description: It is shown that in resistive nanowires out of equilibrium containing either single- or two-channel Kondo impurities the distribution function $f(E,U)$ obeys scaling behavior in terms of the quasiparticle energy $E$ and the bias voltage $U$. The numerically calculated $f(E,U)$ curves explain quantitatively recent experiments on Cu and Au nanowires. The systematics of the impurity concentration c_{imp} extracted from the comparison between theory and results on various Cu and Au samples strongly suggests that in these systems the scaling arises from magnetic Kondo impurities.

description: The Hilbert space $\mathcal H$ of backward renormalisation of an anyonic quantum spin chain affords a unitary representation of Thompson's group $F$ via local scale transformations. Given a vector in the canonical dense subspace of $\mathcal H$ we show how to calculate the corresponding spectral measure for any element of $F$ and illustrate with some examples. Introducing the "essential part" of an element we show that the spectral measure of any vector in $\mathcal H$ is, apart from possibly finitely many eigenvalues, absolutely continuous with respect to Lebesgue measure. The same considerations and results hold for the Brown-Thompson groups $F_n$ (for which $F=F_2$).

Subjects: subject: FOS: Social and economic geography

description: Thailand is considered one of the six most significant contributors to marine plastic pollution in the world. This has led to widespread media attention and condemnation of Thai people as “addicted to plastic,” with little attention paid to how such discourses actually take shape. Drawing from semi-structured interviews with Thai regulatory institutions, grassroots environmental organizations, plastic industry representatives, and recyclers, I analyze the social, political, economic, and environmental processes that shape Thailand’s plasticscapes. I propose a feminist political ecology of plastic waste which attends to people’s lived experiences and perspectives, power relationships underlying discourses that inform the issue, and Thai activisms. Following feminist ethnographic scholarship on the importance of situated knowledges that challenge dominant forms of expertise, I complicate current understandings by revealing that discourses across all groups interviewed center Thai consumption, often drawing on environmental tropes of Thainess, while decentering other potential sources of waste such as plastic waste imports. Meanwhile, findings suggest that those in power are reticent to alleviate the plastic pileup through measures that would challenge plastic production. Grassroots environmental organizers calling for strengthened regulatory measures struggle to find a voice in large-scale environmental improvement schemes. Therefore, I argue that proposed solutions must incorporate grassroots voices.

Solar Neutrinos with Magnetic Moment: Rates and Global Analysis
Creators: name: Pulido, Joao
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A statistical analysis of the solar neutrino data is presented assuming the solar neutrino deficit to be resolved by the resonant interaction of the neutrino magnetic moment with the solar magnetic field. Four field profiles are investigated, all exhibiting a rapid increase across the bottom of the convective zone, one of them closely following the requirements from recent solar physics investigations. First a 'rates only' analysis is performed whose best fits appear to be remarkably better than all fits from oscillations. A global analysis then follows with the corresponding best fits of a comparable quality to the LMA one. Despite the fact that the resonant spin flavour precession does not predict any day/night effect, the separate SuperKamiokande day and night data are included in the analysis in order to allow for a direct comparison with oscillation scenarios. Remarkably enough, the best fit for rates and global analysis which is compatible with most astrophysical bounds on the neutrino magnetic moment is obtained from the profile which most closely follows solar physics requirements. Allowing for a peak field value of $3\times10^5G$, it is found in this case that $Δm^2_{21}=1.45\times10^{-8}eV^2$, $μ_ν=3.2\times10^{-12}μ_{B}$ (65%CL). The new forthcoming experiments on solar neutrino physics (Kamland and Borexino) will be essential to ascertain whether this fact is incidental or essential.

description: We study the Josephson effect in alkali atomic gases within the two-mode approximation and show that there is a correspondence between the Bogoliubov description and the harmonic limit of the phase representation. We demonstrate that the quanta of the Josephson plasmon can be identified with the Bogoliubov excitations of the two-site Bose fluid. We thus establish a mapping between the Bogoliubov approximation for the many-body theory and the linearized pendulum Hamiltonian.

