description: Pyrrolo[2,3-b]quinoxaline derivatives are known to possess antioxidant, anticancer, and antibacterial properties. Here we report the successful synthesis of five derivatives of 3-hydroxy-3-pyrroline-2-one through substitution. The 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) assay was employed to evaluate the antioxidant activity of the compounds. Out of these, ethyl 1,2-diphenyl-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]quinoxaline-3-carboxylate (3a) demonstrated the greatest potential as a radical scavenger. Thermodynamic and kinetic calculations of the radical scavenging activity indicated that 3a exhibited HO˙ radical scavenging activity with the overall rate constant of 8.56 × 108 M−1 s−1 in pentyl ethanoate; however, it was incapable of scavenging hydroperoxyl radicals in nonpolar media. In non-polar environments, the hydroxyl radical scavenging capability of 3a is fairly similar to that of reference antioxidants such as Trolox, melatonin, indole-3-carbinol, and gallic acid. Hence, in the physiological lipid environment, 3a holds promise as a scavenger of HO˙ radicals.

description: We report trace element analyses from mineral phases in chondrules from carbonaceous chondrites (Vigarano, Renazzo and Acfer 187), carried out by laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry. Results are similar in all three meteorites. Mesostasis has Rare Earth Element (REE) concentrations of 10-20 x CI. Low-Ca pyroxene has light REE (LREE) concentrations near 0.1 x CI and heavy REE (HREE) near 1 x CI respectively. Olivine has HREE concentrations at 0.1-1 x CI and LREE around 10-2 x CI. The coarsest olivine crystals tend to have the most fractionated REE patterns, indicative of equilibrium partitioning. Low-Ca pyroxene in the most pyroxene-rich chondrules tends to have the lowest REE concentrations. Type I chondrules seem to have undergone a significant degree of batch crystallization (as opposed to fractional crystallization), which requires cooling rates slower than 1-100 K/h. This would fill the gap between igneous CAIs and type II chondrules. The anticorrelation between REE abundances and pyroxene mode may be understood as due to dilution by addition of silica to the chondrule melt, as in the gas-melt interaction scenario of Libourel et al. (2006). The rapid cooling rate (of the order of 1000 K/h) which seems recorded by low-Ca pyroxene, contrasted with the more diverse record of olivine, may point to a nonlinear cooling history or suggest that formation of pyroxene-rich chondrule margins was an event distinct from the crystallization of the interior.

description: We analyze GW150914 post-merger data to understand if ringdown overtone detection claims are robust. We find no evidence in favor of an overtone in the data after the waveform peak. Around the peak, the Bayes factor does not indicate the presence of an overtone, while the support for a nonzero amplitude is sensitive to changes in the starting time much smaller than the overtone damping time. This suggests that claims of an overtone detection are noise-dominated. We perform GW150914-like injections in neighboring segments of the real detector noise, and we show that noise can indeed induce artificial evidence for an overtone.

Postprocessing can speed up general quantum search algorithms

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A general quantum search algorithm aims to evolve a quantum system from a known source state $|s\rangle$ to an unknown target state $|t\rangle$. It uses a diffusion operator $D_{s}$ having source state as one of its eigenstates and $I_{t}$, where $I_ψ$ denotes the selective phase inversion of $|ψ\rangle$ state. It evolves $|s\rangle$ to a particular state $|w\rangle$, call it w-state, in $O(B/α)$ time steps where $α$ is $|\langle t|s\rangle|$ and $B$ is a characteristic of the diffusion operator. Measuring the w-state gives the target state with the success probability of $O(1/B^{2})$ and $O(B^{2})$ applications of the algorithm can boost it from $O(1/B^{2})$ to $O(1)$, making the total time complexity $O(B^{3}/α)$. In the special case of Grover's algorithm, $D_{s}$ is $I_{s}$ and $B$ is very close to $1$. A more efficient way to boost the success probability is quantum amplitude amplification provided we can efficiently implement $I_{w}$. Such an efficient implementation is not known so far. In this paper, we present an efficient algorithm to approximate selective phase inversions of the unknown eigenstates of an operator using phase estimation algorithm. This algorithm is used to efficiently approximate $I_{w}$ which reduces the time complexity of general algorithm to $O(B/α)$. Though $O(B/α)$ algorithms are known to exist, our algorithm offers physical implementation advantages.

