description: The aim of this paper is to evaluate the effect of rainfall and agricultural shocks on consumption growth in Madagascar. We are also interested in the impact of local endowments in infrastructures and social services on consumption growth. To achieve this goal, a micro model of household consumption growth is estimated thanks to household panel data collected by the Reseau des Observatoires Ruraux (ROR) between 1999 and 2004. Additional data sources include the 2001 communes census organized by the Ilo program of Cornell University. Altogether these different data sources make an unusually rich data set, at least when considered with developing country standards. We use panel data fixed effect estimation technique to remove unobserved household and community level time invariant heterogeneity. We find that production shocks have a substantial impact on consumption growth and we find sign of persistence of rainfall shocks. Roads and education seems to improve household’s consumption growth and remotness decreases it.

description: The article makes an attempt to answer the question: how direct payments affected the land market in Poland? The first part of the article explains the theoretical aspects of direct payments as an instrument of agricultural policy and their prospective effectiveness. Also the special character of the solutions adopted by Poland in relation with the use of this instrument was shown. The second part presents the main problems of the land market in Poland, taking into account both the supply and the demand factors of this market. The third part concentrates on searching for the cause-effect relations between the direct subsidies and the changes in the land market in Poland. They suggest, among others, that the forecasts regarding the retaining of land in households have been confirmed in practice.

description: We study gapped boundaries characterized by "fermionic condensates" in 2+1 d topological order. Mathematically, each of these condensates can be described by a super commutative Frobenius algebra. We systematically obtain the species of excitations at the gapped boundary/ junctions, and study their endomorphisms (ability to trap a Majorana fermion) and fusion rules, and generalized the defect Verlinde formula to a twisted version. We illustrate these results with explicit examples. We also connect these results with topological defects in super modular invariant CFTs. To render our discussion self-contained, we provide a pedagogical review of relevant mathematical results, so that physicists without prior experience in tensor category should be able to pick them up and apply them readily

description: In this paper, we present a first comparison of different Adaptive Optics (AO) concepts to reach a given scientific specification for 3D spectroscopy on Extremely Large Telescope (ELT). We consider that a range of 30%-50% of Ensquarred Energy (EE) in H band (1.65um) and in an aperture size from 25 to 100mas is representative of the scientific requirements. From these preliminary choices, different kinds of AO concepts are investigated : Ground Layer Adaptive Optics (GLAO), Multi-Object AO (MOAO) and Laser Guide Stars AO (LGS). Using Fourier based simulations we study the performance of these AO systems depending on the telescope diameter.

description: We study the formation of C$_{18}$H and C$_{18}$H$_2$ by irradiating a cyclo[$18$]carbon molecule with atomic and molecular hydrogen at impact energy, $E$, in the range of 0.5-25 eV. We utilize the density-functional tight-binding method to perform molecular dynamics simulations to emulate the interaction of a carbon ring when colliding with atomic or molecular hydrogen. From our results, the formation of the C$_{18}$H molecules is likely to occur upon irradiating by H atoms at $E < 10$ eV and by H$_2$ molecules at $2 < E < 15$ eV center of mass energy. Formation of C$_{18}$H$_2$ molecules is only observed at around $E = 2$ eV. Our results show that the absorption of hydrogen is more prone in atomic than in molecular hydrogen atmosphere. Thus, we find that the probability of physio-absorption reaches up to 80 \% for atomic projectiles with $E < 5$ eV but only up to 10 \% for the molecular ones. Our analysis shows that the deformation of the carbon ring due to the hydrogen bonding produces transition from $sp$ to $sp^2$ hybridization. The angle between the carbon atoms at the locations near to the H bond in the resulting ring is not 120$^o$ but instead 110$^o$ degrees. No molecular fragmentation of the C$_{18}$ ring is observed.

