description: Irrigated agriculture will play a crucial role to meet future food demand, but a sustainable water resource management in agriculture is crucial as well. Therefore, the European Water Framework Directive promotes several measures, e.g., the adoption of adequate water pricing mechanisms or the promotion of water-saving irrigation techniques. Since production conditions such as weather and climate development are uncertain, farmers might be reluctant to invest in a water-saving but capital intensive irrigation system. We apply a stochastic dynamic programming approach to analyze a farmer’s optimal investment strategy for either a water–saving drip irrigation system or sprinkler irrigation system under weather uncertainty and assess the probability of adopting either irrigation system until the year 2040. We design two policy scenarios: (i) irrigation water pricing and (ii) equipment subsidies for drip irrigation, and investigate how they affect the farmer’s optimal investment strategy. Our case study analysis is performed for the region Marchfeld, a typical semi-arid agricultural production region in Austria. We use data from the bio-physical process simulation model EPIC (Environmental Policy Integrated Climate) which accounts for site and management related characteristics as well as weather parameters from a statistical climate change model. We find that investment in drip irrigation is unlikely unless subsidies for equipment cost are granted. Even water prices do not increase the probability to adopt a drip irrigation system, but rather decrease the probability to invest into either irrigation system.

description: Symmetry breaking by perturbations in the AdS/CFT correspondence is discussed. Perturbations of vector fields to the AdS_3 x S^3 solution of the six-dimensional N=(4,4) supergravity are considered. These perturbations are identified as descendents of chiral primary operators of a two-dimensional N=(4,4) CFT with conformal weight (2,2) or (1,1). We examine unbroken symmetries by the perturbations in the CFT side as well as in the supergravity side and find the same result: the N=(4,2) or N=(2,4) Poincare supersymmetry for the (2,2) perturbation and the N=(0,4) or N=(4,0) superconformal symmetry for the (1,1) perturbation.

description: Introduction: Diarrhea among children under two years old remains a big challenge for the Indonesian government due to its association with fatal cases. Diarrhea can be caused by factors such as socio-demographics, the environment, and behavioral childcare practices. This study aimed to assess the associated factors of diarrheal diseases among children under two years old in Indonesia. Methods: Cross-sectional data was obtained from the 2017 Indonesia Demographic and Health Survey (IDHS) used for the study. A total of 5858 children, aged 0–23 months and who lived with their mothers, were selected for this study. Binary logistic regression was utilized to examine the determinants of diarrhea. Results: The prevalence of diarrhea among Indonesian children under two years old was 17.16%. The mother’s age [AOR = 1.63; 95% CI = 1.28–2.08], the education of the mother [AOR = 1.80; 95% CI = 1.35–2.40], the type of toilet [AOR = 1.40; 95% CI = 1.14–1.72], non-exclusively breastfeeding [AOR = 3.30; 95% CI = 2.32–4.69], and feeding from a bottle [AOR = 1.21; 95% CI = 1.02–1.45] were all signiﬁcantly associated with the occurrence of diarrhea. Conclusions: socio-demographic, environmental, behavioral and childcare practice characteristics are associated with diarrhea among children under two years old in Indonesia. This study highlighted the need for environmental improvement and healthy behavior to reduce the number of diarrhea cases. Increasing the awareness of the mother through counseling and health promotion about the essential beneﬁt of breastfeeding is inevitable. Hygiene practices should be promoted at the household level for those who care for young children.
Outsourcing, Regional Trade and Specialization: An Application to in the German Pig Sector

