Isoniazid, the first line drug for TB, will act on the enzyme InhA. An attempt was made to incorporate substituted 1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol nucleus to this, so that it will act by inhibiting sterol 14&alpha;-demethylase P450 (CYP51). The lead molecule will be synthesized by conventional method. The products obtained will be characterized and percentage yield calculated. The purity of the compounds will be checked by melting point and R<sub>f</sub> value in TLC. Structures of all synthesized compounds were confirmed by FTIR, <sup>1</sup>H NMR and mass spectral data. Molinspiration software was used for finding the <em>c</em> log <em>P</em> values and the antitubercular activity was studied. All the synthesized 1,2,4-triazole derivatives showed inhibitory activity against Mycobacterium tuberculosis H<sub>37</sub>Rv strains.

Abstract:
Background: The neuronal correlates of depression with mixed traits (according to DSM-5) at rest have not been studied. Objective: to determine the indicators of imaginary coherence of EEG-rest, which distinguish patients with depression with mixed features (according to DSM-5) from patients with depression without mixed features and healthy subjects, and also to trace the dependence of the identified neurophysiological characteristics on the diagnostic belonging of the symptom complex to bipolar II type or recurrent depressive disorder. Patients and methods: on a background free from drug therapy, 80 patients with depression with mixed features (XD; n = 40 — with bipolar II disorder (XB) and n = 40 — with recurrent depressive disorder (XR)), 80 patients with depression without mixed traits (TD; n = 40 — for bipolar II type (TB) and n = 40 — for recurrent depressive disorder (TR), as well as 80 healthy subjects (N). The study groups were matched by sex and age. The study used clinical-psychopathological, psychometric, neurophysiological and statistical research methods. According to the Kruskal–Wallis criterion for independent samples the parameters of imaginary coherence (modulo) of standard frequency ranges (delta (δ) — 0.5–4 Hz, theta (θ) — 4–8 Hz, alpha (α) — 8–13 Hz, beta-1 (β1) — 13–20 Hz, beta-2 (β2) — 20–30 Hz, gamma (γ) — 30–45 Hz) between pairs of 14 cutaneous standard EEG derivations (according to the “10–20” system) in three (XD, TD and N), and then in five (XB, XR, TB, TR and N) comparison groups. Post-hoc analysis was performed using the U-test. The significance level was adjusted according to the Bonferroni correction. Results: three indicators were identified: α-ICoh(C3–P4), β1-ICoh(C3–P3) and β2-ICoh(F3–C4). For all three parameters, the H-test values for the “Group” factor (n = 3 and n = 5) were highly significant. In this case, α-ICoh(C3– P4) — XD = TD, XD &lt; N, TD &lt; N; β1-ICoh(C3–P3) — XD &lt; TD, XD &lt; N; TD &lt; N; β2-ICoh(F3–C4) — XD &gt; TD; XD &gt; N, TD &gt; N. The groups of patients with XD within the framework of recurrent depressive and bipolar II disorders significantly differed in terms of β1- ICoh(C3–P3) — XR &gt; XB. At the level of statistical trends, in type II bipolar disorder — XB &gt; TB according to α-ICoh(C3–P4), and in recurrent depressive disorder — XR &gt; TR according to β2-ICoh(F3–C4). Conclusion. Thus, depression with mixed features can be considered in terms of dysfunctional interactions of the left frontal, bilateral central and parietal cortical zones, depending on the diagnostic affiliation of the depressive symptom complex and reflecting violations of automatic and voluntary regulation of affect, cognitive and behavioral changes.

Abstract:
Aquaponics is a sustainable food production system that combines aquaculture and hydroponics in a symbiotic relationship. However, one of the challenges of aquaponics is to find a suitable and affordable feed source for the fish. Black soldier fly larvae (BSFL) are an alternative feed source that can be produced from organic waste and have high nutritional value for fish. BSFL can also provide ecosystem services such as waste reduction, nutrient recycling, and pest control. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of BSFL dietary inclusion on the ecosystem services and NPK use efficiency of aquaponics systems with Nile tilapia (<em>Oreochromis niloticus</em>) and spinach (<em>Spinacia oleracea</em>). Five experimental diets were formulated with different levels of BSFL inclusion: Control (0% BSFL), TA (10% BSFL), TB (20% BSFL), TC (30% BSFL), TD (40% BSFL), and TE (50% BSFL). The experiment was conducted for 35 days in a recirculating aquaponics system with six fish tanks and six plant beds. The fish growth performance, water quality parameters, plant biomass, NPK content, and waste reduction were measured and compared among the treatments. The results showed that TC had the best fish growth performance, with the highest weight gain, specific growth rate, feed conversion ratio, and protein efficiency ratio. The water quality parameters were within the acceptable ranges for both fish and plants in all treatments. The plant biomass and NPK content were highest in H, followed by Control, TC and TB. The waste reduction was also highest in TD, followed by TC and TE. The NPK use efficiency was calculated as the ratio of NPK uptake by plants to NPK input by fish feed. The results showed that TD had the highest NPK use efficiency, followed by TC and TB. The study concluded that BSFL dietary inclusion can improve the ecosystem services and NPK use efficiency of aquaponics systems with tilapia and spinach, with 40% BSFL being the optimal level.

