description: We have investigated structure and properties of small metal clusters using all-electron ab initio theoretical methods based on the Hartree-Fock approximation and density functional theory, perturbation theory and compared results of our calculations with the available experimental data and the results of other theoretical works. We have systematically calculated the optimized geometries of neutral and singly charged sodium clusters having up to 20 atoms, their multipole moments (dipole and quadrupole), static polarizabilities, binding energies per atom, ionization potentials and frequencies of normal vibration modes. Our calculations demonstrate the great role of many-electron correlations in the formation of electronic and ionic structure of small metal clusters and form a good basis for further detailed study of their dynamic properties, as well as structure and properties of other atomic cluster systems.

description: We revisited the short period Type II Cepheids (T2Cs), called the BL Herculis (BLHs), in the Galactic Field to derive a homogeneous analysis of their Fourier parameters. Only V-band data were compiled to make sure that it was directly comparable between the known variables of the OGLE-III catalogue and the 59 individual objects classified as short period Type II Cepheids in the General Catalogue of Variable Stars (GCVS) we had in our sample. The derived Fourier parameters were used to make the distinction between different classes of variables. From the 59 stars we found 19 BLHs, 19 fundamental mode Anomalous Cepheids (ACs) (8 of them were already known from the Catalina Sky Survey (CSS)), 1 first overtone AC, 2 were found to be possible peculiar W Virginis (pWVir), 11 classical Cepheids (DCEPs), and 7 stars were not pulsating variables at all. As a result we created a list of bright BLH stars in the Galactic Field, and separated the ACs, as well as other objects that were misclassified. The number of true BLHs decreased in our sample by more than 50%. We gathered the metallicity from spectroscopic measurements published in the literature. While the number of actual measurements is low, it is highly suggestive that ACs are metal poor. The mean metallicity from 8 measurements in 4 stars (UY Eri having 5 different [Fe/H] data points) is -1.12 dex, but if the higher value metallicity outliers of UY Eri are left out the mean metallicity becomes -1.88 dex, regardless if the AC is in the Milky Way itself or in a cluster. On the other hand, BLHs seem to have a Solar-like metallicity of 0 dex averaged from 21 measurements of 10 stars.

description: Countries that export biofuel feedstocks such as grain or sugar and that are also importers of motor fuels will have a natural competitive advantage over other countries in the production of biofuels. Argentina is one of a very few countries that both export potential feedstocks and import gasoline and diesel. This combination means that an Argentine ethanol plant will pay less for feedstock and receive a higher price for ethanol than an ethanol plant located in a country that imports feedstocks and exports motor fuels. Argentina is the world’s second-largest exporter of corn. This export status, when combined with high internal transportation costs, lowers the price of corn in the major production areas of Argentina. In addition, Argentina’s farmers need to plant more corn to create a more sustainable balance between corn and soybeans. In particular, in Argentina’s northern production regions, the large amount of crop residue from increased corn plantings is needed to help build soil quality. Thus there is significant potential for expansion of corn in Argentina, which makes corn an even better feedstock for ethanol. The variable or direct cost of converting a ton of corn into ethanol in Argentina is comparable to conversion costs in the United States, with the exception that natural gas costs more in Argentina. For a plant that does not dry distillers grains, conversion costs would be approximately $40 per ton of corn processed. Drying distillers grains adds about $10 per ton. The domestic price of corn in Argentina not only reflects the cost of transporting corn from the interior to Rosario, but it also reflects the effects of export taxes and the need to obtain government permission to export. Over the period from October 2010 to March 2012, the cost of corn to an ethanol plant in the state of Iowa in the United States averaged $110 more per ton than the local price of corn paid to farmers in Córdoba over the same period, and $140 more per ton than the Salta corn price. Argentina also has a large livestock sector that can readily use distillers grains from corn ethanol plants. Plants that are located close to cattle operations can sell wet distillers grains to these operations thereby saving the cost of drying. Plants that have dryers installed can export distillers grains. Livestock producers in many countries have learned how to use imported distillers grains from US ethanol plants over the last few years, so Argentina would have the ability to export dried distillers grains.

