description: DQ Tau is a young low-mass spectroscopic binary, consisting of two almost equal-mass stars on a 15.8 day period surrounded by a circumbinary disk. We analyzed DQ Tau's light curves obtained by Kepler K2, the Spitzer Space Telescope, and ground-based facilities. We observed variability phenomena, including rotational modulation by stellar spots, energetic stellar flares, brightening events around periastron due to increased accretion, and short dips due to temporary circumstellar obscuration. The study on DQ Tau will help in discovering and understanding the formation and evolution of other real-world examples of "Tatooine-like" systems. This is especially important because more and more evidence points to the possibility that all Sun-like stars were born in binary or multiple systems that broke up later due to dynamical interactions.

description: The insurgence of exchange rate volatility over the years has gained the attention of not only scholars but also policy makers around the world. This paper investigates the influence of exchange rate volatility to the financial performance of agriculture firms in Malaysia. Authors use the system GMM dynamic panel techniques, wavelet coherence technique and GARCH (1, 1) for the period of 2001 and 2015. The findings show that the volatility of exchange rate of Malaysian Ringgit (RM) has a negative impact on the financial performance of agriculture firms in Malaysia. The ARME and AVA demonstrate a positive impact on the financial performance at 1% significance level for the full sample. The findings also reveal that financial performance, exchange rate, consumer price index, and interest rate comove while using the wavelet coherence.
Supersymmetric Curvatons and Phase-Induced Curvaton Fluctuations

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We consider the curvaton scenario in the context of supersymmetry (SUSY) with gravity-mediated SUSY breaking. In the case of a large initial curvaton amplitude during inflation and a negative order H^2 correction to the mass squared term after inflation, the curvaton will be close to the minimum of its potential at the end of inflation. In this case the curvaton amplitude fluctuations will be damped due to oscillations around the effective minimum of the curvaton potential, requiring a large expansion rate during inflation in order to account for the observed energy density perturbations, in conflict with cosmic microwave background constraints. Here we introduce a new curvaton scenario, the phase-induced curvaton scenario, in which de Sitter fluctuations of the phase of a complex SUSY curvaton field induce an amplitude fluctuation which is unsuppressed even in the presence of a negative order H^2 correction and large initial curvaton amplitude. This scenario is closely related to the Affleck-Dine mechanism and a curvaton asymmetry is naturally generated in conjunction with the energy density perturbations. Cosmological energy density perturbations can be explained with an expansion rate H ~ 10^12 GeV during inflation.

description: Agri-environmental schemes are one of the main tools public administrations have to incentivise more environmentally friendly agricultural practices. However, their effectiveness and efficiency have been subject to criticism mainly due to the lack of provision guarantee for their environmental benefits and adverse selection of participants. In order to solve these issues output based payments and selection of participants via auctions have been put forward. This paper reports the results of a pilot experience carried out in Guipúzcoa to evaluate the acceptance of farmers of these alternatives to implement three agri-environmetal measures and the efficiency gains associated with their implementation. The results obtained show that all the environmental measures studied are accepted by farmers and that there are potential savings compared to the way in which agri-environmental measures are currently implemented.
title: Charge Collection in Silicon Imaging Sensors
Creators: name: Weatherill, Daniel Philip
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2016

description: The subject of this thesis is the analysis of instrumental effects caused by the interaction between collected signal charge and electric fields within precision CCD imaging sensors typically used for astronomy. These phenomena cause aberrations in the measured spatial distribution of subsequently collected signal, which may present a major error for upcoming astronomy projects which rely heavily on accurately determining shapes of compact sources. Examples are the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope and the Euclid space telescope. The size of dynamic collection effects may be subtly affected by the operating conditions and design parameters of the device. Dynamic charge collection effects differ in origin from many other errors introduced by imaging detectors in that they are attributable to changes in the confinement of charge carriers during the collection phase of operation, rather than the readout phase. The fact that the exact aberration implied by dynamic charge collection effects depends exactly on the incident light field’s spatial distribution also makes them comparatively difficult to correct for. A method of physically modelling charge collection within the detector using analytical solutions to Poisson’s equation is described, which is shown to qualitatively reproduce many features of measured dynamic charge collection effects. Since the model is derived from device physics, it differs in approach in a complementary way from previous efforts which are empirically based. Experimental charge collection measurements from two different CCDs both affected by dynamic collection effects are presented, and shown in large part to be consistent with the predictions from the theoretical model.

