description: Cultivar-specific adoption information is imperative for agricultural research organizations to make strategic research plans for crop-genetic development. However, such data are often unavailable in developing countries or obsolete and unreliable even when they exist. A budget-friendly and reliable method of tracking and monitoring varietal adoptions is highly desired. In this paper, we employ expert elicitation (EE) as a method to obtain estimates of modern variety (MV) adoption of rice in Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Nepal, and Sri Lanka. EE is conducted by comparing information from EE assessment and household surveys. We found that organized panels of agricultural experts can provide reliable estimates of the area planted to MVs. In addition, cultivar-specific adoption estimates are reliable for dominant varieties. To some extent, EE estimates are more precise when estimates are calculated by aggregating disaggregate-level elicitations than by directly obtaining aggregate-level elicitations. Furthermore, the household surveys reveal that it takes approximately a decade for a new variety to be adopted by a significant number of farmers.

Single-Carrier Index Modulation for IoT Uplink

description: For the Internet of Things (IoT), there might be a large number of devices to be connected to the Internet through wireless technologies. In general, IoT devices would have various constraints due to limited processing capability, memory, energy source, and so on, and it is desirable to employ efficient wireless transmission schemes, especially for uplink transmissions. For example, orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) with index modulation (IM) or OFDM-IM can be considered for IoT devices due to its energy efficiency. In this paper, we study a different IM scheme for a single-carrier (SC) system, which is referred to as SCIM. While SCIM is similar to OFDM-IM in terms of energy efficiency, SCIM may be better suited for IoT uplink because it has a low peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) and does not require inverse fast Fourier transform (FFT) at devices compared to OFDM-IM. We also consider precoding for SCIM and generalize it to multiple access channel so that multiple IoT devices can share the same radio resource block. To detect precoded SCIM signals, low-complexity detectors are derived. For a better performance, based on variational inference that is widely used in machine learning, we consider a detector that provides an approximate solution to an optimal detection.

description: The prediction of Adaptive Optics (AO)-corrected PSFs offers considerable potential, with implications ranging from enhanced observational planning to the post-processing of astronomical data. The intricate nature of AO-corrected PSFs necessitated the development of advanced analytical models capable of efficiently capturing their intricate morphology. In this work, we utilize the TIPTOP PSF model to predict on-axis PSFs produced by the SPHERE instrument of ESO\'s UT3. TIPTOP accepts integrated (reduced) telemetry as input. In theory, the physics-based analytical nature of TIPTOP should result in precise PSF predictions when using reduced telemetry as inputs to the PSF model. However, our research underscores a divergence from this expectation. By utilizing real on-sky datasets recorded on SPHERE, we demonstrate that the calibration of these analytical models is essential for improved prediction accuracy. This work introduces an approach to calibrating PSF models by conjoining them with a feed-forward Neural Network (NN). Furthermore, we present two methodologies to approach its training. Our findings reveal that the calibrated PSF model can achieve a prediction error of 13.6% on real on-sky datasets, while on simulated data, PSF prediction error can be further reduced to only 1.7%. Without calibration, the direct application of the PSF model results in errors of 34.6% for on-sky data and 14.8% for synthetic datasets.

description: We present the results of spectrophotometry and V,R,I, Halpha CCD photometry of the blue compact dwarf (BCD) galaxy SBS 0940+544. Broad-band images taken with the 2.1m KPNO and 1.23m Calar Alto telescopes reveal a compact high-surface-brightness H II region with ongoing star formation, located at the northwestern tip of the elongated low surface brightness (LSB) main body of the BCD. High signal-to-noise 4.5m Multiple Mirror Telescope (MMT) and 10m Keck II telescope long-slit spectroscopy of SBS 0940+544 is used to derive element abundances of the ionized gas in the brightest H II region and to study the stellar population in the host galaxy. The oxygen abundance in the brightest region with strong emission lines is 12+log(O/H) = 7.46-7.50, or 1/29-1/26 solar, in agreement with earlier determinations and among the lowest for BCDs. Hbeta and Halpha emission lines and Hdelta and Hgamma absorption lines are detected in a large part of the main body. Three methods are used to put constraints on the age of the stellar population at different positions along the major axis. They are based on (a) the equivalent widths of the emission lines, (b) the equivalent widths of the absorption lines and (c) the spectral energy distributions (SED). Several scenarios of star formation have been considered. The observed properties in the main body can be reproduced by a continuous star formation process which started not earlier than 100 Myr ago, if a small extinction is assumed. However, the observations can be reproduced equally well by a stellar population forming continuously since 10 Gyr ago, if the star formation rate has increased during the last 100 Myr in the main body of SBS 0940+544 by at least a factor of five. In summary, we find no compelling evidence which favors either a young or an old age of SBS 0940+544.