description: The charge and spin of the electrons in solids have been extensively exploited in electronic devices and in the development of spintronics. Another attribute of electrons - their orbital nature - is attracting growing interest for understanding exotic phenomena and in creating the next-generation of quantum devices such as orbital qubits. Here, we report on orbital-flop induced magnetoresistance anisotropy in CeSb. In the low temperature high magnetic-field driven ferromagnetic state, a series of additional minima appear in the angle-dependent magnetoresistance. These minima arise from the anisotropic magnetization originating from orbital-flops and from the enhanced electron scattering from magnetic multidomains formed around the first-order orbital-flop transition. The measured magnetization anisotropy can be accounted for with a phenomenological model involving orbital-flops and a spin-valve-like structure is used to demonstrate the viable utilization of orbital-flop phenomenon. Our results showcase a contribution of orbital behavior in the emergence of intriguing phenomena.
title: How Variation in Activity Time and Duration at Water Sources Affects Feral Horse Vulnerability to Cougar Predation in Southern Nevada
Creators: name: Davies, Katelyn
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2024

description: Feral horses have become prominent in the Intermountain West. Approximately 43,000 horses are found in Nevada alone. With increasing numbers, they have become a large portion of ungulate biomass. Thus, it is important to understand their behavior, as they become integrated into western wildlife communities. However, little research has been conducted on the ecology of feral horses, and their relationships with native ungulates, carnivores, and local resources such as water.
To address these concerns, I outlined three objectives: (1) determine if horses changed their water visitation activity times in relation to temperature. As a primarily diurnal species, we were interested in discovering if they showed more crepuscular behavior during bouts of hotter temperatures to combat heat stress and water requirements. (2) to determine if horse water behavior varied seasonally and (3) compared the timing and frequency of horses and deer visitation to water sources across seasons. Horses are water dependent, meaning they need water daily to maintain good fitness. During times of lactation, mares require upwards of 21 gallons per day.
We observed water visitations of mule deer and feral horses to two permanent springs in two mountain ranges in Southwestern Nevada. From 2021-2023 we set up cameras at two springs to monitor the frequency and timeline of horse and wildlife visits to perennial sources of water. Our results indicated predictable behavior, especially during the hotter months of the year. Horses visited water sources more frequently during the summer months (April - October) as compared to the winter months (November - March). During summer, horses primarily visited water during diurnal and crepuscular hours. However, during winter, horses visited during nocturnal hours more frequently. Similarly, mule deer detections showed more visitation during diurnal hours in winter. To contrast, during summer, mule deer visited water nocturnally in addition to diurnal hours.
Future resource is needed to see how this behavior affects their vulnerability to predation as well as how dominant horse presence at water sources affects the behavior of native ungulates, such as mule deer. Future discussions of water dominance are needed to determine if the feral horse populations limit access to water of the other wildlife in southern Nevada, including elk and deer.

description: This paper pioneers the use of neural networks to provide a fast and automatic way to classify lightcurves in massive photometric datasets. As an example, we provide a working neural network that can distinguish microlensing lightcurves from other forms of variability, such as eruptive, pulsating, cataclysmic and eclipsing variable stars. The network has five input neurons, a hidden layer of five neurons and one output neuron. The five input variables for the network are extracted by spectral analysis from the lightcurve datapoints and are optimised for the identification of a single, symmetric, microlensing bump. The output of the network is the posterior probability of microlensing. The committee of neural networks successfully passes tests on noisy data taken by the MACHO collaboration. When used to process 5000 lightcurves on a typical tile towards the bulge, the network cleanly identifies the single microlensing event. When fed with a sub-sample of 36 lightcurves identified by the MACHO collaboration as microlensing, the network corroborates this verdict in the case of 27 events, but classifies the remaining 9 events as other forms of variability. For some of these discrepant events, it looks as though there are secondary bumps or the bump is noisy or not properly contained. Neural networks naturally allow for the possibility of novelty detection -- that is, new or unexpected phenomena which we may want to follow up. The advantages of neural networks for microlensing rate calculations, as well as the future developments of massive variability surveys, are both briefly discussed.

description: This paper discusses the role of medium towns as crucial anchors in achieving the policy goal of Territorial Cohesion. It highlights the need to counterbalance market trends to favour the continuous channelling of investment and people into larger metropolitan areas by way of proactive measures focused on attracting investment into medium towns, and as an alternative to dispersing public and private investment in lagging territories. Iberian and Nordic cases are examined in order to illustrate the possibilities and challenges of using ‘Territorial Cohesion Cities’ as development hubs in lagging regions, in order to achieve Territorial Cohesion at a national level.

