description: A brief review is given of three recent results concerning classical solutions of gravitational theories: (1) With asymptotically anti de Sitter boundary conditions, there are matter theories satisfying the positive energy theorem which violate cosmic censorship. (2) Despite supersymmetry, there are solutions to N=8 supergravity in which the total gravitational energy is arbitrarily negative. This theory can also violate cosmic censorship. (3) A large class of supersymmetric compactifications (including all simply connected Calabi-Yau manifolds) have solutions with negative four dimensional effective energy density.

Subjects: Financial Economics

description: Most of the literature on the macroeconomics of U.S. agriculture is cast in the context of a closed economy. Moreover, it considers a world in which there is rapid technological change, and focuses on the problems involved in the so-called agricultural transformation the process whereby an important share of the agricultural labor force is transferred out of agriculture and new modern inputs produced in the nonfarm sector are introduced Consequently , it tends to ignore our linkages to an international economy, and focuses instead on the secular income problems that agriculture faces as it is subjected to the processes of economic growth.

description: We have constructed models of uniformly rotating compact stars including hyperons, Bose-Einstein condensates of antikaons and quarks. First order phase transitions from hadronic to antikaon condensed matter and then to quark matter are considered here. For the equation of state undergoing phase transitions to antikaon condensates, the third family of compact stars are found to exist in the fixed angular velocity sequences. However, the third family solution disappears when the compact stars rotate very fast. For this equation of state, the fixed baryon number supramassive sequence shows a second stable part after the unstable region but no back bending phenomenon. On the other hand, we observe that the rotation gives rise to a second maximum beyond the neutron star maximum for the equation of state involving phase transitions to both antikaon condensed and quark matter. In this case, the back bending phenomenon has been observed in the supramassive sequence as a consequence of the first order phase transition from $K^-$ condensed to quark matter. And the back bending segment contains stable configurations of neutron stars.

description: Chinese Cordyceps is a famous fungus–larva symbiont. In this study, the levels of Pb, Ni, As, and Cd and some major metals in the soil environment that may contribute to the occurrence of Chinese Cordyceps have been determined. Assessments showed that potential ecological risks in the study areas from these elements were low and in the order of Cd > As > Pb > Ni. Multiple linear regression analysis showed that As, Se and available Mn were significantly correlated with the occurrence of Chinese Cordyceps.

description: Selenium is a nutrient element essential for the growth and reproduction of plants and animals. Generally, selenium nanoparticle has a high level of absorption in regular supplementation comparative to selenium. In this study, selenium nanoparticles have been synthesized using a cell-free extract of Geobacillus as a reducing and stabilizing agent. This is for the first time; Geobacillus has been used for the synthesis of selenium nanoparticles. The cell-free extract of bacteria has active enzymes that are responsible for the reduction of sodium selenite to prepare selenium nanoparticles. The cell-free extract increased the reduction process comparative to the bacterial reduction. The biosynthesized nanoparticles were characterized by UV-visible spectrophotometry, transmission electron microscopy along with selected area electron diffraction, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. The spherical nanoparticles have diameters in the range of 30 to 60 nm. The antioxidant activity was evaluated by various antioxidant assays. This study revealed that biofunctionalized selenium nanoparticle has more antioxidant activity than sodium selenite and cell-free extract.

description: The thin layer approximation applied to the expansion of a supernova remnant assumes that all the swept mass resides in a thin shell. The law of motion in the thin layer approximation is therefore found using the conservation of momentum. Here we instead introduce the conservation of energy in the framework of the thin layer approximation. The first case to be analysed is that of an interstellar medium with constant density and the second case is that of 7 profiles of decreasing density with respect to the centre of the explosion. The analytical and numerical results are applied to 4 supernova remnants: Tycho, Cas A, Cygnus loop, and SN 1006. The back reaction due to the radiative losses for the law of motion is evaluated in the case of constant density of the interstellar medium.

description: The propagation of a laser beam through turbulent media is modeled as a fractional Brownian motion (fBm). Time series corresponding to the center position of the laser spot (coordinates x and y) after traveling across air in turbulent motion, with different strength, are analyzed by the wavelet theory. Two quantifiers are calculated, the Hurst exponent and the mean Normalized Total Wavelet Entropy. It is verified that both quantifiers gives complementary information about the turbulence state.

description: We present the first utterly self-supervised network for dense correspondence mapping between non-isometric shapes. The task of alignment in non-Euclidean domains is one of the most fundamental and crucial problems in computer vision. As 3D scanners can generate highly complex and dense models, the mission of finding dense mappings between those models is vital. The novelty of our solution is based on a cyclic mapping between metric spaces, where the distance between a pair of points should remain invariant after the full cycle. As the same learnable rules that generate the point-wise descriptors apply in both directions, the network learns invariant structures without any labels while coping with non-isometric deformations. We show here state-of-the-art-results by a large margin for a variety of tasks compared to known self-supervised and supervised methods.