description: This paper provides a review of on-farm studies conducted to explore the viability of giant freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii, locally known as ulang), culture in six regions in the Philippines. We adopted a participatory action learning approach aimed at improving pond productivity through engagement of 17 small-scale fish-farmer cooperators to adopt different ulang culture systems—ulang monoculture, ulang-rice polyculture, and ulang-tilapia polyculture. This paper focuses on comparing the production and profitability of ulang monoculture and ulang-tilapia polyculture. The cooperators were guided to follow proper protocols in pond preparation, feeding, and water management. Results showed an average survival rate of 65 percent for ulang monoculture; and 59 percent and 77 percent survival rates for ulang and tilapia in polyculture system, respectively. The major problems encountered across regions were unavailability of post-larvae; distance of post-larvae source; water availability; presence of predators; and inconsistent implementation of technical interventions by the cooperators. This paper also presents research and policy recommendations toward sustainable development of freshwater prawn culture which include establishment of a network of hatcheries and broodstock development; technology promotion and extension services; and improving value chains and market strategy.

description: The article considers the main types of abrasive wear of agricultural machinery parts. The main methods of increasing wear resistance, such as ironizing and applying composites based on it, are justified. Ferruginous coating has high technical and economic indicators, due to the low cost of raw materials and high productivity of the process of obtaining high-quality coatings, the ability to apply coatings simultaneously on several parts, can be used not only for new parts, but also for restored parts. The change in the fatigue strength of coatings obtained from various electrolytes is quite well correlated with their strength properties. High internal stresses of iron, which cause the appearance of rare deep cracks with minor additional effects on the sediment, are the main reason for a sharp decrease in the fatigue strength of iron-reinforced samples. A radical means of reducing the risk of destruction of samples under dynamic loads, in this area, is the creation of artificial microporosity, for example, the introduction of dispersed solid particles into electrolytic iron. The introduction of such particles in sufficient quantities allows almost 2 times to increase the fatigue strength of iron-reinforced samples and almost completely remove the danger of their accelerated destruction due to the development of ready-made foci of destruction.

description: Several studies have shown that labor outmigration is one of the livelihood strategies of poor farming households. However, no studies have shown its effect on rice crop production including a gender dimension on technical efficiency in rice farming. This paper attempts to improve the understanding of the relationship between male and female labor migration and farm technical efficiency in selected rice-based farming villages in the Philippines. Using cross-section data from 670 farm households in the Luzon area in the Philippines, results indicate that the type of migration, experience of the migrant, and frequency of home visits enhance farm technical efficiency; however, sex of the migrant increases inefficiencies. The average technical efficiency is 0.74. This implies that, in the short run, there is scope for increasing rice productivity by about 26 percent by conducting formal and informal trainings among the adult household members and providing them access to technical knowledge on the use of improved rice varieties and associated crop and resource management practices.

description: In a hierarchical Universe, galaxy clusters continue to grow with cosmic time, and thus a large number of them are disturbed by accretion of groups or major collisions. Hydrodynamical numerical simulations show that ram pressure stripping can be enhanced during cluster interactions providing an alternative way of forming jellyfish galaxies. In this work, we built a reliable sample of interacting galaxy clusters using different interaction criteria such as the magnitude gap between the two brightest cluster galaxies (BCG), X-ray center and BCG offset, X-ray morphology, and DS substructure analysis. We use X-ray and optical data to investigate the influence of the collisions between clusters on the galaxies' gas stripping, supplying a statistical analysis of the position of the jellyfishes from the WINGS and GASP surveys with respect to cluster substructures. In our preliminary results, we show notorious cases of jellyfishes near discontinuity regions of the intracluster medium.

