description: For the in-ice component of the next generation neutrino observatory at the South Pole, IceCube-Gen2, a new sensor module is being developed, which is an evolution of the D-Egg and mDOM sensors developed for the IceCube Upgrade. The sensor design features up to 18 4-inch PMTs distributed homogeneously in a borosilicate glass pressure vessel. Challenges arise for the mechanical design from the tight constraints on the bore hole diameter (which will be 2 inches smaller than for IceCube Upgrade) and from the close packing of the PMTs. The electronics design must meet the space constraints posed by the mechanical design as well as the power consumption and cost considerations from over 10,000 optical modules being deployed. This contribution presents forward-looking solutions to these design considerations. Prototype modules will be installed and integrated in the IceCube Upgrade.

The colour matrix at next-to-leading-colour accuracy for tree-level multi-parton processes
Creators: name: Frederix, Rikkert

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: We investigate the next-to-leading-colour (NLC) contributions to the colour matrix in the fundamental and the colour-flow decompositions for tree-level processes with all gluons, one quark pair and two quark pairs. By analytical examination of the colour factors, we find the non-zero elements in the colour matrix at NLC. At this colour order, together with the symmetry of the phase-space, it is reduced from factorial to polynomial the scaling of the contributing dual amplitudes as the number of partons participating in the scattering process is increased. This opens a path to an accurate tree-level matrix element generator of which all factorial complexity is removed, without resulting to Monte Carlo sampling over colour.

Speed of light

description: The speed of light is a constant in the universe. Using this as a background, the theory of relativity is established to show that space and time are relative. However, nothing exists to prove why the speed of light is a constant. The purpose of this paper is to show that the speed of light is a constant in our universe because of quantum effects. That us because it does not exist without us measuring it, and it cannot exist for two observers simultaneously. This is done by creating a thought experiment consisting of two observers that have to agree on a constant speed inside a space and a time that is relative

description: We present a detailed investigation of the electrical properties of epitaxial La0.7Sr0.3MnO3/SrTi0.98Nb0.02O3 Schottky junctions. A fabrication process that allows reduction of the junction dimensions to current electronic device size has been employed. A heavily doped semiconductor has been used as a substrate in order to suppress its series resistance. We show that, unlike standard semiconductors, high-quality oxide-based Schottky junctions maintain a highly rectifying behavior for doping concentration of the semiconductor larger than 10^20 cm^(-3). Moreover, the junctions show hysteretic current-voltage characteristics.

description: Generalized dilaton gravity in 2d is the most general consistent deformation of the Jackiw-Teitelboim model that maintains local Lorentz invariance. The action is generically not power-counting renormalizable, thus going beyond the class of models typically studied. Nevertheless, all these models are exactly soluble. We focus on a subclass of dilaton scale invariant models. Within this subclass, we identify a 3-parameter family of models that describe black holes asymptoting to AdS2 in the UV and to dS2 in the IR. Since these models could be interesting for holography, we address thermodynamics and boundary issues, including boundary charges, asymptotic symmetries and holographic renormalization.

Islamic resurgence and the stability of Malay non-elite support
Creators: name: Robinson, Geoffrey
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This study analyzes the political implications of the Islamic resurgence in Malaysia. Based on a theoretical interest in the relationship between non-elite support and political stability, it examines the impact of Islam on the government's ability to maintain the support of the Malay population. Contrary to much of the existing literature on the subject, it argues that the Islamic resurgence, at present, does not pose a serious threat to the stability of Malay non-elite support for the political leadership. It further argues that the maintenance of Malay support has, so far, been achieved without jeopardizing the stability and legitimacy of the political system as a whole. The absence of political destabilization under the influence of the Islamic resurgence is explained, in this study, by reference to two related sets of factors: (1) Societal Conditions; and (2) State Policy. It is suggested that the Islamic resurgence expresses social, economic, political, and religious differences, both between Malays and non-Malays, and within the Malay community. At present, the intra-Malay cleavages form a multipolar rather than a bipolar pattern, and it is argued that this configuration tends to limit the chances for the emergence of a strong, coherent Islamic opposition movement. Under the conditions of an external threat to Islam, the pattern could be expected to become less fragmented and more polarized, thereby affording a greater opportunity for the growth of such a movement. State policies have been effective at undercutting the appeal of anti-government Islamic groups and parties - especially where these policies have reinforced the societal limitations on the emergence of an Islamic opposition.
Extension of Knowledge From Research to Farmer - The Dutch Agricultural Knowledge and Information System

