description: This paper qualitatively explores the prospects to restore compliance with EU law against the rigid and eminently strong resistance of the affected member states. An empirical study of Court cases on incorrect legal transposition of EC directives in Germany and the UK reveals that states give in to the European prosecutors early in some cases, but maintain non-compliance for a longer period in others. This paper demonstrates that policy variables such as the interpretational scope of the disputed element, domestic norms, the organizational degree of organized interests, and the strength of domestic non-compliance constituencies influence the settlement dynamics of hard cases.

description: A one-kilometer-diameter carbonate/hydrate mound in Mississippi Canyon Block 118 has been chosen to be the site of a multi-sensor, multi-discipline sea-floor observatory. Several surveys have been carried out in preparation for installing the observatory. The resulting data set permits discussing the mound’s structure in some detail. Samples from the water column and intact hydrate outcrops show gas associated with the mound to be thermogenic. Lithologic and bio-geochemical studies have been done on sediment samples from gravity and box cores. Pore-fluid analyses carried out on these cores reveal that microbial sulfate reduction, anaerobic methane oxidation, and methanogenesis are important processes in the upper sediment. These microbial processes control the diffusive flux of methane into the overlying water column. The activity of microbes is also focused within patches near active vents. This is primarily dependent upon an active flux of hydrocarbon-rich fluids. The geochemical evidence suggests that the fluid flux waxes and wanes over time and that the microbial activity is sensitive to such change. Swath bathymetry by AUV combined with sea-floor video provides sub-meter resolution of features on the surface of the mound. Seismic reflection profiling with source-signature processing resolves layer thicknesses within the upper 200-300m of sediment to about a meter. Exploration-scale 3-D seismic imaging shows that a network of faults connects the mound to a salt diapir a few hundred meters below. Analyses of gases from fluid vents and hydrate outcrops imply that the faults act as migration conduits for hydrocarbons from a deep, hot reservoir. Source-signature-processed seismic traces provide normal-incidence reflection coefficients at 30,000 locations over the mound. Picking reflection horizons at each location allows a 3-D model of the mound’s interior to be constructed. This model provides a basis for understanding the movement of fluids within the mound.

description: In 1924, Einstein received a short manuscript in the mail from the Indian physicist S.N. Bose. He quickly translated Bose's manuscript to German and submitted it to Zeitschrift für Physik. Within a few weeks, Einstein presented his own findings (using a generalization of Bose's counting method) to a session of the Prussian Academy of Sciences. Whereas Bose had suggested a new counting method for the quanta of the electromagnetic field -- one that yielded Planck's blackbody radiation formula -- Einstein applied Bose's method to an ideal monoatomic gas. Shortly afterward, Einstein presented to the Academy a follow-up paper in which he described the Bose-Einstein condensation for the first time. The present paper describes some of the fascinating issues that Einstein struggled with as he attempted to unify the quantum-statistical properties of matter with those of the electromagnetic field.

description: A key theme in capital markets research examines the relationships between accounting information and firm value. Two concerns relating to the value relevance of accounting information are: (1) concerns over the explanatory and predictive power of the evidence presented in the prior literature (Lev, 1989); and (2) the evidence of a deterioration in the association between accounting information and stock prices over the past four decades (Collins, Maydew and Weiss, 1997; Francis and Schipper, 1999; Lev and Zarowin, 1999). These concerns provide the key motivation for this thesis which examines: (1) the usefulness of the clean surplus accounting equation in valuation; (2) the role of accounting information in estimating and predicting systematic risk and; (3) the changing nature of the relationship between accounting information, stock prices and risk over time. The empirical research provides evidence of the value-irrelevance of the clean surplus equation and that controlling for the functional form of the earnings-returns relationship is more important. Evidence is also provided that accounting variables are highly associated with M-GARCH risk betas and also possess predictive ability relative to these risk measures. Finally, the relationships between stock prices, risk models and accounting information are shown to have not deteriorated over time, contrary to prior evidence. Rather, the functional form of the relationship has changed from linear to a non-linear arctan association. Overall, accounting information continues to play the central role in the determination of stock prices and risk metrics.

description: The pion transition form factor $G(q^2)$ is computed on the entire domain of spacelike and timelike momenta using a quantum field theory continuum approach. In analytical continuation of the function $G(Q^2)$ we utilized the Gauge Technique with the quark propagator determined from Minkowski space solution of QCD Dyson-Schwinger equations. The scale is set up by the phenomena of dynamical chiral symmetry breaking, which is a striking feature of low energy QCD.

description: More than four decades ago, Eisenbud, Khimšiašvili, and Levine introduced an analogue in the algebro-geometric setting of the notion of local degree from differential topology. Their notion of degree, which we call the EKL-degree, can be thought of as a refinement of the usual notion of local degree in algebraic geometry that works over non-algebraically closed base fields, taking values in the Grothendieck-Witt ring. In this note, we compute the EKL-degree at the origin of certain finite covers $f\colon \mathbb{A}^n\to \mathbb{A}^n$ induced by quotients under actions of Weyl groups. We use knowledge of the cohomology ring of partial flag varieties as a key input in our proofs, and our computations give interesting explicit examples in the field of $\mathbb{A}^1$-enumerative geometry.

