description: Several proposals calling for fundamental reform of the Federal income tax system have been put forth, including a report by the co-chairs of the National Commission on Fiscal Responsibility. The primary elements of reform—eliminating tax preferences, restructuring capital gains and dividend tax rates, lowering rates on individual income, and reducing the number of tax brackets—could have a signifi cant impact on the after-tax income and well-being of both farm businesses and rural households. This report uses published and special tabulation data obtained from the Internal Revenue Service, farm-level data from USDA’s Agricultural Resource Management Survey, and data from the American Housing Survey to examine the current tax situation for farm households and to evaluate the importance of various Federal income tax policies. For farm households, the effect of reform will primarily depend upon changes to existing treatment of investment and business income, including several important business deductions. In contrast, changes to existing individual tax credits, especially refundable tax credits, will likely be of greater signifi cance to nonfarm rural households.

description: This study tracks food products introduced from 1989 to 2010 to better understand the adoption of voluntary health- and nutrition-related claims by companies. New food products introduced with health- and nutrition-related claims accounted for 43.1 percent of all new U.S. food product introductions in 2010, up from 25.2 percent in 2001 and 34.6 percent in 1989. The reduction in health- and nutrition-related claims from 1989 to 2001 followed enactment of the Nutrition Labeling and Education Act of 1990 (NLEA). The NLEA required most food products to carry the Nutrition Facts label and established labeling rules for the use of voluntary nutrient content and health claims. Overall growth in health- and nutrition-related claims after 2001 reflect increases in low/no calorie, whole grain, high fiber, and low/no sugar claims, along with relatively new claims related to no gluten, no trans fats, antioxidants, and omega-3. This period was characterized by nutrition information and education campaigns targeting obesity. Recent increases in healthand nutrition-related claim use also reflect evolving consumer needs and preferences for foods that promote a healthy lifestyle and disease-fighting capabilities, and new labeling regulations directed at trans fats.
Characterising the X-ray selected AGN Content of the Nearby Universe
Creators: name: Birchall, Keir

Subjects: Uncategorized

description: Large-scale surveys of the Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) population performed over the past few decades have highlighted the existence of strong correlations between the central supermassive black hole and their host galaxy. Whilst such samples are incredibly useful, they tend to be incomplete. This skews our understanding of the AGN population as samples consist of largely brighter, more actively accreting objects. In this thesis, I combined SDSS galaxy samples with XMM-Newton serendipitous sources to measure the incidence of AGN as a function of galaxy properties in the nearby (z < 0:35) Universe, carefully accounting for the incompleteness of the X-ray imaging. Regardless of how the galaxy population were split, the probability of hosting an AGN was well described by a power law and highlighted significant amounts of activity at low X-ray luminosities and accretion rates. I identified 61 AGN in dwarf galaxies, of which 40 have not been previously identified. The probability of hosting an AGN in this regime was unaffected by either the stellar mass or redshift of the host galaxy. Then I studied the wider local galaxy population. As with dwarf galaxies, the probability of hosting an AGN is not affected by stellar mass but it does increases with redshift. When comparing my results to higher redshift measurements, I identified a stellar-mass-dependent distribution of black hole growth rates. Finally, I investigated the effect of star-forming activity. I found that the probability of a galaxy hosting an AGN increases with the star formation rate. Throughout, I also compared the effectiveness of AGN selection at X-ray and optical wavelengths. I found that the BPT diagnostic is not as effective as X-ray selection. The optical diagnostic incorrectly classified a significant proportion of the X-ray selected AGN sample as star-forming, and was unable to identify weak AGN emission.

description: Goal: In this work, we develop a robust, extensible tool to automatically and accurately count retinal ganglion cell axons in images of optic nerve tissue from various animal models of glaucoma. Methods: The U-Net convolutional neural network architecture was adapted to learn pixelwise axon count density estimates, which were then integrated over the image area to determine axon counts. The tool, termed AxoNet, was trained and evaluated using a dataset containing images of optic nerve regions randomly selected from complete cross sections of intact rat optic nerves and manually annotated for axon count and location. Both control and damaged optic nerves were used. This rat-trained network was then applied to a separate dataset of non-human primate (NHP) optic nerve images. AxoNet was then compared to two existing automated axon counting tools, AxonMaster and AxonJ, using both datasets. Results: AxoNet outperformed the existing tools on both the rat and NHP optic nerve datasets as judged by mean absolute error, R2 values when regressing automated vs. manual counts, and Bland-Altman analysis. Conclusion: The proposed tool allows for accurate quantification of axon numbers as a measure of glaucomatous damage. AxoNet is robust to variations in optic nerve tissue damage extent, image quality, and species of mammal. Significance: The deep learning method does not rely on hand-crafted image features for axon recognition. Therefore, this approach is not species-specific and can be extended to quantify additional optic nerve features. It will aid evaluation of optic nerve changes in glaucoma and potentially other neurodegenerative diseases.

