description: We present a microscopic study of the interlayer spacing d versus in-plane magnetic field $B_\parallel$ phase diagram for bilayer quantum Hall (QH) pseudo-ferromagnets. In addition to the interlayer charge balanced commensurate and incommensurate states analyzed previously, we address the corresponding interlayer charge unbalanced "canted" QH states. We predict a large anomaly in the bilayer capacitance at the canting transition and the formation of dipole stripe domains with periods exceeding 1 micron in the canted state.

description: We introduce the local farmland market concepts in order to understand the operation of French farmland sale market. We perform an empirical analysis of farmland prices based on farmland sale market in the Bretagne Region of France. The descriptive statistics show that the price of farmer to farmer transactions is significantly higher than the non-farmer to non-farmer transactions by almost €830/ha. The log-linear estimations indicate that farmer sellers have higher bargaining power than non-farmer sellers. Because of the competition between farmers, when the sold area share of farmers increases by 50% at the municipality level, the price increases by €488/ha. Symmetric significant effect is measured on the demand side. For example, if the traded area share of farmers increases by 50% in the municipality, the price decreases by €172 /ha. The result on the supply side of traded land also reflects the higher willingness to accept (WTA) of farmers and the result on the demand side reflects a pure market power effect, since the farmers’ willingness to pay (WTP) is usually higher than non-farmers’ WTP.

Mass Renormalization in the Su-Schrieffer-Heeger Model

description: This study of the one dimensional Su-Schrieffer-Heeger model in a weak coupling perturbative regime points out the effective mass behavior as a function of the adiabatic parameter $ω_π/J$, $ω_π$ is the zone boundary phonon energy and $J$ is the electron band hopping integral. Computation of low order diagrams shows that two phonons scattering processes become appreciable in the intermediate regime in which zone boundary phonons energetically compete with band electrons. Consistently, in the intermediate (and also moderately antiadiabatic) range the relevant mass renormalization signals the onset of a polaronic crossover whereas the electrons are essentially undressed in the fully adiabatic and antiadiabatic systems. The effective mass is roughly twice as much the bare band value in the intermediate regime while an abrupt increase (mainly related to the peculiar 1D dispersion relations) is obtained at $ω_π\sim \sqrt{2}J$.

description: The Bannai-Ito algebra $BI(n)$ is viewed as the centralizer of the action of $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$ in the $n$-fold tensor product of the universal algebra of this Lie superalgebra. The generators of this centralizer are constructed with the help of the universal $R$-matrix of $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$. The specific structure of the $\mathfrak{osp}(1|2)$ embeddings to which the centralizing elements are attached as Casimir elements is explained. With the generators defined, the structure relations of $BI(n)$ are derived from those of $BI(3)$ by repeated action of the coproduct and using properties of the $R$-matrix and of the generators of the symmetric group $\mathfrak S_n$.

description: Non-point source pollution and its impact on water quality are of great importance to policy makers, residence and farmers. This paper uses a hedonic property value model to investigate the marginal implicit values of water quality change in Hoover Reservoir in the Upper Big Walnut Creek (UBWC) watershed, Ohio. The estimates are fed into a simple dynamic optimization model which maximizes social welfare while taking into account the damage from production as well as the production profits. This paper uses the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) to simulate the quality and quantity of the surface and ground water and uses ArcGIS to link housing transactions in Franklin County and Delaware County with disaggregated flow of nutrient runoff in the watershed. The econometric results indicate that the marginal damage for a one mg/L increase in nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) loadings are $7,713.41 and $27,624.05 respectively, and the increase of property value of a one meter increase of secchi depth water clarity is $95,132.07. This paper investigates the effects of multiple water quality parameters on both waterfront and non-waterfront properties, using the yearly maximum loading, sediment, and dissolved oxygen, as well as yearly average secchi disk depth as measurement. A simple dynamic optimization model is included to show the tradeoff between production profits and water quality.

