description: The question of whether solid waste landfills affect residential property values has long been a subject of debate. Past research has resulted in mixed conclusions. The current study examines six landfills, which differ in size, operating status, and history of contamination. The effect of each landfill is estimated by the use of multiple regression. In five of the landfills, no statistically significant evidence of an effect was found. In the remaining case, evidence of an effect was found, indicating that houses in close proximity to this landfill suffered an average loss of about six percent in value.

description: A model is tested to rapidly evaluate the vibrational properties of alloys with site disorder. It is shown that length-dependent transferable force constants exist, and can be used to accurately predict the vibrational entropy of substitutionally ordered and disordered structures in Au-Cu, Au-Pd, and Cu-Pd. For each relevant force constant, a length- dependent function is determined and fitted to force constants obtained from first-principles pseudopotential calculations. We show that these transferable force constants can accurately predict vibrational entropies of L1$_{2}$-ordered and disordered phases in Cu$_{3}$Au, Au$_{3}$Pd, Pd$_{3}$Au, Cu$_{3}$Pd, and Pd$_{3}$Au. In addition, we calculate the vibrational entropy difference between L1$_{2}$-ordered and disordered phases of Au$_{3}$Cu and Cu$_{3}$Pt.

description: A five-level four-pulse phase-sensitive extended stimulated Raman adiabatic passage scheme is proposed to realize complete control of the population transfer branching ratio between two degenerate target states. The control is achieved via a three-node null eigenstate that can be correlated with an arbitrary superposition of the target states. Our results suggest that complete suppression of the yield of one of two degenerate product states, and therefore absolute selectivity in photochemistry, is achievable and predictable, even without studying the properties of the unwanted product state beforehand.

description: We explore the environment-induced synchronization phenomenon in two-level systems in contact with a thermal dissipative environment. We first discuss the conditions under which synchronization emerges between a pair of two-level particles. That is, we analyze the impact of various model parameters on the emergence of (anti-)synchronization such as the environment temperature, the direct interaction between the particles, and the distance between them controlling the collectivity of the dissipation. We then enlarge the system to be composed of three two-level atoms to study the mutual synchronization between different particle pairs. Remarkably, we observe in this case a rich synchronization dynamics which stems from different possible spatial configurations of the atoms. Particularly, in sharp contrast with the two-atom case, we show that when the three atoms are in close proximity, appearance of anti-synchronization can be obstructed across all particle pairs due to frustration.

description: We performed detailed conductivity and tunneling mesurements on the amorphous, magnetically doped material $α$-Gd$_x$Si$_{1-x}$ (GdSi), which can be driven through the metal-insulator transition by the application of an external magnetic field. Conductivity increases linearly with field near the transition and slightly slower on the metallic side. The tunneling conductance, proportional to the density of states $N(E)$, undergoes a gradual change with increasing field, from insulating, showing a soft gap at low bias, with a slightly weaker than parabolic energy dependence, i.e. $N(E) \sim E^c$, $c \lesssim 2$, towards metallic behavior, with $E^d$, $0.5 \lt d \lt 1$ energy dependence. The density of states at the Fermi level appears to be zero at low fields, as in an insulator, while the sample shows already small, but metal-like conductivity. We suggest a possible explanation to the observed effect.

description: Most of the empirical literature on migration in the context of developing countries focuses on migration from rural to urban areas. This paper aims to extend the analysis by incorporating rural-rural migration in Peru for the year of 1997. Based on a theoretical result, three empirical factors are explored in the paper using data from the Peruvian Living Standard Measurement Survey. First, wage differentials from different jobs shape the probabilities of rural-urban and rural-rural migration in distinct ways. Second, as compared with individuals that migrate to rural areas, urban migrants accumulate private wealth – in the form of durable goods - and acquire more public services. Finally, migrants are equally likely to move to a rural or an urban district as long as these are located in richer provinces.

description: Parity violating interactions in the early Universe can source a stochastic gravitational wave background (SGWB) with a net circular polarization. In this paper, we study possible ways to search for circular polarization of the SGWB with interferometers. Planar detectors are unable to measure the net circular polarization of an isotropic SGWB. We discuss the possibility of using the dipolar anisotropy kinematically induced by the motion of the solar system with respect to the cosmic reference frame to measure the net circular polarization of the SGWB with planar detectors. We apply this approach to LISA, re-assessing previous analyses by means of a more detailed computation and using the most recent instrument specifications, and to the Einstein Telescope (ET), estimating for the first time its sensitivity to circular polarization. We find that both LISA and ET, despite operating at different frequencies, could detect net circular polarization with a signal-to-noise ratio of order one in a SGWB with amplitude $h^2 Ω_\text{GW} \simeq 10^{-11}$. We also investigate the case of a network of ground based detectors. We present fully analytical, covariant formulas for the detector overlap functions in the presence of circular polarization. Our formulas do not rely on particular choices of reference frame, and can be applied to interferometers with arbitrary angles among their arms.