description: The rural development in Spain cannot be understood without taking into account the LEADER approach. For 23 years, this method has been a part of the policies promoted by the EU, implementing the activity of Local Action Groups (LAG) into rural sectors and becoming one of the most important tools for development. This paper focuses on analyzing the representation of LAGs through the composition of their governing bodies. Aside from highlighting the obvious regional and territorial differences found in these bodies, the new programming period grants us, until 2020, more time to improve in the inclusion of important groups, such as women’s and youth groups, as well as in encouraging openness to members of the productive sector, who contribute to revitalizing the work performed by each LAG.

description: The aim of the paper is to evaluate the economic impact of the invasive species Zea mays ssp. mexicana (teosinte) on the corn fields in Aragón. The main objective is to estimate the private and social costs associated with the species and to perform an economic evaluation of some control alternatives following the technical advices for control and eradication established by the regional government institutions. The analysis quantifies the losses generated by the presence of teosinte in relation to different infestation degrees and incorporates a classification of control measures with respect to their economic profitability. The results confirm that the control measures proposed by technical experts are adequate from the economic perspective and contribute with the evaluation of social costs of measures.

This note aims to summarize the historical context of water policy, as well as some aspects of the actual legal framework for water management and policy development, with emphasis on the integrated and participatory management instruments adopted in both countries. The analysis model is based on Brazilian legal system of water management, from which it will investigate how the Spanish system targeted the issues. In short, this comparative study notes that the Spanish water management model, possessing more dogmatic and doctrinal base, can be a good reference for overcoming the challenges of water management in Brazil.

description: About fifty years after the work that astronomer Tycho Brahe carried out while living on the island of Hven had made him world famous, King Christian IV of Denmark built the Trinity Buildings in Copenhagen. The Tower observatory was opened in 1642, and it housed the astronomers from the University of Copenhagen until 1861 when a new, modern observatory was built at {\O}stervold in the eastern part of the city. In 1996, all the University astronomers from the observatories at {\O}stervold and the small town of Brorfelde were relocated to the Rockefeller Buildings at {\O}sterbro, and the two observatories were closed. In this paper we focus on the library at the observatory in {\O}stervold, and its subsequent fate following the close-down of that observatory.

description: Our task in the UBC food systems project was to evaluate the effects of campus development on the ability to create and maintain a sustainable food system at UBC. Food security is a major issue around the world and universities such as UBC should be leading the way in developing innovative measures to create food sustainable communities. Because UBC is currently expanding we have the opportunity to model an urban agriculture strategy that can be extrapolated into the global community. The goal of this project is not to promote food self-sufficiency of UBC, rather it is to create awareness and education of the campus community on issues pertaining to food security. Through evaluations of the plans that guide development at UBC, Official Community Plan (OCP) and the Comprehensive Community Plan (CCP), we identified major barriers as well as opportunities that can hinder or enhance food sustainability on campus. We then made amendments to the OCP and the CCP. As a result, we developed a proposal for an urban agricultural strategy at UBC named The Edible Campus. This strategy involved six strategic actions which included a demonstration garden, designated garden areas, green space and open areas, food production on buildings, waste management systems and management considerations. To finalize our project, we made recommendations for next year’s AGSC 450 class to investigate further the viability of an urban agriculture strategy at UBC.

title: Value Relevance of Profit or Loss and Comprehensive Income in the Slovak Republic
Creators: name: Andrejcik, Dušan
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2017

description: This study investigates the relative and incremental value relevance of profit or loss (PL), other comprehensive income (OCI) and its components and comprehensive income (Cl) in the Slovak Republic. We extend prior empirical evidence on Cl value relevance by examining one of the recently transitioned markets of Central and Eastern Europe that has extensively adopted the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS). Previous empirical studies provide mixed results, which can be attributed partially to the use of as-if estimation technique to approximate CI/OCI figures. For that reason, this study adopts a comparative design in which we compare the value relevance between the companies following IFRS and companies following local accounting regulations on a sample of public Slovakian listed entities in the period from 2012 to 2014. We find evidence that PL is more value-relevant than Cl in both groups, and that OCI provides value-relevant information, in addition to those already disclosed in PL and book value, only in the group of companies following Slovakian accounting regulations. Therefore, the results of this study suggest that mandating all Slovakian public listed entities to report comprehensive income does not enhance the usefulness of financial statements.

