Sphaerophoria oleandri

description: Sphaerophoria oleandri Rondani, 1857
ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1857: 111 (key), 114 (description).
 TYPE LOCALITY: “ in Melita [Malta]”.
 TYPE MATERIAL: 2 ♂♂ (one of them is surely the holotype but is not labeled as such) (MZUF: Box 4) with the following labels: 1 ♂ (missing head and right hind-leg, abdomen partially eaten by dermestids, terminalia in a microvial pinned below specimen), Sphaerophoria Lep. Serv. / oleandri Schembri / 175 / Sphaerophoria oleandri Rnd., lectotype [incorrectly designated] designated Vockeroth, 71; 1 ♂, Sphaerophoria Lep. Serv. / oleandri Schembri / 175 / = Sphaerophoria rüppelli Wied., P. Goeldlin det. 1971.
 CURRENT STATUS: junior synonym of Sphaerophoria rueppelli (Wiedemann, 1830) (Peck 1988: 44).
 REMARKS: Rondani (1857: 114) described Sphaerophoria oleandri from a single male: “ unico exemplare masculo … invento a Doct. Schembri [single male specimen]”, received from Schembri, to whom he attributed the species name. Vockeroth (1971: 1632) incorrectly designated one of the two MZUF males as the lectotype. There are two males in the MZUF without any label indicating their type status. We are unable to single out the male upon which Rondani based his description. We leave the recognition of the holotype to a future specialist. There is a MZUF specimen (Box A) from “Insubria” [= Lombardy] and a MSNC male from “Parma”, neither of which are from the type locality.

Deflections of UHECRs in the Galactic magnetic field

Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We report results of the first comprehensive, high resolution study of the deflections of UHECRs using a realistic model of the Galactic magnetic field and extending to sufficiently low rigidities, R = E/Z = 10^18 V, to describe Fe in the UHE energy range or the mixed composition reported by the Pierre Auger Collaboration at the energy of the observed dipole anisotropy. We use the Jansson-Farrar (JF12) model, which has both large scale coherent and a structured random components, and determine deflections for fifteen rigidities from 10^18.0 to 10^20.0 V, for L_coh = 30 pc and 100 pc. We check the sensitivity of UHECR deflections to the particular realization of the random field, for 3 rigidity values. For each rigidity and field model studied, the UHECR arrival direction distribution is determined for an arbitrary source direction, by inverting the trajectories of > 5 x 10^7 isotropic anti-CRs of the given rigidity. We present skyplots and tables characterizing the arrival directions, for representative 1 deg sources. Except at high rigidity, the pattern of multiple images is very complex and depends strongly on the coherence length and source direction. For almost all sources, average deflections grow rapidly as the rigidity falls below 10 EV and deflections commonly are greater than 90 deg. Magnification and demagnification can be strong at almost all rigidities, and varies significantly with source direction. Much of the extragalactic celestial sphere, behind and south of the Galactic Center, cannot be seen in UHECRs below 10 EV. The pattern of deflections obtained with the coherent field alone can be significantly different than with the complete field model, even as regards the position of the centroid, for some source directions and rigidities. Multiple images, sometimes very widely separated, are common for small coherence length, especially for low rigidity.

How to fool CMB parameter estimation

description: With the release of the data from the Boomerang and MAXIMA-1 balloon flights, estimates of cosmological parameters based on the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) have reached unprecedented precision. In this paper I show that it is possible for these estimates to be substantially biased by features in the primordial density power spectrum. I construct primordial power spectra which mimic to within cosmic variance errors the effect of changing parameters such as the baryon density and neutrino mass, meaning that even an ideal measurement would be unable to resolve the degeneracy. Complementary measurements are necessary to resolve this ambiguity in parameter estimation efforts based on CMB temperature fluctuations alone.

