The Formation of Population III Binaries

description: We explore the possibility for the formation of Population III binaries. The collapse of a rotating cylinder is simulated with a three-dimensional, high-resolution nested grid, assuming the thermal history of primordial gas. The simulations are done with dimensionless units, and the results are applicable to low-mass as well as massive systems by scaling with the initial density. We find that if the initial angular momentum is as small as $β\approx 0.1$, where $β$ is the ratio of centrifugal force to pressure force, then the runaway collapse of the cloud stops to form a rotationally-supported disk. After the accretion of the envelope, the disk undergoes a ring instability, eventually fragmenting into a binary. If the initial angular momentum is relatively large, a bar-type instability arises, resulting in the collapse into a single star through rapid angular momentum transfer. The present results show that a significant fraction of Pop III stars are expected to form in binary systems, even if they are quite massive or less massive. The cosmological implications of Population III binaries are briefly discussed.

description: In the article, the determinants of the start of organic agricultural production were identified, as well as those supporting the conversion process barriers for operating this type of farm. For the purposes of the study, organic status reports were used, drawn up by the GIJHARS, as well as the results of the study, which was carried out on a group of 55 organic farms. Conducted analysis show that the most important aspect of establishing an organic farm is the higher funding for organic farms relative to conventional. The biggest barrier to the organic farming is how to adapt nature and how to conduct farm management for organic farming. Among the barriers to organic farming, the most onerous is to obtain an adequate remuneration for organic products. This article presents the results of international research on organic farming in various countries of the world, in order to demonstrate that the problems of Polish organic farms are similar to organic farms in other countries in the early stages of development. / Synopsis. W artykule zidentyfikowano uwarunkowania rozpoczęcia ekologicznej produkcji rolnej jak również bariery towarzyszące procesowi konwersji i prowadzeniu tego typu gospodarstw. Na potrzeby opracowania wykorzystane zostały raporty o stanie rolnictwa ekologicznego sporządzane przez GIJHARS, a także wyniki badania własnego, przeprowadzonego na grupie 55 ekologicznych gospodarstw rolnych. Przeprowadzone analizy dowodzą, iż najistotniejszym aspektem, warunkującym założenie gospodarstwa ekologicznego, jest wyższe dofinansowanie do gospodarstw ekologicznych względem konwencjonalnych. Największą barierą, towarzyszącą założeniu gospodarstwa ekologicznego, jest dostosowanie charakteru i sposobu zarządzania gospodarstwem, do zasad prowadzenia rolnictwa ekologicznego. Wśród barier towarzyszących prowadzeniu gospodarstwa ekologicznego, najbardziej uciążliwe jest uzyskanie adekwatnego wynagrodzenia za wyroby ekologiczne. W artykule przedstawiono także wyniki badań międzynarodowych, dotyczące rolnictwa ekologicznego w różnych krajach świata, celem pokazania, że problemy polskich gospodarstw ekologicznych, są podobne do problemów gospodarstw ekologicznych w innych krajach, we wczesnym etapie rozwoju.
An interrogation of Christo and Jeanne-Calude’s The Gates, Central Park, New York 1979-2005, or a spectre of Socialist Realism in the new economy
Creators: name: Watt, Deborah J.
Publisher: name: University of British Columbia
Year: 2010

description: This thesis examines artists Christo and Jeanne-Claude's recent art installation, The Gates. Central Park. New York. 1979-2005. I argue that the urban political processes that gave rise to The Gates. Central Park. New York. 1979-2005 underscore the event's performative and material attributes. I read Christo and Jeanne-Claude's recent work as both symptomatic and synoptic of the social and spatial politics of the new economy through its display of labour, leisure, the park and the city. Through its discreet visual elements and process of production, The Gates. Central Park. New York. 1979-2005 took on numerous characteristics of the urban imperatives of the new economy, particularly entrepreneurial and creative cities scripts. I dissect the complexities of this event in three chapters. The first chapter examines transitions in artists' mode of production from the 1960's to the present. This chapter emphasizes the different forms of post-industrial labour that the artists have used in their practice since 1969. The second chapter analyzes Christo and Jeanne-Claude's 1980 proposal for, and the City of New York's 1981 rejection of The Gates. Central Park. New York. 1979- 2005. I emphasize transitions in urban cultural politics in New York as a means of understanding the city's 1981 rejection and 2005 embrace of the event. The third chapter presents and ethnographic account of the installation in February 2005. I examine how the form of the event effectively smoothed over and reinforced a normative field of contemporary urban social space. These chapters show in different ways, the relationship between Christo and Jeanne Claude's art practices and dramatic changes in urban cultural politics over the past three decades.
Thermal transport in a weakly magnetized hot QCD medium