description: In this article, we consider a new robust estimation procedure for functional linear models with both slope function and functional predictor approximated by functional principal component basis functions. A modified Huber's function with tail function substituted by the exponential squared loss (ESL) is applied to the estimation procedure for achieving robustness against outliers. The tuning parameters of the new estimation method are data-driven, which enables us to reach better robustness and efficiency than other robust methods in the presence of outliers or heavy-tailed error distribution. We will show that the resulting estimator for the slope function achieves the optimal convergence rate as the least-squares estimator does in the classical functional linear regression. The convergence rate of the prediction in terms of conditional mean squared prediction error is also established. The proposed method is illustrated with simulation studies and a real data example.

description: A planet's climate can be strongly affected by its orbital eccentricity and obliquity. Here we use a 1-dimensional energy balance model modified to include a simple runaway greenhouse (RGH) parameterization to explore the effects of these two parameters on the climate of Earth-like aqua planets - completely ocean-covered planets - orbiting F-, G-, K-, and M-dwarf stars. We find that the range of instellations for which planets exhibit habitable surface conditions throughout an orbit decreases with increasing eccentricity. However, the appearance of temporarily habitable conditions during an orbit creates an eccentric habitable zone (EHZ) that is sensitive to orbital eccentricity and obliquity, planetary latitude, and host star spectral type. We find that the fraction of a planet's orbit over which it exhibits habitable surface conditions is larger on eccentric planets orbiting M-dwarf stars, due to the lower broadband planetary albedos of these planets. Planets with larger obliquities have smaller EHZs, but exhibit warmer climates if they do not enter a snowball state during their orbits. We also find no transient runaway greenhouse state on planets at all eccentricities. Rather, planets spend their entire orbits either in a RGH or not. For G-dwarf planets receiving 100% of the modern solar constant and with eccentricities above 0.55, an entire Earth ocean inventory can be lost in 3.6 Gyr. M-dwarf planets, due to their larger incident XUV flux, can become desiccated in only 690 Myr with eccentricities above 0.38. This work has important implications for eccentric planets that may exhibit surface habitability despite technically departing from the traditional habitable zone as they orbit their host stars.

Anisotropy of Magnetohydrodynamic Turbulence and the Polarized Spectra of OH Masers

description: We consider astrophysical maser radiation that is created in the presence of mildly supersonic, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) turbulence. The focus is on the OH masers for which the magnetic field is strong enough that the separations of the Zeeman components are greater than the spectral linebreadths. A longstanding puzzle has been the absence of the Zeeman $π$ components and the high circular polarization in the observed spectra of these masers. We first argue that the elongation of eddies along the field that has recently been recognized in MHD turbulence will enhance the optical depth parallel to the magnetic field in comparison with that perpendicular to the magnetic field. We then simulate maser emission with a numerical model of MHD turbulence to demonstrate quantitatively how the intensities of the linearly polarized $π$ components are suppressed and the intensities of the nearly circularly polarized $σ$ components are enhanced. This effect is also generic in the sense that most spectral lines in MHD turbulence with Mach number $M\sim 1$ should have larger optical depths parallel to the magnetic field than perpendicular. The effect is reduced considerably when $M<1$. The simulations also demonstrate that the velocity and magnetic field variations due to the turbulence can (but do not necessarily) cause one of the $σ$ components to be much more intense than the other, as is often observed for mainline OH masers.

description: Chi-squared tests for lack of fit are traditionally employed to find evidence against a hypothesized model, with the model accepted if the Karl Pearson statistic comparing observed and expected numbers of observations falling within cells is not significantly large. However, if one really wants evidence for goodness of fit, it is better to adopt an equivalence testing approach in which small values of the chi-squared statistic indicate evidence for the desired model. This method requires one to define what is meant by equivalence to the desired model, and guidelines are proposed. It is shown that the evidence for equivalence can distinguish between normal and nearby models, as well between the Poisson and over-dispersed models. Applications to the evaluation of random number generators and to uniformity of the digits of pi are included. Sample sizes required to obtain a desired expected evidence for goodness of fit are also provided.

description: We calculate the O(alpha) electroweak corrections to charged- and neutral-current deep-inelastic neutrino scattering off an isoscalar target. The full one-loop-corrected cross sections, including hard photonic corrections, are evaluated and compared to an earlier result which was used in the NuTeV analysis. In particular, we compare results that differ in input-parameter scheme, treatment of real photon radiation and factorization scheme. The associated shifts in the theoretical prediction for the ratio of neutral- and charged-current cross sections can be larger than the experimental accuracy of the NuTeV result.

