description: The rate of tidal disruption events (TDEs) can vary by orders of magnitude depending on the environment and the mechanism that launches the stars towards the black hole's vicinity. For the largest rates, two disruptions can take place shortly one after the other in a double TDE. In this case, the two debris streams may collide with each other before falling back to the black hole resulting in an electromagnetic emission that is absent from single TDEs. We analytically evaluate the conditions for this streams collision to occur. It requires that the difference in pericenter location between the two disruptions makes up for the time delay between them. In addition, the width of the streams must compensate for the vertical offset induced by the inclination of their orbital planes. If the double TDE happens following the tidal separation of a binary, we find that the streams can collide with a probability as high as $44\%$. We validate our analytical conditions for streams collision through hydrodynamical simulations and find that the associated shocks heat the gas significantly. If photons are able to rapidly escape, a burst of radiation ensues lasting a few days with a luminosity $\sim 10^{43}\, \rm erg\, s^{-1}$, most likely in the optical band. This signal represents a precursor to the main flare of TDEs that could in particular be exploited to determine the efficiency of disc formation from the stellar debris.

description: Desde la década de los ochenta del siglo anterior, Colombia ha empleado esfuerzos para lograr mayores niveles de descentralización fiscal. Estos esfuerzos se centraron en los municipios, inicialmente, y luego, con la expedición de la Constitución de 1991, se orientaron también, y con mayor protagonismo, a los departamentos (Falleti, 2010). A pesar de estos esfuerzos, la descentralización fiscal de municipios y departamentos del país es todavía, en la mayoría de los casos, una promesa por cumplir. Salvo el caso de algunos departamentos y ciudades de gran tamaño, la mayoría de las entidades territoriales son altamente dependientes de los recursos provenientes del Gobierno nacional (Bonet-Morón et al., 2018). Además, en las últimas décadas, hemos asistido a un proceso de recentralización que hace pensar que una mayor descentralización fiscal todavía parezca lejana (Murcia, 2017).

description: This paper deals with the design of the secure blockchain network framework to prevent damages from an attacker. The decentralized network design called the Blockchain Governance Game is a new hybrid theoretical model and it provides the stochastic game framework to find best strategies towards preparation for preventing a network malfunction by an attacker. Analytically tractable results are obtained by using the fluctuation theory and the mixed strategy game theory. These results enable to predict the moment for operations and deliver the optimal portion of backup nodes to protect the blockchain network. This research helps for whom considers the initial coin offering or launching new blockchain based services with enhancing the security features.

description: Henry G. La Brie's 1971 interview with Doris Wooten Wesley begins with an overview of the narrator's education and professional experience. Next, La Brie asks how the social role of the black press has changed over the decades preceding the interview, what types of information readers want in newspaper stories, and the differences between the black and white press. The interview turns to the successes of the black press over the years. Next, they discuss the political role of the black press and how it reflects the needs of the African American community. Wesley describes the challenges facing black newspapers and tries to predict their future. La Brie asks about ownership of black newspapers, advertising in the black press, and white readership of the black media. Next, Wesley recounts her first experiences with the black press and opines on the importance of the various sections of a newspaper. They discuss the need for a national black news service; the scope of black newspapers (i.e., local, national, or international); and about the sensationalism of the black press. After La Brie asks if the black press is worth studying, the interview concludes with a discussion of how the white press has become more fair in covering minority issues since the Kerner Commission report.

