description: Four dimensional heterotic SO(32) orbifold models are classified systematically with model building applications in mind. We obtain all Z3, Z7 and Z2N models based on vectorial gauge shifts. The resulting gauge groups are reminiscent of those of type-I model building, as they always take the form SO(2n_0)xU(n_1)x...xU(n_{N-1})xSO(2n_N). The complete twisted spectrum is determined simultaneously for all orbifold models in a parametric way depending on n_0,...,n_N, rather than on a model by model basis. This reveals interesting patterns in the twisted states: They are always built out of vectors and anti--symmetric tensors of the U(n) groups, and either vectors or spinors of the SO(2n) groups. Our results may shed additional light on the S-duality between heterotic and type-I strings in four dimensions. As a spin-off we obtain an SO(10) GUT model with four generations from the Z4 orbifold.

description: Abstract: We used the extreme gradient boosting (XGB) algorithm to predict the experimental solubility of chemical compounds in water and organic solvents and to select significant molecular descriptors. The accuracy of prediction of our forward stepwise top-importance XGB (FSTI-XGB) on curated solubility data sets in terms of RMSE was found to be 0.59–0.76 Log(S) for two water data sets, while for organic solvent data sets it was 0.69–0.79 Log(S) for the Methanol data set, 0.65–0.79 for the Ethanol data set, and 0.62–0.70 Log(S) for the Acetone data set. That was the first step. In the second step, we used uncurated and curated AquaSolDB data sets for applicability domain (AD) tests of Drugbank, PubChem, and COCONUT databases and determined that more than 95% of studied ca. 500,000 compounds were within the AD. In the third step, we applied conformal prediction to obtain narrow prediction intervals and we successfully validated them using test sets’ true solubility values. With prediction intervals obtained in the last fourth step, we were able to estimate individual error margins and the accuracy class of the solubility prediction for molecules within the AD of three public databases. All that was possible without the knowledge of experimental database solubilities. We find these four steps novel because usually, solubility-related works only study the first step or the first two steps.

description: Cryptocrystal layers of ammonium silicon fluoride (NH4)2SiF6 were grown on silicon wafers by dry etching using the vapors of HF:HNO3 solution at room temperature. As-grown layers are composed of white granular crystalline film with thicknesses of up to 8 micrometer which were synthesized with growth rates of around 1 micron/hour. The crystallinity was analysed by X-ray diffraction which indicates an isometric hexoctahedral system(4/m -32/m) with Fm3m space grouping of (NH4)2SiF6 cryptohalite crystals. These results have been confirmed by the presence of the vibrational absorption bands of (NH4)2SiF6 species by FTIR transmission. Strong absorption bands were observed in the infrared at 480cm-1, 725cm-1, 1433cm-1 and 3327cm-1 and assigned to N-H and Si-F related vibrational modes of (NH4)2SiF6. Annealing above 150oC leads to the formation of individual crystals with sizes up to 20 micrometer on the surface, thus indicating the posibility of forming solid compound layers with fine grain sizes on silicon.

description: We show that all triples $(x_1,x_2,x_3)$ of singular moduli satisfying $x_1 x_2 x_3 \in \mathbb{Q}^{\times}$ are "trivial". That is, either $x_1, x_2, x_3 \in \mathbb{Q}$; some $x_i \in \mathbb{Q}$ and the remaining $x_j, x_k$ are distinct, of degree $2$, and conjugate over $\mathbb{Q}$; or $x_1, x_2, x_3$ are pairwise distinct, of degree $3$, and conjugate over $\mathbb{Q}$. This theorem is best possible and is the natural three dimensional analogue of a result of Bilu, Luca, and Pizarro-Madariaga in two dimensions. It establishes an explicit version of the André--Oort conjecture for the family of subvarieties $V_α \subset \mathbb{C}^3$ defined by an equation $x_1 x_2 x_3 = α\in \mathbb{Q}$.
description: 14 pages. Version 2 contains a significant strengthening of the main result; we exclude all but the "trivial" cases of triples with rational product

description: In the framework of the paper analysis was conducted on a group of companies of the food industry for the year 2011. The aim of the analysis was to compare the efficiency scores obtained using traditional financial indices, and the frontier approaches like the SFA method (the SFA – Stochastic Frontier Analysis). As a classical measure of efficiency financial ratios the ROA and the ROS were used. These indices were chosen because of the convergence of variables used in the ROA and the ROS as well in the SFA models. The obtained results showed a slight correlation of the ROA and efficiency scores obtained using the SFA method.

