description: Does multiple borrowing lead micro-borrowers into over-indebtednes? Do over-indebted micro-borrowers take loans to refinance existing loans that are ultimately unpayable and get trapped in a vicious circle of debt? Using a longitudinal household survey data, this study addresses such questions by examining the dynamic interdependency between over-indebtedness and multiple borrowing in the context of micro-borrowers in Thailand and Vietnam. Specifically, the trues state dependence and cross-state dependence effects of over-indebtedness and multiple borrowing are tested using the dynamic random effect bivariate probit model while controlling for observed and unobserved household heterogeneity. Results suggest that taking multiple borrowing simultaneously does positively influence household's risk of becoming over-indebted in Thailand, while in Vietnam it has no significant influence on household's risk of over-indebtedness. Although households reported of taking multiple loans to repay old debts, the empirical results do not support the premises that over-indebtedness reinforces households to refinance ultimately unpayable debts and trap households into a perpetual debt cycle.

description: Hybrid photonic-plasmonic nanostructures allow one to engineer coupling of quantum emitters and cavity modes accounting for the direct coherent and environment mediated dissipative pathways. Using generalized plasmonic Dicke model, we explore the non-equilibrium phase diagram with respect to these interactions. The analysis shows that their interplay results in the extension of the superradiant and regular lasing states to the dissipative coupling regime and an emergent lasing phase without population inversion having boundary with the superradiant and normal states. Calculated photon emission spectra are demonstrated to carry distinct signatures of these phases.

Supermarkets in Malyasia's Food Supply Chain: Influence on Traditional Supply Chain and Implications for Contract Farmers
Creators: name: Chin, Denise

Subjects: Food Consumption/Nutrition/Food Safety

description: Urbanization, growing incomes and changing diets have facilitated the supermarket revolution in Malaysia. Contract farming has been used as a tool to incorporate farmers into the modern supermarket supply chain, mediated by Malaysia’s Federal Agricultural Marketing Authority (FAMA). This study examines the influence of supermarkets on Malaysia’s traditional food supply chain, and the emergence of the supermarket-farmer relationship with smallholder farmers through contract farming, as a result of the new supply chain. Based on an extensive literature review and interviews with FAMA and supermarket representatives, this study finds that the supermarket dominance is present but the relationship between supermarkets and farmers is distant and indirect. While FAMA’s contract farming is a useful effort to increase farmer involvement in the supermarket supply chain, there has been little participation from supermarkets due to their efficient network of suppliers that can adhere to their high quantity and quality demands better than small farmers can.
title: ‘The scene of our constant negotiation’: tracing the development of Kathleen Jamie’s ecopoetic sensibility
Creators: name: Rae, Rebecca
Publisher: name: University of Glasgow
Year: 2021
Subjects: subject: Kathleen Jamie, ecopoetics, ecocriticism, Scottish literature, nature writing, ecological mesh.

description: This thesis traces the development of an ecopoetic sensibility in Kathleen Jamie’s works from The Golden Peak: Travels in North Pakistan (1992) to Surfacing (2019). Close readings of key poems and essays will be carried out in order to examine the continuities and developments that form this sensibility, showing that the overtly ecological themes of Jamie’s later work grow out of and are informed by her earlier work, and that the socio-political issues (primarily regarding gender and nationality) that are central in the earlier work are still present in the later work and form an important part of her ecopoetic sensibility, departing from a critical tendency to separate Jamie’s oeuvre into discrete stages. Attention will be paid throughout to the ways in which Jamie uses language to mediate with the non-human, with a particular focus on her ever-evolving use of Scots in this process. This thesis will draw upon contemporary discourses of ecopoetics and ecocriticism as well as the writings of twentieth-century philosopher Martin Heidegger which have influenced these fields. Timothy Morton’s theory of the ecological mesh will emerge as a particularly useful framework through which to understand Jamie’s work, with its prioritisation of points both of interconnection and difference between the human and the non-human. Jamie has been quoted as saying, ‘People sometimes say writing is about “expressing oneself”, which is ridiculous. It is the scene of our constant negotiation.’ This thesis seeks to prioritise the many negotiations Jamie undertakes, and her commitment to reengaging with these negotiations, over any kind of rigid conclusions or endpoints. This is reflected in its title, which identifies a fluid, shifting ecopoetic ‘sensibility’ in Jamie’s output, rather than a fixed methodology. The aim of this work is to demonstrate that a reading of Jamie’s work that prioritises interconnection, negotiation, tension, and open-endedness, as her writing does, is more fruitful than readings that attempt to impose fixed arguments upon it.

