description: O Desenvolvimento Local ganha espaço dentro das análises de desenvolvimento por propor um desenvolvimento mais calibrado às diferenças culturais, econômicas, políticas e sociais de cada região. No meio rural brasileiro o agronegócio desponta como um dos mais eficientes e competitivos do mundo, mas também a pobreza rural como uma das maiores mazelas da sua sociedade e nessa realidade a pecuária leiteira é uma atividade importante, social e economicamente por abranger uma grande parcela de pequenos produtores. Dentro deste contexto o objetivo do trabalho foi analisar e desvendar o papel da Associação de Produtores de Leite de Águas Belas como agente de desenvolvimento local na ótica dos atores envolvidos. A metodologia utilizada foi estudo de caso, utilizando observação, entrevistas semi-estruturadas e conversas informais. O estudo evidencia que a Associação cumpre uma série de indicadores de desenvolvimento, geração de emprego e renda, acesso a crédito rural, acesso a novas tecnologias, parcerias institucionais importantes, que demonstram um papel fundamental no desenvolvimento local. Entretanto a abrangência da associação ainda é muito limitada aos associados, a sustentabilidade social é frágil (incidência de participação objetiva e baixa participação subjetiva).

description: Comets contain abundant amounts of organic and inorganic species. Many of the volatile molecules in comets have also been observed in the interstellar medium and some of them even with similar relative abundances, indicating formation under similar conditions or even sharing a common chemical pathway. There is a growing amount of evidence that suggests comets inherit and preserve substantial fractions of materials inherited from previous evolutionary phases, potentially indicating that commonplace processes occurred throughout comet-forming regions. Through impacts, part of this material has also been transported to the inner planetary system, including the terrestrial planets. While comets have been ruled out as a major contributor to terrestrial ocean water, substantial delivery of volatile species to the Earth's atmosphere, and as a consequence also organic molecules to its biomass, appears more likely. Comets contain many species of pre-biotic relevance and molecules that are related to biological processes on Earth, and have hence been proposed as potential indicators for the presence of biological processes in the search of extraterrestrial life. While the delivery of cometary material to Earth may have played a crucial role in the emergence of life, the presence of such alleged biosignature molecules in the abiotical environment of comets complicates the detection of life elsewhere in the universe.

description: This paper investigates the modeling and analysis of a solid-fuel ramjet (SFRJ) using analytical theory and computational fluid dynamics (CFD). The primary objectives of this study are to first apply analytical theories of an SFRJ in combination with combustion physics from NASA CEA software to establish a foundation for analytically modeling the thrust of an SFRJ with a specified bypass ratio. Secondly, this study aims to model the thrust output of an SFRJ using a simplified backward-facing step computational model consisting of a single inlet and outlet through computational analysis. In the computational model, combustion is modeled as wall heat addition, and thermal choking effects leading to engine unstart conditions are predicted. While there are more complex SFRJ modeling approaches, consideration of computational cost is an important aspect of this work, since these models will be coupled with a control system. This research serves as a foundational step in a broader investigation aimed at coupling SFRJ thrust dynamics with control systems for regulating thrust under uncertain operating conditions.

description: The melting of the ice sheets covering Greenland and Antarctica are primary drivers of sea level rise. Predicting the rate of ice loss depends on modeling the ice dynamics. Ice penetrating radar provides the ability to capture images through the ice sheet, down to the bedrock. Historical environmental and climate perturbations cause small changes to the dielectric constant of ice, which are visually manifested as layers of varying brightness in the radar imagery. To understand how the flow of ice has progressed between neighboring image slices, glaciologists use Fence Diagrams to visualize several cross-sections at once. Here, we describe the immersive virtual reality (VR) fence diagrams we have developed. The goal of our system is to enable glaciologists to make sense of these data and thereby predict future ice loss.

