subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A reentrant superconducting effect was observed in YBCO particles as a consequence of their size and microstructure. It rises from the coexistence between bulk superconductivity and surface ferromagnetism, where the enhanced magneto-electric coupling induced by broken spatial-inversion symmetry in layers near structural defects plays a very important role on surface ferromagnetism. The study assumes grain boundaries inside the particles act as additional surface regions that enhance the ferromagnetic properties. Magnetic and superconducting properties as a function of particle size were studied. Particularly, the 385 nm particles which were the ones that exhibited the reentrant superconducting effect. The Ginzburg-Landau parameter and the critical temperatures are $k \sim 1.29$, T$_{c1}$ = 92 $\pm$ 5 K, and T$_{c2}$ = 10 $\pm$ 3 K.

Second order asymptotics in fixed-length source coding and intrinsic randomness
Creators: name: Hayashi, Masahito
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2005
Subjects: subject: Information Theory (cs.IT)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: Second order asymptotics of fixed-length source coding and intrinsic randomness is discussed with a constant error constraint. There was a difference between optimal rates of fixed-length source coding and intrinsic randomness, which never occurred in the first order asymptotics. In addition, the relation between uniform distribution and compressed data is discussed based on this fact. These results are valid for general information sources as well as independent and identical distributions. A universal code attaining the second order optimal rate is also constructed.
Technological change and agricultural household income distribution: theory and evidence from China

Subjects: Consumer/Household Economics

description: This article applies a general equilibrium model to analyse the impact of new rice technology on household income and uses agricultural household survey data from China to test the implications of this model. It is shown that, when a new rice technology becomes available, the adopting household will reallocate resources to increase rice production and reduce the production of other goods. Meanwhile, the non‐adopting households will do the opposite. Thus, the income from rice becomes increasingly concentrated in the adopting households and income from non‐rice becomes increasingly concentrated in the non‐adopting households. If only one source of income is examined, the introduction of new rice technology increases the inequality of income distribution in rural areas. But, if the total household income is examined, the distributional inequality is mitigated.

description: Using a coarse-grained bead-spring model of flexible polymer chains, the structure of a polymeric nanodroplet adsorbed on a chemically decorated flat wall is investigated by means of Molecular Dynamics simulation. We consider sessile drops on a lyophilic (attractive for the monomers) region of circular shape with radius R_D while the remaining part of the substrate is lyophobic. The variation of the droplet shape, including its contact angle, with R_D is studied, and the density profiles across these droplets also are obtained. In addition, the interaction of droplets adsorbed on two walls forming a slit pore with two lyophilic circular regions just opposite of one another is investigated, paying attention to the formation of a liquid bridge between both walls. A central result of our study is the measurement of the force between the two substrate walls at varying wall separation as well as the kinetics of droplet merging. Our results are compared to various phenomenological theories developed for liquid droplets of mesoscopic rather than nanoscopic size.

description: Exclusive rho^+ rho^- production in two-photon collisions involving a single highly-virtual photon is studied with data collected at LEP at centre-of-mass energies 89 GeV < \sqrt{s} < 209 GeV with a total integrated luminosity of 854.7 pb^-1. The cross section of the process gamma gamma^* -> rho^+ rho^- is determined as a function of the photon virtuality, Q^2, and the two-photon centre-of-mass energy, W_gg, in the kinematic region: 1.2 GeV^2 < Q^2 < 30 GeV^2 and 1.1 GeV < W_gg < 3 GeV. The ρ^+ρ^- production cross section is found to be of the same magnitude as the cross section of the process gamma gamma^* -> rho^0 rho^0, measured in the same kinematic region by L3, and to have similar W_gg and Q^2 dependences.

description: This review article describes the main contributions in the literature on commodity futures markets. It is argued that modern studies have focused primarily on technical questions, with insufficient economic content. More research needs to be directed towards understanding fundamental economic issues such as why so few farmers hedge, the impacts of government farm programs on commodity futures, and the market impacts of commodity pools. The literature has failed to explain the prevalence of inverted markets in grains and oilseeds, and there is unexplainable price volatility in markets such as hogs and orange juice.