description: Higgs mode in superconducting materials describes slowly-decaying oscillations of the order parameter amplitude. We demonstrate that in magnetic superconductors with built-in spin-splitting field Higgs mode is strongly coupled to the spin degrees of freedom allowing for the generation of time-dependent spin currents. Converting such spin currents to electric signals by spin-filtering elements provides a tool for the second-harmonic generation and the electrical detection of the Higgs mode generated by the external irradiation. The non-adiabatic spin torques generated by these spin currents allow for the magnetic detection of the Higgs mode by measuring the precession of magnetic moment in the adjacent ferromagnet. We discuss also the reciprocal effect which is the generation of the Higgs mode by the magnetic precession. Coupling the collective modes in superconductors to light and magnetic dynamics opens the new direction of superconducting optospintronics.

title: Monitoring the Variable Stellar Universe
Creators: name: Morrell, Meredith Vivian
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2021

description: Monitoring the Variable Stellar Universe is a demonstration of the use of a small aperture, autonomous telescope as a tool to follow up transient variable stars. I used the Open University robotic telescope PIRATE, a relatively low cost facility built with off-the-shelf components, located in Tenerife, to observe targets selected from the Gaia Science Alerts stream which uses Gaia space observatory observations to identify potential transient objects. A total of 45,000 images were collected by me for over 2,700 hours of exposure time. A subset of 22,000 of those observations are discussed here. To match the pace of data acquisition of the automated telescope, I used Python to construct both a data reduction pipeline, and a data analysis pipeline which uses ensemble photometry and string length minimisation to generate photometric light curves. I compared the light curves generated by my data analysis pipeline to the those generated using the Cambridge Photometry Calibration Server, which produced similar results. The largest single data set for a target was Gaia16aye, a binary microlensing event which began in July 2016, and peaked five times over the next 18 months. The data I collect was part of a collaborative effort by over 100 observatories to follow up and model the system. I used the PIRATE data to investigate the colour index variation over time, and found that the event was achromatic as expected for a microlensing event. In addition to Gaia16aye, 77 other targets were observed during the main acquisition period between May 2017 and January 2019, including microlensing events, supernovae, cataclysmic variables, active galactic nuclei and several targets with unknown classification. The light curves generated for these targets are also discussed here. PIRATE proved to be an effective example of a small, autonomous telescope collecting a large quantity of data for a relatively small investment of staff time and financial resource. The Gaia Science Alerts stream used in conjunction with PIRATE proved to be a slight mismatch, with many alerts being too faint for PIRATE to follow. A larger telescope would be preferable to exclusively follow the Gaia alerts stream, and regular data quality monitoring through daily light curve generation would make PIRATE target selection for longer term follow up better. But PIRATE as it is now is very capable of transient follow up and would be used more effectively by branching out to other alert streams such as ASAS-SN, which is more closely matched to current PIRATE setup in terms of observing magnitude.

description: We present a novel view of the standard model of tunneling two level systems (TLS) to explain the puzzling universal value of a quantity, $C\sim 3\times 10^{-4}$, that characterizes phonon scattering in glasses below 1 K as reflected in thermal conductivity, ultrasonic attenuation, internal friction, and the change in sound velocity. Physical considerations lead to a broad distribution of phonon-TLS couplings that (1) exponentially renormalize tunneling matrix elements, and (2) reduce the TLS density of states through TLS-TLS interactions. We find good agreement between theory and experiment for a variety of individual glasses.

