description: The Generalized Chaplygin Gas (GCG) model is characterized by the equation of state $P = -A ρ^{-α}$, where $A>0$ and $α< 1$. The model has been extensively studied due to its interesting properties and applicability in several contexts, from late-time acceleration to primordial inflation. Nonetheless we show that the inflationary slow-roll regime cannot be satisfied by most of the parameter space of the GCG model when General Relativity (GR) is considered. In particular, although the model has been applied to inflation with $0 < α< 1$, we show that for $-1 < α\le 1$ there is no expansion of the Universe but an accelerated contraction. For $α\le -5/3$, the second slow-roll parameter $η_H$ is larger than unity, so there is no sustained period of inflation. Only for $α$ very close to -1 the model produces enough $e$-folds, thus greatly reducing its parameter space. Moreover, we show that the model is ruled out by the Planck 2018 results. Finally, we extend our analysis to the Generalized Chaplygin-Jacobi Gas (GCJG) model. We find that the introduction of a new parameter does not change the previous results. We thus conclude that the violation of the slow-roll conditions is a generic feature of the GCG and GCJG models during inflation when GR is considered and that the models are ruled out by the Planck 2018 results.

description: We study difference inequality systems for the 3x+1 problem introduced by the first author in 1989. These systemes can be used to give lower bounds for the number of integers below x that contain 1 in their forward orbit under the 3x+1 map. Previous methods gave away some information in these inequalities. We give an improvement which apparantly extracts full information from the inequalities. By computer aided proof we show that at least x^{0.84} of the integers below x contain 1 in their forward orbit under the 3x+1 map.

description: Dirac-like Hamiltonians, linear in momentum $k$, describe the low-energy physics of a large set of novel materials, including graphene, topological insulators, and Weyl fermions. We show here that the inclusion of a minimal $k^2$ Wilson's mass correction improves the models and allows for systematic derivations of appropriate boundary conditions for the envelope functions on finite systems. Considering only Wilson's masses allowed by symmetry, we show that the $k^2$ corrections are equivalent to Berry-Mondragon's discontinuous boundary conditions. This allows for simple numerical implementations of regularized Dirac models on a lattice, while properly accounting for the desired boundary condition. We apply our results on graphene nanoribbons (zigzag and armchair), and on a PbSe monolayer (topological crystalline insulator). For graphene, we find generalized Brey-Fertig boundary conditions, which correctly describe the small gap seen on \textit{ab initio} data for the metallic armchair nanoribbon. On PbSe, we show how our approach can be used to find spin-orbital-coupled boundary conditions. Overall, our discussions are set on a generic model that can be easily generalized for any Dirac-like Hamiltonian.

description: Estimating greenhouse gases (GHGs) and other emissions (especially diesel particulates) is an increasingly important basis for regional policy analysis. According to the EPA (2010a), the transportation sector contributed 27.2% of total GHG emissions in 2008, and 50% of these were from truck operations. This research focuses on estimating GHGs and other emissions (e.g., PM) from freight movements on roads in California as well as the concurrent effects of various mitigation scenarios. The study demonstrates that interregional freight flow data, along with FAF data can be important data sources for emission models. The results are useful not only for estimating GHGs and other emissions based on estimated freight flows, but also for evaluating area-specific environmental impacts of policy alternatives. The analysis shows that emissions impacts vary by study area as well as by policy. A policy alternative that has a significant impact in a specific area may have a trivial impact in a broader region. Also, an emissions reduction in one area may be because of emissions increases in another area. Therefore, it is important to simulate possible emissions impacts by applying a spatially disaggregated model to help decision makers weigh alternatives. The study can also be applied for analyzing environmental justice when the emission results are disaggregated into small areas.

description: School bus safety is a community concern because parents expect their children to be transported to and from school safely. However, relatively few studies have been devoted to examining the factors contributing to school bus crashes. In this study, a logistic regression model is used to delineate the factors that contribute to school bus collisions from collisions involving other types of buses. As expected, we find significant differences in crash factors arising from differences in exposure and operating characteristics. Surprisingly, we also find that school bus drivers are more likely to commit driving violations or errors than non-school bus drivers.

