description: The development of modern industry and the system of factory work, together with a large migration of people across oceans and continents, especially during the nineteenth and early twentieth century, has led to major changes in the way people work and do business. The economy shifted from agriculture and family cooperatives to the urban, the industrial organization. The impact of these changes on individuals, professionals, families, communities and the environment, as well as the rise of a new class of wealthy business leaders, but also new areas of poverty, have led to increased reporting of ethical debate. At the same time, if someone has a clear interest in a given company, then to its employees, whose lives and professional careers closely associated with it. Business ethics pays attention to employees (including employees of the management) in several ways. First, most of the ethical problems and crises that occur include operation and participation of employees. Ethical analysis of choice, communication, and behavior of employees occupying a significant part of business ethics. How can managers and owners treat the workers is another ethical issue of interest. Job security, compensation, safety, harassment, prejudice, and even the quality of work experience, are all aspects that are ethically important.

description: We study the inverse boundary value problems of determining a potential in the Helmholtz type equation for the perturbed biharmonic operator from the knowledge of the partial Cauchy data set. Our geometric setting is that of a domain whose inaccessible portion of the boundary is contained in a hyperplane, and we are given the Cauchy data set on the complement. The uniqueness and logarithmic stability for this problem were established in [37] and [7], respectively. We establish stability estimates in the high frequency regime, with an explicit dependence on the frequency parameter, under mild regularity assumptions on the potentials, sharpening those of [7].

description: We continue our recent endeavor in which a time-dependent black hole solution of a one-loop quantum-corrected Einstein-scalar system was obtained and its near-horizon behavior was analyzed. The energy analysis led to a trans-Planckian scaling behavior near the event horizon. In the present work the analysis is extended to a rotating black hole solution of an Einstein-Maxwell-scalar system with a Higgs potential. Although the analysis becomes much more complex compared to that of the previous, we observe the same basic features, including the quantum-gravitational trans-Planckian energy near the horizon.

Time-resolved spectroscopy and photometry of the dwarf nova FS Aurigae in quiescence
Creators: name: Neustroev, V. V.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2001
Subjects: subject: Astrophysics (astro-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We present results of non-simultaneous time-resolved photometric and spectroscopic observations of the little-studied dwarf nova FS Aur in quiescence. The spectrum of FS Aur shows strong and broad emission lines of hydrogen and HeI, and of weaker HeII 4686 and CIII/NIII blend, similar to other quiescent dwarf novae. All emission lines are single-peaked, however their form varies with orbital phase. Absorption lines from a late-type secondary are not detected. From the radial velocity measurements of the hydrogen lines H$_β$ and H$_γ$ we determined a most probable orbital period P=0.059+-0.002. This period agrees well with the 0.0595+-0.0001 estimate by Thorstensen et al. (1996). On the other hand, the period of photometric modulations is longer than the spectroscopic period and can be estimated as 3 hours. Longer time coverage during a single night is needed to resolve this problem. Using the semi-amplitude of the radial velocities, obtained from measurements of hydrogen and helium lines, and some empirical and theoretical relations we limited the basic parameters of the system: a mass ratio q>=0.22, a primary mass M_1=0.34 - 0.46 M_sun, a secondary mass M_2<= 0.1M_sun, and an inclination angle i=51^{\circ} - 65^{\circ}. Doppler tomography has shown at least two bright regions in the accretion disk of FS Aur. The first, brighter spot is located at phase about 0.6. The second spot is located opposite the first one and occupies an extensive area at phases about 0.85 - 1.15.

description: We point out that there is a natural explanation, in terms of the center vortex confinement mechanism, for the expected Casimir/Sine Law scaling of k-string tensions in the large N limit. The crucial ingredient is the existence of Z(N) center monopoles, which go over to U(1) monopoles in this limit. Vortex densities leading to Casimir/Sine Law scaling at large-N are constructed; these densities have no obvious pathologies and in particular do not grow with N. We also note that center vortices are stable classical solutions of the Wilson action, for all SU(N) gauge theories with N>4, and extend this old result to a broad class of lattice actions motivated by the improved action program and the renormalization group.