description: There is growing interest in the role of remittances on livelihoods of households in developing countries including those in Sub-Saharan Africa. We estimate the remittance elasticity for a number of macro- and micronutrients using a sample of rural households in Tanzania. Due to endogeneity of net income and remittances, special focus is placed on econometric analysis. One major finding is that remittances seem to be used as an investment in higher quality nutrients like proteins, vitamin A, vitamin C and calcium that lead to better development of especially the young population while net income is used for mere consumption. Remittances do not have any significant effect on calories, carbohydrates, and fats.

description: This paper investigates the presence of career incentives in arm's-length contracts between wine-grape farmers and wineries in Chile. We observe explicit incentives in pay-for-performance provisions that depend on measurable characteristics of grape quality, and we test for the presence of complementary implicit incentives that arise from competition in the market for contract farmers. In addition to the traditional use of long-term contracts as ex ante protection against potential future hold-up, we hypothesize that long-term contracts represent the final stage in the farmers' "careers" after a series of short-term contracts. We develop a model of career concerns that incorporates investment in training by wineries and find conditions under which long-term contracts are preferred to short-term contracts. We find that contracts in the Chilean wine-grape market are structured like a ladder and that career incentives are important in a setting which uses long-term contracts for high-quality provision. In general, farmers that have invested in high-quality production, and those that are more able, educated, and experienced can access long-term contracts.

description: This paper studies the relationship among domestically produced and imported melons and vegetables (i.e., fresh onions, fresh tomatoes, spinach, oranges and cantaloupes). The U.S import expenditure, quantity, and price data are collected from the Economic Research Service (ERS). U.S. vegetables and melons consumption data are also collected from ERS. In method one, under the assumption of the separability between domestic and foreign goods, we fit the Rotterdam model to the import data for the selected commodities by country of origin. Conditional import expenditure and price elasticities are calculated. In method two, the same commodities are used as in method one, but consumption of the U.S. produced commodities are included with the imported ones. However, the practical application of this method leads to fewer imported goods from countries of origin. Again the Rotterdam model is fit to the data and conditional expenditure and price elasticities are calculated. Also in this section, we test for weak separability between the domestically produced good and the imported ones. The third method formulates the problem in two-stage procedure. In the first stage, a Rotterdam model is fit to the U.S. domestic consumption data and to total imports of the good. It consists of two equations, demand for the domestically produced good and demand for the imported good as a whole. In the second stage, total import expenditure is allocated among the different country sources. For each stage, conditional expenditure and price elasticities are calculated. Those of the second stage are directly comparable to method one. By proper multiplication between the elasticities of stages one and two, conditional elasticities are calculated that are directly comparable to those of method two.

description: The rapidly growing interest in the literature about the anticancer activity of 3,5-disubstituted pyrazolines and their promising therapeutic potentials/pharmacological properties, supported by the number of pyrazoline derivatives currently in clinical use or clinical trials, encouraged us to review the in vitro antiproliferative effects and biochemical investigations of probable mechanisms of action. Nevertheless, many reported pyrazoline-bearing compounds have anticancer activity without an explored mode of action, which opens new research avenues to examine their biochemical profiles further. Therefore, 3,5-disubstituted pyrazoline is a promising core that can be used to design new derivatives with anticancer activity based on the structure-activity relationship summarized in this review to obtain higher potency and selectivity.

description: We review the recent fast progress in statistical physics of evolving networks. Interest has focused mainly on the structural properties of random complex networks in communications, biology, social sciences and economics. A number of giant artificial networks of such a kind came into existence recently. This opens a wide field for the study of their topology, evolution, and complex processes occurring in them. Such networks possess a rich set of scaling properties. A number of them are scale-free and show striking resilience against random breakdowns. In spite of large sizes of these networks, the distances between most their vertices are short -- a feature known as the ``small-world'' effect. We discuss how growing networks self-organize into scale-free structures and the role of the mechanism of preferential linking. We consider the topological and structural properties of evolving networks, and percolation in these networks. We present a number of models demonstrating the main features of evolving networks and discuss current approaches for their simulation and analytical study. Applications of the general results to particular networks in Nature are discussed. We demonstrate the generic connections of the network growth processes with the general problems of non-equilibrium physics, econophysics, evolutionary biology, etc.

