Multiresonant Coherent Multidimensional Spectroscopy

Multiresonant coherent multidimensional spectroscopy is a frequency-domain method that uses tunable excitation pulses to excite multiple quantum coherences (MQCs) and/or state populations using fully coherent or partially coherent excitation pathways. Pairs of states that are coupled by intra- and intermolecular interactions re-emit light at their frequency differences. The MQCs are coherent and interfere constructively to create phase-matched output beams. Scanning the excitation frequencies with fixed-excitation-pulse time delays creates multidimensional spectra, whereas scanning the time delays with fixed excitation frequencies measures the MQCs’ coherent and incoherent dynamics. Multiresonant methods can excite any combination of vibrational and/or electronic states and use any coherence pathway. Cross-peaks occur between states when the excitation of one perturbs the other. This requirement for coupling acts to eliminate spectral congestion. Spectral resolution is increased because multiresonant methods narrow inhomogeneous broadening, enhance peaks from specific components, and spread the resolution over multiple dimensions.

Authenticity as Survival Strategy: The Immigrant Experience of Japanese Chef on Identities and Food

&lt;p&gt;Japanese chefs, as a small group of highly skilled foreign trained professionals, can be viewed as one of relatively privileged minorities in the Canadian multicultural context. However, being "privileged" immigrants does not mean they do not experience settlement challenges and disadvantages derived from their minority status in Canada. This paper delves into their specific challenges and the strategies they utilize to navigate their lives in Toronto, Canada. This study employs the phenomenological approach to illuminate individual experiences by examining how the Japanese culinary scene in Toronto is perceived by a sample of Japanese chefs and Japanese food business owners. Through narrative interviews, I aim to better understand the participants' subjective interpretations of what authenticity in the Japanese food scene is Toronto and how this intersects with their personal sense of cultural identity.&lt;/p&gt;

Beam Forming Network for a Multibeam Antenna at 20 GHz

A multibeam antenna, which generates 115 Area Beams for European Continuous Coverage and 12 City Beams to cover 12 main ground stations, has been defined. Area and City Beams are generated by the same array of feeds and are isolated through polarization discrimination. On both, frequency reuse, through spatial separation, is applied. Furthermore, the central ground station provides a 27 GHz beacon signal for RF Sensing. For the isolation objectives (30dB) achievement, each City Beam is generated by a cluster of seven feed elements, part of which is shared between two adjacent beams. The feeding of the cluster and the sharing are performed by a Beam Forming Network (B.F.N.), in rectangular waveguide. The paper describes the B.F.N. components and their computed electrical performance, compared with the results measured on a partial B.F.N. breadboard. A good agreement and a flat behaviour of the B.F.N., in more of 10% bandwidth, is shown.

Exploring the Chinese Import Policy on the Low-technology Manufactures of Garment, Textile and Footwear

Using annual trade data from 1987 to 2016, this study focuses on the Chinese import trade patterns in garment, textile and footwear. We employ the indicators of net exports and revealed symmetric comparative advantage to generate H index to assess the divergence of the import policy. Our findings imply that 1) China has been comparative dis-advantageous in the imports of the low-technology garment, textile and footwear, and 2) the Chinese trade policy has been persistently restrictive towards the imports of the products. We document that the Chinese government may restrict the imports to improve the domestic employment.

in tropical agricultural environments

Id this work, soil (o plant transfer factor of 226 Ra and ZB Ra obtained in areas of traditional agncuhural practices varied as a function of the considered cultivated species, but little variation was observed as a function of the soil type. Beans and soybeans presented a more important absorption than cereals (com, rice and wheat). Values of transfer factor of the legumes (beans and soybeans) were about an order of magnitude greater than the average obtained in areas of high natural radioactivity, while the results for the cereals did not presented such clear differences. Cultural inputs of 226 Ra and 2Z8 Ra are occurring in agricultural areas, but few species can demonstrate it. Soil to plant transfer factor values for 226 Ra and 228 Ra, obtained in agricultural areas seem more applicable in models of risk evaluation

Does good corporate governance lead to better firm performance? Strategic lessons from a structured literature review

The objective of this paper is to disclose proven relationships between good corporate governance variables and the financial and/or non-financial performance of companies based on a meta-analysis of relevant studies. A meta-analysis was performed by means of academic research published between 2006 and 2016 in the five highest-ranked academic journals according to the Association of Business Schools (ABS) ranking. The relevant academic studies were selected on the basis of the relationship between corporate governance and performance. Our study provides evidence for the correlation between five corporate governance variables (board independence, board diversity, CEO characteristics, remuneration and oversight) and company performance. Furthermore, several mediating and moderating factors influencing the relationship between corporate governance variables and company performance were identified in this meta-study. The overview of corporate governance variables and their relation to company performance serves as input for a better understanding of this relationship and subsequently the ongoing dialogue on enhancing corporate governance in practice.

