description: Fermi arcs, i.e., surface states connecting topologically-distinct Weyl points, represent a paradigmatic manifestation of the topological aspects of Weyl physics. Here, we investigate a light-matter interface based on the photonic counterpart of these states and we prove that it can lead to phenomena with no analogue in other setups. First, we show how to image the Fermi arcs by studying the spontaneous decay of one or many emitters coupled to the system's border. Second, we demonstrate that the Fermi arc surface states can act as a robust quantum link. To do that we exploit the negative refraction experienced by these modes at the hinges of the system. Thanks to this mechanism a circulatory photonic current is created which, depending on the occurrence of revivals, yields two distinct regimes. In the absence of revivals, the surface states behave as a dissipative chiral quantum channel enabling, e.g., perfect quantum state transfer. In the presence of revivals, an effective off-resonant cavity is induced, which leads to coherent emitter couplings that can entangle them maximally. In addition to their fundamental interest, our findings evidence the potential offered by the photonic Fermi arc light-matter interfaces for the design of more robust quantum technologies.

description: Based on farmers' supply behavior theory and price expectations theory, this paper establishes grain farmers' supply response model of two major grain varieties (early indica rice and mixed wheat) in the major producing areas, to test whether the minimum grain purchase price policy can have price-oriented effect on grain production and supply in the major producing areas. Empirical analysis shows that the minimum purchase price published annually by the government has significant positive impact on farmers' grain supply in the major grain producing areas. In recent years, China steadily raises the level of minimum grain purchase price, which has played an important role in effectively protecting grain farmers' interests, mobilizing the enthusiasm of farmers' grain production, and ensuring the market supply of key grain varieties.

description: Gauge and gravitational theories in asymptotically flat settings possess infinitely many conserved charges associated with large gauge transformations or diffeomorphisms that are nontrivial at infinity. To what extent do these charges constrain the scattering in these theories? It has been claimed in the literature that the constraints are trivial, due to a decoupling of hard and soft sectors for which the conserved charges constrain only the dynamics in the soft sector. We show that the argument for this decoupling fails due to the failure in infinite dimensions of a property of symplectic geometry which holds in finite dimensions. Specializing to electromagnetism coupled to a massless charged scalar field in four dimensional Minkowski spacetime, we show explicitly that the two sectors are always coupled using a perturbative classical computation of the scattering map. Specifically, while the two sectors are uncoupled at low orders, they are coupled at quartic order via the electromagnetic memory effect. This coupling cannot be removed by adjusting the definitions of the hard and soft sectors (which includes the classical analog of dressing the hard degrees of freedom). We conclude that the conserved charges yield nontrivial constraints on the scattering of hard degrees of freedom. This conclusion should also apply to gravitational scattering and to black hole formation and evaporation.
 In developing the classical scattering theory, we show that generic Lorenz gauge solutions fail to satisfy the matching condition on the vector potential at spatial infinity proposed by Strominger to define the field configuration space, and we suggest a way to remedy this. We also show that when soft degrees of freedom are present, the order at which nonlinearities first arise in the scattering map is second order in Lorenz gauge, but can be third order in other gauges.

description: We examine the behaviour of a charged particle in a two-dimensional confining potential, in the presence of a magnetic field. The confinement serves to remove the otherwise infinite degeneracy, but additional ingredients are required to produce sensible results. We treat both circular and square geometries, and in the latter we explicitly demonstrate the gauge invariance of the energy levels and wave function amplitudes. Both bulk states and edge states are examined, and in the latter case, with sufficiently high quantum numbers we achieve significant differences in the square and circular geometries. Results are achieved using straightforward matrix mechanics, in a manner that is accessible to novices in the field.

description: We consider $L$-functions attached to representations of the Galois group of the function field of a curve over a finite field. Under mild tameness hypotheses, we prove non-vanishing results for twists of these $L$-functions by characters of order prime to the characteristic of the ground field and by certain representations with solvable image. We also allow local restrictions on the twisting representation at finitely many places. Our methods are geometric, and include the Riemann-Roch theorem, the cohomological interpretation of $L$-functions, and some monodromy calculations of Katz. As an application, we prove a result which allows one to deduce the conjecture of Birch and Swinnerton-Dyer for non-isotrivial elliptic curves over function fields whose $L$-function vanishes to order at most 1 from a suitable Gross-Zagier formula.