description: We study motion of a point-like impurity in a Bose-Einstein condensate at T=0. By solving the Gross-Pitaevskii equation in a perturbative manner we calculate the induced mass of the impurity and the drag force on the impurity in 3D, 2D and 1D cases. The relationship between the induced mass and the normal mass of fluid is found and coincides with the result of the Bogoliubov theory. The drag force appears for supersonic motion of the impurity. In 1D the drag force is investigated also on the basis of the exact Lieb-Liniger theory, using the dynamic form factor, which has been evaluated by the Haldane method of the calculation of correlation functions. In this theory the force appears for an arbitrarily small velocity of the impurity. The possibility of measuring the form factor in existing experiments is noted.

title: The Plasma Proteome of Children Recovering From Severe Malarial Anaemia
Creators: name: Abah, Samuel Eneọjọ
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2016

description: The majority of malaria-associated deaths occur in children less than 5 years of age and severe malaria accounts for up to 90% of such deaths. We are interested in dissecting why some children develop either one of the severe malarial syndromes or the uncomplicated Malaria (UM). We studied a total of 1,622 plasma and 519 DNA samples from our pediatric Nigerian cohort. By monitoring and comparing the differences in the plasma proteome in the UM group to each of the severe syndromes at both onset and through convalescence we found that congenitally low plasma Haptoglobin (Hp), low/stable plasma level of sCD163, sub-optimal plasma Hemopexin (HPx) level and low plasma clusterin (CLU) levels could be put forward as predictors of acute/insidious onset of severe malarial anaemia (SMA) and Cerebral Malaria (CM). We show that low plasma CLU is a very specific marker of CM at acute onset and propose a mechanism through which high CLU levels can protect from CM. We also propose that circulatory HPx level is useful as both diagnostic and prognostic biomarkers of severe malaria as its level varies among the severe malaria forms at acute onset and also increases sensitively with response to treatment in all the malaria groups. We show that Hp phenotypes could be linked to the pathological differences that underlie the acute onset of UM, severe malaria and disease progression among subjects: Hp phenotypes seem to modulate response to malarial infection and might be responsible for contradictory reports on the pathophysiology of severe malaria. We also show for the first time that Hp gene sequence variants/deletions at sites in both the distal and proximal upstream region are significantly associated with protection from and susceptibility to malaria, whether or not they are associated with plasma Hp levels.

description: This review deals with the inconsistency of inner dark matter density profiles in dwarf galaxies, known as the cusp-core problem. Particularly, we aim to focus on gas-poor dwarf galaxies. One of the most promising solutions to this cold dark matter small scale issue is the stellar feedback but it seems to be only designed for gas-rich dwarfs. However, in the regime of classical dwarfs, this core mechanism becomes negligible. Therefore, it is required to find solutions without invoking these baryonic processes as dark matter cores tend to persist even for these dwarfs, which are rather dark matter-dominated. Here we have presented two categories of solutions. One consists of creating dark matter cores from cusps within cold dark matter by altering the dark matter potential via perturbers. The second category gathers solutions which depict the natural emergence of dark matter cores in alternative theories. Given the wide variety of solutions, it becomes necessary to identify which mechanism dominates in the central region of galaxies by finding observational signatures left by them in order to highlight the true nature of dark matter.

description: A new ionic-liquid supported aminocatalyst was synthesized by the peptide coupling of proline on a ring-dialkylated histidine salt serving as ionic support. The catalytic activity and enantioselectivity of the obtained dipeptide catalyst were evaluated in the enantioselective cross aldol reaction of substituted benzaldehyde derivatives with acetone, in organic solvent and in ionic liquids, and both were found to be significantly higher in ionic liquids than in organic solvents. The [bmim][OTf] – catalyst system could be recycled for up to five cycles without any loss in activity.

description: The artificial segmentation of an investment management process into a workflow with silos of offline human operators can restrict silos from collectively and adaptively pursuing a unified optimal investment goal. To meet the investor's objectives, an online algorithm can provide an explicit incremental approach that makes sequential updates as data arrives at the process level. This is in stark contrast to offline (or batch) processes that are focused on making component level decisions prior to process level integration. Here we present and report results for an integrated, and online framework for algorithmic portfolio management. This article provides a workflow that can in-turn be embedded into a process level learning framework. The workflow can be enhanced to refine signal generation and asset-class evolution and definitions. Our results confirm that we can use our framework in conjunction with resampling methods to outperform naive market capitalisation benchmarks while making clear the extent of back-test over-fitting. We consider such an online update framework to be a crucial step towards developing intelligent portfolio selection algorithms that integrate financial theory, investor views, and data analysis with process-level learning.