Stochastic order parameter dynamics for phase coexistence in heat conduction

Year: 2019

description: We propose a stochastic order parameter equation for describing phase coexistence in steady heat conduction near equilibrium. By analyzing the stochastic dynamics with a non-equilibrium adiabatic boundary condition, where total energy is conserved over time, we derive a variational principle that determines thermodynamic properties in non-equilibrium steady states. The resulting variational principle indicates that the temperature of the interface between the ordered region and the disordered region becomes greater (less) than the equilibrium transition temperature in the linear response regime when the thermal conductivity in the ordered region is less (greater) than that in the disordered region. This means that a super-heated ordered (super-cooled disordered) state appears near the interface, which was predicted by an extended framework of thermodynamics proposed in [N. Nakagawa and S.-i. Sasa, Liquid-gas transitions in steady heat conduction, Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 119}, 260602, (2017).]

description: Macedonian agriculture has received substantial donor support in the past two decades. Now, when most of those donor projects are completed, this paper looks at what have been the most important factors for achieving sustainability, and how the level of sustainability of the foreign assistance in the agriculture can be improved. The analysis is based on 8 different foreign donor projects in Macedonia. The data collection is done through a primary research – interviews with stakeholders of those projects, and secondary research – already existing publications on the topic. In the analyzed cases the achieved sustainability of the results is not on a required level. The factors that contributed to this can be seen in the lack of political support, socio-cultural aspects, institutional aspects, economic and financial aspects as well as the external factors. This gives basis for recommendations for the main stakeholders and potential users of this paper: the national government to ensure that the donors’ country strategies are in line with the national strategies; to the donors to use the participatory approach in the project design; and to the beneficiaries (farmers) to take greater responsibility and commitment for ownership of the achieved project results.

description: CoVID-19 has demonstrated how vulnerable the human race is to an infectious agent. The pandemic has been a massive struggle for all, putting people and services under enormous pressure. However, to prevent this scenario from becoming a regular occurrence with an even greater loss of life, the global community must act now to quell the effects of antibiotic resistance. Potential new solutions to antibiotic resistance are on the horizon, and with every new solution, no matter how big or small, comes the possibility to reduce death caused by antibiotic resistance, simultaneously bringing hope to so many of those already affected by this microbial war
Characteristic polynomials of random Hermitian matrices and Duistermaat-Heckman localisation on non-compact Kaehler manifolds

description: We reconsider the problem of calculating a general spectral correlation function containing an arbitrary number of products and ratios of characteristic polynomials for a N x N random matrix taken from the Gaussian Unitary Ensemble (GUE). Deviating from the standard "supersymmetry" approach, we integrate out Grassmann variables at the early stage and circumvent the use of the Hubbard-Stratonovich transformation in the "bosonic" sector. The method, suggested recently by one of us, is shown to be capable of calculation when reinforced with a generalization of the Itzykson-Zuber integral to a non-compact integration manifold. We arrive to such a generalisation by discussing the Duistermaat-Heckman localization principle for integrals over non-compact homogeneous Kaehler manifolds. In the limit of large $N$ the asymptotic expression for the correlation function reproduces the result outlined earlier by Andreev and Simons.
description: 34 page, no figures. In this version we added a few references and modified the introduction accordingly. We also included a new Appendix on deriving our Itzykson-Zuber type integral following the diffusion equation method

description: Long before Joseph Priestley’s observation that heating lead and mercury oxides generates oxygen, Leonardo da Vinci proposed that one of the two main gases that make
up air must be capable of supporting both flames and life. Today, nearly five hundred years after da Vinci’s death, researchers are busy trying to understand the evolution and
activation of oxygen in biochemical reactions, as well as the maladies that result when oxygen activation is not tightly regulated. At the forefront of the field of ‘oxygen activation’ are questions regarding how O2 can be made to react with high specificity at ambient temperature and how we can understand nature’s oxygen activation strategies.

description: Children and adolescents interact in peer groups, which are known to influence a range of psychological and behavioral outcomes. In developmental psychology and related disciplines, social cognitive mapping (SCM), as implemented with the SCM 4.0 software, is the most commonly used method for identifying peer groups from peer report data. However, in a series of four studies, we demonstrate that SCM has an unacceptably high risk of false positives. Specifically, we show that SCM will identify peer groups even when applied to random data. We introduce backbone extraction and community detection as one promising alternative to SCM, and offer several recommendations for researchers seeking to identify peer groups from peer report data.