description: We numerically study the phase diagram of bosons tightly trapped in the lowest band of an optical lattice and dispersively coupled to a single-mode cavity field. The dynamics is encompassed by an extended Bose-Hubbard model. Here, the cavity-mediated interactions are described by a two-body potential term with a global range and by a correlated tunneling term where the hopping amplitude depends on a global observable. We determine the ground state properties in one dimension by means of the density matrix renormalization group algorithm, focusing on the effects due to the correlated tunneling. The latter is responsible for the onset of bond orders, manifesting in one insulating and two gapless bond ordered phases. We discuss the resulting phases for different geometries that correspond to different relative strengths of the correlated tunneling coefficient. We finally analyze the scaling of the entanglement entropy in the gapless bond ordered phases that appear entirely due to global interactions and determine the corresponding central charges.

description: We report trace element analyses by laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry of metal grains from 9 different CR chondrites, distinguishing grains from chondrule interior ("interior grains"), chondrule surficial shells ("margin grains") and the matrix ("isolated grains"). Save for a few anomalous grains, Ni-normalized trace element patterns are similar for all three petrographical settings, with largely unfractionated refractory siderophile elements and depleted volatile Au, Cu, Ag, S. All types of grains are interpreted to derive from a common precursor approximated by the least melted, fine-grained objects in CR chondrites. This also excludes recondensation of metal vapor as the origin of the bulk of margin grains. The metal precursors presumably formed by incomplete condensation, with evidence for high-temperature isolation of refractory platinum-group-element (PGE)-rich condensates before mixing with lower temperature PGE-depleted condensates. The rounded shape of the Ni-rich, interior grains indicates melting and equilibration with silicates upon slow cooling (1-100 K/h), largely by oxidation/evaporation of Fe. We propose that Ni-poorer, amoeboid margin grains, often included in the pyroxene-rich periphery common to type I chondrules, result from less intense processing of a rim accreted onto the chondrule subsequent to the melting event recorded by the interior. This means either that there were two separate heating events, which formed olivine/interior grains and pyroxene/margin grains, respectively, between which dust was accreted around the chondrule, or there was a single high-temperature event, of which the chondrule margin record a late "quenching phase", in which case dust accreted onto chondrules while they were molten. In the latter case, high dust concentrations in the chondrule-forming region are indicated.

description: Multi-modality images have been widely used and provide comprehensive information for medical image analysis. However, acquiring all modalities among all institutes is costly and often impossible in clinical settings. To leverage more comprehensive multi-modality information, we propose a privacy secured decentralized multi-modality adaptive learning architecture named ModalityBank. Our method could learn a set of effective domain-specific modulation parameters plugged into a common domain-agnostic network. We demonstrate by switching different sets of configurations, the generator could output high-quality images for a specific modality. Our method could also complete the missing modalities across all data centers, thus could be used for modality completion purposes. The downstream task trained from the synthesized multi-modality samples could achieve higher performance than learning from one real data center and achieve close-to-real performance compare with all real images.

Subjects: subject: Quantum Gases (cond-mat.quant-gas)

description: We investigate the procedures of loading and detecting three-dimensional fermionic quantum gases in a one-dimensional optical superlattice potential subjected to a trapping potential. Additionally, we consider the relaxation dynamics after a sudden change of the superlattice potential. We numerically simulate the time-dependent evolution of the continuous system using exact diagonalization of non-interacting fermions. During the loading procedure we analyze the occupation of the instantaneous energy levels and compare the situation in a homogeneous system with the trapped one. Strong differences are found in particular in the evolution of excitations which we trace back to the distinct global density distribution. Starting from an imbalanced state in the superlattice potential, we consider the relaxation dynamics of fermions after a slow change of the superlattice potential and find a bimodule distribution of excitations. To be able to compare with the experimental results we also simulate the measurement sequence of the even and odd local density and find a strong dependence of the outcome on the actual ramp procedure. We suggest how the loading and detecting procedure can be optimized.

