description: We have performed a search for CPT violation in neutral charm meson oscillations. While flavor mixing in the charm sector is predicted to be small by the Standard Model, it is still possible to investigate CPT violation through a study of the proper time dependence of a CPT asymmetry in right-sign decay rates for $D^0\to K^-π^+$ and $\d0b\to K^+π^-$. This asymmetry is related to the CPT violating complex parameter $ξ$ and the mixing parameters $x$ and $y$: $A_{CPT}\propto{\rm Re} ξy-{\rm Im} ξx$ . Our 95% confidence level limit is $-0.0068

description: XENODORIS ODHNER IN FRANC (1968)
 Remarks
 Odhner in Franc (1968) introduced the name Xenodoris with no description (nomen nudum). The genus was based on Doris sordida Rüppell & Leuckart, 1830 The original description of D. sordida (Rüppell & Leuckart, 1828 -30) includes a short description in Latin and German, but no drawings. The dorsum of this species is dark brown in colour, vaulted, covered with large tubercles that are brighter than the rest of the body, some of them red-brown. The six ramified branchial leaves are black-brown, with brighter borders. The skin is leathery and the mantle margin projects considerably over the foot. This description fits with the characteristics of Asteronotus cespitosus (van Hasselt, 1824), which is also found in the Red Sea, and it is very likely that Xenodoris is a synonym of Asteronotus.

description: In this paper, we propose a novel system that integrates state-of-the-art, domain-specific large language models with advanced information retrieval techniques to deliver comprehensive and context-aware responses. Our approach facilitates seamless interaction among diverse components, enabling cross-validation of outputs to produce accurate, high-quality responses enriched with relevant data, images, tables, and other modalities. We demonstrate the system's capability to enhance response precision by leveraging a robust question-answering model, significantly improving the quality of dialogue generation. The system provides an accessible platform for real-time, high-fidelity interactions, allowing users to benefit from efficient human-computer interaction, precise retrieval, and simultaneous access to a wide range of literature and data. This dramatically improves the research efficiency of professionals in the biomedical and pharmaceutical domains and facilitates faster, more informed decision-making throughout the R\&D process.

description: This is the first of a series of papers devoted to certain pairs of commuting nilpotent elements in a semisimple Lie algebra that enjoy quite remarkable properties and which are expected to play a major role in Representation theory. The properties of these pairs and their role is similar to those of the principal nilpotents. To any principal nilpotent pair we associate a two-parameter analogue of the Kostant partition function, and propose the corresponding two-parameter analogue of the weight multiplicity formula. In a different direction, each principal nilpotent pair gives rise to a harmonic polynomial on the Cartesian square of the Cartan subalgebra, that transforms under an irreducible representation of the Weyl group. In the special case of sl_n, the conjugacy classes of principal nilpotent pairs and the irreducible representations of the Symmetric group, S_n, are both parametrised (in a compatible way) by Young diagrams. In general, our theory provides a natural generalization to arbitrary Weyl groups of the classical construction of simple S_n-modules in terms of Young's symmetrisers.

description: We numerically estimate the leading asymptotic behavior of the length $L_{n}$ of the longest increasing subsequence of random walks with step increments following Student's $t$-distribution with parameter in the range $1/2 \leq ν\leq 5$. We find that the expected value $\mathbb{E}(L_{n}) \sim n^θ\ln{n}$ with $θ$ decreasing from $θ(ν=1/2) \approx 0.70$ to $θ(ν\geq 5/2) \approx 0.50$. For random walks with distribution of step increments of finite variance ($ν> 2$), this confirms previous observation of $\mathbb{E}(L_{n}) \sim \sqrt{n}\ln{n}$ to leading order. We note that this asymptotic behavior (including the subleading term) resembles that of the largest part of random integer partitions under the uniform measure and that, curiously, both random variables seem to follow Gumbel statistics. We also provide more refined estimates for the asymptotic behavior of $\mathbb{E}(L_{n})$ for random walks with step increments of finite variance.

description: To counteract competitive pressure, increasing customer requirements and growing product complexity successful distributed collaboration in product development is vital. Companies have to face new challenges, such as efficiency losses in communication. To overcome these challenges agile working practices, such as agile retrospectives, could be beneficial. The objective of this scientific work is to evaluate the benefit of agile working practices on the example of agile retrospectives, for the improvement of collaboration in distributed development teams. Based on literature analysis, qualitative and quantitative expert interviews following the DRM by Blessing and Chakrabarti, this scientific work shows that agile working practices have a high potential to improve distributed collaboration. To address this potential, several virtual agile retrospectives are developed and conducted within a distributed team at Bosch Engineering GmbH. The evaluation of this approach results in a high potential of agile retrospectives indicating an improvement tendency. Especially iteratively implemented virtual agile retrospectives have a positive impact on successful distributed collaboration.

