description: With the increase of food supply and the improvement of production processes, the real value of certain food products has been steadily declining over the past decades, which is certainly a trend that has seriously transformed the moral value of food, its role in society and its associated personal attitudes. According to UN and FAO estimates, in 2016, 30-35% of our food was wasted. Food waste in households is also a special area of research in terms of their high wasting rate. While exploring the causes of high amounts of consumer waste, a research group has also correlated (with mathematical models) the gradual growth rate of food waste, the US obesity epidemic and the growing supply of cheaper food products (Hall et al. 2009). In our research, we examine certain personal aspects in case of specific (e.g. functional) foods as well. A significant decrease in food waste coming from households could be attained by controlling our attitudes. Food waste, consumption awareness, eating habits, food mileage, water footprint, sustainable eating, energy efficiency: these are all terms which have to have their meaning and importance taught to people, as they contain important – affecting the level of wasting – information. Therefore, we can see that food waste itself is one of the most serious, paradoxical and global modern issues which the developed world has identified, and is trying to decrease by using national and international interventions in order to limit food supply anomalies and environmental loads as much as possible. Understanding personal attributes more precisely might be a good practice for providing future solutions, as well.

description: The energetics of transition and noble metal (Rh, Pd, Cu) vicinal surfaces, i.e., surface energy, step energy, kink energy and electronic interactions between steps, is studied at 0K from electronic structure calculations in the tight-binding approximation using a {\it s, p} and {\it d} valence orbital basis set. Then, the surface phonon spectra of copper are investigated in the harmonic approximation with the help of a semi-empirical inter-atomic potential. This allows to derive the contribution of phonons at finite temperatures to the step free energy and to the interactions between steps. The last part is devoted to the stability of vicinal surfaces relative to faceting with special attention to the domain of orientations (100)-(111). Semi-empirical potentials are shown to be not realistic enough to give a reliable answer to this problem. The results derived from electronic structure calculations predict a variety of behaviors and, in particular, a possible faceting into two other vicinal orientations. Finally, temperature effects are discussed. Comparisons are made with other theoretical works and available experiments.

description: N-d elastic scattering is studied at different energies using one of the modern NN interactions, the Argonne v_{18} which explicitly includes the magnetic moment interaction between two nucleons. This interaction, which has been often neglected in the description of the few-nucleon continuum, produces sizable modifications in some elastic observables. Its effects, as well as those produced by the Coulomb potential, are analyzed as a function of energy. The magnetic moment interaction produces appreciable effects in $p-d$ scattering at low energies butthey are very small above 10 MeV. Above 65 MeV Coulomb effects can be observed only in specific observables as for example $T_{21}$.

description: Polish agriculture is obliged to reduce ammonia (NH3) emissions, compared to 2005, by 1% annually in 2020-29 and by 17% annually from 2030. A significant source of emissions is the use of slurry. In Poland, it is mainly broadcast on the field surface and incorporated 4-24 hours after application. The ALFAM2 model was used to characterize the NH3 emissions from the slurry broadcast depending on the specific parameters for Poland: doses of slurry, its dry matter, air temperature, wind speed, precipitation and the pH of the slurry. In relation to the NH3 emission from the slurry applied broadcast to the field surface, the emissions resulting from the application of slurry by trailing hoses, trailing shoe, open slot injection, shallow and deep injection were estimated. On the basis of the obtained results, the emission reduction values were estimated for the basic practices of its application. / Streszczenie. Rolnictwo polskie zobowiązane jest do redukcji emisji amoniaku (NH3), w stosunku do 2005 r., o 1% corocznie w latach 2020-29 oraz o 17% corocznie od 2030 r. Znaczącym źródłem emisji jest stosowanie gnojowicy. W Polsce aplikuje się ją głównie rozbryzgowo na powierzchnię pola i przyoruje po 4-24 godzinach od aplikacji. W pracy zastosowano model ALFAM2 do scharakteryzowania emisji NH3 z rozbryzgowego stosowania gnojowicy w zależności od specyficznych dla Polski: dawek gnojowicy, jej suchej masy, temperatury powietrza, prędkości wiatru, opadów oraz pH gnojowicy. W stosunku do emisji NH3 z gnojowicy stosowanej na powierzchnię pola oszacowano emisje powstające przy aplikacji gnojowicy za pomocą wężów wleczonych, wężów z redlicami oraz aplikacji do otwartych szczelin, płytko doglebowo i głęboko doglebowo. Na podstawie uzyskanych wyników oszacowano wielkości redukcji emisji dla podstawowych praktyk jej aplikacji.