description: Distribution transformers are an essential component employed widely in electrical power transmission systems. Heat generation in summer due to overloading on these transformers, is a critical problem especially in developing countries like Pakistan. These transformers are designed to operate within specific temperature range. The significant factors involved in temperature rise are; quantity of oil, geometric parameters of tank and fins as well as heat transfer coefficients of their materials and coatings. Improper heat dissipation causes frequent tripping, degrades the insulation quality and decreases the transformer’s life. Therefore, efficient cooling is an essential requirement for its durable operation. The main objective, of this project, is to enhance the heat transfer rate of domestic transformers by optimizing the fin design using numerical analysis and CFD analysis approach, to improve its overall performance and life expectancy. A comparison of results is performed between conventional and optimized designs in terms of optimum number of fins required for specific overloading conditions. The proposed fin design of transformer for improved cooling process would be helpful, in decreasing annual expenditures being spent by the government on frequent malfunctioning of transformers. It is worth noting that environmental effects also influence the cooling process externally. Further optimization of thermal conductivity and dielectric strength of mineral oil is done by mixing "Alumina" nanoparticles in it. The stability of nanofluids is the major concern for their use at commercial level instead of oil although they have better thermal properties.

Together with similar correspondence between the Calogero-oscillator and oscillator models, this observation permits to claim that most of properties of Coulomb and oscillator systems can be lifted to their Calogero-extended analogs by the proper replacement of momenta by Dunkl momenta operators.

description: We study memristive effects in Kagomé nanopatterned permalloy. We observe that at low frequencies a thermistor effect is present, a phenomenon arising due to the lithography and absent in similar experiments for thin films. However, we also show via an independent anisotropic magnetoresistive study that a small hysteresis accounting for 1% of the effect is not attributable to a thermistive effect. Such effect is also confirmed by a careful subtraction scheme between nearby thermal hysteresis. In the millihertz regime, an effective model is provided to describe the experimental results for the thermistor, showing that there should be a crossover from the millihertz to the gigahertz, from a thermistor to an memresistive effect for nanopatterned permalloy.

description: Severe COVID-19 is associated with epithelial and endothelial barrier dysfunction within the lung as well as in distal organs. While it is appreciated that an exaggerated inflammatory response is associated with barrier dysfunction, the triggers of vascular leak are unclear. Here, we report that cell-intrinsic interactions between the Spike (S) glycoprotein of SARS-CoV-2 and epithelial/endothelial cells are sufficient to induce barrier dysfunction in vitro and vascular leak in vivo, independently of viral replication and the ACE2 receptor. We identify an S-triggered transcriptional response associated with extracellular matrix reorganization and TGF-β signaling. Using genetic knockouts and specific inhibitors, we demonstrate that glycosaminoglycans, integrins, and the TGF-β signaling axis are required for S-mediated barrier dysfunction. Notably, we show that SARS-CoV-2 infection caused leak in vivo, which was reduced by inhibiting integrins. Our findings offer mechanistic insight into SARS-CoV-2-triggered vascular leak, providing a starting point for development of therapies targeting COVID-19.

description: Topological semimetals such as Weyl or Dirac semimetals with superconductivity have emerged as a new class of topological materials to realize and study Majorana Fermion. This article reports the Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculated bulk electronic band structure of recently discovered topological superconductor candidate AuSn4. The study has been performed on AuSn4 considering two space groups symmetries viz. Aea2 and Ccce, as reported earlier. This study is further extended to the calculation of Z2 invariants. The Fermi surfaces corresponding to the bands, which are responsible for non-trivial band topology, along with the surface states, are also mapped. The complete study suggests that AuSn4 is a topological semimetal. On AuSn4, it is the first report in the literature showing the non-trivial band topology based on first-principle calculations.

description: We present a clinical case of a 73-year-old female patient with a lesion on the upper lip of 15 mm. A resection of the lesion is performed leaving margins of 5 mm, with a histopathological diagnosis of basal cell carcinoma. A nasolabial rotation flap was made of approximately 30 mm in diameter. She went for a check-up after 2 weeks with adequate healing, the sutures were removed and the results were recorded 4 weeks after surgery. The general measures to take into account for the reconstruction of the upper lip are in relation to preserving its functionality and aesthetics. The surgeon should avoid horizontal scars by making incisions following the tension lines of the relaxed skin or wrinkles. The nasolabial flap provides a lot of variations that can be used depending on the size and localization of the lesion. This flap is an excellent option for facial reconstruction after oncologic surgery, and in this case, a very good aesthetically and functional result.

