THE DETERMINANTS AND IMPACTS OF INCOME DIVERSIFICATION IN RURAL ETHIOPIA: THE CASE OF COMMUNITTIES IN SOUTHERN NATIONS, NATIONALITIES, AND PEOPLES REGIONAL STATE
Creators: name: DEMISSIE DAMITE
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2003

description: This study examines the determinants and impacts of rural household income diversification.

The analysis of this study is based on data taken from “Ethiopian Rural Households

Surveys”(1997 and 1999) conducted by the Department of Economics, Addis Ababa

University. To analyse the determinants of household's choice among different livelihood

strategies and the level of income diversity, multinomial logit model that corrects selection

bias was estimated for five distinct livelihood strategies. The effects of income diversification

on rural equity and consumption insurance against idiosyncratic income shock were analysed

using Gini decomposition technique and linear regression model, respectively.

The results indicated that the asset endowment of the household has a significant effect on

households’ choice of livelihood strategy and the level of income diversity. They also show

that the effect of asset on livelihood choice and income diversity is dependent on the type of

asset as well as on the particular livelihood strategy.

Interference mechanism of magnetoresistance in variable range hopping conduction: the effect of paramagnetic electron spins and continuous spectrum of scatterer energies
Creators: name: Shumilin, A. V.
name: Kozub, V. I.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Disordered Systems and Neural Networks (cond-mat.dis-nn)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Despite the fact that the problem of interference mechanism of magnetoresistance in semiconductors with hopping conductivity was widely discussed, most of existing studies were focused on the model of spinless electrons. This model can be justified only when all electron spins are frozen. However there is always an admixture of free spins in the semiconductor. This study presents the theory of interference contribution to magnetoresistance that explicitly includes effects of both frozen and free electron spins. We consider the cases of small and large number of scatterers in the hopping event. For the case of large number of scatterers the approach is used that takes into account the dispersion of the scatterer energies. We compare our results with existing experimental data.

description: We report on the search for the Standard Model Higgs boson decaying into two photons based on proton-proton collision data with a center-of-mass energy of 7 TeV recorded by the ATLAS experiment at the LHC. The dataset has an integrated luminosity of about 1.08 fb-1. The expected cross section exclusion at 95% confidence level varies between 2.0 and 5.8 times the Standard Model cross section over the diphoton mass range 110 - 150 GeV. The maximum deviations from the background-only expectation are consistent with statistical fluctuations.

Chirality of High Latitude Filaments over Solar Cycle 23

Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Solar and Stellar Astrophysics (astro-ph.SR)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: A non-potential quasi-static evolution model coupling the Sun's photospheric and coronal magnetic fields is applied to the problem of filament chirality at high latitudes. For the first time, we run a continuous 15 year simulation, using bipolar active regions determined from US National Solar Observatory, Kitt Peak magnetograms between 1996 and 2011. Using this simulation, we are able to address the outstanding question of whether magnetic helicity transport from active latitudes can overcome the effect of differential rotation at higher latitudes. Acting alone, differential rotation would produce high latitude filaments with opposite chirality to the majority type in each hemisphere. We find that differential rotation can indeed lead to opposite chirality at high latitudes, but only for around 5 years of the solar cycle following the polar field reversal. At other times, including the rising phase, transport of magnetic helicity from lower latitudes overcomes the effect of in situ differential rotation, producing the majority chirality even on the polar crowns at polar field reversal. These simulation predictions will allow for future testing of the non-potential coronal model. The results indicate the importance of long-term memory and helicity transport from active latitudes when modeling the structure and topology of the coronal magnetic field at higher latitudes.

Analytical expressions for the deprojected Sérsic model - II. General expressions in terms of the Fox H function
Creators: name: Baes, M.

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2011
Subjects: subject: Cosmology and Nongalactic Astrophysics (astro-ph.CO)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The Sérsic model is the de facto standard to describe the surface brightness distribution of hot stellar systems. An important inconvenience of this analytical model is that the corresponding luminosity density and associated properties cannot be expressed using elementary functions or even standard special functions. We present a set of compact and elegant analytical expressions for the luminosity density, cumulative luminosity and potential for the Sérsic model in terms of the Fox H function for general values of the Sérsic index. Furthermore, we present explicit series expansions of these quantities and discuss the asymptotic behaviour. Our analysis completes the work of Mazure & Capelato (2002) and Baes & Gentile (2011) and demonstrates the power of the underestimated Fox H function as a tool for analytical work.