description: RNA-binding proteins (RBPs) play diverse roles in regulating co-transcriptional RNA-processing and chromatin functions, but our knowledge of the repertoire of chromatin-associated RBPs (caRBPs) and their interactions with chromatin remains limited. Here, we developed SPACE (Silica Particle Assisted Chromatin Enrichment) to isolate global and regional chromatin components with high specificity and sensitivity, and SPACEmap to identify the chromatin-contact regions in proteins. Applied to mouse embryonic stem cells, SPACE identified 1459 chromatin-associated proteins, ∼48% of which are annotated as RBPs, indicating their dual roles in chromatin and RNA-binding. Additionally, SPACEmap stringently verified chromatin-binding of 403 RBPs and identified their chromatin-contact regions. Notably, SPACEmap showed that about 40% of the caRBPs bind chromatin by intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs). Studying SPACE and total proteome dynamics from mES cells grown in 2iL and serum medium indicates significant correlation (R = 0.62). One of the most dynamic caRBPs is Dazl, which we find co-localized with PRC2 at transcription start sites of genes that are distinct from Dazl mRNA binding. Dazl and other PRC2-colocalised caRBPs are rich in intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs), which could contribute to the formation and regulation of phase-separated PRC condensates. Together, our approach provides an unprecedented insight into IDR-mediated interactions and caRBPs with moonlighting functions in native chromatin.

description: A single-photon Fock state has been generated by means of conditional preparation from a two-photon state emitted in the process of spontaneous parametric down-conversion. A recently developed high-frequency homodyne tomography technique has been used to completely characterize the Fock state by means of a pulse-to-pulse analysis of the detectors' difference photocurrent. The density matrix elements of the generated state have been retrieved with a final detection efficiency of about 57%. A comparison has been performed between the phase-averaged tomographic reconstructions of the Wigner function as obtained from the measured density-matrix elements and from a direct Abel transform of the homodyne data. The ability of our system to work at the full repetition rate of the pulsed laser (82 MHz) substantially simplifies the detection scheme, allowing for more ``exotic'' quantum states to be generated and analyzed.

description: Online social networks are the perfect test bed to better understand large-scale human behavior in interacting contexts. Although they are broadly used and studied, little is known about how their terms of service and posting rules affect the way users interact and information spreads. Acknowledging the relation between network connectivity and functionality, we compare the robustness of two different online social platforms, Twitter and Gab, with respect to dismantling strategies based on the recursive censor of users characterized by social prominence (degree) or intensity of inflammatory content (sentiment). We find that the moderated (Twitter) vs unmoderated (Gab) character of the network is not a discriminating factor for intervention effectiveness. We find, however, that more complex strategies based upon the combination of topological and content features may be effective for network dismantling. Our results provide useful indications to design better strategies for countervailing the production and dissemination of anti-social content in online social platforms.

description: While massive black holes (MBHs) are known to inhabit all massive galaxies, their ubiquitous presence in dwarf galaxies has not been confirmed yet, with only a limited number of sources detected so far. Recently, some studies proposed infrared emission as an alternative way to identify MBHs in dwarfs, based on a similar approach usually applied to quasars. In this study, by accurately combining optical and infrared data taking into account resolution effects and source overlapping, we investigate in detail the possible limitations of this approach with current ground-based facilities, finding a quite low ($\sim$0.4 per cent) fraction of active MBH in dwarfs that are luminous in mid-infrared, consistent with several previous results. Our results suggest that the infrared selection is strongly affected by several limitations that make the identification of MBHs in dwarf galaxies currently prohibitive, especially because of the very poor resolution compared to optical surveys, and the likely contamination by nearby sources, although we find a few good candidates worth further follow-ups. Optical, X-ray and radio observations, therefore, still represent the most secure way to search for MBH in dwarfs.

description: We present spectral analysis of the Crab Nebula obtained with the {\it Chandra} X-ray observatory. The X-ray spectrum is characterized by a power-law whose index varies across the nebula. The variation can be discussed in terms of the particle injection from the pulsar in two different directions: the equatorial plane containing the torus and the symmetry axis along the jet. In the equatorial plane, spectra within the torus are the hardest, with photon index $α\approx 1.9$, and are almost independent of the surface brightness. At the periphery of the torus, the spectrum gradually softens in the outer, lower surface brightness regions, up to $α\approx 3.0$. This indicates that synchrotron losses become significant to X-ray emitting particles at the outer boundary of the torus. We discuss the nature of the torus, incorporating information from observations at other wavelengths. Spectral variations are also seen within the southern jet. The core of the jet is the hardest with $α\approx$ 2.0, and the outer sheath surrounding the core becomes softer with $α$ up to 2.5 at the outermost part. Based on the similarity between the spectra of the jet core and the torus, we suggest that the electron spectra of the particles injected from the pulsar are also similar in these two different directions. The brightness ratio between the near and far sides of the torus can be explained by Doppler boosting and relativistic aberration; however, the observed ratio cannot be derived from the standard weakly magnetized pulsar wind model. We also found a site where an optical filament comprised of supernova ejecta is absorbing the soft X-ray emission ($

