description: We study global defects coupled to higher-dimensional gravity with a negative cosmological constant. This paper is mainly devoted to studying global black brane solutions which are extended global defects surrounded by horizons. We find series solutions in a few separated regions and confirm numerically that they can be mutually connected. When the world volume of the brane is Ricci-flat, the brane is surrounded by a degenerated horizon, while it is surrounded by two horizons when the world volume has a positive constant curvature. Each solution corresponds to an extremal and a non-extremal state, respectively. Their causal structures resemble those of the Reissner-Nordström black holes in anti-de Sitter spacetime. However, the non-extremal black brane is not a static object, but an inflating brane. In addition, we briefly discuss a brane world model in the context of the global black branes. We comment on a few thermodynamic properties of the global black branes, and discuss a decrease of the cosmological constant on the brane world through the thermodynamic instability of the non-extremal global black brane.

description: The focus of this article is on assessing how risk aversion, enterprise variability and resource endowments affect farm land-use decisions and economic returns. A theoretical model of a two-enterprise, two-constraint farm is developed, and then, an empirical illustration for an Australian farm is provided. The methodology used builds on previous expected mean-variance (EV) models by incorporating land and budget constraints. The Kuhn–Tucker conditions of the EV model are examined to highlight that changes in resource endowments have larger effects on economic returns, than do changes in risk aversion or enterprise gross margin variability. It was also found that combinations of enterprise mixes that do not use all available resources can produce higher economic returns, relative to some enterprise mixes that use all available resources.

description: We introduce an improved algorithm for the dynamic taxi sharing problem, i.e. a dispatcher that schedules a fleet of shared taxis as it is used by services like UberXShare and Lyft Shared. We speed up the basic online algorithm that looks for all possible insertions of a new customer into a set of existing routes, we generalize the objective function, and we efficiently support a large number of possible pick-up and drop-off locations. This lays an algorithmic foundation for taxi sharing systems with higher vehicle occupancy - enabling greatly reduced cost and ecological impact at comparable service quality. We find that our algorithm computes assignments between vehicles and riders several times faster than a previous state-of-the-art approach. Further, we observe that allowing meeting points for vehicles and riders can reduce the operating cost of vehicle fleets by up to 15% while also reducing rider wait and trip times.

description: A conceptual design for a negative hydrogen ion injection system for the TRIUMF negative ion cyclotron is presented. This system provides ions at an energy of 300 keV in pulses of suitable duration and frequency for acceleration by the cyclotron. Average beam currents in excess of 1000 μA are expected when pulses of 7 nsec are injected. Peak intensities of up to 10 mA are expected for pulses of less than 1 nsec. The design incorporates an Ehlers type ion source held at a 300 keV potential by a very well-regulated Cockcroft-Walton rectifier. The accelerated ions are transported in a system utilizing electrostatic quadrupoles and achromatic bending systems to maintain the time structure of the beam pulses. Chopping and bunching are controlled at cyclotron frequency. The phase angle is adjusted for the correct beam arrival at the cyclotron accelerating gap. The beam is transported from a separate ion source room over the top of the cyclotron shielding and then down the axis of the cyclotron to the inflector near the cyclotron median plane. Stray fields of over 40 G are expected. Magnetic shielding will be required.

Zusammenfassung: Die Vermessung von Topographie mittels Laserscanbefliegung (ALS) ist eine etablierte und effiziente Methode zur großflächigen Erfassung von Höhendaten mit hoher Genauigkeit. Im deutschen Wattenmeer wird ALS häufig zur Vermessung der topographischen Höhen im Wattenmeer eingesetzt, z. B. bei jährlichen Messkampagnen im Bereich der Außenelbe. Die Vermessung unterhalb der Wasseroberfläche ist für Laserscanmessinstrumente jedoch herausfordernd aufgrund von Trübung im Wasser. Daher erbringen beflogene Höhenvermessungen insbesondere auf vorübergehend trockenen Gebieten wie beispielsweise Watt oder Salzmarschen die besten Ergebnisse. Um die räumliche Abdeckung einer Befliegung zu maximieren, wurden in diesem Use-Case die räumlich variablen Eintrittszeiten des Tideniedrigwassers aus numerischen Modelldaten abgeleitet, um so die Planung einer
Befliegungsroute auf minimale Wasserstände zu optimieren.

