description: Solid polymer electrolytes are considered a promising alternative to traditional liquid electrolytes in energy storage applications because of their good mechanical properties, and excellent thermal and chemical stability. A gap, however, still exists in understanding ion transport mechanisms and improving ion transport in solid polymer electrolytes. Therefore, it is crucial to bridge composition--structure and structure--property relationships. Here we demonstrate that size asymmetry, $λ$, represented by the ratio of counterion to charged monomer size, plays a key role in both the nanostructure and in the ionic dynamics. More specifically, when the nanostructure is modified by the external electric field such that the mobility cannot be described by linear response theory, two situations arise. The ionic mobility increases as $λ$ decreases (small counterions) in the weak electrostatics (high dielectric constant) regime. Whereas in systems with strong electrostatic interactions, ionomers with higher size symmetry ($λ\approx 1$) display higher ionic mobility. Moreover, ion transport is found to be dominated by the hopping of the ions and not by moving ionic clusters (also known as "vehicular'' charge transport). These results serve as a guide for designing ion-containing polymers for ion transport related applications.

description: This study examines the effects of television advertising on consumer demand for carbonated soft drinks using a random coefficients logit model (BLP) with household and advertising data from seven U.S. cities over a three year period. We find that advertising decreases the price elasticity of demand, indicating that advertising plays predominantly a persuasive, therefore anti-competitive role in this market. Further results show that brand spillover effects are significant and that measuring advertising with gross rating points (GRPs) outperforms measuring it with expenditures, as is conventionally done. Finally, simulation results indicate that eliminating all television advertising would lower market shares of sodas as consumers migrate to other beverages such as juices, water and milk

description: Acquired Brain Injury (ABI) is a leading cause of disability both internationally and across Australia, with the propensity for profound long-term impacts on a person's psychosocial functioning, wellbeing, and quality-of-life outcomes. However, the concept of psychosocial need is not universally defined, creating significant ambiguity for practitioners who seek to address these impacts. The policy/practice nexus is where the frontline ambiguity and challenges surrounding psychosocial needs are often created and navigated. This can be due to the lack of clarity in legislation and policy about psychosocial need, the multiplicity of policies that apply to practice, a lack of designated funding programs, among other factors. Consequently, frontline organisations and practitioners who deliver legislation and policy are critical to understanding what psychosocial need is in day-to-day practice. Social workers, who work in community neurorehabilitation (CNR) to improve the psychosocial wellbeing of people living with ABI, are often challenged by the ambiguity of psychosocial need. As such, the organisational context can prove to be an important intermediary to facilitate social work practice with psychosocial need in community neurorehabilitation. The study of the ambiguity of psychosocial needs in CNR and how organisations and social workers manage this at the policy/practice nexus, is scant. Yet, it is important to understand how organisations approach this issue, and the actions and behaviours of social workers when meeting the psychosocial needs of adults with ABI. This thesis explored how frontline social workers navigate the organisational influences at the policy/practice nexus in the CNR setting when meeting the psychosocial needs of people living with ABI with the Australian context. The primary focus of this thesis was the perspectives and experiences of frontline social workers responding to psychosocial needs of people living with ABI, and organisation managers who are critical intermediaries of policy/practice. A street-level bureaucracy perspective (SLB) was used to conceptualise the policy/practice ambiguity of psychosocial needs, to investigate how social workers made sense of psychosocial need, and responded in practice, and the influencing nature of organisational settings (Brodkin, 2012; Evan, 2004; Lipsky, 1980). A SLB perspective provided an original perspective for uncovering how psychosocial need is constructed in day-to-day practice. [...]

description: This paper reports a use of a real-options valuation methodology to analyse wine grape farm investment under price and yield uncertainty. Revenue levels to incentivise entry and exit were calculated for three different sizes of wine grape farms in North West Victoria. The modelling identified lower exit and higher entry triggers than indicated by conventional net present value calculation. The wide gap of estimated indeterminacy in farm investment highlights the intertwined influence of numerous economic factors — cost structure, economies of scale, market volatility, transaction costs, and sunk and salvaged asset valuation. Drawing on these determinants of farm investment and disinvestment, the paper discusses the role of investment incentives in affecting industry transformation and the scope for policy intervention to assist structural adjustment of the wine grape sector.

