description: We show that in the simplest theories of spontaneous symmetry breaking one can have a stage of a fast-roll inflation. In this regime the standard slow-roll condition |m^2| << H^2 is violated. Nevertheless, this stage can be rather long if |m| is sufficiently small. Fast-roll inflation can be useful for generating proper initial conditions for the subsequent stage of slow-roll inflation in the very early universe. It may also be responsible for the present stage of accelerated expansion of the universe. We also make two observations of a more general nature. First of all, the universe after a long stage of inflation (either slow-roll or fast-roll) cannot reach anti-de Sitter regime even if the cosmological constant is negative. Secondly, the theories with the potentials with a "stable" minimum at V(ϕ)<0 in the cosmological background exhibit the same instability as the theories with potentials unbounded from below. This instability leads to the development of singularity with the properties practically independent of V(ϕ). However, the development of the instability in some cases may be so slow that the theories with the potentials unbounded from below can describe the present stage of cosmic acceleration even if this acceleration occurs due to the fast-roll inflation.

title: Nucleosynthesis in neutrino-driven winds: Influence of the nuclear physics input

Publisher: name: IOP Publishing
Year: 2024

description: We have performed hydrodynamical simulations of the long-time evolution of proto-neutron stars to study the nucleosynthesis using the resulting wind trajectories. Although the conditions found in the present wind models are not favourable for the production of heavy elements, a small enhancement of the entropy results in the production of r-process elements with A ≈ 195. This allows us to explore the sensitivity of their production to the hydrodynamical evolution (wind termination shock) and nuclear physics input used.

description: By means of high-resolution spectra we have measured radial velocities of the companion (hereafter COM J1740-5340) to the eclipsing millisecond pulsar PSR J1740-5340 in the Galactic globular cluster NGC 6397. The radial-velocity curve fully confirms that COM J1740-5340 is orbiting the pulsar and enables us to derive the most accurate mass ratio (M_ PSR/M_COM=5.85+/-0.13) for any non-relativistic binary system containing a neutron star. Assuming a pulsar mass in the range 1.3-1.9 Msun, the mass of COM J1740-5340 spans the interval 0.22-0.32 Msun, the inclination of the system is constrained within 56 deg <= i <= 47 deg and the Roche lobe radius is r_RL ~ 1.5-1.7 Rsun. A preliminary chemical abundance analysis confirms that COM J1740-5340 has a metallicity compatible with that measured for other stars in this metal-poor globular, but the unexpected detection of strong He I absorption lines implies the existence of regions at T>10,000 K, significantly warmer than the rest of the star. The intensity of this line correlates with the orbital phase, suggesting the presence of a region on the companion surface, heated by the millisecond pulsar flux.

description: Using household data from the 2009 General Household Survey, this paper examines the role of natural resource scarcity in rural development in South Africa, with a particular focus on water scarcity. It seeks to examine whether there is a direct link between household water and economic poverty of rural households, with households’ total monthly income used as an indicator of economic poverty. An adaptation of a comprehensive water poverty index, which considers water access, quality, use, and water-related environmental aspects is used to measure household-level water poverty. The empirical analysis uses an instrumental variable estimation framework in order to deal with the potential endogeneity between water and economic poverty. Results support the existence of a direct link between water and economic poverty, with water-poor households likely to be economically poor. In particular, the results suggest that access to good quality water from a reliable source significantly enhances rural households’ economic status. Also, access to water determines the realized impact of overall water poverty on a household’s economic status. The paper thus cautions development policy not to treat water and economic poverty in isolation; there is need for development policy in South Africa to streamline water use in rural development. In addition, development policies need to take into account the role of household heterogeneity in conditioning both household water and economic poverty levels.
Evaporating Planets in SNe Ia

description: I suggest that in rare cases type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) evaporate Jupiter-like planets that reside within a=50Ro from the SN, accounting for the presence of ~0.001Mo of hydrogen in the ejecta. It is not easy to form such planets. The common envelope evolution (CEE) might end with the formation of a circumbinary disk with a typical size of R(disk)~10-50Ro. However, the bright central star might prevent the formation of planets. Alternatively, the planets might be first-generation planets that survived the entire evolution. Interestingly, all five SN Ia binary scenarios (core degenerate; double degenerate; double detonation; single degenerate; WD-WD collision) might account for the presence of planets.

