description: An accurate method to compute the annihilation rate in positronic systems by means of quantum Monte Carlo simulations is tested and compared with previously proposed methods using simple model systems. This method can be applied within all the quantum Monte Carlo techniques, just requiring to accumulate the positron-electron distribution function. The annihilation rate of e$^+$LiH as a function of the internuclear distance is studied using a model potential approach to eliminate the core electrons of Li, and explicitly correlated wave functions to deal with all the remaining particles. These results allow us to compute vibrationally averaged annihilation rates, and to understand the effect of the Li$^+$ electric field on positron and electron distributions.

description: The primary objective of the paper was to analyse how marginalisation affects profit efficiency, a secondary to identify and analyse some other possible inefficiency factors. In order to do this we estimated a translog restricted profit frontier function with an integrated inefficiency module. An unbalanced panel of 2161 observations of active Norwegian forest owners over the years 1991-2004 was used. The more marginal forestry income becomes the forest owner. Efficiency differences are likely to be caused by different information levels. The average forest owner could potentially increase his profit by 7.7% by catching up with the front. We suggest lease contracts as a policy means to ensure efficient timber supply with requiring much attention from the forest owner.

description: We report the detection of the (J,K) = (1,1), (2,2), and (3,3) inversion lines of ammonia (NH3) towards the south--western molecular lobe in M82. The relative intensities of the ammonia lines are characterized by a rotational temperature of T_rot=29+/-5 K which implies an average kinetic temperature of T_kin~60 K. A Gaussian decomposition of the observed spectra indicates increasing kinetic temperatures towards the nucleus of M82, consistent with recent findings based on CO observations. The observations imply a very low NH3 abundance relative to H2, X(NH3)~5x10^(-10). We present evidence for a decreasing NH3 abundance towards the central active regions in M82 and interpret this abundance gradient in terms of photodissociation of NH3 in PDRs. The low temperature derived here from NH3 also explains the apparent underabundance of complex molecules like CH_3OH and HNCO, which has previously been reported.

description: A study was made of the economical success factors of small-scale enterprises in the wood products industry. The study was based in financial statements made during 2002-2004. The study surveyed the core parameters determining the cost-effectiveness of trade describes the small-scale enterprises and their operations and analyses the special features of the most successful companies. The research looked at 40 financial statements of small-scale enterprises, and 22 entrepreneurs were interviewed. On the basis of the financial statement analysis, the enterprises were divided into those which were the most successful economically and others. The economical success of the 40 enterprises studied was on average at least satisfactory during 2002-2004. Profitability was good or satisfactory when measured by net result. Solvency and liquidity were also at a good level. The turnover of the most successful enterprises was bigger than the others. More than half of their total turnover came from manufacturing furniture for public function rooms and other special furniture. The least successful enterprises were in manufacturing components and sub-contracting. The majority of the most successful enterprises focused only on one line of business. In both groups, other small-scale enterprises were considered as significant competitors. Approximately half of the enterprises considered quality as a competitive toll. Other significant competitive tools were price, reliability of deliveries and customer orientation. Entrepreneurs were realistic when they estimated the economical success of their enterprise. In most cases successful enterprises considered their profitability, liquidity and solvency to be at a good level, while about half of the other enterprises estimated their profitability, solvency and liquidity as being average.

description: We establish two geometric inequalities, respectively, for harmonic functions in exterior Dirichlet problems, and for Green's functions in interior Dirichlet problems, where the boundary surfaces are smooth and convex. Both inequalities involve integrals over the mean curvature and the Gaussian curvature on an equipotential surface, and the normal derivative of the harmonic potential thereupon. These inequalities generalize a geometric conservation law for equipotential curves in dimension two, and offer solutions to two free boundary problems in three-dimensional electrostatics.

