description: We report on observations of the recently detected (Kuzmin et al. 2004) giant pulses (GPs) from the pulsar PSR B0031-07 at 40 and 111 MHz. At 40 MHz the peak flux density of the strongest pulse is 1100 Jy, which is 400 times as high as the peak flux density of the average pulse (AP). Peak flux density of the GPs compared to the AP peak flux density has roughly a power-law distribution with a slope of -4.5. GPs at 40 MHz are essentially stronger than those ones at 111 MHz. This excess is approximately in inverse proportion to the frequency ratio. The giant pulses are much narrower than the AP, and cluster in two narrow regions of the AP near the peaks of the two components of the AP. Some of the GPs emit at both phases and are double. The separation of the double GP emission regions depends on frequency. Similarly to the frequency dependence of the width of the AP, it is less at 111 MHz than at 40 MHz. This suggests that GPs are emitted from the same region of the magnetosphere as the AP, that is in a hollow cone over the polar cap instead of the light cylinder region. PSR B0031-07 as well as the previously detected PSR B1112+50 are the first pulsars with GPs that do not have a high magnetic field at the light cylinder. One may suggest that there are two classes of GPs, one associated with high-energy emission from outer gaps, the other associated with polar radio emission. The GPs of PSR B0031-07 and PSR B1112+50 are of the second class. The dispersion measure DM is found to be 10.900 +/- 0.003 pc/cm^{3}.

description: The value of an innovative seed technology is estimated in a discrete stochastic programming framework for a representative farm in the northern Corn Belt. Temperature-activated polymer-coated seed has the potential to increase net returns by increasing yields due to early planting and use of longer season varieties, as well as reducing yield due to early planting and use of longer season varieties, as well as reducing yield loss due to delayed planting. A biophysical simulation model was used to estimate the impact of polymer-coated seed on corn and soybean yields and on field day availability for five planting periods, three crop varieties, and two tillage systems on two different soils under varying weather conditions.

description: Several stars detected moving at velocities near to or exceeding the Galactic escape speed likely originated in the Milky Way disc. We quantitatively explore the `binary supernova scenario' hypothesis, wherein these `hyper-runaway' stars are ejected at large peculiar velocities when their close, massive binary companions undergo a core-collapse supernova and the binary is disrupted. We perform an extensive suite of binary population synthesis simulations evolving massive systems to determine the assumptions and parameters which most impact the ejection rate of fast stars. In a simulation tailored to eject fast stars, we find the most likely hyper-runaway star progenitor binary is composed of a massive ($\sim$$30\,\mathrm{M_{\odot}}$) primary and a $\sim$$3-4\,\mathrm{M_{\odot}}$ companion on an orbital period that shrinks to $\lesssim$1 day prior to the core collapse following a common envelope phase. The black hole remnant formed from the primary must receive a natal kick $\gtrsim$1000 $\mathrm{km\ s^{-1}}$ to disrupt the binary and eject the companion at a large velocity. We compare the fast stars produced in these simulations to a contemporary census of early-type Milky Way hyper-runaway star candidates. We find that these rare objects may be produced in sufficient number only when poorly-constrained binary evolution parameters related to the strength of post-core collapse remnant natal kicks and common envelope efficiency are adjusted to values currently unsupported -- but not excluded -- by the literature. We discuss observational implications that may constrain the existence of these putative progenitor systems.

description: The measurement of top quark spin correlation is an important tool for precise studies of top quark interactions. In this letter I construct a quantization axis maximizing the spin correlation at the LHC within the Standard Model. Using this axis a spin correlation of 48% or even more, on applying additional cuts, can be reached. This represents a significant improvement compared to the helicity bases studied thus far.

 New material from Myanmar
Shan State: Hta Ein Cave, 18.8.2003, 1 ♂ (IL4). There are no previous records.
 Descriptive characters
 With a forearm length of 77.2 mm based on a single specimen from Myanmar (Table 4; FA = 70.9–77.3 mm in Bates and Harrison, 1997; 75.5–79.8 mm in Hendrichsen et al., 2001 and 70 –77.5 mm in Borissenko and Kruskop, 2003), this is the largest Ves- pertilionid bat known from the country. The pelage is a uniform dark grey-brown, almost black, on the dorsal surface. It is paler below; the hairs have dark brown roots and grey-brown tips. Unfortunately, the bacu- lum of the single male from Myanmar was damaged in preparation. In a specimen from Vietnam (HZM.4.32150), the baculum is minute and triangular in shape (Fig. 1I); the two lateral basal processes are deflected ventrally; the length is 1.4 mm and the greatest breadth 0.8 mm. With a condylocanine length of 26.7 mm, the skull is large and the rostrum is particularly robust. The second upper incisor (I3) is minute, subequal in height to the cingulum of the first incisor (I2). The first upper pre- molar (P2) is also minute, about one tenth the crown area of I2, and is displaced internally from the toothrow. The first lower premolar (P2) is half the crown area of the second (P4).
 Similar species
 Ia io is distinguished from all other Ves- pertilionid species in the region by its size.
 Compared to the local species of Pipistrel- lus (but not A. circumdatus), the second up- per incisor (I3) is greatly reduced in com- parison to the first (I2). Ecology
 Like M. mystacinus (for further details, see above), I. io was collected in a mist net set at the entrance of Hta Ein Cave.