  Diagnosis (sensu stricto ). Apical margin of frontoclypeal region evenly rounded and twice as wide as the distance between antennal sockets; antennomere IV longer than II, shorter than III, as long as V; well-developed basally open lateral antennal grooves present; male protarsomere I simple, with basal sex combs; metacoxal plates medially more than 6.0 times wider than laterally; elytral epipleura evenly punctate; elytral apices dehiscent, spiniform; last visible ventrite either strongly produced, rounded or truncated; tarsal claws basally toothed; lateral surfaces of meso- and metatibiae with setae and transverse rows of spine combs (Otto, pers. obs.).
 Note. A non-type French Guyanese specimen of Fornax ruficollis Laporte, the type species of Fornax, has been studied during the course of the study. During the examination, I observed the presence of evenly punctate elytral epipleuron and dehiscent, spiniform elytral apices. The presence of dehiscent, spiniform elytral apices are also evident in Spinifornax Fleutiaux. It appears that Fornax and Spinifornax may be congeneric. All species of Fornax in the Nearctic region possess grooved elytral epipleura and elytral apices meet, contrary to the observed character states present in F. ruficollis. It would indicate that all Nearctic species currently assigned to Fornax are misplaced. For the time being they are left in Fornax until a global revision of the genus is conducted, which includes evaluating nearly all misplaced species presently assigned, evaluation of the status of two synonymized groups within Fornax, as well as creating new group names for any misplaced species that cannot fit in any recognized groups within Macraulacini.

description: Acinetobacter baumannii is a typically short, almost round, rod-shaped (coccobacillus) Gram-negative bacterium. It can be an opportunistic pathogen in humans, affecting people with compromised immune systems, and it is becoming increasingly important as a hospital-associated (nosocomial) infection. It has also been isolated from environmental soil and water samples. In this work, unlike conventional medical methods like antibiotics, the influence of atmospheric-pressure cold plasma on this bacterium is evaluated by means of a colony count technique and scanning electron microscopy. The plasma used here refers to streamers axially propagating into a helium channel penetrating the atmospheric air. The plasma is probed with high resolution optical emission spectroscopy and copious reactive species are unveiled under low-temperature conditions. Based on the experimental results, post-treatment (delayed) biochemical effects on Acinetobacter baumannii and morphological modifications appear dominant, leading to complete deactivation of this bacterium.

description: Dairy goats appear to be the most suitable milk producing animal species for the arid parts of the Eastern Cape Province. Dairy goats fetch high net returns to a small-scale farmer. A study was carried out to evaluate the long-term economic viability of investments in dairy goats, in the Eastern Cape Province of South Africa. Results of the study show that commercial production of dairy goats, together with a milk processing plant in the region, would be profitable and would have benefits from both economic and social points of view as well as for the environment. With a discount rate of 15%, the Net Present Worth (NPW), Benefit/Cost ratio (B/C) and Internal Rate of Return (IRR) were found to be R4.3 million, 1.44 and 54% respectively. Further, a sensitivity analysis to changes in benefits and costs of inputs was conducted. This found the above proposal to be viable, even when benefits are reduced by 25%. The project proposal was still viable when cost of inputs was inflated by 25%. In both cases, the Benefit/Cost ratio is greater than 1 and IRR is greater than the current market rate of interest. However, the combined effect of reducing the benefit by 25% and inflating costs by 25%, would result in negative NPW. Results from a survey carried out further show the possibility and viability of producing satisfactory levels of milk from dairy goats in the Eastern Cape.

We show that the spectrum of fluctuations of the number of vertices with a given degree is Poissonian. These mesoscopic fluctuations are strong in the large-degree region, where $P(k) \lesssim 1/N$ ($N$ is the total number of vertices in a network), and are important in networks with fat-tailed degree distributions.

description: Doubly polar molecules, possessing an electric dipole moment and a magnetic dipole moment, can strongly couple to both an external electric field and a magnetic field, providing unique opportunities to exert full control of the system quantum state at ultracold temperatures. We propose a method for creating a purely long-range doubly polar homonuclear molecule from a pair of strongly magnetic lanthanide atoms, one atom being in its ground level and the other in a superposition of quasi-degenerate opposite-parity excited levels [Phys.~Rev.~Lett.~\textbf{121}, 063201 (2018)]. The electric dipole moment is induced by coupling the excited levels with an external electric field. We derive the general expression of the long-range, Stark, and Zeeman interaction energies in the properly symmetrized and fully-coupled basis describing the diatomic complex. Taking the example of holmium, our calculations predict shallow long-range wells in the potential energy curves that may support vibrational levels accessible by direct photoassociation from pairs of ground-level atoms.