Abstract:
Introduction Luspatercept (luspa) is a first-in-class erythroid-maturation agent approved for red blood cells transfusion dependent (RBC-TD) lower risk myelodysplastic syndrome (LR-MDS) with ring sideroblast (RS) based on MEDALIST clinical trial. We aimed to explore impact of luspa on overall survival (OS) and predictors of response in a large cohort of pts treated with luspa, collected from Moffitt Cancer Center (MCC) and from Fondazione Italiana Sindromi Mielodisplastiche (FISiM). Methods We evaluated all pts with LR-MDS-RS treated with luspa from MCC cohort since FDA approval, and from a multicenter observational trial of FISiM for pts treated on a compassionate use program . Baseline RBC transfusion burden (TB) was defined as: non-transfusion dependent (NTD) (0 units in 8 weeks prior luspa), low TB (LTB) (1-5 units/8 weeks ) and high TB (HTB) (≥ 6 units/8 weeks). A hematological response (HI) was defined as an (i) objective Hgb increase of &amp;gt; 1.5 g/dl in NTD, and (ii) RBC-TI with Hgb increase of 1.5 g/dl, or RBC-TI without Hgb 1.5 g/dl increase, or &amp;gt;50% reduction in RBC TB among RBC-TD. Somatic mutation (MT) data were available for 137 pts. Results Between January 2020 and March 2023, 331 pts were treated with Luspa (Table-1). The median age was 69 years; 308 pts (93%) had MDS-RS, 86,1% were intermediate, low or very low risk MDS by R-IPSS and 82% (105/128) were moderate low (ML), low (L) or very low (VL) by IPPS-M. SF3B1 MT was detected in 86.3% (120/139) with a median VAF of 37.7. The mean Hgb level was 7.97 g/dl and 93.7% were RBC-TD. Majority had prior erythroid stimulating agents (ESA) (93.6%). In the MCC cohort 42.9% (52/121) had prior hypomethylating agents (HMA) therapy, and 31.4% (38/121) had prior lenalidomide (len). With a median follow up of 14.6 mos from starting luspa treatment, the median OS was not reached (NR) among responders to luspa compared to 24.5 mos for non-responders (p &amp;lt;.001) (Figure-1). The median OS benefit was more pronounced among pts with RBC-TI and Hgb&amp;gt; 1.5 g/dl increase compared to other categories of response. In the NTD group at baseline, the median OS among luspa responders was NR compared to 22.7 mos among non-responders (P&amp;lt; .001). In the LTB group at baseline median OS was NR as well among luspa responders compared to 29.9 mos in non-responders (p=.002) and finally among HTB group at baseline, the median OS among luspa responders was 35.4 mos compared to 21.2 mos in non-responders (p=.007). In multivariable analysis adjusting for IPSS-M and baseline RBC-TD, response to luspa was independently associated with improved OS, HR .39 (95% CI .18-.83), p= .015 The overall HI rate to luspa was 40.6% (134/330) (Table-1), 85% of pts needed dose escalation, HI correlated with baseline RBC-TB where 80% (16/20) NTD, 60.2% (65/108) LTB and 41.8% HTB (77/184) achieved HI respectively, p&amp;lt; .001. By IPSS-M, there was a trend for lower HI with higher risk disease (100% in VL, 60.3% in L, 36.7% in ML, 56.3% in MH, 16.7% in H risk pts, p=.051). There was a mild trend for higher response among SF3B1 MT pts compared to wild type, 54% (64/119) versus 42% (8/19), p=.34.The segregation of SF3B1 MT cases into three independent groups based on IPSS-M, showed that HI rate was better in SF3B1 β ( SF3B1 and any gene from BCOR, BCORL1, NRAS, RUNX1, SRSF2 or STAG2) and SF3B1 α (as any other mutant) than SF3B1 5q(concomitantpresence with isolated del5q): 50% (7/14), 58.8% (57/97), and 0% (0/5) respectively, p=.03. Among SF3B1 5qpts, 4 had been treated with len before luspa and only 1 had achieved an HI with prior len. Among pts with SF3B1 MT, we observed a trend for higher response in pts with the hotspot K700E, 62.7% (37/59) vs 47.4% (27/57) in non-K700E, p=.097. In pts with SF3B1 MT, divided by median VAF, we observed a trend for better HI with VAF was &amp;gt;38, 63.5% (33/52) vs 45.3% (24/53), p=.062. Among responders, the median duration of response was 14.1 mos. As of last follow up, 85% pts (191/224) discontinued treatment. Reason of discontinuation was lack of response in 126 pts, loss of response in 26 patients and adverse events in 6 pts. The most common reported adverse events were fatigue (n=10), GI symptoms (n=4), shortness of breath and arthralgia (1 each). Conclusions Our RWD in the largest luspa treated cohort demonstrates OS benefit to luspa response. Low baseline RBC-TB dependency, lower risk IPSS-M, SF3B1 MT, SF3B1-K700E mutation and SF3B1 α co-mutations correlated with higher response rates. Our data emphasizes the impact of RBC-TI in LR-MDS.