Using this perspective, we generalize some classical results of Cartan and Nomizu to invariant connections on algebroids. This has fundamental consequences for the theory of numerical integrators, giving a characterization of the spaces on which Butcher and Lie-Butcher series methods, which generalize Runge-Kutta methods, may be applied.

Under general conditions, we show that the orbifold of a given unitary rational conformal field theories generates a unitary modular category. Many new unitary modular categories are obtained. We also show that the irreducible representations of orbifolds of rank one lattice vertex operator algebras give rise to unitary modular categories and determine the corresponding modular matrices, which has been conjectured for some time.

 Remarks. Chondrilla caribensis has two intraspecific forms: forma caribensis mainly distributed in the mangroves habitat, and generally grayish to chestnut and purplish-brown color, and forma hermatypica mainly distributed in coral reef areas, distinguished by a yellowish brown to olive color and lighter areolas surrounding the oscules (Rützler et al. 2007a). Although both forms share similar sizes of spherasters, forma caribensis has spherasters with microspination on the tips, and hermatypica lacks the microspination. To distinguish between both forms it is necessary to examine SEM micrographs.
 Up to now, C. caribensis has been reported it the northern sector of the GoM (Rützler et al. 2007a) and in the Campeche Bank reef by Ugalde et al. (2015).

description: We present three-frequency VLA observations of the flocculent spiral galaxy NGC 4414 made in order to study the magnetic field structure in absence of strong density wave flows. NGC 4414 shows a regular spiral pattern of observed polarization B-vectors with a radial component comparable in strength to the azimuthal one. The average pitch angle of the magnetic field is about 20$\degr$, similar to galaxies with a well-defined spiral pattern. This provides support for field generation by a turbulent dynamo without significant ``contamination'' from streaming motions in spiral arms. While the stellar light is very axisymmetric, the magnetic field structure shows a clear asymmetry with a stronger regular field and a smaller magnetic pitch angle in the northern disk. Extremely strong Faraday rotation is measured in the southern part of the disk, becoming Faraday thick at 6cm. The distribution of Faraday rotation suggests a mixture of axisymmetric and higher-mode magnetic fields. The strong Faraday effects in the southern region suggest a much thicker magnetoionic disk and a higher content of diffuse ionized gas than in the northern disk portion. An elongation of the 20cm total power emission is also seen towards the South. Although NGC 4414 is currently an isolated spiral, the asymmetries in the polarized radio emission may be sensitive tracers of previous encounters, including weak interactions which would chiefly affect the diffuse gas component without generating obvious long-term perturbations in the optical structure.

description: The global trends in the construction of modern structures require the integration of sensors together with data recording and analysis modules so that their integrity can be continuously monitored for safe-life, economic and ecological reasons. This process of measuring and analyzing the data from a distributed sensor network all over a structural system in order to quantify its condition is known as structural health monitoring (SHM). Guided ultrasonic wave-based techniques are increasingly being adapted and used in several SHM systems which benefit from built-in transduction, large inspection ranges, and high sensitivity to small flaws. Nonetheless, for the design of a trustworthy health monitoring system, a vast amount of information regarding the inherent physical characteristics of the sources and their propagation and interaction across the structure is crucial. Moreover, any SHM system which is expected to transition to field operation must take into account the influence of environmental and operational changes which cause modifications in the stiffness and damping of the structure and consequently modify its dynamic behaviour. On that account, special attention is paid in this paper to the development of an efficient SHM methodology where robust signal processing and pattern recognition techniques are integrated for the correct interpretation of complex ultrasonic waves within the context of damage detection and identification. The methodology is based on an acousto-ultrasonics technique where the discrete wavelet transform is evaluated for feature extraction and selection, linear principal component analysis for data-driven modelling and selforganizing maps for a two-level clustering under the principle of local density. At the end, the methodology is experimentally demonstrated and results show that all the damages were detectable and identifiable.