Evolution of the Cosmological Density Distribution Function: A New Analytical Model

description: The one-point probability distribution function (pdf) of the large-scale density field is an important tool to follow the evolution of cosmological structures. In this paper we present a new model for this pdf for all regimes and all densities, that is from linear to highly non-linear scales and from rare voids up to rare high densities. This is probably the simplest model one can build which is consistent with normalization constraints and known rigorous results (the quasi-linear regime and the rare void limit). It is fully parameterized by the non-linear variance and skewness. We obtain a good agreement with N-body data from realistic cosmological simulations of the VIRGO consortium and we find that it works significantly better than previous models such as the lognormal model or the Extended Perturbation Theory (EPT). We explain this success as a result of the tight constraints onto the pdf provided by these consistency conditions. We also point out that while the Lagrangian dynamics of typical fluctuations is quite complex the statistical outcome seems rather simple. This simple model should be useful for studies which require a realistic and convenient description of this pdf.

description: We compare the oxygen abundance (O/H) of the Narrow Line Regions (NLRs) of Seyfert 2 AGNs obtained through strong-line methods and from direct measurements of the electron temperature (Te-method). The aim of this study is to explore the effects of the use of distinct methods on the range of metallicity and on the mass-metallicity relation of AGNs at low redshifts (z < 0.4). We used the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and NASA/IPAC Extragalactic Database (NED) to selected optical (3000 < A < 7000) emission line intensities of 463 confirmed Seyfert 2 AGNs. The oxygen abundance of the NLRs were estimated using the theoretical Storchi-Bergmann et al. calibrations, the semi-empirical N2O2 calibration, the bayesian Hii-Chi-mistry code and the Te-method. We found that the oxygen abundance estimations via the strong-line methods differ from each other up to ~0.8 dex, with the largest discrepancies in the low metallicity regime (12 + log(O/H) . 8.5). We confirmed that the Te-method underestimates the oxygen abundance in NLRs, producing unreal subsolar values. We did not find any correlation between the stellar mass of the host galaxies and the metallicity of their AGNs. This result is independent of the method used to estimate Z.

Quantum coin tossing and bit-string generation in the presence of noise

Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: We discuss the security implications of noise for quantum coin tossing protocols. We find that if quantum error correction can be used, so that noise levels can be made arbitrarily small, then reasonable security conditions for coin tossing can be framed so that results from the noiseless case will continue to hold. If, however, error correction is not available (as is the case with present day technology), and significant noise is present, then tossing a single coin becomes problematic. In this case, we are led to consider random n-bit string generation in the presence of noise, rather than single-shot coin tossing. We introduce precise security criteria for n-bit string generation and describe an explicit protocol that could be implemented with present day technology. In general, a cheater can exploit noise in order to bias coins to their advantage. We derive explicit upper bounds on the average bias achievable by a cheater for given noise levels.

First passage leapovers of Lévy flights and the proper formulation of absorbing boundary conditions

Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Statistical Mechanics (cond-mat.stat-mech)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: An important open problem in the theory of Lévy flights concerns the analytically tractable formulation of absorbing boundary conditions. Although numerical studies using the correctly defined nonlocal approach have yielded substantial insights regarding the statistics of first passage, the resultant modifications to the dynamical equations hinder the detailed analysis possible in the absence of these conditions. In this study it is demonstrated that using the first-hit distribution, related to the first passage leapover, as the absorbing sink preserves the tractability of the dynamical equations for a particle undergoing Lévy flight. In particular, knowledge of the first-hit distribution is sufficient to fully determine the first passage time and position density of the particle, without requiring integral truncation or numerical simulations. In addition, we report on the first-hit and leapover properties of first passages and arrivals for Lévy flights of arbitrary skew parameter, and extend these results to Lévy flights in a certain ubiquitous class of potentials satisfying an integral condition.