It is proved that for n\ge2 the group G= always contains a nonabelian free subgroup. For n=1 the question about the existence of nonabelian free subgroups in G is answered completely in the unimodular case (i.e., when the exponent sum of x_1 in w is one). Some generalisations of these results are discussed.

description: Based on a graphical model we analyse the impacts of the Fischler Reform on land prices and the capitalization of single farm payments (sfp) into land values. The model shows that if there are more sfp than eligible land, the capitalization ratio will not decline but rather increase due to the inclusion of animal premiums in the sfp. We can confirm our theoretical results for cross-section data on land rental prices in Bavaria in 2005. Empirical results indicate that sfp of the Fischler reform are more capitalized into rental prices than the coupled direct payments of the time prior to the reform.

description: Michigan, like many other states, is concerned that current ground water regulations are not adequate for addressing increasing demands placed upon the state’s aquifers and is currently revising its ground water policies. In order to identify components of effective ground water policies, we interviewed (via telephone) 70 ground water experts in 20 regulated riparian states which have a history of managing ground water within a riparian doctrine. Our respondents were from agencies, extension, universities, water resource institutes, and special interest groups, as well as legislators. Our sample includes experts who were involved in policy design as well as experts who work with ground water regulations on a daily basis. The questions in our semi-structured interview and the analysis were guided by an economic criteria framework for evaluating effective policy instruments. The findings from this project provide advice for water policy design based upon extensive experience.

description: In a discrete-time setting, we study arbitrage concepts in the presence of convex trading constraints. We show that solvability of portfolio optimization problems is equivalent to absence of arbitrage of the first kind, a condition weaker than classical absence of arbitrage opportunities. We center our analysis on this characterization of market viability and derive versions of the fundamental theorems of asset pricing based on portfolio optimization arguments. By considering specifically a discrete-time setup, we simplify existing results and proofs that rely on semimartingale theory, thus allowing for a clear understanding of the foundational economic concepts involved. We exemplify these concepts, as well as some unexpected situations, in the context of one-period factor models with arbitrage opportunities under borrowing constraints.

description: With the use of the data from archives, we studied the correlations between the equivalent widths of four diffuse interstellar bands (4430$Å$, 5780$Å$, 5797$Å$, 6284$Å$) and properties of the target stars (colour excess values, distances and Galactic coordinates). Many different plots of the diffuse interstellar bands and their maps were produced and further analysed. There appears to be a structure in the plot of equivalent widths of 5780$Å$ DIB (and 6284$Å$ DIB) against the Galactic $x$-coordinate. The structure is well defined below $\sim150$ m$Å$ and within $|x|<250$ pc, peaking around $x=170$ pc. We argue that the origin of this structure is not a statistical fluctuation. Splitting the data in the Galactic longitude into several subregions improves or lowers the well known linear relation between the equivalent widths and the colour excess, which was expected. However, some of the lines of sight display drastically different behaviour. The region within $150^\circ

description: The influence of magnetic Ni and non-magnetic Zn impurities on the normal state pseudogap (PG) in the c-axis optical conductivity of NdBa$_{2}$\{Cu$% _{1-y}$(Ni,Zn)$_{y}\}_{3}$O$_{7-δ}$ crystals was studied by spectral ellipsometry. We find that these impurities which strongly suppress superconductivity have a profoundly different impact on the PG. Zn gives rise to a gradual and inhomogeneous PG suppression while Ni strongly enhances the PG. Our results challenge theories that relate the PG either to precursor superconductivity or to other phases with exotic order parameters, such as flux phase or d-density wave states, that should be suppressed by potential scattering. The apparent difference between magnetic and non-magnetic impurities instead points towards an important role of magnetic correlations in the PG state.

The saturable absorber was formed by a 2-m graded-index multimode fiber and a single-mode fiber segment served as a diaphragm. With an all-normal-dispersion-fiber configuration, the laser generated dissipative soliton pulses with pulse duration of 26.38 ps and pulse energy more than 0.25 nJ; output pulses could be compressed externally to 615.7 fs. Moreover, the self-starting mode-locking operation of this laser exhibited a high stability with a measured signal-to-noise ratio of 73.4 dB in the RF spectrum.

