description: The international market for grains joins economic and political decision making at the national level. Outcomes predicted from the theory of comparative advantage can be potentially swayed by political swayed by political choices as well as technical factors. Empirical estiamtes of import demand elasticities for grains provided in this paper are based on a model that treats domestic agricultural policy as an active ingredient in trading decisions. Results show that domestic pricing, production, and stockholding policies of importing countries can and often do have an impact on demand elasticities at the international level. Taking into consideration the interdependence of domestic policy effects contributes to the development of effective agricultural and foreign policy.

description: We analyze the geometrical properties of trace-preserving Pauli maps. Using the Choi-Jamio\lkowski isomorphism, we express the Hilbert-Schmidt line and volume elements in terms of the eigenvalues of the Pauli map. We analytically compute the volumes of positive, trace-preserving Pauli maps and Pauli channels. In particular, we find the relative volumes of the entanglement breaking Pauli channels, as well as the channels that can be generated by a time-local generator. Finally, we show what part of the Pauli channels are P and CP-divisible, which is related to the notion of Markovianity.

description: Balancing the potentially serious outcomes of asymptomatic brucellosis and "waiting" for treatment in clinical practice is an urgent issue. Therefore, we assessed the follow-up outcomes and epidemiological characteristics of asymptomatic brucellosis in the absence of treatment to provide evidence-based clinical clues. We searched eight databases in which 3,610 studies from 1990 to 2021 were related to the follow-up outcomes of asymptomatic brucellosis. Thirteen studies, involving 107 cases, were finally included. Regarding the follow-up outcomes, we examined the presence or absence of symptoms and decreased serum agglutination test (SAT) titer. During the 0.5–18 months follow-up period, the pooled prevalence of appearing symptomatic was 15.4% (95% CI 2.1%–34.3%), cases that remained asymptomatic were 40.3% (95% CI 16.6%–65.8%), and decreased SAT titer was observed in 36.5% (95% CI 11.6%–66.1%). Subgroup analysis indicated that the pooled prevalence of appearing symptomatic with follow-up times of less than 6 months, 6–12 months, and 12–18 months was 11.5%, 26.4%, and 47.6%, respectively. The student subgroup had a higher prevalence of symptoms (46.6%) than the occupational and family populations. In conclusion, asymptomatic brucellosis has a high likelihood of appearing symptomatic and its severity may be underestimated. Active screening of occupational and family populations should be enhanced, and special attention should be paid to high-titer students for early intervention, if necessary. Additionally, future prospective, long-term, and large-sample follow-up studies are essential. Registration number: CRD42021254167
High-Energy Neutrinos from Cosmic Rays

description: We introduce neutrino astronomy from the observational fact that Nature accelerates protons and photons to energies in excess of 10^{20} and 10^{13} eV, respectively. Although the discovery of cosmic rays dates back close to a century, we do not know how and where they are accelerated. We review the facts as well as the speculations about the sources. Among these gamma ray bursts and active galaxies represent well-motivated speculations because these are also the sources of the highest energy gamma rays, with emission observed up to 20 TeV, possibly higher. We discuss why cosmic accelerators are also expected to be cosmic beam dumps producing high-energy neutrino beams associated with the highest energy cosmic rays. Cosmic ray sources may produce neutrinos from MeV to EeV energy by a variety of mechanisms. The important conclusion is that, independently of the specific blueprint of the source, it takes a kilometer-scale neutrino observatory to detect the neutrino beam associated with the highest energy cosmic rays and gamma rays. The technology for commissioning such instruments exists.

description: With the prospect of greater uncertainty in world markets, additional progress will be required to minimize the adverse effects of domestic support policies on international trade; otherwise, turbulent global economic conditions will generate even greater uncertainty and instability in world commodity markets. To obtain greater rattonalization of agricultural production and trade, improved empirical measures of the impacts of alternative domestic support programmes on international trade in farm products are required. Previous studies based on rates of protection have not adequately identified the effects of protection. An alternative concept-the "rate of distortmn" of world market prices-is developed in this paper to provide an improved measure of the impact of agricultural policy measures and to provide a more meaningful basis for future trade negotiations. The case example of wheat 1s used to Illustrate the potential benefits of such a new concept. In order to identify a balanced reduction in the effects of protection on international markets, evaluating rates of distortion is preferable to analyzing the impacts of a proportional change in rates of protection undertaken by all countries.

