description: his study investigates the modifications of the thermal spectrum, at low frequency, induced by an external damping on a system in heat contact with internal fluctuating impurities. Those impurities can move among locations and their oscillations are associated with a loss function depending on the model. The fluctuation properties of the system are provided by a potential function shaped by wells, in such a way that jumps between the stationary positions are allowed. The power spectral density associated with this dissipation mechanism shows a f^(-gamma)tail. The interest of this problem is that many systems are characterized by a typical f^(-γ) spectral tail at low frequency. The model presented in this article is based on a threshold type behaviour and its generality allows applications in several fields. The effects of an external force, introduced to produce damping, are studied by using both analytical techniques and numerical simulations. The results obtained with the present model show that no reduction of the power spectral density is appreciable below the main peak of the spectral density.

description: Higher order clustering coefficients $C(x)$ are introduced for random networks. The coefficients express probabilities that the shortest distance between any two nearest neighbours of a certain vertex $i$ equals $x$, when one neglects all paths crossing the node $i$. Using $C(x)$ we found that in the Barabási-Albert (BA) model the average shortest path length in a node's neighbourhood is smaller than the equivalent quantity of the whole network and the remainder depends only on the network parameter $m$. Our results show that small values of the standard clustering coefficient in large BA networks are due to random character of the nearest neighbourhood of vertices in such networks.

Nearly Optimal Measurement Scheduling for Partial Tomography of Quantum States

description: Many applications of quantum simulation require to prepare and then characterize quantum states by performing an efficient partial tomography to estimate observables corresponding to $k$-body reduced density matrices ($k$-RDMs). For instance, variational algorithms for the quantum simulation of chemistry usually require that one measure the fermionic 2-RDM. While such marginals provide a tractable description of quantum states from which many important properties can be computed, their determination often requires a prohibitively large number of circuit repetitions. Here we describe a method by which all elements of $k$-body qubit RDMs acting on $N$ qubits can be directly measured with a number of circuits scaling as ${\cal O}(3^{k} \log^{k-1}\! N)$, an exponential improvement in $N$ over prior art. Next, we show that if one is able to implement a linear depth circuit on a linear array prior to measurement, then one can directly measure all elements of the fermionic 2-RDM using only ${\cal O}(N^2)$ circuits. We prove that this result is asymptotically optimal, thus establishing an exponential separation between the number of circuits required to directly measure all elements of qubit versus fermion RDMs. We further demonstrate a technique to estimate the expectation value of any linear combination of fermionic 2-RDM elements using ${\cal O}(N^4 / ω)$ circuits, each with only ${\cal O}(ω)$ gates on a linear array where $ω\leq N$ is a free parameter. We expect these results will improve the viability of many proposals for near-term quantum simulation.

Year: 2025

description: This report summarises the discussions at a workshop organised and hosted by the Wellcome Trust on 27th & 28th February 2024. The workshop brought together 22 external experts researchers with expertise spanning biochemistry, bioinformatics, biophysical chemistry, cellular biology, computational biology, genetics, molecular biology, proteomics, synthetic genomics, and systems biology. It was titled 'Understanding protein function at scale: future challenges and opportunities' and aimed to address the following 3 questions: 

 

 How can we better determine the functions of uncharacterised proteins and identify novel functions of known proteins?
 What properties or characteristics of proteins do we need to understand? What are the technologies that could deliver on this at scale?
 What are the unique opportunities of computational approaches for function prediction/determination?

The goal was to foster dialogue between researchers from a range of fields, in order to outline the key challenges that need to be tackled to rapidly increase our understanding of protein function at scale.

description: The $P_c(4312)$, $P_c(4440)$, and $P_c(4457)$ observed by the LHCb Collaboration are very likely to be $S$-wave $Σ_c\bar{D}^{(*)}$ molecular candidates due to their near-threshold character. In this work, we study the hidden-charm decay modes of these $P_c$ states, $P_c\to J/ψp(η_cp)$, using a quark interchange model. The decay mechanism for the $P_c\to J/ψp(η_cp)$ processes arises from the quark-quark interactions, where all parameters are determined by the mass spectra of mesons. We present our results in two scenarios. In scenario I, we perform the dynamical calculations and treat the $P_c$ states as pure $Σ_c \bar D^{(*)}$ molecules. In scenario II, after considering the coupled channel effect between different flavor configurations $Σ^{(*)}_c\bar D^{(*)}$, we calculate these partial decay widths again. The decay patterns in these two scenarios can help us to explore the molecular assignment and the inner flavor configurations for the $P_c$ states. In particular, the decay widths of $Γ(P_c(4312)\toη_cp)$ are comparable to the $J/ψp$ decay widths in both of these two scenarios. Future experiments like LHCb may confirm the existence of the $P_c(4312)$ in the $η_cp$ channel.