description: The thermal transport coefficients in a weakly magnetized quark-gluon plasma have been investigated within the ambit of a quasiparticle model to encode the effects of the realistic equation of state. The presence of a weak magnetic field leads to the Hall-type conductivity associated with thermal transport in the medium. An effective covariant kinetic theory has been employed to quantify the thermal dissipation while incorporating the mean field contributions in the medium. The interplay of thermal transport and electric charge transport in the weakly magnetized medium has been explored in terms of the Wiedemann-Franz law. Strong violation of the Wiedemann-Franz law has been observed in temperature regimes near to the transition temperature. The behaviour of thermal conductivity in the strong magnetic field limit has also been studied. It is observed that both the magnetic field and equation of state have a significant impact on the thermal dissipation in the medium.

description: Observations have suggested substantial departures from pressure equilibrium in the interstellar medium (ISM) in the plane of the Galaxy, even on scales under 50 pc. Nevertheless, multi-phase models of the ISM assume at least locally isobaric gas. The pressure then determines the density reached by gas cooling to stable thermal equilibrium. We use numerical models of the magnetized ISM to examine the consequences of supernova driving for interstellar pressures. In this paper we examine a (200 pc)^3 periodic domain threaded by magnetic fields. Individual parcels of gas at different pressures reach widely varying points on the thermal equilibrium curve: no unique set of phases is found, but rather a dynamically-determined continuum of densities and temperatures. A substantial fraction of the gas remains entirely out of thermal equilibrium. Our results appear consistent with observations of interstellar pressures. They also suggest that the high pressures observed in molecular clouds may be due to ram pressures in addition to gravitational forces. Much of the gas in our model lies far from equipartition between thermal and magnetic pressures, with ratios ranging from 0.1 to $10^4$ and ratios of uniform to fluctuating magnetic field of 0.5--1. Our models show broad pressure probability distribution functions with log-normal functional forms produced by both shocks and rarefaction waves, rather than power-law distributions produced by isolated supernova remnants. The width of the distribution can be described quantitatively by a formula derived from the work of Padoan, Nordlund, & Jones (1997).

description: In the era of globalization the need to protect the dwindling natural resources of the Earth, aimed at the production of economic good is increasingly recognized. The article assumes that the main resource of rural areas is the soil and the environment as a producer of crops and climate and landscape and the use of them is under the control of the people. The aim of this study is to show the natural resources of rural areas in the world and in Poland, as a basic factor of economic development. The paper presents an analysis of a given problem, based on a review of the world literature and the results of own research, carried out among the inhabitants of rural communities in Podkarpackie Region. The work positively verified research hypothesis which assumes that the best form of protection of natural resources in rural areas is the concept of the green economy, based on ecologically safe agriculture and environmental awareness of all the inhabitants of the rural areas. / Synopsis.

description: In practical sensing tasks, noise is usually regarded as an obstruction to better performance and will degrade the sensitivity. Fortunately, \textit{stochastic resonance} (SR), a counterintuitive concept, can utilize noise to greatly enhance the detected signal amplitude. Although fundamentally important as a mechanism of weak signal amplification, and has been continually explored in geological, biological, and physical science, both theoretically and experimentally, SR has yet to be demonstrated in realistic sensing tasks. Here we develop a novel SR-based nonlinear sensor using a thermal ensemble of interacting Rydberg atoms. With the assistance of stochastic noise (either inherently in the system or added externally) and strong nonlinearity in the Rydberg ensembles, the signal encoded in a weak MW field is greatly enhanced (over 25 dB). Moreover, we show that the SR-based atomic sensor can achieve a better sensitivity in our system, which is over 6.6 dB compared to a heterodye atomic sensor. Our results show potential advantage of SR-based MW sensors in commercial or defense-related applications.
What is the meaning of the statistical hadronization model?

Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)

description: The statistical model of hadronization succeeds in reproducing particle abundances and transverse momentum spectra in high energy collisions of elementary particles as well as of heavy ions. Despite its apparent success, the interpretation of these results is controversial and the validity of the approach very often questioned. In this paper, we would like to summarize the whole issue by first outlining a basic formulation of the model and then comment on the main criticisms and different kinds of interpretations, with special emphasis on the so-called "phase space dominance". While the ultimate answer to the question why the statistical model works should certainly be pursued, we stress that it is a priority to confirm or disprove the fundamental scheme of the statistical model by performing some detailed tests on the rates of exclusive channels at lower energy.

description: The application of atom probe tomography (APT) to frozen liquids is limited by difficulties in specimen preparation. Here, we report on the use of nanoporous Cu needles as a physical framework to hold water ice for investigation using APT. Nanoporous Cu needles are prepared by the electropolishing and dealloying of Cu-Mn matchstick precursors. Cryogenic scanning electron microscopy and focused-ion beam milling reveal a hierarchical, dendritic, highly-wettable microstructure. The atom probe mass spectrum is dominated by peaks of Cu+ and H(H2O)n+ up to n <= 3, and the reconstructed volume shows the protrusion of a Cu ligament into an ice-filled pore. The continuous Cu ligament network electrically connects the apex to the cryostage, leading to enhanced electric field at the apex and increased cooling, both of which simplify the mass spectrum compared to previous reports.
Semantics-Guided Synthesis

description: This paper develops a new framework for program synthesis, called semantics-guided synthesis (SemGuS), that allows a user to provide both the syntax and the semantics for the constructs in the language. SemGuS accepts a recursively defined big-step semantics, which allows it, for example, to be used to specify and solve synthesis problems over an imperative programming language that may contain loops with unbounded behavior. The customizable nature of SemGuS also allows synthesis problems to be defined over a non-standard semantics, such as an abstract semantics. In addition to the SemGuS framework, we develop an algorithm for solving SemGuS problems that is capable of both synthesizing programs and proving unrealizability, by encoding a SemGuS problem as a proof search over Constrained Horn Clauses: in particular, our approach is the first that we are aware of that can prove unrealizabilty for synthesis problems that involve imperative programs with unbounded loops, over an infinite syntactic search space. We implemented the technique in a tool called MESSY, and applied it to both SyGuS problems(i.e., over expressions) and synthesis problems over an imperative programming language.

Synchronization of rotating helices by hydrodynamic interactions
Creators: name: Reichert, M.

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2004
Subjects: subject: Soft Condensed Matter (cond-mat.soft)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Some types of bacteria use rotating helical flagella to swim. The motion of such organisms takes place in the regime of low Reynolds numbers where viscous effects dominate and where the dynamics is governed by hydrodynamic interactions. Typically, rotating flagella form bundles, which means that their rotation is synchronized. The aim of this study is to investigate whether hydrodynamic interactions can be at the origin of such a bundling and synchronization. We consider two stiff helices that are modelled by rigidly connected beads, neglecting any elastic deformations. They are driven by constant and equal torques, and they are fixed in space by anchoring their terminal beads in harmonic traps. We observe that, for finite trap strength, hydrodynamic interactions do indeed synchronize the helix rotations. The speed of phase synchronization decreases with increasing trap stiffness. In the limit of infinite trap stiffness, the speed is zero and the helices do not synchronize.