description: The global trend of industrializing agriculture increasingly transforms farms and firms into specialized component suppliers within a multi-stage food processing chain, which creates intraindustry trade between- and within geographical regions. This can be analyzed within the framework of a hypothetical multiregional food-processing firm that benefits from outsourcing various ‘tasks’ to other sub-contracting regions, in order to utilize lower production cost there. This is modeled as a multi-output cost minimization problem of the processing firm, and it is argued that with respect to agriculture, the outsourcing opportunities for the firm are determined by economies of diversification. Trade is implicitly reflected as the movement of intermediate factors towards the processing firm, and firm-level specialization of the sub-contractors is an observable outcome. This framework is applied to pig production in 1150 municipalities in southern Germany. The estimated multi-output production frontier is decomposed according to a primal measure of diversification economies. Results show that pig farms located closer to slaughterhouses tend to specialize more in one of the tasks ‘piglet production’, ‘rearing’ or ‘fattening’, while farms in regions distant from slaughterhouses tend to in-source all of these tasks. Future research may extend the framework towards comparative static analyses of relevant policies.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: Global child feeding practices remain suboptimal. In this study, we assess the determinants of age-inappropriate breastfeeding, dietary diversity, and consumption of 3+ types of animal source foods (ASFs) using 11,687 observations from combined data from the Indonesian Demographic Health Survey of 2012 and 2017. We used linear and logistic regression after adjusting for the complex sampling design. Child's age and quality of antenatal care (ANC) were associated with all outcomes. Socio-economic status and labour force participation were positively associated with higher dietary diversity score, ASF consumption, and age-inappropriate breastfeeding. More ANC visits and having consultation at ANC were associated with more dietary diversity. Higher women's knowledge level was associated with more dietary diversity and consuming more ASF. Compared with western Indonesia, more children in eastern Indonesia were age-inappropriately breastfed and had lower dietary diversity. The Indonesian government needs to develop programmes to improve child feeding particularly in eastern Indonesia, focusing on improving dietary diversity and ASF consumption in poorer households and on prolonging breastfeeding in richer households. Women's labour force participation should be encouraged, but programmes for working mothers are also needed to support continued breastfeeding and to express breast milk. ANC and postnatal programmes need improved consultation sessions for child feeding.

description: While the single- output Constant Difference of Elasticities (CDE) cost function has been applied several times, its profit counterpart called “the Constant Difference of Elasticities of Transformation” (CDET) profit frontier has not yet been applied econometrically. It is an indirect, implicit, non-homothetic and non-separable frontier that may be viewed as more flexible than the commonly used CES and Cobb-Douglas specifications, while demanding less parameters to be estimated than fully flexible functional forms commonly do. We therefore introduce the CDET profit function and illustrate its potential usefulness as a parsimonious econometric model of agricultural production in Switzerland. Results indicate plausible elasticities and a satisfactory fit to the data; however, successful estimation requires that certain theoretical characteristics of the CDET are exactly obeyed.

description: A standard model of labour adjustment in times of economic transition assumes a constant impact of variables like sectoral income differences, unemployment or the relative size of the agricultural sector. This paper shows for a panel of 29 European and Asian transition countries that the standard model fails to take the heterogeneity of determinants of sectoral labour adjustment properly into account. A random coefficients model reveals quite heterogeneous influences of the intersectoral income ratio, the relative size of agricultural employment, the unemployment rate, and the general level of economic development on a measure of sectoral labour adjustment across transition countries. Moreover, for selected determinants the estimated coefficients show opposing signs.
Collective states in highly symmetric atomic configurations, and single-photon traps

description: Abbreviated Abstract: We study correlated states in a circular and linear-chain configuration of identical two-level atoms containing the energy of a single quasi-resonant photon in the form of a collective excitation, where the collective behaviour is mediated by exchange of transverse photons between the atoms. For a circular configuration of atoms the effective Hamiltonian on the radiationless subspace of the system can be diagonalized analytically. In this case, the radiationless energy eigenstates carry a $\mathbb{Z}_N$ quantum number $p=0,1, ..., N$ which is analogous to the angular momentum quantum number $l= 0, 1, ...$, carried by particles propagating in a central potential, such as a hydrogen-like system. Just as the hydrogen s-states are the only electronic wave functions which can occupy the central region of the Coulomb potential, the quasi-particle corresponding to a collective excitation of the circular atomic sample can occupy the central atom only for vanishing $\mathbb{Z}_N$ quantum number $p$. For large numbers of atoms in a maximally subradiant state, a critical interatomic distance of $λ/2$ emerges both in the linear-chain and the circular configuration of atoms. The spontaneous decay rate of the linear configuration exhibits a jump-like "critical" behaviour for next-neighbour distances close to a half-wavelength. Furthermore, both the linear-chain and the circular configuration exhibit exponential photon trapping once the next-neighbour distance becomes less than a half-wavelength, with the suppression of spontaneous decay being particularly pronounced in the circular system. In this way, circular configurations containing sufficiently many atoms may be natural candidates for {\it single-photon traps}.