Photoexcited transients in disordered semiconductors: Quantum coherence at very short to intermediate times

description: We study theoretically electron transients in semiconductor alloys excited by light pulses shorter than 100 femtoseconds and tuned above the absorption edge during and shortly after the pulse, when disorder scattering is dominant. We use non-equilibrium Green functions employing the field-dependent self-consistent Born approximation. The propagators and the particle correlation function are obtained by a direct numerical solution of the Dyson equations in differential form. For the purely elastic scattering in our model system the solution procedures for the retarded propagator and for the correlation function can be decoupled.The propagator is used as an input in calculating the correlation function. Numerical results combined with a cumulant expansion permit to separate in a consistent fashion the dark and the induced parts of the self-energy. The dark behavior reduces to propagation of strongly damped quasi-particles; the field induced self-energy leads to an additional time non-local coherence. The particle correlation function is formed by a coherent transient and an incoherent back-scattered component. The particle number is conserved only if the field induced coherence is fully incorporated. The transient polarization and the energy balance are also obtained and interpreted.

description: Limited access to profitable markets and production resources by smallholders restricts expansion and investment in technologies that could increase efficiency and add value to primary production. Two cases from the DRC and Rwanda, targeting the collective marketing, value addition and processing of banana and Irish potatoes, are used to demonstrate the IAR4D approach. The results show that, through collective marketing and banana processing, farmers are able to increase their returns by about 50% compared to the period before IAR4D interventions. The shelf life of the products was also increased drastically. Market efficiency improved for Irish potatoes by reducing transaction costs and decreasing the market intermediaries who would extract larger margins at the expense of the producers. Thus the tonnage of potatoes marketed increased from about 3 to 15 MTs in less than one year, while farmers were able to earn up to 10% higher prices through the IPs. Transformation to prevent postharvest losses experienced by farmers in general and members of IPs in particular is recommended. The use of flexible contracts, coupled with support from credit institutions, is also recommended.

description: In this study we investigate the profitability of potato and pineapple enterprises and the technical efficiency and drivers of efficiency among potato farmers, chosen purposively within IAR4D project sites in southwestern Uganda. For enterprise profitability, a non-parametric net crop revenue analysis was used, while a stochastic frontier parametric approach was used to analyse technical efficiency. Both potato and pineapple enterprises were found to be profitable, although returns from pineapples were lower. Seasonality impacted on the gross returns of both enterprises. Pineapple prices were lower than for potatoes during the peak seasons, but off-peak prices rose 350% above the peak price, resulting in substantial increases in gross incomes. All potato farms were inefficient. However, female farmers were relatively more efficient than male farmers. Education was positively and significantly associated with efficiency, indicating that public investments in education have complementary and synergistic effects on IAR4D development outcomes in Uganda.

description: Local institutions are commonly referred to as mediating factors that govern the relationship between a community and the natural resource base upon which it depends. However, conventional agricultural research and extension approaches have had limited impact in positively influencing the role of institutions in natural resource management (NRM). In this paper we discuss the role of Integrated Agricultural Research for Development (IAR4D) in by-law enactment, implementation and compliance in southwestern Uganda, and the potential benefits of the IAR4D approach for the development of local-level institutions. Although the level of awareness of the enacted by-laws was highest in the conventional sites, compliance was highest in the innovation platform (IP) villages. With the multi-stakeholder participation of the IAR4D approach in the IPs, there was a conducive environment in which to formulate and implement new by-laws, such as those relating to the harvesting and marketing of produce. IAR4D was found to have the potential to empower individual farmers through their interactions with each other, as well as to increase inter-institutional interactions for increased information sharing among stakeholders, thus building social capital for collective action.