description: On the basis of empirical data concerning "four agricultural subsidies" in Chongqing City, we establish panel data model to analyze the general effect of "four agricultural subsidies" on grain yield, and the structural effect of "four agricultural subsidies" on grain yield. Based on the F-test and Hausman test, we estimate the model using GLS or FGLS method. The results show that "four agricultural subsidies" have significant positive effect on grain yield; the structural effect of "four agricultural subsidies" on grain yield is different (comprehensive subsidies for means of agricultural production has the strongest effect on grain yield, followed by subsidies for promotion of improved variety of seed; the effect of subsidies for purchase of agricultural machinery on grain yield is not significant). Therefore, governments at all levels should continue to strengthen the support efforts in "four agricultural subsidies", and continually optimize the structure to increase grain yield.

Exact T=0 Eigenstates of the Isovector Pairing Hamiltonian

Subjects: subject: Nuclear Theory (nucl-th)

description: We derive the exact $T=0$ seniority-zero eigenstates of the isovector pairing Hamiltonian for an even number of protons and neutrons. Nucleons are supposed to be distributed over a set of non-degenerate levels and to interact through a pairing force with constant strength. We show that these eigenstates (and among them, in particular, the ground state) are linear superpositions of products of $T=1$ collective pairs arranged into $T=0$ quartets. This grouping of protons and neutrons first into $T=1$ collective pairs and then into $T=0$ quartets represents the distinctive feature of these eigenstates. This work highlights, for the first time on the grounds of the analytic expression of its eigenstates, the key role played by the isovector pairing force in the phenomenon of nuclear quarteting.

description: A circularly polarized laser pulse can induce persistent intra-molecular currents by either exciting or ionizing molecules. These two cases are identified as electron currents and hole currents, respectively, and up to now they have been studied only separately. We report \textit{ab initio} time-dependent density-functional theory (TDDFT) simulations of currents during resonance-enhanced two-photon ionization of benzene, which reveal for the first time that both electron and hole currents can be present simultaneously. By adjusting the intensity of the laser pulse, the balance between the two types of current can be controlled, and the overall sign of the current can be switched. We provide a physical explanation for the effect in terms of complex molecular orbitals which is consistent with the TDDFT simulations.

description: This paper firstly summed up institutional change of land circulation after the foundation of new China, analyzed main characteristics and internal drawbacks of government-oriented land circulation, discussed the governance cost of local government-oriented land circulation, and evaluated the governance performance on the basis of the transaction cost theory. Results show that local government-oriented land circulation is a resource allocation mode for maximizing benefits of an organization, and its microscopic functions and values are mainly encouragement and restriction, while its macroscopic functions are comprehensive administration of results of state policies. Finally, it put forward policy suggestions for improving local government-oriented land circulation: cultivating diversified rural land circulation modes and regulating acts of local officials; stressing that building harmonious land circulation mechanism is the responsibility of central government; setting up recognition mechanism of the public to local government.
Constraining Fundamental Physics with the Event Horizon Telescope

description: We show how Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) observations of the supermassive object at the center of M87 can constrain deviations from General Relativity (GR) in a relatively model-independent way. We focus on the class of theories whose deviations from GR modify black holes into alternative compact objects whose properties approach those of an ordinary black hole sufficiently far from the would-be event horizon. We examine this class for two reasons: ($i$) they tend to reproduce black-hole expectations for astrophysical accretion disks (and so do not undermine the evidence linking black holes to active galactic nuclei); ($ii$) they lend themselves to a robust effective-field-theory treatment that expands in powers of $\ell/r$, where $\ell$ is the fundamental length scale that sets the distance over which deviations from GR are significant and $r$ is a measure of distance from the would-be horizon. At leading order the observational impact of these types of theories arise as modifications to the transmission and reflection coefficients of modes as they approach the horizon. We show how EHT observations can constrain this reflection coefficient, assuming only that the deviations from GR are small enough to be treated perturbatively. Our preliminary analysis indicates that such reflection coefficients can already be constrained to be less than of order 10\% (corresponding to $\ell \lesssim 100 μm$), and so can rule out some benchmark cases used when seeking black-hole echoes. The precise bounds depend on the black hole spin, as well as on detailed properties of the reflection coefficient (such as its dependence on angular direction).