description: The primary function of equipment managers is to replace the right equipment at the right time and at the lowest overall cost. In this paper, the opportunities and challenges associated with equipment replacement optimization (ERO) are discussed in detail. First, a comprehensive review of the state-of-the art and state-of-the practice literature for the ERO problem is conducted. Second, a dynamic programming (DP) based optimization solution methodology is presented to solve the ERO problem. The Bellman’s formulation for the ERO deterministic (DDP) and stochastic dynamic programming (SDP) problems are discussed in detail. Finally, comprehensive ERO numerical results and implications are given.

description: We study baryon pair production in two-photon collisions, gamma gamma -> B Bbar, within perturbative quantum chromodynamics, treating baryons as quark-diquark systems. We extend previous work within the same approach by treating constituent-mass effects systematically by means of an expansion in the small parameter (mass/photon energy). Our approach enables us to give a consistent description of the cross sections for all octet baryon channels. Adopting the model parameters from foregoing work, we are able to reproduce the most recent large-momentum-transfer data from LEP for the p pbar, Lambda Lambdabar, and Sigma^0 Sigma^0bar channels in a quite satisfactory way. We also briefly address the crossed process for the proton channel, gamma p -> gamma p.

description: We present CutLang, an analysis description language and runtime interpreter for high energy collider physics data analyses. An analysis description language is a declerative domain specific language that can express all elements of a data analysis in an easy and unambiguous way. A full-fledged human readable analysis description language, incorporating logical and mathematical expressions, would eliminate many programming difficulties and errors, consequently allowing the scientist to focus on the goal, but not on the tool. In this paper, we discuss the guiding principles and scope of the CutLang language, implementation of the CutLang runtime interpreter and the CutLang framework, and demonstrate an example of top pair reconstruction.

description: Magnetic edge states are responsible for various phenomena of magneto-transport. Their importance is due to the fact that, unlike the bulk of the eigenstates in a magnetic system, they carry electric current along the boundary of a confined domain. Edge states can exist both as interior (quantum dot) and exterior (anti-dot) states. In the present report we develop a consistent and practical spectral theory for the edge states encountered in magnetic billiards. It provides an objective definition for the notion of edge states, is applicable for interior and exterior problems, facilitates efficient quantization schemes, and forms a convenient starting point for both the semiclassical description and the statistical analysis. After elaborating these topics we use the semiclassical spectral theory to uncover nontrivial spectral correlations between the interior and the exterior edge states. We show that they are the quantum manifestation of a classical duality between the trajectories in an interior and an exterior magnetic billiard.

description: While the trucking industry across North America is now fully de-regulated, truck markets and movements are diverse enough that the level of competition in truck transportation almost certainly varies across space, commodities, and even time. Most studies of market power in transportation do not measure or account for spatial or temporal variation in levels of competition, and in addition, it is not clear to what degree such variation affects shippers. For example, there is anecdotal evidence that trucking of certain commodities in Western Canada is characterized by considerable market power that only manifests at certain times of the year. In this light, we examine both spatial aspects as well as the dynamics of rates in the medium-to-long-haul grain trucking sector in West-Central Alberta and East-Central Saskatchewan on the Canadian prairies. We attempt to characterize market power over both space and time within this regional trucking sector. This is done using a unique and detailed data set of trucking rates charged to shippers (farmers) for grain transportation to a common destination (Lloydminster, AB) from the numerous dispersed farms in the region. To frame the unique spatial aspects of this issue, we begin by using geographic information systems (GIS) software to build freight rate contours for this trucking market through space. A set of suppositions regarding the possible shape of these contours as they relate to transportation market structure is also developed. Subsequently, a subset of the data is used to conduct an econometric estimation of short-run freight rate dynamics. These latter estimates reveal evidence of less than competitive transportation markets through time and space. Ultimately, we find that market power in trucking is not persistent within this market, but we do observe uncompetitive pricing behavior at certain times of the year. Given that trucking is deregulated, the latter finding is somewhat unexpected. We suspect that this set of conditions very likely affects trucking rates across more markets and regions than the one examined here.