Secure Scheme of Data Protection in Cloud Computing

Cloud Computing is the sum of SaaS and Utility Computing. This paradigm also brings forth many new challenges for data security and access control mechanisms, when users outsource sensitive data for sharing on Cloud systems, which are not within the same trusted domain as data owners. Storing data on untrusted storage makes secure data sharing a challenge issue. To keep sensitive user data confidential against untrusted Cloud systems, on one hand, data access policies should be enforced on these storage servers; on the other hand, confidentiality of sensitive data should be well protected against them. The existing solutions usually apply cryptographic methods by disclosing data decryption keys only to authorized users. However, in doing so, these solutions inevitably introduce a heavy computation overhead on the data owner for key distribution and data management when fine-grained data access control is desired, and thus do not scale well. The main challenges for cryptographic methods include simultaneously achieving system scalability and fine-grained data access control, efficient key or user management, user accountability, data security, computational overhead and etc. To address these challenge issues, in this paper we defined and enforcing access policies based on data attributes and enabling the data owner to delegate most computation-intensive tasks pertained to user revocation to untrusted servers without disclosing data content to them. We achieve this goal by exploiting and uniquely combining techniques of Ciphertext policy attribute based encryption system and proxy re-encryption and re-encryption. Our proposed scheme also has salient features of user access privilege confidentiality and user secret key accountability.

Digital Twin Based Design and Experimental Validation of a Continuous Peptide Polishing Step

Optimizing or debottlenecking existing production plants is a challenging task. In this case study, an existing reversed phased chromatography polishing step for peptide purification was optimized with the help of a digital twin. The existing batch chromatography was depicted digitally with the general rate model. Model parameter determination and model validation was done with dedicated experiments. The digital twin was then used to identify optimized process variants, especially continuous chromatography steps. MCSGP was found to achieve high purities and yield but at the cost of productivity due to column synchronization. An alternative Continuous Twin Column chromatography process (CTCC) was established that eliminates unnecessary waiting times. Ensuring the same or higher purity compared to the batch process, the continuous process achieved a yield increase of 31% and productivity increase of 27.6%. Experimental long runs confirmed these results.

Antimicrobial Activity of Moringa oleifera, Aloe vera and Warbugia ugandensis on Multi-Drug Resistant Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus

Multi-drug resistant is a global public health concern. There has been an increase in infections caused by multidrug resistant micro-organisms in Sub Saharan Africa. This has led to extended illness, expensive health care and deaths. This experimental study was aimed to determine the anti-microbial activity of aqueous and methanol leaf extracts of Warbugia ugandensis, Moringa oleifera and Aloe vera on standard bacteria and multi-drug resistant clinical isolates of Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli. Tetracycline drug was used as the reference drug. The bacteria were treated with extracts at different concentrations to determine the zones of inhibition through Agar Diffusion Assay, minimum inhibitory concentration and minimum bactericidal concentration assays. Raw data was analyzed using one-way and two-way analysis of variance followed by Tukey’s post hoc test. Zones of inhibition ranged from 6.5 mm to 9.98 mm on the multi-drug resistant isolates, while those of the standard bacteria ranged from 6.5 mm to 12.00 mm. Methanol extracts of W. ugandensis, M. oleifera and A. vera at the concentration of 400 mg/ml had higher zones of inhibition against multi-drug resistant S. aureus, P. aeruginosa and E. coli respectively. The antimicrobial activity of the extracts indicated a concentration-dependent response. The minimum bactericidal concentration values obtained were double the minimum inhibitory concentration values. Methanol extracts recorded lower minimum inhibitory and minimum bactericidal concentrations compared to aqueous extracts. Phytochemicals which were present, included alkaloids, cardenolide glycosides, phenols, flavonoids, coumarins, tannins, saponins and anthracin glycosides. These phytochemicals are associated with antimicrobial activities. This study showed potent antimicrobial activities of methanol and aqueous extracts of W. ugandensis, M. oleifera and A. vera against the multi-drug resistant and standard bacteria tested. The extracts, therefore, may be used to develop alternative therapeutics in the management of multi-drug resistant Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphylococcus aureus, and Escherichia coli.

