description: Packaging logistics addresses the relationship between packaging and logistics within the supply chain context. This paper focuses specifically on the relationship between grocery retailers and their suppliers across several types of pallet systems, as perceived by thirteen U.S. and Canadian retailers. The qualitative research methodology revealed two ways to classify retailers: according to their level of integration with their suppliers, as related to pallet selection and usage; and according to their managerial orientation toward pallets. Cost-oriented and Speed-oriented retailers were found to have different approaches to managing pallets within their distribution networks and across their relationships with suppliers.

description: We report new imaging and spectroscopic observations of the damped Ly alpha (DLA) galaxy SBS 1543+593, a nearby dwarf galaxy whose stellar disk is intersected by the sightline to the bright background QSO HS 1543+5921. Hubble Space Telescope imaging observations with WFPC2 in the F450W and F702W bands are used to measure the DLA galaxy's properties and compile a catalog of its (candidate) HII regions. Ground-based long-slit spectroscopy of the brightest HII region in the galaxy yields estimates of the star formation rate (SFR) and of chemical abundances in the galaxy's interstellar medium. We find that SBS 1543+593 exhibits a SFR $\approx 0.006 h^{-2}_{70} M_{\odot}$ yr$^{-1}$, or a SFR per unit area of $\approx 1.4 \times 10^{-4} h^{-2}_{70} M_\odot$ yr$^{-1}$ kpc$^{-2}$. We derive gas-phase abundances in the ionized gas of $12 + \log {\rm (O/H)} = 8.2 \pm 0.2$, which is about 1/3 of the solar value, and $\log {\rm (N/O)} = -1.40^{+0.2}_{-0.3}$. These values are consistent with the morphologial appearance of SBS 1543+593, an Sm dwarf of $M_B -5 \log h_{70} = -16.8\pm0.2$ and of intermediate surface brightness. SBS 1543+593 is the first {\it bona fide} DLA for which abundances have been measured using emission-line diagnostics. When compared with future, high-resolution, ultraviolet spectroscopy, our results should prove key for interpreting abundance determinations in high redshift DLAs.

description: Reactive metal electrodes (Nb, Ti, Cr, Ta, and Hf) are shown to play an important role in controlling the volatile switching characteristics of metal/Nb2O5/Pt devices. In particular, devices are shown to exhibit stable threshold switching under negative bias but to have a response under positive bias that depends on the choice of metal. Three distinct responses are highlighted: Devices with Nb and Ti top electrodes are shown to exhibit stable threshold switching with symmetric characteristics for both positive and negative polarities; devices with Cr top electrodes are shown to exhibit stable threshold switching but with asymmetric hysteresis windows under positive and negative polarities; and devices with Ta and Hf electrodes are shown to exhibit an integrated threshold-memory (1S1M) response. Based on thermodynamic data and lumped element modelling these effects are attributed to the formation of a metal-oxide interlayer and its response to field-induced oxygen exchange. These results provide important insight into the physical origin of the switching response and pathways for engineering devices with reliable switching characteristics.

description: Using unique data from a pre-mandatory price-reporting period we empirically investigate the effects of beef packer concentration and size efficiencies, packer procurement and pricing methods, and other market variables and quality characteristics on the prices paid by packers for slaughter cattle. We find that packers pay less for fed cattle in more concentrated regions. However, we find that concentration is only one of numerous market factors determining fed-cattle prices and is less important than many. Quality variables controlled by sellers, such as cattle type, are more important in determining the price paid by packers than packer concentration, size economies, procurement methods, or other variables outside seller control. This analysis then offers a set of hypotheses to consider in analyses of the beef packing industry from the post-mandatory price-reporting period.

description: The problem of effective equations is reviewed and discussed. Starting from the classical Langevin equation, we show how it can be generalized to Hamiltonian systems with non-standard kinetic terms. A numerical method for inferring effective equations from data is discussed; this protocol allows to check the validity of our results. In addition we show that, with a suitable treatment of time series, such protocol can be used to infer effective models from experimental data. We briefly discuss the practical and conceptual difficulties of a pure data-driven approach in the building of models.

