these cases, a single massive object ?10(5) M is formed in the center of the halo. On the other hand, in our simulations irradiated by a UV background of J(21) = 10, we see fragmentation and the formation of
various less massive seeds. These fragments have masses of 10(3)?10(4)
M. These values are still significant if we consider the potential
mergers between them and the fact that these minor objects are formed
earlier in cosmic time compared to the massive single seeds. Moreover,
in one of our simulations, we observe gas fragmentation even in the
presence of a strong UV intensity. This structure arises in a dark
matter halo that forms after various merger episodes, becoming the
structure with the highest spin value. The final black hole seed mass is
?10(5) M for this run. From these results, we conclude that
fragmentation produces less massive objects; however, they are still
prone to merge. In simulations that form many fragments, they all
approach the most massive one as the simulations evolve. We see no

treatment of diabetes. In this study, a library of over 2300 compounds
derived from 30 common herbs and spices were screened in silico with the

compounds from the herbs and spices library were observed to have
potential anti-diabetic activity and liquorice, hops, fennel, rosemary,

turmeric, carlinoside from lemongrass, cinnamtannin B1 from cinnamon,
crocin from saffron and glabridin from liquorice. The major targets
identified for the herbs and spices compounds were dipeptidyl

given plant could potentially regulate a particular protein target. It
was observed that through this multi-compound-multi target regulation of
these specific protein targets that the major anti-diabetic effects of
reduced hyperglycemia and hyperlipidemia of the herbs and spices could
be explained. The results of this study, taken together with the known

abstract = {The southern Peru and northern Chile coastal region is an active subduction zone that contains one of the most significant seismic gaps in the eastern Pacific basin 24S. Although the gap was partially filled by the 2014 Mw 8.1 Iquique earthquake, there is still a high seismogenic potential to release a Mw9 earthquake in the near future; therefore, all the near-field coastal cities in the region face a latent tsunami threat. In this article, we propose a hybrid deterministic--stochastic multi-scenario approach to assess the current tsunami hazard level in the city of Iquique, an important commercial and industrial center of northern Chile that is home to 184,000 inhabitants. In our approach, we defined 400 stochastic, 10 deterministic and 10 homogeneous tsunamigenic earthquake scenarios, covering the entire area of the seismic gap. Based on the regional distribution of gravity anomalies and published interseismic coupling distributions, we interpreted the occurrence of four major asperities in the subduction interface of the seismic gap. The asperity pattern was used to construct a group of deterministic slip-deficit earthquake sources with seismic magnitudes ranging between Mw 8.4 and Mw 8.9. Additionally, we constructed 10 homogeneous slip scenarios to generate an inundation baseline for the tsunami hazard. Subsequently, following a stochastic scheme, we implemented a Karhunen--Loéve expansion to generate 400 stochastic earthquake scenarios within the same magnitude range as the deterministic slip-deficit sources. All sources were used as earthquake scenarios to simulate the tsunami propagation and inundation by means of a non-hydrostatic model (Neowave 2D) with a classical nesting scheme for the city of Iquique. We obtained high-resolution data for flow depth, coastal surface currents and sea level elevation. The results suggest that the peak slip location and shelf resonance play an important role in the calculated coastal flow depths. The analysis of the entire set of simulated stochastic earthquake scenarios indicates that the worst-case scenario for Iquique is a Mw 8.9 earthquake. This scenario presented a tsunami arrival time of 12 min, which is critical for the evacuation process. In addition, the maximum wave height and tsunami flow depth were found to be 10 m and 24 m, respectively. The observed coastal resonance processes exhibit at least three destructive tsunami wave trains. Based on historical and instrumental catalog statistics, the recurrence time of the credible worst-case earthquake scenario for Iquique (Mw 8.9) is 395 years, with a probability of occurrence of 11.86% in the next 50 years.},

the absence of it in the excited state. Briefly, in the ground state,
the cleavage of the O-H bond results in a structure with high
electrostatic potential energy due to an excess of electron lone-pairs
(3) in the oxygen atom, which explains the barrier. In the excited

of nitrogen by allocating three nonbonding electrons in the basin of its
lone-pair. This excess of electrons in the N exerts an electrostatic
attraction of the proton, which we suggest as the primary driven-force
of the barrierless reaction. Because in excited states the molecule can
develop more vibrational kinetic energy than in the ground state, we