description: Neutrino-matter interactions play a key role in binary neutron star mergers. Thermodynamics conditions at the surfaces where neutrinos decouple from matter influence neutrino spectra, ultimately affecting the evolution of the remnant and the properties of the ejecta. In this work, we post-process results of general relativistic merger simulations employing microphysical equations of state and approximate neutrino transport to investigate the thermodynamics conditions at which weak and thermal equilibrium freezes out (equilibrium surfaces), as well as conditions at which the transition between diffusion and free-streaming regime occurs (diffusion surfaces). We find that the rest mass density and the neutrino energy are the most relevant quantities in determining the location of the decoupling surfaces. For mean energy neutrinos ($\langle E_{ν_e} \rangle \approx 9~{\rm MeV}$, $\langle E_{{\barν}_e} \rangle \approx 15~{\rm MeV}$, $\langle E_{ν_{μ,τ}} \rangle \approx 25~{\rm MeV}$), diffusion surfaces are located around $10^{11}{\rm g~cm^{-3}}$ for all neutrino species, while equilibrium surfaces for heavy flavor neutrinos are significantly deeper (several $10^{12}{\rm g~cm^{-3}}$) than the ones of $\barν_e$ and $ν_e$ ($\gtrsim 10^{11}{\rm g~cm^{-3}}$). The resulting decoupling temperatures are in good agreement with the average neutrino energies ($\langle E_ν \rangle \sim 3.15~T$), with the softer equation of state characterized by systematically larger decoupling temperatures ($ΔT \lesssim 1~{\rm MeV}$). Neutrinos streaming at infinity with different energies come from very different regions of the remnant. The presence of a massive NS or of a BH in the remnant influences the neutrino thermalization process.

description: Energy considerations are core to the missions of armed forces worldwide. The interaction between military energy issues and non-military energy issues is not often explicitly treated in the literature or media, although issues around clean energy have increased awareness of this interaction. The military has also long taken a leadership role on research and development (R&D) and procurement of specific energy technologies. More recently, R&D leadership has moved to the energy efficiency of home-country installations, and the development of renewable energy projects for areas as diverse as mini-grids for installations, to alternative fuels for major weapons systems. In this paper we explore the evolving relationship between energy issues and defense planning, and show how these developments have implications for military tactics and strategy as well as for civilian energy policy.

description: Semiconductor nanolasers based on micro disks, photonic crystal cavities, and metallo-dielectric nanocavities have been studied during the last decade for on-chip light source applications. However, practical realization of low threshold, room temperature operation of semiconductor nanolasers is still a challenge due to the large surface-to-volume ratio of the nanostructures, which results in low optical gain and hence higher lasing threshold. Also, the gain in nanostructures is an important parameter for designing all-dielectric metamaterial-based active applications. Here, we investigate the impact of p-type doping, compressive strain, and surface recombination on the gain spectrum and the spatial distribution of carriers in GaAs nanocylinders. Our analysis reveals that the lasing threshold can be lowered by choosing the right doping concentration in the active III-V material combined with compressive strain. This combination of strain and p-type doping shows 100x improvement in gain and ~5 times increase in modulation bandwidth for high-speed operation.

description: Logging and tracking raw materials, workpieces and engineered products for seamless and quick pulls is a complex task in the construction and shipbuilding industries due to lack of structured storage solutions. Additional uncertainty is introduced if workpieces are stacked and moved by multiple stakeholders without maintaining an active and up-to-date log of such movements. While there are frameworks proposed to improve workpiece pull times using a variety of tracking modes based on deterministic approaches, there is little discussion of cases wherein direct observations are sparse due to occlusions from stacking and interferences. Our work addresses this problem by: logging visible part locations and timestamps, through a network of custom designed observation devices; and building a graph-based model to identify events that highlight part interactions and estimate stack formation to search for parts that are not directly observable. By augmenting the site workers and equipment with our wearable devices, we avoid adding additional cognitive effort for the workers. Native building blocks of the graph-based model were evaluated through simulations. Experiments were also conducted in an active shipyard to validate our proposed system.

description: In the Decade since the conception of forest certification, Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) certification has emerged as the most globally recognized scheme. However, the area of FSC certified forests in the highly forested, developing countries of the tropics has remained relatively small small. In this paper, direct and indirect barriers to achieving certification in highly forested (>10 million ha) tropical nations are identified. Direct barriers are defined to be those that alone can stop the establishment of forest certification in a country, whereas indirect barriers negatively impact forest certification. Criteria and indicators for these barriers are developed and used as a tool in determining the presence or absence of each barrier. The analysis indicates that the most significant direct barriers are a lack of land and/or tenure rights; ineffective legislation or policies; poor governance; a weak institutional environment; the cost of certification; and an inability to sell certified forest products. Indirect barriers, such as international influence; political will; consumer buy-in; FSC's mandate and forest management standards, and forest operation size, have hindered certification of forests in the studied countries

description: We compare two methods of stated preference valuation techniques -dichotomous choice contingent valuation and choice experiments – to test for the prevalence of embedding. The test is based on a survey of willingness to pay for the preservation of heath areas in Denmark. Using only one outcome alternative and a status quo in the choice experiment we can compare the two methods using exactly the same estimation procedure. Thereby the differences found can be attributed to the different questioning formats alone. We find differences between the methods, especially regarding the sensitivity to scale.