description: The running coupling constants (in particular, the gravitational one) are studied in asymptotically free GUTs and in finite GUTs in curved spacetime, with explicit examples. The running gravitational coupling is used to calculate the leading quantum GUT corrections to the Newtonian potential, which turn out to be of logarithmic form in asymptotically free GUTs. A comparison with the effective theory for the conformal factor ---where leading quantum corrections to the Newtonian potential are again logarithmic--- is made. A totally asymptotically free $O(N)$ GUT with quantum higher derivative gravity is then constructed, using the technique of introducing renormalization group (RG) potentials in the space of couplings. RG equations for the cosmological and gravitational couplings in this theory are derived, and solved numerically, showing the influence of higher-derivative quantum gravity on the Newtonian potential. The RG-improved effective gravitational Lagrangian for asymptotically free massive GUTs is calculated in the strong (almost constant) curvature regime, and the non-singular De Sitter solution to the quantum corrected gravitational equations is subsequently discussed. Finally, possible extensions of the results here obtained are briefly outlined.

description: In the presence of crossed electric and magnetic fields, a graphene ribbon has chiral states running along sample edges and along boundaries between p-doped and n-doped regions. We here consider the scattering of edge states into interface states, which takes place wherever the pn interface crosses the sample boundary, as well as the reverse process. For a graphene ribbon with armchair boundaries, the evolution of edge states into interface states and vice versa is governed by the conservation of valley isospin. Although valley isospin is not conserved in simplified models of a ribbon with zigzag boundaries, we find that arguments based on isospin conservation can be applied to a more realistic modeling of the graphene ribbon, which takes account of the lifting of electron-hole degeneracy. The valley isospin of interface states is an important factor determining the conductance of a graphene pn junction in a quantizing magnetic field.

description: The area law conjecture states that the entanglement entropy of a region of space in the ground state of a gapped, local Hamiltonian only grows like the surface area of the region. We show that, for any state that fulfills an area law, the reduced quantum state of a region of space can be unitarily compressed into a thickened boundary of the region. If the interior of the region is lost after this compression, the full quantum state can be recovered to high precision by a quantum channel only acting on the thickened boundary. The thickness of the boundary scales inversely proportional to the error for arbitrary spin systems and logarithmically with the error for quasifree bosonic systems. Our results can be interpreted as a single-shot operational interpretation of the area law. The result for spin systems follows from a simple inequality showing that any probability distribution with entropy S can be approximated to error ϵ by a distribution with support of size exp(S/ϵ), which we believe to be of independent interest. We also discuss an emergent approximate correspondence between bulk and boundary operators and the relation of our results to tensor network states.

description: Beam diagnostics is important to guarantee good quality of beam in particle accelerator. Both the electron and positron run in the tunnel in some modern electron positron colliders such as Circular Electron Positron Collider (CEPC) to be built and Beijing Electron Positron Collider II (BEPC II). To measure the electron and positron beams, picking up of these two different bunches in real time is of notable concern. Because the time interval between adjacent electron and positron bunches is quite small, for example, 6 ns in CEPC, high-speed switch electronics is required. This paper presents the prototype design of a high-speed radio frequency (RF) electronics that can pick up nanosecond positron-electron beam bunches with a switching time of less than 6 ns. Fast separation of electron and positron is achieved based on RF switches and precise delay adjustment of the controlling signals (~10 ps). Initial tests have been conducted in the laboratory to evaluate the performance of electronics, the results indicate that this circuit can successfully pick up the bunch signal within a time interval of 6 ns, which makes it possible to further measure the electron and position beams simultaneously.

description: We discuss a network of Kitaev wires coupled to several individually-tunable quantum dots as an extension of the recent experiments on a quantum dot coupled to a nanowire hosting Majorana zero modes [Deng et al. Science 354 1557 (2016) and Deng et al. arXiv:1712.03536 (2017)]. The setup features localized Majorana modes with exact zero energy and we show that they can be manipulated by solely acting on the quantum dots. A braiding process can be obtained by arranging three wires as a trijunction and a charge readout of the quantum dots can be used to reveal the non-Abelian statistics of Majorana zero modes. The setup can be scaled up to serve the more advanced purposes of topological quantum computation.