Subjects: Anxiety, neonate, sociodemographic, maternal factors, infant factors

description: Background:  Various  factors  operating  in  the child, mother and the environment in the NICU cause   considerable   anxiety   in   the   mothers leading  to  further  stress  and  other  parenting issues.   Hence   it   is   important   to   understand the  level  and  type  of  anxiety  in  these  mothers which would affect the mother. Thus, it becomes important  to  understand  the  levels  of  anxiety experienced  by  the  parents  and  its  association between  various  sociodemographic  factors  in mother and infant characteristics. Methodology: This  cross-sectional  study  was  conceived  to assess  the  anxiety  levels  and  100  mothers  were recruited after getting appropriate approvals and consent  from  them.  Data  was  collected  using  a preset questionnaire and State and Trait Anxiety inventory scale. Results: When both parents were interviewed, 91% of mothers and 43% of fathers were found to be anxious. A significant difference was  found  in  the  values  of  2  types  of  anxiety (State anxiety and Trait anxiety levels). Though State  anxiety  levels  were  significantly  different between mothers and fathers of NICU babies with mothers experiencing more anxiety levels when compared with fathers, trait levels were the same. 

Except for supporting family members, none of the factors like age, educational status, occupation, or income level had any significance between the state or trait anxiety levels. When mothers were allowed  to  handle  babies  gently,  there  was  a significant reduction in State anxiety levels,while Trait  anxiety  levels  remained  unchanged.  None of  the  other  baby  factors  including  low  birth weight had a significant effect on anxiety in the long run. Conclusion: This study brings out the importance  of  addressing  anxiety  in  mothers with NICU babies; to assess the type of anxiety separately and deal with the factors thatincrease it  separately.  It  also  brings  out  the  fact  that  the general nature of the parent which brings out the trait  was  not  influenced  considerably  by  NICU admissions.

description: Weyl fermions as emergent quasiparticles can arise in Weyl semimetals (WSMs) in which the energy bands are nondegenerate, resulting from inversion or time-reversal symmetry breaking. Nevertheless, experimental evidence for magnetically induced WSMs is scarce. Here, using photoemission spectroscopy, we observe that the degeneracy of Bloch bands is already lifted in the paramagnetic phase of EuCd$_2$As$_2$. We attribute this effect to the itinerant electrons experiencing quasistatic and quasi-long-range ferromagnetic fluctuations. Moreover, the spin nondegenerate band structure harbors a pair of ideal Weyl nodes near the Fermi level. Hence, we show that long-range magnetic order and the spontaneous breaking of time-reversal symmetry are not an essential requirement for WSM states in centrosymmetric systems, and that WSM states can emerge in a wider range of condensed-matter systems than previously thought.

S=1 kagomé Ising model with triquadratic interactions, single-ion anisotropy and magnetic field: exact phase diagrams

Year: 2002
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)

description: We consider a S=1 kagomé Ising model with triquadratic interactions around each triangular face of the kagomé lattice, single-ion anisotropy and an applied magnetic field. A mapping establishes an equivalence between the magnetic canonical partition function of the model and the grand canonical partition function of a kagomé lattice-gas model with localized three-particle interactions. Since exact phase diagrams are known for condensation in the one-parameter lattice-gas model, the mapping directly provides the corresponding exact phase diagrams of the three-parameter S=1 Ising model. As anisotropy competes with interactions, results include the appearance of confluent singularities effecting changes in the topology of the phase diagrams, phase boundary curves (magnetic field vs temperature) with purely positive or negative slopes as well as intermediate cases showing nonmonotonicity, and coexistence curves (magnetization vs temperature) with varying shapes and orientations, in some instances entrapping a homogeneous phase.

description: As universities look to source “sustainable” products, it is critical to understand student demand and the economic feasibility of adding new sustainable products. Using an online survey in conjunction with a Tobit model we find that half of students in our sample are willing to pay more for increased local and organic food options with only a third willing to pay more for increased non-GMO options. The economic feasibility of adding new local, organic, and non-GMO options is questionable as charging students for their willingness to pay results in only a 1–2% gain in revenue which may not cover the cost of more options in on-campus dining halls.