description: We study the time-dependent modulation effect and derive the local interstellar spectra (LIS) for the cosmic ray (CR) proton, helium, boron and carbon. A two-dimensional modulation model including the variation of the interplanetary environment with time is adopted to describe modulation process. The propagation equation of CRs in the heliosphere is numerically solved by the package Solarprop. We derive the LIS by fitting the latest results of several experiments, including Voyager 1, PAMELA, BESS-POLARII and ACE, during low solar activity periods. We further study the modulation in the polarity reversal periods with the PAMELA proton data. We find that the rigidity dependence of the diffusion coefficient is critical to explain the modulation effect during reversal periods. Our results also indicate a power law relation between the diffusion coefficient and the magnitude of the heliospheric magnetic field (HMF) at the Earth.

 Hosts and distribution. This species was described ex Aramus guarauna (L.) (Gruiformes: Aramidae) from “ Nouvelle-Grenade ” (Trouessart 1886). However, this species was repeatedly found on Threskiornis aethiopicus (Latham) (Pelecaniformes: Threskiornithidae) from Cameroon (M'balmayo) and Congo (Gaud & Mouchet 1957; Gaud 1982) and the latter author unambiguously said that the record from A. guarauna was the result of contamination.

description: This study found that a water market emerged within the Lower Orange River for river water rights. The market emergence is attributed to the scarcity of water in this region and the demonstrated demand by farmers for a change in the allocation of these rights. Transfers were facilitated by authorisation of the Department of Water Affairs and Forestry permitting transfers of water rights, and the enabling environment defined by the regional Water Affairs office. Improving water trade could be achieved by the delegation of authority to the regional Department of Water Affairs to approve transfers, extending support to market transfers of canal water, and ensuring that water extraction is closely monitored as river water use increases in future. A discriminant analysis indicated that water rights transferred from farmers with potential to irrigate wine grapes, raisin grapes, and field crops to farmers with potential to irrigate table grapes, representing the highest valued use of the water. Farmers stated that the proposed new Water Law created much uncertainty about their water rights, stifling water market activity, and that it will lead to underinvestment in irrigated agriculture. Overcoming such institutional and legal barriers for market performance will require that water use allocations be specified for reasonable periods, be inherently secure, and water trading be permitted through the relevant legislatures.

description: Undoubtedly, the Farmer Support Program (FSP) has been the most significant initiative at promoting structural change, away from subsistence farming towards commercialisation of agriculture in South Africa. The implementation and effects of the FSP have been exhaustively analysed, and the initiative has been judged to be mostly successful. This paper reports on a different issue related to the FSP : An analysis of the farm and household characteristics that may be used to predict the likely participation of small-scale farmers in the FSP. Probit analysis was used to analyse data obtained from 100 participants and nonparticipants in the Keiskammahoek FSP in the Eastern Cape Province. The analysis yielded a correct prediction in 78.6% of cases.

description: This paper weighs up the income and jobs generated by the heavy industry proposed in the Coega Industrial Development Zone (IDZ) project against those that would be generated by agriculture and aquaculture projects in the Coega River basin. It shows that a ‘conservative scenario’ heavy industry Coega IDZ option generates within South Africa almost three times as much income but less than half the number of jobs as a combined agro-aquaculture one (and about two times as much income if negative income effects are added in), and requires about 45 times as much capital. In addition heavy industry may crowd other industries in the area. The conclusions drawn are: • that the opportunity cost of the Coega IDZ and Port Project is high, especially in terms of sustainable employment, • that government should consider more carefully what the most efficient ways are of exploiting the natural capital of the area (the alluvial soils, the coastline and the supplies of fresh water), • that if conflicts of interest between private sector interests are likely, there are dangers in development initiatives based on private-public partnerships, and • that the heavy industry currently proposed for the Coega IDZ may limit the scope for future industrial developments in the area, by using up much of the ‘safe’ waste assimilating capacity of the air

description: We propose a modification of special relativity in which a physical energy, which may be the Planck energy, joins the speed of light as an invariant, in spite of a complete relativity of inertial frames and agreement with Einstein's theory at low energies. This is accomplished by a non-linear modification of the action of the Lorentz group on momentum space, generated by adding a dilatation to each boost in such a way that the Planck energy remains invariant. The associated algebra has unmodified structure constants, and we highlight the similarities between the group action found and a transformation previously proposed by Fock. We also discuss the resulting modifications of field theory and suggest a modification of the equivalence principle which determines how the new theory is embedded in general relativity.

