Separating the kinetic SZ effect from primary CMB fluctuations

description: In the present work, we propose a new method aiming at extracting the kinetic Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (KSZ) temperature fluctuations embedded in the primary anisotropies of the cosmic microwave background (CMB). We base our study on simulated maps without noise and we consider very simple and minimal assumptions. Our method essentially takes benefit from the spatial correlation between KSZ and the Compton parameter distribution associated with the thermal Sunyaev-Zel'dovich (TSZ) effect of the galaxy clusters, the later can be obtained by means of multi-frequency based component separation techniques. We reconstruct the KSZ signal by interpolating the CMB fluctuations without making any hypothesis besides the CMB fluctuations are Gaussian distributed. We present two ways of estimating the KSZ fluctuations, after the interpolation step. In the first way we use a blind technique based on canonical Principal Component Analysis, while the second uses a minimisation criterion based on the fact that KSZ dominates a small angular scales and that it follows a non-Gaussian distribution. We show using the correlation between the input and reconstructed KSZ map that the latter can be reconstructed in a very satisfactory manner (average correlation coefficient between 0.62 and 0.90), furthermore both the retrieved KSZ power spectrum and temperature fluctuation distribution are in quite good agreement with the original signal. The ratio between the input and reconstructed power spectrum is indeed very close to one up to a multipole $\ell\sim 200$ in the best case. The method presented here can be considered as a promising starting point to identify in CMB observations the temperature fluctuation associated with the KSZ effect.

description: Given an exact functor between triangulated categories which admits both adjoints and whose cotwist is either zero or an autoequivalence, we show how to associate a unique full triangulated subcategory of the codomain on which the functor becomes either Frobenius or spherical, respectively. We illustrate our construction with examples coming from projective bundles and smooth blowups. This work generalises results about spherical subcategories obtained by Martin Kalck, David Ploog and the first author.

description: U.S. per capita fluid milk consumption has decreased since the 1940s. This study uses data collected between 1977 and 2008 from USDA surveys to investigate whether generational change is a contributing factor. More recent generations are found to consume less whole milk and less lower-fat milk, controlling for their age at the time of the survey and other consumption determinants. These findings underscore the importance of checkoff programs, the National School Lunch Program, and other initiatives that encourage children to consume milk. Our methodology may also be adapted to analyze long-run trends in the consumption of other foods.

description: We report a numerical study of the vortex system in the two dimensional II-type superconductors. We have proposed a phenomenological model that takes into account quantum fluctuations of Abrikosov's vortices. The results of the quantum Monte-Carlo simulations by the SSE algorithm show that the thermal fluctuations are dominated by quantum fluctuations at low temperatures. In particular, we demonstrate the possibility of the quantum melting transition for vortex system in the temperature region where thermal melting transition is improbable.
General model of vertical distribution of stars in the Milky Way using complete Jeans equations

description: The self-consistent vertical density distribution in a thin, isothermal disc is typically given by a sech^2 law, as shown in the classic work by Spitzer (1942). This is obtained assuming that the radial and vertical motions are decoupled and only the vertical term is used in the Poisson equation. We argue that in the region of low density as in the outer disc this treatment is no longer valid. We develop a general, complete model that includes both radial and vertical terms in the Poisson equation and write these in terms of the full radial and vertical Jeans equations which take account of the non-flat observed rotation curve, the random motions, and the cross term that indicates the tilted stellar velocity ellipsoid. We apply it to the Milky Way and show that these additional effects change the resulting density distribution significantly, such that the mid-plane density is higher and the disc thickness (HWHM) is lower by 30-40% in the outer Galaxy. Further, the vertical distribution is no longer given as a sech^2 function even for an isothermal case. These predicted differences are now within the verification limit of new, high-resolution data for example from GAIA and hence could be confirmed.

description: While considerable research has estimated liquidity costs of futures trading, little comparable research is available about options markets. This study determines effective bid-ask spreads in options and futures markets for Kansas City Board of Trade (KCBT) wheat. Effective bid-ask spreads are estimates of the actual liquidity cost of a round-trip order. Option liquidity costs are estimated using a new measure of effective spreads developed for options markets. Futures effective spreads are estimated using eight different measures developed in previous studies. Estimated effective bid-ask spreads of options contracts are at least double the effective bid-ask spreads of open-outcry futures contracts.

