description: Vast sound waves traveling through the relativistic plasma during the first million years of the universe imprint a preferred scale in the density of matter. We now have the ability to detect this characteristic fingerprint in the clustering of galaxies at various redshifts and use it to measure the acceleration of the expansion of the Universe. The Wide-Field Multi-Object Spectrograph (WFMOS) would use this test to shed significant light on the true nature of dark energy, the mysterious source of this cosmic acceleration. WFMOS would also revolutionise studies of the kinematics of the Milky Way and provide deep insights into the clustering of galaxies at redshifts up to z~4. In this article we discuss the recent progress in large galaxy redshift surveys and detail how WFMOS will help unravel the mystery of dark energy.

description: This paper documents that a process of industrial restructuring has been transforming the developed economies, where large corporations are accounting for less economic activity and small firms are accounting for a greater share of economic activity. Not all countries, however, are experiencing the same shift in their industrial structures. Very little is known about the cost of resisting this restructuring process. The goal of this paper is to identify whether there is a cost, measured in terms of forgone growth, of an impeded restructuring process. The cost is measured by linking growth rates of OECD countries to deviations from the optimal industrial structure. The empirical evidence suggests that countries impeding the restructuring process pay a penalty in terms of forgone growth. Dieses Diskussionspapier dokumentiert einen Strukturwandel, der zur Transformation der Wirtschaften hochentwickelter Länder führt: Großunternehmen verlieren gegenüber den kleineren Firmen relativ an Gewicht. Dieser Strukturwandel erfolgt in den einzelnen Ländern in unterschiedlichem Maße. Sehr wenig ist über die Konsequenzen bekannt, die entstehen, wenn ein Land sich dem Strukturwandel verweigert. Ziel dieses Papiers ist eine Einschätzung möglicher Kosten, die durch Behinderung des Strukturwandels entstehen. Derartige Kosten werden gemessen, indem die Wachstumsrate der OECD-Länder den Abweichungen von einer "optimalen" Unternehmensstruktur gegenübergestellt werden. Die empirische Evidenz legt die Vermutung nahe, dass Länder, welche den Strukturwandel behindern, eine "Strafe" in Form von Wachstumseinbußen bezahlen.

description: This paper analyzes environmental expenditures in Indonesia - a significant newly industrializing economy - reported at the plant level comprising all 23 thousand manufacturing establishments with more than 20 employees. Since compliance is barely enforced, pollution abatement expenditures are effectively voluntary in nature. This allows us to test whether foreign owned firms expend more due to a technology that adheres to stricter Western standards or whether the predominant effect is that both foreign and domestic exporting companies are more environmentally conscious due to better technology transfer or green consumerism in the Western countries. If so, this would contradict conventional wisdom that environmental expenditures reduce competitiveness and that increased levels of foreign direct investment or export-orientation in manufacturing will necessarily pre-empt firms from behaving in a "greener" fashion.

description: The Karl Jansky Very Large Array (VLA), Owens Valley Radio Observatory (OVRO), Atacama Large Millimetric Array (ALMA), and the infrared \textit{Spitzer} observatories, are powerful facilities to study massive star formation regions and related objects such as ultra--compact (UC) \hii regions, molecular clumps, and cores. We used these telescopes to study the \uchiir G43.89--0.78. The morphological study at arcminute scales using NVSS and \textit{Spitzer} data shows that this region is similar to those observed in the \textit{ bubble--like} structures revealed by \textit{Spitzer} observations. With this result, and including a physical characterization based on 3.6 cm data, we suggest G43.89--0.78 be classified as an \uchiir with Extended Emission because it meets the operational definition given in this paper comparing radio continuum data at 3.6 and 20~cm. For the ultra-compact component, we use VLA data to obtain physical parameters at 3.6~cm confirming this region as an \uchii region. Using ALMA observations, we detect the presence of a dense ($2.6\times10^7$ cm$^{-3}$) and small ($\sim$ 2.0\arcsec; 0.08 pc) molecular clump with a mass of 220 M$_{\odot}$ and average kinetic temperature of 21~K, located near to the \uchii region. In this clump, catalogued as G43.890--0.784, water masers also exist, possibly tracing a bipolar outflow. We discover in this vicinity two additional clumps which we label as G43.899--0.786 (T$_d$ = 50 K; M = 11 M$_{\odot}$), and G43.888--0.787 (T$_d$ = 50 K; M = 15 M$_{\odot}$).

description: We discuss constraints on which flat directions can have large vacuum expectation values (VEVs) after inflation. We show that only flat directions which are not charged under B-L and develop positive pressure due to renormalization group effects can have large VEVs of order $\Mp$. For example, within the MSSM only the $H_uH_d$ flat direction is found to be viable. This strongly constrains the embedding of a broad class of inflationary models in the MSSM or some other supersymmetric extension of the SM. For flat directions with negative pressure, the condensate fragments into very large Q-balls which we call Q-giants. We discuss the formation, evolution and reheating of these Q-giants and show that they decay too late. The analysis requires taking into account new phases of the flat directions, which have been overlooked in the formation and dynamics of the Q-balls. These constraints may be ameliorated by invoking a short period of thermal inflation. The latter, however, is viable in a very narrow window of parameter space and requires fine tuning.

