description: We perform a multi-tracer analysis using the complete Sloan Digital Sky Survey IV (SDSS-IV) extended Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey (eBOSS) DR16 luminous red galaxy (LRG) and the DR16 emission line galaxy (ELG) samples in the configuration space, and successfully detect a cross correlation between the two samples, and find the growth rate to be $fσ_8=0.342 \pm 0.085$ ($\sim25$ per cent accuracy) from the cross sample alone. We perform a joint measurement of the baryonic acoustic oscillation (BAO) and redshift space distortion (RSD) parameters at a single effective redshift of $z_{\rm eff}= 0.77$, using the auto- and cross-correlation functions of the LRG and ELG samples, and find that the comoving angular diameter distance $D_M(z_{\rm eff})/r_d = 18.85\pm 0.38$, the Hubble distance $D_H(z_{\rm eff})/r_d = 19.64 \pm 0.57$, and $fσ_8(z_{\rm eff}) = 0.432 \pm 0.038$, which is consistent with a $Λ$CDM model at $68\%$ CL. Compared to the single-tracer analysis on the LRG sample, the Figure of Merit (FoM) of $α_{\perp}, α_{||}$ and $fσ_8$ is improved by a factor of $1.11$ in our multi-tracer analysis, and in particular, the statistical uncertainty of $fσ_8$ is reduced by $11.6 \%$.

description: The analysis was completed for one year, namely, 2001 using the FAPRI baseline rice price of $6.29/cwt. as the mean price for 2001. Risk for price and yields was incorporated into the analysis to appropriately replicate the historical variability for these variables. The counter cyclical payment (CCP) payments were calculated based on a national revenue. CCP payments were assumed to be triggered if total planted acre market receipts for rice (national planted acre yield times national season average price) was less than the average national planted acre receipts for a particular base period.

Visual field effects in letter matching : an exploration of hemispheric, attentional, and strategic biases
Creators: name: Fecteau, Jillian
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: It is easier to determine the identity of a pair of mixed-case letters when they appear on opposite sides of fixation (across-display) than when presented on the same side (within-display). This across-display advantage is taken as evidence by some that the hemispheres can each process letter identity independently (computational complexity theory, Banich, 1998). One unexplored feature of the across-display advantage is that it typically occurs in conjunction with a left-field advantage. If a within- display advantage is obtained instead, it typically occurs in conjunction with a right-field advantage. One reason for studying this relationship further is because both field (left vs. right) and display (across vs. within) advantages may index hemispheric differences in attentional orienting. According to the asymmetrical orienting hypothesis, the left hemisphere orients to right space, generating both right-field and within-display advantages for some tasks. The right hemisphere orients most efficiently to left space, generating a weak left-field advantage, but it can also orient to right space, contributing to an across-display advantage in other tasks. These interpretations were tested in a total of 8 experiments, involving 242 participants. Experiments 1 &2 confirmed the correlation between left-field and across-display advantages in mixed-case letter rmtching. Experiment 3 revealed similar left-field and across-display advantages in same-case letter matching when a task irrelevant dimension (color) was added. Experiments 4-6 tested matching tasks and response modes favoring the left hemisphere (localization, color reporting, rmtching on rhyme) in an effort to dissociate the field and display effects. This was unsuccessful. Finally, in Experiments 7 and 8, participants were instructed to mentally compare letters in a strict order. This lead to a mimicking of the standard data pattern, or its elimination, depending on which instructions were followed. These findings do not support either theory because strategic effects should not affect parallel processing or hemispheric differences in attentional orienting. The implications are discussed with regard to hemispheric interactions, attentional orienting, and the more general problem of estabfohing priority in visual processing. A qualitative model is presented to account for the data, involving both top-down strategic biases (left-to-right comparison) and bottom-up processing biases (opposite-direction orienting).