description: We report the first detailed investigation of K$_2$MnS$_2$ and K$_2$MnSe$_2$ from the K$_2$MnS$_2$ structure type and their magnetic solid solution K$_2$MnS$_{2-x}$Se$_x$ and find that compounds of this structure type consist of strongly-coupled pseudo-one-dimensional antiferromagnetic chains that collectively represent a frustrated two-dimensional triangular antiferromagnet. Bulk samples of K$_2$MnS$_{2-x}$Se$_x$ with $0 \leq x \leq 2$ are characterized using X-ray diffraction, neutron diffraction, magnetization and heat capacity measurements. An incommensurate cycloid magnetic structure with a magnetic propagation vector $k = [0.58~0~1]$ is observed for all samples in K$_2$MnS$_{2-x}$Se$_x$, and the ordering is robust despite a 12\% increase in cell volume. Geometric frustration of chains results in incommensurability along $a$ and a two-step magnetic transition. The varying geometries accessible in compounds of this structure type are presented as promising avenues to tune frustration.

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.

description: The study estimated the benefit and rate of returns to investment on chili research and development(R&D) in Bangladesh. The Economic Surplus Model with ex-post analysis was used to determine the returns to investment and their distribution between production and consumption. Several discounting techniques were also used to assess the efficiency of chili research. The adoption rate showed an increasing trend over the period. The yield of modern variety, BARI-Chilli-1, developed by the Bangladesh Agricultural Research Institute (BARI) was 72 percent higher than that of the local variety. Society received a net benefit of BDT 813.12 million (USD 10.42 million) from investment in chili R&D. The net present value and present value of research cost were estimated at BDT 289.14 million (USD 3.71 million) and BDT 78.49 million (USD 1.01 million), respectively. The internal rate of return and benefit cost ratio were estimated to be 55 percent and 5.48, respectively. This indicates that investment in chili R&D was profitable. The seed production program for BARI-Chilli-1should be done to increase production by increasing its area of adoption.

description: We study Voiculescu's microstate free entropy for a single non-selfadjoint random variable. The main result is that certain additional constraints on eigenvalues of microstates do not change the free entropy. Our tool is the method of random regularization of Brown measure which was studied recently by Haagerup and the author. As a simple application we present an upper bound for the free entropy of a single non--selfadjoint operator in terms of its Brown measure and the second moment. We furthermore show that this inequality becomes an equality for a class of DT-operators which was introduced recently by Dykema and Haagerup.

description: This paper describes a food value chain driven by Muslim precepts, exploring the influence of religion on social networks aspects and on knowledge transfer. Religions have a growing importance for international business, shaping the value chain. Assimilating religious precepts can contribute to better business network management for actual and intended food producers. A qualitative case study based on interviews, non-participant observation, and document analysis was conducted. The main results are that trust and commitment give a competitive edge to the Brazilian Halal poultry network when serving Muslim markets worldwide. Knowledge transfer is influenced by the religious context, with a small group of companies (Islamic Centers) governing interpretations of the Muslim precepts.

description: Binospec is a high throughput, 370 to 1000 nm, imaging spectrograph that addresses two adjacent 8' by 15' fields of view. Binospec was commissioned in late 2017 at the f/5 focus of the 6.5m MMT and is now available to all MMT observers. Aperture masks cut from stainless steel with a laser cutter are used to define the entrance apertures that range from 15' long slits to hundreds of 2" slitlets. System throughputs, including the MMT's mirrors and the f/5 wide-field corrector peak at ~30%. Three reflection gratings, duplicated for the two beams, provide resolutions ($λ$/$Δλ$) between 1300 and $>$5000 with a 1" wide slit. Two through-the-mask guiders are used for target acquisition, mask alignment, guiding, and precision offsets. A full-time Shack-Hartmann wave front sensor allows continuous adjustment of primary mirror support forces, telescope collimation and focus. Active flexure control maintains spectrograph alignment and focus under varying gravity and thermal conditions.

description: Using the formalism of Hamaker et al. (1996), I derive a method for the polarization calibration of observations made with a single radio telescope. This method is particularly appropriate for observations of pulsars, where the sign and magnitude of the circular polarization are useful for understanding the emission processes at work. I apply the method to observations of PSR J1359-6038 made using the multibeam receiver on the Parkes radio telescope.

