description: We observed the 1998 November superoutburst of WX Cet, a dwarf nova originally proposed as a WZ Sge-like system. The observation established that WX Cet is an SU UMa-type dwarf nova with a mean superhump period of 0.05949(1) d, which is 2.1% longer than the reported orbital period. The lack of early superhumps at the earliest stage of the superoutburst, the rapid development of usual superhumps, and the possible rapid decay of late superhumps seem to support that WX Cet is a fairly normal large-amplitude SU UMa-type dwarf nova, rather than a WZ Sge-type dwarf nova with a number of peculiarities. However, a period increase of superhumps at a rate dot(P)/P = (+8.5+/-1.0) x 10^-5 was observed, which is one of the largest dot(P)/P ever observed in SU UMa-type dwarf novae. A linear decline of light, with a rate of 0.10 mag/d, was observed in the post-superoutburst stage. This may be an exemplification of the decay of the viscosity in the accretion disk after the termination of a superoutburst, mechanism of which is proposed to explain a variety of post-superoutburst phenomena in some SU UMa-type dwarf novae.

description: In this paper, we study how the boundary of hog producer organizations affects the economic performance of their members. From a French database providing economic and technical information on 886 hog farms, we estimate a system of equations including demand for input and output supply in order to evaluate marginal costs and margins at farm level. We show that belonging to a cooperative that develops financial links upstream and downstream allows farmers to reach, on average, lower marginal costs higher margins. In addition, even if the marketing cooperatives or bargaining associations allow their members to enjoy higher hog price than the average price, the farmers belonging to this type of producer organizations do not exhibit enough cost economies to reach large margins.

description: Energy dissipation rates are an important characteristic of turbulence; however, their magnitude in observational profiles can be incorrectly determined owing to their irregular appearance during vertical evolution. By analysing the data obtained from oceanic turbulence measurements, we demonstrate that the vertical sequences of energy dissipation rates exhibit a scaling property. Utilising this property, we propose a method to estimate the population mean for a profile. For scaling in the observed profiles, we demonstrate that our data exhibit a statistical property consistent with that exhibited by the universal multifractal model. Meanwhile, the population mean and its uncertainty can be estimated by inverting the probability distribution obtained by Monte Carlo simulations of a cascade model; to this end, observational constraints from several moments are imposed over each vertical sequence. This approach enables us to determine, to some extent, whether a profile shows an occasionally large mean or whether the population mean itself is large. Thus, it will contribute to the refinement of the regional estimation of the ocean energy budget, where only a small amount of turbulence observation data is available.

description: An interesting feature of the finite-dimensional real spectral triple (A,H,D,J) of the Standard Model is that it satisfies a ``second-order'' condition: conjugation by J maps the Clifford algebra Cl_D(A) into its commutant, which in fact is isomorphic to the Clifford algebra itself (H is a self-Morita equivalence Cl_D(A)-bimodule). This resembles a property of the canonical spectral triple of a closed oriented Riemannian manifold: there is a dense subspace of H which is a self-Morita equivalence Cl_D(A)-bimodule. In this paper we argue that on manifolds, in order for the self-Morita equivalence to be implemented by a reality operator J, one has to introduce a ``twist'' and weaken one of the axioms of real spectral triples. We then investigate how the above mentioned conditions behave under products of spectral triples.

description: Using the EGRET data and an improved point source analysis, including an energy dependent point spread function and an unbinned maximum likelihood technique, we have been able to place considerably lower limits on the gamma ray flux from the galactic center region. We also test this method on known sources, the Crab and Vela pulsars. In both cases, we find that our method improves the angular precision of EGRET data over the 3EG catalog. This new limit on gamma rays from the galactic center can be used to test models of annihilating supersymmetric dark matter and galactic halo profiles. We find that the present EGRET data can limit many supersymmetric models if the density of the galactic dark matter halo is cuspy or spiked toward the galactic center. We also discuss the ability of GLAST to test these models.

description: This study aims to investigate the impacts of rainfall variability on migration, off-farm activities and transfers in rural Ethiopia. We develop a theoretical model in which migration, (on-farm, off-farm and urban) labor supplies and transfers are jointly decided from household utility maximization. Several hypotheses are developed from the model about the impact of rainfall variability on these decisions. These hypotheses are tested against a panel dataset we compile by matching household data with village-level historical rainfall data. We find that the share of out-migrated household members decreases with mean rainfall level and increases with the standard deviation of rainfall in main (Kiremt) growing seasons of the five years prior to the survey. Per capital off-farm labor supply and participation in public transfer programs decreases with mean rainfall level in the Kiremt season of the year prior to the survey, and increases with the standard deviation of rainfall in the Kiremt seasons of the five years prior to the survey. The level and standard deviation of rainfall may have no effect on the amount of transfers that households receive from former household members and the informal social safety nets (ISSN).