description: Since the invention of the solid-state transistor, the overwhelming majority of computers followed the von Neumann architecture that strictly separates logic operations and memory. Today, there is a revived interest in alternative computation models accompanied by the necessity to develop corresponding hardware architectures. The Ising machine, for example, is a variant of the celebrated Hopfield network based on the Ising model. It can be realized with artifcial spins such as the `parametron' that arises in driven nonlinear resonators. The parametron encodes binary information in the phase state of its oscillation. It enables, in principle, logic operations without energy transfer and the corresponding speed limitations. In this work, we experimentally demonstrate flipping of parametron phase states on a timescale of an oscillation period, much faster than the ringdown time τthat is often (erroneously) deemed a fundamental limit for resonator operations. Our work establishes a new paradigm for resonator-based logic architectures.

Search for radiative b-hadron decays in proton-antiproton collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.8 TeV

Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Experiment (hep-ex)

description: We have performed a search for radiative b-hadron decays using events produced in proton-antiproton collisions at sqrt(s) = 1.8 TeV and collected by the Collider Detector at Fermilab. The decays we considered were B_d -> K*0(-> K+ pi-) gamma, B_s -> phi(-> K+ K-) gamma, Lambda_b -> Lambda(-> p pi-) gamma, and their charge conjugates. Two independent methods to identify photons from such decays were employed. In the first method, the photon was detected in the electromagnetic calorimeter. In the second method, the photon was identified by an electron-positron pair produced through the external photon conversion before the tracking detector volume. By combining the two methods we obtain upper limits on the branching fractions for the B_d, B_s and Lambda_b radiative decays, which, at the 95% confidence level, are found to be B(B_d -> K*0 gamma) < 1.4 x 10^(-4), B(B_s -> phi gamma) < 1.6 x 10^(-4), and B(Lambda_b -> Lambda gamma) < 1.9 x 10^(-3).

description: The rat is an important animal model in biomedical research, but gene targeting technology is not established for this species. Therefore, we aimed to produce transgenic knockdown rats using shRNA technology and pronuclear microinjection. To this purpose, we employed a tetracycline-inducible shRNA expression system targeting the insulin receptor (IR). Doxycycline (DOX) treatment of the resulting transgenic rats led to a dose-dependent and reversible increase in blood glucose caused by ubiquitous inhibition of IR expression and signalling. We could neither detect an interferon response nor disturbances in microRNA processing after DOX treatment excluding toxic effects of shRNA expression. Low dose DOX treatment induced a chronic state of diabetes mellitus. In conclusion, we have developed a technology which allows the specific, inducible, and reversible suppression of any gene of interest in the rat. Our first transgenic rat line generated with this method represents an inducible model for diabetes mellitus.

New decompositions of the superhamiltonian into block-diagonal form with elementary matrix components are constructed. Matrices of coefficients of these minimal blocks are shown to coincide with matrices of irreducible representations of permutations group S_N, which correspond to the Young tableaux (N-M,1^M). The connections with known generalizations of N-particle Calogero and Sutherland models are established.

description: Future in-vehicular networks will be based on Ethernet. The IEEE Time-Sensitive Networking (TSN) is a promising candidate to satisfy real-time requirements in future car communication. Software-Defined Networking (SDN) extends the Ethernet control plane with a programming option that can add much value to the resilience, security, and adaptivity of the automotive environment. In this work, we derive a first concept for combining Software-Defined Networking with Time-Sensitive Networking along with an initial evaluation. Our measurements are performed via a simulation that investigates whether an SDN architecture is suitable for time-critical applications in the car. Our findings indicate that the control overhead of SDN can be added without a delay penalty for the TSN traffic when protocols are mapped properly.

Equi-Energy sampling does not converge rapidly on the mean-field Potts model with three colors close to the critical temperature

description: Equi-Energy Sampling (EES, for short) is a method to speed up the convergence of the Metropolis chain, when the latter is slow. We show that there are still models like the mean-field Potts model, where EES does not converge rapidly in certain temperature regimes. Indeed we will show that EES is slowly mixing on the mean-field Potts model, in a regime below the critical temperature. Though we will concentrate on the Potts model with three colors, our arguments remain valid for any number of colors $q \ge 3$, if we adapt the temperature regime. For the situation of the mean-field Potts model this answers a question posed in \cite{HuaKou}.