description: Chemotherapy and photo-sonodynamic therapy (PSDT) can be combined through drug delivery nano-platforms to enhance the anti-tumor efficacy, however, which is limited by hypoxia in tumor, thereby causing chemotherapy resistance. Perfluoropentane (PFP) has the ability to carry oxygen and to enhance ultrasound or photoacoustic imaging after vaporization. Herein, we constructed a kind of nanoparticles (PTX/ICG and oxygen loaded PLGA nanoparticles (PIO_NPs)), which had PFP core carrying oxygen and PLGA shell loaded indocyanine green (ICG) and paclitaxel (PTX). PIO_NPs harbored good optical stability and the ability to transit phase. Moreover, it could rapidly release PTX and generate ROS under the mediation by near-infrared laser and low-intensity ultrasound. The PIO_NPs enhanced contrast of the ultrasound and PA imaging. In particular, PIO_NPs may be used to monitor and guide treatment for the accumulation of PIO_NPs at tumor site can be observed by PA imaging. Compared with PTX or other nanoparticles, PIO_NPs combined with laser and ultrasound (L.U) significantly induced apoptosis of SKOV3 cells and inhibited SKOV3 tumor growth. Therefore, PIO_NPs are of great potential in cancer imaging and therapy.

description: The spin Hall effect in a two-dimensional electron system on honeycomb lattice with both intrinsic and Rashba spin-orbit couplings is studied numerically. Integer quantized spin Hall conductance is obtained at zero Rashba coupling limit when electron Fermi energy lies in the energy gap created by the intrinsic spin-orbit coupling, in agreement with recent theoretical prediction. While nonzero Rashba coupling destroys electron spin conservation, the spin Hall conductance is found to remain near the quantized value, being insensitive to disorder scattering, until the energy gap collapses with increasing the Rashba coupling. We further show that the charge transport through counterpropagating spin-polarized edge channels is well quantized, which is associated with a topological invariant of the system.

description: Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) investigations of electrochemical systems require gas-tight and non-metallic cell housings. This contribution reports on the development and evaluation of a cylindrical battery container in combination with a numerically optimized saddle coil that is suitable for NMR investigations of battery cells over hundreds of charge-discharge cycles. The reliability of the new cell container design and its long-time gas-tight sealing are shown by rate capability comparisons to standard housings with LiCoO$_{2}$ (LCO) vs. Li-metal electrodes as well as a charge-discharge experiment of a LCO vs. graphite batteries over more than 2000 hours. To demonstrate the performance of the entire NMR setup, long-run in-operando measurements on a Li-metal vs. graphite cell are presented. The NMR data reveal the formation and evolution of mossy and dendritic Li microstructures over a period of 1000 h. Analyzing the measured rate of microstructure growth could help to identify dendrite mitigation strategies, such as enhanced cell pressure or additives, and could enable a method for battery lifetime prediction.

description: We construct the general solution for non-extremal charged rotating black holes in five-dimensional minimal gauged supergravity. They are characterised by four non-trivial parameters, namely the mass, the charge, and the two independent rotation parameters. The metrics in general describe regular rotating black holes, providing the parameters lie in appropriate ranges so that naked singularities and closed timelike curves (CTC's) are avoided. We calculate the conserved energy, angular momenta and charge for the solutions, and show how supersymmetric solutions arise in a BPS limit. These have naked CTC's in general, but for special choices of the parameters we obtain new regular supersymmetric black holes or smooth topological solitons.

This hybrid method is called magneto-asteroseismology and permits the determination of the internal structure and conditions within magnetic massive pulsators, for example the effect of magnetism on non-standard mixing processes. Here, we overview this technique, its requirements, and list the currently known suitable stars to apply the method.

description: The Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC) hosts a large number of candidate stellar cluster pairs. Binary stellar clusters provide important clues about cluster formation processes and the evolutionary history of the host galaxy. However, to properly extract and interpret this information, it is crucial to fully constrain the fraction of real binary systems and their physical properties. Here we present a detailed photometric analysis based on ESO-FORS2 images of three candidate cluster multiplets in the LMC, namely SL349-SL353, SL385-SL387-NGC1922 and NGC1836-BRHT4b-NGC1839. For each cluster we derived ages, structural parameters and morphological properties. We have also estimated the degree of filling of their Roche lobe, as an approximate tool to measure the strength of the tidal perturbations induced by the LMC. We find that the members of the possible pairs SL349-SL353 and BRHT4b-NGC1839 have a similar age ($t = 1.00 \pm 0.12$ Gyr and $t = 140 \pm 15$ Myr, respectively), thus possibly hinting to a common origin of their member systems We also find that all candidate pairs in our sample show evidence of intra-cluster overdensities that can be a possible indication of real binarity. Particularly interesting is the case of SL349-SL353. In fact, SL353 is relatively close to the condition of critical filling, thus suggesting that these systems might actually constitute an energetically bound pair. It is therefore key to pursue a detailed kinematic screening of such clusters, without which, at present, we do not dare making a conclusive statement about the true nature of this putative pair.

