description: Recent high-angular resolution (40 mas) ALMA observations at 1.14 mm resolve a compact (R~200 au) flattened dust structure perpendicular to the HH 80-81 jet emanating from the GGD 27-MM1 high-mass protostar, making it a robust candidate for a true accretion disk. The jet/disk system (HH 80-81 / GGD 27-MM1) resemble those found in association with low- and intermediate-mass protostars. We present radiative transfer models that fit the 1.14 mm ALMA dust image of this disk which allow us to obtain its physical parameters and predict its density and temperature structure. Our results indicate that this accretion disk is compact (Rdisk~170 au) and massive (5Msun), about 20% of the stellar mass of 20 Msun. We estimate the total dynamical mass of the star-disk system from the molecular line emission finding a range between 21 and 30 Msun, which is consistent with our model. We fit the density and temperature structures found by our model with power law functions. These results suggest that accretion disks around massive stars are more massive and hotter than their low-mass siblings, but they still are quite stable. We also compare the temperature distribution in the GGD 27-MM1 disk with that found in low- and intermediate-mass stars and discuss possible implications on the water snow line. We have also carried about a study of the distance based on Gaia DR2 data and the population of young stellar objects (YSOs) in this region, and from the extinction maps. We conclude that the source distance is in within 1.2 and 1.4 kpc, closer than what was derived in previous studies (1.7 kpc).

description: This paper studies the welfare costs and the redistributive effects of inflation in the presence of idiosyncratic liquidity risk, in a micro-founded search-theoretical monetary model. We calibrate the model to match the empirical aggregate money demand and the distribution of money holdings across households, and study the effects of inflation under the implied degree of market incompleteness. We show that in the presence of imperfect insurance the estimated long-run welfare costs of inflation are on average 40% smaller compared to a complete markets, representative agent economy, and that inflation induces important redistributive effects across households. For example, the welfare gains of reducing inflation from 10% to 0% is 0.59% of income. Furthermore, we estimate that the long-run welfare gains of reducing the typical current inflation target of 2 to 1 percent to be 0.06% of income.
description: Les auteurs étudient les conséquences de l'inflation sur le bien-être et sur la répartition des revenus en présence d'un risque de liquidité idiosyncrasique, dans le cadre d'un modèle monétaire fondé microéconomiquementet et inspiré de la théorie de la recherche. Après avoir étalonné le modèle de façon à reproduire la demande de monnaie totale observée et la répartition des encaisses monétaires entre les ménages, ils examinent les effets de l'inflation compte tenu du degré d'incomplétude implicite des marchés. Ils montrent que, si l'on ne peut s'assurer parfaitement contre les risques, les effets négatifs de l'inflation sur le bien-être en longue période sont en moyenne inférieurs de 40 % à ce qu'ils seraient selon un modèle à agent représentatif et à marchés complets; ils constatent également que l'inflation entraîne une redistribution importante des encaisses entre les ménages. Ainsi, le gain de bien-être réalisé en ramenant l'inflation de 10 % à 0 % représente 0,59 % du revenu. Les auteurs estiment en outre que, si la cible d'inflation était fixée à 1 % au lieu des 2 % habituels, le gain équivaudrait à 0,06 % du revenu.

description: Objectives: To find out the relationship of domestic violence with depression, anxiety and quality of life in married women in hospitals of Rawalpindi and Islamabad. Methods: This co-relational study was conducted in Rawalpindi Institute of Health Sciences from January 2019 to December 2019. All the females’ patients who were the victim of domestic violence were the population of the study. Consecutive non-probability sampling technique was used for selection of sampling from the target population. The inclusion criterion for this study was diagnosed case of domestic violence. DASS 21 (The Depression, Anxiety and Stress Scale) and Quality of life (WHO) scales were administered to 116 patients. Results: The study’s key results were that domestic abuse has positive relationship with depression, anxiety, and stress. It was also found that domestic abuse has a negative relationship with quality of life of those who have been subjected to domestic violence of this sort. Conclusion: It was concluded that domestic violence whether verbal, physical, emotional or sexual has strongly effects the mental health and quality of life of abused women.
title: Driving Forces of the Canadian Economy: An Accounting Exercise
Creators: name: Cociuba, Simona

Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2008

description: This paper analyses the Canadian economy for the post 1960 period. It uses an accounting procedure developed in Chari, Kehoe, and McGrattan (2006). The procedure identifies accounting factors that help align the predictions of the neoclassical growth model with macroeconomic variables observed in the data. The paper finds that total factor productivity and the consumptionleisure trade-off – the productivity and labor factors – are key to understanding the changes in output, labor supply and labor productivity observed in the Canadian economy. The paper performs a decomposition of the labor factor for Canada and the United States. It finds that the decline in the gender wage gap is a major driving force of the decrease in the labor market distortions. Moreover, the milder reduction in the labor market distortions observed in Canada, compared to the US, is due to a relative increase in effective labor taxes in Canada.
description: Les auteurs font appel à la méthode d'analyse des fluctuations conjoncturelles de Chari, Kehoe et McGrattan (2006) pour étudier l'évolution de l'économie canadienne depuis les années 1960. Cette méthode consiste à dégager des facteurs explicatifs en vue de mieux concilier les prévisions du modèle de croissance néoclassique avec le comportement réel des variables macroéconomiques. Les auteurs constatent que la productivité globale des facteurs et l'arbitrage consommation-loisir – les facteurs productivité et travail – sont essentiels à la compréhension des variations de la production, de l'offre de main-d'oeuvre et de la productivité du travail observées au Canada. Ils effectuent une décomposition du facteur travail pour le Canada et les États-Unis. D'après celle-ci, la baisse de l'écart salarial entre les hommes et les femmes explique en bonne partie l'atténuation des distorsions sur le marché du travail. Par ailleurs, le recul moins marqué de ces distorsions dans notre pays par rapport à ce que l'on constate au sud de la frontière tient à une hausse relative du taux d'imposition effectif du revenu du travail au Canada.

description: We have studied the photometric variability of very young brown dwarfs and very low-mass stars (masses well below 0.2 M_sun) in the ChaI star forming region. We have determined photometric periods in the Gunn i and R band for the three M6.5-M7 type brown dwarf candidates ChaHa2, ChaHa3 and ChaHa6 of 2.2 to 3.4 days. These are the longest photometric periods found for any brown dwarf so far. If interpreted as rotationally induced they correspond to moderately fast rotational velocities, which is fully consistent with their v sini values and their relatively large radii. We have also determined periods for the two M5-M5.5 type very low-mass stars B34 and CHXR78C. In addition to the Gunn i and R band data, we have analysed JHK_s monitoring data of the targets, which have been taken a few weeks earlier and confirm the periods found in the optical data. Upper limits for the errors in the period determination are between 2 and 9 hours. The observed periodic variations of the brown dwarf candidates as well as of the T Tauri stars are interpreted as modulation of the flux at the rotation period by magnetically driven surface features, on the basis of a consistency with v sini values as well as (R-i) color variations typical for spots. Furthermore, the temperatures even for the brown dwarfs in the sample are relatively high (>2800K) because the objects are very young. Therefore, the atmospheric gas should be sufficiently ionized for the formation of spots on one hand and the temperatures are too high for significant dust condensation and hence variabilities due to clouds on the other hand.

description: We present a study of the temperature-magnetic field phase diagram of homogeneous and inhomogeneous superconductivity in the case of a quasi-two-dimensional superconductor with an extended saddle point in the energy dispersion under a parallel magnetic field. At low temperature, a huge metastability region appears, limited above by a steep superheating critical field (H_sh) and below by a strongly reentrant supercooling field (H_sc). We show that the Pauli limit (H_p) for the upper critical magnetic field is strongly enhanced due to the presence of the Van Hove singularity in the density of states. The formation of a non-uniform superconducting state is predicted to be very unlikely.