Time-dependent $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric quantum mechanics in generic non-Hermitian systems

Year: 2019

description: $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric quantum mechanics has been considered an important theoretical framework for understanding physical phenomena in $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric systems, with a number of $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetry related applications. This line of research was made possible by the introduction of a time-independent metric operator to redefine the inner product of a Hilbert space. To treat the dynamics of generic non-Hermitian systems under equal footing, we advocate in this work the use of a time-dependent metric operator for the inner-product between time-evolving states. This treatment makes it possible to always interpret the dynamics of arbitrary (finite-dimensional) non-Hermitian systems in the framework of time-dependent $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric quantum mechanics, with unitary time evolution, real eigenvalues of an energy observable, and quantum measurement postulate all restored. Our work sheds new lights on generic non-Hermitian systems and spontaneous $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetry breaking in particular. We also illustrate possible applications of our formulation with well-known examples in quantum thermodynamics.

description: Development organizations have used value chain analysis in defining interventions for the honey business in major exporting countries like Brazil. Yet, the impact of interventions has been unclear. This paper aims at evaluating strategies of three honey value chain streams in Brazil, selected for a multiple case study between the years 2007–2011.Using the value chain Structure-Conduct-Performance (SCP) framework, likely successful strategies are identified by comparing stream performances. Next, the outcomes of this comparison are validated through questionnaires with experts. Understanding current stream strategies and local structural conditions, and fostering well-aligned strategies are found to be key for successful donor interventions.

description: We analyze the spectrum of two- and three-pion states of maximal isospin obtained recently for isosymmetric QCD with pion mass $M\approx 200\;$MeV in Ref. [1]. Using the relativistic three-particle quantization condition, we find $\sim 2 σ$ evidence for a nonzero value for the contact part of the three-$π^+$ ($I=3$) scattering amplitude. We also compare our results to leading-order chiral perturbation theory. We find good agreement at threshold, and some tension in the energy dependent part of the three-$π^+$scattering amplitude. We also find that the two-$π^+$ ($I=2$) spectrum is fit well by an $s$-wave phase shift that incorporates the expected Adler zero.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. 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.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: Porta Distant, 1903
 Diagnosis. The genus Porta can be readily identified using the detailed redescription by Slater and Zheng (1985). The discovery of the new species does not make it necessary to complement the generic redescription. The main characters of the genus are the complete suture between abdominal segments 4 and 5; the long, curved humeral spines; the lack of a “neck” (preocular portion of head much longer than postocular portion); and the slender, elongate legs and antennae.

description: A contractor faces a decision whether to bid on becoming the private partner in a public–private partnership in the capital city of a southeastern province in Afghanistan. At stake is an investment in building an open-air slaughter facility and operating costs in return for 75% of generated revenues. The contractor works to develop a budget to estimate the economic viability of the operation. Factors encouraging risk analysis include estimates of daily animal slaughter numbers and the viability of and enforcement of a facility-use requirement to support use estimates. This teaching case is suitable for advanced undergraduate or graduate courses in business strategy examining the challenges faced by small-scale agribusinesses in an emerging economy. It is also appropriate for executive education considering foreign investment or management opportunities.

description: In the recent years, MUSE has been reshaping the way we investigate galaxies in the nearby Universe and at low-intermediate redshift. The collection of a significant amount of datasets and the execution of large programmes and IFU surveys urge us to develop and use fast and reliable programming tools and codes in order to exploit the unique treasure of information we can extract from instruments like MUSE, but also userfriendly analysis tools. I will present a highly customisable and flexible GUI, initially designed for MUSE, for performing (really) fast and reliable full-spectrum template fitting on-the-fly directly on the datacube, without the need of difficult intermediate steps and further coding. As a scientific example, I will present my recent results on the investigation of the metallicity gradient in some galaxy clusters by making use of a synergistic approach involving MUSE and HST data.