description: This paper uses the results of a nationwide survey of coastal property owners to estimate the demand for insurance against erosion damage. The National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP) does not technically cover such damage, although in practice there is considerable uncertainty about this point. The ability to insure against such losses has implications for the choice of beach management strategies and for NFIP management. We find significant demand for insurance at prices in the range of current flood insurance premiums, although median willingness to pay appears to be less than cost of providing such insurance.

description: We discuss the statistical mechanics of a gas of gauged vortices in the canonical formalism. At critical self-coupling, and for low temperatures, it has been argued that the configuration space for vortex dynamics in each topological class of the abelian Higgs model approximately truncates to a finite-dimensional moduli space with a Kaehler structure. For the case where the vortices live on a 2-sphere, we explain how localisation formulas on the moduli spaces can be used to compute explicitly the partition function of the vortex gas interacting with a background potential. The coefficients of this analytic function provide geometrical data about the Kaehler structures, the simplest of which being their symplectic volume (computed previously by Manton using an alternative argument). We use the partition function to deduce simple results on the thermodynamics of the vortex system; in particular, the average height on the sphere is computed and provides an interesting effective picture of the ground state.

Deterministic Generation of Loss-Tolerant Photonic Cluster States with a Single Quantum Emitter

description: A photonic cluster state with a tree-type entanglement structure constitutes an efficient resource for quantum error correction of photon loss. But the generation of a tree cluster state with an arbitrary size is notoriously difficult. Here, we propose a protocol to deterministically generate photonic tree states of arbitrary size by using only a single quantum emitter. Photonic entanglement is established through both emission and re-scattering from the same emitter, enabling fast and resource-efficient entanglement generation. The same protocol can also be extended to generate more general tree-type entangled states.

This article provides two alternative theories as the basis for one line of price discovery research. Empirical models consistent with the two theories are estimated using a common data set. Empirical results differ as expected. This article evidences why the theoretical basis for an empirical model depends on clearly defining the objective(s) of the research.

description: We successfully developed a new photomultiplier tube (PMT) with a three-inch diameter, convex-shaped photocathode, R13111. Its prominent features include good performance and ultra-low radioactivity. The convex-shaped photocathode realized a large photon acceptance and good timing resolution. Low radioactivity was achieved by three factors: (1) the glass material was synthesized using low-radioactive-contamination material; (2) the photocathode was produced with $^{39}$K-enriched potassium; and (3) the purest grade of aluminum material was used for the vacuum seal. As a result each R13111 PMT contains only about 0.4 mBq of $^{226}$Ra, less than 2 mBq of $^{238}$U, 0.3 mBq of $^{228}$Ra, 2 mBq of $^{40}$K and 0.2 mBq of $^{60}$Co. We also examined and resolved the intrinsic leakage of Xe gas into PMTs that was observed in several older models. We thus succeeded in developing a PMT that has low background, large angular acceptance with high collection efficiency, good timing resolution, and long-term stable operation. These features are highly desirable for experiments searching for rare events beyond the standard model, such as dark matter particle interactions and neutrinoless double beta decay events.

