description: Our study shows an analysis of a sheep farm. The present farm was chosen for analysis due to the fact that it is run under special natural conditions and as for the sheep farming, it has quite a few non-typical features. These raise some economic issues, which have to be analysed, questions have to be answered that may result in useful conclusions. Since sheep farming does not seem to be able to overcome its difficulties on its own, the EU support system could give the initial step necessary for the success and would also help to sustain sheep farms. The amount of grant that is usual in the EU could provide for the sustainability of this sector, the relative safety of sales, the equal chances of the farms operating under different capabilities and if possible it could also reduce the fluctuation in the producers’ prices. In 2005 the farm could only apply for the single area payment and was not entitled to receive the grant based on the number of milk-ewe older than one year. This condition changed by 2006 and therefore they had access to those grants. In the following years if support funds could be used at a maximum level, the earning ability of the sector would change significantly. Since 2006 the available support funds can be requested from several sources for the above mentioned farm. If these sources can be assured for the farm it is also necessary to work out the professional conditions and efficiency and profitability shall be taken into consideration.

description: China’s economic reforms make the farmers face the risk of land reallocation and adjustment, raising the questions about the impact of land reallocation on farm productivity and efficiency. Deep understanding what determines land reallocation, whether and to what extent farm productivity and efficiency are affected by the frequency of land reallocation could help policy makers introduce better targeted rural development policies. The aim of this study is first to explore the determinants of land reallocation, and then analyze how land reallocation influences productivity and efficiency in agricultural production. This study is based on panel data set over 1995-2002 from rural households in Hubei and Yunnan provinces. Our results indicate that the likelihood of land reallocation is influenced by the opportunity of off-farm employment and the geographic characteristics and location of the village. The development of land rental market is substitute of land reallocation in optimizing the allocation of land resource. Average technical efficiency was found to be 72%. Farms with high variability in farm revenue were found to be more technically efficient than farms with low revenue variability. The predicted probability of land reallocation was statistically significant among factors affecting farm productivity and efficiency. In other words, we do find the systematic difference in farm productivity and technical efficiency between farmers have been reallocated land or not during the period of land tenure.

description: We explore synergies between the space-based Wide-Field Infrared Survey Telescope (WFIRST) and the ground-based Rubin Observatory Legacy Survey of Space and Time (LSST). In particular, we consider a scenario where the currently envisioned survey strategy for WFIRST's High Latitude Survey (HLS), i.e., 2000 square degrees in four narrow photometric bands is altered in favor of a strategy that combines rapid coverage of the LSST area (to full LSST depth) in one band. We find that a 5-month WFIRST survey in the W-band can cover the full LSST survey area providing high-resolution imaging for >95% of the LSST Year 10 gold galaxy sample. We explore a second, more ambitious scenario where WFIRST spends 1.5 years covering the LSST area. For this second scenario we quantify the constraining power on dark energy equation of state parameters from a joint weak lensing and galaxy clustering analysis, and compare it to an LSST-only survey and to the Reference WFIRST HLS survey. Our survey simulations are based on the WFIRST exposure time calculator and redshift distributions from the CANDELS catalog. Our statistical uncertainties account for higher-order correlations of the density field, and we include a wide range of systematic effects, such as uncertainties in shape and redshift measurements, and modeling uncertainties of astrophysical systematics, such as galaxy bias, intrinsic galaxy alignment, and baryonic physics. Assuming the 5-month WFIRST wide scenario, we find a significant increase in constraining power for the joint LSST+WFIRST wide survey compared to LSST Y10 (FoM(Wwide)= 2.4 FoM(LSST)) and compared to LSST+WFIRST HLS (FoM(Wwide)= 5.5 FoM(HLS)).

description: We present a method for evaluating the partition function in a varying external field. Specifically, we look at the case of a non-interacting, charged, massive scalar field at finite temperature with an associated chemical potential in the background of a delta-function potential. Whilst we present a general method, valid at all temperatures, we only give the result for the leading order term in the high temperature limit. Although the derivative expansion breaks down for inhomogeneous backgrounds we are able to obtain the high temperature expansion, as well as an analytic expression for the zero point energy, by way of a different approximation scheme, which we call the {\it local Born approximation} (LBA).