description: Policies affecting agricultural trade are a source of uncertamty for participants m international markets. Soyabeans and soyabean products are currently imported without duties by the European Community and are used extensively m livestock feed. Some have suggested that import leVIes or duties on soyabeans in Europe would encourage the use of domestically-produced feedstuffs and contribute to reducmg excess supplies of hvestock products. To analyze the implications of such a policy change, least-cost feed rations were developed for broilers, laying hens, pigs, and dairy cattle in France. Those hnear programmmg models can be used to estimate the changes m both the pnce and composltton of feed rations by varying the price of soya bean meal to reflect an import levy. Input demand equations are estimated and the elasticities derived from those equations are used to examine the adjustments m feed use and output resultmg from the higher compound feed price. The total effect of a higher soyabean meal pnce ts shown to be composed of the change m ration composition and the adjustment of livestock producers to the higher price of compound feed. The results indicate that import duties would have to raise the price of soyabean meal by 40 percent or more substantially to reduce its use in French hvestock rations. Preliminary results also suggest that the impact of a higher soyabean meal pnce on French livestock productmn and the use of domestically-produced feed grains and oilseeds would be relatively small.

description: Gravitational wave signals from compact astrophysical sources such as those observed by LIGO and Virgo require a high-accuracy, theory-based waveform model for the analysis of the recorded signal. Current inspiral-merger-ringdown models are calibrated only up to moderate mass ratios, thereby limiting their applicability to signals from high-mass ratio binary systems. We present EMRISur1dq1e4, a reduced-order surrogate model for gravitational waveforms of 13,500M in duration and including several harmonic modes for non-spinning black hole binary systems with mass-ratios varying from 3 to 10,000 thus vastly expanding the parameter range beyond the current models. This surrogate model is trained on waveform data generated by point-particle black hole perturbation theory (ppBHPT) both for large mass-ratio and comparable mass-ratio binaries. We observe that the gravitational waveforms generated through a simple application of ppBHPT to the comparable mass-ratio cases agree remarkably (and surprisingly) well with those from full numerical relativity after a rescaling of the ppBHPT's total mass parameter. This observation and the EMRISur1dq1e4 surrogate model will enable data analysis studies in the high-mass ratio regime, including potential intermediate mass-ratio signals from LIGO/Virgo and extreme-mass ratio events of interest to the future space-based observatory LISA.

description: Using the lens of cognitive poetics, this theoretical thesis examines how a majority or mainstream culture adolescent reader would use empathy with young adult novels featuring minority protagonists – that is, protagonists who are disabled, who are LGBT+, or who are of a minority race or ethnicity. In particular, this thesis focuses on the psychology theory of in-group and out-group categorizations, which demonstrates that we use more empathy with those we consider to be “like us” (in-group) and less empathy with those we consider to be “unlike us” (out-group). Because we are less likely to use empathy with out-group members, a majority culture reader is less likely to engage empathy with a text with a minority protagonist. This thesis argues that adolescence functions as a meaningful group categorization in young adult literature, and that it provides an in-group affiliation between the protagonist of a YA novel and an adolescent reader. It then further argues that this phenomenon changes how an adolescent reader would engage empathy with young adult novels featuring minority protagonists. The thesis investigates how this change occurs by examining in detail intersecting group categorizations in recent mimetic young adult novels with disabled, LGBT+, and/or minority racial protagonists, and by considering the relationship these categorizations create between the reader and the protagonist. It also examines patterns of how these novels encourage or discourage empathic engagement, and the effect of group categorizations upon this empathic engagement. The thesis concludes that because adolescence is able to function as an in-group in young adult literature, YA literature offers a specific advantage for adolescent readers, in that it has the potential to allow them to use more empathy with out-group members than they otherwise would be able to. Because empathic engagement with fiction also develops empathic abilities in the real world, YA literature also has a specific potential for developing out-group empathic abilities in majority culture adolescent readers, affecting their perceptions and actions outside of their reading experiences.