Subjects: Teaching/Communication/Extension/Profession

description: After a brief discussion of some vital qualities of an Agricultural Knowledge and Information System (AKIS), the AKIS in the Netherlands is outlined. An AKIS should facilitate the continuous innovation and adaptation in the agricultural sector which is required to keep it competitive. In spite of the involvement of many actors with different objectives and a high level of autonomy, an AKIS should include sufficient synergy for a satisfactory performance. Prerequisites are intensive contacts, formal as well as informal, and an open exchange of knowledge and information, particularly among key-actors. In the Dutch AKIS three levels on which institutions operate may be distinguished. These divide the flow of knowledge and information from the primary sources to the farmer and vice versa. On each of these levels many institutions operate, while there is an elaborated information network among institutions on the same and adjacent levels. Mainstreams are in the realms of public education, extension and research, but private activities in those fields are also involved. The Dutch AKIS is believed to perform well because of the heavy involvement of the Ministery of Agriculture and the cooperating farmers unions in the mainstream-activities and the intensive contacts between these two key-actors.

The Vertical Structure of Planet-induced Gaps in Proto-Planetary Discs

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2007
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: Giant planets embedded in circumstellar discs are expected to open gaps in these discs. We examine the vertical structure of the gap edges. We find that the planet excites spiral arms with significant (Mach number of a half) vertical motion of the gas, and discuss the implications of these motions. In particular, the spiral arms will induce strong vertical stirring of the dust, making the edge appeared `puffed up' relative to the bulk of the disc. Infra-red observations (sensitive to dust) would be dominated by the light from the thick inner edge of the disc. Sub-millimetre observations (sensitive to gas velocities) would appear to be hot in `turbulent' motions (actually the ordered motion caused by the passage of the spiral arms), but cold in chemistry. Resolved sub-millimetre maps of circumstellar discs might even be able to detect the spiral arms directly.

description: Language writing errors are something that often happens. Especially for language learners. In Indonesia, English is a foreign language. This makes language learning feel a little difficult in writing. This research is an analysis of 6th semester English language education students at Muhammadiyah University, Tangerang. In this research, researchers used descriptive method and collecting the data by using in-depth interviews and focus group discussions. Moreover, the technique that researcher used is observation and documentation study related to writing in finding errors in writing made by students. Students often use online translation tools without double-checking the words. This leads to many lexical errors being generated by online translation tools. There were 15 students who were used as material for analysis this time. The results show that there are four out of seven types of lexical errors in students' writing. These are errors in choosing words, collocation errors, redundancy errors, and spelling errors.

We analyze this phenomenon in the context of strong coupling Eliashberg theory, deriving a `single lifetime' model for describing the temperature evolution of the spectral gap as measured by single particle probes such as photoemission and tunneling.

Hierarchies of Planning and Reinforcement Learning for Robot Navigation

description: Solving robotic navigation tasks via reinforcement learning (RL) is challenging due to their sparse reward and long decision horizon nature. However, in many navigation tasks, high-level (HL) task representations, like a rough floor plan, are available. Previous work has demonstrated efficient learning by hierarchal approaches consisting of path planning in the HL representation and using sub-goals derived from the plan to guide the RL policy in the source task. However, these approaches usually neglect the complex dynamics and sub-optimal sub-goal-reaching capabilities of the robot during planning. This work overcomes these limitations by proposing a novel hierarchical framework that utilizes a trainable planning policy for the HL representation. Thereby robot capabilities and environment conditions can be learned utilizing collected rollout data. We specifically introduce a planning policy based on value iteration with a learned transition model (VI-RL). In simulated robotic navigation tasks, VI-RL results in consistent strong improvement over vanilla RL, is on par with vanilla hierarchal RL on single layouts but more broadly applicable to multiple layouts, and is on par with trainable HL path planning baselines except for a parking task with difficult non-holonomic dynamics where it shows marked improvements.