description: We present measurements of the complete spatio-temporal Fourier spectrum of Faraday waves. The Faraday waves are generated at the interface of two immiscible index matched liquids of different density. By use of a new absorption technique we are able to determine the bifurcation scenario from the flat surface to the patterned state for each complex spatial and temporal Fourier component separately. The measured surface spectra at onset are in good agreement with the predictions from a linear stability analysis. For the nonlinear state our measurements show in a direct manner how energy is transferred from lower to higher harmonics and we quantify the nonlinear coupling coefficients. Furthermore we find that the nonlinear coupling generates constant components in the spatial Fourier spectrum leading to a contribution of a non oscillating permanent sinusoidal deformed surface state. A comparison of a hexagonal and a rectangular pattern reveals that spatial resonances only can give rise to a spectrum that violates the temporal resonance conditions given by the weakly nonlinear theory.

description: Nowadays, consumers do not just consider the functional use of a product important, but also the emotional experiences a product is able to provide. These emotional experiences are sated with non-material elements of a product whose accordant importance depend on the values held by consumers. Hence, by referring to Means-End-Chain-Theory it can be stated that personal values constitute the actual buying motive. For this reason, the identification of values helps to explain purchasing motives and preferences. Since values do not just influence a consumer’s purchasing decisions, but vary between cultural circles, it is expected that cultural values lead to culture-specific consumption patterns. To determine these coherences between cultural values and the consumer behaviour of a cultural circle, 40 female wine consumers, comprised of 20 German and 20 Ukrainian women, were interviewed using laddering-interviews. The results of this empirical study will be presented in this paper. In doing so, we highlight some differences concerning the consumption habits of German and Ukrainian wine consumers which might be caused by the divergent cultural background of the consumers surveyed.

description: Magnetic charge propagation in bulk frustrated materials has yielded a paradigm-shift in science, allowing the symmetry between electricity and magnetism to be studied. Recent work is now suggesting magnetic charge dynamics upon the spin-ice surface may have important implications in determining the ordering and associated phase space. Here we detail a 3D artificial spin-ice, a 3D nanostructured array of magnetic islands which captures the exact geometry of bulk systems, allowing field-driven dynamics of magnetic charge to be directly visualized upon the surface. Using magnetic microscopy, we observe vastly different magnetic charge dynamics along two principle directions. These striking differences are found to be due to the surface-termination and associated coordination which yields different energetics and interaction strengths for magnetic charges upon the surface.

description: An analysis of current and forecasted Mexican meat consumption and imports is presented at the table cut level of disaggregation. Unlike previous studies, this study uses adult equivalence scales, a price imputation approach, a consistent censored demand system, and estimation techniques from stratified sampling. The results indicate that most Mexican consumption and imports of table cuts of meats grow at different rates. In addition, Mexico seems to be following the U.S. preferences for beef cuts, but it does not seem to be following the U.S. preferences for chicken cuts. The study may help U.S. and Canadian meat exporters in forecasting future exports to Mexico, conducting long-term meat investment decisions, or identifying trends in the consumption of specific table cuts of meats.

description: This paper examines how certain new structural factors have contributed to the latest great financial crisis and world recession of 2008-09. We focus on three of these structural factors: (i) the incorporation of highly populated countries into the growth process; (ii) The increasing scarcity of the environment and certain natural resources; (iii) the unprecedented concentration of wealth and income in the advanced economies over the last three decades. These structural changes have significantly tightened the links between world growth and commodity prices, have made the world commodity supply to become increasingly inelastic, and have made growth to become more dependent on lax monetary policies, respectively. All this may make the recovery from the current crisis much more difficult, implying a deeper and more protracted crisis than most previous crises. With this framework in mind we focus on the likely affect of the financial crisis upon the natural resources in the developing world, by drawing implications from the 1995 Mexico-originated Peso crisis and the 1998-99 Asia crises. We find that the impact of the current crisis is likely to degrade further the environmental resources and the tightening of environmental policies in response to such degradation may make the commodity supply curve of commodities even steeper in the future.

description: Hall resistance $R_{\textrm{xy}}$ is commonly suggested to be linear-in-magnetic-field $B$, provided the field is small. We argue here that at low temperatures this linearity is broken due to weak localization/antilocalization phenomena in inhomogeneous systems, while in a uniform medium these effects do not affect the linear field dependence of $R_{\textrm{xy}}(B)$. We calculate the Hall resistance for different two-component media using a mean-field approach and show that this non-linearity is experimentally observable.

