description: We discuss a toy model in six dimensions that predicts two fermion generations, natural mass hierarchy and intergenerational mixing. Matter is described by vector-like six dimensional fermions, one per each irreducible standard model representation. Two fermion generations arise from the compactification mechanism, through orbifold projection. They are localized in different regions of the compact space by a six dimensional mass term. Flavour symmetry is broken via Yukawa couplings, with a Higgs vacuum expectation value not constant in the extra space. A hierarchical spectrum is obtained from order one dimensionless parameters of the six dimensional theory. The Cabibbo angle arises from the soft breaking of six dimensional parity symmetry. We also briefly discuss how the present model could be extended to cover the realistic case.

description: We study gluon production in high energy proton-nucleus collisions in the semi-classical framework of the Color Glass Condensate. We develop a general formalism to compute gluon fields in covariant gauge to lowest order in the classical field of the proton and to all orders in the classical field of the nucleus. The use of the covariant gauge makes the diagrammatic interpretation of the solution more transparnt. k_t-factorization holds to this order for gluon production -- Our results for the gluon distribution are equivalent to the prior diagrammatic analysis of Kovchegov and Mueller. We also show that these results are equivalent to the computation of gluon production by Dumitru and McLerran in the Fock-Schwinger gauge. We demonstrate how the Cronin effect arises in this approach, and examine its behavior in the two extreme limits of a) no small-x quantum evolution, and b) fully saturated quantum evolution. In both cases, the formalism reduces to Glauber's formalism of multiple scatterings. We comment on the possible implications of this study for the interpretation of the recent results on Deuteron-Gold collisions at the Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider (RHIC).

description: Objective: Fused filament fabrication “3-dimensional (3-D)” printing has expanded beyond the workplace to 3-D printers and pens for use by children as toys to create objects. Materials and methods: Emissions from two brands of toy 3-D pens and one brand of toy 3-D printer were characterized in a 0.6 m3 chamber (particle number, size, elemental composition; concentrations of individual and total volatile organic compounds (TVOC)). The effects of print parameters on these emission metrics were evaluated using mixed-effects models. Emissions data were used to model particle lung deposition and TVOC exposure potential. Results: Geometric mean particle yields (106–1010 particles/g printed) and sizes (30–300 nm) and TVOC yields (3 in a classroom and 3–154 µg/m3 in a residential living room. Discussion: Potential exists for inhalation of organic vapors and metal-containing particles during use of these toys. Conclusions: If deemed appropriate, e.g. where multiple toys are used in a poorly ventilated area or a toy is positioned near a child’s breathing zone, control technologies should be implemented to reduce emissions and exposure risk.

description: Unless the reality of spacetime singularities is assumed, astrophysical black holes cannot be identical to their mathematical counterparts obtained as solutions of the Einstein field equations. Mechanisms for singularity regularization would spark deviations with respect to the predictions of general relativity, although these deviations are generally presumed to be negligible for all practical purposes. Nonetheless, the strength and nature of these deviations remain open questions, given the present uncertainties about the dynamics of quantum gravity. We present here a geometric classification of all spherically symmetric spacetimes that could result from singularity regularization, using a kinematic construction that is both exhaustive and oblivious to the dynamics of the fields involved. Due to the minimal geometric assumptions behind it, this classification encompasses virtually all modified gravity theories, and any theory of quantum gravity in which an effective description in terms of an effective metric is available. The first noteworthy conclusion of our analysis is that the number of independent classes of geometries that can be constructed is remarkably limited, with no more than a handful of qualitatively different possibilities. But our most surprising result is that this catalogue of possibilities clearly demonstrates that the degree of internal consistency and the strength of deviations with respect to general relativity are strongly, and positively, correlated. Hence, either quantum fluctuations of spacetime come to the rescue and solve these internal consistency issues, or singularity regularization will percolate to macroscopic (near-horizon) scales, radically changing our understanding of black holes and opening new opportunities to test quantum gravity.