Excitonic states, which can be produced ultrafastly with optical operation, are used as auxiliary states in the realization of quantum gates. We show how properly tailored ultrafast laser pulses and Pauli-blocking effects, can be used to achieve a universal encoded quantum computing.

description: This paper uses household survey data from Benin to evaluate how grain quality affects maize prices in rural markets of sub-Saharan Africa. Stated preference methods reveal that a 10% increase in insect damage results in a 9% maize price discount. However, revealed preference results from farmers involved in past market transactions indicate that this discount is only 3 %. Evidence also suggests that this discount is larger in periods of maize abundance than in the lean periods when maize is scarce. Our results contribute to explain why many smallholder farmers sell maize at harvest and do not invest in storage technology that would improve grain quality later in the season.

We model the signal including the non-linear biasing expansion using a generalized halo model approach. We consider the importance of foreground filtering scale and of the foreground wedge. We find that the current generation intensity mapping experiments like CHIME do not posses sufficient sensitivity to be competitive with the existing limits. On the other hand, upcoming experiments like HIRAX can improve the current constraints and the proposed PUMA experiment can substantially improve them, reaching sensitivities below $σ(f_{\rm NL})<5$ for equilateral and orthogonal configurations and $σ( f_{\rm NL}) < 1$ for the local shape if good foreground control is achieved.

description: We report on new results from simultaneous, dual frequency, single pulse observation of PSR B0329+54 using the Giant Metrewave Radio Telescope. We find that the longitude separation of subpulses at two different frequencies (238 and 612 MHz) is less than that for the corresponding components in the average profile. A similar behaviour has been noticed before in a number of pulsars. We argue that subpulses are emitted within narrow flux tubes of the dipolar field lines and that the mean pulsar beam has a conal structure. In such a model the longitudes of profile components are determined by the intersection of the line of sight trajectory with subpulse-associated emission beams. Thus, we show that the difference in the frequency dependence of subpulse and profile component longitudes is a natural property of the conal model of pulsar emission beam. We support our conclusions by numerical modelling of pulsar emission, using the known parameters for this pulsar, which produce results that agree very well with our dual frequency observations.

description: Aims. We investigate the transfer of energy between a standing kink mode and azimuthal Alfven waves within an expanding flux tube. We consider the process of resonant absorption in a loop with a non-uniform Alfven frequency profile but in the absence of a radial density gradient. Methods. Using the MHD code, Lare3d, we model an oscillating magnetic flux tube that expands radially with height. An initially straight loop structure with a magnetic field enhancement is relaxed towards a force-free state before a standing kink mode is introduced. Results. We demonstrate that the transverse gradient in Alfven frequency required for the existence of resonant field lines can be associated with the expansion of a high field-strength flux tube from concentrated flux patches. This allows for the conversion of energy between wave modes even in the absence of the density profile typically assumed in wave heating models. As with standing modes in straight flux tubes, small scales are dominated by the vorticity at the loop apex and by currents at the foot points. The azimuthal wave exhibits the structure of the expanded flux tube and is therefore associated with smaller length scales close to the foot points of the flux tube. Conclusions. Resonant absorption can proceed throughout the corona, even in the absence of dense loop structures. The flux tube and MHD waves considered are difficult to observe and our model highlights how estimating hidden wave power within the solar atmosphere can be problematic. We highlight that, for standing modes, the global properties of field lines are important for resonant absorption and coronal conditions at a single altitude will not fully determine the nature of MHD resonances. We provide a new model in partial response to the criticism that wave heating models cannot self-consistently generate or sustain the density profile upon which they typically rely.

description: Although there are estimates of the number of undocumented migrant families resident in the UK,there are currently no estimates at local authority level. As a result, undocumented migrant families areoften invisible in local discussions of child poverty and safeguarding, can be excluded from servicesto safeguard their welfare, and face the risk of destitution. This paper explores the Delphi method as away of using expert consensus to estimate numbers of undocumented migrant families. Fieldwork wascompleted in Birmingham, West Midlands, but uses a methodology transferrable to other areas. A medianestimate of 1,500 families, containing 1,900 children was reached. The paper concludes with a discussionof the methodological difficulties encountered, and recommendations for use of the method in the future.

