description: Ceramic particles have been introduced into metal matrices to improve the strength and stiffness of metals, albeit at the cost of the ductility unfortunately. Simultaneously increasing the strength and ductility of metal matrix composites (MMCs) is still a challenge. Accumulative orthogonal extrusion process (AOEP), which disperses nanoparticles and refines grain structures of particles reinforced MMCs via severe plastic deformation, is proposed in this paper. The high strength (687 MPa) and superior ductility (14.8%) are simultaneously achieved in the resultant TiB2 particles reinforced Al–Zn–Mg–Cu matrix composites, and the underlying mechanisms are discussed in terms of particles’ influences. An easily realized SPD technology is proposed to effectively optimize the structures of nanoparticles reinforced composites in industrial scale. High strength and good ductility are simultaneously achieved in the resultant composites.

description: In agriculture, the application of plant protection products to cropland is important to prevent quality and yield reduction. The use of plant protection products implies negative effects on human health and the environment. Thus, a legal measure towards reducing the use of plant protection products is its restriction or ban especially in sensitive areas.
This is the first national study to use publicly and freely available geodata to access the area of agricultural land located in different types of sensitive areas according to the proposal for a new EU Regulation on the Sustainable Use of Plant Protection Products (SUR). We assess the impact of different scenarios for a German implementation. In this study we analyse publicly available geodata of CORINE land cover 5 ha of 2018 with geographic information systems (GIS) for different scenarios.
The results show that the impact of a pesticide ban or restriction for sensitive areas differs between regions and the type or combination of sensitive area. Using the CLC5-2018 data we estimate 19.6 million hectares of national agricultural area. Landscape Protection Area, Nature Parks and Water Protection Areas contain the largest proportion of agricultural land. A scenario which considers National Parks, Nature Reserves, Biosphere Reserves, Nature Parks, Natural Monuments, Landscape Protection Areas and Natura 2000 sites with Fauna-Flora-Habitat areas and Special Protected Areas for bird sanctuaries and Ramsar sites would affect 46.6% of the agricultural land use in Germany, ranging from 33.4% to 77.9% across different states.
Comparing our CLC5-2018 results to a similar study from 2023, which used LBM-DE as land use data, we find that there is little difference between the results of identical scenario definitions when expressed as proportions. Whereas different SUR scenario definitions can lead to significantly different outcomes.

The Aharonov-Casher Theorem and the Axial Anomaly in the Aharonov-Bohm Potential

description: The spectral properties of the Dirac Hamiltonian in the the Aharonov-Bohm potential are discussed. By using the Krein-Friedel formula, the density of states (DOS) for different self-adjoint extensions is calculated. As in the nonrelativistic case, whenever a bound state is present in the spectrum it is always accompanied by a (anti)resonance at the energy. The Aharonov-Casher theorem must be corrected for singular field configurations. There are no zero (threshold) modes in the Aharonov-Bohm potential. For our choice of the 2d Dirac Hamiltonian, the phase-shift flip is shown to occur at only positive energies. This flip gives rise to a surplus of the DOS at the lower threshold coming entirely from the continuous part of the spectrum. The results are applied to several physical quantities: the total energy, induced fermion-number, and the axial anomaly.

description: We propose a scheme which can effectively restore fixed points in the quantum dynamics of repeated Jaynes-Cummings interactions followed by atomic state measurements, when the interaction times fluctuate randomly. It is based on selection of superposed atomic states whose phase correlations tend to suppress the phase fluctuations of each separate state. One suggested realization involves the convergence of the cavity field distribution to a single Fock state by conditional measurements performed on two-level atoms with fluctuating velocities after they cross the cavity. Another realization involves a trapped ion whose internal-motional state coupling fluctuates randomly. Its motional state is made to converge to a Fock state by conditional measurements of the internal state of the ion.

