description: We investigate the range of validity of the recently developed steady-state ab-initio laser theory (SALT). While very efficient in describing various microlasers, SALT is conventionally believed not to be applicable to lasers featuring fully or nearly degenerate pairs of resonator modes above the lasing threshold. Here we demonstrate how SALT can indeed be extended to describe such cases as well, with the effect that we significantly broaden the theory's scope. In particular, we show how to use SALT in conjunction with a linear stability analysis to obtain stable single-mode lasing solutions that involve a degenerate mode pair. Our flexible and efficient approach is tested on one-dimensional ring lasers as well as on two-dimensional microdisk lasers with broken symmetry.

description: We present BV photometry for 54 variables in the metal-rich inner halo globular cluster NGC 6723. With the discovery of new RR Lyrae variables (RRLs), we obtain P ab = 0.541 ± 0.066 and P c = 0.292 ± 0.030 day, n(c)/n(ab+c) = 0.167, and V(RR)int = 15.459 ± 0.055. We carry out the Fourier decomposition analysis and obtain [Fe/H]ZW = –1.23 ± 0.11 and E(B – V) = 0.063 ± 0.015 for NGC 6723. By calibrating the zero point from the recent absolute trigonometric parallax measurements for RR Lyr, we derive the revised MV(RR)-[Fe/H] relation, providing MV(RR) = 0.52 at [Fe/H] = –1.50 and (m – M)0 = 18.54 for the Large Magellanic Cloud, in excellent agreement with others. We obtain (m – M)0 = 14.65 ± 0.05, equivalent to a distance from the Sun of 8.47 ± 0.17 kpc, for NGC 6723 from various distance measurement methods using RRLs. We find that RRLs in NGC 6723 do not have magnitude dependency on the radial distance because there is not a severe degree of apparent crowdedness. Finally, we show that a relation exists between the degree of photometric contamination and the apparent crowdedness of the central region of globular cluster systems, . The use of this relation can play a significant role in mitigating the discrepancy in establishing a cosmic distance scale using RRLs in resolved stellar populations in near-field cosmology.

Mais l’Analyse de Cycle de Vie (ACV) classique ne permet pas d’évaluer convenablement la performance environnementale de ces procédés innovants. Pour y parvenir, une ACV prospective territoriale est proposée. L’application de cette démarche sur un projet réel témoigne du potentiel des résultats obtenus. La pertinence environnementale du procédé est estimée. En identifiant les meilleures alternatives, l’étude offre également une vision sur l’intégration future du procédé dans une industrie. Enfin, des leviers d’action peuvent être déterminés pour améliorer la poursuite du développement du procédé.

The Local Effects of Monetary Policy

description: Many studies have documented disparities in the regional responses to monetary policy shocks. However, because of computational issues, the literature has often neglected the richest level of disaggregation: the city. In this paper, we estimate the city-level responses to monetary policy shocks in a Bayesian SVAR. The Bayesian SVAR allows us to model the entire panel of metropolitan areas through the imposition of a shrinkage prior. We then seek the origin of the city-level asymmetric responses. We find strong evidence that the population density and the size of the local government sector mitigate the effects of monetary policy on local employment. The roles of the traditional interest rate, equity, and credit channels are marginalized relative to the previous findings based on less-granular definitions of regions. However, the relevance of the interest rate and credit channels appears to be more robust to business cycle uncertainty.

description: Dans le cadre du développement de nouvelles typologies de structures, économiquement et environnementalement performantes, l’utilisation du bois a considérablement augmenté au cours de ces dernières années. Dans le cas des planchers, l’association au matériau béton permet à la fois de maximiser la portée capable, et d’atteindre des performances acoustiques et vibratoires satisfaisantes. Afin d’assembler les deux matériaux, il est de plus en plus fait recours à la réalisation d’encoches dans le bois, remplies de béton, associées à des vis métalliques. Ce mode d’assemblage présente l’avantage d’être très rigide, mais la mise en place de ces éléments métalliques est coûteuse. Une connexion innovante, par encoches, mais sans connecteur métallique, a été développée, dans le cadre de la chaire REEXPERIENCE. Le rôle structurel de cet élément est non seulement de transférer la charge entre les deux matériaux, mais également d’avoir une résistance suffisante au soulèvement entre le bois et le béton. Dans cet article, les essais push out statique menés pour étudier le comportement de cette connexion sont présentés. Il est montré que les grandes raideurs et résistances des connexions par encoche sont maintenues, sans soulèvement excessif. Par ailleurs, le mode de rupture, par compression localisée du bois, apporte une ductilité remarquable au système.