description: Hoping to generate employment opportunities for residents, communities often offer location incentives to businesses. But many newly created jobs may go to commuters rather than local residents, resulting in higher incentive costs per local job than perhaps anticipated. In this paper we examine the allocation of employment across space, emphasizing the propensity of commuters to “capture” jobs. Central to our work is an industry-level model of incommuting, where commuters balance employment and wage opportunities with relative housing prices and travel costs. Using data from 65 Pennsylvania counties, our empirical results suggest that the proportion of jobs filled by in-commuters varies by industry, ranging from 0.036 (farming) to 0.498 (federal government). Thus communities courting employers should recognize that local benefits of employment growth might depend on the industry. Furthermore, when recruiting industries where there is a high propensity to commute, communities should pursue regional agreements when offering incentives so as to internalize some of the spillover effects.

description: We develop a bosonization scheme for the two-dimensional electron gas in the presence of an uniform magnetic field perpendicular to the two-dimensional system when the filling factor ν= 1. We show that the elementary neutral excitations of this system, known as magnetic excitons, can be treated approximately as bosons and we apply the method to the interacting system. We show that the Hamiltonian of the fermionic system is mapped into an interacting bosonic Hamiltonian, where the dispersion relation of the bosons agrees with previous RPA calculations. The interaction term accounts for the formation of two-boson bound states. We discuss a possible relation between these excitations and the skyrmion-antiskyrmion pair, in analogy with the ferromagnetic Heisenberg model. Finally, we analyze the semiclassical limit of the interacting bosonic Hamiltonian and show that the results are in agreement with those derived from the model of Sondhi {\it et al.} for the quantum Hall skyrmion.

description: The University of Rochester infrared detector group is working together with Teledyne Imaging Sensors to develop HgCdTe 15 $μm$ cutoff wavelength detector arrays for future space missions. To reach the 15 $μm$ cutoff goal, we took an intermediate step by developing four $\sim$13 $μm$ cutoff wavelength arrays to identify any unforeseen effects related to increasing the cutoff wavelength from the extensively characterized 10 $μm$ cutoff wavelength detector arrays developed for the NEOCam mission. The characterization of the $\sim$13 $μm$ cutoff wavelength HgCdTe arrays at the University of Rochester allowed us to determine the key dark current mechanisms that limit the performance of these HgCdTe detector arrays at different temperatures and bias when the cutoff wavelength is increased. We present initial dark current and well depth measurements of a 15 $μm$ cutoff array which shows dark current values two orders of magnitude smaller at large reverse bias than would be expected from our previous best structures.

description: We introduce and study, in the framework of a theory of quantum Cartan domains, a q-analogue of the Berezin transform on the unit ball. We construct q-analogues of weighted Bergman spaces, Toeplitz operators and covariant symbol calculus. In studying the analytical properties of the Berezin transform we introduce also the q-analogue of the SU(n,1)-invariant Laplace operator (the Laplace-Beltrami operator) and present related results on harmonic analysis on the quantum ball. These are applied to obtain an analogue of one result by A.Unterberger and H.Upmeier. An explicit asymptotic formula expressing the q-Berezin transform via the q-Laplace-Beltrami operator is also derived. At the end of the paper, we give an application of our results to basic hypergeometric q-orthogonal polynomials.

description: We demonstrate that the strict upper bounds on the energy scale of inflation and on the tensor-to-scalar ratio can be somewhat relaxed if we assume that - after an initial period of slow rolling when scales probed today in CMB experiments exit the Hubble radius - the equation of state of the background changes to correspond to an almost marginally accelerating universe. Constructing an actual model in which this happens appears, however, to be unnatural.

description: Uncertainty quantification (UQ) is a vital step in using mathematical models and simulations to take decisions. The field of cardiac simulation has begun to explore and adopt UQ methods to characterise uncertainty in model inputs and how that propagates through to outputs or predictions. In this perspective piece we draw attention to an important and under-addressed source of uncertainty in our predictions -- that of uncertainty in the model structure or the equations themselves. The difference between imperfect models and reality is termed model discrepancy, and we are often uncertain as to the size and consequences of this discrepancy. Here we provide two examples of the consequences of discrepancy when calibrating models at the ion channel and action potential scales. Furthermore, we attempt to account for this discrepancy when calibrating and validating an ion channel model using different methods, based on modelling the discrepancy using Gaussian processes (GPs) and autoregressive-moving-average (ARMA) models, then highlight the advantages and shortcomings of each approach. Finally, suggestions and lines of enquiry for future work are provided.

