description: L'université d'Etat du Michigan (MSU), dans le cadre du Programme de Sécurité Alimentaire (FSP) en Afrique de l’Ouest, à la demande de l’USAID et de la CEDEAO, entreprend des études de cas sur le profil du marché des pesticides et la mise en œuvre des politiques agricoles dans un certain nombre de pays de la CEDEAO (Mali, Sénégal, Côte d'Ivoire, Ghana, Guinée, Gambie et Nigéria). Cet article examine les marchés et la réglementation des pesticides au Sénégal. En tant que membre fondateur du CILSS, le Sénégal s'est engagé à mettre en place des institutions réglementaires nationales nécessaires à la mise en œuvre de la réglementation commune sur les pesticides en vigueur dans toute la région du CILSS. Cette étude explore les progrès accomplis jusqu'à présent dans la mise en œuvre au niveau national par le Sénégal de ces politiques régionales sur les pesticides convenues d'un commun accord. Dans le cadre d'une série d'études comparatives de cas de sept pays, ce travail vise collectivement à explorer les raisons des taux inégaux de mise en œuvre par les pays des politiques régionales en matière d'intrants agricoles.

description: Quite detailed theoretical description of superfluid 3He is possible on length scales that are much larger than the atomic scale. We discuss weak links between two bulk states of 3He-B. The current through the weak link is determined by the bound states at the link. The bound state energies are spin split depending on the order parameters in the bulk. As a result, unusual current-phase relations with pi state appear. For not too weak links, the order parameter in the bulk is modified because of the Josephson coupling. This leads to a stronger pi state and to an additional current at constant pressure bias. The theoretical results are compared with experiments.

description: With increasing interest in using orbital angular momentum (OAM) modes in high-power laser systems, accurate mathematical descriptions of the high-intensity modes at focus are required for realistic modelling. In this work, we derive various high intensity orbital angular momentum focal spot intensity distributions generated by Gaussian, super-Gaussian, and ideal flat-top beams common to high-power laser systems. These intensity distributions are then approximated using fitted Laguerre-Gaussian basis functions as a practical way for describing high-power OAM beams in theoretical and numerical models.

description: Radon and its radioactive progenies are the most important source of ionizing radiation of natural origin, being classified as a Group 1 carcinogen. The aim of this study is to investigate the genotoxic effects of a wide range of indoor radon concentrations, as well as the kinetics of the process of repairing DNA-induced lesions by a challenging dose of gamma irradiation. Female subjects residing in the Băiţa-Ştei radon priority area were selected as the exposed group. The reference group was comprised of women from the same county (Bihor), but located in an area with an average indoor radon concentration typical of the county from which they were taken. Radon concentration values of 300 Bq/m3 and 148 Bq/m3, respectively, were chosen as a threshold in order to capture the impact of radon exposure between the groups. The alkaline comet assay was used in order to measure the DNA damage, as well as the repair kinetics at 2 and 24 h after 2 Gy challenging doses of gamma irradiation using peripheral blood lymphocytes. From the serum of the subjects, the oxidative damage by 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine as well as the PARP induction was evaluated. The chromosomal aberrations were evaluated using the Cytokinesis Block MicroNucleus Assay. A statistically significant increase was observed in terms of DNA-induced lesions assessed by comet assay for the exposed group compared to the reference group. A positive correlation was obtained between DNA damage and the annual effective dose, respectively with the radon progenies concentrations. A statistically significant difference was also observed for the frequency of the micronuclei between the exposed – reference groups. Significantly faster repair kinetics of DNA-induced lesions was recorded for the first 2 h after gamma irradiation in the reference group compared to the exposed group. Using the threshold of 300 Bq/m3 for radon concentration, faster kinetics of DNA damage repair for people exposed to low radon concentrations, compared to those exposed to higher concentrations for the second phase of DNA repair kinetics was observed. An increased radiosensitivity of lymphocytes, as well as slower repair kinetics, may be associated with exposure to higher indoor radon concentrations.
Electron Photodetachment from Aqueous Anions. II. Ionic Strength Effect on Geminate Recombination Dynamics and Quantum Yield for Hydrated Electron