description: We study strongly coupled lattice QCD with $N$ colors of staggered fermions in 3+1 dimensions. While mean field theory describes the low temperature behavior of this theory at large $N$, it fails in the scaling region close to the finite temperature second order chiral phase transition. The universal critical region close to the phase transition belongs to the 3d XY universality class even when $N$ becomes large. This is in contrast to Gross-Neveu models where the critical region shrinks as $N$ (the number of flavors) increases and mean field theory is expected to describe the phase transition exactly in the limit of infinite $N$. Our work demonstrates that close to second order phase transitions infrared fluctuations can sometimes be important even when $N$ is strictly infinite.

description: The study aimed at assessing the awareness concerning the qualities of tomatoes and their products, as well as the frequency and determinants of their consumption by the students of the University of Life Sciences in Lublin. The respondents included 108 female and 122 male students. Statistical analyses (the test and the Kruskal-Wallis test) revealed some differentiation in that awareness, depending on the sex and place of residence. Women and residents of towns of up to 50,000 inhabitants revealed a higher level of awareness, as compared with men and residents of villages and towns with more than 50,000 inhabitants. Students with a higher level of knowledge regarding the composition of tomatoes and their effect on human organism consume tomato products more frequently and verify the content of packaging labels.

description: While plums are widely touted for their health benefits, there is little data available on the levels of beneficial anthocyanins and other antioxidative compounds found in commercial Australian plums. As such, this study aims to provide context data on the typical levels and variation in plums available to consumers. Six commercial plum varieties were sourced from Central Queensland grocery stores, including two varieties developed and grown exclusively in Australia – Croc Egg and “King Midas” yellow plums – as well as four varieties grown both in Australia and internationally: black, Dapple Dandy, red and sugar plums. These were analyzed for antioxidants, phenolics, anthocyanins and mineral contents. Significant differences between varieties were observed in the levels of total phenolics (65–160 mg gallic acid equivalents 100 g−1 on a fresh weight basis), antioxidants (cupric reducing antioxidant potential of 174–542 mg Trolox equivalents 100 g−1) and anthocyanins (0.3–21.5 mg cyanidin-3-glucoside equivalents 100 g−1), as well as in the flavonols quercetin (0.02–0.15 mg 100 g−1) and quercetin-3-glucoside (0.21–2.87 mg 100 g−1). Mid-infrared attenuated total reflectance (MIR-ATR) spectroscopy combined with principal component analysis could separate varieties based on their phytochemical composition. The findings suggest that commercially available Australian plums contain similar levels of health-benefitting compounds to those found internationally, although the levels of these compounds depend strongly on the considered variety.

description: The clonal propagation of T. cacao by somatic embryogenesis (SE) is a promising approach to multiply elite genotypes. Assessing clonal fidelity in plants regenerated from somatic embryos is the first step toward ensuring genetic uniformity in the mass production of planting material. This study assessed the genetic stability of cacao plantlets propagated by SE and conventional grafting for genotypes CCN51 and TSH565 using 13 SSR. The leaves of in vitro plantlets (IVL) were collected from 6-month-old plants and leaves of field plants (FPL) were selected from 3-year-old trees. The 13 analyzed loci revealed 25 alleles in genotype CCN51 and 24 alleles in genotype TSH565. The highest PIC value was observed for all SSR, only mTcCIR8 and mTcUNICAMP09 were intermediate, with PIC values of less than 0.250. IVL and FPL populations were genetically equal. According to the results, no differences in allelic composition were observed between FPL and IVL in each genotype. This indicates that plants propagated by SE did not show perceptible detriment to their genome with the used SSR. In addition, Jaccard’s coefficient showed more than a 91% similarity for TSH565 and 92% for CCN51. The UPGMA and PCA showed that the populations tended to group within two genotypes. The SSR results obtained do not exclude the occurrence of other changes in the nuclear genome. However, considering the morphological stability of in vitro propagated plants, the results indicate that the protocol used is suitable and efficient for large scale, true-to-type propagation of genotypes CCN51 and TSH565 for commercial purposes.