Quantum Phase Transitions and Correlated Electrons

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: This article is aimed at a pedagogical introduction to the physics of quantum phase transitions that is unique to metallic systems. It has been recognized for some time that quantum criticality can result in a breakdown of Landau's Fermi liquid theory. Its converse, however, has not been appreciated until very recently: non-Fermi liquid behavior can in turn lead to new classes of quantum phase transition. A concrete example is provided by ``local quantum critical points''. I summarize the theoretical reasoning and experimental evidence for local quantum criticality, in the context of heavy fermion metals. The underlying physics is likely to be relevant to other correlated electron systems including doped Mott insulators.

description: We present new high resolution spectroscopic observations of the Herbig-Haro object HH 32 from System Verification observations made with the GMOS IFU at Gemini North Observatory. The 3D spectral data covers a 8''.7 x 5''.85 spatial field and 4820 - 7040 Angstrom spectral region centered on the HH~32 A knot complex. We show the position-dependent line profiles and radial velocity channel maps of the Halpha line, as well as line ratio velocity channel maps of [OIII]5007/Halpha, [OI]6300/Halpha, [NII]6583/Halpha, [SII](6716+6730)/Halpha and [SII]6716/6730. We find that the line emission and the line ratios vary significantly on spatial scales of ~1'' and over velocities of ~50 km/s. A ``3/2-D'' bow shock model is qualitatively successful at reproducing the general features of the radial velocity channel maps, but it does not show the same complexity as the data and it fails to reproduce the line ratios in our high spatial resolution maps. The observations of HH 32 A show two or three superimposed bow shocks with separations of ~3'', which we interpret as evidence of a line of sight superposition of two or three working surfaces located along the redshifted body of the HH 32 outflow.

description: Correct estimates of stellar extreme ultraviolet (EUV; 100 - 1170 Å) flux are important for studying the photochemistry and stability of exoplanet atmospheres, as EUV radiation ionizes hydrogen and contributes to the heating, expansion, and potential escape of a planet's upper atmosphere. Contamination from interstellar hydrogen makes observing EUV emission from M stars particularly difficult, and impossible past 100 pc, and necessitates other means to predict the flux in this wavelength regime. We present EUV -- infrared (100 Å- 5.5 $μ$m) synthetic spectra computed with the PHOENIX atmospheric code of three early M dwarf planet hosts: GJ 832 (M1.5 V), GJ 176 (M2.5 V), and GJ 436 (M3.5 V). These one-dimensional semiempirical nonlocal thermodynamic equilibrium models include simple temperature prescriptions for the stellar chromosphere and transition region, from where ultraviolet (UV; 100 - 3008 Å) fluxes originate. We guide our models with Hubble Space Telescope far- and near-UV spectra and discuss the ability to constrain these models using Galaxy Evolution Explorer UV photometry. Our models closely reproduce the observations and predict the unobservable EUV spectrum at a wavelength resolution of < 0.1 Å. The temperature profiles that best reproduce the observations for all three stars are described by nearly the same set of parameters, suggesting that early M type stars may have similar thermal structures in their upper atmospheres. With an impending UV observation gap and the scarcity of observed EUV spectra for stars less luminous and more distant than the Sun, upper-atmosphere models such as these are important for providing realistic spectra across short wavelengths and for advancing our understanding of the effects of radiation on planets orbiting M stars.

description: Most economists conclude that the U.S. regions have converged in per capita earnings during a majority of the 20th century, though controversy abounds over the methods employed to test for such convergence. Using time-series techniques, this paper finds evi - dence that the U.S. regions have conditionally converged in per capita earnings. The findings in this paper differ from cross-sectional studies, which implicitly assume that all regions converge toward the same steady-state and at the same rate. The findings in this paper differ from other time-series studies with its use of recursive parameter estimates.1

description: We provide two two-loop amplitudes relevant for precision Higgs physics. The first is the two-loop amplitude for Higgs boson production through gluon fusion with exact dependence on the top quark mass up to squared order in the dimensional regulator $ε$. The second result we provide is the two-loop amplitude for the decay of a Higgs boson into a pair of massive bottom quarks through the Higgs-to-gluon coupling in the infinite top mass limit. Both amplitudes are computed by finding canonical bases of master integrals, which we evaluate explicitly in terms of harmonic polylogarithms. We obtain the bare, renormalized and IR-subtracted amplitude and provide the results in terms of building blocks suitable to changing renormalization schemes.

