text: 'Carbon has been used widely as the basis of porous cathodes for nonaqueous
Li–O2 cells. However, the stability of carbon and the effect of carbon on electrolyte
decomposition in such cells are complex and depend on the hydrophobicity/hydrophilicity
of the carbon surface. Analyzing carbon cathodes, cycled in Li–O2 cells between
2 and 4 V, using acid treatment and Fenton’s reagent, and combined with differential
electrochemical mass spectrometry and FTIR, demonstrates the following: Carbon
is relatively stable below 3.5 V (vs Li/Li+) on discharge or charge, especially
so for hydrophobic carbon, but is unstable on charging above 3.5 V (in the presence
of Li2O2), oxidatively decomposing to form Li2CO3. Direct chemical reaction with
Li2O2 accounts for only a small proportion of the total carbon decomposition on
cycling. Carbon promotes electrolyte decomposition during discharge and charge
in a Li–O2 cell, giving rise to Li2CO3 and Li carboxylates (DMSO and tetraglyme
electrolytes). The Li2CO3 and Li carboxylates present at the end of discharge
and those that form on charge result in polarization on the subsequent charge.
Li2CO3 (derived from carbon and from the electrolyte) as well as the Li carboxylates
(derived from the electrolyte) decompose and form on charging. Oxidation of Li2CO3
on charging to ∼4 V is incomplete; Li2CO3 accumulates on cycling resulting in
electrode passivation and capacity fading. Hydrophilic carbon is less stable and
more catalytically active toward electrolyte decomposition than carbon with a
hydrophobic surface. If the Li–O2 cell could be charged at or below 3.5 V, then
carbon may be relatively stable, however, its ability to promote electrolyte decomposition,
presenting problems for its use in a practical Li–O2 battery. The results emphasize
that stable cycling of Li2O2 at the cathode in a Li–O2 cell depends on the synergy
between electrolyte and electrode; the stability of the electrode and the electrolyte
cannot be considered in isolation.'

text: Energy‐storage technologies, including electrical double‐layer capacitors
and rechargeable batteries, have attracted significant attention for applications
in portable electronic devices, electric vehicles, bulk electricity storage at
power stations, and “load leveling” of renewable sources, such as solar energy
and wind power. Transforming lithium batteries and electric double‐layer capacitors
requires a step change in the science underpinning these devices, including the
discovery of new materials, new electrochemistry, and an increased understanding
of the processes on which the devices depend. The Review will consider some of
the current scientific issues underpinning lithium batteries and electric double‐layer
capacitors.

text: The rechargeable nonaqueous lithium-air (Li-O2) battery is receiving a great
deal of interest because, theoretically, its specific energy far exceeds the best
that can be achieved with lithium-ion cells. Operation of the rechargeable Li-O2
battery depends critically on repeated and highly reversible formation/decomposition
of lithium peroxide (Li2O2) at the cathode upon cycling. Here, we show that this
process is possible with the use of a dimethyl sulfoxide electrolyte and a porous
gold electrode (95% capacity retention from cycles 1 to 100), whereas previously
only partial Li2O2 formation/decomposition and limited cycling could occur. Furthermore,
we present data indicating that the kinetics of Li2O2 oxidation on charge is approximately
10 times faster than on carbon electrodes.

text: Stability of the electrolyte toward reduced oxygen species generated at the
cathode is a crucial challenge for the rechargeable nonaqueous Li–O2 battery.
Here, we investigate dimethylformamide as the basis of an electrolyte. Although
reactions at the O2 cathode on the first discharge–charge cycle are dominated
by reversible Li2O2 formation/decomposition, there is also electrolyte decomposition,
which increases on cycling. The products of decomposition at the cathode on discharge
are Li2O2, Li2CO3, HCO2Li, CH3CO2Li, NO, H2O, and CO2. Li2CO3 accumulates in the
electrode with cycling. The stability of dimethylformamide toward reduced oxygen
species is insufficient for its use in the rechargeable nonaqueous Li–O2 battery.

