description: Summary: Anthropogenic atmospheric deposition can increase nutrient supply in the most remoteecosystems, potentially affecting soil biodiversity. Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal (AMF) com-munities rapidly respond to simulated soil eutrophication in tropical forests. Yet the limitedspatio-temporal extent of such manipulations, together with the often unrealistically high fer-tilization rates employed, impedes generalization of such responses. We sequenced mixed root AMF communities within a seven year-long fully factorial nitro-gen (N) and phosphorus (P) addition experiment, replicated at three tropical montane forestsin southern Ecuador with differing environmental characteristics. We hypothesized: strongshifts in community composition and species richness after long-term fertilization, site- andclade-specific responses to N vs P additions depending on local soil fertility and clade life his-tory traits respectively. Fertilization consistently shifted AMF community composition across sites, but only reducedrichness of Glomeraceae. Compositional changes were mainly driven by increases in P supplywhile richness reductions were observed only after combined N and P additions. We conclude that moderate increases of N and P exert a mild but consistent effect on tropi-cal AMF communities. To predict the consequences of these shifts, current results need to besupplemented with experiments that characterize local species-specific AMF functionality

description: By exploiting our recently derived exact formula for the Lindhard polarization function in the presence of Bychkov-Rashba (BR) and Dresselhaus (D) spin-orbit interaction (SOI), we show that the interplay of different SOI mechanisms induces highly anisotropic modifications of the static dielectric function. We find that under certain circumstances the polarization function exhibits doubly-singular behavior, which leads to an intriguing novel phenomenon, beating of Friedel oscillations. This effect is a general feature of systems with BR+D SOI and should be observed in structures with a sufficiently strong SOI.

description: Evolution of a background space-time metric and sub-horizon matter density perturbations in the Universe is numerically analyzed in viable $f(R)$ models of present dark energy and cosmic acceleration. It is found that viable models generically exhibit recent crossing of the phantom boundary $w_{\rm DE}=-1$. Furthermore, it is shown that, as a consequence of the anomalous growth of density perturbations during the end of the matter-dominated stage, their growth index evolves non-monotonically with time and may even become negative temporarily.

Probing Supersymmetry With Third-Generation Cascade Decays

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2008
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The chiral structure of supersymmetric particle couplings involving third generation Standard Model fermions depends on left-right squark and slepton mixings as well as gaugino-higgsino mixings. The shapes and intercorrelations of invariant mass distributions of a first or second generation lepton with bottoms and taus arising from adjacent branches of SUSY cascade decays are shown to be a sensitive probe of this chiral structure. All possible cascade decays that can give rise to such correlations within the MSSM are considered. For bottom-lepton correlations the distinctive structure of the invariant mass distributions distinguishes between decays originating from stop or sbottom squarks through either an intermediate chargino or neutralino. For decay through a chargino the spins of the stop and chargino are established by the form of the distribution. When the bottom charge is signed through soft muon tagging, the structure of the same-sign and opposite-sign invariant mass distributions depends on a set function of left-right and gaugino-higgsino mixings, as well as establishes the spins of all the superpartners in the sequential two-body cascade decay. Tau-lepton and tau-tau invariant mass distributions arising from MSSM cascade decays are likewise systematically considered with particular attention to their dependence on tau polarization. All possible tau-lepton and tau-tau distributions are plotted using a semi-analytic model for hadronic one-prong taus. Algorithms for fitting tau-tau and tau-lepton distributions to data are suggested.

description:  Avec le vieillissement de la population, l’accompagnement de perte d’autonomie et le bien-vieillir sont devenus des enjeux de politique publique majeurs. Une question centrale est celle de la pertinence des aides publiques : sont-elles centrées sur les besoins des personnes ? Nous montrons qu’il existe en effet une corrélation forte entre la santé perçue par nos aînés et leurs besoins de soins de longue durée (familiaux et professionnels). Nous préconisons de déployer une aide publique basée sur la notion de « value-based aging », c’est-à-dire finançant en priorité des aides centrées sur les attentes des aînés.
description: In a context of population aging, providing assistance to frail older people and encouraging healthy aging have become policy priorities. A central question is related to the efficiency and people-centeredness of public policies. We show that indeed, there is a strong correlation between frail older people’s self-reported health and their long-term care needs. We recommend to change the orientation of aging policies and focus on the notion of “value-based aging”, by financing in priority services centered on older people’s interests and expectations.
Strength out of Weakness: Harnessing Information Gained from the Pair Structure of Composite Marginal Likelihood Estimation
Creators: name: Büscher, Sebastian
Publisher: name: Universität Bielefeld
Year: 2025
Subjects: subject: 310

