description: The quantum Hall system is known to have two mutually dual Chern-Simons descriptions, one associated with the hydrodynamics of the electron fluid, and another associated with the statistics. Recently, Susskind has made the claim that the hydrodynamic Chern-Simons theory should be considered to have a non-commutative gauge symmetry. The statistical Chern-Simons theory has a perturbative momentum expansion. In this paper, we study this perturbation theory and show that the effective action, although commutative at leading order, is non-commutative. This conclusion is arrived at through a careful study of the three-point function of Chern-Simons gauge fields. The non-commutative gauge symmetry of this system is thus a quantum symmetry, which we show can only be fully realized only through the inclusion of all orders in perturbation theory. We discuss the duality between the two non-commutative descriptions.

description: Women play significant roles generally in urban agricultural production. In spite of their roles, women farmers are faced with myriads of challenges that affect their increased production in the urban areas. This study assessed the challenges of women farming in urban areas with reference to Kwara State, Nigeria. A total of 1,801 women farmers were sampled from different urban areas in the state. Focus Group Discussions (FGDs) were organized for them in order to explore their minds on the challenges faced and opportunities available to them in urban agricultural production. The matrix ranking revealed lack of credit facilities as one of the most important challenges militating against increased production by women. Other challenges identified include restricted accessibility to land and lack of farm input among others. Appropriate recommendations were made that production resources should be made available especially for women farmers while women should also be part of decision making concerning agriculture.

description: Near-extremal black holes are obtained by exciting the Ramond sector of the D1-D5 CFT, where the ground state is highly degenerate. We find that the dual geometries for these ground states have throats that end in a way that is characterized by the CFT state. Below the black hole threshold we find a detailed agreement between propagation in the throat and excitations of the CFT. We study the breakdown of the semiclassical approximation and relate the results to the proposal of gr-qc/0007011 for resolving the information paradox: semiclassical evolution breaks down if hypersurfaces stretch too much during an evolution. We find that a volume V stretches to a maximum throat depth of V/2G.

description: Introduction: In line with the monoamine hypothesis of major depressive disorder (MDD), the clinical efficacy of the selective serotonin reuptake inhibitor fluoxetine has classically been ascribed to central serotonin enhancing properties. Current research described disturbances in brain energy metabolism in MDD. Additionally, fluoxetine showed beneficial effects in neuropsychiatric disorders associated with central energy imbalance. Areas covered: The effect of in vitro fluoxetine exposure on cellular glucose uptake and cerebral glucose transporter function was assessed in human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMC) and murine neuroblastoma N2a cells. Fluoxetine augmented glucose uptake, measured by utilizing the radionuclide-labled glucose analog [18]F-fluorodeoxyglucose, in PBMC without affecting glucose transporter protein content. Analysis of protein palmitoylation using the acyl-biotinyl exchange method revealed GLUT3 to be palmitoylated in PBMC and N2a cells, while palmitoylation of GLUT1 was detected only in N2a cells. Treatment with fluoxetine significantly increased palmitoylation of GLUT3 in PBMC and strongly induced palmitoylation of GLUT1 in PBMC and N2a cells. Expert opinion: Our findings suggest a novel mechanism exerted by fluoxetine targeting glucose metabolism by regulating glucose transporter palmitoylation. Thus, fluoxetine might evoke its therapeutic effects in neuropsychiatric diseases characterized by disturbances in central energy metabolism at least partly by improving cerebral glucose uptake.

description: As part of the Hubble Deep Field South program, a set of shorter 2-orbit observations were obtained of the area adjacent to the deep fields. The WFPC2 flanking fields cover a contiguous solid angle of 48 square arcminutes. Parallel observations with the STIS and NICMOS instruments produce a patchwork of additional fields with optical and near-infrared (1.6 micron) response. Deeper parallel exposures with WFPC2 and NICMOS were obtained when STIS observed the NICMOS deep field. These deeper fields are offset from the rest, and an extended low surface brightness object is visible in the deeper WFPC2 flanking field. In this data paper, which serves as an archival record of the project, we discuss the observations and data reduction, and present SExtractor source catalogs and number counts derived from the data. Number counts are broadly consistent with previous surveys from both ground and space. Among other things, these flanking field observations are useful for defining slit masks for spectroscopic follow-up over a wider area around the deep fields, for studying large-scale structure that extends beyond the deep fields, for future supernova searches, and for number counts and morphological studies, but their ultimate utility will be defined by the astronomical community.