description: We extend the previously obtained results for the thermodynamic potential of hot QCD in the limit of large number of fermions to non-vanishing chemical potential. We give exact results for the thermal pressure in the entire range of temperature and chemical potential for which the presence of a Landau pole is negligible numerically. In addition we compute linear and non-linear quark susceptibilities at zero chemical potential, and the entropy at small temperatures. We compare with the available perturbative results and determine their range of applicability. Our numerical accuracy is sufficiently high to check and verify existing results, including the recent perturbative results by Vuorinen on quark number susceptibilities and the older results by Freedman and McLerran on the pressure at zero temperature and high chemical potential. We also obtain a number of perturbative coefficients at sixth order in the coupling that have not yet been calculated analytically. In the case of both non-zero temperature and non-zero chemical potential, we investigate the range of validity of a scaling behaviour noticed recently in lattice calculations by Fodor, Katz, and Szabo at moderately large chemical potential and find that it breaks down rather abruptly at $μ_q \gtrsim πT$, which points to a presumably generic obstruction for extrapolating data from small to large chemical potential. At sufficiently small temperatures $T \ll μ_q$, we find dominating non-Fermi-liquid contributions to the interaction part of the entropy, which exhibits strong nonlinearity in the temperature and an excess over the free-theory value.

description: we present new VLA observations at 1.4 GHz confirming the presence of a radio halo at the centre of the cluster A3562, in the core of the Shapley Concentration. We also report a detailed multifrequency radio study of the head tail galaxy J1333--3141, which is completely embedded in the halo emission. The radio halo has an irregular shape, and a largest linear size of $\sim$ 620 kpc, which is among the smallest found in the literature. The source has a steep spectrum, i.e. $α_{843 MHz}^{1.4 GHz} \sim 2$, and its total radio power, P$_{1.4 GHz} \sim 2 \times10^{23}$ W Hz$^{-1}$, is the lowest known to date.The radio power of the halo and the X-ray parameters of the cluster, such as L$_X$ and kT, nicely fit the correlations found in the literature for the other halo clusters, extending them to low radio powers. We found that the total number of electrons injected in the cluster environment by the head--tail source is enough to feed the halo, if we assume that the galaxy has been radio active over a large fraction of its crossing time. We discuss possible origins of the radio halo in the light of the two--phase model (Brunetti et al. 2001) and propose that the observed scenario is the result of a young source at the beginning of the reacceleration phase.

description: Earth’s ice sheets are the largest contributor to sea level rise. For this reason, understanding the flow and topology of ice sheets is crucial for the development of accurate models and predictions. In order to aid in the generation of such models, ice penetrating radar is used to collect images of the ice sheet through both airborne and ground-based platforms. Glaciologists then take these images and visualize them in 3D fence diagrams on a flat 2D screen. We aim to consider the benefits that an XR visualization of these diagrams may provide to enable better data comprehension, annotation, and collaborative work. In this paper, we discuss our initial development and evaluation of such an XR system.
Superconductivity by Hidden Spin Fluctuations in Electron-Doped Iron Selenide

description: Berg, Metlitski and Sachdev, Science 338, 1606 (2012), have shown that the exchange of hidden spin fluctuations by conduction electrons with two orbitals can result in high-temperature superconductivity in copper-oxide materials. We introduce a similar model for high-temperature iron-selenide superconductors that are electron doped. Conduction electrons carry the minimal 3d xz and 3d yz iron-atom orbitals. Low-energy hidden spin fluctuations at the checkerboard wavevector Q_AF result from nested Fermi surfaces at the center and at the corner of the unfolded (one-iron) Brillouin zone. Magnetic frustration from super-exchange interactions via the selenium atoms stabilize hidden spin fluctuations at Q_AF versus true spin fluctuations. At half filling, Eliashberg theory based purely on the exchange of hidden spin fluctuations reveals a Lifshitz transition to electron/hole Fermi surface pockets at the corner of the folded (two-iron) Brillouin zone, but with vanishing spectral weights. The underlying hidden spin-density wave groundstate is therefore a Mott insulator. Upon electron doping, Eliashberg theory finds that the spectral weights of the hole Fermi surface pockets remain vanishingly small, while the spectral weights of the larger electron Fermi surface pockets become appreciable. This prediction is therefore consistent with the observation of electron Fermi surface pockets alone in electron-doped iron selenide by angle-resolved photoemission spectroscopy (ARPES). Eliashberg theory also finds an instability to S+- superconductivity at electron doping, with isotropic Cooper pairs that alternate in sign between the visible electron Fermi surface pockets and the faint hole Fermi surface pockets. Comparison with the isotropic energy gaps observed in electron-doped iron selenide by ARPES and by scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) is consistent with short-range hidden magnetic order.

