description: Graded composition CdxZn1-xTe films were prepared by growing several alternate layers of CdTe and ZnTe by the Isothermal Close Space Sublimation technique. The thickness of both kinds of layers was modified along the structure to produce an increase of the average concentration of CdTe towards the surface of the films. Due to Zn/Cd inter-diffusion during the growth process the sequence of layers was converted into a relatively smooth graded composition film. According to X- ray diffraction characterization the layers grew coherently with the (100) oriented GaAs substrates although they showed a relatively high mosaicity. Theta-2theta plots show very wide diffraction peaks as expected from variable composition samples. The band gap grading effect in light absorption was also verified through transmission measurements, using transparent substrates. Graded composition profiles of the thin films were confirmed by x-ray photoelectron and secondary ion mass spectroscopies. Moreover, quantitative Cd, Zn and Te profiles were obtained by the analysis of Rutherford backscattering spectra of the samples. This analysis showed a CdTe molar fraction profile ranging from approximately x = 0.8 at the surface of the sample and x = 0.35 at the interface with the substrate. The possibility of growing graded composition layers using a simple and cost-effective procedure was demonstrated. This could be interesting in technological applications like CdxZn1-xTe layers of variable composition in CdS/CdTe solar cells

description: We present a next-to-leading order (NLO) QCD analysis of unpolarized and polarized deeply virtual Compton scattering (DVCS) amplitudes, for two different input scenarios, in the $\bar{MS}$ scheme. We illustrate and discuss the size of the NLO effects and the behavior of the amplitudes in skewedness, $ζ$, and photon virtuality, $Q^2$. In the unpolarized case, at fixed $Q^2$, we find a remarkable effective power-law behaviour in $ζ$, akin to Regge factorization, over several orders of magnitude in $ζ$. We also quantify the ratio of real to imaginary parts of the DVCS amplitudes and their sensitivity to changes of the factorization scale.

description: The consumption of fast‐food in the United States has seen strong growth in recent decades and fast‐food itself is becoming somewhat of a staple in many Americans’ diets. The proportion of overweight Americans has also risen substantially over the same time period, reaching alarming levels. Over the years, legislators and health care activists have attempted to inform the public about the dangers of eating large amounts of fast‐food and the effects of becoming overweight. This study analyzes how groups of people and different consumer behaviors effect the consumption of fast‐food. One group of variables focuses on demographic factors such as race and education, while another group focuses on consumer behavior such as grocery shopping and time spent cooking. The data for the research was acquired from the 2009‐2010 National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey, particularly the Flexible Consumer Behavior Survey module. The study finds that gender, age, and time spent cooking had a significant negative effect on the consumption of fast‐food, while race had a positive influence. With this research, groups who have been indicated to consume more fast‐food may be better targeted about the dangers of consuming large amounts of it.

Using Prospect Theory to Explain Anomalous Crop Insurance Coverage Choice

description: Farmers’ decisions about how much crop insurance to buy are not generally consistent with either expected profit or utility maximization. They do not pick coverage levels that maximize expected subsidy nor do they demand full insurance coverage. In addition, the absolute size of farmer-­‐paid premium seems to influence the type of insurance product farmers buy. Understanding demand drivers for crop insurance has taken on new importance because of the expanded role Congress has designated for crop insurance as a key part of Federal farm policy. By modeling financial outcomes as gains and losses, prospect theory offers an appropriate framework to better understand farmers’ purchase decisions. Because insured events are best modeled as continuous random variables, cumulative prospect theory is used to find a theoretical foundation that can explain farmers’ anomalous decisions. The role of the reference point that defines outcomes as either a gain or a loss, the degree of loss aversion, and the probability weighting function are explored under typical distributions of price, yield, and revenue for a corn producer. Choice of reference points that are consistent with farmers using crop insurance to manage risk are not consistent with observed purchase decisions. Choosing the reference point to make crop insurance akin to a stand alone investment generates optimal choices that are consistent with observed decisions and with the way that insurance agents sell the product.