description: We demonstrate the production of micron-sized high density atom clouds of interest for meso- scopic quantum information processing. We evaporate atoms from 60 microK, 3x10^14 atoms/cm^3 samples contained in a highly anisotropic optical lattice formed by interfering di racted beams from a holographic phase plate. After evaporating to 1 microK by lowering the con ning potential, in less than a second the atom density reduces to 8x10^13 cm^- 3 at a phase space density approaching unity. Adiabatic recompression of the atoms then increases the density to levels in excess of 1x10^15 cm^-3. The resulting clouds are typically 8 microns in the longest dimension. Such samples are small enough to enable mesoscopic quantum manipulation using Rydberg blockade and have the high densities required to investigate new collision phenomena.

description: An efficient electrical spin injection into an InGaAs/GaAs quantum well light emitting diode is demonstrated thanks to a CoFeB/MgO spin injector. The textured MgO tunnel barrier is fabricated by two different techniques: sputtering and molecular beam epitaxy (MBE). The maximal spin injection efficiency is comparable for both methods. Additionally, the effect of annealing is also investigated for the two types of samples. Both samples show the same trend: an increase of the electroluminescence circular polarization (Pc) with the increase of annealing temperature, followed by a saturation of Pc beyond 350°C annealing. Since the increase of Pc starts well below the crystallization temperature of the full CoFeB bulk layer, this trend could be mainly due to an improvement of chemical structure at the top CoFeB/MgO interface. This study reveals that the control of CoFeB/MgO interface is essential important for an optimal spin injection into semiconductor.
Initial conditions to cosmological N-body simulations, or how to run an ensemble of simulations
Creators: name: Sirko, Edwin
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The conventional method of generating initial conditions for cosmological N-body simulations introduces a significant error in the real-space statistical properties of the particles. More specifically, the finite box size leads to a significant underestimate of sigma_8, the correlation function, and nonlinear effects. I implement a method of generating initial conditions for N-body simulations that accurately models the real-space statistical properties, such as the mass variance in spheres and the correlation function. The method requires running ensembles of simulations because the power in the DC mode is no longer assumed to be zero. For moderately sized boxes, I demonstrate that the new method corrects the underestimate in the mass variance in spheres and the shape of the correlation function. I also argue that subtracting Poisson noise from the power spectrum is a dangerous practice. Code to generate initial conditions to second order in Lagrangian perturbation theory with the new method is available at http://www.astro.princeton.edu/~esirko/ic .

description: Direct payments have progressively become the largest and most visible form of support in the CAP tool-box. Analyses on direct payments have always highlighted a large inequality in their distribution, both between Member States and, within them, among farmers and territories where, on one side, a relevant amount of payments is concentrated in the hands of a few beneficiaries; on the other, a small share of support is divided among many heads. The European Commission has faced the problem of the volume and the distribution of the direct payments with two main instruments: the modulation and the capping. Modulation was originally conceived as a temporary tool aimed at filling the gap between pillars, but in the last years it has changed shape and rules alongside with the CAP process path and it has become one of the milestones of the CAP tool-box. The capping has received high attention during each step of the recent CAP reform process, however, it has been never implemented so far. Both the instruments have relevant implications about the total amount of payments received by farms and by the Member States and about their distribution; however, the way they are implemented and combined together is crucial to fully evaluate their effects. The main goal of this paper is to reconstruct the evolution of modulation in the process of CAP reform, from the voluntary one launched by Agenda 2000 till the most recent proposal of the CAP Health Check, that combines in one single tool modulation and direct payments’ capping. Simulations of the most recent proposal of modulation show that the goal of Pillar 2 reinforcement has prevailed over the distributional one, through the creation of a sort of national envelope that shifts resources from Pillar 1 to Pillar 2, even though it is not very clear so far how and for what that envelope will be spent. Moreover, the capping goal within the progressive modulation is not very effective and only affects to some limited extent direct payments in few Member States.

