description: Optimal capital structure is one of the more important decisions farmers make. This study quantitatively examines how optimal capital structure may change as land quality changes. Results suggest that farmers on poor quality land will raise more hogs and own less farmland if the increased riskiness of marginal land is not bid into the mean returns to assets.
PDF uncertainties in Higgs production at hadron colliders

Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Phenomenology (hep-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: Using the new schemes provided by the CTEQ and MRST collaborations and by Alekhin, we analyse the uncertainties due to the parton distribution functions (PDFs) on the next-to-leading-order cross sections of the four main production processes of the Standard Model Higgs boson at the LHC and the Tevatron. In the Higgs mass range where the production rates are large enough, the spread in the uncertainties when the three sets of PDFs are compared is of about 15% in all processes and at both colliders. However, within one given set of PDFs, the deviations from the values obtained with the reference sets are much smaller, being of ${\cal O}(5$%), except in the gluon--gluon fusion mechanism at relatively large Higgs boson masses, where they can reach the level of 10% (15%) at the LHC (Tevatron).

Bosonic string theory in background fields by canonical methods
Creators: name: Sazdovic, Branislav
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2003
Subjects: subject: High Energy Physics - Theory (hep-th)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: We investigate classical dynamics of the bosonic string in the background metric, antisymmetric and dilaton fields. We use canonical methods to find Hamiltonian in terms of energy-momentum tensor components. The later are secondary constraints of the theory. Due to the presence of the dilaton field the Virasoro generators have nonlinear realization. We find that, in the curve space-time, opposite chirality currents do not commute. As a consequence of the two-dimensional general covariance, the energy-momentum tensor components satisfy two Virasoro algebras, even in the curve space-time. We obtain new gauge symmetry which acts on both world-sheet and space-time variables, and includes world-sheet Weyl transformation. We emphasize that background antisymmetric and dilaton fields are the origin of space-time torsion and space-time nonmetricity, respectively.

title: Ecological and agronomic aspects of a pear and vegetable interculture system
Creators: name: Newman, S. M.
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1983

description: The objectives of this study were to characterise the productivity and resource use efficiency of an experimental interculture system and to develop methods for the evaluation and optimisation of interculture. The experimental system consisted of a mature pear orchard intercropped vegetables. The first experiment used a phytometer technique in order to evaluate the response of a range of understorey vegetables (carrot, onion, pea, radish and lemon balm) to the aerial environment created/modified by the trees. The main conclusion was that most vegetables could be intercropped given a suitable soil environment. Some changes in crop morphology were identified in positions directly under the canopy. Radish was selected for further study. Novel techniques for the measurement of the transmissivity of the tree canopy to photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) were developed and tested. The canopy was found to be around 70% transmissive when averaged over the orchard floor. Areas directly under the canopy received around 50% of the incoming radiation. The response of radish to various levels of PAR was characterised using a shade experiment. A 50% reduction in PAR resulted and a 65% reduction in yield measured as mean bulb diameter but did not affect the mean total dry weight of the plants. This was due to the plants partitioning proportionately more dry matter to the leaves. A few individual plants, when grown at 30% PAR had bulb diameters equivalent to the 100% mean. This was taken as an indication of the potential for increasing yields by genotype selection. The land equivalents ratio for the system when calculated indicated that 50-100% more land would be required in order to obtain the same yield from monocultures, depending on the spatial arrangement selected. The radish component did underyield in positions directly beneath the canopy. Experiments with artificial fertiliser (NPK) and shade indicated that PAR intensity coupled with some soil factor other than NPK concentration were implicated.