Its colour-magnitude diagram shows red giant branch stars with the tip at I = 22.32 mag, and the presence of some blue stars. The derived true distance modulus, 26.35 \+- 0.14 mag, corresponds to linear distances of KKR25 from the Milky Way and from the Local Group centroid of 1.86 and 1.79 Mpc, respectively. The absolute magnitude of the galaxy, M_V = -10.48, its linear diameter (0.54 Kpc) and central surface brightness (24.0 +- 0.2 mag\arcsec^2) are typical of other dIrr/dSphs in the Local Group. Being situated just beyond the radius of the zero-velocity surface of the Local Group, KKR25 moves away from the LG centroid at a velocity of V_{LG} = + 72 km/s.

description: Freight can be efficiently transported between most locations in the U.S. using large trucks. Involvement of large trucks in crashes can cause much damage and serious injuries, due to their large sizes and heavy weights. The purpose of this study was to identify the relationships between large truck crashes and traffic and geometric characteristics on limited access highways. Crash and traffic and geometric-related data for Kansas were utilized to develop a Poisson regression model and a negative binomial regression model for understanding the relationships. Based on modelfitting statistics, the negative binomial model was found to be the better model, which was used to identify the important characteristics. By addressing identified factors, safety could be promoted through introduction of appropriate engineering improvements.

description: We study charmonium correlators at finite temperature in quenched anisotropic lattice QCD. The smearing technique is applied to enhance the low energy part of the correlator. We use two analysis procedures: the maximum entropy method for extraction of the spectral function without assuming specific form, as an estimate of the shape of spectral function, and the $χ^2$ fit assuming typical forms as quantitative evaluation of the parameters associated to the forms. We find that at $T\simeq 0.9T_c$ the ground state peak has almost the same mass as at T=0 and almost vanishing width. At $T\simeq 1.1T_c$, our result suggests that the correlator still has nontrivial peak structure at almost the same position as below $T_c$ with finite width.

description: In recent years there have been few railroad demand studies. Also, no study has investigated the possibility of regional differences in railroad demand. The objective of the paper is to estimate railroad demand functions for wheat, corn, sorghum, and soybeans for the United States as well as the east and west regions. A two-region spatial equilibrium model is employed to specify the empirical model in which railroad tons originated is the dependent variable. The explanatory variables include railroad price per ton, crop production, and barge price per ton. The theoretically expected sign is negative for rail price. Alternatively, the expected sign is positive for crop production and barge rate. Results include estimates of railroad own-price elasticities and cross price elasticities relative to barge transport. The estimates also reveal regional differences in railroad grain demand.

description: We model a microchannel cooling system and consider the optimization of its shape by means of shape calculus. A three-dimensional model covering all relevant physical effects and three reduced models are introduced. The latter are derived via a homogenization of the geometry in 3D and a transformation of the three-dimensional models to two dimensions. A shape optimization problem based on the tracking of heat absorption by the cooler and the uniform distribution of the flow through the microchannels is formulated and adapted to all models. We present the corresponding shape derivatives and adjoint systems, which we derived with a material derivative free adjoint approach. To demonstrate the feasibility of the reduced models, the optimization problems are solved numerically with a gradient descent method. A comparison of the results shows that the reduced models perform similarly to the original one while using significantly less computational resources.

description: The present study was carried out to investigate the analgesic, anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and antifungal properties of ethanol leave extract of Mangifera indica. For evaluation of analgesic and anti-inflammatory properties, acetic acid induced writhing response model and carrageenan induced paw edema model were used in Swiss albino mice and Wistar albino rats, respectively. In both cases, leaves extract were administered and the obtained effects were compared with commercially available analgesic and anti-inflammatory drug, Diclofenac Sodium. In analgesic bioassay, oral administration of the ethanol leaves extract significantly (P<0.01) reduced the writhing response. The degree of inhibition of leaves extract was 55.8% compared to the effect of standard analgesic drug, Diclofenac Sodium (75.28%). On the other hand, though leaves extract reduce paw edema but they did not show any significant effect. The antibacterial and antifungal activity of leaves extract also carried out by disc diffusion technique and poisoned food technique. In antibacterial experiment, leaves extract showed 7.0 mm to 11.5 mm in diameter of zone of inhibition against six Gram positive bacteria (such as Staphylococcus aureus, Streptococcus agalactiae, Bacillus cereus, Bacillus megaterium, Bacillus subtilis and Lactobacillus vulgaricus) and two Gram negative bacteria (such as Shigella flexneri and Shigella sonei ). But Salmonella typhi and Proteus sp had negative activity on leaves extract. The leaves extract of Mangifera indica showed antifungal activity against three fungal species (such as Aspergillus ustus, Aspergillus niger and Aspergillus ochraceus).

