description: A nonlinear production function can cause gambling or insuring in a risk situation. This result holds independently of the shape of the utility function for income. When a random variable enters an entrepreneur's production function with diminishing returns, profit maximization behavior can be likened to in. suring. When the random variable enters with increasing returns, the behavior can be likened to gambling. Gambling and insuring do not necessarily depend on preferences and values; they may reflect rational adaptations to different environments.

description: We consider extra dimensional gauge theories on an interval. We first review the derivation of the consistent boundary conditions (BC's) from the action principle. These BC's include choices that give rise to breaking of the gauge symmetries. The boundary conditions could be chosen to coincide with those commonly applied in orbifold theories, but there are many more possibilities. To investigate the nature of gauge symmetry breaking via BC's we calculate the elastic scattering amplitudes for longitudinal gauge bosons. We find that using a consistent set of BC's the terms in these amplitudes that explicitly grow with energy always cancel without having to introduce any additional scalar degree of freedom, but rather by the exchange of Kaluza--Klein (KK) gauge bosons. This suggests that perhaps the SM Higgs could be completely eliminated in favor of some KK towers of gauge fields. We show that from the low-energy effective theory perspective this seems to be indeed possible. We display an extra dimensional toy model, where BC's introduce a symmetry breaking pattern and mass spectrum that resembles that in the standard model.

description: This study investigated the extent to which statistical heterogeneity among results of multiple studies on soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration rate in response to conventional tillage (CT) and no-till (NT) can be related to one or more characteristics of the studies. The analysis employed a random effect meta-regression technique using the data obtained from recently published experimental trials under continuous corn (CC) and corn soybean (CS) rotation system from selected Corn Belt states. Regarding the difference in the rate of SOC sequestration between NT and CT, our results shows that the percentage of heterogeneity in the true treatment effect that is attributable to between-study variability is 49%, whereas 51 % is attributable to within-study sampling variability. We find that 26% of the between-study variance is explained by the explanatory variables considered, and the remaining between-study variance appears almost zero. The regression results support the argument that the difference between NT and CT decreases as measurement depth increases. The results also show that the higher the initial SOC the higher the NT SOC sequestration rate relative to the CT sequestration rate. A test for publication biases in the analysis indicated no evidence for the presence of small-study effects.
In situ acceleration in the galactic center arc

Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: For the nonthermal radio emission of the Galactic Center Arc in situ electron acceleration is imperative. The observed radio spectrum can be modeled by a transport equation for the relativistic electrons which includes particle acceleration by electric fields, momentum diffusion via scattering by magnetohydrodynamical turbulence and energy losses by synchrotron radiation. The accelerating electric fields can be regarded as a natural consequence of multiple reconnection events, caused by the interaction between a molecular cloud and the Arc region. The radio spectrum and even the recently detected 150 GHz emission, explicitely originating from the interaction regions of a molecular cloud with the magnetized Arc, can be explained in terms of quasi-monoenergetically distributed relativistic electrons with a typical energy of about 10 GeV accelerated in stochastically distributed magnetic reconnection zones.

We study the decoherence due to nonlinear (quadratic) coupling, focusing on the experimentally relevant 1/f and Ohmic noise power spectra. For 1/f noise strong higher-order effects influence the evolution.

A Medication Management Intervention Across Care Transitions
Creators: name: Davis, Diane
Publisher: name: University of Massachusetts Amherst
Year: 2015

Accurate medication reconciliation with every transition of care is necessary to prevent and eliminate medication discrepancies and errors that may lead to increased hospital readmissions and potential adverse events related to medication errors. For the older population, this is especially important when considering the increasing rates of polypharmacy in this age group. This capstone project evaluated a nurse-led medication reconciliation program, including teaching after patient discharge from a hospital or facility to home, and coordination and communication with patient’s primary care provider. The project measured issues with medication reconciliation across care transitions at the individual, provider, system, and community levels, and the impact of nursing interventions through process and outcomes measures. The goals of the program are to support patient safety, improve patient ability to self-manage medication therapy independently or with family support, increase health care quality and perception of quality of life, and decrease health care costs. From a public health perspective, expansion of this nurse-led program model has potential for significant positive effect on health care management and outcomesacross a larger population.

description: This paper introduces technology choice and credit access constraints in Melitz (2003) model under a dynamic setting to explain the factors that limit the prospects of a firm from availing trade liberalization benefits. Two such constraints which are specifically relevant in a developing country context are firm's access to credit and frontier level technology. The theoretical model confirms that firms face varying levels of credit constraints depending on their initial productivity and small firms are more constrained compared to large firms. Thus credit constrained firms operating below the production frontier may never be able to cross the minimum productivity threshold required to enter and sustain in a foreign market. The empirical evidence of the model is derived by analyzing the firm level data for five Latin American countries. The empirical findings indicate that firms are constrained both in technology adoption and the extensive margin of trade The study is significant as it focuses on firm level constraints which impact a country's participation in international trade by analyzing both theoretically and empirically the impact of credit constraints on the extensive and intensive margins of trade. An important policy implication of this study, for increasing exports, could be the diversion of public resources from subsidizing production to extending credits to prospective exporters which will ultimately result in directing resources towards more productive sectors of the economy.

