description: Präsentationsfolien der Coffee Lecture vom Mittwoch, 19. Mai 2021 um 12:30 Uhr, UB Hildesheim. Eine Veranstaltung mit Dr. rer. nat. Évariste Demandt. (IT Center, RWTH Aachen University) Thema:  Das Konsortium NFDI4Ing als Teil der Nationalen Forschungsdateninfrastruktur Die Universität Hildesheim informiert in einer neuen Veranstaltungsreihe im Sommersemester 2021 über das Forschungsdatenmanagement. Annette Strauch ist an der Universität Hildesheim für das Forschungsdatenmanagement zuständig. Der Umgang mit Forschungsdaten ist essentiell für die wissenschaftliche Tätigkeit, und ganz unterschiedliche Open Science-Themen werden in den kommenden Veranstaltungen behandelt. Offene Wissenschaft ist in Zeiten des globalen, digitalen Wandels eine wichtige Gewährleistung der verfasungsmäßig garantierten Freiheit der Wissenschaft. Sie funktioniert immer dann, wenn Strategien und Verfahren gebündelt werden, sodass alle Bestandteile des wissenschaftlichen Prozesses offen zugänglich, nachvollziehbar und nachnutzbar gemacht werden. In „Coffee Lectures“ und Workshops kommen Studierende, Forscherinnen und Forscher mit Expertinnen und Experten aus der Fachcommunity und anderen Vertretern der Universitäten und externen Fachleuten zusammen. Dabei hat Annette Strauch vor allem das praxisbezogene, fächerübergreifende, fachspezifische und auch generische FDM im Blick. Also all das, was den größten Nutzen und Mehrwert (nicht Mehrarbeit!) für Forscherinnen und Forscher bringt. In der Praxis werden es wieder es Muster sein, Workflows, Fallbeispiele und Standards. Hilfreiche Beispiele für Forscherinnen und Forscher veranschaulichen, wie bereits andere ihr Datenmanagement organisiert haben und was sich dabei bewährt hat und was nicht. Weitere Infos: Die „Coffee Lectures“ und Workshops finden mehrmals im Semester statt. Eine Anmeldung ist nicht erforderlich und auch externe Gäste können teilnehmen, wie bisher.

description: We have analyzed about 100 voltage-dependent differential resistance dV/dI(V) curves of metallic point contacts between c-axis oriented MgB$_2$ thin film and Ag, which exhibit clear Andreev reflection features connected with the superconducting gap. About one half of the curves show the presence of a second larger gap. The histogram of the double-gap distribution reveals distinct maxima at 2.4 and 7 meV, while curves with a single-gap features result in more broad maximum at 3.5 meV. The double-gap distribution is in qualitative agreement with the distribution of gap values over the Fermi surface calculated by H. J. Choi et al. (cond-mat/0111183). The data unequivocally show the presence of two gaps $Δ_{S}=2.45\pm 0.15$ meV and $Δ_{L}=7.0\pm 0.45$ meV in MgB$_2$ with gap ratio $2.85\pm 0.15$. Our observations prove further a widely discussed multi-gap scenario for MgB$_2$, where two distinct gaps are seen in the clean limit, while a single averaged gap is present in the dirty one.

Fulfilling Australia’s International Climate Finance Commitments: Which Sources of Financing are Promising and How Much Could They Raise?