description: Most computational methods that infer somatic copy number alterations (SCNAs) from bulk sequencing of DNA analyse tumour samples individually. However, the sequencing of multiple tumour samples from a patient's disease is an increasingly common practice. We introduce Refphase, an algorithm that leverages this multi-sampling approach to infer haplotype-specific copy numbers through multi-sample phasing. We demonstrate Refphase's ability to infer haplotype-specific SCNAs and characterise their intra-tumour heterogeneity, to uncover previously undetected allelic imbalance in low purity samples, and to identify parallel evolution in the context of whole genome doubling in a pan-cancer cohort of 336 samples from 99 tumours.
Realistic shell model calculation of $2νββ$ nuclear matrix elements and role of shell structure in intermediate states

description: We discuss two conditions needed for correct computation of $2νββ$ nuclear matrix-elements within the realistic shell-model framework. An algorithm in which intermediate states are treated based on Whitehead's moment method is inspected, by taking examples of the double GT$^+$ transitions $\mbox{$^{36}$Ar}\rightarrow\mbox{$^{36}$S}$, $\mbox{$^{54}$Fe}\rightarrow\mbox{$^{54}$Cr}$ and $\mbox{$^{58}$Ni} \rightarrow\mbox{$^{58}$Fe}$. This algorithm yields rapid convergence on the $2νββ$ matrix-elements, even when neither relevant GT$^+$ nor GT$^-$ strength distribution is convergent. A significant role of the shell structure is pointed out, which makes the $2νββ$ matrix-elements highly dominated by the low-lying intermediate states. Experimental information of the low-lying GT$^\pm$ strengths is strongly desired. Half-lives of $T^{2ν}_{1/2}({\rm EC}/{\rm EC}; \mbox{$^{36}$Ar}\rightarrow\mbox{$^{36}$S})=1.7\times 10^{29}\mbox{yr}$, $T^{2ν}_{1/2}({\rm EC}/{\rm EC};\mbox{$^{54}$Fe}\rightarrow \mbox{$^{54}$Cr})=1.5\times 10^{27}\mbox{yr}$,$T^{2ν}_{1/2}({\rm EC} /{\rm EC};\mbox{$^{58}$Ni}\rightarrow\mbox{$^{58}$Fe})=6.1\times 10^{24}\mbox{yr}$and $T^{2ν}_{1/2}(β^+/{\rm EC};\mbox{$^{58}$Ni} \rightarrow\mbox{$^{58}$Fe})=8.6\times 10^{25}\mbox{yr}$ are obtained from the present realistic shell-model calculation of the nuclear matrix-elements.

Постконтузійний період ураження ока супроводжується офтальмогіпотензією, яка лежить в основі порушень мікроциркуляції та внутрішньоклітинного метаболізму, тому, доцільною є порівняльна оцінка спроможності мелатоніну, цитиколіну, корвітину та тіотриазоліну нормалізувати порушений рівень внутрішньоочного тиску (ВОТ). Мета дослідження. Провести порівняльну скринінгову оцінку впливу мелатоніну на ВОТ в нормі та в динаміці контузії ока, як можливий механізм його нейроретинопротективної дії. Матеріали та методи. В експериментах на кролях породи Шиншила в умовах контузії ока, викликаної дією потоку вуглекислого газу під тиском мелатонін досліджували дозами 5, 10 та 15 мг/кг внутрішньовенно (в/в). Референс препарати: цитиколін, корвітин та тіотриазолін вводили дозами 250, 10 та 100 мг/кг в/в. ВОТ вимірювали тонометром ICARE (Фінляндія). Результати та їх обговорення. Мелатонін в широкому діапазоні доз (5-15 мг/кг в/в) амортизує падіння ВОТ в умовах контузії ока, перевершуючи ефективність референс-препаратів цитиколіну, корвітину або тіотриазоліну. При цьому, як і препарати порівняння, мелатонін жодним чином не впливає на середні значення ВОТ при його застосуванні тваринам без офтальмопатології. Висновки. Здатність мелатоніну нормалізувати порушені показники ВОТ при експериментальній контузії ока – є одним із провідних механізмів його нейроретинопротективної дії. Перспективи подальших розробок. Перспективним є дослідження вазоактивних властивостей мелатоніну за допомогою лазерної доплерівської флоуметрії, як можливого механізму коригувального впливу препарату на низькі показники ВОТ при травмі ока.

