description: We present a new method for deriving cosmological constraints based on the evolution of the baryon mass function of galaxy clusters, and implement it using 17 distant clusters from our 160deg2 ROSAT survey. The method uses the cluster baryon mass as a proxy for the total mass, thereby avoiding the large uncertainties of the M_tot-T or M_tot-L_X relations used in all previous studies. Instead, we rely on a well-founded assumption that the M_b/M_tot ratio is a universal quantity, which should result in a much smaller systematic uncertainty. Taking advantage of direct and accurate Chandra measurements of the gas masses for distant clusters, we find strong evolution of the baryon mass function between z>0.4 and the present. The observed evolution defines a narrow band in the Omega_m-Lambda plane, Omega_m + 0.23Lambda = 0.41+-0.10 at 68% confidence, which intersects with constraints from the Cosmic Microwave Background and supernovae Ia near Omega_m=0.3 and Lambda=0.7.

description: One-zone models constructed to match observed stellar abundance patterns have been used extensively to constrain the sites of nucleosynthesis with sophisticated libraries of stellar evolution and stellar yields. The metal mixing included in these models is usually highly simplified, although it is likely to be a significant driver of abundance evolution. In this work we use high-resolution hydrodynamics simulations to investigate how metals from individual enrichment events with varying source energies $E_{\rm ej}$ mix throughout the multi-phase interstellar medium (ISM) of a low-mass ($M_{\rm gas}=2\times 10^{6}$~M$_{\odot}$), low-metallicity, isolated dwarf galaxy. These events correspond to the characteristic energies of both common and exotic astrophysical sites of nucleosynthesis, including: asymptotic giant branch winds ($E_{\rm ej}\sim$10$^{46}$~erg), neutron star-neutron star mergers ($E_{\rm ej}\sim$10$^{49}$~erg), supernovae ($E_{\rm ej}\sim$10$^{51}$~erg), and hypernovae ($E_{\rm ej}\sim$10$^{52}$~erg). We find the mixing timescales for individual enrichment sources in our dwarf galaxy to be long (100~Myr--1~Gyr), with a clear trend of increasing homogeneity for the more energetic events. Given these timescales, we conclude that the spatial distribution and frequency of events are important drivers of abundance homogeneity on large scales; rare, low $E_{\rm ej}$ events should be characterized by particularly broad abundance distributions. The source energy $E_{\rm ej}$ also correlates with the fraction of metals ejected in galactic winds, ranging anywhere from 60\% at the lowest energy to 95\% for hypernovae. We conclude by examining how the radial position, local ISM density, and global star formation rate influence these results.

Subjects: International Relations/Trade

description: International comparisons of market structure are complicated by a lack of comparable data. Although the U.S. Department of Commerce reports measures of industry concentration, they do not verify either the control of subsidiary firms or the possible multinational nature of their ownership nor are consistently based on sales. Other counties produce similar reports, but these studies are generally not comparable to U.S. values due, in part, to incompatible sector definitions. In addition, few government- sponsored studies provide firm-level detail or timely information. Furthermore, given the widespread multinational nature of many larger firms, an international analysis of ownership is necessary. This paper addresses the issues encountered in the construction of international market data from traditional financial report data and provides a set of methods for the comparison of measures of market concentration and industry diversity across countries. Using 1991 financial data, a firm level data set is constructed and used to compute comparable measures of market concentration and industry diversity for the U.S. and E.C. food processing industries.

description: The four A1-TO Gamma phonon frequencies in lithium tantalate are calculated in the frozen-phonon approach from first principles using the full-potential linearized augmented plane wave method. A good agreement with the experimental data available is found for all modes; reliable displacement pattern of different modes becomes available from the calculated eigenvectors. The Raman spectra recorded for A1 modes in LiNbO3 exhibit a counter-intuitive softening of the A1-TO3 mode frequency with respect to that measured in LiTaO3. We explain this behaviour by a comparatively harder oxygen rotation in LiTaO3 and discuss other differences in lattice dynamics of these two materials, namely a notably delocalization of Ta and Li contributions over more that one corresponding mode in LiTaO3, which is different from the situation in lithium niobate. The Li isotope shift is predicted in the calculation.