description: We present an end-to-end, interpretable, deep-learning architecture to learn a graph kernel that predicts the outcome of chronic disease drug prescription. This is achieved through a deep metric learning collaborative with a Support Vector Machine objective using a graphical representation of Electronic Health Records. We formulate the predictive model as a binary graph classification problem with an adaptive learned graph kernel through novel cross-global attention node matching between patient graphs, simultaneously computing on multiple graphs without training pair or triplet generation. Results using the Taiwanese National Health Insurance Research Database demonstrate that our approach outperforms current start-of-the-art models both in terms of accuracy and interpretability.

description: We study quantum squeezing and entanglement of gap solitons in a Bose-Einstein condensate loaded into a one-dimensional optical lattice. By employing a linearized quantum theory we find that quantum noise squeezing of gap solitons, produced during their evolution, is enhanced compared with the atomic solitons in a lattice-free case due to intra-soliton structure of quantum correlations induced by the Bragg scattering in the periodic potential. We also show that nonlinear interaction of gap solitons in dynamically stable bound states can produce strong soliton entanglement.

description: We present UBVRcIc photometric study of three intermediate age open star clusters NGC 381, NGC 2360, and Berkeley 68 (Be 68). We examine the cluster membership of stars using recently released Gaia DR2 proper motions and obtain a total of 116, 332, and 264 member stars in these three clusters. The mean reddening of E(B - V) = 0.36+/-0.04, 0.08+/-0.03, and 0.52+/-0.04 mag are found in the direction of these clusters where we observe an anomalous reddening towards NGC 381. We fitted the solar metallicity isochrones to determine age and distance of the clusters which are found to be log(Age) = 8.65+/-0.05, 8.95+/-0.05, and 9.25+/-0.05 yr with the respective distance of 957+/-152, 982+/-132, and 2554+/-387 pc for the clusters NGC 381, NGC 2360, and Be 68. A two-stage power law in the mass function (MF) slope is observed in the cluster NGC 381, however, we observe only a single MF slope in the clusters NGC 2360 and Be68. To study a possible spatial variation in the slope of MF we estimate slopes separately in the inner and the outer regions of these clusters and notice a steeper slope in outer region. The dynamic study of these clusters reveals deficiency of low-mass stars in their inner regions suggesting the mass segregation process in all these clusters. The relaxation times of 48.5, 78.9, and 87.6 Myr are obtained for the clusters NGC 381, NGC 2360, and Be 68, respectively which are well below to their respective ages. This suggests that all the clusters are dynamically relaxed.

Livestock Production/Industries

description: The wool and mohair industries have been in a period of radical transition over the last few years. A number of issues have adversely impacted wool and mohair producers. These include loss of milling infrastructure, world economic events that have severely damaged export markets, increasing imports of lamb, and severe drought. This analysis builds on an econometric model of the sheep and angora goat industries. The models estimate and project supply, demand, and price. Projections are made over the 2001-2005 period. Simulation modeling techniques are used to develop probabilities of outcomes. That allows for the development of average government costs and probabilities of costs in each year. Loan rates are developed using cotton as the model. The current cotton base loan rate of $0.519 per pound is evaluated relative to estimates of cotton variable costs of production. That relative level of support is maintained relative to costs of production for wool and mohair. Because wool and mohair have another product (meat), typical returns for meat are subtracted out of costs to develop a wool and mohair production cost.

description: We investigate the mutual information and entanglement of stationary state of two locally driven qubits under the influence of collective dephasing. It is shown that both the mutual information and the entanglement of two qubits in the stationary state exhibit damped oscillation with the scaled action time $γ{T}$ of the local external driving field. It means that we can control both the entanglement and total correlation of the stationary state of two qubits by adjusting the action time of the driving field. We also consider the influence of collective dephasing on entanglement of two qutrits and obtain the sufficient condition that the stationary state is entangled.

