 Illustrated material. Figs 7H 1–H 2: Mörtersdorf (Austria), height: 30 mm, width: 26 mm, private collection Anton and Thomas Breitenberger (Bad Vöslau and Pottenstein, Austria).
 Description. Globular shell with low, gradate spire and large, convex last whorl. A shoulder appears already on early whorls and separates a flat sutural shelf from the flanks. Sculpture consisting of 13 low fold-like axial ribs overrun by about ten flattened spiral cords, with broad, horizontally elongate nodes developed at the intersections. These are most prominent along the shoulder. Up to three wavy secondary spiral threads are intercalated between the adapical five primary cords, whilst only one (or no) threads are intercalated between the cords on the base. Aperture and base obscured by sediment.
 Discussion. Only a single specimen is available and the aperture is unknown. Therefore, even the generic assignment remains doubtful. Although some specimens of the Early Miocene Ovilia doliolaris have tendencies to develop rugose spiral ribs, as evident from the illustration in Basterot (1825), none displays such a conspicuous sculpture. The weak suture of the Austrian shell allows a clear separation from the O doliolaris group and the newly described O. breitenbergerorum, which occurs at the same locality.
 A second group of species, which we provisionally include in the genus Ovilia, have axial sculpture, albeit weak, much less conspicuous spiral cords and a less deeply canaliculate suture. This group is characterised by O. excassidea (Sacco, 1894) in the Miocene and O. cassidea (Brocchi, 1814) and O. andaluciensis Landau, 1984 in the Pliocene. The Austrian shell resembles O. excassidea in outline and suture type and might represent an ancestral form of this Middle Miocene species. The sculpture of both species is also comparable. Differences are the blunt nodes and densely spaced spiral ribs of the Early Miocene Austrian shell, as opposed to the much narrower spiral cords of O. excassidea, and the poorly defined axial ribs, whilst O. excassidea has a distinct axial sculpture.
 Distribution. A rare species, which is only known from the Paratethys Sea.

description: A survey of the milk haulers in the Northeast was conducted in June 1992 to assess the status of the industry. Detailed information on characteristics of the hauling businesses as well as the equipment operated was collected. Data submitted by milk haulers with New York addresses was isolated from the survey data set and analyzed on a regional basis. Some of the general topics addressed include the number, size, and location of hauling businesses, wages paid to hired drivers, and the cost of milk hauling equipment. A section is devoted to measures of hauling efficiency. Two sections review the costs involved in milk hauling, the first of which is more general in its approach. The second cost-based section investigates differences in hauling costs between small-and large-sized milk haulers.

 Description: A medium sized cancellariid with gradate spire and elongated barrel-shaped last whorl. The spire whorls are high with nearly flat flanks, bulgy shoulder and narrow subsutural swelling. The high last whorl has subparallel flanks and a shoulder swelling that forms a narrow sutural ramp. A very weak concavity appears directly below the shoulder. The shell surface is smooth except for blunt growth lines and faint axial ribs on the early spire whorls. Base slowly contracting. A weak central columellar fold is adjoined by a faint anterior fold; columella straight. Columellar callus thickened grading into a prominent parietal callus. The outer lip is only fragmentarily preserved; no lirae or denticles are developed; no umbilicus.
 Discussion. The thin outer lip, the moderately wide aperture with very prominent inner lip and the weak central columellar fold place the species in Petitina and points to a relation to Petitina inermis (Pusch, 1837). Consequently, Sieber (1936) introduced the name angulata as variety name of Cancellaria inermis Pusch, 1837 for these specimens. This species, however, differs from Petitina inermis (Pusch, 1837) in its gradate spire, barrel-shaped last whorl, smaller size, the presence of a callus and the absence of axial sculpture, justifying a separation on species level. The name “ angulata ” is preoccupied by Cancellaria angulata Eichwald (1830) for a shell from Poland, which was later transferred to Turbinella by Eichwald (1853). As these taxa have not been considered to be congeneric after 1899, no replacement is needed in accordance with ICZN 23.9.5 and the valid cyronym is Petitina angulata (Sieber, 1936).
 Distribution. This rare species is known so far only from the Karpatian (Late Burdigalian) of the Paratethys Sea.