description: Systems with long-range interactions display a short-time relaxation towards Quasi Stationary States (QSSs) whose lifetime increases with system size. With reference to the Hamiltonian Mean Field (HMF) model, we here show that a maximum entropy principle, based on Lynden-Bell's pioneering idea of "violent relaxation", predicts the presence of out-of-equilibrium phase transitions separating the relaxation towards homogeneous (zero magnetization) or inhomogeneous (non zero magnetization) QSSs. When varying the initial condition within a family of "water-bags" with different initial magnetization and energy, first and second order phase transition lines are found that merge at an out--of--equilibrium tricritical point. Metastability is theoretically predicted and numerically checked around the first-order phase transition line.

description: We present a complete characterization for the local distinguishability of orthogonal $2\otimes 3$ pure states except for some special cases of three states. Interestingly, we find there is a large class of four or three states that are indistinguishable by local projective measurements and classical communication (LPCC) can be perfectly distinguishable by LOCC. That indicates the ability of LOCC for discriminating $2\otimes 3$ states is strictly more powerful than that of LPCC, which is strikingly different from the case of multi-qubit states. We also show that classical communication plays a crucial role for local distinguishability by constructing a class of $m\otimes n$ states which require at least $2\min\{m,n\}-2$ rounds of classical communication in order to achieve a perfect local discrimination.

description: We analyze all available experimental data on the $ν_μ$ and $\overlineν_μ$ total and differential cross sections of charged-current single pion production through the decay of intermediate nucleon and baryon resonances measured on hydrogen and deuterium targets in the accelerator experiments at ANL, BNL, FNAL, and CERN. These data are used to determine the current "resonance" axial-vector mass of the nucleon and to fine-tune the nonresonance non-interfering background contribution which described within the Rein-Sehgal approach. For this analysis, we revise the phenomenological model and the experimental dataset for the fits, modify the method of likelihood analysis compared to the previous study. The obtained model parameters coming in combination with a revised strategy for the normalization of the BW distributions are slightly different from the values used by default.

description: The objective of this paper was to develop an agricultural accounting model for Brazilian farmers. Existing models of the most important Brazilian institutions working with farmers were revised with respect to the main components of an accounting system. The model developed is an attempt to bring these existing models closer to traditional accounting. In order to be useful for farm business analyses, however, the system developed did not follow some of the generally accepted accounting principles such as the use of historical values for asset valuation.

description: The tidal heating of hypothetical rocky (or terrestrial) extra-solar planets spans a wide range of values depending on stellar masses and initial orbits. Tidal heating may be sufficiently large (in many cases, in excess of radiogenic heating) and long-lived to drive plate tectonics, similar to the Earth's, which may enhance the planet's habitability. In other cases, excessive tidal heating may result in Io-like planets with violent volcanism, probably rendering them unsuitable for life. On water-rich planets, tidal heating may generate sub-surface oceans analogous to Europa's with similar prospects for habitability. Tidal heating may enhance the outgassing of volatiles, contributing to the formation and replenishment of a planet's atmosphere. To address these issues, we model the tidal heating and evolution of hypothetical extra-solar terrestrial planets. The results presented here constrain the orbital and physical properties required for planets to be habitable.