description: Sustainable development rests on three pillars/dimensions: natural, social and economic. Economic analysis so far has not been sufficiently taken into account in forest management, which is why, among others reasons, economic experts need to produce business plans for forest management. Introducing an economic aspect to the practice of medium-term planning for State Forests by incorporating economic expertise to the management plan and its consequent analysis in the long term should contribute to the enhanced economic efficiency of individual forest districts and in the wider perspective to the whole economic organization of State Forests. Economic expertise for the forest district can be an effective tool to improve the efficiency of the district and planning at various levels of the organization and management of the State Forests. The data contained therein will allow for tracking the dynamics of economic phenomena in the individual units of State Forests. Indirectly, such analysis – carried out on the basis of the tasks included in the plan of forest management – will also lead to an optimized structure of forest functions. / Synopsis. Trwały i zrównoważony rozwój zasadza się na trzech filarach: przyrodniczym, społecznym i ekonomicznym. Analizy ekonomiczne dotychczas nie były dostatecznie uwzględniane w gospodarce leśnej, stąd też m.in. wynika potrzeba sporządzania specjalistycznych ekspertyz – biznesplanów do planu urządzenia lasu. Wprowadzenie do praktyki średniookresowego planowania w Lasach Państwowych w postaci ekspertyzy ekonomicznej i jej konsekwentna analiza w dłuższym okresie powinna przyczynić się podniesienia efektywności ekonomicznej poszczególnych nadleśnictw, a w szerszej perspektywie całej organizacji gospodarczej Lasy Państwowe. Ekspertyza ekonomiczna nadleśnictwa może stanowić skuteczne narzędzie poprawy sprawności funkcjonowania nadleśnictw oraz planowania na różnych szczeblach organizacji i zarządzania w Lasach Państwowych. Dane tam zawarte pozwolą na śledzenie dynamiki zjawisk ekonomicznych w poszczególnych jednostkach Lasów Państwowych. Pośrednio analizy takie – przeprowadzane na podstawie zadań zawartych w planie urządzenia lasu – będą również prowadzić do optymalizacji struktury funkcji lasu.

description: With the end of milk quotas, the increasing openness of economies and the increased volatility of international prices, the question of the competitiveness of the French dairy sector is at the heart of many debates. Competitiveness is generally defined as the ability of a company or a country to conquer and/or maintain market shares in the face of competition both on the domestic and export markets. The French dairy sector is not only an important player in European and international trade in dairy products, but it has some good opportunities in the domestic market, including for high-value products. The decline in domestic consumption (in milk equivalent), the gradual saturation of the European demand and competition from several other European countries are now an incentive to develop our exports to more distant markets showing a growth in demand. Compared to other European or international competing countries (New Zealand, United States), the cost of producing milk in France, especially in the West (main French dairy region), is favored by low inputs, particularly because of abundant forage production (autonomy for feeding dairy cows). The way of achieving such a high level of autonomy, however, weights today on the average level of labor productivity and on the structure of expenses (high cost of mechanization) due to the importance of forages now mostly grown, harvested and distributed mechanically.

description: Field studies were conducted at the Famu research farm at Quincy, Florida, during the 1999 and 2000 growing seasons to examine the effect of organic and synthetic mulches on the yield potential of Scotch Bonnet hot peppers Capsicum chinense. For the 1999 study, only 2 mulches, one organic (Bahia grass) and one synthetic (black plastic) and a control (bare ground) were used. The 2000 study extended the synthetic mulches to white plastic and silver plastic (both reflective) and the organic mulches to perennial peanut and mushroom compost. For both years, the experimental design was a Randomized Complete Block Design with 3 replications. A drip irrigation system was installed to supply the moisture requirements of the crop. Weekly harvests were conducted to obtain data on yield parameters such as fruit size, fruits plant"1 and marketable fruits ha"1. For the first year of the study, fruits from plots mulched with Bahia grass, were significantly larger (P < 0.05) than fruits from plots mulched with black and white plastic. However, none of the plots showed any significant differences in fruits plant"' and marketable fruits ha"1. In the second year of the study, With the exception of plots mulched with bahia grass, yield from plots mulched with organic mulches were significantly higher, Ρ < 0.05 than plots mulched with black and white synthetic mulches and the control plots. However, marketable fruit yield from plots mulched with silver plastic was not statistically different (P < 0.05) to yield from organic mulch plots. Highest yield (2629 kg ha"1) was obtained from plots mulched with mushroom compost. These plots also produced significantly higher yield ha"1 and fruits plant"1 compared to all plots with the exception of those mulched with perennial peanut and silver plastic. Plots mulched with black plastic produced significantly smaller fruits compared to all other plots.