On the X-ray Baldwin Effect in Active Galactic Nuclei Observed by the Chandra High Energy Grating

description: Using Chandra High Energy Grating (HEG) observations of 32 AGNs, we present a systematic study of the X-ray Baldwin effect (XBE, i.e. the anti-correlation between narrow Fe Kα line EW and X-ray continuum luminosity for AGN samples) with the highest spectral resolution currently available. We have previously reported an anti-correlation with EW\proptoL(2-10 keV)^-0.22 in a HEG sample, and the correlation is much weaker after averaging multiple observations of individual AGNs (EW\proptoL(2-10 keV)^-0.13). This indicates that rapid variation in X-ray continuum plays an important role in producing the XBE, and such an effect should also be visible in individual AGNs. In this paper, by normalizing the line EWs and continuum luminosities to the time-averaged values for each AGN in our sample with multiple HEG observations, we find a strong anti-correlation between EW and Lx (EW/\propto (L/)^-0.82+/-0.10), consistent with the XBE expected in an individual AGN if the narrow line flux remains constant while the continuum varies. This is first observational evidence that the Fe Kα line flux in a large sample of AGNs lacks of a corresponding response to the continuum variation, supporting that the narrow Fe-K line emission originates from a region far from the nucleus. We then performed Monte-Carlo simulations to address whether the global XBE can be produced by X-ray continuum variation solely, and found that such interpretation of XBE cannot be ruled out statistically. One thus should be very cautious before reaching any scientific conclusion based on an observed XBE.

Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2012
Subjects: subject: Hardware Architecture (cs.AR)
subject: FOS: Computer and information sciences

description: The performance of an on-chip interconnection architecture used for communication between IP cores depends on the efficiency of its bus architecture. Any bus architecture having advantages of faster bus clock speed, extra data transfer cycle, improved bus width and throughput is highly desirable for a low cost, reduced time-to-market and efficient System-on-Chip (SoC). This paper presents a survey of WISHBONE bus architecture and its comparison with three other on-chip bus architectures viz. Advanced Micro controller Bus Architecture (AMBA) by ARM, CoreConnect by IBM and Avalon by Altera. The WISHBONE Bus Architecture by Silicore Corporation appears to be gaining an upper edge over the other three bus architecture types because of its special performance parameters like the use of flexible arbitration scheme and additional data transfer cycle (Read-Modify-Write cycle). Moreover, its IP Cores are available free for use requiring neither any registration nor any agreement or license.

Literature in Italian

description: Translation studies has recently been elevated to a prestigious and noteworthy position in literary scholarship. We can understand the place of translation in literary scholarship from a perspective that stresses the necessity of avoiding the interpretation of specific literature and language in the Arab world. Various publishers in the Arab world have taken different positions on the question of literary translation. This paper sheds light on the condition and place of translated Italian literature in the Arab world by analyzing a database of Italian literature published in Arabic and the policies of two key Arab publishing firms. It examines (a) how foreign language learning is associated with spectacle in the Arab world, and (b) how the mechanisms by which publishing firms operate impact the position of Italian literature in the Arab world. It critically gauges the translation of the Italian language and literature in Arabic higher education. This study contributes to the literature by placing emphasis on the issue that is experienced by most publishing firms besides attaining a concept associated with the intermediate translation to be regarded as a savior.

description: Geometrical frustration is a central challenge in contemporary condensed matter physics, a crucible favourable to the emergence of novel physics. The pyrochlore magnets, with rare earth magnetic moments localized at the vertices of corner-sharing tetrahedra, play a prominent role in this field, with a rich variety of exotic ground states ranging from the "spin ices" \hoti\ and \dyti\ to the "spin liquid" and "ordered spin ice" ground states in \tbti\ and \tbsn. Inelastic neutron scattering provides valuable information for understanding the nature of these ground states, shedding light on the crystal electric field (CEF) level scheme and on the interactions between magnetic moments. We have performed such measurements with unprecedented neutron flux and energy resolution, in the "ordered spin ice" \tbsn. We argue that a new interaction, which involves the spin lattice coupling through a low temperature distortion of the trigonal crystal field, is necessary to account for the data.
Mott transition of fermionic mixtures with mass imbalance in optical lattices

