description: This paper addresses adaptive radar detection of dim moving targets. To circumvent range migration, the detection problem is formulated as a multiple hypothesis test and solved applying model order selection rules which allow to estimate the "position" of the target within the CPI and eventually detect it. The performance analysis proves the effectiveness of the proposed approach also in comparison to existing alternatives.

description: The economic crisis in Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union continues to evoke calls for Western assistance. Many observers question, however, whether a new Marshall Plan would be productive today. Answering this question requires first understanding what rendered Marshall aid so effective after World War II. This paper therefore reviews recent research on the effects of the Marshall Plan. It then considers four options for Western assistance to the East: a Marshall Plan on the scale of 1948-51, aid sufficient to fund a social safety net, aid sufficient to establish a multilateral clearing mechanism, and the provision of technical assistance.
Model Trending Real Exchange Rates

Subjects: subject: Research Methods/ Statistical Methods

subject: real interest differential
subject: nontradables

description: The multilateral real exchange rates of major industrial countries often contain deterministic time trends. This note develops a simple stochastic model of a small open economy with a deterministically trending real exchange rate. Real exchange rate trends are caused by differential productivity growth in tradables and nontradables. Although the model assumes complete price flexibility, it can produce a correlation between the real exchange rate and the international real interest-rate differential similar to the one that arises in sticky-price overshooting models dominated by monetary shocks.

description: The ``band-structure'' of a disordered stripe array is computed and compared, at a qualitative level, to angle resolved photoemission experiments on the cuprate high temperature superconductors. The low-energy states are found to be strongly localized transverse to the stripe direction, so the electron dynamics is strictly one-dimensional (along the stripe). Despite this, aspects of the two dimensional band-structure Fermi surface are still vividly apparent.

description: As agricultural policies continue to evolve away from traditional modes of support towards policies based upon or primarily influencing the market for land, it has become necessary to reconsider the way such policies are reflected in models. We demonstrate how the structure of land supply is constructed in the Policy Evaluation Model (PEM), and illustrate some potential options for representing land or historical entitlement-based programs using this model. Despite some basic similarities, the different choices for policy representation lead to significantly different model results. No policy may be considered to be entirely non-distorting of production decisions.

description: There are strong reasons to believe that global symmetries of quantum theories cannot be exact in the presence of gravity. While this has been argued at the qualitative level, establishing a quantitative statement is more challenging. In this work we take new steps towards quantifying symmetry violation in EFTs with gravity. First, we evaluate global charge violation by microscopic black holes present in a thermal system, which represents an irreducible, universal effect at finite temperature. Second, based on general QFT considerations, we propose that local symmetry-violating processes should be faster than black hole-induced processes at any sub-Planckian temperature. Such a proposal can be seen as part of the "swampland" program to constrain EFTs emerging from quantum gravity. Considering an EFT perspective, we formulate a conjecture which requires the existence of operators violating global symmetry and places quantitative bounds on them. We study the interplay of our conjecture with emergent symmetries in QFT. In models where gauged U(1)'s enforce accidental symmetries, we find that constraints from the Weak Gravity Conjecture can ensure that our conjecture is satisfied. We also study the consistency of the conjecture with QFT models of emergent symmetries such as extradimensional localization, the Froggatt-Nielsen mechanism, and the clockwork mechanism.

description: The photon asymmetry in the reaction p(\vecγ,π^{0})p close to threshold has been measured for the first time with the photon spectrometer TAPS using linearly polarized photons from the tagged-photon facility at the Mainz Microtron MAMI. The total and differential cross sections were also measured simultaneously with the photon asymmetry. This allowed determination of the S-wave and all three P-wave amplitudes. The low-energy theorems based on the parameter-free third-order calculations of heavy-baryon chiral perturbation theory for P1 and P2 agree with the experimental values.