description: A pre-breeding programme was initiated at CRU in 1997 to accumulate genes for resistance to black pod disease (Phytophthora pod rot) of cacao. Promising accessions were selected from the International Cocoa Genebank, Trinidad (ICG,T), intercrossed and their progenies screened for resistance to Phytophthora using a leaf disc inoculation method. From 36 crosses established in 1998, 1010 seedlings were tested in three rounds of leaf inoculations for resistance to P. palmivora. Results showed significant differences in resistance to P. palmivora among progenies from the 36 crosses. Progeny distributions for most crosses showed the occurrence of useful transgressive segregates with higher levels of resistance than the parental clones. Narrow sense (h„.s.) and broad sense (hbs.) heritabilities were estimated at 0.33 and 0.51, respectively. Genetic gain (Gs) was estimated at 0.98 on the 0-5 resistance rating scale (selection intensity, 10% = 1.755, standard deviation = 1.092 and h (b.s.) = 0.51). The selected seedling population would therefore have an average genetic resistance level of 2.42 (mean of all progenies, 3.4 - 0.98 expected genetic gain) which is higher than the resistance level of SCA 6 (2.64), a resistant control in the experiments. Based on the result of the leaf test for resistance to Phytophthora, 101 resistant seedlings were selected and planted in the field for further observations. The enhanced population derived from this programme should provide a source of useful resistance genes to black pod disease of cacao.

description: The Cahn-Hilliard equation is related with a number of interesting physical phenomena like the spinodal decomposition, phase separation and phase ordering dynamics. On the other hand this equation is very stiff an the difficulty to solve it numerically increases with the dimensionality and therefore, there are several published numerical studies in one dimension (1D), dealing with different approaches, and much fewer in two dimensions (2D). In three dimensions (3D) there are very few publications, usually concentrate in some specific result without the details of the used numerical scheme. We present here a stable and fast conservative finite difference scheme to solve the Cahn-Hilliard with two improvements: a splitting potential into a implicit and explicit in time part and a the use of free boundary conditions. We show that gradient stability is achieved in one, two and three dimensions with large time marching steps than normal methods.

description: Experimental, numerical and analytical studies are conducted to gain a better understanding of the influence of the stoichiometric mixture fraction Zst on the structure and critical conditions of extinction of non-premixed methane and non-premixed dimethyl ether flames. Experimental studies were carried out using a counterflow setup, consisting of an oxidizer duct and a fuel duct. A steady, laminar and axisymmetric flow leaves each duct and stagnates against the flow of the opposed duct. In this way a stagnation plane is produced by the two reactant streams, leading to a reaction zone at the boundary layer. By diffusion the oxidant and the fuel form a flammable mixture in the region with the maximum energy output. The combustion in a counter flow burner is mainly dependent on the chemical reaction time and the velocity of the flow of the fuel and the flow of the oxidizer. The characteristic chemical time depends on the adiabatic temperature and the stoichiometric mixture fraction, whereas the characteristic flow time is given by the strain rate. If the fuel and oxidizer velocities exceed a certain value the reaction ends abruptly. This state is called extinction. In order to elucidate the effect of Zst, the mass fractions of the reactants were so chosen that Tst is fixed. For methane, it was found that the strain rate at extinction continually increased with increasing Zst, signifying that with decreasing fuel mass fraction and rising oxygen mass fraction the flame becomes harder to extinguish. This was confirmed by numerical studies and asymptotic analysis. The predictions of the analysis show that with increasing values of Zst, the scalar dissipation rate at extinction Zst,q, first increases and then decreases. A key outcome of the analysis is that with increasing stoichiometric mixture fraction, the thickness of the regions where oxygen and fuel are consumed first increases and then decreases. Numerical computations using the San Diego Mechanism show a full consumption of fuel and a leakage of oxygen for all values of Zst, whereas computations using reduced chemistry show a leakage of fuel from the reaction zone at low values of Zst and a leakage of oxygen at low (1 - Zst). Results of extinction experiments in the counterflow burner with dimethyl ether show a decrease followed by an increase in the strain rate at extinction with increasing values of Zst. This behavior is observed at different oxidizer and fuel mass fractions obtained using various Lewis numbers in the calculation of the mixture fraction. Numerical computations were performed but do not match the experimental results, showing a much more significant decrease in strain rates at extinction.