Recovery from anorexia nervosa : "becoming the real me"
Creators: name: Lamoureux, Mary Mei Ha
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: Over 100,000 females in Canada are estimated to be affected with anorexia nervosa. Anorexia nervosa is a serious and persistent mental health disorder that has the highest mortality risk of any other psychiatric illness. Research into recovery from anorexia nervosa has been limited to the medical aspects of the illness with minimal attention to the actual process of recovery. The purpose of this study was to capture the patient's perspective of recovery from anorexia nervosa and to generate a theory that explains the recovery process. This grounded theory study generated a contextually-grounded description of the main theme of recovery from anorexia nervosa, Becoming the Real Me. Through the use of purposive and theoretical sampling, data was collected from nine women in open-ended interviews that were audio-taped. Analysis of these data revealed a five-stage process of recovery that did not occur in a linear step-by-step progression. Rather, the women moved in a back and forth struggle across the stages that required "a lot of hard work" and were often involved in more than one stage at any one time. Recovery, for these women, required becoming the real me, which was characterized by a complex, five-stage process: (1) Catching glimpses of light: Seeing the dangers; (2) Inching out of darkness: Encountering support and learning to trust; (3) Tolerating exposure: Taking control; (4) Gaining perspective in new light: Changing the mind set; and (5) Shedding light on self: Discovering self as "good enough." The theory generated in this study contributes to an understanding of recovery from anorexia nervosa from the women's perspectives. The theory provides a framework for understanding the unique experiences of women recovering from anorexia nervosa and direction for professionals and family members who are involved in supporting women's recovery from this illness. This theory provides a basis for continued research to more fully develop our understanding of the process of recovery from anorexia nervosa.

Subjects: subject: household food demand
subject: LA/AIDS model

description: South Africa is emerging as a major player in the world agricultural products market. This study investigates aggregate food demand patterns in South Africa using a linear approximate almost ideal demand system (LA/AIDS) modeling framework. Data from a 1993 integrated national household survey are employed in the analysis. Empirical results show that demand for meat and fish, grains, dairy products, fruits, vegetables, and other foods are generally price elastic. The expenditure elasticities imply that meat and fish and grains are luxury products, whereas dairy products, fruits, vegetables and other foods are necessities in the household diet. The results also indicate that if income of households increases food expenditure on meat and fish and grains would increase, whereas that on dairy products, fruits, vegetables, and other foods would decrease. Race, age, and gender of household head, urbanization, and family size affect food demand in South Africa.

 Taxonomic notes
 Bates and Harrison (1997) included this species for Myanmar without comment on the basis of two specimens in The Natural History Museum London (BMNH.50.468/ 472) from Sumka Uma in Kachin State. It was subsequently included as a ‘provision- al record’ in the faunal list of Bates et al. (2000). However, a study of the baculum of specimen BMNH.50.468 for this paper revealed that it was incorrectly identified and should have been referred to P. coro- mandra. Therefore, P. pipistrellus should be omitted from the Myanmar list of bat spe- cies until data supporting its presence are found.

description: A dynamic scaling Ansatz for the approach to the Self-Organized Critical (SOC) regime is proposed and tested by means of extensive simulations applied to the Bak-Sneppen model (BS), which exhibits robust SOC behavior. Considering the short-time scaling behavior of the density of sites ($ρ(t)$) below the critical value, it is shown that i) starting the dynamics with configurations such that $ρ(t=0) \to 0$ one observes an {\it initial increase} of the density with exponent $θ= 0.12(2)$; ii) using initial configurations with $ρ(t=0) \to 1$, the density decays with exponent $δ= 0.47(2)$. It is also shown that he temporal autocorrelation decays with exponent $C_a = 0.35(2)$. Using these, dynamically determined, critical exponents and suitable scaling relationships, all known exponents of the BS model can be obtained, e.g. the dynamical exponent $z = 2.10(5)$, the mass dimension exponent $D = 2.42(5)$, and the exponent of all returns of the activity $τ_{ALL} = 0.39(2)$, in excellent agreement with values already accepted and obtained within the SOC regime.

description: Genetically modified cotton varieties have the potential for increasing returns and/or decreasing labor requirements. A nonlinear optimization model is applied to a whole farm analysis for evaluating cotton production technologies. This model maximizes farm utility, composed of expected returns and their variability, at various risk aversion levels in order to evaluate cotton production technologies. Results show that while conventional cotton maximizes utility in a risk-neutral situation, transgenic cotton varieties entered into the optimal solutions as higher levels of risk aversion were considered.

description: Produce growers in Kentucky, North Carolina, and Tennessee were surveyed in 2002 to gather information about their decision making in the areas of planting, postharvest handling, marketing, and expected changes. North Carolina has proportionately more respondents with large operations, and Kentucky and Tennessee were more similar and concentrated in smaller farms. Tennessee and Kentucky respondents were less likely to have engaged in activities that were associated with the commercial distribution system. Greater reliance on the commercial distribution system on the part of North Carolina growers is consistent with more produce export activity.
Charge density waves in Weyl semimetals

description: We present a theory of charge density wave (CDW) states in Weyl semimetals and their interplay with the chiral anomaly. In particular, we demonstrate a special nature of the shortest-period CDW state, which is obtained when the separation between the Weyl nodes equals exactly half a primitive reciprocal lattice vector. Its topological properties are shown to be distinct from all other Weyl CDW states. We make a connection between this observation and the three-dimensional fractional quantum Hall state, which was recently proposed to exist in magnetic Weyl semimetals.