description: The dichotomy between high microbial abundance (HMA) and low microbial abundance (LMA) sponges has been long recognized. In the present study, 56 sponge species from three geographic regions (greater Caribbean, Mediterranean, Red Sea) were investigated by transmission electron microscopy for the presence of microorganisms in the mesohyl matrix. Additionally, bacterial enumeration by DAPI-counting was performed on a subset of samples. Of the 56 species investigated, 28 were identified as belonging to the HMA and 28 to the LMA category. The sponge orders Agelasida and Verongida consisted exclusively of HMA species, and the Poecilosclerida were composed only of LMA sponges. Other taxa contained both types of microbial associations (

description: Mutually unbiased bases (MUB) are interesting for various reasons. The most attractive example of (a complete set of) MUB is the one constructed by Ivanović as well as Wootters and Fields, which is referred to as the canonical MUB. Nevertheless, little is known about anything that is unique to this MUB. We show that the canonical MUB in any prime power dimension is uniquely determined by an extremal orbit of the (restricted) Clifford group except in dimension 3, in which case the orbit defines a special symmetric informationally complete measurement (SIC), known as the Hesse SIC. Here the extremal orbit is the one with the smallest number of pure states. Quite surprisingly, this characterization does not rely on any concept that is related to bases or unbiasedness. As a corollary, the canonical MUB is the unique minimal 2-design covariant with respect to the Clifford group except in dimension 3. In addition, these MUB provide an infinite family of highly symmetric frames and positive-operator-valued measures (POVMs), which are of independent interest.

description: In this paper, we show that magnetic skyrmion nucleation can be controlled using Ga+ ion irradiation, which manipulates the magnetic interface effects (in particular the magnetic anisotropy and Dzyaloshinskii-Moriya interaction) that govern the stability and energy cost of skyrmions in thin film systems. We systematically and quantitatively investigated what effect these changes have on the nucleation of magnetic skyrmions. Our results indicate that the energy cost of skyrmion nucleation can be reduced up to 26% in the studied dose range and that it scales approximately linearly with the square root of the domain-wall energy density. Moreover, the total number of nucleated skyrmions in irradiated devices after nucleation was found to depend linearly on the ion dose and could be doubled compared to nonirradiated devices. These results show that ion irradiation cannot only be used to enable local nucleation of skyrmions, but that it also allows for fine control of the threshold and efficiency of the nucleation process.

Modest changes in dietary intake across the menstrual cycle: implications for food intake research

description: Food intake varies across the menstrual cycle in mammals, energy intake usually being greater in the premenstrual phase compared with the postmenstrual phase. Premenstrual increments in energy intake and a preferential selection of carbohydrate have been suggested to be greater in women with premenstrual syndrome (PMS), who may be more sensitive to cyclical hormonal or neurotransmitter fluctuations. This has direct implications for research within populations of women, especially where the primary outcome is diet or a change in energy balance. We aimed to determine whether: the premenstrual intake of energy and macronutrients differed from the postmenstrual intake; the change in intake across the menstrual cycle differed in women with PMS compared with controls; and the change in intake was related to the severity of premenstrual symptoms. We collected 3 d dietary intake data during the postmenstrual and premenstrual phases of the menstrual cycle in thirty-one women with PMS and twenty-seven control women. The consumption of energy and macronutrient intake were similar between the phases of the cycle in women with PMS. Conversely, intakes were usually greater premenstrually in control women, although not all differences were statistically significant. Exceptions were with non-milk extrinsic sugars and alcohol, which were both consumed in greater amounts in the premenstrual phase in women with PMS. Significant correlations were observed between the severity
Carbon footprint of dredged sediments and virgin aggregates in a road case study

description: Aggregates extraction and quarry operations is a major source of greenhouse emissions in construction work. The growing demand on virgin aggregates for road construction and other infrastructure works promote the use of alternative materials. Waste valorization is one of these strategies that substitute the need of virgin aggregates by reusing or recycling wastes. These wastes provide a suitable alternative in case they met the environmental and mechanical requirements in terms of their functionality. Dredged sediments are one of these materials that shown several abilities to be used in road construction. The focus of using such alternatives in order to avoid natural resources consumption doesn’t disperse the attention to their carbon footprints. In this paper, a comparative assessment was conducted to address the carbon footprints beyond the production of virgin aggregates and their replacement by dredged sediments for the use in road construction. Carbon footprints were estimated based on a life cycle assessment approach.

The formulation is presented in momentum space and the scattering solutions are obtained by considering the elementary use of distributions. In this approach, the outgoing boundary conditions are imposed explicitly in contrast to the $iε$ prescription often used in quantum mechanics.