The obtained branching ratios $B(B\toϕK^*)\sim 15 \times 10^{-6}$ are larger than $\sim 9\times 10^{-6}$ from QCD factorization. The comparison of the predicted magnitudes and phases of the different helicity amplitudes, and branching ratios with experimental data can test the power counting rules, the evaluation of annihilation contributions, and the mechanism of dynamical penguin enhancement in perturbative QCD, respectively.

description: A common mechanism to form primordial black holes in the early universe is by enhancing at small-scales the scalar perturbations generated during inflation. If these fluctuations have a large enough amplitude, they may collapse into primordial black holes upon horizon re-entry. Such primordial black holes may comprise the totality of the dark matter. We offer some considerations about the formation and clustering of primordial black holes when the scalar perturbations are characterised by a broad spectrum. Using the excursion set method, as well as the supreme statistics, we show that the cloud-in-cloud phenomenon, for which small mass primordial black holes may be absorbed by bigger mass ones, is basically absent. This is due to the fact that the formation of a primordial black hole is an extremely rare event. We also show that, from the point of view of mass distribution, broad and narrow spectra give similar results in the sense that the mass distribution is tilted towards a single mass. Furthermore, we argue that primordial black holes from broad spectra are not clustered at formation, their distribution is dominantly Poissonian.

description: Signal degradation is ubiquitous and computational restoration of degraded signal has been investigated for many years. Recently, it is reported that the capability of signal restoration is fundamentally limited by the perception-distortion tradeoff, i.e. the distortion and the perceptual difference between the restored signal and the ideal `original' signal cannot be made both minimal simultaneously. Distortion corresponds to signal fidelity and perceptual difference corresponds to perceptual naturalness, both of which are important metrics in practice. Besides, there is another dimension worthy of consideration, namely the semantic quality or the utility for recognition purpose, of the restored signal. In this paper, we extend the previous perception-distortion tradeoff to the case of classification-distortion-perception (CDP) tradeoff, where we introduced the classification error rate of the restored signal in addition to distortion and perceptual difference. Two versions of the CDP tradeoff are considered, one using a predefined classifier and the other dealing with the optimal classifier for the restored signal. For both versions, we can rigorously prove the existence of the CDP tradeoff, i.e. the distortion, perceptual difference, and classification error rate cannot be made all minimal simultaneously. Our findings can be useful especially for computer vision researches where some low-level vision tasks (signal restoration) serve for high-level vision tasks (visual understanding).

description: Total factor productivity (TFP) in Spain over the period 1989–2010 has followed a decreasing trend. This paper explores to what degree the transport infrastructure investments financed with European Union Structural Funds (ERDF) and Cohesion Funds (CF) including the compulsory national cofunding (EUINFP) prevented TFP over this period from falling further. It estimates an augmented Mankiw–Romer–Weil model for the 17 Spanish regions over the period 1989–2010 and finds positive marginal contributions on the TFP growth rate for EUINFP, research and development, and the interdependencies between EUINFP and private capital. These factors partially offset the dismal TFP performance of Spain over this period.

description: This study evaluates the environmental efficiency of seven recently constructed ethanol plants in the North Central region of the U.S., using nonparametric data envelopment analysis (DEA). Environmental efficiency is measured and decomposed into its technical and allocative sources. Results show that, on average, plants in our sample may be able to reduce GHG emissions by a maximum of 6% or by 3,116 tons per quarter. The economic (shadow) cost of reducing greenhouse gas emissions reveals that, at current activity levels, plants may have room for simultaneous improvement of environmental efficiency and economic profitability.