Feeding quality of pea for poultry

description: This note gives an overview of the components and feed value of field pea. Pea (Pisum sativum L.) is rich in protein and energy. Pea complements cereal in the feed ration because of the high content of lysine. The feed value of pea for poultry is determined by the metabolisable energy for poultry and the digestibility of the amino acids. Depending on the animal type and rearing phase, white-flowering, light-coloured pea can be used for poultry up to 30% of the feed compound mixture. The feeding value must be determined for each batch of pea so that the use can be targeted. Field pea can be sold to compound feed producers. But on-farm use gives a better return than can be achieved when sold to the market. Home-grown grain legumes are an important component of GMO-free feed rations.

description: Background: Neutrinos in the low-energy regime provide a gateway to a wealth of interesting physics. While plenty of literature exists on detailing the calculation and measurement of total reaction strengths, relatively little attention is paid to the measurement and modeling of the final lepton through differential cross sections at low energies, despite the experimental importance. Purpose: We calculate differential cross sections for low-energy neutrino-nucleus scattering. We examine the role played by forbidden transitions in these distributions and how this differs across different energies and nuclear target masses. Attention is also paid to predictions for typical experimental neutrino spectra. Method: The differential cross sections are calculated within a Continuum Random Phase Approximation framework, which allows us to include collective excitations induced by long-range correlations. The Coulomb interaction of the final lepton in charged current events is treated in an effective way. Results: Kinematic distributions are calculated for $^{16}$O, $^{40}$Ar and $^{208}$Pb. $^{40}$Ar model results are compared for CC ($ν_e,e^-$) reactions to events generated by the MARLEY event generator, with noticeable discrepancies. Conclusion: Forbidden transitions have a marked effect on the kinematic distributions of the final lepton at low-energy kinematics, such as for DAR neutrinos or for a Fermi-Dirac spectrum at low temperature. This could introduce biases in experimental analyses. Backwards scattering is noticeably more prominent than with MARLEY.

description: This report presents an analysis of responses obtained from visitors to the United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) outdoor farmers market at 12th and Independence Avenue, SW, in Washington, D.C. during two market days, September 10 and 17, 2010. The Rapid Market Assessment, also known as the dot survey, was carried out to assess the composition and shopping habits of the market’s customer base so the managers of the market could better understand their customers. Personnel from the USDA Agricultural Marketing Service’s (AMS) Farmers Market and Direct Marketing Research Branch used the dot survey approach to conduct consumer research at the farmers market. The dot survey technique is a “self-service” research approach that asks a limited number of questions displayed on easels in the market. Individual questions are placed on poster boards, making it easy for consumers to indicate their responses with round, colorful, self-sticking dots. The dot survey technique is a quick, simple, and effective way to engage consumer participation and collect market data. It is among the most popular techniques for gauging consumer behavior at farmers markets.

Giant H II regions in the merging system NGC 3256: Are they the birthplaces of globular clusters?

description: CCD images and spectra of ionized hydrogen in the merging system NGC3256 were acquired as part of a kinematic study to investigate the formation of globular clusters (GC) during the interactions and mergers of disk galaxies. This paper focuses on the proposition that giant H II regions, with an H_alpha luminosity > 1.5 x 10^{40} erg s^{-1}, are birthplaces of young populous clusters (YPC). We estimate 900 30-Doradus-like H II regions formed during the galaxy-galaxy interaction which created NGC 3256. A specific frequency argument for forming a sufficient number of GC, assuming that the NGC3256 merger remnant will be an elliptical galaxy, only requires that about 10% of these H II regions harbor YPC which survive several Gyr and have masses at least as large as the cluster R136 in 30 Doradus.

description: We compute the production of quark-antiquark pairs in high energy collisions between a small and a large projectile, as in proton-nucleus collisions, in the framework of the Color Glass Condensate. We derive a general expression for quark pair-production, which is not k_t-factorizable. However, k_t-factorization is recovered in the limit of large mass pairs or large quark--anti-quark momenta. Our results are amenable to a simple interpretation and suggest how multi-parton correlations at small x can be quantified in high-energy proton/deuteron-nucleus collisions.