description: We investigate the effect of mass imbalance in binary Fermi mixtures loaded in optical lattices. Using dynamical mean-field theory, we study the transition from a fluid to a Mott insulator driven by the repulsive interactions. For almost every value of the parameters we find that the light species with smaller bare mass is more affected by correlations than the heavy one, so that their effective masses become closer than their bare masses before a Mott transition occurs. The strength of the critical repulsion decreases monotonically as the mass imbalance grows so that the minimum is realized when one of the species is localized. The evolution of the spectral functions testifies that a continuous loss of coherence and a destruction of the Fermi liquid occur as the imbalance grows. The two species display distinct properties and experimentally-observable deviations from the behavior of a balanced Fermi mixture.

Forty-ninth Annual Exhibition 1941, National Association Women Painters and Sculptors
Creators: name: No Name Supplied
Publisher: name: No Publisher Supplied
Year: 1941

description: The National Association of Women Artists (NAWA) was established in 1889 and is the oldest professional women's fine arts organization in the United States. NAWA's mission is to promote awareness of, and interest in, visual art created by women in the United States. As part of this effort NAWA holds an annual exhibition of works by members of the association and publishes an exhibition catalog to accompany or commemorate the annual exhibitions. These catalogs not only function as an exhibition catalog, but also as a document that summarizes the structure, membership, and activities of the association.Information that can be found in these catalogs includes lists of officers, members of the executive board and committees, prize winners, lists of exhibitor and members, and images of some of the artwork exhibited. Catalogs from the 2000s also include information on NAWA events and activities beyond the annual exhibition.Please note that the numbering of the annual catalogs was adjusted in 1960 and again in 1971. For example, NAWA designated the annual exhibition in 1960 as the 70th Anniversary Exhibition after 1959 was the 67th Annual Exhibition. These adjustments appear to have been made to reflect the date of the founding of the association, so that, by 1989, the annual exhibition commemorated the 100-year anniversary of the founding of NAWA in 1889.

description: The electron-phonon interaction is of central importance for the electrical and thermal properties of solids, and its influence on superconductivity, colossal magnetoresistance, and other many-body phenomena in correlated-electron materials is currently the subject of intense research. However, the non-local nature of the interactions between valence electrons and lattice ions, often compounded by a plethora of vibrational modes, present formidable challenges for attempts to experimentally control and theoretically describe the physical properties of complex materials. Here we report a Raman scattering study of the lattice dynamics in superlattices of the high-temperature superconductor $\bf YBa_2 Cu_3 O_7$ and the colossal-magnetoresistance compound $\bf La_{2/3}Ca_{1/3}MnO_{3}$ that suggests a new approach to this problem. We find that a rotational mode of the MnO$_6$ octahedra in $\bf La_{2/3}Ca_{1/3}MnO_{3}$ experiences pronounced superconductivity-induced lineshape anomalies, which scale linearly with the thickness of the $\bf YBa_2 Cu_3 O_7$ layers over a remarkably long range of several tens of nanometers. The transfer of the electron-phonon coupling between superlattice layers can be understood as a consequence of long-range Coulomb forces in conjunction with an orbital reconstruction at the interface. The superlattice geometry thus provides new opportunities for controlled modification of the electron-phonon interaction in complex materials.

description: We measure the pressure dependence of the electrical resistivity and the crystal structure of iron superconductor Sr2VO3FeAs. Below ~10 GPa the structure compresses but remains undeformed, with regular FeAs4 tetrahedrons, and a constant Tc. Beyond 10GPa, the tetrahedron strongly distorts, while Tc goes gradually to zero. Band structure calculations of the undistorted structure show multiple nesting features that hinder the development of an antiferromagnetic ground state (AF), allowing the appearance of superconductivity. The deformation of the tetrahedra that breaks band degeneracy degrades multiple nesting, thus favouring one particular AF state at the expense of Tc.