description: We study the Bayesian problem of sequential testing of two simple hypotheses about the local drift of an observed diffusion process. The optimal stopping time is found as the first time when the a posteriori probability process leaves the region defined by two stochastic boundaries depending on the observation process. It is shown that under some nontrivial relationships on the coefficients of the observed diffusion the problem admits a closed form solution. The method of proof is based on embedding the initial problem into a two-dimensional optimal stopping problem and solving the equivalent free-boundary problem by means of the smooth-fit conditions.

description: The NEWA Forested Hill Experiment Kassel was a field campaign conducted within the EU project – New European Wind Atlas NEWA. The experiment provides a unique dataset of wind measurements for validating models for flow over forested hilly terrain. It was performed around the »Rödeser Berg«, a hill located 20 km northwest of Fraunhofer IEE Kassel, Germany. The experiment consisted of a 3 month intensive campaign and a 1 year long-term campaign (November 2016 to October 2017). In total 17 wind measurement systems were used: 9 long-range Doppler scanning lidars, 6 lidar/sodar vertical wind profilers and 2 tall met masts. By the end of the NEWA project all experimental data will be freely available. The measurement data will be provided in NetCDF format. This technical report provides a detailed documentation of the field campaign.

description: Dynamics of vibro-fluidised granular gas is investigated experimentally using the transfer of grains from a compartment through a horizontal slit at a given height h . It is demonstrated that the transfer rate j varies linearly with the grain number N in the box when N remains small; however j(N) becomes strongly non linear as soon as the number n of layers is larger than 0.3; dj/dN becomes negative for n>0.4.It is found also that the maximum of j(N) increases slightly with the acceleration af_ of the vibration which excites the granular gas. Using dynamical system theory, dynamics equations are written, and a critical bifurcation is found, which explains the existence of a condensation and of a phase transition. This explains how the pseudo " Maxwell's demon" works in granular gases. This experiments contradicts recent modeling . Pacs # : 5.40 ; 45.70 ; 62.20 ; 83.70.Fn

description: Using evolutionary computation algorithms to solve multiple tasks with knowledge sharing is a promising approach. Image feature learning can be considered as a multitask learning problem because different tasks may have a similar feature space. Genetic programming (GP) has been successfully applied to image feature learning for classification. However, most of the existing GP methods solve one task, independently, using sufficient training data. No multitask GP method has been developed for image feature learning. Therefore, this paper develops a multitask GP approach to image feature learning for classification with limited training data. Owing to the flexible representation of GP, a new knowledge sharing mechanism based on a new individual representation is developed to allow GP to automatically learn what to share across two tasks and to improve its learning performance. The shared knowledge is encoded as a common tree, which can represent the common/general features of two tasks. With the new individual representation, each task is solved using the features extracted from a common tree and a task-specific tree representing task-specific features. To find the best common and task-specific trees, a new evolutionary search process and fitness functions are developed. The performance of the new approach is examined on six multitask learning problems of 12 image classification datasets with limited training data and compared with 17 competitive methods. Experimental results show that the new approach outperforms these comparison methods in almost all the comparisons. Further analysis reveals that the new approach learns simple yet effective common trees with high effectiveness and transferability.

description: The pixel detectors for the High Luminosity upgrades of the ATLAS and CMS detectors will preserve digitized charge information in spite of extremely high hit rates. Both circuit physical size and output bandwidth will limit the number of bits to which charge can be digitized and stored. We therefore study the effect of the number of bits used for digitization and storage on single and multi-particle cluster resolution, efficiency, classification, and particle identification. We show how performance degrades as fewer bits are used to digitize and to store charge. We find that with limited charge information (4 bits), one can achieve near optimal performance on a variety of tasks.