description: The exploration of long-lived particles in the MeV-GeV region is a formidable task but it may provide us a unique access to dark sectors. Fixed-target facilities with sufficiently energetic and intense proton beams are an ideal tool for this challenge. In this work we show that the production rate of Axion-Like-Particles (ALPs) coupled pre-dominantly to photons receives a significant contribution from daughter-photons of secondary $π^0$ and $η$ mesons created in the proton shower. We carefully compare the PYTHIA simulated spectra of such secondaries to experimental literature, compute the ALP flux from the Primakoff conversion of these photons, and finally revisit existing limits on ALPs and update the prospects for a set of existing and future searches. Our results show that taking this production mechanism into account significantly enhances the sensitivity compared to previous studies based on coherent ALP production in primary proton-nucleus interactions.

description: Detection of material inhomogeneities is an important task in magnetic imaging and plays a significant role in understanding physical processes. For example, in spintronics, the sample heterogeneity determines the onset of current-driven magnetization motion. While often a significant effort is made in enhancing the resolution of an experimental technique to obtain a deeper insight into the physical properties, here we want to emphasize that an advantageous data analysis has the potential to provide a lot more insight into given data set, in particular when being close to the resolution limit where the noise becomes at least of the same order as the signal. In this work, we introduce two tools - the average latent dimension and average latent entropy - which allow for the detection of very subtle material inhomogeneity patterns in the data. For example, for the Ising model, we show that these tools are able to resolve exchange differences down to $1\%$. For a micromagnetic model, we demonstrate that the latent entropy can be used to detect changes in the easy axis anisotropy from magnetization data. We show that the latent entropy remains robust when imposing noise on the data, changing less than $0.3\%$ after adding Gaussian noise of the same amplitude as the signal. Furthermore, we demonstrate that these data-driven tools can be used to visualize inhomogeneities based on MOKE data of magnetic whirls and thereby can help to explicitly resolve impurities and pinning centers. To evaluate the performance of the average latent dimension and entropy, we show that they outperform common instruments ranging from standard statistics measures to state-of-the-art data analysis techniques such as Gaussian mixture models not only in recognition quality but also in the required computational cost.

description: Teaching performance engineering in high-performance computing (HPC) requires example codes that demonstrate bottlenecks and enable hands-on optimization. However, existing HPC applications and proxy apps often lack the balance of simplicity, transparency, and optimization potential needed for effective teaching. To address this, we developed cfdSCOPE, a compact, open-source computational fluid dynamics (CFD) proxy app specifically designed for educational purposes. cfdSCOPE simulates flow in a 3D volume using sparse linear algebra, a common HPC workload, and comprises fewer than 1,100 lines of code. Its minimal dependencies and transparent design ensure students can fully control and optimize performance-critical aspects, while its naive OpenMP parallelization provides significant optimization opportunities, thus making it an ideal tool for teaching performance engineering.

description: We study the fluctuations that are predicted in the autocorrelation function of an energy eigenstate of a chaotic, two-dimensional billiard by the conjecture (due to Berry) that the eigenfunction is a gaussian random variable. We find an explicit formula for the root-mean-square amplitude of the expected fluctuations in the autocorrelation function. These fluctuations turn out to be $O(\hbar^{1/2})$ in the small $\hbar$ (high energy) limit. For comparison, any corrections due to scars from isolated periodic orbits would also be $O(\hbar^{1/2})$. The fluctuations take on a particularly simple form if the autocorrelation function is averaged over the direction of the separation vector. We compare our various predictions with recent numerical computations of Li and Robnik for the Robnik billiard, and find good agreement. We indicate how our results generalize to higher dimensions.

description: Focusing on the Euro-Mediterranean relations since the early 1990s, this paper investigates in how far the EU has been able to shape its relations with third countries according to its democracy promotion policy. The paper traces the evolution of the EU’s provisions for democracy promotion and compares the implementation of political dialogue and democracy assistance with seven (semi-)authoritarian regimes (Algeria, Egypt, Jordan, Lebanon, Morocco, Syria, and Tunisia) since the early 1990s. A clear regional trend to more intensive cooperation lends credibility to the claim that the EU possesses a certain agenda setting power in international relations. A systematic comparison across countries and over time explores the explanatory power of interdependence, political liberalisation, and statehood for the remaining country variation. The paper finds that the degree of political liberalisation in target countries is the most important scope condition for cooperation in the field of democracy promotion and points to the need of further investigating (domestic) factors to account for the EU’s differential ‘normative power’ in international relations.
THE DEVELOPMENT PATH FOR HYDRATE NATURAL GAS
Creators: name: Johnson, Arthur H.
Publisher: name: The University of British Columbia
Year: 2008