description: A censored Nonlinear QUAIDS model was applied to estimate Mexican meat demand parameters using annual household survey data for six years from 1992 to 2004. Results suggest that in Mexico and throughout the analyzed period, beef and pork meat were luxury items while chicken was a normal good. Small but not significant changes in meat demand parameters were found after NAFTA implementation, suggesting that changes on consumer behavior might take longer periods to be quantifiable.

description: The current trend for domain-specific architectures (DSAs) has led to renewed interest in research test chips to demonstrate new specialized hardware. Tape-outs also offer huge pedagogical value garnered from real hands-on exposure to the whole system stack. However, successful tape-outs demand hard-earned experience, and the design process is time consuming and fraught with challenges. Therefore, custom chips have remained the preserve of a small number of research groups, typically focused on circuit design research. This paper describes the CHIPKIT framework. We describe a reusable SoC subsystem which provides basic IO, an on-chip programmable host, memory and peripherals. This subsystem can be readily extended with new IP blocks to generate custom test chips. We also present an agile RTL development flow, including a code generation tool calledVGEN. Finally, we outline best practices for full-chip validation across the entire design cycle.

description: The local nonequilibrium quasiparticle distribution function in a normal-metal wire depends on the applied voltage over the wire and the type and strength of different scattering mechanisms. We show that in a setup with superconducting reservoirs, in which the supercurrent and the dissipative current flow (anti)parallel, the distribution function can also be tuned by applying a supercurrent between the contacts. Unlike the usual control by voltage or temperature, this leads to a Peltier-like effect: the supercurrent converts an externally applied voltage into a difference in the effective temperature between two parts of the system maintained at the same potential. We suggest an experimental setup for probing this phenomenon and mapping out the controlled distribution function.

description: This paper investigates solutions of hyperbolic diffusion equations in $\mathbb{R}^3$ with random initial conditions. The solutions are given as spatial-temporal random fields. Their restrictions to the unit sphere $S^2$ are studied. All assumptions are formulated in terms of the angular power spectrum or the spectral measure of the random initial conditions. Approximations to the exact solutions are given. Upper bounds for the mean-square convergence rates of the approximation fields are obtained. The smoothness properties of the exact solution and its approximation are also investigated. It is demonstrated that the Hölder-type continuity of the solution depends on the decay of the angular power spectrum. Conditions on the spectral measure of initial conditions that guarantee short or long-range dependence of the solutions are given. Numerical studies are presented to verify the theoretical findings.

A comparison of the glass former 1,3,5-tri(naphthyl)benzene and the crystalline p-terphenyl hosts for pentacene masers
Creators: name: Nitnara, Supamas
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2020

description: Solid-state masers, hitherto only functional at cryogenic temperatures within a magnetic field, have recently been shown to operate at room temperature and in the earth’s field. One of the key components in the room-temperature solid-state maser that has been developed is a gain medium where the stimulated emission occurs. Unlike the ruby gain medium in conventional masers, the new gain medium is an organic semiconductor co-crystal produced from pentacene doped p-terphenyl. Its excited triplet sublevels are degenerated without applying any magnetic field. Moreover, the population inversion of the uppermost sublevel is very high, leading to higher photon emission at very low doping concentrations. This thesis describes the optimization of the pentacene doping concentration to provide a maximum gain output while maintaining a long relaxation time. Single crystals of pentacene doped p-terphenyl were grown via Bridgman-Stockbarger method at various concentrations. Physical and electrical properties were characterized and the solubility limit of pentacene in p-terphenyl was found to be 2.0 mol\%, while the optimum doping concentration, in terms of crystal perfection and response was at 0.1 mol\%. However, growing organic semiconductors presents certain difficulties – it is a costly and time-consuming process, there is a risk of degrading crystals by heat and oxidisation and the larger crystals produced are imperfect. Here we use 1,3,5-tri (naphthyl) benzene, a glassy, transparent material as a host for the preparation of a gain medium and compare it with a p-terphenyl crystal host. It is found to dissolve pentacene easily and forms a clear glassy solid on rapid cooling. Using a glassy host avoids the lengthy crystal growth process. Using home-built electron paramagnetic resonance apparatus (EPR), a red-shift frequency to 1.426 GHz was observed. This compares with 1.45 GHz from the pentacene doped p-terphenyl. The transition bandwidth due to the inhomogeneous relaxation of pentacene doped 1,3,5-tri (naphthyl) benzene is broader than that of the pentacene doped p-terphenyl and extends to the hydrogen line. EPR results revealed that it has potential to be a gain medium for room-temperature solid-state maser. The development of gain media working at room temperature could pave the way for maser applications in fields such as security, communications as well as deep space communication.

