The Dynamics of Quarkonium Production

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Quarkonium production is a sensitive probe of the dynamics of hard scattering, which can `measure' the environment of the heavy quark pair after it is created in a hard process. Quarkonium hadroproduction data indicates that the produced pair experiences a secondary, hard interaction and then ceases to interact at a stage when the pair is still compact (compared to the size of the quarkonium wave function). These features differ from scenarios mostly discussed so far. An approach which relies on an early, perturbative rescattering of the pair with a comoving color field can explain many observed features, including the polarization, the $χ_1/χ_2$ ratio and the nuclear target $A$-dependence, which are difficult to understand otherwise.

On welfare losses due to imperfect competition

welfare losses.

description: Corporate managers and executive compensation in many industries place significant emphasis on measures of firm size, such as sales revenue or market share. Such objectives have an important yet thus far unquantified impact on market performance. With n symmetric firms, equilibrium welfare losses are of order 1/n4, and thus vanish extremely quickly. Welfare losses are less than 5% for many empirically relevant market structures, despite significant firm asymmetry and industry concentration. They can be estimated using only basic information on market shares. These results also apply to oligopsonistic competition (e.g., for retail bank deposits) and strategic forward trading (e.g., in restructured electricity markets). Forthcoming in Journal of Industrial Economics.

Influence of the Outer Boundary Condition on models of AGB stars

Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)

description: Current implementations of the stellar atmosphere typically derive boundary conditions for the interior model from either grey plane-parallel atmospheres or scaled solar atmospheres, neither of which can be considered to have appropriate underlying assumptions for the Thermally Pulsing Asymptotic Giant Branch (TP-AGB). This paper discusses the treatment and influence of the outer boundary condition within stellar evolution codes, and the resulting effects on the AGB evolution. The complex interaction of processes, such as the third dredge up and mass loss, governing the TP-AGB can be affected by varying the treatment of this boundary condition. Presented here are the results from altering the geometry, opacities and the implementation of a grid of MARCS/COMARCS model atmospheres in order to improve this treatment. Although there are changes in the TP-AGB evolution, observable quantities, such as the final core mass, are not significantly altered as a result of the change of atmospheric treatment. During the course of the investigation, a previously unseen phenomena in the AGB models was observed and further investigated. This is believed to be physical, although arising from specific conditions which make its presence unlikely. If it were present in stars, this phenomenon would increase the carbon-star lifetime above 10Myr and increase the final core mass by $\sim0.1M_{\odot}$ in the narrow initial-mass range where it was observed ($\sim2-2.3M_{\odot}$).

Using low-temperature scanning tunneling spectroscopy (STS), we here report on the direct real-space visualization of chiral Majorana edge states in a monolayer topological superconductor, a prototypical magnet-superconductor hybrid system comprised of nano-scale Fe islands of monoatomic height on a Re(0001)-O(2$\times$1) surface. In particular, we demonstrate that interface engineering by an atomically thin oxide layer is crucial for driving the hybrid system into a topologically non-trivial state as confirmed by theoretical calculations of the topological invariant, the Chern number.

Strategy-Proof Stochastic Assignment
Creators: name: Erdil, A.
Publisher: name: Faculty of Economics
Year: 2013

description: I study strategy-proof assignment mechanisms where the agents reveal their preference rankings over the available objects. A stochastic mechanism returns lotteries over deterministic assignments, and mechanisms are compared according to first-order stochastic dominance. I show that non-wasteful strategy-proof mechanisms are not dominated by strategy-proof mechanisms, however nonwastefulness is highly restrictive when the mechanism involves randomization. In fact, the Random Priority mechanism (i.e., the Random Serial Dictatorship), and a recently adopted school choice mechanism, Deferred Acceptance with Random Tie-breaking, are wasteful. I find that both these mechanisms are dominated by strategy-proof mechanisms. In general, strategy-proof improvement cannot be due to merely reshuffling objects, and therefore must involve assigning more objects.
Gaia unveils the kinematics of multiple stellar populations in 47 Tucanae