description: Subgenus Xenochara Mulsant and Rey, 1874
(Fig. 1–28)
Klimaszewski 1984
 Diagnosis. Species of this subgenus are distinguished by the following combination of characters: pronotum evenly pubescent (Fig. 1, 11, 20); mesoventrite with complete or almost complete carina, carina is as long as mesoventrite or slightly shorter; last article of maxillary palpus varying in length, from 1/3 to 3/4 length of penultimate article.
 Remarks. There are many different evolutionary linages in this subgenus that were formerly recognized as species groups (see Klimaszewski 1984) and Xenochara is not likely monophyletic (Maus 2000). Habitats diverse: various decaying organic matter, rotting mushrooms, moss, animal droppings, and forest litter.

description: The drug 2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin (HPβCD) reduces lysosomal cholesterol accumulation in Niemann-Pick disease, type C (NPC) and has been advanced to human clinical trials. However, its mechanism of action for reducing cholesterol accumulation in NPC cells is uncertain and its molecular target is unknown. We found that methyl-β-cyclodextrin (MβCD), a potent analog of HPβCD, restored impaired macroautophagy/autophagy flux in Niemann-Pick disease, type C1 (NPC1) cells. This effect was mediated by a direct activation of AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK), an upstream kinase in the autophagy pathway, through MβCD binding to its β-subunits. Knockdown of PRKAB1 or PRKAB2 (encoding the AMPK β1 or β2 subunit) expression and an AMPK inhibitor abolished MβCD-mediated reduction of cholesterol storage in NPC1 cells. The results demonstrate that AMPK is the molecular target of MβCD and its activation enhances autophagy flux, thereby mitigating cholesterol accumulation in NPC1 cells. The results identify AMPK as an attractive target for drug development to treat NPC.

description: We study the ground state properties, potential energy curves and potential energy surfaces of the superheavy nucleus $^{270}$Hs by using the multidimensionally-constrained relativistic mean-field model with the effective interaction PC-PK1. The binding energy, size and shape as well as single particle shell structure corresponding to the ground state of this nucleus are obtained. $^{270}$Hs is well deformed and exhibits deformed doubly magic feature in the single neutron and proton level schemes. One-dimensional potential energy curves and two-dimensional potential energy surfaces are calculated for $^{270}$Hs with various spatial symmetries imposed. We investigate in detail the effects of the reflection asymmetric and triaxial distortions on the fission barrier and fission path of $^{270}$Hs. When the axial symmetry is imposed, the reflection symmetric and reflection asymmetric fission barriers both show a double-hump structure and the former is higher. However, when triaxial shapes are allowed the reflection symmetric barrier is lowered very much and then the reflection symmetric fission path becomes favorable.

description: We address the general issue of resolving the wave-vector in complex electromagnetic media including negative refractive media. This requires us to make a physical choice for the sign of a square-root imposed merely by conditions of causality. By considering the analytic behaviour of the wave-vector in the complex plane, it is shown that there are a total of eight physically distinct cases in the four quadrants of two Riemann sheets.

description: The Marketing Order for California almonds was amended in 2007 to enhance food safety. Around 400-500 million pounds of almonds undergo an added step in processing to reduce risk of salmonella contamination. This paper reports on the logistics necessary for implementing the program. We use a linear programming model and assess the uncertain costs of transportation and the risks related to regulatory approval of certain pasteurization technologies. The total cost of treatment and the associated logistics is approximately $28 million per year. Capacity for treatment is adequate. The pricing of out-sourced treatment services is the main driver in the cost estimates.

