description: We compute the entanglement entropy of a massless spin $2$ field in a sphere in flat Minkowski space. We describe the theory with a linearized metric perturbation field $h_{μν}$ and decompose it in tensor spherical harmonics. We fix the gauge such that a) the two dynamical modes for each angular momentum decouple and have the dynamics of scalar spherical modes, and b) the gauge-fixed field degrees of freedom inside the sphere represent gauge invariant operators of the theory localized in the same region. In this way the entanglement entropy turns out to be equivalent to the one of a pair of free massless scalars where the contributions of the $l=0$ and $l=1$ modes have been subtracted. The result for the coefficient of the universal logarithmic term is $-61/45$ and coincides with the one computed using the mutual information.

description: The superconducting state of an infinitely long superconducting cylinder surrounded by a medium which enhances its superconductivity near the boundary is studied within the nonlinear Ginzburg-Landau theory. This enhancement can be due to the proximity of another superconductor or due to surface treatment. Quantities like the free energy, the magnetization and the Cooper-pair density are calculated. Phase diagrams are obtained to investigate how the critical field and the critical temperature depend on this surface enhancement for different values of the Ginzburg-Landau parameter κ. Increasing the superconductivity near the surface leads to higher critical fields and critical temperatures. For small cylinder diameters only giant vortex states nucleate, while for larger cylinders multivortices can nucleate. The stability of these multivortex states also depends on the surface enhancement. For type-I superconductors we found the remarkable result that for a range of values of the surface extrapolation length the superconductor can transit from the Meissner state into superconducting states with vorticity L > 1. Such a behaviour is not found for the case of large κ, i.e. type-II superconductivity.

description: The physics programme for a coming electron linear collider is dominated by events with final states containing many jets. We develop in this paper the opinion that the best approach is to optimise the independent measurement of the tracks in the tracker, the photons in the electromagnetic calorimeter and the neutral hadrons in the camorimetry, together with a good lepton identification. This can be achieved with a high granularity calorimetry providing particle separation, through an efficient energy flow algorithm.

description: Mass formulae for light meson multiplets derived by means of exotic commutator technique are written for complex masses and considered as complex mass sum rules (CMSR). The real parts of the (CMSR) give the well known mass formulae for real masses (Gell-Mann--Okubo, Schwinger and Ideal Mixing ones) and the imaginary parts of CMSR give appropriate sum rules for the total hadronic widths - width sum rules (WSR). Most of the observed meson nonets satisfy the Schwinger mass formula (S nonets). The CMSR predict for S nonet that the points $(m,Γ)$ form the rectilinear stitch (RS) on the complex mass plane. For low-mass nonets WSR are strongly violated due to ``kinematical'' suppression of the particle decays, but the violation decreases as the mass icreases and disappears above $\sim 1.5 GeV$. The slope $k_s$ of the RS is not predicted, but the data show that it is negative for all S nonets and its numerical values are concentrated in the vicinity of the value -0.5. If $k_s$ is known for a nonet, we can evaluate ``kinematical'' suppressions of its individual particles. The masses and the widths of the S nonet mesons submit to some rules of ordering which matter in understanding the properties of the nonet. We give the table of the S nonets indicating masses, widths, mass and width orderings. We show also mass-width diagrams for them. We suggest to recognize a few multiplets as degenerate octets. In Appendix we analyze the nonets of $1^+$ mesons.

description: During beer production, yeast generate ethanol that is exported to the extracellular environment where it accumulates. Depending on the initial carbohydrate concentration in the wort a high concentration of ethanol can be achieved in beer, often higher than 20% (v/v). It is noteworthy that the effects of elevated ethanol concentrations generated during beer fermentation resemble those of heat shock stress, with similar responses observed in both situations, such as the activation of proteostasis and protein quality control mechanisms in different cell compartments, including endoplasmic reticulum (ER), mitochondria, and cytosol. Despite the extensive published molecular and biochemical data regarding the roles of proteostasis in different organelles of yeast cells, little is known about how this mechanism impacts beer fermentation and how different proteostasis mechanisms found in ER, mitochondria, and cytosol communicate with each other during ethanol/fermentative stress. Supporting this integrative view, transcriptome data analysis was applied using publicly available information for a lager yeast strain grown under in beer production conditions. The transcriptome data indicated upregulation of genes that encode chaperones, co-chaperones, unfolded protein response elements in ER and mitochondria, ubiquitin ligases, proteasome components, N-glycosylation quality control pathway proteins, and components of processing bodies (p-bodies) and stress granules (SGs) during lager beer fermentation. Thus, the main purpose of this hypothesis and theory manuscript is to provide a concise picture of how inter-organellar proteostasis mechanisms are connected with one another and with biological processes that may modulate the viability and/or vitality of yeast populations during HG/VHG beer fermentation and serial repitching.