description: Conventional agricultural research approaches have generated research results with limited adoption rates in sub-Saharan Africa (SSA). Recently, a new research approach – integrated agricultural research for development (IAR4D) was introduced in SSA. The IAR4D approach goes beyond the conventional research focus on agricultural production technologies, as it includes marketing and development activities. This paper analyses the impact of IAR4D in the East and Central African region using panel data of 2 229 households drawn from the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC), Rwanda and Uganda. Country-level comparison of the IAR4D and conventional research approaches shows a non-significant difference in the two approaches for crop income, but a significant and positive impact when all countries are combined. Households participating in IAR4D showed significantly greater livestock income than households in conventional villages in Rwanda only. Given that the IAR4D impact assessment was done only two years after the start of the new approach, these results should be interpreted with care. There is need to conduct a thorough analysis after the programme has been running for a considerably longer time.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: Since the reform and opening-up, rural finance has made enormous contribution to rural economic development. However, with commercialization reform of financial institutions, the conflict between outflow of large funds and shortage of funds for rural economic development becomes prominent, leading to serious degradation of agricultural support function of rural finance. From the perspective of outflow of rural funds, this paper analyzes the problem of “deviation from agriculture” of rural financial business, and derives the conclusion that it is necessary and urgent to restore agricultural support function of rural finance. Then, it discusses restoration path for agricultural support function of rural finance. Finally, it comes up with some effective paths in accordance with existing problems in agricultural support function of rural finance.

description: For a number of quantum channels of interest, phase-flip errors occur far more frequently than bit-flip errors. When transmitting across these asymmetric channels, the decoding error rate can be reduced by tailoring the code used to the channel. However, analyzing the performance of stabilizer codes on these channels is made difficult by the #P-completeness of optimal decoding. To address this, at least for short codes, we demonstrate that the decoding error rate can be approximated by considering only a fraction of the possible errors caused by the channel. Using this approximate error rate calculation, we extend a recent result to show that there are a number of $[[5\leq n\leq12,1\leq k\leq3]]$ cyclic stabilizer codes that perform well on two different asymmetric channels. We also demonstrate that an indication of a stabilizer code's error rate is given by considering the error rate of a classical binary code related to the stabilizer. This classical error rate is far less complex to calculate, and we use it as the basis for a hill climbing algorithm, which we show to be effective at optimizing codes for asymmetric channels. Furthermore, we demonstrate that simple modifications can be made to our hill climbing algorithm to search for codes with desired structure requirements.

Tuning the Catalytic Properties of Monolayer MoS2 through doping and sulfur vacancies

description: Fuel cells in vehicles are the leading cause of carbon monoxide emissions. CO is one of the most dangerous gases in the atmosphere, as it binds to the hemoglobin in blood cells 200 times easier than O2. As the amount of CO in the blood stream increases, the level of oxygen decreases, which can lead to many neurological problems. To reduce the amount of CO in the atmosphere, scientists have focused on the adsorption of oxygen. The best substrates used today are platinum and palladium monolayers, which are very expensive. Because of this, researchers have searched for cheap materials, such as MoS2, that are able to adsorb oxygen. However, sulfur is a chemically inert site for the oxygen, which greatly decreases the catalytic potential of monolayer MoS2 sheets. Therefore, we carried out first-principles calculations to study the effect of substitutional doping and creating sulfur vacancies on the catalytic properties of MoS2. We calculated the adsorption energy of O on doped MoS2 sheets with vacancies, and compared it to the adsorption energy of O on a Pd monolayer. We found that doping MoS2 with Ir, Rh, Co and Fe significantly decreased the adsorption energy, to below -4 eV, indicating that doped MoS2 is a more effective catalyst than Pd. Incorporating sulfur vacancies into the doped MoS2 sheet was extremely effective, and decreased the adsorption energy below -6 eV. Our results show that iridium is the best catalyst as it has the lowest adsorption energy before and after sulfur vacancies were induced. We concluded that a combination of doping and creating vacancies in monolayer MoS2 sheets can greatly impact the catalytic behavior and make it a more effective, less expensive catalyst than Pt and Pd.