description: Possibility of flat-band ferromagnetism in quantum dot arrays is theoretically discussed. By using a quantum dot as a building block, quantum dot superlattices are possible. We consider dot arrays on Lieb and kagome lattices known to exhibit flat band ferromagnetism. By performing an exact diagonalization of the Hubbard Hamiltonian, we calculate the energy difference between the ferromagnetic ground state and the paramagnetic excited state, and discuss the stability of the ferromagnetism against the second nearest neighbor transfer. We calculate the dot-size dependence of the energy difference in a dot model and estimate the transition temperature of the ferromagnetic-paramagnetic transition which is found to be accessible within the present fabrication technology. We point out advantages of semiconductor ferromagnets and suggest other interesting possibilities of electronic properties in quantum dot superlattices.

description: In this review some recent multi-loop results obtained in the framework of perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) and Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) are discussed. After reviewing the most advanced techniques used for the computation of renormalization group functions, we consider the decoupling of heavy quarks. In particular, an effective method for the evaluation of the decoupling constants is presented and explicit results are given. Furthermore the connection to observables involving a scalar Higgs boson is worked out in detail. We review the radiative corrections of a Higgs boson into gluons and quarks and present explicit results up to order $α_s^4$ and $α_s^3$, respectively. In this review special emphasis is put on the applications of asymptotic expansions. A method is described which combines expansion terms of different kinematical regions with the help of conformal mapping and Padé approximation. This method allows us to proceed beyond the present scope of exact multi-loop calculations. As far as physical processes are concerned, we review the computation of three-loop current correlators in QCD taking into account the full mass-dependence. In a further application four-loop diagrams are considered which contribute to the order $α^2$ QED corrections to the $μ$ decay. Finally the calculation of the three-loop relation between the $\bar{\rm MS}$ and on-shell quark mass definitions is presented. To complete the presentation, some technical details are presented in the Appendix, where also explicit analytical results are listed.

description: An experiment was conducted during the dry seasons in western Hararghe Zone, Eastern Ethiopia at the Haramaya University Chiro Campus to determine the effect of maize stover as soil mulch on yield of Arabica coffee. Five levels of maize stover as soil mulch at a rate of: 0t/ha, 2t/ha, 4t/ha, 6t/ha and 8t/ha were applied in randomized complete block design with four replications from 2008 to 2011. Yield data was recorded during specific phenological stage of the plant. Result from the analysis of variance from the application of maize stover as soil mulch over years showed the presence of significant difference among treatments on bean yield of Arabica coffee. The highest bean yield (1070 kg/ha) and the lowest bean yield (520 kg/ha) were noted at 8 tons/ha and 0 ton/ha, respectively. Similarly, the pooled analysis of variance over seasons corroborated that the effect of maize stover as a soil mulch at a rate of 6t/ha and 8t/ha showed the presence of no significant difference on bean yield of coffee (p<0.05). The result of the present study also elucidated that, the unmulched control plots had the lowest coffee bean yield. While application of 8 tons/ha of maize stover as a soil mulch significantly increased coffee yield both in 2010 and 2011 cropping seasons. Therefore, on the basis of these results, it can be concluded that applying maize stover as soil mulch during the dry seasons at west Hararghe can help to sustain Arabica coffee production. Thus, it is recommended that application of 8tons/ha maize stover as soil mulch can significantly increase the yield of Arabica coffee and sustains its productivity over years.