description: We examine meteoroid orbits recorded by the Canadian Meteor Orbit Radar (CMOR) from 2012-2019, consisting of just over 11 million orbits in a search for potential interstellar meteoroids. Our 7.5 year survey consists of an integrated time-area product of $\sim$ 7$\times$ 10$^6$ km$^2$ hours. Selecting just over 160000 six station meteor echoes having the highest measured velocity accuracy from within our sample, we found five candidate interstellar events. These five potential interstellar meteoroids were found to be hyperbolic at the 2$σ$-level using only their raw measured speed. Applying a new atmospheric deceleration correction algorithm developed for CMOR, we show that all five candidate events were likely hyperbolic at better than 3$σ$, the most significant being a 3.7$σ$ detection. Assuming all five detections are true interstellar meteoroids, we estimate the interstellar meteoroid flux at Earth to be at least 6.6 $\times$ 10$^{-7}$ meteoroids/km$^{2}$/hr appropriate to a mass of 2 $\times$ 10$^{-7}$kg. Using estimated measurement uncertainties directly extracted from CMOR data, we simulated CMOR's ability to detect a hypothetical 'Oumuamua - associated hyperbolic meteoroid stream. Such a stream was found to be significant at the 1.8$σ$ level, suggesting that CMOR would likely detect such a stream of meteoroids as hyperbolic. We also show that CMOR's sensitivity to interstellar meteoroid detection is directionally dependent.

description: Respiratory rate (RR) can be estimated from the photoplethysmogram (PPG) recorded by optical sensors in wearable devices. The fusion of estimates from different PPG features has lead to an increase in accuracy, but also reduced the numbers of available final estimates due to discarding of unreliable data. We propose a novel, tunable fusion algorithm using covariance intersection to estimate the RR from PPG (CIF). The algorithm is adaptive to the number of available feature estimates and takes each estimates' trustworthiness into account. In a benchmarking experiment using the CapnoBase dataset with reference RR from capnography, we compared the CIF against the state-of-the-art Smart Fusion (SF) algorithm. The median root mean square error was 1.4 breaths/min for the CIF and 1.8 breaths/min for the SF. The CIF significantly increased the retention rate distribution of all recordings from 0.46 to 0.90 (p $

The proof of the numerical stability of these two modified algorithms is given. The numerical tests in Matlab demonstrate the computational advantages of the proposed modifications. The appendix contains the proof of numerical stability of Goertzel's algorithm of polynomial evaluation.

description: We present a systematic study of periodic X-ray sources in the Limiting Window (LW), a $\sim$70 arcmin$^2$ field representative of the inner Galactic bulge and the target of $\sim$1 Ms Chandra observations. Using the Gregory-Loredo algorithm, which applies Bayes's theorem to the phase-folded light curve and is well-suited for irregularly sampled X-ray data, we detect 25 periodic signals in 23 discrete sources, among which 15 signals are new discoveries and two sources show dual periods. The vast majority of the 23 periodic sources are classified as magnetic cataclysmic variables (CVs), based on their period range, X-ray luminosities, spectral properties, and phase-folded light curves that are characteristic of spin modulation. Meanwhile, there is a paucity of non-magnetic CVs seen as periodic sources, which can be understood as due to a low detection efficiency for eclipsing sources. Under reasonable assumptions about the geometry of magnetic CVs and a large set of simulated X-ray light curves, we estimate the fraction of magnetic CVs in the inner Galactic bulge to be $\lesssim$23%, which is similar to that in the solar neighborhood. There is an apparent lack of long-period ($\gtrsim$3.3 hours) CVs in the LW, when contrasted with the range of known CVs in the solar neighborhood. We suggest that this might be an age effect, in the sense that CVs in the inner bulge are more evolved systems and have substantially shrunk their orbits.

Framing and policy development for children’s environmental health in the United States and Canada : the influence of institutions
Creators: name: Boothe, Katherine
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: The influence of American environmental policy on Canada has long been a topic of interest to scholars concerned with the diffusion of knowledge and policy across national borders. This research seeks to contribute to this work by examining a relatively new direction in environmental policy, children's environmental health, and asking why a movement to frame and develop policies to address children's unique vulnerabilities to environmental risks has been an important component of US environmental policy for more than a decade, but until recently, has been almost entirely absent in Canada. I choose to focus on changes to pesticide policy that take children's health into account, and I find that Canada's slow adoption of children's environmental health frames and policy is not merely a matter of lagging behind the United States, but may be attributed to significant institutional barriers to the development of parallel policies.

description: We predict and analyze the drying time of respiratory droplets from a COVID-19 infected subject, which is a crucial time to infect another subject. The drying of the droplet is predicted by diffusion-limited evaporation model for a sessile droplet placed on a partially-wetted surface with a pinned contact line. The variation of droplet volume, contact angle, ambient temperature, and humidity are considered. We analyze the chances of the survival of the viruses present in the droplet, based on the lifetime of the droplets in several conditions, and find that the chances of survival of the virus are strongly affected by each of these parameters. The magnitude of shear stress inside the droplet computed using the model is not large enough to obliterate the virus. We also explore the relationship between the drying time of a droplet and the growth rate of the spread of COVID-19 for five different cities, and find that they are weakly correlated.