Characterization of the singing voice from polyphonic recordings
Creators: Smit, Christine
Publisher: name: Columbia University
Year: 2011
Subjects: Electrical engineering

description: In order to study the singing voice, researchers have traditionally relied upon lab-based experiments and/or simplified models. Neither of these methods can reasonably be expected to always capture the essence of true performances in environmentally valid settings. Unfortunately, true performances are generally much more difficult to work with because they lack precisely the controls that lab setups and artificial models afford. In particular, true performances are generally polyphonic, making it much more difficult to analyze individual voices than if the voices can be studied in isolation. This thesis approaches the problem of polyphony head on, using a time-aligned electronic score to guide estimation of the vocal line characteristics. First, the exact fundamental frequency track for the voice is estimated using the score notes as guides. Next, the harmonic strengths are estimated using the fundamental frequency information. Third, estimates in notes are automatically validated or discarded based on characteristics of the frequency tracks. Lastly, good harmonic estimates are smoothed across time in order to improve the harmonic strength estimates. These final harmonic estimates, along with the fundamental frequency track estimates, parameterize the essential characteristics of what we hear singers' voices. To explore the potential power of this parameterization, the algorithms are applied to a real data consisting of five sopranos singing six arias. Vowel modification and evidence for the singer's formant are explored.

description: Efforts to make research results open and reproducible are increasingly reflected by journal policies encouraging or mandating authors to provide data availability statements. As a consequence of this, there has been a strong uptake of data availability statements in recent literature. Nevertheless, it is still unclear what proportion of these statements actually contain well-formed links to data, for example via a URL or permanent identifier, and if there is an added value in providing such links. We consider 531,889 journal articles published by PLOS and BMC, develop an automatic system for labelling their data availability statements according to four categories based on their content and the type of data availability they display, and finally analyze the citation advantage of different statement categories via regression. We find that, following mandated publisher policies, data availability statements become very common. In 2018 93.7% of 21,793 PLOS articles and 88.2% of 31,956 BMC articles had data availability statements. Data availability statements containing a link to data in a repository -- rather than being available on request or included as supporting information files -- are a fraction of the total. In 2017 and 2018, 20.8% of PLOS publications and 12.2% of BMC publications provided DAS containing a link to data in a repository. We also find an association between articles that include statements that link to data in a repository and up to 25.36% ($\pm$~1.07%) higher citation impact on average, using a citation prediction model. We discuss the potential implications of these results for authors (researchers) and journal publishers who make the effort of sharing their data in repositories. All our data and code are made available in order to reproduce and extend our results.
Inclusive jet cross sections in the Breit frame in neutral current deep inelastic scattering at HERA and determination of alpha_s

description: Inclusive jet differential cross sections have been measured in neutral current deep inelastic e+p scattering for boson virtualities Q**2>125 GeV**2. The data were taken using the ZEUS detector at HERA and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 38.6 pb-1. Jets were identified in the Breit frame using the longitudinally invariant K_T cluster algorithm. Measurements of differential inclusive jet cross sections are presented as functions of jet transverse energy (E_T,jet), jet pseudorapidity and Q**2, for jets with E_T,jet>8 GeV. Next-to-leading-order QCD calculations agree well with the measurements both at high Q**2 and high E_T,jet. The value of alpha_s(M_Z), determined from an analysis of dsigma/dQ**2 for Q**2>500 GeV**2, is alpha_s(M_Z) = 0.1212 +/- 0.0017 (stat.) +0.0023 / -0.0031 (syst.) +0.0028 / -0.0027 (th.).