Selfduality of d=2 Reduction of Gravity Coupled to a Sigma-Model

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Dimensional reduction in two dimensions of gravity in higher dimension, or more generally of d=3 gravity coupled to a sigma-model on a symmetric space, is known to possess an infinite number of symmetries. We show that such a bidimensional model can be embedded in a covariant way into a sigma-model on an infinite symmetric space, built on the semidirect product of an affine group by the Witt group. The finite theory is the solution of a covariant selfduality constraint on the infinite model. It has therefore the symmetries of the infinite symmetric space. (We give explicit transformations of the gauge algebra.) The usual physical fields are recovered in a triangular gauge, in which the equations take the form of the usual linear systems which exhibit the integrable structure of the models. Moreover, we derive the constraint equation for the conformal factor, which is associated to the central term of the affine group involved.

description: This article investigates the cache-enabling unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) cellular networks with massive access capability supported by non-orthogonal multiple access (NOMA). The delivery of a large volume of multimedia contents for ground users is assisted by a mobile UAV base station, which caches some popular contents for wireless backhaul link traffic offloading. In cache-enabling UAV NOMA networks, the caching placement of content caching phase and radio resource allocation of content delivery phase are crucial for network performance. To cope with the dynamic UAV locations and content requests in practical scenarios, we formulate the long-term caching placement and resource allocation optimization problem for content delivery delay minimization as a Markov decision process (MDP). The UAV acts as an agent to take actions for caching placement and resource allocation, which includes the user scheduling of content requests and the power allocation of NOMA users. In order to tackle the MDP, we propose a Q-learning based caching placement and resource allocation algorithm, where the UAV learns and selects action with \emph{soft ${\varepsilon}$-greedy} strategy to search for the optimal match between actions and states. Since the action-state table size of Q-learning grows with the number of states in the dynamic networks, we propose a function approximation based algorithm with combination of stochastic gradient descent and deep neural networks, which is suitable for large-scale networks. Finally, the numerical results show that the proposed algorithms provide considerable performance compared to benchmark algorithms, and obtain a trade-off between network performance and calculation complexity.
"[T]he poetic value of the evolutionary conception" : Darwinian allegory in the major novels of Edith Wharton, 1905-1920
Creators: name: Ohler, Paul Joseph
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: My study investigates Edith Wharton's engagement with Darwin's evolutionary theory in "The House of Mirth" (1905), "The Custom of the Country" (1913), and "The Age of Innocence" (1920). The value of juxtaposing Wharton's narratives with her scientific knowledge has been recognized by critics since the 1950's. Yet, the few existing discussions of Darwinian allegory that examine these novels do not adequately describe the political dimension of Wharton's fictional sociobiology. My investigation addresses this insufficiency in the criticism. Examining Wharton's fiction in relation to her autobiographical writings, letters, and literary criticism, I demonstrate that her major novels link those laws governing gradual change in the natural world—described by Darwin, and theorists such as Herbert Spencer—with the ideological shifts affecting privileged social groupings. The introductory chapter outlines the critical response to Wharton's sociobiology, and examines specific scientific texts that the author refers to in her extra-literary writing. In chapter two I examine "The House of Mirth's" portrayal of cultural practices that lead to the elimination of unfit individuals such as Lily Bart, and show how Wharton critiques the position that natural selection and other laws theorized in The Origin of Species should apply within human society. The following chapter, on "The Custom of the Country", demonstrates Wharton's interest in representing the effects on existing leisure-class cultural practices of the newly-moneyed socioeconomic elite, whose rise Wharton attributes to social evolution. The novel also describes, I show, an inadequate leisure-class ethics that fails to confront the new elite's biological justification for expansion and dominance. Chapter four investigates "The Age of Innocence", in which Wharton takes aim at leisure-class morality by depicting it as a "negation" ( AI 212) of culturally obscured biological instinct, and by representing the sacrifice of individuals to a "collective interest" ( AI 111) that is portrayed as frivolous. In the concluding chapter, I summarize the ways I have extended existing Wharton scholarship, and describe potential pathways for future research. One key conclusion of my dissertation is that Wharton associates ideological change with natural selection, and sexual selection, in order to articulate the challenges to achieving social equality posed by "primitive" (CC 470) and "instinctive" (CC 355) energies.

We construct an explicit Boardman-Vogt style cofibrant resolution for coloured operads, thereby giving a uniform approach to algebraic structures up to homotopy over coloured operads. The Comparison Theorem implies that such structures can be rectified.