description: Fruit flies are the major insect pests of fruit and vegetable production, worldwide. In developing countries, fruit crop losses are so large that they contribute significantly to reduced household food security, poor human nutrition and poverty. In addition to the direct crop losses, many countries lose export trade opportunities if they have major pest fruit fly species, while others spend considerable sums on quarantine detection and eradication procedures in order to remain free of fruit fly. Indeed, fruit flies rate with some of the major animal diseases in terms of economic losses and quarantine problems.

description: We study the compressible quantum Navier-Stokes (QNS) equations with degenerate viscosity in the three dimensional periodic domains. On the one hand, we consider QNS with additional damping terms. Motivated by the recent works [Li-Xin, arXiv:1504.06826] and [Antonelli-Spirito, Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal., 203(2012), 499--527], we construct a suitable approximate system which has smooth solutions satisfying the energy inequality and the BD entropy estimate. Using this system, we obtain the global existence of weak solutions to the compressible QNS equations with damping terms for large initial data. Moreover, we obtain some new a priori estimates, which can avoid using the assumption that the gradient of the velocity is a well-defined function, which is indeed used directly in [Vasseur-Yu, SIAM J. Math. Anal., 48 (2016), 1489--1511; Invent. Math., 206 (2016), 935--974]. On the other hand, in the absence of damping terms, we also prove the global existence of weak solutions to the compressible QNS equations without the lower bound assumption on the dispersive coefficient, which improves the previous result due to [Antonelli-Spirito, Arch. Ration. Mech. Anal., 203(2012), 499--527].

description: Behavioural innovations play an important role in animal ecology and evolution. We report a case of little egret using its beak dips as a tool to lure and catch prey goldfish in an artificial environment designed to test predator-prey behavioural foraging games. The egret mimicked the food pellets falling into the pool from a mechanical feeder that fed the goldfish at regular intervals. The falling pellets created ripples in the water that acted as a cue for the prey goldfish to come out of the cover and feed on the floating pellets. The egret learned this phenomenon through time and used its beak dips to create ripples and attract the prey outside. The egret preferably used the location of the feeder in the pool to carry out its beak dipping attempts and maximize its fish capture success. The egret attempted this behaviour more in the largest cover that provided the best refuge to the prey goldfish. The egret beak dipping attempts to lure the prey goldfish out of the cover declined through experimental time as well as with increasing prey kills. As the beak dipping behaviour did not result in a high capture rate of fish, the egret subsequently reduced its attempts through time. This case study illustrates that foraging innovations can occur through learning in laboratory conditions containing a novel but artificial environment.

description: We demonstrate a possibility to manipulate the magnetic coupling between two nanomagnets with a help of ac electric field. In the scheme suggested the magnetic coupling in question is mediated by a magnetic particle contacting with both of the nanomagnets through the tunnel barriers. The electric field providing a successive suppression of the barriers leads to pumping of magnetization through the mediating particle. Time dependent dynamics of the particle magnetization allows to to switch between ferro- and antiferromagnetic couplings.