Abstract:
Background: This study aims to identify the signatures of natural selection in the pyrazinamidase (pncA) gene to see if genetic adaptations by Darwinian natural selection have shaped genetic composition of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb). Methods: The present analyses were based on 209 DNA sequences (561 bp) of the pncA gene of the bacterial pathogen, Mtb from seven different counties (Peru, Pakistan, South Africa, Mexico, India, China, and Kuwait) endemic to tuberculosis (TB). Before conducting tests for Darwinian natural selection in the pncA gene, we conducted several tests for neutrality in all the available DNA sequences after retrieval from public domains. Several statistical analyses under different algorithms were conducted and biological/evolutionary inferences were drawn. Results: The 209 sequences of the pncA gene in Mtb belonging to seven different countries were found to be perfectly aligned with the reference sequence. Data analyses under different population genetic models revealed the highest genetic diversity in India, followed by Peru; the lowest was in China. Interestingly, four populations; Peru, Pakistan, India, and Kuwait were found to be deviated from neutral model of evolution based on Tajima’D (TD) values; two populations (India and Peru) based on Fu and Li’s D and F (FLD and FLF) test values and five populations (India, Peru, Pakistan, South Africa, and Kuwait) based on Fay and Wu’s H (FWH) test. Moreover, based on the statistically significant results of neutrality tests, evidence for positive selection in three populations (Peru [P &lt; 0.02945], Pakistan [P &lt; 0.01767], and Kuwait [P &lt; 0.00301]) at P &lt; 0.05 level of significance] was found. Conclusion: The present evolutionary genetic analysis of the pncA gene indicates different levels of genetic diversity in seven different country populations. As almost all the global populations showed deviation from neutral model and three populations showed signatures of natural selection, with no specific hotspot region identified for PZA resistance, this gene needs to be studied with larger population size covering countries with TB incidences to study the evolution of drug resistance in Mtb. This will help in the management of drug resistance and TB elimination plan.

Abstract:
Standard induction processes of delayed fluorescence (DF) of chlorophyll (induction signals) occur when an intact leaf segment of maize inbreds and hybrids is kept in the phosphoroscope darkroom for more than 15 minutes (t &gt; 15 min), and at the same time the leaf is illuminated with the intermittent white light. Resolved induction processes of DF chlorophyll into transients: A, B, C, D and E occur when the intact leaf segment of maize inbreds and hybrids is kept in the phosphoroscope darkroom for a significantly shorter period (500 s &gt; t &gt; 30 s), with the time rate t of 30 s, prior to its illumination with the intermittent white light. Induction transients: A, B, C, D and E are characterized with the time of their generation: tA = 31?6 ms (A), tB = 5 ? 0,5 s (B), tC = 15?5 s (C), tD = 360?20 s (D) and tE = 670?35 s (E), dynamics of changes in transients intensities (IA, IB, IC, ID and IE) and mechanisms of their generation. The induction processes of chlorophyll DF of the intact leaf of maize inbreds and hybrids resolved into transients: A, B, C, D and E are accompanied by the occurrence and different levels of activation energy (Ea, kJ mol-1) that correspond to critical temperatures ranging from 28 to 33?C. The generation mechanisms of induction transients A, B, C, D and E classify them into two groups. Transients A and B are of a physical character, while the transients: C, D, and E are of a chemical character. It is shown that the generation of the induction transients: B, C, D and E simultaneously follows establishing of the oscillations of induction processes of the DF chlorophyll. Oscillating of induction processes of DF chlorophyll is explained by the ion (K+, Na+, H+, Cl-) transport mechanism across the thylakoid membrane of the intact leaf of maize inbreds and hybrids grown under conditions of air drought, increased temperatures and water deficiency in the medium.

Abstract:
Purpose The authors examined whether school-age children with a history of specific language impairment (H-SLI), their peers with typical development (TD), and adults differ in sensitivity to audiovisual temporal asynchrony and whether such difference stems from the sensory encoding of audiovisual information. Method Fifteen H-SLI children, 15 TD children, and 15 adults judged whether a flashed explosion-shaped figure and a 2-kHz pure tone occurred simultaneously. The stimuli were presented at 0-, 100-, 200-, 300-, 400-, and 500-ms temporal offsets. This task was combined with EEG recordings. Results H-SLI children were profoundly less sensitive to temporal separations between auditory and visual modalities compared with their TD peers. Those H-SLI children who performed better at simultaneity judgment also had higher language aptitude. TD children were less accurate than adults, revealing a remarkably prolonged developmental course of the audiovisual temporal discrimination. Analysis of early event-related potential components suggested that poor sensory encoding was not a key factor in H-SLI children's reduced sensitivity to audiovisual asynchrony. Conclusions Audiovisual temporal discrimination is impaired in H-SLI children and is still immature during mid-childhood in TD children. The present findings highlight the need for further evaluation of the role of atypical audiovisual processing in the development of SLI.

Abstract:
Polyoxoniobates (PONbs) are a small family of highly electron-rich clusters. The development of new solids composed of these clusters have applications in green energy and electronics. However, the high charge environment of PONbs typically requires alkaline synthetic conditions that are unsuitable for introducing other metals and organic molecules, making synthesis of new systems difficult. To date, very few transition metals and organic ligands have been incorporated into these PONb solids, and lanthanide metal inclusion, which generally improves photoconductivity due to longlived f-orbital excitations, has not yet been fully realized. Here, the synthesis of a new class of lanthanide niobate cluster [Ln4(H2O)8(SO4)5(NbO3)2]·3H2O; Ln= Dy, Tb under acidic conditions is reported. Structures were determined by crystallography and time-dependent density functional theory (TD-DFT) was used to provide insight into photo-induced electronic transitions. Supporting computational methods that are currently being developed for modeling these emerging cluster systems are described.