description: Field experiment was conducted during the rainy seasons of 2011 and 2012 at the Teaching and Research Farm of the Faculty of Agriculture, Nasarawa State University, Keffi-Lafia Campus to study the competitive behaviour of groundnut in Sesame-groundnut intercropping system. The experiment consisted of four rates of poultry manure (0, 3.0, 6.0 and 9 t ha-1) and two planting arrangement (single alternate row and double alternate row planting arrangement). The eight treatment combinations were laid out in a randomized complete block design with four replications. The results obtained in both the years showed that sesame when grown with groundnut under different rates of poultry manure and planting arrangement appeared to be a dominant crop as indicated by its higher values of Land equivalent ratio, competitive ratio, higher and positive values for aggressivity and area time equivalent ratio. Application of 6 t ha-1 of poultry manure and double alternate row planting arrangement produced the highest values for all the competition indices measured respectively.

description: We perform lattice studies of the gauge theory with Sp(4) gauge group and two flavours of (Dirac) fundamental matter. The global SU(4) symmetry is spontaneously broken by the fermion condensate. The dynamical Wilson fermions in the lattice action introduce a mass that breaks the global symmetry also explicitly. The resulting pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone bosons describe the SU(4)/Sp(4) coset, and are relevant, in the context of physics beyond the Standard Model, for composite Higgs models. We discuss scale setting, continuum extrapolation and finite volume effects in the lattice theory. We study mesonic composite states, which span representations of the unbroken Sp(4) global symmetry, and we measure masses and decay constants of the (flavoured) spin-0 and spin-1 states accessible to the numerical treatment, as a function of the fermion mass. With help from the effective field theory treatment of such mesons, we perform a first extrapolation towards the massless limit. We assess our results by critically comparing to the literature on other models and to the quenched results, and we conclude by outlining future avenues for further exploration. The results of our spectroscopic analysis provide new input data for future phenomenological studies in the contexts of composite Higgs models, and of dark matter models with a strongly coupled dynamical origin.

description: Due to the urgent need of differentiation of infected from vaccinated animals in control and eradication of classical swine fever (CSF) and the shortcomings of current differential diagnostic tools, this study is aiming to establish a RT-nestPCR assay for differential detection of wild-type viruses and lapinized Chinese vaccine strain (C-strain) of classical swine fever virus (CSFV) of high sensitivity. Two pairs of CSFV-specific primers were designed in the conservative regions of NS5B (a non-structural protein encoded by the CSFV genome, which performs the RNA dependent RNA polymerase activity) and 3? un-translated regions (3?-UTR) to encompass the T-rich insertion uniquely existing in the 3?-UTR of C-strain genome. Thus the amplification fragment of C-strain is longer than that of the wild-type viruses for it contains the T-rich insertion region. Two pairs of primers were used in combination and the wild-type viruses and C-strain of CSFV could be detected and accurately distinguished with a high sensitivity through super fine resolution (SFR) argarose gel electrophoresis that displays the different lengths of the amplicons. The detection limit of the C-strain and Shimen strain were respectively 4.5×10-2 pg and 3.2×10-2 pg of viral RNA. The results of the specificity test showed that this method can detect different strains of CSFV without amplifying other non-CSFV pathogens. The results of the detection of 400 clinical samples indicated that 16 samples were CSFV positive in total; in which 4 samples were C-Strain positive and 12 were wild-type CSFV positive. The total CSFV positive rate was 4%. The detection results of the 14 batches of C-Strain vaccines showed that all samples displayed bands of C-Strain amplicons in the SFR argarose gel electrophoresis and all vaccines were free of wild-type virus contamination. In conclusion, the RT-nestPCR assay established in the present study could supply a sensitive and specific test method for distinguishing wild-type CSFV infected animals from those vaccinated with C-strain vaccines in the field.

description: The magnetic structure of the edge sharing cuprate compound Li2CuO2 has been investigated by means of ab initio electronic structure calculations. The first and second neighbor in-chain magnetic interactions are calculated to be -142 K and 22 K, respectively. The ratio between the two parameters is smaller than suggested previously in the literature. The interchain interactions are antiferromagnetic in nature and of the order of a few Kelvins only. Monte Carlo simulations using the ab initio parameters to define the model Hamiltonian result in a Neel temperature in rather good agreement with experiment. Spin population analysis situate the magnetic moment on the copper and oxygen ions somewhere between the completely localized picture derived from experiment and the more delocalized picture based on local density calculations.