description: We describe in detail how a sliding scale is introduced in the renormalization of a QFT according to integer-dimensional implicit regularization scheme. We show that since no regulator needs to be specified at intermediate steps of the calculation, the introduction of a mass scale is a direct consequence of a set of renormalization conditions. As an illustration the one loop beta-function for QED and lambda*phi^4 theories are derived. They are given in terms of derivatives of appropriately systematized functions (related to definited parts of the amplitudes) with respect to a mass scale mu. Our formal scheme can be easily generalized to higher loop calculations.

description: We propose a systematic coset construction of non-equilibrium effective field theories (EFTs) governing the long-distance and late-time dynamics of relativistic, finite-temperature condensed matter systems. Our non-equilibrium coset construction makes significant advances beyond more standard coset constructions in that it takes advantage of recently-developed techniques, which allow the formulation of non-equilibrium effective actions that account for quantum and thermal fluctuations as well as dissipation. Because these systems exist at finite temperature, the EFTs live on the closed-time-path of the Schwinger-Keldysh contour. Since the coset construction and the non-equilibrium effective actions may be unfamiliar to many readers, we include brief introductions to these topics in an effort to make this paper self-contained. To demonstrate the legitimacy of this coset construction, we successfully reproduce the known EFTs for fluids and superfluids at finite temperature. Then, to demonstrate its utility, we construct novel EFTs for solids, supersolids, and four phases of liquid crystals, all at finite temperature. We thereby combine the non-equilibrium effective action and the coset construction to create a powerful tool that can be used to study many-body systems out of thermal equilibrium.

description: We present a detailed X-ray study of the microquasar GRS 1915+105 during a variability class transition observed in 2000 June with the PPCs of the Indian X-ray Astronomy Experiment. We supplement this observation with data from the RXTE archives. The source made a transition from a steady low-hard state to a regular oscillatory behaviour in the light curve known as bursts or class `rho' (Belloni et al. 2000) between 2000 May 11 and 17 and reverted back to the low-hard state on 2000 June 27. A gradual change in the burst recurrence time from about 75 s to about 40 s was observed which then increased to about 120 s during the ~ 40 days of class `rho'. The regular bursts disappeared from the X-ray light curves and the class transition was observed to occur within 1.5 hours on 2000 June 27 with the PPCs. A correlation is found between the observed QPO frequency at 5-8 Hz in the quiescent phase and the average X-ray intensity of the source during the class `rho'. We notice a strong similarity between the properties of the source during the class `rho' and those during the oscillatory phase of the observations of class `alpha'. From the timing and spectral analysis, it is found that the observed properties of the source over tens of days during the class `rho' are identical to those over a time scale of a few hundreds of seconds in the class `alpha'. Examining the light curves from the beginning of the RXTE/PCA and RXTE/ASM observations, it is found that the change of state from radio-quiet low-hard state to high state occurs through the X-ray classes `rho' and `alpha' which appear together during the state transition. It is further inferred that the source switches from low-hard state to the class `rho' through the intermediate class `alpha'.

description: We introduce and study "elliptic zeta values", a two-parameter deformation of the values of Riemann's zeta function at positive integers. They are essentially Taylor coefficients of the logarithm of the elliptic gamma function, and share the SL(3,Z) modular properties of this function. Elliptic zeta values at even integers are related to Eisenstein series and thus to sums of odd powers of divisors. The elliptic zeta values at odd integers can be expressed in terms of generating series of sums of even powers of divisors.