Abstract Although most polistine wasp species are found in the Neotropical region, mainly in B razil, only a very limited number of S outh A merican parasitoids or parasites are known to exist. We assessed the frequency of a hymenopterous parasitoid, P achysomoides sp. (Ichneumonidae, C ryptinae), in the nests of the B razilian independent‐founding wasp P olistes satan and compared the rates of the parasitization of P . satan by P achysomoides sp. between the dry (winter) and wet (summer) seasons. P achysomoides sp. larvae were seen to feed on P . satan pupa and were found in both the upper and lower parts of the host pupal cell (ca. 10 individuals in each host pupal cell). Approximately one‐third of the pupal cells in the P . satan colonies were parasitized in the dry season, whereas there were no parasitized pupal cells in the wet season. Consequently, the rates of parasitization by P achysomoides sp. were significantly greater during the dry season than during the wet season due to unknown reasons.

Anomaly Detection for Satellite Telemetry Series with Prediction Interval Optimization

Anomaly detection is an essential task enabling condition-based maintenance (CBM), fault diagnostics and system prognostics of complex satellite systems. With the advantages of requiring no labels and strong online detecting performance, some prognostics methods have been applied to detect anomalies among satellite telemetry series. Especially, the probability prediction models, e.g., Gaussian Process Regression and Relevance Vector Machine, are more suitable to identify these discords with the ability of providing uncertainty presentation. However, the prediction interval (PI) is derived by the optimization on the prediction-related index which is not constructed for the application of anomaly detection, and its performance will be discounted in this case. Thus, this paper introduces the detection-related index, i.e., coverage-width-based criterion (CWC), to optimize the model parameters which focus on the width of PI, as well as the coverage probability of PI. And the experiments on different types of telemetry series validate the improvement of our proposed framework on PI. Finally, the experiment on actual satellite telemetry series with abnormal points validate the effectiveness and applicability of our proposed method.

When ivory came from the seas. On some traits of the trade of raw and carved sea-mammal ivories in the Middle Ages

Even if it played a part, it is not so much the lesser availability of elephant ivory as the Norse expansion in the Northern Atlantic that brought the success of walrus ivory throughout Western Europe and far beyond. The strength of demand did not only bring the extinction of the species in Iceland, but it was also, most probably, one of the main drivers of the sustained Norse settlement of Greenland. Maybe for the first time, at least for such an important luxury production, the division between the places the commodity was gathered and those it was processed is complete. The main workshops were in Norway, mostly in Trondheim, but also in Germany, in England, long after the end of the Danelaw, and even in France and in Castila. Raw tusks were traded, but also carved ivories, which sometimes went back to the initial collection point. Another ivory exported from the Arctic seas, narwhal teeth are even more problematic. The Greenland Norse probably never were in contact with the live sea mammal, but would find its inidentifiable body, or fragments of it, on the shore, after the animals had been eaten by killer whales.

[Impact of cytomegalovirus infection on the course of tuberculosis in children and adolescents].

Sixty-five children and adolescents with respiratory tuberculosis were examined to determine the proportion of cytomegalovirus infection among patients with tuberculosis and its impact on the occurrence and course of different forms of tuberculosis. The number of children and adolescents infected with cytomegalovirus among the patients with respiratory tuberculosis (66.2%) was found to be three times more than that among those not infected with tuberculosis (21.0). The absolute majority (91.3%) of the examinees with the complicated course of a tuberculous process were carriers of cytomegalovirus. They were found to have both antigens and antibodies to cytomegalovirus 9 times more frequently than patients with the smooth course of tuberculosis, which is indicative of the activity of cytomegalovirus infection. The findings suggest that cytomegalovirus infection has an impact on the occurrence and pattern of a tuberculous process.