Discovery of a spatially extended GeV source in the vicinity of the TeV halo candidate 2HWC J1912+099: a TeV halo or supernova remnant ?

description: Observations by HAWC and Milagro have detected spatially extended TeV sources surrounding middle-aged ($t\sim100-400 \,{\rm kyr}$) pulsars like Geminga and PSR B0656+14, which have been named "TeV Halos", representing very extended TeV pulsar wind nebulae (PWNe) powered by relatively old pulsars. A few more HAWC-detected sources have been suggested to be TeV halo candidates. In this paper, we search for possible GeV counterparts of three TeV halo candidates with Fermi Large Area Telescopes. We detect a new spatially extended GeV source in the vicinity of the TeV halo candidate 2HWC J1912+099, which is also detected by HESS (HESS J1912+101). We find that the size of the GeV source is significantly larger than that of the TeV emission measured by HESS, and a spatial template characteristic of a PWN can fit the GeV data. We suggest that the GeV source is an extended PWN powered by the central middle-aged pulsar PSR J1913+1011. This discovery favors the TeV halo scenario for the TeV source 2HWC J1912+099 (HESS J1912+101), although the possible shell-like morphology measured by HESS challenges this interpretation. Alternatively, the TeV emission could be dominated by a supernova remnant (SNR) via the hadronic process. Future multi-wavelength observations of the source and more precise measurements of the spatial profile of the TeV emission will be useful to distinguish between the two scenarios.

description: Off-target drift of chemical from agricultural spraying can damage sensitive crops, destroy beneficial insects, and intrude on human and domestic animal habitats, threatening environmental quality. Reduction of drift from aerial application can be facilitated at the edge of a field by offsetting spray ½ or 1 boom width from the field edge or by switching off one boom. For single boom application (and especially when spraying in a cross wind), there is some question whether off-target drift of sprayed crop protection agent is influenced by which boom is spraying and if direction of propeller rotation has any effect. An experiment was conducted to determine the effect of propeller wash rotation on aerial spray drift from turbine-powered aircraft. Spray samplers were placed at three sample lines to collect drift fallout and air-entrained particles 104, 134, 195, and 317 meters downwind, perpendicular to the flight path. An aqueous mixture of malathion was applied from the aircraft through fifty hollow cone nozzles. Five total replications were conducted over two days. Each replication had four treatment combinations of actively spraying boom and airplane direction. Results showed that neither active boom nor boom location (upwind or downwind) was statistically significant for either sampling method at the 0.05 level. Blocking the study to account for weather differences increased statistical precision. Thus when analysis was limited to the second day of testing, propeller wash direction was significant at the 0.10 level for the fallout sheets (P = 0.0773), and at the 0.05 level for high volume (Hi-Vol) air samplers (P = 0.0200). Higher concentrations occurred when propeller wash spiraled downwind. Based on results of this study, recommendations for pilots spraying with a single boom near a boundary is to spray so that propeller wash rotation occurs upwind.

description: The aim of this paper is to investigate, empirically, what components of the public spending imply a decreasing effect on the organized crime and what components create opportunities for the organized crime, discussing also the role of government efficiency. The findings show a strikingly consistent pattern. Organized crime mainly operates in the distribution of the public spending for health, housing and community amenities. There is a decreasing effect on organized crime of the public expenditure devoted to education and to create morality values, such as the expenditure for recreation, culture and religion. Finally, government efficiency in public spending is beneficial for reducing the opportunities of the organized crime.