description: The question of when gas hydrate will become a commercially viable resource most concerns those nations with the most severe energy deficiencies. With the vast potential attributed to gas hydrate as a new gas play, the interest is understandable. Yet the resource potential of gas hydrate has persistently remained just over the horizon. Technical and economic hurdles have pushed back the timeline for development, yet considerable progress has been made in the past five years. An important lesson learned is that an analysis of the factors that control the formation of high grade hydrate deposits must be carried out so that both exploration and recovery scenarios can be modeled and engineered. Commercial hydrate development requires high concentrations of hydrate in porous, permeable reservoirs. It is only from such deposits that gas may be recovered in commercial quantities. While it is unrealistic to consider the global potential of gas hydrate to be in the hundreds of thousands of tcfs, there is a strong potential in the hundreds of tcfs or thousands of tcfs. Press releases from several National gas hydrate research programs have reported gas hydrate “discoveries”. These are, in fact, hydrate shows that provide proof of the presence of hydrate where it may previously only have been predicted. Except in a few isolated areas, valid resource assessments remain to be accomplished through the identification of suitable hosts for hydrate concentrations such as sandstone reservoirs. A focused exploration effort based on geological and depositional characteristics is needed that addresses hydrate as part of a larger petroleum system. Simply drilling in areas that have identifiable bottom simulating reflectors (BSRs) is unlikely to be a viable exploration tool. It is very likely that with drilling on properly identified targets, commercial development could become a reality in less than a decade.

description: Verma modules of superconfomal algebras can have singular vector spaces with dimensions greater than 1. Following a method developed for the Virasoro algebra by Kent, we introduce the concept of adapted orderings on superconformal algebras. We prove several general results on the ordering kernels associated to the adapted orderings and show that the size of an ordering kernel implies an upper limit for the dimension of a singular vector space. We apply this method to the topological N=2 algebra and obtain the maximal dimensions of the singular vector spaces in the topological Verma modules: 0, 1, 2 or 3 depending on the type of Verma module and the type of singular vector. As a consequence we prove the conjecture of Gato-Rivera and Rosado on the possible existing types of topological singular vectors (4 in chiral Verma modules and 29 in complete Verma modules). Interestingly, we have found two-dimensional spaces of singular vectors at level 1. Finally, by using the topological twists and the spectral flows, we also obtain the maximal dimensions of the singular vector spaces for the Neveu-Schwarz N=2 algebra (0, 1 or 2) and for the Ramond N=2 algebra (0, 1, 2 or 3).

title: Evaluating the Effectiveness of Stormwater Quality Improvement Devices (SQIDs) in Sub-Tropical Conditions

description: Stormwater quality improvement devices (SQIDs) are frequently installed to improve the water quality of runoff to match particular water quality objectives (WQOs). However, there is a lack of data to evaluate the functioning and performance of these systems, particularly in sub-tropical climates. The primary aim of this study was to collect such data. Another aim was to establish baseline monitoring of an urban catchment before the installation of SQIDs and to forecast the improvement to the water quality after installation. This study investigates the performance of two SQIDs (a pond and wetland) within a treatment train that has been retrofitted into a sub-tropical urban catchment (Waterbird Park) on the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia. The method used to evaluate the effectiveness of this system was through rainfall events, sampling of the inlets to the pond, its outlet and the outlet of the wetland. Sampling was conducted through the use of automatic sampling devices, before the retrofit, during the construction phase and after the construction of the treatment train. A secondary study was conducted on a separate catchment, (Discovery Park), in which no SQIDs were installed. The Discovery Park site was used as a baseline study, where the objective was to estimate the likely improvement that a lake and wetland treatment train would have at that site.

description: We study the combinatorics of Gröbner degenerations of Grassmannians and the Schubert varieties inside them. We provide a family of binomial ideals whose combinatorics is governed by tableaux induced by matching fields in the sense of Sturmfels and Zelevinsky. We prove that these ideals are all quadratically generated and they yield a SAGBI basis of the Plücker algebra. This leads to a new family of toric degenerations of Grassmannians. Moreover, we apply our results to construct a family of Gröbner degenerations of Schubert varieties inside Grassmannians. We provide a complete characterization of toric ideals among these degenerations in terms of the combinatorics of matching fields, permutations, and semi-standard tableaux.

description: A simple procedure to obtain complete, closed expressions for Lie algebra invariants is presented. The invariants are ultimately polynomials in the group parameters. The construction of finite group elements require the use of projectors, whose coefficients are invariant polynomials. The detailed general forms of these projectors are given. Closed expressions for finite Lorentz transformations, both homogeneous and inhomogeneous, as well as for Galilei transformations, are found as examples.