description: Developed countries have pledged to mobilise $100 billion per year by 2020 for climate change action in developing countries. Progress on financing is necessary to ensure broader progress on climate change cooperation. Supporting the global commitment is in Australia’s interests, since climate finance can harness low-cost mitigation opportunities and help vulnerable countries in the Asia-Pacific region adapt to climate change. Based on Australia’s wealth and emissions, we find that a fair share for Australia may be around 2.4 per cent, or $2.4 billion a year by 2020. We analyse possible sources of finance in Australia. Carbon markets could provide large financial flows but their shortterm prospects are uncertain, and additional public finance is needed in any event. While Australia currently draws its climate finance from a growing aid budget, a large scale-up of climate change aid could raise concerns that aid is being diverted from existing development priorities. A carbon levy on international transport could provide considerable revenue and could be implemented unilaterally ahead of a global scheme. Reducing tax breaks for fossil fuel using and producing activities could raise revenue well in excess of Australia’s total climate finance commitment, while improving economic efficiency and cutting carbon emissions. Further, Australia’s exports of coal and other resources provide a very large tax base which could be tapped to a greater extent.
Hole-pair hopping in arrangements of hole-rich/hole-poor domains in a quantum antiferromagnet

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We study the motion of holes in a doped quantum antiferromagnet in the presence of arrangements of hole-rich and hole-poor domains such as the stripe-phase in high-$T_C$ cuprates. When these structures form, it becomes energetically favorable for single holes, pairs of holes or small bound-hole clusters to hop from one hole-rich domain to another due to quantum fluctuations. However, we find that at temperature of approximately 100 K, the probability for bound hole-pair exchange between neighboring hole-rich regions in the stripe phase, is one or two orders of magnitude larger than single-hole or multi-hole droplet exchange. As a result holes in a given hole-rich domain penetrate further into the antiferromagnetically aligned domains when they do it in pairs. At temperature of about 100 K and below bound pairs of holes hop from one hole-rich domain to another with high probability. Therefore our main finding is that the presence of the antiferromagnetic hole-poor domains act as a filter which selects, from the hole-rich domains (where holes form a self-bound liquid), hole pairs which can be exchanged throughout the system. This fluid of bound hole pairs can undergo a superfluid phase ordering at the above mentioned temperature scale.

description: Pteridophyta are vascular plants (plants with xylem and phloem) that reproduce and disperse via spores. In evolution, pteridophyta lie between bryophyta and spermatophyta. Pteridophyta have unique ecological characteristics of high environmental adaptation and barren resistance. Some varieties of pteridophyta have ability of excessive absorption and accumulation of heavy metals such as arsenic (As) and antimony (Sb). Besides, pteridophyta have excellent performance in absorbing such heavy metals as cadmium (Cd), lead (Pb), copper (Cu), and nickel (Ni), and rare earth elements. In this paper, a review was made for application, mechanism, and advantages of pteridophyta in remediation of heavy metal contaminated environments, and prospect and possible research fields of pteridophyta in phytoremediation were discussed.

It made an in-depth elaboration of the data acquisition and transmission system from hardware design, software architecture and principle, main functions and technical parameters. Finally, it came up with four innovation points: (i) intelligent (automatic) matching a variety of communication protocols for environmental monitoring equipment, (ii) realizing multi-protocol and multi-target parallel data transmission, (iii) realizing remote dynamic input of control instructions through wired or wireless network, and (iv) supporting configuration (process) simulation of field equipment DCS operating conditions.
Multi-rater delta: extending the delta nominal measure of agreement between two raters to many raters

description: The need to measure the degree of agreement among R raters who independently classify n subjects within K nominal categories is frequent in many scientific areas. The most popular measures are Cohen's kappa (R = 2), Fleiss' kappa, Conger's kappa and Hubert's kappa (R $\geq$ 2) coefficients, which have several defects. In 2004, the delta coefficient was defined for the case of R = 2, which did not have the defects of Cohen's kappa coefficient. This article extends the coefficient delta from R = 2 raters to R $\geq$ 2. The coefficient multi-rater delta has the same advantages as the coefficient delta with regard to the type kappa coefficients: i) it is intuitive and easy to interpret, because it refers to the proportion of replies that are concordant and non random; ii) the summands which give its value allow the degree of agreement in each category to be measured accurately, with no need to be collapsed; and iii) it is not affected by the marginal imbalance.