Starting from an integral representation of the spectral zeta function, we find its analytic continuation by exploiting the WKB asymptotic expansion of the eigenfunctions of the Laplace operator on $M$ for which a detailed analysis is presented. We apply the obtained results to the explicit computation of the zeta regularized functional determinant and the coefficients of the heat kernel asymptotic expansion.

description: The epidemic spreading on arbitrary complex networks is studied in SIR (Susceptible Infected Recovered) compartment model. We propose our implementation of a Naive SIR algorithm for epidemic simulation spreading on networks that uses data structures efficiently to reduce running time. The Naive SIR algorithm models full epidemic dynamics and can be easily upgraded to parallel version. We also propose novel algorithm for epidemic simulation spreading on networks called the FastSIR algorithm that has better average case running time than the Naive SIR algorithm. The FastSIR algorithm uses novel approach to reduce average case running time by constant factor by using probability distributions of the number of infected nodes. Moreover, the FastSIR algorithm does not follow epidemic dynamics in time, but still captures all infection transfers. Furthermore, we also propose an efficient recursive method for calculating probability distributions of the number of infected nodes. Average case running time of both algorithms has also been derived and experimental analysis was made on five different empirical complex networks.

description: We demonstrate the coupling of bright and dark Surface Lattice Resonances (SLRs), which are collective Fano resonances in 2D plasmonic crystals. As a result of this coupling, a frequency stop-gap in the dispersion relation of SLRs is observed. The different field symmetries of the low and high frequency SLR bands lead to pronounced differences in their coupling to free space radiation. Standing waves of very narrow spectral width compared to localized surface plasmon resonances are formed at the high frequency band edge, while subradiant damping onsets at the low frequency band edge leading the resonance into darkness. We introduce a coupled oscillator analog to the plasmonic crystal, which serves to elucidate the physics of the coupled plasmonic resonances and to estimate very high quality factors (Q>700) for SLRs, which are the highest known for any 2D plasmonic crystal.

description: We consider optimal control of a multi-class queue in the Halfin--Whitt regime, and revisit the notion of asymptotic optimality and the associated optimality gaps. The existing results in the literature for such systems provide asymptotically optimal controls with optimality gaps of $o(\sqrt{n})$ where $n$ is the system size, for example, the number of servers. We construct a sequence of asymptotically optimal controls where the optimality gap grows logarithmically with the system size. Our analysis relies on a sequence of Brownian control problems, whose refined structure helps us achieve the improved optimality gaps.

description: To survey social workers in the field of traumatic brain injury (TBI)/acquired brain injury (ABI) about their practice in conducting psychosocial assessments. Design: A cross-sectional quality assurance study. A cross-sectional quality assurance study. Social workers from professional social work rehabilitation networks spanning Sweden, the United Kingdom, North America, and Asia Pacific regions. Purpose-designed survey comprising closed and open items, organized into six sections and administered electronically. The 76 respondents were mainly female (65/76, 85.5%) from nine countries (majority from Australia, United States, Canada). Two-thirds of respondents were employed in outpatient/ community settings (51/76, 67.1%), with the balance working in inpatient/rehabilitation hospital settings. Over 80% of respondents conducted psychosocial assessments, with the assessments informed by a systemic focus, situating the individual within their broader family and societal networks. The top five issues identified in inpatient/rehabilitation settings were housing related needs, informed consent for treatment, caregiver support, financial issues and navigating the treatment system. In contrast, the leading issues identified in community settings related to emotional regulation, treatment resistance and compliance issues, depression, and self-esteem. Social workers assessed a broad range of psychosocial issues spanning individual, family, and environmental contextual factors. Findings will contribute to future development of a psychosocial assessment framework.

description: The motion of dark striations across bright filaments in a sunspot penumbra has become an important new diagnostic of convective gas flows in penumbral filaments. The nature of these striations has, however, remained unclear. Here we present an analysis of small scale motions in penumbral filaments in both simulations and observations. The simulations, when viewed from above, show fine structure with dark lanes running outwards from the dark core of the penumbral filaments. The dark lanes either occur preferentially on one side or alternate between both sides of the filament. We identify this fine structure with transverse (kink) oscillations of the filament, corresponding to a sideways swaying of the filament. These oscillations have periods in the range of 5-7 min and propagate outward and downward along the filament. Similar features are found in observed G-band intensity time series of penumbral filaments in a sunspot located near disk center obtained by the Broadband Filter Imager (BFI) on board {\it Hinode}. We also find that some filaments show dark striations moving to both sides of the filaments. Based on the agreement between simulations and observations we conclude that the motions of these striations are caused by transverse oscillations of the underlying bright filaments.