description: Abstract: The abrupt nature of warming events recorded in Greenland ice-cores during the last glacial has generated much debate over their underlying mechanisms. Here, we present joint marine and terrestrial analyses from the Portuguese Margin, showing a succession of cold stadials and warm interstadials over the interval 35–57 ka. Heinrich stadials 4 and 5 contain considerable structure, with a short transitional phase leading to an interval of maximum cooling and aridity, followed by slowly increasing sea-surface temperatures and moisture availability. A climate model experiment reproduces the changes in western Iberia during the final part of Heinrich stadial 4 as a result of the gradual recovery of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation. What emerges is that Greenland ice-core records do not provide a unique template for warming events, which involved the operation of both fast and slow components of the coupled atmosphere–ocean–sea-ice system, producing adjustments over a range of timescales.
Regulating Pesticides in Greek Agriculture

Subjects: subject: Agricultural and Food Policy

subject: cointegration

description: The objective of this paper is to estimate the short run and long run own- price elasticity of pesticide demand in Greece in a profit maximization context. A single equation approach is adopted and the dynamic aspects of pesticide demand are captured by the use of cointegration techniques. The policy implications of the empirical findings concern the price responsiveness of pesticide demand in Greece to potential changes in pesticide price due to the imposition of an environmental tax on that polluting input. The estimated short run elasticity of pesticide demand is -0.8 whereas the long run estimate is slightly larger, approximately -0.9. The short run pesticide elasticity with respect to output price is 1.58 and the long run 1.75 both highly elastic estimates. The reduction of output prices may thus be expected to bring about a larger reduction in pesticide use than the imposition of a tax on that input.

description: Abstract: Aldehyde dehydrogenase class 3, encoded by ADH5 in humans, catalyzes the glutathione dependent detoxification of formaldehyde. Here we show that ADH5 deficient cells turn over formaldehyde using alternative pathways starting from the reaction of formaldehyde with free amino acids. When mammalian cells are exposed to formaldehyde, the levels of the reaction products of formaldehyde with the amino acids cysteine and histidine - timonacic and spinacine - are increased. These reactions take place spontaneously and the formation of timonacic is reversible. The levels of timonacic are higher in the plasma of Adh5−/− mice relative to controls and they are further increased upon administration of methanol. We conclude that mammals possess pathways of cysteine and histidine dependent formaldehyde metabolism and that timonacic is a formaldehyde reservoir.

Dispersion Interaction between Two Hydrogen Atoms in a Static Electric Field

description: We consider the dispersion interaction between two ground-state hydrogen atoms, interacting with the quantum electromagnetic field in the vacuum state, in the presence of an external static electric field, both in the nonretarded and in the retarded Casimir-Polder regime. We show that the presence of the external field strongly modifies the dispersion interaction between the atoms, changing its space dependence. Moreover, we find that, for specific geometrical configurations of the two atoms with respect to the external field and/or the relative orientation of the fields acting on the two atoms, it is possible to change the character of the dispersion force, turning it from attractive to repulsive, or even make it vanishing. This new finding clearly shows the possibility to control and tailor interatomic dispersion interactions through external actions. By a numerical estimate of the field-modified interaction, we show that at typical interatomic distances the change of the interaction's strength can match or even outmatch the unperturbed interaction; this can be obtained for values of the external field that can be currently achieved in the laboratory, and sufficiently weak to be taken into account perturbatively.

description: It is suggested that p-d hybridization contributes significantly to the hole binding energy E_b of Mn acceptors in III-V compounds, leading in an extreme case to the formation of Zhang-Rice-like small magnetic polarons. The model explains both strong increase of E_b and evolution of Mn spin-resonance spectrum with the magnitude of valence-band offsets. For such a structure of Mn impurity in III-V materials, possible models accounting for the recently determined Curie temperature of about 940 K in a compensated Ga(0.91)Mn(0.09)N are discussed.