description: Sustainable agricultural growth in developing countries is jeopardized by soil degradation consequent upon intensive cultivation and use of increasing doses of chemical inputs. To pave the way to sustainable agricultural growth we develop a model that incorporates organic fertilizer into the production technology as an input having a double role of enhancement of soil fertility and conservation of the ecosystem. The results show that public intervention can make equilibrium agricultural growth sustainable by maintaining conservation of soil fertility in a setting with non-convex resource regeneration. The equilibrium is found to be dynamically stable. On the basis of our comparative static results we argue for soil preserving and productivityenhancing technological innovations and suggest a combined tax and direct payment scheme to encourage the use of soil conserving inputs.

description: Women rice farmers in Africa are often constrained in accessing resources and technologies adapted to their requirements. AfricaRice has targeted women in disseminating NERICA to consider their needs. Along with top-down strategies, also processes that strengthen women rice growers at the grassroots are essential. Farmer groups’ social relation networks and collective action might open opportunities for women. This qualitative case study examines the interplay of technology adoption, social capital, collective action and women’s empowerment by focusing on women’s perceptions in the context of NERICA in Benin. Findings show that social capital and collective action enhance women’s economic and social position and their personal advancement. The study indicates what kind of external support might be useful to exploit, in the best possible way, the potential of collective action as a means for promoting women’s holistic development. The results can help in the design of strategies for women’s empowerment within NERICA dissemination activities.

description: Child nutrition remains one of the most important development concerns of the Ethiopian government. In view of the fact that child malnutrition cannot be tackled without understanding its causes, the paper explores the key determinants of child malnutrition in Kombolcha districts of Eastern Hararghe, Ethiopia. The study used a two-stage sampling procedure to collect cross-sectional data from 249 under five years of age children. The data collected were analyzed and discussed using several descriptive statistics and logit regression model. The survey result revealed that 45.8%, 28.9% and 11.2% of sample children are stunted, underweight and wasted, respectively. The estimation results indicate that child nutritional status is strongly associated with the child’s age, gender, immunization status and the mother’s use of antenatal care, farm size, household size, water source, latrine use and incidence of morbidity. The paper concludes by highlighting some policy interventions required to raise child nutrition status.
Monte Carlo study of the critical properties of noncollinear Heisenberg magnets: $O(3)\times O(2)$ universality class

description: The critical properties of the antiferromagnetic Heisenberg model on the three-dimensional stacked-triangular lattice are studied by means of a large-scale Monte Carlo simulation in order to get insight into the controversial issue of the criticality of the noncollinear magnets with the $O(3)\times O(2)$ symmetry. The maximum size studied is $384^3$, considerably larger than the sizes studied by the previous numerical works on the model. Availability of such large-size data enables us to examine the detailed critical properties including the effect of corrections to the leading scaling. Strong numerical evidence of the continuous nature of the transition is obtained. Our data indicates the existence of significant corrections to the leading scaling. Careful analysis by taking account of the possible corrections yield critical exponents estimates, $α=0.44(3)$, $β=0.26(2)$, $γ=1.03(5)$, $ν=0.52(1)$, $η=0.02(5)$, and the chirality exponents $β_κ=0.40(3)$ and $γ_κ=0.77(6)$, supporting the existence of the $O(3)$ chiral (or $O(3)\times O(2)$) universality class governed by a new `chiral' fixed point. We also obtain an indication that the underlying fixed point is of the focus-type, characterized by the complex-valued correction-to-scaling exponent, $ω=0.1^{+0.4}_{-0.05} + i\ 0.7^{+0.1}_{-0.4}$. The focus-like nature of the chiral fixed point accompanied by the spiral-like renormalization-group (RG) flow is likely to be the origin of the apparently complicated critical behavior. The results are compared and discussed in conjunction with the results of other numerical simulations, several distinct types of RG calculations including the higher-order perturbative massive and massless RG calculations and the nonperturbative functional RG calculation, and the conformal-bootstrap program.