Space-Time Modulated Metasurfaces with Spatial Discretization: Free-Space N-path Systems

description: This work theoretically and experimentally studies metasurfaces with spatially-discrete, traveling-wave modulation (SD-TWM). A representative metasurface is considered consisting of columns of time-modulated subwavelength unit cells, referred to as stixels. SD-TWM is achieved by enforcing a time delay between temporal waveforms applied to adjacent columns. In contrast to the continuous traveling-wave modulation commonly assumed in studies of space-time metasurfaces, here the modulation is spatially discretized. In order to account for the discretized spatial modulation, a modified Floquet analysis is introduced based on a new boundary condition that has been derived for SD-TWM structures. The modified Floquet analysis separates the scattered field into its macroscopic and microscopic variations. The reported theoretical and experimental results reveal that the electromagnetic behavior of an SD-TWM metasurface can be categorized into three regimes. For electrically-large spatial modulation periods, the microscopic field variation across each stixel can be neglected. In this regime, the space-time metasurface allows simultaneous frequency translation and angular deflection. When the spatial modulation period on the metasurface is electrically small, the microscopic variation results in new metasurface capabilities such as subharmonic mixing. When the spatial modulation period of the metasurface is wavelength-scale, the metasurface allows both subharmonic mixing and angular deflection to be achieved simultaneously. To verify our analysis, a dual-polarized, spatio-temporally modulated metasurface, is developed and measured at X-band frequencies.

description: We investigate the ferroelectric phase transition and domain formation in a periodic superlattice consisting of alternate ferroelectric (FE) and paraelectric (PE) layers of nanometric thickness. We find that the polarization domains formed in the different FE layers can interact with each other via the PE layers. By coupling the electrostatic equations with those obtained by minimizing the Ginzburg-Landau functional we calculate the critical temperature of transition Tc as a function of the FE/PE superlattice wavelength and quantitatively explain the recent experimental observation of a thickness dependence of the ferroelectric transition temperature in KTaO3/KNbO3 strained-layer superlattices.

We report new measurements of the mass, width, and $B(χ_{cJ} \to \bar{p} p) \times Γ(χ_{cJ} \to J/ψ+ anything)$ for the $χ_{c1}$ and $χ_{c2}$ by means of the inclusive reaction $\bar{p}p \to χ_{cJ} \to J/ψ+ anything \to (e^{+}e^{-}) +anything $. Using the subsample of events where $χ_{cJ} \to γ+ J/ψ\to γ+ (e^{+}e^{-}) $ is fully reconstructed, we derive $B(χ_{cJ} \to \bar p p)\times Γ(χ_{cJ} \to J/ψ+ γ) $. We summarize the results of the E760 (updated) and E835 measurements of mass, width and $ B(χ_{cJ} \to \bar{p}p) Γ(χ_{cJ} \to J/ψ+γ)$ (J=0,1,2) and discuss the significance of these measurements.

description: High-performance anodes for rechargeable Li-ion battery are produced by nanostructuring of the transition metal oxides on a conductive support. Here, we demonstrate a hybrid material of MnO2 directly grown onto fabrics of carbon nanotube fibres, which exhibits notable specific capacity over 1100 and 500 mAh/g at a discharge current density of 25 mA/g and 5 A/g, respectively, with coulombic efficiency of 97.5 %. Combined with 97 % capacity retention after 1500 cycles at a current density of 5 A/g, both capacity and stability are significantly above literature data. Detailed investigations involving electrochemical and in situ synchrotron X-ray scattering study reveal that during galvanostatic cycling, MnO2 undergoes an irreversible phase transition to LiMnO2, which stores lithium through an intercalation process, followed by conversion mechanism and pseudocapacitive processes. This mechanism is further confirmed by Raman spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. The fraction of pseudocapacitive charge storage ranges from 27% to 83%, for current densities from 25 mA/g to 5 A/g. Firm attachment of the active material to the built-in current collector makes the electrodes flexible and mechanically robust, and ensures that the low charge transfer resistance and the high electrode surface area remain after irreversible phase transition of the active material and extensive cycling.

description: The problem of intertwined Hamiltonians in two dimensional curved spaces is investigated. Explicit results are obtained for Euclidean plane,Minkowski plane, Poincar{\' e} half plane ($AdS_2$), de Sitter Plane ($dS_2$), sphere, and torus. It is shown that the intertwining operator is related to the Killing vector fields and the isometry group of corresponding space. It is shown that the intertwined potentials are closely connected to the integral curves of the Killing vector fields. Two problems of considered as applications of the formalism presented in the paper. The first one is the problem of Hamiltonians with equispaced energy levels and the second one is the problem of Hamiltonians whose spectrum are like the spectrum of a free particle.