description: The van-der-Waals stacking technique enables the fabrication of heterostructures, where two conducting layers are atomically close. In this case, the finite layer thickness matters for the interlayer electrostatic coupling. Here we investigate the electrostatic coupling of two graphene layers, twisted by 22 degrees such that the layers are decoupled by the huge momentum mismatch between the K and K' points of the two layers. We observe a splitting of the zero-density lines of the two layers with increasing interlayer energy difference. This splitting is given by the ratio of single-layer quantum capacitance over interlayer capacitance C and is therefore suited to extract C. We explain the large observed value of C by considering the finite dielectric thickness d of each graphene layer and determine d=2.6 Angstrom. In a second experiment we map out the entire density range with a Fabry-Pérot resonator. We can precisely measure the Fermi-wavelength in each layer, showing that the layers are decoupled. We find that the Fermi wavelength exceeds 600nm at the lowest densities and can differ by an order of magnitude between the upper and lower layer. These findings are reproduced using tight-binding calculations.

description: Abstract: Background: Ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) is a non-invasive form of early breast cancer, with a poorly understood natural history of invasive transformation. Necrosis is a well-recognized adverse prognostic feature of DCIS, and non-invasive detection of its presence and spatial extent could provide information not obtainable by biopsy. We describe here imaging of the distribution and extent of comedo-type necrosis in a model of human DCIS using C2Am, an imaging agent that binds to the phosphatidylserine exposed by necrotic cells. Methods: We used an established xenograft model of human DCIS that mimics the histopathological features of the disease. Planar near-infrared and optoacoustic imaging, using fluorescently labeled C2Am, were used to image non-invasively the presence and extent of lesion necrosis. Results: C2Am showed specific and sensitive binding to necrotic areas in DCIS tissue, detectable both in vivo and ex vivo. The imaging signal generated in vivo using near-infrared (NIR) fluorescence imaging was up to 6-fold higher in DCIS lesions than in surrounding fat pad or skin tissue. There was a correlation between the C2Am NIR fluorescence (Pearson R = 0.783, P = 0.0125) and optoacoustic signals (R > 0.875, P < 0.022) in the DCIS lesions in vivo and the corresponding levels of cell death detected histologically. Conclusions: C2Am is a targeted multi-modal imaging agent that could complement current anatomical imaging methods for detecting DCIS. Imaging the presence and spatial extent of necrosis may give better prognostic information than that obtained by biopsy alone.

description: Abstract: Entangled light emitting diodes based on semiconductor quantum dots are promising devices for security sensitive quantum network applications, thanks to their natural lack of multi photon-pair generation. Apart from telecom wavelength emission, network integrability of these sources ideally requires electrical operation for deployment in compact systems in the field. For multiplexing of entangled photons with classical data traffic, emission in the telecom O-band and tuneability to the nearest wavelength channel in compliance with coarse wavelength division multiplexing standards (20 nm channel spacing) is highly desirable. Here we show a fully electrically operated telecom entangled light emitting diode with wavelength tuneability of more than 25 nm, deployed in an installed fibre network. With the source tuned to 1310.00 nm, we demonstrate multiplexing of true single entangled photons with classical data traffic and achieve entanglement fidelities above 94% on an installed fibre in a city.

Intersecting brane world models from D8-branes on (T^2 x T^4/Z_3)/Omega R_1 type IIA orientifolds

description: We present orientifold models of type IIA string theory with D8-branes compactified on a two torus times a four dimensional orbifold. The orientifold group is chosen such that one coordinate of the two torus is reversed when applying worldsheet parity. RR tadpole cancellation requires D8-branes which wrap 1-cycles on the two torus and transform non-trivially under the orbifold group. These models are T-dual to orientifolds with D4-branes only which admit large volume compactifications. The intersections of the D8-branes are chosen in such a way that supersymmetry is broken in the open string sector and chiral fermions arise. Stability of the models is discussed in the context of NSNS tadpoles. Two examples with the SM gauge group and two left-right symmetric models are given.