In the suggested modification of the secret sharing scheme, only one master key for each user is required that is achieved by linearly enlarging public parameters in the access formula. We then use this scheme for designing an attribute-based encryption protocol related to some access structure in terms of attributes. We demonstrate that the universe of possible attributes does not affect the resulting efficiency of the scheme. The security proofs for both constructions are provided.

description: Comparing reproductive tract morphology between closely-related species may reveal mechanisms and processes leading to reproductive isolation and cladogenesis. Differences in external morphology are often inconspicuous between closely-related Neotropical species, and tissue samples for DNA sequencing are usually scarce for fossorial organisms such as amphisbaenians. Therefore, comparing characters of the reproductive tract between closely related amphisbaenians may be a viable alternative to understand processes by which evolutionary lineages have diverged morphologically from common ancestors. In this study we used multivariate ordination to compare reproductive tract morphology between two closely-related Amphisbaenidae species (Amphisbaena anaemariae and A. silvestrii), which are morphologically similar, and phylogenetically closely related. We tested the hypothesis that interspecific divergence in the reproductive tract may explain mechanisms and processes of reproductive divergence leading to evolutionary divergence. Our results suggest that divergence between two closely related Amphisbaenidae species may be linked with reproductive isolation caused by morphological differences in the reproductive tract. However, the levels of divergence detected varied between sexes and sides of the body on which the variables were measured, with vas deferens length, testis length and diameter and gonad-cloaca length as the determining variables differencing species. Although our findings must be validated by DNA-based analysis, this study provides insights into evolutionary processes based on reproductive divergence mechanisms in organisms for which sampling is hindered by fossoriality.

description: We calculate the contributions of the Kaluza-Klein (KK) modes to the K_L-K_S mass difference ΔM_K, the parameter ε_K, the B^0_{d,s}-\bar B^0_{d,s} mixing mass differences ΔM_{d,s} and rare decays K^+\to π^+ν\barν, K_L\to π^0ν\barν, K_L\toμ\barμ, B\to X_{s,d}ν\barνand B_{s,d}\toμ\barμin the Appelquist, Cheng and Dobrescu (ACD) model with one universal extra dimension. For the compactification scale 1/R= 200 GeV the KK effects in these processes are governed by a 17% enhancement of the ΔF=2 box diagram function S(x_t,1/R) and by a 37% enhancement of the Z^0 penguin diagram function C(x_t/1/R) relative to their Standard Model (SM) values. This implies the suppressions of \vtd by 8%, of \barηby 11% and of the angle γin the unitarity triangle by 10^\circ. ΔM_s is increased by 17%. ΔM_K is essentially uneffected. All branching ratios considered in this paper are increased with a hierarchical structure of enhancements: K^+\to π^+ν\barν(16%), K_L\to π^0ν\barν(17%), B\to X_{d}ν\barν(22%), (K_L\toμ\barμ)_{\rm SD} (38%), B\to X_{s}ν\barν(44%), B_{d}\toμ\barμ(46%) and B_{s}\toμ\barμ(72%). For 1/R= 250 (300) GeV all these effects are decreased roughly by a factor of 1.5 (2.0). We give the relevant Feynman rules for the five dimensional ACD model. We also emphasize that a consistent calculation of branching ratios has to take into account the modifications in the values of the CKM parameters. As a byproduct we confirm the dominant \ord (g_2 G_F m_t^4 R^2) correction from the KK modes to the $Z^0 b\bar b$ vertex calculated recently in the large m_t limit.

description: We study the six-dimensional ${\cal N}=(1,0)$ and ${\cal N}=(1,1)$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills (SYM) theories in the component formulation. The one-loop divergencies of effective action are calculated. The leading one-loop low-energy contributions to bosonic sector of effective action are found. It is explicitly demonstrated that the contribution to effective potential for the constant background scalar fields are absent in the ${\cal N}=(1,1)$ SYM theory.

description: A significant part of the literature on innovative practice in medicine relates to seizing opportunities and curbing harms for patients in desperate situations. Unfortunately, the term innovation has multiple meanings and a rich rhetorical flourish that adds confusion and misunderstanding to an already difficult debate. This paper aims to enhance the current definition of innovative practice for medicine. First, we replace the term innovation with the more literal of new non-validated practice. To identify this meaning, we analyse the traditional research ethics’ distinction between research, validated practice, and innovation in the Belmont Report. Second, we propose the following explicit definition of new non-validated practice: the first or recent use of diagnostic, therapeutic or preventive interventions that introduce a significant change, with an insufficient level of evidence of safety or efficacy for regular healthcare, and with the main aim to benefit individual patients. This definition is a promising conceptual tool to inform empirical research, ethicists, and the harmonization of its regulation and legislation (e.g. right-to-try laws).