description: We show that products of the isotopic substitution reactions in experimentally accessible molecules such as NaK, RbCs, and SrF are cold according to their translational energy below hundreds of mK. For these chemical reactions, molecular products may occupy only the lowest rotational states. We also discuss the possibility of controlling the chemical reactions by the electric field in ultracold mixtures of molecules and atoms with low kinetic energy release, where one of the constituent atoms of colliding molecule is replaced by its isotope. This letter opens new avenues in investigating the branching ratios of chemical reactions in ultracold conditions.

description: Demographic problem areas are perceived as one of the most important types of problem areas and require special research interest. Problem areas conditioned by population factor most often refer to rural areas. Presented article aims to identify and delimit rural demographic problem areas in Poland. The study covered rural areas distinguished on the basis of the classification of the European Commission DEGURBA The analysis enabled to identify depopulation areas, areas with disrupted population reproduction (ie areas of permanent natural decline), areas of permanent outflow of population, areas with impaired population structure by age and areas with disrupted population structure by sex in the group of people of marriage age (20-34 years). To indicate clusters of communes characterised by the presence of the unfavourable demographic phenomena and processes (rural demographic problem areas) the measure of local spatial autocorrelation (Anselin Local Moran's I) was applied. The application value resulting from the research may be the improvement of the effectiveness of public intervention carried out as part of the development policy.

Clustering of Local Group distances: publication bias or correlated measurements? VI. Extending to Virgo cluster distances
Creators: name: de Grijs, Richard
name: Bono, Giuseppe
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2019
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics of Galaxies (astro-ph.GA)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We have established an internally consistent Local Group distance framework, using the Galactic Center, the Large Magellanic Cloud, and Messier 31 (M31) as important stepping stones. At greater distances, few distance benchmarks are available. As a consequence, M87 and/or Virgo cluster distances are often invoked as the next rung on the ladder to more distant objects such as the Fornax and Coma clusters. Therefore, we extensively mined the published literature for independently derived distance estimates to either M87 or the center of the Virgo cluster. Based on our newly compiled, comprehensive database of 213 such distances, published between 1929 and 2017 July, we recommend an outward extension to our distance framework, $(m-M)_0^{\rm M87} = 31.03 \pm 0.14$ mag ($D = 16.07 \pm 1.03$ Mpc; where the uncertainty represents the Gaussian $σ$ of the distribution), based on a subset of recent (post-1990) M87/Virgo cluster distance measurements. The most stable distance tracers employed here were derived from analysis of both primary and secondary distance indicators. Among the former, we preferentially rely on Cepheid period--luminosity relations and red-giant-branch terminal magnitudes; our preferred secondary distance tracers are surface brightness fluctuations. Our updated distance modulus to M87 implies a slightly reduced black hole mass of $(5.9 \pm 0.6) \times 10^9 M_\odot$ with respect to that determined by the Event Horizon Telescope collaboration.

description: The article concerns the effects of the Russian embargo on apple producers in Poland. Scientific literature is quite poor in this field, mainly information articles in industry literature and media information are available. The literature was reviewed in this respect and two studies (questionnaire and interview) were carried out. The information obtained allowed us to draw conclusions about the very large negative impact of the embargo on the apple market and to learn about its characteristics. New markets do not generate sufficient demand, in 2018 apple prices dropped below production costs, but this does not reflect in a drop in prices in stores, which means that price speculations take place, and the situation is used by realtors. It is necessary to quickly return to the Russian market, because soon it will be unrecoverable for Polish fruit farmers. It is also necessary to put pressure on the European Union's policy, because nowadays it is the Polish farmers who bear its effects to the greatest extent.