description: A photoelectron forced to pass through two atomic energy levels before receding from the residual ion shows interference fringes in its angular distribution as manifestation of a two-slit-type interference experiment in wave-vector space. This scenario was experimentally realized by irradiating a Rubidium atom by two low-intensity continuous-wave lasers [Pursehouse et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. 122, 053204 (2019)]. In a one-photon process the first laser excites the 5p level while the second uncorrelated photon elevates the excited population to the continuum. This same continuum state can also be reached when the second laser excites the 6p state and the first photon then triggers the ionization. As the two lasers are weak and their relative phases uncorrelated, the coherence needed for generating the interference stems from the atom itself. Increasing the intensity or shortening the laser pulses enhances the probability that two photons from both lasers act at the same time, and hence the coherence properties of the applied lasers are expected to affect the interference fringes. Here, this aspect is investigated in detail, and it is shown how tuning the temporal shapes of the laser pulses allows for tracing the time-dependence of the interference fringes. We also study the influence of applying a third laser field with a random amplitude, resulting in a random fluctuation of one of the ionization amplitudes and discuss how the interference fringes are affected.

Charmonium at finite temperature in quenched lattice QCD

description: We study charmonium correlators in pseudoscalar and vector channels at finite temperature using lattice QCD simulation in the quenched approximation. Anisotropic lattices are used in order to have sufficient numbers of degrees of freedom in the Euclidean temporal direction. We focus on the low energy structure of the spectral function, corresponding to the ground state in the hadron phase, by applying the smearing technique to enhance the contribution to the correlator from this region. We employ two analysis procedures: the maximum entropy method (MEM) for the extraction of the spectral function without assuming a specific form, to estimate the shape of the spectral function, and the standard $χ^2$ fit analysis using typical forms in accordance with the result of MEM, for a more quantitative evaluation. To verify the applicability of the procedures, we first analyze the smeared correlators as well as the point correlators at zero temperature. We find that by shortening the $t$-interval used for the analysis (a situation inevitable at $T>0$) the reliability of MEM for point correlators is lost, while it subsists for smeared correlators. Then the smeared correlators at $T\simeq 0.9 T_c$ and $1.1 T_c$ are analyzed. At $T\simeq 0.9 T_c$, the spectral function exhibits a strong peak, well approximated by a delta function corresponding to the ground state with almost the same mass as at T=0. At $T\simeq 1.1 T_c$, we find that the strong peak structure still persists at almost the same place as below $T_c$, but with a finite width of a few hundred MeV. This result indicates that the correlators possess a nontrivial structure even in the deconfined phase.

description: This research investigated market barriers faced by formal and informal vendors of traditional vegetables in Kenya, with the goal of closing market gaps and improving consumer access. The most common problem was access to capital, but informal vendors were more likely than formal vendors to perceive this as a major problem. Overall, 97% of vendors said that they had seen the vegetable market grow, which suggests that this market is still expanding. To improve urban nutritional security, the most important changes policymakers could enact are to increase access to capital and improve infrastructure to connect rural growers with urban consumers.

description: There are scant studies that examine farm-retailer dynamics, despite growing interest in local food markets and the fact that most local food is sold to intermediaries (like retailers). To address this gap we conducted a case study in Hawai’i, the state with the highest percentage of farms selling direct to retail in the United States. Results show a statistically significant relationship between the number of farms from which a grocery store purchases product and the grocery store’s average markup for food products, rather than with the store’s gross sales as one might expect.