description: PSR B1259-63 is a gamma-ray binary system hosting a radio pulsar orbiting around a O9.5Ve star, LS 2883, with a period of ~3.4 years. The interaction of the pulsar wind with the LS 2883 outflow leads to unpulsed broad band emission in the radio, X-rays, GeV and TeV domains. While the radio, X-ray and TeV light curves show rather similar behaviour, the GeV light curve appears very different with a huge outburst about a month after a periastron. The energy release during this outburst seems to significantly exceed the spin down luminosity of the pulsar and the GeV light curve and energy release varies from one orbit to the next. In this paper we present for the first time the results of optical observations of the system in 2017, and also reanalyze the available X-ray and GeV data. We present a new model in which the GeV data are explained as a combination of the bremsstrahlung and inverse Compton emission from the unshocked and weakly shocked electrons of the pulsar wind. The X-ray and TeV emission is produced by synchrotron and inverse Compton emission of energetic electrons accelerated on a strong shock arising due to stellar/pulsar winds collision. The brightness of the GeV flare is explained in our model as a beaming effect of the energy released in a cone oriented, during the time of flare, in the direction of the observer.

description: Egypt is considered one of the main producers of date fruits in the world. Tamr dry date is widely cultivated in Upper Egypt, however, investigating the chemical components and biological activities of such common variety has not been performed yet. In this study, the chemical components of the Tamr variety and its biological activities were investigated. Results showed that the percentages of sugar, dietary fibers, metal, protein were 61.0%, 13.7%, 2.1, and 2.6%, respectively. Total phenolic and flavonoids were 17.6 and 2.3 mg/100 g, respectively. 17 amino acids, 8 metals, 15 fatty acids, 30 terpenes, vitamins (A, B1, B2, B3), and 5 flavonoids were identified. The presence of phenolics and flavonoids in ethyl acetate extract resulted in high biological activity than chloroform and methanolic extracts. The biological activity of chloroform extract could be ascribed to the presence of polyunsaturated fatty acids and terpenes. These results are in good agreement with the chemical-biological relationships.

Special attention has been paid to the state of Polish producers price advantage relative to the EU’s main competitors, ie the largest manufacturers and exporters of meat and meat products in the European Union. The study covered the years 2008-2013. In creating competitive advantages in the Polish meat sector prices play an important role. This is indicated by both the analysis of market prices of basic products of the meat sector, which are lower in Poland than in the EU countries, as well as the analysis of prices in the following link of food chain. In the future, it is expected that Polish meat producers manage to maintain a price advantage in the EU market, however their level will be systematically reduced.

description: Recent thermal Hall experiment pumped new energy into the problem of $ν=5/2$ quantum Hall effect, which motivated novel interpretations based on formation of mesoscopic puddles made of Pfaffian and anti-Pfaffian topological orders. Here, we study an interface between the Pfaffian and anti-Pfaffian states, which may play crucial roles in thermal transport, by means of state-of-the-art density-matrix renormalization group simulations on the cylinder geometry. We provide compelling evidences that indicate the edge modes of the Pfaffian and anti-Pfaffian state strongly hybridize with each other around the interface. Moreover, we demonstrate an intrinsic electric dipole moment emerges at the interface, similar to the "p-n" junction sandwiched between N-type and P-type semiconductor. Importantly, we elucidate the topological origin of this dipole moment, whose formation is to counterbalance the mismatch of guiding-center Hall viscosity of bulk Pfaffian and anti-Pfaffian state.

description: In this paper, we develop a model to describe the generalized wave-particle instability in a quasi-neutral plasma. We analyze the quasi-linear diffusion equation for particles by expressing an arbitrary unstable and resonant wave mode as a Gaussian wave packet, allowing for an arbitrary direction of propagation with respect to the background magnetic field. We show that the localized energy density of the Gaussian wave packet determines the velocity-space range in which the dominant wave-particle instability and counter-acting damping contributions are effective. Moreover, we derive a relation describing the diffusive trajectories of resonant particles in velocity space under the action of such an interplay between the wave-particle instability and damping. For the numerical computation of our theoretical model, we develop a mathematical approach based on the Crank-Nicolson scheme to solve the full quasi-linear diffusion equation. Our numerical analysis solves the time evolution of the velocity distribution function under the action of a dominant wave-particle instability and counteracting damping and shows a good agreement with our theoretical description. As an application, we use our model to study the oblique fast-magnetosonic/whistler instability, which is proposed as a scattering mechanism for strahl electrons in the solar wind. In addition, we numerically solve the full Fokker-Planck equation to compute the time evolution of the electron-strahl distribution function under the action of Coulomb collisions with core electrons and protons after the collisionless action of the oblique fast-magnetosonic/whistler instability.