The Problem of Mass: Mesonic Bound States Above T_c

description: We discuss the problem of mass, noting that meson masses decrease with increasing scale as the dynamically generated condensate of "soft glue" is melted (Brown/Rho scaling). We then extend the Bielefeld LGS color singlet interaction computed for heavy quarks in a model-dependent way by including the Ampere law velocity-velocity interaction. Parameterizing the resulting interaction in terms of effective strength of the potential and including screening, we find that the masses of pi, sigma, rho and A1 excitations, 32 degrees of freedom in all, go to zero (in the chiral limit) as T goes to Tc essentially independently of the input quark (thermal) masses in the range of 1-2 GeV, calculated also in Bielefeld. We discuss other LGS which show q-bar q bound states, which we interpret as our chirally restored mesons, for T > Tc.

Propagators with the Mandelstam-Leibbrandt Prescription in the Light-Cone Gauge
Creators: name: Das, Ashok
name: Frenkel, J.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We show that the Feynman propagator in the light-cone gauge with the Mandelstam-Leibbrandt prescription has a logarithmic growth for large $\tilde{n}\cdot x$ which is related to the presence of a residual gauge invariance. Furthermore, we show that the retarded propagator for the $\tilde{n}\cdot A$ component of the gauge field develops a coordinate dependent mass which is inversely proportional to the magnitude of the transverse coordinate. We argue that this unphysical behavior may be eliminated by fixing the residual gauge degrees of freedom.

Central Bank Independence, Democracy, and Dollarization

subject: constitutional democracy
subject: democratic control

description: Is there a fundamental conflict between insulating monetary policy from popular pressures, seen as essential to sound monetary policy, and making policy responsive to the popular will, seen as fundamental to democracy? We argue that strongly independent monetary policy is not inconsistent with democratic control of policymaking, once one realizes that a key feature of democratic policymaking is the decision to remove some decisions from “day-to-day” political pressures. This is the essence of "constitutionalism," central to the functioning of democracy, by which certain decisions are made difficult to reverse. It is further argued that a conflict between popular sovereignty and policymaker independence is not unique to monetary policy, but actually characterizes most policymaking in a democracy, with institutions designed to insulate policymaking from popular pressures. A constitutional perspective implies that extreme forms of commitment, such as a dollarization, are similarly consistent with democracy. One argument for such constraints on monetary policy (as opposed to fiscal policy, for example) is agreement on what good monetary policy means.
Resolving the order parameter of High-T$_{c}$ Superconductors through quantum pumping spectroscopy

description: The order parameter of High-T$_{c}$ superconductors through a series of experiments has been quite conclusively demonstrated to not be of the normal $s-wave$ type. It is either a pure $d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}$-wave type or a mixture of a $d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}-wave$ with a small imaginary $s-wave$ or $d_{xy}-wave$ component. In this work a distinction is brought out among the four types, i.e., $s- wave$, $d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}- wave$, $d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}+is - wave$ and $d_{x^{2}-y^{2}}+id_{xy}- wave$ types with the help of quantum pumping spectroscopy. This involves a normal metal double barrier structure in contact with a High-T$_{c}$ superconductor. The pumped current, heat and noise show different characteristics with change in order parameter revealing quite easily the differences among these.

description: This report is divided into two sections. The first part reports the statewide results for each of five surveyed groups: Iowa grain marketers, Iowa grain handlers, Iowa corn processors, Iowa soybean processors, and Iowa biodiesel producers. The state-level results provide a general idea of the grain and biofuel flows that occurred and the transportation that was utilized in the biofuel-boom era. In order to gain further insights into the regional level data, we present the survey results of grain marketers and handlers in each crop reporting district (CRD) in the second part of the report.

description: This paper has a two-fold contribution. First, it examines the importance of accounting for (in)efficiency in the estimation of primal production function on the input elasticities, technical change, and calculation of returns to scale. Second, it applies a variant of the rolling regression technique to identify time-varying input elasticities, technical change, and return to scale. Empirical application to the Asian agriculture sector using Food and Agricultural Organization data from 1961-2005 indicates returns to scale are underestimated by the traditional pooled and panel models. Further, the time-varying estimates of input elasticities, technical change, and returns to scale indicate variations with each additional year of information.

