description: We present a review of the topics of X-ray stellar tidal disruption events (TDEs) and changing-look active galactic nuclei (AGN). Stars approaching a supermassive black hole (SMBH) can be tidally disrupted and accreted. TDEs were first discovered in the X-ray regime and appear as luminous, giant-amplitude flares from inactive galaxies. The early X-ray observations with ROSAT also established the extreme X-ray spectral softness of these events with temperatures of order 50-100 eV that continues to be seen in the majority of more recently identified events. While the majority of X-ray TDEs has been identified from {\it inactive} galaxies and some showed the highest amplitudes of variability recorded from galaxy cores (amplitudes exceeding factors of 1000--6000), a small fraction of {\it active} galactic nuclei (AGN) has been found to be highly variable as well. In AGN, this so-called changing-look phenomenon often comes with a strong change in the optical broad emission lines, leading to Seyfert-type changes between class 1 and class 2. These two forms of activity represent the extremes of variability among active and quiescent galaxies, and have opened up a new window on understanding accretion physics under extreme conditions. Finally, we introduce the term ``frozen-look AGN'' to describe systems that show constant line emission despite strong/dramatic changes in the observed ionizing continuum. These systems are best explained by strong changes of absorption along our line-of-sight.

description: We discuss some experimental and theoretical results on single spin asymmetries (SSA) in high energy lepton-hadron and hadron-hadron reactions. In particular, recent results on meson SSA obtained by HERMES are considered in detail. We also discuss the SSA results obtained recently by COMPASS, as well as those from BRAHMS, PHENIX and STAR. Special attention is paid to a possible nonperturbative QCD mechanism that might be responsible for the observed meson SSA. This mechanism originates from the spin-flip quark-gluon chromomagnetic interaction induced by the complex topological structure of the QCD vacuum. We argue that in semi-inclusive deep-inelastic scattering a large SSA is expected not only for mesons but also for baryons due to strong nonperturbative final state interactions between $ud$-diquark and $u$-quark in the fragmenting proton.

description: The spin readout of an ensemble of nitrogen-vacancy (NV) centers in diamond can be realized by a photoconductive detection that is a complementary method to the optical detection of the NV electron spin magnetic resonance. Here, we implement the photoconductive detection through graphitic planar electrodes that collect the photocurrent. Graphitic electrodes are patterned using a xenon Focused-Ion Beam on an Optical-Grade quality diamond crystal containing a nitrogen concentration of ~1 ppm and a NV concentration of a few ppb. Resistance and current-voltage characteristics of the NV-doped diamond junction are investigated tuning the 532 nm pump beam intensity. The junction has an ohmic behavior and under a strong bias field, we observe velocity saturation of the optically-induced carriers in the diamond junction. We perform the photoconductive detection in continuous-wave regime of the magnetic resonance of the NV centers ensemble for a magnetic field applied along the <100> and the <111> direction with a magnitude above 100 mT. This technique enables the realization of all-carbon diamond quantum sensors integrating graphitic microstructures for the electrical readout.

title: The Economic Value of Forage for Livestock on Public and Private Ranges in Utah
Creators: name: Topham, Mardell D.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1966

description: The United States Government controls about 359 million acres of land in the 11 Western States. This vast acreage produces recreation for vacationers, timber for lumbermen, water for city and rural consumption, forage for livestock and wildlife, and minerals for miners. In many cases, the users of these products are competing and are clamoring for a large share of this land. Consequently, land use is continually changing. Since 1941, the amount of timber cut has tripled, recreation has doubled, watersheds now yield a better quality of water (Clawson, 1957), forage for wildlife has increased but forage for livestock use has decreased.
The public agencies (especially the U.S. Forest Service and the Bureau of Land Management) that administer this federally controlled land are vitally concerned about being able to effectively and fairly allocate its use. In order that decisions may be made in the light of economic criteria, these agencies are promoting studies in the area of each of the land uses listed above. In cases where society demands other than the greatest economic good, the costs of satisfying the "right" use needs to be determined.
Cosmology with minimal length uncertainty relations