description: The series of events, which occurred at high redshift and originated multiple stellar populations in Globular Clusters (GCs) are still poorly understood. Theoretical work suggests that the present-day dynamics of stars in nearby GCs, including the rotation and velocity dispersion, may retain important clues on the formation of multiple populations. So far, the dynamics of multiple populations have been investigated either from radial velocities of a relatively-small sample of stars, or from relative proper motions of stars in the small field of view provided by the Hubble Space Telescope. In this context, Gaia provides the unique opportunity to investigate the dynamics of thousands GC stars over a wide field of view. For the first time, we combine Gaia DR2 proper motions and multi-band photometry to study the internal motions of the two main stellar populations of 47 Tucanae in a wide field of view. We confirm that this cluster exhibits high rotation on the plane of the sky and find that both stellar generations share similar rotation patters. Second-generation stars show stronger anisotropies and smaller tangential-velocity dispersion than the first generation, while there is no significant difference between their radial-velocity dispersion profiles. We discuss the impact of these results in the context of the formation scenarios for multiple stellar populations in GCs.

Inequality Constraints and Euler Equation based Solution Methods
Creators: name: Rendahl, P.
Publisher: name: Faculty of Economics
Year: 2013
Subjects: Time iteration

description: Solving dynamic models with inequality constraints poses a challenging problem for two major reasons: dynamic programming techniques are reliable but often slow, while Euler equation based methods are fast but have problematic or unknown convergence properties. This paper attempts to bridge this gap. I show that a common iterative procedure on the Euler equation { usually referred to as time iteration { delivers a sequence of approximate policy functions that converges to the true solution under a wide range of circumstances. These circumstances extend to an arbitrarily large, but nite, set of endogenous and exogenous state-variables as well as a very broad spectrum of occasionally binding constraints.

What Proportion of Time is a particular Market inefficient?...Analysing market efficiency when equity prices follow Threshold Autoregressions.
Creators: name: Ahmed, M. F.

Publisher: name: Faculty of Economics
Year: 2016

description: We assume that log equity prices follow multi-state threshold autoregressions and generalize existing results for threshold autoregressive models, presented in Knight and Satchell (2012) for the existence of a stationary process and the conditions necessary for the existence of a mean and a variance; we also present formulae for these moments. Using a simulation study we explore what these results entail with respect to the impact they can have on tests for detecting bubbles or market efficiency. We find that bubbles are easier to detect in processes where a stationary distribution does not exist. Furthermore, we explore how threshold autoregressive models with i.i.d trigger variables may enable us to identify how often asset markets are inefficient. We find, unsurprisingly, that the fraction of time spent in an efficient state depends upon the full specification of the model; the notion of how efficient a market is, in this context at least, a model-dependent concept. However, our methodology allows us to compare efficiency across different asset markets.

However, there is an alarming increase in mental illnesses associated with the high use of social media. Given that mental health is an imperative aspect of an overall healthy lifestyle, it is vital to consider how millions of people utilize and rely on social media applications daily, making them vulnerable to mental illnesses associated with social media use. In addition to this, a particular demographic may be at high risk: a target age group, people of color, underprivileged communities, and a particular gender.
On the legal reusability of public data in Europe

description: This presentation was part of an online seminar titled "The ability to use and re-use published data for which the copyright or license is missing or unclear". The event was hosted by the Danish Centre for Environmental Assessment Aalborg University, Denmark on 1 March 2022. The seminar itself was not recorded based on the wishes of participants. The abstract for this presentation starts (truncated by about half): Energy system analysts working in Europe and elsewhere have begun the long journey toward establishing a knowledge commons for the energy sector. The advantages of having a single, virtual, maintained, shared, and coherent bedrock of data for integrated system analysis are self‑evident. The entire undertaking is nonetheless predicated on being able to source legally unencumbered public data from official sources. This presentation examines the legal status of public data in Europe under current conditions. Key legislation like the database directive 96/9/EC, the open data directive 2019/1024, and prevailing copyright law are examined in the context of this emerging knowledge commons. And the picture that emerges is far from encouraging. Despite its name, the open data directive does not support genuinely re‑usable data, the database directive remains an impediment, the legal status of material under statutory reporting is in general compromised, and it can be difficult to discern the conditions under which pivotal public sector entities should release their information. The solution advocated here is to press for public information providers to deploy Creative Commons CC‑BY‑4.0 licenses on primary data and CC0‑1.0 public domain dedications on the associated metadata and cataloging information.