description: Nickel (ii) (Ni2+) is considered as one of the necessary trace elements in the process of Anammox culture, but it may have toxic effects at high concentration. This study explored the long-term influence of Ni2+ on the denitrification efficiency of Anammox bioreactors. The results showed that when the concentration of Ni2+ was 0.5 mg/L, the bioreactor had the highest denitrification efficiency, while the removal efficiency of ammonia nitrogen and nitrite nitrogen gradually decreased at concentrations higher than 2 mg/L, and the removal rates of ammonia nitrogen and nitrite nitrogen were 26% and 39.81% at the end of the experiment, respectively. The NRR was decreased from 7.47 kg N /m3·d to 3.28 kg N /m3·d during the whole process. The highest concentration of microbial dehydrogenase was attained in about 40 days; in the meantime, its ability to consume organic matter was also maximized. The sludge morphology was changed from granular cluster to loose flocculant with a small number of spherical and filamentous bacteria and bacilli distributed on the surface. At the end of the experiment, both species richness and community diversity were reduced, and the proportion of the dominant bacteria Candidatus Kuenenia was also decreased from 59.89% to 36.72%.

description: We present predictions and postdictions for a wide variety of hard jet-substructure observables using a multistage model within the JETSCAPE framework. The details of the multistage model and the various parameter choices are described in [A. Kumar et al., arXiv:2204.01163]. A novel feature of this model is the presence of two stages of jet modification: a high virtuality phase [modeled using the modular all twist transverse-scattering elastic-drag and radiation model (MATTER)], where modified coherence effects diminish medium-induced radiation, and a lower virtuality phase [modeled using the linear Boltzmann transport model (LBT)], where parton splits are fully resolved by the medium as they endure multiple scattering induced energy loss. Energy-loss calculations are carried out on event-by-event viscous fluid dynamic backgrounds constrained by experimental data. The uniform and consistent descriptions of multiple experimental observables demonstrate the essential role of modified coherence effects and the multistage modeling of jet evolution. Using the best choice of parameters from [A. Kumar et al., arXiv:2204.01163], and with no further tuning, we present calculations for the medium modified jet fragmentation function, the groomed jet momentum fraction $z_g$ and angular separation $r_g$ distributions, as well as the nuclear modification factor of groomed jets. These calculations provide accurate descriptions of published data from experiments at the Large Hadron Collider. Furthermore, we provide predictions from the multistage model for future measurements at the BNL Relativistic Heavy Ion Collider.

description: It was found that bisphenol F (BPF) could be anaerobically transformed to 4,4-dihydroxybenzophenone using nitrate as an electron acceptor by Pseudomonas sp. LS. However, BPF removal was a slow process under anaerobic conditions. In the present study, effects of graphene oxide (GO) and graphene on the anaerobic transformation of BPF were studied in detail. Results showed that GO (2-10 mg/L) and graphene (2-20 mg/L) could increase anaerobic biotransformation rate of BPF. For GO-mediated system, GO was partially reduced, and then the reduced GO (rGO) as an electron mediator increased biotransformation rate of BPF. Further analysis showed that the promoting effect of 10 mg/L GO was over 1.5-fold higher compared with that of 10 mg/L graphene. BPF could be transformed using GO as an electron acceptor. GO and graphene were also used as nutrient-scaffolds to promote cell growth via adsorbing proteins. Moreover, GO was a better cell growth promoter than graphene. These studies indicated that GO played more roles and exhibited better accelerating effect on anaerobic removal of BPF compared with graphene.

