description: We present the supersymmetric completion of the auxiliary vector modified polynomial $f(R)$ theories in their dual scalar-tensor theory formulation that interpolate between the auxiliary vector modified polynomial $f(R)$ theories and chaotic inflation with the power-law potential $V(ϕ) \propto ϕ^p$. The supersymmetrization is achieved in two steps: First, we introduce a superconformal theory for three chiral multiplets by choosing a conformal Kähler potential and a conformal superpotential. In the second step, we use one of the chiral multiplets to compensate for the superconformal symmetries and achieve the Kähler potential and the superpotential while the other two are used to realize inflation with a stable inflationary trajectory. The stability of the inflationary trajectory requires certain deformations to the Kähler potential which we discuss their compatibility against the inflationary observables from the latest Planck data.

description: Subsidised energy prices in pre-transition Hungary had led to excessive energy intensity in the agricultural sector. Transition has resulted in steep input price increases. In this study, Allen and Morishima elasticities of substitution are estimated to study the effects of these price changes on energy use, chemical input use, capital formation and employment. Panel data methods, Generalised Method of Moments (GMM) and instrument exogeneity tests are used to specify and estimate technology and substitution elasticities. Results indicate that indirect price policy may be effective in controlling energy consumption. The sustained increases in energy and chemical input prices have worked together to restrict energy and chemical input use, and the substitutability between energy, capital and labour has prevented the capital shrinkage and agricultural unemployment situations from being worse. The Hungarian push towards lower energy intensity may be best pursued through sustained energy price increases rather than capital subsidies. © 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Gewalt und bürgerliches Subjekt beim „brutalen Naturalisten“ Franz Schamann
Creators: name: Budňák, Jan
Publisher: name: Medienimpulse
Year: 2021

description: Der aus Brünn stammende, ab 1902 in Wien wirkende Autor und Journalist Franz Schamann (1876–1909) wurde zu Lebzeiten und darüber hinaus einhellig als extremer Naturalist betrachtet. In der Tat finden sich in seinen Texten zahlreiche Repräsentationen von symbolischer sowie physischer Gewalt in (epochen-)typischerweise proletarischen bzw. armen ländlichen Milieus. Im Beitrag werden Schamanns frühe, in Brünn und Südmähren spielenden Texte analysiert: das Volksstück Liebe (1901) und sein erster Erzählband Mährische Geschichten (1902). Während in Liebe die Tötung als ein legitimer und selbst von bürgerlichen Institutionen sanktionierter Ausweg auf dem Weg zum idealisierten bürgerlichen Subjekt gewertet wird, sind die Figuren der Mährischen Geschichten in einem Netzwerk der Gewalt gefangen, das ihnen kaum andere als gewalttätige Handlungsoptionen offenlässt. Die breite Streuung von Funktionen der Gewalt in Schamanns Texten wird abschließend als Krisensymptom des bürgerlichen Subjekts (Andreas Reckwitz) kontextualisiert.

description: This article employs a short-term specification of the symmetric generalised McFadden (SGM) cost function capable of accommodating quasi-fixed factors and variable returns. Temporary equilibrium and scale economies are investigated while maintaining the consistency of the estimated model with microeconomic theory and approximation properties. It also makes use of a two-step procedure to estimate first the technology parameters and then time-varying efficiency at farm level. No distributional assumptions are required on efficiency as we consider a fixed effect model. A balanced panel of Italian dairy farms during the years from 1980 to 1992 serves as the case study. The results suggest a rigid productive structure during the pre- and post-quota period. Moreover, Italian milk producers are found to exhibit considerable excess capacity and rather low input technical efficiency. © 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

description: This paper gives a review of our recent work on the quantum Frenkel-Kontorova model. Using the squeezed state theory and the quantum Monte Carlo method, we have studied the effects of quantum fluctuations on the Aubry transition and the behavior of the ground state wave function. We found that quantum fluctuations renormalize the sinusoidal standard map to a sawtooth map. Although quantum fluctuations have smeared the Aubry transition, the remnants of this transition are still discernible. The ground state wave function also changes from an extended state to a localized state. The squeezed state results agree very well with those from the Monte Carlo and mean field studies.

