description: Lactam rings are essential structural motifs in organic chemistry, widely present in natural products and clinically important drugs, such as antibiotics and antiepileptics. Existing methods for synthesizing N-functionalized lactams often require harsh conditions, toxic reagents, or complex catalytic systems. Here, we report a mild and efficient photochemical approach for generating N-centered radicals, enabling straightforward N-heteroarylation of lactams. This versatile method enables the synthesis of a range of N-(het)arylated lactams and is effective even in aqueous media, facilitating the functionalization of biomolecules. Furthermore, the photochemical reaction is easily scalable under continuous flow conditions, making it highly suitable for large-scale applications.

description: This paper merges inclusive wealth accounting theory with ecosystem based management (EBM) to resolve two problems. First, we provide measures of an ecosystem’s contribution to larger scale sustainability accounts by enabling ecosystems to be better included in inclusive wealth measures. We show the ecosystems are better thought of as portfolios of assets, and the portfolio’s performance is depended on the performance of the underlying assets, including their interactions. Second, the wealth held in the ecosystem is an attractive headline index for EBM regardless of whether ecosystem wealth is ultimately included in a broader index. We generalize natural capital theory to approximate realized shadow prices (accounting prices) for multiple interacting stocks of biotic and abiotic assets and liabilities that comprise ecosystems. We apply our approach to the Baltic Sea ecosystem, focusing on the interacting community of three commercially important fish species; cod, herring and sprat. The accounting prices of the three species show decreasing patterns with larger stock accumulation. Our results reveal the “supporting value or regulation services” embodied in the shadow price of a species through its trophic influence on other species. Prey fish have greater shadow prices than would be expected based on market value and predatory fish have lower shadow prices than may be expected based on market value.

description: La generación de residuos urbanos es una consecuencia inevitable de la actividad humana, siendo la Fracción Orgánica de Residuos Sólidos Urbanos (FORSU) el mayor componente del residuo municipal, representando un 42% (1). En este sentido, en el marco del proyecto HOOP, se ha buscado el desarrollo de iniciativas que incentiven la Bioeconomía circular urbana a gran escala en 8 regiones, centrándose en la fabricación de productos a partir de biorresiduos urbanos y aguas residuales.

Desde ITENE se ha trabajado en incrementar la circularidad de dos tipos de residuos para 2 regiones: posos de café (Macedonia Occidental) y residuo de poda (Münster). Para la valorización de estos residuos se han empleado dos métodos que permiten obtener diferentes bioproductos.
Order and quantum phase transitions in the cuprate superconductors

description: It is now widely accepted that the cuprate superconductors are characterized by the same long-range order as that present in the Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) theory: that associated with the condensation of Cooper pairs. We argue that many physical properties of the cuprates require interplay with additional order parameters associated with a proximate Mott insulator. We review a classification of Mott insulators in two dimensions, and contend that the experimental evidence so far shows that the class appropriate to the cuprates has collinear spin correlations, bond order, and confinement of neutral, spin S=1/2 excitations. Proximity to second-order quantum phase transitions associated with these orders, and with the pairing order of BCS, has led to systematic predictions for many physical properties. We use this context to review the results of recent neutron scattering, fluxoid detection, nuclear magnetic resonance, and scanning tunnelling microscopy experiments.

description: Non-tariff barriers (NTBs) to agricultural trade are believed to have increased as tariffs fell. Hence, measuring NTBs has become important and several alternative methods to do so are used. We develop a method that combines cointegration tests and an equilibrium model. We use these two seemingly disparate methods not only to estimate the size of NTBs, but also to assess its economic impact. We apply our method to the Russian chicken import ban and find larger impacts as compared to a common method based on price gaps. Trade policy analysts can use our method to convert the implicit economic assumptions of cointegration test results into explicit measures of NTBs or other factors that can explain the observed pattern in time series price data and estimate their impacts.