description: It is still a challenge to assess the merger fraction of galaxies at different cosmic epochs in order to probe the evolution of their mass assembly. Using the Illustris cosmological simulations, we investigate the relation between the separation of galaxies in a pair, both in velocity and projected spatial separation space, and the probability that these interacting galaxies will merge in the future. From this analysis, we propose a new set of criteria to select close pairs of galaxies along with a new corrective term to be applied to the computation of the galaxy merger fraction. We then probe the evolution of the major and minor merger fraction using the latest MUSE deep observations over the HUDF, HDFS, COSMOS-Gr30 and Abell 2744 regions. From a parent sample of 2483 galaxies with spectroscopic redshifts, we identify 366 close pairs spread over a large range of redshifts ($0.2

description: Reciprocal space measurements of spin diffusion in a single crystal of calcium fluoride (CaF$_2$) have been extended to dipolar ordered states. The experimental results for the component of the spin diffusion parallel with the external field are $D_{D}^{||}=29 \pm 3 \times 10^{-12}$ cm$^{2}$/s for the [001] direction and $D_{D}^{||}=33 \pm 4 \times 10^{-12}$ cm$^{2}$/s for the [111] direction. The diffusion rates for dipolar order are significantly faster than those for Zeeman order and are considerably faster than predicted by simple theoretical models. It is suggested that constructive interference in the transport of the two spin state is responsible for this enhancement. As expected the anisotropy in the diffusion rates is observed to be significantly less for dipolar order compared to the Zeeman case.

description: The emission of the plerion G21.5-0.9 appears more extended in X rays than in radio. This is an unexpected result because it would imply that short-lived X-ray electrons may reach distances even larger than radio electrons. Applying an empirical relationship between dust scattering optical depth and photoelectric column density, the measured column density leads to a large optical depth at 1 keV, of about 1. Therefore we investigate the hypothesis that the detected halo be an effect of dust scattering, re-analyzing an Cal/PV XMM-Newton observation of G21.5-0.9 and critically examining it in terms of a dust scattering model. We also present a spectral analysis of a prominent extended feature in the northern sector of the halo.

title: Price Level versus Inflation Targeting under Model Uncertainty
Creators: name: Cateau, Gino
Publisher: name: Bank of Canada
Year: 2008

description: The purpose of this paper is to make a quantitative contribution to the inflation versus price level targeting debate. It considers a policy-maker that can set policy either through an inflation targeting rule or a price level targeting rule to minimize a quadratic loss function using the actual projection model of the Bank of Canada (ToTEM). The paper finds that price level targeting dominates inflation targeting, although it can lead to much more volatile inflation depending on the weight assigned to output gap stabilization in the loss function. The price level targeting rule is also found to mimic the full-commitment solution quite well. There is, however, an important difference: the full-commitment solution does not require stationarity in the price-level. The paper then analyzes the extent to which the results are sensitive to Hansen and Sargent (2004) model uncertainty. The paper finds the price level targeting rule to be robust; its performance deteriorates slower than the inflation targeting rule and the absolute decline in performance is small in magnitude.
description: La présente étude apporte une contribution d'ordre quantitatif au débat entourant le choix d'une cible formulée en fonction du taux d'inflation ou du niveau des prix. On y examine le cas d'une banque centrale qui peut poursuivre soit une cible d'inflation, soit une cible de niveau des prix afin de minimiser une fonction de perte quadratique dans le cadre du modèle que la Banque du Canada utilise en pratique pour l'élaboration de ses projections (TOTEM). L'auteur constate qu'un régime ciblant le niveau des prix est supérieur à un régime de cibles d'inflation, même s'il peut s'accompagner d'une bien plus grande volatilité de l'inflation selon l'importance accordée à la stabilité de l'écart de production dans la fonction de perte. Un tel régime produit des résultats similaires à la solution de Ramsey. Une importante différence demeure cependant : la solution de Ramsey ne requiert pas la stationnarité du niveau des prix. L'auteur analyse ensuite le degré de sensibilité des résultats à l'incertitude du modèle (au sens de Hansen et Sargent, 2004). Le régime fondé sur une cible de niveau des prix s'avère robuste; son efficacité baisse plus lentement que celle du régime de cibles d'inflation, et elle ne diminue pas autant en termes absolus.