Geo-Recon found a small prehistoric lithic scatter here in 1980, consisting of quartz and quartzite flakes and chunks, and occasional biface fragments. They speculated that this site might be considered continuous with 18CH158, 159, and 160. 1993: MAAR found artifacts in 13 stps and along the beach here. Artifacts from the stps included 6 quartz flakes, 10 fire-cracked rock, and 8 oyster shells. On the beach were 46 quartz flakes, 3 quartz flakes, 2 jasper chunks, 12 firecracked rocks, 5 ceramic fragments, and 1 biface fragment. The ceramics add a Woodland component, but the pottery type was never identified: December 2000: Tetra Tech's Phase II involved pedestrian survey, 98 shovel tests (69 at 15m intervals and 29 5m radials), and four 1x2m test units. No features were encountered, and the 386 artifacts were mainly found in the plowzone. Diagnostic artifacts included 8 Towsend and Potomac Creek ceramic wares and 3 Savannah River Holmes variant points. Also recovered were 1 core or test cobble, 23 primary flakes, 81 secondary flakes, 50 tertiary flakes, 3 indeterminate flakes/flake fragments, 89 shatter, 123 fire-cracked rocks, and 3 possible burnt nutshell fragments.

title: The clinical development of an affordable orally inhaled combination product for the treatment of respiratory diseases
Creators: name: Allan, Richard James
Publisher: name: University of Reading
Year: 2020

description: Generic alternatives to orally inhaled products (OIPs) to treat respiratory diseases are 
challenging to develop clinically, due to uncertainty of what methodology could be used 
to demonstrate bioequivalence (BE) and the relevance of traditional methods of 
demonstrating BE.
OIPs assert their pharmacological effect directly in the lung and have minimal systemic 
absorption, thus it is necessary to test the effect of these drugs in the lung to 
demonstrate that a generic product is BE to the reference product; this is termed local 
therapeutic equivalence (LTE).
This thesis describes the identification and testing of a clinical development pathway to 
demonstrate BE for a generic form (Wixela™ Inhub™) of Advair® Diskus® to provide 
a more affordable inhaled corticosteroid/ long-acting β2-receptor agonist (ICS/LABA) 
to patients with respiratory diseases in the USA.
Two methodologies (FeNO and methacholine challenge) were assessed to determine 
whether they could be used to prove LTE; however, upon completion of these studies it 
was ascertained that neither were suitable. Therefore, there was no suitable 
pharmacodynamic method available to demonstrate LTE.
The method utilised to provide LTE was a large study in asthma patients using lung 
function as the endpoint, i.e., if FEV1 was the same between the test and reference 
products, the LTE would be proven. The lung function measures were bioequivalent 
and therefore, LTE for Wixela™ Inhub™ when compared to Advair® Diskus® was 
demonstrated. 
Additionally, pharmacokinetic (PK) BE was demonstrated, measuring 
fluticasone propionate (FP) and salmeterol concentrations in plasma at each available 
dose strength following dosing of Wixela™ Inhub™ or Advair® Diskus®.
The successful completion of the clinical development program means that the 
development of a generic ICS/LABA is viable clinically, because of the demonstration 
of BE in both plasma and the lung. Therefore, this should increase the availability of 
affordable, quality medicines for patients with respiratory diseases.
Radiative Contributions to the Effective Action of Self-Interacting Scalar Field on a Manifold with Boundary

Year: 2000
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)

description: The effect of quantum corrections to a conformally invariant field theory for a self-interacting scalar field on a curved manifold with boundary is considered. The analysis is most easily performed in a space of constant curvature the boundary of which is characterised by constant extrinsic curvature. An extension of the spherical formulation in the presence of a boundary is attained through use of the method of images. Contrary to the consolidated vanishing effect in maximally symmetric space-times the contribution of the massless "tadpole" diagram no longer vanishes in dimensional regularisation. As a result, conformal invariance is broken due to boundary-related vacuum contributions. The evaluation of one-loop contributions to the two-point function suggests an extension, in the presence of matter couplings, of the simultaneous volume and boundary renormalisation in the effective action.