description: Supermassive black hole feedback is thought to be responsible for the lack of star formation, or quiescence, in a significant fraction of galaxies. We explore how observable correlations between the specific star formation rate (sSFR), stellar mass (M$_{\rm{star}}$), and black hole mass (M$_{\rm{BH}}$) are sensitive to the physics of black hole feedback in a galaxy formation model. We use the IllustrisTNG simulation suite, specifically the TNG100 simulation and ten model variations that alter the parameters of the black hole model. Focusing on central galaxies at $z = 0$ with M$_{\rm{star}} > 10^{10}$ M$_{\odot}$, we find that the sSFR of galaxies in IllustrisTNG decreases once the energy from black hole kinetic winds at low accretion rates becomes larger than the gravitational binding energy of gas within the galaxy stellar radius. This occurs at a particular M$_{\rm{BH}}$ threshold above which galaxies are found to sharply transition from being mostly star-forming to mostly quiescent. As a result of this behavior, the fraction of quiescent galaxies as a function of M$_{\rm{star}}$ is sensitive to both the normalization of the M$_{\rm{BH}}$-M$_{\rm{star}}$ relation and the M$_{\rm{BH}}$ threshold for quiescence in IllustrisTNG. Finally, we compare these model results to observations of 91 central galaxies with dynamical M$_{\rm{BH}}$ measurements with the caveat that this sample is not representative of the whole galaxy population. While IllustrisTNG reproduces the observed trend that quiescent galaxies host more massive black holes, the observations exhibit a broader scatter in M$_{\rm{BH}}$ at a given M$_{\rm{star}}$ and show a smoother decline in sSFR with M$_{\rm{BH}}$.

Open Journal Matcher: Open journal discovery for everyone
Creators: name: Eaton, Mark
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2021

description: I recently built a web application called the Open Journal Matcher (https://ojm.ocert.at), which is a recommender tool for academics looking to find a suitable scholarly journal for their work. The Open Journal Matcher allows users to paste in a draft abstract, which it then compares with the abstracts of over 5600 English-language journals from the Directory of Open Access Journals. The application then returns the top five suggested matches, which are meant to be both relevant and serendipitous. This can be very useful to anyone trying to find an appropriate journal for their work. There are other journal matching services available, some from big publishers such as Springer and Elsevier, and some that focus on specific fields, such as JANE. Yet to my knowledge, the OJM is the only matcher that is both fully interdisciplinary (covering the full range of disciplines found in the DOAJ) and fully open source. The code for the matcher application, the code for the matching algorithm (spaCy), and the content of the journals, is all openly licensed. Upon its release in June 2020, the OJM received a very favorable reception from the open science and scholarly communications communities. It has been retweeted hundreds of times, and also shared widely by many people on platforms such as Slack, Facebook, Reddit, email lists, library websites, and academic blogs. This has reaffirmed the need for such a tool, and has led me to focus on further development of this project since its release. This poster will describe insights gleaned while building this tool. I’ll describe the challenges of gathering journal data from the Directory of Open Access Journals’ API at scale; the numerous lessons learned while using natural language processing tools to calculate the similarity of texts; and the difficulties processing large amounts of data very quickly for the web, using Google Cloud Platform and asynchronous Python programming. The project will be of foremost interest to authors who are looking for a journal to publish their scholarly work. It will also be relevant to technologists who are interested in building open source tools for their communities. It may be helpful to professionals, such as librarians, who promote scholarly communications, and who may find this tool to be a useful addition to their toolkit. Lastly, it will serve as an interesting example of the novel services we can provide to our communities when we apply open digital technologies in support of our scholarship.

description: Local cohomology techniques in equivariant homotopy theory, introduced by John Greenlees, may be applied to understand homology of classifying spaces through other equivariant data. In this paper we relate the local cohomology filtration to the families filtration. By doing so, we may identify geometry codified by the local cohomology filtration in the setting of equivariant bordism. The constructions which arise are naturally analyzed by localized K-theory machinery due to Atiyah and Segal, which we review.