description: This paper studies the impact of agglomeration and selection on firms' total factor productivity (TFP) distributions depending on their spatial location, specifically in science parks and large cities in Taiwan. The TFP distributions indicate a mean-shift and greater dispersion whenever firms benefit from agglomeration economies. However, selection due to competition may cause left truncation of the distribution. The empirical analysis shows that firms located in science parks have productivity that lags compared to those located in large cities and they benefit mainly from localization externalities.

All the compounds were characterized by a combination of multinuclear NMR and IR spectroscopy as well as elemental analysis. Furthermore, the Ru(II) and Ir(III) catalysts were applied to asymmetric transfer hydrogenation of acetophenone derivatives using 2-propanol as a hydrogen source. The results showed that the corresponding alcohols could be obtained with good activity (up to 55% ee and 99% conversion) under mild conditions. Notably, [Ir((Ph2PO)-C6H9N2Ph)(C5Me5)Cl2]Cl (5) is more active than the other analogous complexes in the transfer hydrogenation (up to 81% ee).

We report on the status of the EPOS IP project at the end of the first two years planned to be dedicated to the implementation of services from a technical, legal, governance and financial point of view. This document also describes the strategy for assessing the impact and includes an update of the risk register.

Four strategic activities characterize the EPOS IP project and we detail achievements and results for each of them: Implementation of TCS and ICS from a technical, legal, governance and financial point of view, Harmonization with national strategies and priorities, Communication with stakeholders, Management and coordination with the EPOS-ERIC legal establishment.

The EPOS IP project has submitted to the EC its first Scientific and Technical Periodic Report scheduled at M18. This report (for the period M1-18) has been approved by the European Commission. The present document contains an update of the M18 EC scientific report, but it is structured to summarize the achievements following the project concept and strategic work plan.
Anisotropies in the redshift-space correlations of galaxy groups and clusters I: Simulated catalogues

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We analyse the correlation function of mock galaxy clusters in redshift space. We constructed several mock catalogues designed to mimic the selection biases inherent in a variety of observational surveys. We explore different effects that contribute to the distortion of the clustering pattern; the pairwise velocity distribution of galaxy systems, coherent bulk motions, redshift errors and systematics in cluster identification. Our tests show that the redshift-space clustering pattern of galaxy systems is highly influenced by effects associated with the identification procedure from two dimensional surveys. These systems show a spuriously large correlation amplitude, an effect that is present and even stronger in a subsample whose angular positions coincide with 3-dimensional identified clusters. The use of a small number of redshift measurements in the determination of the cluster distance has a smaller impact on the measured correlation function. We show that an angular incompleteness in redshift surveys, such as that present in the 2dFGRS 100k public release, has no significant effect in the results. We suggest that the nature of projection effects arise mainly from structures along the line of sight in the filamentary large-scale clustering pattern. Thus spectroscopic surveys are the only means of providing unbiased cluster samples.

description: Seasonal variations of the price premium between bread and feed wheat indicate opportunities to profitably adjusting the grain marketing strategy of farmers that harvest (and store) both qualities. In this paper, we estimate the seasonal pattern of wheat price premiums on the German market by a vector error correction (VECM) approach, which accounts for multivariate autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity of the error terms. Results indicate a significant downward trend for the premium during the marketing season. The trend’s magnitude depends on the average quality of harvested wheat. If farmers have facilities so separately store bread and feed wheat, they should tend to postpone (move forward) their sales of feed (bread) wheat towards the end (beginning) of the season, particularly in years of low average wheat qualities. The volatility of the price premium significantly decreases over the season indicating higher risks at the beginning.
Fractionation effects in phase equilibria of polydisperse hard sphere colloids

description: The equilibrium phase behaviour of hard spheres with size polydispersity is studied theoretically. We solve numerically the exact phase equilibrium equations that result from accurate free energy expressions for the fluid and solid phases, while accounting fully for size fractionation between coexisting phases. Fluids up to the largest polydispersities that we can study (around 14%) can phase separate by splitting off a solid with a much narrower size distribution. This shows that experimentally observed terminal polydispersities above which phase separation no longer occurs must be due to non-equilibrium effects. We find no evidence of re-entrant melting; instead, sufficiently compressed solids phase separate into two or more solid phases. Under appropriate conditions, coexistence of multiple solids with a fluid phase is also predicted. The solids have smaller polydispersities than the parent phase as expected, while the reverse is true for the fluid phase, which contains predominantly smaller particles but also residual amounts of the larger ones. The properties of the coexisting phases are studied in detail; mean diameter, polydispersity and volume fraction of the phases all reveal marked fractionation. We also propose a method for constructing quantities that optimally distinguish between the coexisting phases, using Principal Component Analysis in the space of density distributions. We conclude by comparing our predictions to perturbative theories for near-monodisperse systems and to Monte Carlo simulations at imposed chemical potential distribution, and find excellent agreement.

