Commentary: Dogs and the classic route of Guinea Worm transmission: an evaluation of copepod ingestion

2020

Dracunculus medinensis, the causative agent of Guinea worm disease in humans, is being reported with increasing frequency in dogs. However, the route(s) of transmission to dogs is still poorly understood. Classical transmission to humans occurs via drinking water that contains cyclopoid copepods infected with third stage larvae of D. medinensis, but due to the method of dog drinking (lapping) compared to humans (suction and/or retrieval of water into containers), it seems unlikely that dogs would ingest copepods readily through drinking. We exposed lab raised beagles to varying densities of uninfected copepods in 2 liters of water to evaluate the number of copepods ingested during a drinkin…

Enhanced effects of variation of the fundamental constants in laser interferometers and application to dark matter detection

2015

We outline new laser interferometer measurements to search for variation of the electromagnetic fine-structure constant $\alpha$ and particle masses (including a non-zero photon mass). We propose a strontium optical lattice clock -- silicon single-crystal cavity interferometer as a novel small-scale platform for these new measurements. Multiple passages of a light beam inside an interferometer enhance the effects due to variation of the fundamental constants by the mean number of passages ($N_{\textrm{eff}} \sim 10^2$ for a large-scale gravitational-wave detector, such as LIGO, Virgo, GEO600 or TAMA300, while $N_{\textrm{eff}} \sim 10^5$ for a strontium clock -- silicon cavity interferomete…

Robust non-Markovianity in ultracold gases

2012

We study the effect of thermal fluctuations on a probe qubit interacting with a Bose-Einstein condensed (BEC) reservoir. The zero-temperature case was studied in [Haikka P et al 2011 Phys. Rev. A 84 031602], where we proposed a method to probe the effects of dimensionality and scattering length of a BEC based on its behavior as an environment. Here we show that the sensitivity of the probe qubit is remarkably robust against thermal noise. We give an intuitive explanation for the thermal resilience, showing that it is due to the unique choice of the probe qubit architecture of our model.

The AD and ELENA orbit, trajectory and intensity measurement systems

2017

This paper describes the new Antiproton Decelerator (AD) orbit measurement system and the Extra Low ENergy Antiproton ring (ELENA) orbit, trajectory and intensity measurement system. The AD machine at European Organization for Nuclear Research (CERN) is presently being used to decelerate antiprotons from 3.57 GeV/c to 100 MeV/c for matter vs anti-matter comparative studies. The ELENA machine, presently under commissioning, has been designed to provide an extra deceleration stage down to 13.7 MeV/c. The AD orbit system is based on 32 horizontal and 27 vertical electrostatic Beam Position Monitor (BPM) fitted with existing low noise front-end amplifiers while the ELENA system consists of 24 \…

Development and Long-Term Follow-Up of an Experimental Model of Myocardial Infarction in Rabbits

2020

Simple Summary Ischemic heart disease is one of the leading causes of death. A series of processes occur during acute myocardial infarction that contribute to the development of ventricular dysfunction, with subsequent heart failure and ventricular arrhythmias, which account for most episodes of sudden cardiac death in these patients. These complications are associated with the adverse cardiac remodeling that occurs during the healing process following an acute episode. The remodeling causes the appearance of a substrate that can trigger life-threatening arrhythmias, such as tachycardia and/or ventricular fibrillation. The development of experimental models for analyzing the basic mechanism…

Par cilvēcisko lietu nepastāvību

1598

Teoloģiski ētiskais, vēsturiskais traktāts “Par cilvēcisko lietu nepastāvību” iesākas ar veltījumu dažādiem Rīgas rātskungiem. Par savstarpējo apmaiņu ar laipnībām var uzskatīt Dāvida Hilhena vēstuli grāmatas autoram un savukārt Georga Cīglera sacerēto dzeju par godu D. Hilhenam. G. Cīglers nopublicējis savā grāmatā arī Rostokas zinātnieka, vēsturnieka Dāvida Hitreja vēstuli autoram. Hitrejs raksta, ka neraugoties uz redzes problēmām, esot iepazinies ar G. Cīglera grāmatu (grāmata iznāca 1598 un 1599 gadā). Pazemīgie veltījumi ietekmīgām personām ieviesās arī tāpēc, ka sacerētāji tādējādi kompensēja trūkstošo autora honorāru, jo bagātie patricieši parasti parādā nepalika. Eksemplāriem atšķi…