description: Concern about income inequality has become prominent in public discourse around the world. However, studies in behavioral economics and psychology have consistently shown that people prefer not equal but fair income distributions. Thus, finding a benchmark that could be used to measure fair income distribution across countries is a theoretical and practical challenge. Here a method for benchmarking fair income distribution is introduced. The benchmark is constructed based on the concepts of procedural justice, distributive justice, and authority's power in professional sports where it is widely agreed as an international norm that the allocations of athlete's salary are outcomes of fair rules, individual and/or team performance, and luck in line with no-envy principle of fair allocation. Using the World Bank data, this study demonstrates how the benchmark could be used to quantitatively gauge whether, for a given value of the Gini index, the income shares by quintile of a country are the fair shares or not, and if not, what fair income shares by quintile of that country should be. Knowing this could be useful for those involved in setting targets for the Gini index and the fair income shares that are appropriate for the context of each country before formulating policies toward achieving the Sustainable Development Goal 10 and other SDGs.

description: A calibration of the mixing-length parameter in the local mixing-length theory (MLT) is presented for the lower part of the convection zone in pure-hydrogen atmosphere white dwarfs. The parameterization is performed from a comparison of 3D CO5BOLD simulations with a grid of 1D envelopes with a varying mixing-length parameter. In many instances, the 3D simulations are restricted to the upper part of the convection zone. The hydrodynamical calculations suggest, in those cases, that the entropy of the upflows does not change significantly from the bottom of the convection zone to regions immediately below the photosphere. We rely on this asymptotic entropy value, characteristic of the deep and adiabatically stratified layers, to calibrate 1D envelopes. The calibration encompasses the convective hydrogen-line (DA) white dwarfs in the effective temperature range 6000 < Teff (K) < 15,000 and the surface gravity range 7.0 < log g < 9.0. It is established that the local MLT is unable to reproduce simultaneously the thermodynamical, flux, and dynamical properties of the 3D simulations. We therefore propose three different parameterizations for these quantities. The resulting calibration can be applied to structure and envelope calculations, in particular for pulsation, chemical diffusion, and convective mixing studies. On the other hand, convection has no effect on the white dwarf cooling rates until there is a convective coupling with the degenerate core below Teff ~ 5000 K. In this regime, the 1D structures are insensitive to the MLT parameterization and converge to the mean 3D results, hence remain fully appropriate for age determinations.

description: The electronic, optical and magnetic properties of graphene nanoribbons (GNRs) can be engineered by controlling their edge structure and width with atomic precision through bottom-up fabrication based on molecular precursors. This approach offers a unique platform for all-carbon electronic devices but requires careful optimization of the growth conditions to match structural requirements for successful device integration, with GNR length being the most critical parameter. In this work, we study the growth, characterization, and device integration of 5-atom wide armchair GNRs (5-AGNRs), which are expected to have an optimal band gap as active material in switching devices. 5-AGNRs are obtained via on-surface synthesis under ultra-high vacuum conditions from Br- and I-substituted precursors. We show that the use of I-substituted precursors and the optimization of the initial precursor coverage quintupled the average 5-AGNR length. This significant length increase allowed us to integrate 5-AGNRs into devices and to realize the first field-effect transistor based on narrow bandgap AGNRs that shows switching behavior at room temperature. Our study highlights that optimized growth protocols can successfully bridge between the sub-nanometer scale, where atomic precision is needed to control the electronic properties, and the scale of tens of nanometers relevant for successful device integration of GNRs.

description: Knots are commonly found in molecular chains such as DNA and proteins, and they have been considered to be useful models for structural analysis of these molecules. One interested quantity is the minimum number of monomers necessary to realize a molecular knot. The minimum lattice length $\mbox{Len}(K)$ of a knot $K$ indicates the minimum length necessary to construct $K$ in the cubic lattice. Another important quantity in physical knot theory is the ropelength which is one of knot energies measuring the complexity of knot conformation. The minimum ropelength $\mbox{Rop}(K)$ is the minimum length of an ideally flexible rope necessary to tie a given knot $K$. Much effort has been invested in the research project for finding upper bounds on both quantities in terms of the minimum crossing number $c(K)$ of the knot. It is known that $\mbox{Len}(K)$ and $\mbox{Rop}(K)$ lie between $\mbox{O}(c(K)^{\frac{3}{4}})$ and $\mbox{O}(c(K) [\ln (c(K))]^5)$, but unknown yet whether any family of knots has superlinear growth. In this paper, we focus on 2-bridge knots and links. Linear growth upper bounds on the minimum lattice length and minimum ropelength for nontrivial 2-bridge knots or links are presented: $\mbox{Len}(K) \leq 8 c(K) + 2$. $\mbox{Rop}(K) \leq 11.39 c(K) + 12.37$.