description: The need for farmers to participate more directly in the process of agricultural technology development is becoming widely accepted. This is particularly true for research programs targeted on resource-poor farmers in environments that are diverse, complex and risk-prone. The next step is to develop efficient and effective participatory models that can be institutionalized in national agricultural research and extension systems. This paper presents the experience of a research program in the Francistown Region of Botswana that has worked with one participatory method (farmer groups) for the past 7 years. The program is part of the Department of Agricultural Research, within Botswana's Ministry of Agriculture. The paper discusses the need for farmer participation, the use of groups of farmers, the magnitude of and output from this activity, the benefits obtained, the issues that arose during the development of the method, and conclusions from the experience. Farmer participation in tile research program was through research-oriented groups. These groups provided a forum for the joint design, testing and evaluation of a wide range of technology options by both researchers and farmers. Local extension personnel also participated. Eventually, over 120 farmers (from three villages) participated in the program. The farmers implemented up to 140 trials annually, involving up to 14 different technology options. Farmers' problems and evaluations of technology options were discussed at monthly meetings and quantified in an end-of-season survey. Simultaneously, researchers were able to evaluate the technical performance of these innovations at diverse sites across the region. Though the groups were only one part of the total regional research program, they contributed a great deal. The benefits included expanded research capacity; increased efficiency in the research program; and stronger links between the on-farm research program and farmers, extension personnel and station-based research programs. Farmers' interest in the group activities was evident from the rapid early growth of the groups and sustained farmer participation over the years. The group approach has recently been modified for use as an extension tool and adopted by the extension service in Botswana at the pilot program level. Farmer participation has had an impact on the direction of the research program and the relevance of research output. The experience indicates that it is possible to develop effective, cost-efficient methods for farmer participation in the technology development process within a national agricultural research system.

description: Driven vortex lattices have been studied in a material with strong pinning, such as Nb films. Samples in which natural random pinning coexists with artificial ordered arrays of defects (submicrometric Ni dots) have been fabricated with different geometries (square, triangular and rectangular). Three different dynamic regimes are found: for low vortex velocities, there is a plastic regime in which random defects frustrate the effect of the ordered array; then, for vortex velocities in the range 1-100 m/s, there is a sudden increase in the interaction between the vortex lattice and the ordered dot array, independent on the geometry. This effect is associated to the onset of quasi long range order in the vortex lattice leading to an increase in the overlap between the vortex lattice and the magnetic dots array. Finally, at larger velocities the ordered array-vortex lattice interaction is suppresed again, in agreement with the behavior found in numerical simulations.

description: This article investigates consumer preferences for Delacata catfish, a relatively new fillet of grade-A catfish, by conducting in-person choice experiments with tasting sessions. Panels were held at three white-tablecloth restaurants across the United States, featuring sample entrées of Delacata catfish along with sample entrées of other species of mild-tasting, white-fleshed fish. Results suggest that Delacata catfish may fare well in terms of search and experience attributes such as taste and texture, across all locations, but may face labeling challenges in certain locations. This study provides willingness-to-pay estimates and discusses possible marketing strategies to further increase market potential for the US fish industry.

description: A steadily increasing number of foreign agricultural workers are being hired through the H-2A visa program. This paper outlines important components of the H-2A program as a discussion of two sections – pre-employment hiring and management during the contract period. A 2014 survey of Florida citrus harvesting companies gathered cost data on the pre-employment components, which include filing fees, visa costs, advertising, bond payments, in-country worker recruitment, in-bound and out-bound transportation from Mexico, and housing rental costs. Pre-employment/hiring costs were estimated to be more than $1,900 per worker with housing and travel costs responsible for 60 and 20% of total costs, respectively. The paper describes how the H-2A program changes the employment status of workers with the resulting consequences on how H-2A workers are managed differently than domestic workers. More research is needed to estimate the net financial implications to employers when they shift from domestic to H-2A workers.

description: The lightest supersymmetric particle, most likely the lightest neutralino, is one of the most prominent particle candidates for cold dark matter (CDM). We show that the primordial spectrum of density fluctuations in neutralino CDM has a sharp cut-off, induced by two different damping mechanisms. During the kinetic decoupling of neutralinos, non-equilibrium processes constitute viscosity effects, which damp or even absorb density perturbations in CDM. After the last scattering of neutralinos, free streaming induces neutralino flows from overdense to underdense regions of space. Both damping mechanisms together define a minimal mass scale for perturbations in neutralino CDM, before the inhomogeneities enter the nonlinear epoch of structure formation. We find that the very first gravitationally bound neutralino clouds ought to have masses above 10^{-6} solar masses, which is six orders of magnitude above the mass of possible axion miniclusters.