description: Sphiximorpha petronillae Rondani, 1850
ORIGINAL DESCRIPTION: 1850b: 213.
 TYPE LOCALITY: “ in planitie prope padana Parmensis ditionis [Parmese plains near the Po valley (Italy)]”.
 TYPE MATERIAL: 1 ♀, lectotype (slightly covered with mold) (MZUF: Box 8): Sphiximorpha Rndn. / petronillae Rnd. / 373 / lectotype Sphecomorpha [sic !] petronillae Rondani, 1850, design. Van Steenis, 2016.
 PARALECTOTYPE EXAMINED: 1 ♀ (MZUF: Box 8): Sphiximorpha Rndn. / petronillae Rnd., ♀ / 373 / paralectotype Sphecomorpha [sic !] petronillae Rondani, 1850, design. van Steenis, 2016.
 CURRENT STATUS: valid species (Peck 1988: 180, Belcari et al. 1995a: 17, Steenis et al. 2016: 197).
 REMARKS: Rondani (1850b: 213) described Sphiximorpha petronillae from just the female sex, without specifying the exact number of specimens, but giving a single measurement of length, despite there being two specimens in the type series found in this study: “ Faemina tantum speciei a me tecta [sic !] [= lecta] fuit [only the female of the species was collected by me]”. Van Steenis et al. (2016: 197) designated a lectotype (♀) and paralectotype (♀) and mistakenly reported that Rondani ascribed this nominal species to the genus Sphecomorpha Bezzi, 1906.

description: Kaon photo- and electroproduction in all six isospin channels are investigated by means of an isobaric model. It is found that existing models can only partially describe the current experimental data. Moreover, the extracted coupling constants are mostly inconsistent with the prediction of SU(3) symmetry or the information from hadronic reactions. In order to further analyze this problem, we introduce a form factor at the hadronic vertices $KNY$ (with $Y=Λ~ \textrm{or}~ Σ$) and study its behavior qualitatively. Our result suggests the need of more accurate experiments, especially in the charged $Σ$ and the neutral $K^0$ channels.

description: Disordered spring networks that are undercoordinated may abruptly rigidify when sufficient strain is applied. Since the deformation in response to applied strain does not change the generic quantifiers of network architecture - the number of nodes and the number of bonds between them - this rigidity transition must have a geometric origin. Naive, degree-of-freedom based mechanical analyses such as the Maxwell-Calladine count or the pebble game algorithm overlook such geometric rigidity transitions and offer no means of predicting or characterizing them. We apply tools that were developed for the topological analysis of zero modes and states of self-stress on regular lattices to two-dimensional random spring networks, and demonstrate that the onset of rigidity, at a finite simple shear strain $γ^\star$, coincides with the appearance of a single state of self stress, accompanied by a single floppy mode. The process conserves the topologically invariant difference between the number of zero modes and the number of states of self stress, but imparts a finite shear modulus to the spring network. Beyond the critical shear, we confirm previously reported critical scaling of the modulus. In the sub-critical regime, a singular value decomposition of the network's compatibility matrix foreshadows the onset of rigidity by way of a continuously vanishing singular value corresponding to nascent state of self stress.

description: Two problems make Spoken Term Detection (STD) particularly challenging under low-resource conditions: the low quality of speech recognition hypotheses, and a high number of out-ofvocabulary (OOV) words. In this paper, we propose an intuitive way to handle OOV terms for STD on word-based Confusion Networks using phonetic similarities, and generalize it into a probabilistic and vocabulary-independent retrieval framework. We then reflect on how several heuristics and Machine Learning based methods can be incorporated into this framework to improve retrieval performance. We present experimental results on several low-resource languages from IARPA’s Babel program, such as Assamese, Bengali, Haitian, and Lao.

 Lachnus padi Hartig, 1841: 368 (nomen dubium —Eastop & Hille Ris Lambers, 1972: 237). HOLOTYPE: (361 [6.11]), Prunus padus.
 Lachnus pyri (Hartig, 1841) (misspelling— Rudow, 1875: 77, “ P. padus ” identified as host).
 Pterochloroides persicae (Cholodkovsky, 1898) (misapplied junior synonym—Börner, 1952: 47, “Syn.?”).
 Specimen. A single pinned alate collected on May 15, 1836 from Prunus padus in Tiergarten, Berlin, Germany.
 Remarks. The specimen does not belong to the genus Lachnus. Its antennae are longer than its body, its secondary rhinaria are transverse, it lacks pigmented wings and it appears to have a waxy secretion on its legs and antennae. It is our opinion instead that the specimen belongs to the genus Euceraphis (Walker, 1870). Confirmation of its identity is needed, but it is clear that its synonymy with Pterchloroides persicae (Cholodkovsky, 1898) as proposed by Börner (1952) is incorrect.