description: We address the textbook problem of dynamics of a spin placed in a dc magnetic field and subjected to an ac drive. If the drive is polarized in the plane perpendicular to the dc field, the drive photons are resonantly absorbed when the spacing between the Zeeman levels is close to the photon energy. This is the only resonance when the drive is circularly polarized. For linearly polarized drive, additional resonances corresponding to absorption of three, five, and multiple odd numbers of photons is possible. Interaction with the environment causes the broadening of the absorption lines. We demonstrate that the interaction with environment enables the forbidden two-photon absorption. We adopt a model of the environment in the form of random telegraph noise produced by a single fluctuator. As a result of the synchronous time fluctuations of different components of the random field, the shape of the two-photon absorption line is non-Lorentzian and depends dramatically on the drive amplitude. This shape is a monotonic curve at strong drive, while, at weak drive, it develops a two-peak structure reminiscent of an induced transparency on resonance.

description: We compute the optical conductivity of 2D f-wave superconductors and also of the multigap model proposed recently by Zhitomirsky and Rice at T=0K in the Born limit. The presence of interband impurity scattering was found to play an important role: the contributions from the two bands mix up, and new structures are seen in the tunneling density of states and in the optical spectrum as well, corresponding to interband transitions. This will provide a sensitive test in selecting the competing models for the triplet superconductivity in Sr_2RuO_4.

description: We investigate effects of corn-based ethanol plants on local land uses using county-level panel data for Iowa for 1997 through 2009 and an Arellano-Bond difference-generalized method-of-moments estimator. Our results show that ethanol plants have statistically significant effects on the proportion of acres planted to corn in the plants' host counties. Furthermore, ceteris paribus, the land-use-change effect of locally owned plants (owned by local farmers or cooperatives) is about twice as large as the effect of plants with nonlocal owners. Environmental implications of the land-use change effect also are explored.

description: ISOCAM was used to perform a deep survey through three gravitationally lensing clusters of galaxies. Nearly seventy sq. arcmin were covered over the clusters A370, A2218 and A2390. We present maps and photometry at 6.7 & 14.3 microns, showing a total of 145 mid-IR sources and the associated source counts. The 15 micron counts reach the faintest level yet recorded. All sources have counterparts in the optical or near-IR. Models of the clusters were used to correct for the effects of lensing, which increases the sensitivity of the survey. Seven of fifteen SCUBA sources were detected at 15 microns. Five have redshift between 0.23 & 2.8, with a median of 0.9. The field sources were counted to a lensing-corrected sensitivity of 30 microJy at 15 microns, and 14 microJy at 7 microns. The counts, corrected for completeness, contamination by cluster sources and lensing, confirm and extend findings of an excess by a factor of ten in the 15 micron population with respect to source models with no evolution. Source redshifts are mostly between 0.4 and 1.5. For the counts at 7 microns, integrating from 14 microJy to 460 microJy, we resolve 0.49+/-0.2 nW.m^(-2).sr^(-1) of the infrared background light (IBL) into discrete sources. At 15 microns we include the counts from other ISOCAM surveys to integrate from 30 microJy to 50 mJy, two to three times deeper than unlensed surveys, to resolve 2.7+/-0.62 nW.m^(-2).sr^(-1) of the IBL. These values are 10% and 55%, respectively, of the upper limit to the IBL, derived from photon-photon pair production of the TeV gamma rays from BL-Lac sources on the IBL photons. However, recent detections of TeV gamma rays from the z=0.129 BL Lac H1426+428 suggest that the 15 micron background reported implies substantial absorption of TeV photons from that source.

