axial charges of the octet baryons are comparable to those predicted by other theoretical approaches. It is shown that the singlet axial charges of the octet baryons, which should indicate total baryons spin arising from the spin of the quarks, fall in the range $0.45-0.75$ in present model. This is in consistent with the predictions by lattice QCD and chiral perturbation theory. It's also very interesting that the light quarks spin $Δu$ and $Δd$ in the $Λ$ baryon are of small but negative values, which exactly vanish in the traditional three-quark model.

description: The spectral observations and analysis for the W80 Region are presented by using the data of Medium-Resolution Spectroscopic Survey of Nebulae (MRS-N) with the Large Sky Area Multi-Object Fiber Spectroscopy Telescope (LAMOST). A total of 2982 high-quality nebular spectra have been obtained in the 20 square degree field of view (FoV) which covers the W80 complex, and the largest sample of spectral data have been established for the first time. The relative intensities, radial velocities (RVs), and Full Widths at Half Maximum (FWHMs) are measured with the high spectral resolution of LAMOST MRS, for H$α$ $λ$ 6563 Å, [\ion{N}{ii}] $λ$$λ$ 6548 Å, 6584 Å\ , and [\ion{S}{ii}] $λ$$λ$ 6716 Å, 6731 Å\ emission lines. In the field of view of whole W80 Region, the strongest line emissions are found to be consistent with the bright nebulae, NGC 7000, IC 5070, and LBN 391, and weak line emissions also truly exist in the Middle Region, where no bright nebulae are detected by the wide-band optical observations. The large-scale spectral observations to the W80 Region reveal the systematic spatial variations of RVs and FWHMs, and several unique structural features. A 'curved feature' to the east of the NGC 7000, and a 'jet feature' to the west of the LBN 391 are detected to be showing with larger radial velocities. A 'wider FWHM region' is identified in the eastern part of the NGC 7000. The variations of [\ion{S}{ii}] / H$α$ ratios display a gradient from southwest to northeast in the NGC 7000 region, and manifest a ring shape around the 'W80 bubble' ionized by an O-type star in the L935. Further spectral and multi-band observations are guaranteed to investigate in detail the structural features.

description: The dynamics of a filled massive vortex is studied numerically and analytically using a two-dimensional model of a two-component Bose--Einstein condensate trapped in a harmonic trap. This condensate exhibits phase separation. In the framework of the coupled Gross--Pitaevskii equations, it is demonstrated that, in a certain range of parameters of the nonlinear interaction, the precession of a sufficiently massive vortex around the center is strongly slowed down and even reverses its direction with a further increase in the mass. An approximate ordinary differential equation is derived that makes it possible to explain this behavior of the system.

Revisiting the origin to bridge a gap between topology and topography optimisation of fluid flow problems

description: This paper revisits the origin of topology optimisation for fluid flow problems, namely the Poiseuille-based frictional resistance term used to parametrise regions of solid and fluid. The traditional model only works for true topology optimisation, where it is used to approximate solid regions as areas with very small channel height and, thus, very high frictional resistance. It will be shown that if the channel height is allowed to vary continuously and/or the minimum channel height is relatively large and/or meaning is attributed to intermediate design field values, then the predictions of the traditional model are wrong. To remedy this problem, this work introduces an augmentation of the mass conservation equation to allow for continuously varying channel heights. The proposed planar model accurately describes fully-developed flow between two plates of varying channel height. It allows for a significant reduction in the number of degrees-of-freedom, while generally ensuring a high accuracy for low-to-moderate Reynolds numbers in the laminar regime. The accuracy and limitations of both the traditional and proposed models are explored using in-depth parametric studies. The proposed model is used to optimise the height of the fluid channel between two parallel plates and, thus, the topography of the plates for a flow distribution problem. Lastly, it is observed that the proposed model actually produces better topological designs than the traditional model when applied to the topology optimisation of a flow manifold.

description: We investigate ways to produce the bifurcation observed in the stellar stream of the Sagittarius dwarf galaxy (Sgr). Our method consists in running $N$-body simulations of Sgr falling into the Milky Way for the last 3~Gyr, with added test particles on disk orbits that span a wide range of initial positions, energies, and angular momenta. We find that particles that end up in the faint branch are predominantly high angular momentum particles that can all originate from a single plane within the progenitor, nearly perpendicular both to the orbital plane of the progenitor and to the Milky Way stellar disk. Their original configuration at the start of the simulation corresponds to spiral features already present 3~Gyr ago, which could be, e.g., the result of a disk-like component being tidally perturbed, or the tidal tails of a satellite being disrupted within Sgr. We then run a simulation including the self-gravity of this disky component. Despite the remaining ambiguity of its origin, this disk component of the Sgr dwarf with spiral over-densities provides a first step towards a working model to reproduce the observed faint branch of the bifurcated Sgr stream.