description: We use the Suita conjecture (now a theorem) to prove that for any domain $Ω\subset \mathbb{C}$ its Bergman kernel $K(\cdot, \cdot)$ satisfies $K(z_0, z_0) = \hbox{Volume}(Ω)^{-1}$ for some $z_0 \in Ω$ if and only if $Ω$ is either a disk minus a (possibly empty) closed polar set or $\mathbb{C}$ minus a (possibly empty) closed polar set. When $Ω$ is bounded with $C^{\infty}$-boundary, we provide a simple proof of this using the zero set of the Szegö kernel. Finally, we show that this theorem fails to hold in $\mathbb{C}^n$ for $n > 1$ by constructing a bounded complete Reinhardt domain (with algebraic boundary) which is strongly convex and not biholomorphic to the unit ball $\mathbb{B}^n \subset \mathbb{C}^n$.

An analysis of chaos via contact transformation

Subjects: subject: Chaotic Dynamics (nlin.CD)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Transition from chaotic to quasi-periodic phase in modified Lorenz model is analyzed by performing the contact transformation such that the trajectory in ${\Vec R}^3$ is projected on ${\Vec R}^2$. The relative torsion number and the characteristics of the template are measured using the eigenvector of the Jacobian instead of vectors on moving frame along the closed trajectory. Application to the circulation of a fluid in a convection loop and oscillation of the electric field in single-mode laser system are performed. The time series of the eigenvalues of the Jacobian and the scatter plot of the trajectory in the transformed coordinate plane $X-Z$ in the former and $|X|-|Z|$ in the latter, allow to visualize characteristic pattern change at the transition from quasi-periodic to chaotic. In the case of single mode laser, we observe the correlation between the critical movement of the eigenvalues of the Jacobian in the complex plane and intermittency.

Remarks. In examining specimens of D. pictus, van Rooijen & Vogel (2008) described D. haas i as a new species on the basis of several morphological characters. Dendrelaphis haasi was first recorded in Singapore in 2011 based on two museum specimens at LKCNHM and from photographs of two live specimens (Lim & Cheong 2011). The two specimens are ZRC.2.3744 which was collected by Lee Kit Soon from an unknown locality in April 1935 and ZRC.2.3760 which is dated “before 1940”. The first live individual was photographed on 11 March 2009 at LPF, marking a rediscovery of at least 69 years after the second museum specimen (Lim & Cheong 2011). The second live individual was photographed on 16 October 2010 at USRP (Lim & Cheong 2011). Since then, three additional observations of D. haasi were documented, one at TRF on 9 March 2013 (Yeo 2013), and two at Venus Loop on 14 September 2014 (Tan 2014) and on 3 April 2016 (Sankar & Ng 2016). The individual illustrated in Figure 16H was seen at WNP on 20 July 2020 (A. Figueroa pers. obs.). Due to modest similarities to D. pictus, there is the possibility that some earlier records of D. pictus may represent D. haasi.

description: This paper investigates factors that impact marketing performance in the Canadian wheat market. Using data provided by the Canadian Wheat Board (CWB) for six crop years, results indicate that producers were not able to profitably use all marketing contracts offered by the CWB, earlier pricing tended to generate better performance, there was a negative relationship between activeness and performance (suggesting overconfidence in marketing skills), and performance was generally worse in volatile crop years. Further analysis reveals some of these findings differ when outperforming and underperforming producers are investigated separately, particularly with respect to activeness and volatility.

description: A review of methods for finding general expressions for matrix elements (non-diagonal with respect to configurations included) of any one- and two-particle operator for an arbitrary number of shells in an atomic configuration is given. These methods are compared in various aspects, and the advantages or shortcomings of each particular method are discussed. Efficient method to find the abovementioned quantities in LS coupling is presented, based on the use of symmetry properties of operators and matrix elements in three spaces (orbital, spin and quasispin), second quantization in coupled tensorial form, graphical technique and Wick's theorem. This allows to efficiently account for correlation effects practically for any atom and ion of periodical table.