description: Fishbein's Theory of Reasoned Action models behavior as based on beliefs and evaluations on a small set of salient attributes. Two methods of reducing large sets of potentially salient attributes into a smaller set of salient attributes are proposed. The methods are based on expectancy valuation analysis and logistic regression analysis. When applied to consumer beliefs and evaluations on 59 attributes over three milk types (whole, low-fat, and skim milk), both methods identify reduced sets of attributes. The reduced attribute sets are then used to model whether or not respondents drink a particular milk type. Results indicate that the reduced models are statistically significant in explaining choice of m"ilk type although there is some loss of information as compared to models with 59 attributes. Furthermore, the data indicate that statistically-imputed evaluation ratings differ from self-stated evaluation ratings.

description: Using the zero mode method we compute the conductance of a wire consisting of a magnetic impurity coupled to two Luttinger liquid leads characterized by the Luttinger exponent $α(\leq 1)$. We find for resonance conditions, in which the Fermi energy of the leads is close to a single particle energy of the impurity, the conductance as a function of temperature is $G \sim \frac{e^2}{h} (T/T_F)^{2(α-2)}$, whereas for off-resonance conditions the conductance is $G \sim \frac{e^2}{h} (T/T_F)^{2(α-1)}$. By applying a gate voltage and/or a magnetic field, one of the spin components can be in resonance while the other is off-resonance causing a strong asymmetry between the spin-up and spin-down conductances.

description: This summary and analysis of 343 New York dairy farm businesses demonstrates the use of cash accounting and accrual adjustments to measure farm profitability, cash flow, financial performance, and costs of producing milk. Traditional methods of analyzing dairy farm businesses are combined with improved evaluation techniques to show the relationship between good management performance and financial success. These farms averaged 130 cows per farm and 18,858 pounds of milk sold per cow in 1993, which are above the average size and management level of all New York dairy farms. Net farm income excluding appreciation, which is the return to the operator's labor, management, capital, and other unpaid family labor, averaged $43,936 per farm. The rate of return including appreciation to all capital invested in the farm business averaged 4.6 percent in 1993.

description: Layered antiferromagnetism is the spatial arrangement of ferromagnetic layers with antiferromagnetic interlayer coupling. Recently, the van der Waals magnet, chromium triiodide (CrI3), emerged as the first layered antiferromagnetic insulator in its few-layer form, opening up ample opportunities for novel device functionalities. Here, we discovered an emergent nonreciprocal second order nonlinear optical effect in bilayer CrI3. The observed second harmonic generation (SHG) is giant: several orders of magnitude larger than known magnetization induced SHG and comparable to SHG in the best 2D nonlinear optical materials studied so far (e.g. MoS2). We showed that while the parent lattice of bilayer CrI3 is centrosymmetric and thus does not contribute to the SHG signal, the observed nonreciprocal SHG originates purely from the layered antiferromagnetic order, which breaks both spatial inversion and time reversal symmetries. Furthermore, polarization-resolved measurements revealed the underlying C2h symmetry, and thus monoclinic stacking order in CrI3 bilayers, providing crucial structural information for the microscopic origin of layered antiferromagnetism. Our results highlight SHG as a highly sensitive probe that can reveal subtle magnetic order and open novel nonlinear and nonreciprocal optical device possibilities based on 2D magnets.

description: Recent concern among New York dairy farmers has grown regarding potential increases in energy costs as upstate utilities, under mandate from the New York Public Service Commission, move to time-of-use electricity rates. Furthermore, since it is often desirable to maintain relatively fixed intervals between daily milkings, farmers have expressed further concern about their ability to shift electricity consumption from expensive peak period hours to relatively inexpensive off-peak hours. To determine the effects of time-of-use electricity rates on New York dairy farms and to gain a better understanding of methods farmers can adopt to save energy, an empirical model estimating the time-of-day demand for electricity is developed. The parameters from this model are used to simulate load curves for a sample of farms. The time-of-use rates for four upstate utilities are used in conjunction with these load curves to estimate electricity costs under time-of-use and flat rates. Farm characteristics are regressed on the percentage change in the electricity bills for this sample of farms to derive relationships to explain how to reschedule dairy operations to reduce electricity costs under time-of-use rates. The empirical results indicate that electricity bills will fall for the majority of farms in the move to time-ofuse electricity rates. Savings are an increasing function of farm size since larger farms can more easily spread the higher customer charge that accompanies time-of-use rates. There appear to be few incentives for farmers to reschedule dairy operations to realize additional savings under time-of-use pricing.

description: Integrating the concerns of stakeholders into the decision process can be particularly important when adopting a new technology. Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) offers many potential benefits to the healthcare industry. However, hospital administrators who are examining this technology may not be considering the concerns of some secondary stakeholders (e.g, patients). A consumer survey found that support for two RFID applications in hospitals varied both across respondents and across applications. Privacy attitudes and behaviors were linked with RFID support levels. Increased two-way communications between healthcare management and both primary and secondary stakeholders may help improve the technology adoption decisions.