description: Discrete choice models (DCMs) are ubiquitous in various disciplines, particularly in transportation planning, where they inform high-stakes infrastructure investments and policy decisions. However, the subjective nature of utility function specification has the potential to introduce variability in model outcomes, thereby undermining forecast reliability and potentially leading to discrepancies between data-driven recommendations and stakeholder decisions. This dissertation aims to address these challenges by means of three interconnected research papers, which collectively contribute to the development of more robust, transparent, and reliable DCMs.

The first paper introduces score plots, a diagnostic visualisation tool for models estimated using composite marginal likelihood (CML) methods, to detect model misspecifications and enhance model fit.

The second paper demonstrates the use of pairwise CML estimation for gradient-based Lagrange multiplier-type tests, enabling the comparison of gradients between different CML contributions and facilitating the testing of pooling over time and the identification of neglected temporal correlation.
The third paper explores the effective use of power weights in CML estimation, particularly in unbalanced panel settings and in the presence of unaccounted autoregressive error structures, to reduce the variance and asymptotic bias of the estimator.

Collectively, these papers furnish a comprehensive methodological framework for enhancing the reliability and transparency of DCMs. By enhancing model specification, testing, and estimation, this research reinforces the credibility of data-driven recommendations and contributes to more informed decision-making. The dissertation highlights the potential of CML-based methods to navigate the intricacies of model specification, reduce subjectivity, and improve the overall quality of DCM-based forecasts and recommendations.
Telemetry study of dispersion and breeding biology in blue grouse.
Creators: name: Lance, Arthur Norman
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: A general property of animal populations is their failure to continue increasing in number indefinitely, even when the habitat may contain enough resources to support more animals than are present at the time. Certain populations of blue grouse have expressed this property by failing to increase when the habitat has undergone changes that have produced striking increases in past cases. Other populations have expressed it by arresting their increase before the resources of the habitat were exhausted. In blue grouse populations on Vancouver Island, adult mortality is constant and it is restricted recruitment that has held these populations stable in the periods they have been studied, even though sufficient young have been produced to support an increase. The hypothesis that the behavior of territorial adult males affects the local occurrence of recruits and other grouse in general on the summer range was tested by studying dispersion during the breeding period. Information on dispersion and social behavior were obtained from nine grouse fitted with miniature radio transmitters. Data from non-instrumented birds supplement this work. The principal finding is that there was no evidence of social interaction causing females and immature males to occur in special places, and that no interaction of a sort that could affect recruitment occurs between blue grouse on their summer range. It is alternatively suggested that such behavior occurs in winter. Other conclusions are that the onset of estrus induces hens to seek out and become localized near a mate, that several hens may seek out the same mate, and that no lasting pair-bonds are formed. Each type of reproductive activity in blue grouse has a distinctive movement pattern, and perhaps movement rate, associated with it. Excepting for hens In estrus who briefly seek out mates, and some yearling males who are prevented by adults from remaining on territories, movements and local occurrence within the breeding range are unaffected by social interaction with other grouse.

description: The Fokker Planck (FP) equation has been solved to study the interaction of non-equilibrated heavy quarks with the Quark Gluon Plasma (QGP) expected to be formed in heavy ion collisions at RHIC energies. The solutions of the FP equation have been convoluted with the relevant fragmentation functions to obtain the $D$ and $B$ meson spectra. The results are compared with experimental data measured by STAR collaboration. It is found that the present experimental data can not distinguish between the $p_T$ spectra obtained from the equilibrium and non-equilibrium charm distributions. Data at lower $p_T$ may play a crucial role in making the distinction between the two. The nuclear suppression factor, $R_{\mathrm AA}$ for non-photonic single electron spectra resulting from the semileptonic decays of hadrons containing heavy flavours have been evaluated using the present formalism. It is observed that the experimental data on nuclear suppression factor of the non-photonic electrons can be reproduced within this formalism by enhancing the pQCD cross sections by a factor of 2 provided the expansion of the bulk matter is governed by the velocity of sound, $c_s\sim 1/\sqrt{4}$. Ideal gas equation of state fails to reproduce the data even with the enhancement of the pQCD cross sections by a factor of 2.