description: Two-dimensional materials that exhibit spontaneous electric polarization are of notable interest for functional materials. However, despite many two-dimensional polar materials are predicted in theory, the number of experimentally confirmed two-dimensional ferroelectrics are still far less than bulk ferroelectrics. We provide strong evidence that the Pmn2$_1$ phase of arsenic chalcogenides As$_2$X$_3$ (X=S, Se, and Te), which include the recently isolated monolayer orpiment, are intrinsic ferroelectrics and demonstrate strong in-plane piezoelectricity. We found the calculated energy barriers for collectively reversing the electric polarization or moving a 180$^\circ$ domain wall are reasonable compared to previously reported ferroelectrics. We propose a high-symmetry structure (with Pmmn space group) transforms into the ferroelectric Pmn2$_1$ phase by a soft B$_{2u}$ phonon mode. By studying other soft modes of the high-symmetry Pmmn structure, we identify several undiscovered metastable polymorphs, including a polar phase (with a P2$_1$ space group) with sizable piezoelectricity.

description: The Fulde-Ferrell-Larkin-Ovchinnikov (FFLO) state has received renewed interest recently due to the experimental indication of its presence in CeCoIn$_5$, a quasi 2-dimensional (2D) d-wave superconductor. However direct evidence of the spatial variation of the superconducting order parameter, which is the hallmark of the FFLO state, does not yet exist. In this work we explore the possibility of detecting the phase structure of the order parameter directly using conductance spectroscopy through micro-constrictions, which probes the phase sensitive surface Andreev bound states of d-wave superconductors. We employ the Blonder-Tinkham-Klapwijk formalism to calculate the conductance characteristics between a normal metal (N) and a 2D $s$- or $d_{x^2-y^2}$-wave superconductor in the Fulde-Ferrell state, for all barrier parameter $z$ from the point contact limit ($z=0$) to the tunneling limit ($z \gg 1$). We find that the zero-bias conductance peak due to these surface Andreev bound states observed in the uniform d-wave superconductor is split and shifted in the Fulde-Ferrell state. We also clarify what weighted bulk density of states is measured by the conductance in the limit of large $z$.

description: We calculate the non-zero (naïve) T-odd transverse momentum dependent transversity distribution $h_1^{\perp}(x,\kp^2)$ of the pion in a quark-spectator-antiquark model. The final-state interaction is modelled by the approximation of one gluon exchange between the quark and the antiquark spectator. Using our model result we estimate the unsuppressed cos2$ϕ$ azimuthal asymmetry in unpolarized $π^-p$ Drell-Yan process. We find that the transverse momentum dependence of $h_1^{\perp}(x,\kp^2)$ of the pion is the same as that of $h_1^{\perp}(x,\kp^2)$ of the proton calculated from the quark-scalar-diquark model, although the $x$ dependencies of them are different from each other. This suggests a connection between cos2$ϕ$ asymmetries in Drell-Yan processes with different initial hadrons.

description: A multi-sector model is used to assess the targeting of CAP payments in Italy, according with alternative definitions of the “real farmers” institutional sector. The model is based on a Social Accounting Matrix of the Italian economy, properly adapted to represent the process of income formation and distribution in agriculture. The accounting framework has been integrated with a set of microeconomic information from the Farm Business Survey, a sample of agricultural holdings representative of the whole industry in Italy. The effects of changes in CAP payments have been assessed through a process in which impacts moves from the micro to the macro module of the model and return, in an iterative way. A vector of final income increase for each household included in the survey is obtained and used to reclassify impacts according to alternative definition of the real farmer sector. Results show that the distributive structure of the Italian agriculture as well as the way the policy is implemented are likely to affect the targeting of payments under alternative definitions of the beneficiary group.