description: We report results on the timing and spectral analysis of observations of the millisecond pulsar PSR B1821-24 with RXTE, BeppoSAX and Chandra. The X-ray light curve is characterized by two narrow peaks at a phase distance of 0.452+/-0.002. The average pulsed emission, over the range 1.6-20 keV, is well represented by a single power law with a photon index alpha=1.30 +0.05 -0.02 and unabsorbed (2-10 keV) pulsed X-ray flux of 3.9x10^(-13) erg cm^(-2) s^(-1). We searched for a possible bunching of X-ray photons to verify if the X ray emission has a time structure similar to that of giant pulses and found a negative result.

The theoretical results are in a good agreement with the obtained experimental data.

description: Neste início do século XXI, a cotonicultura mineira vem reconquistando espaço e apostando numa retomada de crescimento, objetivando a auto-suficiência no abastecimento da indústria têxtil do estado. Desta forma, o objetivo geral deste trabalho consiste em analisar a competitividade da cotonicultura na região do Triângulo Mineiro/MG. Para tanto, utilizou-se como metodologia a Matriz de Análise de Políticas (MAP), desenvolvida por MONKE E PERSON (1989). Os resultados da MAP mostram que a cotonicultura mineira não é competitiva a nível internacional. E ainda, revela-se uma desproteção de 57% , isto significa, que os produtores da região, precisam de benefício desta mesma ordem, para conceder a competitividade ao produto. Portanto, através deste estudo, nota-se que a não competitividade do produto se deve principalmente por parte do governo. Para a região em estudo ser competitiva não basta só ter tecnologia de ponta, mas também ações públicas que vêem a beneficiar e dar competitividade ao produto.
An asymptotic expansion for the fractional $p$-Laplacian and for gradient dependent nonlocal operators

description: Mean value formulas are of great importance in the theory of partial differential equations: many very useful results are drawn, for instance, from the well known equivalence between harmonic functions and mean value properties. In the nonlocal setting of fractional harmonic functions, such an equivalence still holds, and many applications are now-days available. The nonlinear case, corresponding to the $p$-Laplace operator, has also been recently investigated, whereas the validity of a nonlocal, nonlinear, counterpart remains an open problem. In this paper, we propose a formula for the \emph{nonlocal, nonlinear mean value kernel}, by means of which we obtain an asymptotic representation formula for harmonic functions in the viscosity sense, with respect to the fractional (variational) $p$-Laplacian (for $p\geq 2$) and to other gradient dependent nonlocal operators.

description: We obtain exact analytical results for lattices of maps with couplings that decay with distance as $r^{-α}$. We analyze the effect of the coupling range on the system dynamics through the Lyapunov spectrum. For lattices whose elements are piecewise linear maps, we get an algebraic expression for the Lyapunov spectrum. When the local dynamics is given by a nonlinear map, the Lyapunov spectrum for a completely synchronized state is analytically obtained. The critical lines characterizing the synchronization transition are determined from the expression for the largest transversal Lyapunov exponent. In particular, it is shown that in the thermodynamical limit, such transition is only possible for sufficiently long-range interactions, namely, for $α\le alpha_c

description: Topological qubits are inherently resistant to noise and errors. However, experimental demonstrations have been elusive as their realization and control is highly complex. In the present work, we demonstrate the emergence of topological $X$-states in the long-time response of a locally perturbed quantum impurity model. The emergence of the double-qubit state is heralded by the lack of decay of the response function as well as the out-of-time order correlator signifying the trapping of excitations, and hence information in local edge modes.