description: Despite increasing reports indicating the prognostic significance of immune cell abundance in high grade serous ovarian cancer (HGSOC), mutational processes by which tumours gain immunogenicity or develop immune evasion are yet to be identified. Mutational processes that play a key role in HGSOC tumourigenesis leave imprints of copy-number aberrations (CNA) in the patient’s genome. These CNA can be summarised into seven copy number (CN) signatures, each associated with a specific mutational process. To identify mutational process associated with determining the immune response to HGSOC, I investigated the correlation between CN signatures and the density of key prognostic immune cells in a cohort of 172 HGSOC samples. The exposure to signatures in each sample was previously quantified. I first developed two multiplex IHC protocols against CD3, CD8, FOXP3 and CD20, and quantified the total, tumour and stroma densities of CD3+, CD8+, CD8−, FOXP3+ and CD20+cells in the patient cohort using HALO image analysis software. I also quantified the abundance of other immune cells in the samples using gene expression data. I used linear mixed modelling to fit the immune densities, and assessed the ability of CN signatures to predict the model. This revealed that the presence of CN signature 6, associated with high genomic CN states, is inversely correlated with all measures of immune cell densities, while the presence of homologous recombination deficiency (HRD)-associated CN signature 7 correlates positively with immune cell abundance (p > 0.05, ANOVA). Samples with a combination of absent CN signature 6 and present CN signature 7 had the highest abundance of immune infiltrates. These results indicate that the balance between high CN states and HRD is associated with determining the immune response in HGSOC. Feature expansion of the immune markers analysed using gene expression data and imaging mass cytometry will also be discussed.

description: We consider the problem of simultaneous reduction of acoustic echo, reverberation and noise. In real scenarios, these distortion sources may occur simultaneously and reducing them implies combining the corresponding distortion-specific filters. As these filters interact with each other, they must be jointly optimized. We propose to model the target and residual signals after linear echo cancellation and dereverberation using a multichannel Gaussian modeling framework and to jointly represent their spectra by means of a neural network. We develop an iterative block-coordinate ascent algorithm to update all the filters. We evaluate our system on real recordings of acoustic echo, reverberation and noise acquired with a smart speaker in various situations. The proposed approach outperforms in terms of overall distortion a cascade of the individual approaches and a joint reduction approach which does not rely on a spectral model of the target and residual signals.

description: Based on the Johansen's cointegration method, this study analyses the convergence of the Finnish and Estonian coniferous prices and if there exist any long rum relationships between the wood assortments and species. The data is monthly time series from nominal delivery prices of spruce and pine sawlogs and pulpwood from the time period 1996-2003. Mainly, the results do not support the hypothesis of long run equilibrium of the roundwood prices between Finland and Estonia. Only the prices of pine sawlogs may contain information on the long run relationship. According to the descriptive trend analysis, however, all coniferous prices are converging against each other, and, if the trend growth of Estonia prices continues, they will coincide with Finnish prices in the forthcoming few years.

description: As part of USDA’s commitment to supporting the development and growth of food hubs, it often responds to inquiries from food hub planners and operators requesting technical assistance on food warehouse layout and design, facility management and operations, and physical volume capacities. In an effort to provide food hub stakeholders with on-the-ground examples of how food hubs manage distribution infrastructure, USDA worked with Tuscarora Organic Growers, an established producer cooperative in Pennsylvania, to document the stages of development of its aggregation and distribution warehouse. This document describes the cooperative’s solutions to warehouse layout, design, and function, and the associated costs of equipment and labor to gain the space capacity for handling certain amounts and types of product, with the hope that these insights will assist both new and expanding food hubs in making decisions about infrastructure investments.

description: The knowledge of factors affecting the end-consumers choice of building material for specific purposes, i.e., the mechanisms of substitute competition, necessary to understand the competitive situation of wood, is limited. In this paper interviews of floorcovering customers and sales representatives are analysed. The results suggested that by using a multivariate projection method, PLS-DA (Partial Least Square Discriminant Analysis), it is possible to extract the most important predictors of material preferences from answers to open-ended questions and make comparisons between the two groups, thus allowing partismony, as there is no need for follow-up study with pre-structured response alternatives to quantify variables (e.g., using Likert scales). End-consumers and sales representatives show agreement in their assessment of determinant attributes and appraisal of the different materials. Unlike the other materials, the decisive reasons for choosing wood appear to be exclusively non-functional.

The even-odd effect in the tunneling conductance is a direct manifestation of spontaneous interlayer phase coherence, and is similar to the even-odd resonance in the Cooper pair box problem in mesoscopic superconducting grains. Coherent fluctuations in the number of Cooper pairs in superconductors is analogous to the fluctuations in the relative number difference between the two layers in quantum Hall droplets.

description: Timber owners in western Oregon have been concerned about the erosion of price premiums for higher quality grades of Douglas-fir sawlogs over the past decade and the associated impacts on rotation decisions. Time series tests indicate that the ratio of #3 (lower quality) to #2(higher quality) sawlog prices did rise over the 1900-2000 period indicating a trend towards a convergence between the prices. To identify causes of this shift, reduced form equations for Douglas-fir sawlogs with time-varying coefficients were estimated using flexible least squares. Relative changes in reduced-form coefficients between grades suggested that prices of higher quality lumber grades became more important for #3 than #2 logs during this period while lower quality lumber grades became more important for #2. These shifts may have been the result of changes in the distribution of qualities within log grades (input quality) and log grade-specific technical improvement in sawmilling. Counterfactual simulations of log prices without historical trends in the reduces form variables had no impact on the #2-#3 log price relation though some cases did effect the relation of both #2 and #3 with #4 (the lowest grade).