description: This study examines the factors influencing rural dwellers participation in Millennium Village Project (MVP) in Pampaida of Kaduna State, Nigeria. Specifically the socio-economic characteristic of the beneficiaries of the project were identified; and factors influencing rural dwellers participation in the project examined. Data collection process was through the use of structured questionnaire. The study used 120 questionnaires administered to randomly selected respondents in 28 settlements divided into 4 clusters of 7 settlements each. Descriptive statistics and multiple regressions were used to analyze the data. The findings show that most of the respondents were experienced young small scale male adult farmers with little formal education (42%) and massive contact with extension agents. Furthermore, age, income, educational attainment, farm size and extension contact were the reasons why the respondents participated in the MVP. Therefore, the following recommendations were made: more adult education centers should be established in the area, as well as more facilitators employed to increase the educational level of the programme participants; soft loans should be granted to the farmers to offset the bureaucratic procedures for credit facilities.

title: Ask not where heroes come from: class, culture and public housing estates in neoliberal Hong Kong
Creators: name: Yan, Ka Ho
Publisher: name: London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE)
Year: 2023

description: This dissertation is an ethnographic investigation of public housing estates in contemporary Hong Kong. While public housing estates and their residents have been negatively represented in official narratives, this dissertation draws on Pierre Bourdieu’s theory of culture and class to analyse the stigmatisation of public housing estates and frames it as an issue of class politics over a difference in values arising between the neoliberal government (the dominant class) and poorer populations (the dominated class). It inquires into the impacts of territorial stigmatisation on making places, forming groups and shaping the culture of the actual settings of public housing estates in the historical context of the neoliberalisation of public housing. As the central enquiry covers the issues of territorial stigma and internal culture on public housing estates, this dissertation integrates a Bourdieusian approach of class with insights from Oscar Lewis’s theory of poverty culture. Based on the ethnographical data collected from 2014 to 2019 in a mega-estate neighbourhood, called ‘Immortal’, this dissertation examines the everyday stigmatised experience in the aspects of internal culture, sense of place belonging and residential aspiration of a group of estate residents who have suffered poverty for generations. It takes an actor-orientated perspective and makes sense of how the residents develop everyday survival strategies, value their deprived neighbours and neighbourhood, and shape their residential aspirations when public concern and social empathy are either limited or absent. Above all, this dissertation challenges the prevailing narrative of public housing from the ‘powers that be’ by producing an alternative narrative from ‘below’, arguing that the constant stigmatisation of poorer communities in public housing estates unavoidably leads to further economic polarisation, social inequality, and, ultimately, housing injustice. It suggests that revitalising public housing development via the destigmatisation of public housing estates is the most constructive way to build a fairer society in neo-liberal Hong Kong.

description: Este trabajo analizó el desempeño económico de la cadena exportadora de carne vacuna de Uruguay mediante el método de la matriz de análisis de políticas (MAP). Se cuantificaron los efectos de las políticas públicas (impuestos, subsidios, cargas sociales) y las eventuales fallas de mercado que afectan los distintos eslabones, estimándose las potenciales transferencias de recursos, desde o hacia la cadena. Primero se computaron los ingresos y costos en los distintos eslabones considerados: producción, transporte, procesamiento y empaque. Se calcularon los beneficios privados y sociales en toda la cadena, desde el establecimiento ganadero hasta el puerto. Los resultados mostraron un beneficio global de 985,5 US$/ton de carne vacuna procesada para el año 2010. Los agentes privados involucrados en la cadena capturaron el 30% de este valor, dejando sobre la mesa 691US$/ton, en forma de transferencias netas hacia otros sectores de la economía. A nivel global, la transferencia directa de recursos vinculada a la tributación estaría explicando el 29,2% de las divergencias. El peso de las cargas sociales representó 30,3%, en tanto que las ineficiencias en el costo del capital y el costo país ayudarían a explicar el restante 40,5%.
description: This research analyzed the economic performance of the Uruguayan beef export chain using the policy analysis matrix (PAM) method. It quantified the effects of public policies (taxes, subsidies and social security costs) and potential market failures affecting the different rings of the production chain. The potential transfers from and towards the chain were estimated. First, all revenues and costs were computed for each ring of the beef industry: primary production, transportation, and packing. In the second stage, private and social benefits were estimated, from the farm level up to the port. The results showed that global profits generated during 2010 by the beef export chain reached 985.5 US dollars per metric ton of processed beef. The private agents involved in this chain captured 30% of this value, leaving on the table 691 US dollars per metric ton, in terms of net transfers towards other sectors of the economy. At the whole chain level, the direct transfer of resources due to taxation explained 29.2% of the differences. The weight of the social security costs represented 30.3% while the inefficiencies in the cost of capital and the «country» cost helped to explain the remaining 40.5%.