Decision trees were used to determine optimal strategy for beef cattle management during the dry season. Results showed that feeding the animals with high total digestive nutrients content rations, aiming at higher weight gains, was the best alternative available. When managers belief, with probability equal to or greater than 0.3, that the economy is in the descendent phase of the beef price cycle, them selling the feeder cattle is the best strategy.

description: The purpose of this paper is to propose the possibility that relativity and quantum mechanics could be unified. In order to do this, a reference frame is developed. The reference frame proposed in this paper is a particular type of motion which is described as fundamental to every mass. Using this as a foundation, pilot-wave theory is then used to confirm and make predictions for the quantum realm. Further improvements are needed however to show how this fundamental motion is connected to massive objects and objects in non-euclidean space, but overall the paper serves as an introduction to this idea.

description: We propose a general and formal statistical framework for multiple tests of association between known fixed features of a genome and unknown parameters of the distribution of variable features of this genome in a population of interest. The known gene-annotation profiles, corresponding to the fixed features of the genome, may concern Gene Ontology (GO) annotation, pathway membership, regulation by particular transcription factors, nucleotide sequences, or protein sequences. The unknown gene-parameter profiles, corresponding to the variable features of the genome, may be, for example, regression coefficients relating possibly censored biological and clinical outcomes to genome-wide transcript levels, DNA copy numbers, and other covariates. A generic question of great interest in current genomic research regards the detection of associations between biological annotation metadata and genome-wide expression measures. This biological question may be translated as the test of multiple hypotheses concerning association measures between gene-annotation profiles and gene-parameter profiles. A general and rigorous formulation of the statistical inference question allows us to apply the multiple hypothesis testing methodology developed in [Multiple Testing Procedures with Applications to Genomics (2008) Springer, New York] and related articles, to control a broad class of Type I error rates, defined as generalized tail probabilities and expected values for arbitrary functions of the numbers of Type I errors and rejected hypotheses. The resampling-based single-step and stepwise multiple testing procedures of [Multiple Testing Procedures with Applications to Genomics (2008) Springer, New York] take into account the joint distribution of the test statistics and provide Type I error control in testing problems involving general data generating distributions (with arbitrary dependence structures among variables), null hypotheses, and test statistics.

description: We analyze spectroscopic and photometric data to determine the projected inclinations of stars in three open clusters: the Pleiades, Praesepe, and M35. We determine the $\sin i$ values of 42, 35, and 67 stars in each cluster, respectively, and from their distributions we find that isotropic spins and moderate alignment are both consistent with the Pleiades and Praesepe data. While it is difficult to distinguish between these scenarios for a single cluster, an ensemble of such distributions may facilitate a distinction. The M35 inclination distribution is most consistent with a superposition of isotropic and anisotropic spins, the source of which could be systematic error or a physical grouping of aligned stars. We also study internal cluster kinematics using radial velocities and proper motions. Our kinematics analysis reveals significant plane-of-sky rotation in Praesepe, with a mean velocity of $0.132 \pm 0.022$ km s$^{-1}$ in a clockwise direction.

A study of the erythropoietin requirements of erythroid progenitors in polycythemia vera
Creators: name: Cashman, Johanne Dianne
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Erythroid progenitor cells of the abnormal clone in polycythemia vera (PV) are capable of colony formation in vitro without the addition of erythropoietin, the regulatory hormone required for normal in vivo and-in vitro erythropoiesis. This property of "erythropoietin-independent" colony formation has been considered a marker for the abnormal clone in PV, although recent studies indicate that not all erythropoietic members of the clone may be capable of exhibiting this abnormal phenotype. The present studies were undertaken to investigate the level of maturation at which establishment of an erythropoietin-independent phenotype might be determined. A series of experiments was performed on the replated progeny of single primitive hemopoietic cells already committed to erythropoiesis (primitive BFU-E). First, conditions were established to maximize the number of erythroid colonies obtainable in secondary assays of replated primary colonies of primitive BFU-E origin. Time course studies and experiments with irradiated peripheral blood "feeder" cells treated in different ways established that results were best when primary colonies were allowed to grow for 9 days prior to replating and when 9 day old feeders stored at 4°C were included in the secondary assay medium. Second, a technique was developed for dividing such colonies between 2 secondary assay cultures. Experiments with normal primary colonies transferred to 2 secondary assays, both containing erythropoietin, showed that the variation between true replicates was random, indicating that the procedure used divided each primary colony equally. Third, it was shown that secondary assays to which no erythropoietin was added failed to support erythroid colony formation by progenitors present in normal 9 day old primary colonies. Finally, the distribution of erythropoietin-dependent and erythropoietin-independent phenotypes in individual colonies derived from primitive BFU-E from 5 patients with. PV was assessed by replating experiments. Most of the replated colonies from PV cultures that yielded erythroid colonies in secondary assays containing 3 units of erythropoietin per ml also produced some erythroid colonies in the paired replicate that contained < 0.01 units of erythropoietin per ml. However, fewer colonies were consistently obtained in the low erythropoietin cultures. These results indicate that in PV, most of the primitive erythroid bursts that generate phenotypically abnormal progeny capable of erythroid colony formation under conditions which are non-permissive for normal cells also produce significant numbers of progeny that are phenotypically normal in this respect. It is concluded that the capacity for erythropoietin-independent growth and maturation exhibited in vitro by terminally differentiating members of the abnormal clone in PV is not commonly fixed at or prior to the primitive BFU-E stage of erythropoietic cell development.