description: Sensitive photon detection in the gigahertz band constitutes the cornerstone to study different phenomena in astronomy, such as radio burst sources, galaxy formation, cosmic microwave background, axions, comets, gigahertz-peaked spectrum radio sources and supermassive black holes. Nowadays, state of the art detectors for astrophysics are mainly based on transition edge sensors and kinetic inductance detectors. Overall, most sensible nanobolometers so far are superconducting detectors showing a noise equivalent power (NEP) as low as 2x10-20 W/Hz1/2. Yet, fast thermometry at the nanoscale was demonstrated as well with Josephson junctions through switching current measurements. In general, detection performance are set by the fabrication process and limited by used materials. Here, we conceive and demonstrate an innovative tunable Josephson escape sensor (JES) based on the precise current control of the temperature dependence of a fully superconducting one-dimensional nanowire Josephson junction. The JES might be at the core of future hypersensitive in situ-tunable bolometers or single-photon detectors working in the gigahertz regime. Operated as a bolometer the JES points to a thermal fluctuation noise (TFN) NEP_TFN 1x10-25 W/Hz1/2, which as a calorimeter bounds the frequency resolution above 2 GHz, and resolving power below 40 at 50 GHz, as deduced from the experimental data. Beyond the obvious applications in advanced ground-based and space telescopes for gigahertz astronomy, the JES might represent a breakthrough in several fields of quantum technologies ranging from subTHz communications and quantum computing to cryptography and quantum key distribution.

description: Data storage requirements and management services are topics of interest in academic libraries and computing centers. Many academic institutions' libraries have undertaken surveys of faculty in an effort to determine attitudes and needs for data storage and management. Our institution's E-Science Working Group conducted a similar survey, extending it beyond faculty to also include graduate students, post-doctorates and research staff.

A survey of data management practices across the entire university including all disciplines was designed in late 2013 using Qualtrics survey software. The survey was distributed via email link to approximately 12,900 email addresses at the university in January 2014 and was closed in February 2014. The group analyzed the results in spring 2014 utilizing Atlas.ti and Qualtrics analytics.

The survey received 831 responses with 788 responders completing the survey.  Results reveal that users at Northwestern University are uncertain of how much data storage they will need in the future, have a strong desire for instruction and services surrounding data management practices and that there is a trend toward a data sharing culture at the institution. Based on analysis of the data management survey, it appears that there is no consensus on exactly how to store, share or manage data. Even more striking is the observation that the understanding of what constitutes "data" can be widely interpreted, depending on academic discipline.

description: The use of polymer blends is an effective method for altering the performance of polymer materials and is widely employed in engineering plastics, rubber, and fibermaterials. Elastomeric blends are used for many reasons such as lowering the compound cost, for ease of fabrication and to improve the performance of the industrial rubber. In this study, 20 different rubber compounds were prepared by using SMR-20 type of natural rubber and SBR-1502 type of styrene–butadiene rubber in different levels (0, 25, 50, 75 and 100 pphr) and each recipe reinforced with carbonblack at different ratio (20, 40, 60 and 80) pphr (part per hundred). The physical properties – such as thermal conductivity, thermal diffusivity, swelling and specificgravity were studied. The results show that the thermal conductivity and thermal diffusivity increased with increase of loading level of carbon black and these properties decreased with the increase of NR to SBR. The swelling property in this work measured by change in mass method by immersed the samples in oil and water. The swelling in water more than in oil, change in mass of the NR/SBR blends increased with immersing time increase and decreased with carbon black increment, and with the increment of NR percentages to SBR. The specific gravity increased with increase of carbon black loading for all recipes.