description: Most Americans consume diets that do not meet Federal dietary recommendations. A common explanation is that healthier foods are more expensive than less healthy foods. To investigate this assumption, the authors compare prices of healthy and less healthy foods using three different price metrics: the price of food energy ($/calorie), the price of edible weight ($/100 edible grams), and the price of an average portion ($/average portion). They also calculate the cost of meeting the recommendations for each food group. For all metrics except the price of food energy, the authors find that healthy foods cost less than less healthy foods (defined for this study as foods that are high in saturated fat, added sugar, and/or sodium, or that contribute little to meeting dietary recommendations).

description: Optically-induced magnetic resonances in non-magnetic media have unlocked magnetic light-matter interactions and led to new technologies in many research fields. Previous proposals for the levitation of nanoscale particles without structured illumination have worked on the basis of epsilon-near-zero surfaces or anisotropic materials but these carry with them significant fabrication difficulties. We report the optical levitation of a magnetic dipole over a wide range of realistic materials, including bulk metals, thereby relieving these difficulties. The repulsion is independent of surface losses and we propose an experiment to detect this force which consists of a core-shell nanoparticle, exhibiting a magnetic resonance, in close proximity to a gold substrate under plane wave illumination. We anticipate the use of this phenomenon in new nanomechanical devices.

description: The detrimental consequences associated with industrial models of food production are becoming more difficult to ignore. In response, one dominant approach to mitigating the myriad environmental, social, and ethical harms relating to food has sought to increase the efficiency of agricultural outputs through scientific and technological innovation. Although technology certainly has some role to play in any vision of a sustainable future, technocratic approaches to problem solving are insufficient—and arguably inappropriate—for addressing many of the kinds of complex challenges that we face today. There are recent indications that both agri-food law and policy and innovation policy are being taken more seriously in Canada, which creates an opportunity to reflect more deliberately on their ends and means. This dissertation explores the topic of how laws, policies, and other tools of governance can work to better align technological innovations in the agri-food sector with shared environmental goals and ethical aspirations. Taking a critical legal perspective closely informed by feminist insights and the work of existing, analogous justice movements, I examine several interlinkages between technology, law, the environment, and society to evaluate some of the failings of existing approaches to food systems transformation and to offer a contribution to the conversation about alternative pathways. Given the context-specific nature of food systems and food systems governance, my focus is primarily on Canada, but the universal importance of food in a globalized world renders some comparative and transnational discussion unavoidable. I use case studies and discourse analysis to demonstrate that, when considered through a justice-oriented lens, several of the new and emerging technologies being championed in the agri-food sector may not be as beneficial as their proponents claim. Instead, they may serve to retrench injustice and cement existing, exploitative power structures, making them more difficult to challenge and change later down the line. Thus, if technologies are to serve public instead of private interests in the ways they are incentivized, designed, regulated, and used, we will need to see broad systemic and structural reforms informed by thoughtful shifts in our values and priorities, rather than merely reactive adjustments to our policies and practices. Though this undertaking will be difficult, it is not impossible; this dissertation offers one way to facilitate the process of seeding change for environmental sustainability and technological justice.

These results improve earlier limits by one order of magnitude and restrict extensions of the SM in which \nueb emission from mu+ decay is allowed with considerable strength. The decay \mupdeb as source for the \nueb signal observed in the LSND experiment can be excluded.

description: Agricultural Resource Management Survey (ARMS) data for 2007 highlight the production\r practices and costs related to the cotton enterprise, as well as the characteristics of\r U.S. cotton farm operations. Combining ARMS data with ERS cost-of-cotton production\r estimates for 2007 provides a 1-year snapshot of cotton producers. For instance, low-cost producers reported higher yields and lower levels of major inputs per planted cotton acre than mid- and high-cost producers in 2007. Southwest producers accounted for a larger share of the smaller U.S. cotton crop in 2007 due to their lower cotton production costs and lack of alternative crops. Most U.S. cotton is produced on very large diversified farm\r operations, with cotton often constituting a small share of these operations’ total acres. In contrast, producers with larger cotton enterprises in 2007 relied more on their cotton crop, making them vulnerable to changes in cotton prices or yields. These producers, however, were also more likely to offset greater risks by purchasing revenue insurance on cotton.