description: COVID-19 has affected all developed countries, and deaths worldwide are likely to reach 3,000,000 by the end of 2021. So far, particular emphasis has been placed on the effects of the pandemic on mortality. However, the question that arises is whether it will affect only mortality and not the other key components of population reproduction (fertility, internal and external migration), especially in countries like Greece, affected significantly by the economic crisis in the last decade. Even if it is still too early to evaluate the CODIV impact on fertility, we estimate that the negative effects of the pandemic in this country, in combination with those of the economic crisis, have created an unfavorable environment for having a child and are likely, in the current decade, to lead to a further decline in both the fertility of the younger cohorts and a decrease of births. Thus, women born around 1980 are not expected to have more than 1.5 children while births, taking into account that the population of women of childbearing age will continue to decline, will be in the current decade 130 thousand less than those (950 thousand) of the previous one (2010-19).
Η πανδημία του COVID-19 έχει επηρεάσει όλες τις ανεπτυγμένες χώρες του πλανήτη μας αυξάνοντας τους θανάτους και μειώνοντας για πρώτη φορά τις τελευταίες δεκαετίες το προσδόκιμο ζωής. Αναπόφευκτα, ιδιαίτερη έμφαση έχει δοθεί μέχρι στιγμής στις επιπτώσεις της πανδημίας αυτής στην θνησιμότητα. Τίθεται όμως το ερώτημα εάν ο COVID-19 θα επηρεάσει αρνητικά μόνον την μεταβλητή αυτή και όχι και τις άλλες δημογραφικές μεταβλητές, ειδικότερα δε στις χώρες εκείνες που θίχθηκαν ιδιαίτερα από την οικονομική κρίση την προηγούμενη δεκαετία. Στο κείμενο που ακολουθεί επιχειρούμε να δώσουμε μια πρώτη απάντηση στο ερώτημα του αν η πανδημία θα επηρεάσει την γονιμότητα και τις γεννήσεις στη χώρα μας. Εάν και δεν διαθέτουμε ακόμη όλα τα αναγκαία δεδομένα, εκτιμούμε ότι οι επιπτώσεις του COVID-19, σωρευτικά με αυτές της οικονομικής κρίσης, έχουν επιδεινώσει το περιβάλλον για την απόκτηση ενός παιδιού, και θα οδηγήσουν τόσο σε μια πτώση της γονιμότητας των νεότερων γενεών όσο και σε μια επί πλέον μείωση των γεννήσεων. Έτσι, οι γυναίκες που γεννήθηκαν γύρω από το 1980 δεν αναμένεται να κάνουν κατά μέσο όρο περισσότερα από 1,5 παιδιά ενώ οι γεννήσεις, λαμβάνοντας υπόψη και ότι το πλήθος των γυναικών σε αναπαραγωγική ηλικία θα συνεχίσει να μειώνεται, θα είναι την τρέχουσα δεκαετία, σε ένα αισιόδοξο σενάριο, 130 χιλ. λιγότερες από αυτές (950 χιλ.) της δεκαετίας 2010-19.

description: Using density functional theory, we calculated the formation energy of native point defects (vacancies, interstitials and antisites) in MAX phase $Ti_2GeC$ and $Ti_3GeC_2$ compounds. Ge vacancy with formation energy of 2.87 eV was the most stable defect in $Ti_2GeC$ while C vacancy with formation energy of 2.47 eV was the most stable defect in $Ti_3GeC_2$. Ge vacancies, in particular, were found to be strong phonon scattering centres that reduce the lattice contribution to thermal conductivity in $Ti_2GeC$. In both compounds, the reported high thermal and electrical conductivity is attributed to the electronic contribution that originates from the high density of states at the Fermi level.

description: Coherent electron transport in double-barrier heterostructures with parallel electric and magnetic fields is analyzed theoretically and with the aid of a quantum simulator accounting for 3-dimensional transport effects. The onset-voltage shift induced by the magnetic field in resonant tunneling diodes, which was previously attributed to the cyclotron frequency $w_c$ inside the well is found to arise from an upward shift of the non-zero ground (lowest) Landau state energy in the entire quantum region where coherent transport takes place. The spatial dependence of the cyclotron frequency is accounted for and verified to have a negligible impact on resonant tunneling for the device and magnetic field strength considered. A correction term for the onset-voltage shift arising from the magnetic field dependence of the chemical potential is also derived. The Landau ground state with its nonvanishing finite harmonic oscillator energy $ \hbar w_c /2$ is verified however to be the principal contributor to the onset voltage shift at low temperatures.

description: Exploring the vast compositional space offered by multicomponent systems or high entropy materials using the traditional route of materials discovery, one experiment at a time, is prohibitive in terms of cost and required time. Consequently, the development of high‐throughput experimental methods, aided by machine learning and theoretical predictions will facilitate the search for multicomponent materials in their compositional variety. In this study, high entropy oxides are fabricated and characterized using automated high‐throughput techniques. For intuitive visualization, a graphical phase–property diagram correlating the crystal structure, the chemical composition, and the band gap are introduced. Interpretable machine learning models are trained for automated data analysis and to speed up data comprehension. The establishment of materials libraries of multicomponent systems correlated with their properties (as in the present work), together with machine learning‐based data analysis and theoretical approaches are opening pathways toward virtual development of novel materials for both functional and structural applications.