description: The majority of the world’s 3,759 commercial airports handle under 5 million passengers a year, identifying them as small. These small airports rarely employ practices to address their environmental externalities. Small airports have extensive and significant negative impacts on the environment which not only affect human and environmental health but also limit their own future growth and development opportunities. Resultantly, there is a compelling need to drive small airport engagement with environmental practices (EPs).The aim of this thesis is to investigate small airport engagement with environmental practices (EPs) to provide recommendations to encourage EP adoption. By understanding this engagement, recommendations can be made to improve future EP uptake. To meet this aim, this thesis employs an online survey and in-depth semi-structured interviews with airport managers and environmental officers (guided by the Technology-Organisation-Environment (TOE) framework) to explore, detail and subsequently explain environmental behaviours and EP engagement at small airports.The findings of the online survey reveal the EPs most commonly adopted by small airports and also note that airport ownership structures appear to affect EP engagement. Consumer pressure, regulatory intervention, and airport size are found to positively affect the adoption of EPs, whereas EP complexity and resource constraints are identified as barriers to adoption. Building on these descriptive findings, the interview results explain further how airport ownership can affect EP engagement, and also show that although cost can be an issue, human resource availability and local site-specific factors often pose the biggest challenges to EP adoption for small airports. The research makes both empirical and theoretical contributions to existing literature on the topic of small airport EP engagement, identifying patterns and behaviours unique to the small airport context. In establishing present small airport EP engagement and identifying the drivers and barriers affecting this, this thesis is able to make recommendations for policy and practice going forward, seeking to minimise the barriers and maximise the drivers. In doing so, future small airport EP engagement can be effectively encouraged and environmental performance improved.
Scaling of Decoherence Effects in Quantum Computers

description: The scaling of decoherence rates with the number of q-bits is studied for a simple quantum computer model. Two state q-bits are localised around well-separated positions via trapping potentials, but vibrational motion of q-bits centre of mass motion occurs. Coherent one and two q-bit gating processes are controlled by external classical fields and facilitated by a high Q cavity mode. Decoherence due to q-bit and cavity mode coupling to a bath of spontaneous emission modes, cavity decay modes and to the vibrational modes is treated. A non-Markovian treatment of the short time behaviour of the fidelity is presented, enabling time scales for decoherence to be determined, together with their dependence on q-bit number for the case where the q-bit/cavity mode system is in a pure state and the baths are in thermal states.

description: We aimed to investigate the association of fish consumption with the risk of coronary heart disease (CHD), stroke and all-cause mortality in patients with type 2 diabetes (T2D). We systematically searched PubMed and Scopus from inception till June 2019. We included prospective cohort studies assessing the relation of fish intake with the risk of CHD, stroke and mortality in patients with T2D. Study-specific results were pooled with the use of a random-effects model. Nine prospective cohort studies with 57,394 diabetic patients were identified. The relative risks for the highest compared with the lowest category of fish consumption were 0.86 (95% CI 0.76, 0.96; I2 = 50%, n = 8) for all-cause mortality, and 0.61 (95% CI 0.29, 0.93; I2 = 68%, n = 3) for CHD. There was a monotonic inverse association, with a nadir at fish consumption of approximately 2–3 servings/week, in both analyses. A nonsignificant inverse association was found for stroke. In the analysis of all-cause mortality, a nonsignificant inverse association was found in studies that controlled for energy intake, suggesting that the observed inverse association was not an addition effect, but may be due to substituting other foods such as red and processed meat with fish.

description: Contagion, broadly construed, refers to anything that can spread infectiously from peer to peer. Examples include communicable diseases, rumors, misinformation, ideas, innovations, bank failures, and electrical blackouts. Sometimes, as in the 1918 Spanish flu epidemic, a contagion mutates at some point as it spreads through a network. Here, using a simple susceptible-infected (SI) model of contagion, we explore the downstream impact of a single mutation event. Assuming that this mutation occurs at a random node in the contact network, we calculate the distribution of the number of "descendants," $d$, downstream from the initial "Patient Zero" mutant. We find that the tail of the distribution decays as $d^{-2}$ for complete graphs, random graphs, small-world networks, networks with block-like structure, and other infinite-dimensional networks. This prediction agrees with the observed statistics of memes propagating and mutating on Facebook, and is expected to hold for other effectively infinite-dimensional networks, such as the global human contact network. In a wider context, our approach suggests a possible starting point for a mesoscopic theory of contagion. Such a theory would focus on the paths traced by a spreading contagion, thereby furnishing an intermediate level of description between that of individual nodes and the total infected population. We anticipate that contagion pathways will hold valuable lessons, given their role as the conduits through which single mutations, innovations, or failures can sweep through a network as a whole.

description: Using Totaro-Bloch-Kriz's linear fractional cycles Gangl and Muller-Stach recently prove the 5-term relations for the dilogarithm in Bloch's higher Chow group CH^2(F,3) and the Kummer-Spence relations in some group G(F) over an arbitrary field F where G(F) is isomorphic to CH^3(F,5) up to torsions under the Beilinson-Soule vanishing conjecture that CH^2(F,n)=0 for n>3. In this paper we show that Goncharov's 22-term relations for the trilogarithm also hold in G(F).