description: Data on individuals’ private shopping choices are often used to draw conclusions about their desires for food policies. The purpose of this paper is to test this often-implicit assumption using data from a nationwide survey about animal cloning. We find that although individuals’ private choices indicate a strong desire to avoid meat and milk from cloned cattle, public choices predict that only 40.29% have a positive WTP for such a ban. The results suggest caution is necessary when inferring public preferences from private choices.
Models for extremely metal-poor halo stars

description: Two alternative scenarios concerning the origin and evolution of extremely metal-poor halo stars are investigated. The first one assumes that the stars have been completely metal-free initially and produced observed carbon and nitrogen overabundances during the peculiar core helium flash typical for low-mass Population-III stars. The second scenario assumes that the initial composition resulted from a mixture of primordial material with ejecta from a single primordial supernovae. Both scenarios are shown to have problems in reproducing C, N, and O abundances simultaneously, and both disagree with observed 12C/13C-ratios,though in different directions. We concentrate on the most iron-poor, carbon-rich object of this class, HE0107-5240, and conclude that the second scenario presently offers the more promising approach to understand these objects, in particular because evolutionary tracks match observations very well.

Zero-Shot Semantic Parsing for Instructions

Subjects: subject: Computation and Language (cs.CL)

description: We consider a zero-shot semantic parsing task: parsing instructions into compositional logical forms, in domains that were not seen during training. We present a new dataset with 1,390 examples from 7 application domains (e.g. a calendar or a file manager), each example consisting of a triplet: (a) the application's initial state, (b) an instruction, to be carried out in the context of that state, and (c) the state of the application after carrying out the instruction. We introduce a new training algorithm that aims to train a semantic parser on examples from a set of source domains, so that it can effectively parse instructions from an unknown target domain. We integrate our algorithm into the floating parser of Pasupat and Liang (2015), and further augment the parser with features and a logical form candidate filtering logic, to support zero-shot adaptation. Our experiments with various zero-shot adaptation setups demonstrate substantial performance gains over a non-adapted parser.

description: Food prepared away from home (FAFH)—whether eaten in restaurants, fast-food and\r other locations, or as take-out or delivery to be eaten at home—is now a routine part of the diets of most Americans, accounting for 41 percent of food expenditures and 32 percent of caloric intake. This report analyzes data on individuals 2 years of age and older from two national food consumption surveys (one conducted in 1977-78 and another in 2005-08) to assess changes in the consumption and nutritional quality of FAFH versus food prepared at home (FAH). In the past three decades, FAH has changed more in response to dietary guidance, becoming significantly lower in fat content and richer in calcium, whereas FAFH did not. In 2005-08, FAFH was also higher in saturated fat, sodium, and cholesterol and lower in dietary fi ber than FAH. The increased popularity and lower nutritional\r: quality of FAFH is prompting new health promotion strategies, such as menu labeling.

The Path to a New Awakening: B.R. Ambedkar's Transformation of Buddhist Philosophy

description: The objective of this thesis is to analyze the philosophical implications of Ambedkar’s approach to Buddhism. This approach created a new social philosophy based on Buddhist ideas and a political commitment to social justice, particularly for the Dalits of India. What was the purpose of this social philosophy? To transform Buddhist philosophy? Or rather, to oppose Brahmanism and empower the lower castes? After a twenty-year-long study of Indian society and history, and Indian philosophical and religious traditions, Ambedkar came to the conclusion that Buddhism could have the power to transform the situation of the Untouchables. Why did he think that Buddhism would have this radical transformative impact not only for Dalits, but for Indian society as a whole? In 1956, in what became a historical event, he led a movement of conversion of more than five hundred thousand Untouchables from Hinduism to Buddhism. Ambekdar saw Buddhism as a way and as a tool to empower the lower castes of India. But what type of Buddhism did he envision? In 1956, in that historical event, Ambedkar founded what he called Navayana Buddhism. He used the word Navayana to refer to the birth of a new school. Nava means “new,” Yana means “vehicle”. Was he indeed creating a new yana, or new vehicle? What type of Buddhist school was this? What innovations did he introduce? Is the result still Buddhism, given Ambedkar's vision? This thesis aims to address all these questions.