description: In high energy Heavy Ion Collisions, the onset of the quark-gluon plasma is the colour glass condensate, dominated by gluons. The final state is hadronic, and dominated by pions and kaons. Here we investigate an effective approach of QCD with these bosonic fields and which can help to describe the transition of gluons into light mesons. Formally, our approach consists in integrating out the quark fields from the QCD path integral, utilizing auxiliary fields. In this way the fermionic fields are replaced by light mesons, such as the pions and sigma field. We apply our effective action to compute the number of pions and kaons per gluon emitted by a Boltzmann gluon gas, their multiplicities as function of a gluon mass. We conclude that an effective gluon mass remains finite at T=Tc.

description: The COVID-19 pandemic triggered an unprecedented rise in mortality that translated into life expectancy losses around the world, with only a few exceptions. We estimate life expectancy changes in 29 countries since 2020 (including most of Europe, the United States and Chile), attribute them to mortality changes by age group and compare them with historic life expectancy shocks. Our results show divergence in mortality impacts of the pandemic in 2021. While countries in western Europe experienced bounce backs from life expectancy losses of 2020, eastern Europe and the United States witnessed sustained and substantial life expectancy deficits. Life expectancy deficits during fall/winter 2021 among people ages 60+ and <60 were negatively correlated with measures of vaccination uptake across countries (r60+ = -0.86; two-tailed P < 0.001; 95% confidence interval, -0.94 to -0.69; r<60 = -0.74; two-tailed P < 0.001; 95% confidence interval, -0.88 to -0.46). In contrast to 2020, the age profile of excess mortality in 2021 was younger, with those in under-80 age groups contributing more to life expectancy losses. However, even in 2021, registered COVID-19 deaths continued to account for most life expectancy losses.

description: We introduce a novel method for local structure determination with a spatial resolution of the order of 0.01 Angstroem. It can be applied to materials containing clusters of exchange-coupled magnetic atoms. We use neutron spectroscopy to probe the energies of the cluster excitations which are determined by the interatomic coupling strength J. Since for most materials J is related to the interatomic distance R through a linear relation dJ/dR=α (for dR/R<<1), we can directly derive the local distance R from the observed excitation energies. This is exemplified for the mixed one-dimensional paramagnetic compound CsMnxMg1 xBr3 (x=0.05, 0.10) containing manganese dimers oriented along the hexagonal c-axis. Surprisingly, the resulting Mn-Mn distances R do not vary continuously with increasing internal pressure, but lock in at some discrete values.

description: We study the asymmetric Hubbard model at half-filling as a generic model to describe the physics of two species of repulsively interacting fermionic cold atoms in optical lattices. We use Dynamical Mean Field Theory to obtain the paramagnetic phase diagram of the model as function of temperature, interaction strength and hopping asymmetry. A Mott transition with a region of two coexistent solutions is found for all nonzero values of the hopping asymmetry. At low temperatures the metallic phase is a heavy Fermi-liquid, qualitatively analogous to the Fermi liquid state of the symmetric Hubbard model. Above a coherence temperature, an orbital-selective crossover takes place, wherein one fermionic species effectively localizes, and the resulting bad metallic state resembles the non-Fermi liquid state of the Falicov-Kimball model. We compute observables relevant to cold atom systems such as the double occupation, the specific heat and entropy and characterize their behavior in the different phases.

description: Given self-adjoint operators $A, B\in\mathbb{B}(\mathscr{H})$ it is said $A\leq_uB$ whenever $A\leq U^*BU$ for some unitary operator $U$. We show that $A\leq_u B$ if and only if $f(g(A)^r)\leq_uf(g(B)^r)$ for any increasing operator convex function $f$, any operator monotone function $g$ and any positive number $r$. We present some sufficient conditions under which if $B\leq A\leq U^*BU$, then $B=A=U^*BU$. Finally we prove that if $A^n\leq U^\ast A^nU$ for all $n\in\mathbb{N}$, then $A=U^\ast AU$.

description: We describe an implementation of the Farfel Fortran AD extensions. These extensions integrate forward and reverse AD directly into the programming model, with attendant benefits to flexibility, modularity, and ease of use. The implementation we describe is a "prepreprocessor" that generates input to existing Fortran-based AD tools. In essence, blocks of code which are targeted for AD by Farfel constructs are put into subprograms which capture their lexical variable context, and these are closure-converted into top-level subprograms and specialized to eliminate EXTERNAL arguments, rendering them amenable to existing AD preprocessors, which are then invoked, possibly repeatedly if the AD is nested.
