description: In this paper we study a generalized class of Maxwell-Boltzmann equations which in addition to the usual collision term contains a linear deformation term described by a matrix A. This class of equations arises, for instance, from the analysis of homoenergetic solutions for the Boltzmann equation considered by many authors since 1950s. Our main goal is to study a large time asymptotics of solutions under assumption of smallness of the matrix A. The main result of the paper is formulated in Theorem 2.1. Informally stated, this Theorem says that, for sufficiently small norm of A, any non-negative solution with finite second moment tends to a self-similar solution of relatively simple form for large values of time. This is what we call "the self-similar asymptotics". We also prove that the higher order moments of the self-similar profile are finite under further smallness condition on the matrix A.

description: We present a tight-binding study of donor impurities in Si, demonstrating the adequacy of this approach for this problem by comparison with effective mass theory and experimental results. We consider the response of the system to an applied electric field: donors near a barrier material and in the presence of an uniform electric field may undergo two different ionization regimes according to the distance of the impurity to the Si/barrier interface. We show that for impurities ~ 5 nm below the barrier, adiabatic ionization is possible within switching times of the order of one picosecond, while for impurities ~ 10 nm or more below the barrier, no adiabatic ionization may be carried out by an external uniform electric field. Our results are discussed in connection with proposed Si:P quantum computer architectures.

description: This study evaluates the effect of a quick-service restaurant (QSR) strategy which changes de-fault calorie-dense menu items to healthier options on children’ menu consumption behaviors. A series of difference-in-differences (DID) models are estimated to compare sales between treat-ment and control group restaurants in the Washington State. The results do not provide evidence that adding healthier options causes consumers to make healthier diet choices. This negative re-sult suggests that more proactive interdiction is needed to make an impact on childhood obesity. Government policies such as those that require additional, possibly highlighted, information and/or education are likely to have a greater effect.
title: Globalization and Inflation: The Role of China

Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2008

description: In this paper, we develop a theoretical model which identifies four channels–import prices, competition with domestic suppliers and workers, and commodity prices–through which price- and wage-setting conditions in country j may affect inflation in country i. We estimate a dynamic inflation equation derived from the theoretical model using a quarterly dataset of eighteen OECD countries over the 1984-2006 period. Although our methodology can be applied to any pair of countries, we focus on the effect of China on the inflation rate of other countries. Our results suggest that while China's negative effect on global inflation has been quantitatively modest, it has increased in absolute terms since the early 2000s. We also find evidence that, for most countries examined, competition with domestic suppliers has been the most important channel.
description: Les auteurs élaborent un modèle théorique faisant intervenir quatre canaux (prix à l'importation, concurrence livrée aux fournisseurs et aux travailleurs nationaux et prix des produits de base) par lesquels les conditions d'établissement des prix et des salaires dans le pays j peuvent influer sur l'inflation dans le pays i. À l'aide de données trimestrielles se rapportant à 18 pays membres de l'Organisation de coopération et de développement économiques et couvrant la période 1984-2006, ils estiment une équation d'inflation dynamique inspirée du modèle théorique. Bien que leur méthodologie puisse être appliquée à n'importe quelle paire de pays, les auteurs examinent surtout l'effet de l'émergence de la Chine sur le taux d'inflation des autres pays. Leurs résultats indiquent que, si les retombées négatives de l'essor de l'économie chinoise sur l'inflation mondiale sont modestes en termes quantitatifs, elles ont toutefois augmenté en valeur absolue depuis le début des années 2000. Ils constatent également que, dans la plupart des pays examinés, la concurrence livrée aux fournisseurs nationaux constitue le plus important des canaux étudiés.

description: Black phosphorus has attracted great research interest due to its numerous applications in electronic devices, optoelectronic devices, energy storages and so on. Compared with the majority of two-dimensional materials, black phosphorus possesses a unique property, i.e. the strong in-plane anisotropy. All the properties reported so far, including its effective mass, electron mobility, light absorption, thermal conductivity and so on, have shown great anisotropy in the basal plane. This property renders black phosphorus unique applications not achievable with other two-dimensional materials. In this work, however, we discover a remarkable isotropic behavior in the strongly anisotropic black phosphorus, i.e. its electrostatic screening of point charges. We use the tip-induced band bending of a scanning tunneling microscope to map out the Coulomb field of ionized potassium adatoms on black phosphorus, and reveal its isotropic charge screening. This discovery is important for understanding electron scattering and transport in black phosphorus.