description: We present experimental results on the behaviour of a superconducting YBCO/Au meander of length L submitted to short circuit tests with constant voltage pulses. The meander, at the beginning of the short-circuit, is divided in two regions; one, with a length L1 proportional to the applied voltage, which first switches into a highly dissipative state (HDS) while the rest remains superconducting. Then the rest of the meander will progressively switch into the normal state due to the propagation of this HDS (few m/s) from both ends. The part L1 has to initially support a power density proportional to r.Jp^2 (r is the resistivity of the bilayer and Jp the peak current density). To avoid local excessive dissipation of power and over heating on one part of the wafer in the initial period, we have developed a novel design in order to distribute the dissipating section of the meander into many separated small dissipative zones. Furthermore the apparent propagation velocity of these dissipative zones is increased by the number of propagation fronts. We will show results obtained on 3kW (300V, 10A) FCL on a 2" wafer which confirm the benefits of this new design.

description: Ferromagnetic films of L10-ordered MnGa have shown promise not only in the applications in ultrahigh-density magnetic recording and spintronic memories, oscillators, and sensors, but also in controllable studies of novel electrical transport phenomena. However, the stability of MnGa in chemicals and oxygen plasma that are commonly used in the standard micro-/nano-fabrication process has unsettled. In this work, we report a systematic study on the chemical stability of the MnGa films in acids, acetone, ethanol, deionized water, tetramethylammonium hydroxide (TMAOH) and oxygen plasma. We find that MnGa is very stable in acetone and ethanol, while can be attacked substantially if soaked in TMAOH solution for sufficiently long time. Deionized water and acids (e.g., HCl, H3PO4 and H2SO4 solutions) attack MnGa violently and should be avoided whenever possible. In addition, oxygen plasma can passivate the MnGa surface by oxidizing the surface. These results provide important information for the fabrication and the integration of MnGa based spintronic devices.

description: We collected surveys from 94 greenhouse and nursery growers in three northeastern states to examine factors influencing integrated pest management (IPM) adoption. We constructed three alternative dependent variables describing the extent of IPM adoption and employed discrete choice models to identify factors that affect adoption. We find that operations with more full-time workers are more likely to adopt IPM. Additionally, greenhouse/nursery growers that rank pests as a serious problem are likely to use a wider array of IPM practices. The reliability of IPM practices is critical for adoption. Our analysis highlights differences between self-reported and objective IPM adoption measures.
title: Policy Coordination in an International Payment System

description: Given the increasing interdependence of both financial systems and attendant payment and settlement systems a vital question is what form should optimal policy take when there are two connected payment systems with separate regulators.

In this paper I show that two central banks operating in a non-cooperative way will not have an incentive to achieve the optimal allocation of goods. I further show that this non-cooperative outcome will be supported by a zero intraday interest rate and constant fixed exchange rate. This is in contrast to recent research; which has shown that domestically a zero intraday interest rate will achieve a social optimum and that the central bank has an incentive to achieve it.
description: Étant donné l'interdépendance croissante des systèmes financiers et des systèmes de paiement et de règlement qu'ils englobent, il est primordial de déterminer quelle est la politique monétaire optimale lorsque deux systèmes de paiement interconnectés sont assujettis à la surveillance d'autorités distinctes.

L'auteur montre que, dans un cadre non coopératif, les deux banques centrales n'ont pas intérêt à répartir les biens de façon optimale. Il montre également qu'une répartition non optimale est compatible avec un taux d'intérêt intrajournalier nul et un taux de change fixe. Ce résultat est contraire aux conclusions de travaux récents voulant que le maintien du taux d'intérêt intrajournalier à zéro garantisse la réalisation d'un équilibre socialement optimal et que la banque centrale soit incitée à atteindre cet équilibre.

