description: Laboratory experimental methods are used to investigate the impacts of supply and/or demand risks on prices, quantities traded, and earnings within forward and spot market institutions. Random demand and/or supply shifts can be as much as 25 percent of the expected equilibrium outcome. Nevertheless, results suggest that the spot or forward trading institution itself has a greater influence on market outcomes than the presence of risk within the trading institutions. Sellers tend to have relatively higher earnings in a spot market than buyers, regardless of the risk. Total surplus, however, generally is greater in a forward market.
High Energy Neutrinos from the TeV Blazar 1ES 1959+650

description: The AMANDA neutrino telescope has recently reported the detection of high-energy neutrinos spatially and temporally coincident with the flaring of the TeV blazar 1ES 1959+650. At present, the statistical significance of this observation cannot be reliably assessed, however. In this letter, we investigate whether circumstances exist where the source can produce the flux implied by the coincident events. We show that if the TeV gamma-ray emission observed from 1ES 1959+650 or other nearby TeV blazars is the result of accelerated protons interacting with nucleons, it is reasonable that AMANDA could detect several events during a flaring period. Such rates require that the spectral index of the source be rather high (for instance $\sim2.8$ for 1ES 1959+650) and that the Lorentz factor of the jet be fairly small ($Γ\sim 1$).

description: From 1993 - 1995, Florida dairy cooperatives implemented a seasonal pricing plan in an attempt to decrease the variability in seasonal production. Farmers that participated in the seasonal pricing plan were able to reduce seasonality in each year when compared to 1992 by as much as 20 percent. For farmers that did not participate, seasonality increased in each year by as much as 32 percent. Overall, the seasonal pricing plan was effective in reducing seasonality for those farmers that chose to participate in the plan and that its limited short-run success was the result of seasonality increases by non-participating farms.

description: We report the serendipitous detection of an H$_{2}$-bearing damped Lyman-$α$ absorber at z = 0.576 in the spectrum of the QSO J0111-0316 in the Cosmic Ultraviolet Baryon Survey. Spectroscopic observations from HST-COS in the far-ultraviolet reveal a damped absorber with log[N(HI)/cm^-2] = 20.1 +/- 0.2 and log[N(H$_{2}$)/cm^-2] = 18.97 (-0.06, +0.05). The diffuse molecular gas is found in two velocity components separated by dv = 60 km/s, with >99.9% of the total H$_{2}$ column density concentrated in one component. At a metallicity of $\approx$ 50% of solar, there is evidence for Fe enhancement and dust depletion, with a dust-to-gas ratio $κ_{\text{O}} \approx$ 0.4. A galaxy redshift survey conducted with IMACS and LDSS-3C on Magellan reveals an overdensity of nine galaxies at projected distance d <= 600 proper kpc (pkpc) and line-of-sight velocity offset dv$_{g}$ <= 300 km/s from the absorber. The closest is a massive, early-type galaxy at d = 41 pkpc which contains $\approx$ 70% of the total stellar mass identified at d <= 310 pkpc of the H$_{2}$ absorber. The close proximity of the H$_{2}$-bearing gas to the quiescent galaxy and the Fe-enhanced chemical abundance pattern of the absorber suggest a physical connection, in contrast to a picture in which DLAs are primarily associated with gas-rich dwarfs. This case study illustrates that deep galaxy redshift surveys are needed to gain insight into the diverse environments that host dense and potentially star-forming gas.

description: The next generation of circular high energy collider is expected to be a lepton collider, FCC-ee at CERN or CEPC in China. However, the civil engineering concepts foresee to equip these colliders with bigger detector caverns than one would need for a lepton collider, so that they can be used for a hadron collider that may be installed in the same tunnel without further civil engineering. This opens up the possibility to install extra instrumentation at the cavern walls to search for new long-lived particles at the lepton collider. We use the example of heavy neutral leptons to show that such an installation could improve the sensitivity to the squared mixing parameter by almost half an order of magnitude.

description: It has recently been suggested that in a brane world scenario with large extra dimensions, short distance gravitational interactions can enhance the dark matter scattering cross-section in a velocity dependent way. Such a modification may then help to address possible problems with non-interacting cold dark matter on galactic and sub-galactic scales. We argue that, considering the singular character of the higher dimensional Newtonian potential, the scattering cross-section is UV-dependent, depending ultimately on the underlying quantum gravity theory considered. We demonstrate that for a wide class of unitary short distance regularizations, the actual cross-section is velocity-independent and does not significantly affect dark matter substructure. We comment on the problem of thermalization of ultra-light cold dark matter by gravitational interactions in the early universe.