Fig. 84, Map 8
 Types: Male holotype, male, female paratypes from Motlow Cave, Lynchburg, Moore Co. Tennessee (FSCA), collected 2 January 1960 by T. C. Barr.
 Diagnosis: Similar to S. alabama n. sp., but differing in the absence of the mesal angiocoxites and the more fimbriate nature of the colpocoxite branch.
 Etymology: The species epithet honors Jasper “Jack” Daniel (1850–1911), noted distiller of Jack Daniel’s Bourbon Whiskey, still made in Lynchburg, Tennessee, and a favorite libation of the author.
 Description of male from Motlow Cave: Length, 6.7 mm, width 0.5 mm. Structure typical of genus. Gonopods (fig. 84) with completely fused coxosternum; coxal portions project anteriorly; angiocoxal setal groups close together, of 3 or 4 setae, mesal group on low prominence. Mesal angiocoxal branch absent; lateral branch erect, straight, distally tapering to slightly curved point, below which is posterior winglike extension. Colpocoxites large, bulky, fimbriate branch thick, brushlike. Ninth and tenth legpairs typical.
 Female from Motlow Cave: Length, 6.8 mm, width 0.6 mm. Nonsexual characters as in male.
 Distribution: See Map 8 for selected records. All specimens FSCA; all records supported by at least one male. TENNESSEE: Bedford Co. Campbell Cave, 27 August 1957, T. C. Barr, 28 December 1960, 17 January 1961, H. R. Steeves. Friddle Cave, 2 February 1964, H. R. Steeves. Coffee Co. Blowing Cave, 25 July 1972, T. C. Barr; Carroll Cave, 25 July 1957, 5 July 1972, T. C. Barr; Crumpton Creek Cave, 6 July 1972, T. C. Barr; Riley Creek Cave, 6 July 1972, T. C. Barr. Rutherford Co. Bishop Cave, 17 January 1972, T. C. Barr.
 Notes: Motlow Cave, a former commercial cave, is about 600 yards from the famous Jack Daniel Spring Cave, located on the Jack Daniel Distillery grounds, and from which the water used to brew the whiskey is taken. Motlow Cave reputedly connects with Jack Daniel Cave (Barr 1961, p. 337). Causey labeled specimens of this species as “rudis.” Clearly related to S. alabama, from Jackson, Madison and Limestone Counties, Alabama, this species is nonetheless distinct in lacking entirely the mesal colpocoxite branches. The distribution of S. jackdanieli is separated on the eastern side from that of S. alabama by caves in Franklin Co., Tennessee, that are occupied by the widespread species S. ventus Shear. However, in the more westerly part of the range, there are no Scoterpes records from the intervening Lincoln Co., Tennessee. All the currently known records for S. jackdanieli appear to be located in the Duck River drainage.

description: Mainstream economists have begun voicing disquiet about how dicounting affects values ascribed to the distant future. It has been proposed that discount rates should decline through time. Some reasons for this (hyperbolic discounting by one individual, fair treatment of future generations, different time perspectives of presently living individuals) lead to inconsistent decisions through time. Diminishing marginal utility provides a robust and stable justification for discounting. Combination of different income groups, different goods and different scenarios yields discount functions in which discount rate tends to decline, though not always similarly. Uncertainty about future return on investment affects discounting arguments based on compensation or endowment of future generations, but drives these arguments in opposite directions. Time preference rates so derived have no normative significance. The most politically appealing argument for declining discounting is that it rejects environmentally damaging projects, and supports the claims of the distant future, without requiring great sacrifice in the present.

description: Standard sirens have been proposed as probes of alternative theories of gravity, such as Horndeski models. Hitherto, all studies have been conducted on a homogeneous-isotropic cosmological background, which is unable to consistently account for realistic distributions of matter, and for inhomogeneities in the Horndeski scalar field. Yet, the latter are essential for screening mechanisms. In this article, we comprehensively analyze the propagation of Horndeski gravitational waves in an arbitrary background spacetime and scalar field. We restrict to the class of theories in which gravitational waves propagate at light speed, and work in the geometric-optics regime. We find that kinetic braiding only produces a nonphysical longitudinal mode, whereas conformal coupling affects the amplitude of the standard transverse modes but not their polarization. We confirm that any observable deviation from general relativity depends on the local value of the effective Planck mass at emission and reception of the wave. This result is interpreted as the conservation of the number of gravitons.