description: The objective of this paper is to present the structure of milk production in EU countries. The authors used data from Main Statistical Office to highlight the changes. The authors used descriptive and graphical methods to analyze the changes in EU milk production. The production of cow’s milk per capita in kg and milk yield in EU was analyzed. The authors also evaluated the production of selected dairy products. The biggest milk producers in EU are Germany, France, United Kingdom and Poland. The highest yields of milk per cow are achieved in 2011 in Denmark, Sweden and Spain. The highest butter production in 2012 was observed in: Germany (448 thous. t), France (427), Poland (200) and Ireland (145). The five countries with the highest cheese production in 2012 were: Germany (2071 thous. t), France (1922), Italy (1276) Holland (764) and Poland (685). The production of dry milk in 2012 was the highest in: France (214 thous. t), Netherlands (118), Germany (80), and Ireland (58). However, the production of dairy products in many European Union countries decreased in the period 2005-2012.
title: An Instrument in Comparative Oblivion? Women and the Guitar in Victorian London
Creators: name: Clarke, Sarah
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 2021

description: This thesis develops our knowledge of the guitar in Victorian England by focusing on amateur players. It demonstrates that the instrument did not fall into the oblivion claimed in the ninth edition of the Encyclopædia Britannica of 1880. Two areas of investigation are given providing sufficient evidence that interest in the instrument was maintained throughout this era. A survey of teachers, including anonymous advertisers and governesses, demonstrates that tuition continued throughout the period. Some lowering of interest is evident following the great popularity of the instrument in the 1830s but a renaissance occurred in the last two decades of the century. The eighty English method books studied confirm this finding. Not only were new books published as the century progressed but evidence shows that earlier books continued to be available from publishers. Research in these areas throws light on the identity of the amateur players. Whilst some pupils were men, the majority were almost certainly women or girls. The costs of learning suggest that many of them would have been from wealthier classes in the early years of the century and would have started learning the instrument after having first learnt the piano. In the later years of the century there was a wider social base of players in the expanding middle class and there was less evidence that students already possessed keyboard skills. Two case studies conclude the thesis giving examples of aristocratic amateurs; the first illustrates the guitar in the early Victorian years where it was enjoyed privately in a country house and the second demonstrates how, in later years, amateurs used the instrument in ensembles and took it into public places for charity events.

description: In the framework of the $k_T$-factorization, the prompt production of $η_c$ mesons at the LHC conditions is studied. Our consideration is based on the off-shell amplitudes for hard partonic subprocesses and on the nonrelativistic QCD (NRQCD) formalism for the formation of bound states. We try two latest parametrizations for noncollinear, or transverse momentum dependent (TMD) gluon densities derived from the Catani-Ciafaloni-Fiorani-Marchesini (CCFM) equation. We use the values of the nonperturbative matrix elements obtained from a combined fit of the $η_c$ and $J/ψ$ differential cross sections. Finally, we show an universal set of parameters that provides a reasonable simultaneous description for all of the available data on the prompt $J/ψ$ and $η_c$ production at the LHC.

description: Spectroscopy is a fundamental tool in science which consists in studying the response of a system as a function of frequency. Among its many applications in Physics, Biology, Chemistry and other fields, the possibility of identifying objects and structures through their emission spectra is remarkable and incredibly useful. In this paper we apply the spectroscopy idea to a numerically simulated hydrodynamical flow, with the goal of developing a new, non-invasive flow measurement technique. Our focus lies on an irrotational draining vortex, which can be seen, under specific conditions, as the analogue of a rotating black hole (historically named a dumb hole). This paper is a development of a recent experiment that suggests that irrotational vortices and rotating black holes share a common relaxation process, known as the ringdown phase. We apply techniques borrowed from black hole physics to identify vortex flows from their characteristic spectrum emitted during this ringdown phase. We believe that this technique is a new facet of the fluid-gravity analogy and constitutes a promising way to investigate experimentally vortex flows in fluids and superfluids alike.