Estimation of Non-Normalized Mixture Models and Clustering Using Deep Representation

description: We develop a general method for estimating a finite mixture of non-normalized models. Here, a non-normalized model is defined to be a parametric distribution with an intractable normalization constant. Existing methods for estimating non-normalized models without computing the normalization constant are not applicable to mixture models because they contain more than one intractable normalization constant. The proposed method is derived by extending noise contrastive estimation (NCE), which estimates non-normalized models by discriminating between the observed data and some artificially generated noise. We also propose an extension of NCE with multiple noise distributions. Then, based on the observation that conventional classification learning with neural networks is implicitly assuming an exponential family as a generative model, we introduce a method for clustering unlabeled data by estimating a finite mixture of distributions in an exponential family. Estimation of this mixture model is attained by the proposed extensions of NCE where the training data of neural networks are used as noise. Thus, the proposed method provides a probabilistically principled clustering method that is able to utilize a deep representation. Application to image clustering using a deep neural network gives promising results.

description: Measuring inelastic rates with partial wave resolution requires temperatures close to a Kelvin or below, even for the lightest molecule. In a recent experiment Perreault et al. [1] studied collisional relaxation of excited HD molecules in the v = 1, j = 2 state by para- and ortho-H2 at a temperature of about 1 K, extracting the angular distribution of scattered HD in the v = 1,j = 0 state. By state-preparation of the HD molecules, control of the angular distribution of scattered HD was demonstrated. Here, we report a first-principles simulation of that experiment which enables us to attribute the main features of the observed angular distribution to a single L = 2 partial-wave shape resonance. Our results demonstrate important stereodynamical insights that can be gained when numerically-exact quantum scattering calculations are combined with experimental results in the few-partial-wave regime.

description: The European Farm to Fork strategy strives to reduce pesticide use and risk by 50% by 2030, preserving agricultural productivity, biodiversity, and human health. Novel research on crop diversification and new field arrangements, supported by digital technologies, offers sustainable innovations for pest control. This study evaluates digital yellow water traps, equipped with a camera and associated artificial intelligence model for continuous pollen beetle monitoring in diversified agricultural landscapes. Data were collected in oilseed rape from three harvest years (2021-2023) at the experimental site patchCROP, a landscape experiment established to study the effects of spatial and temporal crop diversification measures on yield, ecosystem services, and biodiversity. In patchCROP, crops were planted in smaller, 0.5 ha (72 × 72 m) squares called "patches" with different pesticide management strategies and were compared to surrounding commercial fields. The digital yellow water traps and AI were evaluated and found to be useful for gauging pollen beetle immigration into the crop. Across all years, higher insect pest pressure was recorded in the patches compared to commercial fields but did not necessarily compromise yields. Implementation of pesticide management strategies, including targeted insecticide applications at specific insect pest thresholds, were not associated with reduced yields in patches with flower strips. Future studies should consider examining the role of field size and alternative diversification approaches to fine-tune insecticide reduction strategies at the landscape scale.

description: Plant pests, diseases and weeds threaten agricultural crops and require control methods. However, the largely used pesticides are associated with undesirable effects on environment and health. To reduce pesticide use, Integrated Pest Management (IPM) offers a comprehensive toolbox. The two selected IPM strategies (1) wide crop rotation and (2) cultivation of pathogen resistant cultivars were analysed economically based on two different field trials. Crop rotation (long-term field trial at Dahnsdorf, Brandenburg, Germany, with a sixunit crop rotation) and pesticide reduction by 25% and 50% resulted in no decline in gross margins and thus profitability in silo maize, wheat (E- and A-quality), barley and rye. However, a 25% and 50% reduction in pesticides led to a decline in gross margins by -6.3% (-331 € ha-1) and -8.3% (-437 € ha-1) in potatoes. The use of pathogen resistant wheat cultivars and IPM based fungicide application (tested at five field sites across Germany) resulted in reduced fungicide applications and higher gross margins compared to the “non-IPM” strategy by about +45 to 70 € ha-1. Based on these findings, we conclude that preventive IPM strategies have a good potential to reduce pesticide use and are also economically viable for farmers.

description: Sustainable consumption decisions can be promoted by claims on food. It is essential that the claims are consumeroriented. In this light, the consumer evaluation of different labelling variants for pesticide-free vegetables was recorded for three claims on the pesticide renunciation and four claims on sustainability-related consequences of the pesticide renunciation. An online survey was conducted with 953 German consumers. Each participant was randomly assigned to one of seven subsamples. Each subsample evaluated one of seven claims. The evaluations show that all claims were rated as “moderately” to “quite understandable” and appropriate to the cultivation form and would “perhaps” to “quite probably” be helpful in the purchase decision. Further, the claims on pesticide renunciation were perceived as more understandable, more appropriate for the cultivation form and more helpful for the purchase decision compared to the claims on sustainability-related consequences. The findings are useful for actors in the agricultural and food sector.