description: We study the effects of the existence of a minimal observable length in the phase space of classical and quantum de Sitter (dS) and Anti de Sitter (AdS) cosmology. Since this length has been suggested in quantum gravity and string theory, its effects in the early universe might be expected. Adopting the existence of such a minimum length results in the Generalized Uncertainty Principle (GUP), which is a deformed Heisenberg algebra between minisuperspace variables and their momenta operators. We extend these deformed commutating relations to the corresponding deformed Poisson algebra in the classical limit. Using the resulting Poisson and Heisenberg relations, we then construct the classical and quantum cosmology of dS and Ads models in a canonical framework. We show that in classical dS cosmology this effect yields an inflationary universe in which the rate of expansion is larger than the usual dS universe. Also, for the AdS model it is shown that GUP might change the oscillatory nature of the corresponding cosmology. We also study the effects of GUP in quantized models through approximate analytical solutions of the Wheeler-DeWitt (WD) equation, in the limit of small scale factor for the universe, and compare the results with the ordinary quantum cosmology in each case.

title: Behavior Patterns of the Adult Alfalfa Weevil in Cache Valley, Utah
Creators: name: Southwick, J. Wanless
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1966

description: The alfalfa weevil, Hypera postica (Gyllenhal), was first found in the United States in Salt Lake City, Utah, during 1904 (Titus, 1910b). It spread form this point of original introduction and partially infested Cache Valley by 1912 (Titus, 1913).
The alfalfa weevil has become one of the more important insect problems currently affecting American agriculture. Recently, this problem has attracted national attention because of the development of resistance to insecticides by the alfalfa weevil, the outlawing of certain pesticides for use on forage crops and the rapid spread of the alfalfa weevil to new areas.
With this increased attention, many discrepancies have appeared in different reports of the alfalfa weevil's biology. The results of studies in the eastern United States often do not agree with those of studies which were made in Utah and vicinity during the early part of this century. In order to investigate the discrepancies or differences, and to determine the behavior patterns of the alfalfa weevil in Cache Valley, this study was undertaken. It was conducted from June, 1965 to August, 1966.
The main topics investigated were the adult alfalfa weevil's flight activities, reproduction, daily field activities, seasonal history including diapause, and respiration under controlled conditions.

title: A Study of the Extent to Which Further Consolidation is Feasible and Desirable within Selected County School Districts in Utah
Creators: name: Talbot, Walter D.
Publisher: name: Utah State University
Year: 1966

description: Under the mandator consolidation act of 1915, the county-unit school district in Utah had its beginning (10). Although, through this consolidation movement, many small school districts were combined into larger ones, the elimination of the small districts did not, necessarily, provide for the elimination of the small schools. Due to several factors including distance, poor communication and transportation facilities, and a strong desire on the part of the people who lived in small communities for a voice in school matters, the consolidation of school attendance areas did not keep pace with school district reorganization.
With the improvement of highways and communication facilities and the rapid rise of the motor vehicle as a means of fast, dependable travel, school boards have considered consolidation of attendance areas as one of the possibilities open to them to improve the quality of education in their districts.

description: Although biological phenomena may be partially described in a general way without the use of mathematics and physics, the experimental results may be more meaningful if they are analyzed on the basis of physical and mathematical laws . The complexity of biological systems has made the application to them of mathematics and physics rather difficult, and only recently has much progress been made . Although it has yet been possible to describe only a few simple biological systems by actual equations, a great deal of qualitative information may be obtained by applying physics and mathematics. Russell (1960, p. 439) said
In principle at least, the properties and processes of living plants may be described by the terminology and laws of physics. Such properties as color, mass, volume, area, viscosity, elasticity, specific heat, and permeability; and such processes as diffusion, reflection, osmosis, heat conduction, fluid flow, absorption, and swelling are examples of physical concepts useful in describing living plants.

title: A Review of Plant Propagation Methods

description: The purpose of this study was to consider how the rooting of cuttings may be affected by such methods and factors as: type of cutting, time of year when cuttings are best taken, differences between individual species, use of chemicals for the treatment of cuttings, rooting media, and the care of cuttings in the propagation beds.
In the past 35 years scientists have done considerable experimenting with the application of organic chemicals on the roots, stems and leaves of various plants. These organic chemicals have come to be known as "plant hormones" or "plant regulators." They have proved to be extremely useful and have affected the plants in rather unusual ways. Growth regulating chemicals are no longer on trial. They now are being used with several kinds of farm crops and ornamental plants.
Hormones or growth regulators are chemical substances, made in one part of an organism and transported to other parts where they produce their effects, and they are effective in very minute amounts. This paper will give the present status of knowledge on the use and effectiveness of growth regulators in plant propagation.