abstract = {The interaction of H2O onto small CuS, Cu2S, and ZnS clusters was theoretically studied by Density Functional Theory computations to get insights into the aggregation characteristics of metal sulfides at aqueous solutions. The results show the charge-controlled interactions with polarized solvent molecules are favored on the ZnS clusters compared with CuS and Cu2S clusters. Moreover, the chemical adsorption of H2O molecules is energetically favored onto ZnS clusters with higher interaction energies of up to 35.4 kcal/mol compared with CuS and Cu2S clusters (up to 31.3 kcal/mol), where the stability of H2O adsorption decreases as the size of the clusters increases. However, thermochemical analysis shows that the adsorption of H2O on copper sulfides is not a spontaneous process at room temperature. Additionally, the electrostatic energy of H2O onto the Cu2S and CuS clusters is lower than that associated with the H2O--H2O interactions, suggesting that copper precipitates prefer to bind between them at early stages of the precipitation process due to an unfavorable solvent-solute interaction. Dispersion forces play a relative key role in the interaction of water on copper sulfides, while for zinc sulfide clusters, the adsorption energy is slightly influenced by dispersion contributions. Accordingly, the aggregation of zinc sulfides in a water environment is expected to be lower compared with copper sulfides, and where the aggregation characteristics are not determined by the binding energy of the sulfides, but of the ability to interact with the solvent molecules. These statements were confirmed by experimental optical microscopy analysis and settling tests during precipitation processes in water. Therefore, this work allows proposing a simple strategy to study the aggregation characteristics of metal sulfides, which turns useful for use in hydrometallurgical applications.},

abstract = {This study evaluates hindcast simulations performed with a regional climate model (RCM, RegCM4) driven by reanalysis data (ERA-Interim) over the Pacific coast and Andes Cordillera of extratropical South America. A nested domain configuration at (0.44^circ 0.44∘sim∼50 km) and (0.09^circ 0.09∘sim∼10 km) spatial resolutions is used for the simulations. RegCM4 is also driven by a global climate model (GCM, MPI-ESM-MR) on the same domain configuration to asses the added values for temperature and precipitation (historical simulations). Overall, both 10 km hindcast and historical simulation results are promising and exhibit a better representation of near-surface air temperature and precipitation variability compared to the 50 km simulations. High-resolution simulations suppress an overestimation of precipitation over the Andes Cordillera of northern Chile found with the 50 km simulations. The simulated daily temperature and precipitation extreme indices from 10 km hindcast simulation show a closer estimation of the observed fields. A persistent warm bias (sim +,4,circ hbox ∼+4∘C) over the Atacama Desert in 10 km hindcast simulation reveals the complexity in representing land surface and radiative processes over the desert. Difficulties in capturing the temperature trend in northern Chile are notable for both hindcast simulations. Both resolutions exhibit added values for temperature and precipitation over large parts of Chile, in particular, the 10 km resolves the coastal-valley Andes transitions over central Chile. Our results highlight that resolutions coarser than 50 km (e.g., GCMs and reanalysis) miss important climate gradients imposed by complex topography. Given that the highest spatial resolution of the current regional simulations over the South America is about 50 km, higher resolutions are important to improve our understanding of the dynamical processes that determine climate over complex terrain and extreme environments.},

This can be performed on top of any electronic structure code, as long as the band and projection information is written in the PROCAR format, as done by the VASP and ABINIT codes. PyProcar can be easily modified to read other formats as well. This package is particularly suitable for understanding atomic effects into the band structure, Fermi surface, spin texture, etc. PyProcar can be conveniently used in a command line mode, where each one of the parameters define a plot property. In the case of Fermi-surfaces, the package is able to plot the surface with colors depending on other properties such as the electron velocity or spin projection. The mesh used to calculate the property does not need to be the same as the one used to obtain the Fermi surface. A file with a specific property evaluated for each k-point in a k-mesh and for each band can be used to project other properties such as electron-phonon mean path, Fermi velocity, electron effective mass, etc. Another existing feature refers to the band unfolding of supercell calculations into predefined unit cells.},