description: Interactions between vortices in planar superconducting films and a point magnetic dipole placed outside the film, and the creation of vortices by the dipole, are studied in the London limit. The exact solution of London equations for films of arbritrary thickness with a generic distribution of vortex lines, curved or straight, is obtained by generalizing the results reported by the author and E.H. Brandt (Phys. Rev. B {\bf 61}, 6370 (2000)) for films without the dipole. From this solution the total energy of the vortex-dipole system is obtained as a functional of the vortex distribution. The vortex configurations created by the dipole minimize the energy functional. It is shown that the vortex-dipole interaction energy is given by $- {\bf m}\cdot {\bf b^{vac}}$, where ${\bf m}$ is the dipole strength and $ {\bf b^{vac}}$ is the magnetic field of the vortices at the dipole position, and that it can also be written in terms of a magnetic pinning potential acting on the vortices. The properties of this potential are studied in detail. Vortex configurations created by the dipole on films of thickness comparable to the penetration depth are obtained by discretizing the exact London theory results on a cubic lattice and minimizing the energy functional using a numerical algorithm based on simulated annealing. These configurations are found to consist, in general, of curved vortex lines and vortex loops.

description: In this article, we provide a modified argument for proving conditional stability for inverse problems of determining spatially varying functions in evolution equations by Carleman estimates. Our method needs not any cut-off procedures and can simplify the existing proofs. We establish the conditional stability for inverse source problems for a hyperbolic equation and a parabolic equation, and our method is widely applicable to various evolution equations.

description: We present high-resolution imaging and low-resolution spectroscopy of the BL Lac object PKS 0537-441 (z = 0.893) and its environment. The observations were designed to clarify, whether the properties of PKS 0537-441 are affected by gravitational microlensing, or whether PKS 0537-441 and its environment act as a lensing system itself. Our observations show that neither case seems to be likely. We did not find a galaxy along the line-of-sight to the BL Lac as claimed previously, our spectroscopy shows that none of the four closest companion galaxies is at high redshift. Two of the four nearby companion galaxies to PKS 0537-441 are within 200 km/s of the systemic velocity of the BL Lac (z = 0.892 and 0.895, respectively). The third companion galaxy is at higher redshift (z = 0.947). The fourth companion galaxy shows evidence of Mg II absorption redwards of its systemic velocity and is perhaps a mini low ionization BAL QSO at z = 0.885. If the latter can be confirmed, PKS 0537-441 is the first BL Lacertae object being a member of a binary Quasar. We also detected extended [O II] emission in the off-nuclear spectrum of PKS 05371-441, which is most likely due to photoionization from the active nucleus. Alternatively, the extended [O II] emission is due to jet-cloud interaction with the counterjet of PKS 0537-441. Our clustering analysis indicates that PKS 0537-441 is located in a cluster environment as rich as Abell type 0-1. This is supported by the detection of four galaxies in the field with similar redshifts as the BL Lac (Delta z < 0.002). We found serendipitously even more galaxies at somewhat higher redshifts (z = 0.9-1). Thus, PKS0537-441 might be located in front of a galaxy cluster at somewhat higher redshift or even be part of a large-scale structure with an extension towards the BL Lac.

description: We used integral field spectroscopy from CALIFA DR3 and multiwavelength publicly-available data to investigate the star-formation histories of galaxies in the Seyfert's Sextet (SS, HCG 79). The galaxies H79a, H79b, H79c, and H79f have low star-formation rates despite showing strong signs of interaction. By exploring their individual specific star formation histories (sSFH), we identified three earlier episodes of strong star formation common to these four galaxies. We use the last two episodes as markers of the epochs when the galaxies were crossing. We suggest that after the first turn-around, initially gas-rich galaxies crossed for the first time, consuming most of their gas. Hence after the second turn-around most mergers from second crossings would be mixed or dry. The exception would be gas-rich galaxies intruding for the first time. Therefore, we suggest that SS galaxies have survived one crossing during a Hubble time. Strong Balmer absorption lines and the presence of counter-rotating disks provide independent bounds to the second and first crossing, respectively. This scenario provides a plausible way out of the short crossing time paradox.