description: In models of spacetime that are the product of a four-dimensional spacetime with an ``extra'' dimension, there is the possibility that the extra dimension will collapse to zero size, forming a singularity. We ask whether this collapse is likely to destroy the spacetime. We argue, by an appeal to the four-dimensional cosmic censorship conjecture, that--at least in the case when the extra dimension is homogeneous--such a collapse will lead to a singularity hidden within a black string. We also construct explicit initial data for a spacetime in which such a collapse is guaranteed to occur and show how the formation of a naked singularity is likely avoided.

description: We study the connection between the charging power of quantum batteries and the fluctuations of the extractable work. We prove that in order to have a non-zero rate of change of the extractable work, the state $ρ_\mathcal{W}$ of the battery cannot be an eigenstate of a `\emph{free energy operator}', defined by $\mathcal{F}~\equiv~H_\mathcal{W}~+~β^{-1}\log(ρ_\mathcal{W})$, where $H_\mathcal{W}$ is the Hamiltonian of the battery and $β$ is the inverse temperature of a reference thermal bath with respect to which the extractable work is calculated. We do so by proving that fluctuations in the free energy operator upper bound the charging power of a quantum battery. Our findings also suggest that quantum coherence in the battery enhances the charging process, which we illustrate on a toy model of a heat engine. \ \emph{Note: this version includes our Reply to a Comment by Cusumano and Rudnicki, both published in Phys.

Composite Quasar Spectra From the Sloan Digital Sky Survey

Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)

description: We have created a variety of composite quasar spectra using a homogeneous data set of over 2200 spectra from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). The quasar sample spans a redshift range of 0.044 <= z <= 4.789, and an absolute r' magnitude range of -18.0 to -26.5. The median composite covers a rest wavelength range from 800 - 8555A, and reaches a peak signal-to-noise ratio of over 300 per 1A resolution element in the rest frame. We have identified over 80 emission line features in the spectrum. Emission line peak velocity shifts of the broad permitted and semi-forbidden lines are strongly correlated with ionization energy, as previously suggested, but we find that the narrow forbidden lines are also shifted by amounts which are strongly correlated with ionization energy. The magnitude of the forbidden line shifts is < 100 km/s, compared to shifts of up to 550 km/s for some of the permitted and semi-forbidden lines. At wavelengths longer than the Ly-a emission, the continuum of the geometric mean composite is well-fit by two power-laws, with a break at approximately 5000A. The frequency power law index, alpha_nu, is -0.44 from 1300 - 5000A, and -2.45 redward of about 5000A. The abrupt change in slope can be accounted for partly by host galaxy contamination at low redshift. Stellar absorption lines, including higher-order Balmer lines, seen in the composites suggest that young or intermediate age stars make a significant contribution to the light of the host galaxies. An electronic table of the median quasar template is available.

description: Belt and Road Initiative is an ambitious plan of China that can significantly change the global trade. It aims to connect and co-operate China across six main economic corridors. 29 economies are involved in BRI project from Europe and Central Asia and one of them is Georgia. Georgia gets involved in Silk Road project with its new port in Anaklia city, which is under construction and Baku-Tbilisi-Kars railway. China’s economic plan is not new thing for Georgia, because it has already been included in the same Silk Road project centuries ago. In the past few years, economic cooperation between Georgia and China deepened. On 1January 2018, free-trade agreement between Georgia and China came into force and Georgia became the first country in Eurasia to conclude a free-trade agreement with China. After Russia, China became the second-biggest wine market for Georgia.Scientific work ‘China’s Belt and Road Initiative and Georgia as a Participating Economy’ describes the importance of BRI for participating countries, particularly for Georgia and China. It includes five parts: introduction, observation, findings, conclusion and bibliography. The major research, findings, with qualitative and quantitative methods, responds to the question, what will be benefits for Georgia and China after the full implementation of BRI? – For Georgia, close relations with China means increased trade flow. Georgian-Chinese relations also complement the country’s Euro-Atlantic orientation and its ongoing integration. The BRI gives more importance to Anaklia Deep Sea Port, which will expand the efficiency of Georgian economy. Anaklia port can solve the unemployment problem in western Georgia. Ecologically, BRI sustainable development motivation is vital for Georgia, because Tbilisi faces problems in green transportation, green building and green energy. Large infrastructure projects of BRI can mitigate current overcapacity in Chinese steel and construction sectors. The initiative will be an economic stimulus package for its Western and Central Provinces, which witness rapidly growing income inequality. The BRI will support China’s need to promote itself in high technology and service sectors.