description: Based on the accretion induced magnetic a field decay model, in which a frozen field and an incompressible fluid are assumed, we obtain the following results. (1) An analytic relation between the magnetic field and spin period, if the fastness parameter of the accretion disk is neglected. The evolutionary tracks of accreting neutron stars in the P-B diagram in our model are different from the equilibrium period lines when the influence of the fastness parameter is taken into account. (2) The theoretical minimum spin period of an accreting neutron star is $\max (1.1{\rm ms}(\frac{ΔM}{M_{\odot}})^{-1} R^{-5/14}_6 I_{45}(\frac{M}{M_{\odot}})^{-1/2}, 1.1{\rm ms} (\frac{M}{M_{\odot}})^{-1/2} R^{17/14}_6)$, independent of the accretion rate (X-ray luminosity) but dependent on the total accretion mass $ΔM$. However, the minimum magnetic field depends on the accretion rate. (3) The magnetic field strength decreases faster with time than the period.

description: Boolean Conjunctive Normal Form (CNF) expansion can effectively address the vocabulary mismatch problem, a problem that current retrieval techniques have very limited ability to solve. Meanwhile, expert searchers are found to spend large amounts of time carefully creating manual CNF queries. These CNF queries are highly effective, and can outperform bag of word queries by a large margin. However, not many effective tools exist that can facilitate the efficient manual creation of effective CNF queries. We describe such a publicly available search tool, WikiQuery, which can efficiently assist the users to create CNF queries through easy query editing and immediate access to search results. Experiments show that ordinary search users, with limited prior knowledge of Boolean queries, can use this intuitive tool to create effective CNF queries. We argue that tools like WikiQuery can attract and retain certain users from the commercial Web search engines, and may be a good starting point to build a research Web search engine

 CURRENT STATUS: valid species (Smith & Vockeroth 1980: 507); junior synonym of Syritta fasciata (Wiedemann, 1830) (Lyneborg & Barkemeyer 2005: 98). See Remarks.
 REMARKS: Rondani (1873e: 282) described Syritta abyssinica from just the male sex, without specifying the exact number of specimens, but giving a single measurement of length, from material collected by O. Beccari and O. Antinori. Guiglia (1957: 196) and Raineri & Rey (1996: 51) reported the holotype (♀) in the MSNG. The MSNG also contains an additional male (non-type) labeled “ 1.X.1902 ”. Lyneborg & Barkemeyer (2005: 101) incorrectly considered this latter male as the type and the species as a junior synonym of Syritta fasciata (Wiedemann, 1830).

Supernova origin of cosmic rays from a gamma-ray signal in the Constellation III region of the Large Magellanic Cloud

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2017
Subjects: subject: High Energy Astrophysical Phenomena (astro-ph.HE)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Cosmic rays could be produced via shock acceleration powered by supernovae. The supernova hypothesis implies that each supernova injects on average some 1e50 erg in cosmic rays, while the shock acceleration model predicts a powerlaw cosmic ray spectrum with the slope close to 2. Verification of these predictions requires measurements of spectrum and power of cosmic ray injection from supernova population(s). Here we obtain such measurements based on gamma-ray observation of Constellation III region of Large Magellanic Cloud. We show that gamma-ray emission from this young star formation region originates from cosmic rays injected by approximately two thousand supernovae, rather than by massive star wind powered superbubble pre-dating supernova activity. Cosmic ray injection power is found to be (1.1-0.2+0.5)x 1e50 erg/supernova (for the estimated interstellar medium density 0.3/cm3). The spectrum is a powerlaw with slope 2.09-0.07+0.06. This agrees with the model of particle acceleration at supernova shocks and provides a direct proof of the supernova origin of cosmic rays.

description: This study examines the impact of the financialization of urban development on urban labour productivity. We identify that there is an inverted-‘U’ relationship between the financialization of urban development and urban labour productivity in China. A further investigation shows that the financial resource mismatch and alleviating of financing constraints underpin such an inverted-‘U’ relationship. Our conclusions are robust to a number of robustness checks. Finally, we also find that the financialization effect is stronger in less developed regions, and lower after 2008. This study demonstrates that the financialization of urban development could play complex and time-varying roles in an economy.