Specifically, this study estimates an inverse hyperbolic sine transformation of crop yields in the southeastern United States.
title: Dual exchange rate systems
Creators: name: Brenton, A.R.
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1987

description: This thesis is in two chapters. The first surveys the existing literature on 'dual exchange rate systems' — where current and capital transactions are channeled through seperate foreign exchange markets. The early, comparative static, models concentrate on whether the instruments of demand management will work, and conclude that under dual regimes, unlike with fixed or floating unified rates, both fiscal and monetary policy can he effective. Later, dynamic, models focus on the impact of exogenous capital flows (usually represented by external interest rate movements) on economies with dual systems. The process of expectations formation proves crucial - so rational expectations appear naturally in a crop of papers whose shared conclusion is that a dual system entirely insulates the domestic economy from the effects of such flows. Finally, there have been studies of dual systems in practice. Their chief conclusion is that the benefits have been more questionable than theory would suggest. The rational expectations model of a dual exchange market described in Chapter II goes beyond previous models in a number of ways. It permits precise comparison of the insulation properties of dual rates with those of other regimes. It allows for Government intervention between the two exchange markets under a dual regime. And it analyses the case where only imperfect information is available on the movements of external variables. The chief results are that for an open economy producing a differentiated product a dual system is likely to be more effective than either fixed or floating rates in insulating domestic activity from external interest rate movements (although perfect insulation is not achieved), and no less effective in insulating it from external price changes. This remains true when only imperfect information is available and also (although diminishingly so) when the Government intervenes between the exchange markets for capital and current transactions.

ELIZABETH CADY STANTON, SELF SOVEREIGN: A BIOGRAPHY BASED ON SOCIAL LEARNING THEORY
Creators: name: Griffith, Elisabeth
Publisher: name: American University
Year: 2023

description: Elizabeth Cady Stanton (1815-1902) was the principal philosopher of the first women's movement in America. She initiated the suffrage crusade with her 1848 Seneca Falls Declaration and expanded its scope with demands for divorce, property rights, coeducation, and equal wages. Wealthy, intellectual, energetic, and engaging, this mother of seven disguised her radical ideology beneath a quick wit and a matronly appearance. Always controversial, she opposed black suffrage unless women were also enfranchised. She culminated her feminist career by publishing the Woman's Bible, an attack on the use of Scripture to confine women to a domestic sphere and second-class citizenship. Stanton summarized her political ideology in "The Solitude of Self," her valedictory address, asserting that women, like men, had only themselves to rely upon. Therefore women must make themselves emotionally, intellectually, financially, physically, and legally independent. Stanton achieved such "self sovereignty" in her own life. By the 1890s, she no longer depended on anyone else. The Woman's Bible was her last act of defiance; she remained undaunted. This biography examines the development of Stanton's private feminist identity and her public feminist ideology. To analyze the steps she took, this study employs social learning theory, a psychological model. According to this theory, Stanton "learned" independence: she observed it, practiced it, was capable of undertaking it, was approved by people whose approval she valued, was satisfied by it, and chose to maintain it even when a majority criticized her. A series of male and female role models and mentors in Stanton's life provided examples of independent action for her to emulate and encouraged her efforts in that direction. As Stanton matured, she gained greater confidence in her independence and became increasingly self-reliant. The satisfaction she derived from her behavior prompted her to maintain it, until in her old age, she had outdistanced all of her models to become truly "self sovereign.".

description: Recent observations of global velocity gradients across and along molecular filaments have been interpreted as signs of gas accreting onto and along these filaments, potentially feeding star-forming cores and proto-clusters. The behavior of velocity gradients in filaments, however, has not been studied in detail, particularly on small scales (< 0.1 pc). In this paper, we present MUFASA, an efficient, robust, and automatic method to fit ammonia lines with multiple velocity components, generalizable to other molecular species. We also present CRISPy, a Python package to identify filament spines in 3D images (e.g., position-position-velocity cubes), along with a complementary technique to sort fitted velocity components into velocity-coherent filaments. In NGC 1333, we find a wealth of velocity gradient structures on a beam-resolved scale of ~0.05 pc. Interestingly, these local velocity gradients are not randomly oriented with respect to filament spines and their perpendicular, i.e., radial, component decreases in magnitude towards the spine for many filaments. Together with remarkably constant velocity gradients on larger scales along many filaments, these results suggest a scenario in which gas falling onto filaments is progressively damped and redirected to flow along these filaments.