description: We construct positive solutions to the equation $$-Δ_{\mathbf{H}^n} u = u^{\frac{Q+2}{Q-2}}$$ on the Heisenberg group, singular in the origin, similar to the Fowler solutions of the Yamabe equations on $\mathbf{R}^n$. These satisfy the homogeneity property $u\circδ_T=T^{-\frac{Q-2}{2}}u$ for some $T$ large enough, where $Q=2n+2$ and $δ_T$ is the natural dilation in $\mathbf{H}^n$. We use the Lyapunov-Schmidt method applied to a family of approximate solutions built by periodization from the global regular solution classified by Jerison and Lee.

description: Closed-orbit theory provides a general approach to the semiclassical description of photo-absorption spectra of arbitrary atoms in external fields, the simplest of which is the hydrogen atom in an electric field. Yet, despite its apparent simplicity, a semiclassical quantization of this system by means of closed-orbit theory has not been achieved so far. It is the aim of this paper to close that gap. We first present a detailed analytic study of the closed classical orbits and their bifurcations. We then derive a simple form of the uniform semiclassical approximation for the bifurcations that is suitable for an inclusion into a closed-orbit summation. By means of a generalized version of the semiclassical quantization by harmonic inversion, we succeed in calculating high-quality semiclassical spectra for the hydrogen atom in an electric field.

We investigate the possibility of universal unambiguous state comparison.

We then derive optimal strategies for state comparison when the state of each system is one of two known states.

description: Diese Literaturarbeit setzt sich mit dem Arbeitsfeld der Schulsozialarbeit auseinander. Sie geht der Frage nach, welche Methoden und Stärken Fachpersonen der Soziokulturellen Animation mitbringen können, um die drei Funktionen der Schulsozialarbeit – Prävention, Früherkennung und Behandlung – zu unterstützen und die Methoden im Anschluss vor dem Hintergrund einer verhaltens- und verhältnisorientierten Arbeitsweise zu bewerten. Ausgehend von den Herausforderungen im Jugendalter, setzen sich die Autoren mit der Systemtheorie auseinander. Diese soll Möglichkeitsspielräume für eine verhaltens- und verhältnisorientierte Arbeitsweise im Rahmen der Schulsozialarbeit aufzeigen. In diesem Zusammenhang setzen sich die Autoren mit der Profession der Sozialen Arbeit auseinander, um konkrete Stärken der Soziokulturellen Animation für die Schulsozialarbeit zu identifizieren. Die Ergebnisse der Arbeit brachten Stärken der Soziokulturellen Animation zum Vorschein, die eine Bereicherung für die Schulsozialarbeit darstellen können. Aus diesen Stärken konnten konkrete Methodenbeispielen der Soziokulturellen Animation abgeleitet werden. Diese zeigen auf, dass eine verhaltens- und verhältnisorientierte Arbeitsweise innerhalb der Funktionen der Schulsozialarbeit möglich ist. Eine wichtige Erkenntnis ist, dass die Soziokulturelle Animation durch ihre Haltung, ihre Arbeitsprinzipien und ihre Methodik die Früherkennungs- und Präventionsfunktion der Schulsozialarbeit sinnvoll ergänzen kann, um ein ganzheitlich orientiertes, sozialarbeiterisches Handeln an der Schule zu ermöglichen. Die Autoren dieser Arbeit sind Patrick Straub und Sandro Tschudi, Studierende der Hochschule Luzern – Soziale Arbeit.

description: We use confocal microscopy to directly visualize the dynamics of aging colloidal glasses. We prepare a colloidal suspension at high density, a simple model system which shares many properties with other glasses, and initiate experiments by stirring the sample. We follow the motion of several thousand colloidal particles after the stirring and observe that their motion significantly slows as the sample ages. The aging is both spatially and temporally heterogeneous. Furthermore, while the characteristic relaxation time scale grows with the age of the sample, nontrivial particle motions continue to occur on all time scales.