description: This paper presents a physics-based data-driven method to learn predictive reduced-order models (ROMs) from high-fidelity simulations, and illustrates it in the challenging context of a single-injector combustion process. The method combines the perspectives of model reduction and machine learning. Model reduction brings in the physics of the problem, constraining the ROM predictions to lie on a subspace defined by the governing equations. This is achieved by defining the ROM in proper orthogonal decomposition (POD) coordinates, which embed the rich physics information contained in solution snapshots of a high-fidelity computational fluid dynamics (CFD) model. The machine learning perspective brings the flexibility to use transformed physical variables to define the POD basis. This is in contrast to traditional model reduction approaches that are constrained to use the physical variables of the high-fidelity code. Combining the two perspectives, the approach identifies a set of transformed physical variables that expose quadratic structure in the combustion governing equations and learns a quadratic ROM from transformed snapshot data. This learning does not require access to the high-fidelity model implementation. Numerical experiments show that the ROM accurately predicts temperature, pressure, velocity, species concentrations, and the limit-cycle amplitude, with speedups of more than five orders of magnitude over high-fidelity models. Our ROM simulation is shown to be predictive 200% past the training interval. Moreover, ROM-predicted pressure traces accurately match the phase of the pressure signal and yield good approximations of the limit-cycle amplitude.

description: We present experimental measurements on the spontaneous formation of compact spiral structures in vertically-vibrated granular chains. Under weak vibration, when the chain is quasi two-dimensional and self-avoiding, spiral structures emerge from generic initial configurations. We compare geometrical characteristics of the spiral with that of an ideal tight spiral. Globally, the spiral undergoes a slow rotation such that to keep itself wound, while internally, fast vibrational modes are excited along the backbone with transverse oscillations dominating over longitudinal ones. Spirals have an extremely small volume in phase space, and hence, their formation demonstrates how nonequilibrium dynamics can result in a nonuniform sampling of phase space.

description: Histories of the early gay rights movement in America have aptly placed emphasis on the Mattachine Society of Washington (MSW), founded in 1961, and its founder, Frank Kameny. Told as part of broader social or political histories of the 1960s “homophile” movement, these narratives often recognize the MSW’s ideological and tactical contributions to the fight against the federal government’s gay purges; indeed, the Society is most known for the first gay pickets of the White House and its militant slogan, “Gay is Good.” These histories, however, have overlooked a crucial component of the MSW’s story: its legal alliance with the American Civil Liberties Union. This dissertation relies on tens of thousands of pages of archived personal papers (belonging to Kameny, his fellow homophile activists, and ACLU attorneys), recently declassified legal transcripts and government documents, the ACLU’s own archives, dozens of audio recordings from the 1960s and 70s, and personal interviews with surviving MSW and ACLU members. Chapter One is a case study of Frank Kameny’s dismissal from federal employment, a result of his homosexuality, and his development as 1) a plaintiff suing the government and 2) an early gay activist. Kameny saw the two roles as identical, and he formed the MSW to fight the federal government in court. Chapter Two follows the early years of the Society and its efforts to ally with the National Capital Area Civil Liberties Union (NCACLU), formed within days of the MSW. Chapter Three examines a turning point in the relationship, when the NCACLU defended the MSW before Congress in 1963 and began to embrace gay rights as constitutional rights. Chapter Four traces the rise and fall of the MSW’s picketing campaign in relation to its legal fight and the deployment of respectability. Finally, Chapter Five examines the fall of the MSW and the rise of modern gay pride celebrations, concluding that the Society ceased to exist in 1969 not only because of post-Stonewall irrelevance, but also because the NCACLU absorbed the group’s raison d’être. I conclude that the greatest historical contribution of the MSW was its formulation and popularization of gay pride, first, as legal argument, and second, as a movement ideology to spur additional homosexual plaintiffs willing to sue the government. While previous histories emphasize Gay Liberation’s eclipse of the relatively conservative Society, this dissertation demonstrates that the MSW’s demise in fact represented the fulfilment of its effort to transform gay rights into a valid civil liberties issue. Today, as marginalized Americans and civil libertarians fight new legal battles against the federal government, this dissertation sheds light on how such struggles and alliances can shape minority groups, their ideologies, and their collective memories.