description: The partially [d6, 2] and fully [d20, 3] deuterated analogues of (QuinH)2CuBr4·2H2O (d0, 1) were prepared and their crystal structures were determined [Quin = quinoline]. In both compounds, there is a clear disorder in the positions of the bromide ions which was resolved. This led to a reexamination of the structure of the parent, fully protonated compound (1) where a small percentage of previously unrecognized disorder was also observed and the structure rerefined. Variable temperature magnetization measurements over the range 1.8–310 K indicate that all three materials behave as magnetically well-isolated layers that can be evaluated using the 2D-quantum Heisenberg antiferromagnetic model. Final fitting results for the partially (J = −5.96(5) K) and fully (J = −5.77(2) K) deuterated compounds indicate slightly weaker exchange compared to the protonated compound (J = −6.17(3) K), likely as a result of the increased disorder in the deuterated phases.

description: Event-scheduling algorithms can compute in continuous time the next occurrence of points (as events) of a counting process based on their current conditional intensity. In particular event-scheduling algorithms can be adapted to perform the simulation of finite neuronal networks activity. These algorithms are based on Ogata's thinning strategy \cite{Oga81}, which always needs to simulate the whole network to access the behaviour of one particular neuron of the network. On the other hand, for discrete time models, theoretical algorithms based on Kalikow decomposition can pick at random influencing neurons and perform a perfect simulation (meaning without approximations) of the behaviour of one given neuron embedded in an infinite network, at every time step. These algorithms are currently not computationally tractable in continuous time. To solve this problem, an event-scheduling algorithm with Kalikow decomposition is proposed here for the sequential simulation of point processes neuronal models satisfying this decomposition. This new algorithm is applied to infinite neuronal networks whose finite time simulation is a prerequisite to realistic brain modeling.

description: We apply generative adversarial network (GAN) technology to build an event generator that simulates particle production in electron-proton scattering that is free of theoretical assumptions about underlying particle dynamics. The difficulty of efficiently training a GAN event simulator lies in learning the complicated patterns of the distributions of the particles physical properties. We develop a GAN that selects a set of transformed features from particle momenta that can be generated easily by the generator, and uses these to produce a set of augmented features that improve the sensitivity of the discriminator. The new Feature-Augmented and Transformed GAN (FAT-GAN) is able to faithfully reproduce the distribution of final state electron momenta in inclusive electron scattering, without the need for input derived from domain-based theoretical assumptions. The developed technology can play a significant role in boosting the science of existing and future accelerator facilities, such as the Electron-Ion Collider.

description: We calculate the branching ratios of the hadronic Λ_b decays to ηand η^\prime in the factorization approximation where the form factors are estimated via QCD sum rules and the pole model. Our results indicate that, contrary to B\to Kη^{(\prime)} decays, the branching ratios for Λ_b\toΛηand Λ_b\toΛη^\prime are more or less the same in the hadronic Λ_b transitions. We estimate the branching ratio of Λ_b\toΛη^{(\prime)} to be 10.80 (10.32)\times 10^{-6} in QCD sum rules, and 2.78 (2.96)\times 10^{-6} in the pole model. We also estimate the nonfactorizable gluon fusion contribution to Λ_b\toΛη^\prime decay by dividing this process into strong and weak vertices. Our results point to an enhancement of more than an order of magnitude due to this mechanism.

description: A generalization of the multiphase chemical evolution model applied to a wide set of theoretical galaxies is shown. This set of models has been computed by using the so-called Universal Rotation Curve from Persic, Salucci & Steel to calculate the radial mass distributions of each theoretical galaxy. By assuming that the molecular cloud and star formation efficiencies depend on the morphological type of each galaxy, we construct a bi-parametric grid of models whose results are valid in principle for any spiral galaxy, of given maximum rotation velocity or total mass, and morphological type.