description: This study estimates how potential carbon policies targeted at reduction of greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions could affect selection of rice cultivars by conducting a life cycle assessment of GHG emissions and estimating the carbon sequestered for fourteen commonly sown rice cultivars across Arkansas. Market-oriented carbon-offset credits based on additionality likely would be insufficient to convince producers to change cultivars; nonetheless, there may be upstream pressure as food retailers strive to lower their overall carbon footprints. Given their higher yield per unit of GHG emission, hybrid rice cultivars appear to be positioned to respond to industry demand.

description: We investigate the critical properties of d-dimensional magnetic systems with quenched extended defects, correlated in $ε_d$ dimensions (which can be considered as the dimensionality of the defects) and randomly distributed in the remaining $d-ε_d$ dimensions; both in the case of fixed dimension d=3 and when the space dimension continuously changes from the lower critical dimension to the upper one. The renormalization group calculations are performed in the minimal subtraction scheme. We analyze the two-loop renormalization group functions for different fixed values of the parameters $d, ε_d$. To this end, we apply the Chisholm-Borel resummation technique and report the numerical values of the critical exponents for the universality class of this system.

title: Empirical Likelihood Block Bootstrapping

description: Monte Carlo evidence has made it clear that asymptotic tests based on generalized method of moments (GMM) estimation have disappointing size. The problem is exacerbated when the moment conditions are serially correlated. Several block bootstrap techniques have been proposed to correct the problem, including Hall and Horowitz (1996) and Inoue and Shintani (2006). We propose an empirical likelihood block bootstrap procedure to improve inference where models are characterized by nonlinear moment conditions that are serially correlated of possibly infinite order. Combining the ideas of Kitamura (1997) and Brown and Newey (2002), the parameters of a model are initially estimated by GMM which are then used to compute the empirical likelihood probability weights of the blocks of moment conditions. The probability weights serve as the multinomial distribution used in resampling. The first-order asymptotic validity of the proposed procedure is proven, and a series of Monte Carlo experiments show it may improve test sizes over conventional block bootstrapping.
description: Les simulations de Monte-Carlo montrent bien que les tests asymptotiques fondés sur la méthode des moments généralisés ont un niveau peu satisfaisant. Ce défaut s'accentue dès lors que les conditions de moments sont autocorrélées. Pour surmonter cette difficulté, plusieurs techniques de rééchantillonnage par blocs ont été mises en avant, notamment par Hall et Horowitz (1996) ainsi que par Inoue et Shintani (2006). Les auteurs proposent ici une technique de rééchantillonnage par blocs faisant appel à une méthode empirique de vraisemblance qui permet d'améliorer la qualité des inférences dans les modèles caractérisés par des conditions de moments non linéaires autocorrélées et d'ordre peut-être infini. Conjuguant les démarches de Kitamura (1997) et de Brown et Newey (2002), ils estiment par la méthode des moments généralisés des paramètres qui leur serviront ensuite à calculer, au moyen de la méthode de vraisemblance utilisée, les probabilités associées aux blocs des conditions de moments. De ces probabilités, ils tirent la distribution multinomiale employée dans le rééchantillonnage. Les auteurs démontrent la validité asymptotique au premier ordre de leur technique, qui peut améliorer le niveau des tests par rapport à la technique classique de rééchantillonnage par blocs, comme le révèle une série de simulations de Monte-Carlo.
A Linear Evolution for Non-Linear Dynamics and Correlations in Realistic Nuclei

description: A new approach to high energy evolution based on a linear equation for QCD generating functional is developed. This approach opens a possibility for systematic study of correlations inside targets, and, in particular, inside realistic nuclei. Our results are presented as three new equations. The first one is a linear equation for QCD generating functional (and for scattering amplitude) that sums the 'fan' diagrams. For the amplitude this equation is equivalent to the non-linear Balitsky-Kovchegov equation. The second equation is a generalization of the Balitsky-Kovchegov non-linear equation to interactions with realistic nuclei. It includes a new correlation parameter which incorporates, in a model dependent way, correlations inside the nuclei. The third equation is a non - linear equation for QCD generating functional (and for scattering amplitude) that in addition to the 'fan' diagrams sums the Glauber-Mueller multiple rescatterings.