The Principle of the Fermionic Projector, Chapters 5-8

Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: Mathematical Physics (math-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The "principle of the fermionic projector" provides a new mathematical framework for the formulation of physical theories and is a promising approach for physics beyond the standard model. The book begins with a brief review of relativity, relativistic quantum mechanics and classical gauge theories, with the emphasis on the basic physical concepts and the mathematical foundations. The external field problem and Klein's paradox are discussed and then resolved by introducing the so-called fermionic projector, a global object in space-time which generalizes the notion of the Dirac sea. The mathematical core of the book is to give a precise definition of the fermionic projector and to employ methods of hyperbolic differential equations for its detailed analysis. The fermionic projector makes it possible to formulate a new type of variational principles in space-time. The mathematical tools for the analysis of the corresponding Euler-Lagrange equations are developed. A particular variational principle is proposed which gives rise to an effective interaction showing many similarities to the interactions of the standard model. The main chapters of the book are easily accessible for beginning graduate students in mathematics or physics. Several appendices provide supplementary material which will be useful to the experienced researcher.

description: The purpose is to find differences in return on capital for Japanese pulp and paper companies. The hypothesis is that return on capital can be explained by mill size, productivity, production line, financial data and use of wood resources. Return on capital is measured as income before tax related to stockholders' equity. This variable can be split into profit margin and asset utilization rate. The dataset from 1991-2001 consists of 13 larger Japanese pulp and paper companies. The best model fit is found when using asset utilization rate as dependent variable. Significant variables are asset utilization rate lagged one time period, labor productivity, capital productivity, paper production as a share of total paper and board production, total value of assets on the books and solidity. Among these variables, lagged dependent variable, capital productivity, and total value of assets on the books are negatively correlated with asset utilization rate; the others are positively correlated.

description: The impedance boundary condition is used to calculate the Casimir force in configurations of two parallel plates and a shpere (spherical lens) above a plate at both zero and nonzero temperature. The impedance approach allows one to find the Casimir force between the realistic test bodies regardless of the electromagnetic fluctuations inside the media. Although this approach is an approximate one, it has wider areas of application than the Lifshitz theory of the Casimir force. The general formulas of the impedance approach to the theory of the Casimir force are given and the formal substitution is found for connecting it with the Lifshitz formula. The range of micrometer separations between the test bodies which is interesting from the experimental point of view is investigated in detail. It is shown that at zero temperature the results obtained on the basis of the surface impedance method are in agreement with those obtained in framework of the Lifshitz theory within a fraction of a percent. The temperature correction to the Casimir force from the impedance method coincides with that from the Lifshitz theory up to four significant figures. The case of millimeter separations which corresponds to the normal skin effect is also considered. At zero temperature the obtained results have good agreement with the Lifshitz theory. At nonzero temperature the impedance approach is not subject to the interpretation problems peculiar to the zero-frequency term of the Lifshitz formula in dissipative media.

AbstractLazertinib (LECLAZA®) is an oral, third-generation, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) being developed by Yuhan and Janssen Biotech for the treatment of non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC). It is a brain-penetrant, irreversible EGFR-TKI that targets the T790M mutation and activating EGFR mutations Ex19del and L858R, while sparing wild type-EGFR. In January 2021, lazertinib received its first approval for the treatment of patients with EGFR T790M mutation-positive locally advanced or metastatic NSCLC who have previously received EGFR-TKI therapy. This article summarizes the milestones in the development of lazertinib leading to this first approval.

Radio Halo Formation through Magneto-turbulent Particle Acceleration in Clusters of Galaxies

description: We developed a magneto-turbulent model for the cosmic ray (CR) electrons seen in the radio halo clusters of galaxies. Steady state momentum distribution functions of the CR electrons are calculated for given spectra of the turbulent Alfven waves. The radio spectrum produced by the obtained CR electron distribution is compared to the observed radio spectrum of the Coma radio halo. We find that the observed radio spectrum of the Coma cluster is well reproduced when the spectral index of the turbulent Alfven waves is 2.8. The obtained energy spectrum of the turbulent Alfven waves is steeper than that expected from the turbulence theory, suggesting back reaction of the particle acceleration. The fitting procedure constraints the amplitude of the turbulent Alfven waves as well as the spectral index. Then we estimate the dissipation of the turbulent Alfven waves, which is found to be less than the cooling rate by X-ray radiation. We suggest that the turbulence which is sufficient for particle acceleration is developed in the clusters containing the radio halo. It is most likely that cluster mergers create the turbulence and seed relativistic electrons.