description: This paper presents the method and findings of a contingent valuation (CV) study that aimed to elicit United Kingdom citizens' willingness to pay to support legislation to phase out the use of battery cages for egg production in the European Union (EU). The method takes account of various biases associated with the CV technique, including 'warm glow', 'part-whole' and sample response biases. Estimated mean willingness to pay to support the legislation is used to estimate the annual benefit of the legislation to UK citizens. This is compared with the estimated annual costs of the legislation over a 12-year period, which allows for readjustment by the UK egg industry. The analysis shows that the estimated benefits of the legislation outweigh the costs. The study demonstrates that CV is a potentially useful technique for assessing the likely benefits associated with proposed legislation. However, estimates of CV studies must be treated with caution. It is important that they are derived from carefully designed surveys and that the willingness to pay estimation method allows for various biases. © 2003 Elsevier Science B.V. All rights reserved.

description: Using data from the Malawi Financial Markets and Household Food Security Survey, this paper examines the effect of access to credit from formal sources, and tobacco plot size, on cost inefficiency among Malawian smallholder tobacco cultivators. Farm-specific cost inefficiency is estimated within the framework of stochastic frontier analysis. Access to credit is measured as the sum of household members' self-reported credit limits at credit organisations, arguably a truer measure of an exogenous credit constraint than credit program participation or actual loan uptake. It is found that tobacco cultivation is significantly less cost inefficient per acre on larger plots. While access to credit by itself has no statistically discernible effect on cost inefficiency, it reduces the gain in cost efficiency from a larger plot size. © 2003 Elsevier Science B.V.

description: Tunneling measurements have been carried out on heavily underdoped, slightly overdoped and partially Ni-substituted Bi2212 single crystals by using a break-junction technique. We find that in-plane tunneling spectra below Tc are the combination of incoherent part from the pseudogap and coherent quasiparticle peaks. There is a clear correlation between the magnitude of the pseudogap and the magnitude of the superconducting gap in Bi2212. The analysis of the data suggests that the tunneling pseudogap in Bi2212 is predominantly a charge-density-wave gap on dynamical charge stripes. The tunneling characteristics corresponding to the quasiparticle peaks are in excellent agreement with theoretical predictions made for a quasi-one dimensional topological-excitation liquid. In addition, the analysis of data measured by different techniques shows that the phase coherence along the c-axis is established at Tc due to spin fluctuations in local antiferromagnetic domains of CuO2 planes.

description: The Carnegie-Chicago Hubble Program (CCHP) is building a direct path to the Hubble constant (H0) using Population II stars as the calibrator of the SN Ia-based distance scale. This path to calibrate the SN Ia is independent of the systematics in the traditional Cepheid-based technique. In this paper, we present the distance to M101, the host to SN2011fe, using the I-band tip of the red giant branch (TRGB) based on observations from the ACS/WFC instrument on the Hubble Space Telescope. The CCHP targets the halo of M101 where there is little to no host-galaxy dust, the red giant branch is isolated from nearly all other stellar populations, and there is virtually no source confusion or crowding at the magnitude of the tip. Applying the standard procedure for the TRGB method from the other works in the CCHP series, we find a foreground-extinction-corrected M101 distance modulus of {μ_0}=29.07+/-0.04(stat)+/-0.05(sys) mag, which corresponds to a distance of D=6.52+/-0.12(stat)+/-0.15(sys) Mpc. This result is consistent with several recent Cepheid-based determinations, suggesting agreement between Population I and II distance scales for this nearby SN Ia-host galaxy. We further analyze four archival datasets for M101 that have targeted its outer disk to argue that targeting in the stellar halo provides much more reliable distance measurements from the TRGB method due to the combination of multiple structural components and heavily population contamination. Application of the TRGB in complex regions will have sources of uncertainty not accounted for in commonly used uncertainty measurement techniques.