description: The aim of the study was to examine the changes in production and export of raspberries and sour cherries, which are the domain of Polish production on the international markets, in the countries of Eastern and Southern Europe during the 2006-2017. There was used data from Faostat database for the analysis of fruit production, and from Comtrade database for the analysis of export volume. Study points to the development of production and an increase in the export of raspberries in countries with a smaller area of cultivation of this fruit crops and stability in countries with a large area of crops of raspberries. In the case of sour cherries, in most countries, both large and small area plantings, production potential, and volume of production of fruit of this species declined. The export of sour cherries increased particularly from countries with less potential in the production of sour cherries. The development of the production and export of raspberries from countries with lower production capacity may in the future be competition for Poland on the international markets. Celem pracy było zbadanie jak zmieniała się produkcja i eksport owoców, które są domeną polskiej produkcji na rynku międzynarodowym, czyli malin i wiśni, w krajach Europy Wschodniej i Południowej w okresie 2006-2017. Do analizy produkcji owoców wykorzystano dane pochodzące z bazy Faostat, a wielkości eksportu – dane z bazy Comtrade. / Streszczenie. Przeprowadzona analiza wskazała na rozwój produkcji oraz wzrost eksportu malin w krajach o mniejszym areale upraw tych owoców oraz stabilizację w krajach posiadających dużą powierzchnię upraw malin. W przypadku wiśni, w większości krajów, zarówno o dużej jak i małej powierzchni nasadzeń, potencjał produkcyjny oraz zbiory owoców tego gatunku zmniejszały się. Eksport wiśni zwiększał się szczególnie z krajów o mniejszym potencjale w produkcji wiśni. Rozwój produkcji i eksportu malin z krajów o dotychczas mniejszym potencjale produkcyjnym może w przyszłości stanowić konkurencję dla Polski na rynkach międzynarodowych.

description: We investigate the possibility to disentangle the radions in the Randall-Sundrum scenario from higgs boson at the next generation high energy $e^+ e^-$ linear colliders. Due to trace anomaly, the radion coupling (and in turn the branching ratio) to gluons is enhanced over the same for the Standard Model (SM) higgs. We study the radion production at electron-positron colliders, via the fusion of W-bosons in association with neutrinos, and propose to investigate radion decay to a pair of gluons. At 500 GeV center of mass energy, our signal is not very promising. We find our results are encouraging for finding radion and differentiating it from higgs for center of mass energies of 1 TeV and above.

description: We study the one-dimensional quarter-filled extended Hubbard model with an alternating transfer integral. In the strong-dimerization limit the charge part is described by the quantum Ising model which shows the two-dimensional Ising criticality at the self-dual point, and it is naturally connected to the double-frequency sine-Gordon theory in the weak dimerization. Treating low-lying excitations in finite-size systems, we numerically determine a phase boundary between two types of $4k_{\rm F}$ density-wave states and clarify the ground-state phase diagram. Further, we refer to its relevances to the charge-ordered phase observed in the charge-transfer organic salts.

description: We generalize the JIMWLK evolution equation to include the small-$x$ evolution of helicity distributions. To derive helicity JIMWLK, we use the method devised by A.H. Mueller for the usual unpolarized JIMWLK, and apply it to the helicity evolution equations derived earlier. We obtain a functional evolution equation for the generalized JIMWLK weight functional. The functional now is a sum of a helicity-independent term and a helicity-dependent term. The kernel of the new evolution equation consists of the standard eikonal leading-order JIMWLK kernel plus new terms containing derivatives with respect to the sub-eikonal quark and gluon fields. The new kernel we derive can be used to generate the standard JIMWLK evolution and to construct small-$x$ evolution equations for flavor-singlet operators made of any number of light-cone Wilson lines along with one Wilson line containing sub-eikonal helicity-dependent local operator insertions (a "polarized Wilson line").

description: We formulate analytically the reflection of a one dimensional, expanding free wave-packet (wp) from an infinite barrier. Three types of wp's are considered, representing an electron, a molecule and a classical object. We derive a threshold criterion for the values of the dynamic parameters so that reciprocal (Kramers-Kronig) relations hold {\it in the time domain} between the log-modulus of the wp and the (analytic part of its) phase acquired during the reflection. For an electron, in a typical case, the relations are shown to be satisfied. For a molecule the modulus-phase relations take a more complicated form, including the so called Blaschke term. For a classical particle characterized by a large mean momentum ($\hbar K >> \frac{\hbar trajectory length} {(size of wave-packet)^2} >>> \frac{\hbar}{size of wave-packet}$) the rate of acquisition of the relative phase between different wp components is enormous (for a bullet it is typically $10^{14}$ GHertz) with also a very large value for the phase maximum.