description: This study examines the performance of the forested land ownership by farmers in Poland this paper compares the efficiency of farms reporting a portion of their operated land as a forest with those that do not own any forested land. Using FADN data, the study focuses first on cost efficiency, which was estimated using the fixed effects stochastic cost frontier model (Kumbakhar and Knox Lovell, 2003). A generalized multiproduct translog cost function (Caves, Christensen, and Tretheway, 1980) was selected to represent the deterministic part of the cost function because it imposes fewer a-priori restrictions than other functional forms commonly used for the task. The efficiency scores (i.e., the fixed effects) were subject to further analysis, to establish the differences between farms with and without forest land (where forest land was measured as the proportion of the total farm area that was under forest land). The results strongly indicated, both in aggregate and considering estimates by farm type, that most of the farms with forest land were relatively less efficient than farms without them. Because the average farm size has been steadily increasing (although it remains relatively small) in response to a decreasing farm numbers in Poland, while the commercial agricultural production contracts in some peripheral areas without creating a shortage of food or agricultural commodities, there is an opportunity to reallocate land from its current uses to reforestation on farms already managing small groves. The speed of reallocating land will, however, depend greatly on ability of forested land to generate a stream of income. Given the FADN data, the transfer of all remaining agricultural land operated by farms with forested acreage to reforestation would add about 170 thousand hectares of privately owned forests in Poland. Additionally, the transition of farms owing woodlands may lead to their new role in the national environmental policy and efforts to cut the greenhouse gas emissions.

description: Encouraging sustainable mobility patterns is at the forefront of policymaking at all scales of governance as the collective consciousness surrounding climate change continues to expand. Not every community, however, possesses the necessary economic or socio-cultural capital to encourage modal shifts away from private motorized vehicles towards active modes. The current literature on `soft' policy emphasizes the importance of tailoring behavior change campaigns to individual or geographic context. Yet, there is a lack of insight and appropriate tools to promote active mobility and overcome transport disadvantage from the local community perspective. The current study investigates the promotion of walking and cycling adoption using a series of focus groups with local residents in two geographic communities, namely Chicago's (1) Humboldt Park neighborhood and (2) suburb of Evanston. The research approach combines traditional qualitative discourse analysis with quantitative text-mining tools, namely topic modeling and sentiment analysis. The analysis uncovers the local mobility culture, embedded norms and values associated with acceptance of active travel modes in different communities. We observe that underserved populations within diverse communities view active mobility simultaneously as a necessity and as a symbol of privilege that is sometimes at odds with the local culture. The mixed methods approach to analyzing community member discourses is translated into policy findings that are either tailored to local context or broadly applicable to curbing automobile dominance. Overall, residents of both Humboldt Park and Evanston envision a society in which multimodalism replaces car-centrism, but differences in the local physical and social environments would and should influence the manner in which overarching policy objectives are met.

description: Understanding the migration and transformation of nitrogen during high-alkali coal pyrolysis and the influence of sodium on the nitrogen-containing components of coal is of great significance for the clean and efficient utilization of coal. In this study, gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) and ultraviolet visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis) were used to analyze the conversion of tar-N, char-N and gas-N during coal pyrolysis and the effect of sodium on the nitrogen-containing pyrolysis products of coal. The experimental results were combined with density functional theory (DFT) calculations to investigate the effect of sodium on the internal conversion process of char-N. The results revealed that a large amount of Na (2.5 wt.%, 3.5 wt.%) can reduce the nitrogen content in coal pyrolysis char, promote the formation of amine and amide in tar-N and inhibit the release of gaseous nitrogen. A small amount of Na (0.5 wt.%, 1.5 wt.%) retains nitrogen in char, reducing the total amount of nitrogen-containing species in the gas phase and tar, which is an effective means to inhibit the transformation of nitrogen to volatile matter. In addition, a large amount of Na promotes the conversion of pyrrole nitrogen (N-5) and pyridine nitrogen (N-6) in char to heterocyclic N in tar. A small amount of sodium promotes the hydrogenation and ring opening of heterocyclic-N in tar to HCN. Na promotes the conversion of N-5 and N-6 in char. DFT calculations further confirmed that the addition of Na significantly reduced the energy barrier of the rate determining step by about 36.6 kJ/mol.