The mechanical properties – such as tensile strength, tensile modulus at 100% elongation, elongation at break, hardness, wear and resilience were studied. The results show that the tensile modulus at 100% elongation (MOD 100) and ultimate tensile strength increase with increasing of carbon black loading level and maximum value was achieved at 60 pphr (carbon black), while elongation at break decreased with increasing of carbon black loading for all recipes. All these properties increased with increasing of NR to SBR. The hardness and wear properties of the NR/SBR blends with the increment of SBR percentages and carbon black loading level were greatly enhanced. The resilience decrease with increase of carbon black loading for all recipes and with the increase of SBR to NR.

Orbital and spin correlations in Ca$_{2-x}$Sr$_x$RuO$_4$: A mean field study

Subjects: subject: Strongly Correlated Electrons (cond-mat.str-el)

description: The alloy Ca$_{2-x}$Sr$_x$RuO$_4$ exhibits a complex phase diagram with peculiar magnetic metallic phases. In this paper some aspects of this alloy are discussed based on a mean field theory for an effective Kugel-Khomskii model of localized orbital and spin degrees of freedom. This model results from an orbital selective Mott transition which in the three-band system localized two orbitals while leaving the third one itinerant. Special attention is given to the region around a structure quantum phase transition at $ x \approx 0.5 $ where the crystal lattice changes from tetragonal to orthorhombic symmetry while leaving the system metallic. This transition yields, a change from ferromagnetic to antiferromagnetic spin correlations. The complete mean field phase diagram for this transition is given including orbital and spin order. The anisotropy of spin susceptibility, a consequence of spin-orbit coupling and orbital correlation, is a tell-tale sign of one of these phases. In the predominantly antiferromagnetic phase we describe a metamagnetic transition in a magnetic field and show that coupling of the itinerant band to the localized degrees of freedom yields an anomalous longitudinal magnetoresistance transition. Both phenomena are connected with the evolution of the ferromagnetic and antiferromagnetic domains in the external magnetic field and agree qualitatively with the experimental findings.

description: This research concerns the effect wage employment for women, with the accompanying potential for economic independence, has on women's status in the domestic domain. The data were collected during 10 months fieldwork in Kisumu, Kenya, during 1980. The primary methodology was participant observation supplemented with interviews with a 10 percent sample of the women in modern sector jobs. Kisumu offers an increasing number of jobs for women because it is a center of education and social services for the surrounding rural area. Most of the women are Luo, who comprise 85 percent of Kisumu's population. Other sources of data include divorce records, life histories, bank records, students' essays, and personnel records of large employers of women. Data were collected on migration, household composition, work history, and marital status. Luo men traditionally have power over their wives because they own the land on which women depend for survival. They also have custody of children by virtue of paying brideprice. Supernatural sanctions reinforce the cultural value of the passive, reproductive role for women. In Kisumu, even though women may have cash incomes, they remain dependent on their husbands for social status. There is no approved social niche for unmarried women. Husbands have rights to privacy and social interactions which women lack. These male privileges are part of a powerful set of symbols which, along with the right to beat one's wife, legitimize men's position as household heads with authority over their wives. Alternatives to marriage for women and few and not attractive. For women with little education, becoming a housegirl or a bargirl are the primary options. A few women take their grievances against their husbands to court and obtain divorces and custody of their children on grounds not allowed under customary law. It is concluded that while access to economic resources is a necessary first step in changing women's status, it is not enough. When women lack alternative mole models and when female submissivity is prized, then women are likely to share men's values concerning the subordination of women, and women's status in the domestic sphere remains low.