description: Welche Strategien verfolgten nichtkanonisierte Schwarze Autorinnen im Umfeld der Bürgerrechts- und Frauenbewegungen, um sich ins politische und kulturelle Archiv einzuschreiben? Der Beitrag fokussiert die Lebens- und Werkgeschichte von Unokanma Okonjo, einer bislang kaum erforschten, antirassistisch und antisexistisch engagierten, transnational positionierten Akteurin der 1960er- und 1970er-Jahre. Die panafrikanische Aktivistin und engagierte Sozialwissenschaftlerin veröffentlichte agitatorische, akademische und lyrische Texte. Der Beitrag analysiert in erster Linie diese Produktion von Texten und das Begehren der Autorin nach „Gelesenwerden“ und arbeitet dabei mit den Konzepten „ikonische Artikulation“ als Element performativen Handelns, Talking Back als Äußerungsform minorisierter Schwarzer Frauen* sowie „Publishing Back“ als Weiterführung von Praktiken der Auto_Biografie und der Selbstdokumentation. Die Bewegungen von Autorinnen wie Okonjo ins und aus dem Archiv Schwarzer postkolonialer feministischer Geschichte werden als unabgeschlossene Projekte einer „Selbstveröffentlichung“ diskutiert.

The Evolution of Earth's Magnetosphere During the Solar Main Sequence

description: As a star spins-down during the main sequence, its wind properties are affected. In this work, we investigate how the Earth's magnetosphere has responded to the change in the solar wind. Earth's magnetosphere is simulated using 3D magnetohydrodynamic models that incorporate the evolving local properties of the solar wind. The solar wind, on the other hand, is modelled in 1.5D for a range of rotation rates Omega from 50 to 0.8 times the present-day solar rotation (Omega_sun). Our solar wind model uses empirical values for magnetic field strengths, base temperature and density, which are derived from observations of solar-like stars. We find that for rotation rates ~10 Omega_sun, Earth's magnetosphere was substantially smaller than it is today, exhibiting a strong bow shock. As the sun spins down, the magnetopause standoff distance varies with Omega^{-0.27} for higher rotation rates (early ages, > 1.4 Omega_sun), and with Omega^{-2.04} for lower rotation rates (older ages, < 1.4 Omega_sun). This break is a result of the empirical properties adopted for the solar wind evolution. We also see a linear relationship between magnetopause distance and the thickness of the shock on the subsolar line for the majority of the evolution (< 10 Omega_sun). It is possible that a young fast rotating Sun would have had rotation rates as high as 30 to 50 Omega_sun. In these speculative scenarios, at 30 Omega_sun, a weak shock would have been formed, but for 50 Omega_sun, we find that no bow shock could be present around Earth's magnetosphere. This implies that with the Sun continuing to spin down, a strong shock would have developed around our planet, and remained for most of the duration of the solar main sequence.

description: This paper focuses on the economic consequences of droughts for the irrigation sector. We develop a dynamic-recursive mathematical programming farm model that assumes imperfect mobility of capital and labour as well as rational expectations about future water availability. The model is calibrated to 12 representative farms belonging to three irrigation communities of the Guadalquivir Basin (south Spain) and used to simulate the 1991-1997 period, which included 3 years of intense drought. Results indicate that the drought imposed significant costs on farmers, but show also that water managers partly exacerbated these costs by allocating excessive amounts of water to irrigators in the abundant years. The model is also used to evaluate the benefits of a perfect water supply forecast and to simulate the economic gains of a voluntary water banking scheme. Results show that the benefits resulting from the perfect forecast of water supply 1 year ahead would represent a relative gain of 5%. However, a voluntary banking system would allow farmers to increase their benefits by 32-82% depending on the supply system. © 2003 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

description: In this work we consider a cosmological model in which dark energy is portrayed by a canonical scalar field which is allowed to couple to the other species by means of a disformal transformation of the metric. We revisit the current literature by assuming that the disformal function in the metric transformation can depend both on the scalar field itself and on its derivatives, encapsulating a wide variety of scalar-tensor theories. This generalisation also leads to new and richer phenomenology, explaining some of the features found in previously studied models. We present the background equations and perform a detailed dynamical analysis, from where new disformal fixed points emerge, that translate into novel cosmological features. These include early scaling regimes between the coupled species and broader stability parameter regions. However, viable cosmological models seem to have suppressed disformal late-time contributions.