description: In order to support near-term applications of quantum computing, a new compute paradigm has emerged--the quantum-classical cloud--in which quantum computers (QPUs) work in tandem with classical computers (CPUs) via a shared cloud infrastructure. In this work, we enumerate the architectural requirements of a quantum-classical cloud platform, and present a framework for benchmarking its runtime performance. In addition, we walk through two platform-level enhancements, parametric compilation and active qubit reset, that specifically optimize a quantum-classical architecture to support variational hybrid algorithms (VHAs), the most promising applications of near-term quantum hardware. Finally, we show that integrating these two features into the Rigetti Quantum Cloud Services (QCS) platform results in considerable improvements to the latencies that govern algorithm runtime.

description: We report on the fabrication of highly transparent superconductor/normal metal/two-dimensional electron gas junctions formed by a superconducting NbN electrode, a thin (10nm) Au interlayer, and a two-dimensional electron gas in a InGaAs/InP heterostructure. High junction transparency has been achieved by exploiting of a newly developed process of Au/NbN evaporation and rapid annealing at 400C. This allowed us to observe for the first time a decrease in the differential resistance with pronounced double-dip structure within the superconducting energy gap in superconductor-2DEG proximity systems. The effect of a magnetic field perpendicular to the plane of the 2DEG on the differential resistance of the interface was studied. It has been found that the reduced subgap resistance remains in high magnetic fields. Zero-field data are analyzed within the previously established quasiclassical model for the proximity effect.

description: The objective of the study was to assess the effect of demographics, towards crop choice and farming practices among the 90 farmers participating in the High Value crop production programme in O.R. Tambo district municipality in the Eastern Cape province and how this affected the level of farm income generated. Semi-structured questionnaire was used to carry out field interviews. Descriptive statistics and multivariate regression analysis were employed for data analyses. The results of multivariate regression analyses shows that as a farmer�s age increased by a year, their chances of growing cabbages increased by 1.70%. As the plot size increased by a hectare, the chances of farmers growing cabbages decreased by 6.12%; their chance of growing maize decreased by 1.71%, but their chance of growing potatoes increased by 9.36%. These results were statistically significant at 10% level of significance. Farmers who hired extra labour earned 168% more income than those who did not. High farm-income was statistically significantly associated with increase in plot size, gender of the farmer (males performing better than women), and fertilizer application. Implementing policies that would result in equal distribution of land between men and women and educating women on how to optimally exploit limited resources is necessary. Key words: Demographics, High Value Crops, crop choice, plot size, level of farm income
The detailed mechanism of the eta production in pp scattering up to the Tlab = 4.5 GeV

description: Contrary to very early beliefs, the experimental cross section data for the eta production in proton-proton scattering are well described if pi and only eta meson exchange diagrams are used to calculate the Born term. The inclusion of initial and final state interactions is done in the factorization approximation by using the inverse square of the Jost function. The two body Jost functions are obtained from the S matrices in the low energy effective range approximation. The danger of double counting in the p-eta final state interaction is discussed. It is shown that higher partial waves in meson-nucleon amplitudes do not contribute significantly bellow excess energy of Q=100 MeV. Known difficulties of reducing the multi resonance model to a single resonance one are illustrated.

description: The gross domestic product (GDP) is the most widely used indicator in macroeconomics and the main tool for measuring a country's economic output. Due to the diversity and complexity of the world economy, a wide range of models have been used, but there are challenges in making decadal GDP forecasts given unexpected changes such as emergence of catastrophic world events including pandemics and wars. Deep learning models are well suited for modelling temporal sequences and time series forecasting. In this paper, we develop a deep learning framework to forecast the GDP growth rate of the world economy over a decade. We use the Penn World Table as the data source featuring 13 countries prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, such as Australia, China, India, and the United States. We present a recursive deep learning framework to predict the GDP growth rate in the next ten years. We test prominent deep learning models and compare their results with traditional econometric models for selected developed and developing countries. Our decadal forecasts reveal that that most of the developed countries would experience economic growth slowdown, stagnation and even recession within five years (2020-2024). Furthermore, our model forecasts show that only China, France, and India would experience stable GDP growth.