description: We investigate an effective model of proximity modified graphene (or symmetrylike materials) with broken time-reversal symmetry. We predict the appearance of quantum anomalous Hall phases by computing bulk band gap and Chern numbers for benchmark combinations of system parameters. Allowing for staggered exchange field enables quantum anomalous Hall effect in flat graphene with Chern number $C=1$. We explicitly show edge states in zigzag and armchair nanoribbons and explore their localization behavior. Remarkably, the combination of staggered intrinsic spin-orbit and uniform exchange coupling gives topologically protected (unlike in time-reversal systems) pseudohelical states, whose spin is opposite in opposite zigzag edges. Rotating the magnetization from out of plane to in plane makes the system trivial, allowing to control topological phase transitions. We also propose, using density functional theory, a material platform---graphene on Ising antiferromagnet MnPSe$_3$---to realize staggered exchange (pseudospin Zeeman) coupling.

description: An approximate technique for performing nonperturbative calculations in quantum SU(3) gauge theory is presented. One aspect of this nonperturbative method is the breaking down $SU(3) \to SU(2) + coset$. The procedure also uses some aspects of an old method by Heisenberg to calculate the n-point Green's function of strongly interacting, non-linear fields. Using these ideas we give approximate calculations of the 2 and 4-points Green's functions.

description: This paper presents some results of a two-year (2006-2007) research project supported by the French Ministry of Research’s funding program ECONET. One of the project’s objectives was to investigate the determinants of farm technical efficiency in New Member States before and after accession to the European Union, and in particular the role of public subsidies on this performance variable. Four countries were considered: Hungary, the Czech Republic and Slovenia, who acceded to the EU in 2004, and Romania, whose accession was in 2007. The study found that subsidies had a negative impact on farm technical efficiency in Hungary over the period 2001-2005, in the Czech dairy corporate sector over the period 2000-2004, in Slovenia over the period 1994-2003, and in the Romanian crop sector in 2005.

description: Recent experimental results demonstrate that in thin films ferroelectricity persists down to film thickness of a few unit cells. This finding opens an avenue for novel electronic devices based on ultathin ferroelectrics, but also raises questions about factors controlling ferroelectricity and the nature of the ferroelectric state at the nanoscale. Here we report a first-principles study of KNbO3 ferroelectric thin films placed between two metal electrodes, either SrRuO3 or Pt. We show that the bonding at the ferroelectric-metal interface imposes severe constraints on the displacement of atoms, destroying the bulk tetragonal soft mode in thin ferroelectric films. This does not, however, quench local polarization. If the interface bonding is sufficiently strong the ground state represents a ferroelectric double-domain structure, driven by the intrinsic oppositely-oriented dipole moments at the two interfaces. Although the critical thickness for the net polarization of KNbO3 film is finite - about 1 nm for Pt and 1.8 nm for SrRuO3 electrodes - local polarization persists down to thickness of a unit cell.

description: We study the motion of a Brownian particle subjected to Lorentz force due to an external magnetic field. Each spatial degree of freedom of the particle is coupled to a different thermostat. We show that the magnetic field results in correlation between different velocity components in the stationary state. Integrating the velocity autocorrelation matrix, we obtain the diffusion matrix that enters the Fokker-Planck equation for the probability density. The eigenvectors of the diffusion matrix do not align with the temperature axes. As a consequence the Brownian particle performs spatially correlated diffusion. We further show that in the presence of an isotropic confining potential, an unusual, flux-free steady state emerges which is characterized by a non-Boltzmann density distribution, which can be rotated by reversing the magnetic field. The nontrivial steady state properties of our system result from the Lorentz force induced coupling of the spatial degrees of freedom which cease to exist in equilibrium corresponding to a single-temperature system.

description: This paper investigates the impact of CAP subsidies on the competitiveness of dairy farms in Germany, the Netherlands, and Sweden. Technical efficiency results show that coupled subsidies have negative impacts in Germany and the Netherlands, but no significant impacts in Sweden. Decoupled subsidies negatively affect technical efficiency in each country and to a larger extent than coupled subsidies. Relative productivity results indicate that Dutch technology leads to the highest output, followed by technologies in Germany and Sweden. Dutch farms can improve their competitiveness by exploring their current production potential. Besides improving efficiency, German and Swedish farms may have options to improve their production technology.