description: As video games attract more and more players, the major challenge for game studios is to retain them. We present a deep behavioral analysis of churn (game abandonment) and what we called "purchase churn" (the transition from paying to non-paying user). A series of churning behavior profiles are identified, which allows a classification of churners in terms of whether they eventually return to the game (false churners)--or start purchasing again (false purchase churners)--and their subsequent behavior. The impact of excluding some or all of these churners from the training sample is then explored in several churn and purchase churn prediction models. Our results suggest that discarding certain combinations of "zombies" (players whose activity is extremely sporadic) and false churners has a significant positive impact in all models considered.

description: The motion of molecules on solid surfaces is of interest for technological applications such as catalysis and lubrication, but it is also a theoretical challenge at a more fundamental level. The concept of activation barriers is very convenient for the interpretation of experiments and as input for Monte Carlo simulations but may become inadequate when mismatch with the substrate and molecular vibrations are considered. We study the simplest objects diffusing on a substrate at finite temperature $T$, namely an adatom and a diatomic molecule (dimer), using the Langevin approach. In the driven case, we analyse the characteristic curves, comparing the motion for different values of the intramolecular spacing, both for T=0 and $T\ne 0$. The mobility of the dimer is higher than that of the monomer when the drift velocity is less than the natural stretching frequency. The role of intramolecular excitations is crucial in this respect. In the undriven case, the diffusive dynamics is considered as a function of temperature. Contrary to atomic diffusion, for the dimer it is not possible to define a single, temperature independent, activation barrier. Our results suggest that vibrations can account for drastic variations of the activation barrier. This reveals a complex behaviour determined by the interplay between vibrations and a temperature dependent intramolecular equilibrium length.

description: Given $(X,ω)$ compact Kähler manifold and $ψ\in\mathcal{M}^{+}\subset PSH(X,ω)$ a model type envelope with non-zero mass, i.e. a fixed potential determing some singularities such that $\int_{X}(ω+dd^{c}ψ)^{n}>0$, we prove that the $ψ-$relative finite energy class $\mathcal{E}^{1}(X,ω,ψ)$ becomes a complete metric space if endowed with a distance $d$ which generalizes the well-known $d_{1}$ distance on the space of Kähler potentials. Moreover, for $\mathcal{A}\subset \mathcal{M}^{+}$ total ordered, we equip the set $X_{\mathcal{A}}:=\bigsqcup_{ψ\in\overline{\mathcal{A}}}\mathcal{E}^{1}(X,ω,ψ)$ with a natural distance $d_{\mathcal{A}}$ which coincides with the distance $d$ on $\mathcal{E}^{1}(X,ω,ψ)$ for any $ψ\in\overline{\mathcal{A}}$. We show that $\big(X_{\mathcal{A}},d_{\mathcal{A}}\big)$ is a complete metric space. As a consequence, assuming $ψ_{k}\searrow ψ$ and $ψ_{k},ψ\in \mathcal{M}^{+}$, we also prove that $\big(\mathcal{E}^{1}(X,ω,ψ_{k}),d\big)$ converges in a Gromov-Hausdorff sense to $\big(\mathcal{E}^{1}(X,ω,ψ),d\big)$ and that there exists a direct system $\Big\langle\big(\mathcal{E}^{1}(X,ω,ψ_{k}),d\big),P_{k,j}\Big\rangle$ in the category of metric spaces whose direct limit is dense into $\big(\mathcal{E}^{1}(X,ω,ψ),d\big)$.