description: The universal form of the density of nonphononic, quasilocalized vibrational modes of frequency $ω$ in structural glasses, ${\cal D}(ω)$, was predicted theoretically decades ago, but only recently revealed in numerical simulations. In particular, it has been recently established that, in generic computer glasses, ${\cal D}(ω)$ increases from zero frequency as $ω^4$, independent of spatial dimension and of microscopic details. However, in [E. Lerner, and E. Bouchbinder, Phys. Rev. E 96, 020104(R) (2017)] it was shown that the preparation protocol employed to create glassy samples may affect the form of their resulting ${\cal D}(ω)$: glassy samples rapidly quenched from high temperature liquid states were shown to feature ${\cal D}(ω)\!\sim\!ω^β$ with $β\!

description: We identify a simulated Milky Way analog in the EAGLE suite of cosmological hydrodynamical simulations. This galaxy not only shares similar global properties as the Milky Way, but was specifically selected because its merger history resembles that currently known for the Milky Way. In particular we find that this Milky Way analog has experienced its last significant merger (with a stellar mass ratio $\sim 0.2$) at $z\sim 1.2$. We show that this merger affected both the dynamical properties of the stars present at the time, contributing to the formation of a thick disk, and also leading to a significant increase in the star formation rate of the host. This object is thus particularly suitable for understanding the early evolutionary history of the Milky Way. It is also an ideal candidate for re-simulation with much higher resolution as this would allow addressing a plethora of interesting questions such as, for example, the specific distribution of dark matter near the Sun.

description: Abstract: Liquid crystalline elastomers (LCE) undergo reversible shape changes in response to stimuli, which enables a wide range of smart applications, in soft robotics, adhesive systems or biomedical medical devices. In this study, we introduce a new dynamic covalent chemistry based on siloxane equilibrium exchange into the LCE to enable processing (director alignment, remolding, and welding). Unlike the traditional siloxane based LCE, which were produced by reaction schemes with irreversible bonds (e.g. hydrosilylation), here we use a much more robust reaction (thiol-acrylate/thiol-ene ‘double-click’ chemistry) to obtain highly uniform dynamically crosslinked networks. Combining the siloxane crosslinker with click chemistry produces exchangeable LCE (xLCE) with tunable properties, low glass transition (−30 °C), controllable nematic to isotropic transition (33 to 70 °C), and a very high vitrification temperature (up to 250 °C). Accordingly, this class of dynamically crosslinked xLCE shows unprecedented thermal stability within the working temperature range (−50 to 140 °C), over many thermal actuation cycles without any creep. Finally, multiple xLCE sharing the same siloxane exchangeable bonds can be welded into single continuous structures to allow for composite materials that sequentially and reversibly undergo multiple phase transformations in different sections of the sample.

description: In this work, we use an extension of the quantization condition, given in Ref. [1], to numerically explore the finite-volume spectrum of three relativistic particles, in the case that two-particle subsets are either resonant or bound. The original form of the relativistic three-particle quantization condition was derived under a technical assumption on the two-particle K matrix that required the absence of two-particle bound states or narrow two-particle resonances. Here we describe how this restriction can be lifted in a simple way using the freedom in the definition of the K-matrix-like quantity that enters the quantization condition. With this in hand, we extend previous numerical studies of the quantization condition to explore the finite-volume signature for a variety of two- and three-particle interactions. We determine the spectrum for parameters such that the system contains both dimers (two-particle bound states) and one or more trimers (in which all three particles are bound), and also for cases where the two-particle subchannel is resonant. We also show how the quantization condition provides a tool for determining infinite-volume dimer-particle scattering amplitudes for energies below the dimer breakup. We illustrate this for a series of examples, including one that parallels physical deuteron-nucleon scattering. All calculations presented here are restricted to the case of three identical scalar particles.