Filtering with Search

Subjects: Labor and Human Capital

description: A firm monopsonistically hires labor from a pool containing both skilled and unskilled workers. The marginal value of a worker depends on the match between the job and the worker's skill level. Unskilled workers can have negative productivity if they are placed in a skilled job. The firm cannot distinguish the two types. The workers are initially dispersed and search for the high wage jobs from the firm. The workers' skill levels are correlated with their patience; equivalently, they obtain indirect benefits, such as non-firm-specific career capital, from jobs that use their skill appropriately. By judiciously choosing different wages for different types of jobs, the firm can partially filter the appropriate worker types and match them with the appropriate jobs. This mechanism works because the probability structure of the job offers changes as searchers accept jobs. This entails a delay in hiring workers who search, but the benefits from filtering that are requisite with the delay can exceed the benefits of hiring all workers immediately without filtering. The wage differentials assumed in standard search models are therefore motivated.

description: Additional file 6: Figure S4. Mosquito feeding performance on 3D MJ-printed nano-feeders. In three independent experiments with three different blood donors, plastic cages with 5, 10, 15, 20 or 50 mosquitoes were fed on a 60 µl blood-meal to determine the feeding performance on the nano-feeder. Data from independent experiments were pooled per group for analysis; pie charts present the mean feeding rate in percentages of fully- (FBF), partially- (PBF) or unfed (UF) mosquitoes. In all conditions a number of mosquitoes were PBF or UF. No blood material in the feeder cavity was left for cups with 20 or 50 mosquitoes. For 10 mosquitoes per feeder, all visually FBF mosquitoes had a blood-meal > 2.5 µl, with a mean volume of 3.52 µl (range 2.6–4.0, n = 12) and feeding prevalence of 65% FBF.

description: In this letter we experimentally demonstrate self-organization of small tracers under the action of longitudinal Faraday waves in a narrow container. We observe a steady current formation dividing the interface in small cells given by the symmetries of the Faraday wave. These streaming currents are rotating in each cell and their circulation increases with wave amplitude. This streaming flow drives the tracers to form patterns, whose shapes depend on the Faraday wave's amplitude: from low to high amplitudes we find dispersed tracers, a narrow rotating ring and a spiral galaxy-like pattern. We first describe the main pattern features, and characterize the wave and tracers' motion. We then show experimentally that the main source of the streaming flow comes from the time and spatial dependent shear at the wall contact line, created by the Faraday wave itself. We end by presenting a 2D model that considers the minimal ingredients present in the Faraday experiment, namely the stationary circulation, the stretching component due to the oscillatory wave and a steady converging field, which combined produce the observed self-organized patterns.

description: The paper explores the interaction between the proposed monetary union for ECOWAS and structural reforms of fiscal policy. The effects depend to a large extent on the degree of similarity of member countries. In a monetary union of similar countries, member states run a more distortive fiscal policy, while their structural reform efforts will fall. This is also the case for countries that unilaterally peg to an anchor currency or introduce a foreign currency. In an monetary union with dissimilar countries the reverse can happen for those member states that are confronted with high distortion countries. This result implies that current WAEMU members will run a less distortive fiscal policy after the inclusion of other members of ECOWAS.

description: Measurements of the heat capacity C(T,H) of the one-dimensional quantum magnet TiOCl are presented for temperatures 2K < T < 300K and magnetic fields up to 5T. Distinct anomalies at 91K and 67K signal two subsequent phase transitions. The lower of these transitions clearly is of first order and seems to be related to the spin degrees of freedom. The transition at 92K probably involves the lattice and/or orbital moments. A detailed analysis of the data reveals that the entropy change through both transitions is surprisingly small (~ 0.1R), pointing to the existence strong fluctuations well into the non-ordered high-temperature phase. No significant magnetic field dependence was detected.