description: The primary purpose of the collective Thomson scattering (CTS) diagnostic at ITER is to measure the properties of fast-ion populations, in particular those of fusion-born $α$-particles. Based on the present design of the diagnostic, we compute and fit synthetic CTS spectra for the ITER baseline plasma scenario, including the effects of noise, refraction, multiple fast-ion populations, and uncertainties on nuisance parameters. As part of this, we developed a model for CTS that incorporates spatial effects of frequency-dependent refraction. While such effects will distort the measured ITER CTS spectra, we demonstrate that the true $α$-particle densities can nevertheless be recovered to within ~10% from noisy synthetic spectra, using existing fitting methods that do not take these spatial effects into account. Under realistic operating conditions, we thus find the predicted performance of the ITER CTS system to be consistent with the ITER measurement requirements of a 20% accuracy on inferred $α$-particle density profiles at 100 ms time resolution.

Nonlinear redshift distortions: The two-point correlation function

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We consider a situation where the density and peculiar velocities in real space are linear, and we calculate ξ_s the two-point correlation function in redshift space, incorporating all non-linear effects which arise as a consequence of the map from real to redshift space. Our result is non-perturbative and it includes the effects of possible multi-streaming in redshift space. We find that the deviations from the predictions of the linear redshift distortion analysis increase for the higher spherical harmonics of ξ_s. While the deviations are insignificant for the monopole ξ_0, the hexadecapole ξ_4 exhibits large deviations from the linear predictions. For a COBE normalised Γ=0.25, h=0.5 CDM power spectrum our results for ξ_4 deviate from the linear predictions by a factor of two at the scales ~10 h^{-1} Mpc. The deviations from the linear predictions depend separately on Ωand b. This holds the possibility of removing the degeneracy that exists between these two parameters in the linear analysis of redshift surveys which yields only β=Ω^0.6/b. We also show that the commonly used phenomenological model where the non-linear redshift two-point correlation function is calculated by convolving the linear redshift correlation function with an isotropic pair velocity distribution function is a limiting case of our result.

description: Using a 2012 survey data from northern Ghana, this study seeks to establish the impact of participation in off-farm work on the vulnerability of resource poor households to food poverty. Vulnerability to food poverty is assessed based on expected future food expenditure. The potential endogeneity problem associated with participation in off-farm work by households is taken care of using novel instrumental variable approach. Analysis of determinants of expected future food expenditure is done using a standard Feasible Generalized Least Squares (FGLS) method. Demographic and socioeconomic variables, location variables, and household facilities are also included in the model as control variables. Results show that participation in off-farm work significantly increased the future expected food consumption and thereby alleviating the vulnerability of households to food poverty. Results also confirmed that food poverty and vulnerability to food poverty are not independent from each other. Off-farm work plays a crucial role in providing the means to overcome the risk of food poverty in these resource poor households. Policy tools should be designed taking into account the vulnerability of these households to food poverty, bearing in mind the significance of their food budget shares and the uncertainties surrounding food production and consumption by these households.

description: The blue supergiant Sher25 in the massive Galactic cluster NGC3603 is surrounded by a striking emission line nebula. The nebula contains an equatorial ring and probable bi-polar outflows, and is similar in morphology, mass and kinematics to the structure visible around SN1987A. It has been suggested that both nebulae were ejected while Sher25 and the progenitor of SN1987A were in previous red supergiant phases. We present optical high-resolution spectra of Sher25 and a model photosphere and unified stellar wind analysis which determines atmospheric parameters, mass-loss rate and photospheric abundances. We compare CNO abundances to other Galactic B-type supergiants and find that Sher25 does not appear extreme or abnormal in terms of its photospheric nitrogen and helium abundances. The C/N and N/O ratios are compared to surface abundances predicted by stellar evolutionary calculations and are incompatible with the star having a previous red-supergiant phase. The nebula is likely to have been ejected while the star was a blue supergiant. The results are compatible with some degree of rotationally induced mixing having occurred while the star was on or near the main-sequence. Our analsysis suggests the star has a relatively normal stellar wind and mass-loss rate, and sits comfortably within the wind momentum-luminosity relationship. In light of the evidence regarding massive evolved early-type stars in the Galaxy we suggest there is no object which shows clear evidence of having had a previous red supergiant phase and hence of undergoing blue loops in the HR diagram.