description: In this work, the authors present a detailed train-track interaction model of a long freight train operation to predict long-term rail surface damage. In addition to vehicles and track, intermediate maintenance actions in the form of cyclic grinding passes have also been modelled according to European standards to realistically represent the evolving wheel-rail interface. The influence of longitudinal train dynamics in the form of inter-vehicle interactions, traction, braking, gradients, etc is also included in this method to reflect their effect on damage evolution. The authors demonstrate that the novel ‘Train-track interaction’ formulation is more complete and therefore better suited to study long-term rail surface damage as opposed to existing ‘vehicle-track’ formulations since the former brings the system dynamics at play, significantly altering the wheel-rail interaction. A key highlight of this work is that the rail surface damage is expressed in the form of evolving rail profiles over a large tonnage passing and by depicting RCF-affected zones. This framework can be tuned into a digital twin to guide infrastructure managers regarding the condition of rail surface as a function of tonnage passage. This can in turn facilitate predictive maintenance of track depending on traffic and operation.

description: In this paper, we develop an in-depth analysis of non-reversible Markov chains on denumerable state space from a similarity orbit perspective. In particular, we study the class of Markov chains whose transition kernel is in the similarity orbit of a normal transition kernel, such as the one of birth-death chains or reversible Markov chains. We start by identifying a set of sufficient conditions for a Markov chain to belong to the similarity orbit of a birth-death one. As by-products, we obtain a spectral representation in terms of non-self-adjoint resolutions of identity in the sense of Dunford [21] and offer a detailed analysis on the convergence rate, separation cutoff and ${\rm{L}}^2$-cutoff of this class of non-reversible Markov chains. We also look into the problem of estimating the integral functionals from discrete observations for this class. In the last part of this paper, we investigate a particular similarity orbit of reversible Markov kernels, that we call the pure birth orbit, and analyze various possibly non-reversible variants of classical birth-death processes in this orbit.

description: The protein domain arrangement known as the La-module, comprised of a La motif (LaM) followed by a linker and RNA recognition motif (RRM), is found in seven La-related proteins: LARP1, LARP1B, LARP3 (La protein), LARP4, LARP4B, LARP6, and LARP7 in humans. Several LARPs have been characterized for their distinct activity in a specific aspect of RNA metabolism. The La-modules vary among the LARPs in linker length and RRM subtype. The La-modules of La protein and LARP7 bind and protect nuclear RNAs with UUU-3ʹ tails from degradation by 3ʹ exonucleases. LARP4 is an mRNA poly(A) stabilization factor that binds poly(A) and the cytoplasmic poly(A)-binding protein PABPC1 (also known as PABP). LARP1 exhibits poly(A) length protection and mRNA stabilization similar to LARP4. Here, we show that these LARP1 activities are mediated by its La-module and dependent on a PAM2 motif that binds PABP. The isolated La-module of LARP1 is sufficient for PABP-dependent poly(A) length protection and mRNA stabilization in HEK293 cells. A point mutation in the PAM2 motif in the La-module impairs mRNA stabilization and PABP binding in vivo but does not impair oligo(A) RNA binding by the purified recombinant La-module in vitro. We characterize the unusual PAM2 sequence of LARP1 and show it may differentially affect stable and unstable mRNAs. The unique LARP1 La-module can function as an autonomous factor to confer poly(A) protection and stabilization to heterologous mRNAs.