Using perturbation expansions up to third order and fourth order in $σ_Y^2$ obtained from the moment equation approach, we construct the general functional dependence of the transport variables in the regime where $σ_Y^2$ is of order 1 and larger than 1. Comparison with available numerical simulations give encouraging results and show that the proposed method provides significant improvements over available expansions.

description: In this article, we point out an interesting solution for the dynamics of a racecar in a banked circular track with banking angle well over 90o. We call this track configuration an Inverted Track, at which a racecar can drive partially upside-down. We show an experimental setup where we made a toy car to circulate upside-down held only by its friction to the track. We discuss the viability to perform the abovementioned stunt with a real racecar in terms of the velocities required, dimensions of the track and safety; provided a passionate motorsport related company to commission it. For most racecars, the aerodynamic down-force is significant and it is included in our analysis.

description: This work reflects on how the transnational networks of the Theatre of the Oppressed (TO) contributed to its institutionalization and permanence as one of the most practiced theatrical methodologies worldwide. In order to understand the expansion of the method developed by Augusto Boal as a transnational network, the article first defines the terms ‘institutionalization’ and ‘network’, before providing a brief review of its history, its adaptation to the cultural policies in France and Brazil, and the importance of the TO Centres in this process. The ability of the method to adapt to the most diverse contexts, cultures and especially to the social development field demonstrate that, more than just circulating a theatrical method, the global network of the Theatre of the Oppressed reveals itself as a vehicle for the circulation of policies connected to the idea of cultural democracy.

description: The latest all-sky survey in hard X-ray band was performed by the HEAO-1 satellite (13-80 keV) with an angular resolution of 24x48 arcmin. A diffuse hard X-Ray background (HXB) was detected between 3 and 50 keV. The main scientific goal of In.XS is to resolve a large fraction of this HXB into individual sources. As no distortion by Compton up-scattering is seen in the spectrum of the microwave background, the hard X-ray background is believed to be mainly due to point sources. Type I Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) have softer X-ray spectra than the hard X-ray background, so other sources must be considered, like faint Type II or absorbed AGN. These could be distinguished through hard X-ray spectroscopic or hardness ratio observations. Here we present In.XS - a mission concept designed to conduct the first imaging all-sky hard X-ray (2-80 keV) survey. The angular resolution of nearly 1 arcmin and good sensitivity at high energies is provided by the latest multilayer focussing mirrors, with semiconductor-based (GaAs) arrays of detectors. We also describe the mission operations, and how the all-sky survey will be complemented by follow-up pointed observations of selected fields. The good angular resolution will allow correlations and identification with objects seen at other wavelengths. In addition, since a large fraction of the Type II AGN luminosity is emitted in the hard X-ray band, this survey will provide a large unbiased sample of the AGN population. This may provide constraints on AGN evolution through the possible observation of a turnover in deep field source statistics.

description: The object of this study is the kinetic process of solid-liquid first-order phase transition - melting of carbon dioxide CS-I hydrate with various cavity occupation ratios. The work was done within a framework of study on the local structure of water molecules. These include the time depending change of the short-range order at temperatures close to the melting point and comparison with hexagonal ice structure. Using molecular dynamics method, dependencies of the internal energy of the studied systems on the time of heating were found. Jumps in the internal energy of solids in the range at 275-300 K indicate a phase transition. The study of oxygen-oxygen radial distribution and hydrogen-oxygen-oxygen mutual orientation angles between molecules detached at no more than 3.2 angstroms allowed to find the H-bond coordination number of all molecules and full number of H-bonds and showed the instant (less than 1 nanosecond) reorganization of short-range order of all molecules. The structure analysis of every neighbor water molecules pairs showed the ~10-15 percents decrease of H-bond number after the melting whereas all molecules form single long-range hydrogen bond network. The analysis of hydrogen bond network showed the minor changes in the H-bond interaction energy at solid-liquid phase transition.