description: We present IRAM-30m Telescope $^{12}$CO and $^{13}$CO observations of a sample of 55 luminous and ultraluminous infrared galaxies (LIRGs and ULIRGs) in the local universe. This sample is a subset of the Great Observatory All-Sky LIRG Survey (GOALS), for which we use ancillary multi-wavelength data to better understand their interstellar medium and star formation properties. Fifty-three (96%) of the galaxies are detected in $^{12}$CO, and 29 (52%) are also detected in $^{13}$CO above a 3$σ$ level. The median full width at zero intensity (FWZI) velocity of the CO line emission is 661km s$^{-1}$, and $\sim$54% of the galaxies show a multi-peak CO profile. Herschel photometric data is used to construct the far-IR spectral energy distribution of each galaxy, which are fit with a modified blackbody model that allows us to derive dust temperatures and masses, and infrared luminosities. We make the assumption that the gas-to-dust mass ratio of (U)LIRGs is comparable to local spiral galaxies with a similar stellar mass (i.e., gas/dust of mergers is comparable to their progenitors) to derive a CO-to-H$_2$ conversion factor of $\langleα\rangle=1.8^{+1.3}_{-0.8}M_\odot$(K km s$^{-1}$pc$^{2}$)$^{-1}$; such a value is comparable to that derived for (U)LIRGs based on dynamical mass arguments. We derive gas depletion times of $400-600$Myr for the (U)LIRGs, compared to the 1.3Gyr for local spiral galaxies. Finally, we re-examine the relationship between the $^{12}$CO/$^{13}$CO ratio and dust temperature, confirming a transition to elevated ratios in warmer systems.

 Remarks. This mite species was originally described by Trouessart (1899) as a member of the genus Megninia Berlese. The only existing male specimen of this species (Trouessart Collection 29i2, MNHN, Paris, France) actually belongs to the genus Diplaegidia. The record of this species on a parrot is quite obviously the result of accidental contamination, because Diplaegidia is restricted to Columbiformes (Gaud 1976). In the present paper we move Megninia xiphopterna Trouessart, 1899 to the genus Diplaegidia Hull and create a new combination.

description: The rates of returns (RORs) to investments in cattle production research programs were estimated using the Akino-Hayami index-number approach. The RORs to investments in the dairy and beef cattle improvement schemes from 1970 to 1996 were estimated to be 51% and 44% respectively. A simple Benefit-Cost model was used to test the robustness of these results. The estimates derived from this method corroborate the previous result for the dairy scheme while the return to the beef scheme reduced to 29%. The estimated returns from these schemes are higher than the returns from aggregate livestock research, which provides some information for decisions on research funding allocations. Given the nature of this research, future cost recovery measures should be pursued with an increasing share of private sector investment.

Order parameter symmetry and mode coupling effects at dirty superconducting quantum phase transitions

description: We derive an order-parameter field theory for a quantum phase transition between a disordered metal and an exotic (non-s-wave) superconductor. Mode coupling effects between the order parameter and other fermionic soft modes lead to an effective long-range interaction between the anomalous density fluctuations which is reflected in singularities in the free energy functional. However, this long-range interaction is not strong enough to suppress disorder fluctuations. The asymptotic critical region is characterized by run-away flow to large disorder. For weak coupling, this asymptotic region is very narrow. It is preempted by a wide crossover regime with mean-field critical behavior and, in the p-wave case, logarithmic corrections to scaling in all dimensions.

description: Higher order calculations in perturbative Quantum Field Theories often produce coupled linear systems of differential equations which factorize to first order. Here we present an algorithm to solve such systems in terms of iterated integrals over an alphabet the structure of which is implied by the coefficient matrix of the given system. We apply this method to calculate the master integrals in the color-planar and complete light quark contributions to the three-loop massive form factors.