description: This study examines how behavioral indicators co-occur as “risk profiles” across different domains relevant to risk assessment as theorized by a Risk Analysis Framework, and how these profiles impact upon vulnerability to radicalization. We unpack both the inter- and intra-domain relationships among profiles, identifying the relative importance of cumulative or interactive effects. We apply latent class analysis, a series of ANOVAs, and moderator analyses to a sample of the UK population (n = 1,500). We examine how the risk profiles relate to scores on the Radicalism Intention Scale, and how profiles relate to, and interact with, one another. Our results suggest that radicalization risk emerges fundamentally from both the interaction and cumulation of processes at different levels of analysis and is therefore highly context dependent. Risk assessment should rely less on quantifying specific indicators and attend to correctly inferring their functional relevance to the risk being assessed.

description: This paper investigates the relationship between CAP direct payments and managerial efficiency for French crop and beef farms. Managerial efficiency scores are calculated using a four-step approach that allows to disentangle managerial inefficiency from other technical inefficiency components, notably what is due to unfavourable environment conditions. Then managerial efficiency scores are regressed over a set of explanatory variables, including CAP direct payments. Our empirical application, based on individual farm data and meteorological data at the municipality level for the year 2000, shows that there is a substantial component of inefficiency that is due to unfavourable conditions. Moreover, there is a significant negative relationship between managerial efficiency and CAP direct payments for crop farms, but a positive relationship for livestock farms. The type of payments also matter, with area-based and Less Favoured Area payments reducing crop farms’ efficiency but headage and agri-environmental payments increasing beef farms’ efficiency.

description: eROSITA, launched on 13 July 2019, will be completing the first all-sky survey in the soft and medium X-ray band in nearly three decades. This 4-year survey, finishing in late 2023, will present a rich legacy for the entire astrophysics community and complement upcoming multi-wavelength surveys (with, e.g. the Large Synoptic Survey Telescope and the Dark Energy Survey). Besides the major scientific aim to study active galactic nuclei (AGN) and galaxy clusters, eROSITA will contribute significantly to X-ray studies of normal (i.e., not AGN) galaxies. Starting from multi-wavelength catalogues, we measure star formation rates and stellar masses for 60 212 galaxies constrained to distances of 50-200 Mpc. We chose this distance range to focus on the relatively unexplored volume outside the local Universe, where galaxies will be largely spatially unresolved and probe a range of X-ray luminosities that overlap with the low luminosity and/or highly obscured AGN population. We use the most recent X-ray scaling relations as well as the on-orbit eROSITA instrument performance to predict the X-ray emission from XRBs and diffuse hot gas and to perform both an analytic prediction and an end-to-end simulation using the mission simulation software, SIXTE. We consider potential contributions from hidden AGN and comment on the impact of normal galaxies on the measurement of the faint end of the AGN luminosity function. We predict that the eROSITA 4-year survey, will detect $\gtrsim$ 15 000 galaxies (3 $σ$ significance) at 50-200 Mpc, which is ~100X more normal galaxies than detected in any X-ray survey to date.

On Bars, Haloes, their Interaction and their Orbital Structure

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A live halo plays an active role in the formation and evolution of bars by participating in the angular momentum redistribution which drives the dynamical evolution. Angular momentum is emitted mainly by near-resonant material in the bar region and is absorbed mainly by near-resonant material in the halo and in the outer disc. This exchange determines the strength of the bar, the decrease of its pattern speed, as well as its morphology. Thus, contrary to previous beliefs, a halo can help the bar grow, so that bars growing in galaxies with responsive massive haloes can become stronger than bars growing in disc dominated galaxies. During the evolution the halo does not stay axisymmetric. It forms a bar which is shorter and fatter than the disc bar and stays so all through the simulation, although its length grows considerably with time. I discuss the orbital structure in the disc and the halo and compare it with periodic orbits in analytical barred galaxy potentials. A central mass concentration (e.g. a central black hole, or a central disc) weakens a bar and increases its pattern speed. The effect of the central mass concentration depends strongly on the model, being less strong in models with a massive concentrated halo and a strong bar.