In particular, the existence of pairing correlations in small grains and the sign of the interaction in the Cooper channel can be uniquely determined.

description: When sources are added at their right-hand sides, and g_{(ik)} is a priori assumed to be the metric, the equations of Einstein's Hermitian theory of relativity were shown to allow for an exact solution that describes the general electrostatic field of n point charges. Moreover, the injunction of spherical symmetry of g_{(ik)} in the infinitesimal neighbourhood of each of the charges was proved to yield the equilibrium conditions of the n charges in keeping with ordinary electrostatics. The tensor g_{(ik)}, however, cannot be the metric of the theory, since it enters neither the eikonal equation nor the equation of motion of uncharged test particles. A physically correct metric that rules both the behaviour of wave fronts and of uncharged matter is the one indicated by Hély. In the present paper it is shown how the electrostatic solution predicts the structure of the n charged particles and their mutual positions of electrostatic equilibrium when Hély's physically correct metric is adopted.

description: The theory of monotone Riemannian metrics on the state space of a quantum system was established by Denes Petz in 1996. In a recent paper he argued that the scalar curvature of a statistically relevant - monotone - metric can be interpreted as an average statistical uncertainty. The present paper contributes to this subject. It is reasonable to expect that states which are more mixed are less distinguishable than those which are less mixed. The manifestation of this behavior could be that for such a metric the scalar curvature has a maximum at the maximally mixed state. We show that not every monotone metric fulfils this expectation, some of them behave in a very different way. A mathematical condition is given for monotone Riemannian metrics to have a local minimum at the maximally mixed state and examples are given for such metrics.

description: Nonthermal loop-top sources in solar flares are the most prominent observational signature that suggests energy release and particle acceleration in the solar corona. Although several scenarios for particle acceleration have been proposed, the origin of the loop-top sources remains unclear. Here we present a model that combines a large-scale magnetohydrodynamic simulation of a two-ribbon flare with a particle acceleration and transport model for investigating electron acceleration by a fast-mode termination shock at the looptop. Our model provides spatially resolved electron distribution that evolves in response to the dynamic flare geometry. We find a concave-downward magnetic structure located below the flare termination shock, induced by the fast reconnection downflows. It acts as a magnetic trap to confine the electrons at the looptop for an extended period of time. The electrons are energized significantly as they cross the shock front, and eventually build up a power-law energy spectrum extending to hundreds of keV. We suggest that this particle acceleration and transport scenario driven by a flare termination shock is a viable interpretation for the observed nonthermal loop-top sources.

description: We report our studies of the potential energy surface (PES) of selected binary Lennard-Jones clusters. The effect of adding selected impurity atoms to a homogeneous cluster is explored. Inherent structures and transition states are found by combination of conjugate-gradient and eigenvector-following methods while the topography of the PES is mapped with the help of a disconnectivity analysis. We show that we can controllably induce new structures as well as reorder and stabilize existing structures that are characteristic of higher-lying minima.

description: Dietary exposure to nitrate and nitrite occurs via three main sources; occurrence in (vegetable) foods, food additives in certain processed foods and contaminants in drinking water. While nitrate can be converted to nitrite in the human body, their risk assessment is usually based on single substance exposure in different regulatory frameworks. Here, we assessed the long-term combined exposure to nitrate and nitrite from food and drinking water. Dutch monitoring data (2012–2018) and EFSA data from 2017 were used for concentration data. These were combined with data from the Dutch food consumption survey (2012–2016) to assess exposure. A conversion factor (median 0.023; range 0.008–0.07) was used to express the nitrate exposure in nitrite equivalents which was added to the nitrite exposure. The uncertainty around the conversion factor was taken into account by using conversion factors randomly sampled from the abovementioned range. The combined dietary exposure was calculated for the Dutch population (1–79 years) with different exposure scenarios to address regional differences in nitrate and nitrite concentrations in drinking water. All scenarios resulted in a combined exposure above the acceptable daily intake for nitrite ion (70 µg/kg bw), with the mean exposure varying between 95–114 µg nitrite/kg bw/day in the different scenarios. Of all ages, the combined exposure was highest in children aged 1 year with an average of 250 µg nitrite/kg bw/day. Vegetables contributed most to the combined exposure in food in all scenarios, varying from 34%–41%. Food additive use contributed 8%–9% to the exposure and drinking water contributed 3%–19%. Our study is the first to perform a combined dietary exposure assessment of nitrate and nitrite while accounting for the uncertain conversion factor. Such a combined exposure assessment overarching different regulatory frameworks and using different scenarios for drinking water is a better instrument for protecting human health than single substance exposure.