Abstract:
Abstract There are eight foods that contribute to food allergies in the western world and peanut is the most common. Currently, there are no medical treatments that can cure an individual of food allergy, so avoidance of the allergic food is the only option. In the United States, there are three immunodominant allergic proteins accountable for patient sensitization to peanut, Arachis hypogea 1, 2, and 3 (Ara h 1, Ara h 2, Ara h 3). Therefore, research into why peanuts are more allergic than other foods that have homologous proteins is critical and may be obtained by studying the structural and allergenic properties of individual allergens and the changes that occur due to food processing. In this study, the basic and acidic subunits of Ara h 3 were cloned, expressed, and purified, and compared with each other and with the native Ara h 3 purified from peanut for differences in binding to IgE from peanut allergic individuals. Also, an in vitro Maillard reaction was performed on purified native raw Ara h 3 and patient serum IgE western blots were performed. This study concluded that an in vitro Maillard reaction enhanced IgE binding to Ara h 3, IgE binding to native Ara h 3 was in most cases higher than to the recombinant Ara h 3 subunits, and recognition of the acidic subunit was much higher than the and basic subunits in both the recombinant and native forms of the protein were investigated.

Abstract:
In New Orleans during the 1830s, Irish immigration became a source of tension between newly settled Anglo-American elites and the long-established Creole hegemony. Out of this tension, in 1835 Anglo-American elites established the Louisiana Native American Association (LNAA) to block Irish immigrants from gaining citizenship and, ultimately, the right to vote. The Whig Party, whom most Louisiana Anglo-Americans supported, promoted nativism to prevent naturalized Irish from voting Democrat, the preferred party of the Creoles. This study will argue that the LNAA, under the leadership of William H. Christy, was not merely a reaction to increased Irish immigration, but was also a strategy used by the Louisiana Whig Party to gain dominion over state politics. In the end, this strategy did more harm than good to the Whigs as the nativist movement led to a fatal split within the party.

Abstract:
This thesis presents a Monte Carlo study of the search for charged Higgs bosons heavier than the mass of the top quark within the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) at the ATLAS experiment at the CERN Large Hadron Collider. Charged Higgs bosons are predicted in many non-minimal Higgs extensions of the Standard Model. Their discovery would be a clear signal for the existence of New Physics beyond the Standard Model, possibly the first experimental evidence to be found if the MSSM is realized in nature. The feasibility of detecting the heavy charged Higgs boson with a mass up to 600 GeV is studied in the decay channel H-&gt;tb for an integrated luminosity of 30 inverse femtobarns at a center-of-mass energy of 10 TeV. A major difficulty for charged Higgs boson reconstruction is the combinatorial background in the complex multi-jet final state environment. It is shown that this can be overcome by applying a kinematic fitting procedure and by a subsequent cut-based event and candidate selection. An iterative solution of the developed kinematic fit with non-linear constraints is presented. In addition, the reconstruction of charged Higgs bosons makes high demands on the ability to identify jets containing b-hadrons. A special b-tagging algorithm is introduced and a comparison with first ATLAS data is presented showing good agreement of the expected performance. This study is performed with a realistic simulation of the ATLAS detector and takes into account all dominant experimental uncertainties and statistical uncertainties arising from limited Monte Carlo statistics. The result is given in terms of discovery and exclusion contours in the (m(H), tan(beta)) parameter space in the mhmax scenario of the MSSM. This study indicates that the heavy charged Higgs boson can be discovered in this decay channel only for large values of tan(beta). It, however, can contribute to a combined H sensitivity including other decay channels. Compared to previous studies the discovery reach could be improved<br>Die vorliegende Arbeit präsentiert eine Monte Carlo Studie zur Suche nach geladenen Higgs Bosonen mit einer Masse größer als die des top Quarks im Kontext des Minimal Supersymmetrischen Standardmodells (MSSM) am ATLAS Experiment am CERN Large Hadron Collider. Geladene Higgs Bosonen werden von vielen Erweiterungen des Standardmodells vorhergesagt. Ihre Entdeckung wäre ein klares Indiz für neue Physik jenseits des Standardmodells, möglicherweise der erste experimentelle Befund für das MSSM. Eine Machbarkeitsstudie zur Entdeckung geladener Higgs Bosonen mit Massen bis zu 600 GeV im Zerfallskanal H-&gt;tb für eine integrierte Luminosität von 30 inversen femtobarn und einer Schwerpunktsenergie von 10 TeV wird vorgestellt. Eine der Hauptschwierigkeiten bei der Rekonstruktion geladener Higgs Bosonen ist der durch den komplexen Endzustand mit vielen Jets auftretende kombinatorische Untergrund. Es wird gezeigt, dass die Rekonstruktion durch Anwendung eines kinematischen Fits mit anschließender schnittbasierter Ereignis- und Kandidatenselektion möglich ist. Eine iterative Lösung des entwickelten kinematischen Fits mit nicht-linearen Zwangsbedingungen wird vorgestellt. Des Weiteren stellt die Rekonstruktion geladener Higgs Bosonen hohe Ansprüche an die Möglichkeit, Jets, welche b-Hadronen beinhalten, zu identifizieren. Ein spezieller b-tagging Algorithmus wird vorgestellt und ein Vergleich mit den ersten ATLAS Daten zeigt eine gute Übereinstimmung mit den erwarteten Eigenschaften. Die Studie wurde mit einer realistischen ATLAS Detektorsimulation durchgeführt und beinhaltet alle dominanten experimentellen Unsicherheiten sowie die statistische Unsicherheiten aufgrund begrenzt vorhandener simulierter Ereignisse. Die erwarteten Entdeckungs- und Ausschlusskonturen im mhmax Szenario des MSSM werden als Funktion der geladenen Higgs Boson Masse und tan(beta) gegeben. Die durchgeführte Studie zeigt, dass geladene Higgs Bosonen in diesem Zerfallskanal nur bei großen Werten von tan(beta) entdeckt werden können. Dennoch kann dieser Zerfallskanal zur H Sensitivität beitragen, wenn andere Zerfallskanäle mit in Betracht gezogen werden. Im Vergleich zu vorherigen Studien konnte die Sensitivität erhöht werden