description: In concentrated solutions of NaClO4 and Na2SO4, the quantum yield for free electron generated by detachment from photoexcited anions (such as I-, OH-, ClO^4-, and [SO3]^2-) linearly decreases by 6-12% per 1 M ionic strength. In 9 M sodium perchlorate solution, this quantum yield decreases by roughly an order of magnitude. Ultrafast kinetic studies of 200 nm photon induced electron detachment from Br-, HO- and [SO3]^2- suggest that the prompt yield of thermalized electron does not change in these solutions; rather, the ionic strength effect originates in more efficient recombination of geminate pairs. Within the framework of the recently proposed mean force potential (MFP) model of charge separation dynamics in such photosystems, the observed changes are interpreted as an increase in the short-range attractive potential between the geminate partners. Association of sodium cation(s) with the electron and the parent anion is suggested as the most likely cause for the observed modification of the MFP. Electron thermalization kinetics suggest that the cation associated with the parent anion (by ion pairing and/or ionic atmosphere interaction) is passed to the detached electron in the course of the photoreaction. The precise atomic-level mechanism for the ionic strength effect is presently unclear; any further advance is likely to require the development of an adequate quantum molecular dynamics model.

description: We study the trade-off relations on the maximal violation of CHSH tests for the multi-qubit pure states. Firstly, according to the classification of 3-qubit pure states under stochastic local operations and classical communication, four trade-off relations on CHSH tests are provided. The process of proof also provides the method of calculating its exact value. Then we consider the multi-qubit quantum systems, and we prove that the conjecture in [PRA 94, 042105 (2016)] is right for some special 4-qubit or more qubit pure states.

description: Rice is a prime staple crop for more than half of the world population. Improved White Ponni (IWP) is a premium quality grain rice variety that is fetching a good price and is increasingly popular among the consumers of Tamil Nadu. Tall plant stature of IWP makes them susceptible to lodging and medium duration are two undesirable traits in the variety increases yield losses in the field and also productivity. In this context, we aimed to generate a large mutant population of IWP irradiated with various doses of gamma irradiation to recover putative mutants for semi-dwarfism and earliness. Totally, 34 putative mutants (22 early, 11 semi-dwarf and early and 1 Narrow-leaf dwarf mutant) were phenotyped for nine morphological traits and genotyped using 34 microsatellite markers linked to a trait of interest of earliness and semi-dwarfism. Trait variability, allelic variations, genetic structure and marker-trait associations in gamma-irradiated putative mutants of Improved White Ponni (IWP) rice were investigated in this study. The hierarchical clustering of morphological data produced five clusters with a dissimilarity coefficient of 1.39. A minimum dissimilarity coefficient of 0.23 was observed between the mutants IWPM9 and IWPM20 and a maximum dissimilarity coefficient of 2.55 was observed between IWPM1 and IWPM25. In cluster analysis with molecular marker data, five clusters with a similarity coefficient of 0.67 were observed. The mutant IWPM29 exhibited the most divergence from the wild type at the genotype level. The first principal component explained 50.99% of the total variability and the majority of the traits were contributed positively. The single-marker analysis revealed the strong association of SSR marker RM3912 with the traits plant height, panicle length and number of grains per panicle with an R2 value of 0.235, 0.235 and 0.250 respectively. The study identified semi-dwarf and short-duration rice mutants of IWP that can be utilized as potential breeding stocks. The trait-linked SSR markers can improve selection cycles in advanced breeding programs.

description: Vorliegende Forschungsarbeit befasst sich mit der Frage, welche Faktoren aus der Sicht von Lehrpersonen erfüllt sein müssen, damit Naturwissenschaften bereits bei 4- bis 8- jährigen Kindern gelingend in einen integrativen Unterricht aufgenommen werden können. Ausgehend von theoretischen Modellen wurden mit elf Teilnehmenden eines Weiterbildungskurses des Instituts Unterstrass zwei Gruppendiskussionen durchgeführt. Die transkribierten Daten wurden mittels qualitativer Inhaltsanalyse ausgewertet. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass die von den Lehrpersonen subjektiv gefühlten Gelingensbedingungen vor allem auf die persönliche Einstellung, den Einbezug der Lernenden und die Organisation des Unterrichts zurückzuführen sind. Aus der Reflexion der Ergebnisse wurden Folgerungen für den Einbau naturwissenschaftlicher Lernumgebungen im integrativen Unterricht und die Weiterbildung von Lehrpersonen gezogen.

description: H-infinity controllers are frequently used in control theory due to their robust performance and stabilization. Classical H-infinity controller synthesis methods for finite dimensional LTI MIMO plants result in high-order controllers for high-order plants whereas low-order controllers are desired in practice. We design fixed-order H-infinity controllers for a class of time-delay systems based on a non-smooth, non-convex optimization method and a recently developed numerical method for H-infinity norm computations.