text: Decades of research in distributed computing have led to a variety of perspectives
on what it means for a concurrent algorithm to be efficient, depending on model
assumptions, progress guarantees, and complexity metrics. It is therefore natural
to ask whether one could compose algorithms that perform efficiently under different
conditions, so that the composition preserves the performance of the original
components when their conditions are met. In this paper, we evaluate the cost
of composing shared-memory algorithms. First, we formally define the notion of
safely composable algorithms and we show that every sequential type has a safely
composable implementation, as long as enough state is transferred between modules.
Since such generic implementations are inherently expensive, we present a more
general light-weight specification that allows the designer to transfer very little
state between modules, by taking advantage of the semantics of the implemented
object. Using this framework, we implement a composed longlived test-and-set object,
with the property that each of its modules is asymptotically optimal with respect
to the progress condition it ensures, while the entire implementation only uses
objects with consensus number at most two. Thus, we show that the overhead of
composition can be negligible in the case of some important shared-memory abstractions.

text: Renaming is a fundamental problem in distributed computing, in which a set
of n processes need to pick unique names from a namespace of limited size. In
this paper, we present the first early-deciding upper bounds for synchronous renaming,
in which the running time adapts to the actual number of failures f in the execution.
We show that, surprisingly, renaming can be solved in constant time if the number
of failures f is limited to O(√n), while for general f ≤ n - 1 renaming can always
be solved in O(log f) communication rounds. In the wait-free case, i.e. for f
= n - 1, our upper bounds match the Ω(log n) lower bound of Chaudhuri et al. [13].

text: Set agreement is a fundamental problem in distributed computing in which processes
collectively choose a small subset of values from a larger set of proposals. The
impossibility of fault-tolerant set agreement in asynchronous networks is one
of the seminal results in distributed computing. In synchronous networks, too,
the complexity of set agreement has been a significant research challenge that
has now been resolved. Real systems, however, are neither purely synchronous nor
purely asynchronous. Rather, they tend to alternate between periods of synchrony
and periods of asynchrony. Nothing specific is known about the complexity of set
agreement in such a "partially synchronous" setting. In this paper,
we address this challenge, presenting the first (asymptotically) tight bound on
the complexity of set agreement in such systems. We introduce a novel technique
for simulating, in a fault-prone asynchronous shared memory, executions of an
asynchronous and failure-prone message-passing system in which some fragments
appear synchronous to some processes. We use this simulation technique to derive
a lower bound on the round complexity of set agreement in a partially synchronous
system by a reduction from asynchronous wait-free set agreement. Specifically,
we show that every set agreement protocol requires at least $\lfloor\frac t k
\rfloor + 2$ synchronous rounds to decide. We present an (asymptotically) matching
algorithm that relies on a distributed asynchrony detection mechanism to decide
as soon as possible during periods of synchrony. From these two results, we derive
the size of the minimal window of synchrony needed to solve set agreement. By
relating synchronous, asynchronous and partially synchronous environments, our
simulation technique is of independent interest. In particular, it allows us to
obtain a new lower bound on the complexity of early deciding k-set agreement complementary
to that of Gafni et al. (in SIAM J. Comput. 40(1):63-78, 2011), and to re-derive
the combinatorial topology lower bound of Guerraoui et al. (in Theor. Comput.
Sci. 410(6-7):570-580, 2009) in an algorithmic way.

text: 'Asynchronous task allocation is a fundamental problem in distributed computing
in which p asynchronous processes must execute a set of m tasks. Also known as
write-all or do-all, this problem been studied extensively, both independently
and as a key building block for various distributed algorithms. In this paper,
we break new ground on this classic problem: we introduce the To-Do Tree concurrent
data structure, which improves on the best known randomized and deterministic
upper bounds. In the presence of an adaptive adversary, the randomized To-Do Tree
algorithm has O(m + p log p log2 m) work complexity. We then show that there exists
a deterministic variant of the To-Do Tree algorithm with work complexity O(m +
p log5 m log2 max(m, p)). For all values of m and p, our algorithms are within
log factors of the Ω(m + p log p) lower bound for this problem. The key technical
ingredient in our results is a new approach for analyzing concurrent executions
against a strong adaptive scheduler. This technique allows us to handle the complex
dependencies between the processes'' coin flips and their scheduling, and to tightly
bound the work needed to perform subsets of the tasks.'

text: Synchronous distributed algorithms are easier to design and prove correct
than algorithms that tolerate asynchrony. Yet, in the real world, networks experience
asynchrony and other timing anomalies. In this paper, we address the question
of how to efficiently transform an algorithm that relies on synchronous timing
into an algorithm that tolerates asynchronous executions. We introduce a transformation
technique from synchronous algorithms to indulgent algorithms (Guerraoui, in PODC,
pp. 289-297, 2000), which induces only a constant overhead in terms of time complexity
in well-behaved executions. Our technique is based on a new abstraction we call
an asynchrony detector, which the participating processes implement collectively.
The resulting transformation works for the class of colorless distributed tasks,
including consensus and set agreement. Interestingly, we also show that our technique
is relevant for colored tasks, by applying it to the renaming problem, to obtain
the first indulgent renaming algorithm.