description: Black farmers in America have had a long and arduous struggle to own land and to operate independently. For more than a century after the Civil War, deficient civil rights and various economic and social barriers were applied to maintaining a system where many blacks worked as farm operators with a limited and often total lack of opportunity to achieve ownership and operating independence. Diminished civil rights also limited collective action strategies, such as cooperatives and unions. Even so, various types of cooperatives, including farmer associations, were organized in black farming communities prior to the 1960s. During the 1960s, the civil rights movement brought a new emphasis on cooperatives. Leaders and organizations adopted an explicit purpose and role of black cooperatives in pursuing independent farming. Increasingly, new technology and integrated contracting systems are diminishing independent decision-making in the management of farms. As this trend expands, more cooperatives may be motivated, with a determination similar to those serving black farmers, to pursue proactive strategies for maintaining independent farming.

description: In the last years different studies have revealed the usefulness of a microcanonical analysis of finite systems when dealing with phase transitions. In this approach the quantities of interest are exclusively expressed as derivatives of the entropy $S = \ln Ω$ where $Ω$ is the density of states. Obviously, the density of states has to be known with very high accuracy for this kind of analysis. Important progress has been achieved recently in the computation of the density of states of classical systems, as new types of algorithms have been developed. Here we extend one of these methods, originally formulated for systems with discrete degrees of freedom, to systems with continuous degrees of freedoms. As an application we compute the density of states of the three-dimensional XY model and demonstrate that critical quantities can directly be determined from the density of states of finite systems in cases where the degrees of freedom take continuous values.

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.

title: Effects of Winter Ticks (Dermacentor albipictus) on the Reproduction of Utah Moose (Alces alces shirasi)
Creators: name: Robertson, Samuel D.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 2024

description: Moose (Alces alces) are the largest and only solitary members of the deer family. The species can be found across many northern regions around the world. Moose are considered to have high intrinsic, recreational and ecological value. In recent years, there have been concerns about declining moose populations in portions of the species circumpolar range. Moose in Utah (Alces alces shirasi) belong to the Shiras subspecies, which is the smallest of the four subspecies found in North America. Utah moose are the southernmost naturally occurring moose population in the world. The Utah Division of Wildlife Resources (UDWR) has been concerned about possible moose population declines in Utah and with collaboration from Utah State University they initiated a study that began in 2013. The initial phase of the study estimated vital rates that included pregnancy, calving rates, calf recruitment and adult survival along with maternal age and body condition. This initial study found that adults had relatively high survival rates and maternal age and body condition influenced reproductive rates. In addition, fluctuating reproductive rates were identified a potential source of population instability.
The research reported in this thesis represents the second phase of the moose study. My UWDR colleagues and I continued to collect data on moose vital rates and body condition. We also initiated a new effort to measure winter tick (Dermacentor albipictus) loads on radio-collared moose because observations and analyses during phase one of the study suggested that winter ticks were limiting population growth. In phase two of the study, I found evidence that winter ticks limited moose reproductive success. I found that poor body condition and high tick loads decreased rates of calving rates and calf survival. Pregnancy rates were affected but in unexpected ways.
Results from this study will help wildlife managers in achieving management objectives and help make future decisions. These results highlight the potential for winter ticks to limit the population growth of moose in Utah via reduced reproductive success. My results also suggest that the impact of winter ticks on reproductive success is mediated to some extent by maternal body condition, such that moose in excellent condition are more likely to overcome the harmful effects of winter ticks on reproduction.

Recroom urban stagescape
Creators: name: Xu, Lu
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2009

description: This project explores a new design motif to create vibrant public open spaces in the city. It proposes the redesign of one urban plaza as a way to explore the idea of "stagescapes" as public places where visitors become both audience and performer, enhancing a city's social, recreational and cultural standing. Vancouver's Queen Elizabeth Theater (QET) complex and plaza was selected as a design site because it is the main civic performing arts facility for a dynamic, growing, multicultural urban region. With little connection between the inside architecture and outside plaza, a lack of visitor-friendly spaces and little attempt made to integrate the site with its surroundings, the area's potential is not being met. A growing downtown residential population highlights the need for an engaging space designed to attract and engage users both day and night. This situation presents an opportunity to reconsider the future design and program of the plaza as a stagescape. Analysis at the regional (Vancouver), local (Downtown) and site (QET complex) levels establishes the case for an urban stagescape at this location. The design itself is presented as a model which could be modified to fit local conditions elsewhere, providing at the least a case study of one proposal to enliven an urban space through performance art.