description: The Gemini Planet Imager (GPI) is a high contrast imaging instrument that aims to detect and characterize
extrasolar planets. GPI is being upgraded to GPI 2.0, with several subsystems receiving a re-design to improve
the instrument\'s contrast. To enable observations on fainter targets and increase stability on brighter ones, one of
the upgrades is to the adaptive optics system. The current Shack-Hartmann wavefront sensor (WFS) is being
replaced by a pyramid WFS with an low-noise electron-multiplying CCD (EMCCD). EMCCDs are detectors
capable of counting single photon events at high speed and high sensitivity. In this work, we characterize the
performance of the HNu 240 EMCCD from Nuvu Cameras, which was custom-built for GPI 2.0. The HNu
240 EMCCD\'s characteristics make it well suited for extreme AO: it has low dark current (

description: Stellar rotation influences our understanding of stellar structure and evolution, binary systems, clusters etc. and therefore the benefits of a large and highly accurate database on stellar rotation, obtained by GAIA, will be manifold. To study the prospects of GAIA measurement of projected rotational velocities v_rot sin i, we use synthetic stellar spectra to simulate the determination of v_rot sin i at different resolutions (R=5000 - 20000) and S/N (10-300). Results on the accuracy of v_rot sin i, presented here, show that GAIA will be capable to measure also low rotational velocities (~10 km/s), provided that the resolution is higher than 10.000, or preferably even higher.

description: A method of combining survey data and Dairy Herd Improvement Association (DHIA) records to achieve low cost farm trials is presented. Farm trials and surveys of current practices and production responses are useful to identify yield gaps between expectations predicted from experimental findings and actual field results. Different management schemes can be ranked using subjective probabilities and stochastic dominance to enhance successful implementation of research findings and to increase the feedback between researchers, extension workers, and producers. A survey of current masitis control practices and expected milk yield response is the example. Combining survey results with DHIA records allowed estimating the relationship between somatic cell counts (SCC) and milk yield. Eliciting beliefs about the relationship between sec and milk yield showed that producers agreed with predictions from the statistical model. Subjective probabilities about SCC and mastitis control practices showed that our sample of experts and producers consistently ranked the different practices but extension agents had no consensus about the the most or least effective ones.

description: Deterministic oscillations of current-induced metastable resistivity in changing voltage have been detected in La$_{0.82}$Ca$_{0.18}$MnO$_3$ single crystals. At low temperatures, below the Curie point, application of specific bias procedures switches the crystal into metastable resistivity state characterized by appearance of pronounced reproducible and random structures in the voltage dependence of the differential conductivity. In certain bias range equally spaced broad conductivity peaks have been observed. The oscillating conductivity has been tentatively ascribed to resonances in a quantum well within the double tunnel barrier of intrinsic weak-links associated with twin-like defect boundaries.

Hail larger than golf ball size caused considerable damage, especially in the Munich area where losses amount to EUR 1 billion. This event thus ranks among the ten most expensive hail events in Europe in the last 40 years. Atmospheric blocking in combination with a moist, unstably stratified air mass provided an excellent setting for the development of severe, hail‐producing thunderstorms across the country. image