A Structural Model for Octagonal Quasicrystals Derived from Octagonal Symmetry Elements Arising in $β$-Mn Crystallization of a Simple Monatomic Liquid

description: While performing molecular dynamics simulations of a simple monatomic liquid, we observed the crystallization of a material displaying octagonal symmetry in its simulated diffraction pattern. Inspection of the atomic arrangements in the crystallization product reveals large grains of the beta-Mn structure aligned along a common 4-fold axis, with 45 degree rotations between neighboring grains. These 45 degree rotations can be traced to the intercession of a second crystalline structure fused epitaxially to the beta-Mn domain surfaces, whose primitive cell has lattice parameters a = b = c = a_{beta-Mn}, alpha = beta = 90 degrees, and gamma = 45 degrees. This secondary phase adopts a structure which appears to have no known counterpart in the experimental literature, but can be simply derived from the Cr_3Si and Al_3Zr_4 structure types. We used these observations as the basis for an atomistic structural model for octagonal quasicrystals, in which the beta-Mn and the secondary phase structure unit cells serve as square and rhombic tiles (in projection), respectively. Its diffraction pattern down the octagonal axis resembles those experimentally measured. The model is unique in being consistent with high-resolution electron microscopy images showing square and rhombic units with edge-lengths equal to that of the beta-Mn unit cell. Energy minimization of this configuration, using the same pair potential as above, results in an alternative octagonal quasiperiodic structure with the same tiling but a different atomic decoration and diffraction pattern.

description: The paper presents potential impacts of climate change on rainwater tanks outcomes such as water savings, reliability and water savings efficiency under two projected climate change scenarios; RCP4.5 and RCP8.5 utilising a case study using rainfall data from four stations within the city of Brisbane, Australia. Historical rainfall data were collected from the Australian Bureau of Meteorology website for the selected stations. Projected daily rainfall data were collected from Australian government data portal for the same stations within Brisbane. Using an earlier developed daily water balance model, eTank potential annual water savings were calculated for several weather and climate change scenarios with varied roof areas and rainwater demandValues of ‘Seasonality Index (SI)’, a commonly used factor representing rainfall variability within a year, were explored to validate earlier developed relationships between SI and water savings efficiency through rainwater tanks. It is found that in most cases water savings in future periods are expected to decrease and such decrease is not necessarily attributed to the expected decrease in rainfall amounts in future, rather also affected by future reductions in rainwater tank reliability. Linear relationships between potential future water savings and reliabilities for all the stations are found. Relationship between SI and water savings efficiency was established, and it is found that the relationship slightly varies with an earlier developed relationship using historical data. Compared to earlier established relationship, for lower SI values water savings efficiency is expected to become better, while for higher SI values the water savings efficiency is expected to become worse. Also, an increase of roof area from 100 m2 to 200 m2 will cause an average increase of water savings efficiency by 25% and an increase of rainwater usage from 200 L/day to 300 L/day will cause an average increase of water savings efficiency by 20%.

We discuss the thermodynamic properties of these black holes focusing on their supersymmetric limit. The Bekenstein-Hawking entropy of the supersymmetric black holes scales as $N^3$ and can be reproduced by the superconformal index of the holographically dual 4d $\mathcal{N}=1$ SCFTs of class $\mathcal{S}$.

description: Biological invasions can be influenced by trait variation in the invader, such as behavioural traits and ecological factors, such as variation in pathogen pressure. High-throughput nucleotide sequencing has increased our capacity to investigate the genomic basis of the functional changes associated with biological invasions. Here, we used RNA-sequencing in Argentina and California, Australia and New Zealand to investigate if native and introduced Argentine ant populations were characterised by distinct transcriptomic signatures. We focused our analysis on viral pressure and immunity, as well as genes associated with biogenic amines known to modulate key behaviour in social insects. Using a combination of differential expression analysis, gene co-expression network analysis and candidate gene approach, we show that native and introduced populations have distinct transcriptomic signatures. Genes associated with biogenic amines were overall up-regulated in the native range compared to introduced populations. Although we found no significant variation in overall viral loads amongst regions for viruses known to infect Argentine ants, viral diversity was lower in most of the introduced range which was interestingly associated with down-regulation of the RNAi immune pathway, primarily directed against viruses. Altogether, our data show that Argentine ant populations exhibit range-specific transcriptomic signatures, perhaps reflecting regional adaptations that may contribute to the ecological success of introduced populations.

