description: We theoretically study a silicon triple quantum dot (TQD) system coupled to a superconducting microwave resonator. The response signal of an injected probe signal can be used to extract information about the level structure by measuring the transmission and phase shift of the output field. This information can further be used to gain knowledge about the valley splittings and valley phases in the individual dots. Since relevant valley states are typically split by several $μ\text{eV}$, a finite temperature or an applied external bias voltage is required to populate energetically excited states. The theoretical methods in this paper include a capacitor model to fit experimental charging energies, an extended Hubbard model to describe the tunneling dynamics, a rate equation model to find the occupation probabilities, and an input-output model to determine the response signal of the resonator.

description: Because of their perishable nature and the impact of their quality on consumers, agricultural products have always raised important problems of coordination and control with high transaction costs. The recent period in the agrifood industry has registered substantial evolution in devices intended to provide vertical coordination among the various agents of value chains. The most noticeable evolution might be the progressive dismantlement of collective organizations in favor of a contractual approach that would be more compatible with market-oriented policies. In this paper, we revisit the role of marketing boards, mainly through the Canadian experience, more specifically in the Province of Québec. Examining their nature and their role, we intend to better understand the type of problems marketing boards were trying to face and still do, and to assess their success and failures in organizing complex transactions with strong asymmetries among partners who need to coordinate while keeping decision rights distinct. We shall argue that their occurrence in very different contexts as well as their resilience is rooted in a relatively successful combination of organizational properties, embedded in their hybrid nature, and institutional legitimacy, thanks to the guarantees they provide.

description: Higgs bosons from an extended Higgs sector, such as a two-Higgs-doublet model, can have greatly enhanced coupling to the bottom quark. Producing such a Higgs boson in association with a single high-p_T bottom quark via g b -> h b allows for the suppression of backgrounds. Previous studies have instead used g g,qbar q -> bbar b h as the production mechanism, which is valid only if both b quarks are at high p_T. We calculate g b -> h b at next-to-leading order in QCD, and find that it is an order of magnitude larger than g g,qbar q -> bbar b h at the Fermilab Tevatron and the CERN Large Hadron Collider. This production mechanism improves the prospects for the discovery of a Higgs boson with enhanced coupling to the b quark.

description: Using a unique dataset of a commercial microfinance institution (MFI) in Tanzania this paper investigates first whether agricultural firms have a different probability to get a loan and whether their loans are differently volume rationed than loans to non-agricultural firms. Second, we analyze whether agricultural firms repay their loans with different delinquencies than non-agricultural firms. Our results reveal that agricultural firms face higher obstacles to get credit but as soon as they have access to credit, their loans are not differently volume rationed than those of non-agricultural firms. Furthermore, agricultural firms are less often delinquent when paying back their loans than non-agricultural firms. Our findings suggest that a higher risk exposition typically attributed to agricultural production must not necessarily lead to higher credit risk. They also show that the investigated MFI overestimates the credit risk of agricultural clients and, hence, should reconsider its risk assessment practice to be able to increase lending to the agricultural sector. In addition, our results might indicate that farmers qualify less often for a loan as they do not fit into the standard microcredit product.

description: We investigate the modification of meson spectral densities in dense nuclear matter at zero temperature. These effects are studied in a fully relativistic mean field model which goes beyond the linear density approximation and also includes baryon resonances. In particular, the role of N*(1520) and N*(1720) on the rho meson spectral density is highlighted. Even though the nucleon-nucleon loop and the nucleon-resonance loop contribute with the opposite sign, an overall reduction of rho meson mass is still observed at high density. Importantly, it is shown that the resonances cause substantial broadening of the rho meson spectral density in matter and also induces non-trivial momentum dependence. The spectral density of the a0 meson is also shown. We study the dispersion relations and collective oscillations induced by the rho meson propagation in nuclear matter together with the influence of the mixing of rho with the a0 meson. The relevant expression for the plasma frequency is also recovered analytically in the appropriate limit.

description: Although the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region has witnessed a long series of conflicts since the end of the Second World War, it is now in the unprecedented situation where nearly all MENA states are involved to a certain extent in ongoing conflict (e.g. in the Iraq–Syria area; Libya; Yemen). MENA states are involved to different degrees in these conflicts, ranging from direct involvement on the ground or in the air, to the arming and training of armed non-state actors. This report assesses the evolution of the armed forces, procurement and the defence industry in the countries of the MENA region, starting with the major regional powers, whose leverage
 extends across the region. Second, it looks at the middle regional powers, those who have some capacity for power projection but mostly at the sub-regional level. This is followed by analysis of the remaining states, those with little or no capacity for power projection. Finally, the report looks at those states on whose territory war is currently being waged, where governments and non-state actors are vying for control of the national territory. The report ends with a forecast for military development in the region.