Angular momentum conservation and torsional oscillations in the Sun and solar-like stars

Year: 2007

description: The solar torsional oscillations, i.e., the perturbations of the angular velocity of rotation associated with the eleven-year activity cycle, are a manifestation of the interaction among the interior magnetic fields, amplified and modulated by the solar dynamo, and rotation, meridional flow and turbulent thermal transport. Therefore, they can be used, at least in principle, to put constraints on that interaction. Similar phenomena are expected to be observed in solar-like stars and can be modelled to shed light on analogous interactions in different environments. The source of the torsional oscillations is investigated by means of a model for the angular momentum transport within the convection zone. A description of the torsional oscillations is introduced, based on an analytical solution of the angular momentum equation in the mean-field approach. It provides information on the intensity and location of the torques producing the redistribution of the angular momentum within the convection zone of the Sun along the activity cycle. The method can be extended to solar-like stars for which some information on the time-dependence of the differential rotation is becoming available. Illustrative applications to the Sun and solar-like stars are presented. Under the hypothesis that the solar torsional oscillations are due to the mean-field Lorentz force, the mean amplitude of the Maxwell stresses and the phase relationship between poloidal and toroidal field components are obtained. Our preliminary results show the capability of the proposed approach to constrain the amplitude, phase and location of the perturbations leading to the observed torsional oscillations.

Tergit wie bei D. acutatus nov.sp. Aedoeagus (Abb. 91, 109), der Apikalteil des Medianlobus spitzwinklig in eine breit abgerundete Spitze verengt, ventral mit vielen langen Borsten; der Innensack zeigt eine lange schmale Tube wie bei D. acutus ZHENG und D. dabashanus nov.sp., die Tube besitzt jedoch im Unterschied zu den genannten Arten eine proximale Einschnürung; Parameren länger als der Medianlobus, mit 12-15 langen Borsten.
Weibchen: 8. Sternit zum Hinterrand konisch verschmälert, in der Mitte kurz abgerundet. Valvifer apikal gesägt. 10. Tergit leicht dreieckig, in der Hinterrandmitte breit abgerundet.
Differenzial diagnose: Auch diese neue Art ist dem D. acutus ZHENG, nahe verwandt. Von ihm und den ihm ähnlichsten Arten unterscheidet sie sich sicher durch ihren Aedoeagus, im Übrigen so: von D. acutus und D. dabashanus nov.sp. durch ihre kleineren Elytrenmakeln, vom letzteren auch durch dichtere Punktierung des Vorderkörpers, von D. acutatus nov.sp. durch schmäleren Kopf und fehlende Netzung des vorderen Abdomens, schliesslich von D. deviatus nov.sp. durch geringere Grösse und durch gedrängtere Punktierung ihres Vorderkörpers.