description: Inducing or enhancing superconductivity in topological materials is an important route toward topological superconductivity. Reducing the thickness of transition metal dichalcogenides (e.g. WTe2 and MoTe2) has provided an important pathway to engineer superconductivity in topological matters; for instance, emergent superconductivity with Tc=0.82 K was observed in monolayer WTe2 which also hosts intriguing quantum spin Hall effect, although the bulk crystal is nonsuperconducting. However, such monolayer sample is difficult to obtain, unstable in air, and with extremely low Tc, which could pose a grand challenge for practical applications. Here we report an experimentally convenient approach to control the interlayer coupling to achieve tailored topological properties, enhanced superconductivity and good sample stability through organic cation intercalation of the Weyl semimetals MoTe2 and WTe2. The as-formed organic-inorganic hybrid crystals are weak topological insulators with enhanced Tc of 7.0 K for intercalated MoTe2 (0.25 K for pristine crystal) and 2.3 K for intercalated WTe2 (2.8 times compared to monolayer WTe2). Such organic-cationintercalation method can be readily applied to many other layered crystals, providing a new pathway for manipulating their electronic, topological and superconducting properties.

description: Using the Landau kinetic equation to study the non-equilibrium behavior of interacting Fermi systems is one of the crowning achievements of Landau's Fermi liquid theory. While thorough study of transport modes has been done for standard three-dimensional Fermi liquids, an equally in-depth analysis for two dimensional Fermi liquids is lacking. In applying the Landau kinetic equation (LKE) to a two-dimensional Fermi liquid, we obtain unconventional behavior of the zero sound mode $c_0$. As a function of the usual dimensionless parameter $s=ω/qv_F$, we find two peculiar results: First, for $|s|>1$ we see the propagation of an undamped mode for weakly interacting systems. This differs from the three dimensional case where an undamped mode only propagates for repulsive interactions and the mode experiences Landau damping for any arbitrary attractive interaction. Second, we find that regardless of interaction strength, a propagating mode is forbidden for $|s|<1$. This is profoundly different from the three-dimensional case where a mode can propagate, albeit damped. In addition, we present a revised Pomeranchuk instability condition for a two-dimensional Fermi liquid as well as equations of motion for the fluid that follow directly from the LKE. In two dimensions, we find a constant minimum for all Landau parameters for $\ell\geq 1$ which differs from the three dimensional case. Finally we discuss the effect of a Coulomb interaction on the system resulting in the plasmon frequency $ω_p$ exhibiting a crossover to the zero sound mode.

description: Additional file 4. CD206- and FRβ BiTE-induced T cell-mediated killing of MDMs is dependent on the perforin pathway. T cells were co-cultured with autologous CFSE-stained MDMs and treated (or not) with the indicated BiTEs for 96 h, at which point % Live cells were calculated with Celigo image cytometry. For inhibition of perforin, T cells were pre-treated for 2 h with Concanamycin A (100 ng/mL), or an equivalent concentration of vehicle control (DMSO), then washed prior to BiTE addition. Inhibitors of Fas/FasL (anti-Fas antibody, clone ZB4, 2 μg/mL) and TRAIL (TRAIL-R1-Fc, 1 μg/mL) were added at the point of BiTE treatment and not removed. Data show mean ± SD of biological triplicates. Statistical significance was assessed by two-way ANOVA followed by Bonferroni post-hoc analysis, with each treatment being compared to the relevant “Mock” condition (*, P

description: We prove an analogue for Hodge modules of Pink's theorem on the degeneration of l-adic sheaves (Math. Ann. 292). Let j be the open immersion of a Shimura variety M into its Baily-Borel compactification. Its boundary has a natural stratification into locally closed subsets, each of which is itself a Shimura variety (up to taking the quotient by the action of a finite group). Let i be the inclusion of an individual such stratum M'. Saito's formalism gives a functor i^* j_* from the bounded derived category of Hodge modules on M to that of Hodge modules on M'. Our result gives a formula for the effect of i^* j_* on automorphic Hodge modules, i.e., variations of Hodge structure coming from algebraic representations of the group associated to M. This formula is of a purely representation theoretical nature.

Unification of Aeolian and Fluvial Sediment Transport Rate from Granular Physics

description: One of the physically least understood characteristics of geophysical transport of sediments along sediment surfaces is the well known experimental observation that the sediment transport rate $Q$ is linearly dependent on the fluid shear stress $τ$ applied onto the surface in air, but is nonlinearly dependent on $τ$ in water. Using transport simulations for a wide range of driving conditions, we show that the scaling depends on the manner in which the kinetic fluctuation energy of transported particles is dissipated: via predominantly fluid drag and quasistatic contacts (linear) versus fluid drag and quasistatic and collisional contacts (nonlinear). We use this finding to derive a scaling law (asymptotically $Q\simτ^2$) in simultaneous agreement with measurements in water and air streams.