description: The present study was undertaken to examine the value addition and supply chain management for women-led Aman seed business. Data were collected from sixty women and six intermediaries who are randomly selected. It reveals that Aman seed production was profitable and the value addition per hectare was Tk.21981 whereas the farmer earned TlL 11213 depending on seed preserved. The BCR was greater than one, which also indicated profitability. The value addition by seed company, dealer, retailer and Bepari were Tk.3203, Tk.1426, Tk.1800 and Tk.5365 per tonne respectively. Seventy one percent seed was sold at home. Most of the farmers received information and technical support from RDA. To reduce the inefficiency in the supply chain a PPP model was suggested. For better development of women entrepreneurs, provision of logistical support, strategy and policy formulation and well coordination among GO, NGO and private organization is necessary to make the seed business viable.

 Distribution (Map 6): All specimens FSCA; all records supported by males. GEORGIA: Dade Co. Byers Cave, 1.5 mi SW Rising Fawn, 18 June 1967, J. Holsinger et al.; same locality, 9 August 1967, S. Peck. ALABAMA: DeKalb Co. Sequoyah Caverns, Valley Head, 9 August 1967, S. Peck, male.
 Notes: Cemetary Cave, or Pit, is a large, complex cave system that can only be entered by means of a 150- foot vertical drop. The adjoining areas of DeKalb Co., Alabama, and Dade Co., Georgia, are also home to S. austrinus Loomis, and the species both occur in the Rising Fawn area in caves no more than 5 miles apart, but in narrowly separated karst windows. Reeves (in litt.) says “...Sequoia [sic] Caverns is a commercial cave in Alabama near Rising Fawn, Georgia. It is on the same piece of limestone as Cemetary Pit, Rustys Cave, and all the other Fox Mountain sites.” Cemetary Pit and other Fox Mountain caves are on a 332-acre preserve owned by the Southeastern Cave Conservancy. The property contains many other caves large and small, and these should be explored for new localites for S. willreevesi.
 This species is probably, along with S. syntheticus, the most distinctive species of Scoterpes because of the large, complexly folded angiocoxites. It is nothing like the broadly sympatric S. austrinus. The specimens from Sequoyah Caverns and Byers Cave were labeled “latus” by Causey; this is an unpublished name.

The effects of relativistic bulk motion of X-ray flares in the corona on the iron Kalpha line in Seyfert 1 galaxies

description: We study the effects of the bulk motion of X-ray flares on the shape and equivalent width of the iron Kalpha line from an untruncated cold disk around a Kerr black hole using fully relativistic calculations. The flares are located above a cold accretion disk -- either on or off the rotation axis. For on- or off-axis flares, the upward/outward bulk motion causes a reduction of the iron Kalpha line width. To a distant observer with a low inclination angle (θ_o \simlt 30deg.), larger upward/outward bulk velocities decrease the extension of the red wing, with little change in the location of the blue `edge'. In contrast, an observer at a large inclination angle (e.g. θ_o=60deg.) sees both the red wing and the blue `edge' change with the bulk velocity. The equivalent width of the iron Kalpha line decreases rapidly with increasing bulk velocity of flares. However, the `narrower' line profiles observed in some objects (e.g. IC4329A and NGC4593) are difficult to produce using the out-flowing magnetic flare model with an appropriate equivalent width unless the X-ray emission is concentrated in an outer region with a radius of several tens of r_g=GM/c^2 or more. An important result is that the iron Kalpha line intensity is found to be constant even though the continuum flux varies significantly, which is true for out-flowing magnetic flares with different bulk velocities but similar intrinsic luminosities when located close to the central black hole. We find that fluctuations in the bulk velocities of out-flowing low-height flares located at the inner region (r\simlt 15r_g) can account for a constant iron Kalpha line and significant continuum variation as observered in MCG-6-30-15 and NGC5548.

description: We show that the experimental data of transverse momentum ($p_{T}$) spectra of $Ω$ baryon and $ϕ$ meson at mid-rapidity in heavy-ion collisions exhibit the constituent quark number scaling in a wide energy range from RHIC to LHC. Such a scaling behavior is a direct consequence of quark combination mechanism via equal velocity combination and provides a very convenient way to extract the $p_{T}$ spectrum of strange quarks at hadronization. We present the results of strange quarks obtained from the available data and study the properties in particular the energy dependence of the averaged transverse momentum $\langle p_{T}\rangle$ and the transverse radial flow velocity $\langleβ\rangle$ with a hydrodynamics-motivated blast-wave model.