description: This paper focuses on the challenge of driver safety on the road and presents a novel system for driver drowsiness detection. In this system, to detect the falling sleep state of the driver as the sign of drowsiness, Convolutional Neural Networks (CNN) are used with regarding the two goals of real-time application, including high accuracy and fastness. Three networks introduced as a potential network for eye status classifcation in which one of them is a Fully Designed Neural Network (FD-NN) and others use Transfer Learning in VGG16 and VGG19 with extra designed layers (TL-VGG). Lack of an available and accurate eye dataset strongly feels in the area of eye closure detection. Therefore, a new comprehensive dataset proposed. The experimental results show the high accuracy and low computational complexity of the eye closure estimation and the ability of the proposed framework on drowsiness detection.

description: Satellite-based quantitative precipitation estimates (QPE), such as NASA’s Integrated Multi-satellitE Retrievals for GPM (IMERG), provide easily accessible continental-to-global precipitation forcings for ?ood prediction and other hydrologic applications. Nevertheless, when used in hydrologic prediction, uncertainty in satellite-based QPE often leads to signi?cant bias. This forcing uncertainty is further blended with other error sources, including process representation, parameter values, and their interactions. The identi?cation and decoupling of these uncertainties can enhance our understanding of their respective impacts, thereby improving hydrologic prediction. Addressing this issue worldwide is challenging, however, largely due to the scarcity of precipitation ground truth and complex uncertainty interactions. Therefore, we propose an e?cient uncertainty quanti?cation framework for ensemble stream?ow prediction, which keeps di?erent uncertainty sources separable through hierarchical Bayesian inference. Satellite-based QPE uncertainty is characterized by a novel near-realtime quasi-global satellite-only ensemble precipitation dataset (STREAM-Sat), which is completely independent of ground-based precipitation measurements. Model parameter uncertainty in a distributed physics-based hydrologic model is inferred by an Iterative Ensemble Smoother (IES). To illustrate the impact and limitations of precipitation uncertainty, we compared ensemble stream?ow predictions driven by both model parameter and satellite precipitation uncertainties and ensemble stream?ow predictions driven by model parameter uncertainty and deterministic QPE. We demonstrate that the quanti?cation of satellite-based QPE uncertainty notably improves the accuracy and reliability of stream?ow predictions. This study also lays a foundation for satellite-based stream?ow prediction in ungauged regions.

description: Using the Hubble space Telescope Fine Guidance Sensor, we have measured the trigonometric parallax of the bright cataclysmic variable 1223 Sgr. The absolute parallax is pi(abs)= 1.96+-0.18mas, making V1223 Sgr the most distant CV with a well-determined trigonometric parallax. This distance, a Lutz-Kelker correction, and the previously measured extinction yield an absolute visual high-state magnitude Mv=4.0+-0.2. We outline a model, which is consistent with the observed spin-down of the white dwarf and provides for much of the UV/optical emission by reverberation of X-rays. From previous X-ray and UV/optical data, we derive an accretion luminosity Lacc=(2.6+-0.8)e34 erg/s, a white dwarf mass M_1=0.93+-0.12Msun, and an accretion rate dot M=(1.4+-0.3)e17 g/s.

description: A simple and efficient method for the synthesis of aryl amides via oxidative copper-catalyzed coupling of commercially available aryl boronic acids and bench stable Nα-protected amino-acid azides is reported. The potential utility of this protocol is demonstrated through a survey of diversely substituted aryl boronic acids and several side-chain functionalized amino-acid azides, leading to the preparation of the desired amidated products in good to excellent yields. This amide synthesis is suitable for the preparation of amides (such as peptide aryl amides and sterically hindered amino acids) that are not or hardly accessible via classical approaches.
Local criticality close to a quantum Lifshitz point

subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Near quantum Lifshitz points the stiffness of the lifetime of the spin fluctuations is very small. This gives rise to a regime where the critical fluctuations are local in space but extended along the time directions. The Fermi liquid properties in this local quantum regime is governed by a single energy scale, the coherence temperature. These results are relevant for heavy fermions and frustrated systems whenever there is a competition between different instabilities in $q$-space.