description: We determine both the in-plane and out-of-plane dynamics of viscoelastic membranes separating two viscous fluids in order to understand microrheological studies of such membranes. We demonstrate the general viscoelastic signatures in the dynamics of shear, bending, and compression modes. We also find a screening of the otherwise two-dimensional character of the response to point forces due to the presence of solvent. Finally, we show that there is a linear, hydrodynamic coupling between the in-plane compression modes of the membrane and the out-of-plane bending modes in the case where the membrane separates two different fluids or environments.

description: Economic studies of firm survival suggest that capital acquisition and asset fixity are some of the biggest challenges facing start-up firms today, especially in rural areas. The Value-Added Producer Grant (VAPG) program was established by USDA’s Rural Business-Cooperative Service in 2001 to help independent producers and similar organizations develop value-added agricultural businesses, many of which are located in rural areas. Utilizing information on Value-Added Producer Grant recipients from 2001 to 2011 in Iowa and North Carolina coupled with National Establishment Time-Series data from 1990 to 2011, we use survival analysis to estimate the effects of a VAPG on firm survival. Recipients are matched with firms in the same industry and state, starting in the same year, who did not receive VAPG funding to estimate the effect of the grant on firm survival. Preliminary results suggest that, after controlling for other characteristics than affect firms survival, receiving a VAPG had a positive and significant impact on firm survival length. For start-up firms, preliminary estimates suggest that survival times are nearly doubled. For more established firms (those that were in business at least three years before receiving a grant), the effects are larger, with survival times increasing 6 times for recipient firms.
Langevin dynamics of the Coulomb frustrated ferromagnet: a mode-coupling analysis

description: We study the Langevin dynamics of the soft-spin, continuum version of the Coulomb frustrated Ising ferromagnet. By using the dynamical mode-coupling approximation, supplemented by reasonable approximations for describing the equilibrium static correlation function, and the somewhat improved dynamical self-consistent screening approximation, we find that the system displays a transition from an ergodic to a non-ergodic behavior. This transition is similar to that obtained in the idealized mode-coupling theory of glassforming liquids and in the mean-field generalized spin glasses with one-step replica symmetry breaking. The significance of this result and the relation to the appearance of a complex free-energy landscape are also discussed.

description: This article examines Kenya’s household demand for major roots and tubers using data obtained from Kenya Integrated Household Survey of 2005-2006. The normalized data is analyzed using the Linear Approximation Almost Ideal Demand System (LA-AIDS) model with symmetry and homogeneity restrictions imposed. Estimated own-price elasticities indicate that the demand for potato, sweet potato, arrow roots, and cooking bananas are elastic while the demand for cassava is price inelastic. Estimated cross-price elasticities suggest that potato and sweet potato, potato and arrow roots, and potato and cooking bananas are substitutes while potato and cassava are compliments. Estimated income elasticities for potatoes and cassava are positive but less than one, thus these are necessity food items in Kenya’s roots and tubers demand system. However, estimated income elasticities for sweet potato, arrow roots, and cooking bananas are all positive and greater than one implying that these are luxury food items for the Kenyan households. Keywords Root and tubers, Linear Approximate Almost Ideal Demand System (LA-AIDS), Marshallian Elasticity, Hickisian Elasticity.

Disasters, Continuity, and the Pathological Normal
Creators: name: Hagen, Ryan

Publisher: name: Sociologica

description: In this introductory essay to our symposium we argue that “Sociology After COVID-19” needs to center “disaster” itself as an object of study and theory, and that doing so can productively reframe sociology’s fundamental concerns. Building off nascent interdisciplinary work in critical disaster studies, as well as on the insights of our own contributors, we advance and elaborate two theses. First, while disasters are disruptive, they are not purely so; as they unfold, they enfold continuities such that they are best understood as a part of social reality rather than apart from it. Second, disasters are not pathological deviations from “normal” so much as they are the most salient manifestations of the ways that the normal is in fact pathological. A more critical approach to disaster can lead sociologists to examine more closely the interrelationship between the production of continuities and ruptures in social and economic life, enriching our understanding of core disciplinary concerns about social change, stratification, and inequality.