description: In simple models of the Milky Way, tidally disrupting satellites produce long and thin---nearly one-dimensional---stellar streams. Using astrometric data from the Gaia second data release and photometry from the Dark Energy Survey, we demonstrate that the Jhelum stream, a stellar stream in the inner halo, is a two-dimensional structure. The spatial distribution of highly probable Jhelum members reveals a dense thin component and an associated diffuse, spatially offset component. These two spatial components have indistinguishable proper motions (at $σ\sim1\,\rm mas\,yr^{-1}$ level) and a similar ratio of blue straggler to blue horizontal branch stars, which indicates a common origin for the two components. The best-fit orbit to the narrow component (pericenter $8\,\rm kpc$, apocenter $24\,\rm kpc$), however, does not explain the wide component of the Jhelum stream. On the other hand, an older orbital wrap of Jhelum's orbit traces the Indus stream, indicating a possible connection between these two structures and additional complexity in Jhelum's formation. Substructure in the Jhelum progenitor or precession of its tidal debris in the Milky Way potential may explain the observed structure of Jhelum. Future spectroscopic data will enable discrimination between these "nature" and "nurture" formation scenarios.

description: Iridium oxides have provided a playground to study novel phases originating from spin-orbit coupling and electron-electron interactions. Among them, the d-wave singlet superconductor was proposed for electron-doped Sr$_2$IrO$_4$, containing two Ir atoms in a unit cell due to the staggered rotation of oxygen octahedra about the c-axis. It was also noted that such oxygen octahedra rotation affects electronic transports. Here we study the role of octahedra tilting away from the c-axis, in determining superconducting pairing symmetry. We show that the octahedra tilting changes the large Fermi surface to a Dirac point, which strongly suppresses the conventional d-wave pairing. Furthermore, it also promotes effective spin-triplet interactions in the strong Hubbard interaction limit, leading to a transition from the even-parity to odd-parity superconducting phase. Thus, tuning octahedra distortions can be used as a tool to engineer a spin triplet superconductor in strongly correlated systems with strong spin-orbit coupling.

description: Common Agricultural Policy reform, coupled with increasing market and climatic volatility will necessitate a competitive, resilient and environmentally sustainable UK agricultural industry reliant upon successful farm business management. Drawing upon in-depth semi-structured interviews with 24 ‘high’ or ‘improved’ English farmers, results indicate that they typically hold agricultural qualifications, draw upon a range of information sources, recognise and draw upon farm-specific advantages, have low business debt, keep up to date with new industry developments and use a range of marketing channels. Additionally, these farmers seek to maximise profit within the context of farm and family objectives by focusing upon cost control, attention to detail, product quality and achieving high yields whilst primarily focusing upon enterprise margins; succession planning played an important role in decision making on some farms. Farmer decision making represents the outcome of responses to complex inter-linked issues; policy makers face the challenge of understanding this complexity and delivering policies that will generate multi-output objectives.
Thermodynamic and thermoelectric properties of high-temperature cuprate superconductors in the stripe phase

description: We examine the thermodynamic and thermoelectric properties in the stripe phase of high-Tc cuprates, by using the finite-temperature Lanczos technique for the t-J model with a potential that stabilizes vertical charge stripes. When the stripe potential is turned on, the entropy is suppressed as a consequence of the formation of one-dimensional charge stripes accompanied by an enhancement of antiferromagnetic spin correlation in the spin domains. The stripe formation leads also to weak temperature dependence of the chemical potential, leading to the suppression of the thermoelectric power. The suppression of the entropy and thermoelectric power is consistent with experimental data in the stripe phase of La_{1.6-x}Nd_{0.4}Sr_xCuO_4.