The nutrition transition in Barbados: trends in macronutrient supply from 1961 to 2003

description: Barbados has been experiencing increasing rates of obesity and chronic non-communicable diseases characteristic of a country in nutrition transition. However, few studies have been carried out on how precisely the diet has changed in recent decades. Our aim was to analyse the FAO food balance sheets for Barbados from 1961 to 2003 in order to characterise the changes that have taken place in the macronutrient supply of the country during that period. Annual food balance sheets were downloaded from the FAOSTAT database, and per capita supply for twelve commodity groupings was analysed for energy and macronutrient levels using WISP dietary analysis software (Tinuviel Software, Llanfechell, Anglesey, UK). The food supply in 2003 provided over 2500 kJ (about 600 kcal) more energy per capita per d than it did in 1961. Energy from carbohydrate as a percentage of total energy has fallen from 70 % in 1961 to 57 % in 2003 and is now at the lower end of WHO recommendations. Energy from fat as a percentage of total energy increased from 19 % to 28 % and now lies at the upper end of WHO recommendations. Sugars, at over 17 % of dietary energy, are well above the upper limit set by the WHO. Despite having methodological limitations associated with the use of food balance statistics, our data suggest that these imbalances need to be addressed as a matter of priority in order to try to reverse the incidence of nutrition-related chronic diseases that are projected to cause increasing disability and premature death in the country in the coming years.

En effet, une entreprise spécialiste de la récupération et du traitement des huiles usagées a mis au point différents procédés permettant de générer des huiles industrielles ayant déjà été utilisées. Un marché pour cette entreprise concerne les huiles de décoffrage. Afin d’étudier les propriétés de ces huiles, deux formulations ont été testées, une base et une base avec solvant. Les propriétés physico-chimiques ont été déterminées par le calcul des énergies d’adhésion puis une étude portant sur la qualité des parements est réalisée à vue et par analyse d’images à 1 jour et 7 jours après décoffrage. Les résultats obtenus ont été comparés à une huile à base végétale commercialisée.

description: This study focuses on the mechanical behaviour and performance of connections in the timber gridshells. Two different forms of timber beams are used, the first was consisting of timber beam of gridshells without connection, and the second was with steel connection that was fabricated by the Quaternion company in France. These two forms of timber beams are those most widely used as a main beams in gridshells structures. In this paper, an experimental investigation of large-scale timber beam of the gridshells with dimensions (2.8m length) are used.

description: Obesity has reached epidemic proportions and is recognised as a significant global health problem. Increased food intake and decreased physical activity are traditionally to blame for the development of obesity; however, many variables such as behaviour, diet, environment, social structures and genetics also contribute to this multifactorial disease. Complex interactions among these variables (for example, gene-environment, gene-diet and gene-gene) contribute not only to individual differences in the development of obesity, but also in treatment response. Mouse models have historically played valuable roles in understanding the genetics of traits related to energy balance and obesity. In the present review, we survey past use and examine new advances in mouse models designed to uncover the genetic architecture of obesity and its component traits. We discuss traditional models such as inbred strains and selectively bred lines and their contributions and shortcomings. We consider the evolution of mouse models into more informative resources such as outbred crosses and the Hybrid Mouse Diversity Panel, as well as novel next-generation approaches such as the Collaborative Cross. Moreover, the genetic architecture of voluntary exercise and the interactive relationship between host genetics and the gut microbiome are presented as novel phenotypes that augment studies using body weight and body fat percentage as endpoints. Understanding the intricate network of phenotypic, genotypic and environmental variables that predispose individuals to obesity will elucidate biological networks involved in the development of obesity. Knowledge obtained from advances in mouse models will inform human health and provide insight into inter-individual variability in the aetiology of obesity-related diseases.

description: Observational studies have indicated that soya food consumption is inversely associated with blood pressure (BP). Evidence from randomised controlled trials (RCT) on the BP-lowering effects of soya protein intake is inconclusive. We aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of soya protein intake in lowering BP. The PubMed database was searched for published RCT in the English language through to April 2010, which compared a soya protein diet with a control diet. We conducted a random-effects meta-analysis to examine the effects of soya protein on BP. Subgroup and meta-regression analyses were performed to explore possible explanations for heterogeneity among trials. Meta-analyses of twenty-seven RCT showed a mean decrease of 2·21 mmHg (95 % CI - 4·10, - 0·33; P = 0·021) for systolic BP (SBP) and 1·44 mmHg (95 % CI - 2·56, - 0·31; P = 0·012) for diastolic BP (DBP), comparing the participants in the soya protein group with those in the control group. Soya protein consumption significantly reduced SBP and DBP in both hypertensive and normotensive subjects, and the reductions were markedly greater in hypertensive subjects. Significant and greater BP reductions were also observed in trials using carbohydrate, but not milk products, as the control diet. Meta-regression analyses further revealed a significantly inverse association between pre-treatment BP and the level of BP reductions. In conclusion, soya protein intake, compared with a control diet, significantly reduces both SBP and DBP, but the BP reductions are related to pre-treatment BP levels of subjects and the type of control diet used as comparison.