Abstract:
This dissertation consists of two essays: the first investigates informed trading in the Chinese stock exchanges, and the second examines the persistency of correlation of currency future prices. For the first essay, using a sample of Chinese firms dual-listed in both the China mainland stock exchange and the Hong Kong stock exchange, I investigate the two types of informed trading - insider trading and trading derived from better analysis in the A-and H-share markets. The results suggest that H-shares have relatively more informed trading based on better analysis. In addition, the results from the firm size regression can also be seen as indirect evidence that larger firms tend to have trading with better analysis and less insider trading. These patterns are also confirmed in the sub-period analysis. However, I find no significant relation between informed trading and the relative pricing of A- and H-shares. For the second essay I examine the dynamic correlation between currency futures prices, focusing on the persistency of correlation of currency prices. Using the Dynamic Conditional Correlation model developed by Engle (2002), this study incorporates time-varying correlations into the analysis. The sample includes eight currency futures traded on the Chicago Mercantile Exchange from 1999 to 2008 and the U.S. dollar index future. The study finds that the Canadian dollar has the greater persistency while the Brazilian real has the weakest. No less important, the study finds that the time-varying conditional correlation between currency futures and the U.S. dollar futures is influenced by two types of liquidity: price impacts (Amihud illiquidity) and the logarithm of trading volume.

Abstract:
La première partie des travaux réalisés durant cette thèse a été dédiée à l'élaboration de composés de type LaFe13-xSix (1,2 < x < 2,3) par une méthode de synthèse qui, jusque là, n'avait pas encore été utilisée pour ce type de matériaux : la mécanosynthèse à haute énergie. Il a fallu déterminer les conditions de synthèse et de recuit optimales pour l'obtention d'échantillons monophasés. L'homogénéité de ces derniers a été systématiquement analysée par diffraction des rayons X et microsonde électronique. Les résultats ont montré qu'une microstructure plus fine favorise la formation de la phase désirée : un recuit de 30 minutes (au lieu de 30 jours pour les composés massifs) à 1373K sut à l'obtention d'un composé quasi-monophasé. Ceci représente un gain de temps non négligeable pour tous procédés industriels. D'après les mesures magnétiques eectuées, les composés synthétisés par broyage mécanique possèdent des propriétés magnétiques et magnétocaloriques similaires aux composés massifs. Ils présentent une transition métamagnétique des électrons itinérants induite par le champ ou la température. Leur température de Curie augmente avec le taux de Si, variant de 200K à 235K respectivement lorsque x varie de 1,4 à 2,0 alors que leur variation d'entropie magnétique diminue de 20 J/kg K à 4 J/kg K sous une variation de champ de 0-2 T. La deuxième partie de l'étude a consisté à améliorer les propriétés magnétocaloriques des composés intermétalliques en procédant à l'insertion d'atomes interstitiels tels que l'hydrogène ou le carbone. Conformément à la littérature, les mesures magnétiques ont montré une nette augmentation de la température de transition (jusqu'à température ambiante) dans les deux cas par effet magnétovolumique tout en conservant un eet magnétocalorique important. Les analyses par diffraction des neutrons en température effectuées sur les composés deutérés (hydrogénés) ont permis de suivre l'évolution des données cristallographiques ainsi que des moments magnétiques par atomes de Fe indépendamment des sites cristallographiques qu'ils occupent. Il ressort de cette étude que ces composés présentent un grand intérêt dans la recherche de futurs matériaux magnétocaloriques pour la réfrigération magnétique à température ambiante. Dans le cadre de l'exploration de nouveaux systèmes magnétocaloriques, les propriétés magnétiques et magnétocaloriques des composés Y1-xRxFe2D4;2 (R = Er et Tb) ont également été étudiés en couplant les analyses magnétiques avec les mesures de diffraction des neutrons en fonction de la température et du champ appliqué. Ces travaux ont mis en évidence l'influence importante de la nature et du taux de terre–rare substitué à l'yttrium sur l'eet magnétocalorique.