description: We observe plasma flows in cool loops using the Slit-Jaw Imager (SJI) onboard the Interface Region Imaging Spectrometer (IRIS). Huang et al. (2015) observed unusually broadened Si IV 1403 angstrom line profiles at the footpoints of such loops that were attributed to signatures of explosive events (EEs). We have chosen one such uni-directional flowing cool loop system observed by IRIS where one of the footpoints is associated with significantly broadened Si IV line profiles. The line profile broadening indirectly indicates the occurrence of numerous EEs below the transition region (TR), while it directly infers a large velocity enhancement /perturbation further causing the plasma flows in the observed loop system. The observed features are implemented in a model atmosphere in which a low-lying bi-polar magnetic field system is perturbed in the chromosphere by a velocity pulse with a maximum amplitude of 200 km/s. The data-driven 2-D numerical simulation shows that the plasma motions evolve in a similar manner as observed by IRIS in the form of flowing plasma filling the skeleton of a cool loop system. We compare the spatio-temporal evolution of the cool loop system in the framework of our model with the observations, and conclude that their formation is mostly associated with the velocity response of the transient energy release above their footpoints in the chromosphere/TR. Our observations and modeling results suggest that the velocity responses most likely associated to the EEs could be one of the main candidates for the dynamics and energetics of the flowing cool loop systems in the lower solar atmosphere.

description: We show that there exists a gap between the performance of separable and collective measurements in qubit mixed-state estimation that persists in the large sample limit. We characterize such gap in terms of the corresponding bounds on the mean fidelity. We present an adaptive protocol that attains the separable-measurement bound. This (optimal separable) protocol uses von Neumann measurements and can be easily implemented with current technology.

description: The Constrained-degree percolation model was introduced in [B.N.B. de Lima, R. Sanchis, D.C. dos Santos, V. Sidoravicius, and R. Teodoro, Stoch. Process. Appl. (2020)], where it was proven that this model has a non-trivial phase transition on a square lattice. We study the Constrained-degree percolation model on the $d$-dimensional hypercubic lattice ($\mathbb{Z}^d$) and, via numerical simulations, found evidence that the critical time $t_{c}^{d}(k)$ is monotonous not increasing in the constrained $k$ if $d=3,4$, like it is when $d=2$. We verify that the lowest constrained value $k$ such that the system exhibits a phase transition is $k=3$ and that the correlation critical exponent $ν$ for the Constrained-degree percolation model and ordinary Bernoulli percolation are the same.

description: The North-Eastern region produces the bulk of India’s ornamental fish exports but remains unattended for developing market opportunities. Several agribusiness opportunities can be explored through systematic collection and selling of native ornamental fish (wild catch) as well as rearing of exotic ornamental fish species (captive breeding) suitable in the region. In view of these, the present study has analysed the economic (social perspective) and financial (private perspective) viabilities of development of ornamental fisheries in the North-Eastern region. It has been concluded that the agribusiness opportunities can be realized at every stage, namely, production, marketing and conservation of ornamental fishes. The ornamental fish production in the NE region has been observed to be financially as well as economically viable and investment-friendly. With the initiatives by the government such as providing incentive to establish ornamental fish production unit, considerable private investment can be attracted to this industry, which would generate additional employment opportunities in this area. The concerted efforts of the government as well as key institutions can increase the ornamental fish production substantially in the region, which in turn, can gain a larger share in the world market. Public-private partnership can be encouraged through establishment of ornamental fish production units in different parts of the NE region to make the ornamental fishery sector more vibrant and remunerative.
Development of new carceplexes and hemicarceplexes and the dynamic combinatorial library study
Creators: name: Sun, Jianyu
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: New disulfide linked [4]carceplex 54»guests was synthesized. This kind of carceplex has diastereotopic protons that can be used in the study of "twistomers" of the carceplex. The twisting process was studied by variable temperature NMR spectroscopy. The activation energy barrier AG* of the twisting on 54 depends on the size of guest molecules. The smaller the guest molecule, the higher the AG* is. We proposed an explanation for the observation. The location of guests inside the host molecule was also studied. The reversibility of disulfide bond formation in this series of compounds and the self-assembly during the formation of carceplexes suggest 54 and the previously synthesized 32 are excellent candidates for the study of the first dynamic combinatorial libraries of carceplexes. Using the disulfide linked [4]carceplexes 54 and disulfide linked [5]carceplexes 32, we worked out reversible conditions to synthesize the corresponding carceplexes from dynamic combinatorial libraries. The yield of disulfide linked [5]carceplexes is improved significantly from 14% (kinetic condition) to 50% (thermodynamic condition). The result on disulfide linked [4]carceplexes is not as good as on disulfide linked [5]carceplexes. We believe the reason is that we haven't found a good template for the disulfide [4]carceplex. Guest exchange was also observed in the library, which confirmed that this library is dynamic. The preparation of [5]cavitand benzylthiol 31 was modified. Using the modified reaction condition, 31 can be synthesized in 40% yield from [5]cavitand, which is much higher than the yield with old reaction condions (10%). This improvement made 32 a more useful template in the study of DCLs. During the synthesis of disulfide linked [4]carceplexes, we synthesized a hemicarcerand, 58, with new trithiacarbonate linkers in very high yield (80%). An X-ray crystal structure was obtained. Based on template studies, we propose the template for the self-assembly of this hemicarcerand can be an inorganic salt, an unprecedented template for such a system.