description: The Environmental Protection Agency declared the pesticide azinphos-methyl must not be used in apple production after September 2012. We use this ban to contribute to the debate on environmental regulation versus industrial output. We use a computable general equilibrium model to estimate the change to sales, price, and employment in the Washington apple industry and the statewide economy had this ban existed in 2007. We estimate the ban decreases profit per acre by $101; changes sales by -0.8%, prices by 0.2%, and employment by 0.1% in the apple industry; but has negligible impacts on the Washington economy.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: Deep VLA 1.4 GHz radio continuum imaging of Abell 2255 is presented. This cluster is among the better nearby candidates for rich cluster-cluster merger systems, with evidence including an elongated X-ray morphology, the presence of a radio halo, and substructure present in its galaxy distribution. Our radio observations reach an rms sensitivity of ~40 uJy/beam, enabling us to detect (at 5 sigma) star formation rates as low as 1.4 M(sun)/year from the center of the cluster out to a radial distance of 3 Mpc. The radio data are complemented by optical imaging and a large spectroscopic database, allowing us to separate all galaxies with M_R < -20 into cluster members and foreground/background galaxies. The spectra are also used to associate the galaxies' radio emission with either star formation or AGN. We compare the resulting cluster radio galaxy population with those of nineteen other nearby Abell clusters, and find strong evidence for an increase in the frequency of radio galaxies in Abell 2255. This increase is seen in two separate types of galaxies: powerful radio AGN and optically-faint star forming galaxies. The optical spectra of the latter often indicate current or recent starbursts, and these galaxies appear to be distributed along an axis perpendicular to the probable merger axis. We assess these factors in light of models of galaxy evolution, and suggest that the cluster-cluster merger is responsible for triggering galaxy activity in Abell 2255.

Os resultados indicaram que maior número de produtores tinha acesso esporádico e dedicado à solução de problemas mais prementes e uma minoria apresentava padrão de acesso diário e o hábito de acompanhar o mercado de café. A disponibilidade do acesso à internet por meio de banda larga, os hábitos de navegação dos familiares dos produtores e a baixa atratividade dos sites interferiam na freqüência de uso destes. Os usuários que, além de produtores, são agrônomos foram reticentes quanto à busca de informações técnicas sobre a cultura. Observou-se baixo nível de utilização de ferramentas ou de serviços oferecidos nos sites. A não aceitação da idéia de pagamento pelo uso dos sites ficou fortemente evidenciada e sua preponderância bloqueia a interação entre produtores e sites. Os sites deveriam focar a disponibilização de informações que englobem aspectos da cadeia e abra espaço para a interação entre os elos. Não foi evidenciada a existência de processos sistemáticos de análise das informações. Ou seja, os dados e as informações não recebem o tratamento devido para que gerem o conhecimento e se desenvolva inteligência gerencial. Percebe-se, portanto que, ainda que tenha acesso à informação e a valorize, o usuário nem sempre tem consciência de sua aplicabilidade ou consegue tornar possível sua aplicação.

description: The norms associated with the gradients of the two non-differential invariants of the Kerr vacuum are examined. Whereas both locally single out the horizons, their global behavior is more interesting. Both reflect the background angular momentum as the volume of space allowing a timelike gradient decreases with increasing angular momentum becoming zero in the degenerate and naked cases. These results extend directly to the Kerr-Newman geometry.

description: Our ordinary life changed quite a bit in March of 2020 due to the global Covid-19 pandemic. While spring time in general well awaited and regarded as a synonym for rejuvenation the spring of 2020 brought lock-down, curfew, home office and digital education to the lives of many. The particle physics community was not an exception: research institutes and universities introduced home office and digital lecturing and all workshops, conferences and summer schools were canceled, got postponed or took place online. Using publicly available data from the INSPIRE and arXiv databases we investigate the effects of this dramatic change of life to the publishing trends of the high-energy physics community with an emphasis on particle phenomenology and theory. To get insights we gather information about publishing trends in the last 20 years, and analyse it in detail.

description: Universal conductance fluctuations are usually observed in the form of aperiodic oscillations in the magnetoresistance of thin wires as a function of the magnetic field B. If such oscillations are completely random at scales exceeding ξ_B, their Fourier analysis should reveal a white noise spectrum at frequencies below ξ_B^{-1}. Comparison with the results for 1D systems suggests another scenario: according to it, such oscillations are due to the superposition of incommensurate harmonics and their spectrum should contain discrete frequencies. An accurate Fourier analysis of the classical experiment by Washburn and Webb reveals a purely discrete spectrum in agreement with the latter scenario. However, this spectrum is close in shape to the discrete white noise spectrum whose properties are similar to a continuous one.