description: Abstract: Objective: To evaluate the utility of a new robot-assisted surgical system (the Versius Surgical System, CMR Surgical, Cambridge, UK) for use in minimal access general and colorectal surgery, in a preclinical setting. Summary background data: Robot-assisted laparoscopy has been developed to overcome some of the important limitations of conventional laparoscopy. The new system is designed to assist surgeons in performing minimal access surgery and overcome some of the challenges associated with currently available surgical robots. Methods: Cadaveric sessions were conducted to evaluate the ability of the system to provide adequate surgical access and reach required to complete a range of general and colorectal procedures. Port and bedside unit positions were recorded, and surgical access and reach were evaluated by the lead surgeon using a visual analogue scale. A live animal (porcine) model was used to assess the surgical device’s safety in performing cholecystectomy or small bowel enterotomy. Results: Nine types of procedure were performed in cadavers by nine lead surgeons; 35/38 procedures were completed successfully. The positioning of ports and bedside units reflected the lead surgeons’ preferred laparoscopic set-up and enabled good surgical access and reach. Cholecystectomy (n = 6) and small bowel enterotomy (n = 5) procedures performed in pigs were all completed successfully by two surgeons. There were no device-related intra-operative complications. Conclusions: This preclinical study of a new robot-assisted surgical system for minimal access general and colorectal surgery demonstrated the safety and effectiveness of the system in cadaver and porcine models. Further studies are required to assess its clinical utility.

Spectrum-wide quantum criticality at the surface of class AIII topological phases: An "energy stack" of integer quantum Hall plateau transitions

description: In the absence of spin-orbit coupling, the conventional dogma of Anderson localization asserts that all states localize in two dimensions, with a glaring exception: the quantum Hall plateau transition (QHPT). In that case, the localization length diverges and interference-induced quantum-critical spatial fluctuations appear at all length scales. Normally QHPT states occur only at isolated energies; accessing them therefore requires fine-tuning of the electron density or magnetic field. In this paper we show that QHPT states can be realized throughout an energy continuum, i.e. as an "energy stack" of critical states wherein each state in the stack exhibits QHPT phenomenology. The stacking occurs without fine-tuning at the surface of a class AIII topological phase, where it is protected by U(1) and (anomalous) chiral or time-reversal symmetries. Spectrum-wide criticality is diagnosed by comparing numerics to universal results for the longitudinal Landauer conductance and wave function multifractality at the QHPT. Results are obtained from an effective 2D surface field theory and from a bulk 3D lattice model. We demonstrate that the stacking of quantum-critical QHPT states is a robust phenomenon that occurs for AIII topological phases with both odd and even winding numbers. The latter conclusion may have important implications for the still poorly-understood logarithmic conformal field theory believed to describe the QHPT.

description: We use the theory of motivic integration for singular spaces to give a characterization of minimal log discrepencies in terms of the codimension of certain subsets of spaces of arcs. This is done for arbitrary pairs $(X,Y)$, with $X$ normal and Q-Gorenstein. As a first application, we prove a precise version of Inversion of Adjunction, in the case when the ambient variety is smooth. Another application concerns the semicontinuity of minimal log discrepancies on smooth varieties.

description: Abstract: The non-smooth, jerky movements of microstructures under external forcing in minerals are explained by avalanche theory in this review. External stress or internal deformations by impurities and electric fields modify microstructures by typical pattern formations. Very common are the collapse of holes, the movement of twin boundaries and the crushing of biominerals. These three cases are used to demonstrate that they follow very similar time dependences, as predicted by avalanche theories. The experimental observation method described in this review is the acoustic emission spectroscopy (AE) although other methods are referenced. The overarching properties in these studies is that the probability to observe an avalanche jerk J is a power law distributed P(J) ~ J−ε where ε is the energy exponent (in simple mean field theory: ε = 1.33 or ε = 1.66). This power law implies that the dynamic pattern formation covers a large range (several decades) of energies, lengths and times. Other scaling properties are briefly discussed. The generated patterns have high fractal dimensions and display great complexity.