description: Quantum error correction is of crucial importance for fault-tolerant quantum computers. As an essential step towards the implementation of quantum error-correcting codes, quantum non-demolition (QND) measurements are needed to efficiently detect the state of a logical qubit without destroying it. Here we implement QND measurements in a Si/SiGe two-qubit system, with one qubit serving as the logical qubit and the other serving as the ancilla. Making use of a two-qubit controlled-rotation gate, the state of the logical qubit is mapped onto the ancilla, followed by a destructive readout of the ancilla. Repeating this procedure enhances the logical readout fidelity from $75.5\pm 0.3\%$ to $94.5 \pm 0.2\%$ after 15 ancilla readouts. In addition, we compare the conventional thresholding method with an improved signal processing method called soft decoding that makes use of analog information in the readout signal to better estimate the state of the logical qubit. We demonstrate that soft decoding leads to a significant reduction in the required number of repetitions when the readout errors become limited by Gaussian noise, for instance in the case of readouts with a low signal-to-noise ratio. These results pave the way for the implementation of quantum error correction with spin qubits in silicon.

description: This study examines public perceptions of the safety of fresh produce (spinach and lettuce), beef, and poultry, employing survey data collected during the 2006 nationwide recall of fresh spinach contaminated with E. coli O157:H7. The results show that white respondents perceived all products to be safe. In contrast, young people, people with only a high school education, and those with lower household incomes ($50,000 or below), were more likely to view fresh produce, beef, and poultry as unsafe. Trust in the USDA as well as conventional farmers contributed toward more positive perceptions of spinach and lettuce. Low levels of objective knowledge about foodborne pathogens and resulting illnesses contributed to negative food safety perceptions. Efforts should be directed toward additional public education and outreach about general aspects of food safety, especially targeting youth, low income groups, non-whites, and those with education at or below a high school level.

description: We study $D$ and $D_s$ mesons at finite temperature using an effective field theory based on chiral and heavy-quark spin-flavor symmetries within the imaginary-time formalism. Interactions with the light degrees of freedom are unitarized via a Bethe-Salpeter approach, and the $D$ and $D_s$ self-energies are calculated self-consistently. We generate dynamically the $D^*_0(2300)$ and $D_s(2317)$ states, and study their possible identification as the chiral partners of the $D$ and $D_s$ ground states, respectively. We show the evolution of their masses and decay widths as functions of temperature, and provide an analysis of the chiral-symmetry restoration in the heavy-flavor sector below the transition temperature. In particular, we analyse the very special case of the $D$-meson, for which the chiral partner is associated to the double-pole structure of the $D^*_0(2300)$.

description: We formulate a superexchange theory of insulating double-perovskite compounds such as Sr$_2$FeWO$_6$. An effective spin-orbital Hamiltonian is derived in the strong coupling limit of Hubbard model for d-electrons on Fe and W ions. The relevant degrees of freedom are the spins S=2 and the three-fold orbital degeneracy of Fe$^{2+}$-ions. W-sites are integrated out by means of a fourth-order perturbative expansion. The magnetically and orbitally ordered ground states of the effective Hamiltonia n are discussed as a function of the model parameters. We show that for realistic values of such parameters the ground state is antiferromagnetic, as experimentally observed. The order found is of type-II, consisting of \{111\} ferromagnetic planes stac ked antiferromagnetically. The orbital order energy scale found is one order of magnitude less than the spi n one.

description: As in most developing countries, agricultural wholesale markets in China operate under imperfect market conditions. Traders are separated and volatile, information services are unavailable or poor, and formal credit or insurance is unavailable to traders. To deal with these circumstances, some traders have developed working relationships with their customers. This paper addresses the newly established relationships between agricultural traders and their customers within China’s wholesale markets. Important findings of the paper are (1) improved customer relationships lead to higher profits for traders; and (2) improved customer relationships lead traders to increase their use of variable capital, permanent labor, and temporary labor.