Results of preliminary tests allow us to suggest a possible application of this new type of RPC for tracking.

Algebraic Bethe Ansatz for a discrete-state BCS pairing model

description: We show in detail how Richardson's exact solution of a discrete-state BCS (DBCS) model can be recovered as a special case of an algebraic Bethe Ansatz solution of the inhomogeneous XXX vertex model with twisted boundary conditions: by implementing the twist using Sklyanin's K-matrix construction and taking the quasiclassical limit, one obtains a complete set of conserved quantities, H_i, from which the DBCS Hamiltonian can be constructed as a second order polynomial. The eigenvalues and eigenstates of the H_i (which reduce to the Gaudin Hamiltonians in the limit of infinitely strong coupling) are exactly known in terms of a set of parameters determined by a set of on-shell Bethe Ansatz equations, which reproduce Richardson's equations for these parameters. We thus clarify that the integrability of the DBCS model is a special case of the integrability of the twisted inhomogeneous XXX vertex model. Furthermore, by considering the twisted inhomogeneous XXZ model and/or choosing a generic polynomial of the H_i as Hamiltonian, more general exactly solvable models can be constructed. -- To make the paper accessible to readers that are not Bethe Ansatz experts, the introductory sections include a self-contained review of those of its feature which are needed here.

description: The primary purpose of a marketing system has been assumed to be one of distribution - to distribute goods from those who produce to those who consume in an orderly manner consistent with the rules and preference of individuals, government and society. Since most of the people in the Kavango and the Caprivi rely heavily on agriculture and practise subsistence farming, it has to be established whether a market is present and how well it functions. Settlements in both the areas are located along the rivers, flood plains and the main roads. Since 1960 the population has increased as indicated in Table 1.
Prediction of ferroelectricity-driven Berry curvature enabling charge- and spin-controllable photocurrent in tin telluride monolayers

description: In symmetry-broken crystalline solids, pole structures of Berry curvature (BC) can emerge, and they have been utilized as a versatile tool for controlling transport properties. For example, the monopole component of the BC is induced by the time-reversal symmetry breaking, and the BC dipole arises from a lack of inversion symmetry, leading to the anomalous Hall and nonlinear Hall effects, respectively. Based on first-principles calculations, we show that the ferroelectricity in a tin telluride monolayer produces a unique BC distribution, which offers charge- and spin-controllable photocurrents. Even with the sizable band gap, the ferroelectrically driven BC dipole is comparable to those of small-gap topological materials. By manipulating the photon handedness and the ferroelectric polarization, charge and spin circular photogalvanic currents are generated in a controllable manner. The ferroelectricity in group-IV monochalcogenide monolayers can be a useful tool to control the BC dipole and the nonlinear optoelectronic responses.

description: Millimeter wave beam alignment (BA) is a challenging problem especially for large number of antennas. Compressed sensing (CS) tools have been exploited due to the sparse nature of such channels. This paper presents a novel deterministic CS approach for BA. Our proposed sensing matrix which has a Kronecker-based structure is sparse, which means it is computationally efficient. We show that our proposed sensing matrix satisfies the restricted isometry property (RIP) condition, which guarantees the reconstruction of the sparse vector. Our approach outperforms existing random beamforming techniques in practical low signal to noise ratio (SNR) scenarios.

We obtain seven states of the $Ξ_{bb}$ type with energies between $10408$ and $10869$ MeV and one $Ω_{bbb}$ state at $15212$ MeV.

description: The development of the traditional small-scale farming sector in Namibia will depend on the adoption of relevant productivity-increasing technologies by a majority of farm households. The World Bank has pointed to the difficulties and disappointing record of "harnessing technology" for the benefit of African farmers (IBRD, 1989). The structural adjustment programmes of the 1980s focused on improving incentives for small farmers to adopt improved technology by "getting prices right". But it is now recognised that methods developed to generate and disseminate technology for large-scale commercial farmers need to be adjusted to serve the interests of small resource-poor farmers. This paper reviews the performance of two new approaches (on-farm research (OFR) and training and visit (T&V)) that have been introduced to respond better to the needs of traditional farm households. The experience suggests that adjustments in research approach and extension management could have a bigger impact if more attention is given to integration with other actors in the technology generation and dissemination process.