description: In this article, we intuitively define and introduce Ramanujan graphs. We focus on notable Ramanujan graphs known as sum graphs, characterized by specific properties related to eigenvalues. Indeed, studying these eigenvalues allows us to determine the spectrum of a Ramanujan graph, which is defined as the minimum of the difference between k and the absolute value (other than k) of an eigenvalue of a k-regular Ramanujan graph. This spectrum is as large as possible. For a graph to be Ramanujan, it is necessary and sufficient to study its eigenvalues, and eventually, to construct a finite family of Ramanujan graphs.
Testing Horndeski Gravity from EHT Observational Results for Rotating Black Holes

description: The Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) collaboration recently unveiled the first image of the supermassive black hole M87*, which exhibited a ring of angular diameter $θ_{d}=42 \pm 3 μas$, a circularity deviation $ΔC \leq 0.1$, and also inferred a black hole mass of $M=(6.5 \pm 0.7) \times 10^9 M_\odot $. This provides a new window onto tests of theories of gravity in the strong-field regime, including probes of violations of the no-hair theorem. It is widely believed that the Kerr metric describes the astrophysical black holes, as encapsulated in the critical but untested no-hair theorem. Modeling Horndeski gravity black holes -- with additional hair parameter $h$ besides the mass $M$ and spin $a$ of the Kerr black hole -- as the supermassive black hole M87*, we observe that to be a viable astrophysical black hole candidate, the EHT result constrains ($a$, $h$) parameter space. However, a systematic bias analysis indicates rotating Horndeski black hole shadows may or may not capture Kerr black hole shadows, depending on the parameter values; the latter is the case over a substantial part of the constrained parameter space, allowing Horndeski gravity and general relativity to be distinguishable in the said space, and opening up the possibility of potential modifications to the Kerr metric.

description: We acoustically measured the energy level for thermally activated conduction (TAC) in high-resistivity Fe-doped GaN using the non-contacting antenna-transmission acoustic-resonance method. The acoustic attenuation takes a maximum at a specific temperature, where the TAC is accelerated with the help of phonon energy. The Debye type relaxation is thus observed for acoustic attenuation, and its activation energy (0.54$\pm$0.04 eV) was determined with attenuation measurements at various frequencies and temperatures. This value agrees with the E3 level in GaN, indicating that thermally associated conduction originates from the E3 trap level. We also measured the five independent elastic constants at high temperatures.

description: Introdução: A sépsis por fungos causa elevada morbilidade e mortalidade em Unidades de Cuidados Intensivos Neonatais (UCIN).

Objectivo: Determinar a incidência de casos de sépsis por fungos no recém-nascido de muito baixo peso à nascença (RNMBP), analisar a presença de factores de risco e a efectividade terapêutica. População e métodos. Estudaram-se RNMBP admitidos numa UCIN de um hospital de apoio perinatal diferenciado entre Janeiro de 1990 e Dezembro de 2002 (nascidos ou transferidos por prematuridade). Reviram-se processos clínicos de RNMBP com suspeita clínica de sépsis e uma hemocultura, cultura de liquor ou exame anatomo-patológico positivo para fungos. Dados referentes a variáveis contínuas apresentam-se como mediana (mínimo-máximo).

Resultados: Registaram-se 20 casos de sépsis por fungos, correspondendo a uma incidência de 1,05% (população total de RNMBP =1901). Isolou-se Candida albicans em dezanove hemoculturas e dois exames anatomo-patológicos. A mediana da idade gestacional foi 26 semanas (24-32) e do peso de nascimento 835g (700-1450). Na altura do diagnóstico, a maioria dos recém-nascidos tinha catéteres centrais (100%) e tinha sido sujeita a ventilação mecânica (95%), alimentação parentérica total prolongada (100%) e antibioterapia de largo
espectro (100%). A mediana da idade no diagnóstico foi 21 dias (10-80). Verificou-se atingimento de órgão em seis casos. A terapêutica efectuada foi predominantemente a anfotericina B (95%) com efectividade de 83% e taxa de toxicidade hepática de 20%. A taxa de letalidade foi 15%.

Conclusões: O principal grupo afectado foi o recém-nascido com menos de 1000g de peso à nascença e menos de 28 semanas de idade gestacional. A presença de factores de risco foi frequente. A anfotericina B foi o fármaco de eleição com boa efectividade e toxicidade moderada. O exame anatomo-patológico post mortem foi decisivo no diagnóstico etiológico de sépsis sem agente isolado, de atingimento de órgão e da causa de morte.

description: Introdução: As taxas de prevalência de tuberculose infecção e doença têm declinado em Portugal. No entanto, a pandemia da infecção pelo vírus de imunodeficiência humana, a toxicodependência e más condições de salubridade podem reverter esta tendência. O rastreio de crianças assintomáticas em contacto com adultos em risco de contrair a doença é crucial pois os casos de tuberculose infantil são devidos a um risco elevado e recente de transmissão na comunidade.