sensitivity analysis

description: To advance current knowledge of the uranium market, a system dynamics model of the nuclear fuel cycle for the time period 1988 to 2048 has been developed. The proposed framework of analysis illustrates some of the key features of the market for this commodity, including the role that time lags play in the formation of price volatility. Various demand reduction and substitution strategies and technologies are explored, and potential external shocks are simulated to investigate how price and the associated industry respond. Sensitivity analysis performed by considering key model parameters indicates that the time constant related to the formation of traders' expectations of future market prices embedded in the proposed price discovery mechanism has a strong influence on both the amplitude and frequency of price peaks. One particularly interesting and timely scenario simulated is the possibility of the ending of the 'Megatons to Megawatts' program, in which the USA agreed to buy down-blended uranium from former Soviet nuclear warheads for use in power production. This agreement has not been formally renewed and we find that in the absence of new substitute sources this could cause a significant rise in uranium prices. Finally, our analysis leads us to believe that uranium resource scarcity will not pose any significant challenges until the second half of the twenty first century at the earliest, even if high uranium demand projections are realized.
Efficiency and Environmental Factors in the US Electricity Transmission Industry

Year: 2013
Subjects: inefficiency determinants

description: The electricity industry in most developed countries has been restructured over recent decades with the aim of improving both service quality and firms' performance. Regulated segments (e.g. transmission) still provide the infrastructure for the competitive segments and represent a notable amount of the total price paid by final customers. However there is a lack of empirical studies that analyze firms' performance in the electricity transmission sector. We conduct an empirical analysis of the US electricity transmission companies for the period 2001-2009. We use stochastic frontier models that allow us to identify determinants of firms' inefficiency and to control for weather conditions, potentially one of the most decisive uncontrollable factors in electricity transportation. Our results suggest that there is room for improvement in the performance of the US electricity transmission system. Regulators should also take into account that more adverse conditions generate higher levels of inefficiency and that achieving long-term efficiency improvements tends to deteriorate firms' short-term relative performance.
title: THREE ESSAYS ON ANGLO-AMERICAN LABOR REFORM
Creators: name: (:Unkn) Unknown
Publisher: name: George Mason University
Year: 2020

description: This dissertation focuses on Anglo-American labor reforms during the Industrial Revolution. The most common explanations for the changing age profile of the labor force are evaluated. New insight to the political economy of regulation is provided using empirical methods and game theoretic models. Chapter 1 reviews theories which explain the demand of child labor as a function of technology. Chapter 2 contains an in-depth empirical analysis of the differences in enforcing progressive labor reforms in Victorian Britain. Chapter 3 explores the impact of the United Mine Workers of America (UMWA) on banning child labor from mines. This dissertation is designed to further the study of the political economy of passing and enforcing regulations.
Common Correlated Effects Estimation of Heterogeneous Dynamic Panel Data Models with Weakly Exogenous Regressors

description: This paper extends the Common Correlated Effects (CCE) approach developed by Pesaran (2006) to heterogeneous panel data models with lagged dependent variable and/or weakly exogenous regressors. We show that the CCE mean group estimator continues to be valid but the following two conditions must be satisfied to deal with the dynamics: a sufficient number of lags of cross section averages must be included in individual equations of the panel, and the number of cross section averages must be at least as large as the number of unobserved common factors. We establish consistency rates, derive the asymptotic distribution, suggest using co- variates to deal with the effects of multiple unobserved common factors, and consider jackknife and recursive de-meaning bias correction procedures to mitigate the small sample time series bias. Theoretical findings are accompanied by extensive Monte Carlo experiments, which show that the proposed estimators perform well so long as the time series dimension of the panel is sufficiently large.