description: We present H- and Ks-band imaging of three fields at the centre of 30 Doradus in the Large Magellanic Cloud, obtained as part of the Science Demonstration programme with the Multi-conjugate Adaptive optics Demonstrator (MAD) at the Very Large Telescope. Strehl ratios of 15-30% were achieved in the Ks-band, yielding near-infrared images of this dense and complex region at unprecedented angular resolution at these wavelengths. The MAD data are used to construct a near-infrared luminosity profile for R136, the cluster at the core of 30 Dor. Using cluster profiles of the form used by Elson et al., we find the surface brightness can be fit by a relatively shallow power-law function (gamma~1.5-1.7) over the full extent of the MAD data, which extends to a radius of ~40" (~10pc). We do not see compelling evidence for a break in the luminosity profile as seen in optical data in the literature, arguing that cluster asymmetries are the dominant source, although extinction effects and stars from nearby triggered star-formation likely also contribute. These results highlight the need to consider cluster asymmetries and multiple spatial components in interpretation of the luminosity profiles of distant unresolved clusters. We also investigate seven candidate young stellar objects reported by Gruendl & Chu from Spitzer observations, six of which have apparent counterparts in the MAD images. The most interesting of these (GC09: 053839.24-690552.3) appears related to a striking bow-shock--like feature, orientated away from both R136 and the Wolf-Rayet star Brey 75, at distances of 19.5" and 8" (4.7 and 1.9pc in projection), respectively.

description: Motivated by recent experiments, which demonstrated lasing and cooling of the electromagnetic modes in a resonator coupled to a superconducting qubit, we describe the specific mechanisms creating the population inversion, and we study the spectral properties of these systems in the lasing state. Different levels of the theoretical description, i.e., the semi-classical and the semi-quantum approximation, as well as an analysis based on the full Liouville equation are compared. We extend the usual quantum optics description to account for strong qubit-resonator coupling and include the effects of low-frequency noise. Beyond the lasing transition we find for a single- or few-qubit system the phase diffusion strength to grow with the coupling strength, which in turn deteriorates the lasing state.

description: The roton excitation in the superfluid He-4 does not possess a stationary dipole moment. However, a roton has an instantaneous dipole moment, such that at any given moment one can find it in the state either with positive or with negative dipole moment projection on its momentum direction. The instantaneous value of electric dipole moment of roton excitation is evaluated. The result is in reasonable agreement with recent experimental observation of the splitting of microwave resonance absorption line at roton frequency under external electric field.

description: We introduce a microscopic model for the dynamics of the order book to study how the lack of liquidity influences price fluctuations. We use the average density of the stored orders (granularity $g$) as a proxy for liquidity. This leads to a Price Impact Surface which depends on both volume $ω$ and $g$. The dependence on the volume (averaged over the granularity) of the Price Impact Surface is found to be a concave power law function $_g\simω^δ$ with $δ\approx 0.59$. Instead the dependence on the granularity is $ϕ(ω,g|ω)\sim g^α$ with $α\approx-1$, showing a divergence of price fluctuations in the limit $g\to 0$. Moreover, even in intermediate situations of finite liquidity, this effect can be very large and it is a natural candidate for understanding the origin of large price fluctuations.

description: Five December 2006 may well go down in the annals of modern Fijian history as the date when the country dramatically changed course — a turning point when the country finally turned. What the future holds for that ill-fated island nation state is not at all clear, nor likely to be for some time, but it is now surely beyond dispute that the 20th century, with its assumptions and understandings about the nature and structure of Fiji’s political culture, effectively ended not in 2000, but in 2006 when Commodore Bainimarama executed his military coup. The break with the past is decisive and irreversible. An improbable coup has largely succeeded. The old order is dead — or at least in terminal illness — and a new one is promised to ‘take the country forward’. That promise for now remains just that: a promise. Everyone accepts that a racebased electoral system is counterproductive for a multi-ethnic democratic society, that gender inequality is indefensible, that all citizens should have equal rights, that citizenship should be race neutral. Change in a society, as in any living organism, is inevitable, constant, though it is more easily asserted than effected. But the larger question is change for what purpose? To what end, at what pace, on whose terms, under what conditions, through what means, at what price? This is the conundrum at the heart of the current political debate in Fiji. I will not attempt to answer these questions here. My purpose is not to speculate about what Fiji’s future might look like under Bainimarama, but to understand the constellation of forces that served to consolidate the Commodore’s coup. This, I hope, may provide us with some pointers for the future. (First paragraph of first page).

description: In this paper we address the problem of protecting elliptic curve scalar multiplication implementations against side-channel analysis by using the atomicity principle. First of all we reexamine classical assumptions made by scalar multiplication designers and we point out that some of them are not relevant in the context of embedded devices. We then describe the state-of-the-art of atomic scalar multiplication and propose an atomic pattern improvement method. Compared to the most efficient atomic scalar multiplication published so far, our technique shows an average improvement of up to 10.6%.