Abstract:
Le travail de recherche réalisé au cours de cette thèse s’inscrit dans le contexte de l’expérience ATLAS, l’une des quatre grandes expériences auprès du collisionneur LHC. Il fut principalement dédié à la recherche de nouveaux bosons de jauge lourds chargés, appelé W' et prédits par de nombreuses extensions du Modèle Standard de la physique des particules. Ce manuscrit présente une recherche du boson W' se désintégrant en un quark top et un quark beau à travers une approche de couplage effectif, dans des états finals de désintégrations leptoniques du quark top. Cette recherche fut réalisée avec 20.3 fb−1 de données de collision proton-proton, produits par le LHC à une énergie dans le centre de masse de 8 TeV et collectées par le détecteur ATLAS en 2012. Plusieurs scénarios d’études sont envisagés où le boson W' se couple soit à des fermions de chiralité gauche (W'L) soit de chiralité droite (W'R). Une technique d’analyse multivariée utilisant des arbres de décision boostés (BDT) est utilisée afin de mettre évidence un excès de processus de signal dans les données enregistrées. Aucun excès n’est observé au-delà des incertitudes expérimentales pour la statistique de données analysées jusque-là. Une analyse statistique est réalisée afin d’extraire des limites d’exclusion sur la masse et la section efficace de production de la particule. Des masses inférieures à 1.92, 1.80 et 1.70 TeV furent exclues respectivement pour des bosons W'R et W'L, en tenant compte ou non d’effets d’interférence. Les limites d’exclusion sur les sections efficaces de production sont réinterprétées en matière de limite d’exclusion sur le couplage effectif g'/g de la particule. Les limites d’exclusion les plus basses observées sur le rapport g'/g, respectivement de 0.20 et 0.16 pour les recherches de bosons W'R et W'L, furent obtenues pour une masse de boson W'R/L de 0.75 TeV. Une recherche de bosons de Higgs chargés se désintégrant en un quark top et un quark beau est également présentée dans ce manuscrit. Cette dernière repose sur une approche de couplage effectif décrivant un modèle à deux doublets de Higgs de type II. Cette analyse réutilise l’infrastructure développée pour la recherche du boson W' est complétée d’études phénoménologiques liées au calcul de la section efficace de ce processus ainsi que sur la caractérisation des effets de largeur de la résonance recherchée. Les premiers résultats obtenus sur la limite d’exclusion sur la section efficace de production pp → H+→ tb montrent toutefois que cette analyse ne semble pas être en mesure d’exclure un signal de boson H+ pour l’ensemble des scénarios théoriques considérés, compte tenu des faibles sections efficaces de production prédites. En parallèle de ces activités, des développements ont été réalisés pour la simulation rapide du système de calorimétrie FastCaloSim du détecteur ATLAS afin de pallier ses limitations. En particulier, un nouveau modèle de paramétrisation et de simulation rapide de la réponse en énergie du système de calorimétrie est présenté dans ce manuscrit. Ce modèle, toujours en développement, montre des résultats très encourageant pour la simulation d’événements à pion unique et permet de réduire considérablement l’empreinte mémoire de la paramétrisation en comparaison avec des versions précédentes de FastCaloSim, tout en permettant aux futures reparamétrisations d’être plus rapides et automatisées<br>The research work carried out during this Ph.D thesis has been performed in the context of the ATLAS experiment, one of the four major LHC experiments, and was primarily dedicated to the search for a new chaged heavy gauge boson, called W' and predicted by many extensions of the Standard Model of particle physics. This manuscript presents a search for W' boson decaying into a top and a bottom quark through an effective coupling approach, in the lepton plus jets final states. This search is performed with 20.3 fb−1 of proton-proton collision data, produced by the LHC with a center-of-mass energy of 8 TeV and collected by the ATLAS detector in 2012. Several scenarios are considered where the W boson can couple to left-handed (W'L) or right-handed (W'R) fermions. A multivariate techniques based on boosted decision trees is used to search for an excess of W signal process in the recorded data. No excess is observed beyond the experimental uncertainties for the data analysed so far. A statistical analysis is performed in order to extract exclusion limits on the mass and the production cross section of the particle. Masses below 1.92, 1.80 and 1.70 TeV are excluded, respectively for W'R and W'L bosons taking into account or not interference effects. These exclusion limits on the production cross section are also reinterpreted in terms of exclusion limits on the effective coupling g'/g of the particle. The lowest exclusion limits observed on the ratio g'/g are equal to 0.20 and 0.16, respectively, for W'R and W'L searches, and are obtained for a W'R/L mass of 0.75 TeV. A search for charged Higgs boson decaying into a top and a bottom quark is presented in this manuscript. This search is based on an effective coupling approach describing a type II Two Doublet Higgs Model. It reuses the analysis infrastructure developed for the W' search and is completed by phenomenological studies related to the production cross section calculation for the process and the characterisation of the resonance width effects affecting the analysis. Preliminary results on the excluded cross section limits pp → H+→ tb show that the analysis is not able to exclude a signal a H+ boson for all theoretical scenarios considered, due to low production cross sections predicted. In parallel of these activities, several developments have been performed on the fast simulation of the ATLAS calorimeter system in order to overcome its limitations. In particular, a new parametrisation and fast simulation model for the energy response of the calorimeter is presented in this manuscript. This model, still under development, shows encouraging results for simulated single pion event and allows to reduce considerably the memory footprint of the parametrisation compared to previous versions of FastCaloSim, while enabling future reparametrisations to be faster and automated