description: IgG and IgA antibodies against HIV-1 envelope protein in the absence of infection is well documented in highly exposed seronegative individuals. The origin of these immune responses may be due to cross reactivity with intestinal commensal bacteria or result from ongoing exposure to viral particles. Pre-HIV-1 infection immune responses against envelope glycoproteins may influence the future trajectory of disease. This project aimed to describe anti-HIV-1 gp140 envelope antibody responses in exposed seronegative individuals and track their development before and after HIV-1 infection. I screened sera from a cohort of highly exposed seronegative men who have sex with men with a yeast displayed HIV-1 gp140 envelope antigen fragment library to map discrete epitopes responsible for anti-HIV-1 humoral responses. Using batched seronegative serum aliquots, I found humoral immune responses against V1/V2 and C2 gp120 epitopes, and the C helical region, membrane proximal external region, transmembrane domain and endodomain of gp41. Stratification of cohort according to risk region of acquisition of HIV-1 infection revealed no significant changes in the distribution of envelope epitope detected. Immune response to gp41 envelope epitopes were significantly greater in high risk compared with low risk individuals. Antibody response to HIV-1 gp140 envelope protein were assessed longitudinally in five individuals before and after HIV-1 infection. I showed the same HIV-1 gp140 epitopes were recognized in pre and post seroconversion samples suggesting previous antigen exposure lays a template for future humoral responses. In addition, certain pre-exposure gp140 epitopes had amino sequence similarity to intestinal bacterial antigens. I then used gp140 envelope fragments expressed by yeast cells to isolate single antigen-specific B cells, followed by expression cloning to generate monoclonal envelope antibodies. Antibody dependent cytotoxic function of a single pre-infection monoclonal envelope antibody was assessed. This technology may help increase understanding of humoral immunity to HIV-1.

description: The analysis of anisotropic flow of particles created in high energy heavy-ion collisions gives insight into the early stage of these reactions. Measurements of directed flow (v1), elliptic flow (v2) and flow of 4th and 6th order (v4 and v6) are presented. While the study of v2 for multi-strange particles establishes partonic collectivity the results for higher order anisotropies constrain the initial conditions of hydrodynamic model calculations.

description: China’s vegetable quality and safety controls are being challenged as previously seen in other food industries. This study surveyed 170 vegetable processing firms in Zhejiang, China. We systematically investigated Chinese vegetable processing firms’ current status of quality and safety controls and factors affecting firms’ propensity to invest in food safety controls in the future. This study shows that a processing firm's incentive for food safety and quality control comes directly from its target market but is greatly influenced by governmental financial and technological support; firms’ small scale and low education level of decision makers are obstacles to improving food safety levels.

description: The growing availability of increasingly accurate data on transiting exoplanets suggests the possibility of using these systems as possible testbeds for modified models of gravity. In particular, we suggest that the post-Keplerian (pK) dynamical effects from the perturbations of the Newtonian potential falling off as the square or the cube of the distance from the mass of the host star break the degeneracy of the anomalistic, draconitic and sidereal periods. The latter are characteristic temporal intervals in the motion of a binary system, and all coincide in the purely Keplerian case. We work out their analytical expressions in presence of the aforementioned perturbations to yield preliminary insights on the potential of the method proposed for constraining the modified models of gravity considered. A comparison with other results existing in the literature is made.

description: This work presents advancements in multi-class vehicle detection using UAV cameras through the development of spatiotemporal object detection models. The study introduces a Spatio-Temporal Vehicle Detection Dataset (STVD) containing 6, 600 annotated sequential frame images captured by UAVs, enabling comprehensive training and evaluation of algorithms for holistic spatiotemporal perception. A YOLO-based object detection algorithm is enhanced to incorporate temporal dynamics, resulting in improved performance over single frame models. The integration of attention mechanisms into spatiotemporal models is shown to further enhance performance. Experimental validation demonstrates significant progress, with the best spatiotemporal model exhibiting a 16.22% improvement over single frame models, while it is demonstrated that attention mechanisms hold the potential for additional performance gains.