description: This study explores the experiences of five families as their children transfer from primary to secondary school, and is based on the words of the parents. The sample children live and attend school in different parts of Northern Ireland and each carries a medical diagnosis of dyspraxia and has been identified within school as having special educational needs. The study is based on the words of the parents. The research strategy employed was experiental case study. An emancipatory approach was followed using face-to-face unstructured interviews to generate data. Analysis began after the first data collection and was progressive. This facilitated the desire for depth as opposed to width and allowed for issues to emerge from the data. Analysis is from a Foucauldian perspective. Within the text I discuss the relevance of Foucault’s discourses to the construction of the identity. I describe how it is my understanding that both professionals and parents are limited by the identities inscribed on the political surface of their body by disciplinary power. This inscription tends individuals to conformity to the single truth of the dominant power through hierarchical observation, normalisation and the examination. I argue that power is weighted in favour of the professionals. However, I assert that this weighting is not because of professional expertise in its own right, but rather comes from the administrative role that professionals fulfil within the bureaucracy of the State. Finally, as I found Foucault’s philosophies wanting in terms of resistance to the inscription of identity, I turn to the writings of Deleuze and Guattari and their concept of ‘becoming other’ as a means to empowerment. The study is based in the area of parent/professional partnership.
Planning and implementation of sustainable stormwater management systems in the City of Vancouver : the green roof example
Creators: name: Lancaster, Thomas
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: Imagine a city that utilizes the rain that falls on it as a resource instead of managing it as a waste. This city is planned, designed and engineered in ways that help to preserve and bolster the ecosystem within which it sits. The costs to the taxpayer are lower than other municipalities that have preserved the status quo of managing their stormwater. The city itself is less reliant on inputs of materials and energy from outside its borders. The people who live in this city are more cognizant of their natural environment, understand the meaning of developing sustainably and experience less of the "concrete jungle" than do people in other contemporary cities. The planners, designers, engineers and decisionmakers use stormwater management as a tool to achieve a more sustainable city that is reflective of local ecological functions, as well as global materials and energy availability. In this thesis, the stormwater management contributions to achieving such a reality in Vancouver, British Columbia are investigated, while a framework for applying sustainable stormwater management systems to this and other contexts is constructed. Data and information are gathered through literature review, case study and interviews. The results of the study illustrate a more sustainable and integrated stormwater management framework and suggest that it is possible to incrementally shift the system towards this over time. The study also shows that it can be more ecologically and economically sustainable to do so. While there appear to be many opportunities for this shift to sustainable stormwater management systems, there are also significant, yet surmountable, institutional and epistemological barriers that must be addressed.

Polarimetric Calibration of Large-Aperture Telescopes I: The Beam-Expansion Method
Creators: name: Socas-Navarro, H.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: This paper describes a concept for the high-accuracy absolute calibration of the instrumental polarization introduced by the primary mirror of a large-aperture telescope. This procedure requires a small aperture with polarization calibration optics (e.g., mounted on the dome) followed by a lens that opens the beam to illuminate the entire surface of the mirror. The Jones matrix corresponding to this calibration setup (with a diverging incident beam) is related to that of the normal observing setup (with a collimated incident beam) by an approximate correction term. Numerical models of parabolic on-axis and off-axis mirrors with surface imperfections are used to explore its accuracy.

description: This paper analyses the adoption of organic farming under fair trade marketing practices and its impact on household income of black pepper (piper nigrum) farmers in India. We use a set of panel data, collected from 300 smallholder farmers who plant black pepper as their main crop in 2010 and 2011.The aim of the paper is to investigate the use of panel data for adoption models using the case of organic and fair trade certified black pepper in Idukki district, Kerala, India. We compare two adoption models: (i) a multinomial cross-section logit applied for both survey years separately and (ii) a panel multinomial random effects logit model. The panel adoption model which allows capturing unobserved heterogeneity in adoption decisions was found to be superior over the cross section models. We find that farm size and market distance are the major factors that influence adoption. To measure the differential gain of adop-tion, we applied propensity score matching with multiple treatment effects accompanied by sensitivity analysis to test robustness of impact results. Results show that certified organic farmers have a significantly higher income but participation in fair trade regimes does not generate additional monetary benefits.
Christina C. Benson and Bashar Malkawi, Iraq Back on Track: The Case for Expediting WTO Accession of “Fragile and Conflict Affected” (“FCA”) Countries