description: We present memory-based learning approaches to shallow parsing and apply these to five tasks: base noun phrase identification, arbitrary base phrase recognition, clause detection, noun phrase parsing and full parsing. We use feature selection techniques and system combination methods for improving the performance of the memory-based learner. Our approach is evaluated on standard data sets and the results are compared with that of other systems. This reveals that our approach works well for base phrase identification while its application towards recognizing embedded structures leaves some room for improvement.

description: We performed an analysis of coherence properties of the 4-th generation high-energy storage rings with emittance values of 10 pmrad. It is presently expected that a storage ring with these low emittance values will reach diffraction limit at hard X-rays. Simulations of coherence properties were performed with the XRT software and analytical approach for different photon energies from 500 eV to 50 keV. It was demonstrated that a minimum photon emittance (diffraction limit) reached at such storage rings is λ/2π. Using mode decomposition we showed that at the parameters of the storage ring considered in this work, diffraction limit will be reached for soft X-ray energies of 500 eV. About ten modes will contribute to the radiation field at 12 keV photon energy and even more modes give a contribution at higher photon energies. Energy spread effects of the electron beam in a low emittance storage ring were analysed in detail. Simulations were performed at different relative energy spread values from zero to 0.2%. We observed a decrease of the degree of coherence with an increase of the relative energy spread value. Our analysis shows that to reach diffraction limit for high photon energies electron beam emittance should go down to 1 pmrad and below.

description: This study was designed to assess household water demand and willingness to pay (WTP) for improved water services in the Lowveld and Lubombo regions of Swaziland. Using both purposive and cluster sampling methods, survey data were collected from 314 households in the month of April 2015, mainly in three constituencies, namely; Siphofaneni, Matsanjeni and Somnongtongo. The study used the Contingent Valuation Method (CVM) to estimate WTP using a double bounded dichotomous choice elicitation format. In assessing the determinants of WTP and water consumption, the study employed both the probit model and double-log regression model, respectively. Results from the study showed that about 67% of households in the study areas were willing to pay the initial bid offered for an improvement in their water services. Generally, about 93% of the sampled households were willing to pay something for the improvement in water services. The study further showed that the estimated mean WTP for a 20 litre of water was E0.471. On household water demand, results showed that the mean daily per capita water consumption was 13.12 litres. Results from the probit model showed that household income, education, gender, distance and owning a backyard garden positively and significantly affect WTP. Furthermore, age, water quality and the initial bid offered negatively and significantly affected WTP for improved water. On the other hand, results from the double-log regression model showed that education, household income and ownership of a water tank were positive factors influencing household water consumption. In addition, household size, distance and years of using source were negative determinants of household water consumption. The implications of the study are that factors such as age, income, level of education, gender, distance and household size should be considered when setting domestic water tariffs and designing strategies on demand management.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.
Les données ainsi que les images des fiches sont accessibles sur le site Internet à l'adresse suivante : http://studium-baldwin.lamop.fr/.
Les transcriptions des fiches ont été effectuées par des étudiants de Paris 1 Panthéon - Sorbonne mais elles n'ont pas été corrigées par la suite.

description: Mahowald proved the height 1 telescope conjecture at the prime 2 as an application of his seminal work on bo-resolutions. In this paper we study the height 2 telescope conjecture at the prime 2 through the lens of tmf-resolutions. To this end we compute the structure of the tmf-resolution for a specifc type 2 complex Z. We find that, analogous to the height 1 case, the E1-page of the tmf-resolution possesses a decomposition into a v2-periodic summand, and an Eilenberg-MacLane summand which consists of bounded v2-torsion. However, unlike the height 1 case, the E2-page of the tmf-resolution exhibits unbounded v2-torsion. We compare this to the work of Mahowald-Ravenel-Shick, and discuss how the validity of the telescope conjecture is connected to the fate of this unbounded v2-torsion: either the unbounded v2-torsion kills itself off in the spectral sequence, and the telescope conjecture is true, or it persists to form v2-parabolas and the telescope conjecture is false. We also study how to use the tmf-resolution to effectively give low dimensional computations of the homotopy groups of Z. These computations allow us to prove a conjecture of the second author and Egger: the E(2)-local Adams-Novikov spectral sequence for Z collapses.