At 0 s, the water bath was turned on (dotted line, temperature set at 39 °C) and the blood-meal was injected in the feeder cavity of glass mini-feeders (circles) and nano-feeders (triangles). Both plastic and glass feeders reached a stable temperature quickly within 4.5 min after attaching to the water bath. Plastic feeders remained at a stable temperature on average 1.8 °C lower (mean = 35.9 °C) than glass feeders (mean = 37.7 °C).

description: This paper proposes an extension of the finite cell method (FCM) to V-rep models, a novel geometric framework for volumetric representations. This combination of an embedded domain approach (FCM) and a new modeling framework (V-rep) forms the basis for an efficient and accurate simulation of mechanical artifacts, which are not only characterized by complex shapes but also by their non-standard interior structure. These objects gain more and more interest in the context of the new design opportunities opened by additive manufacturing, mainly when graded or micro-structured material is applied. Two different types of functionally graded materials (FGM) are considered: The first one, multi-material FGM, is described using the V-rep models' inherent property to assign different properties throughout the interior of a domain. The second, single-material FGM -- which is heterogeneously micro-structured -- characterizes the effective material behavior of representative volume elements by homogenization and performs large-scale simulations using the embedded domain approach.

description: Focal ratio degradation (FRD), the increase of light's focal ratio between the input into an optical fiber and the output, is important to characterize for astronomical spectrographs due to its effects on throughput and the point spread function. However, while FRD is a function of many fiber properties such as stresses, microbending, and surface imperfections, angular misalignments between the incoming light and the face of the fiber also affect the light profile and complicate this measurement. A compact experimental setup and a model separating FRD from angular misalignment was applied to a fiber subjected to varying stresses or angular misalignments to determine the magnitude of these effects. The FRD was then determined for a fiber in a fiber positioner that will be used in the Subaru Prime Focus Spectrograph (PFS). The analysis we carried out for the PFS positioner suggests that effects of angular misalignment dominate and no significant FRD increase due to stress should occur.

description: It has recently been demonstrated that N-heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs) form self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) on metal surfaces. Consequently, it is important to both characterize and understand their binding modes to fully exploit NHCs in functional surface systems. To assist with this effort, we have performed {\it first-principles} total energy calculations for NHCs on Au(111) and simulations of X-ray absorption near edge structure (XANES). The NHCs we have considered are N,N-dimethyl-, N,N-diethyl-, N,N-diisopropylbenzimidazolylidene ($^B$NHC$^X$, with X=Me, Et, and iPr, respectively) and the bis-$^B$NHC$^X$ complexes with Au derived from these molecules. We present a comprehensive analysis of the energetic stability of both the $^B$NHC$^X$ and the complexes on Au(111) and, for the former, examine the role of the wing group in determining the attachment geometry. Further structural characterization is performed by calculating the nitrogen K-edge X-ray absorption spectra. Our simulated XANES results give insight into (i) the relationship between the $^B$NHC$^X$/Au geometry and the N($1s$) $\rightarrow$ $π^\ast/σ^\ast$, pre-edge/near-edge, absorption intensities, and (ii) the contributions of the molecular deformation and molecule-surface electronic interaction to the XANES spectrum. Our simulations are compared with recent experimental results.
Competition Policy Works: The Effect of Competition Policy on the Intensity of Competition - An International Cross-Country Comparison

description: This paper explores the relationship between competition policy, experience of the application of competition policy, the intensity of local competition and the standard of living. Perception data from the World Economic Forum is used to measure the intensity of local competition. Richer and larger countries in general introduce competition policy earlier than smaller and poorer countries, and industrialized countries earlier than Latin American, African, transition and Asian countries, in this order. A regression analysis for a sample of 101 countries reveals that experience and overall government effectiveness explain a substantial part of the perception of the effectiveness of antitrust policy. During the first years of (new) competition legislation the effectiveness of application improves rapidly, whereas very old competition agencies make little further improvement of their application performance after a certain time. The effectiveness of antitrust policy has a significant influence on the intensity of local competition. The size of the economy also has a significant impact on the intensity of local competition, whereas external protection does not. These results indicate that competition legislation and experience of the application of competition legislation have a large impact on the level of competition in an economy, whereas the influence of external protection is not clear. In countries with a high intensity of local competition the standard of living is higher than in countries with a low intensity of local competition.