description: The All-Sky Automated Survey for Supernovae (ASAS-SN) is the only project in existence to scan the entire sky in optical light every $\sim$day, reaching a depth of $g\sim18$ mag. Over the course of its first four years of transient alerts (2013-2016), ASAS-SN observed 53 events classified as likely M dwarf flares. We present follow-up photometry and spectroscopy of all 53 candidates, confirming flare events on 47 M dwarfs, one K dwarf, and one L dwarf. The remaining four objects include a previously identified TT Tauri star, a young star with outbursts, and two objects too faint to confirm. A detailed examination of the 49 flare star light curves revealed an additional six flares on five stars, resulting in a total of 55 flares on 49 objects ranging in $V$-band contrast from $ΔV = -1$ to $-10.2$ mags. Using an empirical flare model to estimate the unobserved portions of the flare light curve, we obtain lower limits on the $V$-band energy emitted during each flare, spanning $\log(E_V/{\rm ergs})=32$ to $35$, which are among the most energetic flares detected on M dwarfs. The ASAS-SN M-dwarf flare stars show a higher fraction of H$α$ emission as well as stronger H$α$ emission compared to M dwarfs selected without reference to activity, consistent with belonging to a population of more magnetically active stars. We also examined the distribution of tangential velocities, finding that the ASAS-SN flaring M dwarfs are likely to be members of the thin disk and are neither particularly young nor old.

smart solutions

description: The aim of this study is to explore different practices for accelerating the integration of generating facilities to the electricity network using smart solutions. Case studies from Great Britain, Ireland and Northern Ireland and the Unites States were selected. The paper assesses and compares the different Principles of Access (POA) that have been implemented in these countries, such as Last-in First-out (LIFO), Pro Rata and Market-based. The social optimality of these approaches is also discussed. The paper also evaluates how the risk (regarding curtailment and investment) is allocated between parties (distributor network operators, generators and customers). Even though the cases are diverse, important findings and lessons have been identified which may assist UK distribution network operators to address the issue of increasing the connection of distributed generation while managing efficiently and economically energy exports from generators.

description: The discovery of biomarkers is often performed using high-throughput proteomics-based platforms and is limited to the molecules recognized by a given set of purified and validated antigens or antibodies. Knowledge-based, or systems biology, approaches that involve the analysis of integrated data, predominantly molecular pathways and networks may infer quantitative changes in the levels of biomolecules not included by the given assay from the levels of the analytes profiled. In this study we attempted to use a knowledge-based approach to predict biomarkers reflecting the changes in underlying protein phosphorylation events using Nonalcoholic Fatty Liver Disease (NAFLD) as a model. Two soluble biomarkers, CCL-2 and FasL, were inferred in silico as relevant to NAFLD pathogenesis. Predictive performance of these biomarkers was studied using serum samples collected from patients with histologically proven NAFLD. Serum levels of both molecules, in combination with clinical and demographic data, were predictive of hepatic fibrosis in a cohort of NAFLD patients. Our study suggests that (1) NASH-specific disruption of the kinase-driven signaling cascades in visceral adipose tissue lead to detectable changes in the levels of soluble molecules released into the bloodstream, and (2) biomarkers discovered in silico could contribute to predictive models for non-malignant chronic diseases.

description: The relative magnetic helicity is a quantity that is often used to describe the level of entanglement of non-isolated magnetic fields, such as the magnetic field of solar active regions.The aim of this paper is to investigate how different kinds of photospheric boundary flows accumulate relative magnetic helicity in the corona and if and how-well magnetic helicity related quantities identify the onset of an eruption. We use a series of three-dimensional, parametric magnetohydrodynamic simulations of the formation and eruption of magnetic flux ropes. All the simulations are performed on the same grid, using the same parameters, but they are characterized by different driving photospheric flows, i.e., shearing, convergence, stretching, peripheral- and central- dispersion flows. For each of the simulations, the instant of the onset of the eruption is carefully identified by using a series of relaxation runs. We find that magnetic energy and total relative helicity are mostly injected when shearing flows are applied at the boundary, while the magnetic energy and helicity associated with the coronal electric currents increase regardless of the kind of photospheric flows. We also find that, at the onset of the eruptions, the ratio between the non-potential magnetic helicity and the total relative magnetic helicity has the same value for all the simulations, suggesting the existence of a threshold in this quantity. Such threshold is not observed for other quantities as, for example, those related to the magnetic energy.