description: The research was undertaken to know the effects of different level of sugar and mixed culture on qualitative characteristics of dahi. Milk samples were collected and boiled to reduce the 20% of their volume and divided into four portions after boiling. Sugar was added at 8, 10, 12 and 14% of of milk and boiled again for a while. After boiling milk samples were cooled down to 370 C and 1, 2, 3 and 4% mixed culture was added in each of the four level sugar added milk. The combination of 4 × 4 = 16 samples were prepared and were incubated at 370 C in an incubator until coagulation. From the organoleptic evaluation it was found that dahi samples prepared by adding 10 and 12% sugar level obtained more score then that of the 8 and 14% sugar added dahi samples. Culture level and sugar level both had influence on coagulation time. Coagulation time was less when low sugar and high level of culture was used, on the other hand coagulation time was more when high level sugar and low level culture was used. Chemical analysis showed that total solids and solids-not-fat, protein, carbohydrates content of dahi samples were significantly increased due to the increased level of sugar and culture. But on other parameters effects of sugar and culture were not appreciable. It was concluded that sugar level and culture level both can changes the quality of dahi samples. A combination of 10% sugar with 2% culture and 12% sugar with 3% culture was found appropriate for dahi making.

description: Ten layer farms (eight from Manikganj and two from Gazipur) were selected to evaluate the effect of the different environmental condition on layer performance. Temperature (°C) and relative humidity (%) were recorded and concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2, ppm) and ammonia (NH3, ppm) were determined. Productive performance of flock was evaluated by measuring egg production, feed consumption, egg weight and egg shell thickness. The tolerable temperature for the layer was 15-27°C. High temperature (above 27°C) affects feed consumption, egg weight and egg shell thickness while relative humidity has less impact on egg production, egg weight and feed consumption. Feed consumption and egg weight were decreased markedly when CO2 and NH3 concentration were more than 3000 and 37 ppm, but not on egg shell thickness. Postmortem examination indicated that 51, 24, 11, 9 and 5% birds were died due to bacterial, viral, non-infectious, protozoal and fungal infection respectively. Improper environments reduced the chickens’ defenses, making them more vulnerable to diseases.
Diffractive η_c and η_b productions by neutrinos via neutral currents

description: We report a first theoretical study for neutrino-induced diffractive productions of heavy pseudoscalar mesons, η_c and η_b, off a nucleon. Based on factorization formalism for exclusive processes, we evaluate the forward diffractive production cross section in perturbative QCD in terms of the light-cone Q\bar{Q} wave functions (WFs) of η_{c,b} mesons and the gluon distribution of the nucleon. The light-cone WFs of the η_c (η_b) meson are constructed to satisfy the spin symmetry relations with those of the J/ψ(Υ) meson. The diffractive η_c production is governed by the axial-vector coupling of the longitudinally polarized Z boson to Q\bar{Q} pair, and the resulting η_c production rate is larger than the J/ψone by one order of magnitude. We also discuss the production of bottomonium η_b, which shows up for higher beam energy.