description: Studying the physical and chemical processes leading to the formation of low-mass stars is crucial for understanding the origin of our Sun and the Solar System. In particular, analyzing the emission and absorption lines from molecules is a fundamental tool to obtain information on the kinematics and chemistry at the very early stages of star formation. In this work we aim to examine the spatial structures and molecular abundances of material surrounding the very well-known low-mass binary protostar IRAS 16293-2422 and the prestellar core 16293E, which are embedded in the Lynds 1689N dark cloud. We have used the LAsMA heterodyne array installed on the Atacama Pathfinder EXperiment (APEX) 12 meter submillimeter telescope to image a region of about 0.12x0.12pc$^2$ around IRAS 16293-2422 and 16293E and to study their molecular environment covering 45.6GHz in a frequency range from 277GHz to 375GHz. We have identified 144 transitions from 36 molecular species, including isotopologues. The maps reveal the envelope to have a complex morphology around the cloud cores and the emission peaks known as E1, E2, W1, W2, and HE2, including the outflow structure arising from IRAS 16293-2422. Using several transitions of para-H$_2$CO, we have derived new lower limits for the kinetic temperatures toward IRAS 16293-2422 and the surrounding emission peaks. Based on these temperatures, H$_2$ volume densities and column densities for all detected species were derived around the cloud cores and all emission peaks. Our new observations further confirm the scenario of an outflow arising from IRAS 16293-2422 interacting with the prestellar core 16293E. We observe a large-scale velocity gradient across the molecular cloud. Furthermore, we see clear chemical differences at the examined positions. The data suggests that emission peak W2 may be related to a colder dust source.

description: We introduce a coarse-grained model of DNA with bases modeled as rigid-body ellipsoids to capture their anisotropic stereochemistry. Interaction potentials are all physicochemical and generated from all-atom simulation/parameterization with minimal phenomenology. Persistence length, degree of stacking, and twist are studied by molecular dynamics simulation as functions of temperature, salt concentration, sequence, interaction potential strength, and local position along the chain, for both single- and double-stranded DNA where appropriate. The model of DNA shows several phase transitions and crossover regimes in addition to dehybridization, including unstacking, untwisting, and collapse which affect mechanical properties such as rigidity and persistence length. The model also exhibits chirality with a stable right-handed and metastable left-handed helix.

description: A neutron-energy dependent angular distribution was measured for individual $γ$-rays from the 3.2 eV $p$-wave resonance of $^{131}$Xe+$n$, that shows enhanced parity violation owing to a mixing between $s$- and $p$-wave amplitudes. The $γ$-ray transitions from the $p$-wave resonance were identified, and the angular distribution with respect to the neutron momentum was evaluated as a function of the neutron energy for 7132 keV $γ$-rays, which correspond to a transition to the 1807 keV excited state of $^{132}$Xe. The angular distribution is considered to originate from the interference between $s$- and $p$-wave amplitudes, and will provide a basis for a quantitative understanding of the enhancement mechanism of the fundamental parity violation in compound nuclei.

description: Stochastic approximation Monte Carlo (SAMC) has recently been proposed by Liang, Liu and Carroll [J. Amer. Statist. Assoc. 102 (2007) 305--320] as a general simulation and optimization algorithm. In this paper, we propose to improve its convergence using smoothing methods and discuss the application of the new algorithm to Bayesian model selection problems. The new algorithm is tested through a change-point identification example. The numerical results indicate that the new algorithm can outperform SAMC and reversible jump MCMC significantly for the model selection problems. The new algorithm represents a general form of the stochastic approximation Markov chain Monte Carlo algorithm. It allows multiple samples to be generated at each iteration, and a bias term to be included in the parameter updating step. A rigorous proof for the convergence of the general algorithm is established under verifiable conditions. This paper also provides a framework on how to improve efficiency of Monte Carlo simulations by incorporating some nonparametric techniques.