description: Increasing demand for food and rising grain prices makes grain loss and waste reduction a topic of great concern. A fundamental question exists: why would a manager permit losses? Unfortunately, the farm manager’s role and understanding of harvest and post-harvest loss (PHL) are not well understood due to a lack of research. We argue that that policy makers and equipment manufacturers need to understand how grain loss reduction fits into the farm manager’s ‘problem’, if efficient levels of loss reduction are to occur. We conduct semi structured interviews and a statewide online survey in Mato Grosso, Brazil to better understand the role of management in harvest and post-harvest loss. The survey results: help fill the important knowledge gap about the managerial component of post-harvest loss; provide insights into loss management among farmers running large modern operations in the fast growing tropical regions of the world; and show and explain the weak motivation to reduce current levels of PHL.
Inter-band B(E2) transition strengths in odd-mass heavy deformed nuclei

description: Inter-band B(E2) transition strengths between different normal parity bands in 163Dy and 165Er are described using the pseudo-SU(3) model. The Hamiltonian includes Nilsson single-particle energies, quadrupole-quadrupole and pairing interactions with fixed, parametrized strengths, and three extra rotor terms used to fine tune the energy spectra. In addition to inter-band transitions, the energy spectra and the ground state intra-band B(E2) strengths are reported. The results show the pseudo-SU(3) shell model to be a powerful microscopic theory for a description of the normal parity sector in heavy deformed odd-A nuclei.

Peak Luminosity-Spectral Lag Relation Caused by the Viewing Angle of the Collimated Gamma-Ray Bursts
Creators: name: Ioka, Kunihito

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We compute the kinematical dependence of the peak luminosity, the pulse width and the spectral lag of the peak luminosity on the viewing angle $θ_v$ of a jet. For appropriate model parameters we obtain the peak luminosity-spectral lag relation similar to the observed one including GRB980425. A bright (dim) peak with short (long) spectral lag corresponds to a jet with small (large) viewing angle. This suggests that the viewing angle of the jet might cause various relations in GRBs such as the peak luminosity-variability relation and the luminosity-width relation. Our model also suggests that X-ray rich GRBs (or X-ray flushes or Fast X-ray transients) are typical GRBs observed from large $θ_v$ with large spectral lag and low variability.

description: Drought is often discussed as a major perturbation in savanna ecosystems, associated with lasting shifts in savanna structure and functioning. However, historically, droughts have occurred frequently in southern African savannas, suggesting that plants might benefit from being resilient to drought. Here, we evaluate whether the 2014–2016 drought was an extreme event in terms of effects on the herbaceous vegetation and specifically on grasses. We monitored herbaceous responses, pre-, during and post-drought in the Kruger National Park and compared responses with a previous extreme drought (1991–1992). Grass biomass decreased during both droughts, but recovered quickly once rains returned, regardless of whether areas burned in the years preceding drought. However, species functional composition was slower to recover, with shifts in dominance that closely matched grass photosynthetic machinery. Species drought tolerances were best predicted by their bundle sheath morphology: species characterised by XyMS− bundle sheaths (often associated with NADP-ME photosythesis) declined in abundance consistently during drought, whereas those characterised by XyMS+ bundle sheaths (associated with PEP-ck and NAD-ME photosynthesis) either increased or were unaffected by drought. The response of grass to drought, at least in terms of productivity and functional composition, is relatively predictable.

description: Projected increases in the frequency and severity of drought events are expected to impose changes in the ecology of native forb communities in semi-arid ecosystems. We examined the state of forb communities during, and directly after an extreme drought event across two contrasting land-use types, which included a protected area (high diversity of free roaming wild herbivores) and communal rangeland (long history of intensive cattle grazing) in a semi-arid Lowveld savanna of the Gazankulu area, South Africa. Forb floristic data were collected towards the end of the drought and repeated after the drought release a few months later. Forb community composition was significantly different among land-use types. Community changes were not induced by annual forb emergence alone, but through species-specific dominance shifts, which differed among land-use types. Forb richness, diversity and biomass were equally low at both land-use types and increased significantly after the drought release, although the magnitude of response was much stronger in the protected area, whereas drought contributed to a directional change in the protected area with a complete post-drought turnover in both annual and perennial forb species, much less variability was observed in the communal rangeland, which may suggest long-term effects imposed by land-use history.