description: We revisit from a quantum-information perspective a classic problem of polaron theory in one dimension. In the context of the Holstein model we show that a simple analysis of quantum entanglement between excitonic and phononic degrees of freedom allows one to effectively characterize both the small and large polaron regimes as well as the crossover in between. The small (large) polaron regime corresponds to a high (low) degree of bipartite quantum entanglement between the exciton and the phonon cloud that clothes the exciton. Moreover, the self-trapping transition is clearly displayed by a sharp drop of exciton-phonon entanglement.

description: Conserver la diversité biologique à l’échelle du continent, tel est le défi qu’entend relever l’Union européenne en adoptant en 1992 la directive Habitats. A travers cette initiative, les décideurs européens souhaitent apporter leur contribution à ce qui constitue aujourd’hui l’un des nouveaux enjeux planétaires. Les résultats des recherches présentés ici rendent compte de la mise en oeuvre de cette politique à l’échelle de la France. Ils sont centrés sur la phase d’élaboration (1999-2005) de «documents d’objectifs», au cours de laquelle il s’est agi de produire, sur chaque site désigné au titre le la directive, un document de gestion visant à accomplir les objectifs de conservation de la biodiversité. L’analyse s’attache à examiner le processus concerté d’élaboration de ces actions de gestion à l’échelle des sites, en questionnant plus particulièrement la dynamique d’interaction entre les acteurs mobilisés.

description: Il volume raccoglie i risultati del progetto di ricerca biennale dell’Università di Cagliari «Trafficking between languages»: idioms in contact in pre-unitary Sardinia, finanziato nell’ambito della Convenzione triennale tra la Fondazione di Sardegna e gli Atenei Sardi (annualità 2020). La ricerca ha avuto come obiettivo principale la disamina del contatto linguistico tra sardo, italiano e castigliano nella produzione testuale di Sardegna, colta nel momento del trapasso dalla dominazione iberica al governo sabaudo. L’ambito cronologico sincronico è individuato prevalentemente nel Settecento sardo, con qualche sconfinamento nel primo Ottocento, ma il quadro prospettico poggia sulle dinamiche interculturali e multilingui del Seicento.
Il perimetro d’indagine è costituito da un ampio repertorio di testi redatti in sardo, in italiano e in spagnolo, manoscritti e a stampa, di carattere non solo letterario: si tratta di una produzione quanto mai abbondante ed eterogenea che spazia dalla documentazione giuridico-amministrativa alla letteratura didascalica, in cui scorre il nuovo spirito progressista dell’Illuminismo, sino alla trattatistica di taglio storiografico, lessicografico e storico-lin guistico, in cui prende forma la riflessione sulla questione della lingua.
Il gruppo di lavoro è composto da studiosi appartenenti a differenti ambiti disciplinari (filologia, linguistica, letteratura, storia), strutturati principalmente presso l’Università di Cagliari, ma anche presso altre istituzioni nazionali e internazionali, che con le loro ricerche hanno notevolmente ampliato l’estensione geografica dell’indagine, approdata così non soltanto in Sardegna, ma, attraverso il Mediterraneo, anche in Sicilia, a Napoli e nell’Impero turco.

description: Along with the Coronavirus pandemic, another crisis has manifested itself in the form of mass fear and panic phenomena, fueled by incomplete and often inaccurate information. There is therefore a tremendous need to address and better understand COVID-19's informational crisis and gauge public sentiment, so that appropriate messaging and policy decisions can be implemented. In this research article, we identify public sentiment associated with the pandemic using Coronavirus specific Tweets and R statistical software, along with its sentiment analysis packages. We demonstrate insights into the progress of fear-sentiment over time as COVID-19 approached peak levels in the United States, using descriptive textual analytics supported by necessary textual data visualizations. Furthermore, we provide a methodological overview of two essential machine learning (ML) classification methods, in the context of textual analytics, and compare their effectiveness in classifying Coronavirus Tweets of varying lengths. We observe a strong classification accuracy of 91% for short Tweets, with the Naive Bayes method. We also observe that the logistic regression classification method provides a reasonable accuracy of 74% with shorter Tweets, and both methods showed relatively weaker performance for longer Tweets. This research provides insights into Coronavirus fear sentiment progression, and outlines associated methods, implications, limitations and opportunities.

description: The complex molecular structure and interesting activation mechanisms of naturally occurring enediynes have inspired the synthesis of a variety of simpler model systems to mimic their properties. While in most model compounds nucleophilic attack, isomerization or bioreduction are used to activate the unsaturated system for diradical cyclization, some attempts have been made to employ metal-ion coordination for this purpose. Significant enhancement of the thermal reactivity has been achieved by metal-ion induced conformational and electronic changes of suitably substituted enediynes, such as 1, 5, 6, 17 and 18. Enediyne activation by stoichiometric or catalytic formation of vinylidene complexes, such as 22, from terminal alkynes has also been investigated. This paper summarizes recent results pursuing the activation of enediyne diradical cyclization by metal ions.