ADVANCING MATERIAL HANDLING SYSTEMS WITH AUTONOMOUS MOBILE ROBOTS THROUGH MACHINE LEARNING AND INTEGRATED CENTRALIZED-DECENTRALIZED CONTROL

description: As customer demand for personalized items rises, the need for flexible material handling systems (MHSs) becomes increasingly critical to accommodate growing product variety and demand fluctuations. Autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) play a key role in addressing these challenges by operating autonomously and adapting to dynamic environments. However, the decentralized decision-making of AMRs can limit their effectiveness in considering a system-wide perspective. Moreover, as the AMR fleet size increases, system performance loss due to traffic congestion becomes inevitable. To address these challenges, this dissertation investigates AMR operations in MHSs in three steps. First, to explore ideal optimal operation plans for AMRs, we assume a centralized controller managing the entire fleet in a static environment, where all information is known in advance. A mixed-integer linear programming (MILP) model, a genetic algorithm (GA), and a collision avoidance scheduling algorithm are developed to generate centralized solutions. Second, to overcome the myopic nature of decentralized decision-making, a machine learning-based platform is proposed. This platform extracts knowledge from solutions obtained in a static environment from the centralized controller’s perspective and uses it as a decentralized protocol for individual AMR operations in a dynamic environment, where future information is unavailable. Experimental results show that the proposed protocol outperforms conventional dispatching rules in most cases. Lastly, to mitigate system deterioration caused by traffic congestion in MHSs, a job-initiated traffic-aware protocol (JTAP) is proposed. This protocol requires collaboration between centralized and decentralized approaches and consists of traffic zone configurations, potential congestion level measurements, and AMR availability control. Experimental results show that JTAP outperforms the baseline scenario, where traffic is not controlled, and demonstrates its effectiveness in reducing AMR fleet size while maintaining system performance and enhancing MHS resilience to traffic congestion.

description: In this paper, online convex optimization is applied to the problem of controlling linear dynamical systems. An algorithm similar to online gradient descent, which can handle time-varying and unknown cost functions, is proposed. Then, performance guarantees are derived in terms of regret analysis. We show that the proposed control scheme achieves sublinear regret if the variation of the cost functions is sublinear. In addition, as a special case, the system converges to the optimal equilibrium if the cost functions are invariant after some finite time. Finally, the performance of the resulting closed loop is illustrated by numerical simulations.

description: In spite of Italy presenting one of the largest consumption of fruits and vegetables (FV) among EU Countries, the number of adult Italians consuming the recommended daily amounts of FV is declining, especially in the South of the country, were the expansion of the food retail industry has been lagging. In this article we assess whether the food retail structure affects the likelihood of adult Italians consuming five or more daily portions of FV, using 9 years of individual-level data on individuals’ lifestyle, including eating habits and perceived access to supermarkets, matched with detailed regional data on the food retail structure. In our analysis we use a Two-Step Instrumental Variable Probit estimator and variables indicating the political climate of the different regions to correct for the potential endogeneity of geographic disparity in retail structures. Results show that increased access and availability of fruits and vegetables affect positively the probability of consuming the daily-recommended amounts of FV. Food retail structure’s effect appears less marked for individuals declaring hurdles in accessing supermarkets. While individuals’ characteristics play an important role in explaining FV consumption probability among individuals declaring no hurdles in accessing supermarkets, transportation and perceived economic conditions are some of the main determinants for individuals declaring access hurdles.

description: This paper explores the relationship between migration and agricultural productivity in Ethiopia. Given that there are fairly significant returns to either rural-urban or international migration for labor in Ethiopia, it could be that credit constraints hindering migration start-up are an unexplored constraint against migration. The paper primarily uses the Ethiopia Rural Household Survey panel and a migrant listing exercise completed after the 2009 survey round to explore whether past agricultural productivity (e.g. in 2004) explains later migration. Using standard regression techniques, it finds that among young migrants, there appears to be a positive, significant relationship between productivity and households sending out a migrant. This relationship holds even when proxies for credit are included in the model; the effect appears to, in fact, be stronger among households who are less endowed with land. However, the magnitude of this effect is small. The paper also considers feedback effects from migration to later agricultural productivity; this correlation is weaker suggesting that migration does not have negative productivity impacts.