description: Finite size effects come into play during the late stages of neutron star binary inspiral, with the tidal deformability of the supranuclear density matter leaving an imprint on the gravitational-wave signal. As demonstrated in the case of GW170817, this leads to a constraint on the neutron star radius (and hence the equation of state). A deeper understanding of the tidal response requires an analysis of both the state and composition of matter. While these aspects may not have dramatic impact, they could lead to systematic effects that need to be kept in mind as the observational data become more precise. As a step in this direction we explore the role of the composition of matter, which is likely to remain "frozen" during the late stages of binary inspiral. We provide the first in-depth analysis of the problem, including estimates of how composition impacts on the effective tidal deformability. The results provide improved insight into how aspects of physics that tend to be "ignored" impact on binary neutron star gravitational-wave signals.

Improved Optical Flow for Gesture-based Human-robot Interaction

description: Gesture interaction is a natural way of communicating with a robot as an alternative to speech. Gesture recognition methods leverage optical flow in order to understand human motion. However, while accurate optical flow estimation (i.e., traditional) methods are costly in terms of runtime, fast estimation (i.e., deep learning) methods' accuracy can be improved. In this paper, we present a pipeline for gesture-based human-robot interaction that uses a novel optical flow estimation method in order to achieve an improved speed-accuracy trade-off. Our optical flow estimation method introduces four improvements to previous deep learning-based methods: strong feature extractors, attention to contours, midway features, and a combination of these three. This results in a better understanding of motion, and a finer representation of silhouettes. In order to evaluate our pipeline, we generated our own dataset, MIBURI, which contains gestures to command a house service robot. In our experiments, we show how our method improves not only optical flow estimation, but also gesture recognition, offering a speed-accuracy trade-off more realistic for practical robot applications.

description: The paper investigates the existence of a natural resource curse, from a within-country perspective. This perspective tends to be overlooked in the existing literature, which provides extensive country-level analyses of the issue. In particular, the paper examines the relationship between agriculture and mining and quarrying resources endowments and regional economic growth, over the period 2007–16, for 260 European Union regions. The results, which are robust to controlling for spatial dependence, show there is what can be called a natural resources curse, particularly related to agriculture. Importantly, they show that this curse is not related to the economic crisis and, in fact, has held back regional economic recovery.

description: The fluctuation properties of the human electroencephalogram (EEG) time series are studied using detrended fluctuation analysis. For all 128 channels in each of 18 subjects studied, it is found that the standard deviation of the fluctuations exhibits scaling behaviors in two regions. Topographical plots of the scaling exponents reveal the spatial structure of the nonlinear electrical activities recorded on the scalp. Moment analyses are performed to extract the gross features of all the scaling exponents. The correlation between the two scaling exponents in each channel is also examined. It is found that two indices can characterize the overall properties of the fluctuation behaviors of the brain dynamics for every subject and that they vary widely across the subjects.

description: Additional file 2: Figure S2. Roseoflavin (RoF) sensitivity of bacterial strains used in this study. LB agar plates were supplemented with different amounts of roseoflavin (0–200 µM) and inoculated with cells (about 50.000 cells each spot) of Bacillus subtilis 168 (A), Bacillus subtilis riboflavin overproducing strain ROP (B) and Corynebacterium glutamicum MB001DE3 (C) and incubated aerobically for 50 h at 30 °C. B. subtilis ROP is able to grow in the presence of 200 µM roseoflavin whereas B. subtilis 168 does not show growth. C. glutamicum MB001DE3 shows strongly reduced growth (see frames). Please note, the yellowish halos in sectors B are a result of riboflavin secretion by ROP.

description: We introduce a novel and simple modulation technique to tailor optical beams with a customized amount of orbital angular momentum (OAM). The technique is based on the modulation of the angular spectrum of a seed beam, which allows us to specify in an independent manner the value of OAM and the shape of the resulting beam transverse intensity. We experimentally demonstrate our method by arbitrarily shaping the radial and angular intensity distributions of Bessel and Laguerre-Gauss beams, while their OAM value remains constant. Our experimental results agree with the numerical and theoretical predictions.