Does integration increase life satisfaction
Creators: name: Koczan, Zs
Publisher: name: Faculty of Economics
Year: 2013
Subjects: segregation
citizenship law

description: In recent years there has been increasing interest in measuring subjective well-being in economics; most of the literature on immigrants has however continued to focus on `objective' measures of integration such as employment and education outcomes. This paper aims to complement these studies by analysing the life satisfaction of immigrants once settled in the host country, examining which elements of integration matter for life satisfaction. We find that in terms of simple averages immigrants appear to be less satisfied than natives. However, contrary to the results of some recent papers, this difference can be explained by factors related to economic integration, such as the details of their employment conditions, rather than cultural factors such as feelings of not belonging, which often loom large in the public mind. Also segregation does not affect their life satisfaction per se. While having host country citizenship appears to have a large, significant positive effect in a simple pooled ordinary least squares specification, exploiting a natural experiment of changes in the citizenship law in the host country we find that this is driven by a selection effect rather than an increase in life satisfaction due to obtaining citizenship.
title: Sartre’s ‘Secret Face’ as Factical Imago: A Lacanian-Existentialist Conception of Death Drive Desire
Creators: name: Borowski, Allia Larissa
Publisher: name: George Mason University
Year: 2009
Subjects: subject: Sartre
subject: Lacan
subject: Death drive
subject: Secret face
subject: Mirror stage
subject: The look

description: Sartre’s and Lacan’s bitter philosophical feud notwithstanding, these two French contemporaries had more in common that they’d care to admit. In this thesis, I identify that the function of Sartre’s ‘Look’ and Lacan’s ‘mirror stage’ is the same; viz., to reveal to the subject its inherent splitness. Both Lacan and Sartre ascribe to a theory of split subjectivity, in which the human being is split between its subjectivity and its objectivity—for Lacan, the innenwelt and the umwelt, and for Sartre, the for-itself and factical being in-itself and for-others. Hence, in both existentialism and psychoanalytic theory, I am other to myself, and my in-the-world ego is ‘not-me.’ But whereas Lacan describes the ideal-ego—the imago—as an imaginary construct, from the perspective of the (m)Other, my imago is not an impossible ideal-ego; on the contrary, it is me. Something is missing from Lacan—something which Lacan leaves out, and only Sartre affirms: namely, the imago is not merely ‘imaginary,’ but factical. This ‘me’ is real; it is in-the-world. Thus, I on principle can never reach a one-to- one self-identification with my imago, yet in an important and true sense, I nevertheless am it. This ‘me’ that I cannot experience and yet nevertheless am, Sartre calls the ‘secret face.’ The secret face is my factical self—my being-in-the-world-for- Others—the ‘out there’ness of my umwelt, that on principle escapes me. In this thesis, I view Sartre’s look as analogous to the mirror stage, in which the imago that I apprehend in the eyes of the Other is my ‘secret face.’ By making this analogy between Lacan’s imago and Sartre’s secret face, I want to show the connection between the imago I desire and facticity (more specifically, my own purely factical being, devoid of subjectivity), which describes the death drive, the desire for the dissolution of subjectivity. And by viewing the imago not as some imaginary construct, but as an actual thing in-the-world, we see desire (of the imago) as more directly linked to death (the dissolution of subjectivity), where ‘death’ describes becoming my immanent, purely factical being, both ontologically, as my secret face which is ‘me’ devoid of my ‘selfness,’ or subjectivity, and literally, as my dead corpse. In this way, Sartrean Existentialism and Lacanian Psychoanalytic theory work together to generate a more comprehensive and sophisticated account of the imago and of death drive desire, categories which describe the tragic drama of human split-subjectivity.
Relic neutrino asymmetry evolution from first principles

description: The exact Quantum Kinetic Equations for a two-flavour active-sterile neutrino system are used to provide a systematic derivation of approximate evolution equations for the relic neutrino asymmetry. An extension of the adiabatic approximation for matter-affected neutrino oscillations is developed which incorporates decoherence due to collisions. Exact and approximate expressions for the decoherence and repopulation functions are discussed. A first pass is made over the exact treatment of multi-flavour partially incoherent oscillations.