abstract = {In this work we are interested in a mathematical model of the collective behavior of a fully connected network of finitely many neurons, when their number and when time go to infinity. We assume that every neuron follows a stochastic version of the Hodgkin--Huxley model, and that pairs of neurons interact through both electrical and chemical synapses, the global connectivity being of mean field type. When the leak conductance is strictly positive, we prove that if the initial voltages are uniformly bounded and the electrical interaction between neurons is strong enough, then, uniformly in the number of neurons, the whole system synchronizes exponentially fast as time goes to infinity, up to some error controlled by (and vanishing with) the channels noise level. Moreover, we prove that if the random initial condition is exchangeable, on every bounded time interval the propagation of chaos property for this system holds (regardless of the interaction intensities). Combining these results, we deduce that the nonlinear McKean--Vlasov equation describing an infinite network of such neurons concentrates, as time goes to infinity, around the dynamics of a single Hodgkin--Huxley neuron with chemical neurotransmitter channels. Our results are illustrated and complemented with numerical simulations.},

In this work, mitochondrial DNA of E. maclovinus was fully sequenced using NGS technology. The mitochondrial genome is 16,960 bp long, showing high similarity with other Antarctic fishes. Phylogenetic analysis showed E. maclovinus closer to Nototheniidae and Channichthyidae families within Notothenioidei suborder. As conclusion, we obtained and described the complete mitogenome from E. maclovinus, which constitute a valuable and useful resource for population genetic study and monitoring, as well as for further conservation efforts on this species.},

abstract = {The conjugation of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) to amino acids by indole-3-acetic acid (IAA)-amido synthetases (GH3) is an important part of auxin level regulation. However, the auxin conjugation during development of soft fruits such as raspberry is poorly understood. In this study, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA)-amido synthetases in raspberry, designated as RiGH3 (RiGH3.1, RiGH3.5 transcripts) were evaluated during fruit development of raspberry cultivar Rubus idaeus Heritage, and under IAA treatment. The results showed that before to the onset of ripening the fruit size, weight and the expression of IAA-amido synthetase RiGH3.1 transcript levels increased. Then when the fruits attain full development, fruit firmness and titratable acidity decreased, in the contrast to ethylene production and total soluble solids content increasing. However, the RiGH3.5 transcript was found to be expressed primarily in flowers. When compared to untreated control fruit, fruit treated with 1 mM of IAA at white stage, showed an increase of RiGH3.1 transcript during in-vitro assay (10 °C by 18 h). However, no significant change in the levels of RiGH3.5 was observed during IAA treatment. Multiple alignments of the full-length predicted RiGH3.1 protein sequences revealed a high sequence homology with proteins deduced sequences described for other fruit of Rosaceae species. The RiGH3.1 deduced sequence showed the presence of binding motives for IAA and aspartic acid, and indicate that the isolated sequence have the typical motives of GH3.1 protein family. These findings give new insights into the possible role of RiGH3.1 transcripts, and the IAA conjugation (in maintaining the low concentration of free IAA) during raspberry fruit ripening.},

abstract = {Resumen / La existencia de agujeros negros supermasivos de mil millones de masas solares a muy alto corri-miento al rojo nos ha motivado a estudiar como estos objetos tan masivos se forman durante los primeros miles de millones de años después del Big Bang. El modelo mas prometedor que se ha propuesto es el colapso directo de nubes de gas protogalácticas. Este escenario requiere altas tasas de acreción para crear rápidamente objetos masi-vos y la inhibición del enfriamiento que causa H2, el cuál es importante en el proceso de fragmentación. Estudios recientes mostraron que, si usamos un fondo radiativo fuerte, el hidrógeno molecular se destruye, favoreciendo las altas tasas de acreción y por lo tanto formando objetos de muy alta masa. En este trabajo estudiamos el impacto de campos de radiación UV en una nube de gas primordial usando el código GRADSPH-KROME para investigar el proceso de fragmentación en escalas de unidades astronómicas y por lo tanto la formación de los primeros agujeros negros supermasivos. Encontramos que para suprimir la formación de H2 es necesario un valor de J21 muy alto, por lo que los agujeros negros de colapso directo no podrían explicar la formación de los primeros agujeros negros supermasivos. Abstract / The presence of supermassive black holes (SMBHs) of a few billion solar masses at very high redshift has motivated us to study how these massive objects formed during the first billion years after the Big Bang. The most promising model that has been proposed to explain this is the direct collapse of protogalactic gas clouds. In this scenario, very high accretion rates are needed to form massive objects early on and the suppression of H2 cooling is important in regulating the fragmentation. Recent studies have shown that if we use a strong radiation background, the hydrogen molecules are destroyed, favoring the high accretion rates and therefore producing objects of very high mass. In this work we study the impact of UV radiation fields in a primordial gas cloud using the recently coupled code GRADSPH-KROME for the modeling of gravitational collapse including primordial chemistry to explore the fragmentation in AU scales and hence the formation of first SMBHs. We found that to suppress the formation of H2 a very high value of J21 is required, because of that we conclude that the direct collapse black holes (DCBHs) are very unlikely to be an explanation for the formation of the first SMBHs.},