description: We study six-point correlation functions in two dimensional conformal field theory, where the six operators are grouped in pairs with equal conformal dimension. Assuming large central charge $c$ and a sparse spectrum, the leading contribution to this correlation function is the six-point Virasoro identity block - corresponding to each distinct pair of operators fusing into the identity and its descendants. We call this the star channel. One particular term in the star channel identity block is the stress tensor $SL(2,\mathbb{R})$ (global) block, for which we derive an explicit expression. In the holographic context, this object corresponds to a direct measure of nonlinear effects in pure gravity. We calculate additional terms in the star channel identity block that contribute at the same order at large $c$ as the global block using the novel theory of reparametrizations, which extends the shadow operator formalism in a natural way. We investigate these blocks' relevance to quantum chaos in the form of six-point scrambling in an out-of time ordered correlator. Interestingly, the global block does not contribute to the scrambling mode of this correlator, implying that, to leading order, six-point scrambling is insensitive to the three-point graviton coupling in the bulk dual. Finally, we compare our findings with a different OPE channel, called the comb channel, and find the same result for the chaos exponent in this decomposition.

description: Recent measurements of the Chandra satellite have shown that a supermassive black hole of $M = 2.6 \times 10^{6} M_{\odot}$ is located in the Galactic Center; it seems probable that, from other observations, this fact is common in the majority of galaxies. On the other hand, GRB explosions are typical phenomenon linked to the galactic dynamics. In the present paper we discuss the possibility that GRBs are tidal disruption of stars by supermassive black holes located in the center of galaxies. This conjecture can be tested by a gravitational wave detector of the class of AURIGA.

Nutrient Content of the U.S. Food Supply

Food Consumption/Nutrition/Food Safety

description: There have been some marked changes in the American food supply over the last two decades. We're using less red meat and eggs and more poultry and fish. We've also cut back on whole milk but are using more cheese, lowfat milks, and creams. Animal fats—butter, lard, and beef fat—have declined in use, while vegetable fats— oils and shortening—have increased. Use of many plant-based foods has risen steadily over the past 20 years, particularly grain products, fresh fruits, fruit juices (especially citrus), fresh and frozen vegetables, and caloric sweeteners. These changes have affected nutrient levels of the food supply. Changes in the quantity of nutrients available are affected by more than changing diets. Technological advances, such as the introduction of new crop varieties, and specific events, such as revised Federal enrichment standards, affect nutrient levels as well. Nutrient levels reported in this article are based on food disappearance data— that is, all food available for consumption from the U.S. food supply—and are reported on a daily per capita basis. Estimates of food available are referred to as food "use" rather than consumption because the data represent disappearance of foods into food marketing channels and have presumably been used up for consumption. Disappearance data presented here do not show ingestion of foods because they do not account for losses that occur after the food is measured at the wholesale/retail level. Nonetheless, these data are useful for indicating trends in food and nutrient levels in the American diet over time. The data presented here are based on food use data through 1988.

description: In this review we discuss currents in celestial CFT and the consistency of their naive symmetry algebras. In particular we study in detail the Jacobi identity and the double residue condition for soft insertions, hard momentum space insertions, and hard celestial insertions. In the latter case we introduce the notion of a "hard current" in CFT and work through examples in the 2D critical Ising model. The current algebra of hard insertions in pure Einstein gravity is a slight conceptual generalization of the familiar $w_{1+\infty}$-wedge current algebra. We also review branch cut terms in the celestial OPE, which indicate new primary content and were previously missed until recently. We work through an explicit toy example illustrating the mechanism by which such branch cut terms can arise. These branch cut terms prevent a symmetry interpretation but are fully compatible with a consistent OPE.

description: In the event of a radiation accident detecting γ-H2AX foci is being accepted as fast method for triage and dose assessment. However, due to their disappearance kinetics, published calibrations have been constructed at specific post-irradiation times. To develop a surface, or tridimensional, model to estimate doses at times not included in the calibration analysis, and to validate it. Calibration data was obtained irradiating peripheral mononucleated cells from one donor with radiation doses ranging from 0 to 3 Gy, and γ -H2AX foci were detected microscopically using a semi-automatic method, at different post-irradiation times from 0.5 to 24 h. For validation, in addition to the above-mentioned donor, blood samples from another donor were also used. Validation was done within the range of doses and post-irradiation times used in the calibration. The calibration data clearly shows that at each analyzed time, the γ-H2AX foci frequency increases as dose increases, and for each dose this frequency decreases with post-irradiation time. The γ-H2AX foci nucleus distribution was clearly overdispersed, for this reason to obtain bidimensional and tridimensional dose-effect relationships no probability distribution was assumed, and linear and non-linear least squares weighted regression was used. In the two validation exercises for most evaluated samples, the 95% confidence limits of the estimated dose were between ±0.5 Gy of the real dose. No major differences were observed between donors. In case of a suspected overexposure to radiation, the surface model here presented allows a correct dose estimation using γ-H2AX foci as biomarker. The advantage of this surface model is that it can be used at any post-irradiation time, in our model between 0.5 and 24 h.