Does identity matter
Creators: name: Koczan, Zs
Publisher: name: Faculty of Economics
Year: 2013
Subjects: integration

description: We examine the question of whether identity is just a `label' or whether it matters in affecting outcomes, such as education, employment or political orientation, using data on Turkish and ex Yugoslavian second generation immigrants in Austria and Germany. We begin with an empirical investigation of identity formation, with a focus on parental investment in their child's identity, and use this to understand the impact of the child's own identity on own outcomes, a generation later. The results suggest that identity does not have a significant effect on education, employment and political orientation, thus suggesting that a strong ethnic/ religious minority identity does not constrain the second generation or hamper socioeconomic integration.

Influence of the electric field on edge dislocations in smectics
Creators: name: Holyst, R.
name: Oswald, P.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1995
Subjects: subject: Condensed Matter (cond-mat)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The electric field applied perpendicularly to smectic layers breaks the rotational symmetry of the system. Consequently, the elastic energy associated with distortions induced by an edge dislocation diverges logarithmically with the size of the system. In freely suspended smectic films the dislocations in the absence of the electric field are located exactly in the middle of the film. The electric field above a certain critical value can shift them towards the surface. This critical field squared is a linear function of the surface tension and is inversly proportional to the thickness of the film. The equilibrium location of a dislocation in the smectic film subjected to the field is also calculated.

Extracting |V_{ub}| from the Hadronic Mass Spectrum of Inclusive B decays

description: Following a strategy introduced earlier by the authors, we show that it is possible to extract |V_{ub}| from the cut hadronic mass spectrum of B decays without large systematic errors which usually arise from having to model the Fermi motion of the heavy quark. We present a closed form expression for |V_{ub}|/|V_{ts}| which is accurate up to corrections of order α_s^2, α_s ρ, (Λ/m_b)^2/ρ, where ρis the experimental cut (s_c/m_b^2) on the hadronic mass used to veto charmed decays. Modulo duality violation errors, which are intrinsic to all inclusive predictions, we estimate the theoretical error in the extraction to be at the 5% level.

title: Considering Decisions Before They Bring Consequences: An Analysis of D.C. School Boards and Their Decision-Making
Creators: name: Sanderson, Anna

Subjects: subject: School boards
subject: Elected
subject: Appointed
subject: Meeting minutes
subject: Education governance
subject: District of Columbia Public Schools

description: This thesis is a comparative historical analysis of the appointed and elected District of Columbia Public School Board of Education. Using the Boards’ meeting minutes, the study illuminates how the selection method of the two governance structures influenced each of the body’s meeting structures and decision-making. The current evolving roles and responsibilities of school boards have led to the significant scrutiny of them, including their impact on schools and whether or not they should remain in existence at all. However, with the acknowledgment that every school district has uniquely different needs, this research provides insight into the dialogue and rhetoric to help us understand how the different governance structures approached their policymaking roles.
Electroweak baryogenesis induced by a scalar field

description: A cosmological pseudoscalar field coupled to hypercharge topological number density can exponentially amplify hyperelectric and hypermagnetic fields while coherently rolling or oscillating, leading to the formation of a time-dependent condensate of topological number density. The topological condensate can be converted, under certain conditions, into baryons in sufficient quantity to explain the observed baryon asymmetry in the universe. The amplified hypermagnetic field can perhaps sufficiently strengthen the electroweak phase transition, and by doing so, save any pre-existing baryon number asymmetry from extinction.