description: Conformally invariant wave equations in de Sitter space, for scalar and vector fields, are introduced in the present paper. Solutions of their wave equations and the related two-point functions, in the ambient space notation, have been calculated. The ``Hilbert'' space structure and the field operator, in terms of coordinate independent de Sitter plane waves, have been defined. The construction of the paper is based on the analyticity in the complexified pseudo-Riemanian manifold, presented first by Bros et al.. Minkowskian limits of these functions are analyzed. The relation between the ambient space notation and the intrinsic coordinates is then studied in the final stage.

description: Despite the popularity of two-Higgs-doublet models (2HDMs) with a gauged abelian flavor symmetry, the allowed Yukawa textures have only been partly explored so far. In this work, we classify and compare every anomaly-free instance, in the case of having two generations of right-handed neutrinos and a type-I seesaw mechanism. We found 16 valid implementations in total, out of which 11 agree well with current experimental bounds. To our knowledge, neither of these models have been considered previously.

Modeling Dynamics in the Central Regions of Disk Galaxies

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The central regions of disk galaxies are hosts to supermassive black holes whose masses show a tight correlation with the properties of surrounding stellar bulges. While the exact origin of this dependency is not clear, it can be related to the very basic properties of dark matter halos and the associated gas and stellar dynamics in the central kpc of host galaxies. In this review we discuss some of the recent developments in modeling the wide spectrum of dynamical processes which can be affiliated with the above phenomena, such as the structure of molecular tori in AGN, structure formation in triaxial halos, and dissipative and non-dissipative dynamics in nested bar systems, with a particular emphasis on decoupling of gaseous nuclear bars. We also briefly touch on the subject of fueling the nuclear starbursts and AGN.

subject: Collective Trademarks

description: Several recent cases judged by the Court of Justice of the European Communities have raised interesting issues on the possibility for operators of food chains to use national quality signs indicating a territory of origin, different from the European regulatory ones (Protected Geographical Indications). These various attempts from France, Germany and Belgium were all condemned as protectionist policies contradicting the free movement of goods between Member States in the European Market. However, the condemned national policies can be seen as defending the viability of specific kinds of activities (of small enterprises) in specific places (rural areas). These cases as a consequence, form a good illustration of the difficulty that a government faces while trying to make compatible the protection of certain traditional activities with free markets. Exploring this idea, the presentation of the court rulings is developed in the first section. In the second section, the economic theoretical categories these cases raised are investigated. This helps to answer to the question of the best way to ensure market niches through products’ quality in the context analysed. Collective trademark as a form of intellectual property right is in particular highlighted. The third section considers the Court decisions on this basis.

description: We show that the cross sections of the $Θ^+$-pentaquark production in different processes decrease with energy faster than the cross sections of production of the conventional three-quark hyperons. Therefore, the threshold region with the initial energy of a few GeV or less seemsto be more favorable for the production and experimental study of $Θ^+$-pentaquark.

Insights into nuclear saturation density from parity violating electron scattering

description: The saturation density of nuclear matter $ρ_0$ is a fundamental nuclear physics property that is difficult to predict from fundamental principles. The saturation density is closely related to the interior density of a heavy nucleus, such as $^{208}$Pb. We use parity violating electron scattering to determine the average interior weak charge and baryon densities in $^{208}$Pb. This requires not only measuring the weak radius $R_{\rm wk}$ but also determining the surface thickness of the weak charge density $a$. We obtain $ρ_0=0.150\pm0.010$ fm$^{-3}$, where the 7\% error has contributions form the PREX error on the weak radius, an assumed 10\% uncertainty in the surface thickness $a$, and from the extrapolation to infinite nuclear matter. These errors can be improved with the upcoming PREX II results and with a new parity violating electron scattering experiment, at a somewhat higher momentum transfer, to determine $a$.

description: SMEs, that represent the greater part of European food firms producing traditional food products (TFPs), meet difficulties in adapting their strategies to market changes, and in competing with big enterprises. Marketing management capabilities play a key role in good SMEs performance in the market. The purpose of this paper is to evaluate the marketing capabilities of SMEs that produce TFPs. The theoretical framework considers the Market Orientation approach and marketing management capabilities in terms of marketing research, marketing strategy, planning and implementation, control and evaluation. A self evaluation tool was developed by means of an interactive questionnaire, available on the web, aimed at assessing traditional food firms competitive position in the marketing area. The sample consists of 112 Italian firms. Descriptive analysis shows that the most problematic dimensions of the marketing management are planning and implementation and control and evaluation. Moreover, the firms’ size is not a relevant feature to determine the marketing capabilities, whereas quality voluntary certifications have a direct linkage with marketing capabilities, as the more a firm is certified the more t improves its marketing performance. Linear Regression model confirms these results.