description: We present a new indirect method to measure the quantum state of a single mode of the electromagnetic field in a cavity. Our proposal combines the idea of (endoscopic) probing and that of tomography in the sense that the signal field is coupled via a quantum-non-demolition Hamiltonian to a meter field on which then quantum state tomography is performed using balanced homodyne detection. This technique provides full information about the signal state. We also discuss the influence of the measurement of the meter on the signal field.

description: In endeavors to manage agricultural cropping systems without the application of chemical-synthetic plant protection products (CSPs), one of the greatest challenges is ensuring yield performance. The literature provides a wealth of data on organic farming yields and the gap between organic and conventional systems, but little knowledge on the yield performance of cropping systems that use mineral fertilizers but not CSPs. This paper presents the first results of field trials at two locations in Germany comparing cultivation systems that are free of chemical-synthetic plant protection, but use mineral fertilizers, with both conventional and organic cropping systems. These system trials are part of the joint research project "Agriculture 4.0 without chemical-synthetic plant protection (NOcsPS)". Initial results show that CSP-free cultivation systems generally achieve lower yields than conventional systems, but considerably higher yields than organic systems.

It is pointed out that double beta decays with Majoron emission depend on new matrix elements, which have not been considered in the literature. A calculation of these matrix elements and phase space integrals is presented. We find that for new Majoron models extremely small decay rates are expected.

description: We consider the application of heavy fermion formalism based chiral perturbation theory to meson production in nucleon-nucleon collisions. It is shown that for one loop contributions the heavy fermion formalism expansion corrections for the nucleon propagator produce infinite series of correction terms which are of the same momentum power order. This destroys the one-to-one correspondence between the perturbative and small momentum expansion and thus negates the application of any finite order heavy fermion formalism chiral perturbation theory to the $NN\to NN π$ reactions.

description: Reducing the intensity of pesticide use is a societal and political issue. One way to realize this is to reduce the dose of applied pesticides. The impact of strict dose reductions on yield and net return in winter rye was examined in a longterm field trial at the experimental field of the Julius Kühn Institute in Dahnsdorf (Brandenburg) over a 13-year period (2004-2016). Pesticide treatments included a situation-related strategy (100% strategy) and two other strategies in which the doses were reduced by 25% and 50% compared to the 100% strategy. Treatment decisions were based on control thresholds in the 100% strategy. Fungal pathogens and weeds occurred in all years and had to be controlled. Insect pests were negligible. Averaged over all years, there was a significant difference of 4% in yield between the 100% strategy and the 50% strategy. In contrast, no differences were found in terms of net return. There was also no accumulation of weeds in the reduced strategies. This positive result is due to the close monitoring of the plots as well as the six-year crop rotation and shows that it is possible to reduce pesticide use in winter rye.

description: Background: Preprofessional ballet dancers are exposed to the risk of injuries, primarily in the lower extremities, with most injuries occurring during jumping and landing activities. Interlimb asymmetry during jumping and landing activities has been associated with the injury risk in adolescent athletes, but this has not been examined in dancers. Purpose: To investigate associations between interlimb asymmetry during a double-leg countermovement jump (DL-CMJ) and single-leg jump (SLJ) and the injury risk in adolescent preprofessional ballet dancers. Study Design: Cohort study; Level of evidence, 2. Methods: Adolescent preprofessional ballet dancers (N = 255) performed 3 DL-CMJs and 3 SLJs on force plates during annual screening. Absolute and directional (separate values for left and right limb dominance) asymmetries in a set of kinetic variables during a DL-CMJ and in jump height during an SLJ were calculated. Each variable was characterized as having ‘‘high’’ or ‘‘normal’’ asymmetry according to the percentage of asymmetry (greater than or less than or equal to, respectively, the mean 6 0.5 SD) based on the present sample. Risk ratios (RRs) and 95% CIs were calculated based on the injury incidence in the subsequent academic year. Results: Of the 242 dancers that satisfied the inclusion criteria, 128 injuries were observed in the subsequent academic year. In the whole sample, 3 absolute, 7 left limb–dominant, and 1 right limb–dominant kinetic asymmetry in the eccentric, concentric, and landing phases of the DL-CMJ as well as left limb–dominant jump height asymmetry in the SLJ were associated with a significant (P \ .001) increase in the injury risk (RR, 1.28-1.69 [95% CI, 1.02-2.37]). Separating by sex, asymmetries in the eccentric and landing phase of the DL-CMJ were not significant in boys, while in girls, RRs for asymmetries in the eccentric and landing phase of the DL-CMJ increased, and SLJ jump height asymmetry was not significant. Conclusion: Higher asymmetries in certain kinetic variables during the DL-CMJ and in jump height during the SLJ were associated with an elevated risk of injuries in elite preprofessional ballet dancers with some sex-specific differences. Associations were mainly identified for high left limb–dominant asymmetry in the takeoff phase, suggesting that the injury risk may be specific to a relative right limb deficit.