description: Rural wages in developing countries not only directly affect the welfare of many of the (very) poor, but they also affect the welfare of others through their impact on costs of food production and hence food prices. Since manufacturing in low income countries often recruits labour from the countryside, rural wages set the minimum level of factory wages 3 necessary to attract labour, and hence costs of production and thereby the growth of manufacturing. Rural wages in much of Asia seem to have been rising notably over the last 25 years or longer, with signs in some countries of accelerating increases since the mid-2000s. This study compiles the evidence for this; then examines the influence of potential determinants, including changes in agricultural labour productivity, manufacturing, and rural working population, on rural wages. It concludes by discussing the possible implications of the results for rural poverty, food prices and the location of manufacturing
Reallocation of Price Risk among Cooperative Members

description: The purpose of this paper is to explore the theoretical possibility of reallocation of price risk among members of processing cooperatives in the Danish hog and dairy sectors. Based on the observation that no effective price risk management institutions exist for Danish hog and dairy farmers, possible explanations for this are discussed and the possibility of cooperatives to reallocate risk among members is analyzed. Use of futures to hedge individual farmer price risk is absent, which may be due to prohibitively high basis risk. Farmers are exposed to the cooperative price. Endowing members with proportional forward contracts and organizing the exchange of these contracts via a double auction mechanism will reallocate risk, realizing gains depending on member heterogeneity and transaction costs. Most research on risk transfer focuses on vertical reallocations of risk in the value chain, whereas this paper explores the possibility of horizontal risk transfer.

description: Small-scale farmers in developing countries are undersupplied with capital. Although microfinance institutions have become well established in developing countries, they have not significantly ex-tended their services to farmers. It is generally believed that this is partly due to the riskiness of lending to farmers. This paper combines original data from a Madagascan microfinance institution with weather data to estimate the effect of rainfall on the repayment performance of loans granted to farmers. Results estimated by linear probability models and a sequential logit model show that excessive rain in the harvest period increases the credit risk of loans granted to farmers

description: We have used a superconducting single-electron transistor as a DC-electrometer that is strongly coupled to the metal island of another transistor. With this set-up, it is possible to directly measure the charge distribution on this island. The strong capacitive coupling was achieved by a multilayer fabrication technique that allowed us to make the coupling capacitance bigger than the junction capacitances. Simulations of this system were done using orthodox theory of single-electron tunnelling and showed excellent agreement with the measurements.

A discussion of the frequency and statistical properties of the various types of inner structures has already been published. Here, we present the data for the individual galaxies and measurements of their bars and inner structures. We set out the methods we use to find and measure these structures, and how we discriminate between them. In particular, we discuss some of the deficiencies of ellipse fitting of the isophotes, which by itself cannot always distinguish between bars, rings, spirals, and dust, and which can produce erroneous measurements of bar sizes and orientations.

description: This paper aims to examine the dynamics of land transactions, machine investments and the demand for machine services using farm panel data from China. Recently, China’s agriculture has experienced a large expansion of machine rentals and machine services provided by specialized agents, which has contributed to mechanization of agricultural production. The empirical results show that an increase in non-agricultural wage rates leads to expansion of self-cultivated land size. A rise in the proportion of non-agricultural income or the migration rate also increases the size of self-cultivated land. Interestingly, relatively educated farm households, however, decrease the size of self-cultivated land, which suggests that relatively less educated farmers tend to specialize in farming. The demand for machine services has also increased if agricultural wage and migration rate increased over time, especially among relatively large farms. The results on crop income also support complementarities between rented-in land and machine services (demanded), which implies that scale economies are arising in Chinese agriculture with mechanization and active land rental markets.