description: In this paper, we explore the extent to which the evolution of the EU food system to 2030 is likely to contribute to achieving dedicated SDGs considering also interactions, synergies, and trade- offs with the rest of the world. Given the multiplicity of the SDGs, we examine a subset of goals and indicators, related to major social, economic, and environmental issues. In particular, we trace the developments of representative SDG indicators up to 2030 in order to identify possible synergies and trade-offs towards meeting these goals using a modelling toolbox comprised of economic agricultural sector models. FIT4FOOD2030 deliverable 2.1 (Wepner et al., 2018) has discussed several foresight drivers in detail and in isolation. The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), adopted by all United Nations member states in 2015, are an urgent call for action by all countries - developed and developing - as they recognize the importance of working together to combat the growing challenges facing the world. The multiple development goals with a focus on sustainability cover a wide range of social, economic, and environmental topics including, but not limited to, ending poverty, improving health and education, reducing inequality, spurring economic growth, tackling climate change, and preserving natural resources. As the heart of the 2030 agenda, these well-inclusive policy goals provide a shared blueprint for prosperity for all people on the planet, with a clear-targeted, traceable, and measurable approach. There is an expanding literature that has assessed the importance of food systems transformation in achieving the global goals. Agricultural development is essential for the reduction of poverty and hunger (World Bank 2008). Natural resource use related to agriculture and food is inequitable at present, and the benefits from the food system are unequally distributed (The Economics of Ecosystems and Biodiversity (TEEB), 2018). In order to achieve the SDGs there is a need for combined action towards a food supply that is within the long-term carrying capacity of the planet’s ecology and towards consumer diets that contribute to reduce all forms of malnutrition (Haddad et al. 2016, Willet et al. 2019).
Berry phase in graphene: a semiclassical perspective

description: We derive a semiclassical expression for the Green's function in graphene, in which the presence of a semiclassical phase is made apparent. The relationship between this semiclassical phase and the adiabatic Berry phase, usually referred to in this context, is discussed. These phases coincide for the perfectly linear Dirac dispersion relation. They differ however when a gap is opened at the Dirac point. We furthermore present several applications of our semiclassical formalism. In particular we provide, for various configurations, a semiclassical derivation of the electron's Landau levels, illustrating the role of the semiclassical ``Berry-like'' phase

description: The coefficient of friction on dry highway surfaces regardless of stone composition and texture has in most cases been at least 0.6 or above. However, some of these same surfaces when lubricated by a small amount of water have given test results dangerously lower. Some interesting theoretical aspects of this situation are presented here along with results from a laboratory study of the fundamental factors affecting tractive friction.  A machine is described for measuring the coefficient of friction between the plane surfaces of four-inch diameter stone specimens and a rubber annulus of slightly smaller diameter. Measurements were made both wet and dry on finely polished surfaces and on surfaces ground with 80 and 150 grit Carborundum. Tests were conducted under varying loads and speeds. A 60-degree reflectometer was used to evaluate texture and roughness of the plane surfaces. Reflectivity (gloss) values correlated significantly with wet friction values in the highly polished ranges. Tests were conducted on representative samples of four limestones and two sandstones.  Coefficient of friction values of 0.01 and lower were measured on finely polished wet limestone surfaces. Sandstones subjected to the same polishing action averaged about 0.22 when wet. In another series of testing, the specimens were abraded with a coarse Carborundum grit, and the wet friction values were consistently between 0.6 and 0.7 for both limestones and sandstones. For further comparison a piece of plate glass was abraded with this same material, and it too measured within the above limits. Dry friction values remained fairly constant regardless of type of stone or texture.  Test results reveal the tendency for fine grained particles bound in a matrix of similar hardness to polish more readily and to a greater extent than hard particles such as quartz bound in a soft matrix. Limestones, being typical of the former condition, polished easier than sands tones.

description: The widespread use of powdered coal in industrial furnaces has, since its introduction in the 1930's, produced considerable increases in efficiency for many industrial processes. In its wake, however, it has brought its own unique problems, and chief among these has been the problem of collecting and disposing of the residue which results from the combustion of the powdered or ground coal. This residue, known commonly as fly ash, is a nuisance if it is allowed to be dispersed into the atmosphere; and if collected it presents a difficult disposal problem. In present industrial practice it is almost always collected, either with electrostatic precipitators or cyclone separators, and deposited in ever-growing disposal dumps. A recent estimate (20)* gives the imposing figure of six million tons as the annual U.S. production of this waste product.
Interactions of spin waves with a magnetic vortex

description: We have investigated azimuthal spin-wave modes in magnetic vortex structures using time-resolved Kerr microscopy. Spatially resolved phase and amplitude spectra of ferromagnetic disks with diameters from 5 $μ$m down to 500 nm reveal that the lowest order azimuthal spin wave mode splits into a doublet as the disk size decreases. We demonstrate that the splitting is due to the coupling between spin waves and the gyrotropic motion of the vortex core.