Influence of Point Defects on the Shear Elastic Coefficients and on the Melting Temperature of Copper

description: We present molecular dynamics simulations of the influence of point defects on the shear elastic coefficients of copper. We find that vacancies do not influence these coefficients at all, while the introduction of interstitials causes a large reduction in the elastic coefficients. The simulations establish a phase diagram of the melting temperature as a function of the density of interstitials. A crystal having no free surface undergoes bulk mechanical melting as a result of the vanishing of C'=(C/sub/11-C/sub/12)/2 once the specific volume reaches a critical value, equal to the experimental volume of liquid phase. This critical volume is history independent, in the sense that it can be reached either by heating the crystal or by adding defects at a constant temperature. These results generalize the Born model of melting for the case where point defects are present.

description: Semi-supervised 3D medical image segmentation aims to achieve accurate segmentation using few labelled data and numerous unlabelled data. The main challenge in the design of semi-supervised learning methods consists in the effective use of the unlabelled data for training. A promising solution consists of ensuring consistent predictions across different views of the data, where the efficacy of this strategy depends on the accuracy of the pseudo-labels generated by the model for this consistency learning strategy. In this paper, we introduce a new methodology to produce high-quality pseudo-labels for a consistency learning strategy to address semi-supervised 3D medical image segmentation. The methodology has three important contributions. The first contribution is the Cooperative Rectification Learning Network (CRLN) that learns multiple prototypes per class to be used as external knowledge priors to adaptively rectify pseudo-labels at the voxel level. The second contribution consists of the Dynamic Interaction Module (DIM) to facilitate pairwise and cross-class interactions between prototypes and multi-resolution image features, enabling the production of accurate voxel-level clues for pseudo-label rectification. The third contribution is the Cooperative Positive Supervision (CPS), which optimises uncertain representations to align with unassertive representations of their class distributions, improving the model's accuracy in classifying uncertain regions. Extensive experiments on three public 3D medical segmentation datasets demonstrate the effectiveness and superiority of our semi-supervised learning method.

description: Twisted bilayer graphene (tBLG) has recently emerged as a new platform for studying electron correlations, the strength of which can be controlled via the twist angle. Here, we study the effect of internal screening on electron-electron interactions in undoped tBLG. Using the random phase approximation, we find that the dielectric response of tBLG drastically increases near the magic angle and is highly twist-angle dependent. As a consequence of the abrupt change of the Fermi velocity as a function of wave vector, the screened interaction in real space exhibits attractive regions for certain twist angles near the magic angle. Attractive interactions can induce charge density waves and superconductivity and therefore our findings could be relevant to understand the microscopic origins of the recently observed strong correlation phenomena in undoped tBLG. The resulting screened Hubbard parameters are strongly reduced and exhibit a non-linear dependence on the twist angle. We also carry out calculations with the constrained random phase approximation and parametrize a twist-angle dependent Keldysh model for the resulting effective interaction.

description: Deep neural networks show high accuracy in theproblem of semantic and instance segmentation of biomedicaldata. However, this approach is computationally expensive. Thecomputational cost may be reduced with network simplificationafter training or choosing the proper architecture, which providessegmentation with less accuracy but does it much faster. In thepresent study, we analyzed the accuracy and performance ofUNet and ENet architectures for the problem of semantic imagesegmentation. In addition, we investigated the ENet architecture by replacing of some convolution layers with box-convolutionlayers. The analysis performed on the original dataset consisted of histology slices with mast cells. These cells provide a region forsegmentation with different types of borders, which vary fromclearly visible to ragged. ENet was less accurate than UNet byonly about 1-2%, but ENet performance was 8-15 times faster than UNet one.

description: Brane Gas Cosmology (BGC) is an approach to M-theory cosmology in which the initial state of the Universe is taken to be small, dense and hot, with all fundamental degrees of freedom near thermal equilibrium. Such a starting point is in close analogy with the Standard Big Bang (SBB) model. The topology of the Universe is assumed to be toroidal in all nine spatial dimensions and is filled with a gas of p-branes. The dynamics of winding modes allow, at most, three spatial dimensions to become large, thus explaining the origin of our macroscopic 3+1-dimensional Universe. Here we conduct a detailed analysis of the loitering phase of BGC. We do so by including into the equations of motion that describe the dilaton gravity background some new equations which determine the annihilation of string winding modes into string loops. Specific solutions are found within the model that exhibit loitering, i.e. the Universe experiences a short phase of slow contraction during which the Hubble radius grows larger than the physical extent of the Universe. As a result the brane problem (generalized domain wall problem) in BGC is solved. The initial singularity and horizon problems of the SBB scenario are solved without relying on an inflationary phase.