description: Pairs of numerically computed trajectories of a chaotic system may coalesce because of finite arithmetic precision. We analyse an example of this phenomenon, showing that it occurs surprisingly frequently. We argue that our model belongs to a universality class of chaotic systems where this numerical coincidence effect can be described by mapping it to a first-passage process. Our results are applicable to aggregation of small particles in random flows, as well as to numerical investigation of chaotic systems.

description: The Ontario Council of University Libraries (OCUL) is a consortium of twenty-one university libraries in the province of Ontario that collaborates on resource sharing, access to resources and technologies. OCUL was represented at IASSIST 2010 with a pecha kucha session that explored and demonstrated our vision for an online geospatial portal, a project that is currently in development. Our vision includes the provision of tools for identifying, exploring, and downloading licensed geospatial data, as well as collaboration and teaching tools. The vision also involves the creation and open sharing of standards-based geospatial metadata. In Fall 2011, OCUL will be launching its first release of the geospatial portal. The spring 2011 IASSIST session will provide a preview of the portal, demonstrating the available tools. The session will also discuss the expected impact of the portal at Ontario universities, assessment plans, and future development goals.

description: Graphene is a promising material for applications as a channel in graphene field-effect transistors (GFETs) which may be used as a building block for optoelectronics, high-frequency devices and sensors. However, these devices require gate insulators which ideally should form atomically flat interfaces with graphene and at the same time contain small densities of traps to maintain high device stability. Previously used amorphous oxides, such as SiO2 and Al2O3, however, typically suffer from oxide dangling bonds at the interface, high surface roughness and numerous border oxide traps. In order to address these challenges, here we use for the first time 2nm thick epitaxial CaF2 as a gate insulator in GFETs. By analyzing device-to-device variability for over 200 devices fabricated in two batches, we find that tens of them show similar gate transfer characteristics. Our statistical analysis of the hysteresis up to 175C has revealed that while an ambient-sensitive counterclockwise hysteresis can be present in some devices, the dominant mechanism is thermally activated charge trapping by border defects in CaF2 which results in the conventional clockwise hysteresis. We demonstrate that both the hysteresis and bias-temperature instabilities in our GFETs with CaF2 are comparable to similar devices with SiO2 and Al2O3. In particular, we achieve a small hysteresis below 0.01 V for equivalent oxide thickness (EOT) of about 1 nm at the electric fields up to 15 MV/cm and sweep times in the kilosecond range. Thus, our results demonstrate that crystalline CaF2 is a promising insulator for highly-stable GFETs.
Nonlinear Tight-Binding Approximation for Bose-Einstein Condensates in a Lattice

description: The dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates trapped in a deep optical lattice is governed by a discrete nonlinear equation (DNL). Its degree of nonlinearity and the intersite hopping rates are retrieved from a nonlinear tight-binding approximation taking into account the effective dimensionality of each condensate. We derive analytically the Bloch and the Bogoliubov excitation spectra, and the velocity of sound waves emitted by a traveling condensate. Within a Lagrangian formalism, we obtain Newtonian-like equations of motion of localized wavepackets. We calculate the ground-state atomic distribution in the presence of an harmonic confining potential, and the frequencies of small amplitude dipole and quadrupole oscillations. We finally quantize the DNL, recovering an extended Bose-Hubbard model.
Prototype of Open Source Metadata Editor for Individual Researchers in Japan

description: The Social Science Japan Data Archive (SSJDA) plays the role of a major data provider for those who seek to analyze the Japanese society using micro data. Deposited datasets to the SSJDA are described in various formats and we have many works to create metadata of the each survey. This situation is not good for managing our archive. We thought this situation can be changed through disseminating the Data Documentation Initiative (DDI). Due to its complexity of the specification of the DDI, the metadata are often created with certain software such as Nesstar, Colectica and so on. With these applications, researchers can easily create DDI documents, but these applications are relatively expensive for individual researchers. In addition, Japanese researchers have difficulty to use them because of language barrier. Thus we are developing free software to edit DDI documents. In this presentation, we will show a prototype of open source metadata editor and its process.