description: We introduce Teegi, a Tangible ElectroEncephaloGraphy (EEG) Interface that enables novice users to get to know more about something as complex as brain signals, in an easy, en- gaging and informative way. To this end, we have designed a new system based on a unique combination of spatial aug- mented reality, tangible interaction and real-time neurotech- nologies. With Teegi, a user can visualize and analyze his or her own brain activity in real-time, on a tangible character that can be easily manipulated, and with which it is possible to interact. An exploration study has shown that interacting with Teegi seems to be easy, motivating, reliable and infor- mative. Overall, this suggests that Teegi is a promising and relevant training and mediation tool for the general public.

Semantic elicitation frames and their application
Creators: name: Berthelin, Signe Rix
Publisher: name: Semantic Fieldwork Methods
Year: 2020

description: Most semantic fieldwork studies seem to make use of elicitation in the sense of Matthewson (2004) at some point in the data collection process. It is therefore necessary to discuss and develop this technique in addition to innovative techniques such as storyboards and video. The present paper discusses the application of different types of elicitation questions, which I shall call ‘elicitation frames’. The elicitation frames are concrete sub-types of Bohnemeyer’s (2015) elicitation types. With examples from my own fieldwork, the paper shows what the employment of the elicitation frames may look like in actual interview sessions, and it discusses how the data they elicit can shed light on different hypotheses from different angles. The applications of the respective frames are also discussed in relation to individual consultant’s preferences. The intention is to contribute to explicit and critical reflections on the relation between hypothesis, elicitation frame and data point. The paper is thus primarily concerned with methodology. However, we generally want to present the collected data and make it useful to the scientific community and to the language community. The paper therefore includes two brief sections which address these matters: One discusses the option for using quotes in journal publications as a way to increase transparency and show how the language consultants have phrased their explanations of the subtle meaning nuances in the language that belongs to them. The other brief section shows an option for converting elicitation data into teaching materials.

Publisher: name: The Science world a Monthly e magazine
Year: 2023

description: Diamondback moth (DBM), Plutella xylostella, is destructive insect pest of cruciferous crops worldwide. The changing cropping pattern, monoculture, intensive cultivation of high yielding varieties, negligence of crop rotation, non-adoption of summer ploughing besides negation of other cultural practices and injudicious use of insecticides have aggravated this pest problem in cruciferous vegetables. Thus, the result is that DBM has developed resistance to most commonly used insecticides. Therefore, eco-friendly pest management (IPM) is now being considered to manage DBM in a more sustainable manner.

description: A pesquisa é resultado das atividades desenvolvidas no ateliê de papel na Fundação de Arte de Ouro Preto pelas alunas Daniele Silva e Isânia de Paula, com a supervisão do professor Marcelino Netto. Realizou-se procedimentos e testes, além de discussões sobre a técnica da fotopintura, um suporte com diversas nuances que demandou uma atenção especial ao ser restaurado pelo fato de precisar de testes para que a atividade tivesse continuidade. A obra restaurada é de propriedade privada de um aluno da Fundação, Petrus Rigotti, e faz parte de um conjunto em que há o retrato de Luiza Rigotti e Antônio Rigotti. O retrato pintado é de Luiza Rigotti, bisavó de Petrus. A outra obra do conjunto, de Antônio Rigotti, também foi restaurada por outras alunas da Fundação.  Sobre o estado de conservação das obras, essas encontravam-se em um porão sem moldura e sem vidro, logo, entende-se que as obras estavam em um local úmido e mal acondicionadas. A obra de Luiza Rigotti chegou ao ateliê com um corte no suporte e com pulverulência na camada pictórica e no verso do suporte. O trabalho realizado pretende solucionar os danos apresentados na obra, além de entregá-la ao proprietário acondicionada. O estado de conservação da obra é regular, visto que apresenta uma perda do suporte e há pulverulência tanto na camada pictórica quanto no suporte.