Synthesis and photochemistry of AZO-type derivitized porphyrins with crosslinking applications
Creators: name: Desjardins, Angèla M.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The objective of this work was to synthetically modify porphyrins such that they would possess a functionality that would crosslink within its biological environment upon photoactivation, in photodynamic therapy applications. The reaction of diazomethane and protoporphyrin dimethylester (9) yielded a series of three novel pyrazoline porphyrins (10 - 12) that were isolated and characterized. These were investigated for their ability to extrude molecular nitrogen on thermal and photochemical activation with both near-UV and long wavelength light to yield a 1,3- biradical intermediate that may provide a site for potential crosslinking. Upon activation three cyclopropane derivatives (15 - 17) were formed in high yield, presumably through the 1,3 biradical intermediate. These novel cyclopropane porphyrin derivatives were purified and characterized. The optimized diazomethane reaction was then carried out on a chlorin (18), a photosensitizer currently undergoing clinical trials for PDT, to yield the first example of a pyrazoline derivatized methylpyropheophorbide (MePPP, 19). Activation with heat, U V light or long wavelength light yielded the cyclopropane product of MePPP (20), analogous to the photoreaction described for the model PPDME pyrazoline reactions. These studies represent the first example of long wavelength activation of a photoactive functionality at the porphyrin periphery. Attempts to trap the biradical intermediates produced on photoactivation of the pyrazolines were carried out in solution. Unfortunately, no trapped products were isolated, presumably because the lifetimes of these intermediates proved to be too short due to efficient formation of the cyclopropane. The second photoactive functionality that was pursued is anticipated to yield a much longer lived carbene intermediate that should be more effective in cross-linking studies. The synthetic target was the diazirine of TPP (25). Five of the eight reactions planned in the synthesis of (25) were optimized, and scaled-up. Each of the intermediates (21, 22, 23, 24) were isolated and characterized. The reactions leading up to the novel trifluoroacetyl-TPP (23) provide the first example of introducing a trifluoroacetyl group at the β position of the porphyrin.

description: The future 100 TeV FCC-hh hadron collider will give access to rare but clean final states which are out of reach of the HL-LHC. One such process is the $Zh$ production channel in the $(ν\barν / \ell^{+}\ell^{-})γγ$ final states. We study the sensitivity of this channel to the $\mathcal{O}_{φq}^{(1)}$, $\mathcal{O}_{φq}^{(3)}$, $\mathcal{O}_{φu}$, and $\mathcal{O}_{φd}$ SMEFT operators, which parametrize deviations of the $W$ and $Z$ couplings to quarks, or, equivalently, anomalous trilinear gauge couplings (aTGC). While our analysis shows that good sensitivity is only achievable for $\mathcal{O}_{φq}^{(3)}$, we demonstrate that binning in the $Zh$ rapidity has the potential to improve the reach on $\mathcal{O}_{φq}^{(1)}$. Our estimated bounds are one order of magnitude better than projections at HL-LHC and is better than global fits at future lepton colliders. The sensitivity to $\mathcal{O}_{φq}^{(3)}$ is competitive with other channels that could probe the same operator at FCC-hh. Therefore, combining the different diboson channels sizeably improves the bound on $\mathcal{O}_{φq}^{(3)}$, reaching a precision of $|δg_{1z}| \lesssim 2 \times 10^{-4}$ on the deviations in the $ZWW$ interactions.

description: Childhood stunting among preschool-age children stands as a serious public health problem to be addressed in Nepal. Applying the multi-level modeling approach to nationally representative data, in the overall, we provide evidence that the negative influence of maternal own education to childhood stunting occurs especially for mother's higher level of education, but there exists substantial residential variations. Most interestingly, we provide new evidence of a strong negative community externality of maternal education on childhood stunting, even if mothers of children are uneducated. We also find mother's height is negatively related to childhood stunting, regardless of mother's educational attainment and place of residence, providing evidence of intergenerational transmission of maternal health.