description: We analyze clouds in the earth's atmosphere using ground-based sky cameras. An accurate segmentation of clouds in the captured sky/cloud image is difficult, owing to the fuzzy boundaries of clouds. Several techniques have been proposed that use color as the discriminatory feature for cloud detection. In the existing literature, however, analysis of daytime and nighttime images is considered separately, mainly because of differences in image characteristics and applications. In this paper, we propose a light-weight deep-learning architecture called CloudSegNet. It is the first that integrates daytime and nighttime (also known as nychthemeron) image segmentation in a single framework, and achieves state-of-the-art results on public databases.

description: In the kinematical region where the center of mass energy is much larger than all other scales, the Drell-Yan process can be formulated in the target rest frame in terms of the same color dipole cross section as low Bjorken-x deep inelastic scattering. Since the mechanisms for heavy dilepton production appear very different in the dipole approach and in the conventional parton model, one may wonder whether these two formulations really represent the same physics. We perform a comparison of numerical calculations in the color dipole approach with calculations in the next-to-leading order parton model. For proton-proton scattering, the results are very similar at low x_2 from fixed target to RHIC energies, confirming the close connection between these two very different approaches. We also compare the transverse momentum distributions of Drell-Yan dileptons predicted in both formulations. The range of applicability of the dipole formulation and the impact of future Drell-Yan data from RHIC for determining the color dipole cross section are discussed. A detailed derivation of the dipole formulation of the Drell-Yan process is also included.

description: Collective motion is found in various animal systems, active suspensions and robotic or virtual agents. This is often understood using high level models that directly encode selected empirical features, such as co-alignment and cohesion. Can these features be shown to emerge from an underlying, low-level principle? We find that they emerge naturally under Future State Maximisation (FSM). Here agents perceive a visual representation of the world around them, such as might be recorded on a simple retina, and then move to maximise the number of different visual environments that they expect to be able to access in the future. Such a control principle may confer evolutionary fitness in an uncertain world by enabling agents to deal with a wide variety of future scenarios. The collective dynamics that spontaneously emerge under FSM resemble animal systems in several qualitative aspects, including cohesion, co-alignment and collision suppression, none of which are explicitly encoded in the model. A multi-layered neural network trained on simulated trajectories is shown to represent a heuristic mimicking FSM. Similar levels of reasoning would seem to be accessible under animal cognition, demonstrating a possible route to the emergence of collective motion in social animals directly from the control principle underlying FSM. Such models may also be good candidates for encoding into possible future realisations of artificial "intelligent" matter, able to sense light, process information and move.

description: The FORS Deep Field project is a multi-colour, multi-object spectroscopic investigation of an approx. 7 times 7 region near the south galactic pole based mostly on observations carried out with the FORS instruments attached to the VLT telescopes. It includes the QSO Q 0103-260 (z = 3.36). The goal of this study is to improve our understanding of the formation and evolution of galaxies in the young Universe. In this paper the field selection, the photometric observations, and the data reduction are described. The source detection and photometry of objects in the FORS Deep Field is discussed in detail. A combined B and I selected UBgRIJKs photometric catalog of 8753 objects in the FDF is presented and its properties are briefly discussed. The formal 50% completeness limits for point sources, derived from the co-added images, are 25.64, 27.69, 26.86, 26.68, 26.37, 23.60 and 21.57 in U, B, g, R, I, J and Ks (Vega-system), respectively. A comparison of the number counts in the FORS Deep Field to those derived in other deep field surveys shows very good agreement.

description: The linear continuity of a function defined on a vector space means that its restriction on every affine line is continuous. For functions defined on $\mathbb R^m$ this notion is near to the separate continuity for which it is required only the continuity on the straight lines which are parallel to coordinate axes. The classical Lebesgue theorem states that every separately continuous function $f:\mathbb R^m\to\mathbb R$ is of the $(m-1)$-th Baire class. In this paper we prove that every linearly continuous function $f:\mathbb R^m\to\mathbb R$ is of the first Baire class. Moreover, we obtain the following result. If $X$ is a Baire cosmic topological vector space, $Y$ is a Tychonoff topological space and $f:X\to Y$ is a Borel-measurable (even BP-measurable) linearly continuous function, then $f$ is $F_σ$-measurable. Using this theorem we characterize the discontinuity point set of an arbitrary linearly continuous function on $\mathbb R^m$. In the final part of the article we prove that any $F_σ$-measurable function $f:\partial U\to \mathbb R$ defined on the boundary of a strictly convex open set $U\subset\mathbb R^m$ can be extended to a linearly continuous function $\bar f:X\to \mathbb R$. This fact shows that in the ``descriptive sense'' the linear continuity is not better than the $F_σ$-measurability.