description: The aim of the research was to indicate assets related to the export of dairy products. This was addressed to milk producers, co-operatives and bankers influencing the level of milk prices - after the elimination of the quota system and an indication of desirable investment destinations. The study was based on USDA data for the period 2005-2014. Average purchase prices, expressed in USD, were used for the analysis of the US market. The assumed average annual exchange rate of EUR/USD, calculated on the basis of exchange rates on the interbank market, was applied. Eurostat data were also used; the weight average price was the volume of production in the 25 countries of the EU (new EU countries were omitted). The study used the multiple regression method, t and F tests and coefficients of correlation, regression and determination. It was established that after the removal of the quota system, milk prices may rise due to an increase of prices and export value of hard cheeses traded internationally, especially cheddar cheese and skimmed milk powder.

A Local One-Zone Model of MHD Turbulence in Dwarf Nova Disks

Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The evolution of the magnetorotational instability (MRI) during the transition from outburst to quiescence in a dwarf nova disk is investigated using three-dimensional MHD simulations. The shearing box approximation is adopted for the analysis, so that the efficiency of angular momentum transport is studied in a small local patch of the disk: this is usually referred as to a one-zone model. To take account of the low ionization fraction of the disk, the induction equation includes both ohmic dissipation and the Hall effect. We induce a transition from outburst to quiescence by an instantaneous decrease of the temperature. The evolution of the MRI during the transition is found to be very sensitive to the temperature of the quiescent disk. As long as the temperature is higher than a critical value of about 2000 K, MHD turbulence and angular momentum transport is sustained by the MRI. However, MHD turbulence dies away within an orbital time if the temperature falls below this critical value. In this case, the stress drops off by more than 2 orders of magnitude, and is dominated by the Reynolds stress associated with the remnant motions from the outburst. The critical temperature depends slightly on the distance from the central star and the local density of the disk.

Autism
Self-injury
Suicidality

description: Abstract: Background: Autistic individuals without intellectual disability are at heightened risk of self-injury, and appear to engage in it for similar reasons as non-autistic people. A wide divergence of autistic perspectives on self-injury, including those who frame it as a helpful coping mechanism, motivate investigating the link between self-injury, suicide ideation, and attempts which has been reported in typically developing individuals. Method: One hundred three autistic participants completed the Non-Suicidal Self-Injury Assessment Tool (NSSI-AT), the Suicide Behaviors Questionnaire (SBQ-R), and the Interpersonal Social Evaluation List (ISEL-12) across two online studies. Logistic regression was conducted to predict self-harming status via responses to questions on suicidality, and to predict whether certain self-injurious behaviors, including cutting, were especially associated with suicide ideation and attempts. Non-parametric correlation analysis examined relationships between suicide ideation/attempts and other variables that might characterize self-harmers especially at risk of suicidality. These included perceived access to social support, purposes or reasons for self-injury, the number of different self-injurious behaviors engaged in, the duration and lifetime incidence of self-injury, and the individual’s feelings about their self-injury. Results: While self-injuring status was significantly predicted by responses to a question on suicide ideation and attempts, there was no relationship between suicide ideation/attempts and a participant’s personal feelings about their self-injury. The method of cutting was also predicted by suicide ideation and attempts, though other methods common in autistic people were at borderline significance. Use of self-injury for the regulation of low-energy emotional states like depression, for self-punishment or deterrence from suicide, and for sensory stimulation, was associated with suicide ideation and attempts, as was the number of self-injurious behaviors engaged in. There was no significant relationship between suicide ideation/attempts and the duration and lifetime incidence of self-injury or social support. Conclusions: These preliminary data suggest that while individuals might frame their self-injury as a positive or neutral thing, there remains a concerning relationship between self-injury and suicidality which exists regardless of individual feelings on self-injury. This is consistent with the theoretical perspective that self-injury can be a “gateway” through which individuals acquire capability for lethal suicidal behaviors. The data highlight that particular methods (cutting) and reasons for self-injury may be of significant concern, but this information, which might be of extreme value for clinicians, requires further investigation and validation.