The sample consists of 401 X-ray-sources, of which 306 are detected by Spitzer, and a further 257 AGN candidates detected through their dust torus, but not by Chandra. For X-ray sources the X-ray hardness ratio has been modelled in terms of a power-law with absorption N(H). The optical and infrared data have been modelled in terms of our well-established optical galaxy and QSO templates, and infrared templates based on radiative transfer models. Our estimate of the N(H) distribution is consistent with other studies, but we do find a higher proportion of low absorption objects at z < 0.5 than at z > 0.5. While we find only one X-ray AGN with N(H) > 10^{24} cm^{-2}, we argue that 10 objects with torus luminosity apparently exceeding the bolometric X-ray to 3 μm luminosity are strong candidates for being heavily absorbed in X-rays. We also estimate that at least half of the infrared-detected AGN dust tori which are undetected in X-rays are likely to be Compton thick. Our estimate of the total number of Compton-thick objects corresponds to > 20%$ of the combined SWIRE-CLASXS sample (and with an upper limit of 39 %). The range of dust covering factors is 1-100 %, with a mean of 40 %, ie a Type 2 fraction of 40 %. Measured by the ratio of dust torus luminosity to X-ray or (for Type 1 objects) optical luminosity, the covering factor appears to decrease towards intermediate AGN luminosity, in contradiction to estimates based on ratios of narrow-line and broad-line spectra, but may increase again at low AGN luminosity.

A New interpretation of MOND based on Mach principle and an Unruh like effect

description: A new interpretation is introduced for MOND based on the Sciama's interpretation of Mach principle and an Unruh like effect, in the context of a generalized equivalence principle. It is argued that in a locally accelerated frame with acceleration $a$ the appearance of a Rindler horizon may give rise to a constant acceleration $a_0$ as the local properties of cosmological horizon or Hubble length. The total gravitational acceleration inside this frame becomes the combination of $a$ with $a_0$. For $a\gg a_0$, the conventional gravitational mass $m_g$ interacts with the dominant acceleration as $m_g a$ and application of Sciama's interpretation leads to the standard Newtonian dynamics. For $a\ll a_0$, however, a reduced gravitational mass $\bar{m}_g$ interacts with the dominant acceleration as $\bar{m}_g a_0$ and the application of Sciama's interpretation on this reduced gravitational mass leads to MOND. This introduces a third proposal for MOND: {\it The modification of gravitational mass}.

Effect of chicken breeder diet on growth of progeny
Creators: name: Ping Chuen, Mark Fung
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2011

description: Experiments were carried out to determine the effect of breeder diet on the weight of the chick at hatching and up to 4 weeks of age and on the effect of breeder diet and chick diet on body composition of the chick. The dietary treatments imposed were related to protein level and amino acid composition of the breeder diet and the chick diet. Two experiments were carried out in which different sets of dietary comparisons with breeder rations were made. In the first experiment, diets fed to the breeders varied with respect to the source of supplementary protein (soybean meal, herring meal and white fish meal) supplied. The progeny of these breeders showed differences in hatch weight but the differences in weight were no longer statistically significant by the end of the first week after hatching. The breeder diet did not appear to affect the composition of the progeny at hatching or at three weeks of age. In the second experiment the diets fed to the breeders differed markedly in protein level as well as in amino acid composition and in this experiment there were significant treatment effects on the hatch weight of the progeny which persisted until at least four weeks of age. In a third experiment chicks were fed different levels of lysine and the effects on body weight and on weight of the pectoral muscle measured. It was found that the weight of pectoral muscle was more sensitive to dietary lysine level than was total body weight. It was therefore concluded that the ratio of pectoral muscle weight to body weight provides a more sensitive criterion of the lysine adequacy of a chick diet than does body weight. In further study of the effect of the amino acid balance of the breeder diet on embryonic and postnatal growth of progeny the use of this ratio as the criterion of response should be investigated.

