description: Concerns about environmental degeneration due to excessive use of chemical fertilizers and pesticides have grown as farmers have increased reliance on these chemicals to maintain or increase crop yields. Although there are a variety of governmental programs that encourage farmers to adopt practices using less fertilizers and pesticides, many growers continue using conventional production methods in part because the economic benefits of using more environmentally sensitive techniques remains unproven or elusive for farmers. Exploring consumer willingness to pay (WTP) for fresh produce carrying labels describing various environmental benefits is one important aspect in assessing the potential that growers will adopt environmentally sound production techniques. Given that sustainable production practices may have different environmental benefits, differentiating consumer WTP for specific benefits may provide critical information for developing more effective labels and help growers more appropriately label products produced with environmental friendly techniques.

description: In dieser Arbeit wird der Entwicklungsprozess von Hartz IV zum Bürgergeld machtkritisch mit gouvernementalistischen Analyseinstrumenten nach Foucault beleuchtet. Es werden im Hinblick von Kosten-Nutzen-Kalkülen im Bürgergeld Machtverhältnisse zwischen staatlicher Sozialpolitik, Jobcenter und Bevölkerung untersucht. Die Analyse von Machtverhältnissen legt hier eine kontraktualistische Rationalität offen, die den sozialpolitischen Maßnahmen inhärent ist und die eine Verlagerung von der Fremdführung zur Selbstführung der Individuen mit sich zieht. Bei der Beschreibung der abgelösten und aktuellen Form des Arbeitslosengeldes II als Forschungsgegenstand zeigt sich, dass das Bürgergeld einer großen Sozialstaatsreform nicht gerecht wird und die Unterschiede zu Hartz IV unwesentlich in den analysierten Strukturen ersichtlich werden.
The X-ray surface brightness profiles of hot galaxy clusters up to z~0.8: evidence for self-similarity and constraints on Omega_0

description: We study the ROSAT surface brightness profiles of a sample of 25 distant (0.33.5keV) clusters. For both open and flat cosmological models, the derived emission measure profiles are scaled according to the self-similar model of cluster formation. We use the standard scaling relations of cluster properties with z and temperature, with the empirical slope of the Mgas-T relation derived by Neumann & Arnaud (2001). Using a χ^2 test, we perform a quantitative comparison of the scaled emission measure profiles of distant clusters with a reference profile derived from the sample of 15 hot nearby clusters compiled by Neumann & Arnaud (1999), which were found to obey self-similarity. For a low density flat universe, the distant cluster scaled data were found to be consistent, both in shape and normalisation, with the reference local profile.It indicates that hot clusters constitute a homologous family up to high z, and supports the standard picture of structure formation for the dark matter component. Because of the intrinsic regularity in the hot cluster population, the scaled profiles can be used as distance indicators, the correct cosmology being the one for which the profiles at different redshifts coincide. The present data allow us to put a tight constraint on Omega0 for a flat Universe: Omega0=0.40^{+0.15}_{-0.12} at 90% confidence level (statistical errors only). The critical model was excluded at the 98% confidence level. Consistently, the observed evolution of the normalisation of the Lx-T relation was found to comply with the self-similar model for Omega0=0.4, Lambda=0.6. The constraint derived on Omega0 is in remarkable agreement with the constraint obtained from SNI or from combined analysis of the power spectrum of the 2dFGRS and the CMB anisotropy. ABRIDGED

description: We show that after mapping each element of a set of second class constraints to the surface of the other ones, half of them form a subset of abelian first class constraints. The explicit form of the map is obtained considering the most general Poisson structure. We also introduce a proper redefinition of second class constraints that makes their algebra symplectic.

description: Road accident statistics are collected from information about personal injury road accidents and their consequent casualties, to a common national standard. The aim of collecting and publishing national road accident statistics is to inform public debate and to provide the basis for determining and monitoring effective road safety policies to reduce the road accident casualty toll. They are an essential requirement for monitoring targeted reductions in road accident casualties. The credible monitoring of targeted reductions requires that data are reported consistently and accurately, and both national and local government, and local reporting police forces, work closely to achieve a common reporting standard.

Users should note that for 1985-1991, and from 2002 onwards, the Vehicle Record file does not contain breath test data. This change has been made in order to protect confidentiality.

Data for 1985-1990 were deposited at the Archive at the beginning of 2006. Prior to this, the Archive only held the Road Accident Data series from 1991 onwards. No extra documentation was available for the 1985-1990 data, so users are advised to consult the documentation for the 1991 survey.