description: The energy drink market is one of the fastest growing markets in the non-alcoholic beverage industry. Yet, relatively little is known about this set of “new age” beverages. To fill this research void, we provide a historical perspective on this market and gather information from a local retailer located close to the campus of Texas A&M University to estimate the demand interrelationships for major energy drink brands (Full Throttle, Monster, Red Bull, and Rock-star). We employ the Barten synthetic demand system in this regard and obtain estimates of own-price, cross-price, and expenditure elasticities for the respective brands.

description: We present Chandra observations of the X-ray environment of a sample of 6 BL Lacertae objects. The improved sensitivity of the ACIS experiment allows us to separate the core X-ray emission from the contribution of diffuse emission from the host galaxy/cluster scales. Within the short (2-6 ks) ACIS exposures, we find evidence for diffuse X-ray emission in 3 sources (BL Lac, PKS 0548-322, and PKS 2005-489). The diffuse emission can be modeled with a King profile with beta~0.3-0.6, core radii rc~15-28 kpc, and 0.4-5 keV luminosities in the range 10^{41}-10^{42} erg/s. In the remaining 3 sources, one (3C 371) has a radial profile entirely consistent with an unresolved source, while two (1ES 2344+514 and 1ES 2321+419) show evidence for weak diffuse emission on kpc scales. These results support current models for radio-loud AGN unifying BL Lacs and FRI radio galaxies through the orientation of their jets. In PKS 0548-322 and PKS 2005-489, we also find evidence for diffuse emission on cluster scales, although the spatial properties of this emission are not constrained. The temperature and luminosity of the cluster gas are typical of normal clusters. Interestingly, these are the two brightest sources of the sample, suggesting a link between environment and nuclear activity.

title: The Role of Bank Capital in the Propagation of Shocks
Creators: name: Meh, Cesaire

Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2008

description: Recent events in financial markets have underlined the importance of analyzing the link between the financial health of banks and real economic activity. This paper contributes to this analysis by constructing a dynamic general equilibrium model in which the balance sheet of banks affects the propagation of shocks. We use the model to conduct quantitative experiments on the economy's response to technology and monetary policy shocks, as well as to disturbances originating within the banking sector, which we interpret as episodes of distress in financial markets. We show that, following adverse shocks, economies whose banking sectors remain well-capitalized experience smaller reductions in bank lending and less pronounced downturns. Bank capital thus increases an economy's ability to absorb shocks and, in doing so, affects the conduct of monetary policy. The model is also used to shed light on the ongoing debate over bank capital regulation.
description: Les récents événements survenus sur les marchés financiers illustrent à quel point il est important d'analyser la relation entre la santé financière des banques et l'activité économique réelle. Les auteurs construisent pour ce faire un modèle dynamique d'équilibre général dans lequel le bilan des banques influe sur la propagation des chocs. À l'aide de ce modèle, ils mènent des simulations quantitatives concernant la réaction de l'économie à un choc technologique, à un choc de politique monétaire ainsi qu'à des perturbations émanant du secteur bancaire, qu'ils assimilent à des périodes de détresse sur les marchés financiers. Les auteurs montrent que, lors de chocs défavorables, les économies dont le secteur bancaire demeure bien doté en capital ne voient pas le crédit bancaire diminuer autant et connaissent un ralentissement moins marqué. La présence de banques au bilan solide aide donc l'économie à mieux absorber les chocs, ce qui a des répercussions sur la conduite de la politique monétaire. Le modèle utilisé apporte un éclairage intéressant au débat en cours sur la réglementation des fonds propres des banques.

description: The Idaho Potato Commission funded a project to help answer the question: What would be the economic impact if the potato industry increased the minimum size for fresh potatoes? We estimate that increasing the minimum size from 4 to 5 ounces would divert about 5 million hundredweight (cwt) to dehydrators. Idaho fresh potato revenue would increase $73 million. Idaho dehydrated potato revenue would increase $18 million. The total impact would be increased revenue of $91 million. A sensitivity analysis showed that revenue increases are larger when more potatoes are diverted.

description: Cull cows are a revenue source that gets relatively little attention for cow-calf producers with respect to marketing strategy. This three-year study compares alternative marketing strategies with the traditional practice of marketing spring-calving cull cows in the fall immediately after weaning. Cull cows were randomly assigned to either a pasture or low-cost dry-lot feeding program. Results favor the lower cost, pasture-based feeding program with spring marketing over fall marketing. Low-cost maintenance coupled with seasonal increases in slaughter cow prices beyond culling combined to increase net returns for retaining and feeding cows on native pasture for about a three-month period.