The potential of conventional beam experiments (MINOS, ICARUS, OPERA), superbeam experiments (T2K, NOvA), and reactor experiments (D-CHOOZ) to improve the precision on the ``atmospheric'' parameters $Δm^2_{31}$, $θ_{23}$, as well as the sensitivity to $θ_{13}$ are discussed. Further, we comment on the possibility to determine the leptonic CP-phase and the neutrino mass hierarchy if $θ_{13}$ turns out to be large.

Nonclassicality in Weak Measurements

Subjects: subject: Quantum Physics (quant-ph)

description: We examine weak measurements of arbitrary observables where the object is prepared in a mixed state and on which measurements with imperfect detectors are made. The weak value of an observable can be expressed as a conditional expectation value over an infinite class of different generalized Kirkwood quasi-probability distributions. "Strange" weak values for which the real part exceeds the eigenvalue spectrum of the observable can only be found if the Terletsky-Margenau-Hill distribution is negative, or, equivalently, if the real part of the weak value of the density operator is negative. We find that a classical model of a weak measurement exists whenever the Terletsky-Margenau-Hill representation of the observable equals the classical representation of the observable and the Terletsky-Margenau-Hill distribution is nonnegative. Strange weak values alone are not sufficient to obtain a contradiction with classical models. We propose feasible weak measurements of photon number of the radiation field. Negative weak values of energy contradicts all classical stochastic models, whereas negative weak values of photon number contradict all classical stochastic models where the energy is bounded from below by the zero-point energy. We examine coherent states in particular, and find negative weak values with probabilities of 16% for kinetic energy (or squared field quadrature), 8% for harmonic oscillator energy and 50% for photon number. These experiments are robust against detector inefficiency and thermal noise.

description: We study the polarization of positively charged $W$'s in the scattering of massive electroweak bosons at hadron colliders. We rely on the separation of weak boson polarizations in the gauge-invariant, doubly-resonant part of the amplitude in Monte Carlo simulations. Polarizations depend on the reference frame in which they are defined. We discuss the change in polarization fractions and in kinematic distributions arising from defining polarization vectors in two different reference frames which have been employed in recent experimental analyses.

description: We have detected the four 18cm OH lines from the $z \sim 0.765$ gravitational lens toward PMN J0134-0931. The 1612 and 1720 MHz lines are in conjugate absorption and emission, providing a laboratory to test the evolution of fundamental constants over a large lookback time. We compare the HI and OH main line absorption redshifts of the different components in the $z \sim 0.765$ absorber and the $z \sim 0.685$ lens toward B0218+357 to place stringent constraints on changes in $F \equiv g_p [α^2/μ]^{1.57}$. We obtain $[ΔF/F] = (0.44 \pm 0.36^{\rm stat} \pm 1.0^{\rm syst}) \times 10^{-5}$, consistent with no evolution over the redshift range $0 < z < 0.7$. The measurements have a $2 σ$ sensitivity of $[Δα/α] < 6.7 \times 10^{-6}$ or $[Δμ/μ] < 1.4 \times 10^{-5}$ to fractional changes in $α$ and $μ$ over a period of $\sim 6.5$ Gyr, half the age of the Universe. These are among the most sensitive current constraints on changes in $μ$.