Derivative-Free Method For Composite Optimization With Applications To Decentralized Distributed Optimization

description: In this paper, we propose a new method based on the Sliding Algorithm from Lan(2016, 2019) for the convex composite optimization problem that includes two terms: smooth one and non-smooth one. Our method uses the stochastic noised zeroth-order oracle for the non-smooth part and the first-order oracle for the smooth part. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first method in the literature that uses such a mixed oracle for the composite optimization. We prove the convergence rate for the new method that matches the corresponding rate for the first-order method up to a factor proportional to the dimension of the space or, in some cases, its squared logarithm. We apply this method for the decentralized distributed optimization and derive upper bounds for the number of communication rounds for this method that matches known lower bounds. Moreover, our bound for the number of zeroth-order oracle calls per node matches the similar state-of-the-art bound for the first-order decentralized distributed optimization up to to the factor proportional to the dimension of the space or, in some cases, even its squared logarithm.

description: We analyze the statistical properties of the circumnuclear HII regions of a sample of 52 nearby galaxies ($v < 1000km/s) from archival HST/NICMOS H-band and Pa alpha (1.87micron) observations at unprecedented spatial resolutions of between 1 and 30pc. We find HII regions in the central regions of most galaxies, and more than a hundred in 8 galaxies. In contrast to disk HII regions, the physical properties (luminosity and size) of individual circumnuclear HII regions do not vary strongly with the morphological type of the host galaxy, nor does the number of circumnuclear HII regions per unit area. The H alpha luminosity within the central kpc, as derived from HII region emission, is significantly enhanced in early-type (S0/a-Sb) galaxies. We find evidence that bars increase the circumnuclear star formation, presumably by funneling gas from the disk towards the nucleus. Barred galaxies exhibit enhanced luminosities of the brightest HII region, the central kpc H alpha luminosities (an effect mostly due to the early type galaxies in our sample), and the star formation rates per unit stellar mass (which could also be understood as the integral equivalent widths of Pa alpha) over the central kpc with respect to non-barred galaxies. We fit the luminosity functions and diameter distributions of the circumnuclear HII regions in 8 galaxies where we can catalog enough HII regions to do so in a meaningful way. We use power laws and find that the fitted slopes of the HII region LF are exactly in the previously found ranges, and even confirm a trend with steeper slopes in galaxies of earlier morphological type. This implies that the physical processes giving rise to enhanced star formation in the circumnuclear regions of galaxies must be similar to those in disks.

description: For a zero-temperature Landau symmetry breaking transition in $n$-dimensional space that completely breaks a finite symmetry $G$, the critical point at the transition has the symmetry $G$. In this paper, we show that the critical point also has a dual symmetry - a $(n-1)$-symmetry described by a higher group when $G$ is Abelian or an algebraic $(n-1)$-symmetry beyond higher group when $G$ is non-Abelian. In fact, any $G$-symmetric system can be viewed as a boundary of $G$-gauge theory in one higher dimension. The conservation of gauge charge and gauge flux in the bulk $G$-gauge theory gives rise to the symmetry and the dual symmetry respectively. So any $G$-symmetric system actually has a larger symmetry called categorical symmetry, which is a combination of the symmetry and the dual symmetry. However, part (and only part) of the categorical symmetry must be spontaneously broken in any gapped phase of the system, but there exists a gapless state where the categorical symmetry is not spontaneously broken. Such a gapless state corresponds to the usual critical point of Landau symmetry breaking transition. The above results remain valid even if we expand the notion of symmetry to include higher symmetries and algebraic higher symmetries. Thus our result also applies to critical points for transitions between topological phases of matter. In particular, we show that there can be several critical points for the transition from the 3+1D $Z_2$ gauge theory to a trivial phase. The critical point from Higgs condensation has a categorical symmetry formed by a $Z_2$ 0-symmetry and its dual - a $Z_2$ 2-symmetry, while the critical point of the confinement transition has a categorical symmetry formed by a $Z_2$ 1-symmetry and its dual - another $Z_2$ 1-symmetry.

description: Objective: The objective of this study was to explore how age and sex impact the ability to respond to an emergency when in a self-driving vehicle. Methods: For this study, 60 drivers (male: 48%, female: 52%) of different age groups (teens: aged 16–19, 32%, adults: aged 35–54, 37%, seniors: aged 65+, 32%) were recruited to share their perspectives on self-driving technology. They were invited to ride in a driving simulator that mimicked a vehicle in autopilot mode (longitudinal and lateral control). Results: In a scenario where the automated vehicle unexpectedly drives toward a closed highway exit, 21% of drivers did not react at all. For this event, where drivers had 6.2 s to avoid a crash, 40% of drivers crashed. Adults aged 35–54 crashed less than other age groups (33% crash rate), whereas teens crashed more (47% crash rate). Seniors had the highest crash rate (50% crash rate). Males (38% crash rate) crashed less than females (43% crash rate). All participants with a reaction time less than 4 s were able to avoid the crash. Conclusions: The results from the simulation drives show that humans lose focus when they do not actively drive so that their response in an emergency does not allow them to reclaim control quickly enough to avoid a crash.