description: Apesar do bom desempenho recente da cadeia produtiva da carne suína no Brasil, verifica-se que este setor é afetado por instabilidades no cenário internacional e por incertezas de ordem sanitária, econômica e ambiental. A fim de melhor posicionar os agentes econômicos frente às mudanças no ambiente concorrencial, existem inúmeras ferramentas de planejamento e gestão, sendo que a técnica de construção de cenários é uma delas. O presente trabalho é um estudo exploratório da cadeia produtiva da carne suína brasileira, com ênfase nos três estados da região Sul, e tem por objetivo identificar dois elementos centrais na construção de cenários, quais sejam: as tendências e as incertezas percebidas pelos principais agentes da cadeia produtiva. Para tanto, foram entrevistados 19 técnicos e dirigentes das instituições públicas e privadas que representam, apóiam e fiscalizam a suinocultura nacional. Os resultados apontam para as principais tendências e incertezas, bem como para quatro esboços de cenários para a suinocultura nos próximos cinco anos.

description: This thesis studies theoretically and experimentally voting decisions and their welfare implications in three chapters.Chapter 2 discusses the consequences of heterogeneous beliefs on voting behaviour and the welfare implications driven by them. We assume an asymmetric change in voters’ beliefs about the ability of politicians to govern after an implicit negative economic shock. Voters lose faith in the incumbent politician and trust an outsider challenger without prior office experience. Using an electoral competitionmodel, we provide a connection between voters’ beliefs and the post-shock equilibrium policies. Moreover, our welfare analysis shows that competition may under-provide public goods compared to a utilitarian social planner, depending onvoters’ belief distribution regarding the challenger politician.Chapter 3 explores the role of identity in voters’ decision to retain corrupt politicians. We build up a model of electoral accountability with pure moral hazard and bring it to the lab. Politicians must decide whether to invest in a public project with uncertain returns or keep the funds for themselves. Voters observe the outcome of the project but not the action of the politician. We run two treatments; a control and a treatment where subjects are assigned an identity. Our main result is that, upon observing a failed project, voters approve politicians of their same identity group more often than in the control, and compared to politicians of a different group.Chapter 4 introduces a general median voter model of linear taxation with voters having different valuations of public expenditure, according to their income. Moreover, we assume non-quasi-linear preferences and we allow for distortive taxation. We discuss the welfare implications of these different assumptions separately and we see that competition might under-provide public goods, which comes in contrast with the well-known result of the literature, where competition always leads to over-provision, assuming a rightly-skewed income distribution.

description: Massive quiescent galaxies at high redshift can shed light on the processes of galaxy mass assembly and quenching of the star formation at early epochs. We present observer-frame color-color diagrams designed to identify candidate quiescent galaxies from z=2.5 up to the highest redshifts, that can be then be selected for spectroscopic follow-up observations. The application to the COSMOS2015 catalog shows that, after refining the selection with SED fitting, the number of massive old quiescent galaxies exceeds the forecast of state-of-the-art semi-analytic models, pointing out the need of an improvement of the implemented quenching mechanisms at high redshifts.

description: We consider hadron production in deuteron gold collisions at RHIC in the forward rapidity region. Treating the target nucleus as a Color Glass Condensate and the projectile deuteron as a dilute system of valence quarks, we obtain good agreement with the BRAHMS minimum bias data on charged hadron production in the forward rapidity ($y=3.2$) and low $p_t$ region. We provide predictions for neutral pion production in minimum bias deuteron gold collisions in the forward rapidity region, $y=3.8$, measured by the STAR collaboration at RHIC.

Spin-Orbit and Tensor Forces in Heavy-quark Light-quark Mesons: Implications of the New Ds state at 2.32 GeV

description: We consider the spectroscopy of heavy-quark light-quark mesons with a simple model based on the non-relativistic reduction of vector and scalar exchange between fermions. Four forces are induced: the spin-orbit forces on the light and heavy quark spins, the tensor force, and a spin-spin force. If the vector force is Coulombic, the spin-spin force is a contact interaction, and the tensor force and spin-orbit force on the heavy quark to order $1/m_1m_2$ are directly proportional. As a result, just two independent parameters characterize these perturbations. The measurement of the masses of three p-wave states suffices to predict the mass of the fourth. This technique is applied to the $D_s$ system, where the newly discovered state at 2.32 GeV provides the third measured level, and to the $D$ system. The mixing of the two $J^P=1^+$ p-wave states is reflected in their widths and provides additional constraints. The resulting picture is at odds with previous expectations and raises new puzzles.