description: Experimental discovery of near-room-temperature (NRT) superconductivity in highly-compressed H$_3$S, LaH$_1$$_0$ and YH$_6$ restores fundamental interest to electron-phonon pairing mechanism in superconductors. One of prerequisites of phonon-mediated NRT superconductivity in highly-compressed hydrides is strong electron-phonon interaction, which can be quantified by dimensionless ratios of Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) theory vs $k{_B}T{_c}$/(${\hslash}$$ω{_l}{_n}$), where Tc is the critical temperature and $ω{_l}{_n}$ is the logarithmic phonon frequency (Mitrovic et al. 1984 Phys. Rev. B 29 184). However, all known strong-coupling correction functions for BCS ratios are applicable for $k{_B}T{_c}$/(${\hslash}$$ω{_l}{_n}$)<0.20, which is not high enough $k{_B}T{_c}$/(${\hslash}$$ω{_l}{_n}$) range for NRT superconductors, because the latter exhibit variable values of 0.13 < $k{_B}T{_c}$/(${\hslash}$$ω{_l}{_n}$) < 0.32. In this paper, we reanalyze full experimental dataset (including data for highly-compressed H3S) and find that strong-coupling correction functions for the gap-to-critical-temperature ratio and for the specific-heat-jump ratio are double-valued nearly-linear functions of $k{_B}T{_c}$/(${\hslash}$$ω{_l}{_n}$).

description: We address the emerging discrepancy between the Big Bang Nucleosynthesis data and standard cosmology, which asks for a bit longer evolution time. If this effect is real, one possible implication (in a framework of brane cosmology model) is that there is a ``dark radiation'' component which is negative and makes few percents of ordinary matter density. If so, all scales of this model can be fixed, provided brane-to-bulk leakage problem is solved.

description: L’objet de cet article est d’interroger la question de l’arbitrage entre la maîtrise des coûts et le développement de l’offre qui se pose devant les autorités organisatrices de la mobilité lors des appels d’offres pour les contrats de délégation de service public et qui est reportée sur les opérateurs sous forme de demandes formulées dans les cahiers des charges ou lors des négociations. Pour ce faire, nous étudions les cinq délégations de service public en Bretagne (Brest, Vannes, Lorient, Saint-Malo et Quimperlé) ayant changé d’opérateur au cours des années 2017 à 2020. En utilisant une approche cognitive d’analyse des politiques publiques, nous analysons 15 entretiens semi-directifs réalisés entre mai et novembre 2021 avec les directeurs des réseaux, les directeurs des services techniques et les élus en charge de la mobilité ainsi que les documents des appels d’offres des délégations de service public publiés entre 2015 et 2018. Nous cherchons à comprendre quelles sont les demandes des autorités organisatrices de la mobilité pour la maîtrise des coûts et pour l’adaptation de l’offre, comment elles sont exprimées, et comment les autorités organisatrices de la mobilité parviennent à articuler les objectifs opposés de la maîtrise de coûts et de l’amélioration de l’offre. Nous faisons l’hypothèse que ces demandes sont contradictoires. Les résultats de cette étude permettent de questionner la cohérence entre les capacités d’action des autorités organisatrices de la mobilité et les enjeux auxquels elles souhaitent répondre.

description: This study examines the impact on export sales of various promotional strategies for branded food products in foreign markets. It is an empirical analysis using data obtained from organizations that administer the High Value Export Incentive Program (HVEIP) for branded food products, part of USDA's Targeted Export Assistance (TEA) program and its successor, the Marketing Assistance Program (MAP). To respect the proprietary nature of the data, the identity of individual firms and brand names has been deleted and products have been combined into two groups: (1) consumer ready and (2) intermediate. Economic analysis reveals positive and statistically significant impacts of expenditures on television advertising and advertising in consumer-orientated print media on export sales of consumer ready products, the effect of the latter being somewhat larger. No other promotional strategy reveals a consistent and statistically significant relationship to exports. Channel-orientated strategies seldom showed positive results on export levels for consumer ready products, and consumer-orientated strategies bear no detectable relationship to export levels of intermediate products.

description: Three different methods of measuring cosmology with gamma-ray bursts (GRBs) have been proposed since a relation between the $γ$-ray energy $E_γ $ of a GRB jet and the peak energy $E_p$ of the $νF_ν$ spectrum in the burst frame was reported by Ghirlanda and coauthors. In Method I, to calculate the probability for a favored cosmology, only the contribution of the $E_γ-E_p$ relation that is already best fitted for this cosmology is considered. We apply this method to a sample of 17 GRBs, and obtain the mass density $Ω_M=0.15^{+0.45}_{-0.13}$ ($1σ$) for a flat $Λ$CDM universe. In Method II, to calculate the probability for some certain cosmology, contributions of all the possible $E_γ-E_p$ relations that are best fitted for their corresponding cosmologies are taken into account. With this method, we find a constraint on the mass density $0.14