description: This article establishes, for an appropriate localisation of associative rings, a long exact sequence in algebraic K-theory. The main result goes as follows. Let A be an associative ring and let A-->B be the localisation with respect to a set sigma of maps between finitely generated projective A-modules. Suppose that Tor_n^A(B,B) vanishes for all n>0. View each map in sigma as a complex (of length 1, meaning one non-zero map between two non-zero objects) in the category of perfect complexes D^perf(A). Denote by the thick subcategory generated by these complexes. Then the canonical functor D^perf(A)-->D^perf(B) induces (up to direct factors) an equivalence D^perf(A)/--> D^perf(B). As a consequence, one obtains a homotopy fibre sequence K(A,sigma)-->K(A)-->K(B) (up to surjectivity of K_0(A)-->K_0(B)) of Waldhausen K-theory spectra. In subsequent articles we will present the K- and L-theoretic consequences of the main theorem in a form more suitable for the applications to surgery. For example if, in addition to the vanishing of Tor_n^A(B,B), we also assume that every map in sigma is a monomorphism, then there is a description of the homotopy fiber of the map K(A)-->K(B) as the Quillen K-theory of a suitable exact category of torsion modules.

description: Sugarcane yields have declined dramatically since 1968 in Barbados, and there is an urgent need for determination of the cause. Ratoon Stunting Disease (RSD) is seen as one possible cause. In order to determine the incidence of RSD in the fields in Barbados, 3,100 plant samples were taken from the fields across the island and were tested using Evaporative Binding-Enzyme Linked Immuno Assay (EB-EIA). This survey showed the widespread occurrence of the disease in the commercial fields. Five of the commercial varieties showed more than 10% positive samples. In addition, significant differences were observed between ratoons for the five major commercial varieties. Some of the new varieties under selection also tested positive for RSD.

description: In the Virgin Islands hot peppers (Capsicum chinense L.) are a high value crop of which there is great demand for both fresh pepper and processed products. Previous studies have identified cultivars with high yields and good market potential. A field trial was established during the summer season of 2000 to determine the response of hot pepper cultivars to levels of drip irrigation. Four cultivars ('Habanero', 'Red Scotch Bonnet', 'Yellow Scotch Bonnet', and 'West Indies Red') were drip irrigated at soil moisture levels maintained at -20, -40 and -60 kPa based on soil tensiometer. The trial was designed using a split-plot in randomized block design. The drip irrigation levels were the main plots and the cultivars were the subplots. Data on irrigation water use, plant height, and number and weight of fruits were collected. Results indicated no significant (P>0.05) response to levels of drip irrigation. The cultivars also did not differ significantly (P>0.05) in yield at each irrigation level. Significant differences (P<0.05) in mean plant height, fruit size and number of fruits across irrigation levels were observed among cultivars. Cultivars 'Habanero' and 'West Indies Red' produced higher number of fruits than 'Red' and 'Yellow Scotch Bonnet'. Cultivars 'Red Scotch Bonnet' and 'West Indies Red' produced larger fruits than 'Habanero' and 'Yellow Scotch Bonnet.' Total water use was highest at irrigation level of -40 kPa and lowest at -60 kPa soil moisture. Water use efficiency was highest at irrigation rate of -60 kPa and lowest at -20 kPa. This study indicates that increasing irrigation rate has no effect on hot pepper yield and therefore hot peppers can be produced with minimum irrigation.

description: Seven different plant population densities were tried on the hot pepper cultivar, 'West Indies Red', in two important trials, one was done in 1998 and the other in 1999 in Barbados. The population densities ranged from 5,744 plants up to 40,000 plants per hectare. The results showed a linear increase in yields as the plant population density increased. However, the yield from 30,000 plants per hectare did not differ significantly from that obtained from 40,000 plants per hectare. The yield per hectare from the highest plant population density of 40,000 plants was 123% higher than the yield from the farmer practice (9,570 plants/ha). The changes in treatments did not affect berry shapes and sizes. However, the plants grew taller and narrower as the population density increased.