description: This paper advocates that the World Trade Organization (“WTO”) should revise the accession process for countries classified by the World Bank as “Fragile and Conflict Affected” (“FCA”), in order to expedite the accession timeline and allow more expansive concessions, transition times, and technical assistance, similar to the terms of accession currently applied to Least Developed Countries (“LDCs”). Specifically, WTO should permit FCA countries recovering from crisis, genocide, natural disaster, or other severe unrest, to take advantage of the more flexible “special and differential treatment” accession provisions typically accorded to LDCs in the existing WTO system, while also providing enhanced “trade-related technical assistance” (TRTA) programming to such FCA countries to speed their accession process. This paper describes the WTO accession challenges faced by Iraq as a case study in why expediting WTO membership of FCAs is a critically important way to help such countries attract new investment and encourage economic growth and diversification of economies that tend to rely heavily in single commodities such as oil.

Feature Extraction Techniques for the Analysis of Spectral Polarization Profiles
Creators: name: Socas-Navarro, H.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: This paper introduces a novel feature extraction technique for the analysis of spectral line Stokes profiles. The procedure is based on the use of an auto-associative artificial neural network containing non-linear hidden layers. The neural network extracts a small subset of parameters from the profiles (features), from which it is then able to reconstruct the original profile. This new approach is compared to two other procedures that have been proposed in previous works, namely principal component analysis and Hermitian function expansions. Depending on the target application, each one of these three techniques has some advantages and disadvantages, which are discussed here.

description: Vegetables are sources of vitamins, minerals and income for those involved in production and marketing. Having first-hand information about vegetable production and marketing system is essential to devise appropriate strategies aimed at enhancing vegetable value chain development. It was in line with this view that a study was conducted to characterize vegetable production and marketing systems at selected sites in the humid tropics of Ethiopia. Data were collected using participatory primary survey techniques augmented with secondary data. While the area cultivated to vegetables has been increasing over the years due to increasing consumer demand, average yields are far below potential. Major vegetable production and marketing constraints include: lack of access to improved variety seeds, high postharvest losses, lack of reliable market information systems, low bargaining power of farmers, low technological know-how for value chain development and upgrading, all indicating critical areas of intervention. Increasing public awareness the nutritional importance of vegetables will critically help in reducing malnutrition while increasing smallholder household income.

description: We argue that a key challenge in enabling usable and useful interactive task learning for intelligent agents is to facilitate effective Human-AI collaboration. We reflect on our past 5 years of efforts on designing, developing and studying the SUGILITE system, discuss the issues on incorporating recent advances in AI with HCI principles in mixed-initiative interactions and multi-modal interactions, and summarize the lessons we learned. Lastly, we identify several challenges and opportunities, and describe our ongoing work
Phenomenological dynamics of COVID-19 pandemic: meta-analysis for adjustment parameters

description: We present a phenomenological procedure of dealing with the COVID--19 data provided by government health agencies of eleven different countries. Instead of using the (exact or approximate) solutions to the SIR (or other) model(s) to fit the data by adjusting the time--independent parameters included in those models, we introduce dynamical parameters whose time--dependence may be phenomenologically obtained by adequately extrapolating a chosen subset of the daily provided data. This phenomenological approach works extremely well to properly adjust the number of infected (and removed) individuals in time, for the countries we consider. Besides, it can handle the sub--epidemic events that some countries may experience. In this way, we obtain the evolution of the pandemic without using any a priori model based on differential equations.

description: Smallholder maize cultivation is prevalent in the marginal areas of India, under diverse agro-climatic conditions. Abiotic stress tolerant maize cultivars are expected to be highly beneficial in reducing the production risks and enhancing farmer livelihoods, especially in the face of climate change. Nevertheless, the adoption and production risk implications of any of the crop varietal technologies in the marginal areas of India have not been widely examined. In this paper, we analyse the case of hybrid maize adoption, using data from a survey of 340 maize-growing households from three stressprone regions in India. Hybrid maize adoption varies from 33% to 99% in these locations. A probit model is used to assess the factors determining adoption. The outcomes of hybrid maize adoption are examined in terms of yield and profitability, employing mean-variance analysis. We find a clear superiority of the hybrid technology with respect to yield enhancement, per-unit cost reduction and risk reduction only in one of the study locations. Our findings indicate significant economic potentials for developing abiotic stress tolerant maize cultivars for India’s marginal environments.