description: Laser-controlled entanglement between atomic qubits (`spins') and collective motion in trapped ion Coulomb crystals requires conditional momentum transfer from the laser. Since the spin-dependent force is derived from a spatial gradient in the spin-light interaction, this force is typically longitudinal -- parallel and proportional to the average laser $k$-vector (or two beams' $k$-vector difference), which constrains both the direction and relative magnitude of the accessible spin-motion coupling. Here, we show how momentum can also be transferred perpendicular to a single laser beam due to the gradient in its transverse profile. By controlling the transverse gradient at the position of the ion through beam shaping, the relative strength of the sidebands and carrier can be tuned to optimize the desired interaction and suppress undesired, off-resonant effects that can degrade gate fidelity. We also discuss how this effect may already be playing an unappreciated role in recent experiments.

description: Recently, a novel public key edcryption technique based on multiple chaotic systems has been proposed. The scheme employs m-chaotic systmes and a set of linear functions for key exchange over an insecure channel. The security of the proposed algorithm grows as NPm, where M, P are the size of the key and the computational commplexity fo the linear functions respectively. In this paper, the fundamental weakness of the cryptosystme is pointed out and a successful attack is described. Given the public keys and initial vector, one can calculate the secret key based on Parsevala's theorem. Both theoretical and experimental results show that the attacker can access to the secret key without difficulty. The lack of security discourages the use of such algorithm for practical application.

Harnessing Dispersion in Soliton Microcombs to Mitigate Thermal Noise

description: We explore intrinsic thermal noise in soliton microcombs, revealing thermodynamic correlations induced by nonlinearity and group-velocity dispersion. A suitable dispersion design gives rise to control over thermal-noise transduction from the environment to a soliton microcomb. We present simulations with the Lugiato-Lefever equation (LLE), including temperature as a stochastic variable. By systematically tuning the dispersion, we suppress repetition-rate frequency fluctuations by up to 50 decibels for different LLE soliton solutions. In an experiment, we observe a measurement-system-limited 15-decibel reduction in the repetition-rate phase noise for various settings of the pump-laser frequency, and our measurements agree with a thermal-noise model. Finally, we compare two octave-spanning soliton microcombs with similar optical spectra and offset frequencies, but with designed differences in dispersion. Remarkably, their thermal-noise-limited carrier-envelope-offset frequency linewidths are 1 MHz and 100 Hz, which demonstrates an unprecedented potential to mitigate thermal noise. Our results guide future soliton-microcomb design for low-noise applications, and, more generally, they illuminate emergent properties of nonlinear, multi-mode optical systems subject to intrinsic fluctuations.

description: Questionnaires were sent to 8,000 randomly selected households in the higher income metropolitan areas of Kansas City and St. Louis. The surveys were designed to address consumers' awareness, perceptions, and impressions of Missouri's wines and other beverages. Initial results indicate that 47 percent of the respondents were not familiar with Missouri wines. Of those who were familiar with Missouri wines: 1) 82 percent rated the quality of Missouri wines as good or excellent, 2) 95 percent described the prices of Missouri wines as being moderate or inexpensive, 3) 41 percent thought Missouri wines were not as good as California wines, 4) 43 percent said Missouri wine supplies were not available, and 5) 74 percent responded that the taste of Missouri wines was better than expected.

description: We present Hubble Space Telescope Imaging Spectrograph long-slit spectroscopy of the emission line nebulae in the compact steep spectrum radio sources 3C 67, 3C 277.1, and 3C 303.1. We derive BPT (Baldwin- Philips-Terlevich; Baldwin et al. 1981) diagnostic emission line ratios for the nebulae which are consistent with a mix of shock excitation and photoionization in the extended gas. In addition, line ratios indicative of lower ionization gas are found to be associated with higher gas velocities. The results are consistent with a picture in which these galaxy scale radio sources interact with dense clouds in the interstellar medium of the host galaxies, shocking the clouds thereby ionizing and accelerating them.

description: We investigate different methods used to construct (zero-age) horizontal branch models and compare the resulting horizontal branch evolution with that of models resulting from the calculation of the complete stellar evolution from the main sequence and through the core helium flash. We show that the approximate methods may lead to small, but discernible effects, but that some methods, which are as simple, reproduce the complete evolution very well.

description: Ab initio modeling of molecular electronics is nowadays routinely performed by combining the Density Functional Theory (DFT) and Nonequilibrium Green function (NEGF) techniques. This method has its roots in the current formula given by Meir and Wingreen, and we discuss some applications and accompanying pitfalls and restrictions of this approach. Quite recently papers have begun to appear where inelastic effects are considered, and we illustrate these new developments by describing our own work on transport in atomic gold wires.