description: Atherosclerosis, the primary cause of heart attack, stroke, and peripheral vascular disease, is genetically complex and the genes that confer cardiovascular risk remain largely unknown. Attempts to map common atherosclerosis susceptibility loci in humans have resulted in limited success. Mouse models provide an excellent tool for dissecting genetic complexity,and testing the role of candidate genes and pathways. While recent genome-wide association studies in humans have identified multiple genetic variants associated with atherosclerosis related traits- such as circulating lipid levels and hypertension- as well as myocardial infarction and stroke, few of the causal variants or underlying mechanisms are known. The work presented in this thesis identifies genetic loci contributing to atherosclerosis susceptibility in a murine model and, based on mechanistic data obtained in mouse, strongly suggests a mechanism underlying a coronary heart disease susceptibility locus on chromosome 9p21 identified by genome-wide association studies in humans. In this study we have used congenic mice that were previously constructed to isolate Athsq1, an atherosclerosis susceptibility locus identified in a cross between MOLF/Ei and C57BL/6J-Ldlr-/-. Atherosclerosis studies performed in congenic mice carrying the MOLF-derived susceptibility allele from chromosome 4, in the C57BL/6J-Ldlr-/- background, confirmed the existence of the Athsq1 locus and BM-derived cells were shown to play an important role. Refined mapping of the Athsq1 locus identified at least two susceptibility loci within the interval. A proximal locus was narrowed to a region containing 8-21 genes, including the region of homology with the human coronary heart disease risk interval on chromosome 9p21. Interestingly, mRNA expression analyses in macrophages revealed markedly decreased Cdkn2a transcript expression in cells derived from congenic mice compared to the controls. Cdkn2a is a candidate locus associated with the 9p21 locus in humans. The potential role of bone marrow -derived Cdkn2a expression in atherogenesis was tested using a bone marrow transplantation approach with Cdkn2a-deficient donor cells. Mice receiving Cdkn2a+/-deficient bone marrow exhibited accelerated atherosclerosis, increased inflammatory monocyte subsets and increased monocyte/macrophage proliferation compared to the controls. This study provides a mechanistic link between decreasedCdkn2aexpression, increased monocytes/macrophages proliferation with the expansion of an inflammatory monocyte subset and increased atherosclerosis. Together, these data illustrate the utilization of mouse models as tools to elucidate causal gene(s)/loci and potential pathophysiologicmechanisms underlying genome-wide association studies-identified loci for human disease.

description: The tunability of the interlayer coupling by twisting one layer with respect to another layer of two-dimensional materials provides a unique way to manipulate the phonons and related properties. We refer to this engineering of phononic properties as "Twistnonics". We study the effects of twisting on low-frequency shear (SM) and layer breathing (LBM) modes in transition metal dichalcogenide (TMD) bilayer using atomistic classical simulations. We show that these low-frequency modes are extremely sensitive to twist and can be used to infer the twist angle. We find unique "ultra-soft" phason modes (frequency $\lesssim 1\ \mathrm{cm^{-1}}$, comparable to acoustic modes) for any non-zero twist, corresponding to an \textit{effective} translation of the moir{é} lattice by relative displacement of the constituent layers in a non-trivial way. Unlike the acoustic modes, the velocity of the phason modes is quite sensitive to twist angle. As twist angle decreases, ($θ\lesssim 3^{\circ},\ \gtrsim 57^{\circ}$) the ultra-soft modes represent the acoustic modes of the "emergent" soft moir{é} scale lattice. Also, new high-frequency SMs appear, identical to those in stable bilayer TMD ($θ= 0\degree/60\degree$), due to the overwhelming growth of stable stacking regions in relaxed twisted structures. Furthermore, we find remarkably different structural relaxation as $θ\to 0^{\circ}$, $\to 60^{\circ}$ due to sub-lattice symmetry breaking. Our study reveals the possibility of an intriguing $θ$ dependent superlubric to pinning behavior and of the existence of ultra-soft modes in \textit{all} two-dimensional (2D) materials.

description: While differences in the production and acceptability of aspectual inflectional morphology between Spanish–English heritage and monolingually raised speakers of Spanish have been argued to support incomplete acquisition approaches to heritage language acquisition, other approaches have argued that differences in access (e.g., lexical access) to representations for receptive and productive purposes are at the core of some of the unique characteristics of heritage language data. We investigate these issues by focusing on the effects of lexical access, dominance, age of acquisition and patterns of language use in heritage Spanish–English bilinguals. We study aspectual se in Spanish, which yields telic interpretations, in expressions such as María se comió la manzana ‘María ate the apple (completely)’ and Maria ate the apple (where completion may not be reached). Our results indicate that se generates telic interpretations for the heritage and monolingually raised group with no group effect. Heritage speakers showed no English effects in terms of lexical access, age of acquisition, patterns of language use or dominance. This suggests that the heritage group did not differ from their monolingually raised counterparts and showed no evidence of incomplete acquisition of telicity.

description: Avian bornavirus (ABV) has been identified as the cause of proventricular dilatation disease in birds, but the virus is also found in healthy birds. Most studies of ABV have focused on captive birds. We investigated 86 free- ranging psittacine birds in Brazil and found evidence for natural, long-term ABV infection.

description: We show that a homotopy equivalence between manifolds induces a correspondence between their spin^c-structures, even in the presence of 2-torsion. This is proved by generalizing spin^c-structures to Poincare complexes. A procedure is given for explicitly computing the correspondence under reasonable hypotheses.