Year: 2008

description: This paper measures the welfare gains of switching from inflation-targeting to price-level targeting under imperfect credibility. Vestin (2006) shows that when the monetary authority cannot commit to future policy, price-level targeting yields higher welfare than inflation targeting. We revisit this issue by introducing imperfect credibility, which is modeled as gradual adjustment of the private sector's beliefs about the policy change. We find that gains from switching to price-level targeting are small. A welfare loss occurs, if imperfect credibility is highly persistent.
description: Les auteurs mesurent les gains de bien-être attendus de l'abandon d'une cible d'inflation au profit d'une cible fondée sur le niveau des prix en contexte de crédibilité imparfaite. Selon Vestin (2006), la poursuite d'une cible de niveau des prix permet d'améliorer le bien-être lorsque l'autorité monétaire ne peut s'engager au sujet de sa politique future. Les auteurs réexaminent la question en posant l'hypothèse d'une crédibilité imparfaite, modélisée sous la forme d'une adaptation progressive des croyances du secteur privé à l'adoption d'une cible de niveau des prix. Si gains il y a, concluent-ils, ceux-ci sont modestes. On observe toutefois un recul du bien-être si le manque de crédibilité persiste longtemps.
High Velocity Cloud Complex H: A Satellite of the Milky Way in a Retrograde Orbit?

description: Observations with the Green Bank Telescope of 21cm HI emission from the high-velocity cloud Complex H suggest that it is interacting with the Milky Way. A model in which the cloud is a satellite of the Galaxy in an inclined, retrograde circular orbit reproduces both the cloud's average velocity and its velocity gradient with latitude. The model places Complex H at approximately 33 kpc from the Galactic Center on a retrograde orbit inclined about 45 degrees to the Galactic plane. At this location it has an HI mass > 6 10^6 Msun and dimensions of at least 10 by 5 kpc. Some of the diffuse HI associated with the cloud has apparently been decelerated by interaction with Galactic gas. Complex H has similarities to the dwarf irregular galaxy Leo A and to some compact high-velocity clouds, and has an internal structure nearly identical to parts of the Magellanic Stream, with a pressure P/k about 100 cm^{-3} K.

description: The efficacy of carbon dioxide (CO2) to reduce biofouling by quagga mussels (Dreissena rostriformis bugensis) in raw water systems was investigated. Experiments were conducted in a mobile laboratory located at Bureau of Reclamation Davis Dam Hydropower Facility and supplied with raw water from Lake Mohave, a reservoir of the Colorado River, USA. Incoming water was split between five chambers, each infused with CO2 at a different rate. Raw reservoir water containing quagga larvae (veligers) was mixed with CO2 chamber outflows and delivered to tanks containing settlement plates. Two experiments were conducted. Experiment 1 tested continuous infusion at target concentrations of 30, 45, 60, 75, and 100 mg L−1 dCO2 (dissolved CO2). Experiment 2 evaluated intermittent infusion schedules: 24 h on/off with 50, 75, and 100 mg L−1 dCO2 and 24 h once/week with 100 mg L−1 dCO2. In Experiment 1, the percent settlement decreased with mean CO2 concentration, ranging from 5.0% to < 0.1% in 28.7 and 92.2 mg L−1 dCO2, respectively. In Experiment 2, the efficacy of 24 h on/off at dCO2 > 72.2 mg L−1 was similar to continuous treatment. The least effective treatment was 24 h once weekly at 95 mg L−1 dCO2. These results demonstrate that CO2 treatment may reduce mussel biofouling in raw water systems.

subject: Revenues and Costs on the Relative Returns of Illinois Grain Farms

description: Factors and characteristics associated with farm profitability are of considerable interest to farm operators, farm managers, and researchers. This paper uses farm financial records from the Illinois Farm Business Management Association from 1995 to 2011 to classify grain farms into performance groups based on management returns. Performance groups are defined both on an annual basis and over two different five-year periods. The relative contributions of revenues and various cost categories to the differences in returns earned by the performance groups are quantified. Results show that farms in the high performance group tend to have both higher revenues and lower costs across all categories. Significant portions of the differences in revenues are attributed to variation in revenues and power, labor, and land costs. Power and labor costs are particularly important in determining performance, both in individual years and over time. This analysis provides an update to the literature on factors affecting farm profitability, and allows for comparison of the relative importance of these factors over 17 years with extended periods of both high and low farm incomes and returns.