description: This paper presents a structural equation model of entrepreneurial intentions as influenced by self-efficacy and perceived feasibility. In this paper self-efficacy refers to a kind of subjective perception and belief that the farmers complete the entrepreneurial activities on the basis of their capacity defined as entrepreneurial self-efficacy, which measured by five dimensions including resource acquisition, opportunity recognition, interpersonal relations, risk management, innovation management. The main findings are that most farmers appear to have a remarkable degree of entrepreneurial intentions; besides, self-efficacy has a significant and positive impact on farm households’ entrepreneurial intentions, and the effect is 0.669; furthermore, perceived feasibility of farmers play a significant role on entrepreneurial intentions; finally, the perceived feasibility of farmers has a partial mediating effect between entrepreneurial self-efficacy and the entrepreneurial intentions.

description: Out-of time-ordered correlators (OTOC) have recently attracted significant attention from the physics of many-body systems, to quantum black-holes, with an exponential growth of the OTOC indicating quantum chaos. Here we consider OTOC in the context of coined discrete quantum walks, a very well studied model of quantization of classical random walks with applications to quantum algorithms. Three separate cases of operators, variously localized in the coin and walker spaces, are discussed in this context and it is found that the approximated behavior of the OTOCs is well described by simple algebraic functions in all these three cases with different time scale of growth. The quadratic increase of OTOC signals the absence of quantum chaos in these simplest forms of quantum walks.

description: This is one of the first empirical studies to estimate the technical efficiency of farmers’ flue-cured tobacco production, and explore the influencing factor of technical inefficiency on the perspective of within effects and between effects, aiming to provide a basic evaluation of farmers’ flue-cured tobacco production, and promote producers optimize their production. Results showed that the average technical efficiency level of flue-cured tobacco farmers was 0.7685; the scale elasticity was 2.67. Our study also revealed that the variation of farm household factors contributed 80.07% to technical inefficiency, and the other could be attributed to the variation of regional factors. Technical inefficiency of flue-cured tobacco production was significantly relative to producers’ education, planting scales, and planting years. In addition, regional disaster increased the possibility of technical inefficiency, while subsidies from flue-cured tobacco companies and government were to benefit reducing the technical inefficiency.

description: Three-dimensional complete photonic bandgap materials or photonic crystals block light propagation in all directions. The rod-connected diamond structure exhibits the largest photonic bandgap known to date and supports a complete bandgap for the lowest refractive index contrast ratio down to $n_{high}/n_{low} \sim 1.9$. We confirm this threshold by measuring a complete photonic bandgap in the infrared region in Sn--S--O $(n\sim1.9)$ and Ge--Sb--S--O $(n\sim2)$ inverse rod-connected diamond structures. The structures were fabricated using a low-temperature chemical vapor deposition process via a single-inversion technique. This provides a reliable fabrication technique of complete photonic bandgap materials and expands the library of backfilling materials, leading to a wide range of future photonic applications.

description: The paper is based on a survey we have designed to document the feeding practices in China’s hog industry. We estimate the live weight FCR to be 2.99, in which commercialized farms (>500 head/year) are the most efficient with FCR of 2.73, followed by specialized farms (50-499 head/year) of 2.90, and the main inefficiency in feeding comes from backyard (<10 head/year) and small household farms (10-49 head/year), with FCRs to be 3.03 and 3.99.The FCRs and the farm size have a clear inverse relationship, but the correlation between profit and farm size is not significant, suggesting further structural change toward larger operations will be slow. In addition, managerial variables have significant impacts on FCRs: participating training in disease control and using compound feed in the grower/finisher phase can lower the FCR significantly.

description: A quantum statistical theory of spin-dependent tunneling through asymmetric magnetic double barrier junctions is presented which describes $both$ ballistic and diffuse tunneling by a single analytical expression. It is evidenced that the key parameter for the transition between these two tunneling regimes is the electron scattering. For these junctions a strong asymmetric behaviour in the I-V characteristics and the tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) is predicted which can be controlled by an applied magnetic field. This phenomenon relates to the quantum well states in the middle metallic layer. The corresponding resonances in the current and the TMR are drastically phase shifted under positive and negative voltage.