description: Coupled cluster Green's function (GFCC) calculation has drawn much attention in the recent years for targeting the molecular and material electronic structure problems from a many body perspective in a systematically improvable way. However, GFCC calculations on scientific computing clusters usually suffer from expensive higher dimensional tensor contractions in the complex space, expensive interprocess communication, and severe load imbalance, which limits it's routine use for tackling electronic structure problems. Here we present a numerical library prototype that is specifically designed for large scale GFCC calculations. The design of the library is focused on a systematically optimal computing strategy to improve its scalability and efficiency. The performance of the library is demonstrated by the relevant profiling analysis of running GFCC calculations on remote giant computing clusters. The capability of the library is highlighted by computing a wide near valence band of a fullerene C60 molecule for the first time at the GFCCSD level that shows excellent agreement with the experimental spectrum.

description: It is shown that all contracting, spatially homogeneous, orthogonal Bianchi cosmologies that are sourced by an ultra-stiff fluid with an arbitrary and, in general, varying equation of state asymptote to the spatially flat and isotropic universe in the neighbourhood of the big crunch singularity. This result is employed to investigate the asymptotic dynamics of a collapsing Bianchi type IX universe sourced by a scalar field rolling down a steep, negative exponential potential. A toroidally compactified version of M*-theory that leads to such a potential is discussed and it is shown that the isotropic attractor solution for a collapsing Bianchi type IX universe is supersymmetric when interpreted in an eleven-dimensional context.

ESTONIA • 1 spec.; Paope quarry; Kõrgessaare Formation, Vormsi Regional Stage; TUG 1006-13.
Description
The specimen is a ca 120° long fragment of a body chamber with a broad elliptical whorl cross section. The dorsal part of the whorl is not preserved. The fragment has a shallow annulations, which run nearly directly transverse over the umbilical margin, ca 19–20 annulations occur per volution. A shallow U-shaped hyponomic sinus is apparent both from faint growth lines preserved on the mold and the shape of the annulations. The preserved part of the conch has a maximum diameter of 52 mm, and the diameter of the preceding whorl is 33 mm (WER = 2.48); at its adoral end the whorl width is 18 mm and the corresponding whorl height is 16 mm (WWI = 1.13).
Remarks
The conch shape and ornamentation of this fragmentary specimen is similar to annulated species of Charactoceras, such as C. kallholnense Frye, 1982 or C. suecicum Frye, 1982, However, the siphuncle including the septal foramen are not preserved, making a genus determination uncertain, and the fragmentary character of this specimen does not permit species level determination.

description: The purpose of this paper is to determine the impact of remittances on remittance-receiving households' agricultural production activities. The empirical analysis corrects for the endogeneity of remittances using an instrumental variable random effects model. Results suggest that remittances do not change the total labor hours supplied by the household but remittances do affect different family members' labor allocations. Specifically, an increase in remittances significantly increases adult male on-farm labor, significantly decreases adult female off-farm labor, and significantly increases child off-farm work.

description: The presence of quark matter in neutron stars may affect several neutron star observables and the neutrino signal in core-collapse supernovae. These observables are sensitive to the phase of quark matter that is present in compact objects. We present the first calculation of the phase structure of dense quark matter which includes a six-fermion color-superconducting interaction and show that the effect of this term can destabilize the pairing interaction, favoring phases where fewer quarks are paired. In turn, this modification of the phase structure can modify the neutrino signal, the structure of the neutron star, and the long-term cooling. We also show that, contrary to the 20-year old paradigm of the surface structure of the "strange-quark stars", the surface of these objects may consist of nuggets of strange quark matter screened by the electron gas.

description: The paper presents a measurement of the Standard Model Higgs Boson decaying to $b$-quark pairs in the vector boson fusion (VBF) production mode. A sample corresponding to 126 fb$^{-1}$ of $\sqrt{s} =$ 13 TeV proton-proton collision data, collected with the ATLAS experiment at the Large Hadron Collider, is analyzed utilizing an adversarial neural network for event classification. The signal strength, defined as the ratio of the measured signal yield to that predicted by the Standard Model for VBF Higgs production, is measured to be $0.95^{+0.38}_{-0.36}$, corresponding to an observed (expected) significance of 2.6 (2.8) standard deviations from the background only hypothesis. The results are additionally combined with an analysis of Higgs bosons decaying to $b$-quarks, produced via VBF in association with a photon.