description: We study to what extent linguistic differences in grammatical aspect systems and verb lexicalisation patterns of Dutch and mandarin Chinese affect how speakers conceptualise the path of motion in motion events, using description and memory tasks. We hypothesised that speakers of the two languages would show different preferences towards the selection of endpoint-, trajectory- or location-information in Endpoint-oriented (not reached) events, whilst showing a similar bias towards encoding endpoints in Endpoint-reached events. Our findings show that (1) groups did not differ in endpoint encoding and memory for both event types; (2) Dutch speakers conceptualised Endpoint-oriented motion focusing on the trajectory, whereas Chinese speakers focused on the location of the moving entity. In addition, we report detailed linguistic patterns of how grammatical aspect, verb semantics and adjuncts containing path-information are combined in the two languages. Results are discussed in relation to typologies of motion expression and event cognition theory.

description: We introduce a method, based on an exact calculation of the effective action at large N, to bridge the gap between mean field theory and renormalization in complex systems. We apply it to a d-dimensional manifold in a random potential for large embedding space dimension N. This yields a functional renormalization group equation valid for any d, which contains both the O(epsilon=4-d) results of Balents-Fisher and some of the non-trivial results of the Mezard-Parisi solution thus shedding light on both. Corrections are computed at order O(1/N). Applications to the problems of KPZ, random field and mode coupling in glasses are mentioned.
Quantification of predictive uncertainty in hydrological modelling by harnessing the wisdom of the crowd: A large-sample experiment at monthly timescale

description: Predictive hydrological uncertainty can be quantified by using ensemble methods. If properly formulated, these methods can offer improved predictive performance by combining multiple predictions. In this work, we use 50-year-long monthly time series observed in 270 catchments in the United States to explore the performances provided by an ensemble learning post-processing methodology for issuing probabilistic hydrological predictions. This methodology allows the utilization of flexible quantile regression models for exploiting information about the hydrological model's error. Its key differences with respect to basic two-stage hydrological post-processing methodologies using the same type of regression models are that (a) instead of a single point hydrological prediction it generates a large number of "sister predictions" (yet using a single hydrological model), and that (b) it relies on the concept of combining probabilistic predictions via simple quantile averaging. A major hydrological modelling challenge is obtaining probabilistic predictions that are simultaneously reliable and associated to prediction bands that are as narrow as possible; therefore, we assess both these desired properties of the predictions by computing their coverage probabilities, average widths and average interval scores. The results confirm the usefulness of the proposed methodology and its larger robustness with respect to basic two-stage post-processing methodologies. Finally, this methodology is empirically proven to harness the "wisdom of the crowd" in terms of average interval score, i.e., the average of the individual predictions combined by this methodology scores no worse -- usually better -- than the average of the scores of the individual predictions.

description: The purpose of the article was to present the specifics of indirect taxes in agricultural activities in Poland, the analysis of the VAT rates in the European Union and the presentation of survey results relating to indirect taxes in agriculture. Indirect taxes, i.e. VAT and excise tax, cause delamination of the market prices of goods and services. In the agricultural activity what is crucial are VAT rates spread between the base rate and the reduced rate relating to agricultural production. The resulting difference often causes excess input VAT and results in an obtained tax return for the farmer. The farmer (depending on the method of VAT) has the possibility to receive a lump sum refund of VAT. In addition, the farmer has the opportunity to receive lump-sum refunds on the excise tax, if he purchases fuel for agricultural purposes. Specific tax solutions for agriculture, related to indirect taxes, are tax preferences and substantially affect investment decisions farms. The author of the article used statistical data from the European Commission’s report VAT rates applied in the Member States of the European Community, Situation at 1st January 2015 and the results of surveys conducted among farms of Middle Pomerania in Poland.