title: Information Reduction - All, Nothing or Somewhere In-Between? An Exploration of the Information Reduction Strategy in Practice Learning
Creators: name: Rowell, Nancy Ellen
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2016

description: Practice leads to performance gains in speed and accuracy. Investigations have indicated these may occur due to use of cognitive strategies. One such strategy, previously investigated with an Alphabet Verification task, is called Information Reduction (Haider and Frensch, 1996). It involves attending to and processing only information relevant to the task in hand. Information Reduction has been proposed to be consciously and abruptly adopted and applied consistently. However, it has been observed that not everyone makes use of this strategy. This could be due to the nature of the task, the conditions under which learning takes place or characteristics of the participants. Using new tasks developed for this study, plus post-testing questionnaires, further investigations were carried out. These confirmed Information Reduction is not a task-specific phenomenon, but demonstrated that the instructions and feedback given have considerable effects on whether irrelevant information in the stimuli is ignored. When instructed that a shortcut could improve performance, only one-third of participants could verbalise Information Reduction use, although another third adopted it, apparently without awareness. Using Information Reduction without awareness is at odds with Haider and Frensch’s hypothesis about the mechanism. However, experiments testing transfer to other stimuli where the same regularity occurs or with similar stimuli obeying a slightly different rule suggested that conscious knowledge may be required for transfer to be successful. One notable result from all experiments is that Information Reduction is often not used consistently. Whilst this may seem to be in line with the idea that it is consciously applied, it is not with other aspects of the proposed mechanism. Overall it does seem to be less robust than has been suggested and there seems to be some way to go before an adequate theory to explain Information Reduction can be developed.

description: Musculoskeletal disorder (MSD) is one of the major health problems in physical work especially in manual handling jobs. In several literatures, muscle fatigue is considered to be closely related to MSD, especially for muscle related disorders. In addition to many existing analysis techniques for muscle fatigue assessment and MSD risk analysis, in this paper, a new muscle fatigue model was proposed. The new proposed model reflects the influence of external load, workload history, and individual differences. This model is simple in mathematics and can be easily applied in realtime calculation, such as the application in realtime virtual work simulation and evaluation. The new model was mathematically validated with 24 existing static models by comparing the calculated METs, and qualitatively or quantitatively validated with 3 existing dynamic models. The proposed model shows high or moderate similarities in predicting the METs with all the 24 static models. Validation results with the three dynamic models were also promising. The main limitation of the model is that it still lacks experimental validation for more dynamic situations. Relevance to industry Muscle fatigue is one of the main reasons causing MSDs in industry, especially for physical work. Correct evaluation of muscle fatigue is necessary to determine work-rest regimens and reduce the risks of MSD.

description: Molecular dynamics simulations have been used to study a collective atomic transport phenomenon by repeated Ar$^+$ irradiations in the Ti/Pt interfacial system. The ion-induced injection of surface atoms to the bulk, the ejection of bulk atoms to the top layers together with surface erosion is strongly enhanced by interfacial mixing. This process leads to a dense interfacial material, and broadening of the interface region. The process scales with the relative difference of the atomic masses. We find that surface roughening and interfacial mixing is strongly coupled via an enhanced counterflow material transport normal to the surface which might be a novel surface damage mechanism. This cooperative phenomenon is active when the bilayer system is subjected to a high dose ion irradiation (multiple ion irradiations) and leads to surface cavity growth.

This can result in conflict because within the group the dynamics may lead to a competitive atmosphere for quality and sales. Within this context, the present study aims at examining the conflicting dynamics between the craftswomen of San miguel de Yahuarcocha (Ecuador) and their implications at the territorial level. We conclude that within the group of craftswomen there are antagonistic relationships that lead to personal conflicts.