Vicariously witnessing trauma : narratives of meaning and experience
Creators: name: Keats, Patrice Alison
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: My interest in the process and effects of the witnessing act guides the purpose of this study. Here, I initiate a deeper understanding of the vicarious witnessing experience from the perspective of the witnessing participant. My central question is: How do individuals make sense of vicariously witnessing trauma through narrative, visual, and evidence-based representations of traumatic events in the concentration camps of Europe? Vicarious witnessing begins with abstract representations of the event. The evidence is witnessed firsthand, but the event itself is represented through various perspectives such as photographic or artistic images, survivor stories, or physical remnants. Witnessing the evidence evokes a potent embodied experience, so that a person can make the statement, "I have imagined what another has experienced, hence I believe I know." It is through the imagination that a witness forms a picture of the trauma. Undoubtedly, there is immense power in meeting another's experience in the realm of imagination. Compassionate action and social justice is based in this area of human empathy. To best achieve my purpose, I use a narrative method that involves two types of analysis, interpretive readings and narrative instances, as an approach to understand the participant's experience of vicarious witnessing. Participants in this study construct three types of narrative texts-written, spoken, and visual. Each textual perspective shapes the meaning that the participant attempts to express. As a first level of analysis, interpretive readings of the texts include general, specific, visual, and relational readings. Secondly, through exploring the interaction between various parts of these texts, and between the texts themselves, I explore three types of narrative instances--single-text, intratextual, and intertextual. Each analysis of a narrative instance is matched specifically to each participant, and I believe, is uniquely adequate for understanding the experience of vicarious witnessing. My inquiry outlines how individuals make sense of vicariously witnessing trauma, clarifies the meaning that participants make of the vicarious witnessing experience, shows the risks and coping involved in vicarious witnessing, and presents the kinds of social action that vicarious witnessing evokes. In the field of counselling psychology, the witnessing experience is an important aspect of trauma theory that has been left unexplored by psychologists. My research enlarges the social and theoretical conversation concerning the vicarious witnessing experience.

description: According to the connotation of agricultural industrialization, the DPSIR model based on agricultural industrialization is introduced from the five aspects of driving fore, pressure, state, impact and response. Taking the North Bay Economic Zone of Guangxi Province as an example, a total of 23 indices are selected to construct the evaluation index system of sustainable development for agricultural industrialization by using the Analytic Hierarchy Process. And the sustainable development level is comprehensively evaluated by weighted method. The result shows that driving force factor is still in a worse state. Industry, house sites and unreasonable agricultural productive ways have caused obvious pressure on agricultural industrialization. The scores of “state” and “impact” factors indicate that the output scale of agriculture, labor force scale and peasants’ income are still in its initial stage. The score of “response” is lower, indicating that the current structural adjustment can not adapt to the development of agricultural industrialization. The developmental environment of the North Bay Economic Zone is studied as well as the opportunities and challenges. On this basis, related countermeasures and proposals are put forward.
Highly-Ionized Oxygen Absorbers in the Intergalactic Medium

description: Recent ultraviolet and X-ray observations of intergalactic OVI and OVII absorption systems along lines of sight to bright quasars have opened a new window onto the ``warm-hot intergalactic medium'' (WHIM). These systems appear to provide a significant reservoir for baryons in the local universe, and comparison to cosmological simulations suggests that their abundance roughly matches theoretical predictions. Here we use analytic arguments to elucidate the physical properties of the absorbers and their role in structure formation. We first show that if the absorbers result from structure-formation shocks, the observed column densities naturally follow from postshock-cooling models, if we include fast-cooling shocks as well as those that cannot cool within a Hubble time. In this case, the known OVI absorbers should show stronger OVII absorption than expected from collisional-ionization equilibrium (and much more than expected for photoionized systems). We then argue that higher-temperature shocks will be spatially associated with more massive virialized objects even well outside the virial radius. Thus the different oxygen ions will trace different structures; OVII absorbers are the most common because that ion dominates over a wide temperature range (corresponding to a large range in halo mass). If each dark-matter halo is surrounded by a network of shocks with total cross section a few times the size of the virialized systems, then we can reproduce the observed number densities of absorbers with plausible parameters. A simple comparison with simulations shows that these assumptions are reasonable, although the actual distribution of shocked gas is too complex for analytic models to describe fully. Our models suggest that these absorbers cannot be explained as a single-temperature phase.