description: While many small American dairy farms are struggling to stay in business due to fluctuating milk prices and rising production costs, value-added products such as cheese may help to boost revenue and diversify production practices. This study assesses consumer preferences and willingness to pay (WTP) for selected cheese attributes (farmstead, artisan, organic, local, and use of renewable energy in cheese production) through a conjoint survey conducted in Vermont, Manhattan, and Boston. Survey participants were found to segment into two groups: a quality-seeking group that displays strong preferences and a significant WTP of 15% to 25% more for each of the quality attributes, and a price-sensitive group with preference ratings highly determined by price. This research provides useful information to managers and marketers involved in farmstead and artisan dairy production and marketing.

description: The formation and evolution of binary stars is a critical component of several fields in astronomy. The most numerous sources for gravitational wave observatories are inspiraling and/or merging compact binaries, while binary stars are present in nearly every electromagnetic survey regardless of the target population. Simulations of large binary populations serve to both predict and inform observations of electromagnetic and gravitational wave sources. Binary population synthesis is a tool that balances physical modeling with simulation speed to produce large binary populations on timescales of days. We present a community-developed binary population synthesis suite: COSMIC which is designed to simulate compact-object binary populations and their progenitors. As a proof of concept, we simulate the Galactic population of compact binaries and their gravitational wave signal observable by the Laser Interferometer Space Antenna (LISA). We find that $\sim10^8$ compact binaries reside in the Milky Way today, while $\sim10^4$ of them may be resolvable by LISA.

Csp1, a cold-shock protein homolog in Xylella fastidiosa is involved in stress response and biofilm formation

description: Bacterial cold shock-domain proteins (CSPs) are conserved nucleic acid binding chaperone proteins that play important roles in adaptation to environmental changes and stressors such as cold adaptation and conditions unrelated to temperature. Csp1, a temperature-independent cold shock protein homolog, acts as a virulence factor in Xylella fastidiosa, a bacterial pathogen of grapevine and other economically important crops. In addition to virulence, Csp1 contributes to X. fastidiosa survival at low temperatures and under high salt and oxidative stress conditions, in vitro. However, little is known about the specific function(s) of Csp1 in X. fastidiosa, aside from general single-stranded nucleic acid binding activity. To investigate the influence of Csp1 on X. fastidiosa gene expression, we used Nanopore’s MinION to sequence transcriptomes of wild-type X. fastidiosa strain Stag’s Leap and a csp1 deletion mutant (Δcsp1) under standard growth conditions (28°C) and cold stress (15°C). Our analysis revealed changes in expression of several genes important for motility and biofilm formation in Δcsp1 compared to wild-type. One gene of intertest, pilA1, encodes a type IV pili subunit protein and was up-regulated in the Δcsp1 mutant. The type IV pili is required for twitching motility in X. fastidiosa and contributes to virulence by facilitating bacterial movement inside the host vascular tissue. Previous studies in other strains of X. fastidiosa showed deleting pilA1 leads to overabundance of type IV pili and increased biofilm formation. Xylem vessel occlusion caused by biofilms is one major mechanism of X. fastidiosa pathogenicity, so Csp1 may act as a virulence factor by influencing the expression of genes involved in biofilm formation and motility. We also observed a significant decrease in biofilm formation with the Δcsp1 mutant compared to the wild type strain in liquid media, which may be the result of increased expression of pilA1. The csp1 mutant was also less viable during long term growth compared to the wild-type strain, in vitro, further indicating Csp1 may be involved in stress response. Studies in other bacteria have identified links between stress response and biofilm formation, suggesting that Csp1 may play a role in both virulence and stress response by influencing genes important for biofilm formation.