description: By using the Hamilton-Jacobi [HJ] framework the topological theories associated with Euler and Pontryagin classes are analyzed. We report the construction of a fundamental $HJ$ differential where the characteristic equations and the symmetries of the theory are identified. Moreover, we work in both theories with the same phase space variables and we show that in spite of Pontryagin and Euler classes share the same equations of motion their symmetries are different. In addition, we report all HJ Hamiltonians and we compare our results with other formulations reported in the literature.

description: The number of topological defects created in a system driven through a quantum phase transition exhibits a power-law scaling with the driving time. This universal scaling law is the key prediction of the Kibble-Zurek mechanism (KZM), and testing it using a hardware-based quantum simulator is a coveted goal of quantum information science. Here we provide such a test using quantum annealing. Specifically, we report on extensive experimental tests of topological defect formation via the one-dimensional transverse-field Ising model on two different D-Wave quantum annealing devices. We find that the quantum simulator results can indeed be explained by the KZM for open-system quantum dynamics with phase-flip errors, with certain quantitative deviations from the theory likely caused by factors such as random control errors and transient effects. In addition, we probe physics beyond the KZM by identifying signatures of universality in the distribution and cumulants of the number of kinks and their decay, and again find agreement with the quantum simulator results. This implies that the theoretical predictions of the generalized KZM theory, which assumes isolation from the environment, applies beyond its original scope to an open system. We support this result by extensive numerical computations. To check whether an alternative, classical interpretation of these results is possible, we used the spin-vector Monte Carlo model, a candidate classical description of the D-Wave device. We find that the degree of agreement with the experimental data from the D-Wave annealing devices is better for the KZM, a quantum theory, than for the classical spin-vector Monte Carlo model, thus favoring a quantum description of the device. Our work provides an experimental test of quantum critical dynamics in an open quantum system, and paves the way to new directions in quantum simulation experiments.
Stress Drop Variations in the Region of the 2014 MW8.1 Iquique Earthquake, Northern Chile

description: We compute stress drops from P and S phase spectra for 534 earthquakes in the source region of the 2014 MW8.1 Iquique megathrust earthquake in the northern Chilean subduction zone. An empirical Green's function based method is applied to suitable event pairs selected by template matching of eight years of continuous waveform data. We evaluate the parameters involved in the stress drop estimation, consider the effect of the local velocity structure and apply an empirical linear relation between P and S phase related geometry factors (k values). Data redundancy produced by multiple empirical Green's function and the combination of P and S phase spectra leads to a substantial reduction of uncertainty and robust stress drop estimates. The resulting stress drop values show a well‐defined log‐normal distribution with a median value of 4.36 MPa; most values range between 0.1 and 100 MPa. There is no evidence for systematic large scale lateral variations of stress drop. A detailed analysis reveals several regions of increased median stress drop, an increase with distance to the interface, but no consistent increase with depth. This suggests that fault regime and fault strength have a stronger impact on the stress drop behavior than absolute stresses. Interestingly, we find a weak time‐dependence of the median stress drop, with an increase immediately before the April 1, 2014 MW8.1 Iquique mainshock, a continuous reduction thereafter and a subsequent recovery to average values. Additionally, the data set indicates a relatively strong dependence of stress drop on magnitude which extends over the entire analyzed magnitude range.

description: Twisted, or vortex, particles refer to freely propagating non-plane-wave states with helicoidal wave fronts. In this state, the particle possesses a non-zero orbital angular momentum with respect to its average propagation direction. Twisted photons and electrons have been experimentally demonstrated, and creation of other particles in twisted states can be anticipated. If brought in collisions, twisted states offer a new degree of freedom to particle physics, and it is timely to analyze what new insights may follow. Here, we theoretically investigate resonance production in twisted photon collisions and twisted $e^+e^-$ annihilation and show that these processes emerge as a completely novel probe of spin and parity-sensitive observables in fully inclusive cross sections with unpolarized initial particles. This is possible because the initial state with a non-zero angular momentum explicitly breaks the left-right symmetry even when averaging over helicities. In particular, we show how one can produce almost $100\%$ polarized vector mesons in unpolarized twisted $e^+e^-$ annihilation and how to control its polarization state.

We also describe a particular subtractive renormalization scheme and consider a specific application to a toy-model with a singular potential serving as its effective field theoretical leading-order approximation.