description: Pro-poor growth has been identified as one of the most promising pathways to achieve the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) or any subsequent set of goals aiming to reduce poverty worldwide. Related research has developed a multitude of instruments to measure pro-poor growth using absolute and relative approaches and income and non-income data. This article contributes to the literature by expanding the toolbox with several new measures based on the concept of the growth incidence curve by Ravallion and Chen (2003) and the opportunity curve by Ali and Son (2007) that take into account the extraordinary importance of agriculture for poverty reduction in developing countries. The toolbox is then applied to two comparable household surveys from Rwanda (EICV data for the years 1999-2001 and 2005-2006), a country that has experienced impressive economic growth since the genocide in the mid-1990s and that has undertaken considerable efforts to increase the population’s access to social services over the last decade. Results indicate that Rwanda achieved in this time period enormous progress in the income, but also in the education and health dimension of poverty, which was in many cases even pro-poor in the relative sense. The new tools further reveal that agricultural productivity of the labor/land productivity-poor increased relatively (but not absolutely) faster than for the labor/land productivity-rich. Lastly, we find indications that the labor productivity-poor dispose of less education than the labor productivity-rich which may imply further potential to increase the poor’s productivity levels if their education levels increased.
Hinged Quantum Spin-Hall Effect in Antiferromagnetic Topological Insulators

description: In this work, we predict a hinged quantum spin-Hall (HQSH) effect featured by a pair of helical hinge modes in antiferromagnetic (AFM) topological insulator (TI) multilayers. This pair of helical hinge modes are localized on the hinges of the top and bottom surfaces of the AFM TI multilayers. Unlike the conventional QSH effect, the HQSH effect survives the breaking of time-reversal symmetry (TRS) and thus represents a different kind of topological phenomenon. The helical hinge modes are sustainable to inelastic scattering and TRS-breaking disorder, which can be observed in macroscopic samples. We show that this HQSH effect can be understood as a three-dimensional generalization of the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model and its topology is characterized by the spin Chern number. At last, we propose that the HQSH effect can be realized in newly found intrinsic AFM TI materials (MnBi$_2$Te$_4$)$_m$(Bi$_2$Te$_3$)$_n$ or magnetic-doped TI multilayers by current experimental setups.

description: Entanglement and wave function description are two of the core concepts that make quantum mechanics such a unique theory. A method to directly measure the wave function, using Weak Values, was demonstrated by Lundeen et al., Nature \textbf{474}, 188(2011). However, it is not applicable to a scenario of two disjoint systems, where nonlocal entanglement can be a crucial element since that requires obtaining the Weak Values of nonlocal observables. Here, for the first time, we propose a method to directly measure a nonlocal wave function of a bipartite system, using Modular Values. The method is experimentally implemented for a photon pair in a hyper-entangled state, i.e. entangled both in polarization and momentum degrees of freedom.

description: A recent surge of interest in the {\em early} unification of quarks and leptons, has prompted us to revive a paper \cite{HBB} written twenty two years ago. We provided there a general discussion of quark-lepton unification characterized by the gauge group $G_{S} \otimes G_{W}$ with two couplings $g_S$ and $g_W$ and by the unification mass scales $10\tev-1000\tev$. The constraint from $\sin^2 θ_{W}$ restricts the choices for $G_W$ and our favorite model was chosen to be $SU(4)_{\rm PS}\otimes SU(2)^4$. We review the main results of \cite{HBB}, update the original $SU(4)_{\rm PS}\otimes SU(2)^4$ model and propose two new models based on the groups $SU(4)_{\rm PS}\otimes SU(2)^3$ and $SU(4)_{\rm PS}\otimes SU(3)^2$ for which the consistency with the measured value of $\sin^{2}θ_{W}(M_{Z}^{2})$ determines the unification scale to be roughly $1 {\rm TeV}$ and $3-10 {\rm TeV}$, respectively. The implications of this very early unification is the existence of new quarks and leptons with charges up to 4/3 (for quarks) and 2 (for leptons) and masses $\ord(250\gev)$. Interestingly, in these models the rare decay $K_L\to μe$ is automatically absent at tree level and the one-loop contributions are consistent with the experimental upper bound for this decay.