Optimal effective current operator for flux qubit accounting for inductive effects

description: An optimal effective current operator for flux qubit has been investigated by taking account of the inductive effects of the circuit loop. The whole system is treated as two interacting subsystems: one is the inductance-free flux qubit consisting of three Josephson junctions and the other a high frequency LC-oscillator. As the composite system hardly affords one excessively high energy LC photon, an effective theory for the inductive flux qubit providing its physical variable operators has been achieved, which can take account of the inductive effects but does not include the additional degree of freedom for the LC-oscillator. Considering the trade-off between simplicity and accuracy, it has been revealed that the optimal effective current operator resulting in an error only on the order of $L^{3/2}$ provides an approximation of high accuracy, which is also verified numerically.

description: The Hubbard model has been employed successfully to understand many aspects of correlation driven physical properties, in particular, the magnetic order in itenerant electron systems. In some systems such as Heusler alloys, manganites etc., it is known that, in addition to magnetic order, distortion induced by Jahn-Teller(J-T) effect also exists. In this paper, based on two-fold degenerate Hubbard model, the influence of magnetic order on J-T distortion is investigated. The electron correlation is treated using a spectral density approach and J-T interaction is added to the model. We find that magnetic order and structural distortion coexist at low temperature $T$ for a certain range of electron correlation strength $U$, J-T coupling strength $G$ and band occupation $n$. At T=0, for a given $n$ and $U$, magnetic order is present but distortion appears only for a $G$ larger than a critical value. We also studied the temperature dependence of lattice strain and magnetization choosing a $G$ close to the critical value.

description: We present analytic expressions of all integrals required to complete the explicit evaluation of the real-virtual integrated counterterms needed to define a recently proposed subtraction scheme for jet cross sections at next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD. We use the Mellin-Barnes representation of these integrals in $4-2ε$ dimensions to obtain the coefficients of their Laurent expansions around $ε=0$. These coefficients are given by linear combinations of multidimensional Mellin-Barnes integrals. We compute the coefficients of such expansions in $ε$ both numerically and analytically by complex integration over the Mellin-Barnes contours.

description: Die Anzahl von Aufstockerinnen und Aufstockern – also Erwerbstätige, die trotz eigenem Einkommen auf Leistungen der Grundsicherung für Arbeitssuchende (SGB II) angewiesen sind – ist im Land Bremen in den letzten Jahren konstant gestiegen. Vor allem wenn Kinder zu versorgen sind, reicht das Einkommen von Eltern vielfach nicht aus, um die Familie existenzsichernd zu versorgen. Die vorliegende Studie geht der Frage nach, welche Strategien Familien zur Überwindung der Bedürftigkeit entwickeln und welche Hindernisse ihnen im Wege stehen. Hinterfragt wird, inwiefern die Arbeitsvermittlung dieser spezifischen Gruppe Unterstützung bietet. Anhand der Befragung von Bremer Aufstocker-Familien im Abstand von zwei Jahren zeigt sich, dass diese für eine Überwindung des Leistungsbezugs ein hohes Maß an innerfamiliärer und erwerbsbezogener Flexibilität aufbringen müssen. Die dafür notwendigen Handlungsspielräume sind jedoch vor allem aufgrund der Sorgearbeit in der Familie stark begrenzt. Die Arbeitsvermittlung bietet nur eingeschränkt Unterstützung an und trägt bei den befragten Familien nicht zu einem Ausstieg aus der Bedürftigkeit bei. Die Arbeitsmarktpolitik steht somit vor der drängenden Herausforderung, die Grundsicherung für Arbeitsuchende anzupassen oder aber anknüpfende arbeitsmarktpolitische Interventionen für diese Gruppen zu entwickeln.

description: We grew the single crystal of stoichiometric Tm5Si2.0Ge2.0 using a Bridgeman method and performed XRD, EDS, magnetization, ac and dc magnetic susceptibilities, specific heat, electrical resistivity and XPS experiments. It crystallizes in orthorhombic Sm5Ge4-type structure. The mean valence of Tm ions in Tm5Si2.0Ge2.0 is almost trivalent. The 4f states is split by the crystalline electric field. The ground state exhibits the long range antiferromagnetic order with the ferromagnetically coupled magnetic moments in the ac plane below 8.01 K, while the exited states exhibit the reduction of magnetic moment and magnetic entropy and -log T-behaviors observed in Kondo materials.