description: Prices of basic food staples and feed crops have soared in recent years, renewing concerns about the ability of global food supplies to meet the projected growth in aggregate demand. Notwithstanding these concerns, and apparently at odds with a vast body of economic evidence reporting exceptionally high rates of return to investments in agricultural R&D, growth in public R&D spending for food and agriculture has slowed worldwide, especially in rich countries. Left unchecked, the consequent slowdown in agricultural productivity will push many more people into hunger and undercut economic growth, especially in the many economies worldwide still heavily reliant on agriculture. The observed R&D spending behavior is consistent with a determination that the rate of return evidence is implausible. We examine this notion, recalibrate a new, comprehensive compilation of the evidence, and find in favor of a much reduced rate of return to research. Nonetheless, the scaling back of public agricultural R&D spending is not supported from this new economic view of the evidence.
An alternate smearing method for Wilson loops in lattice QCD

description: A gauge field link smearing method developed for calculations with staggered fermions, namely the use of unitarized fat7 links, is applied to mesonic and baryonic Wilson loop calculations. This method is found to be very effective for reducing statistical fluctuations for large Wilson loops. Examination of chromo-electric field distributions shows that self-interactions of the static sources are reduced when unitarized fat7 smearing is used but long-distance inter-quark effects are unchanged.

description: After decades of rapid change, the structure of U.S. agriculture changed little between 1974 and 1982. If those recent trends hold, they suggest the farm sector will look much the same at the end of the century as it does now, including a continuing strong presence of mid-sized farms. Those assessments are much different from what analysts were predicting a few years ago. If the recent slow pace of change continues, it will have important implications for rural communities.
Tuning Crystal Field Potential by Orbital Dilution in $d^4$ Oxides

description: We investigate the interplay between Coulomb driven orbital order and octahedral distortions in strongly correlated Mott insulators due to orbital dilution, i.e., doping by metal ions without an orbital degree of freedom. In particular, we focus on layered transition metal oxides and study the effective spin-orbital exchange due to $d^3$ substitution at $d^4$ sites. The structure of the $d^3-d^4$ spin-orbital coupling between the impurity and the host in the presence of octahedral rotations favors a distinct type of orbital polarization pointing towards the impurity and outside the impurity--host plane. This yields an effective lattice potential that generally competes with that associated with flat octahedra and, in turn, can drive an inversion of the crystal field interaction.

description: We review recent progress in the understanding of the role of multiple- and simultaneous multiple merger coalescents as models for the genealogy in idealised and real populations with exceptional reproductive behaviour. In particular, we discuss models with `skewed offspring distribution' (or under other non-classical evolutionary forces) which lead in the single locus haploid case to multiple merger coalescents, and in the multi-locus diploid case to simultaneous multiple merger coalescents. Further, we discuss inference methods under the infinitely-many sites model which allow both model selection and estimation of model parameters under these coalescents.

description: The possibility that in the mass range around $10^{-12}\ M_\odot$ most of dark matter constitutes of primordial black holes (PBHs) is a very interesting topic. To produce PBHs with this mass, the primordial scalar power spectrum needs to be enhanced to the order of 0.01 at the scale $k\sim 10^{12}\ \text{Mpc}^{-1}$. The enhanced power spectrum also produces large secondary gravitational waves at the mHz band. A phenomenological delta function power spectrum is usually used to discuss the production of PBHs and secondary gravitational waves. Based on G and k inflations, we propose a new mechanism to enhance the power spectrum at small scales by introducing a non-canonical kinetic term $[1-2G(ϕ)]X$ with the function $G(ϕ)$ having a peak. Away from the peak, $G(ϕ)$ is negligible and we recover the usual slow-roll inflation which is constrained by the cosmic microwave background anisotrpy observations. Around the peak, the slow-roll inflation transiently turns to ultra slow-roll inflation. The enhancement of the power spectrum can be obtained with generic potentials, and there is no need to fine tune the parameters in $G(ϕ)$. The energy spectrum $Ω_{GW}(f)$ of secondary gravitational waves have the characteristic power law behaviour $Ω_{GW}(f)\sim f^{n}$ and is testable by pulsar timing array and space based gravitational wave detectors.