description: Globalization has opened the market for small and medium size enterprises. However, global corporations have become the largest competitors for local companies. The key actors of rural economies are small and medium size enterprises. The condition of rural economies is significant in connection with the condition of local firms and their local competitiveness. This paper summarizes the most important results and conclusions of research into the North-Balaton touristic region - where a local currency was issued some years ago. It examines the attitudes of the entrepreneurs participating in a community currency system, and the preferences of habitants accepting the vouchers of a community currency as part of their wages and using them for purchasing goods and services. The most relevant conclusion is that most of the inhabitants do not prefer the local currency, and only a small portion of the inhabitants think that they contribute to the growth of the local economy by using the local currency. Many entrepreneurs are not interested in accepting the local currency because of the limited ability of utilization as well as its high transaction cost.

description: The field research was conducted in 2009-2012 years at the Agricultural Research Station the Institute of Soil Science and Plant Cultivation – State Research Institute in Grabów, on grey-brown podsolic soil (pgm.gl) in the ecological system. The study concerned 4 terms of cutting of uneaten herbage in the sward mixture legume-grass, grazed by cows: 1 – ungrazed herbage left unmowed, 2 – cutting of uneaten herbage after the 1st grazing event, 3 – cutting uneaten herbage after the last grazing event, 4 – cutting uneaten herbage after each grazing event. The aim of the research was to determine the optimal frequency of cutting of uneaten herbage in production, quality and economical terms. The results showed that a single cutting of uneaten herbage after the last grazing event (object 3.) was the best solution. The highest share of the direct costs were fertilizers and fuel.

description: In this work we investigate charge transport in one-dimensional (1D) insulators via semi-classical and perturbative renormalization group (RG) methods. We consider the problem of electron-electron, electron-phonon and electron-two-level system interactions. We show that non-linear collective modes such as polarons and solitons are reponsible for transport. We find a new excitation in the Mott insulator: the polaronic soliton. We discuss the differences between band and Mott insulators in terms of their spin spectrum and obtain the charge and spin gaps in each one of these systems. We show that electron-electron interactions provide strong renormalizations of the energy scales in the problem.

description: The annihilation of cosmic positrons ($e^+$) with electrons in the interstellar medium (ISM) results in the strongest persistent gamma-ray line signal in the sky. For 50 years, this 511 keV emission has puzzled observers and theoreticians. A key issue for understanding $e^+$-astrophysics is found in cosmic-ray propagation, especially at low kinetic energies (< 10 MeV). We want to shed light on how $e^+$s propagate and the resulting morphology of the emission. We approach this "positron puzzle" by inferring kinematic information of the 511 keV line in the inner radian of the Galaxy. This constrains propagation scenarios and source populations. By dissecting the 511 keV emission as measured with INTEGRAL/SPI, we derive spectra for individual regions in the sky. The centroid energies are converted into Doppler-shifts, representing the line-of-sight velocity along different longitudes. This results in a longitude-velocity diagram of $e^+$-annihilation. We also determine Doppler-broadenings to study annihilation conditions as they vary across the Galaxy. We find line-of-sight velocities in the 511 keV line that are consistent with zero, as well as with galactic rotation from CO measurements, and measurements of radioactive Al-26. The velocity gradient in the inner 60 deg is determined to be $4\pm6$ km/s/deg. The 511 keV line width is constant as a function of longitude at $2.43\pm0.14$ keV. The positronium fraction is found to be 1.0 along the galactic plane. The weak signals in the disk leave open the question whether $e^+$-annihilation is associated with the high velocities seen in Al-26 or rather with ordinarily rotating components of the Galaxy's ISM. We confirm previous results that $e^+$s are slowed down to the 10 eV energy scale before annihilation, and constrain bulk Doppler-broadening contributions to <1.25 keV. Consequently, the true annihilation conditions remain unclear.