description: To combat the introduction of exotic pests and pathogens via the trade of plants and wood products, phytosanitary measures have been applied at national and international levels. Over the last decade, the International Plant Protection Convention (IPPC) has established a total of twenty-four International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures (ISPMs) to facilitate the flow of trade whilst secure common and effective actions to prevent the introduction of pests from plants and plant products, and promote appropriate control and eradication measures. These ISPMs are in the general process of being implemented by the IPPC's 144 members at their national levels. The broad context and nature of these ISPMs require both exporters and importers to have up-to-date information from guidelines, systems and requirements, to pest reporting and certification marks. This paper will present a general overview on the role and function of phytosanitary measures in the trade of wood products at both the national and international level. It will examine the impact that specific implemented standards have had on certain wood product industries, using the ISPM No. 15 and its impact on the international trade of wood packaging materials as an example. The paper concludes by addressing the imminent challenges of implementing financially viable bioinvasion prevention strategies at a global level. It will discuss the challenges that these ISPMs can have for developing countries. The overview should yield a deeper understanding into the role of phytosanitary measures and the various challenges that National Plant Protection Organisations (NPPOs) and exporters will face in meeting phytosanitary standards.

description: The paper deals with issues of taxation in relation to decentralisation of forest resources. It presents preliminary empirical data from Tanzania in the form of forest taxation records from 12 villages that have gained jurisdiction over forest products taxation through a decentralisation reform. The analysis shows that (i) decentralisation of forest resources can lead to vast improvements of taxation effectiveness and (ii) taxation of forest products may be regressive or progressive in relation to income distribution. Thus, the effects of increased forest taxation effectiveness on poverty alleviation are ambiguous and highly dependent upon the local pattern of forest utilisation. The indication that forest decentralisation can lead to higher effectiveness in the taxation of forest products contradicts some of the general debate on the effects and potentials of decentralisation on taxation, and, hence, provides an argument for continued decentralisation of natural resources.

description: An experimental study of a granular surface submitted to a circular fluid motion is presented. The appearance of an instability along the sand-water interface is observed beyond a critical radius $r_c$. This creates ripples with a spiral shape on the granular surface. A phase diagram of such patterns is constructed and discussed as a function of the rotation speed $ω$ of the flow and as a function of the height of water $h$ above the surface. The study of $r_c$ as a function of $h$, $ω$ and $r$ parameters is reported. Thereafter, $r_c$ is shown to depend on the rotation speed according to a power law. The ripple wavelength is found to decrease when the rotation speed increases and is proportional to the radial distance $r$. The azimuthal angle \az of the spiral arms is studied. It is found that \az scales with $hωr$. This lead to the conclusion that \az depends on the fluid momentum. Comparison with experiments performed with fluids allows us to state that the spiral patterns are not the signature of an instability of the boundary layer.

description: There has been a constant surge of interest on impact of Genetically Modified Food (GM) on humans, so as to compare its harmful effects with a diet without GM foods. Governments, all over the world, are attempting to assess the risks associated with the release of genetically modified organisms and the marketing of genetically modified food. Though there is now broad scientific consensus that GE crops on the market are safe enough to eat, yet some scientists and advocacy groups such as Greenpeace and World Wildlife Fund have concerns that GM food may not be safe enough and that contemporary testing regimes are not adequate to ensure sufficient safety. There is also a widespread sense that social and technological change is speeding up and people feel powerless to affect this change.

description: This paper deals with rural households’ decision regarding tree planting on farmland in developing countries. This has been the topic of numerous descriptive socio-economic studies. In many cases the findings and claims of these studies are ambiguous, although there is a general agreement about the importance of imperfect markets. In addition, no studies that we know of have formalised the tree planting decision in a prescriptive format. In this paper we develop and evaluate a predictive theoretical rational-behaviour model to explore the tree planting decision that encompasses household factor endowments and market characteristics. We elaborate upon the model characteristics and discuss the strengths and weaknesses of the model. In addition, we assess the data needs for the model and the data availability in a Tanzanian context.