Black holes and singularities in causal set gravity

description: A precise definition of a black hole has long been absent in causal set theory. I first show that the local finiteness of the theory cannot be interpreted as a complete discretization condition, and the theory still admits continua, which I call singular anti-chains. After providing a couple of suggestive calculations from general relativity to support the argument that a singular anti-chain behaves like a causal singularity in a space-time, I propose a definition of a causal set black hole based on a singular anti-chain. The paper concludes with brief discussions of questions that causal set black holes and singularities may give rise to.

description: A field experiment with 66 spring biotypes and 9 winter biotypes of Camelina sativa was conducted in Poland in a two-year cycle (2016–2017). The quantitative profile of 8 flavonoid aglycones, 12 phenolic acids and the fatty acid profile were analysed. There were no significant differences in the concentration of total flavonoids, phenolic acids and fatty acids in the camelina seeds during the research years, but there were differences between the spring and winter cultivars. The total concentration of flavonoids in the spring forms amounted from 404 ± 38.5 to 429.9 ± 13.8 mg/kg; in the winter ones from 507.3 ± 51.4 to 526.4 ± 10.4 mg/kg. Similarly with phenolic acids, the concentration ranged from 2043.6 ± 62.5 to 2174.0 ± 145.2 mg/kg in the spring forms and from 3936.0 ± 210.8 to 3704.7 ± 195.4 mg/kg in the winter forms. The linoleic acid comprised 14% of total fatty acid content in spring biotypes and 16% in winter ones, while α-linolenic acid had similar content (37–38%). Camelina's adaptation to vast areas of the world, high oil concentration and its composition and properties makes it a suitable oil source for the production of biofuels, jet fuel, biobased-products, feed and food.
High-energy spin fluctuation in low-$T_{\rm c}$ iron-based superconductor LaFePO$_{0.9}$

description: Spin fluctuations are widely believed to play an important role in the superconducting mechanisms of unconventional high-temperature superconductors. Spin fluctuations have been observed in iron-based superconductors as well. However, in some iron-based superconductors such as LaFePO$_{0.9}$, they have not been observed by inelastic neutron scattering (INS). LaFePO$_{0.9}$ is an iron-based superconductor with a low superconducting transition temperature ($T_{\rm c}$= 5 K), where line nodes are observed in the superconducting gap function. The line-node symmetry typically originates from sign reversal of the order parameter in spin-fluctuation-mediated superconductivity. This contradiction has been a long-standing mystery of this superconductor. Herein, spin fluctuations were found at high energies such as 30$-$50 meV with comparable intensities to an optimally doped LaFeAs(O,F). Based on this finding, the line-node symmetry can be explained naturally as spin-fluctuation-mediated superconductivity.

description: We give a new example of a measure-valued process without a density, which arises from a stochastic partial differential equation with a multiplicative noise term. This process has some unusual properties. We work with the heat equation with a random potential: u_t=Delta u+kuF. Here k>0 is a small number, and x lies in d-dimensional Euclidean space with d>2. F is a Gaussian noise which is uncorrelated in time, and whose spatial covariance equals |x-y|^(-2). The exponent 2 is critical in the following sense. For exponents less than 2, the equation has function-valued solutions, and for exponents higher than 2, we do not expect solutions to exist. This model is closely related to the parabolic Anderson model; we expect solutions to be small, except for a collection of high peaks. This phenomenon is called intermittency, and is reflected in the singular nature of our process. Solutions exist as singular measures, under suitable assumptions on the initial conditions and for sufficiently small k. We investigate various properties of the solutions, such as dimension of the support and long-time behavior. As opposed to the super-Brownian motion, which satisfies a similar equation, our process does not have compact support, nor does it die out in finite time. We use such tools as scaling, self-duality and moment formulae.

description: Zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoplates were synthesised via the calcination of zinc acetate along with orange peel powder at 500°C for 4 h. The phase purity and average crystallite size of the prepared ZnO nanoplates were determined using Debye-Scherer's formula from the most intense peaks of X-ray diffraction (XRD). Fourier transform infrared (FT IR) spectroscopy was used to ascertain the surface functional group and metal-oxygen bond in the sample. Diffuse reflectance (DRS) UV-Visible absorption and photoluminescence (PL) spectroscopy were used to examine the optical property of the sample. Both scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM) revealed that the prepared sample has plate-like morphology with different dimensions. The ZnO nanoplates showed enhanced photocatalytic activity against rhodamine B (RhB) under UV light irradiation within 60 min. In addition, the as-prepared ZnO nanoplates were also used for H9c2 cardiomyoblasts cells to find the activity against MTT.