However, oxygen is not enhanced in the ejecta; the Fe/O abundance ratio there is more than 5 times the solar ratio. Based on the relative positions of the blast wave shock and the contact discontinuity in the context of SNR evolutionary models, we determine a total ejecta mass of approximately 1.5 solar masses. Ejecta mass estimates based on emission measures derived from spectral fits are subject to considerable uncertainty due to lack of knowledge of the true contribution of hydrogen continuum emission. Maximal mass estimates, i.e., assuming no hydrogen, result in 1.5 solar masses of Fe and 0.24 solar masses of Si. Under the assumption that an equal quantity of hydrogen has been mixed into the ejecta, we estimate 0.8 solar masses of Fe and 0.12 solar masses of Si. These characteristics support the view that in DEM L71 we see Fe-rich ejecta from a Type Ia SN several thousand years after explosion.

description: Empirical findings from behavioural decision research suggest that individuals employ a range of strategies to construct their preferences when faced with multi-attribute choice problems. However, it is not well understood what information decision makers use when making a multi-attribute choice, and if training decision makers can improve multi-attribute choice quality. In this thesis, I adopted a process-tracing approach to evaluate preference construction processes in terms of quality in two behavioural experiments. Both studies involved a set of hypothetical choice problems, and utilised normative standards based on attribute range sensitivity as benchmark to compare against observed decision processes. Choice heuristics displayed efficiency and performed at least as good as strategies based on Multi-attribute Value Theory (MAVT). This result was observed consistently, independent of the prescriptive intervention stage, across experiments. MAVT-based strategies failed to unleash their theoretical potential. The study findings suggest that level of strategy execution had higher impact on choice quality than the sophistication of the selected strategy.

description: Abstract: Adjuvant systemic therapies are now routinely used following resection of stage III melanoma, however accurate prognostic information is needed to better stratify patients. We use differential expression analyses of primary tumours from 204 RNA-sequenced melanomas within a large adjuvant trial, identifying a 121 metastasis-associated gene signature. This signature strongly associated with progression-free (HR = 1.63, p = 5.24 × 10−5) and overall survival (HR = 1.61, p = 1.67 × 10−4), was validated in 175 regional lymph nodes metastasis as well as two externally ascertained datasets. The machine learning classification models trained using the signature genes performed significantly better in predicting metastases than models trained with clinical covariates (pAUROC = 7.03 × 10−4), or published prognostic signatures (pAUROC < 0.05). The signature score negatively correlated with measures of immune cell infiltration (ρ = −0.75, p < 2.2 × 10−16), with a higher score representing reduced lymphocyte infiltration and a higher 5-year risk of death in stage II melanoma. Our expression signature identifies melanoma patients at higher risk of metastases and warrants further evaluation in adjuvant clinical trials.

description: If in a supersymmetric model, the lightest chargino is nearly degenerate with the lightest neutralino, the former can decay into the latter alongwith a soft pion (or a lepton-neutrino pair). Near degeneracy of the chargino and neutralino masses can cause the other decay products (the pion or the lepton) to be almost invisible. Photon-photon colliders offer a possibility of clean detection of such an event through a hard photon tag.

description: Molybdenum disulfide nanoribbons with zigzag edges show ferromagnetic and metallic properties based on previous \emph{ab-initio} calculations. The investigation of the role of disorder on the magnetic properties is, however, still lacking due to the computational costs of these methods. In this work we fill this gap by studying the magnetic and electronic properties of several nanometer long MoS$_2$ zigzag nanoribbons using tight-binding and Hubbard Hamiltonians. Our results reveal that proper tight-binding parameters for the edge atoms are crucial to obtain quantitatively the metallic states and the magnetic properties of MoS$_2$ nanoribbons. With the help of the fine-tuned parameters, we perform large-scale calculations and predict the spin domain-wall energy along the edges, which is found to be significantly lower compared to that of the zigzag graphene nanoribbons. The tight-binding approach allows us to address the effect of edge disorder on the magnetic properties. Our results open the way for investigating electron-electron effects in realistic-size nanoribbon devices in MoS$_2$ and also provide valuable information for spintronic applications.