description: Aim: This study aimed to examine the risk factors for relaparotomy after cesarean section (RLACS) due to bleeding. Material and methods: In this retrospective descriptive case-control study, women who underwent RLACS only for bleeding between 2008 and 2019 at a single tertiary center were examined (the center oversees approximately 25,000 deliveries per year). Maternal characteristics, postoperative findings, and surgical features were compared with a control group that included non-complicated cesarean sections (CS). Multivariable logistic regression analysis was used to identify the risk factors for relaparotomy. Results: Relaparotomy complicated 0.07% (n = 40) of CS during the study period (n = 58,095). When compared with the control group, age, parity, estimated blood loss (EBL), postoperative pulse, blood replacement, and length of hospital stay were statistically higher in patients undergoing relaparotomy, whereas their postoperative systolic and diastolic blood pressure were found to be low. A history of pelvic surgery, the need for intensive care, and complications were more frequent in patients undergoing relaparotomy. When CSs were grouped according to 8-h periods of the day, it emerged that relaparotomies were mostly performed on the patients who underwent CS after working hours. Time interval during the day of the CS [OR: 2.59 (1.10–6.12)] and high postoperative pulse rate [OR: 1.58 (1.28–1.96)] were found to be independent risk indicators for RLACS (AUC: 0.97). Conclusions: Monitoring vital signs in the postoperative period and increasing the number of physicians and nurses during off-hours in hospitals working with on-call duty procedures as determined by the Ministry of Health will reduce the incidence rate of relaparotomy, maternal morbidity, and mortality due to hemorrhage.
Quantification of predictive uncertainty in hydrological modelling by harnessing the wisdom of the crowd: Methodology development and investigation using toy models

description: We introduce an ensemble learning post-processing methodology for probabilistic hydrological modelling. This methodology generates numerous point predictions by applying a single hydrological model, yet with different parameter values drawn from the respective simulated posterior distribution. We call these predictions "sister predictions". Each sister prediction extending in the period of interest is converted into a probabilistic prediction using information about the hydrological model's errors. This information is obtained from a preceding period for which observations are available, and is exploited using a flexible quantile regression model. All probabilistic predictions are finally combined via simple quantile averaging to produce the output probabilistic prediction. The idea is inspired by the ensemble learning methods originating from the machine learning literature. The proposed methodology offers larger robustness in performance than basic post-processing methodologies using a single hydrological point prediction. It is also empirically proven to "harness the wisdom of the crowd" in terms of average interval score, i.e., the obtained quantile predictions score no worse -- usually better -- than the average score of the combined individual predictions. This proof is provided within toy examples, which can be used for gaining insight on how the methodology works and under which conditions it can optimally convert point hydrological predictions to probabilistic ones. A large-scale hydrological application is made in a companion paper.

description: Abstract: Over the past decades, there have been huge advances in understanding cellular responses to ionising radiation (IR) and DNA damage. These studies, however, were mostly executed with cell lines and mice using single or multiple acute doses of radiation. Hence, relatively little is known about how continuous exposure to low dose ionising radiation affects normal cells and organisms, even though our cells are constantly exposed to low levels of radiation. We addressed this issue by examining the consequences of exposing human primary cells to continuous ionising γ-radiation delivered at 6–20 mGy/h. Although these dose rates are estimated to inflict fewer than a single DNA double-strand break (DSB) per hour per cell, they still caused dose-dependent reductions in cell proliferation and increased cellular senescence. We concomitantly observed histone protein levels to reduce by up to 40%, which in contrast to previous observations, was not mainly due to protein degradation but instead correlated with reduced histone gene expression. Histone reductions were accompanied by enlarged nuclear size paralleled by an increase in global transcription, including that of pro-inflammatory genes. Thus, chronic irradiation, even at low dose-rates, can induce cell senescence and alter gene expression via a hitherto uncharacterised epigenetic route. These features of chronic radiation represent a new aspect of radiation biology.