“Contrivances for superseding all human labour”: the work-abolitionist experiments of John Adolphus Etzler and their significance for contemporary post-work politics

description: This thesis delivers a novel microhistorical study of the career and ideas of the nineteenth-century socialist and inventor John Adolphus Etzler. It traces the early development of Etzler’s vision for the global abolition of work-based civilization through the substitution of human workers by purpose-built mechanical automata, and corresponding plans for the reorganisation of human community life around a network of utopian megastructures in which all necessaries of survival and comfort, prepared and delivered automatically by the machines, could be freely enjoyed by a liberated humanity without any individual experience of material scarcity, economic duress or involuntary exertion. Using copious newly-discovered primary evidence, it significantly augments existing accounts of Etzler’s life and thought, uncovering hitherto entirely unknown phases of his early career, mechanical experimentation and formative political influences, and corrects several errors of fact and interpretation in prior Etzler scholarship, especially concerning the catastrophic failure of an 1845–1847 expedition by hundreds of British chartists to establish, on Etzler’s blueprint, the first fully workless, mechanised human city in a remote tract of uninhabited Venezuelan jungle under the auspices of the Tropical Emigration Society. It finds that the collapse of the TES scheme in South America owed more to internecine power struggles and the hazards associated with nineteenth-century transatlantic emigration generally than to flaws intrinsic to the fundamental Etzlerist programme of socialistic mechanical substitution of human workers. Building on this rehabilitation of Etzlerism as a coherent and plausible response to the depredations of capitalism, the thesis then evaluates the relevance of Etzler’s career for the resurgent twenty-first-century scholarship of ‘post-work’ politics, a literature amongst which, despite substantial similarities of ideas and intent, the history of Etzlerism remains wholly neglected.

description: We present a multi-purpose mirror furnace designed for synchrotron X-ray experiments. The furnace is optimized specifically for dark-field X-ray microscopy (DFXM) of crystalline materials at the beamline ID06 of the ESRF. The furnace can reach up to ~1600°C with stability better than 2°C, and heating and cooling rates up to 30°C/s. The contact-less design enables samples to be heated either in air or in a controlled atmosphere in a capillary tube. The temperature was calibrated via the thermal expansion of an a-iron grain. Temperature profiles in the y and z axes were measured by scanning a thermocouple through the focal spot of the furnace. In the current configuration of the beamline, the furnace can be used for DFXM, near-field X-ray topography, bright field X-ray nanotomography, high resolution reciprocal space mapping, and limited powder diffraction experiments. As a first application, we present a DFXM case study on isothermal heating of a commercially pure Al single crystal.

description: Agriculture sector is the keystone of the economy of Pakistan. It contributes about 19 percent to GDP, accounts for 60 percent of its exports, and provides employment opportunities to 42.3 percent of total labor force. Increasing population is putting pressure on the agriculture sector to fulfill their basic needs related to food and fiber. Water is a key input in development of agriculture and food security in Pakistan. The per capita water availability in Pakistan is 1100 m3, below 1000 m3 water availability means water stress condition. Every coming day is putting pressure on the irrigation sector due to increase of water demand, low water supply, low irrigation efficiency, mismanagement and increasing demand of food items. Participatory Irrigation Management (PIM) involves the farmers in operation and management (O&M) of irrigation system. These reforms in Pakistan are facing various challenges to achieve its objectives due to conflicts between Farmer Organizations (FOs) and Provincial Irrigation Authorities, although farmers both at head and tail reaches of study areas are in favor of these reforms. The success rate of this reform varies from place to place. This study was carried out in 2 distributaries of LCC (West) Circle, Faisalabad-Pakistan i.e. Maduana (under irrigation Department) and Nasrana (under Punjab Irrigation and Drainage Authority). Data were collected from 120 farmers, 60 from each distributary through random sampling technique. This study evaluated the motives of farmers to pay irrigation fees and participation in irrigation infrastructure improvement and assessed the impact of irrigation reforms on agricultural productivity and water availability. Results showed that farmers situated on distributary under reformed area were having timely and greater water availability across seasons, having more productivity, were paying more water charges and taking part in the rehabilitation of irrigation infrastructure.

description: We present a class of exact vacuum solutions corresponding to de Sitter and warm inflation models in the framework of scalar-tensor cosmologies. We show that in both cases the field equations reduce to planar dynamical systems with constraints. Then, we carry out a qualitative analysis of the models by examining the phase diagrams of the solutions near the equilibrium points.