description: Highly energetic, relativistic electrons are commonly present in many astrophysical systems, from solar flares to the intra-cluster medium, as indicated by observed electromagnetic radiation. However, open questions remain about the mechanisms responsible for their acceleration, and possible re-acceleration. Ubiquitous plasma turbulence is one of the possible universal mechanisms. We study the energization of transrelativistic electrons in turbulence using hybrid particle-in-cell, which provide a realistic model of Alfvénic turbulence from MHD to sub-ion scales, and test particle simulations for electrons. We find that, depending on the electron initial energy and turbulence strength, electrons may undergo a fast and efficient phase of energization due to the magnetic curvature drift during the time they are trapped in dynamic magnetic structures. In addition, electrons are accelerated stochastically which is a slower process that yields lower maximum energies. The combined effect of these two processes determines the overall electron acceleration. With appropriate turbulence parameters, we find that superthermal electrons can be accelerated up to relativistic energies. For example, with heliospheric parameters and a relatively high turbulence level, rapid energization to MeV energies is possible.

description: This study was undertaken in 2003-04 to determine the competitiveness of sugarcane production in North West Frontier Province (NWFP) of Pakistan. Another major objective of the study was to determine whether Pakistan qualifies for the export of sugarcane/sugar or should produce sugar as import substitution strategy to ensure food security. The Policy Analysis Matrix (PAM) depicts that sugarcane production is more nationally profitable for import substitution than sugarcane production as export promotion objective. The Domestic Resource Cost (DRC) and Social Benefit-Cost (SBC) analysis also confirm the above analysis of competitiveness of sugarcane production in the project area. This implies that the current sets of sectoral and macroeconomics policies are not consistent with the national policy objectives of agricultural development. The results of PAM analysis suggest that sugarcane could be nationally produced as an import substitution strategy for self-sufficiency, while its production should be discouraged for export purpose. This study further recommends that Pakistan's top management and policy makers should make serious efforts to make both sectoral and macroeconomic policies consistent with national goals of agricultural development, trade and food security.

description: The knowledge of human genome has opened up new avenues for medicine and pharmacology. With genomic secrets in our fold, we have terrific potential for specifically targeted drugs. Considering billions of DNA strands as a normal sequence of letters, diseases are often spelling mistakes. But now, the blueprint of human genome has provided the geneticists with an instant spell-check and have equipped them with tools to correct the error. Therapeutic cloning helps in tissue or organ transplantation by harvesting the stem cells.

Fundamental and higher-order excited modes of radial oscillation of neutron stars for various types of cold nucleonic and hyperonic matter

Subjects: subject: General Relativity and Quantum Cosmology (gr-qc)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: This research paper complements our earlier qualitative study of the effect of viscosity and thermal conductivity on the radial oscillation and relaxation of non-rotating neutron stars. The fundamental and first two lowest-frequency excited modes of radial oscillation have been computed in the high nuclear density regime for a set of seven realistic equations of state (EoS) as functions of central energy density. Various types of zero-temperature EoS of cold nucleonic and hybrid nucleon-hyperon-quark matter models are used in the inner core to determine the internal structure in and around the hydrostatic equilibrium states and investigate the influence of each EoS on the dynamical behaviour of non-rotating neutron stars. We confirm the principal results of earlier, related studies that suggest an underlying correlation between the frequency spectrum of the fundamental oscillation mode and the variation of the adiabatic index over the high nuclear-density regime. We provide valuable information to impose further constraints on the plausible set of realistic EoS models, in addition to the practical applications for the rapidly evolving field of asteroseismology of compact objects.

description: We find the parameters of the MSSM in terms of bulk supergravity fields for the D-brane model of Berenstein, Jejjala and Leigh (hep-ph/0105042). The model consists of a D3-brane at the singularity of a non-abelian orbifold Δ_{27}, which gives the particles of the Supersymmetric Standard Model. We compute the action for the D-brane fields in the presence of both supersymmetric and supersymmetry breaking background fluxes. We get quark, lepton, gaugino, Higgsino, scalar partners and Higgs masses, as well as soft trilinear couplings, as functions of the background fields. This work develops a framework for connecting MSSM phenomenology to brane compactifications.

description: This paper evaluates the different variations of integrated farming that are prevalent in developing countries in Asia. A cross-country comparison was done using productivity analysis on duck-fish integrated farming in India, poultry-fish in Thailand, rice-fish in the Philippines, and crop-livestock-fish-homestead integrated farming in Vietnam. The study findings indicate farmers in Bangladesh could add additional components to their on-going farming practices to increase not only the productivity of land and other inputs but also improve economic conditions.