description: Caesarean section (CS) rates have risen worldwide in the past two decades, particularly in middle and high-income countries. In addition to changing maternal and health system factors, there is growing evidence that provider factors may contribute to rising unnecessary caesareans. The aim of this review was to assess the evidence for the association between individual provider characteristics, attitudes towards CS and decision-making for CS. A search was conducted in May 2018 in PubMed and Web of Science with 23 papers included in our final review. Our results show that higher anxiety scores and more favourable opinions of CS were associated with increased likelihood of performing CS. These findings highlight a need for appropriate interventions to target provider attitudes towards CS to reduce unnecessary procedures.

description: This article describes the issues of qualifying the crime of sexually transmitted disease or spreading HIV/AIDS and distinguishing it from similar crimes. In particular, the article scientifically analyzes the different aspects of the crime of sexually transmitted disease or spreading HIV/AIDS from similar crimes, i.e. Article 116 of the Criminal Code. In addition, in the article, if sexually transmitted disease or HIV/AIDS infection occurs as a result of touching the honor, in such cases, the criminal's actions are qualified by Articles 113 and 118 of the Criminal Code, that is, as a set of crimes. Also, the article presents reasonable conclusions on the issues of qualification and differentiation of the crime of spreading the sexually transmitted disease or HIV/AIDS from similar crimes.

description: Ecological studies indicate that structurally complex habitats support elevated biodiversity, stability and resilience. The long-term persistence of structured habitats and their importance in maintaining biodiverse hotspots remain underexplored. We combined geohistorical data (dead molluscs, ‘DA’) and contemporary surveys (live molluscs, ‘LA’) to assess the persistence of local seagrass habitats over multi-centennial timescales and to evaluate whether they acted as long-term drivers of biodiversity, stability and resilience of associated fauna. We sampled structured seagrass meadows and open sandy bottoms along Florida's Gulf Coast. Results indicated that (i) LA composition differed significantly between the two habitat types, (ii) LA from seagrass sites were characterized by significantly elevated local biodiversity and significantly higher spatial stability, (iii) DA composition differed significantly between the two habitat types, and (iv) fidelity between LA and DA was significantly greater for seagrass habitats. Contemporary results support the hypotheses that local biodiversity and spatial stability of marine benthos are both elevated in structured seagrass habitats. Geohistorical results suggest that structured habitats persist as local hotspots of elevated biodiversity and faunal stability over centennial-to-millennial timescales; indicating that habitat degradation and concomitant loss within structurally complex marine systems is a key driver of declining biodiversity and resilience.

description: Sugarcane (Saccharum spp.) is a large perennial herbaceous plant that is cultivated in tropical and subtropical regions of the world, and it is also one of the most efficient crops in the world in converting energy from sunlight into chemical energy. As an essential sugar crop and energy crop, sugarcane is receiving an increasing concern for its variety improvement. Traditional breeding and cultivation techniques have contributed a lot to increasing sugarcane yield and sucrose content. In recent years, development and application of biotechnology provide much help for genetic improvement of sugarcane. For convenience of breeders fully knowing advances in studies of sugarcane genetic improvement, this paper elaborated conventional breeding, genomics, GM technology, and molecular marker assisted breeding.

 Type species: Pseudomimonectes robustus Vinogradov, 1960 by monotypy.
 Diagnosis. As with the characters of the family, with the following additions. Known only from one immature specimen. Cuticle relatively thin, translucent. Eyes absent. Antennae 1; peduncle three-articulate. Mandible with rudimentary, one-articulate palp; lacinia mobilis marginally wider than incisor. Maxilliped with weakly developed outer lobes. Pereopods with relatively strong, curved dactyls; that of P7 especially strong and falcate. Uropoda not especially lanceolate; rami with rounded tips.
One species.
 Remarks. This genus was established by Vinogradov (1960) to accommodate his new species P. robustus which, although described from a unique, immature specimen, very similar to species of Mimonectes, possesses characters that preclude it from that genus, as detailed in the key and diagnosis above.