description: The hallmark of quantum physics is Planck's constant $h$, whose finite value entails the quantization that gave the theory its name. The finite value of $h$ gives rise to inevitable zero-point fluctuations even at vanishing temperature. The zero-point fluctuation of mechanical motion becomes smaller with growing mass of an object, making it challenging to observe at macroscopic scales. Here, we transition a dielectric particle with a diameter of 136 nm from the classical realm to the regime where its zero-point motion emerges as a sizeable contribution to its energy. To this end, we optically trap the particle at ambient temperature in ultrahigh vacuum and apply active feedback cooling to its center-of-mass motion. We measure an asymmetry between the Stokes and anti-Stokes sidebands of photons scattered by the levitated particle, which is a signature of the particle's quantum ground state of motion.

description: This research evaluates the effects of the key changes that took place in the design of Class III milk pricing within Federal Milk Marketing Orders (FMMOs) on milk price behavior and dairy farm profitability over three milk pricing regimes: Minnesota-Wisconsin price series (1960s – 1995), Basic Formula Price (1995-1999) and Multiple Component Pricing (2000-present). An autoregressive conditional heteroscedasticity (ARCH) model is estimated to evaluate the effects of changes in the dairy industry institutional environment on the Class III milk price level and volatility over the analyzed period of time. The empirical evidence presented in the paper indicates that changes in the level of Class III milk price were rather minor in magnitude. However, changes in the milk price volatility were dramatic. There is empirical evidence indicating that the private Exchange spot cheese price is the main determinant of the Class III milk price, which is consistent with the design of Class III milk pricing during the analyzed FMMOs milk pricing regimes.

description: A novel procedure, based in a closed space vapor transport (CSVT) configuration, has been devised to grow films or flakes of pure MoO2 in a reductive atmosphere, at relatively low temperature and using MoO3 as the source. In contrast with conventional CSVT technique, in the proposed method a temperature gradient is not required for the growth to take place, which occurs through an intermediate volatile transport species that is produced in the complex reduction reaction of MoO3. An added value of this simple method is the possibility of transforming the MoO2 into MoTe2, one of the most interesting members of the transition metal dichalcogenide family. This is achieved in a sequential process that includes the growth of Mo oxide and its (in-situ) tellurization in two consecutive steps.

description: We apply supersymmetric discrete light-cone quantization (SDLCQ) to the study of supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on R x S^1 x S^1. One of the compact directions is chosen to be light-like and the other to be space-like. Since the SDLCQ regularization explicitly preserves supersymmetry, this theory is totally finite, and thus we can solve for bound-state wave functions and masses numerically without renormalizing. We present an overview of all the massive states of this theory, and we see that the spectrum divides into two distinct and disjoint sectors. In one sector the SDLCQ approximation is only valid up to intermediate coupling. There we find a well defined and well behaved set of states, and we present a detailed analysis of these states and their properties. In the other sector, which contains a completely different set of states, we present a much more limited analysis for strong coupling only. We find that, while these state have a well defined spectrum, their masses grow with the transverse momentum cutoff. We present an overview of these states and their properties.

description: We consider the N=1 supersymmetric kink on a circle, i.e., on a finite interval with boundary or transition conditions which are locally invisible. For Majorana fermions, the single-particle Dirac Hamiltonian as a differential operator obeys simultaneously the three discrete symmetries of charge conjugation, parity, and time reversal. However, no single locally invisible transition condition can satisfy all three. When calculating sums over zero-point energies by mode number regularization, this gives a new rationale for a previous suggestion that one has to average over different choices of boundary conditions, such that for the combined set all three symmetries are obeyed. In particular it is shown that for twisted periodic or twisted antiperiodic boundary conditions separately both parity and time reversal are violated in the kink sector, as manifested by a delocalized momentum that cancels only in the average.

description: From optics to hydrodynamics, shock and rogue waves are widespread. Although they appear as distinct phenomena, new theories state that transitions between extreme waves are allowed. However, these have never been experimentally observed because of the lack of control strategies. We introduce a new concept of nonlinear wave topological control, based on the one-to-one correspondence between the number of wave packet oscillating phases and the genus of toroidal surfaces associated with the nonlinear Schrödinger equation solutions by the Riemann theta function. We prove it experimentally by reporting the first observation of supervised transitions between extreme waves with different genera, like the continuous transition from dispersive shock to rogue waves. Specifically, we use a parametric time-dependent nonlinearity to shape the asymptotic wave genus. We consider the box problem in a focusing Kerr-like photorefractive medium and tailor time-dependent propagation coefficients, as nonlinearity and dispersion, to explore each region in the state-diagram and include all the dynamic phases in the nonlinear wave propagation. Our result is the first example of the topological control of integrable nonlinear waves. This new technique casts light on dispersive shock waves and rogue wave generation, and can be extended to other nonlinear phenomena, from classical to quantum ones. The outcome is not only important for fundamental studies and control of extreme nonlinear waves, but can be also applied to spatial beam shaping for microscopy, medicine and spectroscopy, and to the broadband coherent light generation.