description: A liberalização comercial e desregulamentação dos mercados levaram a forte mudança na composição da pauta de exportação brasileira, com crescimento da participação da agricultura, setor em que tradicionalmente o país apresenta vantagens comparativas. Paradoxalmente, os superávits comerciais da agricultura vêm sendo apontados como problema, na medida que contribuem para a apreciação da moeda doméstica e conseqüente perda de competitividade do setor industrial. Este trabalho teve o objetivo de contribuir para esse debate, buscando estimar os fatores determinantes do valor das exportações agrícolas. Por meio da estimação de um modelo de correção de erro vetorial se chegou à conclusão que o crescimento econômico mundial pouco influenciou o desempenho das exportações agrícolas. A taxa de câmbio, que esteve apreciada por grande parte do período analisado, tampouco mostrou importância significativa. Pelo contrário o modelo sugere que as exportações agrícolas têm influência sobre as variações cambiais, resultado que reforça o argumento dos que consideram o sucesso comercial da agricultura uma das principais causas da desindustrialização brasileira.

description: We report the results from recent observations of Sgr A* at short-/sub-millimeter wavelengths made with the partially finished Sub-Millimeter Array (SMA) on Mauna Kea. A total of 25 epochs of observations were carried out over the past 15 months in 2001 March to 2002 May. Noticeable variations in flux density at 1.3 mm were observed showing three ``flares''. The SMA observations suggest that Sgr A* highly increases towards submillimeter wavelengths during a flare suggesting the presence of a break wavelength in spectral index around 3 mm. A cross-correlation of the SMA data at 1 mm with the VLA data at 1 cm show a global delay of $t_{delay} > 3d$, suggesting that sub-millimeter wavelengths tend to peak first. Only marginal day-to-day variations in flux density (2-3 $σ$) have been detected at 1.3 mm. No significant flares on a short time scale ($\sim1$ hr) have been observed at 1.3 mm. We also failed to detect significant periodic signals at a level of 5% (3$σ$) from Sgr A* in a periodic searching window ranging from 10 min to 2.5 hr. The flares observed at the wavelengths between short-centimeter and sub-millimeter might be a result of collective mass ejections associated with X-ray flares that originate from the inner region of the accretion disk near the supermassive black hole.

description: Training a deep neural network for classification constitutes a major problem in remote sensing due to the lack of adequate field data. Acquiring high-resolution ground truth (GT) by human interpretation is both cost-ineffective and inconsistent. We propose, instead, to utilize high-resolution, hyperspectral images for solving this problem, by unmixing these images to obtain reliable GT for training a deep network. Specifically, we simulate GT from high-resolution, hyperspectral FENIX images, and use it for training a convolutional neural network (CNN) for pixel-based classification. We show how the model can be transferred successfully to classify new mid-resolution VENuS imagery.
Spectroscopic Analysis of Double-Lined Double Degenerate Systems and the Interstellar Medium Towards White Dwarfs

description: Double degenerates in close binaries make interesting objects of research. Firstly, they are the products of common envelope evolution, which has yet to be observed explicitly. Secondly, their small orbital periods often mean that a merger will occur within a Hubble time. The product of such a merger depends on the system's mass, and, therefore, these double degenerate systems could be the progenitors of type Ia supernovae. To date, there are ~100 known white dwarf-white dwarf binaries with orbital periods below 1 day, as well as ~50 white dwarf-hot subdwarf binaries. However, there are only a handful of proposed double hot subdwarf/pre-white dwarf systems. The latter have more recently shed their common envelopes, and the particulars of their formation are still under discussion.In the first two chapters of this thesis I undertake the first spectroscopic analysis of two such systems. The first contains binary central stars within a planetary nebula, whose spectra resemble those of hot subdwarf stars. These stars were recently reported to have a low orbital period and high system mass, making this system a supernova type Ia candidate. The second system is the first eclipsing double hot subdwarf system to be discovered. However, the analysis is limited in the first system by interstellar reddening, and in the second by the faintness of the stars. In the last chapter, I analyse the interstellar medium absorption lines present in the spectra of three white dwarf stars. These stars display highly ionised absorption lines not originating from the stellar photospheres. An analysis of the lines' profiles can reveal the temperature and turbulence of the source. However, this analysis is limited by the number of elements present in a given component.