description: Single-molecule experiments have found near-perfect thermodynamic efficiency in the rotary motor F1-ATP synthase. To help elucidate the principles underlying nonequilibrium energetic efficiency in such stochastic machines, we investigate driving protocols that minimize dissipation near equilibrium in a simple model rotary mechanochemical motor, as determined by a generalized friction coefficient. Our simple model has a periodic friction coefficient that peaks near system energy barriers. This implies a minimum-dissipation protocol that proceeds rapidly when the system is overwhelmingly in a single macrostate, but slows significantly near energy barriers, thereby harnessing thermal fluctuations to kick the system over energy barriers with minimal work input. This model also manifests a phenomenon not seen in otherwise similar non-periodic systems: sufficiently fast protocols can effectively lap the system. While this leads to a non-trivial tradeoff between accuracy of driving and energetic cost, we find that our designed protocols out-perform naive protocols.

description: The subject of the thesis is the examination of the phenomena behind the formulation and spatio-temporal evolution of anisotropic particle assemblies during drying processes. Two different drying processes have been investigated in this study, namely spray drying and contact drying. Following a literature review of the relevant processes – namely spray drying but also particle agglomeration and break-up, literature on the packing of non-spherical particles is reviewed. An investigation into the effect of particle shape, solubility, initial concentration and state (solution vs. slurry), and drying rate on the microstructure of particle assemblies within an evaporating droplet has been carried out. The materials used in the study were chosen so as to cover a range of solubility and crystal shape, and include: benzoic acid (needle shaped) and glass beads (spherical shape), monosodium glutamate (MSG), lactose, hydroxypropylmethylcellulose (HPMC), aspirin, sodium carbonate and water. The study of single droplet drying aims to provide a quantitative and qualitative view on the microstructure formation during drying. A new single droplet drying technique has been developed to allow for real-time observation of the microstructure and morphology evolution, and subsequently to determine whether the particle morphologies produced in single droplet drying are analogous to those produced by a spray dryer. The results produced in this study indicate that for the materials investigated, the end microstructural arrangement obtained by the single droplet technique will be essentially the same as that obtained in a spray dryer, and the single droplet method can therefore be used as an early indication of the most likely particle morphology. This has significance during process scale-up in the pharmaceutical industry and in other situations when only small quantities of a newly developed chemical entity are available but a decision about the process route has to be made at an early stage. The single droplet results have also allowed for the understanding of some drying mechanism behind the morphologies commonly produced in spray drying.

description: The description and detection of unconventional magnetic states such as spin liquids is a recurring topic in condensed matter physics. While much of the efforts have traditionally been directed at geometrically frustrated antiferromagnets, recent studies reveal that systems featuring competing antiferromagnetic and ferromagnetic interactions are also promising candidate materials. We find that this competition leads to the notion of special temperatures, analogous to those of gases, at which the competing interactions balance, and the system is quasi-ideal. Although induced by weak perturbing interactions, these special temperatures are surprisingly high and constitute an accessible experimental diagnostic of eventual order or spin liquid properties. The well characterised Hamiltonian and extended low-temperature susceptibility measurement of the canonical frustrated ferromagnet Dy$_2$Ti$_2$O$_7$ enables us to formulate both a phenomenological and microscopic theory of special temperatures for magnets. Other members of this new class of magnets include kapellasite Cu$_3$Zn(OH)$_6$Cl$_2$ and the spinel GeCo$_2$O$_4$.

description: In this paper we study the hydrodynamic (small mass approximation) limit of a Fokker-Planck equation. This equation arises in the kinetic description of the evolution of a particle system immersed in a viscous Stokes flow. We discuss two different methods of hydrodynamic convergence. The first method works with initial data in a weighted L2 space and uses weak convergence and the extraction of convergent subsequences. The second uses entropic initial data and gives an L1 convergence to the solution of the limit problem via the study of the relative entropy.