description: This research concerns the effect wage employment for women, with the accompanying potential for economic independence, has on women's status in the domestic domain. The data were collected during 10 months fieldwork in Kisumu, Kenya, during 1980. The primary methodology was participant observation supplemented with interviews with a 10 percent sample of the women in modern sector jobs. Kisumu offers an increasing number of jobs for women because it is a center of education and social services for the surrounding rural area. Most of the women are Luo, who comprise 85 percent of Kisumu's population. Other sources of data include divorce records, life histories, bank records, students' essays, and personnel records of large employers of women. Data were collected on migration, household composition, work history, and marital status. Luo men traditionally have power over their wives because they own the land on which women depend for survival. They also have custody of children by virtue of paying brideprice. Supernatural sanctions reinforce the cultural value of the passive, reproductive role for women. In Kisumu, even though women may have cash incomes, they remain dependent on their husbands for social status. There is no approved social niche for unmarried women. Husbands have rights to privacy and social interactions which women lack. These male privileges are part of a powerful set of symbols which, along with the right to beat one's wife, legitimize men's position as household heads with authority over their wives. Alternatives to marriage for women and few and not attractive. For women with little education, becoming a housegirl or a bargirl are the primary options. A few women take their grievances against their husbands to court and obtain divorces and custody of their children on grounds not allowed under customary law. It is concluded that while access to economic resources is a necessary first step in changing women's status, it is not enough. When women lack alternative mole models and when female submissivity is prized, then women are likely to share men's values concerning the subordination of women, and women's status in the domestic sphere remains low.
Pentaquark states in a chiral potential

description: We discuss a possible interpretation for the pentaquark baryon $Θ^+$ which has an exotic quantum number of strangeness $S = +1$. The role of the pion which modifies the structure of single-particle levels of quarks is examined. When the pion field is sufficiently strong, the ground state of five quarks for $Θ^+$ acquires positive parity. If this is the case, an excited state may appear slightly above the ground state with negative parity.

description: Atheta (Acrotona) wachteli spec. nov.
(Figs 9, 41–42)
 Type material: Holotype  Australia, Queensland, Mt. Tambourine, 5.iii.1997, leg. Wachtel (CSCÜ).
 Description: Length 2.1 mm. Body shiny, yellowish-red, head and posterior half of elytra reddish-brown, fourth free abdominal tergite of the male brown, antennae brown with the two basal antennomeres yellow, legs yellow. Eyes as long as the postocular region in dorsal view. Second antennomere shorter than the first one, third shorter than the second one, fourth to tenth transverse. Body devoid of reticulation. Head dotting close and superficial, that of pronotum and elytra close and evident. Granulation of the abdomen close and salient. Tergites with basal transverse sulci.Aedeagus as in Figs 41–42.
 Comparative notes: The new species differs from A. fieldimontis PACE, 2005 from Tasmania in the aedeagus shape, which is feebly curved to the ventral side, while it is strongly curved in fieldimontis, in its very long “crista proximalis”, whereas it is short in fieldimontis and in the apex of the aedeagus, in ventral view, being broad and not narrow as in fieldimontis. Pronotum is yellowish-red in the new species, reddish-brown in fieldimontis.
 Etymology: The new species is dedicated to its collector Wachtel.

title: DOUBLE INTEGRATION USING CUBIC SPLINES
Creators: name: Williams, R
Publisher: name: The Open University
Year: 1983

description: This dissertation applies the approximation methods of the cubic spline and the bicubic spline to the problem of integration in two dimensions. The dissertation is divided into six sections. Section 1 is the Introduction and contains background material concerning the historical introduction and theory of the cubic spline together with a resume of what i t is intended to achieve in the body of the dissertation. Section, 2 contains a description of the derivation of the tradit­ional algorithm for computing a one dimensional cubic spline approximation to a function f(x) and then we integrate this cubic spline to find an approximation to the integral of f(x). In Section 3 we express the integral of a function f(x) as a function of its upper limit and then fit a one dimensional cubic spline to this integral directly. In Section 4 we apply the methods of Sections 2 and 3 to evaluate integral approximations to functions of two variables. In Section 5 we fit a Bicubic Spline to the mesh values of a function of two variables over a rectangular mesh and integrate this bicubic spline approximation to give an approximate value of the double integral of the function. Section 6 contains the conclusions drawn from the proceeding computations