Evidences of low-diffusion bubbles around Galactic pulsars

description: Recently, a few-degrees extended $γ$-ray halo in the direction of Geminga pulsar has been detected by HAWC, Milagro and Fermi-LAT. These observations can be interpreted with positrons ($e^+$) and electrons ($e^-$) accelerated by Geminga pulsar wind nebula (PWN), released in a Galactic environment with a low diffusion coefficient ($D_0$), and inverse Compton scattering (ICS) with the interstellar radiation fields. We inspect here how the morphology of the ICS $γ$-ray flux depends on the energy, the pulsar age and distance, and the strength and extension of the low-diffusion bubble. In particular we show that $γ$-ray experiments with a peak of sensitivity at TeV energies are the most promising ones to detect ICS halos. We perform a study of the sensitivity of HAWC, HESS and the future CTA experiment finding that, with efficiencies of the order of a few %, the first two experiments should have already detected a few tens of ICS halos while the latter will increase the number of detections by a factor of 4. We then consider a sample of sources associated to PWNe and detected in the HESS Galactic plane survey and in the second HAWC catalog. We use the information available in these catalogs for the $γ$-ray spatial morphology and flux of these sources to inspect the value of $D_0$ around them and the $e^{\pm}$ injection spectrum. All sources are detected as extended with a $γ$-ray emission extended about $15-80$ pc. Assuming that most of the $e^{\pm}$ accelerated by these sources have been released in the interstellar medium, the diffusion coefficient is $2-30 \cdot 10^{26}$ cm$^2$/s at 1 TeV, i.e. two orders of magnitude smaller than the value considered to be the average in the Galaxy. These observations imply that Galactic PWNe have low-diffusion bubbles with a size of at least 80 pc.

description: Fair trade and vertical integration represent two popular approaches for enhancing the incomes of organized farmers in a volatile coffee market as compared to the uncertain plight of independent, non-affiliated growers. A mixed method approach, utilizing informal interviews and a household survey in Chiapas, Mexico, analyzed three coffee trading regimes: independent, non-affiliated farmers, and growers in cooperatives pursuing a fair trade or vertical integration strategy. Survey and econometric results indicate that concentration on specialty coffee production with a portfolio of foreign contracts is economically preferable to a vertically integrated cooperative, which in turn produces more favorable coffee prices for smallholders than the non-affiliated conventional, coyote-dominated trading system.

description: We consider a scalar field $ϕ$ whose coupling to the kinetic term of a non-abelian gauge field is set at an UV scale $M$. Then the confinement of the gauge sector will induce a $ϕ$-dependent vacuum energy which generates a dimensionful potential for the scalar. It provides a good example of dynamical generation of a new physics scale below $M$ through the vacuum expectation value $\langle ϕ\rangle$. This mechanism may shed light on the origin of dark matter, or spontaneous symmetry breaking applicable to the electroweak symmetry.

Galaxy Light Concentration. I. Index stability and the connection with galaxy structure, dynamics, and supermassive black holes

description: We explore the stability of different galaxy light concentration indices as a function of the outermost observed galaxy radius. With a series of analytical light-profile models, we show mathematically how varying the radial extent to which one measures a galaxy's light can strongly affect the derived galaxy concentration. The "mean concentration index", often used for parameterizing high-redshift galaxies, is shown to be horribly unstable, even when modeling one-component systems such as elliptical, dwarf elliptical and pure exponential disk galaxies. The C_31 concentration index performs considerably better but is also heavily dependent on the radial extent, and hence exposure depth, of any given galaxy. We show that the recently defined central concentration index is remarkably stable against changes to the outer radius, providing a meaningful and reliable estimate of galaxy concentration. The index n from the r^(1/n) models is shown to be monotonically related with the central concentration of light, giving the index n a second and perhaps more tangible meaning. With a sample of elliptical and dwarf elliptical galaxies, we present correlations between the central light concentration and the global parameters: luminosity (Pearson's r = -0.82), effective radius (r = 0.67), central surface brightness (r = -0.88), and velocity dispersion (r = 0.80). The more massive elliptical galaxies are shown to be more centrally concentrated. We speculate that the physical mechanism behind the recently observed correlation between the central velocity dispersion (mass) of a galaxy and the mass of its central supermassive black hole may be connected with the central galaxy concentration. That is, we hypothesize that it may not simply be the amount of mass in a galaxy but rather how that mass is distributed that controls the mass of the central black hole.

description: Experiments with pedestrians revealed that the geometry of the domain, as well as the incentive of pedestrians to reach a target as fast as possible have a strong influence on the overall dynamics. In this paper, we propose and validate different mathematical models at the micro- and macroscopic levels to study the influence of both effects. We calibrate the models with experimental data and compare the results at the micro -- as well as macroscopic levels. Our numerical simulations reproduce qualitative experimental features on both levels, and indicate how geometry and motivation level influence the observed pedestrian density. Furthermore, we discuss the dynamics of solutions for different modeling approaches and comment on the analysis of the respective equations.