description: The production of wool in South Africa has declined substantially over the past twenty years. This has been a consequence of a number of factors, the most important being the relative decline in world prices, both gradually before the collapse of the Australian wool price scheme, and more abruptly since then. The purpose of this article is to analyse the impact of the changes in the price of wool and some other variables on the supply response of the South African wool industry.

description: We adapt a program used for delineating mouse chromosome territories in fluorescence microscopy images using the automated multi-scale 2D Wavelet Transform Modulus Maxima (WTMM) segmentation method to map glacier termini in satellite images. The goal of the project is to develop an unsupervised approach to efficiently quantify glacier terminus changes from satellite images so that we can investigate the spatial and temporal patterns in terminuschange and explore the environmental factors driving them. Here we describe the adapted method, which we have applied to a subset of glaciers spanning Greenland’s periphery for method development and error quantification. Although we focus here on only a small subset of the 641 marine-terminating glaciers around Greenland’s periphery and panchromatic imagery from the Landsat 8 satellite, the unsupervised method will be used to construct terminus position time series for all of Greenland’s peripheral marine-terminating glaciers using the full ~40-year Landsat satellite imagery archive.

description: China’s dependence on coal is a major contributor to local and global environmental problems. In this paper we estimate the price elasticity of demand for coal in China using a panel of province-level data for the period 1998–2012. We find evidence that provincial coal demand has become increasingly price elastic. As of 2012 we estimate that this elasticity was in the range –0.3 to –0.7 when responses over two years are considered. The results imply that China’s coal market is becoming more suited to price-based approaches to reducing emissions. Our estimates suggest that the elimination of coal consumption subsidies could reduce national coal use and related emissions by around 2%.
Gravitational collapse and its boundary description in AdS

description: We provide examples of gravitational collapse and black hole formation in AdS, either from collapsing matter shells or in analogy to the Oppenheimer-Sneider solution. We then investigate boundary properties of the corresponding states. In particular, we describe the boundary two-point function corresponding to a shell outside its horizon; if the shell is quasistatically lowered into the horizon, the resulting state is the Boulware state. We also describe the more physical Hartle-Hawking state, and discuss its connection to the quasistatic shell states and to thermalization on the boundary.

description: The TRIUMF cyclotron uses quarter wave resonators instead of conventional dees as accelerating electrodes. Proper functioning of the accelerator requires the maintenance of a certain voltage equality along the accelerating gap, which in turn requires that the resonators be structurally rigid and exhibit high mechanical stability. Space limitations within the vacuum tank, as well as preference for a design not incorporating stand-off insulator supports, led to a compromise solution where RF power losses and resonator rigidity are nevertheless acceptable. Five basic shapes for the arms of the resonators were evaluated from the viewpoint of structural rigidity, RF losses and fabrication simplicity. Several model tests carried out by TRIUMF in order to verify the merits of certain design parameters are also described. The report concludes that the use of roll-bond panels (aluminum/ silver), reinforced with I-shaped aluminum stiffeners, will result in an acceptable resonator design.

description: In this paper we investigate the introduction of an export tax on steam coal levied by an individual country (Australia), or a group of major exporting countries. The policy motivation would be twofold: generating tax revenues against the background of improved terms-of-trade, while CO2 emissions are reduced. We construct and numerically apply a two-level game consisting of an optimal policy problem at the upper level, and an equilibrium model of the international steam coal market (based on COALMOD-World) at the lower level. We find that a unilaterally introduced Australian export tax on steam coal has little impact on global emissions and may be welfare reducing. On the contrary, a tax jointly levied by a "climate coalition" of major coal exporters may well leave these better off while significantly reducing global CO2 emissions from steam coal by up to 200 Mt CO2 per year. Comparable production-based tax scenarios consistently yield higher tax revenues but may be hard to implement against the opposition of disproportionally affected local stakeholders depending on low domestic coal prices.

description: Rooftop solar systems have two major benefits: a reduction of carbon emissions (a public good) and future energy bill savings for consumers. However, the availability of solar energy systems to low-income households is constrained by access to finance for the initial investment cost, an issue which could potentially be addressed with the use of income contingent loans (ICLs). By applying unconditional quantile econometric methods to HILDA income data we illustrate that for a $10,000 loan for home owners ICLs can be used with little or no cost to government to help finance the next one million solar energy devices.