description: Strictly lytic or virulent bacteriophages against Staphylococcus aureus belong to order Caudovirales and com-prise predominantly two genera: Kayvirus and Rosenblumvirus. Representatives of both taxonomic groups are well known as safe and viable antibacterial agents. Phages of the genus Kayvirus show usually a broad host range activity against clinical isolates of S. aureus. Nevertheless continuous isolation of new phages against these bacteria is required in order to provide sufficient activity for therapy of biofilms or to prevent phage inactivation by neutralizing antibodies. In the present study, we describe an approach for isolation of lytic bacteriophages of the genus Kayvirus by mitomycin C induction of clinical isolates of S. aureus. Our findings suggest the clinical isolates of S. aureus a reach source for lytic bacteriophages. However taking into account the inducibility of the Kayvirus representatives it have to be evalu-ated a presence of further unknown life cycles for these bacteriophages such as pseudolysogeny.
Key words: bacteriophage isolation, mitomycin C, Staphylococcus aureus, Kayvirus, lytic bacteriophages,
pseudolysogenic bacteriophages.

description: We investigate the phase structure of dense QCD using the Schwinger-Dyson equation (SDE) with the improved ladder approximation in the Landau gauge. We use the gluon propagator with the electric mode corrected by Debye screening and the magnetic mode corrected by Landau damping. We solve the coupled SDE for the Majorana masses of the quark and antiquark (separately from the SDE for the Dirac mass) in the low density and intermediate density regions. In the low density region, both the SDEs for the Majorana masses and the Dirac mass have nontrivial solutions that correspond to the color symmetry breaking (CSB) vacuum and the chiral symmetry breaking ($χ$SB) vacuum. Comparing the values of the effective potential in the two vacua, we show that the phase transition from the $χ$SB vacuum to the CSB vacuum is of first order. The resultant value of the critical chemical potential is about 210 MeV, which is smaller than that obtained from the SDE analysis including only the Dirac mass. The momentum dependences of the Majorana masses of the quark and antiquark are shown to be quite different, although the masses are of the same order.

description: Effects of two kinds of multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) on cells were examined. The effects of MWNT-7, which has been reported to be carcinogenic, and MWCNT-B, whose toxicity is unclear, were examined in both epithelial cells and macrophages. Human lung carcinoma A549 cells were used as representative epithelial cells and differentiated human monocyte THP-1 cells, as well as rat pulmonary macrophages NR8383, were employed to examine possible harmful effects of the MWCNTs. The MWCNTs induced the production of chemokines such as interleukin-8 (IL-8). MWCNTs were found to more strongly affect macrophages than epithelial cells. In addition, the toxicity was more pronounced in the MWNT-7 exposed cells than in those exposed to MWCNT-B. Cytochalasin D and amiloride treatment of differentiated THP-1 cells reduced cell-associated MWCNTs and IL-8 induction. To confirm these cellular influences in vivo, intratracheal administration of each type of MWCNT was performed by pharyngeal aspiration in the mouse lung. Analysis of bronchoalveolar lavage fluid (BALF) showed increase of inflammatory monocyte in MWNT-7 exposed animals at 1week after. In addition, neutrophils in the BALF were also significantly increased MWNT-7 exposed animals at 1 week and 1 month after. Aspiration of MWNT-7 caused formation of granulomas in the lung. Formation of the granulomas was not observed in the case of MWCNT-B. These results suggest that cellular uptake of the MWCNTs by phagocytosis and chemokine induction is important aspects of their toxicity.

description: The impact of stellar multiplicity on the evolution of planet-forming disks is still the subject of debate. Here we present and analyze disk structures around ten multiple stellar systems that were included in an unbiased, high spatial resolution survey performed with ALMA of 32 protoplanetary disks in the Taurus star-forming region. At the unprecedented spatial resolution of ~0.12" we detect and spatially resolve the disks around all primary stars, and those around eight secondary and one tertiary star. The dust radii of disks around multiple stellar systems are smaller than those around single stars in the same stellar mass range and in the same region. The disks in multiple stellar systems also show a steeper decay of the millimeter continuum emission at the outer radius than disks around single stars, suggestive of the impact of tidal truncation on the shape of the disks in multiple systems. However, the observed ratio between the dust disk radii and the observed separation of the stars in the multiple systems is consistent with analytic predictions of the effect of tidal truncation only if the eccentricities of the binaries are rather high (typically >0.5), or if the observed dust radii are a factor of two smaller than the gas radii, as is typical for isolated systems. Similar high-resolution studies targeting the gaseous emission from disks in multiple stellar systems are required to resolve this question.