description: This study revisits the debate over whether a bias exists in new crop December corn and November soybean futures and option prices. Some evidence of bias is found in December corn futures and December corn puts, but the evidence is substantially muted when transaction costs are included. The study also examines if information contained in the widely-followed World Agriculture Supply and Demand Reports (WASDE) issued by the U.S. Department of Agriculture as well as the implied volatility from new crop corn and soybean options are incorporated efficiently into December corn and November soybean futures prices. Previous studies have examined the immediate incorporation of public information into futures prices. This study examines whether public information is incorporated efficiently from the perspective of the change in price between the first non-limit close following the release of a WASDE report and the first contract delivery day. The May WASDE is the first release of the calendar year to include estimates of the forthcoming new crop year’s supply and demand. For both the December corn and November soybean regressions, the intercept, change in stocks-to-use ratio between the current and new crop year reported in the May WASDE, and option market implied volatility are significantly different than zero at the 95 percent confidence level. The current crop year’s stocks-to-use ratio is not statistically significant. These results held in general for both the May and June WASDE releases, although some sensitivity occurred when the May future rather than as a direct confrontation to the theory of market efficiency.

description: Time series analysis shows that local soybean basis levels have some tendency to follow or be determined by the basis levels at export locations (Toledo and U.S. Gulf). Processing centers tend to show the most independence in basis discovery. Spatial modeling shows that each local basis produces a "spillover" and impacts neighboring basis levels. The spatial linkages are greatest during the spring and tend to be the lowest during fall. The results suggest that soybean basis discovery may be concentrated at export locations within the U.S. marketing system. Moreover, these dominant-satellite relationships are strongest during the spring season. Market practitioners may utilize this information when forming expectations for basis levels during the marketing year.

description: With the rapid development of wearable cameras, a massive collection of egocentric video for first-person visual perception becomes available. Using egocentric videos to predict first-person activity faces many challenges, including limited field of view, occlusions, and unstable motions. Observing that sensor data from wearable devices facilitates human activity recognition, multi-modal activity recognition is attracting increasing attention. However, the deficiency of related dataset hinders the development of multi-modal deep learning for egocentric activity recognition. Nowadays, deep learning in real world has led to a focus on continual learning that often suffers from catastrophic forgetting. But the catastrophic forgetting problem for egocentric activity recognition, especially in the context of multiple modalities, remains unexplored due to unavailability of dataset. In order to assist this research, we present a multi-modal egocentric activity dataset for continual learning named UESTC-MMEA-CL, which is collected by self-developed glasses integrating a first-person camera and wearable sensors. It contains synchronized data of videos, accelerometers, and gyroscopes, for 32 types of daily activities, performed by 10 participants. Its class types and scale are compared with other publicly available datasets. The statistical analysis of the sensor data is given to show the auxiliary effects for different behaviors. And results of egocentric activity recognition are reported when using separately, and jointly, three modalities: RGB, acceleration, and gyroscope, on a base network architecture. To explore the catastrophic forgetting in continual learning tasks, four baseline methods are extensively evaluated with different multi-modal combinations. We hope the UESTC-MMEA-CL can promote future studies on continual learning for first-person activity recognition in wearable applications.

description: This study reviews articles published in the Journal of Agricultural Economics from 1994 to 1998 which used regression analysis to determine agricultural economists' effectiveness in reporting and conveying research procedures and results. Based on the authors experiences of surveying articles for this study, we have several suggestions on how to better express reporting of results and how to better separate statistical from economic significance. First, clearly define the dependent variable - preferably in the results table. Second, when applicable, report parameter estimates in an interpretable form either in the table or in a subsequent table. Third, when applicable, report summary statistics. Fourth, report degrees of freedom conspicuously in the results table. Fifth, do not hesitate to report that statistically insignificant variables have been dropped. Lastly, weigh economic importance aside from statistical significance - use simulation to express economic significance.

description: Pricing and technological innovation are discussed within the context of the beef industry’s value-based marketing initiative. Cash and contract marketing practices for fed cattle are addressed with respect to slaughter volume and pricing methods (live, dressed, and grid). A methodology for estimating grid market share of weekly slaughter volume, based on USDA market reports (2004–2009), is introduced. Weekly grid market shares for the cash and contract markets are derived. Summary statistics indicate that grid pricing has become an important pricing mechanism, but has not surpassed average pricing with respect to slaughter volume market share.