description: GX 3+1 is a low-mass X-ray binary that is persistently bright since its discovery in 1964. It was found to be an X-ray burster twenty years ago proving that the compact object in this system is a neutron star. The burst rate is so low that only 18 bursts were reported prior to 1996. The Wide Field Cameras on BeppoSAX have, through a dedicated monitoring program on the Galactic center region, increased the number of X-ray bursts from GX 3+1 by 61. Since GX 3+1 exhibits a slow (order of years) modulation in the persistent flux of about 50%, these observations opens up the unique possibility to study burst properties as a function of mass accretion rate for very low burst rates. This is the first time that bursts are detected from GX 3+1 in the high state. From the analysis we learn that all bursts are short with e-folding decay times smaller than 10 s. Therefore, all bursts are due to unstable helium burning. Furthermore, the burst rate drops sixfold in a fairly narrow range of 2-20 keV flux; we discuss possible origins for this.

description: Diglycolamides have been proposed for partitioning of trivalent actinides from high-level liquid waste (HLLW). Third-phase formation is an undesirable event during the course of solvent extraction of trivalent actinides from HLLW into the solution of N,N,N’,N’-tetra(2-ethylhexyl)diglycolamide (TEHDGA) in n-dodecane (n-DD). Polar reagents such as tri-n-butyl phosphate (TBP), and N,N-dihexyloctanamide (DHOA) have been added to the TEHDGA phase, as phase modifiers in significant concentration, to overcome the third-phase formation. To understand the role of these phase modifiers in controlling the third-phase formation, the extraction behaviour of nitric acid and the trivalent representative metal ion Nd(III) was studied in a binary solution containing TEHDGA and phase modifier in n-dodecane. The organic phase obtained after extraction was subjected to dynamic light-scattering studies to examine the aggregation behaviour of the reverse micelles formed upon extraction and to unravel the unique role of TBP and DHOA in controlling the third-phase formation. The study revealed that the addition of these modifiers brought down the average size of aggregates and their distribution in organic phase below the limiting aggregate size for third-phase formation and increased the dispersion of aggregates in the n-dodecane phase. Among the two phase modifiers proposed for trivalent actinide separation from HLLW, TBP has been identified as a promising reagent for minimizing the third-phase formation.

description: Polarized and unpolarized neutron inelastic scattering has been used to measure the spin excitations in the spin-charge-ordered stripe phase of La5/3Sr1/3NiO4. At high energies, sharp magnetic modes are observed characteristic of a static stripe lattice. The energy spectrum is described well by a linear spin wave model with intra- and inter-stripe exchange interactions between neighbouring Ni spins given by J = 15 +/- 1.5 meV and J' = 7.5 +/- 1.5 meV respectively. A pronounced broadening of the magnetic fluctuations in a band between 10 meV and 25 meV is suggestive of coupling to collective motions of the stripe domain walls.

description: Candida is one of the most prevalent fungal pathogens in clinical settings which form antibiotic-resistant biofilms on biomedical devices. Hence, there is a need for non-antimicrobial alternatives to combat these infections. The present study investigates the anti-biofilm effect of marine bacterial DNase by targeting the eDNA present in the biofilms of Candida spp. A strain of Vibrio alginolyticus (AMSII) which showed enhanced DNase activity was isolated from marine sediment. Treatment of young and mature Candida biofilms with purified marine bacterial DNase (MBD) caused a 60-80% reduction in biofilm biomass, similar to treatment with DNase I from Bovine pancreas. Scanning electron microscopy showed that MBD significantly reduced the formation of biofilms on urinary catheters and more importantly prevented the virulent yeast to hyphae dimorphic switch in C. albicans. The present study identified a potential non-antibiotic alternative therapy to eradicate Candida biofilms and can be used to develop enzyme fabricated antifouling indwelling medical devices.

description: The results of a Transient Grating experiment in a supercooled molecular liquid of anisotropic molecules and its theoretical interpretation are presented. These results show the existence of two distinct dynamical contributions in the response function of this experiment, density and orientation dynamics. These dynamics can be experimentally disentangled by varying the polarisation of the probe and diffracted beams and they have been identified and measured in a Heterodyne Detected experiment performed on m-toluidine. The results of the theory show a good qualitative agreement with the measurements at all temperatures.