description: The La-related proteins (LaRPs) are a superfamily of eukaryotic RNA-binding proteins with important and varied roles. To understand LaRP functions it is essential to unravel the divergent features responsible for their RNA target selectivity, which underlie their distinct identities and cellular roles. LaRPs are built on a common structural module called the ‘La-module’ that acts as a main locus for RNA recognition. The La-module is comprised of two tethered domains whose relative structural and dynamic interplay has been proposed to regulate RNA-target selection, albeit the mechanistic underpinning of this recognition remains to be elucidated. A main unsolved conundrum is how conserved La-modules across LaRPs are able to bind to extremely diverse RNA ligands. In this work, we employed Small Angle X-ray Scattering (SAXS) to investigate several human LaRP La-modules in the absence and, where applicable, in the presence of their RNA target, with the aim to explore the structural dynamics of their RNA recognition and provide information on the architectural landscape accessible to these proteins. Integration of these SAXS experiments with prior X-ray crystallography and NMR data suggests that RNA binding is generally accompanied by a compaction and loss of flexibility of the La-module. Nonetheless, the La-modules appear to experience a considerably different degree of inherent flexibility in their apo state. Furthermore, although they all exist in discrete subsets of accessible populations in equilibrium, these vary from LaRP to LaRP and can be either extended or compact. We propose that these divergent features may be critical for RNA substrate discrimination.
Angular Momentum and Heat Transport on Tidally Locked Hot Jupiter Planets

Subjects: subject: Earth and Planetary Astrophysics (astro-ph.EP)

description: The atmospheric circulation in the upper atmosphere of hot Jupiter planets is strongly influenced by the incoming stellar radiation. In this work we explore the results from a 3D atmospheric model and revisit the main processes driving the circulation in hot Jupiter planets. We use the angular momentum transport as a diagnostic and carry out a Fourier analysis to identify the atmospheric waves involved. We find that the coupling between the angular momentum transported horizontally by the semi-diurnal tide and the mean circulation is the mechanism responsible for producing the strong jet at low latitudes. Our simulations indicate the possible formation of atmospheric indirect cells at low latitudes. The formation of these cells is induced by the presence of the semi-diurnal tide that is driven by the stellar irradiation. The tropical circulation has an important impact transporting heat and momentum from the upper towards the lower atmosphere. One of the consequences of this heat and momentum transport is a global increase of the temperature. We show that the initial conditions do not affect the output of the reference simulation. However, when the period of rotation of the planet was increased ($P_{rot} > 5$ Earth days), vertical transport by stationary waves became stronger, transient waves became non-negligible, and Coriolis influence less dominant, which allowed a steady state with a strong retrograde jet to be stable. We found that at least two statically steady state solutions exist for the same planet parameters.

description: The single-freeze-out model of hadron production is used to describe the particle ratios and the transverse-momentum spectra from RHIC. The emphasis is put on the new measurements done at the highest beam energy of 200 GeV. An overall very good agreement is found between the data and the model predictions. The data for different centrality windows are analyzed separately. A simple scaling of the two expansion parameters of the model with the centrality is found. Interestingly, this scaling turns out to be equivalent to the scaling of hadron production with the number of wounded nucleons.

description: We have used the Australia Telescope Compact Array to image the neutral hydrogen in the merging system NGC 3256, to test the idea that globular clusters (GC) form during the interactions and mergers of disk galaxies. We compare our observations with hydrodynamical numerical simulations, from the literature, to examine the hypothesis that the H I fragments with masses greater than 10$^{7\pm1} \mo$ are sites of GC formation. We appear to have detected detached H I fragments in the vicinity of NGC 3256. These fragments, with masses ~10^7 solar masses, may have little dark matter content which is also a characteristic of globular clusters, and so our observations support the hypothesis that globular clusters form in the type of interaction that resulted in NGC 3256.