CO, 13CO and [CI] in Galaxy Centers

description: Measurements of [CI], (J=2-1) 13CO and (J=4-3) 12CO emission from quiescent, starburst and active galaxy centers reveal a distinct pattern characterized by relatively strong [CI] emission. The [CI] to 13CO emission ratio increases with central [CI] luminosity. It is lowest in quiescent and mild starburst centers and highest for strong starburst centers and active nuclei. Neutral C abundances are close to, or even exceed, CO abundances. The emission is characteristic of warm and dense gas rather than either hot tenuous or cold very dense gas. The relative intensities of CO, [CI], [CII] and far-infrared emission suggest that the dominant excitation mechanism in galaxy centers may be different from that in Photon-Dominated Regions (PDRs).

description: We study the global dust and (molecular) gas content in the Lyman Alpha Reference Sample (LARS), i.e. 14 local star-forming galaxies. We characterize their interstellar medium and relate newly derived properties to quantities relevant for Ly$α$ escape. We observed LARS galaxies with Herschel/PACS, SOFIA/FIFI-LS, the IRAM 30m telescope and APEX, targeting far-infrared (FIR) continuum and emission lines of [C II]158$μ$m, [O I]63$μ$m, [O III]88$μ$m and low-J CO lines. Using Bayesian methods we derive dust model parameters and estimate total gas masses for all LARS galaxies, taking into account a metallicity-dependent gas-to-dust ratio. Star formation rates were estimated from FIR, [C II]158$μ$m and [O I]63$μ$m luminosities. LARS covers a wide dynamic range in the derived properties, with FIR-based star formation rates from $\sim$0.5-100 $M_{\odot}\ yr^{-1}$, gas fractions between $\sim$15-80% and gas depletion times ranging from a few hundred Myr up to more than 10 Gyr. The distribution of LARS galaxies in the $Σ_{gas}$ vs. $Σ_{SFR}$ (Kennicutt-Schmidt plane) is thus quite heterogeneous. However, we find that LARS galaxies with the longest gas depletion times, i.e. relatively high gas surface densities ($Σ_{gas}$) and low star formation rate densities ($Σ_{SFR}$), have by far the highest Ly$α$ escape fraction. A strong $\sim$linear relation is found between Ly$α$ escape fraction and the total gas (HI+H$_2$) depletion time. We argue that the Ly$α$ escape in those galaxies is driven by turbulence in the star-forming gas that shifts the Ly$α$ photons out of resonance close to the places where they originate. We further report on an extreme [C II]158$μ$m excess in LARS 5, corresponding to $\sim$14$\pm$3% of the FIR luminosity, i.e. the most extreme [C II]-to-FIR ratio observed in a non-AGN galaxy to date.

description: Additional file 3. Gating strategy used for the dead cell and OVA uptake assays.A Splenocytes from 3-week-old chickens were labelled with CTV for 10 min and boiled at 56 °C for 30 min to inactivate the cells. Dead cells were co-incubated with bead-sorted splenic MRC1+ cells at a 1:1 ratio for 1 h. Then, dead cell uptake was determined according to the CTV+ cells among the MRC1loMHCIIhi and MRC1hiMHCIIlo cells using flow cytometry. B OVA uptake was determined by analysing intensity of FITC in MRC1loMHCIIhi and MRC1hiMHCIIlo cells. Then, the uptake ability was calculated from the data obtained at 39 °C, which was normalized according to data obtained at 4 °C. The histogram presents the intensity of FITC in each subset.

description: Contractions of Lie algebras are combined with the classical matrix method of Gel'fand to obtain matrix formulae for the Casimir operators of inhomogeneous Lie algebras. The method is presented for the inhomogeneous pseudo-unitary Lie algebras $I\frak{u}(p,q)$. This procedure is extended to contractions of $I\frak{u}(p,q)$ isomorphic to an extension by a derivation of the inhomogeneous special pseudo-unitary Lie algebras $I\frak{su}(p-1,q)$, providing an additional analytical method to obtain their invariants. Further, matrix formulae for the invariants of other inhomogeneous Lie algebras are presented.