Asheville, North Carolina: U.S. Department of Agriculture, Forest Service, Southern Research Station. pp. 177-184.

Climate change is a priority area for Evaluation Monitoring projects funded by the Forest Health Monitoring (FHM) national program of the Forest Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture. Attendees at the 2008 FHM Working Group meeting approved a resolution calling for a baseline assessment across North American tree species of the risk of genetic degradation, local extirpation, or species-wide extinction associated with climate change. Called Known as Forecasts of Climate-Associated Shifts in Tree Species (ForeCASTS), this assessment was conducted across all forest types and ownerships across the North American continent. The central focus of the assessment has been the statistical modeling of environmental niche envelopes that forecast species’ geographic ranges under climate change, using the Multivariate Spatio-Temporal Clustering (MSTC) technique developed by Hargrove and Hoffman (2005). The resulting maps predict the future location and quality of habitat for tree species and, along with consideration of species’ biological attributes, will allow for predictions of the degree to which species are likely to be able to move to areas with the appropriate environmental conditions over time and avoid the loss of extensive genetic variation.

As a corollary we obtain that retracts of Cantor or Tikhonov cubes belong to the above class.

description: We propose a modification of standard linear electrodynamics in four dimensions, where effective non-trivial interactions of the electromagnetic field with itself and with matter fields induce Lorentz violating Chern-Simons terms. This yields two consequences: it provides a more realistic and general scenario for the breakdown of Lorentz symmetry in electromagnetism and it may explain the effective behavior of the electromagnetic field in certain planar phenomena (for instance, Hall effect). A number of proposals for non-linear electrodynamics is discussed along the paper. Important physical implications of the breaking of Lorentz symmetry, such as optical birefringence and the possibility of having conductance in the vacuum are commented on.

description: The main objective of this thesis consists of the design of a recommender system, representing a novel method concerning the computational recommendation of early-stage enterprises to investors. In order to quantify decision rules the recommender system is based on, investors requirements and behaviours need to be analysed utilizing qualitativeand quantitative research. This research is done in a previous study of co-author Christian Ohrfandl. Furthermore, demonstrating the behaviour of the proposed recommendation algorithms is a major task of this thesis. For this reason, a prototype of the recommender system is being crafted in software. The chapter Recommender Systems for Early-Stage Enterprise Investment addresses the conceptualization of a recommendation system in the domain of early-stage enterprise investment based on the findings of the specialization topic Investment Decision-making & Venture Valuation by the co-author Christian Ohrfandl. The resulting recommender system includes various types of recommenders in a parallelized approach, that is, Collaborative Filtering, content-based-, knowledge-based-, socialand hybrid recommendation algorithms. Additionally, the conceptual model of this recommender system has been implemented as a highly scalable, plugin-based software prototype that may be easily extended by different recommendation algorithms in future work. The most important opportunity for future research is stated as qualitativeor quantitative evaluations of recommendation quality in terms of user satisfaction. These evaluations may answer the question, whether the implemented design decisions improve a users utility when using the system. In fact, it is precisely this very evaluation that is being researched in the course of the specialization topic chapter Evaluation.