description: Even though X-ray beams are widely used in medical diagnosis or radiotherapy, the comparisons of their dose rates are scarce. We have recently demonstrated in vitro (clonogenic assay, cell viability, cell cycle, senescence) and in vivo (weight follow-up of animals and bordering epithelium staining of lesion), that for a single dose of irradiation, the relative biological effectiveness (RBE) deviates from 1 (up to twofold greater severe damage at the highest dose rate depending on the assay) when increasing the dose rate of high energy X-ray beams. To further investigate the impact of the dose rate on RBE, in this study we performed in vitro fractionated irradiations by using the same two dose rates (0.63 and 2.5 Gy.min−1) of high-energy X-rays (both at 4 MV) on normal endothelial cells (HUVECs). We investigated the viability/mortality, characterized radiation-induced senescence by using flow cytometry and measured gene analysis deregulations on custom arrays. The overall results enlighten that, in fractionated irradiations when varying the dose rate of high-energy X-rays, the RBE of photons deviates from 1 (up to 2.86 for viability/mortality experiments performed 21 days post-irradiation). These results strengthen the interest of multiparametric analysis approaches in providing an accurate evaluation of the outcomes of irradiated cells in support of clonogenic assays, especially when such assays are not feasible.

description: Abstract

The appearance of premature cracks in freeway chase bodies is a worrying problem that requires in-depth analysis and remedial action. By identifying potential causes and proposing targeted recommendations, this study aims to help the responsible authorities make informed decisions to prevent such problems in the future and ensure the durability of road infrastructure. Premature cracking and rutting are common problems in pavements that can compromise their durability and safety. The use of specific additives in asphalt concrete can help prevent these deficiencies. The use of ZQ1 additive alone can lead to premature cracking in pavements, while PR FLEX 20 additive can increase the risk of rutting. However, a judicious combination of the two additives, with specific percentages of 2% for ZQ1 and 5% for PR FLEX 20, can prevent these shortcomings, improve pavement durability and optimize the mechanical properties of high-modulus asphalt concrete (BBME). In addition, this approach offers a promising solution for improving pavement durability and performance over time, opening the door to further studies to optimize the use of this additive combination in field applications.
title: 'The folly of generalisation': infant mortality in Loughborough, Leicestershire 1888-1910
Creators: name: Cattell, Norma Ann
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2006

description: In spite of much research, stretching over more than a century and across numerous countries, the rapid and widespread decline of infant mortality in Europe, which began around 1900, remains a conundrum. Here, a new source - the Vaccination Registers - brings a new perspective. The Vaccination Registers are based on copies of Civil Registers of Births and Infant Deaths. By supplying individual level data they enable us to investigate the links between infant mortality and a variety of causal factors at a much lower level of aggregation than has hitherto been possible. This thesis is mainly concerned with how to social class and the urban-rural dichotomy affect infant mortality decline, but other topics, such as housing and income; births outside marriage; multiple births; seasonality of death; and place of birth are also investigated.

The area of enquiry is the Loughborough Sub-registration District and the core period of analysis, the years 1888 - 1910. The thesis begins by describing the intellectual context of the study, followed by a description of the major sources. Prior to two chapters on the major areas of investigation, urban-rural differences and social class, I outline the locational context of the study. Chapter 7 then looks at what the vaccination registers can tell us about various related topics.

Most studies of infant mortality in the period covered by this thesis have been carried out at a relatively high level of aggregation - the country, the county or Registration District. By going behind such aggregates to much smaller areas, such as the community, the street and the household, this study will show that explanations of the level and direction of infant mortality must acknowledge, not only that no mono-causal explanation is valid, but nor is there a standard set of explanations. Rather, 'every district is a law unto itself. Not by wide, sweeping generalisations but by careful local consideration of strictly local conditions will, in time, this problem be solved' (Pooler 1918:7:).