description: The Hodgkin-Huxley model describes the behavior of the cell membrane in neurons, treating each part of it as an electric circuit element, namely capacitors, memristors, and voltage sources. We focus on the activation channel of potassium ions, due to its simplicity, while keeping most of the features displayed by the original model. This reduced version is essentially a classical memristor, a resistor whose resistance depends on the history of electric signals that have crossed it, coupled to a voltage source and a capacitor. Here, we will consider a quantized Hodgkin-Huxley model based on a quantum memristor formalism. We compare the behavior of the membrane voltage and the potassium channel conductance, when the circuit is subjected to AC sources, in both classical and quantum realms. Numerical simulations show an expected adaptation of the considered channel conductance depending on the signal history in all regimes. Remarkably, the computation of higher moments of the voltage manifest purely quantum features related to the circuit zero-point energy. Finally, we study the implementation of the Hodgkin-Huxley quantum memristor as an asymmetric rf SQUID in superconducting circuits. This study may allow the construction of quantum neuron networks inspired in the brain function, as well as the design of neuromorphic quantum architectures for quantum machine learning.

description: We display properties of the general formalism which associates to any given gauge symmetry a topological action and a system of topological BRST and anti-BRST equations. We emphasize the distinction between the antighosts of the geometrical BRST equations and the antighosts occuring in field theory. We propose a transmutation mechanism between these objects. We illustrate our general presentation by examples.

Segmentation of brain MRI during early childhood
Creators: name: Murgasova, Maria
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2008

description: The objective of this thesis is the development of automatic methods to measure the changes in volume and growth of brain structures in prematurely born infants. Automatic tools for accurate tissue quantification from magnetic resonance images can provide means for understanding how the neurodevelopmental effects of the premature birth, such as cognitive, neurological or behavioural impairment, are related to underlying changes in brain anatomy. Understanding these changes forms a basis for development of suitable treatments to improve the outcomes of premature birth. In this thesis we focus on the segmentation of brain structures from magnetic resonance images during early childhood. Most of the current brain segmentation techniques have been focused on the segmentation of adult or neonatal brains. As a result of rapid development, the brain anatomy during early childhood differs from anatomy of both adult and neonatal brains and therefore requires adaptations of available techniques to produce good results. To address the issue of anatomical differences of the brain during early childhood compared to other age-groups, population-specific deformable and probabilistic atlases are introduced. A method for generation of population-specific prior information in form of a probabilistic atlas is proposed and used to enhance existing segmentation algorithms. The evaluation of registration-based and intensity-based approaches shows the techniques to be complementary in the quality of automatic segmentation in different parts of the brain. We propose a novel robust segmentation method combining the advantages of both approaches. The method is based on multiple label propagation using B-spline non-rigid registration followed by EM segmentation. Intensity inhomogeneity is a shading artefact resulting from the acquisition process, which significantly affects modern high resolution MR data acquired at higher magnetic field strengths. A novel template based method focused on correcting the intensity inhomogeneity in data acquired at higher magnetic field strengths is therefore proposed. The proposed segmentation method combined with proposed intensity inhomogeneity correction method offers a robust tool for quantification of volumes and growth of brain structures during early childhood. The tool have been applied to 67 T1-weigted images of subject at one and two years of age.

Two-pion exchange and strong form-factors in covariant field theories

description: In this work improvements to the application of the Gross equation to nuclear systems are tested. In particular we evaluate the two pion exchange diagrams, including the crossed-box diagram, using models developed within the spectator-on-mass-shell covariant formalism. We found that the form factors used in these models induce spurious contributions that violate the unitary cut requirement. We tested then some alternative form-factors in order to preserve the unitarity condition. With this new choice, the difference between the exact and the spectator-on-mass-shell amplitudes is of the order of the one boson scalar exchange, supporting the idea that this difference may be parameterized by this type of terms.