description: To improve understanding of Portulaca pilosa seed germination and lay technical foundation for seedling cultivation, this paper studies the characteristics of dormancy and germination of Portulaca pilosa seed. Research indicates that its primary seed dormancy period is about 25 d, dormancy can be completely released by storage at room temperature for 30 d; the seed is positively photoblastic seed that can’t sprout and can be induced into dormancy in low light conditions; the dormancy-released seed is more sensitive to light when compared with the freshly picked seed, and the germination peak arises 1 d earlier; Portulaca pilosa seed favorites humid conditions, and the higher the soil moisture, the higher the germination rate and germination energy of the seed. The dormancy-released seeds should be used for Portulaca pilosa seedling cultivation, and after the germination is accelerated for 2-3 d in the light conditions, the seeds are sown on the soil surface, and covered with transparent plastic film to keep moisture and light, which is conducive to the emergence of seeds.

description: Estimating the parameters of a model describing a set of observations using a neural network is in general solved in a supervised way. In cases when we do not have access to the model's true parameters this approach can not be applied. Standard unsupervised learning techniques on the other hand, do not produce meaningful or semantic representations that can be associated to the model's parameters. Here we introduce a self-supervised hybrid network that combines traditional neural network elements with analytic or numerical models which represent a physical process to be learned by the system. Self-supervised learning is achieved by generating an internal representation equivalent to the parameters of the physical model. This semantic representation is used to evaluate the model and compare it to the input data during training. The Semantic Autoencoder architecture described here shares the robustness of neural networks while including an explicit model of the data, learns in an unsupervised way and estimates, by construction, parameters with direct physical interpretation. As an illustrative application we perform unsupervised learning for 2D model fitting of exponential light profiles.

description: The Indian agricultural environment has undergone numerous structural changes due to changes in the government policies. One new government policy, Pradhan Mantri Fasal Bima Yojana (PMFBY) could have wide-ranging effects. The study covered the opportunities and constraints for agricultural insurance in India, how PMFBY will be supported and governance will be maintained, and the best strategy for technology to increase farmer’s awareness and successful implementation. Under PMFBY, the government’s focus will be to bring in more farmers without loans (which comprise merely 5 per cent of total farmers at present) under the scheme. A total of 5,000 automated weather stations will be set up across the country. The IRDA (Insurance Regulatory and Development Authority), AIC (Agricultural Insurance Company), and 11 private and four state-owned non-life insurers have expressed their interest to participate in the scheme. Opportunities for agricultural insurance in India are numerous and insurance can be a risk transfer mechanism for Indian farmers that depend heavily on rains especially with the increasing influence of climate change. There is room for experiments and expansion of new insurance products since penetration is low and there also a favorable political environment for insurance and support of agricultural livelihoods.
Modeling Rumors: The No Plane Pentagon French Hoax Case

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The recent astonishing wide adhesion of french people to the rumor claiming `No plane did crash on the Pentagon on September the 11", is given a generic explanation in terms of a model of minority opinion spreading. Using a majority rule reaction-diffusion dynamics, a rumor is shown to invade for sure a social group provided it fulfills simultaneously two criteria. First it must initiate with a support beyond some critical threshold which however, turns out to be always very low. Then it has to be consistent with some larger collective social paradigm of the group. Othewise it just dies out. Both conditions were satisfied in the french case with the associated book sold at more than 200 000 copies in just a few days. The rumor was stopped by the firm stand of most newspaper editors stating it is nonsense. Such an incredible social dynamics is shown to result naturally from an open and free public debate among friends and colleagues. Each one searching for the truth sincerely on a free will basis and without individual biases. The polarization process appears also to be very quick in agreement with reality. It is a very strong anti-democratic reversal of opinion although made quite democratically. The model may apply to a large range of rumors.