Star formation rate and metallicity of damped Lyman-alpha absorbers in cosmological SPH simulations

Publisher: name: arXiv

description: We study the distribution of the star formation rate and metallicity of damped Lyman-alpha absorbers using cosmological SPH simulations of the Lambda cold dark matter model in the redshift range z=0-4.5. Our approach includes a phenomenological model of galactic wind. We find that there is a positive correlation between the projected stellar mass density and the neutral hydrogen column density (NHI) of DLAs for high NHI systems, and that there is a good correspondence in the spatial distribution of stars and DLAs in the simulations. The evolution of typical star-to-gas mass ratios in DLAs can be characterised by an increase from about 2 at z=4.5 to 3 at z=3, to 10 at z=1, and finally to 20 at z=0. We also find that the projected SFR density in DLAs follows the Kennicutt law well at all redshifts, and the simulated values are consistent with the recent observational estimates of this quantity by Wolfe et al. (2003a,b). The rate of evolution in the mean metallicity of simulated DLAs as a function of redshift is mild, and is consistent with the rate estimated from observations. The predicted metallicity of DLAs is generally sub-solar in our simulations, and there is a significant scatter in the distribution of DLA metallicity for a given NHI. However, we find that the median metallicity of simulated DLAs is close to that of Lyman-break galaxies, which is higher than the values typically observed for DLAs by nearly an order of magnitude. This discrepancy with observations could be due to an inadequate treatment of SN feedback in our current simulations, perhaps indicating that metals are not expelled efficiently enough from DLAs by outflows. Alternatively, the current observations might be missing the majority of the high metallicity DLAs due to selection effects. (abridged)

description: Many agricultural producers purchased capital items the past few years and some used borrowed funds to finance the purchase. The principal payments on those term loans are paid from net farm income. This paper discusses the sensitivity of farm loan repayment capacity to changes in the gross revenue and operating expenses that determine net farm income. Sensitivity analysis is conducted using the Purdue Farm Financial Analysis Spreadsheet. The sensitivity analysis and application of the updated program are illustrated using a case study

description: We exactly calculate the particle number $N$ of scalar fields which are created from an initial vacuum in certain higher-dimensional cosmological models. The spacetimes in these models are the four-dimensional Chitre-Hartle or radiation-dominated universe with extra spaces which are static or power-law contracting. Except for some models in which no particles could be produced, the distribution of created particles shows a thermal behavior, at least in the limit of high three-dimensional "momentum" $k$. In some models, $N$ does not depend on the magnitude of the extra-dimensional "momentum" $k_c$ if $k_c$ is nonvanishing. A cutoff momentum $k_c$ may emerge in some models, and particles with $k\le k_c$ could not be produced. We also discuss these results.

title: A Model of Costly Capital Reallocation and Aggregate Productivity
Creators: name: Cao, Shutao
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2008

description: The author studies the effects of capital reallocation (the flow of productive capital across firms and establishments mainly through changes in ownership) on aggregate labour productivity. Capital reallocation is an important activity in the United States: on average, its total value is 3–4 per cent of U.S. GDP. Firms with lower productivity are more likely to be reallocated to (i.e., bought by) more productive firms. Reallocated establishments experience an increase in productivity. The author develops a dynamic model of capital reallocation and compares its predictions with U.S. data. In the model, limited participation in acquisition markets by heterogeneous firms results in an increase in aggregate productivity. With reasonably chosen parameter values, policy experiments show that the increased reallocation of capital and labour contributed as much as a 17 per cent improvement in aggregate labour productivity in the mid-1980s. When a positive total-factor-productivity shock occurs, in steady state the increase in aggregate productivity arises entirely from this shock, and reallocation is unaffected.
description: L'auteur étudie les effets de la réaffectation du capital (flux du capital productif entre les entreprises et les établissements, surtout à la faveur d'un changement de propriété) sur la productivité globale du travail. Aux États-Unis, la réaffectation du capital a un rôle important puisque les montants concernés représentent en moyenne 3 à 4 % du PIB au total. Les firmes productives sont plus susceptibles d'acquérir les actifs de sociétés peu performantes, et les entreprises qui changent de propriétaire voient leur productivité augmenter. L'auteur construit un modèle dynamique pour quantifier la réaffectation du capital et compare les prédictions obtenues aux données américaines. Dans ce modèle, l'activité limitée de sociétés hétérogènes sur les marchés d'acquisition entraîne une hausse de la productivité globale. Des simulations réalisées à l'aide de valeurs paramétriques plausibles montrent que la réaffectation accrue du capital et de la main-d'oeuvre est à l'origine d'une progression de 17 % de la productivité globale du travail au milieu des années 1980. Lorsqu'une hausse de la productivité totale des facteurs est observée en régime permanent, la croissance de la productivité globale s'explique entièrement par ce choc; la réaffectation du capital n'y est pour rien.