description: GUSANA E.M. FROEHLICH, 1978
Ty p e s p e c i e s: G e o p l a n a c r u c i a t a G r a f f, 1 8 9 9, designated by E. M. Froehlich (1978).
New diagnosis: Gusanini with body colour pattern with cross-banding; creeping sole broad, with more than half the body width. Sensory border wide, around the anterior tip. Cutaneous musculature thickness relative to body height at the pre-pharyngeal region ranges between 16 and 24%. Testes dorsally located. Male atrium large. Penis papilla of small intra-antral type. Female canal enters ventrally. Without adhesive musculoglandular organs and sensory papillae. Copulatory apparatus without adenodactyls.
Distribution: As for that of the tribe.
Remarks on Gusanini: This monogeneric tribe includes six species of Gusana (Almeida et al., 2022). This genus was recovered as a clade in Geoplaninae by Almeida et al. (2022), and also in this paper. Gusana was erected by E. M. Froehlich (1978) and re-diagnosed by Ogren & Kawakatusu (1990) and Almeida et al. (2022). The tribe is diagnosed herein by a set of diagnostic features of Gusana herein elevated to the tribe level. Therefore, the diagnosis of Gusana is shortened.

description: The purpose of this paper is to investigate the applicability of applying gamification approach on the physiotherapy rehabilitation. A new developing game called JCave was designed and developed for the prove of concept. The propose game target the children from six to twelve years of age who need physical therapy in their upper limbs. JCave is a finite and multilevel single-player 3D video game. The player's role is to collect jewels from a cave and increase his/her score by performing physical therapy exercises. The game uses Xbox360 Kinect as a motion capture camera to observe gestures and track the child. Automatic gesture recognition algorithms are implemented for elbow flexion-extension exercises and shoulder flexion, which are the active range of motion (AROM) exercises for both the right and left arms. The JCave game is implemented using Unity3D and Blender to design 3D model objects.
Inelastic Tunneling Spectroscopy in a D-wave Superconductor

description: We propose a mechanism to use inelastic tunneling spectrosopy STM to detect a single spin in a d-wave superconductor and in a pseudogap state, based on a direct exchange coupling J between the surface electrons and the local spin S in a magnetic field. This coupling will produce a kink in a dI/dV characteristic at Zeeman energy of the spin ω_0. We find that for relevant values of parameters signal scales as dI^2/dV^2 \simeq (JN_0)^2 Θ(eV - ω_0) and could be in the range of 10^{-2} of the bare density of states where N_0 is the density of states for surface electrons. Scattering in superconductor with the coherence peak at gap maximum Δleads also to strong features at Δ+ ω_0. This suggests a new technique for a detection of a local spin excitation with STM. We also consider a detection of a local vibrational mode as a simple extension of the spin case.

description: The aim of the project is to define a metallicity/gravity/temperature scale vs spectral types for metal-poor M dwarfs. We obtained intermediate-resolution ultraviolet (R~3300), optical (R~5400), and near-infrared (R~3900) spectra of 43 M subdwarfs (sdM), extreme subdwarfs (esdM), and ultra-subdwarfs (usdM) with the X-shooter spectrograph on the European Southern Observatory Very Large Telescope. We compared our atlas of spectra to the latest BT-Settl synthetic spectral energy distribution over a wide range of metallicities, gravities, and effective temperatures to infer the physical properties for the whole M dwarf sequence (M0--M9.5) at sub-solar metallicities and constrain the latest state-of-the-art atmospheric models. The BT-Settl models reproduce well the observed spectra across the 450-2500 nm wavelength range except for a few regions. We find that the best fits are obtained for gravities of log(g) = 5.0-5.5 dex for the three metal classes. We infer metallicities of [Fe/H] = -0.5, -1.5, and -2.0+/-0.5 dex and effective temperatures of 3700-2600 K, 3800-2900 K, and 3700-2900 K for subdwarfs, extreme subdwarfs, and ultra-subdwarfs, respectively. Metal-poor M dwarfs tend to be warmer by about 200+/-100 K and exhibit higher gravity than their solar-metallicity counterparts. We derive abundances of several elements (Fe, Na, K, Ca, Ti) for our sample but cannot describe their atmospheres with a single metallicity parameter. Our metallicity scale expands the current scales available for midly metal-poor planet-host low-mass stars. Our compendium of moderate-resolution spectra covering the 0.45--2.5 micron range represents an important legacy value for large-scale surveys and space missions to come.