description: We derive proper-time Lyapunov exponent $(λ_{p})$ and coordinate-time Lyapunov exponent $(λ_{c})$ for a regular Hayward class of black hole. The proper-time corresponds to $τ$ and the coordinate time corresponds to $t$. Where $t$ is measured by the asymptotic observers both for for Hayward black hole and for special case of Schwarzschild black hole. We compute their ratio as $\frac{λ_{p}}{λ_{c}} = \frac{(r_σ^{3} + 2 l^{2} m )}{\sqrt{(r_σ^{2} + 2 l^{2} m )^{3}- 3 m r_σ^{5}}}$ for time-like geodesics. In the limit of $l=0$ that means for Schwarzschild black hole this ratio reduces to $\frac{λ_{p}}{λ_{c}} = \sqrt{\frac{r_σ}{(r_σ-3 m)}}$. Using Lyponuov exponent, we investigate the stability and instability of equatorial circular geodesics. By evaluating the Lyapunov exponent, which is the inverse of the instability time-scale, we show that, in the eikonal limit, the real and imaginary parts of quasi-normal modes~(QNMs) is specified by the frequency and instability time scale of the null circular geodesics. Furthermore, we discuss the unstable photon sphere and radius of shadow for this class of black hole.

description: Background :Contraceptives in family planning are used to control the timings between pregnancies. Although the number of those using family planning has increased, determinants of contraceptive use among married women in Indonesia remain insufficient. This research aimed to identify the factors associated with contraceptive use among married women in Indonesia. This study employed data from the Indonesian Demographic and Methods: Health Survey 2017. We selected 35,621 married women aged 15–49 years. Then, the determinants of contraceptive use among married women in Indonesia were examined by binary logistic regression. Women’s age (Adjusted Odds Ratio (AOR)=0.529; 95%Results: CI=0.470–0.597), the number of living children (AOR=44.024; 95% CI=33.193–58.390), education level (adjusted odds ratio=2.800; 95% CI=2.181–3.594), wealth index (AOR=1.104; 95% CI=0.978–1.246), frequency of watching television (AOR=1.555; 95% CI=1.321–1.829), and frequency of using the Internet (AOR=0.856; 95% CI=0.794–0.924) were significantly associated with contraceptive use among married women. This study highlights the determinants of contraceptive useConclusions: among married women in Indonesia. Women’s age, the number of living children, education level, wealth index, and access to information may influence contraceptive use among these women. This study emphasizes that health education and promotion on the importance of using contraception should be initiated in innovative ways.

description: O objetivo do artigo foi de buscar resposta sobre a existência de convergência de renda agropecuária para os Estados brasileiros no período entre 1991 e 2005, utilizou-se os testes de β-convergência e σ-convergência. Os resultados sugerem que existe uma dependência entre taxa de crescimento da renda agropecuária per capita e seu valor inicial, de forma que, em geral, as economias menos desenvolvidas no setor agropecuário crescem mais que os mais desenvolvidos. Desta forma, o crescimento da renda agropecuária per capita teria atuado positivamente no sentido de reduzir as disparidades entre os Estados, por influência de fatores indutores específicos ou políticas direcionadas para esse comportamento de convergência.---------------------------The purpose of the article was to seek answers about the existence of convergence of agricultural income for the Brazilian states, the period between 1991 and 2205, it was used for testing β- convergence and σ-convergence. The results suggest that there is a dependency between growth- rate of per capita agricultural income and its initial value, so that in general the less developed economies in the agricultural sector grow more than the most developed. Thus, the growth of per capita agricultural income would have acted positively to reduce disparities between states, the influence of factors specific inducers or policies directed to this behavior of convergence.

description: We describe in detail how the different components of a multi-phase transport (AMPT) model, that uses the Heavy Ion Jet Interaction Generator (HIJING) for generating the initial conditions, Zhang's Parton Cascade (ZPC) for modeling partonic scatterings, the Lund string fragmentation model or a quark coalescence model for hadronization, and A Relativistic Transport (ART) model for treating hadronic scatterings, are improved and combined to give a coherent description of the dynamics of relativistic heavy ion collisions. We also explain the way parameters in the model are determined, and discuss the sensitivity of predicted results to physical input in the model. Comparisons of these results to experimental data, mainly from heavy ion collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC), are then made in order to extract information on the properties of the hot dense matter formed in these collisions.