Objectivos: Determinar a prevalência de tuberculose infecção/ doença numa amostra de crianças em contacto com adultos de risco; determinar a prevalência de factores de risco e sua efectividade como preditores de infecção/doença nesta amostra; administrar quimioprofilaxia/terapêutica aos casos detectados e investigar as possíveis fontes de contágio.

População e Métodos: Estudou-se uma amostra de conveniência de crianças que frequentavam uma instituição recreativa para crianças e jovens na Ameixoeira – Lumiar (Lisboa) no período de Abril-Maio de 2005. Aplicou-se um questionário sobre factores de risco para tuberculose e fez-se prova tuberculínica pelo método de Mantoux. Aleitura foi efectuada após 72 horas. Os casos positivos (induração > 15 mm de diâmetro) foram submetidos a avaliação clínica e radiológica e quimioprofilaxia/terapêutica. Os seus coabitantes foram investigados. Os dados foram analisados pelo programa StatCal-Epiinfo 3.2.2.

Resultados: Estudaram-se 100 crianças (54 famílias) das quais 44% tinham pelo menos um factor de risco. Em duas crianças o teste de tuberculina foi positivo sendo o diagnóstico final de tuberculose infecção. O rastreio dos seus
coabitantes foi negativo. Aprevalência de infecção na amostra estudada foi de 2:100. O questionário aplicado teve um valor preditivo positivo de 2,2% e negativo de 98% para detectar infecção por tuberculose.

Conclusões: Aprevalência de infecção na amostra de crianças estudada foi elevada. O questionário aplicado teve pouca acuidade para predizer a presença de infecção/doença nesta amostra.

Surface C, N, O, and Na abundances of RR Lyrae variables implying the nature of internal mixing in low-mass stars

description: Photospheric abundances of C, N, O, and Na were determined by applying the synthetic spectrum-fitting technique to 34 snap-shot high-dispersion spectra of 22 RR Lyr stars covering a metallicity range of -1.8 <[Fe/H] < 0.0, with an aim of investigating the mixing mechanism in the interior of low-mass giant stars by examining the abundance anomalies of these elements possibly affected by the evolution-induced dredge-up of nuclear burning products. Special attention was paid to check the recent theoretical stellar evolution simulations indicating the importance of thermohaline mixing in low-mass stars (M <~1 M_sun), which is expected to be more significant as the metallicity is lowered. By inspecting the resulting abundances in comparison with those of unevolved metal-poor dwarfs at the same metallicity, the deficiency in C as well as enrichment in N was confirmed (while O is almost unchanged), the extent of peculiarities tending to increase with a decrease in [Fe/H]. Accordingly, the [C/N] ratio turned out to progressively decrease towards lower metallicity from ~0 (Fe/H]~0) to ~-1 ([Fe/H]~-1.5), which is reasonably consistent with the theoretical prediction in the presence of thermohaline mixing. However, these RR Lyr stars do not show any apparent Na anomaly (i.e., essentially the same [Na/Fe] vs. [Fe/H] trends as those of dwarfs), despite that metallicity-dependent overabundance in Na is theoretically expected for the case of non-canonical mixing. This inconsistency between C/N and Na may suggest a necessity of further improvement in the current theory.

description: Resumo: A nefronoftisis é uma entidade clínico-patológica hereditária recessiva que se enquadra num complexo clínico designado por nefronoftisis/doença quística medular e se caracteriza por nefropatia tubulo-intersticial crónica e progressiva que conduz sempre a insuficiência renal crónica terminal. Descreve-se o caso de uma adolescente de 12 anos de idade com agudização de insuficiência renal crónica de evolução silenciosa, com sintomatologia inicial inespecífica, não valorizada de poliúria e polidipsia, a que se associou anemia e retenção azotada graves, com rins de dimensões reduzidas e com perda da normal diferenciação cortico-medular. Salienta-se a inespecificidade das manifestações clínicas iniciais com progressão inevitável para insuficiência renal crónica terminal da nefronoftisis juvenil, sendo fundamental um elevado índice de suspeição diagnóstica desta identidade patológica.

description: In this work we make use of a general relativistic method to estimate the mass-to-distance ratio M/D = 3.54^{+0.2}_{-0.2} X 10^4 M_{sun}/Mpc of the black hole hosted at the core of the active galactic nucleus of TXS 2226-184, along with its Right Ascension offset and the recession redshift (velocity) of the galaxy. Our statistical fit is based on the frequency shift of photons emitted by water masers and their orbital positions when circularly revolving around the black hole center within the accretion disk of the active galactic nucleus. By taking into account a previously reported distance to the galaxy, we compare the result of the black hole mass fit to an estimate based on a mass-luminosity correlation. We find that the black hole mass at the core of TXS 2226-184 obtained with the aid of the statistical fit using the general relativistic method, M = 3.67 ^{+0.2}_{-0.2} X 10^6 M_{sun}, is approximately 0.6 times the black hole mass, M_{BH} = 6.24^{+3.6}_{-2.3} X 10^6 M_{sun}, computed with the mass-luminosity correlation.