description: Growth in the agri-food sector in developing and transition countries is typically impeded by major imperfections in both input and output markets. Providing resources to farmers as part of an interlinked market contract is one way of overcoming these market imperfections. This paper identifies the factors that determine access to these types of contracts for smallholders. The econometric analysis uses data from a unique survey of Polish dairy farm households during transition. The main conclusions are that competition and FDI in the processing sector are major driving forces for the spread of resource-providing contracts.

description: The modification of semiconductor nanostructures with metallic nanocomponents can promote the separation of electron/hole from photoexited semiconductors by forming heterojunctions, thus exhibit enhanced photocatalytic activities and potential applications. In this study, Pt-based NPs, including Pt, PtCu, and PtCuCo are employed as model co-catalysts to comparatively study their capability to enhance the photocatalytic activity of TiO2 nanosheets. It was found that each of Pt, PtCu, and PtCuCo can greatly enhance the photocatalytic activity of TiO2 toward degradation of organic dyes. Using electron spin resonance spectroscopy, we demonstrated that deposition of Pt-based NPs resulted in more production of reactive oxygen species including hydroxyl radicals, superoxide, and singlet oxygen. The enhancing effects of Pt-based NPs on generation of ROS and photocatalytic activity showed same trend: PtCuCo > PtCu > Pt. The mechanism underlying the enhancement differences in Pt-based NPs may be mainly related to electronic structure change of Pt in alloying with Cu and Co. These results are valuable for designing hybrid nanomaterials with high photocatalytic efficiency for applications in water purification and antibacterial products.

description: Adversarial training shows promise as an approach for training models that are robust towards adversarial perturbation. In this paper, we explore some of the practical challenges of adversarial training. We present a sensitivity analysis that illustrates that the effectiveness of adversarial training hinges on the settings of a few salient hyperparameters. We show that the robustness surface that emerges across these salient parameters can be surprisingly complex and that therefore no effective one-size-fits-all parameter settings exist. We then demonstrate that we can use the same salient hyperparameters as tuning knob to navigate the tension that can arise between robustness and accuracy. Based on these findings, we present a practical approach that leverages hyperparameter optimization techniques for tuning adversarial training to maximize robustness while keeping the loss in accuracy within a defined budget.

description: In recent times some economists view Non-Timber Forest Products (NTFPs) extraction and marketing as a better alternative to timber exploitation as a rural livelihood strategy. Harvesting and sale of NTFPs have the potential for accomplishing the dual goals of natural forest conservation and income generation for the rural inhabitants. Meanwhile, realization of these dual goals in Nigeria, require an understanding of how NTFPs functions in the face of marketing, ecological, geographic and institutional constraints. Following a conceptualization of NTFPs, this paper provides a vivid overview of the simultaneous roles of NTFPs in rural livelihood enhancement and forest conservation in Nigeria. It highlights governmental initiatives with respect to conservation, the challenges and prospects of NTFPs as a conservation strategy. Conclusively, the paper suggests that appropriate NTFPs development policies are required to simultaneously address forest depletion and poverty in rural areas of Nigeria.

description: The study examined the effects of interest rate deregulation on agricultural finance and growth in Nigeria. The study specifically ascertained the factors that determine the aggregate credit volume to agriculture within the periods of regulation and deregulation in the Nigerian economy, determined the effects of government finance interventions on agricultural sector performance in the Nigerian economy, determined the periodic effects of macroeconomic financial indicators on Agriculture’s gross domestic product (GDP) contribution to Nigerian economy and estimated the level of real credit growth of agricultural finance in Nigeria. Descriptive statistics, Ordinary Least Squares (OLS) regression technique and chow test were used for data analysis. The chow test showed that there was a significant differential effect on the aggregate credit volume to agricultural sector between the regulated and deregulated regimes. Interest rate was an important determinant of aggregate credit volume to the agricultural sector in Nigeria, especially during the deregulated period but monetary authorities should ensure appropriate determination of interest rate level that will break the double-edge effect of interest rates on savers and investors.