description: Gamma-ray emitting narrow-line Seyfert 1 ($γ$-NLS1) galaxies possibly harbour relatively low-mass black holes (10$^6$-10$^8$ M$_{\odot}$) accreting close to the Eddington limit, and share many characteristics with their sibling sources, flat-spectrum radio quasars. Although they have been detected in the MeV--GeV band with Fermi-LAT, they have never been seen in the very high energy band with current imaging atmospheric Cherenkov telescopes (IACTs). Thus, they are key targets for the next-generation IACT, the Cherenkov Telescope Array (CTA). In a previous work we selected, by means of extensive simulations, the best candidates for a prospective CTA detection (SBS 0846$+$513, PMN J0948$+$0022, and PKS 1502$+$036) taking into account the effects of both the intrinsic absorption (approximated with a cut-off at 30 GeV), and the extra-galactic background light on the propagation of $γ$-rays. In this work we simulate the spectra of these three sources by adopting more realistic broad-line region (BLR) absorption models. In particular, we consider the detailed treatment of $γ$-$γ$ absorption in the radiation fields of the BLR as a function of the location of the $γ$-ray emission region with parameters inferred from observational constraints. We find that, due to the energy range extent and its sensitivity, CTA is particularly well suited to locate the $γ$-ray emitting region in $γ$-NLS1. In particular CTA will be able not only to distinguish whether the $γ$-ray emitting region is located inside or outside the BLR, but also where inside the BLR it may be.

description: This research deals with the study the effect of adding the silica particles and alumina particles separately with different ratio (5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 pphr) on the hardness and wear rate of natural rubber NR and styrene butadiene rubber SBR. The results show that the hardness increases with the increase the loading level of reinforcing particles, while the wear rate decreases with the increase the loading level of the reinforcing particles. The largest value of the hardness and the lowest value of the wear rate were for styrene butadiene reinforced with 25 pphr of silica as compared withnatural rubber. Also the reinforcing by SiO2 increases the hardness and decreases the wear rate more than of Al2O3.

description: We report the scaling relations derived by fitting the X-ray parameters determined from analyzing the XMM-Newton observations of 120 galaxy clusters in the Planck Early Sunyaev-Zel'dovich sample spanning the redshift range of 0.059$$3$σ$) of the $M_{tot}$-$T$ relation, pointing to an increase of the kinetic-to-thermal energy ratio with redshift. This is consistent with a scenario in which higher redshift clusters are on average more disturbed than their lower redshift counterparts.

Risk and Uncertainty

description: This meeting is the final one of Regional Research Project 5-232. As no new regional project is being initiated currently by the members of this Project, this meeting appears to terminate regional research on production risk. This project was preceded by two other regional research projects on risk- W-'149 and S-180 - with considerable overlapping membership. The members of 5-232 have elected to apply for an Information Exchange Group that will continue the tradition of annual meetings on risk in agricultural production. The contributions of these three regional projects are worth noting and that is the purpose of this paper and the others associated with this panel di~ssion. This discussion first briefly discusses the context of the beginning of these regional projects. The focus of the projects is then discussed, and major accomplishments overviewed. Then, the emergence of interests in environmental and resource economics, the focus of the proposed Information Exchange Groups, is reviewed. The final section briefly reviews continued issues for future research.

Lo si sottolinea per evitare di fraintendere il ‘Khnum Khufu’ che compare in una pubblicazione del 2022 ed in un libro del 2023 come il nome della piramide. Sia la pubblicazione che il libro di C. Malanga e F. Biondi mostrano un “three-dimensional (3D) model of Khnum-Khufu” con una rete di numerose camere e gallerie. La piramide è Akhet Khufu, dove Akhet indica lo spirito luminoso di Cheope.