description: Interest has grown in Water Quality Trading (WQT) as a means to achieve water quality goals, with more than 70 such programs now in operation in the United States. Substantial evidence exists that nonpoint sources can reduce nutrient loading at a much lower cost than point sources, implying the existence of gains from trade. Despite the potential gains, however, the most commonly noted feature of existing WQT markets is low trading volume, with many markets resulting in zero trades. This paper evaluates one explanation for the lack of participation from agricultural nonpoint sources. We test for and quantify the intangible costs' that may deter farmers from trading even if the monetary benefits from doing so outweigh the observable out-of-pocket costs. We do so by designing and implementing a series of choice experiments to elicit WQT trading behavior of Great Plains crop producers in different situations. Attributes of the choice experiment included market rules and features (e.g., application time and effort, penalties for violations, means of monitoring compliance) that may affect farmers' willingness to trade. The choice experiments were conducted with a total of 135 producers at four locations in the state of Kansas between August 2006 and January 2007. A Random Parameters Logit model is appropriate to analyze the resulting data, revealing diversity in the way that the attributes affect farmers' choices.
Persistent spin current in spin-orbit coupling systems in the absence of an external magnetic field

description: The spin-orbit coupling systems with a zero magnetic field is studied under the equilibrium situation, {\it i.e.}, without a voltage bias. A persistent spin current is predicted to exist under most circumstances, although the persistent charge current and the spin accumulation are identically zero. In particular, a two-dimensional quantum wire is investigated in detail. Surprisingly, a persistent spin current is found to flow along the confined direction, due to the spin precession in accompany with the particle motion. This provides an interesting example of constant spin flowing without inducing a spin accumulation, contrary to common intuition.

Subjects: CHIM/03 Chimica generale e inorganica

description: The thesis is focused on the development of a method for the synthesis of silicon nanocrystals with different sizes, narrow size distribution, good optical properties and stability in air. 
The resulting silicon nanocrystals have been covalently functionalized with different chromophores with the aim to exploit the new electronic and chemical properties that emerge from the interaction between silicon nanocrystal surface and ligands.
The purpose is to use these chromophores as light harvesting antennae, increasing the optical absorption of silicon nanocrystals.
Functionalized silicon nanocrystals have been characterized with different analytical techniques leading to a good knowledge of optical properties of semiconductor quantum dots.

description: In an attempt to understand the soliton resolution conjecture, we consider the Sine-Gordon equation on a spherically symmetric wormhole spacetime. We show that within each topological sector (indexed by a positive integer degree $n$) there exists a unique linearly stable soliton, which we call the $n$-kink. We give numerical evidence that the $n$-kink is a global attractor in the evolution of any smooth, finite energy solutions of degree $n$. When the radius of the wormhole throat $a$ is large enough, the convergence to the $n$-kink is shown to be governed by internal modes that slowly decay due to the resonant transfer of energy to radiation. We compute the exact asymptotics of this relaxation process for the $1$-kink using the Soffer-Weinstein weakly nonlinear perturbation theory.

A novel integral representation for the Adler function

description: New integral representations for the Adler D-function and the R-ratio of the electron-positron annihilation into hadrons are derived in the general framework of the analytic approach to QCD. These representations capture the nonperturbative information encoded in the dispersion relation for the D-function, the effects due to the interrelation between spacelike and timelike domains, and the effects due to the nonvanishing pion mass. The latter plays a crucial role in this analysis, forcing the Adler function to vanish in the infrared limit. Within the developed approach the D-function is calculated by employing its perturbative approximation as the only additional input. The obtained result is found to be in reasonable agreement with the experimental prediction for the Adler function in the entire range of momenta $0 \le Q^2 < \infty$.

description: This study evaluates determinants of dairy market participation by agricultural households in Cote d'Ivoire by using the Heckman selection model to correct for endogenous cattle ownership. A key result is that ignoring the population of non-owners biases estimates of market participation parameters. These findings are important in light of the widespread application of livestock market participation analyses that assume cattle ownership is exogeneous.

description: Working in the Wannier representation, we derive an expression for the orbital magnetization of a periodic insulator. The magnetization is shown to be comprised of two contributions, an obvious one associated with the internal circulation of bulk-like Wannier functions in the interior, and an unexpected one arising from net currents carried by Wannier functions near the surface. Each contribution can be expressed as a bulk property in terms of Bloch functions in a gauge-invariant way. Our expression is verified by comparing numerical tight-binding calculations for finite and periodic samples.