description: We investigate transient spin-dependent thermoelectric signatures in a single-molecule magnet under the effect of a time-dependent voltage pulse. We model the system using nonequilibrium Green's functions and a generalized spin equation of motion incorporating the dynamic electronic structure of the molecule. We show that the generated heat current in the system is due to both charge and spin contributions, related to the Peltier and the spin-dependent Peltier effect. There is also a clear signature in the heat current due to the spin dynamics of the single-molecule and a possibility to control the spin-dependent heat currents by bias, tunneling coupling and exchange interaction. A reversal of the net heat transfer in the molecule is found for increasing bias voltage due to the local Zeeman split and we can correlate the net heat transfer with the local anisotropies and dynamic exchange fields in the system.

description: We use perturbative QCD, beyond the leading $\ln Q^2$ approximation, to show how measurements of diffractive $J/ψ$ production at HERA can provide a sensitive probe of the gluon density of the proton at small values of Bjorken $x$. We estimate both the effect of the relativistic motion of the $c$ and $\overline{c}$ within the $J/ψ$ and of the rescattering of the $c\overline{c}$ quark pair on the proton. We find that the available data for diffractive $J/ψ$ photoproduction can discriminate between the gluon distributions of the most recent sets of partons.

description: This study presents an up-to-date survey of the comparison issue between state-owned enterprises (SOEs) and township and village enterprises (TVEs) in China. Although TVEs are disadvantaged in areas such as technology, labour skills, education levels of staff, access to bank loans and government supports, they have important advantages in ownership and governance structures, personnel systems, labour relations, and conditions of institutional arrangement. These advantages apparently have outweighed the disadvantages, allowing the TVEs to outperform SOEs and successfully expand market shares that previously belonged to the SOEs. However, our analysis also reveals that SOEs may not have performed so badly if the values they created other than reported profits are also taken into account. In conclusion, we argue that both SOEs and TVEs need to reform their ownership and governance structures. In particular, if TVEs are to develop further during the next century they cannot avoid the grassroots democratization.

description: A sharp rise in unemployment and a sharp rise in mortality have been two recurrent aspects of the process of transition. In response to the unemployment challenge transitional economies have equipped themselves with labour market policies (LMPs) derived from market economies experiences. This has been done in a rather homogenous fashion across the transitional spectrum irrespective of the profound existing differences between Central and Eastern European (CEEs) economies and Commonwealth of Independent States (CISs) labour markets. This calls for a reconsideration of LMPs when labour market, macro and microeconomic conditions present substantial peculiarities. It is argued that, in economies particularly depressed where growth constraints lie in the disruption and disorganization of production, LMPs focused on the demand side rather than on the supply side of the labour market can be a better policy instrument by achieving multiple objectives at the same time. In the light of the current social and health outcome visible in Kazakhstan, there are strong arguments to support a diversification of both aims and beneficiaries of LMPs

description: We design an optical feedback network making use of machine learning techniques and demonstrate via simulations its ability to correct for the effects of turbulent propagation on optical modes. This artificial neural network scheme only relies on measuring the intensity profile of the distorted modes, making the approach simple and robust. The network results in the generation of various mode profiles at the transmitter that, after propagation through turbulence, closely resemble the desired target mode. The corrected optical mode profiles at the receiver are found to be nearly identical to the desired profiles, with near-zero mean square error indices. We are hopeful that the present results combining the fields of machine learning and optical communications will greatly enhance the robustness of free-space optical links.