Further information about the Road Accident Data series and research based on it may be found on the government road accidents and safety statistics webpages.

These studies comprise information gathered using STATS19 and STATS20 forms.

 The second edition of the dataset (May 2001) includes information on location of accident (Easting/Northing, Road Number etc.) not previously deposited with the UK Data Archive. For full details of changes, please see READ file and documentation.

description: Innovation-spurred growth in oil and gas production from shale formations led the U.S. to become the global leader in producing oil and natural gas. Because most shale is on private lands, drilling companies must access the resource through private lease contracts that provide a share of the value of production – a royalty – to mineral owners. We investigate the competitiveness of leasing markets by estimating how much mineral owners capture geologically-driven advantages in well productivity through a higher royalty rate. We estimate that the six major shale plays generated $39 billion in private royalties in 2014, however, extraction firms capture most of the benefit from resource abundance, with a doubling of the ultimate recovery of the average well in a county leading to a 2 percentage point increase in the average royalty rate (an 11 percent increase). The low pass-through is consistent with firms exercising market power in private leasing markets.

description: We discuss gravitational perturbations in the Randall-Sundrum two branes model with radius stabilization. Following the idea by Goldberger and Wise for the radius stabilization, we introduce a scalar field which has potentials localized on the branes in addition to a bulk potential. In our previous paper we discussed gravitational perturbations induced by static, spherically symmetric and nonrelativistic matter distribution on the branes under the condition that the values of the scalar field on the respective branes cannot fluctuate due to its extremely narrow brane potentials. We call this case the strong coupling limit. Our concern in this paper is to generalize our previous analysis relaxing the limitation of taking the strong coupling limit. We find that new corrections in metric perturbations due to relaxing the strong coupling limit enhance the deviation from the 4D Einstein gravity only in some exceptional cases. In the case that matter fields reside on the negative tension brane, the stabilized radion mass becomes very small when the new correction becomes large.

Violation of the consistency relations for large-scale structure with dark energy

description: We study infrared effects in perturbation theory for large-scale structure coupled to the effective field theory of dark energy, focusing on, in particular, Degenerate Higher-Order Scalar-Tensor (DHOST) theories. In the subhorizon, Newtonian limit, DHOST theories introduce an extra large-scale velocity $v^i_π$ which is in general different from the matter velocity $v^i$. Contrary to the case in Horndeski theories, the presence of this extra large-scale velocity means that one cannot eliminate the long-wavelength effects of both $v^i$ and $v^i_π$ with a single coordinate transformation, and thus the standard $Λ$CDM consistency relations for large-scale structure are violated by terms proportional to the relative velocity $v^i - v^i_π$. We show, however, that in non-linear quantities this violation is determined by the linear equations and the symmetries of the fluid system. We find that the size of the baryon acoustic oscillations in the squeezed limit of the bispectrum is modified, that the bias expansion contains extra terms which contribute to the squeezed limit of the galaxy bispectrum, that infrared modes in the one-loop power spectrum no longer cancel, and that the equal-time double soft limit of the tree-level trispectrum is non-vanishing. In addition, we give explicit expressions for how these violations depend on the relative velocity. Many of our computations are also relevant for perturbation theory in $Λ$CDM with exact time dependence.

description: This paper reports results from an analysis of residential property sales in a high environmental amenity region of Washington State characterized increasingly by water scarcity problems. Kittitas County sits on the dry Eastern side of the Cascade Mountains and is in close proximity to the greater Seattle metropolitan area. While water law restricts any additional uses of water without purchasing an existing water right there was a domestic well exemption until 2009 that allowed wells to be dug without acquiring a right. This exemption became increasingly controversial as the number of new homes in rural areas increased in the 1990’s and 2000’s. A moratorium was put in place in 2009 that removed this exemption but was only applied to the upper half of the county. We exploit this fact to use a difference-in-difference estimation strategy that helps remove other unobserved factors that would make a more straightforward hedonic analysis difficult. Our goal in estimating the hedonic regression is to estimate the impact of the moratorium under the idea that the value of water is capitalized into home prices following 2009. We compare sales of properties with a house and those without a house to provide a robustness check. A so-called difference-in-difference-in-difference model is estimated which provides additional controls thanks to the fact that the moratorium did not directly affect houses in municipalities which always had to acquire a water right. Our results are important in the development of water markets in the state which are an efficient way to reallocate water from low to high value uses, but are only just beginning to be used in the region.

Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

Moreover, we show that the pure braid groups associated with hyperbolic nonorientable surfaces are left-orderable.

description: Applying coherent X-rays by the method of atomic-scale X-ray Photon Correlation Spectroscopy results in beam-induced dynamics in a number of oxide glasses. Here these studies are extended to rubidium and caesium borates with varying alkali contents. While no cumulative beam damage is observed, the observed rate of structural rearrangements shows a linear relation to the dose rate. In agreement with the increasing glass transition temperature, the rate of dynamics at given dose rate decreases with increasing alkali content, while the shape of the decay of correlations becomes progressively stretched. This behavior is explained in terms of faster dynamics of the alkali positions compared to the borate network. Finally, the q-dependent behavior of the correlation decay rate implies the observed dynamics to proceed via small-scale atomic displacements subject to de Gennes narrowing.

description: Logit and probit models are designed to estimate latent variable models. However, there are cases that these estimates are used, even though the latent variable is fully observable. The most prominent examples are studies about obesity, where they calculate BMI based on two observed variables: weight and height squared. They translate BMI into a binary variable (e.g. obese or not obese) and this index is used to examine factors affecting obesity. This study determines the loss in efficiency of using logit/probit models versus the conventional OLS (e.g. with unknown variance). We also compare the marginal effects between these models. The results suggest that OLS is a more efficient than the logit/probit models when estimating the true coefficients, regardless of the multicollinearity, fit of regression and cut-off probability. Likewise, OLS provided unbiased marginal effects compared to both binary response models. It is also less likely to be biased. We can conclude, that according to our Monte Carlo simulation, when the latent variable is observable, it is better to use the continous value and regress it with respect to their explanatory variable instead of converting it into a latent variable.

description: Sometimes people, when comparing themselves with others, take a host of actions that are destructive to those around them, even when these actions imply self-inflicted costs. "Pulling down" other more successful individuals may have both direct and indirect detrimental effects on productivity and efficiency. On one hand, welfare is reduced directly as output is destroyed, and indirectly if their threat induces ex-ante behavioral responses in the form of lower levels of effort and investment. Consequently, linking reactions to upward social comparisons and their effect on effort levels may help explain the considerable variability in how people have been shown to react to such comparisons. In this paper, I develop a two-stage, two-agent model of strategic behavior that integrates the role of inter-personal comparisons with conventional neoclassical economic preference theory to analyze how interpersonal comparisons lead to destructive behavior and affect levels of effort. The experiment, designed to test the predictions of the model and tease out the mechanisms that drive destructive behavior, builds on the two-stage "money burning" game. The experimental games were carried out in Bolivia among 285 dairy farmers. Results show that people that were above the within-group mean, in average exert less effort when comparing themselves with others (the "guilt" case); while people below the within-group mean exert more effort (the "keep-up-with-the-Joneses" case). People who fear the envy of others decrease their effort exerted, specially if they are highly ranked. Results from the money burning game show that people below the mean took in average more destructive behavior than people above the mean. Of all the participants, 55% took at least one destructive action against somebody in their group reducing their output by 34%. People seem to be averse to disadvantageous inequalities, but not averse to advantageous inequalities. Moreover, people destroy less the bigger the advantageous difference is but destroy more in the oposite case.

description: We have found correlations between properties of the equation of state for stellar matter with a phase transition at supernuclear densities and two characteristic features of a "phase diagram" for rotating compact stars in the angular velocity - baryon number plane: 1) the critical dividing line between mono- and two-phase star configurations and 2) the maximum mass line. The second line corresponds to the minimum mass function for black hole candidates whereas the first one is observable by a population statistics, e.g. for Z-sources in low-mass X-ray binaries. The observation of a population gap in the mass distribution for the latter is suggested as an astrophysical verification of the existence of a first order phase transition in QCD at high densities such as the deconfinement.

description: Analysis of invasion front has been widely used to decipher biological properties, as well as the growth dynamics of the corresponding populations. Likewise, the invasion front of tumors has been investigated, from which insights into the biological mechanisms of tumor growth have been gained. We develop a model to study how tumors' invasion front depends on the relevant properties of a cellular environment. To do so, we develop a model based on a nonlinear reaction-diffusion equation, the Fisher-Kolmogorov-Petrovsky-Piskunov (FKPP) equation, to model tumor growth. Our study aims to understand how heterogeneity in the cellular environment's stiffness, as well as spatial correlations in its morphology, the existence of both of which has been demonstrated by experiments, affects the properties of tumor invasion front. It is demonstrated that three important factors affect the properties of the front, namely, the spatial distribution of the local diffusion coefficients, the spatial correlations between them, and the ratio of the cells' duplication rate and their average diffusion coefficient. Analyzing the scaling properties of tumor invasion front computed by solving the governing equation, we show that, contrary to several previous claims, the invasion front of tumors and cancerous cell colonies cannot be described by the well-known models of kinetic growth, such as the Kardar-Parisi-Zhang equation.