Abstract:
studies on nanocomposites of biodegradable polymers such as polybutylene adipate co-terephthalate (PBAT) are justified. This polymer is certified for composting; it is printable, suitable for food contact, water resistant, and performs similarly to polyethylene[1, 2] . Metal oxide nanoparticles (NPs) such as MoO3 and ZnO are potential fillers to, in addition to improving mechanical properties, confer antimicrobial, anti-UV activity and modulate the biodegradability of polymer matrices such as that of PBAT[3, 4, 5] . The effects of different concentrations of ZnONPs were observed and compared to MoO3 NPs, whose relevant properties still lack further study. In this work, seven films prepared by casting with CHCl solvent evaporation were studied3 . The tags PBAT, Z1, Z3, Z5, M1, M3 and M5 correspond to the pure polymer samples and their combinations with 0.1; 0.3 and 0.5 % of zinc and molybdenum oxide NPs, by mass, respectively. The Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) ratified the total removal of the solvent and the maintenance of the bands of the main functional groups of the polymeric matrix, even after the incorporation of the NPS. In the thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), only one degradation event was observed for all samples; in M1 and especially in M3 the thermal resistance increased, while, with the addition of zinc oxide, especially in Z5 and Z3, this property was reduced. There was no expressive change in the degradation onset temperature (Tonset ) of M5 in relation to PBAT, suggesting that this concentration of MoO₃ cannot promote increment in the thermal property of this matrix. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) results of M1 and M3 suggested a better dispersion than M5, the only composite in which there was no increase in the degree of crystallinity in relation to pure PBAT, indicating possible agglomeration. In time domain nuclear magnetic resonance (TD-NMR) analysis, the curves of M3 present a narrower base, indicating greater homogeneity and especially good dispersion in this system, corroborating the other analyses. The reduced return time of the magnetization to the longitudinal axis (T1 H) of M5 and the increased molecular mobility of this system were associated with the crystalline rearrangement. When measuring the water activity (aw ) thinking in the application of these films as active packaging, Z3 and M1 stood out, with lower propensity to microbiological attack, and a linear trend (R² &gt; 0.9) was observed for this property with the incorporation of molybdenum nanotrioxide in poly(butylene adipate co-terephthalate). The worst aw data were observed in Z1, with M3 and M5 being similar to Z5. Still, all observed aw values were below the recommended value for food packaging, 0.7 (the value at which susceptibility becomes most relevant). Thus, it was shown to be possible to incorporate zinc and molybdenum metal oxides in the PBAT matrix, via casting, with good distribution and better dispersion of fillers in the range of 0.3% by mass. Moreover, it was observed that different types and proportions of particles resulted in different effects on the microstructure of the matrix (thermal resistance, crystallinity, molecular mobility and water activity), without causing interaction capable of affecting the molecular composition of the material, at levels detectable by FTIR-ATR.

Abstract:
A numerical investigation of laminar natural convection heat transfer from small horizontal wires at near-critical pressures has been carried out with carbon dioxide as the test fluid. The parameters varied are: (i) Pressure (P): 7.50–9.60 MPa, (ii) Bulk fluid temperature (Tb): 5–50°C, (iii) Wall temperature (Tw): 5.1–200°C, and (iv) Wire diameter (D): 25.4, 76.2 and 100 μm. The steady-state Navier-Stokes equations (low Mach number asymptotic form) are solved with variable properties. The results of the numerical simulations agree reasonably well with available experimental data. The dependence of heat transfer coefficient (h) on P, Tb, Tw and D were investigated. The results obtained are as follows: (i) For given P and D, h is strongly dependent on Tb and Tw. (ii) The heat transfer coefficient decreases with increasing values of P (P/Pc &gt; 1). (i) For fixed P, Tw and Tb, the dependence of h on D varies from h ∝ D−0.47 to h ∝ D−0.29 as D increases. (iii) For a given P, the maximum heat transfer coefficient is obtained for conditions where Tb &lt; Tpc &lt; Tw, where Tpc denotes the pseudocritical temperature. Based on the analysis of the temperature and flow field once can qualitatively show that this peak in h when k, Cp and Pr in the fluid peak close to the heated surface.

Abstract:
: The necessity to improve broiler thermotolerance and performance led to the following hypothesis: (a) thethermoregulatory-response threshold for heat production can be altered by thermal manipulation (TM) during incubation so as to improve the acquisition of thermotolerance in the post-hatch broiler;and (b) TM during embryogenesis will improve myoblast proliferation during the embryonic and post-hatch periods with subsequent enhanced muscle growth and meat production. The original objectives of this study were as follow: 1. to assess the timing, temperature, duration, and turning frequency required for optimal TM during embryogenesis; 2. to evaluate the effect of TM during embryogenesis on thermoregulation (heat production and heat dissipation) during four phases: (1) embryogenesis, (2) at hatch, (3) during growth, and (4) during heat challenge near marketing age; 3. to investigate the stimulatory effect of thermotolerance on hormones that regulate thermogenesis and stress (T₄, T₃, corticosterone, glucagon); 4. to determine the effect of TM on performance (BW gain, feed intake, feed efficiency, carcass yield, breast muscle yield) of broiler chickens; and 5. to study the effect of TM during embryogenesis on skeletal muscle growth, including myoblast proliferation and fiber development, in the embryo and post-hatch chicks.This study has achieved all the original objectives. Only the plasma glucagon concentration (objective 3) was not measured as a result of technical obstacles. Background to the topic: Rapid growth rate has presented broiler chickens with seriousdifficulties when called upon to efficiently thermoregulate in hot environmental conditions. Being homeotherms, birds are able to maintain their body temperature (Tb) within a narrow range. An increase in Tb above the regulated range, as a result of exposure to environmental conditions and/or excessive metabolic heat production that often characterize broiler chickens, may lead to a potentially lethal cascade of irreversible thermoregulatory events. Exposure to temperature fluctuations during the perinatal period has been shown to lead to epigenetic temperature adaptation. The mechanism for this adaptation was based on the assumption that environmental factors, especially ambient temperature, have a strong influence on the determination of the “set-point” for physiological control systems during “critical developmental phases.” In order to sustain or even improve broiler performance, TM during the period of embryogenesis when satellite cell population normally expand should increase absolute pectoralis muscle weight in broilers post-hatch. Major conclusions: Intermittent TM (39.5°C for 12 h/day) during embryogenesis when the thyroid and adrenal axis was developing and maturing (E7 to E16 inclusive) had a long lasting thermoregulatory effect that improved thermotolerance of broiler chickens exposed to acute thermal stress at market age by lowering their functional Tb set point, thus lowering metabolic rate at hatch, improving sensible heat loss, and significantly decreasing the level of stress. Increased machine ventilation rate was required during TM so as to supply the oxygen required for the periods of increased embryonic development. Enhancing embryonic development was found to be accomplished by a combination of pre-incubation heating of embryos for 12 h at 30°C, followed by increasing incubation temperature to 38°C during the first 3 days of incubation. It was further facilitated by increasing turning frequency of the eggs to 48 or 96 times daily. TM during critical phases of muscle development in the late-term chick embryo (E16 to E18) for 3 or 6 hours (39.5°C) had an immediate stimulatory effect on myoblast proliferation that lasted for up to two weeks post-hatch; this was followed by increased hypertrophy at later ages. The various incubation temperatures and TM durations focused on the fine-tuning of muscle development and growth processes during late-term embryogenesis as well as in post-hatch chickens.