abstract = {Homogeneous melting of superheated crystals at constant energy is a dynamical process, believed to be triggered by the accumulation of thermal vacancies and their self-diffusion. From microcanonical simulations we know that if an ideal crystal is prepared at a given kinetic energy, it takes a random time tw until the melting mechanism is actually triggered. In this work we have studied in detail the statistics of tw for melting at different energies by performing a large number of Z-method simulations and applying state-of-the-art methods of Bayesian statistical inference. By focusing on a small system size and short-time tail of the distribution function, we show that tw is actually gamma-distributed rather than exponential (as asserted in a previous work), with decreasing probability near tw∼0. We also explicitly incorporate in our model the unavoidable truncation of the distribution function due to the limited total time span of a Z-method simulation. The probabilistic model presented in this work can provide some insight into the dynamical nature of the homogeneous melting process, as well as giving a well-defined practical procedure to incorporate melting times from simulation into the Z-method in order to correct the effect of short simulation times.},

abstract = {ABSTRACTIntroduction: Computational chemistry dramatically accelerates the drug discovery process and high-performance computing (HPC) can be used to speed up the most expensive calculations. Supporting a local HPC infrastructure is both costly and time-consuming, and, therefore, many research groups are moving from in-house solutions to remote-distributed computing platforms.Areas covered: The authors focus on the use of distributed technologies, solutions, and infrastructures to gain access to HPC capabilities, software tools, and datasets to run the complex simulations required in computational drug discovery (CDD).Expert opinion: The use of computational tools can decrease the time to market of new drugs. HPC has a crucial role in handling the complex algorithms and large volumes of data required to achieve specificity and avoid undesirable side-effects. Distributed computing environments have clear advantages over in-house solutions in terms of cost and sustainability. The use of infrastructures relying on virtualization reduces set-up costs. Distributed computing resources can be difficult to access, although web-based solutions are becoming increasingly available. There is a trade-off between cost-effectiveness and accessibility in using on-demand computing resources rather than free/academic resources. Graphics processing unit computing, with its outstanding parallel computing power, is becoming increasingly important.},

abstract = {The equilibrium geometries and thermodynamic properties of anion vacancies in cadmium telluride, as predicted by density functional theory, are revisited using semilocal and hybrid density functionals. We find that stable configurations in different charge states can only be found after a systematic search considering several starting geometries. The stable charge states, 0 and 2+, display closed-shell electronic configurations, without deep bandgap levels. The 2 + charge state has a Td symmetry with an outward relaxation, while the neutral state is a mixture of configurations with C2v and C3v symmetries, both with the same energy and a negligible energy barrier. Therefore, the neutral charge state presents an effective Td symmetry. Configurations with different symmetries, e.g., D2d, can exist as metastable states. We show that certain configurations may seem falsely stable due to several facts: the bandgap error of generalized gradient approximation, the k-point sampling used in small supercells, or the use of a restricted set of starting geometries. We believe that the HSE06 hybrid functional allows to obtain accurate formation energies and geometries. We analyze the effect of the spin-orbit coupling and GW quasiparticle corrections to the HSE06 results, and find no qualitative differences. The spin-orbit coupling and GW corrections to the HSE06 energies partially cancel each other. Finally, we investigate the divacancy VCdVTe. The obtained formation energies suggest that isolated tellurium vacancies in neutral charge state can be found only in Te-poor growth conditions, coexisting with divacancies.},