description: The 31 brightest galaxies (m_B < 15 mag) inside the virial radius of the Fornax cluster were observed from the centres to the outskirts with the Multi Unit Spectroscopic Explorer on the Very Large Telescope. These observations provide detailed high-resolution maps of the line-of-sight kinematics and line strengths of the stars and ionised gas reaching 2-3 Re for 21 early-type galaxies and 1-2 Re for 10 late-type galaxies. The majority of the galaxies are regular rotators, with eight hosting a kinematically distinct core. Only two galaxies are slow rotators. The mean age, total metallicity, and [Mg/Fe] abundance ratio in the bright central region inside 0.5 Re and in the galaxy outskirts are presented. Extended emission-line gas is detected in 13 galaxies, most of them are late-type objects with wide-spread star formation. The measured structural properties are analysed in relation to the galaxies' position in the projected phase space of the cluster. This shows that the Fornax cluster appears to consist of three main groups of galaxies inside the virial radius: the old core; a clump of galaxies, which is aligned with the local large-scale structure and was accreted soon after the formation of the core; and a group of galaxies that fell in more recently.

description: This paper explores how the workshop, one of most ubiquitous terms and practices of contemporary life, has its origins in early twentieth century experimental theatre. It traces its shift from the nineteenth century shopfloor, where it was replaced by industrial factories, to pre-World War 1 university seminars in the USA. The famous 47 Workshop of George Pierce Baker at Harvard, a playwriting seminar, created a model for a theatre laboratory that slowly gained a following outside the academy. From there the workshop becomes a catchword for experimentation in the theatre and the new media radio and television. The paper provides a specific focus on how American philanthropy promoted the workshop idea in the 1950s and 1960s both home and abroad. The history and dissemination of the term and practice can be traced to a particular conjunction of factors within the US academy and philanthropy, which supported the rise of modernist theatre. This led in turn to a global distribution of workshop thinking. In this way the particular format developed by and associated with non-conventional theatre forms permeated contemporary thinking and pedagogical practice.

Edeago fig. 66, spermateca fig. 67, sesto urotergo libero del maschio fig. 68.
 Comparazioni: L’edeago della nuova specie è simile a quello di G. golbachi PACE, 1990 dell’Argentina. Se ne distingue per l’armatura genitale interna semplice e non avvolta in numerose spire come in golbachi. Il sesto urotergo libero del maschio è molto differente nelle due specie: due spine laterali molto distanziate al margine posteriore nella nuova specie, due lobi triangolari mediani contigui in golbachi.
 Etimologia: La nuova specie ha nome che significa “semplice della Guyana Francese ” a motivo della semplicità della forma dell’edeago, rispetto a quello più complesso di golbachi.

Weak Decay of Lambda Hypernuclei

description: In this review we discuss the present status of strange nuclear physics, with special attention to the weak decay of Lambda hypernuclei. The models proposed for the evaluation of the Lambda decay widths are summarized and their results are compared with the data. Despite the recent intensive investigations, the main open problem remains a sound theoretical interpretation of the large experimental values of the ratio G_n/G_p. Although recent works offer a step forward in the solution of the puzzle, further efforts must be invested in order to understand the detailed dynamics of the non-mesonic decay. Even if, by means of single nucleon spectra measurements, the error bars on G_n/G_p have been considerably reduced very recently at KEK, a clean extraction of G_n/G_p is needed. What is missing at present, but planned for the next future, are measurements of 1) nucleon energy spectra in double coincidence and 2) nucleon angular correlations: such observations allow to disentangle the nucleons produced in one- and two-body induced decays and lead to a direct determination of G_n/G_p. For the asymmetric non-mesonic decay of polarized hypernuclei the situation is even more puzzling. Indeed, strong inconsistencies appear already among data. A recent experiment obtained a positive intrinsic Lambda asymmetry parameter, a_{Lambda}, for 5_{Lambda}He. This is in complete disagreement with a previous measurement, which obtained a large and negative a_{Lambda} for p-shell hypernuclei, and with theory, which predicts a negative value moderately dependent on nuclear structure effects. Also in this case, improved experiments establishing with certainty the sign and magnitude of a_{Lambda} for s- and p-shell hypernuclei will provide a guidance for a deeper understanding of hypernuclear dynamics and decay mechanisms.