Based on spectral energy distribution fitting that allows for decomposition of the black hole accretion and star-formation components in the mid-infrared, we show that the megamaser (disk maser) detection rate increases sharply for galaxies with 12 micron AGN luminosity L^{AGN}_{12 micron} greater than 10^42 erg/s, from ~<3%(~<2%) to ~12%(~5%). By using the ratio of the observed X-ray to mid-IR AGN luminosity as an indicator of N_H, we also find that the megamaser (disk maser) detection rates are boosted to 15%(7%) and 20%(9%) for galaxies with N_H >= 10^23 cm^{-2} and N_H >= 10^{24} cm^{-2}, respectively. Combining these column density cuts with a constraint for high L^{AGN}_{12 micron} (>=10^42 erg/s) predicts further increases in the megamaser (disk maser) detection rates to 19%(8%) and 27%(14%), revealing unprecedented potential boosts of the megamaser and disk maser detection rates by a factor of 7-15 relative to the current rates, depending on the chosen sample selection criteria. A noteworthy aspect of these new predictions is that the completeness rates are only compromised mildly, with the rates remaining at the level of ~95%(~50%) for sources with N_H >= 10^{23} cm^{-2} (N_H >= 10^24 cm^-2). Applying these selection methods to the current X-ray AGN surveys predicts the detection of >~15 new megamaser disks.

description: X-ray emission from the surface of hot, compact stars was first detected almost 47 years ago, so just within the scope of this meeting! The X-ray emission from Sirius detected with ANS turned out to be photospheric X-ray emission from Sirius B, and the X-ray spectrum has been used to solve a puzzling inconsistency regarding the radius of the white dwarf star. Likewise, photospheric radiation from a neutron star was first detected (but not immediately recognized as such) in 1976, when X-ray bursts from the direction of the Globular Cluster NGC6624 were seen. Like all stellar spectroscopy, X-ray spectroscopy of neutron stars and white dwarfs holds the potential for precise and unambiguous measurement of the fundamental properties of these stars. I will briefly describe some of the results of X-ray spectroscopic observations, and the important questions we are still trying to answer.

description: The Dispersed Matter Planet Project targets stars with anomalously low Ca II H&K chromospheric emission. High precision, high cadence radial velocity measurements of the F8V star HD 38677 / DMPP-1 reveal four short period planets. DMPP-1 has log(R'HK) = -5.16 which probably indicates the presence of circumstellar absorbing gas arising from an ablating hot planet. The planets have P$_{\rm orb}$ ~ 2.9 - 19 d, i.e., a compact planetary system with super-Earth (~3 M$_\oplus$) to Neptune-mass (~24 M$_\oplus$) planets. These irradiated planets may be chthonian: remnant cores of giant planets after mass-loss while crossing the Neptune desert. Modelling the possible long-term activity indicators while searching for Keplerian signals modifies the recovered planetary signals. A priori inferences about the presence of short period planets allowed the efficient discovery of the DMPP-1 planets. They have great potential for novel and informative follow-up characterisation studies.

description: Cobra venom phospholipase A2 (PLA2) has been known to induce life threatening effects post-envenomation in the victims. Being the most abundant and noxious component of snake venom, present study was envisaged to investigate new drug candidates against PLA2 enzyme. Amide and sulfonamide thiazole derivatives were synthesized and characterized using FTIR, 1HNMR and 13CNMR followed by docking targeted protein techniques. Furthermore, synthetic analogues were evaluated in vitro for their potentials to neutralize PLA2 activity. Among the pool of synthetic derivatives, compound (7) (ethyl 2-(2-(4-isobutylphenyl)propanamido)thiazole-4-carboxylate) was found to be completely effective (p > 0.05; IC50 = 1 nM) to mask cent percent PLA2 activity. Moreover, Ramachandran plot further conferred about the location of amino acid residues in the most favored region and, therefore, attributed to confiscate PLA2 activity. Furthermore, ADME profile suggested that compound (7) possesses systemic bioavailability and efficacy with favorable safety profile (high solubility, membrane permeability, metabolic stability, and low potential for off-target results). Present study highlighted compound (7) as a potential PLA2 inhibitor to reverse PLA2-induced snake venom poisoning in future.