description: Many of the experiences of recent technological change, whether brought about by a process of explicit planning or by default have not contributed to improving the welfare of the poor who live in rural areas. This paper seeks to understand soma of the processes behind recent changes in agricultural and rural technology. It starts by looking at five different levels of rural technology decision making and discusses how these levels are interrelated. Case studies from high population density areas of Asia are used to illustrate some of the reasons for looking at social structures and reward systems at different levels of decision making. Suggestions in the concluding section include the need for rural technology case study research, the use of a rural technology checklist, and the strengthening of national, regional and decentralized research and production systems and a greater emphasis on collaborative work between disciplines when addressing problems of rural poverty.

description: The present study investigated into the relative profitability and problems of Deep Tube-wells, Shallow Tube-wells and Hand Tube-wells with respect to HYV of boro. It was found that from both private and social point of views, DTW was the most profitable and then came STW and HTW in order, However, when the opportunity cost of labour for operating HTW was considered as zero, the social benefit accrued to the use of HTW was found to be the highest. When full operating cost of labour for HTW was considered, the net return to HTW was found to be negative. The HTW projects were dominated by small/marginal farmers; the STWs were dominated by rich farmers; whereas, the DTWs were used by almost all the categories of farmers: large, medium, and small, Sensitive factors such as yield, price and acreage coverage were tested against the findings. It was observed that acceptability of the project to a cost-benefit ratio of one or I. R. R of 15% would not change until there was a drastic change in those factors. The study identified certain basic problems of the irrigation facilities and came to the conclusion that for the optimal use of the facilities, these problems needed urgent solution.

description: We investigate the slicing dependence of the relationship between conserved quantities in the (A)dS/CFT correspondence. Specifically, we show that the Casimir energy depends upon the topology and geometry of spacetime foliations of the bulk near the conformal boundary. We point out that the determination of the brane location in brane-world scenarios exhibits a similar slicing dependence, and we comment on this in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence conjecture.

description: The accurate measurement of plasma potentials at high pressure is investigated with the emissive probe. The emissive probe I-V characteristic of argon plasma obtained at 100 Pa is interpreted in detail, showing two inflection points in the I-V trace. The accurate plasma potentials at high pressure can be determined from the first inflection point potentials (the higher potential) by the improved inflection point method of the emissive probe, while the second inflection point is a result of the additional ionizing phenomenon caused by the collision between the emitted electrons and the neutral argon atoms. Besides, the accuracy of the plasma potential measurement at high pressure is verified to be 0.3 V by the measurement of space potential distribution between two parallel plates in neutral gas at 100 Pa. The accurate measurement of space potentials in high pressure plasma and neutral gas indicates that the improved inflection point method of the emissive probe is promising in the study of collisional sheath structures and the electrostatic probe diagnostic of high pressure plasmas.

description: A projection model has been formulated to estimate the annual intake of educated jobseekers in the Bangladesh labour market during 1976-80. Sectoral employments in 1974 have been estimated and the sectoral demands for the years 1976 to 1980 have been estimated by projection method. On the basis of the known occupational pattern of the educated manpower in the labour market, the sectoral demands for educated manpower have been estimated which have been used to estimate the annual demands for educated manpower during 1975-80. The excesses of annual demands &ring 1976-80 over the preceding years have been considered to be the additional annual demands for educated manpower during 1976-80. The differences between supply of and demand for educated jobseekers during 1976-80 have been estimated and presented as the educated unemployment in the labour market during those years.

Urteile im Rahmen der Umweltverträglichkeitsprüfung verschärft worden. Das BVwG (Bundesverwaltungsgericht)
hat am 2. Februar 2017 den Antrag der Flughafen Wien AG für die Errichtung und den Betrieb einer
dritten Startpiste abgewiesen. In seiner Entscheidung gegen die Baugenehmigung hat das BVwG insbesondere
die Kriterien „Flächenverbrauch“ und das Treibhausgas „CO2“ als relevante Entscheidungsgrundlagen
genannt. Der VfGH hat dagegen in seiner Entscheidung eine fehlerhafte Berechnung der CO2-Emissionen
(insbesondere eine falsche Systemabgrenzung) durch das BVwG bemängelt.