text: Female mate choice acts as an important evolutionary force, yet the influence
of the environment on both its expression and the selective pressures acting upon
it remains unknown. We found consistent heritable differences between females
in their choice of mate based on ornament size during a 25‐year study of a population
of collared flycatchers. However, the fitness consequences of mate choice were
dependent on environmental conditions experienced whilst breeding. Females breeding
with highly ornamented males experienced high relative fitness during dry summer
conditions, but low relative fitness during wetter years. Our results imply that
sexual selection within a population can be highly variable and dependent upon
the prevailing weather conditions experienced by individuals.

text: Although studies on laboratory species and natural populations of vertebrates
have shown reproduction to impair later performance, little is known of the age‐specific
associations between reproduction and survival, and how such findings apply to
the ageing of large, long‐lived species. Herein we develop a framework to examine
population‐level patterns of reproduction and survival across lifespan in long‐lived
organisms, and decompose those changes into individual‐level effects, and the
effects of age‐specific trade‐offs between fitness components. We apply this to
an extensive longitudinal dataset on female semi‐captive Asian timber elephants
(Elephas maximus) and report the first evidence of age‐specific fitness declines
that are driven by age‐specific associations between fitness components in a long‐lived
mammal. Associations between reproduction and survival are positive in early life,
but negative in later life with up to 71% of later‐life survival declines associated
with investing in the production of offspring within this population of this critically
endangered species.

text: We present an analysis of finite-size effects in jammed packings of N soft,
frictionless spheres at zero temperature. There is a 1/N correction to the discrete
jump in the contact number at the transition so that jammed packings exist only
above isostaticity. As a result, the canonical power-law scalings of the contact
number and elastic moduli break down at low pressure. These quantities exhibit
scaling collapse with a nontrivial scaling function, demonstrating that the jamming
transition can be considered a phase transition. Scaling is achieved as a function
of N in both two and three dimensions, indicating an upper critical dimension
of 2.

text: Fungal cell walls frequently contain a polymer of mannose and galactose called
galactomannan. In the pathogenic filamentous fungus Aspergillus fumigatus, this
polysaccharide is made of a linear mannan backbone with side chains of galactofuran
and is anchored to the plasma membrane via a glycosylphosphatidylinositol or is
covalently linked to the cell wall. To date, the biosynthesis and significance
of this polysaccharide are unknown. The present data demonstrate that deletion
of the Golgi UDP-galactofuranose transporter GlfB or the GDP-mannose transporter
GmtA leads to the absence of galactofuran or galactomannan, respectively. This
indicates that the biosynthesis of galactomannan probably occurs in the lumen
of the Golgi apparatus and thus contrasts with the biosynthesis of other fungal
cell wall polysaccharides studied to date that takes place at the plasma membrane.
Transglycosylation of galactomannan from the membrane to the cell wall is hypothesized
because both the cell wall-bound and membrane-bound polysaccharide forms are affected
in the generated mutants. Considering the severe growth defect of the A. fumigatus
GmtA-deficient mutant, proving this paradigm might provide new targets for antifungal
therapy.

text: In dynamical models of cortical networks, the recurrent connectivity can amplify
the input given to the network in two distinct ways. One is induced by the presence
of near-critical eigenvalues in the connectivity matrix W, producing large but
slow activity fluctuations along the corresponding eigenvectors (dynamical slowing).
The other relies on W not being normal, which allows the network activity to make
large but fast excursions along specific directions. Here we investigate the trade-off
between non-normal amplification and dynamical slowing in the spontaneous activity
of large random neuronal networks composed of excitatory and inhibitory neurons.
We use a Schur decomposition of W to separate the two amplification mechanisms.
Assuming linear stochastic dynamics, we derive an exact expression for the expected
amount of purely non-normal amplification. We find that amplification is very
limited if dynamical slowing must be kept weak. We conclude that, to achieve strong
transient amplification with little slowing, the connectivity must be structured.
We show that unidirectional connections between neurons of the same type together
with reciprocal connections between neurons of different types, allow for amplification
already in the fast dynamical regime. Finally, our results also shed light on
the differences between balanced networks in which inhibition exactly cancels
excitation and those where inhibition dominates.