description: Research and development (R&D) play an increasingly important role in the economy of the United States. Total expenditures for R&D during the decade of the 1950's were greater than in the entire history of the United States previous to that time. As a percent of gross national product, R&D has grown from 0.2 percent in 1921, to 0.4 to 0.6 percent in the 1930's and 1940's, and is now more than 3 percent.1
Much has been said of the impact that the growth of R&D has on the general economy. R&D had also had a significant economic and sociocultural impact on the local areas of R&D concentration--an aspect of R&D which is difficult to measure and frequently ignored. Although a general view of R&D in the United States as whole is given, the present study is mainly concerned with the economic impact of R&D on a local area. Although not exhaustive, this study represents and attempt to gain information in a vitally important area of the economy which has generally been ignored.

description: Chinese agriculture differs from the Western agriculture in the development and utilization of agricultural science on the fields. China has always been an agricultural country, but she failed to improve in techniques of cultivation as the time passed by. The land, prior to the Communist take-over, was owned and cultivated by individuals and the produce was sold in a free-market. Unfortunately, the Chinese government, prior to 1949, failed to bring about adequate agricultural reforms and implement economic development measures.
As a result an overwhelming proportion of the population of China is occupied on the land, the supply of which is fixed, and the capital resources employed are small, the per capita output and income of China are low. With the vast majority of the population in agriculture and low per capita output, the national income of the country is also low. Thus, China is classified as an underdeveloped nation. Arising from the same problem of overpopulation, the family land was subdivided and fragmented into economically inefficient units before the Communist take-over.

description: Binary neutron stars mergers widely accepted as potential progenitors of short gamma-ray bursts. After the remnant of the merger has collapsed to a black hole, a jet is powered and may breakout from the the matter expelled during the collision and the subsequent wind emission. The interaction of the jet with the ejecta may affect its dynamics and the resulting electromagnetic counterparts. We here examine how an inhomogeneous and anisotropic distribution of ejecta affects such dynamics, dictating the properties of the jet-ejecta cocoon and of the afterglow radiated by the jet upon deceleration. More specifically, we carry out general-relativistic hydrodynamical simulations of relativistic jets launched within a variety of geometrically inhomogeneous and anisotropic distributions of ejected matter. We find that different anisotropies impact the variance of the afterglow light-curves as a function of the jet luminosity and ejected mass. A considerable amount of the jet energy is deposited in the cocoon through the jet-ejecta interaction with a small but important dependence on the properties of the ejecta. Furthermore, all configurations show a two-component behaviour for the polar structure of the jet, with a narrow core at large energies and Lorentz factors and a shallow segment at high latitudes from the jet axis. Hence, afterglows measured on off-axis lines of sight could be used to deduce the properties of the ejected matter, but also that the latter need to be properly accounted for when modelling the afterglow signal and the jet-launching mechanisms.

description: We study several aspects of generalized Janus configuration, which includes a theta term. We investigate the vacuum structure of the theory and find that unlike the Janus configuration without theta term there is no nontrivial vacuum. We also discuss BPS soliton configuration both by supersymmetry analysis and from energy functional. The half BPS configurations could be realized by introducing transverse (p,q)-strings in original brane configuration corresponding to generalized Janus configuration. It turns out the BPS soliton could be taken as modified dyon. We discuss the solution of half BPS equations for the sharp interface case. Moreover we construct less supersymmetric Janus configuration with theta term.

description: In this paper we show that the N=4 SYM total cross section violates the Froissart theorem, and in the huge range of energy this cross section is proportional to $s^{1/3}$. The graviton reggeization will change this increase to the normal logarithmic behaviour $σ\propto \ln^2 s$. However, we demonstrated that this happens at ultra high energy, much higher than the LHC energy. In the region of accessible energy we need to assume that there is a different source for the total cross section, with the value of the cross section about 40 mb. With this assumption we successfully describe $σ_{tot}, σ_{el}$ and $σ_{diff}$ for the accessible range of energy from the fixed target Fermilab to the Tevatron energies. It turns out that the N=4 SYM mechanism can be responsible only for a small part of the inelastic cross section for this energy region (about $2 mb$). However, at the LHC energy the N=4 SYM theory can describe the multipartticle production with $σ_{in} \approx 28 mb$. The second surprise is the fact that the total cross section and the diffraction cross section can increase considerably from the Tevatron to the LHC energy. The bad description of $B_{el}$ gives the strong argument that the non N=4 SYM background should depend on energy. We believe that we have a dilemma: to find a new mechanism for the inelastic production in the framework of N=4 SYM other than the reggeized graviton interaction, or to accept that N=4 SYM is irrelevant to any experimental data that has been measured before the LHC era.