 Type species. – Callipterus arundicolens Clarke, 1903, by original designation.
 Diagnosis. – All viviparae alatae. Head with poorly developed antennal tubercles; dorsum without any sutures; clypeus with an anteriorly directed nose-like projection with 2 hairs. Antenna 6-segmented, shorter or longer than body; processus terminalis sub-equal to the base of the segment. Rostrum hardly reaching beyond fore coxae, ultimate rostral segment very short, shorter than second hind tarsal segment, with or without accessory hairs. Abdominal tergites pale, with small wart-like paired spinal elevations, sometimes on scleroites; spinal and marginal hairs on abdominal tergites single, spinal hairs on tergite VII laterally displaced, tergite VIII with 2- 5 dorsal hairs. All dorsal hairs of body short and acute. Siphunculi short, truncate, without distinct apical flange, with or without a hair appended to the base. Cauda knobbed, with 10-16 hairs. Anal plate bilobed. Rudimentary gonapophyses two. First tarsal segments each with 5 or 6 ventral hairs and 2 dorsal hairs. Empodial hairs flattened. Wax plates minute or absent. Fore wings with media twice-branched, hind wings with both obliques.
Embryos with long capitate dorsal hairs; spinal and marginal hairs single, pleural hairs absent. Siphunculi appear ring like.
 Biology. – The members of this genus are pale yellow to pale green in life and infest leaves of bamboo (Arundinaria, Phyllostachys, Pleioblastus, Sasaella, Sasa spp.). Only alate viviparae are known, sexual forms not known. These species appear to lead anholocyclic life cycles throughout the year (Ghosh, 1990).
 Distribution. – East Asia (China, Japan, Korea, India), Europe, North America, and New Zealand.

description: We report on the production of a $^{41}$K-$^{87}$Rb dual-species Bose-Einstein condensate with tunable interspecies interaction and we study the mixture in the attractive regime, i.e. for negative values of the interspecies scattering length $a_{12}$. The binary condensate is prepared in the ground state and confined in a pure optical trap. We exploit Feshbach resonances for tuning the value of $a_{12}$. After compensating the gravitational sag between the two species with a magnetic field gradient, we drive the mixture into the attractive regime. We let the system to evolve both in free space and in an optical waveguide. In both geometries, for strong attractive interactions, we observe the formation of self-bound states, recognizable as quantum droplets. Our findings prove that robust, long-lived droplet states can be realized in attractive two-species mixtures, despite the two atomic components may experience different potentials.

description: We report the experimental observation of resonances in the early-time momentum diffusion rates for the atom-optical delta-kicked rotor. In this work a Bose-Einstein condensate provides a source of ultra-cold atoms with an ultra-narow initial momentum distribution, which is then subjected to periodic pulses (or "kicks") using an intense far-detuned optical standing wave. A quantum resonance occurs when the momentum eigenstates accumulate the same phase between kicks leading to ballistic energy growth. Conversely, an anti-resonance is observed when the phase accumulated from successive kicks cancels and the system returns to its initial state. Our experimental results are compared with theoretical predictions.

description: This research seeks to determinate if climate change is the main cause of the socio-economic crisis in Coto brus, Puntarenas, Costa Rica, since the negative effects in coffee crops in 2010 due to the tropical storm nicole and hurricane Thomas. An statistical analysis of meteorological stations data, a downscaling process and an Standardized Precipitation Index analysis was developed for the zone of interest with the purpose of determinate if there is the presence of climate change or climate variability in Coto brus. There is a normal behavior in the meteorological variables in the zone of interest. As a conclusion, climate change is not the main cause of the socio-economic crisis of Coto brus. We suggest the development of adaptation strategies for possible future extreme events and also the creation of development programs and top-down public policies due to increase the quality of life of the zone by reinforcing their principal economic activity: the agriculture of coffee crops.

description: The APEnet+ board delivers a point-to-point, low-latency, 3D torus network interface card. In this paper we describe the latest generation of APEnet NIC, APEnet v5, integrated in a PCIe Gen3 board based on a state-of-the-art, 28 nm Altera Stratix V FPGA. The NIC features a network architecture designed following the Remote DMA paradigm and tailored to tightly bind the computing power of modern GPUs to the communication fabric. For the APEnet v5 board we show characterizing figures as achieved bandwidth and BER obtained by exploiting new high performance ALTERA transceivers and PCIe Gen3 compliancy.

description: The prescription for introducing a gauge transformation into a quantum transition amplitude, nominally well known, contains an ambiguous feature. It is presumed by some authors that an appropriate transformation of the phase of a wave function will generate the associated gauge transformation. It· is shown that this is a necessary but not sufficient step. Examples from the literature are cited to show the consequences of the failure of this procedure. One must distinguish between true gauge transformations and unitary transformations within a fixed gauge.