 Chrotogonus senegalensis Krauss, 1877: 144. Type femelle du Sénégal, Saint-Louis, au NHMW.
Iconographie: Lecoq, 1980: 536; Mestre, 1988: 47.
Espèce à tendance xérophile, largement répandue dans des milieux variés en Afrique occidentale et centre-occidentale jusqu’en Angola, souvent commune. Trois sous-espèces peu caractérisées ont été définies (Kevan 1959) essentiellement d’après la longueur des élytres, effectivement assez variable en rapport avec la localisation géographique, mais pas de façon nette. Les auteurs ultérieurs n’ont généralement pas retenu ces sous-espèces.
Cette espèce n’avait pas encore été signalée du Nimba bien qu’elle ait été recueillie déjà en quelques spécimens par M. Lamotte en 1946 et par Lamotte et Roy en juillet 1951 (à Ziéla). C’est en fait surtout à partir de 1981 qu’elle a été capturée en nombre, essentiellement sur le plateau de Zouguépo entre 700 et 750 m, en prairie sur cuirasse et en savane basse, jusqu’aux abords des bâtiments de la cité 1 et aussi en lisière de la forêt-galerie du Zougué. Quelques exemplaires également à signaler en savane et en bordure de marais près de Gbakoré.
L’essentiel des captures a été fait en février-mars 1981, époque où des jeunes à l’avant-dernier et surtout au dernier stade côtoyaient des adultes encore plus nombreux, la plus forte proportion des juvéniles femelles indiquant une émergence plus précoce des mâles adultes.
La longueur des élytres des adultes est plutôt variable, mais toutefois relativement courte, n’atteignant habituellement pas l’extrémité de l’abdomen; seul un mâle du plateau de Zouguépo a les élytres un peu plus longs.
Au total une espèce sédentaire, ne volant pas, peu fréquente au Nimba, mais pouvant y être localement commune, dans des milieux relativement ouverts, à des altitudes ne dépassant pas 750 m.

title: Why do Youth Intend to Defend Against Bullying?: The Roles of Compassion, Empathic Distress and Anger, and Social Costs

description: Bullying remains a significant social problem that is associated with social and mental health problems for children and youth involved. Continued attention from research is therefore critical to improve interventions that will reduce and prevent bullying among peers. Importantly, most acts of bullying are witnessed by others and these bystanders can play a critical role in stopping and preventing bullying by intervening using prosocial strategies that facilitate peaceful conflict resolution and positive outcomes for all involved. Yet, defending may be costly and most bystanders remain passive observers of face-to-face and online bullying, taking no action to defend. Also, rather than using prosocial defending strategies, some bystanders use aggressive defending by targeting those who perpetrate the bullying, which increases the risk of further aggression. Guided by theory and research on youth and adult prosocial behaviour (e.g., Batson et al., 1987; Eisenberg et al., 1989, 2010; Hoffman, 2001; Decety & Lamm, 2009; Singer & Klimecki, 2014; Stevens & Taber, 2021), the overarching aim of this research was to identify the unique role of compassion, separate from empathic distress, empathic anger, and perceived social costs, in youth's defending intentions after witnessing peer bullying.

description: Dark matter dominates the properties of large cosmological structures such as galaxy clusters, and the mass profiles of the dark matter have been measured for these equilibrated structures for years using X-rays, lensing or galaxy velocities. A new method has been proposed, which should allow us to estimate a dynamical property of the dark matter, namely the velocity anisotropy. For the gas a similar velocity anisotropy is zero due to frequent collisions, however, the collisionless nature of dark matter allows it to be non-trivial. Numerical simulations have for years found non-zero and radially varying dark matter velocity anisotropies. Here we employ the method proposed by Hansen and Pifaretti (2007), and developed by Host et al. (2009) to estimate the dark matter velocity anisotropy in the bright galaxy cluster Perseus, to near 5 times the radii previously obtained. We find the dark matter velocity anisotropy to be consistent with the results of numerical simulations, however, still with large error-bars. At half the virial radius we find the velocity anisotropy to be non-zero at 1.7 standard deviations, lending support to the collisionless nature of dark matter.