Theoretical description of the total gamma*gamma* cross-section and its confrontation with the LEP data on doubly tagged e+e- events

description: We perform a detailed analysis of the total inelastic cross-section for gamma*gamma* collisions. Different contributions coming from the quark box diagram, reggeons, the soft and hard pomeron are included. The QCD pomeron contribution contains a dominant part of subleading effects which reduces its intercept and delays the onset of the asymptotic pomeron to high energies. Estimates of the cross-section for doubly-tagged (e+e- to e+e- hadrons) events are presented and compared with the existing LEP data. Good agreement between the theoretical results and the experimental data is found. We also comment on the extraction of the BFKL pomeron intercept from the available LEP measurements.

description: We show how it is possible to suppress decoherence using tailored external forcing acting as pulses. In the limit of infinitely frequent pulses decoherence and dissipation are completely frozen; however, a significant decoherence suppression is already obtained when the frequency of the pulses is of the order of the reservoir typical frequency scale. This method could be useful in particular to suppress the decoherence of the center-of-mass motion in ion traps.

Computers and Labour Markets: International Evidence

description: The rapid diffusion of computers has widely changed the consequences of computer use on the labour market. While at the beginning of the eighties knowledge of computers was an obvious advantage in a career, this same knowledge is now so commonplace that the inability to use these tools is widely seen in many industries as a professional handicap. In relation to such drastic transformations, changes in the North American wage structure during the eighties in favour of the better educated have been interpreted by many analysts as evidence of skill-biased technical change. Evidence outside the US, and in particular in Europe, seems to support the idea that similar transformations affected most other labour markets. In this study, we review the empirical evidence on the relation between computer use and labour market outcomes. More precisely, we examine the relation between the broadening use of computers on one side, and wages, skill-composition of the workforce and unemployment on the other. All evidence presented seems to point to the following conclusion: Something is going on, but there is no reason to call it skill-biased technical change in its simplest acceptance. Why should we otherwise observe such different trends in the United States and in Europe? The computer is used everywhere in the developed countries, and the diffusion rates are roughly equal. Furthermore, the machines and softwares used are increasingly similar and delivered simultaneously. Hence, if trends on the various labour markets are caused mostly by technical change, these trends should also be very similar. This does not seem to be what is happening in the Western world. Institutions with both classical supply and demand factors should be able to explain a large fraction of the observed facts. Moreover, it also seems apparent that what matters in a period of rapid diffusion of computers is interpersonal skills; such skills are complements to computer use. Indeed, more research should be devoted to the study of the internal organization of the firm in a highly computerized environment.

description: We present the BFKL equation as a reggeon Bethe-Salpeter equation and discuss the use of reggeon diagrams to obtain 2-2 and 2-4 reggeon interactions at $O(g^4)$. We then outline the dispersion theory basis of multiparticle $j$-plane analysis and describe how a gauge theory can be studied by combining Ward identity constraints with the group structure of reggeon interactions. The derivation of gluon reggeization, the $O(g^2)$ BFKL kernel, and $O(g^4)$ corrections, is described within this formalism. We give an explicit expression for the $O(g^4)$ forward ``parton'' kernel in terms of logarithms and evaluate the eigenvalues. A separately infra-red finite component with a holomorphically factorizable spectrum is shown to be present and conjectured to be a new leading-order partial-wave amplitude. A comparison is made with Kirschner's discussion of $O(g^4)$ contributions from the multi-Regge effective action.

description: Developments in quantum technologies lead to new applications that require radiation sources with specific photon statistics. A widely used Poissonian statistics are easily produced by lasers; however, some applications require super- or sub-Poissonian statistics. Statistical properties of a light source are characterized by the second-order coherence function g^(2)(0). This function distinguishes stimulated radiation of lasers with g^(2)(0)=1 from light of other sources. For example, g^(2)(0)=2 for black-body radiation, and g^(2)(0)=0 for single-photon emission. One of the applications requiring super-Poissonian statistics (g^(2)(0)>1) is ghost imaging with thermal light. Ghost imaging also requires light with a narrow linewidth and high intensity. Currently, rather expensive and inefficient light sources are used for this purpose. In the last year, a superluminescent diode based on amplified spontaneous emission (ASE) has been considered as a new light source for ghost imaging. Even though ASE has been widely studied, its photon statistics has not been settled - there are neither reliable theoretical estimates of the second-order coherence function nor unambiguous experimental data. Our computer simulation clearly establishes that coherence properties of light produced by ASE are similar to that of a thermal source with g^(2)(0)=2 independent of pump power. This result manifests the fundamental difference between ASE and laser radiation.