Abstract:
The necessity to improve broiler thermotolerance and live performance led to the following hypothesis: Appropriate comprehensive incubation treatments that include significant temperature management changes will promote angiogenesis and will improve acquisition of thermotolerance and carcass quality of heavy broilers through epigenetic adaptation. It was based on the following questions: 1. Can TM during embryogenesis of broilers induce a longer-lasting thermoregulatory memory (up to marketing age of 10 wk) that will improve acquisition of thermotolerance as well as increased breast meat yield in heavy broilers? 2. The improved sensible heat loss (SHL) suggests an improved peripheral vasodilation process. Does elevated temperature during incubation affect vasculogenesis and angiogenesis processes in the chick embryo? Will such create subsequent advantages for heavy broilers coping with adverse hot conditions? 3. What are the changes that occur in the PO/AH that induce the changes in the threshold response for heat production/heat loss based on the concept of epigenetic temperature adaptation? The original objectives of this study were as follow: a. to assess the improvement of thermotolerance efficiency and carcass quality of heavy broilers (~4 kg); b. toimproveperipheral vascularization and angiogenesis that improve sensible heat loss (SHL); c. to study the changes in the PO/AH thermoregulatory response for heat production/losscaused by modulating incubation temperature. To reach the goals: a. the effect of TM on performance and thermotolerance of broilers reared to 10 wk of age was studied. b. the effect of preincubation heating with an elevated temperature during the 1ˢᵗ 3 to 5 d of incubation in the presence of modified fresh air flow coupled with changes in turning frequency was elucidated; c.the effect of elevated temperature on vasculogenesis and angiogenesis was determined using in ovo and whole embryo chick culture as well as HIF-1α VEGF-α2 VEGF-R, FGF-2, and Gelatinase A (MMP2) gene expression. The effects on peripheral blood system of post-hatch chicks was determined with an infrared thermal imaging technique; c. the expression of BDNF was determined during the development of the thermal control set-point in the preoptic anterior hypothalamus (PO/AH). Background to the topic: Rapid growth rate has presented broiler chickens with seriousdifficulties when called upon to efficiently thermoregulate in hot environmental conditions. Being homeotherms, birds are able to maintain their body temperature (Tb) within a narrow range. An increase in Tb above the regulated range, as a result of exposure to environmental conditions and/or excessive metabolic heat production that often characterize broiler chickens, may lead to a potentially lethal cascade of irreversible thermoregulatory events. Exposure to temperature fluctuations during the perinatal period has been shown to lead to epigenetic temperature adaptation. The mechanism for this adaptation was based on the assumption that environmental factors, especially ambient temperature, have a strong influence on the determination of the “set-point” for physiological control systems during “critical developmental phases.” Recently, Piestunet al. (2008) demonstrated for the first time that TM (an elevated incubation temperature of 39.5°C for 12 h/d from E7 to E16) during the development/maturation of the hypothalamic-hypophyseal-thyroid axis (thermoregulation) and the hypothalamic-hypophyseal-adrenal axis (stress) significantly improved the thermotolerance and performance of broilers at 35 d of age. These phenomena raised two questions that were addressed in this project: 1. was it possible to detect changes leading to the determination of the “set point”; 2. Did TM have a similar long lasting effect (up to 70 d of age)? 3. Did other TM combinations (pre-heating and heating during the 1ˢᵗ 3 to 5 d of incubation) coupled with changes in turning frequency have any performance effect? The improved thermotolerance resulted mainly from an efficient capacity to reduce heat production and the level of stress that coincided with an increase in SHL (Piestunet al., 2008; 2009). The increase in SHL (Piestunet al., 2009) suggested an additional positive effect of TM on vasculogenesis and angiogensis. 4. In order to sustain or even improve broiler performance, TM during the period of the chorioallantoic membrane development was thought to increase vasculogenesis and angiogenesis providing better vasodilatation and by that SHL post-hatch.