description: (E)-4-(3,4,5 Trimethoxyphenyl)but-3-en-2-one (TMBN) role as a carbon steel (C/S) corrosion crystal inhibitor in 1 M HCl was scrutinized via multiple techniques: weight loss measures, UV-visible spectroscopy, electrochemical analyses, SEM, and EDX for surface observations, as well as theoretical computation. The inhibition efficiency, as measured by all techniques, stays coherent and demonstrates an enlargement with higher inhibitor concentrations. TMBN displayed better inhibition performance for C/S corrosion in the acidic milieu, achieving an astonishing 98.1% inhibition at 0.001 M. The polarization approach demonstrated that TMBN operated as a mixed-type inhibitor, effectively hindering both anodic and cathodic processes simultaneously. The interaction between TMBN and C/S orbitals adheres to a Langmuir adsorption model, and its inhibition mechanism is facilitated by chemical interactions. As a result, the thermodynamic and kinetic variables were estimated and thoroughly discussed. The UV-visible spectrum ascertains the setting up of a complex between the TMBN and the iron ions present in the acidic milieu, while the SEM/EDX and contact angle display the shaping of an adsorbed film at the C/S facade. Density functional theory and molecular dynamic simulations were assembled to establish the correlation between theoretical variables and practical outcomes.

description: The understanding of sliding friction for wet, patterned surfaces from first principles is challenging. While emerging applications have sought design principles from biology, a general framework is lacking because soft interfaces experience a multiphysics coupling between solid deformation and fluid dissipation. We investigate the elastohydrodynamic sliding of >50 patterned sliding pairs comprising elastomers, thermosets, and hydrogels, and discover that texturing induces a critical transition in the macroscopic friction coefficient. This critical friction scales universally, without any fitting parameters, with the reduced elastic modulus and the pattern geometry. To capture the frictional dissipation, we separate the flow curve into two regimes and account for the contributions of shear and normal forces applied by the fluid on the patterns. Our model combines Reynolds' equations and elastic deformation to provide physical insights that allow engineering of the elastohydrodynamic friction in a class of soft tribopairs using pattern geometry, material elasticity, and fluid properties.

description: A wide range of problems in economics, agriculture, and natural resource management have been analyzed using continuous-time optimal control models, where the state variables change over time in a stochastic manner. Using a firm-level investment model and a model of environmental degradation, this paper provides a concise introduction to continuous-time stochastic control techniques. The process used to derive the differential of a stochastic process is stressed and, in turn, is used to explain Ito's lemma, Bellman's equation, the Hamilton-Jacobi equation, the maximum principle, and the expected dynamics of choice variables. A basic extension of the dynamic duality literature is also provided, where the Hamilton-Jacobi equation is used to derive a stochastic and dynamic analogue of Hotelling's lemma.

description: Online decision support for effective mitigation actions against propagating cascading outages in a power grid still poses a big challenge to grid operators. This paper proposes an online mitigation strategy against cascading outages using an optimal power flow model based on a Dynamic Interaction Graph. For a given power grid, its interaction graph, also called an interaction model, was proposed in recent literature, which is composed of components and links that have large contributions to outage propagation. Differing from a conventional interaction graph, a Dynamic Interaction Graph can adaptively update its parameters with changes of grid topology and hence is more accurate in online identification of the most vulnerable transmission lines and likely outage propagation paths for mitigation. Further, the paper introduces an optimal power flow model based on the proposed Dynamic Interaction Graph for determining the optimal control strategy to maintain transfer margins of vulnerable transmission lines and effectively mitigate outage propagation. The numerical results on the IEEE 118-bus system demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed models and associated control strategy.

Allocable fixed inputs as a cause of joint production: an empirical investigation

description: Leathers (1991) shows that while the existence of allocable fixed inputs can cause joint production (as in Shumway, Pope and Nash, 1984), it will not necessarily lead to joint production. The extent to which allocable fixed inputs cause joint production in agriculture is an empirical question. This paper offers an empirical answer. By estimating a short-run joint cost function, it is possible to identify levels of outputs for which joint production may be optimal in the short run but not in the long run. Only in these output regions will there be jointness caused by allocable fixed inputs. For the data in this paper (160 Wisconsin farms), these output regions are very small; thus allocable fixed inputs do not appear to be an important cause of jointness for these farms. Technical causes of jointness appear to be a significant cause of joint production.