description: L’étude du comportement du béton sous l’effet de la température est primordiale afin d’évaluer le niveau de sécurité des structures sous sollicitations thermiques (cas des structures nucléaires par exemple). En effet, le chargement thermique conduit à plusieurs mécanismes d’endommagement responsables de la fissuration du béton. Une investigation expérimentale est proposée ici afin de suivre l’évolution de l’endommagement sous chargement thermique par la technique d’émission acoustique. Une proportionnalité entre l’évolution de la température et l’activité acoustique a été observée en phase de chauffage et de maintien de la température. La phase de refroidissement a montré une faible activité acoustique. Les cartes de densité des événements et de l'énergie tracées à partir des cartes de localisation ont permis de suivre l’évolution de l’endommagement et de localiser la fissuration.

Spontaneous reduction of noncommutative gauge symmetry and model building

description: We propose a mechanism for the spontaneous (gauge-invariant) reduction of noncommutative U(n) gauge theories down to SU(n). This can be achieved through the condensation of composite U(n) gauge invariant fields that involve half-infinite Wilson lines in the trace-U(1) noninvariant and SU(n) preserving direction. Based on this mechanism, we discuss an anomaly-free fully gauge invariant noncommutative standard model based on the minimal gauge group U(3) × U(2) x U(1), previously proposed, and show how it can be consistently reduced to the standard model with the usual particle spectrum. Charge quantization for quarks and leptons naturally follows from the model.

description: L’objectif de cet article est de valoriser la terre excavée issue des travaux de creusement du tunnel de Grand Paris Expresse pour élaborer des mortiers à base de terre. L’effet de dosage en ciment et de chanvrette ont été testés. L’ouvrabilité, la résistance mécanique et les propriétés thermiques des mortiers de terre ont été mesurés. Les résultats ont montré que l’ouvrabilité des mortiers diminue légèrement avec l’augmentation du pourcentage de ciment ou de la teneur en fibre naturelle. La résistance mécanique augmente avec l’augmentation du pourcentage en ciment. Les propriétés thermiques ont été améliorées après l’ajout de chanvrette. Les fibres sont bien distribuées dans la matrice néanmoins présentent une décohésion avec la matrice.

description: We show that a unique, most probable and stable solution for the wavefunction of the universe, with a very small cosmological constant , can be predicted from the supersymmetric minisuperspace with N vacua of the landscape of string theory without referring to the anthropic principle. Due to the nearest neighbor tunneling in moduli space lattice, the N-fold degeneracy of the vacua is lifted and a discrete spectrum of bound state levels over the whole minisuperspace emerges. Supersymmetry is spontaneously broken by these bound states, with discrete non-zero energy levels , s=1,2,...

description: L’urgence climatique nous pousse à revoir nos modèles sociétaux, notamment en matière de développement et de consommation. Dans le secteur de la construction, qui est l’un des plus impactant, une solution pour lutter contre le réchauffement global pourrait être d’utiliser une mixité de matériaux naturels, bio-sourcés ou géo-sourcés produits localement pour bâtir des habitats confortables, sains et durables. Cette étude est consacrée à deux nobles représentants de la catégorie, que sont la pierre naturelle calcaire et la fibre de bois. Les résultats expérimentaux issus de l’instrumentation d’échantillons de parois seront confrontés à des simulations numériques afin d’analyser les transferts couplés de chaleur et d’humidité et la pertinence des modèles pour ce type de matériaux. Une seconde partie présentera l’analyse environnementale de plusieurs maçonneries en pierres naturelles dans le but de déterminer les principaux flux contributeurs de l’impact.

Seeking evolution of dark energy

Year: 2011

description: We study how observationally to distinguish between a cosmological constant (CC) and an evolving dark energy with equation of state $\omega(Z)$. We focus on the value of redshift Z* at which the cosmic late time acceleration begins and $\ddot{a}(Z^{*}) = 0$. Four $\omega(Z)$ are studied, including the well-known CPL model and a new model that has advantages when describing the entire expansion era. If dark energy is represented by a CC model with $\omega \equiv -1$, the present ranges for $\Omega_{\Lambda}(t_0)$ and $\Omega_m(t_0)$ imply that Z* = 0.743 with 4% error. We discuss the possible implications of a model independent measurement of Z* with better accuracy.