description: This study examines the economic potential of harvesting cellulosic biomass from corn and three types of grain sorghum rotated with soybeans, and harvesting perennial grasses instead of alfalfa. This research uses enterprise budgets based on experiment field data and Kansas Farm Management Association data. The results show that harvesting of crop residue from corn and sorghum, with the exception of an energy sorghum that does not produce grain is economically feasible under 2013 prices. A corn-soybean rotation has the highest net returns per acre. The dual purpose sorghum-soybean rotation has the second highest net returns per acre. Further, the annualized average net return from two of the perennial grasses grown on land typically used for alfalfa is also positive but not as positive as alfalfa.

description: Performing reliable measurements in optical metrology, such as those needed in ellipsometry, requires a calibrated source and detector, or a well-characterized reference sample. We present a novel interferometric technique to perform reliable ellipsometric measurements. This technique relies on the use of a non-classical optical source, namely polarization-entangled twin photons generated by spontaneous parametric downconversion from a nonlinear crystal, in conjunction with a coincidence-detection scheme. Ellipsometric measurements acquired with this scheme are absolute, i.e., they require neither source nor detector calibration, nor do they require a reference.

description: Theory predicts that a supermassive black hole binary (SMBHB) could be observed as a luminous active galactic nucleus (AGN) that periodically varies on the order of its orbital timescale. In X-rays, periodic variations could be caused by mechanisms including relativistic Doppler boosting and shocks. Here we present the first systematic search for periodic AGNs using $941$ hard X-ray light curves (14-195 keV) from the first 105 months of the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) survey (2004-2013). We do not find evidence for periodic AGNs in Swift-BAT, including the previously reported SMBHB candidate MCG+11$-$11$-$032. We find that the null detection is consistent with the combination of the upper-limit binary population in AGNs in our adopted model, their expected periodic variability amplitudes, and the BAT survey characteristics. We have also investigated the detectability of SMBHBs against normal AGN X-ray variability in the context of the eROSITA survey. Under our assumptions of a binary population and the periodic signals they produce which have long periods of hundreds of days, up to $13$% true periodic binaries can be robustly distinguished from normal variable AGNs with the ideal uniform sampling. However, we demonstrate that realistic eROSITA sampling is likely to be insensitive to long-period binaries because longer observing gaps reduce their detectability. In contrast, large observing gaps do not diminish the prospect of detecting binaries of short, few-day periods, as 19% can be successfully recovered, the vast majority of which can be identified by the first half of the survey.

description: We analyze the dynamics of a nanomechanical oscillator coupled to an electrical tunnel junction with an arbitrary voltage applied to the junction and arbitrary temperature of electrons in leads. We obtain the explicit expressions for the fluctuations of oscillator position, its damping/decoherence rate, and the current through the structure. It is shown that quantum heating of the oscillator results in nonlinearity of the current-voltage characteristics. The effects of mechanical vacuum fluctuations are also discussed.
Ultra High Energy Cosmic Ray, Superheavy Dark Matter and Extra Dimension

description: We propose a new mechanism for explaining the very long lifetime of superheavy dark matter X, which is proposed as a source of the ultra high-energy cosmic rays above the GZK cutoff (5 \times 10^{19} eV). The singlet X particle couples to the MSSM particles only through a bulk singlet field which develops the v.e.v. in the ``hidden'' brane. The distance between this hidden brane and the ``visible'' brane naturally leads to the exponential suppression of the coupling. The X particle decays predominantly into the higgsino and higgs boson of the MSSM, and its decay spectrum is completely determined once their properties are known.
