Shadow Area and Degrees of Freedom for Free-Space Communication

The number of degrees of freedom (NDoF) in a communication channel fundamentally limits the number of independent spatial modes available for transmitting and receiving information. Although the NDoF can be computed numerically for specific configurations using singular value decomposition (SVD) of the channel operator, this approach provides limited physical insight. In this paper, we introduce a

B800→B850 energy transfer mechanism in bacterial LH2 complexes investigated by B800 pigment exchange

Femtosecond transient absorption measurements were performed on native and a series of reconstituted LH2 complexes from Rhodopseudomonas acidophila 10050 at room temperature. The reconstituted complexes contain chemically modified tetrapyrrole pigments in place of the native bacteriochlorophyll a-B800 molecules. The spectral characteristics of the modified pigments vary significantly, such that

Boron isotopes trace an increase in subduction-driven recycling of fluid-mobile elements in the Neoarchean

The deep recycling of surface material into Earth’s mantle is an integral process governing global water and fluid-mobile element cycles. This recycling is largely predicated on subduction operating efficiently, which may not apply for the first two billion years of Earth’s history. Tracing the initiation and evolution of the modern deep fluid-mobile element cycle requires determining when the man

Managing coastal aquifer salinity risks : Strategies for balance, recharge, and crop adaptation

The aim of this study was to assess aquifer salinity risk by identifying high-risk land-use zones and proposing a new paradigm for groundwater resource management under salinization pressure. Salinity risk modeling was conducted with consideration of land-use patterns and agricultural production in the study region. The results revealed that approximately 26% of the aquifer lies within high-risk s

SLC45A4 is a pain gene encoding a neuronal polyamine transporter

Polyamines are regulatory metabolites with key roles in transcription, translation, cell signalling and autophagy1. They are implicated in multiple neurological disorders, including stroke, epilepsy and neurodegeneration, and can regulate neuronal excitability through interactions with ion channels2. Polyamines have been linked to pain, showing altered levels in human persistent pain states and mo

Glucose receptor deletion and engineering : Impact on xylose sensing and utilization in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Unlike glucose, the sub-optimal xylose utilization in recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae strains may stem from an unusual signaling response that is not adapted to detecting xylose as a fermentable substrate. We hypothesize that the membrane receptor Snf3p, known for sensing extracellular low glucose levels, may contribute to xylose recognition. To test this, we explored the effect of SNF3 inact

Screening Tool Improves Recognition of Movement Disorders by Internists and Paediatricians in Patients With Inherited Metabolic Diseases

Movement disorders are common in inherited metabolic diseases (IMDs) and significantly impact quality of life. Unfortunately, they are often underrecognised by metabolic physicians. This study investigated whether a new screening tool improves recognition of movement disorders in IMD patients by non-neurologists. Internists and paediatricians specialized in IMDs assessed videos of 44 IMD patients

A left inverse approach to sharp Sobolev inequalities

The thesis is devoted to sharp embeddings from Soblolev spaces into Lebesque spaces in one dimension. The paper included in the thesis concerns the embedding from Sobolev spaces of functions that have square integrable derivatives of integer order k into the space of Lebesgue integrable functions (p=1). The main result is the sharp constant and the explicit extremal functions given by the Landau k

3D Integration Technology and Near-Memory Computing for Edge AI

In the era of artificial intelligence of things (AIoT), distributed processing on local devices is growing in popularity. This stems from the need to reduce data transfer to and from central servers, with concerns about privacy and latency encouraging the processing of AI applications on edge devices. However, the computational demands of these applications require an increase in the processing ca

A sharp higher order Sobolev embedding

We obtain sharp embeddings from the Sobolev space (Formula presented.) into the space (Formula presented.) and determine the extremal functions. This improves on a previous estimate of the sharp constants of these embeddings due to Kalyabin.

Leveraging AI Technology to Facilitate Innovation Management at System-of-Systems Level from Second-Order Science : A Study Based on VSM and Reflexivity Theory

The recognized importance of systemic and dynamic perspectives on both AI and innovation management calls for the retheorization to support the AI technology adoption in innovation management. As extant knowledge about a systems approach to realize dynamic roles of both augmentation and automation of AI-human collaboration in innovation management is limited, this study aims to explore how to leve

Policy mix for decarbonization of the transport sector

This chapter explores the evolution and effectiveness of Sweden's climate policy mix for decarbonizing the transport sector—a major contributor to national greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Despite early leadership in climate policy, Sweden faces challenges in aligning policy implementation with ambitious goals, such as a 70 % reduction in transport emissions by 2030. The chapter shows that Sweden's

Readiness for the leap : Hunter mode in anorexia nervosa

The purpose of the present paper is to describe and discuss the concept of hunter mode, as introduced by Meidell (2022) in her autobiographical description of anorexia nervosa. Hunter mode is a sought-after state that is reached through self-starvation and that transforms a person’s experiences into a crystal-clearperception and a sense of vitality.

Combined Evidence Reveals the Origin of a Rapid Range Expansion Despite Retained Genetic Diversity and a Weak Founder Effect

Many species are currently experiencing range shifts in response to changing environmental conditions with potentially serious genetic consequences. Repeated founder events and strong genetic drift are expected to erode genetic variation at the range front, reducing adaptive potential and slowing or even halting the expansion. However, the severity of these consequences for common and highly mobil