description: Zoono GermFree24 is a quaternary ammonium compound-based hand sanitiser. Its efficacy against planktonic bacteria is well established, but efficacy against biofilms has not been tested. We investigated the antibiofilm efficacy of Zoono GermFree24 hand sanitiser and a modified formulation against biofilms of Staphylococcus aureus ATCC 6538 and Pseudomonas aeruginosa ATCC 27853 grown in vitro using the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) biofilm reactor and 96-pin lids. Biofilms were immersed in Zoono GermFree24 or Zoono B22-1402A (modified formulation) for 5 min, 1 h, 6 h or overnight (22 ± 2 h). The antiseptic was neutralised and the bacteria remaining after treatment were cultured and quantified. Zoono GermFree24 and Zoono B22-1402A caused time-dependent reductions in viable biofilms of both species with both methods of culture and testing, with more rapid biofilm eradication observed for Zoono B22-1402A. Biofilms grown on 96-pin lids were more quickly eradicated than those grown in the CDC biofilm reactor.

title: Import Price Dynamics in Major Advanced Economies and Heterogeneity in Exchange Rate Pass-Through
Creators: name: Dees, Stephane
name: Burgert, Matthias
name: Parent, Nicolas
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2008

description: This paper aims at showing heterogeneity in the degree of exchange rate pass-through to import prices in major advanced economies at three different levels: 1) across destination markets; 2) across types of exporters (distinguishing developed economy from emerging economy exporters); and 3) over time. Based on monthly data over the period 1991–2007, the results show first that large destination markets exhibit the lowest degrees of pass-through. The degree of pass-through for goods imported from emerging economies is also significantly lower than for those from developed economies. Regarding the evolution over time, no clear change in pricing behaviours can be identified and particular events, like large exchange rates depreciations during the Asian crisis, seem to influence the degree of pass-through related to imports from emerging economies.
description: Les auteurs tentent de montrer que les variations du taux de change se répercutent diversement sur les prix des importations des principales économies avancées. Ils distinguent trois angles d'étude : 1) les marchés de destination; 2) les types d'exportateurs (les exportateurs des pays développés sont différenciés de leurs homologues des économies émergentes); 3) le temps. D'après les données mensuelles de la période 1991-2007 qu'ils examinent, c'est sur les grands marchés de destination que le degré de répercussion des mouvements de change est le plus faible. Leur degré de répercussion est aussi nettement plus limité dans le cas des biens en provenance d'économies émergentes que pour ceux importés de pays développés. L'analyse ne fait ressortir aucun changement clair des pratiques en matière de prix au fil du temps, mais certains événements, comme les fortes dépréciations survenues pendant la crise asiatique, semblent influencer l'ampleur des mouvements de change répercutés sur les prix des biens issus d'économies émergentes.

Polarization of prompt GRB emission: evidence for electromagnetically-dominated outflow

description: Observations by the {\RHESSI} satellite of large polarization of the prompt $γ$-ray emission from the Gamma Ray Burst GRB021206 \citep{coburn03} imply that the magnetic field coherence scale is larger than the size of the visible emitting region, $\sim R/Γ$, where $R$ is the radius of the flow, $Γ$ is the associated Lorentz factor. Such fields cannot be generated in a causally disconnected, hydrodynamically dominated outflow. Electromagnetic models of GRBs \citep{lyutikov02}, in which large scale, dynamically dominant, magnetic fields are present in the outflow from the very beginning, provide a natural explanation of this large reported linear polarization. We derive Stokes parameters of synchrotron emission of a relativistically moving plasma with a given magnetic field configuration and calculate the pulse averaged polarization fraction of the emission from a relativistically expanding shell carrying global toroidal magnetic field. For viewing angles larger than $1/Γ$ the observed patch of the emitting shell has almost homogeneous magnetic field, producing a large fractional polarization ($56% $ for a power-law energy distribution of relativistic particles $dn/dε\propto ε^{-3}$). The maximum polarization is smaller than the theoretical upper limit for a stationary plasma in uniform magnetic field due to relativistic kinematic effects.

description: The adaptation of push-pull technology to the drier ecological zones is of critical importance for its sustainability in view of the effects of global climate change. While intensified dissemination of the climate-smart technology would ensure its maximum adoption, knowledge of its potential adoption is necessary before dissemination resources are commitment. Potential adoption of a technology is however based on a wide range of farm, farmer, institutional and socioeconomic characteristics. This study was interested on these determinants of potential adoption of the climate-smart push-pull ex ante. The study adopted the multinomial logit technique to evaluate potential adoption determinants, and the findings were consistent with expectations based on theoretical hypothesis with gender, striga rating, push-pull awareness, input market access and country dummy variables being the significant predictors of the potential adoption. These findings are critical if effective targeting of the dissemination messages is to be accomplished.