description: This paper reports on the modulation of Schottky barrier heights (SBH) on three different orientations of $β$-Ga$_2$O$_3$ by insertion of an ultra-thin SiO$_2$ dielectric interlayer at the metal-semiconductor junction, which can potentially lower the Fermi-level pinning (FLP) effect due to metal-induced gap states (MIGS). Pt and Ni metal-semiconductor (MS) and metal-interlayer-semiconductor (MIS) Schottky barrier diodes were fabricated on bulk n-type doped $β$-Ga$_2$O$_3$ single crystal substrates along the (010), (-201) and (100) orientations and were characterized by room temperature current-voltage (I-V) and capacitance-voltage (C-V) measurements. Pt MIS diodes exhibited 0.53 eV and 0.37 eV increment in SBH along the (010) and (-201) orientations respectively as compared to their respective MS counterparts. The highest SBH of 1.81 eV was achieved on the (010)-oriented MIS SBD using Pt metal. The MIS SBDs on (100)-oriented substrates exhibited a dramatic increment ($>$1.5$\times$) in SBH as well as reduction in reverse leakage current. The use of thin dielectric interlayers can be an efficient experimental method to modulate SBH of metal/Ga$_2$O$_3$ junctions.

description: Minimization of cortical prediction errors has been considered a key computational goal of the cerebral cortex underlying perception, action and learning. However, it is still unclear how the cortex should form and use information about uncertainty in this process. Here, we formally derive neural dynamics that minimize prediction errors under the assumption that cortical areas must not only predict the activity in other areas and sensory streams but also jointly project their confidence (inverse expected uncertainty) in their predictions. In the resulting neuronal dynamics, the integration of bottom-up and top-down cortical streams is dynamically modulated based on confidence in accordance with the Bayesian principle. Moreover, the theory predicts the existence of cortical second-order errors, comparing confidence and actual performance. These errors are propagated through the cortical hierarchy alongside classical prediction errors and are used to learn the weights of synapses responsible for formulating confidence. We propose a detailed mapping of the theory to cortical circuitry, discuss entailed functional interpretations and provide potential directions for experimental work.
DDI + API: building services on top of your existing DDI holdings

Publisher: name: Zenodo

description: A Nesstar Server is an example of a web-based container that can store and make available DDI metadata to consuming applications. Once a DDI-document is published to a Nesstar Server, the contents of the document is made available via a Java API. Developers of third party clients may use this API to connect to any such server, and programmatically navigate and harvest collections of DDI-documents held there, or just to extract information from specific DDI-fields relevant to the consuming application. For many years, most clients developed to interact with the Nesstar API was developed in-house, and integrated as part of the Nesstar Software Suite. Recently, however, third party clients have started to emerge, and they use the DDI-container and the API for very different purposes, including, but not limited to: Variable "shopping carts" for simplified downloads of complex data sets Automated harvesters for indexing in Solr-powered search systems, including searchable study- and question/variable databases Harvester taking snapshots for persistent archiving in DataVerse (beta) Search engine optimized rendering of DDI content for exposing DDI-holdings to generic search engines like Google The presentation will demonstrate the basic architecture of the DDI-driven API, and show examples of some of the current services built to interact with the API.

description: The aim of this article is to establish whether the symptoms of an emerging housing bubble can be observed on the Polish market. The concept of this study is based on a comparison between economic, financial and demographic conditions at the time of the mortgage crisis in Spain and the current situation on the housing market and on the market of housing loans granted to households in Poland. An analysis of two economic indicators, (i) housing loans to households-to-GDP expressed in growth rates and (ii) rates of house price growth, does not indicate that a speculative bubble occurs in Poland now. This, however, does not mean that the conclusions drawn from the Spanish crisis cannot and should not have a bearing on the Polish market, especially in terms of potential consequences the crisis may have for the banking sector.