description: Im Rahmen des Sexologiestudiums habe ich mich in der wissenschaftlichen Arbeit mit dem Thema „Frühkindliche psychosexuelle Entwicklung im ersten Lebensjahr“ 3 beschäftigt, um ein vertiefendes Wissen zur psychosexuellen Entwicklung zu erhalten und eine Grundlage für die vorliegende Arbeit zu gestalten. Durch meine Recherchen in der wissenschaftlichen Arbeit hat sich für mich verdeutlicht, dass die Verbindung zwischen frühkindlicher Entwicklung und psychosexueller Entwicklung entsteht, indem das Kind seine grundsätzlich mit Geburt vorhandenen Fähigkeiten in allen Bereichen nutzt. Fähigkeiten, die dazu bestimmt sind zu lernen, ob dies nun beispielsweise Teil der motorischen oder der sexuellen Entwicklung ist, macht dabei keinen Unterschied. Die frühe Entwicklung eines Kindes lässt es nicht zu, dass Teilkomponenten, wie die sexuelle Entwicklung einfach ausgeklammert werden, sondern ich möchte die sexuelle Entwicklung als Teil der globalen frühkindlichen Entwicklung betrachten.

description: We compute the correlation functions of R-charge currents and components of the stress-energy tensor in the strongly coupled large-N finite-temperature N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, following a recently formulated Minkowskian AdS/CFT prescription. We observe that in the long-distance, low-frequency limit, such correlators have the form dictated by hydrodynamics. We deduce from the calculations the R-charge diffusion constant and the shear viscosity. The value for the latter is in agreement with an earlier calculation based on the Kubo formula and absorption by black branes.

Statistics of first-passage Brownian functionals

description: We study the distribution of first-passage functionals ${\cal A}= \int_0^{t_f} x^n(t)\, dt$, where $x(t)$ is a Brownian motion (with or without drift) with diffusion constant $D$, starting at $x_0>0$, and $t_f$ is the first-passage time to the origin. In the driftless case, we compute exactly, for all $n>-2$, the probability density $P_n(A|x_0)=\text{Prob}.(\mathcal{A}=A)$. This probability density has an essential singular tail as $A\to 0$ and a power-law tail $\sim A^{-(n+3)/(n+2)}$ as $A\to \infty$. The former is reproduced by the optimal fluctuation method (OFM), which also predicts the optimal paths of the conditioned process for small $A$. For the case with a drift toward the origin, where no exact solution is known for general $n>-1$, the OFM predicts the distribution tails. For $A\to 0$ it predicts the same essential singular tail as in the driftless case. For $A\to \infty$ it predicts a stretched exponential tail $-\ln P_n(A|x_0)\sim A^{1/(n+1)}$ for all $n>0$. In the limit of large Péclet number $\text{Pe}= μx_0/(2D)\gg 1$, where $μ$ is the drift velocity, the OFM predicts a large-deviation scaling for all $A$: $-\ln P_n(A|x_0)\simeq\text{Pe}\, Φ_n\left(z= A/\bar{A}\right)$, where $\bar{A}=x_0^{n+1}/{μ(n+1)}$ is the mean value of $\mathcal{A}$. We compute the rate function $Φ_n(z)$ analytically for all $n>-1$. For $n>0$ $Φ_n(z)$ is analytic for all $z$, but for $-10$ with the same $|μ|$.

description: Using information from the Economic Census, Motor Carrier Financial and Operating Statistics, and the Vehicle Inventory and Use Survey, trends are examined in specialization and in vehicle use in the truckload (TL) and less-than-truckload (LTL) segments of the for-hire trucking industry. The VIUS data show that capacity, output, and intensity of use vary significantly by segment. TL firms have almost three times as many large trucks as LTL firms and operate more than three times the annual total miles, a consequence of the fact that TL firms use their vehicles more intensely (mean annual miles) than LTL firms. This gap, however, closed slightly during the 1990s. Both types of operations shifted vehicles away from local toward long-haul service in the 1990s, but LTL, which is less specialized in this regard, shifted more sharply.