description: O presente artigo se propõe a elucidar as ações estratégicas empreendidas pelas indústrias orizícolas, participantes da Rede Arrozeiras do Sul, tendo em vista a perspectiva da sustentabilidade e identificar os desafios a serem enfrentados por essas indústrias para que as mesmas possam se inserir no contexto da gestão sustentável. Visando alcançar os objetivos propostos realizou-se um estudo de caráter exploratório, utilizando-se o método de “estudos de casos múltiplos”, pois a pesquisa foi realizada junto às organizações participantes da Rede Arrozeiras do Sul que foi formada com o apoio do Programa Redes de Cooperação do Estado do Rio Grande do Sul. No total foram entrevistadas nove pessoas, ou seja, oito gestores das organizações participantes da rede e mais o consultor do Programa Redes de Cooperação responsável em acompanhar o desenvolvimento e a evolução da rede ao longo do tempo. A coleta dos dados foi realizada através de fontes documentais, entrevistas individuais em profundidade e questionários, e a análise é de cunho qualitativo tendo como base o referencial teórico utilizado no estudo. Os resultados encontrados permitem inferir que as ações desenvolvidas pelas indústrias pertencentes à Rede Arrozeiras do Sul encontram-se num estágio intermediário entre a lógica econômico-financeira e a lógica da sustentabilidade. O processo de evolução para o paradigma sustentável consistirá na busca de práticas que priorizem a idéia do coletivo, da interação e ação por parte das organizações incorporando uma visão de longo prazo que contemple as três dimensões envolvidas no tripé da sustentabilidade – social, ambiental e econômica. Essa evolução exigirá esforços de todos os envolvidos no sentido de colocar em prática, coletivamente, as decisões que estão sendo deliberadas pelas indústrias participantes da rede analisada.

description: CO is the most widely used gas tracer of protoplanetary disks. Its abundance is usually assumed to be an interstellar ratio throughout the warm molecular layer of the disk. But recent observations of low CO gas abundance in many protoplanetary disks challenge our understanding of physical and chemical evolutions in disks. Here we investigate the CO abundance structures in four well-studied disks and compare their structures with predictions of chemical processing of CO and transport of CO ice-coated dust grains in disks. We use spatially resolved CO isotopologue line observations and detailed thermo-chemical models to derive CO abundance structures. We find that the CO abundance varies with radius by an order of magnitude in these disks. We show that although chemical processes can efficiently reduce the total column of CO gas within 1 Myr under an ISM level of cosmic-ray ionization rate, the depletion mostly occurs at the deep region of a disk. Without sufficient vertical mixing, the surface layer is not depleted enough to reproduce weak CO emissions observed. The radial profiles of CO depletion in three disks are qualitatively consistent with predictions of pebble formation, settling, and drifting in disks. But the dust evolution alone cannot fully explain the high depletion observed in some disks. These results suggest that dust evolution may play a significant role in transporting volatile materials and a coupled chemical-dynamical study is necessary to understand what raw materials are available for planet formation at different distances from the central star.

description: Europe and America share a host of similar rural problems, but not a common approach to solving them. Social and political differences make it unlikely that we can easily transplant and adopt European programs. But observing the similarities can help us understand the global nature of the forces at work and account for them in our own solutions. Europeans have tended to rely on centralized government approaches but, like the United States, are now emphasizing decentralization and private market approaches.

description: We provide a set of diagonals of simple rational functions of three and four variables that are squares of Heun functions. These Heun functions obtained through creative telescoping, turn out to be either pullbacked $_2F_1$ hypergeometric functions and in fact classical modular forms. We also obtain Heun functions that are Shimura curves as solutions of telescopers of rational functions.

description: We compute the strange quark mass $m_s$ and the average of the $u$ and $d$ quark masses $\hat m$ using full lattice QCD with three dynamical quarks combined with experimental values for the pion and kaon masses. The simulations have degenerate $u$ and $d$ quarks with masses $m_u=m_d\equiv \hat m$ as low as $m_s/8$, and two different values of the lattice spacing. The bare lattice quark masses obtained are converted to the $\msbar$ scheme using perturbation theory at $O(alpha_s)$. Our results are: $m_s^\msbar$(2 GeV) = 76(0)(3)(7)(0) MeV, $\hat m^\msbar$(2 GeV) = 2.8(0)(1)(3)(0) MeV and $m_s/\hat m$ = 27.4(1)(4)(0)(1), where the errors are from statistics, simulation, perturbation theory, and electromagnetic effects, respectively.

description: We extend symbolic model checking for Dynamic Epistemic Logic (DEL) with factual change. Our transformers provide a compact representation of action models with pre- and postconditions, for both S5 and the general case. The method can be implemented using binary decision diagrams and we expect it to improve model checking performance. As an example we give a symbolic representation of the Sally-Anne false belief task.