description: We consider a hydrodynamic approach in which a quantum system of interacting quarks and gluons is approximated classically by representing it as a perfect fluid having intrinsic degrees of freedom. Every particle of such fluid is endowed with spin and non-Abelian color charge. The variational theory of such perfect spin fluid with color charge is constructed, the spin-polarization chromomagnetic effects in an external Yang-Mills field and in Riemann-Cartan space with curvature and torsion being taken into account.

description: During compilation from Java source code to bytecode, some information is irreversibly lost. In other words, compilation and decompilation of Java code is not symmetric. Consequently, decompilation, which aims at producing source code from bytecode, relies on strategies to reconstruct the information that has been lost. Different Java decompilers use distinct strategies to achieve proper decompilation. In this work, we hypothesize that the diverse ways in which bytecode can be decompiled has a direct impact on the quality of the source code produced by decompilers. In this paper, we assess the strategies of eight Java decompilers with respect to three quality indicators: syntactic correctness, syntactic distortion and semantic equivalence modulo inputs. Our results show that no single modern decompiler is able to correctly handle the variety of bytecode structures coming from real-world programs. The highest ranking decompiler in this study produces syntactically correct, and semantically equivalent code output for 84%, respectively 78%, of the classes in our dataset. Our results demonstrate that each decompiler correctly handles a different set of bytecode classes. We propose a new decompiler called Arlecchino that leverages the diversity of existing decompilers. To do so, we merge partial decompilation into a new one based on compilation errors. Arlecchino handles 37.6% of bytecode classes that were previously handled by no decompiler. We publish the sources of this new bytecode decompiler.

Metal ion distribution in blood plasma : towards metallo-proteomics
Creators: name: Levesque, Chantal A.

description: Considering the immense involvement of metal ions in metabolism, protein structure, electron transfer, and their relation to health and disease, deciphering the mechanisms by which metals are stored, transported, sensed and incorporated within the human biosystem is imperative to further understand metal homeostasis and metal-related diseases. In this "omics" age, the emerging field of metallomics sets out to do just that. The metallome of a tissue, fluid, or cell includes aquated trace elements and their complexes with endogenous and induced biomolecules, including organic acids, sugars, proteins, and oligonucleotides. Metallomic studies seek to determine the distribution of elements in a sample, the coordination environments of that element, and the concentrations of each metalcontaining species present. The technology involved combines protemics methods with elemental analysis techniques. The most promising approach to studying the blood plasma metallome involves coupling size-exclusion chromatography (SEC) to inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS). This platform technology produces a two-dimensional metal distribution plot of the plasma proteome. The first phase separates the plasma's components based on size, and the resulting fractions are analyzed for metal content in the second phase. Combining two well-characterized and widely used analytical techniques, SEC and ICP-MS, effectively maps out where and how the transition elements distribute themselves in plasma. However, while few plasma metallomic studies have been reported to date, the involvement of the protein separation step (SEC) and its impact on the sample integrity prior to metal analysis has not been investigated, bringing into question the potential for processing artifacts.

description: In recent years reducing the amount of waste generated by households has become an important policy issue in industrialised economies. It is no longer acceptable to discard waste without concern for environmental and natural resource issues. In an effort to reduce household waste various policy instruments such as kerbside charges, deposit‐refund schemes, integrated sales tax exemptions and virgin material taxes, have been proposed and/or implemented. This article reviews the economics literature that has addressed household waste management. It is argued that a comprehensive modelling framework is necessary if the complex policy environment is to be accurately described.

description: Short wavelength Free-Electron Lasers (FELs) are the newest light sources available to scientists to probe a wide range of phenomena, with chemical, physical and biological applications, using soft and hard X-rays. These sources include the currently most powerful light sources in the world (hard X-ray sources) and are characterised by extremely high powers and high transverse coherence, but the first FELs had reduced longitudinal coherence. Now it is possible to achieve good longitudinal coherence (narrow bandwidth in the frequency domain) and here we discuss and illustrate a range of experiments utilising this property, and their underlying physics. The primary applications are those which require high resolution (for example resonant experiments), or temporal coherence (for example coherent control experiments). The currently available light sources extend the vast range of laboratory laser techniques to short wavelengths.