EXPORT DEMAND FUNCTION FOR BANGLADESH'S TEA

Subjects: Demand and Price Analysis

description: This paper investigates the existence of long run export demand function for Bangladesh's tea and tests for three conditions of small country assumption, namely, one to one relation between export price of tea and price substitute goods in the world market, infinitely own price elasticity of export demand, and no significant effect of world income on tea export. For this purpose an inverse demand function (price dependent) is estimated using two-step Engle-Granger Procedure proposed by Engle and Granger (1987) and a third step of the Engle-Granger Procedure proposed by Engle and Yoo (1991). It has been found that there exists long-run export demand function (inverse) for Bangladesh's tea. There also exists short run Error Correction Model (ECM). The results suggest that none of the three conditions of small country assumption can be rejected. This is evident both from long run model and short run ECM. Earlier study found that price elasticity of export demand for tea is zero which suggests that Bangladesh can impose export tax on tea to maximize revenue earnings from tea exports. The finding of the present study rules out such a policy of export tax.

description: The paper evaluates the effective incentives in terms of level of protection in cotton production under different scenarios for the period 1990-91 to 2004-05 in Pakistan. Secondary data from different official sources were used to derive the necessary indicators used in the analysis. NPC and NRP were measured at official and shadow exchange rates. The objective of the paper is to examine the incentive structure prevailing in cotton production of Pakistan through analysis of the level of protection. The results indicate that on average cotton was neither protected nor disprotected substantially at the prevailing exchange rates under an exportable scenario with the exception of few years, whereas overall protection to cotton producers has been negative under exportable and importable scenarios with a shadow exchange rate.

description: Surface phonon polaritons hold much potential for subwavelength control and manipulation of light at the infrared to terahertz wavelengths. Here, aided by monochromatic scanning transmission electron microscopy - electron energy loss spectroscopy technique, we study the excitation of optical phonon modes in SiC nanorods. Surface phonon polaritons are modulated by the geometry and size of SiC nanorods. In particular, we study the dispersion relation, spatial dependence and geometry and size effects of surface phonon polaritons. These experimental results are in agreement with dielectric response theory and numerical simulation. Providing critical information for manipulating light in polar dielectrics, these findings should be useful for design of novel nanoscale phonon-photonic devices.
A Possible Explanation for the "Parallel Tracks" Phenomenon in Low-Mass X-Ray Binaries
Creators: name: van der Klis, M.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: An explanation is proposed for the fact that in LMXBs the correlation between most observable X-ray spectral and timing parameters (such as kHz QPO frequency) on the one hand, and Lx on the other, while generally good in a given source on a time scale of hours, is absent both on longer time scales and between sources. This leads to parallel tracks in plots of such parameters vs. Lx. Where previous explanations require at least two time-variable independent parameters, e.g. Mdot through the disk and through a radial inflow, one is in fact sufficient if the systemic response to time variations in this variable has both a prompt and a time-averaged component. I explore a scenario in which most observable spectral and timing parameters to first order depend on disk accretion rate normalized by its own long-term average rather than on any individual Mdot; Lx just depends on total Mdot. Thus, parameters can be uncorrelated to Mdot, yet vary in response to Mdot variations. Numerical simulations of the model describing the dependence of kHz QPO frequency on Lx, which observationally is characterized by a striking pattern of parallel tracks both in individual sources and between sources, reproduce the observations remarkably well. A physical interpretation involving a radial inflow with a rate that derives through a time averaging process from the disk accretion rate, and an inner disk radius that depends on the balance between the accretion through the disk and the total luminosity seems particularly promising. The consequences of this idea for our understanding of states and tracks in LMXBs are discussed, and the applicability of the idea to black-hole candidates, where the observational situation is more complex, is briefly addressed.

description: The magnetic properties of CeRu$_2$Si$_2$ at microkelvin temperatures (down to 170 $μ$K) and ultra small magnetic fields ($0.02\sim6.21$ mT) are investigated experimentally for the first time. The simultaneously measured ac susceptibility and static magnetization show neither evidence of the magnetic ordering, superconductivity down to the lowest temperatures nor conventional Landau Fermi-Liquid behavior. The results imply the magnetic transition temperature in undoped CeRu$_2$Si$_2$ is very close to absolute 0 K. The possibility for proximity of CeRu$_2$Si$_2$ to the quantum critical point without any doping is discussed.