description: This paper analyses the extent to which agricultural subsidies are capitalised into land rental price. By using Italian data at the farm level the analysis proposed in this paper innovates with respect to existing studies in different ways. Thanks to the long time span available in the FADN database it is possible to compare the two time periods, before and after the 2005 CAP reform, to test whether any change occurred as a result of the introduction of the decoupled payments scheme. In contrast to previous empirical literature, which has either focused on the unobserved farm-level heterogeneity issue or on the selectivity issue, the method proposed in this paper accounts for both simultaneously. Finally, the same method is extended to account for endogeneity of some covariates. Overall, the results in the paper confirm previous evidence, rejecting the hypothesis that agricultural payments are capitalized into land prices in both periods.
Sign and area in nodal geometry of Laplace eigenfunctions

description: The paper deals with asymptotic nodal geometry for the Laplace-Beltrami operator on closed surfaces. Given an eigenfunction f corresponding to a large eigenvalue, we study local asymmetry of the distribution of sign(f) with respect to the surface area. It is measured as follows: take any disc centered at the nodal line {f=0}, and pick at random a point in this disc. What is the probability that the function assumes a positive value at the chosen point? We show that this quantity may decay logarithmically as the eigenvalue goes to infinity, but never faster than that. In other words, only a mild local asymmetry may appear. The proof combines methods due to Donnelly-Fefferman and Nadirashvili with a new result on harmonic functions in the unit disc.

Order N Monte Carlo Algorithm for Fermion Systems Coupled with Fluctuating Adiabatical Fields

description: An improved algorithm is proposed for Monte Carlo methods to study fermion systems interacting with adiabatical fields. To obtain a weight for each Monte Carlo sample with a fixed configuration of adiabatical fields, a series expansion using Chebyshev polynomials is applied. By introducing truncations of matrix operations in a systematic and controlled way, it is shown that the cpu time is reduced from O(N^3) to O(N) where N is the system size. Benchmark results show that the implementation of the algorithm makes it possible to perform systematic investigations of critical phenomena using system-size scalings even for an electronic model in three dimensions, within a realistic cpu timescale.

description: Globally, agriculture is facing an unprecedented set of pressures over the coming decades. After a brief review of recent studies on the challenges facing the food and farming sector, the RSPB offers its views on approaches to balancing agricultural production and conservation in the UK, drawing on case studies from within the charity’s own farming portfolio. There are decisions to be made on how we use our land in the future, including whether we follow the ‘land sparing’ model of intensive agriculture freeing up land for nature conservation objectives; or adopt a ‘land sharing’ approach where wildlife-friendly farming delivers both food and biodiversity. The RSPB conclusion is that there is no ‘one size fits all’ model for the future of farming. Intensive and extensive farms, conventional and organic, arable and livestock, lowland and upland can all form part of the mix. Government, scientists and land managers must focus on addressing the conflicts between farming and conservation to make all farming systems more sustainable. An evidence-based approach, building on sound scientific research and efficient dissemination of new knowledge to land managers, will be critical.

description: The pressure effect on the electromotive force (EMF) of a Pt13Rh–Pt (type R) thermocouple was examined to determine the temperature measurement accuracy of solid pressure medium apparatuses in high-pressure experiments. Single-wire EMFs were measured up to pressure of 13 GPa and temperature of 1173 K with a Kawai-type multi-anvil apparatus for Pt13Rh and Pt based on the single-wire method. The pressure conditions along the wires were evaluated by in situ X-ray diffraction using synchrotron X-ray radiation. The pressure effect of the Seebeck coefficients of Pt13Rh and Pt were determined by the analysis of the single-wire EMFs and pressure–temperature profiles along the wires and was virtually consistent with those determined in previous studies at lower pressures and temperatures. For type R thermocouple, the difference between the nominal and real temperatures was determined to be as large as –75 K at 13 GPa and 873 K.

description: NASA's Kepler Mission revolutionized exoplanet science in the early part of the 2010's. Looking back from the perspective of the end of that decade, Kepler appears to have burst upon the scene ready for battle, like Athena springing forth, fully formed, from the head of Zeus. The story was not so simple. Kepler's first major exoplanet discoveries were not announced until more than a year had passed since the spacecraft started collecting scientific data, and by that time many exoplanet scientists not working on the project had become frustrated with the lack of results coming from the Kepler project. But an immense amount of work was required to develop the tools and conceptual framework needed to harvest the abundant field of data that the spacecraft was producing. This issue contains articles describing some of the research efforts, most of which took place behind the scenes, that led to the announcements/publication of several of Kepler's major exoplanet "firsts", written by the scientists who led the landmark discovery papers.