description: Labeling of genetically modified (GM) food products in the EU is considered to be the reason for the decline in the export of soybeans from the US to the EU. Debate about content labeling (free of GM ingredients/contains GM material) is an example of the importance attributed to labeling formats that affect choice. Labeling regulations currently act as an active import barrier to US export of potatoes, corn, and soybeans among other products. However, labeling of GM products can also be used to inform consumers about product benefits and could increase GM food acceptance rather than blocking it. In this study, we analyze the effectiveness of four different positioning tactics in inducing adoption using four new types of GM potatoes that vary in their benefits: improved taste; high-temperature, which reduces the risk of cancer; low-calorie that reduces the risk of diabetes and cardiovascular diseases; and antioxidant varieties, comparing them with traditionally grown potatoes. While it has been shown that consumers are willing to pay a price premium for genetically modified (GM) food products if such products are designed to enhance wellbeing, information on biotechnology’s capacity to reduce health risks is likely to reduce the acceptance rate. It is argued that information on lower risk may actually increase consumers’ accessibility to health hazards increasing the likelihood of rejecting upfront the new technology despite its advantages. Our results indicate that given the right positioning, the majority of consumers are willing to purchase GM foods that either reduce risk or increase benefits. While the acceptance of GM food was higher when the benefit was better taste, and lowest when it primed lower hazard of illness, more than 65% of consumers were willing to pay a price premium even for the less desirable positioning. Results and managerial implications are discussed,

description: In the context of aridification in Mediterranean regions, desiccation resistance and physiological plasticity will be key traits for the persistence of aquatic insects exposed to increasing desiccation stress. Control of cuticular transpiration through changes in the quantity and composition of epicuticular hydrocarbons (CHCs) is one of the main mechanisms of desiccation resistance in insects, but it remains largely unexplored in aquatic ones. We studied acclimation responses to desiccation in adults of two endemic water beetles from distant lineages living in Mediterranean intermittent saline streams: Enochrus jesusarribasi (Hydrophilidae) and Nebrioporus baeticus (Dytiscidae). Cuticular water loss and CHC composition were measured in specimens exposed to a prior non-lethal desiccation stress, allowed to recover and exposed to a subsequent desiccation treatment. E. jesusarribasi showed a beneficial acclimation response to desiccation: pre-desiccated individuals reduced cuticular water loss rate in a subsequent exposure by increasing the relative abundance of cuticular methyl-branched compounds, longer chain alkanes and branched alkanes. In contrast, N. baeticus lacked acclimation capacity for controlling water loss and therefore may have a lower physiological capacity to cope with increasing aridity. These results are relevant to understanding biochemical adaptations to drought stress in inland waters in an evolutionary and ecological context.

description: A new approach (called COBRA) for investigating double beta decay using CdTe (CdZnTe) semiconductor detectors is proposed. It follows the idea that source and detector are identical. This will allow simultaneous measurements of 5 $β^-β^-$ - and 4 $β^+β^+$ - emitters at once. Half-life limits for neutrinoless double beta decay of Cd-116 and Te-130 can be improved by more than one order of magnitude with respect to current limits and sensitivities on the effective Majorana neutrino mass of less than 1 eV can be obtained. Furthermore, for the first time a realistic chance of observing double electron capture processes exists. Additional searches for rare processes like the 4-fold forbidden Cd-113 $β$-decay, the electron capture of Te-123 and dark matter detection can be performed. The achievable limits are evaluated for 10 kg of such detectors and can be scaled accordingly towards higher detector masses because of the modular design of the proposed experiment.

description: The coexistence between genetically modified (GM) and non-GM based agricultural supply chains is an economic institution that defines rules of the games, the objectives of which are set more broadly than economic rationality and efficiency. Institution of coexistence covers the formal rules as well as informal constraints devoted principally to identity preservation and segregation, and the ways how they are imposed and enforced in the GM and non-GM based supply chains from agri-food sector. They applies to the dynamic process of formulation, selection and adaptation of behaviors and rules, which form the institutional orders in local, regional and international dimensions, under the circumstances of constant changes in the socio-economic systems. The paper is an attempt to describe the coexistence as an economic institution in the light of New Institutional Economics. Using the results of foresight technique it also examine how the Transatlantic Trade and Investment Partnership under negotiation between the European Union and the United States could re-define both legal regulations and market-based standards of coexistence. In the Delphi method panels participated stakeholders from both GM and non-GM based agri-food supply chains, who forecasted that the institution of coexistence will be re-defined by the rules that TTIP would set up.