text: Using correlated live-cell imaging and electron tomography we found that actin
branch junctions in protruding and treadmilling lamellipodia are not concentrated
at the front as previously supposed, but link actin filament subsets in which
there is a continuum of distances from a junction to the filament plus ends, for
up to at least 1 mm. When branch sites were observed closely spaced on the same
filament their separation was commonly a multiple of the actin helical repeat
of 36 nm. Image averaging of branch junctions in the tomograms yielded a model
for the in vivo branch at 2.9 nm resolution, which was comparable with that derived
for the in vitro actin- Arp2/3 complex. Lamellipodium initiation was monitored
in an intracellular wound-healing model and was found to involve branching from
the sides of actin filaments oriented parallel to the plasmalemma. Many filament
plus ends, presumably capped, terminated behind the lamellipodium tip and localized
on the dorsal and ventral surfaces of the actin network. These findings reveal
how branching events initiate and maintain a network of actin filaments of variable
length, and provide the first structural model of the branch junction in vivo.
A possible role of filament capping in generating the lamellipodium leaflet is
discussed and a mathematical model of protrusion is also presented.

text: The spatial organization of cell fates during development involves the interpretation
of morphogen gradients by cellular signaling cascades and transcriptional networks.
Recent studies use biophysical models, genetics, and quantitative imaging to unravel
how tissue-level morphogen behavior arises from subcellular events. Moreover,
data from several systems show that morphogen gradients, downstream signaling,
and the activity of cell-intrinsic transcriptional networks change dynamically
during pattern formation. Studies from Drosophila and now also vertebrates suggest
that transcriptional network dynamics are central to the generation of gene expression
patterns. Together, this leads to the view that pattern formation is an emergent
behavior that results from the coordination of events occurring across molecular,
cellular, and tissue scales. The development of novel approaches to study this
complex process remains a challenge.

text: We report on the electronic transport properties of multiple-gate devices
fabricated from undoped silicon nanowires. Understanding and control of the relevant
transport mechanisms was achieved by means of local electrostatic gating and temperature-dependent
measurements. The roles of the source/drain contacts and of the silicon channel
could be independently evaluated and tuned. Wrap gates surrounding the silicide-silicon
contact interfaces were proved to be effective in inducing a full suppression
of the contact Schottky barriers, thereby enabling carrier injection down to liquid
helium temperature. By independently tuning the effective Schottky barrier heights,
a variety of reconfigurable device functionalities could be obtained. In particular,
the same nanowire device could be configured to work as a Schottky barrier transistor,
a Schottky diode, or a p-n diode with tunable polarities. This versatility was
eventually exploited to realize a NAND logic gate with gain well above one.

text: Self-assembled Ge wires with a height of only 3 unit cells and a length of
up to 2 micrometers were grown on Si(001) by means of a catalyst-free method based
on molecular beam epitaxy. The wires grow horizontally along either the [100]
or the [010] direction. On atomically flat surfaces, they exhibit a highly uniform,
triangular cross section. A simple thermodynamic model accounts for the existence
of a preferential base width for longitudinal expansion, in quantitative agreement
with the experimental findings. Despite the absence of intentional doping, the
first transistor-type devices made from single wires show low-resistive electrical
contacts and single-hole transport at sub-Kelvin temperatures. In view of their
exceptionally small and self-defined cross section, these Ge wires hold promise
for the realization of hole systems with exotic properties and provide a new development
route for silicon-based nanoelectronics.

text: We studied the low-energy states of spin-1/2 quantum dots defined in InAs/InP
nanowires and coupled to aluminum superconducting leads. By varying the superconducting
gap Δ with a magnetic field B we investigated the transition from strong coupling
Δ≪T K to weak-coupling Δ≫T K, where T K is the Kondo temperature. Below the critical
field, we observe a persisting zero-bias Kondo resonance that vanishes only for
low B or higher temperatures, leaving the room to more robust subgap structures
at bias voltages between Δ and 2Δ. For strong and approximately symmetric tunnel
couplings, a Josephson supercurrent is observed in addition to the Kondo peak.
We ascribe the coexistence of a Kondo resonance and a superconducting gap to a
significant density of intragap quasiparticle states, and the finite-bias subgap
structures to tunneling through Shiba states. Our results, supported by numerical
calculations, own relevance also in relation to tunnel-spectroscopy experiments
aiming at the observation of Majorana fermions in hybrid nanostructures.