description: The information metric on the space of boundary coupling constants in two-dimensional conformal field theories is studied. Such a metric is related to the Casimir energy difference of the theory defined on an interval. We concretely compute the information metric on the boundary conformal manifold of free boson CFT as well as SU(2)k WZW theory, obtaining the result expected from the symmetry of the systems. We also compute the information metric on the space of non-conformal boundary states produced by boundary mass perturbations in the theory of a real free scalar. The holographic dual of the boundary information metric in the context of AdS3/BCFT2 is also discussed. We argue that it corresponds to the area of the minimal cross section of the end-of-the-world brane connecting two boundaries of the asymptotic BCFTs.

Factors affecting growth and fruiting of Phaseolus vulgaris L.

Publisher: name: University of British Columbia

description: Experiments were conducted in controlled-environment cabinets to show the effect of temperature and light intensity on the growth and fruiting of snap beans. Leaf weights varied inversely with the temperature, but stem weights and numbers of nodes were not greatly affected by day temperature in the range of 75° to 95°F. Blossoming and pod set were similar at day temperatures of 75° and 85°F but were reduced at 95°F. When day temperature was 95°F, a 60°F night temperature resulted in increased blossoming and pod set compared to 80°F. When pods were harvested at marketable maturity, blossoming in bush beans was cyclic. Plants grown at a light intensity of 1900 foot-candles had a lower fresh and dry weight of leaves, stems, and pods, and fewer blossoms and pods set than plants grown at 2700 and 4000 foot-candles. Field experiments showed that planting dates after May 29 reduced the yield of pods in pole beans. Nitrogen level and row direction did not affect yield of pods in pole beans. Number of pods per plant in pole beans increased directly with the row spacing. Chemical sprays at blossoming caused no increase in yield of pods in pole beans, and only a slight increase in the yield of pods in bush beans. Differences in yields of pods between varieties of bush beans were due differences in the number of pods per plant.

description: Non-Hermitian topological band structures such as symmetry-protected exceptional rings (SPERs) can emerge for systems described by the generalized eigenvalue problem (GEVP) with Hermitian matrices. In this paper, we numerically analyze a photonic crystal with negative index media, which is described by the GEVP with Hermitian matrices. Our analysis using COMSOL Multiphysics demonstrates that a SPER emerges for photonic crystals composed of split-ring resonators and metal-wire structures. We expect that the above SPER can be observed in experiments as it emerges at a finite frequency.

description: Structural, magnetic and electronic structural properties of Ni0.2Cd0.3Fe2.5-xAlxO4 ferrites nanoparticles have been studied x-ray diffraction (XRD), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dc magnetization, and near edge x-ray absorption fine structure spectroscopy (NEXAFS) measurements. Nanoparticles of Ni0.2Cd0.3Fe2.5-xAlxO4 (x = 0.0 - 0.4) ferrite were synthesized using sol-gel method. The XRD and TEM measurements show that all samples have single phase nature with cubic structure and have nanocrystalline behavior. From the XRD and TEM analysis, it is observed that particle size increases with Al doping. DC magnetization measurements infer that magnetic moment decreases whereas blocking temperature increases with increase in Al doping. It is observed that the magnetic moment decreases with Al doping which may be due to the dilution of the sublattice by the doping of Al ions. The NEXAFS measurements performed at room temperature indicates that Fe exist in mixed valence state.

description: Conditions required for seed germination are different among species. Some seed of tropical and subtropical plants may germinate before the maturation of their fleshy fruit, e.g. papaya species, while seed from most deciduous trees have a period of after-ripening before germination. The after-ripening period, also referred to as rest or dormancy has also been observed in some vegetable crops and ornamental flowers.