EU private agrifood standards in African high-value crops: pesticide use and farm-level productivity

description: In parallel with changes in official standards, supermarket chains in Europe have developed prescriptive, production-oriented standards, e.g. the European Union Retailers Produce Working Group for Good Agricultural Practices (GlobalGAP), and are asking their suppliers for produce to be certified according to food-safety and quality standards. There are concerns that the proliferation and enhanced stringency of standards that are imposed by high-income countries can negatively affect the competitiveness of producers in developing countries and impede actors from entering or even remaining in high-value food markets. Yet, in some cases, others argue that such standards can play a positive role, providing the catalyst and incentives for the modernization of export supply and regulatory systems and the adoption of safer and more sustainable production practices. This article provides an empirical analysis of EU private food-safety standards impact on pesticide use and farm-level productivity among smallholder export vegetable producers in Kenya. We apply an extended three-stage damage control production framework that accounts for multiple endogeneity problems to farm-level data collected from a random cross-section sample of 439 small-scale vegetable producers. Estimation results show that export producers complying with private standards significantly use less toxic pesticides; however there is no significant difference on the total quantity of pesticides used. Contrary to findings elsewhere, the econometric evidences here show that export vegetable farmers in Kenya use pesticide below the economic optimum. The third stage structural revenue model results demonstrate a positive and significant impact of standards adoption on revenue of vegetable production. While food safety and quality standards can be a barrier for resource poor smallholders to maintain their position in the lucrative export markets, they can also induce positive changes in production systems of small-scale farmers who adopt it as shown by the results presented. Generally this article partly supports the notion that adoption of emerging food-safety standards can serve as a catalyst in transforming the production systems of developing countries towards safer and more sustainable production.

description: Globalization, either directly or indirectly (e.g. through structural adjustment reforms), has called for profound changes in the previously existing institutional order. Some changes adversely impacted the production and market environment of many coffee producers in developing countries resulting in more risky and less remunerative coffee transactions. This paper focuses on customization of a tropical commodity, fair-trade coffee, as an approach to mitigating the effects of worsened market conditions for small-scale coffee producers in less developed countries. fair-trade labeling is viewed as a form of “de-commodification” of coffee through product differentiation on ethical grounds. This is significant not only as a solution to the market failure caused by pervasive information asymmetries along the supply chain, but also as a means of revitalizing the agricultural-commodity-based trade of less developed countries (LDCs) that has been languishing under globalization. More specifically, fair-trade is an example of how the same strategy adopted by developed countries’ producers/ processors (i.e. the sequence product differentiation - institutional certification - advertisement) can be used by LDC producers to increase the reputation content of their outputs by transforming them from mere commodities into “decommodified” (i.e. customized and more reputed) goods. The resulting segmentation of the world coffee market makes possible to meet the demand by consumers with preference for this “(ethically) customized” coffee and to transfer a share of the accruing economic rents backward to the Fair-trade coffee producers in LDCs. It should however be stressed that this outcome cannot be taken for granted since investments are needed to promote the required institutional innovations. In Italy FTC is a niche market with very few private brands selling this product. However, an increase of FTC market share could be a big commercial opportunity for farmers in LDCs and other economic agents involved along the international coffee chain. Hence, this research explores consumers’ knowledge of labels promoting quality products, consumption coffee habits, brand loyalty, willingness to pay and market segmentation according to the heterogeneity of preferences for coffee products. The latter was assessed developing a D-efficient design where stimuli refinement was tested during two focus groups.

description: Many well-known combinatorial optimization problems can be stated over the set of acyclic orientations of an undirected graph. For example, acyclic orientations with certain diameter constraints are closely related to the optimal solutions of the vertex coloring and frequency assignment problems. In this paper we introduce a linear programming formulation of acyclic orientations with path constraints, and discuss its use in the solution of the vertex coloring problem and some versions of the frequency assignment problem. A study of the polytope associated with the formulation is presented, including proofs of which constraints of the formulation are facet-defining and the introduction of new classes of valid inequalities.
