Un modelo de riesgo soberano con recursos naturales
Authors: Esquivel Carlos
Published: July 2022

Este artículo propone un modelo para estudiar cómo la explotación de recursos naturales afecta al riesgo soberano de países emergentes. El modelo incluye inversión, producción en tres sectores y recursos naturales. En la presencia de un mayor acervo de recursos naturales, el Gobierno incrementa la inversión para explotarlos y aumenta el consumo, ya que el ingreso permanente es mayor. Tanto la mayor inversión como el consumo adicional son financiados con un aumento de deuda externa. Adicionalmente, hay una reasignación de factores de la producción hacia bienes no comerciables, lo cual aprecia el tipo de cambio real y aumenta la volatilidad del ingreso comerciable. Los incrementos en volatilidad y deuda generan un aumento en la probabilidad de impago y, con ello, un incremento en la tasa de interés. Asimismo, la volatilidad del consumo también aumenta, lo cual puede disminuir las ganancias de bienestar provenientes de una mayor riqueza de recursos naturales.

Authors: Alberola Enrique , Estrada Ángel , Kataryniuk Iván , Viani Francesca
Published: July 2022

El impacto económico de la COVID-19 ha supuesto la ampliación de los desequilibrios globales, revirtiendo el proceso de corrección parcial de la década anterior en los saldos por cuenta corriente (o desequilibrios de flujo). De igual forma, los desequilibrios de las posiciones de inversión internacional (o desequilibrios de stock), que seguían creciendo, han experimentado un incremento adicional. En este artículo se analizan los principales factores que han afectado a los desequilibrios globales como consecuencia de la pandemia. La desigual recuperación global contribuye a que los desequilibrios sigan ampliándose en el corto plazo. Además, la pandemia está provocando o acelerando cambios de fondo en la economía global en ámbitos tales como la digitalización productiva y financiera, la organización del trabajo o, de un modo más indirecto, en la fiscalidad internacional y en la transición hacia una economía verde. Estos cambios estructurales afectarán a los desequilibrios globales en el largo plazo, aunque el signo y la magnitud de su impacto sean aún inciertos.

Design and testing of a novel cost-effective lethal ovitrap for the control of Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus 1762)
Authors: Manikandan S. , Vijayakumar B. , Mathivanan A. , Vijayalakshmi K. , Bharathi A. , Poopathi S.
Published: July 2022

An indigenous, novel, cost-effective, non-electric lethal ovitrap was designed for the dengue vector. The bacteria Bacillus cereus VCRC 641 was grown in a cost-effective culture medium of chicken feather waste. The culture supernatant was used as ovitrap attraction of the dengue vector of Aedes aegypti (Linnaeus 1762). Twenty experiments with 80 ovitraps, three experiments with 15,000 ovitraps, and three experiments with 3,000 ovitraps in the laboratory, outdoor and households respectively conducted, to assess the efficacy, showed that the ovitrap with B. cereus culture supernatant (10%) significantly attracted the gravid A. aegypti to lay eggs in all experimental traps. More importantly, the first instar larvae from the eggs on the traps had the mortality immediately. The novelty of this trap is proved to exhibit a dual function for attracting gravid mosquitoes and killing the newly emerged larvae. This is the first report asserting the dual role of a cost-effective, non-electric ovitrap to control dengue vectors. The ovitrap contains only simple components of a plastic bowl, a cylinder, and a plastic plate. The total cost of these materials per trap was Rs15 only. The laboratory study showed that the experimental ovitrap attracted >10 times the control traps (experimental: 1465.90±251.48 and control: 140.00±23.95). This is the first report about the efficacy of an indigenously designed lethal ovitrap for attracting dengue vector.

Authors: Gokulakrishnaa R. K. , Thirunavukkarasu Selvamuthukumaran
Published: July 2022

Assessment of oviposition substrates and mating duration on the fecundity and egg hatchability of eri silkworm Samia ricini Donovan, revealed that maximum disease free layings were recorded in the control (353 eggs with 98 % hatchability) followed by the treatment, mating duration of six hours (332 eggs with 96 % hatchability). Poor egg laying and egg hatchability was noticed in one hour (151 eggs with 41 % hatchability). Correlation coefficients between mating duration, fecundity and egg hatchability showed strong positive correlation. Oviposition substrate’s impact on fecundity and egg hatchability revealed that gada cloth gave better results (344 eggs with 96% hatchability) whereas polythene cover recorded poor fecundity (203 eggs) and jack fruit kharika recorded poor hatchability (90 %). A minimum of six hours of mating duration is needed for the eri moth to attain its full fecundity potential and better egg hatchability.

Authors: TAŞYURDU Yasemin , TÜRKOĞLU Naime Şeyda
Published: July 2022

In this paper, we introduce a tiling approach to (p,q)-Fibonacci and (p,q)-Lucas numbers that generalize of the well-known Fibonacci, Lucas, Pell, Pell-Lucas, Jacobsthal ve Jacobsthal-Lucas numbers. We show that nth (p,q)-Fibonacci number is interpreted as the number of ways to tile a 1×n board with cells labeled 1,2,...,n using colored 1×1 squares and 1×2 dominoes, where there are p kind colors for squares and q kind colors for dominoes. Then nth (p,q)-Lucas number is interpreted as the number of ways to tile a circular 1×n board with squares and dominoes. We also present some generalized Fibonacci and Lucas identities using this tiling approach.

Generating Isolated Attosecond X-Ray Pulses by Wavefront Control in a Seeded Free-Electron Laser
Authors: Xiao Yaozong , Feng Chao , Liu Bo
Published: July 2022

We proposed a simple method based on the seeded free-electron laser (FEL) to generate fully coherent X-ray pulses with durations at dozens of attosecond level. The echo-enabled harmonic generation technique is utilized to generate the fully coherent laser pulse covering the water-window range. A wavefront rotation laser is adopted as the seed to tailor the longitudinal contour of the radiation pulse. Due to the sensitivity of seeded FEL to external lasers, this method can effectively inhibit the bunching of the adjacent regions while preserving an isolated bunching in the middle. Sending such an electron beam into a short undulator, simulation results show that ultrashort X-ray pulses with peak power of GW level and pulse duration as short as 86 attoseconds can be generated. The proposed scheme can make it possible to study the electronic dynamic of the valence electrons of which the time scale is about 100 attoseconds and may open up a new frontier of ultrafast science.
LEO Mega Constellations: Review of Development, Impact, Surveillance, and Governance

Published: July 2022

The rapid development of Low Earth Orbit (LEO) mega constellations has significantly contributed to several aspects of human scientific progress, such as communication, navigation, and remote sensing. However, unrestrained deployment of constellations has also strained orbital resources and increased spacecraft congestion in LEO, which seriously affects the safety of in-orbit operations of many space assets. For the long-term and sustainable development of space activities in LEO regions, space environment stability must be maintained using more rational surveillance and governance mechanisms. This review contributes to the research gap and facilitates the development of LEO mega constellations. First, the current development of typical LEO mega constellations is reviewed, followed by the analysis of the impact of LEO mega constellations in terms of astronomical observation, spacecraft safety in orbit, and space environment evolution. Then, two main solutions to conduct the challenges raised by LEO mage constellations are elaborated: one is to ensure the safety operation of spacecraft using space surveillance infrastructures and space situational awareness technologies, and the other is to accelerate the deorbit of constellation satellites at the end of life based on postmission disposal and active removal methods. Finally, the future development and potential research directions of LEO mega constellations are prospected.