description: Background: For effective prevention and intervention, and reduction of dependency, it is essential to determine the presence of frailty in the community. Objectives: To describe the prevalence of frailty among elderly persons living independently, in two primary healthcare areas in Spain; to identify factors correlated with its presence. Methods: This descriptive cross-sectional study was conducted between May 2015 and July 2016 among non-institutionalized individuals aged ≥70 years living in the primary healthcare areas of Gipuzkoa and Costa del Sol (Spain). The main outcome variable was the prevalence of frailty (determined by modified Fried criteria). The independent study variables were sociodemographic characteristics, anthropometric data and health-related life habits. Results: The study population consisted of 855 individuals (53% women). The overall prevalence of frailty was 26.2% (Gipuzkoa 14.2%, Costa del Sol 38.0%). Using multiple logistic regression, the following factors were associated with frailty: female sex (OR: 1.98; 95%CI: 1.37–2.86); cumulative illness rating scale (OR: 1.05; 95%CI: 1.00–1.10); self-perceived health status (OR: 0.96; 95%CI: 0.95–0.97); self-perceived unhealthy lifestyle (OR: 3.37; 95%CI: 2.05–8.87); dissatisfaction with the domestic environment (OR: 2.11; 95%CI: 1.18–3.76); and cognitive impairment (OR: 4.10; 95%CI: 2.05–8.19). In the multivariable model, ‘geographical area’ differences persisted, with an OR of 3.51 (95%CI: 2.29–5.36) for the Costa del Sol area, using Gipuzkoa as reference. Conclusion: In this population of community-dwelling persons aged 70 years and over, the prevalence of frailty was 26%. Factors correlated with frailty were female sex, comorbidity, poorer self-perceived lifestyle and health status, and dissatisfaction with the domestic environment.

description: Genus “ Geosesarma De Man, 1892 ”
 The occurrence in the Hawaiian Is. of Geosesarma angustifrons (A. Milne-Edwards, 1869) [not in Geosesarma, possibly in its own genus (P.K.L. Ng, personal communication)], a fresh-water crab known from the southeastern Pacific islands, is questionable. It was described (as Sesarma angustifrons) from material supposedly collected in the Hawaiian Is. (A. Milne-Edwards 1869b: 26). An additional specimen “probably” from the Hawaiian Is. (Rathbun 1906: 840) could not be located by Edmondson (1959: 183). No other specimens have ever been collected from the archipelago. The species was nevertheless listed as occurring in the Hawaiian Is. by McLaughlin et al. (2005).

description: In an acoustic cavity with a heat source, such as a flame in a gas turbine, the thermal energy of the heat source can be converted into acoustic energy, which may generate a loud oscillation. If uncontrolled, these nonlinear acoustic oscillations, also known as thermoacoustic instabilities, can cause large vibrations up to structural failure. Numerical and experimental studies showed that thermoacoustic oscillations can be chaotic. It is not yet known, however, how to minimise such chaotic oscillations. We propose a strategy to analyse and minimise chaotic acoustic oscillations, for which traditional stability and sensitivity methods break down. We investigate the acoustics of a nonlinear heat source in an acoustic resonator. First, we propose covariant Lyapunov analysis as a tool to calculate the stability of chaotic acoustics making connections with eigenvalue and Floquet analyses. We show that covariant Lyapunov analysis is the most general flow stability tool. Second, covariant Lyapunov vector analysis is applied to a chaotic system. The time-averaged acoustic energy is investigated by varying the heat-source parameters. Thermoacoustic systems can display both hyperbolic and non-hyperbolic chaos, as well as discontinuities in the time-averaged acoustic energy. Third, we embed sensitivities of the time-averaged acoustic energy in an optimisation routine. This procedure achieves a significant reduction in acoustic energy and identifies the bifurcations to chaos. The analysis and methods proposed enable the reduction of chaotic oscillations in thermoacoustic systems by optimal passive control. The techniques presented can be used in other unsteady fluid-dynamics problems with virtually no modification.