Notes on polytopes, amplitudes and boundary configurations for Grassmannian string integrals

description: We continue the study of positive geometries underlying the {\it Grassmannian string integrals}, which are a class of "stringy canonical forms", or stringy integrals, over the positive Grassmannian mod torus action, $G_+(k,n)/T$. The leading order of any such stringy integral is given by the canonical function of a polytope, which can be obtained using the Minkowski sum of the Newton polytopes for the regulators of the integral, or equivalently given by the so-called scattering-equation map. The canonical function of the polytopes for Grassmannian string integrals, or the volume of their dual polytopes, is also known as the generalized bi-adjoint $ϕ^3$ amplitudes. We compute all the linear functions for the facets which cut out the polytope for all cases up to $n=9$, with up to k=4 and their parity conjugate cases. The main novelty of our computation is that we present these facets in a manifestly gauge-invariant and cyclic way, and identify the boundary configurations of $G_+(k,n)/T$ corresponding to these facets, which have nice geometric interpretations in terms of $n$ points in $(k{-}1)$-dimensional space. All the facets and configurations we discovered up to $n=9$ directly generalize to all $n$, although new types are still needed for higher $n$.
description: 34 pages+ appendices, lots of figures, with typo fixed. Ancilliary files for all the facets up to $k=3$, $n=10$ and $k=4$, $n=9$, as well as ampltitudes up to $n=8$ are included with the submission

description: A orizicultura é um dos segmentos mais promissores deste importante setor da economia varzealegrense, que é a agricultura. O município de Várzea Alegre / CE não dispõe de dados concretos sobre as características socioeconômicas e a predominância tecnológica, referente à produção de arroz no município, sejam de caráter oficial ou não. Sendo assim, este trabalho objetivou descrever o perfil socioeconômico dos produtores de arroz varzealegrenses e conhecer a eficiência na utilização de fatores de produção e a predominância tecnológica nas propriedades rurais do município. Para a realização deste trabalho, foram utilizadas pesquisas de caráter secundário e realizadas pesquisas de campo com aplicação de questionários junto aos orizicultores pertencentes às áreas 1 e 2 de Várzea Alegre. Para alcançar os objetivos propostos, foi utilizado o método da estatística descritiva e a análise de regressão múltipla, empregando a função de produção do tipo Cobb-Douglas. Os resultados da pesquisa evidenciam que a área 1 é mais produtiva que a área 2 e que no município prevalece uma agricultura de subsistência. Os resultados ainda demonstram que os produtores da área 2 utilizam o fator gasto com insumos de modo menos eficiente do que os produtores da área 1, ressaltando que os produtores da área 2 apresentam uso excessivo do fator gastos com insumos. Verifica-se também a falta de mão-deobra qualificada; o setor não conta com assistência técnica especializada e não existem políticas públicas voltadas para a produção. Portanto, sugere-se a implantação de políticas governamentais direcionadas para tal produção, que é de suma importância para a alimentação e renda desta região.

description: O presente trabalho procurou conhecer o perfil socioeconômico e tecnológico dos produtores pecuaristas, bem como caracterizar a atividade leiteira, levando em consideração as características do rebanho, a produção e a comercialização e as principais dificuldades e sugestões para melhorar essa atividade. O estudo analisou as unidades de produção leiteira do município de Bodocó / PE, a partir de três modelos de exploração (extensiva, semi-intensiva e intensiva). Para cumprir com os objetivos desta pesquisa, empregou-se análise tabular e gráfica, apresentando o comparativo entre os produtores pertencentes ao modelo extensivo e os que fazem parte do modelo semi-intensivo. Os resultados permitiram confirmar que a baixa adoção de tecnologia é uma das características das Unidades de Produção do modelo de exploração extensivo. O leite produzido é comercializado sobretudo sob a forma do leite in natura e do queijo e a maior parte é comercializado no próprio município. Apesar da pecuária leiteira ser considerada a principal atividade econômica do município de Bodocó / PE, é necessário que sejam implementadas políticas destinadas ao setor leiteiro, buscando atender as principais necessidades para promover o desenvolvimento local.
